All right, there's this amazing book called Getting Everything You Can Out of All You've Got. I read it a few years ago and it changed my life.
And the reason I loved it was because it basically talks about how to get and make more money using things that you already have.
Coincidentally, today's podcast is brought to you by Business Made Simple. It's a podcast by Donald Miller, who I'm gonna tell you about in a second, but he has this amazing episode that's all related to this book and the things that I learned in this book. It's called How to Make Money with What You Already Have. It's an incredible episode. Talks about all the stuff that I learned in this book. The host is Donald Miller. I didn't know who Donald Miller was up until recently, but over the last 12 months, this is totally by coincidence. It was all separate people. They said you have to check out Donald Miller. He's amazing. So I'm happy that he's part of HubSpot's Podcast Network. You can check it out, Business Made Simple Podcast. It's where he coaches you on how to build your business like an airplane, where the cockpit is your leadership, the body is your overhead, the right engine is your marketing, the left engine is your sales.
You have to check it out. This guy's amazing. It's called Business Made Simple with Donald Miller.

So we're going to talk about what you guys can expect in today's episode, but before we do, so My First Million, and we actually just went from 80th in our category on the iTunes Store, which is a big deal to us, to like number 14 And one of the reasons why we did it was because you folks who are listening have clicked the Subscribe button. So if you're using iTunes or using an Apple product, can you please do me a favor?
I want you to go and click Subscribe. So go to our My First Million page and click that Subscribe button. And then we have this email address, MFM, so My First Million, MFM at the hustle.co.
Send a screenshot of you subscribed and we're going to do a call out of you on the podcast. So say like your name and then show me that you subscribe, send it to MFM, a screenshot, and we're going to give a call out. And actually, we're going to give a call out at the end of this episode for all the people that did that previously. And now let's hear what we're going to talk about in this episode. Go ahead, Shaan.

**Shaan Puri** (2:13)
Yeah, we got a bunch of topics I'm excited about. We talked about creating Barstool sports for the tech industry. We talked about internal company podcasting platforms like Spokin.
We went on a crazy detour for crime walks, Manhood as a Service, Rent a Chicken.
We got a bunch of good topics in this week's, in today's episode. This was probably, if you like ideas, I would say you're gonna love this episode. Sometimes we're a little bit light on ideas. We were super heavy on ideas today. So I think you guys will love it.

**Sam Parr** (2:44)
Great. See you in the episode.
So we just were talking for a few minutes about the podcast updates. And what we're doing to make it grow. But what I was about to tell you, Shaan is I have this doc that I'm gonna send to you. And so, have you seen how, I don't know if you've seen this or not, but the podcast goes in the email, I think every day now.

**Shaan Puri** (3:05)
Oh, I have not seen that, yeah.

**Sam Parr** (3:06)
And I'm the one writing it. And so I have a, we set this up. So it's gonna, you're gonna see the clicks in this document that I sent you every day.
But anyway, it's going well today. Did you see that graph I sent you?

**Shaan Puri** (3:18)
I tweeted it out. I was like, this is what I'm talking about.
There's a, basically you sent a graph of the iTunes rankings for us, business, for the business category, I would guess. Pretty big category. And we usually hovered between 80 and a hundred. Like we were number 80, number a hundred, I guess like that was kind of like our norm.
And then Sam takes over growth and like, boom, step change. We're up to, we're now ranked number 20 for the last, I don't know, week or two.
