NFTs are floating in popularity. This is a technology that will
never change the way people interact. So it is happening whether you
understand it and like it or not. You have now joined Jenny from the
blockchain and Michael Keane on the NFT catcher podcast.
What's up everyone and welcome back to another episode of the NFT catcher
podcast with me, Jenny from the blockchain and my co-host Michael Keane. For
today's episode, this is a fun one. This is going to be kind of a
behind the scenes of the doodles grand opening preview. So first of all, I'm
excited to share my experience at the doodles camp grand opening preview in
Chicago as a doodles partner. You guys probably know from previous episodes
that I was selected to be a content creator for the event. And by the time this
episode comes out, all three of my vlogs will be up on Twitter or X whatever
you want to call it at Jennifer underscore pseudo. And this episode is going
to be a nice more in-depth version. So the videos are great, capturing the
visual experience of it. But the podcast is a great way to kind of just
really go into depth on everything that happened. All the people I met, you
know, just how the whole experience went down. So yeah, excited to jump right
into it. And Michael is here, by the way, I know
when he talked a lot of the time. But I can't wait to hear all about this.
I saw first vlog you dropped about an hour ago. And it looked like a real
party. Good vibes. A lot of people I know. So I can't wait to hear all about it.
Oh, yeah, there's a lot of OG holders. I mean, this was an exclusive to OG
holders. So a lot of people I knew and recognized. And a lot of new faces as
well, there's a lot of anonymous people still in the space. So it was cool to
be able to connect, you know, people's Twitter handles to their to their
in real life identity and everything. So nice. But okay, let's jump right
into it. I laid it in Chicago. Oh, Wednesday night. I'm actually still here.
And I met up with Luke from flow that night, which was cool. Um, he's
the he's community for flow, a huge part of flow. A lot of flow. Dapper
people were also at the event as well. Since, you know, doodles, doodles,
two is on flow, as you guys probably know. But not much happen Wednesday.
Thursday was really the big day. That's the day where everything happened.
And today we're recording Friday night. So everything's pretty fresh. Um,
but I did take some notes here because there is a lot to go over. So basically
six PM was when like the ribbon cutting ceremony was going to happen and the
whole walkthrough of the camp experience, etc, etc. But from 12 to five,
it was kind of like open for like a media and inch loads or walkthrough for
like local and national press. So my sister and I decided to go early,
just to kind of check it out before the official like doodle holder, you know,
event started. And we got there probably around 230, which was nice.
So then I could, you know, kind of some content without it being like crowded.
And basically, let me first say what I wore. You guys already know I was decked
out in my doodles with my doodles jacket custom doodles jacket that I painted
on the back says Jenny from the blockchain. The workers got a kick out of it.
They thought it was so funny. I was rocking my shoes. Obviously the custom
doodle kicks, but the hand painted, you know, doodle and everything.
So I was fully decked out. I even had pink shirt yellow fanny pack.
Like I was rocking those pastel colors. I was really, I feel like a fangirl.
Honestly, like, especially going there in the beginning and there were really
like doodle holders. There was just like press and like just more.
I don't know. Like people that were not all there.
So I felt so like, oh my god, I'm just like a fangirl right now.
But yeah, it was funny. So when you first walk into the first of all camp,
it's like this big buildled thing that is like, it's kind of like see through.
It was like made of glass. So it's really cool.
And when you first go in, the first thing you see is the store.
So it wasn't just like all doodle stuff there.
It was like, they've done things for a little mermaid and just a bunch of Disney
things and stuff like that. So there was other type of things you could buy.
But there was also whole doodles section.
And I did pick up some things, you know, while it wasn't crowded.
And they had a lot of new merch too, which, which they also on the website
dropped as well. So if people weren't able to make it to the event,
they could order stuff online. They have like plushie now.
They had I bought a puzzle. I bought iron on patches.
I bought a deck of cards. And then there was a bunch of like kids stuff.
Like kids backpack, kids, magnetic tiles, kids, markers.
And then there was like the vinyl figurines, which were new to.
And so it was cool. There was a lot of, I mean, it was kind of some of the stuff
kidder to kids, but some of the stuff was, was definitely like kidder to adults as
well. And then I was able to also go through the whole experience early as well,
which was really nice. And it was cute because there was these twin boys
that were maybe like four years old. Um, that were there.
