0:00.0	This episode is sponsored by Transcend, a veteran-owned and operated performance optimization company
0:05.9	that I introduced recently as a sponsor on this show.
0:09.5	Well, since then, I have actually been using my products, and I have had incredible success.
0:14.4	There was initial blood work that was extremely detailed, and based on that, they offered supplementation.
0:20.6	So I began taking DHEA, BPC 157 for inflammation
0:25.3	based on the fact that I've been a stuntman, a martial artist and a firefighter in my whole life,

1:11.9	the Transcend Foundation, which is putting veterans and first responders through some of their
1:17.2	protocols free of charge. Now, Transcend are also offering you the audience 10% off their protocols,

1:28.8	And if you want to hear more about Transcend and their story, listen to episode 808 with the founder,
1:35.5	Ernie Colling. Or go to transcendcompany.com.
1:41.0	This episode is sponsored by TeamBuilder, yet another company that's doing great things for the first responder community.
