do you Harry be doing boys times are gonna keep going there for a second better adjust buffer so you know it's for the best we - Troy we do Troy hey this madness weekend look everyone else I think em strange place for the world to be isn't it for that it's it's places well I don't say that I mean in a in a way now that I've seen so many nice things happen in them people stepping forward neighbor helping each other come like the world stops to know people are like waving at each other and you know not major in the streets and stuff like that again there is like a positive side to it the Friesen of the world for him yeah I think you can sort of look for a positive outlook on anything I think you know a chose or people really care about you know their social media stuff is probably a little bit less important than like those clothes around you are that bit more important and obviously pani your your cancer in your local area so people may look to you with these times of trouble so what's it like in your area and what's the community feel at the moment and we have to say well we blessed with a good community always and they are snow cones around happens everybody's always giving each other they go so I'm gonna I'm gonna blast like that you know so kind of seem like everything is as being gone well I don't care to be honest and we've helped a few people obviously weird voice on them when they lost their jobs and social welfare and I could have had people can form was printed I've actually have to print them in your household as well so the forums are given of the people and you're just kind of doing what you can do you know about him at the time like this is where it says you're limited in a way that we're all trying to avoid with the rules and staying sort of houses in there and I leave a contact with people as well go ahead that's going to what's really going they own a day at the moment no burning party honey I don't go all politics with you but I'll do I do have a question Aussie champagne like will be general election by a landslide like it was the best potent errands I think that's ever happened in the country like first graph and folks like off-the-charts just question for you and leave Rikers never got a lot of praise now with their kinda on don't you think I'm caught there is no government in power that you know leave rocker has a chance of retain disease and we think a perception has a as a huge part in the world on him the access to be able to broadcast that as well as it is merciful I don't think it same tell any stories if it was the same RTE what a big boy estate issues angel in the election and I haven't really seen any other and parties on the national broadcasts and we've seen ministers that lost their seats and address in the nation and stuff like that so him to me I don't know which we've kind of observing a from a from from a fire and air and and people are saying the wake up a little bit social media is helping people to wake up and then they're trying to make their own minds and link the lines and stuff like that together so a the story will be told and so media outlets we actually heard a media outlet and they wrote here today and Mary who and though Mary you know McDonald's which was like very disrespectful there the woman is sick your hope said she said that she she posted on her Instagram we were a call lately horse on the school was the for school to come down with coronavirus and she got they to isolate at the start so I'm I think it's pretty clear when so many media outlets are taken and making fun of people like that will air in situations we've got to chose no enmity and it shows disrespect and I don't think you would see that convey it away so and if it did go your way you would it would definitely hear them so em I think there's definitely and they everything that has happened has been said by shan shan and before it has happened there probably day as a few days actually too late it's mabel and the government whatever they own em they take the calls of being in were ahead of most countries in the new words are looking good so amber I think after this what they should have did in my own opinion shouldn't everybody should have created a national party we should have pre unity and I believe the word unity was used in the same sentence as except I don't think that works so we sort of humanoid everybody together solve this problem shook hands and then maybe went back to the ballot boxes after this that would have been muy em that's trigger trinh-duc a democracy that would have been and it's a shame if two parties go off to the side now I have a description in the middle of a crisis and form a government for the next four years and I don't think that's fair on the urge people and that's just my opinion Oh actually pretty much buddy you only think I think that's what they are doing behind closed doors and I don't think it's right the people vote one way you know the people should be given what they want bought nope you know I mean you gotta play the full avenue or whatever has are too senseless for all in there get in any trouble newspapers in any way yeah well there you have them in like a like an over posture for as well and I can see you're really helping the community as well as grating to see and do well this I loves you came from becoming an MMA star and I don't and can you bring us back to the beginning of your MMA career and all them wounds