Today's guest, this is his second time being here.
He is an undefeated UFC featherweight from Searcy, Arkansas.
They call him Thug Nasty.
He's got a lot going on.
It's not just MMA anymore for this guy, but that's his main focus.
Happy to spend some time today with my friend, Mr. Bryce Mitchell.
I need to set that parking brake and let myself unwind.
Shine that light on me.
I'll sit and tell you my stories.
Shine on me.
And I will find a song I've been singing.
Yeah, I will just go.
And I'll be moving.
Yeah, man.
That 269 card.
It was wild.
Who'd they have in your division that fought?
They had Egy and Josh Emmett.
And Josh Emmett.
Yep.
Yeah.
And what does it feel like when you're watching that, dude?
Because you've been out for what, almost a year now, huh?
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
Well, shit, actually, that fight, I missed it.
I watched that last night in the hotel.
I took half a bag of these fucking gummies.
I was falling asleep, bro.
Were you?
Actually, when last night?
Podcast is live?
Oh, no, not live.
Are we recording?
We're recording, yeah, yeah.
Okay, I got the goodies, bro.
Oh, you got the seed rocks?
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, damn, boy, that swamp Santa right here, son.
Come on, son.
That Spanish mall Santa right here, baby.
Let's go.
Damn, is that really?
Ain't no alcoholic beverages, nothing.
You know, I just, you know, I know we're going to get thirsty up here.
Hey, man.
High quality H2O, electrolytes, you know.
Yeah, boy.
And some homemade lemonade.
And I got you some ear jerky in here.
Ooh.
This stuff's dry than nothing, bro.
Is it?
Dang, because I've been wanting protein for breakfast, man.
Like I said, that's going to be real dry, but I do that on purpose because it's going to store for like years.
It'll probably be good for three years.
Oh, my God.
Apocalypse, bro.
That ear jerky would get you.
Come on, baby.
Got you some of that Jocko baby.
Oh, that mulk, son.
That shit'll make your dick bigger.
Oh, damn.
My dick's pretty big.
I had on glasses.
One of the things.
Bro, so this is homemade jerky right here?
Yes, sir.
That's deer jerky.
Wow.
And so what's the process you have on this?
I shot that one with my bow, and then shoot just dried.
I dried the fuck out of that, brother.
That's like, it's going to stay for years.
And I know a lot of people like it a little bit more moist, but the thing is, I have problems with it going bad.
Really?
I put a lot of salt, a lot of pepper, and I dry.
I mean, it's dry, dry.
But when you start chewing it, it'll come back to life.
You could actually.
It bounces back quick.
It bounces back quick once you start chewing it.
I actually think you could take that, put it in a little pot of boiling water.
I wouldn't do this unless if I was just mixing it up because I got bored.
But you could put that in water.
They call it reconstituting it.
Kind of get it kind of back to life and then put it over some rice.
You know, so that's if you wanted to.
Or you could have put rice in your mouth while you're eating it.
Damn right.
And a little bit of that lemonade.
Yeah.
Dude, thank you, bro.
Thank you for having me, brother.
And this is from my sponsors, Bigly.
They got you, this is those gummies I was talking about.
I'm not kidding you.
It says take one of them.
I took half the bag.
It ain't going to kill you.
Right.
But, bro, I got sleepy.
I was watching that Emmett fight and that EJ fight, and I was like watching it.
And then round three comes around, and I'm like, what the fuck?
Waking back up.
And then, you know.
And what's in them?
Is it THC in them?
This is CBD.
Oh, wow.
Maybe even some Delta 8. I stopped even reading the shit.
I just take them.
You just get them in you, huh?
Then they got some vape pens and then a little bit more of those.
But those vape pens, I'm actually not smart enough to smoke them.
Really?
I tried on the way here.
I was going to smoke one.
I think you have to have a...
Some shit like that.
I don't know if it's an activated passcode or something, but I think you plug it into a phone charger.
Damn, boy.
You plug that bitch in and then you smoke it.
Some Arkansas treats, huh?
This is the best gift of all.
Okay.
In my opinion, this is from me.
Okay.
And I hope that you're not offended.
I won't be.
I can already tell, I think.
Ooh, what's that little turtle bowl?
That's right.
I know you stopped smoking.
Oh, gang, baby, I sure did.
I use them in that straight, though.
Wow.
But I know you're creative.
You're going to find something to use.
Oh, I'm going to stack a little bit of my deer jerky in this bag.
You ever heard two turtles fucking?
Uh-uh.
Hey, let me show you what it sounds like.
Alright.
Oh, that's good, huh?
They don't speed it up for nothing.
Oh, wow, yeah, yeah.
And why should they, bro?
I think it's a good creative.
Dude, thank you, man.
Thank you for having me, brother.
Heck yeah, boy.
We got that rural Santa in the vicinity today, baby.
That Bryce, that boss sauce right here, son.
Damn.
That lemonade's strong, too.
Yeah, it is, huh?
My God.
Oh, yeah.
But, man, I thought that the fight was good.
Yeah.
They both kind of hurt.
I mean, they're just so evenly matched.
One of the judges had it 30-27.
In my mind, it was pretty, like, really, it was a draw, to be honest with you.
Because Egay got dropped in the first round, but then I thought he won the last two rounds.
Shame.
So I honestly would give him a draw.
Yeah.
When you're watching guys like that fight, do you start to feel, because you've been out now for, what, a year now because of your injury?
Over, yeah.
Over a year.
About a year and probably, what, two months?
Is it hard to still see yourself as part of the show?
Kind of?
Do you start to think, like, man, I'm not.
Does it start to feel a little bit separate?
Because you were on a kind of a roll there, you know?
Shoot, I wish.
I mean, dude, like, it's intense in my head, bro.
Like, I'm battling every day.
I'm fighting somebody in my fucking head, bro.
Like, I'm not going to lie.
Like, I feel like I'm always on edge.
I probably need to chill out.
You know what I'm saying?
Right.
So what, so, so let's talk about the rest of that night, those fights, man.
First things first, I got to say that I called the Penya win.
Did you really?
And yeah, first off, I think she's cute.
You know, I think she's pretty cute, so I'm going to go for her.
Oh, yeah, boy.
Second off, you know, I like both of those chicks, though.
It wasn't because of the personalities or anything that I picked Penya.
I picked Pena because she had beat, I believe, Kat Zangano.
And Kat Zangano beat Amanda.
And she didn't, it wasn't a fluke win.
When Kat Zangano beat Amanda, it was domination of wrestling and superior groundwork.
And so you get one ground fighter who's already beat this chick, and then somebody comes and beats the chick who beat her at what she beat her at.
And so in my head, I'm thinking...
She's going to get her to the ground and beat her.
And I didn't put no money on it, though, because I always fucking lose if I put money down.
I don't ever do it.
Actually, I never even put money down.
One time I put a weed bet.
I bet my buddy a quarter of weed on a fight and then lost it.
And then he's all stone and you're not.
That's right, bro.
Well, he shared it with me a little bit.
That's so good.
But the worst is when you lose a weed bet and your buddy just smokes it all and you got to just sit there and look at his ass like he's just been like he's just been eating ghosts, bro.
My dude, my buddy gets so fucked up when we were younger, bro.
He looked like he'd eat a couple damn human.
A couple damn ghosts was in him, bro.
He looked fucking haunted, dude.
He got so high one time his fucking dad came to pick him up and he didn't even know his dad, bro.
And he fucking fought him right there in the yard.
And he fought him, bro.
Like it was somebody coming to kidnap him.
I'd do that right now.
See that motherfucker.
But dude, fighting your own dad just because you high?
Like you so high you high?
I fight him because I'm pissed off.
I don't care if I'm high or what the fuck, dude.
I just beat his ass just for some child support.
Let's go, son.
Yeah, they should have, if a dad flakes on the kid, they should have at least a couple rounds when the child's 16 or over that they got to do in the yard.
Legally.
Yeah.
That's right.
That's what I'm saying.
That should be part of the jurisdiction, baby.
Let's go.
Dude, we got to rewrite some of these laws, man.
Absolutely.
They got some soft laws out there.
Let's go through the last minute of this.
I'll say this, man.
So I'm sitting over there, and man, Nunes just looked so much bigger.
Here's the thing, though, brother.
You guys do no audio.
It don't always come to your favor when you're bigger like that.
It means you cut more weight, and she's a power puncher.
So it's like, okay, so you're talking about a power puncher who cuts a lot of weight.
Yeah, I bet she's going to be great in the first round.
Right.
She's a power puncher who cuts a lot of weight.
She's finding somebody 10, 15 pounds smaller, and she hits twice as hard.
Now, what do you think when you start to see this happening?
What would you have done different here if you're Nunes?
Okay, I'm Nunes.
First off, round one.
That's where she made the mistake.
She come out like she's going to knock her out in the first round, throwing the power punches.
She should have barely won round one.
And I'm serious.
I mean, she should have gone out there saying, I'm not going to knock this girl out.
I'm going to barely win round one.
And then I'm going to win round two a little bit better.
And I'm going to win round three a little bit better.
About round four and five, I don't even give a fuck.
I already won the fight.
I'm just going to do what I can do now.
You know what I'm saying?
But I think that she went in there.
She blasted all of her cannons right off the initial exchange.
Because you're so used to that, you think?
Absolutely.
When it works so long, you know what I'm saying?
It works.
You know, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
But then she ran into a different stylistic matchup.
Here's the thing about when she fought Rousey.
Rousey's a great ground fighter.
In my opinion, Rousey is probably the best woman ground fighter that there is out there.
Actually, if Rousey and Penya get into it in a ground fight, well, first off, that'd be sexy.
Second off, second off.
I'd be second row.
I ain't sitting in the front row because I'm going to want to spend some time on myself.
You know what I'm saying?
I want a little camouflage.
Well, second off, I think that Rousey will probably win eventually because of the submissions.
Against Pena?
Against Penya.
But here's the thing.
Rousey could not get Amanda to the ground.
You know what I'm saying?
She has that straight up kind of grab him and clinch style.
Penya has a style where it's like shoot under and grab the legs, which works amazing if you're talking about a power puncher.
Right.
Because a power puncher, when you swing, you open up all the openings for that.
Like when I'm fighting a power puncher, I'm not thinking, oh, I hope he don't swing hard.
I'm thinking, I hope he swings as hard as he fucking can.
I'm going to shoot.
I'm going to get them legs.
Now, if you're Ronda Rousey, you don't go for the legs.
She don't do singles and doubles.
She has to go against her opponent in a straight line.
That's where she fucked up with Amanda Nunes, bro.
She tried to just close that distance without any type of entangling of the hands, no distractions, no nothing.
She didn't reach the hands.
She just tried to go straight at her.
Just like a train.
But if you would have seen Rousey get Amanda to the ground, you probably would have seen even more disparity.
Just like the disparity was on the feet, it'd have been the same on the ground.
She just never had the she don't go for those legs, you know.
And Amanda, she opens up and throws those big punches.
That's when the legs are open.
And do you think that's kind of what she saw?
Because will you play that back again?
Right.
Pin your Lerder into...
She took some of her best shots, lured her in, landed just enough to piss her off and make her want to hit her more, and that's when she got in on that takedown.
I'm pretty sure she shot a double leg.
I can't remember, though.
Did she shoot a double?
I mean, she's staying in.
I could have sworn she got her to the.
And you could tell Hanuna is like, how is this not working?
Right.
And you just stayed right in there.
Just take.
I mean, you could see Nuna's like, what is this hitting?
Right.
And you're absolutely right.
She just stayed right in there.
Now she's advancing forward.
