01:43.156 --> 01:49.500
[SPEAKER_00]: We like to start in the beginning of the story to get out of you as a better idea of the who, the what, the win, the why, and the how.
01:49.921 --> 01:52.262
[SPEAKER_00]: So with that being said, you said you was from near a shell.
01:52.362 --> 01:54.824
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, Westchester, New York, not one for a stand-up.
01:54.844 --> 01:56.005

01:57.165 --> 01:58.686
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so I'm like the north side.
01:58.806 --> 02:00.688
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, kind of about the near a shell.
02:00.728 --> 02:01.788
[SPEAKER_01]: Right around the block from near a shell.
02:02.929 --> 02:05.771
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, oh, wow, New Row, New Row, okay.
02:05.811 --> 02:09.493
[SPEAKER_00]: So with that being said, over there in New York, what was the household looking like for Mark, man?
02:09.533 --> 02:11.054
[SPEAKER_00]: How was his family dynamic?
02:11.374 --> 02:15.937
[SPEAKER_01]: I grew up, my tool, this sister, my mother and my grandmother and my grandfather and my grandfather were next to her.
02:16.776 --> 02:18.458
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, my dad left when I was younger.
02:18.758 --> 02:21.541
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, I was probably like, seven, eight years old.
02:21.781 --> 02:22.041
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh-huh.
02:22.221 --> 02:26.245
[SPEAKER_01]: And then yeah, group of two older sisters, one went to Marie Regina, one went to the high school.
02:26.265 --> 02:27.686
[SPEAKER_01]: I ended up going to the high school.
02:27.746 --> 02:28.086
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
02:28.367 --> 02:28.647
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
02:28.747 --> 02:29.408
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, go on, you know.
02:29.828 --> 02:33.952
[SPEAKER_00]: That's good to see because often, like, society puts a lot of, uh,
02:34.272 --> 02:43.716
[SPEAKER_00]: stigmas and norms on people and people would see you and would think like you grew up with both parents that sometimes gets classified as, you know, more so a minority thing not to make it about that.
02:44.156 --> 02:47.598
[SPEAKER_00]: But I've talked about how to affect the Jew growing up without your old man.
02:47.638 --> 02:48.418
[SPEAKER_00]: Did you know it, especially?
02:48.438 --> 02:49.139
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all women.
02:49.279 --> 02:50.339
[SPEAKER_00]: That's all women in the house.
02:50.359 --> 02:51.079
[SPEAKER_00]: You know what I'm saying?
02:51.099 --> 02:52.100
[SPEAKER_00]: You said a nuts and a house.
02:52.720 --> 02:54.401
[SPEAKER_00]: So how was that?
02:54.421 --> 02:55.581
[SPEAKER_00]: Was that something that you feel like?
02:55.661 --> 02:58.983
[SPEAKER_00]: Did you notice the difference at with him being there versus not being there?
03:00.296 --> 03:05.658
[SPEAKER_01]: To be honest with you, my sister, both my sister's made it all out easier.
03:05.838 --> 03:06.478
[SPEAKER_01]: Really lucky.
03:06.618 --> 03:11.740
[SPEAKER_01]: Wow, yeah, my mom was, my mom was, you know, he didn't do the right thing.
03:12.000 --> 03:15.121
[SPEAKER_01]: Obviously, you know, that means she was crushed.
03:15.181 --> 03:17.222
[SPEAKER_01]: So it was like us three, had to stick together.
03:17.242 --> 03:22.163
[SPEAKER_01]: So we're thicker than these and growing up, what I, I always say the same thing to everybody.
03:23.424 --> 03:27.205
[SPEAKER_01]: If I had to do it all over again, and I could pick, I would pick older sisters over brothers any day.
03:27.437 --> 03:28.258
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow, really.
03:28.298 --> 03:30.900
[SPEAKER_01]: Just because maybe because I had the two best oldies.
03:30.920 --> 03:31.461
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I don't know.
03:32.021 --> 03:33.523
[SPEAKER_01]: I just feel like you're the baby.
03:33.663 --> 03:34.163
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm the baby.
03:34.183 --> 03:34.904
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
03:34.924 --> 03:36.265
[SPEAKER_01]: And the marquee, yeah.
03:36.365 --> 03:37.566
[SPEAKER_01]: And they definitely spoiled me.
03:37.606 --> 03:38.427
[SPEAKER_01]: Spoiled me with love.
03:38.447 --> 03:38.847
[SPEAKER_01]: They're good.
03:38.887 --> 03:39.588
[SPEAKER_01]: They're the best.
03:39.628 --> 03:45.614
[SPEAKER_01]: And my sister, who's three years older than me, Julia, is we were super close growing on my other sister's 10 years older.
03:45.794 --> 03:46.434
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay.
03:46.595 --> 03:49.077
[SPEAKER_01]: So she was more like a mom, but she was the best, too.
03:49.097 --> 03:50.878
[SPEAKER_01]: They just, you know, they helped me a lot.
03:51.179 --> 03:51.399
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
03:51.667 --> 03:57.350
[SPEAKER_00]: What are some things you being a young boy that you learn from women?
03:57.390 --> 03:58.630
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, what shall I look on?
03:58.670 --> 04:01.852
[SPEAKER_00]: What did you learn about women living in a household like that?
04:02.552 --> 04:04.513
[SPEAKER_01]: I definitely learned how they work.
04:04.833 --> 04:05.073
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
04:05.613 --> 04:05.894
[SPEAKER_01]: You know?
04:06.134 --> 04:06.634
[SPEAKER_01]: It works.
04:06.734 --> 04:07.955
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to say that.
04:08.335 --> 04:10.636
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to say about treating women.
04:10.876 --> 04:11.096
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
04:11.116 --> 04:12.337
[SPEAKER_01]: We've all been young.
04:12.397 --> 04:13.597
[SPEAKER_01]: Listen, you know?
04:13.637 --> 04:16.078
[SPEAKER_01]: But I definitely learned how they work.
04:16.378 --> 04:16.618
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
04:16.979 --> 04:19.780
[SPEAKER_01]: I could read a woman better than I could read a dude.
04:20.400 --> 04:36.443
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but it's probably because growing up with them being around them all the time I'm seeing their patterns and you know what I mean knowing what pisses them off Yeah, that goes Irritable and Definitely learning the the do's and don't What I say and not to what not to say around them.
04:36.563 --> 04:45.345
[SPEAKER_01]: That's three menstrual cycles You got it done Yes, right I think grandpa was going by the time I was 12 so it was really that was it.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
05:08.525 --> 05:12.505
[SPEAKER_00]: What that being said, if you could remember when Mark was a kid, what was the first thing he wanted to be?

05:45.027 --> 06:02.706
[SPEAKER_01]: y'all I can't afford it or having that like as a man now like I never want to feel that way okay if I have kids to tell them you can't have it or because we can't afford it or just just I wanted to be I maybe rich was wrong or maybe it was just successful right whatever it was it was just financially stable successful rich whatever you want to say just because
06:03.447 --> 06:14.349

[SPEAKER_01]: Up until I was like 16, 17, and I started to, you know how close when you get into that, the mom hates the dad, but the dad wants the son.
12:05.805 --> 12:09.948
[SPEAKER_01]: But Vaxista wanted no part because he got caught cheating and shit.

[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't know he had that whole family on the side when my mom and I was a little kid.
12:42.712 --> 12:44.653
[SPEAKER_01]: And so we like, we like, lost touch.
12:45.393 --> 12:51.257
[SPEAKER_01]: And the reason that I moved in with him is because after WCC, my mom moved to Primuda.
12:51.697 --> 12:52.337
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, wow.
12:52.397 --> 12:55.199

[SPEAKER_01]: And then I'll take you.
13:13.493 --> 13:15.014
[SPEAKER_01]: And we moved, and I moved in there.
13:15.054 --> 13:17.477
[SPEAKER_01]: And I remember my sister finished college and she moved in.
13:17.497 --> 13:20.299
[SPEAKER_01]: And we were always sitting around like, how the fuck are we going to get out of here?
13:22.361 --> 13:31.391
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and then when I was done with done with Pennsylvania College of Technology, I was like, I'm not fucking moving back and guess who came and saved the day.
13:31.451 --> 13:35.636
[SPEAKER_01]: Greg, Greg and Uncle Greg, you're like, you're like, come on, my aunt had just passed Greg's mother.
13:35.976 --> 13:38.599
[SPEAKER_01]: Where's the new fear I sent me as my aunt cash to my godmother?
13:38.860 --> 13:40.261
[SPEAKER_01]: And I fucking...
13:41.162 --> 13:42.143
[SPEAKER_01]: I moved in with that man.
13:42.163 --> 13:43.104
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like a bash of it.
13:43.364 --> 13:44.545
[SPEAKER_01]: Fuck, I don't have enough blinds.
13:44.565 --> 13:45.346
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, just us three.
13:45.446 --> 13:47.207
[SPEAKER_01]: And he like, Greg's dad is not.
13:47.247 --> 13:48.268
[SPEAKER_01]: He's heavy, drinker.
13:48.629 --> 13:49.930
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd be sitting there making him drinks.
13:49.950 --> 13:50.710
[SPEAKER_01]: We'd be party day.
13:50.750 --> 13:52.332
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me have my friends in the backyard.
13:52.352 --> 13:53.533
[SPEAKER_00]: Greg's dad's the best.
13:53.653 --> 13:55.875
[SPEAKER_01]: And Greg was that, yeah, obviously, Greg was like an older brother than me.
13:55.895 --> 13:57.797
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's exactly how that went down.
13:57.817 --> 13:59.798
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I was like 20, 21 at that point.
14:00.499 --> 14:03.021
[SPEAKER_00]: Talk to me about what does family mean to Mark?
14:03.341 --> 14:04.082
[SPEAKER_00]: What's family, yeah?
14:04.703 --> 14:05.023
[SPEAKER_00]: So,
14:06.035 --> 14:09.157
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got a lot of different perspectives on family.
14:09.218 --> 14:17.464
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you have, you can technically say, you know, family abandonment and then you also have family structure as far as, as far as, you know, you guys are tight.
14:17.644 --> 14:17.944
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
14:18.004 --> 14:19.806
[SPEAKER_00]: So with the million side, come from.
14:19.846 --> 14:21.407
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's my mom.
14:21.527 --> 14:21.847
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
14:21.887 --> 14:22.708
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the million side.
14:22.728 --> 14:25.590
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's my mom and my dad's an only child.
14:25.610 --> 14:27.231
[SPEAKER_01]: So yes, I have no aunt's uncle's on that side.
14:27.292 --> 14:30.274
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, um, which probably explains why, you know, right.
14:30.294 --> 14:30.934
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll fuck that.
14:31.395 --> 14:32.355
[SPEAKER_01]: But um, shut up.
14:32.516 --> 14:33.917
[SPEAKER_01]: I am.
14:35.998 --> 14:41.959
[SPEAKER_01]: I say this to everybody, and if everybody, I've out for a bit, it doesn't happen, right?
14:42.079 --> 14:45.580
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody in the world passed away tomorrow, and Julia was alive, I'd be okay.
14:46.360 --> 14:47.661
[SPEAKER_01]: We're doing it.
14:47.681 --> 14:49.361
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'd be fine.
14:49.481 --> 14:54.102
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the most important person until I marry my wife and have a shoulder with my wife.
14:54.362 --> 14:54.622
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
14:55.002 --> 14:57.923
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, hopefully that's the person I'm with now, hopefully that works out.
14:58.563 --> 14:59.323
[SPEAKER_01]: 100%.
14:59.503 --> 15:02.844
[SPEAKER_01]: That is number one to me because she saved my life.
15:03.944 --> 15:12.470
[SPEAKER_01]: every week, weekend, we out that woman, that girl, what everyone will call her, woman now, girl, then is the only reason I'm alive.
15:12.850 --> 15:16.812
[SPEAKER_01]: And even in my adulthood, when I went through, I went through a lot of shit.
15:16.893 --> 15:18.794
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure you remember, I went away for a little while.
15:18.894 --> 15:19.374
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely.
15:19.554 --> 15:21.435
[SPEAKER_01]: If and then Greg.
15:22.336 --> 15:26.539
[SPEAKER_01]: Greg's number two, but if Greg was my brother, yeah, it'd be Greg, but Julia's my sister.
15:26.919 --> 15:27.720
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, never let me,
15:28.580 --> 15:35.244
[SPEAKER_01]: Never let me fall, you know, she would, I would remember I was young, every, for three years straight.
15:35.944 --> 15:40.326
[SPEAKER_01]: I was probably six, seven, eight, or seven, eight, ninth, whatever it was of my years of growing up.
15:41.067 --> 15:43.408
[SPEAKER_01]: My mom was just in a bad place, a really dark place.
15:43.588 --> 15:48.331
[SPEAKER_01]: You're not doing, you know, motherly things and being a tad on the abusive side.
15:49.111 --> 15:51.452
[SPEAKER_01]: And I remember Julia was so good at cheerleading.
15:51.612 --> 15:54.474
[SPEAKER_01]: When Nerusha was number one in the nation, she was the captain.
15:54.794 --> 15:56.515
[SPEAKER_01]: And she said to her coach, she was like,
15:58.519 --> 16:01.161
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't go to chair camp and be away from my brother for two weeks.
16:01.201 --> 16:07.285
[SPEAKER_01]: So I came to chair camp and I would sit in the, and I would sleep in the dorms with the, with the coach.
16:07.886 --> 16:08.326
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
16:08.386 --> 16:09.767
[SPEAKER_01]: She was like, I don't want my brother alone.
16:09.847 --> 16:10.888
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what's going to happen.
16:11.348 --> 16:15.531
[SPEAKER_01]: So Chris, he was the coach and she said, your brother's fucking company.
16:15.711 --> 16:19.334
[SPEAKER_01]: And you remember, you ever see a movie, a league of their own?
16:20.194 --> 16:21.295
[SPEAKER_01]: Just for women's baseball.
16:23.670 --> 16:44.754
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and she and it was her one of the player's sons and he brought her He brought him everywhere and he would and they would call him in his name was still well, and he would go You didn't lose and I would fuck all the girls and they would call me still Oh, they love me and then I grow up and you know you see them look you're like a grown-in like, yeah, I'm not fucking nine anymore You know, you see six great and more.

