So Hughesy 33 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,560 Speaker 1: is he's an icon in Australia. He won't say that, 34 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: but I will because he's far too humble and self deprecating. 35 00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,680 Speaker 1: But he's a comedian.

It was just a collective death. 332 00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 4: It's just a collective and it's like and it's when, 333 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 4: especially early on in a stand up comedy career, every 334 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:02,320 Speaker 4: night for me, possibly especially because the other comedians say, 335 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 4: you're crazy up there, because I'd never do the same 336 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 4: joke twice, and so I'd get up and do different 337 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 4: stories every time I got up on stage, and the 338 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 4: older comedians would have shaking their head at me, because 339 00:15:12,080 --> 00:15:14,920 Speaker 4: if the first one doesn't go well, you feel like 340 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,480 Speaker 4: you're ruined. Like the crowd just make up their mind 341 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,680 Speaker 4: and they you can't get them back because you don't 342 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:21,000 Speaker 4: have the skill to do it. 343 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 6: So it was a real lottery for me earlier on. 344 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:27,920 Speaker 1: But I think, you know, there's this concept in sport 345 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:32,360 Speaker 1: and high performance, and I would think in well not 346 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,440 Speaker 1: I would think, I know, also in public speaking, whether 347 00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:40,360 Speaker 1: or not that's to motivate, inspire, educate, or entertain, and 348 00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: it's really about how well we can perform under pressure. 349 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: It's not how funny are you with your mates at 350 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:48,960 Speaker 1: a bar or how funny are you with your family 351 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: at dinner. But how funny can you be? How much 352 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: can you create connection and engagement in that situation which 353 00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:01,760 Speaker 1: is uncomfortable, which is unfamili which is with a bunch 354 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 1: of strangers who don't know you, and they don't give 355 00:16:04,000 --> 00:16:06,160 Speaker 1: a fuck if you're funny or if you crash and burn. 356 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: If you crash and burn, that's funny for them. If 357 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,680 Speaker 1: you're funny. If you're funny, that's a bonus. But they 358 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: don't care if you're funny or not. And they don't 359 00:16:13,800 --> 00:16:15,760 Speaker 1: care if you go home and fucking don't sleep for 360 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: four days. 361 00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 6: Now, you need their attitude in a way. 362 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:19,760 Speaker 4: You need to not care. 363 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 6: You need to go. 364 00:16:21,440 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 4: You need to get beyond it and go. I can 365 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 4: deal with whatever happens here, you know. So in if 366 00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 4: they sense that you're desperate for their affection, they just 367 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 4: won't give it. So it's like a part of you 368 00:16:33,200 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 4: needs to be relaxed. The most tense I get on stage, 369 00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 4: or the most pressure I've felt in the last probably 370 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:44,040 Speaker 4: ten fifteen years, is doing the opening of the Logans, 371 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 4: which I've done. I did four years in a row. 372 00:16:46,680 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 4: So you're walking on stage to the you know it's 373 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:52,800 Speaker 4: broadcast it's live on TV. People love getting on the 374 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 4: internet and just slaughtering whoever's on stage because it's a 375 00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 4: sport to hand shot on the Logans. If you're from overseas, 376 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:04,720 Speaker 4: it's astral Is Television Awards Night. And so to walk 377 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 4: on that stage and you know that, you know your 378 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:09,080 Speaker 4: peers in the audience are half and the want you to. 379 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 6: Fail at least probably because they don't want to. 380 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 4: They don't have to laugh at someone else because they 381 00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 4: want to be laughed at themselves. And so yeah, that's 382 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,600 Speaker 4: the most pressure I've felt in a long time. And 383 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 4: if you've ever been to the Logans Australis Awards Night, 384 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,680 Speaker 4: the crowd do not shut up before the broadcast starts. 