In the fall of 1986, Ronald Reagan found himself at the center of a massive scandal that looked like it might bring down his presidency. It became known as the Iran-Contra affair. The things that happened were so bizarre and insane, I can't begin to tell you. Please do.

To hear the whole story, listen to Fiasco, Iran-Contra on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. The Volume. Giannis and the Bucs are scheduled to meet. I scheduled a meeting about the team direction to meet amid trade rumors. According to NBA insider Chris Haynes, I was told the Bucs made contact with Giannis Antetokounmpo early as this morning and sources relayed to me that a meeting is expected to be scheduled for mid-next week.

This is where Giannis is going to have his chance to speak with the Bucks brass and talk about the direction of the team. Giannis responded to a couple of fan questions last night, including the one he was asked his favorite NFL team, Packers-Dallas Cowboys. Do you have a favorite NFL team that would have been in the States for a while? And he said the Packers and the Cowboys.

So obviously, the Packers play in Wisconsin. Milwaukee is in Wisconsin. The Cowboys play in Dallas. Team that's in Dallas is the Mavericks. No, no. Joe, you got to discuss that. So tell me what you're thinking, Joe. This meeting, I'm sure you probably had meetings.

You went, you know, in Phoenix. You ended up from Phoenix, go to Atlanta. Atlanta, you go to the Nets. So, what's going to take place in a meeting of this magnitude? Man, Giannis probably is going to, I would say he's probably going to voice obviously how he feels, and

he's going to ask the direction of his team, and where we're trying to go. Or like, how can we get better? And if it's nothing that appeases him, yeah, I can see him asking for a trade. I can see him asking for a trade, and I've said it all along, and I know people are going to get

Nico a lot of flag, but I say you got to package that Cooper flag, that number one pick, and go get Giannis then. Listen, I'm saying that because, Ocho, listen, hear me out. I got you. Go ahead. As a rookie, I mean, I think he's going to be a pretty good player in his league.

But as a rookie, I just can't see him really helping the Mavericks compete for a championship. You go get Giannis, man, please. You're going to be, I you i mean it's gonna make the west a lot thicker but yannis and ad and kairi because in his current situation ocho yeah in his current situation dame is not going to be there until 2026 right that's if he's lucky. He probably take the whole year and not play next year and don't play till 26, 27. So now,

Giannis by himself is not coming out of the East. And they don't really have pieces that they can go pair and get somebody to come along with Giannis. Because I don't know what the draft compensation looked like. They traded some things, get Dame.

So what you normally would have, you don't have anymore. So with that being said, I don't know what they can tell him that's going to assure him or make him rest comfortably to say, you know what, okay, now Boston, we can challenge Boston. We can challenge the Knicks. We can challenge the Pacers. Really? You think you can?

Clap the Cavaliers. I don't think the way the Milwaukee Bucks are currently constructed, I don't believe they're no better than the, what, fifth, fourth, fifth best team in the East? First round exit. Yeah. But here, I got something else for you, right? Now, when we talk

about where yannis might go and some of the questions he was asked on twitter and this is what i really like about superstar players that had actively engaged with the fans right and this obviously liking the packers liking the cowboys and trying to put two and two together so we can also take a question that was asked to yannis out of all the cities you ever been to which city made you the happiest to be there not counting your hometown and yannis said florida cities now we can take that as well as another hint based on what i told you about my meet with mickey harrison right and spolstra Pat Riley. Now, he answered and said, Florida City. Now, you know he's not talking about Orlando. And the

only other NBA team in Florida is who, Joe? The Heat. Orlando, man, can you imagine what Giannis, and Franz Wagner? Don't do that. Don't do that. Don't do that. Yeah, they better than the Heat

with that, yeah. See how y'all, see how I keep trying to give y'all hints. I'm telling y'all what's going to happen. Y'all not listening to me. Ocho, what the Heat giving up to get Giannis?

