line:85% position:36% size:73% FOR DAN AND I, THIS IS A REAL line:85% position:15% size:33% TREAT FOR US.
line:85% position:33% size:70% YES, IT COMES WITH SOME REAL line:85% position:44% size:78% FEAR AND TREPIDATION OF DOING A line:85% position:15% size:33% LIVE PODCAST.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THE RADIO line:85% position:40% size:75% SHOW THAT WE DO IN NEW YORK IS line:85% position:16% size:38% HEAVILY EDITED.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:33% size:70% SO THIS WITHOUT THE VALUE OF line:85% position:44% size:78% HAVING THE SCISSORS IS GOING TO line:85% position:50% size:80% BE AN INTERESTING EXPERIENCE FOR line:85% position:13% size:20% BOTH US.
line:85% position:40% size:75% BUT WHEN SHELLY ZEGART OFFERED line:85% position:44% size:78% THIS OPPORTUNITY TO US, WE BOTH line:85% position:15% size:33% JUMPED AT IT.
line:85% position:44% size:78% MOSTLY BECAUSE SHE'S IMPOSSIBLE line:85% position:15% size:33% TO SAY NO TO.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:36% size:73% AND ALSO A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE line:85% position:36% size:73% THE CHANCE TO BE ABLE TO COME line:85% position:50% size:80% BACK TO OUR HOMETOWN AND BE ABLE line:85% position:33% size:70% TO DO A PODCAST IS SOMETHING line:85% position:15% size:33% VERY SPECIAL.
line:85% position:29% size:65% IN TERMS OF BACKGROUND, WE line:85% position:29% size:65% ALWAYS WANTED TO DO RADIO.
line:85% position:40% size:75% I CAN REMEMBER BUYING A HOW-TO line:85% position:44% size:78% PAM LET ME WRITTEN BY IRA GLASS line:85% position:36% size:73% OF THIS AMERICAN LIFE BACK IN line:85% position:15% size:35% THE MID-1990s.
line:85% position:29% size:65% NOTHING EVER CAME OF THAT, line:85% position:33% size:70% LUCKILY, 20 YEARS LATER, THE line:85% position:29% size:65% PODCASTING SCENE EXPLODED, line:85% position:50% size:80% TECHNOLOGY CAME TO ALLOW ROOKIES line:85% position:33% size:70% LIKE OURSELVES TO BE ABLE TO line:85% position:44% size:78% JUMP INTO RADIO WITHOUT NEEDING line:85% position:40% size:75% A LOT OF EQUIPMENT AND EXPENSE line:85% position:50% size:80% AND THERE IS VERY LITTLE BARRIER line:85% position:13% size:23% TO ENTRY.
line:85% position:44% size:78% THAT'S MY SALES PITCH FOR DOING line:85% position:13% size:25% A PODCAST.
line:85% position:40% size:75% BUT THE VALUE, I THINK, FOR US line:85% position:27% size:63% IS THAT WE SPENT 20 YEARS line:85% position:44% size:78% THINKING THAT THIS IS SOMETHING line:85% position:44% size:78% THAT WE WANTED TO DO EVENTUALLY line:85% position:33% size:70% HAVE AND IT JUST CAME AT THE line:85% position:25% size:60% RIGHT TIME OF OUR LIVES.
line:85% position:29% size:65% SO I WOULD SAY FIRST IS MY line:85% position:40% size:75% LESSON IS, KEEP THAT LONG-TERM line:85% position:22% size:55% GOAL TO-DO LIST HANDY.
line:85% position:50% size:80% YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU MIGHT BE line:85% position:33% size:70% ABLE TO FULFILL ONE OF THOSE line:85% position:50% size:80% THINGS THAT YOU SET YOUR MIND TO line:85% position:20% size:50% WHEN YOU WERE YOUNG.
line:85% position:25% size:60% FOR US, DANNY AND I WERE line:85% position:31% size:68% AMATEURS, CERTAINLY WHEN IT line:85% position:16% size:38% COMES TO RADIO.
line:85% position:33% size:70% BUT WE DO HAVE EXPERIENCE IN line:85% position:50% size:80% BUSINESS, AND WE FEEL LIKE A LOT line:85% position:50% size:80% OF THAT EXPERIENCE COMES TO PLAY line:85% position:44% size:78% IN THE QUESTIONS THAT WE ASK OF line:85% position:17% size:43% OUR INTERVIEWEES.
line:85% position:44% size:78% IT COMES IN THE WAY IN WHICH WE line:85% position:50% size:80% TALK ABOUT THE BUSINESS TOPIC OF line:85% position:29% size:65% THE DAY AND WE THINK WE AS line:85% position:44% size:78% PRACTITIONERS HAVE AN ADVANTAGE line:85% position:40% size:75% OVER THOSE WHO ARE SHOCK JOCKS line:85% position:50% size:80% WHO ARE JUST THERE TO GET A RISE line:85% position:21% size:53% AND TO GET LISTENERS.
line:85% position:33% size:70% WE NEED TO PAY OUR BILLS AND line:85% position:31% size:68% PODCAST DOES NOT PAY BILLS.
line:85% position:44% size:78% WE'RE HERING, PURELY BECAUSE IT line:85% position:50% size:80% IS SOMETHING THAT WE ENJOY DOING line:85% position:36% size:73% TOGETHER AND WE THINK THAT IT line:85% position:20% size:50% PROVIDES REAL VALUE.
line:85% position:19% size:48% DAN AND I ARE PROUD line:85% position:15% size:35% LOUISVILLIANS.
line:85% position:29% size:65% WE OBVIOUSLY GREW UP HERE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% WE GREW UP IN THE HIGHLANDS AND line:85% position:21% size:53% MOVED TO SENECA PARK.
line:85% position:33% size:70% WE HAVE OUR PARENTS THAT ARE line:85% position:14% size:28% STILL HERE.
line:85% position:31% size:68% OUR AUNT AND UNCLE IS HERE.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND MUCH TO OUR KIDS CHAGRIN, line:85% position:31% size:68% HOWEVER, THEY ARE NOT HERE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THEY LIVE IN MANHATTAN, BROOKLYN line:85% position:50% size:80% BUT DANNY AND I BROUGHT OUR BOYS line:85% position:40% size:75% TO LOUISVILLE LAST MONTH FOR A line:85% position:40% size:75% WEEK-LONG BASKETBALL CAMP, THE line:85% position:50% size:80% REJEAN RONDO BASKETBALL CAMP AND line:85% position:44% size:78% WHILE THEY WERE WALKING THROUGH line:85% position:29% size:65% THE AIRPORT, THE BOYS WERE line:85% position:44% size:78% TALKING TO EACH OTHER, AND THEY line:85% position:50% size:80% SAID, YOU KNOW, I JUST FEEL LIKE line:85% position:50% size:80% I FIT IN MORE HERE IN LOUISVILLE line:85% position:15% size:35% THAN NEW YORK.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND IT WAS LIKE YOU FIT IN MORE?
line:85% position:17% size:43% YOU'RE CITY KIDS.
line:85% position:27% size:63% YOU'RE NOT LOUISVILLIANS.
line:85% position:31% size:68% AND I THINK PROBABLY A FAIR line:85% position:50% size:80% AMOUNT OF IT HAPPENED TO BE THEY line:85% position:40% size:75% WERE BOTH WEARING THEIR U OF L line:85% position:40% size:75% NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP T-SHIRTS line:85% position:50% size:80% SO THAT DOESN'T PLAY WELL UNFORT line:85% position:27% size:63% MY IN -- UNFORTUNATELY IN line:85% position:13% size:23% NEW YORK.
line:85% position:33% size:70% WE HAVE TO RECOGNIZE THAT WE line:85% position:31% size:68% HAVE LIVED IN NEW YORK CITY line:85% position:40% size:75% LONGER THAN EITHER OF US LIVED line:85% position:44% size:78% IN LOUISVILLE AND SO WE DO HAVE line:85% position:27% size:63% SOME BIG CITY INFLUENCES.

line:85% position:40% size:75% AND I THINK IT SHOWED A LITTLE line:85% position:50% size:80% BIT OF WHERE I WAS LACKING BASED line:85% position:31% size:68% OFF OF MY KIND OF BIG WORLD line:85% position:40% size:75% EXPERIENCE AS HAVING NOT GROWN line:85% position:44% size:78% UP IN A LOT OF THE SAME CIRCLES line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT A LOT OF MY COLLEAGUES AT line:85% position:18% size:45% GOLDMAN SACHS HAD.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AT THE SAME TIME, GOLDMAN WAS line:85% position:40% size:75% THE KIND OF PLACE THAT IT GAVE line:85% position:36% size:73% YOU AS MUCH ROPE AS YOU COULD line:85% position:12% size:18% HANDLE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% YOU COULD DO WELL, YOU GOT MORE line:85% position:16% size:38% RESPONSIBILITY.
line:85% position:44% size:78% BUT IT IS ALSO THE PLACE LIKE A line:85% position:33% size:70% LOT OF BIG FIRMS AND I WON'T line:85% position:44% size:78% EVEN PICK ON BIG BANKS BUT ONCE line:85% position:40% size:75% YOU WORK THERE FOR A FEW YEARS line:85% position:44% size:78% AGO IT IS HARD TO GET OUT AND I line:85% position:40% size:75% ALWAYS HAD THIS DREAM OF BEING line:85% position:27% size:63% ABLE TO DO SOMETHING MORE line:85% position:14% size:28% PRE-KNEWAL.

line:85% position:25% size:60% OUR GRANDFATHER MOVED TO line:85% position:50% size:80% LOUISVILLE, FROM CHICAGO BACK IN line:85% position:13% size:20% THE 30s.
line:85% position:50% size:80% HIS BACKGROUND IN CHICAGO HE PUT line:85% position:40% size:75% HIMSELF THROUGH COLLEGE, NIGHT line:85% position:33% size:70% SCHOOL BY BEING A SODA JERK.
line:85% position:31% size:68% A SODA JERK FOR PRETTY MUCH line:85% position:44% size:78% EVERYBODY WHO IS -- UNLESS THEY line:85% position:50% size:80% ARE OF A WORLD WAR II GENERATION line:85% position:36% size:73% WHICH I DON'T THINK WE HAVE A line:85% position:40% size:75% LOT IN THE ROOM THAT SODA JERK line:85% position:40% size:75% THINK OF IT AS THE BARRISTA OF line:85% position:50% size:80% STARBUCKS FOR THE MILK SHAKE SET line:85% position:40% size:75% SO IF MY GRANDFATHER SERVED UP line:85% position:31% size:68% SOMETHING SPECIAL, JUST THE line:85% position:33% size:70% RIGHT CONCOCTION AND IN THAT line:85% position:29% size:65% ROLE, HE ENDED UP BECOMING line:85% position:27% size:63% FRIENDLY WITH A NUMBER OF line:85% position:13% size:25% CUSTOMERS.
line:85% position:36% size:73% ONE OF WHOM WAS AN ACCOUNTANT line:85% position:36% size:73% WHO FELT MY GRANDFATHER WOULD line:85% position:44% size:78% MAKE FOR A GREAT ACCOUNTANT AND line:85% position:36% size:73% HE RECRUITED HIM TO HIS FIRM.
