I am here with Marshawn Lynch.
Young Hollywood is in.
No, I want to get comfy with you. Quats are easy for you. They're not easy for you.
Yeah, this is fine. I'll take what I can get. I'm I'm not mad at you. I just want you to be comfortable, baby.
Young Hollywood is in Beast mode. Oh yeah, you know I got my Skittles off top. Off top, I got my Skittles. You have some for us? You have some for Young Hollywood?
I do not have any Skittles with me right now, but if you come to the game, there will be a lot of Skittles.
Do we get to be on the sidelines with you? I'm not sure. You got a microphone. I should be asking you that. Can you tell us why this foundation, Fam First? What do you how do you bring because of your experiences and your background, a fresh take? A lot of celebrities are involved with charities. How do you bring a fresh take to it in with your foundation?
Because I'm actually involved hands-on. There's anything that's going on with the foundation. Me and my cousin are the focal point of it. So if we don't say it go, then it don't go, and if we do say it go, then it goes. So I mean, you know, there's no one who's actually running it for us. There's people who we have in positions that help us and will put the right put us in the right light or or put us on the right track to make it go. But overall, we have the final say so on what goes on with it.
You're an A-lister on the field and you're unstoppable. Advice. Your A-list advice to being unstoppable in life.
It's simple. If you make your mind up on it, just go for it. I mean, you know, a lot of people put a lot of thought into things and I think that's where they get thrown off by it. But if you just put it in simple black and white for yourself, if it's what you want and it's what you believe, then it's what you do, and it's how you go after it. Because no matter what it is that you got your mind set up on, if Josh was to tell me that our foundation wasn't wasn't what we wanted or what we needed, I would say he's a damn fool because it's exactly how I feel and it's exactly what I want to do. It's give back to my community. So there's no one that could stop me from doing what it is exactly that I want to do. Now, I've been through it all. I've been on the top, I've been on the bottom, I've been in the middle. And I mean, it's just it's just crazy to the things that I've been through that I have overcome. So I will say that if there's something that you feel, do it, but know the consequences for it. I've been in positions where I've felt something, I've done it, and I had to deal with the consequences. My mind was strong enough that I didn't let it affect me and I was able to bounce back from it.
