You raised money for the 179 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 1: family of a Paralympic sprinter, Nick Mayhew to go see 180 00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:18,559 Speaker 1: him compete so his family could see him. You paid 181 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:21,760 Speaker 1: rent for Olympic discus thrower Veronica Freely. And you made 182 00:08:21,800 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 1: a custom bronze clock necklace for one of our faves, 183 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,960 Speaker 1: gymnast Jordan Childs, after her bronze medal was controversially rescinded 184 00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 1: at the Pairis Games. I want to hear about gifting 185 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: that clock to Jordan. Why did you want to do that. 186 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 2: Well, the reason why I wanted to do that is 187 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:38,640 Speaker 2: because it symbolizes the gold medal that they was trying 188 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: to take away from her. That she rightfully earned, you know, 189 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,640 Speaker 2: and that girl, I ain't gonna lie, but you know 190 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:49,080 Speaker 2: I was there once she won that medal. 191 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, the bronze that they there was a back and 192 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 1: forth on you that's right. 193 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 2: I was at that ceremony when they put that medal 194 00:08:56,559 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 2: around her neck, you know what I'm saying. And for 195 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 2: them to try to take that metal away from her, 196 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 2: I feel it was real wrong because she really went 197 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 2: out there and she earned that. She worked up butt off, 198 00:09:08,559 --> 00:09:11,719 Speaker 2: she flipped her butt off for that kit, and I 199 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 2: ain't gonna lie. She did a damn good job and 200 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: she deserved that metal. So for them to try to 201 00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 2: take that metal, I felt it was really really wrong, 202 00:09:20,640 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So when we gifted her 203 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 2: that clock, that wasn't to take the place of the metal. 204 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 2: That was just to symbolize that that's a metal that 205 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,839 Speaker 2: can never ever ever be taken away from her, And 206 00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:37,040 Speaker 2: that's why we did that. 207 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 3: And you wear the clock for a very specific reason. 208 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 3: Can you tell us why? 209 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:45,200 Speaker 2: Because time is the most important element that we have 210 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:47,880 Speaker 2: in our lifetime and we can't afford to waste none 211 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 2: of it. And as time goes on, you know what, 212 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:55,920 Speaker 2: I'm saying, as the minute hand goes around, we have 213 00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:01,079 Speaker 2: to use each second to our best value. Now, time 214 00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 2: brought us in and also yeah, time will take us out. 215 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 2: And I always say I'm clocking you. I'm clocking you. 216 00:10:09,400 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 2: That means I'm paying attention to you, so you can't 217 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 2: get fast on me because I already know what that happens. 218 00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 3: That's right. You always know what time it is. 219 00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,600 Speaker 2: So that's why I wear this clock, because because time 220 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 2: doesn't wait for nobody. As we stop, time keeps going 221 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:29,120 Speaker 2: no matter what. So while we live in while we 222 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 2: live in this one physical life, we only get life 223 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 2: physically once. So while we're living this one physical life, 224 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,679 Speaker 2: my take is to get all out of life you 225 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 2: can while you can. 226 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:44,640 Speaker 1: And you're using your time and you have I mean, 227 00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:46,959 Speaker 1: like I said in your bio, just a tiny little 228 00:10:46,960 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: bit of all the many, many, many things you've done. 229 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 1: And one of the things you've been focusing on lately 230 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: is this like hype man for Olympic events, some of 231 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: the ones that people maybe aren't paying as much money 232 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 1: for or paying as much attention to. 233 00:10:57,880 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 3: And this year you following up. 234 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:02,080 Speaker 1: Your work with the with the water polo team with 235 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,800 Speaker 1: the bob sled and skeleton team. So why did you 236 00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:07,040 Speaker 1: choose to get involved with those athletes in particular? 