Hello and welcome to the CarGuy Coffee Podcast.

This brew has been brought to you by Certified Solutionaries.

And if you want to consume more brews or want more information

about how to build your brand on our podcast

and want to see how you can sponsor the brew,

go to CarGuyCoffee.com.

Let's brew!

What's going on, CarGuy's and CarGuy's.

It's Lou Ramirez, the CarGuy.

And it's Fred Linnard, subprime hero.

And we are excited to be brewing solutions

on the CarGuy Coffee Podcast.

We are pumped up to really get things moving

in the right direction, to maybe add a little amplification

to what's happening inside of the industry

and soon to come.

And we are pumped up to be able to brew solutions

with another great solution that's

making things happen in the industry

and setting the stage for an awesome event

to happen in lovely Ohio.

Fred, what is popping with you today?

I'm excited to be out here.

We're a fun day of training with all these solutionaries.

Man, I was just right before the show,

I was showing all the different hats I wore today,

just between all the different amazing auto groups

and dealer partners that we have that are solutionaries

that are currently rising up across the nation,

literally across this nation.

And we're super blessed.

We get to meet a lot of great people on our journey.

We've been able to go to a lot of great places

and connect with some really great people.

I know today we're going to talk about a place

that we actually are not going to be at,

but man, we wish we could be.

We'll be there next year.

But we know that there's going to be

a lot of great people mastermining

and talking about the future of automotive

and how to get there faster

and how to get there better and most importantly together.

And I love that.

But it all starts with this guy.

This guy actually got a chance to interview us

a couple of weeks ago, which was really cool.

We sat down with him.

He's a great host when it comes to interviewing.

Great questions.

I felt right at ease.

We just went right through it.

It felt like that time went this,

is how fast that interview went.

So we're super excited to have him on the show

to not just talk about him,

talk about what's going on over at Reynolds and Reynolds.

And of course what's happening at a place

that's going to explode with energy soon

and be amplified with fun, right?

So I can't wait to talk about that.

We're going to get that going.

But bro, I'm pumped, man.

It's been a great weekend.

I'm ready to go to this week.

We're going to fly out just in a few hours.

We're going to be going to the beautiful state of Arizona

to go visit one of our dealer partners.

Man, honored, excited.

All the above's, so.

Yeah, I'm pumped up about it.

It's about to be hot out there, 110 degrees.

I'm excited to go out there

and enjoy all of that dry heat

that they talk about out there

inside of the Arizona area, but we are.

We're pumped up to go visit

some awesome people that we love seeing developed.

There's something that you need to see developed

or you want to stretch your team to go to the next level.

Make sure that you do reach out to us.

We are certified solutionaries

and we do dealership development all over the country.

And we definitely want to make sure

that you do take the steps to go to the next level

and empower your people to go to the next level.

Because at the end of the day,

our microphone, our tools, our techniques

are all designed to amplify each other.

But speaking of amplify,

we are lending a microphone today

to be able to put out a little bit of buzz

and get a little caffeination stirred up out there

about what is brewing with the awesome people

over at Reynolds and Reynolds

and we're pumped up to bring in an awesome interviewer.

I'm just saying, I was pretty impressed

by the way that he interviewed.

And we all know that I'm definitely not easy to impress,

but he is an incredible interviewer.

And we would have to say

that we've now found another person

where we have found and can say

on this quest to brew with the best,

we found somebody else that has uptick

the quality of CarGuy coffee.

And we're so thankful that he's in the cafe today,

brewing with you, with me,

but we got to get some more people inside of this show.

We got to get more people inside of this flow.

So do us a favor everybody and tag a CarGuy.

Tag a CarGuy and share, share, share, share, share, share.

Get the word out there.

Get people in here and let them know

that we are about to amplify things

and get things moving and grooving.

And we're going to welcome for the first time

on the CarGuy Coffee Podcast,

the one.

Tell me.

Greg.

You.

Greg.

Welcome to the party.

Man fellas, I got to get you to follow me around

everywhere I go so that you can intro me.

If I can get you on the ball diamond

or walking into the cafeteria

or going onto a stage somewhere,

like that would be ideal.

I love the intro.

Thank you so much.

We appreciate it.

We've heard that a time or two,

which you would probably definitely love us to do.

We'll just record it for you one time

and just play that as soon as you walk in the door at home.

Right?

