  Speaker 2: You guys get to ask us some questions, questions, not
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: really more Nick, Yeah.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: We're going to get into that right now. This is
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: clearly somebody who works on a computer. So do, Nick,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: I've got neck and shoulder stiffness from long hours on
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: my computer and phone. It's difficult to turn my head smoothly.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: Is there any exercises or gym equipment that can help
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: with this? Thank you very much. There's a few things
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: actually you can do with this. You really can. One
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: is send an alarm on your phone. Have it go
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: off about every forty five minutes, and stand up and
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: move your head around. Stretch your head right, stretch it left,
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: turn it right, turn it left, move it up and down.
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: Do nekerells and stuff like that. Do some shoulder shrugs,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: lean forward, shrug up, stand up, shrug this way. Do
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: some road backwards stuff like that that will loosen me
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: up a little bit. You know, you need to take
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: about a minute and a half two minutes to do it,
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: and then you can sit back down and go back
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: to work. You know, maybe go for a walk, go
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: go grab a drink of water real quick, and do
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: all do those exercises and then go grab a water,
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: come back and then get back to what you were doing.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: That will help probably more literally more than anything. It's
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: just sitting there not moving for that extreme length of time.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: That's causing the problem. Now you can do things to
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: train your neck quite a bit. You can get a
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: towel and put it around your head and then pull
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: pull back with your head. You can also hold it
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: here and pull your head forwards, and you can hold
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: it here and go right and you can go left.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: That'll strengthen your neck up a little bit to where
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: you're moving it around. It'll get it stronger, and that
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: will also help quite a bit. But the biggest thing
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: is going to be just setting an alarm and moving
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: moving your body about every forty five minutes to an
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: hour at most. Yeah, and just just taking a quick,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: like three minute break and doing that. It'll make a
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: big difference on the way everything goes And no matter what,
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: when that phone goes off, you do it. So set
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: the alarms on your phone, do that and it'll help
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: you quite a bit. Good luck with that, but yeah,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: it'll help you a lot more than you would think.
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'll throw my own two cents on that,
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: because I am somebody who sits in a chair and
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: is on a computer a ridiculous amount of dime during
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: the day. Posture posture, posture, proper sitting, proper chair, ergonomic equipment.
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: It is available, and guess what it does help? So
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying.
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: All of a sudden, I start slouching, all of a sudden,
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: I start leaning, and then all of a sudden, I
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: got a stiff neck.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Yeah, get an ewin chair. You won't do that in
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: that thing, you really will. It's a pretty amazing chair
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: and it holds a lot of weight. We hould somebody
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: up to five hundred pounds. But it's got some memory
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: foam headpiece and stuff like that, and it's it's pretty rigid.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: It'll keep you in a good position as well. All right.
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: Question two? All right, if the History Channel asks you
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: to film a second season today with the same cast,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: oh absolutely wouldn't do it with any other guys. Yeah,
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: what historical feet or location would you want to tackle next?
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: We were supposed to do Louis here, and we all
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: wanted to do Louis here. We really did. We were
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: getting ready to do a train pull and then do
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: the one finger five hundred pound block lift and the
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: other guys, the other guys, we're gonna do the overhead
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: lift with the dumbell. I was gonna watch that way. Yeah,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: but just because it's just that. Yeah, but we're gonna
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: do that, and we kind of thought that was gonna
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: be a great one. So we go up to Canada
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and doing Louis her That would have been great. And
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: then I know the plan was to go over to
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: Iceland and do the stones like the Husseveld and like
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: a lot of the other famous stones that they have there. Yeah,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: I think we were going back to Scotland to do
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: a bunch of their stones as well, and then we
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: were going to do like a Pallen in France and
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: some other I think somebody else in France. We had
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: like the whole season planned out ready to go. Most
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: of it was in Europe, though it was Canada, and
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: then most of it was gonna be in Europe. So
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: that was cool, But unfortunately Ruth and Jenny didn't want
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: to run this, didn't want to sign the papers for
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: us to do it. So yeah, to.
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: Tear right now, that sounds like a great season in
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: just what you were talking about, because like there's so
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: many things.
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you guys have touched on you know what
• 6:01
  Speaker 3: I'm saying.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: That'd have been awesome. You know, see, Martin's not that
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: long ago. You know, he took a little bit of
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: time off from the world Strongest Man and from Man
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: and he actually toured the world a little bit on
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: a little bit of a YouTube channel and uh yeah,
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: he was doing huge lists in all these other iconic
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: places too.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: It's like, if we could have got the backstory of
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: the way the Strongest Man of History was set up,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: that would have been just a joy to watch. So
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: I like the world has missed out and lost.
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, because some people don't like positive male role models
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: and they don't know the difference between you know, real
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: men and uh oh, what the hell did they what
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: the hell came out of their mouths? Toxic males?
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Oh god, you know, you know the whole conversation that
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: could be that, you know what I'm saying.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: They didn't know I heard. But the first episode I
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: heard the one say that, I was like, yeah, I'm
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: going all out on everything because I don't know how much.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: So that's that's why I went crazy the way I did.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: Yeah, well, you know, like I said, it's it's uh,
• 7:24
  Speaker 3: you know.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: You know that, Yeah, if you if you're not a
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: dumb TV dad, you're a toxic male.
