Yeah.You’ve happened to saying things are okay, you know,and I feel like it’s just it’s like there’sglobal warming, you know, there’s celebrities breaking up, likeand you’re just saying things are okay.Who broke up?No, I think we’re we’re good now becausewe leveled it during the live stream yesterday.I assume someone’s broken up recently.Celebrity newswise. Yeah. Yeah.I feel like someone has to have broken up recently.That’s important. Yeah.No, I don’t keep my finger in that pie.You usually finger pies my fingers in a few pies. Yeah.Is it of a sexual nature or is it just normal?Inherently sexual. Yeah. Of fingering poison. Yeah.Remember what was that?American Pie? That scene? Yeah. What a classic.What a classic.Those movies were great, Joe.They don’t make those stupid teen movies anymore.There’s a reason for that. Why?One is political correctness, obviously, so youcan’t make a lot of those jokes. Okay.Traffic Thunder, of course, is a great examplewhere people but they’re genuinely great comedies.Who’s getting upset about traffic thunder.The never go full or word.I don’t even think I can say it on YouTube.Yeah, I said a lot when I’m driving, but you can’t.Shane Gillis has some of thefunniest comedy sketches in the world.American comedians are not funny, but Shane Gillistalking about that subject is some of thefunniest stand up comedy in existence.Yeah, the R word is and theyoriginally mean that, but then it becameassociated with people with, I suppose, mentalissues, whatever, development issues or whatever.So you can’t really say it anymore.Especially now that theYouTube algorithm is shockingly.Now listens to what you sayand then helps define the algorithm.But they don’t even understand howthe algorithm works in YouTube.Or at least they say they don’t understand.You know what I really want to happen?I really want Elon Musk to buy YouTube.No, that would be terrible.He’s ruined Twitter, basically. He hasn’t.Yeah, he got rid of all the softcocks.Now he renamed it X or something. X? But it’s Joe White.Why?Because he had a website like 25years ago called X.com that he wantedto do something similar to Twitter West.So he’s like, fuck him.So he renamed X Twitter.His biographer was on Lex Friedman this week.He’s a biographer?Yeah, go on.And he’s talking about he actuallyspeaks a lot about Elon Musk.But he’s done the biographies for like, a lotof famous people, like Isaac Newton and stuff. Right?Isaac Newton is dead.Yeah, since like the 15 hundreds.Oh, he did wrote a biography on him.You made it seem like he wasinterviewing them and doing biographies for them.Clearly not.Yeah, well, that’s the way you phraseno, everyone listening thought that nobody’s listening.Nobody’s listening knows who Isaac Newton is.But Elon Musk sounds like a bitof a fucking bit of a boy.I’d say he’d like you to believe that itwas like when him and Max Zuckerberg are goingfighting, because I think there’s this thing where it’slike even though they have more wealth than prettymuch any human in history has ever had, probablyevery will be vast majority, 99.99% of all humans.Which is fine. It is what it is.They deserve every cent of that.But some would argue against that. I think they do.Some might say there’s no ethicalway of being a billionaire. No.Which is, I would think, probably true.But they’re trying to essentially compensate for perceivedlack of manhood from the general public.And I get it with the zuck.There’s nothing Zuck could do that would makeme think he’s a Nana soft guy. Yeah.There’s nothing he can do.I get it with the like, because he islike, that’s just inherently who that person is.Elon Musk doesn’t seem like that curve.Yeah, I don’t know. I know.I think looking, but when he bought Twitter,he just brought a team of his engineersfrom the autopilot system in Tesla.He’s brought them in and he was like, okay, so oneof his golden rules is you keep firing people until youhave to hire 20% of the people you’ve fired back.And then, you know, you so you literally keep going untilyou go over by 20%, and then you come back.So they went in and they reviewed all the coders.So he just got the team ofengineers to look at just code. They don’t know anyone.They just look at code and they rank it.They fired 85% of the people who work there.So they just said, this code is shit. You get fired.That’s how they fired the first round of people.Then the second round of people were I think the secondround of people were like, are you all in or not?Do you live here or not?Can I ring you at 03:00 in the morning or not?If you don’t answer that, you get fired straight away.Seems like we’re trying to change how thecompany is run or whatever, and then Ican’t remember what the third one was.He seems intense. Yeah.You got to hand it to Americans forcompletely removing all the rights of their workers.Really?And just forcing people zero rights. Yeah.If someone tried to do that in Ireland oh, my God.That’s one of the things there’s a few things Iwant to get back to on the Elamas thing.But now we’re on the subject of workers’rights,I think you see a lot of peoplewe’re talking about know Peter Zahan was talkingabout Europe and how it’ll probably crumble.And I’ve seen this from people likeSam Harris and a few other people.Douglas Murray, who’s not a Yank but wants tobe, basically have always talked about how Europe willcrumble and know, but the vast majority of Europeancitizens are like, yep, Europe’s pretty good.I pretty like it.It’s pretty good for everything. Aren’t too bad here.Yeah.Now, there’s certain areas of workwithin Europe that people are like.So Ireland paid for a lot of thingsthrough giving up a lot of fishing rights.And if you speak to a lot of fishermenabout Europe, they’re like, hate, know, fair enough.But for the vast majority ofpeople, Europe’s a great thing. Fuck yeah.Like, the European Union is a great thing.Ireland benefited a lot from the European Union, buteven on a personal level, in terms of justtravel, for example, same currency, it’s unbelievable.Same currency, no visas, you just fly places.Everyone understands, in and out.It’s so convenient.Now, I know that’s not ahugely meaningful thing in some fashions.Obviously a lot of economies are supported by that.But Europe has a lot of benefits.In an Ireland benefit, usuallyfrom joining the European Union.There’s a couple of countries who want to jointurkey have been trying to join since 1987. Yeah.But Turkey manufacture arms on a largequantity and they’re committing war crimes currently.Well, Sweden are basically stoppingTurkey getting into European Union.But then Turkey are stopping Sweden getting into NATO.Basically.So