  Happy St. Patrick's Day. Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone.
• 0:04
  I hope you wore green. As you can see, I didn't, so I might get pinched. I don't know.
• 0:09
  We'll find out. We'll find out if anyone has the cojones to pinch this, mate.
• 0:14
  We'll find out. But I got some green around me. You can see,
• 0:17
  as you can see, I got some green around me. But, you know, when I'm out in the
• 0:20
  real world, we'll find out.
• 0:22
  All right, so today I got back in the gym. I don't know about you all.
• 0:28
  If you all have thought about testing that line of getting back in the gym today,
• 0:32
  it was, it was, it's been probably a year since I got the, the fortitude,
• 0:39
  you know, the mental, whatever it is to go back in there, you know,
• 0:43
  and I got back in there and I hope you all as well.
• 0:46
  We'll do that. I think a big thing of getting back in the gym is basically just
• 0:50
  the discipline, the mental discipline of getting back in the gym,
• 0:54
  which is, this is extremely tough.
• 0:57
  You know, if you can just get past that hurdle, you got to get like,
• 0:59
  just decide I'm going to do it.
• 1:01
  I'm going to do it. And I, and I had to decide, I decided I was going to do
• 1:05
  it. And then I was like, all right, I'm going all in. I'm going to buy all these supplements.
• 1:08
  And I was just searching on Amazon, getting all these supplements together,
• 1:12
  you know, getting something for my mind, you know, there's a thing that I got
• 1:16
  out there to call alpha brain. I don't know if you've heard that.
• 1:18
  I got that. I got some, some creatine. I think I, it's like,
• 1:22
  I just got almost get, I either, for me, I have to be either all in or not at all.
• 1:28
  And, and that hurts me as well, because I don't know if you're a person that
• 1:33
  likes to get in the gym and you want to go all out.
• 1:37
  You're either all out or it's not worth it. And that's the mindset I've always had.
• 1:41
  And today I really, I took some words of wisdom from my brother and I took it easy.
• 1:46
  I eased back into it because I don't want this to be just a short-term thing.
• 1:51
  I want it to be something that is going to...
• 1:54
  Keep going, keep going. I don't just get burnout, you know, but I mean,
• 1:58
  and are you a person that can do, can get up and go to the gym?
• 2:03
  Or are you a person that is a, like the after work or, you know,
• 2:07
  your lunch break during the day? What type of person are you?
• 2:10
  I've always been the type of person I need to go and do it early.
• 2:14
  Otherwise I don't have the motivation at the end of the day.
• 2:18
  And I mean, I found out, so I'm walking into the gym today and I get in there
• 2:23
  and I just get all these eyes on me.
• 2:27
  Everyone, I feel like I just get paranoid.
• 2:30
  Like, I think everyone's looking at me like they're like thinking, why are you here?
• 2:35
  You haven't been here. Why are you starting to come? And you just feel all these
• 2:39
  eyes on you. And I think it's just in my head.
• 2:41
  But does anyone else get that? Like in the gym, you're just like,
• 2:44
  you feel like everyone's watching you.
• 2:47
  And they're just, they're measuring you. Like, are you, you really think you
• 2:51
  can cut it, man? You really think you can cut it?
• 2:54
  And, and I mean, it's, it's so easy to get defeated because it,
• 2:58
  like I say, most of working out and trying to get like in a,
• 3:03
  back into a regiment, like having to, it just takes discipline.
• 3:06
  It's just mental discipline.
• 3:07
  And I, but man, you, you feel it, you feel it.
• 3:10
  And I, I think, I, I think I built these things up in my head.
• 3:13
  Do you all feel that at all? you all feel like when you get in the gym,
• 3:16
  you, everybody is like watching you, watching you.
• 3:19
  And plus I'm a guy, I'm not wearing headphones a lot. I mean,
• 3:22
  I want to wear headphones, but my headphones aren't that great. So I.
