Yeah, that's time. That's time. No, fuck it. We didn't make it hard, man. The most fun ever. Yeah. And all my years

have been, man. You know what? It was. freshman year. Of course. Freshman year. Every single time, bro. Freshly year.

You know what I mean? One of the little spots that, you know, you're like, you know, you're little calf, but it's like the upgraded calf. He left the door unlocked, and we went in there and got all the drinks out there, bitch, nanger.

We was walking back before we were parking lot with bags of drinks. Niggas had drinks the whole first semester, man. That was a funny and shit ever. That was a funny and shit ever, man. You were all right. You were confessed to this.

I mean, hey, I didn't say I was there. I just said I was there. You saw it happening. All right, what would you say the most fun you had? That's easy. Howard Homecoming freshman year when Drake came out.

2012. All right. Oh, my God, bro. You passed out, do you? Oh, man. You know, the last kid. You know, ladies, among us. What do I need to dance?

We need just enough. I'm glad I'm prepared. for this. I'm good. There you go. He ran back upstairs. Guys, guess what's good there? Drake.

Drake. Drake. Drake. Drake. Drake. Drake. He didn't go to school all week. He was just laying there, man.

I had the post on the ceiling. Oh, you know. No, just lead just on the ceiling. Jeez. What would you say? Man, favorite memory? I would say, uh, I think it was a junior year, we did a party bus.

Oh, my God. It was somebody's birthday, and it was, like, invite only. I think it was 10 guys and probably, like, 40 girls. It was crazy. That's what I picked the school that I went to. True story. It was crazy. I went on a college tour.

I went, we went from all the HBCUs from D.C. to Florida. Oh, yeah. And I went to A&T, but they was on fall break. So it was like, why I mean? That shit. Dead and fuck, bro. And I went to Winston and seen 20 girls before I seen one dude.

I was like, this is all right here. This is okay right here. This is a where I could be, you know what I mean? So, yeah, but this is the best decision I haven't made, man. One of the best decisions I haven't made was going to an HBCU, especially for me, but we're getting into all that. Definitely.

Getting into all that. Well, you know, it's very important that people support HBC. Yes. Very much so. That's why we got these guys over here with us, because they know a little bit about that. Yeah.

There's a lot about it, actually. You ready to jump it up? Let's do it. Hey man, welcome back to the black market. The black market. Yeah, we started with black excellence. Now it's the black market. We didn't spread enough excellence around

that it's a market. Yeah, yeah. Because it's black and excellence, we mocked it, so now we got the black market, because we're mocking all the black excellence. Well, you know. Because we're trying to make things a little more profitable. You know what I'm like a Walmart of black people.

Yep. You know, so check this out, man. We got, you remember them dope-ass HBCU pieces we was wearing on the BET Award? Yes, I do. Bro, these are the masterminds behind this brand. Yeah, I know you've been seeing their work all over the places, support HBCU with the dope sweaters and hoodies and T-shirts and everything. All the celebrities got them and, you know, all in the airport with them.

Let me make sure I introduce y'all to my man Corey, my man Justin. Yeah. We like to keep it real informal. Make it feel like they know you already. Thank you, y'all. Like, let them know who y'all are, man, and what it is. My name is Corey. One of the CEOs of Support by Colleges.

Yeah. I went to Howard University and started this brand right on campus. You know, looking for a little extra money and started making some t-shirts. And next thing you know, here we are a few years later, just running as a business, something that's learned as a hobby stuff. And it's taking off, man. First of all, thank you guys,

because y'all made us some money when y'all went to the BETT Awards. Appreciate that, boy. So you said, you got my cut. I'm just saying, Lois. You should the brother? We need some of that money. I don't remember the contract.

We have a track, we got a track. We got a track. Yeah, I know. I got John Benison on. You have your people called my people. You have to find the invoice? Yeah, no problem. No, man, much love to y'all.

We appreciate y'all, you know, reaching out to us and making sure we had, you know, had it in hand to throw it on. It's nothing like to support, you know, your brothers like that. That's exactly what we wanted to hear by putting it on, bro, because that's our mission is to help each other up, man.

So we appreciate that. Just to know there's some black men ate off of that, man. Y'all went to the whole shit work. You know, I would say, as far as being illustrious, the most illustrious HBCUs. You know what I mean? As far as status as people. You're going to catch hell for saying.

