A highlight from Rising Auto Theft Rates: Urban Consequences and Solutions
"Well, you see how easy this is now. Now you look at how they move money around and how the in your face money laundering folks, this is what this is. This is corruption and fraud. Some of the Bidens are great at the money laundering part. They got 20 shell corporations, but guess who's getting the guess who's going to be controlling the funding to rebuild Ukraine. We pay to destroy it. And guess what? The Hillary Clinton Foundation gets paid the rebuild Welcome right. to the podcast. We are in the same studio today, which is kind of nice. So thanks again for downloading. If you're just listening, if you're watching or watching the clips, uh, thanks for watching as well. And just for a quick mention, so I don't forget, if you haven't downloaded our app yet, I'm noticing we're getting a lot of downloads and the cool thing is when the morning Mike's program is going Monday, Wednesday, Friday, I'm the, seeing the view count go up and up and up, which is awesome. So I know we're only, you know, we're still in the dozens. I'd like to get into the hundreds and eventually thousands, um, but it's a cool program. If you haven't listened to it, it's a quick 15 minutes to quick by morning, run down three days a week of the top five topics, three minutes each. Do a great job. They do an awesome job when we're, when we fill in the stuff. We screw the whole thing up. Yes. Yeah. We, we blow the whole, the whole, uh, the schedule, but, um, but they do awesome and they're funny. I love it. It's a quick, you know, down and dirty 15 minutes, top five items of the day. And now you get your day started off on the, uh, they, you know, I think on the right foot, they were saying this week, like, Oh, it's so negative all the time, but I think they're hilarious. They take the negative stuff that's going on, but of course the negative stuff isn't the news. Yeah. Yeah. That's what we're seeing. I mean, carjackings again, Rochester had another, you know, record night. I mean, it's incredible how that was going on. And so it's amazing is, is like the Democrats just sit around and watch this happen in every city and every city. It's insane. Yeah. I sent you an article earlier this morning about Philadelphia. Let's see. I can find it. It's, uh, not that it's anything out of, you know, anything that we don't know about, but let's see here. Philadelphia swarmed by alleged juvenile. Come on, come on. Juvenile looters targeting the Apple store, Lulu lemon and footlocker. Yeah. So, cause they're starving. They're starving. They just, just need a little piece of ham and some Turkey. They need clothes and food. That's, that's only fair. I mean, they, you know, and once again, I know we've all heard this joke, but footlocker is not missing one pair of working boots. No, no, all the Nike's, all the Nike. Yeah. Well, some of those Nike's, I mean, Oh my God. Crazy. You know, talking about like, you know, thousands of dollars for a pair of, thousands, thousands of dollars. I was talking to my daughter and she said to one, one of her friends has a, as a pair of shoes were $1 ,200. I'll never forget the most expensive pair of shoes I ever bought. We were just starting a business. This was like 30 years ago now. Right. Crazy to think. And I remember somebody told me that maybe my dad was like, you got to have a decent pair of shoes. Right. And so I went up and I bought a pair of Justin and Murphy's. They're like 120 bucks at the time. Yeah. The most money I have ever spent on a pair of shoes. Now boots, I've spent more money on since because boots are more expensive, you know, hunting boots. Well, there's a purpose to them. I still don't spend more money on shoes. Like I'm wearing like Skechers or like $40. Like some of these Nike's $500. You can't tell me you're running faster. It's different when you're going to go out and buy a pair of like waders or something. You're going to use them. First of all, you're going to use them for the next 30 years. Right. And there's a purpose to them, right? Like, okay, they're more expensive, but I can walk through the water with them. Right. But if I bought like, if I had five, 600 hour pairs of shoes, I'd be afraid to leave the house. I wouldn't, I wouldn't get off the carpeting. Well, they're targeting the Apple store here, Glenn, because they'll buy jobs. And that's the only way to get a job is to make sure you've got an Apple iPhone. So it'll be like Chicago. We talked about this the other week with, with, uh, with Mike Speraza, Chicago is now forced to open or, or just talking about opening, you know, a, a government run grocery store in the inner city because they've all that. Well, they're going to, so they're going to, they're going to, the plan is to fight the communism with more kind of communism, right? That's going to work really well. But could you imagine how inefficient, first of all, Walmart's pulled out, Costco's pulled out, all the stores have pulled out because now target, have you heard targets now closing stores across the country? So target is now going through and discussing all the stores across the country, liberal target, liberal target. They put a black lives matter that they ripped down the smash of the window. I thought that'd be some sort of a shield or that we're just going to put up this, uh, this plywood and we're going to spray black lives matter on it. Hashtag hashtag BLM. And we'll be safe as they rip it out and use that same plywood to smash the window with. It's pathetic. There'll be nothing left in these inner cities. The problem is when it starts to spill over into the, into the, Oh yeah. This is, this is where it gets ugly. Well, they want it. That's what they want. That's, that's why people like, uh, the governor of New York, uh, you know, Kathy, the ice queen, Kathy Hochul is, is, you know, they first tried the push for section eight housing in the suburbs because that was only fair. Yeah. Now they couldn't get that through because the people in the suburbs are like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Now they're busing in illegal immigrants in the middle of the night. And I tell you something, if these Democrats like Mark Poland cars were proud of what they were doing, they would have a welcoming party at noon at noon, high noon. They'd have a press conference welcoming our newest community members off the bus so that the whole community could see these family units that are getting off. You got the husband, the wives, the two kids, you know, the things that we see in our country, right? No, it's not happening. They're bringing them in at two o 'clock in the morning. So nobody sees, they're all, they're all 23 year old males, right? Or 18 to 25 year old males. Some of which are from the Congo. I don't know about the, uh, you know, the, some of the social norms in the Congo, but I'm just thinking that maybe they're a little bit different than the Western world. I don't know. I'm just thinking maybe not. Maybe they're exactly like us. I don't know. But they're exactly like us. Why would they want to come here? Why are they aspiring to come here? I don't know. Anyway, it's a fentanyl fentanyl up again, by the way, there was another report. I think it was on a Fox news. Well, good for the Republicans. I mean, at least part of them, I should say good for the five or six Republicans that are the extreme right wing, according to the media, that's holding this garbage up. No, shut the government down, shut it down, shut it down until there's no more money. Take the money, go into Ukraine and send it to Texas, which they did right to the border, which they didn't do last time. Right. Kept it open. That's what do you need? What do you need? We're out of control. The founding fathers gave the power of the purse to Congress and the, and the Pentagon, the Pentagon goes, yeah, you know what? We're just going to exempt Ukraine funding from the budget. So ha ha. We just went over 33 trillion. If you go online and look at the clock, it's moving fast, right? So we're on our way to 34 or 35. Can you even see the numbers anymore? They just blur blur now. So, so fast. Oh no. And, and good news, by the way, we're refinancing this debt at 5 % now, not at 1 % or zero like we were doing. Yeah. It makes a lot of sense. Yeah. It'd be great. Yeah. The fence talk about keeping rates higher for longer. I don't know. They're not going to be able to do that. They'll be cutting interest rates by next year. Mark by where? And the number one reason I say that is because when you talk to every economist, I say, that's not going to happen. And they are typically wrong. So if you take the, it's like saying betting against the casino, it's like saying, you know what? I don't think MGM is going to make money in the sporting books next year. Ma, they're going to figure out a way to make money. They'll rechange the lines, right? Well, you, all you need to do is look at it and get a bunch of economists in a room and ask them where they think the market's going to be and then do just the opposite and you would be way better. Yeah. Pretty much that's usually the way to go. No doubt about it. So the, the, the, the Pelosi, we were talking earlier about the Pelosi stock trader. Yeah. You can follow online. Now, some of these folks, we did the game show game last week. We talked about the, uh, the net worth. I picked the poor ones too. They were like 23, 21, you know, $20 million. Some of these folks are amazing. I mean, really just, you know, the wizards of smart on some of these are just really, timing is impeccable up here. This is somebody who is selling some software that I'll track it, which you can, you, you've pointed out, you can get it for free online, but, but the, the numbers are really astonishing. This Democrat Senator sold her Aspen vacation home for $25 million. That was just after she sold her Lake Tahoe vacation house for $36 million. Well, by the way, why, why do they own these big $25, $36 million homes? Well, a big, big part of it is because the taxation of it, right? So a Feinstein who's telling you your ordinary income tax rates are too low. She's shifting that to a capital asset, which is going to create a capital gain in the future or no gain. Or no gain. I mean, they're 10, 10 31. This is why when Donald Trump looked at Hillary Clinton right in the eye and said, you will not get rid of the carry interest deduction and you know it because all of your, I use it, of course, all of her bigger donors donate money to Hillary Clinton. And this is exactly the truth, right? They will never get rid of some of these things. Like they talked about, we're going to get rid of the 10 31 exchanges. Yaha. Yeah. Uh huh. Yeah. So the big developer strokes a giant check to the, to the Democrats off the table. Let's listen to her success though. Amazing. A Senator sold her Aspen vacation home for $25 million just after she sold her Lake Tahoe vacation house for $36 million. Only two years earlier, Diane Feinstein has been a member of the political scene for 32 years and her salary is only $130 ,000 per 130 grand a year. Now it's more now. That's a little bit dated, but it's up, it's up to probably 180 now. But, but listen to this. First of all, if it was up to 580, you're not buying $23 million homes, $36 million homes. No, no, we're going to put in multiple homes. We're going to, we're going to put the Paul Pelosi onto our research committee. You make a million dollars a year. First of all, most of, most business owners that make that kind of money, they didn't make it throughout their whole life, right? They didn't start making a million dollars at 20 years old. They started making a million dollars at 50 years old and it took 30 years to get to that point. Right? So my point is, you're not at a million dollars a year at age 50. If you did it the right way, the hard way, and you did it yourself, you're still not affording a $23 million home, right? Multiple ones. Yeah. Multiple, multiple. Right. Those aren't even her primary residence. Those are her vacation homes. She lives in, she lives in California. Listen to this though. And it's, it's all of them. It's all of them now. This is a, this is from Nancy Pelosi, stock trader. Uh, this is a tweet, uh, a Twitter feed. You can follow Pelosi tracker is what it's supposed to track or underline or something like that. You'll find it. Anyway, uh, three weeks ago, sitting politician bet against the U S economy so far. He's been right. Tom Carper bought $45 ,000 of PSQ and inverse ETF on the tech sector on eight 23, August 23rd. Since then he's plus 3 % while the market is negative 4%. Go figure. Wow. Go figure. Man, these guys are so good. Yeah. And they're not by, they're, I mean, these are, that's some pretty technical strategy. You started getting into options strategies and stuff. I mean, yeah. Yeah. These guys have become very, very slick. It's not just about buying a, you see, it used to be, okay, I'm going to buy X, Y, Z. Then I'm going to vote for or against something. You know, I'm going to short the stock and then I'm going to vote against them for both that, that, that. So the stock goes down or I'm going to vote for something, knowing that it will benefit the company. The stock will go up and in a sense front running. No, they're, they're in the options strategies now. They're in the market. Yeah. They're doing butterfly spreads. Yeah. Crazy stuff going. They're very sophisticated. They shouldn't be allowed to two things. When you go into Congress, I, you know, I would love to have a Congress person run on or present around the following platform, right? Number one, term limits, term limits, top of the list. Number two, though, while you're in Congress for the eight years, or wherever we allow you to serve 10 years, 12 years, whatever it is, you could not invest in a stock market at all. All your investments are frozen or your choices, a model, some kind of a model liquidated go to cash, or you could buy the fidelity balance to counter. You could buy the, you could buy the T -rope price, you know, target retire, whatever, you know, or you go to goes into a blind something or other where you have no idea. Right. It just goes into what you picked a one through five tolerance for risk and somebody else invest. Maybe it's just broad indexing. Maybe that's it. Right. Something that doesn't allow this kind of garbage to go on where, you know, they buy, you know, Tesla stock and then approve a huge, you know, oh, we're going to, guess what? We're going to build a, you know, for government funded battery stations all the country. Of course, Elon comes out and goes, we already got those, you idiots. I did that like four years ago, you morons. Amazing what Elon can do and what the, what the government can. Going back to target for just a second, not to digress, but I found WGRZ, thankfully came up with a list of the, uh, the target stores that will be closing, Mike, the full list of locations all in, all in Republican run. You'll be shocked. Yeah. Yeah. Right in the, uh, the thriving, the, uh, you know, thriving, the Minneapolis, uh, location, the retailer said the decision, the close was really difficult. I wonder if that was after half. That was the one they put the BLM on. Yeah. Oh, that was the one they put the sign on that said, please don't burn our store down. We love you. I hashtag BLM lit it on fire. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Uh, let's see. I'm shocked though. I wouldn't, I'm surprised you wouldn't stay. I mean, you know, like just collecting, you love them. You love, you support them. This is what you supported. Remember you, you, you raised money, you gave money. Yeah. And guess what they did with that money. They agitators hired to whip up people in the community to smash and burn down your store. You idiots. So there you go. There you go. Nice, nice work. What else do you think, Mike? Uh, New York city's East Harlem neighborhood. That's going to be one that's goes down. I wonder why. Chicago, San Francisco for sure. San Fran. Yeah. San Fran. Uh, by the way, before I forget San Fran, Democrat San Francisco mayor, announces plan to require drug testing, which is good in an effort to, if you're going to receive homeless benefits. Right. But the funny thing was in this same passage, they're going to Texas to try to recruit police officers. The funny thing is is that the people they sent from San Francisco to try to recruit people. They didn't come back. They defected like North Koreans. Some of them got jobs. They get over the wall. They come out, they get over the wall. It was hilarious. No, they didn't go back. Well, the other five stores, Mike, three in Portland, Oregon and two in Seattle, five, three in Portland. They're pulling out of Portland together. All of these inner cities folks will be food deserts. You're going to hear that term. It'll be business deserts. It'll be nothing. Well, business deserts, nothing left, but there'll be, but target, don't forget target. Does target sell food? Yeah. Well, yeah. They sell food. