WSO Podcast (Episode 8) Transcript:

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:00:04] It. Hello and welcome. I'm Patrick Curtis, chief monkey of Wall Street Oasis, and this is monkey to millions. A show where you get a front row seat as I mentor young students and professionals to try and help them break into their dream jobs in the first cohort. You'll meet four students, all preparing for intense job interviews while trying to also balance a personal life and schoolwork. The goal of this show is to shine a light on the struggles of trying to break into competitive positions with a non-traditional background and to give you a roadmap for your own success. My hope is that as you get to know these four impressive students, you're inspired to dream big. Remember, these are real people, and this is their true story. Let's get to it. In this episode, we catch up with Victor the same day after he finishes up his Series seven top off exam after a gruelling few months of studying. Listen to hear why he's headed to Hawaii for a few months and the advice I give him in his ever shifting plans. Enjoy. Ok, Victor, we were just talking offline. Why don't you give the listeners a little update on what's going on with you? Just wait, what exams did you just take today?

Victor: [00:01:34] So I took a seven top off today and I saw it Monday.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:01:39] So it was a seven top off my charter.

Victor: [00:01:42] Oh yes, it was much harder, but I'm not going to lie. I was prepping for the passport, so I kind of finished like three weeks ahead of the schedule. So I've been just like a final, the final. I try to get my hands on any kind of prep material. So perfect really prepares you very well for it. Great. I think that material that actress study was light-hearted and observant, to be honest.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:02:07] Ok. And then so you did see top off Series seven

Victor: [00:02:11] And I got almost six to six left, and that is due on January 20. When do you hear?

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:02:15] Do you hear immediately that you passed the essay?

Victor: [00:02:17] They give you like a little sign pass or fail? They never give you the score. Yeah. I said, pass. I'm like, OK, I never know what I got wrong.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:02:27] Ok, so you have a few more? And then so tell me a little bit about let's the listeners in on some updates because things have shifted yet again for you. Pretty dramatically, so go ahead.

Victor: [00:02:39] So I was supposed to be mobilized by the end of March, by the end of February, which I shared with the listener. So last time we checked in, I got an email last week that, hey, you know, scratch that, you're not being mobilized. So we got past six month. Everything was kind of, you know, you know, thank you very much for doing everything, but you're not being mobilized. You might get back on that, and that is not for sure.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:03:05] So in other words, yeah, you're not being mobilized, you're not being forced to move anywhere you're going to have this year to work,

Victor: [00:03:13] To work on Wall Street or program

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:03:16] To work on Wall Street courses. But yeah, I work at Fidelity, correct? And in their advisory financial advisor program, right? And so once you pass these exams, is it kind of like next year when you actually like start working, working with like an adviser?

Victor: [00:03:31] So quick update. I have still do my 20 days of training form because I'm still the reserve that has nothing to do with mobilize. I have to still get that done. Yeah, so but I finished all my drilling for the end of the year. Because of all this, I don't have to do anything other than that. Most likely, once I take the six to six, which is the last leg of the exam, but I need to take note to do my role. I'll be back by March and there's some kind of training for my role in that apartment. It's like around four to five weeks. Some I'm getting like an early April. I'll start, you know?

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:04:05] Ok, so what are you doing from January through March?

Victor: [00:04:08] So I'm going to be most lucky in Hawaii. I have to go. That's life for me. Yes, probably surfing and then work, by the way. I hope nobody's non-military. Yeah.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:04:21] So you're going to be in Hawaii just doing training, and that's exactly OK. Cool.

Victor: [00:04:28] So I'll be in California a couple of days and hopefully back towards the middle of January. I'll fly to white, finish that and come back end of February, March.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:04:35] Got it. And so what do you have to do in this training? Like what is it? What type of stuff is it?

