Chaos and Bang Your Ears 8 (it doesn't matter if it's really 8)

I can't say for certain if this is our best show, but I think it might be our most entertaining show ever.  Almost 2 hours.

  1. Best lesson I could ever took from this: don't worry and have fun lifting. Enjoy the process, and as long as you're getting stronger, never mind the bollocks, because that's all it is, bollocks.

    There's something I read on another website, and I think you guys would really agree with it.

    "You have to get back on the horse. Somehow, and I don't know how this kind of thing starts, we have started to lionize horseback-not-getting-on: these casual, a priori assertions of inevitable failure, which is really nothing more than gauze draped over your own pulsing terror. Every creative act is open war against The Way It Is. What you are saying when you make something is that the world is not sufficient, and what it really needs is more you. And it does, actually; it does. Go look outside. You can't tell me that we are done making the world."

    I've caught myself thinking the same as that guy. I'm in a similar position. Like him, I'm 25, and probably like him, I am disappointed with how my life has turned out so far. I am not where I expected to be in life at 25, that's for damn sure, and sometimes I wonder if I will ever make anything of myself, or if I'll just be a failure my whole life through.

    But then I started to study it a bit, and it came to me that I can do whatever the fuck I want with my life. I am in my prime, and will be for the next ten or fifteen years at least. I am probably the healthiest I have ever been in my life, and only likely to get healthier as I lift more. I am certainly the strongest I have ever been. I have a lot of great friends who care about me. I have some awesome ideas for a book or two. Having been to college once to study my first love, something that came naturally to me, I'm going back to study something that does not come naturally to me, something that is hard, but that promises to be rewarding and fascinating in its own right. In other words, as much as I may think my life sucks right now, I really have it pretty good. My life is full of opportunity, if I bother to look around and grab it, which is exactly what I am going to be doing.

  2. You guys ended up talking about the Fallout games or just nuclear apocalypses in general? Either way is cool, but bonus points are definitely gained if the two of you (or one of you) are Fallout fans.

  3. If you by some miracle get Jason Statham on the podcast, I vote you do it live, that way people can phone in and tell him to fuck off for being so goddamn awesome.

  4. I think the universe would implode from the sheer awesome if Paul, Jamie, and Jason Statham did a podcast together (fingers crossed). On the off chance it does happen, it'd be cool to see some training questions. I.E. when did he start doing Legend Pull Ups, when did he start giving a fuck about fitness, how to survive a bullet to the chest during the Apocalypse while rocking abs, etc.

    Definitely one of the most hilarious episodes you guys have done yet. Thanks for the bullet to the chest advice, as well, I'm guilty of sweating the destination too much.

    1. No particular kind. My wife buys all the groceries so whatever it is she brews up is the cup o' the day.

  6. The part where you guys basically said you have to be more than human in life and transcend humanity or something like that made me think of this question, and I'd love to hear you guys take on this:

    The Achilles dilema:

    Would you rather die peacefully from old age, confortably in your bed and at peace of mind, but knowing nobody except your childreen and grandchildreen would remember who you where and what you did; OR, would you rather die young in "the battlefield", but in such a glorious fashion that people would remember your name for all eternity and you'd live on as a legend forever.

    Also, I think I'd be hilarious to ask this too:


    Would you rather be Batman or Superman ?

    With all moral, physical and everything things related ?

    I'd love to hear Jaime's answer to this because I think he posted something about Superman being a fucking pussy some time ago.

  7. Almost a week into the shake diet, starting to get pretty lean but my strength is dropping a bit. When's this damn apocalypse gonna happen so I can take one in the chest already?

  12. Another great show. Statham rules, but yeah, fuck him. And what the fuck is this shit about an Epic Beard Man movie? They change EBM from a white guy who beats the shit out of arrogant blacks to a Mexican who beats up white skinheads? No, Hollywood doesn't have an agenda, no way...
