Speaker 2: What is your advice to Center Cruz. I'll take it

32
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,600
Speaker 2: as well, because you do a lot of very interesting

33
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 2: things to get in shape.

34
00:01:25,959 --> 00:01:29,080
Speaker 4: Well, how old are you, Senator fifty five? There you go,

35
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,959
Speaker 4: we're the same age. So basically the first thing you

36
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,399
Speaker 4: do is start get on a Keto diet. It's really

37
00:01:36,480 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 4: easy to do, especially when you travel. Start getting into

38
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 4: Intermitte fasting, which will literally clears all the brain flog

39
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:48,520
Speaker 4: you have and it gives you more energy. Believe it

40
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 4: or not. Eating less gives you more energy. And then

41
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,320
Speaker 4: just just get on a modest workout program.

42
00:01:55,520 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: Uh.

43
00:01:55,880 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 4: You know, when you travel and you stay at hotels,

44
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:00,640
Speaker 4: always have a gym. What I would what I would

45
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 4: advise you to do is find a trainer that you

46
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,480
Speaker 4: can travel with. There's two things I don't go anywhere

47
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,880
Speaker 4: without my trainer and my cold plunge. I have my

48
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,200
Speaker 4: cold plunge everywhere.

49
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: And how big is you're playing. I'm just curious asking

50
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: for a friend.

51
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 4: Well, no, So what I do is if we go

52
00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 4: to the UFC, it goes on trucks that that that

53
00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:20,760
Speaker 4: get there before we do. But I have all the

54
00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 4: hotels dialed in and they figure out a local coal

55
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 4: plunge to put inside my hotel room.

56
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:28,399
Speaker 1: Have you ever done a cold punch? Have you ever

57
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: done this?

58
00:02:29,639 --> 00:02:32,360
Speaker 3: I have to admit I'm not a big fan of cold.

59
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:36,560
Speaker 3: I like, but I'm not a big colt. So you

60
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: bring a cold plunge like literally with you.

61
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,639
Speaker 4: Yeah. So for UFC events, we have the col plunge

62
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,600
Speaker 4: on the truck. But when I travel, like I'll be

63
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,440
Speaker 4: in London all next week, I'll have a cold plunge

64
00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 4: in my room all next week, and I do it

65
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 4: every day. It's like for some people who have to

66
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 4: get up and have coffee, that's like my coffee. And

67
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 4: the great thing about cold in the morning.

68
00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,079
Speaker 3: Typically as soon as you.

69
00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 4: Get up it only takes three minutes, but when you

70
00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 4: first start doing it, it takes like thirty three minutes

71
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:04,519
Speaker 4: because you stare at it for thirty minutes and you

72
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:06,640
Speaker 4: start telling yourself it would have been over if I

73
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 4: just would have done it already.

74
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,760
Speaker 1: But in other words, it's a form of torture, is

75
00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:10,520
Speaker 1: what you're telling us.

76
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 2: They forced us to do it back in college after

77
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 2: training sessions, and I've never done it since college. Center

78
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 2: it's I hate it. I just want to be very clear.

79
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,240
Speaker 2: I hate the fact data that you travel with. It

80
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: is insane to me.

81
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 1: I love this.

82
00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 3: So how cold do you do? How cold do you

83
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 3: have the.

84
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 4: Water fifty degrees? You do three minutes at fifty degrees

85
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,359
Speaker 4: And actually it's a form of accomplishment, like as soon

86
00:03:32,400 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 4: as you finish that in the morning, you've already accomplished

87
00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 4: something that most people will not that day. But how

88
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 4: it makes you feel the rest of the day is

89
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:42,440
Speaker 4: absolutely addicting.

90
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 3: So what are the benefits? What does it do for you?

91
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,720
Speaker 4: It gets rid of the inflammation in your body. And

92
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 4: at fifty five years old, doing all the traveling, you're

93
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 4: doing stress this, that, and it gets rid of the inflammation.