[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, that's the kind of relationship that I have with her and Like she's the beneficiary.
16:50.295 --> 16:52.116
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like my my pension
16:55.562 --> 17:14.789
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, obviously when I have children and things go but that's just a level of who she is to me Yeah, and then Greg and Greg like, you know, we went through I went through family shit and Greg was like fucking right there with me You know, Greg has never turned a blind eye to me But it's just a different relationship because Julia grew up in the house a hundred percent you know what I mean?

[SPEAKER_00]: As we talk, I'm very large and like, you don't look like what you've been through because like just doing it like little tags of things and like I said, I'm gonna think and I'm just like, wow.
17:47.605 --> 17:47.905
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
17:48.105 --> 17:54.992
[SPEAKER_00]: What are some things you do as far as for mental health as far as just dealing with trauma and how do you decompress that as Mark.
17:55.793 --> 17:57.775
[SPEAKER_00]: Now or the past 10 years.
17:59.003 --> 18:07.390
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, because we got to start, you know, but I would say now and before we get in because after you answer that, yeah, I would say now like what is what do you do to decompress with with all of those things?

[SPEAKER_01]: That boy, you know, yeah, I've been around trust me fucking walking into the gym bloodshot ice Yeah, you can before I got there.
18:29.605 --> 18:43.750
[SPEAKER_01]: I made it Yeah, but um, I think when I was younger it was partying Always recreationally messed around with drugs never got into drugs never was like a drug person Yeah, never got like I never got a hold of me, but I definitely did too much.
18:43.970 --> 18:52.173
[SPEAKER_01]: You know how that goes 100% a good drugs got me in trouble in my life And um, I think now I was in Queens for a very long time almost 10 years
18:53.134 --> 18:56.235
[SPEAKER_01]: And when I came back to Nurshell, I had a failed relationship.
18:56.775 --> 18:58.096
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I came back to Nurshell.
18:58.116 --> 19:00.217
[SPEAKER_01]: My grandmother's 91 years old just dementia.
19:00.397 --> 19:08.660
[SPEAKER_01]: So I came back to Nurshell and I moved back into the house that I grew up in at 34.
19:09.160 --> 19:15.803
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I'm 35 now, no, 34, 34, 34, 35, because it's been over a year, about to be 36.
19:16.803 --> 19:21.104
[SPEAKER_01]: And I started to get into this the darkest place I've ever
19:22.573 --> 19:27.615
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was trying to figure out what's going on and that, like, the off-the-chain partying.
19:27.936 --> 19:28.256
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
19:28.736 --> 19:30.817
[SPEAKER_01]: It's laying in bed crazy thoughts.
19:31.077 --> 19:31.417
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
19:31.777 --> 19:39.881
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and my sister was like, dude, you're in the fucking house that you grew up in with all this trauma.
19:39.921 --> 19:40.822
[SPEAKER_01]: It's in the walls.
19:40.942 --> 19:41.662
[SPEAKER_01]: I told you to do.
19:42.242 --> 19:42.803
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like,
19:43.443 --> 19:47.004
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm telling you thoughts that I never think thought that I would have.
19:47.144 --> 19:47.444
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
19:47.564 --> 19:53.947
[SPEAKER_01]: And if you know what I mean, you know, you know, I'm like, this isn't even me, you know, and I never struggle with mental health.
19:54.187 --> 19:56.007
[SPEAKER_01]: So then immediately I went into therapy.
19:56.187 --> 19:56.488
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
19:56.788 --> 19:59.649
[SPEAKER_01]: And I had like, you know, you know how it is.
19:59.709 --> 20:01.489
[SPEAKER_01]: And you know how Greg is, you know, your family is.
20:01.509 --> 20:01.989
[SPEAKER_01]: Definitely.
20:02.029 --> 20:02.750
[SPEAKER_01]: Stop being a pussy.
20:02.950 --> 20:03.190
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
20:03.710 --> 20:08.731
[SPEAKER_01]: But sometimes, Greg's not like that, but that's the machismo thing, and I always thought that way.
20:08.771 --> 20:14.953
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was always like looking at these people in the internet, looking at people that talked, and I'm like, I'm not fucking doing that.
20:14.993 --> 20:15.733
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna work out.
20:15.913 --> 20:16.814
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna shut the fuck up.
20:16.914 --> 20:17.974
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a man.
20:18.134 --> 20:26.897
[SPEAKER_01]: I do that still, but, and then I was going a lot, and it helped, and then like, I got a little bit better, and then I stopped, and now I'm going back.
20:27.277 --> 20:28.017
[SPEAKER_01]: Now I thought I'm doing bad.
20:28.037 --> 20:29.117
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing better than I've ever been.
20:29.317 --> 20:30.718
[SPEAKER_01]: I have like the best woman in my life.
20:31.098 --> 20:31.378
[SPEAKER_01]: I have
20:32.347 --> 20:35.048
[SPEAKER_01]: all my family, I'm like in a great place, you know what I mean?
20:35.068 --> 20:42.010
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm starting a business, I'm in a really good place at my career, my job, and I'm like, you know what, fucking, I don't want to derail myself.
20:42.030 --> 20:45.971
[SPEAKER_01]: I made a little bit of a, I had a little bit of a setback, and I personally am not going to get into that.
20:45.991 --> 20:50.632
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course, which, but I'm still doing great, but then I was like, you know, fuck this, I got to go back and figure out why I did that.
20:51.099 --> 20:56.100
[SPEAKER_01]: And you have to dig into why you, like why you are, why you do, and it's not always your mom.
20:56.140 --> 20:58.280
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not always your dad, and it could be your friend group.
20:58.300 --> 21:04.962
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I realized a lot of the shit that I've dealt with, a lot of like, I went through a lot of shit with my friends, like they would treat me like shit when I was younger.
21:05.002 --> 21:05.442
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
21:05.542 --> 21:09.163
[SPEAKER_01]: Or I would do something bad to lash out, or there's a reason.
21:09.183 --> 21:11.443
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not like I said, it's not always your mom, and not always your dad's.
21:12.183 --> 21:19.525
[SPEAKER_01]: I figured the, to answer your question directly in an unhealthy way, I always party to escape it, and in a healthy way now,
21:20.305 --> 21:21.846
[SPEAKER_01]: I've like, stop drinking so much.
21:22.046 --> 21:22.906
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm on this kick.
21:22.926 --> 21:24.547
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll get into that, you know what I mean?
21:24.587 --> 21:28.569
[SPEAKER_01]: Because you don't want to be drinking, and I'm on the fitness thing, and I'm like, fuck it.
21:28.990 --> 21:34.372
[SPEAKER_01]: And like last night, we went out to dinner, and I had one drink, my boy's like, you know, the best, is one of my best friends.
21:34.392 --> 21:37.654
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like, I have a fucking drink, and I'm like, finished half of it, and I'm like, oh, I want to work out tomorrow.
21:37.674 --> 21:40.215
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to feel good, you know, and that's really it.
21:40.255 --> 21:41.096
[SPEAKER_01]: Now I'm going to go back.
21:41.176 --> 21:48.720
[SPEAKER_01]: I have an appointment, my first appointment is actually Tuesday after work, and I'm going to talk to this lady and dig deeper into what I got to do to be better.
21:49.081 --> 21:53.578
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think anything happens by accident so I think at some point you had to go back.
21:53.860 --> 21:56.240
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, you had to go back in the dress.
21:56.280 --> 21:57.901
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's like two different movies.
21:57.941 --> 21:59.641
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I went ahead of story, Lion King.
21:59.661 --> 22:00.941
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if you saw it.
22:00.961 --> 22:03.582
[SPEAKER_00]: When Simba ran off and Nala came to get him.
22:03.602 --> 22:04.502
[SPEAKER_00]: You had to come back home.
22:04.562 --> 22:08.102
[SPEAKER_00]: You can only run from, you know, to place that change your life for so long.
22:08.383 --> 22:08.763
[SPEAKER_00]: It's good for you.
22:08.783 --> 22:10.043
[SPEAKER_00]: You had to go back in the dress.
22:10.183 --> 22:11.923
[SPEAKER_00]: And then also, I think Godfather, too.
22:11.963 --> 22:14.484
[SPEAKER_00]: Michael was talking to, uh, paying tangibly.
22:14.504 --> 22:16.244
[SPEAKER_01]: So I father told me a lot of things in this room.
