Hey, it's Ryan Reynolds here for Mint Mobile.

**Kyle Thompson** (0:01)
Now, I was looking for fun ways to tell you that Mint's offer of unlimited premium wireless for $15 a month is back. So I thought it would be fun if we made $15 bills.

**David Pollack** (0:12)
But it turns out that's very illegal. So there goes my big idea for the commercial. Give it a try at mintmobile.com/switch.

**SPEAKER_1** (0:21)
Up from payment of $45 for three months, $90 for six months or $180 for 12 month plan required, $15 per month equivalent, taxes and fees extra, initial plan term only, greater than 50 gigabytes may slow when network is busy, and you may not be able to see terms.

Let's be honest. Most men drift. We wake up, we scroll, we work and then we just rinse and repeat. And we know we're softer than we should be. That's why I built the 31 Day Resilience Reset. This is not a devotional. It is a field manual for men ready to stop drifting and start fighting back. So for 31 days, you'll train your spirit, mind and body with scripture, prayer and daily challenges that forge real resilience. Go to www.Undaunted.Life.31Days to download this resource for free. That's Undaunted.Life.31Days.
Start your reset today.
This is Undaunted Life, A Man's Podcast. I'm your host, Kyle Thompson. Let's get into it. Mr. Pollack, you made it to the studio. First question, why are you the way that you are? Because from the moment we had... Am I great? Is that what you're talking about? My exact words are why are you the way that you are? Because from the moment we saw each other yesterday, we were doing that kind of man communicates love to another man thing. And so we've just been tearing each other down since yesterday. My wife was just in here and she was appalled at the scene.

**SPEAKER_1** (2:15)
She's like, what exactly is going on?

**David Pollack** (2:17)
The wives don't understand and the women don't understand the locker room talk. When we're okay with it, it's just like when you play sports. We could fight and we could leave the practice field and be like, hey dude, still love you. Like it's all good. Women are like, no, no, no, you can't talk to me like that. What are you doing?

**SPEAKER_4** (2:31)
Well, because I tried to explain to her one time because like my best man and my wedding and all that, he and I fist fought in high school, right? And then she's like, well, how did y'all become friends? I'm like, no, no, no, we were friends.
And then we fought, which is just like a friend thing. And then whenever you fight someone, like you kind of figure out a little bit about who they are. Cause like somebody wins the fight or it gets broken up beforehand or something like that. It's like, no, at some point, you kind of just realize what this person's about.

**David Pollack** (2:55)
How big was he by the way?

**SPEAKER_4** (2:57)
He was way bigger than me.

**David Pollack** (2:58)
He was a big boy.

**SPEAKER_4** (2:58)
But yeah. And so, but it was just kind of one of those things where it's, and same thing when you see these guys getting like fights during like, you know, off season or OTAs or something like that, or like whenever you see.

**David Pollack** (3:09)
It's called a good practice.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:10)
Well, okay, so I-

**David Pollack** (3:11)
Coaches love that by the way. I'm a high school football coach right now. And I love when my kids fight. I absolutely love it. I support it a hundred percent.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:18)
Okay. So tell me a little bit more about that, is like obviously you don't want anyone getting hurt in a fight because it's the funniest thing in the world when they start swinging on a dude wearing a helmet. It's like, all right, you know.

**David Pollack** (3:26)
I did that too.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:27)
Football players are kind of dumb. And so, you know.

**David Pollack** (3:29)
Yeah, I got that. Yeah.

**SPEAKER_4** (3:30)
Yeah, it's okay.
I didn't know if you caught it because it was just, you know, sometimes it like, you know, you have to delay. It takes a second. No, but like in all seriousness, like as a coach, like there are some coaches that are like conflict diverse. They don't want conflict with the players. They don't want conflict amongst the players. Everything they're trying to do is like kumbaya's in crap. But like that's not, it's not real life for one, like a lot of coaches don't prefer that.
