Is AI Coaching the Future of Physical Therapy?

Is AI Coaching the Future of Physical Therapy?

In this episode of PT Pintcast, Jimmy McKay talks with Dave Kittle and Tony Maritato about the cutting edge of physical therapy and healthcare delivery:


  • What Apple’s new AI coaching platform means for PTs
  • How behavioral science is changing patient engagement
  • Why some of the most forward-thinking PT clinics don’t take students
  • What defines a PT mill, and why the profession needs a clearer answer
  • How remote monitoring and storytelling can shape better outcomes


WEBVTT

00:00:09.582 --> 00:00:10.362
And we're underway.

00:00:10.382 --> 00:00:12.163
In the second we go live, Dave disappears.

00:00:12.544 --> 00:00:13.384
He'll be back in a second,

00:00:13.404 --> 00:00:14.484
because that's how the internet works.

00:00:14.525 --> 00:00:15.086
Tony, good morning.

00:00:15.105 --> 00:00:15.826
How are you doing today, man?

00:00:17.466 --> 00:00:18.288
And you're all alone.

00:00:18.507 --> 00:00:21.489
I don't know if this, there we go.

00:00:21.690 --> 00:00:23.731
Today, we're going to bring in Dave.

00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:24.920
He's back.

00:00:25.160 --> 00:00:26.001
Tony will be back in a minute.

00:00:26.021 --> 00:00:26.800
Maybe it's my internet.

00:00:26.821 --> 00:00:28.702
Did I just boot you out of the live show?

00:00:29.102 --> 00:00:29.301
No,

00:00:29.542 --> 00:00:31.362
I hit like the done button on the top

00:00:31.422 --> 00:00:31.702
right.

00:00:31.843 --> 00:00:32.463
And I thought that was going

00:00:32.482 --> 00:00:33.383
to make me go full screen,

00:00:33.402 --> 00:00:34.543
but it just bounced me out.

00:00:34.683 --> 00:00:35.923
That done means I'm out of here.

00:00:35.944 --> 00:00:37.204
All right.

00:00:37.225 --> 00:00:37.505
Well,

00:00:37.524 --> 00:00:38.746
Tony must have hit the done button

00:00:38.765 --> 00:00:39.466
too because he dipped.

00:00:39.506 --> 00:00:40.526
But he'll be back because he

00:00:40.545 --> 00:00:41.546
knows how technology works.

00:00:42.826 --> 00:00:45.287
I shared this in the group chat yesterday.

00:00:46.228 --> 00:00:47.429
Apple, every once in a while,

00:00:47.448 --> 00:00:48.588
I don't know if they're

00:00:48.628 --> 00:00:49.950
breaking the internet anymore.

00:00:50.771 --> 00:00:52.332
but they definitely cause a

00:00:52.411 --> 00:00:54.213
kerfuffle whenever they

00:00:54.232 --> 00:00:55.293
announce new features or

00:00:55.353 --> 00:00:56.874
new new hardware and there

00:00:57.034 --> 00:00:58.015
there are some other things

00:00:58.134 --> 00:01:00.335
out uh in terms of hardware

00:01:00.375 --> 00:01:01.877
coming very very soon for

00:01:01.996 --> 00:01:04.037
for apple but I had dropped

00:01:04.058 --> 00:01:06.920
in the chat this ai health

00:01:06.980 --> 00:01:08.081
coach did you guys look

00:01:08.141 --> 00:01:09.260
into like what apple is

00:01:09.340 --> 00:01:10.242
actually the project

00:01:10.421 --> 00:01:12.143
mulberry which makes it

00:01:12.162 --> 00:01:13.483
seem very very cloak and

00:01:13.504 --> 00:01:15.364
dagger which I like love cloak and dagger

00:01:15.944 --> 00:01:17.126
um but have you clicked into

00:01:17.146 --> 00:01:17.906
this at all or do you guys

00:01:17.927 --> 00:01:19.028
know anything about project

00:01:19.048 --> 00:01:20.430
mulberry no you're gonna

00:01:20.450 --> 00:01:21.189
have to tell me about it

00:01:21.209 --> 00:01:22.552
all right so essentially

00:01:24.240 --> 00:01:27.822
Apple is looking to leverage the data.

00:01:27.841 --> 00:01:29.262
I mean, this was always coming.

00:01:29.281 --> 00:01:30.522
This was always very obvious.

00:01:30.621 --> 00:01:33.722
Leverage the data that people are openly,

00:01:33.962 --> 00:01:35.022
willingly giving their

00:01:35.063 --> 00:01:37.903
phone from a health perspective.

00:01:38.022 --> 00:01:39.203
How many hours you sleep,

00:01:39.243 --> 00:01:40.243
how many steps you take,

00:01:40.563 --> 00:01:42.183
how often your heart rate is above this.

00:01:42.703 --> 00:01:44.745
I mean, you can do heart rate,

00:01:44.765 --> 00:01:46.165
you can do blood oxygen,

00:01:46.784 --> 00:01:49.584
and some data purists might say, well,

00:01:49.605 --> 00:01:50.605
the data's okay,

00:01:50.686 --> 00:01:51.885
or it's measuring kind of good.

00:01:52.605 --> 00:01:56.186
Here's the thing, like a B minus all day,

00:01:56.266 --> 00:01:58.447
twenty four seven is pretty good,

00:01:58.608 --> 00:02:00.108
in my opinion, in terms of data.

00:02:00.649 --> 00:02:01.409
So essentially what they're

00:02:01.429 --> 00:02:03.269
trying to do is how can we

00:02:03.310 --> 00:02:04.911
give you behavioral nudges?

00:02:05.131 --> 00:02:05.611
I mean,

00:02:05.650 --> 00:02:06.930
your Apple Watch or my Apple Watch

00:02:07.492 --> 00:02:08.831
does that already when I've

00:02:09.151 --> 00:02:10.032
when I've been sitting down

00:02:10.092 --> 00:02:11.212
too long and I tell it I

00:02:11.272 --> 00:02:13.133
want to do I want to stand

00:02:13.234 --> 00:02:14.794
eight hours a day, whatever that means.

00:02:15.033 --> 00:02:16.074
I at least have to stand one

00:02:16.115 --> 00:02:17.514
minute per day for eight hours,

00:02:17.555 --> 00:02:18.515
which doesn't seem like a lot,

00:02:18.536 --> 00:02:19.616
but it's behavioral nudges.

00:02:20.056 --> 00:02:20.697
And we understand that

00:02:20.736 --> 00:02:21.417
that's what it's like.

00:02:22.016 --> 00:02:23.838
So Project Mulberry wants to

00:02:24.278 --> 00:02:26.640
leverage these things and

00:02:26.661 --> 00:02:30.104
be able to look like they

00:02:30.144 --> 00:02:31.764
want to be your virtual doctor.

00:02:32.085 --> 00:02:33.026
That's what that's what

00:02:33.066 --> 00:02:34.007
Project Mulberry is

00:02:34.046 --> 00:02:35.087
combining that data with

00:02:35.127 --> 00:02:35.867
twenty four seven

00:02:36.028 --> 00:02:37.710
personalization and

00:02:37.770 --> 00:02:39.091
personalized health guidance.

00:02:39.831 --> 00:02:41.752
They're looking to position themselves.

00:02:42.274 --> 00:02:43.335
I mean, correct me if I'm wrong,

00:02:43.375 --> 00:02:45.056
is the future of preventative care.

00:02:45.195 --> 00:02:47.098
Like if it think of all the

00:02:47.117 --> 00:02:48.118
things that we could think

00:02:48.179 --> 00:02:49.460
of now and a billion that

00:02:49.500 --> 00:02:50.901
we couldn't that.

00:02:52.668 --> 00:02:53.768
Apple could use that data to

00:02:53.907 --> 00:02:54.949
nudge you to do.

00:02:56.909 --> 00:02:58.370
So I want to stop there just

00:02:58.409 --> 00:02:59.890
by saying like, hey, listen, like,

00:02:59.950 --> 00:03:00.991
what do you think about this?

00:03:01.031 --> 00:03:02.352
Is this a competitive advantage?

00:03:02.852 --> 00:03:03.872
Is Apple going to sell this

00:03:03.912 --> 00:03:04.771
just to the consumer?

00:03:05.052 --> 00:03:06.233
Do they sell it to the PT or

00:03:06.252 --> 00:03:07.513
the doctor to harness their

00:03:07.573 --> 00:03:09.794
technology to then be the virtual doctor?

00:03:10.153 --> 00:03:11.175
Which would be the better option?

00:03:11.868 --> 00:03:12.849
I mean,

00:03:12.870 --> 00:03:13.789
they're probably selling it to

00:03:13.830 --> 00:03:15.110
companies like, I don't know, like,

00:03:15.290 --> 00:03:16.551
I don't want to say like Palantir.

00:03:16.592 --> 00:03:19.514
Palantir is some company that does, like,

00:03:19.533 --> 00:03:21.115
drones and, like,

00:03:21.175 --> 00:03:22.435
protecting our borders and

00:03:22.495 --> 00:03:23.096
stuff like that.

00:03:23.256 --> 00:03:25.717
I was going to say sell to

00:03:25.736 --> 00:03:26.578
pharmaceutical companies.

00:03:26.598 --> 00:03:27.497
I don't know if they'll be able to,

00:03:27.739 --> 00:03:29.139
if they would even want it or not.

00:03:30.300 --> 00:03:31.961
I don't understand fully why

00:03:32.020 --> 00:03:32.581
Apple is doing it.

00:03:32.641 --> 00:03:33.062
I mean, like,

00:03:33.081 --> 00:03:34.383
they have a very profitable...

00:03:35.143 --> 00:03:36.945
hardware approach, then they sell the,

00:03:37.006 --> 00:03:38.649
you know, iCloud and that type of stuff.

00:03:39.028 --> 00:03:40.651
They, you know, sell new iPhones.

00:03:40.692 --> 00:03:42.594
They have the iPad and other devices.

00:03:43.316 --> 00:03:44.838
I get like this sounds great.

00:03:45.907 --> 00:03:47.628
But I messaged you and Tony

00:03:47.649 --> 00:03:49.248
in the chat yesterday my

00:03:49.349 --> 00:03:50.250
already preconceived

00:03:50.289 --> 00:03:52.510
notions around like nudges

00:03:52.531 --> 00:03:53.411
are not going to change.

00:03:53.531 --> 00:03:54.711
Nudges are not going to change someone.

00:03:54.731 --> 00:03:55.551
They're not going to actually,

00:03:56.673 --> 00:03:57.293
in my opinion,

00:03:58.052 --> 00:03:59.693
like in mass across the country,

00:03:59.973 --> 00:04:01.814
nudges are not going to

00:04:01.854 --> 00:04:03.115
change people's behavior.

00:04:03.134 --> 00:04:04.256
They're not going to get them to walk more,

00:04:04.295 --> 00:04:06.116
move more, drink more water, sleep better,

00:04:06.736 --> 00:04:07.736
exercise more.

00:04:09.457 --> 00:04:10.318
I think for the most part,

00:04:10.338 --> 00:04:11.818
you either need some remote

00:04:11.859 --> 00:04:13.360
programming person that you pay

00:04:15.540 --> 00:04:18.221
I paid Michael Laviolette to write up a,

00:04:18.762 --> 00:04:19.562
we did three months and

00:04:19.581 --> 00:04:21.081
then I think we did another three months,

00:04:21.322 --> 00:04:21.963
six months total,

00:04:21.983 --> 00:04:22.903
maybe nine months or something.

00:04:22.963 --> 00:04:24.442
I paid him, he's a physical therapist.

00:04:24.963 --> 00:04:26.504
I paid him for writing up a

00:04:26.524 --> 00:04:27.163
workout for me.

00:04:27.204 --> 00:04:28.103
Then he would check in with

00:04:28.163 --> 00:04:29.403
me and it was a human

00:04:29.444 --> 00:04:30.045
checking in with me.

00:04:30.125 --> 00:04:31.285
If it's a push notification

00:04:31.305 --> 00:04:33.745
that checks in with me, as a human,

00:04:34.505 --> 00:04:35.906
I am numb to it.

00:04:36.105 --> 00:04:37.206
Most folks are numb to it.

00:04:37.745 --> 00:04:38.987
They're not gonna use it for

00:04:39.026 --> 00:04:39.826
behavior change.

00:04:40.286 --> 00:04:41.007
I don't really understand

00:04:41.026 --> 00:04:41.747
why Apple would do this.

00:04:41.867 --> 00:04:43.267
I think it is great,

00:04:43.288 --> 00:04:44.267
it's a great initiative,

00:04:45.250 --> 00:04:45.750
They're not going to make

00:04:45.790 --> 00:04:46.771
money from the consumers

00:04:46.810 --> 00:04:48.172
because no one puts value

00:04:48.312 --> 00:04:49.473
in a push notification

00:04:49.533 --> 00:04:51.173
nudge or whatever when it comes from AI.

00:04:51.733 --> 00:04:52.454
So I don't think it's even

00:04:52.494 --> 00:04:53.675
going to actually work,

00:04:54.035 --> 00:04:55.036
but they might use the data

00:04:55.055 --> 00:04:56.117
to then sell it to whoever

00:04:56.137 --> 00:04:56.997
that you didn't even

00:04:57.076 --> 00:04:59.177
approve of selling your data to.

00:04:59.778 --> 00:05:00.639
That is my...

00:05:02.244 --> 00:05:02.584
I don't know,

00:05:02.624 --> 00:05:05.107
my my intro commentary to this so far.

00:05:05.906 --> 00:05:06.767
Yeah, you said it was OK.

00:05:06.867 --> 00:05:08.490
It was just in the terms of the four.

00:05:08.509 --> 00:05:09.129
Yeah, yeah.

00:05:09.149 --> 00:05:10.451
You scrolled fifty times and

00:05:10.471 --> 00:05:11.692
you accept terms.

00:05:11.752 --> 00:05:12.473
Yeah, yeah.

00:05:12.512 --> 00:05:13.254
So I agree.

00:05:13.274 --> 00:05:14.415
But like, all right.

00:05:14.475 --> 00:05:17.038
So I think you can steal this from Apple.

00:05:18.567 --> 00:05:19.668
and you don't even have to

00:05:19.687 --> 00:05:20.988
hire developers I think the

00:05:21.069 --> 00:05:23.730
idea here would be be more

00:05:23.771 --> 00:05:24.911
of the coach not just the

00:05:24.951 --> 00:05:26.531
clinician so this is where

00:05:26.591 --> 00:05:28.052
I think the technology and

00:05:28.132 --> 00:05:29.033
remote therapeutic

00:05:29.093 --> 00:05:29.954
monitoring sort of come

00:05:29.975 --> 00:05:32.096
into play which is I did

00:05:32.115 --> 00:05:33.096
this when I had a triathlon

00:05:33.137 --> 00:05:35.458
coach I I hired kevin who

00:05:35.497 --> 00:05:36.478
was a pt student at the

00:05:36.499 --> 00:05:37.358
time but a really really

00:05:37.379 --> 00:05:39.480
great triathlete and he

00:05:39.500 --> 00:05:40.781
would write up a week or

00:05:40.802 --> 00:05:42.242
remember this a week or

00:05:42.302 --> 00:05:43.704
two's worth of workouts

00:05:44.723 --> 00:05:45.463
where I was like, well,

00:05:45.524 --> 00:05:46.543
how come you just didn't

00:05:46.564 --> 00:05:48.024
give me six months worth of workouts?

00:05:48.084 --> 00:05:49.365
And, of course, he logically was like,

00:05:49.464 --> 00:05:49.564
well,

00:05:49.584 --> 00:05:50.444
I didn't see how you did on the

00:05:50.485 --> 00:05:51.345
first week or two,

00:05:51.706 --> 00:05:52.545
and I'm going to adjust the

00:05:52.565 --> 00:05:53.865
week or two based on this.

00:05:54.266 --> 00:05:54.886
Or like, hey, man,

00:05:54.906 --> 00:05:55.927
I got to travel for work.

00:05:56.247 --> 00:05:58.127
So I physically can't work

00:05:58.226 --> 00:05:59.067
out on these days,

00:05:59.487 --> 00:06:00.548
so he's going to modify that.

00:06:01.127 --> 00:06:02.927
I look at this as how did

00:06:02.947 --> 00:06:04.028
you do or how are we doing?

00:06:04.288 --> 00:06:04.848
Show me.

00:06:05.369 --> 00:06:06.949
So here's a cool upsell, I think,

00:06:07.269 --> 00:06:08.028
when I was coming up with

00:06:08.048 --> 00:06:09.108
this this morning and last

00:06:09.168 --> 00:06:10.110
night that I think would

00:06:10.129 --> 00:06:11.050
work well for Dave Kittle.

00:06:11.750 --> 00:06:14.512
which is remote Dave,

00:06:14.692 --> 00:06:16.555
like remote therapeutic monitoring.

00:06:16.574 --> 00:06:18.435
We'll give it some name, right?

00:06:18.916 --> 00:06:19.437
With it,

00:06:20.117 --> 00:06:21.980
it's a package that you're going

00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:22.439
to monitor.

00:06:22.480 --> 00:06:23.540
Now there's therapeutic,

00:06:23.581 --> 00:06:25.302
remote therapeutic monitoring, right?

00:06:25.622 --> 00:06:26.644
But with it comes an Apple,

00:06:27.404 --> 00:06:28.225
comes an Apple watch.

00:06:29.396 --> 00:06:31.137
So now as the program is like, here,

00:06:31.177 --> 00:06:32.197
you say you want to get better.

00:06:32.398 --> 00:06:33.639
You want my eyes on you,

00:06:33.699 --> 00:06:34.838
my professional expertise.

00:06:35.259 --> 00:06:36.259
I have to see the data.

00:06:36.860 --> 00:06:37.740
Just saying, yes,

00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:39.100
I did my exercise three times,

00:06:39.161 --> 00:06:40.942
exactly like you showed me, Dr. Dave.

00:06:40.982 --> 00:06:41.742
Of course I did.

