What's up guys? I'm Brian. I'm Leanne. And we are The Literals. Welcome to our home and I hope you enjoy the tour. Let's get started. Backstreet Boy Brian Literal is an American singer and songwriter who's still living every day like it's the mid-90s and early 2000s. As one-fifth of arguably the most successful boy band of all time, Brian has earned himself a fortune over the years while attributing all of the success in his life to God. In fact, after going solo in 2006, Brian even reinvented himself as a contemporary Christian music artist. Also, Michael and I have dropped our own house tour of our new home that we moved into this year, so go ahead and subscribe to our personal channel if you want to see where we're living and more of what we're up to. In these videos, we don't reveal any addresses and even though I've done a house tour of my own place, please do not show up at any private residences because it's not safe for anyone. As a born-again Christian from the age 8, Brian's faith has always been central to his lifestyle and it's an attribute he shares with those closest to him, including his wife Leanne and his 19-year-old son Bailey. On the very year that his son was born in 2002, Brian and Leanne got ready for their little bundle of joy by scooping up their first family home, a $725,000 bungalow located in West Hollywood. Boasting a wooden gate and super tall hedges to keep out any potential prying eyes, Brian's Los Angeles home is kind of small and unassuming but it's got just enough space to park two cars on its cobblestone driveway next to a small patch of grass out front. Moving on to the interior, you'll discover a living room that includes a fireplace with a large mantle, hardwood floors and picture frame windows. As for the kitchen, it's got granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and all-white cabinets with silver details.  Wedged between the living room and kitchen is the home's dining space. With Brian's family being relatively small, he doesn't exactly have a gigantic table but there is a stunning chandelier hanging above it nonetheless. Moving further into Brian's family home, you'll discover Bailey's bedroom that's been painted in an eye-pleasing shade of blue and it boasted all that his son could want, fast cars, both plenty of toys and a few musical instruments. A short walk from there is the home's guest bedroom which is notable for the incredibly large painting hanging on the wall behind the bed as well as the chandelier dropping down from above. Then over in the master suite, Brian's mattress rests on a gigantic wooden frame and includes some nearby French doors that provide direct access to the backyard. As for his en suite bathroom, it features his and her sinks as well as a glass enclosed shower and is painted in the exact same shade of red as the bedroom. Wrapping things up out in the back, there's a little bit more grass but this one includes a huge palm tree situated right in the middle of it. There's also a fully loaded guest house for any visiting guests that Brian might have hosted during his time living here. Pretty modest home for a backstreet boy but you'll learn that it was just one of Brian's two homes and the second one is much larger. Brian would eventually sell this home in 2013 for a reported $1.14 million. At the time of the sale, his wife told TMZ that they were selling this residence due to a lack of use, probably because they were spending all of their time over in Atlanta, Georgia. Brian's west coast home might have been a little small but his east coast property is anything but. In fact, once you take a look at this place, you're gonna think it's straight out of gone with the wind because this 15,000 square foot palace not only has its own recording studio and tennis court, it's got a lake located on site as well. Originally boasting five bedrooms and seven bathrooms with over 39 acres of greenery, it was love at first sight when Brian and Leanne first spotted this $3.4 million home over 20 years back. And guess what? Then the home was much smaller than it is now, somewhere around 5,600 square feet. Brian and his wife originally fell for the home's timeless feel and its glamorous decor, all of which came included with the house when they bought it. Leanne explained to People Magazine, we bought it with amazing art and antiques when we got the keys. It was like, don't leave us with the babies. It was magnificent, but we were so scared. While that initial fear has fallen by the wayside now, over the past few decades, Brian and Leanne have totally reshaped their family residence by putting their own personal touches on every single room of the house, such as their chicly decorated piano room that has purple walls, gold curtains, hardwood floors, a stunning mantelpiece, and of course, an epic grand piano. A short walk from there is the home's lounge, probably the coziest area in the home, thanks in large part to those plush couches and a fireplace that's always ready for use. They also totally overhauled the kitchen with the installation of a gigantic pizza oven and bar seating with plush blue chairs, as well as matching colored cabinets. There are even light-up onyx countertops in here. And that's just the start.  There's not only a giant billiard table in here, but a poker table, blackjack table, wet bar, kitchenette, and television lounge as well. Talk about covering all of your entertainment bases. Furthermore, they added four bedrooms and five bathrooms to ensure that there's absolutely no shortage of space. But how about we talk about the one-of-a-kind rooms you won't find anywhere else, like Brian's indoor basketball court featuring the original flooring from Kentucky's historic Rupp Arena. Or how about the home's incredible recording studio where Brian and Bailey are often found cranking out the jams and inspiring one another's creativity. Speaking with People Magazine about his home, Brian told them about this space. It's one of the most creative spots. This is where all the ideas come from and we like to spend time as a family. Elsewhere on the property are two other decent-sized structures that act as a guest house for visitors and a pool house for utilities, as well as an outdoor-covered patio to ensure that the literals can take advantage of the outdoors, even when the weather isn't cooperating. Known for being big entertainers, the recent pandemic kind of threw a damper on the family's hosting activities. But in a way it could have been a blessing in disguise because before that, their neighbors had had more than enough of their get-togethers. A few years ago, Brian Littoral might have taken the lyrics to his hit song, I Want It That Way, a little too literally, when he got into a tiff with his fellow Georgia residents. Around 2019, the town of Milton began to complain to media outlets that the local celebrity was ruining the vibe of their quiet community by renting a nearby mansion known as the Freemanville Estate to host a number of very loud parties. These residents explained their concerns to Atlanta's Channel 2 news stating, It's quite a shock to see everything that's going on next door at this point. They're planning events, multiple events are on their site. Brian's neighbors had discovered a Facebook page that he created to advertise this residential space as a performance venue, even though he had been explicitly told that he couldn't do that. His neighbors continued to Channel 2. The city told him no one's on the event facility and then he went ahead and just did it. To make it clear, Brian doesn't own the property in question, although he apparently tried to pass it off like he did. And when he requested a special permit to host events here, the city of Milton shot him down. But Brian went ahead with his idea anyway. Once the neighbors reported him, Brian was in home water with local officials because the land the home is located on isn't properly zoned to host these large-scale parties. His neighbors also complained about the construction of a newly paved part of the property that was intended to be used as a helicopter landing pad. This part of the story, more than anything else upset people in the community, many of who raise and breed the horses that Milton is famous for. And horses get easily spooked by the noise of a helicopter. Others worried about the safety of their