22:16.264 --> 22:20.345
[SPEAKER_00]: You'd be surprised like the mind is very, wow, that's dope.
22:21.145 --> 22:21.465
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
22:21.865 --> 22:22.145
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
22:22.925 --> 22:25.968
[SPEAKER_00]: When Mark gets out of college, what does Mark do?
22:26.288 --> 22:28.610
[SPEAKER_00]: First of all, what does Mark do then?
22:28.930 --> 22:31.052
[SPEAKER_00]: What's Mark's career path now?
22:31.092 --> 22:31.972
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you get at a school?
22:32.133 --> 22:34.194
[SPEAKER_01]: Instantly going to the fitness industry.
22:34.254 --> 22:35.936
[SPEAKER_01]: I start working at New York Sports Club.
22:36.236 --> 22:36.536
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
22:36.936 --> 22:38.678
[SPEAKER_01]: And Neuroshow in the Trump building.
22:38.738 --> 22:39.478
[SPEAKER_00]: I still work out there.
22:39.639 --> 22:40.559
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
22:40.820 --> 22:43.682
[SPEAKER_01]: Membership sales, met a couple cool people.
22:44.337 --> 22:46.578
[SPEAKER_01]: and then I moved on to equinox.
22:47.438 --> 22:51.700
[SPEAKER_01]: And I worked in equinox in the marinix for a while and I had my own apartment.
22:52.480 --> 23:00.863
[SPEAKER_01]: My first apartment, 22 years old and you know, fucking scratching, panes together to pay rent, my electric, getting shot off, you know, you're a young dog.
23:00.903 --> 23:01.543
[SPEAKER_01]: You're still out.
23:01.563 --> 23:02.824
[SPEAKER_01]: Me too, that's a good, that's it.
23:02.844 --> 23:04.464
[SPEAKER_01]: Some tries to get out, you know?
23:04.504 --> 23:05.485
[SPEAKER_01]: I have my grandmother.
23:05.745 --> 23:07.305
[SPEAKER_01]: Shout out my grandma, she always health me.
23:07.425 --> 23:08.626
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I'm short on rent.
23:08.666 --> 23:10.306
[SPEAKER_00]: They get us 500, don't fucking tell anyone.
23:10.466 --> 23:11.147
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
23:11.387 --> 23:12.327
[SPEAKER_01]: But, um, let's go.
23:12.487 --> 23:21.271
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I get out, I do that, and then my best friend growing up, moved from the Bronx, he moved into nourishel, and his father owned the construction business.
23:21.311 --> 23:25.352
[SPEAKER_01]: So I went to Pennsylvania College of Technology for construction management, you know what I mean?
23:25.372 --> 23:28.013
[SPEAKER_01]: So he was coming to economics, his father.
23:28.954 --> 23:31.635
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was always complaining to Mike, Mike, who's he.
23:31.675 --> 23:37.477
[SPEAKER_01]: I was always complaining to him, oh my God, this sucks, and he's like, listen, I'm actually just talking about that.
23:37.817 --> 23:39.618
[SPEAKER_01]: So I see him in economics when he's there, it comes to me.
23:39.838 --> 23:41.639
[SPEAKER_01]: So I go down to the Bronx, it's offices in the Bronx.
23:42.327 --> 23:46.468
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, listen, I made $90,000 at Equinox one year.
23:46.488 --> 23:49.208
[SPEAKER_01]: And at 20 years old, you know, that's fucking money.
23:49.488 --> 23:51.309
[SPEAKER_01]: I was who would sell in membership.
23:51.669 --> 24:09.473
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, so I was like, 22 years old, I was chilling, that was after I started, you know, and I did, like, I did really about 87,000, whatever it was, you know, and Mike's father looks at me and he was like, listen, I'm gonna pay you for a year to shut up and learn and take notes, but I'm giving you $45,000.
24:12.320 --> 24:14.240
[SPEAKER_01]: Dude, you're giving me fucking, I'm 20 years old.
24:14.801 --> 24:16.461
[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm like, you're giving me half the money I'm making.
24:16.481 --> 24:18.782
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm like thinking I got this big dick, like, oh, yeah.
24:18.982 --> 24:21.702
[SPEAKER_01]: But Mike's like, oh, dude, I'm telling you something.
24:21.722 --> 24:24.683
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, my dad drives a Ferrari and a fucking has a family.
24:24.723 --> 24:26.323
[SPEAKER_01]: And like, owns a huge construction company.
24:26.344 --> 24:27.624
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you'd be stupid.
24:27.704 --> 24:29.784
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a step back to take 10 steps forward.
24:29.864 --> 24:30.324
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
24:30.425 --> 24:31.145
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not the mic.
24:31.285 --> 24:31.785
[SPEAKER_01]: So I do it.
24:32.865 --> 24:34.426
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how that's how that ended.
24:34.446 --> 24:36.086
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I did it and then I'm still in it.
24:36.346 --> 24:38.447
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, to this day, I'm still doing construction.
24:38.687 --> 24:40.047
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I started learning.
24:41.420 --> 24:48.226
[SPEAKER_01]: I was a superintendent, which is just a supervisor, but I was taking notes from this old, this old fucking Spanish guy who was great in his job.
24:48.706 --> 24:50.448
[SPEAKER_01]: He taught me everything, Mike, taught me a lot of stuff.
24:50.468 --> 24:54.491
[SPEAKER_01]: I was on a big job with Mike, and they all treated me like a little brother.
24:54.951 --> 25:00.436
[SPEAKER_01]: The cozy family from the minute I started working, and they've always treated my family even before I worked there.
25:00.616 --> 25:06.701
[SPEAKER_01]: But Mike, his brother Dominic, his sister Christina, his father called all the boss up until the day I left there, treated me like family.
25:06.721 --> 25:08.262
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I see Dominic two months ago.
25:08.382 --> 25:10.104
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, right, right, I'm having a drink hanging out.
25:11.476 --> 25:16.337
[SPEAKER_01]: I left ultimately, but they always did the right thing by me.
25:16.357 --> 25:18.898
[SPEAKER_00]: What are some of the responsibilities of a superintendent?
25:19.338 --> 25:21.779
[SPEAKER_00]: For you, we're sure you had the advantage.
25:21.899 --> 25:27.801
[SPEAKER_01]: So, at that point, I was managing small, like, $5 to $10 million jobs.
25:28.081 --> 25:30.202
[SPEAKER_01]: And he was starving, I was leaving.
25:30.282 --> 25:32.162
[SPEAKER_01]: In the infrastructure industry, that's more.
25:33.443 --> 25:35.543
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm a little small to the other end.
25:35.623 --> 25:37.364
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, it's an upwards of $400 million.
25:37.404 --> 25:37.604
[SPEAKER_01]: But...
25:38.953 --> 25:42.575
[SPEAKER_01]: Back then it was like he put me on this he gave me a really good opportunity to put me on this park.
25:42.695 --> 25:47.498
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a park job I'm I'm up in on Amsterdam and and Autobahn Avenue in the heights.
25:47.718 --> 25:58.925
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, and by Yeshua University They date 187 street was in between Autobahn and Amsterdam and they they demoed it and made a park instead of a cross street Yeah, and he put me on it.
25:58.945 --> 26:00.066
[SPEAKER_01]: There's water sewer.
26:00.166 --> 26:06.250
[SPEAKER_01]: It's all infrastructure So infrastructure if anybody doesn't know is anything under the ground water sewer electric gas all utilities
26:07.210 --> 26:19.200
[SPEAKER_01]: So I managed that job and I did a really good job managing that job and then as time went by I got bigger jobs bigger jobs She just always gave me an opportunity Yeah, I was fucking best Fuck yeah, and he still is he's still amazing like that with people and he cares about people He's a good dude.
26:19.220 --> 26:19.860
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a good boss.
26:20.000 --> 26:33.971
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, um But at one point there was like there was a confusion and there was like I remember getting in getting into it with another guy and then being like you know I'm never gonna be
26:37.299 --> 26:53.743
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, you know, never gonna be more, you know, Mike's little friend Carla always treated me right, but like there was a point in time where I'm running a 10 million dollar job I'm making like 40, 50, 60 year-end year, whatever, and I'm like I'm standing next to people that are making a quarter million 200,000 I'm got no union book.
26:54.103 --> 26:54.823
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got nothing.
26:54.943 --> 27:01.765
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like I'm not saying that I deserved it right enough to rip But I was putting in a lot of work and I felt like I could make my bones somewhere else
27:03.064 --> 27:05.748
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was going into work, trying to talk to Paula, trying to talk to Paula.

28:41.755 --> 28:46.759
[SPEAKER_01]: And now I'm running for three or four million dollar jobs.
28:47.359 --> 28:47.799

59:13.677 --> 59:18.204
[SPEAKER_01]: I did everything I had to do with that and then fast forward now, I'm out three years.

