- 1:15Hey, guy, my bro. Yeah, good mother.
- 1:17Good, good, good. Good.
- 1:18Little bit of a latest start today, but yeah, it's all good.
- 1:21It's it's actually getting kind of hot.
- 1:23So grateful for that actually, because New Zealand's going
- 1:26through a cyclone, pretty much what we were going through this
- 1:28time last year. Yeah, yeah.
- 1:31Actually, that's it, Yeah. Any any words of advice for
- 1:33them? Strap down your roofs.
- 1:37What was that thing called? Our canopy.
- 1:39Our. Canopies, bro.
- 1:40Yeah. Oh, that's right.
- 1:43Have you got any loose roofing or like a canopy like we had?
- 1:46Strap that down because that flew out of like 10 at 10:00 PM
- 1:50at night and we were in our undies, freezing cold in the
- 1:53rain trying to hold it for and then we ended up just leaving
- 1:56today. Yeah, we that.
- 1:57Yeah, that's all we could because we were scared.
- 1:58Yeah. I remember we spoke about this
- 2:01as well when it happened and kind of just thinking bro, I
- 2:05hope you can sort. It out.
- 2:06Yeah, we're looking like, come on, bro.
- 2:10Come on, bro. But we have to leave that so.
- 2:14But hey, it's all fixed now. So if you do have anything
- 2:17that's able to fly around, trampolines, whatever, keep it
- 2:19down, strap it down. Strap that down because it will
- 2:22fly away. Yeah, definitely will.
- 2:24Yeah, but now hopefully all the people back home and I'll sit
- 2:27all you're safe. Hopefully you guys get through
- 2:29it all good and unscathed and. Yeah, yeah, I think at the
- 2:32moment I saw it was a category 4.
- 2:34I'm pretty sure ours was about a category 4.
- 2:36But then by the time it got into shore, it was like category 2 or
- 2:391A and it was still pretty bad. Yeah, it was.
- 2:41I do remember like. It like dropped down a bit a
- 2:44well. From memory, yeah.
- 2:45I just. I just remember people still
- 2:48doing things though during it. Like I still went to the gym.
- 2:51Yeah, yeah, but I wasn't complaining.
- 2:52I had three days off work. Yeah, yeah, same.
- 2:54You know, I mean working from home.
- 2:56But yeah, so. Grateful.
- 2:59Yeah. I don't know.
- 3:00Anyway, do you know what that bro?
- 3:01What are you up to? Yeah, Nah, nothing much.
- 3:03The basketball has just gone through a pretty cool little
- 3:06period. We had the NCAA basketball
- 3:09championship finish up with Michigan winning.
- 3:13There was actually just a cool story I actually wanted to
- 3:15share. I sent it to one of my Bros and
- 3:17it was about this guy Yaxel Lindenberg.
- 3:21Sounds German as but he's he's American, I'm pretty sure, but
- 3:27I'm actually not too sure it could be half German, half black
- 3:29maybe. But anyway, listen to this this
- 3:32guy Frank Michael. He does a real good breakdowns
- 3:34on Instagram If you got enough to check him out, but.
- 3:36Axel Linda Borg is living proof that success at the highest
- 3:39level has so much more to do with effort than talent.
- 3:42Now, that's not supposed to be a knock.
- 3:43Yaxel comes from a basketball family, and he's extremely
- 3:46talented. Both his parents played for the
- 3:47Dominican national team, but Yaxel wasn't formed with the
- 3:50same drive to pursue his gifts. Despite his family pushing
- 3:52towards the game, he hardly practiced or cared much about
- 3:54playing for his school. He was cut from his middle
- 3:56school team three years in a row before finally making his high
- 3:59school freshman squad. It hardly lasted though.
- 4:01He cared so little about anything aside from video games
- 4:03that he was cut mid season for poor grades.
- 4:05Yaxel told Alec Squadron at Hoops HQ he was playing 12 plus
- 4:08hours of video games per day after graduation.
- 4:11He said I wasn't trying to play any sports, I was working a job
- 4:13at a warehouse. Finally, his mother got through
- 4:16to him and convinced him to try out for a JUCO team.
- 4:18He was nervous, having never been on a plane or away from his
- 4:20mom, but once he got on campus, something clicked.
- 4:22For the first time in his life, Yaxel was believing them himself
- 4:25and giving real effort. The results came quickly.
- 4:27He became a JUCO All American and the program's all time
- 4:30leading rebounder. After three seasons there, he
- 4:32transferred to play for UAB where he got his degree, became
- 4:34the conference Defensive Player of the Year and the number one
- 4:36ranked transfer in the nation. All the blue bloods came
- 4:39calling, but Yaxel chose Ann Arbor for his final year of
- 4:41eligibility. Safe to say it worked out as he
- 4:43became a first team All American and National champion.
- 4:45When asked about his journey, Yaxel said.
- 4:47I feel like I'm doing it for the people who don't believe in
- 4:49themselves. I want to give a lot of those
- 4:50people. Don't doubt.
- 4:51So yeah, pretty much that's that's the actual young dude.
- 4:56Pretty cool story. And there's actually another
- 4:58dude in their team as well. He's called Elliot Kadar.
- 5:02And he was like one of the top. So this is for the Michigan
- 5:05college basketball team that won the national championship.
- 5:09This other guy in in the same team, Elliot Kadar, he was a
- 5:14highly touted high school player, number one in the
- 5:16nation, I'm pretty sure went to North Carolina, one of the
- 5:19biggest schools. And then he averaged like 9
- 5:22points a game for two seasons there.
- 5:25And so that he kind of got he, he left because, yeah, he wasn't
- 5:29doing well. He went to Michigan.
- 5:31And then along with him, this, this guy, I forgot what that
- 5:36dude's name was just then. Yucks and Youngburg, they they
- 5:40turned Michigan around, who's a football college and they went
- 5:43number one in the country and then went out to actually
- 5:46dominate the national championship game.
- 5:48But it's actually, I've I wanted to bring it up just because of
- 5:51that 12 hours a day on gaming. Bro that's half a day gone.