Right.
So now she's got a game plan on.
And gets her to the fence.
Here comes a double.
If I'm her, I'm shooting.
You'd already shot.
I might have, but she was landing there, too.
I just, I'm curious how she got her down.
I'm almost certain she got her legs.
Oh, she tripped her.
Okay, there you go.
And Nunes is cooked here.
Yeah, but this ain't her game plan.
I mean, think about it.
It's probably been five years at least since she's been in that position in a fight, bro.
At least five years.
When she choked, it wasn't a choke, right?
It was a neck.
What was the...
Go back to that last few seconds, Sarah.
It was probably a choke as well, but if it wasn't on the throat, you could still choke somebody right here on the face and the nose.
Yeah, where does she have her?
You can't really.
Maybe she is under there.
Man.
Bro, it looked like she was up on her nose and her mouth.
And then it looked like she was on the neck to me either.
And that was shock.
Yeah, I got a buddy back home.
He's actually a 25-er, but there's something about the way that, like, you know how ants, they can lift like 10 times their own body weight or something?
Yeah, yeah, I never seen it, but they say it all the time.
I guess there's videos of it probably.
Yeah, bro.
Little dudes are like that too.
Like, you get a little 125 or he can squeeze almost damn near as hard.
Actually, in certain positions, a 125er can squeeze as hard as a 150-pounder because of, like, the compactness of the muscles.
I got a 125-pound buddy, bro.
He does a face crush.
He don't even go for the neck.
He gets his arm and nose around your face and your mouth.
And, bro, yeah, you can't fucking breathe.
And it's actually, let me tell you why it's worse than a rear-naked choke.
Because a rear-naked choke, bro, you're kind of just going to like, it's not the most pleasant choke because you actually can't breathe.
There's some chokes you can breathe like an arm triangle, bro.
I've been put to sleep in them bitches.
And one time I got put to sleep in like an arm triangle, bro.
I didn't even know.
Damn.
I woke up.
I thought I escaped.
Bro, after the round, the guy was like, bro, you were out.
I was like, no way.
I thought I got out of that.
He said, not only were you out, you were twitching for like 30 seconds.
I was like, man, I thought I was dizzy or something.
Somebody likes to dance and it's unconscious, baby.
Damn.
But, you know, that's a pleasant choke.
You're cutting off both sides of the blood.
You could be in it and then just, boom, wake up and not even know you're out sometimes.
That rear naked choke, bro, you're going to cut off your air supply.
You're breathing.
Oh, dude, it's miserable.
And so the one you're talking about, your buddy, though, what is that one like?
You can't breathe in.
So you're getting that effect of like you can't actually get air in like your face or to my lungs.
It's over your face and it crushes the fuck out of your jaw.
It feels like your teeth are about to get just literally just fucking just all, you know, jacked.
So is that a new thing?
It's like his own thing?
It's his own thing.
It's like, you know, but you probably got to have a wide, I mean, you got to have a wide, a girth of.
You got to be strong as fuck, like, just compact, man.
And I mean, I'm not saying I can't do it, but it's like, okay, we'll put it this way: I'm better suited for twisters.
You know, I got my bowlegs and all that shit.
Like, I've got my things that I do.
You got your own things.
Yeah, you can't do it all.
That ain't my fucking thing, bro.
I'm saying that is his thing.
Yeah.
You might evolve and then doing something else that's jerky.
But these motherfuckers, they can make lemonade, bro.
They can put them lemons right there and just squeeze it.
That's old-fashioned.
That's that Russian.
That's how the Russians do it.
When you look at...
Dude.
I'll spice it up a little bit next time.
I'll do some chili pepper, a little cumin, you know what I'm saying?
Spice is a little bit low, but.
It's low.
It's good.
It's plain.
You know what I'm saying?
It's a very comfortable eat.
That's right.
That's right.
This is a comfortable eat, bro.
It's like holding a damn baby in your mouth.
Yes, sir.
Like holding a damn little venison baby, son.
Absolutely.
My first boat kill.
Was it?
It was.
So what do you, I know you've been doing a ton to kill your time.
I want to talk about the fights a little bit more, man.
Yeah, it was, what's the thing that you've kind of missed the most?
I mean, obviously the fighting, but do you feel like this time, because as a fighter, you only have so much time, really.
You know, when you look at the breadth of these guys' career, they get to third.
Some guys, you have the, you know, anime, an animaly, like Glover Tesher or whatever, but a lot of guys, it's probably 32, 34. Yeah, so inspiring.
Yeah.
God.
Great.
And it's very nice.
Oh, you met him?
Yeah, it was a World Series of fighting, and this is before, you know, he's the champ.
This is like probably five years ago.
And, bro, he's like all bite, no bark.
Wow.
Like, bro, he just literally sits there so chill.
So, I mean, just very soft-spoken.
It's a fucking killer, bro.
That's crazy.
I mean, there's not too many people at what, 44, maybe something like that, you know, getting that championship belt.
No.
I mean, there's something inside of that guy.
You know what I'm saying?
Something special.
Yeah, he might be the oldest champ ever.
Yeah, I think so.
If he's not, that shit don't count because it's like way back in the day.
You know, Tank Abbott type of shit.
Yeah, it wasn't even real.
Yeah, it's like a homemade belt.
That's right.
Dude, what?
But Tank Abbott's a bad motherfucker, too, but it's just two completely different playing fields.
You know what I'm saying?
Tank Abbott was fighting other barfighters his age.
Bring up a Tank Abbott.
You know, a little bit half drunk.
You know what I'm saying?
Tasher is going in there fighting dudes half his age who he's had twice as many fights as.
He's been knocked out a couple times, and he don't give a fuck.
He just comes back, and, you know, so that's, he's, he's legit, man.
He's taking so many hits, man.
Some of the fights I saw, I saw Anthony Smith the other night, and that was crazy, that fight that they, I mean, I just can't even believe watching some of these guys, the histories that they've had.
When you watch the Pore El Overa, what else do you think of the card?
What else did you think of the card?
Well, you know, I got there a little bit late.
I showed up right when Sean O'Malley was fighting.
That's when you started watching?
Yeah, Sean O'Malley fight.
Do you go to the fights?
No, I've never been to one of the live ones.
Yeah.
This one was actually at a T bar.
Oh, you were?
Yeah.
Oh, damn.
What's it called?
It was called the Peppermint Hippo.
Look, sometimes you got to give a big girl a mint.
You know what I'm saying?
The screws are up.
I'm going to need it.
Blue Chew, baby.
I'm hopped up on this deer jerky dang.
And if you want your wiener to do well and you don't have a sack of this on hand, I know what'll help.
True Blue.
Sorry, Blue True.
Blue Chew.

No, I ain't even into T-bars, but my buddy TJ Brown, he kind of was doing like a hosting of a party down there.
Oh, yeah.
I'm cool with TJ, so I showed up, and I just wanted to watch the fights.
And Buffalo Wild Wings ain't even got no food that's like real good.
I thought there might be food at T-Bar.
There wasn't, but there's titties.
Damn, that's it.
Food for your heart, bro.
Food for your libido.
Bro, I ain't been to one of them in, I mean, so long, bro.
I never went to that.
That is my scene, you know what I'm saying?
But there's fights and all that.
Yeah, I got family members that have danced, bro.
And like the one in our town where the girls would learn that, like the local strip club, it had the ceiling was low in there and the stage was kind of high.
So they would have to like go up on stage and duck down, dude.
They were like ducking and stripping, bro.
Hey, this is twerk heavy.
Everything was a twerk in there.
Bro, this was actually the best strip club I've ever been to.
Really?
And there's the exact opposite layout, bro.
The ceilings was way up, and these girls was acting like the higher they went up, the more they got paid.
I ain't kidding.
There's a girl hanging by the rafters.
I ain't playing.
She got up there, hung by the rafters, and then she's doing some 360 spin shit on the way down.
And I thought fell out, bro.
I thought she dropped on accident.
She does a trick where she lets go, and then right before the last second, she catches on the pole.
I thought she was dead.
Damn.
Yeah, I was going to do CPRs.
Damn, yeah, I bet you was, dude.
Like, hey, it's the wrong lips, bud.
Wrong lips, you creep.
Desperate time calls for desperate measures.
Yeah.
Hey, buddy.
My lungs are up here.
Riley, how we look on these cameras.
Is everything okay?
Are all our cameras okay?
Everything looks good.
Okay, cool.
Yeah, what'd you think of the finale there with Olivera and Poirier?
So, you know, that's a great fight.
It just, it looked to me like Olivera had more weapons in his arsenal, and that's what it came down to.
You know, like, here was a telling sign for me, too, during a fight when Oliveira got that first takedown.
Here's the difference, okay?
If Oliveira gets dropped, what does DP do?
Tries to knock him out.
No, he lets him up, didn't he?
Let me think.
I swear he let him up.
Yeah, maybe he let him up.
And it's just like he is a lot better at the boxing, but this is in Poyer's mind.
He's thinking, I'm going to knock this guy out with boxing.
Yeah, I think that's his natural first thought.
It's his natural first thought is I'm going to let him up and box with him and knock him out some more.
I'm going to drop him again.
Now, this is what Coach Bryce says, and Coach Bryce ain't shit on Poyer.
Poyer, come over here and beat my ass right now.
And actually, I want to train with him.
I'm not saying, but looking back at a fight, you can look back at all my losses and say, hey, you should have could have.
And I'll say, yeah, you're right.
I should have.
Right.
Yeah, it's easy for us to sit here and say anything.
It's so fucking easy.
But if, say, we redo it and I'm wanting DP, my dude, to win.
Right.
And I'm DP's coach and say if I say it, he does it.
I say, when you drop him, get in his guard.
Grind out that first round.
Maybe you're not going to finish him probably unless you hurt him real bad because Charles got that guard.
But do not ever be scared to engage on the ground with an opponent.
That fear will manifest itself.
I promise you.
And it's not saying he's not afraid of Charles Oliveira's ground game.
That's not what I'm saying.
But it's more like too much respect.
It's like, bro, you're Dustin Poyer and he's fucking rocked.
You get on him and you just keep fucking just whale down punches.
And if I was his coach, I would tell him, I don't give a fuck how good his guard is.
You get in there and you fuck him up.
His guard ain't going to be that good.
You know what I'm saying?
And so.
Yeah, I could see it being a level of like respect thing.
It was a level of respect is all the way.
Yeah, he just has this like he has this mutual kind of thing.
Yeah.
And like I said, he wanted to knock him out with the boxing.
But if I was coaching, I'd be Dustin, go in there, getting his guard.
You know, keep him down and just win the rest of that round, conserve a little bit of your energy.
Right.
Then second round, I believe that Oliver gets DP down.
Yeah, that's when Olivera got him down and was throwing those elbows.
They weren't laying in like Oh, they hurt, yeah, bro.
When they hit you in the teeth, you could feel it because they were landing right here and here.
And, you know, those elbows hurt, you know.
But he had a body triangle walked around his body.
And you can do that every now and then, you know, because to kind of recover or anything.
But I think he held that body triangle.
He's actually holding himself in that position.
Oh, Dustin was the whole time.
Damn right.
So it's having to gas him out.
Well, Dustin was kind of holding him, trying to keep his body close to him, I think, so he didn't have that distance to attack.
Because he didn't want his back to get taken.
And so I would tell him, I'd say, Dustin, open that body triangle.
You cannot, how can you stand up on your feet if they're locked around your opponent?
I'd say, Dustin, you've got to knock this guy out, or you've got to at least bust him up.
You got to open your legs up And you got to fight to get up Putting his feet on the ground, planting them and getting up.