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. Well, I don't go on target. So Walmart I know does Costco for sure. Costco is a food store. I don't think target is as big as Walmart as far as like fresh fruit, but definitely frozen food, all that kind of stuff. You know, aisles of pop and water and chips and right, right, right. And all that kind of stuff. But you can definitely frozen food. You can buy bulk frozen food there. So, so there's going to be food deserts, all over the place, business deserts, whatever you want to call them. You know, it's amazing because you know, the, there's no policing. And the sad thing is that is the problem. It's not, there's no policing. I shouldn't say that. Excuse me. No, you're policing your asses off. I get it. There's no ability. There's no prosecution. There's no bill. You guys are arresting people, putting them in and they go right back on the street. They're getting, they're getting appearance tickets. It's a joke. Your point is no, there is no policing anymore because of the system, the Democrats put together where the police officers aren't going to bother. If you're a police officer and you know that somebody is going to be this, this carjacking or whatever is robbery. And you know that there's a potential, you're going to get an altercation where you're in New York state. There's two police officers that have been brought up on charges recently with almost a hundred percent chance that if you do catch that person, that person will be right back. Yeah. A hundred percent. Why would you bother? Why would you bother? You're not going to put your life in line. No way. You want to go home to see your wife and kids too, and your mother or your husband or whatever. You want to be able to spend your Christmas with your family. Why would you do that? And they know that, right? The Democrats know that. This is, you can't be this stupid. I mean, who allows these people to go right back on the streets and say, this is a good idea without correcting this right away. You can say, okay, bail reform. Our intentions were one thing, but when you look at the fact that in New York state, we are now breaking records in towns like Rochester and Buffalo for the most amount of vehicles being stolen. We can say, okay, look at bail reform, put it in place. It clearly did not work. It's been a total disaster. These towns have turned to shit. We absolutely need to go back in the other direction. They're not doing that. They don't care. They want to, and they're doubling down, tripling down on it, tripling down. We invited this liberal on, you actually were on the show with him and he said, things are actually safer since bail reform. That's what his argument was. His argument was, and by the way, his argument was if we have even less police officers, cities like Buffalo will get safer. Well the thought was less police officers, less arrests. Less arrests means less crime. Dude, you got the whole thing backwards, bro. And not only that, but now we know that, right? Now we know, now you can, I mean, literally auto thefts are up 360 % in Rochester. They're not up 3%. You can say, well, you know, in Buffalo and we're in second place. And they can't play, they can't play in COVID. They're trying to like, well, it was a lockdown. People were at pent up, whatever. Remember that was the, that was the reason for the rioting and the ballooning and burning like, well, people had a lot of pent up. We probably should have locked them down. That was a little bit of the reason for the increase in suicides. You guys, you guys increased suicides because you locked kids in their homes, but it wasn't the reason that they went and decided to steal Nike sneakers from a footlocker. So check this out. Speaking of COVID, this is huge. This is, I don't know if you saw this or not, but this is absolutely ginormously huge. Dr. Fauci was smuggled into CIA headquarters without a record of entry where he participated in the analysis to influence the agency's COVID -19 investigation according to the house select subcommittee on the coronavirus pandemic. Did he need to do much with these left -wing CIA agents? Probably not. No, no, no. That's what they're smuggling him in for. Well they smuggled him in because they didn't want anybody to know that he was part of the PSYOP operation, which was hydroxychloric. By the way, the I think it was a Mayo clinic and some other hospitals now have come out as well as the CDC and said hydroxychloroquine, yes, indeed is an effective treatment for COVID. Oh, by the way, ivermectin also an effective treatment. The CDC now approving that. Now mind you, we're going to keep in mind that if there was any other treatments that couldn't get the emergency use authorization for these vaccines that clearly don't work. Amazingly, I'm still seeing people online go signing off my sixth booster on our way for the sixth shot, proud to get our sixth shot. How about how about one the other day, local left -wing nut job got her sixth booster shot, six shot and she still got COVID and then she said, well, I was so good hiding and it got all my shots and then I went to a concert and I got it at this concert. Well, first of all, you don't know that, but second of all, if you have six shots and you six shots and you still got COVID and you actually think that was a good idea, you don't need a vaccination. You need a mental, you need a mental check. I tell you, I know people during the during the COVID, the height of the COVID that were older, some of our clients actually that were prescribed by a doctor a hydroxy quirk when they were taking it once a week as a as a preventative measure. Yeah. And they, to this day have never had COVID. Yeah. And it's, it's, I mean, so it, but the sad thing is again, you know, we couldn't, it's all about the money now. And that's, you know, when people talk about the evils of capitalism, you're seeing some of that. Now, capitalism is the best thing on the planet, right? As far as, you know, lifting the masses out of poverty and creating amazing amounts of wealth. But the problem is this isn't, this isn't capitalism. What's going on. This is cronyism is what's going on. It is, Hey, look at, I will give you these government dollars. You're going to get this patent. You're going to get this. Unholy marriage between business and government. Mark my word. We were talking about Feinstein selling 25, $30 million homes. This Fauci will be on the board of Pfizer. He'll be on the board of Moderna. He's going to get shares of those companies. He will be blessed with with with millions and millions of dollars. His family watch and see, we'll be talking if we're, if you and I are fortunate enough to be around 20, 30 years from now, we'll be talking about the Fauci trust and watch and monitor that trust and see how big that family trust. Well, you see how easy this is now. You look at how they move money around and how the in your face money laundering folks. This is what this is. This is corruption and fraud. Some of the Bidens are great at the money laundering part. They got 20 shell corporation, but guess who's getting the, guess who's going to be controlling the funding to rebuild Ukraine. We pay to destroy it. And guess what? The Hillary Clinton foundation gets paid to rebuild it. Right. And guess who's going to get the contracts to rebuild. Oh, that'll be probably one of the Biden family members or somebody else's politically connected. Right. Remember it was, it was a Joe Biden's brother who got the contract, the multi -billion dollar contract to rebuild Iraq. No building experience, never been a contractor, right? No idea. Right. This is why these projects cost 500 times what they're supposed to cost. This is why when money comes into Buffalo, for example, $25 million to build homes, five get built. And you were, wait a minute, five, are these $5 million homes in the East side? Each of those homes would have been built for a quarter million dollars or less. And yet where did the rest of the money go? And the, the answer is never, we don't know. We don't know. We can't account for it. Or we'd have no idea. Or I mean, how many times have we've seen that in so many places that whether right down the local level or God forbid at the federal level between, you know, Iraq and others. I was telling you last week on the radio, I was reading an article about the grants that were coming into the city of Buffalo to plant trees. And I thought, okay, wow, like this could be sweet. Okay. You know, like I'm a big tree guy. I love trees. I plant trees every year. I do think, okay, that's one way to, first of all, I think it's one way to make a community look great. When you, when you drive around, let's say North Buffalo, all the streets are all tree. They look beautiful. You drive around the East side, it looks like shit, right? So, okay. You're going to take some of my tax money and you're going to directly plant trees. Okay. It's a win for the environment. It looks nice. It's going to bring things together. I'm like, well, where's the catch? This is a government agency. Where are they going to screw it up? You read through and you find out that they're paying $1 ,000 a tree. Now you and I both know that if they're saying it's $1 ,000 a tree, by the time it's done, it'll be two to $3 ,000 a tree. Now you, you're talking about $13 million worth of trees. You and I just planted trees. Every year we plant a few trees around our office, you know, three, four in the spring, three, four in the fall, just so they can start to grow and work their way in. And then, you know, plant more. We pay $250 a tree, plant it. Right.
Real Estate Coaching Radio
A highlight from Real Estate Agents Complete Door Knocking Guide (Part 4)
"Welcome to Real Estate Coaching Radio, starring award -winning real estate coaches and number one international bestselling authors, Tim and Julie Harris. This is the number one daily radio show for realtors looking for a no BS, authentic, real time coaching experience. What's really working in today's market, how to generate more leads, make more money and have more time for what you love in your life. And now your hosts, Tim and Julie Harris. We are back. And actually we are picking up where we left off a week ago when we were talking about door knocking. And I have to say, Julie, the door knocking podcast series that you wrote has become one of our biggest downloaded and listened to podcasts. And now it's quickly becoming one of our biggest downloaded and viewed YouTube videos, which it is something door knocking and learning how to be a proactively generator is definitely something that everyone wants to know how to do, needs to know how to do, because really a lot of the passive lead generation stuff from social and from buying leads, it's had its day in the sun, all these passive ideas and as the economy changes, as the housing market changes, people are realizing they are going to have to actually get off their dust and learn how to be proactively generators and had to have real meaningful conversations with real estate perspective, real estate clients. And in doing so, and I know you're reading this as well from our people who email us and text us and all the rest of it, they're having more expensive, more expensive, right? They're having more success from that experience faster than they thought. They that they had no clue, frankly, that they're going to be able to generate so many leads so quick. Yes, absolutely. And here's the thing. This doesn't cost you anything. Right. And at the same time, there's so many added benefits. For example, of course, your skills are going to increase your ability to have really great, valuable conversations about real estate. That's going to get better and better with every conversation you have. Of course, we all know that most real estate transactions do indeed come from a face to face conversation about real estate. Most people will choose to work with the first person they talk to about their situation. Your job is to be that person. And another great byproduct of this, Tim, is that it creates a lot of lead follow up for these guys where also you have a high likelihood of setting your next appointments from. But, you know, really, all those things are the practical, tactical reasons you want to, you know, door knock or do any kind of proactive lead generation. But I'll say the biggest psychological mindset reason why is because a lot of agents right now, most agents right now are looking for a sense of direction. They feel the markets change. I mean, really, I don't know. Did I tell you this, Jules? They're originally they were expecting there to be five point five million home sales this year. And now they're actually projecting. I believe it's NAR that's projecting now it's only five million home sales. So five hundred thousand fewer home sales. But that's actually a million home sales fewer than last year or something like that. So you're talking about a very significant number of real estate agents who won't be doing real estate transactions at all. And a lot of the agents who are listening to us right now and are in the business have only been in real estate, frankly, for the last five years or less. And if you've not sold real estate for more than really 15 years, you've not sold real estate during a transitioning market, you're at an advantage and you're at a disadvantage. And the disadvantage is, you know, or the advantage is you don't have the battle scars, you know, so you don't have the bad memories of what that market's like. But the disadvantage is, is you don't know how different things really can be and how quickly they can change. And if you've been in real estate only in the really the last five or even 10 years, you've come up during a very sort of bizarre time in the real estate industry because there's been this advent of all this lead buying and team building and branding and marketing. These things really have hit their peak. Why? Because there was so much money that was in real estate, so many agents looking to spend money, so many agents not really understanding how to decide what they should spend their money on, if they should spend their money at all on anything. And so as a result, that's brought in a lot of these businesses that were venture funded. And, you know, I don't want to bore all of you, but the moral of the story is a lot of those businesses are washing out a lot of these ideas that never really worked in real estate, even in the best of times, are really going to prove out not to work certainly in a changing market like we're experiencing now. That's the reason every single one of you need to accept the fact that we're in a new market. And that's fantastic. There's going to be fewer transactions in most of the country. And that's actually not a bad thing either when you take into consideration that your biggest competitor, for the most part, isn't the seasoned grizzled veteran. Your biggest competitor is the other agent who just got their license or maybe the other agent who the seller might know because their kids played together or just some social connection. But as those types of agents who aren't really serious about the business get out of the business, the ones that have skills are actually they're absolutely going to clean up. That's the reason that during a market shift like this, you always see. Well, you see one or two things. You see new kings crowned, new queens crowned in the marketplaces. Those are the agents that were able to adapt to the new market, learn the new skills. They didn't wait around for the market to change back the way it was. They said, this is what it is. I'm going to make the most of it. And then sometimes you also see the agents who are at the top of the market, who are the actual dominant agents. They actually start to get more market share. So you could. But here's where it's interesting. It's fascinating. I have to be careful saying this because it offends some people, but it's still true. A lot of what happens in a market like this are the dug in grizzled teams and brokers refuse to change. They still try to carry their old way of thinking and their old expense structure into this new market. And when they do that and the new market essentially doesn't allow them to, frankly, make it work cash flow wise, they go out of business and they have to hit a hard reset on their personal and business lives. I'll suggest if you're in that bucket, if you're in that bracket, if you're realizing that you're essentially trying to model your business after something that worked in the past market, you need to take a seriously hard look at adapting very quickly to the new realities. Otherwise, frankly, you're going to most likely suffer needlessly. Don't wait to learn what I just said is true. Get ahead of whatever is going to happen next, because, guys, a million fewer transactions is a million fewer transactions. That's a lot of transactions that are leaving the marketplace. And a lot of you, again, have been buying your business and the quality of the leads. Have you noticed the quality, especially the buyer leads has really gone to pot? Well, that's just going to get worse as well. So please, please, please, please don't wait to experience hardship to realize what I'm telling you is true. Take action on all that now. So we're going to get back to door knocking. And this is the last part of our four part series. So, Julie, point number 13. Yes, part four point number 13 post on social media, especially on YouTube, a video of you starting to prospect a specific neighborhood. This should be you in front of the neighborhood sign or something recognizable about where you are. Share some fast facts and explain that you'll be there this afternoon, connecting with all of the neighbors and answering any real estate questions. Give your mobile number posted on all of your social media. And of course, you can refer to our podcast series about how to utilize videos for real estate agents. Now, let's I'm going to talk real briefly about this. First of all, YouTube is now migrating towards trying to be a little tick tocky. And so is Instagram. In other words, it's starting to give more priority to short videos, which is perfect because short videos don't have to be really produced at a high level. It's great. And what Julie just said, why are we telling you to do this? Because what's going to happen is as you're door knocking and getting to know the neighbors and essentially building your centers of influence and past clients, they're most likely going to do a little bit of googling on you to find out what your your story is. And so if you created a lot of these little short snippet, you know, tick tock type videos and they're on Instagram, they're on YouTube and maybe even on tick tock, what's going to happen is those search results will come up and they're going to see your very proactive in the community. You get it? So all we're trying to do is use the social to reinforce, use the passive, the social media to reinforce the proactive, which is you door knocking. That is closing the loop. That's creating a Web. Now, there is a way to do these videos. And Julie gave you some ideas. We also include in our premier coaching, which is free for all of you, a 12 month social media marketing plan. It's something a lot of you, frankly, are struggling with because you don't know what to talk about, what to do. And we give you a lot of great ideas, kind of model out your entire year what you should be doing. I just gave you some ideas right there. If you want to join premier coaching for free, you heard that right. For free, simply text the word premier to four seven three seven two. Text the word premier to four seven three seven two. Or you can always go to members dot Tim and Julie Harris dot com if you don't want to text or if you're outside of the continental United States. But the easiest way for sure is just to text the word premier p r e m i e r to four seven three seven two. And when you do, we'll text you back a link.

