I train before school, so it's fine. What school are you doing i'm in high school i'm just like in person high school what's that i forget high school that's amazing what grade are you in i'm a senior 12th grade and what month is it so february so you're almost done february in four months you're done yes in june is that in four months yeah i get yeah according to my math hey so after this interview you'll like go to you'll go to school
Starting point is 00:02:14 will you take a bag lunch we take like will your dad or your mom write your name on it and like you'll roll up and park in the parking lot and be like damn someone took my spot my favorite spot my school or me and my friends there's like a big thing about parking and we hate when people take our parking spot yeah friends with a bunch of boys and they like to save my spot so they would like put a cone and a spot for me but a couple of them actually got kicked out of the parking lot so we all park on the street because we like to park together so it's a whole ordeal yeah you're senior vip it's like hey that's my spot i know but people don't like to respect that hey do the boys ever pick cars up and move them they ever do that in your high school we used to do that every once in a
Starting point is 00:03:03 while we would usually do it to our friends. 10 of us would pick a car up and move it away or something. No, we haven't done that. We have blocked people in. We just surround people if they take our spot. Parking lot wars. One quick question.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Do you have a time limit? We don't want to keep you too much. I don't have to be in school till 855. So we got like an hour. Okay. Okay. I just wanted to make sure we didn't keep you. Hey, is it public school?
Starting point is 00:03:35 How is it? What's it like? Is it cool? Is it fun? Is it safe? Is it hard? I would much rather do high school in person in public than online. Cause I love going to school. I love seeing like all my friends.
Starting point is 00:03:48 I think we have so much fun and yeah, I think, I mean, obviously I'm biased, but my school or the school I go to is probably the best one or the best fit for me. Like in my hometown, it's just like very like family oriented. And it's just a super cool school I love it you go to the football games the basketball games you do all that stuff I used to but now that I'm like close to end of the senior year I'm just like over it I just want to be done like I go to school and get out there.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Did you play any sports, Trista? Not school sports. I grew up doing gymnastics. And I did CrossFit at the same time. But then I quit gymnastics for CrossFit. How old were you when you started gymnastics? Like four. I did it for a very long time. And when did you stop yes no maybe when did you stop gymnastics trista hello maybe she can't hear you no
Starting point is 00:04:59 like this interview is over how old were you when you stopped gymnastics trista i quit probably like two years ago so i was doing crossfit and gymnastics together for a very long time how old are you i'm 18 and when was your birthday october okay so wow so 12 years till you were 16. Did you ever do gymnastics competitively? Did you ever go to any competitions? Yeah. I was like, I was a level eight.
Starting point is 00:05:31 There's like 10 levels. So I was like pretty high up there. So it took a lot of my time. We had practice like every day of the week besides the weekend from 3 to 730. So it was a long day. How was your experience with gymnastics a lot of the guests I've had they say as they got to the higher level that it almost felt like abusive like the the training the relationships with the coaches the demands on the athletes I was extremely lucky. I had the best coach and he was, um, it was just like a very family oriented gym. Our team was just like a bunch of sisters. Like it was so cool. And my favorite part about
Starting point is 00:06:19 my coach is that he would also respect my CrossFit career because I don't know he just thought it was cool he knew my family super well and like knew me and I was always like the one on the team who loved like the conditioning part so he thought that was fun and cool yeah but um even like if I had CrossFit competitions they would like turn it on the tv at gymnastics practice that I'd be missing. So they really respected it, and I think that's super cool. So overall, I don't think I had a bad experience at all. Don't get me wrong. There was hard days, but I mean,
Starting point is 00:06:55 that comes with anything. And so, yeah, I loved it. I love our team. When you... So if you do gymnastics for 14 14 years and then and then you finish was there a last day and was it sad was it solemn was it was there a last day okay this is the last day i'm going to this no no there wasn't the last day just petered out yeah i mean i I had to skip a lot, a lot of practice for CrossFit. So it just kind of like weeded itself out.
Starting point is 00:07:32 I just like slowly transitioned into CrossFit. Hey, who got you into CrossFit? How did that happen? Where did the CrossFit come in? Okay, so both my parents grew up powerlifting and they actually met at a powerlifting meet I think that's so cute but um they like since they grew up doing it once I was born I was just like brought to the gym with them like they would carry me in my car seat and so I was very young and just kind of grew up in it
Starting point is 00:08:05 and when I was little I would just like see them working out and want to join in and do it so I would just mess around in the gym and it just kind of came naturally I was always in the gym and trying to do what I could do like literally since I could walk and but tell me so where does it go from powerlifting to crossfit and was there did your parents have did they not like crossfit at first did it take them a while to embrace it I I don't know like this specific year like crossfit like got started but um so they obviously did powerlifting and like some of our friends had done CrossFit, like when it was very first starting. And my parents like went and tried it and we joined a gym and we ended up being super close with like the owners of the gym and they actually moved.
Starting point is 00:08:58 So we actually bought the gym. Oh, back in 2009, I believe. Oh, so early, early. Yeah. So CrossFit's been a part of the family for a very long time. So your parents, God, I should have your parents on. So your mom and dad were powerlifters. They started dabbling in CrossFit, ended up buying a CrossFit gym.
Starting point is 00:09:20 Mm-hmm. And so you were raised in a CrossFit gym, like you said. Yeah. Yeah, literally just kind of grew up in it that's how i got started dude that's crazy what was the name of the gym fallout crossfit fallout crossfit and um so you do that and are you playing any sports in high school at the time like right now no yeah now or ever like did you play any sports in high school did you do soccer or any of the traditional stuff cheerleading football and nothing wrestling yeah here or
Starting point is 00:09:50 something i don't know say that again maybe what maybe like cheer i don't know i don't think i'm like the personality but i just i think that's fun and i have a lot of fun doing it. Yeah. I mean, shit. The stuff you do is hard, right? Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. I heard Colton say something the other day. He said, some people are afraid to get in a fight. And I had never heard it like that, but it's like that, right? Let's say you see a workout, and at the very end, it has like 60 burpees waiting for you.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Like it's some sort of trip or chipper or there's 50 burpees at the end. All of a sudden you're like, it is like that. You're like, oh God, like you're like at the end, I'm going to fight. Yeah. I mean, I love it. Oh, you do love that. You like that. Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:10:40 Well, that makes, that's why you're a professional CrossFitter. And I'm just like a dude shivering in my garage procrastinating okay you're you're up for the fight you're gonna you're gonna go through the whole workout and know like like i don't know if you're like in a real fight you're not gonna walk up scared like you're gonna be like oh no i'm taking this person down so i think you gotta have the same mindset in the workout like this is this is where i gotta fight and just grind to the burpees who do you think you got that from i don't know my parents for sure they're just very like strong-minded and love the fight um do you did you feel young do you feel do you feel like you know some people
Starting point is 00:11:28 will be like i'm some people will be like i'm uh i'm 15 years old and i'm an old soul you feel like or do you feel do you feel young i mean yeah yeah what do you mean by old soul though i don't know um like when i was young I didn't think I was wise Some young people think they're all wise and shit When I was young I didn't think I was wise I was young, I was new, I was fresh I was naive, I was ignorant I was just like
Starting point is 00:11:55 I had one gear, go Yeah I definitely feel young Especially because I'm like Around a bunch of people who are older than me usually So it just kind of happens to be like that but i mean i try and be wise i mean i definitely have my moments but i try my best and just think through everything all right well you're already smarter than me i never thought through stuff at 18 wasn't my strong suit either yeah i never thought for through anything throw this rock at that car all right
Starting point is 00:12:29 why'd you do it i don't know officer i don't know i have no idea yeah maybe not the best plan but i mean did you did you have you ever done a powerlifting meet yeah um i actually did two powerlifting meets before I started CrossFit. That was like when I was like 10 years old. And then a couple months ago, back in December, I believe, Justin powerlifting me and I did it with him in Boise. The champ, Justin Medeiros. You went with Justin to Boise for that?
Starting point is 00:13:01 Mm-hmm. How cool. Yeah, he's awesome. And then our coach just jesse buffano was there too so you were surrounded by um adam knifer arguably i don't even know if it's arguable i don't think it's arguable yeah i mean the the most knowledgeable experienced uh crossfit coach on all levels whether you need to lose 100 pounds or be a games athlete probably in the entire crossfit ecosystem on planet earth and
Starting point is 00:13:32 then you have the a guy who's in his complete own um category of success justin madaris the two-time champ and then you have ellie what is uh is it surreal to you well first tell me how you ended up there and and like have you settled in do you feel at home there or is it still like oh shit you and all i mean i still look at them like fangirl love them right but honestly like they're like my older siblings and they treat me like their younger sister like Like, I love them. It's just, like, another family type ordeal. But how it all came about was I or my family has been super close with Adam's whole family. And back in the day, Adam's sister-in-law coached at our gym. And so we, like, that's how we started to get to know them or
Starting point is 00:14:26 whatnot and um 2021 the first year i went to the games was the year justin won trista real quick how far is your gym the the your parents gym um what was fallout from van fort vancouver where about three hours away okay and his sister his sister-in-law taught at your gym okay okay sorry go on yeah and then so 2021 the first year i went to the games justin won the games and and you went as a teenager yeah in which age division that was when i was in the 14 15 age division and how did you do i took fourth good job but anyways uh we were like let's just reach out to him like i wasn't even looking for him to coach we were like let's just get back in touch like they have something good going on like just i think it'd be cool to get a hold of them and so we reach out to them and whatnot and then i go to a or went to a when you say you reach out
Starting point is 00:15:32 to him does your dad call him and he's like is he i wonder if your dad's like me he's like trying to be all humble i have this daughter who does crossfit but like he can't he's like dude she's a beast like two sentences in all his humility's out the door and he's like ego v she's gonna be better than justin that's the shit i would say about my son i try to start off all humble okay all right but um yes we reached out to them and then i actually went to a bergner strength camp it wasn't the um the coaching course it was the very first like course where they strictly was teaching athletes versus how to be a coach. Okay. Yeah, that's it. And so I went there and as you know, Adam is on the Bergner strength team.
