0:00.0	Welcome to Spartan Up Podcast, Joe Descenta, CEO and founder of Spartan.
0:04.7	We are trying something new today. We are doing questions and answers because you've been
0:07.9	hitting me up at Real Joe Descent on Instagram. You've been posting comments on YouTube. You've been sending me emails and they're good questions.
0:15.0	Now let's face it. At the end of the day we're trying to learn more here. We're trying to teach you more.
0:19.0	So check this out. I've got a phone number where you could do voice text, you could text me,
0:23.6	917 924 3002, 917 924 3002, and if the questions are good,
0:31.4	you're going to be famous.
0:33.4	But here's a question I got for you.
0:34.4	One final question before we get into this episode.
0:37.0	Why do we do this?
0:38.4	Why do we interview all these people with grit and resilience
0:41.1	and try to dive in and learn how they became better? and well boom you get punched in the face you got the coronavirus that shows up right the

1:04.8	hard times and we can get a nugget for our own lives
1:08.0	it's gonna be better we're gonna be faster we're gonna be stronger that's why we
1:11.2	do this stay tuned watch this episode and send in some questions.
1:15.0	All right, you guys got a lot of questions. First question is, how do I get my kids to listen to me? I get somebody else to tell them.
1:26.7	Kids, I think it becomes white noise with parents right? If you're constantly asking them to stay away from the stove or wake
1:36.5	up early or get off the devices, it just becomes white noise. It happens to adults too. It happens to all
1:41.3	of us. You just get tired of hearing that same voice over and over. So what I found is, look, it takes a village and so you get other people in the village to jump in and help out and it works it works because when other people tell your
1:56.8	kids something they listen you can change something you know I don't know I don't
