- 2:48Speaker 3: You know, I'm saying it's been a pretty uh pretty
- 2:50Speaker 3: crazy day today for a lot of us. For those
- 2:52Speaker 3: who watch the news.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Yeah, it's been a pretty tragic day, yes, just for
- 3:01Speaker 1: life and people in general. I mean, nobody, nobody deserves
- 3:09Speaker 1: to be killed for their opinion yeah, on anything that
- 3:13Speaker 1: have committed, no crimes that have hurt, no people that
- 3:18Speaker 1: just try to enlighten people and get them to use
- 3:21Speaker 1: their brain and critical thinking skills instead of what they've
- 3:24Speaker 1: been programmed. Which I encourage everybody to use their First
- 3:28Speaker 1: Amendment rights and if you have them, if you're in
- 3:33Speaker 1: a country that has them, and to use your own
- 3:38Speaker 1: critical thinking skills. You should always listen to what media
- 3:45Speaker 1: has to say to a certain degree, but you should
- 3:48Speaker 1: also do your own research and back it all up.
- 3:52Speaker 1: And he was simply trying to get have discussions with
- 3:56Speaker 1: people that would disagree with him, you know, the people
- 4:00Speaker 1: didn't you know, he wanted to get into good discussions
- 4:03Speaker 1: so that stuff like this wouldn't happen. And you know,
- 4:08Speaker 1: if people came on and he would ask questions and
- 4:13Speaker 1: back his stuff of the facts, and they would back
- 4:15Speaker 1: their things up with what they thought or even some facts.
- 4:18Speaker 1: In some cases, there are a few people that got
- 4:20Speaker 1: the Charlie and that's fine, you know, But and if
- 4:24Speaker 1: they just came to a point where they disagreed, he
- 4:26Speaker 1: goes like, okay, well we just agreed to disagree, and
- 4:30Speaker 1: that was the end of it. That was it, That
- 4:33Speaker 1: was all that's all there was. He just would agree
- 4:36Speaker 1: to disagree with them and they would have both go
- 4:38Speaker 1: on with their lives. And someone today thought that because
- 4:45Speaker 1: he wanted people to think for themselves and look at
- 4:50Speaker 1: things from all angles and not just one, from all
- 4:54Speaker 1: lenses and not just one. And he was a devout
- 4:58Speaker 1: Christian and that's fine. He also, you know, he wanted
- 5:05Speaker 1: people to be free as long and have their own
- 5:10Speaker 1: freedom to do what they wanted, as long as they
- 5:12Speaker 1: didn't impose on the rights of other people. You know,
- 5:16Speaker 1: you have the right to basically do whatever you want
- 5:18Speaker 1: in this country as long as it's not infecting someone
- 5:22Speaker 1: else's rights, whether it's the right to privacy like in
- 5:28Speaker 1: a girl's locker room, stuff like that. As long as
- 5:32Speaker 1: it didn't affect their rights, then he didn't really care,
- 5:38Speaker 1: you know. But just don't use your freedom to take
- 5:42Speaker 1: away or impose your will on someone else's rights.
- 5:45Speaker 4: That's it.
- 5:46Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's exactly what happened today. You know, I'm
- 5:48Speaker 3: saying someone you know, like I said, a freedom of
- 5:51Speaker 3: speech is something that we hold very high here, yes,
- 5:54Speaker 3: and you know, and like I said, it's.
- 5:57Speaker 4: You don't have that, you don't have anything.
- 5:59Speaker 1: Yeah, you can never speak out against the government. You're
- 6:04Speaker 1: not You're not gonna have a government that's going to
- 6:06Speaker 1: respond to the people very well, that's for sure. And
- 6:09Speaker 1: you know they they tried to do things for misinformation. No,
- 6:13Speaker 1: it's not misadventurings. It's your freedom of speech. And if
- 6:16Speaker 1: you choose to believe something other than what the government
- 6:19Speaker 1: that's supposed to work for you believes, well, you know what,
- 6:21Speaker 1: too bad for the government. That's your First Amendment rights.
- 6:26Speaker 1: They're not supposed to be able to do anything. And
- 6:32Speaker 1: for him to be killed over that is.
- 6:38Speaker 4: Pretty sad.
- 6:39Speaker 1: We don't know a lot of information about it yet,
- 6:43Speaker 1: but it was just awful and the video that was
- 6:47Speaker 1: out that was going on, and just it was horrific.
- 6:52Speaker 1: And I'd like to give my condolencense to his wife
- 6:56Speaker 1: and his family and his kids.
- 6:59Speaker 4: Who's who's two young kids that just.
- 7:04Speaker 1: You know, will never really I mean, there'll be plenty
- 7:07Speaker 1: of stuff out there so they can see who their
- 7:09Speaker 1: dad really was, but they still won't get raised by him,
- 7:14Speaker 1: and that's not right. And then coming off the back
- 7:18Speaker 1: of the Ukrainian girl getting stabbed in the bus and
- 7:21Speaker 1: everybody's sitting there literally doing nothing.
- 7:27Speaker 4: We have.
- 7:30Speaker 1: Our society has destroyed what men are so much that
- 7:38Speaker 1: they all sat on the bus and literally did nothing.
- 7:44Speaker 1: That that's horrible. You don't the guy wasn't like a big,
- 7:51Speaker 1: massive guy. He wasn't any I mean literally could have
- 7:54Speaker 1: just grabbed his arm that had the knife and it
- 7:58Speaker 1: held on to him, and other people would have came,
- 8:00Speaker 1: could have easily overpowered that guy. There was what three
- 8:03Speaker 1: or four men sitting there, Well, it turns out there
- 8:07Speaker 1: were no men sitting there. And if you're offended, I
- 8:09Speaker 1: just said you weren't a man and you were sitting there,
- 8:12Speaker 1: you should be offended. You're supposed to protect people and
- 8:21Speaker 1: protect those who can't protect themselves, and protect women, you know.
- 8:29Speaker 1: And it's it's coming off the back of those things
- 8:33Speaker 1: and these judges that just let criminals just keep getting
- 8:37Speaker 1: out and keep doing harm to people. It's just unacceptable
- 8:43Speaker 1: all the way around. Yeah, it's a sad day. I
- 8:49Speaker 1: feel sorry for her. She was trying to escape what
- 8:52Speaker 1: was going on in the Ukraine. Yeah, escape the violent
- 8:57Speaker 1: life of war and and just bad things. And it's
- 9:04Speaker 1: just it's it's sad.
- 9:06Speaker 3: It is.
- 9:07Speaker 1: My heart's my heart's a little heavy for those things today. Yeah,
- 9:13Speaker 1: I encourage everybody if you live in a country where
- 9:16Speaker 1: you have the freedom of speech, to use it and always,
- 9:21Speaker 1: whether you're live anywhere or not, always think for yourself.
- 9:25Speaker 1: Always investigate things yourself. It's not really hard to figure out,
- 9:34Speaker 1: you know, if something like the blue masks stop particles
- 9:38Speaker 1: down to three microns, Okay, a virus is between point
- 9:44Speaker 1: one and point four microns. You don't need a doctor,
- 9:51Speaker 1: a scientist, or anything else to know that it's going
- 9:54Speaker 1: to go right through. If it's point one, it's a
- 9:58Speaker 1: it's a it's a one day four inch ball going
- 10:01Speaker 1: through a thirty.
- 10:02Speaker 3: Inch hole exactly.
