**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Hello, friends, welcome back to the show. My guest today is Jeremy Boreing. He's the co-founder and CEO of the Daily wire. Independent media is having a moment. YouTube numbers dominate mainstream TV and podcasts wipe the floor with radio. But is it possible for movies, children's programming and more to tumble next? Expect to learn what it's like to work with Ben shapiro, where Disney keeps going wrong, the problems with modern day conservatives, whether Jeremy will hire Douglas Murray, why children's TV shows are so important to get right, the dangers of audience capture and much more. Look, we're nearly at Christmas, you probably need to get somebody a present and that person who continues to use their old face shaver for trimming their gentleman's area is the prime target for the Manscaped Lawnmower 5 Ultra. It's their fifth generation trimmer, which features standard trimming blade for taking a little off the top and a new foil blade to go for that smooth finish wherever your heart desires. It's also got dual LED spotlights so that you can trim in the dark perhaps, or if you're a particularly crevicey person and it is waterproof, so you can use it in the shower. So if you're going to get someone a present for Christmas, this would be a fantastic option. And it's also a little bit of a hint, you know, maybe you're a bit hairier than you should be. Here's a gift. Come on, get a trim. You can get 20% off and free shipping right now by going to manscaped.com/modernwisdom and using the code modern wisdom at checkout.

It is an absolute game changer. Austin gets very hot in the summer and very cold in the winter. And the pod cover has basically saved my life and stopped me from fighting with my own temperature. The pod cover fits over the top of any bed like a fitted sheet and allows you and your partner to cool or warm your side of the bed throughout your sleep stages. It is phenomenal. I can't sing the praises of it enough and I use it, I literally use it every single night. It's probably the product I'm using more than anything else based on the fact that I lie on it for eight hours every single day. If you're not happy with your pod cover for any reason, within 90 days, eight sleep will refund you fully. Head to eightsleep.com/modernwisdom to save 150 bucks on the pod cover.

What do you say when people ask you what you do?

**Jeremy Boreing** (3:56)
I say that I am just a lowly shampoo, razor and chocolate mogul. I've only been saying that for about a week, though.

**Chris Williamson** (4:05)
Yeah, that's a new industry for you.

**Jeremy Boreing** (4:08)
What... It is a terrifying question when people ask you what you do when you're an entrepreneur, because you never quite know what to lead with, and whatever you lead with will be the box that people put you in. So, I try never to answer the question very honestly. When I was a teenager, I was the first person I knew with a cell phone, other than, you know, bankers who I didn't know. But I was an early adopter of the flip phone, and my first voicemail, I was probably 17, and I said, Jeremy Boreing, writer, producer and shameless self-promoter.
