Key Discussion Points and Insights

1. Origins, Fashion, and Early Experimentation

• [01:08] Influence of Upbringing

  • Jared reflects on growing up in Boyle Heights and Whittier. More than the neighborhoods, it was his day-to-day life—watching cartoons at his grandma’s, getting lost on the computer—that influenced his taste and style.
  • On starting out:
    "When I was younger, my mom was working a lot. I was like living with my grandma. And that entailed just watching cartoons, being on the computer, getting lost on the Internet." [03:13]

• [03:45] Getting into Fashion Interviews

  • Began as a freshman, interviewing classmates with a phone and a basic mic—seeking a sense of freedom and fun.

  • Early content was comedic:
    "I printed out a photo of the KFC Colonel Sanders... I'm like, what president is this?" [03:48]

  • Social media expanded reach:
    "One of them got like, a million views. And, like, I've never seen, like, the number million anywhere in my life. I was like, oh, my God, like, this is crazy." [04:55]

2. Trends, Taste and the Power (and Absurdity) of Influence

• [05:26] Trends Debates: Chokers, Birkenstocks, Fashion Lines

  • The host pushes Jared on the return of chokers, disdain for Birkenstocks, and support for the "bustier thing."
  • Jared’s take: Subcultures (goths, emos) keep some trends alive, influence is underestimated: "I don’t realize that sometimes, like, when I do videos, like, people watch them for fashion inspiration..." [06:46]
  • They riff on trendsetting power:
    "If I go and get a hot girl with a dog collar and it gets a million views, people are going to be like, oh, our dog collar is back..." [06:46]

• [10:20] Best and Worst Trends

  • Jared advocates for comfort, personal style, and “big pants” over “skinny jeans.”
  • Notable quote:
    "I don't like skinny jeans... I need my balls to breathe. They can't breathe. It gets sweaty. I'm walking out, my thighs are chafing. I don't like that." [11:13]

3. From Modeling to Multi-Hyphenate: Trial, Error, and Finding Purpose

• [11:38] Wandering Career Path

  • Tried everything—modeling, acting, journalism, casting, fashion—before finding his groove.
  • Jared’s self-discovery:
    "I was just had my hand in 20 different buckets until I realized this is who I am. This is what I'm good at. This is what my legacy is going to be..." [12:32]

• [12:49] The YouTube University Effect

  • Both agree: today’s young creators outpace traditional education with online learning.
  • "YouTube is a new university... I dropped out of college. And when I was no longer in college, I'm like, okay, what am I gonna do?... I want to learn how to be a better interviewer, how to edit videos. So I'm just going to sit down..." [13:25]

• [14:03] Financial Literacy & Listening to Mom

  • Jared’s mother, a banker, instills critical lessons in managing money. The importance of listening to previous generations is a recurring theme.
  • Host’s advice:
    "Your mother has forgotten more than you will ever know about this." [14:43]

4. Sobriety, Loss, and Resilience

• [16:22] Losing Friends to Drugs

  • Honest discussion about losing a friend at 18-19, the toll on families, and the difference between his generation’s and the previous generation’s exposure to the drug epidemic.
  • "It's a scary world we live in now... knowing friends that still do drugs sometimes, knowing that it's in there. And I'm like, why?" [17:10]

• [17:35] Jared’s Path to Sobriety

  • Post-high school, Covid lockdowns, and the wrong crowd led Jared to substance use. A drive for self-improvement and peer inspiration motivated getting clean.
  • Quote on change:
    "I want to be fully in control when I'm interviewing someone, when I'm talking to somebody, and just knowing that I'm in my mode and I wouldn't fill in my mode if I would take a drink... Slowly, slowly, slowly, I started getting sober. And that's when I looked into... what I really want to do with my content." [18:45]

• [20:14] Viral Growth and Focus

  • The shift to focused, sober content and a supportive creative circle led to rapid growth:
    "I grew a hundred thousand followers... I'm gonna post three to four interviews a day..." [20:14]
  • The value of finding people who believe in your vision is underscored.

5. Time Management, Generational Challenges, and Wisdom Transfer

• [26:03] Soapbox Segment—On “Not Enough Time”
  • Jared self-diagnoses with too many projects and insufficient time management. "I feel like I need so much more time in the day. I’ll wake up, get to work, go to sleep, going to work. And then I’m like, dude, where’s the time going?" [26:03]
  • Host’s advice: old-school time blocking, self-help resources, finishing tasks before switching, and “crossing it off the list.” "You wake up, do your morning routine... You block in the time for it and you add 20 minutes for any one of these major things that you're doing. So that way you don't put pressure on yourself... And you make a list. You put it in your calendar. Right. And then you know what you do? You cross it off the list." [29:53]

6. Parenthood, Family, and Responsibility

• [30:48] On Wanting Kids... But Not Yet

  • Jared expresses hope for future fatherhood but recognizes he’s not ready yet.

