Welcome to Beyond the DJ Booth podcast.
00:00:18.707 --> 00:00:25.091
Welcome to Beyond the DJ Booth Podcast.
00:00:25.091 --> 00:00:31.274
I'm one of the co-hosts, brian B, my partner over here, mr Joseph Eagles Bun Jr.
00:00:31.274 --> 00:00:35.536
Yes, sir, season two, episode six we're batching content.
00:00:35.536 --> 00:00:46.021
We film about three or four episodes ahead, so if we miss something that's happening current day sorry it's not included, but this is the way we got to do it these days, right, busy people, bro.
00:00:46.021 --> 00:00:50.369
Well, speaking of busy, yeah, we had some gigs to close out the year.
00:00:50.369 --> 00:00:51.311
At least I did.
00:00:51.311 --> 00:00:52.582
I did too, did you?
00:00:52.862 --> 00:01:01.465
sort of the last gig of the year for me was december 29th, so before the new year a weird part between christmas and new year's.
00:01:01.484 --> 00:01:03.810
No, I was done like the 14th or 15th.
00:01:03.810 --> 00:01:05.614
I hit six in like two weeks.
00:01:05.819 --> 00:01:10.990
So I don't know if you feel this way, but like whenever it's the last gig of the year, I want to hit a home run, like that's my goal.
00:01:10.990 --> 00:01:12.486
I want to end it on a high note.
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:13.984
That didn't happen here.
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:15.204
Didn't happen for me either.
00:01:15.204 --> 00:01:17.561
Yeah, so tell me about your last gig of the year.
00:01:17.561 --> 00:01:19.683
I'll tell it was.
00:01:20.043 --> 00:01:26.271
It was a wedding and I intentionally shot the moment that I questioned my entire career.
00:01:26.271 --> 00:01:29.855
It was just peak dancing and dude, I don't know what was happening.
00:01:29.855 --> 00:01:30.775
Like it started.
00:01:30.775 --> 00:01:33.126
Well, yeah, ladies and gentlemen, dance floor was open.
00:01:33.126 --> 00:01:35.808
Dance, dance, dance party, party, party.
00:01:35.808 --> 00:01:37.004
It was a long dance set.
00:01:37.004 --> 00:01:40.188
You know, normally, like I've said on here before, I don't play three hour dance sets.
00:01:40.188 --> 00:01:47.662
At a wedding I usually play two.
00:01:47.662 --> 00:01:59.447
And then it just started to die to the point where I was playing and we'd look out there and like people were like almost like talking on the dance floor and not moving, and then it just became less and less people and there was nothing outdoors, like there was no you know other distractions outside of the room.
00:01:59.447 --> 00:02:16.813
It was bonkers man and it kind of had a resurgence, let's call it the last 30 minutes or so, like it didn't die to a slow death, but it was dying to the point where I'm like surely they're going to tell us to be done, or I can't remember the last time it happened to us was earlier last year.
00:02:17.401 --> 00:02:24.623
It was like a rehearsal dinner and the couple was super young and, yeah, the guests were older and it just was a rehearsal dinner, though not a wedding.
00:02:24.644 --> 00:02:28.853
I I don't remember the last time a wedding ended when it was supposed to.
00:02:28.853 --> 00:02:30.766
It was a bad way to end the year.
00:02:30.766 --> 00:02:32.948
I wanted the exact same thing as you.
00:02:32.948 --> 00:02:37.469
I wanted to end the year on a high note so that I opened up the next season feeling good.
00:02:37.469 --> 00:02:38.002
Did the client?
00:02:38.002 --> 00:02:38.784
How was the review?
00:02:38.784 --> 00:02:39.627
They were elated.
00:02:39.627 --> 00:02:40.945
They were elated.
00:02:40.945 --> 00:02:42.383
She hugged me at the end of the night.
00:02:42.383 --> 00:02:43.847
I think they left a review.
00:02:43.847 --> 00:02:45.431
They definitely texted me the next day.
00:02:45.431 --> 00:02:47.221
Everybody had so much fun Like.
00:02:47.221 --> 00:02:49.408
I think we're our own worst critics, man.
00:02:49.408 --> 00:02:50.926
We're very harsh on ourselves.
00:02:51.139 --> 00:02:54.991
I want and I guess I expect a full dance floor from the minute I open it.
