The GaryVee Audio Experience

LOVED this panel I got to speak on with my good friend Bonin Bough and Michael Loeb. We speak on business operations and growth, ideas around parenting, and why I don't let anyone else tell me how to parent my kids, and hone in on the issues with the entrepreneurship boom today - there's lots of companies, but not a lot of them are making money. LOTS of good chat here, hope you love it <3

I absolutely loved getting to spend time in London and meet with a ton of my fans at the Crushing It! x K-Swiss Pop Up shop. I really hope that you guys can find some value in this episode, especially in the last conversation I had when leaving the Pop Up.

Super happy that I got to surprise a fan from Twitter! Calling fans in general is always a really good way to keep your community engaged and in-tune with whatever it is that you're doing. One of the main points that I really want to hit on again from this episode was the idea of working for free to build a reputation and credibility... If you don't have a degree or the experience that other people do have, you should be working for free for 5-10 clients and crush it for them so that you can build up a strong reputation moving forward.

Straight fire in this keynote I gave in Brisbane, Australia a few months ago - I really hone in on those who are squandering getting their business really up and going with social media, and focus on the importance of really focusing on what you're good at within that realm - if you're not great on camera, maybe you're great on audio. But the Q&A section is where the real fire comes out, there's a number of questions from the audience that involve things that I don't usually touch on. Hope u enjoy ;)

If you're unhappy, there's no excuses for sitting around and complaining that the world's not fair to you, or that you had a shitty upbringing or any other "excuses" that are preventing you from doing your thing. I'm empathetic to those issues from your past, but right now is the time to drop those and leave them where they were, and focus on what's in front of you. <3

Loved chopping it up with Reece Parkinson on BBC Radio 1Xtra last week diving deep into my thoughts around Will Smith's newly founded presence basketball and football/soccer and why I want to dominate that industry and Snapchat's new update and redesign. Really really really great content here - I focus real heavily on my happiness and why and how I don't let others' opinions about myself affect my own happiness and well being. <3

MASSIVE love to my friend and business mogul Danny Meyer, CEO of Union Square Hospitality Group which founded and runs many famous restaurants around New York and the country like Blue Smoke, Gramercy Tavern and Shake Shack. We take some calls from #firstinline and answer questions on hospitality, entrepreneurship, restaurant ownership and more. Total fire in this show.

This keynote focused around an audience of contractors was completely on fire when it came to the Q&A section. It kicks off with a massive focus on the fact that the internet and social media aren't ruining your life, they're not ruining our world-  they're exposing who we really are. I talk about the way I identify upcoming trends & nuances in the world, not necessarily always by trial and error. Some great topics & tactics in this keynote, hope you enjoy <3 

COMPLETE FIRE here on The Brink of Midnight Podcast. Great chatting about how my experiences being a D and F student with negative reinforcement in school shaped my entrepreneurial vision today - and why that was a huge driver in my life, and I tell a story about how overpaying for a baseball card table at age 13 was a major transformative moment in my life. There's a TON here that I think a lot haven't heard- would love if you listened <3

Complete fire on this episodes of the #podSessions. I had my man Gabe Anderson of VaynerBeta, Ultra athlete and author Rich Roll and Instagram hit / pro actress Arabella S Ruby on the show this week to chop it up about business, culture, social media, and a TON more. Great, great stuff on this show.

Listen up -  this is a MASSIVELY important topic that I touch on often. You have time. You're young. What the fuck are you in such a rush for? I see so many young people that are either just out of high school, in college, or just out of college that are spending so much time and energy evaluating their lives and seeing where they stand in comparison to the people around them; stop judging yourselves! Close your eyes until you're 29 and stop dwelling on the past. Be patient and be self-aware, but don't stress if you haven't "made it" while you're still in your 20s... You have so much time.

Hit me up on Twitter and let me know your thoughts. 