Because if you got to give up one of your big guns, there ain't even no point. I mean, what we doing? Right. Hold on. You don't want to give up your big guns, right? But you said they're going to give up the big gun big guns. There ain't even no point. I mean, what are we doing? Right. Hold on. You don't want to give up your big guns, right?

But you said he don't give up the big gun that just got drafted number one to go to goddamn Dallas. He's not proven. He's never played in the league. Yeah. I have a question.

Is Tyler Hero better than Cooper Flagg? Is Tyler Hero better than Cooper Flagg? Come on, come on now. It don't take that long to answer that. Tyler Hero ain't going to put Buss in the seat like Cooper Flagg. Cooper Flagg will be the number one overall pick.

People view him as a generational talent. People don't view Tyler Hero as that. Now, I'm not saying Tyler Hero, I don't know what Cooper Flagg will be, but I'm saying evaluators. If Cooper Flagg and Tyler Hero are in the same draft, who do you think going one? Tyler Hero or Cooper Flagg? Okay. Okay. I know.

I'm understanding what you're saying, but why, if you understand that, he went one for a reason. Yeah. Went one for a reason. But they're saying, right, but the Dallas Mavericks want to win a championship right now at this minute they're like we want to win a championship

the moment they trade Luka we need to win a championship yeah what Joe and I are saying we believe Giannis gets them closer to that than Cooper Flagg

I there's been only one rookie that really can I mean you got to go back Wes Unsell uh uh but Wes

Wes no Wes but he wasn't the MVP of the rookie but I'm saying you got to go back to Wes Unsell. But Wes, no, he wasn't the MVP as a rookie. But I'm saying you got to go back to Magic Johnson. The question is, do you believe Cooper flagged Magic Johnson? Because he's the only guy that can lead a team to a title. Listen, as a rookie, I'm not sure he can do it. But I understand what he's capable of doing. We saw him play at Duke. We understand how special he is.

I think he can make a huge difference. Can he be honest? Let's just say for the sake of doing. We saw him play at Duke. We understand how special he is. I think he can make a huge difference. Can he be Giannis? Let's just say for the sake of argument, Giannis is right now. Ain't nobody going to be Giannis. Giannis gave me $4.35 a night. Okay, well, there you go. In three to four years, yeah,

Cooper Flagg, he probably going to be something to deal with in the NBA, but his rookie year, dealing with that Mavs team who was looking to win right, not now, but right now. Right now, yeah, I understand. Yeah, they... That's the only thing I'm saying, Ocho. That's the only thing I'm saying.

I got you. Listen, I understand what both of y'all are saying. Now, I'm trying to give you as much information as I can without really spilling the beans. But y'all not listening to me. Y'all not listening to me. Y'all not listening to me. So when it actually happens, all I'm going to do,

I'm going to come on the show, I'm going to light up my cigar, and I'm going to say, I told you so. That's it. Because y'all be thinking I be lying and playing and capping and all that. And I'm telling you, I sat in the meeting

with the power players that run the heat organization. And I know what moves are being made. I know what strings are being made. I know what strings are being, being, being pulled behind closed doors. Yeah. But for me,

I agree with you, Joe. I don't know. I don't know what Milwaukee can tell him shorting him short, short of telling him we got a 30% stake in Harley Davidson and we give you 15% of it. Other than that, I don't know.

Honestly, honestly, because when you look at the way this team, who, I mean, what piece can you trade? Dame is injured, an Achilles injury, and I think he's like, what, 32, 33 years of age. Okay, with that being said, and he's gone for the entire year. What pieces, if I'm not mistaken, what, Brooke Lopez might be a free agent.

You got Bobby Portis. I'm trying to figure out what do you have. You don't have a whole lot of draft capital because you're trading that up to get Dame. And you don't have pieces outside of Giannis. Giannis is going to probably want to lead. Can I tell you what this meeting is about? What? Every time football season ended, what meeting did we have with the coach at the end of the season?

What's it called? It's the exit meeting. And that's what the meeting is about. They already had theirs. They've been out of the playoff for two weeks. They've been out of that. I know. Listen, they've been having an extra one.

