themselves exempt from IRS scrutiny.
Tyler's outrage builds as he exposesthe rigged game where Martha Stewart
gets prison but Congress gets RICHER...
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: I think you make the, probably the (00:16):
undefined
best point of this whole podcast sofar is that the president is maybe
gonna change your life a percentageor two if you're in the high end.
Who's the presidentfor the average person.
Now, I'm not saying if maybe you're afringe person out here and they made
a law that shuts down your business.
I'm not saying that never happens, right?
For 98% of us that are in the UnitedStates, of the 360 million people, your
(00:41):
daily actions and habits and your mindsetand what you do every day is gonna affect
your life more than whoever sits in theOval Office, whoever represents you,
Jerremy (00:51):
Come on.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (00:52):
Yeah, man if Kamala Harris is president right
now, you know what I'd be doing right now?
Jerremy (00:56):
Thing you're doing.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: the same thing with Brandon. (00:57):
undefined
It, it really is man.
And maybe certain policiesmight shift this way.
Might be paying a little moretaxes over here, or maybe I'd be
doing a little better over here.
I don't know.
Who knows the dominoeffect of all this stuff.
But I think it's important tosay and to tell my daughter
and to even tell yourself.
It doesn't matter.
At the end of the day, you should govote because you have that, right.
(01:18):
People have fought in blood forthat, but at the end of the day, also
you should root for whoever wins.
I think this is like a sicknessand a really weird thing, man.
And it happens on both sides.
Like I, I don't wanna, we don't need toget in the weeds, but I think everybody
saw Joe Biden wasn't really with ittowards the end, and man, I mean there
was people just saying hope the guy dies.
(01:38):
I hope his son dies.
I hope, and then you see with Trump, likehe almost gets shot in the face and people
are like, oh, I wish he just didn't miss.
And it's man, I feel like if you'recoming from that spot in your heart,
where you're gonna operate from everyday, I don't care who the president
is, you're not gonna be successful.
You're gonna, you're poisoned.
if you let politics capture you inthat way where you're like wishing
(01:59):
harm to other human beings and youhate 'em so much that you'll again.
That's my test.
If you're smart, if you hate Trump,but you can't admit he did a couple
things Well, or you hate Biden, butyou can't admit he did a couple things.
You're just not that smart.
And if he's driving the ship, I'mnot rooting for the ship to sink
'cause we're all on the ship,
Jerremy (02:17):
we're all on the ship.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: But it seems like we have a, at least (02:19):
undefined
a quarter, a third of the population.
It's like that now.
And I think if you're in that camp andyou're listening to that, I would just
challenge you to peel that back and saymaybe you don't like Trump as a person,
maybe I don't certainly agree witha lot of the things he says or does.
It's like he'll attack RosieO'Donnell at 3:00 AM on Twitter.
I just, I don't know why, like you'rethe most powerful guy in the world.
(02:40):
Like I probably wouldn't choose to do thator some of the policies or things he says.
But at the same time, man, how doesthat really affect my life today?
I can still go to the gym,I can still work hard.
I can still love my kids.
I can still do all those things.
You have to acknowledge that yourlife is a sum of your decisions.
That's the number one thing.
Whoever's in office, they'regonna do what they're gonna do.
(03:02):
And I'm not saying to just completelyignore it, but I am saying to your
point too, Jerremy, if you just sitthere and focus on everything Trump
does and how much you hate it, dude,you're not gonna live a good life.
to be honest, we've never had a timewhere 2025, almost 2026 now, where
there's endless resources to learn.
Gain knowledge and gain money and gain,like it's, if you would've told somebody
(03:22):
a couple hundred years ago, you could justhave access to the smartest people in the
world for free, and you can learn from it.
But yet many people will spend a fewhours a day complaining about politics
or whining about this or that when theycould just a hundred x of their life by
just learning new skill sets and goingand implementing those from smart people
and their health and fixing some oftheir relationships and things like that.
(03:45):
And so that's a harder thing to do.
It's much easier to just whineabout if only this person was
president, my life would be better.
But where does that get you?
And I
Jerremy (03:54):
Right.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: comes back to that personal (03:55):
undefined
responsibility and ownership of your life.
It doesn't matter who the president isfor me, my family's gonna be successful.
I would guarantee both ofyou men are in the same boat.
Doesn't really matter, man,whoever gets, if it's JD Vance,
Gavin Newsom, name, a name.
We will all find a way to be healthy,wealthy, thriving, doing well, because
that's who we're, that's what, that'sthe decisions we're gonna make, right?
(04:17):
And I think if more peopleapproach life like that would
actually be the best thing ever.