@Garyvee

As many of you probably saw, there was a huge shift and growth in Twitch's culture this week, and my predictions and thoughts are coming true that I've been saying for years ;) 

The internet changed everything... There are no more middlemen and you don't have to get the permission from some old white dude to do whatever it is that you need to do. Instead of coming up with dumb excuses as to why you can't.. look at all the reasons why you can. Hope u all enjoy this fireside chat I did at Baron Davis' Allstar weekend in LA. <3

This was a firey episode of #AskGaryVee with TV star, entrepreneur and all around badass Bethenny Frankel - Besides diving down into Bethenny's history and coming up story, we chat building the fastest growing alcohol brand, salad dressings, polo players and a TON more. Lots and lots and lots of laughs here :)

Hit up Bethenny and say hi: https://www.instagram.com/bethennyfrankel/

Loved loved loved being a guest on Dave Meltzer's podcast, The Playbook. We get straight into it, talking about my "inner workings" and more than just what I put out. I go into what I mean when I talk about how I have no expectations from others, so nobody can every let me down, and really expand on why I care more about my legacy than what I'm thought of this second - comparing to Christopher Columbus. This was an all-time interview, that I'd love if you took a listen to <3

Totally fired up about being a guest on Tom's show at Agent2021 recent - we chopped it up talking about much more than just real estate, diving into what it's like touching on big, big brands that are pushing to stay relevant in today's social world - and how those brands are doing it. Another big topic we touch on is figuring out what kind of content creation and distribution you're good at - you may hate being on video but be an excellent podcaster, which is why you should be going all - in on your strengths. Some really, really good stuff here that I think you'd love <3 

Check out the full video on Tom's channel right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P1iMfzuE6ZI

Straight fire out of this interview from my friends over at BiggerPockets, talking about emotion in losing and how that's changed for me over the years (and how it fires me up to push harder), why I recommend buying filters & frames geotargeted towards college campuses for hiring interns & employees and finding deals through social media. Great great interview here - hope u enjoy !!

This is an important topic that I don't think many people realize when they're unhappy at a job, especially right as you're stepped into a new role. If you're unhappy, don't just stay because of how you think it looks on paper. There's no sense in pushing through misery just to get another line in your resume - do what makes you happy. 

If you don't love what you're doing, change it. It's not all about the money & fame - but if you're spending every single day unhappy because you hate your job, then you need to start turning that around.

I gave this advice to one great kid on growing his personal brand and social media influence .. I just wanted most of you to hear it too...

This interview originally appeared on Cheddar's "The Point" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ey5nhBUNgko&=

I think you're all going to find the format of this interview that I did at Cheddar extremely interesting. Arianna Huffington and I chat with Cheddar founder Jon Steinberg on topics like work life balance, burnout, disconnecting from social media & technology and dive into how I was able to be held accountable for my fitness. Really interesting points of view here- hope u enjoy !!

Complete fire coming out of this keynote at Tampa Startup Week. I dive deep into the upcoming trend of entrepreneurship, and how my ambition with my message isn't necessarily to encourage every single person to go out there and start a business, but to go out there and do what you want to do. If you want to be a number 13 at a company you admire, it doesn't mean you need to build a company and be it's number 1 first, but if that's your ambition then that's great. Some serious Q&A in this one too - make sure you check it out. <3

Loved chopping it up with my man Premium Pete, about growing up in New York City, the massive change in parenting and how where you grow up influences who you are. We dive deep into how and why I wanted to be cool with so many people throughout school by kindness, driven by the desire to sell and also chat about balancing work & private live. This was an all-time interview, and I'd love if you'd check it out.

Hit up Premium Pete here:

Fiiiiiiire podcast incoming - chopping it up with these guys brought out some really important points that need to be brought out. The standards of school, parenting, success and business are changing and if you want to succeed, you've gotta get on board to realize what's going on. As everyone wants to become an entrepreneur, it's important to realize that not everybody's fit to be one - maybe you'd be great as a number 13, instead of a number 1 or 2. SO so so many good topics here- you've gotta check it out <3

This is EXACTLY how you can make money for free! This video will literally change your life. The only thing that stops people from winning is education and the work ethic. I will no longer pander to the "I don't have money" excuse that so many of you use. It's over. Here's why! <3

This compilation comes from the heart - many of your know my thoughts on the younger generation, and that my beliefs lie with the idea that technology isn't ruining our kids, it's enabling them to become who they are. This advice is aimed heavily at the millennials, the future business leaders of tomorrow, and I hope it can inspire a few of you to get fired up this Saturday.

