Thanks for having me.

Absolutely.
Very nice to meet you man.

15
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:27,000
So Brian and I go way back, we
go way like way back.

16
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,720
Like I was watching the
Diamondbacks and, and the night

17
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,520
before there's a monsoon and my
grill went into the pool.

18
00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:38,280
So we in the morning got up and
pulled everything out and and

19
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,320
when I pulled the grill mat up
the entire bottom of the pool

20
00:01:41,320 --> 00:01:45,640
had the had the 2 grill grates
and it rusted the bond rappool.

21
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,280
So the following night legit I'm
at home watching the

22
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:52,000
Diamondbacks play and a we fix
lucky pools commercial comes on.

23
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,480
So I call the number oh this is
awesome.

24
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,720
And he answers the phone and so
I start talking about what it my

25
00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,120
thing is and then somehow he
brings up he's the one.

26
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,360
I'm like, you're the owner,
you're answering your own phone.

27
00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,600
I remember doing that order and
guitar lessons out of the back

28
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,880
of a magazine one year and the
yeah, the dude and I was living

29
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,560
in Phoenix and the dude that was
in the ad answered the phone.

30
00:02:12,560 --> 00:02:14,280
I thought the same thing.
That's an awesome story.

31
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:16,000
Man, and we've been friends ever
since.

32
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,080
Because that's.
I used to watch the I used to

33
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,400
watch the games because I knew
what ending the rotation was

34
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,000
coming up behind the home plate.
And it was always exciting to

35
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:24,560
see how many phone calls would
come in.

36
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:27,680
So right, we would sit there and
have like a pizza party during

37
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,920
the games at the office.
I just happened to field that

38
00:02:29,920 --> 00:02:30,760
call.
It was kind of cool.

39
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,280
It was really cool because here
we are like that's got to be

40
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:37,080
fucked.
Dude did 2. 1520 years ago.

41
00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,320
Yeah, 20 years ago.
And did you?

42
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:44,280
Ever take a tally like of what
the difference was or like a

43
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:47,840
grand total of you know what the
most calls was during that

44
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,840
segment?
We had a, we had 1/2 inning, we

45
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,400
took 230 calls.
We used to get drunk

46
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,360
fraternities that would call us,
people would call us.

47
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,240
You got to remember 2005, not
everybody had a cell phone.

48
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,000
So it was still pretty new, but
people would call us and be

49
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,440
like, and, and then they would
say the most random stuff.

50
00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:07,160
But we got in some pretty cool
conversations with with people

51
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,200
and across the country that
which was kind of fun.

52
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:13,720
That's so awesome.
Yeah, what's even cooler is the

53
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,360
Diamondbacks came in 2001,
right?

54
00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,880
Yeah, it was an inaugural No
1999. 99 OK.

55
00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:22,320
They won in 2001.
That's what it was that was a

56
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:24,200
partial.
Season ticket holder then in our

57
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:26,200
inaugural season.
Right, because that's when Jake

58
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,200
was born.
So, but the really neat thing

59
00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,680
that most people probably don't
realize, I mean, some do, but

60
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:32,440
not so much anymore because
Brian doesn't hammer on the

61
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,080
head.
Brian actually renovated bank on

62
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,720
ballpark swimming pool.
I actually ripped out the old

63
00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,720
one and put a new one in.
So, so tell tell those that are

64
00:03:42,720 --> 00:03:44,840
watching this live on YouTube
right now, and because we're

65
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,320
going to use this later, tell us
how that all happened because

66
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,320
I've heard this story before and
it's a really cool story.

67
00:03:49,320 --> 00:03:51,800
So when you're watching the game
and you're looking at that pool,

68
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,160
we're talking to the guy that
did it, that is, yes.

69
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:56,440
There's been some work done
since then.

70
00:03:56,440 --> 00:04:02,040
Was 20 years ago literally 2000?
January 2004, I'm sitting at the

71
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:06,360
Monster Truck Jam and I was
trying to figure out how do I

72
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,200
really get my company out there.
It was a fairly new business and

73
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,200
I wanted to get out there.
And I looked out at the pool and

74
00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:12,520
I'm like, I think I'm going to
renovate this pool.

75
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:15,080
And it was only, you know, five
years old at the time.

76
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:20,040
So I decided to go ahead and put
on my best, my best pitch.

77
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:21,839
And I went down to the
Diamondback Stadium and I tried

78
00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,560
to get a meeting with someone
and I didn't get a meeting.

79
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,760
So for three months, I would
show up every day and I would

80
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,040
sit in the lobby for three to
four hours trying to get a

81
00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:33,720
meeting with someone.
And it was three months later.

82
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,200
And this we go through a number
of things that happened.

83
00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:40,040
I think the, the receptionist
there, I can't remember her

84
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,640
name, but I used to bring her
coffee, I would bring her

85
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:43,560
flowers, I brought her
Valentine's Day gifts.

86
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,280
Nothing worked, right?
And then one day I'm sitting

87
00:04:46,280 --> 00:04:48,360
there and these guys come in
really nice in their suits and

88
00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:49,920
they're like, we're here for our
marketing meeting.

89
00:04:50,240 --> 00:04:52,440
Next thing I know there's five
guys down there and I'm like,

90
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,160
Hey, can I get a, a marketing
meeting?

91
00:04:55,480 --> 00:04:56,800
And she's like, I thought you'd
never ask.

92
00:04:56,840 --> 00:04:59,360
And so that was my, my ticket
up.

93
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:02,840
And so I showed for my meeting.
We get in the elevator, I

94
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:04,440
stopped and do a whole elevator
pitch.

95
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,360
The guy is just kind of like,
whoa, you know, just kind of

96
00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,320
like it's, I don't know where
this is going to go, but he took

97
00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,880
me upstairs and the rest is
history.

98
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:16,600
But I have to tell you the, the,
the, the main part of that

99
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,160
story.
So I'm, I'm a big Jerry

100
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:20,800
Colangelo fan.
I think without dirty Arizona

101
00:05:20,800 --> 00:05:24,800
would have no sports.
And so we I get a call one day

102
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:28,040
from from Tim Emery, who is my,
my guy.

103
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:30,600
And he tells me he's like, hey,
we're having a meeting.

104
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,440
I used to wear black T-shirts,
basically cargo shorts and flip

105
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,160
flops because I was out in the
job sites all the time.

106
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:37,000
He's like, I need you to come
down.

107
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,280
We're having a meeting.
And I'm like, OK, I don't think

108
00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:40,880
anything of it.
I show up at the meeting an hour

109
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:43,440
later.
I walk in wearing black T-shirt,

110
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,880
cargo shorts and my flip flops.
I love it.

111
00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:47,600
And I open up the door and he's
like, you're a little

112
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:49,680
underdressed.
And it's Jerry Colangelo and all

113
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:51,400
the owners of the Diamondbacks
into the table.

114
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,360
And I can tell you immediately
just started sweating like I was

115
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:56,040
going to pass out right there on
the floor.

116
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,520
Now now just so people
understand though, your black

117
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:01,720
polo shirts had your We Fixed
Ugly Pools logo.

118
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,280
It wasn't even a polo shirt,
Chris.

119
00:06:03,280 --> 00:06:06,640
It was a really shirt we fixed
it was it was generation one of

120
00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:09,360
our of our T-shirts.
So it was the rest of the logo.

121
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:12,800
Wow, that's crazy.
That makes that makes the story

122
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,720
even better though.
Yeah, so I, I get, I get, I get

123
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,760
a chance to, to, to very
informally pitch them.

124
00:06:20,280 --> 00:06:22,320
I get told pretty much they're
not going to go anywhere.

125
00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,880
And then next thing I know,
we're we're getting the

126
00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:27,040
opportunity to to do something
on a grand scale.

127
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:30,320
And there's only a couple pools
that have that notoriety or

128
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,280
that, you know, where people
actually recognize it.

129
00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,320
And to be able to be a part of
that history was pretty awesome.

130
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,760
How long was it between the time
that you didn't think it was

131
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:41,880
going to happen and they changed
their mind?

132
00:06:42,200 --> 00:06:44,400
Months.
Like not even very many months.

133
00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,040
It happened very quickly.
So my whole thing was is, is the

134
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,680
Diamondbacks had a great season,
2001, their inaugural season,

135
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:52,840
99, 2001, they won the World
Series.

136
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:55,840
By 2004, they were struggling
for attendance.

137
00:06:55,840 --> 00:06:57,320
They were just not having great
season.

138
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,960
So we were giving them some
opportunity and I came in with

139
00:06:59,960 --> 00:07:02,760
this idea that, hey, you know,
let's bring a new life to it.

140
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,360
The old pool was put in by
Paddock Pools and it was a

141
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,200
typical commercial pool, blue
tile plaster finish.

142
00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,440
And I'm like, let's make it more
renditious of outdoor living.

143
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,240
So I put in a BBQ.
I did stone decking, I did a lot

144
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:17,280
of stacks stone.
I actually.

145
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,600
Awesome man, I love.
It the pool is actually not

146
00:07:19,600 --> 00:07:23,640
built as as a pool, it's
actually 2 spas because I had to

147
00:07:23,640 --> 00:07:26,440
circumvent some of the the the
codes.

148
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,440
And with a pool you have to have
100% decking.

149
00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:31,400
With a SPA you only have to have
30% decking.

150
00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:33,840
So I actually wanted to elevate
the pool so when you sit on the

151
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:36,400
pool, you'd be seeing out over
the fence instead of being on

152
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,240
the bottom at the at the level
of the ground and then staring

153
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,320
at the fence.
That's cool.

154
00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:43,160
So you use the code to your
advantage.

155
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,960
Well, I learned a lot of lessons
during that.

156
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,720
Yes, Sir.
That's awesome.

157
00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,680
Yeah, but yeah.
And he also, by the way, has the

158
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,960
world record for building an in
ground swimming pool as well.

159
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,560
Yes, that's awesome too, and I
want to hear about that.

160
00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,760
But I can't tell you enough that
I did not know obviously, that

161
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:03,320
you did that.
And I've seen it 100 times

162
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,440
watching Diamondbacks games.
It is very impressive so.

163
00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:10,640
Thank you.
That was so a couple years later

164
00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,600
I had this, we've, we've, we
managed to figure out how to

165
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:18,600
build that, that pool and we
were told by the, the county

166
00:08:18,600 --> 00:08:20,840
that we built the pool.
The paddock took like 9 months

167
00:08:20,840 --> 00:08:23,360
to build the dime backs pool.
The first one I built it in 16

168
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,160
days my, my time.
So I, I was worked on an

169
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,000
amplified timeline.
So a couple years later I was

170
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:33,280
sitting there thinking, I know
Pat Shasta had the, the world

171
00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,679
record for building a pool in
7-7 hours and 50 something

172
00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,520
minutes or something like that,
or 7 hours or 14 minutes.

173
00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:42,000
And it had been there since
1970s.

174
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:46,200
So we had I put together an idea
and in two weeks decided I

175
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,360
figured out how to make it
happen on 7th St. and Thomas

176
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:51,080
would put together a pool in
five hours, 56 minutes and 7

177
00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,400
seconds.
That included not just the pool,

178
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,760
but the landscaping, the play
area, the fence, the solar

179
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:59,800
covers, the solar heating, the
lighting, the water features.

180
00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:01,200
I mean, it was a pretty awesome
experience.

181
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,640
So this day.
Guys, did that take?

182
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,040
What's that?
How many guys did that take?

183
00:09:05,680 --> 00:09:11,320
I had 189 on site that included
multiple inspectors that I had

184
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:14,200
to pay City of Phoenix.
We had police officers on site

185
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,240
for traffic and and time
control.

186
00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:18,240
The fire department actually
filled the pool.

187
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,440
And then we had all of our crews
that were just cycling in and

188
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,000
out.
I mean, it was just, it was, it

189
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,960
was pretty awesome feat.
Yeah.

190
00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,440
I, I was I, I was blessed enough
to be standing there watching

191
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:29,640
it.
Oh, you saw the thing live.

192
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:31,760
Yeah, I was there.
Yeah, that's awesome.

193
00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,920
At the at the time, because the
real estate market had changed,

194
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,040
we turned and we kind of went
from a downward slope.

195
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,600
OK, So then because Brian and I,
Brian knew first hand about my

196
00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,760
marketing and how I stayed in
contact with clients and things

197
00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,800
like that because once I sold
him his house, he started

198
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:46,120
getting all my stuff.
Sure.

199
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,040
So he and I are born of the same
cloth as far as marketing in

200
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:53,480
your face, like non-stop, just,
you know, top of mind, top of

201
00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,640
mind.
So we had that mutual respect.

202
00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:58,480
So when the market turned, I'm
like, well, shit, you know, real

203
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:00,320
estate's blah, blah, blah.
So I reached out to him.

204
00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,040
I'm like, hey, now, how about I
come work for you and I show

205
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:05,840
your your sales guys how to get
repeat and referral business.

206
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,680
So it was kind of just something
that that we both agreed would

207
00:10:08,680 --> 00:10:13,120
would work and it was cool.
So when he was doing that, the

208
00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:16,360
world record pool at the time I
was working when his in his what

209
00:10:16,360 --> 00:10:18,040
is what HR department, I guess
you'd call it.

210
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:19,640
Yep.
Well, you're doing a lot of the

211
00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,280
the, the the customer retention
training.

212
00:10:22,280 --> 00:10:24,440
Yes, yes.
So I was helping with that,

213
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:27,400
helping to show and his, his C
or his contact management system

214
00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,520
was insane.
And just, I mean, it was off the

215
00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:32,640
charts because that's Brian.
Brian does everything off the

216
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:33,840
charts.
There's nothing little with

217
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:34,920
Brian.
It's like we're going to do it,

218
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,840
we're going to do it.
But it was a great follow up.

219
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,240
I appreciate.
So right.

220
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:41,360
But it was a, it was a great
follow up system that he has and

221
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,120
it, it enabled me to help his,
his sales guys understand how

222
00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:47,880
to, how to get that referral and
repeat business by just, you

223
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:51,040
know, touches.
And I don't think texting was

224
00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:53,240
big back then.
What didn't exist?

225
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:55,440
No.
E-mail. e-mail was just getting

226
00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,640
to be big, but we were still
doing a lot of postcards.

227
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,400
We're doing a lot of thank you
cards, handwritten thank you

228
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,640
cards.
That was our big thing back

229
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,840
then.
Yeah, I remember 1 Christmas, he

230
00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,200
sent little gift, little gift
baskets to all the clients we

231
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:08,960
all had.
We all all the employees met at

232
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:13,040
his house in Mesa and we we had
each had our set of stuff and we

233
00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,640
had to go to the different past
clients and drop off their.

234
00:11:15,640 --> 00:11:21,680
Little 750 gift baskets.
Yeah, Brian doesn't mess around,

235
00:11:21,680 --> 00:11:22,680
man.
That's awesome, man.

236
00:11:22,680 --> 00:11:24,440
Yeah, but that's why he's been
in business.

237
00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,280
I mean, what, 20 years?
20 plus years.

238
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,480
Almost 25 years now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

239
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,240
He was actually part of my radio
show and on on iheart, he was a

240
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,160
sponsor.
So every, every show we had a

241
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,680
segment that was brought to you
by We Fix Ugly Poles, which is

242
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:38,600
where I came up with that thing.
We were just sitting in one day

243
00:11:38,600 --> 00:11:41,800
and they stood I'm like from
installation innovation and back

244
00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:43,560
of complete back.
Our creation week looks ugly,

245
00:11:43,560 --> 00:11:45,200
pulls this little and he's like
dude.

246
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,720
But you hit the nail on the head
when you said top of mind, you

247
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,280
know you keep in touch with your
clients like that.

248
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:54,280
I was calling my go to people,
right?

249
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,800
I got, I have a go to mechanic.
I have a go to person that'll

250
00:11:57,800 --> 00:12:00,760
work on plumbing or, you know,
my roof or right.

251
00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,800
It's not just anybody.
It has to be that guy because

252
00:12:03,800 --> 00:12:05,760
that guy pays attention to
detail, right?

253
00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:08,400
I noticed things like that
because I became a good guitar

254
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,400
player.
When you master one craft, you

255
00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:16,160
see that same attention to
detail in every other craft,

256
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:18,520
right?
And you guys both possess that

257
00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,760
in that you keep in touch with
the people that did business

258
00:12:21,760 --> 00:12:25,400
with you first, which is unheard
of in business these days.

259
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:28,400
Absolutely.
Normally it's customer

260
00:12:28,400 --> 00:12:30,640
acquisition, right?
Who's the next person coming?