For families, for economies,for, like, how can I be the
best husband, the best dad?
How can I make more money?
How can I be healthier?
How can I impact my community?
How can I do these if I put alot of, that's why I put 99%
of my energy into those things.
Then sure, I'll put a percent or twointo who I'm gonna vote for with the
(04:39):
acknowledgement that it's probablynot gonna change my life that much.
Dave (04:42):
So given your large community, hundreds of thousands of people
have sought you out and havechanged their lives, and they're
affecting millions of people.
How do we help people that are inthose dark places of rooting for
(05:02):
somebody else to fail of rootingfor the death of other people?
That's a really dark place.
How do we help them?
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: that's a great question. (05:09):
undefined
I hate to say it, but somepeople I'm not sure you can.
I think you can ask questions andyou can be kind you can be loving.
I'm a real big, like personalchoice and personal ownership and.
person's gonna make their decisions.
I even tell my kids this, man Iwant my kids to be so successful
more than anything in the world.
I would root for my kids, but I tell 'emall the time, it's gonna be your choices.
(05:33):
Dad can't be there every minute ofthe day to make sure you're getting
up and thinking the right thing,putting the right things in your
mind and doing these things right?
And yeah, we can show a better way.
And it's like that old saying,you can lead a horse to water.
You can't make 'em drink.
had people who have literally comeon my Twitter page and trolled me
for three or four years straight,literally you're an idiot.
(05:56):
You're a this or that.
And then after something clicked in'em four years later where they're
like, man, I just wanted to say sorry.
And thanks.
I'm really starting to do thisgratitude stuff and I see it
makes a, or this or that, right?
And so I go back to the guy thatI follow, man who was killed
a couple thousand years ago.
Jesus.
one of my favorite stories of him is hefinds this rich, young ruler and the guy
(06:17):
says to him, how do I have eternal life?
And Jesus says, it's real easy, man.
You're doing all the right things.
Just go sell your stuffand come follow me.
And it says, the guy was really sadbecause he had a lot of stuff, he
didn't wanna sell it, what I see fromthat is Jesus said, okay, he went
on his way, he went on his mission.
It was like the next one.
He was gonna preachthe gospel to the next.
What he didn't do is tell theguy all the reasons he was wrong.
(06:38):
Follow him for months and yellat him and tell him he was
stupid and try and convince him.
He just presented, he showed a betterway and he kept on his mission.
And what I look at when I, seeeven knowing a guy like Jerremy.
Your mission is so evident, man.
You impact so many people,you make their lives better.
man there's gonna be people that see youand probably, oh, that guy's a scammer.
(07:02):
That guy's a, I'm sure you get it.
I get it.
I got called a grifter 'causeI tried to get people to walk.
I'm like, how am I making moneyoff telling you to hit a certain
amount of steps every day?
But there's some people thatare just stuck in this mindset.
And I think, again, you lend a hand.
You offer to show them a better way.
You relentlessly be kind and positive,but it's an acknowledgement that
(07:22):
every single person has to take agencyand ownership of their life until
some people are ready to do that.
I hate to say it, butyou cannot help them.
Jerremy (07:30):
And what's interesting, man, is I think, again, my ultimate belief,
one of my ultimate perspectives.
This message, the one that youare sharing, you just shared,
we are kinda sharing today.
is the one that we need from the top down.
That's the message that we need tohear in the media Often and as much
(07:50):
as Tony Robbins has tried and MarmWilliamson has tried, and Alan Watts
and Earl Nightingale, Les Brown, ReneBrown, Leslie Nichols, as much of these
individuals have tried, we haven'thad anyone in that very prominent seat
and the prominent power in government.
To really say those words, and that'sprobably one of my biggest dreams
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (08:15):
Man
Jerremy (08:16):
to be that mouthpiece or to be in a position where we can get
individuals together and we can justpour light into them and pour awareness
and these tiny little mental shiftswhere we can collaborate together and
simply say, this is where we're going.
This seems like the best idea overall.
(08:37):
We did go to the moon in the late sixties'cause Kennedy was like, Hey, guess what
we're doing guys, the whole country?
Guess what we're doing?
Stop playing baseball.
what we're doing.
Almost right.
Just really a massive singular focus if wegot this country singularly focused from
the top down on health, on vitality, onpositive mindset, on an abundance mindset,
(09:02):
on a helping and collaboration mindset.
