Summary
Life is like a movie, everyone is a character in their own personal movie. We all have our own character in our own movie, but what happens when we don t see ourselves as the main character in that movie? Do you see yourself as a side character in your own movie? Are you the side character?

While we're here, does anyone else live with pure main character energy?
00:00:04.640
Because if you're not living life like life's a movie and you're the protagonist, here's why you should be.
00:00:38.780
They've been doing fire inspections all day long. Perfect time to leave.
00:00:53.020
This is the part of the movie where the protagonist is tired and just doesn't want to be at the airport anymore.
00:01:14.160
See right there, see that's the main character shot.
00:01:19.800
When I became the main character, I'd say probably about around 5th grade.
00:01:27.200
What movie inspired you to become the main character?
00:01:41.140
It was dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream, dream.
00:01:51.720
You know I probably mess around with another man.
00:01:57.400
Life was completely uninteresting before I started viewing myself like the main character.
00:02:03.080
The problem is if you're not the main character, then by default you're an NPC walking in the background of someone else's movie.
00:02:25.500
What held me back for so long from being the main character in my own story is other people thinking that it's narcissistic.
00:02:34.820
Then you come to realize the only people using words like narcissism are the side characters.
00:02:39.720
I really ask you, are you the main character in your movie?
00:02:54.640
Like, it's all, and there's like billions of people out there.
00:03:01.100
If we all view life through our own personal lens, like the camera in a movie, everyone is a character in your own personal movie.
00:03:15.540
If we all view life through our own personal lens the same way a movie is shot through one camera,
00:03:20.420
then the best character to be would be the hero.
00:03:25.120
Whenever something difficult happens in life, it's written that you're going to be able to overcome it.
00:03:29.620
This is the part where the main character boards the plane that's not going to crash.
00:03:36.540
This scene, he randomly got upgraded to first class.
00:03:52.760
I live streamed UFC 314 at floor seats and I love being at that section because you get to be around all the main characters at the same time.
00:04:07.600
From politicians, to business moguls, to fighters and celebrities.
00:04:11.200
And the funny part about it is you see former main characters as well as current ones, the washed up ones,
00:04:17.960
and people who are trying to get it back and whoever is popular right now.
00:04:23.060
The funniest part was seeing Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, all of Trump's former political opposition,
00:04:28.780
now sitting next to him trying to get some semblance of clout from him.
00:04:32.460
They went from Lion's Head and Snakey Rubio to just people who orbit around Trump.
00:04:39.180
They're just there hoping, waiting, looking at the camera for that one second they could get on the UFC screen to get a couple more votes.
00:04:45.760
And that's the funniest part about the 2016 debates that changed U.S. politics.
00:04:50.220
Back when Trump was debating against Rubio and Ted Cruz, Trump was the anti-hero.
00:04:55.180
He was playing the main character who wasn't afraid of being called a bully or being made fun of for his orange hair.
00:05:00.300
He had the perfect combination of conviction, confidence, delusion, and ability.
00:05:06.760
They either weren't confident enough, they didn't have enough money,
00:05:09.360
there wasn't that same belief that a main character of a movie would have.
00:05:12.980
In 2016, even though Trump was the outsider and wasn't a politician,
00:05:16.780
he stood on that podium next to every other politician and had full conviction that this was his.
00:05:22.460
And now you see all those other attempted main characters like Cruz and Rubio,
00:05:26.220
and even Elon Musk, who wasn't a Trump supporter back then,
00:05:28.860
sitting around him because they want the chance to be there too.
00:05:36.240
For two and a half years before he fought Floyd Mayweather,
00:05:39.120
Conor McGregor was walking everywhere and commanding the attention of the protagonist.
00:05:43.900
And the criticism you see from MMA fans now is that he's a shell of his former self.
00:05:50.900
he doesn't have that same competence and belief.
