Transcript
- 0:16Speaker 1: We are all right, as opposed to not being alive,
- 0:23Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, I don't know. No, we're live.
- 0:24Speaker 1: We're definitely, we're live.
- 0:25Speaker 2: Yeah, we're absolutely everybody and this is the best experience.
- 0:30Speaker 2: IEK you guys for tuning in and for those who
- 0:32Speaker 2: are tuned into Patreon, we appreciate it. Thank you guys
- 0:36Speaker 2: very much. But let's start off strong because we got
- 0:40Speaker 2: a couple of fan questions and you know Nick's gonna
- 0:44Speaker 2: answer them.
- 0:44Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, So the first one is is, uh, he
- 0:48Speaker 1: has a question you'd like to ask? I have them
- 0:50Speaker 1: making plans, but when it comes to execution, I sometimes
- 0:52Speaker 1: struggle to complete them. Occasionally unexpected matters disrupt my rhythm,
- 0:58Speaker 1: and at the other times I'm either too tired or
- 1:02Speaker 1: not productive enough to even finish everything. Well, yeah, it's
- 1:07Speaker 1: kind of one of those things you have to. You
- 1:10Speaker 1: make your plans, you try to execute your plans as
- 1:13Speaker 1: much as possible. There's always things are gonna disrupt everything
- 1:17Speaker 1: that you do in life. I mean, everything's going to
- 1:19Speaker 1: be that way at some point, some way, some shape
- 1:22Speaker 1: or form. You stick to the plan as much as
- 1:25Speaker 1: you absolutely can, and then you adapt to things otherwise
- 1:31Speaker 1: So if you're that exhausted to where you can't finish,
- 1:36Speaker 1: it's better to just rest one day, that's it, and
- 1:41Speaker 1: then start your rhythm back the next day. Put just
- 1:45Speaker 1: slide everything over one day and then that's begins your
- 1:48Speaker 1: new routine and that's where you start. So if you're
- 1:50Speaker 1: used to starting on a Monday, then you'd start on
- 1:52Speaker 1: a Tuesday, and then you just go through the keep
- 1:54Speaker 1: going back through the routine and try not to be
- 2:01Speaker 1: set off track again. But you're gonna do it. It's gonna happen.
- 2:05Speaker 1: Life happens. It happened to me all the time, and
- 2:09Speaker 1: I would that's exactly what I do. I'd still get
- 2:13Speaker 1: my workout for the weekend. Remember you're not going to
- 2:15Speaker 1: atrophy till day number eight or till day number ten.
- 2:19Speaker 1: So if you miss one day and it just offsets
- 2:21Speaker 1: a day, you're not really gonna lose anything. That being said,
- 2:26Speaker 1: if you're just a little tired, you have to come
- 2:29Speaker 1: and evaluate yourself on how tired you are. If you're exhausted,
- 2:35Speaker 1: not a good idea. But if you're just kind of
- 2:37Speaker 1: a little tired, you know, get a cup of coffee,
- 2:41Speaker 1: drink a little pre workout, go get it done. So
- 2:44Speaker 1: there's a difference. Hold yourself accountable. But also it doesn't
- 2:50Speaker 1: do you any good to push when you're completely exhausted,
- 2:53Speaker 1: because that's when injury comes in. Doesn't do any good though,
- 2:57Speaker 1: if you're kind of tired, but don't If you like
- 3:00Speaker 1: doing it but you still got it in there, you
- 3:03Speaker 1: got to decide whether it's there and you're just being
- 3:05Speaker 1: lazy or it's just flat out exhaustion. If you look
- 3:11Speaker 1: and go, well, i just worked like twelve thirteen hours
- 3:14Speaker 1: straight and I've been slammed. Yeah, probably not a good idea.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Take that day off and then just come back and
- 3:20Speaker 1: start everything from where it is the next day. Now,
- 3:25Speaker 1: if you worked eight hours and you're just you're not
- 3:28Speaker 1: overly tired, you're just kind of like eh, from being
- 3:31Speaker 1: at work and your mindset's not right, take thirty minutes, meditate,
- 3:37Speaker 1: Go have a cup of coffee, and go get your
- 3:39Speaker 1: work done, plain and simple. Get your mindset right, Get
- 3:43Speaker 1: in a quiet room, set your mind right, Go get
- 3:46Speaker 1: some like a little bit of coffee or a little
- 3:48Speaker 1: bit of pre workout, not too much, just a little bit,
- 3:51Speaker 1: and then go get your workout done. It's that simple.
- 3:53Speaker 1: But the only person that's going to hold you accountable
- 3:55Speaker 1: is you, and if you're having trouble holding yourself accountable,
- 4:00Speaker 1: that's the one thing you have to do. I can't
- 4:03Speaker 1: do it for you. Ben can't do it for you.
- 4:06Speaker 1: Nobody can do it for you. It's something you have
- 4:08Speaker 1: to do and examine your goals and what you want
- 4:11Speaker 1: to do and is it acceptable enough to not go
- 4:16Speaker 1: after what you were supposed to do that day? You know,
- 4:21Speaker 1: pretty plain, pretty simple. But evaluate where you're at and
- 4:24Speaker 1: if it's been a killer long day at work, yeah,
- 4:27Speaker 1: go ahead, take one extra rest day. One extra rest
- 4:29Speaker 1: day is not going to be the end of the world.
- 4:33Speaker 1: Forty extra rest days is going to be a problem.
- 4:36Speaker 1: So that's where you that's where you got to draw
- 4:40Speaker 1: the line. So pretty basic. Just evaluate whether you're truly
- 4:46Speaker 1: exhausted or whether you're just being a little bit lazy
- 4:49Speaker 1: and you just don't feel like doing it. If you're
- 4:52Speaker 1: being a little bit lazy and just don't feel like
- 4:54Speaker 1: doing it, clear your mind, drink some caffeine and go
- 4:58Speaker 1: do it. If you're truly exhausted, take the extra day rest.
- 5:02Speaker 1: It's not going to hurt you. Then the next day
- 5:05Speaker 1: start back into your cycle. Training cycle and get going. Okay,
- 5:09Speaker 1: it's just that simple.
- 5:11Speaker 2: Exactly for those who are listening the words of Nick Best.
- 5:17Speaker 2: And we got a last minute question in right before. Yes,
- 5:20Speaker 2: yea too, so we're on a roll. It's two okay.
- 5:23Speaker 1: So yesterday the guy was in the baseball game or
- 5:26Speaker 1: a person was at the baseball game, and they were
- 5:28Speaker 1: truly plused with the skills hat with the skills of
- 5:30Speaker 1: the players. Even it was such a noisy, uh distracting environment,
- 5:36Speaker 1: they were still able to perform. So well, does this
- 5:38Speaker 1: mean it requires an extraordinary level of concentration to achieve
- 5:41Speaker 1: such results? Yes, you have to kind of you have
- 5:49Speaker 1: to have your mindset right, and you have to kind
- 5:51Speaker 1: of like block everything else out when you're playing baseball
- 5:55Speaker 1: once you walk onto the field to really a professional
- 5:59Speaker 1: baseball player, the only thing that's on that field is
- 6:01Speaker 1: the baseball field. That's it. Fans in the stands or
- 6:05Speaker 1: whatever they're they're blocking it all out. They're trained to
- 6:08Speaker 1: block it out from a very early age and you
- 6:11Speaker 1: just get used to doing that. So you have to
- 6:15Speaker 1: go out there and just be like, look, this is
- 6:19Speaker 1: where my focus is. It's on this game. It's on
- 6:21Speaker 1: the pitcher it's it's on the players, it's on the catcher,
- 6:24Speaker 1: you know whatever. And when you pitches the baseball, you
- 6:28Speaker 1: focus on the baseball. You swing at the baseball. You
- 6:30Speaker 1: can't listen to the noise, you can't listen to what
- 6:32Speaker 1: everybody's saying. You can't focus on anything but the guy
- 6:35Speaker 1: pitching the baseball. And if you're the pitcher, you can't
- 6:39Speaker 1: listen to the fans, you can't listen to anything. You
- 6:41Speaker 1: just have to clear the zone and just throw the
- 6:45Speaker 1: ball to the mitt. Catcher gives you a signal where
- 6:49Speaker 1: he wants the ball to go, and then you throw
- 6:52Speaker 1: the ball at that spot. It's literally that's all you do.
