And everybody kind of wanted wants to 425 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: know if can we do CBD because everybody kind of 426 00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:27,119 Speaker 1: knows now how beneficial it is for your body for 427 00:19:27,119 --> 00:19:28,880 Speaker 1: like muscles, joints and everything like that, and you don't 428 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,400 Speaker 1: get the psychedelic effect that you do with THHC. 429 00:19:31,720 --> 00:19:34,200 Speaker 2: So people are like, yo, are you doing t Are 430 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:34,720 Speaker 2: you doing. 431 00:19:34,560 --> 00:19:36,880 Speaker 1: CBD now when you haven't been tested the one time 432 00:19:36,880 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: of year yet, like have you taken CBD?

So I definitely, I know both of 435 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:47,879 Speaker 1: us would like to know about the CBDTC. 436 00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 4: So I wouldn't I wouldn't test it. You know, there's 437 00:19:50,960 --> 00:19:54,240 Speaker 4: different forms of CBD. There's the full spectrum where you 438 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,520 Speaker 4: have a little bit of the THAC. So if you 439 00:19:56,520 --> 00:19:59,639 Speaker 4: have less than point zero three percent of TAC, you 440 00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 4: know that's full spectrum. 441 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:02,359 Speaker 3: That's full spectrum CBD oil. 442 00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 4: Now what they have is there's a called a CBD extract, 443 00:20:05,920 --> 00:20:08,399 Speaker 4: so they extract the THAC from it, and you're getting 444 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 4: straight CBD. You could take that right before a drug 445 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:13,760 Speaker 4: test and be fine. Now, what I don't know is 446 00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:16,840 Speaker 4: the full spectrum that has the THAC. I don't know 447 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 4: if that's safe for a drug test. I always tell guys, hey, look, 448 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 4: wait till you get your tests. Then you can start 449 00:20:21,760 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 4: taking it, you know. And then there's also the ointments 450 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 4: and stuff, and nobody's really done a whole bunch of 451 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 4: research on it. 452 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:29,160 Speaker 2: It's not to. 453 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 4: Say it's still vague in a sense, but I think 454 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:33,280 Speaker 4: that the NFL just needs to take it off the list. 455 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 4: Like why are we still, you know, getting getting punished 456 00:20:36,800 --> 00:20:40,640 Speaker 4: for taking, you know, cannabis or whatever using cannabis when 457 00:20:40,640 --> 00:20:42,479 Speaker 4: we're like the only lead that gets punished for it, 458 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. 459 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:45,800 Speaker 3: It's just, yeah, it's backwards to me. 460 00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,520 Speaker 2: I've talked to a bunch of people about that kind 461 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 2: of situation, and it seems like the NFL made it 462 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:54,280 Speaker 2: banned right right away, and like the NBA didn't really 463 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,240 Speaker 2: do that. I don't think hockey does that or baseball 464 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,680 Speaker 2: does that either. So because they went and did it, 465 00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 2: now hard because it's federally illegal to go back and say, hey, 466 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 2: just kidding, we won't we're not going to test for 467 00:21:04,920 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 2: that because you know what an X Y and me 468 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:09,880 Speaker 2: when there's a YEP and there wouldn't be a Bust 469 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:12,879 Speaker 2: with the Boys podcast with a train going by.

They just, you know what I mean, 504 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 4: it doesn't equal out. So I think that they're kind 505 00:22:47,480 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 4: of waiting on that to use that as a negotiate 506 00:22:50,160 --> 00:22:53,760 Speaker 4: negotiation tactic, which is kind of crazy, but that's just 507 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:54,679 Speaker 4: what you're dealing with. 508 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,720 Speaker 2: This is business, right. It is kind of like try 509 00:22:57,760 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 2: to get anything. If they can get eighteen games and 510 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:01,520 Speaker 2: then say hey, all right, we used some smoke weed 511 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 2: or whatever, use cannabis, right, what a shitty deal for 512 00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 2: the players. It kind of is like I saw this 513 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:11,560 Speaker 2: said something that, like I saw jo of you guys.

I saw something 516 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 2: the other day like they're like saying, you do eight 517 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 2: players play eighteen games, but you said them for two 518 00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:24,120 Speaker 2: of them, so still players are only playing sixteen games. 519 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: And it's like, well, then you're messing with people start records. 520 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:29,199 Speaker 2: You're messing with people snap records, which for offense Liane 521 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,439 Speaker 2: is kind of all you got. And then it's like 522 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:35,199 Speaker 2: why if you're going to play eighteen, play eighteen, then 523 00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 2: put two bi weeks in there. But like, don't dilute 524 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 2: the products you have because you're because it goes up 525 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:41,959 Speaker 2: and down a little bit. Now, I don't know all 526 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,199 Speaker 2: the logistics and everything of how like the NFL and 527 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,760 Speaker 2: the views, but I do know that you know those 528 00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: rumblings when it came to the anthem and there's rumbling 529 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,480 Speaker 2: like this and this is all these demographics that are 530 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:54,520 Speaker 2: either happy or upset. But like you do eighteen games, 531 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 2: things might get a little you know, real dice man, 532 00:23:57,600 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 2: it might get it might get too dicey. And if 533 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:01,199 Speaker 2: you if your conversation for that is like, hey, we'll 534 00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:04,040 Speaker 2: take two preseason games off, it's like, yeah, who gives 535 00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:06,800 Speaker 2: a ship? Yeah, like it takes one off. Anyway, games 536 00:24:06,840 --> 00:24:08,800 Speaker 2: you play at least more starter, you play three series 537 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,800 Speaker 2: at most sometimes right, and you're done and that's it. 538 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: Take out a preseason game, keep it at sixteen games 539 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:16,240 Speaker 1: at a bye week. 540 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,240 Speaker 2: I don't know, But what do you think about?

Sometimes when I come back from a bye week, 544 00:24:25,480 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: I'm a little more sore. My body is like a 545 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:29,680 Speaker 2: little more relaxed.

