| 0:00.0 | Shrugged family, we are back! Another week, Mr. Ronnie Teasdale hanging out with us. |
| 0:06.8 | Raw of the earth, Robbie Schonder. This conversation starts off a tad bit slow, but I |
| 0:13.8 | need to tell you that we climbed all the way to the top of Beverly Hills to |
| 0:19.4 | hang out in Ronnie Teasdale's house. Ronnie is a very interesting human. I have |
| 0:27.3 | known him since 2010. I've been a massive fan of his since 2010 and since the day |
| 0:34.7 | that I met him or learned about him, he has done things radically different than |

| 1:34.2 | the next month. It started on Thursday. Doug arrived in San Diego. We interviewed |
| 1:39.2 | Dr. Teresa Larson, Brett Contreras, and then Doug and I did a Q&A 90 minutes on |
| 1:45.8 | Olympic lifting. On Friday, we interviewed Matt and Wade from Biohacker on |
| 1:54.3 | digestive enzymes, which was a phenomenal show. Dr. Jenna Scare, Dr. Jant Fit, |
| 2:01.1 | one of my favorite humans of all time. Jill Miller, is there anybody that has a |
| 2:05.8 | larger zest for life and so much knowledge about fascia in our body? And then we |
| 2:12.4 | had dinner in downtown Beverly Hills with Ben Bruno after he just destroyed |
