00:00:00.000 Hey, what's up? I'm Tony Gonzalez.
00:00:01.540 And I'm October Gonzalez.
00:00:02.940 But you can call me Toby.
00:00:04.000 We want you to join us on our new podcast,
00:00:06.660 No Safe Words with October and Tony Gonzalez.
00:00:08.960 Where we get real about marriage, parenthood, sex, divorce,
00:00:12.520 and all the nitty gritty stuff we all think about.
00:00:14.980 But just don't say it out loud.
00:00:16.060 You're probably just going to be some rich guy
00:00:17.460 and he's going to whisk you away.
00:00:19.760 This is awkward.
00:00:20.840 Listen to No Safe Words with October and Tony Gonzalez
00:00:23.640 on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast,
00:00:26.580 or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:00:28.460 Ladies and gentlemen, it's Ashton Hall
00:00:31.060 Are your morning routines legitimate?
00:00:33.340 Yeah, that's what changed my life
00:00:34.480 7pm in a perfect world, I'm sleeping
00:00:36.240 No like, oh shit, Packers and Cowboys just went to OT
00:00:38.960 What is that? Who's that?
00:00:40.200 Who's that?
00:00:41.400 What the fuck happened with speed, bro?
00:00:43.200 Looking back at the clips, it hurts me to watch
00:00:45.080 The first one, I slipped
00:00:46.100 Second one, you barely beat me, let's run it again
00:00:47.860 You know, a lot of people say like the weight and whatnot
00:00:50.040 But really for me, it was
00:00:51.940 Can we talk about your physique, brother?
00:00:53.460 Those pythons are fucking crazy
00:00:55.500 They all say I'm not natty, though
00:00:56.820 Well, you definitely don't look natty
00:00:58.200 do I? That's the goal. So the question we all have
00:01:00.280 is? I didn't make it to the NFL. Just
00:01:02.160 because I wasn't locked in. It says you finished your college
00:01:04.160 career with just eight yards for six rushes.
00:01:06.280 How could you make it to the NFL with stats like

00:04:49.800 adapting and how his content or his platform is performing um we'll see and if here's the thing
00:04:57.100 with vine there was writing on the wall i knew this platform wasn't going to last forever
00:05:03.000 and so I diversified
00:05:04.380 and a lot of the Viners
00:05:05.300 got stuck

00:05:31.820 ladies and gentlemen
00:05:32.540 It's Ashton Hall

00:05:36.540 Normally more people
00:05:37.300 That was felt fucking

00:05:39.640 Shit
00:05:40.140 Well there's people down there
00:05:41.300 Hey fuck you guys
00:05:42.840 Yo next time we do that
00:05:43.860 Can y'all clap please
00:05:44.720 She's a girl
00:05:45.860 That's a girl
00:05:46.540 I assume
00:05:48.140 Now that I'm looking
00:05:51.480 I can very clearly see
00:05:52.520 But Ashton's big shoulder
00:05:53.460 Was in the way
00:05:53.920 She goes 1.00
00:05:55.060 Damn Logan
00:05:55.780 So dude
00:05:56.420 When you started popping off
00:05:58.040 The number one question I had was
00:06:00.160 Who is this guy
00:06:01.160 Yeah
00:06:01.640 i didn't know about your personality i wasn't i wasn't sure if you were built to talk or if you
00:06:06.480 were like intentionally silent yeah because you're kind of mysterious online why you say that
00:06:11.680 just never hear you talking i mean it's asmr yeah so it's asmr we don't talk we don't speak so because
00:06:19.860 my idea when i first started pushing i wanted to reach everybody so if i i knew if i put a lot of
00:06:26.160 words in there it wouldn't go to india it wouldn't go to china it wouldn't go to brazil you get what
00:06:30.380 i'm saying so we just did straight asmr and that was it but now we talk a little bit we show a lot
00:06:35.400 more now are we using the same definition of asmr no it is asmr when it watch his videos oh yeah
00:06:40.460 it is the sounds incredible now that before it was no words like it was literally like we weren't
00:06:45.020 allowed to say any words and then i started saying thank you you know a little bit here and there
00:06:50.000 and then we started doing skits what do you mean you weren't allowed that was just like i just
00:06:53.280 didn't want to put any words i just wanted to be straight sounds that's it straight sounds because
00:06:58.020 when i first started my whole thing was branding like i love branding so my goal branding and sales
00:07:03.260 i wanted to teach the word brand teach the world branding and sales that was it um and then things
00:07:09.000 started blowing off god said we have a different plan and i'm like dang bro like i'm starting over
00:07:14.260 at 29 uh but yeah that's what it was though we're just posting just to go viral um a mixture of that
00:07:20.680 and also like showing my routine that helped me get to where i was at because i had a lot of people
00:07:25.540 in my program i was teaching people branding how to blow up on social media so i wanted to show
00:07:30.880 them like what they could do how their life can look and also what the routine should somewhat
00:07:36.000 look like just structure so the question we all have is are your morning routines legitimate 100
00:07:43.140 yeah that's actually what you're doing yeah that's what changed my life top to bottom
00:07:46.640 uh i got pushed off my routine a good bit when i was traveling i went to dubai i went to um
00:07:52.720 india traveling makes it it was bad yeah yeah terrible yeah but yeah before i was getting into
00:07:59.280 like just a lot of pop-ups and whatnot it was just literally just i wasn't leaving at all if i wanted
00:08:04.800 to try if i wanted to see my family i would bring them uh to my home city or to my city which was
00:08:09.060 miami because they live in jacksonville um but i was very strict with my routine like i couldn't
00:08:13.540 even answer calls at 7 p.m legit because i would be staying up you know i'm saying you break your
00:08:18.420 rules to do the show tonight the show yeah 100 i brown every now and it's 8 06 right now does it
00:08:24.660 feel like like 2 2 a.m right now for you like no it's chill 8 like in a perfect world i'm sleep

00:08:37.520 no like oh shit packers and cowboys just went to ot what is that who's that who's that i can't
00:08:44.380 afford to be those guys as fans you know i'm saying i got a family coming soon hopefully
00:08:47.860 that's the goal so with who i don't yeah i'm single but i'm saying eventually
00:08:52.180 but no but you no no no you got your priorities in order i'm just asking questions like

00:09:33.040 you gotta leave some milk out some cookies it's 7 45 he's still up he's wired he wants to know
00:09:38.800 When I have the kids, sorry to cut you off.
00:09:40.840 When I have the kids, I live for them.
00:09:42.540 Got it.
00:09:43.200 You know what I'm saying?
00:09:43.900 It's different right now.
00:09:45.340 Like literally I'm still living for my family.
00:09:47.760 I go to sleep early so I could provide, so I could elevate, so I can get to a place.
00:09:52.120 When I have my kids, they can have the life that I had, but 10 times more.
00:09:56.700 You get what I'm saying?
00:09:57.600 100%.
00:09:57.960 Actually, I actually want you to talk about that a little more because I think it's a little more profound than what you just said or just hearing it right off the rip.
00:10:05.380 You're working right now for the family you don't yet have.
00:10:08.800 hundred percent tell me about that so for me like even on saturdays i have my refeed day cheat day
00:10:14.280 and i'm literally just like kind of like low-key depressed like dang bro like i get to have all
00:10:20.240 this good food i have no lady you know i'm saying i'm thinking like i put myself in a place where i
00:10:24.460 low-key i act like she's already there because i don't want to just like date without intention
00:10:29.740 but yeah everything i do right now is literally for for the future and you know when i was young
00:10:35.320 I wanted to be married at 23, 24.
00:10:38.200 I'm 29 now, still single.
00:10:40.000 So it's just a story.
00:10:41.400 Does that upset you?
00:10:42.820 No, because I know it's God's plan.
00:10:44.420 It's God's plan.
00:10:45.340 And I know he's going to send it at the right time.
00:10:48.100 That's what I keep telling myself, too.
00:10:49.660 Oh, you're single?
00:10:50.820 Yeah.

00:11:06.800 Oh, no, no.
00:11:07.280 That makes sense.

00:11:18.560 Like, still looking good.
00:11:20.140 Yeah.
00:11:20.300 Almost prime.
00:11:21.060 I could tell you're probably at your prime right now.
00:11:23.340 I've had a little bit of an unconventional life.
00:11:26.000 Oh, really?
00:11:26.540 It's different?
00:11:27.600 Yeah.
00:11:27.880 We don't have to get into the weeds of it.
00:11:31.380 My life is...
00:11:32.640 Okay, so if you took someone that...
