When the Jiu-Jitsu Galaxy Turns Dark: Scandals, Steroids & Sith Lords (Episode 79)

WEBVTT

00:00:09.612 --> 00:00:14.572
Welcome back to Fighters Drinking Coffee. We are your hosts with 40 years of

00:00:14.572 --> 00:00:17.712
combined grappling experience that won't really matter on this episode.

00:00:18.212 --> 00:00:22.482
Yeah, Scott Dance. Michael Sutherland. And, well, today we're not going to be

00:00:22.482 --> 00:00:25.652
giving you anything to make your jiu-jitsu easier, but hopefully it will make

00:00:25.652 --> 00:00:26.971
your jiu-jitsu funnier.

00:00:28.649 --> 00:00:34.862
So I've recently been questioning our decisions about who we've assigned our

00:00:34.862 --> 00:00:36.032
Star Wars characters to.

00:00:36.532 --> 00:00:41.752
Uh good even though it's i guess it really hasn't been that long right like

00:00:41.752 --> 00:00:47.631
it's been less than it hasn't even been six months yeah um since we've,

00:00:48.305 --> 00:00:55.137
it might have been six months since we came up with our star wars concept uh and,

00:00:56.229 --> 00:01:05.212
yeah like one thing i saw so disclaimer here This is based off of maybe a combined

00:01:05.212 --> 00:01:09.552
five minutes of information that I've seen.

00:01:11.412 --> 00:01:15.552
Across multiple little clips and snippets from other media.

00:01:16.072 --> 00:01:19.552
You're like Charlie in the mailroom trying to put you together.

00:01:19.552 --> 00:01:24.289
I'm just trying to find out who Pepe Sylvia is. Pepe Sylvia.

00:01:25.670 --> 00:01:31.220
And, yeah, so, like, I'm going to have this stem from the fact we,

00:01:32.003 --> 00:01:34.155
the figurehead of all of our Star Wars theory.

00:01:34.155 --> 00:01:38.705
Second table first, Michael. The figurehead of our Star Wars theory was that

00:01:38.705 --> 00:01:44.502
Palpatine was, like, engineering the fall of the Republic.

00:01:45.390 --> 00:01:54.254
And so Donahue was Palpatine, and he was, like, engineering all of the beef between his multiple.

00:01:55.635 --> 00:01:58.285
Sith apprentices and his future

00:01:58.285 --> 00:02:01.045
apprentices and the people he's all trying to turn to the dark side.

00:02:01.045 --> 00:02:05.715
I didn't know, like, you know, Gordon was, I guess, did we assign him Darth

00:02:05.715 --> 00:02:07.639
Vader? Or maybe we assigned him.

00:02:08.939 --> 00:02:12.365
I don't think he got a full designation. We assigned him as a Sith apprentice.

00:02:12.365 --> 00:02:14.576
Fair enough. Same thing with. You assigned him as a Sith apprentice. Yes.

00:02:15.655 --> 00:02:19.377
But so. I've been reacting to all of this. I'll back you up on it, but.

00:02:19.995 --> 00:02:24.439
I would, I want to try to come to a new conclusion by the end of the episode.

00:02:24.636 --> 00:02:31.015
But recently I've seen like Donner seems to be like more friendly with like Craig.

00:02:31.015 --> 00:02:35.875
In, I see, I saw some, like, it seemed like recent footage of him training with,

00:02:35.875 --> 00:02:40.304
like, the Simple Man guys, and, like, Formerly B-Team.

00:02:40.449 --> 00:02:44.895
Formerly B-Team, yeah. So, like, I saw him, like, training at their location.

00:02:44.895 --> 00:02:47.665
Because I think we called it B-Team back when we talked about it originally.

00:02:47.665 --> 00:02:50.718
Yeah, Simple Man was not official yet. So much has happened.

00:02:50.851 --> 00:02:53.522
So much has happened, in such a short span of time.

00:02:54.659 --> 00:02:59.235
We had, so, like, that's coming into question. Like, maybe he isn't the bad

00:02:59.235 --> 00:03:02.845
guy maybe he's not the like orchestrator and maybe it's a little bit different

00:03:02.845 --> 00:03:06.019
of a dynamic than we originally built out okay um,

00:03:06.856 --> 00:03:10.601
Because maybe he's not the ultimate big bad of the entire series,

00:03:10.601 --> 00:03:13.361
right? Like, Matt, that's what I'm getting at with that.

00:03:14.601 --> 00:03:18.331
Craig is in exile, right? There's a few more villainous creatures that have

00:03:18.331 --> 00:03:20.341
emerged in the last six months.

00:03:21.001 --> 00:03:27.861
Some of the villainous creatures were pitched as potential, like,

00:03:27.861 --> 00:03:31.421
potential, like, the Luke Skywalkers or the Obi-Wan, like, as the,

00:03:31.421 --> 00:03:33.441
like, shining beacon of goodness.

00:03:35.661 --> 00:03:40.199
Like, the Mendez bros. or I don't think Melky Galval wasn't pitched,

00:03:40.356 --> 00:03:42.783
but now we can definitively say that,

00:03:44.907 --> 00:03:48.621
probably not a good guy. Rough. Definitely not. That was a pretty bad scenario.

00:03:49.041 --> 00:03:51.153
About as bad as it gets. Yeah.

00:03:52.121 --> 00:03:54.241
So, you know, like. Allegedly.

00:03:55.670 --> 00:03:59.591
It has not come to a full conclusion. All this allegedly. Remember Mike's going

00:03:59.591 --> 00:04:01.601
off of a couple five-minute interest posts.

00:04:01.601 --> 00:04:03.801
Lots of them, though. That one's not a five-minute interest post.

00:04:03.801 --> 00:04:05.181
We've talked about that on that.

00:04:05.181 --> 00:04:09.201
Indeed. We've talked about that on the show of, like, these dudes that, yeah.

00:04:09.201 --> 00:04:12.241
There were articles. There were articles. More than an Instagram post.

00:04:12.241 --> 00:04:16.741
Actual police. We actually found, like, the actual police report,

00:04:16.741 --> 00:04:20.741
like, what was filed and everything. Want me to pull up the latest on Instagram

00:04:20.741 --> 00:04:22.370
or on the internet just in case?

00:04:22.981 --> 00:04:25.621
On his thing? Might as well. I mean, you can.

00:04:26.601 --> 00:04:33.638
While we're talking, the other, like, there's been, I don't know how recent or, but,

00:04:34.729 --> 00:04:38.882
actually people saying it more so uh i don't know if it's really breaking news

00:04:38.882 --> 00:04:43.712
you know like people talking about like aoj giving steroids to kids and all

00:04:43.712 --> 00:04:47.164
of these different places you know they're they're,

00:04:47.976 --> 00:04:52.338
they're encouraging the they're encouraging doping to minors to teenagers you know like to uh.

