It 23 00:00:56.119 --> 00:00:58.640 was actually funny. A friend from high school. He was like, hey, man, 24 00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:00.439 a guy that never smokes, kind of. 25 00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:02.880 Like what they call a chad Okay, what is a chad. 26 00:01:03.200 --> 00:01:06.480 Chad is like it's a person that's coming into the 27 00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:09.079 weed industry that doesn't really a familiar with the culture 28 00:01:09.079 --> 00:01:11.920 of weed, but they're coming in kind of for the money, right, 29 00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:14.680 just to kind of make a profit. So he was 30 00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:16.879 kind of a Chad in high school, never smoked, didn't 31 00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:19.239 know anything about the weed culture. Brought me on as 32 00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:23.760 like a sales manager, and yeah, I learned from twenty 33 00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:27.799 nineteen to probably twenty twenty two about and yeah, I 34 00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:30.560 learned a lot in the cannabis industry and being a stoner. 35 00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:32.799 It was like a lot of fun. I was definitely 36 00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:35.439 the test dummy and the guinea pig for a lot 37 00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:36.480 of sure. 38 00:01:36.560 --> 00:01:39.959 That was fun. Oh yeah, a lot of high nights. 39 00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:44.280 Very very I mean, the body is crazy because cannabis. 40 00:01:44.280 --> 00:01:46.959 I didn't know that you could absorb it through your skin. 41 00:01:47.079 --> 00:01:48.920 I mean, I guess if I really thought about it, 42 00:01:48.959 --> 00:01:50.760 you can. You could absorb other things of your skin. 43 00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:54.280 But I've gotten a couple high a couple of times. 44 00:01:54.840 --> 00:01:55.799 The chemists. 45 00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.000 Yeah, the chemist would be like, Okay, don't touch this. 46 00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:01.640 I seriously almost like daring me too, you know, and 47 00:02:01.680 --> 00:02:03.879 you're like what this I'm like I'm just going to 48 00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:06.239 get really high if I touched this, so I would 49 00:02:06.319 --> 00:02:08.840 do it. And then yeah, I ended up just like 50 00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:14.120 comotoast on the ground like I can't even explain it 51 00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:16.240 out of it. Yeah, and the whole time thinking I'm 52 00:02:16.280 --> 00:02:18.400 gonna die, but I know that you're not going to die. 53 00:02:18.439 --> 00:02:20.000 It's just like a thing really. 54 00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:21.599 Over annoyed or paranoid. 55 00:02:23.319 --> 00:02:24.240 So I survived. 56 00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:26.840 So do you think that you know, you having a 57 00:02:26.879 --> 00:02:30.639 fighting background, do you think that the benefits of CBD 58 00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:33.759 and THHD is beneficial in that area as well, or 59 00:02:33.759 --> 00:02:35.759 do you think that you know, the drug testing for 60 00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:37.240 that is should be in protocol or do you think 61 00:02:37.280 --> 00:02:38.520 that it should be lifted. 62 00:02:39.120 --> 00:02:44.840 No, it's the World Doping Agency and also California Athletic Commission, 63 00:02:44.879 --> 00:02:48.159 Nevada State Athletic Commission, all the big commissions. CBD is 64 00:02:48.199 --> 00:02:52.879 totally illegal even THHC in California and Nevada. But you 65 00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:56.159 can only have a certain amount of metabolites. So basically 66 00:02:56.159 --> 00:02:58.560 you just can't smoke right before the fight. I can't 67 00:02:58.560 --> 00:02:59.960 be a higher in the fight. They don't want that, 68 00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:03.400 but they they're all for it for you know, recovery, 69 00:03:03.919 --> 00:03:05.360 for just was. 70 00:03:05.319 --> 00:03:08.919 It something in your regimen that while you were fighting, Yeah, 71 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:10.240 that you practice. 72 00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:11.080 Yeah, smoking weed? 73 00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:13.879 Yes, yeah, yes, because some people before back then, you know, 74 00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:15.759 it was like very tabooed as you know, to admit 75 00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:17.520 to those things. But again, like more and more the 76 00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:19.400 rules are being lifted and being you know, the seeing 77 00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:21.919 the effects from even like the positive sides of your 78 00:03:21.960 --> 00:03:24.280 body and the recovery things. You know. So it's like, 79 00:03:25.240 --> 00:03:26.919 was it something that you you know, being the po 80 00:03:27.039 --> 00:03:28.960 headstone or that you were before. Is it something that 81 00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:31.639 you already dabbled in so you knew that those things 82 00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:32.960 and you just kind of did it yourself. 