00:11:34.320 Are y'all hot or cold?
00:11:35.660 At the moment?
00:11:36.220 Yeah.
00:11:36.600 I run hot, so right now I'm actually good.
00:11:38.440 What are you?
00:11:39.180 I'm a little lemic, so I'm a little cold.
00:11:41.280 You're a little cold?
00:11:41.940 Can we get the man a blankie?
00:11:43.400 There's one right there.
00:11:44.840 That might be a towel, though.
00:11:45.900 You want this?
00:11:46.580 Nah, it should be good.
00:11:47.320 I'll warm up.
00:11:47.880 That actually would be fire if you actually put that on.
00:11:50.060 This is warm.
00:11:51.400 Nah, it would mess up the aesthetic.
00:11:52.720 The aesthetic?
00:11:53.220 Yeah, 100%.
00:11:53.720 It would be funny now, but in the clips, people would be like, why is he having a towel?
00:11:58.920 He doesn't.
00:11:59.560 I'm like midway.
00:12:00.420 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:12:01.380 yeah but in context or for some context like you and i probably have if you could put two people
00:12:07.160 at two polar opposite ends of a spectrum like we probably live the exact opposite lives oh really
00:12:11.820 like i don't think there's any maybe charlie sheen when you wake up he's going to bed sometimes
00:12:16.380 sometimes but but but in a shorter sense i have no discipline i have no i think there's there's
00:12:21.740 there's nothing wrong oh you have no schedule see for me i don't think there's a certain time that
00:12:26.220 you have to wake up but for me it's like i think we all just live our own lives you get what i'm
00:12:31.360 saying so for me it was like a lot of a lot of um i would fall short at nighttime so the hours
00:12:37.700 between 7 p.m and 12 a.m i'm not really doing anything productive my mind is just growing weary
00:12:43.020 i'm just doom strolling on instagram i'm not doing anything productive so i might as well cut these
00:12:47.580 hours out and put uh you know things that's actually going to help me to the forefront of
00:12:52.200 my day which is 4 a.m nobody's calling my phone 8 a.m people start blowing you up everyone's up
00:12:57.400 they're awake my team's calling me 4 a.m to 8 i could just do my own thing yeah it's crazy though
00:13:02.500 i couldn't commit to going to bed so early you actually go to bed at 7 p.m that's the goal
00:13:07.080 yeah i would say like 70 of the time so like sometimes like now we have the podcast yeah i
00:13:12.760 popped out you know you didn't get here until like what 30 minutes ago you're grinding yeah so i said
00:13:17.160 let's run it slogan ball let's run i appreciate that bro what time do you dinner at i try to eat

00:18:35.880 How hard was it for you to find your wife?
00:18:41.920 Put it like this.
00:18:45.100 I was certain that finding a partner for life was impossible.
00:18:51.380 i i had doomed myself to bachelorhood for life yeah i thought it i thought i thought it was
00:18:59.740 too complex and complicated and um hard to love and my lifestyle as well was too crazy for any
00:19:07.240 girl to try to keep up with and then when i met her i was simple like she understood me
00:19:12.960 and i understood her and she was one of the first women that i i just like i i got her
00:19:19.760 what did you meet her um i met her at the uh the hard rock hotel in miami was it was an opening
00:19:25.560 yeah classic not not miami really or sorry in new york yeah in new york yeah it was just a classic
00:19:30.860 she was there i was there we both uh went for the opening how long ago uh three and a half years and
00:19:37.680 now we have a beautiful baby daughter named esme who just turned one like two days ago happy birthday
00:19:42.580 asked me ashton it's the it's it's it's um probably the most rewarding thing that a human
00:19:49.700 can experience in my opinion for sure for sure okay like it's it's just amazing and it seems
00:19:58.100 like you have all the qualities that a woman would want but i wonder how a woman would fit
00:20:04.360 in your lifestyle at the moment like how many women want to go to bed at 7 p.m 100 you know
00:20:12.520 100 i don't know like i don't i don't know i'm not i'm not a mentor i'm just asking questions
00:20:17.300 like i could i could i could see how it would be difficult for you because you're still very much
00:20:22.580 on your own journey which is totally fine yeah yeah it would definitely it's definitely hard
00:20:26.760 you know i'm saying because for me like it kind of keeps me in a place where it's okay like if i
00:20:32.140 have to break you know my curfew and i have to break my routine and go out at eight you know
00:20:38.240 as i did for logan paul if i have to break my curfew for her she has to be worth it you know
00:20:42.980 i'm saying i'm not just like dating without intention so i think it's good i think it's
00:20:46.920 good for me because if i could stay out till like 11 12 i'm not doing anything yeah let's go kick it
00:20:50.860 you know i'm saying i don't yeah but then it fucks the whole next day sorry if you
00:20:54.840 i think we can find time though we can find time 100 but then it ruins the next day though right
00:21:01.340 like if you go out at 12 and you get home at or if you get home at you know 2 then you can't wake
00:21:06.320 up in the at the same time you gotta get your we don't have to kick it until 2 a.m i don't think
00:21:10.460 bro i what if she wants to go to 11 11 the club i'm just kidding she wants to do that wait wait
00:21:17.940 i'm just kidding i'll get have you been able to narrow down qualities in a in a woman that you
00:21:23.020 like bro i haven't really fell for a girl bro in so long bro bro for real like the first girl i was
00:21:30.160 with like i was in love like i'm with her yeah like i'm like yo this is my wife god it's good
00:21:35.420 I met her at 17 like I'm good
00:21:37.480 I can cross this off I don't need to search
00:21:39.860 for this anymore and
00:21:41.500 it didn't happen we only worked together for like
00:21:43.700 9 or 12 months or something like that
00:21:45.120 but yeah nah I haven't 1.00
00:21:47.840 really fell for a girl since her 1.00
00:21:49.140 dude that happens to people 1.00
00:21:51.480 there's like emperor penguins out there
00:21:53.320 too that like dude they have one mate
00:21:55.740 and then they never mate again bro
00:21:57.200 oh really? maybe you're a penguin
00:21:58.960 yeah
00:22:00.080 he's funny bro
00:22:02.680 it's odd
00:22:03.940 that was that came out wrong because he was serious though that's why that's when i started
00:22:10.280 laughing i was waiting for that i'm like oh he's serious yeah bro you know they also they bring
00:22:15.220 their partners rocks as gifts yes as little gifts penguins are that cute really penguins are serious
00:22:20.640 um uh wait can i ask a serious question because it's a joke i was gonna ask you if i was gonna
00:22:26.280 ask you if you feel like take all the take all the stuff that's known or not known out of it
00:22:31.780 that when you approach a modern woman when you approach a modern woman with that level intent
00:22:38.720 of intentionality and that level of of just pureness yeah do you feel like that in some
00:22:45.480 way adds a level of pressure that the modern woman is not able to actually live up to or or
00:22:50.600 feel comfortable with yeah i mean i don't yeah for sure like if i'm out with the guys and everybody's
00:22:56.760 like lit like i'm the only one not drinking i never drink never smoke ever i'm the only one
00:23:00.900 not drinking i'm the only one not like speaking to a whole bunch of people like they they kind of
00:23:04.720 know what's going on um but yeah that's just what it is but i usually don't really go out i'm not
00:23:09.880 really put in that situation like i don't do anything i'm just like going at it just working
00:23:14.640 yeah yeah dude i'm surprised uh you you really started to pop off at like 28 29 yeah because
00:23:23.000 you have a crazy discipline yeah you're focused you don't really i mean bro like you're saying
00:23:28.580 you're not perfect but as far as i can tell at least compared to us you're pretty perfect yeah
00:23:32.500 i think uh if i could run it back i was just stuck on football for like most of my life until 24
00:23:38.980 so i was in college for six years and i wasn't disciplined i didn't even finish so you know i
00:23:44.440 think that experience god you know put he delayed it because i had to know what it was like to miss
00:23:51.800 like because i could have went to the league you know i'm saying but i missed um and i think that
00:23:57.820 is what kind of got that chip on my shoulder like I'm not passing over any more opportunities poor
00:24:02.760 pass over opportunities repeatedly I'm not passing over anything that's the goal so
00:24:06.660 I kind of needed that little like nip in the butt for me to tighten up yeah and then what what did
00:24:12.780 you change about your lifestyle because one thing for me like people will look at like your your
00:24:18.960 physique people will look at your ability to go viral people will look at your spirituality as
00:24:23.680 like the big things that you exhibit that are the most attractive to me it's it's purely just the
00:24:28.500 overall discipline i'm a very undisciplined person yeah i fly by the seat of my pants the system i
00:24:34.280 have works for me but it's like i said it's the far other side of the spectrum from you it's very
00:24:38.220 undisciplined and very wild and open when you realize that this that the lack of discipline
00:24:44.060 was what was costing you the opportunities how did you start to layer that discipline into your life
00:24:48.080 because it's such a hard thing for me i know it's like one cold turkey always works best for me like
00:24:54.440 just like straight up like okay cool if i want to get in shape bro like i need to do something that
00:24:58.900 most people aren't doing i'm not gonna oh i'm just gonna cut back from the cheesecake at night like
00:25:02.840 i'm cutting out all carbs like i'm going to the gym every single day not because it's the best
00:25:07.860 thing for me just because i need to build that habit you get what i'm saying so it's like oh
00:25:11.980 dang i want to level up in business i'm gonna wake up at 350 i'm not gonna wake up an hour earlier
00:25:16.520 I'm going to wake up four hours earlier.