kids and some worry about both. Like this neighbor who explained their concerns to Channel 2. It's a liability for me because I have horses, I have children, children play on this property all the time and never in a million years thought I'd have to tell my kids watch out for helicopters. In response to these accusations, Brian would assure everyone that the recently paved area was only meant to increase parking and it will not be used as a helicopter landing spot. He also released a statement to the local press that read in part, the Littoral family has lived in Milton for over two decades and is fully committed to preserving its rich history. Any and all activities that have occurred at the Freemanville estate have been private gatherings consisting of the Littoral's friends and family. How many events the Littoral's ultimately ended up hosting out here is unknown. But Bailey once through a massive get together after releasing his single Don't Knock It at the age of 16, People Magazine was there to spotlight the celebration. Ultimately the Littoral's were never officially issued anything by Milton in the end and at least they can retreat to the relative safety of their nearly 40 acre estate because with a property that big they don't need to run into anyone they don't want to. Alright everyone that's going to bring this video to a close. Before you head out answer me this one question. Have you already lived in a house big enough to qualify as a palace?

Today, we're going to be covering the top 25 items that you should be dropshipping for winter 2024. Winter is here. Now, I know it might seem like this video is coming out a little bit late in the season, but did you know that winter is not necessarily during November or December? This should be interesting. It starts on December 21st and it ends on March 19th. Now, when I found that out, my mind was absolutely blown. For some reason, I grew up my entire life thinking that winter was in November or December, but I guess not. My whole life has been a lie. Whole life, I've been living a lie. But you know what's not a lie? All of the profits that these products can bring you this season. So let's go ahead and start the countdown. Now, all of these products were hand selected by expert dropshippers in the business, one of them being our man himself, Laurent Zablo. He's been in the business for quite a few years. I think it's maybe seven or eight years now. It's a long time. And he's always had a hand in helping pick these winning products. Now, all of these different products can also be found either in our Marketplace or our winning product section over at AutoDS.com. Over at AutoDS.com. Once you sign up, which by the way, if you haven't signed up yet, you can start your trial period right now for just one dollar. But once you sign up, you can head over to the winning product section over at AutoDS.com. And here you're going to find tons of different winning products. All of these are proven best sellers. These are all backed by years of data, are currently trending, and people are actually looking for these right now. And on top of that, once you click into one of these products, if you scroll down a little bit, you're going to have tons of different analytics that can really help you start to market these products. So you can start getting some sales and start making some money. So kicking off this list, the first item that we're going to talk about is going to be thermal coffee mugs. Now, these are literally everywhere, whether it be during the winter season or throughout the entire year. You're always going to find somebody with a thermal coffee mug in their hands, whether it be in the car on their way to work at work, sometimes even walking down the mall. We all know that people absolutely love their coffee. And a lot of people don't like cold coffee. So they always go with an insulated mug to help keep it warm, especially during the winter season. A lot of the parts in the US during the winter season are really, really cold, especially with all the snow that's going on. Not for me though, because I'm in South Florida, so it's kind of always sunny and hot here. But that doesn't really matter because at the end of the day, I still see people every single day on their way to work or at work, or again, just even walking down a store with their thermal mugs. So if this is something that you're selling right now, get to it. Now, checking out a few of the ones that they have here, you can see they have quite a few different styles. They have some with a few different types of designs, like this one right here. I actually think this one might be customizable. But aside from that, there's quite a few different types of styles, all fitting different demographics of people. And let's look at this one right here. This is actually the infamous Stanley mug. This has been an insane seller lately. Here, you can actually see that they're running for $17.49. Now, this is a branded item, so I don't really know how much you want to be offering this in your store. But as you can see, you can find something like this here for only $17.49. And these typically sell for about $30. As we always say though, stay away from branded items, go for something similar. So maybe something like this one right here. This has a similar look and feel, has a couple of different colors. And overall, it's also a lot cheaper, $1.15. Next up, help and keep people warm during the winter. We have an electric heated blanket. Sometimes these can come in some really small sizes. Typically, people use those for either some pain or discomfort, a lot of times in the back. But you can also find these in much bigger sizes that you can simply just cuddle up with in front of the movies during a cold winter night. So as you can see, they have quite a few different styles, a few different sizes. And they even have one here that's actually really cool. This is one that you can wear. This is interesting, I have not seen this before. And they even have some foot warmers, look at that. This is pretty cool because at the end of the day, you can offer all of these together as a set. Or whenever you go to pretty much anyone's website, you always see a frequently bought together. You can bundle these up, you can bundle them up under the frequently bought together tab. So that way people can see, I can stay warm pretty much from head to toe. Whether it be with a wearable blanket, a foot warmer, or an actual blanket itself, there's a bunch of different sets that you can offer for a wide demographic of people. Fuzzy socks are up next, help and keep people's feet warm. And again, these come in a few different variations. They come primarily in a few different designs. So as you can see here, they have some Christmas ones, then you have some that you can just use throughout the year.  Now fuzzy socks are one of those items that you can sell for pretty cheap, and they won't really make you a huge profit. But what you can do is you can offer these in sets. So you can offer them in sets of five, in sets of 10. So that way you can increase your average order value. You can either do all of them in the same design or have a multi-pack with different designs in them. It's so smart. Scarves are up next, and these primarily are all gonna be more or less the same, particularly in length. A lot of times there's gonna be some shorter ones, some medium ones, and some longer ones, but the main difference here is gonna be in the material.  So always make sure you offer all of these different materials because not everyone likes the same type of scarf.  