Christian doesn't know this bc haven't run into each other in a while but when I was 19 I used to go to every event Christian had. I would talk about what I wanted to do, how I was ready to drop out of college to pursue something of my own. And Christian said one thing to me that changed my entire life... he said "You have nothing to lose. You are young, you have no kids, you're not married, you don't have too many responsibilities.... NOW is the time to go for it. NOW is the time to just go all in" And I did. I dropped out of college, I went all in on my business. And at 21 I was makin $50k/mo as a fitness coach online. Now Im 25 and I am running a 7 figure business. I can't thank Christian enough for the impact he's made in my life.

Maxx having to continually, subtly remind Christian to talk into the mic and Christian constantly fiddling with the things on the desk are the most underrated parts of this episode.
This is the perfect name. The perfect host and the perfect first guest. These two guys are such good guys and so inspirational. I loved this convo. Don’t Be Sour Y’all 😊
Good podcast, I know it will get better. One critique is not letting a guest finish a thought. Ask the question and consider once the question is answered giving a slight 2 count pause to see if anymore info comes out. Makes for a great conversation. One last thing, try to not compare times in your life to a story that's being told.
Love the podcast bro! One thing I think could be beneficial is making sure to totally let your guest finish their thoughts before cutting in - it was clear you were super excited to talk with Christian which is awesome, just felt like he was getting cut off at times. Really looking forward to the next episode!
I can proudly say that I have been watching Christian since 2012 religiously and I still remember when he clicked mouse button to order equipment for his first gym. And literally saw both of you max and Chris grow together... many friends came on and kinda left but you two stayed consistent and that's what made you both king 👑 I'm from Pakistan 🇵🇰 and literally getting severally influenced by what you two did in the last decade, brings shivers down my spine. I was in my early 20s then and now I'm 31, almost the same age as Christian and its beautiful to see you both entering your 30s. Prayers for you both and what's to come next.
Yesss I remember that. At his room in his parents house. CG Fitness out of the garage. He cried when he ordered his first set of equipment. OG sub checking in! And I feel your sentiment. It’s been really cool to grow with him and max.
“We’re not partners, we have nothing to do with each other’s businesses… YET” Oooooh let’s go boys! Hell of a first show Maxx. Pumped for the next one ✊🏼🐺
Maxx, I think your brand has gotten to a point where your name isn’t really tied to it anymore. I found Sour Strips on social media before I found you, or knew of you! I think you’ve done a good job of separating the two-which is HUGE because not a lot of people can say that 😄
Maxx, you are ONE OF A KIND and have continuously been a positive impact in my life. On a daily I watch your videos and they change my mood and mindset for the rest of the day. Thank you for creating this podcast I absolutely LOVE this conversation with you and Christian. Being 100% real and raw, vulnerable and just being you. Thank you.🖤
I’ve been watching max and Christian forever. What a great pod. So genuine. So heart felt. Sobbed a little at the end. I admire the relationships you guys have built with all your close friends. 10/10!
Sitting and watching this…I’m just completely motivated as a subscriber. I’ve been watching the both of you since 2015 and the fitness industry has been something I’ve tried to tackle for years. Damn I ain’t giving up listening to y’all’s stories! Inspiring!
Joe Rogan was just talking about how he likes fitness influencers on his podcast last week, if you were able to be a guest in his podcast, that would be a great way to get your podcast more reach to a massive audience. Also, he is in Texas now. That would be crazy, I would push hard to try to make that happen Maxx.
I started watching Christian since 2013 and Maxx on 2014 during my highschool days. Their growth is truly inspiring and will definitely be looking forward to future podcasts.
Man, talking about the older days of fitness youtube...I miss that so much!! The fitness videos from like 2014-2016 was peak. That's what really got me more into going to the gym! And the part about getting into this for money, it just sucks because literally nobody can afford to start something like this without the money. Nobody can afford to do something for fun and to not make money.
Please interview Nick Wright. Nick is how I got into watching fitness UA-cam, he’s how I first heard of Maxx and Christian. Now that he’s left UA-cam, I find myself wondering how he’s doing and what he’s up to.
Somebody might have said this in the comments but maybe consider a boom mic. That way you or your guests can lay back in the chair and pull the mic to them. Just a thought. Great show though! Keep up the solid work.