00:04:54.192 --> 00:04:58.535
So this is going to make you a champion you got to get on the bomba is that what they did uh,

00:04:59.072 --> 00:05:02.282
i mean imagine that's how they're i imagine that's how the conversation probably

00:05:02.282 --> 00:05:05.172
goes something like that for sure i don't know if that's the exact i didn't

00:05:05.172 --> 00:05:09.692
know if there's any like data or information on like how they were um this i

00:05:09.692 --> 00:05:11.758
mean but this is not like it's,

00:05:12.228 --> 00:05:14.144
if this is coming out as like a thing,

00:05:14.980 --> 00:05:19.892
it's not a new thing no no this isn't like i we you could almost you could look

00:05:19.892 --> 00:05:24.342
at most of these and be like oh no like dude just by the way it look here if

00:05:24.342 --> 00:05:27.742
i may i'll take a step back here right like the prevalence of jiu-jitsu and

00:05:27.742 --> 00:05:29.167
steroids it's been i I just,

00:05:29.608 --> 00:05:32.442
yeah, I've resigned to it many years ago. I don't even consider it,

00:05:32.442 --> 00:05:33.800
like, the worst crime in the world.

00:05:33.985 --> 00:05:38.852
But I'll tell you, I think it was the year that IBJF started at least advertising

00:05:38.852 --> 00:05:42.577
that they would test for steroids. It was when both of the Mendez brothers stopped competing.

00:05:42.786 --> 00:05:46.321
Yeah. And they always looked like fucking units, dude.

00:05:47.325 --> 00:05:50.392
I'm just saying. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, dude.

00:05:50.392 --> 00:05:54.181
Well, and, like, anyone could have told—I don't think this is, like, a major—,

00:05:56.247 --> 00:05:59.124
By the way, nothing compared to what Melky did.

00:06:01.227 --> 00:06:04.177
Just to draw. I guess giving kids some steroids is kind of a mess.

00:06:04.177 --> 00:06:05.945
It's kind of bad. But then also.

00:06:06.160 --> 00:06:09.027
Did they tell the parents? Well, I don't know if you remember.

00:06:09.027 --> 00:06:11.717
My kid just became a freak for no reason. Like, gonna look away.

00:06:11.717 --> 00:06:14.927
He's gonna get so many good college scholarships. I imagine they told their parents.

00:06:15.487 --> 00:06:18.907
I would imagine so. Yeah, I mean, their parents would probably be helping.

00:06:18.907 --> 00:06:21.747
I don't know. Maybe they aren't. But maybe their parents are helping administer.

00:06:22.087 --> 00:06:25.107
I don't know. They're like, hey, your kid is gonna be something.

00:06:25.107 --> 00:06:30.077
Thing give them this um but i mean if you remember and this maybe it maybe it's

00:06:30.077 --> 00:06:31.685
related maybe it's not but,

00:06:32.416 --> 00:06:36.687
some of the world champs that came out from under milky got popped for oh yeah

00:06:36.687 --> 00:06:42.476
steroids and so when you compare that to like pederasty that becomes like that like true,

00:06:44.073 --> 00:06:50.760
i'm just saying like steroids and jiu-jitsu they're like 17 18 19 16 17 18 19 steroids specifically.

00:06:52.426 --> 00:06:57.417
Been around not new not surprising i'm not saying it's okay i guess the definitely

00:06:57.777 --> 00:07:01.127
the list of milky's crimes that one's sort of like i will get to that when we

00:07:01.127 --> 00:07:03.207
get well i think the the point that,

00:07:03.707 --> 00:07:07.662
was the point that was made in the the audio snippet i had heard um,

00:07:08.504 --> 00:07:13.197
was that if you're willing to where's the line right if you're willing to push

00:07:13.197 --> 00:07:17.467
drugs to kids if you're willing to push drugs on kids where is the line i fucking

00:07:17.467 --> 00:07:19.667
agree with you yeah like hey if they're doing this,

00:07:20.427 --> 00:07:23.537
why maybe they would be willing to do other things too you know that that was

00:07:23.537 --> 00:07:28.197
kind of the they weren't accusing them of they were like mendez bros are doing

00:07:28.197 --> 00:07:32.057
this um but you know they were just saying like hey like if they want to do

00:07:32.057 --> 00:07:35.033
that what else are they willing to do what other what other,

00:07:35.672 --> 00:07:39.997
shady inquestionable things are they willing to there's at least one case of

00:07:39.997 --> 00:07:43.857
other nasty things taking place with a person giving out steroids to kids.

00:07:43.967 --> 00:07:46.167
Yeah. Allegedly. So, you know, it's...

00:07:47.642 --> 00:07:56.510
One of those things. So, yeah, some turns have tabled since our prior Star Wars episode.

00:07:57.010 --> 00:08:00.170
And so we thought it might be important to revisit.

00:08:02.210 --> 00:08:05.078
Our thoughts on that. Our plot map of who is who.

00:08:05.188 --> 00:08:09.200
Because one that, so outside the Donner thing, another one that gets a little

00:08:09.200 --> 00:08:17.190
interesting is that now it's coming out that Craig and the B team split.

00:08:17.190 --> 00:08:22.069
Maybe it wasn't as amicable as it appeared. What are the rumors?

00:08:22.928 --> 00:08:26.530
Let's start with rumors. Because I'm assuming there's nothing.

00:08:27.150 --> 00:08:32.440
I mean, I haven't heard. I mean, I don't want to platform too much for somebody,

00:08:32.440 --> 00:08:35.390
but I've heard that like. Without naming names. Yeah.

00:08:36.303 --> 00:08:38.729
You know, there's been. Speculating. I'm going to add this, but you know,

00:08:38.932 --> 00:08:40.651
the speculation, the inklings.

00:08:40.848 --> 00:08:42.860
We're talking about a hypothetical. We're talking about Star Wars.

00:08:42.860 --> 00:08:46.220
Everything's hypothetical. You know, like, there was, you know,

00:08:46.220 --> 00:08:51.260
there's been some people coming out about, like, maybe some conduct stuff that

00:08:51.260 --> 00:08:54.558
was going on amongst the leadership. Okay.

00:08:55.551 --> 00:08:59.920
And so that leads me to question, like, all right, like.

00:08:59.920 --> 00:09:04.125
What the hell's happening? Well, we've seen a lot of, like, Craig trying to,

00:09:05.326 --> 00:09:09.480
and I'm just speculating, we've seen, that we have seen, this is a fact,

00:09:09.480 --> 00:09:16.298
that we've seen Craig, like, trying to point out a lot of the people that are doing,

00:09:17.052 --> 00:09:23.397
weird shit, immoral, like, stuff with sexual conduct. Yeah, immoral sexual conduct.

00:09:24.850 --> 00:09:28.430
Inappropriate sexual behavior. And this isn't, he's not like pointing out people

00:09:28.430 --> 00:09:31.530
that are just like hooking up with consenting adults.

00:09:31.530 --> 00:09:36.401
Okay. This is, he's pointing out like people that are stalking,

00:09:36.714 --> 00:09:41.224
sexual assault, stuff like that, right? And so, someone coming out talking about,

00:09:42.536 --> 00:09:48.116
some conduct with women between that involves that group. It's like,

00:09:48.116 --> 00:09:51.506
all right, well, maybe that's a dividing factor.

00:09:51.826 --> 00:09:57.666
Maybe that means that that's how, you know, that Craig's been pretty vocal about

00:09:57.666 --> 00:10:03.266
being, is he distancing himself from them because of certain behaviors like this?

00:10:03.266 --> 00:10:07.366
Maybe it's just like, cause it, it kind of lines up with the second Craig leaves.

00:10:07.366 --> 00:10:11.296
They bring back J-Rod, you know, he comes back not long afterwards.