  • The host advises waiting until being “fully established”: "Because you’re a kid. You’re not fully established. You want to make certain that you have your ducks in a row."[30:59]

  • Humorous retelling of "The Three Little Pigs" as a bedtime story, highlighting family protection and generational storytelling. [31:43–34:51]

7. Fashion, Influence, and Purpose

• [35:31] Being a Model and a Personality

  • Playful exchange about the viability of the host becoming a model, leading to jokes about dad jeans, Zoolander, and “styling” the host. [35:31–36:49]

• [36:59] Doing Things for Love, Not Money

  • Jared’s approach is doing what he loves and hoping to inspire others, while the host reveals podcasting as a mission to save young lives. "I do the podcasting because all the kids are dying. And that's why I grabbed a lot of kids in the underground rap scene because it was hurting them the most." [37:05]

8. The Drug Crisis, Generational Change, the Cost of Experimentation

• [38:36] Why This Podcast Exists

  • Host’s passionate take: the next generation can't “experiment” with drugs the way he could as a kid; fentanyl and synthetics have made mistakes instantly deadly: "You do one bump of something, and you’re dead. 70% of these things have... and 42% of them have legal lethal doses."[38:51]
  • Jared hopes his story—moving from substance use to success—can help friends and listeners make better choices.

• [39:37] Platform Shoes Fashion Update (Lighthearted Close)

  • Yes: platform shoes are back across various subcultures. [39:37]

At that time, that's when I was really so focused and locked in. A big thing, too, is finding a group of people that believe in your vision who are very similar to me in that aspect, that they make videos. They understand. Like, I want to go do a video with a certain group of people. They'd be like, bro, like, that's embarrassing. Why are you going to get up and go talk to a stranger about his outfit? You know?

[Jared Morrows]

Okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And it's going to be a 58 year old white guy.

[Jared Morrows]

I feel like you could wipe them down, you know.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Oh, I'm gonna kick their ass.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, yeah, I can do that. I can see. Okay, let's go back to the question about, you know, Whittier, Boyle Heights area. So I feel like it wasn't as much the cities that I grew up in, but when I grew up, when I was younger, my mom was working a lot. I was like living with my grandma. And that entailed just watching cartoons, being on the computer, getting lost on the Internet.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Tell me about your fit check.

[Jared Morrows]

Which one?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

No, on you. No, no, on all of it. Tell me about how you got into that. Tell me about, you know, all of it. Give me the whole.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, man. It goes back. I started in high school interviewing kids when I was a freshman. Just like with the phone, shitty little mic. And when, when I first started, it made me feel like some type of freedom, some type of joy, you know, just asking kids like stupid questions. I gotta go around school. I remember one of my favorite videos that I did when I was in high school. I printed out a photo of the kfc. Colonel Sanders. Right. I was going around my school And I'm like, what president is this? And I was just trying to, like, that is so, you know, funny. Yeah. I was trying to get, like, some good reactions from people and just, like, have fun with my peers at school.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Hysterical.

[Jared Morrows]

It was great. It was great. I might, I have to find the video. It's like we somewhere.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

But if we went to one of those fine educational institutions, I'm talking Ivy League.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And we did that. That would be hysterical.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah. I feel like it's Chad. GPT in the Internet, even back then, people were like, oh, is this Abraham Lincoln? And I'm like, bro, are you kidding me? This guy makes chicken. But yeah, it started doing stuff like that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

So good. That's so good.

[Jared Morrows]

It started doing stuff like that. And then I started just. I was always into fashion, so I saw, like, this trend going around. People would ask about their fits, this and that, like on Tick Tock Instagram. I was like, you know, let me try it. I did a couple videos like that, and, like, one of them got like, a million views. And, like, I've never seen, like, the number million everywhere in, anywhere in my life. I was like, oh, my God, like, this is crazy. Started doing more, started doing more, Started doing more to where we are now.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That's so funny. All right, I've written down some really serious questions that I need you to answer. Okay.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, let's do it. All right.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Winner. Chokers coming back.

[Jared Morrows]

When are chokers coming back?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yeah, I love the chokers.

[Jared Morrows]

You love the. Why do you love the chokers?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

When are they coming back?

[Jared Morrows]

Okay, I, I honestly don't know. I've never been in the chokers, but I feel like there are certain subcultures that still will rule by them till the end of time.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Good.

[Jared Morrows]

Give me those, like, goths, emos, you know?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I don't want the goth.

[Jared Morrows]

Give me more, like, like, then what are you into? I'll tell you if they were chokers or not.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I, I, I like.

[Jared Morrows]

I, I don't. It depends. Like, what are they into for them to wear chokers? You know, I don't, I don't see them coming back. In my realm of life, I might wear, like, maybe some tight necklaces, but this is, like, the tightest schedule, man.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Oh, disheartening.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, I'm sorry.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I need a little good news, bro.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay. Maybe if you go to Hot Topic. Go to Hot Topic, go to a mall that has those type of stores, just like, kick it out a little, you know, go get yourself a pretzel and sit down, like, at the Bench, you might find somebody coming out with a choker.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Do I mean mustard with the pretzel?

[Jared Morrows]

I like sweet pretzels. In my head, I had, like, a cinnamon sugar pretzel.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That's dope. Because you. You're the fashion guy. Like, I'm the rehab guy. If somebody comes to me, they don't have a problem anymore. I'm trying to give you the, like, dude, you're the king. You can make it happen. You're the guy who can bring that.

[Jared Morrows]

I. I don't realize that sometimes, like, when I do videos, like, people watch them for fashion inspiration and for this and that, I'm going out to have fun. And now that you say that, I'm like, oh, yeah, if I go and get a hot girl with a dog collar and it gets a million views, people are going to be like, oh, our dog collar is back. Should I wear a dog collar?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

See what I'm saying? Yeah, but wait, there's.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay, there's more.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Would you be willing to talk about Birkenstocks and Birkenstocks?