385 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:30,440 Speaker 4: There's just it's a dinner and show. There's a thousand 386 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 4: or fifteen hundred people just talking really loudly. 387 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 6: The warm up guy they don't even listen to him. 388 00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,119 Speaker 4: He can hardly be heard above the din of people 389 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 4: just clattering, eating and bloody yelling. 390 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:44,640 Speaker 6: At each other. 391 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:47,560 Speaker 4: And so to walk on that stage, which I've done 392 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:51,159 Speaker 4: a number of times and succeed in that stage has 393 00:17:51,200 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 4: been a very satisfying thing for me to do. To 394 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 4: get that crowd silent and listening and laughing. Is Yeah, 395 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 4: that's pressure that I've handled through years of doing every gig, 396 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,040 Speaker 4: getting on stage at tiny pubs, getting on stage at 397 00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 4: big theaters, just taking every opportunity, and yeah, and then 398 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 4: doing the work. If you've done the work, and I 399 00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 4: imagine this is in all fields. If you've done the work, 400 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,320 Speaker 4: you can handle the moment. If you haven't done the work, 401 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,400 Speaker 4: well good luck. But if you've done the work, you've 402 00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:27,399 Speaker 4: got yourself a chance. 403 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 1: I feel like for you that your natural habitat is spontaneous, unscripted, 404 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:39,720 Speaker 1: organic raw. Well, I can't see you loving the old 405 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:41,120 Speaker 1: AUTOQ or. 406 00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 6: No, I'm not ANOQ guy at all. 407 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 4: I do not. I did a TV show for the project, 408 00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,159 Speaker 4: which is on Channel ten or one of these train networks, 409 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 4: and I was started that show and I was there 410 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:52,840 Speaker 4: for five years and I never used THEOQ. 411 00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,199 Speaker 6: It just did not work for me. So yeah, you go. 412 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,560 Speaker 4: But I am a guy who knows routine, and so 413 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 4: I do when you say you want to look unscripted 414 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:05,840 Speaker 4: when you're doing stand up comedy, but you know what 415 00:19:05,880 --> 00:19:09,280 Speaker 4: you need the ammunition of stories. You know the work, 416 00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:13,640 Speaker 4: and I would for doing that opening of the awards night. 417 00:19:14,040 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 4: I would go to pubs, you know, and talk to 418 00:19:16,840 --> 00:19:20,000 Speaker 4: backpackers who didn't even know the stars that I was 419 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 4: talking about, the Australian TV stars. But I would fashion 420 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 4: jokes that even they could laugh at. And so if 421 00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:29,840 Speaker 4: these you know, backpackers pissed in a pub could get 422 00:19:29,840 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 4: the essence of the joke, I knew that joke was bulletproof. 423 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 4: And when I took it to the stage of people 424 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,760 Speaker 4: who knew who I was talking about, I knew that 425 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 4: they would really work well. 426 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:40,400 Speaker 6: But it was that. 427 00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:44,480 Speaker 4: Crafting of stuff in in pubs and in small comedy 428 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 4: clubs that allowed me for that sort of gig, to 429 00:19:49,040 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 4: get it right. 430 00:19:50,840 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 3: I'm like you in that I can't. 431 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 1: I get this constant bit of feedback when I go 432 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: and I'll do something for when you do a corporate 433 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:03,119 Speaker 1: gig in the space of personal or professional development, generally 434 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,439 Speaker 1: what happens is the speaker will turn up. They'll go, 435 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 1: here's my USB, here's my presentation, here's my three videos 436 00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 1: I want you to play, here's the debt that I 437 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 1: don't have anything.

Or where's your where's the where's your presentation? 441 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 1: And I say it's in my head. And they they 442 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 1: panic because they're so used to everything being very scripted 443 00:20:33,200 --> 00:20:37,679 Speaker 1: and planned and choreographed. And I say, how can I 444 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: pre plan a conversation with people I've never met? 445 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 3: Right?

