Gatlin has no egos. He is never insecure about giving great compliments to his competitors when they deserve it. I love that about him. Sending you lots of love from Ghana 🇬🇭 🇬🇭🇬🇭
He is no longer competing. Career is over so there are no threats. Now it's time to sit back, smile and reminisce. You cannot achieve great success with out a massive ego.
Agree, but still sometime people hold grudges.he doesn’t . This podcast is gold for track and field passionate. And passionate about the history of the sport not just the newest sensation. I hope lots of youngsters can appreciate it i was passed on the love for this sport from My dad and i never practiced it, but i would be taken by him every year to the golden gala in rome. It was a summer date that i grew fond of. I tookmy 3 boys to the golden gala and they all practiced track and field and my eldest is now a 19 year-old trainer. He is training young kids for the time being , but they all got their taste of this wonderful sport.

@@mericab3110 why said Lie some of us do. He was just a shy young man, raised in the church, never been to a party until he leaves his parent’s house. He is a wonderful person, I can see that and never met him.
Hey Justin let me tell you this, I can promise you that everybody in Jamaica knows you. You are as famous as all the other athletes in Jamaica. The only thing you don’t have is a Statue
I'm jamaican, these brothers are so great. They brought out the best in Usain Bolt. Justin Gatlin, will go down in history, as one of the greatest sprinter of all time. Jamaicans are your rivals, but they love and respect you a lot. Big up bra !!❤
Big respect to Asafa, Justin and Rodney. It’s good to see veterans come together and chop it up. So much 💎 in this convo that benefits the athlete and the fans equally. 🙌🏽💫🍾
Love seeing the ol' lions enjoying each other's company! FIERCE competitors but now a shared experience that very few that ever lived have experienced!
Get Bolt on this podcast so we can hear from him! Yall are gonna need at least 2 hours and 30 minutes because his litany of accomplishments is just that expansive
They said they will only reach out if the boys want it. They said that they have tried to reach out first to other people before, tried to help and they feel like they wasted their own time
Asafa has an interview with Bolt where they say the same things the other comments say. Bolt said that even on things like financial advice, they call him a hater. Can you imagine the ignorance to not want to take advice from the greatest ever?
Man I think somebody had some voodoo doll on Asafa because I myself always wondered why Asafa lost races. I'd literally see just how ready he was before the race and then something just happens outta nowhere. Always broke my heart. Asafa you and Gatlin are my track heroes all day everyday. Salute to you champs
I don’t like to think like this but it’s true and Same for Yohan Blake too it hurt me to see that he’s not even on the Olympics team this year.. but Blake told his story about what he went through spiritually
@@TrendingNow.1ENT yeah.. what athletes go through in their personal lives is something that is overlooked so much it is crazy how selfish we the fans sometimes can be, always looking for a great performance from the athletes. But forget to realize they can't give us that if they mind ain't in the right place and spiritually too
Black Jamaican and the black Americans are in deed 2 of the greatest nation,same family, same bloodline. Our forefathers and their forefathers serve slavery together. So it's always good for the brendren to dwell, in unity together.
Justin Gatlin my American GOAT & shout out to TG. Powell always been one of my faves too. Hard rooting for 🇯🇲 but you and bolt were different 🔥 you all carried that baton and generation. Thank you! & thanks for the podcasts!
Enjoyed the openness of this interaction and the advocacy from all sides. Happy to see the new bridge built between you two legends of the sport. Kudos!
I so thoroughly enjoyed this program. Im a Jamaican and like most,we had this dislike for Justin Gatling, but snce tuning in to this podcast and especially after listening to this segment, my respect has gone to another level for this man as a person. You are indeed a LEGEND bro. Much respect also to our local LEGEND Asafa Powell and the other gentleman on the program (my bad for not remembering his name) and you all fulljoy Mrs. Powell's oxtail dinner. Keep doing and much respect 🙏
I could sit and watch this episode for the next five hours i learn so much about Asafa and Justin you guys were meant to friends it's just the right Asafa Justin Rodney pure greatness 🇯🇲🇯🇲
This was a treat! Thank you Hearing these stories are amazing Asafa and gatlin are 2 of the best technicians of all time. Mo Greene and ato are the pioneers who built the drive phase etc but gat and Asafa refined it with grace, power and elegance
I loved asafa every time he lost I cried. I remember everything he spoke about. I was 7 n I remember in particular Athens 2004 how I cried. Let me tell you he can’t do no wrong for me he made me proud to be a Jamaican he did it first. All hast to Usain cause that’s the 🐐 but asafa will always have a special place in my heart ❤️
Good day I must say over the past few weeks I have tried not to miss an episode of your podcast. I just loved the discussions with Rodney yourself and our hero Asafa . Your programme provides a lovely insight from athlete's perpective. I am so glad that you felt at home in Jamaica and you were able to feel the real vibes of our country. Please come again and this time go right around the country
Man. I found this channel (and subscribed) about 2 weeks ago and love it! Its great seeing track and field talked about from the perspective of some of the greatest ever. Please interview some of the greats from the 80s.
We just need Usain Bolt in this gathering to make it complete!! Great rivalry But RESPECT 🫡 is the Order of the Day!! Love the VIBES!! I am a Jamaican Born but not Bred 😮 But I love my country. Justin (The Gun) Gatlin we ever Hated you but we were aware of the threat you pose to our Guys.
Amazing!! I really enjoyed watching this. This is what I expected to see in SPRINT, you know the storytelling behind and how you guys transcend this rivalry 💯
I enjoyed this episode. A great rivalry without bitterness. It revealed the other side that these athletes put their body on the line to succeed. They make no excuses for failures or successes. In sum, they all want better treatment for athletes that make the finals of a competition irrespective of who wins.
Yes Gatlin’s Olympic title was huge! We have not had that in 20 years❗️ Crazy. Lastly this was such a great interview. Asafa is the technical 🐐 ❗️ The interview was 🔥
This is such a beautiful thing to see. I remember watching the rivalry between the Americans and the Jamaicans on the tracks throughout the years and never thought I'd witness a conversation like this. As a fellow islander, I was rooting for Jamaica of course...still rooting for them lol. I enjoy the podcast so much. Keep up the great work!
Big up to you guys for doing this man...I really love this! Shout out to Justin...I love the growth bro so keep doing your thing. Asafa is a GOAT no matter what anyone says so big up to him always...coach, keep your beard up #OneLove
These interviews got me to relive the best days of the best sprinters of all time these kids dont run anymore. BUT THESE OANS HMMMMM they were heaven sent.
I really enjoyed this episode. The camaraderie and interaction between everyone was excellent. I like this format and would love to see more episodes like this. Please include more guest interviews with other athletes. Hats off to Asafa and would love to have him back for more.
I really enjoyed this interview. I remember watching Justin and Asafa races many times. Never hated Justin, but as long as a Jamaican was in that race Justin you were enemy #1 after the race we love you again. Great interview and glad to also learn the other side of Justin too . More cooler than I thought. ❤🎉
These guys were like super hero’s… To see humans achieve the athleticism they did was incredible and I am so happy I was alive to witness it. Blessings to them and more of this please
This podcast was amazing. Asafa was always my favorite sprinter I followwd him since the beginning of his career. It's also amazing to hear the stories from Justin and get the perspective from the Goats of the golden era of sprinting. Thank you for posting this and I hope we get many more like this.
Racing like fighting. It's deep rooted in our instincts as human - pure entertainment. Put on the race between y'all two and enough folks will want to tune in!
I really appreciate this show because it really let us know or knew what's going on behind the scenes because when people don't know a lot is left on for assumption so I really appreciate what yall are doing so keep it up 👊😎
i must say i have a lot of respect for you mr gatlin but as asafa says you race one jamaican you are racing the entire Jamaica thats just how passionate we are , thank you for being you, you guys make track&field special for us.WE READY FI THE FINAL RACE PLEASE😂
JUSTIN def deserves a statue. I wouldn't be shocked if he gets an honorary one in yard first. lol. BUT the GREATEST respect to da king for always recognizing his cousins in the Caribbean and abroad.
AND here's the thing fellas, we are all related and all at the very least a percentage Nigerian Igbo, Akan, Mende and West Africa minimum. we all share these regardless of how much indigenous or European we may have in us , we also have these tribes in common so we are all distant cousins. This is great stuff. Respect from a Saint Lucian
I initially thought this channel was going to be US-centric and biased but I'm so happy I gave it a chance. Like Asafa said, the lack of social media back then means there's so much we (the supporters) didn't know. I'm excited to see this channel grow as more athletes share their stories. Get VCB please mi a beg yuh...she and Felix together!