00:02:54.991 --> 00:02:59.783
If I have to go through peaks and valleys, if I have to put two ballads in a three-hour dance, set okay.
00:02:59.783 --> 00:03:01.786
I'll reset the room, or whatever you call it.
00:03:01.825 --> 00:03:02.385
You know what I mean.
00:03:02.526 --> 00:03:03.606
It just didn't go well.
00:03:03.806 --> 00:03:07.030
Were you stressing a bit on the music choices where you're like I got?
00:03:07.090 --> 00:03:11.653
to the point where I kind of was you know they had definitely given me some songs.
00:03:11.653 --> 00:03:31.618
And then, what was strange you remember this right Say Quan like at the end of the night, the groom started coming up and like holding his phone up, and it was almost like he caught a buzz or had somebody in his ear.
00:03:31.502 --> 00:03:38.812
That was the first time he was really engaged that whole three hours, that last half hour, and I also think that maybe they were waiting for some of the older people to leave or something right, I couldn't really figure out the semantics behind why it went poorly, but it definitely did not go well in my eyes.
00:03:38.812 --> 00:03:39.716
Okay, what when?
00:03:39.816 --> 00:03:50.050
what you told me like a brief scenario for me, whenever I have something that's off, it's never one thing, it's like oh yeah, you told me, like a snowball Snowball effect, never easy.
00:03:50.050 --> 00:03:54.939
And I want to share these because I feel like this is the stuff that you don't post on Instagram, right?
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:56.123
Like it's always perfect.
00:03:56.123 --> 00:03:57.026
Nothing ever goes wrong.
00:03:57.046 --> 00:03:59.222
Rainbows puppy dogs, and that's not the case here.
00:03:59.222 --> 00:04:05.033
So my first bad sign that things were going to well I had hoped this wasn't the sign that this was the start of things.
00:04:05.033 --> 00:04:06.606
I was hoping this was my only thing, right.
00:04:06.606 --> 00:04:09.735
But I have a storage facility where I put everything.
00:04:09.735 --> 00:04:11.522
I remember this, yeah, and I don't know.
00:04:11.522 --> 00:04:13.890
I mean, you have an office here so you don't have this problem.
00:04:13.890 --> 00:04:17.850
But there are people who probably do what I do and get a storage unit because they don't have an office right.
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:25.120
Tons.
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:31.942
I see people every weekend working on the storage unit so got a new storage facility that's brand new, like this place has been open maybe two months and I went to it because a the price was cheaper, b it was clean like pristine, yeah, yeah.
00:04:31.942 --> 00:04:34.552
So I moved everything in there and it's in florida.
00:04:34.673 --> 00:04:36.399
In florida, I'm on the second floor.
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:37.322
That's always a negative.
00:04:37.322 --> 00:04:40.310
Yeah, I don't like to be up on elevators, but it is what it is.
00:04:40.310 --> 00:04:46.541
How to do it go in and both elevator banks are down and I'm just like, how am I gonna get my stuff out of here?
00:04:46.541 --> 00:04:56.538
And I see somebody has put a cart by the stairwell and I'm like, oh my god, I am going to have to bring everything by hand hand carry, and I had a lot of stuff.
00:04:56.538 --> 00:04:59.327
Thankfully, this is a plug for uh assistance.
00:04:59.447 --> 00:05:07.745
Yeah, I have an assistant that helps me roadie in and out, because I can't imagine trying to do this by myself, but I was so infuriated I mean, it's a national brand.
00:05:07.745 --> 00:05:10.249
Yeah, extra space storage I mean, they got places everywhere.
00:05:10.249 --> 00:05:11.951
No 24-7 number.
00:05:11.951 --> 00:05:15.214
I mean I am blowing this facility up on the voicemail just like.
00:05:15.214 --> 00:05:27.461
How can you do this to people you know?
00:05:27.461 --> 00:05:28.442
No sign, no way of getting a hold of somebody.
00:05:28.463 --> 00:05:30.810
This is just and terrible and I can understand maybe one bank going down but two yeah, just seemed odd.
00:05:31.151 --> 00:05:34.944
So we have to hand carry everything down, so I'm already running a little bit behind.
00:05:34.944 --> 00:05:37.310
I mean, I give myself way more margin than I need.
00:05:37.411 --> 00:05:41.247
But still, and you're pissed off, already, already, and I'm sweating.
