So we're in between studios that is mainly the reason we haven't done a lot of episodes lately we I was thinking about it. We did two episodes a week for pretty much at least a year straight. Oh yeah, it's not your two. And then I was like, man, I would get bombed and I'd be like, I'll record a solo. And then every time I'd sit down and do it I feel like a turd yeah all right I'm gonna go do five other things right I'm gonna come back to this and then I would never do

Are you drinking by yourself? I am doing my own podcast podcast now. And then my place looks like garbage still because our studio we basically split the we basically had a divorce almost we had to split our equipment just so it's not everywhere over here and everywhere my place and so my my place still looks like like a meth head lives there a little bit okay, as I'm trying to have everything in buckets still trying to organize it but it's like buckets in piles. I can't take a whole day and do it out. You know, I don't have enough time to do that.

Law Smith
4:26
just mad at your pizza costume because you've got the $5 Pizza size that won't have any crust, the tiny crust, it's not long New York slice as a frozen pizza. Like you can tell because the the pepperoni is three pepperonis that take up the majority of the slice. You know, everybody's been there where you're broke. And you're like, well, I guess I could eat the Red Baron pizza for like six bucks. Mm hmm. But Walmart's got their own brand of pizza. That's 250 and that is like diarrhea. For sure. Yeah, you Get it up though. Warm tire you do it. Yeah. Yeah, it's it's almost pizza. Yeah. Well, I was
Eric Readinger

food. I got this because my my wife and daughter are gonna be Domino's delivery drivers for Halloween. Yeah, so I'm on brand. Well, not really
Law Smith
5:16
that thick crust dog though. Yeah. And you need like a low self esteem. Have you seen the dominance there was like, like, like, you know, I was I was using this in a meeting the other day about like, there. I was working on a client that I guess they were kind of dogshit before we took over to help them out. And there's a new CEO, CEO and stuff and they have an image problem and where they're at and I was like, so we go hardcore Domino's or we get commercials and go, Hey, we were really shitty. Yeah, I like how self effacing are we getting
Eric Readinger
5:55
that got me back to Domino's.
Law Smith
5:57
I wonder how successful that campaign? Oh, it's had
Eric Readinger
6:00
a big because I mean like that's what we ordered now I mean it's all kind of the same, you know?
Law Smith
6:04
Let's rank them I don't know if we've ever done this I do this in real life I ask people to rank white trash pizza so you got Papa John's Pizza Hut Domino's everybody how is

Right. Like what sex he was?
Law Smith
6:44
No, no, no, he was paraphrasing something the colonel said KFC Colonel said with an N bomb in it on a meeting or like a phone call up and then said but he's paraphrasing it wasn't he's like he's quoting the colonel. I got it right. He was racist or something. Yeah. shocker. And, and like the the person that's supposed to kind of protect on the publicist or PR person dropped a dime on him, dude. Good. That's not good. That is, why not he that's one of those things where you're like, Look, I bet he sucks. I bet he sucks to hang out. Don't get me wrong he I say he looks like before that. Can you look? I know I'm saying like, I'm not. I don't think he'd be fun to hang out with. He looks like he puts on eyeliner a little bit. Right? That bothers me. I think he gets a perm. Right? Pretty sure. And does Elan musk care or he's probably bald. Have you seen Elon Musk when he was at PayPal? And then now Yeah,
Eric Readinger
7:36
amazing. What a billion dollars can buy you?
Law Smith
7:38
Yeah, he figured it out. How can we can't he can't share that secret or figure that out too for everybody but he probably got
Eric Readinger
7:44
some cutting it stem cells injected into his noggin. Yeah,
Law Smith
7:48
but make it cheaper for us. You know, we're right
7:50
there, man. He's,
Law Smith
7:52
I mean, you know I'm on the precipice dude. Even if I could be like my dad with like, I'm gonna have the deep
7:59
kind of With our rallies,
Law Smith
8:01
yeah. Yeah. And I'm gonna look like I'm gonna have silver white hair like Ashley what's that guy's name from? Oh, he's founded down Will Ferrell. World Fair. Oh scared. Oh, okay, I thought you're talking about the other or the new Yeah, silly baby. Yeah Billy Freeman.
Eric Readinger
8:19
Yes, that one my favorite new character?
8:21
Yeah,
Eric Readinger
8:22
yeah. But yeah, the you know, like it's gemstone even if we do get like new hair. I'm just gonna end up shaving my head anyways.
