You know what I mean? It's completely out the window, man. It's out the window. Like nowadays, you say hi to a female in the gym. You open a door. They think it's an advance. Oh, yeah.

1:16Beautiful day on a Saturday in Southwest Florida. We're here at the Revs Institute. You know, you guys did a fun run from Lamborghini and Broward all the way to Lamborghini and Naples. And now we're here for Supercar Saturday, man. And it's an amazing event. Talk to us about that. So, long story short, Val, when Ricky Williams signed with the Dolphins. Yep. Ricky wanted to do a car deal. And so I said, well, Val called me up. She said, I could put you in touch with Warren Henry Otto, who was Range Rover. I did the deal with Ricky Williams. I said, Warren, who's doing the marketing? Nobody. I said, I'll do the marketing because Ricky's my guy.

1:53A year later, Dwayne Wade signs with the Miami Heat. Dwayne Wade wants a car deal. a vow. I want to get a car deal for Dwayne Wade. But the one here, he did a deal for Dwayne Wade. Ended up doing his marketing. We ended up buying Lamborghini Palm Beach. Warren goes, how are we going to get people to Palm Beach? We're a Dade County store. Well, we can get some celebrities up there and do like cars and coffee. Long story short, Warren's like sold it out, whatever. Lamborghini came to us and said, you want a broad county point? We ended up in Lamborghini Broad. Warren goes, how are we going to get people for the Lamborghini Park.

2:30I said, we could do like we did in Lamborghini Palm Beach, but really not the cars and cars were more supercars. And that's how Supercar Saturday became. It's amazing, man, because like, and it's so funny, like let's go back a little bit. You're talking about Val, right? Because she dude, that girl starts more shit than in a good way. Like she told me that you told her, because she asked you like, how'd you get in the cars? And she's and you said, you Val? Yeah. That's how it started, right? It's like, and she's like, I don't

3:01When did making plans get this complicated? It's time to streamline with WhatsApp. The secure messaging app that brings the whole group together. Use polls to settle dinner plans. Send event invites and pin messages so no one forgets mom's 60th. And never miss a meme or milestone. All protected with end-to-end encryption. It's time for WhatsApp. Message privately with everyone. Learn more at whatsapp.com. I don't think that's it. Yeah. Yes, it is. I did the deal with Ricky Williams. That's so cool, man. I did the deal with Ricky Williams. Then we did Dwyane Wade. But Val was doing the marketing for Warren Henriotto, and she's the one who hooked me up with him.

3:38Long story short, 2002 when Ricky was with the Dolphins, I'm still with Warren Henry, you know, and we've now known 30 dealerships. We're on Lamborghini Broward, and we're on Lamborghini Naples. That's why I'm going to come from Broward to Naples, because those are both our stores. It's so cool. Cool event, man. Like, I wasn't sure what I was going to expect, because you know you're like hey meet me here at this time and we'll drive over together in my car i'm like all right cool well i thought i was getting there right like maybe before all the shit was going down i go up i'm like what the hell man i took like the last parking spot it was wild man people out there a lot of people with amazing cameras families kids they had a simulator in there man it's just what a really cool event to not just about be about cars.

4:23I mean, that's part of it. But from what I saw, man, it brought families together and it's given them something fun and clean to do on a Saturday morning. And go back to me again. Like I said, I play professional football for a living. I love the cars, but you see my guys, this little kid might not be able to afford that car. No matter, you know, let them sit in your car, let them touch your car, let them be, you know, this makes these people date. It sure does. So for us, you know, if you can't, you're making these people a day. So, you know, let them enjoy it, you know. And the group, that's our group, a great group of guys, you know what I'm saying?

4:59This is fun for us. We wanted to be fun for everybody else. And you met a lot of the guys. I did, man. I met your partner, John. Yeah, John. Super nice dude. Everybody's just so down to earth, man. You know what I mean? But we do this because, of course, driving these cars, you know, you don't want to be just like, I'm the guy in Lamborghini driving down the street. It's more fun we're in a group and doing it together, you know. So that's why we do all these different fun things together. So we're here in Naples, man. Naples takeover. Come on, dude. Seriously, it's what it was. Going down 41. There's a line of freaking cars behind us.

5:30Everybody pulling over. You got people coming out of their businesses, dude, with their phones. Like, what's going on? Charles, like, you got people coming out of their business. I'm like, you got people coming out of their business, man. She's got scrubs on. She probably got patients and shit. I'm like, you need to get back in there, man. Hold that thought right there. Hold on. We're going to pull that tooth in a second. that tooth in a second. We got to go out there, a bunch of Lambos and exotic cars driving down the road. I just think it's super cool like that, man, because it, you know, again, cars bring people together and it's much more than just about the vehicle, man.

