00:00:00.000 to you and maybe what are some strengths and things he does that the rest of the world doesn't
00:00:05.060 see that you know. Andrew is the hardest working man I've ever met. Even with the lifestyle he
00:00:11.620 lives now and as fun as it looks and it is fun and all the fun shit we do is real. Even if we 0.97
00:00:17.340 are in a luxury hotel in the south of France where you're paying $10,000 per room, Andrew
00:00:23.180 will be up at 7 o'clock in that hotel gym. He'll message me at 8.30. I'll wake up next to God
00:00:28.500 and those who whiskey spilled all over the desk but again that inspires me and he'll be like
00:00:33.560 emergency meeting in my room. Emergency meeting we always say that. So I'll go to his room and he'll
00:00:38.860 bring up tiny issues with the business that you know I could have slept on quite happily but again
00:00:44.920 it's like me doing the exercise when he won. It pushes me to be a better person and Andrew will
00:00:49.260 happily work 15-16 hours a day and then go out and spend four or five hours having fun and blowing
00:00:55.280 loads of money. It doesn't come from the sky. It's not magic. We're not trust fund kids. We didn't
00:00:59.440 win the lottery. He is the hardest working man I have ever met and the fact that I can even live
00:01:05.380 with him and try to keep up is a testament to me. It's difficult. You know because it's constant. Yeah
00:01:12.360 and people don't see the work. People don't see the work. I mean me and Andrew are in good shape. I
00:01:17.340 don't post training videos and you know fitness progress videos. I just do the work and let the
00:01:23.480 results speak for itself. In terms of money and in terms of business and success that's
00:01:26.820 Andrew. Everyone's like oh how does he have all this money? Maybe he's a criminal. You
00:01:31.020 know so how does he have all this money? I know why he has all this money because he's sitting
00:01:35.000 right there at that desk at least 10 hours a day even when we're not on house arrest.
00:01:38.660 He'll be out in the evenings having his fun. And that's what they don't talk about. There
00:01:44.060 is a cost of success like when you are when you're around like top earning people it's not
00:01:49.920 like it's interesting because like people from a lower socioeconomic status like if you look
00:01:56.940 at it in a different perspective they could be richer in and when it comes to time right
00:02:01.260 because okay they have all this stuff but half the time you know rich people don't even get
00:02:07.440 to use it like you think because they are so freaking busy. And that's what happens the like
00:02:12.480 more and more wealthy and the more and more successful you get is it starts to be like a money versus
00:02:17.340 time type of thing and a lot of people want a lifestyle like that but they don't want they
00:02:22.440 don't I don't think a lot of people could really handle what comes with it. And that's what we'll
00:02:27.460 show to the world. This whole hey look at me I'm at my laptop and I'm gonna grind away for six hours
00:02:31.860 like that's no one wants to see that on Instagram no one wants to see that on social media it's boring
00:02:36.840 they want to see you driving the Bugatti with a cigar in your mouth and a beautiful girl next to you
00:02:40.560 but that doesn't come without sitting at that desk for a good while first. When's the last time you told
00:02:45.960 Andrew no meaning hey I have an idea here's what I want to do I'm the hardest working man in the
00:02:51.200 world here's what I'm doing I have an agenda and you go no bad idea let's do this instead. Do you
00:02:57.880 ever tell him no how does this work in this relationship? I guess the answer to your question
00:03:01.660 would be tell Andrew no why. You know we're two men with the exact same vision aiming for the exact
00:03:08.380 same goal. It's that old saying with great power comes great responsibility. So telling Andrew no
00:03:15.760 you have to understand I'm the only person in the world who can tell him no. Ever since dad died it's
00:03:21.100 me and that's it. So I'm not going to use that power over something trivial over something that
00:03:26.580 is a recommendation. If I don't think he should do something I just know when he really really
00:03:32.980 shouldn't do something and then I'll say no but I can't I literally can't think of an example. I
00:03:37.680 can't. No I can't see I can't think of an example I've told Andrew no in the last couple years.
00:03:44.080 That's the dynamic of the relationship between the two of you guys. Indeed but he's also the only
00:03:48.120 person who could tell me no and he doesn't really tell me no for anything. You know I'm still a 34
00:03:52.980 year old man little brother or no he's 36 I can make my own decisions and none of us have the 0.99
00:03:57.920 tendency to ever do anything that's really stupid. So. At the peak who was 0.99
00:04:02.680 funner to party with? Oh I've always been the funnest to party with. Really? I'm still. I'm still. Oh my gosh that's how I was introduced to the Tates. I saw a cheating party. It was someone. It was someone in my comments probably someone's still here now. I was like I'll react to this video as a cheating party. I was triggered. I was very much triggered. It was pretty funny though. We should react to it again. I'm still the fun one to party with today. No no no don't worry about the peak. I haven't reached my peak yet. Like I'm still working on it. I'm still working on it. I'm still working on it. Yeah. I'm the one. Andrew. I'm
00:04:32.660 the kind of guy I definitely take the party a bit too far. I'll give you an example. Go out to the club. There's five guys. Fifteen girls. We're all having fun. We're all partying etc. We'll come home and you'll be like okay well this is the girl I'm with. I'm gonna go to bed. It's 3 a.m.