[Jared Morrows]

Yes.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I hate those.

[Jared Morrows]

Why do you hate them?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Because they are the most unsexy things on the face of the earth. They're worse than that, those knickers. So. You're too young to know about knickers. Okay, Girls. There was a whole thing all through my high school with girls with knickers. They were disgusting. That.

[Jared Morrows]

What is that?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

It's like pants that go up to your middle cat. You're mid.

[Jared Morrows]

Like. Like capris, kind of, but, like, just like upper higher.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay, well, I don't know what capris.

[Jared Morrows]

Are, but I think maybe that's my generation's word for knickers.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay.

[Jared Morrows]

What if they're comfortable? What if somebody's wearing them for comfort and not for fashion?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I don't care.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, I would.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I mean, not in the slightest.

[Jared Morrows]

I wouldn't make fun of somebody unless they come at me first.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And I'm like, you'd be willing to.

[Jared Morrows]

I'd be willing to. They said something to me. No, no, not if I do. Okay, no, just like, I might think it. I'd be like, oh, Birkenstocks. But, like, I'm not gonn it a public statement.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay, well, we're gonna talk until you do. Because here's the thing. Because I tell you why.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay, okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You're gonna do the. You're gonna do the thing with the choker, right? Okay. You said you would.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay, I would. I would.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I've been giving you money for the dog collar.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay, we'll see after. If you guys see a video of somebody with a dog collar that's going up, it was because of this moment right here.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

It's because of you. You're the king. Just like you're willing to do the dog collar.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay, Then this is the exact opposite. See? Dog collars. And you're doing me a solid.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

But I hate the Birkenstocks, so do me a solid.

[Jared Morrows]

For some reason, Crocs has me blocked on Instagram, and I think it's because I might have said something one time that I don't recall this or that some same might happen with Birkenstocks.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yeah. Okay, so that's a yes? Maybe. All right, maybe. Take the maybe. Can you make certain that that bustier thing stays around? Oh, new style. I love that thing.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay. If I find somebody on the street wearing it, I'll do a video.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Can you. Can you make certain that the bustier thing sticks down a little bit?

[Jared Morrows]

How about you send me a list of like, yes, yes, yes, no, no, no. And I'll see what resonates with me, and I can make it happen.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay, that's good. But we're still going to go through a little. Okay, we will call the bustier thing with the belly ring and the little. The little thing.

[Jared Morrows]

You have, like, such a specific. Like, it's like creating a person that I see in your mind right now.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Right.

[Jared Morrows]

And I will try to find you.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Do a bunch of ink, though, too, right? A bunch of ink all over them. I like the ink.

[Jared Morrows]

How tall?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I don't care.

[Jared Morrows]

Shoe size?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Don't care.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay. Hair, not important. Okay. Three things.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

See?

[Jared Morrows]

Unboxier ink, belly button. I love this. I love the vision. I. I see it through. It's wonderful.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Dude, I want one of those Russian hats.

[Jared Morrows]

I can get you one. You can have this one after if you want it.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Don't tease me.

[Jared Morrows]

I'm serious.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Swear to God.

[Jared Morrows]

I swear to God. I can go get another one.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Love you. I'm not even sorry. Not even a little bit. What are the best and worst fashion trends right now?

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, man. Oh, man. Who's waiting for this? I'm not gonna lie. Things I like, personally, I don't know if this is the consensus of the entire United States and world. I like big pants. You see my pants that I walked in with?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Love them.

[Jared Morrows]

You don't even see the shoes. They're huge. I love letting them drag. I love letting them rip. It's just. It adds a character. It adds a swack. You Know I love that fashion trends. I.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Now is that okay for a 58 year old or would I just look stupid?

[Jared Morrows]

I think you could wear it. I think you can wear anything as long as you feel comfortable in at any age. I'm gonna be 60, wearing probably this exact thing, you know?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Right.

[Jared Morrows]

Might just be like not this exact one, but a new one and then something that I dislike a little in fashion. I don't want to say anything specific. I mean, there's certain things that I'm like about.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You can hurt people's feelings.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Can't hurt the clothes feelings.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Tell me what you don't like.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay. I don't like skinny jeans. Sometimes if I wear a pair of pants that's too skinny, I need my balls to breathe. They can't breathe. It gets sweaty. I'm walking out, my thighs are chafing. I don't like that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You know, throw away all my skinny jeans, please.

[Jared Morrows]

I. I mean, maybe it works for you. Maybe you get them tailored to be bigger in a certain area that you might need.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I just let the crotch out and I'm cool.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, see, I can't do that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

What motivated you to go from modeling to casting for major brands like Adidas and Nike?

[Jared Morrows]

Since I was young, I've just always been trying to find the thing that works for me. And you know, a lot of people like musicians, they might be like, I was 14, I knew I was gonna make music. I knew I was gonna do this and that. I was lost up until a couple years ago, you know, so I'm trying everything. I'm looking online, how to make a million dollars, how to be famous, how to do this, how to do that. And I'm just watching as much content as I can consume where I'm like, you know what? I want to be a model. I start learning how to model. I watch videos, I ask people that I know. I get into that world and I'm like, okay, is this something that I really want to do? I want to learn how to act. I went to like a community college. I took an acting class and I was like, okay, this is like what? This is like. I did journalism in community college. I did like fashion pattern making. I was like everywhere. You know, I started casting and I was just had my hand in 20 different buckets until I realized this is who I am. This is what I'm good at. This is what my legacy is going to be in the world.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

How old are you?

