Here it is, what, one year since I went and shot this show.

I still need time from this to recover.

Hey to all my friends out there that have heard

or seen the current videos out there going about me talking about my experience with Undercover Billionaire,

Discovery, The Crew.

Just want to make a couple things really, really clear to everybody.

I've stated many, many times this was the best and worst experience of my lifetime.

I'm with my little girl right now.

She's doing homework.

So in between social studies,

she might pop in and ask me about the Shang dynasty here in a second.

And I'll do my best to answer her,

which will probably be incorrect.

So first of all, I want to tell you.

What happened to the Han dynasty?

I don't know.

I think it lasted a long time,

like 600 years or so.

But you go do the homework.

I've already done that.

I already passed that test.

So for all of you that either have seen or have not seen Undercover Billionaire,

first of all, I want to thank Discovery for trusting me with the freaking enormous task of doing this show.

Also the crew at TJAT Angus,

Tim Warren And the whole crew You guys that lived with me through COVID And I've said this many times

I mean the fact that we were together through COVID For what?

For 12 weeks plus the two and a half months off

That crew over there The things you guys did To get through this The testing,

people getting sick People having to jump through hoops To make this show It's unbelievable

and the money and the time and the energy that Discovery has spent,

both loading this on a linear TV as well as on the streaming app, Discovery+.

I've done over 80 interviews on this show,

trying to tell people about the importance of it.

You've heard me fight for the show,

talk about the importance of it,

talk about the economy, where it's at today,

how much people need help.

To my co-cast superstars, Monique and Elaine,

I know your experience on this show certainly was different than mine.

I have no clue what you went through.

I'm certain that it had to be extremely difficult because I know,

for me, this was the hardest single thing I've ever done in my life.

I did an interview with Lewis Howes recently,

and it opens when Lewis took a cut out of there.

We're like, I'm fighting with the crew every day.

Well, the truth is I wasn't fighting with the crew every day,

but in my mind I was.

and I tried to explain this

and maybe I went around about it the wrong way

so I take full responsibility for miscommunicating

but this was the hardest thing I've ever done in my

life I was on my own by myself I didn't pick

the crew Discovery did Discovery picked me Discovery picked the crew and I'd never shot a TV show before.

So if you haven't seen it, check out Discovery Plus.

There's 12 episodes up there right now.

You can get, I think there's five or six,

and each week they drop a new one.

But basically three people get dropped off in different cities with $100 to their name,

and their job is to build a million dollar business.

Each of us go about doing it a different way.

I am an extremely, extremely unapologetically intense human being.

When I got dropped into this thing,

I literally, you know, I went from having,

you know, everything living in my place here in Miami

and having my kids around me and support and a big staff and a lot of people to being in Pueblo,

Colorado, no support, no friends,

shooting a TV show with cameras around me with a bunch of people I don't even know their names.

Like literally, I did not know one person when I got to Pueblo, including the crew.

So each day I'm having to kind of memorize new names.

It was 15 degrees, I'm altitude sick.

And when I tell you I fought with them every day,

I didn't actually fight with them every day.

We got along great.

These are relationships and friends that I will have for life,

hopefully, if I haven't ruined it,

screwed it up with some of my promotion.

But you guys that shot this show with me,

Like, you guys are freaking awesome.

Unbelievable, okay?

I'm doing my best every day while I'm in Pueblo to literally get through a day and not quit.

My wife can tell you,

she's in the other room,

she can tell you every single day I wanted to quit this thing.

It was that hard.

On top of it being that hard, I'm sick.

We get stopped at 10 days.

All my momentum gets stopped.

I'm falling into this whole story about this Louis Curtis character or being broke in LA.

And I think there's a thing in acting where people become that character.

And something happened to me.

And I've said this before in some of the 80 interviews that I've done,

like something happened to me in this show where I forgot that I was Grant Cardone with a successful business,

two beautiful children, beautiful wife and marriage,

and a lot of great things around me.

And I became this guy,

this guy, this guy, this guy that shaved his head,

lost everything, and was trying to bring his family from Los Angeles out to Pueblo to start over.

I literally fell into this thing so deep that I think

that everybody for me while I was doing this was like the enemy, including the crew.

100

So you guys on the crew,

101

if you saw any of these interviews and you felt like I was trashing you or Discovery,

102

like I could not have done this without you guys.

103

Couldn't have done it without the crew,

104

Couldn't have done it without Angus.

105

Couldn't have done it without Tim.

106

Couldn't have done it without all the guys on the ground.

107

David.

108

What's the sound guy's name?

109

My buddy.

110

Trevor was there.

111

Trevor worked with me every day.

112

Brian.

