19
00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,800
Speaker 2: way ahead of schedule, it's the same thing. Like I

20
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: was sorry, excuse me, I was thinking I was watching

Speaker 2: kind of it's kind of similar, right, but I'm sitting there.

28
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 2: But regardless, it is great when the City of Nashville

29
00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,200

134
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 2: went to a haunted house over the weekend. It was

135
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 2: a Nashville nightmare. I highly reckon it. A very good spook,

136
00:06:01,520 --> 00:06:04,159
Speaker 2: a very good scare of a nice little fright Nashville

137
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,559
Speaker 2: nightmare of nightmare in Nashville. One of those things wanted

138
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,160
Speaker 2: something like that. But hey, if you if one of

139
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:10,840

140
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 2: the lines, let the group go, and wait sixty seconds

141
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 2: before the other group goes, dude, because we were absolutely

142
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:18,800
Speaker 2: pissed at one point when we walked up on a

143
00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:20,600
Speaker 2: group and then the other group was behind us like

144
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:22,480
Speaker 2: a little group sandwich, and we were like, Yo, this

145
00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:25,320
Speaker 2: is not spooky at all. Stop trying to fucking scare us,

146
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:28,000
Speaker 2: because this is now bullshit. Now I'm pissed off. But

147
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,640
Speaker 2: other than that solid four point five spook, it was

148
00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 2: actually it was a really good time. The first one's

149
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:35,400
Speaker 2: a banger. A lot of people go there's super popular.

150
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,800
Speaker 2: Look up nightmare in Nashville. That Haunted House is very solid.

152

00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:50,119
Speaker 2: said that against CTE. I apologize. Our guest today, dude,

154
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:55,479

181
00:08:22,480 --> 00:08:25,120
Speaker 2: kind of a journeyman long snapper. He's been on eight

182
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:29,040
Speaker 2: different teams, eight different teams in three years. And to

183
00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:31,760
Speaker 2: give you guys a little perspective on what that's like,

184
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 2: my man travels around and goes to a pallethora of

185
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:37,319
Speaker 2: workouts for teams. Right he was on the Kansas City Chief,

00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 2: Seattle Seahawks, Oakland Raiders, lost in La Rams, Oakland Raiders again,

187
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:44,160
Speaker 2: Jacksonville Jaguars, Memphis Express. So not even in the NFL,

188
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 2: but the boy's still out there grinding. Washington Redskins. All

189
00:08:48,800 --> 00:08:51,600
Speaker 2: these different teams man in three years, and these aren't

190
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,679
Speaker 2: I'm not even saying teams where he worked out. He

191
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 2: worked out for plenty of other teams too. And what

192
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 2: I respect about him as I went when I was

193
00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:01,079
Speaker 2: looking him up and on his YouTube channel, Andrew East,

194
00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 2: go check him out. And also the East family, they

195
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 2: have like a billion subscribers and they're all about that

196
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 2: ooey gooey family, corny, lovey dovey stuff. But hey, I

197
00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,319
Speaker 2: fucking respect it, dude, because they're doing the damn thing.

198
00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:15,920
Speaker 2: But no, he kind of documents every time he travels around,

199
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:17,880
Speaker 2: so before he goes in and doesn't work out, he's

200
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: like got his phone in his face and kind of

201
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: backing everybody, Hey, I'm traveling here this week. It's been stressful.

202
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 2: You know, my wife is going through this, but I

203
00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:29,120
Speaker 2: had to go here. He he uh documents. After the workout,

204
00:09:29,160 --> 00:09:30,640
Speaker 2: he's like, hey, I think I killed it. They said

205
00:09:30,640 --> 00:09:32,200
Speaker 2: a lot of good things. Yeah, he got it. He's like, hey,

206
00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:33,880
Speaker 2: I made the team. And then literally like two days

207
00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:35,880
Speaker 2: letter he's like, hey I got cut. He's standing out

208
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,480
Speaker 2: on the parking lot kind of talking about it and

209
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 2: just you kind of you're kind of on this journey

210

Speaker 2: getting shuffled in and out, you don't think nothing of it.

215
00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 2: It's just like all another face in their body, you know,

216
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,760
Speaker 2: another victim taken. But you kind of get some you

217
00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,679

218
00:09:57,720 --> 00:09:59,280
Speaker 2: goes through. So go check him out. He's also got

219
00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,400

220
00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:05,880
Speaker 2: conversations and kind of where people redirect their lives and

Speaker 2: I saw that.

357
00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 3: So I've been on seven pro teams, including the Memphis

358
00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 3: team there and signed nine contracts. Ahly, dude, that's a journey,

359
00:16:05,360 --> 00:16:06,080
Speaker 3: but you know how it is.

360
00:16:06,280 --> 00:16:10,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it is a fucking journey. I mean that's

361
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:12,600
Speaker 2: how that's how it works, dude, it's like a it's

362
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:16,000
Speaker 2: like a revolving door, like guys will come in and out,

363
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:18,080
Speaker 2: and sometimes you don't know if you should get to

364
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 2: know somebody or not, because the next day they can

365
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 2: be gone. And who's the team you were there long?

366
00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 2: Who's the longest you were with the team?

367
00:16:26,000 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 3: I guess technically the Redskins?

368
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,400
Speaker 2: Really, yeah? Is the Redskins? Where you were?

369
00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,320
Speaker 3: That was my first regular season game I played, really

370
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 3: my fifty year in I played my first game.

371
00:16:36,920 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 2: I was, uh, I hate, I hate to roup because

372
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 2: I want to continue talking about that. But we have

373
00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:44,960
Speaker 2: sewn on the bus too. And Shawn's actually the superstar. No,

374
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 2: she's the Olympian gold medals and silver right, yeah, gold

375
00:16:49,480 --> 00:16:52,200
Speaker 2: and silver medalists. You were like a prodigy as a kid,

376
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 2: and you guys are coming on the bus and I

377
00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 2: was kind of telling him, I'm like, yo, uh, Andrew

378
00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 2: hit me up and he wanted to kind of collab

379
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,960
Speaker 2: and they had to come on the bus and I'm like, yeah,

380
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 2: no doubt. And I'm sitting here like figuring out how

381
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,640
Speaker 2: do I even interview both of them at the same

382
00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:12,440
Speaker 2: time because they each have such like deep level stories

383
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 2: about where stuff goes and where your journey is and

384
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,119
Speaker 2: like you do with your podcast, and uh, I'm sitting here.

385
00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:19,960
Speaker 2: I'm like, how do I even sit here and go

386
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:22,080
Speaker 2: back and forth and talk like what was it like

387
00:17:22,119 --> 00:17:26,600
Speaker 2: being a under pressure for your entire life as a gymnast?

388
00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,840
Speaker 2: And then it's like, how do you fly in and

389
00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:32,600
Speaker 2: out to every airport within within one season? How many

390
00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,639
Speaker 2: teams were you on? What were the most teams you

391
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:35,600
Speaker 2: were on within one year?

392
00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 3: Three I was on It was the Seahawks here, I

393
00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:42,520
Speaker 3: guess just to Seahawks.

394
00:17:42,960 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 2: But you went out and tried out at numerous spots.

395
00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:49,560
Speaker 1: Redskins, you signed three contracts.

396
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 3: Okay, I'll trust you. This is what cool. This is

397
00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 3: what's cool though, And I'm super thankful to have married

398
00:17:54,520 --> 00:17:57,280
Speaker 3: this chick. There's nobody else, honestly that probably would have

399
00:17:57,280 --> 00:17:59,199
Speaker 3: put up with the Shenanigans of the NFL having to

400
00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:03,679
Speaker 3: move around like at split seconds notice besides her, Like

401
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:06,400
Speaker 3: just thinking about she went pro when she was twelve

402
00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:09,800
Speaker 3: and left home and had that instability like for a

403
00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 3: long time. So it's cool just to think like how

404
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 3: that kind of worked out, you know.

405
00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like now I want to go over. I'm like,

406
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 2: you left home to go pro at twelve years old.

407
00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:23,119
Speaker 2: I did as a gymnast, and it's like, what in

408
00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,520
Speaker 2: the hell does that even entail? Like going pro at twelve.

409
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:29,280
Speaker 1: Years old, that's a good question. I signed my first

410
00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,560
Speaker 1: agent when I was twelve, so professional status and going

411
00:18:32,600 --> 00:18:35,439
Speaker 1: pro was basically like I made the United States national

412
00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:37,879
Speaker 1: team at twelve years old and then I signed an

413
00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,400
Speaker 1: agent at twelve, which sounds so ridiculous, but I would

414
00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:44,359
Speaker 1: travel to Houston once a month for a week and

415
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,199
Speaker 1: a half and train there and then go back and

416
00:18:47,240 --> 00:18:51,640
Speaker 1: forth between every country in the world and then Iowa,

417
00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:53,680
Speaker 1: which is where I lived, and then trained in Houston.

418
00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:55,200
Speaker 2: So oh my gosh.

419
00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:56,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, so NFL is nothing.