[Jared Morrows]

24.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Do you know what I love about that?

[Jared Morrows]

What?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Seriously, My son's like that, too. He wants to learn something and he goes on YouTube.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And he learns it all. Becomes an expert on anything he wants to know. Like, he went ahead and did a Rubik's cube. He just picked one up a month later. He's doing it in 17 seconds. Yeah. 27. Whatever. 17. 27. I don't remember. But. And the reason I like it so much is because it's really, if you think about it, making college obsolete.

[Jared Morrows]

YouTube is a new university. University. I was gonna say that I dropped out of college. And when I was no longer in college, I'm like, okay, what am I gonna do? Like, in college, you have to go learn one thing. This is your class. Go learn math that I'm never going to use. Go learn science that I'm never going to use.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Right.

[Jared Morrows]

But I want to learn how to be a better interviewer, how to edit videos. So I'm just going to sit down.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Financially literate.

[Jared Morrows]

Exactly. You can watch YouTube videos on any topic that you want to know. If you're not going to get that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That education in school, then you're going.

[Jared Morrows]

To go pay $30,000 a year for what?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And that is the most important thing you can learn, is financial literacy.

[Jared Morrows]

I've been learning that as a. Recently. My mom is a banker and she's like, hey, do you know what you're doing with your money? You're making money. Where is it going? You have to put this and this and this LLC st. Everywhere. You know, spread it out.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Listen to your mother.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, I am. I am. Like, as of recently, I've been learning. My mom has always been right.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

What does she do at the bank?

[Jared Morrows]

She helps.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

What's her position?

[Jared Morrows]

I don't know the exact name, but when people have their parents unfortunately pass away, she helps with the. The will. Money transfer. This. That.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You listen to me. Your mother is forgotten more than you will ever know about this.

[Jared Morrows]

She has what?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

She will have forgotten. Yes. Means she knows so much about this. Yes. That even if you studied this.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

For weeks, you will. She would have forgotten more than you learned. Yes. Yes. Okay. That's her job. She's got probably the toughest job at the bank.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay. And she looks at what works and what doesn't. Okay. Yeah. You gotta listen to your mother.

[Jared Morrows]

Hell yeah, I do. I do.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Call your mother.

[Jared Morrows]

I am. I can't wait to be a parent and just really see, like, the things I did to my mom sometimes. She's like, you, like, didn't listen to me. Like, why? And now I'm like, oh, I should have listened. And I'm gonna be a parent one day and I'm gonna tell my kid. Why didn't you listen to me? I told you this and that. See, that's how you are right now.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Talk about my kids are so good that I should really have a DNA test taken to see if they're.

[Jared Morrows]

Why? Because you feel like you're not as good or what?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Well, I know my 11 year old and my 15 year old are both smarter than me by a lot. Okay. If they ask me to help them with their homework, I look at.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I mean, in third grade, my kid looked at me and said, hey, can you help me with this? And I looked at it, and for the life of me, he's like, babe, I don't know any of this stuff. Not any of it.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah. My little brother, he's in high school and he was like, asking me something about a math question. I'm like, like, I don't know what any of this is. I hate math. Same thing. And I feel like I was just in high school not too long ago.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yeah, so let's talk about that.

[Jared Morrows]

Let's talk about it.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

How many people died in your high school? And this is four years, five, six years ago. So that's before was even a real thing.

[Jared Morrows]

Yes. I knew of one person who was a friend of mine that passed away, but he was in the same city. We would hang out. He was just in a different high school than me.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay. And how old was he when he died?

[Jared Morrows]

18, 19.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Did you know his parents?

[Jared Morrows]

I would talk to his mom, like, see her, but I didn't know them, like, personally, you know.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Have you ever run into them or heard anything about it after they buried their kid?

[Jared Morrows]

No, I was at the funeral. But since then I left the city I grew up in.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Right. Yeah. That family's finished. Yeah, that family's completely finished.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, I know. I can. I can see. I saw it, like, in person and it's just. It's scary. It's a scary world we live in now. Like, really diving deep into it and knowing friends that still do drugs sometimes, knowing that it's in there. And I'm like, why?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Oh, there's a million reasons why. You don't have to get into that. Yeah. Were you doing drugs in high school?

[Jared Morrows]

Not in high school. In high school, I was a pretty good student. I was like, class president every year. I was like yearbook editor. I was in, like, hella clubs. President of a lot of clubs and Stuff. Got out of high school, made new friends, and then, you know, dabbled in some things here and there. And then I.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Tell me about it.

[Jared Morrows]

I have friends that I would hang out with at that time too, that they're like, oh, my God, how are you doing this? How are you doing this? How are you doing this? And I'm like, by stopping, living another life that I was living and pushing through and being healthy, going to the gym, staying sober, listening to my body, what my body needs, but, you know, self love. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So. So I'll get into that. So I came out of high school and like, I would never drink, smoke nothing in high school. You know, I was just normal kid, going to school, getting good grades, stopping. And then I graduated high school, and that's when Covid hit was really deep, you know, so it's really. There's nothing to do. So I would just hang out with my friends. We play Switch, we play video games. And they were heavy into, you know, pills, drinking, smoking, this and that. So I started picking up smoking for a couple years, trying some of the stuff.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Weed, okay.

