Dolph Lundgren on Beating Cancer, Sahil Bloom Talks 5 Types of Wealth & Gen-Z’s Minecraft Movie Madness Apr 14, 2025

Show notes

Dolph Lundgren returns to share the deeply personal story of his battle with cancer, including a misdiagnosis that nearly cost him his life. He opens up about growing up with an abusive father, his journey to healing through martial arts and therapy, and how nearly dying gave him a new perspective on life. The conversation spans his iconic Hollywood career, offbeat early days at Studio 54 with Grace Jones and Andy Warhol, and his upcoming documentary chronicling it all.

Later, Sahil Bloom sits down with Adam to talk about the downside of hustle culture and how being “busy” isn’t the same as being productive. He shares the five types of wealth he focuses on—time, social, physical, mental, and financial—and explains how he structures his day to avoid distraction and burnout. They also get into social media addiction, family life, and what it really means to have balance in a modern world.

In the news, Adam and Mayhem Miller react to the DOJ’s investigation into billions of dollars spent on homelessness in Southern California, with federal officials hinting at upcoming arrests for fraud and corruption. They also dive into the unexpected chaos surrounding The Minecraft Movie, which has turned into a Gen Z and Gen Alpha cult hit, complete with rowdy theater antics, popcorn-throwing, and full-blown pandemonium.

Show notes

Adam and Drew open the show discussing their mutual affinity for the use of buck slips before getting into a discussion about the progression in air travel distances and how as a result we now have smaller planes going much further distances than they once did.

They then turn to the phones and speak to a caller who has questions about the idea of fasting and whether it’s safe and effective as well as another caller concerned for his pregnant wife.
