we we we like what you like what you bring oh thanks man definitely um what's it been like for
00:03:21.080
you recently i know you kind of have had like a little bit of a break from playing tennis right
00:03:24.560
yeah i've had two surgeries now in the last year uh had my left knee had a right wrist surgery as
00:03:31.080
well so just trying to get back healthy man i had best year of my career yeah finals wimbledon
00:03:35.860
love and life and then a couple injuries but it's good man i like being back in australia because
00:03:41.300
if i'm healthy i'm traveling like eight months a year away from family and friends so just for
00:03:46.620
tennis it takes that much a commitment yeah well it's there's tournaments every week you play every
00:03:50.960
week in different places different countries so i'm pretty happy like not to be injured but spend
00:03:57.440
some time with the families yeah is it dangerous like i would be scared because comfort gets kind
00:04:04.140
of dangerous you know yep like you're comfortable or you have just a even just getting to go to the
00:04:09.780
like the things i miss when i'm away from home it's even just getting to go to the gym with my mates
00:04:14.080
like little things like that it's like that would keep me from going and doing
00:04:17.900
some dates sometimes some shows it's like i just want to have this normal yeah does that kind of
00:04:25.200
shit start to like worry your brain at all like yeah well that's what i was missing the like for 10
00:04:31.180
years i was traveling week in week out i missed just waking up in my own bed like spending time
00:04:35.680
with my dogs all my friends like going to cafe and i guess i'm getting that now which is good like
00:04:40.880
i'm definitely spending more time in australia i'm busy though like you know how it is even when
00:04:43.740
you're back home you're trying to you know have meetings or be busy and stuff but yeah look i i
00:04:48.880
don't mind just being from canberra and chilling in sydney a little bit yeah yeah in tennis because
00:04:52.960
i don't know a ton about tennis i used to live with some people and they played it a lot yep and they
00:04:57.080
had a little bit of money they would drink wine and like eat like a lot of um charcuterie and stuff
00:05:01.880
yeah but they would do tennis during the daytime you know and the skirts i like the skirts on the
00:05:07.000
women do you and um but outside of that i never knew a ton about it you know is it like because
00:05:14.980
you've gotten to be at a level in it that's that's really impressive right appreciate it when you get
00:05:20.040
to certain levels you get to see what the next shelf is like or what that you know you get a
00:05:24.860
better look at certain things right do you see that there's like a thing that makes some people get
00:05:30.460
to an elite level like is it extra training is it commitment is it just nature like is it just that
00:05:38.440
some people just have it like um i'm just curious about like what it what it's what can you see once
00:05:44.520
you get to your level that um that separates the elites and i'm not saying you're not an elite player
00:05:52.500
no do you understand what i'm saying i was about to just yeah go where you're going is like i'm
00:05:57.020
probably really like i'm really good i'm elite but then what separates me from someone say like
00:06:01.640
novak jokovic or you know rafan like the greatest of all time like for me i was partying a lot when i
00:06:07.040
was playing like i would play then go to the pub like and i wouldn't i don't regret it like i love
00:06:12.020
the fact that like my agents or my team had to drag me out of places at like 4am like i love that
00:06:16.840
shit yeah but at the same time like that was what separated me i guess from them like they were so
00:06:22.080
diligent so consistent like now i'm i'm a lot better but obviously when i was a bit younger but
00:06:26.240
though the consistency that they've shown over decades is why like they're having way more
00:06:31.760
success than i have is some of it nature do you think do some guys just have a different element
00:06:36.680
like a different gear that god gave them or do you think that uh it's like a commitment thing like
00:06:43.540
because i'm just curious because tennis is such a solo sport it's like golf it's like um i mean
00:06:50.520
there's there's no team really it's just fucking you out there yeah i mean i played my longest
00:06:55.860
matches four hours and 52 minutes oh my god and i was having some serious that's like watching
00:07:00.080
oppenheimer but having to play the whole time yeah it's you have some mental serious some serious
00:07:04.680
mental conversations with yourself but i mean yeah yeah like uh and then you have like you got to do
00:07:11.480
that again for seven days straight to win a tournament basically no way is that true that's
00:07:15.680
like a grand slam yeah that's like how hard it is mentally i mean but the consistency like for
00:07:21.860
instance my nature i wasn't willing to give up like the fun aspect of things whilst i was playing
00:07:27.040
where like if i did that definitely i probably would have had more success but i've had so much
00:07:31.340
fun in my career like those are the memories i'm sure you i can't talk about them here but like those
00:07:35.600
are the memories you take to the grave and oh yeah and then that's like i wouldn't trade that for
00:07:39.560
grand slam there's no way yeah but that's the trade-off yeah you're like kind of like john
00:07:44.700
daly have you ever heard of him a little bit yeah i've heard of him yeah you're like kind of like
00:07:48.300
that or john knightley maybe because i think he partied during the daytime more because
00:07:51.840
he would yeah he would that guy's still partying i've seen him i live in nashville tennessee i've
00:07:56.980
seen him get a couple times an ambulance is his uber basically and he's coming that's pretty crazy
00:08:02.700
that's a lot oh i've seen him the ambulance got called and there was some confusion as to where he
00:08:10.160
was like on the premises and he went and got in the uh shotgun of the ambulance he went and got in
00:08:15.640
the passenger seat and just waited he's like what the fuck is taking you guys so long yeah just
00:08:20.720
sitting in there gee whiz and they're just running around with like a little uh i'm not sure what it's
00:08:26.240
called um what's some of like and i'm not gonna just grill you about tennis because i don't know
00:08:31.980
a ton about it yeah but i do want to get like some thoughts that i had like what are some things like
00:08:36.980
because football you kind of know what the physical aspect is and like the training yep what is shit
00:08:42.060
that people don't know that like like tennis training like well tennis is a tough one because
00:08:48.260
you don't know when you're going to play exactly like when the schedule comes out like for instance
00:08:52.040
soccer or football or nba or like you have an exact time when you know where the game's going to start
00:08:57.860
and the duration of how long the game goes for where tennis is you don't know what time you're
00:09:01.840
going to play where it could be at night could be first match at 10 a.m could be at 7 p.m and then it
00:09:06.620
could go for an hour and a half to five hours oh so it's like how do you train for something
00:09:10.580
with so many different intangibles and variables that's always been a big challenge for every
00:09:14.900
tennis player it's like you train for something that you don't even know what's coming and there's
00:09:19.720
no teammates you're out there on your own um and i think that's why tennis players for me
00:09:25.740
this it's one of the toughest sports in the world because we're going you know one week we're in
00:09:30.120
asia one week we're in europe in the states for maybe a month then australia it's like different
00:09:34.860
different diet different food different time zones and it's like you got to adapt and have that
00:09:39.780
adaptability to be good and that's that's tough because most other professional athletes like
00:09:43.400
set in stone preparation food sleep that's what in tennis is like you just have to just go with the
00:09:49.720
flow dude i would really struggle with it i think yeah there's like no routine really you have to try
00:09:55.220
and find yeah it's hard oh my god that's why i've lost my marbles definitely yeah oh i can't even
00:10:01.420
imagine yeah i mean and from australia as well it's worse we have like two tournaments a year here so
00:10:05.640
the rest of it's just traveling around living out of a hotel oh to live at a yeah because it's hard
00:10:12.400
enough for me like i know i guess i sound like i'm complaining i don't it doesn't sound like we're
00:10:16.480
complaining no it's it's it's definitely a nice lifestyle like learning about cultures and meeting
00:10:21.100
new people and traveling to the cool but it's not like oh i think a lot of people think when i'm
00:10:25.520
traveling i'm like enjoying going sightseeing like i'm working like you know i'm playing i'm training
00:10:30.940