00:06:42.281 --> 00:06:43.702
Precisely when you told me to do it,

00:06:43.723 --> 00:06:44.622
how many times you told me.

00:06:45.083 --> 00:06:45.923
Let's take a look at how

00:06:45.944 --> 00:06:47.764
you're doing and what are the metrics.

00:06:48.324 --> 00:06:50.586
So now instead of maybe the KPI being,

00:06:51.485 --> 00:06:53.047
was compliant with a GP,

00:06:53.466 --> 00:06:56.088
it was able to go X number

00:06:56.108 --> 00:06:57.288
of steps or raise their

00:06:57.307 --> 00:06:58.488
heart rate above this rate

00:06:58.769 --> 00:07:00.829
for X number of minutes and days.

00:07:01.310 --> 00:07:02.449
And now you can set.

00:07:03.891 --> 00:07:05.771
More relatable, more specific, more

00:07:07.870 --> 00:07:10.232
more valuable KPIs and you can prove it.

00:07:10.653 --> 00:07:10.932
Right.

00:07:11.233 --> 00:07:12.615
And like, there's that feedback loop.

00:07:12.855 --> 00:07:13.154
So yeah,

00:07:13.194 --> 00:07:14.516
the people who are never going to do it,

00:07:14.656 --> 00:07:15.336
they're never going to do it.

00:07:15.637 --> 00:07:15.798
Right.

00:07:16.879 --> 00:07:17.639
But the people who are like,

00:07:18.319 --> 00:07:19.701
I'm on the end of the diving board.

00:07:19.882 --> 00:07:21.142
If you give me a ball to

00:07:21.182 --> 00:07:24.105
chase or a thing to score, I will,

00:07:24.286 --> 00:07:25.187
I'm more apt to do it.

00:07:25.206 --> 00:07:27.629
So Tony, Dave, I was saying, Tony,

00:07:27.689 --> 00:07:29.411
I was saying to Dave that a

00:07:29.490 --> 00:07:30.331
package could be

00:07:32.267 --> 00:07:33.408
Dave's going to now remotely

00:07:33.507 --> 00:07:35.209
therapeutic monitor you.

00:07:35.449 --> 00:07:37.391
With it comes an Apple Watch.

00:07:37.711 --> 00:07:39.172
I'm going to have all this data.

00:07:39.692 --> 00:07:40.874
Apple's big into it.

00:07:41.314 --> 00:07:42.053
I'm going to be able to get

00:07:42.173 --> 00:07:44.115
eyes on you even when you're not here.

00:07:44.495 --> 00:07:45.956
And now the in-person visit

00:07:45.997 --> 00:07:47.237
is more valuable.

00:07:47.557 --> 00:07:48.519
Now it's not just let me

00:07:48.579 --> 00:07:49.660
watch you do your bridges.

00:07:49.740 --> 00:07:51.180
Let me watch you do your squats,

00:07:51.420 --> 00:07:53.482
which everybody holds as low value anyway,

00:07:53.541 --> 00:07:53.742
right?

00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:55.120
People who've never

00:07:55.160 --> 00:07:56.279
experienced PT come to a

00:07:56.319 --> 00:07:58.000
clinic and they're like, what's like,

00:07:58.060 --> 00:07:58.240
I mean,

00:07:58.300 --> 00:07:59.300
I would love to know the common

00:07:59.321 --> 00:08:00.442
thoughts going through people's heads,

00:08:00.461 --> 00:08:01.882
but like, I could do this at home.

00:08:02.161 --> 00:08:03.002
Why do I need you?

00:08:03.081 --> 00:08:04.903
As Dave said, there's YouTube videos.

00:08:04.983 --> 00:08:05.523
I could do this.

00:08:05.843 --> 00:08:06.923
So make it valuable.

00:08:07.062 --> 00:08:09.184
And now it feels more like I

00:08:09.223 --> 00:08:12.084
have my PT unless I go to

00:08:12.125 --> 00:08:13.685
PT or this is something I have to do.

00:08:14.064 --> 00:08:15.307
So I don't think you need

00:08:15.447 --> 00:08:16.608
Apple to do anything different.

00:08:17.048 --> 00:08:18.130
I think if you harness the

00:08:18.151 --> 00:08:19.271
fact that like Apple has

00:08:19.312 --> 00:08:20.894
all this stuff and I can

00:08:21.115 --> 00:08:24.358
use this with you for your specific goals,

00:08:24.939 --> 00:08:27.182
this feels like a yes and to Apple.

00:08:28.444 --> 00:08:29.064
Yeah, for sure.

00:08:29.124 --> 00:08:30.845
I mean, all the technology exists.

00:08:30.944 --> 00:08:32.285
We can track everything.

00:08:34.187 --> 00:08:35.467
We've talked about this a

00:08:35.567 --> 00:08:37.308
bunch over the years.

00:08:38.350 --> 00:08:39.350
It just depends.

00:08:39.370 --> 00:08:40.071
Like, whoop,

00:08:40.510 --> 00:08:42.572
there's all these devices out there.

00:08:42.952 --> 00:08:44.352
Everything from a five

00:08:44.393 --> 00:08:47.235
dollar pedometer to take a

00:08:47.274 --> 00:08:48.895
screenshot on your phone.

00:08:48.936 --> 00:08:51.216
My iPhone has the health app

00:08:51.256 --> 00:08:52.317
that you can see how many

00:08:52.378 --> 00:08:54.438
steps to something like

00:08:54.458 --> 00:08:55.480
you're talking about where

00:08:55.519 --> 00:08:57.100
it's actually monitoring everything.

00:08:58.164 --> 00:08:59.066
that stuff is there.

00:08:59.086 --> 00:09:00.187
Just got to incorporate it.

00:09:00.888 --> 00:09:02.688
Sam says that he has a program like this.

00:09:03.070 --> 00:09:04.630
He likes a watch to track

00:09:04.671 --> 00:09:05.471
aerobic exercise.

00:09:05.511 --> 00:09:06.432
Personally, he likes Garmin.

00:09:06.491 --> 00:09:06.753
Again,

00:09:06.993 --> 00:09:07.753
these things are going to have

00:09:08.293 --> 00:09:09.514
positives and negatives, right?

00:09:09.534 --> 00:09:11.035
In terms of like data accuracy,

00:09:11.316 --> 00:09:12.537
we're not getting into the weeds there,

00:09:12.817 --> 00:09:16.520
but using it as a carrot and not a stick,

00:09:17.081 --> 00:09:17.301
I think.

00:09:18.662 --> 00:09:21.083
I believe in the U S it's

00:09:21.183 --> 00:09:22.686
only going to work if there's some

00:09:25.852 --> 00:09:27.374
There's another human that

00:09:27.413 --> 00:09:29.595
is in the mix of this offering.

00:09:29.615 --> 00:09:30.416
Why?

00:09:31.076 --> 00:09:31.976
I agree, but why?

00:09:31.996 --> 00:09:34.538
Because people need accountability.

00:09:34.859 --> 00:09:36.038
People are more accountable

00:09:36.078 --> 00:09:37.039
to another person.

00:09:37.080 --> 00:09:38.480
Like if I have this,

00:09:38.701 --> 00:09:39.961
like we've been doing it for so long now,

00:09:39.981 --> 00:09:41.062
this is a habit every Tuesday,

00:09:41.081 --> 00:09:41.543
Thursday morning.

00:09:41.602 --> 00:09:43.183
But when we first started,

00:09:43.203 --> 00:09:44.484
it was like a calendar invite.

00:09:44.965 --> 00:09:47.525
And I would have not urgency,

00:09:47.546 --> 00:09:48.866
but I would be like, oh,

00:09:48.907 --> 00:09:50.187
like I have this call with

00:09:50.207 --> 00:09:50.768
Tony and Jimmy.

00:09:50.788 --> 00:09:51.528
And if I don't show up,

00:09:51.548 --> 00:09:53.250
then I don't look good.

00:09:53.429 --> 00:09:55.091
great or I'm leaving them

00:09:55.150 --> 00:09:56.610
hanging or whatever but if

00:09:56.711 --> 00:09:57.831
it's if it's a push

00:09:57.870 --> 00:09:58.892
notification from apple

00:09:58.912 --> 00:10:00.111
that says like hey why

00:10:00.152 --> 00:10:00.912
don't you walk around the

00:10:00.932 --> 00:10:02.293
block it's not going to

00:10:02.332 --> 00:10:03.793
work it is right this this

00:10:03.832 --> 00:10:05.413
one and I and I tony was

00:10:05.474 --> 00:10:06.813
offline but I said it to

00:10:06.854 --> 00:10:08.695
jimmy but the the messaging

00:10:08.735 --> 00:10:09.995
that I sent yesterday which

00:10:10.054 --> 00:10:11.716
is my already preconceived

00:10:11.755 --> 00:10:13.216
notions around you know

00:10:13.376 --> 00:10:14.496
whatever the whatever the

00:10:14.517 --> 00:10:15.537
approximate stats are forty

00:10:15.576 --> 00:10:17.437
percent of the united states is obese

00:10:18.595 --> 00:10:19.796
probably sixty percent are

00:10:19.875 --> 00:10:21.337
overweight or have blood

00:10:21.357 --> 00:10:22.499
work that is out of the

00:10:22.578 --> 00:10:24.681
normal ranges and so a push

00:10:24.701 --> 00:10:25.822
notification from Apple

00:10:25.841 --> 00:10:27.024
that says like hey are you

00:10:27.063 --> 00:10:28.065
starting your day like

00:10:28.105 --> 00:10:29.346
drink eight ounces of water

00:10:29.666 --> 00:10:30.567
and then why don't you know

00:10:30.847 --> 00:10:31.828
go walk around the block

00:10:31.869 --> 00:10:32.509
and let me know how you

00:10:32.548 --> 00:10:34.010
feel like people are

00:10:34.110 --> 00:10:35.392
already numb to all these

00:10:35.432 --> 00:10:36.413
push notifications and

00:10:36.533 --> 00:10:37.754
emails and messages and

00:10:38.235 --> 00:10:41.057
Whatever the mindfulness app

00:10:41.077 --> 00:10:42.379
that comes on my Apple Watch,

00:10:42.539 --> 00:10:44.182
and I get a notification on

00:10:44.201 --> 00:10:45.062
my Apple Watch that says,

00:10:45.123 --> 00:10:46.163
are you starting your day?

00:10:46.423 --> 00:10:47.325
And it's like, eight a.m.,

00:10:47.345 --> 00:10:48.485
and we've been up since six a.m.

00:10:48.506 --> 00:10:50.128
It's like, I started my day two hours ago.

00:10:50.908 --> 00:10:51.669
It doesn't even make sense.

00:10:52.029 --> 00:10:53.251
But you're right, Jimmy.

00:10:53.331 --> 00:10:54.953
I agree with you if there's

00:10:54.994 --> 00:10:56.495
a package that says,

00:10:57.296 --> 00:10:58.876
I'm going to,

00:10:58.956 --> 00:11:00.418
a patient that has chronic back pain,

00:11:00.437 --> 00:11:01.278
neuropathy, whatever,

00:11:01.339 --> 00:11:03.581
total knee replacement, a year ago,

00:11:03.640 --> 00:11:04.621
total knee replacement, whatever.

00:11:05.142 --> 00:11:07.082
And, you know, Tony, Jimmy, or myself,

00:11:07.102 --> 00:11:09.085
we sell this package of an

00:11:09.225 --> 00:11:10.846
Apple Watch to track your stat,

00:11:11.245 --> 00:11:12.267
to track your pedometer,

00:11:12.307 --> 00:11:14.028
your steps per day, all of that,

00:11:14.369 --> 00:11:16.289
and tied into the in-person

00:11:16.409 --> 00:11:18.292
or a remote coaching

00:11:18.912 --> 00:11:21.533
virtual programming component, then yes,

00:11:21.614 --> 00:11:22.455
I believe it could work.

00:11:22.975 --> 00:11:24.495
Watch is free as long as you

00:11:24.535 --> 00:11:25.496
go through the twelve months.

00:11:25.777 --> 00:11:26.076
Right.

00:11:26.277 --> 00:11:27.658
Watch as long as like use

00:11:27.677 --> 00:11:28.938
that like you want the watch.

00:11:29.078 --> 00:11:30.139
So you have to do the thing

00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:31.700
like a free watch.

00:11:31.980 --> 00:11:33.380
My program is only two or three grand,

00:11:33.400 --> 00:11:34.241
but it's a free watch.

00:11:34.682 --> 00:11:34.981
Right.

00:11:35.722 --> 00:11:38.304
You got to give the watch back.

00:11:38.485 --> 00:11:39.926
So, Dave, let me ask you,

00:11:40.005 --> 00:11:40.885
I've been meaning to talk

00:11:40.905 --> 00:11:41.746
to you about this.

00:11:42.167 --> 00:11:44.107
Have you seen the new videos

00:11:44.148 --> 00:11:46.308
put out by the new Google

00:11:46.809 --> 00:11:48.610
video AI video generator?

00:11:50.811 --> 00:11:51.591
Uh,

00:11:51.671 --> 00:11:53.932
one of the Gemini commercials or it's

00:11:53.993 --> 00:11:54.893
not Gemini.

00:11:54.952 --> 00:11:56.734
It's like VO or something.

00:11:56.913 --> 00:11:57.715
I should know.

00:11:57.794 --> 00:11:59.375
I was just looking at it this morning.

00:12:00.015 --> 00:12:03.077
These videos are freaking me out.

00:12:03.577 --> 00:12:05.918
So, so they're, they're videos.

00:12:05.999 --> 00:12:06.620
They're there.

00:12:06.740 --> 00:12:07.740
They have audio,

00:12:07.820 --> 00:12:08.900
which I don't think any of

00:12:08.921 --> 00:12:10.741
the other major video

00:12:10.761 --> 00:12:13.202
platforms do their videos.

00:12:13.243 --> 00:12:14.903
Just like this, you and I talking,

00:12:15.384 --> 00:12:17.346
they're very real humans.

00:12:17.466 --> 00:12:18.086
And they're like,

00:12:18.695 --> 00:12:21.155
The, you know, I am not just a prompt,

00:12:21.355 --> 00:12:23.557
I am a real person and it

00:12:23.677 --> 00:12:25.457
is shockingly real.

00:12:26.418 --> 00:12:26.918
You,

00:12:27.818 --> 00:12:29.940
I feel like this is something that's

00:12:29.980 --> 00:12:33.061
going to genuinely replace you, me,

00:12:33.221 --> 00:12:33.861
all of us.

00:12:34.861 --> 00:12:36.003
And the difference is when

00:12:36.263 --> 00:12:39.183
AI is the one that's doing the motivation,

00:12:39.264 --> 00:12:40.644
doing the accountability,

00:12:40.725 --> 00:12:43.105
holding somebody's feet to the fire.

00:12:44.005 --> 00:12:46.167
AI can pull all of our strings.

00:12:46.307 --> 00:12:48.466
AI understands all of our fears,

00:12:48.527 --> 00:12:50.768
all of our insecurities.

00:12:52.227 --> 00:12:53.048
I think everything you're

00:12:53.067 --> 00:12:54.229
saying is accurate,

00:12:54.269 --> 00:12:55.688
but AI can do it better

00:12:55.708 --> 00:12:57.649
than a human motivator can do it.

00:12:58.190 --> 00:13:00.210
Especially an AI that's with us,

00:13:00.250 --> 00:13:03.510
the whole idea that open AI

00:13:04.211 --> 00:13:06.094
Got the guy, Ives,

00:13:06.193 --> 00:13:07.315
I think his last name is,

00:13:07.335 --> 00:13:10.136
from Apple to come on board

00:13:10.236 --> 00:13:11.738
and design a new device,

00:13:11.778 --> 00:13:13.099
whether it's a phone or

00:13:13.198 --> 00:13:15.600
something that records

00:13:15.640 --> 00:13:17.543
everything visually, audio.

00:13:18.102 --> 00:13:19.563
It is going to be ridiculous

00:13:19.684 --> 00:13:21.966
how much this device understands.

00:13:22.386 --> 00:13:24.388
Just like we're talking about,

00:13:25.609 --> 00:13:26.610
I want to buy a new bike.

00:13:26.629 --> 00:13:27.831
And then I start seeing bike

00:13:28.051 --> 00:13:30.513
ads through my social media,

00:13:30.572 --> 00:13:32.414
following me on Google, on Facebook,

00:13:32.475 --> 00:13:33.535
on all the platforms.

00:13:34.056 --> 00:13:36.059
This is that times a thousand.

00:13:36.660 --> 00:13:39.826
So I do think the AI is

00:13:39.846 --> 00:13:40.609
going to do it better.

00:13:40.629 --> 00:13:41.389
What source?

00:13:41.451 --> 00:13:42.032
Go ahead.

00:13:43.755 --> 00:13:45.577
So right now we're in is

00:13:45.658 --> 00:13:47.080
June tenth of twenty twenty five.

00:13:47.220 --> 00:13:49.902
And Billie Jean, you know, the guy,

00:13:49.961 --> 00:13:52.485
Billie Jean, Billie Jean marketing,

00:13:52.764 --> 00:13:54.366
Billie Jean, the genius, whatever,

00:13:54.787 --> 00:13:55.827
you know, buy my stuff, whatever.

00:13:55.847 --> 00:13:57.809
Yeah, he's a big he's a big marketer.

00:13:57.850 --> 00:14:00.092
He runs leads for small businesses.

00:14:00.133 --> 00:14:00.893
He's got I think he's in

00:14:00.913 --> 00:14:01.793
like San Diego or whatever.

00:14:02.294 --> 00:14:04.756
He posts videos on his Instagram and.