So that 666 00:30:15,160 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 4: is yeah, But you know, am I gigging up bread? 667 00:30:17,160 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 4: And I don't know, mate, But I tell you what, 668 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:21,239 Speaker 4: I'm just not getting sore. And as a fifty year 669 00:30:21,280 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 4: old to not get sore around ten kill me eleven 670 00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,680 Speaker 4: kill minutes the other day, you know, I'm just over 671 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 4: four minute case and not sought at all. I swear 672 00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 4: to God from the age of thirty, I reckon, I've 673 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 4: been sore after exercise and I'm now fifty running that 674 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:41,160 Speaker 4: sort of distance and we're at speed and not for 675 00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:42,840 Speaker 4: a second getting sore. 676 00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:44,400 Speaker 6: That's unbelievable. 677 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 3: How are those once very chalky, vulnerable hamstrings? 678 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 6: They're fine. I tell you what. 679 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 4: My calf muscles, which I was probably from the age 680 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 4: of forty, I was getting real bad calf or just 681 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 4: constant calf injuries. 682 00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 6: So I never get any momentum with my running. 683 00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 4: So because I would just pull a calf, take a month, 684 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 4: get over it, pull a calf again, and I was like, 685 00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 4: that was really basically shut down my running. And I'm 686 00:31:12,360 --> 00:31:15,600 Speaker 4: not getting any touchwood. I'm just not getting any calf injuries. 687 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 4: A physicist, I'd say that's the old man injury. There's 688 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:22,040 Speaker 4: nothing you can do about it. You've got to accept it. 689 00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:25,000 Speaker 4: Well I don't. Well, this appears that I don't have 690 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:25,680 Speaker 4: to accept it. 691 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,720 Speaker 1: You know, there's this I mean, all my listeners are 692 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 1: board of all the shit that comes out of my 693 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,440 Speaker 1: mouth with this stuff. But you might not have heard 694 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 1: of this term. It's just called biofeedback, and all it 695 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,920 Speaker 1: means is that your body's always telling you stuff. And 696 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 1: I believe that we should all I'm not talking about 697 00:31:41,360 --> 00:31:43,680 Speaker 1: with medicine and drugs, but I'm talking about with food 698 00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: and exercise and sleep and lifestyle and hydration and coffee 699 00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: and tea and booze or whatever. I think we should 700 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:54,600 Speaker 1: all do some self experimenting to see what works well 701 00:31:54,640 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 1: for your body, because you know, there's a lot of 702 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,719 Speaker 1: people who would not advise you to do what you did, 703 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:01,840 Speaker 1: a lot of people who would advise you to do 704 00:32:01,880 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: what you did, which just basically tells us there's no 705 00:32:04,440 --> 00:32:07,480 Speaker 1: universal right. So it's trying to find what's the best 706 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 1: food strategy, exercise strategy. You know, how much sleep do 707 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 1: I need? How do I hydrate my body optimally? And 708 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,840 Speaker 1: how much recovery time do I need between you know, 709 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,000 Speaker 1: sets and reps and runs and all that kind of stuff. 710 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:21,760 Speaker 3: And it's really individual. 711 00:32:21,760 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 1: But people think there's this one best program or this 712 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 1: one best eating philosophy. 713 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 3: And so I always encourage people. 714 00:32:29,280 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 1: If you're listening to Hughesy and you go, I wouldn't 715 00:32:32,080 --> 00:32:34,920 Speaker 1: mind giving that a go. I would say, go, give 716 00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:37,840 Speaker 1: it a go. Do like twenty eight days. Do it 717 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:40,240 Speaker 1: to the latter though, don't half do it, don't kind 718 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: of do it. Don't do it for four days and 719 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 1: then get shit faced on the weekend. Do it for 720 00:32:44,800 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 1: twenty eight days, or do it for fifty six days 721 00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 1: or whatever timeframe you want, and then literally just see 722 00:32:49,960 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: how your body responds. Because this is you know, you 723 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,320 Speaker 1: can't get another one, the one that you've got the 724 00:32:55,360 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 1: only one. 725 00:32:55,720 --> 00:32:58,000 Speaker 3: You can get. You can't replace it. It's not renewable. 