Ty Fresh
craft breweries, they can't hold a candle to big beer when it comes to the lager game. They can make a hazy IPA that like ah a big brewery, like Anheuser-Busch, could never make a good hazy, but twin sales brewing, you wouldn't expect to make a good lager.
00:02:03
Think Fresh
can make a easy IP that, like, big brewery and
00:02:16
Think Fresh
No, you're totally right, dude.

00:03:29
Ty Fresh
I watched The Brutalist and there's a scene in the movie where guy gets at his friend's firm and the firm's firm and firm's firm is called like, let's just, I forget the name, but it was a Christian.
00:03:31
Think Fresh
And um there's a scene in the movie where the guy gets a job at his friend's furniture company. And the furniture company is called like, let's just I don't know I forget the name. But let's just say Christopher and sons.
00:03:45
Think Fresh
And he's like, Oh, when did you have kids?
00:03:45
Ty Fresh
He's like, oh, when did you have kids?
00:03:47
Think Fresh
He's like, I don't, I just made that up because people love a family business.
00:03:47
Ty Fresh
I don't. I just made that up because people love a guy. Wow. Brilliant.
00:03:52
Think Fresh
really Yeah, so don't ah don't trust any company that says and sons on it.
00:03:53
Ty Fresh
So don't try
00:03:58
Ty Fresh
This is the thing with modern marketing is that it's not about whether or not the story is true.
00:03:58
Think Fresh
This is the thing with modern marketing. It's not about whether or not the story is true.
00:04:04
Ty Fresh
Grain washing. It's about whether or not it's believable and you can connect with it.
00:04:06
Think Fresh
It's about whether or not it's believable
00:04:12
Ty Fresh
You want to connect with something, feel something.
00:04:12
Think Fresh
want to connect
00:04:15
Think Fresh
Right.
00:04:16
Ty Fresh
Right. I don't know.
00:04:17
Think Fresh
don't know. i um
00:04:18
Ty Fresh
Do you think the air of the video has gone away?
00:04:18
Think Fresh
Do you think the era of like big business has gone away yet?
00:04:21
Ty Fresh
Yes. i Has it gone away as we're slowly encroaching back into it or
00:04:22
Think Fresh
have we come Has it gone away and we're kind of cro slowly encroaching back into it? or What do you think? Are people still trying to shop small?
00:04:31
Ty Fresh
I mean, the tariff war is a war on big business, right?
00:04:31
Think Fresh
I mean, the tariff war is a war on big business, right?
00:04:34
Ty Fresh
In a way that is a taking money out of big businesses pockets.
00:04:35
Think Fresh
In way, that is. taking learning out of big business
00:04:39
Ty Fresh
Cause if you, you're, if your business is just making beer or making earrings at a farmer's market out of scrap, scrap tin cans, cans of tomato sauce, then you're, you're probably fine.
00:04:40
Think Fresh
you yourre if you're business making beer more making earrings at a farmer's market out scrap, scrap tin cans, cans of tomato sauce, then you're probably fine.
00:04:55
Ty Fresh
Like,
00:04:55
Think Fresh
Like,
00:04:57
Ty Fresh
I would think.
00:04:57
Think Fresh
um would
00:04:57
Ty Fresh
i mean i don't know.
00:04:58
Think Fresh
maybe
00:04:58
Ty Fresh
Maybe this is what Ben Shapiro's whole shtick is about bringing industry back to America and I'm just repeating that rhetoric.
00:04:59
Think Fresh
but then ah bringing industry back to americaathon Right. I mean, we are two subway enjoyers.
00:05:06
Ty Fresh
i mean, we are two enjoyers, you know, what we're talking about, but our team has a disperse small business for because would think Big Business would have more a cash cesspool.
00:05:09
Think Fresh
We don't know what the fuck we're talking about. But if I were to take a stab at it, Ty, I feel like this hurts the small business more because I would think the big businesses have more of a cash cesspool.
00:05:22
Ty Fresh
The cash cesspool is,
00:05:22
Think Fresh
You
Modern Fundraising Critique
00:05:24
Think Fresh
know what I'm saying?
00:05:24
Ty Fresh

