00:00:00.000
I can stack them honeys to the roof. I ain't stopping till they stack to the moon.
00:00:05.000
Without me, my family wouldn't have food. Anybody go against me gotta lose.
00:00:12.500
What is up guys? You're listening to the MFCEO Project. I'm Andy. I'm your host and I am the motherfucking CEO.
00:00:19.500
Guys, today we have an awesome show. We have a guest who's actually been on our show before.
00:00:25.420
He is the host of an extremely popular podcast called Order of Man.
00:00:30.740
He's also the author of Sovereignty, which is an amazing book on how to take responsibility for your life.
00:00:37.800
If you've read books like Extreme Ownership and things like that, you're going to love this book.
00:00:43.060
He's a good buddy of mine and I'm going to introduce him right after I get to my buddy, Vanilla Ice.
00:00:57.000
I'm glad you called me on that because you're definitely not my buddy.
00:01:01.600
Yeah, that's good. No, I'm good, man. Thanks for calling me Vanilla Ice. It's kind of phasing out the other things that you've given me.
00:01:13.000
Yeah, that's a good one. I like how you always give the echo.
00:01:17.540
Dude, if we don't do the echo, it's not legitimate.
00:01:20.280
If you're a DJ, you've got to have the echo on.
00:01:22.400
Absolutely. So I am curious with our guest. I mean, he's got a pretty amazing beard going on here.
00:01:32.400
I let it go about three inches longer than to bring it up, but I think we started the last podcast just like this too.
00:01:43.780
As a lot of you probably guessed, because I know you listen to his podcast, which you should,
00:01:48.340
we're here with Ryan Mickler. It's good to see you, man.
00:01:52.480
Just life. Everything's been going on, man. The thing's blown up. The book's doing good.
00:01:56.880
You look like a completely different person, which is awesome.
00:01:59.980
It has. I think last time I was out here was about a year and a half or so ago.
00:02:03.840
Yeah, I had just started getting my shit together.
00:02:07.460
Thanks, man. I've been hitting it. I'm down about 100 to 110 pounds, depending on the day.
00:02:14.040
For me, dude, I can weigh literally 10 pounds different depending on-
00:02:18.440
If I eat things with a lot of sodium or if I don't drink enough water, it'll be a 10-pound swing.
00:02:24.660
My wife gets pissed at me because she's doing the diet thing right now too. I'll tell her,
00:02:29.580
hey, I'm down three pounds the last couple of days. She's like, what? How do you do that?
00:02:34.680
I'm like, I don't know. I think guys can just do that.
00:02:36.520
Well, the bigger you are, the easier you can fluctuate.
00:02:40.820
But yeah, man, it's good. As you know, and you talk about in your book, taking responsibility
00:02:47.280
for whatever area you are is really a practice and discipline. And I think for me, people see
00:02:55.480
the physical change, but the reality is that it's been way better in every other area because
00:03:00.420
it's sharpened that skill, you know what I mean? That discipline skill.
00:03:05.080
Well, what I found is you can't make a decision in a vacuum, right? So if you improve in this area
00:03:09.800
of health, for example, then every other area, because it's the same skill set required here
00:03:13.560
as it is over here in relationships or business or whatever.
00:03:16.060
Dude, which kills me, man, because we're in the fitness industry and I see so many people
00:03:19.840
who have this amazingly fit physique and the rest of their life is shit. Like it's total
00:03:25.160
shit. And I'm just like, bro, you've obviously perfected these skills. All you have to do
00:03:29.980
is apply them over here. You know what I mean? Like that doesn't take a whole lot to figure
00:03:35.100
out. You know what I mean? But I guess it's the same for somebody who's got their business
00:03:39.140
together and their fitness sucks. They don't realize that the same skills can literally be
00:03:43.680
applied over in a different area and you're going to win.
00:03:46.180
I mean that or they get obsessed too, right? Like you, you can take something that's
00:03:49.780
positive and take it over too. Exactly. Dude, fitness is not meant to be, it's not meant
00:03:55.020
to be a fucking profession. It's meant to improve your life so you can do other stuff.
00:03:58.800
That's right. That's what I was going to ask. Do you think in those cases, Andy, is that
00:04:01.540
a case where somebody is living to train rather than training? Dude, I see a lot of people
00:04:05.680
with addiction issues that they're like, they're like at one point you'll see them and they've
00:04:09.620
been, you know, um, a substance abuser or they've been, say they've had some sort of
00:04:15.320
addiction and you see them turn to fitness and literally make it fucking a new,
00:04:19.420
the new addiction. Exactly. You know, and like, dude, there could be worse things that
00:04:22.220
you're addicted to because I think people that have that addictive personality could
00:04:26.300
be addicted in any area, you know? Um, Grant Cardone actually talks about this cause he
00:04:31.620
was talking about the be obsessed or be average. He's like, man, I was screwed up and I just
00:04:35.320
redirected that obsession and you turn into healthy shit, right? Like, so I'm not saying
00:04:39.580
that's a bad thing. I'm just saying I see a lot of that and you know, you could take
00:04:44.340
those people and take that same obsessive nature and turn it into other things that would
00:04:47.960
benefit them even more. Sure. You know what I mean? I don't think there's anything wrong
00:04:50.760
with that when you turn it on to healthy things. I just say, I was simply stating that I observed
00:04:54.800
that. Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah. And it's what do you want to write? Like, like
00:04:58.400
I want other stuff. Like I want to be with my family. I want to hang out with you guys.
00:05:01.820
I want to do other things too. In addition to being at the gym or whatever. One of the interesting
00:05:05.340
things though about fitness, when people become addicted to it, in my experience is that
00:05:09.400
that's all they want to talk about. Well, that's like anything usually. You take an alcoholic,
00:05:14.260
all they want to talk about is going to the bar. You take someone who does cocaine, all
00:05:17.340
they want to talk about is partying all night. You know, what party, what's the next party?
00:05:20.980
What's the next this? I think that, you know, I think that's pretty normal. You know, if
00:05:25.740
you've got somebody who's abusing heroin and they're fucking addicted to heroin, they're
00:05:28.700
talking with their heroin buddies. You just don't hear it. Right. You know what I mean?
00:05:31.580
Right. So I think that's pretty par for the course. Yeah. You know, people get dug into
00:05:34.960
one thing and they're into it. Like, you know, gun people, like they're into guns. Like
00:05:39.220
I know friends, like I like guns, I love them, but they're not my fucking life. That's all
00:05:42.500
I want to talk about. You know what I mean? Like we see this with everything. Um, you
00:05:47.200
know, it's fuck dude. Like for me, cars, like all I ever want to talk about is really cars.
00:05:52.500
Like, yeah, I talk about business shit cause I love it and I'm kind of addicted to that
00:05:56.380
game. But you know, if you get me in a car conversation, I won't fucking shut up. You
00:06:00.980
know what I mean? Like I'll keep going and going and going and going. And, and, um, you
00:06:06.520
know, I think we all have the tendency to get way more involved in things than what we
00:06:11.100
probably should. Right. You know what I mean? Yeah. Good and bad. Or think that other people
00:06:14.620
care about it as much as we do. Yeah. It's like, dude, I don't want to hear about that
00:06:17.600
anymore. Dude, dude, it's, you know, being, you probably get this a lot just because, you
00:06:23.380
know, you're somewhat of a public figure. You've grown your podcast. You're, you're, I mean,
00:06:27.180
fuck dude, it's grown tremendously since you came on the show. You're killing it. And, uh,
00:06:32.380
that's because I came on the show. Of course. It's all me, bro. It has nothing to do
00:06:36.240
with you. Yeah. So, uh, so, um, I think, you know, people will hear you though. People
00:06:46.120
hear me that they like, cause they go overboard with shit. Right. Like they hear me and they
00:06:50.520
hear me, they see, they're trying to like connect. Right. Right. So like they hear a certain
00:06:55.480
thing or this or thing or, and like, I could say it in passing. And then when I meet them,
00:06:59.080
that's what they hang on to and want to talk about. And I'm like, bro, like, let's just not
00:07:04.320
do that. You know what I mean? Let's be fucking normal. I'm a normal motherfucker.
00:07:08.100
Vaughn and I were actually talking about this at lunch is, and I know you guys talk about the
00:07:11.480
Astro Coles, right? And these guys who come up with all the exceptions and all the things
00:07:15.220
I've come to a point where I just block people like that. Dude, I don't, what was your phrase
00:07:18.800
you said today? I liked that phrase. I don't have enough time to tell you everything. I don't
00:07:22.720
mean, dude, dude, I had a lady come on my fucking, uh, post the other day and say, I was,
00:07:31.220
it was a post where I was sitting on the truck with that fucking, uh, revolver.
00:07:34.580
And it said, it said the fucking post was a joke. Oh yeah. On the bottom. I saw that
00:07:39.060
everyone who gets in your way. And then it's just kidding. Don't do that. Yeah. Right at
00:07:43.060
the bottom. It's a fucking joke. And this lady goes, that's a very triggered post considering
00:07:48.920
there's so many mass shootings in America. It's very irresponsible. Some shit like, you
00:07:53.540
know, and you know what, dude, then get the fuck off my page. Right? Like I don't fucking
00:07:57.780
need people like that on my page. And then there are people will be like, when I say something
00:08:01.420
back to them, smart ass or put their comment, they'll DM me and be like, Oh bro, you got
00:08:05.940
to resort to put me on blast. Bro, you got to resort to being a fucking idiot on my page.
00:08:11.460
Like, listen, I understand that I've got a lot of followers and that I should probably
00:08:16.340
behave more mature. But the fact of the matter is I'm just not. And if you fucking dumb, do
00:08:20.700
some dumb shit on my page, I'm going to fucking put you on blast. I'm going to make you look
00:08:24.640
stupid. And you know what? Everybody that follows me, like all of us listening right
00:08:28.360
now are probably going to fucking say you're an idiot too. You know? So like if you're looking
00:08:33.320
for attention and you're looking for somebody to just blast you and get in your DMS and
00:08:37.580
tell you you're a fucking idiot for a week, feel free to comment some dumb shit on my page.
00:08:41.040
I'll put it up in my story and you'll fucking hate your life. You have to change your Instagram.
00:08:46.040
Like, dude, I just don't have time for this shit no more. Like I don't, I'm not going to
00:08:50.580
argue with you. I'm not like, uh, like dude, I fucking saw, I had some people that picture
00:08:55.660
I posted with myself and all the girls a few days ago. Like I had people do two things.
00:09:00.900
One, they're like, Oh, what's your fucking wife think about that? Well, my wife was five
00:09:05.700
fucking feet away. Sorry. I'm not, you know, with some fucking jealous hag who fucking bust
00:09:12.260
my balls about everything. Secondly, I'd have, I have, I had a few people be like, Oh, that's
00:09:17.120
very interesting. You know, where's the diversity? Oh, well, I'm sorry that I took a picture with
00:09:23.980
like nine of my white fucking friends. I'm sorry if that offended you. Okay. One was Japanese.
00:09:28.940
If you think that that fucking reflects the diversity, dude, we're the most diverse fucking
00:09:33.780
company when it comes to fucking who represents our brand and athletes then of any company.
00:09:39.740
And you know what? I don't pick people because of their race. I pick them because of the quality
00:09:45.540
of human. I don't buy in to force diversity. Yeah. I don't buy into it. And people think they're
00:09:51.140
going to fucking guilt me into saying, Oh, well you should have really should I have people
00:09:55.820
just because they have a different color skin on my team. That's the only reason I should have
00:10:00.620
them on my team. That's racist. I don't know what fuck it is. That's racism. You know what I'm
00:10:05.160
saying? Like I don't see people like that. I don't think about people like that. I pick the quality
00:10:10.480
humans who share our core values and could do the best fucking job. And you know what? Coincidentally,
00:10:15.700
we are the most fucking diverse company because I look at it like that. Right. So I don't need you to
00:10:21.260
tell me about diversity. When I take a picture with nine of my wife, I didn't even fucking notice
00:10:25.780
it until people started saying it out. And I'm like, you know what, dude, that right there is
00:10:30.800
the fucking problem. You're making it such an issue with every fucking thing that other people won't
00:10:36.060
listen to your fucking voice. You get what I'm saying? Yeah. It's like people like dude, fucking
00:10:40.760
10 years ago, if you got called a racist, it was like the worst thing ever. Like you would do
00:10:45.280
fucking anything to avoid it. Now it gets thrown around so loosely that people call you racist and
00:10:50.560
you fucking laugh about it. You're like, Oh fuck. Yeah. I'm fucking racist. Clearly. You know what
00:10:54.380
I mean? Like it's a fucking joke now because it's overused. It's thrown around and it's applied to
00:11:00.140
situations where it has nothing to do with relevancy. Right. And we have, we have fucking a
00:11:05.620
situation now where that whole fucking term has now diluted its meaning to where it can't even be
00:11:10.920
effective to make a fucking argument when in cases there really is that situation going on.
00:11:15.280
And dude, well, it's the same thing with that. Uh, the me too movement with the me too movement,
00:11:20.440
which is legitimate with these women that are, that are coming out and been sexually assaulted
00:11:23.880
and there's legitimate cases. And yet there's other women who are abusing that and it takes
00:11:28.260
away from what this really means. That's right. That's right, dude. And, and you know, I don't,
00:11:33.820
I don't really care what people fucking think. Like the people who know me and people who are
00:11:37.940
fucking around my company know how we operate and know that we fucking love and take in people that
00:11:42.420
align with our core values, no matter what the fuck they look like. That's the
00:11:45.240
whole basis of our fucking brand. Okay. But you know, I, the truth is, is I don't buy
00:11:52.580
into forced diversity. I think it's fucking bullshit. I think that the, you should, I think
00:11:56.940
that, do I think that there's people who oppress on racial issues? Absolutely. Sure. There's
00:12:01.380
fucking sure is, but there's far more that don't. And by fucking trying to force that shit
00:12:06.500
into people's fucking face, it gives them a bad taste in their mouth. It's just reality.
00:12:10.840
You know, especially when you're trying to do the right thing and you're doing the right thing.
00:12:14.620
And then you get people that are fucking saying, Oh, where are the fucking black people at in your
00:12:18.660
photo? Well, you know what, motherfucker? They were also standing five fucking feet away. It just so
00:12:23.360
happened that randomly they weren't in the fucking photo. So, so now I've got to fucking worry about
00:12:29.220
what the fuck I do and who I take pictures with. So I got to like, so you're telling me I got to look
00:12:34.900
around and be like, Oh man, there's no fucking black people. I better get some black people in
00:12:38.260
here. Otherwise I'm fucking racist. Right. The fuck out of here. You know what I'm saying?
00:12:42.380
I know what you're saying about that is anybody who makes those comments, what do you think their
00:12:46.140
life is usually like? Yeah. Everything is fucking everything that they fucking have. Those people
00:12:52.040
that make that shit, every fucking art, every bad thing that happens to them, every fucking job they
00:12:57.860
don't get, every promotion they don't get, every fucking traffic ticket they get. It's because of
00:13:03.720
racism. Sure. I didn't get the fucking job because I'm black. I didn't get the fucking job
00:13:08.020
because I'm Asian. I didn't get the job because I'm American Indian. They passed me over for a
00:13:12.580
while. First of all, motherfucker, you know what business people fucking care about money? You know
00:13:17.800
what I, you know how to, you know how much I don't give a fuck about what color it is. Then people's
00:13:24.780
skillset. I want to fucking win. I don't give a fuck if you're an alien, if you could come in and do
00:13:29.760
the job better than everybody else, you're getting fucking paid. Right. And most businesses are like
00:13:34.480
that. You know why? Because there's a certain element of fucking greed and you want to make
00:13:39.080
fucking money. And that's reality. I want to make the most money I can fucking make. And I don't give
00:13:44.020
a fuck what color you are. If you are the best for the job, you're getting a fucking job. And I get
00:13:49.800
it. Not everybody's like that. I get it. It's interesting. You're talking to one in a, you're
00:13:53.700
talking one out of every fucking 1000 people. Right. You know what I'm saying? So when you
00:13:59.120
fucking punish the whole fucking group of people and that people will say, well, Andy, you don't
00:14:03.820
know what it's like to be a minority. You know what? I fucking don't, but I know what it's like
00:14:08.260
to look like a fucking idiot and have people look at the ground when they see your face. Cause it's so
00:14:11.820
fucked up. I know what it's like for people to fucking whisper behind your back. Cause your face is
00:14:16.140
deformed. I know what it's like to fucking get stabbed in the fucking face because a fucking dude
00:14:21.700
called the girl that I was with a fucking nigger. I know what that's like. That's how I got fucking
00:14:27.500
stabbed. And for those motherfuckers to come and call me racist, fuck you. I almost fucking died for
00:14:32.880
that shit. Fuck you. You come on my page and say that shit, you're getting fucking blocked.
