What is up guys, it's Andy Frisella and this is the show for the realest, say goodbye to the lies, the fakeness and delusionsusions of modern society. And welcome to motherfucking reality. Guys, today we have QNAF. That's where my boy DJ. What's up, dude? White Lightning. White Lightning. I haven't heard that in a while.

The fee is very simple. If you learn something, if it made you think, if it made you, uh, have a new perspective, if you thought it was value, if it made you entertain,

if you laughed in the car, fucking share the show. Okay. We don't run ads on the show. I can make fucking $10 million a year running ads on the show. I don't do it. Cause I don't want to annoy your fucking ears. All right.

I just like to annoy them with me. All right. So, uh, what we got today bro got some good ones for you brother got some good ones man uh it's monday it's a good day yeah we're here yeah we got the hawk show just came out hawk show just came out which i thought was cool dude it was awesome i think we shook some shit up man yeah look dude listen we're all the same out here man like that's what these fucking media motherfuckers don't want anybody to realize yeah i was just dming with my with one of my uh my relatives who happens to be very very liberal and even she was like yeah this shit's fucking crazy dude and like dude they understand everybody's starting to understand what's

happening in this country it's a it's an intentional self-destruction uh leveraged by foreign interests on our country and if we don't fucking stop it guys we aren't going to have a fucking country and everybody's seeing it dude yeah everybody even the people that voted for biden dude i like i knew the like so we gotta i mean the point is bro is like we got to start working together 100 and i think that was one of my biggest takeaways, man, because like, you know, especially if you're, you know,

middle leaning right, or you're all the way on the right, you don't realize like the misinformation goes just as much on their end as well. Right. Because they're the ones we're going against in this division world. Right. Like,

but like, do like, I mean, having them explain more of his principles and where exactly it was coming from. That's the shit. The left media doesn't tell you. They don't tell tell you any they take a quick soundbite they fucking put it on the tv they fucking put a put hawk newsome on for 30 seconds he sounds like a

fucking terrorist right same shit they do to people like me exactly right like so and that's how him and i connected because like we both get fucking lied about in the public and so i saw that clip and i'm like bro that ain't that ain't what you really think is it and he's like no and i'm like well then come down and that's how we became boys yeah you know it was awesome episode i was just glad to be not only that dude we fucking went to dinner we fucking hung out with those dudes the whole time dude those guys are fucking american dudes they're patriots just like we are they just want their fucking issues addressed right and i can

respect that you know and and they don't make it seem that way on on uh on tv or in the news you know and then another thing is too i'll say this hawk wouldn't you know didn't want to say it's fine but these motherfuckers have hijacked that movement oh 100 they kicked all the black men out of the movement and they made an lgbtq pro-women movement and bro like what the fuck you know like men what can men do now and like this is really actually a man problem in america you motherfuckers that are men you just stand the fuck up for yourselves for real dude because we're gonna fucking lose this country if motherfuckers don't start taking charge of it 100 so anyway i was thankful that he made the trip i was all talk if you're listening bro i love you

man steph too yeah yeah yeah steph mcguy yeah steph's cool no they're definitely family man i thought it was awesome to have them on man i think it was it was awesome i somebody told me i told you this earlier but somebody told me it's like man i can't believe andy did that i'm like well see that's fucking misinformation right there that's the lie why would you think that right right oh because i'm white and i'm outspoken and i'm a patriot that means i'm a fucking racist no it doesn't mean that it doesn't mean any of the shit they fucking lie about bro you only think that because somebody told you that's right that's right dude and by the way uh both sides are guilty of that yeah Yeah. Both sides are guilty of that.

100%. 100%. So, dude, look, man. Shit's changing. 100%. Young blood's coming, dude. So, these motherfuckers, these old establishing fucks, dude, y'all just should retire. Because if you keep pushing and keep pushing and keep pushing, it ain't going to retirement how your fucking deal ends that's that's how it's going to go tyranny does not stop

itself ever it has to be stopped and when everybody sees it and everybody fucking gets together what's going to happen why are they building a wall around the white house right now that's a great question why are they building a concrete wall around the white house because they see these conversations what do they expect happen what do they think is going to happen are they planning on doing the same thing in 2022 that they did in 2020 and they understand that if they do that there's going to be mass civil unrest or they're hearing conversations with you and hawk i'm just saying that the people are starting to wake up and realize this shit you know i'm just saying dude we're being we have a rogue regime that is not serving america there it's a dereliction of duty it's treasonous and bro people need to fucking wake the fuck up you know we're we're we're doing

