0:00.0	Hi and 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 are willing to do what it takes to get there.
0:08.1	Today we have the man who helped create one of the most viral moments ever for the one only, the Taylor Swift.
0:14.1	We have the man who also was a Ringling Brothers and Barnaby Circus Ringmaster, also toured with Disney. One of the most
