A new study by BMC Public Health analyzing the posts of fitness influencers shows that about two-thirds of what they post on social media is wrong…and may be doing more harm than good.

Should there be some kind of vetting performed on the information they provide, should they be banned for posting self-serving misinformation, or is this just a “buyer beware” situation? We chat about these questions and offer a critical piece of advice for evaluating any social media post.

1
00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:14.240
We got two breaking stories what too. Don't let them break me? New

2
00:00:14.240 --> 00:00:20.760
evidence science science caught up. No
alcohol is good for you and hot people

3
00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:24.199
on the internet don't know how to
work out? Those are like the breaking

4
00:00:24.280 --> 00:00:28.760
stories in the fitness space this last
couple of weeks. Dude, alcohol is

5
00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:33.399
not good for you. News alert, news alert, news alert. And

6
00:00:33.520 --> 00:00:37.359
all these hot people working out on
the internet that are really hot have no

7
00:00:37.439 --> 00:00:41.840
clue what they're doing. Correct.
Yeah, that's shattering people's brains. I

8
00:00:42.520 --> 00:00:45.520
saw like when they were kind of
first putting out like the alcohol, like

9
00:00:45.679 --> 00:00:49.600
new study shows. It's like and
I put it on my story and I'm

10
00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:54.719
like, new study shows neurotoxin.
Yeah not good at any amount. Yeah,

11
00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:59.240
a small amount of poisons still not
good. Yeah it's still not still

12
00:00:59.280 --> 00:01:02.159
not good. Yeah, it's still
not gonna help. It's just so funny.

13
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:03.680
It's like a shout out to people
that you know, I don't give

14
00:01:03.680 --> 00:01:07.120
a fuck if you drink or not, but it's like this, know what

15
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:08.480
you're doing, right, I don't
justify it. I don't drink. I

16
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:12.400
haven't drank for ten years now,
but like I do nicotine. Yeah,

17
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:15.000
I's still like I know, it's
not like I know, it's a healthy

18
00:01:15.159 --> 00:01:19.079
chemicals healthy you know. I technically
like depends on who you who you read.

19
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:23.239
Totally good for brain function. Uh, it's good for cognitive health.

20
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:26.359
True. Allegedly it might review up. I don't. It does review up.

21
00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:29.159
It might be a little stress on
the hart, but if you're working

22
00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:32.519
out, maybe it's not a big
deal. Cross It went through the phase

23
00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:36.120
where a beer post workout. I
was just thinking about this in a shout

24
00:01:36.239 --> 00:01:40.560
the beer mile, and they thought
they were legitimately arguing that that's the best

25
00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:44.200
post workout you could have because the
carbs an alcohol, and like, what

26
00:01:44.200 --> 00:01:47.200
the hell, there's nothing worse for
alcohol post workout, right because of the

27
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:51.840
hyper kills your Yeah, I'm sure, and you're trying to recover it fucks

28
00:01:51.840 --> 00:01:53.640
it all up, which just all
the logic. I was thinking back,

29
00:01:53.959 --> 00:01:57.920
and this isn't not any particular person, but just like the culture. I

30
00:01:57.959 --> 00:02:01.719
guess it's actually a hot tip too, CrossFit too that they evolved well,

31
00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:07.519
um, but to evolve well,
they were a little bit knuckleheaded in the

32
00:02:07.599 --> 00:02:10.759
moment. Macro. They did a
great job. They seeked experts and learn

33
00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:14.680
from them in each category because they
want to be good at everything. They

34
00:02:14.680 --> 00:02:16.080
didn't want to be good at one
thing, so they did, you know,

35
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:20.560
find the best and learn from that. But to level up. They

36
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.919
were fucking in the micro knuckleheads and
a half. Like I remember interviewing or

37
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:28.439
talking to tons of people in that
space, high level coaches, high level

38
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:30.560
athletes in the space, and they'd
look at me when I when I said

39
00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:34.479
that, like I tracked calories,
like I'm a fucking idiot, Like,

40
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:37.840
well why do that? Like just
don't eat rice or whatever, right,

41
00:02:37.879 --> 00:02:40.319
like, just don't a processing Yeah, Like, oh well that's funny.

42
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:44.439
You just go paleo instead, Like
that's actually what's gonna make you an athlete.

43
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:46.719
I'm like, okay, man,
i'll talk talk to me in six

44
00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:49.319
years and like, let's see where
your brain's at now. I'll be the

45
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:52.879
first to admit you were a paleohead. Well, I bought the Paleo cookbook.

46
00:02:53.039 --> 00:02:55.439
There's nothing wrong with paleo. No, there's not. It's just it's

47
00:02:55.439 --> 00:03:00.560
actually very easy. Yeah, it's
just when you're knuckleheadedly going to come against

48
00:03:00.639 --> 00:03:04.479
me when evidence proves everything I'm saying
is cracked. Yeah, it's kind of

49
00:03:04.560 --> 00:03:07.360
back in the you know, early
two thousands, you know, two thousand

50
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:09.400
and tens. I guess when you
walked into a CrossFit gym and you sign

51
00:03:09.479 --> 00:03:13.159
on the dotted line, you know, join like they hand you a paleo

52
00:03:13.199 --> 00:03:15.599
cookbook and you know you get a
pair of At the time, you got

53
00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:17.960
a pair of you got a pair
of tube socks up almost up to the

54
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:22.680
shin, and a pack of beef
jerky, pack of jerky, and a

55
00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:24.879
fit ad a fit and a beer. Yeah, and a beer, and

56
00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:28.960
then probably a headband. At the
time, it wasn't necessarily the nanos was

57
00:03:28.960 --> 00:03:31.280
the nanos didn't come out yet.
It was more the uh, the Vibram

58
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:36.120
five finger shoes. A pair of
those. Yeah, I'm still not that

59
00:03:36.159 --> 00:03:38.080
against them. I'm definitely against them. They make they're cooler now again and

60
00:03:38.800 --> 00:03:40.840
it has been ten years. Man, it's coming back in style. Every

61
00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:45.280
every everything comes back. But the
functionality of them does actually seem pretty good.

62
00:03:45.319 --> 00:03:46.120
I don't know if my tozies would
like it. Well, they weren't

63
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:49.560
good for cross because they would just
blow out. They're chose literally blow out

64
00:03:49.560 --> 00:03:53.520
the sides. They weren't built for
like high level, like maneuvering, like

65
00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:54.560
green and a rope on them all
day. They made for going up and

66
00:03:54.599 --> 00:03:58.360
down on a trail maybe a little
bit, but they would smell so fucking

67
00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:01.240
bad. The stank from those it
was like, yeah, extra dirty sock.

68
00:04:01.360 --> 00:04:04.199
It was then they started making like
the sock with the toes and it's

69
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:09.000
like, what are we doing?
Yeah, this is too much spreading your

70
00:04:09.039 --> 00:04:11.719
toes. It is a good thing. Being able to spread your toes is

71
00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:14.000
a good thing. Not being able
to spread your toes is a bad thing.

72
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:16.720
I think that's kind of the like, that's the guiding principle. If

73
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:19.399
you can put your foot in something
that's gonna let you spread your toes,

74
00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:24.519
then you're good shape. Well,
for four days a week, I wear

75
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:30.639
zero drop shoes. I wear like
a wide logs zero drop shoe from the

76
00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:33.240
brand is you know, shout out
to zero or kind of a sponsor.

77
00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:38.040
But yeah, I was where I
was purchasing their ship before I bought them,

78
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:41.560
or I mean before I was getting
them. But it was just like,

79
00:04:41.600 --> 00:04:44.519
man, it's like any of those
other fucking shoes zero drop, zero

80
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:47.079
drop, spread toe and like,
honestly, man, like it's funny,

81
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:50.000
like my foot did grow like half
a size and shoes, which is weird.

82
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:55.720
What happened to her that also grow
dude. Yeah, oh yeah,

83
00:04:55.839 --> 00:05:00.920
that's the way. It just got
like thicker, yeah, necessarily longer.

84
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.480
I don't know, it just needed
to breathe all guests. Yeah, I'm

85
00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:05.800
gonna stop wearing underwear and see if
my cob gross it was strange. Yeah,

86
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:09.839
that's why here trying to grow some
choads around here. And then I

87
00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:13.519
also just started treating everybody like they
were beneath me, because like, look,

88
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:15.920
I'm not I'm you know, I'm
zero drop. I don't wear cushion,

89
00:05:16.040 --> 00:05:20.439
yeah, oh you and your ballsup
ball shoes and honestly, like I

90
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:24.240
just and to be like kid in
the side. Like it actually really helped

91
00:05:24.279 --> 00:05:28.560
with some back paint I was having
um from other just like designer like shoes

92
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:30.439
that aren't made to be worn in
all day. I've been wearing flats since

93
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:33.439
I powerlifted because of that. Ye, my daily like not always zero drop,

94
00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:38.600
but even like Jordan One's, I
gets something with not a huge heels

95
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:41.600
or not he's what's it called arch
support, yeah, or or like yeah,

96
00:05:41.639 --> 00:05:44.000
the balancing act all day Like yeah, that shit's comfy, but then

97
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:46.879
I can like feel my shit.
Yeah, and I still wear shoes like

98
00:05:46.920 --> 00:05:48.759
that, but just not as often, and I definitely have felt like my

99
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:53.800
lower half has felt better for sure, personally, I mean not for everybody.

