| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, Chris Gethen here and welcome to another episode of the Knowledge and Mileage |
| 0:07.8 | podcast. Today we have quite the different guest. His name is Kai Wachi. Not only is that his |
| 0:15.8 | DJ name, that actually his is real name. So I got to know Kai many, many months ago, being a local |
| 0:25.4 | resident of Boise, Idaho, he was somebody that I selected to go through a 12-week transformation. |
| 0:32.7 | He'd put on some weight, got a little bit fluffy in the quote unquote off season, and I needed a male and a |
| 0:41.0 | female to transform over a 12-week period to show others that doesn't matter what your |
| 0:48.3 | background is, what your job is, you can transform. Now, being a popular DJ, Kai travels a lot. And he's in an industry, |
| 0:58.1 | which is usually associated with drugs, alcohol and bad food. He's quite the opposite. |
| 1:03.5 | He is the evangelist for training, nutrition, health, optimization. But it wasn't always that way. His background was quite |
| 1:13.0 | significantly different prior to him finding his calling, I'd say, as a dubstep DJ. So you're |
| 1:21.6 | going to love this show today. But before we go into that, there's a couple of things I want to make |
| 1:26.9 | mention of. So I'm sure that you would have followed me on my socials for quite a while using a skincare. I never thought that I would be telling you about my skincare routine, but here I am. Visual chemistry skin is something that I've been using for a while. And if people are telling me that I look like I'm in |
| 1:44.5 | my mid-30s, when I'm in fact in my mid-40s, I must be doing something right. There's ingredients in |
| 1:51.1 | there that I absolutely love, such as the plant stem cells, the peptides, the retinol, the antioxidants, |
| 1:58.0 | the lavender, all sorts. And this is something that I use every morning, every night, |
| 2:03.9 | and I use the charcoal mask once a week, yeah, |
| 2:07.3 | about once a week at the moment. |
| 2:08.9 | Anyway, there is going to be a massive special |
| 2:12.9 | coming up on this Black Friday, okay? |
| 2:16.4 | So this will be going live on the 29th of November. Okay. |
| 2:21.8 | There's going to be buy one and get one 50% off of all their products. This is a very first. |
| 2:30.4 | So go to visual chemistry skin.com. Visualchemistry skin.com. I'll put the link in the show notes |