My father turned twenty eight years six. Yeah, okay, 554 00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: so were you there? 555 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:55,640 Speaker 3: Yeah? 556 00:24:55,680 --> 00:24:58,200 Speaker 4: You were here where we had a bye week after 557 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,080 Speaker 4: Week three? Yes, and then we had thirteen Street. 558 00:25:01,160 --> 00:25:02,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. That was a tough That was a tough year. 559 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 2: That was miserable. 560 00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,399 Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, Like imagine playing three games going to 561 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:08,000 Speaker 4: a bye week. 562 00:25:08,240 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 2: That's always the worst. Like this, late those late by 563 00:25:11,640 --> 00:25:13,320 Speaker 2: weeks the best we had. I think the year after that, 564 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 2: we had like a week ten by week or like 565 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:17,520 Speaker 2: the latest week you could have, and everyone was like, oh, 566 00:25:17,520 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 2: this is love. Yeah, I've always been archy, dude. 567 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,440 Speaker 1: The Skins had Week four last year and I was 568 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,680 Speaker 1: all text boys like, hey man, that that beginning bye 569 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:26,600 Speaker 1: week or early in the year, that blows. 570 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, Tian's got a good one this year. It's like 571 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:31,679 Speaker 2: the it's in November, okay, so that's all that's I 572 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:33,879 Speaker 2: think the first week in November, it's like a week solid. 573 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:35,800 Speaker 2: How you feel about the season, bro, I feel good 574 00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,680 Speaker 2: about it, man. I think the good thing about Arthur 575 00:25:37,720 --> 00:25:39,840 Speaker 2: being the OC is it gives everybody a chance to 576 00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 2: be in the same offense. Two years in a row, 577 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:45,159 Speaker 2: which we never really got. Our defense is always like 578 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:46,760 Speaker 2: even since I've been here, even when we went two 579 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 2: and fourteen and three and thirteen, Like, I just feel 580 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 2: like y'all are always so consistent. Yeah, you know, it's 581 00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,159 Speaker 2: just about the offense. The ebbs and flows of the 582 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,200 Speaker 2: offense got to be more consistent, and like the offensive line, 583 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 2: we do a better job of protecting. Give Marcus more time. 584 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 2: Receivers got to get open faster. Like it's all you know, 585 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:04,879 Speaker 2: it's the team sport. But I really think like of 586 00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 2: all the years, it seems like people are really starting 587 00:26:07,680 --> 00:26:10,360 Speaker 2: to buy in quite a bit. Like when I first 588 00:26:10,400 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 2: got there in Tilsy fourteen, it was a lot of 589 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:15,320 Speaker 2: old dudes like your tender, like Michael Ruse and Chris 590 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:16,919 Speaker 2: Spencer was in our room and it was kind of 591 00:26:16,960 --> 00:26:19,080 Speaker 2: like just kind of did your thing, you know. It's 592 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,400 Speaker 2: like everyone was in and out. I didn't really understand 593 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:22,959 Speaker 2: like the NFL at all. Now I'm starting to get it. 594 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 2: I feel like dudes are working hard, and we got 595 00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 2: talent too. We got some young guys with some talent. 596 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 3: A lot of talent. 597 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think it's all about culture, you know 598 00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:33,199 Speaker 4: what It really is. It's like I seen guys I 599 00:26:33,240 --> 00:26:35,919 Speaker 4: came in my first year at Jeff Fisher, so it 600 00:26:35,960 --> 00:26:40,080 Speaker 4: was Vince Young, Chris Johnson, you know, like older like 601 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 4: Chris Hope, Courtland Finn again, we had a really old team. 602 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:44,640 Speaker 3: That team. 603 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, guys just kind of did whatever they wanted whatever, 604 00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:54,480 Speaker 4: playing in Miami, lose the game, stay in Miami, don't 605 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,439 Speaker 4: even get on the tough Yeah, that's. 606 00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 2: You know what I mean. 607 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 3: So like when I got out, I was like, man, 608 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 3: what is going on? This is kind of loose to loose. 609 00:27:01,800 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, so I wasn't used to that, and then you know, 610 00:27:05,119 --> 00:27:08,359 Speaker 4: he was going Then Munchet came, and then Wizard Hunt. 611 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 3: Who was next? 612 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:10,960 Speaker 2: Malarkey Malarkey? 613 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,680 Speaker 4: And then now it was like man, it's just I've 614 00:27:13,680 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 4: seen so many different cultures try to be implemented, and 615 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,160 Speaker 4: I've been kind of studying that. It's like okay, what 616 00:27:20,400 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 4: like I try to take notes on like each you know, 617 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 4: leader or coach that came in. It's like, okay, run 618 00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:27,480 Speaker 4: your own business. Yeah, like what can I take away 619 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,680 Speaker 4: from this? Like this works here just didn't really quite 620 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 4: go over so well. Guys bought into this, but this 621 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 4: didn't work, And so I tried to look at each 622 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:38,280 Speaker 4: coach and kind of learn and take something away from 623 00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,520 Speaker 4: each coach that I could apply in, you know, in 624 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:42,880 Speaker 4: the business world, because I mean it's you're leading the organization, 625 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:45,719 Speaker 4: right men, how would you compare them all since you've 626 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 4: been under way? 627 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:50,199 Speaker 2: It sounds like you read off five there, Yeah, makeays. 628 00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,960 Speaker 4: So I think I think the common thread that I 629 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 4: think worked the best, at least from. 630 00:27:57,840 --> 00:27:59,800 Speaker 3: My perspective, was ownership. 631 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 4: Having the team feel like there's a sense of ownership, 632 00:28:03,720 --> 00:28:07,000 Speaker 4: that you have a say somewhat. 633 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:07,520 Speaker 3: In what's going on. 634 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 4: As to say, hey, look, this is more of a 635 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 4: collaborative approach, right, like understanding that there is a hierarchy, 636 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 4: there is authority, understanding those things.

You know, I think 646 00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 4: I think Malarkey did a good job at that. You know, 647 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,680 Speaker 4: I think that you know, we had the leadership councils 648 00:28:47,720 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 4: and you know, all those different things, and I know 649 00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 4: you probably had your opinions on. 650 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,160 Speaker 3: My Larkey, but it's like, you know. 651 00:28:53,080 --> 00:28:56,040 Speaker 4: We we had like a core group of guys, whether 652 00:28:56,080 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 4: it be Vets, Starters, you know, the leaders of the team, 653 00:28:59,680 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 4: and they kind of we kind of governing the locker 654 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 4: room essentially, you know what I mean, if we've seen 655 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 4: something going going on, we were able to hold people accountable. 656 00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 4: And you know, I think that we still had you 657 00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:12,560 Speaker 4: guys still had it, you know, on the team. But 658 00:29:12,600 --> 00:29:16,320 Speaker 4: I think having people feel like, you know, they're part 659 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:18,280 Speaker 4: of something that they have a piece of ownership in it. 660 00:29:18,520 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 4: I think that applies to any any type of business, 661 00:29:21,440 --> 00:29:21,600 Speaker 4: you know. 662 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 2: What I mean, is that something you implement with the 663 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 2: stuff you have going on. 664 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:29,800 Speaker 4: I think you gotta like it's a difference between paying 665 00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 4: somebody to do a job and like, let's just say 666 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 4: me and you start a business and you should Yeah, 667 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:37,880 Speaker 4: it's gonna happen. 668 00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: It's gonna happen. 669 00:29:40,280 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 4: So it's like, let's just say we go in, you know, 670 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 4: on a joint venture, and you know, I could pay 671 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,480 Speaker 4: you as a consultant or an employee, or I could say, hey, look, 672 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:51,760 Speaker 4: take some equity and we'll just kind of build this 673 00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,640 Speaker 4: thing out. You're gonna put way more time and energy 674 00:29:54,640 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 4: into it, knowing that you have some skin in the game, 675 00:29:57,800 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 4: knowing that you're that you have ownership, and that you 676 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,240 Speaker 4: a piece of it.