00:04:47.660 I know I could go to bed with one of these women at any one time. Back in my party days I've calmed down a bit on the womanizing. I really have. And he'll be in bed at 3. I'll still stay up till 6. Drinking with the guys. Because I think let me squeeze the maximum amount of fun out of this night as possible. So obviously it gets ruined when it gets to 6 o'clock and the girl I like is now asleep or home. It's like oh wait well. You know I'll definitely mess that one up.
00:05:17.660 Back to biking sometimes. When's the last time you partied? You've been in jail. You haven't had one day of freedom. No. No. Right. You guys are known as these kickboxing badass womanizing party guys. But Andrew's been very subdued. He's converted to Islam. Well yeah. He's not drinking. No he doesn't drink anymore. He's completely quick. When's the last time that you had a fun night out of the town? A fun night out in the town I don't know.
00:05:47.660 I'm going to say his name. His name's Bailey. I'm going to say it. I don't care. He wants to say it. He can't censor out. Don't give him editorial control. So he got here. I thought you know what? Bailey's here. That's something new. You know I've been locked in jail now. I'm on house arrest. Let's open a bottle of champagne. Don't worry Bailey. Just one. Four bottles of champagne later. Bailey's like wishing for death. I'm like you know okay. I'm going to sleep. But we stayed up all night talking politics history. Very very interesting things along with my coach. My physiotherapist Alex who hates drinking by the way. But he'll partake sometimes.
00:06:17.660 And you know it was just three guys together talking about. I feel like it's the way things should be. And the way things certainly were before mobile phones. Nowadays everyone's too connected digitally. They speak to each other online too much. Everyone whatsapps each other. Checks on their friends that way. I like sitting around with my friends. And just drinking and talking. And having a good time. And learning new things from them. And telling them new things that they don't know. I find that to be incredibly fulfilling. So. You were saying intrus. You said cutters. You collect cutters and all this stuff. I collect cigar lighters and cigar accessories.
00:06:47.600 I'm a nerd about my cigars. I'm a real nerd about it. I tried my first cigar. When I was 28. And now that I smoke a lot of cigars. People will accuse me of saying. Oh well you try to teach values. But you encourage smoking. I don't encourage smoking. These are bad for you.
00:07:00.940 But if you do them. Train really hard in the gym. Be as fit and strong as possible. At least try to compensate the damage. But yeah. I'm a nerd about my cigars. I smoked my first one when I was 28. I had a car crash. Which stopped me from professionally fighting.
00:07:13.180 I had some surgery. A year and a half ago. To fix all that damage. Finally. But I thought I can't fight anymore.
00:07:19.800 Put a one in the chat. If you like cigars. One in the chat. Also guys like the video. We're at 156 likes. There's 600 of you in here. I like it's free. Like the video.
00:07:29.660 I've always thought cigars looked cool. I'd never smoked a cigarette. Or any kind of tobacco product. Up until that point.
00:07:34.360 And I walked into the cigar lounge. I thought oh yeah. This big Cuban cigar. Let me buy one of these. I had some money even back then.
00:07:39.000 When I was 28. And I got this cigar. Got about halfway through. And my head was spinning. I don't know how I drove home. I felt horrible.
00:07:45.480 But yeah. Now I smoke two, three cigars a day. Sometimes. Some days I'll go without smoking. But the accessories are what make it cool.
00:07:53.460 You know. Even here on the table. These have been here since your podcast with Andrew. But it's the lighters I like. The cutters I like. I'm a real nerd about it.
00:08:01.020 Before going out. I'll pack my cigar cases. Etc. Ready for the club. Yeah.
00:08:04.960 What's your preference? What do you go to? What's your go to cigar?
00:08:07.380 Cigar. My favorite cigar is actually. So you have to liken them to champagne. Because most people won't know what we're talking about if we do cigars. So I'm going to make it more interesting.
00:08:17.480 People who don't know champagne will say yeah give me some Dom Perignon. Every single time. I don't even like champagne. I don't like any champagne. But there are old Frenchmen who know that there's a Veuve Clico.
00:08:27.660 I'm not a big drinker. But if I do. It's got to be sweet. It's got to be like pure sugar. Just pure diabetes. Liquid diabetes. That's it. I'm an American. I am true to my roots of obesity and diabetes. But we work out. It's all right.
00:08:47.300 That's better than the Dom Perignon if it's the right year. Etc. So with cigars everyone goes Cohiba. When you can buy Cubans when you're outside of the United States. Cohiba is the Dom Perignon of cigars.
00:08:56.580 It's got the yellow label. Everyone likes Cohibas. But this is not my favorite brand of cigar. But my favorite is H. Upman. Now they have a European name even though they're Cuban.
00:09:05.520 Because a German businessman started that company in 1848. Cohiba was founded in 1966. It has much more history behind the brand. A much better quality cigar in terms of build and flavor. And they're about half the price.
00:09:19.940 But me smoking H. Upman's is not a budgetary decision. I mean I'll buy cigars from the 1950s and smoke six, seven thousand dollars cigars just because I enjoy them. But H. Upman are by far the best brand. Hands down.
00:09:30.440 Can I give a quick shout out real quick? Sure. I only smoke cigars with two people. Their last name is either Tate or Cipolla. Okay. So shout out to Matt Cipolla by the way. He's going to love this. He's going to love this. You're going to love this. The finest of gentlemen. The Tates and the Cipollas. That's it. That's a quick shout out. I very rarely smoke cigars. But if I do it's with the Tate and Cipolla.
00:09:53.860 Well actually Matt Cipolla did a Menecht call with Andrew last time I think using Menecht. Yeah. And had a good conversation together.
