00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: to step in the other way with them, big sideway.

41
00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 1: Welcome in side to Michael Love here this building.

42
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 2: Explain the name cligure that that's mushroom for what.

43
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:57,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mico stands for mushroom. It's Latin for mushroomroom. Yeah.

44
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 1: So mycology study of mushrooms, we have Michael remediation, which

45
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:06,079
Speaker 1: is remediation through the use of mushrooms. So Michael Love

46
00:03:06,280 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: was born just out of the fact that mushrooms are

47
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: love for us, you know, love and to the intention

48
00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: behind this is to help people feel better, to provide

49
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 1: them with, you know, something from nature that can help

50
00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: them feel better.

51
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:18,480
Speaker 5: Love it.

52
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 1: So yeah, I started coming out here and got the

53
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,440
Speaker 1: opportunity to learn how to grow from the original owner

54
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 1: and then got in way over my head and that's

55
00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:29,960
Speaker 1: when I met Shane, and then that's when I met Michael.

56
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: And we got guys that have been in this you know,

57
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: mycologists or amateur foragers that have been studying mycology and mushrooms,

58
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: and then we just we decided to make it legit

59
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,640
Speaker 1: and start experimenting with the finding the best way and

60
00:03:43,680 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 1: most efficient way to grow mushrooms and then to extract them.

61
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 1: In an industry that's growing rapidly and there's talks between

62
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: you know, fruiting body and mycilium, which one is better,

63
00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 1: how do they work? We just wanted to focus on

64
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 1: fruiting bodies and extracting them and making a really high,

65
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:02,880
Speaker 1: high potent, efficacious product. So when we give it to you,

66
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:05,839
Speaker 1: we hope you know you receive it and it helped.

67
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,720
Speaker 2: We're looking forward to receiving it.

68
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 1: So it's funny because we started Umbo, which umbo is

69
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,400
Speaker 1: the very tip top of a fruiting cap, the top

70
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 1: of the anything that protrudes out like the boss on

71
00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 1: a shield. And so we started Umbo with my buddy

72
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:22,000
Speaker 1: Dale Jolly and Rashad Evans on the UFC Hall Tame

73
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 1: and then this farm came into the picture of like, hey,

74
00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 1: do you want to learn how to grow mushrooms? Hell? Yeah,

75
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 1: I want to learn how a girl mushrooms. So we

76
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: came out here, Michael Love was born. And now it's

77
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: really cool because we actually put Michael Love mushroom extract

78
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,919
Speaker 1: in some Mumbo bottles. Okay, so it's it's really nice

79
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,440
Speaker 1: to know who's doing it and have a hand in

80
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:47,200
Speaker 1: sometimes out here mixing the substrate and picking the rachie

81
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:52,039
Speaker 1: or helping, you know, inoculate some some rieberries or kind

82
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: of getting nerdy out here with mushrooms experiment. Yeah.

83
00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,760
Speaker 2: So I jumped into the cannabis space. I mean, I've

84
00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 2: been a cannabis consumer since I was a young teenager.

85
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 2: Got involved right when I was about to retire around

86
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen and obviously that was the kind of the

87
00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,520
Speaker 2: green rush, and since then it feels like mushrooms are

88
00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,040
Speaker 2: kind of the next wave. I know a lot of

89
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 2: people who are in the cannabis that base formally taking

90
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,359
Speaker 2: all their money and coming in to this space. So

91
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 2: this is kind of what the new thriving. I know,

92
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,920
Speaker 2: it's not new, but kind of new to culture. So

93
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:23,600
Speaker 2: to speak, Well, why do you think, I mean, why

94
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,960
Speaker 2: do you think that is? Why is it hitting now?

95
00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 2: But you know we're speaking outside. You said this could

96
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 2: be thirty four million years old.

97
00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:30,160
Speaker 1: You know who really knows?

98
00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:32,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I think you know, one thing that

99
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,760
Speaker 6: was interesting was COVID. I think a lot of people

100
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:38,040
Speaker 6: got you know, more health conscious and aware of what

101
00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 6: they're putting in their bodies. And I think a lot

102
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:45,280
Speaker 6: of the what they call nutraceutical industry, which is more

103
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,160
Speaker 6: you know, pharmaceuticals that come from nature, started being taken

104
00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,159
Speaker 6: a little more seriously. I mean, if you consider some

105
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:55,359
Speaker 6: scary statistics around, if you take what's interesting is like,

106
00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 6: I think it's the fourth leading cause of death. If

107
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 6: you summed them up for this reason for death for

108
00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:02,280
Speaker 6: the last two decades, it would equal the fourth meeting

109
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 6: cause of death and this is taking prescription medications as

110
00:06:05,760 --> 00:06:09,280
Speaker 6: prescribed by your physician, which is crazy. So you're listening

111
00:06:09,279 --> 00:06:11,040
Speaker 6: to a medical professional.

112
00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:12,520
Speaker 2: And that's what ing yourselves.

113
00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:13,080
Speaker 5: Yeah.

114
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 6: So, and I think a lot of things are going

115
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 6: on where people are going back to nature and they

116
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 6: want to find a more natural way to deal with

117
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,279
Speaker 6: their issues. I mean, we've gotten thousands of emails of

118
00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 6: anybody from eighteen to one hundred and eighteen, and it's

119
00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 6: sort of if you put it into a theme, it's like, hey,

120
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 6: Western medicine has failed me. I'm desperate. What can mushrooms

121
00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 6: do for me? And we're at a point where we

122
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 6: don't know all the answers. There's an estimated at this

123
00:06:37,520 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 6: point ten million potential species of fungi in the planet.

124
00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:45,120
Speaker 6: It's a big number, and we've named we the mycology

125
00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 6: industry or the micology world has named maybe one hundred,

126
00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,960
Speaker 6: one hundred and fifty thousand species. And they're not all

127
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 6: mushroom forming species. Some of these are ones that grow

128
00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 6: and permeate our environment that you'll never really experience. But

129
00:06:58,720 --> 00:07:00,520
Speaker 6: I think, you know, all of these things led to

130
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 6: people trying to find, you know, better ways of living

131
00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 6: their lives.

132
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, you guys ready to show us around.

133
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 6: Yeah, so this is the sort of the main room.

