Who in the fitness world would we like to meet? | One good question

WEBVTT

1
00:00:08.279 --> 00:00:11.599
It's Friday. It's a Friday episode. We're recording this episode on Friday,

2
00:00:12.240 --> 00:00:15.119
the day that's going to be released, because that's what our schedule has been

3
00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:18.480
like lately. Ladies and gentlemen,
welcome to one good question. If you

4
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:22.000
want to get involved, go to
a good company discord dot com. That

5
00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:26.199
is our community where you get exclusives, early looks at all our clothes and

6
00:00:26.280 --> 00:00:30.760
a like minded community. And we
also gather and garnish questions from y'all.

7
00:00:31.839 --> 00:00:35.119
And we're tapping a discord now and
Jim has some questions. Okay, here's

8
00:00:35.159 --> 00:00:39.200
my question. This is from Keith
Honeycutt, who asks a lot of questions

9
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:47.240
and sometimes even gets answers. The
question is who in the industry have we

10
00:00:47.719 --> 00:00:52.240
not met that we would like to
meet? There are for those that don't

11
00:00:52.240 --> 00:00:55.479
know, Jim and I have been
you know from some newer listeners New Wish.

12
00:00:55.600 --> 00:00:59.759
We've been doing our own podcast for
five years now. We've been podcasting

13
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:03.600
together there in some form for almost
a decade, and a lot of our

14
00:01:03.640 --> 00:01:07.239
early episodes here and older episodes together
were always interview based or group based,

15
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:12.000
so we've rubbed elbows with many,
many many folks in the industry. There

16
00:01:12.079 --> 00:01:18.400
is a newer generation that I've seen
on the online, and not that I'm

17
00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:21.239
gonna go, you know that I'm
excited to me, but it would be

18
00:01:21.239 --> 00:01:23.599
cool to rub elbows with some of
these people. And I made good friends

19
00:01:23.599 --> 00:01:26.040
with some of them, a lot
of you know, JPG Coaching is a

20
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.000
really good dude and a close friend
of mine. Now I'm sure there's many

21
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:30.719
of them that would annoy the fuck
out, I mean, and I don't

22
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:34.680
want to be friends with, but
there's probably some cool people just because there

23
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:38.079
is a whole new generation. The
easy answer for me, or like the

24
00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:44.359
what's it called low hanging fruit answer, Harvey Schwarzenegger, right, just because

25
00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:47.799
like he is the guy, he
made the fitness industry in so many ways,

26
00:01:49.239 --> 00:01:53.400
and I don't think I've ever sat
down with the guy. So I'm

27
00:01:53.439 --> 00:01:57.120
not excited to meet anyone, if
you want the honest truth, I just

28
00:01:57.159 --> 00:01:59.359
don't care enough. I want to
meet people that are genuine. I want

29
00:01:59.359 --> 00:02:00.599
to meet people that I learned from. I want to meet people that do

30
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:06.480
what I do, but within fitness. Just because that guy has had such

31
00:02:06.519 --> 00:02:10.159
an impact on so many areas of
business and fitness, I'm sure I could

32
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:15.080
learn something from him, and his
accident would probably funny at the very least.

33
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:17.879
You know, he's gonna say something
corny because he pretty much always does

34
00:02:19.719 --> 00:02:22.879
every movie every you know. Yeah, and catching a workout with them or

35
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:24.879
something would be cool. I mean, that's kind of like how I got

36
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:28.639
to know a lot of people's we'd
podcast and we would eat and it would

37
00:02:28.639 --> 00:02:30.240
catch a workout and you just kind
of pick each other's brains. I mean,

38
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:35.280
that's how my friendships formed with guys
like Omar and bar Kawan and JP

39
00:02:35.479 --> 00:02:38.479
even. So stuff like that would
be really cool. But there's no one

40
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:43.879
that like sticks out in my brain. But my thing is that, like,

41
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:51.000
of the people who are sort of
established or established in the industry who

42
00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.800
I think are genuine, I think
we've met all of them so far,

43
00:02:53.919 --> 00:02:57.560
unless they were, like you say, people who are coming up, Yeah,

44
00:02:58.000 --> 00:03:00.400
because there is a whole new gen. Yeah, there's some people that

45
00:03:00.479 --> 00:03:05.319
I know pretty well that I wish
I just hung out with more because they're

46
00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:07.800
not around correct, you know,
like Max Tuning's a homie, Christian Guzman.

