“Pandas. It's not good. And again, it's like the best you could do is give them enough medication to sedate them enough to take that edge off. And it took a while to figure this out. I bet it took, I don't know, six weeks or so, maybe eight weeks or so to do it. But we did it. And again, like by default, he didn't want to eat anything because this is like the only thing to eat at the time. He would eat a little of the other stuff because we forced him to. You know, by default, he pretty much fasted for a couple of days. And then he would eat because he got hungry enough. So he was eating the food that we would give him, you know, his nose to tail meats and stuff, and he got better.”

“Know we've this is probably the last rite of passage that I've been through, like to go through this with my family and to figure it out with him. And we figured it out. And we had already been living this lifestyle. The only thing that we really needed to fix, I don't know if you've heard of Paul Saladino, he's a carnivore MD. He's an incredible friend. And I said, hey, man, what's going on? What's going on here? And he said, oh my God, you guys are still eating 100% cacao chocolate and raw honey every day. Take that out of his diet. Take that out. And that's the only thing he really wanted to eat. So we took it out. He didn't really want to eat for a couple of days. And then he got better in like three or four days. So this is incredible to me. You know, when you think that you've lost your kid, when they've lost their mind like this, when you read about the prognosis with kiddos, with...”

“We were crying on each other because we thought we lost them. And when you learn about more about what Pandas is. How kids are kind of relegated to like a chemical straitjacket, they're sedated enough to where they're not in such torment because it's either him constantly asking these questions or he's screaming out of the top, you know, out of just top of his lungs. He's screaming. And one day he said, I wish I had a baseball bat because I would rather hit my brain and do damage to this brain than to live with this brain. And so I would say.”

“The hardest moment was when my son Rad got sick. We thought we were losing him. He lost his bind. You know, there's something called pandas. It stands for pediatric autoimmune neurological disorder, something like that. And it basically is like the manifestation of these obsessive thoughts and you can't stop thinking about these obsessive thoughts. It just takes over you. And one day he asked if a bad guy spits on the ground and if you see that spit, does that make you a bad person? We just thought this is the strangest question, right? Of course not. But then immediately it was like the same question, but a slight variation. If you touch the spit, you know, if you spit on the ground, and it consumed him. And it was him asking those questions. And then one day he said, oh, God, I already asked that question, didn't I? And then he realized, and it was nonstop, it was non-stop. And I remember, you know, my wife and I just...”

“He's got an ass full of steroids. I think invariably some people want to look like Liver King. They want to look like me. And what you're saying is you've got to do that if you want to look like him. And number one, I don't do it. And number two, what I want you to say is, you know what, I don't know. I don't know. I mean, that guy, in fact, he did say he's in the 0.0001% of genetics if he doesn't naturally. But I'm here to tell you, if you do all nine ancestral tenants, you're going to look, feel, and function at your best. You're going to express, will you ever look like me? You know, if you want to look like me, you've already lost, right? What you need to do is look like the best version of yourself. And barely so many of us are really scratching the potential of our being. And so that's what I want. I want the opportunity to talk about that self-limiting belief mindset. I want to encourage people get out there and do these things. And you're going to see how much more you can become.”

“Bare feet connected, anchored, grounded into the earth. Right? I show what I'm eating for dinner every day. It's usually raw liver, raw bone marrow, and I'm being nourished in the most profound way because my family is around me. It's these simple things that you do. Each of them shape how we look, feel, and function. And so when I enter someone's ecosystem, like Joe Rogan, I couldn't be more excited about it. And I just want to have the opportunity to have a face-to-face conversation with him about it because I think at the end of the day, if you say,”

“Oh my God, can you believe this? Joe Rogan is talking about me. He's done it more than once. And so all I ask is for the opportunity to have the conversation with him face to face because all nine ancestral tenants allow us to express something that was otherwise impossible. We all have the same potential. It's not just this physical potential, right? And I always say at the end of the day cheating doesn't scale. It's not sustainable and it doesn't scale. And what I've achieved from a financial standpoint, from a family standpoint, from a true fulfillment standpoint, I say, how are you doing things, how you do everything, right? This is not just my physical, you know, expression. I think that when you really get to know me, what I hope at the end of the day, you say your physique is the least impressive thing about you, you know, because at the end of the day, this is not what I'm about. I've never told anybody, start eating liver and you're going to look like liver king. What I do is I say, if you start doing these things, start every day by getting early morning sun, put your”