- 5:56Bro that's crazy. Hey I've done some 12 hour days
- 5:59for sure. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie.
- 6:01Yeah, I've done. I think.
- 6:01I think we all have. I've done some 12 hour days on
- 6:04on on like Fortnite or right? Call of Duty.
- 6:08Yeah, 2K. Yeah, 2K Madden.
- 6:10Like, yeah, I've done some. I've done some miles.
- 6:12I've clocked some miles, I've clocked some days.
- 6:13Bro, maybe he got some like real life like experience playing 2K
- 6:18though, like, you know, he was doing the LeBron, yeah, LeBron
- 6:21moves. You're showing the yeah, yeah,
- 6:23he might have been getting some practice in, but this dude as
- 6:27well, he was like, he's a 69 freak athlete.
- 6:30So, yeah, it's if you I guarantee if you're trying to do
- 6:34that at home, you won't be able to because I guarantee you're
- 6:36not 69 and like jumping with your head above the room.
- 6:39So but that just brings me to that's a cool story, I guess for
- 6:42the the college basketball. The what I just want to touch on
- 6:46quickly is some of the top prospects because this NBA
- 6:51upcoming NBA draft is touted as one of the best, one of the best
- 6:55ever. It's like being kind of rated up
- 6:59there with like LeBron and D Wade's class.
- 7:02And yeah, it's, it's, it's it's like Cooper Flag, who was
- 7:07supposed to be he, you know, Cooper Flag, he's probably going
- 7:11to win rookie in NBA this year. He was supposed to be in this
- 7:14year's class, but he moved up a year.
- 7:17But they reckon if he stayed down, he wouldn't even be the
- 7:20top three pick. That's how good this year's
- 7:22class is. So the number one is A-69
- 7:26freshman out of BYO. This suppose this is the mock
- 7:30draft. So they might, might change up.
- 7:32AJ Debanson, He's like a 69, 19 year old from BYUI.
- 7:38Think he got like a $4 million in IL to go to BYU.
- 7:42He's like crazy good. So he's averaged 9025.5 points
- 7:49per game. That's good.
- 7:50That's like what Katie averaged when he was in Texas.
- 7:54He kind of plays a bit like he can do a bit of everything.
- 7:58He's like a tall, slender, athletic guy.
- 8:00So I'd say he's probably a bit like maybe, yeah, maybe a bit
- 8:05like Katie Ish or Blackpool George, like kind of like that
- 8:08can do about everything, shooting everything.
- 8:09See, I need those comparisons because, see, I, I don't know, I
- 8:12don't know anything about these guys.
- 8:13So by you saying that, yeah, I know exactly, you know, the the
- 8:16body frame, the soul, the movement, you know.
- 8:18Yeah. And then the next one is Darren
- 8:20Peterson. He's a sick.
- 8:21I'll just go through a few, a few of the top ones.
- 8:23Darren Peterson, Kansas, he's a 66 point guard and he plays.
- 8:28He is a bit younger, 19, he maybe might go #1 he might be
- 8:33actually the most talented, but AJ might have the most potential
- 8:37kind of thing. That's how they're looking at it
- 8:38because this dude can do everything like he whenever he
- 8:40played, he was getting 20 points easily.
- 8:44The only thing that with this guy is he was only playing like
- 8:4720 minutes a game and getting pulled off because he keeps
- 8:49having injuries. He kept apparently kept having
- 8:51muscle cramps, but everyone's like, I don't know, it seems a
- 8:54bit dodge like. Is there something more you're
- 8:55not telling us, bro? How do you get muscle cramps in
- 8:58basketball? Yeah, I don't really get that.
- 9:00And how many games are they playing, by the way?
- 9:02I think they pay. They play less than NBA.
- 9:05NBA is 8480. Yeah, just regular.
- 9:07I think they would play about 30.
- 9:10Yeah, but you can't. Tell me you're getting muscle
- 9:12cramps off 30 games. Yeah, I know.
- 9:14Yeah. So he averaged 20 points, 4
- 9:17rebounds and 1.6 assists. So he really wasn't 24 games.
- 9:20Sorry, he really wasn't passing, but he's touted to be the
- 9:24actually ready to go best right now.
- 9:27Yeah, then Cam Boozer. He's son of Boozer played for
- 9:33the Chicago Bulls. He was really good 22.
- 9:35He went to Duke. He's kind of just like a solid
- 9:37big frame guy who he got the AP player of the year, which is
- 9:40pretty mean for a freshman. But bro, my favorite I want to
- 9:44show you is Colin Carr. He's a junior, I'm pretty sure
- 9:47out of Michigan State and bro, the meanest dunk I think I've
- 9:51ever seen. Oh, what bro, I'll show you some
- 9:53of his dunks right now. They're actually like like the
- 9:57way he you know how like some people they're really athletic,
- 10:00but they can't steeze their dunks out.
- 10:03But I think it's the way he can like hold the ball in one hand
- 10:05and just like levitate and just break his hand on the room.
- 10:09How hard he throws it like bro, look at how hard he he dunks
- 10:13some of these. It's crazy.
- 10:15Oh, hold on, I'll give you some sound as well.
- 10:17So, people. Yeah.
- 10:20Here we go either did the crowd and the crowd stayed into it
- 10:23even though it's a 30 point game.
- 10:25Oh my goodness, he's my he isn't very highly touted because he's
- 10:33kind of old and I think he has other areas of game he's not
- 10:36good, but but in terms of like just pure dunks, the.
- 10:40Front. Dunks.
- 10:41Oh, like levitating floating through the air and just
- 10:47slamming it bro and. Then Cohen car.
- 10:50Like. The explosive freshman.
- 10:54It's freshman. This is this is.
- 10:58Oh, I'm skipping forward a bit because I want to show you a lot
- 11:03of them and. Michigan State getting down for
- 11:06Miss. Carr wait he's a mean 1 going
- 11:08car. Gets it back every single time.
- 11:10Bro, he's just dunking me that one when he's just like fully
- 11:17bang. Look how far back he like cocks
- 11:22the back end. So that dude's my favorite.
