00:09I've got you it's a first we're on a boat we have never had to take a boat to find
00:14a hero before
00:15don't lean too hard I want to be a boat guy but I've never been a boat guy here we
00:20go five hoes
00:22on a boat five hoes on a boat I've waited all summer to be a boat hoe we're on a
00:26boat
00:40ahoy matey we're here we're queer yeah sorry hero this week the unofficial mayor of the marina known
00:46around the war as Redbeard I'm Greg Glidear and people call me Redbeard Greg lives on a sailboat
00:52with his wife Aubrey and their daughter Rue that smells bomb I mean salty I don't
00:59really have much of a filter I don't know what kind of insult that is but it's good
01:06nice leave Andre I mean I'm gonna you up now but yeah and this is me my wife would probably
01:12say I
01:12talk a little too much which is fair yeah Greg's great he can talk about just about anything but
01:18some semblance of knowledge I think that's accurate the nicest kindest person that you
01:23won't really understand the first time that you meet him oh there was an edginess and it's toughness
01:29and yet there was a super kind soft a very helpful person under that
01:39how's that basil taste don't eat it he's turning 40 wait literally today
01:4840 means to me that I've earned the gray hairs I have in my beard now and maybe knowledge but
01:54I
01:54don't think I have that much knowledge maybe I should have more wisdom at 40 than I do but we
01:58all know adults who don't know anything so there's that I don't know where I would have thought I
02:02would have been at 40 probably bartending living in a boat definitely not this year also marks his
02:0810th anniversary with Aubrey wow they always dreamed of owning a home but in Washington DC that dream felt
02:14out of reach I'm a teacher so I was not making Washington money and Greg was bartending we were
02:21looking for something that was affordable then one day Aubrey had a wild idea what if they bought a
02:26sailboat to live on I wanted an adventure and we love the outside neither of them had any sailing
02:34experience but Greg immediately jumped on board you see what I did there we took a couple of sailing
02:40lessons and then we moved on to a boat which has been an adventure and slowly it became me working
02:46on boats
02:46they've been there ever since raising Rue the princess of the docks building a unique floating life on the water
02:52yeah that actually sounds magical for a kid
02:55I'm Cleopatra here now
02:58like kid it wasn't necessarily on my docket
03:04now I'm just a dad wanting to hang out with this kid
03:09I like my dad
03:11because he's funny
03:12this hat for me would be um I can speak with an English accent what's your voice for this hat
03:16howdy you
03:17she's lovely but can't take credit for that one
03:19he fixes boats
03:23over the years Greg has become the marina's go-to guy
03:26the first call when anything goes wrong on the docks
03:28Greg's got it handled
03:30I work on generators
03:32toilets
03:33plumbing
03:34water pumps
03:35water heaters
03:35engines
03:36outside leaks
03:37a little bit of everything
03:38he was a good addition when he arrived on the wharf
03:40he's there when you need him
03:42sometimes when you don't
03:44Greg's the guy who shows up for everyone else
03:47except lately himself
03:49the weekends he doesn't really get that reset
03:52because Greg never says no
03:55I've neglected our boat slightly while I've been working on everybody else's boats
03:59our boat works fine from a functionality standpoint
04:02but my wife likes to say a cobbler's kids wear the worst shoes
04:06I haven't had much time to myself lately
04:08he's got big dreams of owning his own business
04:10but he just hasn't gotten around to it yet
04:12despite having everything he needs to make it happen
04:14and the years just keep passing by
04:15I'm trying to start an LLC for my business called Redbeard Maritime Maintenance
04:19I would like to maybe be more contributory to planning our future
04:23but I really haven't been focusing on it
04:25because of time and paperwork
04:27I think he definitely has an ambition to
04:30grow what he's building
04:32but he's just not doing a lot of what needs to be done
04:36Bay leaves the launch huh?
04:38that was a good movie
04:39and it was on a boat
04:40him turning 40 to me
04:42is a projection on our future
04:45what are the next 40 years going to be like
04:48if he's still stuck?