i'm going to bed like yeah it's hard it's not easy yeah i mean last night like i get off stage
00:10:35.860
and i know that i have to do this today right i know that i have to edit like a previous episode
00:10:40.540
and look over it you know so i'm up for two till probably at two i went to sleep and um and not
00:10:46.520
complaining it was cool but it's not like yeah you get to get out sort of walk in the park right
00:10:50.480
yeah and yeah there's some like dame that's hitting you up she wants to hang out but you're
00:10:54.420
like i know i have to do what i gotta do or it's gonna be you know multitasking yeah i'm gonna save
00:11:01.460
this freaking you know i'm gonna save my nuts for curious you know that's what i was thinking
00:11:05.520
nothing not in a gay way but i'm just gonna save my energy i'll i'll look off
00:11:09.360
um dude also uh the food is totally different here like uh the food is totally different the
00:11:20.520
eggs are different dude if you get to a country and the eggs are different that can throw me off
00:11:25.020
for a fucking week wait do you like the eggs here like the cafes are good here like are you a breakfast
00:11:28.900
guy or a dinner guy i'm a breakfast guy there's good cafes here you like coffee i don't i like some
00:11:34.560
of it sometimes it kind of fucking i'll get a little bit weird on it but i gotta monitor how much
00:11:38.880
i drink but so i'm doing green tea right now there's a lot of caffeine in that too though
00:11:43.620
yeah i make sure i get the low caffeine one right but yeah i feel you because some of that shit
00:11:47.940
yeah australian coffee is good though is it yeah very good yeah i'll give you a list of good cafes
00:11:53.620
you should go to after yeah tomorrow you're leaving on tuesday right yeah yeah definitely some good
00:11:59.120
cafes you gotta go to i don't know you probably can't go out in here in public can you um it's pretty
00:12:03.980
it's it's not bad it's got uh this is like i i never realized it really until this time
00:12:08.840
that this is my biggest audience you know it's like years ago when i came my biggest show ever
00:12:13.580
was here like just of numbers of people coming yep and then this time it's been like that and i'm
00:12:18.080
like wow this is really must feel good it's in it's crazy but i just kind of forget that then i get
00:12:24.320
here and i'm like oh wow so many people say hello and it's nice um we are friendly people oh dude
00:12:30.460
too friendly people are just they're so fucking friendly you almost want them to fucking stab you or
00:12:36.900
something you're like you can't handle it not much of that you're like just rob me or something
00:12:42.560
at least you know i'm saying but you just want to feel at home you want to feel like you're back in
00:12:45.480
the states you know yeah like oh i don't know i can't relate to that i do have a lot of friends in
00:12:49.540
the states but it's so nice here dude yeah it is not having just the constant threat of crime or
00:12:54.640
murder yeah yep big time it's just so relaxing um yeah i was thinking about that like um i wasn't
00:13:05.880
thinking about anything really i guess but um what else is going on you think i mean i gotta do i gotta
00:13:14.460
do another podcast after this no uh yeah do you really yeah your own no not my own just i'm jumping
00:13:20.260
on a mate's one oh wow it can be a lot sometimes huh yeah i mean trying to juggle around i gotta
00:13:25.620
somehow find some time to train as well gotta keep the missus entertained oh you got a wife oh no
00:13:31.360
she's not my wife but she's my partner yeah oh yeah yeah yeah she needs attention she does yeah
00:13:37.240
and what do you like to do with their lady you guys go kayaking or what do you guys do no look i'm not
00:13:44.280
like i'm australian but i'm not like a true blue aussie in the sense like i do like crazy australian
00:13:49.200
stuff like i'll probably i'll get dinner tonight with the i'll try i don't really want to drink any
00:13:53.960
wine because then if i have one i'll have two then i'll probably go out i don't want to do that because
00:13:58.300
i don't want to feel like shit tomorrow morning yeah well you what about you what are you doing
00:14:02.100
tonight what we do we got a show and then the show starts an hour early so we might be able to we
00:14:07.800
might do something after if you the only thing the only reason if i will go out tonight if i'm going
00:14:12.360
out with you then i'll i'll come wow that's the that's i'm gonna give that deal to my missus if
00:14:17.900
the other one wants to go out i don't care what else is on the schedule that we're clearing it
00:14:23.320
dear christ then we'll tell tell the miss to put on her heels then i'm down all right cool she got
00:14:30.300
no excuse then yeah dude so if your tour starts back up for tennis how do you jump back into tennis
00:14:35.780
do you just can you just go back in at a certain point or do you have to wait till a season starts
00:14:40.920
what's it like so basically there's a ranking system uh-huh so by me not playing for the last like
00:14:46.200
year and a half because of injury i lost my ranking but i have like a protected ranking of like 20
00:14:50.280
okay so i can come back at pretty much any point in time when i'm healthy and i just slop back in
00:14:56.360
basically is it scary to be like all right i'm ready to go that seems fucking big time because for
00:15:01.760
me as a player like there's obviously a lot of eyes because i'm very like controversial and stuff
00:15:05.540
so because you're almost black a little like yeah maybe in a very white privileged sport like
00:15:10.540
tennis um oh people see a guy with a people see a guy that's been in the sun for a half hour and
00:15:15.680
they're like oh look at this brother trying to cause trouble yeah there is a bit of that there is a bit
00:15:19.860
of that um but yeah so i guess when i'm playing it's like oh he's coming back and there's a lot of
00:15:24.400
pressure on it so i need to make sure that when i'm ready to go then you're ready for all that
00:15:27.780
exactly because it's like i can't i don't fly underneath the radar which would be nice sometimes
00:15:32.000
yeah it's like what is he gonna do now exactly yeah is he gonna you know chew gum during his
00:15:38.540
match or what god forbid i do that are you allowed to do that yeah you can do that yeah
00:15:42.640
i mean i've done it yeah but like yeah you're right like i walk differently on the court and
00:15:46.560
people are like look at this deviant yeah yeah exactly gang member yeah literally i should show
00:15:52.680
you some articles after this it's crazy it's crazy yeah oh dude is there any good moments where people
00:15:59.220
yell shit at tennis because it's such a refined like if you want to get a good like it's probably
00:16:05.320
it's frowned upon right because it feels very organized out there yeah wimbledon like you can't
00:16:09.840
say a thing like it's very like you can hear the royal family's there like i was cussing in front of
00:16:13.960
the royal family which was funny like it was good gave him gave him a show but u.s open so loud new
00:16:19.300
york's crazy um but people don't really i mean now people are screaming out a lot like really yeah and
00:16:26.280
like i mean i told like there was a time at like in cali when i was playing and ben stiller was in the
00:16:32.740
crowd and one of his friends was like telling me how to play and i was like fuck that i was like
00:16:36.580
right are you good at tennis like why are you why are you speaking and then i said to ben i was like
00:16:40.400
do i tell him how to act yeah like no like i like i love ben stiller it's hilarious but people do
00:16:45.180
scream out some pretty crazy shit racial stuff sometimes pretty really yeah it's pretty and you're
00:16:50.240
not even are you no no i'm half malaysian half greek oh god yeah i am mixed yeah but you'd have to
00:16:57.180
have a damn calculator to get racist against somebody like you i feel like you gotta you know i'm
00:17:01.400
saying you gotta really have a chart or something yeah people are so diverse now if you don't really
00:17:06.760
to really be a good racist you have to have yeah you do your race edge yeah you gotta at least be
00:17:11.900
able to do some math almost i think that's why a lot of racism is disappearing because there's a
00:17:17.260
barrier to entry now because people are so mixed you know yeah um what do you think about when you
00:17:24.500
see some of these matches like they just said didn't they just have jake paul was gonna fight uh
00:17:28.500
what do you think about that shit man it's fucking crazy isn't it it's fucking dumb i think
00:17:33.980
like well what are you expecting what do you think the outcome is gonna be well i think because i
00:17:38.380
thought that jake paul would have lost by now even fighting these guys at some stage but he keeps
00:17:42.820
winning like i know that they're not like in their prime or whatever but the whole background was
00:17:46.860
fighting that's a good point and he he keeps like somehow pulling it out like if he pulls this one
00:17:52.020
out i don't care how old mike tyson gets i'm not even fighting that guy until it because i did he