Starting point is 00:16:18 Oh, I didn't know that. Okay. Yeah. So he was there and it's kind of like where we hit it off. And we actually went out to breakfast and we kind of had a meeting with Adam and he's like, Hey, like, I think it'd be so cool to coach Trista. Like, like he don't want to step on any of our toes either. And so I was actually following calm train at the time. And he's like, I'm willing to be all in if that's okay with you guys and how could you pass that up right that's crazy so i was like yes obviously like this is gonna be so cool and so imagine how much thought he gave it before he said that to you he probably thought about it forever he probably talked to his wife he probably thought about it forever. He probably talked to his wife.
Starting point is 00:17:05 He probably talked to Justin. Dude, that's crazy. Yeah. So he sees something in you. So he saw something. Yeah. And I don't know how. Because he's not a clout chaser either.
Starting point is 00:17:18 You know what I mean? Like he's not bringing you on. He's not like trying to like get rich off of. No. Yeah. he's not like trying to like get rich off of no yeah his whole goal is just to make us like the best athlete in person we can be yeah that's crazy that you had adam knifer recruit you that's nuts i didn't even know he did that yeah maybe that's maybe he hasn't done that i wonder if he has ever done that before that's crazy yeah it was super cool and And your parents are like, no, get out of here, creep.
Starting point is 00:17:46 No, we love them. Oh, okay. And that was that. And so that was that. It was on like Donkey Kong. Yeah, I mean, I don't know what he told Justin, this little girl, I'm going to start coaching. Yeah. But the next season, so 2022 season, the very first open workout is when I first met Justin.
Starting point is 00:18:11 He like came to the gym and I was like, I was like, Oh, Oh, I got to do good. So you're a 15, you're just a 15 year old kid at that point. Yeah. And he's just this grown ass weathered man has already been to the games 10 times. Yeah. And he like came over, he shook my hand, like introduced himself and yeah he was so cool so sweet like cheered me on throughout the whole workout and he I think he thought I hope he thought I was better than he was had envisioned of me because I mean he didn't know who I was was and yeah and then that that year we went to a um henshaw aerobic capacity camp or class whatever it is and that's when ellie came up she was here for like a week or whatnot
Starting point is 00:18:56 and just kind of loved what we had going on are you three hours from crossfit fort vancouver still so if you go when you go there do you do you stay for multiple days at a time is there a place you stay like you go like i just stay with adam's family i mean we're super close with them i love their girls and lauren adam's wife so it's And how long, what's the longest you'll stay? Will you ever go for a week? Oh yeah. I mean, during the summer, I have school right now, but during the summer, I stayed up there literally since the day school got out until we had to leave for the games. So I was there for a very long time.
Starting point is 00:19:37 So you have a room and a place where you charge your cell phone and you have a place to park your car and shit like that. Yeah. And you have like, you have your, like your favorite coffee shop. Like you go, you, you're, you have a place to park your car and shit like that and you have like you have your like your favorite coffee shop like you go you you're you have a routine there like you know where to get coffee in the morning and stuff like that i didn't say she probably doesn't drink coffee good good thank god sorry sorry i don't like it yeah look at your teeth look at your teeth you don't drink coffee look at this yeah okay i don't like it but but you had a routine there you you okay i don't like it but but you had a routine there you you yeah i mean it they definitely made me feel welcomed and it felt like home like i had had the grocery store i would always hit up
Starting point is 00:20:13 every week so i could like meal prep rest days like i'd either like hang out justin and ellie like we'd go i don't know we'd go do like some fun things go to the lake tan i did a lot of tanning in washington do you guys tan there yes i don't know you could do that there it's just those three months when the sun shines out that's it three two soak it up real um so so that so you go just training out of your parents gym fallout you end up going to the crossfit games it was i'm gonna ask a dumb question here i apologize was that an accident or you went on purpose well i had always wanted to go to the games ever since i was very little so that's like what I would always have in the back of my mind while training. And once it was like time to qualify, I was like, all right,
Starting point is 00:21:11 we got to get it into gear. So. And tell me about qualifying as a teen. I'm not sure. Tell me about the process. I'm not sure if I know the process. You do the open. Yeah. It's changed a couple of times times we'll have done it the first year oh gosh i could be wrong i don't even remember it was like it was back in i did the open when it was the year when it was like in october and november so back in 20 2019 that was or 2020 i don't remember i don't remember either but but let's just make it up let's get close so you do the open do you guys do quarterfinals yeah and then i did it was like another qualifier i don't remember it was called something different back then okay remember but
Starting point is 00:21:58 and then the last two years it's been um open and then quarterfinals and then semifinals but the semifinals are online so it's just like quarter it's hard part two so it's crazy so yeah that's crazy yeah and especially like like last year i was also like seeing where i was at in the um open division. So I would do like my age division workouts and qualifiers and the adult division. So it was like a lot of competing, but I mean, I loved it. So it was fine. Why did you do both? I just wanted to see where I was at in the open division. Anyone try to talk you out of that? No, I don't think there's anything to lose I mean the only thing is like I know some girls in my age division had like thought it through and was like I just don't want to do it because it could like lead to burnout but I mean I love it right now and I
Starting point is 00:22:59 think I have a good balance of outside life and training life so I was like I I think I have nothing to lose so I did it god that's fun yeah hey have you was there an age you're 18 now um you've been basically training your entire life was there an age that you saw your biggest growth like was there an age I don't know, between 15 and 16, where just every time you went in the gym, there was a PR? I don't think so. No. I mean, I think usually, I don't know the actual age, but I feel as if girls usually peak around like 24 or something. And I feel like I'm just like slowly on that path. Sorry, let me request, re-ask question. I didn't mean, um, peak, sorry. I did not mean to use that
Starting point is 00:23:52 word. Was there, was there a point where, so, so for boys, I'm assuming it's for girls too. There's a point where like basically you're transitioning from being a kid to an adult, right? So all your limbs are kind of growing their final bit, you know, your head. Yeah. Even like babies. I don't know if you've been around babies, but their heads are huge compared to their bodies and then their bodies grow into their heads. That's why they're so bizarre creatures. Was there a point when you're like, OK, horm and physically i'm making i'm making such a big leap here that every day is like a trip like almost like it's having a new body every single day was there anything like that i don't i don't think so i know in the last i'd say like year and a half i'd say like i can tell like my training has definitely ramped up and like not like the volume of the training but like
Starting point is 00:24:45 how like i've been performing and competing especially like like your body's responding at the highest level it's ever responded like i guess i guess you're here's what i mean to say sorry fuck let me take take 15 your body the adaptations your body is making are finally like wow this is when you mix CrossFit. Because I always wondered this, especially for boys, because I have three boys. When you mix CrossFit with a boy who's between 16 and 18, like if you don't do that, you're missing out. I mean, I know it's all you know. So you don't you can't be like, yeah, this is Trista who didn't do CrossFit.
Starting point is 00:25:20 But I'm guessing that there's a point where it's like crazy accelerated. But I'm guessing that there's a point where it's like crazy accelerated. Yeah. I mean, like I said, like, I just feel like the last couple of years it was like really performing at the best level. But I think what also like plays into that is just being a more like seasoned athlete. And like, I've competed a bunch in the last two years and so I just
Starting point is 00:25:46 think I've gotten more experience under my belt too like you surprise yourself like Justin's in there and you're doing a workout with them maybe that you did a couple months ago and all of a sudden you're like wait I'm in his hip pocket coming into this last round as before he might have been way out in front I think Justin is definitely better than me, but you're closing the gap. I'm trying. Good. Good. Let me, um, do you, do you remember the first time you back squatted or is it just too, too long ago?
Starting point is 00:26:14 Yeah. I don't know. So the first time you back squat, you probably back squat with like a five pound kid bar. I mean, yeah. There's remember the first thing that was like so little. Do you remember the first time you back squatted 135 when you were able to put the 45s on do you remember how old you were and you're like wow this is cool i can put the 45s on no i don't know do you have any moments like that do
Starting point is 00:26:35 you remember anything like that like dead lifting the first time you were able to put 245s on each side you're like oh my god look at look at me i mean look at her no no isn't these dude i don't i mean that's incredible and then doing bar muscle-ups you're probably like what 11 there and then it cuts to this like deadlift you're 11 there i i made that up i made that up look at this look at her back squatting okay so do you remember that meet right there i and then look at that kind of there's a shitload more than 135 on that bar right now i remember when i i remember when i deadlifted 135 for the first time and then look you're powerlifting me is that your dad by the way behind you there no that wasn't no
Starting point is 00:27:18 okay just a judge and now she's cranking out probably over 200 there. She's born to be a champion. Power lifting parents, domestic background, loves the condition. Understand she still wants to have some fun tan and hang out at In-N-Out. Yeah, the fun part. The fun part. It's crazy. Dialed in. Always keep that in mind.
