We've waited here long enough. It's time. We are here. It's time to get back focus and get back on TAS, J-O-N. It's time to let these people know.

They're like, see in my mind, it started off. It's just like a little black market. You get what I'm saying? But now it's like a black mall. So when I be doing these episodes, in my mind, I'm really just walking through like a black-ass mall. You feel what I'm saying? It's a food court.

It's a massage therapist in there. There's a little place that sell knickknacks. There's a spot to get your hair done, car insurance. We get your home remod. It's like, but everything in that black. It's niggas in there ain't doing nothing. Just niggas walk around.

It's a shoe store in there, bitch. Corn dog spot. Croy got a little popcorn stand in the middle of the mall. Yeah, yeah. You know a little popcorn? Come on, man. Nicholas and them got a little spot in there. Everybody who been on the black market got a little spot.

We didn't have everybody come in here to talk about, here to talk about mortgage, talking about how to get your products on Amazon. Got to get the frames. Frames. We've had entrepreneurs here. We've had authors and artists. We've had people in the fashion industry. We had people on here with a dollar in a dream.

But today, I feel like we get to have one of our own on the black market. Oh, man. You feel me? And we know this shit is dope. Mm-hmm. Because that's exactly how we came into this shit. Before there was any of these things. Mm-hmm.

Just the real one out here trying to make it. Definitely. So before I even get into the intro, just look at the camera and tell them. Tell them who you is, young man. Hey, man, I'm Teague Higgins. They call me dot net, CEO, founder, creator of Be Goody, LFC, man. Being the goat is debatable, being goatey is undeniable.

Greatest of all time you, man. Simple as that, man. How? What else? What else I got to say? Everyone wants to be goady, everything, every brand. So just be goady, man. None other than .net.

Hey! Dot net! Yeah! Dot net! Not yet! Now whether he's on the black market or not, my nigga be right there talking shit. With me the whole time,

I'm like, but before I had been saying goate

since, like, LeBron won the championship in Cleveland, I was like, all right, LeBron ain't the goat, but he's goat like he's goatee, you know what I'm saying? So I had been playing, just saying it. And like I said, 2020, that's when it came in my head. I told her 6, bro, I got the birthday down, nigga, came in my head, I'm like, pause. My need, two, three, play too, man.

The internet of the motherfuckery, bro. But, yeah, it came to me, bro, and Google it right there. Because I'm like, no, I ain't a way nobody never put a while in the end. You know what I'm saying? And this is the greatest of all the time. You, she was nowhere, bro. I was on Instagram. I hashtag it.

It wasn't on Instagram. Google, of course, it went nowhere. Websites. All that was open. I'm like, bet. Right then, thankfully. Uh, me and the missus just paid up the credit card, bro. So I had some, I had something I can trademark it right then.

You know what I'm saying? Cause I was like, nah, this is the one. And, um, and what, and before I even trademarked, what happened was when I made it, I was, I'm gonna put it on the shirt, my bad, I'm about to put it on the shirt for myself. And I typed it in, put it on the shirt, and this was like the third font that came up. It was a regular, then another one than this. I was like, bruh. that looked like something you know what i'm saying and then that's what made me go ahead and

i did the logo on like five minutes and i was like all right this is something and uh made made my first shirt um like i said trademarked that night made me a shirt how i made the first shirt what was what's the thing where not drop shipping but uh printful yeah i made the first shirt on printful i just like hey i don't know how to do no clothes and nothing but yeah I need to have this. Made the first shirt on Printful. They sent it to me. Actually, the first person who got the shirt,

you got Tyler Chronicles. Yeah. Fluke. Yep. I took it to them. Took it on the show, more than culture. I was filming for it.

I still filmed for it. And him and Ronnie went crazy. Like, bro. Now, I need that, bro. That's into being going, and been getting the same response since. You know what I'm saying? Once people hear the meaning of it.

and you see the logo, it's cool logo, you know what I'm saying, you see the quality. It's great. You gotta stop spoiling me, though, because now I'm in the habit of, anytime I see you out with some product, I feel like I'm supposed to walk away or something. And you know that, I'm like,

I'm like, bro, I gotta hurry up and get, because I gotta have them shorts right there. I got you, I saved them, dog. These the last of the dime breed right here. I'm gonna drop some more this summer too, though. Man, what you're going with, though? What's the new flavor? Um, man.

Man, I'm trying to figure out. See, I like this. This is called Sharpa, Sharpa. So I like fooling with this. I don't put this. I'm going to be pulling this on different stuff. You know what? This shit be hot as hell, too.