100
00:05:54.399 --> 00:05:57.319
I don't know how we got there, but just my breaking news.

101
00:05:57.680 --> 00:06:01.959
Yeah cross ye drinking alcohol, that's
right, but everyone did it yeah post

102
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:05.399
Yeah, any stimulant post workout is
actually like what you should never fucking do.

103
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:10.000
Yeah, And there shouldn't be no
caffeine, no nicotine, no anything

104
00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:14.560
post no ice bath. The whole
ice bath thing has been like debunked,

105
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:17.920
right, That's like it also depends
like there's so many other like factors that

106
00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:21.439
are important to like you're timing with
ice baths. Yeah, where like everybody

107
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:25.279
just fucking wants to just do a
workout and jump in an ice bath on

108
00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:28.720
Instagram right now, it is like
fucking triggering. Yeah. Well that actually

109
00:06:28.759 --> 00:06:31.800
comes back around to sort of the
point about you know, they did this

110
00:06:31.879 --> 00:06:38.759
study of a hundred influencers on Instagram
and two thirds of them don't know shit.

111
00:06:39.319 --> 00:06:43.079
Like that's just a fucking an echo
chamber of bullshit. So that's what

112
00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:46.120
I was going to get to.
If you're a content creator that's an influencer,

113
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:49.000
you don't have any education, you
don't have any And yeah, everyone

114
00:06:49.040 --> 00:06:51.839
talks shit on like personal training certificates, but a lot of them have like

115
00:06:53.560 --> 00:06:57.040
not depth of knowledge, but at
least legitimate knowledge nowadays, Like even when

116
00:06:57.079 --> 00:06:59.759
I took my NASM, and first
off, I was gonna say NASM,

117
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:01.000
Yeah, I took that in two
thousand and eight, and it's way more

118
00:07:01.040 --> 00:07:03.600
knowledge than any of these. It
was not fucking easy to get. No,

119
00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:06.879
as many people as I talked to
that failed. Yes, it's not

120
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:10.480
fucking easy. I took it.
Also, it's hard, yeah, and

121
00:07:10.519 --> 00:07:14.639
it has like yeah, I studied
for sure that had legitimate shit in it,

122
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:16.160
and like, yeah, does that
make you an automatic good trainer?

123
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:19.199
No, but you have a base
of knowledge that is much more difficult than

124
00:07:19.279 --> 00:07:23.360
yeah, just turning an Instagram app
on and then like you said, it's

125
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:28.800
an echo chamber, Like it's literally
fitness content is just chat GBT because what

126
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:32.920
it's ripping from is already incorrect.
So if you're ripping from this is too

127
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:39.480
heavy, right, right, you're
taking incorrect and then regurgitating incorrect rather than

128
00:07:39.519 --> 00:07:45.040
like actually researching, Like everyone just
yeah just retweets. It's just a retweet,

129
00:07:45.759 --> 00:07:47.720
but in their own form, I
can't do it. Anymore. It's

130
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.439
getting bad. I would actually think
two thirds is generous. It probably is.

131
00:07:51.720 --> 00:07:56.439
Let's say this one study and they
you know, and the interesting thing

132
00:07:56.480 --> 00:07:59.720
about this study is it's it was
international. It's not just us. So

133
00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:03.040
yeah, I wonderful worse or better
worse, we gonna be worse. We

134
00:08:03.079 --> 00:08:07.800
don't care about the truth in America
anymore. Everybody that was fucking taking CBD

135
00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:11.199
is now doing the ice bath.
Dude. It's just like it's the it's

136
00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:15.600
the curing guiety, cure stress,
cure everything, like small dick, like

137
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.959
small small cock, small bank account, you know, small deadlift, loose

138
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:24.279
butthole, yep, ice bath,
and like it's it's man, it's the

139
00:08:24.360 --> 00:08:30.480
same people there. These trends are
going after the same sucker. Yeah,

140
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:33.200
no, it is the exact same
people. It's the same people. It's

141
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:35.679
like, oh, sabe, he's
gonna change your life. You're gonna it's

142
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:39.080
gonna cure you of everything. But
what's funny is gonna cure you of everything.

143
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:41.759
It's like that crowd too though that
moves is almost like what used to

144
00:08:41.799 --> 00:08:46.080
be or kind of part of the
evidence science based people, but they're just

145
00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:48.519
like skewed, you know what,
I mean, like because they're the same

146
00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:52.440
ones that will be like yeah Macro's
and I'm like, well, yeah,

147
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:56.600
but you can't be like so solid
and like one belief based on evidence and

148
00:08:56.600 --> 00:09:01.399
then allow all your others to be
like random, you know what I mean.

149
00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:05.200
Yeah, keep people aren't consistent though, Yeah no that yeah exactly,

150
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:07.279
And then it just turns into this
fucking thing, dude, where it's like,

151
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:11.639
if I don't post me doing this, my followers are going to think

152
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:15.759
that I'm not with the times,
where I'm not doing what's currently popular.

153
00:09:16.000 --> 00:09:18.399
Yeah, so I'm just gonna do
this thing that I don't believe in,

154
00:09:18.080 --> 00:09:24.879
and then it just turns into this
weird echo chamber of just bullshit and everyone's

155
00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:28.840
like, yeah, no it is. It's literally grabbing trash to spread trash,

156
00:09:28.879 --> 00:09:33.159
and like eyes bats makes sense,
and I understand. I think evidence

157
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:37.039
obviously understands it and has explained it
many ways. If you guys haven't heard,

158
00:09:37.039 --> 00:09:39.200
we've had podcasts on it, and
there's info out there if you want

159
00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:45.519
to get how to actually apply it. But on like the placebo effect,

160
00:09:45.759 --> 00:09:48.879
like it's a shock to the body, right, Like it's literally just cold.

161
00:09:48.240 --> 00:09:52.399
So it's the same idea as taking
a pre workout that's just loaded with

162
00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:56.279
like beta alanine and beta alanin does
have some positive effects in training, but

163
00:09:56.679 --> 00:09:58.840
the point is that it makes you
feel something, so then it's way easy

164
00:09:58.879 --> 00:10:03.720
to justify that this is doing something
right. Feeling something and doing something aren't

165
00:10:03.720 --> 00:10:07.759
the same, which is why supplements
got spiked with with actual steroids or caffeine

166
00:10:07.840 --> 00:10:11.480
or whatever. Yeah, anything to
make you feel Yeah, no, And

167
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:15.840
who doesn't love a good tingle from
some beta alumine? Yeah? Yeah,

168
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:18.240
man, they feel like I'm fucking
like man, like I'm working extra hard,

169
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:22.000
right, or like some shit to
make you sweat, right, Not

170
00:10:22.159 --> 00:10:24.320
damn, I just work so hard, Like sweating doesn't necessarily mean any of

171
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:26.600
that. And then yeah, obviously
an ice bath when you worked out or

172
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:31.000
diadn't work out and you just hop
into forty degree water, your body's going

173
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:33.600
to tell you like, damn,
this is stimulus. We're doing something.

174
00:10:33.679 --> 00:10:39.039
Yeah, And it's exactly the opposite, because the adaptation has to come from

175
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:46.559
from your body reacting in all across
the spectrum of hormones and and you know,

176
00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:52.559
enzymes and peptides and proteins and glycogen
and all that shit. And you're

177
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:54.279
shutting it down by by getting into
an ice bath. Yeah. I do

178
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:58.519
think there's some hormonal benefits right when
we're talking, like dopamine and stuff,

179
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:01.200
but it's diminished returns. So as
soon as you start doing an ice bath

180
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:07.480
every single day for three hundred days
or whatever your Instagram storyline is, now,

181
00:11:07.519 --> 00:11:11.559
you're probably not getting the same benefits. Yeah, and they're like similar

182
00:11:11.600 --> 00:11:13.039
with like sauna stuff, like,
yeah, there's some you know, heat

183
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:16.679
protein shock proteins that can maybe help
you gain some muscle and live healthier.

184
00:11:16.720 --> 00:11:20.840
But sitting in a sauna an hour
every day for the rest of your life

185
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:22.399
is now we have diminishing returns and
we're not going to get that either.