94
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,120
Speaker 4: And there's nothing better than after you fly somewhere getting

95
00:03:58,160 --> 00:03:59,640
Speaker 4: into a cold plunge for three minutes.

96
00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:03,320
Speaker 2: It's the So after you fly, it just just reset

97
00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 2: you or what.

98
00:04:04,160 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 4: And it gets rid of all the inflammation in your body.

99
00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 4: Now you feel puffy. I mean, if you take your

100
00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:10,040
Speaker 4: shoes off on a flight, when you land, putting your

101
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 4: shoes back on, your shoes are tighter. Everything's gets rid

102
00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 4: of all of that.

103
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 3: And so so you do keto, are you doing mostly meat?

104
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,279
Speaker 3: You're doing veggies too, like like like what are you

105
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,240
Speaker 3: put in the diet? No?

106
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 4: So in keto, what you try to do is you

107
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 4: try to limit the only fruit. You can eat berries,

108
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 4: any any kind of berry. But yeah, you eat, you

109
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 4: eat meat, steaks, chicken, you can eat fish. You know,

110
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 4: there's tons of things you can eat. You just can't

111
00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,920
Speaker 4: have any of the sides. You stay away from all

112
00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 4: the sides.

113
00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 2: It's an average day of meals for you, like a

114
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:42,200
Speaker 2: normal day, not eating out nice meal at night like

115
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 2: you know VIP event type thing.

116
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 4: It's four o'clock here, I haven't eaten yet, so I eat.

117
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,720
Speaker 4: I go all day without eating, and then.

118
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 1: I'll man fasting like a whole day.

119
00:04:51,240 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, I eat dinner at night.

120
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 3: So is that your typical intermittent fast is that you

121
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,039
Speaker 3: just skip breakfast at lunch?

122
00:04:57,320 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 4: Yep, exactly.

123
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 3: And even who does that also has the same schedule

124
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:01,920
Speaker 3: as herschel walker.

125
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, makes sense.

126
00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,000
Speaker 3: And so what I was campaigning in Georgia with Herschel,

127
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 3: he just he doesn't do lunch, doesn't do breakfast. And

128
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,039
Speaker 3: then and you know Herschel's in great shape, obviously one

129
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,960
Speaker 3: of the greatest athletes ever live. But it's interesting he

130
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 3: does the skip breakfast lunch too.

131
00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,480
Speaker 4: And here's the thing that's interesting is, uh, how it

132
00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:25,080
Speaker 4: clears your mind and how much sharper you are. Brain

133
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:28,640
Speaker 4: fog is gone, and it's it's pretty amazing. I'm telling you,

134
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 4: I gotta I gotta figure out. I'm gonna try to

135
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 4: figure out how to get you dialed in and get

136
00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 4: some people around you. Once I get you started, you

137
00:05:36,400 --> 00:05:39,440
Speaker 4: will become addicted to the feeling of it and you'll

138
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:41,920
Speaker 4: rip the weight off like this, all right, I'm gonna

139
00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:43,280
Speaker 4: help you accomplish this this year.

140
00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,760
Speaker 3: Seven And now you've credited the biologist Gary Breca with

141
00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 3: helping you on this. And actually my mom who's ninety one,

142
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:54,120
Speaker 3: told me this, and she she wanted me to ask you, like,

143
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 3: like what Gary Breckatt did with it was helpful and

144
00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:58,600
Speaker 3: what you found beneficial.

145
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 4: The thing is would be the Gary. I'm all in

146
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,000
Speaker 4: on the Gary brecking things. So I do the stuff.

147
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:04,839
Speaker 4: So I used to be on a bunch of pills

148
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,440
Speaker 4: that doctors were giving me for blood pressure and a

149
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 4: bunch of other stuff that I really didn't need to

150
00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:13,200
Speaker 4: be on for years. So now all I take are supplements.

151
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:14,960
Speaker 4: So I said how many?

152
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 1: How many? And what do you take?

