ep. 11 Fighting Fox in Your Mom's B@%

Episode 11 of the No One's Watching Podcast. If you're watching this you shouldn't be.Marathon training is rolling. Ten minute mile pace is max right now. Running in eighty two degrees and almost got heat stroke on a tempo run this week. About to drive eleven hours to South Carolina for a family vacation with twenty two people, eight of them under the age of four. That's not a vacation. That's parenting in another location. Gotta run a thirteen K long run on Sunday morning after arriving. Plan is to beat the sun up and pray.World Cup update. US beat Bosnia off a beautiful free kick. Red card on Balogun was absurd. Germany lost me a fifteen leg parlay by losing to Paraguay in PKs. Second time Germany has cost me money in the World Cup. Macedonia in 2021 was the first. I'm done betting on Germany.Love Island movie night happened and the villa is in shambles. KC still can't form a sentence. Anaya is milking it. Trinity looks like she eats bugs. Sincere is a little baby child man telling everyone different things. Mackenzie has been with four guys and somehow Gabe got kicked out for talking to two girls. Gal has a hairpiece and veneers at twenty five and looks like he should be somewhere else entirely.Then the main event. Marine Corps boot camp. The full story. Joined on a whim at twenty one after dropping out of college and playing D3 football. First branch that called back was the Marines. Had to cut from 260 to 207 in a month and a half. Sauna twice a day, working out twice a day, barely eating. Shipped at 207. Gained twenty pounds back in forty eight hours before boot camp started. Showed up at 227. They keep you up for seventy two hours to see if you lied about anything on your paperwork. Seventy five percent of the room just fell asleep.Swim qualification with a size 10 left boot and a size 15 right boot at size 13 feet. Felt like Nemo with the special fin. Drill instructor couldn't look at me without laughing because I made a stupid face every time. We communicated through sound only after that. No eye contact.A kid ran an 18:30 three mile on the final PFT, collapsed four steps past the finish line, and got the silver bullet six times on the way to the hospital. They pull your pants down and shove a metal rod in your butt to check your temperature. Six times. Just leave it in at that point.Our step-off ditty was "fighting fox in your mom's box." Drill instructor pulled his cover down, walked away, looked over his shoulder, said "Smith, you're fucking weird." We used it.Best decision I ever made. Set me up for everything. California for five years, VA loan, education, all of it. Would I have said that while I was in? Who knows.📱 TikTok & Instagram: stopwatching.today 🎥 YouTube: stopwatching-today