186
00:11:22.879 --> 00:11:26.480
It's like, what are we doing? Yeah maybe if Yeah, dude,

187
00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:30.679
I don't even know. I guess
it's like, man, it's just your

188
00:11:30.759 --> 00:11:33.360
classic snake oil. Yeah, this
is the This is these things that we

189
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:37.840
see all the time in these in
these trends and ebbs and flows in this

190
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:39.720
industry. It's just it's just snake
oil. What I hate though, is

191
00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:43.960
that, I guess to me,
the content creation started so organically with YouTube

192
00:11:45.000 --> 00:11:46.440
and podcasts and stuff. It was
supposed to be the real ones, and

193
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:48.799
it was supposed to be the people
that really want to help is supposed to

194
00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:52.120
be the fitness professionals, supposed to
be people with the skill or a passion

195
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:56.759
for what we do, spreading that
community and culture. And then because fitness

196
00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:01.240
has always had snake oils, right, the shake way, the tummy t

197
00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:05.399
and like fitness is based on a
lot of industries are, but fitness in

198
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:09.039
particular, because it's so tied to
the looks and so tied to how we

199
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:13.720
feel our identity, malating emotions,
it's way easier, right, Um,

200
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:18.000
But the core of YouTube, Instagram, podcast, it was supposed to be

201
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.159
like this niche of people that we're
doing it quote unquote right, And the

202
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.240
snake oil is just louder now than
ever in our niche. And I think

203
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:28.840
that's the part that's disheartening to me. Yeah, because people do just want

204
00:12:28.879 --> 00:12:33.000
to be an influence or whatever that
means, rather than you're a fitness professional,

205
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:35.320
how can I reach more people?
I use the internet now it's how

206
00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:39.679
can I reach people to make money? And then their most disappointing thing is

207
00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:46.000
the people who actually like have credentials, who fall into the same traps of

208
00:12:46.159 --> 00:12:52.159
chasing um chasing ads and and yeah. Then and they don't have morality and

209
00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:54.960
they're just trying to make money out
Is that a real word? I said,

210
00:12:54.000 --> 00:13:00.639
morality? Or yeah, yeah,
that is all their trees. Yeah,

211
00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:01.639
and then how did you make the
quick buck? But yeah, how

212
00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:05.879
many how many CBDs six years ago? How many CBD codes did you see

213
00:13:05.919 --> 00:13:09.399
on the Instagram daily? Oh my
god? And they're gone? And how

214
00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:13.200
many do you see now? CBD
disappeared. They're not gone everywhere because in

215
00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:18.399
uh, because there's no legal pot
in like in the UK, Okay,

216
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:24.000
and particularly in in England where I
was so like the one of the airbnbs

217
00:13:24.000 --> 00:13:28.840
that we stayed in was owned by
a guy who has a CBD beverage company.

218
00:13:28.919 --> 00:13:31.559
Interesting. I mean, CBD is
definitely still around, but the codes,

219
00:13:33.000 --> 00:13:35.759
Yeah, it's it's because because the
social media leads leads the world,

220
00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:39.440
it leads culture. Now I don't
really hear about it anywhere. Yeah,

221
00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:41.120
but if you go to CBS,
we'll find CBD in our shampoo, and

222
00:13:41.159 --> 00:13:45.240
we'll find CBD everywhere that it's more
commercial now, you're right, like it's

223
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:48.879
not on the front mines of every
creator. Yeah, and all the people

224
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:52.080
that I know that we're taking CBD. Yeah, they're not taking it anymore,

225
00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:54.279
not only taking swearing by it.
Yeah, it was like it was

226
00:13:54.279 --> 00:13:58.240
like an identity, like I've taken
it, and I'll just say like yeah,

227
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:00.840
like you know whatever, but yeah, it's an identity. And then

228
00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:03.080
when you push it on me that
it's this miracle thing is the issue?

229
00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:09.519
Right, I drink caffeine. I
don't push it that it's changed my life

230
00:14:09.879 --> 00:14:11.559
or that will change your life.
Yeah, it's in the message. It

231
00:14:11.600 --> 00:14:16.960
sucks. It's interesting. Of the
accounts that they looked at, they m

232
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.759
this is the kind of content that
was that was in them. Uh.

233
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:31.320
Ninety three percent of the accounts had
exercise video, had exercise fitness motivational type

234
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:37.679
posts, right, seventy six percent
had example workouts, forty nine percent fitness

235
00:14:37.679 --> 00:14:43.200
related hashtags. I saw it's good. I don't remember the name, so

236
00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:46.440
I don't talk shit, but I
think it's a pro bodybuilder. Right,

237
00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:48.600
you're like, all right, like
that guy, at least I put in

238
00:14:48.679 --> 00:14:52.159
some work to build a physique,
genetically, drugs whatever to get to the

239
00:14:52.240 --> 00:14:54.039
highest level. Pro bodybuilding is still
tough. It's not gotten easier, it's

240
00:14:54.039 --> 00:14:56.559
gotten more. Everybody's taking the same
ship, so you still got to stand

241
00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:01.399
out. He's got to do something
and his like, yeah, like workout

242
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:05.360
video was doing push ups on a
barbell with a plate on his back,

243
00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:11.039
like like the barbell had weights on
it. Yeah, so you think it

244
00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:13.879
like set up for one thirty five. Yeah, I guess a little bit

245
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:16.960
of stability. But I'm like that
that has just less than zero to do

246
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:22.360
with bodybuilding, less than zero to
do with anything good because here's a fucking

247
00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:24.720
bench and you're approach Why. I
know he doesn't do that. He does,

248
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.679
but he has to do that to
get these stupid likes to do this

249
00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:33.440
stupid thing to sell his cold plunge. And I like cold plunges. I

250
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:35.039
love the idea of it. I
do think it probably has some mental stuff.

251
00:15:35.080 --> 00:15:39.720
You know, Um, I know
a lot of high performers that utilize

252
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:41.080
it either in the morning or at
night, because I think I don't know

253
00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:43.639
the exact hours, but you know, if you're four or five six hours

254
00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:48.039
away from a workout, it probably
won't plunge r I pertrephee your performance.

255
00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.399
So if that's something that's part of
your mental routine, I think that's great.

256
00:15:50.440 --> 00:15:54.320
Like like a meditation, I know
a lot of people, right,

257
00:15:54.360 --> 00:15:56.000
they hop in there and then you
got to you're forced to focus on your

258
00:15:56.000 --> 00:15:58.480
breathing. I think that's all fucking
great. Now we're not talking about that,

259
00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:00.919
we're talking about sucker version of that. Yeah, yeah, we're talking

260
00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:07.080
about the diluted regurgitation. I think
cold plunges probably have some application. I

261
00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:11.000
just do it around forever in sports, right, yeah, and they yeah,

262
00:16:11.200 --> 00:16:14.799
and in season it probably has a
ton of stuff, right, Like

263
00:16:14.799 --> 00:16:17.600
there's a reason Lebron's icing his knees
every night because he has to play every

264
00:16:17.600 --> 00:16:19.919
twenty four hours to produce his inflammation. Yeah, like we know what cold

265
00:16:21.000 --> 00:16:22.679
us. Yeah, and so when
we're doing it quickly. Yeah, that

266
00:16:22.799 --> 00:16:27.720
there's definitely application. But yeah,
it's the don't don't hate the player,

267
00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:30.120
hate the game. Well I hate
the player, Yeah, yeah, I'm

268
00:16:30.159 --> 00:16:33.600
hating the player. Or don't kill
the message. No, fuck this message.

269
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:37.679
The messenger in this case is the
problem because they're they they're not actually

270
00:16:37.720 --> 00:16:41.320
doing it all the time. They're
just doing it for shocial clout. Yeah,

271
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:42.879
and they're doing it for like the
benefits. We're talking about the cloud

272
00:16:42.919 --> 00:16:47.519
chasing ice bath and they smeared the
message along the way to deliver to us.

273
00:16:47.600 --> 00:16:49.960
Correct, that's issue if you brought
me the message clearly. Like even

274
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:52.440
we're talking about was hanging out with
Tim Kennedy. He said that exact same

275
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:55.840
thing. He's like, Yeah,
sometimes I do like cold plunges. I'll

276
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:57.200
do it first thing in the morning
to kind of wake up and get my

277
00:16:57.279 --> 00:17:00.039
mind right. He said. I
never a post workout, you know,

278
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:03.840
Like he said that in his TikTok
as he was filming it. Yeah,

279
00:17:03.919 --> 00:17:06.480
I'm like, all right, like
at least you're trying to give the right

280
00:17:06.519 --> 00:17:08.680
message, yeah, rather than yeah, like, look at me be all

281
00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:12.000
jacked and sweaty after my workout.
So Danny does this thing where he does

282
00:17:12.079 --> 00:17:17.880
like the the fucking uh He'll do
the hot shower and then before he gets

283
00:17:17.880 --> 00:17:21.119
out he puts it all the way
to cold. Yeah fuck that. I

284
00:17:21.160 --> 00:17:22.920
was doing it in the summer.
You can do that. Well, I

285
00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:26.039
can't do that. I know.
When you have blonde hair, you're supposed

286
00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:30.880
to not wash your shit on it's
extra hot. Oh really yeah? Oh

287
00:17:30.960 --> 00:17:33.960
like I died yeah okay, yeah, yeah, not blondes. But when

288
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:36.440
he died, mine got kind of
yellow pretty quick. Yeah, So then

289
00:17:36.480 --> 00:17:38.319
I was doing it last summer.
But then I had a blonde in the

290
00:17:38.359 --> 00:17:41.960
winter, and I'm like, I
ain't doing cold in the winter. Apparently

291
00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:45.480
does it all the time. But
in the summer that you know, if

292
00:17:45.480 --> 00:17:48.119
it's if it's ninety degrees out,
then I don't mind if my hair is

293
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:51.880
all cold. That's that hot and
cold. Contrast shower, Yeah, contrast

294
00:17:52.200 --> 00:17:53.759
call. And then the last one
minute he has like one minute all the

295
00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:57.039
way cold stands. There's supposed to
be a thing, but how could it

296
00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:00.519
be a thing because it doesn't change
your your core body temperature. It barely

297
00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:04.240
changes your skin. Yeah, jolt, yeah, I think the mental sure,

298
00:18:04.400 --> 00:18:07.160
that's like the foam rolling and everything. If you tell me, Mike,

299
00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:11.279
I do this purely because it feels
good. Now my argument's gone.