59:37.525 --> 59:46.949
[SPEAKER_01]: I start hearing about peptides and I start hearing about a peptide called BPC Can I actually what is the peptide?
59:47.049 --> 59:49.370
[SPEAKER_01]: A peptide is an amino acid
59:50.737 --> 59:56.034
[SPEAKER_01]: that is it's it's it's basically something that you're putting in your body for signal receptor.
59:56.862 --> 01:00:00.564
[SPEAKER_01]: to continue or to start making what you already make in your body.
01:00:00.665 --> 01:00:00.905
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
01:00:00.965 --> 01:00:03.426
[SPEAKER_01]: So this is an amino acid that affects a receptor.
01:00:03.666 --> 01:00:05.948
[SPEAKER_01]: So if I, there's a million of them.
01:00:06.168 --> 01:00:06.368
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
01:00:06.388 --> 01:00:09.370
[SPEAKER_01]: So BPC, one person, there's all, it's all numbers and codes.
01:00:09.510 --> 01:00:09.770
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:00:09.830 --> 01:00:21.238
[SPEAKER_01]: So this is a, a amino acid that signals your body to, to eat away at scar tissue or to stop inflammation or there's several of them and it will.
01:00:24.285 --> 01:00:25.746
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody's gonna ask you oh, what's the side effect?
01:00:26.046 --> 01:00:29.127
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no side effect because there's no It's not a hormone.
01:00:29.147 --> 01:00:30.008
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not synthetic.
01:00:30.068 --> 01:00:32.589
[SPEAKER_01]: It's something that's already produced in your body and then Semino acid.
01:00:32.609 --> 01:00:34.630
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like it's like taking a protein.
01:00:34.870 --> 01:00:38.152
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so at the end of the day I start hearing about this.
01:00:38.652 --> 01:00:52.599
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like I've always messed around Huh, steroids and performance and enhancing drugs and I've all and I and the back of the day I abuse them so I've been on TRT which is testosterone placement therapy forever because at this point I can't produce my own task as I've
01:00:52.979 --> 01:00:56.100
[SPEAKER_01]: I've used it for so many years, so now I'm back on TRT.
01:00:56.160 --> 01:01:04.243
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm feeling good and I start taking this BPC 157 And I'm like oh my fucking on feels great four months post surgeon.
01:01:04.263 --> 01:01:16.507
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm dead lifting 400 pounds You're gonna mean I end up talking to my friend about it my friends died live I shut the fuck up You know what I might bro, and now he's on Researching it send to me videos.
01:01:16.567 --> 01:01:17.027
[SPEAKER_01]: He's on it.
01:01:17.467 --> 01:01:18.668
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm talking about it and he's like
01:01:19.810 --> 01:01:22.492
[SPEAKER_01]: You're like, where are you getting it or whatever?
01:01:22.792 --> 01:01:25.914
[SPEAKER_01]: Now I'm talking about personal experience, of course.
01:01:26.214 --> 01:01:29.937
[SPEAKER_01]: So now I start deep diving into other things.
01:01:30.437 --> 01:01:38.863
[SPEAKER_01]: So now back in the day, my mom worked at a med spa, and I remember her always experimented with NAD, which is the anti-aging agent.
01:01:39.323 --> 01:01:44.645
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it helps with brain fog, it helps with slowing down the aging process, a lot of women love it.
01:01:44.705 --> 01:01:45.665
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sick of that.
01:01:45.685 --> 01:01:47.025
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a woman's nightmare getting old.
01:01:47.186 --> 01:01:47.986
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:01:48.166 --> 01:01:51.667
[SPEAKER_01]: So she was doing NAD and then of course I'm sure you're out of Ozembex.
01:01:51.747 --> 01:01:52.407
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course.
01:01:52.447 --> 01:01:53.427
[SPEAKER_01]: The GLP ones.
01:01:53.948 --> 01:01:59.349
[SPEAKER_01]: These are a GLP one is a receptor you have in your body and it's your appetites.
01:01:59.369 --> 01:02:00.690
[SPEAKER_01]: Suppress it.
01:02:00.930 --> 01:02:01.170
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
01:02:01.190 --> 01:02:07.732
[SPEAKER_01]: So what these semi-glutide and these things do it's an engine that hits that receptor and tells you that you're not hungry anymore.
01:02:08.613 --> 01:02:24.084
[SPEAKER_01]: um you're not hungry but in turn that has the side effect of nausea of not eating now you're eating away at lean muscle tissue you lose a lot of weight all these women are on it a lot of people are on it they lose a ton of weight but it's
01:02:28.104 --> 01:02:28.645
[SPEAKER_01]: at fighting.
01:02:29.305 --> 01:02:31.287
[SPEAKER_01]: You're not supposed to lose 20 pounds in two weeks.
01:02:31.367 --> 01:02:31.608
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
01:02:31.648 --> 01:02:32.909
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not fucking good for your heart.
01:02:33.149 --> 01:02:34.270
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not good for your body.
01:02:34.370 --> 01:02:35.431
[SPEAKER_01]: You're cutting muscle.
01:02:35.471 --> 01:02:35.672
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:02:35.692 --> 01:02:36.773
[SPEAKER_01]: Even right, killing with fire.
01:02:36.853 --> 01:02:37.593
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:02:37.633 --> 01:02:40.897
[SPEAKER_01]: That's wild to go from 180 to 140 in two months.
01:02:40.917 --> 01:02:41.457
[SPEAKER_01]: That's ridiculous.
01:02:41.497 --> 01:02:42.778
[SPEAKER_01]: At that, you're losing muscle.
01:02:42.798 --> 01:02:44.420
[SPEAKER_01]: You're not losing all fat.
01:02:44.440 --> 01:02:45.081
[SPEAKER_00]: You're drying out.
01:02:45.101 --> 01:02:45.901
[SPEAKER_01]: You're drying out.
01:02:46.162 --> 01:02:46.862
[SPEAKER_01]: It's unhealthy.
01:02:46.882 --> 01:02:47.523
[SPEAKER_01]: You're tired.
01:02:47.543 --> 01:02:48.164
[SPEAKER_01]: You're fatigued.
01:02:48.684 --> 01:02:48.944
[SPEAKER_01]: Show.
01:02:49.845 --> 01:02:52.709
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, I start experimenting with semi-glutite.
01:02:52.729 --> 01:02:54.251
[SPEAKER_01]: I start experimenting with suzerpetite.
01:02:54.311 --> 01:02:57.575
[SPEAKER_01]: I start losing a fucking weight and I'm feeling like shit though.
01:02:57.615 --> 01:02:57.936
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:02:58.376 --> 01:02:59.858
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, I don't know.
01:03:00.018 --> 01:03:01.100
[SPEAKER_01]: Nah, bro, this ain't it.
01:03:01.200 --> 01:03:01.540
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:03:02.161 --> 01:03:07.488
[SPEAKER_01]: So then I start seeing this thing called Reddit Shrewtite and, um,
01:03:08.970 --> 01:03:26.052
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a GLP-3 agonist, which means it hits three receptors, your GLP-1, your GIP, and your glucone receptors, which in turn will suppress your appetite, hit the GIP, and then glucone to tell your body, basically, let's mobilize fast, fast, fast, fast, fast, fast,
01:03:29.957 --> 01:03:30.477
[SPEAKER_01]: Serve muscle.
01:03:30.857 --> 01:03:32.777
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, this is fucking too good to be true.
01:03:32.837 --> 01:03:33.318
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, what?
01:03:33.358 --> 01:03:40.339
[SPEAKER_01]: How are you gonna fucking give me a way So I don't keep me So come to find out.
01:03:40.539 --> 01:03:42.299
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not and it's not bullshit.
01:03:42.399 --> 01:03:55.121
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a personal Once again, I want to make that Yeah, it's a full version You know because a lot of these things it's a gray area because a lot of them are like the BPC-157 is completely FDA regulated It's approved by the FDA.
01:03:55.461 --> 01:03:59.062
[SPEAKER_01]: It's doctor-cell it the fucked up thing is with this industry though
01:04:00.717 --> 01:04:04.881
[SPEAKER_01]: The GOP ones are FDA-proofed, ready to shoot tight is not.
01:04:05.381 --> 01:04:07.803
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, these things are not helping people, they're hurting people.
01:04:07.843 --> 01:04:11.286
[SPEAKER_01]: But now think about big pharma they can prescribe to anti-nauthe.
01:04:11.706 --> 01:04:12.087
[SPEAKER_00]: Bingo.
01:04:12.187 --> 01:04:13.728
[SPEAKER_01]: Now you can start with health problems.
01:04:13.748 --> 01:04:13.928
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:04:13.948 --> 01:04:14.989
[SPEAKER_01]: You have to go back to the doctor.
01:04:16.315 --> 01:04:17.516
[SPEAKER_01]: Why am I nauseous or a time?
01:04:17.696 --> 01:04:19.357
[SPEAKER_01]: Why am I can't lift the fucking weight?
01:04:19.577 --> 01:04:20.858
[SPEAKER_01]: Why am I having trouble sleeping?
01:04:20.918 --> 01:04:24.159
[SPEAKER_01]: So now those things are after they approve, but Reddit is fine.
01:04:24.480 --> 01:04:31.423
[SPEAKER_01]: So there I start, it's a really dirty game and it's, and I, but I don't know if you saw recently because I know you're not really, I need to educate people.
01:04:31.523 --> 01:04:31.944
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course.
01:04:31.964 --> 01:04:32.624
[SPEAKER_00]: A hundred percent.
01:04:32.664 --> 01:04:33.645
[SPEAKER_01]: A lot of yourself with health.
01:04:33.685 --> 01:04:34.145
[SPEAKER_01]: Let us know.
01:04:34.245 --> 01:04:37.287
[SPEAKER_01]: And wellness, but like, our RFK just unbanned, 12.
01:04:38.307 --> 01:04:50.238
[SPEAKER_01]: peptides that are fucking amazing for you and the benefits like one is called GHKCU It's a skin and hair and collagen producing a peptide that helps them to your skin Roles make your skin elasticity better gives you more collagen.
01:04:50.498 --> 01:04:56.283
[SPEAKER_01]: That is a woman's fucking by for sure Right, so like it could it could eventually I mean not and a big skin
01:05:00.330 --> 01:05:18.240
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm surprised that they're regulated because you know like jubed with her and the bold talks companies that fill a companies do not want that to be the case Because it's so much cheaper It's a better alternative But so I start experiencing with this and me and my friend are like Why the fuck are we paying out the ask fuck what the fuck are we doing?
01:05:18.260 --> 01:05:25.604
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know if you start trying to figure out how to source it I start sourcing it and I'm like Mike and he's like yeah, I'm like Let's fucking do this.
01:05:25.624 --> 01:05:26.024
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's do it.
01:05:26.224 --> 01:05:26.924

[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, where do we start?
01:05:48.163 --> 01:05:49.283
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like trying to figure this out.
01:05:49.583 --> 01:05:51.704
[SPEAKER_01]: So we end up sourcing product.
01:05:52.024 --> 01:05:55.166
[SPEAKER_01]: We end up getting COA testing because COA is the agency.
01:05:55.206 --> 01:05:57.347
[SPEAKER_01]: The COA test is the test that you have to get.
01:05:58.527 --> 01:06:00.368
[SPEAKER_01]: And you give it to an agency.
01:06:01.008 --> 01:06:03.871
[SPEAKER_01]: and you want your stuff to be 99% or more pure.
01:06:04.031 --> 01:06:04.411
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course.
01:06:04.892 --> 01:06:06.233
[SPEAKER_01]: So we end up getting the testing.
01:06:06.273 --> 01:06:07.454
[SPEAKER_01]: We end up getting the batching.
01:06:07.714 --> 01:06:10.297
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, fuck this, let's blow this fucking thing up.
01:06:10.317 --> 01:06:10.737
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's go.
01:06:10.757 --> 01:06:14.320
[SPEAKER_01]: So now I see best peptides on expeptides.
01:06:14.360 --> 01:06:16.422
[SPEAKER_01]: I see all these companies that sell all this stuff.
01:06:16.642 --> 01:06:20.906
[SPEAKER_01]: Now my company, just to be clear, is a research company.
01:06:21.466 --> 01:06:24.089
[SPEAKER_01]: Everything I sell is for research purposes only.
01:06:25.216 --> 01:06:27.401
[SPEAKER_01]: I will give you the benefits of every product.
01:06:28.063 --> 01:06:32.493
[SPEAKER_01]: I will tell you what the benefits are of the product and what I sell and what I could provide.
01:06:33.174 --> 01:06:34.898
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's where my realm ends.
01:06:35.119 --> 01:06:35.580
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm giving you.
01:06:40.352 --> 01:06:41.592
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't give out a total of stitching.
01:06:41.632 --> 01:06:43.653
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't give out information like that.
01:06:43.673 --> 01:06:45.593
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not my business, what you do with the product.
01:06:45.613 --> 01:06:51.794
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a research company for research purposes, only now I can tell you what I do, but that's my business.
01:06:52.974 --> 01:07:08.077

[SPEAKER_01]: So it was like us three, had to stick together.
03:17.242 --> 03:22.163
[SPEAKER_01]: So we're thicker than these and growing up, what I, I always say the same thing to everybody.
03:23.424 --> 03:27.205

[SPEAKER_00]: Like, what shall I look on?
03:58.670 --> 04:01.852
[SPEAKER_00]: What did you learn about women living in a household like that?
04:02.552 --> 04:04.513
[SPEAKER_01]: I definitely learned how they work.
04:04.833 --> 04:05.073
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
04:05.613 --> 04:05.894
[SPEAKER_01]: You know?

