All right, everyone, we have a quick ad for HubSpot. But I want to let you know, I actually use HubSpot and I use their sales tool, which is what this ad is for. HubSpot sales platform, it makes it just easier to sell stuff, to do it faster, to look at your pipeline, to see what sales are gonna happen. Just prospect to cold outreach and get more customers faster and easier. Plus, it's easy to learn and free to start. So you guys can check it out, hubspot.com/sales.

All right, we're here, Sam. Nope, that's not Sam. That's Stu.

**Shaan Puri** (0:39)
Wow.

**Shaan Puri** (0:40)
Tell the people, who is Stu?

**Stu Iverson** (0:41)
Stu is a friend of the Hustle.
I actually met Sam through a mutual mentor, Chris Redlitz. Shout out Chris Redlitz, Last Mile and Transmedia Capital.

**Shaan Puri** (0:51)
And you work out of here.

**Stu Iverson** (0:52)
I do work out of here. It's incredible, man. I was working out of home, and so was my partner. And for the people that know me, I'm on the phone about 12 hours a day.
Most of my things are just brokering deals, and she kicked me out.

**Shaan Puri** (1:04)
Right.

**Stu Iverson** (1:04)
So here I am, Sam took in one of the refugees like you guys talked about last time. That's me.

**Shaan Puri** (1:08)
Yeah, and we, after the last episode, you were listening in, and normally after every episode, we're like, yo, how was it? To the people that were kind of in the room. And it's usually like, good, yeah, I liked it.
And you were like, it was good, but here's three things I think you guys could do better. And I was like, nice, who's this guy?

**Stu Iverson** (1:23)
No one likes a yes man.

**Shaan Puri** (1:25)
Yeah, no one likes a yes man, especially if you're trying to make something great. You always wanna, nobody also likes a hater. So you need an honest person, you know?

**Stu Iverson** (1:31)
100%.

**Shaan Puri** (1:32)
And so you were honest, I liked that. And then we started talking about, I don't know how, we started talking about ideas. We just bumped into each other, started immediately jamming on some ideas.
And I was like, hold on, this should have been recorded. Come by next week, let's do this. And also-

**Stu Iverson** (1:44)
Here I am with Sam gone. And we gotta say, he's with the Gary V podcast and you're stuck with me. So I don't know who's winning on that one.

**Shaan Puri** (1:50)
I'm winning, dude, I'm winning. I'm not trying to be on one of those Instagram posts where it starts out with his signature on the screen, his autograph to start.

**Stu Iverson** (1:59)
I will say this office now compared to last week, we gotta say, Henry put in a ton of work. This office looks 1,000 times better than Gary V's podcast office.

**Shaan Puri** (2:07)
Henry, do you have a Twitter handle?
Henry Billings Five, give him a shout for it. Turn in the studio.

**Stu Iverson** (2:13)
This is incredible. For everyone that's just listening at home, what the studio used to look like is if...

**Shaan Puri** (2:17)
Close your eyes and imagine.

**Stu Iverson** (2:19)
Two wealthy guys went on Amazon and they searched by highest price for comfortable chair and they bought it and they found...

**Shaan Puri** (2:25)
Bright red chair.

**Stu Iverson** (2:26)
And they found a broom closet and put it in there with some of their books. And now it looks like a legitimate...

**Shaan Puri** (2:32)
Studio now.

**Stu Iverson** (2:32)
Studio.

**Shaan Puri** (2:33)
Yeah, there's like the soundproofing shit on the walls, there's posters behind us. There's like a very prestigious looking book that just says Sam behind us. And his glasses. It's like he died and we have a tribute here.

**Stu Iverson** (2:44)
Shouts out to Sam, come back safe.

**Shaan Puri** (2:46)
So Sam did the Gary Vee Podcast and he did Pomp's podcast. If you don't know Pomp, you're not in the crypto world, this guy who's always talking about Bitcoin.
So Sam's on tour right now doing a couple other things. They did a meetup of listeners and trend subscribers in New York. I saw it, it was awesome, they're popping off.

**Stu Iverson** (3:03)
Did you see the feedback from that?

**Shaan Puri** (3:04)
I saw the feedback. More importantly, I saw the videos, like, yo, this is some nice Airbnb, like, you guys went all out for this.

**Stu Iverson** (3:09)
Yeah, helping to the business around here.

**Shaan Puri** (3:10)
Yeah, exactly. Oh, we're spending now, okay, we're spending.
