SPEAKER_03 0:39

But it has this new book called AI Prompts for Profits. So we're here to talk all AI, how you can use it ethically, legally, uh, don't be afraid. There's good, the bad, the ugly, all the things is Earl Wadd. Earl, welcome.

SPEAKER_01 0:55

Thank you. Hello. Good to be back on the show.

SPEAKER_03 0:58

I'm very excited. Thank you very much. Yeah, I've been looking forward to this because when people when I got really popular in the in the forefront of people's minds, some people thought, like, oh no, the machines are going to take over. Haven't you seen Terminator and all the other, you know, all the other things? Uh and the same time, some people were like, they depend solely on it and they won't learn a single skill, or you know, I mean, there's there's all sorts of in-betweens.

SPEAKER_02 1:24

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 1:25

Um in fact, going to when AI got popular, so my daughters in high school, it's about to finish, and they were like, don't use AI. And I understand the point of view because they want the kids to think, but then again, you kind of want them to use the future tools. There's a there's a happy medium. I just don't know where it is. And I understand everybody's point of view, but I just won't want people to be afraid of it. They can use it just like they used the internet back in the late 90s, you know, and it started. Um, so so in your point of view, like let's get the AI, good, bad, ugly, out of the way, and then we could bridge it to how people can use it on their regular basis, whether it's for their business, for their livelihood, uh, all sorts of things. Um, you know, why AI?

unknown 2:07

Yep.

SPEAKER_01 2:07

Uh excellent question, and definitely uh on point right now, because it AI is everywhere. It is uh literally disrupting every industry, every business uh is being impacted by it. Uh I've said for um probably years now that uh AI isn't going to replace you, but people who know how to use AI can replace you. Right. Um I I feel personally that it is uh critically vital that every single person get familiar with using AI. If they're if they're in business, right? It it's it's not an option anymore because everybody who is using it is going to outperform the people who aren't. Um I don't know if you saw there was an email that was leaked from the CEO of the the company Fiverr, the place where you go and hire people to do just about anything for you creatively. Um he sent an email to his employees, uh, and I'll just paraphrase he basically said, AI is coming for your job. If you want to keep your job, you better get good at using AI, because like I said, if somebody uh doesn't know how to use AI, they're gonna get replaced by somebody who does. And uh it was a pretty harsh, stark uh letter. He goes, but you know, it's coming for my job too, right? He wasn't uh being um just pointing it as his employees. He was trying to raise awareness that it's time to realize that AI is the future, and if you're not using it, um you're you're gonna be left behind, right?

SPEAKER_03 3:58

Yeah, so we kind of look at it like a tool like people hundreds of years ago didn't want to use a telephone, people didn't want to use an automobile, people didn't want to use an airplane to let them want to use well, so many people did not want to use the internet, let alone even email back uh we're in the same ages. So I can see it where it's it's just another tool. In fact, when you think about Google, it's Google pretty much was AI. I mean, they kind of you know helped do the like it's not as uh scary as most, it's not like a giant change, it's just it's just becoming a little bit easier to use, and it's it's it's more of a shortcut tool. And I think people understood that. And okay, yeah, so it could take some people's jobs away. Um the automobile took uh horse buggy drivers away. Yep, absolutely. Um but I don't want people to be afraid, but then there's there's always a human element and there's uh human prompts that have to use AI. So I'm looking at it that from that perspective. They say, okay, if you you utilize the AI just like a tool, just like the internet, the automobile, et cetera. Yeah, and so as long as they know how to use it, then it can make their lives even easier and faster, I'd imagine, right?