00:05:41.286 --> 00:05:43.591
It's the middle of december in flor it's still hot, right.
00:05:43.591 --> 00:05:44.653
So I get there.
00:05:44.653 --> 00:05:50.946
And as I'm thinking about this couple, this couple is in medical school.
00:05:50.946 --> 00:05:55.422
If you know anything about the medical school field, you don't get to pick your school Like they basically assign you a spot to go do it.
00:05:55.422 --> 00:06:00.004
I don't remember the guy from Utah I'm drawing a blank on his name, but he ended up having to go to Florida as an example.
00:06:00.264 --> 00:06:02.370
Yeah, I know him, jordan, jordan, yeah, yeah, cool dude.
00:06:02.370 --> 00:06:07.262
So this bride and groom, both going to medical school, got assigned different States.
00:06:07.262 --> 00:06:10.108
They're in the region but they're not like close.
00:06:10.108 --> 00:06:12.663
So for a full year they've been in medical school.
00:06:12.663 --> 00:06:20.750
They got another year to go and they're going to have to live apart for another year while they finish married married apart.
00:06:20.750 --> 00:06:22.622
They've already lived apart for a year right.
00:06:22.802 --> 00:06:27.132
The groom super eclectic with his music, very indie.
00:06:27.132 --> 00:06:30.475
You can tell he's not a dancer, but he just likes to listen to music.
00:06:30.475 --> 00:06:33.927
A music guy, though, and I'm like we don't have anything pop on here whatsoever.
00:06:33.927 --> 00:06:35.050
No party classics.
00:06:35.050 --> 00:06:39.262
We're talking like Cage the Elephant, the Racketeurs, people like that that.
00:06:39.262 --> 00:06:42.930
You're like I can listen to it, yeah, but this is what we're playing for.
00:06:42.930 --> 00:06:45.194
Dancing, this is going to be a struggle bus.
00:06:45.194 --> 00:06:47.836
He made it sure that I wasn't going to play anything mainstream.
00:06:47.836 --> 00:06:51.206
He was like I just don't want that and I'm like are your guests going to want that?
00:06:51.206 --> 00:06:52.605
Like, let's just triple check.
00:06:52.605 --> 00:06:52.867
Yeah.
00:06:52.867 --> 00:06:55.288
Yeah, I will say he did dial it in with this crowd.
00:06:55.288 --> 00:06:57.767
His crowd was definitely that same kind of vibe.
00:06:57.767 --> 00:07:04.935
Yeah, so we, with the ceremony and this part of Florida, they go on a boat cruise, basically to pictures.
00:07:04.935 --> 00:07:10.052
For what's supposed to be 60 minutes, it's always 90 plus, because it just takes longer than they think.
00:07:10.172 --> 00:07:13.601
Yeah, yeah, so this is part of, like, the wedding package at this venue?
00:07:13.601 --> 00:07:14.464
Yeah, they get.
00:07:14.464 --> 00:07:15.247
What are you supposed to do?
00:07:15.415 --> 00:07:17.682
I'm playing for cocktail hour for the guests.
00:07:17.682 --> 00:07:18.665
This is just for the couple.
00:07:18.665 --> 00:07:21.983
They go on this cruise lane, so the guests are in there.
00:07:22.125 --> 00:07:23.814
They're, you know, eating the cocktail food.
00:07:23.814 --> 00:07:27.826
This isn't like a Jersey cocktail hour where it's like seven or eight courses deep Right.
00:07:27.826 --> 00:07:38.016
It's like a Southern one.
00:07:38.016 --> 00:07:38.437
Let's get going.
00:07:38.437 --> 00:07:39.319
They come back from the boat.
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:46.182
The mom of the bride is irritated at the bride because she didn't put all of her friends at her table.
00:07:46.182 --> 00:07:50.420
This is about a 200 person wedding, which for that area of Florida is pretty big.
00:07:50.420 --> 00:07:55.620
Bride's mom makes a stink and says we got to move these tables to make room for so-and-so at my table.
00:07:55.620 --> 00:07:56.964
This is after the cocktail hour.
00:07:56.964 --> 00:07:58.208
We've been there for 90 minutes.
00:07:58.454 --> 00:08:02.836
Right Dragged out, right she should have gone to the planner and done this, but she waited for her daughter to get back.