134
00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 6: What's really cool about this facility is that it was

135
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 6: actually constructed in twenty seventeen specifically to grow mushrooms. So

136
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,679
Speaker 6: the entire thing is it was built as a flow

137
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,440
Speaker 6: through facility because you have to be super clean and

138
00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 6: sterile when you when you produce mushrooms, it turns out

139
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:23,880
Speaker 6: and you want to make sure that you don't backtrack

140
00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,880
Speaker 6: contamination or whatever. So this is sort of our dirtiest room,

141
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:28,560
Speaker 6: if you will. But as we go through, you'll kind

142
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,520
Speaker 6: of learn the different rooms and the flow of what

143
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 6: we do. And I guess we can kind of start here.

144
00:07:34,600 --> 00:07:37,040
Speaker 6: And a good example is, you know, Michael Love really

145
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 6: set out to be a vertically integrated mushroom company.

146
00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: So that means is that we literally go out to the.

147
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 6: Wild and Michael here went out to California on a

148
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 6: hike and he found allion's mane.

149
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:49,040
Speaker 1: Growing on a log.

150
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 6: What's really cool is you can take this and they're

151
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 6: called was it clary potent, which means you can take

152
00:07:54,800 --> 00:07:57,280
Speaker 6: any part of the organism and recreate it.

153
00:07:57,560 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 1: So what we do here at the.

154
00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,160
Speaker 6: Farm is we'll take a specimen from the wild. We'll

155
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 6: take a little tissue sample and we'll put it on

156
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 6: something called a petri dish. So this is just we'll

157
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 6: take a little piece of this, put it on the

158
00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 6: dish and let it grow out. Once it grows out

159
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 6: on this dish, we'll transfer it and turn it into

160
00:08:14,240 --> 00:08:18,040
Speaker 6: a liquid. So we amplify this into five hundred mills

161
00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:20,480
Speaker 6: and then we take a little bit of this and

162
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:22,840
Speaker 6: we'll inject it into a jar, about a one pound

163
00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 6: jar of rye grain, and then that jar grain. What's

164
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 6: really cool about fungi is, you know, we consume our

165
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 6: food and we digest it. Fungi sort of grow into

166
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:33,880
Speaker 6: their food and then digest it.

167
00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,160
Speaker 1: So this started out as rotten.

168
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,040
Speaker 6: You know, stero riberries, and then it grows through the

169
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,160
Speaker 6: entire thing and turns it into its body. Yeah, and

170
00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:43,360
Speaker 6: it gets every stage that we're talking about, it gets

171
00:08:43,360 --> 00:08:45,520
Speaker 6: a little bit stronger. So once it's through, this is

172
00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,280
Speaker 6: sort of its teenage food. We'll transfer it and expand

173
00:08:48,280 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 6: it into about a ten pound bag of grain. And

174
00:08:50,280 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 6: then that ten pound bag of grain will be used

175
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:56,000
Speaker 6: to inoculate two hundred and forty pounds, and each shelf

176
00:08:56,040 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 6: is about two hundred and forty pounds.

177
00:08:57,559 --> 00:09:01,080
Speaker 1: They will climb to the tallest tree. This will sprout

178
00:09:01,120 --> 00:09:03,040
Speaker 1: out of their head and then it drops scores on

179
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:06,200
Speaker 1: the fourt floor from the heights of the So like

180
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:08,679
Speaker 1: the mushroom is this chicken?

181
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 2: And to do this like chicken and almost had like

182
00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:16,040
Speaker 2: a meaty the texture is almost meaty. Yeah, yeah, there

183
00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 2: you go like an oyster or something good.

184
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:21,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go like a scallop that's like a

185
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: piece of hali. But even like that's real good. You

188
00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:38,680
Speaker 1: it's good for your brain, and it's good for the

189
00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: environment because we're not eating animal animals, right, which we

190
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:48,599
Speaker 1: all could eat a little less of them.

00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,360
Speaker 2: it's been an interesting Just again, someone, I've been a

208
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 2: cannabis advocate since I was a teenager, and obviously to

209
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:58,760
Speaker 2: see the growth of the of the medicine and the

210
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:03,320
Speaker 2: acceptance of the medicine, and then obviously now this side

211
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 2: of the mushroom the growth of it. Obviously it's been

212
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,840
Speaker 2: around for a long time, but I just think the

213
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 2: growth and acceptances is higher than it's ever been. And

214
00:11:11,600 --> 00:11:14,880

00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: First, thanks for coming out here to Colorado. It's awesome

219
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: to host you guys. As a fan of the NBA,

220
00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,920
Speaker 1: watching you guys play, watching some highlights, you know, just recently,

221
00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 1: and like, dude, sometimes you didn't even hit the rim.

222
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:34,800
Speaker 1: It's just like that all day.

223
00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:37,760
Speaker 2: Like sometimes he would see three rims and the one

224
00:11:37,760 --> 00:11:38,199
Speaker 2: in the middle.

225
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:42,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's cool to connect with you guys, you know,

226
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: with with sports being a bridge and uh where this begin?

227
00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: I don't know. You know, I really have always been

228
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: carrying teammate. Uh had a close family that taught me

229
00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: how to take care of each other. Uh, So I've

230
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: always wanted to provide for my guys, you know, like

231
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:01,280
Speaker 1: if I got something that's good, I'm gonna share. And

232
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: my first kind of journey down to become public about

233
00:12:05,880 --> 00:12:10,960
Speaker 1: the use of cannabis, most importantly or more significant significantly

234
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,480
Speaker 1: as CBD, came with Charlotte's Web, when I got a

235
00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 1: chance to first take it and understand its benefits, to

236
00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 1: feel how it made me feel. It helped me feel

237
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,360
Speaker 1: a lot better. My headaches went away that I was

238
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,120
Speaker 1: having daily felt inflammation and some joints, being able to

239
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 1: get back down on the floor again without the pain.

240
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 1: And so I was like, man, there's there's something here.

241
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,480
Speaker 1: If this is illegal, this isn't right, because it's helping me.

