All right. I think we're good. I think actually my cable was a little twisted up there when I
took it off and was showing you. Okay. So anyway, let me finish my story here. I don't know if you
care about the story, but the, I signed up for this course and, and I'm working with, oh, I was
talking about, he had me fake passing out. He was just kind of, kind of main up a little bit.
So I, I signed up for this, this keto course. It's a, it's, you know, I'm convinced that the
combination of all the work I'm doing, learning how to challenge the fear, learning how to manage it,
learning how to enjoy life, learning how to be present, all this stuff I've been doing,
figuring out how to make the business profitable or really profitable. So I don't have to take
so much risk or take some risk off the table and really just work towards, you know, what would
be a euphoric life for me and, and, you know, making, understanding what's going to cause stress,
what is not, and then, and then combining that with a, you know, just being super healthy,
being super active, living in a ketogenic state. I bought a safe for the pantry,
which is actually working great because I would have cheated a bunch of times already.
And so I bought a safe for the, you know, just even for like almonds and cashews and things that I,
you know, eat too much of, peanut butter. And so I got a safe and the kids have it, you know,
Michelle, they're the only ones that have the code. I don't. And so I locked that up.
But I'm doing this, doing this frickin keto thing. And it's with like a group of like regular people,
not, I'm used to dealing with you guys, you know, and even you guys drive me crazy at times,
because I'm so off the frickin reservation of crazy. And so the, I'm used to dealing with,
in surrounding myself with, you know, although I'm the pinnacle of crazy, or, or at close to the
top of crazy, at least the people around me kind of get it, they understand it. And, and so I'm in
this group of normies. And all I hear a bunch of frickin excuses. But the concept is to test ketones,
test glucose, and get into a ketogenic state and staying there. The byproduct for me is that I'm
fasting. I'll do lots of mitochondrial repair. I'll do lots of hopefully gut to brain repair.
And man, who knows that, you know, that could be another contributor combined with all this other
stuff that I'm doing that could help me get back to reality here and make sure I can actually go
to SEMA this year again. And so I think that I'm in, but anyway, so my point of my point of my
story here, I'm in this course, and I'm just holding myself back. Like they, first they can't,
they don't know how to use zoom. And then they're not in focus. And then they're moving the camera
around, like they can't get set up. I can't, I can't do like any, it's just a frickin total disaster.
And, and so the whole darn thing is just a mess. And it's like, we're like, we're like
planning or catering to the least common denominator, which is just annoying as crap.
And so the other day, I got myself in trouble. So I'm on the third session, today would be the
fourth session. And so I got myself in trouble on the second session. We were talking for like
15 minutes in our nightly group about coffee and how, you know, and how to not break a fast.
And we're supposed to be talking about health and wellness and improvement and fitness,
you know, and all this stuff. And we're talking about like, I just, I hate how the
entire world is just decided. And then you start looking for, you know, biases. But this idea that,
you know, caffeine, I'm okay with you accept that it's, but don't frickin lie to me here that,
you know, well, you know, Matt, you don't understand caffeine, blah, blah, blah, blah,
blah, is great. And caffeine is the, is the, you know, it has all these benefits and da,
da, da, da, da. It's nonsense. You're addicted. You come off of it, you get a migraine headache.
And you're, you're, you feel like you're dying. That's an addiction. Why if we normalize that?
So I wasn't even picking a fight. I was just saying, look, we're talking about this,
you guys are struggling to not break a fast, to not break ketosis by putting all this weird
crap in this thing that you're addicted to. Can we just admit that you're addicted? Why don't
we just let that go? You know, why don't you just let it go? And especially in this group,
you know, those of you guys that don't have problems, you're fit, you're healthy, you're fine.
Caffeine has some benefits. Coffee has some benefits, I'm sure. I don't know what, but
it has some benefits. It's an enjoyment thing. It's a quality of life thing. I get all that.
But we're in a group of sick people, me included, and we're making all these excuses. And I just,
you know, I'm just asking, and I ask it much nicer than I'm talking to you about this. And people
look like I had fricking, like I had two heads on. And this is after 25 minutes of fumbling around
trying to get everybody into the darn thing. And then we're in a dire rush to get out of the group.
So, or to get it shut down that night, like, let's just get into it. Let's skip all this bullcrap.
And anyway, the doctor who set this thing up, we have like, everything that we're learning,
we've already learned. Like, she's already taught us that. I want to get into the details here and
have a, it was a support group. So anyway, I'm working on that. And so I'm real fricking
frustrated. And I, so what I did is in order to kind of get, I paid two grand for this thing,
and I'm investing a lot of time in it. So kind of like I did with my car journals,
I started in the thread, I started a journal, I said, well, you know, if we're not going to talk
about the details of what we're doing, what I can do is just start a journal sharing, here's
what I'm doing a workout, here's my key, here's my key tone show. So that way I could kind of
put all the data down and analyze it every day. And then I could share what I'm learning. And then
other people contribute and we can learn from each other, at least that way. And yeah, nope.