- 10:04Speaker 1: The ninety five is a three inch hole and a
- 10:06Speaker 1: one inch ball still goes right through. So that's that's
- 10:12Speaker 1: the thing. And I know a double mass doesn't work.
- 10:16Speaker 1: It's so it's just being able to think for yourself
- 10:21Speaker 1: and do your own research. If they tell you should
- 10:23Speaker 1: do some things, look at it, go look it up,
- 10:25Speaker 1: find it, look at the manufacturing things on it, and say,
- 10:29Speaker 1: see how they function the best. And you know, under
- 10:33Speaker 1: the what's the smallest party that can stop that? To
- 10:36Speaker 1: just stuff like that, look into things yourself and stand
- 10:41Speaker 1: up for yourself, you know, And I just my heart
- 10:48Speaker 1: goes out to all the families involved with the senseless.
- 10:52Speaker 3: Needless, exactly violence. You know, it's a heartfelt thing out there.
- 10:57Speaker 3: Like I said, you know, it's just it's crazy, and
- 11:01Speaker 3: like I said, I know, we just wanted to touch
- 11:03Speaker 3: on it because, like I said, this is something that
- 11:06Speaker 3: shouldn't happen, especially, like I said, this is a college,
- 11:10Speaker 3: this is a gun free zone. There's these things that
- 11:13Speaker 3: these people set up that fail. You know what I'm saying.
- 11:17Speaker 3: There's things that happen and they think they're doing right,
- 11:20Speaker 3: but unfortunately, guess what. You know what I'm saying, criminals
- 11:24Speaker 3: don't follow the law, and that's what always seems to
- 11:27Speaker 3: fall on death ears. You know what I'm saying. They're like, well,
- 11:29Speaker 3: we have these rules for a reason, and yet you
- 11:33Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, You know, the people speak.
- 11:35Speaker 1: To society and wonder way we create safe zones when
- 11:39Speaker 1: the safe zones are not safe. How many times do
- 11:42Speaker 1: we have to see that schools and colleges that have
- 11:45Speaker 1: gun free zones that are supposed to be safe zones,
- 11:48Speaker 1: they're not safe. They're actually the literal opposite of safe,
- 11:55Speaker 1: and start realizing that this is the wrong idea. You
- 12:00Speaker 1: know these these schools should have a four man tactical
- 12:04Speaker 1: unit at every school, SWAP level, SWAT level, or operator
- 12:09Speaker 1: level at each school. And people show up to do
- 12:13Speaker 1: bad things will come to an immediate halt. You don't
- 12:18Speaker 1: see people going into the courthouses very often doing these things.
- 12:21Speaker 1: You don't see people going into congress and doing these things.
- 12:24Speaker 1: Why because they're protected with really really highly trained people
- 12:28Speaker 1: with guns.
- 12:30Speaker 3: Exactly.
- 12:31Speaker 1: You know, our kids need that. Our kids are more
- 12:33Speaker 1: valuable than the politicians, hands down, without a question. The
- 12:41Speaker 1: politicians are in somebody's pocket right or left, you know,
- 12:46Speaker 1: to a certain degree. But our children aren't. They deserve
- 12:50Speaker 1: to be protected better than the politicians exactly, you know,
- 12:56Speaker 1: and there wouldn't be another school shooting.
- 12:58Speaker 3: Well they wouldn't, you know, saying, because guess what a
- 13:01Speaker 3: lot of these you know, even mass shooters and all
- 13:03Speaker 3: these people, they're scared people. You know what I'm saying.
- 13:06Speaker 3: It doesn't take much to deter them. And you know,
- 13:11Speaker 3: it's just you know, like they always talk about like
- 13:13Speaker 3: you know, all of this person had this assault rifle.
- 13:16Speaker 3: It's like it's not an assault rifle. And then also too,
- 13:19Speaker 3: they don't know what they're doing. You know what I'm saying,
- 13:22Speaker 3: they have no understanding or tactical because, like I said,
- 13:26Speaker 3: it's just, you know, things would be worse if they
- 13:29Speaker 3: had training, but they don't have training. They're just you know,
- 13:32Speaker 3: something was wrong.
- 13:33Speaker 1: And I would like to see every school and every
- 13:37Speaker 1: safe zone actually be a safe zone and an unsafe
- 13:42Speaker 1: zone for people that need to do.
- 13:44Speaker 3: Bad things exactly exactly.
- 13:48Speaker 4: And that's about it for the political stuff.
- 13:51Speaker 3: Yes, yes, we'll drop it there. Let's go into Let's
- 13:55Speaker 3: go into some Rogue Invitational. We got another update, so
- 14:01Speaker 3: people that the on the last update, I'm gonna go
- 14:03Speaker 3: through the list. We had Evan Singleton, Tom Evans, Lucas Hatton,
- 14:08Speaker 3: Austin Andrade, and Patty Hayes, you know what I'm saying.
- 14:11Speaker 3: So those were the people that we knew were coming in.
- 14:14Speaker 3: And you know, that's a hot list right there, right
- 14:17Speaker 3: just right off top. We have people that were basically
- 14:22Speaker 3: all three of the top three Strongest World the Strongest
- 14:25Speaker 3: Man on Earth finalists are in the Rogue Invitational. Austin
- 14:29Speaker 3: and Rotty came in fourth. So it's like, guess what
- 14:32Speaker 3: you you you got to Trey's there too, That's what
- 14:37Speaker 3: I'm saying. We we we we got top of the list.
- 14:39Speaker 3: But coming in hot we got Mitchell Hooper joining in
- 14:44Speaker 3: Hawthorne who just broke and we're gonna talk about it later,
- 14:46Speaker 3: but he just hit that five to ten. Yeah yeah,
- 14:51Speaker 3: yeah yeah. Like I said, I want to get that
- 14:53Speaker 3: after this. But Tom Stultman is in. I don't know
- 14:57Speaker 3: how he's gonna be because I don't know the extent
- 14:59Speaker 3: of the damage he had in his arm from the
- 15:02Speaker 3: Strongest Man on Earth. So you know, like I'm definitely
- 15:04Speaker 3: looking forward to just seeing what kind of shape he's
- 15:07Speaker 3: coming in. And then a big thicket Tray Mitchell, good
- 15:11Speaker 3: friend of ours, you know what I'm saying. You know
- 15:13Speaker 3: he's gonna be in there. And then we got a
- 15:15Speaker 3: World's Strongest Man, Rhin O'Neil coming in this. I wasn't
- 15:20Speaker 3: expecting Rhino to come in. I wasn't too sure because,
- 15:22Speaker 3: like I said, I know he declined the offer for
- 15:24Speaker 3: strongest Man on Earth and I don't remember what his
- 15:26Speaker 3: reasons were, but him coming into the rogue, you know,
- 15:29Speaker 3: I'm definitely like him at World Strongest Man was I
- 15:33Speaker 3: wasn't expecting his his his output. I wasn't expecting for
- 15:38Speaker 3: him to perform as well as he did, and even
- 15:40Speaker 3: with a lot of the events that he was doing,
- 15:42Speaker 3: he he was solid all the way around. So and
- 15:46Speaker 3: what's what's the league he comes out of? Out of Australia,
- 15:49Speaker 3: out of.
- 15:50Speaker 1: Uh African Champions League. He was the champion last year.
- 15:55Speaker 1: So yeah, uh, he's he's gonna be a good kid.
