fight the force of average and excel in every area of your life. We're glad that you're here.

So like 2017 I guess was the year I got invited to go to this Joe Rogan stand-up comedy thing.

Joe Rogan typically comes in town the night before the UFC,

so I'm going to go to this Joe Rogan stand up and my buddy Mike Reese calls me.

He says, hey, I've got a friend.

You have an extra ticket, right?

He actually said, you have your wife's ticket, right?

And I said, yeah, and he goes, man,

you need to convince your wife not to go and make it a guys night.

I need your ticket.

I got a friend that I met running a marathon I think you need to meet him and I was like okay my friend Mike he says he was the only other black guy running the marathon Mike my friend is friend is black, right? And so he found another

guy that looks similar to him running a marathon, which according to him is a very

rare thing. So he got all excited, made friends with the guy, the guy happens to be in town, he wants to go to Joe Rogan with us.

Cool. I talked my wife out of going and said, hey, it's going to be a guy's night. Sorry, you got to run an audible.

One of the few times that I've done that in my life but we go pick this

gentleman up that was running the marathon with my friend Mike and he is at

ranger stadium and he's been training the bullpen and he gets in the car and I'm like oh shit dude this this guy seems very serious the car just got eerily quiet for a second

the guy turns around he starts to introduce himself to everybody.

My name's David Goggins.