We would not only change the entirelegacy of the country, but we would
start shifting the entire approach ofthe world because obviously I think
America is that beacon for so many otherindividuals, other countries, other
places, that's how we can create anabsolute spark of hope and joy and peace.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: Man that, that fires me up even thinking (09:25):
undefined
about it, like how refreshing wouldthat be if you just had leaders like
instead of tweeting every day, likeGavin Newsom's Scum, and then Gavin
Newsom tweeting, Trump is an idiot.
How great would it be if like ourleaders were just like uplifting people?
Jerremy (09:41):
Yep.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: Oh and just like promoting (09:41):
undefined
that kind of positivity.
You mentioned JFK Man, and I recentlyread a pretty good book called
Profiles Encouraged by JFK and yeah,man he's the last one I looked to.
He admitted he was wrong with Bay of Pigs.
And he was in my mind, and maybe I'mwrong here, but one of the last leaders
to do a lot of those things you weresaying, and, see what happened to him.
(10:02):
Some people
Jerremy (10:03):
Yeah.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: that and where (10:04):
undefined
Jerremy (10:05):
Yep.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: that was going. (10:05):
undefined
And pretty dark if youthink of it from that lens.
I thought the other day like.
If a politician was to come andpreach on personal responsibility
now, they'd just be laughed out.
Laughed.
Like JFK was like, it's not what yourcountry can do for you, it's what you can
do for your, like that kind of message.
And he was a Democrat.
Imagine if a guy from the leftcame in saying that right now.
(10:27):
What can you do for your country?
Let's pick yourself up and let'swork hard and let's, dude they
wouldn't even get to the, there'sno way they'd even be considered.
but it's yeah, I feel like we doneed a shift in that kind of energy.
Jerremy (10:38):
We do, man.
We definitely do.
All right how about this?
Let's just lightning round potentially.
What's one rule the American governmentcurrently that just baffles you?
Like how is this even.
Old Eagle.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: I mean that we don't investigate, (10:58):
undefined
representatives for coming into office 2.1
million and exiting worth440,000,014 years later.
And where does the money come from?
You shouldn't be able toinside or trade and do it.
I get arrested Jerremy if me andthe CEO of a company and he tips
(11:19):
us off that they're gonna go publicin this certain time, or there's
gonna be a stock splitter and we buythe stock and we make $10 million.
We are gonna go to prison
Jerremy (11:27):
Yeah.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: Martha Stewart Prison where you (11:27):
undefined
just play yoga, you're gonna go toprison and guys like us probably
wouldn't farewell there, and
Jerremy (11:33):
Yep.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: there's a massive incentive for us. (11:33):
undefined
To not steal and cheat andinsider trade and do those things.
There's no incentive forthese people to not do this.
There's none.
The one that baffled my mind that gotpassed a few years ago was they added
a bunch of IRS agents and then Congressmade it exempt for them to be audited.
So they added like 70,000 IRS agents.
(11:54):
And you can check this, but thiswas like, think four or five years
ago, and then they made it exempt.
So you could, they cannot be audited.
House of Representatives are congressmen,and I'm like, you're basically just
telling everybody we're super corrupt,we're stealing, we insider trade, we
steep, we cheat, we steal, but also youcan't look at us that just blows my mind.
That's like a thing.
And that we, the peopleare just like cool with it.
(12:16):
I guess that's fine.
Like that's pretty,that blows my mind, man.
Jerremy (12:20):
Yeah, that one's a big one.
That one's a big one.
That would be, it doesn't, it's not votingspecifically related, but if I had a
magic wand, that's certainly one aspect ofsenators, representatives, congresspeople.
Like you can't buy individual stocks.
That's obviously the most illegal thing.
You are working directly with not onlythe laws that create more wealth or less
(12:42):
wealth for individual companies, butyou're talking to the CEOs and making
what's either gonna make that companymore viable or less viable, and they are
getting shares and opportunities, right?
Nancy's it's not me.
I'm not making the trades.
My husband is doing it.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (12:58):
Yeah
Jerremy (12:59):
so n now that I'm not saying they can't invest, right?
Absolutely.
Investments a broader market.
ETFs, you can do that all day,but your mind to the Fs and P
500, we don't want anyone to gobroke, but into individual names.
Yeah, that one is just almost a, it'snot almost, it's a head scratcher.
Huge head scratcher.
Dave (13:17):
Or three words, conflict of inter.
Do all of your shenanigans.
Like fine.
There's gonna be that,but you can't vote on it.
You can't accept money on it.
If you accept money from somebody, thenyou don't get to vote on those things.
That seems really basic.
When it gets down to it,it doesn't feel fair.
And like you guys have kids, and I'm sureyou've heard it, for years and years.
(13:39):
That's not fair.
