when it happens we'll be able to move
[2]
very fast
[4]
when it is that christmas that everybody
[6]
gets a device
[8]
we voice needs a pokemon go
[11]
yeah well it needs you remember the
[13]
christmas when everybody got the
[15]
uh ev every like dvd player had the
[18]
netflix thing
[19]
in it yep like everybody got into the
[21]
new blu-ray thing and there was there
[22]
was that
[22]
that was when netflix became a thing and
[24]
i remember the hanukkah and christmas
[26]
where everybody got nintendo
[27]
yeah like there's always that moment
[31]
given that you've got you're talking
[32]
about 50 years and making this big like
[34]
peter thiel whole thing and obviously
[35]
that's out a long way so we can't even
[36]
really begin to
[37]
imagine what that next big thing could
[40]
be
[40]
something that layers on top of
[42]
blockchain something that layers on top
[43]
of voice
[44]
something that layers on top of vr
[46]
something that layers on top of ar
[48]
something that layers on top of
[49]
invention that's a framework that i
[50]
don't even know yet
[51]
yeah that's what i'm good at show me the
[53]
framework let me i will be the first
[55]
layer above that
[57]
so i want to get because this gets to
[59]
you to your thesis and your possible
[60]
voice you're really big on voice i am i
[62]
don't see it
[64]
well it's not that i don't any time i
[66]
found i hear myself saying i don't get
[67]
it that's like an
[68]
alarm that goes off my head saying
[69]
you're you're being an idiot you
[71]
you may not value time the way i do well
[74]
so my i guess my thing is
[75]
the and again i want to i don't want to
[77]
argue no no no no no no no arguing
[78]
what do you talk about this is the like
[80]
this is the this is what's going to
[81]
bring value to the listener right now
[83]
getting prepared because i look at it i
[84]
look at human behavior also and it's
[86]
hard for me to imagine
[87]
um people vocalizing half of what they
[89]
would you know search for and like you
[91]
you look at a lot of what are the kids
[92]
doing
[93]
i always look like it's what a lot of
[95]
the rednecks do yeah and i i love middle
[97]
america
[98]
as much as the next guy yeah this is
[100]
about time
[101]
yeah so once the technology catches up
[104]
for me to be sitting with you right now
[105]
and
[106]
i have a thought right now that i want
[107]
to tell my admins alex make sure i get
[109]
to the meeting on thursday and that's
[111]
done
[113]
this thing's gonna get [聽__聽] melted so
[114]
it's not so much about it's not so much
[116]
about the the search capabilities or
[117]
anything like that
[118]
it's about just it's about everything
[120]
okay and so it's
[122]
it's about everything it becomes the new
[124]
highway
[125]
and so what so you're seeing you're
[128]
seeing the behavior that tells you that
[129]
like
[130]
this feels a bit weird today for a lot
[131]
of people but
[133]
i don't believe it's going to be weird
[134]
do you remember what people said about
[135]
smartphones absolutely do you remember
[137]
what people said about computers
[138]
cars or anything really do you remember
[140]
the stigma around online dating
[142]
yeah okay those are all the answers to
[144]
your question
[145]
so but you're seeing it already
[146]
happening though i guess and again
[148]
no no no i'm seeing i'm seeing yes i'm
[151]
seeing yes i am seeing it
[152]
no no no i'm seeing it no no i am seeing
[155]
that it's happening
[156]
the amount of three-year-olds in the
[158]
world right now
[159]
that get the internet to do exactly what
[162]
they want
[163]
who have no ability to spell or write is
[166]
enormous
[168]
my son looks at pete alonso home run
[170]
highlights every day
[172]
and nobody helps him get there yeah
[174]
because he says youtube
[175]
my kids curate their playlists with
[177]
alexa it's absolutely happened
[179]
yeah it's just early it's really 1993
[182]
internet yeah that's all
[184]
so you're so you're cool being super
[187]
early and
[187]
waiting because i think a lot of what a
[189]
lot of people do is they'll
[191]
they don't believe something is coming
[192]
and if it's not there for a couple of
[193]
years then they just declare i was too
[195]
early and they bow out so how do you
[196]
make sure that you see it but you also
[198]
hold back enough
[199]
to wait like the process by not building
[201]
a business that requires it to be real
[203]
yet
[204]
go keep going with that a lot of people
[206]
are building a voice dev shop right now
[208]
and
[208]
or like that gentleman from um india
[211]
today
[212]
has an app he's right he's dead
[215]
yeah right so very easily
[218]
so i noticed it you're going to hang out
[220]
and watch but you're waiting for
[221]
that my my conversation currently about
[224]
tik tok and years ago when i got loud
[226]
about snapchat was the same game i'd
[229]
been watching for a while
[230]
i realized it curved to being older
[233]
which meant there was an arbitrary more
[235]
users
[235]
not super common whether it's by the way
[237]
linkedin didn't get
[238]
older linkedin didn't get younger
[241]
linkedin
[242]
changed as a platform that led to a lot
[244]
of awareness
[246]
from a content standpoint yeah
[249]
i keep butting and rolling no that's
[251]
really good you don't have lots of
[252]
questions no i don't actually i just i
[254]
listen to a bunch of stuff to me that
[255]
yeah just understand that process so
[257]
that
[258]
because that's what you're and i think
