00:00You look so good.
00:03Why thank you. I almost didn't recognize you.
00:05Well, that's not good.
00:08How did you lose so much?
00:12It's over a period of many years.
00:15Everything that anyone could ever try.
00:18From therapy, to drugs, to surgery, to radiation, to being taken by aliens.
00:30Every single one of them. And one of them worked.
00:34What's that?
00:35I don't know.
00:36Oh, right. Are you doing it like the old-fashioned way? Is that effective?
00:41What do you mean? Like not eating? Yes, that does work.
00:44And going to the gym regularly?
00:46Oh, no. I was. But then somebody like you caught me coming out of a place.
00:52Oh, that embarrassed you?
00:54It shouldn't. I mean, if I'm working out, it's not embarrassing.
00:57But I had resting bitch face when I came out of work.
01:00You know, I wasn't like...
01:01That's funny. How much weight would you say you've lost from like max to now?
01:067,000 pounds.
01:07Wow, not bad.
01:08I lose 10, I gain 50, I lose 100, I gain 12.
01:12Right. But you've lost quite a lot.
01:14Yeah.
01:15That's amazing.
01:16From like Jurassic Park to now, it's about 110 pounds.
01:21Incredible. Is it affecting the sort of like gigs you get?
01:26Yes. But, you know...
01:28In a good way or a bad way?
01:29Well, in a bad way. But it takes time.
01:31It takes time for people to accept you as you are.
01:34And they find out whether or not you can still do things without being fat.
01:38That is so interesting. So, personally, it could be better.
01:41But professionally, it's a bit of a negative.
01:43Well, no. It's just what it is.
01:46Hmm.
01:47You know.
01:48That is so interesting.
01:49You just have to accept the fact that you can't sell something that you're not.
01:53Give a skinny guy a shot, man. Give a skinny guy a shot.
01:56Yeah.
01:57Hey, Wayne. Thank you, bro.
01:58That was so nice to see you.
01:59Thank you so much. Cheers.
