Do you know what's happening when they're playing, or do you only know when the ball goes in?
00:00:53.000
You know, Boulder's like the People's Republic of Boulder.
00:01:09.000
Like super excited that they know so much about soccer and yelling.
00:01:16.000
But if you go to England, you'll feel good about it.
00:01:26.000
They probably had a dad that was in the Navy or some shit.
00:01:30.000
Got bullied around at home, and they just went the total opposite hard way.
00:01:35.000
He's a tough sell, especially if you're an athlete, like a black athlete.
00:01:53.000
Yeah, if you're into fucking hiking and fucking water rafting and shit.
00:02:02.000
Where if you go to a southern school like Georgia or Tennessee, you're a god.
00:02:07.000
You're getting your dick sucked every fucking period after class.
00:02:21.000
Did you know that wolves and bears and wolves and grizzly bears are making their way back into Colorado?
00:02:31.000
Well, they killed them off in the 1800s, and then they reintroduced them to Yellowstone.
00:02:36.000
And mostly they stayed around Wyoming and Montana, where Yellowstone is, and they made their way into Idaho.
00:02:42.000
But now they've definitely spotted them in Colorado, and they're also a very credible source.
00:02:49.000
In fact, my friend Adam Greentree took video of what he said was a grizzly bear, and he knows the difference.
00:02:55.000
Yeah, it was in the San Juan Mountains in Colorado last September.
00:02:59.000
So they think that there's a population of grizzly bears.
00:03:04.000
And if you watch the news, like the local news in LA, which I do, especially when I get depressed, there's a bunch of black bears in hot tubs and shit just popping up.
00:03:20.000
So, like, for them to find a spot that's filled with water, it's probably terrible for them, unless you have a salt pool.
00:03:28.000
Like, if the bear's drinking all that chlorine.
00:03:39.000
Yeah, what percentage of hot tubs do people fucking?
00:03:45.000
In Pasadena, they're just rocking it out out there.
00:03:49.000
There's a funny video, man, of this dude in Pasadena, and he's on his phone, and he's walking down an alley, and as he turns and walks down the alley, he's just on his phone, and he's looking down.
00:03:58.000
He looks up, and there's a fucking bear right in front of him.
00:04:03.000
The bear doesn't know what to do, and he just runs.
00:04:07.000
Dude, so the homie is just not paying attention.
00:04:13.000
Like you saw the homeboys in Seattle get fucked up.
00:04:22.000
It was all fucked up and sick and it only weighed like 90 something pounds, but it still fucked both of those dudes up.
00:04:29.000
But they tell you, like, oh, use your bike as a shield and scare him off.
00:04:42.000
Runs off and that line goes, where the fuck are you going?
00:04:47.000
You know, that happened in Beijing, too, with the lady who got out of the car and a tiger attacked her at the wild animal park.
00:04:54.000
She got out of the car, the tiger attacked her.
00:05:14.000
He's like, fuck, which is, by the way, the worst fucking thing you could do.
00:05:20.000
See if you can pull back, you can see where the bear walks behind those bushes.
00:05:38.000
Yes, you definitely don't want to run away, because their instincts are to chase.
00:05:41.000
Yeah, but they say when you get loud and, like, challenge them, like, you hear about that...
00:05:48.000
They saw a bear, and, you know, it's like, play dead, or...
00:05:51.000
Or do your thing when you play dead, or get real big and loud.
00:05:54.000
They don't know exactly what to do, but I guess in the Boy Scout fucking handbook it says to get loud and make a scene.
00:06:00.000
I don't know if I got loud and made a scene, and that bear was like, oh cool, hey kids, watch this.
00:06:05.000
Ate them asshole first in front of the whole squad.
00:06:11.000
Well, the problem is bears are just like every other animal, right?
00:06:17.000
Some dogs just come over their house and they're like, hey, what's going on?
00:06:21.000
And then some dudes come over their house and their dog's checking you out.
00:06:26.000
They get around you and the hair comes up and you're like, oh my god, his hair's up?
00:06:47.000
Apparently the worst thing that could happen is you walk into a female with their cubs.
00:06:52.000
A female grizzly with their cubs should just light you up.
00:06:58.000
I was listening to some bitch on the news because they were talking about black bears in hot tubs and if you run into one, this lady was saying, go...
00:07:14.000
They fight with each other, which they do all the time.
00:07:25.000
Especially during the rut, like in the springtime.
00:07:28.000
They fucking bite each other's faces and it doesn't even look like anything happened.
00:07:32.000
They bite the shit out of each other and nothing happens.
00:07:43.000
He's dead on a special, so you won't mind me saying it, but Callan has an old bit where people go, Oh, just punch a shark in the nose.
00:08:05.000
Ali used to do a lot of shadow boxing underwater.
00:08:16.000
He was the first one I knew was doing work in the water and actually for, I mean, months would drive down to Laguna Niguel where he's working out and we do these water workouts.
00:08:34.000
That sounds more like someone with a mental disability.
00:08:40.000
You definitely sound like someone who doesn't know English that good.
00:08:43.000
So anyways, he goes, you're coming on Wednesday.
00:08:53.000
Well, he does a lot of jumping, which is really interesting.
00:08:56.000
I was like, yeah, you could generate maximum force jumping in the water, and it's probably real easy on the joints in comparison.
00:09:04.000
It's easy on the joints, but I was listening to one expert talk about it.
00:09:09.000
Actually, I think Loren Landau was telling me he's a strength coach for the Denver Broncos now.
00:09:14.000
He was saying, it's good to mix in, but to do it every week all the time, especially in the sand or water, you're not getting the same explosiveness.
00:09:22.000
You're not generating the same explosive power.
00:09:25.000
Yeah, because if you're just doing that, it's actually going to make you less explosive.
00:09:32.000
Like Landau, but those dudes that are just on the cutting edge.
00:09:35.000
They're constantly comparing studies and just trying to get that little extra edge.
00:09:43.000
The world of strength and conditioning has never been more complicated.
00:09:47.000
Because there's no more bro science, though, also.
00:09:49.000
Because there's actual experts who are like, you can look it up now.
00:09:52.000
Back in the day, my buddy was like, dude, just eat fucking egg whites, which we know is a terrible thing.
00:09:57.000
Just eat egg whites and drink milk and you're going to get fucking swole.
00:10:03.000
Just take this BSN NXO explode and you'll be jacked, bro.
00:10:10.000
There's still some variables, but when it comes to the guys that get paid big bucks to train top-level athletes, they seem to all be kind of on the same page.
00:10:28.000
They might have this variation here, this variation here, but most of them agree on the same fucking thing.
00:10:34.000
No one's saying you need to be powerlifting only.
00:10:40.000
A lot of them are saying doing max reps and multiple days and all this stuff.
00:11:02.000
Feroz was giving us some insight into his philosophy on training.
00:11:11.000
But one of the more interesting things that he said was that you should never feel sore.
00:11:17.000
He's like, you should work out and you should build yourself up to the point where you never feel sore and never push yourself past your limit.
00:11:31.000
He was talking about just do more of it in a day.
00:11:37.000
Yeah, he was saying that if you do like sets, like do a set, like here's a for instance.
00:11:44.000
Yeah, it was like if you did a certain amount, I forget the numbers he was talking about, but if you did a certain amount of work, let's just to paraphrase, say if you do 20 chin-ups, and you do two sets of 20 chin-ups, you like barely can get 20, and you're burnt out afterwards, and you're wrecked.
00:11:59.000
Or, instead of that, you're doing 40 reps, right?
00:12:03.000
Either way, do 40 of them throughout the day, but do it five reps at a time.
00:12:11.000
But the idea being, well, I think it's a different thing.
00:12:14.000
But the idea being to get yourself into this position where you can train hard, especially with physical fitness type stuff, shouldn't break your body down totally.
00:12:24.000
You should just give your body enough of a chance to fully recover and then build up.
00:12:29.000
I think we have to be a little careful with it because for us, specializes in mixed martial arts where there's so many disciplines where you can't go balls to the wall in strength condition.
00:12:41.000
You have to kind of monitor those things and figure it out.
00:12:44.000
So I think it's a little bit of a biased thing.
00:12:46.000
I think as far as it goes, it's mixed martial arts.
00:12:48.000
Loren Landell's been saying that forever because I'd go super hard in the weight room.
00:12:51.000
He's like, I'm telling you, tonight you have wrestling.
00:12:58.000
Yeah, they think that doing weightlifting in lower reps more often is the way to do it.
00:13:06.000
But when you're training for a fight, you're going to have to push yourself, right?
00:13:10.000
There's going to be certain things like whether it's hill sprints or whatever it is, I mean, you're going to push yourself to the limit.
00:13:19.000
Bisping and GSB had the same concept in training with both of them.
00:13:22.000
I remember Bisping, he would go so hard in practice.
00:13:26.000
When he would warm up, his repetitions, striking, hitting mitts, wrestling, jiu-jitsu, everything was super high-paced.
00:13:47.000
I mean, he was always at the cutting edge when it came to doing gymnastics.
00:13:55.000
My big ass, I'd watch him do all these flips like, alright, man, let me try this bullshit fucking cartwheel.
00:14:07.000
I was the biggest one in there for sure, and the rest were all eight-year-old girls who were just monsters.
00:14:13.000
And then Nate and GSP. I just looked like this big Shrek character in there.
00:14:19.000
Gymnastics is probably the sport that gets dudes the most jacked.
00:14:45.000
I don't think it's the same thing we're talking about here.
00:14:53.000
Like if LeBron got into gymnastics, he's not going to be jacked.
00:15:06.000
But they've also been lifting like that since like four months old.
00:15:10.000
All I was getting at before your horrific ableist rant Do you know what ableist is?
00:15:20.000
If you make fun of someone who has a disability, you're ableist, including stupid people.
00:15:27.000
Okay, the average height for adult male gymnasts is around 5'4 to 5'7.
00:15:58.000
There was an article, does gymnastics stunt growth.
00:16:06.000
Well, they say lifting young stunt your growth, right?
00:16:13.000
Maybe you'd be fucking super giant if you didn't.
00:16:16.000
Maybe I should have been fucking playing basketball.
00:16:27.000
Maybe there's short people who are drawn to it.
00:16:36.000
Scientific community isn't entirely sure, but the idea that gymnasts would have grown to be a foot taller if they hadn't spent the time on the parallel bars is absolutely a myth.
00:17:02.000
That's a crazy sport, man, when everything is like ready, set, go.
00:17:12.000
You know, it's there, and then you have to nail it.
00:17:30.000
Look, if I find out something you like, I'm going to start mocking it.
00:17:37.000
If you can't make fun of some shit that I like, man, I like a lot of dumb shit.
00:17:53.000
It is, because they've been doing it forever over there.
00:17:55.000
But as far as the U.S.? It's me and Hulk Hogan.
00:18:15.000
Back in the day at Gold's, guys would have them.
00:18:27.000
That guy's had a shitload of back surgeries, man.
00:18:37.000
Probably for like WrestleMania appearance or something.
00:19:00.000
See, I think if Chuck Liddell was still an employee of the UFC getting paid $400,000 just to chill or whatever he was doing for the UFC, he would not be fighting.
00:19:06.000
I think it's more of a money play, which bums me out.
00:19:09.000
Because I think Chuck Liddell and Tito Ortiz, what they did for the sport, should be compensated for the rest of their lives.
00:19:14.000
It bums me out they have to fight to make money.
00:19:17.000
I don't know if Tito does so much, because he was very smart.
00:19:20.000
Chuck, it seems like maybe that's what's going on there.
00:19:24.000
But he also has been saying, you've got to wonder what...
00:19:28.000
Where this is coming from, but he has been saying that he misses it.
00:19:36.000
Like, if we're going to live forever, if we're going to live forever, I would say, yeah, definitely don't do it.
00:19:44.000
Because you're just going to keep damaging yourself.
00:19:50.000
He's 48. So let's say we're going to live to 100. Let's say Chuck lives to 100. He's halfway there.
00:19:57.000
Let's say he's going to live to 100. You never know.
00:20:11.000
So let's say he lives to 100. He's basically halfway there.
00:20:15.000
Dude, at the halfway mark, fighting, it can't be healthy, man.
00:20:42.000
I want them to parlay their careers like a Michael Strahan or Kobe Bryant, where there are legends and then they move on to do great things.
00:20:51.000
But I also, if they wanted to compete, if it was because they wanted to compete, I wonder where it makes sense to tell them they can't or they shouldn't.
00:21:01.000
Because if they want to do it, if they both want to do it, like if they had money and they're like, so what is it about it?
00:21:14.000
I think it's the fact that they have a little bit, See, I think Tito did better financially.
00:21:24.000
He might actually want this fight just to fight Chuck again.
00:21:33.000
Yeah, I mean, he's been fighting and doing well over the last few years.
00:21:49.000
Everyone who's fighting in these older leagues, or if Golden Boy, if that's your thing to do, like this Master League, everyone fighting that league better pray to the MMA gods.
00:22:00.000
Vitor Belfort does not enter that fucking thing, juice to the gills.
00:22:17.000
Does something happens to Vitor when he fills up with super unleaded?
00:22:39.000
We know for sure, we all know, absolutely 100% that people have cheated and taken steroids and got away with it.
