1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,580
(upbeat music)

2
00:00:02,580 --> 00:00:05,680
- I'm Scott.

3
00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:06,680
- I'm Russell.

4
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:07,520
- And I'm Leo.

5
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:08,360
This is Spitball.

6
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:10,940
(upbeat music)

7
00:00:10,940 --> 00:00:19,960
Welcome to Spitball, the Pitchin' Kitchen,

8
00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,040
where three lovable scamps, yours truly,

9
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,720
empty their heads of startup and tech product ideas

10
00:00:25,720 --> 00:00:26,940
that we have stuck up in there

11
00:00:26,940 --> 00:00:29,100
and you can all have them for free.

12
00:00:29,100 --> 00:00:31,660
Anything we say is yours to keep.

13
00:00:31,660 --> 00:00:33,580
Russell, you're up, go for it.

14
00:00:33,580 --> 00:00:34,420
- All right, guys.

15
00:00:34,420 --> 00:00:39,420
I've been sitting on this fresh idea for a long time.

16
00:00:39,420 --> 00:00:43,780
It is a, so what's great about this idea

17
00:00:43,780 --> 00:00:46,660
is it should be stolen because the three of us

18
00:00:46,660 --> 00:00:47,980
are married men.

19
00:00:47,980 --> 00:00:50,340
This is a dating app idea.

20
00:00:50,340 --> 00:00:54,820
Scott, you are the winner of the dating app world.

21
00:00:54,820 --> 00:00:58,860
So your feedback's highly anticipated.

22
00:00:58,860 --> 00:00:59,700
- Okay.

23
00:00:59,700 --> 00:01:01,580
- And married men cannot create dating apps.

24
00:01:01,580 --> 00:01:02,420
We all know this.

25
00:01:02,420 --> 00:01:03,240
- Nope.

26
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:04,080
- I guess not.

27
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:04,920
(laughing)

28
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:05,900
Definitely not, right?

29
00:01:05,900 --> 00:01:07,500
So, okay.

30
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:08,620
Here's the problem.

31
00:01:08,620 --> 00:01:10,300
And this is why I think about a lot of dating apps

32
00:01:10,300 --> 00:01:13,760
because all of Carrie's friends, my wife's friends,

33
00:01:13,760 --> 00:01:15,580
all are trying to get married, not married.

34
00:01:15,580 --> 00:01:17,460
They're all trying to find people.

35
00:01:17,460 --> 00:01:19,980
And every time, I feel like the women's side

36
00:01:19,980 --> 00:01:22,720
of the dating app world really sucks.

37
00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:26,260
I know for guys it does too, but like the unsolicited

38
00:01:26,260 --> 00:01:27,100
- Extra sucks.

39
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:32,220
pigs, the un like there's just so much harassment or whatever on there.

40
00:01:32,220 --> 00:01:39,300
I, I can't even begin to understand, but all I have to say is as a wingman in

41
00:01:39,300 --> 00:01:46,540
training or a wingman extraordinaire, I am constantly seeking suitors for my

42
00:01:46,540 --> 00:01:47,620
wife's friends.

43
00:01:47,620 --> 00:01:48,460
Okay.

44
00:01:48,460 --> 00:01:49,300
Sure.

45
00:01:49,300 --> 00:01:54,340
So the reason, and so you're going to hear a lot as, as you subscribe to our

46
00:01:54,340 --> 00:01:58,580
podcast, you're going to hear a couple of these dating app ideas because I got I

47
00:01:58,580 --> 00:01:59,900
have a lot of them right.

48
00:01:59,900 --> 00:02:02,900
This one is this one's a good one for your wife.

49
00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:03,980
This one's a good one.

50
00:02:03,980 --> 00:02:05,620
Russell's love corner.

51
00:02:05,620 --> 00:02:11,580
So new second, OK, the dating app is called Friend of a Friend.

52
00:02:11,580 --> 00:02:12,500
All right.

53
00:02:12,500 --> 00:02:21,020
OK, so the idea is that you as the person that wants to find a suitor for your

54
00:02:21,020 --> 00:02:21,580
friend, right?

55
00:02:21,580 --> 00:02:24,420
Because basically if your best friend is trying to find a

56
00:02:24,420 --> 00:02:27,620
boyfriend or whatever, they're going to become a part of your

57
00:02:27,620 --> 00:02:28,380
friend group.

58
00:02:28,380 --> 00:02:33,820
So why not pick and choose Spice Girl style?

59
00:02:33,820 --> 00:02:38,140
If you want to be my friend's lover, you got to get with me.

60
00:02:38,140 --> 00:02:38,620
Right?

61
00:02:38,620 --> 00:02:42,580
So you're literally betting platonically, right?

62
00:02:42,580 --> 00:02:47,020
Your wife's friends, perhaps potential significant others.

63
00:02:47,020 --> 00:02:47,700
Yes.

64
00:02:47,700 --> 00:02:48,020
Okay.

65
00:02:48,060 --> 00:02:51,660
This is my dilemma that I'm solving with a dating app.

66
00:02:51,660 --> 00:02:54,300
Couple rules, right?

67
00:02:54,300 --> 00:02:57,040
It's basically you're posting pictures of you

68
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,160
with your friend, right?

69
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,780
And friends of friends are matching each other

70
00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:04,900
to each other, right?

71
00:03:04,900 --> 00:03:09,100
So for example, we got a friend,

72
00:03:09,100 --> 00:03:12,940
his name is, we'll call him Phil, okay?

73
00:03:12,940 --> 00:03:14,060
Guy named Phil.