00:17:56.120
actually sat down on my show he's fucking crazy really yeah like i felt i would not fight even
00:18:01.120
if he's seven years old i'm not i'm not fighting you what he just felt like he had that danger in
00:18:05.720
him yeah yeah exactly well i asked him what would you be if you weren't a boxer he said a fucking
00:18:09.500
criminal like stone cold eyes i'm like okay nice um so yeah if he pulls this one out what do you think
00:18:16.540
well i think i mean well jake fought like nate robinson who was like nate should never have taken
00:18:24.280
that fight like tarnish his whole basketball right it kind of was a nicks legend and it was just kind
00:18:29.400
of like oh can jake beat a black eye that was kind of the ambiance of that when it felt like and then
00:18:34.260
people were shocked but then he fought woodley which is tough which is tougher but woodley has not
00:18:40.500
been the same fighter he's been for years and he hasn't been a good punch thrower what about diaz i
00:18:45.420
thought diaz was going to get the job done yeah that's a good point and then and then silver like i
00:18:49.160
thought these guys are like some of the greatest ufc fighters of all time like especially silver right i mean he
00:18:54.260
picked great names but then now he's kind of gone into boxing he fought fury yeah he lost that okay
00:18:59.320
he lost that one right he lost oh yeah that's right he lost to tommy fury and i think tyson could be
00:19:04.460
still a little bit better than i would rather fight fury than mike tyson yeah i think well i don't i mean
00:19:10.500
they had that tyson against jones jr fight a few years ago is that right and it was just them hugging
00:19:16.680
basically it was basically you paid 50 to watch two brothers hug and uh which i would do i believe in you
00:19:23.400
you know you know i want all my black friends to do well and everything i believe in the community
00:19:28.420
and the culture but it's like actually yeah i would actually pay 50 to watch two brothers hug for an
00:19:34.320
hour like that would be a great pay-per-view but they build it as a boxing match yeah um jones was
00:19:40.020
gassed out early well was tyson gassed too yeah uh but they kept they hugged so quick after any exchange
00:19:46.980
it was hard to know they didn't want to like force it or risk it yeah it almost seemed like it was like
00:19:51.680
uh um does this hurt tyson's legacy if he loses it i don't think so i think his shit is so locked in
00:19:59.460
yeah you think that now he's all yeah i think it is is it staged at all now that's the part i don't
00:20:05.660
know i don't know if tyson's gonna agree to say hey you can knock me out yeah that's what i'm saying
00:20:09.860
so you know and because some of the weed can't even knock him out like dude that dude is taking
00:20:15.140
on let's say this yes he fought uh leon holmes or whatever but he's also fought you know uh purple
00:20:23.340
hooker 4.0 weed you know what i'm saying or whatever the strains are you know he gave me a box of it when
00:20:28.460
i was in uh did he really gassed out monster or whatever they keep coming up with different flavors
00:20:34.080
you know kiwi prison and shit and you're like fuck dude this shit is fucking hard dude detroit for
00:20:41.040
your lungs is a new flavor i'm like that's alarming so i think if he can beat all of that when is it
00:20:49.440
when is the fight jane well jake had a fight the other day he fought like a footlocker manager
00:20:55.220
yeah he basically fought a guy i'm not even joking nobody knew i didn't know who he was yeah even the
00:21:02.560
guy's father was tweeting like i didn't know my son was involved in this yeah it's like yeah
00:21:06.240
well there's a good fight right now joshua and angana is on now that's a good one oh uh anthony
00:21:11.560
joshua and francis and that's that's on right now i think at this moment yep oh wow manny oh joshua
00:21:18.220
won anthony joshua wow surprised by that actually i thought angana was gonna win that there's something
00:21:23.500
so lovable about angana you watch him do anything yeah that's you know he's a big man yeah i would watch
00:21:29.000
him eat a piece of birthday cake for one hour on uh pay-per-view yeah he's he's he's pretty good
00:21:35.240
physique i'm not gonna lie and there's just something charming about him you know like um
00:21:39.740
there's something about some players and athletes like that's one thing i do love about the ufc
00:21:48.720
is that you can get to know some of the athletes yep right like you get because of the press
00:21:54.200
conferences they give them yeah and um the interviews at the end of the fights and stuff
00:21:59.720
you start to get a little bit of an idea of who they are you know like um i'm a huge poirier guy
00:22:04.860
oh yeah he's fighting soon too i saw yeah yeah he's fighting tomorrow um and this will come out next
00:22:11.180
week so he will have just fought but uh yeah i love him i love i mean the diaz guys i love the guys
00:22:17.380
that i don't even like because you just get to know them like they're either the villains or they're
00:22:21.940
you get to see their personalities online sugar sean he's fighting um it's just so entertaining
00:22:28.400
there are a lot of characters on now that i'm thinking about it yeah uh but i think i think
00:22:34.080
jake paul could really bang on him it looks like i don't want it i i think it i think it hurts tyson's
00:22:39.500
legacy if he loses like that's because no one really talks about who he fought back then now it's just
00:22:44.340
like he did what he did and he achieved it and now this is if he loses it's going to be everywhere
00:22:48.440
yeah yeah it's a good point huh like when do you say hey i'm good with where sure he doesn't
00:22:55.280
need the money and is he in the right mind who's signing that deal for him i don't know i don't
00:23:00.820
know i'm gonna i'm just gonna be watching you know he fought who else did he fight he fought damn
00:23:06.740
lester douglas he fought fucking 50 shades of cannabis he's fought everybody he's fought everything
00:23:13.860
he's fought delta eight probably when it first came on the market that guy fucking
00:23:17.700
you're fucked no i'm just saying he that guy there's nothing yeah yeah he's but he's been
00:23:22.640
through a lot like he told me that he'd been through like i mean he's obviously he's been
00:23:26.380
pretty open about it but he said that he he burnt the wick at both ends like he used to party like
00:23:30.920

and then um yeah the next night i had a show in indianapolis and like oh it's horrible i've been
00:26:34.860
getting like ivs all day and had to go on stage and just felt kind of rattled you know i was miserable
00:26:41.200
what do you do now to just stay on the straight and narrow nothing i just got off of vaping so but
00:26:46.860
i'll have some fucking um what will i do i'll have some fucking pepsi max or i'll fucking slam a couple
00:26:53.100
coke zeros and just i don't know squeeze my fucking penis sometimes i just i don't try not to jerk off at
00:27:01.840
night really yeah because i think i have better dreams and like visions and stuff if i don't
00:27:08.340
so i'm trying yeah i'll just try to just sometimes instead of masturbating i'll just squeeze my wiener
00:27:14.500
as hard as i can almost squeezing the devil back into my body the fact that you say all of this like
00:27:20.620
that last two sentences with a completely straight face i i believe you thanks man yeah i genuinely
00:27:26.960
believe you i believe me too man i've i've just done it so many times because for me man if i'm
00:27:32.820
the devil comes out of my wiener that's where i feel like if i had to really you know what i'm saying
00:27:38.420
if i start thinking about something i will fucking i will tie my fucking penis to my foot and kick
00:27:45.420
somebody's fucking neck open that's how i feel you're fucking crazy bro but that's how i feel man
00:27:50.620
sometimes but i think that's drugs also built up in my system you know possibly yeah yeah and i used to
00:27:55.280
vape i'm actually like maybe 11 days off of vaping right now yeah get off the vape it's fucking
00:28:00.060
horrible it's killing children yeah no i don't like vaping it's oh dude you see they had a uh with
00:28:06.420
that vape shop blew up you see that bitch finally somebody's infiltrating these places
00:28:11.480
here's right here what did a vape like explode of explosion at vaping warehouse look at this
00:28:18.560
in michigan of course any vape any vape at any time can kind of fucking do that though look at them
00:28:26.460
blasting off like fireworks like is it good that the same things he's getting inhaled into people's
00:28:33.080
lungs yeah shit that's in fireworks would you take a firework over to it look at this this looks like
00:28:40.960
gaza and look there's some kids running up trying to get free vapes and shit that's insane
00:28:51.780
they don't blow it in just catch them oh yeah dude oh i'm sure there's some fucked hard
00:28:57.400
just four buildings down just with his head out there just
00:29:00.920
