Speaker 1: Welcome to Good Calls with Dean Blandino, a production of
Speaker 1: I Her Radio. Hey, what's up? Dean Blandino? Another episode
Speaker 1: of Good Call. As always, I'm joined remotely by my
Speaker 1: pursuits there, Travis Danson, Travis, what's up? Are you? Indeed?
Speaker 1: I'm good. I'm good. And as always on audio working overtime,
Speaker 1: Joe Madrid's with sub show. What's going on? What's going on?
Speaker 1: That's a that's a voting question. Um, so we got,
Speaker 1: you know, good show today. We've got a special gas
Speaker 1: Shane Space and he's gonna join us in the in
Speaker 1: the second segment. But I do want to kind of
Speaker 1: the world. There's a lot of craziness going on in
Speaker 1: the world, and I want to preface the show by saying,
Speaker 1: we we recognize the gravity of the situation, and we
Speaker 1: recognize that this is sior us and we're dealing with
Speaker 1: with life and death. But you know, don't we still
Speaker 1: have to maintain our sense of humor, and we're gonna
Speaker 1: joke and we're gonna have fun as well, because that's
Speaker 1: how sometimes I know, that's how I deal with serious situations,
Speaker 1: try to maintain a sense of humor. So please, you know,
Speaker 1: just refer back to the beginning of the show. If
Speaker 1: if we say something that you might think is a
Speaker 1: little bit um offensive, but you know, we we get it.
Speaker 1: And then we are even doing our part. We're social distancing, right,
Speaker 1: We're doing the show remotely. We are Travis is at home,
Speaker 1: Joe is at home. I'm at home. And this is
Speaker 1: kind of the new reality right now with with what's
Speaker 1: happening in the world today, and I think it's it's necessary.
Speaker 1: L A. Los Angeles says of midnight on on Sunday,
Speaker 1: had they basically all bars, restaurants, Jim's clothes take out only. Um,
Speaker 1: this is you know, if I feel we're gonna have
Speaker 1: to the world and at least you know, our country
Speaker 1: is gonna have to. We're gonna have to shut down
Speaker 1: for a little bit. If this thing is gonna We're
Speaker 1: gonna get a hold on this thing and get better. Um.
Speaker 1: But it's definitely a changed everybody's daily routine. And I
Speaker 1: know that's tough, but this is this is the deal
Speaker 1: right now, and uh, you know, it's just kind of
Speaker 1: a crazy, crazy time at this point. Definitely. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't even know how to follow up with that.
Speaker 1: It's like I've been at home for now, you know,
Speaker 1: a week straight. I went to the beach yesterday, which
Speaker 1: you know, you don't talk to anybody, and it's kind
Speaker 1: of hard to go outside of you. I'm with my
Speaker 1: daughter and she wants to pet the dog and talk
Speaker 1: to the neighbor, and it's like you want to just
Speaker 1: kind of keep your distance and it, and it really
Speaker 1: feels kind of it feels strange. You feel like if
Speaker 1: you feel bad doing it, you know, I know, you know, Travis,
Speaker 1: I think I have the perfect way of following it
Speaker 1: up like this. That nice work team, good speech. I'm
Speaker 1: all over the soundboard after last week, buddy, Oh you
Speaker 1: made some you made some adjustments the soundboard. You're finally
Speaker 1: taking your job as audio guys seriously. You know, I
Speaker 1: take everything seriously because you had because you had all this,
Speaker 1: you had a lot of ettic free time at home
Speaker 1: because you cann't go out. Until now you're finally doing
Speaker 1: your job correctly. They listen, how funny that is. It
Speaker 1: takes to take the pandemic for you to be a
Speaker 1: good audio guy, because that's that's what you're saying, basically, Well,
Speaker 1: I mean that's that's the thing though, something like this
Speaker 1: will bring out good and everything. You know, they will
Speaker 1: find ways to make the world better. Statement like, hey guys,
Speaker 1: we're all gonna get together and we're gonna together and
Speaker 1: we're gonna be better off after this is all done.
Speaker 1: This is gonna make us better. It is so when
Speaker 1: you think about it. So I think about like I
Speaker 1: think about our kids forty years from now, telling their kids,
Speaker 1: you know, just forget about like the world, but just
Speaker 1: like sports, the sports landscape. This I've never is anything
Speaker 1: like this in my life. And they're gonna be telling
Speaker 1: their kids. Oh, the n c A tournament, I remember
Speaker 1: when it was canceled, When when the NBA shut down,
Speaker 1: When the NHL shut down, when the when the NFL,
Speaker 1: the draft, all of these things like this is unprecedented.
Speaker 1: Sports are supposed to be the XL shut down. The
Speaker 1: thing is, yeah, more or forty years into the XFL
Speaker 1: and it's the greatest football league of all time. No
Speaker 1: one's gonna believe that. But here's the thing. Sports are
Speaker 1: supposed to be our distractions from things like this, and
Speaker 1: now you're don't even we don't even have sports. So
Speaker 1: it's like Netflix is probably crushing it right now. Hulu.
Speaker 1: I mean TV. When when did you ever have a
Speaker 1: great excuse to sit home and play video games and
Speaker 1: watch TV? And this is like a lot of people,
Speaker 1: that's what they're doing. It's crazy. It's absolutely crazy. I
Speaker 1: just re up my my Xbox Live membership started murking
Speaker 1: kids again, well Gamy playing Call of Duty hop on
Speaker 1: Yeah System. I watched, Uh, I rewatched It's it's because
Speaker 1: the new season is coming out in April April. FX
Speaker 1: What We Do in the Shadows I rewatched the entire
Speaker 1: first season. It's one of the best shows. Um, go
Speaker 1: watch What We Do in the Shadows. It's it's hilarious.
Speaker 1: I try to watch the show. It's called Daves. Have
Speaker 1: you heard it though? I went on billboards for that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: guys coming out of the front of the guy's boxer
Speaker 1: shorts on the billboard. Yeah, he's a I watched. I
Speaker 1: had to stop after the third episode, like I wanted
Speaker 1: to give it a chance, and I kind of like,
Speaker 1: I was like, all right, after the first episode. It's
Speaker 1: not bad. It's about like this this white Jewish guy
Speaker 1: that's a rapper and he's kind of like an ironic
Speaker 1: rapper and he's trying to like go mainstream and I
Speaker 1: got to the third episode, I couldn't do it anymore.
Speaker 1: Like it's I would make your own mind up. But
Speaker 1: I just the third the third episode just kind of
Speaker 1: killed this thing. I just started watching Love Is Blind. Dude,
Speaker 1: forget Yeah, I've heard about that. I've heard about that.