00:14:38.480
I paid my fucking price for that. I'm fucking, I am the fucking person who is on everybody's fucking
00:14:44.820
team. Not the person that you yell at about no black people in the fucking picture because I happen to
00:14:50.360
take a picture, picture with a bunch of fucking white people. It's bullshit. And I'm sorry if
00:14:55.140
that offends you, get the fuck off my podcast to get the fuck off my page. It's the truth.
00:14:59.600
So anyway, it just irritated me. You know what I'm saying? I get it. I get it. I got to be
00:15:04.400
conscious of fucking who I take a picture with the fuck out of here. You know what I'm saying?
00:15:09.500
Yeah. I think people are finding, they're just fine. I mean, everything they can be offended
00:15:13.320
about, right? Problem either. It's an everybody problem. It's there's fucking white people like
00:15:17.440
this. There's fucking Asian people. It's not a racially exclusive. Sure. There's just people who
00:15:21.860
will find a fucking problem with everything you do. Yep. 50% of the people who follow you on
00:15:27.500
Instagram, not, not just you, Ryan, but any of you listening, the ones who don't comment, the ones
00:15:32.800
who fucking don't like your shit, but they follow you. You never see them comment. You never see
00:15:36.700
them like your shit until you do something that makes them upset. Right. That's when you hear from
00:15:41.660
them. That's 50% of the people that follow you. They are hoping for you to fuck up so that they
00:15:46.200
can say something. Now, with that being said, I did have a good conversation with a man,
00:15:50.520
one of the men who said that about race and I explained my side of it and he was very
00:15:54.300
fucking civil about it. And we had, you know what? I started following him because I'm like,
00:15:58.340
all right, this guy gets it. He can have a conversation like an adult. Sure. But 90% of
00:16:01.920
the people that are not like that. They're, they're just looking for you to fuck up. They're looking
00:16:06.200
for you to say something. Like I blocked a guy yesterday. He was like, he's like, Oh, in quotes,
00:16:14.480
he's like, I'm Andy. And I got to say fuck so that I could sound manly and be an alpha male.
00:16:18.260
And I'm thinking in my head, I'm like, I'm thinking in my head, I'm like, first off my
00:16:23.080
fucking podcast is called motherfucking CEO. My license plate on my fucking Rolls Royce says MFCEO.
00:16:31.740
If the word fuck bothers you, this may not be the show place for you. Like, I'm sorry that I'm not
00:16:39.200
going to, to curtail who the fuck I am and speak a way that appeases your fucking ears because you
00:16:46.000
don't like the way I talk. I do. Do I talk like this every fucking where I go ever to every,
00:16:51.720
is this how I talk or am I be putting on a show? This is actually kind of light.
00:16:55.660
I mean, this is who the fuck I am. Like you can't curse this good without doing it all the time.
00:17:02.560
I'll tell you what I was upset about your French fry post though, man. That's the one that really got
00:17:06.520
me upset. The French fry? Yeah. Oh yeah. I can't believe you would talk about wanting
00:17:10.000
French fries. Yeah. Over nudes? Oh my gosh. I mean, dude, come on. People are ridiculous.
00:17:14.680
Yeah. Dude, people were upset about that. I know. That's what I'm saying. Wait, there
00:17:19.520
were really people upset about that? Legitimately people upset about that. They're like, dude,
00:17:22.880
what the fuck are you talking about? You know what's funny? All the people that were upset
00:17:25.480
about it, about saying that, about not being nudes, like, oh, it's nudes. Oh, and they get mad.
00:17:30.480
You know what? Those are motherfuckers don't get no nudes. I don't understand. What were they
00:17:34.620
upset about? I can't even concede. What were they upset that you should be at like a higher
00:17:40.180
level of post or something like that? Yeah, they were saying like basically. Oh, it was
00:17:42.760
bathroom humor? Yes, but what they don't understand is that I'm the king of bathroom humor. Like
00:17:48.340
I'm going to tell the fucking most inappropriate jokes to fucking you and my high school principal
00:17:54.940
who is, we went to an all boys Catholic school. He's the most holy dude ever. Guess what?
00:18:00.500
I'm telling him the fucking dirtiest jokes possible. It's just how I roll.
00:18:04.440
Right. You know what I'm saying? He's the second holiest dude ever. And you know what?
00:18:07.240
That motherfucker, he fucking laughs too. They all laugh. Like, dude, it's funny. I'm a
00:18:10.860
fucking regular dude, man. Right. And like, you know what? And it's okay. I thought that
00:18:13.640
meme was funny. It was funny. And just because Gary V doesn't show his personality on his fucking
00:18:17.480
page and just because other guys don't doesn't mean I'm not gonna. Right. Like if I think
00:18:21.560
it's fucking funny, I'm going to fucking post it. You know? I thought it was funny.
00:18:24.880
Dude, I did too. I thought it was great. So, and you know what? Those of you that don't
00:18:29.040
have a sense of humor, you can get the fuck off my page too. By the way, everybody who
00:18:34.760
doesn't have a sense of humor, everybody who's going to fucking make a big deal out of everything,
00:18:39.600
everybody who's going to be an Astro Cole and be the guy who's like, yeah, but if you
00:18:43.360
think about, no shit, it's called fucking context, motherfucker. If you don't understand
00:18:47.300
it, go back to preschool where they teach you what that means. Right. Okay. All of you
00:18:51.600
motherfuckers, get the fuck off my page. I don't care how many followers I have. If that's
00:18:55.340
80% of my followers, then fucking see you. I don't fucking care. I do this for fucking
00:19:00.200
me. I do this because I know that 99% of the people out there aren't going to do anything
00:19:05.340
that I fucking tell them. They're not going to listen to anything I say. They're not going
00:19:08.620
to fucking become anything that I tell them to become. They're just going to shake their
00:19:11.380
head. Yes. The one, there's going to be 1% of people that are going to fucking like
00:19:16.200
I, like I got an email from yesterday, a guy who, uh, he owns a pool company and fucking
00:19:21.640
Houston, Texas telling me how he literally give me numbers. Like, Hey dude, I fucking
00:19:27.360
did 200 grand last year. This year I did a million last year to a million. This year
00:19:32.080
I'm going to do 2.2 million. Wow. And he's like this, you know, I'm doing the work, but
00:19:35.940
dude, I'm going to tell you, this is, this is the shit that I learned from you. That's
00:19:39.060
who I do this for. All the rest of you motherfuckers can fuck off for all I care. I don't really
00:19:43.620
care. I really don't. Isn't that, that's weird. That 1% cause we were, I was talking
00:19:47.360
about this as well. It's always been 1%. I do it for the fucking 1% that's going to
00:19:51.860
do it. Yeah. And the rest, that's why the Academy that I'm doing is fucking application
00:19:56.260
only. I don't want all the motherfuckers who aren't going to do shit. Right. Right. And
00:20:00.400
then at the end being like, Oh, I fucking paid for your course. Bullshit. You do what I
00:20:05.680
fucking tell you, you're going to be wealthy. Right. Period. But you know, that's, I'm going
00:20:11.280
to fucking vet people to make sure they're going to fucking do it. I need evidence that
00:20:14.540
you're going to fucking do it. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway. Well, before you wrap that up, I
00:20:18.760
just got done with court. I had to literally go to court for a fucking stalker today and
00:20:23.500
spend half of my fucking day in court. It was like Jerry Springer. Like it was fucking
00:20:28.560
insane. Like they literally hauled the person off to fucking jail because they threw a fucking
00:20:33.540
fit in the fucking courtroom. Yeah. Or for mental evaluation or whatever. I don't know where
00:20:38.000
the fuck they were going. But all's I know, as I spent half my day dealing with fucked up
00:20:42.480
shit. And right now I don't give a fuck who you are. If you're not fucking down with
00:20:47.000
me, get the fuck off my page. I'm sick of people. You know what I'm saying? Like, dude,
00:20:51.680
if you're not fucking down with how I, what I'm down with, with domination and fucking comp
00:20:56.720
competing and winning and fucking all the shit I talk about, go follow fucking somebody
00:21:01.000
else. There's plenty of fake motherfuckers out there to tell you all the bullshit you want
00:21:04.860
to hear. Yes, sir. You know what I'm saying? Oh yeah. Hey, I'm a fucking entrepreneur.
00:21:08.480
Here's my fucking, here's my rented fucking car. And the, and the, and the Amazon money
00:21:13.400
they buy, right? Yeah. Fuck. Anyway, I know there's going to be a lot of people that are
00:21:18.380
going to be like, dude, you should rent like that more often. And there's gonna be a lot
00:21:20.760
of people being like, Andy, you're better than that. If you're going to send me an email
00:21:23.480
that says you're better than that, you got to fuck off my page too. You know what I'm
00:21:27.060
saying? Cause I ain't better than that. I'm a normal motherfucker, man. I drink fucking
00:21:30.400
beer and whiskey. You know, I like to make a lot of money. I like to drive fast cars.
00:21:34.300
I'm a fucking normal red blood or motherfucker. If you don't like it, fuck you.
00:21:38.820
That's it. I don't fucking care. I really don't.
00:21:42.480
But I think that's probably part of the reason that so many people do connect with you because
00:21:46.940
I think the fake stuff that we see a lot will resonate for a short period of time until people
00:21:51.680
realize it's crap. I'm not going to show you one aspect of it. I'm incapable of that.
00:21:55.280
Like I love Gary, but Gary shows one aspect of himself. And I didn't even talk to him about
00:21:59.360
this. I said, Gary, if you showed your real personality, not saying he's showing fake personality
00:22:04.060
cause he is who he is. But if you showed a little bit more humor or a little bit more,
00:22:08.340
you know, not always Gary, dude, people will fucking resonate with him a lot more. He would
00:22:13.500
reach 10 times as many people. I agree. You know what I'm saying? And I love Gary. I've
00:22:17.260
told him this and I wouldn't say it. I wouldn't say it if I hadn't fucking discussed it with
00:22:21.140
him already. You know? And I think, you know, I'm conscious of who he is and his family and
00:22:26.500
not wanting to show that because dude, that's, it's a liability for him. He's a fucking famous
00:22:30.160
dude. Right. But show a little bit more shit that you're bad at. Show a little bit, show
00:22:35.920
a little bit of goofy shit. You know, let's see your humor a little bit. Like, you know
00:22:39.860
what I mean? Like, dude, people will like, so, so don't always try, like, I'm not talking
00:22:44.420
about just him, but I'm saying I'm never going to be that guy. Right. I don't want to
00:22:47.880
be. I'm not fucking, I don't fucking care to be. I have no interest in being like
00:22:53.360
that. Like, I'm a fucking goofy motherfucker. Like, if you're not down with that too, see
00:22:58.040
you. I don't care. Right. You know what I mean? So I just do people a favor and just
00:23:01.940
block them. When they complain about anything, I fucking block them. I'm going all in on
00:23:05.280
my corniness. Huh? I'm going all in on my corniness. You've, you've lit a fire. You
00:23:09.840
haven't yet? I'm, I'm going, that's a good point, Ryan. I'm already. Oh shit, man. Yeah.
00:23:14.940
You're starting to look like a fucking corn cob.
00:23:17.080
I am starting a little bit. Yeah. I don't even know what that means. Your fucking head
00:23:20.860
looks like a corn kernel. Well, yeah, I need to, I need, I need to shave it. I've been
00:23:23.740
too lazy. Yeah. I got to get back to the, uh, the slick look. What's that have to do
00:23:27.440
with fucking a corn kernel? Are you, do you eat hairy corn kernels? No, I'm saying because
00:23:31.900
I'm, I assume you're talking about the fact that I got a little fuzz growing up here.
00:23:34.940
No. Oh no. But that shit is silver though. It is. Oh yeah. No, it's silver. That's part
00:23:38.980
of it. That's a silver shit. Like that's way more silver than me. Yeah, I know. It's
00:23:41.960
very silver. Oh, you're older than me though. I'm like what? Six years older than
00:23:45.580
you. You're older than me. Yeah. Yeah. I know it's cause I'm so youthful. How old
00:23:49.620
are you? 44. Yeah. You are fucking six years older than me. Yeah. God damn dude, you're
00:23:54.520
old. I am old. Fuck. I am old, but I'm aging like wine. Oh God. Here we go. Let's hear
00:24:02.820
what you were saying. You're going to get corny though. So no, no, I'm going to go in all
00:24:06.240
in. I'm going to embrace everything. All right. Yeah. So let's actually talk about something.
00:24:10.740
I do. But listen, just in the outside chance that we have new people who haven't heard
00:24:16.200
of Ryan, you should probably give you a little two minute spiel. Dude, if you haven't heard
00:24:19.200
of Ryan, go fucking Google. Google this shit. Ryan's a fucking legend. He is a legend.
00:24:23.000
Thank you. Yeah. I appreciate that. You should say a few words about yourself.
00:24:26.060
Bragg. This is my moment right here. Yeah. Well, I started this organization three years
00:24:32.320
ago because I was messed up quite honestly. We talked about that. We've talked about that
00:24:37.720
before as man. I didn't, I didn't have things figured out. I went through a separation with
00:24:40.860
my wife. I blamed her a lot of the time. And, uh, through that process, I learned to take
00:24:46.260
responsibility for my own life and accountability for, from my own stuff. And it's really interesting
00:24:51.300
as I tell that story about the separation specifically, a lot of people will always say
00:24:55.220
things like, Oh, well, it takes two to tango and your wife's this, and she's probably screwing
00:24:59.580
around with other guys. And I'm like, you know, sometimes it doesn't take two. It takes
00:25:05.020
one to be influential tolerated your shit for so long that they are totally justified.
00:25:10.580
Kick you the fuck out. Exactly. And that, you know what? That's where I was at. And what's
00:25:14.360
really interesting is as, as I went on this journey to fix myself, not her, cause I tried
00:25:18.800
that and that didn't work. I tried to manipulate, coerce, do everything I could to win her back.
00:25:23.000
That didn't work. I went to work on myself and she responded to that.
00:25:26.660
Well, it's amazing that whenever you create a great product, people come, right? It's not
00:25:32.340
just in relationships. Exactly. People focus too much on what they're going to try to get
00:25:38.860
versus like, dude, like I get this all the time. I actually just had a message about this. Like
00:25:43.800
I get, I get these young dudes who ask about relationships all the time because let me be
00:25:47.720
real, dude. A lot of you guys who are between the ages of 20 and 25 have no fucking clue about
00:25:53.360
how to talk to people or how to meet women and treat women. Yeah. So I get a, for some reason
00:25:59.080
I get a lot of fucking questions. I don't know why. Cause it's not like I'm out there
00:26:02.420
fucking, you know, putting it out there. Yeah. Right. Yeah. You've gotten quite a few
00:26:05.420
through the for cell effect. About relationships. Right. Like specifically like how to pick up
00:26:10.120
girls. That's where I, when I get most of the ones I've, I've gotten for you, dude, they've
00:26:14.440
all been almost the same thing, man. My, my girlfriend's just not supportive. What should
00:26:18.600
I do? And it's like, dude, like how many times do you have you talked about? Listen, if
00:26:23.500
your girlfriend has to support you and you're having good intentions of what you're
00:26:26.940
doing of what you're like, dude, if you're a shit bag, then she probably shouldn't support
00:26:30.460
you. Right. But you have to have the awareness to know if you're a shit bag or not. If you're
00:26:33.960
not a shit bag and you're doing the right things and you're doing things for your 10
00:26:37.160
year from now self and she's not supporting you cause she wants to go to the movies.
