00:00:00.059 --> 00:00:01.004
Hey, what is up?

00:00:01.004 --> 00:00:04.227
Welcome to this episode of the Wantrepreneur to Entrepreneur podcast.

00:00:04.227 --> 00:00:19.865
As always, I'm your host, brian LoFermento, and you probably don't realize this, but I'll tell you it's a big milestone to me, and that is that yesterday was officially the Wantrepreneur to Entrepreneur podcast's eighth birthday.

00:00:19.865 --> 00:00:25.472
It has turned eight years old, 933 episodes in.

00:00:25.472 --> 00:00:35.250
I'm going to give you some of my most important reflections of what a podcast turning eight years old means to me and the things that I've learned from it.

00:00:35.250 --> 00:00:38.009
And I promise I'm going to try to not be too cliche.

00:00:38.009 --> 00:00:39.283
We're not just going to talk about.

00:00:39.283 --> 00:00:41.670
You have to be consistent, you have to be disciplined.

00:00:41.670 --> 00:00:42.880
That's not what this one's about.

00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:46.776
I'm going to share some real insights with you and some real reflections that I've had.

00:00:46.776 --> 00:00:48.581
So I'm excited about this one.

00:00:48.581 --> 00:00:49.582
Let's dive in.

00:00:49.582 --> 00:00:53.530
All right.

00:00:53.530 --> 00:01:14.625
I'm going to be super honest with every single one of you listeners in this episode and, speaking of you listeners, I can't say it often enough how much I appreciate every single one of you who has been, and continues to be, a big part of what the Wantrepreneur to Entrepreneur podcast is, every single thing that we work for and that we work towards.

00:01:14.625 --> 00:01:23.231
It is incredible to me the opportunity that we've had everyone myself and the team behind the scenes of this show all along the years.

00:01:23.231 --> 00:01:34.751
Our team has obviously changed somewhat over the years, but it's just been so much fun for every single one of us, every step of the way, to know that we are serving entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs all over the world.

00:01:34.751 --> 00:01:37.323
Trust me, it's something that brings me a ton of joy.

00:01:37.323 --> 00:01:56.900
I'm a geography geek at the bottom depths of my heart, to even begin with, so I love our metrics and our reports every single month where I see all the different countries that we're reaching listeners in, and I take great pride in the fact that we reach listeners in over 150 countries on planet earth.

00:01:56.900 --> 00:02:10.591
That is crazy to me because it shows really the commonality and the thread of entrepreneurship of change makers worldwide who don't look at their current circumstances and think they're a cog in the system.

00:02:10.591 --> 00:02:13.348
They're entrepreneurs in their DNA.

00:02:13.348 --> 00:02:14.794
It's something that we can't take out of us.

00:02:14.894 --> 00:02:24.884
I cherish and really appreciate and enjoy every single conversation I have with all of our guests, all of you listeners, who are either entrepreneurs or entrepreneurs.

00:02:24.884 --> 00:02:31.407
I cannot tell you enough how much I really appreciate all of those, and it's because we have this.

00:02:31.407 --> 00:02:36.913
It's the same inside of us innately as entrepreneurs is that we are the change makers.

00:02:36.913 --> 00:02:42.439
We believe and we understand that anything is possible, which obviously is one of our founding principles.

00:02:42.439 --> 00:03:00.186
And, of course, behind the show I say it all the time, both on the air and off the air is that a rising tide lifts all boats, and so it's something that we aim to not only preach but practice every single episode, and we're so grateful to all of our guests that do the exact same thing.

00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:04.788
It's truly the reason why our guests come on the air is because they're fellow entrepreneurs.

00:03:04.788 --> 00:03:05.361
They get it.

00:03:05.361 --> 00:03:17.925
They get it more than anyone else on the planet, and so, yeah, that's just my quick thank you, as I really reflect on eight years, but there's two things in particular that I know I want to talk about here on the air.

00:03:17.925 --> 00:03:33.788
Oh, the other thing that I want to come clean with and why I'm saying I'm going to be honest with you Eighth birthday, super exciting, super grateful for a million truly a million reasons when it comes to the show's growth and the fact that we're now a top one and a half percent podcast on the planet.

00:03:33.788 --> 00:03:34.469
That's crazy.

00:03:34.469 --> 00:03:41.772
Across all categories and within business and marketing, we're one of the top 200 in the world, and that is truly remarkable.