it’s kind of like, what’s happening there?Why are you just political politics.Just, you know yeah, I imagine the Swedesare just like fully flat expression, being like,no, we did not vote against.No, I can see there’s a Swedishflag with no to Turkey written on.But yeah, the NATO thing, all thatcrack but unzucker book, the Zuck isactually Elon Musk we were talking about.No, we’re talking about Zuck as well. Right.But they think that fighting is the thing thatwill make people perceive them as manly, but thatactually isn’t really that big a part of it.No, it’s just a perceivedcharacter that they’re lacking.Like, there’s just no substance, especially to Zuck,because he’s a robot or a lizard man.Like, he’s not real, but Elon Musk is.You are who you are.Just be happy with it. To be honest.Now, and this is a bit of a sweepingstatement, anybody who grew up in a parasite SouthAfrica doesn’t need to prove how tough they are. Yeah.What are you trying to prove?What’s the point?Everybody here understands you do notneed to cage fight another CEO. Yeah.The fact that you think having a fightwith another businessman is what’s going to makepeople think you’re tough just shows you thatyou’ve completely missed the point of it.But particularly a fight with defined rulesin a sports arena, technically, like, gosports, sports, organized sports rule.So technically, this morning Iwent and fought somebody.No, I didn’t.I just went to training.The modality of training is wrestling.Pajama wrestling. Yeah.It doesn’t make you tough. Like yeah.The fact that they’re trying to be tough.Joe, another group of people who really need to have alook at themselves, who for trying to be tough or tryingto make their sports seem as though they’re tough.Powerlifters.Yeah, powerlifters.Talking about going to war against a bearable.Weightlifters fall into this as well? Not as much.Not as much, but they do.Not to cast aspersions though.But sometimes American weightlifters canbe guilty of that.I just knew American weightlifters are coming in today.I’m not talking bad on them.They’re going to war against the bare belt.No, you’re going to training.You’re going to practice.Look, I don’t spend a lot of timethinking about this, but now that you bringit up, sometimes some American weightlifters do. WWW.ARMINIC.COM Do come across like that.A lot of powerlifters do.When they get the photo shoots from the camps andthey’ve got, like they cut in the belt on andthey’re kind of like this in slow motion somewhere.You do you. I don’t care.No, and you do you is great.Now that we’re on the subject, youshouldn’t be lighting competitions like that.How do you mean? Oh, yeah.You shouldn’t lighten them up.You should have normal amounts of lightsso people can see what’s going on.If you want it to be viewed as asport, you should be able to see what happens.There should not be a smoke machine.There certainly shouldn’t be strobe lights.And no overall general lighting in the room.Are you not a fan of the mist and fog?No, I hate it.I don’t like the lights and time, the music.That would really be like but it’s all that.It’s a production.But you know what, though?Do you remember that Sheffieldcompetition was on this year? Yes, in Sheffield.For some reason, loads of people said itwas a really good didn’t that looked likea weightlifting competition with powerlifting vibes.They were up on, like, a stage.It was a large scale event.You could see the lift.We’ve had things being presented for anew show where you genuinely can’t tellif it’s man, woman, child, alien.You don’t know what it is.The lads from ABS sent us some video of theirmost recent competition and they said, how’s that for lighting?But there was like fire and flames in the backgroundand there was a lad that lad dresses up. Pirate.Come on, lad. Who is that? He’s online.Why is he so prolific as well?Why is he going to all these competitions?What is going on?Is he like the Jeff?What are the two brothers one of them’s deadnow, who used to present the UFC in allthe boxing matches and the guy in the velvetjacket, dean Herbert Berber, something like that?No, it’ll come to me later.Boxing and UFC as guys in a velvet jacket and Pirliftingas a pirate guy, you know, in the blue corner.But it makes no sense.They like him, though.They love him, clearly. Yeah.I actually don’t think I’ve everlistened to him doing his job.There’s a great bar called Levi’s.You’re talking about Bally Dihab.You’re talking about a pub.Do people think you’re talkingabout a powerlifting bar?I’m talking about a pub, a public house.They do a load of live gigs down there in Ballytihab.Ballydihab is in the middle of nowhere in West Corkand there’s one of the bartenders there dresses up asa cowboy with a fake plastic gun in his belt.It’s kind of a vibe.I thought you were going to say he got intosome kind of weird combat because someone thought it wasa real no, no, he did drop the gun onthe floor in front of the Mary Wallopers.A favourite band of yours. I love him.And the Mary Wallopers. Stop playing the song.They’re like, where from? In Dundalk?A fella drops his gun on the floor.Nobody says nothing.Did you see there a couple of years ago?Good couple of years ago now.It’s when the police had Uzis, whenthey’re armed and the guards had Uzis.Did you see?They found an IRA training camp in thewoods somewhere up somewhere north, I think.I think it was in the Republic, though.But it was basically in the mountains, inforestry, and they had basically sleep arrangements.It was a training camp made of insulation foamand plywood and stuff, but they had an undergroundshooting range, so they had like six inch, maybeeight inch kind of alkaline pipes buried underground.And so they had like two layers of them, andat the end there was a load of tires, andthen they put tires around the pipes, then they buriedthe pipes to insulate them from the sound.And then they had two little cubby holes and theyhad about 20ft of a range of those pipes.And then you could either lie prone orshoot off the shoulder as target practice forunbelievable, that’s amount of work, isn’t it? Yeah.If I had a big sight at home, I’d do that.I’d probably do ten inch piping, though.Yeah, that would be very nice.Mainly for zeroing rifles.Yeah, zeroing like underground if it’s raining.Zeroing isn’t great.If it’s windy, which it’s one ofthose two things all the time.Yeah, zeroing isn’t great.A 50 meters range would be lows, and if you’rebuying a site somewhere, you definitely get 50 meters.That’s why I just like to zero it in.As I’m shooting deer, I just like to get seasonal.Your laxadaisical approach to deer shooting andrifles is it’s how I approach