00:00:00.000 Why dogs love you so much, according to science.
00:00:02.480 And, Adam, I'm not going to with this.
00:00:04.440 Just letting you know because you know nothing about it.
00:00:06.580 So I'm going to go to a couple of the other guys.
00:00:07.740 I've had a couple of dogs.
00:00:09.160 Well, what is it about dogs and their relationship with humans
00:00:14.260 that have been dubbed as man's best friend?
00:00:18.360 From an evolutionary perspective,
00:00:19.760 the human-dog bond is one of the most fascinating examples
00:00:22.460 of co-evolution we have, says Caroline Wilkinson,
00:00:25.360 a certified animal behaviorist and founder of Pet Coaching Service Marketplace.
00:00:31.340 We didn't just domesticate dogs.
00:00:33.320 We grew up together.
00:00:34.260 Early wolves who could tolerate humans likely found survive advantages,
00:00:39.400 warmed food safety, and in turn, humans gained hunting partners and protection.
00:00:43.340 Owners may joke about their pets being their fur babies,
00:00:46.520 but according to Wilkinson, that's not far from the truth.
00:00:48.960 Over time, we both develop brain and hormone responses
00:00:51.620 that actually mirror each other.
00:00:52.820 When we look into our dog's eyes, both species release oxycontin,
00:00:59.500 the same bonding hormone shared between mothers and infants.
00:01:02.080 She adds that dogs are so good at reading human nature, human emotion,
00:01:06.060 and behavior that their own emotion can be impacted by our levels of stress.
00:01:11.160 That is also why they can be such good predictors of our behavior.
00:01:15.480 We use a Labrador Golden Retriever Cross quite a lot
00:01:19.300 because labs are hardworking and motivated,
00:01:21.600 while retrievers are similar but are more laid back.
00:01:24.600 Anyways, this whole story with dogs, man.
00:01:27.300 This last four weeks has been a little bit tough for us
00:01:29.520 because the last four weeks, if you want to pull it up,
00:01:31.960 two of my best friends both died within two weeks apart.
00:01:37.900 Jimbo and Cooch are no longer with us.
00:01:40.340 Both of them.
00:01:40.740 That was last week.
00:01:41.460 What?
00:01:41.740 Yeah.
00:01:42.980 Two weeks.
00:01:43.740 He had a stroke and a heart attack.
00:01:45.780 He did.
00:01:46.200 And then the other one had a heart attack.
00:01:48.980 And this is Jimbo.
00:01:50.400 I don't know how many years ago it was.
00:01:51.840 If you see the little thing on the paper,
00:01:53.960 that's when we're posting that all over the place
00:01:55.420 because he was missing for 11 days, that guy.
00:01:58.180 And a guy took him,
00:01:59.720 and we had to find him through ring camera
00:02:03.000 that they posted dogs missing.
00:02:05.000 A guy calls me.
00:02:05.740 Me and Tico, Mario show up, middle of the night, ready, protected.
00:02:10.900 And this was Jimbo and Cooch when they were kids, by the way.
00:02:12.980 Look at that right there.
00:02:13.560 Oh, my God, Tico.
00:02:14.080 That's them, the two dogs.
00:02:15.620 Okay.
00:02:15.880 And then look at Tico.
00:02:16.880 Can you go to Tico's picture with the dog?
00:02:18.840 Tico just loves dogs.
00:02:19.880 He loves animals, bro.
00:02:21.740 Anyways, these guys were the best 16 1⁄2 years.
00:02:25.820 Jimbo would always sit right next to me no matter where I was.
00:02:28.740 And way better to me than I was to him and both of them.
00:02:33.240 I even did a video the day I knew was his last day.
00:02:36.080 I made a video with he and I that I will not share,
00:02:38.900 but we have a video of he and I sitting outside.
00:02:40.680 And he was, at this point, blind, couldn't hear, couldn't do nothing.
00:02:44.360 And we took him to the hospital.
00:02:45.780 He stayed there two days at the hospital,
00:02:48.020 hoping he can make a last shot after the hospital.