Now ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages,

welcome home, daddy, right?

Or whatever it is because you want to welcome home.

We just get people pumped up.

But no, this show has always been about

just highlighting the awesome people

inside of the industry.

We are so thankful to be able to groove

with awesome people and also highlight

some of the great things that are going on

in the industry.

That this is definitely an industry

where we put our head down and we get to work.

That's one thing I do love about this industry

is we get to work, we do things.

But so seldom do the hard workers that are out there

get the chance to jump on a microphone,

be gassed up a little bit about how great they are

and the great things that they're doing.

But also when there's something special

that's going on,

we want to give a little attention to it.

But Greg, you are brewing some cool things.

We had the chance to watch some of the interviews

that you put out there.

Haven't seen ours ever.

I'm excited to see when it goes out there, everybody,

because it was a great interview.

It was really fun.

And again, he is a master interviewer

and it was great for us to be able to be on that show.

Thank you again for having us on there.

But welcome to the Car Guy Cafe.

We're so thankful to have you out here.

No, it's great to be here

and thank you for joining me.

It's funny because you can come across

as a good interviewer when you have good guests

and you guys bring the energy,

you got good stories.

Even right now, right?

Just the interviews so high,

you're coming right off of a training session

where some might be like,

I just need a minute.

You got to decompress, come down a notch,

and you're, nope, let's roll into the next thing.

Let's go.

I love the energy.

It makes the conversation a lot more fun, a lot easier.

That's what Car Guy Coffee is all about.

We are here to brew solutions,

not percolate problems and have a good time.

A coffee, a cup of coffee and a conversation

is what it's about.

And we're gonna get that going

and we're gonna talk about some really great stuff today

and it's all gonna start with you, brother.

Honored to have you on the cafe,

in the cafe with us to talk about all things

that are happening inside Greg's life.

So I want to just start with,

tell everybody a little bit more about you.

What drives you?

What's your purpose?

Professionally, I've been with Reynolds and Reynolds

for a little over 17 years.

And when you do the math on that,

I was told by multiple people

that joining a company that serves car dealerships

exclusively in May of 2008

might not have been the best career decision ever.

But let's give me a front row seat to see

just how fun of an industry this is,

how powerful car dealerships are,

how resilient they are,

as an industry,

it's just so fun to be a part of,

get to be a piece of this industry

because it just always goes forward,

always raises the bar.

So for me, I come to work every day

and I think this is for all of us at Reynolds,

but for me, I come to work every day

to try to help dealers be as successful as possible.

Those auto retailers are the center of the hub

when it comes to the automotive industry.

They're the touch point with the consumer,

they're the retailer, they're making the magic happen.

I want to and we collectively want to help dealers

be as successful as absolutely possible,

whatever their definition of success is.

To me, that's really at the core.

I love that.

What made you, I gotta ask,

what made you in May of 2008 make the,

and what'd you do before, I guess a quick little,

what'd you do before,

and what made you come to Reynolds?

Yeah, so I actually had a wholesale parts business.

So I was a parts wholesaler,

did that for quite a few years.

And when you're in the delivery business

and gas price is triple,

you start to take a step back and go,

man, okay, I got to either figure this out quick

or I got to find something else.

And it was one of the two,

so maybe a way to Reynolds

and it's been a fun ride ever since.

Heck yeah.

If there's one thing that we definitely love about Reynolds,

it's one, their commitment to innovation.

They literally have a mock dealership

inside of their headquarters,

which is it's phenomenal to see,

phenomenal to tour.

And it's very, really exciting.

And next level inside of being able to challenge

and have a conversation

and also add a little wow factor.

With that, I'm sure there's a whole lot of wow factor

that's cooking and brewing for this particular event,

knowing that you've had this much history with Reynolds

and come through seeing the resilience of the industry,

which we're very proud to say,

we are a resilient group of people.

There is something special about the adaptation

that happens with automotive

and the people inside of it.

But with that, there's so many different

in the last few years,

so many different innovations and pivots

that have had to have been made.

And we wanna know when people are considering

or knowing that they're on their way to this event,

what are some of the things

that they're gonna be looking forward to

hearing and speaking about?