- 16:00Speaker 1: He's still really young, he's still pretty inexperienced. He's been
- 16:03Speaker 1: getting a lot of invice, he's turned a few down,
- 16:06Speaker 1: but he's still been competing a lot.
- 16:09Speaker 4: So we'll see how it goes with this one.
- 16:12Speaker 1: The kids are eventually going to figure out that when
- 16:15Speaker 1: you hit something like like and hit a big win
- 16:18Speaker 1: like World's Strongest Man a lot of the smaller shows,
- 16:21Speaker 1: even though you want to go help the people that
- 16:22Speaker 1: got you there, maybe go make an appearance of the
- 16:25Speaker 1: shows instead of competing in the shows. Maybe do a
- 16:28Speaker 1: training lift or something like that there and start working
- 16:33Speaker 1: on weaknesses and get your body to heal so that
- 16:36Speaker 1: you're there, you're promoting, you're doing stuff for the guys
- 16:38Speaker 1: that helped you get there, stuff like that from ourselves
- 16:40Speaker 1: and Oka and those guys. But you're not beating yourself
- 16:44Speaker 1: up or performing bad and making it, not making people wonder,
- 16:49Speaker 1: you know, what was going on, but getting ready for
- 16:53Speaker 1: the next big shows. He should immediately started getting ready
- 16:56Speaker 1: for either the Strongest and on Earth or the Rogue. Yeah,
- 17:02Speaker 1: even more both.
- 17:04Speaker 3: Yeah, and.
- 17:07Speaker 1: You know he's done a few shows between here and there,
- 17:09Speaker 1: so we'll we'll see what happens at the Rogue. Yeah,
- 17:13Speaker 1: it's a pretty good contest. It's gonna be challenging. So
- 17:17Speaker 1: and the guys there, they're good. He came in the
- 17:20Speaker 1: world to perform. Now I needs to go to the
- 17:22Speaker 1: Rogue and perform. So it's you see how he prepares.
- 17:25Speaker 3: For it exactly. And like I said, we got a
- 17:27Speaker 3: heavy duty list here. Every one of these guys is
- 17:30Speaker 3: tip of a spear strong man. There's not a person
- 17:33Speaker 3: in here that can't take.
- 17:34Speaker 1: It, couldn't possibly win it. I mean, my conditioning just
- 17:39Speaker 1: went off in the garage. If you hear a little
- 17:42Speaker 1: humming noise.
- 17:43Speaker 3: We'll take it out and post.
- 17:47Speaker 2: Uh.
- 17:48Speaker 4: But yeah, I think.
- 17:50Speaker 1: Thor being in is gonna and Mitchell Hooper being back
- 17:55Speaker 1: in and Evan coming in.
- 17:57Speaker 4: We'll see how Evan does. He's still got a good
- 17:59Speaker 4: amount of time.
- 18:01Speaker 1: But that call and then reattempted to eighty eighty where
- 18:06Speaker 1: he kind of messed up his.
- 18:07Speaker 4: Hamstring a little bit.
- 18:08Speaker 1: Yeah, probably smart for him to you know, sit the
- 18:12Speaker 1: rest of that out, not get hurt any possibly.
- 18:15Speaker 4: Worse than he is. Yeah, and then get after get
- 18:18Speaker 4: after the road. I mean, it's the big show, so.
- 18:21Speaker 3: You know, and that that that's the truth. You know
- 18:22Speaker 3: what I'm saying. Strong Man Deadlift Championship. Guess what, great?
- 18:26Speaker 1: I love it, But you got to you got to
- 18:29Speaker 1: realize you're not right now. You're hard to beat four
- 18:31Speaker 1: of the deadlift. The only person, the only person I
- 18:34Speaker 1: think he's got a chance is going to be right now,
- 18:37Speaker 1: probably Hooper if he's completely healthy, and maybe Andrade or Trey,
- 18:43Speaker 1: Yeah you know those both of those guys can pull
- 18:46Speaker 1: pretty over the bar. So exactly a thousand, thirty six
- 18:51Speaker 1: thirty six, and Trey's pulling without a suit.
- 18:56Speaker 4: So yeah, he gets used to his suit. Know it
- 19:00Speaker 4: could be.
- 19:01Speaker 3: Hey, pretty spicy, exactly. You know what I'm saying. He's
- 19:03Speaker 3: done it this long, he's pulled over it. He's pulled
- 19:06Speaker 3: a thousand without even using the suit, and so now
- 19:09Speaker 3: it's like yeah, so now it's like okay, cool, let
- 19:13Speaker 3: me put on the suit. And really see what I
- 19:15Speaker 3: can fucking do.
- 19:16Speaker 1: Right, So it should be it's good to the Road's
- 19:20Speaker 1: gonna be a good show.
- 19:21Speaker 3: Yeah, and there will be a live stream, so it
- 19:24Speaker 3: will be live stream for those who want to watch it,
- 19:26Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. So you know, roabe, we're
- 19:29Speaker 3: still throwing out that fishing line for you to come
- 19:31Speaker 3: snag us up.
- 19:34Speaker 4: So what else you got going?
- 19:35Speaker 1: What else?
- 19:36Speaker 4: What else with them? What else was there?
- 19:38Speaker 3: Because I no that that was it? Uh, they put
- 19:42Speaker 3: out the list and I think it was today or yesterday,
- 19:45Speaker 3: and I was like, all right, that that's good to hear.
- 19:47Speaker 3: And then I wanted to talk about that five ten
- 19:51Speaker 3: five ten kilos.
- 19:53Speaker 4: And look the one that looked like.
- 19:57Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly exactly. You know right off top four is
- 20:03Speaker 3: down in weight. He's not as heavy as he was.
- 20:06Speaker 3: His form is completely different than what it used to be.
- 20:09Speaker 3: And you know what I'm saying, like he's pulling in
- 20:12Speaker 3: a different way. I don't know if it's because he
- 20:14Speaker 3: he's not. I'm not saying he's lost size. I'm not
- 20:17Speaker 3: saying he's but he's got a little slimmer of hyzeque
- 20:20Speaker 3: than usual from what I always remember. And I don't
- 20:23Speaker 3: know if that he's just being able to dig into
- 20:26Speaker 3: it better or what do you think?
- 20:27Speaker 1: I think I think he's digging into it really better.
- 20:30Speaker 1: And then I think, I don't know how much down
- 20:35Speaker 1: he is in weight, if at all. I think it's
- 20:37Speaker 1: just better weight that's on him. He's matured a lot
- 20:40Speaker 1: more from previous years, because I remember his form doesn't
- 20:45Speaker 1: look that far off of what he did here in
- 20:48Speaker 1: my garage years ago. Yes, so it looks very very similar.
- 20:53Speaker 1: The only difference is is I think when he did
- 20:56Speaker 1: the five of five there was a problem with the
- 20:59Speaker 1: floor and he couldn't the bar in.
- 21:01Speaker 3: Yeah, I remember hearing that.
- 21:02Speaker 1: And at this one he was able to roll the
- 21:05Speaker 1: bar in and boy didn't make a difference. So he
- 21:08Speaker 1: popped that right up. So I think that was probably
- 21:11Speaker 1: the biggest difference between the last one at five or
- 21:13Speaker 1: five and this one at five ten. He just hit
- 21:15Speaker 1: it right in the groove right from the get go off.
- 21:18Speaker 1: The floor just came off so strong and just carried
- 21:20Speaker 1: it up. It's like I said, that one he hit
- 21:24Speaker 1: just on the head. It made it look like he
- 21:26Speaker 1: had another ten fifteen kilos in there.
