Alex Neist - Building a Brand That People Care About
Alex Neist the founder and CEO of Hostage Tape - a mouth tape company that helps people reduce snoring and sleep better.
Mouth taping at night might seem crazy, but our bodies are built to breathe through our noses. Research suggests that many people breathe through their mouths while sleeping, which increases the risk of sleep apnea and other health issues. By applying a flexible and breathable piece of tape, you can prevent mouth breathing and potentially decrease these complications.
In this conversation, we talk about how Alex built the company that has grown to $50M+ in sales and having sponsorships with the UFC and Joe Rogan in only 3 years.

I see #1, at the same time my mind is asking how long I keep my eyes closed then oh I see number 1. Can you have image and voice? I also feel my thoughts. I'm here rn trying to weigh the option of anti depressants. I'm scared they'll quiet too much.
I have internal monolog, forcing my self to see an apple I keep talking about it in my head but see no apple so number 5
Us Mexicans accept you my catholic brother ✝️🇲🇽
Its a bunch of bs....if you dont believe you can do it you wont see an apple. Everyone sees darkness when they close their eyes. But not everyone has faith in their own imagination. And the power of suggestion will convince a whole lot of people that they done have an inner eye because they will try it once, see darkness, and then automatically count themselves out. This is mind control on a massive scale.
No and 5 but it feels normal to me because I’ve never known and never will know how it feels like to have an inner monologue and picture in your head.
I saw the image first so I assume that the data from my vision is still fresh that’s why I see a red apple in my mind. It’s like seeing Jesus on a white wall 😂
I saw a mix of 1 and 2. If I'm rushed to imagine something I see 2, but if I'm daydreaming and in control of the time I see 1.🤔
I hear no monologue in my head. Nor can I see an Apple at all. Not even a shape. I just know what things are conceptually
Yes and like a 0. I seen the apple and had a samurai cut it perfectly in two way
I do have an inner monologue. I have been looking for a long time to find another person with similar to my experiences. I have 2 types of inner monologue. One i control. The other is entirely out of my control but acts as a teacher, a therapist, a friend and sometimes not so much of a friend. Often it will be mean and convince me to act in a certain way. It often blows my mind because it's manipulation will have in the end had some unforeseeable impact that works too my benefit. It's incredibly interesting and i can't find another example anywhere. It started off training me. It was extremely mean and cruel and would go on that way until i broke and further. Then when i can't take it no more the voice would suddenly become really nice for a couple hours. Show me incredible things i never thought possible. It was like magic back then. One day it told me to do something and it would end. I did and the voice has been mostly under control since.
Your last question comes with an na Neither. It's an apple, i can at times see so clearly i believe it's better than 1080. Normally not so much.
these guys swivel too much in their comfy chairs
You have an Inner Monologue as soon as you say " I see...." and than your start thinking about what an apple looks like
It's actually the other way around 30 - 50% Don't have an Inner Monologue
Great interview. This deserves more views.
thanks for watching!
I just thought it was normal. I have it, but it’s me speaking inward, not some strange other person inside me scenario.
Where in my head should I be seeing the Apple,
I have inner monologue but I cant see images its completely dark.
Yes and 1
Cool , i went to Philippines in 1985 and been in asia ever since 🇦🇺 🇰🇭
I learned it when I was 10 and I want it too end Its constantly talking and I don’t know how to stop it
Alcohol
I have multiple inner monologues going on in my head at once sometimes. For example, I can make my narrator voice say whatever I want while thinking about something else. Like, while I'm typing this I have my louder voice reading out what I'm typing, while my quieter voice is saying what I'm genuienly thinking. One, I can control if I choose, the other constantly goes.
Bednarek is a beautiful soul and talented gifted runner and being
4, I think yeah I have an internal monologues
1. I have internal dialogue. I’ve never told anyone this but I named my internal dialogue voice when I was little. “that boy”. When I talked myself into doing something and got caught I’d say “that boy did it”
1
Sorry... ITS SUPPOSE TO BE A MONOLOGUE? Mono like in single?
No, a lot of people do "dialogue", as well.
It's fascinating to think how differently we experience life. For me the answer is number 5, I see absolutely nothing in my mind. I get the concept though because I do have visual dreams. I'm just totally unable to do it when I'm awake. I also don't have an inner voice or hear music or anything inside my head. My thoughts are some sort of quiet impulses, it's hard to describe. And it's usually very easy for me to empty my mind and think about absolutely nothing. I've recently realized that many people meditate for years and years to achieve something like this. Although I feel I'm sort of missing out, I think that my world is a very peaceful and serene place.
This is the closest thing to my experience . I hear and see nothing. Just a kind of conceptual thinking. I think in sentences but it’s as though I am actually talking using my throat muscles to sound out the words silently.
5 nothing
I just see darkness..?
1. No 2. Nothing (5)
In my head i have Steven Spielberg with the Dangeoun Food narrator voice in my head non-stop (From the second I wake up I, that stupid narrator in my head won't stop creating movies script)💀 and I can easily imagine 3D object in my mind and how they can interact.
Yes and 1

Am I supposed to see an Apple in my head or with my eyes while their closed as if they were open
Epic interview man, well done
thanks man! appreciate you listening 🙏
So the Paradox is; Desirability emerges from Either Scarcity or Mimicry … Or both? Because Scarcity exists in nature of human existence and human also exists together… Now, People desire Bitcoin to go to moon because Everyone wants it go to moon ( Herd Instinct or Collective euphoria) OR It will Go to moon because of it’s Scarcity because its never be more than 21million and it is predestined to go it moon. So that’s why people desire it.
I do.. most of the time unless I actually try to be more “here”! And the Apple this is a weird question cause I see nothing with my eyes but somehow see the Apple clear as day.. hard to explain Kinda like I hear myself but don’t really hear!!

Very deep and important message for all of us. Good bless you. ❤️
Thanks for watching! Agree that its something we all need to be much more aware of.
I see them all if i want
I do have a internal monologue going on in my head I saw nothing when I tried to visualize an apple
50% of people don't know they have an inner dialogue. It's just dim. Just like if I asked someone to draw a picture of a person some will draw a stick. Figure others will draw photo realistic. We're all drawing from memory.
You know ur done when u laugh from the joke ur monologe voice said
they must be like drones/ robots , reptillians, clones, and we wonder why there are so many godless people in the world. That number probably increased after the magic potion shot was released as well.
I have adhd so literally the monologue goes at the speed of light and changes topic even faster, hard to keep up, but yes for me it NEVER stops
As a fellow ADHD certified member. I can confirm this statement is correct 👏😂🫡
"How would you feel if you had no breakfast" god damn did that question kill me. 😹
can't lie - that one threw me for a loop in the moment haha
I see a #2 lol, i have an internal monologue.
I have an internal monologue but I see #3. I’ve never been the best at visual imagination.