I don't know why they have an extra one because there's nothing they can do. There's nothing that they can do in putting the trade off that can make them a contender and have them not being bounced out the first round again. Giannis is going back in that room. There's nothing. There's nothing you can pull. You can't pull no rabbit out the hat and all of a sudden say,

listen, Giannis, this is what we can do for our team. That's going to put us in contention. Absolutely nothing. So the fact that he's even having a meeting again about nothing makes no sense. Hey, listen. Ocho, what y'all think about Giannis going to the Lakers? That's a problem.

You don't have no goddamn bench. You're going to have to get a few guys from the G League. That's what you're going to have. Joe, they might call you up. Joe, they might call you up. You got 15 minutes in you? I got 15 to 18 minutes in me.

I got that. I got that. I got that. I got that. Hey, I can do that with no problem. Listen, if Giannis, Giannis, Luka, and LeBron are on the same team, every goddamn game for 82 weeks is going to be three on five. Nah, they got some other guys who can step up and play. They can make it work.

You get them three on the team, you're going to have to make it work. We said the same thing about Bradley Beal, Kevin Durant, and goddamn Devin Booker. No, but Bradley Beal and Devin Booker are the same people. Hey, look, Ocho, the Lakers missing that big, Giannis will be a major piece for them. Giannis play the four. He don't play the five. Yeah, that boy gonna play the five,

the four, the three, the two, and the one. What you talking about? Hey, look, he can do a multitude of things. I think, you know, he'll open up the offense and give guys easy buckets. Obviously, he'll take the pressure off LeBron. He won't have to do as much. Defensively, he's going

to... Come on, man. Yeah. You're right. I just think in the NBA this summer, I think we're going to see some superstars move around. I agree. And it's going to be amazing to see. I think it's going to be good for the league.

Hey, don't be surprised. What you call them trying to pull this? You watch Golden State. Golden State going to try to get in the league. And, you know, hey, don't be surprised. Hey, what you call them trying to pull this? You watch Golden State. Golden State going to try to get in the mix. Watch. What, who, Giannis? Yep. Yeah.

What you think about Giannis for Kaminga and some picks? I think Golden State got picks. I think they got draft capital. But I think they want a superstar back in return. Like who? They're going to want a Cooper flag. They're going to want, they're going to want all,

all star level player. Yeah. I can see that. Like, and you know, you said, you said superstars can, can,

can y'all give me, give me two other names or maybe just one other name that might be on the move this off season. Well, we know Kevin,ant's going to leave. Kevin Durant's moving. Yeah. You know, KD got a place in Miami, huh? Yeah.

Yeah. Okay. But Ishba, you're going to have to satisfy because of what he gave up to get KD. You're going to have to satisfy that. And I don't know if the Knicks have that. Now look, when you start dealing with these superstar players, you probably get multiple teams involved. Mm-hmm.

Because it's going to have to, you're going to have to fix, you know, the puzzle will have to, you know, fit. That'll make sense. So you're going to probably have, you'll see a lot of 3-4 teams moving these pieces but I think this is going to be probably one of the most one of the busiest summers that we've seen in a very long time

but I can tell you what I can tell you what Joe you know the summer is going to be very busy but I can tell you how the season will go next year and I can tell you who coming out the motherfucking east Miami Heat you heard me y'all see y'all don't want to listen I'm going to tell you who's coming out the motherfucking East. Who? Go ahead. Miami Heat. Oh, boy. You heard me?

Oh, Joe. Y'all see, y'all don't want to listen. Every time I say something, y'all never want to listen to it because I'm black. You said that about Cincinnati going to make the playoffs. That's why you owe me $5,200. You told me Miami Heat was going to come out to what you call them? The play-in. I told you we didn't make it out of the first round

because everybody got food poisoning. The whole team had food poisoning. That's why we lost. I don't know what they got. But they got you in debt. I'm going to pay you $5,200, man. I told you. I'm going to let Justine get my money back.

