Stop Sitting Out. Start Showing Up.

Live from CSM Anaheim, Jimmy sits down with Matt Huey, PT, to talk about what really moves the physical therapy profession forward.
The conversation centers on engagement.
Not national outrage.
Not social media complaints.
Real, local involvement.
Key themes:
- Why member engagement starts at the state level
- Protecting scope of practice
- Why trust can’t be bought
- The real ROI of conferences
- How mentorship creates professional legacy
- Passing a “little piece of you” to every student you train
The takeaway:
If you want the profession to improve, you have to show up.

00:00:00.922 --> 00:00:01.342
And we're live.
00:00:07.485 --> 00:00:08.086
Hey, what's up, man?
00:00:08.127 --> 00:00:08.487
How you doing?
00:00:08.987 --> 00:00:09.448
Good to see you.
00:00:09.887 --> 00:00:10.808
We're just going to talk real quick.
00:00:10.929 --> 00:00:12.449
Yeah.
00:00:12.509 --> 00:00:12.990
And there we are.
00:00:13.009 --> 00:00:13.631
Now we're live.
00:00:14.031 --> 00:00:14.750
Seriously, we're live.
00:00:14.771 --> 00:00:15.612
Look, we're on our phone.
00:00:15.811 --> 00:00:16.371
Here we are.
00:00:16.553 --> 00:00:16.952
This is real.
00:00:17.413 --> 00:00:18.474
Matt Huey on the show,
00:00:18.553 --> 00:00:20.155
live from CSM here in Anaheim.
00:00:20.475 --> 00:00:21.376
Big Texas guy.
00:00:23.236 --> 00:00:23.896
I liked Houston.
00:00:24.718 --> 00:00:25.439
Houston was fun.
00:00:25.539 --> 00:00:27.059
It was a little warmer than California,
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:27.460
I feel like.
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:28.239
It is a little bit.
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:28.920
It is a little bit.
00:00:30.089 --> 00:00:30.850
So I got to ask,
00:00:31.271 --> 00:00:32.853
you do funny videos on the interwebs,
00:00:33.094 --> 00:00:34.134
which is a good way to get people
00:00:34.155 --> 00:00:34.816
to pay attention,
00:00:35.115 --> 00:00:36.377
but then you also give them good
00:00:36.396 --> 00:00:36.898
information.
00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:38.579
Spoonful of sugar,
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:40.982
and then the medicine goes down, right?
00:00:41.262 --> 00:00:42.103
Where do you come up with them?
00:00:42.283 --> 00:00:43.564
And I know that might sound like a
00:00:43.625 --> 00:00:46.488
weak question, but are you like...
00:00:47.658 --> 00:00:48.918
Are you watching something and then
00:00:48.978 --> 00:00:50.439
twisting it in the moment?
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:51.500
Like, oh, I'll do that.
00:00:51.979 --> 00:00:53.481
Or are you a plotter?
00:00:53.521 --> 00:00:54.981
Like, oh, I'm going to do these five.
00:00:55.301 --> 00:00:56.021
Where do you do it?
00:00:56.262 --> 00:00:56.741
How do you do it?
00:00:57.021 --> 00:00:58.963
A lot of it just comes from history.
00:00:59.883 --> 00:01:01.643
When I worked with patients and had
00:01:01.682 --> 00:01:03.884
something happen, you're like, man,
00:01:03.923 --> 00:01:04.884
that could be funny.
00:01:04.924 --> 00:01:06.504
That's a cartoon version of funny.
00:01:06.665 --> 00:01:09.006
So like watching Saturday Night Live way
00:01:09.025 --> 00:01:09.605
back in the day.
00:01:10.066 --> 00:01:11.906
Like when he had Phil Hartman,
00:01:12.046 --> 00:01:15.388
Chris Farley, Will Ferrell,
00:01:15.528 --> 00:01:18.108
those like the skits of what you took
00:01:18.289 --> 00:01:19.450
a real life situation.
00:01:19.489 --> 00:01:20.510
You made it funny.
00:01:20.530 --> 00:01:21.870
You just amped it up ten percent.
00:01:21.890 --> 00:01:22.230
Yeah.
00:01:22.290 --> 00:01:23.450
And I was like, you know what?
00:01:23.471 --> 00:01:24.210
Let me start doing this.
00:01:24.370 --> 00:01:27.251
So sometimes I may just scroll and look
00:01:27.272 --> 00:01:28.492
at videos and I'm like.
00:01:29.112 --> 00:01:30.233
i could do something like that what's my
00:01:30.313 --> 00:01:32.153
version of what's our version of that yeah
00:01:32.174 --> 00:01:33.873
so something hits and that's yeah so like
00:01:33.974 --> 00:01:37.614
what is the rehab pt health care equipment
00:01:37.974 --> 00:01:39.174
of that whatever you're seeing in the
00:01:39.215 --> 00:01:40.796
moment yeah just to make it and i
00:01:40.816 --> 00:01:42.195

00:01:57.819 --> 00:01:58.459
stupid stuff
00:02:00.114 --> 00:02:01.576
Good interactions that you've gotten,
00:02:01.716 --> 00:02:02.518
have your patients found?
00:02:04.695 --> 00:02:05.456
Your content?
00:02:05.796 --> 00:02:06.597
Yes.
00:02:06.737 --> 00:02:08.560
The patients occasionally have found it,
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:09.700
and they're like, oh, my gosh,
00:02:09.760 --> 00:02:10.822

00:02:11.722 --> 00:02:13.024
They get it.
00:02:13.984 --> 00:02:16.145
If the patients get it, you're there.
00:02:16.366 --> 00:02:18.168
That's where you are.
00:02:18.407 --> 00:02:21.151
The most touching thing was my daughter
00:02:21.191 --> 00:02:22.451

00:02:22.512 --> 00:02:23.513
She goes,

I watched one of your videos at school.
00:02:27.216 --> 00:02:28.356
Why were you watching that at school?
00:02:28.396 --> 00:02:28.897
She was like,
00:02:28.957 --> 00:02:30.218
I just wanted to watch one of your
00:02:30.239 --> 00:02:30.699

00:02:52.088 --> 00:02:55.150
years now wow and then when you started
00:02:55.569 --> 00:02:56.591
sharing things
00:02:57.614 --> 00:02:58.875
Nowhere in the job description.
00:02:59.034 --> 00:03:00.556
It's not in the syllabus in PT school,
00:03:00.896 --> 00:03:02.519
but it is in our lives, right?
00:03:02.538 --> 00:03:03.659
We always say we want to meet people
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:04.400
where they are, and I'm like,
00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:05.140
I got news for you.
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:06.342
They're on Instagram.
00:03:06.442 --> 00:03:07.263
They're on YouTube.
00:03:07.282 --> 00:03:08.764
They're on all these places.
00:03:10.286 --> 00:03:11.727
What was the goal when you started,
00:03:11.907 --> 00:03:13.528
and has the goal changed?
00:03:15.009 --> 00:03:16.050
Just a creative outlet.
00:03:17.132 --> 00:03:18.293
Flex a muscle that you're like,
00:03:18.312 --> 00:03:19.834
this is fun.