- 6:56Speaker 1: That's all you focus on. So it just requires a
- 6:58Speaker 1: lot of concentration and the ability to just set everything
- 7:02Speaker 1: else around you to the side. It's like that when
- 7:04Speaker 1: you perform on TV or anything else. You can either
- 7:07Speaker 1: go oh god, I'm on TV and get like real
- 7:10Speaker 1: nervous and stuff like that, or you just be like, Okay,
- 7:13Speaker 1: well I'm on TV and nobody else is doing this,
- 7:16Speaker 1: so they can come up here and try it all
- 7:18Speaker 1: they want. I have the opportunity. I'm gonna come up
- 7:20Speaker 1: here and do the absolute best I can and not
- 7:23Speaker 1: worry about the camera or anything else. I'm just gonna
- 7:26Speaker 1: go get what I need to do done. And then
- 7:29Speaker 1: you go get it done. And then they come ask
- 7:31Speaker 1: you some questions, and you just act like it's me
- 7:34Speaker 1: talking to Ben, or me talking to you, or me
- 7:37Speaker 1: talking to anybody else. It's just a one on one
- 7:40Speaker 1: conversation that you're having, except if there's a television camera there,
- 7:43Speaker 1: and that's all you act like. You just make like
- 7:46Speaker 1: it's another person or your kid and you're sitting there
- 7:49Speaker 1: trying to talk to your child's That's kind of how
- 7:51Speaker 1: I did it. I just acted like I was trying
- 7:54Speaker 1: to talk to one of my kids when they come
- 7:56Speaker 1: up with the camera. Just that simple and not afraid
- 7:59Speaker 1: of talking to one of my kids. So it makes
- 8:01Speaker 1: it pretty easy. And that's kind of the trick I
- 8:04Speaker 1: used to be able to talk in front of like
- 8:07Speaker 1: a television camera and stuff like that, going oh my god,
- 8:09Speaker 1: this is going to four hundred and forty million people
- 8:11Speaker 1: or something like that. You don't worry about that. You
- 8:15Speaker 1: just talk to it like it's like it's one of
- 8:17Speaker 1: your kids and you'll be just fine, or it's your
- 8:19Speaker 1: best friend, or it's your mom or it's your dad.
- 8:22Speaker 1: You just go talk to it like it's a person
- 8:24Speaker 1: that you want to talk to you but you don't
- 8:26Speaker 1: want to use foul language to, and you you go
- 8:30Speaker 1: talk to them. It's just that, it's literally that's what.
- 8:34Speaker 1: Those are the techniques I use to be able to
- 8:36Speaker 1: do that.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Oh yeah, And you know one of the things even
- 8:38Speaker 2: with those techniques I've heard you say multiple times is like,
- 8:42Speaker 2: there's nothing but me and the event. Yep, and then
- 8:46Speaker 2: I can celebrate after to say, you're laser focused. I
- 8:50Speaker 2: understand what there is of just me and this and
- 8:53Speaker 2: that's all I need to concentrate on. And I've heard
- 8:55Speaker 2: you say it so many times to so many other
- 8:57Speaker 2: athletes of life. What are you paying a hit to? Why?
- 9:01Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Yeah, And then you focus
- 9:03Speaker 1: and them on that. It'll be like, look, I need
- 9:05Speaker 1: you to have a laser focus on this one thing
- 9:09Speaker 1: till it's all over. That's it. It's all you need
- 9:11Speaker 1: to do is focus on what you're doing, Put all
- 9:13Speaker 1: every every thought, all your energy, everything into this direction
- 9:18Speaker 1: moving that way, and you're going to be just fine.
- 9:20Speaker 1: And turn they go out and they perform really well
- 9:23Speaker 1: in that event. And you're just like, Okay, good, now
- 9:26Speaker 1: you can cut loose. Now you can celebrate or do
- 9:29Speaker 1: whatever you're going to do because you just did really
- 9:32Speaker 1: well on the event and then move on. It's it's
- 9:36Speaker 1: not simple, yep, you know.
- 9:38Speaker 2: And like I said, we're not trying to like even
- 9:41Speaker 2: even with people listening is understanding. Nick's trying to make
- 9:44Speaker 2: it into these small, simple, digestible things that you can
- 9:47Speaker 2: actually understand because you know, there's a lot of detail
- 9:50Speaker 2: that goes into this. But that's the thing is like
- 9:53Speaker 2: all those details, all those stop processes, all though those
- 9:57Speaker 2: those actual things that you takes years a hone and craft.
- 10:01Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, If we can help you
- 10:02Speaker 2: guys actually understand that and catch it.
- 10:05Speaker 1: And do it in far shorter time than it took
- 10:08Speaker 1: me to figure out. Yeah, that's the goal. My goal
- 10:10Speaker 1: is to save you time, to save your energy. If
- 10:13Speaker 1: I can save you ten or fifteen years in either
- 10:15Speaker 1: training or you know, mindsets and stuff like that, that's
- 10:19Speaker 1: my goal is to just save you time and give
- 10:23Speaker 1: you a little bit of my experience so that you
- 10:26Speaker 1: can do better without having to learn a lot of
- 10:28Speaker 1: these things either the hard way or just over time.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Exactly exactly. Know, it's it's very difficult. It's very hard.
- 10:35Speaker 2: But that's the thing though, it's fun, but it also
- 10:38Speaker 2: takes practice and it takes you know, dedication, you know
- 10:41Speaker 2: what I'm saying. A lot of people need to understand that.
- 10:43Speaker 2: That's like the unspoken things. You know. Mindset is one
- 10:46Speaker 2: of those words that people kind of like, oh, you know,
- 10:49Speaker 2: but it's also it's not just mindset. You got mindset,
- 10:52Speaker 2: dedication and patience, you know what I'm saying.
- 10:56Speaker 1: Because attitude there you go an attitude, I mean, you
- 11:00Speaker 1: have to want to do it. You have to have
- 11:01Speaker 1: a good attitude while doing it. You know, if you're
- 11:04Speaker 1: going there and you have a good attitude and you
- 11:05Speaker 1: go in there and do it, you got to just
- 11:07Speaker 1: do that much better. You really are positive brings positive,
- 11:11Speaker 1: negative attracts negative. So going with a good attitude, you
- 11:13Speaker 1: could be just fine. Exactly exactly.

- 11:42Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and then uh, let's get into Rogue Invitational. Okay,
- 11:47Speaker 2: a Rogue Invitational has put out their events.
- 11:50Speaker 1: Yes, all right, first.
- 11:52Speaker 2: Event, the first event, uh and as I read these off,
- 11:55Speaker 2: Nick talk about the event, talk about like you know, people,
- 12:00Speaker 2: you know, there's details that most people just know. It's heavy,
- 12:04Speaker 2: but let's talk about like what it takes to actually
- 12:08Speaker 2: move it, you know. So first event wagon wheel axle deadlift.
- 12:13Speaker 1: Yeah, do you have the other specification specifics of it?
- 12:18Speaker 2: It says three attempts to establish max weight.
- 12:22Speaker 1: To establish maxweight. Now, that's gonna be an axle deadlift,
- 12:25Speaker 1: and that's gonna be a little higher than normal. Correct, Yes,
- 12:28Speaker 1: it's gonna be what an eighteen inchtead lift.
- 12:29Speaker 2: I'm assuming an eighteen inch because it's the wagon wheels,
- 12:31Speaker 2: and as you typically.
- 12:32Speaker 1: What it is, it could be fifteen to eighteen. Okay,
- 12:35Speaker 1: so it'll be somewhere in that range. It's probably eighteen,
- 12:38Speaker 1: but could be as low as fifteen. I don't have
- 12:41Speaker 1: the specifics of the event in front of me. Yeah,
- 12:44Speaker 1: so I would say that's going to take a lot.