00:10:11.296 --> 00:10:15.856
He's back. So, like, that might have been a thing that, that might have been

00:10:15.856 --> 00:10:19.066
a wedge. J-Rod was pretty open about some of the issues that he had had.

00:10:19.406 --> 00:10:24.546
Yeah, and, you know, on the spectrum of things that we've seen in jiu-jitsu,

00:10:24.546 --> 00:10:28.656
it wasn't, you know, it's not quite at the peak of, like. It's not the higher

00:10:28.656 --> 00:10:29.898
end, it's not that rusty.

00:10:30.546 --> 00:10:36.216
But still, inappropriate behavior as a figurehead of an organization,

00:10:36.216 --> 00:10:38.147
right? Like, as someone who's supposed to be, like.

00:10:39.483 --> 00:10:43.676
Uh an example an example or you know someone that you're putting on you're you're

00:10:43.676 --> 00:10:46.646
pushing right you're yeah they're putting this guy out in front of people yeah

00:10:47.046 --> 00:10:50.616
not someone you want representing right so i could see that like,

00:10:51.341 --> 00:10:54.786
maybe that drove a wedge between craig and the other guys that's a possibility

00:10:54.786 --> 00:10:58.406
too that they're like hey we really don't like how you handled taking out,

00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:04.886
nick you know nick's brother so we're not down you know i just trying to you

00:11:04.886 --> 00:11:07.286
know i'm spitballing a couple Yeah, yeah, yeah, speculating.

00:11:07.286 --> 00:11:13.966
We saw what happened, and there's been, I mean, allegations of consensual stuff

00:11:13.966 --> 00:11:17.866
between Craig and somebody, and so, I don't know. It's just there's a lot of different angles.

00:11:17.886 --> 00:11:21.296
A lot of people boning each other, and it's getting kind of messy, huh? A lot of boning.

00:11:21.406 --> 00:11:25.206
Hey, by the way, shout out to not boning your teammates or your students.

00:11:25.206 --> 00:11:29.206
Don't forget, that's a good idea to not do that. We were talking about that this morning.

00:11:30.066 --> 00:11:33.046
Just keep your dick out of the gym. Just, you know, it's, yeah,

00:11:33.646 --> 00:11:37.286
you know, it just makes life a lot simpler. It just keeps it easy.

00:11:37.386 --> 00:11:38.664
Just don't do it. Just don't do it.

00:11:39.446 --> 00:11:42.366
Yeah, it just makes it easy. It makes it a lot easier if you're not doing that.

00:11:42.366 --> 00:11:45.946
For sure. Doesn't drive wedges in between you and your teammates.

00:11:45.946 --> 00:11:50.284
Correct. As seen in this very prominent example. Indeed.

00:11:50.702 --> 00:11:55.340
So, you know, that's one other potential thing.

00:11:55.718 --> 00:12:00.096
So you could say, hey, maybe Craig is still, you know, our good guy in this

00:12:00.096 --> 00:12:01.621
scenario. But maybe he's not.

00:12:02.411 --> 00:12:05.746
Right? And so, like, I... Before we get into the Star Wars analogies,

00:12:05.746 --> 00:12:07.490
you know, he's a public figure. He's just...

00:12:08.192 --> 00:12:10.741
Because we're going to come after public figures. It's unclear.

00:12:11.821 --> 00:12:18.326
He hasn't gotten any... I haven't gotten any milky or other Galveo allegations

00:12:18.326 --> 00:12:21.625
to my knowledge. So, again, in the scale of...

00:12:23.669 --> 00:12:28.591
Bad behavior, he doesn't seem to have that type of smoke.

00:12:28.969 --> 00:12:32.388
Yeah. Currently, I don't know. As of right now, yeah, seems to be doing pretty

00:12:32.388 --> 00:12:37.618
good. And, you know, like, he appears to be a pretty, like, normal,

00:12:37.618 --> 00:12:40.978
okay guy. Well, and honest, at least. You know, like, he's pretty honest.

00:12:40.978 --> 00:12:42.941
Like, hey, I'm not, like, a great dude.

00:12:43.266 --> 00:12:47.108
But, you know, he's like, I like to party and do steroids and do drugs.

00:12:47.108 --> 00:12:49.568
Sex, drugs, and rock and roll, party life. Yeah, he's like, hey,

00:12:49.568 --> 00:12:50.918
like, I'm not a role model.

00:12:51.618 --> 00:12:55.443
And, you know, maybe the fact that some people see him as one is a problem, too. I don't know.

00:12:55.820 --> 00:12:59.668
And I think he's even said that. He's like, if I'm the good guy in jujitsu,

00:12:59.668 --> 00:13:03.398
then we have a serious culture problem. He said something along those lines.

00:13:03.398 --> 00:13:06.128
Yeah, he's still trying to be a famous guy. And, like, that stuff actually even

00:13:06.128 --> 00:13:08.758
works. Trying to be a famous guy is like, I'm just kind of a wild man.

00:13:09.458 --> 00:13:12.138
People like that shit. People like that rock and roll shit, dude.

00:13:12.138 --> 00:13:18.767
You could also look at the fact that, like, he left, he took his talents to

00:13:18.872 --> 00:13:22.076
Tulum, Mexico, right? Like, which...

00:13:23.005 --> 00:13:28.552
Hey, maybe he just likes that, but he, you know, he's, he's fled the country.

00:13:30.252 --> 00:13:34.822
So that's also like a, an interesting, another interesting plot twist to the

00:13:34.822 --> 00:13:41.442
whole thing, right? Like he's now in Mexico full time living basically on a

00:13:41.442 --> 00:13:43.849
resort. That's what he's doing.

00:13:44.302 --> 00:13:48.209
Yeah. I mean, so he's opening a gym in a resort, like in an all inclusive resort.

00:13:49.312 --> 00:13:54.592
Well, okay. It's pretty interesting. It is. So, you know, just kind of like

00:13:54.592 --> 00:13:58.908
the, there's a little mix up there of like our whole. Some things are shifting.

00:13:59.227 --> 00:14:03.534
Yeah. From the Austin, Texas scene, huh? So it makes it all very,

00:14:04.772 --> 00:14:07.672
the waters have muddied. And. Okay.

00:14:08.012 --> 00:14:11.212
I mean, Gordon's still a weirdo. He's still him, but.

00:14:12.652 --> 00:14:14.992
Yeah. He's still like. Seems like he's just being a businessman.

00:14:14.992 --> 00:14:17.832
He's just being him. He's still, you know, a little odd.

00:14:18.517 --> 00:14:21.756
Yeah, but what's new? Which, yeah. I mean, he's at least consistent.

00:14:22.412 --> 00:14:25.752
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't have a whole lot of new stuff from there.

00:14:25.752 --> 00:14:28.512
If you say anything about that guy, he is consistent. Yeah.

00:14:29.252 --> 00:14:33.972
He has not changed. I mean, there was like a, during, there was like a short

00:14:34.352 --> 00:14:39.003
spurt of people like sharing their, uh,

00:14:40.273 --> 00:14:43.888
private like their dm conversations with him and oh yeah i remember that stuff

00:14:43.888 --> 00:14:46.948
like that he just like hollers at girls all the time yeah he just he's like

00:14:46.948 --> 00:14:50.458
constantly dropping to dms and then he also had like the whole thing with his

00:14:50.458 --> 00:14:54.709
girlfriend with like with his uh wife where like the whole.

