6
00:00:16,559 --> 00:00:20,320
r r oe dot net. Hello and good morning. How

7
00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:21,480
are you doing today, Sarah?

8
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,120
Speaker 2: I'm doing fantabulous. How about yourself?

9
00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 1: Man, if you use a word like that, that means

10
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:27,960
you've got to physically live it and spread it amongst

11
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:29,800
the people, because that's the kind of stuff that we

12
00:00:29,839 --> 00:00:30,920
need in this world right now.

13
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,799
Speaker 2: That energy a man to that man. Life is amazing.

14
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,719
I'm on like the nine hundred floor of the thirty

15
00:00:37,799 --> 00:00:40,920
rock building, Central Parks right behind me out the window

16
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,159
the Hudson Rivers out here. I'm just you know, constantly

17
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:46,520
being put into positions in life where I go, how

18
00:00:46,560 --> 00:00:49,479
do I get here? But? Man, am I thankful? Well?

19
00:00:49,520 --> 00:00:51,719
Speaker 1: I've always believed that you've been called to this because

20
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,200
there's something that we're all craving in life, and we

21
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,520
want to see our superhero be able to do something

22
00:00:56,520 --> 00:00:58,920
that we're capable of doing. But I think we're going

23
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:01,439
to live vicariously through you, so we can take those

24
00:01:01,479 --> 00:01:02,439
necessary steps.

25
00:01:04,159 --> 00:01:07,359
Speaker 2: Correct. Correct, So that's what I always said with WW

26
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:10,280
don't try this at home, but with everything on the menu,

27
00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,200
I want you to try everything on the menu.

28
00:01:14,719 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: How do you deal with that? Because you're right When

29
00:01:16,879 --> 00:01:18,719
it comes to a menu, I'll sit down with my

30
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:20,519
wife and family and they'll go, what are you having?

31
00:01:20,599 --> 00:01:24,000
And I don't know until they finally come around to me,

32
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:26,480
and I'll decide on the spot. What about you?

33
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,200
Speaker 2: So I one, I'm always like I order last, always

34
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:32,560
is when I go out to eat, because I like

35
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,280
listening to everybody. Two. But so the idea and the

36
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:39,280
premise behind the show. We do two restaurants every episode.

37
00:01:39,280 --> 00:01:42,239
The first restaurant is an iconic restaurant in the city.

38
00:01:42,280 --> 00:01:45,439
All all those restaurants are open forty to fifty sixty years.

39
00:01:46,799 --> 00:01:49,120
And then getting in there for their signature dish, getting

40
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,719
to hear the history behind it, why they've been in

41
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,799
business for so long, why the customer Stanford lines out

42
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,400
the door for hours, what keeps them coming back? Get

43
00:01:57,560 --> 00:01:59,480
me all the and then when you eat this food,

44
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,239
you're taking bites out of American history. You're talking like

45
00:02:02,599 --> 00:02:05,959
Ben's Chili Bowl in Washington, DC is sixty eight year establishment.

46
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,760
You take a bite out of that chili dog and

47
00:02:07,799 --> 00:02:10,199
it hasn't changed in sixty eight years. And so many

48
00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:13,199
of these restaurants and stuff like that that you're taking

49
00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:15,680
a bite out of history and hearing the backstory and

50
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:17,960
all that stuff is so much fun of getting to

51
00:02:18,039 --> 00:02:20,439
chalcol up with the owners, the customers, the chefs in

52
00:02:20,479 --> 00:02:23,080
the back, getting my hands dirty and stuff like that.

53
00:02:23,199 --> 00:02:25,560
So that's the first restaurant, and the second restaurant is

54
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:28,960
a hotspot up and coming restaurant talked about and we

55
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:31,080
vetted out a lot trying to find new restaurants that

56
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,080
happened been featured on programs and stuff, and exactly what

57
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,120
you said just a minute ago is the premise behind

58
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:39,719
the show. When you go to a restaurant, you're sitting around,

59
00:02:39,719 --> 00:02:41,840
you're watching people's food coming out, and you're like, man,

60
00:02:41,879 --> 00:02:44,319
that looks good. What a sheeting? That looks good? What's

61
00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:46,479
he got? Now there's a tray of food? Oh my goodness.