242
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,439
Speaker 1: And then I learned about the young children with severe

243
00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:42,600
Speaker 1: seizure disorders that it's helping them, and these mothers that

244
00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: are coming to Colorado because they can't do it in

245
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: the state they're in without fear of going to jail

246
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,080
Speaker 1: or prosecution. It's like, that's not right, Like this is

247
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,360
Speaker 1: a human right. And so getting out and advocating about that,

248
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 1: sending it to my teammates, to my loved ones to

249
00:12:56,840 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 1: let them benefit, and then to see the path that

250
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,880
Speaker 1: it's gone on has been amazing. Cannabis is a medicine

251
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:05,839
Speaker 1: and it helps people whatever way you use it, whether

252
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:10,200
Speaker 1: that's marijuana or CBD or both combined. Right, there is

253
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:14,000
Speaker 1: something there that people need to know about. So that's

254
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: been the whole thing to open up, is to educate,

255
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:19,679
Speaker 1: to advocate. Mushrooms came around because I met a guy

256
00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: named Deal Jolly at Charlotte's Web. We became good friends,

257
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: and he gave me some tinctures before the pandemic and

258
00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,360
Speaker 1: I started taking those and it was like, WHOA, this

259
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 1: is crazy. I feel like even another level of freedom

260
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: in my joints. My allergies were not as bad. I

261
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:42,480
Speaker 1: was not afraid of this virus going around like COVID

262
00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: going around getting everybody. I wasn't afraid, and so we

263
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:48,880
Speaker 1: started rapping about it and said, if we're going to

264
00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:51,280
Speaker 1: do this, let's do it right. Let's make sure our

265
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:59,319
Speaker 1: product is very, very ethically sourced, potent and works. Because

266
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:02,760
Speaker 1: Charlotte's Web kind of set the bar with CBD that way,

267
00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: and I didn't want to do it any other way.

268
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,000
Speaker 1: And that's really what's brought me to hear and now

269
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:11,800
Speaker 1: from what I've benefitted and been grateful to have this

270
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,400
Speaker 1: opportunity to speak about it with you, with your audience,

271
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 1: with anybody, that's kind of what I do. I share

272
00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 1: this because we need to know there's nature, there's natural

273
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,360
Speaker 1: ways out there to help your body feel better, to

274
00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: help your mind function better, whether that's just being able

275
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 1: to sleep a little better or have a little more

276
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,040
Speaker 1: energy during the day, to feel a little more productive

277
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: so you don't jump your shit at night when you're

278
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:36,120
Speaker 1: alone looking in the mirror saying, man, I ain't getting

279
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: shit done. Well, maybe you can get a little more

280
00:14:38,480 --> 00:14:41,240
Speaker 1: productivity with a little more focused, a little more clarity,

281
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:43,920
Speaker 1: And this is just a chance to do that. So

282
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 1: it's been a beautiful, beautiful journey. But we're just getting startled.

283
00:14:47,440 --> 00:14:49,920
Speaker 1: And that's the exciting part, is just barely even starting.

284
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 2: Take us on the journey of a ten year NFL quarterback.

285
00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 2: Obviously one of the most brutal sports out there, and

286
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:03,440
Speaker 2: obviously we see you perform every Sunday and make magic happen,

287
00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 2: but we don't get to see once you go home,

288
00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:07,680
Speaker 2: once you're outside of the locker room, and what that

289
00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,560
Speaker 2: day to day is like, and how someone such as yourself,

290
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:12,640
Speaker 2: a quarterback who gets hit a lot of times, back

291
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 2: before they were really protecting quarterbacks, how did you manage pain?

292
00:15:17,720 --> 00:15:17,960
Speaker 5: What?

293
00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:19,480
Speaker 2: What you know? Did you have vices?

294
00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: What?

295
00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 2: How did you manage the off the field issues, not

296
00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 2: only physically but mentally?

297
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:27,080
Speaker 1: You know? For me, I mean, I was so in it.

298
00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:29,120
Speaker 1: It was just it was it was actually fun to

299
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,840
Speaker 1: get beat up on a game day and then two

300
00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:34,480
Speaker 1: days later be almost back to fielding one hundred percent,

301
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 1: even though I would you know, it wasn't one hundred percent,

302
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,200
Speaker 1: but to feel my body healing was was good to

303
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:43,120
Speaker 1: know that I could do that. There was definitely a

304
00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:45,840
Speaker 1: lot of a lot of brutal injuries that I fought through.

305
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,640
Speaker 1: Probably should have taken some breaks, but I just didn't

306
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,440
Speaker 1: want to leave the field. I wanted to play, and

307
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,680
Speaker 1: if I left the field gave the door open to

308
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 1: someone else to take it. It was like, no, I

309
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 1: want that. I want to keep here, keep doing this

310
00:15:57,920 --> 00:16:01,000
Speaker 1: and pursuing my childhood dream to win a Super Bowl.

311
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,560
Speaker 1: The beatings were real, you know, and the stress along

312
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,400
Speaker 1: with that, not just the physical part of the game,

313
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 1: but also the expectations heaped on really the face of

314
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,480
Speaker 1: a franchise, the number two in any of these billion

315
00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 1: dollar organizations, because they'll fire a coach and they'll keep

316
00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:20,080
Speaker 1: me around, so you're a very very important part of that.

317
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,960
Speaker 1: But managing that was also you know, it was a challenge.

318
00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: But I had good people around me. I have real

319
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:29,960
Speaker 1: strong family, good friends that would pull me back down

320
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: when I was getting a little two up there to

321
00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 1: feeling like I was bigger than I really was. But

322
00:16:36,600 --> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 1: post career, you know, it's been a it's they don't

323
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 1: prep you for it. They'll they'll offer seminars, that'll offer

324
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: conferences to talk about business or you know, media boot

325
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: camp and all this stuff, but they really don't prepare

326
00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 1: you for what really is out there. And I didn't

327
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 1: plan for any of that. I was full one hundred

328
00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 1: percent balling when I was playing ball. The last thing

329
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,920
Speaker 1: I wanted to think about was when I retire, I

330
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 1: think I'm going to try and into this. Like no,

331
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:03,320
Speaker 1: I was. I just wanted to win a Super Bowl,

332
00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,240
Speaker 1: So I was solely focused on that. Therefore, when I

333
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:07,879
Speaker 1: got out, I had to kind of learn how to

334
00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,439
Speaker 1: manage my time, manage what I did with my body.

335
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:11,680
Speaker 1: How do I go get treatment?

336
00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 3: Now?

337
00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:13,920
Speaker 1: I can't just go to the training room and get

338
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:18,359
Speaker 1: everybody to put needles in me, to massage me, to

339
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:20,040
Speaker 1: sit in hot tub, do all this stuff. You got

340
00:17:20,080 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: to take it all on yourself. So it's been a journey.