74
00:03:15,540 --> 00:03:21,220
I just want to say if I take photos with him, I am now able to post pictures of this person,

75
00:03:21,220 --> 00:03:22,220
right?

76
00:03:22,220 --> 00:03:29,820
So it kind of removes an element of scaminess, elements of, you know, bad behavior because

77
00:03:29,820 --> 00:03:32,060
you're taking pictures with that friend, right?

78
00:03:32,060 --> 00:03:36,220
So friend of a friend, someone is vouching for you.

79
00:03:36,220 --> 00:03:37,220
Exactly.

80
00:03:37,220 --> 00:03:38,220
Phil.

81
00:03:38,220 --> 00:03:40,420
For Phil in this scenario, right?

82
00:03:40,420 --> 00:03:41,420
And that's the goal.

83
00:03:41,420 --> 00:03:45,280
So are you setting up all of your friends on the blind dates?

84
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:49,880
Are you picking the suitors for them and they are just sort of getting fed people that you've sent their way?

85
00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:54,720
Best part here, because it's double dates. They're all double dates, right?

86
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:54,720
Oh.

87
00:03:54,720 --> 00:04:00,920
Everything's a double date at that point because you meet somebody who's got a friend. I have a

88
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,400
friend. Now we're on a double date, right? Or a triple date.

89
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:08,600
You are productizing the actual experience that you're having over and over again here in real

90
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,480
life, going on all these double dates and trying to match people up in real life.

91
00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,880
The end user isn't the people looking for significant others. It's you who has a

92
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,840
a friend who's looking for someone.

93
00:04:16,840 --> 00:04:17,840
You are a broker.

94
00:04:17,840 --> 00:04:21,420
Yes, you are the broker, the friend broker.

95
00:04:21,420 --> 00:04:24,320
It's kind of like the realtor relationships, right?

96
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,680
You have a buyer, seller, you meet them in the middle and we match them, right?

97
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,440
And it's kind of like that.

98
00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,160
So here's what's crazy.

99
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:33,880
I tried this out actually.

100
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:42,620
I started a Facebook group called Friend of a Friend with some of Cary's friends and immediately

101
00:04:42,620 --> 00:04:46,700
when they heard about my idea, they started taking pictures of themselves in groups.

102
00:04:46,700 --> 00:04:49,580
Like, so they like, oh, take a picture with me, take a picture with me. And I'm like,

103
00:04:49,580 --> 00:04:52,540
well, it's like circle the person you're talking about in the group pictures.

104
00:04:52,540 --> 00:04:56,780
Well, yeah, it's kind of like, all right, if you're gonna take pictures of me and post them,

105
00:04:56,780 --> 00:05:02,060
I want you to find a person, we both need to look good, right? So now they're taking pictures of

106
00:05:02,060 --> 00:05:05,900
both of them together. And they kind of like it, because it's fun to take pictures of themselves.

107
00:05:05,900 --> 00:05:12,700
and it just, it builds on top of each other really well. But simply put, that's the app,

108
00:05:12,700 --> 00:05:16,060
friend of a friend. Does the actual person who's getting

109
00:05:16,060 --> 00:05:22,140
matched, the friend, are they using the app at all? Or is this entirely for-

110
00:05:22,140 --> 00:05:23,580
Entirely- Friends only.

111
00:05:23,580 --> 00:05:28,700
Friend, the friend is the only people on the app. Now, there's no rules behind what happens

112
00:05:28,700 --> 00:05:30,860
outside the app, right? So if you're- Well, sure.

113
00:05:30,860 --> 00:05:33,100
your friends in the room.

114
00:05:33,100 --> 00:05:36,440
I found this, you know, but that person can't join.

115
00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:41,280
So, I mean, they can, but they have to be soliciting a friend, I guess.

116
00:05:41,280 --> 00:05:43,780
So they have to bring their own friends.

117
00:05:43,780 --> 00:05:46,440
That's right. Exactly. Right.

118
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,200
Because when you first started pitching this, I was nervous

119
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,440
that this was just going to be an easily copyable feature

120
00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,360
for the tenders and hinges of the world to just take and add into their own apps.

121
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,940
But you're fostering an entirely different community.

122
00:05:57,940 --> 00:06:00,280
Brilliant. Brilliant.

123
00:06:00,280 --> 00:06:03,780
And it's because people don't want to do dating apps,

124
00:06:03,780 --> 00:06:06,820
but their friends want them to do dating apps.

125
00:06:06,820 --> 00:06:11,200
And so there's this like niche of friends that want their friends to do dating apps.

126
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:12,200
But sure.

127
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:15,880
And especially like somebody like my wife and I love to do the dating apps

128
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,800
for their friends.

129
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,960
There's just it's fun to get a big group to help make a profile.

130
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:23,880
Yeah. And you know, let's lean into that.

131
00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:25,140
Right. Let's create an app for that.

132
00:06:25,140 --> 00:06:26,720
So great.

133
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,920
I mean, that's I. Yeah.

134
00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:32,680
What do you, yeah, Scott, dating app extraordinaire.

135
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,180
What do you think?

136
00:06:34,180 --> 00:06:38,560
Having multiple eyes on the profile is always good.

137
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,560
I I'm just picturing like that first date scenario, though,

138
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:45,820
because like right now it's Russell, it's you and Carrie

139
00:06:45,820 --> 00:06:48,060
are trying to set up your friend, Phil.

140
00:06:48,060 --> 00:06:50,320
So it's the three of you guys on one team

141
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:54,940
and you have randomly met with these other three people on another team,

142
00:06:54,940 --> 00:06:57,860
we'll call it, and you all go out to get drinks together.