strengthtraining, but it’s surprisingly how accurate Iam is the real surprise to everyone. It’s surprising.The shots I make are very good sometimes.The end of last season, I wasin top form, like I was peaked.It’s such a shame then, because the season’s over andthen I lose all my sports specific skill again.No, but you don’t have to lose it.You could literally come targetshooting with us anytime.I go target shooting at homesometimes once every three months.Like, add the month before the season starts soI can make sure my rifle is fine.It’s just free and loose.Yeah, that’s how you feel.That’s how I feel about you whenyou’re sucking strength training at the moment. Yeah.How is training going there?I just had to take another week and a bit.Ten days off training for yet another staph infection, butwe’ve got Alex Keekel on the well, we’ve alex Keekeland a dose of antibiotics that would kill a heart.You’re finished antibiotics. Yeah.So this dose of antibiotics is my fifththis year, so it’s my fourth staph infection.I also had scarlet fever, which nearly killed me.Yeah, that was bad.So five doses of penicillin this year.I’ve been assured that Iwon’t get antibiotic resistance. Yeah.Antibiotic resistance is usually as if you didn’t finishthe course, so you were to throw it away.And that’s more of a global thing. Yeah.You’re not going to cause you antibiotic resistance.You could contract antibiotic resistant bacteria, potentially, orget infected with it, but there would haveto be somewhere where that’s a thing. MRSA. Yeah.So there’s no fear, realistically, of that happening.There’s a lot of good methodsactually been developed that aren’t antibioticsfor the antibiotic resistance thing. Okay.Remember a long time they thoughtthat was going to kill us. Yes.There’s some interesting techniquesbeen developed fairly efficiently.There’s stuff like Bacteriophages, which arejust viruses that specifically target bacteria.But if you could engineer those specifically for the bacteriathat you want, if you could do those specifically forstaff, it would be so handy for yeah, yeah.It’s so weird because our gym is really know, so clean.It’s just you had Lyme disease last yearand I said, Dara, I think you mighthave Lyme’s disease actually two years ago.And it was two years ago. Yeah. Oh, my God. It was.Anyway, I said, you should definitely get aLyme disease test because you’re tired a lot,and I think you have Lyme’s disease.And if anyone is going to have Lyme’s disease, you’re goingto have it right here, and you didn’t get it.And lo and behold, everyone, just for arecord, turns out Darren did have Lyme’s disease.And I said, I think you’ve Lyme’s disease. Yeah.Absolute testament to your mental fortitude fornot letting it affect your life.Just too big and strong to get pulled downby know, no brute force and pig ignorance.To be honest, having just been working for myselffor a long time and having previous to thatjust had a very injured brain, I thought that’sthis how people feel all the time.You were exhausted someday exhausted andjust like, frazzled all the time.I’m kind of glad you got over it.And now you got the test results.Because I can be smuggler now, because if you stillhad it, I couldn’t be smuggled that you’d lying disease.I’d be like, oh, shit, you better fix this.But now I’m like, yeah, just too big and strong.So Alex has given some recommendations, andhopefully we’ll put the Kabush in it.Yeah, I just need to get my gut back online as well.The interesting thing about the gut stuffseems to be that if you havea well established gut, it’s very elastic. Yes.But it’s also if you have a poorlyestablished gut microbiome, it’s also elastic to that.So it takes a lot of encouragement. Yeah.See, I used to be able to, like Iate raw chicken breasts when I was in college.Didn’t get sick, ate a lot ofgun off food, never got sick.Things that would have killed people.I’ll have my chicken rare, please. Yeah.Most sandwiches I ever ate in mylife had mud or sand in them.That’s good for you, though. Exactly.That actually is good for you.But I do think the last twelve months of beingon antibiotics every single month really will have fucked that.But you have a lifelong gutmicrobiome history there, you know? Yes.So hopefully, once you’re given enoughtime, crawl back up out yeah.That your gut microbiome will establish itself.And to be honest, it’s not even just about my gut.It’s just the office toilet. Really.Can’t take it anymore.Can’t take anymore. Yeah.Running out in the middle of meetings. Yeah.No, I think you’ll be okay.I’d say I’ll be Grant. Yeah.People survive much?Know way worse. Yeah. No.Scarlet fever did nearly kill you.Scarlet fever did nearly kill me.And it nearly killed thesecret training camp in Portugal.It wasn’t that we were going tohave to cancel it, but it was. WWW.ARMINIC.COM Going to be like, was Dara goingto be able to make it normally?So we’d rented a car.And normally when we’re on these trips, obviouslyDara lives for them and is super excited. Love it.And we were driving along the south coast of Portugal, likethe Atlantic on the left, new places on the right.I was driving along, happy, out, and Dara wasbasically fading in and out of consciousness the tomy right, and just couldn’t pep him up.Just couldn’t even hold the phone uphere for Girth to see you, actually.That was abysmal.Jeez, I was bait.And then we had some friends who were coming over.We’re sharing an airbnb with them, met them thatevening, and I literally couldn’t get out of bed.Yeah, they went off and explored the island.Do you know what’s funny is somepractitioners, some therapists will selectively use antibioticsto create a barren waste and essentiallyto seed a better microbiome. No way.Now, I’m not saying that’s a good idea. Yes.And time will prove that correct or not.And I don’t know how much success they use that,but there’s more than one therapist who have spoken aboutthat, where they’ll use antibiotics and then recede it.I don’t know.I don’t think that’s a great idea.Generally taking super interesting, though.It’s really interesting the way medicine is going.I think we talked about this last week before.That the way it is going.The problem is that might be looked downupon getting leeches, the equivalent of that inorthopedics as well is like, no, we’re obviouslynot going to revive your ACL.Here’s a set of blades and we’regoing to cut your leg off instead.That’s literally what that could be.That could be fully akin to justbeing like, yeah, let’s amputate the lecture.But also what go by them areyou putting in there someone else’s poop?It’s not actually poop.They spin it down and stuff.Do