Like, I mean, I don't want the sugar industry coming after me, but I'm like, it's a problem.

It's a, it's a real problem.

It's a real, real problem.

I think even too, like there are a lot of people who are being diagnosed, I think prematurely with, you know, whether it's ADHD, ADD, whatever.

And a lot of this is symptomatic of the things that are coming from, from sugar.

Yeah.

It's just not, not optimal brain health.

And until you clean yourself out, you don't know.

you got to rule it out because you don't know what's wrong right so you're doing another season yeah season 18 this would be my 14th season you're you've been on it for 14 seasons 14 seasons of american ninja warrior um that's a blessing that's i played i played in the nfl for uh five years play i've been doing ninja warrior for 14 years the longest job i've ever had in my life it's been one of the most rewarding jobs uh because i get to celebrate the athletes and these are people who i actually kind of really connect with because

You know, they're not your LeBron James of the world, but yet these are your everyday people who are doing extraordinary things.

And, you know, just to see the show continue to grow, even in the industry that we're in today with, you know, Hollywood and the reshift and the remake.

What, you know, what we're seeing on TV shows being cut left and right to have a show on for this many seasons has been, you know, a blessing.

But I think it speaks to what people love, which is seeing people kind of overcome obstacles.

You know, there is like a little bit of a metaphor life there when you're seeing people overcome obstacles after obstacles, especially getting to know their stories.

It's fun.

It looks fun.

Yeah, it is.

Like, I want to do it.

Yeah, I did it.

I did it back in 2018.
