Dragon Slayer Media
United States
Приєднався 20 лют 2020
DRAGON SLAYER MEDIA was formed by Rich Gaspari and John Romano to house and make available all of the media assets they create together, including their new podcast (Fitness Fame & Fortune), eBooks, ePrograms, Clothing, personal appearances, as well as advertising opportunities for vendors both inside and outside our industry.
Rich is known in the industry as the Dragon layer. Jeff Everson ( former publisher of Planet Muscle magazine) gave him that name because of the way Rich fought off every obstacle in front of him, regardless of how big, how powerful, how damaging. These obstacles were so great they were like dragons - in his competitive career, his personal life and in business. Rich fought them all and slayed every one of them - except for Lee Haney, but he sure gave him a run for his money, and set a new conditioning standard in the process.
In every thing you do, every thing you attempt, you will come up against obstacles; these are the dragons..... Slay the dragon.

The DEA is making noise about an in person doctor's visit required for a 30 day supply of your replacement dose of testosterone? Telemedicine seems to have become a loophole upon which certain underqualified recipients built their workaround. And, of course, that can't be tolerated. Or is it just going back to the way it was before we had telemedicine? Or, is there something deeper afoot? What ...

Why do so many top pros show up show day soft and lacking detail and sharpness. Why do they look worse than their IG posts from two weeks out? Romano Blames the gurus and says it's blanket, monstrously long diuretic administration, Gaspari says they don't work hard enough, and a lot of you have your own opinions. We're sure the truth lies somewhere in the middle. So, to try and swing opinion in...

What his tiktok or YT channel?
Bodybuilding is not a sport. Arnold called it a sport in Pumping Iron but he was manipulative. He helped make it more acceptable by that misnomer.

Heyyyy another Tom’s River native here boys loving the stuff!!!! Lolz
Aaron Baker The Best for ever . ❤
4:12, no…let’s not
I’m so glad to know it was a genetic predisposition and not steroids. He needed tests and he just had really bad genetics
Toxic guy that was violent towards his wife. No respect for smiley guys like that
You guys are spot on. The growth of classic physique is what brought me back to bodybuilding. The look, posing, overall vibe and achievable condition without having to die for it. The open guys are too bulgy all over even when conditioned. Just freaky but not what a perfect physique strives to be. I’m a golden era guy at heart.
Yo whats up guys we need more podcast
Smart Chris doesn’t wanna lose jay from business
He won 09 10 06 07 last Olympia was 13

*YEA HURRICANE SANDY. BUT. THE BOARDWALK FIRE KILLED GREAT BARS. KILLED ULTIMATE DIVE BAR. "JACK AND BILLS" WAS LIKE A VILLAGE BAR ANYTHING WENT. ESPECIALLY THURSDAY DOLLAR BEERS ATTRACTED ALL THE YOUNG GIRLS. AND POLICE IDIOTS WOULD STAND DIRECTLY IN FRONT. LOOKING IN THE BAR, NO DOORS. WHO THEY CAN HARASS WHEN THEY WALK OUT*
1 year Rodger has 10k views. Pauly same title, same 1 year later, 4.3 MILLION VIEWS*
Roger- I love Jersey but I hate the politics and corruption (also Roger)- supports Tr💩🍊p 🙊🙈
*ROGER AND BOW WOW. HAD A SPIN OFF. WHERE THEY ARE SHOWN RAISING THEIR KIDS. BOW WOW HAS THEM ON HER UA-cam CHANNEL. AND HE WAS ON OTHER SPIN OFF WHEN SNOOKI AND BOW WOW LIVED TOGETHER IN A RENOVATED FIRE HOUSE*
Her knick ne is JWOWW. Not Bow-wow!!!