them Star Wars and all and celebrity now all that gets me a little bit literally and we're just a little red red fellow from jobs and all that just that just went for it you know we always had lots of energy and ammo slots interests in all different culture sports him but when we found geo martial arts clinic when we found that little that camaraderie am in it was look for him this week saying my books win for their family that we wanted I wanted that to be able to express loyalty and passion and empathy into all of them things that we feel that we have an abundance and but the thing about them sometimes you can put them you can give too much of them you don't mean and you can be you have to be very careful nearing that and all as I get all that because they can drain your energy ways your me create relationships and stuff like that giving so much to them sometimes really they disappear and we would have had lots of lots of relationships that and what's close anymore and some people that wouldn't be in as close to that I'm even more close to it now so in Myanmar as an added support when I for standoff fell enough that was it I found jujitsu and and that was there we just I knew he was gonna do it I was driving home and they were sending me friend Dean and I'm gonna do this for the rest of me life and then the mm 18 kind of kind of happened that on the on the road so and I was always able to really grooving it in the total area and we have to be able to fight you know and yet you probably had a little scuffle every every day to be hopeless so I had the idea of understanding what a family when you're walking towards it for you to go you know it's gonna happen and you can quit again you can also more comfortable it's never as comfortable as you wanted to be able you start real always right it's going down so not just talk anymore you know so and then we're MMA always able to like you when you accept in a freak and and then you're moving towards it because this does this little uncomfortable flirtatious feeling going on inside yeah heard it said and that's it who lived that was that was my drug for sure oh I remember the first time I actually remember I met here was I've seen the Regency Hotel I think was a battle zone was the first one actually met in person other the Jack's always weird say note some of the Jack's you know anytime ever seen you since that you've always been very pleasant you're always pleasant boy you say hello to everyone the outcome for everyone I think that made you for a hero amongst yours people I know you don't like that sort of that moniker but at the end of the day like you're such a likable guy you're you're one of us and I think that's what really makes people relatable and you're UFC career it was sad niko george do two years for a healthy health issues like if sound office which are buying when you fought a new sea-doo boom I know you're on the Olson foyer first ball when you started off your UFC debut in the three arena you were the current jerker I'm actually you have a my hardest fight to the leg and sample the sample was like hard nosed mostly wrestler and I was like he's like oh he's in for a rough one here and then you went out there and you kicked off what was known as the takeover yeah am i equal to be according godzilla with a baseball bat they're all telling you I flattened him that day and the something about that arena when it's like in you could redeem yourself or something like that just amplify you you know and it's the dressing room is a lot to do and what's going on and if free trade can be nuclear force battle there you know so and I felt really sharp there and we're always talking about the chimp paradox so we talked about again there's a chimp in so age it's a tournament with a professor who loved the book it's a book it's incredibly incredible book I've been looking for looking at looking for a good boy there but there's a part in here that just wants to rule away already wants to just he wants you to make a decision and the human and it's just a normal day wouldn't so DJ so to me when you get to the door get to the door industry arena it was like looking across the river reach him and the ball was were on a perfect like equilibrium we both knew what was gonna happen we wanted free to each other he wasn't pulling me one way and he wasn't pulling him do it away we were already I'm gonna walk in I felt like I was only like skateboarding sounds weird but and it was going out there to get the force win UFC you mean on oil and the last one way it stood there or he was sitting in the crowd watching Tom Egan making that walk and like to be making it and then you're walking Leslie I knew it was aware of this this is a dream like this is something that if you can accomplish this we here right now when it comes back to you being 60 70 years of age or your deathbed or whatever petty this moment is going to be something that you've accomplished that so I knew that I was never able to get being that that I mean it could mean anybody that me yeah just feel extra pressure and going out like knowing that you were first and that you were almost like sitting schmuck yeah or like or did not even affect your was just like here this is all me I'm gonna go out and just do it for me and just when I'm there it's in me face you can see it when we gave her nose and we finally knows it when I'm dead and walking it's like it's just like it's like we faced