47
00:03:08.199 --> 00:03:12.159
I've known those guys for also like
eighty I've never met either one of

48
00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:15.159
those guys, so they're really cool, and you know, we're just busy,

49
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:19.039
and they live thousands of miles away, so like, yeah, it

50
00:03:19.039 --> 00:03:21.800
would be cool to like rub elbows
with them more on the daily, or

51
00:03:21.800 --> 00:03:24.520
even Russ Russ's you know, Russell
Or He's had tons of success and I've

52
00:03:24.560 --> 00:03:28.599
known him since he started the game, so you know, to be able

53
00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:30.719
to hang out with them more,
sure, that would be cool if we

54
00:03:30.759 --> 00:03:35.039
all lived in the same city.
That's one reason me and Bart obviously just

55
00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:38.639
kept our friendship easier because we're a
forty five minute flight versus a three hour

56
00:03:38.680 --> 00:03:43.479
flight or whatever. But yeah,
I'm kind of same as you. I

57
00:03:43.479 --> 00:03:46.240
think we've met a lot of cool
people, we've met a lot of shitters,

58
00:03:46.000 --> 00:03:50.400
and there's probably a variation of both. I do think the industry has

59
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.520
gotten younger, which is interesting,
Yeah, because I felt significantly Yeah,

60
00:03:53.560 --> 00:03:55.120
because I felt so young when I
got into it. And I got into

61
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:58.560
it, I mean, I started
my gym when I was twenty. But

62
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:01.680
you know, online industry, your
big business industry, supplements, et cetera,

63
00:04:01.879 --> 00:04:04.360
got into it with you when I
was twenty two, twenty three,

64
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:09.120
twenty four, um. But now
the average age is probably twenty three twenty

65
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:14.319
four five. Yeah, thanks to
TikTok and and media being such an easy

66
00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:17.519
outlet for marketing and business. Um. I guess some of the new ones

67
00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:20.879
lean beef Patty pat Patricia was really
really cool. We hung with her a

68
00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:25.839
little bit at the Arnold. Um. Yeah, I mean there's some there's

69
00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:29.680
some great people in the newer generation. Um, but the masses, you

70
00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:34.439
know, there's so many. I'm
there's bound to be shitters um our our

71
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:40.639
friend from from Halifax that we had
on the show, Um, oh,

72
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:44.120
Evan Evan. Yeah, Evan's school
very cool. Um. Yeah, he's

73
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:46.959
that young gen. If everybody was
like that, I would want to meet

74
00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:48.680
more of them. Yeah, it's
just unlikely. Yeah, it seems unlikely

75
00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:53.199
because the percentage is not not great. Yeah yeah, I agree, not

76
00:04:53.279 --> 00:04:55.720
great. And you can just tell
about some people's content. Sure, some

77
00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:58.639
people's content is just content, not
who they are. But a lot of

78
00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:00.839
times it's hard to fully put on
a face and yeah, people are just

79
00:05:01.120 --> 00:05:03.800
stupid, annoying, or you can
tell they're slimy. I can tell you're

80
00:05:03.800 --> 00:05:08.199
slimming through your content. You're likely
gonna be slimmy in person. Yeah,

81
00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:12.000
that's for sure. And that's unfortunate
because I don't think you have to be

82
00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:15.279
slimy to succeed. It's just easier, you know, Yeah, definitely is

83
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:18.560
easier. Yeah, it's definitely a
quicker route. Yeah, for sure.

84
00:05:18.319 --> 00:05:24.480
There are people that, um we
associated within the past that I wouldn't mind

85
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:29.639
meeting up with again. You know, maybe maybe Dave Tate. Yeah,

86
00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:31.480
like I've never met Dave Tate,
and so like, he's one of the

87
00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:35.800
legends that I haven't met. I
guess because I felt like I met so

88
00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:39.879
many legends. I didn't get a
chance to meet Louis simmons um. But

89
00:05:39.959 --> 00:05:44.439
yeah, he's one of the few
to talk shit on the newer generation even

90
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:46.480
more. I think a lot of
them don't like respect tradition or respect history.

