Welcome to Spartan Up Podcast. This is a really, really unique episode. We have Joe, Colonel Nye,

Sepfra, Johnny, Marion. That's not what's unique. We're always here. But we're the only ones here this week.

Because what we're going to do, we're going to actually talk about

some of the interviews that are coming up.

We are talking off camera about how incredible this group is.

And we've had some amazing interviews but we're just like wow

how incredible we are no no but it's just like one half another another

these big hitters these big thinkers it's probably 50 in a row we had that were

just incredible yeah like mind-blowing stuff.

And you know, Marion suggested, hey, why don't we talk about that and what's coming up?

So one of the things that I really noticed as a trend amongst these next ones is how many of them are connectors. You know whether

it's a Naval Ravakant who has created angel list that's all about connecting

people and bringing these investors together with these enterprises.

Joe Polish?

Joe Polish who's all about, you know, creating this thing with these big thinkers.

Roman Sundar, who's brought thought leaders from all these different industries.

That really struck me that we're talking to people who

are about bringing other people together for a greater good.

Joe, what do you think it is that's caused that to sort of be our trend right now?

You know, I think I think that idea of you're an average of your five best friends.

I think you want to be around people that pull you up.

We think about it with Spartan or any company, right?