00:03:19.873 --> 00:03:22.296
Put my personality out there and then that
00:03:22.317 --> 00:03:22.676
was it.
00:03:22.757 --> 00:03:23.997
And then the same thing now is like,
00:03:24.579 --> 00:03:26.600
I'm just going to keep being this
00:03:26.681 --> 00:03:29.604
personality and just keep doing that.
00:03:30.144 --> 00:03:30.884
Just having fun.
00:03:30.905 --> 00:03:32.165
That's how I look.
00:03:32.265 --> 00:03:32.847
It's fun.
00:03:33.067 --> 00:03:34.549
You don't want to make it like...
00:03:35.441 --> 00:03:36.722
a hard job where I got to do
00:03:36.762 --> 00:03:38.062
this, but it's like, it's, it's fun.
00:03:38.203 --> 00:03:39.183
It could end tomorrow.
00:03:39.243 --> 00:03:39.743
Who knows?
00:03:39.903 --> 00:03:40.243
Right.
00:03:40.264 --> 00:03:41.805
But it's like, just have fun,
00:03:42.064 --> 00:03:42.846
entertain people.
00:03:43.246 --> 00:03:43.425
You know,
00:03:43.445 --> 00:03:45.228
that's what I think is just entertaining.
00:03:45.427 --> 00:03:45.647
Yeah.
00:03:45.907 --> 00:03:46.848
What's going on in Texas?
00:03:47.968 --> 00:03:48.430
In what way?
00:03:48.909 --> 00:03:49.770
I don't know.
00:03:49.790 --> 00:03:50.510
What's the big, hairy,
00:03:50.531 --> 00:03:51.671
scary want to talk about today?
00:03:51.711 --> 00:03:52.632
What's the thing everybody's got to hear
00:03:52.651 --> 00:03:53.252
about live from CSI?
00:03:53.293 --> 00:03:53.413
Oh,
00:03:53.432 --> 00:03:56.235
I'll tell you the big thing is getting
00:03:56.495 --> 00:03:57.635
member engagement.
00:03:57.656 --> 00:03:58.135
That's a big thing.
00:03:58.156 --> 00:03:58.956
Within an association?
00:03:59.056 --> 00:04:00.157
Within the association.
00:04:00.217 --> 00:04:00.397
So,
00:04:01.307 --> 00:04:04.250
getting the PTs and PTAs and the students
00:04:04.789 --> 00:04:08.231
engaged in the state to make a difference.
00:04:08.252 --> 00:04:10.454
Because sometimes I will say the big
00:04:10.493 --> 00:04:12.055
things nationwide,
00:04:13.443 --> 00:04:14.104
What can I do?
00:04:14.185 --> 00:04:17.047
I'm calling this lawmaker.
00:04:17.406 --> 00:04:20.408
I'm trying to tell them about PT with
00:04:20.449 --> 00:04:20.850
Medicare,
00:04:20.870 --> 00:04:23.110
but you've got physicians calling them,
00:04:23.151 --> 00:04:23.932
the OTs calling them,
00:04:24.052 --> 00:04:26.132
all these other professions are calling
00:04:26.153 --> 00:04:26.413
them.
00:04:26.473 --> 00:04:28.314
They're also talking about education and
00:04:28.394 --> 00:04:31.076
agriculture and business and all this
00:04:31.096 --> 00:04:31.396
stuff.
00:04:31.997 --> 00:04:34.459
But the local Texas people,
00:04:34.500 --> 00:04:36.201
we can make a change there.
00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:37.362
We can do something different.
00:04:37.682 --> 00:04:39.644
there and it's like we've got to get
00:04:39.783 --> 00:04:43.286
our members engaged and give them some
00:04:43.387 --> 00:04:46.290
reason why you should why are you should
00:04:46.350 --> 00:04:47.610
i be a member why should i be
00:04:47.651 --> 00:04:49.492
involved here what do we give you well
00:04:49.512 --> 00:04:50.574
let me ask you this why are you
00:04:50.613 --> 00:04:52.154
a member let's take the advocacy part out
00:04:52.175 --> 00:04:53.295
of it because you could do that without
00:04:53.315 --> 00:04:54.798
being a member why are you a member
00:04:54.817 --> 00:04:58.000
that's a good question i i do like
00:04:58.021 --> 00:04:59.882
the giving back and helping
00:05:00.874 --> 00:05:01.894
Advocate for the profession,
00:05:01.935 --> 00:05:02.935
grow the profession,
00:05:03.636 --> 00:05:05.156
protect us in what we do because
00:05:05.197 --> 00:05:08.259
everyone's trying to take a piece of that.
00:05:08.718 --> 00:05:10.079
You know,
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:11.300
and then you have people who are,
00:05:12.201 --> 00:05:12.380
you know,
00:05:12.420 --> 00:05:14.002
the whole thing with the veneers doctors
00:05:14.242 --> 00:05:14.463
online.
00:05:14.483 --> 00:05:15.963
Do you ever see the veneer tech?
00:05:16.163 --> 00:05:16.463
No.
00:05:16.524 --> 00:05:17.103
What is that?
00:05:17.584 --> 00:05:17.725
Oh,
00:05:18.125 --> 00:05:20.826
so these people were on TikToks being
00:05:20.906 --> 00:05:21.666
veneer techs.
00:05:21.987 --> 00:05:22.968
What are veneer techs?
00:05:23.956 --> 00:05:24.357
Exactly.
00:05:24.416 --> 00:05:27.081
This people that would do like some online
00:05:27.101 --> 00:05:28.946
course or just in-person training to do
00:05:28.985 --> 00:05:31.029
veneers on people who are not licensed
00:05:31.069 --> 00:05:31.870
dentists or anything.
00:05:31.911 --> 00:05:33.754
And they were messing up people's teeth.
00:05:34.355 --> 00:05:34.896
And it's like,
00:05:36.266 --> 00:05:37.406
You have to protect them.
00:05:37.425 --> 00:05:38.165
I feel like there needs to be some
00:05:38.185 --> 00:05:39.947
sort of protection there.
00:05:39.987 --> 00:05:40.107
Yeah.
00:05:40.166 --> 00:05:41.507
And so one guy got charged with like
00:05:41.586 --> 00:05:43.367
seven hundred years worth of stuff.
00:05:43.387 --> 00:05:44.627
Because he messed up enough people's.
00:05:44.668 --> 00:05:44.867
Yeah.
00:05:45.048 --> 00:05:45.548
That bad.
00:05:45.648 --> 00:05:46.627
And then you also think of like with
00:05:46.668 --> 00:05:47.348
contractors,
00:05:47.369 --> 00:05:48.709
like I used to do construction when I
00:05:48.728 --> 00:05:51.129
was younger and like you get unsavory
00:05:51.149 --> 00:05:51.410
people.
00:05:51.449 --> 00:05:53.029
It's like you have to protect.
00:05:53.189 --> 00:05:53.689
Yeah.
00:05:53.790 --> 00:05:55.911
The people who consume our product.