00:25:18.540 Radical change.
00:25:19.180 So my mind, I got to sell myself.
00:25:21.200 Once I sell myself, I'm good.
00:25:22.580 So if I go a whole week without any carbs, I'm that guy mentally.
00:25:26.840 You get what I'm saying?
00:25:27.420 So I think most of it comes from confidence and, you know, just being able to say no.
00:25:31.860 It's not about like doing more.
00:25:33.740 It's about being able to do less, saying no to more things, saying no to the guys when
00:25:38.680 they want to go out, saying no to the girls that I know I'm probably not going to marry.
00:25:42.480 You get what I'm saying?
00:25:43.120 We can't really text.
00:25:43.980 so i think when you do that for like time like for a long period of time you're good um but for
00:25:50.580 me it's just like there's no like halfway in like i'm fully in or i'm fully out and i noticed that
00:25:56.400 about me i can't just like you know sometimes i slack off my diet like i only can have one cheat
00:26:01.560 day one a week that's it that's i mean one meal at that that's still good that's that's like a
00:26:07.000 level of discipline i mean it does to be fair sound like you go hard as fuck yeah like 24
00:26:11.940 cookies is that's that's impressive it's different it's unhealthy well because i don't have a good
00:26:17.600 relationship with food it's bad what i'm hearing is you're saying you're fully in or fully out you
00:26:21.160 sound like a bit of an extremist i mean your lifestyle is extreme i'm bad bro so well it's
00:26:25.580 good you're on this side yeah well some stuff is still bad with like like the uh energy drinks
00:26:30.380 i wanted to ask you i'll have like 1500 2000 uh what is it grams a day every single day every
00:26:36.600 day milligrams yeah milligrams wait every single day bro so 10 it's either i cut it out completely
00:26:42.960 or i'm just locked in like what what what drink do you drink i drink a lot i drink uh i drink rain
00:26:50.680 i drink prime prime is fire you like it yeah i love it but we gotta get you a deal yeah i drink
00:26:54.900 rain prime is really really good thank you i love what you guys are doing thank you um and then i'll
00:26:59.280 have like accelerators sometimes okay yeah dude that's a lot of caffeine a ton bro coffee uh i
00:27:06.320 try to do the coffee but it's brown so it's bad for the teeth yeah it's bad for the aesthetic
00:27:12.180 you're you're absolutely right i when i when i drink coffee i'll make an effort if i can to
00:27:18.020 brush my teeth after yeah which it's sometimes but then it just kills for me it kills the caffeine
00:27:22.420 hit i just want to just lock in like for me when then when i go to get too pacing is like
00:27:28.400 i'd take it just so i could just lock in and work it's funny because like we always say on the show
00:27:32.920 like everyone has a vice and it's like the definition of that varies but it like cat that's
00:27:39.660 oh it's bad that's like that's a lot of caffeine bro my team is always like yo ash like relax like
00:27:45.480 they're worried and then i'll and then i'll get off of it and i'm like yo i'm i'm good yeah two
00:27:50.800 months later it's over i have to find you in a back alley just when you quit prime energy exactly
00:27:55.820 right they're like yo we're worried about ashton man he's like come on legit legit legit so it's
00:28:01.300 like yeah that's just what it is what up what over the top of everything what else any any other like
00:28:07.100 because you used to play video games too right no never maybe it was a skit yeah it was a skit
00:28:11.820 yeah yeah i played video games in college you know i'm saying like when i was playing ball and
00:28:17.580 stuff like that uh so that skit was like my life back then um but since i've been locked in i was
00:28:23.320 addicted to adderall yeah so i took i used to take crazy amount of adderall like crazy amount
00:28:29.180 it was scary and i was still having a thousand two uh two thousand milligrams of caffeine with
00:28:34.500 adderall that's insane and i was having like 120 milligrams of like adderall a day every single day
00:28:40.480 oh you must have been spazzing bro yeah i was just like for me like it was when i first got into
00:28:46.320 the business. And then I lost one of the people who I was working with, one of my editors. So I
00:28:51.120 was like, yo, I got to lock in. Like, bro, I just started doing good in life. Like, you know, I found
00:28:54.960 my passion outside of football. Like, I can't lose it. So I started taking Adderall. And I always
00:29:01.240 felt like I had a problem locking in, couldn't finish college, always was failing in high school,
00:29:05.940 you know, not paying attention in class at all, but I was pretty gifted. I was smart.
00:29:10.940 So I told my mom, I'm like, yo, mom, I think I have a problem. Like, I think I need to take
00:29:14.740 adderall um for me it's like it's not illegal like i don't do anything crazy never smoke never
00:29:19.680 drink ever um but if i would have known what adderall was fully i would have never taken it
00:29:25.080 so i got addicted to that like 2021 quit in 2022 like cold turkey you know i'm saying because i
00:29:30.660 was taking so much my heart was having an issue at one point and it got kind of scary yeah so uh
00:29:36.740 it's a big problem too in the state a lot of students take it a lot of people take it but
00:29:40.320 Some people just aren't, like, addicted.
00:29:42.020 Yeah.
00:29:42.580 I have an addictive personality.
00:29:44.080 Like, I'm fully in or fully out.

00:30:33.600 It shows in the work.
00:30:34.660 Your output is frequent.
00:30:36.320 The views are all there.
00:30:37.520 the videos you make are really impressive and and thank you hard to make their time consuming and
00:30:42.880 i'm telling you that because i know yeah because i remade one of your videos how was that how was
00:30:48.300 that bro hard it was good though i saw it fuck it thanks bro thanks bro me and kevin took all day
00:30:54.920 to shoot this video i'm i'm literally like bro this took all fucking day yeah and like i like
00:31:00.340 i'm doing these little scenes these vignettes i want to make sure they're perfect yeah um and
00:31:04.580 then also what i what i noticed was um you you play with the sound what you what is asmr now
00:31:10.420 that you say it i didn't know you were like trying to do asmr yeah i want them to feel like they're
00:31:15.380 there yeah i want them to hear everything so yeah i'll tell my team i'm like yo listen everybody
00:31:20.660 quiet we turn down the ac sometimes turn off the ac so it's no like you can hear the ac right now
00:31:25.680 i want them to hear everything perfectly yeah but yeah we put a lot of time into it to work
00:31:29.540 You could tell how you convince your teammates to get up at 4 a.m. with you, bro.
00:31:34.140 Like even like it switches like one night we came up with a crazy idea.
00:31:37.960 We wanted to do a nighttime skit and I was like, yo, screw it.
00:31:41.340 Like because I got up at 4 a.m. that morning, but we started the skit at 10 p.m.
00:31:45.640 That same day and finished at 9 a.m.
00:31:48.480 Yeah. Oh, damn. And they rode out.
00:31:50.440 Kevin rode out with me like we all work for like 28 hours that day.
00:31:54.520 I mean, I'm 15 milligrams, 100 milligrams of caffeine.
00:31:56.660 You could probably stay up that that late as well.
00:31:58.540 But it doesn't even work, Brad, through a while.
00:32:00.320 Really?
00:32:00.480 That's not healthy.
00:32:01.080 You're only supposed to have like 400.
00:32:02.840 400 is the recommended.
00:32:04.160 It's the max.
00:32:04.760 But if you're a little bigger, you probably could have like 600.
00:32:06.880 Yeah.
00:32:07.380 400 from coffee, that's like, what, six, seven cups of coffee?
00:32:11.360 It just depends how many espresso shots you do.
00:32:13.700 Yeah, coffee's like 80.
00:32:16.100 What?
00:32:16.500 Yeah.
