| 0:00.0 | VaynerNation, what's good? With VCon going on this week, we're doing a couple throwback |
| 0:03.9 | podcasts because we are super head down at VCon. By the way, immediately, all of you listening, |
| 0:10.4 | you need to get your act together. All of you need to be at VCon 2024 next year. Keep an eye |
| 0:15.5 | on that. Go to vcon.co, to check out the speakers what we're up to in the Indianapolis this week. |
| 0:23.1 | But now let's go to the throwback podcast. A lot of you missed these, so make sure you check it. |
| 0:30.0 | This is the Gary V. Audio Experience. |
| 1:00.0 | On the right place on the macro, let me give you an example on the macro. A stunning majority of people in here |
| 1:06.0 | are not unlocking the full max potential, predicated on a lack of self-awareness. You'd like to be something |