Oh, getting back up.
Now, the risk there is that Olivera circles to his back or grabs a headlock.
But here's the thing.
Would you rather the dude choke you out with the rear naked choke or get you in a guillotine on the way up?
Or would you rather sit and lose that round by round by round with that body triangle?
And, you know, I've done a lot of bad things in a fight, but I think when he looks back at it, he'll say, you know what?
I'm not going to do that body triangle anymore.
I'm going to get back to my feet if my opponent gets me down because he was kind of keeping himself there in that position.
But it all came, all those things you saw was the manifestation of the over-respect that he gave to Olivera.
And I say, it's one thing to say, okay, Oliveira's good on the ground, and I don't want to go to ground with him.
It's another to say, he's so good on the ground, I'm not going to open up my guard.
I'm going to hold him on top of me.
No, you can't be giving him that much respect.
Fuck that.
Yeah, I think Dustinus loves fighting.
So like the actual people.
He likes to get.
I think that's his thing.
Well, he's one of the best in the fucking world at that point.
Here's the thing.
You get a matchup like McGregor.
So if I was good at it, I would do it.
If I'm good with a dagger, I ain't going to tickle somebody.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's like, just because it's like, it's not the same thing.
Well, you know, there's matchups like for Poyer that I just think he'll win every one of them.
Like the perfect matchup for him is Connor McGregor.
Yeah.
A guy who power punches doesn't do as good in the later rounds.
He does better in the first rounds, whereas DP does better in the later rounds.
So you get a DP and a Conor McGregor matchup.
There's not a time in the fight where Dustin has to worry about getting taken down, getting choked.
He's in his element, and you're going to see him Fully unleashed, but you put him up against a Charles Rivera, Olivera, and you're going to see in some positions more timidity because of that respect for the ground game.
And I don't think, and this is my honest assessment of Dustin's ground game.
I don't think the disparity is as big as it is in his head.
I think he was a little bit too worried about Olivera's ground game.
Like I said, when he dropped him, I'm pouncing.
Yeah, I don't know.
I didn't talk to him enough about the actual fighting and stuff before about what his mindset was.
He's good on the ground, man.
I think he was just expecting the third round, it would get back up to the feet.
The feet, yeah.
And that's where it would kind of stay.
And so he'd have a, you know, and then it just, it just, and I think also, I think Dustin was most bummed.
Well, this, this, I got to say this, my last loss, guy took me down, and I got choked out trying to get up.
You know what I'm saying?
So I've been on the other end of it.
So it's just, you know, it's easy to sit here and say, oh, you could have, should have, would have, but my last fight, bro, I wish that I would have got up safer.
I don't, if anything, maybe I should have stayed on the ground the rest of the fight because I could have won a decision possibly.
But I learned a valuable lesson, man.
And every fight, there's something to learn.
Yeah.
I mean, look, I obviously have, you know, like, I get scared of things.
Yeah, I'm scared of something.
So I know nothing, but it's like, it's definitely just, it's interesting to sit back and talk about it.
And it's what we do as humans.
We see what happened and we look at it.
And it's like, I just know also Dustin was bumped probably he wanted to fight more.
That's the thing, too.
And I think it's the same with guys like you.
It's like, you just want to fight more.
Like, we got five.
Let's at least do four.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, even if you already won, let's do another.
You know, like, let's just keep it going.
Man, the energy in there was so wild, man.
And Gaetchy was back.
Gaiti's just back.
He's literally just like, who can I fight?
Who can I fight?
Who can I fight?
He's ready to go.
Oh, bro, he's ready to go.
Let me tell you why I think that Gacey is a great matchup for Olivera.
Yeah, what do you think would happen to Oliveira Gaetchy?
Because I feel like that's probably what's going to be next.
I don't think you're going to see a Poirier Olivera rematch because I think it makes sense.
Well, he could go make money fighting McGregor.
That's what I think.
He might just get that money fight or Nate Diaz fight.
They would pay him so much money for that Nate Diaz fight.
And he's in a position, bro.
He don't even have to worry about fighting for the belt.
He's a fucking bajillionaire or whatever he is.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, he's made him some money.
So it's not going to be typical with him.
He's going to do something crazy, I bet you.
So what does the belt mean to people?
Because Dustin was an interim champion.
So that's a champion.
Especially with the way the belt is kind of used as like a bait.
They use it.
Sometimes it's who's definitely, obviously, it's always who's great.
But sometimes it's used by the administration over there.
It seems like it is like a...
And I don't think that these people who have the belts are fucking built different than anybody.
They had good circumstances.
And a lot of them are great and everything and are elite and stuff.
But I put it this way, man.
If I'm in a fucking street fight and I'm fighting for my life and there's one person I have my back and they said it's Dustin Poyer, I'm thinking, fuck yeah, I don't give a fuck what belt he's got, this or that.
Dustin Poyer can fight anybody.
Yeah, I don't care if he's wearing a damn.
I don't give a fuck who it is.
I don't care if he's wearing a belt from Banana Republic.
That's right.
I want DP having my back.
You know what I'm saying?
And, you know, here's another thing, man, with that championship stuff, man.
It's like, I hate to see these people get the belt and then they act like they're gods or something.
You know what I mean?
Like, it's, okay, McGregor, double champ, right?
Yeah.
Okay, DP ain't a fucking double champ.
Okay, who wins when they fight?
Right.
You know.
You know who wins.
Right, so it's interesting.
It's interesting what it ain't all about that.
And people's paths are different.
He has a lot of fights.
He had some rough nights.
And, you know, he's a championship fighter.
I don't give a fuck if he has a belt or not.
Like I said, I'm comfortable with him having my back in any street fight.
Amen, man.
Yeah, it's definitely interesting.
It's interesting to see different guys' paths.
Now, Dustin has made, obviously, he's had some choices and made some choices and had some blessings where he's gotten have a stronger financial side than probably a lot of fighters have.
That's right.
And do you think, does that start to influence other fighters to do their own things?
I know you got your music now that you got, you know, which is cool, man.
It's fun.
We listen to Grandmother's Grave a decent amount.
I do.
Thank you so much.
Yeah, dude.
It's crazy.
That's actually one of my favorite ones.
I like Problems in My Head and Grandmother's Grave.
What do I like?
I like, oh, Darkinson.
Yeah, yeah, dude.
Just thanks so much for listening, brother.
Yeah, it's just interesting that where did some of that kind of like do you see guys doing different things and doing creative stuff?
And is that kind of what inspires you to be like, you know what, I'm going to do some of my own stuff as well?
Is it just you wanting to express yourself?
Where do you feel like any of that kind of comes from?
The expression of it.
You know, the first song I made, it was just it wasn't supposed to be a mixtape or nothing.
I was just making it.
I made it from Old Lady, you know, and because we fighting over some petty shit, and I just wanted to let her know this is petty, you know, kind of express myself.
Right.
And then she was like, well, that was really good.
You should make another one.
You should make another one.
Let's start fucking putting out hitters, brother.
Dang, baby.
Let's go.
And so then did you match up with somebody to help you make some beats or how'd that happen?
I got them all off of YouTube.
Wow.
And then I went to the Joker in Little Rock.
And his name's Kev.
But, you know, we went up there and cooked us up a little mixtape.
Gang, gang, baby.
Yeah.
Pasture fire.
You guys can check it out if you haven't checked it out.
Yeah, I put a lot of heart and soul in there, man.
Yeah, a lot of great lyrics, man.
Thank you very much, brother.
Barred up like a damn prison.
Yes, sir.
Got bars for life.
Oh, son, you in, boy.
You doing a damn seven-life sentences on some of them lyrics, man.
There's a lot.
Yeah, what kind of time did that take?
Oh, the first one, the first song on there, I made about a year and a half, maybe two years ago, and then I wasn't really focused on it.
And then I made another song and another one.
And each song probably took a couple weeks to write, except the first one.
The first one took like two days.
And then I would just kind of casually work on the other ones.
It wasn't like until about the last month.
And I was like, really, like, okay, I really want to put this shit out there.
I got about six songs.
I'm going to finish this seventh one.
I'm going to put this shit out there and then i started feeling like that that okay i need to finish this i need to wrap it up and i got that feeling but while i was making most of the songs i didn't have any type of timeline i was just having fun with it yeah wow yeah that's got to be nice so it didn't really it was just kind of a passion project it wasn't like a absolutely 100 passion in that it wasn't something you're just waking up and doing like i gotta get it i ain't gonna make no money bro i'm using youtube beats and you know what i'm saying like right it's yeah and it's it's more it's more about the the money man it's
about um the greatest thing that i could do is to relate to people that watch my fights that you know just to relate to people if there's somebody out there that that heard even if it's one fucking burst and they heard it and they thought well shoot i'm going through that too you know and it's like okay well now i got something in common with that guy meet that's kind of like my brother even though he don't know me he heard my song and he heard my you know and now we got this this we're going through the same shit type of type of feel yeah well yeah because the music always connects people it's the same as with yeah
you hear somebody it's like eminem you hear something you're like damn that's my fucking that's one of my favorites right there eminem yeah you're like that's my guy man um do you uh do you feel like you need to do stuff to try and keep your name out did you did you start to ever feel like that a little bit because it's it's tough because it's like you you don't disappear you're there you know you have a great rank you're top 15 your 10 or 11 in some of the rankings or what you know whatever the rankings are kind of
um but that you can't get out there and express yourself you you know your lit your expression is limited yes because you can't get in there that's what i feel fighting is and and same with the music and uh you know the feeling of people forgetting about me or whatever it is true everybody if you stop fighting people forget about you but that ain't why i fight right it is this inner desire to express uh most of it's fucking anger frustration yeah you know and it's and
it's um it's more about i all i care that is that god's watching me yeah you know what i'm saying like that i have a purpose that i'm fighting for something yeah and i don't give a fuck who's watching if i feel like god has told me to go in there and fight to better my life to better uh potentially better my family's life that's what i'm doing it for it's not for any type of attention i did not put the mixtape out for attention i put it out um like say i put it out anonymous anonymously people didn't even know it was mine i wouldn't even i don't even give a fuck as long as people liked
it you know i just want people to relate to it and feel good it's just expression and bro i ain't made no money off that i put hundreds and hundreds of dollars into it you know what i'm saying like it ain't about and right it ain't about that it was about letting that shit out of me and and you know it's been built up for a long time and like when i'm when i'm fighting or whatever man you get these emotions it's just like the closest thing you could feel to like god you know what i'm saying like i'll be fighting sometimes and i'll just like make myself or i'll be rapping sometimes and
i'll make myself laugh i'll make myself cry i'll get mad at some shit that i say like i'll be in the middle of a rap freestyle and in my in the car or something and say fuck you know it makes me so mad just thinking of that memory and i'm like hitting the steering wheel and shit and then i'm like okay i just snapped out of it that's not i'm not doing that for money right you know what i'm saying that's like i'm letting this shit out yeah yeah i think that's one of the things even just like you know dustin's probably the fighter that i know the kind of the closest so it's been interesting to just uh i can understand
exactly what you're saying like if you look at his early stuff it's like it's just this anger it's this angry guy fighting yeah and then you see as you as he starts to get older and evolve that you get to know he gets to express himself in other ways it's like you almost got to fucking get these layers of anger out of you so you can get to the stuff that's different so you can have opportunities to like get your voice out there it's like um i hope my anger goes away
one of these days but not before you have a few more good bouts out there man you know what i'm saying let's keep a little bit of it on yeah what else did i want to get into man okay so when you look at your how do you see your path to to the belt you guys have an interesting y'all's weight class is so interesting just the way some of these guys are built you know i feel like if it gets a little bit lower in weight class than yours a lot of the guys their body types are really very similar but y'all's weight class is like some of these guys uh the body
styles to me look really different you know just as a just a regular viewer what what uh what do you see your kind of path making it up through the rankings and some of the your future here your path to the belt what do you see your path to the belt i'm biased right you know so i i think two more big wins and i'm getting a title shot damn baby yeah so who could that be um so your next is your next fight barboza is that i don't know i mean we're still seeing yeah we're still seeing you know i'm just waiting on it and
yeah they i don't really have a preference just the higher rank the better right he's plenty high rank so oh yeah yeah i mean that's uh dude to be fight to be entering into the top 10 rank i mean that's huge bro in my head i've already done it a billion times like in my head you're asking like you're asking what's the path to the belt like i'm already champ in my head bro like i don't want to be arrogant but bro i am the fucking champ if you ask me and my trailer when i'm chilling bro
i'm the fucking champ what um well then let's maybe we'll jump off of fighting what do y'all got planned coming up for holidays are you still seeing the same lady no brother this yeah it's all right man it's just you know go our different paths and uh ain't nothing wrong with that you know yeah and have you been dating have you been in the dating pool out there you on the apps or anything like that no i just i've just been laying low brother like i said i went to a t-bar the other day it's most you know i've even seen females in a while so yeah you know but
like i said that ain't my scene i've just been kind of training and and whatnot but um yeah i ain't even worried about it yeah you have a gym at home now that you're training at i'm working on it it's actually really close to being built i'm building a block wall because um i have to lean these mats up against a wall and i don't have a wall to uh lean them up against.
