Quick note! Brett, an amazing human being that does now want to perpetuate the fake news out there, has pointed out a stat that was incorrectly mentioned in this episode. The actual stat was meant to explain that there has been an increase in suicides since COVID began, not that there have been more deaths by suicide versus COVID. Because we were in the flow of conversation this was miscommunicated but is still very important to cite. An intro will be added to this in the future to note the incorrect stat as well. 

This episode is with Brett Somerville owner, operator, and coach at Granite Barbell, located in New York's Hudson Valley.