420
00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I was gonna say, it's like you say,

421
00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,280
Speaker 2: there's nobody else that can that. You having somebody like

422
00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 2: that who understands the complete business side of everything. Everybody

423
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:11,720
Speaker 2: thinks it's like such a such glamour and nice fairy

424
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,959
Speaker 2: tale like the business it's super We're all super grateful,

425
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,840
Speaker 2: like it's a blessing, like nobody gets to kind of

426
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 2: do this stuff we get to do. But at the

427
00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 2: same time, those like behind the scenes grind of an

428
00:19:23,480 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 2: athlete and just going through it and you went through it.

429
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 2: You did. You you played at Vanderbilt. Yeah, man, yeah,

435
00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: he was a strength coach Nebraska. Yeah, he was my

436
00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 2: strength coach at Nebraska all five years I was there.

437
00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:55,960
Speaker 1: You played in Nebraska?

438
00:19:56,040 --> 00:19:59,800

439
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:07,159
Speaker 2: out wondering around, but uh, yeah, there you go. But

440
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 2: I saw I knew Dobson super close with Dobson because

441
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 2: he was like he was there the whole time I

442
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 2: was in Nebraska, and then in some off seasons I

443
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,400
Speaker 2: would come back and kind of consult if I learned

444
00:20:16,400 --> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 2: anything new from him, and I would train at Bendi

445

Speaker 2: he had me speak. He had me speak to the team.

448
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:30,240
Speaker 2: I was super nervous, but uh, he had me speak

449
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 2: to the team and just kind of talk about my

450
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 2: story and some beliefs I have and how I go

451
00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:37,280

Speaker 2: was like okay, And then they introduced me and I

463
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:07,800
Speaker 2: was super Oh man, it was crazy, But yeah, I

464
00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:09,520
Speaker 2: train a Vandy I try them there every day.

465
00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:10,640
Speaker 3: Dobson does a great job.

466
00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:13,840
Speaker 2: Love do they gotta. I like the way they run

467
00:21:13,880 --> 00:21:17,760
Speaker 2: everything there. You know, it's like our root for Vandy

468
00:21:17,800 --> 00:21:20,600
Speaker 2: because I see what happens behind the scenes, like where

469
00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 2: they kind of like how hard it is to win

470
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:25,080
Speaker 2: football games at Vanderbilt with hell.

471
00:21:24,960 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, but that makes you mad. That makes me mad, though,

472
00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:30,560
Speaker 3: because you got Stanford Northwestern Duke basketball. It's like, why

473
00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:32,399
Speaker 3: can't Vandy be true?

474
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:38,600
Speaker 2: But you probably know Vandy seems to be their academic first.

475
00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,159
Speaker 2: They seem to be way harder to get in and

476
00:21:41,240 --> 00:21:45,399
Speaker 2: in school to play football, whereas Stanford will try and

477
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,520
Speaker 2: find loops and holes to get athletes to come to

478
00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:51,159
Speaker 2: Stanford and get admitted. Whereas Vandy they don't care, like

479
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:54,280
Speaker 2: you have to meet certain requirements to play at Vandy.

480
00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:55,040
Speaker 3: Which is a good thing.

481
00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:56,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, at the end of the day, it is a

482
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 2: good thing. But it's like, uh when it comes to football,

483
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:01,960
Speaker 2: Like the academic world is kind of separate from the

484
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 2: football world, and the academics kind of runs Vandy, where

485
00:22:04,880 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 2: Stanford you have sports and they probably co exist and

486
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:08,920
Speaker 2: sit at the table like, hey, how can we get

487
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,280
Speaker 2: certain guys here? Hey, how can we do this? We're

488
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 2: in Vandy. They kind of don't don't care as much,

489
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 2: so kinda they got it. They seem to have to

490
00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 2: go through a lot more. Yeah, because Dobson's is super

491
00:22:18,680 --> 00:22:21,560
Speaker 2: leanient on guys compared to Nebraska. He's like, you don't

492
00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:24,160
Speaker 2: get it, It's way different here, dude. He's like, academics

493
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:28,600
Speaker 2: take precedent way more over over Nebraska's of the world

494
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 2: and this and that, which is.

495
00:22:29,480 --> 00:22:32,640
Speaker 3: A positive surprise in Nebraska. You have a cool story

496
00:22:32,680 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 3: though undrafted free agent. Now you're what six years.

497
00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,720
Speaker 2: In yeah, going on seven, and it's crazy. A part

498
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,000
Speaker 2: of me feels a part of me feels bad not

499
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,199
Speaker 2: being as prepared for this interview because this morning my

500
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:45,800
Speaker 2: agent calls, I'm flying out to Saints tomorrow to do

501
00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:50,480
Speaker 2: a workout. Hype, dude, I'm super hype. So by the

502
00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:53,920
Speaker 2: time everybody hears this, it won't just know that this

503
00:22:53,960 --> 00:22:56,800
Speaker 2: is the day where if I potentially sign with the Saints,

504
00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,480
Speaker 2: this is the day where I'm doing a podcast with

505
00:22:59,600 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 2: you guys. So I'm like, I have a lot of

506
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:03,760
Speaker 2: anxiety right now because I kind of do this podcast.

507
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:06,520
Speaker 2: I got my crew. We kind of just wing this

508
00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:11,600
Speaker 2: shit and we're doing we're doing like all these things, dude,

509
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 2: and keeping up with it. And it's like, you know,

510
00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,320
Speaker 2: it's like a separate little business that you got to

511
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,240
Speaker 2: work on if you want it to be good, really,

512
00:23:17,560 --> 00:23:20,160
Speaker 2: and we're super committed to making it good. And then

513
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,880
Speaker 2: at the same time, I get done doing my early routine,

514
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,199
Speaker 2: like on the computer, whether it's meeting with Matt or

515
00:23:25,200 --> 00:23:28,520
Speaker 2: meeting with Ryan, or meeting with somebody about the podcast.

516
00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 2: Then you go home and I got to start packing

517
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,040
Speaker 2: and thinking about going to Vandy and get my work

518
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 2: out in and be completely all in on working out

519
00:23:37,000 --> 00:23:39,640
Speaker 2: and being focused for football. And at the same time,

520
00:23:39,680 --> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 2: I'm thinking of all these new ideas for the podcast.

521
00:23:42,000 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 2: And then I leave football, got to go get nutrition.

522
00:23:44,320 --> 00:23:46,160
Speaker 2: We might have a podcast. Today. I went home, banked

523
00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 2: out food, started a load of laundry because I gotta

524
00:23:49,119 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 2: be ready to pack tomorrow. And I'm trying to get

525
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,200
Speaker 2: all these things in order, and at the same time,

526
00:23:53,240 --> 00:23:56,480
Speaker 2: I'm playing YouTube videos of your guys these interviews to

527
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 2: try and learn a little bit of background before I

528
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:01,200
Speaker 2: sit down on an interview in here. And I'm texting

529
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:04,879
Speaker 2: with like, you know, the Rams and Redskins packer, Like

530
00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:06,600
Speaker 2: I'm texting with all these teams that kind of brief

531
00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,320
Speaker 2: them on, Hey, I'm flying out, making sure you know

532
00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 2: there's nothing there's nothing in the works, because either all

533
00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,080
Speaker 2: the teams I've kind of talked to up until this point,

534
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 2: and just a lot of anxiety going on because then

535
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 2: I could be going tomorrow and as you know, I

536
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:20,720
Speaker 2: might not leave New Orleans after tomorrow, and then I

537
00:24:20,760 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 2: got to think about how do I get tobywary Yeah

538
00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,280
Speaker 2: until February, especially in a team like New Orleans or

539
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:30,080
Speaker 2: True Breez under center right, but so a lot of anxiety.

540
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,120
Speaker 2: So I apologize on them all over the place. Right now?

541
00:24:32,160 --> 00:24:34,359
Speaker 3: Do you feel like you doing a Shawn and I

542
00:24:34,400 --> 00:24:36,920
Speaker 3: have had a lot of conversations about We've put out

543
00:24:37,119 --> 00:24:40,840
Speaker 3: YouTube videos, podcasts, everything. Do you feel like you doing

544
00:24:40,840 --> 00:24:44,919
Speaker 3: this podcast will affect your NFL career? Like say, in

545
00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,679
Speaker 3: a way say it. Coach listens to Will comptonce podcast

546
00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 3: Busting with the Boys, and they're like, oh, this guy

547
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 3: is not my type. I don't want to like you

548
00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:53,560
Speaker 3: go down to New Orleans and the guys like you

549
00:24:53,680 --> 00:24:55,240
Speaker 3: just don't vibe with him because of what he heard

550
00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:56,000
Speaker 3: on your podcast.

551
00:24:56,680 --> 00:25:00,000
Speaker 2: Potentially, but also I think we've had We've had very

552
00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:05,480
Speaker 2: We've had Arthur Smith and I get feedback from coaches

553
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 2: onto these teams that I've played on or that know

554
00:25:08,080 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 2: who I am and stuff like that, and they kind

555
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:11,360
Speaker 2: of reach out to me and talk about how much

556
00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 2: they love the podcast, and honestly, like I know what

557
00:25:15,240 --> 00:25:16,840
Speaker 2: I am at this point, Like I know I can

558
00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 2: play well, and you know how the league works, Like

559
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 2: if somebody brings me in this year, they're looking at

560
00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:25,320
Speaker 2: me as a depth special teams guy right now, right

561
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 2: unless somebody gets hurt and then they know I have

562
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,200
Speaker 2: starting experience, you know, being a captain all this stuff

563
00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,480
Speaker 2: to where it's like he can plug and play. But

564
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 2: if I don't have that opportunity to start games or

565
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:41,320
Speaker 2: play my my career prolonging even farther gets that much smaller.