towards office one of the muscles don't work and so even look at the photograph oh you know when I was there I wasn't there even with younger fruits and so we'd already felt pressure you know to me or just an idea to do a job I'm not walking in taking we agree if we don't win that this happens and it's just it's bliss it's one of these moments where you just focus on the moment you don't think about the aftermath and you don't think before you don't think in between you just think about that moment that each individual moment as it goes on at the foot and I think that's that's good advice to give you in for your as well like some people to be talking about what I will I've got a job over the cage to me that would scare me when we hear when we let say that when we get saying that be you know cuz they you need to be it's free it's for free it's free a toilet moment you need to be it's your only Kenny what's a dog for you is it you're just just thinking about that would I playing a move and a little move if you make the wrong movement you're gone you don't have claim or not I remember I remember after the filing party you walk around the arena as if you were a fan and like I remember when when a star photograph with you and you're like I'm just trying to get a cup of tea or the same cup of tea from all back then penny hero moments do you remember when you're on the area of Hawaii show and he was so trying to like show you all the t's and be like like this tea gently this tea and I was like he actually just doesn't get it he didn't he didn't get that was like this is just like lions or berries P towards people and that's it there is no other teas was this awesome was that a boss that one after that yeah he told you to be a soul smile to bear that it's like he's just kind of saying all these days what did I am if he over the league they say oh that was green he was no gradient and we met him a couple Indian boy would you it's louise our buddies but that's it that's it you're at a geographical my hair is now yeah Lawrence for the dogs and their berries for the country Babel waiter home down for about to say never damn we're drinking parties are millions player in Louie no honey oh used to be all about balloons but then if I know berries - you know your product noise out and then loins isn't anymore we hate these I was backing up the wrong tree I think we sack to be selves to be honest cute they did the job are you here I have a question for here right what way to make a terrific Appetit because my cell phone Ross making two separate ways so one of us needs to be sent to jail yeah he doesn't matter it's my team you were the second page now ask me that today s'mores I just like how to make a pair of the cupcakes tell us what way do you make your tea or hot boiled up on the count yeah yeah put the bag in the bottom yeah war on the bag got a wet to buy it early and then you put the sugar so we take one and two Spears so a heap of it and we party because it melts on the way down and in the middle class then I would store it yeah if you put the milk in food forced you just go straight to jail oh do you pour the milk in with the tea bag in it it's called infusion and then you give a little can you watch it's magic oh you stupid videos only the grandmother it's magic kung fu I said the rusty Mason with he pours the milk on top of the rest of it but only take the tea by Gavin Vanport and again what happens easy are too much milk in keep it clean keep it clean oh yeah tell us this headed the ball combo was that something you always wanted to do or add some protein with a book idea or way back at him he'll online from Easons right now listen we're not I'm not just saying when I read that book back or he was like holy [ __ ] like I think that's crap okay what another like a good book you heard of him I didn't want to have a book that was whistling I've read books where like could have not made that you know but I wanted to make a book that agree Iranian you put it down you're like we need to tell him I like some people that the main he was to make sure that people can understand that anybody can do it more stories from Stan from the stand if you read it to the end it's like wait if you start the booth that you have no excuses you can make it you know what I mean and that comes a huge part of it to be able to like I don't know I don't knows me as a kid we used to have this little insecurity in me maybe the same between house on you know Sam I don't know whether it's tough comes with that you know you miss my own stones are you feeling today we don't know insecure types and that can come into your adulthood and I used to be real particular but we closed as a kid used to make sure we close we're always fresh and we may be able to keep brick well you stay watching your hats with two bushes and watch me orders and stuff like that and if somebody said to me they like to stay your orders your school for so that gave me I don't know whether that's still around those kids they were seems like it's probably even worse because when we look at it now we can really see it from the young so in this week you know you can recognize it so we quite a ways going around like the Gucci here there when the Canadian goose jackets Hillman but that's that's that's comma flashing away you don't to be in it's for what for what I'm saying in a way well he was coming to differ Gucci was but he could did he seem not