00:14:05.738 --> 00:14:06.899
I'm watching them tony and

00:14:06.938 --> 00:14:08.139
they're really good I agree

00:14:08.159 --> 00:14:09.280
they're really good and

00:14:09.301 --> 00:14:10.543
it's a selfie video of him

00:14:11.283 --> 00:14:13.544
and he's talking and then

00:14:14.446 --> 00:14:15.346
as the video is playing

00:14:15.366 --> 00:14:16.107
eventually it says like

00:14:16.168 --> 00:14:17.168
this is actually not me

00:14:17.208 --> 00:14:19.049
this is an ai video and

00:14:19.070 --> 00:14:19.850
then the caption says

00:14:19.870 --> 00:14:20.471
something like can you

00:14:20.491 --> 00:14:22.113
comment below like zero to

00:14:22.173 --> 00:14:25.697
ten on the level of uh

00:14:25.856 --> 00:14:27.097
reality or realness or

00:14:27.138 --> 00:14:28.458
whatever like actually like

00:14:28.479 --> 00:14:28.980
that you think it

00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:31.480
looks like if ten is a real person,

00:14:31.681 --> 00:14:34.643
or if zero is a real person and ten is AI,

00:14:34.663 --> 00:14:35.582
whatever, pick a number.

00:14:36.384 --> 00:14:37.063
And I'm watching these

00:14:37.083 --> 00:14:38.745
videos in twenty twenty five.

00:14:39.024 --> 00:14:39.985
And yes, they're good.

00:14:40.046 --> 00:14:40.745
Yes, they're close.

00:14:41.326 --> 00:14:43.147
But you could still see like, oh,

00:14:43.246 --> 00:14:44.248
and then I get distracted.

00:14:44.268 --> 00:14:45.688
Then I'm like, oh, this then I'm like,

00:14:45.788 --> 00:14:47.229
this is actually not a real human.

00:14:47.830 --> 00:14:49.471
And so then I miss this whole message on

00:14:51.366 --> 00:14:52.167
I get the whole message,

00:14:52.187 --> 00:14:53.788
but his message is like now

00:14:53.828 --> 00:14:55.009
he's saying sell these

00:14:55.049 --> 00:14:56.270
types of videos to business

00:14:56.350 --> 00:14:58.052
owners for content, for social media,

00:14:58.373 --> 00:14:59.594
and you can use Sona or

00:15:00.114 --> 00:15:00.955
whatever these platforms

00:15:00.995 --> 00:15:02.615
are to make videos.

00:15:02.895 --> 00:15:03.856
So anyway, go ahead, Jimmy.

00:15:04.697 --> 00:15:04.898
Yeah,

00:15:04.957 --> 00:15:05.698
I was going to say like the

00:15:05.739 --> 00:15:06.720
psychological levers we're

00:15:06.759 --> 00:15:07.841
talking about a second ago,

00:15:07.880 --> 00:15:10.081
which is if I know AI or my

00:15:10.142 --> 00:15:11.524
phone is the one saying like,

00:15:11.583 --> 00:15:12.203
good morning,

00:15:12.244 --> 00:15:13.125
make sure to drink eight

00:15:13.144 --> 00:15:13.826
glasses of water.

00:15:14.426 --> 00:15:15.606
Apple sort of already baked

00:15:15.647 --> 00:15:17.307
that into the cake on how to make it.

00:15:17.326 --> 00:15:18.168
So I don't know if you,

00:15:18.187 --> 00:15:20.489
do you guys use Apple watches with, okay.

00:15:20.528 --> 00:15:23.250
So I'm connected to my buddy, Brian,

00:15:23.509 --> 00:15:25.191
and I can tell when he starts a workout.

00:15:25.956 --> 00:15:26.576
And I can tell when he

00:15:26.596 --> 00:15:28.236
closes his rings and he he

00:15:28.256 --> 00:15:29.638
can tell when I close mine.

00:15:29.898 --> 00:15:30.818
So there is that element.

00:15:30.839 --> 00:15:32.519
So you could quite simply

00:15:32.599 --> 00:15:34.019
you would have to develop any program.

00:15:34.039 --> 00:15:34.980
You could just say you

00:15:35.041 --> 00:15:36.081
follow me on this watch.

00:15:36.140 --> 00:15:37.062
Now I'm following now.

00:15:37.221 --> 00:15:37.741
You might have to get a

00:15:37.782 --> 00:15:38.601
separate account because if

00:15:38.621 --> 00:15:39.442
you have a couple of patients,

00:15:39.462 --> 00:15:39.903
you're doing this.

00:15:39.923 --> 00:15:40.624
You don't want to be getting

00:15:40.663 --> 00:15:41.244
dings all day.

00:15:41.524 --> 00:15:42.403
But that's how you'd be able

00:15:42.423 --> 00:15:45.405
to organize this and see their data.

00:15:45.566 --> 00:15:46.947
And you can I'm sure there's

00:15:46.966 --> 00:15:47.767
an easy way to be able to

00:15:47.846 --> 00:15:49.067
swap the deeper data.

00:15:49.591 --> 00:15:49.870
Yes,

00:15:49.990 --> 00:15:51.673
I have another quick story that

00:15:51.913 --> 00:15:53.933
confirms my bias around the

00:15:53.994 --> 00:15:56.375
human component to this versus virtual.

00:15:56.775 --> 00:15:58.357
I have a buddy, Juan Gonzalez.

00:15:58.378 --> 00:15:59.818
He lives in, I think he's in Spain.

00:15:59.859 --> 00:16:00.859
He was in Spain, then Germany,

00:16:00.879 --> 00:16:01.720
and now he's back in Spain.

00:16:02.259 --> 00:16:03.201
And we did the same thing on

00:16:03.280 --> 00:16:03.881
Apple Watches.

00:16:03.922 --> 00:16:06.884
We connected our workouts or whatever,

00:16:06.943 --> 00:16:07.124
right?

00:16:07.163 --> 00:16:08.784
So like, what is it?

00:16:09.004 --> 00:16:09.586
They compare,

00:16:09.686 --> 00:16:10.986
is it calories per day or

00:16:11.027 --> 00:16:12.008
what's the main metric?

00:16:12.028 --> 00:16:13.168
Yeah, something like that.

00:16:14.068 --> 00:16:17.033
And so he said it to like, I don't know,

00:16:17.712 --> 00:16:18.975
a thousand a day or

00:16:19.215 --> 00:16:20.135
whatever the number was.

00:16:20.676 --> 00:16:22.258
And we did like a challenge together.

00:16:22.298 --> 00:16:23.158
So it's like he and I,

00:16:23.339 --> 00:16:25.341
he versus I. And you guys know,

00:16:25.400 --> 00:16:26.142
I don't know if you,

00:16:26.162 --> 00:16:26.763
I think you guys know,

00:16:26.783 --> 00:16:28.144
but if you don't know, now you know,

00:16:28.325 --> 00:16:29.326
I'm super competitive.

00:16:29.846 --> 00:16:33.070
And I absolutely did more.

00:16:33.710 --> 00:16:34.770
on purpose when we were

00:16:34.791 --> 00:16:36.370
doing these I made sure

00:16:36.410 --> 00:16:37.371
like and he's ahead of us

00:16:37.392 --> 00:16:38.572
whatever spain is like six

00:16:38.611 --> 00:16:40.212
hours ahead or something so

00:16:40.452 --> 00:16:41.153
I would wake up and he

00:16:41.173 --> 00:16:42.014
would like already be doing

00:16:42.053 --> 00:16:42.953
stuff and I'd be like oh

00:16:43.053 --> 00:16:43.914
and like this is when I was

00:16:43.934 --> 00:16:44.894
seeing patients so I was

00:16:44.955 --> 00:16:45.895
walking around seeing

00:16:45.936 --> 00:16:47.475
patients and coming home

00:16:47.495 --> 00:16:48.496
and working out or running

00:16:48.636 --> 00:16:51.138
extra just to beat him and

00:16:51.197 --> 00:16:53.038
I beat him every single challenge

00:16:54.495 --> 00:16:55.436
And he won.

00:16:55.475 --> 00:16:56.756
If you're listening, I love you, man.

00:16:56.777 --> 00:16:59.058
But do you want to hear a funny way of.

00:17:00.139 --> 00:17:02.880
But real quick, if this was like, you know,

00:17:03.381 --> 00:17:05.903
Marty, the Apple bot versus me,

00:17:05.963 --> 00:17:07.825
like it's not going to move

00:17:07.884 --> 00:17:10.426
me to run more or wake up

00:17:10.467 --> 00:17:11.948
more and go walk and move more.

00:17:12.028 --> 00:17:12.488
I don't think.

00:17:13.088 --> 00:17:14.549
And I'm and I'm super active.

00:17:14.890 --> 00:17:15.631
I will tell you, though,

00:17:15.671 --> 00:17:17.251
Peloton and Apple have both

00:17:17.512 --> 00:17:19.974
figured out that sometimes – well,

00:17:19.994 --> 00:17:20.915
different levers motivate

00:17:20.935 --> 00:17:21.876
different people because

00:17:21.896 --> 00:17:22.718
there are awards.

00:17:22.738 --> 00:17:24.199
There's medals you can win.

00:17:24.499 --> 00:17:25.961
And I did the close your

00:17:26.601 --> 00:17:28.442
move ring thirty-two times

00:17:28.462 --> 00:17:29.364
in the last thirty-two days,

00:17:29.403 --> 00:17:30.164
so I get that thing.

00:17:30.464 --> 00:17:31.045
But do you want to hear a

00:17:31.125 --> 00:17:32.507
funny way about – there was

00:17:32.527 --> 00:17:34.429
a group of people who live on a street,

00:17:34.449 --> 00:17:35.249
a cul-de-sac,

00:17:35.269 --> 00:17:36.790
a bunch of families somewhere.

00:17:37.391 --> 00:17:39.912
and they all connected their apps, right?

00:17:39.932 --> 00:17:41.313
So they, all their watches are connected.

00:17:41.353 --> 00:17:42.712
So when one of them starts to work out,

00:17:42.772 --> 00:17:43.453
everybody knows.

00:17:44.114 --> 00:17:45.454
And these people would connect.

00:17:46.055 --> 00:17:46.954
And whenever a husband and

00:17:46.994 --> 00:17:47.955
wife would be together,

00:17:48.336 --> 00:17:49.957
they'd select wrestling.

00:17:50.717 --> 00:17:51.977
So the whole neighborhood

00:17:52.037 --> 00:17:53.278
knew who was wrestling and

00:17:53.317 --> 00:17:54.878
how long and how many calories.

00:17:55.219 --> 00:17:56.298
So it's just taking its

00:17:56.378 --> 00:17:57.460
gamification of movement.

00:17:57.579 --> 00:17:58.920
Yes.

00:17:58.960 --> 00:17:59.961
So this segment,

00:17:59.980 --> 00:18:02.061
we're talking about AI health coaches.

00:18:02.082 --> 00:18:02.521
Is that what

00:18:03.023 --> 00:18:05.765
yeah apple you know okay so

00:18:05.785 --> 00:18:07.086
have you guys heard gary

00:18:07.125 --> 00:18:09.926
v's position on by the the

00:18:10.007 --> 00:18:11.367
people who are being born

00:18:11.407 --> 00:18:13.248
right now like dave's kids

00:18:13.288 --> 00:18:16.029
generation most likely

00:18:16.109 --> 00:18:17.809
somebody in that generation

00:18:17.890 --> 00:18:19.010
is going to marry

00:18:19.090 --> 00:18:21.711
officially marry this is a like

00:18:22.230 --> 00:18:24.330
have a marriage between a

00:18:24.411 --> 00:18:26.412
human and some sort of

00:18:26.491 --> 00:18:27.451
artificial intelligence.

00:18:27.491 --> 00:18:28.593
Have you heard this position?

00:18:29.073 --> 00:18:30.354
No, but it doesn't surprise me,

00:18:30.394 --> 00:18:31.094
but it does creep me out.

00:18:31.114 --> 00:18:31.894
I mean, I just don't understand.

00:18:32.035 --> 00:18:34.336
Yeah, well, so, you know,

00:18:34.375 --> 00:18:36.777
to think that a human, and I believe it,

00:18:36.856 --> 00:18:38.156
can have such a deep

00:18:38.217 --> 00:18:40.238
emotional connection to a robot,

00:18:40.838 --> 00:18:43.480
a robot that understands the dopamine,

00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:45.421
understands emotion,

00:18:45.560 --> 00:18:48.021
understands physiology, can say things,

00:18:48.061 --> 00:18:48.701
do things.

00:18:49.142 --> 00:18:50.163
And of course, you know,

00:18:51.621 --> 00:18:52.740
This is just like,

00:18:52.840 --> 00:18:54.781
if you can have that kind of connection,

00:18:54.821 --> 00:18:56.343
you can have a robot that

00:18:56.403 --> 00:18:59.023
can motivate you to exercise more,

00:18:59.183 --> 00:19:00.624
eat healthier, do whatever.

00:19:02.325 --> 00:19:04.006
And like you, I agree.

00:19:04.086 --> 00:19:05.746
I believe that humans are

00:19:05.786 --> 00:19:06.767
going to connect.

00:19:07.186 --> 00:19:08.106
There is a theory,

00:19:08.406 --> 00:19:09.387
I think we discussed it

00:19:09.488 --> 00:19:10.448
once a long time ago,

00:19:10.667 --> 00:19:13.849
that why haven't other,

00:19:13.890 --> 00:19:15.190
if you believe in aliens,

00:19:15.250 --> 00:19:17.171
why haven't they populated the universe?

00:19:17.651 --> 00:19:18.971
There is a theory that as

00:19:19.011 --> 00:19:20.833
you grow technologically,

00:19:21.273 --> 00:19:22.193
you don't go out.

00:19:22.855 --> 00:19:24.957
You have no desire to go out anymore.

00:19:24.997 --> 00:19:26.017
You go in.

00:19:26.577 --> 00:19:28.259
And so if there are aliens

00:19:28.318 --> 00:19:29.140
on other planets,

00:19:29.180 --> 00:19:30.221
the whole idea is that they

00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:31.662
are so satisfied and happy

00:19:31.701 --> 00:19:33.603
that they just stay within themselves.

00:19:35.203 --> 00:19:36.724
That's a whole different conversation.

00:19:36.785 --> 00:19:39.047
But I definitely think that

00:19:39.166 --> 00:19:40.448
you can have such a deep

00:19:40.508 --> 00:19:42.190
connection to artificial

00:19:42.230 --> 00:19:45.432
intelligence that you want to marry it.

00:19:45.785 --> 00:19:47.347
Like, it's just incredible.

00:19:47.508 --> 00:19:50.011
It's not creepy at all.

00:19:50.291 --> 00:19:51.294
I want to use it to motivate

00:19:51.314 --> 00:19:52.836
people to be a little healthier.

00:19:53.826 --> 00:19:56.967
Maybe not wrestle with it.

00:19:57.107 --> 00:19:57.948
What else is on your mind?

00:19:57.968 --> 00:20:01.509
But I think the Apple, the Google,

00:20:01.569 --> 00:20:02.569
the Amazons,

00:20:02.970 --> 00:20:04.911
they do move the needle in

00:20:05.310 --> 00:20:06.071
sort of everything.

00:20:06.092 --> 00:20:07.771
So it's like, why is Apple, Dave,

00:20:07.791 --> 00:20:08.673
I think you were saying a minute ago,

00:20:08.732 --> 00:20:10.334
why Apple has iPad and phones?

00:20:10.993 --> 00:20:13.315
Why are they getting into this?

00:20:13.434 --> 00:20:14.434
I think they're smart enough

00:20:14.454 --> 00:20:15.455
to know that they need to

00:20:15.476 --> 00:20:16.496
be doing other things.

00:20:16.717 --> 00:20:17.817
They need to have a project

00:20:17.936 --> 00:20:19.278
mulberry in like every

00:20:19.337 --> 00:20:21.778
vertical or crossing verticals.

00:20:22.479 --> 00:20:25.501
Um, or else if someone else develops it,

00:20:25.541 --> 00:20:26.803
if Amazon were to develop it,

00:20:26.843 --> 00:20:28.002
you're light years behind

00:20:28.023 --> 00:20:28.663
by the time I started.

00:20:28.703 --> 00:20:29.884
So you need to sort of have

00:20:30.065 --> 00:20:32.467
R and D running on all these things.

00:20:32.727 --> 00:20:34.008
So, I mean,

00:20:34.048 --> 00:20:35.009
didn't jobs say they're not a

00:20:35.048 --> 00:20:36.170
computer company, right?

00:20:36.309 --> 00:20:37.290
They're like an idea company

00:20:37.310 --> 00:20:37.851
or something like that.

00:20:37.871 --> 00:20:38.050
So like,

00:20:38.070 --> 00:20:39.471
that's a little how you look at it.

00:20:39.511 --> 00:20:41.354
And I think Bezos is a, you know,

00:20:41.394 --> 00:20:43.615
disciple of jobs and philosophy.

00:20:43.655 --> 00:20:45.096
They all sort of look at it like that.

00:20:45.477 --> 00:20:46.478
So I think these technology

00:20:46.538 --> 00:20:49.140
companies are like, we are human beings.

00:20:50.491 --> 00:20:50.711
You know,

00:20:50.872 --> 00:20:52.553
race companies and we have to be

00:20:52.633 --> 00:20:53.553
all things to all people

00:20:53.573 --> 00:20:54.553
because we don't know.

00:20:55.114 --> 00:20:56.233
Maybe someone invents like

00:20:56.253 --> 00:20:57.493
an implantable eye thing

00:20:57.515 --> 00:20:58.494
where we don't need iPads

00:20:58.535 --> 00:20:59.134
anymore because I have a

00:20:59.214 --> 00:21:00.355
screen on my retina.

00:21:00.455 --> 00:21:01.816
Like and then what do we do about iPads?

00:21:01.836 --> 00:21:02.115
Nothing.

00:21:03.176 --> 00:21:05.017
So there there is a contact

00:21:05.096 --> 00:21:06.897
lens that has been developed.

00:21:07.577 --> 00:21:09.641
that sits on the eyeball

00:21:09.681 --> 00:21:11.584
that displays a screen that

00:21:11.624 --> 00:21:13.105
you can see the limitation

00:21:13.145 --> 00:21:15.128
to that right now is the

00:21:15.189 --> 00:21:17.172
heat production and the battery life.

00:21:17.673 --> 00:21:19.576
But like that already exists.

