Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Oh, the capital of Shag. A cargo ship carrying Porsches, Lamborghinis, and Bentleys sinks into the Atlantic. Yep. Well, oh well. We're out. We're out of here. We'll see you later. There's so much competition now that if you don't have a brand or a presence or name recognition, it's just so much harder to compete. You can't just flip on the e-commerce store and things start selling. The hottest part of ending is starting again.
00:32
You're listening to the Radcast. If it's radical, we cover it. Here's your host, Ryan Alford. Hey guys, what's up? Welcome to the latest edition of the Radcast. It's Friday, March 4th, 2022. Our weekly marketing and advertising news. I'm joined by my co-host, Joseph Hamric. That's me. Hey, Ryan. Give you the full name there. I appreciate it. Your first name also. I know, we're both Joseph's. We are.
01:02
My mom just did me the curse of making my middle name my first name and having to tell every teacher for 18 years, no, I go by Ryan. Right. Anytime you get a name tag for anything, it says Joseph on it. Yeah. I'm like, yeah, come on. Every government, every call from like, you know, someone chased me down for a debt or something. That's good though. Didn't you know? Joseph. I don't know. There's no Joseph here. Yeah. That's good. Yeah. You know it though. Yeah. You can, that way you can weed out those calls and those. Exactly.
01:31
If you don't know me, then you don't really answer my phone unless I know who's calling. Yeah, I don't know. Straight to voice mail. It's got to have somebody's name on there, not numbers. Yeah. That's right. So how's the week been? Nick looks concerned. What do we got, Nick? Oh, no concern. Thumbs up. Oh, okay. We're good. Excuse me. It's good. How's the week been? Good. Good. We had a little COVID scare at the house. Oh. Thought my son might have had it.
01:58
Did not have it. That's good. Which was good. The bad part of that is I was supposed to go to an Atlanta United game and did not go.
02:09
I missed it. Got the, uh, got the, his final test results back just in time for it to be too late for me to leave. That sucks. Thanks a lot. Dr. whatever. Limongello. Zhivago. Yeah. Your car's on, your house is on fire. Your house is on fire. Yeah. Oh boy. Inside, jokes about Fletch Lives. Fletch Lives. How was your week? It's been a good week. It's been busy, uh, like always. And, you know, it's been a little bit of a blur.
02:38
Quite frankly, the, uh, we transitioned from basketball to soccer very quickly. Yep. We finished basketball season, had a playoff game Monday night, and then we've had soccer every night since. And so, uh, and we have two boys playing on a team together, which helps. That's nice. Hudson and Hogan. Sure. Playing on the 10, 11 Y team. And then, um, Nash is playing on the five year olds team with the Y as well.
03:06
Okay. And uh, Kane halter. Yeah. And he was there this week and he was about a foot taller than everybody on the team. Yep. And uh, had about twice as much coordination. I was like, I don't know what happened. He's a giant baby. That's my son's like that, but he's 13, but he's, he'll go out there and he's head and shoulders taller than everybody. And, uh, I don't want to say he's 10 times as coordinated. We're not going to say that. He is coordinating. But funny is
03:35
Nash was doing like drop kicks and these kids could barely kick it off the ground. And what Nash is learning, you know, like he's very coordinated and all that, but he's, it's not that he's timid, but it's almost like he's playing like, he thinks he's playing with younger kids. He doesn't want to hurt anybody. So he's like, he's kind of like being patient more than timid.
03:57
Right. Like, cause he thinks he's playing like with his younger cousin or something. Yeah. I'm like, dude, you need to just run over those kids. Yeah. He's probably at some point going to get frustrated with that. Yeah. Because kids are, he's going to pass the ball and they're not going to pass it back. He's going to be like, yeah, you've got, you've got some club soccer in your future. Probably you got some.
04:14
