What's going on everybody? We're back with the real bodybuilding podcast. I have a special guest for episode 72. Mr. Chris Bumstead. How are you, sir?

I'm good. I'm good. Happy to finally be making on to this podcast. I feel like I was dipping and dying for a little too long.

You were just like, I'm not really into doing long interviews, because I know like this is like an hour