They, they, I spent three hours on that last night, and they deleted it. I'm like, I should have
asked first, dang it, that was a waste of my time. So anyway, I sent them a message, look,
here's where I'm at, I feel like I'm on an island here, I'm in with a bunch of regular people
that aren't good at anything. And like, I already, everything we're talking about is so elementary,
we're like teaching to the least common denominator. And the funny thing is, we make all these
concessions about, you know, triggers and all of that. And then every single session is up talking
about your triple bypass and your, which triggers me. And I can't do, I don't can't do anything
about it. That's what triggers me is when people start talking about death and destruction, blood
and guts, you know, they're dying and all these people, their feet are about to get lopped off.
And here I am, I'm trying to, you know, run an 18 minute 5k and get to 11% body fat. And so,
and I'm in with these freaking regular normies. So I'm going to suck it up and, and, and try to
stop. I just told you don't have a judgment, assessment and opinion. And then I think this
is probably good for me to, to go through, because what I want is an accountability to keep the
stuff locked up in the pantry, don't have any cheats and get into like a six, nine, 12 month
long-term state of ketosis, where I'm making ketones, which means that I'm, and my glucose is
stable and I'm convinced that that's going to be a major contributing factor to me driving a car
in the mountains. It'll be pretty sick. Let's see. Nicholas, sorry if you already explained it,
but is your process of fasting 24, 48? So I'm doing a probably 18, four. So I have a roughly four
hour eating window. And then I'll throw in a 48 hour water or 72 hour water or sardine fast.
I'm doing a 72 hour sardine fast for, it's not really a fast, I guess, but I'm doing 72 hours
of just eating sardines. So I'll have a morning and, or afternoon and evening sardine tin.
That will really make, you know, tons of ketones and keep your glucose ultra, ultra low.
That's easier than doing a water fast. So I do a lot of 24s while I eat, you know, one meal a day,
or my eating windows an hour. I do that a lot right now. I haven't eaten anything. I will
probably eat some sardines after this podcast. And then
Sunday, I'm starting a 72 hour sardine fast. And I'd like to throw another 72. I think we have a
72 hour water fast. So that's really why I signed up for the course is to kind of do that with a
sardine fast. Let's see. The Obsess Garage Wrinkle Black Wand Holder looks pretty sweet.
Updates on when the stainless with full loadout will be in stock. I'm not sure. So within weeks.
Let's say using the Griot's Boss Foam Can with an active 2.0. Should I use the Aqua Tip
like I've read or is it worth diluting Car Pro Reset? I'd play with the tip and see what works.
I'm not sure which one. It may be pink that you need for it.
We talked about that. Have you heard of Ibogaine? I have.
But I'm like terrified of a, and this, you know, I was listening to,
and I told you I was listening to earlier. Crap. Tim Ferriss about, you know,
he's done a lot of psychedelic stuff. And, you know, sometimes there's risk to it.
Sometimes you break and you end up in like a disreality forever. So that's what I'm
deathly afraid of. Matt, high fatty red meat on carnivore has tremendous mental health benefits.
Yep, your brain needs cholesterol and fat for optimal health. Yep, I agree. Are you eating
enough fat? Or have you considered doing a fat fast? Yeah, I eat tons of that. I'm eating butter
all the time and I eat a ribeye every, a ribeye or a New York strip every day.
And that's why sardines are so great because it's like the perfect balance of fat in it and
protein. And so I manage that. I'm using a chronometer to track that. And so I'm working on that.
Have you tried KCX multi-star? I have. I don't see the point. I'm not much of an APC guy,
but it's okay. Matt, how's your experience been with the new iPhone? Anything you wish was different
with it? Yeah, it's fine. I mean, it's working great. I think it's fine. Let's see. Deceitful MS
is concentrated GS great pressure wash, pre-wash. Deceitful MS. And the best pre-wash is spill amber.
Ryan from Find Detailings here. They're rising them about his problems with the
eight-year coding. That's funny. It's probably because he didn't install it right.
And joke with them a little bit there. Let's see. Are you willing to take medication? Yeah,
I was talking about that. I have been non-responsive to the medications I've taken,
so we're going to try something a little different. Let's see. Do you think the business
and the chase for perfecting things has made your driving portion worse? Oh, for sure. For sure.
But, you know, I'm trying to figure that out. It certainly made everything worse. The pressure,
the risk, the inconsistency, it's the same thing with eating and risk taking. It's like,
all right, tomorrow will be day one. All right, tomorrow I won't take the risk.
And so there's some bad behavior there that's caused me to freaking lose my crap.
And let's see.
Matt, you're doing what you need to do for yourself. You're like me. I always try to take
control. Very hard to go with a program. When I do, I've seen great outcomes. Yeah,
so I've got to figure out a way. And I've been floundering around trying to,
I'm doing this course for a specific purpose and I'm trying to figure out how to navigate it.