[Jared Morrows]

Trying some of the stuff that they were trying. And then it got to a point where I kind of realized, like, I'm waking up, I'm smoking every day, maybe like taking a shot or two, and I'm like, bro, this is like, not what I want to be doing. You know, I had friends that I met over the Internet that I grew up with that started to surpass me in certain creative fields that I was still, like, making YouTube videos, posting tick tocks, posting Instagram videos during this time, you know, and it just made me feel like I wasn't feeling myself on camera, you know, And I want to be fully in control when I'm interviewing someone, when I'm talking to somebody, and just knowing that I'm in my mode and I wouldn't fill in my mode if I would take a drink and just be like. I remember I would go out to do interviews and I'd be like, oh, I have to be drunk to interview. You know, Then I realized, like, wait, no, I don't. Like, I interview way better when I'm sober and when I know what's going on. So slowly, slowly, slowly, I started getting sober. And that's when I looked into. Looked into what I really want to do with my content. And when I was sober, I want to say, like six months, you know, going to the gym every day, meditating, really finding what was going on is when everything changed for me, you know, from One month to the next. It's like I had maybe 2,000 followers posting one to two videos a day, getting a couple hundred views to the next month. I grew a hundred thousand followers. And I really.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Wait, you did a hundred thousand followers? You got a hundred thousand followers in a month?

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, it was in 2023, doing the. The interviews. Yeah, but. And at that time, that's when I was really so focused and locked in. I'm like, I'm gonna post three to four interviews a day with people I find on the street. I'd wake up and I'd just tell my. My friend Grim, like, yo, we're gonna go to the beach. Interview people. We're going to Beverly Hills today. We're going to downtown. And it's a big thing, too, is finding a group of people that believe in your vision. Because I had friends. Sometimes I'd be, yo, let's go film. Let's do this. Let's make some content. And they're like, like, again, whatever. This and that. But I found a good group of people who were very similar to me in that aspect that they make videos. They understand. Like, let's say I'm at a restaurant, I see somebody with a cool fit at the next table, and I'm like, yo, I want to go do a video with a certain group of people. They'd be like, bro, like, that's embarrassing. Why are you gonna get up and go talk to a stranger about his outfit? You know? But I just see it as, this is my job. Go talk to someone here. Like your outfit. If they don't want to do it, they don't want to do it. I move on to the next day, you know?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

But we had a guy here that did that, didn't we? He'd go and he'd do skits on the street. Didn't we, Dylan? Yeah.

[Jared Morrows]

Gerald Houston.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I think his name was Gerald Houston. He's the guy with the Ray Bans that goes up to women.

[Jared Morrows]

Yes. Oh, my God, I love his videos. I saw he did one with. He's like, hey, yo, ddg. Ddg. And it was. What's his face? The food reviewer guy.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Jared Morrows]

And I just think his videos are funny. Love that. Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You just got kid happy. Yeah, I haven't been kid happy since I was a kid.

[Jared Morrows]

It's like, you just did like that. I feel like those are some videos that come on my timeline that I never talked to somebody about. I don't got friends. Like, hey, you seen this new video? So you guys Sing. And I'm like, oh, my God, I've seen those before.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That's so cool.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, I saw that kid. Like, energy.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Hey, will you do me a favor when we. Before we leave?

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Will you follow Dylan? Oh, yeah. Cool.

[Jared Morrows]

Let's do it.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That's right. He loves that, but he loves it when people follow him. Ah, well, he's 22.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I'm 58. He was like, oh, my God, this person's following you. I'm like, who's that person?

[Jared Morrows]

I used to do that a lot, too. And I still. There's still some that. I get giddy. I'm like, oh, my God.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Like, what's funny, though? Here's what's cool. You know, everybody who I've had here has been fantastic. Okay. The one. But aside from that. Ooh, no. Oh, no.

[Jared Morrows]

Is the video up? No, I think it's. You bring good energy. You're easy to talk to. Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

But this one was just, you know.

[Jared Morrows]

I love having easy conversations like this.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Like this one. Yeah, dude. You like having a conversation with me because I lost a quarter century to.

[Jared Morrows]

Drug addiction and I was reading about you, so. I saw that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yeah.

[Jared Morrows]

And when I was reading about me.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yes.

[Jared Morrows]

I gotta know where I'm coming. I saw an article that talked about how you were an addict for so long, you opened the rehabilitation center in Malibu. This and that. You know, I did my research. I know what it is. I feel that way too, as well. But, you know, not as heavy as how your life went down as well. But, you know, I went like three to four years every day, smoking, drinking, trying different things that I look back and I'm like, where did those years go? Like, I feel from 18 to 23. I just wasn't.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Dude, you're a baby.

[Jared Morrows]

No, I know, I know, I know.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That's why anything you want. That's why he donkeyed off. No time at all.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah. But in the long run, I know it's. It's no time, but I'm just glad I was able to find it earlier. And then hopefully somebody watching is like, I'm 18, I'm 17. I'm doing this. Yada, yada, yada. So, yeah, in that way.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Those are fat glasses. What glasses are those?

[Jared Morrows]

My girlfriend made them. She, like, makes glasses and has a low brand, so.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Oh, that's gorgeous. What's the brand name?

[Jared Morrows]

444 your eyes.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

4. 4, 4. Your eyes number 4.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah, the number 4. 444, 3 times. And then. Y O U R E Y E S For your eyes.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That's nice. Yeah, that's nice.