• 7:31
  Speaker 3: And that's just how they paint that. You know what
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: I'm saying.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly exactly, it's insane, you know what I'm saying.
• 7:40
  Speaker 2: They wouldn't know a healthy male figure if it bit
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: him in the butt.
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Uh probably not, but hey whatever, exactly. Yeah, all they
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: had to do was sign it. The budget was there,
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: it was the same budget, everything was the same, We
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: had everything lined out. Also had to do is sign
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: and they're like, oh, well maybe we'll come of look
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: back in the spring, and that's what we have it.
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: So yeah, you know, yeah, a lot and a lot
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: of people still film during COVID.
• 8:10
  Speaker 3: You just get some people that, like I said, you
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: know yeah, and there's a.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: Quote there was one of the biggest questions and ask
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: you get no matter where we go. And like I said,
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: I'm always heavily on this because uh did they always
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: ask every.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: Fan when are we getting to say?
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: It's been so long as it is now, you know
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: what I'm saying, And you still to this day people
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: ask for a second season, you know what I'm saying.
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: And I think all of us would still do it too.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: It's good take me by six months to recover to
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: get strong again, but yeah, I definitely do that.
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: So it's made a lot of memories and a lot
• 8:53
  Speaker 2: of highlights and really brought strong Man to a good
• 8:58
  Speaker 2: turning point where it was more like a Strongman has
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: always been on Christmas, and you're going to see it
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: when you're flipping through channels, you know.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: Like I said, for those who are Strongman fans.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: We got a lot of attention to a lot for sure,
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: like more than I think anybody else has managed to
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: do in that time frame.
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: So all your guys' careers, yeah, yeah, next.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: Level, Yeah, it's yeah, it's just so amazing. It was great.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: And then we were in the top fifteen. For of
• 9:32
  Speaker 1: the shows in the top fifteen, one was in the
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: top two were in the top twenty, and then we
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: had one that was twenty five. But that was the
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: night of the Democratic debates, so Yellowstone, which was number one,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: dropped to number eight that day. So if we moved
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: up eight spaces top you know, fifteen, top twenty again anyway,
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: so we should have got four seasons right out of
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: the gate and just kept running right on. Yeah, that's
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: the way it goes, and there's nothing we can do.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: We go Some people just hate on greatness and that's
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: what happens.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it sucks. It sucks.
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: Well, if there's any studio executives listening, and I will
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: always throw it out either let's get us a second
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: season and get us some good old American boys to
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: help put this on.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well that would be the History Channel since they
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: want the rights to it.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: So, you know, like I said, hey, and it never
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: hurts to throw it out there, and because.
• 10:31
  Speaker 1: Someone might, we still want to do it.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: There you go, there you go.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: But no, so it's it's anyway, yeah not it is
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: what it is.
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: But you know what we kind of deviated from the
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: question because, like I said, the locations, the historical feeds.
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: You know, if is.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: There what I talked about, name one, like you can think.
• 10:55
  Speaker 2: In your head that is, like I said, we want
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: to want to Yeah, the biggest one what what?
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: What?
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: What? Strong man feet?
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: Would it be? Though? From him it would be one
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: trying to pull the U the steam engine, the train engine,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: and then the other one would be I wanted. I
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: wanted to see. I think I can probably do that
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: one finger lift that he did. There you go, it's
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: five hundred pounds with one finger. Excuse me? Yeah, maybe
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: maybe it is. Yeah, got it? So I wanted to
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: try I wanted to try that one. That's why that
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: way away from the microphone.
• 11:35
  Speaker 3: But well maybe a way for to mimic it.
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: Well yeah, but not damn need to be smart about
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: these things. Yeah, but yeah, So it's just that's it
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: is what it is. But we got stuff coming down
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: the road that we're gonna be at. I'm gonna be
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: at the Olympia Expo. It just got back from the
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: Home Gym Con on which was absolutely amazing. I mean,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: if if you go to one conn of year, that's
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: when you got to go hit because it's not like
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: going to the ones at the Arnold or at the
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: Olympia stuff like that. It's a different, completely different vibe. Yeah.
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: And they had a strong man contest in this this year.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: They had a powerful the media in this and it
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: this year which they had a strong man contests, and
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: I think they had both of them in it last year.
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: It's just they're both more prevalent this year, which is
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: which was great focused on. Yeah, so it was neat.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: Brian was there this year, so that was cool. The
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: Bear Steel booth was right next to his boost, so
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: got to go over and say hi to him. And
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: t s him a little bit on his h his
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: new leanness, which was fun. He looked great. He really
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: did look great. It was it was fun to kind
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: of tease him a little bit. But yeah, you look
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: hungry man. Exactly. That was the crazy thing because on
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: the TV show and he get hungry, he'd just be angry.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: And I was like, how are you dealing with that, dude,
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: because you are not fun to be around when you're hungry.
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: He's like, well, we're learning how to deal with that.
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: I was like, okay, exactly.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: Well you know that he ain't got to carry the
• 13:12
  Speaker 3: mass anymore, so well, it's not smart.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: It was carrying that. Yeah.