[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
04:16.979 --> 04:19.780
[SPEAKER_01]: I could read a woman better than I could read a dude.
04:20.400 --> 04:36.443
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, but it's probably because growing up with them being around them all the time I'm seeing their patterns and you know what I mean knowing what pisses them off Yeah, that goes Irritable and Definitely learning the the do's and don't What I say and not to what not to say around them.
04:36.563 --> 04:45.345

[SPEAKER_01]: And so we like, we like, lost touch.
12:45.393 --> 12:51.257

[SPEAKER_01]: And we moved, and I moved in there.
13:15.054 --> 13:17.477
[SPEAKER_01]: And I remember my sister finished college and she moved in.
13:17.497 --> 13:20.299
[SPEAKER_01]: And we were always sitting around like, how the fuck are we going to get out of here?
13:22.361 --> 13:31.391
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and then when I was done with done with Pennsylvania College of Technology, I was like, I'm not fucking moving back and guess who came and saved the day.
13:31.451 --> 13:35.636
[SPEAKER_01]: Greg, Greg and Uncle Greg, you're like, you're like, come on, my aunt had just passed Greg's mother.
13:35.976 --> 13:38.599
[SPEAKER_01]: Where's the new fear I sent me as my aunt cash to my godmother?
13:38.860 --> 13:40.261
[SPEAKER_01]: And I fucking...
13:41.162 --> 13:42.143
[SPEAKER_01]: I moved in with that man.
13:42.163 --> 13:43.104
[SPEAKER_01]: It was like a bash of it.
13:43.364 --> 13:44.545
[SPEAKER_01]: Fuck, I don't have enough blinds.
13:44.565 --> 13:45.346
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, just us three.
13:45.446 --> 13:47.207
[SPEAKER_01]: And he like, Greg's dad is not.
13:47.247 --> 13:48.268
[SPEAKER_01]: He's heavy, drinker.
13:48.629 --> 13:49.930
[SPEAKER_01]: I'd be sitting there making him drinks.
13:49.950 --> 13:50.710
[SPEAKER_01]: We'd be party day.
13:50.750 --> 13:52.332
[SPEAKER_01]: Let me have my friends in the backyard.
13:52.352 --> 13:53.533
[SPEAKER_00]: Greg's dad's the best.
13:53.653 --> 13:55.875
[SPEAKER_01]: And Greg was that, yeah, obviously, Greg was like an older brother than me.
13:55.895 --> 13:57.797
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's exactly how that went down.
13:57.817 --> 13:59.798
[SPEAKER_01]: I think I was like 20, 21 at that point.
14:00.499 --> 14:03.021
[SPEAKER_00]: Talk to me about what does family mean to Mark?
14:03.341 --> 14:04.082
[SPEAKER_00]: What's family, yeah?
14:04.703 --> 14:05.023
[SPEAKER_00]: So,
14:06.035 --> 14:09.157
[SPEAKER_00]: You've got a lot of different perspectives on family.
14:09.218 --> 14:17.464
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, you have, you can technically say, you know, family abandonment and then you also have family structure as far as, as far as, you know, you guys are tight.
14:17.644 --> 14:17.944
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
14:18.004 --> 14:19.806
[SPEAKER_00]: So with the million side, come from.
14:19.846 --> 14:21.407
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's my mom.
14:21.527 --> 14:21.847
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
14:21.887 --> 14:22.708
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the million side.
14:22.728 --> 14:25.590
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's my mom and my dad's an only child.
14:25.610 --> 14:27.231
[SPEAKER_01]: So yes, I have no aunt's uncle's on that side.
14:27.292 --> 14:30.274
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, um, which probably explains why, you know, right.
14:30.294 --> 14:30.934
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll fuck that.
14:31.395 --> 14:32.355
[SPEAKER_01]: But um, shut up.
14:32.516 --> 14:33.917
[SPEAKER_01]: I am.
14:35.998 --> 14:41.959
[SPEAKER_01]: I say this to everybody, and if everybody, I've out for a bit, it doesn't happen, right?
14:42.079 --> 14:45.580
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody in the world passed away tomorrow, and Julia was alive, I'd be okay.
14:46.360 --> 14:47.661
[SPEAKER_01]: We're doing it.
14:47.681 --> 14:49.361
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I'd be fine.
14:49.481 --> 14:54.102
[SPEAKER_01]: That's the most important person until I marry my wife and have a shoulder with my wife.
14:54.362 --> 14:54.622
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
14:55.002 --> 14:57.923
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, hopefully that's the person I'm with now, hopefully that works out.
14:58.563 --> 14:59.323
[SPEAKER_01]: 100%.
14:59.503 --> 15:02.844
[SPEAKER_01]: That is number one to me because she saved my life.
15:03.944 --> 15:12.470
[SPEAKER_01]: every week, weekend, we out that woman, that girl, what everyone will call her, woman now, girl, then is the only reason I'm alive.
15:12.850 --> 15:16.812
[SPEAKER_01]: And even in my adulthood, when I went through, I went through a lot of shit.
15:16.893 --> 15:18.794
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sure you remember, I went away for a little while.
15:18.894 --> 15:19.374
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely.
15:19.554 --> 15:21.435
[SPEAKER_01]: If and then Greg.
15:22.336 --> 15:26.539
[SPEAKER_01]: Greg's number two, but if Greg was my brother, yeah, it'd be Greg, but Julia's my sister.
15:26.919 --> 15:27.720
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, never let me,
15:28.580 --> 15:35.244
[SPEAKER_01]: Never let me fall, you know, she would, I would remember I was young, every, for three years straight.
15:35.944 --> 15:40.326
[SPEAKER_01]: I was probably six, seven, eight, or seven, eight, ninth, whatever it was of my years of growing up.
15:41.067 --> 15:43.408
[SPEAKER_01]: My mom was just in a bad place, a really dark place.
15:43.588 --> 15:48.331
[SPEAKER_01]: You're not doing, you know, motherly things and being a tad on the abusive side.
15:49.111 --> 15:51.452
[SPEAKER_01]: And I remember Julia was so good at cheerleading.
15:51.612 --> 15:54.474
[SPEAKER_01]: When Nerusha was number one in the nation, she was the captain.
15:54.794 --> 15:56.515
[SPEAKER_01]: And she said to her coach, she was like,
15:58.519 --> 16:01.161
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't go to chair camp and be away from my brother for two weeks.
16:01.201 --> 16:07.285
[SPEAKER_01]: So I came to chair camp and I would sit in the, and I would sleep in the dorms with the, with the coach.
16:07.886 --> 16:08.326
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
16:08.386 --> 16:09.767
[SPEAKER_01]: She was like, I don't want my brother alone.
16:09.847 --> 16:10.888
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what's going to happen.
16:11.348 --> 16:15.531
[SPEAKER_01]: So Chris, he was the coach and she said, your brother's fucking company.
16:15.711 --> 16:19.334
[SPEAKER_01]: And you remember, you ever see a movie, a league of their own?
16:20.194 --> 16:21.295
[SPEAKER_01]: Just for women's baseball.
16:23.670 --> 16:44.754
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and she and it was her one of the player's sons and he brought her He brought him everywhere and he would and they would call him in his name was still well, and he would go You didn't lose and I would fuck all the girls and they would call me still Oh, they love me and then I grow up and you know you see them look you're like a grown-in like, yeah, I'm not fucking nine anymore You know, you see six great and more.
16:44.774 --> 16:50.255
[SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, that's the kind of relationship that I have with her and Like she's the beneficiary.
16:50.295 --> 16:52.116
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like my my pension
16:55.562 --> 17:14.789
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, obviously when I have children and things go but that's just a level of who she is to me Yeah, and then Greg and Greg like, you know, we went through I went through family shit and Greg was like fucking right there with me You know, Greg has never turned a blind eye to me But it's just a different relationship because Julia grew up in the house a hundred percent you know what I mean?

[SPEAKER_01]: And when I came back to Nurshell, I had a failed relationship.
18:56.775 --> 18:58.096
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I came back to Nurshell.
18:58.116 --> 19:00.217
[SPEAKER_01]: My grandmother's 91 years old just dementia.
19:00.397 --> 19:08.660
[SPEAKER_01]: So I came back to Nurshell and I moved back into the house that I grew up in at 34.
19:09.160 --> 19:15.803
[SPEAKER_01]: Because I'm 35 now, no, 34, 34, 34, 35, because it's been over a year, about to be 36.
19:16.803 --> 19:21.104
[SPEAKER_01]: And I started to get into this the darkest place I've ever
19:22.573 --> 19:27.615
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was trying to figure out what's going on and that, like, the off-the-chain partying.
19:27.936 --> 19:28.256
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
19:28.736 --> 19:30.817
[SPEAKER_01]: It's laying in bed crazy thoughts.

[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
19:31.777 --> 19:39.881
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and my sister was like, dude, you're in the fucking house that you grew up in with all this trauma.
19:39.921 --> 19:40.822
[SPEAKER_01]: It's in the walls.
19:40.942 --> 19:41.662
[SPEAKER_01]: I told you to do.
19:42.242 --> 19:42.803
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like,
19:43.443 --> 19:47.004
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm telling you thoughts that I never think thought that I would have.
19:47.144 --> 19:47.444
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
19:47.564 --> 19:53.947
[SPEAKER_01]: And if you know what I mean, you know, you know, I'm like, this isn't even me, you know, and I never struggle with mental health.
19:54.187 --> 19:56.007
[SPEAKER_01]: So then immediately I went into therapy.
19:56.187 --> 19:56.488
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
19:56.788 --> 19:59.649
[SPEAKER_01]: And I had like, you know, you know how it is.
19:59.709 --> 20:01.489
[SPEAKER_01]: And you know how Greg is, you know, your family is.
20:01.509 --> 20:01.989
[SPEAKER_01]: Definitely.
20:02.029 --> 20:02.750