- 11:27I don't even know he might he might be staying in the draft
- 11:29again in the in college again this year.
- 11:31But oh, this is going to be crazy.
- 11:35But like that little like that bend makes it look so cool, I
- 11:39reckon. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 11:40I was like just on someone's head, but yeah.
- 11:46That is crazy. Yeah, yeah.
- 11:48So that that comes to my thing, 'cause he's a 1 foot dunker.
- 11:51Yeah. Do you?
- 11:52And then you have like D Rose who's a 2 foot dunker and you
- 11:55have LeBron, he's like a 1 foot dunker as well.
- 11:58Who did you rather prefer like the D Rose Double Double Hand
- 12:02Club cock back or do you prefer something like that one off 1?
- 12:06It's always been the one hand. Off Off 1.
- 12:08Yeah, the one handed bro LeBron does it the best.
- 12:10Tomahawk say we need LeBron does it and then yeah.
- 12:13Like, I don't see, honestly, I find it so crazy if someone can
- 12:18stop a dunk. Yeah, if you stop a dunk, bro,
- 12:21you're like, block it. Yeah, you're instantly on my
- 12:23like, goaded. List.
- 12:24Yeah, yeah. Because it's it's and it's, it's
- 12:27scary, bro. Yeah.
- 12:28It just looks scary to defend. Yeah.
- 12:30So yeah, I mean, one handed for me.
- 12:33What about you? Oh.
- 12:36It's just the I like them both, but yeah, I'm on one hand Tom
- 12:40Walker as well. Like it's the best dunk you can
- 12:42do by far. Yeah.
- 12:44So yeah, Anyway, that's that's the NCAA wrap up the NBA draft
- 12:49is any anything you want to go jump into the playoffs.
- 12:51Yeah, now as well. So pretty much we have all of
- 12:57the pretty much all everything wrapped up now.
- 13:01There's the play in tournament obviously now, and that's gonna
- 13:03be between Golden State, Portland, Trail Blazers,
- 13:06Clippers and the Suns and the West.
- 13:09And then the play in's gonna be Heat and Hornets and Orlando.
- 13:1376ers first seeds, Detroit first seeds.
- 13:16OK, CI guess do you have any teams that you particularly
- 13:19like? You like Lakers?
- 13:20There, I'm a Lakers fan. OK.
- 13:21So we'll just look at them. They got Rockets first Yeah,
- 13:23they'll be LeBron versus KD. So I don't know if you've seen
- 13:28everything happening with the Lakers at the moment.
- 13:30I actually might actually want Lakers to win the CRA real
- 13:34because Bronies been playing with his dad right and right and
- 13:38Austin Reeves and Luca just got injured.
- 13:41So they're gonna be maybe playing a lot, and how mean
- 13:45would it be if it was like dad, dad and son?
- 13:48Like son, do it, win the championship or at least make a
- 13:50run. That's never happened before
- 13:52either. No, no, wait, no one's ever
- 13:53happened before. No kids have you ever?
- 13:55That is insane. So, but imagine that like fourth
- 13:58quarter or something bronies like dad come see the screen for
- 14:01me fired at least so firey. He's got him.
- 14:04I I've noticed he's got him on your.
- 14:06You're starting to like him a bit more too.
- 14:08Who? LeBron.
- 14:08No. Bronnie I like.
- 14:10No, I've always liked Bronnie. I don't like LeBron.
- 14:13Oh, I love Bronie. I thought you didn't write
- 14:14Bronie in there. No, I like him.
- 14:16Cool. Yeah, I reckon he's athletic and
- 14:18he's. And everyone judges him way too
- 14:20hard. I've always liked Bronie.
- 14:21LeBron, to me, he's just corny, like.
- 14:23Right. Yeah, yeah.
- 14:24Yeah, but he, but then now I'm just like looking at him.
- 14:27Bro, you you're still playing. You're 41 and you're mean.
- 14:30Oh I'm he's coming around. It took him to be the greatest
- 14:33points player most games ever, 4 championships, 4 MVP, 41 yeah
- 14:38and 41 for them to start coming around.
- 14:40But like, yeah, he's, he's coming around for.
- 14:42Me. Yeah.
- 14:42Harsh. Critic, right?
- 14:43Yeah, Harsh. Critic Yeah, so I actually want
- 14:45Lakers one as well. So that might be my team.
- 14:46I might check some money on them actually.
- 14:48Damn. Yeah, OK.
- 14:49Well, what's the chances of them winning, you reckon?
- 14:51No, not very big. They'll they'll, they'll be like
- 14:54$10 return probably. So if you put 10 bucks, you'll
- 14:56get 100 bucks. Back.
- 14:57OK, Yeah, OK. Who's the favorite?
- 14:59Favorites at the moment would be OKC.
- 15:01Yeah, bro, Shay. I hate Shay, but yeah, he's to
- 15:05me. He's corny as well, but he
- 15:07always pushes off, right? So he'll drive and have his
- 15:11elbow and his and his other arm and then boom and and create
- 15:16separation that way, right? I just reckon that's cheating
- 15:18bro because he actually like puts a forearm like to.
- 15:22Someone yeah, yeah, bro, you're pushing off yeah.
- 15:25So anyway, yeah. Well, if he ain't getting caught
- 15:28for it. Yeah, true.
- 15:29He's using the rules for himself as just like, yeah, I don't
- 15:32know. And he's just like he's a bit
- 15:33like he's performative as you know, like he'll rock up to the
- 15:37cans. He's like, how do how does I'll
- 15:40try to do a Canadian accent And he's like, no, I'm saying like
- 15:44we go, we go on, we go on in the I bring my conversors to the
- 15:47game, eh, like you know how we say.
- 15:52You sound Irish. It's the most.
- 15:57Irish. Canadian, Canadian accent, It's
- 15:59just an American accent. But they no, it's a bit
- 16:01different. It's a bit different.
- 16:03But I reckon it it's pretty much honestly, it probably offends
- 16:07Canadians, but it's very close to unless you obviously from the
- 16:10French areas. Go try it, try it, try it.
