"Have to say that I'm sitting here with an old friend. It's hard to believe how long it's been. I'm sitting here with James Howard kunstler, who lets me call him Jimbo. Jimbo or Jim, you and I have not been in the same room since probably Christmas 91. Well, we veered into very different kind of intellectual trenches. And digging ourselves deeper into them. So we can't see over the top. But it's still crazy to me because I mean, you've been on the program before by a Skype or whatever. But I met you when I was at yaddo in 1986. Yeah, originally, with Alan shoes, I think Alan, we were watching the 1986 World Series at my house. That's right. A tragic death series. That's exactly right. It wasn't tragic for mets fans. Right, not for them. But I was born in Queens a mile from Shea stadium. So it was not tragic for me. But the point is, that was 1986. I was 23. And I was at yaddo, which was a huge deal for me because obviously I want to be a literary writer and I got to go to yaddle where Cheever was so it meant so much to me. But I met this guy named Alan chews. And Alan says, now, how do you describe him? Alan Woods? Well, he was a big kind of bear of a guy. He was a book critic and a professor. And he had an NPR bookshelf. And he was a sweet fellow. Oh, yeah, very sweet. And he was very kind to me because he said, hey, you want to come with me? I know somebody who lives near here a writer named Jim kunstler. And so he drags me along the 23 year old version of me along with him to meet you. And I instantly loved you and started reading your books. That's totally true. I got a funny auto story for you though. I never went to the place as a guest because there was no point to it. I lived in Saratoga Springs where the place was. And I had no problem working at home. So there was no point in me moving a mile and a half down the road to an arts colony. But I did fill in for a friend of mine as the chef during the winter season when she went on vacation. And they had a much reduced number of that's when I was there. I was expecting to go to the fall. I was expecting to go to the big House, but they said, no, no, no, we're just doing, this is the winter season. So there was only about, I don't know, 18 people or 16 people, at the time, and so you actually cooked for those artists. Yeah, and we can get kind of dismal there at that time of year, especially if you have a bad crew of artists. Cranky bunch of antisocial people. So the some of the writers used to come in late in the afternoon when the sun was going down in November, December. To talk to me. And I got a note in my employee box that said, don't consort with the guests. You're the riff raff. Keep away. But the ironic thing was, I had published more books at that time than most of the people who were coming in to talk.

Two thousand twenty two fashion show at got them all on september seventh and the guest list was just tremendous for our purposes. We had aquaria. Slater lil kim leah. Mcsweeney cristiano obviously alicia silverstone. Kristen china with busy phillips christine. Quinn an katyal. I think the people that you didn't identify leila's arc of the The mis shapes aka very much n. y. u. Two thousand seventeen. Nope very nyu two thousand and seven and cocoa roca. I think is the model who is on. Leila's arc's left anyways based group shots. I say when they added katie holmes and the megs katie. holmes wasn't available for the group shot. She was just sitting in the front row. Right key homes sandwiched between chris. Chenowitz at he silverstone was a real moment. It is really strange. Because i kind of forgot that they were still doing the that it was like everything was legit. Yeah still did. Surprise me that it was like. Oh no these were. This was real fashion. It was real. They were indoors they were doing a real show. It's real. No one had masks on. I was like oh everything that happened. This weekend was also. Don't i mean okay. We didn't get a lot of video from fashion weeks. We don't really know but like these were all photo. So maybe mascot taken off but you're right when they're all sitting there waiting. Nobody's wearing masks. Because they're getting photographed for right leg could have been taken in two thousand nineteen. If phelps street felt all very normal is what you're saying because you really see evidence of there being kind of anything but just like the standard. Here's what it is. They're they are. This is very bizarre. We're not going to try to explain it. Which is very typical fashion. We reteach selection of headlines. At just kinda give gives you an overview of who was there and who was featured. I think it's a nice kind of kind of fly through these right okay.