And they, and it was like cool, like seeing them kind of experience
everything because it is definitely catered to like families,
like kids and their parents. And I mean, it's for adults too.
But it's like, you know, it's definitely a fun thing for families.
So yeah, so that was cool to see them kind of experience all this stuff.
But man, once you got in, so after you get into the store,
there is kind of like this bookshelf and it's like, oh, a secret hidden door,
right? And then it, you push it and you go into the whole experience.
And that's where like there's just so much going on.
You just know that they had, they put a lot of time and effort into this.
Julian was even saying like this was a year in the making. Uh, and so yeah,
this was quite the process. But before I share that because I'll,
I'll get back to that in a second. Um, I also had a chance to talk with Julian,
who is the CEO of doodles. We had him on the pod. We'll check out that episode.
If you missed it. Yeah, he was very excited. He, he said he brought his kids
to the experience and they loved it. And, and he was one that was telling me,
you know, this is, people are going to think this is just for kids,
but it's really not. It's really for, for the parents too.
And it's for people to have shared experiences together. And I liked that.
It was, it was very fun. Like I think there's not enough things that are really fun
for adults. And I think I've said this before too, like doodles is great at
creating fun experiences for adults. And it's funny because on Twitter,
I saw some video of basically the camp workers are actors.
So they're very like animated and like, you know, they're just above and beyond
their extra because it's like, they're literally actors. And it was just funny
because people were like, why? What are, this is supposed to be for adults.
Why are they acting all like cheesy and cringey? I'm like, that's just their
actors and they're like playing into the experience. But it was fun.
Like, yeah, I guess the context seeing it online, maybe it looks cheesy,
but it was seriously really fun in person. And I love when people play in the
stuff, like, it just makes it more, it just makes it more fun. But let's see.
So I ended up leading that around four and then coming back for the actual,
like, grand opening at 6 p.m. We got there literally right at 6. And there was a long line,
like around the building of just holders, like, waiting to get in. But it was cool.
There was a lot of people we recognized, NFT bar, who we had on the show as well.
He was there with his wife, who she never really co-servant. So it was cool to see her and
meet her. I saw the picture that you doxed, you doxed them, you doxed her.
No, wait, is she not dogs? I don't know. I never see her picture before. And I listen
every day and he talks about her. And I follow her and I never see her picture. I'm just saying,
you label, you label it and everything. Hey, I'm just saying. I did. Well, she had a big smile.
She knew it was further vlog. Yeah, she was, I as like, oh, hey, do you want to be my vlog?
Like, anyone, I didn't just start filling them. Yeah.
Like, unless they're in the background, I know, I like, do you want to be my vlog?
And some people said no, like, somebody who was like, no, actually a couple of people,
they're like, no, I don't want to, like, I'm not dogs. So I'm like, oh, okay, like, no deal.
Oh, really? It's funny. Yeah, yeah, for sure. That's fun.
But yeah, there's definitely, there were definitely people that, like I said, they were not dogs online.
So you doxed her to me, miss out of teabark, you doxed her to me.
Yeah, I will know, because she never goes to events. Like, I'm pretty sure that's for some
things. Yeah, yeah. Right. I think yeah. But yeah. And then, and she was carrying these cookies
that I had seen online. And who was it? Uh, uh, dude, babe. So he made hundreds of cookies.
And he brought them individual cookies, like, with the, the doodle mascot on them.
He brought a whole suitcase. Like, I saw him in line. I was filming the whole line.
And then I saw him. And he's like, hey, like, I know you. And then he asked me if I wanted a cookie.
And he pulled it out of his giant suitcase. Like, he literally brought like a whole suitcase.
It was so funny. Oh, my gosh. He made them. He made all of them for everybody there. And so
anyway, his NFC miss NFC bar misses NFC bark. She had a cookie and I was like, oh,
a lot of people would assign the cookie guy. And so happy I started sounding. And, um,
I asked him, well, it's like, how long do these things last? Cause I'm just trying to frame it.
And keep it forever. He's like, um, I don't know. Like, well, I guess we'll see if it gets moldy.
Like, I'm just, I'm not going to eat this. I'm just going to literally keep it and display it
in my apartment. Cause yeah, I am, I just love keeping doodle stuff. So anyway, who else did I mean?
And like, oh, yeah, sanding y'all. Um, she was really awesome. Met her. I've known her
aligned for a while. So that was cool to meet her person. Harold Hughes met him in line. Um,
and yeah, there's ran into a bunch of people. Finally, they let us in. Mushy was, you know,
the guy at the door, letting everybody in. Mushy's, um, basically the community manager for doodles.