- 16:13I'll just say like, hey man, I'll just pick up a basketball
- 16:16and. No, that's a very good, but it's
- 16:19the a we say a like a we we'll get a bear, right.
- 16:23Like, oh, it's like go go get a bear.
- 16:25Go go get a bear with a so they're the boys cousins like
- 16:28this, like this. What should I show you?
- 16:29They're our. Cousins then.
- 16:30Pro do we say or do we? Say a all the time true.
- 16:34This is funny. So the most I spent was was in
- 16:37Canada. So this is this is it's got a
- 16:39little Canadian twang to it. I'm probably going to offend
- 16:43somebody, but this is this is my best this is my best
- 16:46impersonation. I gave this in my farewell or my
- 16:48my homecoming talk, and the only person that laughed was my dad.
- 16:52So you think this is funny? So anyways, I'm how about we
- 17:00talk about the Lordy I the other day it was I was walking through
- 17:06the alley and I I saw Raven, I said.
- 17:11First of all, how does this have 426,000 views?
- 17:15Why are we letting this person get famous?
- 17:17That was not just added to. That, that was the worst video
- 17:20I've ever seen in my life. That pissed me off, bro, That
- 17:22that's an American accent that just.
- 17:24It's so close. But did you get the A?
- 17:26Yeah, I did. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 17:28Gotta get the best for the boys, eh?
- 17:30Eh. What are you thinking, eh?
- 17:33So they're actually are cousins from afar.
- 17:35Yeah, we say it all the time too.
- 17:37Well, we go. What do you reckon?
- 17:39A. Oh, nobody knows.
- 17:40How do we say A? We just say, we say like I
- 17:44write. I write that coffee a yeah, I
- 17:47write that coffee a hard. Anyway, over to my general
- 17:55update alarms. I put this out to the followers
- 17:59this week and alarms for me. Yep.
- 18:03It pissed me off bro, because my partner, OK, puts on literally I
- 18:09want to say in the morning she'll have 8:00 alarms.
- 18:13And I, I hate it. I hate it.
- 18:16So I put out a question to the followers this week, OK?
- 18:19And it was pretty much just be honest.
- 18:21Tell me what is your morning situation?
- 18:23What's your morning routine? I want to know how many alarms
- 18:26you use. OK, so I think some of our
- 18:28followers, a lot has by the way, because I guarantee you there
- 18:33are some people who have voted on this list and there is no way
- 18:36that you are a one or two discipline type alarm person.
- 18:39I know you got more alarms than that.
- 18:40Why? Did you go through the?
- 18:42Names I, I went through, I went through some of them.
- 18:44So on our polls I went, how many alarms do you set in the
- 18:47morning? And so by the way, my partner,
- 18:48right? So every day she has roughly 8
- 18:50alarms and it goes for a span of an hour.
- 18:53And I'm like, bro, shut your alarm off.
- 18:56But the same with my missus. So annoying.
- 18:59Bro it aggravates me bro. Like I'm getting heated thinking
- 19:01about it right now. Because what I don't understand
- 19:03is that they, because they're their reason.
- 19:05Or maybe I'll talk about mine after or should I go now?
- 19:07No, you can go. So because she does the same,
- 19:09bro. And I'm like, and she sits at
- 19:11every 1010 or 15 minutes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 19:15But an hour before she needs to get up.
- 19:18So like, bro, I'm, I'm saying, I'm saying to her like you don't
- 19:21understand. You could have slept an hour and
- 19:24then just woken up at the first one.
- 19:29I'm like logic. I'm like, okay, I know you're
- 19:32tired, but guess what? You could have got an hour more
- 19:35sleep. I'm like, but does it not
- 19:40aggravate what's happening? Yeah.
- 19:41Does it not aggravate? It pisses me off.
- 19:45It pisses me off because. It wakes me up.
- 19:47Yeah, exactly. And 20 times.
- 19:48That's why I get frustrated because I know I'm a deep
- 19:51sleeper too. But obviously when it comes to
- 19:53the morning, your body, you know, your circadian rhythm
- 19:55starts to change. And then all of a sudden, yeah,
- 19:57your body body clock starts to wake you up.
- 19:59So as soon as I hear alarms I'm like.
- 20:01Oh hell no. But do you know how I know my
- 20:04master's got problems? Because like she'll, this is how
- 20:07much he thinks into it. The first one will be a real
- 20:09soft 1, so we'll be like. Yeah, yeah.
- 20:11Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding. And I'm like, of course you're
- 20:14not going to wake up to that because no one can even.
- 20:16I've barely even heard that, but it woke me up because.
- 20:18And then the next one will be like A and then the last one is
- 20:25I was like, it's like, get up, what are we doing, bro?
- 20:34What are we doing? So I've just been really
- 20:36frustrated lately because obviously as you just to your
- 20:40point, you could have got an extra hour of sleep.
- 20:42Yeah, I could have got an extra hour of sleep.
- 20:45Everybody, bro, everybody, bro that goes through this.
- 20:48And I, I have a feeling my bro, it's, it's mostly woman.
- 20:52I'm gonna say it out loud. Mostly women do this.
- 20:54Okay, yeah, because men are very simple.
- 20:56All we need is one or two. Yeah, but I've never in my life
- 21:00set to alarms. Oh, never.
- 21:02No, I've I've set 2. I'll put my.
- 21:03Head on. Yeah, I've I've seen I'm pretty
- 21:05light sleeper, so like, yeah, as soon as I go, I'm not I don't
- 21:09even. Oh, famous last words.
- 21:10Maybe I'll sleep through an alarm once, but I've never slept
- 21:13through one alarm. Wow.
- 21:15Yeah, then. So you're pretty disciplined
- 21:16then bro? Oh, I think I'm just light
- 21:18sleeper like yeah. And then once I wake them away
- 21:20so. So my issue is that when these
- 21:23alarms go off, I obviously get my sleep is disrupted.
- 21:26So then I get in this, you know, mood and I'm like bro, turn the
- 21:29alarm off before I throw your. Phone oh bro and when and when
- 21:32they just keep letting it go. But that's the thing that pisses
- 21:35me. Off man.