00:21:19.675 --> 00:21:20.576
It's already there.

00:21:21.298 --> 00:21:23.801
Going back real quick to a Gary V is, um,

00:21:24.385 --> 00:21:25.626
He was the first person I

00:21:25.666 --> 00:21:27.428
heard say Instagram is

00:21:27.488 --> 00:21:28.989
probably the number one

00:21:29.069 --> 00:21:31.131
most successful fitness app

00:21:31.671 --> 00:21:33.011
ever created on the planet.

00:21:33.593 --> 00:21:34.894
Because Instagram

00:21:35.034 --> 00:21:36.494
understands and has gotten

00:21:36.555 --> 00:21:39.616
humans to go do things in nature,

00:21:39.696 --> 00:21:41.419
physical fitness activity

00:21:41.878 --> 00:21:43.460
that if they couldn't share

00:21:43.519 --> 00:21:44.701
the photo or the video,

00:21:44.760 --> 00:21:45.642
they wouldn't do it.

00:21:46.351 --> 00:21:47.531
You know, so again,

00:21:47.612 --> 00:21:48.553
I think when we're thinking

00:21:48.593 --> 00:21:49.614
about motivation,

00:21:49.693 --> 00:21:51.275
we have to go outside of

00:21:51.355 --> 00:21:52.336
what we're used to.

00:21:52.955 --> 00:21:54.576
And there are going to be

00:21:54.636 --> 00:21:56.019
motivators that we're not

00:21:56.058 --> 00:21:57.380
even considering right now.

00:21:57.940 --> 00:21:58.800
I mean, the event,

00:21:59.101 --> 00:22:00.221
so I'm in Long Island right now.

00:22:00.642 --> 00:22:01.682
And the event that I was at

00:22:01.722 --> 00:22:02.784
yesterday is for a

00:22:02.864 --> 00:22:04.325
nonprofit called Man Cave Health.

00:22:04.785 --> 00:22:06.125
And Man Cave Health is just like, hey,

00:22:06.165 --> 00:22:08.248
listen, prostate cancer is bad.

00:22:08.647 --> 00:22:09.788
And getting tested for it is

00:22:09.848 --> 00:22:11.170
actually not as bad as it used to be.

00:22:11.471 --> 00:22:12.310
I mean, we used to, you know,

00:22:12.330 --> 00:22:12.731
all the jokes.

00:22:12.811 --> 00:22:14.393
I heard they don't do the finger anymore.

00:22:15.028 --> 00:22:15.890
They don't do the finger anymore.

00:22:16.069 --> 00:22:16.289
Yeah.

00:22:16.670 --> 00:22:17.130
It's a PC.

00:22:17.611 --> 00:22:18.611
I did a blood test yesterday.

00:22:18.730 --> 00:22:19.211
I got tested.

00:22:19.571 --> 00:22:20.853
It took me longer to sign

00:22:20.893 --> 00:22:22.953
the waiver than it did to do the test,

00:22:23.114 --> 00:22:24.634
to the blood test, right?

00:22:24.674 --> 00:22:26.135
So Man Cave Health is so

00:22:26.195 --> 00:22:27.217
smart because they

00:22:27.336 --> 00:22:29.617
understand that sometimes

00:22:30.137 --> 00:22:31.778
the direct route would be

00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:33.800
hospitals should have marketing teams,

00:22:34.020 --> 00:22:34.401
and they do.

00:22:34.701 --> 00:22:35.741
So then why can't they market?

00:22:35.961 --> 00:22:37.383
Because they're hospital marketing teams.

00:22:39.044 --> 00:22:40.724
So Chris at Man Cave Health

00:22:40.984 --> 00:22:42.465
sees this and is a smart guy.

00:22:42.625 --> 00:22:43.626
Chris has no medical background.

00:22:44.570 --> 00:22:45.172
Right.

00:22:45.192 --> 00:22:45.711
Doesn't understand.

00:22:46.152 --> 00:22:46.772
He doesn't care.

00:22:47.452 --> 00:22:49.174
What he cares about is he's like, well,

00:22:49.194 --> 00:22:50.154
where do dudes hang out?

00:22:50.935 --> 00:22:51.036
Well,

00:22:51.056 --> 00:22:52.517
we want dudes to come to the hospital.

00:22:52.596 --> 00:22:53.938
We want them to get tested.

00:22:54.398 --> 00:22:55.980
Chris is like, you got to go to dudes.

00:22:56.000 --> 00:22:57.201
Let's go to the Pocono five hundred.

00:22:57.361 --> 00:22:58.261
Let's go to the Rose Bowl.

00:22:58.422 --> 00:22:59.482
Let's go to NBA games.

00:22:59.883 --> 00:23:00.683
Let's go there.

00:23:01.124 --> 00:23:02.125
And then what do we do?

00:23:02.365 --> 00:23:03.405
Bring lab coats and

00:23:03.425 --> 00:23:04.346
stethoscopes and needles.

00:23:04.567 --> 00:23:05.968
No, dude, not yet.

00:23:06.028 --> 00:23:06.208
Like,

00:23:06.468 --> 00:23:08.890
let's do cool swag and people and

00:23:08.950 --> 00:23:10.030
music and make it cool.

00:23:10.171 --> 00:23:10.971
Hey, what are you about?

00:23:11.491 --> 00:23:13.133
We're about making sure one

00:23:13.153 --> 00:23:14.054
out of six dudes don't get

00:23:14.534 --> 00:23:15.115
prostate cancer.

00:23:15.134 --> 00:23:16.295
It's like, well, I'm about that.

00:23:17.016 --> 00:23:18.076
But if you had a poster on

00:23:18.096 --> 00:23:21.638
the wall at a hospital, it doesn't land.

00:23:21.919 --> 00:23:23.200
So doing the direct route,

00:23:23.740 --> 00:23:25.541
we have tried that pretty

00:23:25.582 --> 00:23:26.541
much in everything, right?

00:23:26.561 --> 00:23:28.002
We've over-signed science.

00:23:28.284 --> 00:23:29.785
Sometimes you've got to gamify science.

00:23:29.924 --> 00:23:31.385
Why is Instagram so great at that?

00:23:31.586 --> 00:23:33.807
Because we didn't know it going in.

00:23:33.826 --> 00:23:35.188
That wasn't the goal.

00:23:35.208 --> 00:23:36.429
The goal was to share pictures.

00:23:37.128 --> 00:23:38.190
Humans took it and they're like,

00:23:38.210 --> 00:23:39.131
what do I want to make this about?

00:23:40.559 --> 00:23:41.781
I want to make it about me.

00:23:42.123 --> 00:23:43.665
And then what do I want to make it about?

00:23:43.705 --> 00:23:44.046
So yeah,

00:23:44.126 --> 00:23:45.269
I think going the direct route

00:23:45.588 --> 00:23:46.069
doesn't work.

00:23:46.451 --> 00:23:47.532
You have to bang it off the wall.

00:23:47.553 --> 00:23:48.413
It's a ricochet idea.

00:23:50.063 --> 00:23:51.143
Speaking of hospitals,

00:23:51.202 --> 00:23:52.183
what do you guys think of

00:23:52.284 --> 00:23:54.403
Dana Strauss's post on

00:23:54.444 --> 00:23:55.525
LinkedIn yesterday?

00:23:56.144 --> 00:23:57.806
She was talking about the

00:23:57.885 --> 00:23:59.905
basically the hospital experience,

00:24:00.405 --> 00:24:02.346
how it's working against

00:24:02.487 --> 00:24:04.367
everything we want to do in health care,

00:24:04.768 --> 00:24:06.669
how basically when you go

00:24:06.709 --> 00:24:07.528
into the hospital,

00:24:07.588 --> 00:24:08.588
you're admitted for some

00:24:08.628 --> 00:24:10.430
sort of medical emergency or condition.

00:24:11.029 --> 00:24:12.391
You're strapped to a bed.

00:24:12.431 --> 00:24:13.231
You can't get up.

00:24:13.271 --> 00:24:14.492
You can't move around.

00:24:14.794 --> 00:24:16.655
I had commented on it saying, yeah,

00:24:16.675 --> 00:24:17.155
it's true.

00:24:17.576 --> 00:24:19.498
Every time I've got an older family member,

00:24:19.518 --> 00:24:21.000
they get admitted for whatever.

00:24:22.361 --> 00:24:23.882
The bed is as big as the room.

00:24:24.402 --> 00:24:25.823
There's no place to move around.

00:24:26.303 --> 00:24:29.164
You've got lights,

00:24:29.204 --> 00:24:30.905
you've got people coming in and out,

00:24:30.986 --> 00:24:32.186
like taking your blood,

00:24:32.227 --> 00:24:33.146
doing all this stuff.

00:24:33.707 --> 00:24:35.167
The hospital is virtually

00:24:35.228 --> 00:24:36.769
the worst environment to

00:24:36.788 --> 00:24:38.549
try to heal or recover.

00:24:39.390 --> 00:24:40.830
The food's still terrible,

00:24:40.990 --> 00:24:42.011
even though they're trying

00:24:42.092 --> 00:24:43.551
hard to make it better.

00:24:44.173 --> 00:24:45.673
When you let a hospital

00:24:45.733 --> 00:24:47.433
create a healing experience,

00:24:47.474 --> 00:24:49.675
they mess it up every single time.

00:24:50.756 --> 00:24:51.156
And it's just,

00:24:51.176 --> 00:24:53.558
it works against health and wellness and,

00:24:53.659 --> 00:24:55.320
you know, independence.

00:24:56.201 --> 00:24:57.722
It was a great post by Dana.

00:24:57.742 --> 00:24:57.863
Yeah.

00:24:58.844 --> 00:25:00.085
If you were to design a really good,

00:25:00.125 --> 00:25:01.046
good hearing environment,

00:25:01.326 --> 00:25:02.307
a healing environment,

00:25:02.366 --> 00:25:03.788
it would not be a hospital.

00:25:04.068 --> 00:25:05.750
It would be the opposite of a hospital.

00:25:06.069 --> 00:25:06.490
Of course.

00:25:06.691 --> 00:25:08.112
You can't get sunlight.

00:25:08.132 --> 00:25:09.554
You can't go outside.

00:25:09.733 --> 00:25:09.814
Yeah.

00:25:10.423 --> 00:25:10.604
Yeah.

00:25:10.763 --> 00:25:11.325
Asking someone.

00:25:11.704 --> 00:25:12.445
I had parents, you know,

00:25:12.465 --> 00:25:13.307
in the hospital last couple

00:25:13.326 --> 00:25:14.988
of years and like asking, like,

00:25:15.148 --> 00:25:16.009
can my dad go outside?

00:25:16.028 --> 00:25:17.411
Like, absolutely not.

00:25:17.810 --> 00:25:18.571
You want to know why?

00:25:18.932 --> 00:25:19.752
Nothing to do with health.

00:25:20.073 --> 00:25:21.074
Everything to do with lawyers.

00:25:21.355 --> 00:25:22.915
Well, if he falls on the way out,

00:25:23.135 --> 00:25:24.257
liability, right?

00:25:24.277 --> 00:25:25.117
You don't get anything for

00:25:25.157 --> 00:25:25.878
free in the hospital.

00:25:25.898 --> 00:25:26.700
But what do you get for what

00:25:26.720 --> 00:25:28.480
is the what are the two things you get?

00:25:28.521 --> 00:25:29.442
You get pairs of them.

00:25:30.123 --> 00:25:31.163
in the hospital for free.

00:25:31.202 --> 00:25:33.624
You get those ridiculous, no skin socks.

00:25:33.983 --> 00:25:34.344
Why?

00:25:34.523 --> 00:25:35.523
Because my feet are cold.

00:25:35.604 --> 00:25:36.825
No, because I don't want you to fall.

00:25:36.884 --> 00:25:38.545
And if I have, we know that, you know,

00:25:38.644 --> 00:25:39.724
we reduce fall rest by

00:25:39.744 --> 00:25:41.226
forty percent or making numbers up.

00:25:41.246 --> 00:25:42.945
But if you have the stupid socks on.

00:25:43.346 --> 00:25:43.807
But yeah.

00:25:43.906 --> 00:25:45.207
So so what?

00:25:45.227 --> 00:25:46.646
So maybe we go down this rabbit hole.

00:25:46.707 --> 00:25:47.547
What what would.

00:25:47.827 --> 00:25:48.807
Well, they're doing this.

00:25:50.442 --> 00:25:52.083
It would be smaller, private,

00:25:52.143 --> 00:25:53.284
bougie hospitals that you

00:25:53.304 --> 00:25:55.246
have to pay a concierge fee for.

00:25:55.645 --> 00:25:55.987
That's the thing.

00:25:56.007 --> 00:25:58.489
I was going to say, in a community,

00:25:58.588 --> 00:26:01.050
and there's thousands or

00:26:01.090 --> 00:26:01.811
tens of thousands or

00:26:01.852 --> 00:26:02.512
hundreds of thousands of

00:26:02.553 --> 00:26:04.213
people in certain communities or cities,

00:26:04.694 --> 00:26:05.434
and the hospitals were

00:26:05.474 --> 00:26:06.896
obviously created as a way like,

00:26:07.196 --> 00:26:08.337
this is the location where

00:26:08.357 --> 00:26:09.919
you go if you have an infection.

00:26:10.779 --> 00:26:12.121
uh you fall you get hit by a

00:26:12.161 --> 00:26:13.260
car fall out of a tree you

00:26:13.280 --> 00:26:14.501
get a ma you know major

00:26:14.602 --> 00:26:16.442
infection whatever and like

00:26:16.482 --> 00:26:17.423
that's the location where

00:26:17.502 --> 00:26:18.683
everyone goes and they just

00:26:18.903 --> 00:26:20.044
like you said jokingly like

00:26:20.364 --> 00:26:20.964
everyone kind of gets

00:26:21.005 --> 00:26:22.164
strapped to the bed because

00:26:22.565 --> 00:26:24.145
like sit here you we know

00:26:24.165 --> 00:26:25.307
you're gonna be here for

00:26:25.326 --> 00:26:26.146
whenever we need to like

00:26:26.227 --> 00:26:27.127
run another test check your

00:26:27.147 --> 00:26:28.008
blood pressure administer

00:26:28.028 --> 00:26:29.249
medication whatever we we

00:26:29.269 --> 00:26:30.088
know exactly where you're

00:26:30.108 --> 00:26:31.249
gonna be you're in room two

00:26:31.308 --> 00:26:32.829
oh one or whatever right

00:26:32.890 --> 00:26:33.671
and just the way it is and

00:26:33.711 --> 00:26:34.351
the only thing that's gonna

00:26:34.371 --> 00:26:35.351
change is if yeah if you

00:26:35.371 --> 00:26:36.551
have the financial resources to

00:26:37.211 --> 00:26:38.834
you know, join some concierge practice.

00:26:38.854 --> 00:26:40.154
Some of these concierge

00:26:40.174 --> 00:26:40.994
practices in the city,

00:26:41.035 --> 00:26:42.696
like they'll do home visits,

00:26:43.356 --> 00:26:44.557
physicians doing home visits.

00:26:45.419 --> 00:26:46.579
And I've walked into a

00:26:46.619 --> 00:26:48.020
couple of times in the New

00:26:48.040 --> 00:26:48.601
York City area.

00:26:48.942 --> 00:26:50.482
I walked into a house call

00:26:51.163 --> 00:26:52.884
and the patient has a full

00:26:52.984 --> 00:26:55.507
on hospital bed, beeps, wires,

00:26:55.626 --> 00:26:56.047
everything.

00:26:56.106 --> 00:26:58.509
And I'm just blown away at

00:26:59.049 --> 00:26:59.930
some of the money people

00:26:59.950 --> 00:27:02.392
spend when their loved one is seventy,

00:27:02.432 --> 00:27:03.673
eighty, ninety, whatever years old.

00:27:04.513 --> 00:27:05.535
They're trying to keep them alive.

00:27:05.615 --> 00:27:06.375
And it's basically like a

00:27:06.394 --> 00:27:08.375
hospital room in their home.

00:27:09.336 --> 00:27:10.938
Takes money, takes financial resources.

00:27:10.978 --> 00:27:11.857
But that's, you know,

00:27:11.877 --> 00:27:12.999
that's the only different

00:27:13.038 --> 00:27:14.380
like that's the only way to

00:27:14.539 --> 00:27:15.280
try to do it differently

00:27:15.340 --> 00:27:17.382
other than like a big hospital.

00:27:17.402 --> 00:27:18.422
You'd have to have like an

00:27:18.541 --> 00:27:20.263
urban care sized mini

00:27:20.284 --> 00:27:21.544
hospital for people that

00:27:21.584 --> 00:27:22.265
can actually afford it.

00:27:23.980 --> 00:27:25.301
And that would be expensive.

00:27:25.321 --> 00:27:26.142
If you have money,

00:27:26.481 --> 00:27:27.782
people will give it to you

00:27:27.863 --> 00:27:28.844
if you give them a reason.

00:27:29.304 --> 00:27:31.685
These are Ignite Medical Resorts.

00:27:32.207 --> 00:27:33.468
So this is what we're talking about.

00:27:33.488 --> 00:27:35.689
This is luxury recovery.

00:27:36.549 --> 00:27:37.150
Yep.

00:27:37.170 --> 00:27:38.911
They have results all over the place.

00:27:38.951 --> 00:27:39.471
Looking like they're

00:27:39.491 --> 00:27:41.093
starting in Texas in the Midwest.

00:27:42.134 --> 00:27:43.875
And let's see what their

00:27:43.954 --> 00:27:45.496
specialty clinic programs are.

00:27:45.916 --> 00:27:46.497
State-of-the-art.

00:27:46.777 --> 00:27:47.417
So this is like...

00:27:48.143 --> 00:27:50.325
what any like forward

00:27:50.365 --> 00:27:52.066
thinking PT or healthcare

00:27:52.086 --> 00:27:53.326
provider would want,

00:27:53.708 --> 00:27:55.749
but orthopedic recovery program,

00:27:56.170 --> 00:27:57.049
state-of-the-art equipment.