341
00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:25,159
Speaker 1: It definitely was. You know, there were some ups and downs,

342
00:17:25,200 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: and then as we find out with the TBI and

343
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,399
Speaker 1: the concussions and the severity of that, and then, you know,

344
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: real shock for me was when Junior say I took

345
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:37,080
Speaker 1: his life. That was really like the moment I thought,

346
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,359
Speaker 1: what the fuck did I do this for? What the

347
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 1: hell is this? This is something I got to look at.

348
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 1: And that's right about when cannabis was legalized here. I

349
00:17:45,160 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: moved back to Colorado, and that's about right when Charlotte's

350
00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:51,720
Speaker 1: Webb came into the picture through a teammate, Nate Jackson,

351
00:17:51,960 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 1: and a guy working for them named Ryan Kingsbury.

352
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:59,280
Speaker 2: When the just just the day to day, I mean, obviously,

353
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:01,600
Speaker 2: you know, we play long careers in the NBA and

354
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 2: and to me it doesn't pale to what you guys

355
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:06,679
Speaker 2: went through. But we were beat up, you know what

356
00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 2: I mean, and in pain. And you know, these doctors

357
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:12,399
Speaker 2: will prescribe us anything, not telling us that it's you know,

358
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:15,959
Speaker 2: temporarily masking one thing and causing long term effects. Or

359
00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:18,399
Speaker 2: you know, I know something that was very common in

360
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,960
Speaker 2: the NFL was toward all and you know I actually

361
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:22,320
Speaker 2: took some of that when I was in the league,

362
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 2: and it was unbelievable.

363
00:18:25,800 --> 00:18:26,560
Speaker 1: I was never.

364
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:30,480
Speaker 2: Really someone that took the painkillers. You know, we both

365
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:32,959
Speaker 2: risked our career, our entire career because now obviously cannabis

366
00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:34,960
Speaker 2: is legal. But I was always someone that would smoke

367
00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 2: cannabis after games. You know, only time I really miss

368
00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,800
Speaker 2: games when I'll suspend it, you know what I mean. Like,

369
00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:41,359
Speaker 2: like you said, I wanted to be out there. So

370
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:45,040
Speaker 2: you know, during your journey of again having to be

371
00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,480
Speaker 2: there every single Sunday, you open. Leave that door open,

372
00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 2: you could lose your job. What were some of the

373
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,800
Speaker 2: ways you were able to manage the pain along along

374
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:53,400
Speaker 2: this journey.

375
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,360
Speaker 1: One was just taking really good care of my body,

376
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: being lucky to come across some really good healers and

377
00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 1: tease a guy named Brett Fisher in Arizona that was

378
00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: really he just he just got to know me inside

379
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 1: and out, like he knew what I needed. I'd go

380
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: see him multiple times during the week. I stayed away

381
00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,920
Speaker 1: from the pain medicine too. I took a lot of

382
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:17,080
Speaker 1: anti inflammatories and that's uh, you know, towards the telling

383
00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:18,720
Speaker 1: in my career. That was one of the reasons why

384
00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:20,000
Speaker 1: I was like, I got to get out of here.

385
00:19:20,080 --> 00:19:23,400
Speaker 1: I can't. I can't take these these are they're pulling one,

386
00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:26,680
Speaker 1: you know, some version off the shelf because it's the

387
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 1: elderly are dying from it that I'm popping to a

388
00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 1: day and it's like, wait, this is this doesn't sit

389
00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,119
Speaker 1: real with me. And my mom always warned me, you know,

390
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: and told me to be real cognitive of what you

391
00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:40,320
Speaker 1: put in your body, and uh, towards me tellen. In

392
00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,480
Speaker 1: my career, I started, uh you know, I started smoking

393
00:19:43,520 --> 00:19:45,679
Speaker 1: after games and using it as a way to like

394
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:50,399
Speaker 1: release release like I played in a I played in

395
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 1: Arizona for six years, an organization that's had some success,

396
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,600
Speaker 1: and then I came here to the Denver Broncos, an

397
00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:59,639
Speaker 1: organization that is his success, And all of a sudden,

398
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 1: it was like I was fine with that, Like what

399
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:04,640
Speaker 1: are you gonna do? John Elway? This that like, I'm

400
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:06,480
Speaker 1: not John, I'm here to ball out. Let's go have

401
00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: some fun, you know, like let's go play. If I

402
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 1: can win a super Bowl, great, But the pressure came

403
00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:15,159
Speaker 1: from like the expectation and the drive to be the best,

404
00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:19,320
Speaker 1: to be perfect. I just it started to weigh me down.

405
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:23,520
Speaker 1: And postgame my family would be around. Rather than worried

406
00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:26,919
Speaker 1: about not playing the best, I could go down and

407
00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:30,640
Speaker 1: have a little smoke with the fam and I feel

408
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: I would actually feel it. It was like I'm gonna

409
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:36,680
Speaker 1: have to watch this film tomorrow. I'm not gonna relive

410
00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:38,520
Speaker 1: it tonight. I get to see my family for four

411
00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,679
Speaker 1: hours before I go to bed. I'm gonna drop in

412
00:20:40,720 --> 00:20:43,359
Speaker 1: and see my family. And it was really good for me.

413
00:20:43,760 --> 00:20:46,320
Speaker 1: But it also got me thinking too. Became real aware

414
00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:49,080
Speaker 1: of what I was doing. How long do I want

415
00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: to do this because I never set out to do

416
00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: it a long time. I remember seeing John Alway my

417
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,240
Speaker 1: second year in the league, and I watched him walk

418
00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: out of a bar and up some stairs and I

419
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 1: was like, whoa, that's what sixteen years get you. Like,

420
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:04,440
Speaker 1: I am not gonna limp out of this game. I'm

421
00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 1: gonna run away from it. And that's that's what I did.

422
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:09,840
Speaker 1: I was able to pull that off. So I used

423
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:12,880
Speaker 1: I used a lot of natural medicine, a lot of massage, acupuncture.

424
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: My mom, like I said, she was into holistic medicine

425
00:21:16,359 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 1: and would give me garlic and honey for a cold,

426
00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:20,399
Speaker 1: you know, like she was in it. Her mom was

427
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,200
Speaker 1: in it. A lot of herbs, a lot of tea,

428
00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,439
Speaker 1: you know, certain things that aren't what you're gonna get

429
00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 1: with modern medicine. So I took pretty good care of

430
00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:30,399
Speaker 1: my body. But it was it was a lot of work.