“Or anything for that matter. Like, it was impossible to sell a podcast for $200 million until you did it, right? It's impossible to defend the world champion title five times until you do it. And I guarantee you nobody has done what I've done for this many decades on in this kind of work, this kind of depth, this kind of suffer. You know, nobody lives the way that I live. And so what I want is the opportunity to correct that. I want the opportunity to go on a show, talk to him, face to face. You know, at the end of the day, there is a lot of hate and there's a lot of criticism. But when I say a lot, it's probably about 5% of the vocal minority. And I tell my kids this all the time. When we talk to each other, right, these are just words, right? And these words are vibrations that go into our ears, right? And then our brain assigns meaning to it. So nobody can really offend you, right? You're assigning meaning to whatever they're saying. And so when Joe Rogan's talking about me, what I'm saying is fuck you. I mean, I went and ran to my wife and I told her.”

“I've entered his ecosystem. Joe Rogan is talking about Liver King. You know, you don't know how obscure I was to most of his audience before he's talking about me. You know, and so I love it, you know, and now I have the opportunity to engage deeper with this idea. I think it's dangerous when somebody points the finger and has a self-limiting belief about themselves or somebody else.”

“How the world responds to it. And I mean, every day, the kind of messages that we get, you know, blow me away. You know, messages from kiddos that say, I wish you were my dad, right? Because I've grown up to hate myself. And I would rather hate my dad than hate myself because my dad made me do hard shit, you know, because I get endless hours of video games. The kind of messages I get from kids, you know, the kind of messages I get from moms, it's like, well, this is why we do this every single day. And so I'm going to try my best. I didn't sign up for this, but anytime that you take on more responsibility in life, you know, I feel like this leads to progress and I feel like progress and happiness are really one and the same. So this is been a challenge to get out and to connect and to do some of these things. But I wouldn't, this is my fight. This is what I exist for now.”

“I didn't wear a shirt before social media. I didn't shave before social media. I don't brush my teeth before social. I still don't. Right. And so it wasn't like, hey, let's develop this personal brand for social media. It's, man, you know what? I love my life so much. I love the roles and goals that I have. I believe that I figure out how to achieve. I figured out how to do this in harmony with the true art of fulfillment. And it's almost effortless. When you do these nine ancestral tenets, you know, like I said, the hardest thing I do every day is a workout, right? And then the tough conversations that you have with people, this is easy. You know, everything else is easy. I love the food that I get to eat. I love the relationships, the bonds that I have. My most important meaning of the day is my CEO meeting with my family. I call that the board meeting. I prepare for that the most, you know, to have these conversations with my kids. So prior to social media, this is how I lived after social media. And I said, fuck it, we'll do it. We'll put myself out there. We'll do this thing. We'll see.”

“Like anytime I'm out with my kids and people want to talk to Liver King, and now there's a line of people that want to talk and take pictures. And my kids are right here, right? And I'm here to hang out with my kids and Liver Queen, right? And now, and I want them to know, hey, here's how we're going to interact. We're going to talk. I want to try to get you guys involved too. But a lot of, I mean, we got to the hotel the first thing that the driver did is he wanted to take a But, um, About social media and doing this thing.”

“What I know is I never had an intention on going to doing social media. People would come over to my house and say, Liverkin, you got to get on social media. The way that you guys live, what you don't even have to change anything about your life. Do what you do. Put that. All you got to do is record what you do every day. And I was really reluctant to this because prior to social media, I was rich and anonymous. And now I'm still rich, but I'm no longer anonymous. And there's a lot of stuff that comes with not being anonymous that are not favorable things.”

“That's my job. That's 100% my job. You know, it's to take this message mainstream so that what I know is people know that they're missing something and that they're meant for more and they don't want to suffer like this. And so I got to look you in the eye and tell you not only am I optimistic about this is my job, right? And I just got on social media recently. And if you look at the followership that we have, like I've struck in a chord, I've struck in a nerve with people, again, because they know that there's been a problem. And people that have started implementing just some basic things. The name is Liver King because I want everyone to start with liver. If you start eating liver, this is the easiest liver to a trajectory to a better life. And I could get into some of the background why, but I just say, hey, start doing this. Go to a farmer's market, go to your butcher, go get some liver, start eating a little bit of liver every single day. And you know how many people start feeling profoundly better, right? And so am I optimistic about it? Oh yeah, I'm optimistic about it. We got to make this happen.”