83 00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:37.960 Yeah, yeah, I think it's I got some injuries over 84 00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:40.120 time when I was like I'm thirty five now, so 85 00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:42.479 about ten years ago when I was like really actively fighting, 86 00:03:42.680 --> 00:03:45.560 I got some injuries and they would always prescribe me 87 00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.680 like pain medicine and stuff. But that like during when 88 00:03:48.719 --> 00:03:51.439 you're training for fights, it makes you like constipated all 89 00:03:51.439 --> 00:03:54.479 these different things. It fucks with your hormone. So I 90 00:03:54.960 --> 00:03:57.159 was kind of against it, and then I had to 91 00:03:57.240 --> 00:03:59.199 kind of scare with weed when I was young, and 92 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:00.800 I didn't want to mess with But then I came 93 00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:02.039 back to it. I'm like, you know let me try 94 00:04:02.080 --> 00:04:06.879 an edible, let me test the waters, and yeah, I 95 00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:07.800 started liking it. 96 00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:10.120 Is it something that you have in your everyday life now? 97 00:04:10.479 --> 00:04:12.360 Because the wor you do? So how many times do 98 00:04:12.360 --> 00:04:14.120 you would do you more smoke things? Or do you 99 00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:16.519 are you an edible person or the topicals? 100 00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:19.360 No? I do. So I have a CVD cream that 101 00:04:19.600 --> 00:04:23.480 so Elite Garden is my company, Elite Garden CBD and 102 00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:25.480 so I use they have like a I got to 103 00:04:25.519 --> 00:04:27.439 give you something. It's like a tiger bomb and like 104 00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:31.079 any bumps bruises way better than adavill anything like pain relief, 105 00:04:31.519 --> 00:04:34.120 but it will really help. Like so like whenever I 106 00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:36.920 have something that's bothering my low back sometimes bugs me 107 00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:39.639 or something with my legs, then that's like the perfect 108 00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:41.920 thing to you is aw But I still I smoke 109 00:04:41.959 --> 00:04:44.160 cannabis daily. You know, I smoke out of a bong 110 00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:49.079 and I also smoke well, I do these spaces and friends, 111 00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:50.800 you see me on the space as I take a 112 00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.800 bong rip. People in crypto and NFTs love weed. So 113 00:04:53.839 --> 00:04:55.800 like when I came into the NFT industry, they. 114 00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:57.720 Were like, oh, we love this guy, excepting yeah. 115 00:04:57.519 --> 00:04:59.279 Fighter, he likes weed, likes crypto. 116 00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:01.720 Like, yeah, I feel like in a sense it kind 117 00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:03.160 of go hand in hand with when of those things, 118 00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:05.439 when the things that are so complex or whatever, you 119 00:05:05.519 --> 00:05:07.680 need something to kind of like, you know, just ease 120 00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:10.160 your sale into it. Like myself is like I have 121 00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:12.279 high anxiety, but I don't something that likes to take 122 00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:15.279 pills or anything like that. So I've smoked weed throughout 123 00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:17.720 my career. So it's like because it's just I can 124 00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:19.879 control when I want to stop, you know, do things. 125 00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:22.319 And then as things advance more in time, like you said, 126 00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:24.839 like the topical things, when I danced in those things 127 00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:27.319 at the time, I would use those for my body 128 00:05:27.319 --> 00:05:29.600 and it was just such like a pleasure to have 129 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:32.399 not to take a bunch of ibuprofen or all these 130 00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:35.199 things that really kind of just like muted the situation 131 00:05:35.279 --> 00:05:37.680 but didn't help the situation. So I think that it's 132 00:05:37.720 --> 00:05:39.759 really cool more people like yourself are getting you know, 133 00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:42.040 all these companies from CBD and kind of really tapping 134 00:05:42.079 --> 00:05:44.800 into the educational part of it and also like showing 135 00:05:44.839 --> 00:05:47.160 that you can have athletes have it and every day 136 00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:50.439 people have it, and you know nowadays, you know, in Vegas, 137 00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:52.920 we had the show sponsored or my podcast sponsored in 138 00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:55.720 Vegas in January, and they talked about the whole like 139 00:05:55.839 --> 00:05:58.480 educational purpose that where it's like even elderly people every 140 00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:01.360 like there they have a bus for the senior citizen thing. 