- 12:48Speaker 1: It's going to be harder for the taller guys for
- 12:50Speaker 1: whatever reason. That's usually a really rough place for them
- 12:54Speaker 1: to start a deadlift at. And it's supposed to be
- 12:57Speaker 1: an axle deadlift, so the bar's not going to give,
- 13:01Speaker 1: so where you're starting hard and you're pulling on it,
- 13:03Speaker 1: the bar gives, and the shorter guys be able to
- 13:06Speaker 1: sneak their knees underneath it before they pull it off
- 13:08Speaker 1: like Novlakavod or ye Wood stuff like that, they're going
- 13:15Speaker 1: to have to get all the weight from the word go,
- 13:18Speaker 1: so even for the shorter guys. But that's a good height.
- 13:23Speaker 1: I liked between fifteen and eighteen inches. It was really
- 13:27Speaker 1: good for those were good areas for me. I think
- 13:29Speaker 1: the most I did was like Ony twenty five back
- 13:32Speaker 1: in the day at the Fit Expo with that type
- 13:35Speaker 1: of lift. I think Mark Felix and I both pulled
- 13:37Speaker 1: that that day, so it was good, and then Terry
- 13:40Speaker 1: beat us both. So. But it's a good event, especially
- 13:45Speaker 1: on an axle because the bar is not going to give.
- 13:47Speaker 1: You're not gonna get any help from the bars. It's
- 13:50Speaker 1: either you to pull it or you're not going to
- 13:52Speaker 1: pull it, which you can actually pull that fast. If
- 13:56Speaker 1: you're pulling on an axle and the bar's not going
- 13:58Speaker 1: to give, you can pull on hard, just dead off
- 14:01Speaker 1: right right away, because you're not gonna have to worry
- 14:03Speaker 1: about whip on the bar. It's not gonna move, it's
- 14:05Speaker 1: not gonna jump all over the place. Yeah, you're just
- 14:08Speaker 1: gonna yank and it's gonna come right off the ground.
- 14:11Speaker 1: So it's you know, that force you put into it.
- 14:14Speaker 1: You're not gonna have to build into it and then
- 14:16Speaker 1: use the bar and get the whip from the bar.
- 14:18Speaker 1: You just gotta get into it and just pull. You
- 14:21Speaker 1: can explode into the bar, which is what the guys
- 14:23Speaker 1: are gonna have to do to get it moving. If
- 14:26Speaker 1: you do that, they're gonna be fine. Oh yeah, so
- 14:29Speaker 1: that'll be a good that'll be a good event to do.
- 14:32Speaker 1: It's good.
- 14:32Speaker 2: It's always a fun event to start with too, because
- 14:34Speaker 2: like I said, it's a spectacle. And also to the
- 14:37Speaker 2: you know, just from the list of people are gonna
- 14:38Speaker 2: be there, it's gonna be heavy polls for that Max.
- 14:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I would say you're probably gonna see somewhere between
- 14:48Speaker 1: like really high nine hundreds and possibly even as high
- 14:51Speaker 1: as eleven hundred, depending on the height of the bar
- 14:54Speaker 1: that they go to do that with. Oh yeah, that
- 14:58Speaker 1: should be pretty I think, Oh yeahs gonna be fun
- 15:02Speaker 1: to watch. I think the taller guys are going to
- 15:04Speaker 1: struggle in the shorter guys. I think Trey is going
- 15:06Speaker 1: to do really good at that. I think Evan, if
- 15:09Speaker 1: he pulls on it right, will do really will do
- 15:14Speaker 1: probably pretty darn well with that as well. Lucas Lucas
- 15:19Speaker 1: Hatton's going to do really well at that event as well. Yeah,
- 15:23Speaker 1: but in the end, I would watch out for Trey.
- 15:27Speaker 1: There you go on that one, I would watch out
- 15:29Speaker 1: for Trey.
- 15:30Speaker 2: Yeah, I would do the same.
- 15:33Speaker 1: It's a good height for Trey. I think that one's
- 15:36Speaker 1: going to be and I think he's a little motivated,
- 15:38Speaker 1: so I think that'll be a good one for him.
- 15:40Speaker 2: Exactly. Well, let's go to event too, Viking press for
- 15:44Speaker 2: Max reps in sixty seconds.
- 15:46Speaker 1: Okay, do you see the weight on it?
- 15:49Speaker 2: What it gave me is that it gave me no
- 15:50Speaker 2: way to just told me what the events are of course,
- 15:53Speaker 2: which if I had the weight, I would be giving
- 15:55Speaker 2: you to wait.
- 15:55Speaker 1: No, no, no, I know that's kind of kind of typical
- 16:00Speaker 1: or broke for any of the strong man contests, which
- 16:04Speaker 1: I have no idea why. If you want to promote
- 16:06Speaker 1: the thing, put the weights on it. That's gonna be
- 16:11Speaker 1: a good event that you're going to see a lot
- 16:13Speaker 1: of reps with with whatever weight they pick it. Trey's
- 16:20Speaker 1: ungodly good at it, Lucas is going to be ungodly
- 16:22Speaker 1: good at it. Thor should be kind of interesting on that.
- 16:31Speaker 1: He should, he should do fairly well on it. But
- 16:34Speaker 1: you got a couple of really good overhead pressers. Evan's
- 16:38Speaker 1: a really good overhead presser. It's gonna just come down
- 16:42Speaker 1: to who has the better day between like three or
- 16:44Speaker 1: four guys. But again, that's another event. I could see
- 16:48Speaker 1: Trey doing ungodly good at and as well as Lucas
- 16:51Speaker 1: Hatton because they're both great overhead pressors. And I can
- 16:55Speaker 1: see Evan doing really good on that if he comes
- 16:57Speaker 1: in under control and focused. He's so strong and just
- 17:05Speaker 1: I don't I don't even think he's even at probably
- 17:10Speaker 1: three quarters of his potential. Yeah, I think he's probably
- 17:13Speaker 1: right out about that. I mean, he can be a
- 17:15Speaker 1: lot stronger if he just slows some things down and
- 17:20Speaker 1: focuses a little more, stays explosive where he needs to,
- 17:23Speaker 1: but comes in under control. Yeah, with with better form
- 17:28Speaker 1: on things.
- 17:29Speaker 2: I man, he's yeah, I agree, I agree.
- 17:34Speaker 1: But Tom Tom's a pretty decent Viking press as well,
- 17:40Speaker 1: if memory serves correct. So it's it's it's going to
- 17:43Speaker 1: be interesting. It really is.
- 17:45Speaker 2: Oh yeah, well let's go into an event for it's
- 17:48Speaker 2: a yoke escalator, so it's going to be yoke carry
- 17:50Speaker 2: into power Stairs.
- 17:55Speaker 1: Yoke is going to be pretty interesting. I see Evan
- 17:58Speaker 1: doing really really good on this event. I also see
- 18:02Speaker 1: if mental Hooper's in this.
- 18:05Speaker 2: Yeah, really fast, you know what I'm saying. He's won
- 18:08Speaker 2: quite a few of these.
- 18:09Speaker 1: He'll be fast at both of them. Evan will be
- 18:12Speaker 1: fast at both of them. Trey will get hurt on
- 18:15Speaker 1: the Power Stairs. I think Lucas will do pretty good
- 18:20Speaker 1: on the Power Stairs, but I don't think it'll be
- 18:22Speaker 1: as fast as you know, Hooper or Evan on it.
- 18:29Speaker 1: So it's gonna be it'll be good. And then you
- 18:32Speaker 1: got Austin Andrade, which Austin will be a really good
- 18:35Speaker 1: overhead presser. Austin's gonna be really good at the deadlift.
- 18:38Speaker 1: Austin will be another one to look at in the deadlift.
- 18:40Speaker 2: Exactly.
- 18:41Speaker 1: My brain's just like starting to turn on a little
- 18:43Speaker 1: bit today. Warm Sorry, Austin, but this could be this
- 18:51Speaker 1: could come down. This could be such an even show.
- 18:54Speaker 1: It could come down to four guys, three or four
- 18:58Speaker 1: guys on the last event. Yeah, it really can. I
- 19:01Speaker 1: think the power stairs will cost Trey some points, but
- 19:06Speaker 1: the and the yoke. He's not necessarily the fastest at
- 19:09Speaker 1: the yoke, but so this will be a little bit
- 19:13Speaker 1: rougher event for Trey. But I think Hooper and Evan
- 19:17Speaker 1: and even Austin will probably do pretty solemn this. There
- 19:22Speaker 1: you go and Tom and Tom Tom, Tom will kill
- 19:26Speaker 1: the power stairs part of it. I think Tom will
- 19:28Speaker 1: do okay at the yoke, so.
