#270 – Exiting for Millions in Under a Year with Shaan Puri and Ben Levy of The Milk Road

What up? What's going on, man? Bro, I just went to the Louis CK show at Madison Square Garden this past weekend. Oh, nice. How how was it? It's been a long time since I've been to a comedy show. Have you even been to any comedy shows? I don't know if you've you've ever told me. I've been to lots of comedy shows. Back in San Francisco, like, pre pandemic, I used to go, with Celeste all the time. I see. I wasn't seeing Louis CK. He's a pariah. He's been, I mean, he, like, masturbated in front of a bunch of women, and I thought that was a wrap for him. Yeah. Exactly. So, actually, you know Dan Shively. Right? He's like Yeah.

I don't know if did I tell you about the time that Dan and I went to an open mic in San Francisco? Yeah. You told me. This is because you did, stand up yourself too, I think. And you had never done stand up before, so you just kinda, like, did it. And then did you do good? Did you bomb? I can't remember. Exactly the exact same thing as like, it's like, I don't even agree that I did stand up. It was he wanted to to do stand up, and he's like, hey.