00:26:41.280
And then when you go to the movies, she bitches about how you can't get the large popcorn cause
00:26:45.260
you don't have any fucking money. Guess what? Get fucking rid of her. Right. But there's
00:26:49.140
a difference though too, because here's what I've seen is guys will go out and start
00:26:52.320
a business and they'll say, Oh, my wife doesn't support me in the business. I'm like, dude, you can't
00:26:55.980
even take out the trash when you say you're going to like, why would she put her livelihood
00:27:00.740
and potentially your kids in your hands when you can't do the small shit? Right. That's
00:27:04.480
dude, that's a valid point. Right. You know, I, I, but far more often what I see is guys
00:27:10.480
who are hanging on. People don't really grasp this concept until they're older. Right. Like
00:27:15.820
until you're like mid thirties or at least in your thirties, you can't really understand
00:27:19.520
that people are going to come in and out of your life. Yes. Right. There's phases. It's
00:27:24.340
chapters. Okay. There's nothing wrong with that. Like, that's why, like when you're younger
00:27:28.940
and you break up with a girl, you're like, usually you end up hating her cause you're
00:27:32.540
like, you fucking smashed my dreams and my life and this and that, because you don't
00:27:37.700
realize the perspective, right? You're going to have chapters. You're going to have chapter
00:27:41.200
one. You're going to have chapter two. You're going to have chapter three. Some people have
00:27:45.220
hundreds of chapters, if you know what I'm saying. Okay. But people, all people have
00:27:50.340
chapters. Right. And if you look at relationships as chapters, sometimes when you get to the
00:27:55.440
end of the chapter, what happens? You fucking close the book. Right. It's over. And you
00:27:58.880
move forward to chapter two. And dude, it took me a long time to realize that. Like when
00:28:02.840
I was dating girls in my twenties, like if we would break up, I would, cause like I had
00:28:06.560
built up this huge fucking future in my head. Right. So I'm like, I'm like when we break
00:28:12.420
up, I'm like this whole, my whole life is over. And I don't realize that what I'm doing
00:28:17.160
is actually, I'm throwing something that didn't even exist in the trash and thinking
00:28:22.720
that my whole entire life is this, I'm in love with the idea of it as opposed to what
00:28:27.880
it really is. Right. Or what it could be, the potential of it. And young people tend to
00:28:32.540
do this because they don't have the perspective. And so they hang on to these temporary things,
00:28:37.860
these temporary relationships and let those temporary relationships affect their actions
00:28:43.800
now, which causes them to be unsuccessful 10 years from now. You see what I'm saying?
00:28:49.300
Sure. Yeah. And dude, I see this so much with young dudes, man, because like, let's be real.
00:28:54.160
Like these young dudes, they don't have a lot of experience with girls. They go out, they
00:28:58.680
fuck one chick and they're like, Oh my God, dude, I'm in love. I got my first fucking tail
00:29:03.260
and I'm, I'm fucking marrying her and I'll never get another one again because you went for
00:29:07.580
18 years without getting it. Right. But guys, it's not going to be another 18 years, bro.
00:29:12.340
That's just the way it goes. Our first 18 years or 14 or 15, that seems like a long fucking
00:29:17.240
time. Well, and the other thing too, is you're going to, you're going to continue to learn
00:29:20.580
the lesson until you learn the lesson. Like you have to keep going through it. If you
00:29:24.440
keep finding yourself in the same situation over and over and over again, you haven't learned
00:29:28.400
anything. Right. And what happens when you read a chapter of a book usually, or what you
00:29:32.720
learn something, you learn and then you advance to the next step. Sometimes it takes people
00:29:36.200
four chapters to figure out what it is they learn and what they want. Right. Sometimes it takes
00:29:40.780
people 10 chapters. Sometimes it takes people one chapter, but the reality is, it's different
00:29:45.520
for everybody. And if you hang on to someone who is stifling your ability to do what's good
00:29:50.320
for 10 year from now, you you're in a bad situation because I've seen people ruin fucking big chunks
00:29:56.720
of their life based upon the idea of hanging on to something that should have been temporary.
00:30:00.940
Sure. Yeah. Yeah. That makes sense. Yeah, absolutely. So Ryan, you had this awakening kind
00:30:06.320
of kind of started owning your life. Yeah. And you know, again, to go back is,
00:30:11.220
is she started responding to that. People started responding to that. I started to share my story.
00:30:15.000
And as I did that, um, I, I noticed there was a lot of guys out there that were going through very,
00:30:19.580
very similar things that I did, um, that were not taking responsibility, accountability,
00:30:23.740
ownership of their life. And, uh, I felt like through what I shared with them, gave them permission
00:30:28.800
to do the same thing. And so in, uh, in March of 2015, so just about three years ago, I launched
00:30:34.540
this organization designed to help men become better men, better fathers, husbands, business
00:30:39.420
owners, community leaders. And it's been a really cool ride. And it's cool to get messages from guys
00:30:44.140
and even their wives that, Hey, my husband has completely transformed his life. I don't know
00:30:49.000
what you do in that little quote unquote man club, but it's awesome. Dude, let me ask you this too.
00:30:53.520
Cause like, this is getting a lot of, this is getting a lot of hate lately too. Oh dude,
00:30:58.260
what are you a fucking man guru? You've got a big beard. Yeah, I get that a lot. You know how to
00:31:02.320
be a man? Like, and what's funny about knowing you is that like, dude, it's the fucking complete
00:31:07.120
opposite. You know what I'm saying? I'm on the journey, man. Like, and I tell people like,
00:31:10.540
cause they'll say, well, what makes you qualified? I'm like, I, other than I'm a man and I want to
00:31:15.540
be better at being a man. That's my quote. And I've been through some shit and I learned some shit
00:31:19.200
that made my life better. Right. That's, that's what qualifies me. I don't have a degree. I don't
00:31:23.200
have, you know, you don't even have to believe what I say. Like it's my opinion. But so many people,
00:31:26.960
they see, they see you because you do have a big beard and shit and they think they do this to
00:31:31.080
Waylon too. Like they look at Waylon and they think, you know, Oh, you think you're some sort
00:31:35.660
of alpha male because you have a beard and you fucking shoot guns and you, you like being around
00:31:40.520
woods and shit. Like that has nothing to do with it. Like I know both of you guys real well. And
00:31:45.440
it's funny because it's, it's, it shows people's limited thinking. Like, cause you guys do kind of
00:31:50.140
fit into the stereotype. Of course. You look like fucking Paul Bunyan. Yeah. Well, it's true. And I was
00:31:54.320
considering wearing a flannel shirt today, but I was like, I probably shouldn't do that. Yeah. You'd be like the
00:31:57.380
bounty dude. I wish. Yeah. Anyways. Yeah, it is. And I, and I tell people there's more
00:32:02.440
behind the, them behind the beard. But, uh, yeah. So you were doing so how long have you
00:32:07.240
actually done that? Beards are fucking awesome. Well, I like that's people ask me, why do you
00:32:10.980
have a beard? I like my beard. Yeah. Why do you put your hair that way? I mean, that's
00:32:14.180
right. Right. Right. Cause you like it. Yeah. I'm glad the beards are finally starting to
00:32:17.700
fade away though. It's like, like the true beard guys, they still got them, but everybody that
00:32:22.320
was on the fad, there's a lot of like pretty beards out there. I caught like where they're
00:32:26.240
like overly like done. I'm like, yeah, that's not a beard, man. You know what I mean? Like
00:32:30.400
keep it nice, keep it straight, but it's not supposed to be pretty. Yeah. I hear you. So
00:32:35.300
you were doing the podcast for what, two or three years. And then, and then your experience
00:32:38.920
doing that, I assume is just kind of fed into this new book that you're, you wrote. Yeah.
00:32:42.780
I mean that, that book is, is probably the experiences that I've had over the past, uh, 10 years
00:32:50.320
or so of taking ownership and responsibility of my life. And if you look at sovereignty, you look
00:32:54.380
at what the root word is, reign rule. And that, and that's the purpose you rule over
00:32:58.460
your life. But so many people have given up power and authority over their own lives.
00:33:03.560
They give it to their bosses and their wives and their parents or the economy or the president
00:33:09.600
or my health or whatever reason people come up with and all the excuses they come up with.
00:33:15.020
And when they do that, when they say, Oh, it's because Andy, my boss, isn't doing X, Y,
00:33:19.340
and Z, what they do is they give all the power to Andy instead of maintaining the power to
00:33:24.280
be able to do their own thing, to live their own life and to have their own success.
00:33:27.440
I think most people are afraid of being in control.
00:33:32.580
They don't, they don't, they don't like leaders struggle with this a lot. Like there's certain
00:33:37.520
leaders that have the right mentality about leading that when they first start leading,
00:33:41.620
they have trouble understanding why somebody would listen to them.
00:33:44.320
But what you have to understand as a leader is that most people need direction. They have to
00:33:49.120
be led. They have to be shown what to do because they haven't put any time in figuring out who
00:33:56.760
So if that's most people, how would you suggest that most people who aren't maybe natural born
00:34:02.160
leaders, like how can they still exercise sovereignty over their own lives?
00:34:06.400
When you're talking about natural born leaders, I think what, and I'm assuming what you're talking
00:34:10.280
about is leading other people. I'm not talking about leading other people. I'm talking about
00:34:13.380
leading yourself and all that other stuff starts a hundred percent. We call this influence,
00:34:19.020
right? The more that I can control myself and be powerful over myself, the more, and we were
00:34:23.720
talking about this at lunch, the more people, they recognize it and they'll, they'll recognize it
00:34:28.060
and then they'll choose to be influenced by you. So how does someone become a leader? Lead
00:34:34.340
yourself first and let that other stuff take care of yourself.
00:34:36.760
Most in the world. They're the people who exhibit the most discipline in their lives.
00:34:41.580
A hundred percent. You know what I'm saying? They're the people who, when you go to dinner
00:34:44.720
with them and they're on a diet, they don't, they don't make it a big deal and say, Oh,
00:34:48.700
I'm fucking this and this and this. They just say, no, thank you. Right. You know what I mean?
00:34:52.200
Yep. They, it's like, they're, they're making the decisions and it's clear that they're making
00:34:56.880
the decisions. They have the principle and everybody's every, and I made a post about this the other
00:35:01.080
day. It's like, if you're principled only when it's convenient, you're not really principled.
00:35:05.820
Right. And that's what most people do is like, Oh, I'm a diet except for when I'm traveling
00:35:10.340
or I'm going to really hit the gym hard except for when, you know, again, I'm, I'm out of
00:35:14.740
town or I'm going to, they don't make a big deal out of it. Right. They, they don't have
00:35:18.020
to like let the world know about it. No, just go do their business. They just go do their
00:35:20.900
thing. Yep. You know? And that, those are the people that get the most respect because
00:35:24.160
they are leading themselves to the outcome that they want and other people recognize it.
00:35:28.600
It's very easy to recognize. Right. And while you or I might look at somebody and like,
00:35:33.280
I definitely identify it. I'm like, all right, this guy's a fucking, this guy's got his shit
00:35:36.960
together. He's a leader. Other people are mystified by it and they're just like, how do you do
00:35:40.960
that? Yeah. The X factor, right? He's got it. I want to be like him because they sense
00:35:44.720
it. You know what I mean? It's a sense of confidence and belief in yourself that is, is
00:35:49.640
contagious to other people. Sure. Yeah. There's a great quote. Uh, I think that you used to open
00:35:54.640
up one of the chapters and I forget, I think it was about by Emerson, something about
00:35:58.220
self mastery is true freedom. And I think so many people think of discipline and, and
00:36:03.980
you know, holding yourself to certain, um, standards. They almost see that as like a
00:36:08.160
constraining thing. Whereas, whereas, you know, reading your book, you're saying that's not
00:36:12.200
constraining, that's liberating. Well, that's true freedom. It is restraining, but it's imposed
00:36:16.480
limitations, right? Because you, you impose your own restrictions, if you will, for like, for
00:36:21.760
example, food or getting up early, those are your own, uh, parameters that you've created
00:36:27.360
in your life. And because you've chosen them, you are not subjecting yourself to unknown and
00:36:33.300
unexpected consequences of not establishing those parameters. And that's the differences.
00:36:39.540
And I think the quote you're referring to is Aristotle. He says, through discipline comes
00:36:43.340
freedom. Jocko Willink says discipline equals freedom. Same concept. If you can be disciplined,
00:36:48.820
self disciplined, then you will be free to do what it is you decide you want to do, which goes to your
00:36:54.300
point of most people don't know what they want or who they are. And then they're at, they're more at
00:36:58.960
the mercy of their indecision. Yes. You see what I'm saying? And that's how your life ends up a
00:37:04.860
million miles off fucking track from where you just wanted it to be because you're not at the mercy of
00:37:10.420
your actual control and your decisions. You're at the mercy of your indecision, which means what you
00:37:15.460
ultimately are as at the mercy of, of the effects of other people's decisions. Right. Right. Oh,
00:37:21.200
we want to go to dinner. Oh, fuck dude. I can't go to dinner because I don't have the discipline
00:37:25.420
to stick to my program. So now it's so-and-so's fault because I went out and drank 12 beers and
00:37:32.020
ate like shit when I shouldn't have. Right. Right. So now your, your life is literally physically
00:37:37.140
being affected by other people's decisions and your lack of decision. Yeah. And I mean, it's,
00:37:42.760
it's important that we learn to be decisive because if you don't decide and you don't lead
00:37:47.680
yourself, you will be led. Oh, absolutely. Whether you choose to be led or not, or somebody imposes it
00:37:53.620
upon you. I mean, it's even as little as talking about the food thing is like, you know, somebody
00:37:57.500
says, Hey, let's go out to lunch. They say, where do you want to go? I don't know wherever you want
00:38:00.800
to go. No, make a decision. Right. Like I want to go to this restaurant. If somebody has a problem
00:38:04.860
somewhere where I can get this, right. Make a decision, please. Or what do you want to do this weekend?
00:38:09.340
No, like, what do you want to do? Let's go do that. If they have a problem, then they'll
00:38:14.800
figure it out. Most people can't even make that simple decision. It's crazy. It's crazy.
00:38:18.080
The fucking number, the number one argument in relationships is what? Where you want to
00:38:22.480
eat. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? I'm sure. Like, I'm sure. Right. You know, like they,
00:38:26.780
like a dude, most men and women both, cause this applies to women too. They can't make a decision
00:38:32.480
as simple as where do you want to eat? Right. And then they wonder why they can't make the big
00:38:35.980
decisions. They'll be like, okay. Then when the decision gets made, okay, I want to go
00:38:39.600
here. No, I don't want to go there. It doesn't sound good. And that, and then it starts a fight.
00:38:42.680
Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Listen, if you don't fucking care, that means we're going
00:38:46.120
where I fucking want to go. Yeah. In my house, that's what that means. Right. You know what
00:38:50.060
I'm saying? Emily and I just got an argument about this. We never argue. Like, dude, there
00:38:54.040
was, where do you want to go? And there was nothing open. And I said, all right, we're going
00:38:57.840
here. She's like, no, I don't want to go there. Well, you know where we went? We went fucking
00:39:00.500
home and we ate whatever the fuck was there. Yeah. I'm not fucking doing it. You know what I mean?
00:39:04.300
Like, dude, I'm not going to fucking sit there and play that game. It's so frustrating. I mean,
00:39:08.160
it really, but then people wonder why, you know, they can't make a big decision or why
00:39:12.380
they can't have a difficult conversation with somebody on a meaningful topic. It's because
00:39:16.520
you can't do the small stuff. Therefore you can't do the big stuff. Right. Right. Yeah,
00:39:19.860
dude. You know, it took me a long time to get comfortable having difficult conversations.
00:39:23.940
That shit doesn't come natural to anybody. Nobody wants to do that. Firing somebody. The first
00:39:28.220
time I fired somebody, I fucking cried. Yeah. Like I got my truck and I fucking cried
00:39:31.980
cause I felt fucking terrible. Yeah. Nobody wants to do that stuff. Now, you know what?
