All right, I just wanted to jump on here real quick and uh talk about this whole dynamic between Johnny Bravo, Larry Wheels, and now entering Adam 22. If you guys saw the video that Johnny Bravo did, which Johnny Bravo was really entertaining. I mean, he really does a good job of putting out some great content. Um so for those of you who don't know who Adam 22 is, Adam 22 has the has the uh podcast YouTube channel called No Jumper, very successful, huge, huge podcast. Millions of views, millions of viewers, rather, subscribers. His wife is uh Elena the Plug. Okay, and he makes no bones about it. There are videos of her with other men. This is his wife. There are adult content videos of her with other men, and they actually sell the videos, and according to Adam22, they have made a fortune together. Okay. Larry Wheels, his wife's name is I wrote it down. So it was a Sheila Williams. She is a uh Instagram model, and they kind of got married out of the blue, and there are rumors floating around that Larry Wheels uh has this fetish where he likes to see his wife with other men, know that she's with other men, likes for her not to shower after she's with other men so he could be with her after that. Um so there are these fetishes that are the fetishes, I apologize. There are these rumors floating around that he's into these fetishes. Johnny Bravo does a video on it, and Johnny Bravo actually shows these text messages from a WhatsApp text showing the messages between Larry and his wife. Larry denies all these claims. Larry says on every channel that he goes on, every interview that he does, that these are lies, that this is 2026, and a text message dialogue can be created, that it's not real. Johnny Bravo says this is real. He's also actually um spoken to, I believe, Larry, I think, I think Johnny Bravo's lawyer spoke to Larry Wheels manager, if I'm not correct. But he has other sources that say that this is true. And Johnny Bravo, I mean, I don't know where he gets his sources from. The guy is just a plethora of sources. He he he really puts great content out if you like this kind of content, if you like this kind of drama. I kind of want to delve into it a little bit because I think Johnny Bravo's missing the bigger picture here. Um, basically, what had happened was he made a new video. What had happened was uh Larry Wheels and Adam 22 were out at an event. I think it was a boxing match, and they were at this event in the audience and they met, and there's video of them talking. And Adam 22 goes goes over to uh Larry, introduces himself. This was the first time they were uh introduced. And Adam 22 says to him, I think you took the title of cuck of the year for 2026, because I was cuck of the year 2024. Now, of course, if you guys don't know what cuck holding is, that is a man who likes to see his wife with other women. Okay. I believe the phrase comes from the uh cuckoo bird. I believe the I believe the female birds would leave their eggs in other birds' nests so that they could raise them, right? I believe that's where the phrase comes from. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm I'm pretty sure it's it's accurate. That's where it comes from. So from cuckoo bird, it's it becomes cuck, right? Because back in the day, before we had modern medicine, the only way you knew if it was your kid is if you were the only person that was with your wife, which is why marrying a virgin was so important back in the day, right? You certainly didn't want your bloodline to end not knowing it, okay? But today with modern medicine, we could just know by DNA tests and so on and so forth. Anyway, Johnny Bravo basically says that Anna 22 does this, did this for money. Now, apparently he takes these videos, he sells them, and he's made a fortune um selling a video with his wife with other men. Uh now, morally, I disagree with this completely. Um, I think certain things are sacred, and your wife should be one of those things that are held sacred. I would not be treating my wife that way. I wouldn't want my wife to do something, not want my wife to do something. Whatever somebody else does is fine, but to me, sounds like you sold your soul for profit and using your wife as a tool for profit. And it to me, I'm I'm not in agreement with that. Okay, I think marriage is a little bit more sacred than that. Now, Johnny Bravo's point was he thinks that it's even worse with Larry because Larry doesn't make any money from it, he just gets turned on by it, he just likes it, and he shows all the disgusting text messages. I think John is missing the bigger picture here. I think what he's saying about Larry is accurate, but I think there's more to it than just him getting turned on. If you look at how Larry Wheels came up, Larry Wheels blew up onto social media very young as a power lifter because he is freaky strong, freaky muscular, freaky huge, and he blew up very young. And this is how he makes a living. Okay. And then every time Larry is kind of fading out of the social media relevance, he does something different. Um, I've made videos in the past kind of like poking fun at it, where I said, you know, make up your mind, Larry, what do you want to do? Right. Because he I said he's getting paid to figure out what he wants to do with his life. Okay. Because first he sort of a powerlifter, he did bodybuilding, he did classic physique, he did strongman, he did arm wrestling, he did the slap contest. He even went as far as to do sumo wrestling. So it seems like every time his relevance as a social media influencer dies down, he does something