62
00:02:46,479 --> 00:02:48,919
You're looking at the menu. Everything looks so good that

63
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,360
you can't make up in your mind what you want

64
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,800
to eat. Well, I can't either, so I order everything

65
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:54,319
on the menu.

66
00:02:54,479 --> 00:02:56,879
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, Broun. What we've done now is that we'll

67
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,240
sit there and we'll order everything on the menu, and

68
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,639
then we'll sit there and you like tapus, and we'll

69
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,319
spread it amongst the everybody that's there, so that everybody

70
00:03:04,319 --> 00:03:06,400
can taste everything that's on everybody's plate.

71
00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,879
Speaker 2: That's such an awesome that's my favorite thing to do.

72
00:03:10,960 --> 00:03:14,520
I literally went and recreated my episode in Milwaukee this

73
00:03:14,560 --> 00:03:16,280
past week with a friend of mine that had never

74
00:03:16,319 --> 00:03:19,520
been to Lupi and Iris. It's a chef Adam Siegel.

75
00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:22,800
There is a James Beard Award winning chef and the

76
00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:25,280
exact same thing, family style. I was like, just bring

77
00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,680
it all out, just keep it coming so everybody can

78
00:03:27,719 --> 00:03:29,960
try a little bit of everything, because that's for me,

79
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,919
that's my favorite thing to do with my blessings. With

80
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:35,560
traveling the world with WW and getting to experience all

81
00:03:35,599 --> 00:03:38,759
the different walks of life in the culinary space and

82
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:42,240
learning along the way of different foods and trying different

83
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,840
foods and experimenting and experiencing different things. Is now taking

84
00:03:45,840 --> 00:03:47,960
people out to eat and getting them to step outside

85
00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,479
their comforts on try foods as they've never tried before

86
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,759
and opening their eyes to how amazing food really is.

87
00:03:54,800 --> 00:03:57,240
Because food's so special to me. I mean, food's a

88
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,280
love language. Food is an opportunity to bring people together

89
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,199
to the table for conversation, whether it's on food, on life,

90
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:06,319
on loving and laughing and everything else in between, and

91
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,280
then sitting down and enjoying a good meal, having a fat,

92
00:04:09,319 --> 00:04:12,319
happy belly, going home and you know, living and loving

93
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,680
life and that's what it's all about. And it really,

94
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,439
I think that really shines through in the show because

95
00:04:17,759 --> 00:04:21,040
the whole world seen Braunze Strowman, the Monster among Men

96
00:04:21,079 --> 00:04:25,040
for the last decade on WWE. This is unscripted, This

97
00:04:25,079 --> 00:04:28,600
is Adam Schaer in his rarest form raw form, and

98
00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:30,680
it's so cool that I have an opportunity to show

99
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,079
the world the man behind the monster. On top of

100
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:35,360
it as well, and the blessings that I have with

101
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:37,959
USA Network and the great relationship that I've had with

102
00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,720
them for over a decade and stuff and them believing

103
00:04:40,759 --> 00:04:42,800
in me and taking and yet another shot on me

104
00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:45,319
and giving me an opportunity to get out here and

105
00:04:45,399 --> 00:04:47,480
do more of what I love in life, and just

106
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,720
it is mind blowing how supportive they have been behind

107
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:54,480
this I get phone calls from friends and family. I've

108
00:04:54,519 --> 00:04:57,199
seen you fifteen different times on my televison on five

109
00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,519
different stages today and hearing the buzz that's behind in

110
00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:03,319
the excitement and stuff, and that's I just I hope

111
00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,800
people enjoy it as much as I enjoyed doing it,

112
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,800
because it really was a special eight weeks of my

113
00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:10,839
life filming this. It was a lot of work. It

114
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,720
was a lot of stress because four or five of

115
00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,879
those weeks when we were in Europe with WW. So

116
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,240
I'm flying to Europe to wrestle, I'm flying back to

117
00:05:17,240 --> 00:05:19,800
the United States to do everything on the menu, back

118
00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,560
and forth doing that. But I always say being busy

119
00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:24,959
is a blessing, and my life has been so busy

120
00:05:24,959 --> 00:05:28,040
and I'm so blessed that I take every opportunity. I

121
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,879
ask the Lord to wake me up every day, give

122
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:31,839
me a unity, and I want you the best to

123
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:32,759
make him happy.

