    Stranger Told Him to Deliver a Car. It Was Mike Tyson's. | George Sukunyan

    Let us know what you think! When George Sukunyan was born, doctors told his family not to hope. He changed six schools, got expelled, and dropped out. By every measure the world uses to decide who succeeds, he wasn't supposed to be the one. Today he's one of the most trusted names in luxury automotive logistics — moving the world's most expensive cars for the most iconic dealerships in the country. In this episode of INSIGHT, George tells the story nobody would believe: the Italian mentor at LAX who handed him his livelihood and asked only that he pass it on. The stranger who trusted him to deliver a Lamborghini and a Hayabusa — to Mike Tyson's house. Ending up in Tyson's ring. And how a kid the system gave up on built an empire on the one thing no one gives a diploma for: trust. It's also a story about giving back — why he opens his doors for charity, what a baseball legend taught him about what actually matters, and why, after everything, he still calls the man who helped him, once a year, every year. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 The baby they said wouldn't live 00:29 How a written-off kid becomes the man everyone trusts 01:43 Six schools, expelled at 16, and why 04:35 Dropping out, and the bread truck 05:10 The Italian at LAX who changed everything 06:56 "Don't sell it.

    He Wrote the Book on Artsakh's Food. Two Years Later, Artsakh Was Gone. | Ara Zada

    Let us know what you think! He grew up thinking hummus was Armenian food. It took a trip to Armenia in 2015 to realize how much he didn't know — and it sent him village to village, recipe to recipe, all the way to Artsakh, documenting a cuisine right before the world changed. Ara Zada is a chef, bestselling author, and the person who arguably made Armenian food cool to people who'd never heard the word before. In this conversation, we talk about what it means to document a place and then lose access to it, the diaspora question nobody says out loud — whether he was ever told he wasn't Armenian enough — what hate actually looks like in his comment section versus his DMs, and the immigrant grit behind his grandfather's journey from doctor to janitor to business owner. He also explains why choosing joy isn't the same as avoiding grief, and gives one of the most useful, three-word philosophies on mastering anything we've heard on this show.

    He Survived 10 Overdoses and Came Back From the Edge. He Has a Message for Every Terrified Mother.

    Let us know what you think! He was stealing liquor at seven. Smoking by eight. By fifteen, he'd had his first overdose. By twenty-seven, he'd attempted suicide three times and spent eleven days in a coma. Ash Vardanyan is in long-term recovery — clean since December 15, 2011 — and now runs treatment programs, including work specifically with veterans. In this conversation, he goes through what he calls the real story, not the headline version: the childhood trauma that preceded the addiction, what actually happens inside a relapse, what treatment centers don't tell desperate families, and why he believes shame does as much damage as the drug itself. Near the end, he speaks directly to two people who may be watching: a parent terrified their child is using, and someone still in it right now. This is a conversation about addiction, recovery, and the difference between hope and action.

    She's Seen Botox Blind People: An Aesthetic Doctor on the $3 Injections Destroying Faces

    Let us know what you think! Botox is a neurotoxin. Most people getting it never think about that once. We sat down with Dr. Yeranui Stepanyan, who runs an aesthetic medical practice in Beverly Hills and has also worked urgent care, to talk about what almost nobody says out loud in this industry: why a great deal on filler should scare you more than excite you, what "Ozempic face" actually looks like and why it happens, how hormones and even your menstrual cycle change the way your body responds to a needle, and the real difference between a licensed provider and someone with a certification bought online. Most consultations end with a price and a before-and-after photo. We asked about the oath behind the needle, the patients she's had to turn away, and what she's seen go catastrophically wrong. Timestamps: 00:00 Cold open: this could blind you 0:52 Intro 2:00 Meet Dr. Yeranui Stepanyan 2:17 The one thing nobody tells you in consultation 7:46 The $3 Botox problem 8:42 The kidney transplant test 9:26 The oath behind the needle 11:47 The red flag everyone ignores 12:18 It's literally a toxin 14:36 The 70-year-old and the TikTok request 17:21 Should you start Botox in your 20s? 20:19 Are GLP-1s a magic pill? 20:26 What "Ozempic face" actually looks like 30:54 Why men are finally getting Botox Full episode above.