113

My buddy that did the sound.

114

Golly.

115

Sound, sound, sound.

116

Anyway, all of you guys that helped me, supported me.

117

Stacey, Stacey.

118

And then all the people that I'm forgetting right now.

119

All the people that I met in Pueblo,

120

like Antoine, Matt, Ryan Zabukovic,

121

Ryan McWilliams that wouldn't, like,

122

there's so many great relationships I made there.

123

And then I come back, we get stopped.

124

I don't know that I'm going back to do it.

125

Okay.

126

Of all the people that shot this show,

127

you got to remember, I started and stopped.

128

And I did not know for two and a half months if we were going to go back and finish.

129

And when Discovery called and said,

130

hey you ready to go back?

131

I think it was actually Angus with TJAT which is a cool dude said hey you want to go back?

132

I'm like no I don't want to go back.

133

I can't just I can't be jerked off on my schedule here.

134

When I leave I may never come back here.

135

Yes.

136

You know it's one thing when you get get punched in the face the first time

137

but give it about two or three months and then the same guy walks up to and says,

138

by the way, remember that last time?

139

We're gonna do it again.

140

First time's one thing, because you don't know what it feels like.

141

Second time, oh my God, it's torture.

142

Just getting ready for it.

143

So I remember when I was getting on the plane to go back,

144

I'm like, oh my God,

145

I can't go back and start this all over again.

146

Altitude sickness hit me again.

147

Boom, I go back in,

148

I get tested positive for COVID.

149

I get shut down.

150

You guys gotta watch this show.

151

And when you hear me talking negatively about anything,

152

okay, with regards to my shooting this show.

153

Glenn Stearns told me this,

154

he's like, look, you're too close to it, give it some time.

155

Here it is, what, one year since I went and shot this show,

156

I still need time from this to recover, okay?

157

This was the most emotionally,

158

emotional charged, real life experience that I have ever had that wasn't real.

159

Like it was real to me,

160

like me being Louis Curtis there,

161

struggling through this was real,

162

trying to figure out how the cameras work,

163

what happens, what's the outcome?

164

What do I need to do?

165

Am I going to hit my target?

166

Is it going to ruin my brand?

167

Like all that is real for me.

168

So again, I just want to put this video out today.

169

If you've seen anything or heard anything that says,

170

I'm not grateful for Don't confuse my enthusiasm and my passion and my conviction and my strong

171

you know, my outspokenness to mean or represent that I am not completely understanding of what Monique and Elaine went through.

172

I can't believe like I got hats off that, that they did this.

173

To the crew that went through this with me,

174

you guys are freaking phenomenal.

175

So disregard all that stuff I'm talking about,

176

fighting with you guys every day.

177

I didn't fight with you guys every day,

178

except in my own mind,

179

I was fighting with you guys,

180

just like I was the marketplace,

181

Pueblo, COVID, my own struggles,

182

my own problems, my loneliness,

183

my insecurities, I was fighting with all that.

184

And to TJAT and Discovery that put the money up to make this thing work,

185

the money, the time, the energy,

186

and took the financial risk to put this show on.

187

Hey, hats off to you guys for making some great TV

188

and giving discovery and all viewers in America and around the world.

189

I think you guys are in 19 countries now.

190

And then the courage to download and stream this app,

191

to drop an app right now at this time in the world where there's so much competition for viewership.

192

Just mad admiration for you putting at risk the money,

193

the time, the energy, and the production.

194

I can't imagine what it takes to pull that off and trusting me with those 12 weeks to produce this show.

195

If you haven't seen the show, it's Undercover Billionaire.

196

It's on discoveryplus.com, discoveryplus.com.

197

Go watch it, go learn from it,

198

and remember, when you hear me do an interview about this show,

199

hey, my job is to get you to watch that show, okay?

200

And all of what I'm experiencing might not be what other people experience,

201

but it is, in my own mind,

202

my crazy, whacked-out mind, It's what I experienced,

203

whether it was real to other people or not.

204

It was real to me because I'm a wacko.

205

OK, so again, I apologize to anybody that was upset,

206

got upset, felt felt like I diminished what you're doing or the hard work you put into this.

207

I didn't mean that.

208

I don't mean that at all.

209

OK, this was a huge undertaking for everybody.

210

But God bless.

211

Be great.

212

And remember, the American dream is alive and well.

213

Go out there.

214

Watch an undercover billionaire there.

215

Watch Elaine do it, Monique do it,

216

and watch your boy Louis Curtis do it,

217

because it will definitely change your opinion of whether the dream is real,

218

whether COVID can stop you,

219

whether or not you need money,

220

and how much time is too much time.

221

Okay, thanks.