00:02:50.500 I'm at work.
00:02:51.040 I get a call.
00:02:52.320 And Jen says, babe, we're supposed to get on a flight
00:02:54.220 to go to Dallas at a Goldman Sachs event.
00:02:56.460 And I'm telling, I'm like, planes parked outside on everything.
00:03:00.140 I said, you guys got to wait.
00:03:01.640 We went.
00:03:02.320 I said, Tico, you take the dog.
00:03:04.300 My dad won't put the dog in his car because he's not a dog guy.
00:03:07.560 But Tico takes the dog.
00:03:08.680 On the way there, he has an aneurysm.
00:03:11.300 Oh, man.
00:03:12.860 Jimbo does.
00:03:13.700 He has an aneurysm.
00:03:14.740 We take him in, and they're like, nope, he's done.
00:03:17.300 And you look at his eyes.
00:03:18.280 He was no longer with us.
00:03:19.380 But anyways, if you own a dog, you know what it's like.
00:03:21.980 These guys were life-changing.
00:03:23.260 They were so good to us.
00:03:24.300 And to all the dog lovers out there who have dogs, man, you know, give them a hug, man.
00:03:31.580 Give them a kiss when you see them tonight.
00:03:33.720 They become part of the family.
00:03:35.100 Every night I wake up right now when I go to the bathroom, I'm worried about stepping on a dog.
00:03:39.840 Every night I wake up, I need to go to the bathroom.
00:03:43.420 I'm like, oh, shoot, the closet door is open.
00:03:47.220 They're going to walk in.
00:03:47.940 Nope.
00:03:48.760 They're not there anymore.
00:03:49.980 So anyways, hey, shout out to Jimbo and Cooch.
00:03:53.260 If you guys are watching this from heaven, man, all dogs go to heaven.
00:03:55.800 One of my favorite movies of all time.
00:03:59.020 You saw that photo?
00:04:00.260 There's which one?
00:04:01.620 I took this photo.
00:04:02.760 We were in your old house in Dallas.
00:04:03.420 I have not seen this one.
00:04:04.320 You just posted this one.
00:04:05.280 I'm like, where did you get this one from?
00:04:06.620 This was in November of 2020 in your house.
00:04:09.660 It was in Dallas.
00:04:10.360 Remember that?
00:04:10.860 You think that's what we heard at your pool table?
00:04:12.160 Yep.
00:04:12.480 I took that photo.
00:04:13.300 I was like, look at this.
00:04:13.960 They loved you, man.
00:04:15.360 I had no idea about Cooch.
00:04:17.640 I'm sorry about that.
00:04:18.080 Yeah, both of them.
00:04:19.060 Both of them.
00:04:19.620 So the house is very empty with no dogs running around.
00:04:21.820 Yesterday we had Vivi running around and Brooklyn was on fire.
00:04:25.420 Anyways.
00:04:25.800 Are you going to get a new dog?
00:04:27.920 I don't know if I'm ready yet.
00:04:29.180 I don't know if I'm ready yet.
00:04:29.860 I think we will.
00:04:30.680 I love dogs.
00:04:31.460 We're always going to have dogs.
00:04:32.380 Maybe me and Vinny would just put on some fur and run around a little bit.
00:04:34.480 Bro, do me a favor.
00:04:35.480 Let me just say this in disclaimer.
00:04:36.700 Guys, don't send dogs.
00:04:39.080 Don't send dogs.
00:04:40.060 I'm being serious because Jen one day, a guy who was a big fan, shows up with a pit bull
00:04:46.080 to the house.
00:04:47.240 I remember.
00:04:47.880 To drop off a gift and Jen is crying because Brooklyn was just born.
00:04:52.280 She's crying saying, babe, we can't have enough.
00:04:54.560 That's Jimbo on the podcast.
00:04:55.720 He's even been on a podcast.
00:04:57.080 Yeah, yeah.
00:04:57.440 I just sent him Berto that.
00:04:58.180 Look at Jimbo was on a podcast.
