| 0:00.0 | What's happening guys? Happy Tuesday! And thank you for joining another special episode |
| 0:12.7 | of your welcome. I'll tell you we had a great week in a fight from San Antonio. Guys, |
| 0:17.0 | did we forget how good Cory Sanhagen is? I know I did. Anyways, coming up on today's |
| 0:22.3 | show, you remember that conspiracy about Islam, Makalchip and the IB? Well, it turns out, |
| 0:28.5 | there's some truth all that. I got that story today plus George Mosvittal is fighting |
| 0:33.9 | next weekend. He just went on Joe Rogan's podcast and made some interesting comments. I'm |
| 0:39.3 | going to get to those things and much more on today's show, but I want to begin here. |
| 0:43.4 | We're on the underground. The kids are saying it's going to be Polo Costa versus Jami. |
| 0:50.9 | You've heard that that's been going on for a while, right? Those guys mid-Band training |

| 1:19.6 | even if you give them a ranking, they're even. I mean, they just are, right? You'll look |
| 1:22.7 | at some rankings. You go, okay, who should I put here? So I put him three or four and |
| 1:25.5 | like, man, these guys are dead even and you go with one. They used to have this in school |
| 1:29.5 | when you ran into that situation. You had to go in alphabetical or I mean, right? Sometimes |
| 1:33.0 | we do understand that. But let's try to break that down. I did a poll on my YouTube page. |
| 1:39.8 | I got well over a hundred thousand people very quick. I mean snap, snap of your fingers. |
| 1:46.2 | And it was overwhelming that you, the audience that participated in this poll want to see |