00:32:17.200 You have a lot of coffee?
00:32:18.720 Oh, six, seven?
00:32:21.500 Six, seven cups of coffee?
00:32:22.820 Oh, he's funny.
00:32:24.220 They say that's old.
00:32:25.600 They say that's an old joke, bro.
00:32:27.260 It's an unk joke.
00:32:27.440 It is.
00:32:27.860 Yeah, I said it last week, and Neon fried me.
00:32:31.040 He's like, brother, and I felt like I committed a crime.
00:32:34.120 I'm like, hey, bro.
00:32:35.260 No, because Neon is like, he's so far out.
00:32:37.680 He's too into it.
00:32:38.580 Yeah.
00:32:39.340 No, he's, bro, he's young is what we're.
00:32:41.700 That's what I'm saying, but he's also so talented.
00:32:43.200 Yeah, but when you catch on to the joke that late, it's a bad look.
00:32:46.620 No, we already did it.
00:32:47.440 We did, hey, excuse me.
00:32:48.280 We did this weeks ago.
00:32:49.860 We did this joke weeks ago.
00:32:51.880 It's dead today.
00:32:52.960 Well, because for Unk, no, but when Unk does old jokes, it's funny.
00:32:56.520 It's funny.
00:32:56.980 It's funny.
00:32:57.560 it's funny it's funny for them though 100 wait so um one thing that some people thought was funny
00:33:04.840 i didn't find it very funny was damn man what the fuck happened with speed bro bro he got me
00:33:09.400 yeah he got me 100 and you know my thing about it was you know a lot of people say like the weight
00:33:17.100 and whatnot um but really for me it was the first run i feel like i didn't give him a good run so
00:33:25.200 i'm like i gotta sell this dude to race me again like so i was just like going in run it back run
00:33:30.880 it back just trying to get in his head because i run sales but the kid is talented bro he's fast
00:33:35.860 he's he's actually like the first race he got out and i'm just looking like
00:33:42.360 like it wasn't close i'm like wow like bro's actually fast and people always want to say like
00:33:50.060 you lost to like a kid who streams he's not just a kid who streams he's gifted
00:33:54.640 oh no bro he's like he can dunk at his at five what five nine five ten like he's gifted but he's
00:34:01.180 one of the most talented people i've ever met in my life yeah and i think he's still just kind of
00:34:06.660 scratching the surface yeah he is yeah he is and i'm interested to see where he's gonna take it
00:34:12.040 because he's getting swole now oh bro he he's gonna fill out too even when i even when i met
00:34:16.740 him yeah and he came out the shirt i was like hold up bro i didn't know i didn't know that he
00:34:21.700 was big but now i could tell he's grinding bro he he could be someone who matures later like my
00:34:27.820 brother for example was someone who matures later he might do something i don't know i don't i mean
00:34:33.180 mature i mean like i mean like fill out in like a way where people are shocked by his physique
00:34:38.400 yeah you know like he's only what 21 21 yeah 20 i think he i thought he turned 21 is he 20 it's
00:34:44.840 insane um maybe it's insane um yeah i'm interested you think he might compete in something
00:34:49.880 he could
00:34:51.580 he could do whatever he wants
00:34:52.920 he's just one of those guys
00:34:54.520 that he could do whatever he wants
00:34:55.440 is he the biggest
00:34:56.060 is he the biggest
00:34:56.760 in the world right now
00:34:57.920 yeah
00:34:58.180 would you say
00:34:58.700 somebody was asking me yesterday
00:34:59.960 about who
00:35:00.860 who I thought was bigger
00:35:01.800 him or Kai
00:35:02.340 cause Kai's coming off that
00:35:03.320 but I
00:35:03.840 to speed is just
00:35:04.680 Kai's a fucking legend bro
00:35:06.440 culture
00:35:07.180 it's like culture
00:35:08.620 and global influence
00:35:09.700 Kai's killing it
00:35:10.880 like US
00:35:12.080 they're both doing amazing things
00:35:13.780 Kai's killing it
00:35:14.700 like US
00:35:15.240 yeah
00:35:15.800 and speed is just
00:35:17.120 worldwide
00:35:17.660 well those
00:35:18.620 soccer helps uh the tours help like like i just saw it but his energy though like how like because
00:35:27.480 i streamed for some time now and i'm like yo just seeing the clips like how he keeps that energy
00:35:33.520 you never know what to expect he can do whatever he's dancing he's hoping he's running all day
00:35:38.880 it's exhausting like i think people don't really like they don't really see like what you what it
00:35:44.720 takes to be able to do that all day no it's it's really hard we tried we tried to stream i i got
00:35:50.140 tired after two and a half hours i think it's the now i think it's an incredible medium for content
00:35:55.920 and i think you have to be someone who really loves it if you want to be a streamer and i think
00:36:01.640 you need to have a lot of energy that's contagious and magnetizing and you have to have you also have
00:36:07.120 to have really thick skin too because it's such a nasty space it can be because it's young because
00:36:11.500 it's a younger audience so like that chat is is filled to the brim with 14 to 18 year olds who
00:36:17.700 think like oh that person's a fat ass and is never you know what i'm saying and this person's
00:36:22.460 dreaming you just don't have time to like you can't take anything back nothing you cannot take
00:36:27.620 anything when it happens it happens so don't slip up don't as well that's that's where and you have
00:36:33.040 to be okay like you're gonna slip up especially if you're doing like uh what do they call it when
00:36:37.160 you do like the mafia thon or the subathon for hours you're doing 30 days straight you're gonna
00:36:42.220 slip up bro kai kai has not slipped up no but his homies do and he has his homies do sometimes
00:36:48.800 people on the stream will like say some kind of questionable shit and and he'll cut it he's very
00:36:53.880 responsible about it but he's but is it slipping up bro it's just life they wanted they want to
00:37:00.740 see you slip up it's like you slip up and then you keep going that's it well that's why if you
00:37:05.040 come into street into the streaming world like you decide if you stop and you let the trolls get
00:37:08.880 to you it's up to you 100 they will never you can't get canceled anymore it will never cancel
00:37:13.800 if you stop and you let it get to you then you're canceled yeah cancel yourself yeah facts but it's
00:37:18.380 like i i think people are okay with you messing up it's just one you have to own up to it that's
00:37:23.460 number one number two just gotta keep going and tell a story off of it facts or or learn like
00:37:29.360 that's that or learn and get better well it's a very that's a very human experience yeah bro no
00:37:33.480 one's no one's fucking perfect if you're a streamer there's a chance at some point you're
00:37:37.400 going to say something unfavorable or that's going to rub someone the wrong way even even just calling
00:37:43.020 it a mistake you know like maybe in some people's opinion but in other people it's not but if you
00:37:48.060 know you yourself deem it is just learn and grow from it and be be better which i think is a very
00:37:53.760 important and natural part of the human experience there's no there's no shame in that yeah i think
00:37:58.360 a lot of people are turned off when it comes to being a creator because they're afraid something
00:38:02.880 like that could happen yeah you have to have your first controversy huh no i've had it yeah when i
00:38:07.800 was going back and forth with speed 100 oh that was one thing i could say like that was definitely
00:38:12.260 looking back at the clips it hurts me to watch them because i'm like dang you were crying but
00:38:16.180 that that's the old ashton hall like playing video games you know i'm saying going back and forth with
00:38:21.080 my boys and me like i said i took the l i'm like dang we gotta go a little bit closer but he's not
00:38:26.400 gonna want to race me again i gotta sell him i gotta get under his skin so i just kept baiting
00:38:31.720 it baiting it baiting it like run it back because i wanted to get my people a better race
00:38:35.760 you get what i'm saying but that was definitely big l for sure but you're competitive too there's
00:38:40.620 like a little bit of a difference between you know you just want to you want to win you want
00:38:44.700 to show up and do the best you can yeah it's okay to lose but to go back and forth that's that's a
00:38:49.200 big l 100 so i mean it's not like crazy like some people have really got like done some crazy stuff
00:38:54.860 but that was the element for sure i i i hear you that was not like a controversy not a scandal
00:38:59.140 but it was definitely a time where like the internet was pointed at you um for a second
00:39:02.960 i think even we talked about it on the show or something a little bit i haven't really spoke on
00:39:07.480 it too much yeah i've said stuff i said stuff on like stream um but yeah bro you and speed are good
00:39:14.700 yeah we're solid so yeah um what was it like working with mr beast jimmy was cool you liked
00:39:20.380 yeah mr b's he uh i learned you know whoever can invest the most is gonna is gonna be winning
00:39:29.720 when it comes to time and money so if you have more time you're gonna be winning if you have
00:39:33.820 more money like if you if you can put more money into your stuff with time it's over if you're not
00:39:38.920 investing anything that's what i learned with streaming like i wasn't putting too much money
00:39:42.760 into it or time so it's like bro like i streamed with neon one day and he said what's the definition
00:39:48.220 of success to me and i said peace you know i'm saying but he said uh he wants to be the best
00:39:53.060 at what he does and i'm like dang like i'm competing with a guy like that like you know
00:39:58.780 if you're creating content your content needs to be up there with the best and he's putting all
00:40:03.580 his energy into streaming like that's what this content world is if you can't put time and energy
00:40:08.060 into it and money you're not gonna you're not gonna do that yeah fair i'd say i'd say that
00:40:12.480 goes for that goes for anything if you want to be if you want to be like good at it or even compete
00:40:16.220 at a at a level that's notable especially anything in uh content land everything is so uh
00:40:22.520 sorry that's my ai security team from my old house i don't know why they're calling me um
00:40:29.340 you have to be you have to be really good you have to be really good if you want to be a content
00:40:34.880 creator now because everything is so saturated do you think anybody can make it in the content
00:40:39.200 world the answer is oh you think like like anybody like i want to be a content creator
00:40:44.460 dude unfortunately my realistic answer i don't i don't think so no no i don't think so
