Hey, before we start the show, you know, we talk a lot about hustle here on how I built this, and recently I spoke to the music producer Diplo, who told me about starting out as a DJ in Philadelphia. He was obsessed with turntable culture, and to afford the equipment, he worked at a lot of different jobs, like at Subway and even at the zoo. Now he's DJing massive music festivals around the world and producing with artists like Justin Bieber. Check out my conversation with Diplo on my other podcast, The Great Creators. Just search for The Great Creators with Guy Raz wherever you listen to podcasts or go to thegreatcreators.com. And now on to today's show. because I was a one-man show, I was the customer service guy. So anyone that would call me, they would ask me a question, I would answer very thoroughly, give them a wonderful answer, and they would ask me, you know, what's your name? And I would say, Andrew.

And they would say, Okay, well thank you so much, Andrew, but are you You're not the Andrew on the back of the package, are you? And I would say Yes, I I am, actually. And you know, many people thought that was great.

But others didn't think it was that great because you're not a big company anymore. Right? Are you you know th are you running this from your you know, garage? Yes, you were. And the truth is I was.