153
00:06:17,200 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 4: So I was on a bunch of different pills every

154
00:06:19,760 --> 00:06:25,640
Speaker 4: day and I felt horrible, uh, tired, lethargic, and I

155
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 4: real bad. Sleep at me is snoring. You know, when

156
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:29,840
Speaker 4: you go to the doctor, they tell you to put

157
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 4: a seapap mask on, which I could never sleep with.

158
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,880
Speaker 4: It never worked for me. Now I don't have any

159
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 4: of that. I don't have to sleep at me. I

160
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:40,880
Speaker 4: don't snore anymore, and I'm off all meds only on supplements.

161
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 4: And I couldn't tell you right here the supplements that

162
00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:47,160
Speaker 4: I'm on. But uh, first of all, what they would

163
00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,800
Speaker 4: do is I'm gonna have I'm going to reach out

164
00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,279
Speaker 4: to the Senator and I'm gonna have them come to

165
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:54,800
Speaker 4: a blood test on you, and then they'll they'll go

166
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 4: through and tell you everything that you need to be

167
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,720
Speaker 4: on based on your blood work. And then and then

168
00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 4: once you get that and they give you a plan

169
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 4: and he told me if you can, if you give

170
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 4: me twelve weeks, I'll change your whole life. It doesn't

171
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:14,080
Speaker 4: take twelve weeks, it takes like three. After like three weeks,

172
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:16,440
Speaker 4: you start feeling better, and you start feeling and you

173
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 4: start to become really addicted to it.

174
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:21,440
Speaker 2: All right, let me ask you an inter minute fasting

175
00:07:21,440 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 2: when you go all day like traditionally, if center Cruise

176
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: and I didn't eat today, I'd get that.

177
00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 1: I would say, call it brain frog.

178
00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 2: I'd get that kind of the shake saying where I

179
00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:35,440
Speaker 2: need something like the idea of not eating and then

180
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 2: having like more focus. Is there a transition period there,

181
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 2: because that to me seems like I'm gonna have a headache,

182
00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 2: I'm gonna feel terrible if I don't eat all day.

183
00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 4: Yeah. So what you need to do is hydrate. So

184
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,320
Speaker 4: when you don't eat, you know, I do this thing

185
00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 4: called the seventy two hour water fast where all you

186
00:07:51,720 --> 00:07:55,119
Speaker 4: drink are water and electrolytes for seventy two hours.

187
00:07:55,280 --> 00:07:58,000
Speaker 3: And how often do you do that?

188
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,840
Speaker 4: You do it like three times a year. I do

189
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 4: it three times a year.

190
00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 3: It's the advantage you're doing that.

191
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 4: First of all, your body starts to eat up all

192
00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 4: the dead cells, cancer cells, and literally all the things

193
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,840
Speaker 4: that are really bad for you. This thing that's why

194
00:08:17,880 --> 00:08:19,920
Speaker 4: you do it two or three times a year. Your

195
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 4: body starts to eat up all the dead and bad cells. Now,

196
00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,800
Speaker 4: I'm not a religious person, and I would you know,

197
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 4: I don't even know if I consider myself spiritual. I

198
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:29,960
Speaker 4: don't even know how to explain any of that. The

199
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 4: first time I ever did the seventy two hour fast,

200
00:08:33,240 --> 00:08:35,440
Speaker 4: I started. When I started to get up around sixty

201
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 4: five hours, I was like, ah, this is what people

202
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,920
Speaker 4: talk about spiritual. You know, you're starting to have this

203
00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 4: really euphoric, weird feeling, but you start to get more

204
00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 4: energy and just this unbelievable clarity that you get when

205
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:53,439
Speaker 4: you fast. It really is fascinating.

206
00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,719
Speaker 3: And yes, so I've done forty eight hours, but I've

207
00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 3: not done seventy two.

208
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:58,560
Speaker 4: Okay? And did you drink a lot of water and

209
00:08:58,559 --> 00:08:59,720
Speaker 4: electrolytes while you were doing it?