91
00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:51.279
When I grew up just liking that. You know, my favorite basketball

92
00:05:51.279 --> 00:05:55.319
players Magic Johnson, he retired in
ninety one. I was two years old,

93
00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:57.199
and yeah, like I grew up
in his generation. He's just my

94
00:05:57.199 --> 00:06:00.720
favorite player of all time. And
Larry Bird and Bill Russ and I watched

95
00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:02.120
all these guys and the same with
lifting as soon as I got into it,

96
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:05.439
you know. Yeah, west Side
was a thing in eight nine,

97
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:10.480
twenty ten, but they weren't that
wasn't peak west Side, and I grew

98
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.639
up reading west Side even before super
training. You know, I tried to

99
00:06:13.720 --> 00:06:16.240
learn from the past. And Dave
Tate's obviously one of those figures that's that's

100
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:20.199
really dope into the Nichia powerlifting and
done something cool. So I guess i'd

101
00:06:20.240 --> 00:06:24.639
throw his name in there for me, just because I don't know if you

102
00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:26.720
want to call it a bucket list
or you know, just like the the

103
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:31.639
I don't mean the directory. There's
a term no one uses, the directory

104
00:06:31.680 --> 00:06:34.319
of powerlifting. Yeah, that I
that I would, you know, kind

105
00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:39.959
of put in my resume. Yeah. I lucky enough to have hung out

106
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:46.319
with some with Louis Um, some
with Dave Tate, UM, some of

107
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:48.879
that that whole generation. Some of
the newer strong man maybe would be cool.

108
00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:51.199
Yeah, you know, yeah,
I don't know. The Stoltman brothers

109
00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:54.560
seemed funny, and some of these
guys seem to have a good time,

110
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:59.199
or Trey Trey Mitchell, you know, the American guy. They just seemed

111
00:06:59.279 --> 00:07:01.079
like a cooler new generation and maybe
they suck maybe to cool. I don't

112
00:07:01.079 --> 00:07:02.959
know, but it'd be cool.
It w't meet them. World run as

113
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:06.160
Man is happening right now. Yeah, I've been trying to read some updates.

114
00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:10.079
But the whole television thing really does
kind of ruin that sport in my

115
00:07:10.120 --> 00:07:12.959
opinion, it does. If you
can't like broadcast it live, it's hard

116
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:15.040
to keep it a secret. And
then what Yeah if the secret spoiled,

117
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:17.839
why do I want to watch it
in December? Right? Like? Just

118
00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:25.240
film it in November and film it
yeah yeah, and lateral rip. Yeah,

119
00:07:25.279 --> 00:07:28.439
if they if they treated it more
like a live production as opposed to

120
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:31.079
the way they they put it together, it would probably be faster. Let's

121
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:34.959
do a live production and then let's
do a behind the scenes documentary yearly or

122
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:38.639
something. Yeah, you know that
that goes into the emotion and the injuries

123
00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:42.680
and the backstory. But then do
the live one more like a ESPN live

124
00:07:42.680 --> 00:07:45.279
one, and it's proven it's been
done. CrossFit does a pretty good live.

125
00:07:46.639 --> 00:07:49.399
The Rogue Invitational with CrossFit and Strongman
is pretty good live. Yeah,

126
00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:51.439
So yeah, do that. And
then if you want to dive into like

127
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:55.959
one guy or three guys stories,
Brian would obviously be a good one because

128
00:07:55.959 --> 00:07:59.279
I think it's he already said he's
going to retire. Dive into that story

129
00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:05.800
this year and someone else's next year. Um, feel h Felix. What

130
00:08:05.879 --> 00:08:07.000
can I think of the name right
now? Mark Felix. Mark Felix is

131
00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:11.160
retiring, So yeah, you follow
Mark and you follow Brian this year or

132
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:13.040
something like that. Thora was coming
back but he tore his pack. I

133
00:08:13.079 --> 00:08:16.160
don't know if you know he's coming
back to powerlifting, and then I think

134
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:18.560
he's gonna do strong next year.
The year okay, but he did rip

135
00:08:18.600 --> 00:08:24.199
his pack. I watched that live. I just thought the picture it's pretty

136
00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:28.439
gruesome. Yeah, live wasn't as
gruesome, just because you know sometimes that

137
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:31.399
the shirt doesn't like fit right,
you don't like see it. Oh,

138
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:33.440
you know what I mean. So
it didn't look as crazy. But yeah,

139
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:37.879
the teary didn't look good proper.
All the all the thoughts with that

140
00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.159
guy to come back strong, because
I know he was fired up to compete.

