Every damn episode: Kevin - “I want 50% of the company” Mark - “it’s a product, of a company” Lori - “QVC” Robert - “My dad had something similar” Daymond - “I want to license this” Barbara - “I’m out”
Its just saying its a great way to be able to put on less calories and still eating something good . When you eat a salad its going to have less calories but it doesn’t necessarily mean youre going to lose weight
Its a problem if a shark nails them for every single word.. sometimes you mean in literally and sometimes not. Everyone understands that but some sharks just want to play hard.
How hard is it to figure out that they mean it can help you lose weight but there is no guarantee??? They are not claiming you will lose weight that would be making a guarantee come on this is just common sense, if you lose 100 calories but you eat 5000 there is no way you will lose weight hence they say it's a great way TO and not that you WILL.
1:28 "Minus Cal is a great way to lose weight." 6:25 "Neither one of us claimed that if you take this product you will lose weight." I can't believe I didn't see this before. It's just that easy to get scammed.
u dumb it does makes because he states that is a great WAY to lose weight he doesn't claim that it will, everyone is different and it depends on your caloric intake, if you're eating like 3-4k calories a day you won't lose weight
Not a scam. Consuming thermogenic ingredients is a great way to go on a cut and lose weight. You can’t claim something will make you lose weight though, because someone can eat 5k calories a day, take this product and go “Why am I not losing weight??”
And it’s just that easy to be ignorant. He’s saying it’s a good way to lose weight not that you will by the product alone. But it’s a great way to maintain a diet
Also suggesting that there bar blocked and got rid of fat out of the body then them claiming later it doesn't minus calories when that was also there initial claim 😂
I love how Cuban always rolls his eyes at these kinds of products. The supplement industry can be extremely dubious with a lot of the claims their products pump out.
I love Kevin, he tried to keep it all calm in the end and didn’t want any hostility. the way he thanks them and says “go in peace”. you gotta respect it.
Kevin jumps on people for what he feels is their inappropriate financial evaluation while Mark jumps on them for developing supplements of any kind, Lori looks for heros in the making, Barbara looks for energy and attitude, and Robert is a nice guy.
@@hippobreath3703 I agree and he’s usually right. But I also hear Robert that he acts like a bully sometimes in the way he repeatedly beats everyone over the head with his point.
That’s why ur a joke. Robert is a joke too. He always tries to be sympathetic when there’s no need for it. These two were nothing more than con artists. Mark called it exactly for what it is…..a SCAM
@@woodya2842 And Robert agreed with everything that Cuban said, but he stated that he should let them finish and stop interrupting.

its actually better that way and I really hope those people dont take it personally. It's all about the products,they give business advices and they tell you right away without wasting your time. 5 business experts giving you a business lessons,its priceless.
@@afridgetoofar1818 And there's so many of these 'all-natural' weight loss bars on the market already, but you don't hear any of them are the miracle weight loss bar.