know so yeah yeah you don't fit him if you don't have to get like someplace to close many people feel Google and wanting to say that when when I wrote the book I want the people think well that's not that but we talk about that insecurity as a kid and how we could've understood it and grown past it or what the people that are pretty in this moment let's pick up the book read it and go oh [ __ ] that's me and maybe realize that I'm not on their own and they're not the only one that feels like that you know so air that was the main tagger with the book but the book came about with him we manage or someone hit management and sat down me him and I'm rich he bought it from called the arena and he said this is like Paula pond also started the managers like this a few times fella don't tell myself actually Paul's in for it so he said Richie by reform pulled the arena and be just that mingling with the sorority and then me and which he meant for hours like sometimes six hours at a to him and if he came back up like a story this you know to me and then like you're gonna bring it all down and then game came on board and then I'm forming state and pushed in story time yeah it was good it was it was great experience so again we don't know paid her to be or something like that it was good a chance to clear up alert authorities as well you don't clear mm you know situations happen that's happened there but no one ever wants to ask you and it sometimes people make decisions based on what maybe they think Jerry who's going out few things and then get up chest with everybody Terrence I want it wouldn't be one of your proudest achievements with the book like I'm sure you two boys must be two boys and you put all those achievements for sure and the rest is all just belongs to be honest I'm sorry that all is it's great team it absolutely will be and we'll be dead in god and a 200 years hopefully some kid Pele started you know leads and it's like the legacy goes on we name goes back to the DEA to test the no shame hook assets a it's been a great business venture of yours you find loads multiple like found hard to guess in the show well who's your favorite guest rapper having the show I would have to correct you there business venture is the wrong word because we have to this day took zero from the notion podcast early we say no the sponsorship just because we just walk on it's me and Robin Robins amazing producer and he's the brains of the walk for we've made we don't make a have from the podcast the podcast was created to be a terrible business of enter me probably the three or four hours a week you know and it gives me a platform that not only that we can give the people that for charities for for all sorts of stuff and some of these people that want the room say we don't know 400 Moyles in ten minutes you know we want to listen to him you know so am that you only use fascination but I'm educating meself for these people so we'll be forced to say especially in we don't know we might oh my I'm a beginner in the politics do you know maybe I'm a blue better animals in politics for and but we to get people into the studio to educate not only me but other people and to open a discussion it's hard to have discussion these days it's the rarest team posture around with them you can't have the school have the squishy where we well you don't know what's going on sometimes and he talks with ten parts going on you know look I sounds and you look what do we think of that and if the ability to change me more and so those claims where we've had a view within some of the central dimension Allah that makes a lot of sense and I look at a different way or and then with the ability to change just trying to be there the best human that is out there you know so it's nearly like a learning process for me with the part the best guests we've had that's the long answer for your question we probably have to be probably Gerry Adams were there or the other big Chihuahua big scalp big Gerry Gerry Adams is an amazing man as well looking the way over there when we set here to start there the podcaster he sat there and he wasn't really talking too much he'll say all right okay all right okay being wrong with a little bit meh Revis who's your team can read this podcast is just going to be like oh yeah okay okay okay a little bit bad bye Jenny - go tell him start just already telling me the other way and that's what doors are go for is we be they won't say the second mass guess not because we've had no some amazing ones in there for and I had a go in a mute on somos el their hair loss so they used to roll with 2pac back in the day you know so he was came up with Tupac telling stories about like a 2-pack called him it was Lube a week before he do it and put all his jewelry or the table I said pick any one you want tomorrow you know actually does actually a thing on the Instagram we just shared as a story packed for me and mom's parents were killed when he was a kid but he was in the house so he were murdered while he was there and him and his brother I left the house for 24 hours with his parents bodies so he was he was really sort of know he's I think of into Islam male and he's one of the most inspirational lads that you never talk please he had such an insight you know what I mean and we can be religious at all but sometimes he punched himself open and that's a that little way of relief before he's just talking about there