yeah oh yeah that's cranberries i'm glad you're off that yeah thanks man it's so it and
00:29:09.020
yesterday i had a moment where somebody had one and i looked at it and then i didn't even think
00:29:14.600
about it and it was the first time that my brain felt like oh thank god i'm not doing that yeah dude
00:29:19.680
good it's horrible and also you're a fucking adult and you're vaping and people see you
00:29:24.580
and you feel like you're just a pedophile it looks like it's for children you know
00:29:28.660
yeah i mean so so you don't drink anything anymore no alcohol at all
00:29:32.600
no right now because i'll buy drugs that's why yeah okay did you ever get on did you ever
00:29:37.220
did you ever drink much yes really yeah i still drink a little bit yeah yeah yeah i don't mind
00:29:43.500
yeah if you're good at it fucking do it yeah do it until you can't do it vapor though i'm glad i
00:29:48.720
that solidifies it i'm never gonna ever touch a vape again well yeah you saw that imagine if
00:29:54.160
somebody took a bottle rocket up to a seventh grader yeah and just lit one end and said hey
00:29:59.900
bub smoked it you know what i'm saying it's like tiny like it seems to be safe fuck that it's got the
00:30:05.540
same chemicals as a fucking fourth of july in it yeah you know nuts that's just damn alarming but
00:30:10.900
yeah i think i'm sure there's probably people trying to get those vapes now like uh explosion vapes
00:30:17.940
that's the thing they'll just mark it as like a new thing it'll be a new marketing tactic
00:30:21.500
like come get these explode you know that's social media though yeah somehow turn something
00:30:27.060
like that into a positive yeah it's pretty alarming um what else do you see can people you can't vape
00:30:34.780
out on the court anybody ever smoke at halftime during y'all's games we don't have halftime but
00:30:39.040
um no like look i mean i've the closest thing to something pretty loose on a tennis court if you
00:30:45.980
see someone drinking like a coca-cola like there was back in the old days i think people used to maybe
00:30:50.840
like there was like a guy who played this actually one of the he played the william sisters because
00:30:56.500
like there was a big thing between like can females and males like compete at the same level and then
00:31:01.920
some guy ranked like 200 went out there with like i think it's you can actually find on the internet he
00:31:06.640
was smoking a cigarette and having a beer while he played the william sisters and he beat them but
00:31:11.200
like he was that was probably the last time someone ever smoked a cigarette on court wow it was one
00:31:15.540
verse two no he he versus serena i think venus first and then serena after so there is a difference
00:31:21.500
in level between there's the masculine and feminine play usually i mean i believe so yeah i mean well
00:31:27.280
there's a genetic difference there's a yeah you know there's two two separate tours yeah big time
00:31:32.060
there's a scientific difference there's also probably a difference in where your body can even move i don't
00:31:36.540
know what they are but because i think women have a different um
00:31:40.700
cossacks or like uh i don't know what it's called hips or whatever you know i don't know i'm not i
00:31:47.540
don't know man yeah but yeah we we we play for we play like grand slams we play best of five which
00:31:52.520
can go for like five hours and if you play against a woman or people like do there's mixed doubles
00:31:57.900
there's mixed doubles oh there is like i played i played with venus against like someone else yeah
00:32:02.300
wow mixed doubles is fun i think mixed doubles is actually should be played more because it's
00:32:07.420
entertaining right like it's more fun seeing both sexes on the court at the same time in my opinion
00:32:12.940
for the fans like me i never thought i'd play with venus williams it's pretty cool yeah wow i went to
00:32:20.260
wimbledon one time did you yeah i was doing a comedy tour over there in england and we went to damn
00:32:26.460
wimbledon i remember walking up and being like i don't fit in here at all well i didn't know what we
00:32:31.020
should do i felt like you had to like at least be able to play an instrument or something to get in
00:32:35.500
you know i just felt like you just yeah just ticket that's it yeah i was like damn i don't know
00:32:40.340
the violin or whatever you know what i'm saying it just seemed very you know and i remember saluting
00:32:45.220
people at the gate or whatever and the guy's like what are you doing yeah yeah now wimbledon's
00:32:50.500
it's very proper yeah that place hasn't changed in 100 years does y'all sport feel too proper ever
00:32:57.420
for me i mean well i just i grew up loving basketball like i love nba watch it religiously and
00:33:02.980
when i played tennis i always felt like i was a bit of an out like a misfit right i didn't fit in
00:33:07.680
well so then when i was walking to places like wimbledon i was like this place is it's crazy like
00:33:12.640
it's so against what i like i was watching i love watching basketball entertainment american sport
00:33:17.420
for me in general is like where i fit in i feel very at home in the states oh wow so yeah yeah it's
00:33:23.120
for me it's like being at the library i feel like yeah that's what i mean and i don't like
00:33:26.820
like my personality and the way i am is like not close to how like the traditional sport of tennis
00:33:33.960
is yeah like you know i mean i'm not clean cut at all yeah so it's like i've just been in an
00:33:39.220
environment my whole life that i've kind of wanted to break out of but that's the only thing i'm
00:33:42.820
really fucking good at but that's the only thing you're good at well i'm good at other things but
00:33:46.920
that's where like we all have our right you think you do exactly oh yeah i look at a musician i went
00:33:51.740
and watched a musician play that night i'm like god we went and saw fred again have you seen this
00:33:55.280
guy dj no yeah he's fred again yeah and he was always fred i think but he still is right yeah and
00:34:01.860
we saw him and it was great and um and uh yeah i was like god that's so awesome why didn't i try to
00:34:10.760
do that yeah you know and then you have the instruments and the lights and it's a fucking
00:34:16.140
party you know you get out every night that would be tough no don't you think yeah to try and you
00:34:22.040
got to match everyone's energy all night how'd you get into this has anyone ever asked you that
00:34:26.200
in a podcasting yeah just like you like how did it all happen for you well because i feel like
00:34:32.740
there was a time where theovan didn't exist in my life and then now that's all i see is you
00:34:37.840
yeah so what was the journey like oh that's interesting man um well i'd done comedy for a long
00:34:44.480
time right people forget sometimes i think i don't know if they forget they just don't know
00:34:48.600
they don't know when you go on stage you've been going on stage for 18 years yeah even if they only
00:34:52.940
known you about you for four years but comedy's a tough gig by the way you know i think it's probably
00:34:57.720
similar in some of the sense i mean you guys i couldn't imagine having to do a four hour set
00:35:02.200
but at least you get to hit it to the other person and let them deal with it for a minute yeah for
00:35:05.860
a second yeah yeah just for a second yeah yeah that's true you really don't get much
00:35:10.760
yeah you're like fuck fuck fuck yeah yeah um but then when i think social media really got crazy
00:35:19.480
you know like uh everything was going good with podcasting that really helped because we felt caged
00:35:25.540
up by like the entertainment industry yeah you know it's the same people making the same choices
00:35:29.860
it's a very uh secular group you know over there and it's like and if you they don't kind of pick you
00:35:38.740
to be the per a person or something they see or they don't like you some of your vision then they
00:35:43.880
don't push you forward but if you tell me that i'm gonna fucking find a way forward yeah that's all
00:35:51.480
that's the only thing i've ever known is i never want to do shit your way anyway yeah so i don't even
00:35:57.000
know what the fuck i was doing here pretending i was that's the saddest part sometimes for me but
00:36:01.280
but you know i don't say that like i don't know i say that i think um some of that's in hindsight at
00:36:08.280
the time yeah you you want to go with you want to try the the path that's there i yeah i was going
00:36:15.360
on podcasts and then i walked out of joe rogan's podcast one day and i was like i just want to just
00:36:21.720
have my own thing yeah i just want to have my own thing and thank god that you know there was people
00:36:29.060
like mark maron and um rogan there was a fighter in the kid which was an early podcast with bernan
00:36:36.220
schaub and brian callum like there was just these things uh pete holmes uh there was a lot of pot
00:36:42.520
though and it was like a thing and i just started in my kitchen and then and then social media like
00:36:48.700