00:40:49.900 not not not millions but like at least like a community of some sort and make a living off of
00:40:56.020 it like a you know something chill maybe maybe maybe that's possible you don't have to be the
00:41:01.020 biggest in the world but like okay um like obviously to your level i think that's like
00:41:09.100 lottery you know i'm saying most people aren't gonna do that i was i was born in the right
00:41:14.560 generation in history and i liked the thing that a lot of people like to consume i like to make
00:41:19.180 videos people like to watch it wasn't even popular no i'm not laughing at that i just i'm just
00:41:22.860 thinking about like this idea of like anybody making it i think anyone can do it to some extent
00:41:28.000 and make more money than what most people make that's really for sure like 20k yeah for sure
00:41:33.060 there's this trend on you on uh tiktok right now where people open the refrigerator and sugar on 0.81
00:41:38.120 my tongue tongue tongue man this girl bro she opened the refrigerator like three four times 1.00
00:41:44.480 she did it so good one video got like 10 million then another video got like 50 million then
00:41:49.540 another video has got like a hun her she went from i think like 10 000 followers on instagram
00:41:54.800 to like 1.2 million within three days from opening the refrigerator sugar on my tongue
00:42:00.280 tongue now she's got a million this just happened this week bro this is like an ongoing trend right
00:42:06.100 now she's like a latina girl i don't i can't remember my tongue yes that trend you should do
00:42:10.920 it you should don't do it i'm just kidding but but think about it but think about it but think
00:42:15.540 about it zero money invested zero time invested she's opened the refrigerator now how long is it
00:42:22.680 gonna last well that money is she gonna make lottery that doesn't happen but it happens it
00:42:28.420 happens sometimes though but the only reason not everyone can do that i'm saying everyone has
00:42:33.440 the opportunity to get on social media and make a living now to get on social media and be top you
00:42:40.440 know 10 obviously it's tough you know i'm saying you have to have money to invest you gotta have
00:42:43.880 more time another my last thing on it too is it's much easier it's much easier to make it here than
00:42:49.400 it is to make it last like to make it last bro bro we have watched we have sat on this couch
00:42:54.620 and watched 400 waves of streamers tiktokers instagram stars creators singers we've had the
00:43:01.260 we've interviewed every single one of them how many of them are still earning relevant seven
00:43:05.860 figures annually after they sat on this couch not very many bro like it's it's it's not it's
00:43:11.780 the hardest thing about this because because the appetite on the internet changes so rapidly
00:43:17.480 and the quality of the entertainer is dictated by their ability to evolve their content to stay
00:43:24.840 up to date with the current appetite of the internet if you don't just have to know how to
00:43:28.840 pivot that's it you know how to pivot and you don't burn out and you have a good team around
00:43:33.120 you bro this is it's another reason why i was wondering with your videos i'm like how how long
00:43:39.420 is he gonna be able to do this for like like how long is he gonna be able to do this morning
00:43:43.080 routine sprinting video and then you started incorporating some sketch elements to it and
00:43:47.420 there's like back in the day and i was like oh he's switching it up good good you have to you
00:43:53.320 gotta pivot bro people are gonna get tired of anything yeah so if you look at anybody who was
00:43:58.080 a meme or blew up like how many of them stay relevant for even half a year or even a year
00:44:03.500 i'm sorry i used to do it in my vlogs it's the entrance for my theme song hey yo i'm sorry i
00:44:10.260 got two shirts up on wwe shop fanatics right now i hate logan paul yes i am the one behind it
00:44:17.500 you're gonna monetize the haters and still humble because after all i am your humble king and i'm
00:44:22.120 to stay humble because i'm just that humble you can grab my shirts and all wwe merch hats
00:44:27.580 tees replica title belt superstar collections on wwe shop and fanatics get yours today
00:44:34.460 back to the show i always look at it like there's two there's two routes to victory
00:44:38.360 from a from a directional standpoint on the internet there's algo hackers mr beast is an
00:44:43.900 algo hacker you're a bit of an algo hacker a little bit i think you uh you know what people
00:44:48.580 want to see and give it to them i think i think you structure your content in a way that is really
00:44:54.720 suitable for instagram algorithm in fact i i took notes from your videos and and the podcast you
00:45:01.720 went on i think i think it was a podcast um you and ours i seen a clip of you uh yeah probably
00:45:08.620 talking about how you know in the first second when someone's scrolling on your feed you got
00:45:14.280 you got to get there yeah the hook and by the way like i know about the hook but i think i like
00:45:19.260 forgot about the importance of it i've just been like i don't know i'd like i stopped like really
00:45:24.520 considering like oh like this is really an oversaturated market now i have one second to
00:45:28.820 get your attention yeah and hearing you say and break it down for me really started making me
00:45:33.240 think about the first one to three seconds of my everything it's just to sell you're selling
00:45:37.540 them on why they should continue to watch your video the hook is everything so yeah for sure
00:45:42.300 you have to study content and be intentional unless your story doesn't matter you have a dope
00:45:46.280 story but if you don't know how to get it out then it doesn't matter can you tell can you tell me
00:45:49.700 about some of the other things for me i think it's the hook the story and then how they feel
00:45:54.280 leaving so it's like when you watch a movie do you feel good do you feel like you wasted your
00:45:58.760 time watching wait i wasted two hours i'm never gonna go back to this person again
00:46:02.700 fuck but if you feel good exactly that's what i say sometimes i do say that like i'll watch a
00:46:07.840 video and it doesn't give me a payoff and i'm like a minute into it and i'm like you know what i'll
00:46:11.040 never watch this person bro i'll never you're not getting your time back yeah so it's like how do
00:46:16.280 they feel when they left do they feel happier do they feel fulfilled they feel more motivated
00:46:21.400 so it's like the aha moment has to be there the hook is important in the storyline those three
00:46:26.120 things we focus on and then also not throwing extra plump in there like i want them to see what
00:46:31.640 they need to see and then they go on about their business what is the story when you're running
00:46:36.060 with the dogs the story with the dogs all right so it's like for me it's just when i first started
00:46:43.360 making the runs was like get off the couch like go work you know i'm saying you see this big
00:46:46.740 shredded dude just running fast down the street um but with the dogs it's more so like it's
00:46:52.020 entertainment it's entertainment 100 it's a little bit of entertainment it's also like being like
00:46:56.540 it's impressive maybe a little bit motivating so it's like the number one thing i do when i see
00:47:01.500 people and they're oh ashen hall like i'll greet them and i'll ask them like what they get from my
00:47:05.320 content oh cool and you know what we should you know incorporate more what you don't really like
00:47:10.280 like i want to get feedback so i could feel like so i could figure out how i could help you know
00:47:14.060 more of my community what responses do you get um they love the runs people love the runs uh they
00:47:21.480 say it makes them motivated um when it comes to they love the before and after like the skits
00:47:26.640 like you know like how my life was before yep and now because uh i think when i first started
00:47:33.320 like posting my content people just thought like oh he's he's just perfect like damn okay cool he's
00:47:37.940 up people don't really care about a perfect story they want to see where you came from so if you
00:47:41.340 came through something they love it right because they can relate it relate it to them their lives
00:47:45.620 um but yeah sorry uh it turns out the uh ai security caught someone uh outside my house
00:47:53.820 really yeah but it was just your house is it like that it was my old house um no no it was it was a
00:47:58.740 it was my groundskeeper so it's so it's all good but they're on their shit they're on their shit
00:48:02.320 it's my old house i was like damn i was i never want that much no no no no it's uh it's that's
00:48:06.700 oh you'd be surprised how little fame that type of stuff comes along oh yeah you had oh bro bro
00:48:11.340 oh no i've had i've had drones i've had everything drones drones i've had drones multiple drones
00:48:16.720 really how'd you do my old spot and my new spot drone the drones is i i don't fuck with the drones
00:48:22.720 at all that's that's that's fuck it's invasive that's probably like the biggest the biggest
00:48:28.120 thing for me i was like yo drone bro like drone yeah you know i'm saying yeah um but i mean bro
00:48:35.600 i post the content to go viral so i can't be upset you know i'm saying it's just what the
00:48:39.340 world is no you could be no you could be upset you could be upset that someone's trying to invade
00:48:43.320 your privacy really 100 but what is it gonna help if i'm upset no no i'm not saying you should be
00:48:47.920 but it's understandable to be upset if someone's invading your privacy but if i'm from that piss
00:48:51.660 I just stop posting
00:48:52.500 I go ghost
00:48:53.320 that's a champagne problem
00:48:55.700 that's what I call 0.96
00:48:57.220 a champagne problem
00:48:58.160 I think as being a human
00:48:59.240 like I'll be
00:49:00.100 like I'm maybe
00:49:00.860 a little bothered
00:49:01.420 for sure
00:49:01.900 so what would your
00:49:02.840 interaction look like
00:49:03.760 with the drone pilot
00:49:04.640 if you got
00:49:06.080 if you came outside
00:49:06.880 and there was
00:49:07.220 somebody out there
00:49:08.120 with the drone stick
00:49:09.020 nothing bro
00:49:10.100 you're not gonna whoop feet
00:49:10.900 no
00:49:11.480 hey man
00:49:12.740 I'm doing that
00:49:13.280 I have to get home
00:49:14.020 I saw you flying a drone
00:49:15.040 over my house
00:49:15.540 and I can understand
00:49:16.340 why you'd want to do that
00:49:17.340 because I make fire content
00:49:18.420 and then you just walk away
00:49:20.360 like that
00:49:20.920 That guy probably wouldn't even say anything.