00:03:41.772 --> 00:03:50.132
But the fun thing about that is that, even though we're here celebrating eight years because the podcast birthday was yesterday I'm already looking at episode 1000.

00:03:50.132 --> 00:03:55.653
That, to me, is a milestone that I personally never envisioned, never imagined.

00:03:55.653 --> 00:04:06.163
A thousand episodes is a landmark that so few entrepreneurs ever reach or so few podcasters ever reach, and so that's why today I'm going to talk about our eighth year birthday.

00:04:06.163 --> 00:04:08.155
But episode 1000 is right around the corner.

00:04:08.155 --> 00:04:13.590
I think it's mid-December that it'll be airing, so I will, for sure, be doing a very deep dive.

00:04:13.590 --> 00:04:17.572
But there are two things that here on this eighth birthday, I've been reflecting on a lot.

00:04:17.572 --> 00:04:24.154
Now, the first thing really has to do with the very basis of this podcast launching.

00:04:24.154 --> 00:04:25.259
We have to go all the way back.

00:04:25.298 --> 00:04:29.987
This podcast launched in 2016, but truly it was cooking.

00:04:29.987 --> 00:04:32.452
It was conceived in 2015.

00:04:32.452 --> 00:04:39.007
I guess I'll use that analogy, and the reason is is because in 2015, I wrote the book Wantrepreneur to Entrepreneur.

00:04:39.007 --> 00:04:41.298
I had no idea what was going to happen with the book.

00:04:41.298 --> 00:04:43.442
Truly, I had absolutely no idea.

00:04:43.442 --> 00:04:46.187
For me, it was just something that was living in my head.

00:04:46.187 --> 00:04:49.113
I had already been an entrepreneur for seven years.

00:04:49.293 --> 00:04:52.009
At that point, I started my first business when I was 19,.

00:04:52.009 --> 00:04:53.394
All the way back in 2008.

00:04:53.394 --> 00:05:12.124
And so in 2015, after doing a lot of soul searching, a lot of networking, having a lot of conversations with other entrepreneurs, a lot of entrepreneurs everyone everyone from college on always told me I'd love to start my own business, and so I'd been doing it for seven years and I had multiple businesses at that point.

00:05:12.124 --> 00:05:25.148
So I just sat down and, over the span of a few weeks, just everything that was already living inside of my head came out on paper and obviously I published the paperback version of Wantrepreneur to Entrepreneur, which I can tell you.

00:05:25.148 --> 00:05:26.290
Follow me on Instagram.

00:05:26.290 --> 00:05:31.427
I'm going to be giving away a lot more copies of the book over the coming months, just just freely.

00:05:31.427 --> 00:05:37.187
We don't even have a marketing funnel behind it anymore, because I don't sell products to end consumers anymore.

00:05:37.187 --> 00:05:41.043
We just show up on the air five days a week to be of service to all of you.

00:05:41.043 --> 00:05:42.307
So follow me Instagram.

00:05:42.307 --> 00:05:44.992
My Instagram handle is I met Brian.

00:05:44.992 --> 00:05:48.026
Now that you met me on the show, it's I met Brian Super easy to remember.

00:05:48.507 --> 00:06:07.793
So published that book in 2015, had no expectations for it and started waking up to emails from complete strangers all over the world saying, brian, your book was awesome, like it gave me the motivation, it gave me the inspiration, it gave me the perspective shifts that I needed to actually start my business, and that was always the goal.

00:06:07.793 --> 00:06:15.031
The sub headline of the book is what you really need to know to start your first business, and that was the focus of so much.

00:06:15.031 --> 00:06:19.629
What I did at the very beginning was talking about those starting those building blocks.

00:06:19.629 --> 00:06:26.192
Obviously, our content has evolved as I've evolved, as you all have evolved, as our guests have evolved.

00:06:26.192 --> 00:06:36.834
It's something that I said in the very early episodes is I hope that you all grow with this show and hearing from so many of you listeners it's the best part of my job.

00:06:36.834 --> 00:06:49.851
I love the conversations that I have on the air, but what I really love is impact and action, and I love hearing from all of you listeners who reach out because one of our guests inspired you or you got the strategy that you've been looking for.

00:06:49.851 --> 00:07:02.043
Just something clicked, something that we said on the air clicked for you and encouraged you, gave you that dose of whatever it is that you needed to take action so that you go forth and change lives.

00:07:02.043 --> 00:07:06.341
And it's so cool, those ripple effects that we can all have through entrepreneurship.