00:08:02.836 --> 00:08:08.939
Yeah, and so we got to wait another 30 minutes for them to do all this Right, and they had a massive wedding party.
00:08:08.939 --> 00:08:12.447
We're talking 15 on either side, 15, 30 people.
00:08:12.447 --> 00:08:16.956
I don't know 30 people, even like me.
00:08:16.956 --> 00:08:18.199
You're probably right, I'm just kidding, I'm the same.
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:20.985
My circle is super small, so we line them all up lots of names.
00:08:20.985 --> 00:08:23.040
The groom goes hey, can I go to the bathroom real quick?
00:08:23.060 --> 00:08:38.386
I'm like, okay you couldn't have done this in the you know a little bit of time I've been lining everybody up right so he turns, he goes oh my god, now look, and he has literally ripped his pants the entire way down his leg and I'm like, oh my God, this is just like yeah, what are we doing?
00:08:38.447 --> 00:08:38.706
Right?
00:08:38.826 --> 00:08:40.289
So I go and I look at the wedding party.
00:08:40.289 --> 00:08:41.739
I'm trying to size people up going.
00:08:41.739 --> 00:08:43.543
Who in this wedding party looks like this dude?
00:08:43.543 --> 00:08:46.178
Dude has an identical twin brother.
00:08:46.178 --> 00:08:47.120
Who's his best man?
00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:49.326
What are the chances, Right, Right.
00:08:49.326 --> 00:08:51.580
So I tell this dude I'm like you're going to be a hero tonight.
00:08:51.580 --> 00:08:52.582
Yeah, Switch pants.
00:08:52.623 --> 00:08:54.427
Drop, drop, trial, pal be a hero tonight.
00:08:54.427 --> 00:08:57.730
Yeah, switch pants drop, drop trowel pal totally and he did it, he did it, he totally did it not right there.
00:08:57.730 --> 00:08:59.211
I mean not right there, I mean with the bathroom.
00:08:59.250 --> 00:09:01.178
It did it, but I go dude, you just saved this wedding.
00:09:01.178 --> 00:09:02.543
I'm like you said what did he do?
00:09:02.602 --> 00:09:09.277
duct tape up the other no he just raw dogged it, which I thought was pretty cool because people were just kind of like what was happening, you know?
00:09:09.277 --> 00:09:10.619
But he just sucked it up.
00:09:10.619 --> 00:09:11.559
I go what a best man.
00:09:11.559 --> 00:09:12.942
That's what you're supposed to do, that's right.
00:09:12.942 --> 00:09:22.600
So they come in, we go into the formality dances and I'm noticing that the mother-son dance, the bride's kind of giving the evil eye to that mother and I'm like that's kind of weird.
00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:23.860
Why is she mean mugging?
00:09:23.860 --> 00:09:25.280
I don't really understand what's happening.
00:09:25.280 --> 00:09:27.638
So we get through it During the blessing.
00:09:27.638 --> 00:09:37.191
This is when the caterer comes up to me and goes We've got about 30 people who have a dietary issue and we don't know where to bring them their meals because they've all moved seats.
00:09:37.191 --> 00:09:39.943
This is happening while this blessing is taking place.
00:09:40.054 --> 00:09:41.418
You couldn't come to me like.
00:09:41.418 --> 00:09:43.345
I'm like this guy's going to end any second.
00:09:43.345 --> 00:09:45.282
Now I got to figure out what I'm going to do with these guests.
00:09:45.282 --> 00:09:50.267
Yeah, so he's like just tell them to come to the pre-function space and we'll figure it out.
00:09:59.254 --> 00:10:03.035
So, unplanned announcement that I've never, ever had to make in my life as a DJ All the vegetarians and gluten-free people please report to the ballroom, and I think maybe because they're in the medical field.
00:10:03.035 --> 00:10:04.366
There was just a lot of them, like there was 30 people or so.
00:10:04.366 --> 00:10:09.339
So I, you know, I'll say something along the lines of hey, I know we have a lot of people with some dietary restrictions.
00:10:09.339 --> 00:10:12.464
We've moved some tables, as you probably have seen us do.
00:10:12.464 --> 00:10:27.186
We need to ask anybody with that condition or that issue to make their way to the pre-function space to get with our catering staff, so we can do the right thing, we get to the toasts, okay, and I figured out what the issue was with the mother of the groom and the bride.
