0:00.0 | What up, guys, welcome to the Chichitsu podcast episode. It doesn't matter. It's just a random number. |
0:02.1 | But today we're talking about the CGI coming up, CGI 2. For those of you who have been long-time listeners, you know that originally last year when the CGI was getting ready to happen. I was a little skeptical about the whole thing. I don't know. I just, for some reason, I just thought It was, you can go listen if you want to. |
0:54.8 | But nonetheless, as most people also know if you're a long-time listener, I changed my tune. I went to the event. It was an amazing event. And I loved it and was excited to go back this year. And so, you know, me and Eugene got tickets. We're going to it. We're going to be there with my buddy, Eli, and his lady. And, you know, so if you guys are out there, come say, hey. But since we're going there, we're going to kind of talk about it a little bit now. And then, you know, talk about what we see, maybe some of the things that maybe to look for, some of the interesting dynamics that the pit creates with grappling. and then we'll do a follow-up to this after the events over and kind of talk about how everything went. |
0:59.8 | And I'll post some YouTube content as well. |
1:01.7 | And we'll have the Jujitsu podcast content as well. |
1:03.7 | So again, hopefully you guys enjoy this podcast. |
1:05.5 | And again, if you guys are out there, feel free to say, hey, I remember last year, I think think it was one of the guys sent me a message |
1:12.9 | and he said hey man i saw you at the cj i really wanted to come up and say hi and i'm |
1:20.4 | like why didn't you he said i didn't want to bother you like it's fine just come say hey you know |
1:24.9 | again i kind of anticipate that sometimes in those situations, |
1:27.9 | there's going to be a lot of people, and that's completely fine by me. I'll be happy to chat with you for a second. So if you want to say, hey, say hey, big thanks to our sponsors for help and make this podcast happen. Charles Webb, CBD, if you guys have never tried them out, again, I'm a big fan of CBD products, been using them for a long time. I actually do use them. So again, you know, |
1:27.6 | take that for what you will. I, but I encourage people to try them out. Again, I'm a big fan of CBD products, been using them for a long time. I actually do use |
1:44.4 | them. So again, you know, take that for what you will. I, but I encourage people to try them out |
1:48.4 | and use them like you would any supplement test it out for yourself, right? A while ago, my, |
1:55.8 | the people that I use as a company called First Optimal, they put me on a few different |
2:00.6 | supplements and some new |
2:02.4 | medication. One of them is a thyroid medication, right? So my thyroid function's been crap for |
2:07.8 | years. And it's like subclinical. So they give me the thyroid medication. Say, just try it, |
2:12.6 | see what happens. You know, and if you like it, we can mess around with it. We're going to check |
2:17.2 | your blood work later. So I try the thyroid medication, and I mean gain changer, bro. I feel like a different person. And, you know, so I tested it out and tried it. And same thing kind of happens with supplements. I encourage people that when you use a supplement, people react differently to different supplements, different medications, different everything. So you got to kind of trust your experience on it, you know, see what you think. And so with the supplements, they're one of the OGs in the CBD space. They've been around for a long time. They third party test their stuff to ensure the quality, the purity, the potency, the whole deal. And if you guys want to check them out and try out some of their |

And then you can try out the products, whatever you want. One of the favorites for me and Eugene has been the stay sleep gummy, you know, as you get older, as we are getting older, we're in our 40s now. |
2:51.6 | Sleep is just one of those things where you have to do everything you can to improve it, where you're younger, you could go off of very little sleep and you don't seem to be bothered by it when you get older. Bad night of sleep can ruin the rest of your day. So getting a good night sleep's important. Sleep hygiene and routine is really important, but there's little supplements and things that can help. I'm a big fan of magnesium midnight before I go to sleep. And I also really enjoy the stay sleep gummies and CBD just in general before bed. So try it out.