Speaker 1: Don't don't please. How about this new Netflix ranking thing
Speaker 1: They're they're putting rankings on those watch stuff like that's
Speaker 1: always been in the high in the top thing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I Love is Blind is where they you people get
Speaker 1: after six days. It's the most ridiculous. But you don't
Speaker 1: see each other. You have to you have to talk,
Speaker 1: and you learn about the person without actually seeing them,
Speaker 1: and then the guy proposes and then they meet for
Speaker 1: the for like the first time in person in terms
Speaker 1: of seeing each other, and then they decide. Obviously it
Speaker 1: doesn't all go smoothly, but I might watch it just
Speaker 1: because Nick was Shay is the host. I'm a big
Speaker 1: Nicol Shade fans. Moving right along. It kind of sounds
Speaker 1: like the concept why Jennifer Gardner doesn't want to marry Um,
Speaker 1: the character in the Invention of Lying. If you've seen
Speaker 1: that team with Ricky Gervais, Oh, yes, so, yeah, I did.
Speaker 1: That's a good Yeah, that's true. I watched that Jenner.
Speaker 1: Jennifer Garner is one of the one of the prettiest
Speaker 1: people I've seen in person ever. Like she's when I
Speaker 1: saw her in person, like that the whole with the
Speaker 1: NFL and Draft Day and there was a lot of
Speaker 1: like promotions during that time. And she was at a
Speaker 1: Giants game and I was there and saw her on
Speaker 1: the sideline and had a chance to meet her, and
Speaker 1: she just like stunning. She's she's very very attractive. Um.
Speaker 1: But that said, let's Travis, let's talk a little bit. Okay,
Speaker 1: there was there is sports news the NFL. The league
Speaker 1: year did start. Free agency did start with a bang
Speaker 1: today almost you guys saw the news. But DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 1: I traded to the Arnold for David Johnson. Um. There
Speaker 1: was some draft picks, the Texans spending a fourth round pick,
Speaker 1: I think in Cardinals sending a second round pick and
Speaker 1: a fourth round pick in and the and the Texans
Speaker 1: are picking up Johnson's entire salary. Crazy crazy start the
Speaker 1: free agency. UM in the NFL. That's a big, big
Speaker 1: move involving you know, obviously DeAndre Hopkins is All Pro
Speaker 1: and David Johnson you know, has been an All Pro
Speaker 1: but but has in recent years has been injured and
Speaker 1: kind of you know with UH with with Arizona really
Speaker 1: wasn't utilized that much last year when they got you know,
Speaker 1: kids just Kenyan Drake, but big big trade, big deal,
Speaker 1: you know it. Free agency had started, but the c
Speaker 1: b A was was past. UM talk a little bit
Speaker 1: about that. Travis given some highlights on what the new
Speaker 1: CBA needs to UH to the NFL y to. The
Speaker 1: agreement came through. It's in place for the next eleven seasons.
Speaker 1: Some notable changes to our playoff teams for UM, the
Speaker 1: option to increase the seventeen games in one and to
Speaker 1: increase minimum salaries, UH performance space pay and player revenue.
Speaker 1: And it means that new TV deals will be negotiated
Speaker 1: once we get once we get back to UH to
Speaker 1: playing football. UH sellary capital increase going up another ten
Speaker 1: million roughly from last year up to a point two millions.
Speaker 1: So those are just kind of some of the highlights team.
Speaker 1: You can probably touch on a few more of those
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. I'm interested to hear what the setup
Speaker 1: is gonna be for that. Yeah, well, I think the playoffs,
Speaker 1: they are gonna they are gonna add one team in
Speaker 1: each conference. So that's gonna that's gonna change what our
Speaker 1: playoffs look like. So now to buy, that means that
Speaker 1: means only one team in each conference will get a buy.
Speaker 1: So that means that the number one seed. That's why
Speaker 1: now you know the difference between one and two. While
Speaker 1: while it could be significant if those two teams play
Speaker 1: and the number one gets home, feel now it becomes
Speaker 1: even more significant because the number two seed in each
Speaker 1: conference is no longer going to get a buy and
Speaker 1: that two seed is now going to play this additional
Speaker 1: team that that comes in. And so so this is
Speaker 1: this is a big, big, big change. Now in essence,
Speaker 1: you're creating a seven seed in the conference and two
Speaker 1: will play seven, three will play sixt four will play
Speaker 1: five that first wild card weekend. Um, so that one
Speaker 1: seed is going to be I mean at a at
Speaker 1: the even more of a premium. And but it does
Speaker 1: create another playoff game. Um. That's that's again for the
Speaker 1: networks that want to get an NFL package, that's attractive.
Speaker 1: It's it's a way the NFL can can get more
Speaker 1: money from the networks because obviously NFL games are some
Speaker 1: of the highest rated TV programs. Even regular season and
Speaker 1: postseason games are are significant in terms of ratings. And
Speaker 1: I think that's, uh, it's gonna be something that you know,
Speaker 1: obviously the league uses his leverage in these new TV
Speaker 1: deals that they have to negotiate. Um. You know, you
Speaker 1: think about some of the things that the seventeen game
Speaker 1: season that was probably the biggest sticking points for the players.
Speaker 1: You know, another game that's more wear and tear, um,
Speaker 1: that's more risk for injury. And I think that was
Speaker 1: probably why the vote was so close. I mean, it
Speaker 1: only passed, you know, it was didn't passed by by much,
Speaker 1: you know, nineteen sixty votes like razor thin margin, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: And there was some there was some news that you know,
Speaker 1: some talk that a lot of players, some players wanted
Speaker 1: to change their vote from yes to know um, but
Speaker 1: the the union you know, that was would have been
Speaker 1: against their their biologues. So so it didn't pass by much.
Speaker 1: It had to pass by plus one. It obviously did.
Speaker 1: And and the entire body of players does not have
Speaker 1: to vote, so I don't I think there was only
Speaker 1: seventy five not they only, but of the total population
Speaker 1: vote is so you still have one in four that
Speaker 1: that didn't cast a vote. So who knows what would
Speaker 1: have happened if they would have gotten closer. Um, you
Speaker 1: look at you talk about the revenue split, Uh, players
Speaker 1: are gonna get you know, players are gonna be guaranteed
Speaker 1: forty eight percent of the league's overall revenue in one
Speaker 1: UM that has the ability to go up to eight
Speaker 1: percent to uh you know what they're calling a media
Speaker 1: kicker um in any season that the league plays seventeen games.
Speaker 1: So and those you know, it might not seem like
Speaker 1: a lot, you know, going going up point you know,
Speaker 1: point eight percent, but when you're talking about billions of dollars,
Speaker 1: that's significant. And I think you know the other things
Speaker 1: that that are important to talk about the drug policy
Speaker 1: and uh significant you know, relax a lot of the
Speaker 1: rules in terms of drug testing as it relates to marijuana.
