Transcript excerpt

I now have body dysmorphia. You know Obsidian in Bali? It is quite literally a place where everyone is jacked. Everyone is so lean. Everyone is so jacked. I thought I had a pretty decent physique. I think I possibly have the worst physiques tier. I gotta get my shit together. I gotta put on way more muscle. I gotta lose no much more body fat and it's deadly when you put yourself in an environment where everyone is well above you. Like you have the best physiques in the world here. So it's, it's time to lock in.