00:22:46.000
I know it, you know that, especially in fighting, especially when the weigh-ins were the only day you had a pee, and there was no randoms, they didn't just come by.
00:22:56.000
But when you watch someone who's just doing testosterone, and what else he's doing?
00:23:03.000
With a human growth hormone, and he's fucking gigantic now!
00:23:07.000
I love it too, but what you get there, it's a different thing.
00:23:12.000
Like, for Vitor, like, something happens with him, like, when they allowed him to take it, like during the Rockhold fight, and the Bisping fight, dude, his body ate it up.
00:23:27.000
You let him do it, so he doesn't feel guilty about it.
00:23:31.000
He's finding a way where it's still legal when he was doing it.
00:23:35.000
He got permission from the UFC to do it in the commission.
00:23:40.000
But if you go back before he did it, Like, did you see when he fought Sexy Yama?
00:23:50.000
And everyone wants to go, a lot of people go, oh, he did steroids, whatever sport, Sammy Sosa, Mark McGuire, Barry Bonds.
00:23:58.000
You take steroids, try hitting those fucking home runs.
00:24:01.000
In fighting, a lot of people were doing, I'm not going to say names.
00:24:06.000
So when Jon Jones tested hot against DC, right?
00:24:11.000
If DC was doing the same stuff, would he have beat Jon?
00:24:15.000
Well, it was a very close fight up until that head kick, right?
00:24:19.000
You really never know what could have happened.
00:24:22.000
That's the thing about high-level fighting, right?
00:24:25.000
But however, that's what happened, so we have to judge it based on that.
00:24:28.000
If they were taking the same stuff, whatever you want to say John took, but if DC was saying, do you think the outcome would have been any different?
00:24:35.000
See, the John thing, we've gone over this, but we probably should go over this again, if anybody doesn't know the actual numbers.
00:24:42.000
He tested negative, then he tested positive for a minuscule amount.
00:24:52.000
So whatever happened, happened in a very short window, and it was an incredibly small amount of whatever that stuff was.
00:25:04.000
The thing about it is that stuff is supposed to stay in your system for a long time.
00:25:09.000
It would be a stupid thing to take because supposedly it's in your system for weeks.
00:25:20.000
I mean, that's what they were doing in baseball.
00:25:21.000
They were taking testosterone gummy bears and they would only last like three or four hours and your body would metabolize them.
00:25:28.000
They said A-Rod would eat them during the games.
00:25:30.000
And then by the time the game was over, it's out of the system.
00:25:40.000
Like everybody's like, I don't want my fucking athletes cheating.
00:25:43.000
But if we had the Russians' attitude about this...
00:25:49.000
How do the Russians feel about that documentary Icarus where that guy came on and claimed that all the Russian athletes were on steroids?
00:26:09.000
But the stuff with steroids, I think we put too much...
00:26:12.000
We almost put too much emphasis on the steroids.
00:26:16.000
Don't get me wrong, it fucking helps and helps a lot of guys.
00:26:18.000
But if everyone was on the same thing, Jon Jones would still be the greatest all time.
00:26:38.000
The problem is some people like Vitor, his body loves it.
00:26:53.000
Now that he's in the Wild West of Brazil and he's looking for something.
00:26:58.000
On his Instagram, he finds his fan and he's like, how long you been a fan?
00:27:10.000
Who's going to sign up to fight that fucking monster?
00:27:15.000
Does UFC still have him under contract or did he retire?
00:27:18.000
He retired, but just because you retired, and I know because I retired, your contract isn't voided, it's frozen.
00:27:27.000
I highly doubt all he's done for the UFC. I guarantee you could talk to Dana would let him go, I'd assume.
00:27:36.000
The scary thing about Chuck is Dana, who's obviously very close with Chuck for a long time.
00:27:42.000
Dana, this is Dana going, says, I don't think he should be fighting.
00:27:50.000
And when someone close to the situation says that, I'm like, oh, God.
00:27:55.000
Chuck versus Vitor was one of the first fights I ever called.
00:28:00.000
Completed his contract with the UFC last month in a loss to Liotta Machida.
00:28:06.000
The Phenom took to social media to hint at return and asked fans who they would like to see him fight next.
00:28:11.000
As usual, Frito, though, his choices were a bit curious.
00:28:17.000
He asked the fans, so he said Vanderlei, Chuck, Tito, Bisping, or Hendo.
00:28:26.000
You tell me you wouldn't watch Vanderlei, Vitor, and Bellator?
00:28:30.000
What if, imagine if Tito and Chuck fight, and Chuck wins.
00:28:44.000
I would text Chuck, like, please don't fight Vitor.
00:29:02.000
You can't be eating mangoes and dates and fucking almond butter and think you're going to compete with a sauced up Vitor.
00:29:13.000
Yeah, you can't fuck with any legitimate organizations.
00:29:17.000
All these organizations that want to sneak up on you in the middle of the night and test your pee.
00:29:24.000
How about there's guys like Josh Barnett, and even Liotto said this.
00:29:29.000
this goes with sign with the UFC because of USADA and obviously they've all been busted previously so they have a little different you know agreement with them but they're saying listen well Josh Barnett was not busted by Nowitzki right they came out he never took anything but he lost a year of his career yeah I don't understand the Josh Barnett case I I'd like to have him explain it, because it sounds like what I've read sounds like he got fucked.
00:30:09.000
It took some protein powder that was slightly contaminated.
00:30:14.000
With Josh Barnett, it took a year to figure this out.
00:30:19.000
Yeah, yeah, I know you missed a year and you're an older fighter and it's a year of not getting paid.
00:30:29.000
See, that seems to me to be a case where you've made an error that you should compensate that fighter.
00:30:43.000
That's like, I mean, I'm not a business person, but if I was a business person, I'd be like, well, this is a clear case of someone owing someone money because you fucked up.
00:30:52.000
But what you saw, I was going to say, it was an investigation.
00:30:55.000
It took us that long to get to the bottom of it.
00:31:01.000
So if they were wrong, so all their investigation stuff they did that took so long to get to the bottom of, you accused a guy who's innocent.
00:31:10.000
Yeah, but see, don't they say potentially flagged for PDs, right?
00:31:14.000
They don't say what you're flagged for, and then it goes into investigation.
00:31:18.000
But they don't say he suspended or he tested positive for this.
00:31:22.000
They say potentially flagged, and then there's an investigation.
00:31:27.000
I think that the USADA, especially under the whatever...
00:31:35.000
Guidelines that they had coming in here had a lot to work with, right?
00:31:39.000
There's a lot of fighters You got to figure out who's you got to test this one more tonight, so I mean it must be crazy Must be a nightmare.
00:31:48.000
I I think it's too much a very hard job I think it is too much to this 500 fighters on roster but a legend like Josh Barnett he deserves respect and That's the youngest ever heavyweight champion.
00:32:01.000
Agreed, Joe, and he's one of my favorite fighters and he's probably one of the smartest men they ever grace the octagon.
00:32:08.000
However, if you're Nowitzki and you look at the history of Josh Barnett, there's a reason to have skeptical golden snitch eyes on him because he's tested positive previously.
00:32:20.000
Like, if you have a track record, like, I'm gonna test over him a tad more, Vitor a tad more than Stipe or DC. How dare you?
00:32:28.000
Like, I just look at DC and be like, nah, you're good.
00:32:30.000
How about super unleaded DC? DC's 40 years old, son.
00:32:35.000
DC's 40 years old on the natch with just some powerful fucking Herculean genetics.
00:32:43.000
bro get him on that Vitor shit that gives you veins in your teeth Dude when he was there was a time when Vitor was they were had to face off with him and Rockhold and It was when he was doing the Mohawk thing.
00:33:02.000
Dude, it looked like he had a stingray hanging off the back of his neck.
00:33:12.000
This was when the weigh-ins were the real weigh-ins.
00:33:14.000
Rockhold told me, he looked right at him, he's like, what the fuck is this guy on?
00:33:18.000
They're just Winstral coming out of his eyeballs.
00:33:29.000
It's hard to tell from that picture because he's an actual 185 right there.
00:33:36.000
It's amazing the difference between some guys, like when they weigh in, like Yoel, when he weighs in at 185, he still looks super ridiculous, uber jacked at 185. You can't believe he only weighs 185 when he gets a big scale.
00:33:56.000
Your boy Whitaker was like, that motherfucker's...
00:34:05.000
He goes, obviously, you find him before, and he's aging, and this time he's even harder.
00:34:23.000
Let's say he's on something, Whitaker beat him twice.
00:34:28.000
I don't think this decision was just in the second fight.
00:34:39.000
If you're going to give Yoel a 10-8, then that's a draw.
00:34:45.000
Because then they're forced to have that trilogy fight.
00:34:51.000
I thought, like, there's too many moments in the fight where Yoel hurt Whitaker.
00:34:57.000
There was no moments in the fight where Whitaker really hurt Yoel.
00:35:14.000
But if you go round by round, watch that fight a bunch, I think...
00:35:22.000
But also, you go round by round, just stylistically, I had Whitaker winning 3-2, and I went, alright, let's say I gave UL when he fucked him up, I think it was the 4th or 5th.
00:35:32.000
I think it was both rounds, he had him in trouble.
00:35:34.000
But I gave one a 10-9 to UL, and if you give a 10-8, it would still be a draw.
00:35:41.000
It's just people have a hard time with decisions when the guy at the end of the fight is fucking the guy up.
00:35:45.000
Now obviously this is coming from someone who's a professional commentator, so I understand this is a ridiculous argument.
00:35:51.000
But the ridiculous argument is if we're gonna judge what a fight is.
00:35:55.000
We all know if you're watching a fight fight, right?
00:35:58.000
If you and I are in a fight and you're on top of me beating the shit out of me In the last few seconds when the cops come in.
00:36:07.000
If I ran around this room and kicked your legs for the first two minutes, and then you got on top of me and were beating the fuck out of me for the last 20 seconds when the cops came...
00:36:21.000
I understand, but this is a professional sport that's kind of a fight.
00:36:26.000
So in boxing, if I win the first eight rounds, right, and you're whooping my ass, 9, 10, 11, 12, those first eight, what do we do?
00:36:48.000
And the fact that he fought that fight, most of it, with a fucking broken hand.
00:37:07.000
Again, even if you give a 10-8, it should be a draw then.
00:37:14.000
It's a close round, but one guy drops him and has him hurt.
00:37:31.000
The legs go, the person falls, the guy gets on top, the guard's pounding him.
00:37:49.000
I really feel like this scorecard, this 10-point must system is silly.
00:37:59.000
But the numbers, like, why do we need 10 points?
00:38:07.000
You know, just think about all the different things.
00:38:19.000
But it's also predicated off styles, too, because what happens if, let's say I'm Brian Ortega.
00:38:25.000
And Max Hallway on the feet, jabbing, good distance control, and Brian really can't get it going, but then he pulls guard.
00:38:30.000
He pulls guard, and he's fucking throwing arm bar, triangle, leg lock, and Max is kind of defending, but he's in trouble.
00:38:42.000
They look at Max on top and go, well, when he was on the feet, he landed more jabs.
00:38:47.000
Yeah, there's moments where a regular guy is on his back and they're right.
00:38:52.000
Like a guy who doesn't have a good guard or a guy who just tries to hang on until the referee pulls him off.
00:38:58.000
But then there's some dudes who have their guard is like the scariest place to be.
00:39:10.000
You'd see that guy fight off of his back and be like, whoa!
00:39:16.000
Dudes didn't know what the fuck was happening and all of a sudden they're jacked and triangled.
00:39:33.000
Well, for Ortega, it's not his first time in world-class territory, right?
00:39:45.000
But the crazy thing, I thought, just as crazy, maybe more crazy, was the way he finished Cub.
00:39:55.000
And I know that Max finished Cub as well, but Cub was hurt in that fight.
00:40:11.000
When they went to the ground, Ortega locked up that darts at the end of the first round.
00:40:20.000
When they went to the ground and when he was cinching it up and then the buzzer went off, I was like, yeah, that fight's over.
00:40:34.000
The thing is, his jiu-jitsu is at such a fucking high level.
00:40:48.000
The way he sets up and it's so explosive and the angles he hits, you can't bring anyone in to duplicate that.
00:40:57.000
He's a guy who's not going to go in there and talk shit.
00:41:02.000
And his demeanor inside that octagon, even earlier in his UFC career, it was not going well for him.
00:41:10.000
He's finished all fighters, so he found some way to get it done.
00:41:13.000
And I think it comes from growing up in that rough background, man.
00:41:23.000
And I think that's huge in this Max Holloway fight because Max distant control is fucking second to none, man.
00:41:29.000
It's going to be tough for Brian to get in there.
00:41:31.000
I think once Brian can get an underhook, I think we're going to see him jump to half guard, something like that.
00:41:37.000
It's going to be interesting to see if Bryan can turn into a jiu-jitsu match.
00:41:40.000
But the thing about Bryan is he's so comfortable with his hands, man.
00:41:48.000
But Max Holloway, dude, when I saw the second fight with Aldo, the second fight with Aldo, there were some moments in that fight where I was like, Jesus.