people other people made clips and that like got things like to a different place like when people
00:36:54.520
started taking stuff and making it just putting it out there yeah yeah because then you're you're
00:36:59.040
spreading yeah you're spreading it but you're not doing the spreading yeah so but it's kind of
00:37:03.020
alarming too because you then you can't control the spread that's true that's what i was going to ask
00:37:07.300
you because because i feel like today's day and age with what you say and stuff but i feel like you
00:37:10.880
don't filter anything but you're still saying what you want to say like a lot of people don't i know
00:37:15.200
that i can't say things like sitting with you right now i know that i could be as honest as anything
00:37:19.400
but if i said something slightly controversial it would affect my career drastically if you text it i'll yell
00:37:25.960
it out see that's what i'm saying that's what i i'm kind of jealous in that way because like oh
00:37:30.460
yeah i'm from australia right and i'm already against the april like the media is always against
00:37:34.320
me to create this reputation that like i'm a bad guy whatever it's like what'd you even do you just
00:37:39.020
wore high socks dude and fucking threw a tennis racket or some shit but it's like i kind of envy the
00:37:44.900
fact that you can be so honest oh i see well i think if you're already kind of leaning into some of
00:37:49.400
this world with your own voice because that's really what you're doing i think with podcasting i think
00:37:54.100
some people we don't even realize it maybe is that you're just trying to have your own voice
00:37:59.600
right that's a part of it in our psyche i think uh and i don't say that from like a preachy point
00:38:05.780
i say it i think from a realization point even for me just now it's like oh i just want to have my own
00:38:10.060
voice so i think if you want to have that then it'll probably be something that you have down the line
00:38:15.060
yeah you know if you're having seeds of it come into your own existence now yeah i feel like people
00:38:20.020
are embracing it a little bit more but still i would like to be a bit more honest yeah some things
00:38:23.720
one day you'll get to man i hope so yeah because i guess it does feel caged up well i think if you
00:38:28.320
work within a network you know we had this guy trevor bauer on recently and he's a pitcher and he
00:38:34.800
got maligned in the states for some um sexual allegations right and then he played in japan and
00:38:41.540
if it came to be there was never any uh any prosecution or anything that and one of the people
00:38:48.980
pressing charges or the main person pressing charges it wasn't there wasn't any validity
00:38:53.380
there it was dishonest but they he never really has gotten back on his feet for yeah but the damage
00:38:59.340
is probably done because right the damage was done but also i think he had he had been somebody who
00:39:04.620
kind of wanted to have their own voice in his sport like he had started uh he has a youtube platform and
00:39:09.780
he would comment about things he didn't love about the sport as well so i think that kind of um
00:39:16.920
once you're within a bigger group you kind of have to work with the rules of the group you know
00:39:23.960
so who does your stuff like all so you do like your show this podcast and then you go to your
00:39:28.680
show tonight like who do you answer to or do you just run on your own schedule yeah we just run on
00:39:32.460
our own schedule but yeah but but i don't play professional sport if i also was playing within a
00:39:37.240
and then you know you probably if you say something then it comes the tennis what's the overall tennis
00:39:43.280
thing called major league tennis it's just called atp like the yeah that's all it is atp they would
00:39:48.740
be like what's going on yeah you know yeah so it probably cages you up some you definitely got to
00:39:54.180
come when i'm coming back you got to come and watch dude that would be sick epic bro yeah because the
00:39:58.620
only one we could get into at wimbledon i think it was wimbledon it could have been a fucking high
00:40:02.320
school match but we it somebody said it was wimbledon did you even remember the kentucky derby
00:40:08.720
actually what when was it when is wimbledon oh july i gotta look back and see i gotta ask my
00:40:15.720
the fact that you don't even remember that disappoints me yeah because my job is when
00:40:20.720
people like that are not tennis fans they come and watch they actually remember who the fuck is
00:40:24.120
playing oh wow that's what i've been criticized doing like oh he's not even like playing tennis
00:40:27.920
the traditional way i'm like theo von came to wimbledon doesn't even know he played that should be
00:40:31.960
like a message to the atp right now like we're doing a terrible job yeah do they do is it this that
00:40:37.200
they have a tough time like i guess there's fear of like if they start to individualize people too
00:40:43.820
much over the sport then it gives a lot more power to the players themselves i don't know i wonder what
00:40:49.440
that's like like yeah like that i mean everyone knows who the players are who bring fans and why
00:40:56.120
ticket sales get sold and all that type of stuff like everyone knows that yeah and the atp likes to
00:41:00.980
hide the fact that they're they think it's a lot of an equal thing but it's not like the fact that
00:41:07.500
there's a tennis player sitting in your podcast right now like that's pretty cool yeah i think
00:41:12.420
it's cool man this is the first real tennis player i've ever talked to except for my friend's dad who
00:41:18.140
ended up he was kind of an alcoholic to be honest with you but he cheated on their mom but he um
00:41:24.400
played tennis a lot in the mornings i remember and he would um i would catch him at nights and i was
00:41:31.460
looking at porno on the computer but he was uh a good pretty good tennis player i think he was like
00:41:36.900
a 3-5 or a 4-0 did you is that good what is that 3-5 and a 4-0 i don't know he's they might have made
00:41:43.560
it up i don't even know i don't know what was going on have you played before i gotta text my buddy uh
00:41:48.840
yeah yeah i've played man tennis is pretty big in the states like obviously not as big as your
00:41:53.360
main sports but there's a lot of a lot of tennis fans out there when we were children we had to
00:41:57.740
play at school yeah and it was you would see wow some people are very yeah like they have unathletic
00:42:03.500
and they oh yeah that's like my thing with tennis you get like the best athletes in the world you put
00:42:07.620
a tennis racket in the head they become uncoordinated really yep have you seen it happen yep a lot of times
00:42:12.960
a lot of times i've seen some basketball players try and play some of our athletes in australia try and
00:42:17.980
play tennis i think because it's non-contact it's easy oh you know yeah it's such a finesse game huh
00:42:24.480
it's finesse a lot very technical yeah yeah what do you like and if you have a bathroom break how long
00:42:31.280
is that well the rules that's where it gets gray because you can like if you need to take a number
00:42:36.800
two like take a shit you can just be like i need to go straight away and then like like the umpire
00:42:41.000
it's all on the umpire's discretion like no way so you have like a shit colonel or whatever and yeah
00:42:45.700
well like the umpire like an admiral or whatever yeah like an admiral yeah like umpire but like
00:42:50.820
yeah if i need to go bathroom i can go change events but it's like for like 90 seconds no but
00:42:55.300
then like if i need to take like then how do they know i could get sick like i could be sick or
00:42:59.640
whatever so i hate having to pee real fast because it burns a little too i don't know if that's healthy
00:43:04.100
brother yeah yeah that's true that might be a personal thing oh god dude i shouldn't have
00:43:11.240
fucking said that it doesn't burn all the time it just but if you have to hurry and pee like
00:43:15.180
sometimes if somebody's like hurry up and you're like you get stage fright yeah or yeah you just
00:43:19.140
have to pee so fast yeah if you get stage fright in front of yourself then you're just a fucking
00:43:23.780
weirdo i think i don't get that yeah i don't get that dude um but yeah so you have to how do you do
00:43:30.680
you do you give a guy a little bit of a signal that you have to go to the loo or what do you do
00:43:34.460
you have to tell you have to ask him you're just like oh i didn't go to the bathroom your honor
00:43:37.240
can i shit yeah basically like you can't just like get subbed off and go to the bar yeah you have to
00:43:40.960
be like can i go to the bathroom whatever oh my god so it's very much like the old days in the
00:43:45.680
king yeah yeah like the game in my it's a bit old school like it's not gonna be if you look where
00:43:51.700
sport's going now and how entertaining it is like especially with all these misfit boxing matches
00:43:54.940
like all this type of stuff like tennis it's got some work to do it would be cool if