237 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 2: You know, when the team is it in the water 238 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 2: right in their home, they'll live in actual you know, lives, 239 00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,199 Speaker 2: two and three jobs, you know what I'm saying. And 240 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, when they go to practice and 241 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 2: they're in the water, it takes them away from their jobs, 242 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,440 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So when Maggie Stephens put 243 00:11:27,440 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 2: out that story about how difficult it was to be 244 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 2: in the water and yet still have these jobs, you 245 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying, she needed some help. So my 246 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 2: manager said, well, you know what, we should sponsor her. 247 00:11:43,160 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: I said, you know what, No, I think we should 248 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 2: sponsor the team. You know what I'm saying, I think 249 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 2: we should sponsor the team. So that's into sponsoring the 250 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 2: water polo team. So now I don't only sponsor just 251 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 2: the women's water polo team, but I sponsored the men's 252 00:11:59,679 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 2: polo team water polo team too as well. But now, 253 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 2: when it comes down when it comes down to women's sports, 254 00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:09,800 Speaker 2: women's sports is like the least paid attention to things, 255 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. 256 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,720 Speaker 4: And a lot of these women that are out. 257 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,320 Speaker 2: There busting their butts to look good or they wanted 258 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,600 Speaker 2: some recognition. You know, I'm a girl dad, I got 259 00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:23,600 Speaker 2: four daughters, I and I know what it's like for 260 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 2: my daughters to want to know what it feels like 261 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:29,360 Speaker 2: to be recognized for us something that they did good, 262 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying. So I feel by me 263 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:38,920 Speaker 2: sponsoring the United States Olympic water polo team that brought 264 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:43,760 Speaker 2: a lot more awareness to women's sports. 265 00:12:43,160 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 3: And so joyful. 266 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 1: I mean, we saw you in the pool with them, 267 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,959 Speaker 1: we saw you hypes them up at the games, and 268 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: even though Paris wasn't their best result, that's a team 269 00:12:51,640 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: that's been dominant for so many years. 270 00:12:53,640 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 3: And now you're at it again. 271 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,880 Speaker 1: You are actually in a bob's leed and a skeleton 272 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: out in Utah. 273 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 3: I have never done that.

Hey, 506 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:33,200 Speaker 2: y check this out. My first ball that I threw 507 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:36,920 Speaker 2: and I threw it over the net. The second one 508 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 2: that I threw, Ashley blocked it. The third one that 509 00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 2: I do, I scored. I said, oh, Sue, I scored 510 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: on Nashley Johnson. I start on Natalie Johnson. I swear 511 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,800 Speaker 2: I thought that was I thought I was the biggest cheese. 512 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 2: So they gave me the ball and they to try 513 00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 2: it again, try it again, honestly to tell you the truth. Okay, 514 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:10,320 Speaker 2: I scored on Ashley twice. I really think the first 515 00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:14,679 Speaker 2: time she let me do it, I think, but that 516 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 2: second time, though, she will be trying to block it, and. 517 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:22,440 Speaker 3: That was the real one. Yeah, that's amazing. 518 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:25,159 Speaker 1: I remember Maggie Stephan's talking about they were doing a 519 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 1: photo shoot with lebron as a water bowler player, and 520 00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 1: the shots were amazing. He's coming out of the water, 521 00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: he's looking like a pro, and she's like, yeah, me 522 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: and another girl were holding him up underwater, so it looked. 523 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 3: Like he could get that kind of elevation. 524 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,040 Speaker 1: But it's really hard to get hup out of the 525 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,159 Speaker 1: water when you're playing, so I don't know were there 526 00:26:40,280 --> 00:26:42,320 Speaker 1: were there at any of the players down underneath helping 527 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 1: you get enough getting enough angle on there. 