You could market it to the gender Neutral population call it ............ MINUS GENDER Drink this tea and you will no longer have any genitals they just melt away :P
@@FoxyDrew Thats his point. Saying something comes from green tea doesnt make it "green tea extract". Caffeine is in green tea, but if you take it out of green tea then its still caffeine, not "green tea extract". However it was derived from the tea. The poison in Eucalyptus plants isn't its "extract" but it is derived from it.
Green tea extract is the entire solid mass that you retain after losing the liquids. Which is NOT the same as deriving a single molecule from green tea. D*mba$$
I like how the sharks express themselves, once money is literally a non-factor in your life you’re no longer holding back on what you want to say to anybody so the real person comes out.
I think this is my fav clip of this show. I laughed so hard when it all started to crumble 😂 From Robert calling Mark's arrogance out to Mark pushing this so far that he actually got a point and Robert siding with him in the end
Im a biochemistry major and ive done a research project in uni a few years ago about the effects of tea, coffee and other natrual components. I think i know what is the molecule they are talking about and from my knowledge about similar experiments with it, it lowers the fat ratios that are absorbed by the body. It doesnt make u lose weight rather u gain less weight by eating it sounds like the same thing but its not.
For everyone attacking Mark, just remember these pitches are actually much longer. They edit the length way down for TV. Yeah, he can seem arrogant, but we're not seeing the whole exchange. We're just seeing the parts of it that the producers decided made the best TV (i.e. the most dramatic moments).
That's important. Bc Mark is annoyed that the other 4 sharks are wasting time, but to us it seemed like 60 seconds. If it was actually 15minutes on what's clearly a scam, that's certainly annoying and not worth his time.
I agree with you on the part where you said "Yeah, he can be arrogant". The rest are just excuses. If you don't like it, just don't invest. If you find a flaw with it, mention it but don't disrespect the people, it can easily be traumatic for them.
4:32 Poor guy holding his hands together because he knows how stubborn his partner is and can’t say anything without him getting offended or butt hurt!! And it was kind of funny when he said “everybody knows hhwhaatt!!?” He went full hank hill!!💀💀💀🤣🤣😭😭🤦🏽🤦🏽
Exactly, idk why but Mark irritated me here. The guy said it stops the fat from entering, its not a weight loss pill, its a fat preventative type pill. Yet Mark still can't wrap his head around that.
@@ImOlegnaOrg do you know what a consumer would think walking up to that product? Oh it stops fat entering my body, it says weight loss, let me take this too lose weight and not enter a gym and maybe workout and correct my diet. That’s what their gonna think. This product sucks and mark was 100% right.
Actually, what destroyed the pitch was when the older guy questioned marks side offhand remarks and cut off the other sharks and let mark just continue and dominate them. They couldn’t articulate anything past his point of it being just another green tea derivative. Would be if someone took out a molecule from caffeine and said it’s a new diet or energy drink/food.
Their biggest mistake is literally putting "Lose Weight" upfront but then they said they're not saying you're going to lose weight. I mean I kind of get what they're trying to say, but they presented it so poorly. Ok, it's not a guarantee that you'll lose weight, but it might help. Right? That's exactly what other supplements in this same category claim. That's what a lot of drinks claim. So at the end of the day, why invest in this start up when there are literally a bunch of these products already out there in the market that doesn't exactly "work.?" They're not offering anything new.
My answer: nothing in life is guaranteed. It's a weight loss aid. A car helps you get from A to B, but it won't take you there unless you take the wheel and operate the pedals
@@commanderkeen3787 i know what they were trying to say. But even the old man got lost when Mark asked him about the name of the product. That's why I said they didn't present it well. And I just looked them up and they're out of business which brings me to my other point: the market is saturated with these kinds of products already.
@Hutch Jordan there have been businesses that get trashed on this show, and companies that don't secure deals that went on and still managed to go forward. Their business failed because apparently the "science" they were referring to here wasn't exactly concrete. So their main claim as to why their product is different isn't true, which makes it just another product that supposedly aids in weight loss, which the market already has a lot of. Cubes can be a dick sometimes, I agree, but this product went out of business not because of what he said.
@@Jomskylark there's a reason why one of the common question the sharks ask in the show is "is there something like this already in the market?" And if there already is, they should make a good enough pitch for someone to invest in it. From sports drinks, to healthy snacks to clothing, there are a lot of products that would be similar. It's up to them to present it well. They didn't.
Muscle weighs more than fat, you can lose fat, and not lose wait, that's why they have a body fat percentage and people who are in great shape have a very low number, but aren't skinny.
@@theblackflame4002 muscle is more dense* than fat, technically still not the same thing also lets be real when ppl want to lose weight 99% of the time they want to lose fat, not muscle mass
@@ozkan576 lmao. If something is more dense, then it has to weigh more. It technically is the same thing. Density is mass/volume. A cubic inch of muscle weighs more than a cubic inch of fat.
They were so out of place. At 1:30 you see the younger guy making the claim of losing weight while the older one kept denying it till the end lol. With Mark on this one.
@@MySteamcracker I don't care about the product, it's Mark taking one piece of a statement and running off with it is what is wrong. -That's like saying exercise is a scam because you don't loose weight with exercise -Or, wearing a mask is a scam because you can still get covid -Or, don't buy food because it disappears There's a truth those statements but excluding the details which he wasn't allowing them to explain just leads to ignorance. And I'm not saying to agree with it. It's better to listen than to speak.
Mark already saw what took the other sharks forever to figure out. He’s a shark- he can speak over you if he wishes. He doesn’t need to win you- you have to win him.
Mark is a billionaire who doesn’t need to get a new business or need more money he is a true shark same kinda for Kevin they both would like a company however they know bad signs of a business at first sight almost
@@RPKD88 Your confusing arrogance because he doesn’t need this company he’s a billionaire they need him he doesn’t need them so of course he’s going to be a bit arrogant but as he worked and earned the right to do so to say it’s arrogant to force people to make decisions quickly is wrong his time could be spent making another million dollars so of course he’s not going to want to be slow and precise because his time is more precious than anyone else why build another house if you’ve got a hundred more needing to be sold unless you can build it quickly and efficiently