- 19:31Speaker 2: At his height, the power stairs is definitely at his advantage.
- 19:33Speaker 1: Yeah, he'll just turn it on.
- 19:35Speaker 2: So all right, Well, it's going to an event four
- 19:39Speaker 2: and it's circus Press Melody.
- 19:43Speaker 1: Circus Press medally. Yes, that's all it says.
- 19:46Speaker 2: That's all it says. Say nothing more than that.
- 19:49Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, it's gonna be you know, Austin. Lucas is
- 19:57Speaker 1: ungodly good at that so it is, So's Hooper, like,
- 20:04Speaker 1: so's Trey. There's there's like five guys that are just
- 20:08Speaker 1: going to destroy this event. So it all just comes
- 20:12Speaker 1: down to who who had the most details, who simulated
- 20:17Speaker 1: this the most, the quickest, the fastest, and trained to
- 20:23Speaker 1: go from event to event to event the most efficiently,
- 20:26Speaker 1: not necessarily moving the fastest to the thing, but the
- 20:30Speaker 1: most efficient to where you're ready to pick it up
- 20:32Speaker 1: off the ground, yeah, to the next event. That's going
- 20:34Speaker 1: to be probably the telltale sign of who wins this event,
- 20:39Speaker 1: because you have five guys, four guys that can Hooper's
- 20:44Speaker 1: ungodly good, he's ungodly fast, he's in goodly efficient. Lucas
- 20:48Speaker 1: Hatton is like just stupid strong at the overhead, So's Trey,
- 20:52Speaker 1: So's Evan. So those guys can all easily win this event.
- 20:57Speaker 2: It's it. Yeah, and it's great because like I said,
- 21:01Speaker 2: it's it's just these are all lined up, yeah, and
- 21:05Speaker 2: then and then yeah, so you know what I'm saying,
- 21:09Speaker 2: it it's crazy and you know, like and I don't
- 21:12Speaker 2: even know what to make of Event five because it
- 21:13Speaker 2: says power drive.
- 21:14Speaker 1: Now do you have the list of competitors in front
- 21:16Speaker 1: of you?
- 21:17Speaker 2: I do have the list of competitors in front of me.
- 21:19Speaker 1: Okay, go ahead, run through that real fast, all right.
- 21:22Speaker 2: For strong men Tom Stultman, Trey Mitchell, hawthorpe Jornsen, uh,
- 21:29Speaker 2: Rhin O'Neill uh, the current world strongest Man, Evan Singleton,
- 21:35Speaker 2: the strongest man on Earth, Thomas Evans, Austin Andrade, Patty Hayes,
- 21:41Speaker 2: Mitchell Hooper, and Lucas Hatton.
- 21:49Speaker 1: Yeah. Like I said, it's a.
- 21:52Speaker 2: Stacked card of assassins, all right, that's that say is
- 21:56Speaker 2: it's a stacked card of champions. It's a stack card
- 22:01Speaker 2: of assassins who are fucking biting at the chop. So
- 22:04Speaker 2: like we got one that's Mitchell, Evan, four, Neil and Stoltman.
- 22:12Speaker 2: So you got you got champions. You got five champions
- 22:16Speaker 2: in this here.
- 22:18Speaker 1: Yeah. Man, that's gonna be nuts. Uh yeah. And then
- 22:24Speaker 1: you got Patty's gonna come in there and steal points, yeah,
- 22:27Speaker 1: because he's going to do better than most people thinking.
- 22:29Speaker 2: He's fast and he's got a grip on him like
- 22:32Speaker 2: ain't no tomorrow.
- 22:33Speaker 1: Right, and he'll be another one that slides into a
- 22:37Speaker 1: couple of spots on the deadlift. He'll be another one
- 22:39Speaker 1: that you know, he'll probably do pretty decent at the
- 22:42Speaker 1: yoke and the power stairs because he's so young and
- 22:46Speaker 1: so athletic. He'll yeah, he'll surprise some people on that. Yeah,
- 22:50Speaker 1: but like I said, I'll stick to where I've been
- 22:53Speaker 1: going with most of these.
- 22:54Speaker 3: Yeah, Thor will do good at the yoke, and Thorb
- 22:58Speaker 3: will do good at the.
- 22:59Speaker 2: Power stairs exactly. And everyone that we're talking about here
- 23:03Speaker 2: are are like champions in the right of like you know,
- 23:06Speaker 2: that's why it's like a top tier. Like people coming
- 23:09Speaker 2: into this right now is gonna it's gonna be a
- 23:11Speaker 2: show to watch.
- 23:12Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you know what I'm saying.
- 23:13Speaker 2: But uh, let's get into event five. No details. I'm
- 23:17Speaker 2: not sure. I'm assuming it's gonna be the bull that
- 23:19Speaker 2: they used before. I could be absolutely wrong, but it's
- 23:23Speaker 2: the power drive. It says push then pull for time.
- 23:26Speaker 1: No, I think that this will be something else, something else,
- 23:29Speaker 1: So yeah, I think it'll be something else. Uh. Yeah,
- 23:33Speaker 1: that's gonna be interesting.
- 23:35Speaker 2: Yeah, it doesn't give no more than that, So okay, yeah.
- 23:40Speaker 1: You're gonna whoever can suffer probably the hardest, the longest Yeah,
- 23:47Speaker 1: it's probably gonna do really well at this. I would
- 23:50Speaker 1: expect four with this bigger body weight. Tom bigger body
- 23:54Speaker 1: weight will probably do very good at this. This could
- 23:57Speaker 1: be something that Tom Evans does really well. Yep, and
- 24:03Speaker 1: Lucas as well. It's kind of to kind of depend
- 24:06Speaker 1: on the event itself and the the size of the
- 24:11Speaker 1: things and where you grip and stuff like that. That'll
- 24:13Speaker 1: make a difference. That it's probably gonna make the biggest difference.
- 24:17Speaker 1: And the rules on how they have to push it
- 24:19Speaker 1: and then pull it back or pull it and then
- 24:21Speaker 1: push it. It's gonna that one will be fun, because
- 24:27Speaker 1: I agree, I think that's gonna be quite miserable.
- 24:32Speaker 2: I definitely see that well. The last and final event,
- 24:35Speaker 2: it says Mons Mega are Mons Meg Stones.
- 24:40Speaker 1: Yep that you know, Thor is really really good at Stones,
- 24:47Speaker 1: Cooper super strong. It's whoever's got the most left in
- 24:51Speaker 1: them when they get to this whoever's in the best shape,
- 24:55Speaker 1: like physically, I see Patty stealing some points at this one. Yeah,
- 25:00Speaker 1: But whoever gets to this one like that's the freshest,
- 25:05Speaker 1: they're probably gonna do the best at it. Whoever's came
- 25:08Speaker 1: here ready to play and who's in shape and like
- 25:12Speaker 1: physically I'm going to tear through everything. This is gonna
- 25:15Speaker 1: be an event that they're just gonna destroy and probably
- 25:19Speaker 1: clean house with it. Yeah, it's gonna be it's gonna
- 25:24Speaker 1: be fun. Yeah, and to see who figures out what
- 25:27Speaker 1: on it, Yeah, it'll be it'll be pretty good. Thora's
- 25:31Speaker 1: good at stones. Stultan is like obnoxious at stones.
- 25:36Speaker 2: So yeah, it's yeah, you know.
- 25:40Speaker 1: So but is it the ones that they carry or
- 25:42Speaker 1: is it a medley?
- 25:43Speaker 2: It doesn't say it, just it, that's all it says.
- 25:47Speaker 2: It says right here, uh, Monds, meg stones, m O
- 25:53Speaker 2: n s and then it's m E G stones. So
- 25:57Speaker 2: I have no idea how to interpret that.
- 26:00Speaker 1: Okay, hold on, sorry.
- 26:02Speaker 2: Guys, something m O n s and then m e
- 26:11Speaker 2: G stones. So it's two words mons meg stones on
- 26:19Speaker 2: the last one.
