Speaker 1:

What is up, everyone? This is Coach Austin here coming to you with the Nerd Out and Workout podcast, where we nerd out, work out and podcast and I am with my co-host, kevin Arap Arapagon.

Speaker 3:

What's up, guys?

Speaker 2:

And today we're going to be talking about THC versus shrooms.

Speaker 3:

And I'm not talking about silo-sibin.

Speaker 1:

I'm talking about the shroom supplementation.

Speaker 3:

Who's Regis Philbin?

Speaker 1:

What.

Speaker 3:

What'd you just say?

Speaker 1:

Silo-sibin. Silo-sibin.

Speaker 3:

Sounds like my seventh grade crush.

Speaker 1:

You had a crush on a shroom.

Speaker 3:

Just the way you're saying. The name is very different.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, well, one of the reasons why we're kind of doing this episode. We're kind of diving into, because Edibles, especially in the state of California, you can buy Edibles anywhere now THC. All that fun stuff, but one of the biggest things that I'm seeing personally from my own perspective is the uptick of people talking about what was it? The mushroom supplementation of lines. I mean supplements that come from shrooms like the plant, not so much like the psychedelics or psychoactive stuff.

Speaker 1:

I mean that one. Yeah, in Oregon we're talking about that, how they have like retreats Like air B and Bs and stuff. That one we can have. We can dedicate a whole episode on it. We should do an episode on it and see what happens Live from Portland Oregon.

Speaker 3:

Live from Portland Oregon the Nerd Hour Count podcast.

Speaker 2:

The.

Speaker 1:

Nerd Hour Count podcast. But yeah, so we would, we would. We want to kind of dive into that, because we want to kind of go into, like, what is the difference between THC and supplementing with these popular mushroom supplements now that are available over the counter and you can buy it on Amazon, and how it affects your fitness journey and should you take it? Or what's your experience and I'm sure there's a lot more people out there who have way more experience in the THC aspect of it but coming from the perspective of a strength coach and a person who leads clients to make better decisions for their health and move forward and level up in life, I feel like we should just dive into this.

Speaker 3:

Has it all?

Speaker 1:

Have you done THC before?

Speaker 3:

Yes.

Speaker 1:

And what's your experience with it, Kevin?

Speaker 3:

I still do, I still do.

Speaker 1:

Yes, I won't lie as I do, I do.

Speaker 3:

But when I'm not holding junior.

Speaker 3:

But my experience is, you know the typical stuff. You know like I get like a sense of calming my body. You know I get the munchies, you know. But I have a theory on the munchie theory also, because I know a lot of people who do THC that don't get the munchies Really. I mean that they don't crave like I need some snackies. You know stuff like that. I think it's in your head. I really think it's like how you train your body, just like weight training. Oh, I'm going to do I'm going to lift weights and we get heavier weights and they're going to become lighter. Right, it's just a routine, it just becomes normal. So when you do THC whether it's, you know in what form you take it in and it's like, oh, I'm feeling it and I'm like I'm kind of hungry, I'm going to eat. You're basically training your body that every time you have this, you're going to have to have that. You know what I'm trying to say. Like, if you're going to have the THC, you're eventually going to have to eat some food.

Speaker 1:

Isn't there like a trigger effect that makes you crave it, though In? Your head, I think there is, but in your head, but like more, like there's a chemical reaction happening in your but at the same time.

Speaker 3:

I think if you're just used to it, you're going to do it just from habit. You know what I mean, because there have been times where I'm like, oh, I'm just because I usually take THC. When I in my restaurant days it was mainly to go to sleep, because we get out like one AM and sometimes we got to be back at nine and you're just up still because you had the rush of service. You know, you just cleaned up adrenaline's up.

Speaker 3:

So what are you going to do? You're going to go drink yourself to sleep? You know no, because one crazy hangover. You know you're going to be late, you know. So one thing I used to do I used to take THC to help go to bed, just as though I could go to sleep right away and come back refreshed. You know, and there, you know, there's times where I take it. I'm like oh man, I need a cheeseburger.