SPEAKER_01 5:10

Yes, absolutely. It's not uh it's not um replacing us, it's just making what we do better, easier, and faster, uh, and cheaper if you if you equate it to dollars, right? So it's it's a a full, it's I don't know what the right word for four things is, but it's a trifecta of four things, all coming together unlike anything before. There's never been something that did all of that better, faster, easier, cheaper. Uh there's usually three at the most, right? But um the AI evolution or revolution it hits all four of those pieces. And if you are open to using it and embrace it, um, it is phenomenally useful as a tool, right? It can help you with marketing, it can help you with creativity. I did a training two weeks ago uh that you never have to stare at a blank page again, right? If you're trying to come up with ideas and and uh content for even simple things like email or posting on uh social media or whatever, it it is such a powerful tool. It is and you're limiting yourself if you're not using it.

SPEAKER_03 6:26

Okay. Well, for obviously there's business uses, there's personal uses, there's so many uses, and there's so many there's free, there's paid, there's there's so much out there. And I use a a little bit, you know, there's a free version, a paid version of different things that I use. Yeah, but it's not about me. So for the average person that's listening that has no idea what AI is, or they just they tried something, they paid for something, it was useless, whatever. Like, what could every single person do just to start off for for free? Yeah, that would see some value in their life, possibly kind of like you know, your basic AI that is like a kind of a Google Plus shortcut type of thing.

SPEAKER_01 7:05

Yeah, yeah, absolutely. So the the starting point I recommend to everybody is the the company OpenAI. They have the tool called ChatGPT. Uh, you can find it by going to that URL, chatgpt.com. Uh they have a free tier. You can use it a lot for free. Um, you don't get the you know the premium features, but you can use it, use the heck out of it. You can do prompts and and create images, you can create text responses, all kinds of things for free. And it is immensely powerful, even just in the free tier. So that's where I recommend everybody starts. I recommend that if they're going to use it every day, like I do and like I I suggest that they should, that they have a one-tier up, a paid subscription that's $20 a month. Um, you can't even go to McDonald's for a single meal for $20 anymore. And this is so much better than a McDonald's meal that give you the premium features, uh, gives you the latest, what they call large language model, which is the brains behind the the AI. Uh, and for 20 bucks in Chat GPT, you can do um amazing things.

SPEAKER_03 8:26

Okay, yeah, easy. And it looks pretty similar to like when I go to Google and just do a Google search, but I want to use AI and things like that. Like it'll show AI results. Um similar, but I mean it's everywhere. So it won't start with the free, and you'll probably update to uh like a tier one type of thing.

SPEAKER_01 8:44

Yep, but it's called the pro subscription, and it it that tool alone is starting to eclipse Google's search, right? People are using that for their search engine now because it gives uh better uh tailored, focused, targeted results, especially if you know how to ask.

SPEAKER_03 9:03

Yeah, I think that's the big thing is I guess if you're more specific talk about your niche, it's really going to help it versus what should I go out to eat? What should I eat tonight? Good luck.

SPEAKER_01 9:20

Yeah, you can um I teach uh a method called the role task format for using to ask it very good questions, right? Um and it I can share my website. I have a free gift where people can learn this. They go to freegift from earl.com. Um they can download a full description of the role task format, RTF format, um, and start using it right away, right? So that's one thing I would recommend. You can do things like um provide it using that, you can provide it context. Like I uh want to figure out what I want to eat tonight, right? Um I want you to act as an expert in the local uh food market here in Dallas. Uh I want you to uh be aware that I have gluten and dairy allergies. Um please give me a list of the top 10 restaurants that I might want to consider, right? And that's a very targeted, specific question with context, a role, and a task. Um, you can add the format, give me that as a uh bulleted list by the most popular to the least popular, right? And then that gives it the format. So those three three pieces give you a very powerful, focused result that just saying, hey, where should I go to eat uh in Chat GPT won't give you right? You'll get an answer, it'll give you some answer, right? It's pretty good. Uh but if you if you give it this context, the role, task, and format, the response is going to really be beneficial, really powerful.