Victor: [00:04:40] Really? Have no idea. It's Hawaii. I'm going to sign me up. You know, it's 20 29 days, 30 days, something like that. I don't exactly know, but I told my mom, I'm glad, you know, just sign me up anything. Know, I'll go,

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:04:53] Ok, and so you're doing that. You talk to Fidelity. They're cool with you. Starting in March. April. Yes. Very good, so. And I assume the military pays for everything for your

Victor: [00:05:03] Four day fat training. Yes, they do the

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:05:05] Trip and everything. That's good. Cool, man. Well, it sounds like it is going to be a fun experience. Um, so, yeah, what can you do in the meantime, I guess you have some time once you pass these exams?

Victor: [00:05:18] I'm going to I'm going to work on what I left up with the Wall Street system excel. So I'm still

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:05:26] Modelling. Ok, yeah. What about the. What about kind of just starting? I know you have the job and everything. What about starting to build some of the network? You're going to stay in salt in Salt Lake

Victor: [00:05:38] For at least a year. Eventually, I want to transfer to branch in California. Yeah. So at least a year, I'm going to be here. I have to be my role in order transfer.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:05:47] Yeah. Ok, so. I mean, maybe it makes sense to keep building up relationships. Some people in Cali, Yes, California, whether it's L.a. or San Francisco or wherever you want to be,

Victor: [00:05:58] You want, I'm going to go because I'm going to go set up my friend's house for this, the last exam, because I want to have the kids over for many years at Christmas and all that and 25 days because I was told that it's kind of hard, not because it has a lot more calculations. It's more of like a lawyer's vote that and lawyers are nothing against lawyers and they have to make everything complicated. So they told me to take it easy, all the regulations and everything. So I want to have like environment study there. So I'm going to go like this maybe half a day or something like that, drive to the branches, just maybe call beforehand and, you know, popping for like 10, 15 minutes of coffee so I can talk to.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:06:35] Where is this? Where is this in California?

Victor: [00:06:38] They have the Huntington Beach area. They have in L.A. area.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:06:42] So you're going to come down here to study and stuff.

Victor: [00:06:44] You said yes, said my friend's house study, for example,

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:06:47] Is going to be surfing the whole time. Aren't you asking

Victor: [00:06:49] Harlan? I can surf my free time so it has to be about six, seven o'clock or late afternoon so I ever want to sell by day? So cool.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:06:57] Well, that'll be good. So yeah, I think you'd just be smart to start building those relationships. Have you done that at all with people in L.A. or

Victor: [00:07:06] On the phone, on the phone for you, like a financial advisors and investment consultant, which is the role I'm looking to transfer, hopefully about

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:07:14] An investment consultant. What is that?

Victor: [00:07:16] It is basically one up role what I'm doing right now. Little better hours above the fact that I'm doing buddies in branch and it's far more client facing. Ok, then what kind of like a back office job that I'm doing kind of thing?

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:07:32] Yeah. So the financial advisory role, you're really kind of just supporting the investment consultant is that,

Victor: [00:07:36] Yes, pretty much. Yes, I would say understanding. Yes.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:07:41] Yeah, well, hopefully with the training also, you can really get a feel of that stuff. Well, maybe in this networking, you can chat with them and they'll give you a better feel. Yes, that's. Coleman, well, yeah, I would do that and also just talk with other people in other finance related fields in the L.a. area just to start building up the network to be like, I'm probably going to be here in a year or two, just trying to meet people, understand what you do, not looking for anything right now. I have a job with fidelity and blah. I think that's this is the best time to really be networking when you don't need anything, right? Yes, of course. So, you know, just building up genuine relationships and friends. And I mean, it'll be nice when you go there too. Maybe they'll be like friends that you can go out with and stuff.

Victor: [00:08:22] Yeah, that's the kind of goal. I have a lot of money, so I want to kind of whatever I can squeeze in, like maybe, you know, should have an call up and say, Hey, do you want me to you? That's perfect. That's the yeah, that's the update, that's it, that's it. I'm glad it's over, I'm not going to lie. It's been a month of like a Monday through Sunday study. I did not really take a break, which is what I finished way earlier.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:08:47] So how many hours did you put in?