Starting point is 00:27:39 I really like that you said that because I think with the younger athletes, one thing they forget is how much time they have. And to put this into perspective, you could do nothing for the next 15 years and you would still be three years younger than I am right now. Yeah. Just like, just think about how much time that is and how much potential you have to grow in so many different areas and don't lose sight of that and think you have to do everything right now yeah I mean I think overall I have like a pretty good outlook on life and I I love training and I love what I do and I think everything leads into it so like how I sleep how I eat and like but I do think to be in that mindset, you have to have fun outside the gym, or you're just gonna get burnt out, you're not gonna love it anymore. And so I definitely like to go have fun with my friends and like do other things outside of CrossFit and
Starting point is 00:28:38 just kind of get my mind off of training. But yeah, I love it both. I love it both I love it all so kind of the best of both worlds how and how into your athletic career are your mom and dad very into it I mean they obviously they understand it and I'd love that they understand it because they can help me like I don't know everything and so like if i need like help on like a movement or something or to perfect my form like they're always there to help is he just so excited so he is your dad just like will he just be all up in your shit for like the open and the quarterfinal something by by up in your shit i mean like will he be just like interested like will he just be all up in your shit for like the open and the quarterfinals? By up in your shit, I mean like will he be just like interested? Like will he be there when you do your open workouts and your quarterfinals? And like at the games, where does he sit?
Starting point is 00:29:34 Does he go to the games? Does he go to the games? Oh, my gosh. My parents are like the crazy parents. Oh, good. Okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So they are – that makes me – I want to hear that.

Starting point is 00:30:32 that pressure from your parents because they're having so much fun do you feel any pressure to perform i mean no no like i just do my own thing. Not yet.

Starting point is 00:31:00 Or is he, like, you guys share a hotel? Is the family staying in a hotel together are you still that young yeah okay okay awesome but last last games i took like the master bedroom and like i got the big bed i made them all like sleep on the couch and like yeah a lot yeah they probably loved it your parents love doing that for you let me oh yeah they love it they do i'm serious oh they love it during the games um my parents are obviously super smart and like very knowledgeable about crossfit and so they'll definitely like help me out where i can or if i need help my mom like makes all my food
Starting point is 00:31:46 for me i feel very helpless when i'm competing but um i think they get a little stressed to be honest stressful job being a parent but they do a great job they're i love them they're the best you you uh recently did your level one and that's what really caught my attention um uh someone um someone just dm me and said holy shit uh trista smith is doing her level one she's only 17 years old i guess you were 18 right why did you do it tell me about that um i want to hear everything about it did you like it why did you it? Were you bummed because you'd rather be out with your friends? Yeah. I'd be like, fuck, 18 to level one.
Starting point is 00:32:30 I ain't doing that. More school on the weekend? Damn. But the level one changed my life, so I'm just so curious how it affected you. Yeah, so I did it because I got sent a certificate to do it for free in my email. Because you're a games athlete that or semifinals i don't really know okay but it was there and they came to my hometown so i was like might as well do it how did you know they came to your hometown did someone tell you was your mom and dad like i don't know my mom is very like interested in like the crossfit world
Starting point is 00:33:06 so she keeps up with things and she was like you should probably do it because come here and it's free so yeah yeah yeah i mean i definitely learned that i'm an athlete i'm a coach like don't get me wrong i think i would love to be a coach and like, I don't know, we were doing workouts and I was helping people. I love helping people. And I just feel as if I enjoy working out myself more than coaching. But yeah, I think obviously there's like higher courses than the level one, like the two, three and four. Correct. Yep. But, um um i think if you're just like a basic athlete like interested in the cross methodology like the level one is such a great start you learn so much like like what crossfit is like what fitness is you learn the nutrition and i mean there's
Starting point is 00:34:02 obviously that's just like kind of like the basic things about CrossFit though. There's so much more to learn, but, and to be a coach, I think just taking the level one doesn't just like put you in. Like, I think you gotta have like definitely the perfect personality for it. Like if you're super like introverted and like, I think you need to like, get to know your clients on like a personal level, especially because like CrossFit is like overall arching goal is to like better you and better your health as a person, like on the, um, the sick, well fit continuum. Like you're always like trying to look at you okay okay look at you yeah did you know about the sickness wellness uh continuum i did learn about
Starting point is 00:34:53 it did you know about that before the level one no so let me tell you the vibe i'm getting let me tell you the vibe i'm getting from you the vibe i'm getting from you when you start off is like yeah yeah i guess i took it it was okay i learned a lot but like but yeah like you know like i already know how to move good that's a little bit of vibe i'm getting from you but then you drop in the sickness wellness continuum and now i'm like oh she loved like it it's like she loved it yeah what is it now i'm confused i love crossfit like i feel like when I go to school, I. Were you inspired by the level one? Were you like, or were you just like, thank God this shit's over or somewhere in between?
Starting point is 00:35:30 It was a long weekend. Yeah. Yeah, it is. It's a lot of information in that time. Yeah. I don't know. I just, I love CrossFit. So I like love learning about it.
Starting point is 00:35:41 Like, I feel like in school, I'll apply myself to the classes that I like actually enjoy and I actually enjoy CrossFit surprisingly so I you should see my notebook I probably have like 20 pages full of notes from the level one yeah I mean before would you recommend it would you recommend it yeah I mean especially, if you're a member at a gym and, like, not even – like, if you don't even want to be a coach, I think it's a great start just to learn more about CrossFit. Yep. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:36:14 Do you make any friends? No. No. Do you remember who your instructors were? Yeah. Ray Ragnow. I love him. I knew him before because of like bergner strength

I said I don't think it's a bad name. I don't think so either. I'm just not naming my kid Rusty. How about... What are some other things that happen to metal that's not good?

Starting point is 00:38:00 What's wrong with Richard? Yeah, my dad's name's Richard. It comes with a tough nickname. It comes with a tough nickname. It comes with a tough nickname. No, that's old school. Oh, please. Oh, please. Is your dad's name Richard?

It's not like a pipe that's been sitting around in the backyard too long not a part of the anatomy it's just just tim straightforward tim yeah the people at the l1 know that you were competitive and what you've done inside the competition i mean some people did i like obviously i didn't want to like say anything or i just kind of sat there quietly doing my own thing you didn't write your name really small in the tag Trista

Starting point is 00:39:40 From like The Bachelor. Say that again? My parents got my name from the bachelor i'm pretty sure that show the bachelor yeah have you ever watched that show no yeah i forbade you you know one of the games athlete one of the games athletes was on that show parker and so i watched the season of that that is that he told me the other day they're like did you do you know who luke parker is and i'm like no i don't they're like he's on the bachelor and he's a games athlete i'm like oh i live under a rock that show is
Starting point is 00:40:16 it's bad it'll eat away at your soul i don't even know if we believe we have souls but it's bad it is it is not healthy it's not just about because there's just the way they treat people on there it's like you don't want to learn anything from that show you don't want to treat people the way they treat people on the show oh it's horrible well it's also it's completely fake none of that i used to have a friend that produced in the reality tv show space and everything else and it's all scripted none of it's actually real yeah 100 and like even when they do the questions we'll be like trista so how do you feel about what Sevan said? And you'd be like, well, what's Sevan say? And then they would tell you, and then they'd be like, okay,
Starting point is 00:40:51 now start by saying, I felt like this when Sevan said, and then you would say it and they'd be like, okay, great. But can you make it a little bit more? And like they coach them through it. Yeah. A hundred percent. And then they just, and then they mix alcohol into it and they'll pull them into the room and say, Hey, well, let's have you watch this, or did you know so-and-so is doing this? And then they let them go back in and naturally kind of argue and fight. And then they also hand-pick personalities that are just a little on the edge. You can know, like, okay, we're going to mix oil and water here by getting these groups of people together. So yeah, all of it is fabricated.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Good to know. all of it is yeah fabricated good to know speaking of uh weird events are you did are you gonna go do you have a senior ball at your at your high school like i think we had that one yeah like prom yeah um honestly i am not like like i think i'd have so much fun, but also I'm just, like, so done with school things. I just feel like. So you didn't do that. You didn't do a senior dance. You didn't go to the dance where you, like, you rent. You waste your parents' money on a limo and a dress and shit.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Promise that happened, but I don't know. I don't know if we'll go. I don't really care. You don't. Will a boy ask you? If a boy asks you, will you go? Yeah. Do they still do that? I don't even know if they still do that.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Oh. Do they still do that? I wouldn't be surprised if it's 2024 if four girls go together or something. I wouldn't be surprised either, but that would not be me. It wasn't an elaborate, will you go to prom with me like sign oh no that's the thing that's the yeah
Starting point is 00:42:30 yeah yeah yep yep i pioneered that back in 2005 trista tell me about tell me about about tell me about lunch when at lunchtime at school do you stay on campus and do you you always eat lunch in the same like place in the quad with the same like five girls that's what i used to do except it was the same five boys stuff like that well so the first semester of this year and like last couple years um i i would go to lunch with the same group of boys like i'm just friends boys i like i don't know i don't really like girls but we'd have a grand old time sometimes we would go fishing during lunch like they're crazy like they bring ropes to school they're like roping in the parking
Starting point is 00:43:19 lot it gets crazy but now boys wear cowboy boots to your school is it that kind of oh yeah it's a very country school oh that's kind of how i am okay okay lifted trucks roping people in the parking lots cowboy hats yeah okay grown-outs leaving the parking lot yeah i know it was the same at my school my school yep but uh yeah so this semester my schedule actually changed so i only have three classes at school i have like three free periods and i like built my schedule that way so i could like have more time to train so i actually don't have lunch with them anymore it's so sad but now i just kind of go sit in my pickup and twiddle my thumbs for 30 minutes and then what kind of car do you have i drive a truck too what kind of truck a dodge cummins
Starting point is 00:44:16 wow what year is it uh 1999. your car did your car take diesel yeah holy that's not it that's not it behind you is it oh that's it yeah that's a 99 you put diesel you use the you use the pump with the that's green yep no wonder you're so good across it if If I use that, my testosterone would go through the roof. I don't even look at that. I don't even think I'm worthy to look at that. I leave the gas station. Look at Matt Burns. Damn girl.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Holy shit. I don't even understand you. You're a different breed. Yeah. I love my pickup. It's so cool. It's lifted straight pipe. It's so loud. What lifted straight piped it's so loud what's that mean straight piped what's that mean okay i cannot i drive the truck i cannot define the truck i don't
Starting point is 00:45:13 know but it has something to do with the exhaust so it's loud yeah yeah when she starts it it's like yeah man that sound it makes too chris Chris Carter says you should rub a little on your gums, a little diesel. You should. See what happens. My goodness. Just touched it. How long have you had that truck? A couple, maybe like almost two years.
