Hi, welcome back to the Big Deal podcast. I'm Cody Sanchez, and this is for those of you who don't want to just be rich, but free and do what it takes to get there. Okay, this week, Brian Callan, oh my fucking God, so good. I was on the floor laughing this entire podcast, also learning things that I never expected to learn. If you don't know Brian, he has been an actor and a comedian for decades. You might have seen him in The Hangover One, the Hangover Two, you know, ride along. He had Mad TV. He is on Joe Rogan constantly. In fact, he left my podcast today and went to Joe Rogan afterwards. Brian is an incredibly skilled actor and comedian with a huge Netflix special that's going to be coming out soon.

But I think one of the most interesting parts about this podcast today was listening to, if you want to be funny, is there a way to actually do it?

And I loved his answer on this.

If you're a young man and you're not maybe getting as many chicks as you want or the attention

that you want, could you use comedy to actually solve that? Three, do comedians make any money

and how? Same goes with actors. Four, what's going on right now with all of these politicians

on these comedic platforms? What's happening? Why? And I think that answer sort of blew me away.

And then finally, some kind of deep questions about how do you become a better human? How do you

become a better parent? Maybe especially if you've got a little cash and you want your kid to

be better than you were. And a wild story about what it actually takes to be really successful

over time and his answer surprised me. It's not going to be what you think. So without further ado,

let's get into Brian Callan and apologize for the hyena cackle of mine you're going to hear often.

Although sometimes they call it a donkey bray. You could really take your pick. Let's get

into Brian. Oh, wait. Also, you guys, if you haven't subscribed to the podcast,

make sure you do. And this week, we just went right into this bad boy. There's no like,

hi, Brian, hi, Cody. Thank you for coming to the podcast. We just roll. So tell me if you like that

this week, will you? We tell me in the YouTube comments and also let me know on the actual podcast. Okay, off we go. I love talking to my friends on this podcast

about how they made their millions, how they became owners, how to solve their problems. And I

love sharing these talks with you guys because I think that's how we get rich together. But when I

can't meet in person to do this, there's one tool I use Riverside. Riverside ensures I can talk to

anyone anywhere, record it in high resolution,

and have a quality video that I can share. Riverside records separate audio and video tracks so we can