261
00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:33,480
Yeah, because there's there's
things that I've seen over the

262
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,840
years in real estate that and
I'm sure it falls, falls in line

263
00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:40,120
with what Brian does is that
that it's like 90% of people who

264
00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,160
who buy a house don't use that
realtor when they go to sell it

265
00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,600
because they never hear from
them again.

266
00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:47,480
True.
And I've had, I mean, I've had

267
00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,920
people that I'm constantly in
contact with and they'll still

268
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,160
walk into a new, but I'm like,
you did not just do that.

269
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:55,520
And that's the catch with new
builds.

270
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,320
There's a little thing in the
very bottom of the door.

271
00:12:57,960 --> 00:12:59,840
If your realtor's not with you,
you're screwed.

272
00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,760
And then they'll call me, hey,
dude, I went to a new build.

273
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:04,760
I want to buy it.
I'm like you're killing me

274
00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,000
smalls, that's why I make
videos.

275
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,680
Do not go into a new build
without me.

276
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:10,720
That's why you never have any
problem with me though, Chris,

277
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:12,680
come on now.
Right, right.

278
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,240
And yeah, yeah, see.
Brian Chris Ragged across town

279
00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,280
believe.
That yeah, Brian's an hour away

280
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,520
from me and I'm still when, when
he was looking for houses, man,

281
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:21,920
it's like let's go he referred
me somebody that I've been

282
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:25,240
working with for about 3 weeks
now it's legit it's an hour and

283
00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:28,320
10 minutes one way just to show
this this person houses and

284
00:13:28,320 --> 00:13:31,360
stuff and what he wants is
unique so we we're still kind of

285
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:34,360
open our doors and exploring
things but we've never been

286
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,560
afraid to drive, you know most.
Realtors, let's be honest, 2,

287
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:40,520
two, 2 1/2 years ago when we
purchased the, the house I'm in

288
00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,680
now, that one was tough market.
There wasn't a lot of

289
00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:46,000
availability and what I was
looking for was really

290
00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,440
difficult.
And well, I think what we did,

291
00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:51,400
we did one day, we did 2020
house views in one day.

292
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,400
They just lined them up.
We if we drove by, they had curb

293
00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:56,120
kill, we went in.
If they didn't then we were on

294
00:13:56,120 --> 00:13:59,880
and we put he put offers in on
on five or six, did inspections

295
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:01,720
on four and cancelled a bunch of
them.

296
00:14:02,760 --> 00:14:05,000
But that's, I mean, you have to
adapt when the, when the market

297
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,240
changes, you evolve or you die.
And right.

298
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:11,480
So it's kind of like you ugly
pool man, he evolves.

299
00:14:11,480 --> 00:14:14,040
He's evolved over the years, you
know, because now he, he does

300
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:16,440
complete backyard installation
and creation.

301
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:19,360
So anything from the back door
to the back fence, wall to wall,

302
00:14:19,360 --> 00:14:21,560
Brian can turn it from dirt into
paradise.

303
00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:23,720
Oh, we've always, we always did
that.

304
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,360
We just never focused on our
marketing.

305
00:14:25,560 --> 00:14:27,280
Now it's become a pretty big
part of it do.

306
00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,560
You have a YouTube channel?
I do.

307
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,000
It's that we fix ugly pools or
we fix light pools and ugly pool

308
00:14:34,000 --> 00:14:35,360
guy.
So I've got a couple of them.

309
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:39,280
There are a lot of, some of.
These I've only ever seen the

310
00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:41,280
Diamondbacks pool that you've
done so I'll definitely

311
00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,440
subscribe and.
The the World Record pool is

312
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,520
pretty pretty fun.
It takes you about 6 minutes to

313
00:14:45,520 --> 00:14:46,840
watch.
What we want to watch out on our

314
00:14:46,840 --> 00:14:48,960
big screen.
Yeah, and the, and the cool

315
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,720
thing about that, the world
record pool, it wasn't just

316
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,040
digging a hole, dropping a pool
in the ground.

317
00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:57,640
They they had the water features
that shot across the pool like

318
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:59,240
it was legit.
Is that when you're done with

319
00:14:59,240 --> 00:15:00,560
it?
It's like, holy smokes, this is

320
00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:03,400
a really nice swimming pool.
So you didn't just go in, slap

321
00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:05,080
it together, you built a badass
pool.

322
00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:06,840
Yeah, that's.
And the and the.

323
00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:08,560
Like I said, it wasn't just the
pool though.

324
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:10,800
Yeah, we did everything.
We we landscaped it, we built

325
00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:13,280
the play area for the kids.
Because every time I turned

326
00:15:13,280 --> 00:15:15,000
around, the media was like, what
else you going to do?

327
00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:16,440
What else you going to do?
What else you going to do?

328
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,520
And I'm like, what more do you
want me to do but build a pool

329
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,920
and under 5, you know, 6 out.
Yeah, yeah.

330
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:24,160
Is that all you you were
required to do is just build the

331
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:26,000
pool to beat the record?
Yeah.

332
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,080
Wow.
Shasta's pool is a very basic

333
00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,960
pool.
It was over off actually went to

334
00:15:30,960 --> 00:15:35,200
the pool.
It was over off of Peoria and

335
00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,760
like 90 2nd Ave.
I met the lady.

336
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,920
She was, you know, very upset
about the fact that we were

337
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,120
going after this record because
she's had it.

338
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:46,480
But their pool is a very basic
plaster pool with cap tile.

339
00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:50,600
And I, you know, wanted to do
something much better, but we

340
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:52,720
wanted to make it more of the
complete experience.

341
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,160
In fact, the husband went to
work that morning thinking we'd

342
00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,320
be done in the afternoon.
And the the boss that was before

343
00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:00,480
streaming was a big thing.
So we streamed.

344
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,320
Oh.
That's right, I remember that.

345
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:05,440
And, and we had a million, we
could cap it a million viewers

346
00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,200
and our system kept crashing
because there was only, there

347
00:16:08,200 --> 00:16:10,320
was always a million viewers,
but people were waiting in the

348
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:14,160
queue. 60% were from other
countries, yeah.

349
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,160
Yeah, I forgot about the.
Stream.

350
00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,040
Yeah, because it didn't.
We didn't have all this cool

351
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,080
technology where you pick up
your phone and stream.

352
00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,040
We had to set up this whole
intricate system and have

353
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,600
cameras everywhere.
And it was.

354
00:16:24,760 --> 00:16:27,280
Pretty cool, right?
And then just so people realize

355
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,720
I'm in.
I'm in Queen Creek, AZ Brian's

356
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:31,880
in Glendale, AZ Mike's in
Pontiac, IL.

357
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:34,800
Yep.
And here we are, you know.

358
00:16:35,400 --> 00:16:37,400
But it's so much simpler now
because everybody's video

359
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:38,040
calling now.
Oh.

360
00:16:38,440 --> 00:16:39,320
Yeah, right.
Oh yeah.

361
00:16:39,480 --> 00:16:42,520
Yeah, this system works pretty
much Florida State as long as

362
00:16:42,520 --> 00:16:44,280
you have a cable modem or
faster.

363
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,280
Yeah, So what else do you want
to talk about there, ugly pool

364
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:49,680
guy?
Man, what do you want to talk

365
00:16:49,680 --> 00:16:54,040
about?
I'm all of excitement all the

366
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,240
time.
So I know, I know, I know.

367
00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:59,120
So in the background, I can't
help but notice the superhero

368
00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,680
picture because, you know,
somebody gave that to you.

369
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,920
Yeah, that was from you.
So the representation.

370
00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:07,160
Yeah, Talk a little bit about
your dad, man.

371
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:10,480
Your dad was, was a, was a, was
just a cool human for sure.

372
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:14,240
I didn't know how much of A cool
human he was and until

373
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,240
unfortunately, you know, he, he
passed away.

374
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:19,119
But that's when I like, Oh my
gosh, this guy.

375
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:23,680
So I've always looked at my dad
as like larger than life.

376
00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:26,480
He's always been my superhero.
And he he used to have these

377
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:29,520
little quips all the time,
saying things like, you know,

378
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,600
inch by inch is a sense yard by
yard is hard.

379
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:34,040
And it became my my motto in
life.

380
00:17:34,120 --> 00:17:36,960
And I didn't realize it.
We used it when we were on the

381
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,440
track and field.
So it back in the 90s high

382
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:41,720
school was a national champion,
state champion and went on to

383
00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:44,680
the national championships.
Was placed top in the world of

384
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:46,320
of.
These people don't know.

385
00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:52,440
Shot put in discus so I was a
shot putter and but anytime that

386
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,720
I would get frustrated, he would
say, just remember inch by inch

387
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,080
is a sense yard by yard is hard.
But I didn't realize that the,

388
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:02,160
the phrase actually meant more
in life than it did in in on the

389
00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,000
field.
So I, I adopted it and I started

390
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:07,840
to learn to celebrate the small
victories and that was how I

391
00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,400
started to gear all my success.
So when I talk to people, our

392
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:13,560
mentor people and they get
frustrated because they see I

393
00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:16,440
said, look, I've had 20 years of
fumbling to get where I'm at you

394
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:18,480
know, inch by inch is how it how
you get there.

395
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:24,640
So in 2023, he passed away and
that's when you grabbed this

396
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,480
and, and sent this to me.
But I had created the, the, the,

397
00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:30,640
the character for the ugly pool
guy.

398
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:34,360
And I always put my dad in the
picture and you know, he's

399
00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:36,560
always been my Superman.
So he's always looking over my

400
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:39,720
shoulder, but reminding me that,
you know, inch by inch you can

401
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:43,040
make anything happen.
So it's he, he was the eternal,

402
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:46,240
he was the eternal mentor.
He taught for 27 years.

403
00:18:46,240 --> 00:18:48,920
And I, I run into his students
all the time that he had him in

404
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:52,160
the 70s that talk about the
profound impact that he had on

405
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:54,800
their lives.
And I'm blessed to have been

406
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:58,120
able to call him my dad.
As hard as he was, he, he was a,

407
00:18:58,120 --> 00:19:01,960
a ball Buster.
You know, he was not afraid as

408
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,880
even as much as he was always
the most supportive guy.

409
00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,840
Hey, 2nd place was first loser.
So just remember this, there was

410
00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,640
there was always that if you're
going to go after it, you go

411
00:19:12,640 --> 00:19:13,840
after it and do the best that
you can.

412
00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:16,440
But second place is first loser.
So he didn't give out

413
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,120
participation trophies.
He expected.

414
00:19:18,120 --> 00:19:19,840
If you're going to do it, you go
to it.

415
00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,440
You're never allowed to quit in
the middle of a season.

416
00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:23,160
If you're if you don't like
something, you finish out the

417
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,640
season, you do it.
But if you're going to do it and

418
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,920
he want you want me to, he wants
you to, you want me to.

419
00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:30,240
If I wanted him to help me, I
was going to perform at the

420
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:33,080
level that he wanted that I
wanted to be at, not him,

421
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,080
because he never put those
expectations on me.

422
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:38,080
But a lot of that made you who
you are today, for sure.

423
00:19:38,560 --> 00:19:42,360
I feel the same way, man.
You know, there's times when you

424
00:19:42,360 --> 00:19:46,560
really, when you're young, you
think, man, does he really love

425
00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:48,320
me?
You know, why, why's he got to

426
00:19:48,320 --> 00:19:50,720
be like this?
And then when you're our age,

427
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:54,600
you think back on those moments
or you see people that didn't

428
00:19:54,600 --> 00:19:57,400
have that and they're they're
really fucked in life, right?

429
00:19:57,400 --> 00:20:00,640
They didn't have anybody to call
them on their bullshit, right?

430
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:05,280
Because women can serve both
roles to an extent.

431
00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,720
But there has to be that what
you called an intimidation

432
00:20:08,720 --> 00:20:10,640
factor, right?
I had that as well.

433
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,560
My dad 64235 when he, you know,
as a young man, he was built

434
00:20:14,560 --> 00:20:19,200
like a freight train.
So I could only go so far before

435
00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:22,800
I had to be either.
I could never be smarter than

436
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,440
him and I could never be bigger
than him at that time, you know,

437
00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:27,120
like I'm fucked.
OK.

438
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:28,640
I got.
I got to tell you, Mike.

439
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,400
I'll just tell you the truth.
I I graduated I graduated high

440
00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:37,040
school 6 foot 4 and 295.
My dad was 50 years old, 662 and

441
00:20:37,040 --> 00:20:41,200
a half and 2:50 and I made the
mistake of of stepping up to him

442
00:20:41,840 --> 00:20:43,680
right after my mom passed away
my senior year.

443
00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:45,680
And I made the mistake of
stepping up to him one day.

444
00:20:46,360 --> 00:20:52,680
And at 50 my dad picked up a 290
LB man and put me through a wall

445
00:20:52,680 --> 00:20:54,680
this far off off the ground.
Oh my God.

446
00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:57,520
And he told me he goes always
remember something.

447
00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:00,240
You can always be bigger than
me, but you're never going to be

448
00:21:00,240 --> 00:21:02,440
meaner than me.
I love that.

449
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:08,840
Fair enough.
So I I had had an opportunity

450
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:12,440
late in life.
I I just had a son when I turned

451
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,080
49.
Congratulations.

452
00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:17,960
And and I have to give my dad
again, all thanks to this credit

453
00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:22,200
because in 2022, I was running
for a, a state State House

454
00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,760
representative and we were
watching the video at the

455
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,080
primary and I was like, man,
that video really puts on some

456
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:29,200
weight.
My dad looked at me and goes,

457
00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,200
son, that's not the video.
And I was, I had gotten, I'd

458
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:35,680
gotten heavier than I'd ever
gotten because I just kind of

459
00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:38,240
let myself go.
I was wearing a almost a 5X

460
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:40,600
shirt, 44 pants.
I'm 370 lbs.

461
00:21:40,600 --> 00:21:43,080
I'm just unhealthy.
But I had convinced myself that

462
00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:47,160
I was still this large man.
So over the next 15 months, I

463
00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:50,320
dropped 130 lbs.
I turned my biomarkers around.

464
00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:52,960
I was biologically 56 years old
at 47.

465
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:58,680
I'm now biologically 42 at 49.
And all of a sudden, all of a

466
00:21:58,680 --> 00:22:02,360
sudden my baby pops up.
And so now I've got the, the

467
00:22:02,360 --> 00:22:05,800
revision to the Superman picture
as we put, we put grandpa in

468
00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,760
heaven and he's looking down on
us and his Superman and I've got

469
00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,080
little bee on my shoulder.
So when I get that that one.

470
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,600
Done.
And I love that.

471
00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:16,840
The difficulty with that too,
because when I, when I had that

472
00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,640
idea, I had nobody would do it
because Superman's a trademark

473
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:22,320
logo.
And I was like, you got to be

474
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:23,960
kidding me.
Like I went to so many different

475
00:22:23,960 --> 00:22:26,000
outlets that to do it and nobody
would do it.

476
00:22:26,000 --> 00:22:27,240
I forget who ended up doing it
for me.

477
00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:29,560
And from this point it looks
really cool.

478
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,080
But well, I know, but Brian
knows when you're up close, it's

479
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:35,960
kind of pixelated just because
of of the image itself.

480
00:22:35,960 --> 00:22:38,040
But from this point of view it's
I mean.

481
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:42,560
It looks bad ass from where I.
Yeah, And I was telling you,

482
00:22:42,560 --> 00:22:44,880
what do you get somebody that
that because really, the stories

483
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,400
I've heard from his dad, the one
the one that resonates with me

484
00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,400
because I didn't know your dad,
but I met him one time.

485
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:55,320
And then when I ran into him at
the Rattlers game, it's like we

486
00:22:55,320 --> 00:22:58,400
we known each other entire life.
Like that's just how he was.

487
00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,960
He was he always looked at me
and smiled, was happy to see me.

488
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:06,240
I mean, he was that kind of guy.
But the story that stuck with me

489
00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,760
that you told was the fact that
the one time he got stuck on the

490
00:23:09,760 --> 00:23:11,440
side of the road and nobody
would help him.

491
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:14,760
So from that point forward, he
would, he would always have a

492
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:18,120
tool kit in her or tool,
whatever in his box, right?

493
00:23:18,120 --> 00:23:20,560
And anybody he saw on the side
of the road, he would stop,

494
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,000
regardless of the time of day,
regardless of where he was

495
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:26,880
going, regardless of.
This we would be on cross

496
00:23:26,880 --> 00:23:29,440
country trips to go to visit
family in Oklahoma.

497
00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:33,360
It would be 0° outside icy roads
and he'd see a family.

