Okay, guys, Beast Games winner here today in Las Vegas, Jeffrey. About to be a fun week for you, man. Thanks for coming. I know. Glad to be here. You got a lot of fun stuff planned. WrestleMania, right? Yeah, a little bit of WrestleMania. Then David Blaine, and then heading down south to go to, or heading over west to go to Disney. How fast has your life been changing lately?

48.069 - 68.041 Host

Yeah, a lot, a lot different. I mean, sitting here with you is super cool. A lot still the same, you know, still coaching my son's baseball team, taking the kids to school. But yeah, just I, every few days I kind of have these sprints where a podcast recording, sitting down with a TV station, whatever it may be, but life is good, man. I love it. Does it feel kind of unreal? Yeah, I know.

68.081 - 80.007 Host

I was sitting last night with my son in the hotel and it's just like so much to be grateful for. I mean, it truly is almost a miracle that I won and that I actually, we get to do other things my wife and I wanted to do for our family. Yeah.

And you got a great head on your shoulders because when you look at the stats on lottery winners, a lot of them end up broke again or they blow the money. But it sounds like you're still doing what you're doing.

88.852 - 102.158 Host

I'm not spending a thing. Yeah, we've spent a little bit, you know, family vacation, got my wife something nice for her birthday. But other than that, it's kind of going, how do we make this work to ultimately achieve our goals? Yeah. And your goal, your son is a big part of your goals, right?

102.378 - 123.623 Host

Huge part. Yeah. With a rare disease that doesn't have a treatment, doesn't have a cure, just trying to figure out ways. And part of me is like, how do I... how do I look at this fresh? You know, forever you want to throw money to academia to do academic research. But I do think there's other ways to try to help get creatine to his brain.

123.663 - 132.912 Host

And I think I got to get creative to do it. Yeah. I'm sure a ton of different people reached out to you with their opinions. Was there anything interesting that caught your eye for that? I mean, yeah, you get everything.

132.952 - 159.531 Host

And again, I'm probably open to too much, but like everything from, hey, I'm an expert. I've been studying plant medicine my whole life to I am a prayer specialist who knows how to connect with people telepathically to a protein researcher at a prestigious academic institution who's like, hey, like, I think I can help implant certain cells into the brain to be able to accept creatine. So like, wow.