143
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,840
And it's going to be you and Carrie and the other married couple just staring at

144
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:03,440
your two friends the entire time.

145
00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:04,640
Like, is there chemistry?

146
00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,640
Do you like him yet?

147
00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:08,800
How's he doing?

148
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:12,560
And then one of them goes to the bathroom and everyone else is just like, okay, okay.

149
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,080
Let's, let's break down what's happening.

150
00:07:14,080 --> 00:07:14,800
Play by play.

151
00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:18,160
How is that worse than a regular double date situation though?

152
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:18,480
Right?

153
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:20,880
I mean, that's still, does that still happen in 2023?

154
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,000
No, no, it's great.

155
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:26,000
I don't know if that still happens or not, but this at least creates a scenario where

156
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:32,480
can happen. That's a good point. That's a good point. I wonder how the actual dates would end up

157
00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:37,200
going. Right? You might just go on one date, try the try the app, and you actually end up on a

158
00:07:37,200 --> 00:07:43,920
date. And then you're just like, Oh, that was weird. Just like, all around. All right, I'm

159
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:49,840
ready to punch up your idea. So please, have you heard of the Hollywood Stock Exchange?

160
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:55,600
Hollywood. No, Hollywood Stock Exchange is a role playing like

161
00:07:55,600 --> 00:08:00,320
fake stock trading app. But instead of trading stocks, you

162
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:03,160
are investing in celebrities when they're up and coming

163
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,040
trying to bet on who's going to be the big deal before they

164
00:08:06,040 --> 00:08:09,640
actually become a thing. I imagine that if you are in

165
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:14,000
friend of a friend, and you fire up your your app, you're not

166
00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,360
looking at just one friend's profile that you're trying to

167
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:22,080
set up right? You've got several. So can this be gamified

168
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:27,680
for the person who is creating profiles, this profile gets a

169
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:30,040
lot of interest because I've really worked hard on it. My

170
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,160
friend over here is looking great. My other one over here is

171
00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:36,920
kind of a dud right now. How do we incentivize these profiles

172
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:41,960
and get punched up? I'll give you 21. It's like it's Pokemon

173
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:46,080
trading cards, but they're your friends, right? This is a super

174
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,360
ultra rare holographic Charizard because she's my hot friend.

175
00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,320
Whoa.

176
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:56,240
So how do we how do we use this to our advantage to make each

177
00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:59,160
profile on there better? Because the secret sauce of all dating

178
00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,080
apps is having a good profile candidates, right?

179
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:04,520
Man, it's incredible.

180
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:08,120
Can we use this as a way to punch up each other's profiles

181
00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,040
and turn it into a competition? And in addition to trying to

182
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:14,720
find the match, you know, you not only do you want to win

183
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:19,800
Pokemon battles by doing your match, but you want to make the best collection you can.

184
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:22,240
I will build the best friend group possible.

185
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,120
Oh my gosh, it's like wingman trading cards, right?

186
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:27,360
It's like, oh.

187
00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,240
It's Queer Eye for all of your different friends, right?

188
00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:35,320
You're going in and you're like finding the best photos you can of all of them.

189
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,980
You're creating your perfect deck.

190
00:09:37,980 --> 00:09:40,080
It's a little bit dehumanizing, but.

191
00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:41,800
So is Tinder, it's fine.

192
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,840
So is the dating apps, right?

193
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,240
So are all dating.

194
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:50,880
Just capitalizing on that more.

195
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,180
So it's it's a feed.

196
00:09:52,180 --> 00:09:55,680
So it's like the feedback system there, right?

197
00:09:55,680 --> 00:09:59,520
So in a way, how I guess you could use that now.

198
00:09:59,520 --> 00:10:04,520
Like how do you create like a feedback loop that isn't that's more fun?

199
00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:06,480
I guess more.

200
00:10:06,480 --> 00:10:12,040
Sure like but Scott would never share his dating profile with like with our friend.

201
00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:14,720
I would share my profile all the time.

202
00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,440
You'd be like, guys, give me feedback on here.

203
00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:18,160
Like, do I look stupid in this picture?

204
00:10:18,160 --> 00:10:20,160
Like, what should I do for what should I,

205
00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,880
is this a clever like description of myself or something?

206
00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,760
Never show the messages though.

207
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,080
- You know, there's a world,

208
00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,480
there's like a bunch of like rate me subreddits, right?

209
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,480
Like.

210
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:34,720
- That's how Facebook started, right?

211
00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:36,440
- Right, hot or not. - Hot or not or whatever.

212
00:10:36,440 --> 00:10:38,480
- Maybe there's an element of that too.

213
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:42,280
We bring like a, there's something there.

214
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:46,200
How do we gamify your hot friends? Your hot single friends?

215
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:47,880
I feel like we're on the cusp of something here,

216
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,760
but I don't quite know what it is. I know, right?

217
00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,640
Or the person, the listener who's hearing this now,

218
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:59,480
we'll take that idea and finally put the cherry on top and become a trillionaire.

219
00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:06,440
All right, Leo, what do you got?

220
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:09,100
All right, we're thinking big for this one.

221
00:11:09,100 --> 00:11:10,280
Big hardware project.

222
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:11,120
- Oh boy.

223
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:14,360
- So, I want you to really think about your dishwasher.

224
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:16,640
Think about all the interior of it.

225
00:11:16,640 --> 00:11:18,780
You've got, so you take out the racks.

226
00:11:18,780 --> 00:11:20,680
We're not actually washing racks with this device,

227
00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:25,000
but you've got an extremely efficient way

228
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,360
of using water to make a bunch of stuff that's dirty clean.