124
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:36,759
Speaker 1: Dude, being in the WWE, you are a master at improv.

125
00:05:36,839 --> 00:05:39,680
Are you using those same skills inside those kitchens?

126
00:05:40,199 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 2: This is just all me at living having fun along

127
00:05:43,399 --> 00:05:46,600
the way, chalking it up with the locals, with the customers,

128
00:05:46,639 --> 00:05:49,759
with the chefs, and just bringing you know, love and

129
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:52,839
happiness to the table food's and opportunity to get people

130
00:05:52,879 --> 00:05:56,160
together for conversation, for catching up in life, for love

131
00:05:56,199 --> 00:05:59,000
and laughing and everything else in between. And there's so

132
00:05:59,199 --> 00:06:01,879
much of that aspect through all these episodes of Everything

133
00:06:01,920 --> 00:06:04,720
on the Menu in season one that I'm just so

134
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,240
proud of it and I'm so excited, and I hope

135
00:06:07,240 --> 00:06:09,480
the world loves it as much as I loved doing

136
00:06:09,519 --> 00:06:12,279
it because I had so much fun, and I'm so

137
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:15,519
grateful for USA Network and the amazing relationship that I've

138
00:06:15,519 --> 00:06:17,680
had with them for the last ten years of my life.

139
00:06:17,879 --> 00:06:20,240
And yet again then believing in me and giving me

140
00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,800
an opportunity to prove myself once again why I belong

141
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,319
on television and why I want to be here, and

142
00:06:26,319 --> 00:06:28,519
I want to keep putting smiles on people's faces.

143
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,639
Speaker 1: You've been pretty honest with your fans over the years.

144
00:06:31,639 --> 00:06:34,560
I mean, you have faced some big walls in your career,

145
00:06:34,959 --> 00:06:35,399
all right.

146
00:06:35,319 --> 00:06:37,879
Speaker 2: So it's funny to say that that. Honestly, the concept

147
00:06:37,879 --> 00:06:39,879
and the idea that came behind the show was one

148
00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:42,360
day I had a really bad neck injury in twenty

149
00:06:42,399 --> 00:06:44,279
twenty three, and I had to have my next fusday

150
00:06:44,319 --> 00:06:46,879
threw a metal plate and force screws in there, and

151
00:06:46,879 --> 00:06:48,040
I didn't know if I was ever going to be

152
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,959
able to wrestle, what kind of life I wasn't to have.

153
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:51,519
Could I go to the gym anymore? Am I going

154
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,399
to be able to still be the monster? But I

155
00:06:54,519 --> 00:06:56,800
wanted to still be able to figure out a way

156
00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,560
to put smiles on people's faces. So I was on

157
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:01,319
the phone with my agent, Nick and my friend Kevin,

158
00:07:01,319 --> 00:07:04,240
who's the producer of the show, and we're chalking up ideas,

159
00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:06,160
and I don't know we were talking about some of

160
00:07:06,160 --> 00:07:07,959
the were picking on me or whatever about how when

161
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:10,079
I go out to eat, I'll order two, three four

162
00:07:10,279 --> 00:07:12,560
entrees when I go out to eat, one because I'm hungry,

163
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:16,079
I'm a growing boy, and two because I've been so

164
00:07:16,199 --> 00:07:18,360
blessed with WWE that I got to travel around the

165
00:07:18,399 --> 00:07:21,040
world and I got to experience so many different walks

166
00:07:21,079 --> 00:07:24,759
of life and in the culinary space that it's hard

167
00:07:24,759 --> 00:07:26,240
for me now when I go out to eat, because

168
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,279
I see so many different things that I want to

169
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:30,800
try that I've even never tried before. It's something that

170
00:07:30,839 --> 00:07:32,680
I like, or they've done a different spin on a

171
00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,600
dish that's a favorite of mine, and so I'm always

172
00:07:35,639 --> 00:07:37,560
been a big eater. And then we were joking around

173
00:07:37,600 --> 00:07:38,720
and I said that I was like, yeah, half the

174
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:40,079
time I go out and I look at these menus,

175
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,120
honestly wish I could just order everything on the menu.