00:05:25
Ty Fresh
Yeah, it's like we have
00:05:25
Think Fresh
Like they got the they got the big boy credit card to be like,
00:05:26
Ty Fresh
the be Right.
00:05:29
Think Fresh
we can take on ah bit of a loss initially.
00:05:29
Ty Fresh
They don't have the economies of scale to support them and when they need to raise capital.
00:05:34
Think Fresh
We can adjust our prices, but feel like the mom and pop, like they're not operating at scale. You what mean? They're like, I'm ordering five shirts and I'm, and I'm paying $20 for them. Now I got to pay $30 for them.
00:05:46
Ty Fresh
right they don't have the economies of scale to support them and they don't
00:05:46
Think Fresh
Right. You know, they don't, they don't, they can't just issue shares when they need to raise capital.
00:05:50
Ty Fresh
they don't they can't just issue shares when they need to raise capital like
00:05:54
Think Fresh
Like,
00:05:56
Ty Fresh
Big businesses have equity markets that they can just tap into.
00:05:56
Think Fresh
Big businesses have equity markets that they can just tap into.
00:06:01
Ty Fresh
And it's so weird that they can just, if they need money, Microsoft can just imagine new shares and sell them.
00:06:01
Think Fresh
And it's so weird that they can just, if they need money, Microsoft can just imagine new shares and sell them. It doesn't make any sense.
00:06:09
Ty Fresh
It doesn't make any sense.
00:06:11
Think Fresh
moment You can't just like imagine anything and then say, you want to buy my imagined thing?
00:06:11
Ty Fresh
Mom and Paul, you can't just like imagine anything and then say, do you want to buy my imagined thing? It doesn't make any sense when you really think about it.
00:06:18
Think Fresh
It doesn't make any sense when you really think about it.
00:06:20
Ty Fresh
They'll just do a share offering.
00:06:20
Think Fresh
They'll just do a share offering.
00:06:22
Ty Fresh
It's bullshit.
00:06:22
Think Fresh
It's bullshit.
00:06:24
Ty Fresh
yeah
00:06:24
Think Fresh
Dude, yeah. to raise money
00:06:24
Ty Fresh
Raise money. The mom and pop equivalent is a GoFundMe.
00:06:26

momop equivalent is a go fun
00:06:28
Ty Fresh
You'd never see Meta doing a GoFundMe.

Think Fresh
That's right, Ty.
00:06:32
Ty Fresh
That's right, Kyle.
00:06:33
Think Fresh
i ah I've seen GoFundMes, and I've donated to them, and I never will again, to be real honest with you, Ty, because the last GoFundMe I donated to was a local Chinatown restaurant that experienced a fire, and then it just closed anyway, like a month later.
00:06:35
Ty Fresh
I've seen GoFundMe and I've donated to that never wrote that. To be real honest with you, because last GoFundMe, I donated to a local restaurant.
00:06:46
Ty Fresh

00:07:00
Think Fresh
I don't know, dude. I feel like all that stuff is just racketeering.
00:07:01
Ty Fresh
I feel like all that stuff is just racketeering and seeing things like having a public offering, like an IPO.
00:07:04
Think Fresh
And same thing with having a public offering, like an IPO.
00:07:08
Ty Fresh

00:07:19
Think Fresh
don't think we need GoFundMe anymore either.

00:07:21
Think Fresh
I think what we need is we need just an angel investor platform where... it's only the big rich dog four They get to fail one failing business or indebted person whenever they want.

00:11:15
Think Fresh
I don't know what happened with that guy and why he was handpicked amongst all the other evil people 2012.
00:11:16
Ty Fresh
but
00:11:20
Ty Fresh
um so yeah
00:11:20
Think Fresh
amongst all the other kind of evil people in twenty twelve
00:11:21
Ty Fresh
Dude, first dude to get canceled. He was an early adopter of that.
00:11:24
Think Fresh
early Wow. Yeah, except it wasn't a Me Too movement.