229
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:30,620
You've got a sprayer that recirculates.

230
00:11:30,620 --> 00:11:33,200
You've got a heating and drying element.

231
00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:34,960
Now we're gonna blow it up

232
00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,880
and we're gonna put it in your garage.

233
00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:39,520
This is gonna be an apparatus that we're installing

234
00:11:39,520 --> 00:11:42,040
in our own home.

235
00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:44,360
We might have to have some like tarp walls or something.

236
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,720
I haven't quite figured out boxing it in entirely.

237
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:48,460
But we live here in Michigan

238
00:11:48,460 --> 00:11:50,040
where there's salt on the roads, right?

239
00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:53,720
And you can't go to the car wash

240
00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:57,000
unless it's above 30 degree day

241
00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,440
and it happens to be sunny and happens to be nice.

242
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,400
What if every time you parked your car,

243
00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:04,620
we had a small amount of water that's recirculated,

244
00:12:04,620 --> 00:12:06,760
we are spraying it all over the car,

245
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,120
We are getting the undercarriage, we're getting all over,

246
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:13,040
and we are drying it with heating elements

247
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,780
every single time.

248
00:12:14,780 --> 00:12:17,240
In a world where we are plugging in our cars to charge,

249
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:18,940
it's gonna be amazing when we start every day

250
00:12:18,940 --> 00:12:21,960
with a clean, full tank,

251
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,040
ready to go off the lot looking car, right?

252
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:26,720
There's gonna be some mold to deal with,

253
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:28,680
but that's my pitch.

254
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:31,480
- We'll figure that part out.

255
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,440
- That part's the easy part, right?

256
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,360
The rest of the, everything else around it.

257
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:37,520
- Positioning of the sprayers and stuff,

258
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,000
it doesn't have to be exactly the same, right?

259
00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:40,440
You gotta have a couple in the corner

260
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:42,640
and you got a couple on top and bottom,

261
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,600
but you don't need a ton of water to get something clean.

262
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:50,020
- Yeah, just like a two, maybe three axis arm

263
00:12:50,020 --> 00:12:53,160
that comes down and just like very like

264
00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:56,080
targeted sprays your car in certain areas of going through.

265
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,840
- A lot of garages have drains in them, that can be solved.

266
00:12:59,840 --> 00:13:02,560
Most have like hose nearby.

267
00:13:02,560 --> 00:13:05,300
- Actually, could you, I'm almost thinking,

268
00:13:05,300 --> 00:13:09,740
Could you make this out of with less hardware, I guess, where less a full.

269
00:13:09,740 --> 00:13:14,300
I'm, you know, immediately I'm picturing like a G code running, like 3d printer

270
00:13:14,300 --> 00:13:15,800
thing, that's going over your car.

271
00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:16,500
Uh, sure.

272
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:18,180
Could we just make it a single.

273
00:13:18,180 --> 00:13:25,260
Standalone unit like that, uh, that robot and, uh, Iron Man, the little arm robot

274
00:13:25,260 --> 00:13:29,220
that would always, it was the butt of all the jokes, could we just put a hose or

275
00:13:29,220 --> 00:13:30,680
something on something like that?

276
00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:34,540
And it'll just go around your car and actively clean it.

277
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,280
You know, like a room that takes a long time, but it doesn't matter because it's at night

278
00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:39,280
while you're sleeping.

279
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:40,280
Yes.

280
00:13:40,280 --> 00:13:41,280
Seems like a lot of moving parts.

281
00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:42,280
And that makes so much sense.

282
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:44,960
I was thinking the opposite where we have one giant molded piece of plastic like those

283
00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:49,860
sheds you buy at a hardware store, and you put that inside the garage as another layer

284
00:13:49,860 --> 00:13:51,600
of a building within a building.

285
00:13:51,600 --> 00:13:54,480
I wanted to overcomplicate it compared to your idea.

286
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:58,400
So Leo, you were saying one giant piece, right?

287
00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:00,320
And there's like the 3D printer model.

288
00:14:00,320 --> 00:14:03,920
Like all right, just a little spot where you just go up and down.

289
00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:09,280
I guess like they have these, so for trucks, if you have like a truck camper, they have

290
00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:10,280
the thing on top.

291
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:15,960
So like they actually have like lifts where you can like pulley system your, you know,

292
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:17,480
like the trucks have like covers.

293
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,400
Do you guys know what I'm talking about?

294
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:21,400
No, a cover.

295
00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:22,400
Okay.

296
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:26,760
So, so trucks, like, you know, Ford F-150, they have the truck bed, but you can actually

297
00:14:26,760 --> 00:14:27,760
buy like a roof.

298
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:28,760
Oh yeah.

299
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:29,760
Right.

300
00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:30,760
Totally.

301
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:31,760
I thought you meant semi's.

302
00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:32,760
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

303
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:33,760
Oh yeah, no, just the truck.

304
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:35,360
F-150, right?

305
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:36,200
- Pickup truck.

306
00:14:36,200 --> 00:14:37,480
- And you can buy something in your car,

307
00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,080
in your garage, like lift it up, right?

308
00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,880
So I guess you could just install,

309
00:14:42,880 --> 00:14:46,080
let's say you put a hose, or a heater,

310
00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,440
like a water heater at the top of your garage,

311
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:52,880
and then like one X-axis, one line, right?