00:05:55.930 --> 00:05:58.870
So let's let's be here to help protect
00:05:59.071 --> 00:06:01.872
those of those those people and get get
00:06:01.932 --> 00:06:03.952
us out there into these less fortunate
00:06:04.033 --> 00:06:04.213
areas.
00:06:04.233 --> 00:06:04.733
Because like again,
00:06:04.773 --> 00:06:05.692
when I came from Mississippi.
00:06:08.293 --> 00:06:09.454
There was eighty four counties in
00:06:09.475 --> 00:06:09.956
Mississippi.
00:06:09.995 --> 00:06:11.276
Eighty two of them are below the poverty
00:06:11.297 --> 00:06:11.557
line.
00:06:11.937 --> 00:06:13.338
So I'm really saying, hey,
00:06:13.358 --> 00:06:15.141
let's let's take this profession that can
00:06:15.180 --> 00:06:17.502
help people and let's go into these areas
00:06:17.963 --> 00:06:20.045
and share it with people and to help
00:06:20.146 --> 00:06:20.586
all those people.
00:06:20.625 --> 00:06:21.927
That's what I try to try to do
00:06:21.947 --> 00:06:22.107
with it.
00:06:22.127 --> 00:06:23.067
I know that's kind of all over the
00:06:23.088 --> 00:06:23.709
place in the answers.
00:06:23.848 --> 00:06:24.088
No,
00:06:24.129 --> 00:06:26.512
it's also got to be because you said
00:06:26.591 --> 00:06:28.012
we a few more than a few times.
00:06:28.052 --> 00:06:29.033
It's the other people.
00:06:29.494 --> 00:06:30.654
I tell people a lot like, oh,
00:06:30.795 --> 00:06:32.317
I can't do the math on CSM and
00:06:32.396 --> 00:06:33.478
fly all the way there.
00:06:34.158 --> 00:06:35.819
And just for that many CEUs,
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:37.161
but I can get CEUs on my couch.
00:06:37.180 --> 00:06:37.661
I'm like, my man,
00:06:37.682 --> 00:06:38.543
if you're just flying for CEUs,
00:06:38.562 --> 00:06:40.403
you're missing you're missing the thing.
00:06:40.944 --> 00:06:42.125
The things in the hallways,
00:06:42.586 --> 00:06:44.267
the things that the I mean, unfortunately,
00:06:44.327 --> 00:06:45.809
it's like, yeah, it is the hotel bar.
00:06:45.889 --> 00:06:45.990
It's.
00:06:46.709 --> 00:06:49.093
i said it i hope apk steals it
00:06:49.312 --> 00:06:51.595
which is you if you're a new grad
00:06:51.615 --> 00:06:53.797
you come to csm because hopefully you see
00:06:53.857 --> 00:06:56.980
future versions of yourself everywhere oh
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:59.083
yeah or your spin what am i going
00:06:59.142 --> 00:07:00.644
what impression am i going to leave and
00:07:00.684 --> 00:07:02.466
these pts are all over the country every
00:07:02.485 --> 00:07:02.665
day
00:07:03.466 --> 00:07:05.069
But when you're in physical proximity,
00:07:05.449 --> 00:07:06.490
you can meet someone new,
00:07:07.091 --> 00:07:08.254
propose a collaboration,
00:07:08.353 --> 00:07:09.595
and then something is born.
00:07:09.855 --> 00:07:11.377
And that's if you think you're going to
00:07:11.398 --> 00:07:12.680
get your money back out of the CEUs,
00:07:12.699 --> 00:07:13.199
you're not.
00:07:13.540 --> 00:07:15.543
That's a nice little side quest.
00:07:16.064 --> 00:07:17.206
The main thing is the people.
00:07:17.225 --> 00:07:18.507
That's why we come together.
00:07:18.528 --> 00:07:18.608
Yeah.
00:07:18.968 --> 00:07:19.528
It's so much fun.
00:07:19.788 --> 00:07:22.091
You get here and you come away so
00:07:22.130 --> 00:07:24.492
renewed and you find new products,
00:07:24.713 --> 00:07:25.413
all sorts of great,
00:07:25.452 --> 00:07:27.595
crazy things out here that are just so...
00:07:27.654 --> 00:07:28.956
Test it, jump in it.
00:07:29.096 --> 00:07:29.997
Yeah.
00:07:30.076 --> 00:07:30.997
And you may see like,
00:07:31.718 --> 00:07:32.819
I do have some of the things where
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:33.199
it's like, hey,
00:07:33.220 --> 00:07:35.521
this thing may not stick around,
00:07:36.081 --> 00:07:37.423
but there's a thought,
00:07:37.463 --> 00:07:40.665
there's something going on there that we
00:07:40.706 --> 00:07:42.187
need to look at and be aware of.
00:07:42.266 --> 00:07:44.329
So that's a really big thing.
00:07:44.369 --> 00:07:45.449
And then also like meeting the people,
00:07:45.470 --> 00:07:46.190
because you never know,
00:07:46.591 --> 00:07:47.612
you meet somebody today and
00:07:48.612 --> 00:07:50.295
they may help you in a year,
00:07:50.334 --> 00:07:50.935
five years.
00:07:51.016 --> 00:07:52.658
You may pull that card out and go,
00:07:52.778 --> 00:07:53.961
hey, I need a job.
00:07:54.752 --> 00:07:56.173
I'm going to call Bob up right here,
00:07:56.194 --> 00:07:56.793
and I can call him up,
00:07:56.874 --> 00:07:58.334
and maybe they can find something.
00:07:58.754 --> 00:08:02.937
It's not that whole cliche of it's not
00:08:02.978 --> 00:08:03.958
what you know, it's who you know.
00:08:04.358 --> 00:08:05.358
I go one step further.
00:08:05.379 --> 00:08:07.680
It's not what you know or just who
00:08:07.701 --> 00:08:08.060
you know.
00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:09.781
It's what they know about you.
00:08:10.442 --> 00:08:11.322
Someone might know me and be like,
00:08:11.382 --> 00:08:12.283
Jimmy's a jerk.
00:08:12.442 --> 00:08:14.685
So if I come up in a job
00:08:15.625 --> 00:08:17.125
reference situation, I know him.
00:08:17.586 --> 00:08:18.247
Don't hire him.
00:08:18.507 --> 00:08:19.807
But it's what do they know about you?
00:08:19.987 --> 00:08:20.747
And you can build.
00:08:20.807 --> 00:08:21.288
You can't.
00:08:21.889 --> 00:08:23.370
You can't buy trust.
00:08:23.470 --> 00:08:25.831
You can try to buy attention,
00:08:26.052 --> 00:08:27.334
but you've got to build trust.
00:08:27.413 --> 00:08:27.994
And I don't know.
00:08:28.053 --> 00:08:29.314
I feel like you speed it up when
00:08:29.334 --> 00:08:30.516
you do something like this in person.
00:08:30.536 --> 00:08:30.697
Oh, yeah.
00:08:30.716 --> 00:08:31.536
It's great.
00:08:31.677 --> 00:08:32.418
You guys have an event.
00:08:32.437 --> 00:08:34.139
Do you have an annual in Texas?