528 00:26:44,880 --> 00:26:46,679 Speaker 2: Let me tell you something. When I was in the 529 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 2: water with those girls, I was in the water for 530 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:53,959 Speaker 2: full seven minutes. That was the hardest seven minutes I 531 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:58,560 Speaker 2: ever had in the water in my life. You know 532 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 2: what I'm saying now, that he taught me that to 533 00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 2: do the egg beating and all of that, keep myself 534 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:05,520 Speaker 2: on top of the water and everything and the whole nine. 535 00:27:06,119 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 2: I ain't gonna lie, but water polo, I really feel, 536 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:15,440 Speaker 2: is the hardest sport out of all of the sports 537 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:20,000 Speaker 2: because your feet is never ever touching the ground. I mean, 538 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 2: I mean you're you're in seven and a half to 539 00:27:22,840 --> 00:27:26,159 Speaker 2: eight feet of water, and your feet is just kicking 540 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 2: and swirling around and trying to keep yourself up, you know. 541 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,040 Speaker 2: And the one that I feel who has the hardest 542 00:27:33,160 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 2: job on the team is the goalie, because the goalie 543 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:42,160 Speaker 2: is just waiting around. So so she's just waiting, waiting water, 544 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:43,640 Speaker 2: waiting water, waiting water. 545 00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 1: Man. 546 00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,760 Speaker 2: I don't know how actually does it, but I commended 547 00:27:47,840 --> 00:27:50,760 Speaker 2: her for her strength to be in the water all 548 00:27:50,800 --> 00:27:53,600 Speaker 2: that time and to be able to block people's shots 549 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 2: and do. 550 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:55,520 Speaker 3: A goalie video star. 551 00:27:56,640 --> 00:27:58,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's hard. 552 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: I want to talk about what you just meant mentioned about, 553 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:02,600 Speaker 1: like you don't want to hate anyone. I feel like 554 00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: there's folks that followed your work in the eighties, nineties, 555 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:08,120 Speaker 1: even following you in the two thousands, they never would 556 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 1: have maybe imagined that you became the man that you 557 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 1: are now, especially the philanthropic turn you've taken. But you've 558 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,720 Speaker 1: spoken publicly a lot about wanting to change who you are, 559 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: change your life a bit, embracing a new approach to life. 560 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 1: You've talked about your sobriety journey after being addicted to 561 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,119 Speaker 1: crack cocaine and other things. You talked about getting out 562 00:28:25,160 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 1: of the legal troubles that you had, And I remember 563 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 1: in twenty twenty three you posted something that really moved me. 564 00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:32,679 Speaker 1: I sent you a message telling you how moved I 565 00:28:32,840 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 1: was by it. But you wrote, in part to everyone 566 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:36,960 Speaker 1: out there struggling with addiction. It's a real battle you 567 00:28:37,000 --> 00:28:38,920 Speaker 1: fight every day. But I'm still here, and you know 568 00:28:38,960 --> 00:28:40,320 Speaker 1: what I did it, and if I can do it, 569 00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: anyone can do it. To every media outlet that tries 570 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,560 Speaker 1: to capitalize on my goodwill trending topics and bring up 571 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 1: my past or old interviews for sensational clickbait headlines. Do 572 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: better and bring up my future, Allow for people to 573 00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: grow and change in a supportive manner, and don't let 574 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 1: anyone hold you on to your past. 575 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 3: I wear the clock. 576 00:28:56,560 --> 00:29:00,840 Speaker 1: My clock goes clockwise, not counterclockwise. Look forwards, not backwards. 577 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:04,560 Speaker 1: I think it is so moving for people to talk 578 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,560 Speaker 1: about the ability to change. Can you tell me about 579 00:29:07,560 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 1: that feeling of you wanting to move forward and be different? 