Yeah, so Amplify is our annual retail summit

and there's a few key pieces to it

and there's a few different reasons people attend,

but usually it's a blend of some combination of them

and the first one,

and I think one of the most important,

certainly the tech will take center stage

throughout the second day,

but just the connection that you get to make with peers,

some people that you know already,

you get to see face to face,

some that you haven't met before,

some that maybe you know from a distance,

but being able to connect,

whether that's on the golf course

or at the reception dinner,

just being able to sit down,

have a conversation and either connect or reconnect

is really, I think, one of the biggest pieces.

You guys have been in this industry for a long time,

as well as anybody.

Those relationships are what makes this industry

so great too and being able to learn from each other,

being able to push each other to get better,

that's a huge part of this event.

And then obviously we have a lot of best practice sharing.

We actually are hosting a,

we call it the Automotive Amplifiers Contest,

we've done this in the past,

we're doing it again this year,

where we take submissions for best practices

from across the country,

from operators across the country,

and then we select five finalists,

we bring them in,

they present live to a panel of judges

and at the end of the day,

we'll select two winners.

So that event is always a huge highlight.

And then we'll showcase some of our tech as well,

which is a lot of fun,

a lot of new pieces to the puzzle this year.

Everybody will be able to see Rilo,

which is our parts delivery robot.

Everybody seems to be really excited about that.

The dealers that have been getting it in their store,

seeing absolutely amazing results.

So that's been a big home run for us

and being able to have some folks see that'll be great.

Also some new offerings coming out of our Spark AI data

layer, so basically Spark AI is our unified AI data layer

that powers all of our AI tools,

connecting all that information.

And we have a lot of really interesting things coming out.

One that we're gonna release at the show,

but it's the one that we've been working on really hard

and I couldn't be more excited for.

Wow.

I can tell there's a lot of things getting ready to happen.

You earlier, you mentioned some keynotes,

you talked about a lot of,

I think a lot of amazing things

that people are gonna get there and get excited about.

Again, Reynolds and Reynolds is your everything.

You can literally use them as your toolbox, right?

And that's what I love about you guys,

but you guys are always looking for ways

and you guys are open to them

just using pieces of your toolbox too.

It doesn't have to just be every product,

though it works better, it's a better ecosystem.

We know that and everything people who experience that do.

But every once in a while, somebody has a little,

I don't want this other one,

but we still work with them and we still make it work.

DMSs tend to be like a big thing.

What's been a big surprise for you over since last year,

like compared to over the last 12 months

with all this AI talk and all this stuff,

what's been a big surprise or maybe something new

that you're gonna see at this event

that is gonna be a big like,

this is what the next 12, 24 months is gonna look like?

I think, I don't know if surprise is the right word,

but we'll use it.

The biggest surprise to me, I think,

is the speed with which we've been able

to put out tools with artificial intelligence.

And just how quickly things are moving.

I was just on a call this morning,

we've demoed this new piece of artificial intelligence

that we're rolling out.

And to see it progress, literally in the last three weeks

and just the progress where historically,

when you build out software, it takes time.

It just does.

And especially when you're trying to build it

into a large ecosystem and making sure

that the framework's correct.

But a lot of these tools that we're building now

and seeing now, the development cycles are so fast,

which is really exciting because what that means

is every iteration gets better, right?

So it's not the old days when you had a release

and then you made it a little better

and you had another release.

It's constantly learning, constantly growing,

constantly getting better and more effective and more efficient.

And what that means is we continue to solve problems

at a faster and faster pace.

You identify, and we've all been in enough stores

to probably be able to pinpoint,

okay, here's a couple of things that we need to fix.

And when you can do that,

and then you can iterate on it over and over again

at a really rapid pace,

the end product and the speed that you can get there

is pretty amazing.

So that's the thing that's probably been

the most surprising is just the speed

we've been able to go the last 12 months, six months,

three weeks, like I mentioned.

That's a great answer.

And that's something that, with AI,

because it's not really that new,

but what is becoming more of the flow,

it's much like when cell phones

and the cell phone companies and the creators of it,

they had a particular goal to eventually have one

in everybody's hand that eventually meant,

yes, the children too, right?

They wanna make sure that they put one of these devices

inside of everybody's hand

and then begin to continue to upgrade them as time goes on.

And the AI side, it's been getting this tool

inside of everybody's hand to be able to recognize

how to use it and how it augments you

and speeds you up.

But this has created a huge landscape

or a huge canvas for new creativity, right?

I can only imagine the types of new ideas

or the new dreams that get popped open

that come from us, all humans, right?

