I'm your host, Pam Pekolsky.

Today we're going to talk to Elliot Hulse, a gentleman that came to fame through YouTube

0:46.3

strength camp and now has evolved into being sort of an outspoken leader or philosopher, if you will, as far as being extremely educated

0:58.1

in a lot of areas. Elliot's very, very opinionated. He's got a very strong opinion. He's got a very

1:02.1

strong voice. He's an incredible guest. We had an incredible long conversation about some
