"Either you play in this new world or you don't. But sitting on your f***ing chair complaining about it isn't going to get you anywhere."
-Gary Vaynerchuk
If you've been paying attention to my posts lately, you know that last month I launched Unplugged with Brandon Steiner. I have had the incredible opportunity to interview some amazing people so far across the full spectrum of business, sports and beyond, like Shaquille O'Neal, Marie Forleo, Mark Cuban, Alex Rodriguez and many others.

In this episode we discuss:

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