@@majorg6065 @sweet1 They said it blocks fat molecules, which means it reduces fat absorption artificially, muscles also contain weight. Losing fat is not equal to losing weight. It aids in the process losing weight by blocking the absorption fat molecules which add on to a lot of useless weight. The old guy had his concepts right, but mark was a rockhead who had no idea about the science behind it. This is 8th grade science right here folks... I'm sorry but your lover mark is not so bright indeed
Marks right, I’m a bodybuilder and kinesiologist and I can tell u 100% that it’s just a healthy bar, but it ain’t blocking fat or minus’ing calories or stopping calories from turning into fat lol. That’s a scam
@samuel brown if you’re inhibiting GI absorption of fat, you’re essentially doing that. It’s exactly what Orlistat does. There are several forms of lipids or fat. The two most common and most abundant in the body are triglycerides and cholesterol. Triglycerides, unlike glucose, aren’t directly used as fuel. It gets stored in the periphery. Under episodes of hypoglycemia, like during starvation or a ketogenic diet, they then become utilized as energy. In addition to this, gluconeogenesis is done on some fat and protein to try and return blood glucose levels back to normal. Cholesterol on the other hand can’t even be utilized as energy. It’s commonly used to synthesize your steroid hormones. Testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone are common examples of your steroid hormones. Also bile acids are derived from cholesterol. So best believe, any form of fat in excess of your dietary requirement is going to your periphery.
The old guy is the owner, the young guy is there for display and to look better. You can't be a "fit" supplement company and have the presenter looking like a unhealthy bald old guy with bad eye sight who's obese and looks like he's been eating mcdonalds for a couple decades, so he brought on a young fit tall blonde guy to present with him. Trying to hint that's what happens when taking Minus Cal. And I'm not sure if that young guy is co owner of the company, maybe a small part owner, or maybe just someone he hired to do the presentation with.
@@otpyg13 It would have been so boss if Mark would have told Robert, "you know what's even harder? Making $3+ Billion dollars and sitting on this side"
I was screaming for them to say that if the person was in a Calorie surplus then they won’t lose weight regardless of taking it. They should of Emphasised that it is a supplement which will help you if you are doing the other basic things right as well!
@@kevinconroy6606 a lot of people struggle to be consistent with this method of losing weight and a lot of people like the idea of there being a easier route to fat loss, so I think that may be a reason why. I wouldn’t be one of those people but I imagine there is people like that who would buy it.
@@kevinconroy6606It has a market and a purpose. It makes your deficit easier, you can eat a little more or do a little less cardio. Can also help with the intense deficit needed once your already low bf %
To be fair those 2 are exclusive of each other. They said it blocked fat and they had scientific studies to prove it. The didn't say it was a weight loss pill. If it blocks calories but you still eat wrong then now. But if you have a healthy diet and take the pills maybe you would lose 20% more weight then without them. My slogan would be boost your weight loss by 20% with _______.
@@zappyeats2579 1:29 the young man says it’s a great way to lose weight. Also at 2:58 the old man says that it throws away 100 cal of fat from the body but when Cuban tells them at 3:08 that they can’t just claim that the young man says they didn’t claim that.
@@zappyeats2579 at 2:20 the old man says that it’s a green tea extract later when mark says you said it’s a green tea extract the old man said he never makes that claim instead says it’s derived from green tea(though I don’t think it’s any different) but the old man specifically uses the word extract.
Cuban does often not give a chance for a full explanation, however it seems most often after everyone tells him to chill out and let them explain, he ends up being at least 90% right
I think Mark was right to come in the way he did. The reason because there are so many bullshit weight loss products. I think he should be allowed to call it out. I was skeptical through the pitch too.. I have been a nutrition coach for about 6 years now
He's acted like that before, but only when it's warranted. Remember a guy that says he was able to get a patent on "tech based clothing" that was really just running a charging cable or headphone wire through the seam of a hoodie. Mark lost it and called him out for filing a BS patent.
