Jared Polan Froano's photo.com, and this is the Daily Fro for May 2, 2018. The time now is 9.34 p.m.

0:09.7

This is episode number 93, where I sit down sometime during the day and share what is on my mind with you,

0:15.9

and you can share what's on your mind with me by calling 267454-6376 or sending a text message and doing

0:24.3

stuff like that. So today, I've got a couple of things to talk about. First, I enjoyed making

0:31.4

the photo news fix that went up. It's a funnier one. There's a lot more comedy in there. Stephen

0:36.0

edited this one. Dan was editing or still editing the Paris vlog, which is a 20-ish minute-long freaking vlog. But hopefully it's going to be good and funny and good and funny. I like making the photo news fix. They're fun to write. They're fun to do sometimes. And I hope you guys

0:56.4

enjoy listening to it. And I hope you enjoy watching it. So if you didn't know, I do those once a week

1:01.4

as long as there's news. And next week when we're away at the Sony event, there's another Sony event

1:06.2

coming up, but it doesn't mean new camera. This is a gathering that they do, I guess, every year now

1:12.4

But we'll be doing one from the road next week,

1:20.4

and it hopefully is good again.

So I had a call today, a business call.

1:28.3

Like, I'm going to go delicate here, but I don't think it really much matters because I'm deciding that it's not the right fit for me.

1:37.3

But I feel these calls from time to time where people want to work with you, whether it's an MCN or a manager.

1:43.6

And they come out of nowhere

1:44.9

because somebody's just searching around and like, oh, well, maybe this person would like to work

1:48.9

with us. And that's when an underling is doing their job. They're going and searching for talent,

1:53.3

quote, end quote, and then they bring it to the boss. And the boss is like, okay, I like or I don't like it. And then they set up a call and then you listen to what they have to say.

2:02.3

But one of the things that always gets me and it becomes more evident every time I have one of these calls is that the underlings do their job, which is what they're supposed to do.

2:12.2

They watch your videos. They learn a little bit about you. They do some research. And then the bosses get on the phone and know nothing pretty much about you.