line:85% position:33% size:70% MY GRANDFATHER LEFT THE SODA line:85% position:40% size:75% JERK BUSINESS AND MADE HIS WAY line:85% position:40% size:75% TO DIFFERENT AUDIT WORK AROUND line:85% position:13% size:20% CHICAGO.
line:85% position:50% size:80% FIRST TO FRENCH LICK AND THEN TO line:85% position:50% size:80% THE BROWN HOTEL WHERE HE WAS THE line:85% position:40% size:75% BROWN HOTEL NIGHT AUDITOR HERE line:85% position:20% size:50% IN THE CITY IN 1938. line:85% position:31% size:68% HE QUICKLY REALIZED THAT HE line:85% position:31% size:68% WOULD RATHER BE WORKING FOR line:85% position:33% size:70% HIMSELF THAN WORKING FOR THE line:85% position:14% size:30% BROWN HOTEL.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND LAUNCHED HIS OWN ACCOUNTING line:85% position:44% size:78% PRACTICE WHICH I'M HAPPY TO SAY line:85% position:25% size:60% IS STILL GROWING STRONG.
line:85% position:50% size:80% IT IS ALMOST 80 YEARS OLD, LEWIS line:85% position:20% size:50% T. ROTH AND COMPANY.
line:85% position:44% size:78% MY BROTHER AND I CERTAINLY FEEL line:85% position:44% size:78% VERY STRONGLY ABOUT LOUISVILLE, line:85% position:29% size:65% JUST GIVEN KIND OF OUR OWN line:85% position:44% size:78% RELATIONSHIP AND THINKING ABOUT line:85% position:44% size:78% THAT STORY AND KNOWING HOW LONG line:85% position:18% size:45% WE HAVE BEEN HERE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND IT IS SOMETHING THAT WE WEAR line:85% position:40% size:75% LOUISVILLE AND KENTUCKY ON OUR line:85% position:20% size:50% SLEEVE ALL THE TIME.
line:85% position:44% size:78% SO WHEN I'M IN NEW YORK, I MAKE line:85% position:44% size:78% MORE REFERENCES AND COMMENTS TO line:85% position:44% size:78% THINGS THAT ARE PROBABLY REALLY line:85% position:36% size:73% TANGENTIAL TO KENTUCKY AND TO line:85% position:40% size:75% LOUISVILLE BUT IT IS IMPORTANT line:85% position:44% size:78% THAT PEOPLE UNDERSTAND WHO HAVE line:85% position:29% size:65% NO IDEA WHAT STATES BORDER line:85% position:44% size:78% KENTUCKY WHO HAVE ONLY LIVED ON line:85% position:33% size:70% THE EAST COAST AND HAVE ONLY line:85% position:50% size:80% GONE TO SCHOOL ON THE EAST COAST line:85% position:33% size:70% AND HAVE FRIENDS ON THE EAST line:85% position:50% size:80% COAST THAT KENTUCKY ACTUALLY HAS line:85% position:50% size:80% CULTURE, SOPHISTICATION, SMARTS, line:85% position:31% size:68% KNOWLEDGE AND INTELLIGENCE.
line:85% position:18% size:45% BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
line:85% position:44% size:78% EVERYBODY FROM THESE BIG CITIES line:85% position:24% size:58% STILL UNDERESTIMATE US.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND WE SHOULD BE -- PROBABLY line:85% position:40% size:75% SHOULDN'T GET THE WORD OUT TOO line:85% position:36% size:73% MUCH BECAUSE IT IS NICE BEING line:85% position:15% size:33% THE UNDERDOG.
line:85% position:50% size:80% BEING THE UNDERDOG MEANS MEANS T line:85% position:36% size:73% YOU FIGHT A LITTLE HARDER FOR line:85% position:44% size:78% YOUR VALUES AND WHO YOU ARE AND line:85% position:29% size:65% YOU DON'T TAKE FOR GRANTED line:85% position:33% size:70% BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT PART OF A line:85% position:36% size:73% CLUB THAT AUTOMATICALLY TAKES line:85% position:18% size:45% YOU IN A BIG CITY.
line:85% position:36% size:73% YOU CAN'T RERELY ON CHILDHOOD line:85% position:33% size:70% FRIENDS TO GET THAT YOU JOB.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND SO, WHEN LOUISVILLE WIN AS line:85% position:25% size:60% NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP IN line:85% position:29% size:65% BASKETBALL, YOUR OFFICE IS line:85% position:29% size:65% COLORED IN RED, WHITE, AND line:85% position:12% size:15% BLACK.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT IT IS A line:85% position:36% size:73% GOING TO BE A GOOD DAY IN THE line:85% position:12% size:18% OFFICE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% BUT IT ALSO MEANS THAT FOR THE line:85% position:44% size:78% THINGS THAT WE HAVE DONE IN OUR line:85% position:40% size:75% CAREER, WE VERY MUCH ATTRIBUTE line:85% position:29% size:65% THAT BACK TO WHO WE ARE AS line:85% position:44% size:78% PEOPLE BECAUSE OF OUR ROLE HERE line:85% position:15% size:35% IN LOUISVILLE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% I THINK THAT PEOPLE HERE ASSUME line:85% position:29% size:65% THAT PEOPLE ARE GOOD UNTIL line:85% position:17% size:43% PROVEN OTHERWISE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND THEY DON'T HAVE HUBERUS AND line:85% position:36% size:73% THAT ACTUALLY WILL TAKE YOU A line:85% position:13% size:23% LONG WAY.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND EMOTIONALLY, I'M STILL THERE line:85% position:50% size:80% AND I DON'T THINK THAT DEFINES A line:85% position:40% size:75% LOT OF PEOPLE THAT GROW UP AND line:85% position:36% size:73% ONLY SEE THE WORLD FROM A BIG line:85% position:17% size:43% CITY PERSPECTIVE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% SO BEING THERE ACTUALLY WAS WHEN line:85% position:27% size:63% I WAS WALKING THROUGH THE line:85% position:40% size:75% AIRPORT TODAY, THERE WAS AN AD line:85% position:33% size:70% FROM AN INVESTMENT FIRM THAT line:85% position:27% size:63% SAID, YOU KNOW, PERFECTLY line:85% position:36% size:73% SITUATED, 738 MILES FROM WALL line:85% position:12% size:18% STREET.
line:85% position:44% size:78% I THINK I'M 738 MILES FROM WALL line:85% position:20% size:50% STREET ALL THE TIME, line:85% position:50% size:80% EMOTIONALLY, BUT PHYSICALLY, I'M line:85% position:21% size:53% ONE SUBWAY STOP AWAY.
line:85% position:44% size:78% HAVING THAT KIND OF COMBINATION line:85% position:25% size:60% IS JUST A SPECIAL THING.
line:85% position:36% size:73% FOR ALL OF US WHO ARE RAISING line:85% position:33% size:70% KIDS TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THAT line:85% position:44% size:78% RIDE IN THEIR HOMETOWN BUT ALSO line:85% position:40% size:75% APPRECIATE THE EXPERIENCE THAT line:85% position:31% size:68% THEY GET OUT OF HAVING THEM line:85% position:22% size:55% BEING IN THE BIG TOWN.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND SECONDLY, YOU NEVER FORGET line:85% position:40% size:75% WHERE YOUR ROOTS ARE SO WHEN I line:85% position:25% size:60% WAS IN CENTRAL OREGON ON line:85% position:33% size:70% VACATION WITH MY WIFE WHO IS line:85% position:36% size:73% HERE TODAY, SHE AND I WERE IN line:85% position:36% size:73% CENTRAL OREGON AND CROSSING A line:85% position:33% size:70% BRIDGE INTO THE STATE OF OR.
line:85% position:44% size:78% OREGON AND THERE IN FRONT OF ME line:85% position:44% size:78% IN CENTRAL OREGON IS A CAR WITH line:85% position:27% size:63% A KENTUCKY LICENSE PLATE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% I LOOKED MORE CLOSELY AND IT HAS line:85% position:19% size:48% TWO BUMPER STICKER.
line:85% position:36% size:73% ONE THAT SAYS KEEP LOUISVILLE line:85% position:12% size:15% WEIRD.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND THE OTHER THAT SAYS WFPK.
line:85% position:40% size:75% I DRIVE UP NEXT TO THE GUY AND line:85% position:33% size:70% NOW WE'RE BLOCKING THE ROAD.
line:85% position:36% size:73% HAVE HIM ROLL DOWN HIS WINDOW line:85% position:29% size:65% AND I'M LIKE, ARE YOU FROM line:85% position:14% size:28% LOUISVILLE.

line:85% position:50% size:80% AND HAVING GROWN UP HERE, IT HAS line:85% position:27% size:63% A BIG IMPACT ON ALL OF MY line:85% position:13% size:25% REPORTING.

line:85% position:44% size:78% WE'LL PROBE IN OUR A BLOCK INTO line:85% position:44% size:78% THE INTERSECTION OF BANKING AND line:85% position:44% size:78% TECHNOLOGY, IT IS THE HOT STORY line:85% position:14% size:30% OF THE WEEK.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AMAZON HAS ANNOUNCED THAT IT IS line:85% position:25% size:60% GETTING INTO THE LENDING line:85% position:36% size:73% DIRECTLY THROUGH THEIR AMAZON line:85% position:16% size:38% PRIME, ACCOUNT.
line:85% position:33% size:70% YOU CAN LOAD UP YOUR BASKET, line:85% position:40% size:75% YOUR SHOPPING CART, SUNSCREEN.
line:85% position:44% size:78% TOILET PAPER AND $100,000 LOAN.
line:85% position:36% size:73% ONCE WE SETTLE IF THIS IS THE line:85% position:44% size:78% RIGHT APPROACH, WE DO THE HONOR line:85% position:44% size:78% AND INVITE A LOCAL AND NATIONAL line:85% position:44% size:78% LEGEND, THE ONE AND ONLY JUNIOR line:85% position:40% size:75% BRIDGEMAN TO THE STAGE TO TALK line:85% position:44% size:78% ABOUT HIS STORY FROM SMALL TOWN line:85% position:29% size:65% INDIANA BOY TO NBA STAR TO line:85% position:29% size:65% EXTRAORDINARY BUSINESSMAN.
line:85% position:50% size:80% BUT DAN, BEFORE WE GET STARTED I line:85% position:36% size:73% HAVE A QUESTION ON ETIQUETTE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AT WHAT HEIGHT DOES SOMEONE HAVE line:85% position:44% size:78% TO DISCLAIM THE NAME OF JUNIOR?
line:85% position:33% size:70% OKAY, SO BECAUSE WE'RE DOING line:85% position:24% size:58% THIS LIVE, THE AUDIENCE line:85% position:40% size:75% OBVIOUSLY CAN SEE THAT I'M THE line:85% position:29% size:65% TALLEST MEMBER OF THE ROTH line:85% position:29% size:65% FAMILY, AND AS THE TALLEST line:85% position:33% size:70% MEMBER, I WOULD SAY THAT I'M line:85% position:33% size:70% STILL A FOOT SHY OF JUNIOR'S line:85% position:11% size:13% NOSE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% SO AT WHAT POINT DOES HE START line:85% position:40% size:75% CALLING US JUNIOR, AND WE CALL line:85% position:13% size:20% HIM SIR?