Just because we have an entirely new tool.

Now, at the Amplify event,

and you're talking about these things

that are gonna be happening at the event,

I'm jealous, I'm over here, man.

I know, right?

We're doing a little bit of scheduling to get out there,

but we're so thankful.

Again, we're gonna be visiting

some awesome people inside of our ecosystem

that are doing some great things.

So we're so thankful to go visit them.

But for those that are going to be a part of it

or those that are gonna consider possibly

to be a part of it next year,

and we're definitely gonna be on the list

and make sure that we mark out the dates

to be part of it next year.

But what are some of the creativity parts

that do actually occur with all of these users

getting together and being able to speak about it?

Great question.

Yeah, so we have a lot of workshops,

especially in the afternoon,

so breakout sessions and their structure

in a way where there's something for everybody.

So we have user groups.

So if we have current customers that wanna come in

and just get a little bit better

for everything from post and a deal and accounting,

how to make that as efficient as possible.

Some people get really excited about that stuff.

That's one that I personally probably

wouldn't get that excited about,

but it's important and it matters.

And efficiency in the business office

is really at the forefront of where can we make gains

and efficiency, right?

Everything from that as far as a workshop goes

to we'll actually have,

I don't know if you guys know Jen Suzuki.

Oh yeah.

Yeah, so Jen is joining us.

She's gonna do a session on mastering

service BDC calls.

So we'll have some training like that

to e-contracting and going paperless.

So really all over the board,

as far as whether it's user group training

to process training to going paperless,

it's just something for everybody

and we'll have a good chunk of time broken out for that.

So typically what happens though is we end up

with, because obviously I get to sit

and talk with a lot of folks and they're like,

okay, so did you record these?

Can you send it to me later?

Cause I wanted to go to all of them

and I could only do three.

So that's usually the struggle is picking

which ones you want to go to,

but hopefully we have a good,

I know we have a good mix.

Hopefully it's a good mix for everybody there

and they can find a track that works best for them.

That's awesome.

Greg, you said something there,

which is it's interesting

because I do want to make sure

that we do give a little bit

of historical knowledge for people.

For those of us that know all the tech

that's inside of the industry

or the companies that we can go to

to achieve having that inside of our tech stack.

Some people don't know the history

of some of the companies.

Give us a little bit.

If you can give us a short snippet

of some of the history

of how Reynolds and Reynolds started

and then turned into this incredible

conglomerate of Boston technology.

All right, we'll see y'all.

We'll go back to the beginning.

Reynolds and Reynolds was founded in 1866.

For a little context,

that was one year after the civil war ended.

That's how long, yeah,

that's how long the company's been around.

It's pretty wild.

And it started with one guy

who he was in the newspaper business

and he decided he wanted a little more for his life.

So he came to the big city of Dayton, Ohio

and started a printing company.

Then he started printing business forms

and then through a lot of hard work

and dedication he grew the company.

And you fast forward,

I'm gonna skip a lot of the steps here, obviously,

but you fast forward and to the 1920s,

Reynolds started printing.

It was actually through somebody

who ended up owning Reynolds at one point,

R.H. Grant, who was the leader of sales

for General Motors.

He came to Reynolds and said,

all right, I'm having trouble.

I'm going around the country.

All these GM stores, Chevrolet at the time,

all these Chevrolet stores,

and I'm trying to figure out

how to get them to sell more cars,

but there's nothing I can compare.

There's no standard.

There's no financial statement.

There's no metrics I can look at across the board.

He said, I need your help.

So Reynolds developed a standard financial statement

for Chevrolet dealers.

R.H. Grant rolled it out

across all of the dealerships in the U.S.

and he started basically having comparable metrics

to look at.

So you can point to somebody and say,

hey, you're doing poorly in this

or you're doing well in this.

So he developed benchmarks.

And over the course of the next five, seven years,

Chevrolet ultimately became the best selling vehicle

in the U.S. overtaking Ford.

And it was directly pointed to R.H. Grant's leadership.

When you fast forward,

R.H. Grant then ends up buying Reynolds and Reynolds

later on in his life.

And you go into the 60s

and we start working toward software

and developing really batch processing.

And then that moved into the DMS world.

And then the last 15, 20 years

has just been through the roof

as far as, and this is across the board.

This isn't just Reynolds, right?

But what technology has been able to do

over the last couple of decades

is absolutely astounding.