- 26:23Speaker 1: M O N s yep, m e g h okay,
- 26:34Speaker 1: oh okay. Yeah. So these are like giant cannonballs. Okay,
- 26:44Speaker 1: but it looks like they're made out of concrete, but
- 26:46Speaker 1: they look like giant canniballs. Yeah. So like Tom's gonna
- 26:52Speaker 1: be tough to beat thor is gonna be tough to
- 26:54Speaker 1: beat whoever comes? Uh? Yeah, Well it's in Scotland too,
- 27:01Speaker 1: so yeah, there you go. But yeah, whoever comes in
- 27:07Speaker 1: this with the best conditioning and stuff like that, you
- 27:13Speaker 1: don't know what the rules are, whether they're allowed to
- 27:15Speaker 1: use taki, whether they're not allowed to use taki. That's
- 27:21Speaker 1: gonna be pretty good. If they're not allowed to use taki.
- 27:24Speaker 1: I'm gonna say Trey's gonna like destroy this. Yeah, and
- 27:29Speaker 1: I think Hooper will do pretty good at it too,
- 27:30Speaker 1: because he's been doing a lot of training without Tacky
- 27:33Speaker 1: as well. Thor is always going to be good at him,
- 27:36Speaker 1: and so it was Tom Stultman. So it's gonna be
- 27:40Speaker 1: it's going to be a fight. Like I said, I
- 27:43Speaker 1: think I think it'd come down to four guys in
- 27:46Speaker 1: the last event. Yeah, points wise, So it's gonna be
- 27:50Speaker 1: fun to watch. There we go, It really is. I'm
- 27:53Speaker 1: not going to predict a winner because it's too all
- 27:57Speaker 1: over the place. It's gonna be hard to just go,
- 27:59Speaker 1: oh this, then watch one guy come in and just
- 28:01Speaker 1: blasts blasts through everything. But right now it's it's gonna
- 28:07Speaker 1: be hard to pick because you could have a guy.
- 28:11Speaker 1: As long as you make the top three in each event,
- 28:14Speaker 1: it's all that matters. Yep, that's there's one guy that's
- 28:18Speaker 1: really good at that. That's a guy named Mitchell Hooper.
- 28:20Speaker 1: So you know, but Lucas is super strong right now.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Evan's ungodly strong right now, but his hamstring kind of
- 28:31Speaker 1: is off. So is it is it back to normal?
- 28:34Speaker 1: Is it ready for this show? Yeah, that's a question.
- 28:37Speaker 1: Thor Thor's deadlift is just obnoxious right now. So anything
- 28:42Speaker 1: that he's going to do with his lower back and
- 28:44Speaker 1: stuff like that, he's gonna He's on point because he
- 28:47Speaker 1: didn't even look wiped out after pulling five ten. So
- 28:54Speaker 1: and then Trey and Tom are both super strong, so
- 28:59Speaker 1: it's gonna kind of it's gonna be a fight. Nobody's
- 29:02Speaker 1: gonna walk through this. I don't see that, but it'll
- 29:05Speaker 1: be who gets through, who stays the healthiest, and who
- 29:08Speaker 1: makes the least amount of mistakes. And that's what happens
- 29:11Speaker 1: when he gets to the top. I mean, you get
- 29:13Speaker 1: it to the top, and whoever executes the best, it
- 29:16Speaker 1: makes the fewest amount of stakes mistakes and is willing
- 29:19Speaker 1: to hurt more than the other guys, it's usually gonna
- 29:21Speaker 1: be the guy that ends up winning. So that's it.
- 29:23Speaker 1: It's gonna be a good fight. This is gonna be
- 29:25Speaker 1: a good show.
- 29:26Speaker 2: It's gonna be a really good show. And speaking of
- 29:29Speaker 2: good shows, uh, you know we've all seen the rumblings
- 29:33Speaker 2: and hearings of Battle of the Beast.
- 29:36Speaker 1: Yeah, you know.
- 29:38Speaker 2: Eddie Hall presents Battle of the Beast is I'm assuming
- 29:42Speaker 2: a TV show, right?
- 29:43Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, it's a strong man contest TV.
- 29:46Speaker 2: Show, Yes, exactly.
- 29:48Speaker 1: So it's really neat to see Eddie do this. It
- 29:51Speaker 1: really is. Yeah, it's it's I think it's gonna be
- 29:55Speaker 1: quite amazing and people need to get out and go
- 29:58Speaker 1: watch this thing. They really do and you know, go
- 30:01Speaker 1: look at it, go watch it because it's gonna make
- 30:05Speaker 1: these guys work. He's gonna make him do a bunch
- 30:08Speaker 1: of funny stuff. So Eddie's got a sense of humor,
- 30:11Speaker 1: so it should be entertaining, to say the least. I'm
- 30:15Speaker 1: kind of looking forward to watching it.
- 30:17Speaker 2: Well, I'm just gonna give a quick shout out here
- 30:20Speaker 2: of contestants.
- 30:21Speaker 1: Okay, go ahead, So, uh.
- 30:23Speaker 2: This is gonna be pretty pretty close to the Rogue lineup,
- 30:27Speaker 2: just a few extra people in here. So first contestant
- 30:30Speaker 2: Trey Mitchell, h Mitchell Hooper, Ryan O'Neil, Gavin Bilton, Bolton,
- 30:44Speaker 2: Evan Singleton, Mark Felix, Luke Stoltman, Patty Hayes, Austin Andrade,
- 30:54Speaker 2: and Patty Odor. Yep, that's it.
- 31:04Speaker 1: Wow. Yeah, it's gonna be pretty interesting. Oh yeah, yeah,
- 31:08Speaker 1: and you got some characters in there too. You got
- 31:10Speaker 1: some people that are pretty entertaining. You're gonna see a
- 31:13Speaker 1: lot of personalities come out in this.
- 31:15Speaker 2: Oh yeah, a lot of person does. And even too
- 31:17Speaker 2: is like there's even a brief description of everything that
- 31:21Speaker 2: they're doing, because like just right off top, I'm just
- 31:23Speaker 2: gonna read it right here. It says ten of the
- 31:27Speaker 2: world ten strongest men from around the world competing in
- 31:30Speaker 2: a series of crazy challenges that will test their strength, appetite, endurance, resilience,
- 31:35Speaker 2: pain tolerance, and combat skill to determine who's the ultimate Beast.
- 31:40Speaker 1: Yeah. It's gonna be pretty entertaining. I know these food challenges.
- 31:46Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, well good luck with that, guys.
- 31:50Speaker 2: Well just so we know, so the endurance is going
- 31:54Speaker 2: to be a beach melody on the sand of Melina Bay.
- 32:00Speaker 2: Since face grueling one versus one obstacle, course of rowing, dragging, lifting,
- 32:06Speaker 2: and swimming, speed stamina will will decide who crosses the
- 32:11Speaker 2: finish line first.
- 32:13Speaker 1: Swimming.
- 32:14Speaker 2: Yes, you know what I'm saying, it's gonna be a
- 32:17Speaker 2: little different swimming. You know, I'm because all these guys
- 32:19Speaker 2: are rare, you know, pretty thick. Mm hmm.
- 32:23Speaker 1: It's good Eddie, Eddie will probably I would not be
- 32:28Speaker 1: surprised to see Eddie jump into the swimming part of that,
- 32:31Speaker 1: just for fum because it's like a shark in the water.
- 32:34Speaker 2: You can swim like, well, you know what what what
- 32:36Speaker 2: uh uh you did? Yeah, it was a swimmer. So
- 32:40Speaker 2: the next for for pain, it's gonna be a belly flop.
- 32:44Speaker 2: Contestants will launch themselves from a platform into the water.
- 32:48Speaker 2: Victory goes to the boldest and most entertaining flop.
- 32:53Speaker 1: Mm hmm.
- 32:54Speaker 2: There's gonna be some some some some big bellies and
- 32:58Speaker 2: heavy body. It's gonna be like a rock hitting that water.
- 33:02Speaker 2: So I'm definitely definitely willing and wanting to see that.
- 33:06Speaker 1: Yeah, well, Patty Paul and Felix are going to be
- 33:12Speaker 1: a disadvantage of that, and even Luke, now yeah, Luke's
- 33:16Speaker 1: pretty turned now exactly, They're not gonna have really big
- 33:19Speaker 1: bellies for the belly flop. So that's interesting. They're gonna
- 33:22Speaker 1: be a disadvantage for that exactly.