line:85% position:44% size:78% >> IT IS AN EXCELLENT QUESTION.
line:85% position:50% size:80% MAYBE WE'LL GET TO THE BOTTOM OF line:85% position:15% size:33% THAT TONIGHT.
line:85% position:40% size:75% THE REAL QUESTION IS, HOW TALL line:85% position:12% size:18% WAS HE?
line:85% position:44% size:78% THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO FIND OUT.
line:85% position:22% size:55% >> HOW TALL IS SENIOR?
line:85% position:44% size:78% >> AND HERE IS WHAT ELSE I WANT line:85% position:14% size:30% TO FIND OUT.
line:85% position:12% size:18% AMAZON.
line:85% position:17% size:43% HERE IS THE DEAL: line:85% position:31% size:68% AMAZON IS BASICALLY SAID IF line:85% position:44% size:78% YOU'RE A PRIME, A STUDENT PRIME line:85% position:36% size:73% MEMBER, IF YOU'RE PAYING YOUR line:85% position:36% size:73% $79 A YEAR, YOU CAN NOW GET A line:85% position:44% size:78% BELOW MARKET RATE FOR A STUDENT line:85% position:11% size:13% LOAN.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND TO ME THIS IS THE WAY THAT line:85% position:40% size:75% AMAZON HAS BROKEN INTO SO MANY line:85% position:50% size:80% OTHER MARKETS AND GOT INTO T.V., line:85% position:44% size:78% AND MY KIDS SIT THERE AND WATCH line:85% position:15% size:33% AMAZON VIDEO.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND THEY DID IT WITH CERTAIN line:85% position:44% size:78% SHOWS AT THE BEGINNING AND THEN line:85% position:44% size:78% THEY KIND OF BROKE IT WIDE OPEN line:85% position:36% size:73% AND NOW THEY TAKE ON NETFLIX.
line:85% position:31% size:68% I THINK THIS IS THE OPENING line:85% position:36% size:73% SALVO IN AN AMAZON ATTEMPT TO line:85% position:15% size:35% TAKE ON BANKS.
line:85% position:36% size:73% >> I THINK THAT YOU'RE RIGHT.
line:85% position:17% size:43% IT IS NOT SUBTLE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% NOW IT IS DONE IN A WAY WHICH IS line:85% position:24% size:58% A LOT OF WAYS THAT TECH line:85% position:50% size:80% COMPANIES KIND OF ENTER INTO THE line:85% position:36% size:73% PHASE WHICH IS THEY PARTNERED line:85% position:40% size:75% WITH WELLS FARGO TO BE ABLE TO line:85% position:18% size:45% OFFER THESE LOANS.
line:85% position:40% size:75% WHAT I THINK IS, IT IS A SMART line:85% position:11% size:13% MOVE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AMAZON WILL LEARN ON WELLS FARGO line:85% position:50% size:80% ABOUT HOW TO ACTUALLY MAKE THESE line:85% position:33% size:70% LOANS EFFECTIVELY AND I THIS line:85% position:29% size:65% THAT I WELLS FARGO WILL BE line:85% position:50% size:80% JETSONED AS SOON AS AMAZON FEELS line:85% position:25% size:60% THEY HAVE THE EXPERTISE.
line:85% position:21% size:53% BUT IT GOES TO A MORE line:85% position:44% size:78% FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM THAT I HAVE line:85% position:40% size:75% WITH TECH COMPANIES OVERREACH.
line:85% position:50% size:80% TECH COMPANIES SHOULD NOT-SHOULD line:85% position:21% size:53% NOT BE ISSUING LOANS.
line:85% position:50% size:80% IT IS QUESTIONABLE WHETHER BANKS line:85% position:31% size:68% SHOULD BE ISSUING LOANS BUT line:85% position:44% size:78% CERTAINLY TECH COMPANIES SHOULD line:85% position:21% size:53% NOT BE ISSUING LOANS.
line:85% position:33% size:70% TECH COMPANIES WHETHER IT BE line:85% position:33% size:70% AMAZON OR WHAT IS ALREADY AN line:85% position:33% size:70% ENTIRE SPACE, WHAT IS CALLED line:85% position:21% size:53% PEER TO PEER LENDING.
line:85% position:44% size:78% COMPANIES THAT HAVE COME OUT OF line:85% position:36% size:73% THE WOODWORK, SOCIAL FINANCE, line:85% position:44% size:78% PROBABLY THE MOST FAMOUS ONE IS line:85% position:31% size:68% LENDING CLUB WHICH IS NOW A line:85% position:16% size:38% PUBLIC COMPANY.
line:85% position:27% size:63% AND THESE COMPANIES OFFER line:85% position:44% size:78% OUTSIDE OF THE REGULAR STANDARD line:85% position:50% size:80% REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT THE BANKS line:85% position:44% size:78% HAVE TO FOLLOW IS THAT THEY ARE line:85% position:44% size:78% ABLE TO OFFER LOANS AND IN SOME line:85% position:40% size:75% CASES, TO FUNDAMENTALLY WHAT A line:85% position:40% size:75% BANK DOES IS TAKE DEPOSITS AND line:85% position:40% size:75% BY THE WAY, THEY TAKE DEPOSITS line:85% position:50% size:80% WITHOUT ANY FDIC INSURANCE WHICH line:85% position:31% size:68% SHOULD SCARE ANYONE WHO HAS line:85% position:36% size:73% MONEY IN ANY OF THESE PLACES.
line:85% position:36% size:73% BUT WHAT I THINK IS A CLASSIC line:85% position:50% size:80% OVERREACH OVERREACH BY AMAZON IS line:85% position:36% size:73% THIS ARROGANCE, WE CAN FIGURE line:85% position:44% size:78% OUT RETAIL, WHY CAN'T WE FIGURE line:85% position:14% size:30% OUT BANKING.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND THAT'S GOING TO MAKE THEM line:85% position:20% size:50% BAD AS UNDERWRITERS.
line:85% position:31% size:68% UNDERWRITING THE ABILITY TO line:85% position:36% size:73% OFFER GOOD LOANS WHICH IS BAD line:85% position:44% size:78% YOU'RE AN MASON SHAREHOLDER BUT line:85% position:27% size:63% MY BIGGER CONCERN IS THIS line:85% position:44% size:78% SOCIETAL ONE WHICH IS WHY DO WE line:85% position:44% size:78% THINK THAT WE'RE -- I FEEL LIKE line:85% position:36% size:73% WE'RE HEADING RIGHT BACK INTO line:85% position:44% size:78% ANOTHER 2008, ANOTHER FINANCIAL line:85% position:50% size:80% CRISIS, BUT THAT WILL BE STARTED line:85% position:29% size:65% BY THESE NON-BANKS WHO ARE line:85% position:31% size:68% MAKING LOANS TO PEOPLE THAT line:85% position:40% size:75% CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THEM BACK line:85% position:40% size:75% AT ADVANTAGEOUS RATES FOR NOW.
line:85% position:33% size:70% >> BUT COULD IT BE ANY WORSE line:85% position:50% size:80% THAN WHAT THE BANKS DID IN 2008?
line:85% position:36% size:73% I THINK THIS IS A-TOE SAY THE line:85% position:44% size:78% TECH COMPANIES ARE NOT GOING TO line:85% position:44% size:78% BE ABLE TO DO THIS BECAUSE THEY line:85% position:36% size:73% DON'T HAVE THE HISTORY OR THE line:85% position:31% size:68% FDIC INSURANCE THEY CAN GET line:85% position:11% size:13% THAT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THERE ARE REGULATORY MEANS TO GO line:85% position:40% size:75% AND GET THAT BUT WHAT YOU HAVE line:85% position:44% size:78% ARE PEOPLE WILLING TO PRESS THE line:85% position:44% size:78% LIMIT TO FIND NEW ALGORITHMS TO line:85% position:40% size:75% FIGURE OUT RISK WHO ARE -- WHO line:85% position:44% size:78% DON'T HAVE THE SAME RISK MODELS line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT WALL STREET HAS THAT TOOK line:85% position:18% size:45% US OVER THE CLIFF.
line:85% position:36% size:73% I DON'T THINK THAT WOULD HAVE line:85% position:13% size:23% HAPPENED.
line:85% position:40% size:75% WHEN I THINK ABOUT WALL STREET line:85% position:40% size:75% AND INNOVATION, I WANT TO HIDE line:85% position:18% size:45% UNDERNEATH MY BED.
line:85% position:40% size:75% >> I HEAR YOU AND I THINK THAT line:85% position:40% size:75% THERE IS LIMITS TO INNOVATION.
line:85% position:44% size:78% BUT, I THINK THAT THERE IS ALSO line:85% position:40% size:75% A FOCUS ON TECH COMPANIES THAT line:85% position:36% size:73% ALGORITHMS SOLVE ALL PROBLEMS line:85% position:44% size:78% AND I THINK THAT WHAT YOU DO IS line:85% position:36% size:73% TRY TO UNDERMINE THAT, NOT TO line:85% position:24% size:58% SAY THAT EVERYBODY WILL line:85% position:44% size:78% DETERMINE WHAT NEWS THEY HAPPEN line:85% position:44% size:78% TO CONSUME ON LINKED IN, PURELY line:85% position:16% size:38% FROM A FORMULA.
line:85% position:11% size:13% SO -- line:85% position:50% size:80% >> I WOULD SAY THAT UNDERMINE IS line:85% position:16% size:38% THE WRONG WORD.
line:85% position:44% size:78% WE BUILD OFF OF THAT WE HELP TO line:85% position:21% size:53% POP THE FILTER LEVEL.
line:85% position:33% size:70% BUT I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE line:85% position:12% size:18% SAYING.