498
00:23:33,360 --> 00:23:36,680
My dad had this this this little
Craftsman toolbox that had

499
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,160
everything in there.
My dad was a a badass mechanic.

500
00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:41,200
He was he.
He taught in industrial arts and

501
00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:44,400
mechanics in school.
I watched them drop the engine

502
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:48,720
of a VW bug change out, rebuild
a carburetor in a Fry's parking

503
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:49,960
lot.
Smitty's back then, but if.

504
00:23:50,280 --> 00:23:53,640
Parking.
I himself put the engine back

505
00:23:53,640 --> 00:23:55,480
in, bolt it up and get the
people on their way.

506
00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,280
So we're driving to Oklahoma,
it's middle of the night and

507
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:01,040
there's this family struck on
the side of the road.

508
00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:04,320
My dad pulls out his toolbox.
We're sleeping in the motorhome.

509
00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:06,600
I wake up, I go out there, he's
like here, hold the flashlight

510
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:11,200
for me and my head in freezing
conditions, wearing AT shirt and

511
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:15,440
shorts and socks and his
slippers works on this guy's car

512
00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:16,760
and gets his family back on the
road.

513
00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,800
And he told me this, you know,
when he when he goes, I'll never

514
00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:22,360
leave anybody stranded.
So that's my philosophy today,

515
00:24:22,360 --> 00:24:25,360
even though everybody has cell
phones and AAA, we still stop

516
00:24:25,360 --> 00:24:28,960
the change tires all the time.
Yeah, that was that was the most

517
00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:31,280
endearing story I heard when
when we were at his, at his,

518
00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:33,720
what do you call that
celebration of life?

519
00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:35,160
Celebration of life?
Yeah.

520
00:24:35,320 --> 00:24:37,520
That was I mean that.
Wasn't just an impressive thing

521
00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,040
though.
I mean you saw people that

522
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:42,360
showed up for him from
elementary school kids that had

523
00:24:42,360 --> 00:24:45,800
him in as a teacher in the
Seventies, 80s and 90s.

524
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:50,120
I mean, there was 300 and 5400
people that showed up for that.

525
00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,680
Yeah, it was packed.
It was packed.

526
00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,760
But that was the one story that
stuck out to me just because

527
00:24:54,920 --> 00:24:57,920
it's, you know, who does that
anymore on a grand scale?

528
00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:00,680
You know, unless you're a small
town Midwest type thing, you

529
00:25:00,680 --> 00:25:01,720
don't hear about that.
So.

530
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:03,720
Yeah.
And even that's rare nowadays

531
00:25:03,720 --> 00:25:04,840
for sure.
Yeah.

532
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,360
Well that cause of all the
serial colors and stuff you know

533
00:25:07,360 --> 00:25:12,200
and so.
So there you go.

534
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:16,160
So Little B just turned 1.
Just turned 1.

535
00:25:16,160 --> 00:25:18,720
I got to spend his birthday
party on Saturday in the

536
00:25:18,720 --> 00:25:19,760
hospital.
Right.

537
00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:21,800
And and why is that?
Brian Morris?

538
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,000
So in February this year I
decided that I was going to

539
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,560
start throwing shot, putting
discus again.

540
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,800
I got healthy.
So I decided I'm driving down

541
00:25:29,800 --> 00:25:31,120
the street, I'm going to start
throwing shot.

542
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:32,920
I haven't done it in 28 years.
Why not?

543
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,520
I had no plans of competing this
year.

544
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:38,800
And 3rd day into it at the
second week of February, the

545
00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,880
coach at GCC is like, hey, why
don't you throw in our meat on

546
00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:44,400
Saturday?
Well, in the master side, as you

547
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:48,720
get older, they, they breakdown
age divisions like 50 to 5455 to

548
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:50,440
59.
So it was a five year age

549
00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:53,080
division.
And after my meet I threw

550
00:25:53,080 --> 00:25:55,640
against all these college kids
on that Saturday I played second

551
00:25:55,640 --> 00:25:58,520
out of 36.
That following Monday I found

552
00:25:58,520 --> 00:26:02,000
out I was #3 in the world for
masters after not throwing for

553
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:05,920
that long.
So I, I spent the next 15 weeks,

554
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,480
I, I didn't prepped myself for
it.

555
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,000
I was kind of like just right
back to throwing and I thought,

556
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:13,880
hey, I'm going to train the way
I used to train when I was in my

557
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,000
20s, which was five days a week,
compete on the weekends, don't

558
00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,520
take any days off.
Well, our bodies breakdown at 50

559
00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:22,000
a little differently a little
bit.

560
00:26:22,360 --> 00:26:26,640
So I, I tore A calf, I tore A
hamstring, I pulled a growing.

561
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,440
I ended up with a small anigual
hernia that I just kind of

562
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,360
ignored.
And then I just kept going and

563
00:26:32,360 --> 00:26:35,520
going and going.
I was doing things at the I

564
00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:38,480
think it was right around the
4th of of May.

565
00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:42,120
I had set my sights on breaking
this meat record up in Eugene,

566
00:26:42,120 --> 00:26:45,280
OR and had stood for 30 years at
a place called Track Town USA.

567
00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:47,400
It's the most amazing track
stadium.

568
00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:51,480
Eugene, is that in the same kind
of area where Nike was

569
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:53,200
developed?
That's exactly it.

570
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,080
OK, Yep.
So the Eugene Stadium is it's

571
00:26:56,080 --> 00:26:59,000
track town when you when you
pull in, it's track everything.

572
00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:00,280
I mean, that's that's what it
is.

573
00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:01,680
Yep.
So.

574
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:05,480
So that's what it is.
You're.

575
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:08,360
Fine, whoever wants to see you.
So it's Penny.

576
00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:11,360
We're not that.
We're not that like rigid dude.

577
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:16,000
Yeah, so I get there.
I, I set sights on breaking that

578
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:18,840
record.
I, I'm on my, my last throw and

579
00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,920
I broke a record that was 30
years old at that point.

580
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,320
I'm, I'm within striking
distance of an Arizona record,

581
00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,720
which is 20 years old and the
national record, which is 20

582
00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,160
years old.
I come back, I start training

583
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,480
right away on Monday.
That Thursday, I'm just doing

584
00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:34,760
basic drills and I blow the
meniscus out of my knee.

585
00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,200
Ouch.
So I tore up both horns on the

586
00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,440
meniscus of my knee.
And how?

587
00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:45,440
Does everybody says it does.
It worse, I went from feeling

588
00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:47,880
like I was on top of the world
to couldn't even walk.

589
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:51,280
You hear grown men who are
powerful athletes scream when

590
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,440
that happens, so I just, it's
got to hurt like you can't even

591
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:56,680
imagine.
I got carried to my truck, let's

592
00:27:56,680 --> 00:27:59,040
put it that way, OK?
So, and you're on.

593
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:03,880
Stop throwers are pretty good
yeah yeah, I started started

594
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:08,200
doing the the rehab right away A
lot of alternative therapies I

595
00:28:08,200 --> 00:28:12,320
do a lot of regenerative factors
stem cells, PRP, red light,

596
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,840
hyperbaric oxygen, cryotherapy.
I mean, I'm doing it all.

597
00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:17,600
Stem waves, shockwave, you name
it, I'm.

598
00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,920
Doing it stem cells just out of.
Curiosity Well, in in America,

599
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:22,840
you can't get true stem cells.
So we get what's called

600
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,120
regenerative factors.
And regenerative factors are

601
00:28:25,120 --> 00:28:28,000
what stem cells turn into.
A lot of people don't understand

602
00:28:28,240 --> 00:28:31,640
how it works.
So, and I can't say this word

603
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,240
correctly, but they're called
mesochemical.

604
00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:36,200
Stem cells are what we get with
you go out of country, you can

605
00:28:36,200 --> 00:28:38,600
actually get where they're
embryonic and you actually get

606
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:41,680
the, the, the, the young stem
cells that can become pretty

607
00:28:41,680 --> 00:28:44,400
much anything.
But what the stem cells do is

608
00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:46,960
they turn into what's called
regenerative factors.

609
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:50,000
And regenerative factors are the
messaging systems that actually

610
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:53,240
help to rebuild tissue cells,
everything like that.

611
00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:57,560
In America, you can't get true
stem cells because of all of the

612
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,200
stipulations about having
embryonic stem cells and

613
00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,000
whatnot.
So that's why a lot of people go

614
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:05,240
back down to Mexico, Costa Rica,
or Panama.

615
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:08,520
You hear Joe Rogan talking about
Panama all the time for stem

616
00:29:08,520 --> 00:29:10,920
cells.
It's a huge Joe Rogan fan.

617
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,040
Oh yeah.
I listen to a lot.

618
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,240
Yeah, me too.
So I, I found a Doctor that

619
00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,200
actually does the, the, the
regenerative factors.

620
00:29:20,680 --> 00:29:23,200
And when you do stem cells,
you're doing hundreds of

621
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:24,720
millions.
When you're doing regenerative

622
00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:28,560
factors, you're doing billions.
So I, I, I got hurt.

623
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,920
I called him up on the phone.
It's 5:00 in the afternoon and

624
00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:34,640
I'm like, hey, I got hurt.
He's on his way home.

625
00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,040
He's like, come to my office.
I get to his office 7:30, he

626
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,000
stays till 9:00 treating me with
stem cells on my knee and

627
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:43,920
intravenously.
I come back ten days later, do

628
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:45,360
another round.
Amazing.

629
00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,760
So Saturday had been six week in
two days, five weeks in two days

630
00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:52,360
that I'd been off.
They told me that I wouldn't be

631
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:53,520
able to throw the rest of the
season.

632
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,680
I'm trying to get to nationals.
I'm out.

633
00:29:55,720 --> 00:29:59,560
I'm out at the track meet at
Mesa Community College and I'm I

634
00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:01,160
hadn't thrown a full throw in
six weeks.

635
00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:04,120
So I hadn't even practiced but
twice in six weeks.

636
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:09,160
And since I got hurt and I throw
my 5th throw and I, I fouled the

637
00:30:09,160 --> 00:30:11,720
throw, but it was over the
American record and it was over

638
00:30:11,720 --> 00:30:14,280
the Arizona record.
So I'm feeling really good in my

639
00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:17,960
last throw and I go to load up
and next thing I know I felt the

640
00:30:17,960 --> 00:30:20,840
pop and, and I knew I knew
something was wrong.

641
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,040
Got home and found out that not
only the indigo hernia that I

642
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,200
had that I knew the other one
had split open too.

643
00:30:28,200 --> 00:30:33,640
So little Bee's birthday started
at this was I got home at 11:30

644
00:30:33,960 --> 00:30:37,760
at by 2:00 I had swelling in
places that I wish I didn't.

645
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,520
I felt like I was carrying a
basketball between my legs and

646
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,680
something was wrong.
And so I head to the the ER at

647
00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:45,600
2:00.
Seventy people showed up for his

648
00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,320
birthday party at 5:00 and I was
in surgery and the next morning

649
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,680
at 7:30.
Yeah man, well at least it was

650
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:53,560
his first birthday so he won't
remember.

651
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,640
It sucks for you that you
weren't there for sure.

652
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:58,160
And holy crap.
It was a great party.

653
00:30:58,160 --> 00:31:01,000
I saw what I could see on.
Facebook, that's insane and,

654
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,040
and, and technology.
We were able to.

655
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,480
You watch some of them on
FaceTime, right?

656
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:06,320
Yeah, I watched the gift
opening.

657
00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,200
I watched.
I got a lot of pictures.

658
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,760
I cried a lot, you know, because
I want to be here with my son.

659
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,080
And.
And whenever he would grab the

660
00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,800
phone, Little Little Bee is so
in tune with me.

661
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:17,680
He grabs a phone and he runs
around.

662
00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:19,200
He shows everybody Dad, dad,
dad, dad.

663
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:21,760
And he just so it's just so
funny.

664
00:31:21,760 --> 00:31:23,520
But he's going in circles and
he's looking down.

665
00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:25,920
He's like Dad and he's showing
everybody me, you know?

666
00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:30,360
Yeah, it was pretty cool.
But then I got home.

667
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,040
Yes.
I got home late on Sunday night

668
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,160
and he he immediately runs up to
me and I can't pick him up

669
00:31:37,160 --> 00:31:38,880
because I, you know, I can't
carry the weight.

670
00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:42,600
So it's, he was just crying
that, that just broke my heart.

671
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:45,840
I mean, as a man, I, I think
I've waited a long time to have

672
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:47,600
this kid.
So yeah.

673
00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:49,200
Yeah.
And if anybody knows Brian,

674
00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:55,040
Brian just this was this defines
Brian having a son.

675
00:31:55,840 --> 00:31:58,920
Like if anybody, if anybody in
the world deserved to have a son

676
00:31:58,920 --> 00:32:00,960
that wanted a son more than
anything else in the in the

677
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:03,240
world, that's Brian Morris.
I'm just.

678
00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:05,840
Sitting here thinking that this
is the luckiest kid in the world

679
00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,480
because, you know, everything
I'm feeling from you is exactly

680
00:32:09,480 --> 00:32:11,000
what Chris just described.
Yeah.

681
00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,360
And and little kid was.
Blessed for sure.

682
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:15,240
And he is he's such a cute
little kid.

683
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:18,960
Like he's he when you see a
picture of me, like he doesn't

684
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,080
look like he's 1.
He just he looks like this

685
00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:24,040
really old soul for being such a
such a little.

686
00:32:24,360 --> 00:32:26,480
I mean, it's one, but you just I
mean it's.

687
00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:27,960
Just like a little person
already, yeah.

688
00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:30,720
It's a trip.
It's all, it's even crazier is

689
00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:33,080
his muscle development.
Like, you know, he's got a

690
00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:36,800
chest, he's got a back, he's got
lats and I'm like, he's got

691
00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:39,080
these, he's got, he's got
grandpa's thighs.

692
00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:40,840
I mean, I wish I had my dad's
thighs.

693
00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:44,320
My dad had these massive thighs
and he's got these massive

694
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:45,400
thighs.
And I'm like, Yep, you're

695
00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:46,920
definitely your grandpa's kid,
you know?

696
00:32:47,040 --> 00:32:49,320
That's why he picked you up and
threw you through that wall.

697
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,880
Power's in your legs, man.
A lot of power was in that man

698
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:59,480
in every aspect of his body.
I mean, the funny story, there

699
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,560
was an athlete that came down.
His name was Mike Hungerford

700
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,000
right before he passed away.
And Mike was one of my dad's

701
00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,280
throwers, big football kid.
He was massive lineman in in

702
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,320
Moon Valley.
My dad used to arm wrestle these

703
00:33:09,320 --> 00:33:11,400
kids and they used to always
want to try to take on my dad.

704
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,280
My dad never lost arm wrestling.
That's fun.

705
00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:15,640
So it took about a couple days
before my dad passed away.

706
00:33:15,640 --> 00:33:19,240
Mike comes over to the house and
my dad's down to 175 lbs.

707
00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,720
He's still got these massive man
hands that's been cranking

708
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,480
wrenches and and and working on
farms and doing all this stuff

709
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:26,760
his whole life.
And I'll never forget Mike

710
00:33:26,760 --> 00:33:28,760
looking at him and goes, you
know, coach, he goes, I think I

711
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,360
can finally take you and my dad
with this big shit eating grin,

712
00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:36,160
looks at him and goes.
And Mike just lost it, you know,

713
00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,160
because my my dad, yeah, he's
the eternal tough guy.

714
00:33:39,160 --> 00:33:42,800
There was there was no if you
want to talk about a man being a

715
00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:44,880
man, that was him.
Like even on.

716
00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:46,560
Your best day is that going to
happen?

717
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,760
No, and that's what he said.
It was basically, you know.

718
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:52,080
No, I feel the same way about my
dad for sure.

719
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:55,600
It's like he, those guys were
just a different, no matter how

720
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:59,200
much we think we're men sitting
here, they were a different

721
00:33:59,200 --> 00:34:02,480
breed of man, right?
For good or bad, indifferent.

722
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:05,240
You know, they lived in a
different time, but that was a

723
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:08,080
different man.
As far as you're saying the

724
00:34:08,080 --> 00:34:11,280
toughness, the meanness, the
there's no quit.

725
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:14,239
I go to work every day.
Unless I'm dying, I'll be at

726
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:15,560
work, right?
Yeah.

727
00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:18,920
That was their mindset.
And that's the mindset that I

728
00:34:18,920 --> 00:34:21,320
carry too.
I mean, you know, I got home at,

729
00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,639
I got home at 4:30 on Sunday.
I was back at work at 7:00 AM

730
00:34:24,639 --> 00:34:27,360
yesterday so.
And on the way from the

731
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,199
hospital, where, where did you
stop Brian?