No, I'm just saying. As far as the perception, you know what I mean? And for you to go to the one that I would say gets the most publicity and the most recognition of all HBCUs, why support black colleges? Because Howard gets a tremendous amount of support. So what made y'all go with that as this? Yeah, and how did you end up in Howard? Yeah, so we both have very interesting stories.

My mom actually went to Howard. Okay. So, it was funny because she went to Howard, but all my life I heard about A&T. Lanket, A&T, A&T, because I'm from Greensboro. So, you know. To him to the Aggies. Yeah, shout out to A&T, the Aggies. I almost went there.

That was my second choice. But I got to Howard, and I went for a random visit, and I think it was, like, accepted students there one of those days where the grass is cut, all the food is stocked. Everybody dressing up, and I just stepped on campus, and I just felt like I was at home, like, it was crazy. And I visited a lot of schools, and just nothing made me feel like Howard made me feel when I stepped on campus, and I was like, I got to be here. And so I wanted to get away from my mom, too, and my family, because it's just a lot.

In college, I wanted to be free. And so I was like, man, this is the decision I want to make. And then my mom went there. She was the only person to graduate from college in my family. So I just wanted to, you know, pay my respects to her and make sure. That was good. So that was it. My story is pretty simple.

Yeah, mine is totally different. So I was the first person in my family to go to college in general. Okay. All right. Okay. Appreciate that. So actually, I was getting a haircut. Granted, this was damn there.

Eight years ago, probably. I was getting a haircut. And it wasn't even my actual barber. You know, when you got your replacement barber because your barber are not really there. Stand-back. So my standby. So he was like, what schools did you get accepted to? I told him University of North Texas, Baylor University, and then Howard.

And then he was like, man, go to Howard. And then I didn't know about fraternity, sororities, nothing. HBCUs anything, and I was like, you know what? It's the one that's out of state. Let me go get that out of state experience. Well, why the fuck would you listen to your all-terian? Exactly. Which is crazy. He ain't even your first bar.

It's your side bar. He should have been. Back-up bars. He should have been. He probably watching this now. Like, you owe me some money, too. But you owe everything, man. What's this motherfucker, man?

But no, that was a story, right? Now, did you like, you still get cut by the barber? No, I ain't got a haircut. so long. But look, I seen them, I went back home and I seen him in the club randomly. So I had to go up to my, hey brother, appreciate you making that suggestion in my senior year because it really shaped my life, like going

to the HBCU. That's what it mean when it said take a village, bro. You'll never know where you might hear some good shit from. Right, all the way. So why support black colleges in that environment? Yeah, because, I mean, even with my story, you know, that was something I didn't know about at all. So when I got there and I realized

that it was so much black excellence and so many people that looked like me trying to do the same thing. We need to bring awareness to this because there's no reason that my mom, my grandma, myself, and all the other kids in my high school didn't know about it at all. So, that was the motive behind it. Well, at least for me. Yeah, I mean, kind of similar, but you think

about it. When you're getting recruited to go to colleges or, you know, people are reaching out, all is is it's college fairs. And it ain't no cool way to show HBCUs. Like, people weren't putting it out there and promoting it. Back in the day, you had Martin, Fresh Prince. They used to wear the HBCU stuff, Queen Latifah, but then that kind

of, like, stop. 80s. That was wrong. 85, you know what I'm saying? So now we was like, you know, we want to bring it back in a way that people we can relate to our people. And so merchandise is the way that we can do so. And I had just happened to make a random shirt on campus that everybody liked.

And so we was like, man, we can use this and we could take it to this school, this school, this school. And then we were like, well, let's make something that all the schools can wear. And that's what's the quarterback college is kind of came out. So what was the first T-shirt? It was a T-shirt. It was a Howard University shirt.

And it was just like a logo, some pinstripes, just like a regular. Howard shirt with a logo and then my friends from A&T was like oh let me get one for homecoming so we made an A&T one my family was like oh let me get one for FAMU and so I'm like man I got to make something that everybody can get it so we made a uh it was our logo and some kentee print and on the back and had all of the schools listed that way everybody can feel like they could be a part of it so that's kind of how I got started so when did y'all start making money from it like Juel was property so we were making a lot of money in

college so me and Jesse used to throw parties so we already knew how to sell things Part of you're just selling the same experience over. Right. So we already knew how to make money selling something. And so we were making money in college. I couldn't tell you the profit margins. I knew I had a pocket full of money. Hey, it's Blake HECD is right there.