And he also had little, I think a hundred mushy pins. So his, uh, doodle is like, I don't,
I hope I don't describe her wrong, but it's like the duck, the yellow duck. And he made a bunch of
pins with like, as if it was the duck's birthday, like with like birthday balloon and birthday hat.
And, um, like, if you wanted one, the like, the secret code to tell him what was happy birthday.
And I don't know. I guess it's like a running joke that it's Mushy's birthday. Like,
everybody always just says happy birthday to him, even though it's not his birthday. So yeah,
I ended up getting one of those pins. And that was cool. A lot of people like made their own
things or like they had stickers. They had, you know, their own kind of swag, which I,
that was awesome. Like I always love seeing people make their own stuff. Um, and I had to shout out,
uh, sticker dude who, who hooked it up. I mean, I ordered a bunch of stickers from them.
And I was giving them out. So yeah, it's, it's always nice having stickers or some type of
something to be able to give to people to kind of be like, oh, you know, remember me? Here's my
sticker. But okay. So then, yeah, once we all got inside the camp store, everybody got like a
badge and then their hand got stamped and they also got a wristband. That once you got inside,
you can scan it on things and like your little doodle that you made will be displayed. So people
got different stamps that indicated when they were allowed to go into the experience. That way,
it was kind of like sectioned out so that everybody wasn't going in at once. But you can kind of
go in in groups. I think every seven minutes or so, like they let a new group of people in.
So yeah, while we're waiting to go in, it was just fun being able to mingle with people. I saw
one of the other content creators that got the gig and uh, Murray Lurkin. He was there like doing
interviews with people. And I ran into a bunch of, I ran into cryer and Mrs. Cryer and they both had
the, uh, the doodle pendants, which were super cool. I've been meaning to get one of those of
like their custom doodle who else. Oh, juicy cat day. Saw them there. Oh yeah, right before everybody
was allowed to start going in in their groups, there was a whole ribbon cutting ceremony. So
basically, this is where, you know, Julian, CEO of doodles, burnt toes, artists and co-founder of
doodles, McKenzie, whose like kind of like experiences events was there. And then somebody from
representing hand was there and Bianca, who is marketing for doodles. And they all just kind of stood
there and, and Julian was kind of giving a speech about, you know, how this has been a year in the
making. And, you know, they're excited for all of us to be here and all of us to kind of be the
first ones to see what this experience is about. And this is something that is going to be here in
Chicago for months. And yeah, they're excited to kind of show what, what they've been working on.
And, and so, and that was cool. And then also they announced the main characters, their names.
So basically the names of like the main doodle mascot and the cat are hap and mellow,
uh, which is really cute. They did a whole like reveal with like a, uh, uh, red, what is it called?
Like a red velvet cloth. They like unveiled it and they're like hap and mellow and they were like,
whoa, yeah, I like cheering. All excited. And then they killed out this, this long ribbon. And then
they used these giant scissors, which I thought was hilarious. And they like cut the ribbon, you know.
And, uh, and they were just cheering and recording. And I mean, they had like,
special photographers there and stuff like capturing the whole thing too. And it felt very like
exclusive and like really cool. I would say trying to think of how many people were there.
I feel like there were probably around a hundred or so. It wasn't like crazy. Like there were like,
you know, hundreds of people like it was, it felt intimate, but also like that there was a solid
amount of people there to where you can, you can keep walking around and talking to people and you
wouldn't run out of people at the top too. So that was fun. And then yeah, after the whole ribbon
cutting, they started letting people go inside in groups. And when you first go in, basically,
there's these different camp employees that I told you before are actors. And they first let
you into this small section where they, they show this like animation of hap basically like
creating inventions and stuff. And then all of a sudden, he gets sucked into this rainbow portal.
And they're like, ha, oh my god, what happened? Oh, okay. I know what to do guys. Let's follow,
you know, let's go into a studio and see if we can solve the problem. And so then, you know,
they take us into this next room where we create basically our doodle twos. So if you guys do
remember when they came out with doodle twos and, you know, all the wearables that are on flow.
