Hey, I'm Ryan Reynolds. Recently, I asked Mint Mobile's legal team if big wireless companies are allowed to raise prices due to inflation. They said yes. And then when I asked if raising prices technically violates those onerous two-year contracts, they said, what the f*** are you talking about, you insane Hollywood a**hole?
So to recap, we're cutting the price of Mint Unlimited from $30 a month to just $15 a month. Give it a try at mintmobile.com slash switch.
$45 upfront payment equivalent to $15 per month. New customers on first three-month plan only. Taxes and fees extra. Speeds lower above 40 gigabytes in details.
I think it's a great way to start when you're running a company and also to do every aspect of the business when you run a company. To not just be doing what you want to do, but to actually grind it out, you know, in every field. You know, I would go like probably like twice a month even for six months before I even could get a meeting with them. It's pretty competitive.
So yeah, a small brand like me, it's hard sometimes to get these meetings.
All right, guys. Got Meta here today from You and I Tequila. Brought a lovely bottle. Thanks for coming on.
Thank you. Thank you for having me, Sean. Absolutely. Excited to be in Vegas.
Tequila's my favorite drink.
That's my favorite, too. Tequila and red wine. That's all I drink.