00:14:56.061 --> 00:15:00.932
Juice no well that but also like her whole thing of like getting in getting

00:15:01.309 --> 00:15:05.825
fleeing the country to get away from a dui and stuff how'd that ever shake,

00:15:06.348 --> 00:15:09.958
uh shoot i have no idea with it she's probably still just out of the country

00:15:09.958 --> 00:15:14.358
and probably she shows back up she's just ah fucked i guess i don't know she's

00:15:14.358 --> 00:15:17.898
the one who got hammered she's like i'm going to fucking jujitsu yeah nice and

00:15:17.898 --> 00:15:20.506
then uh we also have isaac michelle,

00:15:21.029 --> 00:15:24.541
oh yeah so that whole thing too was he still in the run too,

00:15:25.658 --> 00:15:30.378
uh i think they got him oh okay they finally kicked him out of adcc also okay

00:15:30.378 --> 00:15:34.833
it took them oh that was a while ago but like that was a whole thing too of like,

00:15:35.407 --> 00:15:38.468
we're gonna kick this guy out Well, like people just be like,

00:15:38.468 --> 00:15:41.095
dude, are you going to get, are you going to remove this,

00:15:41.774 --> 00:15:43.978
this wanted criminal from your,

00:15:44.845 --> 00:15:47.713
from your roster for worlds? Like, what are you doing?

00:15:49.228 --> 00:15:54.518
So yeah, like a bunch of shit got weird. Right. So our, our whole.

00:15:54.858 --> 00:15:58.110
Turns out jujitsu attracts some pretty weird people.

00:15:58.516 --> 00:16:00.878
Breaking news. Breaking news.

00:16:01.860 --> 00:16:05.557
Weird unhinged male behavior. Who would have guessed it?

00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:10.248
But yeah, so our whole Star Wars theory kind of got like twisted up.

00:16:10.398 --> 00:16:13.452
It's thrown through the fucking, you know, we don't even know we're all twisted up here.

00:16:13.620 --> 00:16:17.667
So, I don't know, maybe we have to come up with a whole new theory. I...

00:16:18.613 --> 00:16:24.579
I don't know. Maybe they're all Sith Lords. Maybe we're in the dark times.

00:16:28.079 --> 00:16:32.749
We're in the peak of the Sith Empire, I guess. Perhaps. And everyone's just

00:16:32.749 --> 00:16:35.633
evil, and the rule of two doesn't exist yet.

00:16:35.854 --> 00:16:39.939
It's actually just a bunch of Sith Lords vying for ultimate power.

00:16:41.119 --> 00:16:44.539
Maybe it's just Highlander. That could be a... It's Highlander.

00:16:44.779 --> 00:16:46.179
We need to find another analogy.

00:16:46.539 --> 00:16:53.019
Uh yeah so uh the they're all a member of the evil forces though is where i'm,

00:16:53.499 --> 00:17:00.302
i think i'm leaning to now and like the rest of us are just kind of like existing within it,

00:17:01.945 --> 00:17:03.939
we're all under the iron fist of,

00:17:05.997 --> 00:17:10.089
uh i don't know what to call it well you know it's the it's the sith empire

00:17:10.089 --> 00:17:15.199
was a competitive combat athletes on a mega scale with a bunch of instagram

00:17:15.199 --> 00:17:17.694

review. Now back to the show.

00:17:52.955 --> 00:17:57.384
I don't know. They would have gotten it if they did anything else in life. Yeah.

00:17:58.403 --> 00:18:01.453
When you break it down to the lowest common denominator, it's like not a big

00:18:01.453 --> 00:18:05.894
surprise. You're just going to get a bunch of crazy behavior. So it's not surprising.

00:18:07.043 --> 00:18:10.813
It is surprising when you see it, but like I said, you take a couple steps back

00:18:10.813 --> 00:18:13.973
and you're like, nah, it kind of checks out. I mean, think about the crazy shit

00:18:13.973 --> 00:18:16.863
you've seen in like the local jujitsu scene.

00:18:17.263 --> 00:18:19.455
I mean, yeah, it's very true. You've seen wild shit.

00:18:20.006 --> 00:18:22.913
Wild people doing wild, dumb stuff.

00:18:22.913 --> 00:18:27.523
Stuff so then like you 10x that at least well yeah now you take it to a global

00:18:27.523 --> 00:18:30.356
scale and it's like and you put them with like,

00:18:30.925 --> 00:18:38.823
instagram instagram and way more shit to deal with only fans girls yeah just austin in general for,

00:18:39.323 --> 00:18:44.573
a good portion of it like now they're just in texas and doing texas things on

00:18:44.573 --> 00:18:47.063
top of the only way everything's bigger in florida,

00:18:48.741 --> 00:18:53.193
you can bind those together and it's a whole whole nother thing yeah sort of

00:18:53.193 --> 00:18:55.345
just vibes it checks out with the entire like.

00:18:57.383 --> 00:19:02.363
General history of people that I've seen in martial arts well in a small scale

00:19:02.363 --> 00:19:07.793
but there's they're just it's amplified and so the way that the Sith Empire

00:19:07.793 --> 00:19:11.060
worked alright let's hear it so we're gonna throw this so we're back,

00:19:12.186 --> 00:19:16.032
night so there was the old republic yep and the knights of the old republic

00:19:16.032 --> 00:19:20.719
right and then from within it collapsed because the night some of the jedi

00:19:21.097 --> 00:19:24.622
split off i'm gonna nerd out it's gonna be great bring it uh and some of the

00:19:24.622 --> 00:19:28.722
jedi split off and joined the sith cut and then more and this is when there's

00:19:28.722 --> 00:19:34.012
actually like sith armies not rule of two there's not there can only be two of them,

00:19:34.532 --> 00:19:38.172
whatever right i don't know this stuff so this is fun uh so the knights of the

00:19:38.172 --> 00:19:43.222
old republic was a game and it was amazing uh it's all right it's like pinnacle

00:19:43.222 --> 00:19:45.252
lore is based on the game all right,

00:19:45.992 --> 00:19:48.052
i remember the game i never played it but i remember like seeing it i remember

00:19:48.052 --> 00:19:51.612
thinking it looked fucking cool it was yeah it was a cool way like i unfortunately

00:19:51.612 --> 00:19:55.602
missed it could just like do i mean you're just a jedi right battling and shit

00:19:55.602 --> 00:19:58.716
yeah rpg doing jedi battling and shit yeah uh,

00:19:59.672 --> 00:20:03.492
great like who doesn't want a lightsaber battle yeah uh but so basically like

00:20:03.492 --> 00:20:09.542
the two main forces were turned to the dark side, like forcibly transitioned to the dark side.

00:20:09.542 --> 00:20:12.080
One of them ends up transitioning back and forth. It's a whole thing.

00:20:13.560 --> 00:20:18.832
But the whole point is like the Sith Empire is able to gain enough traction

00:20:19.172 --> 00:20:24.302
that they just like they turn all the good guys to the bad side or you could

00:20:24.302 --> 00:20:25.392
even be... Mass conversion.

00:20:26.012 --> 00:20:31.002
Or it could be if you are the hero long enough, you live long enough to see

00:20:31.002 --> 00:20:33.352
yourself become the villain. Similar concept.