00:11:47
Think Fresh
Life hasn't been changed by Jesus yet.
00:11:48
Ty Fresh
Life hasn't been changed by Yeezus yet. That's right.
00:11:51
Think Fresh
That's right. Nope.
00:11:54
Ty Fresh
Nobody was really even on Instagram back then. I think our mental health was probably better.
00:11:56
Think Fresh
our mental health
00:11:58
Ty Fresh
That's why we were preoccupied with Kony 2012, dude.
00:11:58
Think Fresh
that's why we were preoccupied
00:12:01
Ty Fresh
There was no feed.
00:12:02
Think Fresh
Right.
00:12:02
Ty Fresh
Right.
00:12:03
Think Fresh
There's nothing else to look at on the internet.
00:12:03
Ty Fresh
There's nothing else to look at on the internet.
00:12:06
Think Fresh
No, you're absolutely right, dude.
00:12:06
Ty Fresh
No, you're actually right.
00:12:08
Think Fresh
And um that's why the video was even more useful or effective, I guess, because like we were just using the toaster filter at that point.
00:12:08
Ty Fresh
And that's why the video was more useful. Because we were filter that point.
00:12:15
Think Fresh
That's where we were with our aesthetic sensibilities.
00:12:16
Ty Fresh
That's where we sensibility so like it's been so important for real CGI and you know the high contrast space, Robert B.
00:12:19
Think Fresh
So as soon as someone brings in the real CGI and you know the kind high contrast space photography, that's all I remember from it.
00:12:27
Ty Fresh
It was like a weird shot.
00:12:28
Think Fresh
There was like a weird shot of space. do you remember that?
00:12:30
Ty Fresh
Yeah.
00:12:30
Think Fresh
yeah
00:12:30
Ty Fresh
And then like a bunch of like, it wasn't four k footage, but I think it was shot on red cam.
00:12:32
Think Fresh
like wasn't 4k footage but he was shot on red cam it was like pretty good quality hell yeah dude and it kind of like maybe there's some nostalgia with the unicef commercials as well where you're just like you see that part of the world and you're like damn i should do something and then you never did because it was on tv so you're like this doesn't even i feel so detached from this commercial don't even i don't want to call this number i don't know what's happen last time
00:12:35
Ty Fresh
It was like pretty good quality. the And kind of like, maybe there was some nostalgia with you for that commercial. Where you just like see that part of the film.
00:12:48
Ty Fresh
never this doesn't so commercial call What was the last time a commercial got you to do anything, in anybody in their whole life, other than maybe those one hour long infomercials that your father falls asleep to on a weeknight?
00:12:59
Think Fresh
Anybody in their whole life, other than maybe those one hour long infomercials that father falls asleep to. I'll tell you what, Ty, when I saw the Kanye West Super Bowl commercial, that's when I really got my credit card out.
00:13:10
Ty Fresh
um you Yeah, that one is a little more influential than the slap job. That's right.
00:13:16
Think Fresh
That's right. um No swastika shirts were purchased in the making of this podcast.
00:13:18
Ty Fresh
no the but ah You just got some blanks instead.
00:13:22
Think Fresh
um Yeah, exactly.
00:13:25
Ty Fresh
Flip those Gildans in to think fresh merch.
00:13:27