Such a good episode! Would love to see Christian back! Loved how there weren’t 10 sponsored ads throughout the podcast. Kept me engaged and focused on the conversation you guys were having
Congrats, not a bad first episode! CG is very humble, which contributes to his success because he's a relatable persona. I'm glad he always mentions the same names when discussing his origins... its like he will never forget where he started, very inspiring!
The mutual respect between these two is just freaking superb. Love the podcast, love the format, and Maxx: don’t worry about your style, this thing was the shit. #everforward
Loved the podcast Maxx! Feedback: If you could somehow tone down the base in your voices that would be awesome. Headphones there's really no issue but listening to you in the car it gets a bit drone.
Super proud of you dude. Been here since the Virginia days. Watching your evolution & growth these past few years has been nothing short of inspiring. This podcast will do big things, believe in it! Ever forward!!
Worth the wait! Don't give this up Maxx, it's got all the potential to grow and be so dang successful! Very entertaining, love the way the conversation flows vs just question answer format that some podcasts do, video quality is spot on keeping the person talking in frame, audio was also great for the first podcast!
Started watching both these guys in 2015. Now at a completely different stage of my life but never stopped following these guys and watching them chase and accomplish their dreams. Inspiring me for 7 years now
Maxx and Bert Kreischer would be hilarious. They’d be interrupting each other the entire time 😂 All jokes man, great episode can’t wait to listen every week!
I always love intros that take a clip from the middle of the podcast. (Definitely made me want to listen specifically for that clip) I like how you had a list of questions. But if someone went on a tangent you both let it ride. But if you really wanted an answer to the question, you made sure you went backtracked. I like hearing some of the inside story’s of UP, creation of alphaland, But also each other’s perspective from the supplier situation. I really appreciate how you didn’t ask Christian about how he started Alphalete.(The information on that has been asked/told on other podcasts and videos) but rather some of the specific story’s involving the creation. Quality is fantastic. Video/ audio are 10/10. Maxx you come off like this is your 100th episode. Length of the video was perfect, didn’t feel rushed or dragged on. But did leave me wanting to hear more. This podcast feels different from others in the way that listening in, the viewer will get to see slightly different side of the interviewee.
max just set the bar so high for other podcasts, no other podcast I know of that is so easily consumable and shot/done so professionally. the quality of this is insane
You need to watch christian for years to understand his language, not only does he mumble but the fact that Me and max both completely understand and vibe off him means Ive been here from the beginning
Brilliant introduction to the podcast world! The format is great - flow between Maxx and Christian is obviously fantastic. You've both been so influential to me over the years, the content is really interesting, but it still feels like sitting down shooting the shit with friends.
I was around for the early days and this is sooo nostalgic to watch. I was sub’d when Christian ordered his first set of equipment and CG Fitness was booming out of the garage. I remember Max getting fired loool. I’m no longer super into fitness like I used to be but still hit the gym 3-4x/wk and check in on you guys periodically. This convo hits and I’m so glad you put this together. Much love dudes!
This is probably the best first episode for a podcast. It feels like you've been doing this for a long time.. very natural conversation. Is there a clips channel coming?
Been following both of you since basically beginning. This conversation and podcast was a pleasure to watch and makes me feel sort of proud that I in a way am part of it too. Thanks for being an inspiration and a source of positivity. I appreciate you both greatly.
I cried watching this because of how wholesome this episode was. I had a couple epiphanies watching this. I am grateful you both keep creating content because I can understand how much you both care about leaving an impact on others and guiding others to be the best. It is touching and inspiring! ❤ I want a lesson from Christian one day on how to visualize better. You guys have a great personalities and friendship! Maxx you did amazing at the set up, Angles and attention to detail! Can’t wait for the next episode to launch!
This was a solid episode. Casual, funny, but also addressing some good topics. Brings back memories of watching videos from back in the early days and where things started. Amazing to see the growth and progress.
I normally don’t listen to podcasts cause I find them boring and I lose interest fast. But the conversation you two had and the flow of it was amazing! Definitely hooked me immediately and I listened to the whole thing! I am excited to see what is in store for this new business venture Max! Best of luck!
Wow what a great first podcast! I am looking forward to future episodes, keep them coming. I am a huge fan of both of you and was soo excited to see this ! You guys are so inspirational. The perfect host and first guest, you guys fuccin nailed it!!!!