6:00And so when you talk about your old school values, right. And I'd have to say like, you know, you, you hinted at about, you know, a kid that may not be able to afford that car. Let them sit in your car, let them, let them go for a spin or let them do whatever. Right. But dude, man, but, but, but to me, like that's about hope too. Yeah. Because when they can touch something and they can sit down on it and be in there and just understand that something like this can be attainable for them, it could change their life. And it changed a lot of kids' life. We just did a drive Friday to this kid who had terminal cancer and they did a rally.

6:34All the kid wanted before whatever was to have a group of cars drive by his window in the hospital. That's all he wanted. And these guys did it on Friday. Come on, man. So, you're about to make a trade based on a friend's text. But which you do you listen to? Is it, we could buy a house in Tulum. Get optioning those options. We could lose everything. Or let's do a little research. Get your head in the trade and make the investment decision that's right for you. Learn more at finra.org slash trade smart. and that's what that's what this whole thing is you know it's you drive a car cool but it's what can you do to change people to change lives to do something better like you said the better people to give them hope i could do this i could have this you know that's what it's all about you know yeah man and again it just brings happiness because you walk in here to the rev institute you see all these amazing cars pretty and my buddy kyle gets excited hey hey i gotta go show you this mclaren yeah it's his f1 mclaren it's like the only one it's like it's crazy i'm like yeah it's wyclef's wyclef is it his wyclef was the first one to have that car in the united states yeah wow freaking wyclef and that's my dude that's my guy dude's dope man yeah he's a good dude he's a car guy oh really car guy he comes he actually did a song and i'm gonna find it about supercross saturday florida dude that's gotta be your theme song yeah no we played it i gotta i I got to find it.

8:06I'm going to have Elo sends over to you. I want that. I want that. We'll work it in, man. Yeah, yeah. It's a pretty badass song. White Cliff's my guy. Cliff's a good dude. You know, it's so funny because the more I am connected, you know, through to people like you and public figures, you know what I noticed? Man, these are some good-ass people, man. And I just feel like Joe Public always looks at them as kind of like, hey, they pigeonhole him like, you're an actor. You're a musician. You're not. No, no, no. That's something that they do. Right. How has it been for you and, you know, all these people that you know to disconnect from what you actually do to who you are and how you're accepted in the community and treated?

8:51You know, with me, anybody that knows me, of course, you know, I work with the NFL. I keep my NFL life here. I keep my car life here. I keep my public life here. you know I try not to dabble in both you know what I mean because my professional athletes guys they're a certain way you gotta have them a certain way my car guys are a certain way you gotta have them me as my public life man I'm born man I mean compared to what I used to be I'm Netflix that's what's up you know it's so funny when your mother's say be hungry for the lights come on that's how I live these days you know what I mean I mean the most I do is riding around with these guys I train every day and that's it you know but again the older you get more easier you want life you know what i mean life because i've done it all seen it all been there with it all and you just take every little bit of part of your life and you just make yourself a better person but it still it goes about how you were raised you know what i mean sure does man you know i think there's also choices too right like like you were raised really well you had a mom that you know dropping the hammer on dj robin when he walks in the house dropping that bomb cussing right but then you also have the other side of it that there's a lot of people out there that have made it in this world that that didn't have that upbringing and there was a choice right do i want to be a good person do i want to give good in the world or be bad or give bad right and so it's always nice to see people that are out there doing things that are positive but i just think the overall theme man is like you know this would not be successful what you're doing right now if it were for you it's for people everybody we're here to serve man can we just talk about that real quick like I don't care what people's viewpoints or what God they represent or believe in, but, man, we're here to serve people.

10:42We're here to serve the world. Man, and in this world we're in right now, man, wow. Underserved, man. Wow, you know, is what happened to morals and values and just, I mean, just values and respect. It's like, I mean, what happened? You know what I mean? we lost that in the ways, you know what I mean? And that's another reason why I stand this day to myself, because it's this world we're in. It's crazy, man. Like, disrespect, you know what I mean? Like, hi, how you doing? Yes, ma 'am. No, man, hold the door before a lady. You know what I mean? If I can help somebody else, that's out the window.

11:20It's completely out the window. It's out the window. Like nowadays, you say hi to someone, you say hi to a female in the gym, you open a door, they think it's in advance. Oh, yeah. Like, no. Like, I'm, hi because i'm a nice person right so like i just think that when when we look at this world it's jaded man everybody's trying to come up everybody's trying to do something big i mean hell i'll admit i'm i'm built i've built a brand i've built this show but it's been done on the back of integrity yeah right and authenticity we talked about that a little bit and serving the community because if it were for me floyd i mean i would have quit this shit a long ass time ago.