726 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:02,920 Speaker 1: And so I think that the idea of you know, 727 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:05,760 Speaker 1: stepping out of doing what doesn't work, and most of 728 00:33:05,840 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: us are doing what doesn't work. And when you can 729 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:11,800 Speaker 1: go through fifteen or so years of constant pain and 730 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: exhaustion and post exercise muscle soreness, and then you change 731 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 1: one thing, which is not an insignificant thing, but you 732 00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: change one variable, and then all of a sudden, your 733 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:26,719 Speaker 1: physiology is different, your energy is different, your performance is different. 734 00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 3: It's amazing. 735 00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:34,280 Speaker 4: Yeah. Look, I'm I've got mates who work in the 736 00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:36,680 Speaker 4: dairy industry and they get angry at me for saying this, 737 00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:41,480 Speaker 4: and I'm like to say it too loadly. 738 00:33:41,840 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 6: Listenership. But you know, I wonder about dairy. I really do. 739 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:48,240 Speaker 4: My brother works at warm Wool Cheese and butter factory, 740 00:33:48,240 --> 00:33:51,520 Speaker 4: and it's really angry when I questioned dairy. But I 741 00:33:52,560 --> 00:33:55,800 Speaker 4: wonder whether I wonder whether because I was a pescatarian, 742 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 4: you got a member for a long time, so I 743 00:33:57,760 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 4: didn't need any red made eat each chick for a 744 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 4: long time and I was still getting sore. But go on, 745 00:34:03,920 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 4: the vegan is the difference so you got rid of 746 00:34:05,800 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 4: the fish. Is it the fish or is it the dairy. 747 00:34:07,840 --> 00:34:09,839 Speaker 6: I don't know one of those two. 748 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:12,719 Speaker 4: I reckon getting rid of one of those two, or 749 00:34:12,760 --> 00:34:17,280 Speaker 4: maybe both. But yeah, I wonder whether it's a dairy. 750 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 1: But I think this is that that's just a great question. 751 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: I'm always saying to people. Don't believe me because I 752 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: say something, or you like me or you trust me. 753 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:29,320 Speaker 1: Believe me when you take something for a test drive 754 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: and see what happens. And this is the thing when 755 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,040 Speaker 1: and no disrespect to people in the dairy because my 756 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: old man used to marry marry manager joint called the 757 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:42,160 Speaker 1: Muey Dairying Cooperative Rights. And I grew up in the 758 00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 1: middle of farms and my mum literally grew up on 759 00:34:45,280 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: a dairy farm. 760 00:34:46,400 --> 00:34:47,640 Speaker 3: So and I drink milk. 761 00:34:47,880 --> 00:34:51,439 Speaker 1: But you know, I think the thing is that everybody, 762 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,880 Speaker 1: especially when it comes to things like food or religion 763 00:34:55,120 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: or sport or politics or exercise, everybody lives in an 764 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 1: echo chamber and people are just, you know, immersed in 765 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,160 Speaker 1: this thing called confirmation bias, which means I'm not going 766 00:35:07,239 --> 00:35:09,880 Speaker 1: to listen to Dave Hughes because he doesn't fucking think. 767 00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 3: Like I think. Hugh Hughes doesn't agree with. 768 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:16,680 Speaker 1: Me, so he's on Twitter knows all no, But that's 769 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. 770 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:19,439 Speaker 6: You can't like. 771 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 3: This is this is the part of personal growth and 772 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 3: consciousness and self awareness is to recognize your own prejudice 773 00:35:28,320 --> 00:35:31,600 Speaker 3: and bias and go, look, this is what I think. 774 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,640 Speaker 3: But I could be wrong. The problem is that but 775 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 3: I could be wrong. Is never there. Everybody everybody is one. 776 00:35:39,360 --> 00:35:40,680 Speaker 3: I was talking to a guy the other. 