SPEAKER_03 10:59

Okay. And so yeah, I mean that that's great. People can every single person can use that versus okay, I click on the Google map and click on restaurants. But then also in a you know, prospecting mode where people are looking for prospects around their area, they can be very specific on what they like to do. That way they feel comfortable hanging out with people in certain uh hobbies and clubs and things like that. And it's not like, well, where do I find the most prospecting? No, where do I find like-minded people? And I think that's where people can really use it to see um results versus nobody, I don't know anybody. Well, yeah, start using it.

SPEAKER_01 11:35

Yep, absolutely. And you can use that same role task format, right? You can say, you know, I'm in the healthcare industry. I'd like you to consider uh where people who are looking for healthcare products uh might congregate, where they would gather, where they would meet up socially. Uh, give me a list of 10 locations that I might want to go and either create a meetup group for or just go visit that location, right? And Chat GPT will spit that right out, just like that.

SPEAKER_02 12:07

There you go.

SPEAKER_03 12:10

Uh absolutely easy. Every single person can do it uh for free to start off with. Yeah. Uh which which I love. And yeah, I mean, it's it's crazy where we'll look back 10 years ago, like, how did we live without this? Um type of thing. But right now, um use it. You know, you're just gonna say you're gonna save so much time in everything that you do. Um any other good, bad thing you see or things that people should be aware of before they just start clicking? Uh sure.

SPEAKER_01 12:40

So a lot, a lot of good, a lot of uh a little bit of bad. So let's do the good. Um, you don't have to use it for uh all business, right? You can have fun with it. Uh recently um there's been a trend, and I helped contribute to it a little bit, I think, of turning you into Lego characters, Lego toys. So I've I've created probably 15 or 20 different Lego images um related to uh popular movies. So, like there's a little Lego of me running away from uh a Torontourus Rex for the Jurassic Park style movie. There's uh uh a Lego of me with um uh uh a rainy day and umbrella for singing in the rain, right? So just a lot of little fun stuff like that you can do with Chat GPT by using their image generator that's built in. Again, you can do that for the free one as well as the paid one. I think the results are better in the paid one, but it still works. So uh there's you can have all kinds of fun. You could uh, I mean, silly stuff, tell me a joke, right? Uh um you can do something like, and this uh this is some people might think this is bad or good, I don't know. Uh on Facebook, everybody it shows everybody's birthday, right? And most of the time you get a little pop-up and you can click a button that says happy birthday and some balloons or whatever, right? And that's almost to the noise point where you know you'll get 50 or however many of those showing up in your feed, and it's nice, it's appreciated, and the thought is good. But an example, there's a gentleman that I met at uh an event last year. He is uh a person who works a lot with uh veterans to help them um avoid suicide, to help them contribute in civilian life instead of military life where when they get out, right? And his foundation is doing great work. Um, I'm working on a book that is targeted at helping reduce teen suicide. So I want to build a connection with him because we can help each other. And it was his birthday the other day, and I got the little pop-up, happy birthday, Jeremy. I was like, I was just about to hit the button. I thought, I want to do something a little more meaningful. So I went into chat and I said, Hey, this is my acquaintance. We met at this event. Uh uh, he and I share this, this, and this. Please craft me something that I can wish him a very nice birthday message, right? And so it spit something back out. I tweaked it just a tiny bit and put that in instead of just the happy birthday and sent that. He got hundreds of messages for his birthday. He's a well-known figure or uh uh persona. Um of all the messages when I checked last, the only one that he responded to was mine. And that was because I got the help, the assist from chat to craft a meaningful message, right? So the power behind this, it's not just all business. There's a lot of personal personality, uh, that kind of thing that you can bring to it. Now, on the bad side is um it can there's something called hallucinate, right? It can hallucinate, which means sometimes it'll just totally make something up. Uh, an example where I use it, um, I craft uh uh cover letters for job applications, and I've fed it all of my historical information, my work experience and everything. And then I'll put in uh a description of a job that I'm interested in applying for. And it'll create the cover letter, and sometimes it'll totally make something up. Like I've got uh 15 years working with ambulances, or I was like, I've never worked with ambulances, right? So you gotta you gotta review what it comes out. You don't ever just want to copy and paste, you want to make sure that it's not hallucinating, right? And that it's truthful information for stuff like that, right? So uh be cautious of hallucinations. Uh, but um I it's it's good practice. Read whatever it creates before you share it with anybody else.