So I'm building a block wall.
It's got to be nine blocks high.
I'm seven and a half of the nine block rows.
Gang, baby.
So it's getting close.
Yeah.
We had some questions that came in.
Let's get into one of our video questions.
Roll you want to pull one up here.
What's up, Theo?
What's up, Thug Nasty?
Gang, baby.
First off, if Thug Nasty, I'm talking to you, man.
If you were in the cage with a gorilla and a panda bear, over or under, how long would it take you to sleep both of them out?
Let me know.
Oh, damn.
Gang, Theo.
Gang, baby, thank you.
Yeah, that's an animal question.
I would never sleep a panda bear.
That panda bear would have my back first off.
Let's get that.
So it's me, a panda bear versus gorilla.
Yeah, now we turned it up.
Shit, man.
I'm going to be like dancing around the panda bear while he and then try to jump on the gorilla, go for the rear naked.
Actually, gorilla is dangerous, though.
Absolutely, bro.
I mean, he might as well have said.
He might as well have said Tyrone Woodley.
I mean, it's the same motherfucking thing.
It's like, same risk there.
You're going to get fucking smashed.
But damn, a gorilla is so dangerous.
Yeah, that's right.
That's right.
You know, I would go for the choke, bro.
I'd have to use the panda as the decoy.
Yeah.
You ever seen Kung Fu Panda?
Yeah, it'd be like that.
It'd be like the final scene in that movie, bro.
Yeah, y'all got to use each other.
If y'all are in there together, that'd be great.
You get in there, and then you and the panda freaking, you guys join forces, you know?
That's right.
And then you guys go straight at that gorilla, bro.
I fucking hope Herb Dean's there that night.
That's all I got to say.
Dude, I got to meet Herb Dean, man.
Dude, the other night was so crazy.
So it was just a crazy night.
So I went to the fights, right, with this guy, David Spade.
He was in Tommy Boy.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, Joe Dirt.
Yeah, Joe Dirt.
Bromo, bro.
I want to just fight Joe Dirt when I go.
Yeah, dude, that's our president.
Yeah.
So I went to the fights with him.
I sit down.
We're in the front row, dude.
Like, Dana is literally like four feet away.
So I'm watching him sit there.
He's kind of watching on his computer.
And then he's on his phone sometimes.
He had a young fighter, I think, from Brazil or from another country that came up that was sitting there watching the fights with him for a little while.
This female fighter.
Hallie Berry was next to him.
I saw that.
Is that her boyfriend that was with her?
I think that's maybe her boyfriend or husband.
Maybe an actor.
Yeah, Van, I think is his name.
I saw her there with another guy.
I think I couldn't hear it.
It was a little loud in there.
And then Tommy.
Is it the closest you've been to the fights?
That really was, because I'd sat in Joe Rogan's seats before, but I'd never.
But this one, I mean, it was just as close.
Plus you got a good friend fighting.
Oh, that's fucking different, bro.
Oh, I was amped.
Yeah.
I was so amped, bro.
Yeah, it's amazing, I think, what, like, when you become a, UFC has become my favorite sport in the past two years.
I realized that during the pandemic.
Absolutely.
Like, damn, this is my favorite sport.
When you really get into it, it's like there's not other sports with the consequences or the rewards.
You know what I'm saying?
It's like, it's so, like, I can't watch a football game and I don't feel nothing.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm like, where's the guacamole?
You know, where's the cheese dip?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm here to eat.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're right, man.
There's nothing like at the fight.
It's just like, man, people come in and it's just this moment of like, there's going to be this moment of clarity.
And it's such a euphemism for just life, bro.
Like, you can try so hard and you can still be great.
You just might not get the outcome that you want.
That's right.
That's what's pretty fascinating.
It's like you see, because so many of the fighters to me are heroes.
That's what I realized when I'm there the other night.
I'm like, oh, my God.
Everybody I run into, I feel like, is a hero.
And your heroes die in the sport, man.
Yeah.
Yeah, and they die, but it's like win or lose, kind of.
They're still the hero.
Oh, they're still the hero.
Yeah.
It's still a hero, but it's like that letdown is like, it's like when one of my buddies loses, it's like, man, I feel his pain for him.
Oh, man.
Yeah, dude.
I was teared up after Dust.
It's like, oh, you just know that people want, you know, that there's this, I think everybody at times carries like a storybook idea of the way they think things are going to go or they could go.
And you see so much evidence that it's going to be like this.
And it could be anything.
I might win a fight.
I might get married.
I might have a child, you know.
And then whatever things happen that God wants or whatever the way it shakes out, it's just not how it shakes out.
And it's just such, there's so many like intense moments of, it's like life.
Just, it's such a fucking life that happens on those nights when you guys are doing those fights.
It's such like a, I think that's where I can relate the most as a human.
You're relating on a human level.
Because you're like, man, this is, there's wins and losses right here.
And there's dreams.
And there's.
Especially you talk about wives and children.
A lot of those fighters, they really need that for their kids.

Oh, yeah.
One night I got to watch.
This was at the Poirier McGregor and Gilbert Burns, I think, or Dorinho?
El Dorinho?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was out there fighting and his wife was sitting there and his two boys are there and they're like start punching each other and then they're cheering and then like oh and she's like losing her mind and it was just one of the craziest moments ever to sit there and watch them like watch their dad and husband and like all this crazy energy and yeah dude and then I kept running into different people and oh and then Dominic Cruz came up to me and he'd been in he'd been in a war right and he won and he has on these sunglasses and so I couldn't tell it was him right and
I'm like this guy I feel like is in the witness protection program bro he is protected up and then he's we start talking and I'm like oh my god this is Dominic Cruz man it just and I just was like holy shit this is my favorite sport it's like yeah I'm not really thinking about the guacamole I'm not even thinking about eating that's right that's right you know I'm just thinking like man I don't want to miss a moment of this like it's like a it's like you have all these arteries and all these veins but then it all comes together
for this fucking heart you know and there's just so much right there and then there's so much respect between everybody yeah for the most part there is man and that's that's my style yeah you know I I do like talking some shit if somebody wants to talk some shit but I'm not gonna initiate it you know I would actually much rather respect them and all that but I do like it when the people talk shit because then it makes it a lot easier to fight them yeah you know what I mean oh I guess it is interesting like do you think there's a difference yeah what is the difference going into
a fight where somebody where there's been a lot of trash talking and there's one where there's nothing is there a does the motivation change a little yeah uh the well maybe not the motivation to win but I'm talking about the motivation to truly hurt the person I think in my in my mind you're sick if you sit there and like think about hurting somebody that you that you like like but when I somebody calls me a bitch like bro I can sit there and think about just stomping your fucking head until hurting pulls me off like fuck the rules bro I'm gonna stomp your fucking head
but like if I like you and you got kids and you got it's like I'm gonna think about winning but I don't I'm gonna hurt you as little as possible you know what I'm saying like right and there is a difference in that for me but um I don't I don't think I think it can affect your performance but I think that I've blocked out all of that and either way I think my performance whether I like the person or not is gonna be the same because take this into account too it can also that can backfire you know if you hold the coal you'll you'll get burnt you know what I'm
saying so if you got all this animosity because this dude's calling you a bitch or whatever right it could be his game that could be his game that's right so but here's here's how I handle that okay there might be a chance in that fight where you've already knocked him out or whatever he's sitting there laying down herb dean's halfway across the octagon yeah you get that extra second or two if that motherfucker called me a bitch yeah well we're gonna see if I hit like a bitch before before herb gets there that's all I gotta say pre-herb
baby that's right but the rap is pre-herb this about that herb half second and I wonder sometimes if herb just laid back another quarter he don't like all the motherfuckers he might just let him get an extra one in fact there is a time I mean not on herb but on any referee of anything because I remember I even used to referee flag football dude I used to work at like the student center or whatever in school and so I and dude there were sometimes I wouldn't even pay it I would call kind of just right matter you can't help but lean a little that's just nature um
what about this Woodley when you see this like this Woodley uh Paul this second fight do you see the first one I saw the highlights of it I saw that uh Woodley rocked him pretty good which there weren't many probably yeah that's what I'm saying out of the high I watched the highlights and it's like the highlight video was a little bit slow so I'm thinking okay I'm not gonna go watch the whole fight but there was that one punch that Woodley landed and that's honestly all I saw of it yeah that's all I mean there wasn't a ton to it man but man good for him bro making all that money yeah
fighting guys that ain't as dangerous as what he was fighting like I mean he's fucking really doing it yeah and he's been through a I mean that guy's taking a lot of punches over there do you think that he'll the thing about Woodley though is you're literally yell screaming for him to punch right right and he doesn't punch yeah yeah bro and he makes all that money and he's sitting there just like that's a good point I think that you know if he was poor he'd probably fight a little bit different that might be true I mean I would say
so he might come out in a damn lazy boy on this next one then he might he might roll out and relax man damn that's right he really might in between rounds they got that lazy boy recliner it's a good point what if he just walked in and said look i'm just here to count money you guys are the fools shoot i mean it's it's been done before people people throw fights i'll tell you what uh back in the pride days you know that yakuza was real popular i don't know if you uh you know pride kind of that old school boxing ring stuff uh
yakuza fixed a bunch of those fights really yeah a bunch of them yeah huh some Some mob activity going on.
Damn, boy.
Yeah, so what I heard would happen is they get you in the hotel and they'll come up to you.
And a couple guys deep, throw up on you, got the briefcase.
That's right.
A leather jacket.
That's right.
Somebody wearing turtleneck.
Damn right.
You know, a couple of them looking mean.
They'll sit you down.
They'll open up the briefcase, half a million cash.
And they'll say, hey, do you want to lose in the second round?
And they close the briefcase.
Yes, sir.
Hey, I don't give a fuck.
Fuck, I'm probably going to lose anyway.
Shit, I don't know if I'll make it to the second round.
I might lose in the first.
I was going to lose in the first.
I was going to trip on the stairs on the way in.
Man.
Do you know if you will fight in February?
