Bobby ends up enlightening me on so many different aspects of life. I always encourage you to listen to my Maximus episodes and this one is particularly informative. We end up chatting about relationships, mindset, framing and perspective, plus much more. www.bobbymaximus.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Dr. Drew Pinsky has been my professional partner on the radio and television for a long time. Through our professional partnership we've developed a beautiful friendship. Drew and I get right into Covid talk and I sincerely feel its a different conversation than the one you're commonly hearing. Drew is not only a board certified MD, he's also a member of the media. Because of this, he has some of the most insightful views on how this pandemic is being handled. This is not a divisive, agenda driven hit piece. That's the last thing anybody needs. This is a thoughtful investigation of the radical experience we've all been having for the last six months. We also talk about how he is old and weak. Yeah Buddy!!!!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

So if you listened to the last episode with Ryan Bader, you may have heard me talk about the 12-week program I am doing. It is from the "Maximus Body" by Bobby Maximus (aka Rob MacDonald). The book is fantastic and I recommend it to you all. There is a six month program that is very comprehensive and well programmed. There is also a 12 week program that is gnarly!!!! I chose the latter. Its 6 days a week, two workouts a day, for 12 weeks. More than anything, it asks you to really get to know yourself. Maximus, much to my surprise, offered to personally guide me through the program. I'm overwhelmed by how generous and helpful he's being and I definitely don't take it for granted. Here is check in podcast number one of my journey, where Maximus himself gives me some guidance and motivation.

My friend, my former Jiu Jitsu Professor and one hell of a guy. He's Orlando Sanchez. It's always amazing to watch someone achieve greatness, and as an ADCC champion, Orlando has definitely done that. But this young man came from a very deep hole only to get back to ground zero. He's built himself into a healthy, happy person and I love it. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