That's dumb. Weight loss supplements don't make you lose weight. They help you in the process. It still comes down to your diet and activity level. Doesn't mean that its a scam
@@giorgig4828 By that logic, Serial Killers don't kill people, they just help you with the process of dying. Still leads to death. A ton of supplement use all sorts of words to make you think a product does one thing when it really doesn't. Marketing your product as something that blocks fat insinuates someone can eat without gaining weight however here they mentioned blocking fat, helping you lose weight, not helping you lose weight, blocking calories etc. The presentation was all over the place and sketchy.
Fat actually isn’t the reason for obesity sugar is. And for the years the large sugar manufacturers have paid for studies to skew the research to say that fat is the problem.
Robert really came off like an idiot here. Mark was completely right in his criticisms and he called a bullshit artist out on their bullshit. There’s a reason why Mark is the richest shark here.
Robert is right though. His arrogance overshadows a lot of entrapenurs. Maybe it does take fat out of the body.they should not have claimed you loose weight in the beginning. So both sharks and entrapanures were wrong.
They get along really well actually. Just this pitch in particular they had a disagreement. But even in their argument, Mark says “I’m being respectful to you Robert. I won’t say what I’m thinking”
I'm guessing what they meant was that minus call would assist a person in trying to lose weight. It won't be like: eat this and sit around for a few months and you'll be skinny.
I don't know, of course, and can't even imagine but I do believe people try to pitch all kinds of stuff to wealthy people and reasonably so they can't be wealthy without the ability to chaff the BS from real potential.
7:38 That's an interesting point, guy who just watched his partner drown out there while you held your hands together and head lowered like you were praying it would all be over soon. 😂 It might've been a good idea to say that out on the floor.
@@S0L12D3 it doesn't matter. It's BS. How can you complain to Mark about how Mark never lets them finish speaking, how he never gives them a chance, and then you back out before they finish speaking?
Glad Robert finally called him out on it. A lot of times Mark just goes on a tard fueled rage tangent while making no coherent points and just starts yelling and rambling. Most of the time everyone just sits around looking awkwardly and waits till he's done. Being rich doesn't give you a free pass to act like a d*ckhead while talking over everyone.
@@willt3223 You could say ok Mark's complaints were fair but the problem is how he behaved delivering them. Mark clearly didn't want to listen and it came off as being aggressive and arrogant.
Sounds like a recipe for a law suit, diarrhea, and subject to scientific scrutiny. I'd like to seen their study. A 100 calorie reduction is so minimal it's meaningless. Green tea extract doesn't lower cholesterol in a clinically significant way.
Exactly like Mark said this is just bullshit. They claim that it can make you loose 100 when you can loose 500 plus calories going to the gym and still eat healthy. Like what’s the point of this anyways. I know he said it lowers cholesterol but damn that old guy just doesn’t know how to market his product right.
I'm surprised so few people see the nuance of 'helps lose weight'. A screwdriver HELPS you to build your ikea furniture. It doesn't do it for you. Their product is a tool. It helps you toward the result, but doesn't guarantee the result itself. Their T-shirts (and company name) are in line with their claim (fewer calory intake). The 'lose weight' text is debatable: Maybe a little misleading, but doesn't all advertising do that?
If I was the younger guy, I would have been absolutely livid at the old guy, he completely ruined the pitch! Whether its a good product or not, I don't know (probably isn't) but none of that matters if you become hostile and argumentative with the very people you are asking to invest in you. Even if they wanted to work with you at the beginning, that would change quickly when they realised how hard it would be to work with you due to your aggressive personality. Yeah Mark can be abrasive, but he kind of gets to be since he is the billionaire and YOU are asking HIM for an investment. I truly felt sorry for this young guy.
This pitch allowed for a great example of how to not let people bullshit and gaslight you... The young minus-cal partner looks so uncomfortable while his cohort talks in circles