312
00:14:52,880 --> 00:14:55,840
And so as you're like backing into your garage,

313
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:57,820
or out of your, well I guess you could do forward and back,

314
00:14:57,820 --> 00:14:59,920
but like you could do something where you're just,

315
00:14:59,920 --> 00:15:02,000
as you're backing out, it's like turn on,

316
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:06,160
and it just rinses the car as you back out.

317
00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:07,000
And then you're on the road.

318
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:08,400
- An archway with sprayers.

319
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:13,080
- Yes, an archway with sprayers, exactly.

320
00:15:13,080 --> 00:15:14,320
- All right, new pitch.

321
00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:15,820
You have an archway of sprayers

322
00:15:15,820 --> 00:15:18,160
that you put on the garage door on the outside.

323
00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:23,160
You hook up to your hose and it soaps it in, rinses.

324
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:24,520
- You can buy this. - It's just water.

325
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:25,920
There's no soap. - They have.

326
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:28,360
- Pulling it in and out a couple dozen times.

327
00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,800
- They have this for like, what is it, weed and feed.

328
00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:32,980
Like when you're doing the lawn,

329
00:15:32,980 --> 00:15:36,320
you just attach like a soap module and there you go.

330
00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:38,420
You got your monetization strategy, okay?

331
00:15:38,420 --> 00:15:42,160
You only have to, you have the special hose hookup

332
00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:44,860
that works with the archway and now it's like--

333
00:15:44,860 --> 00:15:46,120
- Car wash pods.

334
00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,640
- Yes.

335
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,240
- Your detergent pods.

336
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,360
How do we podify it?

337
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,000
- Honestly, there are enough people

338
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:58,160
that buy unlimited car washes that would just be like,

339
00:15:58,160 --> 00:15:59,700
this is how I do my life.

340
00:15:59,700 --> 00:16:02,540
- I'm a little worried about the exterior,

341
00:16:02,540 --> 00:16:05,420
spraying down my driveway with water

342
00:16:05,420 --> 00:16:07,660
every day in the winter move.

343
00:16:07,660 --> 00:16:10,020
Yeah. - Salt?

344
00:16:10,020 --> 00:16:13,700
- It sprays with salt water.

345
00:16:13,700 --> 00:16:17,140
Perfect, corrodes your car away in like 18 months.

346
00:16:17,140 --> 00:16:17,980
That's perfect.

347
00:16:17,980 --> 00:16:20,020
Rusts out the frame right under you.

348
00:16:20,020 --> 00:16:21,180
- That has some traction, Leo.

349
00:16:21,180 --> 00:16:22,880
I'm surprised it doesn't exist.

350
00:16:22,880 --> 00:16:26,660
It's just like, I mean, like it's one of those like.

351
00:16:27,740 --> 00:16:30,020
- It feels like the kind of thing that you'd see on cribs

352
00:16:30,020 --> 00:16:34,060
where some guy has a car wash in his garage and yeah.

353
00:16:34,060 --> 00:16:36,300
- This seems like somebody in the South is like,

354
00:16:36,300 --> 00:16:40,460
all right, I live on a farm, my truck gets dirty every day.

355
00:16:40,460 --> 00:16:45,220
I need an invention that cleans my truck

356
00:16:45,220 --> 00:16:47,900
every time I pull in, boom.

357
00:16:47,900 --> 00:16:50,820
So like the reusable water element is an add on

358
00:16:50,820 --> 00:16:52,340
because some people are just like,

359
00:16:52,340 --> 00:16:54,820
I don't care, I leave my garage door open.

360
00:16:54,820 --> 00:16:57,420
- The archway is a cool idea because it could go anywhere.

361
00:16:57,420 --> 00:17:01,360
Like at the end of the driveway on my way out to the farm or whatever.

362
00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:04,960
When I'm going in and out of this construction site, it goes up and it has

363
00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:07,840
like all the dump trucks and shit that go through it.

364
00:17:07,840 --> 00:17:08,760
Ooh.

365
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:09,640
Yeah.

366
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:10,960
Then they're, they're on the road.

367
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,240
There might be a commercial application.

368
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,880
That's, yeah, exactly.

369
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:16,680
Think about that B2B baby.

370
00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:18,360
Right.

371
00:17:18,360 --> 00:17:24,900
All right, Scott, what do you got?

372
00:17:24,900 --> 00:17:25,480
Hit us up.

373
00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:26,240
Okay.

374
00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:29,940
So I'm also thinking product idea, but much smaller.

375
00:17:29,940 --> 00:17:33,900
So I was scooting around Alibaba the other day.

376
00:17:33,900 --> 00:17:37,240
I just love looking at that for random, like cheap products

377
00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:39,600
that you can get from China and see how you can remarket it and whatnot.

378
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:40,900
And me too.

379
00:17:40,900 --> 00:17:42,800
I came across this.

380
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,700
It it looks like like a that was easy button.

381
00:17:46,700 --> 00:17:49,640
Really small.

382
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,040
And it's just a big button that you just want to press by looking at this thing.

383
00:17:53,040 --> 00:17:56,000
But at the same time, I had a USB cable coming out of it.

384
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,680
And I'm like, what the heck is this thing?

385
00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:04,480
And I realized, uh, it described it as a like marketing material that you have at

386
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:07,280
trade shows or something, and you put your logo on top on the button.

387
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,800
And what happens is that you take, you give these out to people and then they

388
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:14,800
plug it into their computer and when they hit the button, it'll open up their

389
00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:16,680
web browser and go to your website.

390
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,240
I'm like, oh, that's cool.

391
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:23,600
Um, but then I saw one that had a button and an led inside of it.

392
00:18:23,620 --> 00:18:26,180
So like when you press the button, the whole thing lights up.