00:41:56.000
This dude's on another level, but he was overwhelming Aldo like he went into that fight You know and the basically when they announced the this is where his phrase Where it started to hit me it is what it is.
00:42:10.000
That was his attitude to go fight an absolute future Hall of Famer who was thought to be the greatest featherweight of all time a guy who you know think about some of his Spectacular chaos of Chad Mendes and I mean he was a monster when he was young and How about when the Cub Swanson flying knee in WEC? Dude, he was a beast.
00:42:31.000
And for him to go into that fight and be like, it is what it is.
00:42:37.000
Well, how about when he was going to fight fucking Khabib?
00:42:44.000
Yeah, if the commission didn't pull him off the weight cut...
00:42:46.000
He would have fought Khabib on how many days notice?
00:42:54.000
I also think the reason why I love this fight and so good for the UFC, especially just for the both of them, is Max and Bryan are going to fight multiple times.
00:43:03.000
I think this is going to become a cool rivalry.
00:43:06.000
We're going to see him go from 45. Whoever wins this, I don't really care who.
00:43:12.000
Whoever wins, I think eventually they're both huge for the weight class.
00:43:16.000
They're going to go to 55. Even Max's team goes, he should be a 55er.
00:43:20.000
He's fucking huge for 45. Well, you think about how much weight he had to lose to get to 55. I know.
00:43:25.000
They pulled him off the weight cut to 55, which is crazy.
00:43:31.000
But I think, and this is great for fighters, man, like with Aldo.
00:43:49.000
So I think for Bryan and Max, they don't need to talk any shit.
00:43:57.000
And you're going to get a bunch of fights out of these guys, man.
00:44:03.000
I get goosebumps talking about those fucking two.
00:44:06.000
It's nice to see just any time you have a guy who's defending his title and you have a guy who you legitimately think could be a champion.
00:44:13.000
And you see, look, you look at the two of them.
00:44:16.000
Like, I look at that fight and I go, I don't know.
00:44:21.000
If Max makes one mistake, Brian capitalized on it.
00:44:26.000
What's interesting to me is when I first met Brian years ago and he was in the gym, remember he was mopping mats and just doing his thing and Henner would bring him on the road.
00:44:34.000
He even goes on the road now with Henner and they teach cops their tactical stuff and they do these seminars and he was like Henner's little guy.
00:44:41.000
And I always took him serious because jiu-jitsu was ridiculous and he would train with me and all this stuff.
00:44:53.000
When they told me, because I called him for a fight, and then they go, dude, UFC's coming, calling around.
00:45:05.000
And then Henry's like, dude, he wants to do it.
00:45:07.000
And then fucking, I was way off, that motherfucker.
00:45:16.000
He's so good at jiu-jitsu that he just took whatever that focus is that got him so good at jiu-jitsu and applied it to striking.
00:45:27.000
When he landed that uppercut on Frankie, and I was like, Jesus...
00:45:31.000
Like, Frankie's a hard guy to fucking hit clean.
00:45:37.000
Well, and even Gray Maynard, he came back and won that fight.
00:45:41.000
Draw in the first fight, KOs him in the second fight.
00:45:46.000
But the fact that Ortega took him out, I mean, some people say, well, maybe Frankie's at the end of his rope.
00:45:56.000
36, 34. Either way, though, it's Frankie Edgar.
00:46:00.000
And then he went on to beat Cub Swanson, what, four weeks later or some shit?
00:46:09.000
Dude, and then also on this card, you got DC fucking Stipe.
00:46:13.000
To me, it's like the first real, like we're in the super fight era.
00:46:16.000
To me, it's like the first real, real super fight.
00:46:21.000
That's a thick ass GSP. I guess that's super fight.
00:46:31.000
You know what I'm looking forward to almost as much?
00:46:42.000
I know everyone thinks it's going to be a first-round knockout and they're just going to throw Kasha in the wind.
00:46:45.000
I think Derek Lewis double-legs him, either in the first round or second round, and beats him via TKO. Really?
00:46:54.000
I mean, he's an explosive dude and he used to play football.
00:46:57.000
See, I think people are making a mistake going, oh, Derek's just going to go on there, Francis is going to go on there, fucking plant their feet and just fucking chuck the bombs.
00:47:10.000
If he's smart, I just, I think what I would do if I was them and what Derek and his background and Francis working on stuff, I think Derek's going to shoot.
00:47:20.000
The crowd's gonna boo, but Derrick's gonna shoot, and then his ground pound is fucking nasty.
00:47:24.000
If it's a good crowd, a crowd that understands the danger of Francis on his back, and Derrick on top, Derrick with big KO power, stop Travis Brown, I bet they might be thinking, oh shit, this is gonna get crazy.
00:47:35.000
Because it's not like if Derrick takes you down, he's just gonna hold on to you.
00:47:40.000
He's gonna punch you with the right in the fucking face.
00:47:42.000
That Travis Brown TKO, or a KO rather, was ruthless.
00:47:57.000
The thing about getting to him is you're running into hammers.
00:48:03.000
You gotta stay back and then the cardio gets to him.
00:48:06.000
We only saw him tired once, but it was a big once.
00:48:09.000
We've only seen him out of the first round once, right?
00:48:16.000
I get friends with a lot of shit, but that's fucking Stipe.
00:48:21.000
Yeah, I mean, you have to look at him, his accomplishments.
00:48:24.000
You look at the guys that he stopped and the guys he defended his title.
00:48:33.000
The only reason why Stipe doesn't get enough credit as he should is because all of these guys are a step past their prime, right?
00:48:44.000
To me, what's more impressive, when Kane beat JDS, that was prime JDS who was a motherfucker.
00:48:51.000
And Kane put his fucking head right in the middle of his chest and did work after getting knocked out.
00:48:57.000
In the first round on Fox in the biggest fight in MMA history.
00:49:02.000
To me, that's a little more impressive than when Stipe beat JDS. That's JDS after...
00:49:15.000
What's almost as impressive is surviving that first round against Francis.
00:49:20.000
There's not a lot of guys that would have survived that round the way Stipe did.
00:49:26.000
He ate that fucking punch from Anthony Rumble Johnson.
00:49:39.000
See, the thing about Francis, I'm very curious to see what he looks like.
00:49:43.000
I'm very curious to see what he looks like in this next fight.
00:49:47.000
We're going to find a lot about whether or not he's able to correct mistakes, whether his conditioning is just one of those things with all that fast twitch muscle fiber, whether he's not going to be able to go five rounds hard.
00:49:56.000
I don't think he's going to turn into fucking Nate Diaz or something like that.
00:50:02.000
The way he can get better is not using all his energy on power punches.
00:50:08.000
But with Derek Lewis, he also peddled to the metal and hits hard as fuck, too.
00:50:16.000
That Travis Brown fight, he was in serious fucking trouble, man.
00:50:24.000
I mean, that guy has been in some crazy-ass fucking fights.
00:50:39.000
I think the craziest thing on the card to me is how many people are riding off DC. He's the underdog against Stipe.
00:50:48.000
Yeah, I know you hate picks, but when I break down the fight, I look at what that terrible picture makes Stipe look super small and fucking DC look giant.
00:51:08.000
Yeah, one says 76 inches and one says 71 inches.
00:51:12.000
The reach, the height, because DC's dealt with that his entire career.
00:51:15.000
Gustafin, Jon Jones, those guys had even bigger reaches.
00:51:18.000
I think also one thing to take into consideration is Stipe doesn't throw a lot of kicks.
00:51:26.000
And, you know, DC is also going to be able to get under him easier than any guy he's ever fought before.
00:51:54.000
But the Henderson fight was the most impressive to me.
00:51:56.000
Because Henderson, even though he's smaller than DC, he's a fucking stud.
00:52:06.000
Some people discredit DC a little bit when they go, when he won the Grand Prix in Strikeforce, that was a different time.
00:52:12.000
Those heavyweights were older and the games evolved.
00:52:16.000
While I look at Stipe, I'm like, heavyweights haven't really evolved that much, man.
00:52:20.000
You don't see a guy throwing a lot of kicks and mixing up wrestling and jiu-jitsu.
00:52:23.000
You look at Stipe's game, it's boxing or wrestling.
00:52:27.000
That's very similar to what DC's used to beating.
00:52:30.000
So the times when he's in trouble is a guy like Jon Jones who fucking mixes up and he's a fucking nightmare.
00:52:39.000
When DC goes in a fight and you're just boxing or wrestling, the reason why DC's going to go down as one of the greatest of all time is his mental game, bro.
00:52:57.000
Who else does it the way John does, where they're really good at everything?
00:53:01.000
They win by submission, they win by knockout, they win by, you know...
00:53:10.000
Because even Kane, Kane would do Muay Thai, and Kane would for sure wrestle in ground and pound, but he never really submitted anybody.
00:53:22.000
Get you exhausted to the point where you never even believed you could be that hard.
00:53:28.000
Which DC has been training with Kane for this fight.
00:53:36.000
So when I look at that, I go, alright, Kane's style is almost identical to fucking Stipe's, but Stipe has a little more power.
00:53:43.000
As far as cardio, wrestling, Kane's better at those things, man.
00:53:47.000
Well, Kane was better than anybody that ever lived for like two years.
00:53:56.000
But when you look at what he was able to do with real fucking tough guys, just break them down.
00:54:06.000
But, you know, he's had shoulder surgery, back surgery, knee surgery.
00:54:10.000
I mean, after a while, everything was just given out because of the force of his will and his workouts are so fucking tough.
00:54:17.000
Those guys at AKA, you know, like Dana was giving them a hard time at one point in time saying something about, you know, that they're always getting hurt.
00:54:29.000
To get a guy that's got that kind of mind, he's used to being in that horrible misery of trying to break someone.
00:54:40.000
And remember, DC, before he went there, he trained with us in Denver.
00:54:45.000
You know, Lofty's wrestling was ridiculous, but he moved there, and then he just followed suit.
00:54:50.000
Then you got John Fitch, you got Koscheck, you got fucking Khabib.
00:54:56.000
When Rockhold gets people on the ground, smashes him.
00:54:59.000
When he got Weidman on the ground, Weidman was stuck under a building.
00:55:04.000
You look at him and you go, oh, David Branch, same thing.
00:55:07.000
Gets you down and his fucking top game is just murderous.
00:55:15.000
I have friends who watch him train down in Florida and they were just saying his jiu-jitsu.
00:55:30.000
He's got like long leverage, but he's also got physical strength.
00:55:33.000
He was supposed to fight Gustvin until he hurt his leg.
00:55:47.000
So you think Stipe and DC goes to DC by decision?
00:55:56.000
I just think hopefully more people appreciate DC after this.
00:56:04.000
As long as DC can avoid that big power punch early on, he's gonna be fine.
00:56:10.000
Well, I definitely think he's really smart, but I also think that Stipe is a really good striker.
00:56:15.000
And he's a bigger guy, and he's got a long reach, and he's probably one of the best heavyweight strikers that DC's ever fought.
00:56:22.000
He's got real one-punch knockout power at heavyweight.
00:56:29.000
He'll stand here like this and drop one in on you.
00:56:39.000
He doesn't throw a lot of kicks, but it doesn't mean he can't.
00:56:44.000
If he thinks that's part of the strategy and he wants to throw head kicks.
00:56:51.000
It's the difference between kicking and practicing and pulling off against a world-class guy like DC. But DC has tendencies, man.
00:56:57.000
That's why Jon Jones goes, I'm going to knock him out by head kick.
00:57:07.000
Did John fake a right hand and then throw that left high kick?
00:57:12.000
He was throwing to the body, throwing the body, yeah, and then threw it out, and then you see DC go over and then just whack!
00:57:19.000
Let's see if you can find that clip of John Jones KOing DC. Here it is.
00:58:00.000
He took a couple extra shots there that he didn't need to take.
00:58:08.000
If you're Scrooge McDuck and you're sitting down and you're looking at the UFC roadmap, you're like, we love Stipe.
00:58:17.000
But if they could plan it like you're fucking Vince McMahon in WWE, you want DC to win, and then John to come back, and at heavyweight, you have DC-John Jones fighting for a world title at heavyweight.
00:58:33.000
Q-Q-Q-Q! Ratings, ratings, ratings, ratings, ratings, ratings.
00:58:42.000
Another one is, what if John's suspension lasts longer than we think?
00:58:46.000
We're assuming that John's going to get a suspension and he's going to be able to come back fairly soon.
00:58:53.000
Well, what if Brock comes in and Brock fights the winner of DC and Stipe?
00:59:13.000
The question is, can he do it clean at his age?
00:59:24.000
I think if the UFC wants to make that paper, you've got to tell USADA to scram.
00:59:41.000
You're crazy if you think USADA is all clean like the U.S. government or some shit.
00:59:46.000
First of all, you think the U.S. government is clean?
00:59:57.000
If I'm Dana, I'm like, open up your glove compartment box.
01:00:00.000
You keep that, and you keep your greasy mouth shut while these boys come over and punch each other in the face.
01:00:27.000
I bet there's a countdown in Dana's office just every day.
01:00:37.000
The whole thing is kind of crazy that it's self-imposed.
01:00:59.000
You have to smash a few eggs to make an omelet, man.