• 3:25
  I'm not wearing them. And then you just feel like you're raw dogging it.
• 3:28
  You're raw dogging it. Everybody's like, man, put some headphones on,
• 3:30
  man. You a psychopath? Are you a psychopath?
• 3:32
  And you feel like a psychopath if you're not wearing headphones in the gym in 2025, in 2025.
• 3:37
  But I'm, I'm that guy. I, and, and it really, the reason I do that as well is
• 3:42
  I want to almost prepare for the day and start like actually thinking about
• 3:46
  if I just have music going into my head, I won't be able to think straight.
• 3:50
  Maybe if I could throw a podcast or some news on, I feel like I would be getting
• 3:55
  something out of it, but, but then you lose that, that, that just gusto,
• 3:59
  you know, that, that like that,
• 4:01
  cause rock music or whatever type of music you have is like,
• 4:05
  it gets you pumped up and going, you know?
• 4:07
  And I feel like I lose, lose out on that a little bit, but I had to talk about
• 4:12
  this because, you know, it's, it means a lot to me and I don't know if it means
• 4:17
  a lot to you, but I'm going to try, I'm going to try to encourage you all.
• 4:21
  If you're not doing it, you know, I know it doesn't necessarily be going to
• 4:24
  the gym, but maybe just being active.
• 4:26
  I think it is really, it's just, you got to carve out some time of your day. It starts there.
• 4:32
  You got to carve out and decide on what time of day I'm going to do it.
• 4:36
  You know, whatever it is, whether it's going just for a walk,
• 4:39
  a run, playing basketball, just being active, because I think it helps.
• 4:45
  It helps a lot also with your mental clarity, with your mental,
• 4:49
  like just ability, just you feel like you have accomplished something.
• 4:53
  That's also a reason why I like to do it early in the morning.
• 4:57
  I don't know about everyone else. Everyone else has their own way,
• 5:00
  way they feel about doing it.
• 5:01
  And like, if you're a morning person, I feel like you can be an introvert and
• 5:05
  be a morning person because it's like the after work guys or girls that are
• 5:10
  in there. They're the social butterflies.
• 5:12
  They they're in there and they're in there to talk people that are in there
• 5:15
  in the morning. They're ready to get down to business.
• 5:17
  They don't have time to talk. They're just, we're, we're getting in here.
• 5:21
  We're focused. We're doing it.
• 5:22
  It could be almost more of a social thing after work. So that,
• 5:24
  I mean, that can be a good thing as well, but it's different for everyone.
• 5:28
  It's different for everyone.
• 5:29
  I wanted to start it off on that just so we have, cause I want to implement
• 5:32
  this into this whole, this whole show or talk show is just like, is basically,
• 5:38
  this is not just about one part of your life, but your health and wellbeing
• 5:43
  is a huge part of your life.
• 5:45
  So, I mean, doing something and I think just whatever it is,
• 5:48
  if you want to carve out 15 minutes, 30 minutes in your day to do something.
• 5:53
  I think it's, it's well worth it in the end. Just going on a walk is huge.
• 5:58
  Just going on a walk. I mean, having your feet touch the ground,
• 6:01
  you know, get like back in line with, I mean, God made us.
• 6:05
  So like we have this, this world that we're a part of, you know,
• 6:08
  I think we are, we are disconnected from reality in a lot of ways because we're
• 6:14
  disconnected from the ground.
• 6:15
  I don't know if you've ever heard of grounding. That's where you actually take
• 6:17
  off your shoes and socks, which can kind of be weird a little bit for a guy.
• 6:22
  But I mean, I mean, if you're thinking about we were cavemen once,
• 6:25
  you know, people weren't wearing shoes back then, you know, and I think sometimes
• 6:29
  there's that element of as well, you know, just actually touch the dirt, touch the dirt.
• 6:34
  You know, I really don't do that that often, but my wife has encouraged me to do that.
