So I've made a few references over the past couple years to that time that the FBI
visited the studio and
I was asked not to talk about that for what I feel like are pretty obvious reasons so for years
I haven't but it turns out I am now finally able to tell that story
so
Here we are. So for those of you who don't know we have a studio here and it's in a larger building with more tenants
in it obviously. It's like an office building. It's not exactly like an office building,
but you know there's a front desk and security and all that. And I've been in this building
long enough that we have a pretty good relationship with them. So we have this one rule basically.
So there's the guy at security at the front desk. We'll call him Bob just for this. But
Bob and I have this one rule which is that if anyone ever shows up at the front desk
and asks for me that he doesn't let them in, I have to come out and meet them.
To confirm that I was expecting them and then I bring them back to our studio
So if someone just randomly shows up which you shouldn't but if they do and I don't show up at the front to meet them
Then I wasn't supposed to meet them. But if I have someone coming and I expect them I meet him outside
That's our one rule we stick to it. So in June 2020
It was pretty early in this new space that we have and it's also right around like peak COVID
So I had sent everybody home and it was just me and Andrew coming into the studio to work on
basically building furniture and making videos and recording the podcast every week.
So I got here pretty early on one of those summer mornings and I'm starting to get all my stuff settled and then there's a
knock on the door. So I open the door and
it's our front desk guy, Bob.
And Bob basically says
Hey Marques,
there's some people with badges at the front desk to see you.
I of course didn't let them in but if you would like to, they're up there.
And then he just...
walked away. And my first thought is confusion. Like what? What did I what did I do on the way
here that someone with badges would show up asking for me? I'm I'm a little concerned. I'm
not sure what to think. So there was a solid minute where I just like stood there in the doorway like,
okay, do I go up there? Or do I just stay here in the studio? Without asking who the people
with badges are.
I, eh, and then I just went up to the front.
I went up, I went up to the front desk,
and sure enough, there's three people with badges there,
and they walk right up to me,
and they all flash their badges,
just like the movies, like FBI agent this, IRS agent this,
and they're like Marques, good to see you.
We've got some questions for you about the Escobar phone.
So immediately I'm relieved, but I'm like, oh, oh.
Oh, the Escobar phone.
Oh.
Oh, because see a few months earlier,
I had published a video about the Escobar Fold.
If you guys haven't seen that video,
basically the story goes,
there's this company parading around
and selling this $400 gold folding phone,
which they're gonna use to destroy Apple and Samsung.