Speaker 3:

You know, but you know, I just think it's, it's all also part in your mental too. I think that I know there is a feeling of hunger, but I don't, like I said, it's a chemical reaction. It's not necessary like what's going on, like what you really need you know. So interesting. But you know, at my peak though, I was really also doing a lot of CBD, Like you know.

Speaker 1:

so concentrates like dabbing with like, Is it the one where you drop it under your tongue?

Speaker 3:

No, so those are dropped, Like I've tried those drops where you put on your tongue and I didn't really feel any effects. Dabbings like you're using a concentrate of THC that you have to heat up like your, your vessel sounds really bad.

Speaker 3:

What, yeah, it's like you know, like, yeah, you got to heat up, like the container where you put the wax the weed wax, you know, and the vessel, but there's ones that are pure CBD and that stuff really like when I would just add that to whatever I was taking, I definitely felt a calming go through my body even more, which is great, because sometimes you don't want the Effects of THC, but there's a lot of products on the market that claim to be see just CBD and they're not, and they don't do anything.

Speaker 1:

Like.

Speaker 3:

I there's just like this, like lotion that I used to buy from, like sprouts that like yeah like of course they're like, oh, they're CBD, but there's like point zero, one percent of the whole bottle.

Speaker 1:

I got a like rub this whole bottle.

Speaker 3:

Just to not feel a little bit. You know so you know there's a lot of misleading products, stuff like that, but I'm a believer in CBD. If you get the right product of CBD it can really Bring down pain and stuff like that.

Speaker 1:

So you would do CBD versus THC.

Speaker 3:

That's a tough call because I do like how I feel on THC at the same time. Yeah but I mean, if it's available and it's and it works properly, then I'm down for a little CBD action, you know. So I'm just not into the edibles. Why? Just because I don't know when they hit.

Speaker 1:

Probably like within 90 minutes to five hours.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, but then there's between there, there's times where I'm just like I don't feel it, and then I take another and two, three, and then all of a sudden, You're doing something and then it's like, and I'm gone. Yeah, like I'm gone and now I'm on Mars, yeah, so as I prefer, you know, the, the vape, or in a Erb form, you know I mean. So, yeah, but that's just me.

Speaker 1:

Have you ever done it while you're working out?

Speaker 3:

No, because I know how I I can be like I just I don't know lethargic or anything, but I just I Just don't feel comfortable being out and about doing it. Like I've known people who can work on it and be that are actually better working when they're on it, on THC, when they're not, it's just they're like different strains. Yeah, I mean there's like, like, like we're talking about indica sativa, that's you like?

Speaker 1:

indica is more of like indica like in the couch Indo.

Speaker 3:

You're indoors? No, yeah, and it's a TV, is more like a, like a mind high, you know yeah and yeah, I guess so. But this there's just people who are very tolerant. I've been doing it for years that take indica and it's just. It just gets them to like a nice Point where they can. They're fully functional, you know.

Speaker 1:

But I'm not one of them.

Speaker 3:

I I strictly use it to go to bed.

Speaker 1:

So you take what? Five milligrams 10?

Speaker 3:

I Smoke a bowl. Oh, I don't know like I. Like I said, I don't do the edibles because I don't know the time release it. I I more of a smoke if version.

Speaker 1:

I even smoke if. I like the edible stuff.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, cleaner to. So smoke, no, like with edibles, is it? Well, I mean, like you know, there's no smell, let's clean up, you know. So it was cleaner set up, you know. But just you know I, you know I actually haven't done it much since, just because I don't have crazy hours anymore, so I'm very low to see now.

Speaker 1:

So have you now? Have you ever have you? Do you know what I'm talking about? With the time of the mushroom supplements that people have been Like the lion's mane.