This is a perfect time of year for you to be getting your skills 100 percent in alignment with this new market. So text the word premier to four seven three seven two. Remember, when texting message and data rates may apply. Yes. So back to point number 13, just for a second. So let's say that you went door knocking today in Oak Creek. You talked about it. You gave some fast facts. You let everybody know you'll be there this afternoon. Well, maybe this weekend somebody in Oak Creek is thinking about listing their property. One of the first things they're going to do is go to Google and say agents or realtors or real estate agents in Oak Creek. They want to know who actually sells that area. And guess whose video is going to pop up, assuming that you did point number 13. Well, you know, you're going to get me we're never going to move past 13. But this is really this is such a sweet thing that she just said. You all should do this experience or experiment. Go to your phone, go to open up Chrome, assuming you have that on your phone, and then do a search for Julius using Oak Creek. I mean, Oak Creek's a subdivision we used to sell in. But use the name of a subdivision in a community, like as if you were a buyer looking. And then what I want you to notice is the first ads that come up are the pay -per -click ads. And then after that, what you're going to see is usually in the second or usually the first, second or third search results, you're going to see search results from YouTube. In other words, you're going to see that Google is starting to give priority to these short little snippet videos that I just described to you, and they're prioritizing the videos above the normal search results. In other words, you're going to get primo search results. Why? Because they want people to click search results and they know people will click video search results, like at a 5 to 1 ratio, more than a textural search result. So you need to be doing these little short videos in conjunction with what you're already doing. Now, it's not enough just to do the video. You're going to have to use a system like the one Julie and I use is called vidIQ to make sure you're getting all the YouTube SEO stuff right. You have to title it right. You have to put in tags. It's all very... None of that's hard, though. Oh, it's super simple. I mean, frankly, if you and I know how to do it. Right. And vidIQ is so cheap, I don't even remember how much it costs. There's a free version. OK, there you go. And we're not we're not affiliated with vidIQ. It's just vidIQ. And then it'll tell you essentially how to make it so that your videos get higher placement. The key is always to have very drilled down titles in your descriptions saying today I'm door knocking and getting to know the neighbors in Oak Creek subdivision nothing and a lot of you know, you don't need a lot of blithering and blathering, just very three or four lines. And then you want to put your links. You want to if you'd like to contact me about home for sale in Oak Creek or if you're thinking about selling your home in Oak Creek and then give your cell phone number, things like that. And what you'll find is you'll start generating leads from your YouTube. But what you're really trying to do is close the loop. Door knock. Hello. Hi, it's Bob at my door. Bob's here to provide me some information about recent home sales. Bob's, you know, very nice, very approachable. I like Bob. Bob's great. He's obviously trying to do a great job getting home sold in our community. Well, I'm more curious. I'm curious about Bob before I actually want to further my relationship with him. I have my phone in my pocket. I pull it out. I Google Bob's name, but I find Bob's actually very proactive. You guys get it. This is all free. Every single thing we told you how to do so far is free. Yes. And the super cool thing about doing the video in addition or in conjunction with your actual door knocking is that that video is going to live on and the search results will live on. So it gives a boost to that door knocking. OK, point number 14, door knock the neighborhood prior to all of your open houses. Again, give out a flyer with the stats for the neighborhood and add your home brochure for the home that you'll hold open. Ask who they know who you should invite to the open house. Ask permission to place your directional signs in the yards. And don't forget to ask, who do you know who could use my help buying or selling real estate? Well, let me give you a little bit of an enhancement to this. Now, this will work pretty much in all price ranges. But what our best age we have agents that are making, you know, millions of dollars per year. One of their primary lead drivers is doing exactly what we talk about. One of the things you want to do, it works sometimes unbelievably well in certain neighborhoods, usually more expensive neighborhoods realistically. But one of the things you want to do is you want to have a neighbors only open house prior to the main open house. And so what you can do is you can go and door knock the neighbors, invite them to the open house, and then by inviting them to the open house, you're going to maybe have the open house, the normal one for the public open from one till four, where you're going to have the neighbors only open house from, say, you know, 12 till one or something like that. What you're doing is you're just showing that you're more proactive and you're getting to know all the neighbors and the neighbors are going to think, you know what? This gives me the opportunity to go through that house and look in their garage and see if they ever gave me my mower back or my, you know, search for that search for the missing, you know, whatever, see if my neighbors accidentally snatched it. That's a bad joke, but you guys get the point. What we're really trying to do is position you, put you in. You're now door knocking. You're now having conversations. You're now delivering value to people. You're now being the person you want to be and you're working in the communities you want to work. You're actually doing real work of real estate. How does that make you feel? How does that make you feel versus, say, for example, working on your CRM more or less confident? How does that make you feel knowing you're having direct conversations with people versus, say, building a big funnel that hopefully maybe you're going to spend a bunch of money trying to get people to go into so you can drip on them door knocking, having real proactive conversations. It immediately energizes you, immediately makes you more in alignment with your highest and truest purpose in this planet, which is being of service to other people. Point number fifteen. Yes, and number fifteen is a mindset point. Believe that door knocking works and it will work. How you speak with someone when you're prospecting is greatly influenced by how you're thinking about what you're doing. Napoleon Hill said, what the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve. You'll have more energy and enthusiasm when you're all in versus I'm going to try it out or I'll see how it goes. I'm just going to do this for one day and see whether it works or not. So believe that it's working. Be consistent about it and your your attitude about it will cause you to have better results. And also with regards to that, when you're door knocking, use the scripts that we give you. We talked about those a little bit on the first couple of shows of the series, but obviously these are all waiting for you over on premier coaching and all of you are ready to join premier coaching. Don't wait. Just text the word premier to four seven three seven two and you can join right away. Remember when texting message and data rates may apply. Yes. Now our final point, number sixteen is number sixteen in a four part series because it's a bit more advanced. It's also one of my favorite points about door knocking. You can create a neighborhood directory as a way to get everyone's contact information and connect the community. This can be digital and or hard copy. It's a great excuse to door knock and you're providing value to the community. You can include a map of the neighborhood, phone numbers to the utility companies who service the neighborhood and a section for other recommended providers like the sprinkler guy, a pool guy, a painter, a dog walker, a babysitter. And of course, your real estate ad with testimonials will be in that section as well. Or you could put it in the back cover as directory sponsored by Bob Smith of Exp Realty, for example. This is why hard copy is nice. It stays in their kitchen with your information on it and they use it all the time. They're not going to throw it out. This is such a huge idea when you do it well. And of course, Julie and I did this as well. And yes, we could have leaned into one of those online portals. What was the one that was in Georgetown, like nextdoor .com and they provide. But they're keeping all of that pertinent information behind a paywall and you're not in control of it. So really, what you want to do is there's a couple of different ways to go about this. I would say you'll experience, again, depending on the price range, you're going to experience 50 percent of the people are going to be very apprehensive about giving their information out. So here's the move is you want to essentially create a fill in the blank flyer and the fill in the blank flyer has no required information. Now, you can have an address associated with a name. You don't have to have their permission to say one, two, three Elm Street is lived in by Bob and Betty Jones. Right. You can do that. All their other information, they have to decide whether they want to share it, their phone numbers, their email addresses, whatever else it is. So you will door knock and you will say we're putting together a directory as a community service. And this directory is only going to be given to people in the neighborhood. It's not going to be shared any other way. It's only going to be in print format. It's not going to be a digital format. No one's going to be able to essentially email it or anything like that. So you don't have to worry about any nefarious marketing that might happen as a result of it. This is just for the neighborhood. In addition to that, we're going to include a list of the service providers. So if you've got any on the same fill in the blank thing, who is your favorite babysitter? Who's your favorite roofer? Who is your preferred landscaper? Who is your preferred all the rest of it? Right. If you're from Columbus, Ohio, like where Julie and I are from, who's the best, most reliable person that's going to show up in the middle of the night and move the 14 feet of snow off your driveway, all that sort of thing. Right. Give them the babysitters, all these types of things. But that's really valuable. You know, I mean, how many times do you, oh, I got to go Google that and then I've got to look at reviews and I got to sift and sort all that out. What if you knew, and we talk about this all the time, that when somebody needs a service provider, what do they do? Who do I already know? If I don't already know somebody, I'm going to ask a trusted friend or advisor. I'm probably going to ask a neighbor because they're going to know who services the community. So this is a really valuable thing for you to put together. That will have shelf life. And of course, you can sponsor the back cover. You can include yourself in the service providers. There's lots of ways you can work this. And so you can you should do this. This is just thinking big here. You should do this every year. Now, when Julie and I did this, what we did was we do it. Actually, I don't think we updated it every year. I think we updated it like every 18 months or 24 months. But it was it was obviously completely voluntary. At first, people were apprehensive and then they felt left out. They had FOMO if not being in the directory.