they spin it down, though?100% they do. It wouldn’t work otherwise.You couldn’t just eat someone else’s shit.You couldn’t just get a colonoscopy of someone’s poop.You could just human centipede.When you get a swell in the brain, I know it well.Yeah, sometimes they have to relieve the pressure.I’m not sure how they do it anymore.I assume there’s pharmaceutical interventions, but one of the techniquesused to be just opening a hole in your brainto relieve the pressure to save your life.And they used to do things where they’d getbasically a hand drill and they’d cut probably aboutan inch wide circle of bone in your brain.So this could be on the battlefield orsomething from trauma, and they take out thislump of skull and relieve the pressure.And what they used to do was generally silvercoins and just screwed them into your head.That’s so fucking people survived.It relieved the pressure.All that, quote unquote gunk came out and you justwent along with a silver coin in your head.It’s probably a Spanish silver coin or something. Yeah.That is madness.There’s evidence of mummies from a coupleof thousand years ago with I thinkthey’re called it’s not trachectomy.It starts with T.Trauma, I think is what it really is.But imagine that.Imagine, though, so you’ve just fought a battle.Maybe it’s 12 hours, maybe it’s 36 hours.You’re unconscious underneath a pile of bodies.You’ve obviously had a big bang to the head.You’re probably been stabbed a few times andthen somebody has to drill into your skull.No anesthetic?No anesthetic, no painkillers, nothing.Even if you had a fewmagic mushrooms, you’d be all right. Yeah. Transcend.Imagine how bad a trip that’d be. Oh, my God.I thought someone was drilling into my head. Oh, my God.Turns out we were, but I don’t think shrooms were everused as like a definitely cocaine and stuff was used.Sorry, cocaine still used as a numbing agent.Lydicane when you get your gums done or whatever.Get your gums done a lot, do you?No, to the detriment of my dental health.But I don’t think shrooms are ever used like that. Yeah.I don’t know.That really worked, to be honest. Yeah.In fact, someone freaking out because they’re tripping ballson shrooms might not be great if you’re tryingto drill a hole within 5 their brain.It might actually leave some lastingpsychological damage, you might say. Yeah.There’s a lot of people say there’s no issues atall with psychedelics, but some people just go mental.Some people go mental smoking weed as well.That’s what I was thinking about.You were thinking about the schizophrenia thing?Yeah, mostly males as well, which is interesting.What’s the point of going mental?Obviously you don’t do it on purpose.No, but what’s the point inhabitually using it that much?You’re like, I know now it’s one in 5000.Yeah, but come on, you could just losetouch reality forever and never come back.Would that be such a bad thing, though? Yes.What if your new reality was class, it was a reallygood new reality and you were having a swell time.So if I was in thatsituation, the reality you wouldn’t know.No, but the reality I would like, right.Would be coke and hookers.No, I want to go way more mysterious than that.Coconut dragons, say, before it happens. Right.I’ve been successful in the world of finance.You haven’t been. Go on. Anyway.No, come on, Imaginary, put me in some reality.How many realities?We’re just going one step down andthen we’ll finish at two steps down. Right. Okay.So the reality I’m in right now is 33 beensuccessful in the word of, like, trading and finance.I’m in a gap between positions, so maybe I leftone firm, got a bit of a gold and handshake.I have a big portfolio myself. Yeah.The allegations have followed through.The allegations have followed through.Now I’m waiting on a court date and Igo on this like fucking weed smoking bonanza.I go to Amsterdam for a weekend, right?So I’m highly liquid in terms of financially.I can support myself, okay?I’ve no ties to back home or whatever, as opposed tonow, where I have a dog and I’m in Amsterdam.I just trip all and I lose all touch.Reality, right?The reality I want for myself isthat I move to South America somewhere.Maybe Brazil.I go to the jungle.And then I set up an imaginary CIA safehouse that I’m going to keep safe forever.What the fuck are you talking about?How much are you talking about? This. What, you mean?You buy a small patch of land, right?But what’s the CAA got to do with this?Because I’m a secret agent.Oh, I get it. Okay. You could do that anyway.You could pretend that now in your reality, but I’ma secret agent in stage one of the reality.You could do that with your final no, butstage two no, but in stage one you could.But stage one, I’d always knowthat I wasn’t a secret agent.I’d be like, I’m kind of laughing here.And that’s where getting baked comes in. Yeah.So I get super baked.Suddenly I’m a secret agent.The born fits a maatum.And I move to South America.I set up a little patch of land,maybe like a small little town, right?Or city, say, 50,000 people.I get myself set up, find a house, get the house done.I’ll put, like a bunker into it.Loads of security stuff.Get an arsenal of weapons.Everything is set up.And then I just stay there forever,waiting for them to call me. Okay.I get it.How long have you been thinking about this there?In the last four minutes? Yeah.So this is super specific. Yeah.In current reality, you’ve got a new dog, new baby.Yeah, murphy. Murphy. Murph is right.Like murphy it is.I call him Murph all the time, but hehas no concept of what his name is anyway.Is he listening to Murph?He listens to nothing.Yeah, he listens and he just stops.And then if you’re like this, he’ll sit down.And if you tell the light like he doeslisten, he just doesn’t know what his name is.Do you think he could be on some kind of weed?I think he’s on cocaine and methamphetamine.Do they call that an eight ball?I think eight ball is cocaine meth, isn’t it?I think so.Whatever it is, he’s on it.Zach Bryan has a song called Nine Ball.Oh, he references eight ball in the song, but Ithink a nine ball might be wait, is it notwhiskey and something in there as well, though.Eight ball isn’t the term usedin Ireland, I don’t think. No.Wasn’t a shitload of coke as well, though.It is a big ball of coke. Yeah. I feel like this mightbe monetizers talking about this. Will it?I’m just trying to think what reality I’d like.If I was so baked that I had, what would you like?I don’t know, really, to be honest with you.I’m pretty happy with my current reality, to be honest.I like my current reality.I wish I was healthier. WWW.ARMINIC.COM It, but it’s your fault.You know, they