00:44:00.240
at certain points like the net lit up or something and there was like a spice round or something there
00:44:05.200
you go you know yeah but they they they like the way it is but it needs to change how can it change
00:44:12.840
though that's what's interesting too is some sports you wonder if they just if he'd like hit the ceiling
00:44:19.200
almost yeah like in a way i mean obviously competition will always yeah i want people to be there but you
00:44:26.460
wonder yeah i never thought about that do some sports start to um have they just had their time
00:44:32.160
in existence like bocce ball what is that yeah what is it great question i don't know but i know at one
00:44:38.220
point it was one of the top 11 sports in the whole world when was bocce ball big brother you pull that
00:44:45.340
up tennis i guess it's just because they're i think they're afraid to lose the the lifelong fans that
00:44:50.740
they've had you know what i mean yes and you do need those because you do but then you also how
00:44:55.460
does the sport survive gets you have to like i'm not a big i wasn't a big ufc guy at all and now i
00:45:01.920
like watching it yeah you know what i mean like if they just stayed true to their fighting fans like
00:45:06.080
i think they've done an amazing job marketing at press conferences tennis has none of that like tennis
00:45:10.460
we don't even have like if we had a press conference before the match that would be good
00:45:15.700
but now we only have post you know what i mean yeah yeah it could use something yeah how do you
00:45:21.340
spice it up but it's kind of it definitely is challenging because it's like with any brand
00:45:25.740
it's like how do you cater to you know like we have a we have some young audience members i'll be
00:45:32.500
like around you know uh kids kids yeah and they're like what the fuck all people say that in front of
00:45:39.800
their parents and the parents are like you can't say what the fuck yeah i'm like i can say it to him
00:45:43.840
and i'm like yeah i know but i think i don't know this kid if you strip it back like you just
00:45:47.920
you're teaching people to just be yourself and be comfortable in your own skin and you know i think
00:45:53.100
you at the end of the day it's not this is a swear word yeah yeah i think the alarming part is when
00:45:59.360
they say it in front of the parent and then they're like yeah this guy says it and i'm like
00:46:02.840
and then because there's this moment like me and the kid know each other and it's like
00:46:07.100
and the parents looking like how do you know my child yeah yeah like i don't know this fucking kid
00:46:13.080
and then i'll say it again yeah just so the parent knows that i do use the word but
00:46:16.640
yeah and but yeah it's like and then like but yeah there's with everything on the internet though
00:46:21.660
i don't think watching you swear is that bad compared to some of the shit that's on there now
00:46:25.760
yeah that's a good point like it's very less of the two evils that's for sure yeah um what did it
00:46:31.880
say when was bossy ball one of the biggest how do you play is it like lawn balls yes it's lawn
00:46:36.820
balls that's still pretty that's still pretty it's not small now no no i agree and actually hard by
00:46:41.720
the way i played recently really it's a lot harder than i thought it was going to be when we go to
00:46:46.500
the beach uh someone brings it usually the sport is very popular on the eastern side of the adriatic
00:46:52.220
especially in croatia serbia montenegro bosnia montenegra i'll say that um slovenia yeah because
00:47:02.020
people are always going to want to compete but yeah i wonder what you could do to tennis to make it
00:47:05.100
spice up i think if they're you can't put like cheerleaders that would be that's too much is it
00:47:11.480
what about this if they had a chick in a box on the sideline and every now and then she just
00:47:17.280
smiled at a play that would be kind of hard what'd you say say a chick in a box yeah if you had like
00:47:22.120
a dame or what i don't know what you guys call them over here but a female yes of um of chest with
00:47:28.620
with breasts or of chest i don't know how you say it but if you had a female of chest and she was in
00:47:34.520
like a little bit of a cage maybe i don't want to say and then like what and a good shot happened a good
00:47:38.800
shot happened every now and then she just she would just smile a wink you know just something
00:47:42.980
casual and subtle so it's respectful but still just gets a bit more off chest yeah just gets a
00:47:51.280
bit more of like a oh look at olivia she enjoyed it definitely function on a different spectrum man
00:47:58.560
i love it but you know what i'm saying oh look chloe enjoyed that like if this one extra little thing
00:48:03.480
to give it some well if it would get you in more interested then it'll help yeah if you got to
00:48:09.520
listen see if chloe was interested if she just kept reading her book you know yeah in the little box
00:48:14.160
in the cage or whatever not people know what i'm talking about what else is going on
00:48:19.080
hmm bocce ball yeah bocce ball 10 facts about bocce ball the world's third most popular sport

00:57:07.560
like that's like a normal thing sometimes in sport though like people shoot their shot at their
00:57:12.580
athletes yeah that's a good point huh and has anybody ever tried to like write their number on
00:57:17.320
a ball or something and just thrown it out on the court or anything oh not not like because it's hard

to do it on the ball but yeah like like that like love notes piece of paper all that type of stuff yeah
00:57:25.340
yeah people get pretty creative these days yeah i mean with social media though it's pretty easy

it's pretty easy yeah but i'll message a girl a girl back even if it's a girl that i'm interested in you
00:57:34.960
know like i'll be like oh maybe because i i don't have a uh wife yet you know so i think like
00:57:40.220
and i travel a lot so it's hard to like build something i agree you know and so sometimes i'm
00:57:45.460
like i would like to meet somebody in the but then i'll find like the other day a girl messaged me right
00:57:52.080
and it was just kind of a nice little message so it's i wrote her back then she takes our message
00:57:58.260
and puts it on her story yeah that's fucked up and so then i'm like well now like that's just
00:58:04.060
that shit happens all the time i'm not complaining about yeah but it just like was like
00:58:08.060
no but fuck now it's like i but then now you feel like you feel like such a fucking i didn't say
00:58:13.420
anything messed up yeah you were just being nice but you feel like a creep and now you and then it
00:58:17.980
makes you were like oh i'm never messaging anybody again now you get walls up no i know that i mean
00:58:22.420
i've had plenty of times where shit like that's happened and it's like i feel like yeah it's fucked
00:58:29.740
man i feel sorry for you in that standpoint would be like 10 times worse for you yeah but that's
00:58:34.240
that shit's cool oh i don't know i think for but with that at least i just don't have a company to
00:58:38.900
report to what if you you know you have at least like they could say something you know yeah i mean
00:58:43.080
look yeah i mean still like today's day and age what you just message a girl back and then like
00:58:48.160
what she posted online from from what for a bit of clout i know it just is weird because then it
00:58:53.580
because then you're like oh we can't even get to know each other but i don't know i guess it just
00:58:57.120
it is what it is man i don't want to sound like one of these fucking guys it's like complaining
00:59:00.980
about some girl messaging you i know but like that's that's why i think if you look at like
00:59:07.040
the rate of relationships failing and stuff it's because of all that type of stuff oh it's horrible
00:59:11.040
like it's oh it's real scary man um yeah it's just scary there didn't used to be as so many things
00:59:17.340
you would see that would tempt you because temptation you can't really you can only fight it so much like
00:59:23.080
it's built into you yeah you can avoid like to be attracted to something else is built into you
00:59:28.920
yeah yeah i i don't disagree i don't disagree but it used to be like in the old days like if you yeah
00:59:34.620
you would just go to the grocery market or something you would see a woman across the
00:59:38.380
thing and you would just you know i guess now it's a bit more accessible and attainable but
00:59:44.960
yeah i mean like that that makes me angry what you just told me like what they should post it made me
00:59:50.840
kind of angry too because it didn't make me like oh i can i now i'm never gonna message anybody
00:59:55.240
then my brain starts going well now you're never gonna fucking meet anyone you fucking queer you
00:59:59.600
know or something yeah it's gonna be it'll happen organically yeah yeah that's what they keep saying
01:00:05.220
right here yeah oh what happened here um ex-inmate who complained you spent too long in jail on joe
01:00:11.640
