What did you get?
62
A collector's thing?
63
Yeah.
64
What did you get?
65
First full appearance of Godzilla.
66
First cover of Godzilla, 1954.
67
Oh, a magazine cover.
68
Uh-huh.
69
It's technically like a comic, a storybook.
70
I have $65,000.
71
Do I hear $70,000?
72
Come on, come on, come on.
73
Close.

77
$65,000.
78
Yes!
79
I won!
80
Yes!
81
I'm not kidding.
82
I guess we'll see how this ages,
83
but that feels like one of the most significantly underrated collectibles I've ever purchased in my life.
84
I could be wrong, but it's f***ing Godzilla.
85
It's from 1954.
86
Okay, so I'm looking at the pop report right now.
87
There's only three Godzillas registered.
88
This is the feeling I'm having right now.
89
Before I bought the Pikachu illustrator,
90
there was a previous owner.
91
Before him,
92
there was a previous owner he sold the illustrator for sixty
93
thousand dollars i sold it two owners later for 16 million
94
i feel like godzilla is in the sixty thousand dollar stage right now absolute bargain nice nice and nice
95
i give you this bro my wife's gonna kick my ass It's the last week before Mania,
96
so we want to op the notch for the workouts a little bit.
97
What was that?
98
Op the notch.
99
We want to notch it up.
100
It's getting closer.
101
We're going to put it up a notch.
102
We're taking it up a notch.
103
By the way, he looks so funny to me.
104
LA Knight.
105
I just have to say it.
106
He kind of looks like a toddler in a swim diaper.
107
Oh my gosh.
108
So you're gonna start with 15 minutes of jump, bro.
109
Right.
110
Which we always start with some cardio,
111
because that way you know you're gonna get a good workout in.
112
Yeah.
113
We're gonna do 100 total of the hanging abs, minimal breaks in between.
114
I see futures in place,
115
I see strength in the strain Every up,
116
up, up, right in my name I was tan maxing today.
117
The sun kind of drained my energy.
118
I played tennis for 90 minutes and I have football later.
119
Yeah, it's true.
120
Nina joined a local flag football team.
121
She's very good.
122
She's better than I am,
123
which is saying a lot,
124
obviously, because I beat Tom Brady.
125
In fact, roll some highlights for my wife.
126
Oh, yeah!
127
What do you have to say to first time dads out there?
128
Can I say it after the workout?
129
No. It only gets better, guys.
130
Every phase is just a phase,
131
but they're all fantastic in their own way.
132
So just enjoy and cherish every moment of it in real time as best you can.
133
Because the moments are fleeting.
134
But if you try and stay present with your baby off your phone,
135
and I struggle with it,
136
to be honest, but I try and give her I'm here,
137
devoted attention when I'm around her.
138
And it's really fulfilling.
139
Next!
140
Alright we're about to do 10 minutes straight of abs.
141
I'm following Nina's lead, but zero breaks, 10 minutes.
142
Look at that.
143
No sweat drip down my face.
144
Ain't no pushing me to my limit.
145
I ain't even till I feel it.
146
Oh my gosh.
147
I'm gonna keep it real with you, Logang.
148
Today is a tough day for me.
149
I call it days like these man makers.
150
Even though my wife's doing everything I'm doing.
151
I'm finding I'm getting tired pretty quickly and this is tough but I have an obligation to commit to fitness.
152
so I don't really care how I feel,
153
you just gotta do it.
154
Plus I can't look like a bitch in front of my wife.
155
That's right.
156
It's mainly that to be honest.
157
The first thing I said.
158
Hey, but that's the reality.
159
Not every day in the gym you're gonna feel 100%.
160
Some days it's gonna be harder than others.
161
As long as you show up,
162
you get through those workouts,
163
that's what this is all about.
164
You gotta push yourself.
165
One.
166
Last hold.
167
Hold it here.
168
Three, two, one.
169
Drop.
170
Three, five, five, four, open, close, eight.
171
Last two, last one.
172
Last two, last one.
173
That's it.
174
Good job.
175
Good job.
176
All right, so I think that's it for the workout today.
177
How long was that?
178
50 minutes.
179
That sucked.
180
I'm not gonna lie, but something that didn't suck this week,
181
guess who I spoke with?
182
The man, the myth, the legend, Bob Lazar.
183
The man who worked at Area 51 and personally reverse engineered alien craft.
184
And guess what?
185
I showed him the alleged alien UFO video footage that I have in my possession.
186
Yeah, and it was exactly like that.
187
UFO enthusiasts have been waiting for this moment for years.
188
They said, Logan, show us the footage, show us the footage.
189
I showed Bob Lazar the footage.
190
And I did it on my friend Jesse Michael's show.
191
It's called American Alchemy.
192
I think it's coming out sometime in the next week or so.
193
But this alien shit's getting serious, y'all.
194
In fact, there is a poly market on whether or not the United States will confirm the existence of aliens by 2027,
195
which is crazy.
196
It's only an 18% chance to me.
197
I feel like all these disclosure movies and coming out,
198
I feel like we're so close.
199
Like all the dominoes are about to topple,
200
but I'm excited about that.
201
If you guys want to buy at that market,
202
polymarket.com, link in the description.
203

204

206
Austin Theory, and it's really cool.
207

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