210
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 3: It wasn't do an electro like just water.

211
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna senator up. When we get done, I'm

212
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:09,079
Speaker 4: gonna get you. I'm gonna get you dialed in, all right, Sata?

213
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:09,760
Speaker 4: What do I want to do?

214
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: Man?

215
00:09:10,040 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 2: And you look way too excited right now. I'm going

216
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:13,839
Speaker 2: to enjoy this, I think more than he is. Are

217
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,839
Speaker 2: we gonna get him cold plunging, We're gonna get him

218
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,199
Speaker 2: not eating an electro like I think this is amazing

219
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 2: and a blood test.

220
00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 3: Well, let me know, but Ben, let me let me

221
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:24,880
Speaker 3: be clear that the fasting is more likely to happen

222
00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,520
Speaker 3: than the cold plunge. I still have some persuasion on

223
00:09:27,559 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 3: the cold plunch side.

224
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,280
Speaker 4: Ben. Let me be clear. He's going to start out

225
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 4: doing the you know, you get him on the way,

226
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 4: you know, on the road to doing this, and he

227
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,720
Speaker 4: will get into cold plunging, and he will get into

228
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,160
Speaker 4: doing the sauna. You become once you go in and

229
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 4: you start to feel, especially at our age. Man, when

230
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,280
Speaker 4: you hit fifty, I mean, it's a it's a whole

231
00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,640
Speaker 4: nother ballgame when you hit fifty years old. People used

Speaker 4: a fan of both, guys and both were so different

660
00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 4: and both brought something different to the. SPORT i, mean

661
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,040
Speaker 4: when you think about And Senator, cruz we're the same

662
00:30:19,080 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 4: Age That tyson era was. UNBELIEVABLE i mean everybody was

663
00:30:23,960 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 4: into boxing because Of Mike. Tyson it was.

664

666
00:30:32,840 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 3: the first round because he just knock everyone. OUT i,

667
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 3: mean it, was it Was i've never seen anything like.

668
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:42,480
Speaker 4: It it's. True So ali brought something different during his

669
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:46,360
Speaker 4: era And tyson brought something. Different but the boxing is

670
00:30:46,360 --> 00:30:49,480
Speaker 4: where it is today because both of them existed and

671
00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:51,080
Speaker 4: were in the. Sport there's no doubt about.

672
00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 3: It all, right same question about MM a BEST mma

673
00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 3: fighter Ever John?

674
00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:56,560
Speaker 4: Jones?

675
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:57,680
Speaker 1: Really?

676
00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:58,200
Speaker 3: Okay?

677
00:30:58,320 --> 00:30:59,160
Speaker 4: Yeah why?

678
00:30:59,280 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 3: Yeah? Why?

679
00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:03,360
Speaker 4: Good, well one of the things that happened in boxing

680
00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,760
Speaker 4: is that you had all these different sanctioning organizations and

681
00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,320
Speaker 4: all anybody and they all had different champions and different,

682
00:31:09,320 --> 00:31:12,600
Speaker 4: guys and all anybody wanted to do was stay, undefeated

683
00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:15,920
Speaker 4: so they would fight lesser competition to make sure that

684
00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,040
Speaker 4: they got up to twenty five and. Zero and you,

685
00:31:18,080 --> 00:31:22,560
Speaker 4: know IN, mma you go through the, gaunt you fight

686
00:31:22,600 --> 00:31:24,239
Speaker 4: the best of the best all the way to the.

687
00:31:24,240 --> 00:31:27,320
Speaker 4: Top so if you end up with it with a

688
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:30,680
Speaker 4: long career and you are still, undefeated you are the

689
00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:33,640
Speaker 4: greatest of all. Time and that Is John jones and

690
00:31:33,640 --> 00:31:34,120
Speaker 4: many other.