- 21:28Speaker 3: Yeah, so it looked like he could pull it for reps.
- 21:31Speaker 3: That's how smooth it look.
- 21:33Speaker 4: Right, But it's eleven and twenty four pounds.
- 21:37Speaker 3: Yeah, it's exactly heavy.
- 21:41Speaker 1: So I mean, it's it's pretty pretty amazing. He was
- 21:45Speaker 1: able to do that just like four weeks later.
- 21:47Speaker 3: So exactly, you know. And one of the things too,
- 21:50Speaker 3: is like, you know, with world records and with pulling
- 21:53Speaker 3: like that. You know, I've heard you say it numerous times.
- 21:56Speaker 3: There's a strategy to break in records. You know what
- 21:59Speaker 3: I'm saying, you know, and you know it. Just give
- 22:02Speaker 3: a little bit of that insight, like if you were
- 22:04Speaker 3: for you pulled that, what would be like, let's say,
- 22:09Speaker 3: how long and when do you break it again?
- 22:12Speaker 1: Well, the thing is, though, is I think he got
- 22:15Speaker 1: one hundred ground for pulling that.
- 22:16Speaker 4: Yes he did, So you don't want to break it
- 22:20Speaker 4: by much?
- 22:21Speaker 1: Yes, and then just keep all right, every time somebody
- 22:25Speaker 1: offers him amount to break it, break it, the next
- 22:29Speaker 1: number should be five to fifteen, or even five twelve
- 22:32Speaker 1: for that matter, five twelve because yeah, but so Dreunis
- 22:36Speaker 1: did that time and and time again. He would come
- 22:39Speaker 1: in and just pop the record up just a little bit,
- 22:42Speaker 1: and it looked like he'd hit it easy. Look like
- 22:44Speaker 1: he's got you know, five ten marquilas in him. Think
- 22:48Speaker 1: he just chip it every single time. That's why he
- 22:51Speaker 1: broke the little record in the log over probably over
- 22:54Speaker 1: thirty forty times. And it's a smart, smart way to
- 22:58Speaker 1: do it. Until you feel like you're at the end
- 23:02Speaker 1: of what your body's capable of. When you feel like
- 23:05Speaker 1: this might be the last time you get to go,
- 23:08Speaker 1: you throw it on and you go. You go for
- 23:10Speaker 1: whatever you got left in you to set it up.
- 23:12Speaker 1: They're so high that people it's gonna take. It's gonna
- 23:16Speaker 1: be a good lone of time before people will get
- 23:18Speaker 1: to it. So unless you're unless Thor is planning on
- 23:24Speaker 1: being done and not competing anymore, he should just just
- 23:27Speaker 1: keep knocking it away, keep chipping it away, keep chipping away.
- 23:30Speaker 1: The best the best thing that could happen to Thorn
- 23:32Speaker 1: now is Minchell come up and pull like a five
- 23:36Speaker 1: twelve or a five point fifteen when Thor is not there. Yeah,
- 23:40Speaker 1: and then they just keep doing this back and forth.
- 23:45Speaker 1: That would be huge and probably help the sport quite
- 23:49Speaker 1: a bit. But you know, anybody who come up there
- 23:52Speaker 1: and go, you know, I'm out of nowhere and just
- 23:55Speaker 1: pull five twenty five. It's gonna be an amazing lift.
- 23:59Speaker 1: I want to see that up, but I think it'll
- 24:02Speaker 1: get to that again. So it's yeah, because every time
- 24:07Speaker 1: he goes and does that, you got so.
- 24:09Speaker 3: Many in you exactly.
- 24:11Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 24:13Speaker 1: Wait, they're like, okay, it's getting harder now, it's getting
- 24:16Speaker 1: this getting out. I think I can get this out
- 24:18Speaker 1: of my body. I'm gonna lay it on the line
- 24:20Speaker 1: because I don't think I'm gonna get back up here
- 24:22Speaker 1: anytime soon again.
- 24:23Speaker 4: And then you just drop the ball.
- 24:26Speaker 3: There we go, you know. So that's a healthy strategy.
- 24:28Speaker 3: Like I said, I've heard you, you know, lay that
- 24:30Speaker 3: out for a lot of people before, and it's just.
- 24:34Speaker 1: It's like, no, don't don't break your record by fifty
- 24:36Speaker 1: pounds right now. Yeah, break the wook, break the record again,
- 24:41Speaker 1: keep the world record, and then break it again the
- 24:44Speaker 1: next time, and then break it again the next time,
- 24:46Speaker 1: and then break it again the next time.
- 24:47Speaker 3: That's it when.
- 24:51Speaker 4: Yeah, break it one time and they just stopped doing it.
- 24:55Speaker 3: But yeah, Well, what I was gonna ask is, when
- 24:59Speaker 3: Eddie broke the record, what was the old record before
- 25:02Speaker 3: he broke it? Because I know when he hit that
- 25:04Speaker 3: magical number that was the fucking no one thought that
- 25:06Speaker 3: could happen.
- 25:08Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to say it was either one thousand
- 25:11Speaker 1: and thirty six or one thousand and forty something in
- 25:15Speaker 1: that range. In that range, because he'd pulled over a
- 25:22Speaker 1: thousand a few points a couple of times already at
- 25:24Speaker 1: that point, and then he just walked the record that
- 25:29Speaker 1: was there. Nobody thought that was gonna be possible, and
- 25:31Speaker 1: he did it. The interesting thing is what Jerry would
- 25:36Speaker 1: have had on that day if he didn't have to
- 25:39Speaker 1: sit there and cool off for a half hour before
- 25:41Speaker 1: he tried it. Pritchard tried it that day too, and
- 25:44Speaker 1: Princhet pulled one thousand and thirty six pretty easy as well.
- 25:47Speaker 1: But that's not how it turned out. Just kind of
- 25:50Speaker 1: one of those what if things. But I mean it
- 25:53Speaker 1: had been kind of neat to see, big time, but
- 25:57Speaker 1: it hit an eleven hundred pounds to celebrate it quite
- 25:59Speaker 1: a bit.
- 26:00Speaker 3: Exactly, right, So yeah, big time, big time. You know.
- 26:06Speaker 3: With that being covered, let's actually go into movies. We would.
- 26:10Speaker 3: Nick was just disgusted with what he's just seen over
- 26:12Speaker 3: the weekend, and luckily for me, I actually seen it too.
- 26:15Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 26:16Speaker 1: Yeah, the New Jurassic Park movie was Scarlotte Johansson.
- 26:20Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, I like the movies.
- 26:23Speaker 1: Yeah, well, they just about movies for their own different reasons.
- 26:29Speaker 3: Of course.
- 26:30Speaker 1: She's a fine actress. Yeah, so she's she she does
- 26:36Speaker 1: very well. She plays the roles that she's in very well.
- 26:41Speaker 1: It was a decent movie. I mean, there's so many
- 26:43Speaker 1: Jurassic Park movies now it's like, okay, how can you
- 26:46Speaker 1: redo this again?
- 26:48Speaker 3: Exactly?
- 26:49Speaker 1: And they actually kind of figured out a way so
- 26:51Speaker 1: if you want something that's safe, you know, kind of
- 26:53Speaker 1: what the Jurassic Park mode is model is area is
- 26:58Speaker 1: that whole very similar, familiar type of movie set. It's
- 27:04Speaker 1: just got a little bit of a new twist on it.