566
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 2: So if I think of it from that standpoint, this

567
00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:47,919
Speaker 2: is like helping that transitional and kind of be on

568
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:51,080
Speaker 2: this journey with me and doing that. But then also

569
00:25:51,200 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 2: if somebody gets hurt and I'm playing and I'm starting

570
00:25:53,640 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 2: like the boy's gonna he's gonna play well, So then

571
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 2: you don't know if I can re up again and

572
00:25:58,600 --> 00:26:01,040
Speaker 2: get another year or another shot, you know what I mean. Yeah,

573
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:04,600
Speaker 2: So like right now, I'm just having I'm just having

574
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:07,240
Speaker 2: fun doing this stuff and knowing that I'm almost thirty,

575
00:26:07,280 --> 00:26:08,639
Speaker 2: and you know, the NFL like once you get on

576
00:26:08,680 --> 00:26:10,600
Speaker 2: the wrong side of thirty, like that's kind of the

577
00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,359
Speaker 2: age limit where guys start looking at you. You know,

578
00:26:14,400 --> 00:26:16,159
Speaker 2: how much wear and tear does he have on his body.

579
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 2: So if this were to be my last year, then

580
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 2: it doesn't necessarily bother me that I have this podcast

581
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,480
Speaker 2: or what coaches might think about it. And then if

582
00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,800
Speaker 2: I play well, it's almost like a boost and everything else.

583
00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:30,600
Speaker 2: So I'm not too worried. I would have been super

584
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 2: worried a few years back because the minute I wrote

585
00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:34,960
Speaker 2: down in my when I would journal and write down

586
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,560
Speaker 2: goals for the podcast. I was looking back on it

587
00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:38,960
Speaker 2: the other day because I was seeing how far we've

588
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:41,600
Speaker 2: kind of came, Taylor and I with the pod. I

589
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,680
Speaker 2: think it was in a journal in like twenty fifteen,

590
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 2: and it was be one of the first players active

591
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:50,840
Speaker 2: players with the podcast, be one of the first players

592
00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:52,960
Speaker 2: slash coach because I've always wont to coach football as well,

593
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:55,680
Speaker 2: be one of the first players slash coach with a podcast.

594
00:26:55,760 --> 00:26:58,120
Speaker 2: And then that podcast have a million all time downloads.

595
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,639
Speaker 2: Hey yeah, so that was like I look back on that,

596
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:04,439
Speaker 2: I'm like, man, it is crazy what is coming about

597
00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,920
Speaker 2: from actually doing that, from looking reading that from a

598
00:27:06,960 --> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 2: few years ago.

599
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,760
Speaker 3: So that's kind of you throw active player in there,

600
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:11,280
Speaker 3: just kind of throw a jab at me.

601
00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,760
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no no. You were doing your

602
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 2: thing though, while you were doing your thing though, while

603
00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 2: you were playing. I'm just thinking, like, it's unique what

604
00:27:19,400 --> 00:27:22,200
Speaker 2: we do. Like you kind of journal and have that

605
00:27:22,800 --> 00:27:26,159
Speaker 2: vlogging kind of mixed with your podcast and YouTube channel,

606
00:27:26,480 --> 00:27:29,159
Speaker 2: and you with your lifestyle of like always recording the

607
00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 2: stuff you guys are doing as you guys are doing stuff.

608
00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 2: So I think that makes it super unique.

609
00:27:34,840 --> 00:27:37,080
Speaker 3: A couple of things. One, it's gonna be sweet to

610
00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,040
Speaker 3: look back on this and see what happens with the Saints.

611
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 2: Yeah.

612
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:43,119
Speaker 3: Two, I gotta tell a quick tailor Lawan story, please

613
00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 3: do because I'm at my second My second game was

614
00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,040
Speaker 3: the Titans in Nashville, back home. It was so awesome

615
00:27:49,160 --> 00:27:51,600
Speaker 3: to like because we live here now full time. Yeah,

616
00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:53,840

Speaker 1: And then that's how I met Andrew. Was Taylor Finny

774
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:37,040
Speaker 1: was Guy East's teammate.

775
00:34:37,719 --> 00:34:38,279
Speaker 2: Oh so.

776
00:34:39,840 --> 00:34:42,239
Speaker 1: Yes, I was very.

777
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,600
Speaker 2: Hey yeah, no, no, we got to dive into that. So, guys,

778
00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:47,120
Speaker 2: teammate that you were talking about is what's his name?

779
00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 1: Taylor Finny And that's the one you were.

780
00:34:48,960 --> 00:34:49,560
Speaker 2: Making out with.

781
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:52,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Taylor puts you on Andrew Kid.

782
00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:56,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's like the last No.

783
00:34:55,560 --> 00:34:56,920
Speaker 2: Sorry, I don't want I don't want to butcher that.

784
00:34:56,960 --> 00:35:01,680
Speaker 2: Hey did Taylor did Taylor? What's Taylor? What Taylor Finny? Did?

785
00:35:01,719 --> 00:35:02,759
Speaker 2: He hook you guys up?

786
00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:07,160
Speaker 1: He approved it. He was like, you're a good guy.

787
00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:09,279
Speaker 3: This was one of those things that Sean said I

788
00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:11,000
Speaker 3: never dated Taylor. I never dated Taylor.

789
00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:12,920
Speaker 2: And then it was like it was like and you're

790
00:35:12,960 --> 00:35:14,400
Speaker 2: just thinking, like I'm not stupid.

791
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 1: It was literally an Olympic flank. And again I was

792
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:22,240
Speaker 1: a child, but everything that I heard as a child

793
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:24,200
Speaker 1: and everything that I saw as a child at the

794
00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: Olympics is yeah, it's very true.

795
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:28,759
Speaker 3: Wait is this it right here?

796
00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:33,680
Speaker 2: What? What did you there? It is Taylor Finny was

797
00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:34,120
Speaker 2: looking for.

798
00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,919
Speaker 1: Guys. This is like, hi, drama, it.

799
00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,839
Speaker 2: Doesn't matter, Like this is like, this is hilarious because

800
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 2: I remember when this article came out, not that I

801
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 2: knew all the names, but you're always like, oh, do

802
00:35:47,600 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 2: you guys see like you know the Olympic Village and

803
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 2: what goes on.

804
00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,520
Speaker 1: So we had armed guards outside our doors at the

805
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 1: Olympic Village because we were the only minors in the village.

806
00:35:56,719 --> 00:35:59,000
Speaker 1: So I don't know why I'm telling you all this.

807
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: Taylor Finny lived in the village, like in the apartment

808
00:36:03,640 --> 00:36:07,400
Speaker 1: complex I think below us, and he would always he

809
00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:09,840
Speaker 1: was always the guy that would like throw us snickers.

810
00:36:09,480 --> 00:36:11,680
Speaker 3: At night, and I was like, can we clarify it?

811
00:36:11,719 --> 00:36:16,440
Speaker 2: Says he would throw a kissing session. That sounds better

812
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 2: than he would throw you as snickers because you.

813
00:36:20,560 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 1: Guys were we would just sit on the patio and

814
00:36:24,640 --> 00:36:28,080
Speaker 1: talk every night. Yes, and became an Olympic fling. This

815
00:36:28,120 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: is really weird, guys.

816
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 2: Now, would you witness stuff that? Like when what everybody

817
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 2: thinks about the Olympic Village is that stuff? Yes, that's

818
00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:38,560
Speaker 2: a real deal.

819
00:36:38,719 --> 00:36:40,760
Speaker 1: Well, okay, you think about it. All these like elite

820
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:46,919
Speaker 1: minded athletes emotions. They've worked for so long and been

821
00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:52,000
Speaker 1: so restricted with like everything, they finished this like Olympic movement.

822
00:36:52,320 --> 00:36:54,439
Speaker 1: They've reached the epitome of their sport and now it's

823
00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,120
Speaker 1: just a free for all in every sense.

824
00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:03,400
Speaker 2: Really free in every Yeah. Wow, that's fucking crazy.

825
00:37:03,560 --> 00:37:06,400
Speaker 1: Well, and it's the Olympic village. There's no media, there's

826
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:13,279
Speaker 1: no tourists, there's it's just athletes of Olympians, a lot

827
00:37:13,320 --> 00:37:13,920
Speaker 1: of Olympians.

828
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:15,920
Speaker 2: And how many Olympic Games did you go to?

829
00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:16,719
Speaker 1: Just one?

830
00:37:17,320 --> 00:37:19,799
Speaker 2: Just one? You were going to do another one? Right

831
00:37:20,160 --> 00:37:22,040
Speaker 2: to do, but that's when you tore your knee? Yes,

832
00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:24,160
Speaker 2: what happened to your knee? And what what happened?

833
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:26,600
Speaker 1: I went skiing?

834
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 2: Is that politically correct?