Is your date a locked?
Do we know that yet?
Date ain't locked.
Opponent ain't locked.
It's just, I mean, I have no clue to be honest with you.
And how's your injury?
Do you feel back to 100%?
Yeah, I feel back to 100%.
I mean, we won't know until I get in there and land a hard hit.
But if I punch like that again, it'll probably break again, you know.
So I'm going to change up my punching a little bit, try to go for more accuracy.
I've been training kung fu, though.
Really?
So if I break the hand, bro, I'm good.
I got my kung fu.
Damn.
So now what does that mean?
Oh, okay.
You know what I'm saying?
Right.
I'm going to go open hand on these motherfuckers.
Can you do that, though?
Can you hit open-handed?
Yes, as long as you ain't like doing that.
As long as you're doing that, you're fine.
So, you know, I'll break the hand again.
It's kind of like Connor.
Connor has some of that.
He does a little bit of some crazy shit.
You know what I'm saying?
Damn, bro.
Kung Fu.
Kung Fu, bro.
You could really kill somebody without Kung Fu, man.
That country Kung Fu, man.
Bro, straight that palm to the nose.
You already know that nose is going to the brain.
That's all they ever said growing up, dude.
If you hit somebody like that.
That's right.
That's damn right, brother.
I mean, I don't even want to do that to somebody.
I only do that if I have to.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm going to go in there closed fist.
If hand breaks, bro, I got to go old school kung fu.
Have you ever had somebody roll up on you that didn't know you were a fighter?
That's tried to get into it with you?
I'm sure in your area, everybody kind of knows now.
I mean, kind of last scuffle that I got into is kind of like that.
It was years, years ago.
But, you know, some people talk shit.
You know, nothing too crazy, though.
You know, I would much rather avoid a situation, you know what I'm saying?
Because the consequences are pretty bad, you know.
Right.
Would you, if you were about to get in a fight with somebody and they didn't know you were a professional, would you say, hey, man?
No.
No, I wouldn't fucking tell them.
No, no.
There we go, boy.
I ain't saying shit.
They're going to find out.
The surprise.
I'm going to try some new movies on it.
Yeah, surprise.
What y'all's Christmas look like over there, man?
What you guys got going on in Arkansas?
My petpaw's going to Florida, so I'm going to go to my mom's.
My petpaw ain't going to be there.
I'm going to have my aunt, my cousins, my mom, my sister, you know, maybe even some buddies come over.
But just, you know, turkey dressing, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, fried okra.
And you bring anything or they doing all the cooking?
I'm bringing that okra.
Are you?
I got that okra on the lock, brother.
Oh, yeah.
I had 192 okra plants this year.
Really of your own?
That's right.
Wow.
That's right.
One of them is over seven foot tall.
I about had to get a ladder to pick the okra off the top of it.
Damn.
Yeah.
192 plants, brother.
Wow.
Probably put in, like when I got to picking on my best day, I picked almost 10 gallons okra.
Wow.
I filled up two five-gallon buckets with it.
So that was on my best day.
Wow.
Picked 10 gallons.
And you like, is that one of your favorite vegetables, okra?
Oh, fuck yeah, bro.
Damn, really?
I love it.
Yeah.
Yeah, I love it.
It's such a strange vegetable, man.
I love it, brother.
Sometimes I feel like I don't know if we're supposed to be eating it.
You ain't tried it till you fried it.
Oh, really?
You fry it?
Yeah, I've had it before.
I've had fried.
I never fried my own.
I think I've only been had it.
You're talking about restaurant fries?
Yeah.
Bro, they don't do it good like mama does it.
Let me tell you what.
All right, I'll tell you.
Was the ochre, could you see any green on it?
Was it covered in breading?
I think it was probably covered in breading.
That ain't right.
That ain't right.
Okay.
You're getting most of that bread and you ain't getting all the okra.
You got to lightly bread it.
Okay.
A little salt, a little pepper, brother.
Trust me, you'll be an okra fan.
You come over this Christmas.
Rice Mitchell's okra, man.
What if you came out with a cool...
Yeah, what other things?
I'm glad you liked that.
Dude, that shit is so fucking ridiculous and funny, bro.
That's right, brother.
Hell yeah.
Let me just pull up a clip of it.
Everybody likes that line.
I would have made it on time.
I love it.
Let's go, boy.
They pay me to be here.
They pay me to be here.
They don't really care about it.
That's my favorite part, breaking a window.
Sick, bro.
That's what they came up with the script.
This is cool, too, punching this thing, man.
The whole thing.
They came up with the script.
You did?
Yeah.
They were actually surprised.
I don't think that they thought that I could come up with some shit like that.
Yeah, you threw their own humor on them, boy.
Hit them hard.
Hit them dudes.
That dude looks just like a car salesman.
Isn't it so random?
I'm shooting a 44 Magnum in a commercial just completely randomly.
I'm shooting a fucking pistol.
And they let you shoot it right at the vehicle?
Fuck yeah, I'll shoot a car.
Look at that.
That's awesome.
That's so crazy.
And you got your beer blogs, yeah.
That's good, Riley.
That's crazy.
Yeah, brother.
Yeah, what kind of stuff do you see yourself?
Like, what kind of other, are there other ventures you start thinking about?
Because I could see you having a cooking line.
You got some.
You got to have a restaurant.
Yeah, for real, a lot of Real creativity.
Well, thank you, brother.
You know, I like to think outside of the box.
Yeah.
Actually, I fucking ripped the box up.
I made origami out of the box, bro.
I'm getting real fucking creative with that shit, bro.
Ain't no box around me no more.
You know what I'm saying?
I want a restaurant.
Actually, that's why I got into cattle.
I got 22 cows right now, which really ain't much.
You know, I ain't made no money off of them, but we did get this year to where the newborns did cover the cost of the hay.
Oh, wow.
So we didn't actually have any expenses this year.
So that's fucking good.
That's even, man.
That's even.
And so y'all are selling.
Are you able to sell hay off your land or no?
No, eat it all.
So we had to buy some, but then we just sold cows to cover the cost of hay.
So and how many and how many cows does the cows have every year?
I think it's kind of like similar to a human, like the length of time it takes, you know?
So you come out there some mornings and they got one?
Well, they're actually a little bit north of me.
I've only got two at my place.
We're about to move four more, so I'll have six at my place.
But the two that I've got are mom and daughter, but they were already born when I got them.
So I've never seen, I've never had to pull one out or nothing like that.
No.
Get in there.
Not opposed to it, but I do what I got to do.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah, look, man.
Shit, I've probably done nastier stuff than that.
Hey, it's thug nasty, right?
It ain't thug not nasty.
That's right.
Yeah, I wonder what would be cool.
So a restaurant, huh?
Yes.
Now, would you be chefing in that no?
You'd have to run the restaurant at that point.
You'd have some people that know what you want.
I'm going to be the chef.
I'm going to be the cashier.
I'm going to be the security.
I'm going to be the janitor.
I'm going to be the plumber.
I'm going to be the construction work.
I'm going to be everything in this fucking restaurant, bro.
I want to do this shit.
What kind of food would it be?
Just home cooking?
Well, I would try to utilize as much of my beef as I could, you know, because that's one thing I could bring to the table, some beef.
And then actually, when I get more into farming, there's a possibility of getting, you know, some of my own pork, some of my own this and that, growing my own this and that.
You know what I'm saying?
So, and it's going to be a long time before I ever do.
I'll be completely done.
I'll be completely, I'm not trying to juggle a fight in a restaurant, but it is one of them things, like, that's on my bucket list.
I want to, I want to sell some food, and I got some secret recipes, bro.
Dang, boy.
Straight up.
You got them.
Dude, I'm sure you got a couple, some twisters hidden in your food books, man.
That's right.
What would it, yeah, I'm trying to think thugs, nice.
Thugs, would it be nice?
Would it be more like kind of, what are you thinking upscale?
What kind of place would it be?
I want it to be inclusive of all people.
Okay.
That's right.
Might even do one, like a straight-up restaurant, like some good, just good fucking food.
Just, I'm talking like fill you up type of stuff.
And then across town, have a little coffee shop with some of these desserts.
I'm telling you right now.
Woo!
Pastries?
Yes, brother.
My aunt, she learned how to make chocolate pies from my great-grandma.
Passed it on to my Mimi.
And then now my aunt's making them.
All I got to do is holler at my aunt, and then she'll show me how to do it.
Damn.
Or you got to get your aunt to do it, bro.
You can't be.
That's right.
You're going to run out of time.
That's right.
Hey, if I get some money, I guarantee you she would.
You know what I'm saying?
I mean, you ever seen the show Cake Boss?
Oh, yeah, I've seen that.
Bro, I want a family setting like that.
You know, like, that was my favorite thing about the show is like all these people love each other, working together, and it's like they're succeeding in life as a unit.
You know what I mean?
Like, I want that.
Yeah.
I think you could have that, man, because you don't have any children or nothing yet, huh?
No, I'm going to make some.
Yeah, you will, man.
I won't put it past you.
Dude, the hell is this jerky's good?
I wouldn't put it past you.
Maybe this turtle cell jerky is fucking good.
That's right.
And, bro, if your jerky camp in a turtle cell every time, that'd be fresh.
You already know.
I knew he was going to get creative with that thing.
God, that thing is fire, son.
It tastes better out the cell.
That's right.
I've been saying it for years.
Dude, I remember one time on the way to school, our school bus hit a big turtle that was crossing the street, and the bus driver, Miss Hazel, put that bitch inside the thing and took it up and cooked it.
That's right.
That's right.
It was the biggest turtle our town had ever seen, dude.
Feed the whole bus.
Oh, people were sending pictures around of it, drawings of it.
People were like, look at how big it is.
Just a damn sketched-out freaking little snapper.
That's right.
Let's hit another question that we had that come in for Mr. Mitchell, please, Raleigh.
Hey, what up, Theo, my Creole cousin?
What up, Bryce, my backwood brother?
Hey, brother.
This is Brady from Minnesota, just checking in.
What's up?
I'm just wondering, is there any truth to the report that you're going to be fighting Edison Barbosa come 2022?
I hope it's true.
Cook him to the bone.
Also, would you consider anybody from the UFC hopping on a track with you someday?
I thought that mixtape was fire, man.
Grandmother's Grave.
That's probably my favorite track.
Yeah.
I lost mine earlier this year.
Big shout out to both of you.
Gang Gang.
Gang Gang, man.
Yeah, that second part of the question, what do you think about that?
If there's somebody you could do a track with, who would it be, you think?
Shoot.
Who would be good?
I'm talking UFC.
Shoot.
Roy Nelson.
Oh, yeah.
Riding around with Roy Nelson.
My hard hitter.
Yeah, bro.
That song be called Biscuits and Gravy.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Who's Biscuits?
You baby be biscuits.
Yeah, yeah.
I don't want to be the biscuits, bro.
Oh, bro.
He's gravy, dog, for sure.
For sure.
Oh, bro, that would be so sick, man.
Yeah.
That would be a dope.
Who aren't there?
You and Derek Lewis.
That's right.
That would be fire.
And that could be biscuits and gravy, too, man.
Hell yeah, brother.
Or biscuits and syrup, maybe.
Biscuits and gravy.
Yeah, Roy Nelson, he hadn't fought in years, huh?
He retired.
I think he went to Bellator.
He might have retired, yeah.
What do you see happening next in the lightweight division kind of?
He was 55. I think Gachi could beat Olivera.
Yeah.
Well, now, but with Gage, Gage is a punch.
I mean, him and Dustin, that's why they're fights.
He loves to punch.
He ready to punch.