00:49:22.460 You know what I'm saying?
00:49:22.900 Like, I got to get home to see Chris Hander, my mom.
00:49:25.480 I'm not having, I'm not going to fight a dude.
00:49:27.740 He didn't do anything.
00:49:28.520 Now, if he laid hands on, you know, my mom, it's done.
00:49:32.460 I killed him.
00:49:32.940 Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:49:33.620 100%.
00:49:33.860 Yeah, yeah.
00:49:34.680 But I think a stronger person just doesn't do anything.
00:49:37.900 Sorry, where's the drone?
00:49:39.020 Where is it flying?
00:49:40.020 It flew to my floor.
00:49:41.760 Oh, in a building.
00:49:42.980 Ooh.
00:49:43.300 Yeah.
00:49:43.780 That's hot.
00:49:44.160 Why didn't you pull the Drake shit with the sandal?
00:49:46.840 That wasn't a real idea.
00:49:48.700 If I throw something.
00:49:49.820 Say hi.
00:49:50.600 No, no, sorry.
00:49:51.700 It's a skit.
00:49:53.360 Yeah, yeah, no, I know that.
00:49:54.540 But I'm saying, why not just do that?
00:49:55.600 Just throw a fucking sandal at it.
00:49:56.580 Because then it falls and it hits somebody in the head.
00:49:59.220 And I'm liable.
00:50:00.040 It's only going to get worse.
00:50:01.060 Who's asking the whole sandal?
00:50:02.000 It's only going to get worse.
00:50:04.040 Bro.
00:50:04.400 I don't do anything.
00:50:05.280 No reactions.
00:50:06.280 Unless I have to defend myself or, like, somebody gets touched in my family.
00:50:09.980 Like, then I might not be able to control myself.
00:50:11.920 But I would say the stronger man, you know, just handles business the right way.
00:50:16.080 You know?
00:50:16.880 Can we talk about your physique, brother?
00:50:19.040 Yeah.
00:50:19.480 It's insane.
00:50:20.180 specifically any question you got let's run it those pythons i'm looking at right now bro
00:50:25.260 how you get biceps like your arms is just as big no they're not they are yours are crazy
00:50:30.300 normally i'm sitting on this podcast and i got the biggest buys those things are fucking crazy
00:50:35.900 yeah i was i was big like in high school bro 15 yeah i started lifting when i was like 11 12 i
00:50:42.000 was doing like 800 push-ups a night with my cousin 800 a night like 11 12 sets of like 20 to 50 yeah
00:50:48.800 probably go like 50 maybe like the first two sets if i can remember then we'll go down to like
00:50:54.200 30 getting tired we'll go down to 20 i did the card decks a lot so i was just like addicted to
00:51:00.020 just like lifting and working out at a very young age like i would watch movies and i'll be like
00:51:05.180 yep i'm gonna be like that guy what do you like about it i think it's just challenging i think
00:51:10.560 anything that we can do that most people can't do is just like you're just selling yourself that
00:51:14.840 you're a little bit better like you deserve more you get what i'm saying so it's like
00:51:18.960 yeah for me that's just dope did you did you find any workout that enhanced your physique more than
00:51:26.780 anything else like do you have a secret workout or something i mean i started i was addicted to
00:51:31.080 benching bench press yeah bench press what's your max uh 470 when i was 19 yeah 4 470 is your max
00:51:38.360 At 19.
00:51:39.500 That's good.
00:51:40.500 Now I could probably do like 405 for like two.
00:51:44.240 The other day I did 435 just maxing out just for the stream,
00:51:47.560 but I don't bench at all anymore.
00:51:48.840 What about your core?
00:51:49.840 Your core is crazy.
00:51:50.840 No, I don't do core.
00:51:52.180 Bro, hold on.
00:51:52.960 What?
00:51:53.560 Rarely will I do core.
00:51:54.580 I didn't do core probably for like 10 years.
00:51:57.720 So squat legs.
00:51:59.340 Because core is, I started doing core like now that I want to perform
00:52:04.840 a little bit better.
00:52:05.420 but you know core is just you're just growing the muscle but you got you got like a six-pack
00:52:11.580 and shit you don't have to do core bro we all have a six-pack you just might not see it
00:52:15.580 because of the diet so that's why i do no carbs and no carbs no carbs are for the core
00:52:20.600 yeah the diet is for the core bro what nah you don't train i do i know that you know that i do
00:52:29.200 a ton of core i do also eat a ton of shit yeah but you but you compete in sports though it's good
00:52:36.020 if you're competing balance you want to have a core but for the aesthetic like bodybuilders don't
00:52:41.060 train core like that and they definitely definitely not weighted wow yeah because your muscle is going
00:52:46.140 to expand so if you're looking to have a smaller waist you don't train core at all you just make
00:52:50.800 sure you're in a caloric deficit so you can lose the fat over the man see dude that's my thing so 0.90
00:52:55.400 In high school for wrestling, we'd cut weight.
00:52:58.840 And so I just really started to hate it.
00:53:02.340 And so anytime I'm hungry, man, I get hangry, and it just, like, isn't good.
00:53:06.980 Like, caloric deficits for me are just buzz kills.
00:53:09.620 Oh, you're not in one?
00:53:10.620 No, hell no.
00:53:11.780 Really?
00:53:12.580 Hell no.
00:53:13.060 Never?
00:53:13.840 Ever.
00:53:14.320 We went vegan for a year.
00:53:15.940 Horrible.
00:53:16.460 The worst year ever.
00:53:17.600 Horrible mistake.
00:53:17.660 I think you only made it, like, four months.
00:53:20.220 Before my body literally started to eat itself.
00:53:22.400 I couldn't get out of bed.
00:53:23.040 That shit was ass.
00:53:23.640 I had to take my leg.