00:39:36.260
I've accepted that if they got fired, it's their fucking fault and that's it. Right. You
00:39:39.840
know what I'm saying? And it's your fault if you don't. That's right. No. And that's where
00:39:43.480
it changed for me. Where it changed for me was when I figured out that if I, if I usually
00:39:49.180
when you have to fire someone, everybody else knows why they should be fired too. And if
00:39:52.720
you don't, your team loses respect. And when I figured that out, I fucking now I'm like,
00:39:56.220
fuck it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You know, and it's better for that individual anyways.
00:40:00.780
Fuck yeah, it is because I'm holding them back from an opportunity they could potentially
00:40:03.640
be great at. Exactly. Doing it. Exactly. You know, and that's, that's usually what I tell
00:40:07.980
them. Not all of them understand it, but they will hopefully at some point. But yeah. Yeah.
00:40:12.120
Ryan, from that moment that you were, you explained that you were kind of sobbing and
00:40:16.220
you looked at the, and I forget if you said that or if I read that in your book, I think
00:40:19.680
I would say sobbing. That doesn't sound like a word I would use. All right. Well, you said
00:40:23.260
you were, you were weeping or you were emotional by yourself when you were separated. Guys
00:40:28.280
with beers don't fucking cry. That's true. I'm sorry. My bad. Well, I didn't have a beard
00:40:32.600
then, so I did cry. So, but in any case you said you basically set up all his books. I
00:40:37.520
am. I read so many. Um, Ryan eats fucking nails and glass. That's right. That's true. Yeah.
00:40:43.500
Never. Um, but you basically made that change, right? You decided that you were going to stop
00:40:48.400
blaming other people, uh, and take personal responsibility. But obviously from that point to now,
00:40:53.260
you learned how to master yourself. Sure. And I would just take us through that process.
00:40:59.800
Like what are the steps to self mastery in your opinion? Man, that's a tough one. And it's
00:41:03.920
like, it doesn't look about it. Well, yeah. Well, part of it is self master. I mean, there's
00:41:08.340
a lot more to it than that, obviously, but pick something, pick anything for me. It happened
00:41:13.160
to be the gym. And so I decided, I remember I came home one night and my boys were tugging on
00:41:19.600
my pant leg and they're like, dad, dad, dad, let's go jump on the trampoline. And I had to
00:41:22.840
look him in the eye and say, sorry guys, I can't like, I literally could not go jump
00:41:27.400
on the trampoline because I was exhausted. And that moment right there was the moment
00:41:31.440
that it changed for me because I had a clear vision to your point, Andy earlier about what
00:41:35.820
I wanted. I want to be around. Like I want to jump on the trampoline with my kids. Right.
00:41:39.860
That was important to me. Right. And so I went into the gym every single day. And I've been
00:41:44.060
doing that for at this point, five, six years. And I've been 90% of the days. That's important.
00:41:50.760
That discipline has led me to be more disciplined in the business, has led me to be more disciplined
00:41:55.160
in my relationship, every single facet of life. So pick something and start being disciplined
00:42:01.220
towards that thing. Do the activities that you know you need to be doing and do it every single
00:42:06.260
day. That to me is the key. If you, if you can do it every single day, that's where you'll start
00:42:11.280
to notice change. It can't be some activity that you have to do on a weekly basis or a monthly basis.
00:42:15.600
It has to be done every single day. That's where you start to develop those patterns and habits.
00:42:20.860
Nice. Nice. I like that you said, know what you want first and then know what kind of life you want.
00:42:25.840
Know what you know what your why is. You do. And that might change. And certainly it does. We talk
00:42:30.440
about chapters, you know, like, am I going to be doing this for 30 years? Probably not. And people
00:42:35.600
say, well, Ryan, what's this going to look like in 10 years? I'm like, I don't even know what I'm
00:42:38.640
having for dinner tonight. Yeah. All that I know is this is what I want right now. And I'm working
00:42:42.480
hard towards. Absolutely. And in a year, there might be some other opportunity there. It might
00:42:47.420
be some other thing, but everything that I'm learning about this business and the way that
00:42:50.780
I run myself is going to translate into whatever else may come up. Exactly. You guys were lamenting
00:42:56.960
people's indecisiveness though, but dude, you know that we get this all the time. People say,
00:43:01.480
man, I have this great work ethic. I'm super passionate, but I just can't decide what to do.
00:43:07.920
Pick one. What do you, what do you tell people like that?
00:43:10.160
Pick something. That's what I say. You know that all the time. You want to be on it? You
00:43:13.340
want me? The honest truth is, is that when people say that, I know the first two things
00:43:17.660
that you said are bullshit. Yeah, that's a good point. Cause that what they're doing
00:43:21.100
is they're fucking taking the, they're taking the mentality or the, the point of, I don't
00:43:28.120
have something to do. And they're using it as an excuse for why I wasted all this potential
00:43:33.360
when it's bullshit. You don't have the fucking potential. If you had a hard work ethic,
00:43:37.460
if you had a fucking drive, if you had all the shit, guess what? You'd find something
00:43:42.320
to fucking do doing it already. Right. It's a good point. And you know what? You would
00:43:45.720
make a fucking decision. A lot of people hide behind that because they're like, I have all
00:43:49.700
the skills, but, but I'm not, I don't know what to do. You would be doing something when
00:43:54.300
I, when I didn't know what to do. Guess what? I did something. Right. Like I fucking did
00:43:59.500
something like, dude, I sold baseball cards. I sold light bulbs door to door. I fucking did
00:44:03.980
internet yellow pages. I fucking sold snow cones. I fucking painted stripes on parking
00:44:08.860
lots. I worked construction. I fucking, uh, dude, I did a ton of things. I did something.
00:44:15.000
Right. You'd be doing something. You know what you know that they don't though, is that
00:44:18.800
I think, and we run into people like this all the time too. They're like, well, what
00:44:21.820
if I start with this? And then in six months I realized this was stupid. I shouldn't have
00:44:25.860
done this. You know that it's better to have done that. No, that's part of the process.
00:44:30.080
Right. You're going to fucking pick, dude, you're going to pick something. Dude, you
00:44:33.760
are going to pick something and guess what? You're going to fucking fail. Right. You're
00:44:37.320
going to fucking fail. You are not hitting a grand slam on day one. You're not getting
00:44:41.980
inducted to the hall of fame and won it fucking in bat. Okay. You're going to strike the fuck
00:44:46.360
out and guess what's going to happen when you strike the fuck out? You're going to learn
00:44:50.060
something. You're going to say, man, I don't want to do that again. Right. And guess
00:44:54.600
what? You're not going to do that again. And then you're going to do that three
00:44:57.380
or four more fucking times where you're going and maybe you do stay like for me the mistakes I
00:45:03.840
make this is why I'm getting into business at a young age is a great idea because you
00:45:09.100
you are going to fuck it up but you don't have any obligations you don't have a family you don't
00:45:15.280
have a house you don't have a mortgage you know so you're you're free to fuck shit up and still
00:45:20.400
keep going you know what I mean it doesn't bury you and um you know so many people spend so much
00:45:27.560
time trying to find the plan that they're not going to fuck up that that they never start
00:45:31.960
anything right you know I'm saying yeah it doesn't exist I mean I can give you an example with the
00:45:36.080
book I get a lot of people now that that books out and they'll say well how do you write a book I'm
00:45:39.600
like what do you mean like you just write like that's how you write a book and I wrote dude go
00:45:44.080
back and listen to the first fucking episodes the first five episodes the msco project they're
00:45:48.580
fucking terrible horrible right I leave them up as an example that I didn't know what the fuck I
00:45:54.220
was doing like honestly a smart person would take those down and redo them in the new format
00:46:00.660
the first 50 episodes but they were so fucking bad you know why I didn't know what the fuck I was
00:46:08.600
doing but you figured it out because you did it like I guess I figured it out I don't know I'm still
00:46:12.880
well you know millions of people would say that you have I don't know like dude to me like I
00:46:18.520
don't come in here thinking I haven't figured out I'm like fuck dude I maybe I don't have figured
00:46:22.000
out but the point is I've learned shit that has gotten to me to get better right exactly I might
00:46:28.060
not have figured out still I'm not fucking I'm not ranked up there with Joe Rogan which is where I
00:46:32.420
want to be you know part of the reason is is because I got some freeloaders that fucking listen
00:46:36.520
and never click subscribe or leave a review or tell a fucking friend but I won't bring that up
00:46:41.340
I love when he talks about the early uh the early podcast because you get in your mind like you
00:46:46.200
imagine Andy in the very first episode going hey guys yeah I'm Andrew and I am the mother
00:46:53.340
I ran in full steam like dude I didn't fucking hold back I still have my first YouTube video
00:46:58.900
up for that same reason I look at it once in a while I'm like dude that is ridiculous dude you
00:47:03.120
know what when I first started recording fucking audio and video and shit I can remember because
00:47:07.260
we had a guy here who worked in our office who was a seasoned uh anchor a news anchor for for many
00:47:13.320
years and he ended up quitting his name was Tim Tealdo really cool dude good guy but I remember
00:47:17.940
like dude he used like he would be like okay we're gonna make a video about this this is before you
00:47:22.520
were even down here at Tyler and uh fucking I'd be like all right so what I gotta say yeah like do I
00:47:29.520
say it like this do I say it like that do I do it like this he's like dude just fucking do it and I'm
00:47:33.980
like I don't know how to do it like I remember when I came last time uh Vaughn gave you a topic for
00:47:40.260
Thursday Thunder yeah and I was sitting here because I think we had just done the podcast
00:47:44.180
or something and he just gave you a topic and you just riffed yeah I was blown away I'm like
00:47:48.720
dude that was awesome but but you had to earn that yeah yeah yeah yeah and now if you listen with
00:47:53.560
two original top first three or four Thursday Thunders you listen one now it's fucking night and
00:47:58.700
day yeah like I don't even have to even like and dude people think those are cut those are fucking
00:48:03.960
not edited those are fucking straight through you know and um but the point is is like dude we all
00:48:09.500
suck when we start something new right like you just have to be willing to suck so many people
00:48:14.340
ruin their whole lives because they're so afraid of sucking at something like dude if you're afraid
00:48:21.140
of sucking at something guess what you are by default going to suck at your whole entire life forever
00:48:26.420
forever you just resigned to yes and you're gonna that's that's the default and you're gonna get to
00:48:31.120
be 80 or 90 or whatever you end up living and you're gonna be like fuck I didn't do anything
00:48:35.940
I didn't have the balls do anything I didn't I couldn't do anything I I fucking I dude I sucked
00:48:41.920
and you're gonna have to deal with that you sucked because you were too big of a pussy to try anything
00:48:45.740
yeah like it's funny because like when when when you walk as a kid you were literally literally fall
00:48:54.580
down a thousand fucking times but not one time do you ever cross your mind like hey maybe fucking
00:49:00.000
walking isn't for me I'm just gonna scoot around my butt you know I'm saying like it doesn't happen
00:49:04.360
right but as we get older like one or two things happen like you you end up being bad at something
00:49:10.320
and like a group of kids makes fun of you right exactly like right and you and or you do something
00:49:15.220
that everybody else seems to get that you don't get and then your teacher or somebody you look up to
00:49:19.640
comes up and says Andy you know what that's just not your fucking thing like it's not your thing
00:49:24.120
and you believe it because you trust the person subscribe to it yeah and you don't want to get laughed at
00:49:28.660
by the kids anymore so you're like you start to believe well there's things that aren't for me
00:49:32.980
and you know what in real life there are things that aren't for you if you're fucking you know
00:49:37.380
five foot tall and you can't dribble a basketball you're probably not going to be LeBron James
00:49:42.100
sure in 20 years or 100 years okay but for most things especially in business you can get pretty
00:49:50.860
fucking good at something with just a little bit of common sense and skill and uh if you if you could
00:49:57.020
touch a hot stove and realize to not touch it again and you're persistent if you have those
00:50:02.820
two skills your ability to fucking not do dumb shit twice and your ability to put time in there's
00:50:09.060
really no limit to how successful you can be yeah you know what I mean but dude because we learn along
00:50:13.560
the way that we're going to get laughed at if we do something stupid or we're going to get made fun
00:50:17.740
of or we believe that certain things just aren't for us we end up not doing anything but to your
00:50:23.980
point about uh setting huge unmanageable goals you're right the five foot one you know skinny
00:50:30.160
unathletic white kid aka me it's not going to become LeBron James but if he dedicates himself
00:50:35.020
to perfecting his shot he's going to get it on the team absolutely he's obsessive he's going to
00:50:39.920
perfecting his shot he's going to be good at some level right he'll be good at high school or he'll be
00:50:45.120
good dude that's exactly right and that's a good point like dude and if you translate that to
00:50:49.800
entrepreneurship not everybody on here is going to be fucking Steve Jobs I certainly am not
00:50:54.120
right I'm not in fucking I'm not going to be fucking Steve Jobs or fucking Warren Buffett or
00:50:58.640
some shit like that like that's not me well it has to be I mean those big those big dreams have
00:51:03.820
to be relevant too right I mean realistic or one thing that's that's not that's not what I'm talking
00:51:07.760
about I'm talking about it's actually going to be relevant do you even want to be LeBron James
00:51:11.160
I fucking know I don't want to be Steve Jobs or fuck dude I don't want to live I don't want to be
00:51:15.800
Gary V exactly you know I'm saying like dude like Gary and I own the same size companies like
00:51:21.240
almost the exact same size and I don't have to fucking do none of the shit that he has to do
00:51:25.820
I don't have to fly over the fucking world I don't have to take 25 meetings a day dude I get up I
00:51:31.480
fucking go to the gym I work out in my fucking local gym nobody fucking bugs me everybody there's
00:51:36.020
cool as fuck you know I'm saying like I work out I go home I fucking change the shower I come to work
00:51:41.620
I hang out with my dudes I make some fucking YouTube videos and a couple fucking podcasts and
00:51:45.740
I get paid a lot when I do decide to go speak I'm cool with that yeah you know what I'm saying I'm
00:51:50.180
not trying to make 40 fucking pieces of content every day and let it consume my life what we want
00:51:54.660
right like it's just not what I want and dude people are like oh dude you need to do this and
00:51:59.680
that and this dude if I wanted to be doing it guess what I'd be fucking doing it right it's
00:52:05.300
purposeful living right you know what I'm saying and like a lot of these guys these entrepreneur
00:52:08.760
gurus out there like I see him doing like because Gary's built a good following with what he's done
00:52:15.200
and he Gary legitimately loves what he does and I respect that right you know I respect anybody that
00:52:20.700
loves what they do and they know what they want and Gary loves what he does I just don't want that
00:52:24.700
right and I see a lot of people out there who have very little experience in anything trying to
00:52:30.160
emulate what that guy does and I'm going to tell you right now you're not going to see those people
00:52:33.500
around in a year from now you know why because they're going to burn the fuck out right you know I'm
00:52:37.440
saying yeah he's a fucking alien dude it's crazy and like it's legitimate too like he's that's not a
00:52:41.960
fucking act he's like that that's what he loves and I see so many people out there being inauthentic
00:52:48.480
and trying to it's such a bad business strategy anyway because like dude you're not leverageable
00:52:53.900
it's not you're not going to you're not going to out Amazon Amazon you're not going to out Gary V
00:52:59.320
Gary V right you know I'm saying exactly you got to find out who the fuck you are and you got to
00:53:03.540
make a purposeful decision to be that and be be that you know what I'm saying and the thing about
00:53:08.520
it too is like dude we see that shit with you and Waylon like oh yeah with dudes dudes who are like
00:53:13.080
all of a sudden they're fucking man coaches right and they fucking try to look like you guys and talk
00:53:17.760
like you guys and although you guys have completely different styles and I respect both of you
00:53:22.120
it's you know uh it's a bad strategy dude that space is fucking filled right you know what I'm saying
00:53:30.140
do it you're do it you're it's going to be not only is it going to be more profitable for you
00:53:33.820
it's just you're going to live a more fulfilled life you're going to be happier exactly dude
00:53:37.600
you know how happy I am that like I could fucking like I can be walking through a casino in Vegas
00:53:43.280
and be fucking shit-faced and people fucking see me and come talk to me and they expect me
00:53:47.800
to be like that you know what I'm saying like I don't have to be like oh my god like that's
00:53:52.220
like clean up yeah like oh shit I better fucking not be me like you know they see me walking
00:53:57.040
through the casino like last time I was there I was walking through uh somewhere with uh
00:54:01.800