20:02.950 --> 20:03.190
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
20:03.710 --> 20:08.731
[SPEAKER_01]: But sometimes, Greg's not like that, but that's the machismo thing, and I always thought that way.
20:08.771 --> 20:14.953
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was always like looking at these people in the internet, looking at people that talked, and I'm like, I'm not fucking doing that.
20:14.993 --> 20:15.733
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna work out.
20:15.913 --> 20:16.814
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna shut the fuck up.
20:16.914 --> 20:17.974
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a man.
20:18.134 --> 20:26.897
[SPEAKER_01]: I do that still, but, and then I was going a lot, and it helped, and then like, I got a little bit better, and then I stopped, and now I'm going back.
20:27.277 --> 20:28.017
[SPEAKER_01]: Now I thought I'm doing bad.
20:28.037 --> 20:29.117
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm doing better than I've ever been.
20:29.317 --> 20:30.718
[SPEAKER_01]: I have like the best woman in my life.
20:31.098 --> 20:31.378
[SPEAKER_01]: I have
20:32.347 --> 20:35.048
[SPEAKER_01]: all my family, I'm like in a great place, you know what I mean?
20:35.068 --> 20:42.010
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm starting a business, I'm in a really good place at my career, my job, and I'm like, you know what, fucking, I don't want to derail myself.
20:42.030 --> 20:45.971
[SPEAKER_01]: I made a little bit of a, I had a little bit of a setback, and I personally am not going to get into that.
20:45.991 --> 20:50.632
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course, which, but I'm still doing great, but then I was like, you know, fuck this, I got to go back and figure out why I did that.
20:51.099 --> 20:56.100
[SPEAKER_01]: And you have to dig into why you, like why you are, why you do, and it's not always your mom.
20:56.140 --> 20:58.280
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not always your dad, and it could be your friend group.
20:58.300 --> 21:04.962
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I realized a lot of the shit that I've dealt with, a lot of like, I went through a lot of shit with my friends, like they would treat me like shit when I was younger.
21:05.002 --> 21:05.442
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
21:05.542 --> 21:09.163
[SPEAKER_01]: Or I would do something bad to lash out, or there's a reason.
21:09.183 --> 21:11.443
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not like I said, it's not always your mom, and not always your dad's.
21:12.183 --> 21:19.525
[SPEAKER_01]: I figured the, to answer your question directly in an unhealthy way, I always party to escape it, and in a healthy way now,
21:20.305 --> 21:21.846
[SPEAKER_01]: I've like, stop drinking so much.
21:22.046 --> 21:22.906
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm on this kick.
21:22.926 --> 21:24.547
[SPEAKER_01]: We'll get into that, you know what I mean?
21:24.587 --> 21:28.569
[SPEAKER_01]: Because you don't want to be drinking, and I'm on the fitness thing, and I'm like, fuck it.
21:28.990 --> 21:34.372
[SPEAKER_01]: And like last night, we went out to dinner, and I had one drink, my boy's like, you know, the best, is one of my best friends.
21:34.392 --> 21:37.654
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like, I have a fucking drink, and I'm like, finished half of it, and I'm like, oh, I want to work out tomorrow.
21:37.674 --> 21:40.215
[SPEAKER_01]: I want to feel good, you know, and that's really it.
21:40.255 --> 21:41.096
[SPEAKER_01]: Now I'm going to go back.
21:41.176 --> 21:48.720
[SPEAKER_01]: I have an appointment, my first appointment is actually Tuesday after work, and I'm going to talk to this lady and dig deeper into what I got to do to be better.
21:49.081 --> 21:53.578
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't think anything happens by accident so I think at some point you had to go back.
21:53.860 --> 21:56.240
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, you know, you had to go back in the dress.
21:56.280 --> 21:57.901
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it's like two different movies.
21:57.941 --> 21:59.641
[SPEAKER_00]: I think I went ahead of story, Lion King.
21:59.661 --> 22:00.941
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know if you saw it.
22:00.961 --> 22:03.582
[SPEAKER_00]: When Simba ran off and Nala came to get him.
22:03.602 --> 22:04.502
[SPEAKER_00]: You had to come back home.
22:04.562 --> 22:08.102
[SPEAKER_00]: You can only run from, you know, to place that change your life for so long.
22:08.383 --> 22:08.763
[SPEAKER_00]: It's good for you.
22:08.783 --> 22:10.043
[SPEAKER_00]: You had to go back in the dress.
22:10.183 --> 22:11.923
[SPEAKER_00]: And then also, I think Godfather, too.
22:11.963 --> 22:14.484
[SPEAKER_00]: Michael was talking to, uh, paying tangibly.
22:14.504 --> 22:16.244
[SPEAKER_01]: So I father told me a lot of things in this room.
22:16.264 --> 22:20.345
[SPEAKER_00]: You'd be surprised like the mind is very, wow, that's dope.
22:21.145 --> 22:21.465
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
22:21.865 --> 22:22.145
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
22:22.925 --> 22:25.968
[SPEAKER_00]: When Mark gets out of college, what does Mark do?
22:26.288 --> 22:28.610
[SPEAKER_00]: First of all, what does Mark do then?
22:28.930 --> 22:31.052
[SPEAKER_00]: What's Mark's career path now?
22:31.092 --> 22:31.972
[SPEAKER_01]: What do you get at a school?
22:32.133 --> 22:34.194
[SPEAKER_01]: Instantly going to the fitness industry.
22:34.254 --> 22:35.936
[SPEAKER_01]: I start working at New York Sports Club.
22:36.236 --> 22:36.536
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
22:36.936 --> 22:38.678
[SPEAKER_01]: And Neuroshow in the Trump building.
22:38.738 --> 22:39.478
[SPEAKER_00]: I still work out there.
22:39.639 --> 22:40.559
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
22:40.820 --> 22:43.682
[SPEAKER_01]: Membership sales, met a couple cool people.
22:44.337 --> 22:46.578
[SPEAKER_01]: and then I moved on to equinox.
22:47.438 --> 22:51.700
[SPEAKER_01]: And I worked in equinox in the marinix for a while and I had my own apartment.
22:52.480 --> 23:00.863
[SPEAKER_01]: My first apartment, 22 years old and you know, fucking scratching, panes together to pay rent, my electric, getting shot off, you know, you're a young dog.
23:00.903 --> 23:01.543
[SPEAKER_01]: You're still out.
23:01.563 --> 23:02.824
[SPEAKER_01]: Me too, that's a good, that's it.
23:02.844 --> 23:04.464
[SPEAKER_01]: Some tries to get out, you know?
23:04.504 --> 23:05.485
[SPEAKER_01]: I have my grandmother.
23:05.745 --> 23:07.305
[SPEAKER_01]: Shout out my grandma, she always health me.
23:07.425 --> 23:08.626
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I'm short on rent.
23:08.666 --> 23:10.306
[SPEAKER_00]: They get us 500, don't fucking tell anyone.
23:10.466 --> 23:11.147
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
23:11.387 --> 23:12.327
[SPEAKER_01]: But, um, let's go.
23:12.487 --> 23:21.271
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I get out, I do that, and then my best friend growing up, moved from the Bronx, he moved into nourishel, and his father owned the construction business.
23:21.311 --> 23:25.352
[SPEAKER_01]: So I went to Pennsylvania College of Technology for construction management, you know what I mean?
23:25.372 --> 23:28.013
[SPEAKER_01]: So he was coming to economics, his father.
23:28.954 --> 23:31.635
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was always complaining to Mike, Mike, who's he.
23:31.675 --> 23:37.477
[SPEAKER_01]: I was always complaining to him, oh my God, this sucks, and he's like, listen, I'm actually just talking about that.
23:37.817 --> 23:39.618
[SPEAKER_01]: So I see him in economics when he's there, it comes to me.
23:39.838 --> 23:41.639
[SPEAKER_01]: So I go down to the Bronx, it's offices in the Bronx.
23:42.327 --> 23:46.468
[SPEAKER_01]: And he's like, listen, I made $90,000 at Equinox one year.
23:46.488 --> 23:49.208
[SPEAKER_01]: And at 20 years old, you know, that's fucking money.
23:49.488 --> 23:51.309
[SPEAKER_01]: I was who would sell in membership.
23:51.669 --> 24:09.473
[SPEAKER_01]: And yeah, so I was like, 22 years old, I was chilling, that was after I started, you know, and I did, like, I did really about 87,000, whatever it was, you know, and Mike's father looks at me and he was like, listen, I'm gonna pay you for a year to shut up and learn and take notes, but I'm giving you $45,000.
24:12.320 --> 24:14.240
[SPEAKER_01]: Dude, you're giving me fucking, I'm 20 years old.
24:14.801 --> 24:16.461
[SPEAKER_01]: But I'm like, you're giving me half the money I'm making.
24:16.481 --> 24:18.782
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm like thinking I got this big dick, like, oh, yeah.
24:18.982 --> 24:21.702
[SPEAKER_01]: But Mike's like, oh, dude, I'm telling you something.
24:21.722 --> 24:24.683
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, my dad drives a Ferrari and a fucking has a family.
24:24.723 --> 24:26.323
[SPEAKER_01]: And like, owns a huge construction company.
24:26.344 --> 24:27.624
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, you'd be stupid.
24:27.704 --> 24:29.784
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a step back to take 10 steps forward.
24:29.864 --> 24:30.324
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
24:30.425 --> 24:31.145
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not the mic.
24:31.285 --> 24:31.785
[SPEAKER_01]: So I do it.
24:32.865 --> 24:34.426
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how that's how that ended.
24:34.446 --> 24:36.086
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I did it and then I'm still in it.
24:36.346 --> 24:38.447