all kinds of things in this country if there was a checklist bro check by check by check by check on how to destroy this country they're checking all the boxes they hit all of them bro listen but that's the misconception right people sit around and they're like oh yeah dude you know these guys are fucked biden's a fucking idiot sacky's an idiot these people are stupid they're making bad decisions no no you're the idiot yes they are sitting there behind closed doors saying everything's going exactly as planned 100 and you guys are falling for it and until we fucking get that together bro i don't know what the fuck's gonna change you know what i'm saying i'm not saying violence by the way i don't preach violence that's not

what i'm preaching i'm preaching unity i'm preaching fucking understanding that we all live underneath this same fucking banner and we should all care about each other as if we were family members that's how it should work everybody has an interest in living here everybody should be treated fairly and we have been robbed and taken advantage of and oppressed by our own government not not just for the last two years, but actually for a long fucking time. Very long. Okay? And so, dude, we need change.

We need change from the ground up. We need to get rid of these establishment political figures. We need fresh ideas, fresh blood, youth, experience of real world. Maybe you served in the military. Maybe you built a company. Maybe you built a small business in your city. But you've done something. These people haven't done anything, but take our money and figure out a way to put it in

their pockets. And that's what's been going on. So until we smarten the fuck up and until we start working together, nothing's going to change. United, we stand. Divided, we fall. There's a reason for that saying. So I hope that that show will start to make people realize,

hey, we ain't the enemies that they make us seem like we are. Nor are we that different. I'll tell you what, bro. That dinner we had with Hawk was probably one of the best fucking times I've had in a long time. We were laughing our fucking ass off the whole fucking night. Yeah. And they get great food too.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Always great food. Twisted tree, bro. So anyway, um, yeah. What we got? That's nice.

Open. No, I like it. So I got three questions for you, Andy. So, uh, let's knock these out. Question number one, would you rather lose a dollar or a thousand dollars? I'm fucking. Ha. If you know, you know. No, but Andyy what was hard what was harder for you though making you making your first dollar are you making your first million what was what was harder for you

well i mean dude obviously the first million like real real talk like anybody can make a few bucks doing some shit right like kids make money every day selling fucking lemonade. You know, but I think for a lot of people, it is the first dollar. And I'll tell you why. Because they don't get started. They fucking sit here and they listen to people like me or they listen to people like Ed Milet or other credible business figures. And they try to take all the fucking notes that they can. And, you know, they think and they ponder and they design and they never get

started because they're overanalyzing. They think they need to be an expert before they go when in reality, the expertise comes from just going and learning, right? Like it's not this direct line. People think it's a direct line from you're beginning to becoming a millionaire. That's not how it works, bro. You're going to make 10 grand and you're going to lose 20 and you're going to make 21. Right. And then, you know, you're going to, you're going to lose one and then it's going

to go back and forth and back and forth. And every time you lose, that's a lesson. And you put that fucking tool that you create from that lesson that contributes to your actual skills in your pocket and you remember it. Right. And then you don't make that same mistake again. And then eventually all of these new skills start to accumulate where you're not making these mistakes. And guess what happens? Your money starts to go up and that's how it works, bro. And, and, uh, so, you know, there's, there's two answers, you know, like literally the first million is way harder. Right but i think from a mindset you know the first dollar is the hardest one that people uh have have to get because they don't even ever get started

right like i know so many motherfuckers do to follow me that dm me every fucking day they're cool ass people but they've been talking about the dreams that they wanted that they wanted for seven years and they're still loyal to me i'm like bro what are you doing still listening to me i taught you everything you know more than a fucking enough to go make something. So, and I'd also give you my perspective. Um, and this is the truth and this is going to hurt some fucking feelings, but I don't really care. Cause it's the truth. Cause I want to encourage people to start. Okay. I coach high level entrepreneurs. I've been around high-level entrepreneurs, quote-unquote high-level entrepreneurs for, fuck, a decade, right? A lot of these people that I meet who have successful businesses literally couldn't even work in my fucking

business, okay? So I hope you know that the vast majority of successful business owners are just products of fucking doing what i just said they don't actually know everything they just were the guys that went you know i'm saying like fuck dude one of my buddies who was a 200 million dollar guy he couldn't spell that he couldn't spell r or hour like he spelled it a-r-e no shit yeah so like it was a-r-e every time like so like this dude didn't even know how to fucking spell or type he's worth 200 million. A lot of it is just going, you know, and you don't have to be an expert day one. The expertise comes from the experience of going. So, you know, that's, that's my answer.