Speaker 3:

Is this? Is this similar to how like they sell like super beats?

Speaker 1:

I. Feel like it's trending in that area because it sounds like.

Speaker 3:

It's like this miracle thing we're like we made. We took your favorite vegetable beats and we concentrated times a hundred into a chewable. Now it's like super good for your blood pressure heart.

Speaker 1:

I feel like, cuz I've been hearing a lot of hyper on lion's mane specifically. Well, is that a?

Speaker 3:

strain of mushroom.

Speaker 1:

It's like a mushroom. It's a mushroom supplement. Yeah, I think it's from yeah, it's supposedly lion's mane is believed to stimulate the production of nerve growth factor, hmm, which is vital for the growth and maintenance and survival of certain neurons, neurons in your head. Uh I, what was it? Lines main contains beta glue cans, which are known for their immune boosting properties. Now, I'm not a fucking doctor, I'm not a retrosheditition, I'm just going off.

Speaker 3:

So I just googled lines mains mushroom, sure yeah, google the shit after that. Third thing that came up it's sponsored. It's mud water. I've seen this commercial. Like I drink my water it looks like dirt. My friends say what are you drinking? Like you know all that stuff and one of the I guess one of the main ingredients is the mushroom aspect of it. Interesting.

Speaker 1:

It's. It's I mean they're really because one of the health benefits potentially studies they always study suggests is may support brain health, possibly improving memory and focus. Possibly possibly mood regulations. Some research indicates potential benefits for anxiety and depression. Right Nervous system potential to support nerve regeneration after injuries. Interesting Digestive health traditional use for reducing inflammation in the digestive tract.

Speaker 3:

So, basically, this is a super. It's a super miracle.

Speaker 1:

Supposedly thing, and the reason why I'm not. I'm not comparing. I'm not comparing actual shrooms like cell cibbon and like the stuff where you like versus THC, because I just feel like it's already kind of known.

Speaker 3:

THC is like everyone knows.

Speaker 1:

Everyone knows THC Everyone knows, everyone knows the effects.

Speaker 3:

You.

Speaker 1:

I mean just by you telling me exactly what you feel, what happens when you take this. You know this supplement.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

It's an. It's an ergonogenic. We understand that. It has a lot of research under it. I mean it has like legal battles and all that stuff, but people swear by whether you smoke it, you eat it, you drink it. It's a thing, now it's a multi.

Speaker 3:

It's an everyday thing and everything.

Speaker 1:

We understand that it works, because we feel it, yeah, and it helps, it helps.

Speaker 3:

It's funny you say that because, like I said, everyone knows it when you wouldn't like five years ago going to the Spensaries, you know it's a typical 24 year old, 21 year old kind of college kid goofing off. At now. It's like you see, you see grandpa, grandma grandpa fucking on Jim, on Janie, like you're, like we're using on Jemima. No, no, no, no, no, no. I meant to say on something and then, like Uncle Jim, I just heard you. You know, I did not say that and not say that.

Speaker 1:

But you know something wrong. I like it. I like it. That's a good serum, but you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3:

But yeah, it's like you said. It's totally different now. It's widely accepted. Now I don't want to say widely accepted, but it's more accepted.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

As a pain tolerance.

Speaker 1:

You know the reason why I wanted to draw this comparison is because and I've been trying, I've been trying out lines of me because I'm oh, you tried it.

Speaker 1:

I've been trying it out, I've been putting my coffee, I have the, I have the pills, I have like the coffee supplement. It's like, if you're trying to, can I'm trying to reduce my caffeine intake? Yeah, good, look, new dad. Yeah, new dad. That that is stupid, but I mean I could, maybe. I could maybe say maybe, house, but I maybe, might feel like my anxiety has been kind of more calmer throughout the Weeks that I've been taking it. But I've also been going through my therapy and my therapy is helping my anxiety yeah.

Speaker 1:

But I mean, that's the thing, like I could tell you for sure. Oh yeah, thc makes me feel like this.

