Chapter 1: What is discussed at the start of this section?
Did you ever think you would make it? I feel I'm supposed to take sweet victory. I know this life meant for me. Adam, what's your point? The future looks bright. A handshake is better than anything I ever saw. It's right here. You are a one-on-one? My son's right there. I don't think I've ever said this before. All right, so we are live, folks.
Obviously, everybody knows when we think about what everybody wants to talk about. I mean, I've been tweeted at a million times. Pat, can you please talk about this? Can you please talk about that? We're finally going to be addressing it. Tom's not wearing a tie today. I know it's an issue for a lot of you guys. You're not happy about it. We will talk about that.
There are a lot of other things that's on your mind, such as Chicago Bulls, Jaden Ivey, not Nancy Ainsley. This is Jaden Ivey. We want to say the names properly, Vinny, because it's important to go through it. And it's important because last Friday, You know, the great Sean Hannity was here. You know, here's a guy that's been doing this for decades, came out, sat down at the podcast.
And by the way, it's not easy to do that. Nobody likes to do that. You know why? Because if I go and host for somebody else, the audience is going, oh, we missed this, we missed that. So, you know, I want to thank Sean here in front of everybody that you came and did that, especially a guy that's a decorated guy in the industry that's been doing great work his entire career.
And so thank you, Sean, for the audience that tuned in on Friday. I got a lot of commentary. I'm glad you guys had a good time together. I think the biggest complaint was we didn't talk about Iran enough. So the goal is to go two and a half hours into Iran today. So stay tuned. We're definitely going to be doing that. And Adam's committed to bringing and doing a podcast with a significant other.
Hopefully one of these days we can see that happening. Gas prices are four bucks. I saw the gas prices. We got to talk about that. Humberto came in today for no reason. I get a call from HR saying, why am I getting a complaint to HR from Humberto for gas prices hitting $4? What responsibilities does our HR department have over that? I'm like, RJ, I don't know what to tell you.
Humberto, you do one thing, he gets upset. Him and Justin got into a big fight this last week in front of everybody at SLS, which was hands down the greatest event ever, which if you were there, you know what I'm talking about. It was hands down the most epic. event we put together at the Trump Doral, the people at Trump Doral, phenomenal experience we had there. We got to talk about Tiger Woods.
I mean, Tiger Woods, man, there's a reason, like there's a part of me that thinks the founders of, I'm convinced Vinny, the founders of Uber and Lyft, I'm convinced they are such diehard fans that they created the company purely with the thought in mind to prevent Tiger from driving. Because they're like, why drive knowing you get in trouble when you drive? Just let us drive you. We'll take it.
And we'll give you millions of drivers around the country. It'll take you anywhere you want to go, and he's not using it, so we've got to talk about Tiger. Rumor has it he's not going to be competing in this week's tournament that's coming up. People are devastated.

Chapter 2: What are the implications of Trump's upcoming address to the nation?
It's a food fight every single day. Respect to Pierce Morgan. I wanted to make some waves. That was my methodology. I could be right. I could be wrong. I don't care.
The problem is this.
You said you don't care? No, meaning I don't care what the market thinks of me. I know what I believe. I know who I am. I know what I stand for. I stand for what America stands for. Dave Smith, what pissed me off, he continues to say that America is the greatest terrorist regime in the world. So what? And that Israel is the greatest terrorist regime in the Middle East. So what?
That's his argument. Sure. That's his argument. My point was that only 1% of Americans vote for libertarians. He's a hardcore radical libertarian. So when you wrote the book Choose Your Enemies Wisely, you said, who's your enemy? I said, I don't know who my enemy is. I don't really have a lot of enemies. You know me, Pat. It's a big difference between the internet and comments in real life.
I walk around in real life. I have zero issues. You don't have issues there. That's not the conversation I'm having. The conversation that I was just basically establishing is that Dave Smith, as potent as he might be on a podcast, or even on Joe Rogan's for that matter, people don't support this guy. I support our troops. I support America. I support our allies.
I think Joe's had them on 20, 30 times. Irrelevant. No, it's not irrelevant. So ask whether you agree with the guy or not. You know, Joe likes Dave, right? So the question you've got to ask yourself is, from my perspective, there is issues, there is approach, there is what's next for you. When I look at everybody in the marketplace, including myself, everybody in the marketplace, including myself,
I leave and I say, okay, how am I recreating myself for this next phase? What areas do I have where it's a leak for me? What habits do I have that I need to pay attention to? When we started building an insurance company, yesterday I had Lee Strobel on. We had a great conversation together. One of the guys I would study a lot was Billy Graham.