I was like, damn, 732 00:32:25,600 --> 00:32:30,040 Speaker 4: this guy had everything. He played twenty years row a famer. 733 00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:32,560 Speaker 4: So I'm like, what would it take for him to 734 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,240 Speaker 4: kill himself? Like he had it all? And so when 735 00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 4: I started to really look into it, and I'm looking 736 00:32:37,160 --> 00:32:40,000 Speaker 4: at CTE and like. 737 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 3: Like is that going to be me in ten fifteen years? 738 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 4: And so I started looking into other alternatives because there 739 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,680 Speaker 4: weren't no options. It was just like, yeah, you play 740 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 4: this game and you hope and pray to God that 741 00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 4: you're going to be straight in you know, fifteen twenty 742 00:32:51,680 --> 00:32:52,480 Speaker 4: years that you could live. 743 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:54,480 Speaker 3: A normal life. But I was like, nah, I got 744 00:32:54,520 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 3: to be more proactive. 745 00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:58,240 Speaker 4: And then eug Monroe, he was playing for the Ravens 746 00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 4: at the time, he was at the actual first you 747 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:05,480 Speaker 4: know advocate for NFL in the NFL for cannabis, and 748 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 4: I seen him on CNN talking about it, and I 749 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 4: reached out to him like, yo, bro, like what's up, 750 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 4: Like I need to learn about this, and he just 751 00:33:12,160 --> 00:33:15,720 Speaker 4: started sharing research with me. Like in Israel they're doing 752 00:33:16,040 --> 00:33:18,080 Speaker 4: they do a lot of research on cannabis. Because it's 753 00:33:18,080 --> 00:33:20,480 Speaker 4: a little bit more open, you can you can. 754 00:33:20,400 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 3: Research it more easily. 755 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 4: And so I started reading stuff, looking at the neural 756 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 4: protecting qualities of it. 757 00:33:26,680 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 3: You know, when you when you. 758 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 4: Go play football, like you're doing this all day, and 759 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,520 Speaker 4: so you get those subconcussive hits that create inflammation in 760 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:39,720 Speaker 4: your brain. And so what CBD oil is basically patented 761 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 4: as is a neural protectant. So if you take CBD oil, 762 00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 4: let's just say you take some in theory before you 763 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 4: go and play a game, it would essentially limit the 764 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:50,880 Speaker 4: amount of inflammation that comes into your brain from you 765 00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 4: know different you know, head trauma, So that was the 766 00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 4: big reason for me. I know a lot of guys 767 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,520 Speaker 4: use it for pain inflammation. It's just a healthier alternative. 768 00:33:59,520 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 4: It works works naturally with your system as opposed to 769 00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:05,840 Speaker 4: opioid or you know, another painkiller. 770 00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:09,160 Speaker 3: It's just not as toxic to your system. So it's 771 00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:10,520 Speaker 3: all about having options, bro. 772 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, CBD is definitely like something that could absolutely help. 773 00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 2: I have a buddy who has a company in Arizona 774 00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 2: called True Infusion, and they do like everything organic, like 775 00:34:19,680 --> 00:34:21,400 Speaker 2: the right way to make CBD and stuff like that, 776 00:34:21,520 --> 00:34:24,000 Speaker 2: So they run all that and he all the times like, man, 777 00:34:24,040 --> 00:34:25,880 Speaker 2: I wish I could give you some of the stuff 778 00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 2: to take while you're playing. And it's like if you 779 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,320 Speaker 2: go and I took a pain pill, like for the 780 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,240 Speaker 2: next three four days, like I've taken pain pills and 781 00:34:35,400 --> 00:34:37,879 Speaker 2: we can all agree, Like you don't feel better then 782 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,880 Speaker 2: when you take a pain pill, like it's you feel amazing. 783 00:34:39,880 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 2: There's a reason why it's so addictive. Yeah, exactly, it's 784 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 2: not that you don't have pain. It's like you forgot 785 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:48,239 Speaker 2: there ever existed the word pain. You know what I'm saying. 786 00:34:48,680 --> 00:34:51,640 Speaker 2: Life's just different now, you know what I'm saying, so 787 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,680 Speaker 2: but like once once you take that, like that chemically 788 00:34:54,719 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 2: imbalances your brain and so for the next three four days, 789 00:34:58,160 --> 00:34:59,920 Speaker 2: like I'll even notice, like you know, I'm more ear 790 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,840 Speaker 2: or I'm more like I'm more short with my wife 791 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:05,880 Speaker 2: or my patience. I don't have as much patiences my 792 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:08,480 Speaker 2: kids or whatever. So it's kind of like it's so 793 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:11,839 Speaker 2: easy to see and something like a plant, like that's 794 00:35:11,840 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 2: so natural, and I just don't know why there's so 795 00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 2: much resistance on something like even hemp. Like if you 796 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:19,400 Speaker 2: started growing and producing hemp, I've said this before in 797 00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 2: this podcast, Like there's one hundred thousand products that you 798 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:26,440 Speaker 2: could replace with hemp, including plastic, which is like like 799 00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,319 Speaker 2: truly affecting our ecosystem, our oceans and everything to an 800 00:35:30,360 --> 00:35:33,160 Speaker 2: extent that it's not going to be us. And that's 801 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,319 Speaker 2: like human means are naturally selfish. Human beings are where 802 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,200 Speaker 2: we come from caveman times.

You know, and the 805 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,319 Speaker 2: thing we need to start focusing on is like it's 806 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 2: not going to be our kids, or it means going 807 00:35:47,200 --> 00:35:48,960 Speaker 2: to be our kids kids you know, it says our 808 00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,120 Speaker 2: grandkids are great grandkids that are going to feel the 809 00:35:51,120 --> 00:35:53,520 Speaker 2: effects of what we're doing now. And something as simple 810 00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 2: as letting an athlete it takes something like CBD would 811 00:35:56,280 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 2: be so beneficial because you don't have those things, like 812 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 2: if you really were focused on like, let's focus on 813 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,320 Speaker 2: CT being an issue, Like you don't want brain issue 814 00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 2: to have like outfits linman defensive linemen, those like little 815 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 2: tiny hits we call them sub subconcussion, sub subconcussive hits 816 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:14,439 Speaker 2: like those those are the things that add up over time, 817 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:17,320 Speaker 2: and those are things you don't feel. But I noticed 818 00:36:17,360 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 2: myself like even in November December, late in the season, 819 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:22,560 Speaker 2: I'll be home and I'll be having my buddies will 820 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 2: come see me, and they'll be talking to me after games. 821 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,840 Speaker 2: I'm not even I can't even really form send it. 822 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,840 Speaker 2: I can talk, I can't talk, but like I'm like, 823 00:36:30,280 --> 00:36:32,719 Speaker 2: I'm not as like, uh, I'm not as sharp, I'm 824 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,279 Speaker 2: not as like you know what I'm saying.

