0:00 [Music] Welcome back to another episode of Wow, how'd you do that? That's Tony Tran. The Careful Boys. Tony Tran. Is that what he sounds like? So, uh, honestly, what are some of you guys' favorite podcasts that you listen to? Ooh. Oh. Oh, just kidding. News. Shut your up, dude. I actually when I wake up or if I'm going to take a going to sleep or something, I literally go on my subscribe list and the first thing that always pops JK News. I always That's cool. You listen to us honestly. Yeah. He's probably just admire his own edits. He's like, "God damn, that that swipe left was sick." So, I'll watch it because there's I'm not always listening to the conversations all the time when I'm in there. So, when I'm like, "Oh, a new one came out." And I I don't edit it all the
0:51 time. It's my team that edits it. So, I like to watch it just to see like how it is. Yeah. And then I next thing you know, I'm like three videos like deep. I'm like, "Oh, this is something that I like watching." Yeah. Yeah, for sure. There's a couple I like. So, I like uh for Joe Rogan, I have specific ones I realized. Um I like when he interviews fighters. Mhm. Um so, I think in the fight game cuz he's a huge like student of the history and all that stuff. So, it's really interesting and he asks good questions and I like random obscure ones. I notice when he has like famous people on, I don't really care about those like celebrities. Yeah. Like I'm like I don't really care about when he interviews those guys, but when he has like random like this guy followed deer for 4 years or whatever. Like just random ████ like that. It's so interesting. I like those. Um the Jackson podcast with Quinton Jackson.
1:41 That one's ████ hilarious. What's that about? Quinton Jackson has a podcast. MMA podcast. Yeah. And it's like why you just They're our main competitors. They kill us. They crush us, dude. But you have a ████ UFC champion there. So, it's just like, yeah, but he's ████ hilarious. He's the funniest dude alive. He's so good. Um, I like Chris Williamson. I feel like I'm feel like I'm smart just by listening to him. Who do you like that goes on his podcast? Um, well, I like how he prepares. Mhm. The questions he ask is really So, his questions are always good. I like him. I also listen to the diary of a CEO guy every now and then. Uh, and then one that I like too is uh Ice Coffee Hour actually with Graham Stefen cuz like I feel like some guys are really really smart, but what I like on their take is they have like a very layman's really relatable approach to
2:32 things. So like even though like Graham Stefen's like a multi multi multi-millionaire himself, he asks questions not like he's at their level already. He's just extracting more information in a very digestible way. I like hosts like that, which I think is very cool. He's a great host. Him and his buddy that does it. I like uh Duncan Trussell's Family Hour. Yeah, you like that. Tiff loves that. So, because it's the way that he formats it. It's like there's a silly ass intro that he writes and it's always like a random song or something he wrote or whatever, right? Cuz he's a he's a comedian. So he would really prep his intros really well and then he goes into like the in like the real intro which is like oh today we have this guest blah blah blah blah and then start the podcast. I've been liking um Sean Ryan cuz ever since the remote viewers and then I like his um well cuz
3:22 he has a lot of government and veterans and then the inside stories of their world. He recently had the um this lady uh Lindy Lee on and she was Biden's she's like a major campaign uh person like a campaign manager or something for the Democratic party and then she was kind of the first to whistleblow like his condition and then now she actually works for the Trump campaign. Wow. So, she switched sides and then um I mean I don't know how honest, you know, it's like yeah, you're you're working for Trump, so obviously you're going to say different ████ right? But I'm just fascinated by that world and the insiders of that world telling us stuff about it. Yeah. His some of the special ops guys he has on the craziest stories and those podcasts are like four hours long, dude.