732
00:34:29,960 --> 00:34:34,320
So I, I'm a big, I left the
hospital and rent right to

733
00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,920
hyperbaric oxygen.
So I, I've been studying

734
00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,040
alternative therapies for the
last 2 1/2 years.

735
00:34:39,040 --> 00:34:41,560
I got on the the trail of
alternative therapies.

736
00:34:41,719 --> 00:34:44,320
I don't believe in big pharma.
I don't take, I haven't taken a

737
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:47,199
single painkiller in years.
I don't take aspirin.

738
00:34:48,920 --> 00:34:55,159
So I, I, I've been on this since
my dad got cancer and actually

739
00:34:55,159 --> 00:34:58,760
went right to the hyperbaric
oxygen therapy and, and started

740
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,120
treatment with that, got into
the red light, got into that.

741
00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:05,880
I, I believe that if we were
actually empowering people to

742
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,240
heal, that we would be putting
people in a hyperbaric prior to

743
00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:12,600
surgery and immediately after
surgery, because the number one

744
00:35:12,600 --> 00:35:15,080
thing that allows our body to
heal is oxygen.

745
00:35:15,520 --> 00:35:18,960
So if you preload the body and
allow it to have a more cellular

746
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:22,320
movement and have that better
blood flow, everything's going

747
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:25,160
to work better.
You can use a lower doses of of

748
00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:27,200
anesthesia.
You can use lower doses of pain

749
00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,520
meds to get the same results and
you're going to have better

750
00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:32,760
tissue healing.
And actually in 48 hours, the

751
00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:37,680
scarring around my incision
points has almost completely

752
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:41,320
there's almost completely no, no
bruising at all, which is

753
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:42,880
insane.
So, people.

754
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,880
Need to hear this for sure
because very few people listen

755
00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:50,760
to the amount of different kind
of alternative medicine therapy

756
00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:53,840
doctors, you know, people who
are legitimate.

757
00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,840
You know that you and I do
because we hear a lot of them on

758
00:35:56,840 --> 00:36:00,680
Rogan and the people that you
know, Jordan Peterson and the

759
00:36:00,680 --> 00:36:03,720
people that have followed Rogan
for years that he's had on there

760
00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:07,240
that I listen to for different
things for the same reason.

761
00:36:07,240 --> 00:36:09,280
You know, there has to be a
better way.

762
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:14,120
I was an avid cannabis user for
years.

763
00:36:14,120 --> 00:36:17,800
You know, I used it
recreationally in the band, you

764
00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:21,840
know, to write better songs.
I used it later on after I got

765
00:36:21,840 --> 00:36:24,160
in a car accident for pain
management.

766
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:29,000
And then that ability was taken
away from me through a job and I

767
00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:33,800
got addicted to Xanax for
anxiety.

768
00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,920
You know, the actually Chris
figured it out on this podcast,

769
00:36:36,920 --> 00:36:40,520
Brian, the first thing that I
was ever addicted to was

770
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,080
painkillers.
After I got in that car accident

771
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:46,040
that were prescribed by a doctor
legitimately, they sent me home

772
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,280
and gave me two muscle relaxers
and a painkiller and said take

773
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:52,280
this three times a day in
perpetuity.

774
00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:54,280
You know, I didn't know any
better.

775
00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:56,720
The doctor gave it to me.
This was 1998.

776
00:36:56,720 --> 00:37:00,920
So, you know, we didn't have the
whole opiate knowledge that we

777
00:37:00,920 --> 00:37:02,720
have today.
And if they did, they didn't

778
00:37:02,720 --> 00:37:04,120
tell us, right?
Yep.

779
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:05,920
So I'll tell.
You.

780
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:07,880
Kudos to you for saying all
that.

781
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,600
My, my journey is, has taken me
down the the rabbit hole of stem

782
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:16,600
cells, regenerative factors, red
light, hyperbaric cryotherapy.

783
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,360
I have a cold plant red sauna in
my garage.

784
00:37:19,720 --> 00:37:23,000
But I've become a guru when it
comes to peptide therapy because

785
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:26,520
I believe that holistically our
bodies are already.

786
00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,160
And I'm going to throw this
thing out there like.

787
00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,480
In the two main explain peptide
therapy because very.

788
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:31,960
Few people I'm going to right
now.

789
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:34,560
So first thing I'm going to do
is I'm going to say this.

790
00:37:35,680 --> 00:37:38,000
We treat everything better than
we treat ourselves.

791
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,200
And the reason why I say this is
because when you drive down the

792
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,600
road and your check engine light
comes on, you don't just pull

793
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:45,520
over and pull the fuse on your
check engine light.

794
00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,360
You take your car and you
schedule for maintenance.

795
00:37:47,600 --> 00:37:50,760
But when you have a headache,
you pull the fuse on the check

796
00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:52,360
engine light.
A headache is a check engine

797
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:53,680
light.
A headache.

798
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,680
A headache is your body's way of
signaling your brain because the

799
00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:59,120
brain knows no pain.
You can have open brain surgery

800
00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,160
and there's not a single pain
receptor in your brain.

801
00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:03,280
All the pain receptors are from
somewhere else.

802
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:05,360
So when you have something that
goes off in your brain, it's

803
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,680
coming from somewhere else,
that's a signal.

804
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:09,960
The brain is the computer that
you plug in.

805
00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:13,080
Like when you go get your car,
your brain plugs in and it says,

806
00:38:13,080 --> 00:38:16,440
hey, you have this error code
and then it has to signal your

807
00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,760
body on how to regenerate.
And the reason why we know that

808
00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,600
our bodies are perfect machines
is because when you are in a

809
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,080
situation where you're
extremity, when you're freezing,

810
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:26,840
what is the first thing that
freezes your extremities, right?

811
00:38:27,040 --> 00:38:29,000
Correct.
Is your body has to protect the

812
00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,560
head, the heart, the lungs and
the and the torso.

813
00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:34,920
You can lose both arms, both
legs and still function and

814
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:37,400
still live.
And your body knows this.

815
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:40,800
So it knows how to shut down the
the systems that it doesn't need

816
00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,840
in in, in perpetuity until it
gets to a point where it it has

817
00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:46,240
to start taking from other
things.

818
00:38:46,600 --> 00:38:49,840
So let's use that as aging.
As we age, our body takes from

819
00:38:49,840 --> 00:38:52,960
things like our skin.
If we want to know why women age

820
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:56,760
differently than men, as we get
to 5060 seventy years old, we

821
00:38:56,760 --> 00:39:01,280
don't look as aged as a woman
who's at 506070 because a woman

822
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:03,400
has more collagen that's taken
from their skin.

823
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,840
Once it takes from their skin
and the wrinkles start to

824
00:39:05,840 --> 00:39:08,240
happen, where does it go next?
It goes to bones.

825
00:39:08,240 --> 00:39:13,120
Why do women have more more
conditions of of of osteoporosis

826
00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:15,000
than any other than any other
thing?

827
00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:17,960
The men, because they're that's
the next thing that's that's

828
00:39:17,960 --> 00:39:21,840
that's gone after collagen is
the building block, not protein,

829
00:39:21,840 --> 00:39:25,720
not calcium collagen, skin,
bones, organs, all collagen

830
00:39:25,720 --> 00:39:27,880
based.
So let's just use that as as as

831
00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,000
a building block.
Peptides signal our body.

832
00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,640
They're short chain amino acids
or short chain proteins in our

833
00:39:33,640 --> 00:39:36,400
body that actually allow our
body to do certain things on a

834
00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:39,920
cellular level.
There's hundreds upon thousands

835
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:43,120
of different proteins in our
bodies, and there's hundreds

836
00:39:43,120 --> 00:39:45,520
upon thousands of different
peptides in our body.

837
00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:50,400
At age 30, our body starts to
lose the ability to regenerate

838
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,120
these things, so our production
starts to go down.

839
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:57,320
And the way I can use this, I
like analogies because it makes

840
00:39:57,320 --> 00:39:59,240
sense.
If you have a janitor that goes

841
00:39:59,240 --> 00:40:01,760
to a classroom and he's new on
the job and he's doing a perfect

842
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:03,880
job, he goes into the classroom,
the classroom's always clean.

843
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:05,720
He's wiping on the chalkboard,
he's cleaning the trash cans.

844
00:40:05,720 --> 00:40:08,800
He's mopping the floors.
Ten years later, that same

845
00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:11,800
janitor, he's got a lot of other
rooms, the classes are messy,

846
00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:13,600
He's getting in, he's hurrying
you through, but he's not

847
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:16,160
cleaning them exactly right.
So now you start to leave these

848
00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:18,960
cells behind that are called
zombie cells, or they're cells

849
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:20,360
that are just not getting taken
care of.

850
00:40:20,360 --> 00:40:23,120
They're not getting cleared out
of our body because our janitors

851
00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:24,800
aren't doing the work that
they're supposed to do.

852
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,200
And pretty soon it becomes too
overwhelming where he's lucky to

853
00:40:27,200 --> 00:40:30,000
come in and empty the trash can
anymore while those zombie cells

854
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:32,680
come together and we start to
have clusters of zombie cells

855
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:36,200
that then become what, cancers
and things like that that cause

856
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:39,320
degeneration in our body.
So I'm giving you the simple

857
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:43,160
understanding of how this works.
Peptides allow your body to

858
00:40:43,160 --> 00:40:47,120
restart and give yourself some
new janitors or to invigorate

859
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:48,640
the janitor.
Maybe you're giving a Red Bull

860
00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:52,040
and it allows you to have that
that whole idea that your body

861
00:40:52,040 --> 00:40:53,480
can heal.
So I'm going to use this.

862
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:55,560
In October I tore my calf
muscle.

863
00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:58,600
I had a CT scan in my calf.
They told me it was 6 to 12

864
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:00,400
weeks for the swelling to go
down and then I'd be good to

865
00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:04,320
throw again or not throw at the
time, but be good to walk. 3 1/2

866
00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,280
weeks later I went back.
I had him circle exactly where

867
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:10,280
the tear was in my calf. 3 1/2
weeks later I'm back and the guy

868
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:13,720
thought he CT that he kept the
wrong leg because it had

869
00:41:13,720 --> 00:41:16,240
completely healed.
I had gone home, started

870
00:41:16,240 --> 00:41:18,480
treating it with with peptides
immediately.

871
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:23,800
I for my, my hamstring third
week of 4th week of of training

872
00:41:24,160 --> 00:41:26,200
started treating with peptides
and never took a day off.

873
00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,840
I pulled my growings, never took
a day off.

874
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:32,080
I've competed, I've completed
competed at better levels.

875
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:37,000
I've got a a whole system for 15
months or 15 weeks of of better

876
00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,560
throws that at meats getting
better and better and better

877
00:41:39,560 --> 00:41:42,200
while I'm injured dealing with
knees and everything else.

878
00:41:42,200 --> 00:41:45,800
So I've been invigorated over
the last 2 1/2 years by

879
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:47,600
peptides.
Can I interject for one second?

880
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,080
Yes, I love everything you're
saying.

881
00:41:50,080 --> 00:41:52,560
I'm sitting over here.
I'm like floating on my chair

882
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,560
because you're speaking my
language, right?

883
00:41:54,560 --> 00:41:56,320
I listen to this all the same
things.

884
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:59,560
I haven't applied it to my life
to the level that you're talking

885
00:41:59,560 --> 00:42:01,200
about right now.
So this is amazing.

886
00:42:02,280 --> 00:42:06,440
What I'm hearing, and anybody
that's listening should be

887
00:42:06,440 --> 00:42:11,240
hearing, is there's no money in
treating people the way you're

888
00:42:11,240 --> 00:42:14,640
treating yourself, right?
There's money in giving them

889
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:18,760
prescription drugs and following
the status quo.

890
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:21,240
The way we've been doing it for
however long.

891
00:42:21,240 --> 00:42:25,320
Big Pharma's been controlling a
lot of this country in that they

892
00:42:25,320 --> 00:42:27,440
just dole out prescriptions like
they're candy.

893
00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:32,120
Well, Big Pharma wants to treat
us to death and I want to live a

894
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,360
better life.
Literally want to treat you to

895
00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:35,280
death.
Literally.

896
00:42:35,720 --> 00:42:38,880
And there was a time when
medicine in this country, I want

897
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:44,320
to believe, was way closer to
wanting to do the right thing.

898
00:42:44,400 --> 00:42:44,920
Right.
Nope.

899
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:49,760
I, I, I think that the original
intention, but very quickly

900
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,600
people saw the opportunity of
money.

901
00:42:52,080 --> 00:42:56,200
I think that I think that, but I
think that that when you have

902
00:42:56,680 --> 00:42:59,960
there absolute power is absolute
corruption and when you have

903
00:42:59,960 --> 00:43:02,520
power to to heal people, you
have absolute power.

904
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:05,160
If you have power to treat
people, then you have the

905
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:08,280
ability to have a return
residual income, and that model

906
00:43:08,280 --> 00:43:11,120
started 400 years ago.
Yeah, what do they say?

907
00:43:11,120 --> 00:43:13,160
Absolute power.
Corrupts absolutely.

908
00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:17,720
So I, I'm a big believer that
we, that we have allowed

909
00:43:17,720 --> 00:43:21,560
ourselves to be funneled.
If you look at, at, at third

910
00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:24,720
world countries, we're all old
enough to remember this.

911
00:43:24,720 --> 00:43:27,160
Do you guys remember the AIDS
epidemic in the 80s and the

912
00:43:27,160 --> 00:43:29,920
early 90s?
Absolutely everybody was going

913
00:43:29,920 --> 00:43:32,440
to die of AIDS.
A lot of five people had AIDS.

914
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:34,040
How come Africa's not wiped off
the map?

915
00:43:34,320 --> 00:43:36,800
I'll tell you why.
Because they're being treated

916
00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:41,240
with peptides type 1-2 and three
diabetes being treated.

917
00:43:41,240 --> 00:43:45,160
Not just treated, but let's use
the C word cured with peptides.

918
00:43:46,000 --> 00:43:48,720
So they don't have access to the
pharmaceuticals that we have

919
00:43:48,720 --> 00:43:51,000
because there's no, there's no
money in the third world country

920
00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:53,680
to have pharmaceuticals.
So they're treating them with

921
00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,720
alternatives.
Alternatives being the peptides

922
00:43:56,960 --> 00:44:03,400
for AIDS, hepatitis, AB and C
diabetes, 123 cancers, all of

923
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:05,120
these things.
There's actually a peptide out

924
00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,800
there, PNC 127, that is called
the cancer killer.

925
00:44:09,440 --> 00:44:11,200
Really.
How come nobody talks about it?

926
00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:13,520
I've heard there's no money in
it, man, no.

927
00:44:13,520 --> 00:44:15,760
Money in it.
There's no money that's why I

928
00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:21,200
wanted $1000 in a treatment of
of radiation or chemotherapy, a

929
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:24,120
round of of chemotherapy.
My dad's when I saw his bill was

930
00:44:24,120 --> 00:44:27,400
80,000 for his his.
Round so so here's and this is

931
00:44:27,400 --> 00:44:30,200
this is me being who I am as far
as have a conversationalist and

932
00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:33,320
whatnot.
So with your dad, was, was he

933
00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:36,000
just not, was he not a believer
in peptides or was it something

934
00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:36,360
that came?
Out.

935
00:44:36,360 --> 00:44:40,960
I was new, I was new.
I was just getting into the the

936
00:44:40,960 --> 00:44:43,040
understanding of it and it's a
lot to learn.

937
00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:47,960
I spent 50,000 to take him down
to Mexico.

938
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:50,840
I went down there.
The tumor shrank.

939
00:44:51,080 --> 00:44:53,720
But when he came back, the
oncologist told my dad that if

940
00:44:53,720 --> 00:44:55,680
he continued the alternative
treatments, that my dad was

941
00:44:55,680 --> 00:44:57,280
going to die and that he
wouldn't treat him anymore.

942
00:44:57,720 --> 00:44:59,320
So he stopped.
So he stopped.

943
00:44:59,880 --> 00:45:02,400
That's because he believed he
believed the medical

944
00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:07,120
professional.
Even though we had a proof model

945
00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,080
that those cancers were the
cells were shrinking, that the

946
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:15,880
tumors had shrunk, right.
And he gave himself back to the

947
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:17,720
conventional because he was, he
was scared.

948
00:45:17,720 --> 00:45:19,000
He didn't want to.
He didn't want to die.

949
00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:21,840
Yeah, yeah.
So how do you how do you

950
00:45:21,840 --> 00:45:22,760
balance?
How do you?