with fucking my buddy Ryan we were walking through dude we were both fucking hammered we
00:54:05.020
had been drinking all fucking night and like some dude comes up and he's like Andy what's
00:54:08.640
up bro and I'm like dude like it was like you know I don't have to be like oh shit yeah
00:54:12.940
I'm having fucking fun right everybody knows I do that right it's just you right yeah and
00:54:17.080
like dude you have to that's where the people fuck up right like that's where they fuck
00:54:21.680
up and like like dude like imagine like imagine Oprah Winfrey okay and let's say you know Oprah
00:54:29.700
Winfrey and let's say I don't know anything about Oprah like Lewis knows her and some other
00:54:34.340
guys know her I don't know her never met her but let's say you fucking were walking through
00:54:38.900
a Vegas hotel and you see Oprah Winfrey just fucking hammered oh yeah you'd be like oh my
00:54:43.700
god Oprah was fucking wasted the camera would be out like yeah right yeah you know because she
00:54:49.260
doesn't present herself in that manner and like dude if you're not authentic with who
00:54:53.760
you are eventually you're gonna get fucking caught yeah you know what I mean like eventually
00:54:57.460
you are gonna get fucking put on blast you're gonna we see it with celebrities all the time
00:55:01.460
you know so if you're out there trying to build a personal brand and you're trying to be like
00:55:05.360
what you're doing like let's say you're on a mission to help men be better and then all
00:55:09.200
of a sudden somebody sees you out with another girl I go have an affair right yeah dude you're
00:55:14.760
fucking ruined done right so you better be exactly who the fuck you say you are
00:55:18.960
otherwise you're gonna fucking lose everything eventually you're gonna get caught you know
00:55:23.080
and that's why I don't fucking keep anything from anybody I fucking you know like I said
00:55:28.140
in the beginning of the show it is what it is you don't like it go do your own show and
00:55:32.580
you know it's you know the thing about that too I mean talking about Gary like he's not
00:55:35.720
right or wrong it's just his thing he knows that too right and he says that it's like this
00:55:41.060
is not if this is not for you that I'm not telling you this is the way you need to do
00:55:44.140
it this is the way I do it yeah dude I've heard him say multiple times I'm not
00:55:48.940
trying to to encourage people to be just like me I'm trying to encourage people to be just
00:55:54.560
like them yes and dude that's what that people but people don't get what that means because
00:55:58.580
they haven't figured out who the fuck they are right you know what I mean and ultimately
00:56:03.420
man before you take up responsibility or master fucking anything you've got to make a decision
00:56:08.160
about who you are like on last week's podcast we had Charlie on Charlie fucking talked about
00:56:13.060
creating a character in your mind and then being that character and people hear that and
00:56:18.840
they think well that's being not authentic no it's not that's living with intention that's
00:56:23.160
becoming who you are on purpose right completely different thing people hear fine people hear
00:56:28.260
I'm gonna figure out who I am or I'm gonna go find who I am and and what they actually do
00:56:33.800
is instead of consciously deciding who they are and becoming that they go out and they look for
00:56:38.480
validation from the world to tell them who they should be and then they never feel complete on
00:56:43.640
the inside because they're not being who they want to be they're being what the world tells them they
00:56:48.400
should be or they think they got it they're gonna trip on it at some point like it's just out there
00:56:52.260
I've just gotta find exactly develop well you will you will go out there and find it but what you're
00:56:56.120
gonna find is you're gonna find that you should live a certain way go to school a certain way
00:57:01.180
have so many kids right do this do that and then you're gonna wake up at 45 years old and be
00:57:06.500
fucking miserable yeah that's what you're gonna be if you let the world tell you who you should
00:57:11.360
be and that's not being authentic being authentic is deciding who you're going to be and then being
00:57:17.220
it true yeah 100 yeah 100 and it's good no I was I was just gonna change to a different topic
00:57:24.060
I'm gonna duck out because I got pee okay can you do that so the question I have Ryan is
00:57:28.460
so you talked about sovereignty all right taking control of your life yeah so let's put you in a
00:57:33.940
scenario that you've met somebody who has just had their rock bottom their life is completely out
00:57:38.520
of control sure they said give me the cliff notes give me the five point plan for taking back control
00:57:42.560
of my life what do you tell them well so the the first thing I talk about in sovereignty is the battle
00:57:47.320
that we're fighting and if you're familiar with like the hero's journey for example I had Joseph
00:57:51.220
Campbell like like think about any movie or playwright whatever it may be there's there's this potential
00:57:56.720
hero and that's what he is he's a potential hero and he's got some external battle that he needs to
00:58:01.580
fight and he usually finds some mentor and he goes on this this journey or this voyage to overcome that
00:58:06.720
external battle and all the while there's something internal happening and at the end he resolves the
00:58:11.920
external conflict and the internal conflict right so what I'm talking about when I talk about the battle
00:58:16.980
is yes there are some things that are stacked up against men not denying that but more important than
00:58:21.820
that is the internal battle that we face and everybody faces us in a different way but at the end of the
00:58:27.980
day we become our own worst enemy we self-sabotage uh we we're undisciplined we're weak we're lazy we're
00:58:33.580
immediate gratification so I think the first step to your point that somebody needs to figure out is
00:58:39.120
what is the battle that you're fighting are you lazy okay good now we know but you've got to be real
00:58:45.120
with yourself yes I'm lazy or yes I want something for nothing or yes uh I I've messed up with my
00:58:51.380
relationship which is what I did yes I'm 50 pounds overweight so I need to fix that and I credit Andy for
00:58:57.000
doing what he's done over the past year he figured out what was wrong in his life took ownership of it
00:59:03.700
and then did something about it so you've got to figure out what that internal battle is first
00:59:08.800
because you've got to figure out which journey you're going to go on that's good I love that
00:59:12.160
in addition to laziness I think a lot of people struggle with they don't even know how bitter
00:59:15.640
they've gotten in their life like they're they're they're angry at something something and they just need
00:59:19.840
to let it go or they need to reconcile it or you know just figure out how to redeem it but and I think
00:59:24.580
that takes time too though like if you think about the average person's day I mean think about you
00:59:29.980
you wake up with just enough time to shower maybe grab a quick bite on the way out kiss your wife
00:59:34.880
goodbye pat the kids on the head you go into a job that you're miserable at you got stacks of paperwork
00:59:39.780
up to the ceiling you don't take any lunch breaks you come home have dinner maybe watch your whatever
00:59:45.960
series show you're watching you go to bed you do it all over again like where in your day is there any
00:59:50.420
time for reflection upon what you want no time at all let me let me say something so most people
00:59:57.320
find themselves in that situation at some point right sure like you just subscribe the reason most
01:00:04.080
people never get out of that situation is because they look at it and see how much work there is to
01:00:08.020
be done and so they just keep doing the same thing right you know what's your what's your advice
01:00:14.180
to someone because I know you deal with guys who say this they're like fuck dude I I did what I was
01:00:19.920
told and I did the what I was told the best I could and it's got me to this place where I'm
01:00:25.020
miserable yeah I have a job I hate I'm in a relationship that is almost impossible for me
01:00:30.700
to tolerate I'm I'm unhappy dude you know like I don't make enough money like nothing about my life
01:00:37.860
is the way that I wanted it to be and I legitimately did everything people told me I was supposed to do
01:00:42.820
what do you tell people when they're in that situation well the the first point is who did you listen
01:00:47.760
to and what results are they producing in their lives right when I started in my financial planning
01:00:52.580
practice I had a guy teach me about how to run a financial services industry what I came to realize
01:00:57.560
is he had an unsuccessful financial planning practice right and what that yielded was an
01:01:02.100
unsuccessful financial planning practice in me right so I think what we've got to do is qualify
01:01:06.580
our resources absolutely like you can't just so that's a good step to start right like some people
01:01:13.980
understand that from the get-go yeah that's why I sucked at school because like I fucking look I'd
01:01:19.720
be sitting in school this is some dude teach me about finance or entrepreneurship and wasn't an
01:01:25.320
entrepreneur look and then I see him drive away in a fucking shitbox car right and I'm like now how
01:01:31.020
the fuck does this guy now and people will say well maybe he decides to drive no that's not the case
01:01:35.280
it's not because if he had a choice he would choose something different right and like that so so so I
01:01:41.440
could never listen to people that were never credible like I just couldn't like it's I've
01:01:45.580
never been able to that's why I sucked in school because I'm like why the fuck are you teaching me
01:01:49.460
this shit when you haven't even done it right but what I'm saying is that doesn't come naturally for
01:01:56.160
people so like a lot of people a lot of people just do what they're supposed to do because that's
01:02:00.220
what they were told they were supposed to do follow fucking directions so you know if you have
01:02:05.740
somebody who's come to you and they're they're fucking facing a mountain of adversity and everything
01:02:09.900
in their life they fucking hate how do we get them to fucking wake the fuck up and and and be willing
01:02:16.500
to chip away at all these things that they've created like it's overwhelming right it's like
01:02:21.600
somebody who's 400 fucking pounds and they should weigh 150 pounds right or 700 pounds or 300 pounds
01:02:27.900
and they should weigh 140 or 160 right they're like fuck dude there's so much work to do like I'm never
01:02:36.540
going to get so here's one thing that I've done in my life and it's actually in the book it's called
01:02:40.400
the battle plan and essentially what the battle plan is it's a 90 day planning tool strategy for
01:02:46.420
the way that you're going to live your life and what you're going to accomplish in 90 days not a
01:02:50.300
year not 30 days not longer let's just focus on three months that's the chapter right then we can
01:02:55.840
build the next chapter later next quarter so what we do is we focus on four key areas in each in a 90 day
01:03:01.980
period and you come up with one just one objective that you want to accomplish in each of those four
01:03:08.880
areas so if it's condition which is synonymous with health for example and you say to yourself
01:03:13.260
well I want to go run in 90 days I want to run a spartan race for example cool that's our 90 day
01:03:19.520
objective that's what we're working towards now we got to work backwards into this thing so we work
01:03:24.860
into what we call tactics so what are the three tactics that you can do every single day that will
01:03:30.360
yield that result for you so it might be I'm going to spend 45 to 60 minutes in the gym every single
01:03:36.360
day I'm going to eliminate processed sugars from my diet and I'm going to drink x amount of water and
01:03:43.500
that's going to be the three tactics you are literally now checking those off every single day
01:03:48.380
and you're just going through the motions it will inevitably produce the result that you're after
01:03:53.620
right and that's what we do we do that for condition which is health we do it for calibration
01:03:58.580
which is yourself taking care of yourself we do it for contribution which is the way you add value
01:04:05.120
and and provide in the world as a father or a business owner or whatever it may be and then
01:04:10.980
the last is connection so the relationships you have with a spouse or friends colleagues co-workers
01:04:15.660
whatever it may be so we focus very narrowly four key objectives three tactics to accomplish in the
01:04:22.380
next 90 days yeah and that momentum and that movement it's amazing what people can accomplish in 90
01:04:27.760
days it's crazy you know like I guess what I'm trying the reason I'm bringing this up is like
01:04:32.420
dude I know there's a lot of people out there that like listen to this shit they listen to me and they
01:04:36.080
listen to you and whoever else and they're like yeah but and then they list out all the shit that
01:04:42.480
they got unintentionally right because they weren't living with a plan and they weren't living by
01:04:47.620
deciding who they are if that's you and you're listening to this you have to do it in a phase by phase
01:04:53.780
uh way you know what I'm saying you gotta build a foundation fingers and fucking shit everything's
01:04:59.360
gonna be great but dude you will be surprised that like in 90 days or 180 days that your life can be
01:05:05.620
completely fucking different yeah completely different well we thought you talked about
01:05:09.860
people just can't see the light I mean you talked about Charlie he's taught he you know he's talking
01:05:13.180
about an iron man right it's like well if you've been sitting on the couch for five years you're not
01:05:18.260
gonna go run an iron man in 90 days you could go run a three mile or a 5k right or or 10 miles or
01:05:24.400
you could go fucking run 100 yards today exactly you could go run fucking 200 yards you know what
01:05:30.460
you could do you can walk run a mile walk what you gotta walk run what you gotta run and time it so
01:05:36.580
that you can improve next time you do like dude it's just you know people people have this
01:05:41.720
this nature of taking things and giving it as doomsday scenario like dude there's very few
01:05:49.380
things that you could fucking not recover from right you know what I'm saying like very few is
01:05:53.400
gonna kill you or probably injure you or something like dude there's there's things that you know
01:05:59.020
most things most of your decisions can be undone you know what I mean and replaced with healthy
01:06:05.960
decisions and good decisions for you but I think I and you tell me if you agree or disagree but I
01:06:11.580
think it all starts with figuring out who the fuck you are and deciding who you're gonna be
01:06:15.440
yeah you know what I mean like let's take that out of the fucking way who do you want to be
01:06:20.860
not who do you think you are not who does your mom want you to be not who your dad want you to be
01:06:27.780
not who you're expected to be from your spouse who do you want to be yeah because if you're not that
01:06:33.700
and you don't decide to become that no matter what the fuck paint or how much icing you put on the
01:06:39.820
cake or or whatever you do on the outside isn't going to be the real shit one of the questions I
01:06:44.840
ask myself is who do I need to become right so like is like if I think to myself and I know guys
01:06:51.480
have said this like oh you're going to meet with Andy like I want to be able to do that well in order
01:06:54.920
to meet with guys like Andy you have to become somebody different than you are right now so what
01:07:00.620
does that actual individual look like or I want I want to be a a triathlete or whatever good who do
01:07:07.160
you need to become in order to be that I want to be a successful business owner who do you need to
01:07:10.600
become to be that successful business owner right those are the ways that you start working into who
01:07:15.120
you need to become and what you need to do to be that person that's right and dude if you want to
01:07:19.040
attract people of quality guess what you got to do first you got to you got to be be quality you
01:07:23.120
got to bring the value and that's that goes for your fucking relationships like I see all these
01:07:27.220
dudes out there who like this is the funniest fucking thing to me like guys and a lot of people
01:07:35.080
are going to take this the wrong fucking way but I don't really care because it's fucking truth
01:07:38.220
guys will fucking be like well you know I was with like you know that saying like all that matters is
01:07:46.640
what's in your heart like your mom fucking tells you right that's the biggest crock of shit right
01:07:51.000
that you will ever fucking be told because I'm gonna tell you everything else matters your fucking
01:07:55.980
looks matter how much money you make fucking matters yes what your career is matters what your
01:08:01.000
ambition is matters what your confidence is matters all that shit that your mom told you
01:08:06.660
that didn't fucking matter in relationships actually matters a fucking lot and so when you see like
01:08:12.340
like these extremely beautiful successful driven women that you want to attract and guess what
01:08:20.340
you're living in mom's basement you're never fucking getting them bro and I see these dudes who don't
01:08:25.780
have much shit going on for them like talking about these other girls like oh they're fucking gold
01:08:30.200
diggers and this and that hey motherfucker quality wants to be with quality you know I'm saying and
01:08:35.820
dude a lot of the fucking a lot of the quality that a lot of women bring to the table guess what it is
01:08:40.920
it's fucking looks yeah okay and a lot of girls have more than that but one of the qualities that has
01:08:45.780
been uh desired by men for literally the entire time that man has existed has been beauty well let's talk
01:08:54.800
about the flip side of that too because and this is something I get pushed back on one of the
01:08:59.300
qualities women look for men is power is the ability to provide exactly that's like the that's a real
01:09:04.760
thing so it doesn't matter how fucking you don't have to like go around pretending you're an alpha
01:09:09.980
male but if you're not earning a fucking good living you're not going to attract somebody like
01:09:14.440
you're not getting the fucking highest quality chicks right and a lot of girls are listening
