So if you want to see this live from the full perspective, especially because we're about to unveil something that has never been seen before, please go to my youtube, my linkedin or my facebook, my twitter, every other channel, uh, everybody i'm going to give a couple more Minutes for this to populate but uh shortly, um there'll be a url down here and that will be a url that all of you should join the discord of candy the platform that the three of us work on. As many of you know, i'm a board member to that. These two gentlemen are in the day to day i'll. Let them introduce themselves in a second, but the reason i want you to join the candy discord is we've got about 48 hours before we take a snapshot of everybody who's in the candy discord and what we will be doing with those people is giving them first Access on the baseball project that candy is putting out, many of you have been focused on some of the baseball stadium stuff.

A lot of you were doing sweet futures, which is the college football stuff, but the big one. This is the big one, the baseball product, our core baseball nft - will be coming out shortly and right here live on my socials. We will be giving the first look to this incredible project that we're so excited about, and so that is the setup. Please start sharing the url once we get it in there uh.

Oh there, it is garyvee.com, candy and great. Last gary gary give me one. Second he'll be back there. He is i'm always back clicking just about start juggling.

I was gon na. Do some great, like i've, got some great improv stuff you could put. That was my click wrong error, uh, garyvee.com, candy nft! Please everybody who's here right now. Please share that url! I don't know if the gary and the g and the vr are they caps has to be cap sensitive, usually for that making.

I think the the candy nft part is case sensitive, but i don't think the garyvee part is, but nonetheless please please everybody click that in uh. Try it right now and if it works, and it sends you to the candy discord um, please start sharing it in all the chats on youtube: uh facebook, uh all that stuff. So anyway, um i'm excited to share this and please get into the candy nft um discord, because that is the secondary, most important part of what we're doing here, because we're taking a snapshot in 24 to 72 hours. I don't know the exact logistics, but who's ever in the discord is going to be part of this alpha, which is going to allow them to buy the baseball nfts, which, in my opinion, have enormous upside against the cost of the packs.

And now i will let matt and shane introduce themselves individually and we will get to the place. Hey thanks gary um yeah, the facts are gon na, be pretty awesome right like uh, it is case sensitive, all lower case. So it's all even the garyvee part. I'm sorry maddie all lowercase, all right, dustin you're doing that.

I see a lot of people go through it beautiful. I see scott and others, everybody who here who got there. Please share it in the comments. Matt.

Take it away yeah, i'm just gon na say: look these packs are gon na, be awesome right like we. Definitely we hint a bit to the past with uh collectibility um, rarity, structure um, but we also have super cool unlockables. The one of ones are going to have some experiences involved uh. You know october 26th, they these drop.

So in 20 days we are dropping this. Somebody just asked in the comments is the mlb involved. The mlb is uber involved. The mlb and the mlbpa has licensed to candy the rights.

These are the official official nfts correct, maddie yeah. The first drop is going to have two subsets, the one of which is going to be the all-stars. Everyone was an all-star team, the 81 all-stars of this year and then another subset, we're calling uncut diamonds, which will be the top prospect for each of the 30 teams which to me i'm super excited for that set shane. Who are you besides being stunningly attractive and trendy uh? You know gary.

Thank you. I've been trying to tell my wife the same thing for years, and so i'm gon na use that as a clip just as we go to bed tonight, gary v said that. So, let's keep that marriage going um. I head up creative um, so really looking at how we approach nfts uh, how we approach them in a meaningful way.

Um. I i mean i really see this space as an opportunity to not be creating these collectible digital assets, but more create these collectible digital experiences. My thing is that i i look for in the approach creatively, i'm looking for story to be told to the audience and that's any of our products that hero a hero or a fan we'll be able to deliver the story about that hero. But i'm also looking for that story that the consumer has, with our content the one that delights the one where you feel like you've discovered something the one that feels immersive.