"Another accent. Oh, this is big news, guys. Guys, this is almost a joke. I gotta be careful. Do we want to talk about this? It's what the people want to hear, I think. Well, I tell you what. I will talk about this because we brought Gary the Lizard up a moment ago. Yes. We finally have the truth. Her name is Tiffany Gomez. She's a marketing executive from Dallas who's actually very successful and lives in a $2 million home. That's the credentials now. So you're not, if you have a $1.9 million home, you could still be crazy. Yeah. But when you start buying $2 million homes... Do you know how much my house was to build? $2.1. $2.1 million. Yeah. And that's in Georgia. That's a lot of house. $10,000 square feet. Got a batting cage. So you're not crazy. Anyone who says you're crazy, you have a $2.1 million house. 100%. 100%. It's qualified. God, this is almost a joke, guys. We gotta be careful with this. Yeah, true. I love this. Can we have someone reach out? I would love to get her on the show. I don't think she'll come on the show, but I would love to get Tiffany on the show. Are you her name's Tiffany? Tiffany. Tiffany. The name that keeps on giving. Gomez or Gomez? Gomez. Gomez. You know what that means in Spanish? Go more. Go more, yeah. That's not what that means in Spanish. You'd make $30k a day doing NPC work on TikTok, right? Yeah, $30k a day on TikTok shooting. NPC work. But she already has a $2 million home, Deezy, so why does she need to do that? So... Let's see it. Yeah. Okay. Thanks, guys. Bitcoin open interest surges as price hits two-week high, guys. This is a very serious story. After several consecutive weeks of muted trading, Bitcoin sprang to action Tuesday, turning 3.6% to pierce above $30,000. As of right now, the price is at 29.7%, so it has returned, has dipped. Tuesday, total aggregate open interest for Bitcoin futures ballooned by more than a billion. Bitcoin futures, they, for the quarter, ends at the end of next month. So, we really watched this towards the end of the quarter. So, end of quarter three. Despite the recent pullback, market is contending with significant accumulation of open interest. That's OI, not OI. Which, OI, OI, OI. That would be if we were making jokes, something we would say. Which could come under pressure if the downward trend persists. So, there we go. There's your open interest. Very interesting story. Bitcoin institutional outflows touch 4-month high as Bitcoin struggles. Well, now, that's interesting because that's bullish, and that maybe the government's offsetting it right now. The crypto summer doldrums, that's the term I use for this, the doldrums, that's where we're at right now, have come out in full force in weekly trading volumes and investment products, have experienced a 36% below year-to-date average. The wider on exchange market volumes have taken a bigger hit, suffering more, 62%. Altcoins are not left out of the mix regionally. Outflows focused on two exchange traded product providers, Germany and Canada, which accorded $71 million and $29 million respectively in outflows. Guys, aren't outflows bullish? I'm a little confused by this. These are investment products. It's not for exchanges. That's the difference. So there you go. FRACs founder proposes expansion into real world assets. Now, we just talked about FRACs the other day, or maybe it was this week. FRACs is, I believe, like synthetics. It's about synthetic assets. FRACs founder Sam Kazeman has proposed using a US corporation as a conduit for FRACs to custody cash deposits, reverse repo contracts, treasury bills and other traditional financial instruments. I'm sure this guy's not on the government hit list right now. FRACs is the sixth largest stablecoin. It's a stablecoin. Wow, it's a v3 stable. There's a stablecoin, but they're also trying to make synthetic assets. So I'm a little confused on this. The project's governance token is a governance token. That's insane. Up 8% in the past two weeks. One to watch. FRACs isn't one that's been on my radar really. We may look into it on the channel or on the 830 show. You guys don't miss the 830 show. It's a killer show. 830 AM show is the best show we do. No offense.
Real Estate Coaching Radio
A highlight from NEW Real Estate Scripts (and Techniques) For THIS Market!
"Welcome to Real Estate Coaching Radio, starring award -winning real estate coaches and number one international bestselling authors, Tim and Julie Harris. This is the number one daily radio show for realtors looking for a no BS, authentic, real time coaching experience. What's really working in today's market, how to generate more leads, make more money, and have more time for what you love in your life. And now your hosts, Tim and Julie Harris. We are back and Julie Harris, we are continuing on the unofficial theme that we have for this week's podcast, which is about scripts, scripts for this real estate market because the scripting that you need to have if you've ever had scripting at all in your real estate business is significantly different than it was just 24 months ago and frankly even 12 months ago. This is true. Right. So when we're going through ours, what we're going to be doing is we're going to be going through some actual scripts but some techniques, in other words, the logic and the thinking behind them. Now, we'll start out by saying this, everybody uses scripts, whether they're formalized scripts that you've learned over time or they're scripts you just sort of made up. So if you're just getting started in real estate or frankly if you've only sold real estate in the last 15 years and you're now realizing you need to relearn what you thought you knew to be successful in real estate, here's a little suggestion for all of you. Start with proven scripts and then what you want to do is memorize the scripts, internalize the scripts and then you need to personalize the scripts. Those of you who are going right to the personalization of your scripts, picking up a little script here, picking up a little script there, thinking of basically winging it, this market's not going to suffer that for very long because you need to be very drilled down, need to be focused and need to frankly not risk losing a deal because guess what, deals are becoming harder to come by. 4 .1 million home sales are projected for this year and it hasn't been that few of home sales since 2008. So do not risk losing a transaction over frankly not knowing what to say. That's very well put Tim and I would say it's not just for the newbies. Some of our grizzled veterans are finding themselves a little bit stymied by changes in the market. What do I say? How do I say it? How do I speak positively when I'm feeling like I'm kind of freaking out myself in some cases? So you nailed it on the head when you said everybody uses scripts even though they're made up sometimes but worse than making up your own scripts that are unproven is sometimes not saying anything at all or not talking about real estate at all because you're not sure where the conversation is going. We call those lovingly secret agents but secret agents don't do very many deals. So today we're going to talk about four of the most common things you'll have to deal with, how to deal with them correctly, some basic scripting. Your elite coaching clients, the people that are qualifying to be in your coaching schedule, I've listened to some of your calls before. Are you surprised, and most of them that are coming to you are successful by all measures. They've been successful, some of them for ten or maybe quite successfully and they've made millions and millions of dollars but are you surprised how basic a lot of the conversations you're having with these guys is? You know what I mean. I do. A basic in the sense that we're going back to basics in a way where it's keeping, I would say the overriding theme with our more successful longevity agents is reminding them that it's okay if a listing takes like 30 days to sell and don't be suicidal of it because what it does I've noticed is you're having to have more conversations, more complicated conversations and then it can demotivate them from wanting more. Right, of course. But then also the fact that a lot of them are coming to you having essentially allowed themselves to feel vulnerable admitting that they don't know what the market might think that they knew. In other words, they're allowing themselves to be, I said vulnerable but it's what, conscious incompetence really. Conscious incompetence and introspective. Right, and that's really important and all of us need to be putting ourselves in that position no matter whether it's obviously with real estate or just anything else. Always look for opportunities to find your blind spots because that's where your growth is always going to be. If you're just essentially resolute that you know what you know and what you know is good enough and it's going to get you through whatever the market has in store for us, you will most likely experience a lot of headwinds that you otherwise could have avoided if you're willing to be adaptable and adaptable and versatile, that's really what scripting truly is. So I want you to be really clear in your minds. A script is not just read it this way, do it this way, you must do it this way. Don't think that's what a real good script is. A script is in essence a conversation outline and it is again in the order of, this is Julie and I's core belief about scripting, you do have to memorize it first. Memorize it not in the sense that you can memorize it like you just say it without having it in front of you but memorize it at least so that if it's in front of you, you have comfort with what's going to happen next in the script so you've practiced it, you're familiar with it. The best way to do that by the way is using scripts on real clients. Then after you've memorized it, then you internalize it. By the way, the memorization and the internalization happen simultaneously and then personalize it. I said it a second ago but it's really critical that you get it in your head. If you want to avoid the pitfalls that many agents are suffering from in this market, just follow the proven path up the mountain and not try to create your own. One of the best proven paths or for those of you who frankly qualify is to hire Julie If you're interested in having Julie Harris as your personal coach, I'm going to give you a couple of little notices. Number one, she's very selective in who she's going to personally coach. Number two, she's not cheap. Number three, she's frankly going to be very, again, back to point one, selective in who she's going to personally coach.