Think Fresh
Hell yeah, dude. Link in the description. The subway logo, the is supposed to awesome, bro.
00:13:30
Ty Fresh
Dude, the Subway logo by the S is a swastika. Oh my gosh.
00:13:32
Think Fresh
Oh my god, bro.
00:13:36
Ty Fresh
We're just cooking over here.
00:13:36
Think Fresh
just cooking it We're just cooking over here.
00:13:37
Ty Fresh
just on It's a terrible idea.
00:13:38
Think Fresh
We're just spitballing.
00:13:39
Ty Fresh
We don't condone it at all. Or we do condone it. Excuse me.
00:13:43
Think Fresh
While I was laughing at that joke, I was really trying to rack my brain for a SS acronym for subway.
00:13:43
Ty Fresh
While I'm really trying to wrap up the S as acronym for Subway, I just couldn't do it.
00:13:49
Think Fresh
I just couldn't do it.
00:13:50
Ty Fresh
I think the ah Subway logo with two S's would be cool if it was in the Essence font.
00:13:50
Think Fresh
think the subway logo with two S's would be cool if it was in the essence box.
00:13:59
Think Fresh
That's awesome.
00:13:59
Ty Fresh
That's awesome.
00:14:02
Think Fresh
God damn it.
00:14:02
Ty Fresh
That's actually pretty sick, eh?
00:14:04
Think Fresh
Yeah, yeah.
00:14:04
Ty Fresh
Yeah. We should freak our our Shopify header and do that just kind of follow their patterns.
00:14:09
Think Fresh
But then when you call it ah a subway, it just sounds like you're a Mexican.
00:14:09
Ty Fresh
but then when you call it S Subway, it sounds like you're going to be next to me. That would be really fun.
00:14:14
Think Fresh
I would like to go to a subway.
00:14:17
Ty Fresh
Yeah, that's true.
00:14:17
Think Fresh
Yeah, that's true.
00:14:17
Ty Fresh
Especial. Especial modelo.
00:14:20
Think Fresh
That's kind of Yeah, it's kind of a funny quirk that anytime anything begins with an S, it also begins with an E in Spanish.
00:14:22
Ty Fresh
Yeah. h m
00:14:30
Think Fresh
Espanol.
00:14:30
Ty Fresh
Well, you are pretty linguistically and intellectual.
00:14:30
Think Fresh
Wow, you are all pretty linguistically intellectual.
Smoothies and Nostalgia
00:14:35
Think Fresh
who Thank you.
00:14:36
Ty Fresh
Thank you. I'm thinking a lot about how there's so little variety to language in day-to-day interaction.
00:14:38
Think Fresh
thinking a lot about how there's so little variety to dayto day
00:14:45
Ty Fresh
um Specifically, we've talked about this in length at good old Subway.
00:14:46
Think Fresh
specifically we've talked about
00:14:52
Ty Fresh
And I just wish that like if I was a sandwich artist, I would never, ever say cheese or toasted.
00:14:53
Think Fresh
just wish that like if i was a sandger i would cheese or toasted.
00:15:00
Ty Fresh
I would say when someone ordered to come up, hungry man walks up to me, doesn't make eye contact, looks up at the menu, spits off a mufaleta or a signature sub or whatever that words come out their mouth.
00:15:00
Think Fresh
I would say when someone wanted to come up, hungry man walks up to me, doesn't make high contact, looks up at the menu, spits off a Mubaleto or a signature sub whatever the words come with their mouth.
00:15:15
Ty Fresh
My response is to address whether they want it with cheese or if they want it toasted.
00:15:15
Think Fresh