777 00:35:40,560 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 1: Day about such an issue and he was saying, emphatically, 778 00:35:45,600 --> 00:35:46,520 Speaker 1: this is how it is. 779 00:35:47,360 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 3: And I said, so, what you're telling me. 780 00:35:51,360 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 1: Is that everybody in the world that doesn't agree with 781 00:35:55,480 --> 00:36:00,240 Speaker 1: you on this, everybody is wrong. Everybody who doesn't think 782 00:36:00,440 --> 00:36:01,399 Speaker 1: like you in the. 783 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:02,280 Speaker 3: World is wrong. 784 00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 1: And he didn't want to own up to that, but 785 00:36:04,520 --> 00:36:06,840 Speaker 1: that's what he's saying. And I'm saying, you know, like 786 00:36:06,920 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 1: even with me, and I've seen a lot, done a lot, 787 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 1: worked with tens of thousands of humans, educated myself a lot, 788 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:18,840 Speaker 1: worked in the space. You know, I owned multiple gyms, 789 00:36:18,880 --> 00:36:21,440 Speaker 1: all that shit, there's still way more that I don't 790 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:25,120 Speaker 1: know than I do. And everything's an evolution and some 791 00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:27,000 Speaker 1: of the things I used to firmly hold on to 792 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 1: as truth or belief or knowledge or science. Ten years 793 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 1: ago I've now let go of because I realized that 794 00:36:35,719 --> 00:36:37,800 Speaker 1: my thinking or my belief was flawed. 795 00:36:38,520 --> 00:36:40,839 Speaker 3: So if there's no kind of. 796 00:36:41,040 --> 00:36:46,680 Speaker 1: Flexibility in our ideology or our beliefs, we make ourselves unteachable. 797 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 1: And if you're unteachable, that's fucking terrifying. 798 00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, open minded. We've got to be open minded. We yes, 799 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:55,160 Speaker 4: we've got to. You've got to be able to listen 800 00:36:55,160 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 4: to other opinions and not just just just just dismiss 801 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,279 Speaker 4: them straight away out of hand and then go, I'm 802 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 4: never listening to that person again because they had that opinion. 803 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:06,439 Speaker 4: It's just no one is going to learn that way. 804 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 4: He just yeah, absolutely. 805 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:10,799 Speaker 1: I want to take a left turn, as I do. 806 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:14,239 Speaker 1: And so you get an opportunity to sit one on 807 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:16,120 Speaker 1: one with the Deli Alama, one of two or three 808 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:18,640 Speaker 1: people in Australia at the time. I think that got 809 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 1: that opportunity. And your big fucking question is whether or 810 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,120 Speaker 1: not i'll bless your football club. 811 00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,080 Speaker 4: But his answer was great because he said I would, 812 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 4: I will, and bet it won't help. That's what he said, 813 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,040 Speaker 4: and he was right, he did, and it didn't help. 814 00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 4: It still hadn't come good. 815 00:37:36,320 --> 00:37:37,959 Speaker 3: How long did you get to sit with him? 816 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:39,399 Speaker 6: I've made have. 817 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:41,879 Speaker 4: Been ten minutes maybe, but you know, I did feel 818 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,360 Speaker 4: a connection and I love, you know what, I'm the 819 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:47,920 Speaker 4: Buddhist way, I think generally is a good way because 820 00:37:48,680 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 4: just to see the smile and the laugh on their 821 00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,919 Speaker 4: leader makes that sort of part. 822 00:37:54,040 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 6: That's part of my philosophy as well. 823 00:37:55,600 --> 00:37:58,640 Speaker 4: It's like, you know, you feel like he sees the 824 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 4: ridiculousness of life life and he's able to laugh at it, 825 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 4: and that's always what I want to be able to do. 826 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:09,480 Speaker 6: So yeah, I'm getting deeper. I really am starting. 827 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:12,480 Speaker 4: I'm annoying people about this, but I've gone into meditation 828 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 4: twice a day now and that's only a recent thing. 829 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:19,319 Speaker 4: But I'm absolutely loving it. I'm just morning and night 830 00:38:20,080 --> 00:38:23,760 Speaker 4: set it in twenty minutes a time. It's a again. 831 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:25,240 Speaker 4: You know, I want to go back to the Netflix, 832 00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 4: I go, but this is I think this is a 833 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:28,960 Speaker 4: game changer for me. I've banned on about it. I 834 00:38:29,000 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 4: was band interest in Buddhis philosophy since I was at 835 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:34,399 Speaker 4: in my early twenties, you know, over almost three decades ago. 836 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,440 Speaker 4: But I'm really starting to invest in it now. Just 837 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:41,640 Speaker 4: with myself and I'm feeling the benefits. 