But there is a basic fairnessin the American spirit.
That is if it doesn't matter for you, butit matters for me, then that's just wrong.
Like you don't get to have your ownspecial courts or your own special rules.
It's the Epstein stuff, like you mightget wrapped around the axle about it
(14:02):
specifically, but that's not the point.
The point is it feels like that there'sthis whole group of people where the
rules don't matter, the laws don'tmatter, and it's if you're leading,
we want you to be super citizens.
Like you should have extralaws, not fewer laws.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (14:19):
Yeah.
When it's rules for the, notrules for me, the not for me.
Yeah.
I think that's a big problem.
And I think that was reallyhighlighted during COVID too, right?
Where you would see these peopleflying in their private jets to
have parties with their elite peoplewhile telling you're a grandma
killer and you can't see your family.
And like that was just crazy.
I do think that, the more theysqueeze and the more people see that.
(14:42):
Which we are, the more pushback there is.
And I just wonder when thatpoint will happen, when people
are like, enough's enough.
Like enough is enough.
Like we've got to do something about this.
'cause it is really wild, man, that whenyou see the money that some, and it's
on both sides, like Nancy Pelosi's kindof poster child for it, but man, you
can look at both sides of RepublicanDemocrat and that's why I think one
and the same almost in a lot of ways.
(15:03):
us fighting over these socialissues all the time, while all of
them just continue to make tens ofhundreds of millions of dollars.
as long as we're all down herefighting over these social issues,
they just get to keep doing it.
And to me, that might be the point,
Jerremy (15:17):
yeah.
Keep what?
What's the the emperor circus?
Just keep everyone looking away.
Keep 'em distracted.
Keep 'em uninformed.
Unaware.
Tyler, this has been so refreshing, man.
Energetic, exciting, useful For ourlisteners, I just wanna say thanks,
man, for waking up at 5:00 AM WestCoast time getting prepped for this.
(15:37):
Dave, thanks for spending.
17 hours a day outta your 24hours a day to make sure that
this show runs super smoothly.
Man, it's been an honor.
I am 100% confident.
Many of your listeners, your followerswill have gained only some knowledge,
but some insight on not only how youthink, but how we can just tweak, how
we can adjust, how we can think moreclearly, how we can pray and ponder.
(16:00):
How we can make betterdecisions, how we can decide.
You said gain wisdom.
Wisdom generally is gained from askingand from opening up and from receiving
and from knowing that we don't have allthe answers and that someone can give
us enlightenment, someone can give ushelp, someone can give us assistance.
It doesn't always have to be us.
So thank you, Matt, for being hereand for doing that for so many.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (16:18):
Man.
Thank you.
It's an honor.
You guys are awesome, man.
It's really cool to come on hereand listen to you guys already.
And I can't wait to share this one.
And what you said too, man, is likethe last point I'd make is that.
If you don't agree with me onsomething or I don't agree with you,
that doesn't make us enemies, right?
Maybe we voted a different way, but maybeI've learned some things since then.
Maybe you have, maybe we can discussthose ideas respectfully and kindly,
(16:39):
and that's how we all grow and learn.
We're in a hyper political climatenow where I think some people might
listen and just, oh, he thinks this.
I hate him.
He's my enemy.
I'm not your enemy.
I'm nobody's enemy in this stuff.
We shouldn't be thinking like that.
And so I love that you guys can bringideas together where we can just
talk about things in a respectfulenvironment and share ideas and.
(17:00):
Maybe if we did this again in fiveyears, I'd have a completely different
take on something I would've learnedsomething that would've changed.
But I think that's thepoint of life is we have
Just try and learn and grow.
So I appreciate you guysproviding a space for that.
It's awesome.
Jerremy (17:10):
got it my man.
Thank you Tyler for being here.
Appreciate you, bro.
Doing content with Dave Conley.
Top five favorite things of my life.
what'd you learn inthat episode with Tyler?
Dave (17:22):
I'm gonna tell you what I didn't learn first,
Jerremy (17:24):
Didn't learn.
shoot.
Okay.
Flipping it.
Dave (17:28):
didn't learn anything new about the problem.
Didn't learn anythingnew about the solutions.
What I love about that is that whatstood out for me, what I did learn, what
really changed my day to day, becauseit's still early in the morning, is that.
Unrelenting positivity is how we'regoing to change the most, and we
(17:49):
see none of that in our leaders.
We see none of it in our politicians.
There is nobody out there that isjust incredibly positive about stuff.
there's actually one politicianthat I listen to that I get.
Which is Massey on the Republican side.
(18:11):
The congressman from, I think Kentucky.