He was ready to punch.
He literally would have knocked me.
It's almost like something he'll do for you if that's nice.
Like, hey, I'll knock you out.
It's like a way to express anything, you know, kind of.
I think that it would be really hard for Oliver to get Gaeti down to the ground.
Oh, you think it would be hard?
But why would it be any harder to get him down than Dustin down?
You feel like that wrestling.
Yeah.
That wrestling.
And Dustin's done so much grappling in his life that he's been on the ground.
Like, he's not going to have that response that Gacey is going to have.
Like, there's a certain point in which somebody's in on a takedown and you have to expend, and you know, okay, they might get this takedown and they might not.
But if I don't want them to, I'm going to have to expend a lot of energy.
You know what I'm saying?
And I feel like Gacci, he's the type of person, like, I'll give everything I fucking got to stop this takedown.
I won't let you.
Whereas Dustin.
I've seen Dustin go for Getin'.
I don't think you'll see ever Dustin Gaetchy go for a G team.
But Dustin Poye is more comfortable.
Like, if a fight goes to the ground, he's not in trouble.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, DP can fight good on the ground.
But would it be easy for Barbosa?
Would it be easy for Oliver to get Gaci onto the ground?
You're saying that that would be the harder step to get him to go.
It would be a stand-up fight.
It wouldn't go to the ground, I don't think.
And then wonder what happens with Chandler in that division.
Because you got that Kismat Mike Kosmat Shamai?
Yeah.
Now he's a 85er.
He's a damn.
I feel like a damn idiot.
Dude, I feel like a damn idiot.
Oh, he's 85?
He's an 85er, I believe.
No, I'm sorry, he's 170.
No, is he?
Yeah, he's 70. Bring up the lightweight UFC lightweight top 20 rankings if you can.
But he actually had a grappling match with the 185-pound guy and beat him at grappling.
So he could actually get in there and hang with us.
That's the Islam guy, right?
Oh, that's what I'm thinking of.
Islam.
Okay, Islam.
He's 155, isn't he?
Yeah, I think he could beat all of us.
He's coming up.
That dude's coming up.
I mean, he's won.
I think he's undefeated.
I think I've seen a video of him getting knocked out.
Yeah, maybe he's won loss.
Now, the video also could have been some dude like photoshopping it or whatever, you know, like chopping it up.
But I did see a video of him getting knocked out.
Like I said, could have been a fake video, though.
I didn't keep up enough.
Scroll down some.
Let's scroll down some.
There he is right there, number four.
Does he have any losses in this rankings?
Does he have any losses next to his name?
He's 21-1.
Okay, that was the one that I saw.
That might be overall.
So 10-1, it looks like, in the UFC.
I saw that one where he lost, but...
So you got.
So Dustin would probably have to maybe fight that guy.
And that guy is a pure.
He's like a Khabib style.
Absolutely.
And throws more kicks and punches than Khabib does.
I see.
Man, so I see him beating Olivera.
Yeah, I could see that guy.
Because he just, that guy seems like on just like nobody's doing the kind of exactly just what he's doing.
Exactly.
He's got so many spots where if he gets that fight to, like, those other guys don't fight in those positions.
You know what I'm saying?
And it's like, whereas you look at like a Gacee and a Poyer, like, they're both elite-level fighters, but they're elite in kind of the same discipline.
Like, they're both good boxers.
Overall, the same discipline, yeah.
Yeah, they're like, they're kind of the same.
Not really, you know.
DP, he switched the stanches and flows, I think, on a different level.
He's a little more fluid than Gachie.
He is.
But just the way that they box and power punch and kick the shit out of you, it's real similar.
God, it hurts when I think of him.
There's nobody in that division similar to Makachev.
Right.
That's what's interesting.
That's what's scary about him.
It's like when somebody brings something to something that shouldn't be there.
Yeah.
You know?
Damn, he's the only one that's got this thing.
Exactly.
You know, like people's eating dessert and somebody brings in a damn, uh...
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Like, if everybody's having ice cream and one dude rolls up with a chocolate pecan pie.
Everybody's going to be fighting over that shit.
People are going to be at least looking over at him and be like, damn, he got that.
That's right.
He got that.
What do you think could happen with Cody Garbrait?
That shit broke my heart, man.
Dude, me too, man, because I really like that guy.
And, I mean, if I was him, I would retire.
I'm not kidding.
Yeah.
I'm not kidding, man.
I mean, if I was him, he's obviously probably not going to.
I don't think he gives a shit.
I think he's going to go beat somebody else's ass now.
But let me tell you what, he's done it all.
And here's what makes me the most fucking mad about that Cody Garbrandt situation.
And like I said, in the end, it will...
That's all that matters.
His spirit is strong, and he's a fighter to the death.
He'll fight anybody.
He was cheated out of his fucking championship belt.
They went back and done blood test on Dillashaw when he fought him on PEDs.
That's what I'm saying.
Fuck that motherfucker, man.
So they should have given it to him.
Fuck yeah, dude.
I mean, it ain't ever going to happen.
In my book, he is the fucking champ.
He beat TJ Dilla Shaw off of fucking morals by not being a little bitch and cheating before the fight.
You know what I'm saying?
He's already the champ.
You got TJ over here and Garbrandt over there and fucking street fights breaking out.
I'm going on Garbrandt's side every fucking time.
That's a real fucking man.
I'll die with that fucking man before I take the little bitch's side.
You know what I'm saying?
I ain't about that.
Yeah.
I ain't about it, man.
Yeah, and there's not a lot of...
You know what I'm saying?
He won't get his reward until he gets to heaven.
You know what I'm saying?
And God will say, hey, man, I know you are the champion.
You are daddy.
You are.
Just strap you up, baby.
And I'm telling you right now, that will hang over Dilla Shaw's head the rest of his fucking life.
Yeah, he knocked him out twice.
He ended his career of what it was.
Right.
Of what it was.
Now, I'm not saying he's done.
He's still going to make 10 times more money than me in my next fight.
Garbrand has crazy.
Garbrand makes that good money.
He ain't done.
But what I'm saying is he was at the pinnacle and got removed by a little cheap shot and bitch.
You know what I'm saying?
A dude that he would knock out and practice.
So this dude gets knocked out in practice and says, well, I'll just go put a needle in my ass.
You know what I'm saying?
That burns you up, huh?
It burns me up, bro.
Fuck that motherfucker.
And I'm not going to hold back.
And I'd say it to his face if he was right here.
Yeah.
You know?
Yeah, what do you think leads someone to do something like that to him?
He was scared because he got knocked out in practice.
And he said, you know what?
And he justifies it by saying in his head, he's going to say, well, you know, I need this win.
It's for me and my family and all that.
But man, it's like, you're fighting.
You're signing a contract.
Like, here's what I'm saying.
If you're going to be a gangster and be doing shit by the rules, go be a real gangster, TJ Dillishaw.
Go fucking, if you're going to not play by the rules, go with those, go gangbang.
You know what I'm saying?
Go see how long your little bitch ass lasts out there.
You know what I'm saying?
Go out there.
You want to do no rules.
Your ass will get cheap shot.
You know what I'm saying?
It should be a fairest possible sport.
And everybody should have an equal opportunity playing field.
And he took away one man's championship aspirations.
He took it from his family.
Do you think he should have been allowed back in?
Yeah, I think that if you could let him back in, like, I think he was clean as last fight.
He didn't look as good as last fight.
Did you notice that?
Yeah, well, I thought, because that was a San Hagen fight.
That's right.
I thought San Hagen could have won.
I thought that San Hagen won that fight.
But yeah, I mean, it was definitely not exactly the same.
I thought San Hagen won too.
He definitely did more damage.
But if you go by the scoring system, it was a close fight.
But damage-wise, you know who fucking did more damage.
TJ knows who did more damage.
Probably hurt to chew food a couple weeks.
You know what I'm saying?
He knows he lost that fucking fight.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Could you see yourself in a different division?
That division's pretty exciting.
A 55?
No, I'm too small, brother.
No, with Dylason, they're not 55, are they?
No, 35. Yeah.
35. I'd probably die trying to make that weight.
You know, I was standing back the other night.
I got backstage.
I got to stand by Al Jermaine Sterling.
He's, you know, in the future.
He's my buddy, yeah.
He's cool.
Interesting guy.
Funny dude.
He's like one of the first fighters I ever met at the comedy store a long time ago.
Nice.
Such a man.
I actually lived with him for a month.
It was me.
We were all staying at Ali Quinn's house.
Wow.
It was me, Al, Pat DeFranco, Al Joe, and Pumi.
And all these guys are fighters, right?
So we got six fighters.
I'm sleeping on the couch, right?
This is one of the funniest things that happens.
There's this Pumi stays in the basement, and Pumi's kind of like me.
Al kind of goes to bed a little bit earlier.
Pat kind of and Al Joe kind of go to bed a little bit earlier.
I'm up one night, you know, I'm sleeping on the couch.
Kitchens right there, right?
So I go out there.
I start making a little bit of stuff in the kitchen.
Boy, baby, cook it up.
And Al has this problem with coons getting into his trash, like these big old fucking city coons.
Oh, yeah, I've seen them.
Big ones, right?
And I told Al, you know, like one morning we came out and there's trash all over the ground.
Oh, they'll roll six deep too, man.
They'll come in, yeah.
That's right.
And so I told Al, I said, brother, I'll get these coons for you.
I said, I'll be on full patrol.
You know what I'm saying?
We're going to bed, Bryce.
I'm fucking getting them, bro.
And so I go out there.
I'm cooking a little bit.
And two big ones out there on a trash can.
And they're about to get into it.
You know what I'm saying?
I didn't have no backup.
It's two-on-one.
I got a spatula, bro.
And I was thinking, man, this is going to be a fucking good fight.
These are some big-ass coons.
I'm like, Pumi, Pumi.
And Pumi's down there in the basement.
And he's like, huh, what's going on, brother?
And tell me, he's kind of like tired.
I'm like, bro, I need some help up here.
Bat, bro.
There's two of them.
I'm going to fuck them up right now.
I need backup, dog.
Pumi don't even know what the fuck's going on.
Pumi runs out.
Bro, so I go out the door and I fucking smack one of these coons in the space.
Really straight up.
Straight up, bitch.
And he didn't back down.
Bro, he looked like he didn't even give a shit.
Wow.
He turned around and looked at me like we was about to have a long conversation.
And what weight class was he in?
Bro, he was one of them little fucking ninja coons.
He was like, I don't even know what weight class is.
Man, it's probably 105.
Bro, they were jumping from the trash can to the fence.
Oh, yeah.
And then he's jumping.
We had to stare down, and I was like kind of reared back.
And then Pumi comes up.
Pumi's got a butcher knife.
Thank God, because then that's when both of them, them coons is like, okay, now it's a fair fight, and they took off.
But Pumi saved my ass on that one.
And so shout out to Pumi right there.
We had a spatula and a butcher knife going deep on them coons.
Mother Nature got them hitmen, dog.
That's right.
That's what I'm saying, bro.
Mother Nature got them hitmen.
The craziest raccoon yet.
Sometimes you'll go out by the trash and they have the couple that are in the trash.
The weird one that always gets me is the one that's in the recycling bin.
Bro, these were the things like that.
You're like, who the fuck is that one?
Because that's the one that's looking for knowledge.
He's in there reading papers, looking through reports and shit.
Hey, these ones were the real fucking...
Like, probably like the Army Ranger ones, like scouting out for surveillance and shit.
I smacked this coon as hard as I could, dude.
Damn.
He didn't do nothing.
They probably went and reported back to somebody, I'm sure.