00:05:53.780
Back in 2016, Conor would say he would knock out a champion with a left hook after stepping back and countering,
00:06:00.240
If you look back at the Conor McGregor press conferences from 2016,
00:06:03.360
you can see his unwavering ability to be confident,
00:06:08.680
and market a fight perfectly because of his belief in himself.
00:06:11.820
One of the perfect examples of main character energy.
00:06:16.720
what would the hero version of Conor McGregor do at this part of the movie?
00:06:22.240
People are saying I'm a shell of my former self.
00:06:24.560
This is the part of the movie where I remember that essence that made me the great person that I was.
00:06:29.720
I would think this is the part of the movie where the hero cuts off all distractions
00:06:33.340
and is able to refine the essence that made the great fighter that once was.
00:06:42.100
Nobody wants to watch a movie of a washed-up has-been that stays a washed-up has-been.
00:06:46.620
You know how I can't mess around, mess around town.
00:06:59.200
I have the red glasses too, but I couldn't put them on.
00:07:02.000
I know if I put them on, I'd have given you free content.
00:07:10.120
I'm about to hit the next level exotic parts of the world right now, bro.
00:07:35.960
This has sat here for four months and we have not done one podcast here.
00:07:38.840
So let's relaunch it right now when I'm in town.
00:07:50.780
In the summer, I'm going to host parties here and stuff.
00:07:57.380
Well, I was telling Sneeko I'm doing a three-day fast on Thursday to Sunday because that's
00:08:02.760
Easter and that's a year ago when the kidnapping happened, which quite frankly, Sneeko was
00:08:07.920
there who helped make it viral when we needed it to be.
00:08:18.360
The fact that you can speak it live from a different country.
00:08:27.620
And then that guy all of a sudden becomes scared of it.
00:08:33.080
That is the best example of the power of social media.
00:08:35.920
And it seems like he's got support from Dana, which is super dope.
00:08:38.140
That is, here's the first promotion that Dana White has ever supported.
00:08:41.480
But who do you got in my upcoming fight with Fresh Prince CEO?
00:08:46.340
I feel like, look, I got, I'm not into the drama stuff, okay?
00:08:53.400
I knew that guy was a snake from the first time I met him.
00:08:58.220
I also blocked him on Twitter, even though we've never had any interaction.
00:09:03.120
Like, someone who does that and then, like, threatens Haram videos.
00:09:09.640
That means the whole time that we were friends, he was gathering videos.
00:09:15.440
Like, why would anyone ever want to be friends with you?
00:09:35.800
Look at these influencers vlogging two conversations with two different cameras.
00:09:39.380
We had a dude yesterday, while he was trying to sell us a ticket, another dude with a metal
00:09:43.060
back came behind him and swung at him, and he gave him a warning shot to the body, and
00:09:59.940
I've been trying to convince him to live here for the past six years, and he never does.
00:10:04.140
And every time he comes here, he's like, oh yeah, I should, and then doesn't.
00:10:23.140
Or since you saw a movie that made you realize?
00:10:38.140
Right now, I'm somewhat of a main character, because I got lenses pointed at me and stuff,
00:10:42.540
and I've got to pretend to be important, you know?
00:10:44.900
What movie inspired you to become the main character?
00:10:48.940
Where he says yes to just everything, instead of saying no.
00:10:55.860
If that movie was sort of girl, it'd be a lot different.
00:10:58.600
If she had to say yes to everyone, that'd be a dark movie.
00:11:03.240
It would probably make it to your Twitter feed.
00:11:10.640
The first one that came to mind was the same Jim Carrey, Truman Show.
00:11:38.060
Can you explain, what do you think is the difference between streaming and what you're doing now?
00:11:41.260
The difference between streaming and what I'm doing now is that if you were streaming
00:11:58.080
The more expensive the rest of the restaurant, the less they fill up the water.
00:12:01.020
You know, if it's really expensive, they fill up halfway.
00:12:17.320
Ask for the truth and you'll receive the truth.
00:12:29.400
Sipping the fucking Johnny Walker in the war room by myself with him.