4:12 And they're like so fascinating. I can't we can't turn that show off. Sean Ryan. Sean Ryan. He himself is a Navy Seal and former CIA contractor. I like the way he asked questions and he I remember when he was on the Rogan podcast, he just kept asking Rogan. Before Before we start, I did get you. Yeah. And he has a little gift for everyone all. Yeah. He always has a cool and then he opens it and he's like, "Oh, gummy bears. I love these, man. I love It's like a dude with like he's just tatted the ████ up. Just ████ killed like a million people and he goes, I always wanted to try these. Thank you. I love gummy worms. And then recently he's been giving out ████ sigs and ████ like the the gun. I'm like, "What the f███?" On the show, I want a free sig. That's crazy. What about you, Anthony? I've been listening to Gavin Newsome a lot for
5:04 real. ████ no. Have you guys seen that one with uh with Charlie Ker? See certain clips? I was certain clips. Yeah. I was super surprised when he uh he he kind of flip-fpped on the whole trans issue. Yep. Interesting. Didn't you say he was trying to go Republican though? No, I don't I didn't I don't I didn't say that. Tell somebody about it and they were watching his stuff and they're saying like, "Oh, I think he's like making a shift to be more Well, I think Charlie's too smart for him. So he can get him to flip-flop without Gavin even knowing what the hell's happening and making him contradict himself. He's just asking questions. That guy Charlie Kirk, he's a really good speaker. That dude, he's really persuasive. He's and he's like fast. He's a very logical like almost feels like a former high school debate team type dude. Yeah. Like that's his wheelhouse. Yeah. Like I I used to
5:54 not like him. Yeah. But I like him now. I think um the the way that he talks to college students now it's um it's a lot nicer. Like before it, dude, it it was just like a slam dunk, ████ you, like kind of like smug ████ And now it seems like he genuinely cares about the future of America and he wants to teach and the approach comes from a more like brotherly figure cuz he probably realized that like when he would be more relatable or like nicer when he talks to people, he's like, "Oh, this is a better way to get them to think like what I'm thinking." Annie almost tries to help get the answer out from the person. Before he's just like these are the answers, but then it'll be like like now it'll be like, "Oh, you think it's like cool to just come on colleges and like dunk on all of us?" And he goes, "But
6:44 are you guys also voters?" So I'm talking to voters, you know? So it's like it's like he reframes it. Yeah. He reframes it and then oh fine, I see what you're saying. Y makes a lot of good. He'll ask a lot of questions in order, like you said, to extract like an understanding versus like just like throwing out information that you can't come to yourself so you won't learn from it or appreciate it. Yeah. Like here are my stats and you shut the ████ up versus like, well, I'll ask you questions and then we'll reach a conclusion together. I I find myself um one ramping up into like enjoying podcasts a little bit more. I think sometimes like I can get a little like ADHD on it and just like kind of like suddenly be I want to be entertained by something else because sometimes podcasting is like I think that I'm being efficient if I'm like extracting and learning information versus just hearing conversation and being entertained by it. There's a
7:35 difference. Yeah. So it's like it's hard for me to just be like I want to hear some people talk today. I a lot of times I just want to either be entertained something visual or I want to learn something. Oh, you know what my ████ Asian tiger dad style thing I do to myself is that that looks like some chastising on some Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I think for I have to do two learnings before I do an enjoyable one. That's probably good. Oh, that's so Okay, I'll listen to two Bigger Pockets and then Bigger Pockets. Then I earned myself a Quinton Jackson one. I would never used to watch the financial ones, but Tiff would always like have it on really. And then like Tiff is always watching Bigger Pockets. Wow. Uh I would always watch the Dave Ramsey. I would watch Dave Ramsey. Um she'd watch Bigger Pockets and then we
8:26 started watching like sometimes we watch Ice Coffee Hour too. We've been watching the Caleb Hammer show. Have you seen that one? Oh, that guy. The the one that looks at your debt. I used to can't I used to like think he was so mean and like so ████ up but then like I know a part of the show is like him getting these people who are just like what are you doing but and also too it's like he does have to talk to these people this way when he's like breaking their financials cuz he he'll break down a basic principle of like you're not making enough money for what you're spending like that's like the principle across the board and it's like he has to reframe that over and over and over to these people and they're just like what are you talking about like this is no problem or they'll like rationalize it, right? And it's just interesting to see how he kind of like talks people off the ledge with certain situations and hopefully he can get them to change cuz like where they come on to the show like yeah they want
9:17 to change but it seems like they're not ready for change yet so he's like berating them for like an hour but uh I like that show. Um, but Bigger Pockets I really like the most cuz it's like I used to listen to I used to listen to it the most when it was uh Brandon Turner and then the the other guy David Green, but they both left. But they have a lot of other good guys. So it's about real estate but all kinds though like multifamily, Airbnb, apartment complex, the economy, interest rates, lending, like all the different aspects of so you really like learn. Wow. And then like they interview a ton of people that do like the FIRE method where they just like save a bunch of money and they retire like early by the time like they're 40 or 50 or whatever. And then you just hear like their journey and you keep hearing the same like talking points of like yeah we just got to get out there work together me and my wife to go out there and start like thinking