Yeah, we should be focused on. 826 00:36:38,120 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: Years down the road, like probably in the near future, 827 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 1: ten fifteen years whatever, we're going to look back at 828 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: this time and kind of like laugh at the way 829 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:47,439 Speaker 1: we're the NFL and we all tried to go after hey, 830 00:36:47,480 --> 00:36:49,279 Speaker 1: replacing this with this and be like, yeah, what were 831 00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:51,719 Speaker 1: we thinking taking all this stuff back then? We kind 832 00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:54,279 Speaker 1: of know it now, yeah, you know intuitably we know 833 00:36:54,360 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 1: that now, but we're definitely going to look back. One man, 834 00:36:57,200 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 1: I can't believe it took this long for this stuff 835 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 1: to kind of pass. 836 00:37:00,560 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 2: Or it's the same thing as like we look at 837 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 2: we look at like thirty years ago or one hundred 838 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:07,560 Speaker 2: years ago, and doctors like there's a there's a bell 839 00:37:07,640 --> 00:37:10,399 Speaker 2: Mead plantation down the road and they have like it's 840 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 2: a really cool place to go check out. I went 841 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: and saw it's like a museum. And this woman had asthma. Well, 842 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,560 Speaker 2: whenever the eighteen hundred or whatever that was around, the 843 00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 2: prescribed her to smoke cigarettes and climb at high altitudes 844 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:24,239 Speaker 2: because the lung is sort of got because the lung 845 00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:27,120 Speaker 2: was viewed as a muscle and not like you know 846 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. 847 00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:28,920 Speaker 3: So it's like and you look. 848 00:37:28,760 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 2: At it, you're like, what idiots?

So 852 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,600 Speaker 2: the doctors that go to school in the eighties and 853 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 2: doctors their identity is one hundred percent what they know, 854 00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:46,440 Speaker 2: you know. So so if you go if you have 855 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:48,440 Speaker 2: a doctor that went to school, graduated in eighty two 856 00:37:48,800 --> 00:37:52,319 Speaker 2: and didn't do anything else, his shit's so outdated and 857 00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:53,879 Speaker 2: it's not fair. And if you say, well, a doctor 858 00:37:53,920 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 2: told me to do this, doctors can be idiots too, 859 00:37:56,320 --> 00:37:57,759 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, unless you stay on top 860 00:37:57,800 --> 00:38:00,359 Speaker 2: of everything and go towards like hey, like we got 861 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 2: to I had to learn and progress and grow, Like 862 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,280 Speaker 2: it's it's so easy to have a PhD. 863 00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,640 Speaker 1: I mean, we deal with that a little bit in 864 00:38:07,280 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 1: the training that I was just about to say that 865 00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,120 Speaker 1: the teams you're on the training rooms, you're kind of 866 00:38:12,200 --> 00:38:15,400 Speaker 1: dated to what they know, and guys like yourself, like, 867 00:38:15,440 --> 00:38:18,080 Speaker 1: I've learned a lot from you over just being with 868 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:22,160 Speaker 1: you for a year, and yeah, and you just kind 869 00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 1: of you kind of realize the education you try and 870 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:26,719 Speaker 1: get outside of the facility and the stuff you read 871 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:29,480 Speaker 1: into or listen whether it's a podcast or any of 872 00:38:29,520 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 1: that information out there and you start to learn and 873 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 1: question a few things or try to challenge not even 874 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,680 Speaker 1: not necessarily challenge it, or you realize your innocent self 875 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: bringing it up in that environment and when they kind 876 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 1: of just like laugh at you or or you know, 877 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: just frown upon it or belittle it, and you're just like, man, 878 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 1: what you know, I've read this is actually has some 879 00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,439 Speaker 1: really beneficial stuff and a lot of these a lot 880 00:38:52,440 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 1: of a lot of trainers or doctors anybody, they need 881 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,520 Speaker 1: a lot of data and research throughout time to kind 882 00:38:57,520 --> 00:39:00,919 Speaker 1: of prove that instead of being like being Greenfield somebody 883 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,399 Speaker 1: who experiments on himselves all the time and can give 884 00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:05,279 Speaker 1: you data and some stuff to try out and go 885 00:39:05,320 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 1: after and you're kind of like, yo, I'm going to 886 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 1: do this too. They're kind of like, nah, we're not 887 00:39:09,160 --> 00:39:11,600 Speaker 1: there yet, or that doesn't make sense because of what 888 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 1: I was taught back in you know, the nineties. 889 00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:17,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, they it's funny. I think a few years ago 890 00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:22,160 Speaker 4: my nickname around the facility was doctor Morgan, and I 891 00:39:22,360 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 4: definitely see that it wasn't in a positive way like 892 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 4: it was the it was because you know, we talk 893 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 4: about being in the training room, the outdated you know, 894 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 4: methodologies and the approach to treating injuries. And you know, 895 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:40,040 Speaker 4: if you're a rookie, fringe free agent type of. 896 00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:42,840 Speaker 3: Guy, you don't necessarily have time to waste. 897 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:45,719 Speaker 4: You know, I sing your knee, you need something that 898 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:48,960 Speaker 4: might has to expedite that train that that that healing. 899 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 3: And so you know, I do a lot of. 900 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:55,279 Speaker 4: Things that are unorthodox, that are necessarily outside of the 901 00:39:55,280 --> 00:39:58,319 Speaker 4: the realm of expertise of these trainers. So, like you said, 902 00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,879 Speaker 4: they don't necessarily understand it. But I was telling guys like, look, 903 00:40:02,719 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 4: every time you get injured, get a second opinion. Absolutely 904 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:10,560 Speaker 4: has down, get a second opinion. You can't rely on 905 00:40:10,640 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 4: somebody because it's a conflict of ventures. The way the 906 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,880 Speaker 4: training room is set up in the NFL, it's just 907 00:40:15,880 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 4: a conflict of interest. 908 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 3: Bro. 909 00:40:17,120 --> 00:40:21,280 Speaker 4: Like I've seen guys, you know, get screwed over because 910 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:25,560 Speaker 4: of politics and just different you know, things that weren't 911 00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 4: necessarily related to the injury. 912 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:30,360 Speaker 3: It was just like political stuff. It wasn't it was 913 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 3: bad advice. 914 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:34,879 Speaker 4: You know, I'm not naming names, but I just think 915 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,359 Speaker 4: that the more innovative you can be when it comes 916 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:40,920 Speaker 4: to your health, and the more flexible you can be, 917 00:40:40,920 --> 00:40:43,560 Speaker 4: because we all know, like the rate of information is 918 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 4: like doubling at like an exponential rate because there's so 919 00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,560 Speaker 4: much information out there. Yes, so like everything's constantly changing, 920 00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,799 Speaker 4: and so if you're still relying on stuff from like 921 00:40:52,920 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 4: nineteen eighty two or even two three years ago, you're outdated. 922 00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 2: Right, you're not continuing that knowledge. You an education, bro. 923 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 1: But the play Devil's Advocate, like those guys, it's not 924 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 1: that they want to. It's not that anybody tries to 925 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 1: necessarily mess you over. It's just that everyone kind of 926 00:41:09,920 --> 00:41:14,280 Speaker 1: works under the what they the owners like their job 927 00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,520 Speaker 1: is to get the product on the field as fast 928 00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:20,719 Speaker 1: as possible from what they know, and it's not and 929 00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:22,920 Speaker 1: when the head coach or the owner anybody comes in 930 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,319 Speaker 1: your office and they're checking on a player, like hey, 931 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 1: where's so and so at, Like where are we at 932 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 1: with him?