Matt, let's see. You mentioned a new bucket filler coming soon. How much of a weight
should it be? We're hoping to have it, if the ultimate is still better, I think,
than the one we're going to do. This is more of sort of a mid-tier replacement. So if the
ultimate is what I'm going to keep. But the one we're doing is, crap, what's the brand? I forgot
it last week too. But we're hoping to have it by spring, so in a month.
Let's see. When's the next wash and talk? I'm going to do a golf cart, a promise,
I'm going to do a golf cart wash this weekend. So anyway, that's the end of the questions.
That's what I had for today. I'm going to go finish the wheels on the GT4 RS, the wheels and
calipers. I want to finish that. I got to run to the gym and back. So I'm going to run,
I'm going to do chest and trice today. Oh, the gym. So my CrossFit gym closed on Monday,
so did our official last workout. There's no CrossFit gyms around here. I
have joined a regular globo gym, Genesis, and Chris, head of design, and I are working out
together, which is great. I think that, I don't know, I've had good days and bad days. Yesterday,
we were doing leg extensions and leg curls. I'm going to go, oh my gosh, this is going to ruin my
whole freaking life here. I'm going to lose all, whatever a little bit of athletic ability I have
left in this nonsense crap and just have big muscles, which I don't give a crap about. I just
want to get, I just want to be fit. So right now, my structure is, I haven't done it because it's been
so freaking cold, but my structure would be, I'm coming to HQ at nine every day now, where I was
going to CrossFit at 830. So I was getting here at like 11 and just staying late. And so what I'm
doing, the gym is two miles from here, so I can freaking walk there or ride with Chris over there
till I can drive myself there hopefully soon. But the intention, plus I'm getting into solid
ketosis here, so I'm hurting right now, energy-wise. So I'm running five days a week, rocking two days
a week on my off days. And then I want to do that in the morning. So wake up, run, rock,
sonic, cold punch, come to HQ. So get up at 6.45, do that. But it's been freaking 28 degrees in
the morning. I don't want to do it. And so I'll probably start next week. So run, rock,
cosonic, cold punch, come here, work here at HQ, do my thing. And then I'm going at six o'clock
to the regular global gym and doing my weight training and doing that. And then I'm going home.
And the problem is my eating structure. I'd like to eat before then. But so I'm trying to figure
out my structure, my scheduling, and I need to throw in some functional stuff. So I do have
a rower now. I got an air bike. I've got a box. I'm going to build a little lifting platform for
deadlifts and cleans. I won't drop the weight, but I want something with a little padding.
And so I'm going to kind of do a hybrid combination of building my own programming.
Right now, I've got a decent structure where I'm not falling apart. But I'm figuring it out.
I'm figuring it out. I'm figuring out what to do here. The advantage of going to regular
gyms, I'm not going to be hurt all the time, injured because there's absolutely no athletic
movements going on there. So it certainly is safer on your joints and stuff. But I want to be able
to walk out the door and run a half marathon right now, any day, any time. I want to be able to maintain
that. Let's see. Have you tried the new Griot's MOD brushes? I have them. They're pretty sweet.
I think they're going to be, but there's still more that hasn't come out yet.
So yeah, I stopped CrossFit because my CrossFit gym closed and there isn't one around.
So I've toyed with the idea of opening my own gym again, but I learned that lesson, I think.
So I think I'm going to avoid that. Matt, will you eventually write a book? Yes, I think I will.
Any chances of black pressure washer and garden hoses for OG? Probably not.
Then no one makes a good black hose. So maybe someday, but not anytime soon.
Ever shoot hoops to unwind? I play basketball and I love driving to the court to shoot hoops every
other morning. No. I mean, there's basketball court right across the street there.
Yeah, I mean, maybe. I thought about a great thing. I used to do this where you just run
the full court and just do a layup drill, but full court by yourself and just do that until
you drop. That's a great workout. What do you think about the LG 6K monitor compared to the
Apple Studio monitor? Mac Mini just doesn't seem to love 4K monitors. So I was wondering how the
6K or 5K was working for you. It's good. It's okay. I mean, I wouldn't recommend it.
I think that the 27-inch studio monitor is better. It's got a camera. I feel like it's
not as the color. There's more contrast and vibrance to it. It also doesn't do well with
routing. So what I like to do is run power to the monitor, have a single USB-C that plugs
into my laptop, and then plug my USB-C for my DAC and other devices into that. But the monitor
kind of times everything out and I have to plug it directly into my laptop, which I don't like.
So anyway, I think that's it for you guys. I'm excited for new drugs. Hopefully I can
fix my life here. Anyway, oh, Middleton Motor Show. Go to the OG Facebook group, sign up. I think
it's worth a trip. I want you to come to the Middleton Motor Show. Things will be freaking awesome.
We want 100 cool cars to line Main Street, and I think this could be a really awesome event.
So let's get you signed up. Anyway, I'll put the episode up on Apple Podcast and all that this
weekend, and I'll see you soon. I didn't shoot a hex vlog this week. Like I said, shoot me some
ideas. What do you want me to talk about inside the hex? I'll shoot a hex cast this weekend for you.
Talk soon. Thanks.
