0:12.8	Philipo. As always, today we're talking with my friend Aubrey Marquez. Man, this guy is an
0:18.3	interesting character. He started a company called On It. It's a fitness and nutrition company.

1:32.8	well, college degree, do I want a degree or do I want to find somebody who just works hard and