11:57Remember what I told you when Val first asked me to do this show? I said, Val. Remember what I told you? I said, Val. Is it a podcast? I said, I think a podcast is people selling their souls just to get ratings. You know what I mean? It's like this. What happened to what you do, you take it to the grave. Like I've been friends of mine who've passed and celebrities and people say, you need to write a book or you need to do it. I said, no, man. Why? You know, my girl says it best. She goes, why is there a time you see your athlete or celebrity friend, you just start laughing? Because we got memories, man.

12:33That's cool. You know what I mean? Problem with people now, they don't have memories. It could be a year later, I'll see you, and we're going to laugh about today. Yeah, of course. You know, we're not going to end. We're going to laugh about it. When I see my athlete friends, celebrity friends, it could be years later, and we just laugh. You know, it's so funny because my best friend, Quinn Stewart, and Ryan Patterson, two guys that are super close to me. We played baseball together at LSU. You went to LSU? Yeah, man. I played baseball. I went to Southern. You went to Southern? I went to Southern.

13:01Come on, bro. Come on, man. Yeah. It's a connection. Is Val like in the background and be like, okay, connect these two because of this. They don't know about this. They'll discover it, man. That's hot. Baton Rouge, man. That place is hot, bro. Love it. Baton Rouge. I was there with Lyman White, Dalton Hilliard. Wow. The Giants. What's his name? Played with the Giants. Big lineman. He was there. But yeah, we used to all go back. That's wild, bro. Yeah, man. It was stomping grounds in Baton Rouge, man. Come on, man. Are you from? No, I'm from Illinois originally, yeah. You're from Illinois. Yeah, but I went to school down in Southern.

13:39I love Baton Rouge, man. It's the best, bro. That girl fish, man. Oh, man. It's the best. It's the best. Everything there. The people. Yeah, the people. So cool, man. So funny. My story, Sean, I went to UNLV my freshman year. to about 79, man. And so I remember the first week in school, they got all the athletes together in the room. They said, don't worry about going to class. I'm going to appoint you a booster. Whatever you do, don't fuck over your booster. Never fined. I got this big Johnny on this hotel. Hey, Florida, who should have been on the game? Give me your tickets. I told my dad, I said, I'm watching this shit on TV, right?

14:17What am I doing? Yeah, I'm like, dad, I don't think I'm alone here, you know? but it's funny because like going back to it, like I'll link up with Q, like he'll fly in, he'll hang out with me and my wife and my kids. Or we went to Texas, a couple of Texas, a couple of times. And our buddy, Ryan Patterson just got married in March. Okay. And we just see each other and we just. And laugh. That's what I'm saying, bro, man, we go to some of this shit, some of this shit. Like, thank God there wasn't social media back then. I say that all the time. I say that all the time. me and Dennis said bro we'd have been done a long time ago for social media done me and LT we'd have done a long time ago social media me and all my guys a long time but you know we got we got this memories so when we see I'll run into somebody my girl always said why you guys always laugh when you I see I said bro if you only knew yeah but we know and you don't even have to say anything no you don't know it's a look it's a look it's a look it's a look yeah and you just start laughing I know and all this stuff just start turning through your head.

15:20You just wish, you know what I'm saying? But at least you know you had those moments. Do you remember the clip that Kevin Hart did about when you become my best friend, you've already bought into my bullshit. My bullshit is your bullshit. We don't talk about our bullshit. All I got to do is look at you. Like, and you know. And you know. And not to say anything. And you know. You already signed up for this. And you know. That's a good friendship, right? How many of those friendships have you been able to not just bring into the car world, but also make new ones in this industry? My sports world is a different world.

15:55Different folks, man. I know you know who I've dealt with. Special guys. I got some great guys in this car world, but it's different. You know what I mean? It's nothing like winning them trenches and you going through it together. You play sports. Well, you learn about their soul in that. Yeah, bro. You can't replace that. You can't, no. And I tell people the biggest thing, I've done this. And when you walk through that stadium, you went to LSU with Zy. When you retire, you will never be able to replace that feeling. No, you can't. You can't. When you're in that locker room, you'll never be able to replace.