Super happy that I got to sit down with Ralo and have a quick meeting on coming up in the rap game and creating opportunity for yourself. Was great expanding with him on why I put out my best content for free, at such a large scale - because I know that 90 percent of you aren't going to do anything about it.  ;)

If you're really trying to figure out how to go all in on your passion, this call-in #AskGaryVee is one you really, really can't miss. The two topics that the callers and I go heavily in-depth on are related to following a passion, but split off to whether you should be taking your parents opinion on your life, and how you need to think about taking a leap when there are kids involved. Deep, deep calls, and I'd really love if you'd hear them out <3 

Loved this quick chat before my big talk at Tampa Startup Week, defining and going into my personal brand, it's reasons and how it came to be. We also touch on selling what you believe in, and it such an important factor in successful entrepreneurship. 

This was a really cool clip from a pre-show event in Tampa where I talked to a group of young entrepreneurs about take the time to make sure that you're living by your own standards and not adhering to anyone else's idea of what your life should be. If you're chasing something solely because "society" wants you to, you have to stop and evaluate what you're doing to get to that place. Some really important lessons here that I think you should hear!

Loved being on Jen Lehner's podcast - she's someone who reached out to me after hearing me on James Altucher's podcast, and started up her own podcast which she talks about the benefits about. We go into the value of kindness, and emotion when you're building a business & living the life of an entrepreneur. There is nothing more Niche than being the human being. Your Niche is being you. Over the past few days I have been emphasizing on Kindness as I believe that this is the only reason why things are working out for me the way they are. Hope you enjoy <3

This rant is for everybody that's being held down by other people and not taking control of their own life and destiny. When is it enough? When do you finally realize that this is your life and that you need to take control? When do you draw the line and say "enough"?!

Positivity. It's one of the single most powerful tools that you have to overcome any negativity in your life. If you're spitting positivity and looking at that cup half full, you are in such a better place than those losers that are pushing you down, spitting negativity.

If you're in real estate, this live AskGaryVee I did with my man Ryan Serhant is one that you absolutely cannot miss. 

Super awesome to get the opportunity to sit down with Nik Stauskas for this meeting. For those of you that don't know, Nik is a basketball player in the NBA and was also on the fourth episode of #podSessions. I think that this meeting helps clarify my definitions of patience and eating dirt for any of you that have been a little confused about what I'm trying to get at...

Loved chopping it up with my man Jay Shetty, chatting about gratitude, empathy, self awareness and positivity and how the combination of all these things enable leverage in different scenarios. We dive in about how you need to learn to let things go, and not allow other peoples' negativity to push you down, even if someone's saying "you're ugly, you suck" on Instagram. The comments here are straight from the heart - hope you love it <3

There are a few key points that I really try to hit on during this Q&A session at iHop... I think that the college debt crisis is just around the corner, yet people that are already in debt are taking out loans to buy dumb shit to hide their insecurities. I really think that the NBA has a shot of going out of business as a result of players having all of the leverage and wanting to cut out the middleman. And lastly, once people realize how insane the opportunity is to work for someone like myself, like Mark Cuban, like Tim Ferriss, or like Jeff Bezos, people will actually pay to work for them because of what it does for their careers...

I really think that Tierra Whack has a solid shot of being a massive artist in this space. She has something that I don't see in many other artists, so I just think that this is going to really work out for her... Let me know what you guys thought the most insightful part of this meeting was! This meeting was easily one of the most powerful meetings I've had with a booming hip hop artist.

Check out Tierra Whack here: https://www.instagram.com/tierrawhack/ https://soundcloud.com/tierrawhack

If you're truly doing what you love, it won't feel like you're actually working... Even though I talk a lot about hard work and hustle, I still take some time off on the weekends to spend with my family, watch Jets games, and rest. Just because I put so much emphasis on working hard doesn't mean that I'm remotely trying to say that you shouldn't be sleeping or not resting... I'm trying to say that you should be using the time that you have while awake wisely and productively.