He's pretty positive dude, when I hearhim and it's such a refreshing thing yeah,
you might not be able to help everybody.
In fact, that's probably notwhat people want to hear of.
I'm from the governmentand I'm here to help you.
be the example, be the person that'syeah, I want to make changes, and these
are all the exciting things about it.
(18:32):
it is positivity into whatseems like darkness right now.
How about you?
Jerremy (18:37):
I learned that people care.
That's the thing, man.
We keep getting people on the podcastand having discussions about the
democratic process and dialing in andtuning in and caring and people do care.
Dave (18:48):
Yeah.
Jerremy (18:49):
We are making changes and we are making shifts and I
love seeing, someone like Tylerwho is what I would say is just.
work and time energy in the bettermentof or mankind or his community and the
ways that he feels is best appropriate.

Yeah, man if Kamala Harris is president right
now, you know what I'd be doing right now?
Jerremy (00:56):
Thing you're doing.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: the same thing with Brandon. (00:57):

It, it really is man.
And maybe certain policiesmight shift this way.

is, you're not gonna be successful.
You're gonna, you're poisoned.
if you let politics capture you inthat way where you're like wishing
(01:59):
harm to other human beings and youhate 'em so much that you'll again.
That's my test.
If you're smart, if you hate Trump,but you can't admit he did a couple
things Well, or you hate Biden, butyou can't admit he did a couple things.
You're just not that smart.
And if he's driving the ship, I'mnot rooting for the ship to sink
'cause we're all on the ship,
Jerremy (02:17):
we're all on the ship.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: But it seems like we have a, at least (02:19):
undefined
a quarter, a third of the population.
It's like that now.
And I think if you're in that camp andyou're listening to that, I would just
challenge you to peel that back and saymaybe you don't like Trump as a person,
maybe I don't certainly agree witha lot of the things he says or does.
It's like he'll attack RosieO'Donnell at 3:00 AM on Twitter.
I just, I don't know why, like you'rethe most powerful guy in the world.
(02:40):
Like I probably wouldn't choose to do thator some of the policies or things he says.
But at the same time, man, how doesthat really affect my life today?
I can still go to the gym,I can still work hard.
I can still love my kids.
I can still do all those things.
You have to acknowledge that yourlife is a sum of your decisions.
That's the number one thing.
Whoever's in office, they'regonna do what they're gonna do.
(03:02):
And I'm not saying to just completelyignore it, but I am saying to your
point too, Jerremy, if you just sitthere and focus on everything Trump
does and how much you hate it, dude,you're not gonna live a good life.
to be honest, we've never had a timewhere 2025, almost 2026 now, where
there's endless resources to learn.
Gain knowledge and gain money and gain,like it's, if you would've told somebody
(03:22):
a couple hundred years ago, you could justhave access to the smartest people in the
world for free, and you can learn from it.
But yet many people will spend a fewhours a day complaining about politics
or whining about this or that when theycould just a hundred x of their life by
just learning new skill sets and goingand implementing those from smart people
and their health and fixing some oftheir relationships and things like that.
(03:45):
And so that's a harder thing to do.
It's much easier to just whineabout if only this person was
president, my life would be better.
But where does that get you?
And I
Jerremy (03:54):
Right.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: comes back to that personal (03:55):
undefined
responsibility and ownership of your life.
It doesn't matter who the president isfor me, my family's gonna be successful.
I would guarantee both ofyou men are in the same boat.
Doesn't really matter, man,whoever gets, if it's JD Vance,
Gavin Newsom, name, a name.
We will all find a way to be healthy,wealthy, thriving, doing well, because
that's who we're, that's what, that'sthe decisions we're gonna make, right?
(04:17):
And I think if more peopleapproach life like that would
actually be the best thing ever.
For families, for economies,for, like, how can I be the
best husband, the best dad?
How can I make more money?
How can I be healthier?
How can I impact my community?
How can I do these if I put alot of, that's why I put 99%
of my energy into those things.
Then sure, I'll put a percent or twointo who I'm gonna vote for with the
(04:39):
acknowledgement that it's probablynot gonna change my life that much.
Dave (04:42):
So given your large community, hundreds of thousands of people
have sought you out and havechanged their lives, and they're
affecting millions of people.
How do we help people that are inthose dark places of rooting for
(05:02):
somebody else to fail of rootingfor the death of other people?
That's a really dark place.
How do we help them?
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: that's a great question. (05:09):
undefined
I hate to say it, but somepeople I'm not sure you can.
I think you can ask questions andyou can be kind you can be loving.