- 33:24Speaker 2: So for the resilience, it's gonna be the Hercules pillars.
- 33:29Speaker 2: For uh ross style. You know, I'm probably butchering it,
- 33:33Speaker 2: but the contestants must cling to the Hercules pillars as
- 33:36Speaker 2: long as possible. Grip, grit, and determination will separate the
- 33:40Speaker 2: strong from the broken.
- 33:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll say, unless hell freezes over or something goes wrong,
- 33:49Speaker 1: I think Felix is probably gonna do that pretty well.
- 33:53Speaker 2: Well, Rhino at you know, he let it go at
- 33:57Speaker 2: world's strongest man because he didn't know right, So you
- 34:01Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, we got you got a new
- 34:02Speaker 2: grip versus a young grip, which that might be a
- 34:05Speaker 2: factor there.
- 34:07Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 34:07Speaker 2: Well, if Felix is tried true and holds the record
- 34:12Speaker 2: in many things, you know what I'm saying.
- 34:14Speaker 1: Hooper's got a pretty good grip too, it should be
- 34:18Speaker 1: that should be fun to watch. But I see Mark
- 34:20Speaker 1: doing really well on that one.
- 34:21Speaker 2: Oh yeah, so let's go into combat. It will be
- 34:24Speaker 2: sumo wrestling. Consistence face off in a knockout sumo wrestling
- 34:30Speaker 2: tournament with a twist. Strength, balanced strategy will decide who
- 34:34Speaker 2: determines who determines the ring Dino. Mm hmm.
- 34:42Speaker 1: Yeah, that's gonna be funny. That's gonna be fun to watch.
- 34:45Speaker 2: Yep.
- 34:47Speaker 1: Fighting wise, I know Govin was was in the military, yep,
- 34:54Speaker 1: so that might be kind of interesting. Uh uh. And
- 35:03Speaker 1: then Austin's gonna be a big dude. He's gonna be hard,
- 35:06Speaker 1: he's gonna be hard to deal with. And Evan's got
- 35:08Speaker 1: a little bit of wrestling in his background too, so
- 35:11Speaker 1: that's it. It should be pretty interesting to see what
- 35:15Speaker 1: happens with that exactly. But you got Hooper being smart
- 35:19Speaker 1: and can events apart, so he'll probably take a look
- 35:23Speaker 1: at the rules and see what he can do do.
- 35:27Speaker 2: That's it. Well for strength, paying homage to Eddie Hall's
- 35:30Speaker 2: legendary five hundred kg lift, Architestas will attempt a deadlift
- 35:36Speaker 2: cage of cannonballs with the weights increasing each round.
- 35:42Speaker 1: Okay, so it's a last man's standing deadlift basic.
- 35:44Speaker 2: Yeah, that's it.
- 35:47Speaker 1: Yeah, that that should be pretty good. I mean, Evan, Austin,
- 35:51Speaker 1: Felix will hang in there for quite a while. Trey,
- 35:54Speaker 1: that'll be a good one. That'll be really good. That'll
- 35:57Speaker 1: be fun to watch, especially how he gets it set up.
- 36:00Speaker 1: And stuff like that. That'll be pretty cool. It's gonna
- 36:03Speaker 1: be a spectacle to watch. I'll tell you when things
- 36:07Speaker 1: for sure, anything to do with Eddie, it's going to
- 36:09Speaker 1: be entertaining. It's gonna be funny to watch. The guys
- 36:13Speaker 1: are going to have to figure it out. That's it.
- 36:16Speaker 2: Well, and with the final event appetite feast final event,
- 36:23Speaker 2: this eating challenge will crown the contestant with the biggest
- 36:27Speaker 2: appetite and we'll find out who's the overall winner of
- 36:30Speaker 2: Battle of the Beast.
- 36:32Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, that's uh. I wouldn't even know where to
- 36:39Speaker 1: go with that.
- 36:41Speaker 2: At all.
- 36:47Speaker 1: Uh Yeah, I wouldn't even know where to go with that,
- 36:51Speaker 1: because you'd be surprised. Some of the smaller guys probably
- 36:54Speaker 1: eat more than the bigger guys. Yeah, and then some
- 36:56Speaker 1: of the bigger guys probably don't aren't used to it.
- 37:00Speaker 1: They're eating. They're used to eating a whole bunch of meals,
- 37:03Speaker 1: not one big shot. So exactly, that one's going to
- 37:07Speaker 1: be kind of interesting, because that one's gonna end up
- 37:10Speaker 1: being painful, Yes, especially if he does it for time.
- 37:15Speaker 1: If he does it for a time when it and
- 37:17Speaker 1: they only have say like a half an hour to
- 37:19Speaker 1: eat as much as they can. Yeah, that one's gonna
- 37:22Speaker 1: get pretty nasty if he If he does like a
- 37:28Speaker 1: longer time, like an hour, that could that could be
- 37:33Speaker 1: just as bad. But I would figure he's probably gonna
- 37:37Speaker 1: it's probably go somewhere between fifteen minutes and a half
- 37:40Speaker 1: an hour. And then the guy's just gonna have to
- 37:43Speaker 1: eat everything they can eat. And does it say how
- 37:46Speaker 1: he's going to judge it.
- 37:47Speaker 2: No, it does not give us any of.
- 37:50Speaker 1: That, because i'd make him get on a scale.
- 37:54Speaker 2: Well, you know.
- 37:57Speaker 1: There's ways to cheat on that. You just drink a
- 37:59Speaker 1: whole bunch of water as well.
- 38:00Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly the food that you can, and then fill
- 38:05Speaker 3: all the empty gaps with water.
- 38:06Speaker 2: So maybe it'd be like a hot dog eating contest.
- 38:09Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, I don't know, but it's gonna be funny.
- 38:14Speaker 1: Well then I would definitely expect to see somebody vomit.
- 38:19Speaker 2: Oh yes, I agree. And for everybody who's listening, this
- 38:24Speaker 2: start uh tomorrow, which will be today when this when
- 38:28Speaker 2: the free version comes out, So this October second, October third,
- 38:33Speaker 2: October fourth, and you know what I'm saying. So it's
- 38:37Speaker 2: like you got three days, three events or not three events,
- 38:40Speaker 2: but everything's spread out amongst those three days for everyone
- 38:43Speaker 2: to be watching.
- 38:44Speaker 1: Yeah, and uh, this is gonna be pretty entertaining. Yeah,
- 38:48Speaker 1: I will be watching this.
- 38:50Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gonna be crazy.
- 38:52Speaker 1: Because I know how Eddie thinks and some things, and
- 38:54Speaker 1: it's gonna be it's gonna be funny.
- 38:59Speaker 2: Oh boys, An, that's it.
- 39:01Speaker 1: I will enjoy this thoroughly.
- 39:04Speaker 2: Well, you know, now that we've geeked out on all
- 39:07Speaker 2: the strong Man stuff, let's make a pivot herevot Yes,
- 39:12Speaker 2: the pivot, No pivot, pivot, Okay, it's pivot.
- 39:15Speaker 1: You.
- 39:16Speaker 2: Actually, we were gonna supposed to talk about the Charlie Sheen,
- 39:18Speaker 2: but guess what. I only watched half of it. I
- 39:20Speaker 2: couldn't really get through much of it today because I
- 39:22Speaker 2: was so busy. But you did watch a different movie,
- 39:25Speaker 2: and I want to hear about it.
- 39:26Speaker 1: I did. I watched The New Superman.
- 39:30Speaker 2: Well, you know, we we kind of talked about it
- 39:32Speaker 2: before because before both of us watched it, we had
- 39:35Speaker 2: a pretty good notion of what it was.
- 39:38Speaker 1: Yeah, and unfortunately it was pretty pretty along those lines.
- 39:45Speaker 2: Okay, that's why I did watch it.
- 39:47Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, the best part of the whole movie
- 39:50Speaker 1: is probably Lex luthor. Yeah, and you know, just a
- 39:57Speaker 1: guy that's supposed to be that smart and the person
- 40:02Speaker 1: that ends up really frying him in the end. Yeah.