rogan's podcast arrested after police find body parts in freezer this guy something johnson was it
01:00:18.640
wait wait sorry so so wait so he went to prison he went to prison an ex-convict who claimed to have
01:00:23.180
turned his life around after joe rogan's podcast has been arrested and charged with murder
01:00:26.380
sheldon johnson 48 had been on the joe rogan experience and discussed his justice reform
01:00:31.860
advocacy in an episode that aired just last month johnson had previously spent over two decades behind
01:00:37.680
bars after sentenced for attempted murder and robbery so he spent two decades and then he got out and
01:00:44.060
then he went on the podcast and they just found this recently yes and then he just now killed
01:00:50.580
somebody and then just chuck it stuck it in the freezer and i think yeah at least he put him in
01:00:57.760
the freezer okay i knew i knew something like that well i'm just what do you do like dude what are you
01:01:02.280
talking about i'm just saying this that is not at least why is at least at the front of that bro yeah i
01:01:07.780
guess it's like what do you mean at least well there's some level of decency i feel like if you just
01:01:12.160
kill someone and leave them out to spoil or whatever that's fucking horrible
01:01:16.440
you don't think so i just think that person just needs to get put away again well yes i think we can
01:01:25.440
both agree with that nicholas but normal i'm just saying that i believe but what happens if you put
01:01:30.480
in the freezer because he wanted to do something to it afterwards like that's like sick in the head
01:01:34.260
well that's very sick yes but i think if it's just a level of like oh gosh at least let me
01:01:41.800
do my best by them now by yeah i would yeah i guess you're right i mean yeah but did he put the
01:01:51.120
whole body and what did he do let's see what he did at least before we make a judgment this is on
01:01:55.180
you should search up so some guy you know hey i was this is on you kind of saying like
01:01:59.620
australia as being a safe place and whatever so about six months ago someone came to my house
01:02:04.180

01:04:18.320

how did they know i don't know i guess they just after more that's what i said i was like how did it take
01:04:38.880
like almost seven months to find out that it's the same guy but it was like anyway that was a scary
01:04:45.260
morning then it was just on the topic that you know australia is a nice yeah man the stuff's coming
01:04:50.440
it's it's everywhere now is it really getting worse you think in here in australia yeah big time like
01:04:55.420
i'm from canberra it's not like a great neighborhood but it's not like to someone to
01:05:00.220
come on monday morning at 7 45 to your doorstep yeah and then just point a gun at your mom's oh it
01:05:05.500
sounds very american sadly you know yeah i say that sadly man it's fucking it's so sad there's
01:05:12.400
a part of me that does not want to go back and feel at risk all the time like you always have to
01:05:20.300
protect yourself yeah i definitely feel like i mean that was my my parents have lived there for
01:05:24.520
like 40 years so it was a bit it's a bit scary for me and there was another some guy actually came
01:05:29.240
robbed out another car the other day as well it's getting crazy scary and guns but that
01:05:35.400
how'd that guy even get a gun yeah people can get guns really yeah man like yeah because you
01:05:42.680
always think of like they wouldn't have it yeah because you always hear that there's no guns like
01:05:46.260
yeah because you always think about grand theft australia or whatever and people are just
01:05:49.740
trying to convince each other to like get out of the car or whatever that's what i mean like there
01:05:53.320
was a time where someone having a gun in in australia was like but now it's like dude that
01:05:58.600
it happened like six months ago wild scary i know and i just wish that people use swords and
01:06:06.760
shit still that'd be pretty hectic so much more fair though yeah i mean look yeah it's a yeah it's
01:06:12.360
a bit more fair yeah yeah you have a sword on you no i don't have a sword on me bro i'm not a fighter
01:06:18.380
man okay look i ain't looking i'll tell you that um do you think because you're really locked in you
01:06:25.720
guys have a actual have a backhand right like backhand forehand yeah and so do you think when
01:06:31.480
you look at this slap fight what the you think this is something you could get into dude this
01:06:37.140
shit's crazy this stuff is this is entertaining man i don't mind this oh my god tattoo's not gonna
01:06:42.900
save you at that at that yeah that guy thought and that's blackface also too can we just say that
01:06:47.500
like oh that guy's nothing oh that's flirting are you just not bro oh that's bexing oh damn
01:06:55.300
no this sport's crazy like this sport is like wow this sport's nuts like whoa that guy started in
01:07:04.320
the past so much momentum oh this guy's shaking oh what do i mean it's pretty crazy eh but do you
01:07:18.100
think you could do this because you you built it's built into your body system yeah maybe but i don't
01:07:22.940
know how good i would be at taking the hit though like a tennis player you know we kind of like hit
01:07:27.720
maneuver like very calculated for our next move where here it's like you want to throw one you have to
01:07:33.600
stay put no i'm not doing that bro sorry and also you're tall so if people i feel like were aiming
01:07:38.180
up it would just be all they would really be able to i don't know i don't know the angles and how it
01:07:43.600
affects what what's best you know there's different like yeah you got to go sometime and if you're in
01:07:48.800
the states dude i'll take you if there's yeah i'll go watch i like wolverine i like that guy yeah
01:07:53.020
bring him up he's dope wolverine and top toppin i think his name is t-u-p-p-i-n he's awesome to watch
01:08:00.580
you got to watch him versus toppin i think t-u-p-p-i-n i might have been i went to one i'm
01:08:06.060
going to one in a couple weeks so crowds are big there yeah the oh it's not as big it's pretty
01:08:11.140
small intimate it's intimate this is what this is this is this guy's nuts wolverine versus turpin
01:08:17.380
yeah light heavyweight match oh no i the one i didn't see was wasn't for the title and this dude
01:08:23.760
turpin's face yeah these guys are nuts um he knocked that guy's a kappa sig i think he knocked
01:08:36.760
him out sometimes i think a slap like that would hurt more than a punch oh you're right honestly
01:08:44.320
sometimes i do think that like this guy just watch this ready bang bang oh here we go
01:08:49.320
dude he's oh he look he's singing the national anthem he's definitely fired up right there
01:09:03.020
bro and that guy might not even have a chin he's definitely hiding whatever he may have a unique
01:09:09.500
chin under there it's very hard to hit somebody like that yeah but and i wonder if you can get
01:09:14.120
down low like no because you can't because that's called clubbing i think if you get down low and try
01:09:18.360
and club i think it has to be a legal slap because all the thing about legal slaps how you throw it and
01:09:23.480
then if someone flinches they get to slap again oh yeah it's heaps of all these rules yeah it's crazy
01:09:28.200
what if someone just screams like a little girl that's what i i would worry that what happens i would do it
01:09:33.040
i don't care oh i would do that first so at least if you get hit after it would be like what
01:09:37.640
i'd be like oh and just get fucking drilled can you bring up what are the rules of power slap is a
01:09:43.560
great question yeah power slap is nuts um yeah i went one time and like there was cowboy seroni was
01:09:49.800
there sean strickland um it's definitely a lot of like uh influencer um entertainers um a lot of
01:09:59.280
dana white's friends are there yeah it's very much like a friendly thing who strikes first in power
01:10:04.800
slap a coin toss or seating method will determine who gets to elect the slap or defend first
01:10:10.000
the clock you have 30 seconds to slap 30 seconds to recover repeat wow bro that is a short amount
01:10:17.360
of time 30 seconds yeah that's that's that's quick weight classes are consistent with mma so there is a
01:10:22.520
weight class i didn't realize that rounds the number of rounds depends on the format with the minimum being
01:10:27.700
three in each round both competitors have the opportunity to deliver a single strike to their
01:10:32.520
opponent's face and the obligation to receive their opponent's strike and return method of victory
01:10:38.760
ko tko and points like boxing and mma power slap judging is based on a 10 point must system with a
01:10:46.700
round winner scoring 10 points and the opponent scoring nine or fewer wow so dana what owns this as
01:10:53.040
well right yes it's pretty crazy that's it's unbelievable yeah and this is a this is according
01:11:00.620
to dana one of the most um like uh viral things that happens when it happens yep foul striker fouls
01:11:10.560