    Spider-Man's Tombstone Opens Up: Growing Up Black With Albinism in South Central | Marvin 'Jones III

    Let us know what you think! Marvin "Krondon" Jones III plays Tombstone in Spider-Man: Brand New Day — but before the rap career, the acting career, and the biggest role of his life, he was a seven-year-old boy in South Central Los Angeles whose own community didn't know what to make of him: a Black man born with albinism, in a city where almost no one looked like him. In this conversation, Krondon opens up about the identity battle that shaped him, the faith that gave him language for his purpose, why his own rarity may have kept him out of the streets that consumed so many young men around him, and what it actually means to be a man when no one taught you the words for it. He also shares the story of the night a legendary West African musician grabbed his face backstage and told him, in a language he didn't understand, exactly who he was. This is a conversation about representation, faith, masculinity, and the difference between being ordinary and being extraordinary — from a man who's spent his life redefining what "different" means. 🎬 Marvin "Krondon" Jones III plays Tombstone in Spider-Man: Brand New Day, in theaters now.

    He Trains $100,000 Protection Dogs for LA's Richest Families. He Says Most Protection Dogs Are Fake.

    Let us know what you think! They pepper sprayed his client's dogs for 24 minutes. The dogs went back, cleaned their eyes, and attacked again. And again. Until neighbors called the police and the intruders ran. Those dogs were trained by Mike Israeli, founder of Delta K9 Academy, the man LA's wealthiest families call when they want protection that doesn't fail. His dogs have made the news for stopping home invasions. His clients include people who already spent six figures elsewhere and found out the hard way what they actually bought. Because here's what Mike told me: most of what's sold as a "protection dog" in this industry is fake. A dog that performs on training equipment and freezes in real life. In this episode, he explains exactly how to tell the difference, and why he'll personally play the attacker to prove a dog isn't what its owner was promised. We talk about why the dog sometimes chooses the owner. Why he's refused wealthy clients outright. What he really thinks about police K9 training (he knows this answer will make people angry, and he says it anyway). The legal reality of what happens when your dog bites an intruder. And the part nobody expects: why he holds back his own affection from the dogs he trains, so they can fully love the family they're going to protect. Mike came to this country and built something he calls a legacy, not a business. By the end of this conversation you'll understand why he means it. ⏱ CHAPTERS 00:47 "They taught me more than I taught them" 02:58 Why Delta exists: crime in LA and a dog named Graph 05:04 Fake dogs: the fraud inside the protection dog industry 07:25 A protection dog is a weapon: the owner problem 09:58 Training the kids, not just the dog 11:49 "Tell your dog to attack me" — how Mike tests a dog 17:26 The dog chooses the owner 18:38 What a $100,000 dog should actually do 24:17 Status symbol or security: who really buys these dogs 28:17 The law: when you're liable for a bite and when you're not 31:24 The pepper spray home invasion story 33:42 Criminals adapt, so the dogs must too 37:05 The clients Mike refuses 38:36 Holding back love: why Mike won't bond with Shadow 41:36 "Police dogs should be more trained" 45:19 Armenian families vs Beverly Hills families 48:21 What your dog eats is killing it 49:13 Before you spend $100,000: Mike's final answer 🎙 ABOUT INSIGHT INSIGHT is the first Armenian-English podcast in the US, hosted by Emma Sargsyan.