So they kind of did that. But, you know, there were some already, there were some wearables,
you can already select. And then as you go through the experience, as you tap your doodad,
your bracelet on the different, you know, areas within the whole experience, you can basically earn
more wearables to be able to unlock to put on your doodle to character. So that was kind of,
that was kind of the whole point of it, which was cool. You know, you can kind of collect wearables
in a way. So, okay. So yeah, so you go into his haps studio and, you know, then the actor kind of
bringing me through it is still like, you know, talking about stuff. Like, my gosh, let's pull this
lever. Let's press these buttons and everyone's kind of doing all these things together, which
just makes it really fun because it's kind of like a group experience. And everyone's all excited.
And it looks really cool. And the lights are blaring. And like, you know, there's like Sarah's going
on and stuff. And it's cool. And then finally, like, they pull the lever and, oh, the next thing opens,
oh, the portal and ramble portal open. Let's all go inside. And so you follow along in the little
ramble portal, you go in and bam, now you're, you're able to see everything. And there is so much
to do and so much to see. So once you're inside, there's a lot of different things you can do. One of
them, it is personally my favorite was the ball pin in it, which is so cool because how do I often do
you as an adult get to jump into a ball pit? Like, never, you never get to do that. So that was
really cool. And obviously, kids like, that'll be fun for kids too. But let me tell you, it was fun
jumping into the ball pit. And yeah, a lot of people, a lot of people jumped in. It was awesome.
There was also this, I do not know how to describe this, but like kind of like this
rainbow wall that you kind of like run up and you have to tap your, your due dad, your bracelet
onto it to kind of like unlock another wearable. And so yeah, a lot of people were like running up
and and I didn't want to crease my kicks, not gonna lie. So I did not do it. But yeah, it was fun.
And I was like recording a bunch of people running up. It was funny. One guy, like kind of like
fell to it. It is kind of hard. Like you run up like you need to be careful when you're running down.
Otherwise, you will trip them all. So, so that was funny to watch people do. And then they had a
whole slide. There's a, these ram, this rainbow staircase that leads up to the slide. You can go
down. They had this interactive, uh, basically this wall that this, this animation was being projected
onto and you can throw like hacky sacks at the wall and you and the animation is showing like
these dudes walking by and they're in black and white and they look kind of sad. And then you
hit them with the hacky sack and they like color up and and you know, it's like all of a sudden
and you like splatter them with rainbow and they're like, you know, excited another rainbow color.
If you hit it enough, you, you light up the whole city and it, it, it turns rainbow. So that was
really cool. There was also a basketball hoop. You can, you know, shoot some baskets which I love,
I love playing basketball. So that was fun. Um, and then there was also like a kind of like the lounge
room where there was like these giant cloud bean bags. You could just chill on and, and just kind of
hang out and all the while like the lighting in there is really cool. Like the lights are changing
and the different like rooms have different colored lightings and I mean everything is super
colorful. Obviously like everything is just like rainbow pastel and you know, there's cool sounds
and every time you tap your due dad bracelet on, you know, something that you can activate like it
makes a cool sound and it'll display whatever your, your doodle to yet that you've been working on
like it'll display it on there and then there's these little, um, basically kind of like iPads
in the center of the room and you can go there and you can, you know, as you kind of unlock more
wearables, you can change what your doodle to character is wearing and then as you go to, you know,
tap your doodad to activate it'll it'll show the updated version and then what else? Oh TGID
was the other content creator crew that was there. Um, and that is chef Tony and dude lifts and they
were both they had a whole setup where they were recording a Twitter space so they were live on
Twitter spaces talking about the whole experience also, you know, interviewing some people there
and then they're also recording it as well. So there's a fool like I think hour long
YouTube video and I didn't even know they were recording so embarrassing because you can just see
me in the freaking live stream my jacket and I'm like hovering like the guys and all you see is my
jacket for like a solid minute and I'm like, oh my gosh, I like felt bad that I, because after that
I went I was like, wait, what's this camera doing here and I look and it's like recording. I'm like,
oh, right, I was in their way. That's the ace. But yeah, that was cool. And then there was like a
craft section. There was so many sections. There was a craft arts and craft section you can make
and then there was also like a game room and there was like this game that was kind of similar to
flappy bird and it was really hard. Um, and then there was another one similar to
galley color or something like that. Um, so yeah, so that was cool. There was a lot of a lot to do,
a lot of different things that you can kind of do once you were in there and and you could kind of,
I mean, my sister and I were just kind of staying as long as we could. But then eventually they
