Kevin Durant Couldn't Bench 135?! Mike Catherwood & Schaub React | TFATK Ep. 1183

Brendan Schaub and Mike dive deep into one of the most controversial debates in sports and life: talent vs hard work. Is hard work really enough to succeed, or are some people just built different? The conversation breaks down real examples from elite athletes, including stories about NBA stars, UFC fighters, and the mindset it takes to compete at the highest level. Schaub explains why “hard work beats talent” isn’t always true—and why the combination of talent and work ethic is what truly separates champions. They also get into broader cultural topics, including youth sports burnout, the pressure of modern competition, and how systems like education and parenting impact success. Plus, a raw discussion on Texas vs California culture, crime, and lifestyle differences adds another viral layer to the episode. If you're into UFC, MMA, athlete mentality, or real talk about success, this episode hits hard. Topics include: UFC mindset and elite fighters Talent vs hard work debate Youth sports and burnout Texas vs California culture differences Success, discipline, and reality checks Get this episode and all future episodes AD FREE + 2 extended episodes, Fan Questions, exclusive behind the scenes content and more each month at https://www.patreon.com/tfatk O'Reilly - https://oreillyauto.com/FIGHTER See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Stop editing words

Love the show, but sick of them editing out certain words. They need to let it go.

I love the show but sometimes I can’t even finish listening because Brian is oblivious to life and always has some dumb take that’s over the top and typically a lie
Freedom of speech??

hahcurjbthchwbw

You literally say not to censor anyone but say jimmy should lose his job like Gina. Once you start censoring it doesn’t stop you guys flip flop and are unaware of too much. No matter what, one of you are always on the wrong side of something, changing like the weather getting disappointing
Pod is still funny