And Billy Graham and his friends, in 1948, they came out with something called the Modesto Manifesto. And at that time, there was a lot of pastors that were getting caught up with young girls. And they came up with this thing saying, hey, what are our threats? And they came up with the threats that they had. It was four things. One of the ones was pastors hooking up with members.
Number two was churches taking advantage of the members with money. Number three was the ego of a pastor. When you get on stage and you feel like, you know, you are God, like some pastors actually become God-like because of how much the church fears them and they like anyways. They go through this. I said, okay, how do we want to build this company? It's very hard.

Chapter 3: What are the main points of the debate between Adam and Dave Smith?
Now the next part is what? What's after retention? Implementation. Execution. So he only implements of the 30% he retained, 5%. He retained 20%, but he executes 20%. You retain 10%, but you implement 50%. Then it comes to coachability. Then it becomes the speed of implementation. Then all of that stuff. Feedback is feedback. It's receiving and implementing that matters.
That score of coachability, high, low, is the difference between you and Vinny. And that's the coachability marker that I want you to be internalizing for yourself. So, Vinny, again, I don't want to be on this too long. I want to move on, but if you want to say something, say it. This will take me two minutes.
From a debate point of view, because I'll give both sides, he's never been in this environment, meaning when they send a van, when I go and do these debates with – a panel of six, everybody's yelling, talking over each other. People don't realize you're in a van. You're sitting in the sun in Florida. I'm red. I know you were hot. Even what's his name was in there. Jaden was in there.
People are like, he's on cocaine. I read the comments because I want to know what the temperature is. The negatives were obviously you referred to another debate, which nobody wants to do. You were a little off. I felt, because I know you as a brother, I know that you were nervous. This is what bothered me, Adam. We are in here, and I know it's going to happen today on this podcast.
Israel is going to be brought up, and we're going to go into it. You are amazing at that debate, and I was disappointed because, you know, you're in the moment and you refer to whatever. You have the arsenal. You had the ammunition. You had this big-ass arsenal, and you just used a pistol. You were just, like, kind of going after and doing personal.
And I was disappointed because I was like, yo, you have it. You have it. You didn't use it. And this is my attitude. When I was young and I would get my ass whooped, my mom would be like, you're going to go outside and you're going to fight that guy right now. You're not going to sit here and let it fester. I know that you're going to do it. You're going to have to debate him again.
You have to do it again.
Sure.
Okay, all right, Tom, you don't look like you have anything to say. It's all good. I don't have anything to add. Tom, it's all your fault. No, no, no, no, no. Pat was very articulate about it. He's got standards.

Chapter 4: What are the implications of sending troops to Israel?
They say that they're going to be able to come back. And that tells me clearly that the logistics is for them when it serves their objectives. And I said this on the first podcast we did on the stage in the other building. If we send 1,000 of our American troops, I want 1,000 Israeli boots on the ground as well. But from what I'm hearing, Adam, from what they're saying, it's not going to happen.
Chapter 5: How does the discussion shift towards the Iranian people?
OK, and what do we like? I disagree with that 1000 percent. And earlier you said something about if they want to kill each other and whatever the people, whatever this whole thing started. My from what I recall is for the Iranian people, the Iran, by the way, who we haven't heard. I have your back. I have your back, and I haven't heard one. This guy that we just saw, he has Wi-Fi.
He's sitting in a room. He's talking to Piers Morgan. What happened to the people? I haven't heard anything. I haven't heard any updates. And that's what I care about. Because to me, besides the missiles and your uranium, what about the thousands that were in the street fighting and dying and pushing out their voices and the wrestlers that were being hanged in the middle of the street?
That's what this comes down to. And I'm very disappointed that Israel's attitude is, nah, we're not going to put troops. Meanwhile, we're trying to expand somewhere else. And then when you bring up the Greater Israel Project, people are like, you're crazy. By the way, that's a very valid question. A very valid question. If I'm sending my guys, you've got to send your guys.
If you don't send your guys, I'm sending my guys. Even the most logical player cannot sit there and say, what are you talking about? Even the most logical player. And by the way, even more from your end.
Chapter 6: What concerns arise regarding military alliances?
I don't even want it to be one for one. I don't even want it to be one for one. It's got to be two for one, three for one, because this benefits you more than it benefits me. I know we're partners, but it's got to be a two to one or three to one situation when that's taking place. And then what does that say, Pat?