393
00:18:26,180 --> 00:18:28,140
And this is cool.

394
00:18:28,140 --> 00:18:32,420
This is a lot of hardware for very cheap.

395
00:18:32,420 --> 00:18:34,620
It is a button slash switch.

396
00:18:34,620 --> 00:18:36,180
It's LEDs on here.

397
00:18:36,180 --> 00:18:41,700
It's got a little microcontroller already built in that you can, that can automatically

398
00:18:41,700 --> 00:18:44,300
download drivers and do whatever and connect to your computer.

399
00:18:44,300 --> 00:18:46,760
Just like a, like a keyboard.

400
00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:49,820
Like I can plug in a mouse and a mouse will just work through HID.

401
00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:55,920
And so I'm thinking like there's got to be a lot of applications for something like this,

402
00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:00,800
besides going to an open or besides opening up a URL for you.

403
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:06,240
And so I love playing RTSs, random video games, strategy stuff.

404
00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:09,200
And when you're playing these, you're always looking at a million different things at once.

405
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:16,240
And I was thinking, is it possible we could write a Python script or something that is

406
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:21,200
looking at the screen and if I'm forgetting to do something in the game,

407
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:23,700
it'll just light up and alert me to be like,

408
00:19:23,700 --> 00:19:28,160
"Hey, you didn't do this one thing."

409
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,720
It's an external alert light in order for you

410
00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:35,560
to remember that you're supposed to be doing something in a game.

411
00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,800
>> You want to give yourself a competitive advantage with hardware.

412
00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:39,960
>> Yeah, exactly.

413
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:41,800
A hardware advantage on here.

414
00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:42,720
>> Interesting.

415
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:44,480
>> If I'm just scraping the screen,

416
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:49,640
looking for certain things and maybe... Do those games know to look for

417
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:55,680
screen scraping, anti-cheat software triggering stuff? That is a great

418
00:19:55,680 --> 00:20:00,400
question. Seems dangerous like you're gonna get banned. If you're just looking

419
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,400
externally to your screen on the pixels and it's not actually referencing

420
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:08,800
anything in the game, like I'm not going into the game's code to be like, "hey when

421
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:13,220
this certain trigger happens, light up that light." It's more of just, "this is on

422
00:20:13,220 --> 00:20:15,140
on the screen and you didn't notice it.

423
00:20:15,140 --> 00:20:17,660
So I'm going to flash an alert at you.

424
00:20:17,660 --> 00:20:18,820
- This is okay.

425
00:20:18,820 --> 00:20:19,660
This is so cool.

426
00:20:19,660 --> 00:20:21,780
This is like, I could see this being used

427
00:20:21,780 --> 00:20:23,460
for like any notification.

428
00:20:23,460 --> 00:20:25,100
- Yeah, it doesn't have to be used for games or whatnot.

429
00:20:25,100 --> 00:20:29,340
You just literally have a button slash light on your desk

430
00:20:29,340 --> 00:20:31,460
that connects instantly to whatever you want.

431
00:20:31,460 --> 00:20:33,820
- So like I have Slack notifications,

432
00:20:33,820 --> 00:20:35,620
message notifications,

433
00:20:35,620 --> 00:20:38,420
and I could have different light notifiers

434
00:20:38,420 --> 00:20:40,940
based on whatever it is, right?

435
00:20:40,940 --> 00:20:44,580
So orange lights, Slack, green lights, messages.

436
00:20:44,580 --> 00:20:46,980
I could do something like add lights,

437
00:20:46,980 --> 00:20:48,660
customize those lights.

438
00:20:48,660 --> 00:20:51,420
It's, I mean, basically, so whether it's gaming, right?

439
00:20:51,420 --> 00:20:54,800
So applying a gaming aspect to those lights,

440
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:57,340
it's just, yeah, notifications are annoying, right?

441
00:20:57,340 --> 00:20:58,300
So I'm guessing your game--

442
00:20:58,300 --> 00:20:59,420
- Let's add more.

443
00:20:59,420 --> 00:21:01,820
- Well, it's just separate the notification out

444
00:21:01,820 --> 00:21:06,560
to be more universal, effective, and minimalistic, right?

445
00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,880
It's like, you don't need the whole slide bar,

446
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:13,300
the Slack branding and all the information about it.

447
00:21:13,300 --> 00:21:16,780
I just wanna know, check my Slack in like a minute,

448
00:21:16,780 --> 00:21:19,220
my messages, my Facebook, whatever.

449
00:21:19,220 --> 00:21:22,280
And then you can flip, you can flip it to,

450
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,700
all right, I got, what does Apple have?

451
00:21:24,700 --> 00:21:26,940
They have a focus mode.

452
00:21:26,940 --> 00:21:29,900
You have work focus, you have play focus,

453
00:21:29,900 --> 00:21:32,100
you can have sleep focus, right?

454
00:21:32,100 --> 00:21:34,940
And you can apply and flip those profiles,

455
00:21:34,940 --> 00:21:37,420
game mode, work mode.

456
00:21:37,420 --> 00:21:39,820
Now you have Slack colors and you change those LEDs,

457
00:21:39,820 --> 00:21:41,460
LEDs are what multi-colored out, right?

458
00:21:41,460 --> 00:21:43,300
You just change those colors.

459
00:21:43,300 --> 00:21:44,380
- Crazy part about this.

460
00:21:44,380 --> 00:21:47,940
This is like RGB LEDs and button and plastic housing

461
00:21:47,940 --> 00:21:51,140
and USB cable all for like $2.

462
00:21:51,140 --> 00:21:51,980
- Wow.