Yes. Back in the 90s mtv filmed a lot of shows in Seaside
*ROGERS. SON. LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE HIM. EXCEPT THE BABY IS SO CUTE. AND GIRL SO WILD. ITS LIKE THE TEO OF THEM, MINI VERSIONS*

That guy Rich used to work with that kid Arvin who was Situations friend from home and did that Shredz scandal.
Roger was abusive to Jenny and it was obvious
MORE LIKE THE OTHER WAY AROUND
You saw the CCTV of him pushing Jenny right ? @@bonesdaily1354
@@bonesdaily1354how??? there’s literally video proof of roger pushing jenny down to the floor. that man was abusive and a manipulator
Are u restarded
Funny, on the show when tiger was introduced, Jwow made it sound like her and him were ex flings from way back in the day. Now he’s saying they met on season one while she was filming…and had a bf. But she came across like a faithful gf on the show. 🤔
She had to be sneaky she had a boyfriend!!
The boyfriend name was Tom. He came to visit her on the show.
Wanted to listen to Rich not John! Stfu let Rich talk! John not a championship bodybuilder geesh!...
Thank you so much for this informative, educational interview. It is important to understand what it takes to be a top tier competitive bodybuilder. You can still build a "respectable" body without gear, just not "Olympia quality".
I met Dennis Tinnerino 1st in the early 80s at an Expo in SoCal. I told about a couple of authentic Italian bakeries. I'd run into him from time to time, he always remembered my name. I was just another younger Italian gymrat to him I guess, but he'd warn me to about not getting caught up in the craziness etc. He was never preachy, just always very decent to me. Same with Bill Pearl meeting him at Expos off/on, he talked us young hungry gymrats like friends.
I believe the bodybuilder you're trying to think of is Jim Morris, and the last open to the public gym Mr.Pearl owned was The Pasadena Health Club.
Great podcast Rich!!
Rich, I met you @ Night of Champions, Beacon Theatre in 1993 with Al Beckley. You were doing business in the lobby. Great to meet you😊. Your Mr Universe win and Mr. Olympia competitions are impressive. Love your Joe Weider and Lee Haney reminiscing! Take care, Also, John, Dave Palumbo said your bodybuilding writing is impressive, and take care, also, congrats
Any news episodes in the pipeline? I miss this podcast.
Any podcasts coming?
No I won't leave Jersey shore Guido alone
easy with the slang! Mio nome Guido
Calling somebody grito business that's why
Fascinating show, you guys went from Rambo to AI seamlessly. I have written an academy paper on "Technological Singularity, it would be pleasure to come on your show and talk about it. (Happy to provide evidence). I am also an avid Bodybuilder for many, many years (I am old), I loved Mike Mentzer's theories on training. It does lift my heart when Jon R. talks about Mike. Great work keep it up!
Love the show but miss the early episodes when you’d have entrepreneurs within the industry on to tell their story and talk business.
I love this show guys and can listen to you both all day, but you need to get another guest on the show. I would love to see some more bodybuilders from the 80s and 90s
I always liked Dave Batista he was a monster during the attitude era.
Great podcast 👍
Love hearing your traveling stories
Look at the pro wrestlers of today. Gone are the Scott Steiner’s or Batista’s, the guys look like CrossFit athletes. None of these guys are jacked anymore
Many don’t look like athletes at all. Kevin Owens and Sammy Zayne look like slobs.
Johns right..Hard work is key .That means concentrating to put your mind in the muscle till failure.
Who’s going to be the next guest on the show ?
Rich is known for very hard training
Great show 💪 I agree Bumstead is not a showman like Arnold he is a very cool, authentic and a bit boring. Bumstead is almost like the everyday man with a fantastic physique which makes him and his journey so fantastic to watch.
I disagree Bumstead needs to make a run at the Mr Olympia. I don’t think he needs to put on a lot of weight. Chis isn’t going to look the way he looks forever anyway. I think he’s big enough to do it. He will be bringing his aesthetics. That’s his strength. Even with the extra weight he will be the most aesthetic guy up there. It could propel him into the main stream and could make him the closest thing to Arnold out there. Bring this topic to Iron Rage, John.
Great show guys ! I'm 62 and have trained since I was 13. I never got close to your levels, but I still pick myself apart all the time! Biceps thickness has always been a problem for me. Maybe there's hope after listening to this show!😂💪😂👍