Speaker 3:

Right.

Speaker 1:

CBD makes me feel like that. For sure, I know how much I'm going to. I know what it's going to do with these other. So, like the lines, like you're talking about comparing it to, like super beats.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, who's doing the studies. You know what I mean. That's like study shown. Study show that it brings down heart rate. It's like who, who where, FDA, no, some, some dude in like freaking Atlanta Georgia and like in a lab. This is lines mean that that's comparing line water. Yeah, what else?

Speaker 1:

did that thing say? What did it say about mud water?

Speaker 3:

I mean, it's just a. It's just a promotion for mud water, Like, hey, buy mud water. You know what I mean. How much are these selling it for? Oh, let me see here.

Speaker 1:

How much are they selling a lion's mane supplement and what look? Look, I'm still taking it because I'm just very curious to see if it actually do anything in the amount of time that I'm taking it. But as you can tell by my tone, right?

Speaker 3:

You're kind of like, just how much are they?

Speaker 1:

fucking, how much are they selling?

Speaker 3:

I'm sure they're selling for some godly amount because it's like so a basic morning ritual starter kit from mud water is $40. Okay, and you get the. What is it? What is that? How many, how many? Let me see I've got it right here 30 servings, 30 servings, 30 servings. A free USB rechargeable frother, free guidebook, free stickers, free samples, and this is on, and when you purchase, you're on a subscription basis. I mean, that's what.

Speaker 1:

Byzanto unemployed reduce FCS competition.

Speaker 3:

I Don't know what I'm seeing here, like the ones from like Amazon and shit. They're like hemp. No, we'd have to go to dispensary. All right, let's get in the car. But I think they're like 20 bucks. 15 bucks is depending on what brand you're getting nowadays for something we know for sure something that's gonna work, you know. But my biggest thing about these miracle things is like, how do you know what's gonna work? Like you said, we know what we feel on T8, cnc, bd, but, lion's mane, is it this new like?

Speaker 1:

I feel like it's like a this new thing, the new. Thing mushrooms are thing.

Speaker 3:

Oh, it's like an uptick first is like acai berries bro.

Speaker 1:

Oh dude, I remember the hype of acai berries.

Speaker 3:

Speaker 1:

What's up?

Speaker 3:

I'm on ginger.

Speaker 1:

I mean ginger Like ginger.

Speaker 3:

Okay, let me tell you. So I'm in the morning I take, I drink a ginger tea.

Speaker 3:

Okay and then so me and my parents would make an extra. Like we make a tea For we. So we get a bunch of ginger from Costco, peel it and then cut it and then we put in water and we steep it, okay, and then my mom bought this other Ginger tea that you mix with water, oh, and we combine those together, oh, like a super ginger. It's like super ginger. He like it's super, is like what is so spicy. And my dad's like this is really good for you. I'm like, okay, I'll try it. Why is it good for you? Because it's good for high blood pressure, lowering your sugar.

Speaker 1:

I.

Speaker 3:

Don't know, I haven't been to the doctor yet. So and it's funny because he said it's good, right, because he read the studies and stuff like that, like sure you know, and then he'll just try it and like it's a, so it's so sweet. He's like you drink alcohol, why can't you drink this? And I'm like, oh shit, I'll do it, I'll do it. Another thing we're doing at night, like not before I go to bed, but when I get home from work I eat a teaspoon of raw ginger.

Speaker 3:

Yo kind of like pills like. So we take the ginger, we cut them up to little squares, little mince, and we take a little half teaspoon ish Put it on your tongue and you just drink water like you're taking pills and it's supposed to help your like a mute, not your mrs, like your digestive tract. It kind of like. I won't lie, I believe ginger does that it kind of helps you go.

Speaker 3:

I'm going trust and I even told my dad was I was like I need to calm down a little bit, because when I take that shit at night, I'm good, I take one at night and then in the morning like I'm, I am emptying out, but I am, I'm just, I'm still going every other hour.