00:10:27.475 --> 00:10:30.445
The bride has a sister who's gay, okay.
00:10:30.445 --> 00:10:32.501
The groom's mom is super religious.
00:10:32.501 --> 00:10:43.427
So the groom's mom gets up there to give a toast, okay, and she goes something along the lines of like you know, if you stick close to the Lord, and she like emphasizes that, like you stay real close to the Lord, you know, yeah.
00:10:44.775 --> 00:10:53.306
Your marriage is going to have a great chance of success, or I don't remember exactly how she said it, yeah, and so the bride literally yells and goes we will.
00:10:53.306 --> 00:10:58.380
And I'm just like, oh, did we just get into?
00:10:58.421 --> 00:11:00.206
like a white trash, like situation right now, like what is happening.
00:11:00.226 --> 00:11:00.948
I'm like where am I?
00:11:00.948 --> 00:11:02.155
I've never had that happen at a wedding.
00:11:02.176 --> 00:11:04.022
I'm like is someone going to throw down like what's?
00:11:04.042 --> 00:11:04.503
happening.
00:11:04.503 --> 00:11:07.946
Now we're moving into the dancing and some of the other formalities.
00:11:07.946 --> 00:11:14.261
I get stuck with one of those photographers who charges by the hour and he's like I'm not going to stick any longer than what my contract says.
00:11:14.261 --> 00:11:19.470
I've been here all day and the fact that they're delayed and they've decided to take an extra 30 minutes like that's not my fault.
00:11:19.470 --> 00:11:22.783
So now we got to move every formality, which wasn't many left at that point.
00:11:22.783 --> 00:11:31.547
There was a cake cut, there was like something else, but we had to slam them all in, and so now I've got three hours of indie music that I've got to mix in.
00:11:36.154 --> 00:11:36.798
Right to mix in, right, no breaks.
00:11:36.798 --> 00:11:38.163
So you know, the first 30 minutes goes great, you know, whatever.
00:11:38.163 --> 00:11:51.278
But then after about an hour of this, I'm like I have to like, try something else, like there's no way we're going to be able to keep this up for this long, yeah, and anytime I pivoted to like anything current or any party classics, anything, I wasn't getting the choke sign but I was getting like let's move to something else or whatever.
00:11:51.278 --> 00:11:57.258
And it was just the hardest wedding, yeah, that I've had to do in a long time and it ends the year like that.
00:11:57.258 --> 00:11:58.844
Yeah, no gratuity.
00:11:58.844 --> 00:12:05.535
And at the same time I also felt like glad I was on this wedding, because anybody else this would have been a struggle tanked it, you know, tanked it, all these things.
00:12:05.556 --> 00:12:25.557
Yeah, you know, I've thought about that before, when either the music became hyper specific or it was some gear thing that you know you had to have all this wireless technology or extra speakers or this big sound or a huge room, and I'm like, dude, I'm so glad I'm assigned to this because anybody else would have frozen so at the end I'm not going back to the storage facility because I don't want to carry all this crap back up.
00:12:25.618 --> 00:12:32.643
But you know, again I was like so upset with the storage place because I was like now I gotta pay my guy to help me come back a day later.
00:12:32.643 --> 00:12:35.427
Yeah, you know, which that, which that's coming out of my pocket.
00:12:35.467 --> 00:12:36.408
Right, Like what's going on here.
00:12:36.755 --> 00:12:42.327
I ended up telling them like you have to move me to a first floor because I'm not going through this again and I run my business on the weekends.
00:12:42.327 --> 00:12:44.062
If you guys aren't here for the weekends, what am I supposed to do?
00:12:44.123 --> 00:12:45.870
Yeah, so they did, they did Nice.
00:12:50.159 --> 00:12:52.263
They moved me but hey, it happens.
00:12:52.263 --> 00:12:53.264
I'm just putting it out there.
00:12:53.264 --> 00:12:55.908
We're not all get the all puppy dogs and rainbows right.
00:12:55.908 --> 00:12:56.849
Sometimes it happens.
00:12:56.869 --> 00:12:57.509
I wish they were.
00:12:57.509 --> 00:12:58.370
I feel like we're.
00:12:58.370 --> 00:13:07.067
Transparency and realism are the themes of this show yeah, like we've never sat here and been like every weekend we smash parties like it's.