He was so insecure he took performance enhancers
Very humble dude bless you mate
We need to get Bolt, Blake, Justin, Powell and Tyson in the same room for the culture
GATLIN, POWEL, BOLT AND BLAKE DESERVEEEEE A MOVIE!!!!!
Tyson Gay
Agreed!!! Tyson is right there!!
Tyson Gay is also a legend.
Bolt,Blake,Gatlin,Gay,Powell those 5 are Goats of 100m sprinting 🤘🏾💯🔥

@@andrephillips7764cry
Good to hear Asafar's perspective regarding his finals performances. We don't realise what these athletes go through.
Very, very true
I think Asafa Powell is the blueprint for sprinting. His techniques is beautiful to watch the way he sprint.
Absolutely beautifull.
He had the best form in sprinting, even Noah said it in a TH-cam short, he may not be the record holder, but his sprinting is poetry in motion

Get Bolt on this podcast so we can hear from him! Yall are gonna need at least 2 hours and 30 minutes because his litany of accomplishments is just that expansive
I hope Asafa and Usain reach out to our new boys and give them some words of encouragement. Our boys will need that, because they are still young!
They don't want it.
They said they will only reach out if the boys want it. They said that they have tried to reach out first to other people before, tried to help and they feel like they wasted their own time

@@wendellwhite5369 didn’t bolt get scammed for millions ?
The one guy who knows about finances is Gatlin. Hes always been smart.
Which boys are these because Usain's mom is like another mom to Oblique. Usain is still part of Racer's setup.
Thank you Asafa for sharing what happens in teh background , I will never look at that replay the same way again
Man I think somebody had some voodoo doll on Asafa because I myself always wondered why Asafa lost races. I'd literally see just how ready he was before the race and then something just happens outta nowhere. Always broke my heart. Asafa you and Gatlin are my track heroes all day everyday.