And we've really built out

and this is over the course of time

but built out a single system

that's focused on efficiency and profitability.

And from there, we're gonna build everything up, right?

And we talked about now

we're getting into this world of artificial intelligence

and being able to build out tools

that really help salespeople be more efficient

help technicians be more productive.

And I don't know,

you can probably hear the excitement of my voice.

I just get so excited about our progress

and where we're going, what's possible.

But that's the really brief, long history

of Reynolds and Reynolds.

I think that's great.

What's amazing to hear the evolution

how it never stayed the same

how uncomfortable was what made the difference, right?

And the constant way of doing that.

Cause if they were still doing what they started doing

Reynolds and Reynolds would not be around anymore.

It would have fell out.

They would have not never got the gusto

but it all started with the idea of I want more

the, that eat those.

I want, there's here, I have this

but I know there's more for us.

There's more opportunity.

If we just look around for it

if we just do something slightly different

we become innovative.

And I love that.

And that's a great story.

I love that you're excited to tell that story.

You got me excited about the story.

I think that too many dealers in this world right now

are getting stuck in that what always worked mode.

Right?

If they, if you think about all the different people

who've been leaders inside Reynolds and Reynolds

if they were stuck in that again

they wouldn't be where they're at now.

It's important that we get outside of that

and we look for ways to get breakthrough.

What would be some advice that you would give dealers?

Hey, look, I know that you've always done it a certain way

but come to our event for one

learn how other people are doing what you're doing

but breakthrough don't do it the way you always did

it look for ways that are different.

What kind of advice would you give?

How would you give them that advice?

Yeah, so I hate being prescriptive, right?

So I try not to set myself up

somebody maybe not giving advice

but I can speak from my experience

and this is for a lot of people I'm sure

but ask a lot of questions, right?

Even if it seems like a stupid question

just have somebody start talking, ask the question

and you never know what you're gonna uncover.

It might be something that just solidifies

what you're doing, verifies what you're doing

it might be something that gets you to think

about it differently or on the flip side of it

maybe they start sharing something

and you have experience doing that

and you say, hey, that worked for me because of this

or that didn't work for me because of this

and you end up in a dialogue, right?

And once you're in a dialogue and a conversation

that's when the magic happens.

So just asking questions, reaching out

making those connections, the more conversations you can have

that I think the better off you're gonna be

because you're gonna learn one way or the other

either your perspective's right, your perspective's wrong

or we all need to learn and grow a little bit

which is usually what typically happens.

Yeah, and that's something that

we definitely love doing at any of the masterminds

anytime that you do bring people together

that are using the tool

that are engaging inside of the challenges

and can take a look at benchmarks.

It's awesome the way that you did explain that

because benchmarks are critical

being able to know what other people are doing

whether it's in a similar market as yours

or a completely different one

but being able to have something to gauge yourself

is the best way for you to ever track your growth.

If you don't know where it is that you're at

and where it is that you wanna go

you're never gonna get to where it is

that you're meant to go

and a company like Reynolds and Reynolds

getting where it is that they are

it's just, it's mind blowing to think

if we had to explain to the creators

and those that initially put their foot to the pavement

and went door to door or went and connected their system

or this solution to dealers in the past

and said, there's gonna be a day we go paperless.

Could you imagine what their thought were of that?

No, seriously, we're going paperless one day

this is the future, right?

And then be like, what?

That doesn't even make sense.

And now we're like, is there even paper

inside of the dealership anymore?

Should we even have hard paper

unless somebody's printing steps

or doing stuff like that?

Where is the paper from the big digital signing tables

to the signing pads?

Everything is moving inside of a direction

that is so much less paper filled

but it doesn't change that

we're always turning the page on something new.

We're always rewriting what it is that was awesome

and great just a few years ago

and now is outdated and obsolete.

And people like Reynolds and Reynolds

people like the dealers are gonna be

at this particular event

are just an example of the absolute dedication

that there is inside of this industry

to constantly get better

but also not be left behind anymore.

I believe that there was a time

where so many got left behind

inside of the technology sprint forward

that had to happen after COVID occurred, right?

When the COVID scenario occurred

so much of a leap forward happened

when it came to technology

and you guys were right there on the forefront of it.

Now you guys were all on the post COVID time, right?