Speaker 1: And I think that's a reflection of what's happened in
Speaker 1: in in the country today in terms of how how
Speaker 1: we look at marijuana and uh and so and and
Speaker 1: testing from marijuana in terms of number of players that
Speaker 1: are subjected to that will decrease and uh, and so
Speaker 1: you're gonna see less and less discipline as it relates
Speaker 1: to marijuana. And then the roster sizes are going to increase,
Speaker 1: so you know your your your NFL roster will go
Speaker 1: from three to fifty five and uh and you're gonna
Speaker 1: laugh for two additional players to be active on game
Speaker 1: day and uh, and the practice squad will go up
Speaker 1: to as many as four teen players per team. So
Speaker 1: so there's gonna be more players on rosters. That's more
Speaker 1: jobs and so that's ultimately a good thing, um for
Speaker 1: for the players that are out there. So it's an
Speaker 1: interesting deal. I know. You know, they always say the
Speaker 1: best deals when they when you're talking about collectively bargaining
Speaker 1: or where neither side is completely happy and they feel
Speaker 1: like they left some things on the table. So I'm
Speaker 1: sure both sides feel like that, but it feels like,
Speaker 1: you know, I think overall, the the NFL p A,
Speaker 1: at least their their leadership and the league I think
Speaker 1: are happy with having a labor peace for for the
Speaker 1: next eleven seasons. Yes, nice to know there won't be
Speaker 1: any lockout. And I saw Tom Brady tweeted at at
Speaker 1: the Morris missed, the head of the NFL p A say,
Speaker 1: nice job D. So he's happy with it. Tom's happy
Speaker 1: with it. You know, if TB twelve is happy, then
Speaker 1: then everyone should be happy, right. I think we're I
Speaker 1: think we're good. I think I think now we can
Speaker 1: now we can all move on both though, UM, it's
Speaker 1: looking less and less like you know that he's gonna
Speaker 1: have uh an opportunity to to leave the Patriots. It
Speaker 1: looks like, you know, a lots of it. A lot
Speaker 1: of talk about Tom, maybe the Niners, the Titans, maybe
Speaker 1: the you know, the Chargers, but it just seems like
Speaker 1: those those opportunities are Titans obviously re up with with
Speaker 1: Panna Hill gave him a big, big contract. Um, the
Speaker 1: Niners said they're sticking with Garoppolo. So I think we're
Speaker 1: gonna see Tom make a a triumphate return to the
Speaker 1: Patriots in the near future. It seems like the most
Speaker 1: likely scenario when it started. So I'm happy to see that.
Speaker 1: I'd let him finish out his career there. I love
Speaker 1: it when I make a point than Travis dis agrees
Speaker 1: with me and his single, his smug, his standard white
Speaker 1: guy way. And you only saw how I was sitting too.
Speaker 1: My hands are like behind my head. And I'm like
Speaker 1: lounge back with my leg up over top of the
Speaker 1: other sitting there just like to like super SWG. It's great.
Speaker 1: I love it. You're also you're way more You're way
Speaker 1: more um, just relaxed when we're not around, Like when
Speaker 1: you're in your own elements, you're so much more relaxed.
Speaker 1: You're so much more just like approachable. You're not, you know,
Speaker 1: a tight I don't know, you're just that intimidating being.
Speaker 1: I can't help um. All right, let's up, let's take
Speaker 1: a break. All right, we're back. I'm a good call
Speaker 1: and decided to bring on our guest this week. This
Speaker 1: is a guy that's that I've had, I've been blessed

Speaker 1: he you know, he's like he's like a great fighter
Speaker 1: like you just like bobbing and weaving and then right back.
Speaker 1: That's it. That's it. So San, how did you, like you,
Speaker 1: how did you get started in martial arts? How do
Speaker 1: you go from you know, just like doing whether you know,
Speaker 1: I know you started doing taekwondo and these other things.
Speaker 1: How do you go from that as like a kid
Speaker 1: to get having two and a half million subscribers on YouTube?
Speaker 1: Like how does that happen? Consistency is the boring answer,
Speaker 1: but it's it's true. I mean, we started filming videos
Speaker 1: before YouTube was out. We started in two thousand four.
Speaker 1: I got into martial arts. My dad was a Philly
Speaker 1: copp and He's like, you gotta do something. You gotta
Speaker 1: play a sport, pick up an instrument, you gotta you
Speaker 1: gotta do something. He was a black beunt in taekwondo,
Speaker 1: so I went to the same master that he had
Speaker 1: trained under, and then just started recording videos. I was,
Speaker 1: you know, boxing in the backyard with my friends and
Speaker 1: just filming some of the techniques that I learned from taekwondo.
Speaker 1: And then uh YouTube came out in two thousand five,
Speaker 1: and we just used that as a place to host
Speaker 1: our videos to save on bandwidth from our website. And
Speaker 1: then uh I checked back a couple of months later
Speaker 1: and we had like eight thousand subscribers and all these
Speaker 1: comments people saying how I helped them fight their depression
Speaker 1: or beat their bully or getting the martial arts. And
Speaker 1: then I really started to see the power of the
Speaker 1: potential and then just stuck with it. That was sixteen
Speaker 1: years ago, you know, I'm I'm really inspired by that, Dean.
Speaker 1: I actually started my own YouTube channel as well. I've
Speaker 1: got thirty seven subscribers, thirty seven the one after thirty six, Joe, Yeah,
Speaker 1: before thirty eight, what is your YouTube channel? I can't
Speaker 1: get my I'm just kidding. I do have thirty It's
Speaker 1: mostly picture videos of my kids, uh fighting in Shane's
Speaker 1: garage or or a gracy, So nobody wants to watch
Speaker 1: Joe does. Joe does in addition to being a great
Speaker 1: audio guy, or like a potentially great audio guy, he
Speaker 1: does like really good video anything and he puts together
Speaker 1: like if we go away or if he goes on
Speaker 1: a trip, and he puts together these videos and he
Speaker 1: actually does a great job. The only problem is he
Speaker 1: uses copyrighted music on some of these videos and they
Speaker 1: get kind of taken down this. Yes, so think you've
Speaker 1: seen you guys train with Shane before Shane. Who do
Speaker 1: you think would win in a fight between Joe and U? Um?
Speaker 1: What are the rules here? I'll break it down. I'll
Speaker 1: break it down for you. Joe. Joe has much better
Speaker 1: kicks like my kicks stuff. Um, I feel like it
Speaker 1: would be a pretty good fight. I feel like my
Speaker 1: cardio might might win the day. At the end of it.
Speaker 1: I think if Joe catches me early, he'll win. If
Speaker 1: I longer agoes, I think I have a better check.
Speaker 1: That's my That's how I look at it. Well. The
Speaker 1: fans want to hear the unbiased opinion. Uh, Dean, Dean's
Speaker 1: name is on the show, so Dean would win. But
Speaker 1: they sparred pretty often and then they come over. We
Speaker 1: usually do workout for you know, fifty minutes and then
Speaker 1: the last ten is a couple of rounds of sparring
Speaker 1: and it's it's even, especially with the boxing. Yeah, when
Speaker 1: when it's just hands, Dean has a shot. Dean's got
Speaker 1: a really good right straight he does. He does um.