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> OKAY, SO LET'S SAY THAT'S THE line:85% position:19% size:48% APPROACH THEY TAKE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% WHAT ALGORITHM DOES AMAZON HAVE line:85% position:50% size:80% FOR DETERMINING WHETHER SOMEBODY line:85% position:44% size:78% IS CREDIT WORTHY TO GET A HOPE?
line:85% position:50% size:80% THEY HAVE THEIR SPENDING, RIGHT.
line:85% position:15% size:35% >> ABSOLUTELY.
line:85% position:36% size:73% >> OKAY SO WHERE DO YOU STOP?
line:85% position:50% size:80% BUT NOW LET'S SAY I'M ON AMAZON, line:85% position:33% size:70% AND I BUY A BOOK ON TREATING line:85% position:16% size:38% DRUG ADDICTION.
line:85% position:50% size:80% WELL, NOW THAT INFORMATION IS IN line:85% position:33% size:70% AMAZON'S HANDS AND THEY KNOW line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT I HAVE GOT AN INTERESTING line:85% position:40% size:75% DRUG ADDICTION AND I'M NOW NOT line:85% position:15% size:35% CREDIT WORTHY.
line:85% position:24% size:58% THEY HAVE A LOT MORE OF line:85% position:40% size:75% NON-STANDARD WAY OF BEING ABLE line:85% position:40% size:75% TO EVALUATE IN VIOLATION OF MY line:85% position:31% size:68% PRIVACY TO KNOW WHAT I WILL line:85% position:44% size:78% WON'T BE ABLE TO DO IN TERMS OF line:85% position:18% size:45% REPAYING THE LOAN.
line:85% position:40% size:75% >> ON THE OTHER HAND, YOU HAVE line:85% position:44% size:78% DEBTING A LOAN IS DIFFERENT AND line:85% position:40% size:75% EXPENSIVE AND REQUIRES WORKING line:85% position:29% size:65% IN MAINSTREAM WAYS, AND IT line:85% position:36% size:73% REQUIRES GIVING OVER A LOT OF line:85% position:40% size:75% FINANCIAL INFORMATION THAT YOU line:85% position:36% size:73% MAY NOT HAVE AND YOU MIGHT BE line:85% position:22% size:55% OKAY GETTING THE LOAN.
line:85% position:44% size:78% I THINK THAT HAVING THE -- THAT line:85% position:40% size:75% THESE AVENUE, THE TECH COMPANY line:85% position:36% size:73% IS PUSHING INTO THIS, OPEN UP line:85% position:36% size:73% AVENUES TO GIVE PEOPLE TO GET line:85% position:50% size:80% PEOPLE ACCESS TO MONEY THAT THEY line:85% position:44% size:78% WOULDN'T HAVE GOTTEN OTHERWISE.
line:85% position:25% size:60% IT MEANS THAT YOU CAN BE line:85% position:50% size:80% UNDERBANKED AND STILL GET LOANS.
line:85% position:50% size:80% IT MEAN US THAT CAN FIND -- THEY line:85% position:24% size:58% MAY NOT BE ADDITIONALLY line:85% position:29% size:65% ATTRACTIVE FOR A LOAN BLUE line:85% position:29% size:65% ALGORITHM SAID THIS PERSON line:85% position:44% size:78% WORKED THIS JOB FOR A NUMBER OF line:85% position:36% size:73% YEARS AND THIS LOOKS GOOD AND line:85% position:36% size:73% HIGH WHILE A WALL STREET BANK line:85% position:31% size:68% MAY SAY FORGET IT, THIS GUY line:85% position:44% size:78% DOESN'T HAVE ENOUGH ASSETS, THE line:85% position:33% size:70% ALALGORITHM WILL SAY THIS IS line:85% position:11% size:13% GOOD.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THEY TRY TO DETERMINE HOW LIKELY line:85% position:24% size:58% THAT YOU WERE TO DO IT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> PROBABLY NOT THE WAY THAT YOU line:85% position:31% size:68% WANT TO GO, LENDING CLUB IS line:85% position:36% size:73% PROBABLY NOT THE WAY THAT YOU line:85% position:14% size:28% WANT TO GO.
line:85% position:44% size:78% >> LENDING CLUB IS NOT IN GREAT line:85% position:12% size:15% SHAPE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% >> LENDING CLUB FOR ALL OF OUR line:85% position:44% size:78% SAVVY LISTENERS, ESPECIALLY OUR line:85% position:44% size:78% UROLOGIST LISTENERS WHO TEND TO line:85% position:40% size:75% E-MAIL US THE MOST IN TERMS OF line:85% position:36% size:73% FEEDBACK ON THIS SHOW IS THEY line:85% position:40% size:75% WOULD ASK IS, SO WHAT HAPPENED line:85% position:17% size:40% TO LENDING CLUB?

line:85% position:25% size:60% WHAT'S GOING ON WITH THE line:85% position:33% size:70% BUSINESS IS TOTALLY SEPARATE line:85% position:36% size:73% FROM THEM DESTROYING PEOPLE'S line:85% position:12% size:15% LIVES.
line:85% position:44% size:78% THEY WERE NOT TAKING HOMES AWAY line:85% position:14% size:30% FROM PEOPLE.
line:85% position:22% size:55% THAT WAS NOT DOING ON.
line:85% position:13% size:23% >> WATCH: line:85% position:40% size:75% MY BELIEF THESE TECH COMPANIES line:85% position:50% size:80% ARE GOING TO BE A PROBLEM BEFORE line:85% position:29% size:65% WE REALIZE THAT THEY ARE A line:85% position:13% size:20% PROBLEM.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THEY ARE GOING BE THE TOO BIG TO line:85% position:11% size:13% FAIL.
line:85% position:12% size:15% WATCH.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AMAZON, PAYPAL, YOU'RE GOING TO line:85% position:40% size:75% SEE THESE COMPANIES THAT DON'T line:85% position:33% size:70% HAVE ANY LIMITS RIGHT NOW TO line:85% position:33% size:70% WHAT THEY CAN DO IN BANKING, line:85% position:40% size:75% APPLE, WHATEVER THEY CAN DO IN line:85% position:50% size:80% BANKING LIKE TALKED ABOUT IN OUR line:85% position:15% size:33% LAST PODCAST.

line:85% position:44% size:78% >> I WOULD STRETCH IT VERY FAR, line:85% position:40% size:75% I WOULD RATHER HAVE THE JEANIE line:85% position:36% size:73% BE LIVING WITH THESE GUYS AND line:85% position:44% size:78% WATCHING THEM COMPETE WITH EACH line:85% position:33% size:70% OTHER THAN HAVING A FEW WALL line:85% position:44% size:78% STREET BANKS CONTROLINGWHO GETS line:85% position:50% size:80% THE MONEY AND HOW THEY ARE DOING line:85% position:50% size:80% IT AND EXTENDING RISK WAY BEYOND line:85% position:40% size:75% WHAT THEY ARE SHOULD BE DOING.
line:85% position:21% size:53% >> FOR A PERSPECTIVE.
line:85% position:36% size:73% THE CONSUMER LOAN BUSINESS IS line:85% position:21% size:53% 3.3 TRILLION DOLLARS.
line:85% position:18% size:45% THAT'S HOW MUCH -- line:85% position:24% size:58% >> THAT'S YOUR OPINION.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:50% size:80% >> THE CONSUMER, THE ENTIRE PEER line:85% position:31% size:68% TO PEER LENDING ONLY DID 18 line:85% position:13% size:20% BILLION.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT'S A SMALLER NUMBER THAN 3.3 line:85% position:13% size:23% TRILLION.
line:85% position:40% size:75% IF NUMBER GROWS, I THINK IT IS line:85% position:22% size:55% GOING TO BE A PROBLEM.
line:85% position:29% size:65% I THINK IT WILL BE A MAJOR line:85% position:13% size:20% PROBLEM.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND I THINK THAT THERE HASN'T line:85% position:40% size:75% BEEN A WAY TO -- YOU HAVE ONLY line:85% position:40% size:75% HAD INTEREST RATES ESSENTIALLY line:85% position:36% size:73% AT ZERO SINCE THESE COMPANIES line:85% position:17% size:40% STARTED FORMING.
line:85% position:44% size:78% THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN TESTED AND line:85% position:29% size:65% I THINK IT IS GOING TO END line:85% position:12% size:15% BADLY.
line:85% position:27% size:63% >> THE WAY I SEE IT, LOVE line:85% position:24% size:58% GETTING AMAZON PACKAGES line:85% position:50% size:80% DELIVERED EVERY DAY AND WATCHING line:85% position:50% size:80% GO DIEGO ON AMAZON AND I'M READY line:85% position:24% size:58% TO GET LOANS FROM THEM.

line:85% position:40% size:75% WHEN YOU GOT STARTED, WHEN YOU line:85% position:36% size:73% WERE A KID, WERE NOT THINKING line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT YOU WOULD BE A PROFESSIONAL line:85% position:18% size:45% BASKETBALL PLAYER.

line:85% position:44% size:78% AND GROWING UP IN EAST CHICAGO, line:85% position:40% size:75% INDIANA, THAT'S WHAT EVERYBODY line:85% position:50% size:80% WANTED TO DO EVERYBODY WANTED TO line:85% position:27% size:63% PLAY BASKETBALL AND I WAS line:85% position:29% size:65% FORTUNATE THAT WHEN I CAME line:85% position:40% size:75% ALONG, WE HAD A VERY GOOD HIGH line:85% position:14% size:30% SCHOOL TEAM.
line:85% position:33% size:70% WE WENT UNDEFEATED MY SENIOR line:85% position:11% size:13% YEAR.
line:85% position:40% size:75% WE AVERAGED 96 POINTS AND HELD line:85% position:27% size:63% OUR POSITION TO 60, IT IS line:85% position:33% size:70% AMAZING HOW I REMEMBER THOSE line:85% position:14% size:28% STATISTICS.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:44% size:78% >> BUT I BET YOU CAN'T REMEMBER line:85% position:31% size:68% YOUR GRANDCHILD'S BIRTHDAY.
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> PUT ME ON THE SPOT, YOU WOULD line:85% position:15% size:33% WIN THAT TOO.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:31% size:68% BUT JUST FORTUNATE AND THEN line:85% position:44% size:78% DENNY CRUM GOT THE JOB HERE AND line:85% position:50% size:80% HE RECRUITED ANOTHER PLAYER FROM line:85% position:16% size:38% MY HIGH SCHOOL.
line:85% position:36% size:73% THE FRESHMAN COACH AT MY HIGH line:85% position:44% size:78% SCHOOL INFLUENCE MED TO COME TO line:85% position:50% size:80% LOUISVILLE, AND I HAD GREAT FOUR line:85% position:44% size:78% YEARS IN COLLEGE, SOMETHING YOU line:85% position:21% size:53% DON'T SEE VERY OFTEN.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND I WAS VERY FORTUNATE TO PLAY line:85% position:14% size:28% IN THE NBA.
line:85% position:36% size:73% BUT, WITH THAT, YOU KNEW THAT line:85% position:33% size:70% YOU WERE GOING TO HAVE TO DO line:85% position:16% size:38% SOMETHING ELSE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% WE WERE TALKING EARLIER, WHEN I line:85% position:33% size:70% CAME INTO THE NBA, THE TOTAL line:85% position:40% size:75% SALARY FOR THE MILWAUKEE BUCKS line:85% position:31% size:68% THAT YEAR WAS $1.8 MILLION.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND THAT WAS FOR ALL 12 PLAYERS line:85% position:17% size:40% AND THE COACHES.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND SO YOU CAME INTO THE LEAGUE line:85% position:33% size:70% WITH THE MINDSET THAT YOU'LL line:85% position:36% size:73% HAVE TO DO SOMETHING WHEN YOU line:85% position:44% size:78% STOP PLAYING BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT line:85% position:44% size:78% GOING TO BE ABLE TO LIVE OFF OF line:85% position:22% size:55% WHATEVER YOU CAN SAVE.
line:85% position:31% size:68% SO I ALWAYS KNEW THAT I WAS line:85% position:31% size:68% GOING HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.
line:85% position:20% size:50% >> BUT THAT IS TRUE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% BUT, THE OTHER PLAYERS WEREN'T line:85% position:21% size:53% DOING THE SAME THING.
line:85% position:44% size:78% YOU DON'T SEE EVERYONE WHO IS A line:85% position:33% size:70% BUCK GOING ON AND HAVING THE line:85% position:36% size:73% SAME SUCCESS THAT YOU'VE HAD.