• 6:38
  My wife has encouraged me to do that, you know, but what do you all think about that?
• 6:42
  What do you all think? All right, so we're going to switch gears a little bit,
• 6:46
  and we're going to switch gears to, because I was really just going to talk about today just that.
• 6:52
  But a bombshell just got unleashed, which I don't know how, like,
• 6:57
  this seems kind of crazy.
• 6:59
  All right, the word of the day is Donald Trump last night, you know,
• 7:03
  he is tweeting at night, you know?
• 7:05
  This is a guy, he doesn't drink. He doesn't drink, but he is still,
• 7:08
  like, locked in at all times, and he's up late.
• 7:12
  You know, you think you're, if you're up late at night, you're kind of,
• 7:14
  you're, you're throwing back a few, but he's not, if he's throwing back a few,
• 7:17
  he's throwing back diet Cokes, but he is, he, what he said last night when he
• 7:23
  tweeted, and I just saw it this morning.
• 7:24
  I only saw it because Tim Poole retweeted it and said, oh, and I,
• 7:31
  you know, the, you know, that word he said in it, like.
• 7:35
  So I'm going to read it to you, what Donald Trump, what he said last night, and we can get into it.
• 7:40
  It has to do with undoing pardons that he does not deem legitimate,
• 7:46
  that he does not deem legitimate.
• 7:48
  Donald Trump, he says on Truth Social last night, the pardons that Sleepy Joe
• 7:53
  Biden gave to the unselect committee of political thugs and many others are hereby declared void.
• 8:01
  Vacant, and of no further force or effect.
• 8:05
  Because of the fact that they were done by auto pen.
• 8:09
  In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them, but more importantly,
• 8:14
  he did not know anything about them.
• 8:16
  The necessary pardoning documents were not explained to or approved by Biden.
• 8:22
  He knew nothing about them and the people that did may have committed a crime.
• 8:27
  Therefore, those on the unselect committee who destroyed and deleted all evidence
• 8:34
  obtained during their two-year witch hunt of me and many other innocent people
• 8:39
  should fully understand that they are subject to investigation at the highest level.
• 8:44
  The fact is they were probably responsible for the documents that were signed
• 8:49
  on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the worst president in the
• 8:54
  history of our country, crooked Joe Biden.
• 8:58
  All right. So I, I see this is, this could be huge. I know everybody's going to go crazy.
• 9:03
  I mean, I don't think Donald Trump could go to McDonald's and everybody not go crazy.
• 9:09
  But this is this is going to drive some people up the wall.
• 9:13
  And I think some but I think a lot of people that are rational that are rational.
• 9:17
  Don't don't jump to conclusions, whether you're a Trump supporter, whether you're not.
• 9:21
  And let's just what are you talking about, Donald Trump? What are you talking about?
• 9:26
  President Trump, President Trump, what are you talking about?
• 9:28
  Like he is saying that he's going to undo the pardons that were given by Biden
• 9:33
  or his administration in the final days.
• 9:37
  And specifically, and he says the unselect committee of political thugs.
• 9:44
  So what does that mean? And who is he talking about? Who is he going to be going after?
• 9:48
  If he keeps it legal, if he keeps it legal and he does not go above the law,
• 9:53
  which I do not think he will, if he keeps it legal, I think this can be legit.
• 9:58
  I think if we don't jump into and just come to a conclusion before we know all
• 10:02
  the evidence of what he has in mind, what he has in mind, because he tweets
• 10:06
  that tweets this, and then he tweets a bunch of other things the rest of the night, you know?
• 10:11
  So like, it kind of just got buried underneath some other, other things,
• 10:14
  but like, this really stands out.
• 10:17
  Like, what does this mean? What is this going to mean for.
• 10:20
  His political enemies, is he, is he going to actually drain the swamp?
• 10:26
  Because a regular politician, even Trump in his first, in his first term,
• 10:31
  when he got in there, he did not go after his political enemies.