00:04:59.440 By the way, Berto, look at the last thing I sent you.
00:05:00.740 You took his right shirt.
00:05:01.640 Oh my God.
00:05:02.080 Look at this guy.
00:05:03.860 Look at him.
00:05:04.640 Jimmy boy.
00:05:05.640 Look at him.
00:05:06.800 My man was the best.
00:05:08.040 That was like a year ago, I want to say.
00:05:09.480 He's the best.
00:05:10.660 I think even Brandon's on that episode.
00:05:11.940 You know his entire life?
00:05:13.100 Oh yeah.
00:05:13.720 He only bit two kids.
00:05:15.580 You know why?
00:05:16.420 For the same reason.
00:05:18.420 Both two-year-old boys thought it was a good idea to squeeze his huevitos.
00:05:22.420 Oh really?
00:05:23.200 No, that's no good.
00:05:24.020 And he bit both of them.
00:05:25.760 And I said, listen, you don't do it.
00:05:27.640 And one of the boys that he bit the huevitos, bit the hand, was Tico.
00:05:34.100 Oh really?
00:05:34.520 Tico just goes, wham!
00:05:35.720 And Jimbo goes, wha!
00:05:37.400 Humberto, you get that last picture I sent you?
00:05:39.340 Well, I respect you too, Fraley.
00:05:40.780 You know why they really loved you as much?
00:05:42.720 I mean, because I saw you with them.
00:05:44.100 But they respected you and loved you on a different level?
00:05:46.040 Because you didn't cut off their huevositos.
00:05:48.600 No, no, no.
00:05:49.180 You kept them intact, homie.
00:05:50.380 Guys, this is yours.
00:05:51.060 And they sported them.
00:05:51.740 That kind of stuff.
00:05:52.900 Yeah.
00:05:53.220 Anyways.
00:05:54.240 You remember this dog, Pat?
00:05:55.360 Let me see this one.
00:05:56.660 That's the one.
00:05:57.260 Oh, that's that vicious.
00:05:58.080 That's the one.
00:05:58.580 That was the dog that you were gifted.
00:05:59.660 That guy bit everybody.
00:06:01.680 And by the way, he was the best.
00:06:02.800 By the way, he bit my arm one time.
00:06:04.600 That was Kobe.
00:06:05.160 I was bleeding so bad.
00:06:05.760 Kobe.
00:06:06.120 Kobe, exactly.
00:06:06.600 We were wrestling.
00:06:07.720 He would come to the office.
00:06:09.020 But Vinny, he would bite you.
00:06:11.280 Vinny, there's a video of my entire elbow is bleeding because of this guy.
00:06:15.620 Maniac.
00:06:16.000 He was the coolest guy to fight, but he wanted to bite you.
00:06:18.120 He would eat real chicken.
00:06:19.440 Like, not live chicken.
00:06:20.800 Raw.
00:06:21.460 Running in the backyard.
00:06:22.500 But we would go to Costco, buy chicken bones.
00:06:25.060 He would eat the chicken bone and everything.
00:06:26.640 No, you couldn't give him, like, dog food.
00:06:28.440 No.
00:06:28.580 It's like, what are you talking about?
00:06:29.140 I'm a freaking pit bull.
00:06:30.240 Yeah.
00:06:30.520 Anyways, he's somewhere in Texas right now doing his thing as well.
00:06:33.000 The other night, my wife's hosting some of her friends over at the house with Bible study.
00:06:38.120 Anyways, they're doing their thing.
00:06:39.300 They're having their food.
00:06:39.960 They're laughing.
00:06:40.960 And I come in.
00:06:41.820 There's, like, 20 cars in front of our house.
00:06:43.500 My security freaks out.
00:06:44.680 He's thinking something's going on.
00:06:46.420 I said, no, no, no.
00:06:46.980 I think there's something.
00:06:47.740 I think Jen told me.
00:06:48.620 And I forgot, obviously.
00:06:49.480 I forget we had some.
00:06:50.820 And I come in.
00:06:51.340 This lady walks up to me.
00:06:52.760 We start talking.