"Those of you who are in the conscious incompetence phase where you know what you don't know or at least are starting to experience that maybe you don't know what you hoped you knew, those are the ones that are going to be receptive to listening to what we're trying to say. So, a cautionary tale for the rest of you, don't stay in that unconscious incompetence phase too long because I don't know what your future is going to be in this market because guess what guys, you know, this market is not, 4 .1 million home sales are projected for this year. They've revised it from 4 .4 to 4 .1. The last time we had 4 .1 million home sales was 2008. Julie and I are coaching and training there. We know how to help you guys through the market. But the other thing that was happening in 2008, there was crap tons of new construction that was sitting unsold and the builders weren't putting them in the MLS and all kinds of different opportunity. There was no lack of inventory problem. And interest rates... We actually had a lot more inventory. We had about 4 million homes on the market at the peak. So, the moral of the story is that right now if you don't accept the fact that you have to accept what the market has to give you but then match the market with the skills needed if then you're just trying to essentially fit a round peg in a square hole, in other words your scripts and techniques and even lead generation methods from the past market, you're going to needlessly struggle. And the market's not going to bounce back anytime soon. We're in a long -term cycle. There are going to be some saving graces to look forward to. Maybe rates go down in the next 12 to 18 months. We're definitely going to see more new construction and things like that. But eventually what we're going to see is we're going to see that the market is like the people...