Law Smith
8:32
Why? Oh, you've been doing it for a while.
8:34
It's not only barber and all that. It's like, sit there and talk to
Law Smith
8:39
someone like it. I go to a lesbian barber. Yeah, you go to like a salon. No, I go to like the most lesbian barber shop of all time.
Eric Readinger
8:47
I didn't know that was a thing.
Law Smith
8:48
It's in Ybor City or little Burg mystery enclave over there. Where we used to be but it's, it's they give you a beer. One of those places you know very hip. I like it. You know, I'm I'm you know a man of the people you were just not perience I like I like them I used to say no thank you for the shampoo and now I go for it because it's kind of like a little head massage treat yourself man. Why pay for it anyway? I was just paying for it not getting it.
Eric Readinger
9:15
Oh yeah super cuts they don't even think they have a sink.
Law Smith
9:18
Fantastic Sam not that fantastic. Who
9:20
knows you down Oh back if you want
Law Smith
9:22
but Papa John's then Domino's then pizza you know it's it's very rare that I'm not drunk or high when I eat
Eric Readinger
9:33
right so then it all is kind of the same anyways, so
Law Smith
9:38
yeah, well the butter I don't like like buttery crust with Pizza Hut. You know? I like that. I like that if you're getting a butter fest you just go you go hungry Howie's and get some Cajun in there to some cutting edge jibber jabber here. Well, it kind of matters Could I did a thing in business school that you had to pick two stocks right and then I kind of been following them one was Sirius XM. Mm hmm. Because I looked at it, it was a penny stock and I was like, well, that's something I could invest in. Maybe if I kind of do my research pay attention to it and that's when I pick and you had to pick it at the beginning of the class like that Saved by the Bell episode. Right. Good morning Miss bliss one. We're at the end of the semester, like both of mine did extremely well. Probably john doe, what would they want to do in stocks? What were they doing? They were doing Tito's, they're doing commodities. Like I thought it was like an egg like trading. I'm pretty sure it's like potatoes. It was a great show. I think there was an Idaho like joke in there something about horse Yeah. But so Papa John's was my other one that I took because both of those things I was like, I know what these things are. I like these so anacott steal from Wall Street.
Eric Readinger
10:53
I don't know Wall Street like the Pac Man like you do that
Law Smith
10:55
movie. No. Well, I just remember anacott steel. It's like, come on, man. What the fuck we Sell it and it's like, you know, there's this this and a few times anyway. No, I don't. Well, I just think like the money is to be made in the boring ones that no one knows about. That's kind of my theory. Okay. Yes. You know, like, if you're if you know sexy one, right if there's not a lot of people paying attention to like steel companies and stuff, you know, it's like 100 people that give a shit about it, huh? I mean, maybe 1000 you know maybe but Papa John's every fatty in the United States loves it. Yeah. And then they were going international. That's why I picked it.
11:29
So to pass the class would you get
11:32
c plus got
Law Smith
11:32
an A crushed it. Sorry. I did work at a mutual fund company before I went to Yeah, yeah, no big deal. Yeah, but one of my bosses won the Nobel Prize for economics. You've mentioned it. Shout out to Eugene fama. Well, we don't have a soundboard do it. We do owe
Eric Readinger
11:49
us haven't done anything cool for me to push.
Law Smith
11:51
That's boat horn worthy for sure. Ah, so I'm going to put this out to our audience. I need to figure out I'm working on email lists for this show. I'm trying to get all I'm trying to scrape all the emails out of my Gmail. Good luck. Well, no, you used to be just able to export. Like everybody, you know how it'll predictive, you email someone like twice you know, it'll populate, you know, some kind of contact.
Eric Readinger
12:22
Right? Kind of pre do it for you, right? Like if you go to too ridiculous a little thing in there and you put their first letter and they might pop up
Law Smith
12:29
right. And so there used to be a way back in the day. So what I would do for clients like three or four years ago, I go well, you want to know the uncouth way that MailChimp is not really cool with but we can do it is we're going to export all your personal emails into Excel and then you just need to sit there for like an hour and just delete people you absolutely do not want on this thing.
Eric Readinger
12:53
Why does MailChimp not like that?