00:20:34.063 --> 00:20:39.902
Nothing's new okay but so like they all the powerful good guys basically come

00:20:39.902 --> 00:20:43.012
bad guys and just like wipe out the good guys for a while and then,

00:20:43.752 --> 00:20:47.342
like most come back and when eventually they come back and there's the republic

00:20:47.342 --> 00:20:50.222
again but then there's still the sleeper cells there's always well the sith

00:20:50.222 --> 00:20:55.372
destroys itself that's why they're why the rule of two so they like start infighting.

00:20:56.632 --> 00:21:00.092
So that's where we're at right now right we're at the point where we're i'm

00:21:00.092 --> 00:21:02.612
gonna go ahead and throw it out there we're at the point where we're at the

00:21:02.612 --> 00:21:07.429
infighting and now they're just all really just powerful bad dudes,

00:21:08.085 --> 00:21:12.652
that are just trying to see who's the most powerful bad dude yeah and in fact

00:21:12.652 --> 00:21:15.022
most of them do fight on a world stage,

00:21:15.864 --> 00:21:18.841
oh so like,

00:21:19.376 --> 00:21:23.995
most of our competitors say duel so what i'm saying yeah they will in the game

00:21:23.995 --> 00:21:27.735
no well i'm just this past this we're past the game i'm interested in the game

00:21:27.735 --> 00:21:31.785
this is just the outside but so like the sith like you know they're they're

00:21:31.785 --> 00:21:34.091
warring with each other to try to buy for,

00:21:34.590 --> 00:21:38.613
ultimate power to be the emperor of the sith or whatever um,

00:21:39.287 --> 00:21:42.921
and so now they're just like that's where we're at,

00:21:43.725 --> 00:21:49.505
and we have all these individuals that are also just bad guys I'm basically just saying,

00:21:50.105 --> 00:21:55.191
jujitsu is just full of like well we're all fallible humans we're exacerbating this but,

00:21:55.696 --> 00:21:59.235
you know you have like no one is the good guy in this scenario is what I'm saying

00:21:59.235 --> 00:22:02.775
we don't have the good guy I would say you're right yeah and so they're all

00:22:02.775 --> 00:22:06.186
just like vying for ultimate power to see who's the best in the world champion.

00:22:07.945 --> 00:22:10.525
So that's where we're at in the yeah I'm gonna throw that out there I think

00:22:10.525 --> 00:22:12.065
that's The old Republic, all right.

00:22:12.065 --> 00:22:16.405
At least outwardly. With it, in terms of scale and positioning of the Star Wars

00:22:16.405 --> 00:22:17.665
lore. We're in the peak of the Sith.

00:22:17.705 --> 00:22:21.209
Pre-times. We're in the downfall of the Sith Empire. I'm going to give us hope.

00:22:21.377 --> 00:22:23.565
Eventually, the Republic will rise again.

00:22:24.325 --> 00:22:26.585
And we'll have good guys.

00:22:27.444 --> 00:22:29.755
And then we'll have to deal with the Sith Empire. We'll have to deal with the

00:22:29.755 --> 00:22:33.034
Empire. And basically, you know, it's just a cycle, guys.

00:22:33.196 --> 00:22:36.655
It's all a cycle. Bad guys come into power. Then it's just...

00:22:36.725 --> 00:22:40.935
Hey, don't I know it. Yeah. But ultimately, you can revel in the fact that if

00:22:40.935 --> 00:22:45.153
you watch ADCC Worlds, you'll get to see the Sith battle to the death.

00:22:46.185 --> 00:22:50.053
Are there any Siths that are matched up for ADCC? I don't think they've released the bracket yet.

00:22:51.005 --> 00:22:54.100
Any Siths in the bracket that you're like... No, they do it,

00:22:54.100 --> 00:22:56.310
like, the day before, don't they? Well, they won't have the bracket yet,

00:22:56.310 --> 00:22:57.953
but they've announced some of the competitors.

00:22:58.157 --> 00:23:00.350
Whether any Sith Lords are like, ooh, he's a bad boy.

00:23:01.310 --> 00:23:04.390
I mean, there's some that I would say aren't bad guys. Like,

00:23:04.390 --> 00:23:09.150
they have, like, Gavin Corbett's. We'll give Gavin a break. He's not a bad guy. He's a good guy.

00:23:09.910 --> 00:23:13.240
Gavin's a good dude. I'd have to pull up the... There's too many...

00:23:13.370 --> 00:23:16.250
I'd have to pull the whole bracket out. Are there any names that you know off the top of your head?

00:23:18.630 --> 00:23:23.101
Craig's in it? Craig competing? I've heard I thought they announced a poster,

00:23:24.279 --> 00:23:29.670
I couldn't tell if it was Craig announcing a joke fair enough or it's tough

00:23:29.670 --> 00:23:35.477
to read what he's up to so let's just ADCC that would be the minus 88 bracket,

00:23:36.063 --> 00:23:38.786
minus 88 kilogram worlds,

00:23:40.467 --> 00:23:45.210
well there are there are matchups I that would be interested in because like

00:23:45.210 --> 00:23:51.676
we have it would be cool because I think so we have Brandon Reed is beating and,

00:23:53.710 --> 00:23:57.354
bless you at the heavyweight um Clem,

00:23:59.048 --> 00:24:01.393
Why can't it just give me the things I ask for?

00:24:03.552 --> 00:24:08.823
But so we have Ren and Reed at Heavyweight. Give me the fucking brackets.

00:24:10.983 --> 00:24:14.358
Shit, this is awful. Whatever.

00:24:16.300 --> 00:24:22.008
I can't pull up all of them. There's too many. Yeah, I can't name them off the

00:24:22.008 --> 00:24:23.516
top of my head. I would have to pull it up. That's all right.

00:24:23.765 --> 00:24:28.958
So once I have it, I can tell you, give you the full bit because I don't remember

00:24:28.958 --> 00:24:30.768
who all has been announced.

00:24:30.768 --> 00:24:33.288
I know they've been giving out invitations. I'm on their page right now.

00:24:33.288 --> 00:24:35.798
It just looks like a shit ton of clips. Can't really find any.

00:24:35.798 --> 00:24:40.778
I know a lot of people have dropped out because they were like, no, fuck ADCC.

00:24:42.688 --> 00:24:47.888
Yeah? What are they going to? There's no CGI. UFC, BJJ. Oh, no,

00:24:47.888 --> 00:24:49.598
it's begun. Yeah, it's begun.

00:24:51.036 --> 00:24:57.369
Yeah, so I've seen that where people are like, no, we're out.

00:24:57.770 --> 00:25:02.778
Are you on their page uh I found nothing on their page yeah I don't see any

00:25:02.778 --> 00:25:07.551
of it makes me wonder like did everybody drop out um yeah.

00:25:10.211 --> 00:25:15.032
But ADCC official, I know that there is. Yeah, I think it gives you some answers.

00:25:15.032 --> 00:25:21.862
Because also, a lot of people have been dropping out because they disagree with.

00:25:21.862 --> 00:25:23.452
Oh, here we go, actually. I did find it.

00:25:23.938 --> 00:25:27.982
Their pay practices. Oh, turn the volume off. Sorry, bro. I was trying to get

00:25:27.982 --> 00:25:30.468
the freaking 88 division in front of us here.