Victor: [00:08:51] I actually had it, but I have to take it off because they do about 50 60 everything as you see it. Nothing is back there. Everything is clean because they have the camera check. I did because virtual. Yeah, so I have to check everything. So I think I'm not a couple of hundred forty five hours. It's a lot. Yeah. So which brings me to the SWC program I am going to. If I can do this, I can do

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:09:18] That too, actually. Yeah, daily modelling package. You can probably get done in like if you do it really well, probably 50 to 60 hours if you're

Victor: [00:09:26] I want to master it, so I want to be master.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:09:28] So I want you. You can watch a lot of it. That's like the theory parts you can watch at one point five times speed. If you already kind of are familiar with the material and then take your time with the actual exercises and the modelling so that that's what you really want to keep prepping on.

Victor: [00:09:41] Cool. That's a good idea.

Patrick (CEO of WSO):  [00:09:45] Yemen will congrats on that, I don't think we need to keep you or talk more, I think you kind of know what you're doing, but yeah, just take advantage of these few months. I will even if you're In Hawaii, if it's not crazy, like you may not get this time for a while, maybe fidelity will be more rigorous than you think. So don't assume

Victor: [00:10:02] Now I'm going to try this like a setup and get four or five calls, maybe three to five calls to kind of check in with people. Talk to them about like, like you said

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:10:09] About the five calls, What do you mean? Like, like a weekly

Victor: [00:10:12] Like I sent an email

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:10:14] To my email. You may have to actually, I mean, and what about your actual network on LinkedIn? How have you been requesting LinkedIn? I know you've been studying,

Victor: [00:10:21] But had you been done since, like end of October that I started doing This? You might want to.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:10:27] Now you have a little bit of time. You might want to just make it a daily habit to reach out to, like just to connection request of like 20 people or have like one day where you request one hundred people just to just literally you could just do it in an hour, one hour a

Victor: [00:10:43] Week. Yeah, it's very doable and a quick question, I should I like A.. Should email based on Georgetown or military or. Yeah. You start with

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:10:52] That, but then branch out like look at L.A. region, start with L.A. and just connect with all like consultants investing in consultants. Financial advisers there. Connect with traders there. Connect with anybody in like banking their corporate finance. Anything. Anybody in corporate finance there because they're all. It's all interconnected. So if then you really know the finance community well in L.A., it's going to serve you really well when you're trying to transfer there.

Victor: [00:11:16] Perfect, perfect. And one last thing I have to kind of emphasize this I went to school and I love the school. I went to a major international finance and I think I did well. But this month of study in C and SE seven taught me far more than I need to know about securities industry. I have investment banking works than anything else that I've ever done on my own, which is was awesome. Everybody was complaining and kind of like, I don't like this.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:11:41] A lot of theory, though. I mean, when you take that stuff, you'll be like, Oh, this is practical. This is what I'm going to do on the job for like banking and for like finance, like especially the Excel modelling that's applicable to like so many careers. If you're good in Excel, it helps you everywhere, even if you're a start up entrepreneur and you need to like run scenarios and stuff like that. So, yeah, definitely run through that. And then, yeah, please. Like, I don't know, choose something on your calendar. I don't know. Make it like a Thursday morning from seven to eight a.m. or eight to nine a.m.

Victor: [00:12:12] Just requesting,

Patrick (CEO of WSO):  [00:12:13] Yeah, I just request 100 people on LinkedIn and be like, Hey, I'd love to grab some time to chat just to keep that funnel building. Because if you do that, it's really what the habits you're building consistently. Week in, week out is what's going to eventually make a, you know, the big gains. Right, right? You know, it's not. And you had this hit with fidelity within pretty fast when you started doing that week. Like so why? But like you could other opportunities could open up for you. So like maybe in a year when you're ready to transfer with fidelity, maybe there's a much better job waiting for you.