00:07:06.382 --> 00:07:17.646
But the reason why I tell you this backstory is because, after I published my book in 2015, oh, what I was going to say let me close the loop on that is that I was waking up to emails from people saying how do we get more?

00:07:17.646 --> 00:07:21.384
And I thought about it for a year and I thought should I write a second book?

00:07:21.384 --> 00:07:31.906
I actually outlined my second book, truth Be Told, and that's going to factor into what I'm going to share with you in a little bit and so I thought should I write a second book?

00:07:31.906 --> 00:07:32.668
Should I start a podcast?

00:07:32.668 --> 00:07:33.391
What exactly should I do?

00:07:33.391 --> 00:07:42.115
And in the end, obviously a year later, in 2016, I launched the podcast, and here we are, 933 episodes later.

00:07:42.115 --> 00:07:59.062
But it all truly did start with the book Wantrepreneur to Entrepreneur, and that's why I'm starting our storytelling today by focusing on that, because when I published the book, I received a lot of comments from a lot of other people saying, oh, I've been working on my book for a long time.

00:07:59.062 --> 00:08:06.202
Or oh, I've always had the outline of a book that I really want to write, or I heard from so many people it's never been easier to write a book.

00:08:06.242 --> 00:08:07.607
By the way, anyone can write a book.

00:08:07.607 --> 00:08:09.420
You can just self-publish on Amazon.

00:08:09.420 --> 00:08:13.088
The Kindle Direct program is truly a remarkable program.

00:08:13.088 --> 00:08:30.505
Amazon has mastered the art of self-publishing, which is why even a lot of best-selling books are self-published books these days, and so I just all of a sudden, was hearing all of these things from people about how remarkable it is to actually publish a book, and I loved getting those kudos.

00:08:30.505 --> 00:08:33.809
I really appreciated it, because a lot of work does go into it.

00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:43.293
Truth be told, a ton of work goes into it, and what I've really been reflecting on lately, it's been nine years since I published the book.

00:08:43.293 --> 00:08:54.464
Actually, next month it'll be nine years officially of publishing the book Entrepreneur to Entrepreneur, and I don't think I've reflected enough about it, because to me it feels so long ago and obviously it sparked a new life.

00:08:54.464 --> 00:08:59.943
It was the birth of something else, which became this podcast, and it's something that I love.

00:08:59.943 --> 00:09:00.926
I love podcasting.

00:09:00.926 --> 00:09:07.440
It's right at the top of the list of things that I genuinely love doing on this planet and in this life.

00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:17.754
It gives me so much energy, and so, because of the eighth birthday, I've been thinking about the beginning of this show and I can't help but come back to the book always.

00:09:17.836 --> 00:09:24.745
And when I do come back to the book, what I think of is what I just said to you a few minutes ago, which is anyone can write a book.

00:09:24.745 --> 00:09:26.871
It's a lot of work, but anyone can write a book.

00:09:26.871 --> 00:09:52.565
And it reminds me of all the books over the past nine years that I've heard from people that are just in their heads or in the notes app on their iPhone, or in a Google doc or just somewhere that doesn't exist just yet, and it really put into perspective for me that, for one reason or another, I was just more willing than all of these other people at the time, the people who didn't publish.

00:09:52.565 --> 00:09:55.450
I was just more willing to publish.

00:09:55.450 --> 00:10:01.538
I was just more willing to actually put the thing into the world.

00:10:01.538 --> 00:10:02.384
That's it.

00:10:02.384 --> 00:10:05.631
I'm not any more qualified than anybody else.

00:10:05.631 --> 00:10:08.298
I'm not any more capable than anyone else.

00:10:08.357 --> 00:10:09.408
Like I said, it's a lot of work.

00:10:09.408 --> 00:10:15.191
It's a lot of work for all of us, even if we talk to you know, the Michael Kings, stephen Kings of the world.

00:10:15.191 --> 00:10:20.177
Excuse me, he's a fellow New Englander, I shouldn't botch his name Even if we talk to the Stephen Kings of the world excuse me, he's a fellow New Englander.

00:10:20.177 --> 00:10:22.759
I shouldn't botch his name, even if we talk to the Stephen Kings of the world, who seem to churn out a book every other day.

00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:31.150
Even for the Stephen Kings of the world, who have hundreds of book titles, bestsellers, under their name, it's a lot of work for them, it's a lot of work for everybody.