I'm done with it. I'm going to send Justine to collect my money. I'm going to wash up. I'm going to let Justine get my money back. I'm done with it. I'm going to send Justine to collect my money. I'm going to wash up. I'm going to wash up. Yeah, all right. Evan Brown played the playoffs with a partially torn right meniscus, according to Ramona Shelburne. JB missed Boston's final three regular season games,

and with the injury, but was able to modify his game and play through the pain during the playoffs he will reportedly be evaluated this week to determine if surgery is necessary what you thinking joe meniscus it's not that bad but obviously anytime you have to go up under that knife oh i i hate it but you know he gutted it out i thought you know for him playing with a torn meniscus he you know he did he did everything he could man to help the seeds try to advance or repeat but it just wasn't enough uh no i just i hope i'll be good i hope boston in general just get healthy and uh able to you know come back back next year. Obviously, Tatum won't be there, but, you know, try to, man, make some good out of this.

But, yeah, this is very, very unfortunate for them. Well, the best thing, he and Tatum got their money. So that's something that's not at the front of their mind, like, damn, I just cost myself X. You got the contract, you straight. That's why I'm telling JT, bro, don't you rush back. You make sure you come back, and when you come back, you're the same JT

that we remember when you left. Nothing less. I know you're going to put the work in, but don't rush back. You don't have anything to prove. You're about to be a four-time first-team All-NBA selection. You've gone to the All-Star Game. You won two Olympic gold medals. And you won a championship.

Yeah. Is that true, though, Joe? Is that true? What? Just because he won a championship is the monkey off his back? He had nothing to prove? Yeah, man.

No, I didn't say he had everything to prove. I'm saying he don't have a reason to rush back. Oh, to rush back. Okay, okay. i see what you're saying i think uh i think especially in the game in basketball you know you're measured by your championships obviously you know they they done been there numerous of times but they did get one so yeah i don't think uh there's no pressure for him on the you know rush back or any of that. I just think, you know, you need to get healthy, get 100%,

then come back and, you know, try and do it all over again, man. But, you know, injuries are a part of the game. I know we hate them. And it's just very, very unfortunate, bro. It is. And that's the thing, you know. And, like, we talked about Joe. Kevin Durant took 18 months.

Remember, he tore his Achilles in 2019, in June of 2019. He didn't play that season. He didn't play. And remember, he didn't play that season. And in the start, it was the bubble. He didn't play that. And then he didn't really come back until later. And KD looked like he had never missed a beat.

Yeah. Never missed a beat. But he didn't rush back. He was like, no, bro, y'all not finna rush me back. Y'all not finna put me back out there, and I'm not ready to play, and I'll re-injure this thing. So I think that's the thing for me, and that's why I'm telling him, Ocho, no. I'm not saying he's like, listen,

the thing about pro sports is that you have to update your resume. You don't get the resume, oh, I did this, and no, no, you're not straight. Because every year you play, you're out there for a reason. You're trying to prove something. If not only to yourself, you're trying to prove something. Yeah. So you don't get to say, well, I won a championship five years ago. Okay, and?

You still playing now, so what are you playing for? If you're not trying to win a championship, what are you playing for? So with that being said, I just think the thing is for him i just wanted to get 100 healthy and then come back and be jason tatum that we remember the last thing in my mind i saw about jason tatum before i saw him crumple on the floor he had 42 yeah That's what I remember. He was balling. 42. He was balling. Right. Nice. Yeah, he'll get back there. I think he'll get back to 100%.

He'll get back to the player that he's accustomed to being. You know, the one thing, you get out there with an injury, man, you can't move the way you're accustomed to move and do the things that you're accustomed to doing. Like, that's frustrating. So, I'm with you. Take your time heal yourself up strengthen your body get your mind right and come back and get back to it

because the injuries like ocho somebody telling you ocho you can't have fun man stop the antics playing football ocho tuck your jersey ocho get rid of the orange train strap, Ocho. So that's like a player. He's used to being one way. Jason Tatum is used to being great. Now all of a sudden, he rushes back, and then he's not what we remember. That's what really does mess with a player, a professional athlete mentally, when I can't do what I once could. That's why it sucks getting old.