01:01:02.000
But it's a great success story because those guys were down $40-plus million in the hole when The Ultimate Fighter took off.
01:01:20.000
If you lost a couple hundred grand, you would survive, but you'd be like, shit.
01:01:29.000
Especially when I get to my boy to run, and it's fucking up, you know what I'm saying?
01:01:37.000
Well, if I'm a billionaire, I'm going to be like...
01:01:48.000
You've got to think of how many different businesses they're running at the same time, though.
01:02:33.000
The Comedy Cellar is supposed to be really good.
01:02:52.000
But I'm saying as far as the crowds, usually, if it's not a UFC crowd...
01:02:57.000
Well, there's so many things to do, first of all.
01:03:03.000
I could be watching Blue Man Group fucking rolling my ass off.
01:03:10.000
Have you ever been to one of those Cirque du Soleil's?
01:03:13.000
Have you been to Love, the one at the MGM? Nope, but I've been to Zumanity with a friend and some drugs, and it was one of the best times ever.
01:03:23.000
How about when Disney uses those robot flipper things to do a Cirque du Soleil show?
01:03:31.000
I saw this article about Disney's making acrobatic robots.
01:03:38.000
Dude, these robots flip through the air and land and jump into holes and shit.
01:03:45.000
These robots that Disney's making, they're animatronic robots, but here's what's fucked up about it.
01:03:50.000
What's to stop someone from using these and making like a Super Warrior with the same technology?
01:03:58.000
These motherfuckers, I know what they're doing.
01:04:04.000
Look at it swing, and look at it let go, and tuck, and jump into a hole.
01:04:09.000
Yo, dude, that's gonna be a killer robot that we send overseas to fight battles.
01:04:21.000
They're going to have this at the Pixar parade or some shit for all the kids?
01:04:24.000
I think they're going to do this for movies, for shit like that, so that you don't have to risk the lives.
01:04:41.000
He doesn't really do too much CGI face on that.
01:04:47.000
They're not even going to need people for voices.
01:04:49.000
Half of that movie, Logan, the Wolverine movie, he wasn't there.
01:04:54.000
There's a video you can see where they show you how they CGI'd everything.
01:05:03.000
If you're a Wolverine fan, I was like, God damn, bro.
01:05:11.000
Professor X is like in some weird fucking hut dying and it's hot out.
01:05:25.000
Yeah, Vegas is weird is what we're getting at and Disney's trying to take over the world.
01:05:28.000
Disney's about to work with DARPA. That's what's going on, son.
01:05:57.000
So if you can make a robot do all that stuff, then you could easily just put his face on there.
01:06:22.000
In this one, he doesn't look as jacked as he did in like the earlier ones.
01:06:29.000
Because if his body can recuperate from anything, why the fuck is he aging?
01:06:35.000
Where he's losing some of his muscle, but he's still throwing people through the air like they're ragdolls.
01:06:39.000
He gets shot and recovers right away, but his fucking joints hurt?
01:06:52.000
How about they come out with another fucking Spider-Man?
01:06:57.000
When Peter Parker starts getting big, they go, yeah, well, guess what?
01:07:03.000
They keep telling the same story over and over again with subtle differences.
01:07:16.000
They started off with that Australian dude from Chopper.
01:07:39.000
I believe he really understands genetics, you know?
01:08:02.000
Oh, when Jim Carrey was the Riddler and then Tommy Lee Jones was Two-Face.
01:08:08.000
When they were like, oh, we need to make this more real.
01:08:14.000
Jim Carrey was the Riddler when who was Batman?
01:08:25.000
Do you know Christian Bale was Batman only like six months after he was the machinist?
01:08:36.000
He was eating like a can of tuna and an apple a day.
01:08:40.000
You know what kind of willpower you have to have to let your body literally rot away to this skinny thing for a movie?
01:08:48.000
Think how much you love the craft of acting to do that.
01:08:54.000
Everybody's trying to be the Joker these days, though.
01:09:10.000
The equilibrium, it said, there's another picture here.
01:09:12.000
Dude, you're telling me that's not photoshopped at all on the left?
01:09:20.000
I mean, you're putting unbelievable stress on your organs.
01:09:34.000
They'll throw you for a loop, like Chris Hemsworth.
01:09:37.000
But Jackman, like as an actor, like Christian Bale, he does some stuff.
01:09:45.000
But Christian Bale does some stuff like in American Psycho.
01:10:00.000
185, 121, 190, 135, 190, 145. Him in Reign of Fire, he is bodied the fuck up.
01:10:07.000
Yeah, so he got down skinny again to play Mickey Ward's brother.
01:10:13.000
Yeah, I forget Mickey Ward's brother, but his brother fought Sugar Ray Leonard.
01:10:22.000
That dragon movie was dope for one of them silly dumb movies.
01:10:31.000
Wasn't he in a dragon movie with Matthew McConaughey?
01:10:46.000
Yeah, Matthew McConaughey's jacked in that movie.
01:10:50.000
See, he got super skinny for Dallas Buyers Club when he had AIDS. Yeah, he did it too.
01:10:54.000
See if you get a picture of Matthew McConaughey jacked.
01:11:05.000
See, right there in that picture where he's got a vest on?
01:11:18.000
It's silly, you know, that these dragons fuck everybody up and, you know.
01:11:22.000
Dude, remember how bad I used to hate on dragons until I watched Game of Thrones?
01:11:26.000
I would clown on all you guys for watching dragons.
01:11:30.000
That dragon burns, spoiler alert, you fucks, been out for nine years.
01:11:38.000
I was in the middle of my living room, slow clapping.
01:11:48.000
It ends and his eye just goes, and it's a White Walker eye.
01:11:50.000
Everybody who works on that show, listen to me.
01:11:55.000
You're never gonna do anything better than that.
01:12:12.000
I feel like for me to get that skinny and thin, I would have to go on some...
01:12:15.000
I'd have to get some role like Dallas Buyers Club.
01:12:28.000
But wouldn't you do all the steroids to play these roles?
01:12:33.000
I'm like, yeah, yeah, all right, let me go down to Gold's Gym, see what I can do.
01:12:38.000
You'd have to go on the carnivore diet, drop your body fat down.
01:12:48.000
You'd want to have that scene where you're putting on your fucking outfit, and you're just fucking...
01:12:52.000
Oh, I'd be like, we need more scenes where I'm shirtless.
01:13:02.000
Blade 3. That's Ryan Reynolds in Blade 3. But who's that guy?
01:13:20.000
They say that because they're trying to make you feel better.
01:13:25.000
I like to grab your back and feel a little fat.
01:13:35.000
I mean, I definitely don't want his dick in my mouth.
01:13:45.000
I like a man who's just relaxed like me and doesn't want to do much.
01:13:59.000
Dude, both of us are fucking Adele compared to that guy.
01:14:08.000
You're like one of them girls that get planes about chicks with little waist and big tits.
01:14:12.000
Oh no, I appreciate men more than people think I'm gay.
01:14:16.000
I have body image issues because of these women that are unattainable.
01:14:19.000
They have these unattainable bodies and it's fucked up.
01:14:30.000
She's like, ugh, I just wish she had a real girlfriend, like a real woman.
01:14:37.000
It's a typical pretty girl with blonde hair and a nice body.
01:14:42.000
Like, you know, why doesn't he have a real girlfriend?
01:14:49.000
You're hating on someone because they're attracted?
01:14:52.000
Why would you assume that she's not super nice and really friendly and really smart?
01:14:58.000
Because you're just looking at her and deciding that you're hating.
01:15:09.000
This is as I've gotten older and wiser, even when I meet dumb people.
01:15:14.000
I'm like, how much of it is really their fault?
01:15:18.000
Or maybe they just got a bad roll of the dice with life and with genetics and the whole ball of wax.
01:15:23.000
Sometimes a bad roll of the dice is you're genetically gifted if you're a girl or a guy and you look super pretty and things come easy to you and you never have to read a book or get balls deep into a sport or something like that.
01:15:37.000
Dude, there's a curse to that because then things get easy.
01:15:39.000
Like, you want your daughters, you don't want to be tens.
01:15:45.000
Where, like, there's certain guys' types, but they still got to educate themselves.
01:15:50.000
You know, like, you don't want to blow out asses and big titties.
01:16:15.000
The problem with some 10s that go to 8s can't handle it.
01:16:20.000
Well, even when they're eights, they're still hot, but in their mind...
01:16:23.000
Yeah, but in their mind, they're not anymore, and they get really freaked out by it.
01:16:33.000
You drive one now, you're like, what the fuck is going on here?
01:16:40.000
But meanwhile, they're worth like a million dollars or something stupid.
01:16:51.000
In like 2015, she bought like one that was the one from Magnum PI. Oh, the 364?
01:17:01.000
It's a cool little car, but it was just always braking.
01:17:04.000
You know, those things, they're just not gonna...
01:17:25.000
You're fucking hustling your ass up, but you have all the cars.
01:17:37.000
Dude, get an 8 Series with that V12. Maybe, but I'm talking about old cars.
01:17:51.000
That's where I draw the line, when the lights go up.
01:17:54.000
Tess Rosa of the BMW. You liked the 95.3 series?
01:18:02.000
I liked the ones with the big wing in the back.
01:18:08.000
You go near those cars today, they don't make anything that small anymore.
01:18:22.000
Google Silver E46 BMW. You thinking about getting one of those?
01:18:32.000
Are you going to buy it to run into a wall or something?
01:18:37.000
That's not a 95. Yes, it's 2005. What I like about that, yeah.
01:18:47.000
That's an M3. That's exactly what it looks like.
01:18:54.000
They just juice the shit out of the engine and change the suspension and the thing about it It's a light small car that like moves.
01:19:02.000
Well, I think that car probably only weighs about 3,000 pounds like Google how much does a 2005 BMW M3 where those old Porsches are like fuck to though, man Just Google how much does it weigh?
01:19:21.000
I mean, we could go buy 10 of these right now, Joe.
01:19:26.000
So that's pretty light in comparison to like a new one.
01:19:30.000
I bet the new ones are 300 or 400 pounds heavier than that.
01:19:39.000
But they take these and they put crazy engines in them and juice them up because it's a smaller car.
01:19:45.000
That's one of the original cars I remember kids just fucking jacking up with a big exhaust on.
01:19:52.000
Do you ever see a kid that spends so much money on a really shitty Accord and puts crazy...
01:19:56.000
I'm like, bro, just because they sell it at Pep Boys doesn't mean you have to put it on the goddamn car.
01:20:00.000
Why do you have all that shit all over the car?
01:20:14.000
Well, I guess it's cooler than the car as it is.
01:20:36.000
They can make those things fairly fast, though, can't they?
01:20:43.000
What is that Ford Focus GT? Is that that little tiny car that's supposed to go fast as fuck?
01:21:15.000
Dude, you brought up 95 BMWs, Ford Focuses, and Civics.
01:21:20.000
Well, you know, man, you know I have that white car, the white 911 RS? Fuck yeah.
01:21:39.000
It's like the difference between a dog and a cheetah.
01:21:44.000
Like, one of them is like, dogs run pretty good.
01:21:48.000
But then you get to cheat and you're like, Jesus.
01:21:53.000
But what if you got a 911T? How light's a 911T and then send it to Sharkworth just to blow the ass out the front?
01:22:04.000
Yeah, I'm sure they could do something like that.
01:22:06.000
Yeah, because you know they don't have handles.
01:22:21.000
Yeah, so it's GT3 without the crazy wing, and it just...
01:22:24.000
Because most of the people are not taking them on a track.
01:22:30.000
So the GT... 3200. Is this the GT3 or this the T? That's the T. 3200. That's pretty goddamn light.
01:22:49.000
Yeah, that's a 370. That's not even the S engine.
01:22:57.000
I bet that's just as light, but that's got like 500 horsepower.
01:23:05.000
Well, you have that GTS, which is a very fast car, too.
01:23:09.000
There was a big article about one of those recently.
01:23:12.000
People, they say it's one of the best, like, daily driver's portals ever made.
01:23:31.000
It's one of the more interesting things about cars is just the physical shapes.
01:23:43.000
They do little subtle changes to the back and the exhaust.
01:23:46.000
Yeah, they just keep kind of tweaking it a little bit, but they keep that shape.
01:23:50.000
Like, every 911 looks like a 911. Like, if you look at a 2019 Mustang, and then you look at a 1965 Mustang, you're like, how do I know this is the same thing?
01:24:03.000
But you could have a 911 next to, like, you could have that 964 that's like a 91 next to a 2019, and you can go, oh, I see.
01:24:14.000
That's the only car that I can think of like that.
01:24:16.000
Because old Ferraris don't look like new Ferraris at all.
01:24:20.000
I guess the new Challengers look like a little bit like the old Challenger.
01:24:45.000
I think that thing's got 520. And they're so light and just designed for track.
01:24:52.000
You think you're a dickhead for driving around town?
01:24:56.000
You have a lime green car that says GT3RS on it.
01:24:59.000
Dude, mine says GTS and it's fucking hot orange.
01:25:02.000
You should only wear golf club shirts from exclusive golf clubs that no one could join.
01:25:13.000
Just beating the shit out of everyone on the road.
01:25:15.000
You should smell like, what's that, what is it called when you pass down money to your kids?