Speaker 1: But like you said, I think Joe's just got a
Speaker 1: little bit higher. I Q been doing it a little
Speaker 1: bit longer. His kicks are a little bit better. Dean's
Speaker 1: got good knees and and good front kicks. But I
Speaker 1: no flexibilities an issue. Too much time in the in
Speaker 1: the cube watching football man, you should be stretching on there. Well,
Speaker 1: my goal, like I said, I can do. My goal
Speaker 1: is once all this craziness ends, I want to probably
Speaker 1: want to try to get in there at least two
Speaker 1: times a week. And uh, and my goal is to
Speaker 1: have a professional fight. Yes, are you are you serious? No,
Speaker 1: I'm dead serious that I can't wait to see. I
Speaker 1: just want one, you know, boxing, all right? Yeah? Yeah, boxing?
Speaker 1: You guys remember Match of course that'd be pretty cool.
Speaker 1: Pretty cool? Is there like a age like a senior remember,
Speaker 1: like celebrity boxing, they'd have like Peter from the Brady
Speaker 1: Bunch against get him against um, what's his name? The
Speaker 1: guy we're talking about last night? The YouTube dude Logan Paul, Yeah,
Speaker 1: Dean versus Logan Paul? Yeah? What is this? What's Logan Paul? Like?
Speaker 1: Why all of a sudden is Logan Paul like out
Speaker 1: there now? He's getting knocked out or smacking people? Like,
Speaker 1: what's happening. He's got a huge following, he's a huge
Speaker 1: influencer YouTuber. Um. Yeah. And then yeah, he took that
Speaker 1: he took that boxing match against k s I. They
Speaker 1: did the rematch, they broke records, sold out, both arenas
Speaker 1: had like super high congrown viewership. And then I'm pretty
Speaker 1: sure I read that he signed a bellotor and he's
Speaker 1: fighting like a really good grappler. Okay, and m M
Speaker 1: A fight back to you, Shane in terms of you,
Speaker 1: you know, you mentioned the whole like you you started
Speaker 1: to realize the power of like what you were doing.
Speaker 1: In terms of the videos, where where do you think
Speaker 1: you know, has a lot of your focus has been
Speaker 1: In terms of like we you know, I have young
Speaker 1: kids Joe Travis if it's still very young, but they'll
Speaker 1: be in that that kind of like atallection stage at
Speaker 1: some point in terms of the whole bullying aspect and
Speaker 1: how kids should handle that, How should parents handle that?
Speaker 1: Is that's something that you focus on. Yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 1: I definitely, I definitely preach that. And I tell all
Speaker 1: parents I think they should get into some form or
Speaker 1: they should have their kids getting in some form of
Speaker 1: martial arts, you know it. And and besides the bullying,
Speaker 1: because because it's going to teach you self defense and
Speaker 1: confidence in that kind of thing, but it's it's lifelong
Speaker 1: skills that's going to carry over into adulthood. And I
Speaker 1: didn't realize that at the time because I was nine
Speaker 1: when I started, and you just don't think that way.
Speaker 1: But no, I mean like job interviews, asking girls out
Speaker 1: on a date, um, anything, you name it. Your your
Speaker 1: confidence is going to be is going to be stronger.
Speaker 1: You're martial arts. Like it's funny because different people look
Speaker 1: at it different ways and there's different styles and people
Speaker 1: hate on it. But like the camaraderie that you get
Speaker 1: with it, that discipline, the integrity, Yes, or no, sir.
Speaker 1: Even just things like that help help me to get
Speaker 1: by in life it a little bit easier. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: would imagine just the discipline that that you learned throughout,
Speaker 1: you know, studying it for so long. And that's something
Speaker 1: I've always been I've always been amazed I had the
Speaker 1: chance through whether you were, you know, friends with Jay
Speaker 1: Glazer and he's involved in the M M A world
Speaker 1: and I've met a lot of them and A fighters
Speaker 1: have met a lot of people in that world, and
Speaker 1: they're all of them are are really just down the earth.
Speaker 1: They're they're they're polite, they're courteous and uh and I
Speaker 1: kind of just it just re emphasizes just reinforced what
Speaker 1: you're talking about, like all the things that you learned
Speaker 1: if you're studying these arts, you know, for for many years.
Speaker 1: He kind of just it's impossible to not have that,
Speaker 1: you know, and build upon. Yeah, there's a lot of
Speaker 1: crossover between martial arts and military and martial arts and religion. Um,
Speaker 1: and sometimes you get the negative aspects to in certain
Speaker 1: martial arts families. But if you find if you find
Speaker 1: the right Jimmy, if you find the right family, you
Speaker 1: get almost all positive out of it, and it's through
Speaker 1: it's through hard work, it's through determination, it's through pain
Speaker 1: and discomfort. But that's that's how you grow, that's how
Speaker 1: you get stronger, and that's how you build the confidence.
Speaker 1: Now did you did you see? I mean it was
Speaker 1: one of the one of the better fights that I've
Speaker 1: watched in a while. Did you see the zang Um
Speaker 1: Joanna get your seck fight that they just have? Yeah? Man,
Speaker 1: great fight. I'm a huge fan of both those girls too.
Speaker 1: I think they both have some of the best striking
Speaker 1: male and female in UFC. Yeah, I know, unbelievable, and
Speaker 1: I think you could make a case for both of
Speaker 1: them winning the fight. I just felt like the But
Speaker 1: I think what people are kind of what what went
Speaker 1: viral was Johanna is the human toma. Just have you?
Speaker 1: I mean I can't remember seeing something that. You know,
Speaker 1: the swelling just felt like, I mean, her head it
Speaker 1: was like twice the side. Have you ever seen anything
Speaker 1: like that? What's the worst injury you ever sustained in
Speaker 1: either whether it was just practicing or or fighting. I've
Speaker 1: never had any serious injuries. I've had like a pop
Speaker 1: like broker rib grappling um, but never like any serious injuries. No,
Speaker 1: but like the hematoma. I'm trying to think. I remember
Speaker 1: there was a boxing, there's a head clash. I think
Speaker 1: the guy's last name was Rockman or Ramen. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I forget who that was against. But that was nasty,
Speaker 1: that one. But that her, This one with Joanna was
Speaker 1: her whole. It was her whole face, her whole head.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like one lump. And if you notice on
Speaker 1: her on her Instagram, she is she's been posting, but
Speaker 1: she's not showing her face in any of them. Gonna
Speaker 1: be her back turned or sho'll have her hood up
Speaker 1: or glasses on and covering her face. Brilliant. I don't
Speaker 1: follow her, but that's crazy. Yeah, well someone I think
Speaker 1: I think there were some pictures that floated out there,
Speaker 1: maybe in the and today where you did. She did
Speaker 1: Shore Faith and the bruising is unbelievable, Like her face
Speaker 1: is bruised. Um, but I do. I just pulled up
Speaker 1: a picture of the team Raman rathman Um and it
Speaker 1: was just his eye, but it was like his left eye.
Speaker 1: It was gigantic. Yeah. And but with Joanna it was
Speaker 1: like her head just doubled. She's unrecognizable. I had to
Speaker 1: look it up because I didn't see it, but I
Speaker 1: looked at the pictures. Now, incredible, what's incredible is that
Speaker 1: she can take that dude. Those chicks went to war.