That's really what i'm looking for, because that story that you tell your friends about a personal experience that you had with our product in some way, those are the foundations that we're starting to build for our content right now. So i head up the the thinking, the aesthetic, with an unbelievable team that makes me look good every single day. So a lot of people tuning in i know that i haven't gone, live on all my platforms and not. I know that all of you haven't seen all my information on nft's non-fungible tokens.

Maybe you've heard about be friends at this point. Maybe other projects like board api club or nba top shot, the biggest comp is probably to nba top shot. Given the licensing rights, the nba gave dapper labs an incredible company, the rights to the nba top shop. They made a highlight product.

What you're about to see is what we've done with mlb and i think without further ado. We should show it especially because i have a client meeting in a second, so this is just a breaking news scenario, so why don't we show the video? This is the first look to the candy baseball product that we are incredibly excited about, so love love. So i think you know what i love about this. Is you see how the product ends shane? What i think you did extremely well is it's dynamic, but then it ends as a card as a more static.

You know it's got the elements of the new age. Things that you can do differently than a card, but it ends like a card, but all the dynamic things are happening that lends itself into that incredible piece of fernando tatis. My thing is that i'm really looking at building narratives, that connect with an audience story is very important to me in terms of how we, how we um express these heroes, these um and really appease the fans through that narrative. I don't want to just give a cool picture that that's uh, fernando states, but i want to tell his story in a way that feels dynamic.

So i have context, and yes, it will come into a 3d card at the end and again we're also looking at tying dynamic stats with it. I want to build utility again immersive experiences. We have this road map we're in the infancy of this, and when we stop building out that road map, it's going to be something that i'm hoping is going to blow people's minds novo any uh parting shots before we definitely we're going to borrow from the past. As well right while we connect to the future, like you saw that right and that's that's what we're excited about we're collectors first, we want these to feel like collectibles, um, everybody uh one more time dustin.

I know there's been a lot of confusion with the url, but a lot of people have been sharing it. I just tweeted it there. It is for everybody who's watching, um uh. I think that um.

I i think that the assets are incredible. I think shane did it and the team did a remarkable job. I think the product launch is unbelievable. Wait till you see how affordable the pricing is, i'm going to say it loud and clear.

I'm really busy a lot of you been seeing. I haven't been talking about v friends for last 30 days i jumped in for this breaking news with my two teammates here on the candy side, for one reason, and one reason only they rightfully so wanted people to get a little preview of the content. I'm happy to do that, i'm here for a totally different reason. This url that you're looking at garyvee.com the nft, gets you into the candy discord the candy discord like every other nft project.

The discord is the central hub, but nobody knows and i'm not even sure, i'm supposed to be saying this. So no i apologize, but i know - and i'm telling my audience and obviously i know they'll get out - is we're going to take a snapshot of who's in the discord pretty quickly here you know i i i heard right right novo, like pretty quickly we're gon na. Take a snapshot and that will be the beta crew aka, the people that can buy these packs. I think that is gon na matter, because this is a very as big as my audience is.

This is 0.0001 of the world. Just got to see what it looks like, i think. A lot of you realized it looks remarkable. The pricing is ridiculous.

It's the all-stars of baseball and some rising stars and they're going to sell out very fast and there's going to be a secondary value. So if you're in the discord dustin, i don't know what you're doing by pulling it off, put it back up, because it's the only thing that matters, because it's the arbitrage, garyvee.com candy nft, get into the discord start talking to people. There's been people there collecting the sweet futures, which is our college football product. You should get some of those as well, but this baseball product is major league baseball and major league baseball players.

Association's official product from candy coming october. 20Th is what i heard from novo is that right, 26, the first day of the world series uh, i couldn't recommend you getting more excited about it, but first to even have access get into the discord snapshots coming. That will be the first crew and that will give you the opportunity and then you can decide you want to buy it or not. That's on you, but i've.

Given you, the at-bat pun, intended shane novo, appreciate you guys we'll talk soon, thanks for everybody tuning in to this breaking news, candy mlb product, you got the first look here, we'll see you soon cheers gary. Thank you so much. We really appreciate it. Happy too awesome cheers.