00:25:31.362 --> 00:25:35.322
At 88, dude, here's what I have. I have Joseph Chen, Powell Jaworski,

00:25:35.322 --> 00:25:41.872
Jaworski, Nathan Haddad, Pedro Mourinho J-Rod what up bad boy there's one redemption

00:25:41.872 --> 00:25:43.732
story so actually there's the one if,

00:25:44.975 --> 00:25:50.501
if Craig is an 88 he's going against his boys Craig versus J-Rod,

00:25:51.792 --> 00:25:56.502
there's there's your Sith battle well Joseph Chen was a B team too oh Joseph

00:25:56.502 --> 00:25:59.352
Chen I didn't hear sorry I missed the yeah yeah yeah so yeah Joseph Chen,

00:26:00.062 --> 00:26:04.742
99's interesting it's just to put aside all this bullshit we're talking about

00:26:04.742 --> 00:26:11.422
just like the division itself is Felipe Pena Victor Hugo Big Daniel Menesu,

00:26:12.235 --> 00:26:19.178

00:26:42.263 --> 00:26:48.504

00:26:49.164 --> 00:26:52.554
Wagner, Dante. Mateusz, that'll be a great division. Well, if it's something,

00:26:52.554 --> 00:26:57.455
I think it's Mateusz, the guy from Marcello, Marcello's guy. Nice.

00:26:57.890 --> 00:27:00.856
No, it's not Mateusz. Different Mateusz? No, no, no, no. Mateusz.

00:27:03.164 --> 00:27:06.914
Different guy then. Polish guy. Elijah Dorsey, Tommy Langeker,

00:27:06.914 --> 00:27:10.080
Kaya Rudolph, Mateusz Gamrot, a lot of Mateusz's.

00:27:10.916 --> 00:27:18.881
Jacob Bornemann, Nikolaj Witrow, Michael Sainz, Magomed Zarbaev,

00:27:19.432 --> 00:27:23.917
Julio Martins Alexandre de Jesus Jesus,

he's Brazilian so the Jesus Oliver Taza Taylor Perlman nice division,

00:27:32.085 --> 00:27:35.834
yeah start talking about the divisions yeah there's a lot of 66 I'll finish

00:27:35.834 --> 00:27:36.949
I might as well yeah mine's a little,

00:27:37.460 --> 00:27:43.284
my's a little Nico de Mikulsins this is a blah blah Polish bro alright I mean

00:27:43.284 --> 00:27:47.734
they are in Poland but yeah don't they get doesn't don't they get like an automatic

00:27:47.734 --> 00:27:50.028
for someone from that country. Don't know.

00:27:50.394 --> 00:27:57.075
Dorian Olivares, Ryoma An-Kraku, Yigit Hane,

00:27:58.045 --> 00:28:06.677
David Santos, Kawhi Gabriel, Gianni Gripo, Bekzat Kapashov.

00:28:08.047 --> 00:28:12.517
Fabricio Andre, Jacob Will Clocks, Kennedy Maciel.

00:28:12.894 --> 00:28:15.152
That dude looks like he's on some sauce, by the way. I don't know if you saw

00:28:15.152 --> 00:28:17.074
him flexing on Instagram. Which guy?

00:28:18.112 --> 00:28:22.993
Kennedy Maciel. Cobrinha's kid. Oh, yeah. Yoked, bro.

00:28:23.371 --> 00:28:28.442
Diego Pato, Felipe Machado, Owen Jones, Dominic Mejia, and Josh Cisneros.

00:28:28.442 --> 00:28:30.273
Good division, too. I think Dorian's going to win.

00:28:30.714 --> 00:28:33.146
Okay. All right.

00:28:33.878 --> 00:28:39.612
Yeah. The women. They are. far less controversial the women are all very well

00:28:39.612 --> 00:28:44.232
behaved it seems like we don't we don't have enough there's not as much information on the,

00:28:45.152 --> 00:28:48.772
yeah we don't know antics of the women other than just like winning matches

00:28:48.772 --> 00:28:52.562
there's a lot of the worst thing you probably say is just guilty by association

00:28:52.562 --> 00:28:57.452
at this point I don't know enough I mean I'm gonna leave the daughter of one of the accused,

00:28:57.952 --> 00:29:01.102
I will say she's just trying to train dude she's like in high school or something

00:29:01.102 --> 00:29:01.972
dude no I'm saying they're all,

00:29:02.472 --> 00:29:05.872
I'm just saying the ladies have been well behaved the worst I've heard is,

00:29:06.632 --> 00:29:10.132
the worst I've heard about any of the women is oh you train at this place it

00:29:10.132 --> 00:29:12.812
just seems like school I don't know dude it seems like school the boys are causing

00:29:12.812 --> 00:29:16.052
all kinds of problems the girls are probably causing some problems too but these

00:29:16.052 --> 00:29:19.392
ladies look like they're just trying to win fights it's just orders of magnitude right

00:29:19.772 --> 00:29:23.695
oh yeah their problems are just different problems different problems,

00:29:24.972 --> 00:29:26.348
as far as you know.

00:29:27.852 --> 00:29:31.172
Crimes versus problems fair enough

00:29:31.172 --> 00:29:37.372
crimes versus problems fair enough but yeah so I mean just in terms of.

00:29:38.962 --> 00:29:43.682
It's just yeah I don't know the whole Star Wars series fucked it's fucked right

00:29:43.682 --> 00:29:44.592
now I think we're gonna keep.

00:29:45.892 --> 00:29:49.782
Our board game upside down they didn't think about us when they made these decisions

00:29:49.782 --> 00:29:53.649
and it's really disheartening and fucking up our shit yeah so I,

00:29:54.432 --> 00:29:57.482
don't know this is gonna be a short one because that's what we got that's what

00:29:57.482 --> 00:30:00.952
we got yeah well hopefully we get to see some Sith Lords competing against one

00:30:00.952 --> 00:30:05.590
another as you said UFC BJJ is doing what they're gonna do stealing some fighters There's,

00:30:06.604 --> 00:30:09.851
I mean, hey, you know, it's the UFC's game. That's what they do,

00:30:09.851 --> 00:30:11.331
man. They should start snatching them up.

00:30:12.171 --> 00:30:15.151
Back when that all started, that was one of the things we talked about,

00:30:15.151 --> 00:30:17.836
right? The division for ADCC still looks pretty dope, though.

00:30:18.080 --> 00:30:19.130
Yeah, I mean, it's still...

00:30:19.791 --> 00:30:22.101
It's still pretty top tier. You're going to have people, too,

00:30:22.101 --> 00:30:26.341
that, like, they kind of need to do this probably before UFC's,

00:30:26.341 --> 00:30:27.241
like, yo, come over here.

00:30:27.251 --> 00:30:31.251
Because, like, they still want the resumes. Like, there are certain guys...

00:30:31.251 --> 00:30:35.161
They want the big matchups. ...that are still, like, really good that just haven't

00:30:35.161 --> 00:30:42.071
had the match that makes them, you know, like, we want to put you on pay-per-view.

00:30:42.071 --> 00:30:44.684
I've seen them put some people on UFC BJ that just seem like,

00:30:45.322 --> 00:30:49.310
I don't even know, like friends of someone who's been on UFC BJ before.