SPEAKER_03 17:07

Yeah, I could see where it just kind of comes up to its own conclusions, assumptions, uh things like that. Yeah, that's just the more you use it, the more personal it is. Um I like the personal personalization thing because yeah, so many people like if everyone says happy birthday, sometimes they add their name, sometimes they add an emoji, some yeah, and then if you have like actual um a paragraph or uh send it in messages or uh even even just you know texting people instead of uh messaging. But I like the Lego thing. So the big thing is will Lego do this for you? Like, you know, shouldn't they print this stuff out for you? If not, you know, can you create something where it takes the AI and turns it into a uh a 3D printer file? Like we we can make so much money on that.

SPEAKER_01 17:51

Absolutely. Yeah, that's a beautiful idea. I hadn't even thought about taking it from the the image to a physical uh using a uh 3D printer. You could print those and you know have your own set of Legos about you and your family or friends, right? That'd be so fun.

SPEAKER_00 18:14

You're in a networker zone with Rider.

SPEAKER_03 18:19

It's gotta be something because at the yeah, I know you still have to do a little painting and things like that. But at the same time, like for recognition, for leaders, your best customers, like that would be the coolest thing. Yeah. Um, you know, I'm not downing gift cards. We can only have so many diff cards. We have a personalized Lego thing, people are gonna keep that.

SPEAKER_02 18:36

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 18:37

It becomes a fridge magnet, whatever.

SPEAKER_01 18:39

Yeah, yeah, there you go. I love that idea. That is phenomenal. I hadn't even thought about that, but yeah.

SPEAKER_03 18:44

Well, I know I got a 3D printer in the other room. Let's go.

SPEAKER_01 18:47

So along along those lines, another AI thing, and that and I do this very regularly. There's a tool that I use that creates music. Uh, it will not just create instrumentals, but it actually creates vocals. It provides uh, you give it a text prompt, like create uh, and and this is what I do a lot create a birthday song for my friend Keith. He's he runs the Networking Zone podcast, and he is uh, you know, whatever characteristics you're you give it uh a few details, and then it'll create the lyrics, it'll create the instrumentals behind it, and it'll create the vocals. And you can ask it in different styles. I'd like that to be a bluegrass song, or I'd like that to be a pop song, or uh uh, you know, whatever it might be, a rock ballad, whatever you think they're gonna like, and then it'll create a fully finished song for them for their birthday. That's what I use it a lot for. Uh, and then you send that to them on their birthday. I've had people say that it brought them to tears, it was the best gift I got the whole year. I mean, it it it really lands. And it in you know, 20-minute session, you've created this song that they will never forget. You want to make an impact, that's a way to do it.

SPEAKER_03 20:05

Yeah, yeah. Get get Lego Earl to sing it too. We got this, we're good to go. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. Okay, all right, neat. So, yeah, be careful what uh what you put in or you know, proofread, like you said. So the downsides. But I like like the more personalization the better. And that's what people want. Um you know, you we get so many like spam emails and texts and all sorts of junk, and just that little personalization will help stand out from the noise, whether it's spam or whether it's uh somebody hot that's cold, your friend, whatever. I think that's that's uh so powerful. Um now, as far as emotion, do you use like emotional words to help it narrow it down or like how specific can you get?

SPEAKER_01 20:55

You you can get very specific. You can uh tell it, uh I want this in a conversational style, or I want this in a professional tone, or I want this to be in legal ease, right? So you can you whatever you can think of, pretty much, it'll give you that back. Um, you can have it uh create content that is in the style of somebody. So for example, um I would I would say uh write an email uh that is persuasive, brief, and to the point focused on um outcomes and results in the style of um Tom Big Al Schreider.