Hey, it's Blake H-B-Nove. That's a fact. A pocketful of money. You got a pocket full of problems with money, so that's a fact. And so it was like one of those things where I was like, oh, this could actually go. And after school, after we got out of school, we kind of stopped it, and then just recently bought it back about three years ago.

So it was one of those things in college, it was cool. And then when I got off campus, me and him both started just doing, like, working regular jobs. And so it was one of those things we kind of let go. And then, you know, three years ago, we was like, we got to bring this back. That's a good question for you because I think a lot of HBCU students go through that process of, you know, a lot of us are the first people to go to college and our families, you know what I mean? And a lot of people don't come from the legacy of having collegiate. your experience, so you

follow the mold to where you go to school, you graduate, you go get a job. What was the point where you realize, man, fuck this shit? Oh, I know mine. Freshman year, bro. Freshman year, because we was making so much money, I skipped a grade, so I was 17 in college. And then,

bro, you're talking about 16, 17, making $10, $15,000 a month from parties? I was like, bro, why am I here? This don't make no sense. He tried to drop out every year. I try to drop out every single year. So, but then I was just like, it don't sense for me to be here because I can learn more outside of the university. Like, we learned in business from someone who's never owned a business before. Like, it didn't make sense to me.

So we started our own business and started making money. And that's when it was just like, man, I don't need to be here to do this. But your entire identity has been fabricated. Your beloved brother goes missing without a trace. You discover the depths of your mother's illness, the way it has echoed and reverberated throughout your life, impacting your very legacy. Hi, I'm Danny Shapiro. And these are just a few of the profound and powerful stories I'll be mining on our 12th season of Family Secrets. With over 37 million downloads, we continue to be moved and inspired by our guests and their courageously told stories. I can't wait to share 10 powerful new episodes with you, stories of tangled up identities, concealed truths, and the way in which

family secrets almost always need to be told. I hope you'll join me and my extraordinary guests for this new season of Family Secrets. Listen to Family Secrets Season 12 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. If a baby is giggling in the back seat, they're probably happy. If a baby is crying in the back seat, they're probably hungry. But if a baby is sleeping in the back seat, will you remember they're even there? When you're Extracted, stressed, or not usually the one who drives them, the chances of forgetting them in the back seat are much higher. It can happen to anyone.

Parked cars get hot fast and can be deadly. So get in the habit of checking the back seat when you leave. The message from NHTSA and the ad council. Adventure should never come with a pause button. Remember the movie pass era, where you could watch all the movies you wanted for just $9? It made zero cents, and I could not stop thinking about it. I'm Bridget Todd, host of the tech podcast, there are no girls on the internet.

On this new season, I'm talking to the innovators who are left out of the tech headlines. Like the visionary behind a movie pass, Black founder Stacey Spikes, who was pushed out of movie pass the company that he founded. His story is wild and it's currently the subject of a juicy new HBO documentary. We dive into how culture connects us. When you go to France, or you go to England, or you go to Hong Kong, those kids are wearing Jordans. They're wearing Kobe's shirt. They're watching Black Panther. And the challenges of being a Black founder. Close your eyes and tell me what a tech founder looks like. They're not going to describe someone who looks like me and they're not going to describe someone who looks

like you. I created There Are No Girls on the Internet because the future belongs to all of us. So listen to There Are No Girls on the Internet on the IHurt Radio app, Apple podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts. So you didn't get a regular job ever. So I've had two regular jobs ever in my life. I'm the worst employee ever. I worked at shoe carnival, and they would tell me, like, hey, your job for the first hour is to sweep, and it would take me from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., and I'll sweep the whole thing, just going slow, like, just a terrible employee. And then, like, so then afterwards, when I graduated, I had one more job doing digital marketing, and then, like, six months in, I was like, this is impossible for me to, like, take directions from other people telling me when I can go on

vacation and things like that. So I just quit, and then I just started being an entrepreneur from there. Okay. Yeah, for me, it was kind of different. So we actually, when we moved out to Atlanta, I moved out randomly to Atlanta. And I got a job with Tyler Perry. So I was like, I called Justin. I'm like, Justin, come out here. They give this free money.

We're doing social media, marketing and branding. And so it was a-tahler like, hey, nigger. That shit, bro. Let these motherfuck think I'm giving away money. That work was easy for us. Like, we marketing and brands so much, it was so easy for us. And so we made our own terms. I was like, I want to work from home.

