And Kellogg's contacted me, and I think they're gonna do it. -Wait. I thought I was in on that. I was gonna be -- I was gonna -- -Yeah, no. -Alright. Alright. -Yeah, but if you want to be in on any of these, you let me know. -Alright, I've got -- -I'll get you in. -I've got a little bit of seed money, a couple hundred bucks. -Alright, ready? And tell me if they're just awful ideas. -Okay. -Crest Bed Strips. -So it would whiten your bed? -No. They're stickers that you put on your bed that smell like lavender. -Oh, so you would, like, lie in bed, you would put them on the bed, and then your sweat would dissolve them or something like that? -No. Like, it's -- -Alright. -Like, you'd go to a hotel. You're traveling. You take out these Crest Bed Strips. You peel it off and you put it under your pillow, and now it's a lavender enjoyment. -Which relaxes you and puts you -- -I also -- 'Cause it came from a different idea I had called Yogaroma, where it's for yoga mats. -Yeah. -'Cause who wants to be on a stinky yoga mat? -Exactly. -You just put the sticker on it. It smells like lavender or whatever smell you enjoy. -Yeah. That's a great -- I mean, I hope Procter & Gamble is watching. -Crest Bed -- you think that could be something? -That could be something. There's something there. -Alright, here's an idea for little girls who eventually want -- if they need cellphones. -Okay. -Like, almost like those Jitterbugs. What are those ones called that only have like two buttons on them? -Yeah, I think so. -One can call mom and dad. -Right. Yep. -They're called Shell Phones. And they're like a shell, like a mermaid shell. -And then they just -- -Yeah, it's, like, a cute mermaid shell. It could be pink, purple, whatever. -And it's a cellphone. -It's a working cellphone with two buttons. You call mom and you call grandma or whatever. -That has -- There's a lot of promise there. -Shell Phone. -Yeah. Yeah. Shell Phone. I like that. -Right? -I like that idea. -For little girls? -You got anything else? -Yeah. I got one. Quest, you might hate this one, but you might like it, too. It is called Hey DJ app. -Okay. -It's an app. -Okay. -Alright? Check this out. So -- Tariq, why are you already laughing? These are all -- So far, he's impressed. This is Guy Raz. He doesn't mess around. So, here's the deal. So, if you go to a club where they have the Hey DJ in the window of the club or whatever, if you have this app, you can find out what music the deejay has and you can make your own playlist of what you want to hear or request. And then the deejay can see the popularity and what music -- What's that?! -Oh, no. -The deejay can see what people want to hear. It makes your job easier. -No. Why don't you just deejay? -Yeah. -What?! I don't have time to deejay. -Okay, well, then stop making requests then. -With the app, I don't have to deal with the riffraff like that, you know? He can have his opinion. I don't ever have to hear from him ever again. Alright. -Yeah. -Maybe that's not my best thing. Oh, here's something I think you might like. -Okay. -It's another app. It's called Activate, okay? -Alright. Here's what you do. You type in a zip code of where you're traveling to or where you are, and it will tell you what charitable work you can do in that area. -I love that, 'cause there are like millions of retired people in the country. -Right. -There's all this wisdom that is untapped. So you could imagine people typing that in and then being matched up, you know, with somebody and volunteering and teaching -- -An organization or someone that needs help. -Yeah, that's a great idea. -Like, I think I should talk to Billy Gates. -Yeah. I call him Billy, 'cause we're -- -Do you know him? -Yeah, we play around together. But Bill Gates would do that, right? -I think so. Maybe. -He's a real charitable dude. -He might fund that, yeah. -So, out of those, I had three decent ones. Questlove wasn't into the deejay app, but it's fine. -I think the Crest Bed Strips will work. -Right? -Yeah, I think so. -Instead of spraying lavender or oils, you can take a sticker. You put it on. You take it off. -And you take it off or it can dissolve. -What is the one question that everyone always asks you? -Can I have money? -They want to borrow money? -They want to borrow money. -Oh, my gosh. -But, really, I mean, I think a lot of people -- you know, they want to know, how do you take an idea and translate it into a business, right? 'Cause a lot of people have great ideas. I mean, you have all these ideas. The question is -- how do you turn that, how do you execute and turn that into an idea? And that is a challenge. I mean, you have to be willing to figure out how to withstand rejection and accept failure. And, most importantly -- You know, a lot of the people on the show, whether it's Sara Blakely or Howard Schultz or Mark Cuban, these people do not have massive egos. They have figured out how to push their egos aside and how to accept rejection and failure and deal with it. And if you can figure out how to push your ego aside, you can build an incredible business. -I love you, buddy. Guy Raz, everybody.