300
00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:14.160
I can't make an argument against science
or by your boy. Bart is a

301
00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:17.160
big advocate of the phone Yeah.
I rip him every day about it,

302
00:18:17.240 --> 00:18:21.039
but but he does know, Yeah, he does know. All right,

303
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:22.680
it makes me feel good. I
do it. I'm like, all right,

304
00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:23.759
man, fucking phone roll. But
if you tell me your phone roll

305
00:18:23.799 --> 00:18:29.039
is going to fix your pain?
Now we got issues. I feel like

306
00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:32.920
it helps in the moment for some
things. It doesn't help the moment,

307
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:36.200
doesn't it helps the cause of why
that area keeps locking up. It's not

308
00:18:36.240 --> 00:18:37.599
going to fix that, yeah,
but it might loosen it up enough to

309
00:18:37.599 --> 00:18:41.039
where by the time you get to
the working out you're going to forget about

310
00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:44.759
it. I think it's complete and
utter bullshit. And if you tell me

311
00:18:44.799 --> 00:18:48.079
it makes your brain feel better about
what's going on, phone roll, your

312
00:18:48.119 --> 00:18:52.759
heart's desire. There's just no way
you're manipulating tissue with a piece of I

313
00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:55.359
don't think you are. It's nerves
that you're that you're affecting. It's not

314
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:59.319
it's not it's not actually tissues.
You're not changing any equality of tissue.

315
00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:02.079
But I think that you can fool
the nerves. I mean, that's like

316
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:07.440
the whole thing about about about tens
units, about eastem whatever is that you're

317
00:19:07.920 --> 00:19:11.440
you're fooling the nerves into giving up
the like pain cycle that they're in or

318
00:19:11.440 --> 00:19:17.000
whatever. Stems a little different though, because you're actually contracting yet or yeah,

319
00:19:17.079 --> 00:19:19.799
so like there may be more blood
flow through the area. Yeah,

320
00:19:19.839 --> 00:19:22.839
if you get a pinch nerve in
your back or whatever a lacross ball,

321
00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:27.079
feel feels pretty fucking good and make
it may make it possible for you to

322
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:30.720
do things in a workout that you
wouldn't be able to do if you've not

323
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:34.680
done. It doesn't solve the problem
over it's coming from, but it changes

324
00:19:34.680 --> 00:19:38.359
the sensation enough that you can get
through whatever. What about voodoo flossing,

325
00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:41.720
like restricting bud blood flow? I
think there might be something there, But

326
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:45.839
again, like I think rushing blood
back. I think any of these things,

327
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:48.759
your best option probably would be go
for a mile walk. Yeah,

328
00:19:48.759 --> 00:19:52.160
like everybody's got the time for that, No for sure, but yeah,

329
00:19:52.319 --> 00:19:56.680
but some of the fuckers be on
a phone roll or fifteen minutes. You

330
00:19:56.720 --> 00:19:57.480
can walk. You can walk a
mile in fifteen minutes, Yeah, might

331
00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:00.240
as well walk fifteen. I think
anything you can get to yeah, actually

332
00:20:00.319 --> 00:20:06.680
get your internals going um is always
going to be much more powerful than anything

333
00:20:06.680 --> 00:20:11.000
we try to do externally. Uh. Back to this real quick. Uh.

334
00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:18.000
Twenty four percent food posts encouraging healthy
eating. Twenty two percent photographic inspirational

335
00:20:18.079 --> 00:20:19.960
quotes. I feel like there's a
whole lot more of them, probably,

336
00:20:21.480 --> 00:20:25.640
uh, and maybe maybe not if
it's brand new, because pictures from TikTok

337
00:20:25.720 --> 00:20:27.599
when pictures aren't doing that good on
Instagram, So it might be a ton

338
00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:33.000
of that. Yeah, maybe so, and then uh, that's crazy to

339
00:20:33.079 --> 00:20:36.680
say that out loud, the thought
that pictures would not do that well on

340
00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:38.319
Instagram, that they said they're going
to try to go back pictures. That's

341
00:20:38.319 --> 00:20:41.039
what one of the I don't have
a secret saying that there. But then

342
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:45.160
they're doubling down on this whole real
ship. Yeah, did you see this

343
00:20:45.240 --> 00:20:52.319
is a side that um uh,
Zuckerberg did a BJJ tournament all that.

344
00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:55.240
It's all that. I mean,
it's all he has, like the world

345
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:56.880
best, world class training or anything. But at least he's putting his ass

346
00:20:56.960 --> 00:21:00.599
out there. I respect it.
No, Yeah, it's like he's getting

347
00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:03.640
good coaching. Yeah, it is
interesting to me, Um, how jiu

348
00:21:03.680 --> 00:21:08.359
jitsu's infiltrated culture everything like a lot
of yeah, a lot of like quote

349
00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:12.200
unquote high performers or it's well,
I think it's because it's it's hard.

350
00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:15.400
Yeah, it's like golf. It's
like either gonna do ujitsu, I'm gonna

351
00:21:15.400 --> 00:21:18.039
do golf. Yeah, it is
kind of similar. It's kind of cerebral.

352
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.920
Yeah, it's very it takes time, like there's no substance, there's

353
00:21:21.960 --> 00:21:25.920
no other option but time. Yeah, with golf and with jiu jitsu,

354
00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:27.200
right, it's like the only way
you're gonna get better, it's just showing

355
00:21:27.240 --> 00:21:30.000
up and practicing every time. That's
kind of why I like powerlifting. Yeah,

356
00:21:30.000 --> 00:21:33.039
it's to say it's in the same
Yeah, it's in the same window

357
00:21:33.039 --> 00:21:34.400
like weightlifting. Like you're not gonna
be goodt weightlifting for your first five years.

358
00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:37.799
Yeah, you gotta go crazy.
You're gonna be good in five years

359
00:21:37.839 --> 00:21:38.799
probably, like about with the goals
you were gonna want to hit when you

360
00:21:38.839 --> 00:21:41.119
come, unless you're like delusional.
Yeah, and then at tink about five

361
00:21:41.200 --> 00:21:44.680
years you get there and then let
genetics kind of play its course after that,

362
00:21:44.680 --> 00:21:45.640
but you have to let open the
door. Yeah at least. Yeah,

363
00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:48.799
let me say three years, three
to five years, depending on your

364
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:51.000
person. I agree, But like
it's just one of those things. It's

365
00:21:51.039 --> 00:21:52.640
like there's no like the only the
only answer is time. Yeah, reps.

366
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:59.799
Yeah. The next one was before
and after body progress photos at twenty

367
00:22:00.119 --> 00:22:02.720
sent and I feel like it's a
lot higher than that too. Um,

368
00:22:02.839 --> 00:22:04.599
probably just a lot of like I
don't know, if you think of everyone

369
00:22:04.640 --> 00:22:07.519
in five posts, yeah, maybe
there it's just one in five posts.

370
00:22:07.519 --> 00:22:11.119
That's pretty high. It's considered to
be pretty compelling content, whether or not

371
00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:18.039
you believe the um that the pictures
aren't are legit. It's pretty compelling days.

372
00:22:18.079 --> 00:22:21.880
You just don't know. Yeah,
it's so montified. Shop apps nowadays

373
00:22:21.920 --> 00:22:23.839
you don't have to edit yourself as
AI does it for you. Yeah,

374
00:22:23.839 --> 00:22:29.839
you're fucked. Goob is making the
whole photoshop deal. Photoshop deal like a

375
00:22:30.519 --> 00:22:33.160
you know, like what's good profession. It's kind of like a drama instagrammer.

376
00:22:33.400 --> 00:22:38.519
He's the guy that I saw that
guy, John Dorsey, Yeah,

377
00:22:38.559 --> 00:22:44.119
I see him. He's calling out
like celebs or like influencers on their photoshop

378
00:22:44.240 --> 00:22:48.559
stuff. Yeah, And I mean
he has a point because those people are

379
00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:53.480
are are selling things based on their
image. Yeah, they're full shit.

380
00:22:53.680 --> 00:22:56.240
Yeah, but like that's also always
been the case. Like it's like open

381
00:22:56.319 --> 00:23:00.759
up, open up a muscle Builder
magazine and like, oh, take this

382
00:23:00.839 --> 00:23:03.960
Cynthia six, You're gonna look like
me. It's like, well, no,

383
00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:06.440
I'm not. Yeah. I think
the deeper issue is just even selling

384
00:23:06.440 --> 00:23:08.200
stuff based on how you look.
Yeah, that's a real problem because if

385
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:11.200
we've been we've been falling for that
trick as old as time. Yeah,

386
00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:15.599
instead of photoshop, it was just
mostly just steroids. It's a lie in

387
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:19.200
itself, so double lie doesn't do
it for me. Yeah, I mean

388
00:23:22.119 --> 00:23:26.880
yeah, well we all we all
sell things based on how they make somebody

389
00:23:26.960 --> 00:23:30.279
look. Yeah, it's the same. Yeah, I try to do it

390
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:33.359
based on how someone feels. Yeah, yeah, it's different though I don't.