You know, that first, I will say that first million is really fucking hard. It's a lot easier than it ever has been though. Yeah. It's a lot easier than it ever has been. We have higher technology, faster technology, new opportunities opportunities uh you know fuck all kinds of things and and you know that's a great thing and you guys hear me poo-poo on that sometimes and say oh dude fuck you guys with the technology and because a lot of these kids get too wrapped up into it and they fail to be abused yeah well they fail to take the cash flow from this and invest it into a real company and a real company

is where you're going to want to have it, right? Because that way you have an asset that you're investing into that also provides back cashflow. Okay. So like I'm making all kinds of money right now, but I also have an asset that's worth billions of dollars. Okay. So like a few of them actually. So like, you know, that's, that's what you want. You don't want to just have a store that, that feeds you. And then if you flip the switch off, it's over. Right.

That's just cash technology. Yeah. You want both. And so like a lot of these kids are missing that point. Like you guys have a tremendous opportunity to generate, you know, strong cashflow, which you should be then instead of buying a fucking

hurricane laying into a foundation of a real company guys. So yeah, that's my answer, bro. No, that's awesome. Yeah, that's awesome. So get that first dollar, man. That's way more important than that first million. That's real. Andy, our second question for you.

What was the biggest quote unquote insult that you've ever received that you're proud of? Oh man. Well, fuck dude. I've been called pretty much everything. I mean, look dude, here's the thing. Here's the thing guys. If you're going to be somebody and you're going to, you're going to stand for things and you're going to build things, people are going to criticize you and they're going to find every little crack in your armor and they're going to try to exploit that and i can tell you the best thing that you can do is to say yeah that's exactly right that's what i am you know what i'm not perfect i'm not a perfect human i'm not a perfect human by the way like literally you know what i'm saying like i'm learning every day i'm improving every day i'm trying to get better every day i'm trying to be a better man every

fucking day and that's the game nobody perfect. This cancel culture bullshit has got everybody scared to even step out and try something. Right. Right. You fuck those people. Those people are fucking nothing. Those cancel culture fuck people. They sit at home and they do nothing. By the way, it's a myth anyway, too, because I've been canceled like 47 fucking times. And honestly, every single time I've gotten canceled, my business went up because what it did was a shed light on who i was what i'm about because not everybody just believes these fucking people right so you get you're going to get people that that come in and they these people promote you by saying you're a shithead right and then a lot of their followers who don't

necessarily think that because they actually look before they fucking buy into it they actually look at me and they're like well fuck dude i don't know he's pretty cool yeah seems cool and and then your business grows right so it's it's free marketing bro go get canceled no i'm dude i'm dead serious that's real i had that event at my house this weekend with all kinds of business owners that love freedom we had democrats we had republicans we had everybody for fucking young old all these motherfuckers are multi you know 10 to fucking a billion 10 million to a billion level guys right every fucking one of them every one of them is scared shitless to stand up for fucking america because they're afraid they're gonna lose and if you could figure out right now that there's a huge opportunity to stand for america and win because these people who hate america will promote you for free bro that's ninja shit

yeah all right so stop being afraid of this shit let it wash off your back realize that the people that are saying that shit about you aren't doing anything in real life and fuck them you know that's the truth as far as insults that i've gotten that i'm proud of i mean fuck dude you know all of them yeah you know i'm i'm happy that i'm at a point where people feel need to criticize me that's real you see what i'm saying like bro 20 years ago no one gave a fuck who i was 10 years ago nobody gave a fuck who i was right when i started posting motivational shit people are like oh who fuck do you think you are? Tony Robbins?

No, motherfucker. I'm Andy Frisella. True. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. And like, dude, you have to fucking stand the fuck up for who the fuck you are. So like, you know, I don't know. I've had a number.

Dude, look, I've had it all, bro. I've had people. I've had, dude, I can tell you this. I'll just say this. This is the nicest way to say it. I've had probably two or three people in my life that didn't say that I was fucking a loser. That didn't say that I was wasting my time. That didn't say I was a fucking dreamer.