I'm a real big, like personalchoice and personal ownership and.
person's gonna make their decisions.
I even tell my kids this, man Iwant my kids to be so successful
more than anything in the world.
I would root for my kids, but I tell 'emall the time, it's gonna be your choices.
(05:33):
Dad can't be there every minute ofthe day to make sure you're getting
up and thinking the right thing,putting the right things in your
mind and doing these things right?
And yeah, we can show a better way.
And it's like that old saying,you can lead a horse to water.
You can't make 'em drink.
had people who have literally comeon my Twitter page and trolled me
for three or four years straight,literally you're an idiot.
(05:56):
You're a this or that.
And then after something clicked in'em four years later where they're
like, man, I just wanted to say sorry.
And thanks.
I'm really starting to do thisgratitude stuff and I see it
makes a, or this or that, right?
And so I go back to the guy thatI follow, man who was killed
a couple thousand years ago.
Jesus.
one of my favorite stories of him is hefinds this rich, young ruler and the guy
(06:17):
says to him, how do I have eternal life?
And Jesus says, it's real easy, man.
You're doing all the right things.
Just go sell your stuffand come follow me.
And it says, the guy was really sadbecause he had a lot of stuff, he
didn't wanna sell it, what I see fromthat is Jesus said, okay, he went
on his way, he went on his mission.
It was like the next one.
He was gonna preachthe gospel to the next.
What he didn't do is tell theguy all the reasons he was wrong.
(06:38):
Follow him for months and yellat him and tell him he was
stupid and try and convince him.
He just presented, he showed a betterway and he kept on his mission.
And what I look at when I, seeeven knowing a guy like Jerremy.
Your mission is so evident, man.
You impact so many people,you make their lives better.
man there's gonna be people that see youand probably, oh, that guy's a scammer.
(07:02):
That guy's a, I'm sure you get it.
I get it.
I got called a grifter 'causeI tried to get people to walk.
I'm like, how am I making moneyoff telling you to hit a certain
amount of steps every day?
But there's some people thatare just stuck in this mindset.
And I think, again, you lend a hand.
You offer to show them a better way.
You relentlessly be kind and positive,but it's an acknowledgement that
(07:22):
every single person has to take agencyand ownership of their life until
some people are ready to do that.
I hate to say it, butyou cannot help them.
Jerremy (07:30):
And what's interesting, man, is I think, again, my ultimate belief,
one of my ultimate perspectives.
This message, the one that youare sharing, you just shared,
we are kinda sharing today.
is the one that we need from the top down.
That's the message that we need tohear in the media Often and as much
(07:50):
as Tony Robbins has tried and MarmWilliamson has tried, and Alan Watts
and Earl Nightingale, Les Brown, ReneBrown, Leslie Nichols, as much of these
individuals have tried, we haven'thad anyone in that very prominent seat
and the prominent power in government.
To really say those words, and that'sprobably one of my biggest dreams
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (08:15):
Man
Jerremy (08:16):
to be that mouthpiece or to be in a position where we can get
individuals together and we can justpour light into them and pour awareness
and these tiny little mental shiftswhere we can collaborate together and
simply say, this is where we're going.
This seems like the best idea overall.
(08:37):
We did go to the moon in the late sixties'cause Kennedy was like, Hey, guess what
we're doing guys, the whole country?
Guess what we're doing?
Stop playing baseball.
what we're doing.
Almost right.
Just really a massive singular focus if wegot this country singularly focused from
the top down on health, on vitality, onpositive mindset, on an abundance mindset,
(09:02):
on a helping and collaboration mindset.
We would not only change the entirelegacy of the country, but we would
start shifting the entire approach ofthe world because obviously I think
America is that beacon for so many otherindividuals, other countries, other
places, that's how we can create anabsolute spark of hope and joy and peace.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: Man that, that fires me up even thinking (09:25):
undefined
about it, like how refreshing wouldthat be if you just had leaders like
instead of tweeting every day, likeGavin Newsom's Scum, and then Gavin
Newsom tweeting, Trump is an idiot.
How great would it be if like ourleaders were just like uplifting people?
Jerremy (09:41):
Yep.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: Oh and just like promoting (09:41):
undefined
that kind of positivity.
You mentioned JFK Man, and I recentlyread a pretty good book called
Profiles Encouraged by JFK and yeah,man he's the last one I looked to.
He admitted he was wrong with Bay of Pigs.
And he was in my mind, and maybe I'mwrong here, but one of the last leaders
to do a lot of those things you weresaying, and, see what happened to him.