• 13:17
  Speaker 3: Well that's the thing too.
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: It's like he had to learn how to get that big,
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: and now he's got to learn how to get down
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: back down.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I mean, which is why I never tried
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: to get much more than like three twenty three twenty five,
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: because anything over that and getting it back down when
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: I get, when I get. I was a lot older
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: than those guys, so I was like, yeah, I don't
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: want to be in my mid fifties or early sixties
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: trying to come down from like three fifty four hundred
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: pounds and there's not a whole lot of humans that
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: are in that weight range that are alive in their sixties.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: So I, you know, kept my weight three hundred pounds
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: right now when I get back to it because I've
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: put on I put like thirteen pounds back on since
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the surgery. Yeah, so that's good because I lost a
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: lot of weight. I could not eat with all the painkillers,
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: and then all the problems from the painkillers. I just
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: you're in pain, you don't feel like eating. Nothing works.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: So I was down to like the high tow sixties
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: and now I'm back to to eighty, and so it'll
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: be good. Tomorrow I go meet with their Infectious Disease
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: and they're gonna tell me whether or not I can
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: take the pick line out because I finished my antibiotics
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: at Antibiotics yesterday. Yay. Yeah, so no more IVY antibiotics.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: Going to the doctors. See what she says. If she
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: gives the thumbs up on that, then there will be
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: no more Intervenius antibiotics and they'll take the PIC. She'll
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: give me a prescription to have cicsue the home health
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: company come and take the pick line out up on Friday,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: and then I'll be free. Then I have to wait
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: two days for that to heal, and then I can
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: start actually lifting weights with my whole entire upper body again.
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: And then I've already started kind of doing light things
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: with my legs, working on stretching and just range of
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: motion as much as I can. Yeah, still doing pt
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: which I'm an inch taller. So it's it's funny because
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: being installer, that means the bones and all the stuff
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: had shrunk down. So when they put the full sized thing,
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: you know, prosthetics in there and got me back to
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: my normal height, all the tenons of ligaments got pulled tight,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: like super tight. So it's and they're really strong, so
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: it's going to take a lot to get them to
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: loosen up. And so it's something I have to work
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: on two or three times a day, every single day
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: now to just slowly get that range of motion back.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: And I've gotten about four inches back, you know, trying
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: to get towards my toes, which is good. And I'm
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: starting to get some range of motion back and some
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: depth as I come down and squat, so I'm starting
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: to be able to like get down to a chair
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: without having to drop into the chair. Yeah, it's just
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: kind of nice or like lower myself in dip wise
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: into the chair. So that part it's going good. And
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: it's just could be keeping good attitude, positive attitude, positive mindset,
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: and then just going through the process every single day.
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: The Home Gym Con was absolutely amazing. I was you know,
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: I probably walked ten miles between both the airport or
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: about three of the airports I was in and the
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: Home Gym Con and then going out to eat with
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: the guys and stuff like that afterwards. The guys at
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: Bear Steel are are absolutely amazing, so it was a
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: lot of fun. We had a great time, and some
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: of the new equipment that they're coming out with is
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: just off the hook. I got to sit here and
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: talk to Steve and he's like the guy who fabricates
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: their equipment and stuff like that, and I'm throwing stuff
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: at him and he's throwing stuff at me. We got
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: along really good and like designing or just talking about
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: things we'd like to see in pieces of equipment and
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: stuff like that. So, oh, yeah, it's pretty cool. I'm
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: really excited. So they're supposed to be yeah, and they're
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: supposed to be at the Olympia this year, so I'll
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: probably go work their booth at the Olympia this year too,
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: so that's gonna be a lot of fun. And then
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: I think we'll probably go shooting while they're here, so
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: that'll also be a lot of fun. That's it. So
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: looking forward to that. And then I'm gonna probably take
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: a trip to Columbus and stop buying see datate at
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: some point trying to get that scheduling worked out. I'm
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: gonna work with you on that tomorrow. Yeah, so that'll
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: be kind of cool. And then OSG that'll be in November,
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: gonna go down to that. I'll probably I'm just gonna
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: judge this year, I won't be ready, but the following year,
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: maybe judge. Maybe you compete so.
• 18:28
  Speaker 2: Well and here's one of those things you you'll be
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: prepared and we'll have a much better or because I said,
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: your fucking brand new lease on life right now, new here.
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: No I know, I know, And then I have to
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: find what basically I had to just keep working on
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: it and get to my new normal, find out where
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: my new normal is, and just to improve from there,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: which I will. So it's feeling better every day. Things
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: are getting a lot easier. I don't need this step
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: still to get in the truck anymore. I can actually
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: get in the truck now, which I'm very happy about.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: And then the same thing with getting it out of
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: my shower, because it's got like a foot thing that
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: you got to get over to get into it. Yeah,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: so I don't have to put one on the inside
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: and one of the outside and walk up two stairs
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: and down two stairs get in the shower. So things
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: like that are getting a lot easier and a lot better.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Fly on the plane wasn't that bad. The commuter plane
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: was not very comfortable, but the regular planes were just fine. Yeah.