Victor: [00:12:44] Awesome. No, no. I'm there with you. I'm like, Why are you telling me? Because I never expected I was working like three four jobs in between trying to do this. I have one job and it's just like a much better and much better opportunity. So, yeah,

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:12:56] So like from there, like, I just would encourage you not to like see it as a trend. Like as a time when you need it, right? So now you have you're in a really good spot. This is the time like where it's so easy to network and then people actually are more willing to talk to you

Victor: [00:13:10] Because I'm not looking for a job now

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:13:12] Looking for anything. You just really genuinely building connections and wanting to understand. You want to understand because you don't really know. And I don't know Allah that well, you don't really know. Like, what are the big industries in L.A. or where like the finance jobs in L.A., where the best finance jobs in L.A.? Is there some really cool start up there that has like a crop fin or crop dev or corporate finance position that would be

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:13:33] Amazing to be at?

Victor: [00:13:36] I'll reach out and I'll just start with the military in Georgetown and then reach out to anybody in the West Coast military, Georgetown or just Georgetown and military anywhere in the world. And that but you know, if there's a big enough group in L.A. to do those but then hit anybody in finance, any finance roles in L.A.,

Victor: [00:13:54] Ok? And once they're accepted, I'm just going to shoot the a five 10. Phone call first. And if they yeah.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:13:59] And then put the right inbox reminder on it. So you're following up and then they get down your funnel. And it'll be nice because on Thursday, okay, what happened? You know, like from last week, did anybody respond, Oh, I got out of the hundred I sent, I got 20 acceptances and out of those, you know, I sent emails to and they all ignored me. But I'm going to send my follow ups right now. And look, I have three new calls booked.

Victor: [00:14:21] It's Thursday necessary. Can I do them Saturday or Thursday? Ok, Andy, they

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:14:26] Just pick a day, just pick a day and put it in the calendar. So like when it comes on your calendar, you're not like, just have a search ready and LinkedIn with a tab pulled up and just start going click Connect Paste. Place your a little short message connect page. Connect to place that place, just go down it. You could write a script to do it for you, but it literally is going to take you less than an hour. I'd rather do

Victor: [00:14:46] Luck with individualized messages than scrape so that they actually feel like I'm trying to actually learn not to let it.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:14:55] So I would recommend doing that because that hour is kind of like your, you're putting in little, you're putting your you're paying your future self with like opportunities.

Victor: [00:15:06] No, I totally understand I haven't done it, I'm not going to pretend that I have since like the minute we started, like a whole license program. Of course you're busy, like

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:15:15] You had to pass the exams first. That's your priorities. But now as things open up for you, as you go to Hawaii and you're like doing this military training, you know, yeah, party have a good time, but then just carve out.

Victor: [00:15:24] At least my partying is just surfing, to be honest. That's my part. And that's what it is.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:15:29] Surf, surf. You know, if you're going to surf three or four hours a week, know, I hope you can put in an hour of, yeah,

Victor: [00:15:35] Yeah, you're absolutely no. No, definitely. I mean, definitely. I guess that was that's the goal. Quick question sometime. Maybe in January, if I kind of want to kind of run this by you, by messages I'm like on my process because you taught me, I don't know, October, maybe 10, 15 minutes. Would that be possible to kind of? Yeah. Absolutely.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:15:51] Yeah, we can go through it. Yeah, we have the whole follow up, the templates for the follow up. You know how often you follow up, how frequently you follow up, we can review all that.

Victor: [00:16:02] That was great. So kind of like a refresher, I'm going to try it on my own.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:16:05] Yeah, I mean, you want to be persistent, but not annoying. So like after you send the initial email, there's no response. You follow up with one week. If there's no response there, I'd give it like. Yeah. Four to six weeks. One more time, And there's nothing that I'd wait six months, six months or a year even, and then an update of like, Hey, here's what I've been up to. Thank you. You have a whole chain of talking to yourself with this one person.

Victor: [00:16:29] No, Nicole is dating again. I'm kind of putting the cart before the horse, but once I have my now, I have six seven and I have a six to six and I'm going to start working on a side like Wall Street voices, all the programs that you have put in hours and then all that. The two days, the seminars or whatever it is called the workshops that you are the boot camps.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:16:45] Yeah, yeah,

Victor: [00:16:46] It done those. I'm going to put them on my resume. I'll start doing, OK, hey, I'm studying for the financial. What is that CFP right? Kpis, not the Kpis, not the CFP, the consultant, financial consultant or something. Oh my God. The tip of my tongue, but I forgot it's fine. The point is for exams that you pass one by one CFA. Yes.