00:10:31.150 --> 00:10:52.956
But at the end of the day, the only books that we've ever heard of, the only podcasts that we've ever heard of, the only businesses we've ever heard of, are the ones that someone was just more willing than most other people to hit publish on, and I think we don't talk about that often enough.

00:10:52.956 --> 00:11:00.307
I know that I don't talk about it often enough, and so that's why I'm really using this eighth birthday episode to talk a lot about.

00:11:00.307 --> 00:11:04.940
That is just be more willing than others to hit publish.

00:11:04.940 --> 00:11:14.211
There's so much value in that that I don't think I fully appreciate it until really the past couple of weeks as I've been reflecting on this eighth birthday of the show.

00:11:14.854 --> 00:11:18.009
Is it all started just through my willingness to hit publish?

00:11:18.009 --> 00:11:27.671
Publish, because I promise you it's not any more ready for prime time than anybody else's shell of a book, because there are errors in my book.

00:11:27.671 --> 00:11:29.356
When I read through it I see them.

00:11:29.356 --> 00:11:30.942
They're glaring errors to me.

00:11:30.942 --> 00:11:36.667
It's not a perfect book and in fact, there's a lot of things that have changed over the past almost decade.

00:11:36.667 --> 00:11:47.688
There's some tools that I referenced in there that I'm like ah, I wish I didn't put in those tools, because those tools have changed or maybe now they cost a lot of money and they're not tools that I personally use anymore because they are just too expensive.

00:11:47.688 --> 00:11:53.488
There's a lot of things when I read the book, but I'm proud of the fact that I just hit publish.

00:11:53.908 --> 00:11:56.413
There were so many reasons for me not to publish it.

00:11:56.413 --> 00:12:08.330
There's so many reasons for you not to publish it, or for any wannabe author to not hit publish, or for any wantrepreneur to not hit publish, or for anyone to wait and not hit publish on anything in life.

00:12:08.330 --> 00:12:10.591
But that's not what it's about.

00:12:10.591 --> 00:12:19.451
We'll never hear about or get served by, or read or consume or get inspired by the books that people never hit publish on.

00:12:19.451 --> 00:12:20.927
We need to hit publish.

00:12:20.927 --> 00:12:22.191
We need to do it a lot.

00:12:22.191 --> 00:12:24.476
We need to keep publishing every single day.

00:12:24.846 --> 00:12:28.996
I've been publishing 933 times on this show and I'm going to be here for a lot longer.

00:12:28.996 --> 00:12:41.350
We've got an awesome team in place and a lot of really incredible systems and just the most amazing guests on planet earth that I'm so grateful to have in our circle, in our community, and so you need to publish.

00:12:41.350 --> 00:12:44.357
It's really one of the things that I've been thinking about the most.

00:12:44.357 --> 00:12:58.192
And then the second is just inevitably, when we talk about eight years of this show being in existence and eight years of anything in our lives, and eight years just of our lives in general, think about what the world was like in 2016.

00:12:58.192 --> 00:13:00.649
Think about what you were like in 2016.

00:13:00.749 --> 00:13:02.373
So much has changed since then.

00:13:02.373 --> 00:13:03.154
I know.

00:13:03.154 --> 00:13:04.738
For me, it most certainly has.

00:13:04.738 --> 00:13:07.049
In 2016, I was still living in Boston.

00:13:07.049 --> 00:13:08.934
I've since moved to Los Angeles.

00:13:08.934 --> 00:13:10.745
I've since moved back to the East Coast.

00:13:10.745 --> 00:13:11.889
I live in Tampa, florida.

00:13:11.889 --> 00:13:12.129
Now.

00:13:12.129 --> 00:13:16.027
A lot of things have changed personally, professionally.

00:13:16.027 --> 00:13:17.350
My businesses have changed.

00:13:17.350 --> 00:13:23.476
Some businesses have closed, some have sold, some have been really successful, some have not been as successful.

00:13:23.476 --> 00:13:24.606
I've had a million ideas.

00:13:24.667 --> 00:13:33.914
Since then, everything's changed and it's why this week in particular, you know I talk to so many entrepreneurs every single week of my life.

00:13:33.914 --> 00:13:34.636
It's such.

00:13:34.636 --> 00:13:36.289
That's how I have so much energy.

00:13:36.289 --> 00:13:38.075
When people ask me how I have so much energy.

00:13:38.075 --> 00:13:44.990
Just surround yourself with entrepreneurial energy, because these are dreamers, we're doers, we are change makers.