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: Plus the stewardesses let me get up and walk around
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: as much as I needed, so that was great. Yeah.
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: So it's a good trip. It really was.
• 19:35
  Speaker 3: It sounds like a good trip.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: And for most people, gym Con is a place where
• 19:40
  Speaker 2: everything gym related.
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: Gym home, gym related. Yes, it's all related.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: So like when you go there, you're going to get
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: a lot of vendors that are selling specialized equipment for
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: those who need to maximize space or need a multipurpose
• 19:56
  Speaker 2: you know, the training, because that's what it's coming down to, Like.
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: It's not stuff for commercial gem and it's stuff for
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: to the people that are putting gyms in their garage
• 20:05
  Speaker 1: and stuff like that. So it's pretty neat. Like they
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: had a tricep pushdown machine that was in a you know,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: three foot by two foot you know area, and it
• 20:16
  Speaker 1: was a very good one. Their equipment was one to one.
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: So when you push down on the weight stack it,
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: you got the whole one sixty at the bottom of
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: the fence.
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: You're feeling it.
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: Yes, it doesn't have the table you're like sitting you're
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: doing this at like the regular gyms on the cable
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: crossover machine. It's like, no, no, no, that's only a part
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: of the weight. It's not one to one. It's probably
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: two to one. Yeah. But and I was like, well,
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: if you stull the top out about six inches and
• 20:46
  Speaker 1: you could put a bench here and then put a
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: thing for your knees on the bench, you can do
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: low rows from it. You can do lap pulldowns from it,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: you can do bicep curls from it, you can do
• 20:56
  Speaker 1: high poles from it. And He's just like like this
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: because you can stand it up and put it into
• 21:01
  Speaker 1: the machine. So fit in that three foot area, or
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: you can put it on the side of the machine
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: while you're doing everything else, and that's it. It was
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: pretty neat. He's like, oh, I like this idea. I
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: was like, yeah, it's it's good to get multiple uses
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: out of equipment. So it was it was a pretty
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: neat thing. I can't wait to see them build this
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: thing because it's gonna be pretty sweet. That's it. So
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: pretty excited about that, exactly.
• 21:26
  Speaker 2: And it seems to be in the same place every
• 21:27
  Speaker 2: year too, so that that is yeah. Yeah, yeah, So
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: you know, it's a nice little area, nice where it's at.
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: You know what, I always say, one of these one
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: of these years, I'm gonna go with you.
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, well probably next year for sure, exactly exactly, because
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: I think that'll be good. But oh yeah, yeah, you.
• 21:49
  Speaker 3: Know, the Home Gym com was good.
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: But I do want to talk a little bit of
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: the Olympia. I have a small list and like I said,
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: and I always like to talk about Olympia because I
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: am a bodybuilding fan. Yeah, and so far, uh, we
• 22:06
  Speaker 2: have Derek Lunsford, who's the ring champin Yeah, Martin Fitzwater.
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: Martin Fitzwater is uh, he's not up and coming. He's
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: been in the circuit, but he is someone I am
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: starting to like. He has a great physique, a great attitude,
• 22:27
  Speaker 2: and I just.
• 22:27
  Speaker 3: Like how he presents himself. So that's someone to watch
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: out for.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: We have Sean Clarita, which is he's the giant killer,
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. Yeah, you know, he when
• 22:36
  Speaker 2: he the last two twelve he won, he went up
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: against or he was standing next to Brian Shaw and
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: so we remember how that picture went. So but also understand, I,
• 22:49
  Speaker 2: you know, I do like Sean.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: He you know, he's a small guy.
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: But he's on the head right, Yeah, exactly.
• 22:59
  Speaker 2: And then of course we have uh Brandon Curry, former
• 23:02
  Speaker 2: mister Olympia Nick Walker, who's not like I said, he's
• 23:06
  Speaker 2: the mutant. I think he's not gotten a fair shake
• 23:10
  Speaker 2: at any of the shows. He just won his UH
• 23:12
  Speaker 2: qualification a week ago, but uh, you know, he just
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: every time he steps on stage for Olympia, he just
• 23:20
  Speaker 2: barely doesn't make it.
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: And I, you know, I think he just needs to
• 23:24
  Speaker 3: keep grinding it out.
• 23:25
  Speaker 2: Dial really like lock it in, dial it in, which
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: he's been you know, so he hasn't done any major
• 23:30
  Speaker 2: shows except for the last one to get the qualification
• 23:33
  Speaker 2: for the Olympia.
• 23:35
  Speaker 3: So you know, I definitely want to see him set
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: it up and then.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: Aesthetics that kills him. Yeah, so God like Dorian figured
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: it out. He managed to a hundred person so big
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: in certain areas and his wais down. So yeah, if
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: he figures out how to do all the thing is
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: that he's doing and then bring his waist down a little.
• 24:02
  Speaker 2: Bit exactly, and and even to waste control, because that
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: waste exactly that that's what hurts a lot of That's
• 24:11
  Speaker 2: what hurts him the vote. It's just waste control.
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: Staying tired. It would be one of those things where
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: you just sit there squeezing your abs for the whole
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: entire stage.