you can see how have a good initially it's true that you know the men so am I can see where it comes from a little even what an amazing guest yeah feels good yeah well there's one thing I think we can all agree on is like doing doing podcast then people get to me in chat and it's something that never existed before and it's unbelievable that we can do it you know it's very important just to sort of assume up here I'm a career just haven't talked too much about it I mean you made that walk in Dublin and I know you went over you lost in kind of we made 50 G's over and you want to Boston I think woman Glasgow and then your swan song was doing your headlining honestly we smoked it didn't go your way but no better place to be away from to your hometown I know we didn't know at the time I was your am Barrow moment poor he was he Dublin the fur and for yourself was not here at the final moment your career I would always be with as my career and what I what would have happened I think if we had a world where not the one a belt or anything like that I would have been the best model take that one with the way Lewis was literally like if Robbie red wouldn't have booked it was Louie for debt for me with that moment that's we that's the if we was watching the film that's what I would expect they did the disability to play out like you know like we had only was he came from depression before I know it was depressed on Milo he was after he was before at the time I didn't even know it kind of already discovered over the last few years that he was just in this dark place scoffs toyed found our lives doing research for the book on all that was that you know no man and broke and oh you had this problem in backward sleepy disc with two surgeries and one of them we did it we made all the way back I was doing well again and then we slipped disc again like the failure was just cool and I mean way and then and in that chance came so to me that was like really everything you've done is for this mom and aunt amélie stand there and that mom would after getting that weird letter just fall off your body to just be like Noah this is it this is that that's really what it made of it's a never give up on him so I thought that was probably that would be my best one would regardless don't know what that was but though the whole question that was the whole Western what was your best moment you know what the last moment when it came to Ma Nevada I just went thinking about the results or the opponents all right without was gone for it you know like point down when you're gonna share all of your fists and you get the four is very that sort of the character you are I mean like yeah you're special like a blue-collar doily you work hard and you care about those around I'm like that's for the people bottom rope I you but hey look at hero Cheers and what we are doing that sometimes people I think that they come across with the to fight children away look weird I don't know who some say Clay Guida or Diego Sanchez doesn't like that they all he wasn't well he was they all used to be clever as well you know I wasn't known in the a just a standing on my knee drops we just don't need a smarty I mean put there man that was it to me if you choke something that's a carry on her poke I said eh no Ian Gary isn't hey jurors he was saying though like if he actually was like the knock is for the fans but he's like if I can actually talk to them that means I'm better than them so he always prefer getting submission I think was Eddie Bravo said this in a way of it was any brown or maybe I'll be giving him the wrong credit for that but he said in on a battlefield the thing about you do too is the thing about boxing this was who you are crazy sports or wherever you dropped some and that's it like it's it's over or in jujitsu or in the in a submission quitters parent of it you've literally died that day so apart from that happen just see you know I mean okay to me that's that well no he was gone a day that's helped but now sounds like mental more we never knew whether it was gonna be me last woman which way I was gonna go there's a place in lose we hide you know you have a kid I was I was I was crying Allegiant Iowa was gone this is the belief in the way whatever happens happens balls to the wall you know I mean I was gone like and and a fortune you would be in still gone for it if we had to be like I don't want in a place in the world I know it's a big looking at ESL from safety and soft 14:29 endemic now with the moment you'd only there's many beeping on the toy as many people that haven't waited so sad and also me you should be me because we never know like and say for four years anything in the equivalent of one has happened near where the world issues stopped there's no food there's no anything we don't know you don't mean we were awkward if somebody had said to me on that day do you have - Latoya that's that's the feeling we got you know it's forever so it's a it's a horrible horrible feeling when I was like watching a matric in Kansas when you're on the wagon or soup look we've achieved after party like even like has he been elected at the book you look your own Jim as well like I mean you're your journey has been you know next level and we appreciate you bringing them springless off it's been phenomenal journey and you know you're a credit to yours people we don't support you on all your future ventures and thanks million