00:08:34.178 --> 00:08:34.940
Oh, yeah.
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:37.783
It's around October-ish when you typically
00:08:37.822 --> 00:08:38.182
have it.
00:08:38.822 --> 00:08:41.184
I mean, it's nothing as grand as this,
00:08:41.225 --> 00:08:42.265
but you get to see the people from
00:08:42.285 --> 00:08:42.846
around the state.
00:08:42.886 --> 00:08:43.427
You talk.
00:08:43.486 --> 00:08:45.929
People you're on Zoom calls with all year
00:08:45.970 --> 00:08:46.450
doing the work.
00:08:46.570 --> 00:08:48.251
you go have dinner with one another.
00:08:48.852 --> 00:08:49.133
You just,
00:08:49.192 --> 00:08:50.914
you just chat about different stuff.
00:08:51.115 --> 00:08:52.417
Maybe you may even have to talk about
00:08:52.496 --> 00:08:54.798
patient cases or just stuff that you're
00:08:54.818 --> 00:08:55.440
struggling with.
00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:56.140
And it's like, Hey,
00:08:56.221 --> 00:08:58.082
I get these new ideas to kind of
00:08:58.123 --> 00:08:59.163
bounce around and talk about.
00:08:59.183 --> 00:09:00.184
And it's like, it's a lot of fun.
00:09:00.586 --> 00:09:01.427
And even stuff like,
00:09:01.787 --> 00:09:03.828
not even pt comes from it sometimes so
00:09:03.849 --> 00:09:05.971
it's not all pt all the time but
00:09:06.371 --> 00:09:08.033
something something else may come in
00:09:08.053 --> 00:09:10.535
because maybe maybe they have um i don't
00:09:10.556 --> 00:09:11.756
know you want to start a band or
00:09:11.777 --> 00:09:13.558
something oh you play you know guitar you
00:09:13.578 --> 00:09:15.000
play let's go do this we got this
00:09:15.100 --> 00:09:16.822
album seems like a good reason i know
00:09:16.841 --> 00:09:18.344
we can have a band it's named theraband
00:09:18.443 --> 00:09:20.546
i think i stole that there we go
00:09:20.605 --> 00:09:21.086
theraband
00:09:21.606 --> 00:09:23.889
Listen, Picasso said, good artists borrow,
00:09:24.289 --> 00:09:26.072
great artists steal.
00:09:26.331 --> 00:09:28.094
So if you get a good idea for
00:09:28.114 --> 00:09:28.934
a video and twist it.
00:09:29.294 --> 00:09:29.916
I heard someone,
00:09:30.436 --> 00:09:31.638
we were at the Graham Sessions,
00:09:31.658 --> 00:09:34.000
a little meeting put on by PPS a
00:09:34.019 --> 00:09:34.721
couple weeks ago.
00:09:36.022 --> 00:09:36.241
And...
00:09:38.475 --> 00:09:41.259
And someone said, before I wrap up,
00:09:41.820 --> 00:09:42.821
I just want to give you my parting
00:09:42.841 --> 00:09:43.061
shot.
00:09:43.081 --> 00:09:44.341
And I was like, that's my thing.
00:09:45.023 --> 00:09:46.104
But I was like, that's cool.
00:09:46.144 --> 00:09:46.725
You stole it.
00:09:46.745 --> 00:09:47.345
That's all right.
00:09:47.404 --> 00:09:47.946
All right.
00:09:47.966 --> 00:09:50.168
So we will do the parting shot right
00:09:50.227 --> 00:09:51.149
now with Matt.
00:09:51.188 --> 00:09:52.551
Let's do it.
00:09:53.211 --> 00:09:55.234
This is the parting shot.
00:09:55.793 --> 00:09:57.176
One last mic drop moment.
00:09:57.855 --> 00:09:58.677
No pressure.
00:09:59.097 --> 00:10:01.220
Just your legacy on the line.
00:10:02.328 --> 00:10:03.730
All right, Matt Hewitt, your parting shot.
00:10:03.970 --> 00:10:05.291
What's something you want to leave?
00:10:05.331 --> 00:10:07.052
A mic drop moment, a soapbox statement,
00:10:07.133 --> 00:10:07.493
anything?
00:10:07.513 --> 00:10:08.114
Just look in that.
00:10:09.234 --> 00:10:10.634
Give us a parting shot.
00:10:10.696 --> 00:10:11.836
Oh, does that get put on the spot?
00:10:11.895 --> 00:10:12.856
Now I can't think.
00:10:13.398 --> 00:10:13.597
Well,
00:10:13.658 --> 00:10:15.158
what's the big thing you hope that changes
00:10:15.178 --> 00:10:16.840
in the profession in the next year,
00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:17.980
three years, something?
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:19.282
What's the thing you're hopeful for?
00:10:19.302 --> 00:10:21.624
Gosh, now it goes.
00:10:26.288 --> 00:10:27.509
Of all the times I talk and I
00:10:27.568 --> 00:10:28.428
run out of something.
00:10:30.150 --> 00:10:31.211
Okay, like you said earlier.
00:10:32.273 --> 00:10:34.315
Every â I'm going to talk about students.
00:10:34.394 --> 00:10:35.056
I'm going to talk about students.
00:10:35.076 --> 00:10:35.296
Good.
00:10:35.395 --> 00:10:36.817
Whenever you work with students,
00:10:37.498 --> 00:10:38.798
I tell every single one of them,
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.302
I want to leave a little piece of
00:10:41.361 --> 00:10:41.961
me with you.
00:10:42.602 --> 00:10:45.264
So you're going to form your own way
00:10:45.304 --> 00:10:46.947
of how to treat or how to evaluate
00:10:46.966 --> 00:10:47.528
or do whatever,
00:10:47.567 --> 00:10:49.208
but I want to have a little piece
00:10:49.269 --> 00:10:50.990
of me that I gave to you that
00:10:51.030 --> 00:10:51.630
you take it,
00:10:51.691 --> 00:10:53.833
and then a little piece of you will
00:10:53.854 --> 00:10:55.034
go on to the next one and then
00:10:55.054 --> 00:10:55.495
the next one.
00:10:55.514 --> 00:10:57.216
So you will continue on.
00:10:57.576 --> 00:10:59.597
because you did something with somebody,
00:10:59.998 --> 00:11:01.038
and they will carry it on,
00:11:01.078 --> 00:11:01.739
and they will carry it on.
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:03.440
So a little piece of you will just
00:11:03.580 --> 00:11:05.441
keep going through this profession based
00:11:05.500 --> 00:11:08.721
upon what you did with students or
00:11:08.741 --> 00:11:11.003
whomever now, today.
00:11:11.644 --> 00:11:12.604
Hit them with the Instagram account,
00:11:12.624 --> 00:11:13.565
just so they can follow you online.
00:11:13.605 --> 00:11:17.145

00:11:25.149 --> 00:11:26.870
Anaheim underscore twenty-twenty.
00:00:00.922 --> 00:00:01.342
And we're live.
00:00:07.485 --> 00:00:08.086
Hey, what's up, man?
00:00:08.127 --> 00:00:08.487
How you doing?