01:09:17.720
right now well the highest quality aren't just the ones that look good I agree but you're still not
01:09:22.200
dating a fucking loser like if you're a girl right now and you're listening and you're let's say
01:09:27.040
you're a fucking five on the one to ten scale it looks wise but you're a 25 on the fucking
01:09:32.320
earning scale and having your shit together and sense of humor you still aren't dating some
01:09:36.760
motherfucker without his shit right no it's just the way it goes so if you want to attract a good
01:09:42.420
product guess what you gotta you gotta become a good fucking product that's right all right now when
01:09:47.220
you're in high school and you're in college that shit doesn't matter as much but when you grow up in
01:09:51.040
the real world guess what it fucking matters you know what I'm saying like dude people people say
01:09:57.000
shit like oh you know that guy that guy the only reason that the girls like that guy is because he's
01:10:03.000
got money and you know what I bet he doesn't fucking care right because he worked his fucking
01:10:07.920
dick off for that fucking right you know there's a lot of ways that we can add value and being
01:10:12.020
financially able to provide for the family but that doesn't mean you could be financially able and
01:10:17.500
be an asshole in every other area like but what I'm saying is like dude people just have a hard
01:10:22.000
time seeing the way that things really are right you know what I mean and well they think it's
01:10:27.340
shallow and it's not it's actually shallow it's built into our fucking genes exactly women want a
01:10:32.620
fucking dude that can protect them that could take care of the fucking family and that they feel
01:10:37.220
safe around okay and all that other shit goes by the wayside like your fucking looks your fucking
01:10:43.120
sense of humor and all that shit that's like the icing right the fundamental thing is that
01:10:47.240
you could take care of a family that you could protect them and provide safety yep on a primal
01:10:51.760
fucking level that's what they're attracted to you know why they're attracted to people who are
01:10:55.400
quote-unquote alpha males because they possess those qualities right that's it yep okay so guys who
01:11:01.920
fucking think like otherwise like they think oh well I'm a really nice guy this is like why are you
01:11:06.980
getting a friend zone because oh I'm a really fucking nice guy well cool women don't care about nice guys
01:11:11.260
they're not they're not fucking sexually turned on by a fucking right quote-unquote nice guy
01:11:14.900
because a nice guy doesn't add value to the relationship or challenge them or do any of
01:11:20.320
the things like dude most women run the fucking shit right they run the world like dude guys do
01:11:24.980
whatever the fuck they say like you know you know what a good dating strategy is don't do what
01:11:30.380
fucking chicks say well they're intrigued by it exactly they don't why the fuck does this guy not
01:11:36.020
beg me for my vagina and every fucking thing that he does this is funny because my wife so my wife and
01:11:41.400
I worked at we both worked at the mall and this was like 16 17 years ago and we we would flirt you
01:11:47.760
know on breaks or whatever and and I asked for her number her phone number she gave me her number
01:11:51.740
and then I went to Hawaii with my buddies for two weeks and she was pissed yeah she's and the re
01:11:57.240
she even says now the reason I was so attracted is because you were the only guy who didn't call
01:12:02.480
me back bro look I fucking tell dudes this all the time they always try to fucking argue with me and
01:12:07.320
girls argue with me too they say oh no this is wrong bullshit this is the fucking way it is yeah
01:12:11.880
you get a number from a chick you don't fucking call her the next day you don't text her you don't
01:12:16.660
fucking call her the next day after that you don't call her for 10 fucking days you don't call her text
01:12:21.360
okay because what's going to happen in that girl's mind is this oh well he's just like every other dude
01:12:27.340
he's you know because every other dude with a hot chick is like fucking texting her blowing her up
01:12:31.900
hey you want to Netflix and chill this and that take her shit put it away for 10 days put it in a
01:12:37.020
fucking safe after 10 days go get the shit out because she's gone through this fucking mental
01:12:41.520
phase of like oh it's probably just like every other dude I'm gonna ignore him this and that
01:12:45.440
then when you don't call she's like well that's weird like with this motherfucker don't gonna call
01:12:49.700
then she's gonna get mad like at like day five or six she'd be like who the fuck does this guy
01:12:53.300
think he is blah blah fuck him then she's gonna forget about it then all of a sudden you're ringing up
01:12:58.600
ring ring ring and guess what she's like well fuck you blah blah blah you don't wait fucking
01:13:02.400
you're like hey I got stuff going on I'm sorry you know blah blah blah and guess what now now she's
01:13:09.740
happy she because it's like a relief like oh you didn't actually blow her off right so dude bikes by
01:13:16.560
having a little bit of fucking patience and just being the opposite of every other motherfucker you
01:13:21.360
can have really good success dating but dude guys don't have it well you know what a lot of guys too
01:13:25.800
they want a lot of guys don't realize that when you're in a dating situation this is a game of
01:13:31.220
chess that what her feelings are what matters not yours they're so quick to be like oh my god you're
01:13:38.000
so beautiful you're so hot oh you're so this you're so that and they come on so fucking strong like
01:13:42.900
every other fucking dude that there's nothing to differentiate you from all the other fucking
01:13:46.380
guys out there right so you're just another dude who's been trying to bang her since she grew
01:13:50.260
titties when she was 12 years old you just filed yourself away in the fucking filing cabinet of dudes
01:13:55.420
that wanted to fuck and you stay there and guess where you get nowhere nowhere so how about this
01:14:01.600
how about be take what other guys do or take all the things that you've you've thought were right
01:14:06.080
your whole entire life and do the fucking opposite of it yeah that's a serious or what everybody else
01:14:10.660
tells you to do right you're like all right and they're like well why why do girls like these guys
01:14:15.560
who are assholes well I'll tell you why because they're complete opposite of you different and there's
01:14:19.780
a million of you right and it's a natural challenge when guys legitimately don't care it's a
01:14:24.760
natural challenge for the girl okay so that's why you see hot girls get an unhealthy relationship
01:14:29.640
over and over and over again because hot girls have dudes lined up that are being fucking the same
01:14:35.940
as every other dude right and so they take the guys who are total jerks and they see them as like oh
01:14:42.740
this guy's different it doesn't matter that he's a jerk he puts off the the the aura of challenge
01:14:48.760
to these women that they're not used to and it's exciting to them all right so if you want to be
01:14:53.520
a fucking good guy and actually still get girls you don't have to be a dick no you don't have to
01:14:57.980
be a dick all you've got to be is a fucking you and be a challenge to them well they want to be
01:15:02.060
fucking challenged well and I don't I don't think even even with that too is is a lot of guys and I
01:15:07.820
did this so I'm speaking from experience yeah made my wife the center of my universe yeah and it
01:15:13.020
messed that's unattractive dude totally yeah it's it's off-putting it's unattractive and frankly
01:15:17.860
that's unattractive for girls too like when girls do it yeah right and and it might feel good to to
01:15:23.360
to be that way for a minute in the beginning but it burns out quick man yeah and what guys will do
01:15:28.040
is they'll forsake their friends forsake all their activities spend all their time because I did this
01:15:32.600
when I got married do we all have done this everybody I figured this out because I fucked it
01:15:36.060
up the most yep you know I'm saying so you've got to make and I know this sounds selfish but this
01:15:40.940
ties into the book as well like you have to be the center of your universe like you have to take care of
01:15:46.240
yourself she's part of that experience right and so is other things that you have going on right
01:15:52.620
and when she's strong independently and you're strong independently you're significantly stronger
01:15:57.300
that's right you have your own shit going on and when you have the time to spend together it's great
01:16:01.160
when you don't we understand because we got our own shit going on right relationships fucking fail
01:16:05.960
because one or the other person or and a lot of times both have nothing else right and that's why
01:16:10.780
they stay in unhealthy situations argue fight call the cops on each other this that and the other
01:16:15.960
and then they try to blame it on romance oh we're just so romantic no you're both fucking losers
01:16:20.440
yeah that's what it is yeah you know life right and like dude you know I'm just I'm just trying to
01:16:28.140
throw a bone to these dudes out there that think that like like their mom was telling the truth oh
01:16:32.440
be a really nice guy you know you know what dude that'll get you that it's okay to be nice right you
01:16:39.420
want to be nice but have a sense of self and be someone who stands up for their beliefs don't agree
01:16:44.760
with everything a girl says because you want to fuck her you know what I'm saying be a fucking
01:16:48.980
challenge be who you are and if you just be who you are unapologetically you'll have success
01:16:53.720
you know I dude I was told growing up you know all that matters is your inside no one fucking doesn't
01:16:59.900
because you know what when I was fat I didn't get laid when I was fucking in shape guess what
01:17:03.580
got fucking laid you know what I mean well it fucking matters it does matter and people want to be
01:17:08.520
with attractive people like don't why why is that controversial yes but people have a hard time
01:17:14.360
fucking they when I say that they think that I'm being a dick or I'm fucking judgmental or I'm
01:17:19.900
fucking shallow like you said no dude you know what I am I'm a fucking realist right you know what I
01:17:26.200
mean and like dude my mom told me all the wrong shit just like she probably told you guys all the
01:17:30.860
wrong shit when it comes to dating yeah you know what it was wrong and that's that so I struggle
01:17:37.500
with fucking girls and I struggle I struggle with that shit I had to learn it the hard way you know
01:17:42.560
so I'm just trying to save some motherfuckers some time like I had to break it down to a fucking science
01:17:46.600
bro I was fat like I wasn't getting fucking I didn't have natural game I was shy I was fat I had
01:17:52.920
to fucking like dissect this shit and be like like it was a chess match you know like all right dude
01:17:57.280
step one is this step two is this you know this I'll do this I was exactly dude no bullshit I was
01:18:03.120
terrified you know dude I figured out this fucking thing dude this is the best thing ever so I figured
01:18:08.540
out this thing like um like I used to be like most guys I was afraid to get fucking shut down by a
01:18:15.020
chick like I wouldn't I wouldn't go talk to girls I figured out two things okay number one the hottest
01:18:20.460
girls get talked to the least okay because everybody else is scared shitless right so if you could
01:18:25.660
conjure up the fucking courage to go up to the best looking girls dude they're way easier to
01:18:29.780
fucking attract than the ones that are like sevens because the ones that are like sevens get hit on
01:18:33.900
all the fucking time because everybody thinks they can get them so I figured that out and dude I've
01:18:39.180
all you know I've always dated pretty girls because of that because I figured out I'm not fucking
01:18:42.720
exceptionally good looking dude you know like but the other thing that I figured out is this is like
01:18:47.500
dude if you want to go up and talk to a girl and you're afraid she's going to shut you down just have a
01:18:51.380
plan if she shuts you down and my plan it was always this one of two things they I would walk
01:18:56.160
you know you're laughing because you know what it is dude it fucking works though so dude like you go
01:19:01.300
up hey how you doing blah blah blah and she fucking snubs you it was like oh like hey look you have
01:19:07.160
like the biggest booger hanging out of your nose and I just wanted to tell you about it like I wasn't
01:19:12.100
like trying to hit on you or anything and they'll be like oh my god oh my god so thank you thank you
01:19:16.340
for telling me that guess what it opens up the door to talk absolutely humor yeah it could they're
01:19:20.880
embarrassed think about it if someone tells you like or you say oh yeah you break down that barrier
01:19:24.760
right you've got a big piece of something in your teeth I could see it from across the room I noticed
01:19:28.660
none of your friends are telling you I just wanted to tell you and then they're like oh they cover
01:19:32.220
their mouth they're like oh my god yeah oh and it breaks down that fucking bitch barrier you know and
01:19:36.620
if you got a plan bro you're in good shape because guess what at the very least you could just walk
01:19:42.520
away and feel good about it and you don't feel embarrassed right so put those two fucking tools in your
01:19:46.740
pocket there you go next time you go talk to a chick and she's a bitch just tell her she's
01:19:50.800
got a big old booger hanging off of her nose and you can walk away free and clear you don't feel
01:19:54.380
like a dick you know dude I swear I use that a thousand fucking times the flip side of that is
01:20:00.120
if you do go up there and you are a good dude and she's a bitch why would you want to talk to her
01:20:04.900
of course right yeah of course of course but the thing is is like you have to understand Vaughn
01:20:09.500
some girls get hit on by so many fucking dudes that it's just like get the fuck away from me
01:20:15.060
yeah you know what I'm saying because they just throw you in the pile so you've got to figure out how to
01:20:18.440
like yeah be different not be in the fucking pile right be different you know yeah yeah yeah
01:20:23.160
anyway dude I want to do like a fucking dating book so bad or a dating fucking podcast so bad
01:20:27.740
let's do a series I know a series I but I don't want you on it because you're terrible no no no I
01:20:32.560
want you think I'm like the big I'm oh god I'm the master who comes oh you're gonna pull some stuff
01:20:37.940
out here you just talk to my old friends talk to my old friends they'll let you know talk to my old
01:20:43.140
friends silent game I used to have so many so many girls that were friends like I had the most
01:20:48.140
girlfriends that's one I had the most dude I'm telling you man like I had to learn the hard way
01:20:55.700
and I made a science out of it I'm not saying I'm the biggest fucking pimp in the world but I tell
01:20:59.040
you this for someone that had natural no natural ability at all I am the most skilled motherfucker
01:21:03.660
on the face in that aspect zero natural ability zero seriously like dude well you don't have to
01:21:11.420
convince I just want to I want to start a dating mastermind like make make dudes fucking pay to
01:21:15.160
get into it like all right and I'll fucking coach you like you know you got a mastermind don't you
01:21:19.080
yeah all right yeah dating mastermind will work right absolutely 100 yeah it would blow up yeah
01:21:24.080
it's like I think we could charge whatever for it too I'm sure because there's dudes that make
01:21:27.960
fucking millions of dollars that have no fucking clue it's astounding to me how many people have
01:21:32.600
like these issues I mean most of it's due to inexperience but it's just crazy to me dude I'll charge
01:21:37.620
one of those fucking I'll have two levels I'll have like the high dollar like it'll be a
01:21:41.300
it'll be depending on like what how much money you make that way everybody can fucking be in
01:21:45.660
you know what I'm saying like if you make a percentage yeah if you make like a million
01:21:48.760
dollars I'm teaching you how to fucking conquer one of the biggest areas of your life that you
01:21:53.460
suck at oh yeah it's worth some money well and it translates to like it's a confidence issue
01:21:58.420
right I mean it really is so if you become confident with women for example you're probably
01:22:02.520
going to be more confident in a board meeting or with a client or a business proposal or whatever
01:22:07.060
maybe no question yeah I think more dudes are scared of women than anything else yeah I would
01:22:12.860
agree with that yeah I would agree I don't think they'll admit it though no I mean like I know guys
01:22:16.820
that are that are like that women naturally like that still are like a ball of nerves around them
01:22:22.300
you know what I mean yeah like dude they're just fucking people yeah it's it's really interesting
01:22:26.280
but you know people get like that too even with uh even with like celebrities and you know you
01:22:31.260
get around and all of a sudden you get retarded like I don't fucking celebrities don't like I've
01:22:35.720
met a number of like big celebrities and like they don't like I just look at him like because
01:22:39.920
that's what they you look shorter than you do in fucking tv you know what I'm saying like I'm not
01:22:43.320
like thinking oh my god there's fucking right whoever that's because you know that's how they want
01:22:47.080
to be talked to they're normal they're normal fucking people and that's how they want to be
01:22:51.340
approached yeah but girls are the same way well right yeah you know like dude that gets me these
01:22:56.240
dudes are like when I come up with this like what's this fucking line that I should
01:22:59.020
motherfucker how about this hey I'm Andy what's your name yeah you know what I'm saying right oh
01:23:04.800
my name's fucking it's just so simple yeah like dude it's so simple and it's like it just takes a
01:23:10.340
little bit of nuts you know what I'm saying yeah and a little bit of backup plan in case they fucking
01:23:14.480
blow you off the booger backup plan yeah throw the booger on them and fucking walk away you know
01:23:19.360
dude I'm telling you that fucking shit saved me because it got me over my fear of like approaching
01:23:24.720
women did it open did so did those women like it probably opened the door though I don't like