951
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,600
Balance.
The idea?

952
00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,800
Here's the one thing we know.
Right.

953
00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,320
People that have had people have
died with treatments of

954
00:45:32,320 --> 00:45:33,760
chemotherapy and radiation,
right?

955
00:45:33,800 --> 00:45:35,320
Yep, Yep.
Absolutely.

956
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,000
We we know that.
So we know that we know that

957
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:40,960
healthy people have died because
there's been mis mixed diagnosis

958
00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:43,560
and people that have been
prescribed that people that have

959
00:45:43,560 --> 00:45:46,920
taken those treatments have died
even though they had no cancers,

960
00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:48,720
right?
Did the cancer kill them or did

961
00:45:48,720 --> 00:45:50,480
the treatment kill them?
The treatment because if you

962
00:45:50,480 --> 00:45:52,320
think about it, I've heard, I
don't know if this is accurate

963
00:45:52,320 --> 00:45:56,280
or not, but I've heard that all
the all the people that died of

964
00:45:56,280 --> 00:45:58,600
COVID died in hospitals or under
doctor's care.

965
00:45:58,600 --> 00:46:01,480
None of them died at home.
Correct, and most of them were

966
00:46:01,480 --> 00:46:02,920
put on ventilators.
Right.

967
00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:05,800
Which what does that tell you?
Like the big thing when I had

968
00:46:05,800 --> 00:46:08,480
COVID both times, the first time
was they didn't want you laying

969
00:46:08,480 --> 00:46:11,560
on your back because you know,
whatever the lungs and things

970
00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,800
like that, which is impossible.
When you sleep, you don't know

971
00:46:13,800 --> 00:46:17,800
how you're sleeping, right?
But that was and when I got it

972
00:46:17,800 --> 00:46:20,680
the first time, the big thing
was I was over 50 and had

973
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:23,320
asthma.
So even if it went to the

974
00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,040
hospital stage, they were going
to write me off anyway because

975
00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:27,800
my chances of survival were next
to none.

976
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,640
Because over 50 with asthma, not
knowing how what a physically

977
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:34,680
fit specimen I was.
And they got money for every

978
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,520
person that died in the
hospital, right?

979
00:46:37,720 --> 00:46:39,200
Right, right.
Yeah.

980
00:46:39,240 --> 00:46:42,000
Crazy man.
Well, so, so this is my next

981
00:46:42,000 --> 00:46:45,520
adventure is I've really my life
has always been about helping

982
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:49,720
people and, and, and the longer
I'm on this journey, the more I

983
00:46:49,720 --> 00:46:52,920
believe in it.
So I actually own the website

984
00:46:52,920 --> 00:46:57,560
peptideguy.com and I'm two weeks
away from two weeks away from

985
00:46:57,560 --> 00:46:59,720
launching that.
I haven't launched it yet, but

986
00:46:59,720 --> 00:47:03,200
what it's going to be is it it
takes a different approach.

987
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:05,760
It's not a scientific approach,
it's an informational port

988
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,040
approach from someone who's
who's been.

989
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,440
Been there, done that.
Who's been using them?

990
00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:11,880
Who has been studying them?
Who?

991
00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:14,960
Who's had the trouble of
understanding how to titrate up?

992
00:47:14,960 --> 00:47:17,320
How to titrate down?
When to come off the cycle?

993
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:18,720
When not to come off the cycle.
How so?

994
00:47:18,720 --> 00:47:20,600
It's not a SO, so it's not a
continuous.

995
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:24,520
No.
Well, so it isn't because you're

996
00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,640
you have receptor sites that you
can burn out and you don't ever

997
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:28,960
want to burn out a receptor
sites.

998
00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:33,040
OK, now that we've explained
what it is and how it works, and

999
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:35,720
I challenge everybody to rewind
us, I'm going to listen to it

1000
00:47:35,720 --> 00:47:37,920
again.
You just told 2 incredible

1001
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:43,480
success stories of recovery from
horrible injuries that were not

1002
00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:47,920
related to Big Pharma, not
related to drugs that were not

1003
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:52,400
invasive to your life and a
complete 100% success story

1004
00:47:52,480 --> 00:47:56,280
right, right yes.
So now explain how that what you

1005
00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:59,800
call a cycle worked yes.
What is a peptide?

1006
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:01,920
Is it a pill?
Is it liquid?

1007
00:48:01,920 --> 00:48:03,120
Is it?
What is it?

1008
00:48:03,560 --> 00:48:05,880
So the peptides do come in oral
format.

1009
00:48:05,880 --> 00:48:09,200
The the problem is, is people
are scared of of injections and

1010
00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,000
even though the needles are very
small, they're the size of of

1011
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:14,720
diabetic needles.
OK, so let let let them

1012
00:48:14,720 --> 00:48:16,960
understand.
So is a is a peptide needle the

1013
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:18,480
same size as like a
testosterone?

1014
00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:22,560
No, okay, smaller, much smaller.
It's the size of a diabetic

1015
00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,480
needle, which is.
Like I'm not diabetic so I have

1016
00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:27,000
no idea.
So a testosterone needle will go

1017
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:30,160
down to like 21 gauge which is
like about a pencil lead,

1018
00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:34,560
whereas a diabetic needle is the
size of a hair.

1019
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,120
Okay, that explains it.
Thank you.

1020
00:48:37,200 --> 00:48:40,760
Yes.
So the problem with oral

1021
00:48:40,760 --> 00:48:44,160
peptides is that when you ingest
anything, the first thing it has

1022
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:47,280
to go through is your stomach,
your, your gastrointestinal,

1023
00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:51,160
sure, your juices.
So it it, it eliminates a lot of

1024
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:52,360
that stuff.
That's why when you take a lot

1025
00:48:52,360 --> 00:48:56,200
of vitamins, you're passing a
lot of the vitamins right

1026
00:48:56,200 --> 00:48:58,440
through because you're just not
getting a chance to, to, to

1027
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:01,440
allow them to, to be cycled into
your body.

1028
00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:05,040
So a lot of the stuff that we
take as which you should be

1029
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:06,960
still be taking your
multivitamins and everything.

1030
00:49:06,960 --> 00:49:10,760
I have a very good regiment, but
that only a portion of that's

1031
00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,760
getting absorbed.
So with peptides, if you take

1032
00:49:13,760 --> 00:49:17,560
oral peptides, the efficacy of
the peptides is lost in the

1033
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:21,480
stomach gastrointestinal.
So you do an injection and you

1034
00:49:21,480 --> 00:49:23,560
can inject it into the love
handle.

1035
00:49:23,600 --> 00:49:26,520
I inject into like if I have a
pain point, I inject right into

1036
00:49:26,560 --> 00:49:28,560
it.
And it depends on the peptide

1037
00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:29,800
and depends on what you're
trying to get.

1038
00:49:30,200 --> 00:49:34,640
There's peptides for skin, hair,
nails, scarring.

1039
00:49:34,840 --> 00:49:38,920
There's peptides for for
tissues, cellular regeneration,

1040
00:49:39,000 --> 00:49:41,240
weight loss.
A lot of people don't realize

1041
00:49:41,240 --> 00:49:44,440
that Wygovy, Ozempic,
tirzepatide, all the weight loss

1042
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:48,240
is a peptide and it's the first
one that they've actually FDA

1043
00:49:48,240 --> 00:49:50,520
approved because they found out
they can make money on them,

1044
00:49:50,800 --> 00:49:51,320
right?
Right.

1045
00:49:51,680 --> 00:49:54,360
So if they can make money on it
and then they can try to figure

1046
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:56,240
out how to force everyone out,
they're going to they're going

1047
00:49:56,240 --> 00:49:58,720
to do that.
Well, peptides are are like

1048
00:49:58,720 --> 00:50:00,440
vitamins.
You can get them online.

1049
00:50:00,440 --> 00:50:02,000
You can get them.
You just have to understand them

1050
00:50:02,000 --> 00:50:03,720
and make sure you're getting
from a reputable source.

1051
00:50:04,040 --> 00:50:05,600
So, so I'm going to stop you for
a second.

1052
00:50:05,680 --> 00:50:09,960
So Ozempic, we've heard of like
a ton of fallout from Ozempic

1053
00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,240
because it originally was used
for a diabetes, then it was used

1054
00:50:12,240 --> 00:50:14,320
for weight loss because a lot,
there's a lot of side effects

1055
00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,400
now that are coming to light,
kind of like with vaping, right?

1056
00:50:16,720 --> 00:50:18,920
Vaping is safer than cigarettes,
which we're all kind of called

1057
00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:21,800
BS on to begin with anyway.
But now that's become more and

1058
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:23,800
more apparent that it's the
harmful.

1059
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:25,760
Let me ask you.
Let me ask you a question,

1060
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:27,880
Chris.
Is eating harmful for you?

1061
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:29,880
Absolutely.
No, it's not.

1062
00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:32,000
It's how you eat.
Well, OK, yeah.

1063
00:50:32,080 --> 00:50:34,880
Yeah, let's use this.
You eat to live, right?

1064
00:50:35,240 --> 00:50:37,840
Sure.
So peptides are naturally

1065
00:50:37,840 --> 00:50:41,440
occurring in your body, but if
you are trying to lose weight

1066
00:50:41,480 --> 00:50:45,080
and you do nothing else right,
you're going to muscle waste.

1067
00:50:45,800 --> 00:50:47,880
Oh yes, exactly.
So a lot of times people are

1068
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:49,640
like, I'm going to take this
injection, it's going to be a

1069
00:50:49,640 --> 00:50:51,920
miracle, right?
They don't move, they don't

1070
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:53,400
change their diet, right?
They don't.

1071
00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,240
They don't take the necessary
precautions to allow them to

1072
00:50:56,240 --> 00:50:58,560
have the good.
Point too that is a.

1073
00:50:58,600 --> 00:51:01,760
Great put there.
If I drive my car, I can drive

1074
00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:03,520
my car.
If I go over the mileage on my

1075
00:51:03,520 --> 00:51:06,600
oil, I'm OK until I get to a
certain point, right?

1076
00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:07,120
Right.
Yep.

1077
00:51:07,120 --> 00:51:10,520
Well, the the fallout from these
drugs is because people don't

1078
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:13,880
want to put in the effort it
needs to to do what it needs to

1079
00:51:13,880 --> 00:51:17,440
be done.
Peptides are generally safe.

1080
00:51:17,440 --> 00:51:20,040
It's hard to OD on a peptide
because it's a protein.

1081
00:51:20,720 --> 00:51:23,160
It's not a medicine.
There's no it's, it's not a

1082
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:24,640
medicine.
If it was a medicine, it would

1083
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:25,960
be a different kind of
regulation.

1084
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,640
That's an important point that I
don't think we've distinguished,

1085
00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:32,160
so I'm glad you just said that.
For sure, people have this idea

1086
00:51:32,400 --> 00:51:35,920
that if if it was a medicine,
there would be no way to buy it

1087
00:51:36,600 --> 00:51:38,280
online.
And they're all over online

1088
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:40,840
because they're not for human
consumption.

1089
00:51:40,840 --> 00:51:43,680
They're not for human use.
And that's that's the bottom

1090
00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:45,080
line.
I would never tell anybody to

1091
00:51:45,080 --> 00:51:47,120
use them.
They're for research purposes

1092
00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:51,280
only, whatever.
But when you come down to the

1093
00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:56,840
Ozempic tirzepatide and the way
Govi Ozempic has muscle wasting,

1094
00:51:57,040 --> 00:52:00,040
if you don't give yourself the
necessary vitamins, the proteins

1095
00:52:00,080 --> 00:52:02,440
and do your movements, you're
going to have wasting.

1096
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:04,000
It's going to have problems,
absolutely.

1097
00:52:04,400 --> 00:52:08,520
And This is why it's important
for me as I'm posting on

1098
00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:12,000
Facebook, I'm getting blown up
on my DMS and I spent half the

1099
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,440
day answering that stuff because
people have so many questions

1100
00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:16,280
about this.
They heard this or they heard

1101
00:52:16,280 --> 00:52:18,920
this, they heard this.
That's why I created or I'm

1102
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:22,120
creating This site is I just
wanted to put a, a practical

1103
00:52:22,120 --> 00:52:25,040
approach to it that can answer
these questions and help people

1104
00:52:25,040 --> 00:52:27,600
get through because I believe
that if I can reach one person,

1105
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:33,880
I was 370 lbs.
I was a 44 shirt and a 44 pants

1106
00:52:33,880 --> 00:52:39,200
and a 5X shirt and with peptides
and good eating habits and

1107
00:52:39,200 --> 00:52:42,480
working out and moving right, I
changed my lifestyle and I'm now

1108
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,560
a 34 which I haven't been a 34
since I was in. 8th grade I was

1109
00:52:45,560 --> 00:52:49,840
300 hundred and 40.
Pound loss and I've maintained

1110
00:52:49,840 --> 00:52:52,760
it through all of the things
that I've gone through,

1111
00:52:52,760 --> 00:52:55,880
including death, holidays, son's
birth and I.

1112
00:52:55,880 --> 00:52:57,800
And I didn't work out for almost
a year after a little.

1113
00:52:57,800 --> 00:53:00,160
Yeah.
Yeah, I know we talked about

1114
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:01,440
that.
But again, so that makes more

1115
00:53:01,440 --> 00:53:03,240
sense then.
So it's not necessarily the drug

1116
00:53:03,240 --> 00:53:05,800
itself, it's the it's, it's
because people are lazy.

1117
00:53:07,160 --> 00:53:09,800
They expect results, they expect
results.

1118
00:53:10,080 --> 00:53:12,480
They want results in a can, they
want results in a pill, they

1119
00:53:12,480 --> 00:53:15,280
want results in an injection.
And the reality is, is that

1120
00:53:15,280 --> 00:53:17,880
these are tools.
A mechanic is only as good as

1121
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:19,880
this toolbox.
But if you have a Snap on

1122
00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,120
toolbox and you only use one
tool out of that toolbox, that

1123
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:23,400
doesn't make you a good
mechanic.

1124
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:25,600
Right.
If you give me that Snap On

1125
00:53:25,600 --> 00:53:29,560
toolbox, it'll collect dust most
of the time until you come over

1126
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:32,600
or somebody like my dad comes
over, my brother that actually

1127
00:53:32,600 --> 00:53:35,680
knows how to use tools because I
spent my formative years

1128
00:53:35,680 --> 00:53:38,040
learning to play a guitar.
So I understand what you're

1129
00:53:38,040 --> 00:53:42,480
talking about for sure.
I like your analogies and I I

1130
00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,640
like the alternative side of it.
I'd definitely like to talk to

1131
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:48,080
you more about that side of it.
Absolutely or.

1132
00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:50,400
We could do a whole another show
on peptides alone.

1133
00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:52,600
Oh my God.
This is just the.

1134
00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:56,040
Alternative once once you once
you get the peptide guy up and

1135
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:58,120
running, we'll have you back on
and we'll just we'll just talk

1136
00:53:58,120 --> 00:53:59,880
about the different types of
peptides and.

1137
00:54:00,520 --> 00:54:02,560
Yeah, I thought we were going to
talk about pools for an hour and

1138
00:54:02,560 --> 00:54:05,680
a half, which was totally cool
with me, and then we went down

1139
00:54:05,680 --> 00:54:08,920
what we like to call a squirrel
moment, and it's like, holy holy

1140
00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:10,560
shit, Brian Morris is cool as
fuck.

1141
00:54:11,240 --> 00:54:12,080
Right.
Well, yeah, well.

1142
00:54:12,080 --> 00:54:14,240
That's why I bucked.
I've been bugging him for I

1143
00:54:14,240 --> 00:54:17,120
love, go ahead.
I love the pool business.

1144
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:21,080
But I'll be honest with you that
the thing I love even more is

1145
00:54:21,080 --> 00:54:22,720
watching it.
So there's two journeys that

1146
00:54:22,720 --> 00:54:26,040
people are in life that are on.
They're on a transformative

1147
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:28,880
journey, which is what I'm on,
or they're on a preventative

1148
00:54:28,880 --> 00:54:32,680
journey, right as we get past
our 30s, we have to make that

1149
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:34,640
decision.
Are we on a preventative journey

1150
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:37,400
or transformative journey?
Every using the the bullshit

1151
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:40,080
word biohacking.
Yeah, I call it bio

1152
00:54:40,080 --> 00:54:42,000
optimization.
Forget the biohacking, I'm not

1153
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:43,920
hacking shit.
And here's the reason why.

1154
00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:45,920
Our bodies already know what
they're doing.

1155
00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:47,880
It's perfection from the start,
right?