838 00:38:41,719 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 6: I really am. 839 00:38:42,880 --> 00:38:47,080 Speaker 4: I just quiet, Just find the quiet, get behind the noise, 840 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,440 Speaker 4: and it's all noise in your head, is all noise. 841 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:52,560 Speaker 3: If you can manage your mind, I think you can 842 00:38:52,600 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 3: manage your life, you know, because it's it's such or 843 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:57,719 Speaker 3: it can be such. As I said before, when I 844 00:38:57,800 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 3: ask an audience, you know, to put up your hand. 845 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,320 Speaker 3: If you're an overthinker, every hand goes. 846 00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,359 Speaker 1: Up, and then go, well, let's talk about that, and 847 00:39:04,440 --> 00:39:05,719 Speaker 1: who wants to be an overthinker? 848 00:39:05,760 --> 00:39:07,719 Speaker 3: Will nobody? Who is everybody? 849 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:12,239 Speaker 1: So you know, generally the root of overthinking, the underlying 850 00:39:12,320 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 1: causes fear. 851 00:39:13,160 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 3: So let's talk about the fear of what he is 852 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 3: scared of. I want to be loved and valued, needed. 853 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:21,720 Speaker 1: Accepted, popular, sexy, desirable, and all of that shit is temporary. Anyway, 854 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,239 Speaker 1: I think part of this, let's go deep, husy. Part 855 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:30,560 Speaker 1: of this is really where does where does Hughesy finish? 856 00:39:30,560 --> 00:39:33,240 Speaker 1: And where does Dave hughes start. You know, there's there's 857 00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 1: the not that you're disingenuous, but there's the Huesy persona. 858 00:39:37,120 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 1: There's the public, funny, lovable, fucking alarican. And then there's 859 00:39:41,239 --> 00:39:44,239 Speaker 1: Dave Hughes, the human being, the conscious entity, trying to 860 00:39:44,239 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 1: figure out what the fuck life is about and what 861 00:39:46,680 --> 00:39:49,080 Speaker 1: the fuck you're about in the middle of that life. 862 00:39:49,200 --> 00:39:52,480 Speaker 1: You know, when we live in this duality of existence, 863 00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 1: which is the external world, situation, circumstance, environment, are the 864 00:39:56,280 --> 00:40:00,759 Speaker 1: humans Telly Radio stand up all these extern all stimuli 865 00:40:00,840 --> 00:40:04,600 Speaker 1: and experiences, But where we live is internally. Where we 866 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:06,680 Speaker 1: live is in our thoughts and our values and our 867 00:40:06,719 --> 00:40:10,120 Speaker 1: beliefs and our love and our compassion. And so there's 868 00:40:10,160 --> 00:40:13,680 Speaker 1: this concurrent existence, this duality, and trying to figure out 869 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:16,880 Speaker 1: where does the external stop and where does my internal 870 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:17,480 Speaker 1: world start? 871 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 3: And what does that look like? 872 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:24,239 Speaker 1: And where does where does Dave's stuff finish? Where does 873 00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 1: day's brand and business and reputation and house and money 874 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,879 Speaker 1: and all that stuff which is not bad or good, 875 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:34,959 Speaker 1: it's just stuff. Where does that finish? And where does 876 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,840 Speaker 1: Dave start? And where does Dave get his sense of 877 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:38,839 Speaker 1: self from? 878 00:40:39,280 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 4: Well, I mean I've got to the point where, you know, 879 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,760 Speaker 4: I know what you're talking about external internal, but actually 880 00:40:44,800 --> 00:40:46,239 Speaker 4: it is all internal. 881 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:47,759 Speaker 6: Like there's no external. 882 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 4: We create our all, We create everything. There's nothing created 883 00:40:55,000 --> 00:41:00,280 Speaker 4: outside our own brains. It's all inside there, and everything 884 00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:02,839 Speaker 4: else is an illusional insides, an illusionble. I know I'm 885 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 4: certainly getting a bit, but it's like it is all noise. 886 00:41:07,360 --> 00:41:10,800 Speaker 4: Everything is noise created by ourselves. No one else creates 887 00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:15,680 Speaker 4: the noise. We create every single moment of our reality. 888 00:41:16,120 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 4: No one else creates it. No one creates my reality 889 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:23,000 Speaker 4: I do. No one creates anyone's reality except themselves. 890 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:26,360 Speaker 6: And that is what. Once you realize that, you go, wow, 891 00:41:26,520 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 6: it's everything. It's all up to me. 892 00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:29,399 Speaker 3: That's right. 893 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:32,680 Speaker 4: No no other entity makes and it makes a choice. 