The worst moment for our business came when we were, the company was generating $28, $29 million that year,

and we almost lost the business because even success can destroy a company.

And what we were dealing with at that moment is success was destroying our company.

Well, well, it was only a matter of time before this happened. My friend, co-founder, co-CEO, and most importantly, the God King of the Daily Wire, Jeremy Boring, moved to L.A. as a young man with stars in his eyes 20 years ago, and now we are in the midst of pulling our thriving business out of this garbage state for a new home. Before this company, Jeremy hustled around Hollywood for a long time. He became good friends with people who'd go on to have big careers all the while working for his own big break. He did some acting. He wrote and pitched movies around town. He produced several of them at production companies he started with his buddies over the years. He even ran the inconspicuous organization Friends of Aid, a group formed to bring together the people on the right working

throughout Hollywood. It was through this group, Jeremy and I met. We knew early on we'd do

business together. We thought we struck gold with our first venture, but that went bust when

Jeremy was abruptly fired, which is okay because it led us to create a Daily Wire. You'll hear

the full epic Jeremy Ben origin story here today. We'll also discuss the man that moved Jeremy to conservatism and the big plans for

Daily Wire when we touched down in National Tennessee.

I mean, you literally just came down and now we're talking. Yeah, like I owned that and that, that, that, that's good to be here. So, yeah, this is kind of weird. I mean, it's a weird setup. We talk literally hours a day, and now we're going to talk in front of a camera, So we can't say any of the things we would say off camera because we're on camera.

So why don't we, it's also weird because I don't know which questions to ask you since I know so many of the answers already. So why don't we start with how did Jeremy Boring grow up?

You know, Texan boy, Slate in Texas. Explain the upbringing of Jeremy Boring media mogul.

Yeah. So like all media moguls, I come from humble beginnings.

I was born in a small town in West Texas called Slayton, population of about six, seven

thousand, something like that.

And my dad's a railroader.

Mom, stay-at-home mom.

And, you know, it's a wonderful town.

It isn't really known for much.

I mean, Peggy Sue from the Buddy Holly song, Peggy Sue, I think, was born there.

And Bobby Keys was born there.