Big up Asafa Powell the Best Sprinter Technique in Track🇯🇲
RSG,you have done it again.These interviews are priceless moment.
The exhibition on the Vegas strip would be phenomenal! But add Usain and Tyson to make it epic. Good episode 💪
Black Jamaican and the black Americans are in deed 2 of the greatest nation,same family, same bloodline. Our forefathers and their forefathers serve slavery together. So it's always good for the brendren to dwell, in unity together.
Justin Gatlin my American GOAT & shout out to TG. Powell always been one of my faves too. Hard rooting for 🇯🇲 but you and bolt were different 🔥 you all carried that baton and generation. Thank you! & thanks for the podcasts!
Bro track and field aint the same with USA vs Jamaica rivalry..one love but we coming for you in Paris
I sat back and watched this from start to finish . I thoroughly enjoyed it . We need more of you two . It was in indeed therapeutic and refreshing.
Enjoyed the openness of this interaction and the advocacy from all sides. Happy to see the new bridge built between you two legends of the sport. Kudos!
Nicely worded ❤
I would LOVE to see an exhibition. bring in tyson gay and usain bolt too and it would be CRAZY
Asafa would win
Asafa was my favourite sprinter. He's as cool as it gets. I'm not happy he was never able to break the big competition jinx.
I so thoroughly enjoyed this program. Im a Jamaican and like most,we had this dislike for Justin Gatling, but snce tuning in to this podcast and especially after listening to this segment, my respect has gone to another level for this man as a person.

Would definitely love to see this race between the two LEGENDS!!
Gatlin has reached where i want to reach in terms of ego management and self confidence
I was looking at the shorts and the TH-cam algorithms kicked in and displayed the interview. Thanks YT. Loved the Interview

He's the most imitated starter in the world😂. And the toe drag is next low-key🤣🤣🤣
These days listening to Justin pad cast wow lots of Respect.
This was a treat! Thank you

Asafa and gatlin are 2 of the best technicians of all time. Mo Greene and ato are the pioneers who built the drive phase etc but gat and Asafa refined it with grace, power and elegance

Good day
I must say over the past few weeks I have tried not to miss an episode of your podcast. I just loved the discussions with Rodney yourself and our hero Asafa . Your programme provides a lovely insight from athlete's perpective. I am so glad that you felt at home in Jamaica and you were able to feel the real vibes of our country. Please come again and this time go right around the country
Man. I found this channel (and subscribed) about 2 weeks ago and love it! Its great seeing track and field talked about from the perspective of some of the greatest ever.
Please interview some of the greats from the 80s.
Oh Lord, I was waiting so long for this episode to drop and it was totally worth it.
What a lovely interview and it was amazing to hear about the legends Maurice, Linford, Malcolm, Frankie etc.
All legends beautiful interview 😊
We just need Usain Bolt in this gathering to make it complete!! Great rivalry But RESPECT 🫡 is the Order of the Day!!
Love the VIBES!!
I am a Jamaican Born but not Bred 😮 But I love my country.
Justin (The Gun) Gatlin we ever Hated you but we were aware of the threat you pose to our Guys.
Amazing!! I really enjoyed watching this. This is what I expected to see in SPRINT, you know the storytelling behind and how you guys transcend this rivalry 💯
So happy that found this podcast! Great interview
This is an amazing podcast btw. So glad to hear thoughts around the 2004-2012 era. Considering in watch these races almost daily 😅
I'm gonna watch this more than twice for sure....
I enjoyed this episode. A great rivalry without bitterness. It revealed the other side that these athletes put their body on the line to succeed. They make no excuses for failures or successes. In sum, they all want better treatment for athletes that make the finals of a competition irrespective of who wins.
Gatlin Olympic Champion at 21 is an absolutely insane feat. Stacks up with Mike Tyson becoming HW champ at 21 in my Opinion.
Yes Gatlin’s Olympic title was huge! We have not had that in 20 years❗️ Crazy. Lastly this was such a great interview. Asafa is the technical 🐐 ❗️ The interview was 🔥
Say it loud asafa....love him now because of you❤❤❤
Love this. Nuff Respect ❤️

Happy to see Asafa get this level of respect. Good one RSG!