1156
00:54:48,200 --> 00:54:50,760
And that's it.
So there's I have a doctor

1157
00:54:50,760 --> 00:54:54,040
friend of mine, he became a
medical doctor because his

1158
00:54:54,040 --> 00:54:56,280
family had a history of
Parkinson's, dementia and

1159
00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:59,160
Alzheimer's.
He started becoming a doctor 8

1160
00:54:59,160 --> 00:55:01,560
years old because he saw what it
did to his family.

1161
00:55:01,560 --> 00:55:05,480
So he spent his entire life
learning the medical profession

1162
00:55:05,560 --> 00:55:07,200
to be able to prevent that in
himself.

1163
00:55:07,320 --> 00:55:10,160
So he's been on a preventative
journey since he was 8 years

1164
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:10,880
old.
Wow man.

1165
00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:14,520
I've been on the ups and downs.
I've been at the top of my

1166
00:55:14,520 --> 00:55:16,560
sport.
I've been at the lowest point

1167
00:55:16,560 --> 00:55:19,480
health wise where at 370 I was
pre diabetic.

1168
00:55:19,880 --> 00:55:22,040
I was getting out of bed, my
feet would swell up, I'd have to

1169
00:55:22,040 --> 00:55:24,240
crawl on my knees to the
bathroom until the blood started

1170
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:26,600
moving.
I was embarrassed but I didn't

1171
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:28,920
let people know that you know,
and I just do my thing.

1172
00:55:28,920 --> 00:55:31,720
So I'm on a transformative
journey but the transformative

1173
00:55:31,720 --> 00:55:34,400
journey for me is almost done.
And now I'm on the preventative

1174
00:55:34,400 --> 00:55:36,480
journey because I want to have
more time with my son.

1175
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,720
But you know what?
People need to hear that first

1176
00:55:38,800 --> 00:55:42,000
story that you said before.
You said I'm on a transformative

1177
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:43,760
journey.
There is so many people

1178
00:55:43,760 --> 00:55:47,600
listening to this right now.
That might be 300, four, 100

1179
00:55:47,600 --> 00:55:48,800
lbs.
And they're like, there's no

1180
00:55:48,800 --> 00:55:51,040
hope for me, right?
This guy's not talking about me.

1181
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:53,680
You were that guy.
Yeah, and by the and by the way.

1182
00:55:53,720 --> 00:55:55,280
I am that guy.
And by the way.

1183
00:55:55,360 --> 00:56:00,360
If I, if I slip my, my, my body
type, I've always been big.

1184
00:56:01,000 --> 00:56:04,720
I, I, I've just managed to use
it in, in different ways.

1185
00:56:04,720 --> 00:56:08,680
So like when I threw
competitively, I was, I was 350.

1186
00:56:09,040 --> 00:56:11,560
I was a lot healthier.
But then when I got injured, I

1187
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,720
would drop down to, you know, I,
I, I carried weight between 260

1188
00:56:14,720 --> 00:56:18,280
and 290 as my normal weight.
And now I'm carrying that 2:30

1189
00:56:18,280 --> 00:56:21,080
to 2:45 as my normal weight.
And it's weird.

1190
00:56:21,400 --> 00:56:23,880
When I went in to, to, to put on
a pair of pants and the guy

1191
00:56:23,880 --> 00:56:25,640
goes, what size?
You guys said I need a 36.

1192
00:56:25,640 --> 00:56:27,880
He goes, no, you need a 34.
I said, son, I haven't worn a

1193
00:56:28,000 --> 00:56:29,800
30.
And I use the word son because

1194
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,560
I'm. 50 now.
I said I haven't worn a 34 since

1195
00:56:32,560 --> 00:56:33,960
I was in 8th grade.
He goes, I'll tell you what, if

1196
00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:36,320
you put these on and they don't
fit, I'll buy your pants for

1197
00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:38,640
you.
I put them on and I gave out the

1198
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:42,560
loudest woo woo in the in the I
walked out and I was like kick

1199
00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:44,520
me out.
I'm wearing a pair of 30 fours,

1200
00:56:44,720 --> 00:56:49,000
baby.
I was in 8th grade and I was 188

1201
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:53,000
lbs and learn a 34 in 8th grade.
That was the last time I put on

1202
00:56:53,000 --> 00:56:54,360
a pair of 30 fours.
Yeah.

1203
00:56:54,360 --> 00:56:56,400
So when so when Mike mentioned
earlier the amount of people

1204
00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:59,680
listen to the show, we're in 19
countries now, 20 O20, I'm

1205
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:04,480
sorry, 120 countries now.
So you know, we're not our reach

1206
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:08,280
is as far which is cool.
So you that part of your life,

1207
00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:11,880
that is something definitely
when we have you back on, you

1208
00:57:11,880 --> 00:57:13,760
know, we can kind of touch
because we've kind of Mike and

1209
00:57:13,760 --> 00:57:16,400
Mike knows my story and stuff.
You know too, that I was at the

1210
00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:19,320
time what, when I was drinking
probably about two 30s, you

1211
00:57:19,320 --> 00:57:21,680
know, and then before the next
church is about 2:16 and then

1212
00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:25,440
you know, so where approach, our
end game is the same, but our

1213
00:57:25,440 --> 00:57:27,360
approach is different just
because it wasn't the knowledge

1214
00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:30,640
that we have now with everything
that's social media wise because

1215
00:57:30,640 --> 00:57:32,880
that's one of the benefits
technologies, learning all we

1216
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,600
can learn from.
Well, the cool thing for me is I

1217
00:57:36,600 --> 00:57:40,840
listen to this kind of stuff all
the time, and to meet somebody

1218
00:57:40,840 --> 00:57:43,880
who has done the same thing and
then applied it to their life,

1219
00:57:43,880 --> 00:57:47,480
you went one step further than I
did in that you had some serious

1220
00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:51,280
injuries that you needed to try
something different, right?

1221
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,920
I don't want to go the route
that everybody else goes.

1222
00:57:53,920 --> 00:57:55,640
So let's try this and see if it
works.

1223
00:57:55,640 --> 00:57:59,680
And holy crap, not only did it
work, it worked either twice as

1224
00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:04,640
fast or 70 or 80% faster in some
cases.

1225
00:58:04,640 --> 00:58:08,320
So not only is it worth trying,
it works right.

1226
00:58:08,720 --> 00:58:12,200
Well, it goes back to this too
is right before, well, the show

1227
00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:14,600
started.
I just finished another session

1228
00:58:14,600 --> 00:58:18,880
of hyperbaric oxygen and, and
I'm a big believer in oxygen

1229
00:58:18,880 --> 00:58:20,960
therapy.
I started using something called

1230
00:58:20,960 --> 00:58:23,200
EWAT, which is exercise oxygen
therapy.

1231
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:25,280
You'll see it in the in, in
movies where they're on a

1232
00:58:25,280 --> 00:58:27,240
treadmill or something.
They have a mask on and they're,

1233
00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:30,440
they're getting well.
We, we, as we walk and breathe,

1234
00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:32,600
we're breathing 18 to 22%
oxygen.

1235
00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:34,880
So when you get a chance to
hyperoxygenate your body, you

1236
00:58:34,880 --> 00:58:38,080
can actually infiltrate your
body with oxygen and push it to

1237
00:58:38,080 --> 00:58:41,480
that 90% under hyperbaric.
You're at 100% under pressure

1238
00:58:42,040 --> 00:58:45,440
and what that does is that
actually fills your body, not

1239
00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:49,040
just your, your, your, your
breath, but your veins, your

1240
00:58:49,040 --> 00:58:52,240
blood, your bones, your skin.
It just hyperoxygenates

1241
00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:53,800
everything.
So it allows things to move

1242
00:58:53,800 --> 00:58:54,880
better.
So when you're doing, what do?

1243
00:58:54,880 --> 00:58:56,000
You feel like when you're done
with.

1244
00:58:56,160 --> 00:58:57,400
That.
What's that?

1245
00:58:57,680 --> 00:58:59,400
What do you feel like when
you're done with that?

1246
00:58:59,920 --> 00:59:02,320
Amazing.
Like 20.

1247
00:59:02,320 --> 00:59:06,280
Years young, like 20 years old.
Well, no, it's it's it's a

1248
00:59:06,280 --> 00:59:10,040
clarity because your OK your
body is so well oxygenated that

1249
00:59:10,040 --> 00:59:13,160
things are just firing
differently like my brain over

1250
00:59:13,160 --> 00:59:15,520
the last.
Sentences are firing quicker.

1251
00:59:15,520 --> 00:59:16,640
Yep.
OK.

1252
00:59:16,640 --> 00:59:22,880
And, and so when you're doing
regenerative therapies like like

1253
00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:26,800
stem cells or regenerative
factors or peptides, because it

1254
00:59:26,920 --> 00:59:30,160
helps with the circulation, this
stuff getting to where it needs

1255
00:59:30,160 --> 00:59:31,520
to go.
Now, the first thing that it

1256
00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:34,520
gets attacked when you use
peptides is places of

1257
00:59:34,520 --> 00:59:38,720
inflammation.
So that's the idea of like the

1258
00:59:38,720 --> 00:59:43,960
BPC 157TB500, which is a lot of
people are using for recovery is

1259
00:59:43,960 --> 00:59:46,240
that actually works on
inflammation.

1260
00:59:46,240 --> 00:59:49,040
So it actually helps to reduce
those, those pain points.

1261
00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,800
And again, our body is being
told we, our, our brain has no

1262
00:59:52,800 --> 00:59:55,000
pain receptors.
If I cut open your head and I

1263
00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:56,960
worked on your brain, I would
not have to give you pain.

1264
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:58,840
Medication, well, they did it
back in the day.

1265
00:59:58,840 --> 01:00:01,400
They used to.
They did lobotomies on people.

1266
01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:03,320
Correct before.
They knew that wasn't, you know,

1267
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,240
that's really correct.
Let me ask you this.

1268
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:08,400
Chris and I both have the same
injury, right?

1269
01:00:08,400 --> 01:00:12,800
We have degenerative disc
disease in our neck, so you know

1270
01:00:12,800 --> 01:00:14,440
the bones are starting to rub
together.

1271
01:00:14,440 --> 01:00:16,520
What does that do for something
like that?

1272
01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:18,640
Well, it's going to, first of
all, it's going to reduce

1273
01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:20,280
inflammation.
It's going to help to actually

1274
01:00:20,280 --> 01:00:22,160
deal with the the tissues around
it.

1275
01:00:22,920 --> 01:00:25,120
You're going to need to go the
one step further into the

1276
01:00:25,120 --> 01:00:27,320
regenerative factors and
actually have regenerative

1277
01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:30,960
factors injected into the points
like my knees are osteoarthritis

1278
01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:32,360
and that's what I've been
treating on those.

1279
01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:36,640
And then do intravenous.
But then what you'll do is your

1280
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:40,880
peptide stack will actually help
with inflammation, the the

1281
01:00:40,880 --> 01:00:44,720
ability of fluid to move and
actually healing and delivering

1282
01:00:44,920 --> 01:00:47,440
the blood to those areas that
help those tissues.

1283
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:51,200
Nice, so it's kind of like it's
the same kind of concept as stem

1284
01:00:51,200 --> 01:00:54,640
cells, but peptides are more
available than the stem cells

1285
01:00:54,640 --> 01:00:56,920
are because isn't stem cells.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but

1286
01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:59,800
isn't that something you inject
to help regenerate and, you

1287
01:01:00,160 --> 01:01:03,000
know, repair?
Stem cells can become anything.

1288
01:01:03,240 --> 01:01:07,760
So, so you can stem cell, that's
why we call them regenerative

1289
01:01:07,760 --> 01:01:09,640
factors.
They don't, they don't have a

1290
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:11,440
personality.
So essentially wherever you

1291
01:01:11,440 --> 01:01:14,640
inject them, they go to the
places where you need them and

1292
01:01:14,800 --> 01:01:17,160
then they take on the
personality of like your

1293
01:01:17,160 --> 01:01:19,720
cartilage or they take on the
personality of a of a blood

1294
01:01:19,720 --> 01:01:22,160
vessel.
Or that's why they found that

1295
01:01:22,160 --> 01:01:25,000
they can regrow somebody's ear
inside somebody's stomach.

1296
01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:27,240
Because if you give it the right
signalling, you can actually

1297
01:01:27,240 --> 01:01:29,680
grow something because they
could become anything.

1298
01:01:29,680 --> 01:01:31,200
That's what stem cells can
become.

1299
01:01:31,960 --> 01:01:34,240
We become people from stem
cells, right?

1300
01:01:34,280 --> 01:01:39,920
Peptides are proteins that aid
in the, the, the way your body

1301
01:01:39,920 --> 01:01:42,520
processes.
So it's, it's, it's just, it's

1302
01:01:42,520 --> 01:01:45,120
just an aid for that.
And a lot of them are short.

1303
01:01:45,160 --> 01:01:47,520
They're, they're short lived.
So they have a very short half

1304
01:01:47,520 --> 01:01:50,800
life, which is why you take them
on a certain like I take a a

1305
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:52,880
certain things I'm.
Glad you described it like that

1306
01:01:52,880 --> 01:01:55,240
because now it makes way more
sense to me.

1307
01:01:55,680 --> 01:01:57,080
Yep.
So I guess.

1308
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:02,040
So a peptide cycle would be what
like like 7 days on five?

1309
01:02:02,040 --> 01:02:03,280
Days we never.
Finished that, Yeah.

1310
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:04,640
Yeah.
Well, what's different?

1311
01:02:04,640 --> 01:02:07,040
For every peptide, so there's
some stuff that I'm going to

1312
01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,080
take for 8 weeks and then I'll
take 8 weeks off.

1313
01:02:09,080 --> 01:02:11,160
There's some stuff I'm going to
take five days a week, take two

1314
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:12,880
days off.
I'll do that for six to 10

1315
01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:15,520
weeks.
It depends on what my needs are.

1316
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:20,600
And this is what's crucial is
that there's no cut and dry for

1317
01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,400
every single person.
This is something you have to

1318
01:02:23,400 --> 01:02:26,240
learn your body.
OK, so if we, so if I started

1319
01:02:26,240 --> 01:02:29,760
the peptides for my, my
degenerating neck, right, my

1320
01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:32,360
stuff.
So it's one of those things you

1321
01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:35,000
just kind of kind of got to do
it and and see how you feel to

1322
01:02:35,000 --> 01:02:38,360
understand what the cycle is.
Well, there's a baseline.

1323
01:02:38,520 --> 01:02:40,720
OK.
And, and I could build you a, a

1324
01:02:40,720 --> 01:02:44,680
stack, OK, and then tell you how
to do it for the next six

1325
01:02:44,680 --> 01:02:46,600
months.
I'll tell you when to stop, when

1326
01:02:46,600 --> 01:02:48,720
to start, what to take at
certain times.

1327
01:02:49,520 --> 01:02:52,240
They're not anabolic steroids,
they're not medicines, they're

1328
01:02:52,240 --> 01:02:54,880
not any of that stuff.
So protein going to have is

1329
01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:57,160
protein when we, when we stop
taking them, it's called a

1330
01:02:57,160 --> 01:02:58,960
washout period.
Essentially what it's doing,

1331
01:02:58,960 --> 01:03:02,040
it's allowing those receptor
sites to calm down, not be

1332
01:03:02,040 --> 01:03:04,680
infiltrated so that when you
restart again that they can

1333
01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:08,040
absorb all that stuff again.
Because we build up an immunity

1334
01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:10,120
just like we do.
If we take something over and

1335
01:03:10,120 --> 01:03:12,200
over again, we're going to build
up an immunity towards it,

1336
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:14,080
right?
So that's what we're trying to

1337
01:03:14,080 --> 01:03:17,200
avoid is ever building up an
immunity towards it.

1338
01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:20,280
Now we're going to see, just so
you guys know, in the next 10

1339
01:03:20,280 --> 01:03:23,720
years, we're going to see things
happen on a cellular level at a

1340
01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:26,720
rate that we've never seen.
They're going to unlock certain

1341
01:03:26,720 --> 01:03:30,000
things like the ability of the
body to continually build muscle

1342
01:03:30,160 --> 01:03:33,120
that's going to make anabolic
steroids look like a 1970s Pinto

1343
01:03:33,120 --> 01:03:34,160
sitting on a shelf.
Wow.

1344
01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:38,680
So where we're heading with this
stuff is so far advanced.

1345
01:03:38,680 --> 01:03:41,720
This is just the opportunity now
to get people on that on that

1346
01:03:41,720 --> 01:03:44,160
journey and and start to feel
good about themselves.

1347
01:03:44,360 --> 01:03:47,320
At 50, I feel better now than I
did in my 30s.