• 10:35
  He did not continue. He didn't, he said all his crowds were always saying lock
• 10:39
  her up about Hillary Clinton.
• 10:41
  And he gets in there and he doesn't, he doesn't pursue that.
• 10:45
  He lets it go, which was that a good idea?
• 10:48
  Was that a good idea? Like if they're going to and we saw that after he got
• 10:53
  out, like they went after him like nonstop, you know, and I would say I would
• 10:58
  say illegally in a lot of ways and ways that did not make sense.
• 11:02
  But they opened Pandora's box that the left and the Democrats opened Pandora's box.
• 11:08
  And like, is this what we are going to see going forward? And they opened it
• 11:12
  in the worst possible situation of the next guy coming in,
• 11:16
  Donald Trump, which he might actually react because a lot of times Donald Trump,
• 11:20
  he's not starting fights, but he a lot of times reacts.
• 11:24
  If someone punches up at him, then he punches back.
• 11:28
  So they might have done a bad thing by what they did.
• 11:32
  And, you know, lighten a something under a something.
• 11:36
  All right. Yeah. So they, I, where this goes, I don't know, but like it could
• 11:41
  turn into something great.
• 11:43
  I think it could turn into something great. He's going to legitimately do what
• 11:47
  he did and not just let people off scot-free because he was,
• 11:52
  he was basically analyzed and watched from all angles for years.
• 11:57
  I mean, there's been no person that's been more investigated than Donald Trump
• 12:01
  and he stood the fire. He's, he's president. He's president.
• 12:05
  And if it's like, if you're going to do it to me, he's going to do it to you.
• 12:09
  And it's like truth will come out. Truth always wins.
• 12:13
  Good always wins. Light always defeats darkness.
• 12:17
  Whatever is right, whatever is good, it will eventually win in the end.
• 12:22
  So now if he, if he keeps a good measured head and doesn't do something crazy,
• 12:27
  but I don't think he, I don't think Trump is crazy. I don't think he is crazy.
• 12:31
  I think he's very smart. He's very 4D chess. He's always looking.
• 12:36
  He says things to start things so that he can jump in later on down the road,
• 12:41
  which he knows is going to happen.
• 12:42
  So what is actually going to happen with him basically light,
• 12:46
  just throwing this grenade out there?
• 12:48
  Cause this is a grenade. This is a grenade, and I don't know who's going to jump on it.
• 12:53
  Who's going to jump on it? Because you know everybody is going to scatter.
• 12:56
  Everybody's going to scatter.
• 12:58
  But we'll find out. We will find out what happens.
• 13:02
  All right, so I did want to quickly say we did actually, in our podcast studios,
• 13:08
  we've recently released a school community.
• 13:13
  And if you're a subscriber, if you're a subscriber, you can actually,
• 13:16
  you'll see the link and everything of our school community.
• 13:19
  Which we have out there, which it's for basically anyone that's content creator,
• 13:24
  podcaster out there that is interested in doing these types of things and collabing
• 13:29
  with other people that are of like mind that love this type of stuff,
• 13:32
  love creating stuff on the internet, love creating stuff for other people because
• 13:36
  it's much better to give than to receive.
• 13:39
  I've switched where I don't want to be just a consumer of content,
• 13:43
  but I desire to create content.
• 13:47
  I took that leap forward, but now I'm also in the position where I want to create
• 13:51
  good stuff, great stuff.
• 13:54
  I want to create stuff that is very valuable for others and beneficial to others.
• 13:58
  You know, it's all about finding your niche, but it's also about finding your tribe, you know?
• 14:02
  So if you, if you're interested in that, you can subscribe, you know,
• 14:06
  you can see the link, what we have of our school community. It's for podcast studios.
• 14:11
  So we'll, I'll talk more about that later, but I just wanted to throw that out there.
• 14:14
  And I wanted to end it with this keep going and keep evolving to the best version of you.