00:27:57.109 --> 00:27:58.151
It's not even saying like what,

00:27:58.971 --> 00:28:00.573
what issues like rapid

00:28:00.613 --> 00:28:01.733
stroke recovery program.

00:28:01.794 --> 00:28:01.993
Okay.

00:28:02.013 --> 00:28:02.515
This is good.

00:28:02.795 --> 00:28:03.776
But yeah, if you have the money,

00:28:03.915 --> 00:28:05.336
they're like, come here, look,

00:28:05.356 --> 00:28:08.519
they're using neuro neuro rehab VR.

00:28:08.539 --> 00:28:11.041
That's Vita Samarati cardiac recovery.

00:28:11.061 --> 00:28:12.823
So orthopedics stroke,

00:28:13.304 --> 00:28:16.727
cardiac pulmonary wound wound care,

00:28:16.747 --> 00:28:16.846
right?

00:28:17.990 --> 00:28:19.651
in-house dialysis so they're

00:28:19.671 --> 00:28:21.311
saying these are these are

00:28:21.332 --> 00:28:23.232
these are wellness spas

00:28:23.794 --> 00:28:25.535
right medical spas if

00:28:25.555 --> 00:28:27.955
you've got the money they

00:28:27.976 --> 00:28:30.718
will take you so we have a

00:28:30.738 --> 00:28:31.999
place people will pay a

00:28:32.019 --> 00:28:32.818
hundred bucks to see a

00:28:32.858 --> 00:28:33.920
physical therapist but

00:28:33.940 --> 00:28:35.280
they'll pay thirty grand to

00:28:35.320 --> 00:28:37.602
recover from something yes

00:28:38.281 --> 00:28:39.482
we have a place like that

00:28:39.682 --> 00:28:41.304
actually a mile and a half

00:28:41.344 --> 00:28:42.265
down from my street

00:28:44.922 --> 00:28:46.123
They promote exactly.

00:28:46.163 --> 00:28:48.265
It's not that company, but it's very,

00:28:48.305 --> 00:28:48.965
very similar.

00:28:49.185 --> 00:28:50.406
You look on the website.

00:28:50.968 --> 00:28:52.388
The photos are amazing.

00:28:52.848 --> 00:28:54.431
The amenities are incredible.

00:28:54.451 --> 00:28:55.412
You can't believe it.

00:28:55.432 --> 00:28:56.313
Food's got to be good.

00:28:56.353 --> 00:28:58.054
Food's got to be better.

00:28:58.095 --> 00:28:59.756
They've changed ownership

00:28:59.836 --> 00:29:01.637
like three or four times already.

00:29:02.201 --> 00:29:02.362
Oh,

00:29:02.682 --> 00:29:04.884
it's one of those things where the

00:29:04.963 --> 00:29:06.546
concept is there,

00:29:07.086 --> 00:29:08.287
but then they fill it with

00:29:08.326 --> 00:29:09.307
a bunch of people who have

00:29:09.327 --> 00:29:10.308
been in the health care

00:29:10.348 --> 00:29:11.589
system for too long.

00:29:12.131 --> 00:29:13.672
And they just turn it into

00:29:14.211 --> 00:29:15.894
the model that we're trying

00:29:15.913 --> 00:29:16.653
to get away from.

00:29:17.214 --> 00:29:19.017
Like that's an example where

00:29:19.076 --> 00:29:20.857
you need to go to the Ritz Carlton.

00:29:21.298 --> 00:29:22.759
You need to recruit people

00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:23.980
out of that environment.

00:29:24.381 --> 00:29:26.123
You need to go to other

00:29:26.163 --> 00:29:27.443
businesses that have

00:29:27.585 --> 00:29:29.026
nothing to do with health care.

00:29:29.487 --> 00:29:30.988
Pull the culture out.

00:29:31.388 --> 00:29:32.569
Pull the people out.

00:29:33.393 --> 00:29:35.074
Do not put doctors that have

00:29:35.094 --> 00:29:35.974
been hospitalized.

00:29:36.015 --> 00:29:37.455
Do not put nurses, aides.

00:29:37.476 --> 00:29:39.136
Do not put people with

00:29:39.156 --> 00:29:40.396
twenty years of experience

00:29:40.436 --> 00:29:42.278
into that because they will destroy it.

00:29:42.759 --> 00:29:43.859
You have to come at it

00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:44.880
completely different.

00:29:45.361 --> 00:29:46.681
And that's kind of what I've

00:29:46.721 --> 00:29:48.041
said about physical therapy.

00:29:48.423 --> 00:29:50.483
Like, don't go to, you know,

00:29:50.604 --> 00:29:51.785
trying to create a new

00:29:51.825 --> 00:29:54.046
model of care by pulling a

00:29:54.086 --> 00:29:55.086
bunch of people from the

00:29:55.126 --> 00:29:56.587
profession that already have it.

00:29:57.347 --> 00:29:57.608
Yeah,

00:29:57.648 --> 00:30:01.050
you have to go outside of the culture

00:30:01.090 --> 00:30:02.031
of physical therapy to

00:30:02.071 --> 00:30:02.913
create something that's

00:30:02.972 --> 00:30:04.173
different and better than

00:30:04.213 --> 00:30:05.934
what physical therapy is right now.

00:30:06.695 --> 00:30:06.875
Yeah.

00:30:06.955 --> 00:30:08.978
Otherwise, it's just it's it's blue.

00:30:09.538 --> 00:30:10.298
It's the thing we knew,

00:30:10.318 --> 00:30:11.599
but now it's blue or it's

00:30:11.660 --> 00:30:13.060
green or it's lighter.

00:30:13.181 --> 00:30:15.042
It's like that's not there's

00:30:15.083 --> 00:30:15.923
no difference there.

00:30:16.042 --> 00:30:17.144
If you really want innovation,

00:30:17.163 --> 00:30:18.125
you have to go outside of

00:30:18.164 --> 00:30:18.806
the organization.

00:30:19.662 --> 00:30:21.083
What's kind of interesting is, like,

00:30:21.423 --> 00:30:22.462
we're talking about that,

00:30:23.023 --> 00:30:24.884
and then you have, like, Savannah Bananas,

00:30:24.944 --> 00:30:25.105
right?

00:30:25.164 --> 00:30:26.184
It's, like, not baseball.

00:30:26.786 --> 00:30:28.185
Baseball purists, I believe, like,

00:30:28.205 --> 00:30:28.886
it's not baseball.

00:30:28.967 --> 00:30:29.926
It's a show.

00:30:29.987 --> 00:30:34.229
It's, like, WWF, WWE, like, scripted.

00:30:34.630 --> 00:30:35.490
Maybe they know who's going

00:30:35.509 --> 00:30:36.009
to win the game.

00:30:36.190 --> 00:30:36.871
Maybe they do it on purpose.

00:30:36.891 --> 00:30:37.471
Maybe they don't know.

00:30:37.490 --> 00:30:37.871
I don't know.

00:30:37.990 --> 00:30:39.751
But, like, it's not baseball,

00:30:39.771 --> 00:30:40.952
but it's different.

00:30:41.683 --> 00:30:44.065
But Jesse Cole was a minor league pitcher,

00:30:44.424 --> 00:30:47.224
the founder, the, you know, the emcee,

00:30:47.525 --> 00:30:49.226
the leader of Savannah Bananas.

00:30:49.705 --> 00:30:51.266
He was a baseball purist.

00:30:51.705 --> 00:30:53.386
He was a minor league pitcher.

00:30:53.426 --> 00:30:54.166
He was drafted.

00:30:54.247 --> 00:30:55.166
He I think he blew out his

00:30:55.186 --> 00:30:57.288
shoulder and then he could

00:30:57.327 --> 00:30:57.948
no longer play.

00:30:57.988 --> 00:31:00.008
And then eventually they, you know, risk,

00:31:00.228 --> 00:31:00.388
you know,

00:31:00.409 --> 00:31:01.888
mortgage mortgage their home or

00:31:01.929 --> 00:31:02.868
whatever their whole lives

00:31:03.368 --> 00:31:04.128
and bought the Savannah

00:31:04.148 --> 00:31:05.150
Bananas and then eventually

00:31:05.190 --> 00:31:06.069
turned into what it is now.

00:31:07.085 --> 00:31:08.226
So I think sometimes it's like,

00:31:08.606 --> 00:31:10.888
you do need a little bit of

00:31:10.949 --> 00:31:13.991
the previous world and a

00:31:14.192 --> 00:31:16.074
new direction and new folks

00:31:16.134 --> 00:31:17.955
from other worlds to create

00:31:17.976 --> 00:31:18.497
the new thing.

00:31:18.517 --> 00:31:19.597
You need like a little bit

00:31:19.657 --> 00:31:21.380
of the physical therapy or

00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:23.301
the healthcare or the hospital experience

00:31:23.981 --> 00:31:24.962
like maybe, I don't know, Tony,

00:31:24.982 --> 00:31:26.344
you gotta like, maybe you pluck the,

00:31:26.463 --> 00:31:27.403
you cherry pick the things

00:31:27.423 --> 00:31:30.006
that are like tried and true and needed,

00:31:30.046 --> 00:31:31.646
whatever needed.

00:31:31.747 --> 00:31:32.527
And then, and then you,

00:31:32.547 --> 00:31:34.929
but then you go into hospitality or you,

00:31:34.969 --> 00:31:35.328
you know, you,

00:31:35.429 --> 00:31:36.470
you recruit from other

00:31:36.529 --> 00:31:38.871
worlds where they're all about clients,

00:31:38.911 --> 00:31:40.031
customer service.

00:31:40.711 --> 00:31:41.031
Wow.

00:31:41.051 --> 00:31:42.373
You know, a wow experience,

00:31:42.413 --> 00:31:43.354
a remarkable experience,

00:31:43.374 --> 00:31:43.953
that type of stuff.

00:31:44.213 --> 00:31:46.336
I think their story was if

00:31:46.395 --> 00:31:47.476
they didn't do something,

00:31:47.536 --> 00:31:48.217
they were going under.

00:31:49.076 --> 00:31:50.897
So, so people are like, he's not baseball.

00:31:50.938 --> 00:31:51.117
Okay.

00:31:51.137 --> 00:31:51.219
Uh,

00:31:52.199 --> 00:31:53.459
He just invented a new thing then,

00:31:53.739 --> 00:31:55.700
which is baseball attainment, right?

00:31:56.180 --> 00:31:58.039
Which is baseball.

00:31:58.220 --> 00:31:58.539
Again,

00:31:58.619 --> 00:32:00.359
my favorite sport growing up needed

00:32:00.380 --> 00:32:01.060
to do something different.

00:32:01.101 --> 00:32:01.961
They have a pitch clock.

00:32:02.161 --> 00:32:03.080
They have a pitch calm.

00:32:03.560 --> 00:32:04.300
They're innovating.

00:32:04.461 --> 00:32:05.961
But for the longest time,

00:32:06.321 --> 00:32:07.682
you didn't see highlight

00:32:07.721 --> 00:32:08.922
clips of major league

00:32:08.942 --> 00:32:10.201
baseball games on social

00:32:10.481 --> 00:32:12.262
because MLB helped.

00:32:12.323 --> 00:32:13.482
They were like, those are our clips.

00:32:13.502 --> 00:32:14.262
You can't use them.

00:32:14.603 --> 00:32:15.242
Dumbest move.

00:32:15.282 --> 00:32:16.363
Baseball could have set them

00:32:16.383 --> 00:32:17.262
back two decades.

00:32:17.784 --> 00:32:17.943
There's,

00:32:18.124 --> 00:32:20.263
there's going to be a real long pause.

00:32:20.284 --> 00:32:20.364
Yeah.

00:32:20.696 --> 00:32:22.259
Like when I'm sixty.

00:32:22.558 --> 00:32:22.759
Right.

00:32:22.779 --> 00:32:23.440
And the people who are

00:32:23.500 --> 00:32:25.262
twenty now are forty of

00:32:25.282 --> 00:32:26.183
people not going to games

00:32:26.503 --> 00:32:28.426
because it wasn't where they were.

00:32:29.086 --> 00:32:29.367
Right.

00:32:29.548 --> 00:32:29.867
I mean,

00:32:30.348 --> 00:32:32.491
I sat and almost missed the bus

00:32:32.612 --> 00:32:33.653
every day in middle school

00:32:34.173 --> 00:32:34.733
or high school.

00:32:34.773 --> 00:32:35.115
Sorry,

00:32:35.756 --> 00:32:38.199
because of the timing of ESPN's top ten.

00:32:39.501 --> 00:32:40.061
I couldn't leave.

00:32:40.461 --> 00:32:41.123
What am I going to talk

00:32:41.143 --> 00:32:42.182
about at the locker?

00:32:42.363 --> 00:32:43.982
Because I had to watch the top ten.

00:32:44.304 --> 00:32:45.044
But it was so close.

00:32:45.584 --> 00:32:46.324
I probably became a really

00:32:46.344 --> 00:32:47.484
good sprinter those years

00:32:47.525 --> 00:32:49.164
because I had to sprint to the bus.

00:32:49.444 --> 00:32:51.546
But that's where baseball was for me.

00:32:52.105 --> 00:32:53.246
I didn't have the speed of swipe.

00:32:53.527 --> 00:32:54.307
But now that it is,

00:32:54.346 --> 00:32:56.227
if baseball wasn't there

00:32:56.287 --> 00:32:57.928
for a good chunk of time,

00:32:58.228 --> 00:32:59.147
those people aren't going

00:32:59.167 --> 00:33:00.469
to have that ingrained in their DNA.

00:33:01.229 --> 00:33:02.190
What are the things we could

00:33:02.230 --> 00:33:03.590
be ingraining in someone's

00:33:03.631 --> 00:33:05.551
DNA to make us valuable in the future?

00:33:05.932 --> 00:33:06.952
Oh, really, really quick.

00:33:06.992 --> 00:33:08.153
Speaking about ingraining,

00:33:08.273 --> 00:33:09.474
have you noticed Tony's

00:33:09.714 --> 00:33:10.655
growing out his stubble?

00:33:10.695 --> 00:33:11.777
He looks amazing.

00:33:11.876 --> 00:33:12.376
I love it.

00:33:12.698 --> 00:33:14.578
Speaking about the fine grain,

00:33:14.618 --> 00:33:15.720
like it looks amazing.

00:33:16.019 --> 00:33:16.861
Real Harrison Forty.

00:33:17.520 --> 00:33:18.982
So two quick things.

00:33:19.643 --> 00:33:21.545
That's where the outcast, you know,

00:33:21.585 --> 00:33:22.807
you find the outcast.

00:33:22.826 --> 00:33:24.167
Like I would say the three

00:33:24.208 --> 00:33:26.450
of us are outcasts in the

00:33:26.490 --> 00:33:28.112
PT profession because we're

00:33:28.132 --> 00:33:29.772
not sitting here discussing, you know,

00:33:29.833 --> 00:33:30.875
best interventions and

00:33:30.914 --> 00:33:32.455
strategies and manipulations.

00:33:32.516 --> 00:33:34.298
And we're we're talking

00:33:34.337 --> 00:33:35.499
about the business of

00:33:35.578 --> 00:33:37.141
physical therapy as a way

00:33:37.161 --> 00:33:38.301
to improve patient care.

00:33:38.761 --> 00:33:39.762
We're not talking about the

00:33:39.823 --> 00:33:41.244
intervention of physical

00:33:41.265 --> 00:33:44.087
therapy as a way to improve patient care.

00:33:44.107 --> 00:33:46.109
The guy on stilts who's a pitcher,

00:33:46.450 --> 00:33:47.391
he was an outcast.

00:33:47.431 --> 00:33:49.712
He got you know, he couldn't make it yet.

00:33:49.772 --> 00:33:51.174
They brought him back in.

00:33:51.555 --> 00:33:54.038
So like you said, he had enough baseball,

00:33:54.097 --> 00:33:55.778
but not so much baseball

00:33:55.818 --> 00:33:56.880
that he was ingrained.

00:33:57.520 --> 00:33:58.821
I've got a baseball question.

00:33:58.862 --> 00:33:59.782
I was thinking about this on

00:33:59.803 --> 00:34:02.185
the way in and I wanted to ask, why are.

00:34:02.846 --> 00:34:06.599
Why is it a manager and not a head coach?

00:34:06.780 --> 00:34:07.904
I don't understand that.

00:34:07.944 --> 00:34:08.987
Where did that come from?

00:34:09.990 --> 00:34:10.570
It's a great question.

00:34:10.590 --> 00:34:11.152
I don't know.

00:34:11.291 --> 00:34:13.753
Isn't the manager the coach?

00:34:14.315 --> 00:34:15.335
Well, I'm going to guess.

00:34:15.355 --> 00:34:16.876
Someone's going to GPT this for me.

00:34:16.996 --> 00:34:18.918
But I believe back in the day,

00:34:19.518 --> 00:34:20.420
the person who was in

00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:22.081
charge was also a player.

00:34:22.581 --> 00:34:24.623
It was like you were a player coach,

00:34:25.043 --> 00:34:26.083
so you're a player manager.

00:34:26.344 --> 00:34:28.186
So I think it was almost like a captaincy.

00:34:28.306 --> 00:34:28.947
It was like, okay,

00:34:28.967 --> 00:34:30.007
you're playing third base,

00:34:30.067 --> 00:34:31.188
but you also make the calls

00:34:31.228 --> 00:34:32.168
on who's coming in to pitch.

00:34:32.429 --> 00:34:33.650
Because I think having an

00:34:33.809 --> 00:34:35.731
extra person on a team who

00:34:35.791 --> 00:34:39.714
just makes decisions –

00:34:38.253 --> 00:34:38.695
was like, well,

00:34:38.735 --> 00:34:40.195
let's just get the guy

00:34:40.215 --> 00:34:41.036
who's the best at me.

00:34:41.056 --> 00:34:42.259
Let's just get the nurse

00:34:42.278 --> 00:34:43.039
who's already here to be

00:34:43.059 --> 00:34:43.800
the charge nurse.

00:34:44.161 --> 00:34:45.663
So I think that would be my guess.