00:00:08.987 --> 00:00:09.448
Good to see you.
00:00:09.887 --> 00:00:10.808
We're just going to talk real quick.
00:00:10.929 --> 00:00:12.449
Yeah.
00:00:12.509 --> 00:00:12.990
And there we are.
00:00:13.009 --> 00:00:13.631
Now we're live.
00:00:14.031 --> 00:00:14.750
Seriously, we're live.
00:00:14.771 --> 00:00:15.612
Look, we're on our phone.
00:00:15.811 --> 00:00:16.371
Here we are.
00:00:16.553 --> 00:00:16.952
This is real.
00:00:17.413 --> 00:00:18.474
Matt Huey on the show,
00:00:18.553 --> 00:00:20.155
live from CSM here in Anaheim.
00:00:20.475 --> 00:00:21.376
Big Texas guy.
00:00:23.236 --> 00:00:23.896
I liked Houston.
00:00:24.718 --> 00:00:25.439
Houston was fun.
00:00:25.539 --> 00:00:27.059
It was a little warmer than California,
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:27.460
I feel like.
00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:28.239
It is a little bit.
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:28.920
It is a little bit.
00:00:30.089 --> 00:00:30.850
So I got to ask,
00:00:31.271 --> 00:00:32.853
you do funny videos on the interwebs,
00:00:33.094 --> 00:00:34.134
which is a good way to get people
00:00:34.155 --> 00:00:34.816
to pay attention,
00:00:35.115 --> 00:00:36.377
but then you also give them good
00:00:36.396 --> 00:00:36.898
information.
00:00:37.759 --> 00:00:38.579
Spoonful of sugar,
00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:40.982
and then the medicine goes down, right?
00:00:41.262 --> 00:00:42.103
Where do you come up with them?
00:00:42.283 --> 00:00:43.564
And I know that might sound like a
00:00:43.625 --> 00:00:46.488
weak question, but are you like...
00:00:47.658 --> 00:00:48.918
Are you watching something and then
00:00:48.978 --> 00:00:50.439
twisting it in the moment?
00:00:50.479 --> 00:00:51.500
Like, oh, I'll do that.
00:00:51.979 --> 00:00:53.481
Or are you a plotter?
00:00:53.521 --> 00:00:54.981
Like, oh, I'm going to do these five.
00:00:55.301 --> 00:00:56.021
Where do you do it?
00:00:56.262 --> 00:00:56.741
How do you do it?
00:00:57.021 --> 00:00:58.963
A lot of it just comes from history.
00:00:59.883 --> 00:01:01.643
When I worked with patients and had
00:01:01.682 --> 00:01:03.884
something happen, you're like, man,
00:01:03.923 --> 00:01:04.884
that could be funny.
00:01:04.924 --> 00:01:06.504
That's a cartoon version of funny.
00:01:06.665 --> 00:01:09.006
So like watching Saturday Night Live way
00:01:09.025 --> 00:01:09.605
back in the day.
00:01:10.066 --> 00:01:11.906
Like when he had Phil Hartman,
00:01:12.046 --> 00:01:15.388
Chris Farley, Will Ferrell,
00:01:15.528 --> 00:01:18.108
those like the skits of what you took
00:01:18.289 --> 00:01:19.450
a real life situation.
00:01:19.489 --> 00:01:20.510
You made it funny.
00:01:20.530 --> 00:01:21.870
You just amped it up ten percent.
00:01:21.890 --> 00:01:22.230
Yeah.
00:01:22.290 --> 00:01:23.450
And I was like, you know what?
00:01:23.471 --> 00:01:24.210
Let me start doing this.
00:01:24.370 --> 00:01:27.251
So sometimes I may just scroll and look
00:01:27.272 --> 00:01:28.492
at videos and I'm like.
00:01:29.112 --> 00:01:30.233
i could do something like that what's my
00:01:30.313 --> 00:01:32.153
version of what's our version of that yeah
00:01:32.174 --> 00:01:33.873
so something hits and that's yeah so like
00:01:33.974 --> 00:01:37.614
what is the rehab pt health care equipment
00:01:37.974 --> 00:01:39.174
of that whatever you're seeing in the
00:01:39.215 --> 00:01:40.796
moment yeah just to make it and i
00:01:40.816 --> 00:01:42.195
said it's just that little snapshot of
00:01:42.236 --> 00:01:44.697

00:01:44.736 --> 00:01:46.417

00:01:46.436 --> 00:01:48.237
be enjoying it's not making fun of anybody
00:01:48.278 --> 00:01:49.617
but let's do that let's all have a
00:01:49.658 --> 00:01:51.897
laugh because right life is hard dude
00:01:51.918 --> 00:01:53.599
we're monkeys on a rock dude we are
00:01:53.659 --> 00:01:55.918
we're just spinning around in space all
00:01:55.959 --> 00:01:57.780
this is made up we invented all this
00:01:57.819 --> 00:01:58.459
stupid stuff
00:02:00.114 --> 00:02:01.576
Good interactions that you've gotten,
00:02:01.716 --> 00:02:02.518
have your patients found?
00:02:04.695 --> 00:02:05.456
Your content?
00:02:05.796 --> 00:02:06.597
Yes.
00:02:06.737 --> 00:02:08.560
The patients occasionally have found it,
00:02:08.599 --> 00:02:09.700
and they're like, oh, my gosh,
00:02:09.760 --> 00:02:10.822
can you do me next?
00:02:11.722 --> 00:02:13.024
They get it.
00:02:13.984 --> 00:02:16.145
If the patients get it, you're there.
00:02:16.366 --> 00:02:18.168
That's where you are.
00:02:18.407 --> 00:02:21.151
The most touching thing was my daughter
00:02:21.191 --> 00:02:22.451
came home a few weeks ago.
00:02:22.512 --> 00:02:23.513
She goes,
00:02:23.633 --> 00:02:25.335
I watched one of your videos at school.
00:02:27.216 --> 00:02:28.356
Why were you watching that at school?
00:02:28.396 --> 00:02:28.897
She was like,
00:02:28.957 --> 00:02:30.218
I just wanted to watch one of your
00:02:30.239 --> 00:02:30.699

like uh two thousand nineteen to seven
00:02:52.088 --> 00:02:55.150
years now wow and then when you started
00:02:55.569 --> 00:02:56.591
sharing things
00:02:57.614 --> 00:02:58.875
Nowhere in the job description.
00:02:59.034 --> 00:03:00.556
It's not in the syllabus in PT school,
00:03:00.896 --> 00:03:02.519
but it is in our lives, right?
00:03:02.538 --> 00:03:03.659
We always say we want to meet people
00:03:03.680 --> 00:03:04.400
where they are, and I'm like,
00:03:04.439 --> 00:03:05.140
I got news for you.
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:06.342
They're on Instagram.
00:03:06.442 --> 00:03:07.263
They're on YouTube.
00:03:07.282 --> 00:03:08.764
They're on all these places.
00:03:10.286 --> 00:03:11.727
What was the goal when you started,
00:03:11.907 --> 00:03:13.528
and has the goal changed?
00:03:15.009 --> 00:03:16.050
Just a creative outlet.
