Gaethje rejoicing when Dustin knocked out Saint-Dennis and now Dustin calling for Justin to be on his 5 a side against the Aliens? damn, now that's class 🤝🤝
yea but i gotta say hes quite a dud of a guest. Theo couldnt just get much of a conversation flowing with him, had to ask him questions interview style the whole episode just to keep him talking. I know i wont be missing anything if i never see another Porier podcast appearance in my life
@@nunyabizwacks6711 Have to agree. I love Dustin, but this was stressful to listen to- poor Theo pulling teeth to get something going for a good conversation. I don't hold it against Dustin, as I'm sure you don't either, he's just obviously not much of a "talker", so not the best guest for a podcast. 🤷🏻♀️
When Poirier discusses that mindset after a loss it reminds me of a quote from a decade ago that I either heard somewhere or thought of myself… “A man’s worst enemy is his own mind.”
Damn, just Theo saying 'don't outspend yourself' for tickets get's me choked up. Good man. (I can afford it now but there was I time I couldn't.) . Love this dude.
Lets go! Same here as a Civil engineer, Im excited to have this one for a busy work day today. Theo staryed off the podcast asking for one of Dustin's hands 😂I already know this is gonna be a good one lol
Dustin no UFC fan ever think you are as good as your last fight! You was great, you are great and you will be great! If you win or lose. You have shown us so many times what and who you are. Much love from Europe!
Yeah after Dustin gets a little more comfortable saying whatever on the mic it would be hilarious. He's a funny guy I can tell he just wants to protect the image
@@christophersullivan576 yeah I actually had no clue! I'm a bit out of touch. Definitely picked up on that when they started mentioning texting each other. Good to know that there are some decent people who attain fame. They seem decent from the outside at least.
i swear theos fanbase is half insane, or dumb or sonething. Yall make the biggest deal out of every sentence this man utters then try to tell everyone how genius it was
Dustin always my fav fighter cuz he the most real. All the other dudes got some sort of persona to play and Dustin just a guy trynna be happy. He’s so straight to the point to so there’s no confusion. Just seems like such a genuine dude
Dustin the ufc community would never throw you away - you've cemented your legacy as one of the greatest fighters to ever grace the octagon - and theo Man the world needs more Theos ❤
Imagine a buddy cop style action movie with Poirer and Theo where Theo plays the care free chill guy and Poirer is the serious one with a loving family
Poirier might be my favorite all time guest, in the contending w/ the Bobby Lees of the world. That Louisiana chemistry comes through, always a fun listen.
"I just can't do this right now, Life is too much I'm going to get back on them" Theo when you said that I felt it in my soul. I'm actually going back to my doctor tomorrow to request to get back on my antidepressant meds even though I haven't been on them for 15 years. I just feel that struggle coming back on and I don't want to be in that dark place. Thank you for speaking up about that. It makes me feel less weak about having to make this decision.
Dustin is super intelligent! Must be something in that Louisiana water. Great interview, Theo. You have universal appeal. I'm a married 60 year old woman with a 28 and 32 year old daughters, and we all love you. Keep up all the great work! ❤
Watching Theo talk about how he feels completely resonates with me. I feel exactly the same and its been quite a struggle to appreciate what I have and what I've worked for and its never satisfying cause it always feels like I havent done enough to live up to what I want to even though I am where I wanted to be a couple of years ago. Watching Theos podcasts have made me appreciate a lot of things and brings a smile after a long day. What he makes is truly beautiful.
I’m a business owner from Louisiana as well. Y’all keep crushing it and repping the state. Just wanted to say thank y’all for digging into the ups and downs and the struggle we go through during the downs. Really helped me a lot to see a couple champs are going through the same things I deal with as far as the mental fight against myself. I got a big win today and celebrating with my fav podcast! Keep crushing it, rooting for both of you
1:13:39 - "there's a lot of organ donors in there" what an epic reference from something an hour before at the very end to close us out 🤣 🤣 🤣 killedddd me
I met Dustin at my father's place in Beaux Bridge , LA when my dad has a mutual friend with Dustin. This was before he got real popular but he is a down to earth individual, really cool and awesome to see where he has gotten to in his career
Dustin really dodged that depression medicine question quickly. As a fighter, he knows he won't hear the end of certain things said. We're judged in every step we take, wild ride y'all.....
Really? I thought the episode was pretty bad and I’m a huge Theo fan. He was constantly trying to think of things to say and it was so obvious and awkward.
It's good to hear a young man with all of the adversities in life still moving forward regardless. When we fall pick yourself up and get it. I've watched Dustin since the WEC days and being able to watch him grow has been inspiring.
I'm almost 50 years old and Dustin has been an inspiration for me for many years now. Dustin, it's just a feeling, brother. It will pass and if you acknowledge it and move on, life will get better. Stay strong, you're always going to be on top in our eyes. Your family, businesses, careers, foundation. You're doing it! Live your best life and don't let fame get to you.
Theo's podcast and articulation of pretty deep and complex concepts and turning them into positive funny moments is so cool and unique. As well as getting better every week.
Im so happy for all your success, Theo! You deserve everything you created! You Crack me up and are such a great interviewer. Thank you for all your hard work!

Easy to say when you make millions in the MMA
"He was a good man"

He actually gets Theo's outlandish jokes, really good chemistry!!

Makes my whole work day with a new podcast. Nobody provides the positive energy Theo does. Love this friendship too
Especially a guy like Dustin who just got a huge knockout victory at ufc 299. Really glad he’s back in the win column! The Louisiana bad boy 💎!