Bro, when I was in first grade, I can remember this. I had a teacher, her name was Mrs. Corey. All right? I was in first fucking grade. And I remember being like all energetic and shit and like i was kind of hyper right and i was a happy kid bro yeah and she pulled me aside and she fucking said she goes i know you're a happy kid and i know you're you're energetic and i know this but you know you you need to work to fit in with everybody else and i remember that bro that's damaging no shit yeah and i remember that it was in 1980 fucking six i remember watching the chat where damaging no shit yeah and i remember that it was in 1980

fucking six i remember watching the chat where i have a photographic memory i have the challenger fucking watching we watch the challenger explode on fucking tv in that class dude and that i can remember her telling me that so you fucking teachers that listen to this shit you better realize that every motherfucking thing that you say to these kids they remember yeah you know you tell a motherfucker to fall in line stay in line i told her in my brain fuck you right then right you know what i'm saying i never fit in with anybody and that's what the fuck i'm doing now i don't care yeah you know like i don't care if you don't like me like that's the thing i'm not trying to fucking get you to like me i don't care all i'm doing is sharing what i know and hopefully you'll take it

and do something and later on you'll man, he told me the truth. And he was right. That's it. So like, you know, all of them, to be honest, because if I'm on someone's radar, it means I own space in their fucking brain. Fuck, man. That's deep. See what I'm saying?

That's some deep shit right there. I don't really worry about the criticism. Say whatever the fuck you want. I really don't care. You know I don't oh yeah yeah like in fact the truth is is that most of the fucking shit y'all say about me i see and i don't respond and i just make me and dj sit here bro motherfucker if i fucking spit back at you and ruin your life like you guys ain't witty you come up with some better shit no shit yeah how many motherfuckers

have i put on blast and delete their whole fucking life off the internet that's why i don't do it anymore because i don't want to end someone's social media career yeah because they decide to come at me because they were in a bad mood that because your people know oh bro it's moves people take shit out on you that isn't you like i i don't take shit personal bro i i see these these people they get mad at me they criticize me they say shit and i'm like well i guess he's having a bad day yeah you know because i didn't do anything to that guy you know what i'm saying yeah what yeah and honestly that's something i learned from gary v uh more and more you know i'm friends with gary and gary fucking has been a real good influence on me in that way i used to take that shit real personal now i'm just like man he's probably

having a bad day yeah you know and what i what made me realize that was i would start to dm some of these people who like this is now i don't do this anymore but back a few years start sending them fucking hate hate dms jazz no no i dm them i know i don't answer like that anymore at all uh i would dm these people back and be like bro what's up with this like you know and that and then you know almost they would always say bro i'm just having a bad day bro i fucking and they would tell me some some really bad shit that happened to him yeah you know so like you guys got to remember that it's not just you everybody you are not the focus of everybody else everybody else has a lifetime of problems a fucking lifetime of issues a lifetime of you know damage that they've had to work through

and sometimes they see somebody else doing some good shit and they don't like it because they're not doing it and it's just it is what it is man yeah you know i i don't know dude i think i had a i had one time i had uh i went to this company that at the time was a three or $400 million company. And they were the biggest company in our industry. And I went to visit them. This was 2010. And I had an idea for the industry, our industry that we're in that I thought would be the new way of how to do it.

Remember, we were transitioning from, you probably don't remember, but we were transitioning from traditional media into social media advertising around that era. And I went there, I visit them. At the time, remember, I'm nobody, right? I spend- First one, we just got started.

Yeah, yeah. I spent like two, I spent like fucking probably three hours drawing this whole thing up on the board showing these dudes and they fucking laughed at me you know i'm saying and you know what they said well you should go do it yourself and now i'm glad they told me that but at the time they didn't tell me that as like thinking i would actually do it they told me that like get the fuck out of here kid right and now we're fucking way bigger than them like way we're probably fucking five times the size of them wow so should have listened

motherfuckers yeah no shit i would have fixed your shit no shit so that's one that comes to my top of my head and i'm not gonna say names but you know it is what it is yeah so that's all they're watching and i know it keep watching yeah cool all right so transitioning to that we got our last question for you andy um and if you've you've committed the last 23 years of your life to literally changing people's lives through health and fitness right um and i'm sure you've seen the industry change every fucking day, right? Where do you see the health and fitness industry in 10 years? What's your goal? I think it's going to be 10 times bigger, but I think it's not going to be like, listen,