“And what we really need to do is put down that goddamn phone and have some conversations. When I was in New York City, I was in the subway every single person, every single one of them. You know, and you go and you talk to someone and they almost can't believe what are you doing? You know, I have my kids approach people. You know, I'm trying to show them how to pick up girls, and I'm also trying to show them just to how to have, and so many people are freaked out, my kids are going up to them saying, hey, how's it going? What's your name? What are you doing here? They're like, whoa, what's going on? You know, is there an ulterior motive? We've lost that touch to have a conversation, right? We need to bring that back. So again, I feel like this is my job to model, teach, and preach this, right? I'm going to do as much of this stuff as I can on social media because I know when somebody puts down the phone and they have this kind of conversation, it fills you up.”

“Right. And so I do think a lot more awareness needs to come here. And again, it's all nine ancestral tenants, but this one bonding, you know, we've always needed each other, and we still do, right? There's nothing more primal than purpose itself. Like we used to know that our role was to protect the perimeter, right? We used to know that building and shelter making and wise traditions, this concept of bonding, we needed each other to do these things, to pass down the information so that we could survive and thrive. And somewhere along the way, we've started buying screen time, these distractions. And it's to our detriment. You know, once again, like you talk to people, very few people love what they do for a living and then come home to a life that they love too. And I can't tell you how many people that I talk to, I'm out there in the street and I'm talking with people. How much TV do you watch? And almost everyone is watching hours of TV and we're on their phone hours at a time. So yeah, there's something going on there.”

“Again, you get this electricity, the chemistry, the culture that can only happen, these intangible things happen. When you connect, when you look someone in the eye and you feel them heart to heart, right? When you're that authentic, when you're true, when you're primal, this is, you see this with every primitive culture. They don't have phones. They don't have any screams. They want to have fun. They're sitting around a fire and they're just talking. They're laughing. Today, it's just so pervasive and no one's saying anything about it. No one's doing anything about it.”

“The cost to that. Thank you for saying so. Like I shared with you, I don't go anywhere without him. I take them everywhere I go. I need them. I need them to feel fulfilled. You know, my most important job is as a dad. And so where I think we went wrong is people are on this thing today that we call a phone and they're on their nonstop. They're on some kind of screen. You know, when I've talked to enough people, most people that I talk to, they hate their jobs. They come home to a life that they don't love and they sedate themselves enough with screen time, with Netflix, with a phone, with medication to feel better, to get hard, call a day, call a week, call it their lives. And they're sedating themselves just enough on this thing. And we've allowed this to happen, right? My kids get 40 minutes a day on this screen time if they earn it. And here's what happens when you put down that damn phone and you have these kind of conversations and you get in a little group of people doing the same thing.”

“With my own kids. My own kids were sick. My own kids were taken ambulance rides to the hospital. They couldn't breathe. They needed an epipen. They wouldn't be released from the hospital because they couldn't fucking, they didn't recover their breathing. And so, you know, at some point you say enough is enough. And so we took matters into our own hands. We started researching. Every doctor just gave more epipend, more benadryl, stuff like that. And for me, the easiest thing to do was to implement a diet change. We throughout all the processed food, the seed oils, the liquid calories. We brought in nosetale, wild caught, organic foods, cheaply nose-to-tail stuff like liver and bone marrow and bone soups. Within about a week, our kids did a 180. They're no longer having, I mean, they just couldn't even sit here and have a conversation without wheezing. They couldn't breathe, right? We take this for granted, breathing. They couldn't even breathe, right, with that kind of freedom.”

“I think we've really abandoned the ways of our ancestors, really. I mean, all primitive culture tribes, they put the animal at the center of the diet and they eat nose to tail. We no longer do that, right? Instead, we eat some muscle meat that falls off the bone, but we're eating processed foods and we're no longer eating the organs, right? Almost all primitive culture tribes go for the liver and the bone marrow first. The Messiah went for the kidney first, right? But they're all going for the organs and they leave the muscle meats for the dogs and the birds, right? They know that the value is in the organs. So I think where we've gone wrong is really just for convenience and somebody has sold us something and we're buying it, right? We're buying processed food. We're buying convenience and we're buying it to our detriment because we don't feel good and we're not doing good, right? And we know that we're meant for more and we know that we want to feel better. But there's a lack of information out there. And you see, like I said, how happy these people are, or this is where we start.”