Dario and tommy dorfman lead the stars to coaches front row during new york fashion week. Halley steinfield evan. Mock and chase hudson. Hit up. Tom brown new york fashion week. Show any i mean. I know who these people are. But at the vaguely vaguely vacant haired to this photo that i'm making fun of where it's like. Katie holmes alicia silverstone busy phillips aquaria and kristen chenowitz. That's ridiculous like every preceding headline is even more ridiculous than that front row photo. I just love 'em hof enjoys. Echoes like in l. M. hav with rosalia choice of why was the rosalia. Vme's okay. i'm just like if anyone is involved with music. And is in new york. They should be at the vm. As fuck. it's a little strange all right. That's the vm. As anything else. Oh well okay. Well first of all your favorite night of the well have the year happen. It's crazy. 'cause new york was popping this week right like we argue. Everybody was in town but the rule events drew thrown away. To real heads did not come to new york in an la. You know why they said fuck new york fashion week. Fuck as fuck the met gala. I cannot miss universal studios halloween horror nights event. Okay it is a real look. It is a real. I don't know. I said event at the end. The event is not part of the name of the event. It's just. That's the the halloween horror nights at universal studios. They like put up a whole thing. It's a big to do. Celebs goats huge. Celebs love to be spooky. They love to go to this thing. I don't know why it's in september we could not hold it to lock tober. It's in la. Your weather doesn't change much. Will i usually leave it up for like two months to get the most pro. So this is just spooky season just started. I know so this. Is you know what that was an idiot. You're right so this is just the opening of it and it has to be now because the event has to be now because it's open. Yeah wow okay. That's funny because the list of people who were this event where people who weren't except for one person who wasn't at the who wasn't in new york.

Haley orient oronte the acts kayla worthy and longtime love celestia. Estes were at the event alongside with chuck.

I mean you're right compared to everything that was going on in new york. It really is not to call it the dregs. But it's like these people didn't get invited anywhere else and we know that if you go to the halloween horror nights opening night. You're the type of person who goes to anything you get invited to. Its reason that they didn't get invited to the stuff. That travis barker who did get invited the stuff in new york and didn't up your ease. The headliner quote unquote of the press around this event. Also not not to be crazy. I wouldn't be surprised if doesn't travis barker have kids. Yeah he writes kids. We could've brought us kids different a lot of the stuff. It's like a family thing too. I mean i'm just saying if you want some photos of jessie j acting scared in front of a step and repeat this. Is your event when you first put this photo in here. I was like when i texted.

Thorpe didn't have money when he learned about card counting. You went to wealthy guys to back him in this case but went to thorp thorp with with two tracks because he was now quite wealthy at this point and you know they were betting horses together Anyway so through the course of history he. Ziemba did work for bill bender and alan woods and You know other horse racing guys anyway. It's a really fascinating podcast. So yeah it's called risk of ruin in. It's the latest episode with richard ziemba. Zuma was one of the early guys that i read. When i was coming up and starting to learn and he did a lottery. Book in his lottery. Book was was credible. He didn't make any outlandish statements about you can beat it in. Its to this day. I still think one of the best lottery books you can read.

"Exercise is a brew happening today. Which will be our first batch packaged in an updated label. It's going to be a lot sharper on south. And as we started to learn you know other stakeholders and and what's important for the business we're able to pivot learn and now come out with kind of weber's into that. Were even more excited about them. Version one so. It's all about that that iterative kind of continuous learning for sure. If great to have a plan but as soon as you you hit the ground running the plan pretty much goes out the window and like you say you got a pivot. You gotta adapt You just gotta make some make work sometimes. Yeah looking back. You've already touched on a couple of things problems that you encountered looking back now. Is there anything you would have wished that you'd known when you started out and that maybe would have caused you to do things a little bit differently. Yeah i mean. I think it's a double edged sword. Certainly there'd be some things that we would be armed with knowledge. Were armed with now to help us make decisions in the early days but there's also a lot of things that would probably scare me off from the diving in on the first lady's so i like robin what you said about a little bit of night a day sometimes sometimes is the saving grace and in kind of pursuing dream building a new brand so for me. I don't know that. I would wish i knew any of this. You know it's it's exciting. Learning and overcoming these challenges as they come up the more knowledge you can have in the early days the better my advice other people listening that are interested in starting their own brand. Just start small start in the evenings after work and just start slowly putting things into place and also found that like other entrepreneurs were really gracious with their time advice and input on the project so the opportunity there for anyone out there.