- 21:36Oh, a little bit of it. You.
- 21:38Can tell they heard it, you can tell they heard it, but they
- 21:41just they just can't be bothered to to turn it off so.
- 21:43This is the thing. So to that point, my missus will
- 21:46let it go and then she'll growl at me like, and I'm like, what?
- 21:50And she's like, can you turn it off?
- 21:52Is it my phone or is it your phone, bro?
- 21:55Yeah. So this is the sorry, shut the
- 21:58hell up. So this is the issue I'm having
- 22:01at the moment, OK. And so honestly, it's going to
- 22:03get to a point where I pick up this phone, I just buff it out
- 22:05the window away. But I put it out to the
- 22:07followers, OK, The shed followers.
- 22:09And my question, the first one I put up in our polls was how many
- 22:12alarms do you set in the morning?
- 22:1479% of our followers said they only do 1 to 2% liars.
- 22:20Yeah, if they're girls, they I assume that they're lying.
- 22:23However, 21% OK, and these are honest people here, three to
- 22:27five people, 3:00 to 5:00 alarms, OK, Now the reason why
- 22:32I'm saying our followers here or some of them are liars.
- 22:36I reckon the real stat OK in this scenario would be maybe
- 22:39somewhere around the 50 to 60% mark.
- 22:42Yeah. I I, I, I have a feeling, bro,
- 22:46like I'm, I'm one of these people.
- 22:47Like if I'll I'll set a maximum of two alarms.
- 22:50I have a feeling, bro. There are some people that, that
- 22:52we know they set way more than than two alarms.
- 22:56Yeah, yeah, I just, I just get an urge.
- 22:59The next one was be real. Is it actually more than 5
- 23:01percent? 10% said yeah and 90% said no,
- 23:05I'm normal. Right.
- 23:07OK, OK. So some.
- 23:08So there's small minority that are doing 5 plus.
- 23:14So, so they say OK, yeah, alright, so here is my missus
- 23:18OK, explaining her her whole routine, morning routine and the
- 23:24alarms. OK, so.
- 23:25The first alarm is kind of earlier than I actually want to
- 23:28wake up. And it's so that, you know,
- 23:30there's a bit of music in my ears.
- 23:31There's that. There's a morning I don't know
- 23:34because there's something of my eyes.
- 23:36And then the next alarm is, OK, it's definitely time to wake up
- 23:40or it's definitely morning, but I can still sleep a little bit.
- 23:43So I'm kind of in that. Perfect.
- 23:44State I'm. Asleep, but I know I'm asleep
- 23:47and it feels so good. And the next few alarms is OK,
- 23:51warm up, warm up. How many alarms has it been
- 23:53since that second one? OK, maybe 3.
- 23:55All right. OK, so it's time to get up now,
- 23:58first of all. Pissing me off.
- 24:00Oh damn, so she just wants to know.
- 24:03It's the morning, that's all she wants to know.
- 24:06So it's the morning, it's. The morning Damn.
- 24:08She bro, she. Honestly, I just want to sleep.
- 24:11Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. I know.
- 24:13So other people responded. So the next thing we put up in
- 24:16our polls was explain your morning routine.
- 24:18OK, so one person, Izzy, Izzy, fourteen, 5:00 AM wake up call.
- 24:22Not from my alarm, from my kids, because the parent they, because
- 24:27the parent they said that's a real, that's a real thing.
- 24:30Eh, I stay with my niece and nephew like they wake up bro.
- 24:33Bro, one of my Bros here, This isn't out the gate one.
- 24:36You'll like this one, actually. Moses, Moses T Raven.
- 24:40One alarm because I'm excited to do my morning dump.
- 24:44Best part of the day. Honestly, bro, that's what wakes
- 24:47me up. Yeah, 'cause my body's saying
- 24:49Nah, bro. Come on.
- 24:49Yeah, Time the gate. Time the gate.
- 24:51You know what business you got to do.
- 24:52Body's saying yeah. Dean 2 alarms 5 minutes apart.
- 24:57See, that's kind of what I do. 5 minutes ago 5.
- 25:00Minutes apart. That's that's a real Elan.
- 25:02No alarms. Wake up time is between 5:30 AM
- 25:05and 6:00 AM regardless. Oh, so you just build different?
- 25:09Probably just build different. Yeah JT, Jordan, Tana.
- 25:12I set 4 alarms for every minute, but always wake up on the first
- 25:16one. Other every minute, every
- 25:18minute. So I set 4 alarms for every
- 25:20minute, but always wake up on the first.
- 25:22Other three are insurance. That's yeah, just to make sure.
- 25:29I just know then he's he's like, if the fact he's put them one
- 25:33minute apart, he's making it like I'm waking up at 6:54
- 25:38because I know it takes me 12 minutes to get to work.
- 25:40And if I'm any later, I'm done. So he's still optimizing.
- 25:44But that time it's like Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding.
- 25:46The fact that Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, he, he's really leaving at
- 25:50last minute. I reckon he knows exactly every
- 25:52his whole timing schedule to get.
- 25:54There. Yeah, yeah, True, true.
- 25:56And he's probably even said that in the morning so that he can
- 25:57maybe do like, a scroll in the morning, you know?
- 26:00Yeah. People like that.
- 26:01Yeah. Yeah.
- 26:02Amy, That's pretty good, actually.
- 26:05Amy put out. Husband sets it.
- 26:07I have no responsibility. Halo blessed.
- 26:12Damn, I wouldn't like that. Oh, it depends if you wake up at
- 26:15the same time. Yeah.
- 26:16Wait, so. So probably.
- 26:17What they do. Yeah.
- 26:18So husband sets it. I have no responsibility.
- 26:20Blessed. So it must mean either they wake
- 26:22up at the same time. Yeah.
- 26:23Or hubby's just that good of a guy.
- 26:25He just knows this is the time she needs to wake up so she can
- 26:27make it to work. Yeah.
- 26:29Next one Matt wafer body clock wakes up when I need to
- 26:32otherwise alarm is the backup and then just go.
