We were doing home invasion robberies. What's the San Francisco County Jail? I was technically a

North Daniel. Why are the Serrainos an enemy? And as soon as these two white guys come out, we got to rush him.

How does someone even get past the keys to the yard? There's a guy that wasn't clearable. He ended up

getting hit or removed from the yard. Mario Sanchez grew up in San Francisco, surrounded by

struggle and survival.

After high school, he turned a crime committing home invasions that landed him in California's

most dangerous prisons, where he became a Nortennial soldier just to stay alive.

Mario, welcome to Lockton.

Thanks so much for coming on the show today. Ian, thank you for having me. I've been watching you for a while and I appreciate you inviting me out here to the East Coast to check you guys out. Yeah, of course, man. You came for California, right? Yeah, I live in L.A. Originally from San Francisco. But yeah, I've been in LA for about the last 10 years.

So a little colder out here today for you. A little bit colder, yeah. It's a little bit more chilly out here on the East Coast. Best time of year, though, because it's fall. Like, it's not

too hot, not too cold. But the mornings, I think, it was dropped down like 40 this morning. So

you probably had to bundle up. Yeah, it was 80 degrees in L when I left. So a little bit cooler out here. Yeah, I was in Vegas last weekend and it was, it was definitely warmer. It wasn't like the 100 degree hot, but it was still a lot warmer than what it is now. You can't be walking around without a hoodie right now. Yeah, definitely. But yeah, very, very nice to be out here. So thank you for having me. Yeah, of course. Plug everything you got. I know you have a book coming out in January and your

merch that you hooked us up with that we are definitely going to be rocking.

Yeah, thank you. So you can go to my website, www.relentless-mindset.com. You can see my merch there. My book will be out in January. That's also

called Relentless Mindset. And it's really just about my life story about getting in trouble when I was

very young, going away. I was incarcerated for about eight years. And then really getting out of

prison and just changing my life over the last 25 years. I've been in

banking and finance. And so that's what the book's about. And it's just really about changing your

life. Have you linked with Hector Bravo at all? Hector, I, you know what? We talked via like techs.

I was thinking about going down to maybe meet with him as well. But that's someone I'd like to talk to as well. Yeah, he would be great. If he didn't answer you or whatever, I can reach out to him too. I had him on my show here, like almost two years ago now. And he was, I know he worked in some of the higher security prisons in California. Yeah, I actually really like what he's doing with, you know, his platform and how he's talking about all the stuff that goes on in CDC.

So I like that because there's a lot of crap that goes on in the system that people don't know about.

And it's cool to see somebody uncovering all that and putting them on blast.