Oh, they sure did, brother.
Damn.
Orchestra attacked.
You know what I'm saying?
Oh, that's unbelievable.
Mother Nature, baby, that's the dark arts, dog, because once they get going, you don't know what's coming next.
No, bro.
Them coons, they come up from any window, chimney.
They come up underneath in the plumbing, brother.
Actually, them coons, that's where they actually, believe it or not, that's their headquarters.
Really?
Where under?
I've been keeping eyes.
Underhouse?
In Cersei.
Oh, damn.
Yeah, they live underground.
Y'all got a raccoon problem over there?
Militaristic, bro.
Their mindset's just straight militaristic, bro.
They got their headquarters underground.
They're up there boosting their population, getting their numbers up.
That's right.
It's worse.
That's Iwo Jima today.
That's like...
They ain't got...
That's like the coochie tunnels, baby.
So check this out, man.
They did this thing at Harding because the coons are so bad.
They go up and they grab the trash and then they scurry back to the little sewers.
Oh, really?
They did this thing at Harding.
They steam.
What is Harding?
It's a college offer too, yeah.
And that's where I've seen them for years building up their numbers, bro.
And they're just getting bigger and faster and smarter.
And they're not even afraid of motherfuckers now, bro.
The fur Chinese, they call them.
Yeah, like I was going to throw something away one time and damn near had a conversation with one of them.
He's like, man, you can't believe you're going to eat that.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, they ain't even scared of people now.
I saw someone with a wallet on him the other day with a wallet chain.
That's that pimp coon, brother.
Well, bro, they steam the whole thing.
Like, they steam them.
It's mean, man, but they steam the underground, and I think it's honestly to flush the coons out.
Wow.
But they're living now.
Ain't no joke, bro.
They're living now at the college, huh?
At the college, and you see steam coming up out of things for like an hour straight.
A gas.
They're trying to smoke them out.
Bro, that's against the Geneva Conventions as far as I understand.
That's why they got that military mindset, though, man.
The Nürnberg Treaty.
I think that shit should be done.
That's what I said, man.
I just turned.
I act like I didn't even see it, bro, because that's just fucked up.
It's one thing smacking with the spatula.
Bro, you're gassing babies down there.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I ain't about that.
This shit has to stop, dog.
Damn, it's a fucking R Gards, bro.
Damn.
That's right.
Wow, man.
What else were we talking about?
We have another good, any good other questions that came in?
Yeah.
Oh, we had one, too, that came in, too.
What were you and I talking about, though?
We're talking about.
And you said you guys had all stayed together.
Oh, Al Jermaine.
Yeah.
So we were living at Ali Quinna's house, and there were six spiders in the house, and it was just a hell of a good time.
So anyway, I was backstage, and that's when the Cody fight was going on, right?
And we were watching it.
And he said that when you drop down a weight class, like there's less, like, your body's so tight that when you get knocked out at a lower weight, it's real hard on your system because you just, you know, there's less like fat inside, there's less like cushing inside of your universe, you know?
Particularly from your brain.
Yeah.
Because think about this.
Your body knows how important your brain is.
When you get to that final moment in the weight cut, when you're like, okay, I can't cut no more, that's when your body begins to pull the moisture from the brain.
It's the last thing that your body will protect.
That your body will keep all that fluid in your brain until it don't have fluid from nowhere else.
And then your head, your brain fluid.
Now, guess which fluid takes some of the longest to get back into your system?
Brain.
That brain fluid.
Now, here's how I knew that Cody was really feeling.
I didn't think he was going to lose.
I didn't know.
That's not what I'm saying.
But here's how I knew he was feeling.
He ain't a fucking 25er.
He ain't a 25er.
I promise, bro.
He might do good at 25. He's really a 35er, though, because he's healthier at 35. But here's how I knew.
Because I saw him do a video, Garbrandt, and he was talking.
And I could tell his voice was not the same.
It was when you begin cutting that much weight, I have sinus issues, or you get just extremely dehydrated.
When you get to that point of extreme dehydration, you'll notice a lot of fluid change up here.
I actually cannot hear.
I'm not kidding you.
Wow.
Like, you ever get water stuck in your ear at the pool?
Yeah.
Bro, I've been cutting weight before, and it's like water's in both my ears.
And I heard him do this interview.
And, okay, so this is my normal voice.
I'm kind of talking.
I kind of heard him like, kind of like a, like, his, his, it was a different pitch, and I could tell something was up in the up in the nose.
He's just so dried out.
Bro, I was like, oh, he's dry.
And I could see in his cheeks.
I knew it, brother.
I knew that is a tough weight cut.
And I think that his performance was probably hindered by the weight cut.
And I think that he's a 35er.
He's heartbreaking.
But I'm just telling you, by the way he was talking, I could feel it.
I could feel it in my nose and my ears.
He was having sinus issues, bro, because when you start, your fluid is drained and then your brain flu is drained and then you got this pressure.
You can't hear right.
You can't smell.
And how can you fight like that?
You can't.
Not the same.
You know what I'm saying?
I didn't actually see the whole fight.
I just saw highlights of it.
But, brother, he's fast.
Yeah.
And he didn't look as fast out there.
Yeah.
Yeah, I can't even imagine the levels that your body has to go to to do all of that.
I think that that was just a big weight cut on him.
That's what I think you saw that performance out of him for.
And like I said, I didn't even see the fight.
I just saw highlights of it.
And like you said, man, I just feel bad for the guy because that's one of those guys that I just really fucking like, man.
Yeah, he's fun to cheer for, man.
Yeah, and he's just, yeah, his personality is fucking vibrant and he's vicious and he's ready.
He's always ready.
You know, I think he's like, I wish how I could be just like fucking, you know, he's got that.
I think a lot of people see that in him.
He does.
He's a special guy to watch.
All right, we got another question here, and then we'll get you on your way, man.
I know you got to get back.
We got to grab some lunch.
Oh, yeah, let's do it.
Yeah, I'm fucking starting.
I'd love that, dude.
Me too, man.
What up, Thug Nasty?
Tell you some real shit when we get off air, bro.
Street fights and shit.
Sorry.
Nah, you good?
Yo, what up, Theo?
What up, Thug Nasty?
First, I just wanted to shout out your new mixtape you dropped on YouTube.
Thank you, brother.
I just want to say it's great.
I hope more and more people hear it.
I honestly think it's better than 90% of the time.
God bless you, man.
Thank you.
I made it for people like you, man.
Dang, baby.
I hope it's doing well.
Quick question.
I heard you on Ariel Hawani's podcast recently.
You said you were driving about three hours or so to go get a truck, and I just wanted to know how that went.
Did you buy it?
And how's that truck working out for you?
Is it hauling them cows around as well as it needs to be?
Either way, I'd love to hear from you.
Best of luck against Edson Barboza.
And that's a real big drive.
Yeah, that's a real guy.
He's in, man.
That guy's in.
What'd you get?
A Ford F-350.
Oh, damn.
He's a 91. Bro, it's like a fucking little redneck paradise, bro.
It's like it has no key on it.
It's like a push start.
It's like he rigged up all the wires.
He rigged up a push start in it?
Brake lights.
Yeah, it's a push start, and you have to use a screwdriver to flip a switch.
Well, on the way home, what I didn't know on the back of the push start is like he literally rigged it up like on the spot.
Well, if you touch the positive and the negative, I let it hit the clutch.
And bro, spark and blew a fuse.
I have to jump the solenoid.
So on the way home, I fucking blew a fuse on the way home.
And then we had to jump it on the solenoid just to get it, just to get it started.
So me and my buddy would jump it.
Do you think it was a lemon at that point or what?
Oh, I knew it was good, bro, when I heard that engine, brother, that 91 7.3, like I said.
I'm going to make you hard, son.
Oh, shit.
I don't make your cousin hard.
My cousin's been dead for years, dude.
You'll see the soil on his grave.
That's right.
You'll see the fluff a little.
Bro, that 7.3 is an iconic engine.
Wow.
And let me just tell you right now: I don't care if you're four guy, Chevy guy, Dodge guy.
I don't even care if you like fucking the Honda trucks.
I don't care.
You cannot talk shit about a Cummins diesel engine, and you cannot talk shit about a 7.3 engine.
I think International Harvester might actually make the engine.
At one point, they did.
I did some research on it.
But the thing about what I've got on a 91 from I think 91 to 94, they did the IDIs, and that's what I got.
Now, here's why I like it.
This is why this truck was made for me, brother.
Well, first off, it was $3,800.
It's in my fucking price range.
That's what I'm saying.
Price Mitchell, they call him.
Hey, the price is right.
Price Mitchell, bro.
That would be a good story.
The price is right.
Price Mitchell.
You'd be so much better than Bob Barker on that show, man.
If there's ever a price is right, you're the motherfucking hoe.
You'd be giving away damn owl meat on that bitch, dude.
Show wouldn't even last episode.
He'd be giving away everything.
I give half them bitches away on there, too, dude.
That's right.
I'd say we got to get rid of some of these bitches up here, man.
So the IDI engine, it's different than these modern PowerStrokes.
PowerStroke is, they're both great engines, Ford engines, but this IDI is mechanical in nature.
So it doesn't have as much computer parts.
And so that's what I love about it.
I fucking cannot stand all this cheap electronic shit.
And let me tell you, it ruins everything.
And it is to the level where it is a conspiracy.
If you don't think that they're making these cars to break at a certain point or making it more expensive for certain parts, you're fucking blind, bro, because that's what the industry, the cars from the 90s with the manual transmissions and the simple engines last longer and are easier to fix than these newer ones.
They're doing that because they want you in the dealership.
And they don't, like, I got the best mechanic in the fucking world that lives like right down the road from me.
His name's Paul Underwood.
And let me tell you what, I guarantee you, Mr. Paul could fix anything on that 7.3 IDI.
Right.
You know, and he could probably fix a power stroke too, but there's going to be some computer.
Yeah, something you can't, that's out of your control.
But it's just like, okay, you're going to have to order this cheap ass part from some.
Just to get the shit to work.
Yeah, and by now they know how long you're going to use a car.
It's just so many things, bro.
It's a conspiracy, bro.
Like, it's, it's called, if you want to look into it, it's called planned obsolescence.
It's been going on really since the beginning of time.
It's not a conspiracy, bro.
But like when it first started getting popular, there was one instance of it in Germany.
There was a people who made t-shirts, I believe, maybe t-shirts or jeans, but they started using nylon.
Well, bro, nobody, they didn't have any return customers because the fucking t-shirts and jeans was lasting forever.
So it's like they sell a pair of jeans and you never see that motherfucker again.
So they had to start making shitty jeans.
But, bro, that's in every single industry that there is, and it's to certain degrees, but in the car industry, you see so much planned obsolescence.
These pieces of shit, especially Nissans with their CVT transmissions, you know, because I have one going on.
Nissan, damn.
I wouldn't even come in one of those.
Here's it exactly.
Well, I beg to differ on that one.
What you do is the one complaint I don't got, bro.
But let me tell you what, them headlights, for example, you get you one of these Nissan 2006 Maximas.
This is the planned obsolescence that I'm talking about to certain degrees.
Okay, you break your headlight.
Guess how much that fucking new one costs?
Probably $250.
$150, yeah.
Damn.
Bro, it's a fucking headlight.
They can make that for $3.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
So they got you, and they do that with their transmissions.
They do with their engine.
Not this Ford engine, not this 7.3 IDI.
It's a real engine made for real farmers who really work for their real money and don't want to spend it on no fake shit.
And that truck is me personified, bro.
And the only thing I got to do is got to add a little one of those gooseneck balls on the back of it that mounts right there in the truck bed.