00:53:24.880 have you been like jacked up um i got bigger since i joined the wwe because i started lifting
00:53:31.380 weights when i was boxing i was just training boxing bodyweight shit um but kind of similar
00:53:37.480 to what you were describing i've always had a pretty good physique um and my my arms specifically
00:53:45.860 like kind of curve like this like jorge told me the name of his it's like muscle
00:53:51.700 jorge what's it called the way the muscle attaches to your bone insertion um and so
00:54:00.100 then when i started working out it just kind of i filled out as an adult um
00:54:04.120 but it's funny because i've seen i've seen uh guys do videos on you
00:54:10.060 always talking about or like is he natty is he not and they'll bring up like old pictures and
00:54:14.620 shit and you know i was i was like also equally curious and yeah you you've had a crazy physique
00:54:19.760 for a while because they'll pull up your old pictures and be like what's the through line
00:54:24.040 when he was young and when he's when he's old yeah and like does this look like a natural
00:54:28.040 transition and and for years you'd at least what the guy said in this particular video
00:54:33.580 what i thought too they all say i'm not natty though well you definitely don't look natty bro
00:54:38.020 neither do i that's the goal like why you want to i don't want to look normal no bro if someone's
00:54:42.560 making a natty or not video about you you're doing something wrong yeah it's the same thing
00:54:47.940 the funniest realization bro yo there's only one person on these couches that's not natty bro
00:54:54.320 and it's not them and the one person you would never expect to be fucking yo that's so bad
00:55:01.500 no you look good no i suck bro holy shit no i'm on a really low dose because i'm 40 so i do 80
00:55:07.900 milligrams tested a week yeah yeah you look good 100 i mean you ain't see me with my shirt off
00:55:13.440 because you wouldn't be saying that.
00:55:15.960 No, no, I'm chill.
00:55:17.160 I'm chill.
00:55:17.860 I'm in the gym every day.
00:55:18.940 I'm in the gym every day,
00:55:19.600 but not like y'all.
00:55:20.580 Not like y'all.
00:55:21.380 I'm maintenance.
00:55:22.920 Maintenance.
00:55:23.300 I do it for mental health.
00:55:24.520 You know what I'm saying?
00:55:25.460 How long are you in the gym?
00:55:26.860 Yeah, not me.
00:55:27.260 Bro, 40 minutes.
00:55:28.500 You're in and out, dude.
00:55:29.720 Wow.
00:55:30.040 Locked in, though.
00:55:30.740 Locked in.
00:55:31.380 Sometimes.
00:55:32.800 But for me,
00:55:33.480 like when I first started,
00:55:34.660 addicted to the gym.
00:55:35.920 Yeah.
00:55:36.400 Addicted.
00:55:37.040 I'm the weight room warrior.
00:55:38.580 Yeah.
00:55:38.940 I'm in there longer than I need to be
00:55:40.500 because we only need like
00:55:41.400 45, 50 minutes on the weights.
00:55:43.200 Yeah.
00:55:43.440 you know i'm saying anything above that you're wasting you know you're wasting time you do
00:55:47.340 cardio i mean you do it try i sprint yeah yeah but i'm bored with cardio like if i do cardio i
00:55:52.540 have to be reading a book or something yeah so yeah it's chill i'll put on my headphones i'll
00:55:59.060 have the uh the audio version going and i'm reading at the same time i can do an hour i
00:56:03.680 love that what type of books do you like to listen to 10x rule how to win friends cardone
00:56:08.240 yeah yeah um who not how yeah i'm a big reader all business stuff no like heroin memoirs man
00:56:14.760 yeah it's no no no business yeah business when i read like my goal is to just get like a little
00:56:19.380 bit smarter yeah that's it my problem with reading has always been retaining the information yeah
00:56:25.060 yeah for me like i used to be in a competition like i read a whole book in a week you know i'm
00:56:29.060 saying but then i realized i need to slow down so yeah just slow it down just read one chapter only
00:56:33.700 that's that's that's a good idea i write down what i read so like while i'm reading i'll make
00:56:38.740 sure i'm underlining at least like three or four sentences per page and if i if i'm not i'm not
00:56:43.680 locked in so i read the page again and then what i underline i write it down sharp and then you
00:56:48.880 remember it you're like annotating the book yeah also what the one thing that has helped me actually
00:56:53.600 like actually finish a book for the first time in a decade is what you just said i will listen
00:56:58.240 listen to the audiobook as i read it yeah i'm not now i have two senses crazy putting information
00:57:03.040 No, it's the hack.
00:57:04.080 Yeah, it is the hack.
00:57:04.620 It's the hack.
00:57:05.260 Yeah.
00:57:05.540 You listen.
00:57:05.940 I don't read without listening.
00:57:07.300 It's such a good idea.
00:57:08.480 Such a hack.
00:57:09.280 I read and listen.
00:57:11.020 But yeah, I do cardio.
00:57:12.800 But for me, like the guys, I think the guys are just bored when they say like the steroid
00:57:17.220 accusations, like they have way better physiques than mine, like natty guys, 100%.
00:57:24.480 You get what I'm saying?
00:57:25.280 I do think there's like a genetic complexion or like a genetic play to some of it as well.
00:57:33.040 I know guys that are just like so genetically gifted.
00:57:38.680 They're just like physique freaks.
00:57:41.500 Wait, isn't that like 90% of it genetics? 0.51
00:57:44.260 I would say a lot of it.
00:57:46.320 Do you feel like, yeah, for sure.
00:57:48.900 Well, I think it's the foundation that you build to because I started at a young age.
00:57:54.320 if i started right now i would be i would be cooked oh me too if i started at 29 like things
00:57:59.160 are a little bit tough now yeah and now i just want to look great it's tougher i started when
00:58:03.880 i was 11 i was doing push-ups my brother had me doing sit-ups at five i've always been in sports
00:58:09.100 and i never took any time i took a year off at the most so it's like you know i would say that
00:58:14.640 plays more than genetics same exact shit my dad made me do push-ups since i was five years old
00:58:20.060 100 push-ups a day yeah i was so obsessed with working out when we'd have recess breaks um
00:58:26.460 in elementary school i'd be running laps and like climbing um the post on the on the playground to
00:58:32.160 like build my wait where are you from ohio oh ohio yeah wow where are you from here i'm from

00:59:36.880 talked a couple times but i want to connect with i'll put you on text with him yeah i want to
00:59:40.040 connect with him he's he's helped me with a number of things he's a fantastic man what's what's your
00:59:45.160 relationship with Jesus when did you become a Christian I grew up in a church yeah the my
00:59:51.060 favorite person in the world is my mom you know I'm saying she's so faithful and I just saw her
00:59:55.660 I saw the love she had for Jesus and I just knew I felt him at a young age but yeah that's what it
01:00:01.140 was and I fall short all the time you know 100% but I've always been like the guy like I have to
01:00:07.020 go to church on Sundays definitely not perfect but yeah it's always been like a thing that's
01:00:12.720 that, that makes me go a hundred percent. Has your relationship with God ever changed?
01:00:19.120 Um, yeah, I would say when I was younger, I was more so just like religious, more so kind of like
01:00:26.560 just by the book, like just right and wrong. Like I, I won't try weed just because I know it's wrong,
01:00:31.420 you know what I'm saying? But now it's like more of a relationship, you know what I'm saying? Like
01:00:35.040 I feel like my days aren't good unless I start with him praying and reading. That's half of the
01:00:39.100 reason why i started waking up early um but yeah for sure it definitely changed that like i would
01:00:44.340 say like the age of like 26 27 i was in church and um i was going to church in orlando i lived
01:00:50.500 in orlando for a couple years ty tribut and i was just in church and i was just uh just looking
01:00:56.520 around it's my first time in his service and i saw this guy he was like sagging you know i'm saying
01:01:02.380 just kind of looked like a little little beat and i'm like yo why are you sagging in church but he
01:01:07.480 was a cameraman and i was just judging like like it was really being judgmental like the religious
01:01:12.000 ashton and then ty started reciting a verse and it was a long verse i didn't know it at all but
01:01:18.820 this dude was reciting that verse the whole thing he was he was saying it with him and he didn't
01:01:24.620 have the words on the screen or anything i'm like you gotta check yourself like you don't even know
01:01:28.400 this verse but you're being judgmental so i just started like growing and getting more deeper like
01:01:32.800 that was like the thing i remember vividly and um from there i realized it's more about the
01:01:37.280 relationship rather than just like going off of the rules so like 26 27 i started changing a lot
01:01:42.800 100 sure has ever been a time where you felt uh a little maybe maybe angry at the universe
01:01:50.900 um maybe like more so i was always upset with maybe from myself not like with anyone else just
01:02:01.440 like myself because i know i could have gotten it you know i'm saying uh i would say like i was
01:02:05.760 more so down and out kind of depressed when i didn't make it to the nfl um not not not even
01:02:13.960 not making it to nfl i didn't i didn't even like get like a lot of tick in college or anything like
01:02:17.900 that um just because i wasn't locked in but i was mad at myself not anyone not anyone else
01:02:21.920 you you mentioned earlier you that you think you maybe could have went to the nfl yeah really
01:02:28.960 yeah 100 i don't feel like it's bro i mean would i have been like the next adrian peterson
01:02:34.820 Wait, wait, hold on, hold on.