tested those ticks in Ireland andthey tested them in Kerry, and they’re like, noneof them have Lyme’s disease, but we know loadsof people who have Lyme’s disease.I’ve never heard of more from deer as well.Yeah, 100% from deer.Plenty of people have gotten themfrom just walking around the place.Yeah, it’s funny is they don’t seemto have these on continental mainland Europe.And people obviously come to Ireland. Lots of tourists.Every year, millions of people go to the national parks,lie down in the grass and walk along grass.Germans, Spanish, Italians.I would have thought they have ticks.But people I’ve seen people and I’ve heard ofpeople being like, you don’t go in there.There’s ticks and they’re just not paying attention.We know somebody who’s a boat driver inthe national park and he just saw aload of people lying down on the grass.I think it was up by Kate Kearney’s cottage.And he was like, what are you doing?They’re like, oh, the sun is so beautiful.And he was like, you’d be fucking dead by Christmas.Yeah.The one thing about Lyme disease is a tickhas to be on you for quite a while. Yeah.Before you get like 36 hours or something.But you always check yourself forticks, which is so strange. But they love you.It’s so strange. Obsessed me. Yeah.I’ve never had a tick.Never had a mosquito bite in my life.The the only things that eat me are horsefliesin Ireland, and by God, do they eat me.You don’t feel the pain until they’re gone becausethey use a little bit of anesthesia or whatever.You can milk them for it.And I just look down, I’ll be like, oh, that was sore.I’ll see just a big trail of blood down my leg.It’s so they just gash at you.But it’s only the only insect that seems to cherish me.Yeah.All insects love me. It’s so strange.Yeah, I’ve seen so many ticks in you after hunting.It’s so weird.But how do they make it toyour waistband and neck band and stuff?They just jump up in you and they’ll just crawl up.You’ll see them most of the time. You see them.They’re moving like I see them on you.It’s so strange.I’ve never had one on me.They love me. They must have.That weird, like, delicious sugary blood.I have the 3% blood, whatever that is.3% glucose.No, that means you’re diabetic.That means there’s no, I think less than3% of the population of this blood type.But this blood type can be givento nearly every other blood type.No, your glucose disposal mechanisms are fucked.You’re diabetic. That’s what that is.What blood type am I?I have no idea what blood type I meant, to be honest.Do you not give blood?They tell you there.I actually must give blood. I should.You don’t see the ads as much anymore for it.Yeah, I keep thinking about that, actually.I need to give blood, and I don’t usedto be a big thing in our rugby clubthat everybody give blood all the time.It used to be a big thing, actually.Come to the gap pitch.That was it a lot therapeutic phlebotomyis a thing sometimes talked about.Like leeches.You know what, it’s literallythe same mechanism of action.Like they’re donating blood. I don’t know.The research on that would be intricate, I would say.Like that clearance of old blood, bloodcells, encouragement of eritreopoisis, stuff like that.It’s pretty like yeah. I don’t know.And is it really going to work unless youget that virgin’s blood pump back into you?But sure, I have my own virgin blood right here.I don’t need to get someone else’s version.You’re the one I’ve been buying itthe one they’ve been taking it from.There’s that, you know, they’ve done thatwith the mice they’ve given them notvirgin mice blood, but just mice. Baby mouse blood.Yeah, baby mouse blood.It does seem to have some effect. Yeah.Your man, the guy you hate.We’re talking about Brian Johnson again, but hasgiven his son’s blood to his father. Right.Who was talking about this?Was this he sounds that sounds likesomething Mark Bell would talk about.Was it Mark Bell or was it Stan Efroning?Basically when their father was dying, they went back homefor a few months and he needed blood transfusions orwhatever, and they were giving it to him.But obviously that’s totally different.If you need whoever it was, was like, dosedup and they were like, he was doing great.That does sound familiar, actually.I don’t know if it’s that Mark Belldonation of blood for people with deficiencies, butthe donation of blood for the gifting ofblood for lifelong vampire purposes is interesting. Yes.You have to imagine there’s some billionaire outthere with someone trapped in their basement.They’re taking blood from them.I assume there’s organized crime groupswho farm people for blood.They’re pretty close to pigs hearts with alittle genetic engineering being able to get transfusions.No way. Yeah.So pig’s organs are very close.Yeah, I think some of the surgeries used to use them.I used to use pig skin, I think, look realistic.And movie effects used to use them.Yeah, I know.On like, ballistic testing and stuff.They mostly use pigs.Like, your belly looks just like a little pig’s belly.Like if you shaved, it’s just like a little piglet.It’s just a massive row of nipples that he’s getting.Weird, isn’t it? Yeah, it is.Actually, speaking of nipples, the new puppy, Murphy,every time he meets my old dog, Seiko,just immediately starts feeding from her nipples.Oh, my God.But there’s nothing coming out andhe has full on teeth.Are you putting the kabushner? Oh, yeah.Fuck, yeah. Seiko would hate that.I’d say Seiko hates it.She just puts her head in betweenyour legs and just, like, cowers in. Yeah.You need to make sure their relationship is good. Yeah.Six is a princess. Yeah.At the moment, Murph is a14 year old crackhead on SARMs.Yeah, on all the SARMs.Saw a really funny T shirt there withLance Samstrong, and it was just like aFamily Guy style drawing of Lance Armstrong, buthe’s super Jacked and Princess Diana ball. Oh, yeah.Princess Diana with Jack Darmst. That was hilarious.That one’s a little bit more likesensitive, I would say, for some people. Do you think?Of course it is. She was so popular. Yeah.I was literally listening to a video this morning oftalking about Mi Five agents who whistleblowed in the 90s,so probably 96, no later than that, 99.And they went on the run and it was justslowly so they had a gag order taken out byMF Five on them to let the British press nottalk about this or make them not talk about it.And then they obviously wanted an investigation going on andthey were getting a little bit of traction and theyfled to Paris or France, and a week later, PrincessDiana died and their whole story got kind of coveredup, obviously for ages, when Prince Diana’s death.And what were they whistleblowing