01:25:28.000
All the handicaps you get in life, one of the biggest handicaps you get is a trust fund.
01:25:33.000
There's something that happens to kids, at least most of the ones that I've ever heard of.
01:25:37.000
Not just security, but a large income just given to them by their parents.
01:25:44.000
It's like they're 400% more likely to die before the age of 40 when they have that much money.
01:25:52.000
I know a couple people that have had one of those deals.
01:26:06.000
Like if you're an egg and you still got that gooey stuff on top, it's like it's not quite done.
01:26:11.000
Rich kids are counting on inheritance to pay for retirement.
01:26:17.000
Well-off young people say they need money from relatives and friends to guarantee their golden years stay golden.
01:26:32.000
Oh, 63% of affluent children between the ages of 18 and 22 say financial stability retirement will depend on inheriting money.
01:26:40.000
You know, it's just, that's one of the things that Tim Kennedy said when he was on the podcast.
01:26:45.000
He said, hard times make hard men, hard men make easy times, easy times make soft men.
01:26:57.000
For the girls, you think they're going to be balls deep in martial arts so they're like in ninth grade?
01:27:02.000
I think you've got to get a certain amount of actual hard work in your life.
01:27:08.000
I think martial arts are going to do that for them.
01:27:11.000
There's something to valuing goals and to working towards things and then being in difficult situations.
01:27:24.000
But I think martial arts in particular, it's more personal.
01:27:28.000
Like when someone strangles you, when someone gets your back and then sinks that fucking body triangle on you and you're fighting it off and then they get you and you have to tap, that's very personal.
01:27:37.000
Right, but most people don't deal with those kind of things in life.
01:27:40.000
I think the experience of dealing with those things in life is very valuable because you can relax more.
01:27:52.000
Bad things in terms of, like, bad defeats, losses, getting smushed, having to tap.
01:27:59.000
Like, how many times have you ever rolled with a guy that never rolled before?
01:28:02.000
And the moment you start rolling with him, you get him on his back, and they start hyperventilating, and they're panicking.
01:28:06.000
They panic, because they've never been there before.
01:28:08.000
Professional football players, basketball players I've rolled with, and they get down, they're like, oh, shit.
01:28:18.000
My only problem with martial arts, if you're just going to go down that road, is when you're in that dojo where the fuck you're doing the martial arts, when they leave, they know that not many people have seen it.
01:28:28.000
If you and I are rolling and we don't know each other and you tap me out, I leave there.
01:28:34.000
When you're in professional sports and we're playing basketball or football and the game's on the line and I get embarrassed because I dropped the ball or I whiffed and struck out and the entire audience sees it and I have to deal with that and then come back from it.
01:28:46.000
And be like, alright, I can deal with this, man.
01:28:55.000
To me, that builds a little something different.
01:29:01.000
Big part of life is being able to work with other people.
01:29:06.000
But also facing that adversity and knowing, because if you tap me out, when I go to school, no one knows that.
01:29:13.000
When my class knows I threw an interception, like, fuck, shopped through that interception, man.
01:29:33.000
Dude, people were walking around the neighborhood while that was like fucking kicking the snow and angry.
01:29:42.000
It was like there was reports of it all over Boston that people would just slam.
01:29:46.000
They would just slam the car, the front door rather, and just walk out into the street.
01:29:51.000
Everybody out there smoking, looking at each other like, how the fuck did he drop that ball?
01:30:00.000
I think sports are definitely great for kids, for anybody developing.
01:30:07.000
The problem with people is they get nervous about trying new things or doing things.
01:30:13.000
And I think one of the things that gets you over nerves is having done difficult shit before.
01:30:18.000
And one of the things about jujitsu is that that's such a claustrophobic feeling.
01:30:22.000
When you're locked up in a triangle, and you're just trying to get a hand in there to protect you, and you're feeling the squeeze, and you're like, fuck, I might have to tap, and you make your way out of it.
01:30:34.000
Being able to do that in your life, knowing I've been in a bad spot before, knowing someone's been on top of me before and I didn't think I'd get up, I think it's a very valuable thing for people to experience.
01:30:47.000
And I think it's a good thing for people to learn.
01:30:50.000
If you could start out as a white belt and just deal with that stuff that you get up until blue belt and purple belt, where you start developing some skills and putting some taps down, if you You can get through that, man.
01:31:02.000
A guy who can get to purple belt or a girl who can get to black belt or brown belt, those people, that man, that woman that can get that far, they can do a lot of shit.
01:31:14.000
I think giving your kids that opportunity is a massive thing.
01:31:20.000
And I know your kid's going to learn how to fight.
01:31:22.000
How the fuck is your kid not going to learn how to fight?
01:31:26.000
Because I watch a lot of fights, so when I come in the house, Right when I get home today, because he sees all the fighters, boxers, and UFC guys, they fight with their shirts off.
01:31:55.000
But, like, you seen Eddie Bravo's kid do martial arts?
01:32:02.000
Henner just posted, he's on a teddy bear doing, like, arm bars.
01:32:07.000
He posts videos of drills he does with his kid.
01:32:15.000
You know what kind of jujitsu Eddie Bravo's kid's gonna have?
01:32:46.000
I think Henner, too, this is like his biggest pupil in terms of jujitsu.
01:32:51.000
I mean, obviously, Ronda Rousey was his most famous pupil.
01:33:12.000
Couldn't afford it, so Henner took him under his wing.
01:33:15.000
And now he's the number one featherweight in the world, not named Max Holloway.
01:33:34.000
I've had a lot of coaches since I was a very young kid, and I've never had anyone as far as a better coach than Henner Gracie.
01:33:46.000
Yeah, but there's a lot of those guys from the source, but they're not Henner.
01:33:51.000
And all those guys are great, but as far as egos and just being like, you can hang out with Henner anywhere.
01:34:25.000
I don't know the details on that, but I know Henner and Hiran are doing their own thing now, and they're killing it.
01:34:31.000
Yeah, dude, it's very lucrative in Southern California.
01:34:36.000
Especially if you're, I mean, Henner and Hiran.
01:34:39.000
But as far as business mind, too, that's what makes Henner so special.
01:34:48.000
Well, listen, for someone who lives in the middle of the country, that's a great thing.
01:34:51.000
I mean, it's not as good as being instructed by him.
01:34:54.000
But if you live in the middle of the country and you don't have access to other instruction, that is a great thing.
01:34:59.000
Snowed in Wyoming or some shit and you can go online.
01:35:24.000
I'm wearing my fur for PETA. It sounds like a legit place.
01:35:47.000
I'm just saying, if you're not humans, you can hunt fucking elk or...
01:35:51.000
Yeah, a lot of those guys who used to hunt humans become hunters.
01:35:57.000
They also have, you know, they have a special skill set.
01:36:32.000
Like a fucking boss businessman type character.
01:37:04.000
Wasn't he the guy that was the Bellator champion at one point in time?
01:37:24.000
He was either World Series of Fighting champion.
01:37:58.000
Are you sure you're not talking about Darren Till?
01:38:16.000
Ivano reportedly stabbed in the heart, clinging to life support.
01:38:20.000
Yeah, so this was like 2011. What year was this?
01:38:25.000
It's so good with shit that I shouldn't even know.
01:38:32.000
So he fought for Bellator, and then he went over to World Series, and now he's in the UFC. And his first fight is Junior Dos Santos.
01:38:41.000
No, I feel like he's fought already in the UFC. No way.
01:38:48.000
I must be thinking about the World Series of fighting.
01:38:59.000
And this is junior that also had a USADA scare.
01:39:01.000
Something happened with him, but then they let him off the hook, right?
01:39:04.000
To me, that's the problem with USADA is they go, this guy flagged, but then if they get proven innocent, there's no big write-up, there's no big announcement.
01:39:18.000
Maybe it was, wasn't it diuretic or something like that?
01:39:35.000
It depends what you're at, but 6-12 months, right?
01:39:38.000
Right, but if you're going to take a diuretic, is it the same as taking juice?
01:39:41.000
Like if you took a steroid, you get longer, right?
01:39:47.000
It's almost like what they say about the Tour de France.
01:39:51.000
Notice how I pronounce it like Brian Callen would?
01:39:55.000
They say that it's healthier, actually, to do that with drugs than it's to do without drugs.
01:39:59.000
It's so brutal on your body that when they take— Don't you think fighting's the same way?
01:40:08.000
But I don't want to—I wouldn't want everybody to say they have to be on it.
01:40:14.000
Maybe we shouldn't do it if you have to do that.
01:40:16.000
Junior Dos Santos admits he's still scared of USADA. I won't say it doesn't bother me.
01:40:34.000
It was months, it said, and then that he hasn't fought since then.
01:40:39.000
It's like if a girl accused you of sexual assault, right off the bat, if that goes on Twitter, you're assumed guilty.
01:40:44.000
With these guys, it's, oh, he's a drug user, but then I had no idea he was...
01:40:51.000
I saw the announcement that they were making that fight.
01:40:56.000
He was supposed to fight someone else, and it got rescheduled, I believe.
01:41:07.000
The one thing I wish the UFC would do better, even if this isn't the UFC, but it'd be great if they did, is announce when a guy is vindicated, when he's good to go.
01:41:14.000
I need a fucking celebration because it's a birthday, so they're good to go.
01:41:20.000
So many guys retire, let's do something for them.
01:41:23.000
A guy like Rashad Evans, UFC Hall of Famer, one of the best guys to ever do it.
01:41:42.000
Not for everyone, but for a guy like Rashad, we need something.
01:41:46.000
Won the Ultimate Fighter, won the light heavyweight title.
01:41:49.000
Think of his rivalries with fucking John Jones, Quentin Rampage Jackson, he's being two tough fighters to ever fight.
01:42:00.000
Fighters, people think about you as your fights you have late in your career.
01:42:04.000
They forget the crazy fights that he had earlier in his career.
01:42:08.000
See, I think the ones that he was doing these past, whatever, four or five, which were tough to watch.
01:42:17.000
And there's something that happens to fighters or to human beings when they don't want to do it anymore.
01:42:26.000
But if you don't want to do it anymore and you're a printer, it's not like if you don't want to do it anymore and you're a fighter.
01:42:32.000
So if you don't want to do it and you're a fighter and you kind of half-ass it and you're in there with a guy...
01:42:37.000
You know, like Glover Teixeira, like Anthony Smith.
01:42:41.000
I mean, he's in there against dangerous guys that are trying to kill him.
01:42:51.000
But it's not a sad thing because, you know, like that ridiculous safety for the Seahawks retiring because they had some neck issues.
01:43:16.000
And then remember this fight after that with Sean Salmon?
01:43:20.000
And Dana was giving him a stink eye because the fight was boring.
01:43:34.000
He was so special to me in my career because he was like in our camp and he was like the guy when he won the belt.
01:43:40.000
I remember he was training with us, won the belt and came back.
01:43:42.000
And it was the first time where he would speak truth to us because at the time I had a girlfriend.
01:43:47.000
I didn't want to leave and go to training camp and all this stuff.
01:43:51.000
I tell him, he's like, I'm telling you, it's going to be different, man.
01:44:00.000
I remember when he won the belt, he was sitting down, he came back like a week after training, and I go, dude, fucking crazy.
01:44:13.000
He goes, it's cool, and you want this goal, and you achieved it, and I have the belt.
01:44:18.000
He goes, I thought I'd feel completely different.
01:44:31.000
Dude, there was a time for a couple of years where Machida was just putting on people, man.
01:45:21.000
I'd almost rather have you celebrate my knockout.
01:45:30.000
And then bowed to him while his fucking eyes rolled back.
01:45:34.000
And then, you know, I guess the UFC wanted to work with him a little bit, but he just went to Bellator because he goes, you saw it as way too strict, man.
01:45:50.000
What's interesting is Vitor always would talk about standing square.
01:45:56.000
When I first started trading at Carlson Gracies, In 1996. Old school.
01:46:31.000
And remember before this, he beat Andrews, who's a big up-and-coming football player in Alabama.
01:46:44.000
Well, I think he sent his brother over there to test the waters.
01:46:47.000
Like, tell me how many times they make you pee.
01:47:00.000
The other scary thing about Bellator is that Dazon, Dazon, Dazon, or whatever the fuck they're going to call it, is giving them, they gave them a nine-figure deal.
01:47:20.000
So now Bellator, you remember how they had tape delays?
01:47:32.000
Their first welterweight big fight is going to be free.
01:47:36.000
Everybody wins in Bellator deal with days into stream live events.
01:47:41.000
Okay, they got Gegard, who his people just contacted me.
01:47:48.000
Yep, so they got Gegard, they got Roy McDonald, two absolute world-class fighters.
01:47:52.000
Absolute world-class, top of the food chain, maybe the best 185 and the best 170 in the world, certainly in the argument, right?
01:47:59.000
Then, you know, look, Ryan Bader's never looked better.
01:48:05.000
He may not ever beat Jon Jones, but he's never looked better.
01:48:16.000
Maybe him going up to heavyweight would be better for him.
01:48:20.000
Maybe he could fight more, especially as an older guy in his 30s.
01:48:26.000
Well, he's really gotten better and better and better.