Starting point is 00:45:42 Did your parents buy it for you? Yeah. So you're a good kid and your parents do good things for you yes very grateful for them you're not causing them like unnecessary stress you're a good kid yeah have you ever been arrested have you been arrested no okay all right the cops pulled over so wow really i know in that giant truck you've never been pulled over, so. Wow, really? I know. In that giant truck, you've never been pulled over? I feel like I'm a decent driver. Can you parallel?
Starting point is 00:46:12 Yeah, I don't love to parallel park. Dude, you don't even need to be good at parallel when you have a truck that big. Because you just can feel the curb, right? Like you can bump the curb and be like, okay, I'm good. Yeah, I mean, I do do that. I can though, if I have to. I love parallel parking. So it was one of the only way you lift 300 pounds to show off. I parallel park. Like when I parallel park, I look at my wife and I'm
Starting point is 00:46:41 like, yeah, that's why you're with me. Serious. i look at my wife and i'm like yeah that's why you're with me i'm serious it is it's amazing i'm i'm i'm i'm why wasn't the level one um be completely frank with me why wasn't the level like for me when i went to the level one i was like holy shit i can't believe this i like i haven't i can't believe they just told me to run as fast as i was 34 when i took it i can't believe this. I like, I haven't, I can't believe they just told me to run as fast as I was 34 when I took it. I can't believe they just told me to run as fast as I can. But you, you weren't in all like that at all.
Starting point is 00:47:11 Cause you, you already were in touch with your body and like doing wild shit with it. And so you weren't blown away by it. It's okay. I'm just a kid. She was immersed in it growing up. Yeah. I liked it though i think it's a really good program for sure how about that sickness wellness continuum thing you mentioned had you ever even heard of that before you went no oh okay okay
Starting point is 00:47:36 okay and maybe that'll resonate with you like when you're like in another 10 years, when one of your friends gets diabetes, you'll be like, dude, you're fucked on the sickness, wellness continuum. And then you could help them. But right now you think of CrossFit as a thing to a performance based thing, like how to rev up.
Starting point is 00:47:56 That was another big thing. I mean, they would like during the workouts, I'm trying to win the workouts at one. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I would do like competitors form. And that was like, not what they were going for. I mean, I definitely
Starting point is 00:48:12 try to keep an open mind like the whole weekend, but they want to like, perfect by the book form for everything. Like grip on the muscle up and you're and you're like nah i'm good like yeah and then like uh the med ball clean i wasn't finishing at the top i was just like keeping my hips closed and trying to like get under fast to go faster but you know i like did what they told me to do after they corrected me this this transition from um kids elite athlete to adults um elite athlete do you what are your what are your thoughts on that you before you know recently i mean it's kind of a interesting place to watch right because we've seen some people make the leap have any boys ever made the leap one year no boys done it the leap? No boys done it. But some girls have done it, right?
Starting point is 00:49:10 Did Haley and Mal both do it? And Olivia? Emma Lawson. Emma Lawson, Mal, Emma Carey, and Olivia. They did it while they were 16. No, 17. Sorry. Is that just freak of nature shit or or yeah they're cool yeah is is that what you're gonna try to do are you gonna try to this year do you put that
Starting point is 00:49:35 pressure on yourself to make that leap i mean i don't mean pressure in a bad way either. No, I think obviously I want to go to the games, and that's like my main goal. But I look at it like I'm still so young, and I have so many years to try and qualify. And obviously if I don't qualify, I'm going to be disappointed. Like that's going to be a hard pill to swallow. But I think good things come from stuff like that. And, like, if I don't qualify, like, I'm going to train harder. But I'm also, like, going to go have fun. Like, I'm a kid.
Starting point is 00:50:20 And so I think it's going to be a great opportunity opportunity just to like live it up my younger years. But if I did qualify, like that is like 100 percent like what my summer is going to be. And so I think either way, I think it's going to be good. So you're i'm gonna translate you have this enormous a challenge you have this enormous challenge in front of you that's about to start in a couple weeks and you're you're um you're absolutely game for it and ready to blast into it but but you're keeping a little bit of uh humility but you're you're you're like yeah ding dong what you think? I'm going to the game. Shut up. You don't even know what diesel fuel is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:07 I get it. I respect it. Do you read any self-help books or any books that are like, be humble, but know that you're better than other people? Are you reading? No. You're reading any books? I'm not a reader. How about audio books?
Starting point is 00:51:24 No. No. Do you have a therapist? Do you have a do you have a therapist you have a therapist no do you have a mental coach no no good all right good all right you're just cruising yeah i i think my my head's good yeah and i'm not saying any of those things like you need it don't don't don't uh mr uh trista uh shannon madaris wow the champs mom i love her. Me too. Trista is an amazing girl, and she comes from a great family. We've established that. Ask where she's going after high school.
Starting point is 00:51:52 Where are you going after high school? Nothing is set in stone yet, but I possibly might move to Boise. Oh, wow. Where the whole crew is at I don't know that's like what I'm like trying to do but there's like so many logistics that go into it
Starting point is 00:52:15 why wouldn't you move to Fort Vancouver that's a thought too but Boise like Justin and Ellie live there that's where Daniel our agent is that's where's a thought too but um Boise like Justin and Ellie live there that's where Daniel our agent is that's where Dallas the videographer is like everybody lives there and so I just the whole everybody's there I think it's awesome but if I like went to Vancouver like either way like Adam would be there there's great clients at his gym, people I love working out with, and there's such good energy there too.
Starting point is 00:52:46 So I think whatever I choose is going to be beneficial either way. Do you know that kid that trains with Jessica Griffith? He's a boy, Ty. Ty, yeah. Where does he train? Ty Jenkins. I don't know. Oh.
Starting point is 00:53:06 I just know him from the games. Oh. Are you friends with him? I wouldn't say we're, like, friends. He's a nice person. I don't really, like, talk to him much, though. Because I was just thinking maybe it seems like there's been some great duos who are men and women competing so that they're,
Starting point is 00:53:27 they could compete, but not like make the wheels fall off the bus. Do you have people that you compete with at Fort Vancouver? Like you have people that you can compete with? Oh yeah, for sure. There are. Okay. Do you like that? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. No, no, not matchmaking. Not match. No, no, no, no. I know what you mean. Not matchmaking. Wouldn't dare. You got a mom and dad for that. Your parents, are they helicopter parents at all?
Starting point is 00:53:59 How do you think your parents kept you on the straight and narrow? Why haven't you gotten into distractions? Whatever those be. Why aren't you vaping don't vape please do not i would never trust me yeah what how did your parents keep you from vaping i don't they never even like told me not to yeah okay i just like i have one goal in mind and that is to be the best crossfitter I can be. And doing stuff like that is obviously taking me away from that. You'll never get back, by the way. You're so smart. I just want to emphasize for anyone who's listening.
Starting point is 00:54:39 Once you vape, you're fucked. You'll never go back because the damage is done. Yeah, it's done. People are like, just one time. I'm like, no. I will not do it well that's nothing yeah yeah you'll only wonder when you're older what if i didn't do that how good could i have been right yeah and i just think like vaping okay let me ask some let me ask them what about tattoos do you have any tattoos no i don't but i want to get some. Okay, so your parents aren't perfect.
Starting point is 00:55:05 Okay. I feel a little better. Okay, I feel a little better. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't say they're helicopter parents. They're definitely like... Let's talk about tattooing. If I mess up, they're scary, but... What if we do this? What if we do this for tattoo?
Starting point is 00:55:21 What if we do this? What if we say you can't get a tattoo? What if you get a tattoo when you win the games that way it's a reward huh like what are you what are you getting at that i'm just saying that there's no rush there's no rush there's no like so don't get yeah don't get a tattoo just wait like get it like a um you know like wait until um uh like you win and that way it's like really like now you're like oh my god if i win the games i get to get a tattoo yeah i mean and then you probably wouldn't even want to win a tattoo you'd be like shit what if the ink makes me like fucks up my training yeah i know
Starting point is 00:55:55 but i mean i think it's fine it is all right um you have any superstitions no go ahead you're gonna say something about tattoos i want to hear oh. Oh, I was just going to say, like, I'm not going to get one right now because chances are, I'm not going to like it in a couple of years. Cause there was things like two years ago that I was like, oh yeah, I'm going to get that. And now I look back and I'm like, thank the Lord. I didn't want to do that. What were you thinking?