about?So one of them was a plotby MF Five to assassinate Gaddafi.Muadmar Gaddafi. Yeah.So General Gaddafi or Colonel Gaddafi? Colonel Gaddafi.Gaddafi.Well, he got assassinated in the end, 2011.But they were supporting him or something at the time,or wasn’t the CIA were supporting him for a while. Yeah.But they were whistleblowing on, something like that.There was these Palestinian students who were basicallywrongly accused of attempting to bomb the Israeliembassy in London, and they got convicted.And these Mi Five whistleblowers had evidence, or theyknew Mi Five had evidence to very clearly showthat they had nothing to do with that.They didn’t know nothing at all to it.And they kept covering up.Those students were in jail for,like, 15 years and stuff.It’s one of those Lad Bible things, actually.Yeah, there was a really interesting guy, actually,I think you should listen to him.He was an ex SAS soldier, but he was inthe so it’s kind of the cowboy days, essentially, fora lot of that stuff, and I assume still is.But he went work in the private sector andstuff, and he went to a lot of differentplaces initially with the SAS and one of thethings he was working on, the pirate ship.So basically, piracy is, like, massive reduced now becausethere’s loads of effective mechanisms, but on the kindof east coast of Africa, and for a while.In the initial days, there was billions stolen everyyear from Somali pirates, and they essentially had nodefense mechanisms for a while because people can’t run.Really keeping up with essentially.And I think the insurance companieswere just paying it off. Yeah.So he was doing a lot of that in the private sector.So he left the special forcesand joined the private sector.And he said there’s a story of him at one stage,he said they basically like, if this left London or UK.He couldn’t even carry a knife ora gun in some of these know.Whereas if it was a Russian ship, obviously hecould have whatever he wanted or a different company,someone who’s been invited to do it.But this is the early days where he basically gota load of, like, chicken wire and had nothing.He knew that the pirateswouldn’t have great shots, basically.And he said this, they’re coming up one day.And he tried to scare him off with a woodengun cut out to show him he had a gun.And he threw something at him, like abag of bolts, and it didn’t work. WWW.ARMINIC.COM And he said they were trying to hatch onto the edge.So he ran to the kitchen and grabbed thefridge and threw it down on top of them.Holy shit.Yeah, so hectic oh my God.Yeah, very hectic but he saidthe money in the private sector.He was in Afghanistan and Iraq in the private sector.He said like some years there you couldbe earning like two or 300K or something.Yeah, I believe it. How much? Sterling.See, sometimes it was like massive pay, no danger.Sometimes it a huge danger, no pay. Yeah.That’s the fucking if theobjective wasn’t successful or whatever.Yeah, he was talking about as well.Obviously his life deteriorated a bit at one point.Not obviously, but he kind of started drinking a lot.And he said when they just got arrested bythe police for some an, you’ll appreciate the phrase.But he said he kind of looked himself inthe mirror and just had a chat with himselfand was like, what the fuck are you doing?Basically, you need to sort it out. Yeah.Nobody gets out of that scot free.Even when you see the most well adjusted people yes.And then you watch them for long enoughor you talk to them for long enough,you realize nobody gets out with clean hands.Like, there’s a lot of books andTV shows from some of them. Yeah.Mostly it seems to be the UK specialforces seem to kind of go that route.I know in the US.You have to have your bookapproved by your superior command. Yeah.I have to read through it orwhatever, make sure there’s no secrets.And then even for fiction writers who were previouslyin the military, like Jack Karen stuff yes.Have to have their fiction books reviewedby their former commander or whatever.Do you read any of his books? Yeah. Any good?Yeah, pretty good.Are they kind of like Clancy stuff?Very like that.I remember there’s one talking about like a Taliban prisoner andhe I can’t remember what book it was, but he basicallytakes a butter knife and whittles it down over a fewweeks and then tax few guards, gets an AK.And as he’s coming out and he at onepoint phrases as slamming his finger into the trigger.And I was like, you really don’t slam a trigger.But that might not have been him proper word.Wait, was this a fiction?So he’s describing and then ruined that book for me.But I read books from him after.But he was Tom or JackHarr was actually slamming trigger.Well, if it’s like my trigger and it’slike rock solid your trigger is disgusting.Your trigger is disgusting because the gun’s not clean.No, that’s not clean. I clean it all the time.No, yeah, but you haven’t taken your gunout of the stock and cleaned the trigger.It was always a heavy trigger. Not that heavy.This is like I was unsure if the safety was off.Listen, you don’t even know what you’re talking about.Oh, you found your antis.I did find my anthes, yeah. Where were the anthes?So they were in a little basketcovered in, like, wrist wraps and theKazakhstan knee wraps, a miscellaneous gear basket.And it was on top of a wardrobe.And I’d looked casually, but there’s loads of otherboxes and stuff, and I kind of missed it.Then I went out to my parents calf, andI was checking there and I found another pairof Ram Two S that I forgot I’d own.I think it’s my third pair of Ram Twos that I owned.So I had the initial no, actually, I thinkthis might be the first pair of Ram Twos.And then I got the blue ones.Then I got the black ones forthe Europeans, and I sold those.I wish I held onto those, to be honest, but he’s mustwhen you’re in college and you get free stuff to sell.Yeah.And then I still have, like, threepairs now of Ram Twos or whatever.So you’ve had five pairs in total? Yeah.More than a small fortune worth of Ram Twos now.Yeah, and I’ve someone to shoot.I found my original iron no strength shop shoes.Did you? Fuck?Yeah, the small blue ones. Holy shit.The handmade ones, I think they were yeah.Turkey.I don’t know where they’re made, but they’re acollector’s item because you can’t get those anymore.No, they’re first pair of weight shoe.I’m trying to think.My first weightlifting shoes that Ihad were the Reebok ID.You just go onto their website andyou get to pick the colors.And you pick the colors.That’s so out of character.Gray and navy, actually.Gray and navy.Oh, the really? The terrible pair of shoes.Terrible, yeah.The one Tacos is