141 00:06:01.399 --> 00:06:03.240 Every week they come by and get their medicine. So 142 00:06:03.279 --> 00:06:05.000 it's like, you know, just it just helps. So I 143 00:06:05.000 --> 00:06:07.319 feel like, you know, it's just weed, let's all smoke it. 144 00:06:07.480 --> 00:06:09.959 You know, I'm sad we can't smoke together. We'll just 145 00:06:10.000 --> 00:06:10.879 have to do. 146 00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:14.720 That after another time for sure. But I'm definitely just 147 00:06:14.759 --> 00:06:17.920 like super bullish on weed. I just think it's good 148 00:06:17.920 --> 00:06:19.639 in so many different ways. I think you just think 149 00:06:19.680 --> 00:06:22.519 there's a big stigma. When I was younger, like my 150 00:06:22.600 --> 00:06:24.439 dad smoked weed and he's kind of a drunk. So 151 00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:26.319 I was like, oh, I never want to smoke. It's horrible. 152 00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:28.240 So I thought that for most of my life. And then, 153 00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:30.199 like I said, when I was like twenty five, I 154 00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:33.079 started messing with edibles and smoking, and I thought, oh 155 00:06:33.120 --> 00:06:35.240 my god, Like I almost felt like somebody was hiding 156 00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:37.680 it from him. And it was like this natural pain 157 00:06:37.720 --> 00:06:40.519 relief and even like happy medicine because I smoke it. 158 00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.199 Did you watch movies to train pretty much everything I do. 159 00:06:43.360 --> 00:06:45.920 So you know you're regimen of like the sativa, the hybrid, 160 00:06:45.959 --> 00:06:47.879 the indica or do you smoke what strand do you 161 00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:50.600 smoke more heavily than there's I'm. 162 00:06:50.480 --> 00:06:53.639 Such a heavy smoker that I smoke a lot of Indica. Okay, yeah, 163 00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:57.600 all right, So but not like I don't like hazes 164 00:06:57.759 --> 00:07:04.800 or glues because kind of make you stuck. Yeah. Yeah, 165 00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:07.040 there's like certain cushes that I like a lot, if 166 00:07:07.040 --> 00:07:09.040 that makes sense, Like push you'll bring you up, and 167 00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:11.399 by the time my workout's done, I'm crashing. It's fine. 168 00:07:11.439 --> 00:07:14.480 I could take a nap, okay, I like that. Describe 169 00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:16.360 something that's exciting in your life right now. 170 00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:20.720 Describe something that's exciting. I just moved to Vegas, Okay, 171 00:07:20.759 --> 00:07:23.759 so I've kind of fought in and out of Vegas 172 00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:26.319 since like two thousand and nine, so I know the 173 00:07:26.360 --> 00:07:28.399 town well. I have a lot of fighter friends there. 174 00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:30.759 It's like a healthy lifestyle for me. I don't drink 175 00:07:30.800 --> 00:07:33.879 at all, so I just smoke. And there's weed twenty 176 00:07:33.920 --> 00:07:36.519 four hours a day everywhere in Vegas. It's crazy because 177 00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:40.000 Vegas used to be like no weed, Like we're totally 178 00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:43.279 against it. We're gonna throw you in the jail like nothing. 179 00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:45.279 I've definitely been kicked out of some places because of 180 00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:48.079 weed smoking. Now it's like acceptable. 181 00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:51.680 I smoked my pen all throughout the casinos on the streets. Yeah, 182 00:07:51.879 --> 00:07:54.480 cops pull me over, I'm speeding and they say your 183 00:07:54.519 --> 00:07:55.240 carsonals like weed. 184 00:07:55.279 --> 00:07:55.600 Watch that. 185 00:07:55.639 --> 00:07:58.480 They just say, watched that and let me go. It's 186 00:07:58.519 --> 00:07:59.720 just it's different. How is that? 187 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:01.959 How does that feel coming from an era when that 188 00:08:02.040 --> 00:08:04.399 before it wasn't so like accepting where it's like if 189 00:08:04.439 --> 00:08:06.079 the cops pulled you over, you could go like, what 190 00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:07.639 is that feeling now?