01:48:31.000
Then, of course, you got Paul Daley, one of the most exciting motherfuckers in any weight division, who's got a nuclear missile for a left hand.
01:48:41.000
Well, Paul Bailey's last fight with Fitch was brutal, man.
01:48:52.000
And why would you diminish Daley in terms of marketability after the Larkin fight?
01:48:57.000
So he KOs Larkin, who Larkin always felt like was a dark horse at 170. Especially after he fucked up Neil Magny.
01:49:10.000
He's got that oblique kick that he does to the body.
01:49:14.000
He came over there, you know, he's fighting with Lima.
01:49:16.000
Lima's a motherfucker, so he struggled with him.
01:49:27.000
That dude has got something crazy in his left hand.
01:49:29.000
But you know they're doing Paul Daly, Michael Vennon Page next.
01:49:33.000
Paul Daly signs new Bellator contract, accepts Joe Shilling's call-out!
01:49:39.000
Joe Shilling versus Paul Daly in MMA. Yes, Joe Shilling.
01:49:49.000
If it was a kickboxing match, I'd be more excited.
01:49:51.000
But do you think Paul Dale's going to try to take him down after all the shit he talks about guys taking him down?
01:49:58.000
I'd rather see Joe Schilling fight in kickboxing.
01:50:08.000
The problem that Joe's been having is they don't give him enough money in kickboxing.
01:50:11.000
Bellator kickboxing even, it's just not materializing.
01:50:19.000
He was in glory, and then he came over to Bellator a couple years ago, and he's fought well.
01:50:26.000
But for whatever reason, Bellator kickboxing just does not have the appeal.
01:50:37.000
If boxing is popular, how is kickboxing not popular?
01:51:02.000
I did a Glory Fight Companion with Joe Schilling and who else did it?
01:51:24.000
I'm actually bummed out that Lion Fight is not on AXS TV anymore.
01:51:28.000
They lost their deal with AXS TV. Well, if you had done Fight Companions for Lion Fight, it'd probably still be around.
01:51:50.000
But you would shut fucking down for, you know...
01:52:48.000
You know, Frank Mir, I really appreciate that guy.
01:52:50.000
I appreciate the way he thinks and talks about fighting, too.
01:52:52.000
And one of the things he said is, like, remember Fedor hip-tossed him, slammed him on his back, and he said he just got up and just wanted to swing at him.
01:53:16.000
He gets you into his groove and then he cracks you with something.
01:53:20.000
But I think that I was curious to see how that fight was taking place.
01:53:24.000
Because in the beginning, Frank was catching him.
01:53:32.000
I haven't felt that kind of nerves and stuff going into a fight in a long time.
01:53:42.000
You know Josh Barnett's supposed to sign with him.
01:53:45.000
Scott Coker's on the phone with Barnett, and they've worked together before, so you know that boy Barnett gets in there.
01:53:50.000
Yeah, Mario Batali's in the kitchen right now making some sauce.
01:54:20.000
Remember when he beat the brakes off Roy Nelson?
01:54:31.000
Yeah, he might be Bellator heavyweight champion.
01:54:34.000
Especially if you let the man sleep in, you know what I'm saying?
01:54:48.000
When those old dudes get a hold of that juice, they got all those years and years of learning and experience, and then all of a sudden their body starts moving like a young man's body again.
01:55:01.000
Well, he might sign with Ryzen, but he might go to Bellator too.
01:55:03.000
Even Bellator for Vitor, he's like, dude, you know you guys test a little bit?
01:55:12.000
Well, that was one of the things that Rory, not Rory, that Gegard Mousasi was talking about guys fighting him.
01:55:20.000
Who was he bringing up that he would need extra testing from?
01:55:37.000
Because he lost a decision to Machida over in Bellator.
01:55:40.000
He wants extra drug testing for Leo to Machida if they rematch.
01:55:55.000
We let him know six months in advance when he's going to be tested.
01:56:04.000
We took them all on the same day, but we got them.
01:56:10.000
Even that's too strict for fucking VTour, though.
01:56:12.000
Hey, have you heard anything about Tony Ferguson?
01:56:18.000
Eddie Bradwell just had shoulder surgery a couple weeks ago.
01:56:22.000
He just took his, I think actually a week ago, just took his stitches out.
01:56:26.000
It must have been bad for him to have surgery because I remember the last time I saw him at the Tommy store.
01:56:36.000
He must have done something and heard it again and realized he just should go ahead and bite the bullet and get the surgery.
01:56:40.000
I need to get them stem cells in this left knee.
01:56:55.000
Team Khabib versus Notorious MMA. Will not be achieved, then next week UFC announces fight Team Khabib vs.
01:57:44.000
I mean, we're finding out what's going to happen in July, right?
01:57:53.000
Let me see that one right there, the way he's moving around.
01:58:06.000
So when he's ready to go, he'll be ready to go.
01:58:08.000
But it almost hurts him because he's such a freak and he wants it so bad he might not be ready, you know?
01:58:15.000
But he's got to be with state-of-the-art guys, man.
01:58:26.000
So he's getting on his knees and crawling across mats.
01:58:30.000
This does not totally look like a guy who's ready to fight, though.
01:58:32.000
This looks like he's just breaking down scar tissue.
01:58:36.000
Strength, flexibility, motivation, creativity increasing tremendously.
01:58:51.000
It's like, you know, these guys, they have incredible willpower and incredible endurance and incredible, like, just the focus and drive and discipline to get better, but your body has to heal.
01:59:03.000
If I'm the UFC, I'm paying to, and I don't know how stem cells work, but if I'm dating, I'm paying for Tony C, a stem cell doctor, every week.
01:59:11.000
Yeah, I don't even know if that would totally help.
01:59:21.000
Like, you've got a body chart where I can look at your diagnosis and go, oh yeah, look, after we shot the stem cells in, look, your number here.
01:59:29.000
It's better than eating fucking fruit roll-ups.
01:59:35.000
I would do a shitload of growth, which you might get flagged for.
01:59:38.000
I don't know what they're doing with testing, but...
01:59:40.000
I don't think you could really test for growth.
01:59:45.000
I think it's real iffy whether or not they can catch you doing that.
01:59:51.000
To catch growth in half-life, you have to do blood work.
02:00:03.000
So if it's just urine, those guys could probably get away with it.
02:00:06.000
If they flag you with it and then you're out for a year.
02:00:09.000
Yeah, but if I'm injured and I have a doctor's prescription for HGH to recover, I'm doing all the HGH stem cells.
02:00:17.000
You can't even have a fucking IV. While he's going through all this, he can't take an IV. How lame is that?
02:00:26.000
What if he wants to get an IV NAD drip, which will help him recover?
02:00:30.000
What if he wants to get an IV... That's not even outlawed.
02:00:33.000
What if he wants to get IV vitamins, like a vitamin infusion?
02:00:37.000
But if you're in the UFC business, why wouldn't you want that guy to be on all the HGH he can get just to recover his knee so he can fight Khabib to fight for 155, which we're all vying to see?
02:00:51.000
Who gives a flying fuck how he's doing to get there?
02:00:53.000
You'd want him for sure on the stuff that you can do, like platelet-rich plasma or, you know, dude, send him down to Panama.
02:01:05.000
The thing about Panama and going to Dr. Neil Reardon and doing all that shit that Mel Gibson was talking about on the podcast with his dad, that stuff's legal.
02:01:25.000
I'd fly that fucking doctor in here and I'd have...
02:01:30.000
Because they're doing things that aren't legal in the United States.
02:01:43.000
See, they said that the UFC made more money last year than ever before, right?
02:01:51.000
But do you know how much money they must have to pay every month for that loan?
02:01:58.000
Yeah, but they just signed a huge fucking nut with ESPN and the streaming deal, ESPN+. But do you think they have enough money where they could fly guys down to Panama every time everybody gets hurt?
02:02:13.000
If I'm the New England Patriots, I'm flying down there by any means necessary.
02:02:34.000
It's also, Pettis hasn't exactly been on a hot streak.
02:02:46.000
Kid's got a lot of star power, too, doesn't he?
02:02:51.000
There's levels to this game where if LeBron gets hurt, we're flying him somewhere.
02:03:06.000
Bro, you give me trouble with all these fucking guys.
02:03:19.000
Can you charter a plane and get a bunch of them in at once?
02:03:23.000
From the Michael Johnson fight with Justin Gagee, he gets flown down for the rest of his fucking life.
02:03:35.000
We're gonna get him to lie with his head on one side, we're gonna fill his ears up, let it soak into his brain.
02:03:40.000
And then lie down on the other side, fill them up with stem cells.
02:03:47.000
I mean, I'm giving Khabib, Connor, Tony, Eddie Alvarez, and Nate Diaz a fucking frequent flyer card into that bitch.
02:03:54.000
Do you know that that's something that Kyle Kingsbury said he did?
02:04:03.000
Did you talk about that on the podcast or off the podcast?
02:04:06.000
He's into all kinds of crazy, state-of-the-art shit.
02:04:16.000
Does everything to try and get the best body possible.
02:04:20.000
Well, now that he works on it, too, that's his job.
02:04:22.000
He's on top of everything new that's coming out, what can help, and what's the newest, latest, greatest shit.
02:04:29.000
So you're saying he injected testosterone right into his nose?
02:04:35.000
I think it's the shit that makes stem cells effective.
02:04:47.000
Ben Greenfield crashed his bike hard and really hurt himself.
02:04:54.000
And one of the things he did, that's who it was.
02:04:56.000
One of the things he did to mitigate CTE is have exosomes shot up his nose.
02:05:03.000
He did it IV, had it done up his nose, and he did like a full-body exosome treatment.
02:05:17.000
Tell Brian to shut the fuck up while he's talking.
02:05:25.000
He does a lot of crazy shit, like Tough Mudders and all that stuff, but he's on the ball when it comes to the latest and greatest stuff.
02:05:33.000
In Esquire or when he shot his dick up with stem cells and talked about all the different things he did to his dick.
02:05:51.000
Or tell Brian we don't have the podcast that day.
02:05:52.000
You know, the French Alps where they train the skiers.
02:06:01.000
When Ben's here, I just wind him up and let him drop science on me.
02:06:05.000
Dude, that dinner that he posted with all those smart people, were you guys trying to solve the world crisis?
02:06:29.000
Yeah, and Jordan Rubin, or Dave Rubin, rather, is, Dave Rubin's a stand-up.
02:06:32.000
And then Jordan Peterson can be funny sometimes.
02:06:40.000
Does one person start the topic and then you guys go around like a round table?
02:06:45.000
And sometimes we were all talking together and a couple times we broke off into separate conversations.
02:06:53.000
Those big dinners are tough because you don't really talk to them.
02:06:59.000
It's fun knowing people that are way smarter than you.
02:07:05.000
I thought about this and went, oh, wow, everyone's smarting me.
02:07:10.000
Yeah, you don't want to be the one who has the answers.
02:07:11.000
If you're the smartest guy in the group, that's not good.
02:07:14.000
Just like you don't want to be the toughest guy in the room.
02:07:19.000
You also need tough training partners to get good.
02:07:21.000
You don't want to be the best fighter in your gym.
02:07:23.000
Well, really interesting people, it makes you crave interesting conversations, makes you more interested in different subjects.
02:07:31.000
They motivate you the same way, like, if you were training with Brian Ortega, you'd want jiu-jitsu to be tighter.
02:07:37.000
It's like I did a podcast, I think, Drinking Bros with Matt Best and those guys, and they're all super high-level military guys.
02:07:44.000
They're asking me about fighting or whatever, and we're doing our dick jokes.
02:07:47.000
I'm like, hold on, because I want to hear what they say about the military, because they have their black belts in military and all that combat experience.
02:07:57.000
Your listeners are going to hate this because they probably know this, but we went by missions and how it goes down.
02:08:13.000
I woke up early on the other day and felt like tweeting like, what's up now, bitch?
02:08:21.000
But he posted he was up at like five something.
02:08:26.000
He's been on the carnivore diet before it was the carnivore diet.
02:08:36.000
I think someone goes, man, we need to get Jocko on fire and the kid.
02:08:39.000
And he goes, I'm there, but we just got to figure it out.
02:08:46.000
He's one of those dudes where you, if you read his stuff enough and pay attention, it will increase your motivation.
02:08:55.000
You know, he has this video called, you ever seen this video, Good?
02:09:06.000
It's one of my favorite, I've watched this at least once every six months.
02:09:13.000
Go full screen and give me some volume and don't start it prematurely, you son of a bitch.
02:09:21.000
One of my direct subordinates, one of my guys that worked for me, he would call me up or call me aside with some...
02:09:36.000
Direct subordinates, one of my guys that worked for me.
02:09:38.000
He would call me up or pull me aside with some major problem, some issue that was going on.
02:09:44.000
And he'd say, boss, we got this and that and the other thing.
02:09:50.000
And finally one day he was telling me about some issue that he was having, some problem, and he said, I already know what you're going to say.
02:10:05.000
When something is wrong and going bad, you always just look at me and say, good.
02:10:13.000
When things are going bad, there's going to be some good that's going to come from it.
02:10:52.000
We have the opportunity to figure out a solution.
02:10:58.000
When things are going bad, Don't get all bummed out.