[Jared Morrows]

People always think they're chrome hearts.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

They. They looked like karma.

[Jared Morrows]

I was at the coffee shop the other day, and some dude's like, I love your chrome heart shades. I have shades. I have the same ones. And I'm like, you have the same ones? He's like, bro. Yeah. And they're like, there's.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

They're nicer than chrome hearts. I used to have chrome hearts. Everything.

[Jared Morrows]

They. Yeah, I'm not a fan of chrome hearts.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I gave it all away. Yeah, me neither.

[Jared Morrows]

I. I didn't see a lot.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You want to look hard? Yeah, because, like, the bad boy, and I'm not a bad boy. So it's like, you know, kind of like. Like, if somebody gave me a tattoo, I'd cry, like, a little.

[Jared Morrows]

Do you have any tattoos?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

No. No. I'm scared.

[Jared Morrows]

I was cry. I got a back tattoo. I was crying. Like, if you ask my tattoo artist, he's going to be like, jared was a little right? Cry.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

But you don't bring, like, girls with you to do that.

[Jared Morrows]

No.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

No way. You come, and you won't even bring the boys.

[Jared Morrows]

Yes. And even he was. I was like, yo, can you stop? Can you stop? He's like, I'm not gonna stop. We've taken 15 breaks within the past 10 minutes. I'm gonna finish. And I was like, okay. Then he put my head down. He just started tattooing. I'm like, okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

If I was gonna get a tattoo, I would call somebody to knock me out.

[Jared Morrows]

Yes. Like, literally should have done that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Like, I was having surgery.

[Jared Morrows]

Should have done that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I'd be like, no, I don't do the pain thing. Yeah.

[Jared Morrows]

No, I can't either.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Bummed on the pain thing, man. What's on your mind, man?

[Jared Morrows]

It's on my mind.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yeah. Oh, let's do this.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, yes.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Let's do our new segment.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, what's the new segment?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

The new segment is.

[Jared Morrows]

What do you call it?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay. We call it the Soapbox.

[Jared Morrows]

Yes.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

We're gonna call it something totally different.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay. Later on. Because I hate that name. But it's. You sit there and you can vent for as long as you need to. A two, whatever. 30 seconds. I don't care about anything that is currently pissing you off or annoying you.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, see, like, you're older, so I'm going to say this. You're going to be like, dude, you have so much time. And, like, I get it. Right? But that I've been working so much towards a lot of new aspirations, new things that I want to do in life. And I feel like I need so much more time in the day. I'll wake up, get to work, go to sleep, going to work. And then I'm like, dude, where's the time going? I'm not done with this thing. I'm not done with this thing. I'm not done with this thing. And it's just like a million things on my plate. And I think the thing with me is I don't know how to situate my time correctly and schedule. Then I'm on one project and I'm like, okay, I'm tired of this. Let me hop onto the next project I'm doing. Let me hop on to the next project I'm doing. Then it's the end of the day and I'm like, oh, I still didn't finish the first project. And I'll wake up the next day and keep it going. So I wish I had more time or learn how to schedulate my time better. It's not a word, but I know.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That Schedule 8 is awesome. It's now a word.

[Jared Morrows]

Yes. Do you have any advice for me?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I do, yes. That's called time management.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And along with financial literacy, it's probably those are the two things that are the most important.

[Jared Morrows]

How did you learn time management and.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Your best way Man? I, I think what I did was in college when I was at ucla. Yeah, I went ahead and I was broke. I was so poor, you know, I just flat broke, like nothing. So I listened to Anthony Robbins, I bought his 30 day program and I think that's how I learned time management. And if it wasn't that, it, he recommended that I read and I read that and got time management. But those self help books when I was like now, they wouldn't land. Why? Because I've reached a point in my life where I've already done all those things and they're already habituated in the way I live my life.

[Jared Morrows]

So they wouldn't land with you, but with somebody new coming to them, they would land for you. Yes.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

To be the greatest thing in the world for you.

[Jared Morrows]

Someone my age. Someone my realm.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

No, I'm talking about. Yeah, for you. And well, really anybody starting out that doesn't have a clear direction and has a failure to launch. Right. So failure to launch would be a kid who's 40, still living in his mother's basement playing video games and screaming, hey mom, can you make me a sandwich?

[Jared Morrows]

That's so good. Right?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Like, right, okay. That's a failure to launch. Yeah. So time management is important. And the way I would do it is I would wake up and do your morning routine and then move your body. The meditation, the whatever it is that you have in the morning. Right. Then I'd wake up, shower, and start my day. And, you know, it sounds to me like you've got three or four different things going on. Yeah. Right. So what you do is you. You have blocks of time and you go, okay, from 10 to 1, I'm interviewing people, and then I'm go grab a bite to eat, I'm going to come back. And then from 3 to 5, I'm cutting this up, and then from 6 to 7, I'm posting and doing all my stuff and asking my friends to post and all that nonsense. Right. And whatever this is, you block in the time for it and you add 20 minutes for any one of these major things that you're doing. So that way you don't put pressure on yourself. And then, you know, and you make a list. You put it in your calendar. Right. And then you know what you do?

[Jared Morrows]

What do I do?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Finish something.