10:09 of like what you said about the in the June be video where you're like oh yeah like take manners in our own hands and let's actually see what we could do as a family and not worry about like making money in a traditional like 9 to5. Yeah. So, it's cool to see that because it's like hearing that, hearing other people talk about over and over and over again, you're like, "Okay, cool." Because getting into is pretty daunting. It's like process, right? Like you think the first big purchase is usually a car. Then the next one, it's like a house and you have all this like terms you never heard of. And then they have people on they're like, "Oh, I own 30 apartment complexes, but I started with one." Yeah. And you're like, "What the hell? That's ████ crazy." You just think they're just random like the rich people in the world. Then you hear their story and you're like, "Oh s███." It's like actually just step by step. It's achievable for sure. Every I used to read the forms on Bigger Pockets. Yeah. See thems
10:59 There was this one dude, his name is Noah Kagan or something. Oh yeah, he's good. Yeah, he's dope. And he would just interview like different entrepreneurs and just hear and their story. Like those are always really cool, especially when you feel like you're like stuck in a rut and you're like, I don't know what if I'm doing the right thing or whatever. So you listen to these and you're like, "Okay, cool." It helps you kind of like get the mindset right for the week. But those are the ones I like. There's a lot of the people in the finance space or like the self help kind of but for f like money. Yeah. And then after a while um it started to get too redundant for me. Yeah. And I think it's passing out. Yeah. Like it's the same stuff, right? Like you'll start to hear the same information. You can also start to predict what they're going to say next. But it makes a lot of sense because most people are at a certain point and then once in a while I'll find an obscure like podcast and then they're
11:51 getting really nerdy about this one little thing in marketing or like this one little thing in investing and I'm like deep diving into that but then it's only got like a thousand views cuz no one really like cares about it. It's like early adopter type of thing where there's some gold, but nobody knows about it yet until they do and then it's just I bet some of the more in-depth stuff requires a certain level of understanding to even nerd out about like that kind of stuff. It's like it's like a deep dive, right? Yeah. I've been hearing a lot about AI for sure on like different podcasts that that's a common theme. What's another one? Like um health ████ and like cuz finances it's kind of like the same, you know? It can only you can only learn the same lesson so many times. It's kind of like how everyone says just stick to the basics and you'll be okay. And that's what I noticed about every every endeavor like fitness and health, right? Like it's like yeah, you got to just sleep, eat,
12:44 work out, and like how much more can you talk about the same thing, but they find a very interesting angle no matter what to do it. But I think I'm like at this point where that's a 2 threeh hour podcast, bro. Like I I see myself skipping skipping skipping and then I'm like, "Okay, there's nothing new." Mhm. Sometimes I'll listen to podcasts on like 1.5x. Yeah, I do that too. So So I could just get the information out. Yeah. I want to know if I'm like going to submit myself to like this entire conversation. Yeah. You know what's a random one? Because I'll be taking like long drives with like Nina through, you know, from Vegas to LA and vice versa. She really likes listening to Crime Junkies. Hell yeah. What is that? It's just like these it's like these two girls, right? And they just talk about random crime stories.
13:34 Sometimes solved, sometimes unsolved. And it basically kind of came off, I feel like, of um cereal. Okay. Like serial cereal was so good, dude. Egg was what's that about? They followed this one. It was a NPR podcast and they follow this one mysterious case where there was a lot of like questions around it and they follow this Korean girl who was murdered by her what they think is her ex-boyfriend but when you go into the story you realize like oh we at the end of it you're like I don't know who the ████ did it there's holes everywhere and she investigates every aspect found her body in a forest or whatever. Yeah. Every episode they do is like a deep dive into the case or like a aspect of the case, right? But it was unsolved at the time but became such a viral kind of like first of its kind. It was like one of the first big big like narrative podcasts. Yeah. And then because of it
14:25 though like they like um legally like went right back into the case. They opened things up like the public demanded more answers. So like or took the case or some ████ right? The interest huge kind of national. And didn't the guy get released from prison? I think so. because they found out he was actually innocent or whatever. But then that guy was in prison for like 20 years. So crazy. But because of the podcast, they were finally able to like the reasonable doubt of like if he actually did it or not. That's pretty sick. Oh, it's so cool. Through it there like different podcasts. There's a number of them that have like crime related stuff, but Crime Junkies is a very popular one as well, and they'll do similar stuff. It's not as long. It's not like ████ 12 episodes to talk about one thing. It might be one episode to talk about. Let me just tell you about this really really interesting crime story that happened. And then there was a recent one uh about um some bodies that were allegedly like uh