00:13:44.990 --> 00:13:50.572
We light up the world in so many different ways, and this week I want to shout out one entrepreneur in particular that I talked to.

00:13:50.572 --> 00:13:51.895
His name is Philip Brown.

00:13:51.895 --> 00:13:58.573
He's the founder of Echo Advisory Solutions, which is a financial services firm based out of Dallas, texas.

00:13:58.573 --> 00:14:00.235
Philip's incredible.

00:14:00.235 --> 00:14:11.595
He's the exact type of entrepreneur that I'm so appreciative, not only to know, but genuinely I'm so appreciative that people like him exist and are of service to others and use their gifts and talents.

00:14:11.595 --> 00:14:19.865
And actually, in my conversation with Philip, it was just such a reminder as to how much he invested in gaining skills so then he could turn around and serve others.

00:14:19.865 --> 00:14:45.788
And we had such a great conversation and both of us I feel like we simultaneously arrived at a quote that we both share a passion for, which is from Martin Luther King jr, who I've done so many episodes about ever since the very beginnings of this podcast, is one of the most influential historical figures In my opinion, certainly someone who, studying his words of wisdom, have shaped and guided my view of the world.

00:14:45.808 --> 00:14:46.249
And he said that quote.

00:14:46.249 --> 00:14:47.871
You don't have to see the whole staircase.

00:14:47.871 --> 00:14:50.496
Just take the first step.

00:14:50.496 --> 00:14:52.528
And it's.

00:14:52.528 --> 00:14:52.789
Since.

00:14:52.789 --> 00:15:05.428
There's so many different versions of that quote, and one, because I'm visual, that also really sticks with me is when we're driving at night, all we can see is as far as our headlights, but that's perfectly far enough to get us along our journey.

00:15:05.428 --> 00:15:16.410
And when I think about that and really reflect on that, when I recorded episode zero eight years ago truly eight years ago to the day I didn't know what this podcast would become.

00:15:16.511 --> 00:15:23.436
I had hopes, I had dreams, I had visions, I knew my own values and I knew some of the things that I'd like to implement.

00:15:23.436 --> 00:15:40.672
But I couldn't have envisioned all of the things that it's become All of you entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs around the world, that it touches and that it impacts and that it's inspired for you all to start your own businesses where you now touch and serve and impact so many of your incredible customers, clients and just your audiences at large.

00:15:40.672 --> 00:15:44.676
I could not have envisioned that we become five days a week.

00:15:44.676 --> 00:15:47.354
That's wild to me and something that I'm very proud of.

00:15:47.354 --> 00:16:08.557
I could not have envisioned all of these amazing entrepreneurs who give so much value on the air and who really do share our vision and our values for bringing this entrepreneurial content raw, unfiltered, unscripted, to entrepreneurs and entrepreneurs all over the world so that you can have an unfair advantage in growing your own business.

00:16:08.557 --> 00:16:17.854
It's so incredible to find this community and this network of other entrepreneurs who share our spirit and our excitement and our energy for doing exactly that.

00:16:17.854 --> 00:16:25.865
Obviously, it speaks so much to our founding principle of a rising tide lifts all boats and I couldn't have envisioned any of this.

00:16:25.946 --> 00:16:37.219
And going back to that Dr MLK quote, it's just, it's fascinating to think about all the twists and turns and you hear it from all of our guests and their nonlinear journeys.

00:16:37.219 --> 00:16:54.164
And I think really what I want to reflect on is not just to make that point here today with you and for you, but just to give you that invitation to recognize and own and step into the fact that we actually don't need to know where we're going.

00:16:54.164 --> 00:16:57.613
We actually don't need to know what things are going to become.

00:16:57.613 --> 00:17:04.603
I know we talk a lot on the air about plans and strategies and having a roadmap and I'm a big believer in all of those things.

00:17:04.603 --> 00:17:12.089
Of course, I always have kind of those North Star guideposts that are leading me at least in the direction that I want.

00:17:12.089 --> 00:17:20.471
But, truth be told, no matter how much we plan, no matter how much we strategize, no matter how detailed our roadmap is, there's always going to be detours along the way.

00:17:20.471 --> 00:17:27.868
And that, to me, is one of the most beautiful things, not only of business, but one of the most beautiful things of all of life.

00:17:27.868 --> 00:17:31.128
And, again, I don't think we talk about it often enough.

00:17:31.189 --> 00:17:34.728
When I started this podcast, it was classic podcasting style.