There's like a stamp on history

that is pre COVID, post COVID

and now as we're seeing things get to a point

where dealers and everybody in the industry

is recognizing there's always gonna be crazy challenges

and for you Greg, you came in

at one of the scariest moments

we personally seen inside of the industry, right?

When dealerships were shutting down

banks were cutting them off, right?

Insurance companies were going under

and all of that stuff was happening

and we still are here.

I'm still proud to say we still here

and we're still people for that

but speaking of be here

there are people that can be there

and be at that event

but we wanna make sure

for those of you that are listening

for those of you that are watching

that still have time to get to the event

it is going to be at the Ritz Carlton

in Las Colinas, Dallas, Texas

man, I wanna go to the Ritz Carlton, that'd be awesome

but it's gonna be August 18th through the 19th

and if you wanna get registered

go to rayray.com backslash, amplify

and forward slash, forward slash, forward slash,

backslash, it's a slash guys, right?

Make sure that you get there on the slash

mark the time, get yourself there

if you do have the time

make sure that you do get there

there's gonna be so much fun.

If you do, you're right

Greg gotta say, gotta ask

if there's one thing that you can tell somebody

about this event

if there's a dealer that's already registered

but hasn't bought their airline ticket yet

hasn't got their hotel

but you know the deal

they always go to the last second

but they're like, okay maybe I should

we need to get this month going

what's one reason why they should go?

For me, I get real geeked out

about seeing what's possible with the technology

so to me personally

it's come see what's new

what's awesome with technology

everything from I mentioned Rilo to

all of our AI tools to Curator

which is a goobagoo CDP product

at its next level

it's changing the game there

I get really excited about that stuff

even if it's not for you today

just knowing what's there

having something to compare to

is always important

so that's probably what I lean towards

but I mentioned it before

and I'll say it again

the connections are probably the most important piece

being able to connect

with whether it's folks at Reynolds

whether it's other dealers

whether it's OEMs

whoever being able to connect with the industry

having one more touch point

always makes a difference

every time

I don't think there's ever an instance

when we get together and we say

and that just wasn't a good use of time

but think about every event you've ever been to

it's you know what

I was debating going

I wasn't sure

but you know what

I'm really glad I did

because I got to hang out with X, Y and Z

and that's really what it's gonna boil down to

I think for this event

like so many others

is the opportunity to connect

outweighs pretty much

and get a potential negative

Okay and Greg just one last question

I got to ask

and this could be for some of the people

that are considering making the migration

to Reynolds and Reynolds

but have yet to do

is this an open place for them to come

see, feel, learn, touch

and maybe get a little bit of taste

of what they could be stepping into?

100%

yeah absolutely

the entire industry is welcome

and we have looking at registration numbers

we have a huge number of dealers

that aren't currently on our Reynolds DMS

that are joining us

so we're happy to have them

happy to talk

it's a great opportunity to see things

and it's maybe a little different than

it's so funny to think about an NADA

or an event like that

that are so important

and staples in our industry

if I'm a customer

and I'm going into a booth of somebody else

then who's gonna see me

and is it gonna start the whispers

and so you don't have to worry about that stuff

right there's no worries there

so it's a

I don't know I'll call it a less stressful way

to get a look

and see if it's a fit for you

so absolutely everybody's welcome

thank you

and a great time to see behind the curtain

you're gonna love it

I'm telling you all

you're definitely gonna love it

and when you get the chance to get out there

and we're gonna love it

when we finally get the chance to get out there too

but we're getting so super jealous

of each and every one of you that have registered

make sure that you do buy your tickets

make sure that you get out there

make sure that you bring your notepads

your notebooks

and you collect a whole lot of contact

contacts

and a lot of new friends

and build those relationships

that build this forward

Greg we appreciate your time today

we're so very very thankful

for you taking a moment to just brew with us

again thank you for interviewing us

but thank you again for being on the show

enhancing the quality of CarGuy Coffee

cheers to you sir

we appreciate you being out here

and for those that did not book their ticket

for those that are not getting out there to the event

and even towards us

for not being able to make it to the event

folks we wanna make sure that we do consistently

drop F-bombs

now we didn't get to drop it on your show Greg

but we do like to drop F-bombs

and that is to forgive

to focus and to fly

so we can keep growing all the time

help us out one time

I know it might be a little strange

it might be a little weird

but get your hands on your shoulders

and help us out real quick

on three

one

two

three

forgive

focus

fly