SPEAKER_02 21:40

Right?

SPEAKER_01 21:41

And it'll give me content that is kind of like what he would write. Um again, you want to proofread everything, but then you can use that and sound like like Big Al, right? Or you can uh it could be Tony Robbins or whoever it is that you want to uh kind of. You can do that very easily with that. There's another aspect of it as well. If perhaps you're working with a client that English isn't their first language, right? And you don't speak Spanish or French or whatever it is, Chinese, you can craft your message and then take some or all of it and say, translate this into Spanish, right? And then when you send it, you can have it in their native language instead of in English making a deeper connection, right?

SPEAKER_02 22:35

Okay. Wow. Okay.

SPEAKER_01 22:36

So this is just a start. Imagine what it's going to be like in 10 years. Yeah, it's already getting really interesting. There's a tool I use that allows you to clone your own voice so that you can have audio that's in your voice, literally sounds just like you. Um, you can take that translation of Spanish, put it into this tool, and then it'll speak in your voice that with accent and everything, uh, that foreign language or that language, it's not your your first language, right? Okay.

SPEAKER_03 23:10

Yeah. That's uh so yeah, literally all across the world, um, things are things can happen.

SPEAKER_01 23:18

Yeah, you can you're now globally uh yeah, your global reach because you can you can share your message in any language. Um and I haven't tried it yet, but I thought this the other day. I was sharing the same idea with somebody else, and it popped in my head. I'm a Star Trek fan, and I thought, I wonder if they've got Klingon. And I could start having it speak Klingon in my voice, right? So I can guarantee they do, don't they? I bet they do. I'm I'm writing it down because I'm gonna try that today.

SPEAKER_02 23:47

Oh it's making a comeback. All right.

SPEAKER_03 23:53

Uh I I think it's pretty cool that people can play around with these things, but everyone has to start. They have to do something, you know. At least get the free tier, play around. It's just like a take Google, but just it's like your personal Google assistant. Um, not like the little Google Home, it's way better. Yeah, and and yeah, if people just start doing something and then they can play around with it, it just kind of helps brainstorm. Like you can type in like um it can kind of proofread and do a little grammar as well. I know there's grammar and there's Google Docs, it's not the same. Where you can say, okay, I'm gonna send this to a prospect. I'm going to use this uh even just icebreaker and things like that. And like, does this make sense? Or is like, oh wait, no, you have two negatives and you have, you know, it fixes that. Proofreads, yeah, it's like your own personal proofreader. Which is great because I'm not a proofreader at all.

SPEAKER_01 24:49

Yeah, I use it for that a lot. I'll write an email myself and I'll drop it in and say, hey, how can I make this uh communicate more clearly, make it more conversational, um, you know, make it better, essentially. And it will spit back a revised version, very similar, but improved. Uh, and I you can do that all day long.

SPEAKER_03 25:12

Okay, yeah. Conversational. I'm glad you mentioned that word because some of people are like, I'm just gonna type in these dry facts. Nobody's gonna read that. Yes, unless they're really interested at the very beginning. Yep, and in the green personality, maybe. Yeah. If they're greener than us and they really wanted it, they would actually use it. Conversational. So that's another prompt that people could use. Okay, perfect. Man, we got some some cool stuff, and I'll definitely um add a link to your book. You know, you just came out with this the end of last year, right? The uh AI prompt for profit.