391
00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:36.119
I think it's based on how you
how you can feel. It's about

392
00:23:36.160 --> 00:23:37.839
being at a part of something.
Yeah, Like it's not necessarily about like,

393
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:41.160
yeah, it might feel like confident
because the way it fits on you

394
00:23:41.279 --> 00:23:45.799
or whatever, but it's mostly just
about like being a part of something where

395
00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:48.440
like I see some walking around with
a good Company shirt on or a c

396
00:23:48.599 --> 00:23:49.200
K shirt, Like, I know
what that person is about. Yeah,

397
00:23:49.240 --> 00:23:52.240
I know that person's like, probably
likes to work hard, probably got to

398
00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:56.279
work ethic, probably likes you know, like same interest as me. Probably

399
00:23:56.279 --> 00:23:59.359
likes coffee. I have a conversation
with this perfect stranger just based off with

400
00:23:59.400 --> 00:24:02.039
the shirt they got. Yeah,
rather than like I deadlift seven hundred,

401
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:03.960
and I deadlift seven hundred because of
this shirt. Yeah I have hot girl.

402
00:24:04.200 --> 00:24:07.640
It's not gonna make you. Yeah, I got your pr Yeah I

403
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:10.759
got hot girlfriend because of this shirt. I drive cool car. I drive

404
00:24:10.799 --> 00:24:14.039
cool car because of this shirt.
Yeah. Yeah, and that's just been

405
00:24:14.319 --> 00:24:17.880
I mean that's all you know,
like the sex cell shit, but yeah,

406
00:24:17.880 --> 00:24:21.160
it's just it's all of it.
So when you photoshop it, it's

407
00:24:21.240 --> 00:24:22.640
kind of whatever to me, Like, I don't think it's right. I

408
00:24:22.720 --> 00:24:27.039
like Mike's reverse photoshops better. That's
why that's why that all started. Those

409
00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:30.440
are hilarious. I mean, that's
why it all started because everyone's such a

410
00:24:30.440 --> 00:24:32.920
fucking punk ass dude. It's so
funny. Man, It's like, man,

411
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:36.480
it's just like they're probably they're probably
just as popular moving the needle,

412
00:24:36.519 --> 00:24:37.599
just as much if they weren't doing
it. Yeah, that's the sad.

413
00:24:37.640 --> 00:24:41.640
That's the thing is they're already good
looking people. They're like pro bodybuilders photoshopping

414
00:24:42.279 --> 00:24:45.759
mature a pro bodybuilder tell me you're
self conscious without telling me you're self conscious.

415
00:24:45.759 --> 00:24:49.720
It's like you see those videos of
Kendall Jenner, like she's like skinny

416
00:24:49.759 --> 00:24:52.480
thing girl, Like all of a
sudden, there's that video where like it

417
00:24:52.519 --> 00:24:55.599
glitches out in her waist gets like
super wide, then it went back.

418
00:24:55.680 --> 00:24:57.319
I think that guy might have google
guy on and posted It's like she had

419
00:24:57.359 --> 00:25:02.039
on the video version of like the
bo do you like Sculptor and like glitched

420
00:25:02.039 --> 00:25:04.359
in one of her videos, or
you can delete it? Makeup stuff?

421
00:25:04.359 --> 00:25:07.799
People always have filters on. I
mean, what's the different. Yeah,

422
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:10.599
what's the difference between photoshopping or shit
and then talking in a story with a

423
00:25:10.640 --> 00:25:14.359
filter on? Well, how much
of this is driven by distorted self image?

424
00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:15.759
Body? Just morphia? All this
stuff too? Yeah, I mean

425
00:25:15.799 --> 00:25:19.880
it's obviously it's creating body just for
morphia out in the in the world.

426
00:25:21.559 --> 00:25:25.400
But no one does a story anymore
without a filter on. I'm probably the

427
00:25:25.480 --> 00:25:29.759
only big poored, ugly eyed fucker
droopy eye that'll just whip up my camera

428
00:25:29.799 --> 00:25:33.640
and start talking. Yeah, I
guess I don't really post much. But

429
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:37.119
if you look at anyone's story and
you go top left for those listening,

430
00:25:37.160 --> 00:25:41.480
you can always see that it's filtered. Someone's always yeah, well it makes

431
00:25:41.480 --> 00:25:44.960
you makes you look smooth, bro, I'd look way younger, happier.

432
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:49.440
It gets furtile, you know,
preemptive botox. I cannot stop getting the

433
00:25:51.000 --> 00:25:57.400
ads for the the eyebag cream shit. Oh yeah, genetically have pretty.

434
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:03.039
My dad actually was kind of vein
he um. When he got older,

435
00:26:03.079 --> 00:26:07.960
he actually got it like surgically removed
tucked up just because it's more just like

436
00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:11.720
sucked the like the liquid, like
the fluid out. Like I don't think

437
00:26:11.720 --> 00:26:15.920
that they like they don't like didn't
really like snip it or pulled it up.

438
00:26:15.960 --> 00:26:18.039
I think they just more just like
removed it. But I'll tell you

439
00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:22.799
what though, it made him look
fucking twenty years younger. Classic surgery is

440
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:25.759
crazy. Like he was old.
He has always been, was always older

441
00:26:26.160 --> 00:26:29.960
he was when he passed. He
was in his set like early seventies.

442
00:26:30.440 --> 00:26:33.200
He was born in nineteen forty three, but like he always looked young for

443
00:26:33.240 --> 00:26:37.559
his age, like everybody always thought
he was like in his like late fifties,

444
00:26:37.759 --> 00:26:40.480
even when he was older. But
like I think like a lot of

445
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:41.400
it, honestly, like had to
do with he was super active and he

446
00:26:41.440 --> 00:26:45.079
was in good shape. But it
was like you know the ie bag stuff

447
00:26:45.119 --> 00:26:47.680
like that really like made him look
a lot. That one little thing.

448
00:26:47.720 --> 00:26:51.400
I'll go get it more to start
we start wearing those little uh stickers things.

449
00:26:51.440 --> 00:26:52.599
Yeah, a little silver stickers.
Yeah, where where do you get

450
00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:56.279
those? I don't know. CBS, Yeah, I don't know. There's

451
00:26:56.319 --> 00:26:59.240
ship. Maybe you don't want to
make us look less stressed than us.

452
00:26:59.240 --> 00:27:00.640
Thing we'll do the probably cold with
them. They're like cold ones. It's

453
00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:03.519
like I masks that are cold.
Yeah yeah, like's no way that helps.

454
00:27:03.640 --> 00:27:08.359
Or like the rollers maybe for like
five minutes, the micro needle rollers.

455
00:27:08.480 --> 00:27:11.200
No, that's for hair, but
they have like iced one for the

456
00:27:11.599 --> 00:27:15.119
Yeah, that that's real. I
think. Yeah that work, yeah,

457
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:17.759
actually works, not that you would
need it. But these other ones look

458
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:19.799
like a like a cement layer deal, you know, and and there you

459
00:27:19.839 --> 00:27:23.279
just freeze them. I think you're
just rolling your cold. I've seen those.

460
00:27:23.319 --> 00:27:26.400
It's like it's like like a stone. Yeah, I've seen that.

461
00:27:26.880 --> 00:27:32.279
Yeah, you get a cold.
Yeah, And I get that the elasticity

462
00:27:32.279 --> 00:27:34.119
and cold or something, but there's
no way that works. But what about

463
00:27:34.160 --> 00:27:37.079
like rock people though, I think
it's for rock people to fuck is the

464
00:27:37.160 --> 00:27:41.400
rock person or a rock person?
Dude? The people that like fuck them

465
00:27:41.400 --> 00:27:45.599
on? Yeah, onyx on.
They the people that you know are really

466
00:27:45.640 --> 00:27:49.440
into like oh the stones, crystals, crystals. Oh, some people put

467
00:27:49.440 --> 00:27:53.359
the christ talking about spiritual people.
So some people have rock people. They

468
00:27:55.359 --> 00:27:56.960
they have the rollers that they roll
all in their whole face. Yeah,

469
00:27:57.000 --> 00:28:00.720
like around there. Hey, they
like they're you know, third in their

470
00:28:00.920 --> 00:28:04.119
big brown eye. Yeah, they're
brown there sin Is that for good juju?

471
00:28:04.720 --> 00:28:08.000
God wrinkles? I think it's for
more both maybe double down? You

472
00:28:08.039 --> 00:28:11.119
just get it cold, then you're
doubling down. So now I have cold

473
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:15.039
spirits blessing me as I need that. Yeah, purple one maybe because I

474
00:28:15.119 --> 00:28:18.319
know color matters. Yeah, it's
funny like I h I have something that

475
00:28:18.400 --> 00:28:22.480
I got his gifts from my sister
because she's kind of into that ship my

476
00:28:22.480 --> 00:28:25.359
whole families and uh, I don't
know, man, Like I put one

477
00:28:25.400 --> 00:28:27.680
in my pocket onto one time,
just kind of see if I follow any

478
00:28:27.680 --> 00:28:30.440
different when the lottery and then everyone
said, is that a rock in your

479
00:28:30.440 --> 00:28:36.640
pocket? To see? It was
huge? Yeah, it was so it

480
00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:38.359
was like a little tiny cover shaped
stone. Every time I was like,

481
00:28:38.359 --> 00:28:41.160
hey, do you have like a
do you have cancer? Is that a

482
00:28:41.200 --> 00:28:42.759
growth? Like? What is that? No, it's just my rock.