- 26:35So similar to JT insurance? Hamu, OH.
- 26:40He's going to have a weird. One alarm goes off, smack the
- 26:43light switch on. We good to go baby Licker the
- 26:45ticker Ricker. He's supposed to be off of it
- 26:50and fit P change snooze from 7:50 minutes.
- 26:56Set alarm 20 minutes before wake up time.
- 26:58Snooze twice. Still 4 minutes early.
- 27:01Oh, that's too much bro. You got problems.
- 27:03Wait, say that again. So.
- 27:05Change is complicated. 8 Why did you need to change it to 8
- 27:07minutes? So he changes snooze from 7:50
- 27:10minutes. Why do you need to do that?
- 27:13He then sets the alarm 20 minutes before wake up time.
- 27:16Snooze twice. So 16 minutes, 16 minutes.
- 27:19It's still 4 minutes early. That's an interesting one, but
- 27:23that seems like a lot of work. Yeah, why?
- 27:26Why would you not just sit it a bit earlier?
- 27:31You know what I mean? Like, so he needs to wake up at
- 27:336, for example. So he would set his alarm at
- 27:385:40. So he gets 2.
- 27:42Two things with 60 minutes. So he'll be waking up at 5:54.
- 27:48But why would you not just go 444 and just do the 10 minutes?
- 27:54Oh, I don't know, maybe the 8 minutes of work, so I don't
- 27:57know. Yeah, I guess what works for
- 27:58you, Simon. Simon, put this out.
- 28:00If you set more than one alarm to get out of bed, you're
- 28:03immature and need to grow up. I'm ready to die for that take.
- 28:08Did he say 1? Did he say one alarm he.
- 28:10Must. Yeah, yeah.
- 28:11Yeah, he said. He did it if he did it more than
- 28:13one. Yeah, if he's set more than one,
- 28:15yeah. To get out of bed, yeah.
- 28:18I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm kind of on board with you something, to be
- 28:20honest. Yeah, Joe, Joey Duffy, Zero Wake
- 28:23up from the Sun. They just use the sun to wake
- 28:27up. Right when it wakes up, it's
- 28:285:00 AM and yeah. And Gold Coast.
- 28:31Yeah, true, true. Your mum, actually, Caroline,
- 28:33what did she say? One if I have to inbuilt alarm
- 28:37clock so must must. Body clock, Body clock.
- 28:39Yeah, yeah, yeah. And last one, I can't stand
- 28:42this. My partner Casey would do it.
- 28:45That's from Stathub, by the way. My partner Casey would do it.
- 28:48And I'm like, man, just sit one for when you want to get up,
- 28:52wake up and sleep the extra 20 minutes.
- 28:54So what were you saying exactly? See, guys are very logical.
- 28:57That's what I'm getting at with this, yeah.
- 29:01I agree but I agree man. Like just instead of trying to
- 29:05pre empt the wake up, just get that a little bit extra bit of
- 29:10sleep man, you know? Yeah, well, sleep is so
- 29:13important, honestly. Like we, we're obviously know
- 29:15that, right? Gone are the days where we
- 29:18thought we could just, you know, do an all nighter.
- 29:20It's very rare now that we can do that, you know, and I, I
- 29:22enjoy my sleep. But if you get me to the morning
- 29:25and you have 8 alarms like my missus, honestly, you've already
- 29:32started off on a bad foot in my eyes.
- 29:33That bad day. Yeah, you're honestly, I just,
- 29:37I, I, I find it almost disgusting you have that many
- 29:40alarms. So sort it out funny.
- 29:44Yeah, sort it out anyway. Yeah.
- 29:46Do you want to jump into the next one here?
- 29:48Yeah, Flat chat. We got flat chat.
- 29:49We talked about something a little bit.
- 29:53We're just going to dive into it a bit deeper now.
- 29:55So it's from a post we saw. I'll read it out and then we'll
- 29:59give our take on it. The posters from Frey.
- 30:02I actually think surface level friendships are very healthy.
- 30:05Not everyone in your life has to be your ride or die.
- 30:08Some friends are for gym, some for church.
- 30:11Some are for complaining about work or bureaucracy, like you
- 30:14don't know what bureaucracy means.
- 30:16But anyway, when you stop expecting everyone to be your
- 30:19everything, the disappointment disappears.
- 30:21The deep conversations are for two to three people closest to
- 30:24you. So I think that's pretty
- 30:25interesting because he touches on a yeah, the very start saying
- 30:30surface little friendships and lots of people get ecked out by
- 30:33there and be like, why would I put time into someone that's
- 30:36just surface level or they don't like putting on like a mask to
- 30:40you go out to coffee with people you don't really know and you're
- 30:43just how's work going? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 30:46What about the NRL? Who do you support?
- 30:48And it's just all surface level conversations.
- 30:50But he's actually saying that there's a time and place for
- 30:52that. And I actually kind of agree,
- 30:54Yeah. What do you reckon?
- 30:55Yeah, I agree. I agree with obviously that
- 30:58comment. I've had conversations recently
- 31:00with some people and I'm just like, I try and break the ice
- 31:03with people who who I don't know, OK, I've got one person in
- 31:06particular that that I'm thinking about when it comes to
- 31:08this. And I've I've tried to break the
- 31:10ice with them on a couple of occasions and I've just noticed
- 31:14either they're autistic or they really just are awkward and they
- 31:18don't know how to have a conversation.
- 31:20Maybe they don't want to talk to.
- 31:21You maybe, yeah, maybe they don't want to talk to me.
- 31:24Yeah. Like, which is all good.
- 31:25Like I don't mind that, but just say it then.
- 31:27Yeah, yeah. Yeah, like I won't get offended
- 31:29if if that's the case. But if you're standing there and
- 31:31you're standing there awkwardly, like come on, bro, you either
- 31:35got to say something or you just, you know, walk away.
- 31:37I think it's it's bad. I don't know.
- 31:41I don't reckon. I don't reckon that they should
- 31:43say something. I reckon everyone should be able
- 31:46to hold a surface level conversation, you know, like OK,
- 31:49maybe you don't want to be here right now, but let's just get
- 31:51through this 5 minutes and then on our way.
