Yes this is a dangerous title. I am not advocating for anyone to try and hurt themselves. 

This episode is inspired by Steve-0 and his video PCP Saved My Life. Also a very dangerous title. But if you've ever seen this video. Chances are you'll never try PCP. And my hopes are after you listen to my episode you'll never try to kill yourself. 

Steve-O's Wild Ride podcast influenced me to start Don't Be A Crab. His ability to be open and honest about his past is very authentic. One of the most important things I've learned is people are attracted to authenticity. 

So here is my story as authentic as I can tell it at the moment. 

I also want to almost get this topic out of the way. Yes it's the genesis of Don't Be A Crab but it will not be the theme. 

Hopefully next episode will be my first interview. 

THANK YOU ALWAYS TO truthinthisart for the upload.

Christmas Day 2020 Dave Portnoy and Barstool Sports saved my business by blessing Dough Boy Fresh Pretzel Co with The Barstool Fund. 

What they didn't know was they also saved my life. Because on December 16, 2020 I actually tried to kill myself. Thankfully I was unsuccessful because on December 17, 2020 I saw Dave's video about the Barstool Fund. And a week later on Christmas morning we had it. 

But the money isn't what saved my life. It was the new mentality they introduced me to through listening to one of their podcasts 51 Strokes. A mentality to combat the "Crabs In A Barrel" mentality. A mentality I would like to share.  

So as DBFPC starts its long awaited expansion plan in 2022. I'll be transitioning into a new role at DBFPC and I will also be starting Don't Be A Crab. 

Don't Be A Crab will hopefully be my Fuck, That's Delicious with Action Bronson. 

Action Bronson has inspired me for awhile now and now with him taking his health and well being serious. I thought I should,

I thought I should do the same.