04:50I think it's time for him to
04:51know that he can do a little bit more than just good enough
04:54midlife crisis
04:55there you have it
04:56at the end of the week

05:51but yeah come on for the nickel tour
05:52come aboard
05:53it's not as big of a boat as I was expecting
05:57I don't know why I was expecting like mini-yacht situation
06:01give us the grand tour
06:02this is the cockpit
06:03I love gate stuff
06:04I enter this forward
06:05most people you should go backwards like a ladder
06:08I do not have sea legs
06:09no
06:10from the outside I was like where do y'all live
06:12well let's let everyone in here
06:13and then you walk downstairs
06:15and I still don't understand how three people live in this boat
06:18this is okay
06:20this boat is giving me opportunity
06:23you think we're gonna get everyone in
06:25there's a lot going on
06:26we're all about personal space in our boat
06:28yet you don't get any
06:30it is crowded
06:31there is things in every corner on every wall
06:35oh god
06:35thank you
06:36it doesn't need a full on deep plane facelift
06:39this boat needs a Lindsay Lohan glow up
06:42not a Kris Jenner glow up
06:43you know what I'm saying
06:44it just needs a little
06:46let's give them a full tour
06:47okay guys
06:47so right now you're in both the salon and the galley
06:50and the foyer
06:51and the foyer
06:52and the foyer
06:52the kitchen's amazing
06:53slay
06:53how's it working for you?
06:55not great
06:56so this is my room
06:57my room's a little bit of a mess
06:59what was that?
07:00two bedroom?
07:01wow
07:01two bed, two bed
07:02too bad
07:03what do you guys do in this room when you're together as a family?
07:07sometimes we sit on the couch and just watch stuff
07:11there's a projector screen and we project movies from
07:13oh come on that's so romantic
07:15have you done a lot of work on the boat?
07:17I have actually but it's all been necessity based work
07:19like nothing that's like
07:20nothing cosmetic
07:21but it could use a little bit of beautification
07:23do you want change?
07:25I would love if it looked a little bit cleaner
07:28like a refresh
07:29yeah
07:29but what fixing do we need to do for you?
07:32yeah
07:32forget the boat
07:32maybe we're asking the wrong person
07:34why are we here?
07:35what the real real?
07:36I think it's time for a moment for Greg
07:40I think he's fixed everybody else's boats
07:42and there just hasn't been any time to really look in the mirror
07:44and say I need a little beard trim
07:46I'd love a nice good push for him to get to where he can feel great about himself
07:52a reset
07:53and he's been fixing everyone's boats
07:55so I think he should get a break
07:57yeah we gotta fix his boat
07:59this is nav desk
08:00breaker 9-4
08:02check
08:02so this is technically the master cabin
08:04these are brand new matches we just have made for Aubrey and I
08:06they're technically queen size but they're in weird angles
08:08over and out captain
08:09and then this is where Rue's makeup is as well
08:11oh she's already into the makeup
08:13yeah yeah
08:14much to my dismay
08:15just wait
08:16the toys are gonna go away
08:17yeah
08:18that's the most devastating part
08:20talk to me about this boat
08:22have you ever like dreamt up like what you thought it would feel like
08:25it's like a little cabin right?
08:26I like that kind of feel about it
08:28but like also I've been saying I'm gonna finish the trim on this
08:30yeah
08:31for 10 years
08:32and also these cabinets go back to this corner
08:35and this is a void of unusable space
08:37on the floor
08:37turns out bamboo is not great for water
08:39it's not good
08:40it's aged though obviously
08:41same
08:42with the state of this boat you look around and I think all he sees are the things he wants
08:46to fix
08:47for me it means that we're dealing with somebody that may be a little stuck
08:51this week I'm gonna make it beautiful
08:53I'm gonna help them make it a little bit more functional
08:55make it work a little bit better for their family
08:58it's my first boat Greg
09:00we're looking on the bright side
09:01if anything were to happen that would go totally left field
09:03I'm the person to call to fix it anyways
09:05oh perfect
09:07as you can see we have a couple tiny peppers over there
09:11yep
09:12doing a piece of basil
09:13okay
09:14smell it to make sure it's basil right?
09:16yeah that's basil
09:17mmmm
09:18this is the whole closet
09:20what's going on over here?
09:23this boat's gorgeous but it's tiny
09:24if I were to live on this houseboat I would probably not wear as many heels
09:29I would probably do more flats
09:31more tennis shoes
09:33sandals
09:33not heels
09:35not platforms
09:35come on keep coming
09:36you got it
09:37come come
09:38come come
09:40yes girl squat
09:41ow
09:42you got this
09:43might hit my head a little bit
09:45ooh
09:46I see only functionality
09:48I don't see space for relaxation
09:49and organization
09:50oh my
09:52he's not afraid of color
09:54or koalas
09:55that doesn't surprise me that we've got this
09:57I mean I
09:58I do hate it
09:59but I'm not surprised he's got it
10:00oh
10:01ooh
10:02la
10:04yes detail
10:04okay I really wanted to talk to him about that
10:06do you like cilantro?