• 24:21
  Speaker 2: Exactly exactly and being hard to breathe. Oh my god,
• 24:24
  Speaker 2: I can only imagine, you know, exactly. We also have
• 24:30
  Speaker 2: Samson Dauta who's a former Mister Olympia, and William Bownak,
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: another former Mister Olympian. So like and like I said,
• 24:38
  Speaker 2: there's a whole bunch of other people on here I
• 24:39
  Speaker 2: haven't mentioned, but I'm just mentioning the big dogs that
• 24:42
  Speaker 2: I like to follow. I like to watch, and so
• 24:45
  Speaker 2: you know, unfortunately you know, we have a good friend Akim.
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: He's not in the running, so but it is what
• 24:52
  Speaker 2: it is. But uh, I like the set up. There's
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: still a few more weeks, Like like I said, September
• 24:57
  Speaker 2: is right around the corner, so you know, anybody, anybody
• 25:01
  Speaker 2: can still show up. So I'm definitely waiting, willing, and
• 25:04
  Speaker 2: wanting to see what's going to be happening. So, like
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: I said, I always like going to the Olympia. I
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: was like going to the you know, we never really
• 25:09
  Speaker 2: go to the Yumpy. We're always at the expo. But
• 25:12
  Speaker 2: I do enjoy the expo.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: Was shot the expo.
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, oh my god, that's it.
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: That's it. I just want to go, get off my feet,
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: get some food exactly, and really just decompressed, Zach. But
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: you know, that's how it always goes, you know what
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: I'm saying.
• 25:34
  Speaker 2: So you know, is there anything else you'd like to cover, Nick,
• 25:38
  Speaker 2: because I think we're covering.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think Colton just totaled like twenty seven hundred
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: pounds there you go, which is pretty amazing. He squatted
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: a thousand bench i'd think a little over six hundred
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: and then pulled just about eleven hundred. It wasn't quiet.
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: But yeah, he's a strong kid, he really is.
• 26:02
  Speaker 3: And he's a strong kid for his error and the
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: style that they lift. It's not the same. It's not
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: the same. I mean, I guess what as of right down,
• 26:12
  Speaker 3: that's what they do.
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: Right well, you know what it's The thing is is
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: you want to take the place of these guys that
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: were there before and say you're stronger than they were. Well,
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: then there's one thing you can do. You can go
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: do it the way they did. You can walk your
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: squad out yep. Instead of doing not a monolift, dude,
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: not a jacks like you should be. You can use
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: the same bar for all three lifts. Yep. Somehow I
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: got a feeling that close to eleven hundred pounds deadlift
• 26:45
  Speaker 1: is going to be a lot closer to the low
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: nines mid nines because that bar is only give maybe
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: one inch, yeah, instead of giving four to five, And
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: that's going to make a massive difference on the total.
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: You know, if you compare Eddie's squat and his bench
• 27:06
  Speaker 1: to Colton, it's Eddie was a lot lighter, so it's
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: it's yeah, but it's that extra massive deadlift that they're
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: getting from the from the deadlift bars that didn't used
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: to be there.
• 27:21
  Speaker 3: Well, it's bending up to your knees before it's off
• 27:24
  Speaker 3: the ground.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and that that's and then and then it snaps
• 27:27
  Speaker 1: when it comes up. So if you do it right
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: and pull on it just right, it'll get you past
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: your knees and then you just gotta lock it up.
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: I like I said, I would like to see how
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: strong they like truly are comparison to the old guys.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: I would love to see a meet with these With
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: the new guys, the only one that's close is Jzeu's
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: and Jesus does all the things that he's a beast.
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: That guy, I will say, because he squats in the
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: same baryep that he benches and deadlifts with. He's yeah,
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: that's he's coming out of jack stands and he has
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: two hour WANs. Now I want to see a lot
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: of I would love to see this generation figure out
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: how to do this with two hour WANs. So I
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: mean his Zeus was, it's just what hats off to him?
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: He tolls twenty six hundred pounds with a two hour
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: wayan with walking the squat back and then deadlifting on
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: a bar that just doesn't bend. So that's that's pretty cool.
• 28:34
  Speaker 1: And Colton's still ungodly strong. I'd just love to see
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: him do the rule under those rules, just to see
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: where he truly is, because you can't compare them. You know,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: the one deadlifter, I forgot the guy's name, but he
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: also deadlift like high thousands with the with the double
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: hook grip and stuff like that. And it wasn't Jamal,
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: it was. It was a different guy. And he made
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: the mistake of wearing Adidas socks. Yeah, he's got the
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: three lines on the socks, and the bar was below
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: the three lines when he started pulling on it.
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: And these are deadlift, so people understand.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: That the bar was over the three lines when it
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: finally came off the floor. That's that's not That just
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: ruins the integrity of the lift. It turns into something
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: completely different than what it is. And you know, it's
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: just a shame that, you know, the the power lifting
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: alphabet suit succumbed to that. But everybody wants to do
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: more weight at whatever cost, and so they're we're gonna
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: change the equipment because we're deadlife more weight on it.