00:03:17.132 --> 00:03:18.293
Flex a muscle that you're like,
00:03:18.312 --> 00:03:19.834
this is fun.
00:03:19.873 --> 00:03:22.296
Put my personality out there and then that
00:03:22.317 --> 00:03:22.676
was it.
00:03:22.757 --> 00:03:23.997
And then the same thing now is like,
00:03:24.579 --> 00:03:26.600
I'm just going to keep being this
00:03:26.681 --> 00:03:29.604
personality and just keep doing that.
00:03:30.144 --> 00:03:30.884
Just having fun.
00:03:30.905 --> 00:03:32.165
That's how I look.
00:03:32.265 --> 00:03:32.847
It's fun.
00:03:33.067 --> 00:03:34.549
You don't want to make it like...
00:03:35.441 --> 00:03:36.722
a hard job where I got to do
00:03:36.762 --> 00:03:38.062
this, but it's like, it's, it's fun.
00:03:38.203 --> 00:03:39.183
It could end tomorrow.
00:03:39.243 --> 00:03:39.743
Who knows?
00:03:39.903 --> 00:03:40.243
Right.
00:03:40.264 --> 00:03:41.805
But it's like, just have fun,
00:03:42.064 --> 00:03:42.846
entertain people.
00:03:43.246 --> 00:03:43.425
You know,
00:03:43.445 --> 00:03:45.228
that's what I think is just entertaining.
00:03:45.427 --> 00:03:45.647
Yeah.
00:03:45.907 --> 00:03:46.848
What's going on in Texas?
00:03:47.968 --> 00:03:48.430
In what way?
00:03:48.909 --> 00:03:49.770
I don't know.
00:03:49.790 --> 00:03:50.510
What's the big, hairy,
00:03:50.531 --> 00:03:51.671
scary want to talk about today?
00:03:51.711 --> 00:03:52.632
What's the thing everybody's got to hear
00:03:52.651 --> 00:03:53.252
about live from CSI?
00:03:53.293 --> 00:03:53.413
Oh,
00:03:53.432 --> 00:03:56.235
I'll tell you the big thing is getting
00:03:56.495 --> 00:03:57.635
member engagement.
00:03:57.656 --> 00:03:58.135
That's a big thing.
00:03:58.156 --> 00:03:58.956
Within an association?
00:03:59.056 --> 00:04:00.157
Within the association.
00:04:00.217 --> 00:04:00.397
So,
00:04:01.307 --> 00:04:04.250
getting the PTs and PTAs and the students
00:04:04.789 --> 00:04:08.231
engaged in the state to make a difference.
00:04:08.252 --> 00:04:10.454
Because sometimes I will say the big
00:04:10.493 --> 00:04:12.055
things nationwide,
00:04:13.443 --> 00:04:14.104
What can I do?
00:04:14.185 --> 00:04:17.047
I'm calling this lawmaker.
00:04:17.406 --> 00:04:20.408
I'm trying to tell them about PT with
00:04:20.449 --> 00:04:20.850
Medicare,
00:04:20.870 --> 00:04:23.110
but you've got physicians calling them,
00:04:23.151 --> 00:04:23.932
the OTs calling them,
00:04:24.052 --> 00:04:26.132
all these other professions are calling
00:04:26.153 --> 00:04:26.413
them.
00:04:26.473 --> 00:04:28.314
They're also talking about education and
00:04:28.394 --> 00:04:31.076
agriculture and business and all this
00:04:31.096 --> 00:04:31.396
stuff.
00:04:31.997 --> 00:04:34.459
But the local Texas people,
00:04:34.500 --> 00:04:36.201
we can make a change there.
00:04:36.240 --> 00:04:37.362
We can do something different.
00:04:37.682 --> 00:04:39.644
there and it's like we've got to get
00:04:39.783 --> 00:04:43.286
our members engaged and give them some
00:04:43.387 --> 00:04:46.290
reason why you should why are you should
00:04:46.350 --> 00:04:47.610
i be a member why should i be
00:04:47.651 --> 00:04:49.492
involved here what do we give you well
00:04:49.512 --> 00:04:50.574
let me ask you this why are you
00:04:50.613 --> 00:04:52.154
a member let's take the advocacy part out
00:04:52.175 --> 00:04:53.295
of it because you could do that without
00:04:53.315 --> 00:04:54.798
being a member why are you a member
00:04:54.817 --> 00:04:58.000
that's a good question i i do like
00:04:58.021 --> 00:04:59.882
the giving back and helping
00:05:00.874 --> 00:05:01.894
Advocate for the profession,
00:05:01.935 --> 00:05:02.935
grow the profession,
00:05:03.636 --> 00:05:05.156
protect us in what we do because
00:05:05.197 --> 00:05:08.259
everyone's trying to take a piece of that.
00:05:08.718 --> 00:05:10.079
You know,
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:11.300
and then you have people who are,
00:05:12.201 --> 00:05:12.380
you know,
00:05:12.420 --> 00:05:14.002
the whole thing with the veneers doctors
00:05:14.242 --> 00:05:14.463
online.
00:05:14.483 --> 00:05:15.963
Do you ever see the veneer tech?
00:05:16.163 --> 00:05:16.463
No.
00:05:16.524 --> 00:05:17.103
What is that?
00:05:17.584 --> 00:05:17.725
Oh,
00:05:18.125 --> 00:05:20.826
so these people were on TikToks being
00:05:20.906 --> 00:05:21.666
veneer techs.
00:05:21.987 --> 00:05:22.968
What are veneer techs?
00:05:23.956 --> 00:05:24.357
Exactly.
00:05:24.416 --> 00:05:27.081
This people that would do like some online
00:05:27.101 --> 00:05:28.946
course or just in-person training to do
00:05:28.985 --> 00:05:31.029
veneers on people who are not licensed
00:05:31.069 --> 00:05:31.870
dentists or anything.
00:05:31.911 --> 00:05:33.754
And they were messing up people's teeth.
00:05:34.355 --> 00:05:34.896
And it's like,
00:05:36.266 --> 00:05:37.406
You have to protect them.
00:05:37.425 --> 00:05:38.165
I feel like there needs to be some
00:05:38.185 --> 00:05:39.947
sort of protection there.
00:05:39.987 --> 00:05:40.107
Yeah.
00:05:40.166 --> 00:05:41.507
And so one guy got charged with like
00:05:41.586 --> 00:05:43.367
seven hundred years worth of stuff.
00:05:43.387 --> 00:05:44.627
Because he messed up enough people's.
00:05:44.668 --> 00:05:44.867
Yeah.
00:05:45.048 --> 00:05:45.548
That bad.
00:05:45.648 --> 00:05:46.627
And then you also think of like with
00:05:46.668 --> 00:05:47.348
contractors,
00:05:47.369 --> 00:05:48.709
like I used to do construction when I
00:05:48.728 --> 00:05:51.129
was younger and like you get unsavory
00:05:51.149 --> 00:05:51.410
people.
00:05:51.449 --> 00:05:53.029
It's like you have to protect.
00:05:53.189 --> 00:05:53.689
Yeah.