00:13:07.067 --> 00:13:08.561
Just sometimes it happens.
00:13:08.561 --> 00:13:10.269
It ain't gonna happen like that every time.
00:13:10.269 --> 00:13:11.133
What's it a question?
00:13:11.133 --> 00:13:12.317
Okay, let's do it.
00:13:12.317 --> 00:13:15.404
You read it, since I I have to turn my head oh okay.
00:13:15.424 --> 00:13:15.966
Yeah, I'll do it.
00:13:15.966 --> 00:13:18.059
It's directed at you actually.
00:13:18.059 --> 00:13:22.677
This is coming to us from billy rears a few times, all right gary, new hampshire.
00:13:22.677 --> 00:13:26.865
Question is joe, I know you hate dave ramsey.
00:13:26.865 --> 00:13:31.198
That's a strong word, but what should we be doing as djs to prepare for retirement?
00:13:31.760 --> 00:13:32.966
This is tough man.
00:13:32.966 --> 00:13:34.846
What's your beef with Dave Ramsey?
00:13:34.846 --> 00:13:36.145
I don't like the whole.
00:13:36.145 --> 00:13:37.666
Tell me your mortgage.
00:13:37.666 --> 00:13:39.086
Tell me your car payment.
00:13:39.086 --> 00:13:44.589
You're telling me that you spend $5,000 and you only make $85,000 a year.
00:13:44.589 --> 00:13:47.610
The math ain't math and fuck face, or whatever.
00:13:47.610 --> 00:13:49.144
He's just a dick.
00:13:49.144 --> 00:13:53.885
And then also, here's the thing man, Life is super short.
00:13:53.885 --> 00:13:56.700
I gave a seminar a couple of nights ago and I got super emotional.
00:13:56.879 --> 00:14:10.908
I literally showed a picture of my kids at the beginning of this talk a little bit right, I did yeah it's pretty much similar to what I did at pj collective yeah in 2023, but it's like life went by so fast, man, like even you can see it with your little girl, right?
00:14:10.928 --> 00:14:13.644
yeah, it's like one minute she was a baby, now she's a five-year-old.
00:14:13.644 --> 00:14:18.464
To me, like it went by like that, right even my son's, like boom, there were little boys.
00:14:18.664 --> 00:14:19.668
I saw you posted on instagram.
00:14:19.687 --> 00:14:31.802
Yeah, they were, they're 20 and 17 next week yeah like that's crazy to think about it and everybody says that right, it's just gonna go by the blink and life's super short, right, you don't know how much time you have with your parents, your friends, whatever.
00:14:32.443 --> 00:14:35.889
And this dude is telling me you know no credit cards.
00:14:35.889 --> 00:14:41.125
Uh, instead of going to get a $6 latte and a $4 scone every morning, you should put that money towards your mortgage.
00:14:41.125 --> 00:14:42.250
Fuck off, man.
00:14:42.250 --> 00:14:45.769
I mean honestly, I'm not going to do that, dude.
00:14:45.769 --> 00:14:58.725
I enjoy going and sitting at Yellow Dog Bakery every morning and sitting at the end of the bar and checking my Instagram and eating my damn delicious scone and drinking a delicious vanilla skim latte.
00:14:58.725 --> 00:15:02.500
Would I have paid off my mortgage four months earlier if I didn't do that every day?
00:15:02.500 --> 00:15:09.524
Maybe, but I'm just like I don't know that I'm not going to walk out in the parking lot later in the car and get hit by a train.
00:15:10.187 --> 00:15:11.188
It's just crazy.
00:15:11.188 --> 00:15:14.481
People think this dude is like some sort of a disciple.
00:15:14.481 --> 00:15:15.904
I'm not picking up what he's putting down.
00:15:15.904 --> 00:15:19.471
So if you follow Dave Ramsey and you're on that path, more power to you.
00:15:19.471 --> 00:15:21.722
If you're debt free, you're more man than me.
00:15:21.722 --> 00:15:30.139
I'm not great to answer this question because I'm not doing a good job at it, so maybe you can help us One of the biggest things that we've done as a couple.
00:15:30.399 --> 00:15:39.827
we got a financial advisor that helped us kind of get our bearings and, believe it or not, that helped us kind of get our our bearings, yeah, and believe it or not, like it's not that expensive.