894 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 6: I make every choice, and that's it. 895 00:41:36,040 --> 00:41:38,520 Speaker 4: And what I want to do is get beyond even that, 896 00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 4: in which I've started to do through this focus of 897 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:47,600 Speaker 4: just living in the moment and realizing it's all noise in. 898 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 6: My head, created by no one else. 899 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:52,200 Speaker 4: I decide how loud the volume is or how low 900 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:54,719 Speaker 4: the volume is. No one else can decide for me. 901 00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 4: No one else can do it for me. I have 902 00:41:56,080 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 4: to do it for myself. And I'm turning down the 903 00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 4: volume and enjoying life much more by doing that. And 904 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:09,920 Speaker 4: it's like I'm not worrying. I'm worrying much less about 905 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:15,479 Speaker 4: the bullshit, which is comparing yourself to others the whole time. 906 00:42:15,560 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 6: The ego I've been. 907 00:42:18,040 --> 00:42:20,480 Speaker 4: I've been a prisoner of my own ego for a 908 00:42:20,520 --> 00:42:24,000 Speaker 4: long time. And maybe it's it's meant that I've got 909 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 4: to where I'm at. 910 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,719 Speaker 6: I don't know. But it's not enjoyable to do that. 911 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:29,879 Speaker 6: I much prefer just to look at. 912 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:34,279 Speaker 4: A tree and go, Wow, that's amazing. And when you're 913 00:42:34,360 --> 00:42:37,799 Speaker 4: quiet in your mind and you work on it constantly, 914 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 4: and you've got to make it a practice, and I 915 00:42:40,040 --> 00:42:42,280 Speaker 4: think it's going to make it a lifetime of practice. 916 00:42:43,080 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 6: Life becomes so much more enjoyable, you know. 917 00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 4: Even just making the school lunches every morning, which I 918 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 4: do because my wife is a teacher and she goes 919 00:42:49,960 --> 00:42:52,560 Speaker 4: to school and I make the lunches, which is just 920 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 4: a tedious job of just drudgery of day after day. 921 00:42:56,640 --> 00:43:00,279 Speaker 4: Once you turn your attitude around and go quiet, it 922 00:43:00,360 --> 00:43:04,439 Speaker 4: becomes a nice moment and it's yeah, I'm really into 923 00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:06,560 Speaker 4: this at the moment, and I hope I continue. 924 00:43:06,920 --> 00:43:08,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, No, I love it. It's the. 925 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, the separation of the internal and the external. And 926 00:43:13,560 --> 00:43:16,120 Speaker 1: like one of the challenges for us is that we 927 00:43:16,200 --> 00:43:19,840 Speaker 1: grow up in a collective culture and message that says 928 00:43:21,520 --> 00:43:23,880 Speaker 1: to an extent, success is about what you have and 929 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:25,719 Speaker 1: what you earn, and what you own and what you 930 00:43:25,840 --> 00:43:27,960 Speaker 1: do and what you drive and where you live. And 931 00:43:28,000 --> 00:43:30,440 Speaker 1: that's how people are and it shouldn't be that, but 932 00:43:30,480 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: that is how people are evaluated. And as you I 933 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:37,040 Speaker 1: talk about the subjective nature of being human, and one 934 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 1: of the really easy to understand explanations is, you know, 935 00:43:41,560 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: we might have ten thousand people listen to this episode, 936 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 1: and although they're all getting the exact same message, with 937 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:51,359 Speaker 1: the same intent from the same people, probably no one 938 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:54,799 Speaker 1: is having an identical experience of this moment in time, 939 00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:57,799 Speaker 1: or this podcast or this Dave Hughes experience. No one's 940 00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,279 Speaker 1: having an identical experience to anyone else because we are 941 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:04,359 Speaker 1: the creators of our experience. We are the creators of 942 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 1: our reality. 943 00:44:05,880 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 4: We created all, We created all. And that's that's the 944 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:14,239 Speaker 4: powerful message that I've sort of realized recently. There's no 945 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 4: one else creating my reality. I'm doing it myself, and 946 00:44:17,000 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 4: it's my decisions, my decisions. 947 00:44:19,440 --> 00:44:20,520 Speaker 6: Every moment of the day. 948 00:44:20,640 --> 00:44:24,120 Speaker 4: I make the decision as to what I'm going to 949 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:27,920 Speaker 4: think and what I'm going to dwell on or not 950 00:44:28,000 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 4: dwell on. No one else is making them for me, 951 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:33,919 Speaker 4: and it's yeah, it's but I mean, I'm not even 952 00:44:33,920 --> 00:44:36,919 Speaker 4: trying to consciously now make say I'm good or I'm great, 953 00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 4: or I'm funny or I'm you know whatever, just. 954 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:42,760 Speaker 6: Go beyond that. I don't even need to. And it's funny. 