Next up we have snow boots. Now, when it comes to snow boots, you need to be somewhat careful on who you advertise it to if you're advertising on Facebook ads. So take, for example, you're targeting the United States. You're not gonna wanna target the entire United States for the simple fact that it doesn't snow in every part of the US. Most of the times here in South Florida, these are not necessarily worn. A few people will have them primarily as fashion statements or whenever they go out to certain places. But typically speaking, you're not gonna see too many people wearing these out on the streets or out in the stores. For the most part, for these, you are gonna wanna target people more a bit up north. You are gonna wanna look for the colder states and the states that it actually snows in. Not the states like Florida, where it's pretty much summer year round. But to give you three different states that it is gonna be hot, for the majority of the time, California, Texas, and Florida. These three are pretty much summer all year round, with the exception of a few cities, primarily the ones that are more towards the North. Next up on number six, we have an item that is not necessarily for us humans. It's actually more for our furry friends. And that is a warm dog coat. Now, not all dogs are meant for the really cold conditions, especially with snow. So that's what these are for. And trust me when I say that people will not spare any expense with their dogs or their pets' comfort. People see their pets as their own kids, so they will not be shy about spending money on something like this. Next up, we have winter baby car seat covers. These are gonna help keep kids warm, whether it be in a car seat or a stroller. For the most part, what these are gonna be is simply just a cover. So as you can see here, it's a little cover that attaches to the top and just prevents any cold air from going through. A lot of the times, these aren't necessarily just used for cold air, though. Sometimes these are used to protect kids from the sun whenever it's too hot or too sunny outside. Next up, we have another somewhat region-specific item, and that is snowblowers. Now, snowblowers are gonna come in a few different sizes primarily, so the prices can range pretty wildly. They can start off within the low 100s and go anywhere up to the thousands. Now, snowblower, a lot of the times is gonna be best purchased at a place like either Walmart or Home Depot. The cool thing about these places is the fact that a lot of the times you're gonna find them on sale. So right now you can find this particular one for about $279 down from 500. So from here, you can make a fairly good profit simply by raising this up to $350 or even $400.  Now with a price match policy, what ends up happening is if you source this item today for those $500, let's say it's at original price, and tomorrow goes down to $250 for sale, then you can reach out to Walmart and they'll refund you back those $250. So right there you already have a pretty big profit to be made. Up next we have cozy sweaters. Now these are not just a winter item, these are pretty much used year round because people are typically gonna use these pretty much wherever they go if there's any sort of air or air conditioner or any sort of breeze. So a lot of times people buy these sweaters, they keep them in their closet or their drawers and they pull them out pretty much almost every single weekend. So this is an item that is not just good for winter, it's good for year round, especially with women. Women love to pair these different sweaters with their different outfits, whether it be for a casual day of fun or a fun night out. Next up at number 10 we have rain boots. Now you might be thinking rain boots during the winter, I thought it's supposed to be snowing. Well, yeah, that's true, but snow also tends to melt and that's when the streets start to get really soggy, really wet and full of different puddles. Not only that, but during the winter when there is snow, sometimes if it's not cold enough, if it's not just there, it will be raining rather than snowing, which is when people are gonna opt in for the rain boots rather than the snow boots. One quick tip that I'm gonna give you when it comes to offering rain boots or snow boots is gonna be to offer a set or to offer a promotion. So you can do something like a buy one get one, you can do maybe buy one get one half off, buy one get one 25% off, where somebody can purchase snow boots and get their rain boots at a discounted rate or vice versa. Unisex beanies are up next and that means they're either for both men or women. Now when it comes to beanies, I absolutely love them. I've always loved the style, I love how they look, but unfortunately due to my oddly shaped head, they don't necessarily fit me the way that I would like them to. It looks really weird. So instead of being able to wear them myself, I would rather just sell them. Now when it comes to beanies, they have a few different styles. They have some like this, which are the more hipster style. They have a few other ones, which are the classic ones like this. Of course, you're always gonna find some with a few different designs, a few different sayings like this one right here or the Spiderman ones, which as we all know, Spiderman is branded and it's trademarked. So we wanna stay away from this. But if you look over to the right, you have a pretty uniquely styled one. This is like an oversized beanie. This is something that I haven't seen before and could potentially do pretty well. Now, a beanie is the perfect pairing for our next item. And that are gloves, but not only just a regular glove, make sure that they're touch screen gloves.  No, I'm just kidding. They're just gonna get really cold. But people don't really like that. People prefer to keep their gloves on, especially if it's freezing outside or if it's snowing. So quick tip, if you're offering gloves, make sure they're touch screen friendly or just simply touch screen gloves. But gloves are the perfect addition or the perfect pairing to go with a beanie. You can either offer these as a set, as you can see right here in AliExpress sellers already doing that, or you can offer them in the form of an offer, like I mentioned earlier. Buy one, get one free, buy one, get one at a discount, things like that. Now, next up, we have one item that is truly extremely adorable. I bought one of these from my first son quite a while back. And honestly, when you put it on them, it looks cute. It looks fantastic. You just really want to grab the kid and just grrr. But I'm talking about newborn baby bear onesies. These are one of the more popular types of onesies that there are, especially during the winter months, because they really help keep the kids warm. Now, you don't necessarily have to opt in for a bear onesie. You can also find a few other ones. You can find a bear, you can find a tiger, giraffe, elephant, whatever type of animal it may be. Just make sure that it's a cute animal onesie. Primarily though, the most popular one is going to be a bear. Now, the variations on these can also range aside from the style and the look or the type of animal that it is. Another thing that really ranges a lot when it comes to kids' products is sizes. So you're going to have sizes from newborn all the way up to toddlers, maybe two, three, four, or even five years old. Now, because kids also range in sizes, you're going to have some newborns that are pretty big or some older kids that are pretty small. It's always best to offer some sort of sizing chart. So make sure that you have a sizing chart on your website or in your pictures. So that way, parents can make sure that they're choosing the right sizes for their kids. Now, up next, we have thermal clothing. These can be both for men and women, as well as kids, and what these are are simply just insulated pieces of clothing. So these are going to be different shirts, different pants, different socks that are made out of a special material that helps insulate the warmth. So it can help keep you warm throughout the winter weeks. Now, these in combination with either a sweater, another pair of pants, or a scarf can really help keep people warm, especially in the snowy places. So one really good tip that I can give you when you're offering these types of pieces is if you're offering a sweater or if you're offering a scarf, again, offer this as part of a set. Offer it as a buy one, get one offer. Mention that this item, along with one of the others, is a frequently bought together. It will increase your average order value. Coming up next, we have an electric soup maker. Now, this is actually kind of a unique one because I haven't necessarily seen an electric soup maker. Although these can kind of double as a rice maker, but for the sake of this video, it's going to be an electric soup maker because that's the way that you're going to market it. You can market this in a way where it's going to make you some nice warm soup to keep you warm throughout the holiday night, throughout the winter nights, or winter