431
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,359
Speaker 2: Second year with the Cardinals. You guys make the playoffs

432
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 2: first time in a long time. Talk to us about

433
00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:36,879
Speaker 2: that team and that experience that would have meant for

434
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:37,320
Speaker 2: that city.

435
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was fun because I played today State and

436
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:42,280
Speaker 1: we had a hell of a run in ninety six

437
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: to the Rose Bowl. Damn near made it to the

438
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:47,360
Speaker 1: National champ or basically, we're playing for the national championship.

439
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: We lost that game, and then I get drafted Arizona.

440
00:21:49,960 --> 00:21:51,840
Speaker 1: It was like the last place I wanted to really be.

441
00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 1: I was like, get me out of here. I won't

442
00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,080
Speaker 1: ready to go somewhere else. But then it ended up

443
00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 1: being such a blessing to just move down the street

444
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 1: and I had all my support casts around me. I

445
00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:01,280
Speaker 1: could still go to ash you, I knew where all

446
00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 1: the good restaurants were. I had people that were already fans.

447
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:08,360
Speaker 1: I'd go out. Couldn't get a meal in college. I'm

448
00:22:08,359 --> 00:22:10,520
Speaker 1: now pro, and I got money. Now I'm getting free

449
00:22:10,600 --> 00:22:13,879
Speaker 1: meals everywhere and everything given to me. And it was

450
00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:15,920
Speaker 1: a lot of fun. And I was able to get

451
00:22:15,920 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 1: in and start right away my rookie year, which was

452
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: also awesome. I didn't really want to, Like I said,

453
00:22:20,960 --> 00:22:23,679
Speaker 1: I didn't plan to play thirteen, fourteen, fifteen years. I

454
00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 1: just wanted to get a Super Bowl ring and then

455
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:29,360
Speaker 1: be done. And we put it together in ninety eight.

456
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 1: We had a lot of really really awesome football players

457
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:37,240
Speaker 1: on the team. Jamiir Miller, Larry Sinners, Lomas Brown, Ronnie McKinnon,

458
00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,760
Speaker 1: Kwame Laster. I mean, we had a lot of good players.

459
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:43,280
Speaker 1: We jailed together. We won four straight to end that season.

460
00:22:43,359 --> 00:22:46,000
Speaker 1: I resigned my rookie contract for what was the biggest

461
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,600
Speaker 1: contract in the league at the time, and I'm like,

462
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: on my birthday, they're renegotiating the contract and it's a

463
00:22:52,119 --> 00:22:54,080
Speaker 1: Friday night. That's my night. I got to get sleep.

464
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,359
Speaker 1: My agent kept calling me. I'm like, yo, I got

465
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,439
Speaker 1: to get some sleep. Stop calling me. I Well got

466
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:01,800
Speaker 1: them at nine million. I'm like, what do you what? Good?

467
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,840
Speaker 1: Let's where do we sign? Calls me at like eleven thirty.

468
00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,119
Speaker 1: We got them to fifteen million. I'm like fifteen million,

469
00:23:08,200 --> 00:23:12,159
Speaker 1: what Like that's signing bonus? Like holy shit, this is

470
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:14,119
Speaker 1: ninety eight, my second year in the league. And so

471
00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, it's about to get real now, you know.

472
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 1: And so we ended up making the playoffs that year.

473
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,520
Speaker 1: Then we kind of tanked, had some some let go

474
00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 1: of a lot of really good players. Management made a

475
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,080
Speaker 1: few bad decisions. I pressed through some injuries I should

476
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:29,800
Speaker 1: have taken time and kind of struggled for a few years.

477
00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,919
Speaker 1: So while it sucked and it wasn't fun losing, it

478
00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 1: was also really good learning to understand like who I was. Like,

479
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: I still came to the to the facility to put

480
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: in the work. I still worked my ass off in

481
00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: the off season. I still went every practice. I watched

482
00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 1: all the film and I knew who the guys were

483
00:23:46,840 --> 00:23:49,640
Speaker 1: doing that with me. Yet we just couldn't quite put

484
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:53,480
Speaker 1: that together in Arizona. And I still, you know, grateful

485
00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:56,800
Speaker 1: for the bid will so give me that opportunity. You know,

486
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,800
Speaker 1: my standing down in the valley is pretty good. You know,

487
00:23:58,840 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 1: I go down there and people take good care, so

488
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,359
Speaker 1: I don't regret any of it. But it was hard

489
00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:06,639
Speaker 1: to lose thirteen games in a season and and b

490
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:09,639
Speaker 1: and be it take every snap. I took every single

491
00:24:09,640 --> 00:24:13,080
Speaker 1: snap that And that's that's hard. When you're throwing balls,

492
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,520
Speaker 1: when you're down by twenty one, you're going to throw

493
00:24:15,520 --> 00:24:17,520
Speaker 1: some interceptions. So I threw a lot of picks when

494
00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:19,639
Speaker 1: I was trying to just make a play that I

495
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: shouldn't have. But that's okay. I was still I was fighting.

496
00:24:22,520 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 2: Where did your where'd your speed and in ability? Your

497
00:24:25,760 --> 00:24:26,920
Speaker 2: running ability come from?

498
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,520
Speaker 1: Speed? Thank you for that. It was really nice of you.

499
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:31,720
Speaker 1: Mostly fear.

500
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:33,880
Speaker 2: Life.

501
00:24:34,160 --> 00:24:38,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, man, there's like speed when you're running on

502
00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,800
Speaker 1: a forty yard dash and then there's game speed. And

503
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,120
Speaker 1: so I remember one time LeVar Arrington, I mean Levar's

504
00:24:44,359 --> 00:24:46,560
Speaker 1: big as I mean, he came out close to when

505
00:24:46,600 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 1: I was. We played against each other a lot. His

506
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:50,720
Speaker 1: forty time was like I think he ran in the

507
00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:52,879
Speaker 1: low four sixes, maybe four to five. Mine at the

508
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:55,879
Speaker 1: combine was four to seven. Yet one time he's chasing

509
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 1: me and he did not catch me. And that is fear.

510
00:24:58,520 --> 00:25:00,400
Speaker 1: That is me to say no, I don't want to hit.