Somebody who comes to us with a neurocognitive condition, we start talking about getting cold, getting really fucking cold, have some egg yolks, connect with the earth, and they start asking, where do I buy this? We're not selling that, right? Or you could say we're selling it, but there's no financial exchange here.”

“Son, finish your last meal three to four hours before bed. Take in the sunset, and then after the sunset, you need to shield yourself from some of the blue lights. You can either wear the UVX glasses or put some candlelights up, how much you want to bet that's going to improve your sleep so much. And then if you want to go overboard and be obsessive, probably like you are and like I am, there's about six or seven other things you can do. That will drastically improve your sleep and sleeping closer to the ground, sleeping with a much stiffer environment is going to help you out.”

“I got to get down to get into my bed. So the mobility requirements are greater. You meet with these 80 and 90 year olds of these primitive culture tribes, they have no trouble sitting in a full squat position for hours on end. Every single day, they're getting down here and they're getting up and down. How many people just in their 40s and 50s can't do that? If you never stop doing it, you never lose that mobility. So that's one reason. Another reason is modern-day mattresses. Most of them are off gassing, right? So you've got your head. You're taking in this sort of toxic stuff like off gassing of non-native materials while you're sleeping. A lot of these also have springs in them. These metal springs that conduct ambient EMF electricity, right? So you need to be in the deepest parasympathetic sleep environment when you're sleeping to restore and recover and reload for the next day. Sleep is, I think, one of the most complicated ones. So I try and make it simple. Here's a few things you can do. People aren't going to start sleeping on the ground. What I said earlier is get early morning.”

“You know, first thing I'll say is a lot of people think that I actually don't do, I have a video that shows my bed, and anyone who comes over, I'm like, you want to check out my bed? I sleep on one planks, check it out. I got this tiny, thin wool mat. It's about that thick. It's just made out of wool. Before we used to just sleep on wood, and my liver queen is hardcore. She's like, we're just going to sleep on wood. And I said, fine, let's just sleep on wood. After about a year of having bone bruises on the hip and shoulders, like, listen, I don't think my body's adapting. And we went to visit with primitive culture tribes and they all have a little bit of cushion, either some natural ground or some leaves, some little cushion. And I said, you know what, I'm going to do that too. I'm going to do that too. And I slept much better. The answers are our bodies were never really meant to be in this kind of cast, to be in something so, think about it. You go up to modern day beds and it's a perfect height, right? You just barely fall into it, you know, and so there's a few things. One is that like,”

“At the same time every day, this helps to set your biosucadian rhythm, right? So your body knows when to be alert and awake versus sleepy and sleeping. So most people don't realize this if you really want to set up your sleep, it starts first in the morning. Get early in the morning sun through the eyes on the face on the skin, first thing in the morning. So get early morning sun, finish your last meal three to four hours before bed. Take in the sunset as a final environmental environmental cue that the day is winding down. And then try and block these artificial lights, you know, with blue light, blocking glasses, or just have fire light, candlelight, stuff like that in the house. By default, they do all these things. They already do all these things, right? The way that they eat, there's no processed foods. There's no vegetable seed oils, right? There's no liquid calories. They eat the whole animal knows the tail, right? There's usually there can be some forging foods as well, but this is what I see when I've gone and visited with the macha ganga with the Maasai what they eat is blood, milk, and meat. That's all they eat. The Maasai only eat blood milk and meat.”

“I just love telling the story. We were on a hunt looking for baboons, and one of the chiefs took a shot with an arrow almost straight up in the air. And I'm thinking, oh my God, like, you took, what if that comes down near us anyways, it came down right next to my son and me ends up actually striking my cameraman the broadside of the arrow and the torso. It doesn't pierce him, but it hits him. Like really close call. They think it's the most hilarious thing they've ever seen. They're laughing so hard at that. What are you going to do? Right? No one's yelling at anybody, you know, and he just said, we're not doing that again. You know, and these guys laugh so hard, you know, and when they go on a hunt, this is a matter of life and death. If they're not successful in the hunt, they don't eat, right? And they don't bring anything back to the rest of the tribe. The way that they sleep, this is just, so I always say some of the easy things you can do to sleep better is finish your last meal three to four hours before bed, get early morning sun.”