So I think the more that we can 972 00:43:05,000 --> 00:43:07,880 Speaker 4: model that and you can model that, the better and 973 00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,840 Speaker 4: just kind of being that sound board for guys and 974 00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 4: that voice of reason, because when you're coming in as 975 00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:14,560 Speaker 4: a rookie and you're not like a high draft pick. 976 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:16,359 Speaker 2: Bro, You're just you're kind of on your own, you're 977 00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:20,920 Speaker 2: going I've never I've never had an issue with like 978 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 2: Todd Tursl. He's the head trainer of the Titans. He's 979 00:43:23,160 --> 00:43:26,319 Speaker 2: always been so good to me, so good to me 980 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:28,280 Speaker 2: in so many ways. And when we talk about education, 981 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:33,040 Speaker 2: like the difficult thing about education, especially with modern medicine, 982 00:43:33,320 --> 00:43:35,719 Speaker 2: is that there's so much information out there, but it's 983 00:43:35,760 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 2: not just about this is the way. It's this is 984 00:43:37,640 --> 00:43:39,560 Speaker 2: the way, and there's another one saying no, that's the way, 985 00:43:39,680 --> 00:43:41,480 Speaker 2: and then there's one that's more in the middle. There's 986 00:43:41,520 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 2: so many different ways to process information and so many 987 00:43:44,520 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 2: different opinions that when you go and you get these things. 988 00:43:47,120 --> 00:43:50,080 Speaker 2: If we're talking about an a cl all these things, 989 00:43:50,080 --> 00:43:53,839 Speaker 2: there's positives and negatives to all that stuff. And it's 990 00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:58,120 Speaker 2: people's jobs as are who are in that position, whether 991 00:43:58,160 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 2: you be a doctor or a trainer, a physical therapist, 992 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:03,319 Speaker 2: you it's your job to go and not only read 993 00:44:03,320 --> 00:44:05,239 Speaker 2: the stuff that you agree with, but read the stuff 994 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:07,160 Speaker 2: you don't agree with as well. So you have an 995 00:44:07,160 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 2: opportunity for your own self to play devil's advocate and 996 00:44:10,320 --> 00:44:12,680 Speaker 2: keep you in check for the stuff that you know 997 00:44:12,840 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 2: you might have felt, well that's ridiculous before. Well it's 998 00:44:15,560 --> 00:44:17,319 Speaker 2: a classic term. Don't knock and seel. You try it, 999 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:19,400 Speaker 2: You got it. You got to give those things a shot. 1000 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,680 Speaker 2: I like Ben Greenfield so much because he does do 1001 00:44:21,719 --> 00:44:24,640 Speaker 2: those things. He'll he'll hack his sana to sort of 1002 00:44:24,640 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 2: over two her degrees and he'll do yoga in it 1003 00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:29,319 Speaker 2: for ninety minutes, you know, and just to see what 1004 00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:33,000 Speaker 2: that's like. He'll go through different recovery routines and check 1005 00:44:33,040 --> 00:44:35,279 Speaker 2: stuff out, but he puts on his body. But a 1006 00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:37,160 Speaker 2: big thing people to know is need to know as well, 1007 00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,000 Speaker 2: is not every human being the same. It's not like 1008 00:44:39,000 --> 00:44:41,000 Speaker 2: we're all four trucks and manufacturing in the same place. 1009 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 2: My GenEx are different than nears are different the nears. 1010 00:44:43,120 --> 00:44:44,759 Speaker 2: Some things are gonna work better for me than they 1011 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 2: are for you.

So 1014 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:55,640 Speaker 2: but some guys, I've seen dudes in our locker room 1015 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:59,120 Speaker 2: go and be like literally static stretching before games turns, 1016 00:44:59,120 --> 00:45:01,319 Speaker 2: before we go out. They say, like, it's an hour 1017 00:45:01,320 --> 00:45:03,560 Speaker 2: and a half until it's right. But then I see 1018 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 2: those guys killing it.

