But for sure, he’s aware that there are hordes of people who love hearing him, just like the multitudes who dislike his talks in equal length.

“That’s what I like about it. That’s what I like about it. I like that this m**********r right here he ain’t doing the Navy SEAL s**t. Oh, you don’t like David Goggins. I don’t know him, but neither do I. I don’t know him at all, but neither do I. No, this m**********r’s saying, look, dude, like it or not, this is my f*****g opinion, right, and that’s what it is. Which very few men do, ever yeah ever do they have their own opinion.” He said.