463
00:21:51,980 --> 00:21:54,220
- You could easily, it's so much hardware

464
00:21:54,220 --> 00:21:55,540
for so cheap on this.

465
00:21:55,540 --> 00:21:58,420
And they're using it to open URLs.

466
00:21:58,420 --> 00:21:59,660
There's so many potentials on this.

467
00:21:59,660 --> 00:22:02,080
Your Slack notification one, like it'll light up

468
00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:04,100
and be like, you have a Slack message or something.

469
00:22:04,100 --> 00:22:06,740
And then you could press the button and it opens it up.

470
00:22:06,740 --> 00:22:07,580
- Slap it.

471
00:22:07,580 --> 00:22:12,180
It's a stream deck distilled down to like the most core,

472
00:22:12,180 --> 00:22:14,380
minimal interface that you can, right?

473
00:22:14,380 --> 00:22:15,780
- One input, one output.

474
00:22:15,780 --> 00:22:16,900
- Yeah.

475
00:22:16,900 --> 00:22:17,900
- Well, I guess it's RGB.

476
00:22:17,900 --> 00:22:19,500
You get as many outputs as you want.

477
00:22:19,500 --> 00:22:21,500
- Press this one, grandma, when it's flashing

478
00:22:21,500 --> 00:22:23,260
and that's how you get to your email.

479
00:22:23,260 --> 00:22:25,260
- Oh, that's good.

480
00:22:25,260 --> 00:22:26,740
Grandma, when this is flashing,

481
00:22:26,740 --> 00:22:27,940
if when you press the button,

482
00:22:27,940 --> 00:22:31,900
it'll open up a Facebook call with me or something.

483
00:22:31,900 --> 00:22:34,940
- So like, okay, is this like, so what if, okay,

484
00:22:34,940 --> 00:22:37,460
somebody rings my doorbell and I hear it

485
00:22:37,460 --> 00:22:39,260
and you know what, I know who's coming over.

486
00:22:39,260 --> 00:22:43,040
I can slap this button, boom, unlocks my door.

487
00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,000
Like this is applied to anything, right?

488
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,700
Like Color Elite, I'm just thinking like easy,

489
00:22:47,700 --> 00:22:48,740
you know, the easy button,

490
00:22:48,740 --> 00:22:53,640
but make anything I think of easier, right?

491
00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,980
- The hardware is done, it's just code at this point.

492
00:22:55,980 --> 00:22:57,340
Random code changes

493
00:22:57,340 --> 00:22:59,300
and you can make any application out of it.

494
00:22:59,300 --> 00:23:00,620
- Open it up into an app store.

495
00:23:00,620 --> 00:23:03,740
You got third party application people just like,

496
00:23:03,740 --> 00:23:06,680
all right, Yale Smart Lock button,

497
00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:08,480
add it to your button, done.

498
00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:09,840
Plug unplug, right?

499
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:11,800
You just plug it into your dock,

500
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:13,760
assign the app, throw it on the wall.

501
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,800
- And then you have a recurring revenue thing

502
00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,640
because you're, you know, selling a subscription

503
00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:21,160
for a dollar a month or whatever.

504
00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:22,160
Yeah, totally.

505
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:23,000
- Whoa.

506
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:24,400
- Dude, okay.

507
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,600
I bought these dumb ass, sorry.

508
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:30,920
I bought these buttons for my dog to talk, right?

509
00:23:30,920 --> 00:23:32,640
- Oh yeah, I've seen those.

510
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:33,640
They look just like it.

511
00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:34,880
- If you can apply,

512
00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,720
Like those buttons are like 20 bucks.

513
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:37,120
I don't know.

514
00:23:37,120 --> 00:23:38,480
They're insanely expensive.

515
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:40,240
Five bucks a pop, a pop, right?

516
00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:44,180
And they're small and they just press the button and it's like, here's the word.

517
00:23:44,180 --> 00:23:49,080
You could, it's just like, all right, now I'm like thinking in button world right

518
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,920
now, everything's a button and I'm seeing it with your ideas, like making

519
00:23:52,920 --> 00:23:54,200
me think of everything as a button.

520
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:58,280
Why isn't, why isn't my light switch a button, right?

521
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:02,040
Why can't I press a button next to my nightstand to turn off the lights in my

522
00:24:02,040 --> 00:24:06,760
house or activate a Google Home script or Alexa script to do all of these

523
00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:07,320
things.

524
00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:09,280
It's okay.

525
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:14,080
I think it starts getting really complex when you like, okay, well, next thing

526
00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,320
we're going to make it wireless.

527
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,960
And, but if you make it wireless and you come into all these other hurdles of how

528
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:20,600
do I set up my button or

529
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:24,040
is this like NFC tags though?

530
00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:26,280
How close are we to NFC tags?

531
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,760
This being, well, I guess no, it's not going to notify.

532
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,200
I think that's the special element.

533
00:24:31,320 --> 00:24:37,160
It's like NFC tags plus that Google project. What was that called? Hold on. Little signals. Do you

534
00:24:37,160 --> 00:24:40,760
guys remember Google's little signals, the experiment from last year? They talked about

535
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:45,080
an experiment that they did where there were these six different devices that would sit around your

536
00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:54,360
house and they have very calm, like blend in with the environment, understated designs,

537
00:24:54,360 --> 00:24:58,280
fabric and like matte plastic and stuff. And they were supposed to just sort of sit in the

538
00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:00,720
background, but then very subtly changed.

539
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:04,800
Like this one gently blows air on the plants to remind you that you need to

540
00:25:04,800 --> 00:25:05,640
water them.