Halfway in: “We are not claiming you will lose weight."
Their point is that it can help you lose weight but cant guarantee it. If you eat 4,000 calories losing just 100 wont result in weight loss.
Its just saying its a great way to be able to put on less calories and still eating something good . When you eat a salad its going to have less calories but it doesn’t necessarily mean youre going to lose weight
Its a problem if a shark nails them for every single word.. sometimes you mean in literally and sometimes not. Everyone understands that but some sharks just want to play hard.

How hard is it to figure out that they mean it can help you lose weight but there is no guarantee???

u dumb it does makes because he states that is a great WAY to lose weight he doesn't claim that it will, everyone is different and it depends on your caloric intake, if you're eating like 3-4k calories a day you won't lose weight
Not a scam. Consuming thermogenic ingredients is a great way to go on a cut and lose weight. You can’t claim something will make you lose weight though, because someone can eat 5k calories a day, take this product and go “Why am I not losing weight??”
To be fair working out is a great way to lose weight. But working out doesn’t actually make you lose weight lol.
And it’s just that easy to be ignorant. He’s saying it’s a good way to lose weight not that you will by the product alone. But it’s a great way to maintain a diet
Also suggesting that there bar blocked and got rid of fat out of the body then them claiming later it doesn't minus calories when that was also there initial claim 😂

Caffeine is in green tea, but if you take it out of green tea then its still caffeine, not "green tea extract". However it was derived from the tea.

Green tea extract is the entire solid mass that you retain after losing the liquids. Which is NOT the same as deriving a single molecule from green tea. D*mba$$

It doesnt make u lose weight rather u gain less weight by eating it sounds like the same thing but its not.
@@sds3841 what's the name of that molecule ?
For everyone attacking Mark, just remember these pitches are actually much longer. They edit the length way down for TV. Yeah, he can seem arrogant, but we're not seeing the whole exchange. We're just seeing the parts of it that the producers decided made the best TV (i.e. the most dramatic moments).
Maybe he has ADHD that's why he keeps interrupting others when he has something important to say. and he did, he wanted to call them out on their bs.
yeah usually its the edit but based on roberts reaction i think mark was just outta pocket this time
Yeah it usually takes an hour or more for a single pitch.
That's important. Bc Mark is annoyed that the other 4 sharks are wasting time, but to us it seemed like 60 seconds. If it was actually 15minutes on what's clearly a scam, that's certainly annoying and not worth his time.
I agree with you on the part where you said "Yeah, he can be arrogant". The rest are just excuses. If you don't like it, just don't invest. If you find a flaw with it, mention it but don't disrespect the people, it can easily be traumatic for them.