"I'm doctor Anthony Liz, and this is climate connections. Going solar can reduce people's energy costs and their impact on the climate. But not everyone's home is well suited for rooftop solar panels, so community solar programs provide another option. In these programs, multiple community members buy or lease part of a solar farm, and then share the benefits. 50% of households and 50% of businesses can not put solar on their rooftops today. And that's why community solar is so important to really make the benefits of clean energy more accessible to everyone. Nicole Steele is with the U.S. Department of Energy. She says the agency set a goal of helping 5 million homes connect to community solar by 2025. It's audacious. It's a 700% increase over where it was in just a four year time frame. But still says the goal is reachable to achieve it, the DOE launched the national community solar partnership. It offers technical assistance, peer to peer networking, and other support to solar developers, utilities, governments, and others. By sharing knowledge and resources, partners hope to rapidly expand access to solar energy. Climate connections is produced by the Yale center for environmental communication.

"All right, so clay brought up this possibility just now of something with Elon and Tucker. Now, look, if we're gonna just be looking at Dream Team scenarios, we're a lot of people who are doing it. People are doing this on the political side. They're saying, oh, Tucker as a VP. We talked about it a little bit. Yeah. We don't think that's going to happen. That's very unlikely. But it's fun to think about it. And it gets into some of the dynamics here of, I think, what a popular figure he is on the right and what a guy how capable he would be at moving the needle. But if you're talking about the possibility of doing something that would really shake up the media marketplace, I mean, look, let's understand, even with cable, Fox got this beachhead a long time ago. In 1996 when Fox News started. Nobody else, nobody else has been able to get full cable coverage for a conservative channel. Some of the other channels have gotten up to. There's roughly a 100 million homes just a little bit of kind of insider cable news talk. There's roughly a 100 million homes in the country. And at different times, I think the blaze got up to 15 or 20 million when I was there. I don't know where it stood after that. That was years ago. Newsmax clay, maybe at 30 million homes, something like no one's ever gone to a 100 million, except fox. And no one's going to get to a 100 million. Unless someone buys a channel and flips it, but the cable companies make that really hard. Well, in that business model is starting to collapse too, 'cause they got all the way up to a 100 million cable and satellite subscribers. We're back down to 70 or 75 for most channels. So this is really interesting to follow and the idea of evil on coming in and saying, hey, I'm going to get the biggest voice on the right. And let's say he went out and went after one of the biggest voices on the left and he said, I want to have a true marketplace of ideas hosted directly inside of Twitter. It wouldn't cost that much money relative to what he's already spent for Twitter to make a big swing like that. And if he also got a prominent voice on the left, heck, what if he went and signed Don lemon? What if he signed Don lemon and he signed Tucker Carlson and he said, hey, welcome to Twitter. Your new home for debate. Whoever has a platform that has critical mass, but also the belief in both the content creators and the audience that everyone's getting a fair shake. It's never gonna be perfect nothing is perfect, but a Instagram and Facebook are a joke, okay? TikTok is a joke. YouTube is a joke. These places are lib enclaves. So if Twitter becomes the one place where you can actually host a show, put full video up, monetize, could be a game changer. Could really matter. I mean, look at what they did with Twitter when it was evil Twitter. I should start calling it evil Twitter. It's like, that was the period. And now it's now it's Elon Twitter when it was even when it was evil Twitter, they used it to basically throw the election to Joe Biden by suppressing the Hunter Biden laptop story, which a lot of people based on the polling would have changed their minds based on. No doubt. So, you know, I think that's their folks. I think there's a serious possibility here that you may see some major shifts in the media marketplace

Fox News Loses Two Conservative Heavyweights in 72 Hours
"A ton of emails here. And some I just want to address a sentiment. We got a couple hundred emails. Of people say Charlie, I don't understand why this is a big deal. Tucker's going to be fine. You're right. Tucker will be fine. And Tucker will find a way to communicate to his audience. The guy's a workhorse. He works his tail off. He'll figure it out. The issue is not that. The issue is that a mainstream cable network having a voice like Tucker was a good thing for the country. It was. That that is an undeniable fact. The fact that you could have on one of the few cable news channels, which is in a 100 million homes or like a 115 million homes, somebody that is as conservative and effective as Tucker Carlson is undeniably important. Tucker will succeed wherever he goes and he will keep on speaking the truth, but having another Fox News that is able to reach as many people as Fox was is very hard. It's like we said last week, you could not rebuild Fox from scratch today. They have grandfathered in cable contracts. So therefore, the country was benefiting from having a nightly drum beat like Tucker Carlson. But it's not just Tucker. I'm sad to say that the news on Friday was also the great Dan bongino, is done, and Fox News, Dan bongino could not come to terms, and they move on. So both Dan bongino and Tucker Carlson within 72 hours have moved on.