Law Smith
12:56
Because there's like spam laws and stuff and They if you get too many pingbacks from that first one, let's say you do it you have 2000 emails that's still in the free account right? And then you you don't send out an email saying you're subscribed to this newsletter whatever it is this email list and then you get too many that
Eric Readinger
13:19
pop back to you right as in like bad
Law Smith
13:21
unsubscribe like the percentage of people that unsubscribe they'll kill the account so what so they account I had for our law at sweat equity pod calm that guy killed because that happened. So yeah, we need to use like our boy Joseph's email or something,
13:43
man the dream Gmail in
Law Smith
13:44
So at any rate used to be able to export it. Now there's a lot of Chrome extensions that claim to do it. I don't really trust them. Because I feel like I don't want to give away that information necessarily to like an app if I don't have to, if there's a way to Do it Yeah, there without having to use a third party that I'm trying. That's what I want to figure out. They're probably using it like, yeah, sure, we'll help you with that. And then they take the everything you got and add it to their giant list because Google now has its own product called Google Contacts. So they want you to manually put people in like your Rolodex, their product, Google Contacts, so you can export those. But you can't do it old school style, where you just be able to put it out to a CSV file. You can't go from your Gmail to your Google Contacts. You got to put them in manually. I think so. Or do you have to do it like, No way?
Eric Readinger
14:34
Yeah, Google doesn't have that locked down. Easily transition? What do you mean, like to get to pull your contacts from Gmail, and put them into Google Contacts within it? I mean, how's that not just like, automatically populated by Google?
Law Smith
14:48
That's what it used to do. And now it doesn't. Now you have to put it in as a contact. Like, you have to click something as you go. Right. If you're like a privacy law thing, probably. I mean, this stuff's going to get crack down like I for Facebook ads I had to for I'm running a campaign for someone. Or last week I was running a campaign for someone and I had to verify my ID. The picture, I scan for my phone using the Adobe scan app was just your dick. Well, yeah. And then I put a quarter next to it for scale. But what's it called? Or done? And what's it called? It didn't it was like we're not, we can accept a driver's license. First off, I have to submit my driver's license, which is weird. Yeah. Now after this, after we're done here, I have to go to a friend of the program, David Carter's office, because I gotta get a I gotta get him to be a notary for Facebook that says, I am who I am. I have to get them to stamp that and then submit it. Wow. And I was like, wow, that's interesting. And it's a painting. It's an errand I don't want to run but it's only like five minutes out of my way and then, but it's interesting because they they're really trying to find Figure out a measurement way cuz like ads are tough to put out there because anything getting flagged that's even remotely near housing, employment or politics, politics. Yeah.
Eric Readinger
16:13
Yeah, dude. Well, I mean so Twitter, they got rid of all political advertising altogether no more.
Law Smith
16:19
Wow yesterday. Yeah, but I think Twitter's gonna it's it's almost dead
Eric Readinger
16:23
I mean yeah I don't
Law Smith
16:24
know 30% of the users aren't even real, some some nutty like that crazy and then like 2% of the discussion or 2% of the people control 90% of the discussion or something crazy like that.
Eric Readinger
16:37
Well, I believe it I mean, you know,
Law Smith
16:40
so Kardashian. Well, yeah, but I mean, like, I get it. It's a follower, thought leader follower kind of thing. And it had a bigger like Facebook. As jack Dorsey said, it's the conversation of people you already know. Twitter supposed to be the conversation people that you don't know. Yeah. So you that's why it's follower. Leave. You're kind of thing.
Eric Readinger
17:00
Yeah, let's have a conversation or declarations.
Law Smith
17:04
Right? Well, you hit reply to people that will never reply back to you because they're famous right?
Eric Readinger
17:10
Talk on Twitter.
Law Smith
17:12
But that's interesting that I think Twitter still allows porn though, which is nice. Is there saving grace and then Instagrams, like, if you show a nip, you're out? Yeah. What are they doing? I don't get it. Yeah, I don't know. It's many times with advertising online. And, and Google also is cracked down to I've noticed when I'm doing campaigns, they're like, the landing page. You're sending this too. I don't know, most the time be an error. That's wrong, because it's just a bot on there. And it'll be like it had the language on this landing page is it isn't cool. Really? Yeah. So I had a couple law firms last couple months, doing their ad campaigns, right. It would be like you can't send anybody to this landing page because it talks about you know, juvenile, you know, arrest or something like that, huh? See, yeah, we a pornography arrest or something right. Okay, it's I will know. And then I had to resubmit it to go No, no, I have to appeal those. Yeah, no, this is legit. They're fine.