Like we literally tried to 1307 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:13,840 Speaker 4: go vegan in twenty fifteen and my wife went to 1308 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:16,600 Speaker 4: Whole Foods and she bought a whole bunch of vegetables 1309 00:57:17,080 --> 00:57:18,640 Speaker 4: and we just came home and dumped it on the 1310 00:57:18,640 --> 00:57:20,400 Speaker 4: counter and were like, what the hell do. 1311 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 3: We do with this? 1312 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 2: Right? 1313 00:57:21,680 --> 00:57:25,640 Speaker 4: And we lasted like seven days and we failed, and 1314 00:57:25,720 --> 00:57:29,480 Speaker 4: we you know this. Back around twenty seventeen, I was 1315 00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:32,280 Speaker 4: looking for different ways to enhance my recovery because I 1316 00:57:32,360 --> 00:57:35,520 Speaker 4: kept hearing that it cut down inflammation. And I was 1317 00:57:35,560 --> 00:57:38,080 Speaker 4: consulting with this nutrition that she kept sending me research 1318 00:57:38,120 --> 00:57:41,320 Speaker 4: and research, and I kept looking it up and I'm like, shoot, 1319 00:57:41,600 --> 00:57:43,720 Speaker 4: I'm gonna try this off season. It's like March at 1320 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 4: this time, let's try it. So I slowly started to 1321 00:57:47,400 --> 00:57:50,760 Speaker 4: cut out red meat, I cut out poultry, eggs, and 1322 00:57:50,800 --> 00:57:53,160 Speaker 4: then the last thing to go was dairy. And so 1323 00:57:53,520 --> 00:57:55,960 Speaker 4: what I realized was what I started to notice was 1324 00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 4: every time I ate something that didn't have animal products 1325 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:02,680 Speaker 4: in it, I felt like I was I didn't have 1326 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:04,480 Speaker 4: that slump you know, when you eat something you kind 1327 00:58:04,480 --> 00:58:06,520 Speaker 4: of your body kind of takes a little bit to 1328 00:58:06,560 --> 00:58:10,360 Speaker 4: get back going, because that's your body breaking down whatever 1329 00:58:10,400 --> 00:58:13,560 Speaker 4: you put into your stomach. So it's creating, it's using 1330 00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:14,840 Speaker 4: a lot of energy to. 1331 00:58:14,800 --> 00:58:16,160 Speaker 3: Break down whatever you eat. 1332 00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:18,600 Speaker 4: So when you eat more of a plant based diet, 1333 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:23,040 Speaker 4: it's easier on your system to process that and digest it, 1334 00:58:23,440 --> 00:58:25,960 Speaker 4: so you can use those that energy for other systems 1335 00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:26,600 Speaker 4: in your body. 1336 00:58:26,920 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 3: And so for me, that was another thing I looked at. 1337 00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:32,080 Speaker 4: I have hereditary high blood pressure, and so I was 1338 00:58:32,080 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 4: twenty one years old with high blood pressure as a 1339 00:58:34,800 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 4: Division one athlete, Like that didn't make sense to me. 1340 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,640 Speaker 3: And so when I got my blood panels back, that 1341 00:58:39,880 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 3: was back the perfect you know, the levels were amazing, So. 1342 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,720 Speaker 4: That dropped my sea reactive protein, which is your inflammation drop, 1343 00:58:47,160 --> 00:58:48,600 Speaker 4: and then just my overall energy. 1344 00:58:48,640 --> 00:58:51,040 Speaker 3: Bro, Like, I felt great. Like the first year I 1345 00:58:51,080 --> 00:58:51,400 Speaker 3: went through. 1346 00:58:51,400 --> 00:58:54,400 Speaker 4: It was twenty seventeen and we're in training camp and 1347 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:57,080 Speaker 4: you know, like day nine ten training camp, you start 1348 00:58:57,120 --> 00:59:00,760 Speaker 4: to get grind, feel everything. And I was still waking 1349 00:59:00,840 --> 00:59:03,560 Speaker 4: up like I'm straight, like I'm a little sore, but 1350 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:05,480 Speaker 4: I'm good, you know what I mean. This is like 1351 00:59:05,560 --> 00:59:09,920 Speaker 4: year seven at the time, and I was feeling really good. 1352 00:59:09,960 --> 00:59:12,880 Speaker 4: I was scared because the whole, the whole myth is 1353 00:59:12,880 --> 00:59:15,040 Speaker 4: what the protein, right, the protein protein protein? 1354 00:59:15,560 --> 00:59:17,960 Speaker 3: How can you you know, how's that gonna affect you? 1355 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:21,360 Speaker 4: And so when I came back to training camp, I 1356 00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:25,000 Speaker 4: still felt strong, I still felt good, and my weight 1357 00:59:25,120 --> 00:59:27,439 Speaker 4: was still pretty sustainable. I was like two sixty two, 1358 00:59:27,960 --> 00:59:30,560 Speaker 4: but my body fat a drop, you know, my body 1359 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:31,480 Speaker 4: just kind of leaned out. 1360 00:59:31,520 --> 00:59:33,120 Speaker 3: So I'm a big believer in it. 1361 00:59:33,160 --> 00:59:33,360 Speaker 2: Bro. 1362 00:59:33,880 --> 00:59:36,240 Speaker 4: I tell people, look, if you can do maybe like 1363 00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:39,080 Speaker 4: one meal a day that's that doesn't have meat, then 1364 00:59:39,120 --> 00:59:41,880 Speaker 4: you're you're on the right track. We don't look at 1365 00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:45,720 Speaker 4: it from like a judgemental standpoint, because we get judged, bro, 1366 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:49,160 Speaker 4: Like vegans would judge us for wearing leather shoes. 1367 00:59:49,200 --> 00:59:51,280 Speaker 3: And I'm like, dude, like I'm not on that now, 1368 00:59:51,440 --> 00:59:51,960 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. 1369 00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:54,360 Speaker 2: So yeah, it'll get kind of crazy.

When fats help exactly, Fat's helpier. 1397 01:00:59,040 --> 01:01:00,480 Speaker 2: Like if you like, if you people want to do 1398 01:01:00,520 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 2: a Kido diet, those types of things. Dairy, Yeah, I 1399 01:01:04,000 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 2: cut out dairy and it feels amazing. Right Cheese Now, 1400 01:01:07,680 --> 01:01:09,560 Speaker 2: if you look at cheese when it's melted, like that's 1401 01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:12,720 Speaker 2: in your body, that's gonna you're gonna feel sluggish.

I've seen other people go vegan and maybe 1407 01:01:26,200 --> 01:01:28,480 Speaker 2: they're doing something different or whatever, but they don't look great. 1408 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,360 Speaker 2: They almost look sickly at times. And so it's important. 1409 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:33,560 Speaker 2: Just like people want to quick fix for everything that's 1410 01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:35,400 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen.

You've heard all 1468 01:03:57,400 --> 01:03:59,920 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff, Vitamin B, vitamin B twelve, vitamin 1469 01:04:00,840 --> 01:04:03,000 Speaker 1: the iodine, iron, calcium, and zinc. 1470 01:04:03,080 --> 01:04:05,160 Speaker 2: Like, how do you do you supplement that?