00:30:49.525 --> 00:30:52.509
Also makes sense. But they have headliners that you were talking about. Yeah.

00:30:52.747 --> 00:30:55.034
The Tackett's aren't there. The Rutolos aren't there.

00:30:56.291 --> 00:30:59.251
But I guess if you want to come in as, like, a big name, you know,

00:30:59.251 --> 00:31:02.711
like if you want to be one of their, like, Headliner dudes.

00:31:02.811 --> 00:31:07.211
The headliner signed-up athletes are going to have to, they want me to do something.

00:31:07.351 --> 00:31:09.671
Nicky Rod's in the UFC BJJ, I believe. I think he's out of ADC.

00:31:10.331 --> 00:31:13.131
He's not competing in ADC. Yeah, he moved over to UFC. A while ago,

00:31:13.131 --> 00:31:18.231
huh? Yeah. Put some paper out of him. I think. I assume. Ethan, I think, is in UFC BJJ.

00:31:20.255 --> 00:31:23.781
I didn't see Nicky Ryan on there. Maybe he's not competing. He's always,

00:31:23.781 --> 00:31:26.131
he had like a million injuries. He had all his knees.

00:31:26.371 --> 00:31:28.660
His knees are destroyed. He's had everything.

00:31:30.181 --> 00:31:34.181
But he's... I mean, he, like, just started, like, really walking last year.

00:31:34.181 --> 00:31:36.051
Really? I mean, that's what... Was it that bad?

00:31:36.491 --> 00:31:39.141
Or maybe earlier. I don't remember. But, yeah, I think it was last...

00:31:39.171 --> 00:31:40.282
Like, he really wasn't...

00:31:40.775 --> 00:31:44.299
He, like, just got back to training last year, I think. Okay, got it. I think.

00:31:44.485 --> 00:31:46.671
So, he's probably just trying to rehab his shit, figure out what's going on

00:31:46.671 --> 00:31:50.471
with his business. If I remember correctly, I could be misremembering.

00:31:50.471 --> 00:31:52.751
But, yeah, I mean, also, he's probably trying to...

00:31:52.851 --> 00:31:57.291
Because he was... He took over B-team, so he's also probably trying to run business.

00:31:57.291 --> 00:32:00.791
To repair the business, trying to put it together. Or whatever. allegations?

00:32:01.528 --> 00:32:04.738
Yeah. The Jedi Council, was it the...

00:32:05.797 --> 00:32:07.942
Fucking old Dave Chappelle thing, the Jedi Council.

00:32:10.702 --> 00:32:17.542
Accusations. Yeah. The Jedi. He's trying to recover the PR. He's doing PR for

00:32:17.542 --> 00:32:19.362
the company. Man, maybe. Maybe.

00:32:19.922 --> 00:32:25.502
He's just trying to put out all the fires that all of his meatheads set. People are still going.

00:32:25.822 --> 00:32:28.542
They're going to be all right, dude. ABCC's all right, dude.

00:32:28.542 --> 00:32:32.092
The criminals are on the run, it looks like. Hopefully. Some of the bad boys

00:32:32.092 --> 00:32:34.628
who aren't criminals are just being bad boys and still fighting.

00:32:35.063 --> 00:32:39.272
Yeah and some of them who are criminals are too true that which ones are the

00:32:39.272 --> 00:32:42.906
criminals well I guess not full criminals,

00:32:43.862 --> 00:32:48.892
bad boys we got some we got some guys that have been you know J-Rod's in there

00:32:48.892 --> 00:32:50.342
he's been dinged he's a wild boy

00:32:50.342 --> 00:32:55.962
just nothing criminal fully criminal just nasty just being kind of nasty,

00:32:57.122 --> 00:33:02.382
morally questionable morally unsound sure and I'm sure that within the next,

00:33:02.991 --> 00:33:06.392
probably hell by the time this posts somebody's gonna do something else fucked

00:33:06.392 --> 00:33:10.091
up that's on that list yeah I mean I'm telling you man like this is like.

00:33:11.755 --> 00:33:16.582
When you take a step back and you're like it's like combat sports you're like oh yeah duh,

00:33:18.135 --> 00:33:22.272
types of dudes that get into it tend to be and then you put a bunch of them

00:33:22.272 --> 00:33:27.022
together they're gonna out bro out out psycho each other like yeah yeah it's

00:33:27.022 --> 00:33:29.662
kind of competitive male fucking environment it's gonna be a bunch of,

00:33:30.242 --> 00:33:34.022
wild shit yeah it's like a college football team that doesn't have anyone kind

00:33:34.022 --> 00:33:36.821
of keeping them out of trouble these guys have no one keeping them out of trouble

00:33:37.245 --> 00:33:40.722
except for themselves it's the it's the Miami there's not enough money there's

00:33:40.722 --> 00:33:44.559
not enough money for like lawyers and like PR teams and like handlers to get involved like dude.

00:33:45.697 --> 00:33:50.451
There's like an entire surrounding business model of people keeping,

00:33:51.235 --> 00:33:54.590
dudes who can generate a lot of money from doing dumb shit so they can make

00:33:54.590 --> 00:33:57.121
money well i mean not that much money it's,

00:33:57.563 --> 00:34:02.932
like an nfl team right like they'll have guys that they know that like if we leave him unsupervised

00:34:03.368 --> 00:34:07.380
we're fine this will be a problem right so they basically like you have a handler

00:34:07.380 --> 00:34:10.030
they build an infrastructure around those guys yeah you're not allowed to have

00:34:10.030 --> 00:34:13.690
your own hotel room yeah they have to keep a buffer around those guys this dude

00:34:13.690 --> 00:34:17.635
we need he's too good at football but he also so self-destructive

00:34:17.809 --> 00:34:21.480
same shit here but the problem is no one's gonna be a handler because,

00:34:22.200 --> 00:34:26.700
and also they're all that guy right like yeah yeah they're all just like similar

00:34:26.700 --> 00:34:29.780
type of person yeah they're all like oh no like that sounds fun let's go do

00:34:29.780 --> 00:34:35.282
it and like that guy might be not a problem but he's totally willing to instigate you know like so,

00:34:36.106 --> 00:34:39.460
you you run into that and yeah so it's the name of the game it's the name of

00:34:39.460 --> 00:34:41.284
the game uh yeah so that kind of,

00:34:42.138 --> 00:34:47.620
that's that that's that that's that so yeah so we're unclear on Star Wars we're

00:34:47.620 --> 00:34:50.607
figuring it out let us know what you guys think let us know if there's a different,

00:34:51.165 --> 00:34:54.444
we would love to hear your theories different doesn't have to be sci-fi,

00:34:55.315 --> 00:34:59.330
could be could be whatever hop on the website and just throw a theory I don't

00:34:59.330 --> 00:35:01.892
care what it is yeah throw a theory I just,

00:35:02.629 --> 00:35:08.430
help we're open for new paradigms yeah help us you know make sense of whatever

00:35:08.430 --> 00:35:10.360
the fucking world we're in whatever this is.

00:35:11.500 --> 00:35:16.480
Whatever the hell is going on yeah dude I get that help me make sense of the

00:35:16.480 --> 00:35:20.264
people involved in this silly ass world that we're in cause I don't,

00:35:21.354 --> 00:35:25.578
I don't get the thought process for some of these.