176
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:44,879
And it kind of was going, wait a second, and

177
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:46,800
we came up with the idea. We shot a pilot

178
00:07:46,839 --> 00:07:50,319
episode in Key waskin Wisconsin at a place called the

179
00:07:50,319 --> 00:07:52,600
Great Outdoor Supper Club. Of course I had to go

180
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:54,920
there because they have a ninety six ounce prime rib

181
00:07:54,959 --> 00:07:57,439
on the menu, which was hilarious because I just picked

182
00:07:57,480 --> 00:07:59,279
it up and started eating it like a whole loaf

183
00:07:59,279 --> 00:08:02,600
of bread, and then started sending it out to see

184
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,120
if anybody would be interested in working with us buying

185
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,399
and whatnot, and lo, all the powers to being a

186
00:08:07,519 --> 00:08:10,800
USA network saw it and the relationship that we've had,

187
00:08:10,839 --> 00:08:13,240
and they said, you know what, let's let's give it

188
00:08:13,279 --> 00:08:16,279
a go. And we did eight episodes for season one

189
00:08:16,399 --> 00:08:20,920
from Washington, d C, Orlando, Tampa, New Orleans, Las Vegas

190
00:08:20,959 --> 00:08:26,120
for Worst, Chicago, and Milwaukee. And I'm so very proud

191
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:29,319
of this. USA Network has blown my mind with the

192
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,200
support that's behind this. I get phone calls daily from

193
00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,960
people friends and family. They've seen me fifteen times on

194
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,879
their television on five different channels throughout the day. So

195
00:08:38,919 --> 00:08:42,279
it's amazing to see the support that USA Network has

196
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,399
going with the support that the fans have, and I'm

197
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:46,720
just so excited for this premiere this Friday.

198
00:08:47,399 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 1: Please do not move. There's more with Wwees bron Stroumman

199
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:55,360
coming up next. The name of the show on the

200
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:59,200
USA Network. Everything on the menu. We are back with

201
00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,679
bron Strom. I tell you, I tell you. One of

202
00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:03,840
my favorite parts is the fact that you make cleaning

203
00:09:03,879 --> 00:09:06,679
a plate very fun. Is that pretty much high priority

204
00:09:06,720 --> 00:09:07,279
on your list?

205
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 2: Oh, there's so many fun things throughout the episodes where

206
00:09:10,320 --> 00:09:12,840
there's kids coming by and I'm letting them grab food

207
00:09:12,879 --> 00:09:15,320
off the table, and you know, I'm trying to clean

208
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:16,960
my place as much as I can. I'm like, hey,

209
00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:19,200
come give me a hand and stuff. And that's one

210
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,480
of my favorite things about the opportunities that I've had

211
00:09:21,519 --> 00:09:24,039
about traveling. Experienced so many different walks of life and

212
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,759
food as I love taking people out to eat and

213
00:09:26,799 --> 00:09:29,440
getting them to experience new food, to try different things

214
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,320
and step out of their comfort zones of what they

215
00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:36,559
normally eat because it's life so shortly. It's all about experiences,

216
00:09:36,639 --> 00:09:39,559
and man, food is it's such an experience of, like

217
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:42,919
I said, being able to bring people together and rekindling

218
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,080
relationships and catching up and talking about the food and

219
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:49,720
everything else in between. So it really shines in showcases

220
00:09:49,879 --> 00:09:52,120
like the family aspect. I was so blessed to do

221
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:55,120
an episode in Milwaukee and got to have my family