Man, I remember, whew, I can't do what I once could. That's why it sucks getting old. Man, I remember, whoo, I can't do none of what, whoo, all you have is memories. Nah, that ain't good enough. That's not good enough for the great. Now, if you just, you know, you play and you play a sport, and I'm not trying to diminish anybody,

but obviously there are levels. But when you're that great, it's hard not to be that great especially when you're still in your 20s now he get 40 I mean it's tough for LeBron even though LeBron is still playing at elite level he knows that he can't do what he did when he was

28 when he was 32 or even 35 but it would have been something entirely different if his athleticism had dissipated here he is 28, from 28 to 29. Like, what the hell happened to me? Made for This Mountain is a podcast that exists to empower listeners

Right now, at 47, Joe, I can come off the bench for any team right now and contribute. You can't do that, Ocho. What you talking about, boy? What's your best attribute? Give me your best attribute.

What's your best attribute? What you do? What you do what? My best attribute? Give me your best attribute. What's your best attribute? What you do? What you do with? My best attribute? Lying. Nah. I'm saying, hey, look, if I go to the squad, Ocho, I'm like, hey, look, I got Ocho. I need to be able to give him description of what it is, or descriptive of what it is that you do.

What is it that you do? Matter of fact, see, that's the thing, though. That's the thing, Joe. That's what makes me so special on the court, Joe. You can't even describe what I'm going to bring to the team. I'm efficient, right? I'm efficient. One-on-one, I can put the ball on the floor.

Anybody you put on me is a mismatch. You can't even really double that. You can't really double, because if you double, you just got to kick that bitch out. We got to make sure everybody else hit their shot. Now, somebody like me coming out the bench like I'm up tell you I'm a mixture of Russell Westbrook and D Rose and his prime like that's how I play So if y'all bring me in the big I'm telling you then not only am I gonna put bus in the seats

I'm gonna put up points Okay, okay, you ain't gotta pay me cuz I got like 50 some dumb job. Okay money And you ain't even got to pay me because I got like 57,000 jobs. Okay. I don't need no money. I just want an opportunity. Okay. I got it. But see, he was talking so fast, Joe.

You didn't hear what he said. He said he'd be efficient. He made him say efficient. He said efficient. But you missed that part, but don't worry about it. Joe, never forget, Joe, when I was in high school, every Saturday I dropped 56, 12, and 10. Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on.

Every Saturday? We played on Saturdays in high school. Man, now in high school. You play a couple times a week in high school, right, Joe? In high school, we play on Tuesdays and Fridays, man. And Saturday, them little boy games, man. I didn't say no little boy games. I played class 6A.

I told you Ash Udonis about me. Ash Udonis. Ask Ash Udonis about me. I did him in high school. I'll kill her. The team playing on Saturday, man. That's like junior high ball, bro. That's like that's a beat, Ojo. Hey, Joe. Joe.

He only peaked one day. Sometimes we play three times a week. Sometimes we play like Monday or we'll play a Tuesday a week. Sometimes we play, we play, we play like Monday or we'll play a Tuesday and we play Friday or we'll play Friday, Saturday game. But we play sometimes two to three times a week. We just didn't have no one day a week to play. Hey, listen to me, Joe. I play in Miami sometime, right? I play in Miami in open locker, right? I'd be at Pepper Paul, right? I'd be out there with my boy, you know, I'd be out there with my Zo zoes and my yanks we'd be out there having a good time you know i go out there joe just as a

Give me six every game. Hey, they say a lot. I don't care who tell it, dude. One thing about it, listen, the fat lady ain't seen yet. Nah, we were the 15.

We were the 15. Ocho Lem was the one on one. The first game is the 15. All the games are the 15. No, no, no. The first game, when everybody comes to the park, the first game, the 15.

Every game after that, it's 11. That's why every time you say, I want to play Joe, we're going to go to 11, because I know he ain't going to make it to 15. But I thought that was a one-on-one. That's what the one-on-one is, the 11. I thought everything else. Listen, Joe is handicapped when it comes to playing against me.