Starting point is 00:56:23 What were you thinking? Like your truck really big on your back like doing a burnout no not that i don't know but i think i just need to give a little more thought but i definitely do want to get something how how so let's let's let's assume that the premise that um your parents how do you think that what do you think your parents did that helped guide you or kept you in a state where in the state of mind and in the state of life that you're in what qualities or what things do you think that they did did they give you space did they ask questions were they bossy were they strict did they lead by example what do you think i'm not even saying in detail way like obviously you got into weightlifting
Starting point is 00:57:14 because they set that example but what do you think it is what qualities made it so you didn't drift off that you don't have a tattoo that you're not sneaking out at night that you're not vaping that you're not um is there anything you can think of that um i mean i feel like i'm just a very like self-motivated and driven person like they weren't like always up in my business like i don't even think they really like checked my grades or anything and like i don't know i just feel like i i got it all under control myself so i don't think i mean so they gave you space to build confidence they gave you space to build confidence yeah i mean if i if i screwed up they'd for sure let me know but can you give me an example what that would look like oh i don't know i haven't really gotten in trouble really
Starting point is 00:58:06 i do have life 360 on my phone you do have what life 360 it's like a a tracker oh oh so they can see where you are they can see where i'm at oh yeah yeah you're dead that's smart your dad's smart yeah he ever been like hey what were you doing over there? No. See, that's smart, too. I don't go to crazy places. Yeah, that's smart, too. Like, I'm just hanging out with my close group of friends. I just, I'm not a big, like, like, big party person. Like, I definitely like to have fun, but, like, with a smaller group of friends.
Starting point is 00:58:43 Would they come to your house or would you has your dad have your mom and dad made your house like one of the things that parents talk about is is make your house the house where all the kids want to come like have the pool the pool table be the cool parents have the fridge full of food that shit uh i mean i wouldn't say like a lot of the times my friends come over here we kind of bounce around everywhere though so is your dad a pilot no oh okay i saw you like with this thing in a plane and i was like i wonder oh look braylon braylon tender fitness competitor uh dear trista i have one spot open for a female athlete to join my camp this year the The offer expires on February 18th.

Starting point is 00:59:59 Like, no. How did you find an agent? How did you interact with him? He what? He was Justin's agent. And obviously we were super close with Justin and that side. So it just kind of fell into place. And you were in Idaho working out one day or he was at Fort Vancouver? I think he was at Fort Vancouver when I first met him.
Starting point is 01:00:22 I think he was at Fort Vancouver when I first met him. It was for 2022 quarterfinals, I think, is when I first met him. And when he tries to talk to you, you're like, no, talk to my dad. No, I love talking to people. I mean, he definitely does talk to my dad. Sometimes he'll ask very important questions.

Starting point is 01:02:36 seminar we talk about providing solutions instead of problems oh Oh. Pitch is on point. So you're, you're, you are 18 and I'm 51. That makes us look at, she just like wince. She's like, oh shit. Yeah. So yeah. It's like, shit yeah so yeah she's like damn i don't have any teeth falling out yet but soon uh 30 i'm 33 years older than you the world was a different place when i grew up like there were things that like like we didn't even have like
Starting point is 01:03:15 there wasn't facebook or there wasn't youtube or there wasn't there were the phones were attached to the wall shit like that people. Do they still use microwaves? Yeah. Okay, I don't have one, but they had microwaves. Microwaves came when I was in high school, and everyone was like, holy shit, this is crazy. They came when you were in high school? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:41 All of a sudden, overnight, it was crazy, Trista. All of a sudden, overnight, you walked into the grocery. First, the microwave came and then overnight there was there were two aisles in the grocery store that was just microwavable shit that never existed before it was like it just like took over it was so weird that is weird to think about hey and on every store there used to be places where you would go and rent movies on every corner in every city oh it was nuts it was not buster yeah i feel like a better one yeah washington there's probably one left in the world it's probably in your it is i think it's in oregon and you can rent it as an airbnb so actually yeah yeah i think so when when i was a kid this is the only way i can understand it bear with me when i was a kid this is the only way i can understand it
Starting point is 01:04:26 bear with me when i was a kid the pressure i felt was from my peer group at my school right so if if i like i showed up to school in my 1977 um uh volkswagen rabbit you know what that is it's like a girl car just you know what a cabriolet is i drove anyway i had to just deal with those kids laughing at me just those kids right when you now you're you the whole world can laugh at you yeah through social media and i'm always tripping on how you guys process that and and but but it's also all you know so i don't even know if you that's but i drove a silver one mine was not like that's a gti that's way nicer than what i drove but you would not oh mine i don't thought that was a positive O.
Starting point is 01:05:25 Was that a positive O? Did you like that car? No. All right, that's fine. Yeah, yeah, that's fine. That's what I mean. I probably don't like it. So I don't know what I'm – I don't know.
Starting point is 01:05:40 Do you have any perspective on social media? Do you have any – or do you think that maybe you don't even have perspective because it's all you've ever known like what what's what are your thoughts on this on so many people being able to weigh in on trista smith yeah well people can be mean people can be mean but i i don't care like i feel like i have pretty tough skin so what they say i don't even know how did you get there how did you get to i don't care i don't know i i just generally don't care what people think of me i feel like like i'm i got my life pretty much under control so like people's comments like they're not true and i don't know i don't have a lot of like mean people in my comments i will say my dad likes to respond to mean comments i bet he does yeah with the
Starting point is 01:06:35 shotgun too yeah but i don't really deal with that and i don't know i have a pretty good mindset, so I don't, I don't bug me. How do you, can you tell me how you don't care if you do, do you let the nice compliments affect you? The nice comments? I mean, yeah. I was like,
Starting point is 01:06:56 Oh my gosh, you're so sweet. But I don't know. I don't really pay attention much to the comments. I mean, I get a lot of DMS, but ignore all those two. Yeah. Ignore all of it. Yeah. I don't know. I don't really pay attention much to the comments. I mean, I get a lot of DMs, but... Ignore all those, too.
Starting point is 01:07:07 Yeah. Ignore all of it. Yeah. Let your agent do it. I hate all of them. Yeah, good, good. Hey, so your Instagram just has a big request folder, right? Like for DMs?
Starting point is 01:07:22 Yeah. Yeah. And then do you ever even go in those yeah i love to go through them i think they're very interesting so you go through them and you're just like do you just hit accept as fast as you can read it accept read it accept read accept so you can i don't have to hit accept i can just yeah yeah yeah oh then how do you know you don't i i just accept them all to get that number down to zero doesn't that number drive you crazy that it's not zero i mean i don't like when there's like notifications but i also don't want to like open them up i could delete them but i also want to read them right so it's
Starting point is 01:07:55 fine um is that where um are there potential sponsors in there uh possibly but like I have my agents email like in my Instagram email button or whatever so like if they want to sponsor me they can talk to him I don't have an agent
Starting point is 01:08:19 so people have to DM me and go through my request actually that's the and then i just say please talk to matt souza right away please don't talk to me uh i i'm trying i'm trying do you think you're going to be able to keep that up um so that you're not affected by the comments i bring this up because we saw we we've seen what's happening. There's this enormous pressure. I feel like – I haven't spoken to them directly about it, but I feel like what happened to Mal and Haley is just an enormous amount of pressure
Starting point is 01:08:55 and that that pressure, I have to guess, comes from social media. Definitely some of it, I'd say. Just because it's so many people having access to you. Yeah. I mean, they definitely have a big following, so that could be part of it i'd say i don't just because it's so many people having access to you yeah i mean they definitely have a big following so that could be part of it but i don't really know and do you do you seem pretty confident in your ability to keep that at bay but but do you keep an eye on it also like okay do you do you check in with yourself what do you mean check in with myself like like let's say if someone does write something that's not nice and it affects you will you will you be like oh shit wow okay trist uh trista uh time to go uh do 100 burpees uh
Starting point is 01:09:36 and slap yourself around better something i'm like really just like get it together you're fine like i'm not one to just go like lay in bed feel sorry for myself like i'm not like a depressed type person like if i'm sad i'm like get up you're fine okay so you you so you do it and those are the tools you use if there is ever any funk you do talk to yourself and honestly you know what really like i think this is what really made my mindset like this is hanging out with the boys at school they're like they're crazy like they do not care what people think about them they're like they're like blowing duck calls everywhere they go, like around school, like they don't care. And so like I got I get upset about something. They're like, trust me, why? Like, it's not worth your energy. It's not worth your time. Like, who cares what people think of you? You're fine. And I just don't think anything's that deep to care enough. It's interesting you say that because obviously boys and girls are significantly different. And the stuff that I've just heard other people talk about is that girls are significantly more – because they're more observant and have more empathy. I guess those are the presuppositions that because they're more observant and have more empathy, they're more affected by social media.