- 40:08Speaker 1: It that part was pretty into that. That was probably
- 40:11Speaker 1: the best part of the movie for me. Yeah, but
- 40:16Speaker 1: the rest of it, kind of him being able to
- 40:19Speaker 1: kind of get beat up and stuff and yeah, yeah,
- 40:25Speaker 1: the premise about that and then the lack of kind
- 40:29Speaker 1: of the lack of respect and stuff like that because
- 40:31Speaker 1: they just feel they can the way the way they
- 40:35Speaker 1: kind of like talk to him and ask him questions
- 40:37Speaker 1: or come after him or go after the decision he
- 40:40Speaker 1: makes to save lives, and it's like, I'm trying to
- 40:43Speaker 1: save lives. Yeah, you know, that's it. I'm just trying
- 40:46Speaker 1: to save people's lives. I'm not really worried about their
- 40:48Speaker 1: governments and stuff like that. And the way they came
- 40:51Speaker 1: at him like that, I was like, oh, yeah, this.
- 40:53Speaker 2: Is a little on the little too much on the.
- 40:56Speaker 1: Nose, a little too much on the.
- 41:00Speaker 2: I don't know, and like trying to get too political.
- 41:05Speaker 2: But you got to call a spade. You got to
- 41:06Speaker 2: call a spade a spade.
- 41:07Speaker 1: Yeah, and not like kind of how they did that.
- 41:11Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, well it didn't do extremely well either,
- 41:15Speaker 2: so probably why that's.
- 41:18Speaker 1: Probably why they keep barking up the wrong tree with
- 41:21Speaker 1: a lot of these things. And this is about creating
- 41:26Speaker 1: a person that functions well. They didn't have you know,
- 41:31Speaker 1: the American way in there. Yeah, you know, true justice
- 41:34Speaker 1: in the American way wasn't in there.
- 41:36Speaker 2: And you know that's yes, and that that's a Superman standard.
- 41:42Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean that's that's everything in a nutshell for Superman.
- 41:46Speaker 1: And you know, and to make his parents look that
- 41:52Speaker 1: way was pretty awful as well, because you'll find there's
- 41:58Speaker 1: like a message from his parents and when you see
- 42:00Speaker 1: is like one half of it, and then I suppose
- 42:02Speaker 1: they unlock the other half of it and you never
- 42:05Speaker 1: really find out if it's been altered or that was
- 42:08Speaker 1: the actual other half of it was. And they actually
- 42:11Speaker 1: try to say it was authentic and stuff like that,
- 42:14Speaker 1: and it was just like it just really destroys the
- 42:19Speaker 1: whole entire Superman's story in my opinion, from what we
- 42:23Speaker 1: knew of what Superman's parents, you know, why they sent
- 42:27Speaker 1: him there. It's in all the other movies, and then
- 42:31Speaker 1: they say this or look like this in there, and
- 42:34Speaker 1: it's just yeah, it was just really really just to
- 42:38Speaker 1: the core awful.
- 42:39Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean right now, like Superman, like it's hard
- 42:45Speaker 2: and wrong.
- 42:47Speaker 1: This is Kryptonian parents not this is all fiction anyway, Yeah, but.
- 42:54Speaker 2: It is all fiction. But Superman is an American icon,
- 42:58Speaker 2: an American standard.
- 43:00Speaker 1: Well it was a comic book icon. It was the
- 43:03Speaker 1: same way all the time. Yeah, and Superman was always
- 43:06Speaker 1: true justice in the American way.
- 43:08Speaker 2: His parents are Kansas, you know what I'm saying, raised.
- 43:13Speaker 1: Raised in Kansas, crashed into Kansas and that type of stuff,
- 43:17Speaker 1: Middle America, that type of thing. And for them to
- 43:22Speaker 1: and you know, his father Darrell and stuff like that,
- 43:26Speaker 1: and you know, and all the other movies and all
- 43:29Speaker 1: the other comic books and everything else. He has messages
- 43:31Speaker 1: for his son to be a good person. We're sending
- 43:34Speaker 1: you there to help them and stuff like that, and
- 43:37Speaker 1: for them to change that is they're sending them there
- 43:40Speaker 1: to help and do stuff and then rule them.
- 43:43Speaker 2: Yes, exactly.
- 43:44Speaker 1: Not cool, not remotely cool. The guy that made this,
- 43:50Speaker 1: I think Gunn or Gwynn or whatever his name.
- 43:52Speaker 2: Is, James, I don't know if it was James Gunn
- 43:54Speaker 2: that filmed.
- 43:55Speaker 1: It, but yeah, gun filmed it. Yeah. He should just
- 44:00Speaker 1: never do DC anything again, if I was, if I
- 44:04Speaker 1: were in charge of DC, he would be completely removed
- 44:08Speaker 1: from anything because I mean that's just, yeah, just completely
- 44:14Speaker 1: against what it's supposed to be. And it's more people
- 44:17Speaker 1: trying to ruin the old kind of way of looking
- 44:24Speaker 1: at those things and just make it all turn everything
- 44:27Speaker 1: that's older into trash.
- 44:28Speaker 2: And that's exactly they're trying to turn us off on heroes.
- 44:32Speaker 1: Cool.
- 44:32Speaker 2: So no one wants a strong, a male male hero
- 44:35Speaker 2: in the in these things. But that's the thing is
- 44:36Speaker 2: that's what Superman.
- 44:38Speaker 1: Is, right, And that was you know, yeah, that was
- 44:43Speaker 1: just Yeah.
- 44:44Speaker 2: Like I said, I haven't watched it, so I definitely
- 44:46Speaker 2: can't give my opinion, but I can definitely give the
- 44:48Speaker 2: opinion on my opinion on what I hear. But let's
- 44:53Speaker 2: let's get away from the negative and let's spin it
- 44:56Speaker 2: into a positive.
- 44:58Speaker 1: Lex Luthor character is probably the best.
- 45:00Speaker 2: And any dog and the dog, yeah, you can't go
- 45:04Speaker 2: wrong with it.
- 45:04Speaker 1: And then his his the what is is his cousin
- 45:09Speaker 1: that flies in Yeah the movie Supergirl? Yeah, doing that
- 45:13Speaker 1: to her, having her flying and drunk? Are you kidding?
- 45:18Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 45:19Speaker 1: Really seriously are you kidding? Why would you? Yeah? I'm
- 45:23Speaker 1: glad I didn't pay for it to be.
- 45:26Speaker 2: And that's how it goes. Well, what I even wanted
- 45:30Speaker 2: to say was, let us spin it to a positive.
- 45:33Speaker 2: Give me your two favorite versions of Superman, because I
- 45:35Speaker 2: have my two for two.
- 45:38Speaker 1: Okay, the very first one with Christopher Reeves. It's a
- 45:41Speaker 1: great one that was pretty good. And then, uh, the
- 45:44Speaker 1: other one.
- 45:46Speaker 2: The guy that played the Winter Oh, Henry Cavill.
- 45:49Speaker 1: Heaven Cavell. Those two, yeah, probably my favorite ones.
- 45:54Speaker 2: Well, I like Henry Cavill, but Dean Kine will always
- 45:57Speaker 2: be my Superman. Okay, controversial, but that's how I feel
- 46:02Speaker 2: because I grew up watching Lois and Clark when he
- 46:05Speaker 2: was on the w B.
- 46:07Speaker 1: Right right, No, that's hey. Look, it's all what which
- 46:10Speaker 1: each individual likes to be exactly, So the original one
- 46:14Speaker 1: Christopher Reeves.
- 46:16Speaker 2: And then Henry keV. Yeah, and speaking of that, you know,
- 46:20Speaker 2: I don't know, you know, it's always internet rumors until
- 46:23Speaker 2: I actually hear it true. But you said Henry Cavill
- 46:25Speaker 2: will be playing uh duncan McLoud or the klam McLoud
- 46:28Speaker 2: coming up.
- 46:31Speaker 1: Yeah, that'll be that'll be cool. If they they're gonna
- 46:33Speaker 1: remake the whole thing, right.
- 46:34Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna remake the whole thing, and even Adrian
- 46:37Speaker 2: Paul is going to be making a cameo in it too,
- 46:40Speaker 2: So it's like you going to get Connor McCloud from
- 46:42Speaker 2: the Klam McCloud also in this too.
- 46:44Speaker 1: So yeah, I just don't know how you do him?
- 46:48Speaker 1: Is Connor though?