We were walking on the beach under the sun. I'm like, how did make you feel? Oh, it was one of the best memories. And you know, the earth has a slightly negative charge. We're electrophysical beings, right? Every single cell is electrical in nature. And so just by default, you see all of the primitive culture tribes connecting with the earth almost 24-7, 365. This is one of them, right? So it's sleep, eat, move, she'll connect cold, sun, fight, bond, right? They're under the sun, you know, most of the day they're under the sun. They're hardly wearing any clothing. They're getting plenty of sun bonding is required in this culture. Everybody knows the purpose. Everybody knows what their job is. When we go on a hunt, everybody knows who the lead hunter is. You know, they don't have to say anything. And again, the way that they organize, there's this time I tell this story every once in a while because.”

You know, a lot of these things, it's just really clear. They don't have shoes, right? So one of the ancestral tendencies is Connect. They're connected to the earth 24-7 365, right? Because of modern-day shoes, elevated bed, buildings, and stuff like that. We hardly ever come into contact with the actual Earth anymore.”

“People no longer have to suffer so that we can express our highest and most dominant form because this is a simple elegant solution. It's not like I came up with this way of living. This is your message. This is the message of our ancestors. When people start to hate on this message, you know, and maybe we'll get talking about some of the critics. I'm like, can you really hate on our species this much? Can you hate on your ancestors? This is not a message that I've invented. This is what our early ancestors have done. This is what modern day primitive cultures do. And they're happy as fuck. They're kicking our ass at life. And they have nothing.”

“This is unacceptable, right? You don't have to have it there. So if you sleep like shit, you're going to show up not the way that you want to show up. If you eat horrifically, this is the same thing. If you don't move, if you don't exercise, it's all nine ancestral tendons. The last one is bond. You know the importance. So all of them shape, you know, how we look, feel, function, what we express epigenetically from a hormonal standpoint, from an endocrine standpoint, from a neurochemistry standpoint, all of them matter. And so it kind of depends on where you're at, what you're doing. But I'll tell you, I rarely meet somebody who's doing all nine of these right and has a shitty life, right? Because people are really hurting and hating and suffering and struggling with modern day conditions like depression, anxiety, autoimmune, low energy, low libido, low ambition in life. Like there's a better life to fucking live. You got a great taste of this. So many people are living this kind of lifestyle. That's why I believe it's my job to model, teach, and preach this way.”

Because the fourth ancestral tenant is shield. And these are non-native signals that we've never been in contact with before. And we have enough of them, right? Most people keep their cell phone next to their dick and balls.”

“I believe it's really multifactorial. I believe it's all non-cancestral tenants, every single one of them. I'll say them real quickly it's sleep, eat, move, shield, connect, cold, sun, fight, and bond. All nine of these have an impact on our hormones, on our neurochemistry, every single one of them, right? You go without sleep a couple of days. How much you want to bet you show up in a horrific mood?”

“Candid with one another. What this guy needs over here is not for the next 20 people to say, oh, I accept that excuse. What this guy needs is people to say, hey, man, you're better than this.”

“The world's really suffering, right? The world's really hurting. And there's these modern day conditions that don't exist in modern day primitive culture tribes. The six tribes that have gone and visited, I've tried to assess and figure out, is there depression? Is there anxiety? Is there infertility? Autoimmune conditions in these tribes. And it seems non-existent. But today we're really hurting with these things. And so I think that we have missed something. I think we have missed. And I think that we need to hold each other accountable to a higher standard. I say one way or another, you're going to suffer. You can actively suffer and put in the work to grow and to get better, or you can passively suffer with these conditions that you have to, most people are suffering with something passively and their life could be so much better. So I do think that we've missed. I think we've become very soft. And I think we need more people. I think there's something to this. We can be nice and generous. We can be fucking honest and”

“I believe so. Believe 100% we have. Something's happened where people really watch what they have to say today. We're nice to each other. I say there's something that's happened where men have become pussies today. And of course there's exceptions to this, right? But I believe hard times make strong men and there's no requirement for hard times in the modern world. And if you look at our ancestral past, the kind of things we had to do just for food, right? For shelter in perpetuity. If you wanted sex, the kind of things you had to do as our early ancestors required real work, hard work, hard times to make strong men. And today there's no requirement for any of that. There's an app for it. You can outsource it. And when you go and you do, you know, these types of things, let's say you miss, nobody's really holding you accountable to that miss. It's become acceptable today. And then I think what a result of this is you have 80% of people.”