My response is to address whether they want it with cheese or if they want it toasted. Mm-hmm. but
00:15:21
Ty Fresh
But I feel like there's an opportunity to have more flavor, pun intended, with that statement.
00:15:23
Think Fresh
feel like there's an opportunity to have more flavor Pun intended. Nice. Nice.
00:15:29
Ty Fresh
So I'm trying to figure out what are some other ways the San Juan Dior artists could just like make that more interesting without losing the, ah losing the essence of it.
00:15:29
Think Fresh
So I'm trying to figure out what are some other ways the sound artists could just like make that more interesting without losing the, losing the essence of it. Yeah.
00:15:40
Ty Fresh
Yeah.
00:15:40
Think Fresh
That was an interesting question there.
00:15:40
Ty Fresh
theres I mean, I've always, because there is two questions to yes or no questions.
00:15:41
Think Fresh
I mean, I've always struggled with this tie because there it's two questions. Two yes or no questions that are combined into one yes or no question.
00:15:49
Ty Fresh
They're combined. You're kind of applying to both at the same time.
00:15:51
Think Fresh
And so you're kind of replying to both at the same time. And I find it weird that you have to like like, is the sandwich artist subtly implying that it's only good to toast it if you have cheese?
00:15:55
Ty Fresh
And I find it weird to talk to you. Like, like, is the, Sandwich artists are supposedly buying that. It's only good if you have cheese.
00:16:04
Think Fresh
Like cheese melts, which is undeniably good thing.
00:16:04
Ty Fresh
Like, cheese melts. and Great property of cheese.
00:16:06
Think Fresh
Great property of cheese.
00:16:11
Think Fresh
Great property of cheese, I agree.
00:16:11
Ty Fresh
Great property.
00:16:12
Think Fresh
It's a one of cheese's best properties is its melt point.
00:16:13
Ty Fresh
Cheese has properties as it melts. mean Yeah.
00:16:16
Think Fresh
Mm-hmm. Yeah. people
00:16:18
Ty Fresh
oh
00:16:18
Think Fresh
It's got a really nice melt point.
00:16:18
Ty Fresh
It's got a really interesting melt point.
00:16:21
Think Fresh
um
00:16:22
Ty Fresh
Um...
00:16:23
Think Fresh
But yeah, i don't know.
00:16:23
Ty Fresh
but yeah i don't know
00:16:23
Think Fresh
How would you say it?
00:16:24
Ty Fresh
well i don't I don't mind that they ah summarize like a chat GPT.
00:16:25
Think Fresh
i don't mind that they summarize like a chat GPT.
00:16:29
Ty Fresh
They're summarizing the questions because it's lunch rush.
00:16:29
Think Fresh
They're summarizing the questions. It's lunch rush.
00:16:33
Ty Fresh
They got to get you you through this line.
00:16:34
Think Fresh
They're going to get you through this line.
00:16:35
Ty Fresh
but I just want a little bit more interesting.
00:16:35
Think Fresh
But I just want a little bit more interesting.
00:16:37
Ty Fresh
like
00:16:37
Think Fresh
Like cheese or toast.
00:16:38
Ty Fresh
Cheese or toasted. What if they said dairy or deep fried?
00:16:39
Think Fresh
What if they said dairy or deep fried? That is the same question.
00:16:42
Ty Fresh
That is the same question. You know?
00:16:44
Think Fresh
Dairy or deep fried? Mm-hmm. Okay. Cheddar or chuck it in the oven?
00:16:49
Ty Fresh
Cheddar or chuck it in the oven?