222
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:57,600
be there. I got to share the screen with my goddaughter,

223
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,720
which is very very special and like that for me

224
00:10:00,759 --> 00:10:02,720
because I missed out on a lot of stuff like

225
00:10:02,759 --> 00:10:05,799
that in life with being a WW superstar. While it's

226
00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:08,240
such a blessing and the career that I had, you know,

227
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,559
you're so busy on the road and you miss out

228
00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:12,919
on a lot of stuff. So I have this proverbial

229
00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:16,720
opportunity right now to stop and smell the roses, you know,

230
00:10:16,759 --> 00:10:19,840
and I appreciate and realize what a career that I had,

231
00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:22,960
what a mark I left on the business and change

232
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:24,799
what it means to be a big man in the business.

233
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,320
And now I'm going to try and do it in

234
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,240
the food space and stuff like that. Another you know,

235
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:32,600
people always ask me what wrestlers I watched and who

236
00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:34,039
I wanted to be like. And I said, I never

237
00:10:34,080 --> 00:10:36,080
watched any wrestlers, as I never wanted to be any

238
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:38,320
other wrestlers. I wanted to be the first Bronze Trowman

239
00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:40,639
and noiwh this is an opportunity in the food spaces.

240
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,559
I get to be the first atom share and show

241
00:10:42,919 --> 00:10:44,840
the world a different side of the monster.

242
00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:47,960
Speaker 1: There's no limitations when it comes to food on this show.

243
00:10:48,039 --> 00:10:50,159
And I think about it is that it also includes

244
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,039
some good southern soul food.

245
00:10:52,639 --> 00:10:55,519
Speaker 2: No, definitely a great food space. Definitely too. Check out

246
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,720
Who's and Oh's was the restaurant that I did there.

247
00:10:57,840 --> 00:11:02,080
Unbelievable Southern soul food. Very special to me. The very

248
00:11:02,080 --> 00:11:03,919
first job I ever had in my life was at

249
00:11:03,919 --> 00:11:06,879
a restaurant just like that, busting tables, doing the dishes

250
00:11:06,919 --> 00:11:09,039
that I got to be the fry cook and stuff

251
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,039
like that. So getting in the kitchen and seeing that,

252
00:11:11,279 --> 00:11:15,000
and for me, food is like music. There's certain foods

253
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,799
and certain music that trigger memories for me. And it

254
00:11:17,879 --> 00:11:19,919
was really cool to be back in that kitchen and

255
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:24,799
realizing how full circle my life has become. With washing

256
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,320
my homeble dishes and my homble beginning as a twelve

257
00:11:27,399 --> 00:11:29,960
year old at the local restaurant for four dollars an hour.

258
00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:33,279
Now back on my own television show, back in the kitchen,

259
00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:36,600
with having that nostalgia of what I did as a childhood,

260
00:11:36,600 --> 00:11:39,799
It's just a constant, you know, pinching myself of how

261
00:11:39,919 --> 00:11:41,039
is this real? Now?

262
00:11:41,039 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 1: Brian? What do you do in this situation? You and

263
00:11:42,759 --> 00:11:45,480
I both have spent a lot of time inside that ring.

264
00:11:45,519 --> 00:11:47,480
I'm a third done in martial arts. I've been in

265
00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:49,720
those matches. You've been in a lot of matches. When

266
00:11:49,759 --> 00:11:52,399
you sit down at that menu, you can't help but

267
00:11:52,519 --> 00:11:54,039
look at that menu and say, I can't have that.

268
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,879
It's going to make my legs hurt, that my body's

269
00:11:55,879 --> 00:11:57,679
going to react. I'm going to have shoulder aches because

270
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,679
of this. How do you deal with those where the

271
00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,080
food food attacks the body that you have built?