16:37That's what you miss. Now I miss the practice. It's just a camaraderie. I don't miss a practice. You know, it's a camaraderie. Nobody misses that. Yeah, it's that. You know what I mean? And so it's different, man. But you take that, and my girl is like, why do I never get excited? I said, baby, it's hard to get excited about things when you've done so much. Dude, that's a good point because I battle with this with my wife. She says, and I've talked about this multiple times, and the audience is probably tired of listening to it, but it keeps coming up. So there's a reason, right? And what I'm finding is the more I'm connected to high-level folks like you, we're the same.

17:16We all go through the same. It's not that I'm not ever grateful for where I'm at. It's that there's another climb and it never stops. You ain't ready to get that climb again. You never, it never stops. It ain't the money. No. It ain't the views. No. It's the grind that you went through to get here. Mm-hmm. You can't replace it. No. Because once you got here, you can't replace it. But something people are going to say about, oh, that conversation with Floyd. I'm like, yeah, that conversation with Floyd was dope. But it was about everything before. it was the the the meeting right the conversation then it was like we couldn't get it to work virtually then we met at lamborghini and then you didn't even know who i was at first you thought i was someone different like hey you go to rocco's tacos because you ain't got that wristband i'm like what are you talking about lunch i'm like fuck bro i'm like what the fuck are you talking about like what do you mean okay a wristband i'm like when are we filming we're supposed to film at 12 30 and then this guy's face completely contorted and changed because he realized i was who I was and it was just like oh then we're family yeah exactly but it is funny because like it's the the conversation's cool yeah this is cool yeah but it's the the lead up man it's like the process and everybody gets so focused on on this right here yeah that but but that ain't it that ain't it yeah the interview was cool but everything going up to like Val was freaking oh this is not gonna work it's a Val we can make it work yeah yeah but you know she's like she goes well do you want me to conference them in i'm like yeah conference them in we'll talk and she goes and she goes well i don't want to be in the middle girl you're the one that died you don't want to die but no it's um but it's all good but like those things like those certain pressure points right those those misunderstandings and and the preparation just like with with athletics and then podcast or even events here at rev institute with supercar saturday like bro the event it ain't that ain't it like you you look back like why can't you why can't you be excited about what you've accomplished and like well because what I accomplished is because of all this shit that's what I'm excited about right yeah I like to see everybody else having a good time people always ask me why you do this it's fun to me it keeps me occupied it gives me a challenge to put this together get all this together but that's what I do I mean it's like people like you should be making this it's not about that with me, man.

19:40You know what I mean? I hear that shit all the time, Floyd. Oh bro. Like bro, how many, how many DMS do I get? Or somebody say like, I'm kind of blown away that you're not making 150 K a month. I'm like, but, but, but like, but how, like, not even, not even how, but it's like, wait a second. The way we're doing this is different. We're doing it out of authenticity. My goal isn't to make that. My goal is to make an impact and the money follows. It follows. somebody follows it follows that's what it's all about look swindling on Instagram people I had a buddy in mind he goes why you don't have this car why you don't do this why you don't make this I said man look now that this makes my life you know what I mean I train like a motherfucker every day I'm 64 years old you're 64?

20:31I'm 64 get the fuck out of here dog my dad took my whole car group, the Brandon Marshall's gym. Okay. I said, man, bump the cars. I like you guys as friends. How the fuck you riding around in a half million dollar car and you pulling up to a McDonald's, but you put pin-pin gas in your car, but you eat like shit. So I mean, you take better care of the car than you do yourself. That doesn't make sense to me. You know what I mean? So come on, let me show you how the blood work, how to eat right, nutrition. I took them all to Brandon Marshall's gym. That's sick, dude. I said, I do this because I care about you.

21:04Fuck the car. I care about you guys. Now, if you want to take it in, that's on you, but this is what I care about. I want you around to be able to drive that car. But it don't make any sense to me that you put the treatment, PRP treatment on a car, put the new tires, the rims, you put premium gas, you don't put regular gas in your car, but you put regular food and bullshit food in your body. Come on, man. So do you take better care of a car than you do yourself? it's not connected you know it's so funny because like i've been there right i've been there and in december i made that switch for myself and you know a lot of times i think people try to make that shift out of shame and hatred towards themselves and and this time for me i made it out of love i'm like hey man i deserve more like you deserve to to feed your body better you deserve to look better because you only got one you got one bro but and again here's the thing the other is like the food is mentioned in the Bible.

21:57How many times? Thousands. Yeah. It's mentioned. One of the majorly discussed things in the Bible is the food. Yeah. It's filling the Holy Spirit with food that is put on the surface for you to eat, not processed food. Right? But then when I look at it, it's like once I did that, my mind started working differently. Then my show got better. Everything got better. But most importantly, I ain't worried about getting sick and not being able to take care of my family. Right. You play sports. Part of sports is your diet. But because you transition in life, you got to go back to what you know. Me, I train every day.