Speaker 1: I mean that was I think about how hard you
Speaker 1: have to hit someone to cause that. She she ate it.
Speaker 1: She kept fighting to the very unund yeah, and then
Speaker 1: followed with what might be the worst fight of all
Speaker 1: time right afterwards. So that was a horrible fight. It
Speaker 1: certainly wasn't It certainly wasn't exciting. But I felt like
Speaker 1: I think there were a lot of people that even
Speaker 1: think that that fight should have been made that you know,
Speaker 1: Romero a kind of lost a couple of fights, but um,
Speaker 1: we'll see. I was actually just I was watching the
Speaker 1: and to be honest with you, and she and I
Speaker 1: want to talk a little bit about obviously what's what's
Speaker 1: going on with the whole coronavirus. But I was watching
Speaker 1: last night just a preview for to be even Tony Ferguson,
Speaker 1: and like, I'm sitting there thinking this fight might not
Speaker 1: happen again because of what's happening in the world. And
Speaker 1: I'm like this fight, which which I think might be
Speaker 1: the best fight the UFC has to offer right now
Speaker 1: is Dunes never to happen? Yeah, what is this a
Speaker 1: fourth time that it would be canceled? This would be
Speaker 1: the fifth time this, This would be the fifth time.
Speaker 1: Like they both they both been like to be, like
Speaker 1: Tony got hurt, to be was hospitalized, Like this would
Speaker 1: be the fifth time, and and and I was watching
Speaker 1: the preview and I was like, fight needs like stylistically,
Speaker 1: it's just but I don't know, right, I agree, I
Speaker 1: think that's going to be an incredible fight. I don't
Speaker 1: know who I have winning that, just because they're so
Speaker 1: good in their own styles. Tony is really good off
Speaker 1: his back, you know, with those elbows, with the submissions.
Speaker 1: Is known for taking people down ground and pounding, great
Speaker 1: ground control. But it just seems like Dana White is
Speaker 1: so determined to make this fight happen. She should. They're
Speaker 1: talking about doing like having an international waters on a ship,
Speaker 1: but that's like the old nine bare knuckle boxing hard ship.
Speaker 1: Tony's training at ten Planet now, right, He's he's been,
Speaker 1: he's been with them. He's good, he's a he's a
Speaker 1: black belt under I think he's got a shot. And
Speaker 1: he's always in his corner, Dy Bravo. I think he
Speaker 1: could win. Yeah, he he definitely could win that. I
Speaker 1: could see. I could see either one of them winning
Speaker 1: that fight. Um, and I just think, I just hope,
Speaker 1: I just hope that happens. I have it on a
Speaker 1: on a ship. I don't care. I want it more
Speaker 1: of her, but I want of you know, with what's
Speaker 1: going on today, And obviously like the now n l A.
Speaker 1: The gyms are closed, you can't go to restaurants, can't
Speaker 1: go to bars, and obviously, like physical fitness and working
Speaker 1: out is such a big part of a lot of
Speaker 1: people's lives and you've been doing this your entire life.
Speaker 1: What like what advice like in terms of working out
Speaker 1: from home? You know, obviously this is this is unique situation,
Speaker 1: but like what would you tell people like in terms
Speaker 1: of like putting together a workout from home? You know,
Speaker 1: what are you doing in terms of during this time
Speaker 1: when we can't go to jams? We can't go really
Speaker 1: you know, be around a lot of people. Well that's
Speaker 1: kind of how I got started with fight tips. Like
Speaker 1: I never always had access to a gym, Like my
Speaker 1: first kickboxing my tie gym that I trained at was
Speaker 1: I had to take. I had to take a bus,
Speaker 1: then a train, than another bus. It took me about
Speaker 1: two hours to get there. And I would probably make
Speaker 1: it in realistically two or three times a week. But
Speaker 1: as a fighter, if you're competing, you have to be
Speaker 1: training five six days a week. So I was always
Speaker 1: doing at home training and then fight Tips was away.
Speaker 1: It was a resource really, like it started off as
Speaker 1: a forum and we would host videos, but we would
Speaker 1: just share training regimens. You know, they'll be high school
Speaker 1: wrestlers on there talking about weight cutting. There'd be strength
Speaker 1: guys on there talking about their different strength programs, jiu jitsu, boxing, footwork,
Speaker 1: keep boxing, go down the list. So it was a
Speaker 1: lot of at home training. I would invite people to
Speaker 1: come over and train with me, friends and guys from
Speaker 1: the gym that lived nearby. But like to answer your question,
Speaker 1: my thing now is I try to work out every
Speaker 1: single day, even if it's only for like ten minutes,
Speaker 1: you know, get a sweat going or just get a
Speaker 1: good stretch in. But like that to me has always
Speaker 1: been the easiest way instead of like I'm gonna work
Speaker 1: out Monday through Friday. This is my routine. I go
Speaker 1: for an hour I do chest and chop tries on
Speaker 1: Monday and then back and buy something like you can
Speaker 1: definitely be organized like that, and a lot of people
Speaker 1: work better that way. But to me, it's just like,
Speaker 1: how do I feel today? I know I have to
Speaker 1: do something. Would it be more wise for me to
Speaker 1: just stretch a little bit? Would it be more wise
Speaker 1: to do two hundred pushups no matter how long it takes,
Speaker 1: go for a run, hit the heavy bag. So that
Speaker 1: that would be my recommendation for people would be just
Speaker 1: get it in. Just get the training in every single day,
Speaker 1: no matter what. Just move a little bit. Um. But
Speaker 1: if you need that organization, if you need like to
Speaker 1: be told what to do, can I can I bump it?
Speaker 1: Can I advertise my go? Go for go? But this
Speaker 1: this is just something that I've been working on, like
Speaker 1: for a really long time, and it's the way I
Speaker 1: kind of tell it to friends and family is like,
Speaker 1: we want to make a Netflix of M M A tutorials.
Speaker 1: So that's what what fight tips dot com. We just
Speaker 1: launched over the weekend um publicly and it's it's that.
Speaker 1: So we launched with two online curriculums courses. So we
Speaker 1: have an M M a course with my buddy Vince
Speaker 1: the anomaly who when when I took this, like when
Speaker 1: we recorded it, it really felt like a college course,
Speaker 1: Like there's diagrams. He walks it three step by step.
Speaker 1: The first four lessons are all conceptual, basic you learned
Speaker 1: like why you're moving from position to position, um, what
Speaker 1: your overall goal is, problem solving skills. And then he
Speaker 1: takes you through physical training for the for the remainder
Speaker 1: and if you if you have someone like a family
Speaker 1: member or a friend that you trust, is coronavirus free.