I want an office, and they gave us everything we asked for. And so it got to a point where they started asking for more and more. And I was like, man, I feel like they're asking for too much based off of what I came in saying that I wanted. And so it got to a point one day, we started doing the clothing brand again. We was like, we should start making the hoodies again and stuff. And we started making it. And then we just started seeing money coming in, like, easily. Like people was like, where y'all have been at these past few years?

And I was like, yeah, it's time to quit. And so we walked away from a job of Tala Perry. And everybody was like, y'all crazy, y'all crazy. And I'm like, I explain to people today, like, we're making 100K plus a year, but now, like, we can make 100K in a day now. So it's like, some people had that mindset of like, oh, I got to stay here because it's guaranteed money. Like, I'd rather better myself and see how much I can run it up. Hell, yeah. Tyler Perry ain't going to forget that you quit on them, either.

Hey, you all right, tough of motherfuckers, he giving away money, too. He's going to be sitting up and just like this. You're going to bring the deal out. All right. And I think that's something that, you know, I promote that all the time. You know, when I graduated, I went to get a job where I did my internship at, and they told me you'd be making $6.25 an hour part-time. I was like, shit.

You know, I've always been a hustler. I've been making my own money for a long time. So I told myself I'd much rather be broke and struggling and building my own legacy than be broken and struggling, hoping somebody recognized the work ethic and giving me a shot to move up. So I think a lot of us at HBCU specifically have a fear because, we don't have too many examples that are there that have done it, you know what I mean? That really, you know, you got people that are telling you

follow the instructions of what you're supposed to do. Get this degree, get a job, and, you know, pay loans for the rest of your life. And it's like to see you guys as entrepreneurs that came from black schools. And then, you know, your story sounds super successful. So did you have any pitfalls? Like, man, did we?

There's so many. When we started? I mean, you know, you got stuff from when we were in business, like manufacturers running off on us, you know, $10,000, $20,000 here and there. The club? Bro. I mean, you got like, just not really,

because in entrepreneurship, you really don't understand how to do certain things until you get into that field. So we had 30 employees at one point, and I didn't know. I'm just a kid from, you know, Houston, Texas, and then we get 30 employees. I'm trying to figure out how to manage people

and, you know, HR and then all of this different stuff. And then, you know, just random stuff happened here and there that we just weren't prepared for. You don't know what you don't know. And so until it happens, then you be like, oh, I need to learn this. I think one of the biggest things that we were wearing into was last year, right before Black Friday. Oh, yeah. Like, probably like a month before Black Friday, we had just got all our inventory in.

Atlanta, it like rained like seven days straight. I don't know what was going on. It rained so much. Our whole warehouse flooded. We lost like $30,000 worth of the merchandise. Mind you, right before Black Friday, and most of that stuff I came from overseas. That's a month process, two-month process. Mind you, during COVID.

We don't. when shipping was even longer because of COVID. And so that day, we said we fed up with this place. We ended up getting rid of the inventory and buying a warehouse like a day later and ended up moving. And then Black Friday, we had our first million dollar week. Y'all keep running it up on their head. Do y'all get support from black colleges?

Oh, yeah, all the time. And we support them like outside of just like, donations because anytime we sell something with a school logo, they get 7% of the sale. That's dope as hell. Hey, y'all doing this shit right. Yeah, y'all doing that shit right, for real.

Yeah, so we do that, but then also, like, for instance, we talk about, like, we try to help recruit the basketball players to the schools. So, like, all the time recruits, they're, like, hitting us up, like, hey, what do you think about the school? I'm like, go. If it's an HBCU, go. And the coaches are, like, you know, put me in contact.

We're just trying to help everybody. Like, we're trying to get our people back. I don't know if you could do that shit. I just so, what's my man named to play for the jazz. He had on, I think he had on one of the Dodman Mitchell. He was like one of the jackets.

Yeah, we're in HBCC. There's a lot of players and so most people don't, well, some people know like we have a real close relationship with Chris Paul. Yeah, I was just about to say that. Chris is a good dude. So he started this thing during the Indiana.

Winston-Salem, too, Winston-Selt and State and the world. And he's actually enrolled in Winston-State. Yeah. So, you know, he's doing his thing and he has a class with Harvard and A&T. He's doing a lot of work. that people don't know.