Guys, YouTube is a staple platform for my content as most of your know, and I think it's a super important place to be, as long as it's for YOU. If you're striving to be a vlogger, or other youtuber, the biggest thing to keep in mind is that you need to be constantly providing value and engaging your subscribers, making them want to come back, and you don't need any fancy equipment to get started- just your phone. Hope you enjoy these thoughts around YouTube & the community, let me know your thoughts !!

This meeting I had with Detroit Lions Linebacker Brandon Copeland showed off some great macro-focused points that I like to get across to athletes. We talk about leveraging the name of the brand that you play for to help get ahead in business, personal branding and any other entrepreneurial endeavors you may be chasing. Utilizing a brand that gives you leverage is a massive upside that once you start to realize how it works and how to use it, you'll win. <3

I was honored to be on my good friend Sara Deitschy's FIRST guest on her brand new podcast, The Creative Exchange, I've been following her for a while and it was a blast chatting with her, talking about personal branding, Crushing It! and the future of voice and marketing. This chat was an amazing one - would mean a lot if you hit me up and let me know your thoughts, and check out Sara's new channel!

#podSessions number 4 might be the best yet. These guests were completely on fire, and it was amazing chopping it up with each of them, focusing on their individual world. Flowing from music, to sports to health and beauty, the chat here was all-time.

Hanging out with the crew at Hot 97's Ebro In the Morning was a BLAST. Loved chopping it up with this talented crew, and chatting everything from how I decided to "document over create" as early as Wine Library, staying quiet and under the radar from 2011 to 2014, how some music icons got their start by working for free and why I'm not afraid of emerging technology "always on listening". This was a FIRE chat that you really, REALLY shouldn't miss. Hope you enjoy <3

Always a pleasure to be on my man Lewis Howes' podcast and show, the School of Greatness where we got down and chopped it up about the side of being an entrepreneur and businessman that most people don't see. We chat about insecurity, my greatest challenge since I started VaynerX, what it was like starting a family while growing a business and a ton more. Hope you all love this <3 

Check out Lewis' Podcast & Show Notes here: https://lewishowes.com/podcast/e-gary-vaynerchuk-insecurity-fame-crushing-business/

I was fired up for this opening keynote that I gave at VaynerExperience's first major event, Agent2021 geared at the emerging and changing digital platforms that we as marketers and strategists have to adapt to. A big point that I try and get across here, is that content marketing is still the key point that you should be focusing on- especially if you fall into either the Auto sales, insurance sales, real estate or travel demographics that this conference was focused around - legacy industries that must change to meet new platforms. Hope you all enjoy this one <3

If you're a big fan of my content, you know right off the bat that my views on college are mainly skewed towards life skills & personal skills, rather than actually gaining important knowledge, ESPECIALLY if you're working towards being an entrepreneur. Here, I'm joined by a few friends to help answer the really important question of "should I go to college", and what kinds of alternatives there are to attending higher education. There's some really good stuff in here if you're stuck in that spot - hope you enjoy <3 

Episode 3 of #podSessions is IN THE BOOKS! This was definitely an all time episode, featuring new and old friends actor Jerry Ferrara, fashionista Danielle Snyder & Instagram mastermind Liz Eswein. We chop it up about everything from typecasting, to the importance of jumping on the Alexa & voice movement (Jerry isn't as keep ;) ), to our thoughts and ideals behind the next generations' adoption of technology. You realllllly don't want to miss this episode ;)

Hope you all enjoy this chat with Justin, one of my Teamgaryvee guys where we chat about his ambitions and what he's looking for in the future. Starting a franchise business is a long and difficult path; it takes immense capital, time, and knowledge. My man Justin is going to have a long path in front of him, but you know what, I know that he's going to crush it as long as he puts in the time and work. <3 

This was a really cool interview to do, on a Facebook live based show at Agent2021- We focused insanely heavily on voice, audio and how it's the next generation of social interaction that's reducing friction for businesses and consumers at the same time. We go in-depth on not only the benefits of podcasting and podcast consumption, but also the idea behind my Monday to Monday playlist and close out chatting around being a role model for a new generation of entrepreneurs. Hope you enjoy this one ;)