I Love the $105 plant in the background! Totally worth the purchase! I would love to see this be a weekly or 2 times a week - IDK idk that’s manageable with your work load! But here’s to many more years of Success Maxx, You deserve it amigo!
Super impressed! This is not just another podcast, if maxx does something he does it right and goes all out! This was such a high quality podcast! Way to go maxx! 👏🏻
Literally watched the whole episode. It was so pure and you guys are truly inspiring. Will come to Texas on July 29 just to see Alphaland in person and hopefully catch you guys for a photo. Thanks for the great content. Cheers from Dublin.
That was a great podcast. Christian's story was repeating itself in other podcasts, i knew most of it cos i followed him o.g, this podcast was a massive contrast of experiences. Christian has inspired me also. Maxx your incredible as well, i value my time and im sure your podcasts will be of great time well spent. This sure was. 😄
That's SO crazy you guys watched Matt Ogus too. He was the actual FIRST UA-cam fitness person I EVER watched. I was on the path of trying to turn around my diet and so watching his grocery haul videos, even if I live in Canada so half the brands/foods you guys can get aren't here, were so informational and inspirational. Love hearing you guys talk. So easy to listen to and just enjoy while working.
Maxx, have you though about doing shorter videos of the best questions/most intriguing questions. So like 3-4 videos of one question and then the full interview as well?
My 14 year influences from body building has came from both of you!! I didn't start dieting and powerlifting. Until I started watching both of you on youtube
I absolutely love yours and Christians brotherhood!!! What a wonderful and humble display of friendship that will hopefully last a lifetime. I remember watching you all on UA-cam so long ago, and I decided it’s time to get caught up. Cheers!!🎉
I loved this and honestly it was so easy to watch to the end! Feel so inspired after listening to you guys talk about your businesses and origin stories ☺️
So excited for this podcast Maxx!!!! It's awesome to see you two here today. I started watching Christian in 2014 (you shortly after) when I started fitness and its crazy to see how far you both have come and are still both the same great people you were when you started!
It’s cool hearing about how much you guys inspire each other.. so much you talked about that resonates with my career on UA-cam. You 2 inspired me in 2016 to start my channel, and while my channel is still not big it is my fulltime job now and has allowed me to open my own gym in Chicago. I remember when I started my channel, there were no questions of “how do i start” it was just.. pulled out my iPhone and started talking to it. There’s great value in learning as you go and I think that is something that paralyzes the people of this generation, they want the answers now, they want to be told exactly what to do, they want their hand held… maybe it’s always been like that and that’s what separates entrepreneurs from employees… anyways, great episode and I look forward to future episodes
LET'S GOOOO!!!!!
LETS GO DOOOOD
BEST PODCAST HANDS DOWN 💯
Can we expect the timestamps in the forthcoming videos?
So wholesome
You guys have a good synergy, well done.
Thank you all for watching the first episode! Please leave any feedback down below on what we could do to improve the experience!
Congratulations on the pod! I think adding chapters/timestamps would be great for future eps.
I would love to see it also on Google Podcasts!
Take it to 2 hours bro! I guarantee so many would have this playing in the background on a Sunday while chilling or cleaning house or whatever
I think timestamps would be great! Maxx good luck man!
Maybe you cud a quick pop up pictures of what you guys are talking about so we have an idea. Had no idea who/what was talking about for certain parts.
Years from now I’ll look back on this super successful podcast thinking “I’m an OG subscriber” 😎
Right !!!
Facts
100%
Yes!
Same!
Christian doesn't know this bc haven't run into each other in a while but when I was 19 I used to go to every event Christian had. I would talk about what I wanted to do, how I was ready to drop out of college to pursue something of my own. And Christian said one thing to me that changed my entire life... he said "You have nothing to lose. You are young, you have no kids, you're not married, you don't have too many responsibilities.... NOW is the time to go for it. NOW is the time to just go all in" And I did. I dropped out of college, I went all in on my business. And at 21 I was makin $50k/mo as a fitness coach online. Now Im 25 and I am running a 7 figure business. I can't thank Christian enough for the impact he's made in my life.
That’s badass!!!
Don't be gay and speak about Nikki blakketter and how she sucked off Christians best friend. Matt ur a dork!