01:23:30.600
I'm not gonna say oh yeah fucking you know like but I could tell you this I made a lot of new
01:23:34.880
friends that way yeah I'm sure I just say it that way I'm sure you know and the more friends that
01:23:39.140
you have the opposite sex the more intriguing you are to the opposite sex yeah because they're like
01:23:42.960
what's what's this guy that like all the hot girls are friends with him for yeah and then
01:23:47.120
they're like well he doesn't look gay so maybe I should go find out like okay in Tyler's case
01:23:52.000
they're like fuck well he's gay so that's why he's here a lot of hot friends though that are girls
01:23:57.300
yeah that's because you don't have any game because they shouldn't be your friend they should
01:24:01.960
be your girlfriend what about nothing yeah you're gonna teach me some stuff though right
01:24:07.820
I know I know you're humble enough to learn no I'm not I fucking know it all when it comes to that
01:24:14.080
no I figured Tyler out he's a perfectionist no what that's his that's his beard you got the all
01:24:21.080
these really good looking women around you and you're like eh she's not this or she's not that
01:24:25.740
that's because Tyler's perfect and he expects perfection right well maybe you know I think
01:24:30.580
people I think people's imperfections make them more pretty than fucking their perfections yeah
01:24:34.560
like I've been in the fitness industry where it's like everybody is like a perfect fucking
01:24:38.540
it's the same this and like dude that shit don't do nothing for me like I think people are
01:24:42.600
attractive when they have unique things about them when they're real yeah yeah sure for sure
01:24:48.280
well anyway where can people find your book dude uh order of man.com slash book make it easy
01:24:55.560

are really going to get a lot out of it um like I said if you've read extreme ownership you like that
01:25:09.120
book oh yeah this book is definitely something that you should read it's definitely not like a
01:25:12.840
another version but it's along those lines yeah similar similar concepts I love that book extreme
01:25:17.780
ownership I think it's fucking amazing it's a good book I mean he put together a really that
01:25:21.760
that that whole notion and idea will literally transform your life yeah like that's the foundational
01:25:27.440

signed up um it's uh the mfceo.com forward slash sign up you know what dude what that was the that
01:27:56.100
was the roughest like interruption ever I know and people are going to think that Tyler actually
01:28:00.180
edited that in it was so fucking hot like I know but I didn't want to forget it because it's very
01:28:04.420
important like that was like you just like you're starving and there's only like one piece of chicken
01:28:09.260
left in the buffet and you just fucking grabbed it I'm having that yeah well I didn't want to close
01:28:13.900
without without saying that but do you want to tell everybody I know you probably don't but do you
01:28:18.560
want to tell everybody a little bit about the frisella files because we haven't gone
01:28:21.460
oh the frisella files is cool man you know um I like I like trying to do extra stuff for people that
01:28:28.940
are like truly engaged in what we're doing uh so what every once once a week we do a newsletter
01:28:35.200
and it's just uh exclusive to our email subscribers only um and it's practical it's a practical tip
01:28:42.580
of the week basically of what we're it's kind of like a mission like what we're going to work on this
01:28:46.840
week and how we're going to improve this week and it comes out on Mondays uh it gets people you know
01:28:51.700
something to focus on for the week and uh and yeah it's cool I really like doing it man because it's
01:28:56.780
like short it's sweet it's short little videos yeah it's like five five to ten minutes max and
01:29:01.560
it's it's one skill that I'm I'm that you know we're practically like hey guys look we're all on
01:29:07.620
the same team this is what we're going to work on this week and we work on it and uh and dude it's
01:29:12.260
fun man because like response has been crazy dude people love it because uh I think people love it
01:29:17.500
because it makes people feel like hey we're all working on the same thing together you know what I
01:29:21.000
mean like it's fun but the key thing is that you can't get it yeah you gotta yeah plug that email
01:29:26.460
yeah plug it the mfco.com forward slash sign up s-i-g-n-u-p-von's trying to vond see I could
01:29:33.500
teach you a couple things yeah you're trying to beat around the bush yeah you just got to grab that
01:29:37.040
motherfucker by the hair fucking put never mind i'm just saying you gotta be direct that's right
01:29:43.220
you know decisive yeah so plug that again the mfco.com forward slash sign up there you go yes and
01:29:50.920
you get to see the the warehouse too right because your videos in the warehouse yeah which I thought
01:29:55.420
was cool it's cool because i do videos like i don't it's not like one place it's actually
01:29:59.760
literally whatever we're doing that day it's kind of like a little break and we're like all right
01:30:02.840
let's talk about this for 10 minutes so um i dude honestly i think right now that's my favorite
01:30:08.720
thing that we're doing yeah um i think that was my idea the youtube show yeah it was actually
01:30:12.740
your idea no that was a fuck no that was monday mission no it was not so we're gonna do a third
01:30:20.040
podcast the monday mission but dude i don't think we should that's basically the same thing though
01:30:24.220
right yeah but it's but we're keeping exclusive hey are you do you have credit greed i think he's
01:30:29.560
suffering from credit greed i think he is too your credit greed score is fucking low bro
01:30:33.280
wait if your credit greed score was low that would mean good wait yeah that's a good question yeah
01:30:40.760
so we have to decide if you have a high credit greed score it means that that's bad yeah right
01:30:45.480
you should have a low credit greed score did you ever do that no you didn't do that right no this
01:30:49.600
is something we talk about like on partnerships like the reason most partnerships fail is because
01:30:55.860
of credit greed everybody wants to be the guy that gets the car oh yeah instead of just winning
01:31:00.140
in reality yeah just who fucking cares about credit that's right we're here to win right right yeah
01:31:05.560
that's interesting yeah so it's a little something that we came up with definitely uh where did that
01:31:11.040
come from oh when i was talking to live skype with that guy right yeah credit greed i said it in
01:31:15.860
bond's face was like oh my god he literally got a fucking you know how many times he says something
01:31:21.820
i'm like oh i better i'm sure i'm sure all the time that's your job i know yeah i know thankfully
01:31:28.360
your job is to remind me of shit that i say yeah pretty much and then and then pretend it's your idea
01:31:33.100
yeah hey it's kept me employed for the last two or three years that's right it's job security
01:31:37.760
right so i had this idea it's called credit greed and i'm like that sounds really good it's like
01:31:43.820
the opposite of my job my job is to feed him ideas and then let him take a responsibility
01:31:47.740
first of all you gotta have all kinds man you gotta have all kinds what the the ideas that you do i
01:31:53.100
get yelled at for like the fucking idea of the fries or the french fries that was his fucking idea
01:31:57.640
styler i put it up there was that your idea was that your idea what was that other one that got
01:32:02.340
fucking yelled at it was that kid that you put in the video that got bullied and come to find out
01:32:06.780
his mom's like a racist or some shit oh really and i got fucking blasted for i didn't even fucking know
01:32:11.620
you know what's funny i saw you post that and i was like oh no dude i didn't know what was going
01:32:16.460
on i know you didn't yeah i didn't know until like 15 like maybe an hour before well fuck i knew right
01:32:21.840
away when i posted it dude people were pissed and rightfully so after digging into it yeah i mean
01:32:26.580
maybe who knows yeah who knows the truth exactly you know oh man stuff gets so skewed and manipulated
01:32:32.780
like you never know what's going on dude it's because everybody has an agenda very few people are
01:32:37.060
just about the truth right you know what i mean it's like i'm gonna say this so i can get this result
01:32:41.080
so i can get this like or get this share get this many views instead of like there's very few
01:32:46.340
people on the on the internet that are truly selfless and authentic yeah you know what i mean
01:32:50.860
i agree and like dude not everybody like dude and and don't get me wrong like i said this on last
01:32:55.880
week's podcast too like look everybody has their fucking selfish interests right but the key is
01:33:01.580
minimizing the selfish interests like to a point where it's not affecting the design of your product
01:33:08.060
well and if you can align what you're trying to do like i even think like people get after me
01:33:12.040
like bro when you have a fucking mastermind or you have a group right and people pay in it right
01:33:15.640
right that's cool right and do you like getting paid yeah i love it fucking right i do too but
01:33:20.720
that shouldn't affect the quality of the product or the reason that you make a product or your
01:33:26.220
intentions when it comes to creating the product should always stay pure right and if you can master
01:33:30.140
that skill of separating your own personal interests and benefit and then creating content or products or
01:33:37.340
solutions for people without that interest in mind yeah that's the key that's a good point to making
01:33:41.820
a lot of money and that there's alignment in that too like so people get after me like oh way to make
01:33:46.960
money off guys that are struggling i'm like there's there's that's they're not different concepts like
01:33:53.160
like i can make money and help men that are struggling that's right and i can find alignment in that
01:33:59.480
which gives me fulfillment and dude puts money in the bank account my wife makes money off of people
01:34:06.160
being sick right exactly that's what i'm saying what no dude yeah that's what i'm saying no you're
01:34:11.680
right that's crazy or teachers right now dude i've gotten a few messages people that are like
01:34:16.040
you're fucking sellout because you're fucking starting this academy and people are gonna have
01:34:20.280
to fucking pay for blah blah blah yeah motherfucker you're right because you know what i've invested
01:34:24.660
20 fucking years of my life and i'm pretty sure i give out as much free content as anybody and that's
01:34:29.840
not going to change yeah so if i have more that i want to fucking say and i think it's worth
01:34:34.180
money guess what i'm gonna fucking charge money and you know what else if you don't pay for something
01:34:38.340
you don't fucking value it no way so there's not there's there's less chance of adherence
01:34:42.220
because you don't fucking value what the fuck you just paid for or didn't pay for so like if i were
01:34:46.820
to make my academy and say oh dude i'm gonna make it all for free the chances of success actually go
01:34:52.100
down because people don't have any skin in the game right they don't have any um they don't have
01:34:57.540
any self-accountability to following through but you also do a disservice to if you don't charge for it
01:35:03.440
you do a disservice to everybody else who wants to up the level oh dude look because they're
01:35:07.940
surrounded by people who don't or won't invest my shit it ain't gonna be cheap i can tell you that
01:35:12.820
right now it's gonna be fucking expensive and you know why it's gonna be expensive because i know
01:35:15.940
fucking works right and if you go fucking do it you're gonna fucking do well that's it i don't have
01:35:20.460
a problem i don't have a problem justifying my fucking my knowledge worth i've spent 20 fucking
01:35:26.520
years and i think if you look around my life i'm pretty fucking credible with it yeah you know what i'm
01:35:31.080
saying so i don't you know if you want to fucking learn the shit you fucking pay if you don't you
01:35:35.340
listen to the podcast you don't you don't have to do it yeah listen to the podcast or you could take
01:35:40.020
the alternative route and spend 15 years learning what he learned yeah whatever man yeah good point
01:35:44.520
but i think it's just it's interesting how people they're so accustomed to getting free
01:35:48.680
yeah that they expect free you know or they think because the purpose is noble what would you pay
01:35:54.120
dude if i could fucking say to you you're an entrepreneur and you're gonna have to fucking go out
01:35:58.860
for 10 years and you're gonna have to fucking struggle and grind and do all this shit but by
01:36:04.640
going through an academy like mine i could save you seven of those 10 years or five of those 10 years
01:36:09.780
what's that worth yeah i mean it's worth potentially millions of dollars it's worth a hell of a lot more
01:36:15.340
than what it's worth to go to fucking a traditional college yeah oh yeah and my shit's gonna be a lot
01:36:20.040
cheaper than that yeah so let's face it the people who want it to be free are the people that are
01:36:23.540
not gonna do shit they're not gonna act even if they paid for it right even if they paid some low
01:36:27.600
amount for it they still wouldn't do it yeah so yeah all right dude look man yeah all my point is
01:36:33.160
is like you know when you have something of value there's nothing wrong with fucking getting a fair
01:36:36.960
price for it right that's it so people that don't understand that there's there really is all the
01:36:44.360
same shit out there somewhere you just gotta go find it right and yeah find it package it in the
01:36:50.120
way that's actually gonna work understand it right right try it so like all the shit you teach in your
01:36:54.620
groups it's all out there for free right there's nothing new that but it's gonna take you 10 years
01:36:58.920
to go figure it out exactly so it is what it is yep final question ryan let's do it would you like
01:37:04.600
to see a monthly video program of andy myself and andy's brother doing shots and talking yeah well
01:37:12.700
yeah i would like to see that dude i think there should be a monthly video i think there should be a
01:37:18.120
monthly video on youtube and it should be like happy hour with us and guests so like we would
01:37:24.260
have like you that would be cool yeah or have fucking like we can't have ryan come on i mean
01:37:28.760
i don't drink but i would watch you guys drink it would still be fun but my point is is like dude
01:37:34.340
we if we brought him in right and like had a a two-hour show or an hour show of just and then we what
01:37:42.820
we could do we could do for like two hours and then you could edit out like you could edit the
01:37:47.020
fucking good parts because there would be a time while we're getting our buzz that's probably not
01:37:50.500
going to be as cool that would be actually dude i'm telling you because it would open up a whole
01:37:54.480
new conversation who do you think is would be the best of any of our guests like with too much
01:38:00.040
alcohol in them who would be the most entertaining bradley yeah oh yeah for sure yeah yeah bradley
01:38:04.680
although i don't know he's fucking like that anything i was gonna say he could be the opposite yeah
01:38:08.160
no uh dude i'd like to do that with gary oh yeah that'll never happen i know it'll never happen
01:38:14.120
because he's too protective of right but dude i would love to have it with gary like because i
01:38:17.680
think funny i think people would like that they'd be like oh this guy's a normal dude right it's
01:38:21.980
relatable right he is relatable dude gary's a fucking awesome dude like he's he's a good guy it's just
01:38:27.360
like i just wish he would show a little bit more of his himself yeah if that makes sense yeah you
01:38:32.880
know what i mean um he's a fucking funny dude he's got a sense of humor he's fucking i mean dude he's a
01:38:38.580
cool dude um you know i don't know like everybody that we've had would be cool you know you know the
01:38:46.680
one people would hate the most i could tell you who they would hate the most out of all the guests
01:38:50.900
we've had if we sat here and got drunk it would stir the most shit would be sean whalen oh god
01:38:56.180
hands down yeah yeah and sean is not gonna give a fuck what he says no and like not at all half the
01:39:01.660
people are going to hate sean yes i actually fucking think he's hilarious i don't agree with
01:39:05.560
everything he fucking says but i think he's fucking hilarious funny yeah and do you know
01:39:09.420
what's cool about sean is that whatever what he says he believes and he has reasons for believing
01:39:15.200
it yes and so if you fuck convicted about that's right right so even if you don't agree and you get
01:39:20.820
a little argument or a discussion about it you he has the reasons he believes that it's not just
01:39:25.420
because somebody said it somewhere yeah and i respect that he's so he's so polarizing i have
01:39:30.760
people that have reached out to me and do not like me or will not follow me because he's mentored
01:39:36.960
dude i get people that fucking tell me that they're like i can't believe you're fucking friends with
01:39:41.440
sean whalen blah blah sean's cool as fuck yeah he's a cool dude like there's really not many people that
01:39:47.400
i'd rather hang out with like he's fucking cool yeah you know it's funny i'm sorry that his beliefs
01:39:52.820
ruffle your feathers right you know what i mean like dude if you were if you shared your beliefs the way
01:39:58.360
he shares his beliefs you would ruffle fucking feathers too but the reason that you don't is
01:40:02.300
because you won't say what you really believe yeah yeah he and he does i mean he everything he
01:40:06.960
believes he says and he believes that and spending i think it's easy to think that oh he's just you
01:40:12.340
just you know saying whatever but like in spending time like i know you have is like no he believes
01:40:16.840
that stuff like everything that he's got a good reason for it and if you're somebody who like i said i
01:40:21.260
don't agree with everything he says i don't agree with everything anybody says if you if you find
01:40:25.040
yourself agreeing with every single thing somebody says you're a fucking sheep yeah you know and that
01:40:31.040
doesn't mean that you have to like like people you know like dude when you start to get successful
01:40:35.440
you have two kinds of people you have the kind of people who will tell you yes and then you'll have
01:40:39.100