511
00:25:00,560 --> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: So you know, growing up, I was the youngest of

512
00:25:03,880 --> 00:25:06,439
Speaker 1: two older brothers, so I learned real quick how to

513
00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:08,920
Speaker 1: dodge stuff. Like they would throw stuff at me or

514
00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,800
Speaker 1: come after me because I wasn't doing what they wanted.

515
00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 1: So I got nifty and shifty and able to move.

516
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:18,280
Speaker 1: And it was always active. I never sat around riding

517
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:22,080
Speaker 1: my bike, jumping on the trampoline, climbing trees, throwing rocks

518
00:25:22,119 --> 00:25:24,239
Speaker 1: at anything he wanted to, Like I mean, it was.

519
00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: I grew up just active and as far as like

520
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:30,040
Speaker 1: quickness and all that, my dad was a really good athlete,

521
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,040
Speaker 1: so it was my mom. Although they didn't play a

522
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,160
Speaker 1: lot of sports in an organized way, but my dad

523
00:25:34,240 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: was a state champ in Idaho a handball for a

524
00:25:38,400 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: couple of years and in Washington State. So like my

525
00:25:40,440 --> 00:25:43,320
Speaker 1: dad was athletic and he was fast. My brothers were

526
00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:46,479
Speaker 1: both very fast, very good athletes. So man, if it

527
00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:48,639
Speaker 1: wasn't ping pong, we were playing hacky sack, we were

528
00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 1: playing tennis, we were just playing dodgeball, whatever it was.

529
00:25:52,040 --> 00:25:55,080
Speaker 1: We were always doing stuff. So I never I never

530
00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:58,199
Speaker 1: went and trained for quarterbacking. I mean, we were just

531
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 1: playing ball all the time. My quickness and all the

532
00:26:01,320 --> 00:26:03,119
Speaker 1: shiftiness and all that, Like I said, it's just like

533
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,000
Speaker 1: probably honed that on the playgrounds at Pierce Park Elementary

534
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:11,000
Speaker 1: School playing playing tackle five hundreds. Man, not let them

535
00:26:11,040 --> 00:26:11,359
Speaker 1: catch me.

536
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:19,119
Speaker 2: Uh five AFC Championship versus Steelers, opportunity to go to

537
00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 2: the super Bowl, you said earlier, you know, you played

538
00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:22,359
Speaker 2: this game to win a super Bowl. Talk to us

539
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:24,440
Speaker 2: about that run and then that experienced versus Steelers.

540
00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:27,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was amazing, man, that that season we had.

541
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,680
Speaker 1: I mean to play for an organization like the Broncos,

542
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 1: who they're in it every year. When I got here,

543
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:36,320
Speaker 1: the conversation of a Super Bowl was actually legit, and uh,

544
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:41,960
Speaker 1: you know, making the playoffs getting there with that opportunity.

545
00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:44,080
Speaker 1: You know, the first year we made it, got beat

546
00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 1: by Peyton and the Colts. The next year, same thing.

547
00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:48,719
Speaker 1: Then that third year it all came together. We had

548
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,520
Speaker 1: a team we had I mean, there's already a few

549
00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,160
Speaker 1: Hall of famers off that team that I was playing with.

550
00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 1: It was tough. It was really tough to lose at

551
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:03,720
Speaker 1: home to the Steelers when I was right there AFC

552
00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,760
Speaker 1: Championship week. When it happens, there's always this little feeling

553
00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 1: of like there's that little teeny bit of like did

554
00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 1: I go? Did I leave too soon? I have tried

555
00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:13,960
Speaker 1: to go a little one more or two more to

556
00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:16,160
Speaker 1: try to get it. But then I'm like, no, I'm good.

557
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,199
Speaker 1: I got to there. That was That's pretty sweet for

558
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:21,280
Speaker 1: a kid from Boise, Idaho. That was one hundred and

559
00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 1: seventy pounds when I got to Asu. Yeah, I did

560
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:27,880
Speaker 1: all right. So it was fun. I made a lot

561
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,240
Speaker 1: of you know, great memories and my standing here in Denver.

562
00:27:31,280 --> 00:27:34,119
Speaker 1: You know, the John told me, John Elway told me

563
00:27:34,119 --> 00:27:36,080
Speaker 1: when I got here. If you play hard and you

564
00:27:36,160 --> 00:27:38,480
Speaker 1: go out there every day and you grind and you

565
00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:41,040
Speaker 1: do it during it, it might not be pretty sometimes,

566
00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,880
Speaker 1: but when you're done and you're afterwards, they're gonna love

567
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 1: you forever. And he was not lying. Man, fans here

568
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,159
Speaker 1: treat me so well, and it's a great city to

569
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 1: have played in. Now I live, I live in the area,

570
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,680
Speaker 1: so very blessed to be here in Colorado.

571
00:27:54,440 --> 00:28:00,000
Speaker 2: Jerry Jones denied a link between CTE and football. You

572
00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:04,840
Speaker 2: push back on that, just thoughts. I mean, obviously now

573
00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:07,000
Speaker 2: it's more talked about. You mentioned Junior say how and

574
00:28:07,160 --> 00:28:09,919
Speaker 2: how he took his life, and we're seeing day by

575
00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,240
Speaker 2: day from the movie Concussion that Will Smith did and

576
00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:13,879
Speaker 2: it's just more talked about.

577
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: Now.

578
00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 2: Was it something that was talked about while you were

579
00:28:16,640 --> 00:28:20,280
Speaker 2: playing or was this more post career in CTE.

580
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was post career because I can remember times guys.

581
00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,920
Speaker 3: Jared been tripping, I'm a cowboy, Frian, I'm Jack k

582
00:28:27,119 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 3: J been tripping.

583
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,399
Speaker 1: You know, I've said some choice words about Jerry, and

584
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,680
Speaker 1: I don't I don't take anything back that I say.

585
00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:36,359
Speaker 1: You know, my mom would say maybe you could have

586
00:28:36,359 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: worded it differently. But a guy with that much influence

587
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,800
Speaker 1: and that much money to say that just seems to

588
00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:47,360
Speaker 1: me like whether CTE is a most people that may

589
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: think that are worried about getting it probably don't even

590
00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: know how to say what those CTE stands for chronic

591
00:28:52,600 --> 00:28:57,360
Speaker 1: traumatic encephalopathy. It's this thaying a doctor made up to

592
00:28:57,480 --> 00:29:00,840
Speaker 1: describe what happens your brain when you get either concussed

593
00:29:00,960 --> 00:29:03,680
Speaker 1: or subconcuss and blows over and over and over. It's

594
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,520
Speaker 1: not good for your brain to get smashed like that.