So 1583 01:09:20,320 --> 01:09:23,840 Speaker 4: right after slavery was abolished, all these black people were 1584 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:27,400 Speaker 4: getting locked up for petty offenses loitering, you know, smoking, 1585 01:09:27,479 --> 01:09:30,439 Speaker 4: like just just different little petty offenses, and I would 1586 01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:32,639 Speaker 4: lock you up and I would get free labor. 1587 01:09:33,479 --> 01:09:36,760 Speaker 3: So it was essentially slavery at the end of the day. 1588 01:09:36,800 --> 01:09:39,960 Speaker 4: It was just that I criminalized you, and I made 1589 01:09:40,000 --> 01:09:42,240 Speaker 4: you a criminal, and I was able to extract free 1590 01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:43,000 Speaker 4: labor out of you. 1591 01:09:43,479 --> 01:09:45,479 Speaker 3: And so what you see now with the private prison 1592 01:09:45,520 --> 01:09:47,280 Speaker 3: industry is it's the same thing. 1593 01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:50,679 Speaker 4: You know, we have the we have the world's largest 1594 01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:56,439 Speaker 4: we have the world's largest prison population, and the ratio 1595 01:09:56,720 --> 01:09:59,040 Speaker 4: and how that adds up stacks up to the rest 1596 01:09:59,080 --> 01:09:59,920 Speaker 4: of the world's population. 1597 01:10:00,080 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 3: It's completely out of balance. 1598 01:10:01,800 --> 01:10:05,040 Speaker 4: And so when you look at the statistics around the 1599 01:10:05,080 --> 01:10:07,920 Speaker 4: people that are in prison and for petty offenses and 1600 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:10,280 Speaker 4: all those things, it's a reason. 1601 01:10:10,040 --> 01:10:10,799 Speaker 3: Why that happens. 1602 01:10:11,200 --> 01:10:15,439 Speaker 4: When we talk about private prisons, they're incentivized to keep 1603 01:10:15,479 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 4: people locked up. So if you come to me and 1604 01:10:19,080 --> 01:10:20,799 Speaker 4: I'm a judge and I have some type of affiliation 1605 01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:22,880 Speaker 4: with a private prison group like a geo group or 1606 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:25,680 Speaker 4: cour Civic that may be on I might might be 1607 01:10:25,720 --> 01:10:26,400 Speaker 4: on their payroll. 1608 01:10:26,640 --> 01:10:27,960 Speaker 3: So if you come to me and you're a kid 1609 01:10:28,040 --> 01:10:28,720 Speaker 3: and you kind of you. 1610 01:10:28,720 --> 01:10:31,240 Speaker 2: Know, as a judge, as the judge, I'll. 1611 01:10:31,080 --> 01:10:33,960 Speaker 4: Be more incentivized to lock you up because I know 1612 01:10:34,040 --> 01:10:36,880 Speaker 4: that those cour Civic and those geo groups, they have 1613 01:10:36,920 --> 01:10:40,120 Speaker 4: a certain quota to make. So if they're not, if 1614 01:10:40,120 --> 01:10:42,920 Speaker 4: they're not imprisoning people at a certain rate, they're losing money. 1615 01:10:43,280 --> 01:10:45,840 Speaker 3: So they're incentivized to lock people up for petty things. 1616 01:10:46,280 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 4: And so what I didn't know when I found out 1617 01:10:48,479 --> 01:10:51,000 Speaker 4: was that these companies are public companies that are traded 1618 01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:51,880 Speaker 4: on the stock market. 1619 01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:53,519 Speaker 3: And if you're part of a. 1620 01:10:54,200 --> 01:10:57,920 Speaker 4: Fund, the ETF and whatnot, you could unknowingly be invested 1621 01:10:57,920 --> 01:11:00,280 Speaker 4: in these companies and so what I started the wake 1622 01:11:00,360 --> 01:11:03,719 Speaker 4: up was like, dang, like, let me call my financial advisor. Hey, 1623 01:11:03,760 --> 01:11:06,479 Speaker 4: am I am I in these companies? Now you're not okay? 1624 01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:08,880 Speaker 4: But what is my money doing? And so I started 1625 01:11:08,880 --> 01:11:11,759 Speaker 4: to kind of reallocate my private capital that was invested 1626 01:11:12,080 --> 01:11:17,400 Speaker 4: into more impactful investments, so affordable housing developments, technology, training 1627 01:11:17,439 --> 01:11:22,599 Speaker 4: for underserved communities, access to capital for minority entrepreneurs, all 1628 01:11:22,600 --> 01:11:25,640 Speaker 4: these different things to try to break these cycles. And 1629 01:11:25,680 --> 01:11:29,160 Speaker 4: so when you talk about philanthropy, I've kind of evolved 1630 01:11:29,280 --> 01:11:33,120 Speaker 4: into like a holistic approach, so hitting a philanthropy to charity, 1631 01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:36,840 Speaker 4: but also you know, meaningful investments into these you know, 1632 01:11:36,880 --> 01:11:40,240 Speaker 4: communities to try to break these systemic cycles. And so 1633 01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:45,799 Speaker 4: what I've done recently we formed an Opportunity Zone fund 1634 01:11:46,240 --> 01:11:49,320 Speaker 4: to basically go into these same communities but do what 1635 01:11:49,439 --> 01:11:51,840 Speaker 4: I've been doing at scale. You know, we're sitting right 1636 01:11:51,920 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 4: now in an opportunities zone. I don't know if I 1637 01:11:53,680 --> 01:11:54,799 Speaker 4: if I talk to you about. 1638 01:11:54,560 --> 01:11:56,759 Speaker 2: This, you mentioned it but as much details. 1639 01:11:56,800 --> 01:11:59,560 Speaker 3: So it's like, if you're an opportunity zone. 1640 01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:05,280 Speaker 4: Business and I invest in you, I can basically get 1641 01:12:05,280 --> 01:12:09,000 Speaker 4: a tax free investment on any type of liquidation. So 1642 01:12:09,080 --> 01:12:12,200 Speaker 4: if I have a capital gain and I reallocate that 1643 01:12:12,200 --> 01:12:15,120 Speaker 4: capital to the opportunities on right, to the opportunity's own 1644 01:12:15,160 --> 01:12:18,439 Speaker 4: business or development or whatnot, and if I hold that 1645 01:12:18,840 --> 01:12:21,800 Speaker 4: investment for over ten years, it becomes tax free. 1646 01:12:22,040 --> 01:12:22,320 Speaker 2: Correct. 1647 01:12:22,320 --> 01:12:25,400 Speaker 4: So what you're seeing is a lot of these private institutions, 1648 01:12:25,439 --> 01:12:29,160 Speaker 4: family offices, they have a lot of capital gains. I 1649 01:12:29,200 --> 01:12:31,880 Speaker 4: mean some people estimated it being a six point one 1650 01:12:31,960 --> 01:12:36,479 Speaker 4: trillion dollar market. So these when this money flows into 1651 01:12:36,520 --> 01:12:39,639 Speaker 4: these communities, if it's not done the right way, then 1652 01:12:39,680 --> 01:12:43,280 Speaker 4: what you're going to see is more gentrification, more displacement, 1653 01:12:43,720 --> 01:12:47,320 Speaker 4: less ownership from the community. So my whole thing is 1654 01:12:48,680 --> 01:12:51,600 Speaker 4: making sure that doing I can do my part to 1655 01:12:51,640 --> 01:12:54,040 Speaker 4: make sure the investment is done the right way, so 1656 01:12:54,080 --> 01:12:56,280 Speaker 4: it's not just top down, Like the worst thing a 1657 01:12:56,360 --> 01:12:59,840 Speaker 4: community can ever want is somebody coming in and telling 1658 01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:01,160 Speaker 4: them and what they're supposed to do. 1659 01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:01,840 Speaker 3: Here. 1660 01:13:01,880 --> 01:13:03,519 Speaker 4: I'm here to help you. I'm here to help you 1661 01:13:03,560 --> 01:13:05,400 Speaker 4: solve your problems. I don't care what you say, this 1662 01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:07,360 Speaker 4: is what we're going to do. And so that's where 1663 01:13:07,360 --> 01:13:09,559 Speaker 4: it's like for me. I feel like when you go 1664 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,120 Speaker 4: into these communities, it has to be an inclusive approach. 1665 01:13:12,479 --> 01:13:15,000 Speaker 4: Because I can't come into your home and your community 1666 01:13:15,000 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 4: and tell you what you need without having a conversation. 1667 01:13:17,920 --> 01:13:18,920 Speaker 3: With you first. 1668 01:13:19,120 --> 01:13:23,240 Speaker 4: And so what you're seeing is people reallocating their money 1669 01:13:23,240 --> 01:13:26,200 Speaker 4: to these communities, but solely based on the financial return. 1670 01:13:26,840 --> 01:13:28,800 Speaker 3: So what we're doing with our fund. 1671 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:31,280 Speaker 4: Is essentially having a double bottom line, so you have 1672 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:34,600 Speaker 4: a financial return, but you also have some type of social. 1673 01:13:34,320 --> 01:13:35,880 Speaker 3: Or environmental return as well. 1674 01:13:36,360 --> 01:13:39,320 Speaker 4: So we look at it as a very intentional investment 1675 01:13:39,320 --> 01:13:44,560 Speaker 4: approach to revitalizing communities. And you know, we're looking at Nashville, Atlanta, 1676 01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:48,759 Speaker 4: Austin where my partner is, Coachville where I'm from. There's 1677 01:13:48,880 --> 01:13:52,320 Speaker 4: opportunity zones in all these cities, and you know, we 1678 01:13:52,439 --> 01:13:54,719 Speaker 4: have relationships within all. 1679 01:13:54,560 --> 01:13:56,919 Speaker 1: These markets, and you're just trying to be more intimate 1680 01:13:57,040 --> 01:13:59,479 Speaker 1: with those areas other than letting the very top yes, 1681 01:13:59,600 --> 01:14:01,880 Speaker 1: just kind of side here's where all, here's what this 1682 01:14:01,920 --> 01:14:02,640 Speaker 1: money is going to go to. 1683 01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:03,760 Speaker 2: So then it doesn't kind of. 1684 01:14:04,040 --> 01:14:06,680 Speaker 4: Separate exactly, because if you look around Nashville, it's like 1685 01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:08,840 Speaker 4: how many cranes are in the sky bro. 1686 01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:14,560 Speaker 2: Like fifty Americas crane or megascrans are here? Are you serious? 1687 01:14:14,560 --> 01:14:15,920 Speaker 2: Some percentage like that. 1688 01:14:15,600 --> 01:14:18,240 Speaker 4: That's high so like, but if you go drive around 1689 01:14:18,280 --> 01:14:23,560 Speaker 4: North Nashville, like it's pushing out to North Nashville. 1690 01:14:23,320 --> 01:14:26,800 Speaker 3: But what you see are people like these sleazy developers. 1691 01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:29,600 Speaker 4: If I had if you're if you're a resident in 1692 01:14:29,640 --> 01:14:31,479 Speaker 4: a home and I want to buy your home and 1693 01:14:31,520 --> 01:14:34,920 Speaker 4: you won't sell it, they'll go tell Metro and report 1694 01:14:35,000 --> 01:14:37,560 Speaker 4: codes on you and say, look, they're not in compliance, 1695 01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:39,720 Speaker 4: their their roof is messed up, or they're you're not 1696 01:14:39,880 --> 01:14:42,160 Speaker 4: following this, so you can get evicted and I come 1697 01:14:42,200 --> 01:14:44,320 Speaker 4: and snatch your home up so I can tear it 1698 01:14:44,360 --> 01:14:47,360 Speaker 4: down and build a tall and skinny and have somebody 1699 01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:51,840 Speaker 4: move in. Yeah, yeah, yeah, a lot exactly. So that's 1700 01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:54,160 Speaker 4: what you see is happening. These people are are not 1701 01:14:54,720 --> 01:14:56,960 Speaker 4: you know, privy to what's going on, and they're getting 1702 01:14:56,960 --> 01:14:59,920 Speaker 4: taken advantage of because they just don't have the financial literacy, 1703 01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:03,200 Speaker 4: the education understand it. And so that's what I'm trying 1704 01:15:03,240 --> 01:15:05,960 Speaker 4: to prevent, you know, and play my role prevent from happening. 1705 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,080 Speaker 4: And so yeah, I mean that's what I've been focused 1706 01:15:08,120 --> 01:15:10,040 Speaker 4: on the last couple of months, and we're trying to 1707 01:15:10,080 --> 01:15:11,040 Speaker 4: really do it the right way. 1708 01:15:11,680 --> 01:15:14,320 Speaker 2: That's awesome.

