We Bet This App Idea Could Be Bigger Than Reddit

Sam, I want to start with an idea today. I have an idea that I genuinely believe is going to be big if somebody does it.
I've tried to convince one of my smartest friends to do this, but they're already a little too rich and too happy to go try something new. So I am putting this out there to the universe. If anybody does this, more power to you.
The funny thing about this idea is that it started off on one of our Drunk Idea episodes, which we do from time to time where we take like, I don't know, half-baked ideas, kind of bad ideas, but maybe there's a nugget in there that's interesting. And we call it Drunk Ideas, where we both get a little tipsy. We would pretend to be at least, and we would pitch each other ideas.

What was the drunk idea?

Is that the Facebook group?

**Sam Parr** (0:52)
It's the Facebook group.

**Shaan Puri** (0:53)
I joined it. I love it. Are you in it? Yes, I love it.

**Sam Parr** (0:57)
They didn't accept my request. Oh man, I'm sitting here pending still.

So here's an example.
Yesterday, there was this woman who wasn't that pretty, and she was like 23 years old, and she was like, can I or should I get Botox now? Will I look prettier? And she posted her face. And there was all these very positive, not necessarily positive, like you do or do not need it, but we're not gonna make fun of you, but here's the pros and cons.

The premise of this, just to back up a second, there was a Instagram influencer, I think her name is Amber Lancaster.
And Amber Lancaster is a Instagram mom.
She's got a million followers or whatever. And she had created this group. And I think she kind of created it, but she's very hands-off with it. It's not like a very calculated thing that she did. And so the group is called Better Than Google. And the premise is inside this group is like 17,000, kind of like millennial moms, like moms, like her audience, people who, because I was asking my wife, I was like, what is the group? And she's like, well, it's just a bunch of moms who are like, we're all kind of like in our thirties. We all wanna have a good life, be a good mom, be a good spouse, watch good TV shows, be healthy. Like we just have like a certain set of things. We're just trying to have a certain quality of life.
And in doing so, if you put a bunch of those moms together, then they can really help each other out. It's better than Google. If you ask a question here, you're gonna get better than Google type of answers.
All right, let's take a quick break.

Here's an example question.
Has anyone found an effective way to get rid of cellulite? I'm pretty petite and I work out daily, but my leg still has cellulite. And it has 30 comments of people discussing how they did or didn't get rid of cellulite.

100%. It's like a media company. It's got juicy content, just like click-worthy content, but there's no editors, there's no writers. This is just people's real lives. So a woman went on there and she was saying, my husband was cheating on me. I found out, I confronted him about it. He got really defensive and I want to file for divorce. But then over the last few days, I noticed he knew, he like referenced things that were in my private messages, like my messages to other people. Like how is he reading my iMessage?