835
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:30,520
Speaker 3: Oh?

836
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:31,040
Speaker 2: That's real.

837
00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 1: I didn't even get hurt in gymnastics. I was trying

838
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,799
Speaker 1: to make it come back. I went skiing. I tore

839
00:37:37,840 --> 00:37:40,520
Speaker 1: everything in my knee, a c l mc lemaniscus, a hamstring.

840
00:37:41,560 --> 00:37:44,480
Speaker 1: Holy shit, try to do a reconstruction and still come

841
00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,320
Speaker 1: back and it just wasn't working.

842
00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:49,040
Speaker 2: And you retired the week before that next Olympics. Yeah,

843
00:37:49,120 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 2: so twenty twelve.

844
00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 1: Before Olympic trials, I could have competed, but I just

845
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,280
Speaker 1: knew if I competed, and if I made the team,

846
00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:59,440
Speaker 1: which there was a good chance I was, my body

847
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,880
Speaker 1: wouldn't have lasted through the Olympics. So I bowed out.

848
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:08,120
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, yeah, how how what was that like

849
00:38:08,440 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 2: when you the moment you tore your knee skiing? I

850
00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 2: assume it's just you were just out having fun with

851
00:38:14,200 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 2: new family friends yep, family, and you knew was it

852
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:19,920
Speaker 2: a an was it an accident or something that kind

853
00:38:19,920 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 2: of just loosely slipped a freak accident.

854
00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,400
Speaker 1: My safety release on my ski was broke and I

855
00:38:25,400 --> 00:38:27,680
Speaker 1: didn't know it. I took a really small fall, but

856
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,360
Speaker 1: my ski got caught in the snow and my boot

857
00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 1: didn't come out, so I like rolled over my leg.

858
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:34,520
Speaker 2: Did you know right away?

859
00:38:34,680 --> 00:38:35,560
Speaker 1: Yeah?

860
00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 2: Were you just tears right away?

861
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,640
Speaker 1: No tears because you shock.

862
00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:41,920
Speaker 2: You didn't know at first how bad it was. You

863
00:38:42,040 --> 00:38:43,440
Speaker 2: probably thought I might have tore something.

864
00:38:44,640 --> 00:38:47,320
Speaker 1: You could I feel like as athletes, you're very aware

865
00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:48,200
Speaker 1: of your body.

866
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:49,879
Speaker 2: And you knew something was wrong.

867
00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:53,200
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean I heard a huge pop and you

868
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,360
Speaker 1: don't hear that with like a sprain or a strain.

869
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:57,600
Speaker 2: What was going through your mind?

870
00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,640
Speaker 1: What if I could never do gymnastics again?

871
00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:01,439
Speaker 2: And then like how.

872
00:39:04,239 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 1: You're really scared to tell my coach because that's the

873
00:39:06,400 --> 00:39:08,880
Speaker 1: one rule he had training was you could do anything

874
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 1: you wanted. You just couldn't ski, and yeah, were.

875
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:15,959
Speaker 2: You guys together at this point? No, No, God, Andrew

876
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:22,480
Speaker 2: wouldn't allowed that. Man. Yeah, that's that's brutal. But then

877
00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:23,600
Speaker 2: you're gonna make a comeback.

878
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: Yep.

879
00:39:24,400 --> 00:39:26,000
Speaker 2: It was that process pretty rigorous.

880
00:39:26,239 --> 00:39:28,280
Speaker 1: It was. It was the first time I had really

881
00:39:29,280 --> 00:39:31,440
Speaker 1: had a bad injury in my career. So it was

882
00:39:31,480 --> 00:39:33,520
Speaker 1: the first time I ever doubted my body, which is

883
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:36,760
Speaker 1: really hard. Like having any fear or doubt in your body,

884
00:39:36,760 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 1: I think is a huge weakness as an athlete, and

885
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,680
Speaker 1: for me, I would picture things going wrong instead of

886
00:39:42,719 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 1: like having confidence in my ability of my sport. I

887
00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,399
Speaker 1: made it all the way back to World Championships, made

888
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,960
Speaker 1: it to Olympic trials, and just I was living off

889
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,680
Speaker 1: of courtizone injections, and it just yeah, I wasn't gonna

890
00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 1: make it.

891
00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,200
Speaker 2: So I don't know about you, But you take toward

892
00:39:58,239 --> 00:40:00,920
Speaker 2: all or anything like that before games, No, yeah, like

893
00:40:01,080 --> 00:40:03,879
Speaker 2: not not quarter zone, but you're taking all these anti

894
00:40:03,920 --> 00:40:06,600
Speaker 2: in phlegmatories that are trying to mask whatever pain you

895
00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 2: have so you can go out there for the purge.

896
00:40:08,360 --> 00:40:11,279
Speaker 1: Which makes it so much worse afterwards, what's up which

897
00:40:11,320 --> 00:40:12,239
Speaker 1: makes it so much worse.

898
00:40:12,320 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're so sore, Oh, because.

899
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:18,520
Speaker 1: Your body way past what it should like be doing.

900
00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,520
Speaker 2: So what what made you think this is the time

901
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,520
Speaker 2: I should retire? Or did you did you it was

902
00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 2: a week before Olympic trials, did you know before that

903
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,000
Speaker 2: week that you were going to ultimately retire or did

904
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:31,600
Speaker 2: it kind of hit you like it was coming up

905
00:40:31,600 --> 00:40:33,880
Speaker 2: and you're like, I can't do this or I should.

906
00:40:33,600 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: Have Or I was kind of on the fence for

907
00:40:36,200 --> 00:40:38,319
Speaker 1: for quite a while, probably at least six months leading

908
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 1: up to the trials. My body was just falling apart.

909
00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:43,960
Speaker 1: And then I feel like my mind wasn't as strong,

910
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:45,640
Speaker 1: just because I was kind of losing the passion and

911
00:40:45,680 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: I had frustration with my body and the sport. So

912
00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 1: it was just it was a mix of things. But

913
00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,920
Speaker 1: a week before Olympic Trials, I remember watching so we

914
00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:57,120
Speaker 1: have two different trials. We have the United States Championships

915
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,440
Speaker 1: and then a week later as the trials. So I

916
00:40:59,440 --> 00:41:02,120
Speaker 1: competed at Championships and I saw all the other girls

917
00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:04,760
Speaker 1: coming up who had never competed at the Olympics before,

918
00:41:04,840 --> 00:41:08,239
Speaker 1: and they had so much passion and energy and just

919
00:41:08,280 --> 00:41:10,799
Speaker 1: like everything that I had in two thousand and eight

920
00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,960
Speaker 1: and I remember thinking to myself, like, I'm dreading making

921
00:41:14,000 --> 00:41:17,160
Speaker 1: the team, which I don't think is a good sign

922
00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:20,360
Speaker 1: that you should be representing your country and the biggest

923
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:21,640
Speaker 1: event in the world.

924
00:41:21,760 --> 00:41:25,440
Speaker 2: So I just kind of you say dreading meaning doubting

925
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,000
Speaker 2: if you make the team, or you're dreading like you

926
00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:28,239
Speaker 2: almost didn't want to make No.

927
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:31,440
Speaker 1: I didn't want to make the team really only because

928
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:34,640
Speaker 1: my body was falling apart, and because my body was

929
00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:36,400
Speaker 1: falling apart, my mind was falling apart.

930
00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:38,720
Speaker 2: I just want and stuff like that.

931
00:41:39,880 --> 00:41:43,840
Speaker 1: In the sense of like with gymnastics, we flip on

932
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,080
Speaker 1: a four inch beam that's four foot off the ground, right,

933
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:47,680
Speaker 1: So if you get upon a beam and you're getting

934
00:41:47,680 --> 00:41:50,600
Speaker 1: ready to do a standing you know, three sixty three sixty,

935
00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:54,919
Speaker 1: and you start doubting your ability, you get hurt. That's

936
00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:57,640
Speaker 1: like when huge injuries happen in our sport. And I

937
00:41:57,680 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 1: started doubting myself and I started these like I don't know,

938
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,520
Speaker 1: I would picture everything that could go wrong instead of

939
00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:05,200
Speaker 1: what could go right.

940
00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:07,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that when that happened, and that's.

941
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 1: Very, very scary for our sport, and I just knew

942
00:42:09,520 --> 00:42:13,439
Speaker 1: that if I made the team, I was probably going

943
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: to break at the Olympics and I just wasn't for

944
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:17,320
Speaker 1: me anymore.

945
00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,160
Speaker 2: Wow, that's crazy. I never doubt myself when I'm about

946
00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:23,319
Speaker 2: to do three sixties on a game, I've never doubt.

947
00:42:23,320 --> 00:42:25,440
Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, I'm about to murder this shit. Dude,

948
00:42:26,960 --> 00:42:30,600
Speaker 2: that's crazy. Yeah, did you did you ever doubt your

949
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:35,960
Speaker 2: decision after it happened? Like regret thinking, Okay, you went

950
00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 2: through all when did you tear you knee? What year

951
00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:38,799
Speaker 2: was it?

952
00:42:39,360 --> 00:42:41,680
Speaker 1: The year after the Olympics and nine?