wearing. Yeah. Come on. Come on.That’s what you did, isn’t it? That’s why you did it.Yeah.You snatched onto Kilos and those, is it?No, I did all the trainingfor snatch 100 Kilos in those.They are the worst pair of shoe ever.And then I got Ryan Flanagan in Limerick gave mea loan of his addie powers, the red ones.And I did, like, a few weekstraining in them and statue hundred.And then I got white addie powers after that.What are you you have the blue rams still.Yeah, white addie powers for ages.Then I got the black andred addy powers that were terrible.Then I got the antas, thered and yellow, the Chinese antas.But I had them and they were slightly thewrong size, so I gave them to Johnny Shields. Oh, yes.I think John bought them off are peopledon’t know what people are talking about, butthese are a terrible pair of shoe.They’re actually they’re my favorite lookingshoe in the world ever.And they’re just these bad boys. Yours are ruined.Did you use them much?I think I’ve trained them five times, which is thetotal amount of training I’ve done in the last year.They look great.And this whole thing is fine.This is so solid, but they’re so small fitting for me.The issue is out here on this lateral edge yeah.If you have normal sized feet. Yeah.Who was making shoes and just being like yeah, Ithink a lot of maybe the Germans have very theproblem with a lot of equipment manufacturers, both past andpresent, is that a lot of the times, by thetime they’ve defined products, they haven’t really had someone whotrains hard use their product.Be that shoes or belts or bars orwhatever it is, it’s definitely a failing.But because it’s so inefficient, like, if you thinkabout the amount of time we took formulations ofSeek Asleep for the amount of times we changedin and out ingredients, both of us constantly, ourathletes constantly doing formulations of it, those things takea lot of time.And for big companies, that’s not it.For big companies, it’s like, oh, the 2023 lineneeds to be sorted by the midway through 2022.But it’s such a short sighted way of approaching thingsbecause you were going to have a bad product.You have a bad name.Nike have a bad name currently, kind of,because everyone’s like, I need the old versionof their shoe that you can’t get anymore. Yes.Adidas have now a terrible name.They had the market sewn up.They had everything.It was theirs for the taking.But there’s even, like, modern, smaller scale manufacturersof different kind of equipment who clearly justhaven’t had equipment or people train in it. Yeah.You know who’s really consistent is Hookrip.Hook grip are phenomenal. Yeah.But that’s just down to Nat. Nat? Yeah.He goes to China multiplies, checks out the factories andstuff, and he gets know there’s a lot to besaid for somebody who’s made their fortune and now hasa business where they’re fully emotionally invested in it.But is that because he’s a diligent person andit’s not because he’d made his fortune, but hewould have put that same effort in anyway.Yeah, that’s a good point.Those Anthes are actually the original hooker ones.Are they the red and yellows?No, the black and red ones. Oh, yeah. Sorry.No, they’re before you could buythem anywhere from Anta, even.How did I get mine?I think you got them after. Is it maybe?No, how did you get definitely had mine before.You got them from Antho, didn’t them?I think I bought a pair from Hookrip and they gotdelivered to the States and my dad collected them because theseare the ones with the Hookrip logo on it.Mine are the China ones. Yes.I’d forgotten how much of the Hookrip logoon them were under which which ones?The red and yellow. You don’t yeah. Where are they now?John has them.They’re in Boston, Mass.I forgot how much art support the Antidotes give you.Yeah.I always remember them being great for squatting.I really like them for lifting.They don’t love them for lifting.Yeah, I like I actually no, they’rea bit too high for lifting.I think they’re a bit too rigid.I wouldn’t have that issue.Yeah, you’re always baked. What?You’re always I’m always waistrestricted in the ankles.But it was just I think we were we talkingabout it because I was talking about the barefoot squatting.Feels quite nice.And then I was kind of trying outdifferent stuff and the Rom two are. WWW.ARMINIC.COM Nice for squatting.They’re solid, but I really likethe space from barefoot squatting.It just feels so solidagainst the ground, such rigidity.I don’t have fallen arches or pronated anklesor anything like that, so I don’t havean issue with maintaining an arch.So trying to find something that kind ofreplicates that and the shoe was hard.I tried the addy power.No, the addie stars. No.Ironwork twos or trees. Ironwork trees.I think the addy stars or whatever these are.Addy stars. There’s an eight. Yeah.So I trained the armor trees, smallerheel in them, which is good.I don’t need the full heel necessarily for squatting, but Iwas trying to see if I could find a happy medium.But even though the ant is obviously quite high, theyhave a load of arch support, and they’re so solid.Last, I did 250 by five in them.I think the ant is probably the best option for you.Just for squatting, though.But if I was still waiting, I wouldn’t know.I mean, for this next month. Yeah.My best front squad is 240 is in the ant is.So you really feel the stability of the man.Now, the big question everyone’s roaring in my ear toask you is, in the weeks following your big squat,are you going to do a big front squat?I think you should just stay peaked, staytapered, give it a week or two.Do you know that’s not feasible?Like, you know, that’s a stupid question.That’d be class, probably.Front squat, 260. You know, that’s a dumb.I haven’t front squatted in eight months.But everyone knows you don’t need to frontsquat to be good at front squatting. That’s true.Now, I don’t know, I was thinking aboutthis, but I haven’t done any front squats.You see, I’m still doing my elbow rehab,which is going very well, thanks to Dr.Steph performance.Yeah, but I really haven’t done any, probably what’smore angenda is 200 for 20 reps is reallymore of a concern, to be honest with you.So that’ll probably be it.But a front squat, I don’t thinkI could hold the strength enough.Red front squat, like 250 or 260. Okay.Quickly enough, I recover myfront squatting abilities quickly enough.If I’d been doing some front squat, I think it’d befeasible, but I don’t know, maybe might have a look.But front squats are heavy. Yeah.Two front squats are heavy.A 240 fuel of front squat is heavy. Yeah.So 250 front squats make you super tired.Yeah, I’ll have a look, but I don’t have any GRA to do.You don’t have it