weeks. Now, the good thing about this is the fact that it's not necessarily a big bulky appliance or item for that matter. This is something that even college students can use in their dorm rooms. Speaking of cold nights, we all know that during winter, a lot of places are going to have some pretty cold nights as well as days. In which case, you're going to want a personal heater. Now, back in my day, personal heaters used to be like this. They were pretty much just like this. It was one little unit, and it would warm up the air around you. For the most part, I would have one in the office I used to work at, and it really helped keep me warm in my little closet space because I used to work IT and they used to keep us in the little corner all the way at the edge of the building. And of course, like every other IT office, it was freezing cold. So I always had one of these to help me stay warm. But nowadays, they have some different and more high-tech ones. When I look at these, I'm like, whoa, what is this? For example, they have these neck heaters. Now, during the pandemic, there was this huge boom of portable neck air blowers for some reason. I guess because people probably thought it would blow away the germs or something. I don't know. But that's when these started to make an appearance. So little by little, I started seeing these start to evolve. And now they even have these portable neck heaters. So even if you're in an airplane and you're cold, you can wear one of these and they'll start to warm you up. And on top of that, they also have hand warmer power banks. These are crazy. These are items that I've never in my life seen before. These are new up-and-coming products. So if you haven't looked into these yet, I highly suggest you do. You could be the first to start a trend. But aside from that, as you can see, heaters do come in quite the few different varieties. Now, this next one is one that you probably would not have expected. And this is actually a supplement. So the next one is vitamin D. Now, our bodies primarily get vitamin D from the sun, but in certain parts of the country or in certain parts of the world, there's not as much sun during the winter time. So because of that, vitamin D supplements are extremely popular and very lucrative during this particular time of the year. Now, when it comes to vitamin D, there are going to be a few different options to choose from. My recommendation, stick to vitamin D for adults. And if you have the option to and it's safe enough for you and you're comfortable with selling it, you can also offer vitamin D supplements for kids. Of course, when it comes to the vitamin D supplements for kids, always make sure that your supplier is one, reputable. Two, they have a high quality products. And three, they are all safe for consumption. Three in one animal hats are up next. And these are quite the unique item. These are some that are fairly new, especially in the scene. This is a new type of product that lately has been starting to make waves in the past few years. And what this is, is simply just a hat with gloves. That's literally all it is. It's a little hat, typically going to be in the shape or form of an animal. And it's going to have some really long ears, which are going to double as some sort of earmuffs. These are unique. These are different. These are fun. Kids absolutely love these. And not just kids, adults too. So I'll check this one out. This one's actually a bit more unique than the rest, primarily because it has built-in lights. This is actually really cool. This is something that you're going to see a lot if you watch streams. So if you watch people on Twitch, maybe they stream video games, you're going to see a lot of things that are colored like this, a lot of RGB lights. So remember how one of the last items we mentioned were rain boots? Well, this next one is the perfect addition to those rain boots. And that is a rain coat. Now, like I mentioned earlier, during the winter seasons, a lot of places where it does snow, it's also going to rain. And because of that, a rain boat and rain boots could potentially be essential. Of course, this really depends on the area that the person is living in. But when you're selling rain boots, always make sure to offer it as a set with a rain coat. Now, it's no secret that during the winter months, one thing that comes along with it tends to be dry skin. And because of that, you always want to make sure that you also offer dry skin moisturizer. Now, this can come in a few different types. Some are going to be for moisturizing hands. Some are going to be more for chapped lips. But at the end of the day, during the winter times, people are going to be looking for moisturizer. Again, it doesn't really matter if it's going to be for your lips, for your hands, for your face, for your body, whatever it is, try to offer these different variations for specific body parts, or also try to offer more generic moisturizing cream that you can advertise for the entire body. Now, I don't know about you, but a lot of the times, whenever you're outside playing, playing, right? I don't know why, just completely thought about playing, but when you're outside playing in the rain, I guess my mind just went back a few years, quite a few years, a few decades actually. Me? Back in my day? I don't know about you, but when it comes to having wet shoes, it's really uncomfortable. Now, during the winter months, like I said earlier, it does tend to snow, and it tends to rain. Snow turns into water, and what ends up happening is your shoes get soaked, and that becomes very, very uncomfortable. Now, back in my day, one trick used to be to just simply put your shoes by the fridge, and the little bit of air that came out would dry them. But now, they have actual shoe dryers. These shoe dryers literally just stick into your shoes, leave them on overnight, and when you wake up, they're going to be completely dry, and even warm. As you can see, they come in a few different options, but for the most part, they are going to come in a set of two, which makes sense, because you wear two shoes. Now, they do have a few different variations. They have some corded ones that you just move around, or they also have some that you just simply put your shoes on top of, regardless of which ones you decide to offer. This one's actually really cool. It's like the little air blowers. Anyway, regardless of whichever ones you decide to offer, these are a great addition to any store during the winter months. Knee high boot socks are up next, and these are typically going to be more popular amongst women, but these are also going to be a very popular Christmas gift. So if you're offering these in December, you can possibly expect to see a pretty big surge in selling some of these right before Christmas time. But aside from that, during the winter months, these are also something that are very highly in demand because they are going to help keep people's legs warm. Now during the winter seasons, people do tend to spend more time indoors than they would typically outside, especially in times of snow and rain. So because of this, a lot of people are going to end up watching TV most of the time, but there's a lot of people that don't want to spend hours upon hours, either on their phones, scrolling through TikTok, or just mindlessly watching TV. So because of that, during the winter seasons, books have seen a huge surge in sales. Again, people like to stay home, they don't necessarily want to watch TV all day, so they opt in for something a bit more productive and keep their minds busy, healthy and active. Now if you don't really know which books that you want to dropship, then simply go on TikTok. Lately, my wife has actually been going on TikTok for different book recommendations. It's crazy how much stuff and how much information you can find on TikTok, like you can literally find anything on there. It's the next YouTube university, except in short clips. So pretty much all you have to do is just go on over to the search bar. I'm going to do this on the PC, but you can do this through the phone or through the computer as well. But all you have to do is simply go on the search bar, type in hashtag books, or just simply look for books recommendations. But either one that you go with, just start looking through some of the