5:16
Yeah, that's so funny you say that.
5:18
Because I took a pop quiz on Twitter yesterday.
5:22
Somebody built it on Grok.
5:25
Because when I moved here from Poland, I just grew up on hip hop.

I took a quiz yesterday.

How did that happen? How has it been like working with Gary Vee? How has that whole thing played out?

I was like, "Are you sure I get that title?" Um, they're like, "Well, let's start with, like, social media something." Um, and so I joined the company and I worked there.
5:31
I was the first employee at Strideline and worked there for six years.
5:34
Um, and really got to, like, own marketing.
5:38