00:05:53.790 --> 00:05:55.911
The people who consume our product.
00:05:55.930 --> 00:05:58.870
So let's let's be here to help protect
00:05:59.071 --> 00:06:01.872
those of those those people and get get
00:06:01.932 --> 00:06:03.952
us out there into these less fortunate
00:06:04.033 --> 00:06:04.213
areas.
00:06:04.233 --> 00:06:04.733
Because like again,
00:06:04.773 --> 00:06:05.692
when I came from Mississippi.
00:06:08.293 --> 00:06:09.454
There was eighty four counties in
00:06:09.475 --> 00:06:09.956
Mississippi.
00:06:09.995 --> 00:06:11.276
Eighty two of them are below the poverty
00:06:11.297 --> 00:06:11.557
line.
00:06:11.937 --> 00:06:13.338
So I'm really saying, hey,
00:06:13.358 --> 00:06:15.141
let's let's take this profession that can
00:06:15.180 --> 00:06:17.502
help people and let's go into these areas
00:06:17.963 --> 00:06:20.045
and share it with people and to help
00:06:20.146 --> 00:06:20.586
all those people.
00:06:20.625 --> 00:06:21.927
That's what I try to try to do
00:06:21.947 --> 00:06:22.107
with it.
00:06:22.127 --> 00:06:23.067
I know that's kind of all over the
00:06:23.088 --> 00:06:23.709
place in the answers.
00:06:23.848 --> 00:06:24.088
No,
00:06:24.129 --> 00:06:26.512
it's also got to be because you said
00:06:26.591 --> 00:06:28.012
we a few more than a few times.
00:06:28.052 --> 00:06:29.033
It's the other people.
00:06:29.494 --> 00:06:30.654
I tell people a lot like, oh,
00:06:30.795 --> 00:06:32.317
I can't do the math on CSM and
00:06:32.396 --> 00:06:33.478
fly all the way there.
00:06:34.158 --> 00:06:35.819
And just for that many CEUs,
00:06:35.839 --> 00:06:37.161
but I can get CEUs on my couch.
00:06:37.180 --> 00:06:37.661
I'm like, my man,
00:06:37.682 --> 00:06:38.543
if you're just flying for CEUs,
00:06:38.562 --> 00:06:40.403
you're missing you're missing the thing.
00:06:40.944 --> 00:06:42.125
The things in the hallways,
00:06:42.586 --> 00:06:44.267
the things that the I mean, unfortunately,
00:06:44.327 --> 00:06:45.809
it's like, yeah, it is the hotel bar.
00:06:45.889 --> 00:06:45.990
It's.
00:06:46.709 --> 00:06:49.093
i said it i hope apk steals it
00:06:49.312 --> 00:06:51.595
which is you if you're a new grad
00:06:51.615 --> 00:06:53.797
you come to csm because hopefully you see
00:06:53.857 --> 00:06:56.980
future versions of yourself everywhere oh
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:59.083
yeah or your spin what am i going
00:06:59.142 --> 00:07:00.644
what impression am i going to leave and
00:07:00.684 --> 00:07:02.466
these pts are all over the country every
00:07:02.485 --> 00:07:02.665
day
00:07:03.466 --> 00:07:05.069
But when you're in physical proximity,
00:07:05.449 --> 00:07:06.490
you can meet someone new,
00:07:07.091 --> 00:07:08.254
propose a collaboration,
00:07:08.353 --> 00:07:09.595
and then something is born.
00:07:09.855 --> 00:07:11.377
And that's if you think you're going to
00:07:11.398 --> 00:07:12.680
get your money back out of the CEUs,
00:07:12.699 --> 00:07:13.199
you're not.
00:07:13.540 --> 00:07:15.543
That's a nice little side quest.
00:07:16.064 --> 00:07:17.206
The main thing is the people.
00:07:17.225 --> 00:07:18.507
That's why we come together.
00:07:18.528 --> 00:07:18.608
Yeah.
00:07:18.968 --> 00:07:19.528
It's so much fun.
00:07:19.788 --> 00:07:22.091
You get here and you come away so
00:07:22.130 --> 00:07:24.492
renewed and you find new products,
00:07:24.713 --> 00:07:25.413
all sorts of great,
00:07:25.452 --> 00:07:27.595
crazy things out here that are just so...
00:07:27.654 --> 00:07:28.956
Test it, jump in it.
00:07:29.096 --> 00:07:29.997
Yeah.
00:07:30.076 --> 00:07:30.997
And you may see like,
00:07:31.718 --> 00:07:32.819
I do have some of the things where
00:07:32.839 --> 00:07:33.199
it's like, hey,
00:07:33.220 --> 00:07:35.521
this thing may not stick around,
00:07:36.081 --> 00:07:37.423
but there's a thought,
00:07:37.463 --> 00:07:40.665
there's something going on there that we
00:07:40.706 --> 00:07:42.187
need to look at and be aware of.
00:07:42.266 --> 00:07:44.329
So that's a really big thing.
00:07:44.369 --> 00:07:45.449
And then also like meeting the people,
00:07:45.470 --> 00:07:46.190
because you never know,
00:07:46.591 --> 00:07:47.612
you meet somebody today and
00:07:48.612 --> 00:07:50.295
they may help you in a year,
00:07:50.334 --> 00:07:50.935
five years.
00:07:51.016 --> 00:07:52.658
You may pull that card out and go,
00:07:52.778 --> 00:07:53.961
hey, I need a job.
00:07:54.752 --> 00:07:56.173
I'm going to call Bob up right here,
00:07:56.194 --> 00:07:56.793
and I can call him up,
00:07:56.874 --> 00:07:58.334
and maybe they can find something.
00:07:58.754 --> 00:08:02.937
It's not that whole cliche of it's not
00:08:02.978 --> 00:08:03.958
what you know, it's who you know.
00:08:04.358 --> 00:08:05.358
I go one step further.
00:08:05.379 --> 00:08:07.680
It's not what you know or just who
00:08:07.701 --> 00:08:08.060
you know.
00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:09.781
It's what they know about you.
00:08:10.442 --> 00:08:11.322
Someone might know me and be like,
00:08:11.382 --> 00:08:12.283
Jimmy's a jerk.
00:08:12.442 --> 00:08:14.685
So if I come up in a job
00:08:15.625 --> 00:08:17.125
reference situation, I know him.
00:08:17.586 --> 00:08:18.247
Don't hire him.
00:08:18.507 --> 00:08:19.807
But it's what do they know about you?
00:08:19.987 --> 00:08:20.747
And you can build.
00:08:20.807 --> 00:08:21.288
You can't.
00:08:21.889 --> 00:08:23.370
You can't buy trust.
00:08:23.470 --> 00:08:25.831
You can try to buy attention,
00:08:26.052 --> 00:08:27.334
but you've got to build trust.
00:08:27.413 --> 00:08:27.994
And I don't know.
00:08:28.053 --> 00:08:29.314
I feel like you speed it up when
00:08:29.334 --> 00:08:30.516
you do something like this in person.
00:08:30.536 --> 00:08:30.697
Oh, yeah.