00:17:34.728 --> 00:17:36.326
I mean, it was one of my top of funnel.

00:17:36.326 --> 00:17:36.907
At that time.

00:17:36.907 --> 00:17:49.949
I was creating and selling online courses, I was creating and selling retreats in person and those were such a blessing and I had so much fun helping entrepreneurs on that basis and it served as a top of funnel.

00:17:49.949 --> 00:18:03.044
So many of you listeners have been here with me for a very long time and I appreciate every single one of you, and podcasting is a great medium and platform for you to build and engage with your audience and have it serve the rest of your business.

00:18:03.044 --> 00:18:12.692
But along the way, I stopped doing those things and I kept podcasting and I kept showing up and you kept showing up and tuning in, and I'm so appreciative of that.

00:18:12.692 --> 00:18:15.988
I didn't know what it would become, and every single step of the way.

00:18:15.988 --> 00:18:19.147
I've just ridden the waves and just taken that next step.

00:18:19.760 --> 00:18:22.209
I don't know what we're going to be five years from now.

00:18:22.209 --> 00:18:24.267
I don't know what we're going to be a year from now.

00:18:24.267 --> 00:18:26.307
I can tell you that we're going to be very different.

00:18:26.307 --> 00:18:36.836
Our team, we have been working seriously the past 30 days.

00:18:36.836 --> 00:18:39.404
It's so hard for me to be as excited as I am and not be able to have things as fleshed out as I'd like them to be, to just publicly declare holy cow.

00:18:39.404 --> 00:18:41.849
These are all the things that we're rolling out for 2025 and beyond, but that's coming soon.

00:18:41.849 --> 00:18:43.116
That is coming very soon.

00:18:43.116 --> 00:18:44.161
We're really excited about that.

00:18:44.161 --> 00:18:46.765
A lot of people are working really hard on all of these things.

00:18:46.765 --> 00:18:51.233
So, yeah, just a lot of excitement to come in the future.

00:18:51.354 --> 00:18:58.865
But I think that it's yet another example of the fact that we don't know what we're always going to become and we don't know where we're going to end up.

00:18:58.865 --> 00:19:00.711
But just keep taking those steps.

00:19:00.711 --> 00:19:02.344
It's what I've done for eight years.

00:19:02.344 --> 00:19:04.313
It's how we got to this point in eight years.

00:19:04.313 --> 00:19:06.480
Be more willing than others to publish.

00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:09.346
Just keeping those and just keep taking those steps.

00:19:09.346 --> 00:19:22.751
It's two of my biggest reflections and I hope that somewhere along the way in this episode most importantly, as with all episodes I hope it resonates with where you need and what you need in this moment in your own life and in your own business.

00:19:22.832 --> 00:19:36.403
Because, like I said, we've been here for eight years you all are the ones that make this show, you listeners, because without listeners, a podcast is just a collection of MP3 files and a bunch of people talking into microphones with nobody listening.

00:19:36.403 --> 00:19:44.008
So you listeners, you're the ones that take it from that to an actual show with impact that reaches a lot of people around the world.

00:19:44.008 --> 00:19:45.352
That I'm super grateful for.

00:19:45.352 --> 00:19:47.787
So here's to eight years.

00:19:47.787 --> 00:19:58.301
Eight years not of me, eight years, not just of this podcast, but eight years of just entrepreneurs growing together, going together, just doing all the things together.

00:19:58.301 --> 00:20:00.847
So thank you all for eight years.

00:20:00.847 --> 00:20:02.771
Here's to another eight and beyond.

00:20:02.771 --> 00:20:05.670
Who knows what the world's going to look like eight years from now?

00:20:05.670 --> 00:20:20.434
But we're going to keep on rocking and rolling and, at least for the foreseeable future, pound that subscribe button because I say, at least for the foreseeable future, we're going to stay here, but I say it because, at least for the foreseeable future, we're five days a week every Monday, wednesday, friday, saturday, sunday.

00:20:20.434 --> 00:20:39.181
That's why I tell you to pound that subscribe button, because, truth be told, you're in for a real treat this week, next week, the week after that and so far into the future, because I'm really proud and excited about all the guests that you're going to hear from in the coming weeks, months and years.

00:20:39.181 --> 00:20:42.170
So let's keep on rocking and rolling, let's keep being that rising tide that lifts all boats and let's keep being of service.

00:20:42.170 --> 00:20:42.570
That's it for me.

00:20:42.570 --> 00:20:57.025
