Mature Enough to Admit I Don’t Know Sh*t
In this raw and hilarious episode of Vendor Chronicles, Q the Messager opens up by reflecting on what it's like to grab a shaft every day—because, as he puts it, "I was born that way." He and Shane the Brain break into a soulful rendition of “Joy and Pain,” trading bars on sunshine and rain while peeling back layers of life’s deeper lessons.
Shane drops some real wisdom about realizing he doesn’t know much—and Q calls that the ultimate sign of maturity. Together, they dig into the idea that every job should be temporary, breaking down how the horse willing to carry the heavy load always gets it. If you want something done? Give it to the busy person.
Q shares stories from his time as a field engineer in Nebraska, while Shane describes a moment of exceptional customer service that blew his mind. They even question just how free we really are in a world that forces parents to send their kids to school or risk jail time.
Sprinkled throughout are sharp reflections on knowledge, power, and action—with a quote from Aristotle landing right in Shane’s lap. This one’s introspective, off-the-cuff, and full of grown-man perspective.