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, to this day, I'm still doing construction.
24:38.687 --> 24:40.047
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I started learning.
24:41.420 --> 24:48.226
[SPEAKER_01]: I was a superintendent, which is just a supervisor, but I was taking notes from this old, this old fucking Spanish guy who was great in his job.
24:48.706 --> 24:50.448
[SPEAKER_01]: He taught me everything, Mike, taught me a lot of stuff.
24:50.468 --> 24:54.491
[SPEAKER_01]: I was on a big job with Mike, and they all treated me like a little brother.
24:54.951 --> 25:00.436
[SPEAKER_01]: The cozy family from the minute I started working, and they've always treated my family even before I worked there.
25:00.616 --> 25:06.701
[SPEAKER_01]: But Mike, his brother Dominic, his sister Christina, his father called all the boss up until the day I left there, treated me like family.
25:06.721 --> 25:08.262
[SPEAKER_01]: Like I see Dominic two months ago.
25:08.382 --> 25:10.104
[SPEAKER_01]: Right, right, right, I'm having a drink hanging out.
25:11.476 --> 25:16.337
[SPEAKER_01]: I left ultimately, but they always did the right thing by me.
25:16.357 --> 25:18.898
[SPEAKER_00]: What are some of the responsibilities of a superintendent?
25:19.338 --> 25:21.779
[SPEAKER_00]: For you, we're sure you had the advantage.
25:21.899 --> 25:27.801
[SPEAKER_01]: So, at that point, I was managing small, like, $5 to $10 million jobs.
25:28.081 --> 25:30.202
[SPEAKER_01]: And he was starving, I was leaving.
25:30.282 --> 25:32.162
[SPEAKER_01]: In the infrastructure industry, that's more.
25:33.443 --> 25:35.543
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I'm a little small to the other end.
25:35.623 --> 25:37.364
[SPEAKER_01]: Now, it's an upwards of $400 million.
25:37.404 --> 25:37.604
[SPEAKER_01]: But...
25:38.953 --> 25:42.575
[SPEAKER_01]: Back then it was like he put me on this he gave me a really good opportunity to put me on this park.
25:42.695 --> 25:47.498
[SPEAKER_01]: It was a park job I'm I'm up in on Amsterdam and and Autobahn Avenue in the heights.
25:47.718 --> 25:58.925
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, and by Yeshua University They date 187 street was in between Autobahn and Amsterdam and they they demoed it and made a park instead of a cross street Yeah, and he put me on it.
25:58.945 --> 26:00.066
[SPEAKER_01]: There's water sewer.
26:00.166 --> 26:06.250
[SPEAKER_01]: It's all infrastructure So infrastructure if anybody doesn't know is anything under the ground water sewer electric gas all utilities
26:07.210 --> 26:19.200
[SPEAKER_01]: So I managed that job and I did a really good job managing that job and then as time went by I got bigger jobs bigger jobs She just always gave me an opportunity Yeah, I was fucking best Fuck yeah, and he still is he's still amazing like that with people and he cares about people He's a good dude.
26:19.220 --> 26:19.860
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a good boss.
26:20.000 --> 26:33.971
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, um But at one point there was like there was a confusion and there was like I remember getting in getting into it with another guy and then being like you know I'm never gonna be
26:37.299 --> 26:53.743
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay, you know, never gonna be more, you know, Mike's little friend Carla always treated me right, but like there was a point in time where I'm running a 10 million dollar job I'm making like 40, 50, 60 year-end year, whatever, and I'm like I'm standing next to people that are making a quarter million 200,000 I'm got no union book.
26:54.103 --> 26:54.823
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got nothing.
26:54.943 --> 27:01.765
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like I'm not saying that I deserved it right enough to rip But I was putting in a lot of work and I felt like I could make my bones somewhere else
27:03.064 --> 27:05.748
[SPEAKER_01]: So I was going into work, trying to talk to Paula, trying to talk to Paula.
27:05.768 --> 27:08.633
[SPEAKER_01]: He wouldn't talk to me and I was like, I'm going, I've got to go.
27:08.673 --> 27:12.239
[SPEAKER_01]: And that was the first year I've made six figures in my entire life.
27:12.379 --> 27:15.283
[SPEAKER_00]: Best decision I've ever made for myself.
27:15.624 --> 27:16.265
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, for you.
27:17.945 --> 27:27.532
[SPEAKER_01]: Mike and Garlow still fucking own $100 million a year business, but that relationship obviously is of course Which sucks because I love them.
27:27.572 --> 27:33.457
[SPEAKER_01]: I was in his wedding one year at his batch of party and then next year I'm working somewhere else Don't even look at me
27:33.753 --> 27:37.495
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm noticing that what business business and friendship begins very, very tricky.
27:37.515 --> 27:38.756
[SPEAKER_00]: His sucks that it's just like that.
27:38.776 --> 27:39.516
[SPEAKER_00]: It shouldn't be like that.
27:39.597 --> 27:40.377
[SPEAKER_00]: Cause I love you.
27:40.477 --> 27:42.238
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't want to just benefit off you.
27:42.398 --> 27:44.139
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to benefit off yourself as well.
27:44.279 --> 27:48.142
[SPEAKER_00]: Even if, you know, you're my best, you know, super intended on my staff, too.
27:48.382 --> 27:49.262
[SPEAKER_00]: You gotta go flourish.
27:49.462 --> 27:57.387
[SPEAKER_01]: Listen, at the end of the day, like I said, those fucking kids and not family, he's built a legacy and I respect it.
27:57.907 --> 27:58.628
[SPEAKER_01]: Mike Tham.
27:59.128 --> 27:59.608
[SPEAKER_01]: You're a good.
27:59.788 --> 28:00.669
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm the little guy.
28:00.869 --> 28:19.637
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you should be like you'll mark you come from nothing Go do what you're gonna do if you're gonna make 120 at mass fits, which is where I went Go go, you know what I mean because I because maybe call it and feel feel like I was worth it Fine, maybe this guy does let me take my bone somewhere else I wish you wouldn't have went messy, but that's life and like at the end of the day now I look back and I'm like I see Dominic
28:19.937 --> 28:21.899
[SPEAKER_01]: And I see Michael and I give him a hug, I really love you guys.
28:21.919 --> 28:22.499
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
28:22.519 --> 28:23.940
[SPEAKER_01]: Michael's mom passed years back.
28:24.020 --> 28:28.144
[SPEAKER_01]: I went, I didn't see him for like a year and a half two years, I walked into the funeral.
28:28.244 --> 28:29.024
[SPEAKER_01]: You know what I mean?
28:29.445 --> 28:30.666
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm not, I'm not that kind of guy.
28:30.726 --> 28:34.729
[SPEAKER_01]: I might have done some dumb shit in my day, but they took care of me and to this day, I see him.
28:35.029 --> 28:36.771
[SPEAKER_01]: I always stand Kim, you know what I mean?
28:36.811 --> 28:39.152
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a great guy, and that's how it goes.
28:39.172 --> 28:41.715
[SPEAKER_01]: And then I went for a couple of different companies to wear a mat now.
28:41.755 --> 28:46.759
[SPEAKER_01]: And now I'm running for three or four million dollar jobs.
28:47.359 --> 28:47.799
[SPEAKER_00]: Stressful.
28:49.418 --> 28:50.459
[SPEAKER_01]: Right now we're slow.
28:50.619 --> 28:58.008
[SPEAKER_01]: I have $500 million in backlogs work, but when there's work going on, like I was on this 400 million dollar job in downtown Manhattan, I think I was telling you about it.
28:58.028 --> 28:59.971
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, bro, it doesn't stop.
29:00.211 --> 29:01.292
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it does not stop.
29:01.352 --> 29:03.275
[SPEAKER_01]: And being the guy in charge sucks.
29:04.179 --> 29:10.701
[SPEAKER_01]: It's this awesome feeling of that responsibility, like I thrive off of having the responsibility and being the God that everyone needs.
29:11.001 --> 29:15.622
[SPEAKER_01]: But then at one point you're like, yo, you can't figure this out because I have thirty five things I do.
29:16.102 --> 29:17.942
[SPEAKER_01]: I need a breather to figure two things out.
29:17.962 --> 29:20.823
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't hold your hand with X, Y, Z, and managing men.
29:21.383 --> 29:22.863
[SPEAKER_01]: Bro, it could be worse to managing women.
29:23.043 --> 29:23.424
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree.
29:23.464 --> 29:24.604
[SPEAKER_00]: Yo, I fucking agree.
29:24.644 --> 29:29.245
[SPEAKER_01]: Yo, it's not some sometimes, you know.
29:31.139 --> 29:37.881
[SPEAKER_01]: I've got, I've come to this cross roll lately where it's like, I'm so fucking sick of making someone else a million here, bro.
29:38.061 --> 29:38.841
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm so sick of it.
29:38.901 --> 29:39.641
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how we get here.
29:39.881 --> 29:40.781
[SPEAKER_01]: That's how we get here.
29:40.821 --> 29:40.961
[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
29:41.261 --> 29:42.422
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm so fucking sick.
29:42.602 --> 29:43.842
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm never going to leave my job.
29:43.982 --> 29:45.362
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, I might leave my job.
29:45.402 --> 29:46.383
[SPEAKER_01]: This should cook kicks off.
29:46.503 --> 29:46.683
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
29:46.743 --> 29:47.383
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't leave my job.
29:47.403 --> 29:48.263
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't leave my job.

