| 0:00.0 | This is Entrepreneurs the Playbook, where each week I bring you some of the greatest athletes, |
| 0:05.6 | celebrities, and entrepreneurs to talk about their personal and professional playbook to success. |
| 0:11.8 | Welcome to office hours, I'm David Meltzer and we have a legend you've heard of cold therapy guys |
| 0:17.9 | haven't you? Well the reason you've heard of cold therapy and probably the reason he's taking |
| 0:23.0 | technology to the methodology which the first time I met him you would have never believed this guy |
| 0:29.0 | would have an app someday but millions of people are utilizing the Wim Hof app including me. |
| 0:35.6 | So I've prepared this question because I'd like to ask questions whether it's of |