That's why I'm going to 11. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. How I'm handicapped playing against you? You're too slow. Oh. Joe, you don't understand how quick I am. Joe, this ain't no joke. What? Man, listen.

Joe, this ain't no joke. What? We're going to have to get this thing here jumping. Hey, I don't need it. You're going to have excuses. The first thing they'll say, oh, man, it's time to play. I told them I'd come to Atlanta. First thing they'll say,

oh, I came today. I got to be with the wife. Oh, I came today. I got to walk the dog. You're going to have all types of excuses. I guarantee you. No, I'm going to make sure. I'm going to hit my people over there

for the Hawks. I'm going to make sure we get the practice facility so we can go in there and get on. It ain't going to be... We going in the gym? Yeah, we going in the gym. What you mean? I want to

play outside i'm in a concrete tube it's too hard on your knee oh there you go there we go there we go there we go hey he done grew up in buckingham palace he don't want to play outside hey he done grew up with a silver spoon in his mouth hey Hey, Joe, you got a problem with roaches? Like, does that bother you? Does roaches bother you? Yeah. Yeah, see? Yeah, it's a bougie-ass nigga, man.

He don't want to hoop, man. He done gone Hollywood. Hey, anybody that say they got a property, they don't want to hoop. CD Lab was talking about George Pickens and said, we're both ones. Ocho, are the Cowboys going to be a problem? Ain't they going to be a problem because I told you they was both ones. That's why I said what I said.

Now, what everybody can do, they can't take out their head on vision. They thinking about everything pickens was doing when he was in pittsburgh i would be ready to now i'm not talking about the loafing i'm not talking about the lack of blocking and i'm not talking about being lazy on certain plays which cause interceptions i'm talking about being in a new environment a new scenery with a nice great with a good quarterback a top quarterback that can get you the ball and they're going to use him. They're going to use him. There's not going to be no problems.

And he's telling the truth. The goddamn Bengals got two number ones. The Philadelphia Eagles got two number ones. Hell, even the Commanders now got two number ones. Even though some people don't see Debo Sam as a one, but he do so goddamn much. He might as well be a fucking one. They're going to be alright. I'm telling you,

the Cowboys, listen, I know the Eagles won the Super Bowl last year, but if the Cowboys win the division, I'm the first one to say it. I'm the first one to say it. Look at what offensively, look at what Saquon Barkley did for

the Cowboys from an offensive perspective. Yeah, but who is that Saquon? I'm not mentioning him right now. I'm saying to counter that, to counter that, I'm saying Pickens are going to take it up and make up even more of the production on the other side. That's all I'm saying. Oh, okay.

You done watched Nick take a six-yard slant 70. Yeah. You done watched him catch 60 take a six-yard slant 70. Yeah. You done watched them catch 60 or 70-yard bombs. You know, CD going slicing dice out there. Obviously, hey, CD Lamb. He's rock. He's yak. He's rap.

You know? I mean, he can go deep, too. But he make his money short near the median and turn him into long balls. Listen, it's hard for me to explain, but you'll see when it happens. And one thing about a football joke, I'll never be wrong. So you're saying them Cowboys are going to be like that this year? They're going to be like that offensively. Now, what they do on defense, I don't know nothing about that.

I don't know nothing about that, but I can tell you what's going to happen offensively. You got to pick a point, then we're going to stop. But go ahead. Michael Parsons tweeted CD done found a new best friend. Mack Wilson Sr. music has taken

the internet by storm. Rockin' Ship, Mack's stage name has become a hit online. And with a full EP dropping Friday, the 27-year-old linebacker was asked a critical question, Super Bowl or Grammy? Super Bowl, bro. I'd rather win the Super Bowl. I love rapping as well. Don't get me wrong.

But it doesn't take away from my passion I have for the game. Mack Wilson. Who he play for? Cardinals. What year is this for him, Mark? 27, so probably his fourth or fifth. So he's going to drop that hour. Who that?