10:08yeah
10:08some people don't
10:09it tastes like soap for some of them
10:10isn't that sad?
10:11why?
10:11I know it's like a genetic thing
10:13you'll learn about that at some point in school
10:15cilantro is bad
10:15can I film down?
10:17yeah come on then
10:17gosh
10:18you know
10:18some bits more tasteful than others
10:20most of your clothes are tees and cargo pants it seems
10:24yeah
10:25that's your uniform for the job
10:26yeah
10:27so it's me gonna get dirty
10:28I'm working on plumbing
10:29I'm working on fiberglassing
10:31okay can we talk about these?
10:32we can talk about this yes
10:33where are you wearing him?
10:35but I wear this to just go play pool
10:36this is your going out top
10:38no this is just another layer in the winter
10:40but it's your going out top
10:42well to be honest
10:43this shirt was from a Halloween costume I got
10:45and you liked the style so much even though it was a Halloween costume
10:49that you then got it in every colour you could find
10:51just because you live on a boat
10:53I don't think you need to dress like a pirate
10:55I live in a Tudor home
10:57that doesn't mean I'm wearing period costumes around the house
11:00well okay maybe once
11:04you're gonna start your business right?
11:06but to get the business every now and then you'll need to look presentable
11:09why don't we really care what people think?
11:10he wants to own his own business
11:13the way you present yourself to the world
11:14can really impact how you then move forward
11:17a different outfit will encourage him to do that next thing that he wants to do
11:21and it just takes one step at a time
11:27do you want an ice cold drink?
11:29what?
11:30cheers
11:31cheers
11:31yes
11:32ten years together
11:33that's a beautiful thing
11:34he's such a great energy
11:36great person
11:37he just is truly authentically himself
11:39yeah
11:40what do you want for the next ten?
11:42oh
11:42I would love
11:43um
11:44more
11:45you know
11:46time together
11:47there's a lot of room for him to
11:48set boundaries and create space for himself
11:50and um
11:51and make some plans for him
11:53the plans
11:54what kind of plans does he need to make?
11:56um
11:56making plans for our daughter's future
11:58making plans for our own future
11:59maybe build his own business
12:01how long has he been trying to do that?
12:02I mean he's been talking about stuff like that for years
12:05and in order to do that you have to get certain licenses
12:08a captain's license
12:09and he has logged the hours
12:11he just hasn't gone through the paperwork and the steps to finish
12:14so those you know
12:16and if you bring it up
12:17he
12:18he
12:18the excuses will come out
12:20I think it's a procrastination thing maybe
12:22I don't know
12:23that's why I want you here
12:24Greg is 40
12:25which means it is time to start taking life a little bit more seriously
12:28and start really planning for your future
12:30I like this life
12:31I could do this
12:32I don't like boats
12:33but I could do this
12:34like I can do this all day long
12:36so the kitchen is pretty fascinating
12:39you have more spices than most people out there
12:42we like to cook
12:42a lot of tempeh
12:43a lot of tofu
12:44okay

12:45lots of coconut milk
12:46quinoas
12:47yep
12:48we're fully vegan
12:48why veganism?
12:49three different people on both sides of our family
12:51all got diagnosed with cancer
12:52so we decided
12:53you know what
12:53there's enough studies linked to connections between the two
12:56that we can just cut it out anyways
12:57you do most of the cooking
12:58or is it something that's like a full family affair?
13:00it's 50-50 when we're both here
13:02I've just got to the point now
13:03where I don't like to buy stuff that I can cook better
13:05yeah
13:06I've got my five blend Chinese stuff
13:07or if I'm gonna like make a remoulin
13:10I don't have to teach him how to chop an onion
13:12that gives me more of an opportunity to actually get to know him better
13:15okay
13:16this is the outdoor shower
13:17quite romantic
13:18yeah

14:14alright well we can experiment
14:15in like a non-creepy way
14:16it's going to be great
14:18I want to show Greg that he doesn't have to choose
14:20between showing up for himself
14:21and showing up for others
14:23he can do both
14:24going past 40 with self care and style honey

15:16Rue
15:17yes
15:17I love Rue
15:18also he's turning 40
15:20yeah
15:21it's a scary one
15:22it's a good one
15:24he feels lost
15:26I think that he just needs a bit of a kick up the backside
15:29when you are in your middle age and you become complacent
15:32it's really hard to pull yourself out of it
15:34there's still things that he can achieve
15:35he doesn't have to settle for what he's doing right now
15:38I really am excited to help him with clothes
15:40he wants to start a business
15:42and so I think I want to change up how he presents himself to the world
15:45and I think he might get there
15:46I'm very excited for you and super nervous for me
15:49tell me about you
15:50it's our first boat
15:51it's our first boat
15:52and boats are really tricky because everything has to be custom done
15:55and the weight as well
15:57can't do marble can't do granite can't do any type of natural
15:59because they'll sink it
16:00yeah
16:00I just want it to feel warm
16:03you know and like home
16:05a little toast to Greg and his family
16:07yeah
16:07and little baby Rue
16:08and I love Rue
16:09I love Rue

16:49ooh is that chili crunch?