483
00:28:42.839 --> 00:28:47.000
I'd wear a little necklace if it
gave me good juju? Yeah you and

484
00:28:47.319 --> 00:28:49.920
are you? And uh what's his
name from the Hills? Pat Pratt?

485
00:28:51.039 --> 00:28:56.559
Daddy Chris Brott? No, oh
yeah, yeah, I'm talking about Yeah,

486
00:28:56.960 --> 00:29:00.079
oh guy? Do they made him
and his wife made millions of all

487
00:29:00.119 --> 00:29:03.119
are selling rocks. Some of those
people really are underrated. Yeah, like

488
00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:07.720
that guy and then who is the
prince whatever in the Kardashians that married the

489
00:29:07.720 --> 00:29:12.759
oldest one. He's so funny.
Which guy the fucking only one that's not

490
00:29:12.880 --> 00:29:21.559
like brown? He's like the only
white guy that married uh Scott Scott disick

491
00:29:21.920 --> 00:29:25.839
Scott. That fool's funny. He's
low underrated. He's hilarious. Yeah,

492
00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:29.160
some of those people do. He's
hilarious. They deserve their success, That's

493
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:33.480
all I care about. Yeah,
he's probably into some stones Hollywood. Yeah,

494
00:29:33.559 --> 00:29:37.519
yeah, he was into uh white
Stone. Yeah, different type of

495
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:44.440
rock. Yeah. I don't I
think that those of us who who um,

496
00:29:44.519 --> 00:29:48.319
you know, don't do not partake
and they are not actually like swimming

497
00:29:48.319 --> 00:29:53.319
in money Scrooge McDuck style. Don't
get how popular cocaine still is. No,

498
00:29:53.400 --> 00:29:56.599
I think it's very popular. I
don't think you gotta be rich,

499
00:29:56.720 --> 00:30:00.440
especially here in sac In Sacramento,
it's like sadly and ver they're here just

500
00:30:00.480 --> 00:30:04.759
always has been though it's been in
the night scene here. Yeah, it's

501
00:30:04.920 --> 00:30:10.240
beginning of time. A lot of
cocaine and Sacramento. I don't know anybody

502
00:30:10.279 --> 00:30:15.759
that I go out with. It
wasn't didn't occasionally do cocaine or was on

503
00:30:15.880 --> 00:30:19.680
cocaine. Yeah, it's like nightlife
scene, so I don't go la Is,

504
00:30:19.720 --> 00:30:23.240
Like for sure, it's normal California. It's a California. It's so

505
00:30:23.279 --> 00:30:26.440
normal, so close to Mexico,
and like honestly, like it's like a

506
00:30:26.519 --> 00:30:30.799
fucking highways for like trafficking this shit. It's just everywhere. Yeah, down

507
00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:34.119
low. I've heard that, like
the even the political world healing Sacramento as

508
00:30:34.400 --> 00:30:37.920
is just steep cocaine. But like, why would you do that? I

509
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:41.440
mean you're built on cocaine. Yeah, you mean think you think about it,

510
00:30:41.480 --> 00:30:45.599
Like if that, if that is
out, I mean that can be

511
00:30:45.680 --> 00:30:48.440
a career destroyer for for some people. But if you're doing it with the

512
00:30:48.440 --> 00:30:51.319
guy who would out you, Yeah
yeah, if they're all doing it,

513
00:30:51.359 --> 00:30:52.759
I'm not gonna get out it.
Yeah. It's just so weird. That's

514
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.960
the brotherhood. It's funny. Yeah, that's a whole other thing. Yeah,

515
00:30:56.000 --> 00:30:59.599
you know, I'm cheating on my
wife and I know you do coke

516
00:30:59.640 --> 00:31:02.480
and we just shut up about each
other. It's crazy. It's just kind

517
00:31:02.480 --> 00:31:03.799
of built into the culture of it
all. It's like they were both running

518
00:31:03.839 --> 00:31:07.319
around the Capitol halls fucking you know, and like sliding around. I mean,

519
00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:11.480
alcoholism is like part they have bars
there, there's bars in there.

520
00:31:11.599 --> 00:31:15.920
You're like they're just every meeting is
over drank. Yeah that should not be

521
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:18.640
a thing. Like that's just like
the alcohol and then with that kind and

522
00:31:18.680 --> 00:31:22.319
then what they're doing with their golfing
and or drunk drunk yeah yeah, I

523
00:31:22.319 --> 00:31:25.240
don't know, yeah, just so
they can tolerate each other probably though.

524
00:31:25.680 --> 00:31:27.200
Yeah. Yeah, it's just kind
of like that's what it would take for

525
00:31:27.240 --> 00:31:32.039
me. But that's another story altogether. Yea out there's got a lot of

526
00:31:32.079 --> 00:31:34.839
it's also like men like their whole
ex frat boys. Yeah yeah, yeah,

527
00:31:34.920 --> 00:31:38.480
like that's that's what it is.
Like just kept all these people that

528
00:31:38.599 --> 00:31:44.319
in my life that I know that
work in that industry. We're all frat

529
00:31:44.359 --> 00:31:47.799
presidents or in frats, and it's
like they're just partying like they did in

530
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:51.880
college and it's just same culture,
same You're with the same people for sure.

531
00:31:52.359 --> 00:31:56.519
Yeah yeah, uh it kind of
close us out. This this New

532
00:31:56.599 --> 00:32:00.000
York Times article that reported on this
study of fit luinsers. I don't know

533
00:32:00.000 --> 00:32:04.079
how to I don't know if I
can embrace that term or not. But

534
00:32:05.119 --> 00:32:09.039
this clinical social worker and therapist in
New Yorker works. The athletes suggested that

535
00:32:09.079 --> 00:32:14.440
when you're looking at one of these
accounts, you're asking yourself, does this

536
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:20.440
fitness influencer make you feel good in
your own skin? That's a good question,

537
00:32:20.839 --> 00:32:23.160
And does it make me feel good
at all? We should talk to

538
00:32:23.160 --> 00:32:28.359
ourselves about all content we consume.
Does this make me feel good? And

539
00:32:28.480 --> 00:32:32.640
why am I watching this? Yeah? And I mean obviously I've never I've

540
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:37.799
never really gotten into making that kind
of content at all. I mean I

541
00:32:37.079 --> 00:32:45.000
started off making purely really like informational
training kind of content and never really got

542
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:49.799
into and even even the podcast over
the years, for the most part,

543
00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:57.839
we've not ever fallen into that trap. But that's also why we haven't exploded.

544
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:00.880
Yeah, that's true. I could
drop twenty sounds and I am going

545
00:33:00.920 --> 00:33:04.599
to do it and then just literally
be naked all the time and followers will

546
00:33:04.640 --> 00:33:09.119
come Yeah. Yeah, it's just
but it's like, but like, what's

547
00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:12.960
the longevity with that, right?
Because that only works for so long for

548
00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:15.880
somebody. Sure, Yeah, it's
like the people that aren't doing that like

549
00:33:15.000 --> 00:33:20.559
might not make like that big spike
of like you know, of a of

550
00:33:20.599 --> 00:33:22.319
an impact, But they'll just be
around longer. There's very few people that

551
00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:25.440
have done it as long as the
three of us all stud Yeah, it's

552
00:33:25.559 --> 00:33:30.519
it's yeah, like we're like,
there's so funny like the brand for like

553
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:34.200
for my personal experience, it's like
it's not even about one person. It's

554
00:33:34.240 --> 00:33:37.920
like literally like there's really not really
like a big face for the brand.

555
00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:40.039
It's like its own entity at this
point. And it's like, what you

556
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:43.480
guys are eleven years in, twelve
years in, this is ten years yeah,

557
00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:46.680
this year in August September, ten
years. Yeah, it's crazy,

558
00:33:46.720 --> 00:33:50.799
which is crazy, but it's like, yeah, I think that that's like

559
00:33:50.880 --> 00:33:52.720
it's yeah, like maybe we would
have been able to like maybe make have

560
00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:55.240
a couple of years where we like
really fucking set it up, but we've

561
00:33:55.240 --> 00:34:01.640
had We've also done we've had big
influencers, big athletes, and we still

562
00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:06.880
do. But it's like it's not
this like the company itself has his face

563
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:10.559
that's like moving the need all.
It's like because because the athletes we signed,

564
00:34:10.559 --> 00:34:13.239
going back, if you guys want
to go listen to era, which

565
00:34:13.239 --> 00:34:15.880
we talked about earlier, going to
the athletes, you would sign in a

566
00:34:15.960 --> 00:34:21.840
social media era they're they're it for
a year, correct, Jordan? Yeah,

567
00:34:21.840 --> 00:34:25.559
signing Jordan, he's it now.
He's still everyday conversation whether he's better

568
00:34:25.559 --> 00:34:29.400
than Lebron or not. Yeah,
let alone the legacy of his own playing,

569
00:34:29.480 --> 00:34:30.880
Let alone the legacy of the shoes, and the shoes are almost a

570
00:34:30.920 --> 00:34:35.880
separate entity now than Jordan, right, like he built them in the beginning,

571
00:34:35.920 --> 00:34:37.559
but now like there's kids that have
never seen him shoot a shot,

572
00:34:37.679 --> 00:34:42.320
they don't know what he does most
Yeah, right, so like he had

573
00:34:42.360 --> 00:34:45.280
to sign Timmy on Instagram with good
abs, he'll be it for six months.

