    4. JD

      I didn't bring my motherfucking glasses though.

    5. JR

      Oh, do you need some?

    6. JD

      Yeah.

    7. JR

      I have some.

    8. JD

      Just in case, if you're gonna show me something interesting.

    9. JR

      Yeah.

    10. JD

      Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir.

    11. JR

      So I started doing this, uh, red light bed. I started doing two things to help my eyes. One, I started taking Pure Encapsulations. They have this, um ... What is it called? Macro support? What is it called? Anyway, it's a bunch of supplements that they put together, um, to stop your eyesight from going bad and it's legit.

    12. NA

      Macular Support?

    13. JR

      Macular Support. That's it.

    14. JD

      You like it? Oh.

    15. JR

      Legit. It stopped ... Whatever the deterioration that I was experiencing, where my eyesight was starting to go, it stopped. Just stopped it, and it made it a little bit better, and then I started doing this red light bed. So I had this guy Gary Brecka on the podcast. He's explained to me how red light, um, revitalizes your capillaries and helps your vision come back. And so I've been doing that now for about six weeks and I've noticed an, an improvement. Like I don't need reading glasses as much if I'm reading things on my phone. I can read some things that I just was not gonna be able to read. And more importantly, it's not getting worse, 'cause like it was like kinda every six months, eight months or so, I'd notice my ... God, my eyes are worse. Like this is terrible. Like after like 46 it seemed like, somewhere around 46 it was like it dropped off a cliff.

    16. JD

      And you did the right thing because you didn't submit to these. My mistake was to submit to these when I was like 43, 44.

    17. JR

      Mm.

    18. JD

      By 44 I could see I was having problems already and I submitted to these, and this is worse for you. That's why I used to tell you-

    19. JR

      Glasses.

    20. JD

      ... don't put the glasses on.

    21. JR

      Yeah.

    22. JD

      Hold on.

    23. JR

      Yeah.

    24. JD

      Make your eyes muscle that thing. It's like when you wear fucking hearing aids.

    25. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    26. JD

      Like, your hearing gets lost. I-

    27. JR

      Well, they say with, with vision, like the problem is we're looking at things that are real close up all the time and your, your eyes are supposed to do a bunch of different things. They're supposed to look at stuff in the distance, they're supposed to look at things up close, and if you don't look at things in the distance all the time, you lose that ability.

    28. JD

      Well, I'm gonna be as honest as I can with you. I'm not trying to be cute here.

    29. JR

      Okay.

    30. JD

      I lost my eyesight when I stopped doing coke, 'cause when I was doing coke, my eyesight was on point, Joe.

  2. 15:0030:00

    Well, your girl told…

    1. JR

      But then, you know, you're sitting in that thing and if you do that on a regular basis, it gets... You get used to it. You get used to being uncomfortable, but God damn, you feel good. Like, your joints feel good. All the stiffness kind of feels like it goes away. Your mood feels better. You sleep better. Sauna's the motherfu-... If I had to pick one over the two, I don't know which one I'd pick, but I love the fact that I could do both of them. I think sauna I would pick 'cause there's more data. There's, there's a 20-year study out of Finland with sauna patients where they, um, they used the sauna four times a week for 20 years. And the, uh, depending about how many times a week they used it, they saw more improvement. But the people that used it four times a week saw a f-... I think it was a 40% decrease in all-cause mortality. A 40% decrease. Stroke, heart attack, cancer for the people that did that as opposed to the people that didn't do it.

    2. JD

      Well, your girl told me that if you do f-

    3. JR

      Rhonda?

    4. JD

      Yeah. I love her.

    5. JR

      Oh, she's the best.

    6. JD

      You know I love her.

    7. JR

      I love her too.

    8. JD

      Like, I watch-

    9. JR

      Shout out to Rhonda Patrick.

    10. JD

      I watch every video. I take what she tells me-

    11. JR

      Yeah.

    12. JD

      ... to heart. And I think she's so fucking sexy.

    13. JR

      (laughs)

    14. JD

      'Cause she's so fucking smart when she ta-... When she just goes on a tan, like (gasps) .

    15. JR

      (laughs)

    16. JD

      She's so fucking sexy.

    17. JR

      She's a genius.

    18. JD

      But she was saying that 51, 61 minutes a week in the sauna cuts your, uh, cardiac arrest rate by, like-

    19. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    20. JD

      ... fucking 60% or some shit.

    21. JR

      Well, I'll tell you what else it does, Jo- Joey. It makes your cardio better. Like, your cardio from working out, just sitting there, your heart rate gets jacked. So it's like a static form of cardio.

    22. JD

      When, before I go to the Tuesday and Thursday jujitsu, I go to the red light sauna.

    23. JR

      Mm.

    24. JD

      That's my cheat because that's a heavier class.

    25. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    26. JD

      And you gotta fucking be a little... So I always go in there in the morning, 34 minutes, come out, go right to jujitsu from there. Fuckin' love it.

    27. JR

      It's a good way to warm up before working out too.

    28. JD

      Yeah.

    29. JR

      Get in there for 10 minutes. Just sort of, like, get in there and stretch a little bit for 10 minutes.

    30. JD

      I do yoga in there. I do a bunch of-

  3. 30:0045:00

    He's always doing something,…

    1. JR

      smart. I mean, he's got a shit ton of businesses. He owns a bunch of businesses. He's always got something going on, you know. He stays active, you know. Guy ... There's, there's a bunch of guys that do a real good job of like using whatever fame they got from athletics and then just like do everything after. Like Shaq does everything. He's always doing commercials-

    2. JD

      He's always doing something, yeah.