Oh, for pulling that heavyweight from cattle.
Oh, really?
And hey, so what?
It's for the transmission, though?
Well, it's so you can actually pull that weight.
If you, you know, the balls that hang off the back like a regular, like on the, you'll see up there in that truck.
You'll see, I got a little two-inch ball.
I got a three-way on the back of it.
Not the kind you like, but the kind with, you know, the kind with three different hitches on it, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, that sticks off the back of the truck.
Okay.
Okay.
When you mount one of these gooseneck or fifth wheel hitches.
You got to do it from the inside?
From the truck bag.
And so that distributes to where all that weight ain't on the, it puts more of it up front.
So your truck and more of the weight goes to the trailer.
And so now you can pull 32,000 pounds, bro.
Like, I'm going to be pulling some shit.
Damn.
Oh.
Yeah.
So I got to get that.
I got to fix my brake lights.
I got to rig it up to where I'm not jumping the solenoid every time I start it.
It's got a little bit of ash on the seats.
I can tell this dude.
He had a swisher.
When I pull out the little cup holder thing, he had a swisher in it.
I'm like, bro, I ain't even tripping.
I just wish I was here for that one.
You know what I'm saying?
But, bro, it's so cool.
Like, it's an old school manual.
And by the way, you don't ever see these manuals.
That's how you know they're trying to make these vehicles to break.
Now, you can't even hardly find a fucking truck with a manual.
I will never buy another vehicle that's not a manual unless something crazy happens and I get some good deal or something, you know.
But, you know, this thing is like, you put it in the first, bro.
And, like, you don't even just let off the clutch, man.
Like, it's going to go.
It's not going to die.
You know, it's got so much power.
Like, I'm not even touching the gas.
You just put it in first.
Don't even creeps.
Yeah.
It is nice to get into something that feels like it has a life of its own.
Bro, it does, man.
It's got two gas tanks on it, and you switch it, but one of them don't read.
So you just kind of like have to, you are the gas gauge.
Bro, that's fire, dude.
It's like old school, not even knowing how much gas is in the middle.
I just know it was meant for me, bro.
It's perfect.
Dude, that's awesome, man.
Damn, yeah, you can pull a lot of weight with that, man.
That's right.
32,000 pounds is what it's rated for.
Of course, I don't even have a gooseneck trailer, actually.
That's the next thing that I got to get is a gooseneck trailer to pull any of that shit because I've got light duty trailers right now.
I could pull about most I put on and about 6,000 pounds on one of them.
And I'll tell you what, I put 6,000 pounds on a trailer the other day.
I bought for that block wall that I'm building in the garage.
Bro, you ever heard that song, Jesus Take the Wheel?
Yeah.
I could have shot the music video about three days ago.
Bro, I was driving home from Lowe's that had 6,000 pounds of blocks on the back.
And I was going 40, and I just got comfortable.
I might have even been freestyle.
I was freestyling, bro.
I'm sitting here.
I'm rapping in the truck, bro.
I got 6,000 pounds in the back.
And, bro, and I'm going 40 on a straightaway, and I start curving them.
It's not a sharp curve, but that curve was enough to start a fishtail, bro.
And, bro, Jesus, take the wheel.
There's nobody coming or nothing, bro.
But hey, I think a good thing for me to, maybe the reason that this popped into my head, maybe God's trying to save somebody's life.
Let me tell you right now, do not touch the brakes if you get into that fishtail.
You see what I'm saying?
Yeah.
That's when you really lose it.
So I just, I didn't do anything.
I kind of straightened it out, but not overcorrected it.
But, bro, I was scared.
And was it icy or anything or no?
No, just all that weight.
All that weight.
Yep.
Yep.
Fuck.
How far is that Home Depot from you?
About 20 minutes.
On that one, probably about 30. I'm driving real slow.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's funny how you get a little bit comfortable, dog.
And next thing you know, it doesn't even matter.
You got all that weight in there.
That's wild, bro.
I was hitting a good freestyle, too.
Were you?
I was on it.
Damn, bro.
That's living life, son.
I love that.
That's right.
Bryce Mitchell, you got it.
That's right.
Hopefully.
Yeah.
But you feel 100%.
I do, brother.
Yeah.
I do.
I got some built-up energy, man.
You able to train up.
You're able to just go train when you want?
Absolutely.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
Damn.
I don't know if I have anything else.
Any other good questions that came in, Riley?
Did you see anything?
Oh, let's take him through those three deers real quick, and then we'll go get something to eat.
We got three animals right here, man.
We just want to let you know, how would you handle these three situations?
Here's the first one right here.
Bryce famous put a deer in a twister.
Here's a fella right here.
Has he been shot?
No.
I would.
guys just trying to i guess touch hands first oh Damn.
Damn, dude.
So I guess he maybe got a little close to petting him or something.
How do you handle that situation?
Who's side of you on, though, would you think?
First off, he fucked up.
He's right in front of it.
You want to walk up behind it.
That's where he fuck up.
Come up behind it.
I take a knee on belly.
Yeah.
You know, don't give up position.
That's all I got to say, bro.
Like, straight up, like, stay on top when you're talking with them deer, bro, because they got that good top game.
Their bottom game is weak.
Right.
You know what I'm saying?
It becomes a positional battle.
And like I said, he should have approached from the back.
That's where he fucked up.
But their bottom game, if you're on bottom there, you got those antlers.
That's insane to deal with.
Oh, that was a buck.
Yeah, that's a different story right there.
But here's what I'd have done.
I'd have locked out my arms.
I got a little knee on the ribs, arms locked out.
Now he's awake.
And then I'm just going to brainstorm for a minute.
I'll be honest with you.
I ain't been in that one yet.
I'm going to lock him out and I'm going to brainstorm for a minute.
Let me tell you what, that rear naked is going to be hard with them antlers in the way.
You might have to pull a triangle.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, it's going to get desperate.
Yeah, actually, a triangle should have more control.
You'd probably be able to keep him upright enough to keep the antlers away from you.
If you want to be real fucked up and you can talk about some animal cruelty, you go for an arm bar.
Bro, then you won because even if he ain't going nowhere, bro.
Like, if them antlers are in the way, bro, go pull an arm bar.
And like I said, I'm all about position, staying on top.
But if you can't sink in that choke and that deer's getting up and you see an arm, go for that arm bar, brother.
Yeah, and he got four arms, dude.
That's what I'm saying, bro.
Like, he ain't gonna, you know, he ain't got no defense.
You know, the best defense is hold your hands together.
Yeah.
What's he gonna do?
Yeah.
Damn, that's a risky movie.
Here's a second one.
We got three of them for you.
Here's the second one.
Now, this lady got...
Keep the volume off.
So that lady got, she got that lady took that.
It looks like a doe or just a female.
Oh, yeah.
She took his back and got him down.
See, what you see here is perfect.
We got situational awareness.
I promise you, this ain't her first go-around.
You see them hips on that?
She's putting them hips on that deer's hips.
She's keeping that low center base, knees spread out.
I can tell you right now, this ain't her first rodeo.
Yeah, this ain't the first deer at the Walmart for this lady.
Nah, bro.
And she's holding that arm.
She's got that arm locked, too.
If you see up by that, she's keeping that arm, that deer from getting any.
I'm not even going to comment on this because she's doing far better than I would have.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, that's a cleanup on aisle three.
She's going to take it out and it's done.
I think, yeah, she's already cleaned up.
Let's get that third one, the last one we got here.
Shit, perfect technique.
And this one we can have some audio on.
Oh, no, yeah, this was fine.
and how do you handle this situation And this year, obviously, on some uppers.
Oh, yeah.
Well, right there.
I don't see anybody trying to cut off the room.
You know what I'm saying?
I see that guy.
First off, he gets up out of the chair and he's not in a stance.
That's where he fucked up first.
That's the first thing I do because, you know, there ain't no bed door.
He ain't going to go out the back door.
You know what I'm saying?
So first thing I'm doing...
First thing I'm doing, brother, I'm getting low in that stance.
I'm going left, right.
You know, he's going to have to go back to that door.
Yeah.
And then I'm going to creep a little bit.
You know what I'm saying?
Play it out.
I'm going to get in range.
You know, he's going to be doing this shit.
So I'm going to back up, go down a little bit, maybe slap.
You have no footwork there.
How is he going to pursue that here?
You know what I'm saying?
He's flat, standing straight up.
Completely unprepared.
I wish that girl from Walmart was there.
Oh, yeah, you really do.
That's who he wish was getting her hair cut.
But people completely unexpecting this shit, bro.
Like, they got to be ready.
You got to be ready at all times.
But that's true, man.
I think you have to take a little bit of position there for sure.
I think that guy didn't want the smoke.
He kind of wandered over there.
He ain't never had some good deer jerky.
Yeah, he never had some.
If he had some good deer jerky, he'd be like, all right.
I'm going to cook you up, bro.
We're not letting this thing leave.
That's right.
That might be good, man.
That might be enough.
Bryce Mitchell, thank you so much for coming in, man.
Absolutely.
It's a pleasure to be here.
Thank you for these gifts, too, dude.
This jerky is fire.
Thank you.
I'm so glad you liked that.
I hope you ain't just faking it.
I'm not at all.
I could have had about 20. I know you ain't because you've been eating it the whole time.
Like, you already told me if you was faking it.
Like, now you're just going too far with it.
Shit, I might smoke a little bit of it, man.
Yeah, I had dinner with this guy, Jordan Peterson, last night.
He only eats steak.
Love that guy, bro.
He only eats steak.
He is amazing.
He was in here in town.
Him and his daughter lives here now.
So, bro, we went to dinner.
Actually, I watched those podcasts.
Oh, yeah?
I'll just show you the picture of the after dinner, dude.
I'll show you the damn picture from dinner, dude.
This shit was ridiculous.
Man, he's just such an inspiration, ain't he?
Yeah, you know, it's like smart dude.
He's smart, and he's just like, you know, and he says the most powerful thing you can be is articulate.
And he says the biggest thing is what gets your attention.
What do you give your attention to, you know?
And that's kind of fascinating because it's like, yeah, I noticed, especially in this technology world, like so many things get your attention and they're calculated.
Like you're saying, like with how they got the car parts ready to wear out, that shit's all calculated.
It's like they fucking using data to know exactly when you're going to walk back in the shop.
So it's just, we're up against the dark arts, man.
But this was a damn.
Ain't much left, brother.
Bro, no, but the best part was that was dinner.
It says everybody ate freaking steaks and lamb.
I mean, and they were lamb sounds so good.
Bro, they were chewing on the bones over there.
Absolutely.
Dude, I'll take the bones home, give them the dogs.
Shit, I'd be a dog, man.
It's not like you bring home some good stuff, man.
Hey, next time I'm going to bring you some more, brother.
Since I know you like it, I'll bring you two bags.
Dude, this is a couple grams, dude.
I could have sold this in high school, baby.
Damn.
Bryce Mitchell, thanks so much for coming in today, man.
Thank you so much for having me.
Always an honor, baby.
Well, we appreciate you being here, man.
Happy holidays to you.
Amen, brother.
Thank you.
Dang, baby.
Yeah.
Damn.
Now I'm just floating on the breeze, and I feel I'm falling like these leaves.
I must be cornerstone.
Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this piece of my life out.
I can feel it in my bones.
But it's gonna take a little time for me to set that parking break and let myself on my shine.
Find that light on me
I'll tell you I've been moving way too fast on the runaway train with a heavy load of mine.
And these realms on, they're walls so thin that they're damn near gone.
I guess now they just were built to lay.