- 27:06Speaker 1: It's it's kind of like a comfort thing. You're gonna
- 27:08Speaker 1: watch it. You kind of know what you're getting, just
- 27:10Speaker 1: a couple of new angles on it. Like, oh, by
- 27:13Speaker 1: the way, and this this is gonna be a plot record.
- 27:16Speaker 1: I'm not gonna tell you how it ends, but this
- 27:19Speaker 1: will give you a live bit of the plot. The
- 27:21Speaker 1: reason why they're going back to the islands. The dinosaurs
- 27:23Speaker 1: are just starting to die off all of everywhere except
- 27:26Speaker 1: for the hot zone. So the dinosaurs are around the
- 27:28Speaker 1: Equator mostly, and they're dying at other places around the
- 27:31Speaker 1: world because they can't handle the semisture difference. And they discover,
- 27:37Speaker 1: they think, they discover that these three big, huge dinosaurs,
- 27:43Speaker 1: like the most three massive dinosaurs, one from the air,
- 27:46Speaker 1: one from the ocean, and one on land, if they
- 27:51Speaker 1: can get their blood, they might be able to derive
- 27:54Speaker 1: a cure from cancer and save all these people in
- 27:57Speaker 1: the world.
- 27:57Speaker 4: You know, big core companies paying from them to go there.
- 28:00Speaker 1: It is illegal for people to go there, so they're
- 28:03Speaker 1: facing prosecution and being hunted down for it. They face that,
- 28:07Speaker 1: and they go to the island to try to get
- 28:09Speaker 1: the blood from the three dinosaurs. Which is a different
- 28:12Speaker 1: kind of reflection on it when you get to see
- 28:15Speaker 1: a little bit of the laboratories and stuff on the
- 28:18Speaker 1: original thing where they were doing all the laboratory work
- 28:21Speaker 1: on the dinosaurs, the genetic mutations, and so you see
- 28:25Speaker 1: a kind of couple genetically mutated dinosaurs and stuff like
- 28:30Speaker 1: that that were very different from what you saw in
- 28:32Speaker 1: the movies, even though the last one had the gigantic
- 28:37Speaker 1: you know, killer raptor rex thing, correct, So this one
- 28:50Speaker 1: you just see some flat out different mutations. But it
- 28:55Speaker 1: was a good hole. You know, it was a good
- 28:58Speaker 1: you know, oh their condition should uh. It was a
- 29:02Speaker 1: good kind of like you knew what you were getting into.
- 29:06Speaker 1: It was entertaining, it wasn't boring, wasn't ground or shattering
- 29:11Speaker 1: or ground shaking or anything like that. But it was
- 29:14Speaker 1: a good, soft, you know, easy way to spend a
- 29:17Speaker 1: couple hours watching a movie if you want to sit
- 29:19Speaker 1: and just watch a movie. It wasn't great, it wasn't bad.
- 29:22Speaker 1: It was just a good way to spend a couple
- 29:24Speaker 1: of hours watching something that you knew that was going
- 29:26Speaker 1: to be safe to watch, or you kind of got
- 29:29Speaker 1: the plot and what was going to happen. Dinosaurs chase people,
- 29:32Speaker 1: dinosaurs eat some people, people get away and win type
- 29:37Speaker 1: of thing. So yeah, that's kind of was That's kind
- 29:41Speaker 1: of my review on it.
- 29:42Speaker 3: All right, let's give it a score one out of
- 29:44Speaker 3: five there, three and a half. Three and a half. Hey,
- 29:48Speaker 3: you know what, I seen it, and I definitely agree
- 29:51Speaker 3: with that score because it was great. I knew it
- 29:54Speaker 3: was a comfort watch. Just like you said, I knew
- 29:56Speaker 3: what I was getting into, and I just wanted the
- 29:58Speaker 3: dinosaurs because every time you watch a Jurassic Park from
- 30:01Speaker 3: the first one, the last one, they are done right,
- 30:05Speaker 3: you know, the first one don't hold up as well.
- 30:06Speaker 3: But guess what back then, how how futuristic was.
- 30:10Speaker 4: That, you know when they first started them?
- 30:13Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, exactly so. And for those who have never
- 30:17Speaker 3: read a Jurassic Park book, because it is a book,
- 30:20Speaker 3: there's multiple books. If you read those books, horror the
- 30:25Speaker 3: entire time. So you know what I'm saying, if you ever,
- 30:27Speaker 3: if you ever get a chance, and you know, like the.
- 30:29Speaker 1: Books nice as the movies by exactly, people don't.
- 30:34Speaker 4: Do the people do not fare as well in the.
- 30:37Speaker 3: Books, Yes, exactly, So that's pretty crazy. I actually just
- 30:45Speaker 3: uh uh. You know, I love action movies and I
- 30:48Speaker 3: always go through old act movies. I just watched Triple Threat.
- 30:51Speaker 3: I've been on a Michael jaw White binge lately, so
- 30:54Speaker 3: I think I've watched about four Michael jaw White movies
- 30:56Speaker 3: in a row, and you know, it's just always always
- 31:00Speaker 3: like to recommend those. But also too, I like to
- 31:02Speaker 3: watch b action movies, you know what I'm saying, because
- 31:06Speaker 3: they're not perfect, but they're very they're full of action
- 31:10Speaker 3: and sometimes you can tell what things are about to happen.
- 31:13Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true. Yeah, I just watched Ultimatum again.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Oh that's a good one. Yeah, that's a good one.
- 31:18Speaker 3: I like that one.
- 31:19Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, I had a little bit sitting and eating,
- 31:22Speaker 1: just popped it on for about half hour.
- 31:24Speaker 4: It was just like, oh yeah, remember this was a
- 31:26Speaker 4: good movie.
- 31:26Speaker 3: So yeah, you know, list lists, list of movie or
- 31:32Speaker 3: TV show because you know, you don't watch much TV,
- 31:35Speaker 3: but you do watch the movies. Something that you will
- 31:37Speaker 3: just if you see it or come across it, you
- 31:40Speaker 3: will watch it.
- 31:42Speaker 4: Oh like, well Dune, there we go.
- 31:45Speaker 1: If I see Dune, either the new versions or the
- 31:49Speaker 1: old version, I will I will watch it.
- 31:51Speaker 4: I just like it.
- 31:55Speaker 1: Those will definitely watch. And then like Yellowstone or land Man.
- 31:59Speaker 3: Yeah, those.
- 32:02Speaker 4: Are pretty good.
- 32:02Speaker 3: Yeah, those are pretty good. You know, I can't remember
- 32:06Speaker 3: which way it went. I think it was Star Wars
- 32:09Speaker 3: ripped off Dune and because they read the book was
- 32:13Speaker 3: read and then Star Wars was written. You can't hold
- 32:16Speaker 3: me to it, but I believe that's what I've heard.
- 32:20Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. The stories aren't real similar.
- 32:24Speaker 3: But well you know, the concepts are similar, just not
- 32:27Speaker 3: uh not not you know, not for me.
- 32:31Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean Battlestar Galatzka just got accused of ripping
- 32:34Speaker 1: off Star Wars as well.
- 32:35Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. You know, everybody was inspired by somebody.
- 32:40Speaker 1: Yeah, especially a lot of the way their filming techniques were,
- 32:43Speaker 1: and a lot of the a lot of the filming
- 32:46Speaker 1: techniques and then just some of the ways that they
- 32:49Speaker 1: moved the cameras and stuff like that.