line:85% position:36% size:73% WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS ABOUT line:85% position:50% size:80% THE WAY THAT YOU WERE RAISED AND line:85% position:40% size:75% THE WAY THAT YOU WERE THINKING line:85% position:36% size:73% THAT ENABLED YOU TO MAKE THAT line:85% position:17% size:43% TRAN IN ADDITION.
line:85% position:22% size:55% >> -- THAT TRANSITION.
line:85% position:31% size:68% >> I TRYING, JUST TRYING TO line:85% position:44% size:78% LEARN FROM PEOPLE AND I HAD THE line:85% position:29% size:65% ADVANTAGE OF GOING ARM AND line:85% position:25% size:60% MEETING PEOPLE AND BEING line:85% position:36% size:73% INVOLVED WITH A LOT OF PEOPLE line:85% position:33% size:70% AND ONE OF THE GREAT STORIES line:85% position:33% size:70% THAT I TELL, A TRUE STORY IS line:85% position:19% size:48% MEETING SAM WALTON.
line:85% position:36% size:73% I WAS THERE WITH A PLAY OTHER line:85% position:44% size:78% THAN THE TEAM AND WE WERE THERE line:85% position:29% size:65% FOR A CHARITY EVENT AND HE line:85% position:36% size:73% INVITE US TO COME TO WAL-MART line:85% position:15% size:33% THE NEXT DAY.
line:85% position:40% size:75% I SAID HOW NEAT IS THAT, I GET line:85% position:40% size:75% TO GO TO WAL-MART AND HANG OUT line:85% position:17% size:40% WITH SAM WALTON.
line:85% position:40% size:75% I THOUGHT HIS OFFICE BE AS BIG line:85% position:31% size:68% AS THIS ROOM AND PEOPLE ARE line:85% position:50% size:80% GOING TO BE THROWING ROSE PETALS line:85% position:40% size:75% ON THE FLOOR WHEN HE WALKS AND line:85% position:40% size:75% WE GET THERE AND HIS OFFICE IS line:85% position:20% size:50% NOT VERY BIG AT ALL.
line:85% position:29% size:65% AND HIS OFFICE IS ACTUALLY line:85% position:15% size:33% PRETTY JUNKY.
line:85% position:13% size:23% YOU KNOW.
line:85% position:22% size:55% TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND I'M LIKE, THIS DOESN'T MAKE line:85% position:33% size:70% A LOT OF SENSE TO ME, HE'S A line:85% position:33% size:70% SECOND WEALTHIEST MAP IN THE line:85% position:14% size:30% WHOLE WORLD.
line:85% position:29% size:65% LETHAT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT.
line:85% position:44% size:78% HE SAID COME ON AND TAKE A WALK line:85% position:13% size:20% WITH ME.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND WE GO WALKING, THROUGH THE line:85% position:44% size:78% HALLS OF WAL-MART, AND HE KNOWS line:85% position:44% size:78% EVERYBODY THAT WE ENCOUNTER AND line:85% position:36% size:73% NOT JUST THEIR NAME, HE KNOWS line:85% position:21% size:53% SOMETHING ABOUT THEM.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND I WON'T TELL YOU THE STORIES line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT HE TOLD, BUT I SAIDFY GET line:85% position:44% size:78% INVOLVED IN BUSINESS, I'M GOING line:85% position:24% size:58% TO KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT line:85% position:33% size:70% EVERYBODY THAT WORKS FOR ME.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND IT STOPPED WHEN I GOT TO line:85% position:19% size:48% ABOUT 3,000 PEOPLE.
line:85% position:25% size:60% I CAN'T DO THAT ANYMORE.
line:85% position:36% size:73% BUT, THAT WAS MY GOAL TO HAVE line:85% position:31% size:68% THAT CONTACT WITH PEOPLE AT line:85% position:11% size:13% WORK.
line:85% position:40% size:75% >> YOU SEEMED, UNDERSTANDABLY, line:85% position:20% size:50% VERY IMPRESSIONABLE.
line:85% position:12% size:15% RIGHT?
line:85% position:33% size:70% THAT YOU EAVESDROPPED ON THE line:85% position:44% size:78% OWNERS AND WHAT THEY WERE DOING line:85% position:33% size:70% AND THINGS THAT YOU FELT YOU line:85% position:17% size:40% SHOULD BE DOING.
line:85% position:44% size:78% YOU'RE WATCHING SAM AND THE WAY line:85% position:21% size:53% HE CONDUCTS BUSINESS.
line:85% position:36% size:73% HOW MUCH OF WHAT HAS MADE YOU line:85% position:50% size:80% SUCCESSFUL IS TAKE WHAT YOU HAVE line:85% position:33% size:70% LEARNED FROM OTHERS, AND HOW line:85% position:44% size:78% MUCH OF IT IS JUST WHO YOU ARE?
line:85% position:44% size:78% >> WELL, I THINK THAT IF YOU'RE line:85% position:24% size:58% GOING TO BE INVOLVED IN line:85% position:50% size:80% BUSINESS, A SUCCESS IN ANYTHING, line:85% position:40% size:75% YOU HAVE TO BE TRUE TO WHO YOU line:85% position:11% size:10% ARE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND I WAS FORTUNATE THAT I GREW line:85% position:50% size:80% UP IN EAST CHICAGO, INDIANA, AND line:85% position:50% size:80% I HAD TWO PARENTS, AND THEY WERE line:85% position:16% size:38% MORE CONCERNED.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THEY ONLY HAD THREE RULESSEN ONE line:85% position:31% size:68% YOU HAD TO GO TO SCHOOL AND line:85% position:36% size:73% COULDN'T BRING ANY BAD GRADES line:85% position:11% size:13% HOME.
line:85% position:25% size:60% YOU HAD TO GO TO CHURCH.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND WE WERE IN CHURCH MORE THAN line:85% position:31% size:68% I WAS IN SCHOOL MOST OF THE line:85% position:11% size:13% TIME.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND IF YOU WENT OUT FOR A SPORTS line:85% position:25% size:60% TEAM, YOU COULDN'T QUIT.
line:85% position:31% size:68% AND THEY DIDN'T CARE IF YOU line:85% position:31% size:68% PLAYED OR NOT BUT CUE QUIT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT WAS THE FOUNDATION OF WHO I line:85% position:12% size:18% BECAME.
line:85% position:40% size:75% SO FROM THAT, YOU STOLE THINGS line:85% position:44% size:78% FROM DIFFERENT PEOPLE ALONG THE line:85% position:11% size:10% WAY.
line:85% position:33% size:70% I WILL TELL YOU THAT I STOLE line:85% position:40% size:75% THINGS FROM A LOT OF PEOPLE, A line:85% position:44% size:78% LOT OF GREAT IDEAS, BUT, IT ALL line:85% position:36% size:73% HAD TO FIT WITH WHO THEY MADE line:85% position:11% size:10% YOU.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND THE PERSON THAT YOU ARE.
line:85% position:27% size:63% AND WHEN YOU DID THAT AND line:85% position:44% size:78% WORKING TOGETHER, IT IS AMAZING line:85% position:29% size:65% HOW SUCCESSFUL YOU CAN BE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> AND HOW DID YOU -- TALK ABOUT line:85% position:33% size:70% THE TRANSITION FROM WHEN YOU line:85% position:33% size:70% RETIRED AND HOW YOU MADE THE line:85% position:29% size:65% TRANSITION INTO FAST FOOD.
line:85% position:44% size:78% >> I WAS SITTING AROUND AND HAD line:85% position:24% size:58% A FRIEND IN THE BANKING line:85% position:13% size:23% BUSINESS.
line:85% position:25% size:60% IT WASN'T GOLDMAN SACHS.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND HE SAID WHAT ARE YOU GOING line:85% position:33% size:70% TO DO WHEN YOU STOP PLAYING.
line:85% position:44% size:78% I SAID, WELL, YOU KNOW, I'M NOT line:85% position:11% size:13% SURE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND HE SAID I HAVE A COUPLE OF line:85% position:44% size:78% FRIENDS THAT ARE POPEYE CHICKEN line:85% position:31% size:68% FRAN CHEESEEES AND THEY ARE line:85% position:36% size:73% GETTING INVOLVED WITH WENDY'S line:85% position:50% size:80% AND MAYBE GET INVOLVED WITH THEM line:85% position:50% size:80% AND THEY CAN MAKE SOME MONEY FOR line:85% position:11% size:10% YOU.
line:85% position:50% size:80% SO WHEN YOU STOP PLAY, YOU WON'T line:85% position:33% size:70% HAVE TO TAKE YOUR FIRST JOB.
line:85% position:33% size:70% I MET THEM AND INVESTED WITH line:85% position:44% size:78% THEM IN A WENDY'S RESTAURANT IN line:85% position:13% size:20% CHICAGO.
line:85% position:40% size:75% WHEN I STOPPED PLAYING, ALL OF line:85% position:36% size:73% THE MONEY THAT I HAD SAVED, I line:85% position:19% size:48% HAD SAVED $750,000.
line:85% position:29% size:65% AND WHEN I BOUGHT THE FIVE line:85% position:40% size:75% RESTAURANT, IT COSTS $750,000.
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> SO YOUR NET WORTH THE SAME AS line:85% position:12% size:18% DANY'S.
line:85% position:33% size:70% >> YES, I CAN RELATE TO YOU.
line:85% position:12% size:15% YEAH,.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:11% size:10% BUT.
line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT FIRST YEAR WHEN WE FORGOT line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT IT SNOWED IN MILWAUKEE AS line:85% position:50% size:80% MUCH AS IT DOES, AND WHEN THE IT line:85% position:44% size:78% SNOW, PEOPLE DON'T COME TO EAT, line:85% position:36% size:73% AND SO WE BARELY MADE PAYROLL line:85% position:50% size:80% AND THERE WAS A LOT OF TIME THAT line:85% position:40% size:75% FIRST YEAR WHEN I DIDN'T THINK line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT WE WERE GOING TO MAKE AND line:85% position:50% size:80% IT I WAS THINKING THAT, 12 YEARS line:85% position:27% size:63% AND NOW YOU'LL BE ANOTHER line:85% position:25% size:60% STATISTIC IN THE LEAGUE.
line:85% position:22% size:55% >> WHAT WAS THAT LIKE?
line:85% position:17% size:40% YOU WERE A STAR.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND NOW YOU'RE SUDDENLY WORRYING line:85% position:44% size:78% ABOUT MAKING PAYROLL AND YOU'RE line:85% position:44% size:78% GETTING THE SNOW OUT OF THE WAY line:85% position:50% size:80% TO GO INTO YOUR RESTAURANT EVERY line:85% position:11% size:10% DAY.
line:85% position:33% size:70% PSYCHOLOGICALLY, HOW DID YOU line:85% position:16% size:38% DEAL WITH THAT?
line:85% position:40% size:75% >> TO BECOME A PLAYER, IN YOUR line:85% position:33% size:70% MIND, YOU SOMEHOW FIGURE OUT line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT TO GET TO THIS POINT, I'M line:85% position:36% size:73% GOING TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES line:85% position:40% size:75% PHYSICALLY TO GET THERE YOU GO line:85% position:21% size:53% OUT AND YOU PRACTICE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND TO GET TO THE POINT WHERE WE line:85% position:50% size:80% COULD BE SUCCESSFUL, I SAID WHAT line:85% position:16% size:38% AM I NOT DOING?