16:51maybe
16:53maybe it is
16:54he likes to cook
16:55so this is one of those moments where I'm just using
16:57cooking with Greg as an excuse to understand why he is the way he is
17:02and there's nothing more exciting than when you see somebody who leads an unconventional life
17:08it just makes me so curious
17:10what a guy
17:12so
17:12you mentioned kind of like a plant-based diet
17:14I have this like sick obsession with this dressing that I've been making on repeat
17:19it's an amazing blanket recipe that you can pair with a lot of different things
17:22but I also wanted to make sure that we get our protein as well
17:24so I thought we're gonna make some nice little marinated tofu steaks
17:27and do like a bowl situation
17:29given the fact that Greg and Aubrey are dedicated vegans
17:33I definitely have to do something that's complex enough
17:36so that I can get them as repertoire to the next level
17:38and this thing is basically how you raw dog all your vegetables
17:43first things first
17:44tofu
17:45it's all about sauces and marinades
17:47so we're gonna start out with our marinade soy sauce
17:49mostly because I'm Canadian
17:51maple syrup
17:52maple syrup
17:52you can easily use honey
17:54if agave is your thing
17:55I'm not a big fan of it
17:56yeah
17:56only tequila
17:57okay there you go
17:58classic old white vinegar
18:00sesame oil
18:01chili garlic sauce
18:02a little bit of hoisin
18:04and then we can whisk this up
18:06ooh lefty
18:07I am a lefty
18:08born and raised
18:09and then you can just add some water in there
18:10two become one
18:11Spice Girls reference
18:13we dump this into the bowl
18:15so I got firm tofu
18:16is this extra firm or super firm?
18:18this is an extra firm
18:19slice down to create two perfect steaks
18:23and then what we're gonna do is kind of score a little less than an inch
18:26looking for those good unnatural grill marks we're about to put on this thing?
18:30exactly
18:30put those in nice and gently
18:32scored side up
18:33scored side up
18:35there you go
18:36we put them in the oven
18:37somewhere between like 10 and 15 minutes
18:39I'm gonna monitor it
18:39we just want it to basically brown
18:42and now we leave it
18:44there you go
18:44so this dressing has a whole bunch of vegetables
18:47perfect
18:48we have ginger
18:49turmeric
18:50carrot
18:50you want to do the onion?
18:52yeah
18:52nice dice
18:53being a manager of restaurant
18:56this is my cooking lessons I got from my old chefs
18:58you know exactly what you're doing
19:00nah I won't know about that
19:01my little hack for ginger and turmeric
19:03a spoon is your best friend for this
19:06because it's easy to kind of get into those little grooves
19:08cool
19:09can I just make this into like a fucking pesto or something like that or
19:13sorry
19:14Greg has desensitized this four letter word for me
19:18truly
19:18no I don't give a
19:19he literally swears like a sailor
19:22people look at me like I'm a cross-eyed water snake
19:24wow
19:25very specific comparison
19:28yeah
19:29maybe you can peel one more carrot
19:31I don't ever peel carrots
19:32I will eat the dirt right off them
19:33I'm a weird hippie
19:34you literally live on a boat
19:36you are a weirdo in the most beautiful way possible
19:38you know
19:39yeah
19:39so you've really like adopted this life on a boat
19:42I mean I like it
19:43we're committed
19:43I like living on a boat
19:45sleeping on a boat is the best thing in the world
19:48there's that and then also like
19:49I went from being a manager of a bar to a nurse for a while
19:52I was doing IT when I was doing that
19:54so I like doing lots of stuff
19:56but fixing things
19:57it's tangible and it's right there
19:59I got my hands on something I can be like I fixed this pump
20:01right
20:02and I make my own hours
20:03I was at a bar till 4 in the morning every day
20:06it doesn't work well when you got a kid
20:08and you want to be as involved as I want to be
20:10right
20:10and you guys are clearly involved in Ru's life
20:13you've created a beautiful life for yourself
20:15thank you
20:16appreciate that
20:17like you feel it when you walk in
20:19well I mean apparently
20:20I need to have goals for myself
20:22how about that
20:24people thought I was lacking in that category
20:26who are the other people?