    3. JR

      ... he's always doing something, you know. That's a, that's a big human being, dude. You put your hands, like you shake his hand, it's like ...

    4. JD

      That's a big dude.

    5. JR

      He's so big. His hands are like, it's like a fucking breakfast tray.

    6. JD

      I never said nothing to him.

    7. JR

      At Denny's.

    8. JD

      I never spoke to him. I saw him at the store a couple nights. He would come to the store after the games.

    9. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    10. JD

      For Fat Tuesday.

    11. JR

      (laughs)

    12. JD

      ... but I never really spoke to him or anything, I just saw him-

    13. JR

      I did Fear Factor with him.

    14. JD

      Oh, that's right.

    15. JR

      Yeah. Me and him, uh... It was hilarious. It was li- (laughs) it was like my... It was like a, a six-year-old and his dad. It was just like me standing next to him and he's so big. He's so gigantic.

    16. JD

      (coughs) So what else is happening, my brother?

    17. JR

      Everything's good, man.

    18. JD

      You know they have those banyas by me, right?

    19. JR

      Do they?

    20. JD

      They have a-

    21. JR

      The Russian ones?

    22. JD

      They have a-

    23. JR

      Ari goes to those in the city.

    24. JD

      They have a beautiful one in Freehold.

    25. JR

      Yeah?

    26. JD

      And the fucking place has a restaurant to die for.

    27. JR

      Really?

    28. JD

      Yeah. Like-

    29. JR

      Russian?

    30. JD

      Yeah, you could stay there all fucking day.

  4. 45:001:00:00

    Oh, yeah. …

    1. JD

      to us.

    2. JR

      Oh, yeah.

    3. JD

      That's what he brought... That little piece, that's what he brought back to-

    4. JR

      Yeah.

    5. JD

      That type of, you know. I still listen to a lot of Eat A Peach, Allman's, and I still listen to Live From The fucking Beacon, whatever the fuck theater they do all the time.

    6. JR

      You know, we have that Green Room playlist, Midnight Rider's the first song.

    7. JD

      That's the fucking... Yeah. That gets me-

    8. JR

      That's the first song. Sometimes I switch it up, sometimes it's I'm Your Boogie Man. That's another one. Depends on how we're feeling, Joey. Depends on how we're feeling.

    9. JD

      That's Casey and the Sunshine Band?

    10. JR

      Oh, yeah.

    11. JD

      You know that motherfucker.

    12. JR

      Give me, give me some I'm Your Boogie Man.

    13. JD

      Is he still touring?

    14. JR

      Give me some volume too. I don't know, man. But this is the song, when we would walk into the arena, when we do arenas, when we walk into an arena, like as we're walking into the green room, I like to play I'm Your Boogie Man 'cause that's one of those ones it just... Listen to this. (instrumental music plays) You're walking in, the joint gets fired up, the ice cubes go in the glass, the whiskey gets poured. Cheers. Music goes up. Everybody gets ready. Show's about to start.

    15. NA

      I'm your boogie man. That's what I am. I'm here to-

    16. JD

      Fuck.

    17. NA

      ... do whatever I can.

    18. JR

      Be it early morning, late afternoon.

    19. NA

      Or at midnight. It's never too soon. I wanna feel you up-

    20. JR

      That was back when you could use rainbows.

    21. NA

      ... and make you wish you were around. 'Cause I wanna do it all. Yeah.

    22. JD

      Oh, man.

    23. JR

      Yeah.

    24. JD

      You know who was here last night?

    25. JR

      Who?

    26. JD

      Motherfucker, nobody told me. Cool and the Gang was here last night.

    27. JR

      No way.

    28. JD

      At the movie fucking theater.

    29. JR

      No way.

    30. JD

      When I got to the hotel room I looked at the menu and it said, yeah, uh, entertainment for the month. Fucking...

  5. 1:00:001:09:56

    Yeah. …

    1. JD

      there all goddamn day.

    2. JR

      Yeah.

    3. JD

      Then come in at night. Don't fucking lurk all day.

    4. JR

      Yeah.

    5. JD

      We know. Fucking Goodfellas. They were following them all fucking day-

    6. JR

      Yeah.

    7. JD

      ... with a helicopter. Just bust them, cocksucker.

    8. JR

      Yeah. Well, they wanna terrorize you before they get you.

    9. JD

      Well, they wanna see what ... They want to see how you respond.

    10. JR

      Well, if you're cracked out, you're gonna go to try to get rid of something or you're gonna go to try to hide something.

    11. JD

      And they got your phone tapped. They got everything.

    12. JR

      Yeah. Yeah.

    13. JD

      So they put a cop car in front of your house to see where you react.

    14. JR

      Yeah.

    15. JD

      To see how your reaction would be-

    16. JR

      Yeah.

    17. JD

      ... for the day. And then you start cleaning the house. You know, you call people, get everything outta your house, whatever the fuck it is.

    18. JR

      Yeah.

    19. JD

      And then they come in and, you know. But it's a different world out there now. So-

    20. JR

      Mm-hmm.

    21. JD

      I don't know nothing about that fucking world now.

    22. JR

      Yeah. It's a different world.

    23. JD

      And I don't wanna know.

    24. JR

      Yeah.

    25. JD

      'Cause now they'll shoot you just for being there. And that is, you know-

    26. JR

      It's a different world in terms of law enforcement too. Yeah. People are getting out of jail like that now. (snaps fingers)

    27. JD

      And they still won't drop my warrant in fucking Seattle.

    28. JR

      Ugh, uh, you can't even get arrested in Seattle for what you did.

    29. JD

      You can't-

    30. JR

      You wouldn't even have a record.