953
00:42:41,840 --> 00:42:44,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then you're going because it's only every four years,

954
00:42:44,840 --> 00:42:46,880
Speaker 2: You're leading up to twenty twelve, and then you decide

955
00:42:46,880 --> 00:42:48,759
Speaker 2: to retire, and then you retired the Olympics. Go on,

956
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:50,839
Speaker 2: did you ever watch the Olympics or after? Where You're

957
00:42:50,840 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 2: ever getting that? I should have just done it because

958
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:56,919
Speaker 2: who knows, like you never get those opportunities.

959
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,800
Speaker 1: I actually went to twenty twelve and I had to commentate,

960
00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:03,560
Speaker 1: So that's where I met guy East.

961
00:43:04,239 --> 00:43:06,520
Speaker 3: That's right. She wouldn't have met me if she was competing.

962
00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, if she was, she wouldn't have met you, right.

963
00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,680
Speaker 1: Because I couldn't have gone to the scling whatever. I'm

964
00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:21,359
Speaker 1: glad I met you. I knew it was the right

965
00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:24,279
Speaker 1: decision for me. I never doubted that, Like I never

966
00:43:24,360 --> 00:43:27,239
Speaker 1: regret the decision I made. I'm very clear in my

967
00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:30,120
Speaker 1: heart that it was the right decision for me. But

968
00:43:30,200 --> 00:43:34,160
Speaker 1: I had so many people around me, sponsors, agents, parents,

969
00:43:34,200 --> 00:43:40,480
Speaker 1: even where their regret of it was almost it put

970
00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,640
Speaker 1: pressure on me, and it kind of made me doubt

971
00:43:42,680 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 1: my decision.

972
00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:47,400
Speaker 2: And theirs support for life. Yeah, I mean, everybody loved you,

973
00:43:47,400 --> 00:43:49,560
Speaker 2: you know what I mean, And I'm not saying that,

974
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,080
Speaker 2: but you're like, yeah, everybody loved me, but you feel

975
00:43:52,080 --> 00:43:55,440
Speaker 2: like everybody's so supportive of you, and you don't want

976
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:56,839
Speaker 2: to let people around you down.

977
00:43:56,960 --> 00:43:58,560
Speaker 1: Well, and inter and I have talked about this. Had

978
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:01,360
Speaker 1: I competed and made it the two does twelve games,

979
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:05,120
Speaker 1: I mean financially, I would have been set up for

980
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:07,279
Speaker 1: a long long time.

981
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:09,040
Speaker 2: By competing in twenty twelve.

982
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:12,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, very I was very well set up.

983
00:44:12,719 --> 00:44:15,080
Speaker 2: What's a number seven?

984
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 3: Don't do it?

985
00:44:16,080 --> 00:44:19,320
Speaker 2: Don't do it? Does that? Does that? Does Does something

986
00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:22,000
Speaker 2: go wrong if you bring that number up? No? Like us,

987
00:44:22,040 --> 00:44:23,839
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, you're You're used to people knowing

988
00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,759
Speaker 2: what you can make by googling you all the time.

989
00:44:26,080 --> 00:44:29,040
Speaker 2: So I'm never I never feel bad about asking people

990
00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:32,600
Speaker 2: how much how much could give? That's interesting because people

991
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 2: can come at you and just know, like everyone just

992
00:44:35,360 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 2: knows either even if they bring it up or not.

993
00:44:37,880 --> 00:44:38,440
Speaker 1: That is interesting.

994
00:44:38,440 --> 00:44:40,920
Speaker 2: They're just like if they think anything, like you know,

995
00:44:41,000 --> 00:44:44,560
Speaker 2: they it's not that everybody and whoever listens. That's with

996
00:44:44,560 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 2: me all the time. It's not like I sit there

997
00:44:45,800 --> 00:44:47,800
Speaker 2: and think like, oh, they expect me to pay for stuff,

998
00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:52,359
Speaker 2: But there's you know, if something comes if something comes down,

999
00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:57,360
Speaker 2: people know how much you make and think this doesn't

1000
00:44:57,600 --> 00:44:59,520
Speaker 2: this doesn't this wouldn't bother. Well even if we made

1001
00:44:59,560 --> 00:45:01,239
Speaker 2: him do this, it's like it's not going to affect them,

1002
00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? So me asking that, I

1003
00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,440
Speaker 2: just I literally have to know. I have zero shame.

1004
00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 2: I have zero shame. What's the number?

1005
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,319
Speaker 1: It's such a like it's such a hypothetical question. Just

1006
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,759
Speaker 1: because you have X amount of sponsors that are going

1007
00:45:12,840 --> 00:45:16,760
Speaker 1: to pay, you know, what's a minimum number at least

1008
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:17,600
Speaker 1: in the millions?

1009
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:18,600
Speaker 2: Seven?

1010
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:22,560
Speaker 1: Oh, I have no idea for I really don't know

1011
00:45:22,680 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 1: what she's saying.

1012
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,160
Speaker 3: Is this. Imagine she goes to the second Olympics and

1013
00:45:26,200 --> 00:45:32,240
Speaker 3: wins all the gold medals. So it's like commoentation jobs,

1014
00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,360
Speaker 3: you get like set up. It's not only what you

1015
00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 3: make from the sponsors that year, it's everything that comes after.

1016
00:45:37,440 --> 00:45:40,200
Speaker 2: Too, and the gym this team at that time, if

1017
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 2: I'm wrong, but it's like it that was the team

1018
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 2: that everybody wanted to follow, was the gymnast team, right,

1019
00:45:46,320 --> 00:45:49,440
Speaker 2: because you guys came after the track and steel and stuff, right,

1020
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:52,440
Speaker 2: and then it was like, hey, you know, you guys

1021
00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:55,239
Speaker 2: are on serial Bond, you guys are everything. Yeah, you

1022
00:45:55,239 --> 00:45:56,480
Speaker 2: guys were like untouchable.

1023
00:45:56,560 --> 00:46:00,319
Speaker 1: So it would have been it would have been financially amazing, amazing.

1024
00:46:00,719 --> 00:46:04,719
Speaker 1: But a week before those contracts took place, like I had,

1025
00:46:04,760 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 1: I had signed them, but they go into effect during

1026
00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,719
Speaker 1: Olympic trials, so all your prize money starts coming in

1027
00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 1: with your medals, and if you make the team, I

1028
00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:14,759
Speaker 1: had to call every single one of those sponsors and

1029
00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:16,880
Speaker 1: say I'm not going anymore.

1030
00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:19,560
Speaker 2: And you had to, or you would have had.

1031
00:46:19,480 --> 00:46:22,759
Speaker 1: To I had to, oh man. And so that's when

1032
00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:25,440
Speaker 1: like the your agents come into play and your parents

1033
00:46:25,440 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 1: come into play and they're like, are you out of

1034
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:27,800
Speaker 1: your mind?

1035
00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:29,839
Speaker 2: So you knew what you could be, what you.

1036
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,640
Speaker 1: Were walking away from, absolutely.

1037
00:46:31,239 --> 00:46:33,720
Speaker 2: And it still didn't. It still didn't even affect you, didn't.

1038
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,479
Speaker 1: I was. I was so ready to be done that

1039
00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:41,200
Speaker 1: it was the greatest decision I've ever made. But it

1040
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:43,799
Speaker 1: was the hardest decision for everyone around me.

1041
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:48,560
Speaker 2: It's interesting too, because people are so driven, like by money,

1042
00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:50,960
Speaker 2: and I was. I was talking to my girlfriend Charro

1043
00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:55,160
Speaker 2: whenever we got our first Regal Realty Regal Realty Group sponsor,

1044
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 2: whenever we got our first sponsor, my excitement for our

1045
00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:03,000
Speaker 2: first sponsor on a little check was trumped any excitement

1046
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:05,600
Speaker 2: I was having by texting about going and trying out

1047
00:47:05,600 --> 00:47:09,080
Speaker 2: for teams, because I've been telling teams no things, Like

1048
00:47:09,120 --> 00:47:11,719
Speaker 2: We've had probably six opportunities to go and try out

1049
00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:13,760
Speaker 2: for teams and we've just kind of said no thanks,

1050
00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,120
Speaker 2: save my body a little bit, like I don't need

1051
00:47:16,120 --> 00:47:18,920
Speaker 2: to go through another training camp like six years in,

1052
00:47:19,000 --> 00:47:21,960
Speaker 2: Like I have a resume. You guys, you know the NFL,

1053
00:47:22,000 --> 00:47:25,640
Speaker 2: they know if you're they can call around and get references,

1054
00:47:25,680 --> 00:47:27,239
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. So we're just kind of

1055
00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,120
Speaker 2: saying no thanks. And I'm telling charl I'm like, I'm

1056
00:47:30,160 --> 00:47:33,000
Speaker 2: hoping this gets prolonged so I can sit down and

1057
00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:36,359
Speaker 2: have conversations and build the podcast compared to going and

1058
00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:39,040
Speaker 2: making you know, a minimum for me, I think it's

1059
00:47:39,080 --> 00:47:40,960
Speaker 2: like eight or nine hundred or something like that, you

1060
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:43,080
Speaker 2: know what I mean. And it's like that little check

1061
00:47:43,120 --> 00:47:45,880
Speaker 2: I got from Regal Realty hyped me up so much.