20:28apparently my wife
20:28okay
20:29well do you think you are?
20:31yeah
20:32I'm trying to start my own business
20:33I have to get my shit together
20:35are you focusing too much on other people?
20:38apparently that's what's going on
20:39that's what I'm told
20:40I think goal oriented behavior is definitely a good idea
20:44for me
20:45I'm empowered to actually be able to make a change
20:47understood
20:48yeah yeah
20:48the change here isn't trying to encourage him to not live on a boat
20:52he's created a beautiful existence for himself and his family
20:55we have lemons
20:56any type of like acid or citrus goes
20:58yep
20:59but there is something to be said about introspection in life
21:02unseasoned rice vinegar
21:03alright
21:05it's still important to kind of look ahead a little
21:07and just consider planning
21:09even if it doesn't work out

22:50she's not land broken
22:52and may she never be
23:00shall we?
23:01yeah
23:04most of your life is spent in cargoes and a t-shirt
23:09mhm
23:09right now you are working for another company doing mechanic work on boats
23:14but you might be interested in doing your own thing
23:16why have you not done that up to this point?
23:19paperwork and time essentially?
23:20it's just paperwork and there's gotta be time at some point
23:23what are you doing in your free time?
23:25probably a beach chair with a drink in my hand
23:27okay
23:27playing billiards
23:28yeah
23:30boat work
23:31even in your free time?
23:32yeah
23:32so I was a business owner
23:34for the first two and a half
23:35almost three years of my business
23:36I worked as a receptionist
23:38and ran my own business
23:39I still made time
23:41to work on every bit of paperwork
23:43to get my business off the ground
23:45so
23:45I'm not trying to call you out
23:46but
23:47you call me out
23:47just a little
23:49I'm not trying to
23:49could you forfeit one of those nights of drinking
23:52and focus on your paperwork?
23:53I mean if you want to look at it from that direction
23:54yeah
23:55you're a bit of a procrastinator
23:57do you agree or no?
23:59I agree
23:59I do procrastinate on certain things
24:01I then I also have things that prioritize right?
24:04when I had my businesses
24:05I was working towards
24:08making myself redundant
24:09you graft real hard for a short period of time
24:13but then you don't have to work as much as you're working
24:15because then you're in a position to hire other people
24:17do you see that as a future?
24:19yeah
24:20I want to get you ready
24:22for the time when you do start to lean into
24:25getting your own business off the ground
24:27I'm assuming that you will need to take some meetings
24:30and look presentable
24:31yeah
24:32I'm not saying you don't look presentable right now
24:33but you look very casual
24:34did Aubrey tell you I'm not
24:35I'm anti-collar?
24:37anti-collar?
24:37like collar?
24:38sure collar, yeah I hate sure collars
24:39tell me about it
24:40because it's uncomfortable
24:41I think to a certain point
24:42what's the f***ing point of it?
24:44I almost did wear a collared shirt today
24:46okay
24:46I thought my wife thinks this looks nice
24:48not because I think it looks nice
24:50I f***ing hate that shirt
24:50does she make an effort when you go out?
24:52yes but she's just comfortable
24:53I love comfortable clothing
24:55so let's also look at options for like date night
24:58okay
24:58there are versions of collared shirts
25:00that aren't like stuffy
25:03I hate collared shirts man
25:04can I try and convince you otherwise?
25:06I mean you're welcome to yeah
25:07let's say for example
25:09this isn't a typical blazer
25:10it's a work shirt
25:11but
25:13it's
25:13also
25:14a suit
25:15have you seen anything like this before?
25:17old Japanese work shirts?
25:18yeah
25:18I just
25:19think of that and see pajamas
25:22can I show you how it's not that?
25:24I will, yeah sure
25:25outside of his uniform
25:27he's a playful guy
25:28let's see
25:29maybe you will think it does look like one
25:31but let's get you in it and we'll see
25:32but
25:33he's now 40
25:34I want him to just
25:35step it up just a little bit
25:37I really want him to be in loose linens and flowy pants
25:41just slightly more tailored pieces
25:43in a way that feels appropriate for his nautical life
25:47I might actually like your hat with it
25:50I'm not mad at the hat at all
25:52I like that you've got an accessory
25:54tell me what you think
25:54well collared shirts obviously right?