Speaker 1: I definitely recommend hopping on here, falling along to these
Speaker 1: these drills. Joe looks like, you know, can we can
Speaker 1: we get a discount for good Calls? Listeners? There? Can
Speaker 1: we get going live? Because I could? I can make
Speaker 1: one up now and today. Okay, so I have a
Speaker 1: good good call, Good Calls, Good Calls. There it is,
Speaker 1: sign up with coupon code good Calls and we'll give
Speaker 1: you how about half price? Wow? I was thinking this guy, well,
Speaker 1: I like I like good calls alright, listeners, that's a
Speaker 1: that's a hell of a deal. There you go. He's
Speaker 1: a Friends of the show, but I just think's got
Speaker 1: a lifetime. It's got a lifetime membership right here. Two
Speaker 1: and for life. It's not that. Yeah, And the plan
Speaker 1: is to really, just like I said, Netflix, just keep
Speaker 1: it growing. We want to bring on coaches from all over.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm talking with with different guys. I don't
Speaker 1: want to drop any names yet, but but big name coaches.
Speaker 1: And I really want this to be the hub, to
Speaker 1: be the epicenter of online training martial arts tutorials. And
Speaker 1: Shane is like, no doubt, he's the best coach I've
Speaker 1: ever worked with. He's incredibly detailed. Uh so pretty good man.
Speaker 1: I'm signing up today. I'm gonna use I'm gonna use
Speaker 1: the code myself. Yeah, I'm signing up. I'm signing up,
Speaker 1: and you know, i'll kind of pullbody stretching and may
Speaker 1: ai roadmap. God, I wish we were together, because then
Speaker 1: if we were together, then Travis could turn the laptop
Speaker 1: towards Dean. Then Dean we'll get all fired. But I
Speaker 1: hate when you do that. It's just so well, Shane.
Speaker 1: Here's the thing you don't know about Travis. Travis is
Speaker 1: Travis is a very mild mannered. He's very like Peter
Speaker 1: Parker ish, but but or you know, if you get
Speaker 1: him rolled. His nickname is actually the Caucasian Rattlesnake. And
Speaker 1: and he he did one he did want dropkick a
Speaker 1: guy outside the bar in Santa Monica wearing flip flock.
Speaker 1: He ran half a block and did a flying sidekick
Speaker 1: to the chest in flip flock. Not my proudest moment.
Speaker 1: I know, you don't, you know, push for this kind
Speaker 1: of stuff because you could laugh into the mic chain
Speaker 1: It's okay, he's trying to curb his laughter. He's you're
Speaker 1: it's you're tetally welcome. We encourage laughter on the show.
Speaker 1: I mean I told it. I told him before on
Speaker 1: the show. Like I said, it's not my proudest moment.
Speaker 1: It was, you know, um livations were flowing and some
Speaker 1: guys wanted to uh to stop their friends of the
Speaker 1: female gender at coming over to our house after for
Speaker 1: for an after party. And I he said some things.
Speaker 1: As I was walking away, I turned around and ran
Speaker 1: out of him. Caucasian Rattlesnake came out, but put on
Speaker 1: his head. And why why the flying sidekick went out
Speaker 1: a punch? You have no idea, I have no idea,
Speaker 1: felt right, you know? I watched a couple episodes of
Speaker 1: Power Rangers the day before. It just felt like the
Speaker 1: moves it's I it's much it's a much better for
Speaker 1: the story. So I'm glad to have if you went
Speaker 1: there versus throwing a punch. But it's a much more dominant,
Speaker 1: it's a much more hang ish for all those who played.
Speaker 1: And how did the guy respond? Um? He just like
Speaker 1: I kind of fell back a little bit. He didn't
Speaker 1: and didn't knock him down, and then they just he
Speaker 1: shut his mouth and turned around and walked away and
Speaker 1: they all left. Did you liked you? We didn't have
Speaker 1: an after party that night? Do you think those guys
Speaker 1: every once in a while, like remember that guy, he's
Speaker 1: running across the street and drop kicks. You know what's
Speaker 1: really ironic about this, Travis, is Shane kind of has
Speaker 1: a thing for sidekicks. There's like a thing and he's
Speaker 1: got like a thing on on Instagram and YouTube and
Speaker 1: about about how sidekicks work. I think you might have
Speaker 1: disproven his theory though, because the guy just he just
Speaker 1: he just took a couple of steps back and then
Speaker 1: just said leave me alone. Man. Where where did the
Speaker 1: girl go? Did she come with? You guys, No, they
Speaker 1: they were. They were was a big group and they
Speaker 1: all left. It was let's give away from this crazy dude.
Speaker 1: You know what's what's really funny last night? That was
Speaker 1: a long time ago, though, guys, you gotta remember this
Speaker 1: is probably like circle oh five. We're talking long before
Speaker 1: settled settled down. Travis, you can you can take you
Speaker 1: can take the boy out of Wyoming, but you can't
Speaker 1: take the Wyoming out of the boy. Dean, You'll love
Speaker 1: this one. Last night we were hanging out at Shames,
Speaker 1: me and the kids, and the kids have listened to
Speaker 1: three minutes of the podcast and it happened to be
Speaker 1: when Travis was starting along Moore on Somebody. So I
Speaker 1: was like telling kids, I said, oh, Mr Shane's gonna
Speaker 1: come on the show tomorrow. And Joey's like, what are
Speaker 1: you guys gonna talk about lawnmowers again? It's like, wait, Sheen,
Speaker 1: are you familiar with the one more? You never started
Speaker 1: a lot more on someone you never started in m
Speaker 1: m A So Travis. Travis said in Wyoming, this was
Speaker 1: like they're saying, explain Travis, please. It wasn't a thing
Speaker 1: in Wyoming. It was it was a Canadian friend referred
Speaker 1: to when you get somewhere to the ground and you're
Speaker 1: you're pummeling and with punches. Picture you started a lawnmore.
Speaker 1: You have the one hand that's down on the lawnmower.
Speaker 1: Then you're pulling the string trying to start the lawnmower,
Speaker 1: and usually the referee will stop the fight while the
Speaker 1: lawnmower is being started. Usually that's the guy. So it's
Speaker 1: like it's like a it's like a different name for
Speaker 1: ground and town. Yeah, yeah, totally. I have never heard
Speaker 1: that before. That's hilarious. I have heard of start like
Speaker 1: the one more elbow if you're if you're doing like
Speaker 1: a rising elbow and it looks like you're she had
Speaker 1: a old move that's called the lawnmower. Travis is changing
Speaker 1: the game. Travis is changing that. We're gonna come up
Speaker 1: with some other names, some more common. You know, m
Speaker 1: m a technique. Trying to get that on fight tips, dude.
Speaker 1: This is the lawnmower via Travis. We Caucasian rattlesnake. We
Speaker 1: should do like different moves. If you guys go to
Speaker 1: my YouTube page, you can see me sparring for the
Speaker 1: first time. This is about seven or eight years ago.
Speaker 1: Any flying side, you might want to take a look
Speaker 1: at Chaine. If you have anything, you have your own?