(10:02):
Some people
Jerremy (10:03):
Yeah.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: that and where (10:04):
undefined
Jerremy (10:05):
Yep.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: that was going. (10:05):
undefined
And pretty dark if youthink of it from that lens.
I thought the other day like.
If a politician was to come andpreach on personal responsibility
now, they'd just be laughed out.
Laughed.
Like JFK was like, it's not what yourcountry can do for you, it's what you can
do for your, like that kind of message.
And he was a Democrat.
Imagine if a guy from the leftcame in saying that right now.
(10:27):
What can you do for your country?
Let's pick yourself up and let'swork hard and let's, dude they
wouldn't even get to the, there'sno way they'd even be considered.
but it's yeah, I feel like we doneed a shift in that kind of energy.
Jerremy (10:38):
We do, man.
We definitely do.
All right how about this?
Let's just lightning round potentially.
What's one rule the American governmentcurrently that just baffles you?
Like how is this even.
Old Eagle.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: I mean that we don't investigate, (10:58):
undefined
representatives for coming into office 2.1
million and exiting worth440,000,014 years later.
And where does the money come from?
You shouldn't be able toinside or trade and do it.
I get arrested Jerremy if me andthe CEO of a company and he tips
(11:19):
us off that they're gonna go publicin this certain time, or there's
gonna be a stock splitter and we buythe stock and we make $10 million.
We are gonna go to prison
Jerremy (11:27):
Yeah.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: Martha Stewart Prison where you (11:27):
undefined
just play yoga, you're gonna go toprison and guys like us probably
wouldn't farewell there, and
Jerremy (11:33):
Yep.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242: there's a massive incentive for us. (11:33):
undefined
To not steal and cheat andinsider trade and do those things.
There's no incentive forthese people to not do this.
There's none.
The one that baffled my mind that gotpassed a few years ago was they added
a bunch of IRS agents and then Congressmade it exempt for them to be audited.
So they added like 70,000 IRS agents.
(11:54):
And you can check this, but thiswas like, think four or five years
ago, and then they made it exempt.
So you could, they cannot be audited.
House of Representatives are congressmen,and I'm like, you're basically just
telling everybody we're super corrupt,we're stealing, we insider trade, we
steep, we cheat, we steal, but also youcan't look at us that just blows my mind.
That's like a thing.
And that we, the peopleare just like cool with it.
(12:16):
I guess that's fine.
Like that's pretty,that blows my mind, man.
Jerremy (12:20):
Yeah, that one's a big one.
That one's a big one.
That would be, it doesn't, it's not votingspecifically related, but if I had a
magic wand, that's certainly one aspect ofsenators, representatives, congresspeople.
Like you can't buy individual stocks.
That's obviously the most illegal thing.
You are working directly with not onlythe laws that create more wealth or less
(12:42):
wealth for individual companies, butyou're talking to the CEOs and making
what's either gonna make that companymore viable or less viable, and they are
getting shares and opportunities, right?
Nancy's it's not me.
I'm not making the trades.
My husband is doing it.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (12:58):
Yeah
Jerremy (12:59):
so n now that I'm not saying they can't invest, right?
Absolutely.
Investments a broader market.
ETFs, you can do that all day,but your mind to the Fs and P
500, we don't want anyone to gobroke, but into individual names.
Yeah, that one is just almost a, it'snot almost, it's a head scratcher.
Huge head scratcher.
Dave (13:17):
Or three words, conflict of inter.
Do all of your shenanigans.
Like fine.
There's gonna be that,but you can't vote on it.
You can't accept money on it.
If you accept money from somebody, thenyou don't get to vote on those things.
That seems really basic.
When it gets down to it,it doesn't feel fair.
And like you guys have kids, and I'm sureyou've heard it, for years and years.
(13:39):
That's not fair.
But there is a basic fairnessin the American spirit.
That is if it doesn't matter for you, butit matters for me, then that's just wrong.
Like you don't get to have your ownspecial courts or your own special rules.
It's the Epstein stuff, like you mightget wrapped around the axle about it
(14:02):
specifically, but that's not the point.
The point is it feels like that there'sthis whole group of people where the
rules don't matter, the laws don'tmatter, and it's if you're leading,
we want you to be super citizens.
Like you should have extralaws, not fewer laws.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (14:19):
Yeah.
When it's rules for the, notrules for me, the not for me.
Yeah.
I think that's a big problem.
And I think that was reallyhighlighted during COVID too, right?
Where you would see these peopleflying in their private jets to
have parties with their elite peoplewhile telling you're a grandma
killer and you can't see your family.
And like that was just crazy.
I do think that, the more theysqueeze and the more people see that.