• 29:48
  Speaker 1: And it's like yeah, but and then you want to
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: be compared to like the old greats. It's like, just
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: the way they did it. It's real simple.
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: I mean it is.
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: Just do it the way they did it, and we
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: go okay, yes, this is comparable. It's this and that.
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: You know, you don't get to just sit in your
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: squat stance and not step back and not have to
• 30:13
  Speaker 1: waste all that energy and stuff walking it back. The
• 30:16
  Speaker 1: point is to be strong. That's how strong you are
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: wherever you go, whatever you do, no matter what. Yeah,
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: you know you're walking on the street. That's how strong
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: you are. You know, not like oh I got to
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: go put my shirt on or put my squat suit
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: on and they don't be able to have this kind
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: of power. No, it's it's to be walking around going okay,
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: yes I can pull your arm out of your socket
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: type of thing from the word go, I don't you
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: don't need anything else, and be athletic at the same time.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: The point of this, the point of being strong, is
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: to be able to do things with it. You know,
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: it's not just okay, well I just squatted eleven hundred pounds, yeah,
• 31:00
  Speaker 1: double plays can the squat.
• 31:01
  Speaker 4: Suit with grooverby so exactly so it's just that's just
• 31:06
  Speaker 4: me ranting. Hey, but that's thing too, is like that,
• 31:11
  Speaker 4: that's the opinion. That's just what it is, you know what.
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, Yeah, take it or leave it, that's it.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: But the good thing is is people are going in
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: they're lifting regardless and the training and they're doing stuff
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: like that. That's the good part. You know, you can
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: just to pay how the competitions go. But the big
• 31:33
  Speaker 1: thing is people go out, they lift, they exercise, they
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: do things. The people are still competing. You know.
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: Power is a deep sport. There's many federations. Everyone's going
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: to have their rules and their regulations.
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: Well, but that's the problem with it. But that's the
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: problem with power off thing.
• 31:51
  Speaker 3: That's why it always struggles is this.
• 31:53
  Speaker 1: Group of guys get mad that they didn't like something,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: so they just go form a whole nother federation and
• 31:59
  Speaker 1: it's just like it just adds another one to it.
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: Oh look, I got all these world records like yeah, yeah,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: but the federation hasn't been there fifty sixty years, and
• 32:13
  Speaker 1: you actually have like an all time world record which
• 32:17
  Speaker 1: you which you have is a record in this organization
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: that nobody's really lifted in and it's like.
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's almost like that Vegan strong Man that was
• 32:29
  Speaker 2: on that Uh yeah, you know what I'm saying, I
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: had the world I was like, yeah, yeah, exactly exactly,
• 32:37
  Speaker 2: No you.
• 32:37
  Speaker 1: Don't, but I mean, well it's and then now the trend.
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: Now the trend is is if you do a raw
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: class or you do whatever, well, I have the all
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: time world record in that, Like, no, you have the
• 32:51
  Speaker 1: world record in that you squatted more than everyone else
• 32:55
  Speaker 1: with a parentees leaves on raw, congratulations, but the all
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: time world record is the most ever done. Yep. Not
• 33:05
  Speaker 1: just well I got the all time record in the
• 33:06
  Speaker 1: weight class with Niice Leeves and this and that, and like, well,
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: it's one of two things. You either outsquatted everybody in
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: the two twenties everywhere in the face of the planet. Yeah,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: which would probably be more like a Cohen at nine
• 33:20
  Speaker 1: to sixty four. There might have been guys that have
• 33:22
  Speaker 1: done more and then which I doubt, or it's the
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: all time rack squad, which is over eleven hundred pounds
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: by the super heavyweights. Yeah, that's all time world records.
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: Like when I pulled the eight to fifteen in the
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: deadlift over the age of fifty. That was the all
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: time world record in the deadlift at that time. I
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: guess the guy came came in a couple months ago
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: and beat me by eleven pounds, congratulations, But I was
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: still the first one to ever do it. I'll always
• 33:55
  Speaker 1: be the first one to ever do it. And then
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: total wise, I totaled twenty one eighty two, which is
• 34:00
  Speaker 1: the all time world record in over the age of fifty,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: regardless of federation, regardless of equipment, stuff like that. So
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: that's the difference in the all time world records. Then
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: guys is trying to get over descriptive of the world.
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: They do have a world record, but it's not an
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: all time world record. You know, it might just because
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: you beat everybody in all the other federations. It's still
• 34:27
  Speaker 1: the world record in that category. But the all time
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: world record he is either the most ever squatted in
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: that weight class or the most ever squatted in that
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: category that you're lifting in. That would be what the
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: all time world records are. So anyway, that's just again.
• 34:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, the Spider Man movie is the
• 34:54
  Speaker 2: newest movie that just came out. My son went to
• 34:57
  Speaker 2: see it and it's on my I want to go
• 35:01
  Speaker 2: this weekend? Is there anything in the theater that you
• 35:05
  Speaker 2: want to go?
• 35:05
  Speaker 3: Check out? Nick?
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: Right now, there's not a whole lot that I want
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: to see. Maybe Spider Man, but a lot of the
• 35:14
  Speaker 1: other stuff.
