In episode #042, we chat with VeeFriend, content creator, community detective, Dalton Tice. In our chat, Dalton and I talk about his origins into finding Gary Vee and the VeeFriends, his thoughts about bringing kindness to the world, and how the VeeFriends community fits the bill to do the same.

In episode #041 we chat with Author, Community Leader, Web3 Ambassador, and VeeFriends OG, Steve "NFTbark" Kaczynski. After leaving his corporate job and going "all in" on Web3, Steve landed a position co-hosting "Coffee with Captain," an awarding-winning daily Twitter Space and a position serving as the community lead for the Starbucks Odyssey program. Most recently, Steve co-authored a book, "The Everything Token," which demystifies NFTs and illustrates how they will transform our world. Steve and I chat about how he found Gary Vee, why the VeeFriends community is different, and what his experience was like speaking on the VeeCon community stage.

In episode #039, we chat with VeeFriends OG, and Co-Founder of "To The Moon Cards," Jason "IJayRob" Roberts. After its release in 2022, Jay was the first person to collect a full set of 235 Series 1 VeeFriends Zerocool cards. Jay is a loyal, generous, and active community member who is constantly educating the community on VeeFriends cards in the VeeFriends Discord and on his livestreams with To The Moon Cards.

For episode #038, I chat with JJ "Saugy" Saugstad, also known as "Saugy." After following Gary for years and feeling the positive impact of the flip life, Saugy stumbled into a Fanatics Live stream in October 2023. Not knowing a thing about VeeFriends, Saugy bought his first Series 2 box on Ebay on positive energy, intuition, and conviction in Gary. Roughly a month later, Saugy purchased a Series 1 box and pulled a 1/1 Bubble Gum Very, Very, Very, Very Lucky Black Cat card on a livestream in front of the community. It was the first time a spectacular card of the official VeeFriends logo was seen publicly and it sent shockwaves through the VeeFriends card community. Since then, Saugy has become an supportive pillar for many of the independent streamers within the community and a poster boy for how to the VeeFam supports each other. It was a pleasure jamming with Saugy and learning more about the 'legend of Saugy Waffles.'

For episode #37, I chat with the Head of Community for VeeFriends, the one and only Mr. Daniel Donayre. During our conversation, we chat about Daniel’s origin into crypto and VeeFriends, and how consuming Gary’s content brought him closer to his father. What it was like winning a GOO (GO) Gratitude Gorilla in the Discord, why he chose to apply for VeeFriends from the hospital after the birth of his first child in 2021. The California native also shares what the experience has been like leading all but 1 Hangout Hawks calls, and the special things he sees in the VeeFriends community as he sits at the top of it. Daniel spends so much time behind the scenes, it was so great to chat with him and give him a stage to share more about his story and so more of us can learn how great of a guy he is.

For episode #36, I chat with VeeFriends content creator, writer, AI enthusiast, and day one minter, Ezra Fuller. During our conversation, the BC/GG holder and I chat about how an unsuspecting co-worker jump started his journey into crypto, content creation, and the Garyverse, What it was like to achieve the ultimate goal of working for GaryVee after only a handful of years after seeing the mission, why he went all-in on VeeFriends, and what it takes to have success working under the Gary umbrella. We also jam on the state of the union of VeeFriends Instagram, why he told his high school class he was going to be rich and famous, and of course, White Claws.

In episode #035, I chat with brothers, VeeFriends, and business owners, Ben & Sam Harbuck (@ibenkind & @wh1skyjak.) Throughout our conversation we chat about being homeschooled, who got who into @GaryVee, which ultimately landed them both deep in the @VeeFriends community. We also chat about why they ended up creating @VeeFriendsCards content and the unique way they handled getting scammed in early 2023.

For episode 34, I chat with commercial real estate agent, content creator, and VeeFriend, Aviva Sonenreich. Throughout the course of our deep dive, the Gift Goat holder and I chat about her content creation journey and how she reached 1 million followers on TikTok. She also shares how Gary's content changed the course of her business and life, why she was so quick to jump into VeeFriends on Day 1, and why she has so much conviction in access tokens after they’re used. The newest podcast panther also shares a really cool story of how she was able to thoughtfully provide Gary value by getting an Academy Award nominated A-list actor on Gary’s podcast. It was super awesome meeting Aviva in real life recently and getting to know her. There’s a lot of great nuggets of inspiration here. Hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did.

For episode 33, I chat with one of the most recognizable people in the Veefriends community, the Brave Bison himself, Mr. Josh Courage. Josh is an OG holder of the Bison and this past year, he paved his way into becoming one of the pillars of the VeeFriends cards community by greenlighting his own Twitch stream he calls, the Courage Show. The stream which began as a place to highlight Veefriends community members and showcase all that you can do with Veefriends Cards quickly became a hub of the community. The full time dad and fitness coach and I get deep in this episode as we chat about the emotional needs of the youth and how we think VeeFriends could fill that void, why he chose the Bison, how impactful VeeFriends cards have been for the community, the VeeFit movement, and so much more.