the kind of people who will tell you no just because they think nobody else is telling you no
01:40:43.120
you know what i'm saying so they truly agree with you but because they want to like check you
01:40:48.140
or keep you humble they'll like point that's where the astro calls come in yeah i'm saying
01:40:52.380
they they will say shit like disagree with you just so no one else no one girls do this a lot
01:40:58.680
like when you're dating them no one else no one else will tell you blah blah so i'll fucking tell
01:41:03.580
you like they think and they don't even believe it right exactly it's just like yeah people do that
01:41:08.520
so but the point of what i'm saying is is like dude you shouldn't agree with everything and that
01:41:12.880
doesn't mean you need to attack every like dude when i see some shit that like sean posts i don't agree
01:41:16.840
with guess what i don't do don't like it i don't like it and i don't fucking comment on it right and
01:41:21.000
then i scroll on and then i text them later and i'm like hey bro what do you what about this gun
01:41:24.860
or what about this like i don't even fucking think about it like i know i'm not going to agree with
01:41:29.020
everybody so i don't fucking care right you know what i mean i do happen to agree with most of the
01:41:33.180
shit sean says and whatever you believe and i i say this because there's going to be somebody who's
01:41:38.600
kind of come up with the exception but what whatever you believe is not a threat to me or what i
01:41:43.900
believe no me so so you can believe whatever you want and i'll agree and other things like you know
01:41:48.480
what's fucking funny dude is like when you're somebody like you or me or sean or gary or anybody
01:41:53.460
who puts their fucking shit out there you got people who will uh they will come and they will
01:41:59.740
they make it their point to like disagree with you in the most like abrasive way possible yes that
01:42:06.460
like dude if they like if and if it was in real life they wouldn't even say they wouldn't say anything
01:42:10.820
they wouldn't say anything to you like but on the internet they gotta they write this shit like
01:42:15.400
oh fuck you andy you're a piece of shit because you said you like fucking french fries better than
01:42:20.440
nude pictures you know like i fucking hate you but then i go to their page and i see that they're
01:42:26.120
following me i'm like you're still following me bro like if this made you that mad just leave yes
01:42:31.220
like i don't understand that shit like i have dude i have never one time ever ever ever ever ever
01:42:37.000
ever gone on somebody else's page when i disagreed and fucking commented about it right you know why
01:42:42.920
because dude that's their fucking yard and you know what you know what and you're you know what
01:42:47.900
you can do in your yard anything you want if you want to fucking you could cut your grass whatever
01:42:53.160
you want you cannot cut your grass you could shit in the yard you could piss in the yard i piss in my
01:42:58.760
fucking yard my neighbors think i'm a fucking hoosier you know what because i am you know what i'm
01:43:03.080
saying and in missouri hoosier means redneck so i you know i fucking am and that's me like i'm gonna do
01:43:09.980
whatever the fuck i want in my yard and like that's how i see people's socials like i see i see
01:43:15.480
and you know what the truth is dude because i've had this happen to me a lot somebody will say
01:43:20.800
something like so over the top crazy and i'm like i've gotten it so much now and i'm like damn dude
01:43:25.520
like this guy's having a fucking bad day yeah and i'll dm him and i'll be like bro
01:43:29.380
like i saw that comment like you having a bad day right like and they'll be like yeah fuck you and i'm
01:43:37.200
like hey man like i'm not like trying to be a dick i'm just saying like hey you know you're
01:43:43.700
taking this way too serious and you know what happens every time every fucking time they're
01:43:48.220
like bro you know what sorry i'm sorry yeah i was having a bad fucking day i had a guy message me
01:43:53.000
the other day and he's like he's like your book is 25 bucks and jordan peterson's is 20 and he's a
01:44:01.020
doctor and eric davis is 18 and he's a navy seal and blah blah blah blah about why my book shouldn't
01:44:09.220
be 25 i said cool dude don't buy it or buy the kindle version for nine bucks but i don't know
01:44:14.040
what's going on in your day that makes you think like i have to be the brunt end of this right and
01:44:18.440
he wrote back a couple hours later he's like bro you're right dude i was having a bad day man i'm
01:44:22.740
sorry about that i had another guy do it on a drunk rant one day yeah i got that before too yeah you
01:44:27.780
know what's funny dude is that you you you can maintain all your power with those people by just
01:44:32.600
not caring right like people don't like people don't realize like like when i respond back and
01:44:38.380
i'm a smart ass they're like oh you fucking you must really care no dude i'm like on my end i'm
01:44:43.240
laughing yeah like i'm laughing about this like i'm sitting there you just made this rude comment
01:44:47.800
and you're completely irritated pissed off and i'm sitting there with my friends or with tyler or with
01:44:52.340
emily and we're fucking laughing like i'm laughing about it you know what i mean like
01:44:57.720
they don't realize that like on the back end like it's doesn't i don't care anything like if
01:45:01.840
you follow me cool if you don't follow me i don't care like if you if you decided not follow me that's
01:45:08.200
probably a good idea because you're you're separating yourself from something that irritates you and
01:45:13.440
that's good for you so there's places you can go that you will probably resonate with other people's
01:45:18.740
shit and that's great go do that dude that's great like dude that's great everybody should find
01:45:24.660
what they resonate right and follow that shit but like if you're gonna come on page and be like oh
01:45:28.860
why do you use the f word so much you know why because i fucking like it and that's how i talk
01:45:34.140
and that's what i communicate with and that's my fucking brand so if you can't understand that basic
01:45:40.180
aspect of that you can't question and believe that that may be really how andy talks yeah then you're
01:45:48.180
you're not getting it right like when i say authentic like when i go to christmas dinner
01:45:52.540
and i fucking sit at the table at christmas and people tell me hey andy how's your day
01:45:58.180
there's not probably going to be a sentence that comes out without the word fuck
01:46:02.340
at christmas dinner in front of my grandma and my mom and my fucking whoever whoever happens to be
01:46:07.520
there because i'm comfortable being who i am you know what i mean and if that upsets people i don't
01:46:14.420
know what to do you know oh fine well and you know what though if you you know quote unquote cleaned up
01:46:20.600
your language everybody else everybody else would know that would be other people i don't why are
01:46:25.280
you the old andy the way you used to right you know people complain about that so dude there's
01:46:30.180
always something i know man it is always going to be something yeah that's what it is dude uh i saw
01:46:35.080
this crazy this meme got sent to me and it was a picture i gotta i gotta fucking pull it up because
01:46:40.440
it's really good um somebody sent me this meme uh a while back and it was such a good representation of
01:46:49.580
of how people are um let's see who sent that to me i'm scrolling through my phone
01:46:56.240
it was stormy storm i believe which is a brand ambassador for for storm storm three she sent me
01:47:06.920
this meme and in the top corner it shows a man and a woman on a donkey and it said the caption is
01:47:13.020
these two other people watching them and then the caption uh says two people on a donkey's back poor
01:47:17.540
animal so in the next in the next uh slide it's there the man's on the donkey and the woman's walking
01:47:24.700
it says how cruel he is by letting his wife walk and the next slide she's riding the donkey and he's
01:47:31.700
walking and it says how stupid is he by letting his wife ride on the donkey alone and then on the
01:47:37.640
last on the last slide it shows them both walking next to the donkey and it says fools don't even
01:47:43.400
know how to utilize a donkey right oh that's the world we fucking live in exactly you're never gonna
01:47:48.260
do it fucking never never you know so just do it do it the way you're gonna do it yeah right the only
01:47:53.600
thing i've ever done if i have have not liked enough people's thoughts and ideas on their social
01:47:59.300
anything is just go click that little unfollow button yeah right i've never made a comment or
01:48:04.400
it's like no i don't agree i don't like i'm out me too right like there's shit that irritates me
01:48:10.860
every day i just decide like okay well if you if you irritate me one time i'm like oh that's who they
01:48:17.480
are you know that's what they believe i can respect that right like dude fucking emily sears emily
01:48:22.280
sears is a brand ambassador for first form all right she's got fucking 10 million followers on
01:48:26.960
instagram she's super fucking like over the top feminist right like i have a hard time relating
01:48:31.980
to like some of the shit that she gets all worked up about and i've told her this but you know what
01:48:36.980
i respect it like hey that's her fucking point of view that's her page i don't agree with everything
01:48:41.360
she posts but you know what i respect her and dude half of the shit she posts is hilarious so like
01:48:48.260
when if that level of like not agreeing with her and thinking it was weird or not got to a point
01:48:54.340
where it was like everything she posts guess what i would do i would not follow her just leave
01:48:58.040
right and i wouldn't say hey you fucking suck change your thing for me yeah it's just an arrogant
01:49:03.460
thing to say like oh change your whole fucking opinions for me like dude i actually respect
01:49:07.900
people that have opinions about things right at least they have courage like i might not understand
01:49:12.240
all the feminist stuff and like all the the things they got going on i don't i don't understand it
01:49:17.420
i'll be the first one to admit i'll also be the first one to admit that like i don't really try to
01:49:22.580
understand it because like to me the way how aggressive it is makes it doesn't make sense to
01:49:27.580
me and you know what i might be one of the motherfuckers they talk about like where they
01:49:30.900
say the one thing they like to say is uh not all guys like that's the saying they said so like maybe
01:49:36.700
i'm that guy i'm not all guys i don't fucking know i don't know where to fuck like what i do know
01:49:41.240
is like how would you date a girl like that like like dude we're like everything you would say would be
01:49:46.460
like yeah we're the wrong thing right like i'm the wrong thing because i have a penis like so i
01:49:51.940
don't try to understand it because honestly i don't give a fuck you know what i'm saying but
01:49:55.660
that's her what she's passionate about and that's what she's into and i'm cool with that you know
01:49:59.580
what i mean like i don't i don't have to argue everything like once you let go of like having to
01:50:04.160
be right about everything dude your whole fucking world gets a lot less stressful you know you don't
01:50:08.520
have to be right you can you can be understand people are the way they are they believe what they
01:50:13.260
want to believe you don't have to fucking change their opinion that's what i get like with these
01:50:17.520
motherfuckers on politics like where they spend hours upon hours upon hours upon hours trying to
01:50:23.000
make their fucking point you know why the arguments of politics are so fiery because people are so
01:50:28.380
invested in their position right that no matter what you say you will not change it so why are you
01:50:34.320
fucking spending 50 fucking hours a day arguing with them it is never going to change you're better
01:50:40.100
off saying that's how they believe it like that's their worldview that's what they believe that's
01:50:46.300
been their perspective that's how they grew up and you know what i didn't grow up that same way so
01:50:50.860
i believe different things and you know what we can still have a fucking beer together yep you
01:50:54.820
know what i mean yeah exactly like it's just it's so weird man like it's why i'm just glad i'm like
01:51:00.260
past that point in my life because i used to be like that dude i used to be the guy i had to
01:51:03.700
fucking be right like i had to argue i had i had so much of that in me like if i saw somebody like
01:51:10.060
if somebody said something and i fucking didn't agree i have to like say something back and like
01:51:14.940
go i'd go back and forth on the internet in my own comment section for fucking hours
01:51:19.220
you know what i do now i either ignore it or if it's like something rude i just fucking block them
01:51:24.800
fuck i don't care i always i always just kind of ask in my head like who who when people get like
01:51:29.560
that like who are you trying to convince yeah like are you trying to convince me or yourself or
01:51:33.960
like it's usually yourself it's their self yeah yeah yeah they've got some issues that they're
01:51:38.460
trying to work towards or through or whatever that they have things the way they see right right you
01:51:43.140
know or that i'm not compassionate enough to to whatever come on bro like hey for what i care about
01:51:49.560
the shit i care about in my life i'm doing pretty fucking good yeah you know i'm saying like i don't
01:51:54.000
really care like if you come on my page some fucking rant about whatever it is you care about
01:51:57.520
i'd likely don't give a fuck you know what i'm saying well you'd be talking about it i would be
01:52:02.320
i'd be talking about it it'd be important to me i'd be fucking blah blah blah like dude when people
01:52:08.340
bring these issues to me like i don't fucking care i care about what i care about like just like you
01:52:13.920
care about what you care about and you care about what you care about and you care about putting
01:52:18.360
dude's penises in your mouth and that's cool i don't mind that you he's talking to tyler yeah when
01:52:24.200
you yes it's totally talking to you when you finally fucking admit to everybody you're gay
01:52:28.540
no one's gonna care bro like everybody's gonna be like dude okay we already knew that like you
01:52:33.460
know what i'm saying like dude i'm gonna fuck if somebody's gay or if they're black or i don't care
01:52:37.080
about none of that shit and like you know so tyler when you're when you come out and you're finally
01:52:41.920
out when i'm ready yeah yeah there's a there's a line there's gonna be just as many people around
01:52:45.880
as there is now there's a line in a movie i can't remember a movie and and the guy one one of the
01:52:50.640
friends is gay and he comes out and he tells everybody he's gay and and he like coming out
01:52:54.640
of the closet yeah and they're like and the guys are like we already know that yeah he's like yeah
01:52:57.920
if you weren't gay you'd be a really weird dude dude you know what's funny man and sad at the same
01:53:03.540
time a guy i've known for a long long time is is gay and everybody knows he's gay but he won't say
01:53:09.320
nobody knows oh yeah like we legitimately and it's not tyler like it's a different guy but like dude i want
01:53:14.120
to message him or fucking tell him be like bro it's okay man i know you like the meat popsicle bro
01:53:19.460
it's cool man like you know what i'm saying like i like you know i don't fucking care right
01:53:25.080
nobody really cares it's okay right like dude if you've seriously discriminated somebody because
01:53:30.020
they're gay or because they're fucking black or eight you're a piece of shit like on a different
01:53:34.380
kind of level for sure like it's it's sad to me the society hasn't like grown past that yeah like
01:53:40.180
and you know what's fucked up is that the the fucking 99 of people we suffer the consequences
01:53:46.880
of the one percent of the lowest common denominator right like people who literally are racist right
01:53:52.040
or people who literally are homophobic and then you get the other 99 talking about it
01:53:57.620
and the fucking it gets tarnished we all get tarnished because of the scum yep you know what
01:54:02.400
i'm saying and like it's sad because social media is what brought that to the fucking forefront
01:54:06.680
like i almost feel like if we didn't have social a lot of these issues wouldn't even be fucking
01:54:11.020
issues like i feel like racism issue was much less of an issue 15 years ago than it is today
01:54:15.960
yeah people argue oh well that's because we didn't bring awareness about it no you're bringing
01:54:20.220
awareness to the worst possible scenarios right and and applying it across the norm as the norm
01:54:25.240
it's not the fucking norm right like dude when these fucking things happen like like there's a
01:54:30.160
racially motivated crime or a fucking uh a gender motivated issue or this or that dude 99 of people
01:54:37.960
are like damn dude that's fucked up right nobody argues that it's not it's a we know it's a bad thing
01:54:42.920
we're not right yeah and and you know unfortunately because the internet we all get lumped in this
01:54:47.480
fucking these categories because of what gender we happen to be or where our skin color is or where
01:54:53.400
we fucking grew up and dude it's sad you know what i'm saying like i get i'm gender neutral we
01:54:59.180
know like but dude you know like that's the truth you know what's fucked up dude like my friends
01:55:05.000
that that i'm friends with that are fucking gay like tyler like i make fun of them for being gay
01:55:09.780
like my friends who are black i fucking tell black jokes too and they're fine we fucking joke
01:55:14.540
around like they make fun of me for smelling like fucking baloney and i make fun of them you know
01:55:19.100
for what the black like we we're friends right like it's a fucking joke and like dude people need
01:55:24.980
to calm the fuck down dude like calm down you know what i'm saying like if you're my friend and you're
01:55:30.580
black i'm going to fucking make fun of you because you're black period and it's it's gonna happen so if
01:55:35.400
you're black and we're not friends if you're black and i don't make fun of you and we're not
01:55:39.360
fucking friends you know what i'm saying like if you're gay and i don't make fun of you for being
01:55:42.620
gay and people are like oh my god you're fucking terrible human no i'm not i'm actually the guy