Speaker 1:

Oh, and there's a point where it's like.

Speaker 3:

It's like I just too much. I'm gonna dial it back a little because I can't be going to the bathroom at work every other hour like I was like that. It's strong, don't get me wrong. I think it's a very viable.

Speaker 1:

It's a diuretic.

Speaker 3:

No, it's just. It's supposed to promote good gut health and stuff like that. You know.

Speaker 1:

It's not. What do they call it laxative?

Speaker 3:

It's a laxative, it's a natural, I don't know that like coconut.

Speaker 1:

If you're going like every fucking hour dude.

Speaker 3:

I just think the amount I'm taking is insane.

Speaker 1:

That's why cuz took a teaspoon of it like you're going every hour. It's not a full teaspoon.

Speaker 3:

It's like everyone has different teaspoons and you know we're not what no, a teaspoon? But you know we're taking it and it's working, so it's just like it's what you believe, you know. And then what?

Speaker 1:

do you mean it's what you believe? Like they're shitting every hour?

Speaker 3:

No like no, like no, I'm talking about the other benefits. Oh, okay. Oh, it's good for your you know your high blood pressure. It's good for your sugar bringing all that stuff down like okay, that one. Okay, tbd, you know it's like you're shitting. I'm definitely shitting.

Speaker 1:

Okay, so it works for that it works for that.

Speaker 3:

But like, like I said, like, with this, all this, what's this called with the lion's mane mushroom, like it's, if it works for you, it's sure, but you are you sure that's what's doing it, you know, because you might just be eating better you know you might, yeah, yeah you know what take? Take mud water breakfast, let's you dinner, and let's see what happens For 10, for 10 days, and see, let's see what happens or just not eat for 10 days, you know. So that's what I'm saying, like that's why I think there's no magic pill, there's no magic like Fat burner.

Speaker 3:

That that they say like this targets the tough stuff in the stomach that won't get off. Like how show me.

Speaker 1:

There's definitely some magic Drugs is there, oh yeah.

Speaker 3:

Oh yeah, what really?

Speaker 1:

like you know, trend ball acid Drugs, steroids.

Speaker 3:

Oh, sir, you lose, way on steroids.

Speaker 1:

You can oh.

Speaker 3:

Oh well, I thought you're talking about, like ozempic or something like that, what you never heard of ozempic. No that so ozempic is a how do you spell that? Ozempic, ozempic, oz, empic, ozempic. So it's a Injection that's supposed to be for diabetes? Oh, but the side effect is weight loss. Oh, so there's a lot of Celebrities who are using this for weight loss. Oh, and there was an after a time here in America when it was very hard to get because all the celebrities were buying it up.

Speaker 2:

Oh, wow.

Speaker 3:

It was really hard to get and now. So that's like something people use to lose weight as a side effect, because one side effect is the weight loss, you know. So Okay. Yeah, so that's like drugs, you know, but so that's, that's like actual facts, that's something we know that works. You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 1:

That's crazy. How does it? What's the mechanism? It just reduces your blood sugar, or?

Speaker 3:

I don't know. It's supposed to be what it's supposed to do, or something.

Speaker 1:

Injection that helps lower blood sugar by helping the pancreas make more insulin.

Speaker 3:

Yeah and then, but the side effect is weight loss.

Speaker 1:

It is not approved for weight loss, but some physicians prescribe it to be used for weight loss.

Speaker 3:

But again, that's something that's been measured, that's been studied, and we know how it affects people's bodies.

Speaker 1:

It works by mimicking a naturally occurring hormone. As those hormone levels rise and molecules go to your brain telling it you're full.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

It also slows digestion by increasing the time it takes for food to leave the body.

Speaker 3:

I've heard. I've heard horror stories of a zempic where some women couldn't shit for like three days. Jesus, Because it's like I forget what it's called, it's like it freezes up your bowels basically oh, no, yeah.