272
00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:07,960
Speaker 2: So I prepare myself for these. I'm a big strict

273
00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:09,919
eater most of the time of my life. I will

274
00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:14,240
go two three weeks at a time eating everything way

275
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,679
out to the ground with baked fish and chicken and

276
00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,960
ground beef and rice. And my day to day diet

277
00:12:20,039 --> 00:12:23,840
is seven thousand is calories. I'm eating around six pounds

278
00:12:23,919 --> 00:12:27,360
of chicken, like sixteen cups of rice, a bag of

279
00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:33,360
spinach of five to ten tablespoons olibul, a dozen eggs. Oh,

280
00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:36,559
this is the mundane eating that goes into being a

281
00:12:36,639 --> 00:12:39,519
monster like me and stuff. This is the opportunity to also,

282
00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:42,399
this is the ultimate cheat meal show for all these

283
00:12:42,399 --> 00:12:45,159
people that are dieting, the bodybuilders and stuff that need

284
00:12:45,200 --> 00:12:47,279
to live by Caresley and have a moment to go

285
00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:49,759
wow or to figure out what's what do you want

286
00:12:49,799 --> 00:12:52,159
to do when they break their you know, their diet

287
00:12:52,279 --> 00:12:55,679
or their fast and stuff. So I definitely prepare myself

288
00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:57,320
for it that way. And then also too when I

289
00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,240
when I do these big pigouts, I'll fast for twenty

290
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:03,440
six to twenty four to thirty six hours afterwards. Again,

291
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,799
then make sure I get a real rigorous workout in

292
00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:09,320
so I've earned my next meal. I'm big on earning

293
00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:15,759
these meals, So I prepare myself like what was it, Oh, yesterday,

294
00:13:15,799 --> 00:13:18,159
for example, I had to do an interview at Beefy King,

295
00:13:18,200 --> 00:13:20,919
one of the restaurants that I did in the series

296
00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,480
in Orlando, and I knew I wanted to eat the

297
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:25,279
roast beef sandwich as while I was there, so I

298
00:13:25,279 --> 00:13:27,000
went to the gym before hid I did an hour

299
00:13:27,039 --> 00:13:30,000
a cardios, so I haven't earned that deal. So there's

300
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:32,360
times in life when food is so good, I'll deal

301
00:13:32,399 --> 00:13:35,159
with the aches and pains with my arthrightis and the

302
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,240
crap that I've done to my body is being at

303
00:13:37,240 --> 00:13:40,240
the WW Superstars. At the end of the day, sometimes

304
00:13:40,279 --> 00:13:44,000
those mouth smiles and watering lips are worth the ache

305
00:13:44,039 --> 00:13:44,559
and knees.

306
00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 1: Where can people go to find out more about everything

307
00:13:47,639 --> 00:13:50,240
that you're doing because you have made a big investment

308
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,879
in community as well as food, and that to me

309
00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:54,960
is a high place on the charts.

310
00:13:56,399 --> 00:14:00,159
Speaker 2: That's honestly, one of the biggest reasons why I can

311
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,360
you to push myself in life is at the end

312
00:14:02,399 --> 00:14:04,759
of the day, I was very, very blessed with my

313
00:14:04,919 --> 00:14:07,519
WW career in all Honestly, I could probably kick my

314
00:14:07,600 --> 00:14:09,600
feed up and wait for God to call my number

315
00:14:09,639 --> 00:14:12,799
to come home. But I realized that I'm so blessed

316
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:16,720
one with my physical stature, but there's something inside of

317
00:14:16,759 --> 00:14:20,120
me that God gave me that I realized that I'm

318
00:14:20,159 --> 00:14:23,320
good at putting smiles on people's faces, and I continually

319
00:14:23,639 --> 00:14:26,159
want to do that. I continually want to push myself

320
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:28,639
and have opportunities to go out and make money because

321
00:14:28,639 --> 00:14:31,360
I realized that these money that I make and these

322
00:14:31,399 --> 00:14:33,679
things that I can do for other people is really

323
00:14:33,679 --> 00:14:36,240
what fills my heart. Like don't get me wrong, all

324
00:14:36,279 --> 00:14:38,960
the cool cars and crap that I have of you know,

325
00:14:39,039 --> 00:14:41,360
I'm this giant thirteen year old that tripped and fell

326
00:14:41,399 --> 00:14:44,679
into more money than he probably deserves. But the opportunity

327
00:14:44,919 --> 00:14:47,519
my fans and stuff like that as well any charity

328
00:14:47,559 --> 00:14:49,919
event that I do that come out and drove to support.

