#16 Harvard Graduate vs High School Dropout | The Moments That Turned Our Lives Around

This week on ATI, we welcome Blade — a Harvard grad, former football player, and certified golden boy — to see how he stacks up against a crew of self-proclaimed degenerates. From guessing GPAs to sharing raw stories about daddy issues and internet regret, nothing is off-limits. We play a chaotic trivia game (Golden Boy vs. Degenerates) to see who the real smarty is lol. Blade opens up about the darker side of growing up with an opportunistic father, and we all get a little too real. If you like dumb jokes and deeper moments sprinkled in, hit that play button.For this bonus episode, Wootak feeds five years of his private diaries into ChatGPT to get a full analysis on his life — from why he self-sabotages to what’s really blocking him from finding love. We dive deep into his patterns, his views on family and friendships, and the emotional baggage he didn’t even know he was carrying. It’s raw, vulnerable, and maybe a little too real… but that’s what bonus content is for.🤫 Above The Influence is a completely self funded podcast.