00:34:46.222 --> 00:34:47.364
Someone's going to look it up.

00:34:47.485 --> 00:34:48.264
Yeah, I don't know.

00:34:48.346 --> 00:34:49.646
Probably.

00:34:49.686 --> 00:34:51.469
Now, talking about the stubble, so

00:34:53.650 --> 00:34:55.211
Yes, bring it back.

00:34:55.231 --> 00:34:56.432
Here's the thing.

00:34:56.472 --> 00:34:57.893
There's a lesson behind this.

00:34:59.193 --> 00:35:00.554
So a couple of years ago,

00:35:00.614 --> 00:35:02.496
I switched to a safety razor,

00:35:02.536 --> 00:35:03.476
straight razor.

00:35:03.536 --> 00:35:05.378
Like I went with Manscaped,

00:35:05.777 --> 00:35:08.338
paid thirty bucks, got this amazing,

00:35:08.398 --> 00:35:09.619
like heavy duty.

00:35:09.719 --> 00:35:11.780
Like it felt so good in my hand.

00:35:12.221 --> 00:35:13.561
One blade shave.

00:35:14.742 --> 00:35:16.824
It fell because usually after I shave,

00:35:16.864 --> 00:35:18.724
I stick it on the top of the shower.

00:35:19.184 --> 00:35:20.226
It fell off and broke.

00:35:20.646 --> 00:35:22.367
So I was like, oh man, okay,

00:35:22.387 --> 00:35:23.487
go back on Amazon.

00:35:24.128 --> 00:35:25.869
The Manscaped was thirty dollars.

00:35:25.949 --> 00:35:27.009
I go back on Amazon,

00:35:27.048 --> 00:35:28.650
I buy a ten dollar knockoff

00:35:28.769 --> 00:35:29.630
of the Manscaped.

00:35:30.190 --> 00:35:30.670
I get it.

00:35:30.751 --> 00:35:32.391
I'm like, this is a piece of junk.

00:35:32.472 --> 00:35:33.152
It's cheap.

00:35:33.211 --> 00:35:34.032
It's lightweight.

00:35:34.072 --> 00:35:35.512
It doesn't feel good in my hand.

00:35:35.552 --> 00:35:37.434
It's like a fork that you

00:35:37.454 --> 00:35:39.235
get good like silver

00:35:39.295 --> 00:35:41.016
heavy-duty fork to eat food.

00:35:41.076 --> 00:35:41.755
It's such a better

00:35:41.795 --> 00:35:44.018
experience than a cheap plastic fork,

00:35:44.157 --> 00:35:44.498
right?

00:35:45.097 --> 00:35:46.599
So I guess this thing is a piece of junk.

00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:48.239
But I don't care.

00:35:48.320 --> 00:35:49.199
I shave once a week.

00:35:49.360 --> 00:35:53.123
So it falls off again, breaks again.

00:35:53.804 --> 00:35:56.445
Now I go back to order my third, like,

00:35:56.644 --> 00:35:57.306
razor.

00:35:57.786 --> 00:35:58.045
Well,

00:35:58.226 --> 00:36:01.168
we had a fraud alert thing called

00:36:01.268 --> 00:36:02.329
Steam Engine.

00:36:02.469 --> 00:36:03.730
A thousand dollar charge

00:36:03.769 --> 00:36:04.951
came on our credit card.

00:36:04.971 --> 00:36:05.510
Oh, my Lord.

00:36:05.771 --> 00:36:08.032
So my Amazon account is tied

00:36:08.052 --> 00:36:08.994
to a credit card.

00:36:09.014 --> 00:36:10.655
That credit card got canceled.

00:36:10.695 --> 00:36:12.215
I haven't gotten a new credit card.

00:36:12.896 --> 00:36:13.956
I haven't gotten a razor.

00:36:14.637 --> 00:36:16.918
I ordered in between.

00:36:17.541 --> 00:36:20.152
an eighteen dollar razor it

00:36:20.193 --> 00:36:21.398
hasn't come because

00:36:22.179 --> 00:36:24.400
My point in this is, look, guys,

00:36:24.820 --> 00:36:26.262
I can afford a razor.

00:36:26.702 --> 00:36:27.842
I can go to the store.

00:36:27.882 --> 00:36:29.943
I can go to Kroger and buy a razor.

00:36:30.543 --> 00:36:31.324
But I don't.

00:36:31.463 --> 00:36:32.144
Why don't I?

00:36:32.184 --> 00:36:33.425
Because it's inconvenient.

00:36:33.465 --> 00:36:35.847
When I'm there, I'm not thinking about it.

00:36:35.887 --> 00:36:37.327
Just like physical therapy.

00:36:37.867 --> 00:36:40.608
I can afford to self-pay for

00:36:40.628 --> 00:36:42.769
a premium physical therapy experience.

00:36:43.289 --> 00:36:44.911
Why didn't I buy another

00:36:44.971 --> 00:36:46.592
thirty dollar handheld razor?

00:36:46.692 --> 00:36:48.152
I love the experience of

00:36:48.192 --> 00:36:49.172
shaving with that.

00:36:49.833 --> 00:36:51.074
But there's something in my

00:36:51.153 --> 00:36:52.434
DNA that's like,

00:36:52.614 --> 00:36:53.875
why would you spend thirty

00:36:53.914 --> 00:36:55.835
dollars when you can spend eighteen?

00:36:56.315 --> 00:36:58.097
The outcome is the same.

00:36:58.876 --> 00:37:01.559
I lose the facial hair either way.

00:37:01.699 --> 00:37:02.599
Makes no difference.

00:37:03.159 --> 00:37:04.239
So, you know,

00:37:04.260 --> 00:37:06.280
I just think that Dave's

00:37:06.300 --> 00:37:08.882
customer is paying a premium.

00:37:09.365 --> 00:37:10.567
because they feel smart

00:37:10.606 --> 00:37:12.309
paying for Dave's time or

00:37:12.369 --> 00:37:13.730
Dave's employees' time.

00:37:15.670 --> 00:37:16.331
And certainty.

00:37:17.273 --> 00:37:17.873
Maybe.

00:37:18.074 --> 00:37:18.414
I don't know.

00:37:18.594 --> 00:37:19.414
Maybe some certainty.

00:37:21.215 --> 00:37:23.137
For other consumers,

00:37:23.418 --> 00:37:24.858
it's just not that important.

00:37:25.239 --> 00:37:26.201
They're going to pay less.

00:37:27.581 --> 00:37:30.121
I'm a consumer that when it comes to shoes,

00:37:30.161 --> 00:37:31.422
when it comes to certain

00:37:31.481 --> 00:37:33.141
products and certain things,

00:37:33.902 --> 00:37:35.322
I am always gonna pay less,

00:37:35.503 --> 00:37:38.222
even if it's a less enjoyable experience.

00:37:39.483 --> 00:37:40.923
But when it comes to food,

00:37:41.643 --> 00:37:43.603
I will buy the most expensive food.

00:37:43.903 --> 00:37:45.625
I will buy the premium steak.

00:37:45.824 --> 00:37:47.784
I will buy the premium vegetable.

00:37:47.804 --> 00:37:49.125
I will buy organic,

00:37:49.585 --> 00:37:50.646
even if it doesn't really

00:37:50.686 --> 00:37:51.786
make me any healthier.

00:37:52.545 --> 00:37:54.306
Because that's that's my bucket.

00:37:54.987 --> 00:37:56.327
Ramit Sethi talks about

00:37:56.427 --> 00:37:57.628
buckets where you put your

00:37:57.668 --> 00:37:58.628
money and where you spend

00:37:58.648 --> 00:38:00.028
your time and your emotions.

00:38:00.769 --> 00:38:01.949
That's the bucket for me

00:38:01.989 --> 00:38:03.570
that makes me feel good is

00:38:03.610 --> 00:38:04.751
spending money on food.

00:38:05.731 --> 00:38:06.351
Real quick, Jimmy.

00:38:06.572 --> 00:38:08.253
So I spend about every I don't know,

00:38:08.293 --> 00:38:09.213
every five or whatever

00:38:09.253 --> 00:38:10.074
years I'll buy like an

00:38:10.114 --> 00:38:11.273
electric razor and they're

00:38:11.313 --> 00:38:12.034
like anywhere from like

00:38:12.173 --> 00:38:13.394
eighty to one hundred or

00:38:13.454 --> 00:38:15.315
like one hundred and something dollars.

00:38:16.480 --> 00:38:18.121
I want the same outcome Tony wants.

00:38:18.840 --> 00:38:20.342
I get the same outcome that Tony gets.

00:38:20.902 --> 00:38:21.842
I want it to be efficient.

00:38:22.262 --> 00:38:24.143
I don't want to have to slowly, like,

00:38:24.204 --> 00:38:24.684
I don't want to have to

00:38:24.744 --> 00:38:25.545
lean into the mirror, like,

00:38:25.565 --> 00:38:26.686
make sure I don't, like, cut myself.

00:38:26.706 --> 00:38:27.246
And then I'm bleeding,

00:38:27.266 --> 00:38:28.347
and then I got to come on this show,

00:38:28.626 --> 00:38:30.088
and I got, you know, I got, like,

00:38:30.188 --> 00:38:31.389
blood going down my neck.

00:38:31.648 --> 00:38:32.228
So I don't want that.

00:38:33.869 --> 00:38:35.210
I've done the electric razors forever.

00:38:35.891 --> 00:38:37.231
And I would absolutely never

00:38:37.652 --> 00:38:38.733
skimp on the price,

00:38:38.753 --> 00:38:39.693
because I know that if you

00:38:39.733 --> 00:38:41.155
buy the ten dollar, thirty dollar,

00:38:41.175 --> 00:38:42.255
whatever electric razor,

00:38:42.775 --> 00:38:43.536
it's going to fall apart.

00:38:43.577 --> 00:38:45.157
And then I got to spend the time,

00:38:45.197 --> 00:38:47.860
the brain power to then say, OK,

00:38:48.260 --> 00:38:49.440
I got to go look and look

00:38:49.481 --> 00:38:50.521
at reviews and I got to go

00:38:50.561 --> 00:38:51.242
back on Amazon.

00:38:51.722 --> 00:38:51.822
No,

00:38:51.882 --> 00:38:53.543
I want to buy a Gillette or whatever

00:38:53.583 --> 00:38:54.784
the branding thing I have

00:38:55.085 --> 00:38:55.684
that's electric.

00:38:55.704 --> 00:38:56.766
I want to spend whatever

00:38:56.826 --> 00:38:57.545
dollar amount that they're

00:38:57.565 --> 00:38:58.367
charging for it.

00:38:58.427 --> 00:38:59.927
I want it to last three, five, seven,

00:38:59.947 --> 00:39:00.588
whatever years.

00:39:01.248 --> 00:39:03.050
clean it in between and it's

00:39:03.070 --> 00:39:03.992
just reliable.

00:39:04.092 --> 00:39:05.552
If you plug it in, you charge it.

00:39:05.652 --> 00:39:06.554
It always works.

00:39:06.994 --> 00:39:08.815
Did your dad use an electric razor?

00:39:10.818 --> 00:39:10.958
Well,

00:39:10.978 --> 00:39:12.500
he definitely does now and has been

00:39:12.539 --> 00:39:14.121
for the ten, twenty years at least.

00:39:14.561 --> 00:39:14.641
Yeah.

00:39:14.661 --> 00:39:15.523
I just wonder how you got

00:39:15.603 --> 00:39:17.364
introduced to that and why

00:39:17.664 --> 00:39:19.567
I don't use an electric razor.

00:39:19.626 --> 00:39:22.630
I don't know why.

00:39:22.730 --> 00:39:23.610
Yeah, I tried one.

00:39:24.030 --> 00:39:24.532
I didn't love it.

00:39:25.655 --> 00:39:27.335
So you do straight edge?

00:39:27.396 --> 00:39:27.715
Yeah.

00:39:28.215 --> 00:39:28.436
Yeah.

00:39:29.175 --> 00:39:29.717
Wow.

00:39:29.956 --> 00:39:30.956
I'm like outvoted here.

00:39:30.996 --> 00:39:31.677
Wow.

00:39:31.757 --> 00:39:32.177
All right.

00:39:32.557 --> 00:39:33.737
Audience of men,

00:39:33.757 --> 00:39:35.659
it's probably eighty

00:39:35.719 --> 00:39:36.798
percent of the audience.

00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:41.961
Let us know your razor decisions.

00:39:42.222 --> 00:39:43.561
These are such fascinating

00:39:43.601 --> 00:39:45.242
questions like what

00:39:45.342 --> 00:39:47.664
introduces someone to an electric razor?

00:39:47.744 --> 00:39:48.923
Why do they make the choice

00:39:48.943 --> 00:39:50.184
to buy the electric razor?

00:39:50.824 --> 00:39:52.286
But just as important,

00:39:52.786 --> 00:39:55.047
why don't I use an electric razor?

00:39:55.126 --> 00:39:55.708
Like, I don't know.

00:39:55.748 --> 00:39:57.728
What's the psychology behind that?

00:39:58.168 --> 00:39:59.949
Do I feel like it's less masculine?

00:40:00.010 --> 00:40:01.050
You mentioned real quick,

00:40:01.090 --> 00:40:02.130
you mentioned cuts.

00:40:02.831 --> 00:40:04.753
I cut myself probably, you know,

00:40:05.072 --> 00:40:05.672
every time.

00:40:06.333 --> 00:40:07.614
But there's something about

00:40:07.713 --> 00:40:09.255
cutting yourself while

00:40:09.315 --> 00:40:11.255
shaving that has a

00:40:11.356 --> 00:40:14.458
masculine connotation for me.

00:40:15.387 --> 00:40:15.746
I don't know.

00:40:15.806 --> 00:40:17.686
I remember my dad, he would bleed.

00:40:18.487 --> 00:40:19.688
I make up for it when I play

00:40:19.728 --> 00:40:20.288
baseball games.

00:40:20.327 --> 00:40:21.288
I slide head first,

00:40:21.307 --> 00:40:22.507
like Pete Rose and all the bases.

00:40:22.588 --> 00:40:24.208
I cut up my arms and my elbows.

00:40:24.228 --> 00:40:25.449
That's my blood.

00:40:25.608 --> 00:40:26.568
I draw blood there.

00:40:26.628 --> 00:40:27.588
But when I'm shaving,

00:40:27.708 --> 00:40:28.708
I want the electric razor.

00:40:28.789 --> 00:40:30.630
I want to clean, fast, efficient,

00:40:31.010 --> 00:40:31.550
splash my face.

00:40:31.610 --> 00:40:32.630
I don't want razor burn.

00:40:32.710 --> 00:40:34.650
I don't want to have to, you know,

00:40:34.690 --> 00:40:36.550
like I'm pruning, you know, the hedges.

00:40:36.911 --> 00:40:38.650
I just, I want to shave and be done.

00:40:39.110 --> 00:40:39.831
I don't want the whole

00:40:39.871 --> 00:40:41.931
experience of shaving manually.

00:40:42.922 --> 00:40:44.143
I think the simple but not

00:40:44.202 --> 00:40:45.704
accurate answer is what

00:40:45.764 --> 00:40:46.744
Seth Godin would say is

00:40:46.844 --> 00:40:48.425
people like us do things like this.

00:40:50.166 --> 00:40:51.188
Why do people in different

00:40:51.228 --> 00:40:52.068
cultures do something

00:40:52.108 --> 00:40:53.688
drastically different to us?

00:40:54.650 --> 00:40:56.570
Apparently, there's a thing in Chicago,

00:40:56.851 --> 00:40:58.152
I need someone to confirm,

00:40:58.652 --> 00:41:00.873
where it is sack religion

00:41:01.333 --> 00:41:03.916
to put ketchup on a hot dog.

00:41:04.956 --> 00:41:07.838
You will get the stink eye.

00:41:07.878 --> 00:41:09.340
I heard this on a podcast the other day.

00:41:09.380 --> 00:41:11.840
It came from one guy who was outside of...

00:41:12.842 --> 00:41:14.041
White Sox played Comiskey, right?

00:41:14.061 --> 00:41:14.762
Yeah, Comiskey.

00:41:15.362 --> 00:41:15.983
And he was like,

00:41:16.202 --> 00:41:17.342
I got a hot dog so good you

00:41:17.362 --> 00:41:18.364
never need ketchup.

00:41:18.483 --> 00:41:19.523
And it became a thing.

00:41:19.983 --> 00:41:20.244
It's like,

00:41:20.284 --> 00:41:21.545
when did this thing become a thing?

00:41:21.625 --> 00:41:23.465
All of a sudden, you're like, where is it?

00:41:23.724 --> 00:41:25.045
Why are baseball managers

00:41:25.346 --> 00:41:26.585
the only managers in

00:41:26.606 --> 00:41:29.047
professional sports that wear a uniform?

00:41:29.606 --> 00:41:32.788
NBA coaches, NHL coaches, they wear suits.

00:41:33.108 --> 00:41:35.608
Why do we got Joe Torre over

00:41:35.648 --> 00:41:36.768
here wearing a Yankee uniform?

00:41:36.789 --> 00:41:37.489
He's got a number.

00:41:37.528 --> 00:41:38.268
He's got a number?

00:41:38.369 --> 00:41:39.309
Joe Torre has a number?

00:41:39.329 --> 00:41:39.869
He's not a player.

00:41:40.489 --> 00:41:40.730
Um,

00:41:40.750 --> 00:41:42.931
people like somewhere it happened and

00:41:43.291 --> 00:41:44.610
they probably questioned it then,

00:41:44.650 --> 00:41:45.612
but they kept doing it.

00:41:46.311 --> 00:41:47.652
Someone pushed through and

00:41:47.672 --> 00:41:48.873
then eventually people like

00:41:48.992 --> 00:41:50.072
us do things like this,

00:41:50.353 --> 00:41:51.532
but that's not just culture.

00:41:51.572 --> 00:41:53.034
That's your own thing, right?