different videos that there are, and you're going to start seeing people recommending different books. So a few different hashtags that you can look for are going to be hashtag books, hashtag books to read. You can also do hashtag book recommendations, and there's a lot more of the hashtags that you can start looking through to find what people are recommending and what people are reading. But realistically speaking, when it comes to books, there's a lot of niches. There's tons of different niches that are huge, and not all of them are necessarily on TikTok. Not everyone is recommending them. So if you have personal experience in the book section, if there's a particular book that you like, you can recommend that as well. You can maybe get on TikTok, make some videos around it, and link it to your drop shipping website. Next up at 24, we have earmuffs. Now earmuffs can be pretty cool because these can either be simple earmuffs that you can offer at a pretty cheap price, or you can offer earmuffs that also double as headphones. So for these, you're going to find quite a few different variations. They typically are going to come in a few different types of styles, but for the most part, they are going to be pretty oversized. They're going to be fuzzy, and most of the times, they're primarily going to be to just help keep people warm. But again, you can always offer a variation that has built-in speakers or simply some that have different designs, you know, some cute little animals because for the most part, girls are going to be the ones that wear these. So you have some here that are like little cat ears or some unicorn ears. Now, there are a few others that are a bit more gender neutral and some that are simply just for guys. For those, you can simply keep scrolling and you're going to find some more basic ones like these. And last but certainly not least, we have a sinus relief mask. Now, this is one that I could probably use you around because I have sinuses. I have sinus issues. I have allergies all the time. Sometimes in these videos, you might even hear my nose stuff. That's crazy. But aside from that, these for the most part are going to work with either some sort of cold or hot therapy. It's supposed to help clear up your nostrils, especially during the winter months when the cold air can really start to affect your nose, start to give you headaches, and it's really just breathing all that cold air and that can start causing a few problems. And this helps with relieving that. And that brings us to the end of today's dropshipping video. Huge thank you, Tara, for watching, especially if you made it all the way to the end. It truly does mean a lot. Once again, as always, my name is Mario without a DS. I'm going to catch you all next time.


Does he have any other bird friends that he likes? Good job. Fliders, sniffers, and hatchlings. My name is Marlene McCohen. Welcome to my channel. This is my brother, Danny. And this is our bird tie. And today, this video is going to be all about tie and answering your questions about tie, including talking about his plucking, which is a pretty good subject to get on. But before we go on, I want to give some shout outs to my Fliders Club. Annie Bates, Stacey Bacon, and Diane Brunick. Thank you guys so much for being a part of my Fliders Club. Okay, obviously I had to have my brother in this video because tie, although he started off as the family bird, this is now tie's daddy. What is the story of tie? You want to tell them the story of like the day that we got tie? Before you even tell that, the first thing I remember the night before is crowding around dad going like, we cannot live without a bird right now. One day we all ganged up on my dad, me, Jenna, and Marlene. And we all kind of told him like, hey, you know, we had the experience of living with a bird. We miss it. We need another one. Is there anyway? We would prefer a bird exactly like the one we had. But at this point, we were desperate. We would, you know, we'll take anything, you know? Because we had Duffy.  The reason we couldn't bring Duffy with us was because to leave the country, then the bird would have had to be in quarantine. And my dad did not want that because it was like a six month quarantine and you don't know where the birds are or what they do. So he thought it would be better for the bird psyche. And since, because that's like uncharted territory, we didn't know if he just went to another bird lover because we knew we weren't moving back. And he lived, the guy lived in a penthouse overlooking the beach. I had a little African gray sitting with him and very content, very happy, very beautiful upscale home. Couldn't have passed him on to somebody better. Do you remember like the last day you saw Duffy? Because I thought of that today, like I wasn't living there anymore. So I didn't know because I would imagine like the last day saying goodbye would be like. Yeah, I think I was also either away or something. And then I don't think I got to say goodbye. So I'd come back and every time I would go back and visit, I would go see him. I would call the guy, but I think can I come see the bird? The next day, it felt like the next thing. I feel like the next day that like after we ganged up on dad, after we ganged up on dad, it was pretty much the next day. And I think we ganged up at a hotel in San Antonio or something like that. And I remember one of the events was at a hotel. We realized that we were really close to getting a yes. So when we got back home, I think the same week or maybe within the same month, we ganged up on him again, me, Jenna and Marlene. And we told him everything. He says, okay, I'll look for a bird. And I think the next day was a Sunday because us annoying our dad about the bird, getting another bird was late, late night, I remember. Yeah, it was late night. It was very late. And then Sunday morning, wakes us up, I remember and says, Hey, I found a bird and he lives on a farm. Yeah, but remember being you were on a photo shoot? We're like modeling on a photo shoot. You remember that part like on the railroad tracks? Yeah, I don't think I was modeling. I think you were not. I think I just drove. You drove. You were supposed to be there's pictures. I have picture evidence. I will find it anyway. So we all hopped in the car. We got there. We saw Ty and Ty wasn't as kind as he is right now. So Ty, you could maybe pet him for three seconds, four seconds. And then he'd kind of tell you like, Hey, get off me. You know, don't touch me anymore. He'd kind of go towards you while we were there. The lady told me and everybody that, Hey, we can't hold Ty because Ty will bite. And if he bites, it hurts really bad. She says, if you do buy the bird, as soon as you leave this property, you can hold him. You can do whatever you want with him. But, you know, she's like, he needs a lot of work. And at the time, you know, we didn't know much. So she just held him and we all just sat in awe, watching her hold the bird. And she could even tell that she was like, Oh, he's coming to me and she was scared. Yeah, she was scared. She was holding him on her forearm right here. You remember that time. And she had pretty much explained to us the backstory of Ty. Ty was, I think, nine at the time or seven at the time when we got him. They bought him for a 12 year old girl. Ty fell in love with this girl. They were best friends. Ty, she could essentially do anything she wanted to Ty. And we never got to meet this girl. And essentially she grew up, 18, 19. She met a young fella. They got together, got married, and Ty was very jealous. So he would try and attack the gentlemen all the time. They couldn't deal with it anymore. So when she moved out and moved in with him, she left Ty with the parents. The parents lived on a farm with horses and chickens. So Ty still till today will do chicken noises, horse noises every now and then. We'll do that sometimes. He does bark like a dog. By the way, funny story. When we walked in, all their furniture was chewed up and my mom was like, How did the bird do this? Cause she was like, oh my God. And you guys know that we weren't new to lesser sulfur crested cockatoos. Duffy was a lesser sulfur crested. My mom knew that like Duffy had pulled out. You guys remember the story of the entire socket and everything. But I think one of the like cutest things was to remember when we left, Ty was in the car and just, it was like, bye-bye, bye-bye. He was like, peace out. I'm leaving you guys. That just goes to show to like, you know, there's life changes. Like that girl like loved the bird, but like what happened? You got like a husband. Like, I mean, Danny and I, like what would you have done if CEO didn't like birds? She didn't, she didn't like dogs. And then what? I really want to go close to Ty too much, but CEO came into the story much later. There's a lot before CEO came into the thing. Like, first of all, once they agreed on the price and I was like, oh, this bird actually might be mine. And the lady was holding him and she told us that none of us could hold him. I just walked right up to Ty. I put my forearm next to hers and Ty just stepped up and she was in shock.  