Is sumo actually HARDER than conventional? Oct 27, 2022

Show notes

Our own Avi Lieu and Kyle Castro chop it up with us as ponder this and a few more questions. Is Ye smart, mentally ill, or both? Is using Melanotan worth having an orange dick? Does the Liver King have fake abs? Is being humble critical to good sportsmanship? Or is it ok to be a hot dog, and to publicly celebrate your victories? Is Conor McGregor’s trash talk overrated? Would Mike be a good dad?
We had a lot of fun with this one.

Show notes

This week’s question from Discord:
Mikexbull asked “As someone who wants to open a gym eventually - what do you think is the most important part of the planning?

What we got wrong Oct 19, 2022

Show notes

We all make decisions based on the information we’re exposed to, the people around us, and what makes sense to us as individuals. In this episode, we discuss beliefs we’ve held during our time as lifters that have proven to be partially…or completely…wrong. Sometimes the “one right answer” has an expiration date we don’t see coming.
