Notable quotes
“TPN is doing quite well, and the group here is having fun, and I think they've built friendships out of TPN because of it. So mission success.”
“We weren't planning on running it as a business. This was something that we were doing because we were having fun and we thought that we could also help people and we would work together with people that we might not have been able to do so in the past.”
“It seems to me that it would take less effort, okay, for this person to be the supportive person that he claims to be versus working so hard behind the scenes to essentially create roadblocks when somebody starts to get recognition for their efforts.”
“I've never done anything just to try to cause harm. I don't care. I always tell people that I wouldn't do shit like that to my worst enemy in life. It's not humane. It's not a cool thing to do.”
“I never received an apology, whether it be personal or public, for an attempt at a character assassination from all of us. And that's why, ultimately, I just kind of... it's like I'm not motivated to work with that individual ever again.”
“For sure it did. You know that it did. I know that it did. Your prior guests with Greg Bone and Jason Fowler expressed a lot of the same sentiments... I don't know that I've ever felt so disappointed and stressed out over some false narratives that were being created at the time.”
“This ring makes me feel horrible because when I wake up in the morning and I check my app, basically it says, You slept ridiculously bad last night. You should probably not try to move today so that you can recover. And it just gets me demotivated right off the bat.”
