We cover:

🙏 How it all started

– JD's wife relapsed six months after they got married a rough patch that changed everything

– A phone call from a man in AA stopped JD from making a decision he would have regretted forever

– To support his wife, JD started attending a Monday night AA meeting and that's where he met Will's sponsor

– Will had just gotten out of jail after a fentanyl overdose got a sponsor, started going to meetings

– Will's sponsor brought him to JD's house for a Wednesday night book study at 6PM

– Two guys became three, then five, then COVID hit and meetings shut down

– JD's living room turned into a 70+ person AA meeting every Wednesday night

– Without that relapse, without that meeting none of this exists

💪 How fitness connected them

– Both were deep into health, supplements, and fitness

– After meetings they'd talk for hours about compounds, diets, what was working

– Will was always running something JD was always curious about it

– That passion for health was the bridge from friendship to business

🎙️ How the podcast happened

– JD started a fitness channel and wanted to interview Will in his garage first video was on HGH and MK-677

– Second video in the backyard. Third on the beach in Huntington Beach but nobody could hear it

– Their editor suggested making it a podcast it just worked

– Hit 100,000 viewers and neither of them knew what that meant

– Now at 600,000+ monthly viewers still growing

🏢 How the company started

– JD was selling a carnivore diet plan and people wanted the supplements he used

– Will was supplying him JD doubled the price and sold them

– Will needed to raise prices they decided to just partner up

– Flew to Vegas for a business conference, sat down for 10 minutes and recorded a video on a compound that was the first real episode

– Became 50/50 partners neither wanted to fight over percentages

– Started in a garage, moved to a small office in Huntington Beach, now 15+ employees

🔑 Why it works

– Total opposites JD is the face, the storyteller, the social media guy. Will is the builder, researcher, and operational engine

– What JD loves most: the podcast. What Will loves least: the podcast. Perfect.

– Neither can do what the other does they need each other and they both know it

– No ego, no greed, no micromanaging just trust and mutual respect