Fox News Is Paying a Whopping $787 Million Settlement to Dominion
"Yesterday, Fox News decided to settle with dominion voting systems for a staggering 787 $1 million. Now, the facts surrounding this case are interesting. And I am going to stand by my earlier statement that we need all forms of conservative media, and it's a good thing. That in a 100 million homes, if you count DirecTV and you count Comcast and you count spectrum, that there is a conservative option. Tucker Carlson, Laura Ingraham, Jesse watters, they do a fabulous job. And of course, you could disagree with plenty of Fox with fox does Maria bartiromo fabulous. I certainly and turning point USA have certainly benefited from being illegal on Fox throughout the years. Fox made a settlement because they were at risk of maybe paying twice as much of that at trial. So what was at dispute? Well, the dispute was about dominion voting machines.

Coal use climbs worldwide despite promises to slash it
"Coal use is climbed worldwide despite promises to slash it. I'm Lisa dwyer. The burning of coal for electricity, cement, steel, and other uses went up in 2022. Despite global promises to face down the fuel that's the biggest source of planet warming gases in the atmosphere. According to a report by global energy monitor, the cold fleet grew by 19.5 gigawatts last year. That's enough to light up around 15 million homes with nearly all of the newly commissioned coal projects in China, China, India, Indonesia, turkey, and Zimbabwe were the only countries that both added new coal plants and announced new projects. China accounted for 92% of all new coal projects announced. The reports said that the increase comes at a time when the world needs to retire its coal fleet. Four and a half times faster to meet climate goals. I'm Lisa dwyer

Los Angeles residents voted to pass an additional real estate sales tax on luxury properties last November. Proceeds will go towards expanding the supply of affordable housing in this city and helping people at risk of homelessness. Sellers will pay 4% city tax on transactions over 5 million, but under 10 million. Homes that go for 10 million or more will be taxed at 5 and a half percent. The city expects the measure to raise 675 million for its housing programs. The impending tax prompted many homeowners to Hurley pitch a for sale sign in their front yard to avoid steep payments later. For example, example a seller of $44 million home was serious amenities wants wine cellar spots on a movie theater could be on the hook for over 2.4 million if it fails to sell by next Saturday. Some sellers are offering steep discounts to attract buyers. The owner of a 260 acre undeveloped track in Bel Air is willing to slash 2 million off the price for anyone who's ready to close the deal by April 1st. And I guess this is an example. I mean, depending on your wealth, where your wealth is, I mean, at what point do they do cities get it together who are overwhelmed with the homelessness issue because they won't enforce the laws, when they bring it down to homes that a million, for example. Why don't we take a quick break? Concern about the concern about the last 18 months of the marketplace, give me a call. Let's have a conversation.

AT&T's Politically-Motivated Move to De-Platform Newsmax
"Of power that corporations have to be able to choose what you hear is disturbing and it's somewhat of a new phenomenon. AT&T AKA direct TV has been for years going and more and more in the woke direction. And I love watching newsmax. I know so many of you agree. They do such a great job and actually I watch them when I work out and I watch them on AT&T, my condo association provides DirecTV for all of us now because of their decision that's going to be put in jeopardy and not be able to happen. So joining us now is the CEO of newsmax does a fabulous job Chris ruddy to talk about this very urgent issue with a specific action item for our audience. Chris, welcome to the program. Well, Charlie, thank you for having me on. I think you do a fabulous job when you do a really incredible work. The media with young people and spreading the message. Well, thank you.

Charlie, you know, this really starts in 21 Nancy Pelosi gets control of the House, her democratic minions send a letter to AT&T and other cable operators and say, take one America channel on newsmax and Fox News off their spreading disinformation.

"Message and data rates may apply if you're texting. Point number 14. 14. Point number 14, let's talk about inventory. According to the national association of realtors, inventory is currently up by 12.6%. This is as of three days ago. Correct. Then that's year over year. But it is still far lower than what's needed. Currently sitting at about 1.16 million homes for sale or a 2.6 month supply. They don't know what that means. So let's explain it. Right. So right now, across the country, there's 1.6 million homes for sale and we do believe those are homes that are in the MLS, may or may not include new construction that's not listed. So just correct as well as for sale by owners and stuff like that. Exactly. So that means there's a 2.6 month supply. So based on what's being called absorption. So based on what selling right now, the number of homes that are selling per month right now. It would take approximately if no other new homes came for sale, it would take basically less than three months for all 1.6 million homes to be sold. 1.16, but yeah. Well, sorry, 1.16, right? So it would take basically so effectively you can do the math in your head. There's a little better than what would it be? 300,000, something like that. A little better than that that are being sold per month. So if no other new homes came for sale, all of a sudden, no homes come for sale, no listings completely gone. Three months from now, effectively, there's no homes for sale. That is not a problem for the real estate market. And I know some of you, you're like, holy crap, it didn't take, you know, I had to have the house for sale for more than 6 hours. Listen to me, folks. 90 days. 2.6 month supply. That's incredible. Does that does give the buyers a fighting chance of getting a house? That does create optimism in the market because the sellers that are fence setting thinking they won't be able to get a house

"So even though you think something happened in your past the way your memory remembers it, it probably didn't. Or if it did, maybe you've added things to it over the years that have made it so that it's even worse than it actually was. So why the hell would you actually think about it anymore? Why define yourself by something that may or may not have happened in the past? Look how that's adversely stealing from your present and the same thing goes through the future. And I think right now, frankly, what a lot of people are mostly plagued by, especially in our industry, is over worry or worry at all about what comes next in housing. So again, we're going to summarize this. Here's what comes next in housing. You're going to be incredibly successful because there's a record number of people like an all time historic record number of people that have to buy or sell real estate. Yes, there's a slowing of inventory, but this time last year, July checked. There was a million homes for sale. This new resale homes are a million homes for sale. And yes, this time of year this year in 2022, there's 500,000 homes for sale. Last year, not including new construction, we think. If we remember correctly, there were 6 million homes that sold. Which means there were 12 million real estate transactions, the average commission, I'm going to guess was probably what would it be? Hard to figure out three times 12 to 15 grand. Yeah, each, right? So that's how much money basically agents made last year. And you guys are worried that there's not enough to go around. There's enough to go around as long as you're willing to do what you don't want to do. You have to find it. You have to go after it.

"In the first place. We hamas a really interesting pool of investors a lot of high net worth individuals who were very interested in our you know sort of environmental mission we do have a few institutional investors as well and then we have some Just real estate investors that like the business model so it's a good mix of investors for this first funds when you say real estate investors do you mean like cbre like big real estate companies or you mean individuals individuals with real estate backgrounds. Yeah oh that's interesting Who obviously are they doing it. Because they wanna support a transition to a carbon low-carbon economy or are they doing it because they think it's a good deal. I think they're doing it for both reasons. I would say that when we put together our investor presentation. There's a strong focus not only of course on the returns because that has to be present. But you know we are very much an environmentally mission driven company. And when we you know it's been my background since undergraduate and i think a lot of not only individuals but also institutional investors were attracted that. Well it's interesting. You say that because one thing that caught my eye on your website was that it said that your financing model mitigate some of the financial risk and so. I'm curious about that. Are you mitigating the financial risk of putting the solar power on that land. Or are you what what is the financial which part of the financial risk a great question so a lot of times the asset owners of these solar farms if you think about it from there and they have to deal with dozens if not hundreds of landowners across the country it has much easier for them to have a solar reads on the other end release or their land and time they need anything so the landowners credit all of those things become non issues. When we're the ones dumping into the lease or owning feasible. simple interesting oh that's entities. What makes it cleaner okay. So a couple of career related questions. You mentioned that you've been at this a long time right. I it seems like you. You got the hunger for it really at a very early age. So what inspired that interest from such an early age. What what what catapulted you into this. It's a really funny. I've been reflecting on this a little bit recently. So when i went to undergraduate school at the university of remond at school has an incredibly strong school of natural resources and a very strong environmental studies and environmentalist. Science program in the issue of climate change was being discussed there well before it became mainstream so i was there and I guess i started there in. Nineteen ninety. eight as as theme of climate change. Was the common thread. Throughout my undergraduate education you mentioned early on the main sources carbon emissions and it became very clear to me that energy which was not at all sexy at the time at all was one of the main contributors to climate change. And it was either going to be going to focus on electricity or i was going to focus on transportation. Those areas was most interested in so right out of undergrad. I started working at an environmental nonprofit. Was there for a while. And then obviously my path evolved from wins and solar but it was always energy and the environment that were sort of married together. And i knew i wanted to focus on those on those two topics call well. My world is both energy and transportation to is. I think you and i talked about before and my listeners know from having my having been in the electric car industry which is how i got into this space. When a lot of people don't know is that i also was a leader in the executive of the los angeles metropolitan transit authority rolling out that system. Which was you know. Getting people unstable from their cars in la is a whole nother phd thesis on absolutely so we like to give career advice to mid career women. So we're not talking so much about women who are just getting out of college what we're talking about people. Frankly kind of like us or us a couple of years ago where you know. Have say twelve to fifteen years of experience who have an education who who understand what they're good at and where they're what they're hunkering for and they want to use their education and experience to make a difference. They're ambitious they wanna make money so it's not just something they wanna do on the side they wanna do it as a career. What advice would you give to them. So some of the things. I think have been really important for me and it's kind of cliche because you hear it all the time. Your network is really important so for me. I basically started my career after i was in dc for a twelve years and i still maintain contact with people that i've worked with over the past twenty years so that now work is critical because those are the people know you and support you and can open doors on a regular basis especially in the renewable energy market. Where there's a lot of people looking for positions i would also say finding mentors has been really important for me and having a sounding board for decisions have been really important to me. I think the third pieces you've got to be willing to take risks. So that's been something that i learned. Probably in the last five years being willing to take risks has been something that really good at as i got older to explain that a little bit. It's interesting because i'm i just finished reading interview. A friend of mine. Who wrote a book called. You are what you risk and it's really cool. I highly recommend it. I'm michelle walker. I interviewed her previously interview. Her on the book coming up shortly so you know this concept of risk has so many dimensions and obviously we're talking about calculated risk. Not you know people say even in extreme sports they you think that they just sort of say. Oh that's a cool cliff. I'm going to jump off it. And actually that's not how they go down. They do a lot of research and check time. Whatever so talk about how you decided on how you evaluate risk so using the example of joining in launching the startup. That wasn't just sort of a willy nilly decision of hey. This seems like a good idea. There was about nine months of research into okay. Do i think this is a viable says. I think this is at least a fighting chance of being successful. Which is how. I liked to take risks so but of course there you know. A lot of new businesses fail. I mean the stats out there. But at the same time. I have learned more about myself in the startup process than i ever have working at any other.