child like push you out and they're like, hey, let's go look at the wall of, you know, doodles and
and then there's this hallway of like all these pictures and images and and then that's where they
try to shuffle you out so they can get the next group of people in. So yeah, that was the inside
experience. Also, I did a decent job explaining all that, but you did a great job. I saw some,
I watched the window. Go ahead. Oh, okay. Yeah, as you say, I watched a bunch of videos. So I kind
of got a bit of a feel, but I really felt like I was there with your walkthrough. So that was really
good. Oh, let's go. Is there anything that you like want to add that you feel like I missed
the salt line? Um, that well, what was there about the slide? Tell me about the, someone said the
slide was pretty fast. It was like a big slide or was that the wall you run up? No, the wall
you run up, that was different. There, there was a slide, although I will say if you're a kid,
you probably go faster, like having long, I had nothing to have long legs. I'm only five two, but
I don't know. I think I think I was sliding down it wrong because I didn't really go that fast,
but the guy was yelling like, like, lift your legs up, like, you'll go faster. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I think my shoes were like stopping me from going fast. But yeah, it was a fun little slide. You
can go down. Cool. Yeah, look, yeah, what else did I want to, so you said that's going to be
there for months and months. They say exactly how long? So I actually, let me actually check the
website because I think it'll say like how long you buy tickets out. Was this a camp installation
before doodles or was this like a brand new setup? Yeah. So first of all, you can buy tickets all
the way up until mid October. So tickets are 28 to 36 dollars, depending on when you buy them.
And yeah, anybody can buy the tickets. This isn't just for doodle holders, like the grand opening
preview was just for doodle holders, but starting starting on the 19th, August 19th, it's open to
the public. So anybody can go there, anybody can buy tickets, anybody can bring their family
and experience this just like I just did. And but yeah, camp has been there. Like the whole building
has already been there. They've done, you know, multiple other activations, you know, like I was
saying Disney, Little Mermaid, Mickey and friends and down though, like there's a bunch of ones. And
there's camps all around the US. So there's there's obviously the camp in Chicago, but there's one in
Brooklyn, Boston, Dallas, Atlanta, New York, LA. So yeah, and we don't know if if doodles is also
going to be, you know, having these camp activations at some of the other locations,
we just know that it's happening in Chicago and it's going to be, you know, at least until
mid October. But yeah, we'll see what happens. I mean, I don't know what's going to happen,
but I would imagine if things go well, you know, maybe they'll happen in other cities as well. So,
but yeah, I wouldn't encourage people to go out like go to Chicago because that was a cool experience,
especially if you have kids. I mean, yeah, I was even thinking of my niece and nephew because
I'm like, oh, it'd be so fun to bring them here. Like they would love it. And even good photo
ops too. I was telling my sister, I'm like, this is the stuff that people come to just to take like
Instagram photos of, you know, how they have like those like, what is it called? Like literally
museums catered to people just. I went to something like that. It was called like the ice cream
museum. And it was always like, yeah, but those ones are a low key kind of lane. Like these ones
actually like really cool. Like, uh, and even like they had these big snails that you could just
get on and like sit on them and take photos and stuff. Like it was so funny. There was so many like
funny, cool things. And yeah, definitely great. I mean, I had to go out with good photos too. Like
great photo opportunities. But yeah. And then so once I exited the experience, it kind of takes you
back out into the store. And you know, once we exited, Mashi was there waiting to get everybody
a poster, which was really cool. And my sister got one for me as well. So yeah, we got got some
posters from the event. And then he was telling everyone like, Hey, there's a community meetup
happening at Earl's like, you know, right down the street. If you guys want to go to that. So
my sister and I just kind of touch base back at the hotel, dropped off our stuff. And then we went
to Earl's, which I was kind of like, Oh, like, I don't think anyone's going to like be here. Like,
but it was pop it like it was like they basically rented out the whole restaurant because everybody on
the inside, I don't know if the outside was running out. But the inside like, there was like
doodle balloons everywhere. And like, it was like, yeah, all doodle holders in there. And like
the doodle team and camp team and something like that. Or I think, I don't know if you're sure
a camp team, but yeah, doodle team and everyone bird toast was there, which I've I've met him before
and I actually met his twin brother. And I was telling him that I have a twin sister. But she
wasn't there the last time I met him, which was at the doodle putt event. And my sister's actually never
been to any doodle events at all. So this was her first one ever going to. And and she was like,
this was so cool. Like she was like, she was really like blown away by it. And and I got to introduce
her to the print toast. And I got to tell him, Oh, this is my way. And like, I met your twin last
time. So that was cool. Yeah, bird toast is awesome. He's he's very like humble and like kind of shy.
