Starved. Who cares? Speaking of good old mercy, you know, let's. Let's wait. Let's wait. Let's wait. Today I was driving by a restaurant and went, huh. I haven't thought about that in a long time. And I don't know if I've said this on camera. I might have. Stop me if I'm wrong or if I have story time. Are you ready for this story? Here we go. So one time I worked at this company named Stizzy. You guys know that. We all know that. I used to work with Stizzy. Some of my favorite videos are Stizzy videos. They go through employees. Like I do joints. I get a new number from the new person that took over that every four weeks. By the way, Leanne's gone. I'm Stephanie for. And hey, Stephanie, how you doing? In the same 10 seconds, actually, Stephanie left the company now. This is Brian. I swear to God, by the time I hang up, they text me back, like, they're gone. So they were looping through all these people, and then they got this one guy that stayed for, like, four months. And then they introduced me to him. I met him. He was a nice guy. He's a nice guy. Cool. Super chill. Done. Then he goes, hey, I know you're in contract right now, blah, blah, blah. I just have his number because I met him through Stizzy. Because they said, hey, this is your rep. And I go, okay, cool. I'm talking to him. Says, we should meet up. This is back when I lived in Burbank. He said, we should meet up. I passed by that restaurant today. We should talk about, you know, the next couple months. Go run it. I don't care. We had a lunch meeting. I get there and I'm like, spidey sense is going off I judge. I. I can. I can read people very well. Really well. Like, it's a special hidden talent. And I'm looking. I'm like, oh, you're off a little within the first 10 seconds. You're nice. Something's off. You definitely call a girl 30 times after she blocked you. Type of like, something's up. I'm talking to him, talking to him, talking to him. Talking about stizzy stuff. I say some numbers about some things. This should take, because that's exactly what my meeting was this morning. Oh, yeah. If you do this and this, your sales will go up in this area. And he goes, that's exactly what our meeting was this morning. I'm like, hire me. I know. I get it. I understand. I'm a consumer first, and then I make content. That's how I do the content. How would I like this if I was somebody watching this? Okay, got the idea. So I'm sitting there in about 20 minutes, and we're talking. He goes, yeah, like, you know, sometimes I'm just manic. I. Manic episodes. Sometimes I'm just like. In my head, I'm like, awesome. Sick. I'm like, oh, yep. We all. Yeah, it happens, man. I just kind of play it off like, who's all good, dog? Yeah, who's not crazy? And I'm like, yo, uncock your gun in my head. I'm like, are you okay? You know, manic episodes. I'm like, okay, all good. All good. Start game planning. I mean, we're. Game planning. I get a text from Stizzy about four days later. I'm like, yo, how's everything going? They're like, yo, next video is gonna be this man. Yeah, I actually just met up with so and so. Like, they went, what? I met up with so and so to talk about the campaign. They go, he hasn't worked here in three months. What do you mean he hasn't worked here in three months? He got fired three months ago. I go, the person that you gave, like. And I kept saying his name. I said it all, laid it out for him, like, just some mental things. And we just. We just. You know, we've. We separate way. I'm like, of course you did. Of course you didn't send me a text to go. By the way. We let this person go. Don't meet up with him in person. So I'm sitting here talking to a guy that's talking about that we're gonna do, and he doesn't even work there anymore. He had quit fired three months Before I spoke to him in person. And I'm sitting here and he's going over saying, yeah, we just talked about the meeting. We just talked about the meeting. Like you were lying about all of it. Okay, weird. And then he text me again, and I kind of just went, what is.