Starting point is 01:11:00 So they see more, and it hits them harder because they're open. media so they they see more and it hits them harder because they're open but what you're saying is that you've learned from these um ignorant boys i mean ignorant in the most complimentary way because uh ignorance is bliss that you've noticed like hey my friends are really happy and having fun how do they do it oh they don't care what other people think okay i like that they don't care yeah yeah and so if i can if i in the i don't care state and you're a good person so your your i don't care mode doesn't involve hurting other people that's i mean that's the problem yeah not at all you're not out robbing stores or beating people you're just making duck calls your i don't care is making duck calls yeah yeah there definitely comes like a point where you're like, things do matter, but
Starting point is 01:11:48 most of the time it doesn't. So how are you going to keep those dudes around you when you graduate? How are you going to keep, you're already losing them by not one time. How are you going to keep that? It sounds like you need that team. Yeah. I mean, I feel like we're all super close and so, that team yeah i mean i feel like we're all super close and so and they're actually all younger than me um they're juniors i'm a senior but yeah i mean we're all so close so i think we'll stay in touch does anybody go ahead go ahead go ahead susan i was just gonna ask is everybody aware at school like what you do and do they like hear, Oh, this is the CrossFit girl. And then they go to your Instagram and like, Holy shit. Like, I mean, I'm not friends with a ton of people at my school outside, like my little
Starting point is 01:12:33 circle, but I think a lot of people know about like what I do. Yeah. And then like my friends definitely respect it too. How did you meet, how do you meet friends with boys who are juniors if you're a senior where do you meet them um we were just like in a bunch of classes together and like obviously like they're interested in this same stuff i'm interested in i think that's so cool and i i don't know i just they're so fun so like obviously i want to be with them i thought you were going to say
Starting point is 01:13:06 you met them at the like the auto repair shop or something or like it I mean we did auto repair but we had like a welding class together and like I was like you took a welding class of course you did yeah um it was a couple years ago but I had like a bunch of ad classes. And so that's like where I met them. When did your dad give you reign over your own social media? How old were you? I think I got Instagram when I was like 13. I don't know. And did he did he would he look at it would he check it i mean not like through my phone i i don't do anything like really bad no no but i'm i'm not
Starting point is 01:13:55 worried about you i'm worried about the outside world oh i mean no they would never like take my phone and check it do they have they talked to you just about the outside world 13 seems so young god i god for a girl to have instagram or anyone to have instagram yeah i know i totally get it but i don't know i think they just like know who i am and like she's fine i'm not gonna like get into any trouble with anyone right or um i just saw this movie that um kids use that snapchat's like do you snapchat no no oh okay that i think that's a healthy sign that you don't use snapchat all the shit i hear about snapchat is bad it's not like yes i never hear any good story not one like instagram you're like oh i put this on there and got rich and
Starting point is 01:14:41 it's snapchat's like i put this on here and got drugs and went to jail it's like oh no my friends never let me have snapchat but like i oh wait tell me that your dad didn't let you have snapchat they did not yeah all right now we're now we're getting to something all right now there's the line we found it like i just think i don't care either i'm proud of your dad i don't i don't really know it like i don't care if your feelings were hurt either i'm glad that could have changed your whole life like a waste of i don't really know. I don't care if your feelings were hurt either. I'm glad you didn't let go. That could have changed your whole life. I think that's just like a waste of... I don't really know how it works. You just like send pictures back and forth,
Starting point is 01:15:12 but I think it's just like a waste of time. I think because stuff disappears there, it allows people to be more cavalier and do crazy shit. We had a guy on, Trista, who made a movie about fentanyl use and basically that kids were just using snapchat to get drugs and so they felt safe getting drugs on there because the messages messages disappear yeah yeah yeah that's crazy all right well i'm stoked to have you on when i had you on i thought this was going to be some sort of huge publicity push for the level one for young people to start taking i thought you'd be like oh my god it changed my life but you're you're like you're an old soul compared to me
Starting point is 01:15:54 too late too late i already know you felt like a waste of time i did not say that no okay fine hey did you take the test yeah was it hard it was very hard okay good i'm scared you take the test? Yeah. Was it hard? It was very hard. Okay, good. I'm scared to take the test. Yeah. Oh, you never taken the test? No. Oh, bye Trista.

Starting point is 01:18:19 I feel like I'm 18 again. My skin got oil and I got a pimple. I think it's because of the weather.

Starting point is 01:20:47 It feels like it's asleep. It's got no – I'm being serious. This is taking a lot of concentration to reach it up. I've never had anything like that happen before. But I can feel how tight it is up here, like crazy tight. I bet you have no problem jerking off with that hand. I bet you it heals. jerking off with that hand i bet you like it heals no just overhead oh so if you were jerking off a giant you couldn't do it
Starting point is 01:21:12 fucked yeah it would not work yeah all right not working i'm gonna need a standy oh why my shoulder fucked up yeah and then you know what happened grace pulled this maneuver last night i don't even know why and all of a sudden she's like, hey, let's switch sides of the bed. Oh, interesting. And I'm like, I don't want to. No, I don't want to. I want to sleep on my side of the bed. I turned all my stuff over here.
Starting point is 01:21:33 And she was like, I thought she was joking. But then she was like fucking adamant about it. And then I was like adamant about not switching. And I was like, are we going to get into like an argument over this? I was like, you know what? Fine, I'll just sleep on the side of the bed. Not gonna lie, I didn't really like it that much. I feel out of sorts.
Starting point is 01:21:47 I feel out of sorts. You know what I'm saying? What didn't you like? I understand. What didn't you like about it? Dude, it just feels out of routine. When you're gone for four days in a hotel, I want to come back and be in my fucking spot on my side of the bed.
Starting point is 01:22:01 What was her reason? She wanted to get out of the routine? She just wanted to try something new? She was like, well, you got to have this spot for three years. I was like, well her reason she wanted to get out of the routine she just wanted to try something new she was like well you got to have this spot for three years and I was like well you fucking picked the spot so you put me there now I'm used to it so you left town
Starting point is 01:22:15 and came back and there were some big changes in your house yeah I'm not a fan that's crazy I started to get so worked up dude move the silverware drawer That's what I was going to do I was like you know what
Starting point is 01:22:32 I'm going to rearrange some shit Oh shit And she was I'm going to do that to my wife too See what happens My wife My wife would just do it dude it was but i'm just gonna do it just because i'm a dick so usually she'll like
Starting point is 01:22:52 move to my side of the bed i get up i get up pretty early and stuff for for the gym and things like that although today i got to sleep in i want to do that to my mom i want to go to my mom's house and switch switch two drawers around while she's taking a shitter and there's taking a shower did you move my drawers i'll be like uh-uh mom are you okay no okay sorry just a little change is good um no so she usually will like i'll get up in the morning and i'll head to the gym and then like by the time i because i'll usually lay out my clothes and put in the bathroom so that we could go there and shut the door it doesn't bother her right and then i'll come out and then usually she's like kind of migrated over to my side of the bed and when i leave for places she'll usually sleep over there
Starting point is 01:23:28 and by the way i post this on my instagram there was this huge fucking kitchen knife that she always has over there and her keys because she's like this is my line of defense i'm gonna i'm gonna stab and then jump out the window and run to my car uh what if she accidentally grabs that like it stabs me yeah that's why that's why she doesn't have a gun because she would freak out like my my wife woke up uh this morning and she goes and first thing she says oh my god i'm so glad that was a dream and i'm like oh shit must have had a nightmare or something right well what if'd had a knife and like stabs? Like, Oh man,
Starting point is 01:24:07 I can't believe she keeps it. I'd be scared. Oh, you did put it back. Oh, of course. It's only when I'm not home. Does that thing.
Starting point is 01:24:13 And also, Oh, only when you're not home. Okay. Yeah. So it's funny because we'll go to places and I'm always like, like a hotel or if we're staying at Airbnb and I'm like, okay,
Starting point is 01:24:21 you could, you know, where do you want to sleep? Cause she's like, yeah, they're a part of the bed. And she's like, well, you're going to sleep there because it's closest to the door.
Starting point is 01:24:27 So that way, if any serial killers come in, this was actually like a joke. I forget the name of the comedian. She's like, because if any serial killers come in, like you're going to be there first. Yeah. I was like, yeah, but most likely there's going to be a fire before there's a serial killer
Starting point is 01:24:39 and I'm getting my ass out of there first. That was a stolen joke from a comedian, by the way. But yeah, so she always does that so she picks the spots i'm like okay and then like and then i just came home last night and she flipped my world upside down she's like you gotta sleep on that side it's like you gotta find out why we gotta find out why yeah we get all i'll pit her down more on it but she literally like just kept saying like well because i want to try it i was like why greg bought this um this is like 15 years ago he bought hayley a titanium ice pick
Starting point is 01:25:12 oh shit and i hadn't seen it in 15 years and there was like some like death to jews like day in the united states you, a few months ago. And she was taking the boys to a skate park. And she came home and like, I looked in her purse for the keys or something. And I see the fuck, I see this ice titanium ice pick. I haven't seen in 15 fucking years.
Starting point is 01:25:38 Like, Oh, I didn't know you carried this with you. She goes, I don't. She's like, but it was kill a Jew day. You know?
Starting point is 01:25:43 So I fucking took this to the park in case anyone thought i was they were gonna kill me i was gonna fucking stick stick them with an ice pick i was like damn bitch dude i tell you what that chick is strong if she fucking you better not be some fucking scrawny fucking hobbie you better fucking if you're gonna come from my wife you better yeah cause not only she got that pic but she's fucking fit and strong yeah this bitch is fucking a handful
Starting point is 01:26:14 anyway I thought it was cool I was like thank you Greg Braylon Tender oh next thing you know she'll say, I think I want to have another man join us. But straight from ice pick to more cock in the bed. Interesting. That's step number 12 of his,
Starting point is 01:26:31 uh, camp problem. Bernie Gannon. Problem solver. That was good. She was fun. Oh, she was great.