- 31:53It doesn't need to be a, you know, we don't need to be keep
- 31:56doing this forever, but just show me the courtesy in this
- 31:58moment and then we'll move on. But.
- 32:00The other thing too, is that when I'm having a conversation
- 32:02with this individual, like it's, I'm not asking standard type
- 32:08questions. You're trying to get into it.
- 32:10Yeah. Yeah.
- 32:11Like I'm, I'm actually trying to figure out what do they actually
- 32:14enjoy and, and why do they enjoy whatever they enjoy?
- 32:18You know, and that honestly, there's like, it's like the
- 32:20receptors are just not receipting, you know, like they
- 32:23don't, they can't process. Yeah.
- 32:25Why do you want to know that? Yeah, yeah, sometimes I, I've
- 32:28but what I've gauged right and, and it's, it's not a theme
- 32:31problem, it's probably not a me problem either.
- 32:33It's just that some people actually generally just don't
- 32:36know how to have a conversation with someone sometimes.
- 32:38Yeah, yeah. And they are awkward.
- 32:39Yeah. It's just, that's just, you
- 32:41know, not everyone's gonna be like me.
- 32:43And I've learnt that, yeah, I've learnt that.
- 32:45But, and I'm not honestly, I'm not someone to just go in and
- 32:48have a chat with someone randomly about any topic.
- 32:50Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like I, I won't try and break
- 32:53the ice with you if I, if I really don't know you too well,
- 32:56it takes me maybe 3 or 4 interactions with you to
- 32:58finally, you know, yeah, try and break the ice properly.
- 33:03Yeah. So if you if you go, I'm
- 33:05actually just thinking about this a bit more though.
- 33:07So say you went to the gym with someone every single day.
- 33:10Would you keep it just the gym though?
- 33:12Or would you you most likely going to be like, oh, do you
- 33:15want to catch up? We'll come do this or you
- 33:18probably would be like that. I think I probably would be like
- 33:21that to be honest. Yeah, Yep.
- 33:25But I guess, I guess it's to the.
- 33:27I don't really have anyone like that.
- 33:29It's. Hardware when you're older, A
- 33:30when you're a bit older now, it's harder to like meet someone
- 33:35new and say like, yeah, you're going to be my ride or die
- 33:38because most likely you already have really good friends that
- 33:40you have ride or dies already and it's like you don't have
- 33:44heaps of space in your life to have heaps of good.
- 33:46Friends. Yeah, good friends.
- 33:47You have you have space in your life to have a few good friends
- 33:49and then other friends that just, you know, you can have
- 33:52enjoy your time and stuff with acquaintances.
- 33:54Yeah. But like, what I reckon, though,
- 33:58is it's like it's actually useful to have lots of people in
- 34:04your network. So I think, yeah, that's more
- 34:06like networking. And that sounds a bit cringe,
- 34:08though, even to say that because it's like you're trying to use
- 34:10people and then you have a few friends that are actually your
- 34:13friends. Yeah, I don't know.
- 34:15No, I don't think it's cringe, bro.
- 34:16I think it's that's real. Yeah.
- 34:19I do think it's real, actually, because how many people do you
- 34:22know, you know, do exactly what you've just said?
- 34:26Yeah, these everyone, everyone does Everyone.
- 34:29Yeah, everyone does it, you know, so I don't think it's a
- 34:31crunch thing to say. Yeah, it's just, it's just, it
- 34:34gets to a point, though, where I have friends like that.
- 34:36Like I can't have conversations with certain friends about
- 34:39certain topics because they just have no idea about it.
- 34:41Yeah. And then vice versa.
- 34:43I don't have an idea on or, they just.
- 34:45Won't want to talk about. They won't have fun talking
- 34:47about it. Yeah, yeah.
- 34:47Like, don't talk to me about Yu-gi-oh or Pokémon because I
- 34:52have no idea, but you know what I mean, you know?
- 34:54So just just as a small example there, but yeah, come to me and
- 34:58talk to me about sports, bro. I'll most likely get into it.
- 35:00Yeah, hundreds of years. So I definitely do have friends
- 35:03that fit certain mold so that I know.
- 35:05OK, cool. I want to hang out with you for
- 35:07this reason. I want to hang out for you with
- 35:09you for this reason, etcetera. You know, but most of my mates
- 35:12anyway generally like the same stuff as me anyway.
- 35:14So that's the way I. Find What if you don't have many
- 35:17friends? Though Yeah, see, I'm not what
- 35:19if? What if you have like hardly any
- 35:21friends? What if you have hardly any
- 35:23friends? And like, I guess it, I guess it
- 35:29kind of doesn't relate to this question because you're saying
- 35:30that surface level relationships are OK and this is a bit
- 35:35different. But like, and it's actually any
- 35:39moving country at the start as well.
- 35:41You find that like you don't have any friends when you move.
- 35:43And then so you're often making like surface level friendships
- 35:48and you're not making deep friendships, but you want deep
- 35:50friendships around kind of thing.
- 35:52You know what I mean? So it could be a tough one when
- 35:55you're trying to be like, let's be friends to this person and
- 35:58they're like, Oh no, you're just my like work friend or you're
- 36:02my, you're my gym friend or my league friend.
- 36:04Or what I've found, what I've found since some of the
- 36:06countries though, like how I bet basically judge it.
- 36:10I'll say you're my friend if you come and visit me or I come and
- 36:15visit you. Yeah.
- 36:16If you don't do that, bro, you're not really a friend.
- 36:18You're just like a you know someone you know.
- 36:22Can't catch up with yeah. I just know you.
- 36:24Yeah, but if we don't catch up, like if you don't fly here or I
- 36:28fly home and catch up with you and I don't send you or I don't
- 36:31send you a message even like on a regular basis, you're not
- 36:34really my mate. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I reckon I
- 36:36agree. That's something that I've kind
- 36:38of recently started to really understand, especially with this
- 36:42wedding stuff that's happening. But that would be you would have
- 36:46to dig deep into like your who's your actual friend in that kind
- 36:49of situation? And The thing is, what's crazy
- 36:53to me about things like this is people get really selfish too.
