and the nuts and the barriers of the thing. So you gotta have you some of these right here, man. We got my man Ryan Scott in here on the black market with us today. Now this shit crazy. Now we always try to find some cool, interesting people to talk to on here. And this is definitely cool and interesting.

My boy is selling pistachio nuts. Yes, sir. Bro, how are you getting into this, this bit? This industry, bro. Okay. Cut a long story short. I wrote something down. My mom told me to write something down when I was like 15 years old.

We was in a homeless shelter. And I played baseball growing up. So my goal was always on my own nut company. And I ended up going to do Mexico. Really? Really, bro. Yeah. This was always the goal.

Yeah, for sure. You got to always think outside the box. You're right. You know what I'm saying? I ain't want to be no baseball player or no rapper or, you know, play hoops and that like that. So I always had, I know I had to think outside the box to, you know, make something better for myself. What was the first batch like? I mean, I was trapping them things out of a zip-law bag.

For real? Super trash, yeah. Why did you pick pistachios out of all things? I ended up meeting somebody in New Mexico. And so when my grandmother passed, she told me, man, get, you know, pretty much get, your shit together. And so I ended up talking to him and he was like, you know, what you're trying to do? And I told him, I want to do my own nut company. Try it up. Let me a pebble what? Yeah, they hit too. I ain't even cutting you off. I'm just like, bro, I might work on eat on a

old. He got to. And so he asked me what I wanted to do. And I told him on my own my own nut company. I think I'm just tried out. And this man, I ain't, like, we talked over time and he told me, hey, I own a pistachial farm. You know what I'm saying? So everything. kind of aligned itself, especially after my grandmother passed. So, you know, you end up taking the good with the bad, and shit, that's how I started. End up flying out there, seeing certain things, and coming back, trapping stuff out

with the zip-lock bag on Old National. For real? Yeah, and so. He motherfucker hit. Yeah, they hit. And so. Did you have to learn, like, about the industry? Yeah, learned about the industry.

He put you up? Yeah. He put me on, you know, taught me a lot of stuff. of stuff, like, man, just how they grow, how you grow them, and I ain't know it takes like 15 years to grow a tree, like to fully harvest the tree. And you don't start some pistachios to like five to eight years. You know what I'm saying? So these motherfuckers are eight years off? Damn, yeah. Man, I'm a fucking, yeah. You should take like real, a little couple one.

That's the dog. You come off with your own flavor. My bad. Excuse me, bro. Yeah. You're going to fucking, for real. Appreciate it, man. So that's how, you know, Long story short. I'll tell you put a little inspirational story. Yeah, I don't really like it, honestly. I think, I thought it was corny, but, you know,

sometimes you gotta tell your story. Yeah, I'm saying, you got different spotlight. Yeah, I want to, you know, showcase, you know, certain people on the back. That's what we're doing over here. Yeah. Rebellion Harvest, like, so how did you, how did you transfer your idea into

bringing it into the physical world? Man, really just writing, writing stuff down and, you know, end up designing everything by myself. Didn't know where the hell I was going. I ain't know how to, really, I ain't know nothing. I ain't gonna hold you. I just, you just gotta start, really. And I seen people, you know, people clown,

you know, people clown you when you begin and when you start. And so I just really just kept, somebody said, man, you know, you got something, just keep going. And so that's what I started doing. I ended up finding, you know, figuring things out on how to design my own packaging. And I wanted to be taken, you know, someone to take me serious.

So that was like the first thing. So when some people tell me like, your packaging is good, you know what I'm saying? That mean a lot to me because your packaging is like the initial when somebody see you. So I wanted to be taking serious. And did you have to go and negotiate with the dude from New Mexico like a drug deal?

How many pistachios do you want? Yeah, it was definitely a, a negotiation, but he really showing me love and teaching me about the business so I can get my own for him. What's been your most successful part of your business? Like as far as, when did you have your most success?

When I was able to get into some stores. And I had to sell myself because ain't nobody gonna take you serious. You know what I'm saying? At least starting out because people skeptical. So what I ended up doing is I give you 10 bags and If you're on sale, I never come back.

But if you sell out, we gotta do business. And that's how we end up getting into a lot of stores. And I'm in one store in Baltimore. So we're kind of growing a little bit slowly, but surely we're grown. Right. Yeah. That's dope, man.

Stay independent. Don't let them get all your shit. Yeah. Because these right here, this alone gonna take you over the top. Wait till the hood, chicks, find out you got pistachio lemon pepper whip. It's over with That's the three magic words Around here

Sunflower season. That's exactly where it's thundioles. Yeah, that's why I wanted to... Are you going to venture out into some sunflower seeds? Yeah, for sure. You got to find a dude in New Mexico with the sunflower seeds now. Yeah, I will.

The same dude don't have him? Nah. You ain't to talk to him. I know. Because he might be mad. He'd be like, so you couldn't talk to me about your sunflower seeds? How much sunflower seeds do you want?

I'm pretty sure he, you know what I'm saying? He knows something. Yeah. But I think the goal right now is to do one thing at a time. Right. You know what I'm saying? But definitely, you know, move up, vertically integrate the business.

So that's the goal. Right, have you went on Shark Tank with them yet? Nah. Not yet. Don't go. They're going to try to buy the business. These are hit, though, bro. What can we do to help you push this?

I don't know if you heard me, like, is there anywhere they can order online? Rebellionharvest.com, yeah. Bro, we're looking forward to seeing you really,

because you really might just take over where the motherfucking Mr. Plains left off, bro. That's the goal. We only, you know, shot with us. Black on. I think that was also the goal, too. Like, it's never, you don't, you never really see black people

in spaces like this. You know what I'm saying? Exactly. Because I'm about to kick an idea to you, too. It might sound far-fetched right now because I know you, you're doing pistachios right now, but I feel like the streets need

a trail mix, bro. You're right. They do. That's next. Put some together. Yeah, we should. Throw some pistachios in there. Yeah.

Mix that with a little sunflower seeds. Yeah. Throw some raisins in there for razzled dabbos. Yeah. You feel me? Some cashews. Yeah. Whole almonds.

Yeah. You feel I'm a little walnuts in there or something. Yeah. We should. Then we got to do, we got to do some. I don't fuck with them. That could be an option. Yeah.

Then we got to do some vegan ones. for the people who got the nut allergy. Cichico can't eat the shit? I don't know. Yeah. I was going to say, I don't really do the vegan, but... I know, but, bro, just... Come on, we think it forward. Yeah, you got to.

We might have to fly over to Brazil and get some sunflower seeds that... You feel I me? Yeah. We're going to figure it out together. Oh, hell yeah. We're going to figure it out. Drop the site again, man.

Let them know what they can find you on social media. com. You know, place your order on there, and it should be there in like two, three days. I made the people part of your operation? Probably like six total. Oh, okay. Yeah, we're about to start ordering about three cases a week.

Say less. I mean, a month. Say less. That'd just be way too many, pistachios. Yeah, say less. You got honey roasted? No, not yet. Honey roasted.

Honey roasted. Shellless. Yeah, we're kicking the shellers out. We're kicking the shale's out in every year. Bro, there's a big shit. Yeah. What else? What the family say?