    What Movie Stars Are Really Like When No One Can Protect Them | Rigan Machado

    Let us know what you think! There is a room in Beverly Hills where fame means nothing. For 35 years, the most carefully managed people on the planet — Ashton Kutcher, Bradley Cooper, Robert Pattinson, Tom Hardy, Vin Diesel, Mel Gibson — have stepped onto its mats, where money can't save them, publicists can't protect them, and everybody taps. The man who runs that room is Rigan Machado: 8-time world champion, 365 wins and 0 losses, unbeaten for 13 years, trained within the Gracie family — the family that created Brazilian jiu-jitsu and founded the UFC's first dynasty. In this episode of INSIGHT with Emma Sargsyan, Rigan reveals what Hollywood's most powerful people are actually like when the performance stops. Which superstar arrived too shy to speak — and how long it took him to relax. Why Tom Hardy entered a jiu-jitsu competition as a nobody and won. Why celebrities become "balloons" — and what it takes to bring them back to earth. What 55 years on the mats taught him about ego, power, masculinity, and why his integrity was never for sale. This is not a conversation about martial arts. It's a conversation about what power does to a person when it can no longer protect them. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 The room in Beverly Hills 04:19 "I don't care who you are" — the first rule 04:51 Why Hollywood turns people into balloons 05:40 Why celebrities fall in love with jiu-jitsu 07:07 Robert Pattinson during Batman 08:51 Protecting actors before filming 10:33 Training celebrities inside their homes 12:08 What losing control does to powerful people 16:46 Tom Hardy's secret competition 18:09 "Is jiu-jitsu just a celebrity trend?" 19:56 Royce Gracie and the first UFC 22:13 Meeting his childhood heroes 23:23 Power, ego, and Beverly Hills 26:01 The beating that made him humble 29:53 Rio de Janeiro to Beverly Hills 32:42 Social media: the girl who invented a life 35:27 Masculinity in 2026 38:01 What tapping out really means 40:11 Directing films & Ashton Kutcher's advice 44:56 What jiu-jitsu took from him 46:34 How he reads people 47:59 A free class for INSIGHT viewers 50:01 Zion Clark: no limits --- 🎧 SUBSCRIBE for new episodes every Saturday, 1pm PT: 📩 From the Inside — Emma's monthly newsletter on PR, media and the stories behind these conversations: ▶️ Watch next — The Truth About Ronda Rousey's Losses | Edmond Tarverdyan: https://youtu.be/HscFDRss2pM?si=a-aZYT2YDiG1LYzu  — ABOUT RIGAN MACHADO Rigan Machado is an 8-time Brazilian jiu-jitsu world champion and coral belt with a competition record of 365-0, unbeaten across 13 years. A member of the legendary Machado family and cousin to the Gracies — the founders of Brazilian jiu-jitsu — he has taught more than 10,000 students and trained over 60 world champions.

    The Truth About Ronda Rousey's Losses. Her Coach Finally Talks.

    Let us know what you think! The most controversial coach in the history of women's MMA has never told the full story. Until now. Edmond Tarverdyan trained Ronda Rousey for five years. He was in her corner for every fight. He watched her become the most dominant champion women's MMA had ever seen — and then watched it fall apart in 48 seconds. He has been blamed for the losses. Called a terrible coach by her own mother. Analysed by Joe Rogan and every MMA commentator alive. In this conversation he finally says what he has never said publicly. What actually happened the night Ronda lost to Holly Holm — and why 28 days notice was only the beginning of the problem. What it was like when she could not drop half a pound after eight hours in a bathtub and they had to fight in Australia in the morning. Why he says Joe Rogan's analysis is wrong. What he wishes he had done differently. The brain hemorrhage that almost made him quit coaching entirely. And what he thinks Ronda would ask him if she was sitting here right now. This is not the story MMA media told. This is the story from the man who was in the corner. ───────────────────── WHAT WE COVER How Edmond started coaching at 16 with a stick in his hand — and why parents loved it The full story of what happened in the 28 days before the Holly Holm fight nobody talks about Why Ronda was in a bathtub for 8 hours before the Amanda Nunes fight What he actually thinks of Joe Rogan's analysis of the losses — and why he says it is completely wrong The moment he knocked on Ronda's door before the Amanda fight and saw Travis Brown there for the first time What he wishes he had said or done differently The brain hemorrhage that almost made him walk away from coaching forever Whether Arman Tsarukyan is the most coachable fighter he has ever worked with What Armenian parents get wrong about putting their kids in combat sports What Ronda Rousey would ask him if she was sitting in this chair right now — and what he would say back ───────────────────── TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Cold open 01:00 Building Glendale Fighting Club from a printing shop — two years of legal battles 08:00 Starting coaching at 16 — the stick, the strict parents and the mistakes 13:00 How Ronda came into his gym — and why he threw her out first 20:00 The early years before she became famous — six amateur fights, all first round 27:00 The Holly Holm fight — 28 days notice and what really happened 38:00 The Amanda Nunes fight — the bathtub, the morning weigh-in, Travis Brown 48:00 His response to Joe Rogan's analysis — and why he says it is wrong 55:00 The brain hemorrhage — two months away from the gym 62:00 Arman Tsarukyan — what makes him different from everyone else 68:00 What Armenian parents get wrong about combat sports 78:00 What Ronda would ask him right now — and his answer ───────────────────── ABOUT EDMOND TARVERDYAN Founder, Glendale Fighting Club, Glendale, California.