That’s some great advice! What is your business?
Two of the good guys!
Pick him up! Get this guy on the pod
@@larzehoneytoast agreed!

“We have nothing to do with each other’s businesses, YET!” That line got me hyped up bro, love seeing the growth!
Been looking for podcasts to listen too while I work. Good thing you made one dude. Good stuff!
Same!! haha
Haha
I loved this. Also made me sad cuz I lost my best friend in January and you two remind me of me and matt. Always cherish your friendships people
This podcast is so relatable, no fast forwarding. The way Maxx roasted Christian on wining comps 🤣.
I feel motivated from watching this 👌
“We’re not partners, we have nothing to do with each other’s businesses… YET”
Oooooh let’s go boys! Hell of a first show Maxx. Pumped for the next one ✊🏼🐺
LMAO Max giving out the wrong hints. The "red coats are coming" refers to Paul Revere in the American Revolution
Maxx, I think your brand has gotten to a point where your name isn’t really tied to it anymore. I found Sour Strips on social media before I found you, or knew of you! I think you’ve done a good job of separating the two-which is HUGE because not a lot of people can say that 😄

Great video!
For me in the start was you two guys, Greg Plitt, Lazar Angelov & Rob Riches
Been watching both Christian and Maxx since 2016, and some of these stories are still brand new to me and probably most of us. Great pod
Sitting and watching this…I’m just completely motivated as a subscriber. I’ve been watching the both of you since 2015 and the fitness industry has been something I’ve tried to tackle for years. Damn I ain’t giving up listening to y’all’s stories! Inspiring!
Joe Rogan was just talking about how he likes fitness influencers on his podcast last week, if you were able to be a guest in his podcast, that would be a great way to get your podcast more reach to a massive audience. Also, he is in Texas now. That would be crazy, I would push hard to try to make that happen Maxx.
That'd be awesome but doing Rogan takes a whole ass day.. He might not be able to do that lol
I started watching Christian since 2013 and Maxx on 2014 during my highschool days. Their growth is truly inspiring and will definitely be looking forward to future podcasts.
I don't listen to many podcasts but this one certainly has me hooked. Can't wait to see what you evolve to in the near future.
Man, talking about the older days of fitness youtube...I miss that so much!! The fitness videos from like 2014-2016 was peak. That's what really got me more into going to the gym!
And the part about getting into this for money, it just sucks because literally nobody can afford to start something like this without the money. Nobody can afford to do something for fun and to not make money.
Please interview Nick Wright. Nick is how I got into watching fitness UA-cam, he’s how I first heard of Maxx and Christian. Now that he’s left UA-cam, I find myself wondering how he’s doing and what he’s up to.
Yea good one
Somebody might have said this in the comments but maybe consider a boom mic. That way you or your guests can lay back in the chair and pull the mic to them. Just a thought. Great show though! Keep up the solid work.
Christian needs to be back for the "monthaversary" to continue this podcast
Thanks for Chewnning in!!!!!!!
Really enjoyed this. Can tell this will be bigger than anything Maxx has ever done. Looking forward to following the journey!
I’m 8 minutes late n lunch break this episode already good can’t wait to finish it
Such a good episode! Would love to see Christian back! Loved how there weren’t 10 sponsored ads throughout the podcast. Kept me engaged and focused on the conversation you guys were having
Congrats, not a bad first episode! CG is very humble, which contributes to his success because he's a relatable persona. I'm glad he always mentions the same names when discussing his origins... its like he will never forget where he started, very inspiring!
The mutual respect between these two is just freaking superb. Love the podcast, love the format, and Maxx: don’t worry about your style, this thing was the shit. #everforward
there relationship is the perfect example of
you are who you surround yourself with.. 💯
Let's go!!! Definitely Chewning in for these episodes!
Loved the podcast Maxx! Feedback: If you could somehow tone down the base in your voices that would be awesome. Headphones there's really no issue but listening to you in the car it gets a bit drone.
Super proud of you dude. Been here since the Virginia days. Watching your evolution & growth these past few years has been nothing short of inspiring. This podcast will do big things, believe in it! Ever forward!!
Awww Maxx is such a loyal friend. So nice to hear that you didn’t give up on CG when he seemed to shut everyone out during the Alphaland struggle.
