Summary

For the first time ever, I am being interviewed on my own podcast. I get thousands of people who apply every year to shadow me or intern at my gym "CHALK" here in Orange County. I always say no. However, I finally had someone walk in and introduce themselves that I happen to like and I said yes for once. To give him the best experience possible and in efforts to answer any questions he may have, I had him interview me and ask whatever he wants. I said "nothing is off limits" and he absolutely killed it. Lots of great business stuff, personal stuff, and a bunch of hilarious banter. This show needed to happen for a while. Enjoy!