(14:42):
Which we are, the more pushback there is.
And I just wonder when thatpoint will happen, when people
are like, enough's enough.
Like enough is enough.
Like we've got to do something about this.
'cause it is really wild, man, that whenyou see the money that some, and it's
on both sides, like Nancy Pelosi's kindof poster child for it, but man, you
can look at both sides of RepublicanDemocrat and that's why I think one
and the same almost in a lot of ways.
(15:03):
us fighting over these socialissues all the time, while all of
them just continue to make tens ofhundreds of millions of dollars.
as long as we're all down herefighting over these social issues,
they just get to keep doing it.
And to me, that might be the point,
Jerremy (15:17):
yeah.
Keep what?
What's the the emperor circus?
Just keep everyone looking away.
Keep 'em distracted.
Keep 'em uninformed.
Unaware.
Tyler, this has been so refreshing, man.
Energetic, exciting, useful For ourlisteners, I just wanna say thanks,
man, for waking up at 5:00 AM WestCoast time getting prepped for this.
(15:37):
Dave, thanks for spending.
17 hours a day outta your 24hours a day to make sure that
this show runs super smoothly.
Man, it's been an honor.
I am 100% confident.
Many of your listeners, your followerswill have gained only some knowledge,
but some insight on not only how youthink, but how we can just tweak, how
we can adjust, how we can think moreclearly, how we can pray and ponder.
(16:00):
How we can make betterdecisions, how we can decide.
You said gain wisdom.
Wisdom generally is gained from askingand from opening up and from receiving
and from knowing that we don't have allthe answers and that someone can give
us enlightenment, someone can give ushelp, someone can give us assistance.
It doesn't always have to be us.
So thank you, Matt, for being hereand for doing that for so many.
Tylertyler-todt_1_09-08-2025_060242 (16:18):
Man.
Thank you.
It's an honor.
You guys are awesome, man.
It's really cool to come on hereand listen to you guys already.
And I can't wait to share this one.
And what you said too, man, is likethe last point I'd make is that.
If you don't agree with me onsomething or I don't agree with you,
that doesn't make us enemies, right?
Maybe we voted a different way, but maybeI've learned some things since then.
Maybe you have, maybe we can discussthose ideas respectfully and kindly,
(16:39):
and that's how we all grow and learn.
We're in a hyper political climatenow where I think some people might
listen and just, oh, he thinks this.
I hate him.
He's my enemy.
I'm not your enemy.
I'm nobody's enemy in this stuff.
We shouldn't be thinking like that.
And so I love that you guys can bringideas together where we can just
talk about things in a respectfulenvironment and share ideas and.
(17:00):
Maybe if we did this again in fiveyears, I'd have a completely different
take on something I would've learnedsomething that would've changed.
But I think that's thepoint of life is we have
Just try and learn and grow.
So I appreciate you guysproviding a space for that.
It's awesome.
Jerremy (17:10):
got it my man.
Thank you Tyler for being here.
Appreciate you, bro.
Doing content with Dave Conley.
Top five favorite things of my life.
what'd you learn inthat episode with Tyler?
Dave (17:22):
I'm gonna tell you what I didn't learn first,
Jerremy (17:24):
Didn't learn.
shoot.
Okay.
Flipping it.
Dave (17:28):
didn't learn anything new about the problem.
Didn't learn anythingnew about the solutions.
What I love about that is that whatstood out for me, what I did learn, what
really changed my day to day, becauseit's still early in the morning, is that.
Unrelenting positivity is how we'regoing to change the most, and we
(17:49):
see none of that in our leaders.
We see none of it in our politicians.
There is nobody out there that isjust incredibly positive about stuff.
there's actually one politicianthat I listen to that I get.
Which is Massey on the Republican side.
(18:11):
The congressman from, I think Kentucky.
He's pretty positive dude, when I hearhim and it's such a refreshing thing yeah,
you might not be able to help everybody.
In fact, that's probably notwhat people want to hear of.
I'm from the governmentand I'm here to help you.
be the example, be the person that'syeah, I want to make changes, and these
are all the exciting things about it.
(18:32):
it is positivity into whatseems like darkness right now.
How about you?
Jerremy (18:37):
I learned that people care.
That's the thing, man.
We keep getting people on the podcastand having discussions about the
democratic process and dialing in andtuning in and caring and people do care.
Dave (18:48):
Yeah.
Jerremy (18:49):
We are making changes and we are making shifts and I
love seeing, someone like Tylerwho is what I would say is just.
work and time energy in the bettermentof or mankind or his community and the
ways that he feels is best appropriate.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