line:85% position:22% size:55% I TALKED TO SOME OTHER line:85% position:36% size:73% FRANCHISEEES, AND I WORKED 18 line:85% position:31% size:68% HOURS IN THOSE RESTAURANTS.
line:85% position:50% size:80% WE FIRED ONE CREW THREE TIMES IN line:85% position:40% size:75% THE RESTAURANT UNTIL WE GOT IT line:85% position:12% size:15% RIGHT.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND THE THING THAT I LEARNED line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT'S BEEN KIND OF THE SECRET line:85% position:40% size:75% THROUGH ALL OF THESE YEARS IS, line:85% position:40% size:75% IN MILWAUKEE AT THAT TIME, THE line:85% position:36% size:73% THING I LEARNED, IT IS ALWAYS line:85% position:15% size:33% ABOUT PEOPLE.
line:85% position:29% size:65% AND IT IS NEVER ABOUT YOU.
line:85% position:50% size:80% IT IS NEVER ABOUT WHAT YOU WANT.
line:85% position:44% size:78% BUT YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND LAMA line:85% position:50% size:80% PERSON WANT, HOW DO YOU MOTIVATE line:85% position:36% size:73% THEM AND GET THEM TO SEE YOUR line:85% position:12% size:18% VISION.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND IN MILWAUKEE AT THAT TIME, line:85% position:50% size:80% IF YOU GOT STOPPED FOR A TRAFFIC line:85% position:31% size:68% VIOLATION, THEY TOOK YOU TO line:85% position:11% size:13% JAIL.
line:85% position:11% size:13% BOOM.
line:85% position:50% size:80% SO MOST OF OUR EMPLOYEES WERE IN line:85% position:11% size:13% JAIL.
line:85% position:11% size:13% SO -- line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:33% size:70% SO WE WERE BAILING THEM OUT.
line:85% position:14% size:28% TRUE STORY.
line:85% position:44% size:78% SO MUCH SO THAT WE'D GO DOWN TO line:85% position:40% size:75% MILWAUKEE COUNTY JAIL AND THEY line:85% position:50% size:80% WOULD SAY WEAPON I DID'S IS HERE line:85% position:20% size:50% TO GET THEIR PEOPLE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% WENDY'S PEOPLE ARE HERE TO GET line:85% position:15% size:33% THEIR PEOPLE.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:44% size:78% BUT, WHAT IT DID, IS IT ALLOWED line:85% position:44% size:78% THE PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND THE IN line:85% position:50% size:80% THE REAL LIFE THAT WE CARED MORE line:85% position:36% size:73% ABOUT THEM THAN JUST SOMEBODY line:85% position:27% size:63% COMING TO WORK EVERY DAY.
line:85% position:31% size:68% AND SO ONCE THEY UNDERSTOOD line:85% position:44% size:78% THAT, THEN THEY STARTED TO SAY, line:85% position:50% size:80% STARTED TO BELIEVE THAT SOMEBODY line:85% position:40% size:75% CARES ABOUT ME, MAYBE I CAN DO line:85% position:11% size:13% THIS.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND, EVEN WENT TO WHERE I WENT line:85% position:24% size:58% TO COURT FOR ONE OF OUR line:85% position:40% size:75% ASSISTANT MANAGER, A GENTLEMAN line:85% position:22% size:55% BY THE NAME OF HAROLD.
line:85% position:36% size:73% HAROLD WORKED FOR US FOR FOUR line:85% position:50% size:80% YEARS, DID A GREAT JOB AND I GET line:85% position:44% size:78% A CALL ONE DAY FROM AN ATTORNEY line:85% position:50% size:80% WHO SAID WHAT ARE YOU DOING NEXT line:85% position:50% size:80% WEEK, CAN YOU COME DOWN AND BE A line:85% position:36% size:73% CHARACTER WITNESS FOR HAROLD.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND I'M THINKING, ALL RIGHT, line:85% position:40% size:75% TRAFFIC VIOLATION, WHATEVER IT line:85% position:17% size:40% IS, NO BIG DEAL.
line:85% position:15% size:35% I CAN DO THAT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% SO I GO DOWN TO MILWAUKEE COUNTY line:85% position:40% size:75% COURTHOUSE, AND I WALK IN, AND line:85% position:44% size:78% THEY SAY, WELL, OKAY, JUST HAVE line:85% position:14% size:30% A SEAT HERE.
line:85% position:17% size:43% CASE IS GOING ON.
line:85% position:40% size:75% OR HE'S IN THERE, I'M THINKING line:85% position:44% size:78% HE'S INSIDE AND THEY ARE FINING line:85% position:11% size:10% HIM.
line:85% position:33% size:70% SO THEY SAID, OPEN THE DOOR, line:85% position:44% size:78% WALK IN, SO I WALKED IN, AND IT line:85% position:40% size:75% IS RIGHT OUT OF LAW AND ORDER.
line:85% position:40% size:75% I SIT DOWN AND THEY EVENTUALLY line:85% position:50% size:80% CALLED ME UP TO THE STAND AND AT line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT TIME, YOU HAD TO RAISE YOUR line:85% position:50% size:80% RIGHT HAND AND SOLEMNLY SWEAR TO line:85% position:44% size:78% TELL THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH line:85% position:44% size:78% AND NOTHING BUT THE TRUTH I DO.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND THERE IS THE JURY SITTING line:85% position:36% size:73% THERE LOOKING RIGHT AT ME AND line:85% position:29% size:65% THE JUDGE IS THERE AND I'M line:85% position:36% size:73% FIGURING OUT WHAT AIM -- AM I line:85% position:14% size:28% DOING HERE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% THE PROSECUTOR AND THE DEFENSE line:85% position:29% size:65% AND ALL OF THAT AND HAROLD line:85% position:40% size:75% BEFORE HE CAME TO WORK WITH US line:85% position:33% size:70% HAD DONE SOME THINGS THAT HE line:85% position:27% size:63% SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN DOING line:85% position:21% size:53% INVOLVED WITH ILLEGAL line:85% position:17% size:40% PHARMACEUTICALS.
line:85% position:40% size:75% BUT I CAN TRUTHFULLY TELL THEM line:85% position:36% size:73% THAT IN THE FOUR YEARS THAT I line:85% position:33% size:70% HAVE KNOWN HIM, WHAT TYPE OF line:85% position:15% size:35% PERSON HE WAS.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND HOW HE HAS WORKED FROM A line:85% position:31% size:68% CREW PERSON UP TO ASSISTANT line:85% position:13% size:20% MANAGER.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND HE HAS TAKEN CARE OF HIS line:85% position:24% size:58% FAMILY AND ALL OF THAT.
line:85% position:20% size:50% AND DOES HE GET OFF?
line:85% position:11% size:8% NO.
line:85% position:18% size:45% HE GETS PROBATION.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND HE HAS TO DO SOME THINGS FOR line:85% position:40% size:75% A WHILE BUT HE'S NOW A CHEF IN line:85% position:13% size:20% ALABAMA.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND SO ONCE THE PEOPLE REALIZED line:85% position:50% size:80% WHAT YOU WOULD DO FOR THEM, THEN line:85% position:44% size:78% THEY STARTED TO UNDERSTAND WHAT line:85% position:22% size:55% THEY WOULD DO FOR YOU.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND WHAT WE COULD DO TOGETHER line:85% position:17% size:43% MORE IMPORTANTLY.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND SO THAT IS HOW WE GO FROM line:85% position:44% size:78% FIVE STORES, TO A BIGGER NUMBER line:85% position:12% size:15% TODAY.
line:85% position:16% size:38% IN RESTAURANTS.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND IT WAS NEVER ABOUT HOW MUCH line:85% position:21% size:53% MONEY YOU COULD MAKE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% BECAUSE IF IT HAD BEEN THAT, I line:85% position:44% size:78% WOULD HAVE DONE SOMETHING A LOT line:85% position:50% size:80% MORE LUCRATIVE THAN BEING IN THE line:85% position:20% size:50% RESTAURANT BUSINESS.
line:85% position:40% size:75% BUT ALONG THE WAY, WE PROVIDED line:85% position:31% size:68% OPPORTUNITIES FOR PEOPLE TO line:85% position:44% size:78% BETTER THEMSELVES, TO MAKE MORE line:85% position:50% size:80% MONEY AND TO MAKE MORE MONEY FOR line:85% position:44% size:78% THE FAMILIES, AND IT IS AMAZING line:85% position:36% size:73% HOW THAT, WHEN THAT HAPPENED, line:85% position:50% size:80% HOW YOU TURN AROUND AND ALL OF A line:85% position:36% size:73% SUDDEN, NOW FORBES IS WRITING line:85% position:44% size:78% ABOUT YOU SAYING THIS AND THAT.
line:85% position:40% size:75% >> DID YOU EVER THINK THAT YOU line:85% position:36% size:73% LOST AT ANY POINT AS YOU WERE line:85% position:50% size:80% BUILDING YOUR BUSINESS, THAT YOU line:85% position:31% size:68% LOST TOUCH WITH THOSE BASIC line:85% position:14% size:28% PRINCIPLES?
line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT THE BUSINESS HAD GOTTEN TOO line:85% position:11% size:10% BIG?
line:85% position:20% size:50% >> I DON'T THINK SO.
line:85% position:44% size:78% I DON'T THINK THAT WE LOST THAT line:85% position:44% size:78% BECAUSE THAT BECAME THE CULTURE line:85% position:15% size:35% OF WHO WE ARE.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND IF THAT IS YOUR CULTURE, line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT'S HOW YOU DO BUSINESS, THEN line:85% position:25% size:60% PEOPLE WOULD COME TO GET line:85% position:40% size:75% INVOLVED WITH YOU, THEY EITHER line:85% position:31% size:68% FIT IN THE CULTURE, OR THEY line:85% position:44% size:78% ASSIMILATE OR THEY GO SOMEWHERE line:85% position:11% size:13% ELSE.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND SO THAT IS KIND OF THE TYPE line:85% position:36% size:73% OF COMPANY THAT WE BUILT OVER line:85% position:36% size:73% ALL OF THESE YEARS AND THAT'S line:85% position:50% size:80% WHY THE PEOPLE HAVE STAYED THERE line:85% position:50% size:80% ALL THAT TIME IS BECAUSE, IT HAS line:85% position:40% size:75% BEEN A -- YOU KNOW, WE HAVE AN line:85% position:50% size:80% INVERTED PYRAMID IN EVERY OFFICE line:85% position:44% size:78% THAT WE HAVE, AND AT THE TOP OF line:85% position:33% size:70% THAT INVERTED PYRAMID IS THE line:85% position:40% size:75% CUSTOMERS AND RIGHT BELOW THAT line:85% position:40% size:75% CUSTOMERS ARE THE CREW MEMBERS line:85% position:36% size:73% AND ALL THE WAY DOWN, AND THE line:85% position:33% size:70% PERSON AT THE BOTTOM OF THAT line:85% position:15% size:35% PYRAMID IS ME.