And then who else is there? I mean, every I felt like everybody was there. That was out the actual
event. I mean, from the doodle scene, like Julian Austin McKenzie, they were all there too. And then
oh, one thing that was actually really funny that happened at the community meetup at Earl's was
as I was saying earlier, it's kind of like an inside joke that, oh, it's always mushy birthday. And
like everyone just says, happy birthday to him. And like I said, he made the the mushy pins like
with his is doodle like celebrating a birthday, right? And to get one, you had to say code dole.
Well, people like organized the the server to come out with a birthday cake and have everybody
seeing. So the server comes out with like a little birthday cake and a candle can just cause
and deliver it to the machine. And he's so confused. He's like, what? And then I will start singing
literally the whole I have it on the third vlog that I posted. I haven't recorded. But everyone's
like seeing him happy birthday. And then this guy was like in the video, I captured this too. But he's
like, wait, so how old are you now? And she's like, it's not even my birthday. And it was just
funny because it's like, it's not even his birthday. But everyone just thought it was so funny to
bring him a whole cake. But yeah. And then another thing that I got at the community meetup
that was really cool was, so this guy, Eiler, I hope I'm saying his name right. But he's 3D printed
a bunch of mini doodle heads with tiny arms and legs. And it's literally the size of like half
of my thumb basically. And I have a small thumb like it's tiny. And it's so cool because it's 3D
printed. And he had brought, I want to say hundreds, maybe a hundred or two hundred of them.
And he like just gave them to anybody that wanted one. And he was just giving him out. So I have
this really cool like tiny little doodle head with like arms and legs. So that was dope.
How you been? Oh yeah. Juicy Cat Bay was there. Got a chance to talk to Cat for a bit. And she
was actually saying that because everyone's like, Oh, what's the next event? What's the next event?
And permission list is happening in September in Austin, Texas. And Julian is actually speaking
there. So if anyone is kind of interested in, I don't think there's any doodles that happening.
But I just know Julian is speaking at that. But yeah, that's kind of the next event. I don't know
if I'm going to go out of that or not. We'll see who might be at a festival. But yeah, I don't think
what else amazing, amazing. Well, let's, I want to let you think about what else, but I have a
minor, I have a surprise and idea. We've been talking about something for a long, long time.
Do you have access to blare.io right now? Yes.
Let me go to the site. I'm here. Help me find a doodle.
Wow, let's go. It's a good time. It's been too long coming. I think I know the one. But I want
you to look at like the first like pattern 15. Oh, first time or 15. I'm like,
no, just to buy one and pick one that you think would be good. Yeah, no, I didn't assume you
were going to buy like, yeah, I'm sweeping. Oh my god, there's a purple hair. Why?
I know, I know which one I think I like. I know which one I think I like. Really?
Yeah. Wait, can I guess which one you think you like? Yeah, that's what I want you to do.
That's what I want you to do. Oh, this is hard. Okay, my first guess is 3882.
It's just not bad, but I'm not sure the bulk cut. The bulk cut's not my favorite.
Okay, well, then maybe you're a mullet guy. Okay. Um, oh, okay, not the mullet guy. Okay,
that's okay. Maybe I'm a little, maybe I don't even know what I'm looking at. Let's keep going,
though. Keep seeing it. See what you think. I'm second guessing myself. One, four or two, eh?
No, I'm not a, I'm not a face mask guy. Man, I am so bad. I'm guessing these for you. What about
801, the first one that's there? It's not terrible. It's kind of cool. It'd be nice to just
snag the floor one nice and easy. It's kind of cool. The one I'm looking at right now is 1445.
Is that a boy though? Oh, it's kind of cool. It's got the earring. My, my A pattern earring.
So it's not the worst thing. That's kind of cool, right? Yeah. Yeah, you like it not really.
You're not. No, I like that one. I do like that one. I like the glasses because if I buy it now,
we could put it on the, uh, the logo for this episode. Oh, it's not. He looks good, right?
The glasses are good. Is that a boy? Yeah, it's a boy. Yeah, 100% of the boy. The hunter is that.