You know, he might bite you and I just kind of took her. I was like, let me get away from this lady because she might be making the bird tense. So I went over and I took him to my side. I put him in the car and he just sat with me and then they loaded everything up and we essentially got home and Ty, you could not pet him for more than five seconds. He would not let you touch him. He would not let you. He would kind of move away or take his beak and move your finger away and he had plucked all around here. I think within three months of us having him, it all grew back. But every year, let's say we adopted him in March. Every year around March, he would pluck here again. Oh my God. Yeah, and that went on for five years. He would, every year, he would pluck here once and then it would grow back and then he would pluck next year and grow back and then it just stopped after about five, six years. He completely stopped doing it until probably two, three months ago. Sio got sick for two days. Those two nights that Sio was sick, both nights he plucked his feathers. So Ty, we couldn't really touch him versus today where you can kiss him and cuddle. What we did was we would give him his favorite treats, let him eat it. While he was eating it, we would pet him. He would enjoy his treats so much that he wouldn't focus so much on that somebody's touching him and then he'd pet him, he'd pet him, he'd pet him. And once he was done with his food, he'd kind of come back to normal and then see that you're petting him and then he'd be like, hey, get away. And then he'd tell you again to shoo away. We did this over and over and over and over and over and over again. I would probably say I've been bit, probably 30 to 50 times from Ty. I mean like bad bites. Every year that went by, I would get a bit less and less and less. So I would say in the first year, I probably got bit like nine times once a month. I remember it was once a month for like a good two and a half years. I would get a good bite. What made you, like a lot of people give up on cockatoos to them very unpredictable? And so what made you like not be afraid to keep going with the bird? So the bird has emotions too and I would have to say that when I would first get that bite, it would hurt, it would bleed, it would hurt for a couple of days. But as soon as Ty would bite me, he would run back to his cage and he would stay in there for two to three days and wouldn't come out. So I realized that he felt bad that he made a mistake. I wasn't so much pain. I didn't want to go close to him. But then I realized that he would not come out of the cage unless we worked it out. You know, if I came back to the cage and said Ty, you know, come to me, come out. He wouldn't come out of the cage for me. I would have to kind of hover around the cage, let him climb out himself. A lot of times I would use his treats, put him on top of the cage so he would come out. When he would come out, he'd start the whole process all over again.  He didn't want to come down from a certain area that he was sitting. He didn't want to stop doing what he was doing. So then I realized, okay, this bird has a mind of his own and there's going to be times where he's going to tell me, hey, I don't want to go that way. I don't want to do that. And his way of telling you is like biting. I said, so I got to be more careful and see if he wants to flow with me on where I'm going and I need to teach him at the same time that he can't bite. You can see how you can hold tie, no fear of being bit. It was definitely worth all the bites. So do you think you would say that like those 50 bites were all a learning curve of you understanding his behavior and what bothers him and then once you figured that out because you took the time to analyze it, you didn't get bit anymore. Yeah, didn't really get bit that much anymore. We do get bit every now and then when we go away. Luckily enough, last time I went away for three weeks, I didn't get bit. But when I moved here, I pulled out the suitcase and Ty would not stop trying to attack me. He kept flying to me. He put holes in my shirt. He kept trying to bite me. I mean, he would not stop and he didn't know he was coming in.  Sio had to hold him down and he was like, no, you're not leaving. You're not going anywhere. Lately, after he did that plucking and Sio got sick, we're finally at the stage where it's growing back. It's probably about 30% back. It did get a little worse when he came here. When he came here, he moved here. He had a little bit of a transition and he bit a little bit more on the sides, but now he's got some feathers coming back in, some big, beautiful feathers. Yeah. When I met Sio Mara and maybe they looked alike as that girl that first owned him, I don't know. But Ty took to Sio right away, but Sio didn't really want him around. She was like, I'm scared. I'm this, I'm that. Don't put him on me. Don't put him next to me. I'm scared only if you're close.  She liked it. She would wake up and say, oh, I'm going to... That was so nice. He was walking up and down my back. It felt like I had good company and that's how it slowly, slowly started. I think probably a week... It took her about three weeks to a month from the day that she met Ty for them to become really good friends. Within, I think, 10 days started holding him on her hand, not really letting him go on her shoulder because she was a little bit scared. And then the first time that he went on her shoulder, it was something amazing. This is a sad story, but it was pretty cool. He bit her, but he didn't bite her like he bites me where it's a snap and then he hangs on as hard as he can and he squeezes really, really hard and then he lets go. He put both his top beak and his bottom beak on her cheek and started just squeezing. A little bit harder, a little bit harder, a little bit harder and he left it on there for a while. And I was about 20 feet away from her when I saw it happening, but I was like, oh my God, he's not really biting her. He's like kind of like almost pinching her skin. And I think that was the bite where he told her like, hey, you left. Where did you go? So this is for leaving. He drew a little bit of blood on her. She was crying and I got, I grabbed the bird and then she's crying. She's like, oh my God, he bit me. And then she was like, yeah, but it was really weird, you know, after she calmed down, she said he didn't really bite me. He kind of just put his thing right there and then just pushed harder, harder, harder, harder. And I saw it and I was like really thought to myself like he's not, he's biting her, but he's not doing the whole, you know, like the bites that I've gotten have been 10 out of 10s. What she got was like a little, I guess slap on the wrist, I would call it. But how did she, like what?  That wasn't so bad. Like, like, let's be flit. Like that's a, for someone that's not even, wasn't even into animals. That's like a level of understanding that you must have communicated to her.  