02:11:19.000
And if you're still breathing, well now, you still got some fight left in you.
02:11:48.000
Dude, when it comes from a guy like him, it has a different meaning behind it.
02:11:59.000
When I'm running hills and I'm tired, I just go, good.
02:12:08.000
It's having that attitude, though, like making that switch in your mind to just look at things in a different way.
02:12:18.000
When you listen to something like that, the real beauty of something that inspires you like that is you hear it, and then you can actually put it into action.
02:12:25.000
But do you ever have a problem being self-motivated, Joe?
02:12:31.000
I've never been a guy who's been drawn to the motivational stuff.
02:12:41.000
Even when bad things happen, I'm always super positive.
02:12:47.000
Comparing my bad situations to fucking jock in Ward.
02:12:51.000
I'm talking whether it's when I lost a fight, if something's going wrong, in stand-up, something business-wise, I don't get something.
02:13:04.000
I think that's one of the secrets to your success.
02:13:07.000
Is that you look at things in a good way, and you have confidence, and you act, you know?
02:13:12.000
I mean, I tell all these young stand-ups, I go, Brendan Child's been doing comedy for two fucking years.
02:13:22.000
You have the work ethic of an athlete and the mindset of an athlete, but you're also funny.
02:13:26.000
See, the thing about comedy is a lot of people that are really funny are also, we're personal saboteurs, we're self-sabotage, we are impulsive, a lot of times get addicted to things.
02:13:39.000
The type of person that becomes a stand-up is a person who says ridiculous shit.
02:13:43.000
They say things that are socially unacceptable things because they know it's going to get a rise.
02:13:47.000
They hang around with a bunch of other degenerates like you and me hang around.
02:13:51.000
This is a certain style of person, like a Joey Diaz style of person, but you're an athlete who has those attributes.
02:13:59.000
So for you, what I tell young guys in particular, I go, this highlights the importance of discipline.
02:14:07.000
A lot of people think that discipline makes you less funny.
02:14:11.000
You don't want to be a guy who works hard, you want to be a guy who's funny.
02:14:19.000
Everything that you try to do, you should put...
02:14:21.000
The more attention and more focus you put on it, the better you're gonna get at it.
02:14:27.000
I don't want to embarrass myself or people either.
02:14:30.000
If they pay for a ticket, I want to be like, dude, Jesus Christ.
02:14:40.000
It's a fascinating thing to do for a living, man.
02:14:48.000
So I've never necessarily had a problem self-motivating, but I've always drawn inspiration from a lot of different sources.
02:14:56.000
Yeah, I go to The Rock's Instagram page every day.
02:15:07.000
But The Rock inspires you, but Kevin Hart doesn't on jets?
02:15:14.000
But when Kevin Hart's in the gym all the time, that inspires me for sure.
02:15:19.000
Doesn't mean I'm going to work out because of Kevin Hart.
02:15:33.000
It's almost a problem where I root for everyone.
02:15:35.000
I almost think it was my downfall as a fighter and as a football player.
02:15:49.000
I did a show at the Ice House and they're like, you need someone to open up for you.
02:15:54.000
I'm like, hey, do you have two door guys who are vying for spots?
02:15:59.000
So every show I'm always trying to bring the door guys in.
02:16:07.000
What inspires me is when you post a video in the crowds in Idaho or whatever, or Chris D'Elia, or the crew, when guys are doing...
02:16:21.000
We're in this race together, and everyone's fucking...
02:16:24.000
Beast and animals and you gotta you're gonna fall back in the pack man be a loser and get fucking eaten by these lions or you keep running with these monsters Yeah, that's how I look at it Well, it's it's a great attitude to have in anything if you want the people around you to do well It's a great attitude to have with everything that's been that's one of the major secrets to my success for sure is have a bunch of people around you that are kicking ass and then like Helping them.
02:16:52.000
When everybody's doing great, it's a good feeling for all involved.
02:16:58.000
When people go selfish and they only want a good thing to happen to them, and they get upset if good things happen to other people, that's poison, man.
02:17:11.000
That jealousy is one of the rare emotions that achieves the opposite effect that it intends to.
02:17:16.000
Because you intend to, like, diminish someone by being jealous of them, but in fact you diminish yourself.
02:17:23.000
Yeah, you're putting energy into things you can't control and it does not matter.
02:17:27.000
Yeah, I forget who made that quote, but it's even uglier when it's jealousy amongst friends.
02:17:35.000
It's weird to me when I was fighting, it's weird to see people who, I won't mention names, but we're on the same group and a guy would be fighting.
02:17:45.000
You could tell they didn't want him to succeed.
02:17:47.000
I'm like, dude, we just went to an eight-week camp.
02:18:01.000
I thought people were going to fucking hate me when I walked in the store, laugh at you, but I don't see it around there.
02:18:10.000
Well, it's also, once you're proven to actually be funny, you're in.
02:18:16.000
But if you were some guy who was maybe an actor that was kind of half-assing it, and people would come to see you just because you were an actor, but you weren't really trying, you didn't respect...
02:18:27.000
Well, there's been a bunch of those people that tried to get sitcoms back in the early days.
02:18:31.000
And during the sitcom days, when there was a lot of comics...
02:18:35.000
That were getting these deals and then they would do a sitcom based around them.
02:18:39.000
Very few of them ever became like a Seinfeld or something like that.
02:18:45.000
And so there was a lot of actors who got into comedy and put together like a quote-unquote act to try to get a deal.
02:18:51.000
Like they would do it because they would look at it seeing like, look, if they're just going to audition for shows, it's really difficult to stand out from the crowd.
02:18:58.000
I mean, unless you look like Luke Rockhold or you got some, you know, you're the perfect Ryan Reynolds looking fella.
02:19:05.000
And then if you're a girl, you have to be really hot or you have to be really big.
02:19:22.000
So a lot of actors looked at it like, oh, I'll just put together an act.
02:19:34.000
Let's say fucking John Goodman started doing stand-up, right?
02:19:37.000
And he'd come on stage and we're like, oh fuck, that's John Goodman.
02:19:40.000
And after about three minutes, like, okay, that's John Goodman.
02:19:46.000
Michael Richards didn't really have a background in stand-up.
02:20:02.000
And I don't know if he did it for a long time and then stopped doing it for a long time and then started doing it again after Seinfeld.
02:20:09.000
But before he had that, air quotes, incident at the Laugh Factory, we'd seen him a couple of times and it was weird.
02:20:16.000
It was like a really, really famous open mic night guy.
02:20:23.000
It was like a guy who's super famous but really hasn't been doing it that much.
02:20:28.000
Because you're going up at the Laugh Factor Comedy store.
02:20:34.000
So it's murder drone for whatever reason you got in, but you're on that lineup with Bill Burr and you and Delia.
02:20:39.000
And you've got to go up and the crowd's used to seeing high-level fucking stuff.
02:20:54.000
Well, I had gotten back to the comedy store, and I think it was Brent Ernst.
02:21:02.000
I think he saw, yeah, he was over at the Laugh Factory when it happened and he came back and he was like, he was like, yo, I just left the Laugh Factory.
02:21:11.000
He goes, fucking Kramer's up there throwing the n-bomb.
02:21:32.000
I was doing a set in the belly room the other night, and I've never seen Brody Stevens do stand-up.
02:21:42.000
He's always around, but I've never seen him do this.
02:21:43.000
And then he just came out doing crowd work and not using the mic.
02:21:54.000
He's been doing it forever, and he's just fantastic at that.
02:21:58.000
He does warm-ups for so many television shows for so many years that he's, like, super comfortable just talking to people.
02:22:41.000
Well, his style is so unusual because on paper, you would never understand where the punchlines are.
02:22:47.000
But then when you hear him say it, you can't stop laughing.
02:22:51.000
I don't know if he writes it or if he just does it.
02:22:54.000
I'd like to ask him if he writes stuff down or if he just does it.
02:22:57.000
There's a few guys like that that are just funny the way...
02:23:03.000
Theo says shit that I could say the same shit, it wouldn't be funny, but he says it and it's fucking hilarious.
02:23:13.000
Nobody really knows what funny is until you hear it.
02:23:23.000
Because I was telling him, he goes, man, you hear a lot.
02:23:26.000
I go, yeah, I'm trying to just jump on anyone's shows because I want to make sure it's not my crowd because you've got to figure out what's funny because you just played your shows.
02:23:36.000
He goes, everyone here is trying to get their crowds.
02:23:39.000
He goes, when you're on the road, you want your crowd, man.
02:23:41.000
I'm like, I know, but when I'm here, I want to make sure it's not my crowd.
02:23:44.000
Because I feel like the funny uncle at the barbecue if it's my crowd.
02:23:49.000
Like at the Ice House, if it's my crowd, especially at the Ice House, I'd walk off and feel like Kevin Hart.
02:23:54.000
That was a fucking A+. But then you go to the comedy store, and if it's not your crowd, you're like, that was a D. That was a fucking D. That's true, but if you go to the Ice House, and it's your crowd, and you actually record it and listen to it, you can...
02:24:07.000
You can tell what is actually going to work and what's not going to work.
02:24:13.000
So you have extra confidence at a place like the Ice House to do different shit.
02:24:17.000
To me, what it's like, it's like cross-training.
02:24:19.000
Like, it's not a bad idea to do some kettlebells and run some hills and do jujitsu.
02:24:26.000
And I think just doing crowds where no one knows who you are is great, but doing crowds where they know who you are is great, too.
02:24:33.000
And as long as you're paying attention, you get a different thing from each one.
02:24:39.000
Yeah, I mean, you also get different things from different sized rooms, you know?
02:24:43.000
Dude, there's certain things that will work at the Laugh Factory in certain pockets that won't work anywhere at the comedy.
02:24:59.000
If you want to talk to someone about the comedy store and, like, the history of it, Steve Simone.
02:25:05.000
Steve's been around for a long time and couldn't be a nicer guy.
02:25:11.000
Almost like there's a darkness back there that I want to meet.
02:25:18.000
I was like, can we come from a good family, it sounds like.
02:25:31.000
It used to be like 150 people, a little tiny room on the road, but it was so good, everybody wanted to do it.
02:25:36.000
And then they moved to that place, which is like 450. 450. Giant-ass ceiling.
02:25:45.000
San Francisco, highly educated, very progressive.
02:26:07.000
But, you know, what it is, is when you run into a subject that people don't accept, you gotta ask yourself, okay, does my sense of humor different than theirs?
02:26:15.000
Or did I do a shitty job in figuring out how to get that subject to them?
02:26:20.000
You know, because some subjects, like, there's quite a few bits that are...
02:26:24.000
Going to be in my Netflix special that when I first started doing them, they weren't that good.
02:26:29.000
Like, I knew there was something there, but you don't...
02:26:35.000
You really find out what's good when you try it on stage, and then that's when it sort of comes to life.
02:26:42.000
Almost every bit that I've ever done written in some way, but they're all rarely the way I do them.
02:26:48.000
You know, once you get on stage with it, that's when you start fucking with it and figure out how to do it.
02:27:09.000
But a good beating, like doing it where it doesn't work, makes you just refocus.
02:27:14.000
Let me go back and look at this thing and figure out why these people got upset.
02:27:17.000
If I just do this first, then they'll know where I'm coming from first.
02:27:20.000
They'll let me get away with that because they won't think I'm an asshole.
02:27:25.000
And you're especially finished editing yourself.
02:27:30.000
Well, I didn't have much to edit in terms of content.
02:27:33.000
It was just how much should I cut out and what show was the best one.
02:27:40.000
Really, a lot of the best one was the first show.
02:27:42.000
See, I heard Tony, as soon as you guys got done, because I text you and I text Tony and he goes, I don't even know why we're filming a second one.
02:27:56.000
You know, because it's like a theater, but it's also like a comedy club.
02:27:59.000
Because there's 900 or 1,100 people in the room, and I think it's like 500, 300, 300 or something like that.
02:28:18.000
Cat Williams did the Poms one time when we were there.
02:28:23.000
I think he was there like the day before the UFC or something like that.
02:28:31.000
I wonder how the fuck do you pull off stand-up at the Pepsi Center?
02:28:36.000
And my brother's a little bit of a hater by nature.
02:28:40.000
And I'm like, dude, he's like the most successful comic ever touring in these stadiums.
02:28:45.000
And he goes in there and he was at like a round stage, like 360, and he goes, dude, it was incredible.
02:29:02.000
It's interesting when you see those super winners.
02:29:05.000
Those super winners that just push the envelope of success.
02:29:12.000
It's also strange in comedy because someone, Kevin Hart might be your cup of tea, but then they might hate Bill Burr.
02:29:23.000
I shouldn't say hate, but maybe, you know what I'm saying?
02:29:25.000
Like, Bill Burr might be just okay to you, but Kevin Hart's your number one.
02:29:33.000
There's always going to be people that have different tastes.
02:29:41.000
If you think about how many different comedians are really good right now and have specials, whew.
02:29:50.000
Do you know Russell Peters was the first comic to get a Netflix special?
02:30:17.000
I had one on Netflix in 2005. I think Russell Peters beat ya.
02:30:35.000
When people are like, my special's on C, so I'm like, oh, fuck.