Chicago's got to be one of the top five biggest cities in the united states right yeah this is their fucking mayor dude you won't believe the shit you thought laurie lightfoot was bad this bad? This guy is horrible. Victim woke racist mayor in Chicago. Why do people hire – why do people elect racist people in these – why are the big towns always electing all the racist people? I don't get it. You won't – you're not going to believe what he says.

Starting point is 01:30:42 Right It's hard being a black man with a black wife with three black kids it's so hard well that's the um that's the whole problem right now we're not we're it's uh i was just listening to a thing with uh patrick bett david and he was like the biggest thing is like we need a hero making machine it's gone that guy's a that guy's a middle eastern fucking guy that came here with nothing no one wanted him to succeed you think it's fucking hard being black try being fucking middle eastern in the latin the united states in the last 30 years yeah or what if we even just take the whole entire race thing out of it and what if we just say hey imagine being the kid
Starting point is 01:31:21 what did you say what if we just take the whole entire race thing out of all of it? Now you're ridiculous. And just focus on context, and you'd be like, oh, wow, here we have this 18-year-old kid whose parents are fucking scumbags, but he's still now working two jobs and bought some books for his younger sister,
Starting point is 01:31:37 so that way she can finish school and has an option, and this guy's putting everything on his back. Like, go find me that kid, and let's fucking talk about him and make him a hero. Go find me the cop that ran into the burning building or the firefighter that ran into the burning building and saved the family and did a selfless act.
Starting point is 01:31:54 That now is if you talk about that or you talk about heroes or anything like that or what people are doing to better their lives or better the people around them, it's like taboo. But if you but if you want to talk about selling you don't understand my mental place right now it's so bad and i i just uh i'm a victim and it's like then people are like yeah we want to hear more about that i hate that victim shit um reporter asked him about his border plans. So, I'll do it. Mayor Cuck, Mayor Racist Cuck, what are your plans for addressing the border? Chicago's being overrun by illegal aliens.
Starting point is 01:32:36 Who attends soccer games, y'all? You know, you all... I'm not a parent in this city. I get it. I'm mayor. I get it. But you're asking... No, no, no, Mr. Mayor. I'm asking you about the border. I'm asking you about the border. I'm asking you about the border, not whether you have semen that can make kids.
Starting point is 01:32:49 No, the border, sir. I'm asking me to give you a date. And I have to court. Do you understand that you have not had a mayor like me? I get that. I have a wife. I have children. They have.
Starting point is 01:32:59 And plus, we still have public safety that we have to address. We still have the unhoused that we have to address. I still have a safety that we have to address. We still have the unhoused that we have to address. I still have a budget that I have to address. And I'm doing all of that with a Black wife raising three Black children on the west side of the city of Chicago. I am going to the border as soon as possible. I have children. I had a follow-up question for him, and I would say, Mayor, after hearing all that, do you think you're at the time in your life and positioned to actually serve the public to the fullest ability? Because it sounds like you're overwhelmed and your schedule is overextended and then have like see what he had to do with that
Starting point is 01:33:30 you know what i mean like address it as the fact of being like hey i understand all that maybe maybe this isn't a good job placement for you do you think you're still capable of the job because you got soccer games and you're victimizing your children and wife um you know philip kelly imagine telling your boss that shit exactly imagine imagine imagine you guys are gonna have to really use your imagination here imagine don fall uh i work at crossfit and don's my boss he's like step on the behind the scenes was supposed to be out already listen listen donnie listen you've never you've never worked with anyone like me donnie you never work with anyone with me i have a jew wife ajganazi wife three boys three jew boys you never work with anyone like me you know what i have to do i have
Starting point is 01:34:16 to coordinate the behind the scenes with obby doing fucking skateboarding you've never worked like with anyone like me i got a jew wife jew i got three jew kids imagine that in this day and age by the way i would say that you could go farther with a i was gonna say a black wife than a jew wife but maybe not jews are fucking gnarly you could do a lot with them they my wife could manifest anything um uh um listen to this this guy ricky guerrero writes some blacks uh love using the race card for everything. I don't care about the blacks using it. It's the fucking whites I'm tired of using it. The only thing worse than a black man feeling sorry for himself for being black is a white man demanding a black man feel sorry for himself for being black.
Starting point is 01:35:00 You have to know that. And that's what it means to be a Democrat. They're demanding. They're demanding, they're demanding this behavior from black skinned people. They're demanding it. You must, if you don't play the, if you're a Democrat, they, and you, and you see a black man and he's not playing the victim, they will tell you you're not black. That I can't make this shit up. I know, I know. I feel like i'm crazy saying it but i'm not there's endless examples of it endless cover the la times they did to larry elder joe biden did it that episode of law and order right right you know what i'm talking about with that yes that
Starting point is 01:35:39 woman was like that got raped or whatever and then yeah the woman got raped yeah yeah i have the luxury of going to therapy he's still he's still yeah he's still the victim even though he raped me yeah dude what a tough time it really it really is a tough time to be black because you have all these people fucking demanding you be act like a piece of shit it's a tough time to just want to take personal responsibility it's a tough if it's a tough time to be the hero for your family or your community, it's a tough time to be a positive contributor. It's a tough time to be a rational, logical thinker.
Starting point is 01:36:12 This is what he's saying, right? Someone writes. So apparently having a black wife and three black kids prevents him from doing his job and answering questions that that's the, that's the only logical takeaway. That's right. That's why that followup question would be so important about like,
Starting point is 01:36:25 hey, maybe this job isn't for you if you have all the soccer games going on. How we do it? I'm a 55-year-old white man with six grandchildren, and I'm tired, y'all. There's no one else like me. That's why I'm not doing my job. Damn, y'all. Yeah, exactly. It's crazy.
Starting point is 01:36:39 You have six grandkids, and you're 55. I have three kids, and I'm 51 Trump anyway it's crazy it's just fucking nuts yeah it's an interesting it's a very interesting time Black John Young thank you because I don't like to play the victim myself
Starting point is 01:37:07 but this is just the truth people Seban has it worst he's black and Armenian with a Jewish family I really I just leave it at that but you know my problems are real my problems are real got into a debate with my mom last night about what about whether the
Starting point is 01:37:34 she thinks that the show could be better if i was less crass in my mom's defense i brought in my defense more listeners and in in my mom's defense i brought in my defense more listeners and and and in my mom's defense i'm the one who brought it up i don't think and and then she but i will tell you this she's probably probably gonna get in trouble for saying this and i was like it won't be better if it's crap if it's less crass and she says well it's and then she went to this well it sucks you think you have to make it crass in order for it to be good. I go, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. I think you're just in denial of how crass your son really is. I don't force this crassness.
Starting point is 01:38:13 I really reeled in the crassness today with our guest today, whoever that was. Yeah, because you understand nuance really well. You're not going to have Trista on here. Yeah, of course. I felt like she was just a little girl. Like it was my daughter on the show. Well, when it started with her being like, well, I have school, and you were like, do you take the bag lunch?
Starting point is 01:38:31 I was like, that puts into perspective pretty quickly. Yeah, right? Yeah. Her mom still like fucking draws a happy face on her peanut butter and jelly. Mm-hmm. My mom used to put a happy face on my brown bag. I loved it. It brought me joy. Did your mom make you lunch? happy face on my brown bag i loved it it brought it brought me joy
Starting point is 01:38:45 did you did your mom make you lunch put in a brown bag yeah yeah there is like it it would go kind of back and forth depending yeah ebb and flow jobs and stuff yeah of course like yeah mine wasn't consistent either we had like the bot lunch too and then we definitely have like the packed lunches and i love the packed lunches my dad used to make them too uh it would um no shit if i stayed the night at my dad's house on a school night the shit we would get would be just crazy it would just be like a plastic it would be like a plastic bag with like a piece of lahmacun in it and a slice of lemon do you know what lahmacun is no no lahmacun yeah it'd be some weird shit the other kids I'd get beat up at school
Starting point is 01:39:27 if my dad packed my lunch you can't open yours inside a closed building because it smelled so bad yes yes it's like really there had to be three pounds of garlic on my lunch so the other kids are making fun of me Judy Reed I wrote notes in their lunch
Starting point is 01:39:42 till my kids told me to stop oh that's fucking funny it's funny because the kids will look back and really like wish that till my kids told me to stop. Oh, that's fucking funny. It's funny because the kids will look back and really like wish that they didn't tell you to stop at some point. Right. Yeah, Judy probably sent her kids just with a fucking Ziploc bag full of rice. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:40:04 Ziploc bag full of rice. no wonder pool boys so fucking wound up my dad would make me grilled tri-tip sandwiches i was the cool kid at school because of it and everyone wanted to uh some of my meat yeah i remember every now and then you'd get like you'd come back with the mcdonald's lunch or something like you would have some sort of appointment you'd leave campus and have to come back halfway. And you'd be the person carrying the, you got a happy meal. You got like a toy in your lunch,
Starting point is 01:40:30 just balling out on the other kids. It chopsticks. It's too funny. All right. What did we do? What, what did we do for, um,
Starting point is 01:40:43 what did we do for, uh, what are we do for tomorrow? What do you mean? Who do we have tomorrow? We're just back on the same schedule. Okay, so we're doing Greg tomorrow. Yeah, I just figured we'd just keep it flowing because the next two weeks, the schedule is kind of packed.

Okay, here we go So I just finished 6.25 mile run.

Why do some people look so cute when they run? I mean, I've got my... Move, bitch, get out my fucking way. It's Black History Month.
