I have two guests on, and these guys are brothers. The first, his name is Seth Bolt, and he is in a band called Need to Breathe. And then also his younger brother, Chandler Bolt. So these two brothers have joined together, and they have a book that they have written, which is called Breaking Out of a Broken System. I've got them here today, both Seth and Chandler.
Guys, thanks for being on the show. Thanks for the amazing intro. It's a pleasure to be here. So first of all, tell me, why did you guys, why did you go about writing this book?

Yeah. And basically the book, what we did is we took the things that our parents taught us. We took these 15 lessons that they taught us. And Seth and I both wrote separate accounts. So Seth wrote his account as a musician. I wrote mine as a business guy.