00:06:55.000 Very nice lady.
00:06:56.160 She says, oh, I see the shoes you're wearing.
00:06:58.200 She says, are those the shoes you've worn 3,000 days in a row?
00:07:01.840 She says, after hearing you talk about it, that you've been wearing it for so many days,
00:07:05.520 I eventually bought one for my husband.
00:07:07.400 So guess what, folks?
00:07:08.200 You know what I'm wearing today?
00:07:09.120 3,001.
00:07:09.800 Let me tell you.
00:07:10.540 When I tell you, since September 9th, September 10th, I've worn this every day except for
00:07:15.960 three days.
00:07:16.540 I'm not kidding with you.
00:07:17.640 It's the most comfortable shoes in the world.
00:07:20.860 It's the product that you see us talk about every single flipping day.
00:07:23.800 But today's special, let me tell you why it's special.
00:07:25.860 You know what just showed up?
00:07:27.080 Nice.
00:07:27.760 The whites officially showed up to our factory.
00:07:30.760 First time ever.
00:07:31.960 And the navy blues showed up.
00:07:34.620 First time ever.
00:07:35.800 By the way, this is now in our fourth order because they sell out.
00:07:40.200 So if you're somebody that's wondering why are people loving these FLB shoes, you may
00:07:46.000 want to watch this video and find out for yourself and then go place an order for someone you
00:07:50.300 love.
00:07:50.480 But this white one just came.
00:07:52.420 Absolutely sick.
00:07:53.500 Look at the bottom of it with the FLB on the bottom.
00:07:56.060 Watch this clip and it will take you to VT Merch and we'll go from there.
00:07:58.920 Go ahead, Humberto.
00:08:00.080 To create a shoe that blends comfort, function, and luxury.
00:08:04.300 We had the choice to make it fast.
00:08:07.100 We had the choice to make it cheap.
00:08:09.160 We chose neither.
00:08:10.640 Instead, we chose Tuscaneiro.
00:08:12.960 We chose true Italian craftsmanship.
00:08:15.560 Each pair touched by 50 skilled hands.
00:08:18.440 We chose patience, spending two years perfecting every detail, and we chose the finest quality
00:08:23.880 at every step.
00:08:25.940 Introducing the Future Looks Bright collection.
00:08:28.620 Not rushed, not disposable, not ordinary.
00:08:33.860 Rather intentional, luxurious, timeless.
00:08:38.060 There you go.
00:08:43.820 Humberto, do you want to go to vtmerch.com?
00:08:45.800 Oh, you're wearing it today.
00:08:46.620 Good for you.
00:08:47.080 By the way, there's nothing like wearing these shoes and you're sitting in a boardroom or
00:08:50.900 in a conference room or anywhere at dinner and you put your feet like this and everybody
00:08:54.760 sees it and they say, you got to be kidding me.
00:08:56.780 Go all the way down.
00:08:57.400 Remember, these are 100% made in Italy.
00:08:59.440 100%.
00:09:00.160 Five factories with the on-cloud foam on the bottom, the super foam technology on the bottom
00:09:05.160 so it's comfortable and light when you wear it and if you compare them to the Berluti
00:09:08.500 Fergamo Zenia's Gucci's, the price difference is insane.
00:09:13.480 So if you haven't placed an order or two, the list we get of people that are buying, I can't
00:09:18.720 say the names until these people wear it.
00:09:20.320 You would be amazed who's ordering these shoes for Christmas for themselves and their families.
00:09:25.360 Go to vtmerch.com, place an order or two, one for yourself, one for somebody you love
00:09:29.800 or maybe your husband, someone else you got out there so they can wear the FLB shoes, the
00:09:34.340 white and navy blue is here.
00:09:36.040 The sizes, if you're wondering what's already been out, size 13 sold out.
00:09:40.360 For navy blue, these are not available size, navy blue, oh my God, it just goes very quickly,
00:09:46.320 okay, on what sizes are there.
00:09:47.360 But go place your order, it'll tell you when it's going to be delivered.