Actually, what destroyed the pitch was when the older guy questioned marks side offhand remarks and cut off the other sharks and let mark just continue and dominate them. They couldn’t articulate anything past his point of it being just another green tea derivative. Would be if someone took out a molecule from caffeine and said it’s a new diet or energy drink/food.

Their biggest mistake is literally putting "Lose Weight" upfront but then they said they're not saying you're going to lose weight. I mean I kind of get what they're trying to say, but they presented it so poorly. Ok, it's not a guarantee that you'll lose weight, but it might help. Right? That's exactly what other supplements in this same category claim. That's what a lot of drinks claim. So at the end of the day, why invest in this start up when there are literally a bunch of these products already out there in the market that doesn't exactly "work.?" They're not offering anything new.
My answer: nothing in life is guaranteed. It's a weight loss aid. A car helps you get from A to B, but it won't take you there unless you take the wheel and operate the pedals
@@commanderkeen3787 i know what they were trying to say. But even the old man got lost when Mark asked him about the name of the product. That's why I said they didn't present it well. And I just looked them up and they're out of business which brings me to my other point: the market is saturated with these kinds of products already.
@Hutch Jordan there have been businesses that get trashed on this show, and companies that don't secure deals that went on and still managed to go forward.
Their business failed because apparently the "science" they were referring to here wasn't exactly concrete. So their main claim as to why their product is different isn't true, which makes it just another product that supposedly aids in weight loss, which the market already has a lot of. Cubes can be a dick sometimes, I agree, but this product went out of business not because of what he said.
Who said they had to offer something new? This is a massive industry, if they can get their foot in the door I'm not surprised they're trying
@@Jomskylark there's a reason why one of the common question the sharks ask in the show is "is there something like this already in the market?" And if there already is, they should make a good enough pitch for someone to invest in it. From sports drinks, to healthy snacks to clothing, there are a lot of products that would be similar. It's up to them to present it well. They didn't.
“We are not claiming you will loose weight. We are claiming we are going to remove fat from your body” 😂
UPDATE: Ya savage lol
Funnily enough, those are two different things.

@@theblackflame4002 muscle is more dense* than fat, technically still not the same thing

@@ThePsychoBone Being in a calorie deficit is the only way to lose fat. It uses the body's fat as an energy reserve, thus burning fat.
@samuel brown
if you’re inhibiting GI absorption of fat, you’re essentially doing that. It’s exactly what Orlistat does.
There are several forms of lipids or fat. The two most common and most abundant in the body are triglycerides and cholesterol. Triglycerides, unlike glucose, aren’t directly used as fuel. It gets stored in the periphery. Under episodes of hypoglycemia, like during starvation or a ketogenic diet, they then become utilized as energy. In addition to this, gluconeogenesis is done on some fat and protein to try and return blood glucose levels back to normal.
Cholesterol on the other hand can’t even be utilized as energy. It’s commonly used to synthesize your steroid hormones. Testosterone, estrogen, and progesterone are common examples of your steroid hormones. Also bile acids are derived from cholesterol.
So best believe, any form of fat in excess of your dietary requirement is going to your periphery.

It helps you toward the result, but doesn't guarantee the result itself. Their T-shirts (and company name) are in line with their claim (fewer calory intake). The 'lose weight' text is debatable: Maybe a little misleading, but doesn't all advertising do that?
If I was the younger guy, I would have been absolutely livid at the old guy, he completely ruined the pitch! Whether its a good product or not, I don't know (probably isn't) but none of that matters if you become hostile and argumentative with the very people you are asking to invest in you. Even if they wanted to work with you at the beginning, that would change quickly when they realised how hard it would be to work with you due to your aggressive personality. Yeah Mark can be abrasive, but he kind of gets to be since he is the billionaire and YOU are asking HIM for an investment. I truly felt sorry for this young guy.
This pitch allowed for a great example of how to not let people bullshit and gaslight you...
The young minus-cal partner looks so uncomfortable while his cohort talks in circles