- 32:51Speaker 3: So oh yeah, oh yeah, well, Nick, let me get
- 32:54Speaker 3: into some training. What's your what's your week looking like
- 32:57Speaker 3: this week? Because you know it's only Wednesday and you
- 33:00Speaker 3: train on a completely different schedule now, so it's like.
- 33:05Speaker 4: This finish being put together.
- 33:08Speaker 3: There you go.
- 33:10Speaker 1: So that is a Bear Steel leg extension and leg
- 33:14Speaker 1: chrome machine.
- 33:15Speaker 3: Thank you Bear Steel.
- 33:17Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it's very very heavy duty. I needed a
- 33:23Speaker 1: thirty six and thirty four millimeters sockets to put the bolts.
- 33:29Speaker 3: In exactly that that's such a big bolt. And it's
- 33:35Speaker 3: like for those who you know, I'm very into mechaniccking
- 33:38Speaker 3: and working on cars and uh and I said mechanic ing,
- 33:41Speaker 3: so you know, I'm just know I'm having fun with that.
- 33:44Speaker 3: But that bolt itself, that specific size is for to
- 33:49Speaker 3: hold on your wheel. So almost every car in the
- 33:52Speaker 3: United States, that's the size of the nut that holds
- 33:55Speaker 3: your wheels in the front of your car on yeah.
- 33:59Speaker 1: So yeah, they're pretty good sized bolts, so it's not
- 34:03Speaker 1: going anywhere, and it's in a really small footprint. It's
- 34:08Speaker 1: designed for home gyms, so it's less than a three
- 34:11Speaker 1: foot by three foot square area that it sits in,
- 34:15Speaker 1: and so it doesn't take up a lot of space.
- 34:16Speaker 1: But you can, like I said, you can do leg
- 34:18Speaker 1: exten seated leg extensions, and seated leg curls on it.
- 34:21Speaker 1: Stat goes up to like two hundred and eighty six pounds,
- 34:24Speaker 1: so it's pretty heavy. You got great rangers of motion
- 34:26Speaker 1: on it, and I'm looking forward to finishing off putting
- 34:30Speaker 1: it together when we get done with this, to do
- 34:33Speaker 1: some training on it. So tomorrow morning, when I wake up,
- 34:37Speaker 1: I'll train legs and get that stuff going. I'll add
- 34:41Speaker 1: the seated leg curls and the leg extensions into my training.
- 34:46Speaker 4: Tomorrow.
- 34:46Speaker 1: I'm probably gonna do some Hatfield squats again. Actually no,
- 34:51Speaker 1: I'll probably do Zurcher squats this week and then go
- 34:55Speaker 1: into some drags and stiff leg a dead list with
- 34:59Speaker 1: the bar this week instead of dumbbells, go up a
- 35:02Speaker 1: little heavier, go up to like four fifty five hundred
- 35:04Speaker 1: pounds on the stuff like a dead lifts, do some
- 35:07Speaker 1: leg press and then finish off the leggings, sensions and
- 35:10Speaker 1: the like curls.
- 35:11Speaker 3: Okay, so that sounds be doing tomorrow. Yeah, that sounds good.
- 35:15Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying everything, you know, like I said,
- 35:18Speaker 3: it's getting the training and you know, give us a
- 35:20Speaker 3: little peek into the mindset like like uh, you know,
- 35:23Speaker 3: because you when you train, you train methodically. You train
- 35:26Speaker 3: with an understanding of what you of, what you're going in,
- 35:28Speaker 3: what are like even when you're hitting the describe what
- 35:31Speaker 3: you're trying to feel when you're trying to hit the
- 35:34Speaker 3: muscle you're trying to hit, well.
- 35:36Speaker 1: I want to stimulate work the muscle too, you know,
- 35:40Speaker 1: pretty close to its failure point and not over.
- 35:45Speaker 4: You know, once it's done's done, you know it's it's Lee.
- 35:49Speaker 1: Haney was known for saying something called stimulate, don't annihilate,
- 35:52Speaker 1: and it's very true. Mixed out with the heavy duty,
- 35:56Speaker 1: and then mixed out with the heavy duty and the
- 35:59Speaker 1: stuff that dawn and mix that with the West Side
- 36:02Speaker 1: stuff and their training philosophy, and then the stuff I
- 36:05Speaker 1: learned from Bull Stewart and Ed Colin All kind of
- 36:08Speaker 1: thrown in there, and I figured out my own way
- 36:11Speaker 1: to incorporate that into Stroman events. I am looking I
- 36:19Speaker 1: talked to doctor in the next couple of days about
- 36:21Speaker 1: my hip. We'll see how that goes. Hopefully that turns
- 36:26Speaker 1: out well, and then I can get my hip fixed
- 36:28Speaker 1: and taken care of. I can get onto recovery and
- 36:31Speaker 1: then back to lifting the way I want to lift,
- 36:34Speaker 1: you know, get back to deep squads, pulling heavy from
- 36:36Speaker 1: the floor and everything else. So you know, it's just
- 36:40Speaker 1: looking forward to that. But I feel pretty good. My
- 36:44Speaker 1: body weight told him about two ninety five three hundred
- 36:46Speaker 1: pounds pretty consistently. I don't have to overeat, don't have
- 36:49Speaker 1: to do anything crazy. I'm still feeling pretty darn strong.
- 36:54Speaker 1: Just need to be smart about it, see what the
- 36:56Speaker 1: doc says, and then go from there. I want to
- 36:59Speaker 1: come back and squad over hundred next year and then
- 37:02Speaker 1: come back and do Masters.
- 37:03Speaker 4: I was going to do Masters this year, but trying
- 37:07Speaker 4: to train to get.
- 37:08Speaker 1: Down to do the deadlift medley because there's like five
- 37:13Speaker 1: bars I got to get down to really fast. My
- 37:16Speaker 1: hip's just not having it. I just cannot get down
- 37:19Speaker 1: and grab the bar quickly. I can get down and
- 37:20Speaker 1: grab the bar and get set and pull, and I
- 37:22Speaker 1: can pull great, but I can't run up and grab it.
- 37:26Speaker 1: Can't run up and grab it, can't run up and
- 37:28Speaker 1: grab it. It just won't do that anymore. So it
- 37:30Speaker 1: takes me too long to get down and get into set,
- 37:33Speaker 1: and then I can't really put my foot on the
- 37:35Speaker 1: brake and stuff like that as I'm driving for like.
- 37:38Speaker 4: Four days because it's excruciating.
- 37:40Speaker 1: And I'm going to get it fixed and then go
- 37:43Speaker 1: back to Travis has been very successful with his and
- 37:46Speaker 1: so is Jerry Pritchett and Ed Cohens. So I have
- 37:50Speaker 1: some very good role models and examples. I've seen what
- 37:53Speaker 1: they do post top and how they recover from them,
- 37:58Speaker 1: and as well as Gary as we her biceps as well,
- 38:03Speaker 1: and so now it's gonna be one of those things. Well,
- 38:05Speaker 1: I'll get it fixed and go right back to normal exactly.
- 38:08Speaker 3: And you know the one thing talking to every one
- 38:10Speaker 3: of those people that we talked that we just mentioned exactly,
- 38:15Speaker 3: and that understand that's the biggest thing that's been you know,
- 38:18Speaker 3: beating nine years like I'm doing it. I'm not putting
- 38:21Speaker 3: it off.