Facts. Oh, I know about it. I'm familiar. During, when they came back from COVID and they played in the bubble, he did this sneaker tour with us where basically every week or every game he would have

a different HBC on his shoe. And so we was feeding him information and sending a merchandise to match that HBCU. So he might have on some blue, light blue and white shoes with a Spelman T-shirt and then we would make him a graphic

that says, Spelman College was founded and sell ourselves up and we did the whole tour and then players like Jason Tatum, Zion Williams, and Donovan Mitchell, all these guys are like, hey, where you're getting this stuff?

stuff from. And he really just put the whole NBA on, which end up leading us to Atlanta. We had the All-Star game here last year. And they hit us up. Like, I see what you've been doing with Chris Paul. Like, I want you to be a part of the NBA All-Star game. And we literally gave all the merch to the players and did a whole HBCU segment. It was extremely amazing. But Chris Paul was the reason why that happened. For sure. A little to Chris. Yes. Thank you. And look, man. You know exactly where the trap is, man. And you know we fuck me. You look at this. I don't even know what school this is.

You know, but, like, are you guys thinking about expanding into, you know, you have a lot of us that support a lot of high-end brands. Yeah. You know, a lot of high-end stuff, you know, paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for, you know, clothes that are made for European whitening. You know what I mean? So they're going to hear this and be like, like, cunit me for me. Yeah, exactly. So have you guys ever thought about venturing into some high-end stuff? I mean, still with the brand or are you thinking of just separating and making some higher and stuff with the infrastructure that you built is amazing.

Yeah, no, that's one thing we've been thinking about. Since we got all the data from our customers, now we can expand into any type of avenue as long as it's in that realm. So we're thinking about something like called the Black Ivy League and then doing, you know, high-end type of pieces. So that's something we've been thinking about for sure. All the way. All the way, that's smart. You know what I mean? That's smart.

Like, do you guys, being as though I'm thinking that this year, the homecomings are probably going to be a little, but they're going to be back. You know what I mean? They might not be all the way back. But, like, have you guys ever thought about doing a campaign that specifically geared towards HBCU homecomings? Like, stuff that's, you know what I mean, that's, you know, involved with the brand. But I just say that because, you know, if you go to these homecomings, which we've been to, I went to an HBCU, but we didn't perform the damn long. Yeah. Everyone.

We see, like, just how the culture of HBCU is specifically during that weekend. So, like, do you think that putting something together for each school? You know what I mean? And maybe putting it like to where people post, you know what I mean, what they got on and what they're doing. Like, I think that would be dope for y'all to do just because you already got the infrastructure and just, you know, making homecoming pieces like, you know what I mean? And maybe a competition or something because, you know, we all go back and forth. Right.

which one is the greatest. You know what I mean? Personally, I got to give it to A&T because I've been to Howard. Pretty solid. I've been to Howard. I'm a D.C. nigga, I grew up around Howard, and then Howard is more

you know what I mean. Like you says to Ivy League home. You come out there. You ain't got on a mink, nigga. You just ain't looking at you. But the A&T is that the motherfuckers out there taking shots with the police. You got Darren hosting

everything. Yeah, man. Yeah. But that's the thing. Those people, that's what I mean about the homecoming is because every school has their darons and their chikos or BDOTs and these people who are imprinted on the campus that, you know what I mean, host everything and bring the culture to the campus. And each generation has that person. So you guys, you know, tapping in with those people, man, is brilliant for y'all. This is extremely important.

And luckily, we had built, like, like BDai and my mom used to babysit Bidat when he was younger. So I went for a long time. Darren, because one of my guys, Matt Summers, he's at Alpha A&T, he used to host everything with Darren. And so they kind of went in there while we was there. He started hosting everything. So it kind of just brought together. But last year with COVID, we was like, how can we help the HBCUs? That's where they make a lot of money.

It's homecoming. All the people on campus. And so what we did, we did a virtual homecoming, actually. And so we had Darren and a Pretty V host. And then we had two chains, mulatto, Money Bagel, Black Joe stuff, R&Nics. We got a lineup all out of pocket. I spent $500,000. Got all of them together, and it was no funding.

Nobody picked us up to stream. We reached out to BET. You reached out to everybody. Nobody picked us up. And we ended up, you know, we actually won two awards. We won a Webby and another award for online performances or something like that. I didn't even know those things existed. We gave money to the HBCs.

We gave scholarships, and we just let the community feel that we were still supporting them. So we're going to do something like that again this year. And then every year we do a home comment tour, too. We're trying to hit 20 schools this year. We always hit A&T, Winston, Howard, Fammu, and Hampton. But now we're trying to hit like 16 to 20 schools. And we're going to show up, do a pop-up and educate the people, sell some merchandise, have some fun.