00:41:53.414 --> 00:41:54.333
A lot of times it comes from

00:41:54.634 --> 00:41:55.635
people closest to you that

00:41:55.675 --> 00:41:56.934
you want to assimilate with

00:41:57.255 --> 00:41:58.195
and be just like them.

00:41:58.615 --> 00:41:59.655
Or every once in a while you

00:41:59.675 --> 00:42:00.755
want to break out of that mold.

00:42:01.016 --> 00:42:02.717
So you do everything backwards or,

00:42:02.956 --> 00:42:03.536
or weird.

00:42:03.996 --> 00:42:06.398
You're New York guys, ketchup or mustard?

00:42:06.418 --> 00:42:08.978
Ketchup.

00:42:08.998 --> 00:42:09.398
I do both.

00:42:09.498 --> 00:42:09.958
I do both.

00:42:10.693 --> 00:42:11.293
Oh, my God.

00:42:11.313 --> 00:42:13.755
Like I remember my dad

00:42:13.795 --> 00:42:14.695
dragging me through the

00:42:14.735 --> 00:42:15.657
streets of New York.

00:42:15.697 --> 00:42:19.199
So my mom was in the garment business.

00:42:19.219 --> 00:42:21.179
She she did that.

00:42:21.199 --> 00:42:23.380
We would go deliver clothes and do stuff.

00:42:23.501 --> 00:42:24.882
Every time I got a hot dog

00:42:24.902 --> 00:42:25.722
from a street vendor,

00:42:25.862 --> 00:42:27.284
I would never imagine

00:42:27.304 --> 00:42:28.264
putting ketchup on it.

00:42:28.304 --> 00:42:29.545
It was disgusting to me.

00:42:30.025 --> 00:42:31.505
You don't know how much it

00:42:31.545 --> 00:42:33.166
took for me to let my kids

00:42:33.226 --> 00:42:34.967
put ketchup on a hot dog

00:42:35.007 --> 00:42:35.809
for the first time.

00:42:36.228 --> 00:42:38.730
I'm going to smack it out of their hands.

00:42:38.750 --> 00:42:40.271
So hard.

00:42:40.371 --> 00:42:42.512
I'm a hardcore mustard guy.

00:42:43.032 --> 00:42:43.911
This is a conversation

00:42:43.931 --> 00:42:45.213
you're probably already having, Dave.

00:42:45.672 --> 00:42:47.693
And which happens with a lot of families,

00:42:47.813 --> 00:42:49.414
which is when a kid's old

00:42:49.454 --> 00:42:51.094
enough to understand what a

00:42:51.195 --> 00:42:53.275
sports franchise and a sports team is.

00:42:53.996 --> 00:42:57.219
who's their favorite going to be?

00:42:57.898 --> 00:42:58.500
And you nudge.

00:42:58.719 --> 00:43:01.161
That was pre-birth already decided.

00:43:01.202 --> 00:43:02.583
The fact that he got David

00:43:02.623 --> 00:43:03.925
Michael Kittle Jr.

00:43:04.125 --> 00:43:05.505
I got the naming rights.

00:43:06.007 --> 00:43:09.550
And he got Mets, Knicks, Rangers.

00:43:09.570 --> 00:43:12.932
And then football is up to him,

00:43:13.472 --> 00:43:14.954
except we got him a bunch

00:43:14.974 --> 00:43:15.594
of Eagles onesies,

00:43:15.675 --> 00:43:16.916
and the Eagles just won the Super Bowl.

00:43:16.936 --> 00:43:18.297
His first time on this earth,

00:43:18.336 --> 00:43:19.577
the Eagles win the Super Bowl.

00:43:20.278 --> 00:43:21.400
Apparently that's not his team.

00:43:21.519 --> 00:43:22.320
I'm saying it's his team,

00:43:22.360 --> 00:43:23.902
but apparently football he

00:43:23.922 --> 00:43:24.603
gets to choose.

00:43:24.663 --> 00:43:27.346
But that's already been pre-decided,

00:43:27.525 --> 00:43:28.306
pre-negotiated.

00:43:28.527 --> 00:43:30.048
My best friend is a New Yorker,

00:43:30.188 --> 00:43:31.070
born and bred.

00:43:31.230 --> 00:43:33.211
He's a Red Sox fan.

00:43:33.512 --> 00:43:33.791
Why?

00:43:34.735 --> 00:43:35.934
Was it because his dad told

00:43:35.974 --> 00:43:37.175
him to or friends around us?

00:43:37.275 --> 00:43:39.076
No, because in nineteen eighty six,

00:43:39.115 --> 00:43:39.936
his brother was cheering

00:43:39.976 --> 00:43:40.835
for the Mets and he's like,

00:43:41.376 --> 00:43:42.876
who are the Mets playing Red Sox?

00:43:43.016 --> 00:43:43.157
Great.

00:43:43.197 --> 00:43:43.757
I like them.

00:43:43.996 --> 00:43:46.157
I like anybody that you don't like.

00:43:46.418 --> 00:43:47.257
That's who I'm with.

00:43:47.557 --> 00:43:49.179
So sometimes and he's still a Red Sox fan.

00:43:49.378 --> 00:43:51.119
So sometimes it's just because of that.

00:43:51.438 --> 00:43:53.840
But how often do we get indoctrinated into,

00:43:53.860 --> 00:43:55.639
well, this is how we do things.

00:43:56.039 --> 00:43:57.320
And because my C.I.

00:43:57.360 --> 00:43:59.721
did it this way, then I I like them.

00:44:00.061 --> 00:44:01.581
Therefore, I want to adapt their habits.

00:44:01.621 --> 00:44:02.961
I want to show them that I like them.

00:44:03.402 --> 00:44:05.463
by replicating them by by

00:44:05.583 --> 00:44:07.543
admiring them by repetition

00:44:07.963 --> 00:44:08.905
we get caught in those

00:44:08.925 --> 00:44:10.125
things until we're

00:44:10.166 --> 00:44:11.326
photocopies of photocopies

00:44:11.365 --> 00:44:12.646
of photocopies then someone

00:44:12.666 --> 00:44:13.907
who actually has thought

00:44:14.248 --> 00:44:15.487
and I asked chat gpt this a

00:44:15.547 --> 00:44:16.268
minute ago when you guys

00:44:16.289 --> 00:44:17.509
were talking what are the

00:44:17.608 --> 00:44:18.710
industries we should be

00:44:18.750 --> 00:44:20.311
looking to to actually

00:44:20.331 --> 00:44:21.391
bring and inject some great

00:44:21.451 --> 00:44:22.632
ideas in it and none of

00:44:22.672 --> 00:44:23.331
these are going to shock

00:44:23.351 --> 00:44:24.233
you and we've talked about

00:44:24.253 --> 00:44:26.253
them before but I'll repeat them because

00:44:26.954 --> 00:44:28.215
Maybe you have to hear it fifty times,

00:44:28.554 --> 00:44:31.338
but fitness and coaching, in my opinion,

00:44:31.597 --> 00:44:34.280
if PT and fitness coaching were similar,

00:44:34.360 --> 00:44:35.541
they're pretty damn similar guys.

00:44:35.721 --> 00:44:35.940
Right.

00:44:36.501 --> 00:44:38.503
The difference is, in my opinion,

00:44:38.903 --> 00:44:40.885
we come from we are learned

00:44:41.106 --> 00:44:42.827
doctors of physical therapy

00:44:43.126 --> 00:44:44.307
where a really great

00:44:44.347 --> 00:44:46.070
trainer constantly looks at

00:44:46.090 --> 00:44:47.371
themselves as a servant and

00:44:47.411 --> 00:44:48.492
I need to over serve.

00:44:48.612 --> 00:44:49.532
And I think that's a better

00:44:49.572 --> 00:44:50.152
way to look at it.

00:44:50.193 --> 00:44:51.914
Instead of I you do what I

00:44:51.974 --> 00:44:53.715
say is I'm going to listen

00:44:53.755 --> 00:44:54.436
to you and then

00:44:55.237 --> 00:44:56.637
Figure out a way of what you

00:44:56.677 --> 00:44:58.059
just told me to make it get

00:44:58.099 --> 00:44:59.199
you to hit your goals.

00:44:59.699 --> 00:45:02.260
Tech startups and software as a service.

00:45:02.900 --> 00:45:04.282
They understand all the

00:45:04.342 --> 00:45:05.561
friction points and then

00:45:05.581 --> 00:45:06.963
they pay attention to how to solve them.

00:45:07.342 --> 00:45:08.103
How many times do you have

00:45:08.123 --> 00:45:08.943
somebody with an EMR?

00:45:08.963 --> 00:45:10.164
It's like I just figured out

00:45:10.364 --> 00:45:11.284
this is how I do it.

00:45:11.304 --> 00:45:12.126
It's not actually we're not

00:45:12.166 --> 00:45:13.385
actually changing the thing.

00:45:13.726 --> 00:45:14.626
We're just duct taping

00:45:14.646 --> 00:45:15.947
crappy solutions on top

00:45:16.188 --> 00:45:17.389
until one day it breaks.

00:45:17.708 --> 00:45:18.329
And it's because we have

00:45:18.369 --> 00:45:19.769
fifteen things duct taped together.

00:45:20.309 --> 00:45:21.731
Tech people or SAS people

00:45:21.751 --> 00:45:22.632
would never do that.

00:45:22.672 --> 00:45:24.893
They're just like scrap it, figure it out.

00:45:24.914 --> 00:45:25.713
So looking to them,

00:45:25.954 --> 00:45:27.416
hospitality and high end service.

00:45:27.735 --> 00:45:28.096
Of course,

00:45:28.135 --> 00:45:29.177
if you want to understand like

00:45:29.197 --> 00:45:30.117
how to get someone to buy

00:45:30.197 --> 00:45:32.460
in the Ritz Carlton of the four seasons,

00:45:32.800 --> 00:45:34.942
they have MBA level

00:45:35.422 --> 00:45:37.943
programs on this retail and e-commerce.

00:45:38.585 --> 00:45:39.945
I like this and their health

00:45:39.965 --> 00:45:41.166
care is so resistant to it.

00:45:41.186 --> 00:45:42.168
But we've talked about this

00:45:42.568 --> 00:45:45.090
Masters at Driving Action program.

00:45:45.289 --> 00:45:48.251
through storytelling, offers, experience,

00:45:48.510 --> 00:45:50.291
psychological levers like bundles,

00:45:50.371 --> 00:45:52.172
memberships, and limited time offers.

00:45:52.552 --> 00:45:52.833
Listen,

00:45:52.853 --> 00:45:54.233
become Dave's patient for the next

00:45:54.273 --> 00:45:54.853
twelve months.

00:45:55.094 --> 00:45:55.793
You get a watch.

00:45:56.173 --> 00:45:57.675
Follow through on all twelve months.

00:45:57.875 --> 00:45:58.574
You keep the watch.

00:45:58.614 --> 00:45:59.594
The watch is yours because

00:45:59.655 --> 00:46:02.335
obviously you earned it, right?

00:46:02.356 --> 00:46:03.456
Just how could you do that?

00:46:04.297 --> 00:46:05.277
And professional sports,

00:46:05.376 --> 00:46:06.277
performance training,

00:46:06.418 --> 00:46:07.577
and music and entertainment.

00:46:07.858 --> 00:46:08.759
Those are the industries we

00:46:08.778 --> 00:46:09.458
should be looking to.

00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:10.719
The answer most likely is

00:46:10.778 --> 00:46:13.860
not in a CEU course at CSM.

00:46:13.880 --> 00:46:14.641
CSM is for something else.

00:46:16.376 --> 00:46:16.617
Dave,

00:46:16.637 --> 00:46:18.418
do you take or any of your people

00:46:18.478 --> 00:46:20.858
take students?

00:46:20.918 --> 00:46:21.018
No.

00:46:21.039 --> 00:46:22.639
OK.

00:46:22.719 --> 00:46:23.521
Any reason why?

00:46:26.402 --> 00:46:27.483
Sometimes we'll get asked by

00:46:27.543 --> 00:46:29.664
students or even sometimes

00:46:29.704 --> 00:46:30.603
we'll get like as we're

00:46:30.643 --> 00:46:31.925
interviewing folks and some

00:46:32.204 --> 00:46:33.925
will ask if they can kind

00:46:33.945 --> 00:46:35.427
of shadow in the beginning.

00:46:36.599 --> 00:46:37.960
And for the most part,

00:46:38.059 --> 00:46:39.101
I've asked a lot of my

00:46:39.121 --> 00:46:42.322
patients and they usually say no,

00:46:42.643 --> 00:46:43.103
my clients.

00:46:43.344 --> 00:46:43.983
Now, of course,

00:46:44.023 --> 00:46:45.045
I can present it to them

00:46:45.105 --> 00:46:46.505
like they don't have a choice.

00:46:46.525 --> 00:46:47.525
But the fact that we're

00:46:47.545 --> 00:46:48.447
going into their private

00:46:48.487 --> 00:46:49.768
space and their apartments

00:46:49.788 --> 00:46:51.869
that we're trying to

00:46:52.389 --> 00:46:54.050
respect and ultimately they

00:46:54.090 --> 00:46:54.971
get the decision.

00:46:56.952 --> 00:46:57.813
I still have the one patient

00:46:57.833 --> 00:46:59.894
that I'm seeing one time a week,

00:46:59.914 --> 00:47:00.994
so four visits a month.

00:47:01.615 --> 00:47:03.577
And I brought my top physical therapist,

00:47:03.597 --> 00:47:03.996
Porus,

00:47:04.056 --> 00:47:06.139
to him when I was treating someone else.

00:47:06.458 --> 00:47:09.081
because the point was to try

00:47:09.121 --> 00:47:12.282
to push that last patient

00:47:12.382 --> 00:47:14.864
over to Porus and that

00:47:14.884 --> 00:47:15.945
client wanted to stay with me.

00:47:16.465 --> 00:47:17.746
So some clients will allow

00:47:17.806 --> 00:47:18.746
like a physical therapist

00:47:18.766 --> 00:47:20.608
to come shadow or whatever, but no,

00:47:20.648 --> 00:47:21.608
we haven't done students.

00:47:24.130 --> 00:47:26.891
I'm actually, as a coincidence,

00:47:26.952 --> 00:47:29.034
I'm interviewing a PTA right now,

00:47:29.153 --> 00:47:31.155
and he is doing really well

00:47:31.856 --> 00:47:33.036
on the communication,

00:47:33.097 --> 00:47:34.838
the first call that we had,

00:47:35.398 --> 00:47:36.318
very impressive,

00:47:36.398 --> 00:47:38.581
the way he communicated and

00:47:38.641 --> 00:47:39.461
spoke and all that.

00:47:40.282 --> 00:47:41.103
Looked on his LinkedIn,

00:47:41.802 --> 00:47:42.603
he's got a history in the

00:47:42.623 --> 00:47:43.585
hospitality world.

00:47:43.605 --> 00:47:44.724
Shocker, right?

00:47:46.447 --> 00:47:48.907
So could that be something?

00:47:49.228 --> 00:47:50.228
And so I'll have to update

00:47:50.248 --> 00:47:51.510
you guys more in the future if...

00:47:52.710 --> 00:47:54.692
if he joins uh but no in

00:47:54.751 --> 00:47:55.552
general like we just we

00:47:55.592 --> 00:47:57.554
haven't done students same

00:47:57.574 --> 00:47:59.255
thing like you know my my

00:47:59.456 --> 00:48:00.615
business partner and coach

00:48:00.936 --> 00:48:02.677
sturdy mckee back when they

00:48:02.717 --> 00:48:04.478
had uh three or four

00:48:04.518 --> 00:48:06.519
locations in san francisco

00:48:06.900 --> 00:48:08.322
they were one-on-one always

00:48:08.382 --> 00:48:09.442
self-pay or out of network

00:48:09.461 --> 00:48:10.003
or whatever and

00:48:10.778 --> 00:48:12.039
They didn't really take students either.

00:48:12.079 --> 00:48:14.141
They would not hire new grads.

00:48:14.181 --> 00:48:15.702
They always wanted to hire a

00:48:15.742 --> 00:48:16.822
therapist that had two or

00:48:16.862 --> 00:48:18.023
three years of experience.

00:48:18.324 --> 00:48:19.324
They looked for therapists

00:48:19.344 --> 00:48:21.365
that had the service-based history,

00:48:21.405 --> 00:48:22.626
maybe hospitality, whatever.

00:48:23.567 --> 00:48:24.628
They also would never hire a

00:48:24.688 --> 00:48:25.688
physical therapist that

00:48:25.827 --> 00:48:27.148
that was their first job.

00:48:28.688 --> 00:48:29.570
They, they,

00:48:29.590 --> 00:48:30.831
they would not hire a physical

00:48:30.851 --> 00:48:31.492
therapist out of school.

00:48:31.512 --> 00:48:32.211
So you had to go work

00:48:32.231 --> 00:48:33.273
somewhere else and then

00:48:33.293 --> 00:48:34.054
they would hire you.

00:48:34.815 --> 00:48:37.036
And they would ask like, what did you,

00:48:37.336 --> 00:48:38.538
where did you work in the

00:48:38.657 --> 00:48:39.418
summers for high school?

00:48:39.438 --> 00:48:40.440
Where did you work in the

00:48:40.480 --> 00:48:41.661
summers during college or, you know,

00:48:41.721 --> 00:48:43.702
what type of volunteer or

00:48:43.742 --> 00:48:44.422
work or whatever?

00:48:44.523 --> 00:48:46.025
So they would always dig into that, but no,

00:48:46.164 --> 00:48:46.846
just to answer your question.

00:48:46.865 --> 00:48:48.166
No, we, we haven't done students.

00:48:48.447 --> 00:48:49.606
But what's the main reason

00:48:49.726 --> 00:48:50.847
large organizations,

00:48:50.987 --> 00:48:51.788
and we'll get to this,

00:48:51.807 --> 00:48:52.668
this will be a tease

00:48:52.688 --> 00:48:54.268
because we talk about this on Thursday.

00:48:54.289 --> 00:48:55.389
This is a LinkedIn post I

00:48:55.429 --> 00:48:56.349
dropped this morning and

00:48:56.389 --> 00:48:57.909
it's already sort of blowing up.