Because the heat wave continues throughout the southwest. Christina Coleman has the latest more triple digit temps are expected throughout the state's governor, Gavin Newsom, signed an emergency proclamation to free up additional energy capacity. Now California does rely heavily on solar power, but that drops off when the sun goes down. Also, the state does import power, but getting extra power from other places. To be tough right now, because so many states are going through this heat wave like in Texas, where the state is facing another power squeeze on Monday about 12,000 megawatts of power went off line there.

It's iowa you know but the moral of the story here is we are in the early throes of what's going to be long long-term. How did how shortage problem crisis. Whatever word you want to use. So the moral of the story for all of you is gravitate towards being listing agents as fast as you possibly can do your part so largely. What we're doing here is not just ending the pain but asking you to face this is what's going on and part of this. Is i believe from a coaching standpoint. Due to agents being afraid to have these conversations. Yeah and we've been talking about this very topic on and off in different forms for a long period of time but really at the end of the day. You've got to get real clear in your head. There is no housing crash anywhere on the near horizon for all the reasons we talked about. All of our previous podcasts. Go listen to it. And there's no reason to believe that there's going to be any sort of a pivot away from it being a strong seller's market and in some markets in amazingly strong seller's market for some time to come what some time to come years three to five years that's what most of the prognosticators prognosticating and jillian.

It's is almost an expectation that those kind of payments services are available to windows on went when choosing agents and wanting to mock appropriate. I think that's very much a characteristic of this card market. Thanks to things like after pay and things like that after pay actually sent me an apple pay card now so it's almost like i can pretty much have to pay anything in thing. Advertising just being one of those things vendors they haven't necessarily wanted the best marketing campaign they could possibly get cash flow is taught and it's good for the agent is good for the vendor as well. The cash is always taught when you transacting appropriate. You've got so many things going on and they'll be out of that pilot somewhere else and have a mechanism to do that. And market nails peppis built real estate as well we pounded. We launched by the expert around the financials those assad and obviously expense around property.

So it's an honor. Thank yo i gotta tell you. This is an amazing piece of work. You should be extremely proud of yourself for this. I don't need to tell you that. But i mean just from a reader. Just read this. And i've read it and i told you in the prerecording i got this. You guys fed ex this to me monday. I think got it. And i got it last night so i read it nine pm here. It is the next day. I finished it at one pm. Amazing book i just i love it. It made look. I'll be honest with you. It made me cry. I've never cried in book. it made me cry. Maybe he never cried. Okay not in a not in a book like this. I mean maybe in a fictional book. Or something yeah. It's an amazing story. Thank you so much. It's and you know it's been a journey. I think everyone of us has has a story. And i think you know just all of us are kind of on this journey. I think of. I mean for me. It's really it's really you know. So many people think oh. Is this a book about how you went from. Denny's waitress to leading a business. A billion dollar businesses like that's part of it but it's really a story of a girl who went from not believing herself to believing ourself and like not trusting myself to list like to learning how to hear my own gut instinct and learning how to trust it And just learning how to break through all that self doubt that. Hold us back so often and why i wrote. It is really like for a lot of years. I would get these. Dm's on instagram. Where people say. Oh i saw your your story Like hat like was it. Like did you just get lucky. Or because all that's out there is kinda like the headlines. And i realized oh if i don't share if i never share the real story behind the story like how it all happened years and years of rejection opposition and all those things than it's like so many other people out there that maybe are trying to launch their own dream or maybe they're trying to be a better leader or whatever it might be are gonna feel alone and their struggles if they're just reading like the highlight reel of people's success is online and so this is the first time ever but i just i took everything and kinda like throughout that filter out the window and just poured everything i had every personal and professional life lesson i've ever learned and my hope is just. It's absurd for anyone else out there who's really on that journey of like breaking through that self-doubt in and an on that journey to becoming the person they're created a bi. No i mean it's it's it's it's a prescription boards a recipe that you've kind of attacked life with anyway. What thing that's really kind of. Come out of this show and all these conversations when people ask me well. What are the biggest lessons that you've learned from talking to all these people and your book hits all of these these points that you know the prescription that is needed so that is in such lacking in everywhere we look. Is this authenticity. This transparency there's vulnerability which lends itself yet to be courageous. If you're gonna do those things because we suck adams human beings you know what we're bombarded with from our limiting beliefs are doubts. The pop culture the the social media now that just even feeds on that. I mean everybody deals with this head trash this limiting beliefs. These self doubt. It's a constant battle. You still battle with the today. I it with everybody that had on. The show has said that. And that's been a big moment for me on this show and a relief a sense of relief and reading. Your book is kind of the same feeling. That god is when you read it and because you're so authentic you're so transparent you're so vulnerable in this book and you have been in your whole. That's why you've been so successful and entrepreneur in in your brandon's accessible because of those things what do you think when you hear me say that that authenticity transparency vulnerably. That's the currency that's needed right. It is and it's scary for so many of us. I think that you know you look at so many of the studies out there that show. How like it's impossible to have a real human connection if you show up as your representative who you think people want you to be in the and the only real way to have a human connection as show like only parts parts the messy parts but a lot of people who know that awesome miss that connection of like our relationship with our customers also needs to be an authentic one our relationship with our teams and our employees also needs to be an authentic one and we ended up putting so much pressure on ourselves right social media your point to that too but we think all i a leader acts this way or we learn these things and we end up showing up is our own representative and then you know what i've learned and i don't wanna like jump too far ahead give anything up because there's so many crazy stories in the spot but wanted the leadership lessons i would say and life lessons frankly that i after which is three years of rejection a crazy story we finally got one shot on qvc. I can talk about only only if you want to but but you know being on. Kabc for united about a thousand shows live myself. And so i've met tens of thousands of entrepreneurs and brand founders and senior executives. That will go on the television for their company. And it's like all the years when i look back at. What is the commonality between the people that made it and those didn't because most people in the space they they get one shot on air and they never come back because they don't have the sales goal or maybe they they come back twice or three and then they're gone so i've seen thousands of people leave and then like what's the commonality between the ones that lasts and literally. It's not who's smarter. It's not who's more qualified or more accomplished. The people that will lasted were the ones that were the same off air in the green room as they were on here for better or worse like some were wild and crazy in quirky in somewhere very conservative and quiet and like but they were the same and it's because that live on air to one hundred million homes you can't fake authenticity and the only way for customers to connect as when you show up as you you fully are in the thing that one of the things i talk about in the book is In believe it is this lesson. I learn which is that like authenticity. Alone doesn't guarantee success in authenticity. Guaranty's failure