1062
00:47:46,080 --> 00:47:48,080
Speaker 2: I remember texting to Taylor and we were just we

1063
00:47:48,080 --> 00:47:50,759
Speaker 2: were on FaceTime, just on Cloud nine, like, yo, we're

1064
00:47:50,800 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 2: doing it, We're doing it. Just something small, you know

1065
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 2: what I mean. So that's interesting to hear your perspective

1066
00:47:57,520 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 2: on knowing you're walking away from millions of dollars and

1067
00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:05,120
Speaker 2: arguably one of the better Olympic teams in the history,

1068
00:48:05,320 --> 00:48:06,200
Speaker 2: but it might not.

1069
00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:07,520
Speaker 1: Have been had I been on that team.

1070
00:48:07,680 --> 00:48:09,759
Speaker 2: You never know, that's true. I mean, I take a

1071
00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:13,800
Speaker 2: gold medal over Andrew. I'm just kidding, bro, I'm just

1072
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:14,880
Speaker 2: kidd been.

1073
00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:16,680
Speaker 3: This is this is what's amazing.

1074
00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:16,919
Speaker 2: Though.

1075
00:48:17,000 --> 00:48:20,960
Speaker 3: We walk into a mall or definitely a gymnastics gym

1076
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:25,200
Speaker 3: and little girls, I kid you, not just tears when

1077
00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:25,800
Speaker 3: they see.

1078
00:48:25,640 --> 00:48:27,759
Speaker 1: Her, they with you.

1079
00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:30,359
Speaker 3: Well no, no, but it's because like.

1080
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:32,800
Speaker 2: I mean, you've built a brand. Let's not let's not bullshit.

1081
00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:35,920
Speaker 2: I'm thinking like, okay, uh, well have andreel On, Like

1082
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:37,799
Speaker 2: I knew who you were you text me and I'm like, oh,

00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,319

1215
00:54:46,400 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: ourselves in and we like pushed the doors and are

1216
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:51,480
Speaker 1: like the chairs in front of the doors because I

1217
00:54:51,520 --> 00:54:55,319
Speaker 1: literally thought we're gonna get murdered or something. And then yeah,

1218
00:54:55,480 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: that was it. He did not I would have taken at

1219
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:01,200
Speaker 1: a different level.

1220
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:04,960
Speaker 2: No, okay, so then she didn't hanger. Yeah, yeah, I

1221
00:55:04,960 --> 00:55:06,319
Speaker 2: don't want to go farther now. I want to hear

1222
00:55:06,360 --> 00:55:07,960
Speaker 2: any of your parts of some of the games she

1223
00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:09,600
Speaker 2: might some of the holes she might be missing. Is

1224
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:12,600
Speaker 2: that all accurate? So here's the thing, and reflecting on

1225
00:55:12,640 --> 00:55:17,279
Speaker 2: your game, like what would you have done differently, what

1226
00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:19,319
Speaker 2: would you have done differently, or what did you feel

1227
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:21,359
Speaker 2: like you were doing wrong to make her so creeped out.

1228
00:55:21,480 --> 00:55:24,200
Speaker 3: So when I when there's an opportunity in front of me,

1229
00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:25,240
Speaker 3: I'm going to take.

1230
00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,719
Speaker 2: It without even knowing what your game plan is.

1231
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,840
Speaker 3: So that goes for the flight, that goes for I

1232
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:32,520
Speaker 3: would rather have a bed to sleep in than the car.

1233
00:55:33,120 --> 00:55:34,400
Speaker 3: Yeah you know what I'm saying.

1234
00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:36,680
Speaker 2: Did she pay for your plight? No?

1235
00:55:36,680 --> 00:55:38,799
Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, okay, no my dad did.

1236
00:55:38,920 --> 00:55:46,880

1402
01:03:37,960 --> 01:03:40,200
Speaker 3: by the Chiefs in twenty fifteen, so we got engaged

1403
01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:44,520

1407
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:55,560

1408
01:03:55,720 --> 01:03:56,400
Speaker 3: long snappers.

1409
01:03:56,560 --> 01:03:59,760

1468
01:06:19,120 --> 01:06:21,480
Speaker 2: of shit. It's freaking full circle looking back where you

1469
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:21,880
Speaker 2: came from.

1470
01:06:21,960 --> 01:06:22,760

Speaker 3: She's great. Check her out all right, she has her

1477
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:39,840
Speaker 3: own podcast too. Anyway, So we started making videos and

1478
01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:42,840
Speaker 3: then it took us about a year to really like

1479
01:06:43,360 --> 01:06:46,240
Speaker 3: start gaining momentum on that, and then it became like

1480
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:48,439
Speaker 3: a legit thing. And now that's that is like our

1481
01:06:48,920 --> 01:06:51,920
Speaker 3: that's what we spend most of our time doing in football,

1482
01:06:52,160 --> 01:06:54,520
Speaker 3: and her speaking are like side gigs at this point.

1483
01:06:55,080 --> 01:06:56,400
Speaker 2: Love that isn't that awesome?

1484
01:06:56,520 --> 01:06:56,920
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1485
01:06:57,200 --> 01:07:01,880
Speaker 2: And so so with YouTube, was it mainly was it

1486
01:07:02,040 --> 01:07:04,440
Speaker 2: always both of you? Was there more of a focus

1487
01:07:04,480 --> 01:07:07,320
Speaker 2: on her at first because she was she's you know

1488
01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:08,080
Speaker 2: Sean Johnson.

1489
01:07:08,200 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, Look I don't know a lot about marketing,

1490
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:13,439
Speaker 3: but I do know that there was a lot more

1491
01:07:13,600 --> 01:07:16,160
Speaker 3: people searching for her than there was. No question, Yeah,

1492
01:07:16,160 --> 01:07:16,920
Speaker 3: it is mostly her.

1493
01:07:17,240 --> 01:07:19,680
Speaker 2: And then for you was it You always knew you

1494
01:07:19,720 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 2: were just going to kind of document your whole run

1495
01:07:21,600 --> 01:07:22,160
Speaker 2: on everything.

1496
01:07:22,520 --> 01:07:25,360
Speaker 3: So we started vlogging. We did like this collab with

1497
01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:28,680
Speaker 3: this family who like filmed twenty minutes other day every

1498
01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:30,680
Speaker 3: single day, and that was like two months into us

1499
01:07:30,680 --> 01:07:32,880
Speaker 3: doing YouTube, and so I saw, like I didn't know

1500
01:07:32,920 --> 01:07:35,520
Speaker 3: that daily vlogging was a thing. I didn't watch much

1501
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:37,480
Speaker 3: of YouTube before then, and so I was like, I

1502
01:07:37,480 --> 01:07:39,400
Speaker 3: saw what they were doing. I was like, well, maybe

1503
01:07:39,400 --> 01:07:41,600
Speaker 3: it'd be cool if I documented behind the scenes of

1504
01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:44,720
Speaker 3: me trying to make an NFL team, and like, cause

1505
01:07:44,720 --> 01:07:47,400
Speaker 3: I'm doing workouts like every week, every other week.

1506
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:48,479
Speaker 2: Fucking crazy, you know what I'm saying.

1507
01:07:48,640 --> 01:07:51,200
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, And I was and as a little kid

1508
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:53,960
Speaker 3: coming out out of middle school, high school, like you

1509
01:07:54,000 --> 01:07:55,960
Speaker 3: just think of the NFL. You think Peyton Manning, these

1510
01:07:55,960 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 3: guys that are locked into one team for for ten years,

1511
01:07:58,360 --> 01:08:00,760
Speaker 3: you know, yeah, you don't see you don't see guys

1512
01:08:00,800 --> 01:08:02,320
Speaker 3: like me. So I was like, this would be interesting

1513
01:08:02,320 --> 01:08:04,640
Speaker 3: to document. Plus I want to show it to my

1514
01:08:04,720 --> 01:08:07,680
Speaker 3: kids to show them that I'm a boss. And I

1515
01:08:07,720 --> 01:08:09,280
Speaker 3: was like, trying out for NFL tas you know what

1516
01:08:09,280 --> 01:08:11,200
Speaker 3: I'm saying, I feel even if I never actually like

1517
01:08:11,280 --> 01:08:13,600
Speaker 3: played in the game. So I started doing that and

1518
01:08:13,600 --> 01:08:15,320
Speaker 3: then it's like, now turned into this whole thing.

1519
01:08:15,480 --> 01:08:18,640
Speaker 2: So is there more in between that's turned into this

1520
01:08:18,720 --> 01:08:23,120
Speaker 2: whole thing? So what was your guys' process about kind

1521
01:08:23,120 --> 01:08:24,880
Speaker 2: of growing the YouTube because we're new to it too,

1522
01:08:24,960 --> 01:08:26,600
Speaker 2: so fucking any tips.

1523
01:08:28,240 --> 01:08:28,800
Speaker 1: Collapse?

1524
01:08:29,360 --> 01:08:29,839
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1525
01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:35,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was very anti social media when he started YouTube.

1526
01:08:35,200 --> 01:08:38,200
Speaker 2: Right when you guys started, were you very nervous about

1527
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:40,559
Speaker 2: people being in your lives like that? And then also

1528
01:08:40,600 --> 01:08:41,559
Speaker 2: commenting all the time?

