=== Genius IQ Lottery Winner (01:44) ===

[00:00:00]  People often ask me, Tate, you are the best human being that's ever walked on the face You have it all.
[00:00:13]  You're strong and tall and sexy and smart and good looking and rich.
[00:00:17]  But if you had to choose, would you choose between smart or strong?
[00:00:21]  And obviously we continue to talk for a further few hours about how I have everything.
[00:00:27]  Like people hate the fact when I just say I won the genetic lottery.
[00:00:31]  I'm not trying to rub it in your face or nothing, and I'm not trying to be arrogant.
[00:00:35]  I'm just pointing out the facts.
[00:00:37]  My father was a chess grandmaster.
[00:00:39]  I have a genius IQ.
[00:00:41]  I'm 6'4".
[00:00:42]  I'm a lean, mean killing machine.
[00:00:44]  I've proved my athletic genetics by becoming a kickboxing world champion.
[00:00:49]  I've won the lottery genetically.
[00:00:51]  Like, who else do you see walking around here with a genius IQ and fucking muscles like mine?
[00:00:56]  I don't take steroids.
[00:00:57]  I don't take creatine.
[00:00:58]  I don't take protein powders.
[00:00:59]  I don't do nothing.
[00:01:01]  Just muscle just falls from the sky.
[00:01:04]  I've won the genetic lottery.
[00:01:05]  I'm a fucking G. And if you want to deny that, you're a hater.
[00:01:07]  Because everyone can sit here and go, yeah, Tate won the genetic lottery.
[00:01:10]  Yes, Tate's one of them lucky motherfuckers.
[00:01:12]  He won the lottery.
[00:01:13]  Anyway, what was I talking about?
[00:01:15]  Oh, yeah.
[00:01:16]  If I had to choose between smart and strong.
[00:01:19]  Obviously, I've got it all.
[00:01:20]  We just discussed that.
[00:01:21]  And in the scenario I've just given you, which happens at least every day, I discussed for two hours with the person how I have it all and they agreed because I do.
[00:01:27]  But if I had to choose, the answer is simple.
[00:01:30]  I would choose strong.
[00:01:32]  See, smart people have this idea that once you're smart, you don't need to be strong anymore.
[00:01:37]  I know a bunch of smart dudes.
[00:01:39]  Oh, yeah, but I have a engineering degree.

=== Strong Over Smart (02:35) ===

[00:01:44]  I will fuck you up.
[00:01:47]  And some dude without an engineering degree will come down the road and he'll fuck you up!
[00:01:53]  The reality of the human condition has always been violence and the capability for violence.
[00:01:57]  It doesn't matter what you think you have if you're gonna get bussed up by some fucking third-world savage.
[00:02:03]  The reason strong is more important than smart is because you can't be smart if you're fucking dead.
[00:02:07]  You can't be smart if you're killed or murdered.
[00:02:10]  And you're also not smart if you cannot enforce your opinion.
[00:02:13]  I'll give you an example.
[00:02:15]  You're smart.
[00:02:15]  I'm stupid.
[00:02:16]  We decide to argue.
[00:02:17]  You say 2 plus 2 is 4.
[00:02:18]  I say 2 plus 2 is 5.
[00:02:20]  You continue to say it's 4, I continue to say it's 5 until I'm enraged.
[00:02:23]  Now that I'm enraged, I've decided to rip your arms from your body and fuck your girlfriend.
[00:02:28]  You say, no, it's still 4.
[00:02:30]  I destroy you.
[00:02:31]  Left hook, your chin snaps, your head hits the floor and you die.
[00:02:35]  I fuck your girlfriend, she gets pregnant with my kid.
[00:02:37]  Not your smart kid, my stupid strong kid.
[00:02:39]  Who was right?
[00:02:42]  Seriously, who was right about 2 plus 2?
[00:02:45]  Because you're dead.
[00:02:46]  And if anyone comes along and says to me, what happened?
[00:02:48]  I say, I told this motherfucker 2 plus 2 is 5.
[00:02:49]  He didn't listen.
[00:02:50]  And they're like, oh, well, obviously it is because his ass is dead.
[00:02:54]  Strong always trumps smart.
[00:02:56]  And if you're a smart person, the most intelligent thing you can do is get strong.
[00:03:01]  When I was a kid, and I became the state chess champion aged 5 in the under 11s in Indiana, the youngest person to ever win ever on my route to become a grandmaster, which got derailed because I became a kickboxing world champion, blah, blah, blah, blah.
[00:03:12]  Anyway, when I won, my dad said, you have to take a month away from chess.
[00:03:16]  I just won the championship.
[00:03:17]  He goes, you have to take a month away from chess.
[00:03:18]  I was like, why?
[00:03:18]  He goes, because you're not going to be a fucking geek.
[00:03:20]  You're going to play chess, but you're going to be like me.
[00:03:22]  You're also going to be a monster.
[00:03:24]  Chess playing monsters.
[00:03:25]  Not chess, oh, I play chess.
[00:03:28]  I saw some fucking kid in the newspaper the other day.
[00:03:30]  He can recite pi to 200 decimals.
[00:03:33]  That's nice.
[00:03:34]  But you look like a geek!
[00:03:36]  So who gives a fuck?
[00:03:37]  Because you ain't going to get laid.
[00:03:38]  You're going to go in the club and start reciting pi to a hoe?
[00:03:40]  That's the worst game I've ever seen.
[00:03:44]  You cannot just go through life, well I'm a smart guy.
[00:03:46]  It ain't enough.
[00:03:47]  Because there's strong bruddas out here who don't give a fuck how smart you are.
[00:03:50]  They'll smash your face in.
[00:03:52]  You need to be a warrior scholar.
[00:03:53]  You need to have it all.
[00:03:55]  And being strong, if you had to choose, being strong is more important anyway because being smart ain't gonna save you.
[00:04:00]  I know you're sitting there going, well, if I'm smart, I can lock my doors and I can get a gun.
[00:04:06]  You sound like a dork.
[00:04:07]  Smart does not trump strong.
[00:04:09]  Not on the individualistic basis.
[00:04:11]  Obviously, a smart society can be a strong society because you can build laser weapons and shit.
[00:04:15]  I'm talking about an individualistic basis.
[00:04:17]  If I had to choose if I was smart or strong, I would choose strong.