955 00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 4: The more that I quieten down, the more other people 956 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,279 Speaker 4: are saying nice things to me. It's because I'm not 957 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 4: walking around desperate for attention. But it doesn't matter that 958 00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 4: they're saying nice things because I think I don't even 959 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 4: need them to say nice things anymore. I really, you know, 960 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:02,239 Speaker 4: I'm not perfect, but I'm getting better at it, you know, 961 00:45:02,320 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 4: and it's lovely. 962 00:45:04,600 --> 00:45:04,959 Speaker 3: I think. 963 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, it really comes down to awareness of self. And 964 00:45:09,440 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 1: I talk about my numerous shortcomings, but you know, ego 965 00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 1: and self esteem stuff and the need for approval. And 966 00:45:17,640 --> 00:45:19,320 Speaker 1: you know, when I was a kid, I was this Morbley. 967 00:45:19,440 --> 00:45:21,160 Speaker 1: I was the fattest kid in my school. My name 968 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 1: at school was Jumbo. You know, all this bullshit that 969 00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 1: you carry with you and and even even when you 970 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:33,239 Speaker 1: succeed in inverted commas to a degree, it took a 971 00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:36,200 Speaker 1: long time for me. Like I owned, I had five 972 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:39,200 Speaker 1: different businesses and one hundred staff when I was thirty 973 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:40,920 Speaker 1: years old and I was making lots of dough in. 974 00:45:40,960 --> 00:45:41,600 Speaker 3: Life was good. 975 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:43,440 Speaker 1: But in the middle of all of that, I was 976 00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 1: still a fuck with I was still anxious, I was 977 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:48,799 Speaker 1: still had low self esteem. I still couldn't get enough, 978 00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:51,800 Speaker 1: or have enough, or get enough. Attentional, We'll never. 979 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 4: Get We'll never get enough. When you need to get enough, 980 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 4: You'll never get enough. There'll always be people better than you, 981 00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 4: richer than you, stronger than you, farther than you. You know, 982 00:46:02,440 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 4: just there's never going to be enough. 983 00:46:05,040 --> 00:46:07,480 Speaker 1: Do you think part of the awareness or part of 984 00:46:07,239 --> 00:46:09,880 Speaker 1: the trigger for this for you, because it was for me, 985 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:15,000 Speaker 1: was being around people who are successful in inverted commas, 986 00:46:16,040 --> 00:46:18,600 Speaker 1: who in the middle of all of their shiny existence, 987 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: their Hollywood like existence, which from the outside looking and 988 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:24,560 Speaker 1: they were killing it. But when you get to know 989 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 1: them beyond that. So many of my clients over the 990 00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:31,160 Speaker 1: years that I work with were super duper wealthy and successful, 991 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 1: but simultaneously anxious and depressed and insecure and exhausted and physically, mentally, 992 00:46:37,880 --> 00:46:41,080 Speaker 1: emotionally and spiritually bankrupt. And you go from the outside 993 00:46:41,160 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 1: like what you would see externally was not at all 994 00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,759 Speaker 1: any indication of what was happening internally. 995 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 4: Absolutely, you'd see very successful people who were bitter and 996 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,080 Speaker 4: jowous and just aren'nhappy. 997 00:46:54,400 --> 00:46:56,279 Speaker 6: And it's like, what is the point. 998 00:46:56,840 --> 00:47:01,120 Speaker 4: Honestly, I look at some of the big example that 999 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:06,080 Speaker 4: is James Packer, who's, like you know, was Australia's richest men. 1000 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,759 Speaker 4: But if you if you met James, I did a 1001 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:11,719 Speaker 4: few times, you just came across as so insecure and 1002 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:15,719 Speaker 4: so just you could see how fragile his ego was. 1003 00:47:15,760 --> 00:47:17,800 Speaker 4: And you could, you know, you could from my brief 1004 00:47:17,800 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 4: and caounters with James Packer, I to hear that he 1005 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:23,319 Speaker 4: had problems, you know, down the track was just so 1006 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 4: evident because of the ego that was just constantly needed 1007 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:31,400 Speaker 4: to be fed, and it's just it was never going 1008 00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:35,760 Speaker 4: to end well.