Yeah. He got a full LP. You got EP up there. EP. Live, I mean, Grammy or Super Bowl? I mean, if you're in football, I mean, well, I mean, Nathaniel's kind of hard because he's doing both. I mean, normally a football player, you know, like Kobe, I think the first one meant a lot.

But, you know, when Kobe won the Oscar for that animation of Dear Basketball, I had never seen him. I don't know if I've seen him that happy when he won his first championship. I've never seen nobody, I've never seen a player more excited about retirement than I saw Kobe I saw him at an event I think Quincy Jones would get the honor and I went to an event and got an opportunity to sit and talk to him

I ain't never seen nobody so happy and his passion he was as passionate about that animation and what he was doing as he was basketball and I can see why he won an Oscar and I can see why he was doing as he was basketball. Yeah. And I can see why he won an Oscar. And I can see why he was going to do big things in the film industry because that same passion that he had, that same burning desire,

the unquenchable thirst, he had it for that. Yeah. And that's why, that's why people are successful. That's why a lot of times people that are, that are like professional athletes or people that are successful in one business become successful in other business. Because when you're passionate about something, you're passionate about it and you go all in. And so when you're passionate about something, you're not concerned about the hours that you got to work. You're not tired from doing it.

You're just doing it because that's your passion. And you feel that my passion will be rewarded at the end of the day i don't know when ain't no time nearly no no one month or no five months no year all i know is that this hard work is going to pay off and you know what else when it comes when it comes to stuff like when people love opening businesses or like to say oh i want to open a business or i want to do something but when they're looking they're looking for a quick turnaround too huh quick turnaround there's no quick turnaround to success at all and then no those that take shortcuts it's short-lived it's all it's always short-lived but when you're passionate about something and you're willing to put the work in even if it's a slow process or it's a slow grind

whatever it is because you're passionate about it you know at some point that work is going to pay off. Going to pay off. It always does, Joe. It does. Everything you do, it always pays off. It might take a month. It might take a year. Hell, it might take five.

But because it's something you like and you continue to pour in it, and as you continue to pour in it, at some point, when you pour a glass, when you pour too much water in the glass, at one point it'll do what, huh? Old flow. Hey, listen, I agree with both of you. I think, you know, as professional athletes, we have an obsession of what it is that we do, whether it's football, basketball, whatever the case may be.

And once you're done, it's hard to turn that off. So you take that obsession obsession you take it into the business world whether you start a podcast whether you open up a yoga studio or whatever the case may be and that's the thing that kind of keeps you going you know what i mean you understand what it takes to kind of get to that next level what it is you're trying to do and nope it's not gonna happen overnight it's gonna take some time it's gonna take some nurturing you're trying to do. And nope, it's not going to happen overnight. It's going to take some time. It's going to take some nurturing. You're going to have to baby it.

You're going to have to water it. You're going to have to watch it grow. And that's just a part of it. And, you know, being a, as I used to be a professional athlete, that's the only thing I did. I went from playing ball, took everything I learned from basketball as far as having to heal myself and know how to take care of myself and just brought it into the yoga world.

And man, I've been running ever since, bro. I like it. I like it. You know, another small example too, I'm thinking about this too. We talk about passion,

you know, and things that you like to do. Hell, I love to talk. I love to talk. You know, sometimes I don't make no sense of what I'm talking about based on the goddamn topic.

But let's take nightcap for instance, right? Yeah. Shit, you hit me. I come to LA. Shit, if I love to talk, shit, being on nightcap, oh, that's perfect.

Let's talk about journey. Let's talk about having a passion for something, right? Sometimes it's high. Sometimes it's low. You know? Yeah. When things aren't going well, it's fine.

Like I told you, we don't weather the storm that's it okay there's a crack well shit we get some goddamn gorilla goo nigga pass that bitch up and you keep on going that's it it's simple man and boy it to the wheels fall off man we gonna keep rolling. Yeah. And like most athletes, especially when you're good, they have discipline. Yeah. And when you start a business, you've got to have discipline. Yep. A lot of it.