line:85% position:40% size:75% I'M THE LEAST IMPORTANT PERSON line:85% position:19% size:48% IN THE WHOLE THING.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND THAT IS HOW WE HAVE TRIED TO line:85% position:17% size:43% RUN THE BUSINESS.
line:85% position:29% size:65% AND SO, YEAH, THEY MAY SAY line:85% position:36% size:73% YOU'RE THE GUY THAT SIGNS THE line:85% position:33% size:70% CHECKS AND DOES ALL OF THOSE line:85% position:44% size:78% KINDS OF THINGS, BUT I CAN ONLY line:85% position:50% size:80% MAKE ONE HAMBURGER AT A TIME AND line:85% position:40% size:75% I WAS A LOT FASTER A FEW YEARS line:85% position:16% size:38% AGO DOING THAT.
line:85% position:29% size:65% SO IT IS STILL ABOUT THEM.
line:85% position:20% size:50% IT IS THEIR COMPANY.
line:85% position:31% size:68% >> HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK OF line:85% position:50% size:80% YOURSELF AS AN EX-NBA PLAYER, OR line:85% position:50% size:80% IS THAT SOMETHING THAT IS SO FAR line:85% position:36% size:73% IN THE PAST THAT OTHER PEOPLE line:85% position:36% size:73% BRING UP TO YOU ALL THE TIME?
line:85% position:50% size:80% ARE YOU A BUSINESS PERSON FIRST?
line:85% position:29% size:65% >> YOU KNOW, THAT'S A GOOD line:85% position:13% size:23% QUESTION.
line:85% position:36% size:73% >> HE ASKED THE SAME THING TO line:85% position:15% size:33% DONALD TRUMP.
line:85% position:13% size:25% >> DID HE.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:36% size:73% >> I WOULD LOVE TO KNOW THAT, line:85% position:44% size:78% YOU PROBABLY ASKED HIM WHAT ARE line:85% position:44% size:78% YOU AND WHAT ANSWER DID HE GIVE line:85% position:14% size:28% YOU, RIGHT?
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> WHEN I GOT OUT OF BASKETBALL, line:85% position:31% size:68% EVERYBODY THOUGHT THAT THEY line:85% position:31% size:68% CONSIDERED YOU A BASKETBALL line:85% position:15% size:33% PLAYER FIRST.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND SO A LOT OF PEOPLE THOUGHT line:85% position:36% size:73% THAT ALL THAT YOU WOULD DO IS line:85% position:14% size:28% BASKETBALL.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND IT TOOK A LONG TIME BEFORE line:85% position:33% size:70% PEOPLE STARTED TO SEE YOU AS line:85% position:29% size:65% SOMETHING DIFFERENT THAN A line:85% position:18% size:45% BASKETBALL PLAYER.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND NOW, IF ANYBODY REMEMBERS ME line:85% position:40% size:75% AS A BASKETBALL PLAYER, THEN I line:85% position:29% size:65% KNOW THAT THEY GOT A GREAT line:85% position:40% size:75% MEMORY OR THEY ARE AS OLD AS I line:85% position:11% size:8% AM.
line:85% position:36% size:73% SO -- BUT, THAT IS -- I DON'T line:85% position:11% size:13% KNOW.
line:85% position:31% size:68% I DON'T LOOK AT MYSELF AS A line:85% position:50% size:80% BASKETBALL PLAYER BECAUSE THAT'S line:85% position:17% size:43% LIKE A PAST LIFE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND I DON'T KNOW IF I EVEN SAT line:85% position:27% size:63% AND LOOKED AT MYSELF AS A line:85% position:50% size:80% BUSINESS PERSON BECAUSE THERE IS line:85% position:31% size:68% A LOT MORE -- A LOT SMARTER line:85% position:36% size:73% PEOPLE IN THE BUSINESS WORLD.
line:85% position:40% size:75% I JUST LOOK AT MYSELF AS BEING line:85% position:50% size:80% VERY FORTUNATE AND VERY BLESSED.
line:85% position:40% size:75% >> WOULD YOU TALK A LITTLE BIT line:85% position:31% size:68% ABOUT THE TRANSITION THAT'S line:85% position:15% size:33% GOING ON NOW.
line:85% position:40% size:75% WHAT IS -- READ A LOT ABOUT IT line:85% position:33% size:70% AND BOTTLING BUSINESS AND IS line:85% position:17% size:40% THAT THE FUTURE?
line:85% position:17% size:43% IS THAT A FUTURE?
line:85% position:40% size:75% HOW DOES IT -- HOW DID YOU GET line:85% position:40% size:75% INVOLVED IN IT AND HOW DOES IT line:85% position:21% size:53% PLAY OUT AND WHY NOW.
line:85% position:14% size:28% >> WHY NOW?
line:85% position:29% size:65% DO SOMETHING ELSE IN LIFE.
line:85% position:11% size:8% NO.
line:85% position:11% size:10% HAD.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:36% size:73% >> WHEN I LOOKED AROUND AT -- line:85% position:44% size:78% AND EVERYTHING THAT YOU DO, YOU line:85% position:44% size:78% DO FOR HOPEFULLY YOUR FAMILIES, line:85% position:44% size:78% AND YOU DO FOR MAYBE THEIR KIDS line:85% position:15% size:35% DOWN THE LINE.
line:85% position:22% size:55% AND SO I LOOKED AT THE line:85% position:50% size:80% RESTAURANT BUSINESS AND WHERE WE line:85% position:44% size:78% WERE TODAY, AND I SAID, IS THAT line:85% position:14% size:30% SUSTAINABLE?
line:85% position:19% size:48% AND IT PROBABLY IS.
line:85% position:50% size:80% IT MAY NOT BE SUSTAINABLE IN THE line:85% position:31% size:68% SAME FORMAT, SAME WAY, SAME line:85% position:50% size:80% BRANDS AND ALL THAT IT IS, IT IS line:85% position:12% size:15% TODAY.
line:85% position:50% size:80% PEOPLE ARE STILL GOING TO GO OUT line:85% position:12% size:18% TO EAT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THEY MAY JUST CHANGE HOW THEY DO line:85% position:40% size:75% THAT BUT WE'RE A BIG COCA-COLA line:85% position:40% size:75% CUSTOMER AND WHEN I HEARD THAT line:85% position:40% size:75% THEY WERE DIVESTING THEMSELVES line:85% position:40% size:75% OF THEIR BOTTLING DISTRIBUTION line:85% position:36% size:73% BUSINESS, I THOUGHT THAT THAT line:85% position:44% size:78% MAY BE SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD line:85% position:13% size:20% LOOK AT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% SO TWO YEARS AGO STARTED TO LOOK line:85% position:13% size:20% AT THAT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND FOR A WHOLE YEAR, THEY DID A line:85% position:20% size:50% LOT OF INTERVIEWING.
line:85% position:36% size:73% THEY WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT ME.
line:85% position:33% size:70% THEY WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT MY line:85% position:12% size:18% FAMILY.
line:85% position:40% size:75% THEY WANTED TO KNOW EVERYTHING line:85% position:13% size:25% ABOUT YOU.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND SO, I JUST THOUGHT THAT WAS line:85% position:18% size:45% A LITTLE OVERKILL.
line:85% position:33% size:70% BUT IT WAS IMPORTANT TO THEM line:85% position:25% size:60% THAT THEY HAVE WHAT THEY line:85% position:50% size:80% CONSIDER TO BE SOMEONE THAT FITS line:85% position:33% size:70% IN WITH WHAT THEY ARE DOING.
line:85% position:17% size:40% AND WHY IS THAT?
line:85% position:50% size:80% BECAUSE IN THE LAST 40, 50 YEAR, line:85% position:33% size:70% THEY'VE ONLY ADDED THREE NEW line:85% position:31% size:68% BOTTLERS IN THE WHOLE NORTH line:85% position:13% size:20% AMERICA.
line:85% position:44% size:78% AND SO, WE BECAME THE THIRD NEW line:85% position:36% size:73% BOTTLER THAT THEY'RE GOING TO line:85% position:11% size:13% HAVE.
line:85% position:17% size:40% AND WHY IS THAT?
line:85% position:21% size:53% BECAUSE WE CAN DEBATE line:85% position:36% size:73% CARBONNATED DRINKS AND SUGARY line:85% position:44% size:78% DRINKS AND ALL OF THAT, WHETHER line:85% position:36% size:73% THAT IS GOOD FOR YOU BUT THEY line:85% position:29% size:65% MAKE AND SELL ALL KINDS OF line:85% position:36% size:73% THINGS THAT MOST OF YOU DON'T line:85% position:44% size:78% EVEN KNOW ARE MADE BY COCA-COLA line:85% position:33% size:70% THAT ARE NOT THE DRINKS LIKE line:85% position:11% size:13% THAT.
line:85% position:40% size:75% SO I LOOKED AT IT THAT AT THIS line:85% position:40% size:75% POINT, IF I COULD DO THAT, AND line:85% position:44% size:78% GET SOMETHING LIKE THAT FOR THE line:85% position:40% size:75% KIDS, AND THE FAMILY THAT THAT line:85% position:33% size:70% WOULD BE SUSTAINABLE BECAUSE line:85% position:33% size:70% THERE ARE BOTTLERS THAT HAVE line:85% position:50% size:80% BEEN BOTTLING COCA-COLA FOR OVER line:85% position:13% size:25% 100 YEARS.
line:85% position:31% size:68% AND SO, I THOUGHT THAT IF I line:85% position:33% size:70% COULD MAKE THAT HAPPEN, THAT line:85% position:24% size:58% WOULD BE THE THING FOR.