Patrick (CEO of WSO):  [00:17:10] Yeah. Oh, you're going to say you're going to start doing the CFA study?

Victor: [00:17:12] Yes. Associate on the side, you know, and it's kind of like a kind of building the resume. I heard it's a good

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:17:19] Market, good career move. If you're especially if you're in the markets. Yeah, not really necessary if you're going to banking or corporate finance or corporate development or Fena, it's not, you know, I mean, it should the employers aren't going to like. Ding, you for it, but it's not going to give you for the amount of time you're going to spend to get it. It's not necessarily the best use of your time. Ok, then

Victor: [00:17:43] I'm glad that I'm talking to you, then all good.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:17:45] If you're going to be in the markets, if, like you say, financial wise, you become that investment consultant, the CFA could. Yeah, I think the Cfa is a good place, especially if you ever want to actually be on the buy side and be like at a hedge fund or.

Victor: [00:17:57] Yeah, I was just sort of like a marketable skill while I'm at it to kind of get this going because once you start rolling on, it's awesome. The habits are developed like you said, it just keeps moving. And I don't want to stop that. So whatever I can throw in that infernal, you know,

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:18:12] Building skills, man, it can't hurt you. It doesn't hurt. It's just a question of like, OK, the CFA, the level one, I think, is actually pretty. Not that bad. I heard two is really hard. So maybe you just want to get the CFA level one just to show that I can do it and just stop and don't try to become a full CFA, just like you can. It's just another bullet on your resume, you know what I mean?

Victor: [00:18:37] Awesome. Well, yeah, I'm being more of a look. I'm using it as a sounding board, you know, it's like, OK, this is, yeah, I got this.

Patrick (CEO of WSO):  [00:18:43] Yeah, I mean, it kind of depends on where you want to end up, right? If you're like, Hey, I really love the markets. I want to be a trader. I want to be at a hedge fund and or equity research. Yeah, the CFA absolutely will get you more looks,

Victor: [00:18:54] To be honest. I don't know, really. I don't know. Like you've asked me, here's what I wanted to be, and now I want to be. I rather like be ready for the opportunity as it comes then, you know?

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:19:03] Yeah. And so I mean, I think that's where that's also where this networking is one hour a week of just 100 connections a week. That's also where these calls are really helpful as a genuine if you genuinely show interest and try to really figure out what each job is about, what the day to day is like and what fits your personality best that's on you like. It's so you can read on Wall Street, Oasis or any of these blogs like What a Job Is Like, but actually talking to somebody who's in it day to day and getting honest advice. It's, I think, really valuable. So, like just do that because I can tell you about banking, I can tell you about restructuring, I can tell you about private equity, but I can't tell you about I can't really tell you about corporate finance, corporate development. And these types of roles are, I mean, you can listen to a podcast and that helps. But I think it's good to just, you know, you can be building your relationships and really learning at the same time.

Victor: [00:19:53] No perfect makes perfect sense, yes, you're right. Absolutely. This is

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:19:56] Actually excited for you because like I feel like you can breathe

Victor: [00:19:59] Now much, much, much better and I'm really like, it's been a year you

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:20:04] Seem happy

Victor: [00:20:05] Or happier than I was since. Like I remember last year, right? I talked to you on the

Patrick (CEO of WSO):  [00:20:08] Phone last year is brutal.

Victor: [00:20:10] Yeah. I was like, You're

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:20:11] In rough shape.