1529
01:08:41,680 --> 01:08:43,960
Speaker 1: She already had it, so I had it, But I

1530
01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:47,160
Speaker 1: had come from the sports entertainment world where like you

1531
01:08:47,240 --> 01:08:50,280
Speaker 1: signed with Coca Cola, and Coca Cola says, you can't

1532
01:08:50,280 --> 01:08:53,599
Speaker 1: say this, you can't wear this. You can't. I mean,

1533
01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:57,920
Speaker 1: it's it's very strict, and with YouTube, it's not strict

1534
01:08:57,920 --> 01:09:00,519
Speaker 1: at all. You just show your actual life. And I

1535
01:09:00,560 --> 01:09:03,360
Speaker 1: had never done that before, and I felt like I

1536
01:09:03,400 --> 01:09:06,439
Speaker 1: was like moving into a world that was my own

1537
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:08,679
Speaker 1: that the world had never seen before.

1538
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:12,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I hated that, right and and yeah, I

1539
01:09:12,320 --> 01:09:15,439
Speaker 2: mean you say like used to it because we're in

1540
01:09:15,479 --> 01:09:17,439
Speaker 2: a spotlight, but it's in a spotlight of our comfort

1541
01:09:17,520 --> 01:09:20,519
Speaker 2: zone playing a sport for like when we were dropping

1542
01:09:20,520 --> 01:09:22,400
Speaker 2: our first ones. I'm sure you guys probably have the

1543
01:09:22,439 --> 01:09:26,360
Speaker 2: same feeling, like when it's your own thing and you're

1544
01:09:27,080 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 2: you drop it and then you're just kind of refreshing,

1545
01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:31,960
Speaker 2: like seeing like you're seeing people comment on things that

1546
01:09:32,439 --> 01:09:35,800
Speaker 2: you're not a pure professional in, which I think is

1547
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:37,280
Speaker 2: also at the same time, what makes it what it

1548
01:09:37,360 --> 01:09:40,960
Speaker 2: is because it's like raw, it's you're getting, it's shit's organic,

1549
01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:43,040
Speaker 2: like people are kind of along the journey with you.

1550
01:09:43,160 --> 01:09:46,040
Speaker 2: But no, it's crazy sport.

1551
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:48,920
Speaker 1: If someone critiques you, you like you know in your heart,

1552
01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:51,080
Speaker 1: you're like, oh you're wrong, Like I know my ability,

1553
01:09:51,160 --> 01:09:54,000
Speaker 1: my talent, right, But if someone like critiques your real life,

1554
01:09:54,040 --> 01:09:56,559
Speaker 1: you're kind of like, oh am I doing this?

1555
01:09:56,640 --> 01:09:56,840
Speaker 2: Right?

1556
01:09:57,000 --> 01:10:01,479
Speaker 1: Yeah? So it's just it's more vulnerable and weird. But

1557
01:10:02,000 --> 01:10:04,639
Speaker 1: we've kind of figured it out a little bit.

1558
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:07,080
Speaker 2: And how long has the YouTube channel been going on

1559
01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:10,000
Speaker 2: since twenty fifteen?

1560
01:10:10,120 --> 01:10:11,120
Speaker 3: About three years? Yeah?

1561
01:10:11,160 --> 01:10:14,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, was the YouTube channel called the East Fam

1562
01:10:14,720 --> 01:10:17,080
Speaker 2: The East Fam and you have your own as well.

1563
01:10:16,920 --> 01:10:19,280
Speaker 3: Too, right, yeah, that's where I put my podcasts.

1564
01:10:19,000 --> 01:10:21,320
Speaker 2: So East Fam, And then what's your podcast?

1565
01:10:21,680 --> 01:10:24,720
Speaker 3: My podcast is called Redirected, but my YouTube channel is

1566
01:10:24,720 --> 01:10:25,479
Speaker 3: just Andrew East.

1567
01:10:25,800 --> 01:10:27,519
Speaker 2: Talk a little bit about your podcast before you ask

1568
01:10:27,560 --> 01:10:28,040
Speaker 2: me a question.

1569
01:10:28,200 --> 01:10:30,240
Speaker 3: So, like I mentioned, I thought I was going to

1570
01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:32,439
Speaker 3: come out of college, come out of Indy and play

1571
01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:35,519
Speaker 3: ten years in the NFL, signed with the Chiefs, get cut,

1572
01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,800
Speaker 3: and now I have to find something completely different to do.

1573
01:10:38,960 --> 01:10:40,479
Speaker 3: And I had no idea what that was going to be.

1574
01:10:40,880 --> 01:10:43,080
Speaker 3: And I realized, like when I was coming up with

1575
01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:45,960
Speaker 3: the concept for my show, that everybody kind of has

1576
01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 3: these interesting pivots in life where they're forced with the

1577
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:51,320
Speaker 3: decision to like do what they want to do and

1578
01:10:51,360 --> 01:10:54,160
Speaker 3: pursue like like you with this podcast, or like kind

1579
01:10:54,160 --> 01:10:56,519
Speaker 3: of just go with the flow of how life's taking them.

1580
01:10:56,800 --> 01:10:58,680
Speaker 3: And so I sit down with people and talk to

1581
01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:01,160
Speaker 3: them about the interesting piviot pivots or I call them

1582
01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:03,880
Speaker 3: redirections that they've had. So we talked with like, you know,

1583
01:11:04,040 --> 01:11:06,439
Speaker 3: Sean Booth, who like was on the reality show and

1584
01:11:06,520 --> 01:11:11,000
Speaker 3: changed his life. Talk with Luke Sanders, who was an

1585
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:13,559
Speaker 3: HVAC installer then was like I'm gonna fight in the UFC.

1586
01:11:13,600 --> 01:11:16,559
Speaker 3: So he trains for two years and actually ultimately made it.

1587
01:11:16,840 --> 01:11:18,840
Speaker 3: And it's like these kind of it's not like an

1588
01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:21,519
Speaker 3: inspirational podcast, but it's just hearing people's stories of like

1589
01:11:22,080 --> 01:11:23,800
Speaker 3: how did you get to where you are right now?

1590
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:28,000
Speaker 3: Or digital influencers, like there's YouTubers now that like we're

1591
01:11:28,120 --> 01:11:31,599
Speaker 3: working hotel front desks and now they have ten million

1592
01:11:31,640 --> 01:11:34,920
Speaker 3: subscribers on YouTube. It's like, what a different life this

1593
01:11:35,160 --> 01:11:37,000
Speaker 3: was then five years ago?

1594
01:11:37,040 --> 01:11:39,120
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying by you taking that leap exactly,

1595
01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,160
Speaker 2: finding that redirection of like going after it.

1596
01:11:41,280 --> 01:11:44,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, but here's here's a YouTube. So I actually put

1597
01:11:44,040 --> 01:11:47,040
Speaker 3: together a little we do like consulting now for Google,

1598
01:11:47,439 --> 01:11:49,080
Speaker 3: and I put together a little course because.

1599
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:50,639
Speaker 2: I go ahead.

1600
01:11:51,240 --> 01:11:54,160
Speaker 3: They did this survey for like younger millennials and there's

1601
01:11:54,200 --> 01:11:56,760
Speaker 3: thirty four percent of them want to be YouTubers when

1602
01:11:56,760 --> 01:11:58,519
Speaker 3: they grow up, and then like the second most was

1603
01:11:58,560 --> 01:12:00,680
Speaker 3: like thirty percent want to be blogged, so like all

1604
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:03,600
Speaker 3: of them want to be online doing these online careers

1605
01:12:03,640 --> 01:12:04,439
Speaker 3: kind of terrifying.

1606
01:12:04,560 --> 01:12:06,519
Speaker 2: So I was like, it is weird wondering. It makes

1607
01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:07,680
Speaker 2: you think, like where is it going to be in

1608
01:12:07,680 --> 01:12:08,720
Speaker 2: twenty thirty.