- 38:21Speaker 1: You know, I was going to try to put it
- 38:23Speaker 1: off till next May, and I'm just like, why why
- 38:29Speaker 1: I'm trying to lift my foot and put it on this.
- 38:31Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I already know I'm tough enough,
- 38:33Speaker 1: already can do all these things. Why am I beating
- 38:36Speaker 1: in my head into the wall. Exactly, I'm going to
- 38:38Speaker 1: get it fixed and then get right back to doing
- 38:40Speaker 1: what I can do, because exactly the new ones these days,
- 38:44Speaker 1: they're the new surgeries and the way they operate it
- 38:48Speaker 1: and replace it and fix everything up in there.
- 38:51Speaker 3: You're right back to normal and they're holding you know
- 38:54Speaker 3: what I'm saying that Travis is pulling heavy. Uh uh,
- 38:58Speaker 3: Jerry's pulling heavy, and Gary's pulling heavy. You know what
- 39:01Speaker 3: I'm saying, Like you know, they're all squatting, they're all
- 39:03Speaker 3: you know, It's like, okay, it's there.
- 39:06Speaker 4: Yeah, you know. So that's kind of the decision I
- 39:09Speaker 4: made with that, and I'm moving forward with it.
- 39:12Speaker 3: That's it, you know so what you know, like I said,
- 39:14Speaker 3: we talk about it now, but you know, we always
- 39:15Speaker 3: say we're going to document it, show it, so you know,
- 39:17Speaker 3: like everyone knows, you know, everything that's going on, Well
- 39:20Speaker 3: that's happening, you know, because it's you know as we
- 39:25Speaker 3: talk about it, understand it's still surgery. Surgery is always dangerous. Surgery,
- 39:29Speaker 3: you know, is surgery. But the thing is is it's
- 39:31Speaker 3: going to go smooth and we're going to make sure
- 39:33Speaker 3: that you guys can see it all right.
- 39:35Speaker 1: And I've had more than a few exams. I've come
- 39:39Speaker 1: back from all of them and better than I was,
- 39:41Speaker 1: or just as good as I was before I had
- 39:43Speaker 1: the surgery. So it's just one of those things. It's
- 39:46Speaker 1: it's if you're going to push the limits to an
- 39:49Speaker 1: elite world level, you're going to have issues.
- 39:53Speaker 3: Yes, I mean, you fix them, and then you get right.
- 39:56Speaker 1: Back on the horse and you keep going again and
- 39:58Speaker 1: you have fun. And you know there's gonna come a
- 40:02Speaker 1: day when I'm just I'm not gonna want to push
- 40:04Speaker 1: the heavy stuff anymore, the heavyweights and going crazy.
- 40:08Speaker 4: But it ain't today.
- 40:10Speaker 1: It's a long way off, So.
- 40:13Speaker 4: I'm gonna keep doing what I'm doing. I love doing it.
- 40:15Speaker 1: I live for the training process and going through all
- 40:18Speaker 1: that stuff, so I'm not gonna stop anytime soon.
- 40:22Speaker 4: So just get through this and then get on to
- 40:24Speaker 4: the next thing. I am pretty excited because.
- 40:26Speaker 1: Travis is coming to town because Nationals is here also
- 40:30Speaker 1: this weekend, so he's got a couple of guys he's coaching.
- 40:32Speaker 1: He's gonna stay here at my place. I'll get to
- 40:34Speaker 1: catch some training with Travis. And I just heard, you know,
- 40:38Speaker 1: Lucas is in town and wants a place to train.
- 40:42Speaker 1: I was like, well, just come over here. So he's
- 40:44Speaker 1: gonna come over here a little bit, you know, a
- 40:46Speaker 1: couple of training sessions in here. So I'm pretty excited
- 40:50Speaker 1: to see Lucas hatton. So that's gonna be a lot
- 40:52Speaker 1: of fun. And you know, it's just neat when friends play.
- 40:55Speaker 1: Hey man, where's a good place to train. I'm like,
- 40:58Speaker 1: I got all the equipment in my house.
- 40:59Speaker 3: When she's come here exactly, you know what I'm saying,
- 41:03Speaker 3: that's the one thing. That's the one thing. When you
- 41:05Speaker 3: got the equipment, you can get it done.
- 41:08Speaker 4: Yeah, oh for sure.
- 41:09Speaker 3: So oh yeah, well, you know, like I say, with
- 41:12Speaker 3: everything going on and everything we're talking about, you know,
- 41:16Speaker 3: things are going in a great direction, and that's what
- 41:18Speaker 3: we like.
- 41:19Speaker 4: You know what, I'm.
- 41:20Speaker 3: Constantly pushing forward, taking the negatives, turning them into positives.
- 41:24Speaker 3: And guess what, that's what's happening. You know what I'm
- 41:29Speaker 3: always happy to hear when because, like I said, me
- 41:31Speaker 3: and Nick talk on a regular basis and just you know,
- 41:34Speaker 3: chit chat about everyday life. And that's what I like
- 41:37Speaker 3: because well, you know, you know what, there's life's going.
- 41:39Speaker 4: To throw things that are rough at you all the time.
- 41:41Speaker 4: I mean all the time.
- 41:45Speaker 1: There's very rarely going to break up when everything's working
- 41:48Speaker 1: perfect on the face. But all you can do is
- 41:52Speaker 1: make your life the best you can and just be
- 41:55Speaker 1: the best to you. And that's why I say that
- 41:57Speaker 1: train hard, train smart, be the best you that you
- 41:59Speaker 1: can be, and that's all we can ever do. And
- 42:02Speaker 1: that's what I try to do. And am I perfect? Nope,
- 42:05Speaker 1: I'm not even close. But I do the best I
- 42:07Speaker 1: can to be the best person I can and some
- 42:11Speaker 1: days better than others. But you know what, most of
- 42:13Speaker 1: the time, I try to be the best media that
- 42:15Speaker 1: I can be. That's it, It's all I can do.
- 42:18Speaker 3: That's all you can It's all anyway, Yeah, that's it.
- 42:20Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, it's it's worse to live by.
- 42:22Speaker 3: And that's one of those things, you know what I'm saying,
- 42:24Speaker 3: a lot of people, I want to know your philosophy
- 42:26Speaker 3: on life a lot of people want to know your
- 42:28Speaker 3: philosophy and trainer, A lot of people want to know, like,
- 42:31Speaker 3: you know, how do you stay as positive as you do?
- 42:35Speaker 3: And that's one of those things because it's a choice.
- 42:37Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's a choice you choose where your head
- 42:40Speaker 1: goes nobody else. There's only one person that can get
- 42:44Speaker 1: in your head.
- 42:45Speaker 4: That's you.
- 42:46Speaker 1: And you have to let somebody do that to you.
- 42:50Speaker 1: You have to let somebody, you know, get put you
- 42:54Speaker 1: through a bad day. You have to let somebody give
- 42:57Speaker 1: you a bad attitude. You have to let somebody make
- 42:59Speaker 1: you feel down. You have to get that in and
- 43:01Speaker 1: let you let yourself feel that way. Am I saying
- 43:05Speaker 1: go through life without any emotion? No?
- 43:07Speaker 4: Not, what's what?
- 43:08Speaker 1: No, you need experience. Your emotion is a good thing.
- 43:12Speaker 1: But what I am saying is is when people get
- 43:15Speaker 1: you down, staying down.
- 43:16Speaker 4: That's up to you.
