E43 DOPESICK | WW3

We go over Julio’s recent trip to Ecuador, how covid has affected the country, and his personal experiences with being back at home. After we discuss the Ukraine and Russia going to war, and what should America do and discuss the far right nazi group Azov in Ukraine and how they have become part of the army. 

We have discussed when to maintain, today we go over when to “bulk”. Social media has trends of bulking that can create an unrealistic expectation for putting on healthy weight with a plan. Yeufre shares his journey on bulking, how his diet has changed, and how his exercises are complementing his caloric surplus. 

Today we discuss the weird case of Shauna Rae, a 22 year old woman stuck in a 8yr old body and the double standard of a similar case where the man is stuck in a 8yr old body. This leads into the existential crisis of the day where we discuss if everyone should go to college, including but not limited to our own kids.