02:30:39.000
So what else is going on this weekend with the UFC? What other fights are there?
02:30:42.000
Well, you got the Ultimate Fighter finale on Friday, Brad Tavares.
02:30:55.000
I love Stylebender, but Brad's been quietly 4-0, but also Brad is a guy who...
02:31:09.000
He's supposed to pull out, but he's going through it.
02:31:33.000
You see they're selling the Ultimate Fighter house?
02:31:47.000
You've got to go in there that's going to smell like a dude's balls.
02:31:49.000
I mean, dude's jacked off in those closets without camera.
02:31:55.000
Gokhan Saki and Khalil Roundtree Jr. That's a motherfucking fight.
02:32:09.000
Felder has to cut some serious weight to make 155. Felder's a monster on the mic, too.
02:32:20.000
I'm not saying Paolo Costa's on all the drugs, but how does he pass this fucking test?
02:32:34.000
How does Nowitzki just not live wherever his house is?
02:32:47.000
Jakar Close and Lando Venato, that might be the sleeper of the night, folks.
02:32:55.000
Dude, Hooker and Burns is a motherfucking fight, too.
02:33:04.000
This is an insane card, because people aren't even talking about this Hooker-Burns fight.
02:33:17.000
Well, and a lot of people like Max Holloway and Brian Ortega, you don't think it can make it into the twos?
02:33:27.000
See, I'm hoping it does around 500 to 600. Make GSP fight again.
02:33:36.000
But I think this does around between 400 and 600. Yeah.
02:33:45.000
I think they need to get rid of the pay-per-view model.
02:33:53.000
I think they should put on ESPN these major fights.
02:33:59.000
The top four NBA guys are getting more than the top 10 NFL quarterbacks, and those games are all free.
02:34:10.000
Yeah, but NBA is way more popular than the UFC. Sure, but it's also free.
02:34:15.000
But also the sponsorship deals, the endorsement deals, they have major endorsements.
02:34:21.000
Right, but there's only so many endorsements they're going to get behind cage fighting.
02:34:26.000
Or fucking Harley-Davidson, Ford, Bud Light, Miller Light.
02:34:34.000
Like, same amount of fighters, same amount of NBA players.
02:34:38.000
Yeah, there's no comparison in terms of overall viewership, though.
02:34:41.000
Like, what is a big basketball game, NBA Finals?
02:34:47.000
I'm just saying, I think that the pay-per-view model is so old school, especially now with the legal streaming.
02:34:55.000
If I'm not that guy, because I find I'm not trying to steal money from UFC, but there's a link I can go to every time that's in HD, I don't have to pay a fucking dime for it.
02:35:07.000
They're going to jail when Uncle Fester finds out.
02:35:10.000
So when the numbers are low, you've got to take that into consideration.
02:35:20.000
I wonder if you just had it free, if the numbers would be, well, I You've got to make money.
02:35:26.000
You've got to make a big fucking risk to do that because you've got to think of how much money the UFC has to pay every month to make that loan, to make that monthly nut.
02:35:35.000
The other problem is think how expensive it is to be an MMA fan these days.
02:35:39.000
So I've got to fork out money for ESPN Plus now just to watch.
02:36:04.000
Now if I want to watch Dyson, Dyson, Dyson, Bellator, I got to pay...
02:36:15.000
Less than that, I'm assuming something's wrong with the streaming service.
02:36:17.000
Well, if they just had a free streaming service and then had ads, do you think they could make it up?
02:36:25.000
My point is, it's getting expensive to be an MMA fan, and you're losing fans.
02:36:37.000
Netflix, Amazon, those guys didn't want to play a game.
02:36:42.000
Twitter went, we'll use the NBA. We're going to go the NFL route.
02:36:51.000
Can you get Twitter on your TV? If you have it on your phone, you could just send it to the screen.
02:36:59.000
Yeah, but what if your phone runs out of batteries?
02:37:00.000
In the middle of the fight, your friends call you pussy.
02:37:06.000
Now, when you do it, I do it through Apple TV, but you could do it through Google Android, right?
02:37:12.000
You have, like, a stick that sticks in the USB. Yeah, there's a little symbol.
02:37:18.000
I mean, that all used to be science fiction just a little while ago, but I see shit on my, like someone sends me a YouTube video to watch.
02:37:25.000
If I'm home watching something on Apple TV, I'll just stream it right to the TV. 100%.
02:37:32.000
There's a little symbol, like on the top by the bar.
02:37:38.000
I feel like UFC has this old-school model right now.
02:37:41.000
But with ESPN +, it's at least headed in the right direction.
02:37:46.000
But the pay-per-view model, especially as expensive as it is to be a fan right now, they're making it tough.
02:37:50.000
I think it's going to come a time where you're not going to need any streaming service.
02:37:54.000
You'll just be able to type a website address into your television, and it'll be universal.
02:38:01.000
Like, a lot of people getting rid of their cable.
02:38:04.000
Apparently young kids, they never watch cable anymore.
02:38:07.000
I'm a Dish fan, but most young kids don't fuck with any of it.
02:38:14.000
The only thing it's good for, really, is live events.
02:38:20.000
Netflix is more popular than broadcast cable and more in TV viewing.
02:38:28.000
The thing I read said it's got more viewers than all of those combined, but I don't know if that's accurate.
02:38:37.000
See, if Netflix got the UFC, that would be crazy.
02:38:42.000
For the UFC. For the UFC. Netflix, like, dude, what?
02:38:55.000
It's like a pair of sneakers that you're never going to wear.
02:39:03.000
Yeah, that would be – but then how would you figure out how people get paid?
02:39:09.000
It would have to be in the contract because that's one thing about Netflix.
02:39:12.000
So if you have a comedy special on Netflix and you ask them, hey, how's it doing?
02:39:18.000
Yeah, but you know because like you, they go, you want to do another?
02:39:22.000
You're like, well, it must have went pretty well.
02:39:23.000
Now if you do a special on there and you're like, how are we doing like – All right!
02:39:34.000
Which I feel like is a little hairy, a little dicey, because you have no negotiating power.
02:39:43.000
Let's say you, for instance, you're like, hold up.
02:39:59.000
The thing is, like, you don't have to do it there.
02:40:02.000
But you could do it on HBO, and then you'd get real numbers.
02:40:05.000
Or you could do it on Showtime, and you'd get real numbers.
02:40:11.000
Do you think you're at a disadvantage if you're not on Netflix these days?
02:40:16.000
Because here's my argument that I had with Brian about things shooting a special.
02:40:22.000
And if you're you, if you're Bill Burr, if you're Kevin Hart, not Kevin Hart, if you're fucking Chris Rock, any of those guys, right?
02:40:30.000
They're paying you a massive amount of money and they're promoting it.
02:40:33.000
But if you get lost into that shuffle, because they have so much content now, it doesn't pay off.
02:40:40.000
You know, Gaffigan, interestingly enough, decided not to do it.
02:40:48.000
So he doesn't have it on Netflix, but he has it on a bunch of different things.
02:40:57.000
Yeah, I think he actually, I think it's available on Amazon.
02:41:00.000
I think it's available on a bunch of different things.
02:41:08.000
Yeah, that's a good point, because I think that they probably, no matter where he goes, his fans are very loyal.
02:41:15.000
But I'm saying if you're like, let's say you're a guy like Brian Callen, where are you going to get the most exposure?
02:41:22.000
The most exposure would just be released for free.
02:41:27.000
It says, Gaffigan's Noble Ape initially will be released on multiple pay TV and digital platforms, including Apple's iTunes, Amazon Video, AT&T, Charter Communications, Comcast, Cox Communication, DirecTV, Holla at DirecTV, Dish Network, oh shit, Google Play, and Sony PlayStation.
02:41:49.000
An album version will also be released on the same day in digital and physical formats.
02:42:05.000
It's interesting because I think that he could do it.
02:42:08.000
So if he does it and then it really works out well, maybe Kevin Hart might do that too.
02:42:12.000
Maybe he might say, listen, I could charge $4.99.
02:42:18.000
I could just have people are going to go watch my special.
02:42:24.000
If you're a smaller level comic, let's say B-List, you can't do that and make money.
02:42:29.000
People are going to see it, so maybe you get money back when you go on the road.
02:42:33.000
It's like, holy shit, that was great and it's free, so you go on the road and do it in theaters now, maybe.
02:42:38.000
Do you know how many comics have done that and had a YouTube video that became a giant smash and then were selling out theaters?
02:42:48.000
She has that hilarious bit about the Vietnamese girls doing her nails.
02:42:52.000
That bit got on YouTube and she was selling out giant- Crittle gel.
02:43:01.000
Well, to that extent, not that Chris D'Elia is similar to that, but Chris D'Elia on Snapchat, his videos were so funny.
02:43:10.000
Amongst other stuff, but that's one of the huge, you know, he had millions of followers on there.
02:43:14.000
So you go into Citi and And he's a brilliant comic.
02:43:23.000
You would hate us if you saw our text every day about shoes and fashion.
02:43:39.000
Sweat these boy Converse Red suede I know I'm wearing these just for you When did you get those?
02:44:11.000
And I went, Chris, these only look good on small guys.
02:44:15.000
I go, with the right outfit and small jeans you can wear them.
02:44:24.000
Because Brian likes to wear those boots that make him look like he's an Italian painter.
02:44:29.000
Yeah, he's got those boots with like wooden heels with leather soles that are really slippery.
02:44:37.000
You're supposed to wear these when you're in Catholic school.
02:44:39.000
Like, why are you wearing this as a grown man who's 51 years old?
02:44:43.000
He never had a period of time where he dressed like his age.
02:44:52.000
He like got older and fell into his established wardrobe.
02:45:50.000
I thought they were black socks and slides because they're so gross.
02:46:03.000
You can do it with slides, but you can't do it with flip-flops, correct?
02:46:11.000
It's gross if you like that sock in between your toe with that bar with a flip-flop.
02:46:29.000
Remember when dudes would wear those kung fu shoes?
02:46:37.000
A lot of dudes in the 1990s and certainly in the 80s would wear kung fu shoes.
02:46:56.000
Dudes would wear Kung Fu like they knew Kung Fu because they had those shoes on.
02:47:04.000
Yeah, those first ones you show are some bullshit.
02:47:07.000
Somebody had a bit about it, about dudes in the ghetto.
02:47:11.000
Do you remember that guy that had a bunch of fucking...
02:47:23.000
Remember he had a bunch of HBO specials where he had a bunch of different comedians on?
02:47:31.000
About dudes in the ghetto who dressed up like they wore kung fu outfits.
02:47:42.000
Aqua socks, like if you went to Waterworld or like a water park, aqua socks.
02:47:47.000
Dude, nothing dries a fucking girl up worse than aqua socks.
02:48:01.000
Yeah, if you're at the water park, so you get traction.
02:48:10.000
Maybe they're just ready for water at all times.
02:48:21.000
But those are, like, fairly similar to, like, minimalist shoes.
02:48:43.000
Those look real similar to the shit I wear when I run.
02:48:48.000
I run with those, they have like nothing to them.
02:48:53.000
Dude, my feet are way stronger because of running that way.
02:49:00.000
Yeah, because your feet have to work way harder.
02:49:02.000
It's not like, if you run in a pair of like, I like to run in like Salomon speed cross shoes because they got a lot of traction.
02:49:19.000
Like when there's no cushioning at all, and it's a thin layer, your foot is like pushing off and gripping things.
02:49:26.000
You just can't go fucking full, vibrant shoe, which I tried.
02:50:06.000
If you do the push NAV where it's like 15 minutes, It'd be funny if we did a podcast.
02:50:10.000
It's supposed to make your guts wrench like someone stomping on your stomach.
02:50:13.000
But if you get through it, you get through it in 15 minutes versus 8 hours.
02:50:30.000
Because for the rest of the time, he'd be fine.
02:50:34.000
And then for 15 minutes, he'd be like, I want to shit my pants!
02:50:58.000
Isn't it funny that he would make fun of anti-vaxxers, but he wouldn't take medication?
02:51:05.000
No, he says it solves it for a little bit, but it's not a complete problem.
02:51:10.000
I'm like, dude, whatever you're doing, just use the goddamn ointment.
02:51:14.000
Go see the psoriasis kid in Tampa, by the way, this weekend.
02:51:20.000
Don't look down on him from the third floor, though.
02:51:24.000
Look down from the top, you see that bald spot.
02:51:40.000
Jordan Peterson cured his psoriasis with a carnivore diet.
02:51:43.000
He did that carnivore diet where all he eats is meat.
02:52:15.000
I'm stressed out this week because I'm on the road on Saturday, Oklahoma, and I'm doing a set at the Ice House and hopefully a set at Laugh Factory 2 if I can make them.
02:52:25.000
But I always want to be at the Comedy Store, man.
02:52:34.000
Neil Brennan has a show, West Side Comedy Club, I think.
02:52:50.000
Is there anything else we need to talk about before we wrap this bitch up, young Jamie?
02:52:54.000
Anything crazy that happened during the podcast you need to let us know about?
02:53:07.000
I'm in Austin, Cap City, and then Dallas Improv second week.
02:53:32.000
He said, I'd be more than happy to come on and explain the whole deal with USADA. Boom.