141
00:08:41.519 --> 00:08:45.759
I'm sure you will. Um.
I should also mention Wendler. I've

142
00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:50.000
hung out with Wendler more times than
any of the other ones, and um,

143
00:08:50.039 --> 00:08:52.279
he's always been super cool to me. Yeah. I dinner with him

144
00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:56.039
once. Yeah, he was on
my directory. Do you know what directory

145
00:08:56.120 --> 00:09:01.519
is? That's crazy? Didn't he
know what director. A whole generation gap

146
00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:03.799
papping right here. It's like a
fisher opening in the floor. Directory's like

147
00:09:03.799 --> 00:09:09.000
like like where you hold like addresses
and names and phone numbers. Like every

148
00:09:09.080 --> 00:09:11.679
year in high school, they sent
out a school directory at my school for

149
00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:16.559
such a small community to have every
family's name number, most of their addresses,

150
00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:20.639

00:09:33.879 --> 00:09:35.480
Yeah. You'd sometimes make one at
home, but like if you worked at

156
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:39.240
an office sometimes they would have one
or a club or Yeah, my school

157
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.320
was small enough, so we had
our own. Do you remember this is

158
00:09:43.320 --> 00:09:48.000
a real throat back. You remember
the things that used to be Um they

159
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:52.159
were spring loaded. Okay, they
had a lid and you moved the dial

160

to the letter of the last name
of the person that you wanted to looked

161
00:09:58.000 --> 00:10:00.759
up, and you hit that button
and then it popped up. That's fancy,

162
00:10:00.799 --> 00:10:03.840
Like, I don't think we had
that. You have that just regular

163
00:10:03.039 --> 00:10:07.080
like yeah, ring Binder type esque. Yeah. Yeah, well, speaking

164
00:10:07.080 --> 00:10:11.159
of people who were in in our
contact lists. And I just caught up

165
00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:13.679
with If you are you caught up
with the Mandalorian yet, I'm not.

166
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:16.360
I'm not kind of with shit.
I still haven't watch the Last of Us.

167
00:10:16.600 --> 00:10:18.840
I've been kind of for the first
time we talk about last episod.

168
00:10:18.840 --> 00:10:22.000
I've been kind of caught up in
basketball, probably for the first time in

169
00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:24.039
a decade. Oh really Yeah,
so I've just been diving in the playoffs

170
00:10:24.080 --> 00:10:28.600
a little bit. Um, having
an all my second monitor. Yeah,

171
00:10:28.600 --> 00:10:33.679
that's about all I'm watching, and
I'm really watching. Well spoiler alert,

172
00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:37.279
Um, someone we know who actually
we had dinner with Wendler and this person,

173
00:10:37.440 --> 00:10:43.639
Tate U is a pretty significant character. And he goes down in Mandalorian.

174
00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:46.879
Yeah, because he's in the first
season, right, but he dies

175
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:48.840
in this season. Yes, I'm
sorry, No, I thought he died

176
00:10:48.919 --> 00:10:52.320
even in the first round. It
was more of a background since you can't

177
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.559
see his face, it's just his
voice. Yeah. Oh, in this

178
00:10:54.639 --> 00:10:58.039
new one, I think he's I
think he's it's his body, probably because

179
00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:00.960
he's just done stuff too. Yeah, and he's tall, yeah UFC fighter.

180
00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:03.519
Yeah, I don't think that.
I don't think Pedro Pascalis inside the

181
00:11:05.679 --> 00:11:09.960
Mandalorian suit anymore. I don't think
he has been since maybe the first season.

182
00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:13.399
I was very confused by this season. I don't really know what the

183
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:16.720
hell happened. So people say it's
really good, though, I mean,

184
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:20.559
yeah, it's not bad. Yeah, I'm more into a so called maybe

185
00:11:20.519 --> 00:11:22.840
all wait for that. I don't
know why I'm in a Mandalorian, but

186
00:11:22.840 --> 00:11:26.240