Speaker 1: Do you have your own? Yeah? I mean I have
Speaker 1: like five videos that I posted. They're just ridiculous, Like
Speaker 1: one is one of me sparring and wait to sec
Speaker 1: hold on hearing about Why are we just hearing about
Speaker 1: this now? Because it's just videos are my buddy thing

Speaker 1: he has what five or six videos? Travis? What what
Speaker 1: are what are? Why are we learning about this? Now?
Speaker 1: I've known you for three years and why what's on
Speaker 1: this YouTube page? Well, it's it's nothing. You guys are
Speaker 1: gonna be so disappointed. It's like I started it. It
Speaker 1: looks like my first video is nine years ago. It's uh,
Speaker 1: it's a video of my college roommates playing a on
Speaker 1: campus uh show where they're playing guitar and singing. And
Speaker 1: it was like I put it up so they could
Speaker 1: have have some some access to some videos I took
Speaker 1: while we were in college. And then another one is
Speaker 1: like a fake ad I made. And then it's me
Speaker 1: sparring from four years ago, me at a Pennywise concert,
Speaker 1: and then another song by Yeah. We we have to
Speaker 1: find this and I'll tell you what it is. I'm
Speaker 1: on YouTube and Travis and I'm getting like Colorado El
Speaker 1: Travis Hanson. Yeah, Travis, I just put Travis Hanson in
Speaker 1: former NBA and b y U star talking how you
Speaker 1: bolved that after his basketball career. You guys are just
Speaker 1: gonna be disappointed. Just I'm honest, like Dean, I just
Speaker 1: put in Travis Hanson. And these are the one the
Speaker 1: most Caucasian looking people I've ever seen. It's like there's
Speaker 1: not a person of coloring. These people are quite Yeah,
Speaker 1: there is a there is one of a James Peterson
Speaker 1: versus versus Travis Hanson, Brazilian jiu jitsu. I didn't even
Speaker 1: know that you train and Travis, well, we'll find it.

Speaker 1: One of my roommates, the lead singer um is a
Speaker 1: huge fan of the show. He listens every week and
Speaker 1: and so this is him singing, and so yeah, this
Speaker 1: was really so they could watch this and like I
Speaker 1: had no other way of sharing the video when I
Speaker 1: lived in l a. And and one of the guys listing,
Speaker 1: all right, we're gonna, we're gonna, we're gonna watch Joe
Speaker 1: and I will watch the videos during the week to
Speaker 1: get down and next week we're gonna do We're gonna
Speaker 1: we're gonna talk a little bit more about this. One
Speaker 1: of them has commercial music in it, so once that
Speaker 1: gets discovered, that one will go down. That's the buck range.
Speaker 1: It seems like super cheap beer that I don't think
Speaker 1: they even make anymore. We me and a buddy, I was.
Speaker 1: He was teaching me how to edit on a final cut.
Speaker 1: So we made this video and that was our project.
Speaker 1: Was was a fake commercial for this beer. I can't
Speaker 1: wait to watch. Okay, no, this is because I'm watching
Speaker 1: some of this sparring. I mean, are you are? You were?

Speaker 1: we'll watch it. We'll watch it. Let's move on. Let's
Speaker 1: let's let's move on. I want to talk about I
Speaker 1: had a kokee the other day. And do you remember
Speaker 1: the Matt Barns when Matt Barnes try to make them flinch?
Speaker 1: And just like there, I had that. I had, I
Speaker 1: had that moment. I wait, were No, I was? I
Speaker 1: didn't flinch. Someone tried to make you flinch and you
Speaker 1: didn't flinch. Well it was a squirrel, so so was
Speaker 1: my person. I was. I was because the gym. You know,
Speaker 1: I'm social distancing, so not going to the gym, and
Speaker 1: I went for a run and I went down you know,
Speaker 1: I went down the stairs here in Santa Monica and
Speaker 1: I went down by the ocean and I ran just
Speaker 1: kind of on my own. And then as I was
Speaker 1: walking back to my place there, this squirrel jumped out
Speaker 1: of nowhere, like he came out of these bushes and
Speaker 1: ran or right between my legs and I literally, I
Speaker 1: don't know if you've seen squirrels here in Santa Monica,
Speaker 1: like down by the beach, but they they're they're kind
Speaker 1: of shady, and it literally ran between my legs and
Speaker 1: I didn't I was like, what's up, Like I didn't flinch.
Speaker 1: A lot of people would have jumped, and I just
Speaker 1: like didn't play. It's like even like people like like
Speaker 1: five six ft ahead of me, you can see, and
Speaker 1: they kind of reacted, and I just like stood this
Speaker 1: just like COVID so awesome. I was proud. I was
Speaker 1: proud of myself. I know, I know, so what during
Speaker 1: this time, there's been a lot of just social media
Speaker 1: content specific to a coronavirus that has been a little
Speaker 1: bit you know, more on like the funny side. We
Speaker 1: talked about keeping our sense of humor. So you know
Speaker 1: I've seen. I sent you guys a video of the
Speaker 1: guy in Italy playing the DJ on his folk top
Speaker 1: and it is really good. If you haven't seen that,
Speaker 1: he kind of he does the controls like he's a
Speaker 1: DJ and he's and he's dancing. What's the best content
Speaker 1: you guys have seen in during this social distancing? You
Speaker 1: know time? Oh that's a tough one, but yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean I put the Italian guy playing DJ and and
Speaker 1: that was the best one I've seen so far. Like,
Speaker 1: if you haven't seen it, I should have had the
Speaker 1: name of it. But the guy that turns when he
Speaker 1: turns on the light on his dove and he's going
Speaker 1: to the techno music like I lost it, and he's
Speaker 1: wearing some kind of mullet wig or something. He looks
Speaker 1: so ridiculous. Um, he's he's definitely doing the most with
Speaker 1: with being stuck inside. I'll tell you what's the worst content? Okay,
Speaker 1: if I if I click on one more link and
Speaker 1: I see that dude sitting on the bed, if I
Speaker 1: one more time, I'm gonna lose my ship, Like and Travis,
Speaker 1: have you seen this? Stop? Come on, Joe, Joe send
Speaker 1: him a link. Everyone him. So so what they do
Speaker 1: is like my brother did it, my cousin did everybody.
Speaker 1: Still they'll send you a link and it's like it's
Speaker 1: like Trump test positive for coronavirus and you click on
Speaker 1: the link and it's this big black dude with with
Speaker 1: what I can only describe as a I guess like
Speaker 1: he and I are the same species, Like what what
Speaker 1: what he has and what I have? It's not even
Speaker 1: in the same ball park, and uh, just like out
Speaker 1: and he's just and it's his face because he's just
Speaker 1: like he's just like what's up? Like he's not even
Speaker 1: like it's not like the sexty pace, it's not. It's
Speaker 1: just him sitting on the bed naked with this thing
Speaker 1: and you just click on it and it's jarring and
Speaker 1: I clicked on, like I clicked on like four things.