- 46:50Speaker 2: Well he he well, it's he. He won't be he
- 46:55Speaker 2: won't be Connor. He's gonna be Duncan. But yeah, no, no,
- 46:59Speaker 2: he's not gonna be Henry Kevell won't be a Kurgan.
- 47:01Speaker 2: He's gonna he's gonna play He's gonna be playing Duncan
- 47:03Speaker 2: McLeod or Connor McLeod and Adrian Paul's Duncan McLeod. So
- 47:08Speaker 2: he's uh. But also to uh what's his name that
- 47:12Speaker 2: just retired is going to be coming out of retirement
- 47:15Speaker 2: to play uh Ramirez. Remember he was uh uh bat
- 47:22Speaker 2: you know Batman's uh uh he was Alfred and Batman.
- 47:26Speaker 2: I can't remember his name. Yeah, Michael Kaine, that's the
- 47:30Speaker 2: rumors anyways, I don't know how true that is. So
- 47:32Speaker 2: Michael Kane will be playing Ramirez.
- 47:34Speaker 1: Now my question is who they getting to play the.
- 47:36Speaker 2: Kurgan man They had talked I just saw a picture
- 47:40Speaker 2: of it too. But they got someone good to play
- 47:42Speaker 2: the Kurgan.
- 47:42Speaker 1: Well, because Henry Cabell is not a small dude.
- 47:45Speaker 2: Oh he's not a small dude. And they have to
- 47:47Speaker 2: get a big guy to play, but they did. And
- 47:50Speaker 2: I can't remember the guy's name right now, to be
- 47:52Speaker 2: like six eight oh.
- 47:55Speaker 1: Yeah, he's easy close to three hundred pounds.
- 47:58Speaker 2: Yeah, unless it's gonna be a lot of shots because.
- 48:01Speaker 1: You got to bed. You could not win the strongest,
- 48:04Speaker 1: you know, and and stuff like that. I mean, that
- 48:09Speaker 1: was such a classic bad guy, yeah, in the original
- 48:13Speaker 1: Highlander movie. I mean that's it's just as bad as
- 48:18Speaker 1: you could be for a.
- 48:19Speaker 2: Guy, exactly. And it's funny as hell too, is like.
- 48:23Speaker 1: Memorable, he made the whole movie.
- 48:25Speaker 2: And that guy's played in so many movies and done
- 48:28Speaker 2: so many things Starship Troopers Ship. I believe he's Patrick
- 48:33Speaker 2: Starr from SpongeBob SquarePants.
- 48:36Speaker 1: That's funny.
- 48:37Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I'm saying. It's it's it's it's
- 48:40Speaker 2: it's insane. It's insane.
- 48:42Speaker 1: Yeah, And so I mean that that it'll be interesting
- 48:47Speaker 1: to see Cavil in that movie.
- 48:48Speaker 2: So oh yeah. And the one thing I love about
- 48:51Speaker 2: cavill Is. He is a fanatic for keep it simple,
- 48:57Speaker 2: keep it to the book, story to the story. You
- 49:00Speaker 2: know what I'm saying.
- 49:01Speaker 1: I feel bad for Netflix.
- 49:03Speaker 2: Yeah, I do too.
- 49:06Speaker 1: Well they did. They made some season and now they're
- 49:09Speaker 1: coming into the fourth season, which should be out anytime.
- 49:12Speaker 1: So it's not going to do anything.
- 49:16Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, it's it's it's uh, you know, what's
- 49:19Speaker 2: his name's brother, the Thor's brother is going to be
- 49:21Speaker 2: playing the Witcher. And it's like, oh, man, if you
- 49:26Speaker 2: guys would have just stuck to the story stage, to
- 49:28Speaker 2: the script, and like.
- 49:31Speaker 1: At the end of the day, some of these people
- 49:33Speaker 1: that are making these decisions and really not sticking to
- 49:38Speaker 1: what the actual stories were and what the video games
- 49:42Speaker 1: were and stuff like that on games that are based
- 49:45Speaker 1: like that, the studios and the companies should really start
- 49:50Speaker 1: taking a look and why they've employed these people exactly exactly,
- 49:55Speaker 1: and maybe it's time for them to not be in
- 49:57Speaker 1: that industry anymore. I mean, Disney's, Disney's destroyed Marvel.
- 50:02Speaker 2: Disney Ye Star Wars.
- 50:05Speaker 1: And you know, you can't tell them that, but they
- 50:08Speaker 1: have and you know, this this type of person that's
- 50:14Speaker 1: in that that's this type of person that's affecting. Think
- 50:18Speaker 1: these things at the executive levels need to be kind
- 50:21Speaker 1: of rooted out of these companies because people just don't
- 50:25Speaker 1: want to watch it, and you keep having failure after
- 50:28Speaker 1: failure after failure, and yeah, it'll make a little money,
- 50:32Speaker 1: but nothing, but it should and at some point, you know,
- 50:36Speaker 1: maybe you should really kind of look at who's paying
- 50:39Speaker 1: to watch and who's at the end of the day,
- 50:43Speaker 1: if they're not willing to pay and come watch, you
- 50:46Speaker 1: got a problem. Maybe that's where the problem is exactly.
- 50:50Speaker 2: So hey, that's hey, me tell right now, and we'll
- 50:54Speaker 2: both stand on that soapbox, because you know, we want
- 50:58Speaker 2: to watch these things. I'm a movie buff. I grew
- 51:00Speaker 2: up watching movies and I want to watch things that
- 51:03Speaker 2: make me happy and that catch my my my eye,
- 51:06Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
- 51:07Speaker 1: Which we have a good story, and a lot of
- 51:10Speaker 1: these stories are established. Yes, let's not let's if you're
- 51:15Speaker 1: gonna tell a story, tell the story. Yeah, don't don't
- 51:19Speaker 1: destroy this the original story in the part of it. Exactly.
- 51:22Speaker 2: I understand you gotta you gotta fudge it a little
- 51:25Speaker 2: bit for practical purposes, but that means you don't fucking
- 51:29Speaker 2: hit the hit a left and take that detour, and don't.
- 51:33Speaker 1: Don't destroy the story. If you want to have a
- 51:37Speaker 1: different type of thing that you're pushing out there or doing,
- 51:41Speaker 1: write a whole new story. Yeah, do actually sit down
- 51:45Speaker 1: and write something that's completely new.
- 51:49Speaker 2: That's it.
- 51:50Speaker 1: And if you can't do that, don't do it. Don't
- 51:56Speaker 1: do it. If you can't write something free standing on
- 52:00Speaker 1: its own that people want to see, don't change the
- 52:03Speaker 1: old stories. Just retell the story with younger, newer actors,
- 52:10Speaker 1: and any kind of changes you would do in it
- 52:13Speaker 1: make it to better tell the story. I mean, Dune
- 52:16Speaker 1: comes to mind is kind of the way to pretty
- 52:20Speaker 1: much do that, right. There's a couple of things I
- 52:22Speaker 1: probably wouldn't have done so much of, but I would do,
- 52:26Speaker 1: Like who the people that did Dune as opposed to
- 52:30Speaker 1: the old Dune as opposed to the books. They're doing
- 52:33Speaker 1: pretty good so far. Hire more of those people to
- 52:38Speaker 1: tell the story exactly.
- 52:43Speaker 2: I think we squeezed everything out of that one.
- 52:49Speaker 1: But the main thing is enjoy yourself. Enjoy your lives
- 52:55Speaker 1: and have fun with things, and be good to other people.
- 53:00Speaker 1: You know, be good, spread kind things to everyone everywhere
- 53:06Speaker 1: as best you can. And in this day and age,
- 53:12Speaker 1: try to have patience with other people and see where
- 53:20Speaker 1: they're coming from as best that you can in these days.
- 53:25Speaker 1: And just go out and pay one for it. That's
- 53:30Speaker 1: it's it. And go out there, train hard, train smart,
- 53:33Speaker 1: and be the best you can be, because that's all
- 53:35Speaker 1: you can do in the end. It just be the
- 53:36Speaker 1: best you that you can be. And I hope you
- 53:39Speaker 1: all have a great day, And thanks Ben for doing
- 53:41Speaker 1: this here all right, have a good night, guys, and
- 54:03Speaker 2: You're listening to the best experience would make best