And since then it's been probably 11 years and he has never, ever bit her, never tried to bite her. She can do, she can flip the bird upside down. She can tell him to fly to him. She can cuddle with him, hug him, hide him under her shirt, hide him under the pillows, under the blankets. And this bird just loves being with her. Will never bite her. If I sometimes try and take him away from her, he probably will not go. When he's with her, I'm not allowed to be around. I can't sit next to them. If they're laying on the bed, I can't lay on the bed. He gets very jealous. Kind of forgets that he's my bird, essentially was my bird. I say Ty is C.O.M.A.R.O.'s boyfriend, literally. They love each other a lot. Ty is eager to be with her every minute he can. He loves looking at her. And then he just loves to see her and look at her and be with her. That's how cockatoos are. People don't understand that you got to put in the work to like understand and like forgive and get over and move on and take everybody does like, what did I learn from that behavior? A lot of people are afraid of cockatoos because they consider them unpredictable. But like after a while, you can almost tell almost anything that they're going to do like in what you did to annoy them, you know? Yeah. And since he's been plucking just so you know, when I come home, when I wake up a little bit early with him, usually when I can, and I spend time with him before I go to work, then I feed him, I put him outside. And as soon as I come home from work, I know the first thing I do is I grab him and he's with me until the minute he goes to bed. Just so if it's caused, if his plucking was caused by any type of neglect, I'm kind of showing him that he's the most important thing until maybe it'll build back some of his confidence and making sure he's eating right. So make sure you get the bird seed because Ty would never eat bird seed until he got Marlene McCohen's signature blend. Oh yeah. He gets obsessed with the bag. He's obsessed with the bag. He'll jump on the bag. When we order it from the website, when it comes in, Ty knows it's for him. He's automatically latching onto the bag. Doesn't want to let anybody open it. Sticking his head in, walking into the bag. He knows it's for him. He loves rice. So we would always have to have something for him. What time is it, Ty Ty? Yeah, 10 o'clock every night. He says time for bed. What time is it, Ty? It's the day we got him. 10 o'clock. People asked about that. A lot of the things that they asked about, we've covered. But if you want to ask the straight out question, I'm going to ask you some questions. Liv Larson, how long have you had him? I think 16 years or something like that? 17 years. Very scary owning a bird for 17 years because if he's not with you, it's like something's missing. I know. So if he's not in the room with me, not in the home with me, that's not where the house feels empty. We've been together for a very long time. Yeah, that's how it should be. Optimus Crystal, what's his favorite song or genre of music? The only thing I could say is he loves pure talent. So he was a big fan of like old school, like Elvis. Madonna, Michael Jackson. He is very in tune with I guess the greats. I've had a preference of electronic music. So he grew to love that. Latin music. He grew to love that. He really loves Latin music. He really loves that music. But I've never seen him sing as much as he sings during an Elvis song. Michael Jackson. And I think that that genre from Elvis' ears because it's slower music, it's more what's it called. He can actually kind of catch on to the beat and the lyrics and kind of sing with it. Megs5555 says can Ty fly? Ty can fly. If I am on the bed and Ty can see me, Ty will fly to the bed to be with me. If he gets scared, he will fly. Most occasions, he will climb down from wherever he is and he will walk wherever he needs to go. Very strange. When I first got him, we got over the hump of him biting me all the time and we were able to pet him and we really bonded. I could tell Ty to fly to me and he would fly to me. How did you all come up with the name Ty? Moose and Olive. Yeah, I should ask you the same thing about your name. Moose and Olive. Why don't you get your name? So Ty, when we got him, his name was Ty, but it was T-Y-E and the plan was to change his name. But then we realized when he says, Ty, Ty, time for bed. Ty's a pretty little birdie. We can't really change his name. And he was, he wasn't like, he was a puppy, you know, nine months old or something like that. He was like, seven, you know, so we couldn't just name him Rick or something, you know? Like you call him Rick, he'd be like, you, me? I'm Ty. So the only thing we did was we changed the spelling, T-H-A-I. So we can't change the name, but we can change the spelling to make him more towards us.  And I wanted to bond with him in a way to say he's mine, but I didn't want to disrupt all of his greatness, you know that he had. He can say, time for bed, Ty's a pretty little birdie. Ty's a little baby. Ty's a little baby birdie. Yeah. Mikey's a bad, bad dog. Mikey, come here. Lucky, because of our dog Lucky that he used to have. Danny. Yeah. Says Danny. Time for bed, Danny. I swear he says something about going to the bathroom. Yeah, like I go to the bathroom. Yeah. The other day he said, oh, I know the alphabet. And I was like, oh, he says yabba-dabba-doo. Yeah. He says a lot of yabba-dabba-doo. Yabba-dabba-doo. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. He knows how to say, bye-bye. Did he say hello? Oh, and if he sees pretty women, he'll go, Oh yeah. Yeah. He talks a lot for a cockatoo actually. Yeah. What are you chewing? So a lot of people are asking is Ty a rescue? Well, he's definitely a re-home, like, time for bed. How did he learn to go to bed? He came like that. Ty, when we first got him, all of a sudden at 10 o'clock at night, just kind of looked at us and was like, time for bed. Time for bed. And we were like, we need to go to bed or you need to go to bed. And he's like, time for bed, Ty. Time for bed, Ty.  So we tried to cover him. I think his cage was like in the kitchen and we tried to cover him and when we put him in the cage and we covered him and we, you know, we all sat around. We're still talking. And Ty was like, time for bed, time for bed, time for bed now. And we realized he wouldn't stop screaming. We couldn't understand what it was. So we took him and we put him in a bedroom.  And once we shut the door, that was it. He just went straight to bed, didn't say anything, didn't say time for bed, didn't scream, nothing. I mean, nothing. And then we realized, okay, Ty will only go to bed in a dark room where there's no noise. When he goes to bed, you can't be in there and turn on a light. You can't even turn on the hallway light outside the bedroom. You can't even walk in our yelze. He was like, time for bed. Has Ty ever had any incidents where he had to go to the vet? No incidents where he's had to go to the vet. He's been pretty healthy, well maintained. Mrs. Howard is very concerned with whose bird Ty is. I thought Ty was your brother's bird. But you said in a video, he's yours. Who is he? The mystery. If Ty is your bird, then why did he live with your brother? Will you give Ty to your brother? Ty is the family bird, but he's their bird now because Ty has spent the last 15 years with Danny. So Ty is Danny and see those bird. But with us, like all our animals are our animals, you know? Yeah. When we first got Ty, we all, me, Marlene and Jenna all lived under the same roof. So we would literally argue over whose turn it is to play with Ty. Then Marlene moved away first. I moved away second. And then as much as I wanted to take Ty to the house that I moved in, my dad would not let me. He was like, no, this bird needs to be around three or four people all the time. Always socializing.  