And so I 1738 01:16:17,160 --> 01:16:19,760 Speaker 4: think it's all about mindset, right, you know, it's all 1739 01:16:19,800 --> 01:16:23,639 Speaker 4: about your approach and your mentality on certain situations. So 1740 01:16:23,920 --> 01:16:26,240 Speaker 4: if you focus on the bad, that's all you're going 1741 01:16:26,280 --> 01:16:28,280 Speaker 4: to see is bad. But if you focus on the 1742 01:16:28,360 --> 01:16:30,320 Speaker 4: you know, the positive outlook, and you'll start to see 1743 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,840 Speaker 4: the opportunities in it. And that's exactly how I approached it. 1744 01:16:32,880 --> 01:16:35,439 Speaker 4: And so for me, I think it worked out because 1745 01:16:36,000 --> 01:16:38,559 Speaker 4: you know, playing four three m that's a lot more 1746 01:16:38,840 --> 01:16:41,480 Speaker 4: grinding and hitting three four outside linebacker. 1747 01:16:41,920 --> 01:16:43,439 Speaker 3: You're still in the in the trenches. 1748 01:16:43,479 --> 01:16:45,479 Speaker 4: But yeah, I might drop out for coverage every other 1749 01:16:45,520 --> 01:16:47,519 Speaker 4: couple of plays and that kind of staves your body. 1750 01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:49,439 Speaker 4: So I took it on the approach of that. And 1751 01:16:49,439 --> 01:16:51,000 Speaker 4: then when you have Dick with Bow coming in and 1752 01:16:51,040 --> 01:16:51,799 Speaker 4: running that three. 1753 01:16:51,760 --> 01:16:53,679 Speaker 2: Four, that's unreal. 1754 01:16:53,840 --> 01:16:55,840 Speaker 4: I love that three before I could play that, you know, 1755 01:16:56,000 --> 01:16:58,439 Speaker 4: for ten years. And so you know, it's all about 1756 01:16:58,439 --> 01:17:01,040 Speaker 4: the scheme fit. And I think that the scheme, the 1757 01:17:01,080 --> 01:17:04,000 Speaker 4: three four scheme fit me and guys like Brian and 1758 01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:05,880 Speaker 4: Rackbow skill set very well. 1759 01:17:05,920 --> 01:17:08,920 Speaker 3: Like we weren't dropping in the coverage every play. We 1760 01:17:08,920 --> 01:17:10,479 Speaker 3: weren't at the. 1761 01:17:10,479 --> 01:17:14,040 Speaker 4: Nose taking on double teams and doing things that were 1762 01:17:14,040 --> 01:17:16,680 Speaker 4: outside of our skill set, and so I think it's 1763 01:17:16,720 --> 01:17:19,000 Speaker 4: all about the scheme and it definitely helped us. 1764 01:17:19,400 --> 01:17:23,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I appreciate it. Boys. That was so understead Man. 1765 01:17:23,920 --> 01:17:24,640 Speaker 2: Thanks for coming on.
