**Shaan Puri** (0:00)
Oh, really? Yeah.
We are here. It is, I don't know what the name we're gonna choose for this, but right now it's called Million Dollar Brainstorm.

**Sam Parr** (0:11)
I had people tweet at me using that name.

**Shaan Puri** (0:14)
That name, okay, good. I think the expectations are a little high. I want these to be ideas that may or may not be million dollar ideas, but we're back. We got good feedback last week, so we said, let's do it again.
The idea with this is every Friday morning, me and Sam get together, and instead of getting breakfast, we shoot the shit on different ideas, different trends, different businesses that are cooking in your brain.

**Sam Parr** (0:35)
You and I have access to a lot of people that, quote, normal people don't have access to, just because we... Let's just use the stories that we're hearing, and we can put two and two together and tell everyone else who doesn't have the same access.

**Shaan Puri** (0:48)
Yeah, before this one, I was asking for permission from a bunch of people. I was like, hey, can I talk about that idea you said, or this week I'm not going to do those, but by next week hopefully I have...

**Sam Parr** (0:55)
But we have friends who run or own multi-billion dollar companies or companies that have sold for...

**Shaan Puri** (1:01)
No big deal.

**Sam Parr** (1:02)
Yeah, like these huge... They're either friends or acquaintances, enough that we are like, oh, I heard this guy is trying this thing.

**Shaan Puri** (1:08)
Those guys that I call friends and they half remember my name? Yeah.

**Sam Parr** (1:11)
Well, but we definitely have insider information that we can kind of share.

**Shaan Puri** (1:15)
Okay, so what is this box you just put on the desk?

**Sam Parr** (1:17)
Yeah, I just put a box on Shaan's desk. It's my sperm.
So last week, we talked about sperm banks. It's all clean. Okay, so you can open that box up. It's clean.
Everything's good. It's called Daddy.

**Shaan Puri** (1:29)
Is this real?

**Sam Parr** (1:31)
So take that white bit off. And then you can open the box.

**Shaan Puri** (1:34)
Oh, man, this is a total unboxing. This is great.

**Sam Parr** (1:37)
Okay. Open the box. Okay. Now, don't touch that.

**Shaan Puri** (1:41)
I reached the final boss.

**Sam Parr** (1:43)
Yeah. So I went and tried it. It's going to be $100 a year.

**Shaan Puri** (1:46)
$100 a year. This is a service called Daddy. D-A-D-I-S-E.

**Sam Parr** (1:50)
Yeah.

**Shaan Puri** (1:50)
And this looks good. This looks like an Apple product here. It looks like a pair of headphones or something. Yeah. And so inside is your sperm. And you're going to freeze this for how long?

**Sam Parr** (2:00)
I don't know yet. I just we talked about it last week, and I think it's a really good idea. So I'm going to try it.
So we'll see. I'll know maybe in two weeks.

**Shaan Puri** (2:08)
What did you see in there? Did you see a bunch of other people?
Were they all people of different ages? Like, did you notice anything else while you were there or?

**Sam Parr** (2:14)
Oh, no.

**Shaan Puri** (2:14)
Oh, they mailed this to you.

**Sam Parr** (2:15)
They just mailed it to me.

**Shaan Puri** (2:16)
Oh, okay. Even better.

**Sam Parr** (2:17)
Yeah. And I actually talked to loads of men who are my age or even younger, and a lot of them are doing it. So I think that this whole sperm bank thing is actually way bigger than I actually anticipated. I'm going to pay a hundred dollars a year for it. I went into it thinking to pay for 20 years. Right.

**Shaan Puri** (2:31)
Okay. Wow. All right. Awesome. So that's one. That's a follow up from last week, really.

**Sam Parr** (2:35)
Yeah. And I have one more follow up from last week. So we talked about looking at competitors. So there's this woman on Twitter. Her name is Jane Wong, but her handle is Wong M. Jane. So W-O-N-G-M-J-A-N-E.
All she does is she reverse engineers apps.

**Shaan Puri** (2:54)
Yes. She's like Facebook's kryptonite, right? She always finds the new Facebook features before Facebook rolls them out.

**Sam Parr** (3:00)
Yeah. She's great. So that's a good follow. My friend Patrick texted me and showed me that. And then another great tweet that I found, there was a study. I found it, I think, through Patrick and this guy named Cameron tweeted it out. So they did a study, I think tens of thousands of men. Most men above age 50 claim they felt masculine. Most men below age 35 said they do not feel masculine. And we were talking about TRT stuff. And I was like, I think this stuff's gonna get more popular. And I think that's one data point that shows that it might be bigger than we had said.