00:08:30.716 --> 00:08:31.536
It's great.
00:08:31.677 --> 00:08:32.418
You guys have an event.
00:08:32.437 --> 00:08:34.139
Do you have an annual in Texas?
00:08:34.178 --> 00:08:34.940
Oh, yeah.
00:08:35.039 --> 00:08:37.783
It's around October-ish when you typically
00:08:37.822 --> 00:08:38.182
have it.
00:08:38.822 --> 00:08:41.184
I mean, it's nothing as grand as this,
00:08:41.225 --> 00:08:42.265
but you get to see the people from
00:08:42.285 --> 00:08:42.846
around the state.
00:08:42.886 --> 00:08:43.427
You talk.
00:08:43.486 --> 00:08:45.929
People you're on Zoom calls with all year
00:08:45.970 --> 00:08:46.450
doing the work.
00:08:46.570 --> 00:08:48.251
you go have dinner with one another.
00:08:48.852 --> 00:08:49.133
You just,
00:08:49.192 --> 00:08:50.914
you just chat about different stuff.
00:08:51.115 --> 00:08:52.417
Maybe you may even have to talk about
00:08:52.496 --> 00:08:54.798
patient cases or just stuff that you're
00:08:54.818 --> 00:08:55.440
struggling with.
00:08:55.500 --> 00:08:56.140
And it's like, Hey,
00:08:56.221 --> 00:08:58.082
I get these new ideas to kind of
00:08:58.123 --> 00:08:59.163
bounce around and talk about.
00:08:59.183 --> 00:09:00.184
And it's like, it's a lot of fun.
00:09:00.586 --> 00:09:01.427
And even stuff like,
00:09:01.787 --> 00:09:03.828
not even pt comes from it sometimes so
00:09:03.849 --> 00:09:05.971
it's not all pt all the time but
00:09:06.371 --> 00:09:08.033
something something else may come in
00:09:08.053 --> 00:09:10.535
because maybe maybe they have um i don't
00:09:10.556 --> 00:09:11.756
know you want to start a band or
00:09:11.777 --> 00:09:13.558
something oh you play you know guitar you
00:09:13.578 --> 00:09:15.000
play let's go do this we got this
00:09:15.100 --> 00:09:16.822
album seems like a good reason i know
00:09:16.841 --> 00:09:18.344
we can have a band it's named theraband
00:09:18.443 --> 00:09:20.546
i think i stole that there we go
00:09:20.605 --> 00:09:21.086
theraband
00:09:21.606 --> 00:09:23.889
Listen, Picasso said, good artists borrow,
00:09:24.289 --> 00:09:26.072
great artists steal.
00:09:26.331 --> 00:09:28.094
So if you get a good idea for
00:09:28.114 --> 00:09:28.934
a video and twist it.
00:09:29.294 --> 00:09:29.916
I heard someone,
00:09:30.436 --> 00:09:31.638
we were at the Graham Sessions,
00:09:31.658 --> 00:09:34.000
a little meeting put on by PPS a
00:09:34.019 --> 00:09:34.721
couple weeks ago.
00:09:36.022 --> 00:09:36.241
And...
00:09:38.475 --> 00:09:41.259
And someone said, before I wrap up,
00:09:41.820 --> 00:09:42.821
I just want to give you my parting
00:09:42.841 --> 00:09:43.061
shot.
00:09:43.081 --> 00:09:44.341
And I was like, that's my thing.
00:09:45.023 --> 00:09:46.104
But I was like, that's cool.
00:09:46.144 --> 00:09:46.725
You stole it.
00:09:46.745 --> 00:09:47.345
That's all right.
00:09:47.404 --> 00:09:47.946
All right.
00:09:47.966 --> 00:09:50.168
So we will do the parting shot right
00:09:50.227 --> 00:09:51.149
now with Matt.
00:09:51.188 --> 00:09:52.551
Let's do it.
00:09:53.211 --> 00:09:55.234
This is the parting shot.
00:09:55.793 --> 00:09:57.176
One last mic drop moment.
00:09:57.855 --> 00:09:58.677
No pressure.
00:09:59.097 --> 00:10:01.220
Just your legacy on the line.
00:10:02.328 --> 00:10:03.730
All right, Matt Hewitt, your parting shot.
00:10:03.970 --> 00:10:05.291
What's something you want to leave?
00:10:05.331 --> 00:10:07.052
A mic drop moment, a soapbox statement,
00:10:07.133 --> 00:10:07.493
anything?
00:10:07.513 --> 00:10:08.114
Just look in that.
00:10:09.234 --> 00:10:10.634
Give us a parting shot.
00:10:10.696 --> 00:10:11.836
Oh, does that get put on the spot?
00:10:11.895 --> 00:10:12.856
Now I can't think.
00:10:13.398 --> 00:10:13.597
Well,
00:10:13.658 --> 00:10:15.158
what's the big thing you hope that changes
00:10:15.178 --> 00:10:16.840
in the profession in the next year,
00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:17.980
three years, something?
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:19.282
What's the thing you're hopeful for?
00:10:19.302 --> 00:10:21.624
Gosh, now it goes.
00:10:26.288 --> 00:10:27.509
Of all the times I talk and I
00:10:27.568 --> 00:10:28.428
run out of something.
00:10:30.150 --> 00:10:31.211
Okay, like you said earlier.
00:10:32.273 --> 00:10:34.315
Every â I'm going to talk about students.
00:10:34.394 --> 00:10:35.056
I'm going to talk about students.
00:10:35.076 --> 00:10:35.296
Good.
00:10:35.395 --> 00:10:36.817
Whenever you work with students,
00:10:37.498 --> 00:10:38.798
I tell every single one of them,
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:41.302
I want to leave a little piece of
00:10:41.361 --> 00:10:41.961
me with you.
00:10:42.602 --> 00:10:45.264
So you're going to form your own way
00:10:45.304 --> 00:10:46.947
of how to treat or how to evaluate
00:10:46.966 --> 00:10:47.528
or do whatever,
00:10:47.567 --> 00:10:49.208
but I want to have a little piece
00:10:49.269 --> 00:10:50.990
of me that I gave to you that
00:10:51.030 --> 00:10:51.630
you take it,
00:10:51.691 --> 00:10:53.833
and then a little piece of you will
00:10:53.854 --> 00:10:55.034
go on to the next one and then
00:10:55.054 --> 00:10:55.495
the next one.
00:10:55.514 --> 00:10:57.216
So you will continue on.
00:10:57.576 --> 00:10:59.597
because you did something with somebody,
00:10:59.998 --> 00:11:01.038
and they will carry it on,
00:11:01.078 --> 00:11:01.739
and they will carry it on.
00:11:01.759 --> 00:11:03.440
So a little piece of you will just
00:11:03.580 --> 00:11:05.441
keep going through this profession based
00:11:05.500 --> 00:11:08.721
upon what you did with students or
00:11:08.741 --> 00:11:11.003
whomever now, today.
00:11:11.644 --> 00:11:12.604
Hit them with the Instagram account,
00:11:12.624 --> 00:11:13.565
just so they can follow you online.
00:11:13.605 --> 00:11:17.145