- 43:18Speaker 1: And at the end of the day, the person in
- 43:19Speaker 1: the mirror that you look at every morning is the
- 43:21Speaker 1: one responsible for everything that happens to you. And if
- 43:24Speaker 1: you go out with a bad attitude and thinking about things, yeah,
- 43:27Speaker 1: you're gonna get exactly what you're going after. You can
- 43:29Speaker 1: get a lot of bad things happening to you. If
- 43:30Speaker 1: you go out with a good attitude, a lot of
- 43:32Speaker 1: good things, a lot more good things are going to
- 43:35Speaker 1: happen to you and go out with a good attitude
- 43:37Speaker 1: than otherwise. Are there going to be people that no
- 43:39Speaker 1: matter what you do, you're just not gonna make them happy.
- 43:42Speaker 1: But you know what, you just move on, Just get
- 43:47Speaker 1: away from them and move.
- 43:49Speaker 4: On in your own direction.
- 43:50Speaker 1: You know.
- 43:51Speaker 3: That's it. That's it.
- 43:53Speaker 1: Happy and do the things in life that help you
- 43:57Speaker 1: move forwards, that make you a better you.
- 44:01Speaker 4: That's it.
- 44:02Speaker 3: It's simple, that is it.
- 44:05Speaker 1: As long as we're always trying to be a better
- 44:07Speaker 1: us at the end of the day, that's all you
- 44:09Speaker 1: can do.
- 44:10Speaker 3: Exactly all you can do. Oh you know, I had
- 44:13Speaker 3: one question for you, Nick, and this will probably be
- 44:15Speaker 3: the last what we end on. For those who know,
- 44:18Speaker 3: Nick's got a huge truck, and I know he was
- 44:21Speaker 3: working on some modifications. I didn't know if you got
- 44:23Speaker 3: them done or not because he didn't send me no pictures.
- 44:26Speaker 4: Oh yeah, sorry, Uh.
- 44:30Speaker 1: Yeah. So I put tail lights on the car, makes
- 44:33Speaker 1: a big difference. And then I put new headlights on
- 44:36Speaker 1: the car because the two thousand headlights are like milked
- 44:42Speaker 1: out and so it's the yellow turn signals and Alex,
- 44:46Speaker 1: you can't see anything. Alex pretty bad. So yeah, LJ
- 44:51Speaker 1: helped me yesterday and we got those done. And then
- 44:53Speaker 1: I had kind of messed up the bumper because I
- 44:56Speaker 1: got a big wench and stuff on the front of
- 44:58Speaker 1: it and realized, no matter what you do, some things
- 45:01Speaker 1: you can't do by yourself completely. Yeah, the wench and
- 45:08Speaker 1: the bumper and the stuff that that's attached to is
- 45:10Speaker 1: a little too heavy to line.
- 45:12Speaker 4: Up all by yourself.
- 45:14Speaker 1: Because we got we got all the we got the
- 45:16Speaker 1: lights replaced, all the things done. We we realign the bumper.
- 45:21Speaker 1: I walk up, I pick up the bumper and pull
- 45:23Speaker 1: it right in a position. Out goes the screw that
- 45:26Speaker 1: I put in backwards because I could incomes, then puts
- 45:30Speaker 1: the other one back in, puts that one back in.
- 45:35Speaker 1: Everything washers on, stints, put in into place, zip and
- 45:40Speaker 1: done in like a minute. Half alls it took was
- 45:45Speaker 1: to lift the thing up completely with with two hands,
- 45:49Speaker 1: not one hand, and trying to do the wrench on
- 45:54Speaker 1: the side. I needed two hands, So but it was cool.
- 45:58Speaker 1: I got we got it up and got it on there.
- 46:00Speaker 1: So LJ did a great job helping me. I really
- 46:02Speaker 1: appreciate that nice.
- 46:04Speaker 4: And I got some new looking headlights on the truck
- 46:07Speaker 4: and it looks better.
- 46:08Speaker 3: That's good.
- 46:09Speaker 4: It's thanks driving great. I love the things. So it's
- 46:11Speaker 4: it's a lot of fun.
- 46:13Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you know you know when Nick's when your
- 46:16Speaker 3: truck got stolen a Sacramento. I got to help you
- 46:18Speaker 3: buy the first one you got and then now then
- 46:20Speaker 3: then you got to buy the second one. So I
- 46:22Speaker 3: was like, all right, you know what I'm saying, a
- 46:24Speaker 3: little bit of teamwork here.
- 46:25Speaker 1: It was, well, I watched what you went through. You're
- 46:28Speaker 1: much better. I'm good at lifting stuff. I'm not a
- 46:30Speaker 1: great mechanic, though. It's it's always good to dabble into
- 46:33Speaker 1: other things and learn other things and do new experiences,
- 46:36Speaker 1: and you can do yourself.
- 46:37Speaker 4: Do yourself.
- 46:38Speaker 1: But I learned a lot from Ben on how to
- 46:41Speaker 1: look at the truck. And this one came back and
- 46:43Speaker 1: I think I did all right with this one.
- 46:45Speaker 3: You did exactly exactly well, Nick, thank you for updating
- 46:50Speaker 3: us with everything. And you know, like I said, we
- 46:52Speaker 3: we we've covered quite a bit today. You know, one
- 46:55Speaker 3: more time, ri ip to Charlie Kirk and his family
- 47:01Speaker 3: is false prayers, you know, everything for them and you know,
- 47:08Speaker 3: and their loss, you know exactly.
- 47:12Speaker 1: I don't think anybody from any political party or from
- 47:15Speaker 1: anything deserves that ever, especially especially people that haven't hurt.
- 47:20Speaker 3: Anyone exactly, you know. And I never want to see
- 47:23Speaker 3: anybody die in any kind of way, you know what
- 47:25Speaker 3: I'm saying. You know, it's just it's one of those things.
- 47:28Speaker 3: And you know, like I said, this is it's heartfelt
- 47:31Speaker 3: because like I said, this is emotional, this is fresh,
- 47:33Speaker 3: this is from today, so you know, it's pretty crazy.
- 47:37Speaker 4: But we'll try to keep politics out of it for
- 47:39Speaker 4: the most part.
- 47:40Speaker 3: We track.
- 47:43Speaker 1: My apologies if if you didn't like it, but I'm
- 47:46Speaker 1: really sorry, but I just it's you don't want to
- 47:52Speaker 1: see anyone suffer.
- 47:55Speaker 3: We don't want to see any kind of track.
- 47:56Speaker 1: I don't want to see Rosie o'donald suffer. I don't
- 47:58Speaker 1: want to see you know, the the people from the
- 48:04Speaker 1: view or anybody else. I don't want to see even
- 48:07Speaker 1: though I don't just don't agree with them, I don't
- 48:09Speaker 1: want to see any harm become to them. Yeah, I
- 48:12Speaker 1: don't want to see any harm become to anyone.
- 48:16Speaker 3: Yeah, anyway, but go ahead and take us out.
- 48:20Speaker 1: That being said, I hope you guys have a great week.
- 48:22Speaker 1: I hope you come out with everything with a positive
- 48:25Speaker 1: mental attitude and as always, train hard, train smart, and
- 48:29Speaker 1: be the best you can be. And just know we
- 48:30Speaker 1: love you all and thank you for just everything I
- 48:36Speaker 1: really do. Without you, we have nothing, so thank you.
- 48:38Speaker 1: I hope you guys have a great day. I hope
- 48:41Speaker 1: things get better today and enjoy have a good either.
- 48:46Speaker 4: Thank you.