01:02:36.300 Dude, I don't mean this to be disrespectful at all.
01:02:38.640 The stats, the stats, bro.
01:02:39.760 The stats.
01:02:40.480 No, is this correct, these stats?
01:02:42.540 Because he wasn't locked in, bro.
01:02:43.920 They really might be worse.
01:02:45.420 Bro, it says you finished your college career with just eight yards for six rushes.
01:02:50.140 That's a clip.
01:02:51.320 But no, 100%, I wasn't locked in, though.
01:02:54.040 I was not locked in at all.
01:02:56.640 Wait, how could you make it to the NFL with stats like that, bro?
01:03:00.480 I wouldn't have.
01:03:01.180 it's just you you're not even getting the game from when i was doing in college like i would
01:03:05.300 miss games i was not going to practice just because like i would feel some type of way about
01:03:09.580 not being the main guy not even really learning the playbook like if i put a lot of what i do
01:03:15.520 into my business right now into football i would have made it now am i going to be the next ap i'm
01:03:20.980 not saying that but i would at least have more of a chance so when i say like being mad i'm never
01:03:27.260 mad at the world or the lord i know it was it was on me so i kind of hold that grudge
01:03:32.140 so now that's still no no that's just a chip on my shoulder like i know i could pass over the
01:03:37.320 opportunity you use it you use it 100 it's not just having faith it's effort faith means nothing
01:03:41.980 without effort i had faith then but i didn't have the effort behind the faith you get what i'm
01:03:46.160 saying so maybe i think he kind of already asked this but like yeah i think you did but i'm just
01:03:52.920 gonna ask it again sorry you did it to me at the beginning yeah dude have you ever been on a podcast
01:03:57.860 so how do you get that discipline suddenly like mid-20s like like how all of a sudden
01:04:04.260 do you become incredibly disciplined to wake up at like 4 a.m i found my purpose
01:04:09.520 yeah what do you think that is at at the time before i was waking up at 4 a.m it was fitness
01:04:15.220 so you know during the season i was in i was okay cool like i found myself explaining how i got to
01:04:21.380 where i'm at for like hours and hours for free so i'm like okay cool like if this is what i'm
01:04:26.380 going to be willing to do for free i might as well monetize it so i feel like anybody can be
01:04:31.100 successful in this world is if you're doing something that you genuinely love to do like
01:04:34.620 you love content that's why you're successful so you know you're automatically going to put a lot
01:04:39.440 of time towards it's easier to get good at it because it's not a chore well also if the monetary
01:04:46.840 doesn't follow at least you still love what you're doing exactly you know you're still happy
01:04:51.560 you're still good yeah as long as you have a healthy relationship with it because it can get
01:04:55.680 unhealthy as well yeah totally um hey man do you have equity in saratoga water oh yeah we didn't
01:05:04.540 talk about that at all nah saratoga wasn't like a strategy to blow the company up at all i just
01:05:11.640 like saratoga it was such a big brand play for the company and i feel like the way that they
01:05:16.060 treated you was kind of fucked up bro no they didn't treat me bad we have some stuff cooking
01:05:19.600 oh yeah to send you free water yeah not with them but we have some stuff cooking in the back
01:05:24.160 man they should have water we have some stuff cooking why are you trying to give them no man
01:05:31.060 they should have done something nicer no no they wanted to bro they offered saw love to saratoga
01:05:35.420 they reached out to me fast before it would eat before it even became the morning routine like we
01:05:40.300 were going viral before that oh we're getting 100 200 million views before that but that was the
01:05:44.660 main takeaway from those videos was that saratoga it was the only it was the one thing that everyone
01:05:49.160 started putting in their videos yeah they started using it that was that had to be one of the most
01:05:54.000 like free user generated viral earned media all earned media of all time 100 yeah there's no salt
01:06:00.240 with that you know i'm saying there was a praying man behind saratoga that's all i say it's one of
01:06:04.400 those things that you could you could just never predict or like it just yeah there's no salt i'm
01:06:08.820 not upset at all bro my life changed completely i'm thankful um you did blow up really quick
01:06:16.100 yeah at least the way i saw it like even even the amount of instagram followers you climbed
01:06:20.900 in such a short amount of time dude what's it like to go that viral um what do you mean like
01:06:27.540 be more specific like okay um how does it feel to get that famous yeah in such a short amount of
01:06:35.720 time it was life-changing bro it was different like i can't even sit here and just say like
01:06:40.580 i ever thought it would get to this point um you know anywhere i go like you know recognize that
01:06:49.480 the move a lot different i never had to before you know i always been posting content but it
01:06:54.420 was always fitness content i was like oh you're the guy i'd be working out with you know i'm
01:06:57.540 saying like they don't even know my name they just know that they do my workouts um so to go
01:07:01.900 from that to knowing like having people know like my personal life like they know my heist they know
01:07:05.660 my college football stats and stuff like that college football stat bro don't be too generous
01:07:14.000 right but like from going to like okay cool like you know every now and then people give my props
01:07:19.740 cool whatever so like everyone knowing me it was definitely like a lot different but i'm thankful
01:07:25.380 that i'm happy you know i'm happy that you're actually a sick dude yeah i appreciate that
01:07:31.300 i'm telling you when you first started going viral i'm like who the fuck is this guy did i
01:07:36.340 seem like a bad person huh not a not a bad person i feel like the whole world just felt like i was
01:07:40.940 like the word the word i would have used would be like mysteriously one-dimensional i didn't know
01:07:46.200 i didn't know what i didn't know what was gonna end then you showed up here and you're just dope
01:07:50.000 and we probably already knew that from seeing other clips of other podcasts and i i knew it
01:07:54.180 when you started talking and and when i saw you interact with fans there was a video i saw about
01:08:00.260 you interacting with fans and you were just really nice to them and in my head i i have again done
01:08:07.200 this for a while i've seen a lot of people get as famous as you did in the short amount of time
01:08:11.560 and it gets through their head they think they think everyone owes them that they're entitled
01:08:16.720 to their position it's like no people who do what you do and who do what we do we owe it all to the
01:08:21.620 fans because if they're not watching we ain't shit and so for me it's like i don't it's hard
01:08:26.100 for me to understand how somebody can get to that point but for me like i know i i owe it to the
01:08:30.700 fans cool you know but i owe it to god it's not me fair i would have gave up years ago bro i would
01:08:36.300 not be where i'm at so i feel like what i have is like it's borrowed it's not from me so when
01:08:41.200 people come up and they're excited sometimes i feel like an imposter like bro i'm not even that
01:08:45.580 cool bro like i'm just ashton you know i'm saying like everything i have is from the lord so i think
01:08:51.200 that's what keeps it keeps it um you know in the right realm well that's that's another angle of
01:08:58.140 like your personality that people are now seeing more and more of you're you're very spiritual and
01:09:03.240 bro people love people love someone who um is respectful to and and praise to their god like
01:09:09.520 like it it shows a centeredness that i think a lot of people respect yeah and uh it's refreshing
01:09:17.480 it's refreshing to see someone get successful whatever that means um in such a short amount
01:09:24.580 of time as you did and still have a good head on their shoulders yeah you know i appreciate that
01:09:29.820 bro yeah yeah because if i if i didn't have uh my faith i for sure would have been like crashed out
01:09:35.500 something would have happened bad like it would have all flipped over so it definitely wasn't
01:09:39.880 just like me waking up at 4 a.m that brought the success yeah yeah yeah just watch a caffeine
01:09:44.520 intake bro it's a lot of caffeine yeah it's bad it's tough it's tough it's hard for me bro it's
01:09:49.700 like i know half of the time i'm just craving something sweet um but that's definitely something
01:09:54.800 that i've been dealing with for years yeah years yeah interesting when you see the stories of
01:09:59.080 people like actually dying and stuff like that it's like when i saw that i'm like oh shoot like
01:10:04.180 relax bro so i know it's something that you gotta kind of like i think because caffeine is good for
01:10:10.420 you yeah a little bit a little bit for sure 400 milligrams yeah but when you start going above
01:10:15.020 the limit it gets bad yeah because i'm just in work mode but i like to lock in i love to be
01:10:20.640 locked in fair i'm addicted to that good bro yeah that's that's a good addiction because the yield