691
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:37,520
Speaker 3: Reasons what about if If John jones is in the

692
00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,760
Speaker 3: ring With, ali who wins that? Fight that's that's kind

693
00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,840
Speaker 3: of a mascular, question, okay because it's the same. Question

694
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,880
Speaker 3: you remember The rocky movie Where rocky Fights Hell cogan

695
00:31:46,920 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 3: and and the wrestler versus the Boxer.

696
00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 4: John. Jones John jones would get, inside he'd grab him

697
00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 4: and he would rip them.

698
00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,360
Speaker 2: Apart, yes have you ever seen a pro athlete not

699

988
00:46:26,239 --> 00:46:28,239
Speaker 4: rocky one, happened and then all the other ones, by

989
00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:31,520
Speaker 4: you didn't see a place where actually the guy who

990
00:46:31,640 --> 00:46:34,960
Speaker 4: is the hero of the movie is gonna, lose uh the,

991
00:46:35,040 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 4: fight you, know and obviously the major success the movie

992
00:46:40,320 --> 00:46:43,000
Speaker 4: And stallone had coming out of, that and and the

993
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:46,000
Speaker 4: story of stallone and and how he built the. MOVIE

994
00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,160
Speaker 4: i don't, KNOW i guess that's. It rocky one is.

995
00:46:48,200 --> 00:46:51,480
Speaker 4: Great i'm not Diminishing rocky. ONE i just Think rocky

996
00:46:51,520 --> 00:46:51,840
Speaker 4: three is.

997
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:56,680
Speaker 3: BETTER i gotta say. Two, WELL i gotta say it

998
00:46:57,640 --> 00:47:00,040
Speaker 3: BECAUSE i like. Winning rocky one is pretty. Awesome but

999
00:47:00,320 --> 00:47:03,520
Speaker 3: then he, loses And rocky two he comes, back he

1000
00:47:03,640 --> 00:47:06,239
Speaker 3: gets it. Done it's three is awesome, Too SO i

1001
00:47:06,520 --> 00:47:08,759
Speaker 3: mean it's a hard but Like rocky two is when

1002
00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:12,719
Speaker 3: he like finishes the job and gets it. Done. Uh

1003
00:47:12,880 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 3: but you, KNOW i got to, say one of the

1004
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 3: things that's fun about the Whole rocky you, know and

1005
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:21,880
Speaker 3: stallone obviously created the character and the Whole rocky saga

1006
00:47:22,239 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 3: actually think has a lot in common With President trump

1007
00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:28,479
Speaker 3: because if you look At Rocky, balboa you, know he's

1008
00:47:28,600 --> 00:47:33,480
Speaker 3: not the fastest, hitter he's not the strongest. Hitter he

1009
00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:38,360
Speaker 3: just keeps frigging. Going he's like The terminator no. MATTER i,

1010
00:47:38,400 --> 00:47:41,120
Speaker 3: mean it's nothing stops, him and he just goes and

1011
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 3: goes and. Goes and that's very Much Donald. Trump you.

1012
00:47:44,000 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 3: Know Donald trump used to say he no president has

1013
00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,120
Speaker 3: been as persecuted as he, Was AND i got to

1014
00:47:49,120 --> 00:47:50,800
Speaker 3: say a few years, AGO i wasn't sure that was.

1015
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:54,480
Speaker 3: True and then the indictments come and they try to

1016
00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:57,640
Speaker 3: bankrupt him and bankrupt his, kids and it is now clearly.

1017
00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:02,280
Speaker 3: True it's unequivocally and there are very few human beings

1018
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:05,799
Speaker 3: who could have gone through What trump went. Through when

1019
00:48:05,840 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 3: The democrats were trying to do everything they could to

1020
00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:11,480
Speaker 3: stop his, reelection and it reminds me Of Rocky balboa

1021
00:48:11,560 --> 00:48:13,759
Speaker 3: that no matter how many times they hit, him he

1022
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:14,720
Speaker 3: just keeps.

1023
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,399
Speaker 4: Coming the most resilient human being THAT i have ever

1024
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:20,759
Speaker 4: met in my. Life, yeah and as his, friend you,

1025
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,279