Speaker 1: Please don't send it to me already already did. But
Speaker 1: do you think like every time there's something like this
Speaker 1: that happens like this too is like, hey, I'm about
Speaker 1: to go viraly? Like what what is he? Like what
Speaker 1: is he thinking during this time? Like well, you know,
Speaker 1: like what it's I don't know, but yeah, I think
Speaker 1: bar stool is doing like a shirt of the guy. Um,
Speaker 1: not that entire just just his space. But this entire
Speaker 1: thing would not be assured. It wouldn't really work. You know.
Speaker 1: I have a question. Is the handshake dead? Like? Are
Speaker 1: we are we gonna go to bowing? I mean this
Speaker 1: is this is a rule show. This is a rule show.
Speaker 1: So like what are the rules now? Like where are
Speaker 1: we at? What are the rules? Well? The rules are
Speaker 1: we we look? I think social distancing is the thing
Speaker 1: that we need to do. So the only you know,
Speaker 1: at least for me, like I don't go out unless
Speaker 1: I have to. Yeah, but you did that before the coronavirus.
Speaker 1: I know because I'm I'm I'm a pro. It's staying home.
Speaker 1: I don't like a lot of people anyway. But but
Speaker 1: I think the thing is, I think what they're telling
Speaker 1: us is, you know, don't go out unless you absolutely
Speaker 1: have to stay in. Don't go to public places that
Speaker 1: have a lot of people. I mean most states now
Speaker 1: are fifty people um or more. They're they're they're banning
Speaker 1: those types of those types of gatherings. Um. You know,
Speaker 1: I think, like he said, Okay, the handshake, I don't
Speaker 1: see a lot of bro hubs happening out there at
Speaker 1: this point. I mean, I think we're all just going
Speaker 1: to everybody just has to respect each other's face, which
Speaker 1: we should do anyway. What's going to be interesting. The
Speaker 1: more interesting question is when this thing, when this thing finally,
Speaker 1: when we get back to what the new normal is,
Speaker 1: will everybody go back to doing what they were doing before.
Speaker 1: That's what I'm at. That tends to happen, that that
Speaker 1: tends to be our our experience right when we I
Speaker 1: went you know, I was in New York City during
Speaker 1: nine eleven, and that was obviously a crazy time. And
Speaker 1: right after nine eleven, what happened everybody, the the the
Speaker 1: the k s A, the airlines, that the security, everything
Speaker 1: was ramps up, ramps up, rams up, and but then
Speaker 1: after a while it's it's we kind of fall back
Speaker 1: into not necessarily, Yeah, there were new restrictions put in place,
Speaker 1: but it's not as hyper sensitive as it was immediately
Speaker 1: following nine eleven. And I don't know if will will
Speaker 1: maintain this this hyper sensitivity once this, you know, this
Speaker 1: runs its course. I don't know. So are you saying
Speaker 1: I probably shouldn't have went to the gym In's bar?
Speaker 1: This morning. Yeah, I think honestly, don't know, you shouldn't
Speaker 1: you shouldn't go. I think it's stuff like that. And
Speaker 1: I know people they don't want to look. I'm I'm
Speaker 1: not one. I don't sit there and say, oh my god,
Speaker 1: the world is ending and the sky is falling. But
Speaker 1: I think if people can't get out of their normal
Speaker 1: routine and they can't shut it down for a couple
Speaker 1: of weeks and this this thing is going to go
Speaker 1: on a lot longer. And I think you see it
Speaker 1: happening in countries like Italy where two or three weeks
Speaker 1: ago people we're doing the normal things, and now the
Speaker 1: entire countries and the quarity. And if we don't want
Speaker 1: our country to be in quarantine, then we have to
Speaker 1: start taking the steps now. And that means not going
Speaker 1: to the gym, not going to you know, restaurants, not
Speaker 1: going to and if our governments have to basically do
Speaker 1: things that to help us from ourselves, then that's what
Speaker 1: they have to do. And and so if everything shut down,
Speaker 1: there's nowhere to go and we all have to stay home.
Speaker 1: And I think that's probably what's best for the time being.
Speaker 1: It's uh, it's yeah, we definitely have to do it.
Speaker 1: And and I was joking, I was like, just have
Speaker 1: kids and under the age of two and a half
Speaker 1: and you'll sell you'll self distance yourself or social distance yourself.
Speaker 1: He's just like, we've been staying home with my my
Speaker 1: five week old, as you do with the new born.
Speaker 1: You don't want to expose to anyone, you know, even
Speaker 1: like friends, like close friends. Before the virus even really
Speaker 1: um took a hold in our country, we were just
Speaker 1: distancing ourselves. And I think it's like, to reiterate what
Speaker 1: you said in the s w D way, Um, it
Speaker 1: is important to stay at home. It just is. And Joe,
Speaker 1: I know it's hard for you because you're a very
Speaker 1: social person. You You, you and I are different in
Speaker 1: that that you know, the idea of you staying home
Speaker 1: by yourself and and kind of not not doing anything
Speaker 1: that that's a lot harder for you than it would
Speaker 1: be for me. Um. But this is these are very
Speaker 1: unique and and and unusual times, and we just have
Speaker 1: to And if you get bored, and if you get
Speaker 1: bored and you want to come over here and hang out, UM,
Speaker 1: you know this week, that's cool too, And you know
Speaker 1: you can you can fit seven feet away from me
Speaker 1: and we can chat and we'll watch anything. Just spray
Speaker 1: yourself down with lights all before you come in. No,
Speaker 1: but it is looks this, but the reality is is
Speaker 1: curious as if these when this, when all of this
Speaker 1: runs its course, will we will we learn from it?
Speaker 1: And and and the new normal be, you know, washing
Speaker 1: your hands properly and not not doing all these things
Speaker 1: that we were doing before, so that germ spread and
Speaker 1: all that. I don't know, I don't know when did
Speaker 1: washing your hands be become like out anyways, Like you
Speaker 1: see people go in the bathroom and not wash their
Speaker 1: hands afterwards, and that's that's completely absurd. Well yeah, alright,
Speaker 1: well I'm gonna stay in for you get get go
Speaker 1: ahead and grab call of duty and we get back.
Speaker 1: We could go back, get back on, get the get
Speaker 1: the old gang back together. I am going to I
Speaker 1: want to while everybody here and since we're I want

Speaker 1: you know you've seen the movie and you still said
Speaker 1: royal with jeans and you said royal with Oh my god,
Speaker 1: you like royal? Oh my god, I almost cut I
Speaker 1: was gonna cut it as the director. Ah do you think, Joe,
Speaker 1: you you've listened to both, which reading do you think
Speaker 1: was worse? His his reading is Tommy? Or his reading?

Speaker 1: a famous people say that all the time. Oh, I've
Speaker 1: never heard that outside of this reading, Like, I don't
Speaker 1: remember that in the movie. Yeah, I saw it. I
Speaker 1: saw it once. I'm I'm sorry, I don't see movies that.
Speaker 1: I'm not the best reader. And I tell you what,
Speaker 1: if I was an actor, I would have practiced my
Speaker 1: lines and read them beforehand. So I have to just