• 35:15
  Speaker 3: I'm just like, eh, yeah, it guess what.
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: I'm definitely on the same page with that, because there
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: hasn't been anything enough to where I'm like, I need
• 35:25
  Speaker 2: to go everything I go, I can stream it at
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: home when it comes to theater or you when it hits.
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: These people running Hollywood now and the only thing I
• 35:37
  Speaker 1: can think is there bought and pay for and are
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: doing exactly what they're told to do. I can't think
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: the movie industry has like completely lost it and become
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: that detached from reality to where they constantly losing hundreds
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: of millions or even billions of dollars a year on
• 35:59
  Speaker 1: fail movie after failed movie that the public doesn't want
• 36:02
  Speaker 1: to watch. It has to be the hidden like investment
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: conglomerates and funds that you know, pick the chairman of
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: the board in the executive in the in the executive
• 36:19
  Speaker 1: meetings and stuff like that where they vote who's going
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: to run this and who's going to run that, and
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: they pick the president of the company and stuff like that.
• 36:27
  Speaker 1: It's got to be those people from behind the scenes
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: forcing their will onto these people in Hollywood, because I
• 36:37
  Speaker 1: refuse to believe that they can't see, know and understand this.
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: And I'm refused to believe that these people that are
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: shareholders of these companies don't just like lose their mind
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: and demand them to be removed. Don't care what their
• 36:53
  Speaker 1: contracts are or everything else. They're losing money at rate.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: Is cheaper to pay their parachute, their golden parachute than
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: to have do more movies. You know, Kathleen Kennedy and
• 37:03
  Speaker 1: ruining Star Wars, you know, the Star Wars franchise, just
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: about everything she's touched in the last ten fifteen years.
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: She should not be working in Hollywood. Shouldn't be No,
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: And if your investment in the companies like Disney and
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: stuff like that that she's in, if you're an individual stockholder,
• 37:26
  Speaker 1: you would be losing your mind. But if it's in
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: a portfolio where there's twenty other stocks in that account,
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: stocks in your portfolio, you could care less if Disney
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: loses as long as the portfolio is making money. You're
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: not paying attention to all the companies that are in
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: your portfolio. You're only paying attention. You know that the
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: portfolio makes money. And I think they're doing that from
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: you know, I think that's how they got in and
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: got controlled of these companies. And like Hollywood's lost because
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: of it, because it just it just keeps short circling.
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, Spider Man movies already made more than the
• 38:07
  Speaker 1: Super Supergirl movie, Like in the first weekend, it's completely
• 38:12
  Speaker 1: outperformed it and will actually turn a profit. Yeah, that's great.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: It's just like the what's his name Deadpool? Ye kind
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: of saved Marvel to a certain degree until this new Tay.
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and he follow on everything. You know what I'm saying.
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: You got to really think, like how much back and
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: forth that we heard. You know, Ryan was fighting it like, no,
• 38:39
  Speaker 2: this is how we're going to do it to create
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: that good movie, you know what I'm saying.
• 38:44
  Speaker 3: Right, he got what he wanted. The movie came out,
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: you know, and it it blew.
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: Up exactly and it worked. And yeah, a lot of
• 38:54
  Speaker 1: them knew it was going to work and just didn't
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: want him to make it work. So they just they
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: weren't in the he was in a position where he
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: had enough control to keep them at bay, and so
• 39:07
  Speaker 1: that's why it turned out the way he did. So
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: it's great to see the Spider Man movie do this.
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: I might go see it just because I've now seen
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: a few pirated scenes per se from the Supergirl movie,
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: and I was just like, yeah, yeah, I can see
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: why nobody went to go see it. Yeah, it was
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: so bad. You know, even even Lobo was like, you know,
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: and yeah, yeah, I like, I like Jason, and I.
• 39:43
  Speaker 2: Just the Lobo characters is the epitome of toxic masculinity
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: in any sense of the form, you know what I'm saying.
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: Yeah, but it was funny. But he was funny. I
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: mean it was like in the comic books, I think
• 40:00
  Speaker 1: he's trying to bring this lady in to to somebody.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: I forgot he had to bring her somewhere, and he
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: got tired of her kept trying to walk away. There
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: was no talk about what conditions she was in, so
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: he cut her legs off, yeah, and then put it
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: through on the back of the mic and she couldn't
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: get away anymore and solved this problem. So he's he's
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: just so over the top, like ridiculous top exactly ridiculous
• 40:30
  Speaker 1: and that really didn't come off from the movie from
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: the parts I saw.
• 40:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I can only assume that that's what the case
• 40:38
  Speaker 2: was going to be, because, like I said, you know,
• 40:40
  Speaker 2: just from Common and even the animated series with Superman,
• 40:45
  Speaker 2: the way they presented Lobo in those original cartoons from
• 40:48
  Speaker 2: the nineties, that was so over the top.
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: Mm hmm. It's just it's just disappointing.
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: Now it is like that.