574
00:34:45.519 --> 00:34:50.159
Yeah, because he didn't build a
foundation based on skill or value and

575
00:34:50.320 --> 00:34:52.280
whatever money he makes, and you
know that's going to be gone faster than

576
00:34:52.360 --> 00:34:55.519
anything. Yeah, because in mind
the Lamborghini to post next to the hot

577
00:34:55.599 --> 00:34:59.280
chick to hopefully get more followers.
Yeah, dude, it's just I just

578
00:34:59.320 --> 00:35:02.280
don't I look at this ship and
I see these TikTokers or even you know,

579
00:35:02.559 --> 00:35:06.760
like they're they're they're moving at this
crazy pace of like growth, and

580
00:35:06.760 --> 00:35:08.280
then it just you never hear from
them again. All of a sudden,

581
00:35:08.280 --> 00:35:10.320
one day, you just never hear
from them again. It's less than one

582
00:35:10.360 --> 00:35:14.599
percent that are crushing it. Everyone
sees the one percent that's crushing it,

583
00:35:14.840 --> 00:35:19.199
but it's point one percent that are
making life changing money that can do their

584
00:35:19.199 --> 00:35:22.440
shit. Everyone else is struggling with
eight roommates in an apartment. Yeah,

585
00:35:22.559 --> 00:35:25.159
that's not the life. And they
still have hundreds of thousands of followers.

586
00:35:25.320 --> 00:35:30.719
Yeah, for sure. But it's
like also like also this generation doesn't necessarily

587
00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:34.239
own anything. Yeah, they're just
like giving the money that they're making a

588
00:35:34.360 --> 00:35:38.280
way to somebody else, which is
strange, very like there's no financial guidance

589
00:35:38.320 --> 00:35:42.719
for these up and coming and there
wasn't for us either, but to me,

590
00:35:43.880 --> 00:35:45.400
but our parents did. Yeah,
for sure, our parents had knowledge

591
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:49.519
or some logic. Yeah, like
you now you have these younger kids that

592
00:35:49.599 --> 00:35:52.199
our parents are like in there,
you know, just like about some of

593
00:35:52.280 --> 00:35:54.599
them are even our age, you
know, that have these kids that are

594
00:35:54.639 --> 00:35:58.239
like maybe a little older. But
it's like it's possible, it's not the

595
00:35:58.360 --> 00:36:04.559
same, you know. It's interesting, it's weird. We did a short

596
00:36:04.559 --> 00:36:07.960
episode that I'm not sure when when
we're releasing, but we were talking about

597
00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:13.840
kind of about like follower culture or
culture and why people you know, follow

598
00:36:13.920 --> 00:36:16.840
people online. That then they patterned
their lives after because they just don't have

599
00:36:16.880 --> 00:36:21.639
any other blueprint or they didn't have
their parents or what's the story there.

600
00:36:22.559 --> 00:36:28.159
Yeah, aspirations. Yeah, I
want to be X because I can't deal

601
00:36:28.199 --> 00:36:31.639
with the idea of being just myself
I guess or where I you know,

602
00:36:31.719 --> 00:36:36.119
being a product of where I came
from or yeah or whatever. I just

603
00:36:36.159 --> 00:36:39.559
don't know how young kids navigate life
right now. I'm like I'm old now,

604
00:36:39.719 --> 00:36:43.320
right, so I'm like, I'm
out of touch with what's what's going

605
00:36:43.360 --> 00:36:45.119
on with like a fifteen year old's
brain. You're gonna find out soon.

606
00:36:45.159 --> 00:36:47.679
I'm gonna find out soon. It's
gonna be even like it's gonna be even

607
00:36:47.719 --> 00:36:52.239
more amplified. It's even crazier.
Think about like the strides were making technology

608
00:36:52.320 --> 00:36:54.599
right now, Like I think about
in fucking ten years, could you imagine

609
00:36:54.599 --> 00:36:58.760
and you'll see it from different lenses
with your kids, that's yeah, I

610
00:36:58.800 --> 00:37:00.760
just don't even know like where they're
going going to be, Like what are

611
00:37:00.800 --> 00:37:04.199
they going to be doing like online
or what is even online? At that

612
00:37:04.239 --> 00:37:07.280
point, you know, we're like
who knows like what that is? And

613
00:37:07.400 --> 00:37:10.000
that's going to be directly into your
brain. It's just like what everyone else.

614
00:37:10.159 --> 00:37:13.599
Yeah, what's what's what's what's next? You know what I mean,

615
00:37:13.639 --> 00:37:16.920
like microchips, glasses, glasses,
contacts. I bet that'll be first.

616
00:37:17.280 --> 00:37:21.719
Yeah, Like they already have the
technology they said to do contacts with,

617
00:37:21.760 --> 00:37:27.320
like a augmented reality contacts. It's
already report. It already exists minority reports

618
00:37:27.360 --> 00:37:30.000
in Yeah, Like we're not gonna
need to Like, we're just gonna be

619
00:37:30.000 --> 00:37:31.159
able to do a spreadsheet right here, we all have we all have our

620
00:37:31.159 --> 00:37:34.719
contacts, and we all link up. We have a spreadsheet right in front

621
00:37:34.719 --> 00:37:36.800
of us, and we're all just
like link looking at the same thing.

622
00:37:36.960 --> 00:37:38.559
Link me. All you do is
say it, you know, just like,

623
00:37:38.599 --> 00:37:40.400
well I'll be linked up. It's
the same thing, or watch the

624
00:37:40.440 --> 00:37:45.480
same screen withim. Jarvis. Jarvis
for sure, Jarvis is like kind of

625
00:37:45.599 --> 00:37:50.639
dated technology at this point. Yeah, you know what I mean. Jarvis

626
00:37:50.639 --> 00:37:53.079
is SERI. Yeah, have a
better voice. Yeah, he's a he's

627
00:37:53.320 --> 00:37:57.480
he's chat GBT with a voice.
Yeah, he really is. Yeah.

628
00:37:57.519 --> 00:38:00.519
Once they put chat GPT into Siri, which is of course coming. No,

629
00:38:00.599 --> 00:38:04.079
they could do that right now if
they want to. It already exists.

630
00:38:04.079 --> 00:38:07.199
We're just not using it on a
on a private label chat gbts.

631
00:38:07.199 --> 00:38:10.480
What's public? Yes, yeah,
what they got going on? Yeah who

632
00:38:10.679 --> 00:38:15.679
it knows? Yeah, No,
it's doing every It's it's well, the

633
00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:16.880
piece that we're getting is like they
say, it's like, oh, we

634
00:38:16.920 --> 00:38:21.039
had to get this out to the
people so they can't be taken advantage by

635
00:38:21.079 --> 00:38:22.760
it. Gave everybody access to this. It's like, well, that's bullshit.

636
00:38:22.840 --> 00:38:25.840
Yeah, it's complete bullshit. We're
fucked before we close this off.

637
00:38:25.920 --> 00:38:30.280
Actually, just since we're all people
who who deal with um, you know,

638
00:38:30.719 --> 00:38:37.400
sponsored athletes, people with with codes
whatever whatever, Like, where's our

639
00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:45.360
line about their content? Hmm?
Yeah. I most people that we sponsor

640
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:51.679
we have personal relationships with outside of
just like financial or whatever. We know

641
00:38:51.760 --> 00:38:55.599
these people, they're friends. Uh
So, I it's a little bit different

642
00:38:57.239 --> 00:38:59.880
for I think for me, I
don't know. I don't also just because

643
00:38:59.880 --> 00:39:02.000
I I don't I really talk to
you guys much about your like your current

644
00:39:02.079 --> 00:39:06.800
program where you guys are doing with
people. But I honestly don't care either

645
00:39:06.840 --> 00:39:09.639
though, because like I'm if I'm
reaching out to this person, like I'm

646
00:39:09.639 --> 00:39:14.559
not gonna like control how they put
out content, Like that's like do your

647
00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:16.800
thing, unless I obviously gonna do
my research make sure they're like a racist

648
00:39:16.880 --> 00:39:20.599
or a yeah you know, like
some crazy shit, like they have some

649
00:39:20.679 --> 00:39:23.280
weird pass like like I need to
know that kind of stuff. Like hopefully

650
00:39:23.280 --> 00:39:27.559
I've done my research enough to like
know like this person's not putting out harmful

651
00:39:27.639 --> 00:39:31.039
information to people representing my brand.
Like that would be a fucking disaster.

652
00:39:31.360 --> 00:39:36.280
Yeah, Like I don't want that
negative energy in my life or put it

653
00:39:36.280 --> 00:39:38.039
on to any people that see us
or someone wearing our stuff. And also

654
00:39:38.039 --> 00:39:40.920
you just can't avoid that because you're
gonna have bad people buy your stuff,

655
00:39:42.079 --> 00:39:44.320
right, But I'm not gonna like
go out of my way to sponsor somebody

656
00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:46.599
that does that. Yeah, but
I mean, um, I don't.