15:16 buried in this one area and like they they had done like two mini excavations that like proved that like oh we couldn't find anything and there's not enough budget so we're probably going to have to like close this case for for good. um there's no funding and then the city wants to like build infrastructure and other things on this area which made it so that people who felt pressure and wanted to like feel fight and appeal like what that situation was to like see if there was evidence of like those bodies there. They like made a lot of noise through these podcasts and stuff and said, "Hey, you guys are going to the city's going to go and and make it so we'll never be able to check it again." like we need to like garner enough like you know I guess just press in general to make sure that they can go in for one final excavation with enough money to like really deep dive because more evidence is just pointed to this like 50-year-old case that was unsolved
16:06 and literally like a month ago or a couple weeks ago they were like all right we're going to go into like one last excavation for it. So there's like ongoing updates of like different things. I mean, I think that it's still they're still working on it, still digging and stuff, but like it's it's crazy to like hear of unsolved cases cuz it was about this dude who like would kidnap like girls from like a baseball game or something like that and like they were missing and then like next thing you know that's just an unsolved murder from like 50 years ago and then like 10 years later suddenly like the same kind of like uh MMO pops up and the same kind of description of the same kind of guy that was drawn that was never found comes up and then And it turns out like the guy who was like exonerated suddenly is becomes prime suspect number one again. But you got to find a legal way to make it so that they can be a suspect for a different reason
16:56 because you can't on some like double jeopardy talk. You can't like bring that and it just gets so exciting and interesting because you're like you want justice for this family and the last living member who's like now 90 the parents who like just need some sort of peace before they die. It's like they just want to know like what happened to their daughters like 50 years ago type stuff. Just imagine like not knowing where they are. No peace. It's it's I mean it's obviously tragic, but it's like really interesting to hear about these details and like just be caught up through a story of a crime. It's really fun. Thank God for police databases, man. Crime pocket. I I stopped listening to a lot of crime podcast cuz it would get super heavy and it would be like what you would say Joe like you kind of you know the story already before you hear it and that's when you go like I think I'm listening to ████ too much. You know what I shifted towards lately is audiobooks
17:47 though. I think that's like cuz a lot of podcasts get their info from these books and I'm like I'm just going to go straight to the source. I used to binge a lot of like things like that cuz it it was like really interesting but then I realized it also takes effect of your world view. So if you're thinking about killing every ████ day, you know what I mean? Like it's interesting but then like it kind of makes your world a little dark. Dude, when I'm listening or watching a ton of like like ████ up content like that, whether it's like a lot of crime stuff, documentary, I'll be working with clients and I just will bring it up cuz it's on my mind all the time and I'll just keep doing that all day and then I'm like, yo, I got to stop talking about murder with like my friends and my clients. Yeah, that's why I don't watch those things either cuz I'm like, yeah, cuz it does like it stews in your brain. Yeah, I want a
18:37 balance of like, yo, man, I want to watch a golden retriever chase its own tail. Awesome. And then a ████ turtle and a rabbit making friends. I love that. Like, if you're trying to listen to some fun ████ what do you listen to? Fun ████ right now. Um, you want to be entertained? I mean, I I I'm always fashion fascinated by like things like ancient aliens and conspiracies. Like, that's like never not going to hit. Yeah, like when you when you talk about like ancient civilizations or like uh people that had like crazy, you know, uh alien or psychedelic experiences or or on some like other crazy weird frequency stuff like that stuff's always really entertaining. I got into this whole thing with uh damn what's that black guy's name? Um who if it's not Graham Hancock, it's this other guy who has like like he was on Andrew Schultz Neil.
19:28 No, Billy Carson. Billy Carson. Billy Carson pods. There was a period where I was listening his stuff and I was like, "This is insane." I think it was right after the Terrence Howard phase. Wait, he he got Terrence He got Terren Howard, right, recently by this dude named Wes Huff? Wes Yeah. Billy Carson and Terren Howard were on a podcast. No, no, no. Like Like you know how Terrence Howard got checked by a scientist? Neil Grass Tyson, right? Yeah. Well, by a lot of other scientists. They did like a debate, I think. Yeah. Yeah. And then well um Billy Carson with his whole like um understanding of the ancient world, his idea of Christianity, all that got checked by a debater that is like he can read ancient texts. He went through all he published it and then like he was
20:18 like actually you're wrong. And then like Billy Carson didn't have any sources. And when he did try to pull sources, the Wes Huff guy goes, "Well, yeah, that source that you're talking about, it's a forgery and this is the reason why." So, a lot of his beliefs were like taken down. Yeah, I heard about that. But, I kind of want to see that. At the end of the day, if you look at Billy Carson as a great sci-fi fiction and like the worldbuilder, ████ entertainment, dude. I think and I think that's like the pocket that I enjoy in those random moments that I do listen to podcast because like I said it's like it feels like education but it's high level entertainment. Yeah. which is exactly what JK knew.