00:17:12
Ty Fresh
Cow it and cook it?
00:17:14
Think Fresh
i mean, there doesn't even be alliteration.
00:17:14
Ty Fresh
I mean, there doesn't even have alliteration. it could be You could ask even more flavorfully.
00:17:16
Think Fresh
could be You could ask even more flavor.
00:17:18
Ty Fresh
You could say... ah lot lather in cheese and then bathe in heat.
00:17:22
Think Fresh
Say lather in cheese then bathe in beef. Ooh, okay.
00:17:26
Ty Fresh
You know? you know
00:17:28
Think Fresh
Now we're getting poetic. I like that. Dress it up and it in the song.
00:17:29
Ty Fresh
Dress it up and huck it in the sauna. You know?
00:17:34
Think Fresh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:17:34
Ty Fresh
I don't know.
00:17:37
Think Fresh
i don't know You could say something along the lines of, like i don't know, strip it down and spank it.
00:17:37
Ty Fresh
Say something along the lines of like, I don't know, strip it down and spank it. o That's great.
00:17:43
Think Fresh
That's another one. That's great.
00:17:45
Ty Fresh
Yeah, dude.
00:17:45
Think Fresh
add a couple
00:17:45
Ty Fresh
Add a couple slices and then make it sweat. Yeah.
00:17:50
Think Fresh
um
00:17:52
Ty Fresh
Let's see here.
00:17:52
Think Fresh
Let's see here. a Add cheese and liquefy it.
00:17:55
Ty Fresh
Add cheese and liquefy it. Ooh.
00:17:59
Think Fresh
Yeah, I want to melt that.
00:18:00
Ty Fresh
Yeah, I want to melt that.
00:18:01
Think Fresh
Yeah, dude. Melt it down.
00:18:02
Ty Fresh
They should just say melted cheese.
00:18:02
Think Fresh
They should just melted cheese.
00:18:04
Ty Fresh
Just get to the point.
00:18:04
Think Fresh
Just get to the point. Yeah.
00:18:05
Ty Fresh
Yeah.
00:18:06
Think Fresh
We'd like some melted cheese.
00:18:06
Ty Fresh
It's like some melted cheese.
00:18:07
Think Fresh
Because that means you need cheese and you need to cook it.
00:18:08
Ty Fresh
Because that means you need cheese and you need to cook it.
00:18:12
Think Fresh
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I guess, okay, if I were to put myself in the artist's shoes, which is a dangerous place to be, but if I were to think about like why they would say cheese and toasted, I think it's not just the cheese melting, but it's also the step after that you toast.
00:18:14
Ty Fresh
guess I okay, if I were to do myself and first, it be dangerous to me. But, uh, why I think it's not just sheet melting, but it's also the step after that you post.
00:18:31
Think Fresh
You never toast with the veggies, at least by default.
00:18:31
Ty Fresh
You never post the editing, at least by people. Mm-hmm.
00:18:34
Think Fresh
So, yeah, So it's like, the next I'm letting you know the next two steps.
00:18:34
Ty Fresh
That's your freak. Yeah, yeah, Like, the next, I'm letting you know what I'm doing.
00:18:38
Think Fresh
It's cheese and then it's toasted.
00:18:39
Ty Fresh
It's G's then it's the list. Right. So it's more of a table of contents than a question.
00:18:41
Think Fresh
so it's more for the table but Right.
00:18:44
Ty Fresh
Right.
00:18:45
Think Fresh
It's like I'm letting you get two steps ahead here.
00:18:45
Ty Fresh
I'm letting you get a few steps ahead. Mm-hmm. It's a mouthful. Yeah.
00:18:49
Think Fresh
Yeah, but it really just grinds my gears.
00:18:49
Ty Fresh
but like
00:18:50
Think Fresh
ti because yeah It puts it on the ah customer to say if if it's not a straight yes, it's got it's got to be a more complicated answer.
00:18:53
Ty Fresh
story if sort of
00:18:57
Think Fresh
Like yes to the cheese, no to the toast or no to the cheese.
00:18:58
Ty Fresh
yes
00:19:03
Think Fresh
Yes to the toast.
00:19:04
Ty Fresh
so Either way you are forced to clarify and you have to say more than two words.
00:19:05
Think Fresh
either way you are for
00:19:09
Think Fresh
and you have to say more than
00:19:11
Ty Fresh
If I said yes, no, would that make sense to a sandwich artist?
00:19:11
Think Fresh
i said yes so that makes sense but sammon earnest is probably not youre gonna let his
00:19:14
Ty Fresh
is Probably not, even though that is a direct answer of the question.
00:19:16
Think Fresh
ah Yeah, i'm I'm not sure if that would help.
00:19:18
Ty Fresh
Yeah. Yes, no.
00:19:20
Think Fresh
she are toas no
00:19:21
Ty Fresh
Cheese or toasted? Yes, no.

00:20:00
Think Fresh
I'm trying to figure out my stance on protein. And I think it's a little fruitier than everybody else is.
00:20:05
Ty Fresh
And I think it's a little fruitier than everybody else's. Fruitier?
00:20:09
Think Fresh
Fruitier stance on protein.