00:35:25.978 --> 00:35:29.658
I don't get the thought process of people here, dude. It's like, dude, what?

00:35:33.296 --> 00:35:37.138
So, yeah. I mean, hell, it's on the record that, you know, the whole.

00:35:37.138 --> 00:35:40.250
Well, no, Mikey. Mikey's a bad guy, too. Shit.

00:35:40.790 --> 00:35:42.578
I can't believe it is not thinking about that.

00:35:43.878 --> 00:35:45.643
I was just about to be like, you know, and I even talked. It was like,

00:35:45.748 --> 00:35:49.388
fuck, Mikey's also not a good. I think he was just. He's always.

00:35:49.388 --> 00:35:53.619
I think he's always been a bad guy, though. I think, okay. He's just better at hiding it. Okay.

00:35:54.432 --> 00:35:59.358
I think he was just getting a little taste of like, he's like, maybe I can be a bad boy.

00:35:59.798 --> 00:36:02.348
He was spending too much time with Craig Jones, the bad influence on him,

00:36:02.348 --> 00:36:03.808
dude. He was spending a lot of time with Craig Jones. He's like,

00:36:03.808 --> 00:36:05.598
this stuff works for Craig. What if I did it? He's like, no,

00:36:05.598 --> 00:36:06.318
no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:36:06.538 --> 00:36:08.798
He's like, nevermind, nevermind. That's not me. That's not me.

00:36:08.798 --> 00:36:11.568
You're right, guys, I tried. I'm going to go back to making pasta jokes.

00:36:11.568 --> 00:36:13.580
That's right. Not my thing, not my brand.

00:36:14.347 --> 00:36:17.743
He's like, okay, that doesn't work for me. Craig corrupted. I'm too weird.

00:36:17.946 --> 00:36:20.478
Craig was like, drink that whiskey, dude. Wasn't that every day?

00:36:20.938 --> 00:36:24.678
Drink that vodka. She dropped shots of tequila on the, Mikey started,

00:36:24.678 --> 00:36:27.438
do a shot, do a shot, Mikey. Can I just take a sip? No.

00:36:27.958 --> 00:36:31.498
Next thing you know, like you said, like you pointed out, he has like the scumbag

00:36:31.498 --> 00:36:35.418
goggles on. He's like watching babes. Dude, like that was hilarious.

00:36:35.418 --> 00:36:37.282
Dude, that is fucking dude.

00:36:38.158 --> 00:36:42.443
Yeah, so, yeah. Is there anything you want to say about this?

00:36:43.459 --> 00:36:47.505
I just, dude, I just want, like, that was the one that I was just like,

00:36:48.323 --> 00:36:50.718
what the fuck are we doing? Yeah.

00:36:51.158 --> 00:36:52.758
What is this? What are we becoming?

00:36:53.578 --> 00:36:58.819
It made me question jujitsu. Like, I was like, oh shit. What is this?

00:36:59.109 --> 00:37:01.442
The entirety of jujitsu, like.

00:37:04.611 --> 00:37:09.564
Zeitgeist is like a teenager yeah it's like doesn't know what exactly what it's

00:37:09.564 --> 00:37:13.844
doing doesn't know exactly how to portray it so that's what it is like we use

00:37:13.844 --> 00:37:16.070
the high school analogy a lot but like,

00:37:16.679 --> 00:37:19.914
yeah maybe the whole we're just like one symbiotic,

00:37:20.783 --> 00:37:26.804
middle school hormonal being correct just like it doesn't know what it wants

00:37:26.804 --> 00:37:34.074
to be correct it can't figure it out yeah it's like maybe this is who i am maybe this is who i am yeah,

00:37:35.354 --> 00:37:41.635
yeah it's yeah it's kind of fucked uh hill thing we talked about like yeah yeah

00:37:41.902 --> 00:37:46.104
it's it doesn't know what's up yet nobody knows it doesn't know what it wants

00:37:46.104 --> 00:37:48.932
to be it's still in like the growing pains that you know what,

00:37:49.466 --> 00:37:53.154
if you want to liken it to other sports too we didn't get to see any of that

00:37:53.154 --> 00:37:54.383
because there wasn't like.

00:37:55.782 --> 00:37:59.514
Television and like social media in,

00:38:00.269 --> 00:38:04.254
the the like 24-hour news cycle like none of that was like a thing back when

00:38:04.254 --> 00:38:05.748
like football was started

00:38:06.073 --> 00:38:09.584
oh basketball was started so like i imagine it was exactly the same thing with

00:38:09.584 --> 00:38:13.014
all these like mainstream sports well like football started just missed it didn't

00:38:13.014 --> 00:38:15.904
like yale invent football or like that like the first game was like yale and

00:38:15.904 --> 00:38:20.424
harvard like 100 years ago or something it all had to get like newspapered right like yeah

00:38:20.844 --> 00:38:24.404
there was no like immediate response and so like there was time i think those

00:38:24.404 --> 00:38:29.044
yale like rich fuckers were up to some crazy shit you know they were but we just didn't get to see it,

00:38:29.504 --> 00:38:32.604
dude they were able to cover shit up back well they had the secret society that's

00:38:32.604 --> 00:38:34.924
right dude yeah you think skull and bones gonna let them like,

00:38:35.400 --> 00:38:37.144
nah man they're up to some creep shit too,

00:38:37.704 --> 00:38:43.234
and just the they were still 19 22 year old bros back then well yeah and then

00:38:43.234 --> 00:38:45.407
all that like all that like.

00:38:46.846 --> 00:38:53.005
Aspect of like no like we just won't be obvious about our shit fuckery,

00:38:53.493 --> 00:38:57.412
much easier to hide in like the 30s or 20s yeah and now everyone's like no we're

00:38:57.412 --> 00:39:00.892
gonna tell the world about all the bad things we're doing you know we're gonna

00:39:00.892 --> 00:39:03.542
brag about it online we're gonna brag about what was that bad i didn't know

00:39:03.542 --> 00:39:07.511
any better i better take it down yeah and so maybe that's,

00:39:08.091 --> 00:39:12.952
maybe that's what it is maybe it took us 40 minutes to get there dude it's like

00:39:12.952 --> 00:39:16.172
it's like giving like a nine-year-old a gun, dude. Yeah.

00:39:17.152 --> 00:39:20.692
Yeah, yeah. And so, yeah, maybe that's all it is. It's just like,

00:39:20.692 --> 00:39:29.053
it's more obvious and really this is just what sports are. It's just sports. And it's fucked up.

00:39:29.452 --> 00:39:32.552
But, and it shouldn't, it would be great if it wasn't that way.

00:39:32.552 --> 00:39:35.745
That's life, brother. But maybe it's just like the fact that.

00:39:37.033 --> 00:39:41.193
This phase was missed in the other sports in terms of like the ability to like

00:39:41.193 --> 00:39:45.313
see and cover it to the extent at which things are seen and covered today. Yeah.

00:39:46.038 --> 00:39:51.113
And, uh, doesn't make it right. Just, maybe it's just helping me understand

00:39:51.113 --> 00:39:51.993
what's happening better. Yeah.

00:39:52.778 --> 00:39:55.901
You're just listening to us try to figure out what the fuck is going on.

00:39:56.818 --> 00:40:01.478