When it's insulated. Yeah. I'm talking about I had a show in Buffalo, and I got a polo that's just like this. Man, I'm talking about walking through that motherfucker sweating. I was like, this shit's so hot. So that wasn't, and that's why I was like made the shorts, and I ain't make them short.

Like, that was going on is for the knees-end type of fellas, you know what I'm saying. I already know Big Gip wants some. Yeah, yeah, he definitely wants some. I was mad I ran into Sleepy and I hadn't had nothing on me, you know. Yeah, most definitely. Yeah, so that was Slick inspired. Right. You know what I'm saying?

She's skinned. Down down the mom. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, Sliq. Now I'm thinking about it. I ain't think about it then. Yeah, three stags. Remember, they went on tour.

He had the blind wig with the motherfucking big boots in the fuzzish shorts. With snow boots. Yeah, doggone. Bummer on three stacks. But when Gip was on here, he said him and Drey, they used to just go out to like thrift stores and just look, knick-knacks shops and just see how far they can really, like, you know, take the style.

And it was just like, you know, friendly competition, challenging each other and just like, how flat can you get, you know what I'm saying? That's how the NBA is now, they be walking through. Yeah, they be, yeah, they be, they be wild and that's my thing. Like, I ain't, I'm not, I'm not, I wasn't in the fashion like that, but you know how we do shoes and a hat.

Sometimes black people will fuck around and make some fashion on accident. Exactly, bro. Like, so now that I'm, but I am creative, so I'm gonna be making up stuff. My clothes gonna be like trinkets, you know what I'm saying? I plan on putting just different stuff, man, different pockets instead of a hoodie pocket right here.

What about pockets right here? Because you wear a hoodie, you end up dragging, stretching it out. You know what I'm saying? So where I put the pocket right here, you put the key in your phone, you know, creative stuff like that, man. And, yeah, it's up. So look, where can they go see all the products laid out in full and all of that? Visit b-goody.com, www.b.b.gote.com.

Also, on Instagram is B-Gote underscore ATL. You got stuff for women, kids, everybody in the family. You can put any of people. Big boy. Yep, yeah. What you need? everybody, man. Like, you can put it on anything, too. Like, that's the thing. It ain't a clothing line. It's a brand. Like, we got, you put Goody on a sports bottle, the kids gonna love it. You can put Goody. You ever seen Nike on the car? That looked crazy. Yeah. But you put Goody on the car. It's like, damn, he'd be in aggressive of all time while he driving. You know what I'm saying? Yeah, my boy got a white box shiver called Air Force One.

See? Oh, that's hard, though. Yeah. So like, that's, that's what I'm on, man. It's inspirational. Um, I just, Today, I just started the process of the nonprofit organization, and it's greatest of all-time youth. I like it. It's simply that, man. So we're going to be going around talking to the kids, not kids. I want to talk to, like, 12 graders. I basically want to do what they are doing for these adults with these motivational conferences.

It's going to be called GoodyCon. Basically what they know with these conferences, but to like 12th graders who fend to go in the world. Like folks ain't tell us about speaking stuff into existence and manifesting and believing in yourself. And you know what I'm saying? They ain't telling us that they told us go to school or get a job at the factor in the city, you know what I'm saying? So I kind of want to be that person for the youth, like people telling these grown folks how they need to change their life and do this. Like, well, we're going to do it for the people who are the future, who are going to be running the world.

So that just came about, too, man. Ain't it crazy how everybody want to help the kids don't nobody want to help the adults? Yeah. Once you blow that opportunity as a kid, it's over. It's over with. There ain't no support groups for grown men on Thursday nights. Man, what y'all doing?

Man, we're just going to sit around, have some wine. No. No, nobody's ever going to invest in that program. So you mean to tell me, you guys, you got some grown-ass men. We're just going to sit around and get drunk and talk about their problem? Not, absolutely not.

That's what titty bars are for, my boy. You're not in a bar. You shout out, man. Yeah, but nobody ever sponsored us doing that. Nobody's going to put some money to the side. And be like, you know, for all the men out here struggling to date these hot girls, man, we... The bus's going to be at public at 8 o'clock.

We're going to Magic Blue Flame and... We're going on the strip club, run. All expenses paid. For anybody who want to be there, you don't have to bring nothing but yourself. Nothing but yourself. It's therapeutic. Food, ones will be provided,

and all the liquor and bud you could smoke. Damn, I might have to, that might be how I get back to the city, bro. That might, because you say, when nobody's- Just find me a black transportation company. Give me a party bus. You put a little money inside and just let all my niggies just coming in, you know, just, like, especially like niggas who didn't want to court that week and beat the charges.