Okay. That was looking down a little bit like. So let me just make sure there's not one
that I don't like to cigarette. I don't want to do the hard eyes because that looks too much like
here. Is that be a weirdo? You're a little weird. Uh, what about the one below? But you don't
like the mullets, huh? I do like the green hair. That is a good one. That's a good one. Or,
or the one above the purple hair, the, that one, that one's tan like you. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good one.
And I like, but it doesn't have a, let's see that one or the one would be perfect if it didn't have
that pearl earring, which isn't like the earring. I don't, I don't dislike it. It's kind of cool.
Oh, Andy said that one. I was going to suggest three, eight, seven, six,
where we have three, eight, seven, six. Okay. That's what Andy thinks. Dan. Oh, that's sunny. That's
yes. Yeah. Yeah. I like the background there. I like that color background with like the fade
in the background. I'll be like eight, eight, five, three. Or you probably don't want to match
puffer jackets with me. Let's say, probably not. But he doesn't have a wallet. Now he's a good one.
He's a good one. Yeah. Yeah. That's a good doodle. Like, doodles got to look. Some of them are weird,
like those weird beards would like to put on my stash above them. Beards. Yeah. Yeah.
Now, not my fame. Now your style. Let me see. All right. We're doing this too long. I'm pretty sure
I'm going to do one, four, four, five. I think that's the one I vibe with. I like that peach color.
What do you think? You like it? Yeah. Yeah. Let's do it. Let's do this right now.
Congratulations on your doodles experience. Yes. Another live version. The last one this big was the
cool cat. And that was like four years ago. I was like, I was almost two years ago.
All right. Wow. It's going through right now. Yes. It is official blur.
Watch it. It'll come and it'll be like this one is a lot because it was stolen.
Don't say that. I know. I don't think it will. I don't think it will. Yeah. You're finally.
We have literally been talking. This is my first ever doodle. We've been talking about you.
Well, well over. And finally, you are pulling the trigger. I know. We love talking about it.
Probably in early 2021, 2021 or late 2021, because I was talking about it when it was like three
and then it went to like 25. Oh my gosh. Remember it went from like three to 25 and like three
weeks in January of 2021. That was crazy. Yeah. That was crazy. And every week, I was like,
oh, well, I missed it now. But now, yeah, definitely. I mean, a great time. Yeah. I know the doodle.
New author. The bad new owner of a doodle. Can I send it to my vault? I'll let me give it. Let me get
it. Let it sit for all I will. I'll let it sit for a second. I'll let it sit. Look at it. Go.
2700 rarity. Not terrible. Not terrible. Well, that is exciting. Yeah. There's a two and a quarter
each floor on my, on my jacket. This guy's nice. I like this. I like it. I like it. Wait, what?
I have to look at the jacket again. The jacket is a pink and green jacket with the
drawstrings. Oh, nice. Yeah. This is good. I'm very happy. Very happy. That's awesome.
Raglan had had owned this before twice. Oh, twice. Yeah. Of course. Raglan owned this twice,
five months ago, and he was flipping them. It sold for 11, 8 a year ago, 11.8. Wow.
Wait, so were you planning this like before? Yeah. I was planning this. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. You
didn't tell me about that. No, but I didn't. I like the surprise though. Yeah. I figured might as
well as a good time to celebrate and do something cool and to celebrate your accomplishment and
being able to go do that. So yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And yeah, congrats. You guys will see it. If you're on
Spotify or Apple or I think for the any of the other major streaming platforms, it'll be the
cover art of this specific episode. So yeah, you're, you know, I guess you'll see it before we
even like, you'll be like, wait, in the beginning, like, wondering like, what is that? Why do I have
a doodle? They were all some of the people. And you won't know until the end. There will be something
like crypto journal, like some people will know. They'll be like, why is the doodle on the cover?
We'll raise that. Yeah. Yeah. That's funny. Yeah. Well, okay. I just want to say,
Azure for Minder. First of all, this was great to really recap the experience and talk about
everything that went down. I am still in Chicago. The public opening is tomorrow. I think I'm going
to actually go and kind of stop by and and see what that's like. So maybe be on the next episode.
I'll let you guys know if I do end up going to that. But yeah, today I spent all day really just
editing my vlogs. It's been a lot of fun. Be living the experience through the footage as well.
