| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the A-Game Podcast with Nick Lemanya, digging into the minds and experiences |
| 0:19.3 | of some of today's brightest entrepreneurs in real estate and business, along with Hollywood |
| 0:24.4 | stars, UFC fighters and your favorite rock fans. People that have figured out how to overcome obstacles, |
| 0:31.1 | take chances, live boldly, and no matter what they do, they always bring their A-Game. |
| 0:47.2 | All right, happy Christmas Eve or happy Friday to anybody who's not celebrating that. |
| 0:52.7 | We have number five of 10 to round out 2021 with the A-Game Podcast. Today's episode is a little |
| 0:59.0 | different. We've been doing mostly business people entertainment stuff. Today we have a little |

| 1:40.0 | fun, but also having that balance with really keeping the fundamentals in there and looking for |

| 1:51.1 | look at on Instagram when he just posts and butts and things like that, he really does go deep and |
| 1:56.0 | he's a very genuine and deep and sincere person and you could tell he's very intelligent and he's |

| 2:05.5 | had and just big fan of the guy before and even bigger fan of the guy after. I think if you're in |
| 2:10.2 | business, if you're in personal development and definitely if you're into jiu-jitsu on some level, |
| 2:15.2 | this is a great episode to listen to just for the principles of figuring out how to constantly |