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT LEGACY.
line:85% position:15% size:35% PASSING IT ON.
line:85% position:27% size:63% >> IS THAT AGE DEPENDENT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% COULD YOU HAVE THOUGHT OF LEGACY line:85% position:40% size:75% TEN YEARS AGO OR 20 YEARS AGO?
line:85% position:12% size:15% >> NO.
line:85% position:36% size:73% I THINK THAT WE WERE STILL IN line:85% position:33% size:70% SOMEWHAT OF PRACTICE GROWING line:85% position:29% size:65% MODE, TEN OR 20 YEARS AGO.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND THE IT IS EVEN FUNNY BECAUSE line:85% position:40% size:75% WHEN I TALK TO COCA-COLA AT MY line:85% position:40% size:75% YOUNG AGE, THEY THOUGHT THAT I line:85% position:40% size:75% WAS KIND OF -- YOU'RE A LITTLE line:85% position:31% size:68% OLD TO BE THINKING OF DOING line:85% position:16% size:38% SOMETHING ELSE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND SO, WHEN I TOLD THEM THAT IT line:85% position:44% size:78% WAS ABOUT THE KIDS, AND BROUGHT line:85% position:44% size:78% THE OLDEST SON TO GET INVOLVED, line:85% position:29% size:65% THEN THEY LOOKED AT THINGS line:85% position:14% size:30% DIFFERENTLY.
line:85% position:20% size:50% >> AND HOW DOES THAT line:85% position:33% size:70% CONVERSATION GO WITH YOU AND line:85% position:16% size:38% YOUR OLDER SON?
line:85% position:44% size:78% >> IT WENT -- WELL WHAT ARE YOU line:85% position:12% size:15% DOING.
line:85% position:31% size:68% NOTHING, OKAY, THIS IS WHAT line:85% position:33% size:70% YOU'RE GOING TO START DOING.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:44% size:78% >> THAT'S A SHORT CONVERSATION.
line:85% position:36% size:73% >> MAYBE THAT WAS TRUE 15, 20 line:85% position:36% size:73% YEARS AGO, BUT THEY ARE GROWN line:85% position:50% size:80% NOW, THEY ARE MARRIED, AND SO IT line:85% position:25% size:60% WAS -- IT WAS NOT JUST A line:85% position:15% size:33% CONVERSATION.
line:85% position:25% size:60% IT WAS ONE OF OUR FAMILY line:85% position:40% size:75% MEETINGS WHERE WE TALKED ABOUT line:85% position:40% size:75% EVERYTHING AND SO THAT WAS PUT line:85% position:25% size:60% ON THE TABLE TO SEE WHAT line:85% position:25% size:60% EVERYBODY THOUGHT ABOUT.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND SO IF WE WERE GOING TO DO line:85% position:36% size:73% THIS, SOMEONE HAD TO MAKE THE line:85% position:36% size:73% COMMITMENT OTHER THAN ME, AND line:85% position:50% size:80% SO, HE WAS ELECTED BY THE FAMILY line:85% position:15% size:35% TO BE THE ONE.
line:85% position:21% size:53% >> WE'RE IN KENTUCKY.
line:85% position:25% size:60% WHY ARE YOU IN KENTUCKY?
line:85% position:33% size:70% >> MY WIFE IS FROM KENTUCKY.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:11% size:8% NO.
line:85% position:36% size:73% NO, WHEN WE -- GOOD QUESTION.
line:85% position:44% size:78% WHEN I KNEW I WAS DONE PLAYING, line:85% position:50% size:80% WE LOOKED AT CHICAGO, DALLAS, WE line:85% position:44% size:78% LOOKED AT ATLANTA, WE LOOKED AT line:85% position:31% size:68% FOUR OR FIVE CITIES THAT WE line:85% position:36% size:73% THOUGHT MIGHT BE THE WHERE WE line:85% position:14% size:28% WANT TO BE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND WE WENT AND VISITED AND WE line:85% position:31% size:68% KNEW PEOPLE IN ALL OF THOSE line:85% position:36% size:73% CITIES AND LOOKED AT HOMES IN line:85% position:29% size:65% EVERY ONE OF THOSE CITIES.
line:85% position:21% size:53% IT DIDN'T FEEL RIGHT.
line:85% position:40% size:75% WE WERE IN THE CAR AND I SAID, line:85% position:50% size:80% WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT GOING TO line:85% position:14% size:28% LOUISVILLE.
line:85% position:33% size:70% AND SHE SAID REMEMBER WE GOT line:85% position:44% size:78% MARRIED, WE WERE WALKING OUT OF line:85% position:40% size:75% THE CHURCH, AND MY MOTHER CAME line:85% position:40% size:75% UP TO YOU AND YOU SAID, IF YOU line:85% position:36% size:73% DON'T WANT HER JUST BRING HER line:85% position:25% size:60% BACK AND WE'LL TAKE HER.
line:85% position:13% size:23% YOU KNOW.
line:85% position:14% size:30% [ LAUGHTER ] line:85% position:22% size:55% WHICH IS A TRUE STORY.
line:85% position:17% size:43% SHE DID SAY THAT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% SO SHE SAID YOU NEED TO BRING ME line:85% position:19% size:48% BACK TO LOUISVILLE.
line:85% position:31% size:68% AND I SAID WE LOOKED AT THE line:85% position:36% size:73% CITY, WE LOOKED AT THE PEOPLE line:85% position:33% size:70% HERE, WE LOOKED AT RAISING A line:85% position:40% size:75% FAMILY, COMPARED TO ALL OF THE line:85% position:50% size:80% MAJOR CITIES, LOUISVILLE WAS THE line:85% position:50% size:80% PLACE AND EVEN MORE IMPORTANTLY, line:85% position:44% size:78% WE LIVED IN L.A., AND MY OLDEST line:85% position:40% size:75% SON WAS ATTENDING ONE OF THESE line:85% position:50% size:80% SUPER ACCELERATED SCHOOLS, WHERE line:85% position:40% size:75% ALL THE STARS' KIDS WERE GOING line:85% position:50% size:80% TO AND YOU PAY A CRAZY AMOUNT OF line:85% position:40% size:75% MONEY FOR THEM TO GO THERE AND line:85% position:40% size:75% WE GET BACK TO LOUISVILLE, AND line:85% position:14% size:30% HE'S BEHIND.
line:85% position:11% size:13% YEAH.
line:85% position:50% size:80% AND I STARTED TO GO GET MY MONEY line:85% position:22% size:55% BACK OUT THERE IN L.A. line:85% position:50% size:80% BUT, I MEAN, THAT JUST SHOWS YOU line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT FOR THE MOST PART, WE DON'T line:85% position:24% size:58% KNOW WHAT WE HAVE HERE.
line:85% position:50% size:80% >> JUNIOR, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR line:85% position:29% size:65% SHARING YOUR TIME AND REST line:85% position:12% size:18% WISDOM.
line:85% position:21% size:53% REALLY APPRECIATE IT.
line:85% position:15% size:33% STICK AROUND.
line:85% position:40% size:75% YOU'LL BE HERE FOR THE C BLOCK line:85% position:31% size:68% WHERE WE TALK ABOUT WHAT WE line:85% position:13% size:20% LEARNED.
line:85% position:33% size:70% BUT, REALLY WE THANK YOU FOR line:85% position:19% size:48% OPENING UP WITH US.
line:85% position:33% size:70% >> AND DAN, LET'S TALK ABOUT line:85% position:29% size:65% WHAT WE LEARNED CAREFULLY.
line:85% position:14% size:30% HERE IS WHY.
line:85% position:40% size:75% THERE IS A FIRM, BIGGEST HEDGE line:85% position:25% size:60% FUND IN THE WORLD CALLED line:85% position:20% size:50% BRIDGEWATER BASED IN line:85% position:14% size:30% CONNECTICUT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% THEY HAVE A CORPORATE PHILOSOPHY line:85% position:33% size:70% CALLED RADICAL TRANSPARENCY.
line:85% position:31% size:68% THAT MEANS THAT YOU CAN SAY line:85% position:27% size:63% ANYTHING TO ANYONE IN THE line:85% position:44% size:78% COMPANY, YOUR BOSS, YOUR BOSS'S line:85% position:36% size:73% BOSS, THE C.E.O., AND YOU CAN line:85% position:50% size:80% SAY IT AND YOU HAVE TO SAY IT AS line:85% position:40% size:75% LONG AS IT IS HONEST AND IT IS line:85% position:15% size:33% ALL RECORDED.
line:85% position:33% size:70% WE'RE GOING TO PRACTICE THAT line:85% position:15% size:33% HERE TONIGHT.
line:85% position:50% size:80% BECAUSE WE ARE GOING TO MAKE OUR line:85% position:50% size:80% OBSERVATIONS WITH JUNIOR SITTING line:85% position:50% size:80% RIGHT NEXT TO US, GIVING HIM THE line:85% position:24% size:58% CHANCE TO REBUT OR SIT?
line:85% position:40% size:75% STUNNED SILENCE AS WE MAKE OUR line:85% position:15% size:33% OBSERVATIONS.
line:85% position:36% size:73% AND WE ACTUALLY THINK THIS IS line:85% position:40% size:75% THE BEST WAY FOR US TO BE ABLE line:85% position:33% size:70% TO TALK THROUGH WHAT WE HAVE line:85% position:13% size:20% LEARNED.
line:85% position:36% size:73% DAN, TELL ME YOUR TAKE AWAYS.
line:85% position:44% size:78% >> NUMBER ONE, I THINK FIRST OF line:85% position:44% size:78% ALL, I DIDN'T REALIZE HOW SHORT line:85% position:36% size:73% YOU WERE UNTIL I SAW YOU NEXT line:85% position:14% size:28% THE JUNIOR.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND THAT WAS A REAL EYE OWNER.
line:85% position:36% size:73% >> BUT STILL TALLER THAN WHAT line:85% position:36% size:73% YOU LOOK LIKE NEXT TO JUNIOR.
line:85% position:21% size:53% SO HOW DID THAT FEEL.
line:85% position:29% size:65% >> I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS A line:85% position:25% size:60% REALLY FASCINATING LOOK.
line:85% position:29% size:65% YOU THINK ABOUT PEOPLE WHO line:85% position:40% size:75% ARE -- YOU THINK ABOUT PLAYERS line:85% position:44% size:78% WHO ARE FINISHING THEIR CAREERS line:85% position:36% size:73% WITH INSANE AMOUNTS OF MONEY, line:85% position:50% size:80% AND ARE WONDERING WHAT TO DO YOU line:85% position:50% size:80% LOOK AT SOMEONE LIKE JUNIOR, WHO line:85% position:44% size:78% HAS MANAGED TO -- THIS IS SUPER line:85% position:15% size:35% UNCOMFORTABLE.
line:85% position:40% size:75% HAS MANAGED TO PUT -- SAY THIS line:85% position:50% size:80% IS A POINT IN MY LIFE THAT I WAS line:85% position:44% size:78% AN NBA PLAYER AND NOW I'M DOING line:85% position:50% size:80% SOMETHING TOTALLY DIFFERENT, AND line:85% position:50% size:80% THAT IS EVEN HAS BROUGHT ME EVEN line:85% position:40% size:75% GREATER SUCCESS THAN BEING ONE line:85% position:50% size:80% ONLY A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE TO HAVE line:85% position:31% size:68% PLAYED IN THE PRO LEVEL AND line:85% position:19% size:48% THAT'S FASCINATING.
line:85% position:31% size:68% >> I WOULD SAY WHEN I THINK line:85% position:29% size:65% ABOUT PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN line:85% position:21% size:53% INCREDIBLY SUCCESSFUL line:85% position:36% size:73% FINANCIALLY, THEY RARELY TALK line:85% position:33% size:70% ABOUT THAT THEIR PURSUIT WAS line:85% position:33% size:70% ABOUT MONEY AND WHEN I HEARD line:85% position:25% size:60% JUNIOR SAY TODAY, HE WAS line:85% position:36% size:73% OBSERVING AND TRYING TO THINK line:85% position:29% size:65% ABOUT CAREER PATH POST NBA line:85% position:36% size:73% CAREER, IT WAS THE EXCITEMENT line:85% position:31% size:68% THE OWNERSHIPS HAD, NOT THE line:85% position:40% size:75% WEALTH THAT WAS ACCUMULATED ON line:85% position:22% size:55% THAT PART OF THE ROOM.
line:85% position:40% size:75% AND I THINK THIS KIND OF NAIVE line:85% position:33% size:70% PURSUIT OF TRYING TO WIN THE line:85% position:44% size:78% LOTTERY, YOU KNOW, START A TECH line:85% position:50% size:80% BUSINESS, YOU KNOW, COME UP WITH line:85% position:27% size:63% THE GREAT IDEA THAT CURES line:85% position:12% size:18% CANCER.