595
00:29:09,160 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 1: My thought on it is like, I can't say that

596
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:14,040
Speaker 1: I don't believe in it because that would really fire

597
00:29:14,080 --> 00:29:16,800
Speaker 1: people up, because it's legit. Like there's people, there's guys

598
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:21,160
Speaker 1: they analyzed their brains and there's parts that are gone,

599
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: that have disappeared or dead, and that's CTE. It's from trauma.

600
00:29:25,840 --> 00:29:29,120
Speaker 1: Me on the other hand, and what I am now feeling,

601
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:33,680
Speaker 1: I'm called to and so blessed to have followed this path,

602
00:29:34,400 --> 00:29:38,160
Speaker 1: had friends like Dell and met others like Rashad Evans

603
00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:40,680
Speaker 1: that have been in a brutal sport too, that have

604
00:29:40,760 --> 00:29:44,720
Speaker 1: benefited who's a partner of ours. It's like, here's a

605
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,520
Speaker 1: chance to maybe find something to give these guys hope

606
00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: rather than oh man, you better get your concussion settlement,

607
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:54,840
Speaker 1: get total and permanent, because look what we got to

608
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: deal with. And it's no doubt our bodies are are

609
00:29:58,840 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: put through more stress the common person. But there's a

610
00:30:01,960 --> 00:30:04,520
Speaker 1: lot of humans that are active that have had concussions

611
00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 1: and put their body if they're a construction worker, through

612
00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: a lot of damage too. So if with athletes we

613
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,280
Speaker 1: can we join together, we do the right things, we

614
00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,080
Speaker 1: do some studies. We're actually we're actually putting together a

615
00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 1: study right now with former players to test functional mushrooms

616
00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 1: and peptides and see if we can reverse cognitive decline

617
00:30:24,920 --> 00:30:28,160
Speaker 1: and physical dysfunction. We got to get data back before

618
00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,840
Speaker 1: anybody listens. So if we get the right data back

619
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,040
Speaker 1: and we show we can maybe improve some of these guys'

620
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:38,920
Speaker 1: cognitive abilities or things they're worried about. Because sometimes I

621
00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:41,200
Speaker 1: don't remember where I put my wallet. Does that mean

622
00:30:41,240 --> 00:30:45,880
Speaker 1: I got CTE or dementia? No, happens. We're not supposed

623
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 1: to be perfect all the time. But if you're in

624
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:49,920
Speaker 1: that mode and you're thinking, oh shit, I had twenty

625
00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:52,880
Speaker 1: concussions and I don't remember right now where I'm supposed

626
00:30:52,880 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: to go, oh no, and that can be a snowball

627
00:30:56,360 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 1: that just goes downhill fast. So I want to give

628
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,520
Speaker 1: these guys hope, give them hope that this is nature

629
00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:03,840
Speaker 1: and if I can bring this to you, man, here

630
00:31:03,880 --> 00:31:06,040
Speaker 1: it is, take it. I don't want anything for this.

631
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:07,920
Speaker 1: I just want you to feel better and have hope

632
00:31:07,960 --> 00:31:10,920
Speaker 1: that we can live a better life, feel better, think clearer,

633
00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,800
Speaker 1: and maybe reverse this narrative that we're told that we're

634
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,640
Speaker 1: given and not really given much of an answer for

635
00:31:17,920 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 1: through the powers that be. You know, Jerry Jones maybe

636
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 1: one of those guys to like make a difference. Let's

637
00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,959
Speaker 1: let's research this. You got money, Let's put it down,

638
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 1: Let's have some Let's put it down and study this

639
00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 1: with the clinical trials that we need to prove to

640
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,120
Speaker 1: the rest of them of America that this is legitimate,

641
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: a legitimate way to help people thrive and have health

642
00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:44,160
Speaker 1: and wellness. That's what That's what I'm here to do.

643
00:31:44,480 --> 00:31:47,320
Speaker 3: Where can I get a out of application to be

644
00:31:47,520 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 3: one of your lab rats? Y'all?

645
00:31:49,840 --> 00:31:50,000
Speaker 1: Can?

646
00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 3: I will try everything, and y'all, can you know use me?

647
00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,240
Speaker 3: And you know I want to sign up.

648
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:57,560
Speaker 1: Let's do it, man, we will get This is how

649
00:31:57,600 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: we get there. It's like I'm doing the study. Now

650
00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:01,480
Speaker 1: we get the right numbers. Now we take it out

651
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 1: and we get the funding, we get the people, and

652
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 1: if Umbo does well, that's really what we're doing. We're

653
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,360
Speaker 1: a cause driven company. What we want to do is

654
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 1: take nature and profiteer from it. But we're talking about

655
00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 1: it with the pH profiteer. We're going to get out

656
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: and speak about this so people know we're not afraid

657
00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:23,600
Speaker 1: to speak the truth of how it's helped us. And

658
00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,360
Speaker 1: if you want to come into that, that would be awesome,

659
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:28,800
Speaker 1: because I mean, if I can help you feel better,

660
00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 1: what better thing than my life can I do? That's

661
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:34,040
Speaker 1: a gift because I used to do it by just

662
00:32:34,080 --> 00:32:36,960
Speaker 1: smiling and signing an autograph. I make a little kid

663
00:32:37,040 --> 00:32:40,400
Speaker 1: go over the moon. Now I can possibly help somebody

664
00:32:40,400 --> 00:32:43,480
Speaker 1: get off the couch, have a little less pain, maybe

665
00:32:43,520 --> 00:32:47,600
Speaker 1: think a little clearer, be all right with like aging gracefully,

666
00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:51,520
Speaker 1: think about longevity and vitality as the same thing together.

667
00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:53,600
Speaker 1: Like let's let's let's picture that future.

668
00:32:54,160 --> 00:32:57,560
Speaker 2: Hm, I love. I mean I just think in closing,

669
00:32:57,640 --> 00:32:59,760
Speaker 2: you know, getting a chance to obviously be a fan

670
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:01,440
Speaker 2: of a far from you because I didn't know you

671
00:33:01,600 --> 00:33:03,320
Speaker 2: talking to your partner Dale and then what was your

672
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:05,800
Speaker 2: buddy's name? At the the New Everything the Google.