“Yeah. You know, so the name is Liver King for a couple of different reasons, but I believe everybody has the same primal potential to become anything. And when you can become anything, you realize that you're a true king. You're a self-made king. And that's all about what I believe I model, teach, and preach is taken extreme ownership, leadership, responsibility over the life that you shape and create. This is the opposite of the guy sitting on the couch making reaction videos, making excuses for his life, right? You have to have that insight. You have to be held accountable either by someone else and or to hold yourself accountable to one day move along the continuum from being dependent to finally independent to interdependent, right? Somewhere along that maturity continuum, I believe it's unacceptable for us to allow people to continue to do that.”

“Defend. He felt like he needed to defend himself a little bit more. And so he did apologize. You know, what I ended up saying is primitive culture tribes don't really have a word for, I'm sorry. It's, I'll get better. You know, they first have to have the insight to, hey, I fucked up and I'm going to get better. And that's all I want to hear. Yeah. So, you know, in that time, I'm sure, and it happens all the time, you know, hey, how was your food? You know, and I'm going to tell you how, in fact, I'll probably tell you how it was before you asked, you know, and I'm very compliment. When the food is great, this is the best eating experience I could have. If the food's not great and we missed here, I'm going to let you know how that happened. So I think because of that, sometimes I can be perceived as not being a nice guy.”

“I got an F450 dule truck. It's supposed to be in the shade 15 minutes early and it's not, he showed up really just on time. He showed up just on time. And we get in the car. It's hot as shit. We're all sweating. And again, I'm good with all that stuff. I'm good with, but you know what? I sweat for four or five hours a day. You know, I'm like, I'm ready to get in the car. I'm ready to be, right now I'm ready to be comfortable. And I said, hey, Adam, what happened? And he said, well, I just got back from Mexico. I was driving somebody, you know, in an RV, yada, yada, yada. I gotta, and I said, Adam, all those are excuses. What I want to hear you just say is I showed up late. This is my fault. This won't happen again. And so he starts going into all, and I said, oh, man, don't make me do this, not in front of my kids, right? Because I can't allow you to do this. I can't allow this to be anything. So I let him have it. I say, man, I just want you to own it. I want you to say that you messed up. Here's how you're going to get better. Here's how you're going to fix it. And he's still.”

“Thank you for saying so. I asked my kids on the way over here to explain to me how you would describe me. And one of them said, badass. Another said, like a king because you dominate your environment. And then he said, because sometimes you're also a dick. And I said, let's talk about that, right? Because public accountability is a big deal to me. And again, what we do is far more important than what we say. And if somebody's making excuses in front of my kids, I say, hey, man, what you're doing is making excuses. What you need to do is own what you did because I don't want to hear excuses. You need to have enough insight. Somebody needs to tell you. And the thing is, if I don't do it right now, number one, it's not a good example for my kids. Number two, because of time, I might not ever see this person again. And so I take the time to do it. And I'm sure that person thinks I'm a dick. And everyone kind of thinks I'm a dick. You know, I could have done it privately, but if I think like that, it probably would never happen. So thank you for saying that you believe I'm a nice guy. I believe I'm a nice guy too. But I believe in accountability. You know, I could give you some examples on the way to the airport or driver was supposed to be here 15 minutes early. He's supposed to have my car picked up.”

“Right. You know, so this is the message. I think when I've really fully And you're going for PRs, and you're doing a 500-pound back squat. If you screw that up, there's real danger involved. And I believe if that guy comes out enough, every single time he comes out, he gets a taste for it. He gets a little bit stronger. And I believe one day that guy broke out, Liver King. And I always say this. He ate Brian Johnson. He ate his predecessor. That guy's gone. Because when that guy comes out, it's your truest, most authentic form, right? And this is why I said I think we're going to be dynamic here today because if this is about being real and raw, a true primal is the most authentic, truest to him. And when you can be that uninhibited, it's freeing. It's completely freeing. And I was like, when you can be like that, life's like a party. Why would you ever want to go back? I call Brian Johnson the corporate, you know, Brian. Like, why would you ever want to go back to that? You know, to being nice and to saying things that you don't actually mean, you know.”