this virus has really like changed people's perspective. People are, whether or not it's's justified a lot of people are fucking scared yeah they're mentally fucked fucking fucked because of the mental abuse they had to go through for the last two years believing that they couldn't breathe the fucking air right but i think what's happened is a lot of these people who have i know for sure because i see them they i see them i posted one the other day who lost 170 pounds like bro people are doing the work now not everybody but a lot more people that weren't because they're finding reasons that are more important than just looking at themselves in the mirror that affect other people outside of them

they're realizing that like a new virus could come and it could affect overweight people and 80 of people that get it could be susceptible to dying like shit like that. Like these people are waking up. So I think we're going to become more health conscious. I think we're going to be, I think the whole culture is going to explode even more than it has. And it's going to keep moving that you couple that with the, with the lost faith in the, in the medical system and like actual pharmaceuticals and shit.

I mean, dude, it's healthy lifestyle. Yeah. So i think it's going to keep going i i i know it's going to keep it's going to keep going and i don't even think we've even seen the beginning of the growth of this industry i think i think for the last 20 years we've been trying to convince someone that they needed to do this and that's a very hard Right. But that's also where I developed my skills, by the way, of motivation and fucking all of my speaking skills and shit,

because I have to convince someone, this is a great idea. Right. Right. Where in reality, now we're transitioning to a point where we're selling something people actually want. Like they want health.

They understand it's not about aesthetics anymore. It's not about having a six pack. It's about actually being healthy. Right. And that's important, bro. It's the most important thing. So that not about having a six pack. It's about actually being healthy. Right. And that's important, bro. It's the most important thing. So that's what we build our shit around. But yeah, I mean, dude, more and more people are taking charge of their lives.

It's fucking amazing. And that's why this shit that they push in the media, like we had on Q&A the other or TTI the other day with Tommy. With the self-image. Yeah. That's why these people are fucking idiots. Like they think they're pushing a trend further and further and further where those trends have become so unpalatable to the average American that people are already

going back the other way. So these people are not understanding the temperature on the street and they're continuing to push the crazy shit. And the audience for that shit is smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller by the day. Right. I was talking to my one, my family member who I was telling you about. She even said, she was like,

she's like, yeah, dude, I had a dream job lined up and I could have taken it. I worked two years to get this position and I ended up not taking it. And the reason I didn't take it

is because they literally believe that all white people are fucking racist. And people are becoming, and that has nothing to do with the fitness thing, but my point is the progressive agenda is becoming unpalatable right and and promoting people who are clearly unhealthy as the face of fitness when they're 300 something pounds and completely

that's fucking bullshit for a million reasons like i covered in the episode that the cti and everybody knows it yeah dude dude i got tagged in that a billion times dude everybody was out on that one question this is the truth yeah yeah so i think it's going to grow i think you know it's important for people to get healthy and here's why it's more important to be healthy okay this is why it really matters it's not just about you guys this actually i can tie this all back to government all right but like dude guys the fatter you are the unhealthier you are the more drugs you have to take the more fucking all of this shit the easier you are to control yeah yeah so get independent dude

get healthy take care of yourself eat right grow your food that you need to grow or eat healthy food like do make that investment because that is the cornerstone of of actual tyranny is creating a population that is lazy that is sick that is unmotivated that is demoralized that do not resist and and that has to do with that's why they're promoting this fat shit on people right right right and people don't get it dude the reason why mcdonald's wasn't no they think it's like it's a personal thing like they try to make everybody a victim and then say like oh dude you know there's fucking fat shame no one gives a fuck if someone's fat you should give a fuck if you're fat like i don't see a fat person and think man that person's a piece of shit

like well i'm scared bro i used to be fat. Right. Like I know what it's like. I kind of look at those people and I want to ask them what the fuck they eat because I know they know the good shit. You know what I'm saying? That's how I know all the good shit. Right. Right.

So like, bro, it's more than just what they try to make it to be. And that's what people have to get wise to. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. So that's fucking awesome, man. Well, that's three so go pay the fee yeah guys i appreciate you guys uh appreciate all the love you've been showing the show lately uh if you could help us grow the show bro we're one of the only places out there amongst

a few other select places that are telling the truth about shit okay we need independent media needs to be the fucking thing we cannot have media in this country that is controlled by corporate interests. All right? I don't run a motherfucking ad. There ain't nobody controls my shit. So help us grow the show. See you guys next time. Went from sleeping on the floor.