Speaker 2:

So Does it hurt?

Speaker 3:

I guess it has to, but like that's. That's why you know people using it for the wrong reasons shouldn't be using it. You know what I mean.

Speaker 1:

It's like I haven't shit for three days. My asshole's been so close but I look amazing. Only until after I shit that. It's not like death in the toilet.

Speaker 3:

I would. I would be surprised, but, like I said, like you said, like there are things out there that are measured and you know, properly studied and you could see the results, you know, whereas stuff like this, just claiming it does things you know and who knows, maybe it does work. But like, like, like we've said in other episodes before, that everyone's different, everyone's different, everyone reacts, you know, to to different things. You know, so you don't know if it's going to work or even be effective.

Speaker 1:

Exactly so.

Speaker 3:

I wouldn't put all my eggs in my basket in this one, you know, in your basket In any basket you know what I mean, because that's just not the way. That is not the way.

Speaker 1:

That is not the way.

Speaker 3:

Super beats, though.

Speaker 1:

Super beats is something I want to try, because I've been seeing that infomercial all the time and I'm just like I think just, I think just during her pregnancy, what was like on a beat phase where she's like we got to drink beats or like beet juice. So I was like why?

Speaker 3:

My parents were on a beet juice for a long time too, and I think their piss was turning red.

Speaker 1:

Dude, that's what I was saying Like yo, my shit's turning red. Yeah so it's like wait what's going on?

Speaker 3:

And this is my biggest thing I forgot who else I was telling this to but like isn't, doesn't our body reacts things a certain way? Right? And then don't you lose, like efficiency, if you do it too much, right?

Speaker 1:

What do you mean?

Speaker 3:

Like I can't explain. Like, okay, we're playing moral combat, right, you do a 10 hit combo and you're doing 100, 100, let's say 150 damage, right, but once you go over 10 hits you don't do as much damage. You know, I'm saying, ah, like it's, yeah, you're doing a lot of it, but in the long run it's not doing as much as it was as it was when you do a smaller amount. You know I'm trying to say. I don't know what that term is called like. I Don't know what it's called like. It's just.

Speaker 3:

Like like, return on investment or something like I don't know, like I don't know, like your ROI after the 10th You're not as much as like you know.

Speaker 1:

So that's why some people only do you're still invested the same amount of energy and not getting. But you're not getting as much back, as much back as so where before I would do more, so why would you keep smashing that like button?

Speaker 3:

But, yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, that's what I'm saying. Like, that's why, like, people do this mud water on, so like, even if it does work, and then you just keep doing it, your body might be cut not resistant, but you're gonna need more, more tolerance, tolerance.

Speaker 1:

Drug tolerance.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, drug tolerance, that's a, that's a real thing.

Speaker 1:

That's definitely real thing. Have you watched limitless dude?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you make now. I mean you should watch it, is he? Does he make an appearance as the same character? Yeah, oh.

Speaker 3:

So I'll just set up the scene like he's giving a speech and someone tries to shoot at him and he's like and he's on NZT still right.

Speaker 1:

Well, cuz he's naturally, he naturally has it now right.

Speaker 3:

No, he has a. He he got you know. At the end of the movie he filtered all the bad shit out right, yeah, but like it's, like it naturally makes it in his made it nobody said in a way that he has it now or something like well. He's on it. Sure, he's smart all the time and he was like. He was like talking about how you know he was thinking about the headlines if he got shot while he was giving his speech.

Speaker 3:

So he's like if I get shot, like if I'm dead. You know, blah, blah, blah. He's like what? What if it just grazed me and he thought about the headlines? I'm gonna get 10% in the race in the in the polls. So as he's talking, he does like, he like leans to his right and then the bullet literally grazes him on the arm. I'm pretty sure that's from the. I think that's the first episode, but you should watch it. It's worth. It's worth it on.