580 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: But folks constantly trying to bring up the problems of 581 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 1: your past. 582 00:29:13,360 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 2: You know, we know that the past is definitely responsible 583 00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,280 Speaker 2: for the future. We all know that the past is 584 00:29:21,320 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 2: part of the future. People gotta understand that people can 585 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 2: change from negative to positive and they can grow. You've 586 00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:33,880 Speaker 2: got to give people a chance to grow and time 587 00:29:33,960 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 2: to grow, you know what I'm saying. But there's a 588 00:29:36,080 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 2: lot of things that we did yesterday that could teach 589 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 2: us how to have a better tomorrow. 590 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:44,560 Speaker 1: That's my favorite part is like the idea that like, 591 00:29:44,680 --> 00:29:46,479 Speaker 1: I'm going to learn from the mistakes I made. I'm 592 00:29:46,480 --> 00:29:48,240 Speaker 1: going to learn from the choices I made and become 593 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:50,200 Speaker 1: a better person. Let me try to be better. I 594 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:52,800 Speaker 1: actually there's this quote from ad Rock from The Beastie 595 00:29:52,800 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 1: Boys who said I'd rather be a hypocrite than the 596 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,320 Speaker 1: same person forever, Like I'd rather have you say, hey, 597 00:29:57,320 --> 00:29:58,320 Speaker 1: didn't you say this before? 598 00:29:58,360 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 3: And now you feel differently? 599 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:01,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I grew involved in change and now I'm 600 00:30:02,000 --> 00:30:03,640 Speaker 1: a different person, right right. 601 00:30:03,800 --> 00:30:06,240 Speaker 2: One thing you don't do is condemn the person for 602 00:30:06,280 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 2: their mistakes. Mistakes were made to learn from, you know 603 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:14,160 Speaker 2: what I'm saying. And as long as somebody keeps trying, it, 604 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 2: keeps trying, it, keeps trying, somewhere along the line, you're 605 00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:23,480 Speaker 2: guaranteed to succeed. But when you stop trying, then that's 606 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,920 Speaker 2: the guaranteed failure. And stop trying is a mistake. And 607 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 2: I wrote a song called Kim Kim. It means keep 608 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 2: it moving. Got to keep it moving. You gotta keep 609 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 2: it moving. Then you just don't stop. If you stop moving, 610 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:40,240 Speaker 2: then shit don't pop. The only way to get it 611 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 2: is to go out and get it. And if you 612 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 2: don't get it, then you just wasn't with it. 613 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 1: But I like that you said you got to learn 614 00:30:48,040 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: from them and then keep moving, because it's not about 615 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:53,240 Speaker 1: ignoring your mistake or forgetting that you made it. It's 616 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,200 Speaker 1: about learning from it and then changing and then people 617 00:30:55,240 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: letting you change it, and I admire that so much 618 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:00,320 Speaker 1: from you. You working hard to get sober, wanting to change, 619 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 1: to get better, to move past the criminal activity and 620 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:05,840 Speaker 1: other things. But you're just an example to so many 621 00:31:05,840 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 1: people that need to see that that kind of change 622 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,440 Speaker 1: can happen. And you're also an example to people like 623 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:13,280 Speaker 1: me to be reminded that people aren't the worst of 624 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: what they've done, that you can evolve and change, and 625 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 1: you can amend for your mistakes and your transgressions and 626 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,560 Speaker 1: become someone who wants to put good out in the world. 627 00:31:20,600 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 1: Because I got to tell you, flavor Is nineties and 628 00:31:22,920 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: two thousands, I would have been critical of the things 629 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 1: that you did, the choices you made. 630 00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:27,640 Speaker 3: The way you hurt people. 631 00:31:27,920 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 1: The person who I am now knows that those kind 632 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:33,080 Speaker 1: of choices, those things that are self sabotaging, are coming 633 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 1: from somewhere that needs to be healed and figured out 634 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,600 Speaker 1: so that you can get to a place where you're 635 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 1: not doing them anymore. But you got to give people 636 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:40,040 Speaker 1: the way the hope to do that. 637 00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:42,480 Speaker 4: You know, everybody have they days sometime. 638 00:31:42,840 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, where only you men, you 639 00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:49,280 Speaker 2: know what I'm saying and all humans have they days, 640 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:52,440 Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying.