329
00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,879
I just did a big fundraiser in the little town

330
00:14:52,919 --> 00:14:55,440
that I live in, Wisconsin. We raised ten thousand dollars

331
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:58,320
in a day for the Damn and Be Repaired. Had

332
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:02,240
an awesome time. I have a tequila brand now that's

333
00:15:02,279 --> 00:15:06,279
my retirement project is Ktleisa, So I was pouring out

334
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:09,519
free samples of that, bringing awareness to that and stuff

335
00:15:09,559 --> 00:15:12,399
like that. So we just got involved with EDC Orlando

336
00:15:12,879 --> 00:15:15,279
with my tequila brand as well. So being able to

337
00:15:15,320 --> 00:15:19,159
do that, I've almost got my nonprofit finished up right now.

338
00:15:19,159 --> 00:15:21,720
So I'm working on a nonprofit called Share the Love

339
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:25,679
with my last name Adam. Shared is to provide sporting

340
00:15:25,679 --> 00:15:29,320
good equipment to rural area kids, because I remember growing

341
00:15:29,399 --> 00:15:32,600
up in cheryls Ford, North Carolina, little hoe dunk out

342
00:15:32,639 --> 00:15:34,960
in the country playing pee wee football. I had to

343
00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,080
take my helmet off to give to another kid so

344
00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:39,600
he could go in and play defense and stuff like that.

345
00:15:39,639 --> 00:15:42,480
And I think about what an impact it would have

346
00:15:42,639 --> 00:15:45,360
meant to that five year old kid of me at

347
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,600
that time, of somebody like myself now where I am

348
00:15:48,639 --> 00:15:51,559
in life, showed up to my school and hand delivered

349
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:54,519
sporting good equipments of what it could do because I

350
00:15:54,639 --> 00:15:57,120
was a troubled youth and stuff like that and figured

351
00:15:57,159 --> 00:15:59,399
it out their life and seeing you know, I hate

352
00:15:59,399 --> 00:16:02,159
calling myself celebrity because I think celebrities are butt heads

353
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:07,440
and stuff like that. But having this amazing career platform

354
00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,879
that I have and showing up face to face and

355
00:16:09,919 --> 00:16:13,279
doing stuff like that maybe changing some kid's mind of going, man,

356
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:15,320
I don't know what I'm doing and he meets me

357
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,000
and goes, you know what, That's what I want to do.

358
00:16:17,039 --> 00:16:18,320
I want to be able to do that when I

359
00:16:18,320 --> 00:16:20,600
grow up. And that's what life's about. The trickle effect,

360
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:23,639
the snowball ef. I'm so big with the youth and

361
00:16:23,679 --> 00:16:26,679
stuff like that, because one you make the kids your fans.

362
00:16:26,679 --> 00:16:28,799
They're your fans for your whole life. They support you

363
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:32,679
along the way, and the world is so screwed up. Now,

364
00:16:32,759 --> 00:16:35,639
why continue to in the path of so many of

365
00:16:35,679 --> 00:16:39,159
these influence and celebrities that you know not necessarily have

366
00:16:39,919 --> 00:16:43,600
the best intentions for anyone but theirselves. I've been blessed

367
00:16:43,639 --> 00:16:45,440
in life. I didn't get where I'm in life on

368
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,120
my own. I had people help me out of the way,

369
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:48,960
and now it's my turn to turn around and pull

370
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:50,919
the next kid up out of the mud into success

371
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:51,360
in life.

372
00:16:51,519 --> 00:16:53,759
Speaker 1: Wow, time goes by so quickly that we don't have

373
00:16:53,840 --> 00:16:55,240

374
00:16:55,279 --> 00:16:57,879

380
00:17:09,279 --> 00:17:12,319