Eric Readinger
18:14
It's weird. I mean, it's weird that you were saying about Facebook and all the like ID and stuff that they because on the heels of the Twitter thing, like Zuckerberg came out was like, No, I think we still need to sell political advertising and all this stuff. It was like really still pushing it but like, yeah, it's a big it's a big part of their ad model for sure. I'm just saying like, they do do like, some due diligence.
Law Smith
18:39
Now not not really well,
Eric Readinger
18:42
if you want to go like if you have a Facebook page and you want to do like political advertising, there's like extra steps you got to take
Law Smith
18:51
now now you do. But that last election was fuckin crazy. Whoa, yeah.
18:56
Presidential legs, right. And that's
Law Smith
18:58
because of that and what they were doing was they would take overpay, they'd either buy out pages, this is what the Russian troll farms in lightship was doing. Which is really interesting because they would take like a page that already existed it'd be like, all they were doing is ripping like worldstar hip hop videos. Right? Right. It'd be like, it'd be like funny videos, you know, or something like that. And then they change the name of the page. I don't know how to do that, because you have to get accepted for that if the page name Yeah, and then it'd be like blacklivesmatter. And then they would show all these like crazy. Like, you know, the statistics of cops shooting black people isn't like, it wasn't a big job. We were just getting more of that to us. Right. And so the theory is that the Russian kind of stuff where they were doing this with Facebook ads and shit, getting it out there. It's just a great fervor just to create like split Yeah. Oh, for sure. I mean, yeah, in that fucking is. Yeah. Oh,
Eric Readinger
19:55
yeah. Oh, no, they're doing it. It's like a joker. They're doing it in like African countries. Now like I just saw someone they're trying like they have a new disinformation campaign good
Law Smith
20:04
I gave $1,000 to a guy over there man.
Eric Readinger
20:07
Yeah, there's a Nigerian prince with the check my name on it waiting on it.
Law Smith
20:11
There's a thing with the Nigerian guys are the best scammer somehow I forget what that is like, there's some reason that we're really good at
Eric Readinger
20:19
every time. My wife Nikki sent a
20:23
laptop computer. No Africa. No. Oh, yeah,
Eric Readinger
20:27
really? It was like $100 to ship it. This was right when I first started dating.
20:30
Oh my god. Okay. And yeah, she didn't get paid. No, no.
Law Smith
20:37
How come you didn't tell me this earlier? I would have made fun of her a lot. I just remembered it. What kind of laptop we're talking about Acer like old piece of junk. Okay. Wow. Good chance. There's a good chance that they would have just hit the garbage anyway.
Eric Readinger
20:50
Yeah, probably. Yeah, but the funny we still had to pay to ship it
Law Smith
20:54
is what's hilarious. And you're y'all were first started dating. So you're like you Whatever does not getting laid through Africa. That's a good idea. I really sympathize. I think they're gonna pay Yeah. Oh, is it a scam? Yeah, they've sitting there and asked for laptops and they
Eric Readinger
21:17
shoot I think she sold it on eBay or something
Law Smith
21:20
I don't remember. Okay, that's different but if it was straight up like soliciting you remember you get ripped off Craigslist eBay used to be crazy too because I was telling you the other month I was like having trouble like, selling shit on eBay because they'd be like, Oh, cool. We're gonna hold on to this for 30 days cuz you have been on eBay 90 you haven't sold anything in 90 days. I was like, I'm trying to be less wasteful and not just throw some shit in the trash that even if it's like five bucks, I'd rather just try to sell it Yeah, and just I don't know I'd rather not just fucking go recycling. Yeah, no, I get that like old routers and shit. Yeah.
Eric Readinger
22:00
For sure. I feel bad if I'm storing away Yeah, you'll have like, material value, you know?
Law Smith
22:07
Yeah, once I that john oliver thing like three years ago where he was like Americans waste on average some like 30% 35% of the food they buy. Oh yeah, it might be higher than that. I don't know. But it made me think about waste just in general like, not try trying to do that trying to be as hippy with it without being a pack rat. Right tough. Right now I look like I could be in hoarders, if you're in an apartment. Right? A lot of stuff different. Even just one bedroom, two dogs and half the time two babies. Since? Yeah. So Wednesday night, Wednesday nights, I sweep everything up, shoving in one of the closets. Yeah. You know goes so that I'm putting it out to everybody. If anybody knows how to do that. Feel like our friend of the program Alex Ebell. Now in Knoxville, Tennessee shout out who's gonna come on the podcast soon been bumped out bums me out. I was talking to him via text. He's been kind of down the dumps and I'm like, that's the whole thing. You did lunch before. So like combat this? Uh huh. So I think there's a new place. Yeah, he's not he's not doing like a normal day job. And I hope he doesn't mind us talking about him. I'm not saying anything out of line.