[259]
what you said there like that was that
[260]
was my
[261]
that was my big takeaway so you're going
[262]
to kick back and you're going to watch
[264]
but you're not going to double down from
[266]
an investment you're gonna double down
[267]
from an attention standpoint i'm also
[269]
gonna
[269]
i'm gonna also double down from an
[271]
investment of my time yeah
[272]
two years ago i went to seattle to speak
[274]
to the first tech stars
[276]
amazon collaboration around voice
[280]
right i'm gonna talk about voice so that
[282]
voice opportunities come to me
[284]
i'm getting the inbound my inbox is full
[287]
of kids starting stuff
[289]
i'm learning notice i go top of the
[291]
funnel so now i don't have to go search
[293]
for it investing your initial
[294]
investments are time not capital
[296]
correct that's that's a biggie like it's
[298]
not that it's not that binary i think a
[299]
lot of people believe but let me i
[300]
apologize let me talk about patrick
[302]
gibbons is sitting at vayner right now
[303]
and
[304]
and margot and many other people on the
[305]
vayner voice team
[307]
where it's running as a negative pnl
[310]
so i am putting my capital on it too not
[312]
to the you know not to the extreme
[314]
but internally as a focus to draw
[317]
attention to yourself so that the
[318]
opportunities come more
[319]
no because i can do that by just putting
[321]
up videos and doing podcasts or doing
[322]
this right now
[324]
no more because i want to have the skill
[325]
set of the craft and we're building
[327]
stuff and we're doing consulting and
[328]
we're learning
[329]
uh we're staying close to the platforms
[331]
because we have a department
[332]
um no just tangible operations and i
[336]
apologize real quick
[337]
when it happens you can just interrupt
[339]
when it happens
[340]
when it happens we'll be able to move
[343]
very fast
[344]
when it is that christmas that everybody
[346]
gets a device
[348]
we voice needs a pokemon go
[351]
yeah well it needs you remember the
[353]
christmas when everybody got
[354]
the uh ev every like dvd player had the
[358]
netflix thing
[359]
in it yep like everybody got it in the
[361]
new blu-ray thing and there was there
[362]
was that
[363]
that was when netflix became a thing and
[365]
i remember the hanukkah and christmas
[366]
where everybody got nintendo
[368]
yeah like there's always that moment
[369]
yeah sorry holidays
[371]
just happened i remember let me only t
[373]
because i've been using christmas the
[374]
whole time
[375]
the only reason i said hanukkah was
[376]
hanukkah was earlier than christmas that
[378]
year
[378]
yeah so i had nintendo before everybody
[380]
else and everyone was like i was like
[382]
finally finally being jewish one because
[384]
this is
[385]
the 80s and being jewish it wasn't
[387]
political correct time
[388]
it was like non-existent time anyway not
[391]
nonetheless
[392]
uh timing's a big part of this um but
[395]
yeah i think i think that
[398]
i uh i very much have a knack for
[402]
understanding
[403]
what's about to happen now it's about
[405]
refining that i invested in yobango i
[407]
talk about it a lot caleb was a great
[408]
kid
[409]
but he was he was the beginning of this
[411]
next generation of just kids being kids
[413]
to be entrepreneurs
[414]
not actually actually that's not even
[416]
true i don't actually know how much
[418]
actually that's the point i don't know i
[420]
didn't vet caleb
[421]
for yobango to know if he sold blow pops
[424]
or dvds or played store or had a pokemon
[427]
collection that he flipped
[428]
right that's when i leaned in too much
[430]
to tech for the sake of tech
[432]
yobango was right it was mobile devices
[435]
understanding other people around you
[437]
and you could talk to them he pitched it
[439]
as people discovery
[441]
i said people are gonna [聽__聽] right i was
[444]
like this is a dating app
[446]
good thing he didn't given his sage yeah
[448]
but i mean
[449]
you know but like but but he was like it
[451]
was really interesting i remember
[452]
thinking this is gonna be a hookup app
[453]
yeah this is gonna be a hookup app this
[455]
is gonna be i i always wanted to make
[457]
this app on top of facebook
[459]
called booty call right and
[462]
the idea of the app was it only worked
[463]
from 11 p.m to 5 in the morning
[466]
and it would let you know who which
[467]
friends were around and you could talk
[469]
to each other
[470]
and it was anonymous until you both said
[472]
cool and like it was a great idea
[473]
it was tinder yeah
[477]
but i was too early and the operator
[480]
was incapable yeah but when tinder came
[482]
out was successful it was one of my
[484]
favorite all-time
[485]
feelings about i it might be the time
[487]
where i finally put the cherry on the
[489]
cupcake and said i'm great at this
[491]
because there was a hypothesis at scale
[493]
for me at the time
[494]
and then went on to become a monster are
[497]
there any specific hypotheses around
[498]
voice right now that you've got that
[500]
you're working
[500]
that you can share i'm happy i'm fun
[502]
like that i'm very good i think
[504]
you need to look back at opentable and
[507]
and zillow look at everything that built
[510]
a platform on top of search
[513]
and then build that on voice got it
[515]
ordering food
[517]
buying a home services if you're the
[521]
hey alexa i need a babysitter and if
[524]
you're the default babysitter app
[526]
you will build a big company
[535]
you