[SPEAKER_01]: You could have the top G. You could like, like right now, I driver the rainbow, cool, fine, but like you're not going to have the the upper echelon of life.
58:36.348 --> 58:37.690
[SPEAKER_00]: You know, and not in New York.
58:37.850 --> 58:38.551
[SPEAKER_00]: No, not in New York.

[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, like even down south, like whatever.
58:40.494 --> 58:42.496
[SPEAKER_01]: So at the end of the day, like, I'm like, I don't want to do that.
58:43.217 --> 58:45.360
[SPEAKER_01]: So for some reason, I'm like, y'all, I'm...
58:46.341 --> 58:48.143
[SPEAKER_01]: Lower middle class from my chest there.
58:48.464 --> 58:49.345
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm a white kid.
58:49.585 --> 59:07.164
[SPEAKER_01]: I come from the gutter I built everything on my own whether these are mistakes, whether this is 60% or what it was 100% my school hard knocks my so hard knocks enterprise LLC was my LLC from my real estate company and I come out of prison and somehow lose sight of that.
59:07.464 --> 59:07.785
[SPEAKER_01]: I put
59:09.170 --> 59:13.637
[SPEAKER_01]: I put a little bit of time in a little bit of effort into it, but then I stopped and I'm built the LLC.
59:13.677 --> 59:18.204
[SPEAKER_01]: I did everything I had to do with that and then fast forward now, I'm out three years.
59:18.444 --> 59:21.088
[SPEAKER_01]: So fast forward now, I get a new job, I got a really good job now.
59:23.058 --> 59:37.465
[SPEAKER_01]: Me and my best friend are her I her my I hurt my fucking I tear my bicep splaring back go figure yeah Fuck the man And I gained I gained some weight and then I get back into the gym I'm feeling good.
59:37.525 --> 59:46.949
[SPEAKER_01]: I start hearing about peptides and I start hearing about a peptide called BPC Can I actually what is the peptide?
59:47.049 --> 59:49.370
[SPEAKER_01]: A peptide is an amino acid
59:50.737 --> 59:56.034
[SPEAKER_01]: that is it's it's it's basically something that you're putting in your body for signal receptor.
59:56.862 --> 01:00:00.564
[SPEAKER_01]: to continue or to start making what you already make in your body.
01:00:00.665 --> 01:00:00.905
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
01:00:00.965 --> 01:00:03.426
[SPEAKER_01]: So this is an amino acid that affects a receptor.
01:00:03.666 --> 01:00:05.948
[SPEAKER_01]: So if I, there's a million of them.
01:00:06.168 --> 01:00:06.368
[SPEAKER_01]: Right.
01:00:06.388 --> 01:00:09.370
[SPEAKER_01]: So BPC, one person, there's all, it's all numbers and codes.
01:00:09.510 --> 01:00:09.770
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:00:09.830 --> 01:00:21.238
[SPEAKER_01]: So this is a, a amino acid that signals your body to, to eat away at scar tissue or to stop inflammation or there's several of them and it will.
01:00:24.285 --> 01:00:25.746
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody's gonna ask you oh, what's the side effect?
01:00:26.046 --> 01:00:29.127
[SPEAKER_01]: There's no side effect because there's no It's not a hormone.
01:00:29.147 --> 01:00:30.008
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not synthetic.
01:00:30.068 --> 01:00:32.589
[SPEAKER_01]: It's something that's already produced in your body and then Semino acid.
01:00:32.609 --> 01:00:34.630
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like it's like taking a protein.
01:00:34.870 --> 01:00:38.152
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, so at the end of the day I start hearing about this.
01:00:38.652 --> 01:00:52.599
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like I've always messed around Huh, steroids and performance and enhancing drugs and I've all and I and the back of the day I abuse them so I've been on TRT which is testosterone placement therapy forever because at this point I can't produce my own task as I've
01:00:52.979 --> 01:00:56.100
[SPEAKER_01]: I've used it for so many years, so now I'm back on TRT.
01:00:56.160 --> 01:01:04.243
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm feeling good and I start taking this BPC 157 And I'm like oh my fucking on feels great four months post surgeon.
01:01:04.263 --> 01:01:16.507
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm dead lifting 400 pounds You're gonna mean I end up talking to my friend about it my friends died live I shut the fuck up You know what I might bro, and now he's on Researching it send to me videos.
01:01:16.567 --> 01:01:17.027
[SPEAKER_01]: He's on it.
01:01:17.467 --> 01:01:18.668
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm talking about it and he's like
01:01:19.810 --> 01:01:22.492
[SPEAKER_01]: You're like, where are you getting it or whatever?
01:01:22.792 --> 01:01:25.914
[SPEAKER_01]: Now I'm talking about personal experience, of course.
01:01:26.214 --> 01:01:29.937
[SPEAKER_01]: So now I start deep diving into other things.
01:01:30.437 --> 01:01:38.863
[SPEAKER_01]: So now back in the day, my mom worked at a med spa, and I remember her always experimented with NAD, which is the anti-aging agent.
01:01:39.323 --> 01:01:44.645
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it helps with brain fog, it helps with slowing down the aging process, a lot of women love it.
01:01:44.705 --> 01:01:45.665
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm sick of that.
01:01:45.685 --> 01:01:47.025
[SPEAKER_01]: That's a woman's nightmare getting old.
01:01:47.186 --> 01:01:47.986
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:01:48.166 --> 01:01:51.667
[SPEAKER_01]: So she was doing NAD and then of course I'm sure you're out of Ozembex.
01:01:51.747 --> 01:01:52.407
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course.
01:01:52.447 --> 01:01:53.427
[SPEAKER_01]: The GLP ones.
01:01:53.948 --> 01:01:59.349
[SPEAKER_01]: These are a GLP one is a receptor you have in your body and it's your appetites.
01:01:59.369 --> 01:02:00.690
[SPEAKER_01]: Suppress it.
01:02:00.930 --> 01:02:01.170
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
01:02:01.190 --> 01:02:07.732
[SPEAKER_01]: So what these semi-glutide and these things do it's an engine that hits that receptor and tells you that you're not hungry anymore.
01:02:08.613 --> 01:02:24.084
[SPEAKER_01]: um you're not hungry but in turn that has the side effect of nausea of not eating now you're eating away at lean muscle tissue you lose a lot of weight all these women are on it a lot of people are on it they lose a ton of weight but it's
01:02:28.104 --> 01:02:28.645
[SPEAKER_01]: at fighting.
01:02:29.305 --> 01:02:31.287
[SPEAKER_01]: You're not supposed to lose 20 pounds in two weeks.
01:02:31.367 --> 01:02:31.608
[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
01:02:31.648 --> 01:02:32.909
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not fucking good for your heart.
01:02:33.149 --> 01:02:34.270
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not good for your body.
01:02:34.370 --> 01:02:35.431
[SPEAKER_01]: You're cutting muscle.
01:02:35.471 --> 01:02:35.672
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:02:35.692 --> 01:02:36.773
[SPEAKER_01]: Even right, killing with fire.
01:02:36.853 --> 01:02:37.593
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:02:37.633 --> 01:02:40.897
[SPEAKER_01]: That's wild to go from 180 to 140 in two months.
01:02:40.917 --> 01:02:41.457
[SPEAKER_01]: That's ridiculous.
01:02:41.497 --> 01:02:42.778
[SPEAKER_01]: At that, you're losing muscle.
01:02:42.798 --> 01:02:44.420
[SPEAKER_01]: You're not losing all fat.
01:02:44.440 --> 01:02:45.081
[SPEAKER_00]: You're drying out.
01:02:45.101 --> 01:02:45.901
[SPEAKER_01]: You're drying out.
01:02:46.162 --> 01:02:46.862
[SPEAKER_01]: It's unhealthy.
01:02:46.882 --> 01:02:47.523
[SPEAKER_01]: You're tired.
01:02:47.543 --> 01:02:48.164
[SPEAKER_01]: You're fatigued.
01:02:48.684 --> 01:02:48.944
[SPEAKER_01]: Show.
01:02:49.845 --> 01:02:52.709
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, I start experimenting with semi-glutite.
01:02:52.729 --> 01:02:54.251
[SPEAKER_01]: I start experimenting with suzerpetite.
01:02:54.311 --> 01:02:57.575
[SPEAKER_01]: I start losing a fucking weight and I'm feeling like shit though.
01:02:57.615 --> 01:02:57.936
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:02:58.376 --> 01:02:59.858
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, I don't know.
01:03:00.018 --> 01:03:01.100
[SPEAKER_01]: Nah, bro, this ain't it.
01:03:01.200 --> 01:03:01.540
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
01:03:02.161 --> 01:03:07.488
[SPEAKER_01]: So then I start seeing this thing called Reddit Shrewtite and, um,
01:03:08.970 --> 01:03:26.052
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a GLP-3 agonist, which means it hits three receptors, your GLP-1, your GIP, and your glucone receptors, which in turn will suppress your appetite, hit the GIP, and then glucone to tell your body, basically, let's mobilize fast, fast, fast, fast, fast, fast,
01:03:29.957 --> 01:03:30.477
[SPEAKER_01]: Serve muscle.
01:03:30.857 --> 01:03:32.777
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, this is fucking too good to be true.
01:03:32.837 --> 01:03:33.318
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, what?
01:03:33.358 --> 01:03:40.339
[SPEAKER_01]: How are you gonna fucking give me a way So I don't keep me So come to find out.
01:03:40.539 --> 01:03:42.299
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not and it's not bullshit.
01:03:42.399 --> 01:03:55.121
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a personal Once again, I want to make that Yeah, it's a full version You know because a lot of these things it's a gray area because a lot of them are like the BPC-157 is completely FDA regulated It's approved by the FDA.
01:03:55.461 --> 01:03:59.062
[SPEAKER_01]: It's doctor-cell it the fucked up thing is with this industry though
01:04:00.717 --> 01:04:04.881
[SPEAKER_01]: The GOP ones are FDA-proofed, ready to shoot tight is not.
01:04:05.381 --> 01:04:07.803
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's like, these things are not helping people, they're hurting people.
01:04:07.843 --> 01:04:11.286
[SPEAKER_01]: But now think about big pharma they can prescribe to anti-nauthe.
01:04:11.706 --> 01:04:12.087
[SPEAKER_00]: Bingo.
01:04:12.187 --> 01:04:13.728
[SPEAKER_01]: Now you can start with health problems.
01:04:13.748 --> 01:04:13.928
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
01:04:13.948 --> 01:04:14.989
[SPEAKER_01]: You have to go back to the doctor.
01:04:16.315 --> 01:04:17.516
[SPEAKER_01]: Why am I nauseous or a time?
01:04:17.696 --> 01:04:19.357
[SPEAKER_01]: Why am I can't lift the fucking weight?
01:04:19.577 --> 01:04:20.858
[SPEAKER_01]: Why am I having trouble sleeping?
01:04:20.918 --> 01:04:24.159
[SPEAKER_01]: So now those things are after they approve, but Reddit is fine.
01:04:24.480 --> 01:04:31.423
[SPEAKER_01]: So there I start, it's a really dirty game and it's, and I, but I don't know if you saw recently because I know you're not really, I need to educate people.
01:04:31.523 --> 01:04:31.944
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course.
01:04:31.964 --> 01:04:32.624
[SPEAKER_00]: A hundred percent.
01:04:32.664 --> 01:04:33.645
[SPEAKER_01]: A lot of yourself with health.
01:04:33.685 --> 01:04:34.145
[SPEAKER_01]: Let us know.
01:04:34.245 --> 01:04:37.287
[SPEAKER_01]: And wellness, but like, our RFK just unbanned, 12.
01:04:38.307 --> 01:04:50.238
[SPEAKER_01]: peptides that are fucking amazing for you and the benefits like one is called GHKCU It's a skin and hair and collagen producing a peptide that helps them to your skin Roles make your skin elasticity better gives you more collagen.
01:04:50.498 --> 01:04:56.283
[SPEAKER_01]: That is a woman's fucking by for sure Right, so like it could it could eventually I mean not and a big skin
01:05:00.330 --> 01:05:18.240
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm surprised that they're regulated because you know like jubed with her and the bold talks companies that fill a companies do not want that to be the case Because it's so much cheaper It's a better alternative But so I start experiencing with this and me and my friend are like Why the fuck are we paying out the ask fuck what the fuck are we doing?
01:05:18.260 --> 01:05:25.604
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you know if you start trying to figure out how to source it I start sourcing it and I'm like Mike and he's like yeah, I'm like Let's fucking do this.
01:05:25.624 --> 01:05:26.024
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's do it.
01:05:26.224 --> 01:05:26.924
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's fucking do this.
01:05:27.265 --> 01:05:27.985
[SPEAKER_01]: What is it gonna cost?
01:05:34.137 --> 01:05:35.658
[SPEAKER_01]: So he's like, come on, what are we gonna do?
01:05:35.698 --> 01:05:37.258
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, I don't fucking know.
01:05:37.318 --> 01:05:39.579
[SPEAKER_01]: Let's just start calling people on this.
01:05:39.859 --> 01:05:40.620
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm on the phone with this one.
01:05:40.860 --> 01:05:41.820
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm on the phone my friend here.
01:05:41.860 --> 01:05:43.281
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm talking to guys in Chicago.
01:05:43.301 --> 01:05:44.861
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm talking to guys in Texas.
01:05:45.122 --> 01:05:46.262
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm talking to people in China.
01:05:46.282 --> 01:05:47.262
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm talking to people in Europe.
01:05:47.302 --> 01:05:48.143
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, where do we start?
01:05:48.163 --> 01:05:49.283
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like trying to figure this out.
01:05:49.583 --> 01:05:51.704
[SPEAKER_01]: So we end up sourcing product.
01:05:52.024 --> 01:05:55.166
[SPEAKER_01]: We end up getting COA testing because COA is the agency.
01:05:55.206 --> 01:05:57.347
[SPEAKER_01]: The COA test is the test that you have to get.
01:05:58.527 --> 01:06:00.368
[SPEAKER_01]: And you give it to an agency.
01:06:01.008 --> 01:06:03.871
[SPEAKER_01]: and you want your stuff to be 99% or more pure.
01:06:04.031 --> 01:06:04.411
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course.
01:06:04.892 --> 01:06:06.233
[SPEAKER_01]: So we end up getting the testing.
01:06:06.273 --> 01:06:07.454
[SPEAKER_01]: We end up getting the batching.
01:06:07.714 --> 01:06:10.297
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm like, fuck this, let's blow this fucking thing up.
01:06:10.317 --> 01:06:10.737
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's go.
01:06:10.757 --> 01:06:14.320
[SPEAKER_01]: So now I see best peptides on expeptides.
01:06:14.360 --> 01:06:16.422
[SPEAKER_01]: I see all these companies that sell all this stuff.
01:06:16.642 --> 01:06:20.906
[SPEAKER_01]: Now my company, just to be clear, is a research company.
01:06:21.466 --> 01:06:24.089
[SPEAKER_01]: Everything I sell is for research purposes only.
01:06:25.216 --> 01:06:27.401
[SPEAKER_01]: I will give you the benefits of every product.
01:06:28.063 --> 01:06:32.493
[SPEAKER_01]: I will tell you what the benefits are of the product and what I sell and what I could provide.
01:06:33.174 --> 01:06:34.898
[SPEAKER_01]: And that's where my realm ends.
01:06:35.119 --> 01:06:35.580
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm giving you.
01:06:40.352 --> 01:06:41.592
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't give out a total of stitching.
01:06:41.632 --> 01:06:43.653
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't give out information like that.
01:06:43.673 --> 01:06:45.593
[SPEAKER_01]: It's not my business, what you do with the product.
01:06:45.613 --> 01:06:51.794
[SPEAKER_01]: This is a research company for research purposes, only now I can tell you what I do, but that's my business.
01:06:52.974 --> 01:07:08.077
[SPEAKER_01]: But at the end of the day, so like I said, I source a product, I buy some merch, I throw up the Instagram, and the overwhelming amount of support and things that I've witnessed in the past week and a half, we sold out our entire inventory.
01:07:11.203 --> 01:07:12.104
[SPEAKER_01]: We crushed it this week.
01:07:12.424 --> 01:07:13.385
[SPEAKER_01]: Our website is launching.
01:07:13.425 --> 01:07:14.306
[SPEAKER_01]: Our Instagram is up.

[SPEAKER_01]: We're doing an Instagram video with some influencers, women and men, some IFBB pros.
01:07:21.031 --> 01:07:34.903
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm just, listen, bro, like, if I feel like one thing I'd heard recently and it was like a hit me and it was like Stop thinking about making money Get into a business where you'd help people.
01:07:35.363 --> 01:07:35.704
[SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm.

01:11:49.295 --> 01:12:10.628