541
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:10,680
Or this one has a really small like thing that raises up like the flag on a,

542
00:25:10,680 --> 00:25:15,120
a mailbox to just remind you that you have to take out the trash this Tuesday

543
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:17,000
or whatever it was supposed to just sort of the little,

544
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:21,880
little subtle in the background notification, the type stuff you want to do that,

545
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:23,680
but also have it be like,

546
00:25:23,680 --> 00:25:28,000
I walk up to it and I hit the button and I respond to this. I dismiss it.

547
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:30,800
I'm down in action on the thing you're trying to tell me.

548
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,000
I love that.

549
00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:33,500
Oh man, it was.

550
00:25:33,500 --> 00:25:40,100
I feel like there's a something with physical notifications.

551
00:25:40,100 --> 00:25:43,900
Yeah, and I think if I think it's got to maybe be beyond

552
00:25:43,900 --> 00:25:46,100
the plastic button and light.

553
00:25:46,100 --> 00:25:47,700
I kind of like that.

554
00:25:47,700 --> 00:25:51,900
Like maybe there's something else like action, action buttons

555
00:25:51,900 --> 00:25:52,500
or something.

556
00:25:52,500 --> 00:25:54,000
And I know Amazon did this.

557
00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:57,100
I know, but there's there's something to it.

558
00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:58,720
And I think people are.

559
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,120
Yeah, I think I think now is more.

560
00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:04,400
I just more like this one because the hardware is so cheap.

561
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:08,860
And as long as you keep the hardware cheap and you don't expand into other things,

562
00:26:08,860 --> 00:26:13,760
you have a huge margin, very simple to get into product idea.

563
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:16,620
And it sounds like you have a niche in mind, a need that you've already

564
00:26:16,620 --> 00:26:17,620
identified in your own life.

565
00:26:17,620 --> 00:26:21,760
I've got one niche on here that would be good for probably just me in the world.

566
00:26:21,760 --> 00:26:26,260
But there's there's so many other little applications now that everyone,

567
00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:28,560
more and more people are starting to work from home.

568
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,720
Like you could have something on your desk

569
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,280
that you actually have access to every day.

570
00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:36,040
- Dude, I kid you not, like the buttons for like Slack

571
00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:39,840
or Zoom or whatever, like just the quick, quick change.

572
00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:41,600
Like that would be fire.

573
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:43,080
I would buy that up.

574
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,160
- Yeah, I think that's why Streamdecks

575
00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,200
kind of took off in the pandemic.

576
00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,320
People have their, you know, join, call, end call,

577
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,800
mute buttons all as a separate standalone

578
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,160
dedicated piece of hardware.

579
00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:57,160
So it's a write-off is what you're saying.

580
00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:58,360
Yes, exactly.

581
00:26:58,360 --> 00:27:01,480
We got to sell this directly to Fortune 500 companies.

582
00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:05,560
Every new employee at Best Buy gets a button for their,

583
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:10,040
every time they make a sale and it starts flashing at them when they

584
00:27:10,040 --> 00:27:14,280
haven't done their janitorial rounds this hour.

585
00:27:14,280 --> 00:27:24,840
All right, Russell, give me a thing that you often need quick.

586
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,120
Ziploc bags.

587
00:27:26,120 --> 00:27:32,880
Oh boy, this is a narrow niche. Scott, tell me about your pitch for Uber for Ziploc bags.

588
00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:39,160
Why should I invest in your new startup?

589
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:40,040
Oh God.

590
00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:40,920
Uber for Ziploc.

591
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:42,720
Oh, frick.

592
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:50,480
Got it. Okay, this is – okay, you have a truck, like the ice cream truck. Okay,

593
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:55,480
It has everything that you would see at a gas station,

594
00:27:55,480 --> 00:27:58,640
or a grocery store that you need.

595
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,880
Cup of sugar, cup of flour, stick of butter,

596
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:07,260
Ziploc bags, tin foil, propane, all that shit.

597
00:28:07,260 --> 00:28:09,160
Just in the cup.

598
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:10,180
It's a--

599
00:28:10,180 --> 00:28:12,020
- Ice cream truck for adults.

600
00:28:12,020 --> 00:28:14,960
- Yes, 'cause adults need it the most.

601
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:16,680
- The adulting truck.

602
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:17,960
I'm so tired.

603
00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,120
- Oh my God, is that the ice cream truck for adults?

604
00:28:21,120 --> 00:28:22,760
- You can buy anything from diapers to weed

605
00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:24,660
and it just comes right to your house.

606
00:28:24,660 --> 00:28:26,920
(laughing)

607
00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:28,160
- The weed truck. - What music play?

608
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:29,600
- What music would-- - We're just doing a weed truck.

609
00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:30,440
That's all this is gonna end up being.

610
00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:31,920
- What's the adult truck play?

611
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:34,320
Why isn't there just a truck,

612
00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:37,160
like an Amazon truck filled with necessities?

613
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:39,880
- You're taking your trash out and there it is,

614
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:41,440
the truck, you didn't even ask for it.

615
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,920
It's driving by and it has that thing that you know,

616
00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:45,840
I didn't go and get AA batteries.

617
00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:47,880
I don't wanna do just one trip for door to door

618
00:28:47,880 --> 00:28:49,220
for double A batteries.

619
00:28:49,220 --> 00:28:52,680
There he is right there, like an angel sent from above.

620
00:28:52,680 --> 00:28:55,480
- The things you need, truck.

621
00:28:55,480 --> 00:28:57,400
- Thank you for listening.