Starting point is 01:42:22 That's happened to me probably at least 20 times in different iterations. In different iterations. Or someone told you to move? Or they told you to move specifically because it's Black History Month? No, or Black person fucking punks me because I'm white. I never punked anyone
Starting point is 01:42:40 because of their skin color in my whole life. Never. But 20 times I've been punked like that that guy walked by and goes move bitch it's black history month she's just on the sidewalk talking to her camera yeah i would have said that i should have said that i am black i one of the funniest ones was uh i was in berkeley and i was talking to two two two of my friends and we were on the sidewalk and there was plenty of room to go around us Plenty of room, we're in front of a coffee shop
Starting point is 01:43:07 And this black guy walks right in between All three of us and pushes us as he walks through Goes, get the fuck out of the way, Donald Trump This was like in 2016 or 17 I bet you that guy votes for Trump this year Yeah, yeah, yeah, the tides have changed Dude, I have an interesting story. When I got dropped off, when I just went to the health summit,
Starting point is 01:43:27 I got there in the airport in the Uber driver. Please tell me some black dude punked you for being white. Please tell me. Well, it was a Mexican dude. But the Uber, I could see it circling around. And at the airport in Austin, there's a specific spot for Ubers to go to and taxis and stuff. And he couldn't find it.
Starting point is 01:43:41 So I'm calling him. And I'm like, hey, I'm just going to walk out to where arrivals are. Well, we go to leave the airport. And there's big clear signs this is like exit the airport this way like go back into the loop this way and he's like in this side then he like turns to go back into the loop and i'm like sir you just you're looping back around again he's like oh i'm sorry i'm having trouble with this gps so then as we're coming back around the second time he goes to pull over because he's having trouble with his gps but now my uber side is off like it's no long like we're no longer connected for the ride and i'm like hey we're not connected for the ride like how do we figure this out and then he turns and by the way he was an older asian dude so i definitely would have thought this was like a
Starting point is 01:44:16 threatening situation if it wasn't for the fact that i was in the back seat and just would have fucked him up but he was like okay well do you have cash and i was like no i don't have cash and i was like but i will venmo you like here's how much the price was. It was 25 bucks. You can still see it on the Uber app. Like if you want to take me there. And so he's like, okay. And he starts to drive and he's like, well, I don't know. It's not, it's not connecting. It's not connecting. And I'm like, this is so weird. So he goes and then he gets off. Like he's headed outside of the airport now. I'm like, Hey dude, we're not connected. And I don't have any means to pay you. Like, how is this going to go? And he goes, okay, yeah, you're right. He drives right
Starting point is 01:44:47 across the cross street. Like, like underneath the freeway makes a right into where the Starbucks is and just stops. And I go, okay, so what am I, I'm getting out here. And he's like, yes, I don't know. It's not connecting blah, blah, blah. So I'm like, okay, fuck it. So I, I grabbed my, you know, my roller bag and I got my backpack and I get out. He drives maybe up 200 yards in parks. And right as the car moves, I could see it directly across the street at the gas station there's typical like out of a hollywood movie like shaved head cholo looking dudes hanging out two cars parked like this one of them's kind of like a one of them's kind of like a a low rider and then what city is this this is austin austin texas then there's this other dude standing there with two dogs on a fucking chains oh yeah yeah yeah for sure for sure pimps so both of them just like
Starting point is 01:45:29 berkeley i think they're pimps dude they like look over at me and i kind of see them and i'm like okay and so i pay no mind i like get on my phone i'm trying to get another uber and then i hear him whistle and i'm like well there's only a couple of us out here right but there's some distance i got like you know at least 150 feet, 200 feet between us. Why did you get out? Why didn't this guy just take you to your spot? Dude, because it like there was the communication was zero. It was like, I didn't understand if he didn't speak English.
Starting point is 01:45:57 Like he kept ignoring anything I would say. He kept just like pressing onto the GPS. And I was like, dude, you're not even on the Uber app anymore. Like it was just an impossible situation. And, um, and so he, I like how there's you and Asian dude and a Mexican dude.
Starting point is 01:46:12 I like, and everyone's fulfilling their roles. Asian dude can't drive Mexican dudes being D bags. It's just fucking great. Good. I just love it. So luckily I looked down, right.
Starting point is 01:46:22 And I could see that there's an Uber, like just about this stoplight. It's saying it's like 750 feet away or a thousand feet away. So luckily I looked down, right? And I could see that there's an Uber, like just about this stoplight. It's saying it's like 750 feet away or a thousand feet away. So I'm like, okay. So I pressed that one for it to, for it to come. And then I hear the guy whistle again. And so I'm like, okay, I got two choices, right? And there's nobody inside this, uh, Starbucks at all.
Starting point is 01:46:39 And I'm the only one in that parking lot. And so I was like, okay, here's what I'm going to do. I'm just going to stand closer to the sidewalk. I'm not going to posture on him or that group, but I'm not going to fucking turn and move away because then that's going to be like they know. So I stand up and I move a little bit closer to the edge and then I kind of stand a little bit taller
Starting point is 01:47:00 and now I got my phone down and I got my head just up like this, right? On a swivel, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. we go so then he then he whistles again i hear the name no mommy's way and he starts to march over with the dogs oh shit so what i do is i just position myself directly towards him and just stare in my town if you're out on the street like that and you look like that and you have dogs you're a pimp where i grew up where i grew up in berkeley and oakland he wasn't a pimp no no no no so then i'm just i'm just kind of like looking at him staring at him he's clearly making his way to me and i'm just trying to think like okay like how is this about to play out right and there's i don't think that the starbucks would
Starting point is 01:47:41 have been much of a refugee and so then it's very obvious that they're like he's like maneuvering towards me as he's still like saying what kind of dogs what kind of dogs i don't know they weren't like pit bulls but they looked kind of like that pit bull like brie but it wasn't like super obvious to me that they're pit bulls but they were big dogs and they were just on chains you know what i mean like they don't have like leashes he's just got two fucking chains yeah and i'm starting to think like damn this is kind of a shitty situation because i don't really have much means of defense against these dogs or anything right um which would yeah which just could have gone wrong but anyhow as he starts to move over the fucking i look over and the light had turned green and it was like uber guy pulls in right in front of him
Starting point is 01:48:21 parks like right to here i pop his backseat open so quick i'm like hey sir how you doing throw my shit in there and shut the door and the guy just kind of still kind of walks we go to drive away and then he turns around and goes back in and it was like make eye contact with him did you look at him as we left yeah but he couldn't see me in the car at that point because it was but he was staring at the car yeah it was going down like he like he was i think it was a test and being around he was gonna ask you for money he was gonna ask you for money i mean how you know have you you've you've been in you you've been in the bay area dude you know how that works hey bro what you doing out here what you got in that bag what you got for me bro and then it's like you're you're you know hey come about your
Starting point is 01:48:59 pockets you know what i mean all that type of shit starts to go down and i was just thinking like damn everyone fulfilling their stereotypes everyone so next time you're like oh that's racist or that's prejudice uh-huh yeah asian guy can't drive kicks you out of the car uh mexicans fucking with uh fucking two cars pointed at each other acting like ding dongs at the gas station just got a little sketch to get the heart rate up a little bit that's all i got the heart rate up a little bit. That's all. I got the heart rate up a little bit. Hey, no, no, no one. No one's no one's being racist. No one's being prejudiced. These are the details of the story.
Starting point is 01:49:30 And it all starts with the white guy trying to use his Uber. And the emphasis of it is like, fuck. Something like that happens. I think that 90% of the time is a crime of opportunity. So there's little tests, right? The test is I whistle. Does he look? The test is that then I say something and maneuver towards him. Now, am I going to cower? Am I going to try to play the whole, well, I'll just turn away and go into my phone and hope it's not happening. Right. And so in my mind, I'm thinking, okay,
Starting point is 01:49:59 all these things are tests. And so if I just stand there and kind of make eye contact, not a posture way, but like, hey, I know you're here and I'm here and like this, I'm aware of this situation. Usually it won't end up as bad because they're like, do I really want to have to deal with somebody who I can't just pull them over easy, right? You can't just get over on them easy. So it was, yeah, it was a little sketch coming into the uh airport there uh poor boy suzer's too cute to just ask for money he wanted to taste it taste yeah well it's a good thing i didn't have a gun because the first line of defense would have been shoot one of his fucking
Starting point is 01:50:35 dogs uh i was in i was in portland one time same uh hanging out with these four guys uh we were looking for a building to go to a meeting and and this black guy walks up and pushes all four of us through between us and then as he gets through us to the other side he's like what the fuck guys and then his two buddies were on the outside and they start laughing they're like oh fuck those old white guys up and i'm thinking of myself and i at least one of the guys i was with was carrying a gun and i was thinking god it's like i see how it goes down like i like i see how it goes down yeah and here's the thing that's why i don't buy that's why i don't buy any of the racism shit that's why like i like when you grow up in the bay area like you you just you you see the world totally different totally different the whole world's
Starting point is 01:51:26 telling you that you're racist or that black people are oppressed but you never see it no all you all you see is your shit getting punked all the time and you never think of it as like and you're still not racist like i still don't think anything more or less of like like i had just as many white people do that shit to me too and mexican people but like i never but i never but i've also never seen white people do that to black people ever ever ever ever they're terrified to be accused of that so yeah yeah but he is welcome that's california people for you by the way maybe it's different oklahoma maybe you guys are racist motherfuckers out there but not in the big state with 40 mil yeah look at look at braylon braylon uh tender fitness