building inside you.I think you should do 220 foras many reps as you can do.I’ve done it’s either twelve or 14, I think,like 220 for 20 people in your sack.That would be sick.You have the gusto to go and do it as well, 220 for 20.I don’t know.Yeah, you’ve definitely the capability of doing it.Yeah.Take a lot of work.220 for 20 would be sick, but Imight fucking deviate an arc or something.There like you’ve big, healthy hurting you.That’s the problem.It’s not supposed to be big, right? Yeah.Thanks so much for watching this week’s shed talk. Yeah.We’ll be back again with a long form next week.Just so everyone knows, a lot of thingswe say are just humor in this.Sometimes there’s comments where people think we’re being seriousand just the OD time most people get thehumor, but the OD time there’s a comments andpeople are like, obviously there are certain cases wherewe’re being humorous and obviously there are certain caseswhere we’re being not humorous and deadly serious.And like the case whatI’m talking about American weightlift.It you just don’t know is the problem.When I give out to you on camera, sometimespeople think I’m joking, but I’m deadly serious.Oh, yeah.I’m actually so fucking annoyed at you.Our life in here is fucking torture. Yeah.No, it’s like working with you is the worst.Joe if you were to put a bandana onyour head, tie the top button of that shirt,hey, Jolo, put on like a wife eater.And then pull your pants down soit’s kind of straddling your ass.You’d pull off that like, hey, I wouldlove to do seek a string shirt.I would love to do a nice shirt.We are not a formal dress wear company.Could be if we wanted to be.No, you know what?I won’t wear a sports performance company andwe could be a sports performance shirt. What?Yeah, it could be people wearing flannels in the gym.A drink at some stage would be so cool.A drink would be pretty sick. Yeah.Pre workouts next.The pre workout is marching along.Yeah, marching along very well.It’ll be sick.This pre workout is going to give you things thatno other pre workout in the world has given you. Yeah.So a lot of times, obviously, when people arelooking at pre workouts, it’s just like big stim.So obviously we’re going to have caffeine stimmed.But what you want to be ableto do is like mental clarity, freshness,prolonged performance during the workout.And then a big thing will beskill acquisition, formation of better quality movement.So the longer you take this, you’re not just goingto have blunt an effect from a stim like youmight get from a lot of pre workouts.This is going to be something that hopefully over a courseof time in training will also freshen you up after aday’s work or pep you up for a big workout.But when you’re training should potentially alot of the effects you’re training andit will be accumulative as well.Like those nootropic effects aren’t as GERFwas saying, it’s not just like gettingpunched in the face by a stimulant.Like, you will notice a big difference over time. Yeah.The big Stem isn’t what we’re going for in this.No, it will have Stem in it. Yeah.But it’s going to be a training aid asmuch as it’s going to be a Stem.Training is perfect.It’s an ergogenic aid. Yeah. As much as possible.The performance enhancing drug that’s not banned.We’ll be in a tub this time. Yeah.So we’ve been talked to manufacturer aboutthe mixing process and they’re very confident.And of course our QA, our investigation will comeback and hopefully show that it’s all fine.Yeah.So top of it, very excited.Possibly this year, but it dependson a couple of different things.End of quarter four, start a quarter one.I’d say Q one next year.It should be good to go.It would be a good little pep up in January.People get kind of sad in general. Pep.This will get you this greatright out of that little hole.I’m actually so excited to trythe final, like just the scooper. Yeah.What flavor were we talking about again?Going to be blue, raspberry or else double apple.Oh, yeah. Blue raspberry. Yeah.The manufacturer’s names are so funny on them.I love Zingy Raspberry.I love blue raspberry, though.I love blue raspberry.Oh, you do also love Zingy apples, though.We could call it something stupid. Yeah.Like unicorn stag blood.Are you going to say like unicorn sperm?Unicorn.The nectar of the unicorn. Yeah.Unicorn droplets.We’re sponsoring two jiu jitsu athletes.This is so funny.I’m not sure if I told you this.We’re sponsoring two jiu jitsu athletes.Phenomenal young youth athletes.One of them got silver at Worlds last year.The other one is one Euros more timesthan me and Owen could even count.And they just got a gearsponsor, like a rashgard gee sponsor.And we’re sponsoring them for Eurosand for Worlds, I think.And one of them comes up to me andhe’s, we, Joe, you sent us the logo.Can we do seek a strength butturn the Stag into a unicorn?And I looked at him and Isaid, stuart, under no fucking circumstances areyou turning the Stag into a unicorn.What’s? All sponsorships. That’s how they work.But not do you think we’re giving you moneyto go and compete just so you can furthercrack have a unicorn on your pretty little gee?No, you cannot.You absolutely cannot.Wait, is it the English emblem has the unicorn?Is it or the snow?One of them is unicorn on it. Yeah.Maybe it’s a royal emblem.Not a unicorn, surely.Wales one is the three lions.One of them has a unicorn on it.If someone wants to wales has a dragon.They looked up well there with their thing.We have a fucking shamrock.Like so much cooler things in. What do you mean?I saw the funniest thing ever.There’s this thing going on, the TikTok, whereit’s the Wild Haggis Foundation and everyone’s pretendingthat haggis are a real thing and theygot AI to generate a photo of haggis.So it’s like a little lambwith, like, weird little feet. Oh, my God.I have to show you.Like, the haggis is an animal. Yeah.It’s not like and a load of people believe it.And one fella’s, like, loads of people inthe comments are like, yeah, my great granddaddyused to breed haggis for racing.Look, the last pair of domesticated haggis.What do they think when they eat them now?No, it’s a joke.Like, I know.It’s the Haggis Wildlife Foundation.It’s so funny. So funny.And loads of people are like,I thought haggis weren’t real. It’s so funny.Haggis is amazingly good to eat.Is it basically pudding. Is it?But it’s way better tasting than pudding.It’s like halfway between white pudding andblack pudding, but it tastes way better. What?We like, just saw six wild haggison my way to work today.The rehabilitation is working great.Oh, my God.Right, go on.I chewed a hack.Enough of this tamfoolery.You’d be lucky to hit it.
