| 0:00.0 | All right, all right. What's up? Welcome to Side Hustle School. My name is Chris |
| 0:14.0 | Galloway. Today on the podcast, we have Alex. Alex is an engineer from Alberta, Canada. |
| 0:19.3 | He's keen to start his own side hustle, but he's short on time. Isn't that just about |
| 0:23.7 | everybody? Like I don't mean to generalize, but don't we all want to make extra money? |
| 0:27.5 | Aren't we all pretty short on time? I mean, that's kind of my target market here. If you're |
| 0:32.0 | listening to Side Hustle School and you fit that description, awesome. Every single day |
| 0:35.8 | I make this podcast for you, entirely for you. Now, Alex specifically came across the concept |
| 0:41.3 | of business boot camps at some point. Not sure if it was a different podcast or something |
| 0:45.4 | else, but he heard about this idea of a boot camp. He found the idea of fully setting |
| 0:49.4 | up a side hustle within a few days to be pretty appealing. And in fact, a lot of people |

| 1:06.2 | But still, a short version of that. I'm not sure actually have a great recommendation |
| 1:09.6 | for Alex, but I'm going to do my best to be helpful. So when I don't always have a direct |
| 1:14.4 | answer, I try to think, what else can I do to maybe add value to the question and not |
| 1:18.3 | just to the person asking the question, but perhaps to you as well, our listeners. Thank |
| 1:22.7 | you for being out there listeners. You're amazing. I appreciate our sponsors as well. |
| 1:26.1 | I got a short little message for them or at least on their behalf. I guess it's technically |
| 1:29.4 | for you on their behalf. And then let's talk about business boot camps. |
| 1:52.7 | We're kicking off at 5.30 p.m. |
| 1:55.0 | Let's do boot camps! |