“I'm sure it is, and so much of my message today is that strength is an alpha virtue across time and space. And so the fact that I can get in there and I can control that and I can get stronger and I can look stronger and that work, you know, that's not something that you can just buy at the mall at a credit card, right? On a credit card. This is something that you have to forge day in, day out. And it's not just the gym, but I'm sure that that has something to do with like this is what saved me. This is where, you know, if I'm not in the gym, the pain of not being in the gym far exceeds the pain of three or four hours of working out.”

“You know, I start with the hardest thing I'm going to do all day. So I put myself through that. I'm like, if I can do this now, everything's going to be a little bit easier. And I've tried taking some time off. Usually I'm so overtrained that the brain isn't even thinking right. And so when I take a little bit of time off, I do a five-day fast once a quarter. So I don't work out when I do a five-day fast. And my brain is like on another level.”

“I became obsessive about this, about controlling outcomes in my life. You know, I stopped really leaning on other people things have changed. Now I would say that I really have a truly interdependent and synergistic culture. And I'm sure that you know that culture and chemistry is where it's at. You can do anything. People say this all the time, the cliche, but it's true. You want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go as a team. And it took a while to put that stuff together. I think that a big part of the dark side is I'm so obsessive about controlling certain outcomes in my life. That's why I spend three or four hours in the gym every day, every day, you know? And a lot of people like, hey, man, you just, don't you have other things that you? And I'm like, you know what? No, this is what I have to do. I have to do this.”

“100%, especially with my guidance. Absolutely, I would. You know, a lot of the kids that I went to middle school with did die. A lot of them, you know, are in jail. And so this is what I know a lot of people that are in the similar situation. They just don't make it out. Something happens to them. With a little bit of guidance, and I wouldn't give them even a lot of guidance. I think they would kick ass. So absolutely, I want them to go through something similar.”

“You know the answer is no. You know, I mean, I couldn't be more grateful, you know, for those four years. This was my first rite of passage. This forged me into the unrelenting evolutionary hunter that I am today. I mean, I figured that shit out on my own. You know, this is probably a gift I didn't have a dad. You know, this is probably a gift I didn't have somebody to put their arms because you figure that shit out on your own. You cross this chasm, right? I always think about going through these four years and I think I would never allow my kids to do this. But my kids need this too, right? They need the equivalent of this rite of passage. So no, I would never take it. And I think everyone, you know, who is self-made has various rites of passage at different stages and phases of their life. This is my first rite of passage. So I didn't tell you how grateful I am for it. I'm incredibly grave. I figured that shit out. And then I figured out the next one and the next one. And then eventually you're like, you know what? When people tell you how you really can do anything, you start to realize, oh my God, I really can do anything.”

“I'm proud to tell that story now, you know, because what forged me are those days, right? And so if I had the opportunity, what I would have said is pushback, fight. You know, you need to stand up for yourself right now and for the rest of your life. This is what you need to do. And everything's going to be okay. You know, it's okay to get bloody. It's okay to fight. You need to fight. We evolved fighting, right? Somewhere along the way. You know, I just, I didn't know that was okay. And I was just scared out of my mind that the kind of fights that I saw every day, you know, there's so much blood. And the teachers would never break up these fights because of a teacher broke up this fight. That teacher's getting it that day. So the fights lasted so long, they would wait for the gym coaches to come all the way over to the fight to break up those fights. I wanted no part of that.”

“And there was this one time in the courtyard, a new kid had come to school Chuck. He looked like me. He's getting in fights every day, but he's punching back. So once a week, he's leaving with a bloody face. And I'm thinking, oh, God, I don't want to look like that. I don't want anything to do with that. Eventually, I start to make friends with this guy, Chuck. But Chuck now gets accepted because Chuck is pushing back. And Chuck is fighting back. And meanwhile, in parallel, I'm kind of making friends with him. And then somebody tells him something about me. And then he approaches me in the courtyard and he starts pushing me in the courtyard. Now we got a group of, I don't know, 50, 60, 70 people circling around us. He's just pushing me back and pushing me back. And I'm just going back, going back. And eventually I trip over a planter. But right before that, I said, hey, man, you don't want to fight me. You don't want to fight me. I'm a pussy. That's what I said to him. You know, and for the longest time, I wouldn't tell that story to anybody. I wouldn't tell it to my own kids. I was so embarrassed to tell that story.”