00:48:57.929 --> 00:48:59.891
And the question is, is this a PT mill?

00:49:00.150 --> 00:49:00.610
We'll get to this.

00:49:00.891 --> 00:49:01.731
But why would these

00:49:01.871 --> 00:49:03.192
organizations that are larger

00:49:03.711 --> 00:49:04.693
And I'm not making fun of,

00:49:04.713 --> 00:49:06.554
I'm not knocking them, the ATIs, the IVs,

00:49:06.574 --> 00:49:07.155
the athleticos.

00:49:07.514 --> 00:49:08.356
Why do they have like

00:49:08.956 --> 00:49:10.697
student engagement departments?

00:49:11.139 --> 00:49:12.380
It's because they have a need, right?

00:49:12.440 --> 00:49:14.041
Like I'm not knocking them.

00:49:14.201 --> 00:49:15.641
I don't think it's, but let's be honest,

00:49:15.661 --> 00:49:17.063
it's not clinical excellence.

00:49:17.244 --> 00:49:18.525
Like you're not doing a resident,

00:49:18.545 --> 00:49:19.105
like you're doing a

00:49:19.144 --> 00:49:20.967
residency program because you're smart.

00:49:21.306 --> 00:49:22.728
That says if you do a residency here,

00:49:22.748 --> 00:49:23.548
that's a pipeline to

00:49:23.628 --> 00:49:25.190
keeping people engaged and

00:49:25.251 --> 00:49:26.150
keeping people here.

00:49:26.871 --> 00:49:28.311
Dave doesn't really have that problem,

00:49:28.632 --> 00:49:29.632
not at scale, right?

00:49:29.652 --> 00:49:30.793
You don't need to hire sixty

00:49:30.833 --> 00:49:31.693
people next month.

00:49:31.994 --> 00:49:32.634
If you did,

00:49:33.094 --> 00:49:34.193
you better have a we'll go back

00:49:34.233 --> 00:49:34.614
to baseball.

00:49:34.653 --> 00:49:35.815
You better have a farm system.

00:49:36.155 --> 00:49:38.375
It's a farm system in a good way growing.

00:49:38.735 --> 00:49:38.936
Right.

00:49:38.996 --> 00:49:39.596
But if you don't have that

00:49:39.635 --> 00:49:41.115
problem and also your model

00:49:41.135 --> 00:49:43.157
makes it real hard, like, dude,

00:49:43.376 --> 00:49:44.396
I'm I'm going at one

00:49:44.436 --> 00:49:45.217
hundred miles an hour

00:49:45.458 --> 00:49:47.657
because this person is paying for this.

00:49:47.677 --> 00:49:49.679
This person is paying this for this.

00:49:50.518 --> 00:49:53.402
And education has to slow is

00:49:53.422 --> 00:49:55.483
going to slow you down in a good way.

00:49:55.503 --> 00:49:56.605
It should it should slow you

00:49:56.644 --> 00:49:57.324
down in some way.

00:49:58.126 --> 00:49:59.067
But that's why I think

00:49:59.086 --> 00:50:00.807
people like Dave don't take

00:50:00.847 --> 00:50:02.048
students and probably

00:50:02.829 --> 00:50:04.311
shouldn't and can't is

00:50:04.371 --> 00:50:06.432
because they're busy doing the thing.

00:50:06.632 --> 00:50:07.954
But but a different model

00:50:07.994 --> 00:50:09.175
could can allow it.

00:50:10.036 --> 00:50:11.076
where applicable.

00:50:11.297 --> 00:50:12.597
But yeah, that post on LinkedIn,

00:50:12.637 --> 00:50:13.317
take a look at that.

00:50:13.737 --> 00:50:14.717
Essentially, I'm asking,

00:50:14.818 --> 00:50:15.918
I've asked this question before.

00:50:16.177 --> 00:50:17.159
I don't know why it's a question.

00:50:17.378 --> 00:50:18.719
I love poking bears because

00:50:18.759 --> 00:50:19.699
I love asking questions I

00:50:19.719 --> 00:50:20.599
know there's no answer to.

00:50:20.920 --> 00:50:21.480
The question is,

00:50:21.500 --> 00:50:22.559
if you point your finger at

00:50:22.579 --> 00:50:23.460
an organization that says,

00:50:23.760 --> 00:50:24.661
they're a PT mill,

00:50:25.320 --> 00:50:26.862
when are they and what could they do

00:50:27.880 --> 00:50:28.920
What could they remove one

00:50:28.960 --> 00:50:30.961
thing at a time until they're not?

00:50:31.382 --> 00:50:32.922
So where's the line is what I'm asking.

00:50:33.103 --> 00:50:33.902
Did you see my comment?

00:50:33.963 --> 00:50:35.364
I comment on your post on LinkedIn.

00:50:35.583 --> 00:50:35.744
No.

00:50:35.764 --> 00:50:36.304
What'd you say?

00:50:36.784 --> 00:50:38.945
So I said a physical therapy

00:50:38.985 --> 00:50:41.226
practice that books and

00:50:41.465 --> 00:50:43.987
completes four visits per hour.

00:50:44.047 --> 00:50:46.068
So one therapist is booking

00:50:46.168 --> 00:50:47.809
and treating four patients per hour.

00:50:48.809 --> 00:50:50.050
Tony agree.

00:50:50.070 --> 00:50:50.530
Disagree.

00:50:51.288 --> 00:50:52.909
Is three okay?

00:50:52.989 --> 00:50:54.789
I don't know that a mil is a bad thing.

00:50:54.969 --> 00:50:58.092
I'm going to start there.

00:50:58.152 --> 00:51:00.893
You imply that being a mil is negative.

00:51:03.016 --> 00:51:04.197
I'm going to say it's not.

00:51:05.577 --> 00:51:07.599
Before we get off the original topic,

00:51:07.639 --> 00:51:07.918
though,

00:51:07.938 --> 00:51:08.920
and if we're going to talk about

00:51:08.960 --> 00:51:10.780
this on Thursday, that'd be awesome.

00:51:11.101 --> 00:51:11.601
Yeah,

00:51:11.641 --> 00:51:15.125
I think this is a serious problem in

00:51:15.144 --> 00:51:17.126
the profession is people

00:51:17.146 --> 00:51:18.809
who are doing things differently,

00:51:18.889 --> 00:51:20.231
people who are doing things

00:51:20.291 --> 00:51:21.371
potentially better,

00:51:21.391 --> 00:51:23.193
whatever the better is defined as.

00:51:23.773 --> 00:51:25.835
They're not taking students, you know.

00:51:25.916 --> 00:51:28.498
And so how how do we address

00:51:28.559 --> 00:51:31.402
this problem for students, new grads,

00:51:31.442 --> 00:51:32.322
recent grads?

00:51:34.284 --> 00:51:35.666
I took it as a personal

00:51:35.706 --> 00:51:37.648
responsibility when I was a CI,

00:51:37.728 --> 00:51:39.909
which I haven't been a CI for years.

00:51:40.530 --> 00:51:42.733
When I was a CI, I loved taking students,

00:51:42.753 --> 00:51:44.173
but it was almost like a

00:51:44.273 --> 00:51:45.914
personal responsibility to

00:51:46.376 --> 00:51:48.458
bust all of the myths that

00:51:48.478 --> 00:51:50.639
you learn in school to show

00:51:50.699 --> 00:51:51.960
why the ideas and the

00:51:52.001 --> 00:51:53.302
concepts that these kids

00:51:53.362 --> 00:51:54.463
are learning in school are

00:51:54.503 --> 00:51:56.684
completely absurd, completely ridiculous.

00:51:58.025 --> 00:51:59.847
And to break them of those

00:51:59.967 --> 00:52:01.807
ideas and to show them a

00:52:01.847 --> 00:52:03.869
different way that things could be done,

00:52:03.909 --> 00:52:05.889
that how therapy could be different.

00:52:06.469 --> 00:52:08.791
But I was, you know, we're a small,

00:52:08.911 --> 00:52:10.793
even back then, we were a small group,

00:52:10.833 --> 00:52:12.012
two, three locations.

00:52:12.032 --> 00:52:13.074
We had a small team.

00:52:13.594 --> 00:52:15.295
So I had the ability to do that.

00:52:15.755 --> 00:52:17.998
And it was something that I enjoyed.

00:52:18.599 --> 00:52:18.878
Now,

00:52:18.898 --> 00:52:20.460
when you look at who is still

00:52:20.501 --> 00:52:21.541
accepting students,

00:52:21.601 --> 00:52:23.043
there is a characteristic

00:52:23.202 --> 00:52:24.465
of that business,

00:52:24.985 --> 00:52:26.266
why they're taking students,

00:52:26.306 --> 00:52:27.427
how they're taking students,

00:52:27.487 --> 00:52:28.929
what they're doing with these students.

00:52:28.969 --> 00:52:29.969
And I don't think...

00:52:30.650 --> 00:52:32.271
It's quite as, you know,

00:52:33.172 --> 00:52:34.193
what it used to be.

00:52:35.695 --> 00:52:38.317
So I want to talk about students more.

00:52:38.336 --> 00:52:39.458
We'll save it for Thursday

00:52:39.478 --> 00:52:40.900
because I think that's a great topic.

00:52:40.960 --> 00:52:42.721
And I think that's one more

00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:44.483
opportunity for disruption,

00:52:44.802 --> 00:52:45.684
for innovation.

00:52:45.764 --> 00:52:46.744
How can we change the

00:52:46.784 --> 00:52:47.905
profession for the better?

00:52:48.226 --> 00:52:49.606
How can we create a business

00:52:49.666 --> 00:52:52.230
opportunity that helps both

00:52:52.289 --> 00:52:54.190
sides of the business equation?

00:52:55.072 --> 00:52:56.793
I think taking students into

00:52:56.893 --> 00:53:00.295
a new kind of CI program is

00:53:00.675 --> 00:53:03.135
right for the future of our profession.

00:53:03.155 --> 00:53:05.217
All right.

00:53:05.237 --> 00:53:06.418
That's a front tease on Thursday.

00:53:07.297 --> 00:53:07.938
If we keep talking,

00:53:07.958 --> 00:53:08.659
I'm going to keep talking

00:53:08.679 --> 00:53:09.358
about this and I'm going to

00:53:09.378 --> 00:53:10.039
give away the stuff I'm

00:53:10.059 --> 00:53:10.980
going to talk about on Thursday.

00:53:11.039 --> 00:53:11.960
So let's do parting shots.

00:53:12.400 --> 00:53:13.802
Yeah, that sounds great.

00:53:13.822 --> 00:53:14.202
What you got?

00:53:16.297 --> 00:53:17.797
Man, parting shot,

00:53:17.818 --> 00:53:19.460
I would say I'm going to

00:53:19.480 --> 00:53:22.163
continue to focus on the concierge,

00:53:22.202 --> 00:53:23.264
whether it's the remote

00:53:23.304 --> 00:53:25.126
thing with the watch, whether it's,

00:53:25.246 --> 00:53:25.487
you know,

00:53:25.527 --> 00:53:28.110
the huge hospital system focused

00:53:28.130 --> 00:53:29.291
down to a concierge

00:53:29.371 --> 00:53:30.853
offering to whatever that

00:53:30.893 --> 00:53:32.934
care or experience is that

00:53:32.954 --> 00:53:33.815
I'm just going to continue

00:53:33.835 --> 00:53:34.856
to focus on the thing that.

00:53:35.797 --> 00:53:38.780
that we're doing, uh, not blinders on.

00:53:38.800 --> 00:53:39.581
Cause I always like to hear

00:53:39.601 --> 00:53:40.661
what you guys are doing or

00:53:40.681 --> 00:53:42.023
thinking and others are, you know,

00:53:42.063 --> 00:53:43.623
posting on LinkedIn or other places.

00:53:44.364 --> 00:53:45.525
Um, but for me, it's just focused.

00:53:45.565 --> 00:53:46.465
It's just like, we,

00:53:46.766 --> 00:53:48.588
we know our ideal client or customer,

00:53:49.168 --> 00:53:50.989
we know our ideal therapist,

00:53:51.590 --> 00:53:53.391
and that's just main thing right now.

00:53:53.431 --> 00:53:54.992
So focusing on that growth

00:53:55.072 --> 00:53:56.634
with hiring with on the

00:53:57.054 --> 00:53:58.815
growth of hiring therapists,

00:53:58.835 --> 00:53:59.996
interviewing them, onboarding them,

00:54:00.356 --> 00:54:01.556
keeping them, retaining them,

00:54:02.398 --> 00:54:03.177
doing whatever it takes to

00:54:03.197 --> 00:54:04.018
retain top talent.

00:54:04.478 --> 00:54:05.679
And then also on the new

00:54:05.739 --> 00:54:07.298
patient marketing side,

00:54:07.679 --> 00:54:09.800
generating more leads that are engaged,

00:54:10.519 --> 00:54:12.840
referral sources, partners, all that.

00:54:12.860 --> 00:54:13.740
So that's my main focus.

00:54:13.760 --> 00:54:15.422
That's my parting shot.

00:54:15.481 --> 00:54:15.981
Yeah,

00:54:16.161 --> 00:54:20.762
I think as if you're not deep into AI,

00:54:21.242 --> 00:54:22.523
whether you choose to use

00:54:22.583 --> 00:54:23.983
it or not in your practice,

00:54:24.043 --> 00:54:25.364
in your documentation,

00:54:25.724 --> 00:54:27.364
in your relationships, whatever,

00:54:30.217 --> 00:54:33.358
Every part of our future involves AI.

00:54:33.378 --> 00:54:35.501
There's zero chance that AI

00:54:35.541 --> 00:54:36.981
is going to go away or disappear.

00:54:37.561 --> 00:54:38.983
I just think you have to get

00:54:39.123 --> 00:54:40.925
your hands into it,

00:54:41.045 --> 00:54:42.186
start to play around with it.

00:54:42.626 --> 00:54:43.746
And I'm going to get the

00:54:43.786 --> 00:54:45.909
Google video generator to

00:54:45.989 --> 00:54:47.570
generate some videos that

00:54:47.630 --> 00:54:49.291
Dave is going to be blown

00:54:49.371 --> 00:54:52.634
away by when you see it.

00:54:52.653 --> 00:54:54.275
It is nothing like you've seen.

00:54:54.355 --> 00:54:56.516
I guarantee it is freaky good.

00:54:57.657 --> 00:54:58.418
We'll see.

00:54:58.518 --> 00:54:58.838
All right.

00:54:58.858 --> 00:54:59.617
I would say going back to

00:54:59.637 --> 00:55:01.500
the first topic we started

00:55:01.539 --> 00:55:02.701
on today is I don't think

00:55:02.940 --> 00:55:04.661
AI is coming for your job.

00:55:05.623 --> 00:55:06.722
I agree with Dave there.

00:55:06.742 --> 00:55:08.344
It's not going to replace you.

00:55:08.664 --> 00:55:09.826
But they are coming for your

00:55:09.885 --> 00:55:10.485
patient's attention.

00:55:10.545 --> 00:55:11.407
Yeah, Tony.

00:55:12.007 --> 00:55:12.728
And they're coming for your

00:55:12.768 --> 00:55:13.768
patient's attention and

00:55:13.807 --> 00:55:15.750
your patient's data.

00:55:16.250 --> 00:55:17.012
And your patients are going

00:55:17.032 --> 00:55:17.913
to hand that data over.

00:55:18.333 --> 00:55:20.476
So I don't think in the future to yes.

00:55:20.657 --> 00:55:21.898
And here, both of you,

00:55:22.219 --> 00:55:23.701
the clinics that win won't

00:55:23.740 --> 00:55:24.702
be the ones with the

00:55:24.722 --> 00:55:26.905
fanciest tools or the use of the biggest,

00:55:27.166 --> 00:55:28.507
you know, the most CPGs, uh,

00:55:29.309 --> 00:55:30.510
That's going to ruffle some feathers.

00:55:30.769 --> 00:55:31.530
They'll be the ones that

00:55:31.590 --> 00:55:33.951
show up like a coach, like a concierge,

00:55:34.070 --> 00:55:35.891
that stay connected, like a friend,

00:55:36.271 --> 00:55:37.431
not like automation.

00:55:37.452 --> 00:55:38.233
So there needs to be some

00:55:38.253 --> 00:55:38.833
middle ground here.

00:55:38.853 --> 00:55:40.414
It can't just be a notification every day.

00:55:40.873 --> 00:55:42.295
So you don't just fix people.

00:55:42.355 --> 00:55:43.875
The goal is how can you guide them?

00:55:44.155 --> 00:55:45.335
How can you use this ability

00:55:45.416 --> 00:55:46.775
to connect in real time,

00:55:46.836 --> 00:55:48.117
personalized to do that?

00:55:48.556 --> 00:55:49.577
The ones, the businesses,

00:55:49.597 --> 00:55:51.719
the organizations that do, those win.

00:55:51.759 --> 00:55:52.099
That's it.

00:55:52.699 --> 00:55:53.960
We'll see you on Thursday at,

00:55:54.320 --> 00:55:55.260
at eight thirty a.m.

00:55:55.300 --> 00:55:56.400
We'll talk about P.T.

00:55:56.460 --> 00:55:57.001
Mills.

00:55:57.501 --> 00:55:59.202
I want people to be able to define it.

00:55:59.523 --> 00:56:00.782
You cannot just throw around

00:56:01.224 --> 00:56:02.583
just words and labels

00:56:02.623 --> 00:56:04.065
unless you can define those things.

00:56:05.385 --> 00:56:06.266
Learn Medicare billing,

00:56:06.286 --> 00:56:07.447
the Dave Kittle show, P.T.

00:56:07.467 --> 00:56:08.106
Pinecast.

00:56:08.226 --> 00:56:09.387
Do the follow.

00:56:09.547 --> 00:56:10.329
Bang that bell,

00:56:10.369 --> 00:56:11.548
as they say on the YouTubers.

00:56:11.809 --> 00:56:12.409
We'll see you guys on.