Victor: [00:20:12] Yeah, just someone to cut my legs out right on there out of me. So I had no idea what I'm about to do. And then, you know, working again, I've nothing against this job. I've done this so many times. It's just like it felt really bad coming out of college and all that experience and everything. It's like a.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:20:28] That's why the networking, I mean, and there's so many people in your shoes. That's why just knowing how to just even talk to people knowing how to even just where to start, just to use LinkedIn, like it's so underutilized. There's a guy who just did a podcast with David. This guy was a truck driver. He's now a valuation. He's now a valuation expert, making close to two hundred thousand a year within five years. From nothing, his family's from nothing, his parents got divorced when he was going through a great financial crisis, his dad lost his job. He ended up losing his job. He was working in service businesses, waitressing, doing all this stuff. Hard worker, nice kid. Eventually, he went to community college. Did this whole thing like his whole story is really inspiring because he just wanted to improve himself and wanted to learn. And you know what his best thing was? He just like he attached him. He always raised his hands to do the crap jobs when people were like, Hey, who wants to learn this? Everyone's like, Oh, I don't want to. He was hard worker. He would raise his hand and learn it, and then he would like put to get everybody together for, like the softball game or this charity event. He would be the one like managing all that. So he ended up meeting all these people from different divisions. and then they're like, Well, hey, we really hit it off at this charity event. They were building a house. It's like, Oh, and the guy is like, Hey, why don't you come work for me? He's like, OK. So he goes there, and he just gradually went like this to the point where now he's at a place where small boutique, he's got a ton of autonomy. He's feeling good, he's learning. He's making bank.

Victor: [00:22:01] That's awesome. Isn't that like life's all about relationships? You know, technologies?

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:22:05] It is. It is. I mean, he's like investing in himself. He's a hard worker. Like, you can't get there just faking it. Like, it's like once people, once you're out of school, like the name, the name of school gets you so far. But once you're out of there like and you're working, the people don't give a shit. They just care. If you get your work done, you're good. You're a good team player.

Victor: [00:22:23] I don't, if anything, infidelity, I'm using luck at Georgetown as a pressure point that I have to prove myself to myself every single day I can just, you know?

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:22:32] Yeah, so it's good. I mean, it's good. You pass the exam, you're studying hard, you're getting those habits back.

Victor: [00:22:38] Yes, yes. Yeah, it was a long time coming. I was always a good kid and it was just like a kind of got thrown off a little bit. But yeah, cool man.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:22:48] Well, good to hear. I'm happy. You're happy. Thank you. I'm excited for where you can go. But yeah, just that. Take that story to heart because like that kid, he went to community college and then a public UMass so mass UMass in Boston. That's not a that's like a negative target school. That's like nobody comes from UMass Boston. It's very rare UMass Boston to be doing that well.

Victor: [00:23:08] Very impressive. And I know community colleges are very like I look down on and I understand why,

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:23:13] But I had no money. He had to like work to pay his community college himself, and he had to work on the side part time at nights. Then he had to. He had an internship at State Street in Boston. He was working part time

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:23:26] Working with them during the day and then go night classes.

Victor: [00:23:29] So, you know, back office, back office,

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:23:33] Like clearing trades like the most boring, mind numbing work like you can do, but he just did it and eat shit for a while.

Victor: [00:23:39] Now, or you pay the same fees in uniform, is it?

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:23:44] Yeah. All right. Anyways, this good lesson don't yet definitely carve out that time. And then next time we chat, maybe we can chat in. I don't know, maybe in February or something in January,

Victor: [00:23:58] Ok, I will.

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:24:00] And you, calata. And you know what I'll do on my back and I'll put like a beach. This is a green screen, so I'll put a beach behind me. So I'll pretend like

Victor: [00:24:07] I'm with you there. Yeah, awesome drink. Ok, yeah, we'll do that. Definitely. We'll do that when I get to Hawaii, we'll do that.

Patrick (CEO of WSO):  [00:24:13] Just kidding. I'm going to do that. I'm going to put a beach behind

Victor: [00:24:15] An old episode. That's fine, and I'll go to the beach and I'll set it up for about half an hour. We can't just walk through, but I'm not going to have this like three screen setups going to just be locked up. So that's fine. That's fine. That works. All right,

Patrick (CEO of WSO): [00:24:26] Man. We'll talk soon.