[Jared Morrows]

What do I do?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You cross it off the list.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, yeah. It's my favorite thing to do ever. I love coming and talking to people who are very experienced, especially with human interactions like yourself. I know you've probably come across thousands of people opening up your spa out here in Malibu, because I feel like I'm such a baby still when it just comes to this entire new life and maneuvering and creativity and money and friends and family. Because, like, my family all grew up in like, the middle of nowhere in Mexico on a little tiny brick house, you know, so coming here, that's why I like to ask things like that. I know that you've seen people who are. Have had everything go down, come back up, go back down, come back up to you. So I like taking other people's life experiences and see how I can use it, how other people can use it, and just help me and my. My friends, my buddies, my family, my little brother, my mom, my dad. In a way like that.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You want children?

[Jared Morrows]

I do, but not yet. I feel.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Oh, you're.

[Jared Morrows]

I'm. I'm still a child, but I know people my age that have children. Why am I not ready? Why?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Because you're a kid. Yeah. Okay. You're not fully established. Okay. You want to make certain that you.

[Jared Morrows]

Have.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Your ducks in a robe. Yeah. You have kid now. It's never going to be. People think kids cost you money. They make you money. Okay. Trust me on this one. Yeah. So you are going to have children at some point. Yeah. And when you talked about the brick house. Yes. Right. I'm thinking, well, at least it's not straw or wood. Yeah.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Right. And because I used to tell my kids the story before they went to bed about the three little pigs. Right. But I put a little twist on it. Right. Do you want to hear it?

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

So you can tell your kid.

[Jared Morrows]

Ready?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yes. Okay. Daddy, will you tell me the story of the three little pigs? Horse, baby. So once upon a time, there were three little pigs. Okay. There was the baby brother pig, the middle pig, and the older pig, the oldest pig. And one day. Open the door or I'm gonna huff and puff and blow your house down. And this little piggy was, like, afraid because that was the big bad wolf. And so he goes, wait one minute. And then he runs out the back door of the house. Just as he runs out the back door, the wolf hops and puffs and blows the house down. But he runs next door to the middle brother's house, the middle brother's house made out of wood. And he.

[Jared Morrows]

I'm so scared.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Yes. Don't worry. You're here. You're here. Don't worry about it. This is the big bad wolf. Open the door. I'm gonna huff and I'm gonna puff and I'm gonna blow your house down.

[Jared Morrows]

Just wait one minute.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And they run out the back door to the big brother's house. And just as they do that, the wolf huffs and puffs, blows the house to smithereens. But they go next door to their big brother's house. And their big brother has this big, huge, 12,000 square foot, Rick, gorgeous Georgian colonial. Right. I mean, it's breathtaking. And they go next door and they're. And they don't see their. Their older brother. And the door knocks and it's the big bad wolf. And the older brother comes down in his smoking robe, and he's smoking a cigar.

[Jared Morrows]

Does he have that watch on, too?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

He's got the watch.

[Jared Morrows]

Oh, okay.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And he looks at any. And his younger brother's like, don't answer the door. It's the big bad wolf. And so he's like, yeah, whatever. And he walks over and he slides that thing over with the little thing so he can see who's there. And he goes, open this door or I'm gonna huff and puff and blow your house down. And the pig looks at him, blows smoke through the thing, and he goes do what you want. And he closes the door, and the wolf is out of his mind. And he's huffing and he's puffing and he's losing his mind. But what the big brother did was when he closed it, he looks at his two little brothers and he grabs a baseball bat and he says, I'll be right back. Don't open the door. And he goes around the property. And as this guy's puffing and puffing, he goes around and he comes up behind him and he just beats the.

[Jared Morrows]

Out of this guy. Just kicks his.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Grabs him by his hair and tosses him in the garbage. And then what? And he looks at him, he says, don't come back here again. And that's the story of the three little pigs.

[Jared Morrows]

I hear the story. You're a great storyteller. What was that supposed to teach me about the big brother and the younger brothers?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

What? What?

[Jared Morrows]

Well, what would I take away from that story about the big brother helping out his younger brothers, beating the out of a big bad wolf?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Nothing. I just didn't remember the story. I had to tell my kids something.

[Jared Morrows]

I feel like my dad was telling me a bedtime story.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That's right. Yes. What I was doing.

[Jared Morrows]

You're a great story. I feel like you should be an actor. When you went, it's the big bad wolf. Like, I. I envisioned the cop in a movie just like, knocking on the door, like, get out of here.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Was he in a wolf costume?

[Jared Morrows]

No, he wasn't. You. I imagine it with the hat and, like, the little.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Doesn't count.

[Jared Morrows]

You feel?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Doesn't count. Hey.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

How do you think I would do with modeling and fashion?

[Jared Morrows]

I think you would do great. You're great at talking. You got a nice little spiffy shirt on.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Nobody wants to hear from a model talk. That's the whole idea. The models don't know how to talk, so they keep their mouth shut and they do like this.

[Jared Morrows]

I just saw Zoolander the other day and I just. Have you ever seen the movie?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Never.

[Jared Morrows]

It's like, making fun of the fashion industry and they over exaggerate. I forgot the main actor's name is Ben Stiller. They always have him making this face. He's like. Like looking at the camera. But I feel like you. Like, I'm more so. I love going out, talking to people, doing interviews. I think you would kill that. Go out on the block with a mic. Y' all take the cameras. Speak to people. You do great, dude.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

The only.