What does that say about your ally that they're like, no, we're good, but you're over here, you're expanding? Like, wait a minute, time out. This is the situation we're at. The expanding part of Lebanon is your concern? But walk me through it.
How is that a concern of you?
Because right now, the focus should be this war. If you're defending yourself— No, that's not how this works, though. No, that's not how this works. And let me tell you what I mean by that's not how it works. So a lot of times when you're in a very, very chaotic situation, like when the— Okay, let me put it to you this way. Remember when COVID happened?
How many banks were getting killed and crushed? Remember, Tom, when COVID happened, how bad was it for some banks? It was scary for a lot of guys. Very scary. Okay, so who capitalized off that crisis? Go ahead. No, no, watch this. Go ahead. Jamie Dimon. How many times? Multiple. Multiple times. You know why?
Because he had all the dry powder to absorb the banks because he understood that what was coming. So let me ask you a question. Would you call Jamie Dimon an expansionist? Of course. It's not even a hesitation. I call him a business guy. I know. But what I'm saying is in this reference, he's an expansionist. You're expanding and he bought up other banks that couldn't handle it.
You don't think in this situation, Netanyahu is going to be an opportunistic guy and saying, hey, let's take this. Let's take that. Let's take this. Of course he is. Trump would do that. You don't think Trump's going to be taking over Cuba? No. What do you call that? You don't think if Trump gets a chance to take over Greenland, he will?
You don't think if Trump gets a chance to take over, he will? Of course. So the part where I'm going with this is the following. You can watch a guy and criticize him on a few different things, but also be able to sit there and say, I understand he's being opportunistic and taking advantage of what's going on right now, and he's getting everything he can at this point.
Trump does that, he does that. I get that. If I'm on the phone with him and I say, wait, you want me to send how many? I'm going to send this, but here's the deal. For every one I send, you send three. For every one I send, you send two. Because if you're getting out there saying we're not going to have any boots on the ground, guess what? Why am I sending my boots on the ground?

Chapter 7: How does the conversation conclude about Tiger Woods' situation?
I don't know that part. So that's the conversation. I don't know. There was a rumor that came out. I don't know if you guys saw this, that J.D. Vance called Netanyahu. Did you guys hear about the story? No. Did you hear it on OneRob or no? I did not. Yeah, that J.D. called Netanyahu and it's like, hey. You know, why are you making us go into this war? And allegedly this happened.
You know, angry phone call with, which news is that? J.D. Vance rips into Netanyahu on a phone call over Iran report, allegedly. Nobody knows this for a fact. Go a little bit lower, Rob. And Vance, during the phone call, Vance told Netanyahu that his predictions about the war, which he told Trump, about had not come true. Netanyahu allegedly told Trump that the Iran war would be quick.
As of now, the White House is considering sending more troops. Before the war, Bibi really sold it to the president as being easy, as regime change being a lot likelier than what it was, one source told Axios. And the VP was clear-eyed about some of those statements. Go a little bit lower.
what's so different about Jesse is that the president has clearly identified about this, Jesse, is that the president has clearly identified what he wants to accomplish, and there's just no way Vance said during an interview. So here's the thing also with Vance on what he's doing. It's funny. When I watch Vance versus I watch Rubio, this is the vibe I get. I get a vibe of a guy that is...
making all his moves so calculated for career advancement versus a guy that's doing what he thinks is the right thing to do because he believes it. So let me give you the difference. I've worked with a lot of guys from both ends. I don't know if you understand what I'm saying, Tom. I know exactly what you're saying, and I'm with you. One guy is doing his job, and he believes it.
The other guy is positioning his best. So I think J.D. right now is, you know, this phone call that was made is like, hey, make the phone call, leak it to the press. Leak it to the press. Why? Because he wants the non-interventionist, those guys who say, oh, wow, that's my guy that did this.
Where Rubio, honestly, who do you think is more resolved on what he or she is doing that can handle the criticism? Marco Rubio. It's not even close. Of course. He's like, no, this is what I believe in. This is what I'm doing. Here's where we're going. And I've been saying this for a while. I want to be documented saying this in 2015, 11 years ago.
So to me, these types of calls that are happening, it's more a positioning call than it is a, you know, tell them how hard I was on B.B., Tell them how hard and how much I pushed them. Use these words. Oh, my God. Look at the backbone and all this other stuff. Now, this could be a true story, and maybe I'm pushing it too much.
But I'm just telling you, I see some of the stuff that's happening that's too opportunistic. I think you're right. Vinny, picture the primaries in 28. Yeah. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Who picked up the phone and called BB and said, how could you?