SPEAKER_01 25:45

AI prompts for profit just at the end of the year, I think, in December. Um, it is uh a full course on creating content with AI. It will uh there's there's prompts in there, literally copy and paste that you can go through and um create your brand, create ideal customer avatars, uh, how to do ideal communications, uh, how to learn how to prompt well using the role task format. That's where it starts off as the foundation uh because you want to be able to ask it good questions, right? Um so it goes through that, yeah. The the the uh book is available on Amazon, and um you can get the digital version uh by I think I've got it on my website under the books. Uh, but you can get for free the the first section on the foundation, the how to ask it, what good question, roll task format. Um, so yeah, that that would be a start for free, right? Trying to keep the cost down.

SPEAKER_03 26:49

Yeah, there you go. And everybody, and it's one of those things that uh it's for free, just put it to use. There you go. And if you're like me, sometimes we forget to use free things, just buy the book. Either way, yeah, either way, just do something. That's what I want everyone to do.

SPEAKER_01 27:02

Play around, do something. Yep, yeah. And I would recommend everybody open up chatgpt.com today and just type in some stuff. Get if they've never used it, start to explore, experiment. You can't hurt anything, right? You can uh just try things out and then iterate. Uh if you get an answer back and it's like, I thought that was gonna be different, say, hey, I thought that was gonna be different. You can literally have a conversation with it and it will get better.

SPEAKER_03 27:32

Yeah, I'm just thinking about the first time when the internet came out. If you didn't type things in perfectly, you know, 404, do you whatever it doesn't exist? Now it's uh it's thinking for you, it's correcting the spelling and the all the stuff.

SPEAKER_01 27:48

It's crazy thinking about this. Yeah, how far it's come. And AI is only gonna be even faster sooner, right? Uh, you're gonna see uh incredible changes because of AI. I mean, it's gonna be profoundly impacting like the field of medicine, right? I I see in in not the not distant future um diseases that we've wrestled with forever being cured or at least having uh ways to mitigate them, right? Reduce the effects or whatever. Um the technology, uh the like self-driving cars, things of that nature are gonna only keep getting better to the point where you'll, when you call an Uber, there won't be a driver. The car will just show up and take you where you need to go, right? It'll be completely autonomous. There'll be um language uh in Star Trek. They had something called the universal translator, right? And you can already now start to get earbuds that have AI uh in them enough that you can hear instant translation as you're talking. So the universal translators here. I mean, the the the future is gonna be so different, even five years from now, it's almost not going to be recognizable.

SPEAKER_03 29:07

So yeah, yeah, pretty cool, uh exciting. Some people be scary, but at the same time, you just stay as a good person and put other people's thoughts in front of you, you always win in the end. So don't be too scared, everybody.

SPEAKER_01 29:21

Yeah, don't be scared. It's it's it's gonna be uh a much, much improved uh experience for everybody, I think.

SPEAKER_03 29:29

Yeah, and it's neat, like the more information it gets. Well, here's an example. It's like eight years ago, I was joking with this uh doctor, I won't say what uh field she was in, but at the same time, uh I said, Oh yeah, you know, I could be a doctor, I can just look up a YouTube video. She goes, You have no idea how many times we look up YouTube videos. And she goes, all joking aside, because there's always new information out there. You know, what I studied two years ago and ten years ago is totally irrelevant. So sometimes, yeah, we have to kind of look at other things, and yeah, we we use YouTube a lot. Now, obviously, that's not the final thing. They still have to, you know, use her knowledge and use the reasoning, all this sort of stuff. So the thing of it is it's like we're that doctor, like we use all the information, but we still have to like, okay, what what do I really want to say? Who am I really uh who uh who am I to say these words? Is is this something I'm using and things like that? So yeah, if a doctor could use YouTube, we could use this.

SPEAKER_01 30:28

Absolutely, 100% agree. Yeah, I've seen that. Um, I don't know if it was YouTube, but like the the total knee replacement. Um, having that done was a very invasive surgery where they cut through a lot of muscles and everything. And recently they've come out with what they call the jiffy knee replacement, where and they do it in a different mode. It's totally new, right? Relatively speaking. Uh, but the recovery time goes from like a six-month recovery to two weeks. It's incredible the that that's come out, right? So, like you said, the doctor's got to keep current. Uh, most knee surgeons may not have known about that yet, right? So they've got to check the YouTube.

unknown 31:16

Yeah.