25:56cause
25:57collared shirts man
25:58but
25:58I look like
25:59a retired Russian mobster's bodyguard in Miami
26:03but
26:03it's comfortable
26:04okay
26:05I mean
26:06I can't see
26:07where I would wear this
26:08in what setting
26:09to a meeting?
26:10sure
26:11it seems super formal still to me
26:13for some reason
26:14wow
26:14are you anti-establishment?
26:17oh man yeah
26:18I agree with Rage Against the Machine 100%
26:20I don't even know what that means
26:21Rage Against the Machine's a band
26:22oh oh okay
26:23I can tell
26:25you don't like to be told what to do
26:26yeah it's not really my thing
26:27but I do wonder if the pushback on clothes
26:31is that you don't like the establishment
26:33that's fair
26:34the reason I started my business
26:35is because no one got to tell me what to do anymore
26:38like you could get there
26:39you could be completely anti-establishment
26:41and you could have no one telling you what to do
26:43because you're your own boss entirely
26:46hopefully what you learned from us this week
26:49is that you have an option to live the life that you want to live
26:52you have an opportunity to get there
26:54it's just taking the next step to make sure you get there
26:58like what is it?
26:59what's your loftiest dream?
27:00I mean one day is to retire when I'm 50
27:03I'm trying to be a trophy husband
27:04is what I'm trying to do
27:05that's not long away
27:06that's 10 years
27:07yeah
27:08having your own business gets you there
27:10gets you to retirement
27:11I think so to a certain degree
27:12yeah
27:13okay
27:13the way you present yourself to the world
27:15helps you achieve success
27:16it does
27:17because if you make yourself an effort in your parents
27:19you might make an effort on my job
27:21on my boat
27:22yeah
27:22so let's try and get you there
27:26go ahead
27:27I'm with it
27:27thank you
27:28yep
27:33well well well
27:36I would like to just bring that up slightly
27:39right
27:40give me your thoughts please
27:42this is kind of what I wore in my wedding
27:43these pants are awesome
27:45great
27:45I think
27:46going forward
27:47this could work
27:48for life
27:49outside of just the maintenance part of your job
27:52date night
27:53hang out
27:54to a meeting
27:55waist down I'm happy

27:59um
28:00get on this
28:01let's get you going
28:09with a boat
28:10with a boat
28:11so much of what you do
28:12and how you improve it
28:13is highly specialized
28:15and all custom work
28:17and the truth is
28:17we don't have the ability
28:18or the time to do custom work
28:20and Greg needs help finishing what he started
28:24I can't do as much as I would like
28:26especially structurally
28:27so I'm really grateful
28:28Allied Bank are coming through
28:30for Greg and his family
28:31this is about helping them with their future
28:33giving them the flexibility to decide
28:35what they want to do
28:36how they want to do it
28:37and when they want to do it
28:51have you ever been out here?
28:53no
28:53but I do like an astronomy tower
28:54it's pretty
28:55it's very pretty
28:57Greg's life needs direction
28:58when someone is procrastinating
29:00something deeper is going on
29:01it's time that Greg figures out
29:03what's been blocking him
29:04from focusing on himself
29:05and his goals
29:06there's so much more
29:07that you deserve
29:08I know it's just your birthday

33:00like if there's no other barber
33:01in like a 50 mile radius
33:02I can't do that much with Greg

44:03the most thing I love about this boat is probably my room
44:07my room has so much space
44:09we all have this preconceived idea that you've got to buy a house you've got to do this you've got
44:14to have a mortgage

45:06our greg
45:07our greg
45:09chips ahoy
45:12the fact that I've gotten to do this for ten years gives me so much pride
45:19every one of us knows somebody that needs love, support, kindness, community
45:24there are opportunities to do what we do everywhere you look
45:30it's so easy to take someone at face value
45:34we're so much more than that
45:36ask that question
45:37who are you?
45:39how can I help?
45:40how can I help make your life better?
45:42the only way we all move forward is by seeing each other's humanity and caring
45:52I really hope that if you take nothing else away, no French talk, no coordination, no pattern, no print
46:00I hope that the one thing you take away is kindness for people around you
46:06really understanding that the world is so much greater than ourselves
46:34who is so much greater than ourselves
