Summary

The fellas hopped on a flight down to the big, bad, bitchin' state of Texas for the annual South By South West festival to have a conversation with Andrew Palmer, professional strongman, director of engineering of Distiller and Leukemia survivor! He's 3x the size of Jeremie. He eats 10,000 calories a day. He pushes dump trucks down the street for fun and he's kicking the living sh*t out of cancer. From painful burps, to blood blasting out of your nose, to mega casual doctors, to accepting death, the boys take a deep dive into the world of Leukemia, cancer and hulking out. The SXSW experience has been an unforgettable ride! If you dig this weeks episode be sure to share it via social media and tag @sxsw when you do! Thank you everyone for your support and love over the last couple of years. None of this would be possible without your support!