1348
01:03:47,320 --> 01:03:50,520
I'm benching over 3. 100 that
from so many people now and I

1349
01:03:50,520 --> 01:03:51,880
want to feel that same way
right.

1350
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:55,880
I mean, I'm not like decrepit,
but having Chris will tell you

1351
01:03:56,600 --> 01:04:00,240
this neck it, it messes with
things you want to do a lot of

1352
01:04:00,240 --> 01:04:02,760
times, right?
It makes you hesitate to do

1353
01:04:02,760 --> 01:04:06,320
certain things for sure.
And after an injury, like when I

1354
01:04:06,320 --> 01:04:10,480
went to go throw on Saturday, my
first few throws was is my knee

1355
01:04:10,480 --> 01:04:12,960
going to hold up well?
After I got past the first few

1356
01:04:12,960 --> 01:04:16,880
throws, I'm like, hey, I'm good.
My 5th throw I threw better than

1357
01:04:16,880 --> 01:04:19,720
I did six weeks before my injury
and I haven't thrown in a meet

1358
01:04:19,720 --> 01:04:21,480
in six weeks.
I haven't thrown in a practice,

1359
01:04:21,480 --> 01:04:25,120
a full throw and then on my 6th
throw I blow up my hernia.

1360
01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:28,840
But I'm like, OK, go get it
fixed and come back next season.

1361
01:04:28,840 --> 01:04:32,720
I'm not at work.
I'm 48 hours post surgery right

1362
01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:34,480
now.
So if you look at this, this is

1363
01:04:34,480 --> 01:04:36,800
not me.
I'm I'm not like sitting in

1364
01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:39,040
there sulking about it.
I went to work the next day.

1365
01:04:39,280 --> 01:04:41,120
Yeah, I'm, I went right to
therapy.

1366
01:04:41,120 --> 01:04:42,920
I'm ready to go.
And here I am talking to you.

1367
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:45,360
I'm just excited as I.
Will be Yeah, when I texted him

1368
01:04:45,360 --> 01:04:46,800
earlier, yeah, I texted him the
other day.

1369
01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:48,880
I was like, hey, dude, I know
you know, all things considered,

1370
01:04:48,880 --> 01:04:50,600
you still down for days?
Like, absolutely.

1371
01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:53,160
I threw myself, I'll throw
myself under the bus.

1372
01:04:53,160 --> 01:04:55,280
Before we recorded the show, I
told him.

1373
01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:57,400
I said I'd be laying on the
couch and somebody would be

1374
01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:00,520
waiting on me hand and foot, and
I'd be crying like a Sissy

1375
01:05:00,520 --> 01:05:04,360
because you're going the modern
route, right?

1376
01:05:04,360 --> 01:05:07,960
So I think you just proved that.
Here's a guy who 48 hours ago

1377
01:05:07,960 --> 01:05:11,480
was literally having surgery on
one of the worst hernias anybody

1378
01:05:11,480 --> 01:05:14,440
could ever have, and now he's
sitting here and he's got all

1379
01:05:14,440 --> 01:05:16,160
the energy in the world talking
to us.

1380
01:05:16,440 --> 01:05:18,960
And you're not on painkillers?
I was going to say that.

1381
01:05:18,960 --> 01:05:22,000
Yeah, not on painkillers at all.
Nope, I haven't taken a single

1382
01:05:22,000 --> 01:05:24,120
thing.
So they gave me they gave me

1383
01:05:24,120 --> 01:05:27,520
morphine at the hospital and
then they gave, they shot me up

1384
01:05:27,520 --> 01:05:31,280
with one shot of fentanyl.
Then they gave me some, some D

1385
01:05:31,280 --> 01:05:33,320
thing.
I don't remember what it was.

1386
01:05:33,960 --> 01:05:36,360
And I and I was like, they gave
me 3 prescriptions to come home

1387
01:05:36,360 --> 01:05:37,360
when they're sitting on the
counter.

1388
01:05:37,360 --> 01:05:38,520
They haven't even come out of
the bags.

1389
01:05:38,800 --> 01:05:41,280
I just, I don't believe in that.
I don't even take aspirin.

1390
01:05:41,320 --> 01:05:43,520
I I don't take cough medicines.
I don't take aspirins.

1391
01:05:43,520 --> 01:05:45,640
I don't believe in that.
The other thing is, is that

1392
01:05:45,840 --> 01:05:47,680
narcotics have a tendency to
block you up.

1393
01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:51,840
So for the last two days I've
been just like waiting to get

1394
01:05:51,840 --> 01:05:55,480
past the morphine shots from
Saturday 'cause I'm like the

1395
01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:57,760
Dilaudid is what they gave me.
That Dilaudid was the only stuff

1396
01:05:57,760 --> 01:05:59,160
that even worked, which was
crazy.

1397
01:05:59,160 --> 01:06:00,080
So I.
Couldn't think of it.

1398
01:06:00,120 --> 01:06:01,680
I had it on the tip of my
tongue.

1399
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:03,680
Yeah, me too.
And I'll agree with you, the

1400
01:06:03,680 --> 01:06:06,200
narcotics block you up.
Because I'll tell you, when I

1401
01:06:06,200 --> 01:06:10,160
told my recovery story, it
blocked me up so bad that I was

1402
01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:15,920
suffering from psychosis, right?
So my body was just in chaos on

1403
01:06:15,920 --> 01:06:19,520
a level I can't even describe.
I was just next to death, but in

1404
01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:22,120
the middle of all that I was
losing my mind at the same time.

1405
01:06:22,120 --> 01:06:23,720
So it was a whole lot of fun
during that.

1406
01:06:24,080 --> 01:06:26,880
Well, the weird thing is this
doctors and, and, and like your

1407
01:06:26,880 --> 01:06:29,080
dad, like he believed in
conventional medicine, because

1408
01:06:29,080 --> 01:06:32,000
that's ingrained in this from
from day number one, right?

1409
01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:34,120
Like day number one, it's
doctors.

1410
01:06:34,120 --> 01:06:36,040
Doctors know best.
Doctors are the best, right?

1411
01:06:36,040 --> 01:06:37,160
You go to the doctor for
physicals.

1412
01:06:37,160 --> 01:06:40,560
You go for you have a cold, you
have a flu, you know you have

1413
01:06:40,560 --> 01:06:43,040
pain, all that kind of stuff.
It's all we're always going and

1414
01:06:43,040 --> 01:06:45,760
gravitating towards medical
professionals because they're

1415
01:06:45,760 --> 01:06:48,320
the ones that have degrees.
There's the one that went the

1416
01:06:48,320 --> 01:06:49,520
school and all that kind of
jazz.

1417
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:51,120
They're.
And what did we talk about with

1418
01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:54,680
Peter from Australia?
There's two countries on Earth

1419
01:06:54,680 --> 01:06:58,120
that allow pharmaceutical
pharmaceuticals to advertise on

1420
01:06:58,120 --> 01:07:00,120
TV. the United States.
Yep.

1421
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:01,400
And new.
Zealand and New Zealand?

1422
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:02,920
Or was it Australia?
New Zealand.

1423
01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:04,160
The only two.
That's it.

1424
01:07:04,160 --> 01:07:07,520
The only two in the entire world
that allow pharmaceutical ads.

1425
01:07:07,520 --> 01:07:11,960
So the reason I say that is
because every day it's inundated

1426
01:07:11,960 --> 01:07:15,120
in you that Brian said it
earlier, you need this for this,

1427
01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:17,520
you need this for that.
You need this for the other

1428
01:07:17,520 --> 01:07:20,920
thing.
If you're watching regular TV

1429
01:07:20,920 --> 01:07:22,200
like every other commercial, is
a.

1430
01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:24,280
Drug, right?
Well, and think about in the 50s

1431
01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:25,760
when the TV first started coming
out, right?

1432
01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:28,560
What they advertise Geritol.
I don't know what the hell

1433
01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:31,040
Geritol is for, but right,
Remember that you see those like

1434
01:07:31,040 --> 01:07:34,800
Geritol, you know, a spoonful,
you know, and Mary Poppins and

1435
01:07:34,800 --> 01:07:37,120
Mary Poppins, a spoonful of
sugar helps the medicine go

1436
01:07:37,120 --> 01:07:39,000
down.
It's in a Disney movie that is a

1437
01:07:39,000 --> 01:07:41,840
classic.
So it's all about medicate,

1438
01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:43,680
medicate, medicate, medicate.
And I'm a guilt.

1439
01:07:43,680 --> 01:07:45,280
I'm guilty.
Of it and look at what we do.

1440
01:07:45,720 --> 01:07:48,160
What do we do?
We start giving kids oh, you

1441
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:50,200
have a headache, we start giving
them aspirin and then we

1442
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:52,640
diagnose these kids because we
want to put them in boxes.

1443
01:07:53,120 --> 01:07:56,280
You know, we start diagnosing if
I was in today's world, I would

1444
01:07:56,280 --> 01:07:59,920
have been diagnosed ADHD back
and I would have been medicated

1445
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:03,800
and that would have stifled
everything that I grew up to be

1446
01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:06,320
the person I am.
But we start giving these kids

1447
01:08:06,320 --> 01:08:09,880
medications with altars and then
not just that, we give them all

1448
01:08:09,880 --> 01:08:14,280
this processed bullshit that we
put into them from from the the

1449
01:08:14,280 --> 01:08:16,399
cereals on up.
We've been very fortunate with

1450
01:08:16,399 --> 01:08:20,399
little B that Jess and I have a
very strict understanding of of

1451
01:08:20,399 --> 01:08:21,520
what we're giving him.
He's eaten.

1452
01:08:21,520 --> 01:08:24,640
No, he's eaten no cereals.
He's had no baby foods.

1453
01:08:24,760 --> 01:08:27,720
He gets no formulas.
He still breastfeeds and instead

1454
01:08:27,720 --> 01:08:30,160
of juices and waters, he gets
electrolytes.

1455
01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:33,359
And I have a pedia version of
electrolytes that he gets three

1456
01:08:33,359 --> 01:08:36,359
times a day and he loves it.
But he will never get juice.

1457
01:08:36,359 --> 01:08:39,160
He doesn't drink milk.
He drinks very, very, very, very

1458
01:08:39,160 --> 01:08:40,760
little milk, if he gets any at
all.

1459
01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:44,399
But his process his his food.
He started eating solid food at

1460
01:08:44,439 --> 01:08:46,520
8 months.
He was eating avocado, he was

1461
01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:48,600
eating a steak, he was eating
lamb.

1462
01:08:48,800 --> 01:08:52,560
He was eating anything that we
could that we would make that

1463
01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:54,399
would be wholesome, that would
be.

1464
01:08:54,720 --> 01:08:56,680
But he has not gotten anything
processed.

1465
01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:59,120
He gets no, none of this
bullshit cereal because it's

1466
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:00,840
fortified with iron.
And that was the first thing

1467
01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:02,479
that all you need to get him
iron fortified cereal.

1468
01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:03,920
Now it's trash.
Yeah.

1469
01:09:04,160 --> 01:09:06,399
It's trash and.
And my little dude's a bad ass.

1470
01:09:06,479 --> 01:09:09,120
Right now I love.
Right and see, and, and here's

1471
01:09:09,120 --> 01:09:11,399
the here's here's the thing
about Brian, cause I've known

1472
01:09:11,399 --> 01:09:12,880
him for so long.
There were times when I'd be

1473
01:09:12,880 --> 01:09:15,920
with Brian and we'd stop at at
McDonald's and he would get, you

1474
01:09:15,920 --> 01:09:18,520
know, 4 big marks, 3 diet Cokes,
6 fries.

1475
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:22,560
So that shows you the
transformation of not only who

1476
01:09:22,560 --> 01:09:24,359
he has an individual, but just
the life.

1477
01:09:24,359 --> 01:09:26,640
Because I don't call it like you
said, biohacking instead of

1478
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:29,680
biohacking is bad
bioengineering, right Bio.

1479
01:09:29,680 --> 01:09:32,080
Optimization.
Right, So my thing is, it's not

1480
01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:34,520
a diet, it's a lifestyle.
Diets don't work.

1481
01:09:34,600 --> 01:09:38,160
Lifestyles do Change your life,
change your lifestyle and and

1482
01:09:38,160 --> 01:09:40,040
you'll be better for it at the
end of the day.

1483
01:09:40,319 --> 01:09:42,800
So like you said, instead of
biohacking, it's bioengineering.

1484
01:09:42,800 --> 01:09:46,479
It's the same concept, right?
So it's what you put in is, is

1485
01:09:47,120 --> 01:09:51,120
how you feel when like Nick and
I stopped breads, bad starches,

1486
01:09:51,120 --> 01:09:52,240
crackers.
I've cheated a little bit on

1487
01:09:52,240 --> 01:09:55,360
crackers because you know, but
and we've had a couple little

1488
01:09:55,360 --> 01:09:57,320
slip UPS.
Everything in moderation.

1489
01:09:57,400 --> 01:09:59,560
Right on the starches and the
tortillas and stuff, but.

1490
01:10:00,120 --> 01:10:02,320
It's not a slip up, Chris.
It's life, man.

1491
01:10:02,440 --> 01:10:06,240
I know, I know, but you know,
it's so and it's we've, I've

1492
01:10:06,240 --> 01:10:08,480
noticed a difference because my
neck would, I would, it would

1493
01:10:08,480 --> 01:10:10,240
tangle and go numb and stuff
like that.

1494
01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:11,880
So the part up there.
But now I'm still trying to

1495
01:10:11,880 --> 01:10:14,720
figure out what's what's the
middle of the back pain and

1496
01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,480
where that coming from, which I
think it's a direct result of

1497
01:10:17,480 --> 01:10:18,640
the neck.
It's just I don't have the

1498
01:10:18,640 --> 01:10:20,960
inflammation because I stopped a
little bad starches and stuff.

1499
01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:24,360
So the whole pep type thing,
which I've been super interested

1500
01:10:24,360 --> 01:10:27,200
in and I had no idea how deep
you dove into it.

1501
01:10:27,200 --> 01:10:30,280
I mean, you showed me Nikki and
I your regiment a couple weeks

1502
01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:32,920
ago as far as supplements and
peptides and all kind of jazz.

1503
01:10:32,920 --> 01:10:36,000
So I knew you knew had some
understanding of it.

1504
01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:40,920
But this is just like.
I spend, I spend 2 to 3 hours a

1505
01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:43,560
day in research and that
research I've surrounded myself

1506
01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:46,920
with doctors that are in this
field to the point where when I

1507
01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:49,760
came home from the, from the
hospital, went to hyperbaric.

1508
01:10:49,760 --> 01:10:53,560
I was posting online, I had a
doctor here doing regenerative

1509
01:10:53,560 --> 01:10:55,720
factors because he was leaving
town the next day.

1510
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:58,320
He drove to my house an hour and
20 minutes to do regenerative

1511
01:10:58,320 --> 01:11:01,800
factors for me at 8:00 at night
that that is unheard of.

1512
01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:03,720
And he just said, hey, I saw
that you were in the hospital.

1513
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:05,600
Let's get you some regenerative
factors before I leave for

1514
01:11:05,600 --> 01:11:08,640
Florida.
And The thing is, is once you

1515
01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:11,360
know, you talk about putting
yourself with the right people.

1516
01:11:11,680 --> 01:11:14,800
It's about running yourself with
the ability to, to, to have this

1517
01:11:14,800 --> 01:11:16,640
knowledge.
So if I have a question, I can

1518
01:11:16,640 --> 01:11:18,880
get an answer.
Here's the crazy part.

1519
01:11:19,040 --> 01:11:21,680
I deal with medical doctors that
study this stuff all the time

1520
01:11:21,680 --> 01:11:24,520
that come to me for answers for
things because I've actually

1521
01:11:24,520 --> 01:11:26,680
gone deeper in certain subjects
than they have.

1522
01:11:26,920 --> 01:11:30,040
Nice, that's awesome.
That is really cool.

1523
01:11:30,080 --> 01:11:33,720
I, I learned so much and I'm
just sitting here thinking, I

1524
01:11:33,720 --> 01:11:35,840
learned just enough to know I
got to go back and listen to it

1525
01:11:35,840 --> 01:11:39,160
again, right?
So I'm like Chris, I've been

1526
01:11:39,160 --> 01:11:43,520
super interested in it and I've
heard just bits and pieces from

1527
01:11:43,520 --> 01:11:45,800
different doctors.
Like I think Doctor Rhonda

1528
01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,160
Patrick talks about it a lot,
but she only talks about a

1529
01:11:48,160 --> 01:11:51,840
little portion.
You just did a deep dive on what

1530
01:11:51,840 --> 01:11:54,760
they are, how they're used.
I understand them way better now

1531
01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:58,400
and I'm super curious about
talking to you and trying

1532
01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:00,320
something like that to just give
it a shot.