• 40:59
  Speaker 2: Like I said, I just thought it was worth mentioning
• 41:01
  Speaker 2: because I said, Superman or Spider Man right now is
• 41:03
  Speaker 2: the biggest thing on the block. And my son, just
• 41:07
  Speaker 2: like I said, both my boys went to go check
• 41:09
  Speaker 2: it out yesterday. They came home and they were like,
• 41:12
  Speaker 2: you gotta see it. So I'm like, all right, all right,
• 41:15
  Speaker 2: if you're saying this, you know what I'm saying. And
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: they know how I am with spoilers, because like I
• 41:20
  Speaker 2: won't even watch a trailer until if I say I'm
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: gonna go see a movie. I won't look at a
• 41:25
  Speaker 2: trailer even when I see it pop up and so
• 41:28
  Speaker 2: instantly instantly I don't want no spoilers.
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's it, But yeah, I think that'll be
• 41:38
  Speaker 1: kind of interesting. It's just interesting to see how they're
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: roading Hollywood from the inside. And I just don't know
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: how these movie executives keep their job. I don't know
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: how the shareholders allow them to stay in place, other
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: than they don't have control of the company because the
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: big funds have the controlling shares of everything. So there's
• 42:02
  Speaker 1: nothing that they can do. They can't vote these people
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: out or put enough pressure on them to get them out.
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: That's the only thing I can think of. So anyway, okay, so.
• 42:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, we'll get off that subject. You know what I'm saying.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: It just is what it is. But I just can't
• 42:23
  Speaker 1: wait to get back to training.
• 42:25
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, And that's the whole thing, too, is
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: like you got a game plan set, You're ready to
• 42:29
  Speaker 2: get back on track. Your weight is going back up.
• 42:32
  Speaker 2: You you're you're walking better, you're moving better, you're standing better,
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: you're going you're you're easing into work transition. You are
• 42:42
  Speaker 2: are on the right path for this to go, you
• 42:44
  Speaker 2: know what I'm saying.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: So it's you know, and.
• 42:46
  Speaker 2: The one thing that we've discussed this entire time is
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: your your plan because you for you've thought this all
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: out before everything. You had a plan A and a
• 42:57
  Speaker 2: plan being a plan seat and you know, I know
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: you're written on that Plan C because uh, you know
• 43:02
  Speaker 2: we had you know, we had a little bit of
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: a bump in the road here.
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so little infection that plan plan adding goes planned
• 43:12
  Speaker 1: because the doctor didn't exactly describe well, he completely over
• 43:19
  Speaker 1: sold how fast well would up on my feet. Oh,
• 43:21
  Speaker 1: you'd be up on your feet in three days. No,
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: I was up on a walker in three days. That
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: doesn't count us up on my feet exactly. But he's
• 43:28
  Speaker 1: one of those guys. He's a great doctor, he really is.
• 43:31
  Speaker 1: He's awesome. But he's one of those people that are
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: so smart they it's it's challenging to communicate with.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: Which is okay, but yeah, they have a smart doctor
• 43:44
  Speaker 2: than a dumb doctor.
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: Correct, and I have a very smart one. But so
• 43:49
  Speaker 1: once we did figure out what the true recovery was
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: going to be, like, figured out the plan, has started
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: working it and that was plan B and Plan B
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: he went to the side when somehow Sunrise Hospital got
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: E cola in the operating room and it got into
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: my leg, so which I don't know how that happens,
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: but yeah, and so at week six had to go
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: open my right hip back up, clean it all out, reseurgery,
• 44:24
  Speaker 1: start over with all the healing again. The good thing
• 44:26
  Speaker 1: is is the bone pain. I didn't have to heal
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: from the bone pain, so the prosthetics got to stay
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: in place. But they did take out the ball and
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: they did take out the plastics. So if, like if
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: I had ever wore out the hip, that's what they
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: would do to replace it. And the rest of the
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: stuff stays put. So I already got in second new
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: hip ye in my right hip, and this time it's
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: been better. It's healed, there's no infection in it. It's
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: all healed up. And so now I'm just trying to
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: get it strong enough to where I can stand on
• 45:02
  Speaker 1: one leg and stuff like that. Once that happens, my
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: gate changes as I walk, which I've just gotten to
• 45:08
  Speaker 1: that point. Yeah. Now, So now my massage therapist is
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: coming back over and she's starting to dig out all
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: the scar tissue and all the tissue that's just like solid,
• 45:23
  Speaker 1: it's not moving anymore. And work on that and get
• 45:25
  Speaker 1: that yeah out, which is not fun. Good physical therapy
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: and doing it right and going through these things. It's
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: not easy. It's not fun because it does not feel good.
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: It definitely tests your your resolve. But going through the
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: pain and dealing with it will get you back to
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: full range emotion and back to healthy and back to
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: everything so much faster than you know. Seeing people going
• 45:58
  Speaker 1: there and going don't do this, don't do that, it's like, look,
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: you gotta trust them and know they're not going to
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: hurt you, and you know, go through it. It's you
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: just got to embrace the suck, yeah, and get it done.
• 46:12
  Speaker 1: And that's what I've been doing. And it's getting better.
• 46:17
  Speaker 1: It gets a little better every day. And that's all
• 46:19
  Speaker 1: everyone want. That's all I got to say about that, Jenny.
• 46:26
  Speaker 3: So all right, brother, take us on.
• 46:29