This bird needs to be with somebody all the time. My dad was like, I need to make him breakfast. I need him to be there when I'm with him. I like sitting at him. I like watching him. I like seeing him. Oh, I got a question from XXLoka. How did Ty get TikTok famous? Well, we took him to Austin. And we filmed the whole trip to Austin. We filmed him getting walking and telling him that we're leaving and we just opened the front door and he climbed down from the chair he was on. We caught him on video. He walked all the way outside. He climbed into the car by himself. Mikey was already there in the car. We left the house. We just started filming. I was like, hey, you know what would be cool? Let's go into Walmart and take Ty with us. We took Ty in there. Ty chose a bunch of essential items we needed. Scanned him out. And then I think we kind of made videos on the way to Austin. A few months later, I think a month later, after not really paying attention to it, we came back and there was almost like 160. No, there was like 160, 170,000 views on the video and Ty had good 10,000 fans. So then we said, hey, Ty's got something going for him. So ever since then, we've just been posting videos and I think today we're close to 20,000 followers. Yay. We put up some good bird content at Ty's Crazy Land. Ty's Crazy Land, T-H-A-I-Z Crazy Land, all one. We do a lot of challenges. You get to see behind the scenes of what it's like living with. I'll be cockatoo. Jane Oo says, how loud is Ty? Ty is very loud. He's the loudest bird. Ty is the loudness of when you get in your car and you forgot that when you got out last time, your speakers were blasting. So when you get in and you turn on your car and your speakers are at full volume and you get that like, uh, uh, uh, that's how loud Ty is. Does he have any other bird friends that he likes? Good job. Finchy just left. Did you even notice Finchy was in here the whole time? No, just when he started flying. We have some people from Marlene's group. I'd like to shout out to Trevor and Lucy. Oh, Trevor. I love Lucy. Yeah. Um, Trevor, we met him at a meet and greet. We fell in love with his bird, Lucy, and we kind of tried to steal it. I'm just kidding. A few times we've tried to steal Lucy. We have another family that we all babysit for each other. You're like the babysitter's club. So we watch a lot of birds and when we go away, we have great people that watch our birds. That happened from our meet and greet. Yeah. So sometimes if you do if Marlene hosts a meet and greet in your area and you don't want to board your birds somewhere when you go away or when you travel, it's good to come to those events, socialize with the people, find out where they live. These are usually bird experts. And the trick is you offer to watch their bird first. Like, hey, if you ever go away, I'll watch your bird. And then they're obligated. They're obligated. Right?  That's when you hit them with the dates and the time and ask which bird to drop them off. Just like that. We should do a video on that. How to get people to watch your birds because people ask me, like, what do you do with your birds? And it's like, we always have really good people. Can I just give a shout out to Candy? Yeah. Because she's watched Ty many times. We love the Candy. We should do another get together. It's always tons of fun. And she's got a beautiful array of exotic birds. It's so much fun going to her house. All her birds are super friendly. And they're super engaged, not cave. What else do you want to say about Ty? Anything else you want to say? Very smart bird. Always watching. It's like having a surveillance camera in your house. What's Ty's personality like? Ty is a boy. I didn't know if he was a boy when I got him. I had him DNA tested.  We originally thought it was a girl and he's had nick names throughout his whole period with it. We used to call him Gucci Moodoo. Yeah, Gucci Moodoo. Yeah, Gucci Moodoo. Then it went to like Moodoo. It went to Chucharito. Chucharito? Yeah, I used to call him Chucharito for a while. One of his first nick's name was Fatso because I was in shock how much this bird could eat. I was like, oh my God, this bird can eat so much. I came to the conclusion that if you took everything that a bird ate in a day and put it on the side, it'd probably be a mass bigger than the bird himself. Oh, yeah. So I called him Fatso. This bird is so fat. But when Cio Mara came into my life, I realized that Ty cannot say Cio Mara. He can't. He can't say S. He can't say Cio. So I knew he knew how to say Fatso or was learning how to say Fatso. So I changed Cio's name to Fatso. Yeah. So now Cio's like, why are you calling me Fatso?  I would say because Ty can't say your name. So we're going to have to nickname you something that he's used to. So one day when Cio was in the shower, I was down in the bed and I would just call and I was like Fatso, Fatso and she would say what? And I wait and then I go Fatso and she go what? And then she came out of the shower screaming why do you keep calling me? I keep responding you're not saying anything. And then Ty just looks in and goes Fatso. And I'm like, I think you learn how to say your name now. So we actually changed Cio's name to Fatso. And over time now we call Ty Chuch for short and he responds to his nicknames. Oh, you're so cute. But anything else you want to say about Ty? He smells really good. Oh yeah. He showers with me. He eats with me. Loves a lot of Cio Mara's healthy cooking. He loves to be a part of things. He loves to always be watching. He loves dad. Cockatoo is much more content if he's watching things that are happening. A cockatoo will be better behaved if you're working in a room and you take him and put him in an area where he can see what you're doing. My experience has been once I take the cockatoo and put him in a different room because I want quiet where I am in this room. He's over there wondering, Hey, what are you doing? Hey, whoa, wow, because you can't tell what's going on. So you're like, Oh, I don't want a burden here because he's not going to be quiet. Actually, if you go and you put him somewhere else, they kind of feel neglected. Cockatoo's are very emotional and then you're like, How come you're not taking me? How come I'm not with you? How come I'm not this? How come I'm not that? So you're better off just taking him and putting him somewhere where he can be by himself not really climb down or climb up. Usually they're very content. So if the gardener is trimming some trees in the backyard and you have a cage out there or something like that or somebody's cleaning the pool, Ty would love to just go watch when they were building up something in my backyard, Ty was out there for the three weeks they were building and he just love watching people work doing stuff. They like to be entertained, you know? Yeah, they're like human behavior analysts. Yes. Yeah. And he was very smart and you guys take him everywhere.  They take him everywhere. Like follow the TikTok. They take him everywhere. I don't even know like this bird goes like to the beach. They take him to the parks. They travel with him. Oh, he goes on a walk every day with, with Mikey probably twice a day. I took him for a walk with Sandy today. When Mikey goes to the park, Ty comes to the park. We don't take him to restaurants. We took him to Austin and he went bar hopping with us and all of a sudden there's a rumor floating around Sixth Street over there that there's a white bird on the streets and roaming around you have to get a picture with him. You have to this and then people would come up to us when they would see Ty and we're like, oh my God, I heard there was a bird on Sixth Street but I thought the person was lying to me. I thought it was a rumor. I thought it was a hoax. I can't believe it. And we had people gather around. We got free food from bars.  We got free pizza. People were just entertained and a lot of live music in Austin and Ty would dance when he would hear the live music so he would be the most entertaining thing in the building because people would be like, oh, look, there's a bird here and he's dancing. Oh, he's dancing. And you can follow that on my TikTok as well. You can go check it out. We have the whole trip to Austin. We have San Diego. We have Santa Barbara. We have trips to the park. We have trips to pretty much everywhere we frequent. We want to show people like, hey, these are really great animals. They can be great pals and you can pretty much take them anywhere. Why do you love birds so much?  I still am very in love with dogs but I've learned to realize that these birds are something amazing. They're very smart and there's advantages to having birds and there's advantages to having dogs. But a bird needs you, needs your attention and needs your support and needs your love and it's almost like owning a baby toddler for the rest of your life. A lot of thought goes into it. That's why you see a lot of birds up for adoption. If you are going to take on a bird, hopefully that person you adopt and from appreciates what you're doing and hopefully you know what you're getting into. That's about it. I'm lucky mine worked out really well. That is it. If you guys have any more questions for Danny, Ty, me, anything about Ty, I hope that gives you a new intro. Bye-bye! Oh my God! How do you know?