22:37Me, when I relax on the weekends, I go hit the track. I go, I'm on a football field three days a week. I'm on the track one day a week. Why are you out there? And I go out there 12 noon. What? Because that's the only place I go with no cell phone. I'm going to be the only one out there. But that's what I know. That relaxes me. Yeah. you know I like to beat myself up that's what I know you know what I mean everybody goes it's hot okay good bring water and that's what man look that's my relaxation when I go to not going to the gym because I'm not going to the gym people like to talk I hate going to the gym got those headphones in man oh but yeah people talking I'm like that's your eyes because I'm listening to my body Yeah.

23:23You know, and I'll go to the field. I'm not anyone out there. My girl goes out there. Funny story. My girl, I've been with her 19 years. When we first started going out, I said, let me tell you how this relationship's going to work. I work out like a motherfucker every day. We're going to work. You got to work out like a motherfucker every day. That's awesome. 19 years, we're still together. You know what she does? She works out like a motherfucker every day. She gets me up some days. Rinse takes your laundry and hand delivers it to your door, expertly cleaned and folded, So you could take the time once spent folding and sorting and waiting to finally pursue a whole new version of you.

23:58Like tea time you. Mmm. Or this tea time you. Or even this tea time you. So did you hear about Dave? Or even tea time, tea time, tea time you. Mmm. So update on Dave. It's up to you. We'll take the laundry. Rinse. It's time to be great. But it keeps you connected too, right? You got to have something in common. You can't, she can't be eating steak and eggs and all this. And you try to eat healthy. How do you think that's going to work? Yeah. It's not. You don't eat steak and eggs? No, fuck no. I don't eat red meat. Oh, okay. So let's not. See, I eat the shit out of red meat, dude. Oh, bro. You ever had a colonic?

24:37No. How old are you? I'm 46. We'll get a colonic. Okay. We'll get a colonic. When you, so, I base everything on a car. A radiator, I mean a radiator. It's like this. through all the years all that gunk builds up on it you know all your flushing ready to get all that gunk yeah your colon's the same way all the years that stuff build up on your walls the reason you get a colonic is to flush your walls and get all that gunk up your walls like this through the years it gets like this when that bitch close it's too late so what do you eat? chicken? chicken, fish chicken, fish salad Now it's boring.

25:20It's boring. Yeah. But I mean, I used to eat steak when I played ball. I'm not trying to do all that. When I see what comes out of you, once you see what comes out of you, because you can see it, I'm never eating again. You know what I mean? And I just don't like that bloated feeling. Yeah. You know, like, I just. I never feel that. I typically, I stick with like more of like a modified carnivore. Like the only carb all I eat would be a vegetable or a fruit. Yeah. Once in a while, I'll have kind of a refeed meal. But for the most part, I eat pretty lean, right? But I never looked at the whole red meat versus chicken.

25:57You know, it's about digest. Red meat is hard to digest, man. Okay. You know, and that's why I do it. You know, I eat fish, a lot of fish. My girl used to like that too now. You know what I mean? What kind of fish? Salmon. That's my go-to salmon. I love salmon. You want to hear a funny story about salmon? What? So this dude, this guy that lived me way back in the day, his name was Jamie Lee. And I was at, when I went home in California, he's my roommate, right? We were younger. I'm from California. I'm from the East Bay, like Conquer Wall Creek area. So I coached football at Monterey Junior College.

26:33Get out of here. Monterey's beautiful, dude. Yeah, I coached two years up there football. Monterey's beautiful. But so he's like, hey, him and his dad went fishing. And he's like, I got all these salmon steaks. I'm like, cool. So he brings them home. We grill them up. And I love that. It tastes so good until I found all these damn rib bones in it. Like they weren't, he didn't take out the bones. Oh, it's got the rib bones. So now I have an aversion to it. I won't even touch it. Yeah, you're scared it's going to get caught in your throat. I won't even touch it. Yeah, it's going to gag you out. It's disgusting.

26:58I'm not touching it. Yeah, it's going to gag you out. I know it's like the best, right? But man, so what's going to go on here the rest of the day here at the Rebs and Soup? So today we're here at Rebs. We live here. We go to Rocco's Tacos for lunch. We live here. One of my buddies, you and me, I introduce you to him, Rick. He has a crazy car collection. Then we'll check in at one of the hotels on Fifth Avenue. Then we'll go to dinner. That's nice. You're going to stay the night, then you're going to go back tomorrow. We're going to stay the night. Then we get up and drive back in the morning.