673
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:07,440
Speaker 1: Same shame Wizard the Wizard.

674
00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 2: I just love that obviously, the passion you guys speak

675
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:15,080
Speaker 2: with and the willingness and wanting to help. It's not

676
00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,920
Speaker 2: to make a profit, it's to to to live longer.

677
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:20,720
Speaker 2: You know, Dale's was out there talking to me before

678
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:22,680
Speaker 2: we came. My goal is to have people living one

679
00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:24,880
Speaker 2: hundred hundred and twenty hundred and fifty years from this

680
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 2: kind of stuff. And I just think that's so dope,

681
00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,320
Speaker 2: especially in today's day and age, because everything is about

682
00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 2: the bottom line, and you guys are doing it for

683
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:32,960
Speaker 2: a different reason. And that's why, you know, I wish

684
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: you guys the best with this, because you guys are

685
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 2: genuinely out here trying to help people and and and

686
00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 2: that's from kids to our grandparents. And just really want

687
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:42,800
Speaker 2: to commence you guys for your work and thank you.

688
00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:43,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, along with.

689
00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:45,400
Speaker 2: Jack, I definitely want to test some things out for

690
00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 2: you guys to see if we can help get to

691
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:48,160
Speaker 2: that to that ultimate goal.

692
00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, man, I mean thank you. Like I said that,

693
00:33:50,960 --> 00:33:53,920
Speaker 1: having an audience like you're providing to share this story,

694
00:33:53,960 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 1: I mean, that's really what it's about. We can we

695
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:58,800
Speaker 1: we're doing what we're doing, but the more people hear

696
00:33:58,840 --> 00:34:03,760
Speaker 1: this and not everybody's listening. Not everybody's willing to listen. Once.

697
00:34:04,040 --> 00:34:06,360
Speaker 2: He always saying, once it's a conversation, once it starts

698
00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,640
Speaker 2: being a real conversation, I think that's when things start

699
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,320
Speaker 2: to move now that it's a conversation. So this is

700
00:34:11,360 --> 00:34:11,840
Speaker 2: your closing.

701
00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:13,360
Speaker 1: Go ahead, one one thing, Jack.

702
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 5: After Over at the farm you spoke about you talked

703
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,200
Speaker 5: about the black and brown communities to be affected by

704
00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:22,719
Speaker 5: sicknesses in their environments, whether that be like the Detroit

705
00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:25,640
Speaker 5: situation with water just for people you know in the

706
00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,520
Speaker 5: black and brown communities are still maybe apprehensive about mushrooms.

707
00:34:29,719 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 5: Can you talk about like how like we have what

708
00:34:32,719 --> 00:34:35,000
Speaker 5: we discussed over on the farmhouse, like they help some

709
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:37,880
Speaker 5: of the communities who are being sickened by there just

710
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:41,040
Speaker 5: the environments they are in from either big companies or industry.

711
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:44,839
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean there's a lot of chemical runoff and

712
00:34:44,920 --> 00:34:47,280
Speaker 1: toxins that are left over a lot of these big cities.

713
00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:51,560
Speaker 1: And it's not it's not usually where white people are living.

714
00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:54,200
Speaker 1: It's people of color, and they're having a lot of

715
00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:57,200
Speaker 1: sickness and maladies from from these toxins that have been

716
00:34:57,280 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 1: dumped into the soil. And there's there's ways to get

717
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,920
Speaker 1: rid of it, you know, scoop it out, take us

718
00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,759
Speaker 1: somewhere else, but that uncovers a lot of dust and

719
00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 1: a lot of still more. It's putting it out in

720
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,799
Speaker 1: the air. And this is micro remediation. So we've spent

721
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:14,200
Speaker 1: a lot of time talking about mushrooms for physical and

722
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 1: mental health, where we haven't even scratched the surface on

723
00:35:18,160 --> 00:35:20,560
Speaker 1: a lot of people doing the work for micro remediation,

724
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 1: for cleaning up the water with the use of mycilium,

725
00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:29,200
Speaker 1: or mushrooms like the oyster mushroom that has already shown

726
00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:34,799
Speaker 1: and been gone through trials where it is removing toxins

727
00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:40,759
Speaker 1: and PCBs and diesels from the earth. It's trans biotransmuting

728
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,800
Speaker 1: it back into its body and like cleaning up our soils,

729
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,120
Speaker 1: and so these places where people are subjected to live

730
00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:52,520
Speaker 1: because they are low on the economic scale and they're sick,

731
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:56,120
Speaker 1: and no one's coming up with any answers. That's a

732
00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,319
Speaker 1: lot of these I like to just say, I guess

733
00:35:58,320 --> 00:36:01,320
Speaker 1: they're just fellow mushrooms out there trying to make a difference,

734
00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:05,879
Speaker 1: and they're making materials leather out of out of mushrooms.

735
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm still wanting to make a football out of some

736
00:36:08,160 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: mushroom leather and see if we can get that on

737
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:13,600
Speaker 1: the field on Sunday or somehow let them know, like

738
00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 1: there is a way to treat not just humans, but

739
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:20,759
Speaker 1: all living things with a little more reverence. And we're

740
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,360
Speaker 1: just scratching the surface. Man's that's the exciting part is

741
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,480
Speaker 1: we're just we're just barely stepping into this as a

742
00:36:26,480 --> 00:36:31,840
Speaker 1: as a Western society. And if I you know, whoever's listening,

743
00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 1: thank you for listening, because you know this is the future.

744
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,319
Speaker 1: I think of some health and wellness not only for us,

745
00:36:37,400 --> 00:36:40,279
Speaker 1: but for the for the grandmother Earth that we live on.

746
00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:41,920
Speaker 3: I want to I want to stay in touch with

747
00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:43,640
Speaker 3: you and the Wizard too, because he gave me some

748
00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:46,200
Speaker 3: he educated me on some stuff that have helped my

749
00:36:46,280 --> 00:36:48,080
Speaker 3: daughter with him with loops and stuff like that. So

750
00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:49,719
Speaker 3: I want to stay in touch and get some stuff too.

751
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 1: Yes, for sure, man. And that's like I said, just

Speaker 1: to read about out and hear about. And I'm glad

755
00:37:01,719 --> 00:37:04,120

756
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:08,120
Speaker 1: a higher source, right Now, Mushroom's been around forever. This

757
00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,319