SPEAKER_03 31:16

What do you say, Jiffy? I just think a jiffy loop like you drive through, just put your knee out the window. You stick it out the window and you drive home and walk away. Exactly. Oh well, I I know you're swapping. I know you got a lot going on. Uh, you got uh sessions and trainings you gotta get to, and uh appreciate it. And I'll, you know, things will be different in a couple months. Things will be different in a couple years. Yeah, I'll definitely have you back on. But there's so much that everyone can use right away uh to to make a difference. So I do appreciate um your time today. But you know, you've been on the show a couple times. You know the drill. I got the three questions for the lightning round. All right, all right. You ready? Yes, bring them on. Well, and nothing with my last name, by the way with your last name. What's another book that you think everybody should read? It could be a business book, it could be a personal book, it just could be uh anything that has paper.

Um there's a book a friend of mine just published. It's called Take a Breather Over Achiever. It's about setting healthy boundaries. Uh, it's a quick read, fun, um, excellent book. It's by uh Meg McSherry, and you can get it on Amazon. You can I think you can get it on our website, same megmacsherry.com. So that would be one I recommend.

SPEAKER_03 32:30

Yeah. Yeah, I think we should all do that, especially as we get busier lives. Always good to have a uh healthy balance. All right. Yeah, question number two. We've talked a little bit about this, but in 2025, maybe early 2026, what is the next place you'd like to travel to?

SPEAKER_01 32:48

Uh I've got quite a few destinations on my uh travel list. The the big one is probably the Maldives. I really want to go check out the Maldives and go to Dubai uh while I'm in that area. Um, but uh I'm a cruiser, so I'll be doing more cruises in between.

SPEAKER_03 33:08

Okay. That's what I'll say. Dubai and Maldives, like opposite end, I mean, yes, obviously in the same area compared to Texas, but yeah, yeah, it's totally different things going on.

SPEAKER_01 33:20

Yeah, yeah. It's uh it's a full you gotta plan that trip well and you know be there for a while because it's not something you're gonna just jet over and do.

SPEAKER_03 33:28

Yeah. Yeah, yeah. They gotta bring the Concorde back, maybe, but I don't think that's that too. That's not gonna land in the Maldives, I can tell you that. Yeah, I know. All right, cool. And uh again, question number three. We talked a little bit about this after Tex Mex and after Texas barbecue. What's the next best thing for you?

SPEAKER_01 33:48

Oh, food-wise. Um so I I'm totally obsessed right now with something called soup dumplings. They're it's an Asian dish where it's like a normal dumpling, except it's an entire soup inside of that. It's got the broth and everything. They are so delicious. I could just eat the heck out of those.

SPEAKER_03 34:10

Yeah, I love paying for that because it's something I I cannot make. I do have no inkling to want to learn. It sounds like way too much work. So yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 34:22

Absolutely delicious. One of my favorite foods right now. Uh is there a go-to place in the Dallas area for you? There is. It's called uh Kitchen Master. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 34:33

It's on uh Preston.

SPEAKER_01 34:34

It's on Preston. It's uh if you're not into that, the right behind it is the best barbecue place, Hutchins. Uh they're literally in the same parking lot. Oh, okay.

SPEAKER_03 34:45

Well, I mean, technically, soup dumplings is an appetizer. You go do both.

SPEAKER_01 34:50

There you go. Get the soup dumplings and then go have some crazy delicious barbecue. Yeah. Take a nap.

SPEAKER_03 34:59

Oh, perfect. Well, yeah, thanks again. I appreciate all your time and uh look forward to picking your brain on an upcoming episode.

SPEAKER_01 35:06

All right. This is always fun. I enjoy talking to you, and uh, I look forward to the call next time.