1609
01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:13,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, nuts, who knows. Yeah, But I'll put together's course

1610
01:12:13,240 --> 01:12:16,280
Speaker 3: because everybody's trying to get into it. And I feel

1611
01:12:16,320 --> 01:12:21,080
Speaker 3: like there's two misconceptions that people think wrongly about. One

1612
01:12:21,160 --> 01:12:24,160
Speaker 3: is like people don't make sharable content. So like just

1613
01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:26,720
Speaker 3: like you guys did with that Jalen Ramsey clip, like

1614
01:12:26,960 --> 01:12:31,679
Speaker 3: you got a really solid SoundBite that ultimately barstool Sports

1615
01:12:31,720 --> 01:12:33,400
Speaker 3: is able to pick up right right, A lot of

1616
01:12:33,400 --> 01:12:35,400
Speaker 3: people just like snap a picture of their food. It's

1617
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:37,120
Speaker 3: like nobody's going to share that to their oh, like,

1618
01:12:37,160 --> 01:12:40,320
Speaker 3: look what sean eight for one? Nobody wants to share that. Yeah,

1619
01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:42,479
Speaker 3: but if we share a picture of her doing a

1620
01:12:42,479 --> 01:12:46,080
Speaker 3: handstand pregnant, people are like, it's gonna stir up check

1621
01:12:46,080 --> 01:12:49,200
Speaker 3: out this pregnant. Yeah, it's gonna it's gonna like create

1622
01:12:49,200 --> 01:12:50,880
Speaker 3: a conversation. And people are like, oh, I can't believe

1623
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:52,360
Speaker 3: she can still do it, or like oh is that

1624
01:12:52,400 --> 01:12:53,760
Speaker 3: good for the You know what I'm saying, Like it

1625
01:12:53,800 --> 01:12:56,519
Speaker 3: just starts a conversation and makes it sharable. Second thing

1626
01:12:56,640 --> 01:12:59,360
Speaker 3: is you got to do collapse. So, like me reaching

1627
01:12:59,400 --> 01:13:02,040
Speaker 3: out to you, it's like a bridge between my audience

1628
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:03,920
Speaker 3: and yours. So, like, my audience is not going to

1629
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,719
Speaker 3: be interested in your in your podcast and your show

1630
01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:08,920
Speaker 3: and content because they know a little bit about my

1631
01:13:08,920 --> 01:13:14,200
Speaker 3: football career. And by you being an NFL player, it

1632
01:13:14,240 --> 01:13:17,360
Speaker 3: gives him a broader perspective because you have six years.

1633
01:13:17,400 --> 01:13:20,439
Speaker 3: I only have three games, right, So like, but also

1634
01:13:20,520 --> 01:13:22,959
Speaker 3: by me going on your show, I'm getting your audience.

1635
01:13:23,160 --> 01:13:25,000
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, right right, right? So strategic

1636
01:13:25,360 --> 01:13:27,519
Speaker 3: my part, Oh Yeah, how can you how can you

1637
01:13:27,560 --> 01:13:28,880
Speaker 3: share value in that way?

1638
01:13:29,160 --> 01:13:29,760
Speaker 2: Yeah?

1639
01:13:29,960 --> 01:13:32,639
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're preaching, I'm preaching. He's spend too much.

1640
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:36,559
Speaker 2: He's spent some wisdom. He is now, no, you're completely right.

1641
01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:39,320
Speaker 2: Like we had Brendan shaub On and he was kind

1642
01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:42,200
Speaker 2: of he was kind of telling me that whole gig.

1643
01:13:42,200 --> 01:13:44,519
Speaker 2: He's like, once it gets you know, once it climbs here,

1644
01:13:44,600 --> 01:13:47,679
Speaker 2: like we'll get you out on the West coast. And

1645
01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:49,719
Speaker 2: you know, because we have we have all these fucking

1646
01:13:50,520 --> 01:13:52,280
Speaker 2: people we would love to talk to. It kind of

1647
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:55,799
Speaker 2: helped inspire us or me and myself one anything wanting

1648
01:13:55,840 --> 01:13:58,240
Speaker 2: to do a podcast. It's like the ultimate goal is

1649
01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:02,040
Speaker 2: to have those monkers on the bus and you know,

1650
01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:03,320
Speaker 2: go full circle with it.

1651
01:14:03,400 --> 01:14:04,280
Speaker 1: Does this bus move?

1652
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:08,000
Speaker 2: No, bus doesn't move yet? A bus doesn't move yet.

1653
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:12,240
Speaker 2: We're going to because initially we're thinking, we were thinking

1654
01:14:12,240 --> 01:14:13,720
Speaker 2: about getting a studio. We were thinking about like what

1655
01:14:13,760 --> 01:14:16,000
Speaker 2: studio could we get in? You know. One of our

1656
01:14:16,040 --> 01:14:18,880
Speaker 2: guys was like, hey, there's this bus out back and

1657
01:14:18,920 --> 01:14:20,920
Speaker 2: I was like me, I started I started no with

1658
01:14:21,000 --> 01:14:23,559
Speaker 2: most things until I find the yes. And I'm like,

1659
01:14:23,640 --> 01:14:27,959
Speaker 2: Taylor's gonna love this. Taylor's very like impulsive and immediately

1660
01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:29,479
Speaker 2: fell in love with it. And I knew he was

1661
01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:32,160
Speaker 2: gonna want it. And this thing it had all the rows,

1662
01:14:32,200 --> 01:14:34,160
Speaker 2: all the seats going on and everything. We had to

1663
01:14:34,200 --> 01:14:36,360
Speaker 2: gut it. We basically put money in the rent of

1664
01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:38,280
Speaker 2: it and put all the sounding stuff you see in

1665
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:42,240
Speaker 2: it and all the gear and uh yeah, and now

1666
01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:45,559
Speaker 2: it's like yeah, and now it's like it's taken off

1667
01:14:45,600 --> 01:14:47,080
Speaker 2: to where people are like, hey, when when you're gonna

1668
01:14:47,120 --> 01:14:48,639
Speaker 2: get that thing running, like you should take it out

1669
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:52,080
Speaker 2: here or there? And so now we want to get

1670
01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:59,719
Speaker 2: around yeah potentially. Yeah. It's it's interesting because because Taylor

1671
01:14:59,760 --> 01:15:01,840
Speaker 2: is who he is. He signed a five year deal

1672
01:15:01,880 --> 01:15:03,960
Speaker 2: with the Titans, like he's a Pro Bowl caliber player.

1673
01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:06,599
Speaker 2: He's a stud, right, He's gonna be somebody that's playing

1674
01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:11,080
Speaker 2: football for years to come, and uh so his number

1675
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:14,679
Speaker 2: one priority will all will be ball until those until

1676
01:15:14,760 --> 01:15:18,360
Speaker 2: his wheels fall off. Right Me, it's a little different me.

1677
01:15:18,520 --> 01:15:22,280
Speaker 2: I enjoy this kind of stuff, and I I just

1678
01:15:22,400 --> 01:15:26,040
Speaker 2: make sure I'm not trying to jump at too much

1679
01:15:27,160 --> 01:15:29,519
Speaker 2: with him in mind, you know what I mean, because

1680
01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:32,680
Speaker 2: I know I want to protect him and I want

1681
01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:34,920
Speaker 2: to protect kind of the stuff we've made and not

1682
01:15:35,000 --> 01:15:37,720
Speaker 2: make it seem like he's not focused on one or

1683
01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:41,080
Speaker 2: the other and make him to where it's like to hey,

1684
01:15:41,120 --> 01:15:42,880
Speaker 2: I don't want to this isn't fun for him anymore

1685
01:15:42,920 --> 01:15:45,559
Speaker 2: because an it's not fun for him, you know, or

1686
01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:48,479
Speaker 2: I mean me too, but I'm like super into this stuff.

1687
01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:50,200
Speaker 2: But the minute it's not fun for us is when

1688
01:15:50,240 --> 01:15:52,000
Speaker 2: it kind of it can kind of fall apart. So

1689
01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:54,600
Speaker 2: it's like thinking, Okay, the bus rolling will be an

1690
01:15:54,600 --> 01:15:57,240
Speaker 2: awesome idea, but it's unrealistic to think we're literally gonna

1691
01:15:57,320 --> 01:15:59,599
Speaker 2: drive it around every week and try to go somewhere.

1692
01:16:00,000 --> 01:16:01,000
Speaker 2: It takes up a lot of time, you know, how

1693
01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:04,639
Speaker 2: much training goes into being a football player. So we're

1694
01:16:04,640 --> 01:16:08,280
Speaker 2: trying to vision board strategies in the offseason where maybe

1695
01:16:08,280 --> 01:16:10,960
Speaker 2: it's like ten to twelve guests we want to go after,

1696
01:16:11,520 --> 01:16:13,720
Speaker 2: and we take the bus to these few different locations,

1697
01:16:13,800 --> 01:16:16,679
Speaker 2: whether it's on the West Coast, whether it's in New York,

1698
01:16:17,040 --> 01:16:19,759
Speaker 2: whether it's in you know, North Carolina at Dale Junior

1699
01:16:19,880 --> 01:16:23,000
Speaker 2: at Dale Ear and Hart's freaking ranch, and you go

1700
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,120
Speaker 2: and basically, you know, you try and set it up,

1701
01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:27,400
Speaker 2: but wait outside their freaking facility until they come on

1702
01:16:27,439 --> 01:16:30,640
Speaker 2: the damn bus and kind of document that, kind of

1703
01:16:30,720 --> 01:16:34,320
Speaker 2: document the travel that goes into it, document the like,

1704
01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:37,120
Speaker 2: have a little doc like a mini docuseries or some shit.

1705
01:16:37,520 --> 01:16:39,640
Speaker 2: But I just think that would be super cool. And

1706
01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:43,360
Speaker 2: then you're kind of you're videoing and producing some of

1707
01:16:43,360 --> 01:16:45,200
Speaker 2: the stuff that goes into us chasing our vision of

1708
01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:46,840
Speaker 2: getting in front of these people and kind of doing

1709
01:16:46,880 --> 01:16:47,720
Speaker 2: something cool with each other.

1710
01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:49,680
Speaker 3: So see, so what I did with Sean, you have

1711
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:52,559

1712
01:16:52,560 --> 01:16:54,360
Speaker 3: they until they get on your bus.

1713