[Jared Morrows]

I can see you in a Giorgio.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Armani ad in a Giorgio Armani.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Don't they usually have younger cool looking people?

[Jared Morrows]

Maybe it's like, like more of like a musk scent on their new cologne. You're there in the water.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Did I could model the dad jeans and have them up to here, right. And have the flood thing going on. I think that would be badass.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah. I want to style you.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That'd be a great that back. Oh, dude, you feel like you could. You should come back anytime you want and style me up.

[Jared Morrows]

With the vision that you have for this, I think you could do it.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay. Yeah. Okay. Well, if I ever lose all my money, I'll do that.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay. Baby, you don't gotta do it for the money. You gotta do for the love of it.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Oh, no, no. I wouldn't want that.

[Jared Morrows]

Okay. Do you do what you do for love or for the money? Like podcasting this? That.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I do the podcasting because all the kids are dying. And that's why I grabbed a lot of kids in the underground rap scene because it's. It was hurting them the most. And so I wanted to stop that right away. And, you know, they don't want to hear from me, but when they hear from famous Dax or Little Xan or Warhol or somebody like that to. Yeah, this is stupid, you know, so that was just an idea I had. This isn't monetized. We don't have any sponsors or any nonsense like that. We only have 20,000 people an episode listening to this now. But we've been open for five months. Plus.

[Jared Morrows]

I like how you say only because I know you have the vision to like, millions.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Dude, I'm so pissed off. I mean, I know I'm nobody, but I like, do this and I'm like, pissed. I'm like, why don't I have a million people listening to this?

[Jared Morrows]

The thing is, it's great content. It just takes time. Like when I was making.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I want it now.

[Jared Morrows]

Like, I was making videos at one point and I'm like, this is so good. Why is nobody watching? And then you just keep making them and then one day they come. You know, I'm like, you. You know this. You know, two years down the line, you're going to be big dog up on there. Hey, I'm trying to get on Richard's.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Podcast, but you want funny. I was, I was about three weeks ago, I was walking on Main Street.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And three kids with facial tattoos and all the ice and all the ink and the. The baggy pants. They recognized me and they took selfies with me.

[Jared Morrows]

That's awesome. Is that the demographic you're trying to reach?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I'm trying to reach any kid. I'm trying to reach all the kids, because the kids are the ones dying. Because here's the thing. Everybody had a right to experiment with drugs and alcohol when I was kid.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You guys don't have that anymore.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Because we're out of time. Okay? We are out of time. You do one bump of something, and you're dead.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

70% of these things have. And 42% of them have legal lethal doses.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah. That's a big reason why I'm. I thought, I need to become sober. I need to tell my friends or get away from. Tell my friends. Try to help them. You know, a lot of times people don't listen and just move on because you can't integrate into somebody's brain. But I know I have friends that I used to hang out with. Let's say 2019, we were doing this and that. That they're gonna watch this and personally be like, okay, like, this might be another wake up sign. I'm watching Jared. He's done so much in his life while I've still been here that hopefully it reaches them at some point, some way.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

That is so nice. I wish I would have heard it, because the only thing I was thinking about was platform shoes. Do we have platform shoes now? Oh, those are sick.

[Jared Morrows]

Wait, what'd you think I was gonna do?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

You're like, no, no, those are sick.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I knew. Rock those. Oh, God.

[Jared Morrows]

That's what people wear. Really? Yes.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Oh, God. See, I am a fashionista.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah. Yeah. If you go through my pages, a lot of girls wearing this. Emo's wearing it, regular people wearing it. And they love the platforms. They're coming back. They're in.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

They're in. Yeah, they're in. Where are the platforms, too, everybody?

[Jared Morrows]

You can wear the platforms. Chicks can wear the platforms. He can wear the platforms.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I'd be so handsome at six foot six. Six foot five. Okay, six foot four. I'll take six foot four.

[Jared Morrows]

I'll take 6 foot one at that point, then.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Okay, I'll take six foot one.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I really want to be a little taller than you. I'll be six foot two. You can be six foot one.

[Jared Morrows]

Are we not the same height?

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

Sure. All right, bro. So listen. Yes. Thank you so much for coming today.

[Jared Morrows]

Thank you.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I so appreciate. This has been so fun. And thank you for being a great sport. Yeah. As well. You got anything you want to plug? Tell people where you're going to be any. Thank you.

[Jared Morrows]

I'm going to be in Los Angeles. Born and raised out here. I love this city. I love the people of this city. Working on a lot of new series like I said and coming out of my YouTube Instagram tick tock platform. But I didn't come here to plug anything. I just came here to have a good conversation and you see what's going.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

On and your soul is completely good. The fact that guys come here, I love the younger generation who has this social responsibility and wants to come on and talk about something so serious.

[Jared Morrows]

Yeah. And you have a more serious podcast. You know, I've hopped on somewhere. We're like playing games and they're asking me like silly little questions. But coming on, being able to talk about something real that's going on and hopefully someone gets inspired to better themselves is really what it's about nowadays.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

It is. Where can people reach you? What are the handles?

[Jared Morrows]

You've got Jared Morrows on everything. J R E D M U R O s post fashion content. I post interviews with strangers every single day and talk to a lot of different personalities. That's really it. That's what I am.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

And. And I really enjoyed it.

[Jared Morrows]

Thank you.

[Podcast Host (possibly Dylan or another host)]

I really do.

[Jared Morrows]

See you next Tuesday.