include clubbing they're clubbing stepping yeah so i guess i'd be making an actual step with your foot
01:11:15.320
illegal windup oh i'd be way guilty of that and delay of flinching blocking delay of game wow
01:11:22.700
the complete power slap rules that we posted shortly huh pretty cool yeah that's crazy man you think you
01:11:29.420
could do it no i don't think i'm like i don't getting hit no not your thing no um what is one
01:11:37.820
of the scariest moments in a tennis man are there moments where you find like because i'm sure so
01:11:43.080
much of it is rhythm you've done it so much right yep is there moments where you feel out of rhythm
01:11:48.500
and you're like fuck this is a like yeah big time or like at u.s open i was playing quarterfinals u.s
01:11:55.520
open and i was like u.s open arthur ash stadium is one of the biggest stadiums in the world for
01:11:59.520
tennis like it's literally you walk to the back of the court you look up it's like a sea of people
01:12:03.020
like just like staring down at you and it's really loud and you have celebrities there like michael
01:12:08.100
jordan was there once like pretty lit like it's it's a surreal feeling walking out to a court like
01:12:13.460
that in front of like 60 000 and then you get like millions people watching around the world but
01:12:17.500
it's like yeah if you're playing horrible like and you know deep down if you're not having a good
01:12:22.420
day like on court and you can't fix it because it's like you can't just like instantly fix you
01:12:27.400
got to be like shit i can't just sub off here or pause the game or take a time out it's like
01:12:31.520
the game just keeps going you got to just problem solve like on the go it's fucking hard and like
01:12:37.500
is it possible to turn it around in a match is it possible yes because in a grand slam it's like
01:12:42.400
you have you have to win three sets so if even if you lose the first two you have time to figure
01:12:48.580
it out and and turn it around but it's fucking hard it's why novak and federer and nadal have been
01:12:55.480
so dominant for so long because in the grand slam it's so hard to get on top of them for that long
01:13:00.440
like pause like you can get on you might you might win a set or two like that's like two hours but then
01:13:06.320
they'll eventually start figuring you out and then it's just like and is there actual coaching that
01:13:11.700
helps or is it just at that point you know what's going on everyone knows everyone's strength and
01:13:17.180
weaknesses it's just about execution at that point right yeah like when you're out there alone
01:13:21.580
like your coach can yell something out but if you can't execute it's not going to happen yeah it's
01:13:28.380
pretty it's it's a brutal sport man is it i don't think people give it enough credit especially the
01:13:34.340
top yeah yeah that's what i yeah because it just to stay that long four hours of doing and who does
01:13:41.940
anything you know unless you're like uh just doing something that's just such a commitment
01:13:49.220
and that you have to be mentally locked in too like are there ever points you just zoned out
01:13:54.200
you're like big time me sometimes i just throw a game or a set like just to mentally reset for sure
01:13:59.520
definitely yeah yeah wow so that's almost part of the strategy too you're like yeah it's like boxing
01:14:04.460
like you put your hands down for a little bit like or you know just taking a little bit of a pause
01:14:08.460
people i've been accused of like not trying or like it's called tanking you know you're just
01:14:13.280
giving the opponent easy points and it's just like i'm just trying to compose myself to go again
01:14:16.540
right it's like a boxer does it you wouldn't accuse him of just like not trying it's just a tactic you
01:14:21.680
know it's hard yeah man damn i never realized that i never even thought about it yeah i never even
01:14:28.860
thought about what it would be like to be out there for so long yeah and then if you're not doing well
01:14:34.560
then two how do you even keep going yeah you gotta have you gotta have a short-term memory loss or
01:14:40.460
like you have to be a good loser in tennis because you lose every week essentially like you have to
01:14:45.300
win six matches to win a tournament and novak these greatest of all time are usually winning
01:14:50.520
these tournaments so like you win then you gotta lose and it's just like reset next week new country
01:14:54.820
like losing is just part of the process really yeah which is hard and is there much camaraderie
01:15:01.160
amongst the players and stuff or do you get to another cool thing like we shout like any other
01:15:05.880
pro sport you have your own locker room like you eat separately like tennis you're all in the one
01:15:09.500
locker room like i'm showering and i'm eating and i'm spending time with my opponent before going out
01:15:14.460
there and playing no yeah and then we like you might be out there four hours playing and then you're just
01:15:19.320
like next to each other again straight after the match no fucking crazy oh is that so is sometimes
01:15:26.700
that really uncomfortable you're like i do not want to be around this person anymore like we just
01:15:31.140
competed and we could get into a bit of a like a scuffle on the court or like argument then you're
01:15:34.860
like sharing next to the guy it's like the fuck is this yeah it's crazy oh yeah like wimbledon
01:15:41.720
final me and novak in the same locker room like right next to each other and then we're walking out
01:15:46.660
together eating together then we play like the final what the fuck yeah it's crazy why would they
01:15:52.800
they should film all of that why isn't that the first three sets dude yeah you guys just you know
01:15:57.960
having soup next to each other just pretty crazy angrily yeah i'll see why that isn't the first
01:16:02.540
yep oh it's so intense yep um what's in any other news anything else that popped up that was in our
01:16:08.620
list man and we'll get you out of here nick easy brother this is about ai um jensen huang
01:16:18.960
esien esien um at the recent world government summit in dubai nvidia ceo jensen huang made a
01:16:31.540
counterintuitive break with what he thinks is a long tradition of tech ceos advising youngsters to
01:16:36.100
learn how to code huang argued that even at this early stage of the artificial intelligence revolution
01:16:41.340
programming is no longer a vital skill with coding taken care of by ai humans can instead focus on
01:16:47.860
more valuable expertise like biology education manufacturing or farming
01:16:52.960
wow i agree with it you do yeah because it's like anything you leave down to like computers and ai
01:17:00.200
if it's something to do with numbers for sure yeah it'd be it'd get done probably way more like 10 times
01:17:05.280
more accurate and done in the shortest shorter period of time but here's one thing that's interesting
01:17:09.760
about ai is like if they can program the back end of ai right then they'll be able to start to dictate
01:17:16.340
like what even is created or written like and what history is in it like i say if they only put a
01:17:21.760
certain history in ai yeah and they only say one side of history or they don't you know then if you're
01:17:28.200
even writing a paper and you want to use ai to help you or a script or creating a piece of art the
01:17:33.800
information it's going to give back that's what i start to worry because like imagine if you wrote a
01:17:39.440
note to somebody yeah but the paper determined what you could actually say in the note yeah like
01:17:45.120
you had limitations it had to be one way right the paper wouldn't let you put certain words you wrote
01:17:49.280
certain words they disappeared and they replaced it with another word that the paper felt like
01:17:53.920
was more accurate arguably what the media is right now though oh 100 that's exactly what the media is
01:17:59.520
but i think yeah i agree but if this if ai can do that they'll then it's like even say someone your
01:18:07.940
mom wanted to make a post on facebook or something yeah they put it up but it only allows you to say
01:18:12.160
even so then we're all just only allowed to say the same things you know and look ai would never be
01:18:17.560
able to take over say like podcasting or sport and stuff because people watch that because of the
01:18:21.560
personalities and the unknown outcome that's a good point right so we're safe yeah you would think
01:18:26.660
yeah we're safe i think we're safe you would think one of my friends was saying the other day
01:18:30.160
that he thinks like at a certain point they won't even need actors for movies anymore because it
01:18:34.640
will just be the likeness of people yeah so people will just give their likeness yeah that's that's
01:18:40.940
pretty crazy it is crazy because what if one day you just get to sit at home and then it's just like
01:18:46.720
and see how you do at the u.s open yeah that would be crazy like they extract yourself from you but
01:18:53.640

01:18:57.200
i feel you bro you know like i actually wouldn't mind that having that option yeah you know yeah
01:19:05.460
