| 0:00.0 | Hey, token CEO listeners. You can find every episode on Apple podcasts, Spotify or YouTube. |
| 0:06.9 | Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon music. All right, you ready? All right, I'm ready. |
| 0:12.8 | So it's Black Friday season. Thanks, giveings coming up. You know we love Black Friday and Cyber Monday |
| 0:18.5 | here. Macy's is doing early access to Black Friday and Cyber Monday. So from Wednesday, November |
| 0:24.6 | 4th to Sunday, November 15th, Macy's is getting ahead of their Black Friday sales and they're |
| 0:30.2 | giving you discounts ahead of time. If you go to macy's.com slash Black Friday, you can start |
| 0:36.4 | saving now one year. So we so just for anybody who cares Black Friday every year is just a frigging |

| 1:36.6 | And then I'm trying to think about what happened last year. |
| 1:41.1 | Last year, it might have been calm. The year before we sold, we sold thousands of Viva sweaters. |
| 1:48.0 | We made Viva sweaters. Kevin Clancy had made this line called Viva, which had this quilted pullover. |