If you guys want to see the visual version, it's also nice to follow along. Maybe even especially
after listening to this to go and see everything that I kind of put together. They're just two
minute, two minute vlogs, about three of them out on my Twitter. So check that out. But yeah,
this has been a blast. I mean, doodles always throws. I have always said this, but doodles always
throws the best events like I always seem there to go such above and beyond really utilizing the
IP and just really creating that like brand story and they're just so doing such a great job.
And I'm very happy to be a holder. And I'm glad that you're a holder now too.
But yeah, I just made it a Julian. It is. I just treated Julian when token when utility
because I'm a holder now. So now my cousin to start fighting. No, my gosh.
Now we're going to pump the bags. This thing will be a penny and then you're guaranteed.
Gah, run, teed, market down, still cold, mortal life, right in and stone.
Then these are jokes for legal reasons. This is these are jelly. Diamond hand, diamond hand,
sweep the floor. Well, now you have to go to the Chicago event. Yeah, I did.
At some point is there to October. I would love to bring one of my kids up there.
The holders get in free with their children. Holders get up to six tickets that they can claim for
free. Wow. Interesting. So you can yeah, so bring all your kids. Bring all three of them.
Bring on. Yeah, bring on. And your wife. Yeah, I would need her if I'm dragging all three of them
to Chicago. Chicago is nice. You do any like walking on Michigan Avenue or anything.
Honestly, I haven't done much. Amaro is kind of my like three day where I'm going to kind of explore
the city a bit. I mean, crypto novo. She, she ended up messaging me saying, oh, I'm not going
to the doodles event, but. But yeah, we had him on the parties on the last episode and he was
recommending some spots for me to check out. And he was even saying that the bean, I guess,
is closing down in for a year or something. So I definitely want to, you know, take a picture
before they renovate that. Yeah, no, like I said, I'll probably check out the doodles experience
again and stuff. And oh, and another thing is he would shout out to Burry Lurkin because he
put together a bunch of community events outside of, you know, the whole holder grand opening.
He did, first of all, a bunch of doodles got together for the Cubs game today. They did.
That's cool. Yeah, they did like a whole boat ride today. And then yesterday before the the
ribbon cutting, I think it was at like four or something, they did like mini goal. So he had
submitted like a proposal to the incubator, like to kind of organize some of these events because
he's a local. And, and yeah, he did an amazing job putting everything together like kind of last
minute. Unfortunately, I did not go to any of them, but a lot of people went to those and
everyone said great things about it. So yeah, shout out to Burry Lurkin for a really light kind of.
What is it? Burry Lurkin? Burry Lurkin. That's his using it. And he's super cool too.
You know where that probably came from. You know, there's a baseball player that he used to play back
in the 90s called Burry Lurkin. Oh, okay, that one. If I had to guess, this guy's probably from
Cincinnati. If I had to guess. Maybe, well, I know he's a local. So I don't know if, well, maybe
originally he's from Cincinnati. Yeah, shout out to Dude Lifts who just followed me back on.
Hey, yeah, so Dude Lifts, it's part of TGID and Dude Lifts and Chef Tony. They were the ones like
doing the whole live stream and the Twitter space at the actual, like they literally had a little
set up in the experience. So that was really cool. Like them just doing it on the spot lies.
I love that. So yeah. And then I met Chef Tony too at the community meetup and he was really
cool. Yeah, it's always fun meeting people on person. That's always a... And even though it's
sometimes you'd be like, wait, who are you? And then you have to look at their Twitter and then
you're like, oh, I know you. Yeah, it's always kind of in the beginning if you've never seen someone
before and they're like, hey, I'm blah blah. You're like, wait, let me look at your Twitter because
I need a link to your PFP to your name to be able to remember some of that. But yeah, okay, I think
that's it. I think we wrapped it. I think we really recaps the whole, um, Dude Lifts experience,
grand opening, checking out you guys, anybody can go like I said earlier. You can get tickets.
Let's see, at camp.com slash doodles, all the info's on the site. You can buy it merch on,
you can buy it merch online too. Yeah. Yeah, you can buy it on the camp website and on the
doodleshop, actually, I was gonna get some shirts for many, some refuse because they have like
kids stuff. I was like, oh, they love like doodle shirts because they know about my doodle. Like they
they know about the doodles events a little bit, a little bit here and there. They're obviously
really young. But yeah, so check that out and let us know. Let me know. DM me on Twitter. If you do
end up going to camp, I would love to share what you guys think about it. Thank you all for listening