I recently got pulled over 198 00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:25.560 just from like I was like speeding. I changed lanes 199 00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:28.160 real quick. The cop was so nice that in Vegas 200 00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.160 he literally gave me a warning and like mentioned something 201 00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:33.600 about martial arts. He saw my ear or something. He's like, oh, 202 00:08:33.639 --> 00:08:35.960 you do martial arts, and then I was like, wow, 203 00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:38.320 this is like the best cop interaction I've ever had. 204 00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:40.399 Nice so Vegas where it's at for you, it's all 205 00:08:40.399 --> 00:08:41.159 it's all working out. 206 00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:43.039 Well, yeah, it's working on well. But I love California. 207 00:08:43.039 --> 00:08:45.840 I grew up here. I used to live right next 208 00:08:45.840 --> 00:08:48.639 to Sean in Orange County. Okay, my best friend Sewan 209 00:08:48.639 --> 00:08:52.360 over there. But uh yeah, yeah. 210 00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:53.559 What would you say is unique about you? 211 00:08:55.200 --> 00:09:00.320 What's unique about me? That's interesting? I get stumped these 212 00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:02.600 like self questions where I have to think about you. 213 00:09:02.600 --> 00:09:04.519 Said to you earlier you didn't like talking about yourself. 214 00:09:04.559 --> 00:09:06.320 But you know, this, Miss Texas is going to get 215 00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:08.080 you know, dig in a little bit deeper. You know, 216 00:09:08.159 --> 00:09:09.879 you said that we didn't know each other. That's why 217 00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:11.840 it's called private talk because at the end of this 218 00:09:11.879 --> 00:09:13.120 we're going to get to know each other a little 219 00:09:13.159 --> 00:09:13.559 bit more. 220 00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:15.919 Yes, it's going to go deeper. 221 00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:19.480 Go deeper, you know, and nothing's wrong with going deeper. Okay, yeah, 222 00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.440 so yeah, it could be anything from you know, your 223 00:09:22.480 --> 00:09:26.240 personality to you know, what you bring to the fighting world, 224 00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:29.080 what you know anything I would say it stands out. 225 00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:32.840 I really started I don't know. I'm still training a 226 00:09:32.840 --> 00:09:35.039 lot myself and focusing on my own fights and stuff, 227 00:09:35.080 --> 00:09:37.279 but I've taken a little bit of a backseat. Being 228 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:40.600 in Vegas. I can manage fighters and just trying to 229 00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:42.879 Like I'm thirty five now, I keep saying that, but 230 00:09:43.039 --> 00:09:45.519 like when I started fighting, I was eighteen. So I've 231 00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:47.919 learned a lot in the MMA industry and I've learned 232 00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:49.799 a lot in the fight game. So I feel like 233 00:09:49.840 --> 00:09:51.159 I have a lot of knowledge to pass to the 234 00:09:51.279 --> 00:09:54.799 younger guys and just like keep people on point because 235 00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:57.519 a lot of fighters like it's a it's a real 236 00:09:57.559 --> 00:09:59.840 individual sport, but then it has to be a team 237 00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:02.120 it too, because you need your coach, you need your 238 00:10:02.120 --> 00:10:04.200 weight guy, You need people to kind of check up 239 00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:06.240 on you, like are you on weight, are you training enough? 240 00:10:06.519 --> 00:10:09.679 Do you need to train a little less? You just, yeah, 241 00:10:09.720 --> 00:10:12.639 holding them accountable and also being there to like support them, 242 00:10:12.720 --> 00:10:13.679 so more. 243 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:14.639 Of like the mentor role. 244 00:10:14.720 --> 00:10:16.759 Yeah, with all the knowledge of managing too. So I'm 245 00:10:16.759 --> 00:10:19.039 trying to get them sponsors and then trying to get 246 00:10:19.039 --> 00:10:19.639 them fights. 247 00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:22.840 And do you have a fight coming up yourself that 248 00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:24.879 you're training for or are you just kind of primarily 249 00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:26.279 managing people right now, I'm. 250 00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:28.639 Just managing people. Yeah, kind of focused on that. At 251 00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:30.000 the end of the year, I've been doing a lot 252 00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:32.799 of Muay Thai. I'm like real obsessed with that right now. Okay, 253 00:10:32.840 --> 00:10:34.919 So I've been just enjoying that. I went to Tuloom 254 00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:37.720 for a couple of weeks, I was training down there nice, 255 00:10:37.840 --> 00:10:39.720 and then I was training in La Here for a 256 00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:41.840 little bit, and I obviously train a lot in Vegas. 257 00:10:42.440 --> 00:10:45.080 So I think an interesting thing about me right now 258 00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:46.720 is I'm managing professional fighters. 259 00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:47.240 Nice. 260 00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:50.600 Yeah, it's like being in with the fights without having 261 00:10:50.639 --> 00:10:51.559 to be the actual fighter. 