657
00:39:46.639 --> 00:39:51.960
It's just got to be like appropriate
as far as like not harmful, right,

658
00:39:52.119 --> 00:39:54.000
Like that's kind of the only like
rule I have. It's like that's

659
00:39:54.039 --> 00:39:58.639
how if you're a girl and you
like to kind of like um and you're

660
00:39:58.679 --> 00:40:00.079
proud of how you look, and
you like to like show some skin and

661
00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:04.440
you're like, you know, you
like to take pictures of like you like

662
00:40:05.119 --> 00:40:07.159
being you know you and like in
your mirror or whatever, and like you

663
00:40:07.199 --> 00:40:10.599
also post like good lifting content and
like you're an at like that's do your

664
00:40:10.599 --> 00:40:14.119
thing. Yeah, nothing with the
guys like whatever, Like that's how I

665
00:40:14.159 --> 00:40:16.159
see it. Like, if it's
not harmful and it's not illegal, yeah,

666
00:40:16.199 --> 00:40:20.079
and if it's not spreading, if
it's a net positive, whatever that

667
00:40:20.119 --> 00:40:22.679
may be. As long as it's
not a net negative, it's not really

668
00:40:22.719 --> 00:40:24.719
my business. What about only fans, Yeah, I don't think it's my

669
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:29.280
business. Yeah, I mean I
think we have multiple athletes that have only

670
00:40:29.320 --> 00:40:30.840
fans. Again, because I don't
don't think it's a net negative. Like,

671
00:40:30.960 --> 00:40:35.440
uh, who wants to purchase that
can purchase that. It's completely legal

672
00:40:35.480 --> 00:40:38.519
as far as I know. It's
also probably not the same audience. Uh.

673
00:40:38.519 --> 00:40:43.559
And and even a lot of these
because we're talking about girls mostly I

674
00:40:43.880 --> 00:40:46.599
we personally don't have them in on
our because of our guys. Maybe just

675
00:40:46.639 --> 00:40:51.880
aren't good enough looking. I don't
know. Yeah, they're they're not necessarily

676
00:40:51.960 --> 00:40:53.119
doing that side. But far as
far as like the you know, some

677
00:40:53.199 --> 00:40:57.400
of the girls that maybe are like
you know, they I'm sure a lot

678
00:40:57.440 --> 00:41:00.920
of their followers are are men.
Yeah that are just why watching their content

679
00:41:00.639 --> 00:41:04.639
for for that side of it,
Yeah, that aren't even necessarily into what

680
00:41:04.679 --> 00:41:07.800
they're doing. There's still a stigma
around o F and there's a stigma around

681
00:41:07.800 --> 00:41:10.039
strippers, and there's a stigma around
everything. I could give twos last Yeah,

682
00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:13.960
and of is more varied. You
go to strip club, you know

683
00:41:13.960 --> 00:41:16.880
what you're doing. Yeah, like
auto F there is probably like I don't

684
00:41:16.880 --> 00:41:21.519
know, but foot picks only.
There's everything from sex yet to cause play

685
00:41:21.679 --> 00:41:25.159
to lingerie to just cooking instruction.
And if it's if it's a huge range.

686
00:41:25.199 --> 00:41:30.320
Yeah, if it's legal and not
harmful, I'm not their dad.

687
00:41:30.639 --> 00:41:34.039
Yeah, I'm not exactly if it
if it locks up into some shit,

688
00:41:34.280 --> 00:41:38.360
you know, like you said,
whether racist, salty tickets anywhere. And

689
00:41:38.400 --> 00:41:42.800
I've done in the past, not
on those areas, but sponsored people.

690
00:41:42.880 --> 00:41:45.760
You know, I've run marketing for
multiple companies over the years, and if

691
00:41:45.800 --> 00:41:47.199
people got out of line, I
just check them, yo, you know,

692
00:41:47.239 --> 00:41:51.119
if they did some bully shit or
some negative shit, just negative,

693
00:41:51.239 --> 00:41:54.000
you know, flat out what I
deemed negative. I've called people or text

694
00:41:54.039 --> 00:41:55.960
them and said, hey, if
you're going to represent this brand, you're

695
00:41:55.960 --> 00:41:59.199
not going to do that any longer. And if you're going to continue to

696
00:41:59.199 --> 00:42:00.840
do that, then we won't present
this brand. I've done that on multiple

697
00:42:00.840 --> 00:42:05.599
occasions. But and that is up
for Yeah, debate what you think is

698
00:42:05.639 --> 00:42:08.199
negative. I might not think is
negative or whatever. But if you're if

699
00:42:08.199 --> 00:42:13.000
i'm if I'm in that seat,
then I'm making the call. Yeah,

700
00:42:13.119 --> 00:42:15.360
then then I'm yeah, yeah,
we're on the same page exactly. Yeah,

701
00:42:15.400 --> 00:42:17.159
it's like yeah, back to like
yeah, just not hurting people.

702
00:42:17.199 --> 00:42:20.679
It'll be a dick. Yeah,
it don't be like an absolute scomeback.

703
00:42:20.960 --> 00:42:22.719
And I don't care about what you
do personally, like as far as like

704
00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:27.280
self images or whatever, like that's
that's on you. That's your thing.

705
00:42:27.840 --> 00:42:30.440
We're not going to promote it on
our Yeah, so you're not gonna like

706
00:42:30.480 --> 00:42:31.960
take you're like, hey, go
check out this page or whatever. But

707
00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:35.960
if that's something you do and you're
also doing promotion, yeah, if you

708
00:42:36.079 --> 00:42:40.079
do yeah, um yeah maybe though. But that's there's a lot of people

709
00:42:40.119 --> 00:42:43.719
on that app, a lot of
people on that app, a lot of

710
00:42:43.719 --> 00:42:45.480
people making a lot of money on
that appy. What you hear I saw

711
00:42:45.559 --> 00:42:52.400
catch me outside girl bought a six
million dollar house in Miami. Cash Jesus

712
00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:58.599
ash, I'll whip it out.
Maybe I need the shoe spacers so that

713
00:42:58.719 --> 00:43:01.719
my cock can grow, so then
I can you need some zeros zero drop

714
00:43:01.760 --> 00:43:07.559
then I can hop over there.
Cash cash, Yeah, that's insane.

715
00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:09.559
It's a lot of mula. I
think she said that she did like she

716
00:43:09.639 --> 00:43:14.239
cleared like over a million in the
first hour when she did an only fans

717
00:43:14.280 --> 00:43:16.639
like launched it. Everything scaling up. You know, the the amount of

718
00:43:16.639 --> 00:43:20.360
money at the top of YouTube is
way more than it's ever been. It's

719
00:43:20.360 --> 00:43:22.280
obviously at the top, but the
top of Twitch is higher than it's ever

720
00:43:22.320 --> 00:43:24.880
been. The top of Instagrams the
higher it's ever been, right, I

721
00:43:24.920 --> 00:43:29.360
remember looking up the stats of the
most followed person on Instagram. It was

722
00:43:29.559 --> 00:43:34.880
Kim Kardashian in like twenty eleven,
was six million, six millions of medium

723
00:43:34.920 --> 00:43:37.480
sized celebrity though the rocks like three
hundred million, yeah yeah, No,

724
00:43:37.599 --> 00:43:43.360
six million now means like you're you're
an Internet You could potentially have just been

725
00:43:43.400 --> 00:43:45.920
on like the real world. Yeah
yeah, like potentially yeah, shit like

726
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:49.800
that. So it's just crazy.
So it's like a random guy like Dave

727
00:43:49.880 --> 00:43:53.880
Portnoy's got like five four point five
yeah, from New York or some random

728
00:43:54.119 --> 00:43:57.800
Nantucket or where the fuck is from. I can't, like, I know,

729
00:43:57.880 --> 00:44:01.679
barstools big, but like how big
is it? The influence must be

730
00:44:01.719 --> 00:44:06.000
insane. That's a really good question. What is their reach? I don't

731
00:44:06.000 --> 00:44:08.239
know what the answer that they have
so much. They kind of hit every

732
00:44:08.360 --> 00:44:14.400
avenue, every you know. But
they're also like their their sportsbook page,

733
00:44:14.400 --> 00:44:19.000
it's like the most shadow band page
ever because it gets zero engagement, which

734
00:44:19.000 --> 00:44:21.920
is crazy, but it's got this
It's got like millions of followings. But

735
00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:23.440
then they get like a hundred likes
on a post, you know what I

736
00:44:23.440 --> 00:44:27.800
mean, It's like, clearly that's
being shadow band, right, yeah,

737
00:44:27.880 --> 00:44:30.719
yeah, I don't know. That's
all. Yeah, and gambling, Like

738
00:44:30.719 --> 00:44:34.559
I understand why it might be,
but all that's all. This is just

739
00:44:34.559 --> 00:44:38.199
playing with fire until a company or
industry doesn't like you or what you're doing.

740
00:44:39.159 --> 00:44:44.360
Rocketreach dot coo, which is I