- 36:56And, and, and they make it about themselves a lot.
- 36:58Yeah. That's, that's something that I
- 37:00just, I cannot, I can't stand shit like that.
- 37:02Yeah. So that's, that's where I'm at.
- 37:04But yeah, so I definitely have friends for certain things.
- 37:06Yeah, the the other thing I just want to touch on as well to
- 37:09related to that is like drinking friends.
- 37:12Cuz I went through obviously a partying phase and that kind of
- 37:16thing. And you think you have real good
- 37:17friends, but you actually look back and realize, bro, I'm only
- 37:21hanging out with them while I'm drinking.
- 37:22And then you think, I wonder if I'll do something with them
- 37:25outside of drinking. And then you feel like it will
- 37:27just be awkward. Yeah.
- 37:28And then so like. You feel like you need a beer in
- 37:31your hand and be. Able to yeah, have a
- 37:32conversation, talk to them or like to we actually need to do
- 37:35something that is drinking to to party.
- 37:37Yeah. So that that's probably not a
- 37:40that's not a deep friendship, even though you spend so much
- 37:43time with them because you're probably because I was drinking
- 37:44with them so much. But really it was just a
- 37:48drinking relationship that like I wanted someone to go and, you
- 37:53know, out with me or something like that.
- 37:55Yeah, yeah, but that's another one.
- 37:57I reckon heaps people have big problems.
- 37:58Are they it's like drinking friends and then like, I don't
- 38:04know. So would you would you say it's
- 38:05a wrap it up kind of thing? What would you say would be your
- 38:11like indicator for a true friend versus just a surface friend?
- 38:15Like what's something that you would do with them?
- 38:17What's something you would expect from them or what's what
- 38:22would you say? Bro, like for me, you're my mate
- 38:25if let's say, like a good example is like our wedding,
- 38:32Yeah, bro, you're my mate if you're coming to my wedding.
- 38:35Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, if you've made the effort,
- 38:37you've purchased tickets, you've got your accommodation and
- 38:40you're there, bro. You're my mate.
- 38:41Because that shows me you really care about about myself and my
- 38:46partner and. And, and, you know, our
- 38:47friendship. Yeah.
- 38:48Whereas I found people have made-up, not excuses, but we
- 38:53gave everyone two years, mostly my family and Hanley's family
- 38:57members to to be able to afford to.
- 38:59Obviously, it was gonna have to be an overseas wedding anyway.
- 39:01Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I've found in that two years
- 39:04there are some friends or family members who haven't even
- 39:08bothered saving, and that's you. I'm just like, right That I
- 39:10don't really want to be around that person then.
- 39:13And like sometimes, you know, that like it's the fact that
- 39:17they just maybe didn't like obvious, yeah, like they should
- 39:21be organized enough to like, yeah, to to put you guys, you
- 39:26know, at a certain point that you booked the trip and that
- 39:28kind of thing. But I've, I've similar friends
- 39:30like that as well where it's like it's not getting married.
- 39:33But if I do something and I just know they're not organized.
- 39:37And so I know if I said, let's do this, they'll come do it, but
- 39:41they're not organized and they won't take the initiative to do
- 39:45that. Kind of, I don't know, make
- 39:47effort. And then so I'm like, so then
- 39:50you have to think like you, you would do that, make the effort,
- 39:54I think, but you're just not yeah, organized or like, that's
- 39:57what I, I think. But one of the big ones for me
- 40:00is like when I, when I go home to New Zealand or something and,
- 40:03or if I go anywhere, it's like, OK, can I just go over and hang
- 40:10out with this person and me? We just, there'd be no other
- 40:13thing other than us just catching up.
- 40:15Like, could we just sit in a car and talk, you know, Because I
- 40:19think I feel like. I don't know, I just always
- 40:22think about that drinking thing and I'm like, well, I probably
- 40:24wouldn't hang out with you if we didn't win drinking.
- 40:26Yeah, we wouldn't have anything to talk about or something like,
- 40:28you know, yeah. So I always think about that,
- 40:30like, could we just hang out in a car, just talk without
- 40:34anything helping us in the social situation?
- 40:39Bro you should have we low key you could put that to the test
- 40:42thing yeah that's a new YouTube YouTube video just.
- 40:45Every friend. Hey, every friend.
- 40:46But then next Saturday, yeah, we got a three hour car ride.
- 40:50It doesn't work and you look at your mail like fucking ugly cat.
- 40:57Yes, yeah, that's how I would test it sometimes.
- 41:02That's a good test, yeah. Car ride, Yeah.
- 41:05No drinking my best mate. I know he's my best mate because
- 41:09honestly, we, we go first and foremost go visit, bro.
- 41:12Every time I go home. Yeah, bro.
- 41:14Andy and and his his partner Maddie, Yeah.
- 41:17Almost want to spend every single day with us.
- 41:19Yeah. Yeah.
- 41:19Like that's how I know, bro. Cool.
- 41:20That's, that's a real mate, you know, and vice versa, you know,
- 41:23like the same thing. Yeah.
- 41:25And they visit, they visit here. They visit us a couple of times,
- 41:28you know, since we've been here. We've gone overseas together a
- 41:30couple of times since we've been here, you know, So I feel like
- 41:32that's how you know, you, you know, that's a genuine mate.
- 41:34Yeah. So that's, that's a real ride or
- 41:36die. Yeah.
- 41:37Surface level, yeah, you're right.
- 41:40Yeah, yeah, you can be my gym partner, my drinking partner and
- 41:43that, but you, you, you have a, you have a place in my life.
- 41:47But yeah, there's I guess when you you can use that to kind of
- 41:52segregate who's in my yeah, ride of dial and we're just a little
- 41:55friend. Yeah, exactly.
- 41:56So it'll be interesting to see what our followers obviously
- 42:00have to say about that, yeah, as well, because I'm sure, I'm sure
- 42:04they got some interesting stuff as well.
- 42:05So yeah.