1533
01:12:00,320 --> 01:12:02,600
You know what, What can it hurt?
It's a protein.

1534
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:05,800
And if it helps, yay.
You know, now I can do things

1535
01:12:05,800 --> 01:12:08,200
that I wanted to do that I have
been putting off, right?

1536
01:12:08,800 --> 01:12:11,640
Well, here's the number one
thing that when I post, I post

1537
01:12:11,640 --> 01:12:14,480
online, I post about my journey
and I and I just do it because

1538
01:12:15,200 --> 01:12:17,000
I'm excited.
And like I said, if I can reach

1539
01:12:17,000 --> 01:12:20,640
one person, I have people that
are going to the oxygen Wellness

1540
01:12:20,640 --> 01:12:23,560
clinic where I go now because
they saw what I'm going through

1541
01:12:23,560 --> 01:12:26,000
and now they're doing therapies
and they're sending me messages.

1542
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:27,600
Hey, thank you for posting that.
Right?

1543
01:12:27,600 --> 01:12:29,360
So that's why I post as much as
I do.

1544
01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:32,400
But here's the one thing that
that comes up every single time.

1545
01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:34,680
What's it cost?
And all I can tell people is,

1546
01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:37,520
what's it cost to be sick?
Yeah.

1547
01:12:37,920 --> 01:12:41,720
OK, I did it there.
There's things cost money, but I

1548
01:12:41,720 --> 01:12:44,200
would rather not be tied up in
bed.

1549
01:12:44,600 --> 01:12:47,960
I would rather not be in pain.
I'd rather not be be aching and

1550
01:12:47,960 --> 01:12:49,760
worried about what's going to
break on me.

1551
01:12:49,960 --> 01:12:53,760
I see a 65 year old man and I
think to myself, my son's going

1552
01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:57,240
to be 15 when I'm 65.
Do I want to be the old man

1553
01:12:57,240 --> 01:13:00,160
that's shuffling around at 65 or
do I want to be that badass dad

1554
01:13:00,160 --> 01:13:01,920
that's still competing in the
shop in the discus?

1555
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,600
You know, I'm, I'm 50.
I'm, I'm throwing up weight in

1556
01:13:06,600 --> 01:13:08,720
the gym that I didn't throw up
since I was in my 30s.

1557
01:13:09,120 --> 01:13:11,280
I feel good.
Yes, I, I've gone through some

1558
01:13:11,280 --> 01:13:13,600
injuries because I'm pushing
myself to another level, But I,

1559
01:13:13,600 --> 01:13:15,400
I'm, I'm doing that
intentionally.

1560
01:13:15,400 --> 01:13:18,440
I'm doing it because I'm like, I
don't want to hold back.

1561
01:13:18,440 --> 01:13:20,720
I want to, I want to give all
that I can give.

1562
01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:23,600
I don't have, you know, so much
time.

1563
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:26,320
Not to interrupt you, but I
don't think I can stress enough

1564
01:13:26,320 --> 01:13:29,000
that this is a guy that didn't
live his whole life like this.

1565
01:13:29,000 --> 01:13:32,760
This is a guy that went from
being broken down and overweight

1566
01:13:32,760 --> 01:13:36,200
at an unprecedented level to
sitting here talking to you

1567
01:13:36,200 --> 01:13:39,080
saying I'm going to the gym and
I'm kicking ass, right?

1568
01:13:39,240 --> 01:13:40,560
Yeah, this is like 2 years,
right?

1569
01:13:40,560 --> 01:13:41,880
So.
Impressive your journey.

1570
01:13:42,160 --> 01:13:46,120
August 4th, 2022 was the primary
and we were watching the video

1571
01:13:46,120 --> 01:13:48,160
and I told my dad I was like,
I'm like I would turn this

1572
01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:52,160
around August 5th.
My biggest problem wasn't even

1573
01:13:52,160 --> 01:13:55,160
junk food or sodas.
I don't drink that or eat that.

1574
01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:57,800
My biggest thing was I eat pasta
five days a week.

1575
01:13:57,800 --> 01:14:00,000
I love bread and I drink a
gallon of milk a day and that

1576
01:14:00,000 --> 01:14:02,840
was pretty much what I was.
I was a pasta, bread and milk

1577
01:14:02,840 --> 01:14:05,320
drinker and.
I'm allergic to dairy so I don't

1578
01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:07,280
do that, but I love breads and
pastas man.

1579
01:14:11,880 --> 01:14:17,200
He froze.
I do believe so, Brian.

1580
01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:19,920
I lost you guys for a second.
So.

1581
01:14:20,560 --> 01:14:24,960
Yeah, you froze up for a second.
So, so I ate a lot of pasta, ate

1582
01:14:24,960 --> 01:14:27,280
a lot of bread and I drink a lot
of milk and that was pretty much

1583
01:14:27,280 --> 01:14:28,920
it.
And and that's, you know, what

1584
01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:30,360
it was that got me to where I
was.

1585
01:14:30,360 --> 01:14:32,160
I would sit down and just eat
and eat and eat.

1586
01:14:32,160 --> 01:14:34,440
I love macaroni and cheese.
I'd eat macaroni and cheese, you

1587
01:14:34,440 --> 01:14:39,160
know, 3-4 times a week.
And so I, I turned myself on 20

1588
01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:42,320
days starting on the 5th of
August 2022.

1589
01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:46,040
By August 25th, I had already
lost 20 lbs, hadn't touched the

1590
01:14:46,040 --> 01:14:47,960
gym.
I go to the gym on August 20,

1591
01:14:48,080 --> 01:14:51,440
25th, I get on the elliptical.
Now this is a guy who used to to

1592
01:14:51,440 --> 01:14:53,880
to venture over 500.
He's just squat over 7.

1593
01:14:53,880 --> 01:14:55,480
I was power lifter.
I was a thrower.

1594
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:57,920
I get on the elliptical for 15
minutes and I feel like I'm

1595
01:14:57,920 --> 01:14:59,640
going to die.
I walk outside after throwing up

1596
01:15:00,240 --> 01:15:02,520
and I call my dad and I'm like,
you're never going to fucking

1597
01:15:02,520 --> 01:15:05,520
believe this.
And he's like he's like he's

1598
01:15:05,520 --> 01:15:08,360
like he's like, well, just
remember and goes back to this

1599
01:15:08,760 --> 01:15:11,200
by inch is a cinch, you know,
and that's what he said.

1600
01:15:11,640 --> 01:15:15,320
So I would just progressively,
hey, make sure I'm I'm eating

1601
01:15:15,320 --> 01:15:19,280
right And a year and a half
later, so that was August 4th.

1602
01:15:19,280 --> 01:15:24,600
I started at two at 370 on
November 13th in 2023.

1603
01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:29,160
Fifteen months, right, 15
months, I was down to a 245.

1604
01:15:29,520 --> 01:15:33,040
Wow, yeah.
Congratulations, lifestyle

1605
01:15:33,040 --> 01:15:34,760
change, man.
And that was before the peptides

1606
01:15:34,760 --> 01:15:35,800
and before the supplements,
right?

1607
01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:37,960
That was just.
Peptides started, I started

1608
01:15:37,960 --> 01:15:40,200
getting, well, my dad had
started getting sick in that

1609
01:15:40,200 --> 01:15:41,960
September and I started getting
into the peptides.

1610
01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:45,840
I started using very small
amount of stuff at that point.

1611
01:15:46,080 --> 01:15:48,200
That's what set me off on that,
that thing.

1612
01:15:48,520 --> 01:15:51,520
And with his cancers, I went
deep into it, started realizing,

1613
01:15:51,800 --> 01:15:53,120
and then I was my own Guinea
pig.

1614
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:55,400
So, I mean, yeah, there still
wasn't.

1615
01:15:55,480 --> 01:15:57,480
There's still even to this day,
you've said it.

1616
01:15:57,680 --> 01:16:00,080
There's so many little tidbits
and snippets out there, but

1617
01:16:00,080 --> 01:16:02,920
nobody really gets into it
because they're not really

1618
01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:04,520
promoting something they've
done.

1619
01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:06,160
They're just promoting stuff
that they're seeing 'cause

1620
01:16:06,160 --> 01:16:07,360
they're trying to sell you some
shit.

1621
01:16:07,560 --> 01:16:09,040
Yeah.
Realistically, or in her case,

1622
01:16:09,040 --> 01:16:11,920
like she read about it, right?
Yeah, yeah, I've read about how

1623
01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:13,520
people are doing this and it
was, yeah.

1624
01:16:13,560 --> 01:16:16,200
Maybe there was a peer review
paper or something.

1625
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:18,320
I have an entire refrigerator.
He does.

1626
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:21,400
It looks like a pharmacy.
He does that's he showed it to

1627
01:16:21,400 --> 01:16:23,080
me.
Nick and I were on a FaceTime

1628
01:16:23,080 --> 01:16:24,880
with him and he's like, hey,
check out my regimen and we're

1629
01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:25,800
just.
Like what?

1630
01:16:26,000 --> 01:16:27,080
That's awesome.
Just.

1631
01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:30,160
Yeah, it's, I'm just so happy it
worked for you, you know, to

1632
01:16:30,440 --> 01:16:33,040
think about where you were and
where you're at now.

1633
01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:36,680
And for Christ's sake, you had
surgery 48 hours ago and you're

1634
01:16:36,680 --> 01:16:40,160
still full of all this energy to
talk about how positive this is.

1635
01:16:40,160 --> 01:16:41,480
That's awesome, man.
Yeah.

1636
01:16:41,520 --> 01:16:43,760
No, it's just part of it's.
Just because it's Brian Morris,

1637
01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:46,840
that's just, that's just, you
know, that's just his

1638
01:16:46,840 --> 01:16:50,960
personality, you know, now it's.
Helping people.

1639
01:16:51,000 --> 01:16:53,480
I feel like I said, I fully
believe that after 30,

1640
01:16:53,480 --> 01:16:57,080
especially in our 40s, I, I put
up a post the other day and I

1641
01:16:57,080 --> 01:16:59,720
was like, Hey, I need a referral
for a cardiologist.

1642
01:17:00,040 --> 01:17:03,800
And I cannot believe how many of
my friends in their mid 40s to

1643
01:17:03,800 --> 01:17:06,720
mid 50s are already seeing
cardiologists.

1644
01:17:06,720 --> 01:17:09,360
And there's a hundred and
something referrals on there

1645
01:17:09,600 --> 01:17:11,360
from people who are actually
seeing cardiologists.

1646
01:17:11,360 --> 01:17:13,680
And I'm like, therein lies the
problem.

1647
01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:18,480
We're, we're all on this journey
of being transformative or, or

1648
01:17:18,480 --> 01:17:20,680
preventative.
And realistically, if you're

1649
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,960
not, you're just you're, you're
on the pathway to just being

1650
01:17:23,960 --> 01:17:26,160
that 65 year old man that's
shuffling his feet.

1651
01:17:26,160 --> 01:17:28,720
And I don't want to be that guy.
And that nor do I.

1652
01:17:29,120 --> 01:17:32,160
No, and that is the that is a
perfect way to wrap this thing

1653
01:17:32,160 --> 01:17:35,640
up.
That's Brian Morse of We Fix

1654
01:17:35,640 --> 01:17:37,640
Ugly Pools.
You can find him on on YouTube

1655
01:17:37,640 --> 01:17:40,960
at wefixuglypools.com, right or
right or just at Brian Morris.

1656
01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:42,040
He's there.
Just go find him.

1657
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:44,560
We're going to have you back on.
We're going to do a whole show

1658
01:17:44,560 --> 01:17:46,120
on peptides.
Once you get your website up and

1659
01:17:46,120 --> 01:17:47,960
running, let me know and then
we'll get that scheduled out.

1660
01:17:49,840 --> 01:17:51,680
I've, you know, I've known you
forever and ever.

1661
01:17:51,680 --> 01:17:54,600
So none of this is a surprise of
heart because I know how you see

1662
01:17:54,600 --> 01:17:56,840
something and you, you're just,
you're dialed in.

1663
01:17:56,840 --> 01:17:57,880
You're kind of like me like
that.

1664
01:17:58,520 --> 01:18:01,560
Mike, you have any any thoughts
about for Brian before we wrap

1665
01:18:01,560 --> 01:18:04,200
it all up?
No, definitely look forward to

1666
01:18:04,480 --> 01:18:08,080
having you back and thanks for
I, I had no idea where you're

1667
01:18:08,080 --> 01:18:10,640
going to go down that road.
So that, that was awesome for

1668
01:18:10,640 --> 01:18:12,080
sure.
Well, and see, that's the cool

1669
01:18:12,080 --> 01:18:13,480
thing about our show, Brian.
We don't.

1670
01:18:13,480 --> 01:18:16,200
There's no agenda.
There's no agenda.

1671
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:17,840
It's a conversation.
It's not an interview.

1672
01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:19,680
It's kind of like how I did the
radio show, right?

1673
01:18:19,680 --> 01:18:21,840
There was never I got, I got
they would give me shit all the

1674
01:18:21,840 --> 01:18:23,480
time because I wasn't always
talking real estate.

1675
01:18:23,520 --> 01:18:25,120
I was like, I don't want to just
talk real estate, man.

1676
01:18:25,120 --> 01:18:28,520
I want to talk about life, you
know, and, and we always wrap

1677
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:30,400
the show up like this.
Don't let the bad days win.

1678
01:18:31,360 --> 01:18:34,200
If you don't wake up tomorrow,
somebody's who loves you is

1679
01:18:34,200 --> 01:18:36,920
going to miss you.
And Burrell just apparently took

1680
01:18:36,920 --> 01:18:38,280
her own life.
She was found.

1681
01:18:38,280 --> 01:18:40,280
If you don't know Amber Ella,
she's a Food Network star that

1682
01:18:40,280 --> 01:18:41,480
had all kinds of shows and
stuff.

1683
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:45,800
She was found unresponsive this
past Tuesday morning in her

1684
01:18:45,800 --> 01:18:49,160
shower with over 100 different
assortment of pills.

1685
01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:53,600
So they're think she took her
own life, which really, really,

1686
01:18:54,000 --> 01:18:56,720
I mean, you know, it's, it's
there's always a better way.

1687
01:18:56,720 --> 01:18:58,120
Reach out to somebody.
Somebody Loves You.

1688
01:18:58,120 --> 01:19:00,400
Somebody will miss you.
So don't don't take your life

1689
01:19:00,880 --> 01:19:03,560
because you're having a bad day.
Do not let the bad days when it

1690
01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:07,840
will be better tomorrow when you
wake up and and start all over,

1691
01:19:07,880 --> 01:19:12,000
right?
Inch by inch, baby.

1692
01:19:12,360 --> 01:19:14,280
I love that too.
Love you Brian.

1693
01:19:14,400 --> 01:19:15,040
Love you, Mike.
Love.

1694
01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:17,200
You guys too, I appreciate.
You.

1695
01:19:17,840 --> 01:19:19,080
Yeah, yeah.
Tell little Brian.

1696
01:19:19,160 --> 01:19:21,960
Tell, tell little B We said hi.
Absolutely.

1697
01:19:21,960 --> 01:19:23,760
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday, little B.

1698
01:19:40,760 --> 01:19:47,800
On your journey, this is the
place where you will go.

1699
01:19:49,840 --> 01:19:52,400
Be on the trail behind your
eyes.

1700
01:19:53,640 --> 01:20:00,120
Feel yourself and need yourself.
Take a moment, Look until you

1701
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:02,560
see it.
Fight your battle.

1702
01:20:02,560 --> 01:20:06,640
That's you.
You both will fight your battle,

1703
01:20:06,720 --> 01:21:32,560
but you both will.
Come down here.

1704
01:21:32,560 --> 01:21:36,680
He haven't found solids in his
sand.

1705
01:21:36,800 --> 01:21:43,120
He's from fighting.
Wait for the dead when he's

1706
01:21:43,200 --> 01:21:44,040
closer.
I'm here.

1707
01:21:44,360 --> 01:21:50,040

You've got to do you 2 in your
life.

01:21:59,880 --> 01:22:04,520
The people.
So in every day, take the turn

1711
01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:10,520

Feel the soul evolution now.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

Take a moment.
Listen to your tear.

01:22:25,320 --> 01:22:27,560
Fight the battle with you more
clear.

1715
01:22:53,460 --> 01:22:58,020
You gotta, you gotta.
You gotta, you gotta, you gotta.