262 00:10:51.840 --> 00:10:53.240 I love that though. I think that, like you said, 263 00:10:53.279 --> 00:10:55.360 you know, it is such an individual sport, but a 264 00:10:55.399 --> 00:10:57.559 lot of people like try to like hold on to 265 00:10:57.799 --> 00:10:59.879 like their secrets or their gems and stuff, where it's 266 00:10:59.879 --> 00:11:02.639 like I think the more progression of like being more 267 00:11:02.679 --> 00:11:05.159 in depth in the field is like sharing your knowledge 268 00:11:05.159 --> 00:11:06.759 of what you know and they can add to themselves 269 00:11:06.799 --> 00:11:07.200 as well. 270 00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:10.000 Yeah. Yeah, it's both. It's a team and an individual sport. 271 00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:12.559 And I think guys just think it's a team sports 272 00:11:12.600 --> 00:11:15.240 me versus you know, but it is a team sport. 273 00:11:16.080 --> 00:11:17.679 Oh you need your guys there. You know you need 274 00:11:17.759 --> 00:11:20.440 you need your your people for you, you know, moral 275 00:11:20.480 --> 00:11:22.679 support plus training your back. 276 00:11:23.840 --> 00:11:27.000 Is there anything that you regret saying no to that 277 00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:28.879 you could go back and maybe say yes. 278 00:11:29.679 --> 00:11:31.559 Like in the fight game or life and in. 279 00:11:31.480 --> 00:11:33.159 Life in general. It could be with the fighting, it 280 00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:35.000 could be life, it could be anything. 281 00:11:36.960 --> 00:11:38.879 I think if I had to say notice something, I 282 00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:40.200 would have said no to college. 283 00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:41.919 You would have said no to college. 284 00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:44.240 Yeah, I think I wasted time. I went to Northridge 285 00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:48.519 here and can State Northridge over in seasun so like 286 00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:50.720 the valley. But I think if I would have just 287 00:11:50.759 --> 00:11:53.039 focused on fighting, I would have been a way different 288 00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:56.960 spot versus kind of like trying to do college and 289 00:11:56.960 --> 00:11:59.519 then trying to fight and then kind of juggling that. 290 00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:00.919 What were you going to school for? 291 00:12:01.000 --> 00:12:02.240 Him? Nursing? 292 00:12:02.440 --> 00:12:05.159 Nursing? Do you have a passion in that any longer? 293 00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:06.919 Would you ever go back and kind of dabble again? 294 00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:08.480 Are you? I? 295 00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:10.639 Like, I like to take care of people and stuff, 296 00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:12.799 And that's what that's what it was about. When I 297 00:12:12.840 --> 00:12:14.480 was younger, I got on a lot of street fights 298 00:12:14.480 --> 00:12:17.440 and I got stabbed. So the male nurse that like 299 00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:19.159 sewed me up and we had this talk, you know, 300 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:21.440 I was only fifteen, and he's like, yeah. 301 00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:22.080 I'm mean a mail nurse. 302 00:12:22.080 --> 00:12:24.480 And he was like buff and he's like, I work 303 00:12:24.519 --> 00:12:26.639 out a lot and I travel and I get paid 304 00:12:26.639 --> 00:12:28.559 a lot. So that was my first thought. I'm like, 305 00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:29.759 all right, that's what I want to do. I'll just 306 00:12:29.799 --> 00:12:32.279 be like a fighter, traveling male nurse guy. And then 307 00:12:32.320 --> 00:12:34.159 he's like, oh, there's tons of ladies because you'll be 308 00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:36.200 the only male. And there was a lot of perks 309 00:12:36.200 --> 00:12:37.639 to it. When I was younger, I was like, all right, 310 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:42.200 this sounds like the game, but yeah, I actually fighting 311 00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:44.440 was more like my passion. Passion. I should have just 312 00:12:44.519 --> 00:12:47.480 kind of your parents and your family, like, oh, college, college, 313 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:48.960 But I kind of wish I just. 314 00:12:48.960 --> 00:12:53.679 Went right into fighting. Yeah, with you being in fighting 315 00:12:53.759 --> 00:12:55.519 and now, you know, doing all kinds of different walks 316 00:12:55.519 --> 00:12:57.519 of live. You said you travel a lot. Has there 317 00:12:57.559 --> 00:13:02.000 been any crazy fan interactions maybe celebrity interactions that you 318 00:13:02.080 --> 00:13:03.840 just kind of didn't think that would go that way? 319 00:13:05.120 --> 00:13:08.279 I had. I had a kind of a crazy, like 320 00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:12.600 weird stalker from web three, which is like Twitter and stuff, 321 00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:15.960 and yeah, just some girl that was just like I 322 00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:17.440 wanted to be me and I met her and then. 323 00:13:17.559 --> 00:13:19.639 Like how yourself.