Eric Readinger
23:31
Like we're live or anything.
Law Smith
23:33
Whatever. He's probably watching, like, Fuck you. Oh, yeah. Hi. If anybody wants to ask a question live. I want to see if we can answer some stuff. But I'm seeing here, I'm bringing it up.
Eric Readinger
23:49
It's getting warmer. My Cheese is starting to melt
Law Smith
23:54
fat head on this thing. Um, so anything you got going on your life, man. How's your Tc tuggers? How's your vasectomy stuff? Good? Good. No babies, no babies, right? It took it took.
Eric Readinger
24:08
Yeah. Let's think about that. It's all worth it. Yeah. You know, the longer you go along the less you'll probably want to get up a sec to me why I think the longer time progresses you'll probably double think this sec to me idea.
Law Smith
24:23
No, no, I'm gonna get it. It's more like just I got to schedule it out correctly. Because when I tried to do it, I had to like, get my parents involved. And I was like, man, I didn't want to tell them about this. And I was like, cuz I was like, you got to pick up the kids because I can't pick up anything over whatever bout of poundage. Well, I didn't trust your your recovery on it as stripping out in like stroke. Having Myrtles Yeah, way too soon.
24:53
Yeah. And so it's your
Law Smith
24:56
style points are cool. When are we going to that doctor on here bye. By the way,

Eric Readinger
25:38

Eric Readinger
25:48

Eric Readinger
26:54
And I mean, it's getting a lot of responses. I haven't met anybody. So I don't know if it's Good quality candidates.
Law Smith
27:03
I'm glad we threw this out there because I do have some kind of pragmatic advice for this hirings really tough, right? Because zip recruiters are great thing when you go, Oh, cool. It'll list me on all these things. Right? Right. The problem is you get too many resumes. And you, you almost it's almost a pick six, because you're like, I should have just done this at all. Because you don't want to read all these resumes. Yeah, right. And it's not really resumes are bad. A bad representation of someone I know. It doesn't really tell you much. Like because for especially a job like this, it's way more about personality. Oh, for sure. And it's all just right in like, it's this person, you're going to be in her phone, or his phone the whole time. Like, is this person affable? Are they present? Right? How bad like if you can figure out how bad do they need the job? Yeah, you know, like some people that's, that's what you want. You want someone that needs it. You know, you think so
Eric Readinger
27:57
sure. Say the other thing. Somebody could or could not take it. What do you mean? I mean, you know if they're in a good I'm saying like if they have a job and they're doing a good job somewhere else,
Law Smith
28:07
they're not here to jobs. Yeah.
Eric Readinger
28:08
Then that's that's a good thing. They're desperate for a job. Like why do you Why don't work our
Law Smith
28:13
mid 30s I think everybody younger than us has a few jobs going well, we do too. But everybody younger than us has, like it's a gig economy. I feel like everybody's got like four jobs or something, you know? Or you know, your receptionist at a dental practice by day Instagram. crime fighting Instagram influencer. Whoo. Yeah. Like you're feeling like you're doing like Chris Hanson shit. I'm just coming out of the shower. Won't you ever see Yeah, I get a justice boner for that show. Probably shouldn't say that about that show. But yeah, I would say, Here's that. Here's what we should do. Right. The hard part thing that sucks with hiring is you got to figure out what that cost is. No one Goddamn no one knows it for leads for like, new clients or new patients or new customers. They sure shit don't most people don't know it about what it costs to actually hire someone. A negative a bad hire is negative 298% return on investment.
29:18
Oh, yeah. So
Law Smith
29:20
that's why it's like people kind of, and people do it last second, right. I think y'all had a different situation. But, you know, yeah, she's retiring.
Eric Readinger
29:29
Right? So we have time,
Law Smith
29:32
right? So that's good. Like, that's the thing where you're not, but a lot of people scramble to find someone to fill something and then they get like, either just a bad hire, because it never thought it beforehand. Yeah. Like you knew this lady was going to retire at some point. So it's kind of in your head, even if you haven't formally kind of put it down on paper. But I think about that all the time. Because think about places you've worked and you're like, they won't fire someone. You're like, Why don't they just fire this fucking person you've worked with
Eric Readinger
29:59
they need And