even more drastic to try and become relevant again. And what I think is happening is I think his identity is him being this social media influencer. And I think that the validation of him being a social media influencer is addicting to him. Now I'm sure that the his sexual arrangement with his wife, um, if it's true or if it's not, I don't know. I tend to believe Johnny Bravo because he's really good at digging up all this digging up all this information on people. I don't know how he does it, but he does it. But I think what is happening is Larry Wheels has has been thrown into social media relevance at a very young age. Whether he expected to blow up on the scene at a very young age like he did or not, it happened. And I think his identity revolves around him being validated as a social media influencer, even if he has to embarrass himself with these text messages and these conversations about his wife. And the reason why I'm saying that is because there are two reasons why I think this is the case. Um, and I don't think it's gonna be healthy for Larry in the long run, because if your identity is what other people think of you, if your identity is what validation you get from social media, that is a very dangerous path because that means that um the only satisfaction you get out of life is from what other people do, what other people think of you, from what other people from other people talking about you. Okay. I say this for two reasons. One, um, he continues to do more and more crazy things. So, like I said, started powerlifting, bodybuilding, classic physique, strongman, arm wrestling, uh slap contests, uh uh sumo wrestling. And then I think it got to the point where when he did the sumo wrestling thing, everybody kind of threw in the towel with Larry Wheels. Like, okay, guy, you know, enough is enough. This is getting ridiculous. And I think he just took the next step because he needs that validation to secure his identity as a social media personality. And I think it's becoming an addiction, and I don't think it's gonna end well for him. Now, I might be wrong, I might be right. One way in which I think that I will be proven right is what he does next. If he takes another step to do something even more creative, to be validated again as a social media influencer, then odds are I'm accurate. And the other reason why I say it is because anytime anybody brings it up, whether it was Adam 22 at this boxing match, whether he goes on another podcast and people ask him about it, whether he uh Johnny Bravo brings it up and he denies the allegations, he doesn't shut it down. He welcomes the conversation. Even though he says it's not true and it's made up and it's all AI, and you can create a conversation, he still welcomes the conversation. If somebody said a lie about me, one of two things would happen. One, I would sue that person for defamation, okay, especially if I'm a huge social media influencer like Larry Wheels. And two, I would shut down the conversation immediately if anybody brought it up, especially if it was a lie. But the first thing I would do is hire a lawyer and sue Johnny Bravo for defamation. Because if it is a lie, and that if it is a lie, that is a terrible lie. So, one, I don't think it's a lie because these things are not happening. He's not suing, and he welcomes the conversation. I think the idea of his identity being a validated social media influencer is his addiction at this point. And I don't think it's gonna end well for him. Because sooner or later, if you don't bring substance, if you don't bring information, if you don't bring something of positivity, of substance, of a topic that you know well, then you are just going to be somebody who is trying to do the next uh trick or the next uh crazy thing to be validated again. Somebody who's trying to do the next stunt. And every recently Larry's videos have been how these allegations are lies. So he dives headfirst into this, he doesn't avoid it. He doesn't avoid it. And if you were to sue somebody for defamation, you wouldn't be able to talk about it. And you would say, look, I can't talk about this, okay? These are legality issues because I'm I'm I have a I have a um a lawsuit against Johnny Barbara for lying about this, and he would take him to court, but that's not happening, which A leads me to believe that Johnny John is telling the truth, and B leads me to believe that Larry wants the exposure, and that's my take on this. So once again, I think he gets turned on, maybe sexually turned on, but I think this is more of an addiction at this point. And don't think that this addiction isn't as dangerous as any other addiction, because what will be the next stunt that he will do to become validated again as a social media influencer? And like I said, if he does something even more crazy or he does another trick or another stunt, then I think my I think my assessment is accurate. Okay. I just wanted to jump on here and actually put together that video, give you guys something to think about. That's what I think this is happening, okay? I think it's a lot deeper than John, um, than Johnny Bravo thinks it is. Um, and again, Johnny Bravo's channel is hilarious. I mean, he puts out great content, he's hysterical, he's funny, okay? And he pulls no punches. And I kind of respect somebody that doesn't pull any punches, doesn't give a shit when he talks about Wes Watson and when he talks about Larry and go down the list. But okay, that's what I wanted to say about that. I'm gonna let you guys go. Uh, John Livia's series in some of this bodybuilding.