Worth the wait! Don't give this up Maxx, it's got all the potential to grow and be so dang successful! Very entertaining, love the way the conversation flows vs just question answer format that some podcasts do, video quality is spot on keeping the person talking in frame, audio was also great for the first podcast!
Started watching both these guys in 2015. Now at a completely different stage of my life but never stopped following these guys and watching them chase and accomplish their dreams. Inspiring me for 7 years now
Maxx and Bert Kreischer would be hilarious. They’d be interrupting each other the entire time 😂
All jokes man, great episode can’t wait to listen every week!
I'd pay to see that
just happy to be here
I always love intros that take a clip from the middle of the podcast. (Definitely made me want to listen specifically for that clip)

max just set the bar so high for other podcasts, no other podcast I know of that is so easily consumable and shot/done so professionally. the quality of this is insane
This brings back crazy memories for me. 2015 when I started watching both of y’all.
"If I don't win my show, because of this one shot..." The look on Christian's face LOL priceless. You two are pioneers!
You need to watch christian for years to understand his language, not only does he mumble but the fact that Me and max both completely understand and vibe off him means Ive been here from the beginning
watch him for too long now i didnt even notice
He mumbles? 😂 been watching since 2015 so guess I’m used to it lol
Lack of sleep does that to you lol I do the same. Your mind is moving too fast for your words to catch up.
Great pod, subscribed 👌🏻 good to hear the background to all the vids over the years 🔥🔥
Brilliant introduction to the podcast world! The format is great - flow between Maxx and Christian is obviously fantastic. You've both been so influential to me over the years, the content is really interesting, but it still feels like sitting down shooting the shit with friends.
Christian is a huge inspiration and such a humble guy. One of the real ones
With how much success you’ve had in the past couple years, this podcast will blow up in no time!
This podcast makes max and Christian so much more likable than they already were
I was around for the early days and this is sooo nostalgic to watch. I was sub’d when Christian ordered his first set of equipment and CG Fitness was booming out of the garage. I remember Max getting fired loool. I’m no longer super into fitness like I used to be but still hit the gym 3-4x/wk and check in on you guys periodically. This convo hits and I’m so glad you put this together. Much love dudes!
Amazing first podcast episode of Don’t be Sour
This is probably the best first episode for a podcast. It feels like you've been doing this for a long time.. very natural conversation. Is there a clips channel coming?

Maxx you did amazing at the set up, Angles and attention to detail! Can’t wait for the next episode to launch!
Same here!!! Happy tears 😊
Very cool to be here from the start. It’s an honor!
Probably the best podcast! Christian is just motivating and inspiring, plus his circle is just amazing! 17 suppliers!! Beast!!!
So true. When Christian left UA-cam, I missed watching his videos. This is the BEST, that he's now back.
This was a solid episode. Casual, funny, but also addressing some good topics. Brings back memories of watching videos from back in the early days and where things started. Amazing to see the growth and progress.
I’m so happy these are 1hr long videos/podcast. I can take this anywhere I go from driving to cardio sessions.
This is the perfect format for Maxx. He’s so entertaining and interesting. Hyped for this!
I normally don’t listen to podcasts cause I find them boring and I lose interest fast. But the conversation you two had and the flow of it was amazing! Definitely hooked me immediately and I listened to the whole thing! I am excited to see what is in store for this new business venture Max! Best of luck!
Thank you !!!
I love podcasts like this where it's just two friends getting into a good talk. Great start to the podcast Maxx!
Crazy, I subscribed to both of you in 2016. 6 years, amazing to see what's possible
What an incredible first video. The editing in the beginning on the intro is so cool. Congratulations max
Wow what a great first podcast! I am looking forward to future episodes, keep them coming. I am a huge fan of both of you and was soo excited to see this ! You guys are so inspirational. The perfect host and first guest, you guys fuccin nailed it!!!!
I Love the $105 plant in the background! Totally worth the purchase! I would love to see this be a weekly or 2 times a week - IDK idk that’s manageable with your work load! But here’s to many more years of Success Maxx, You deserve it amigo!
Super impressed! This is not just another podcast, if maxx does something he does it right and goes all out! This was such a high quality podcast! Way to go maxx! 👏🏻
Literally watched the whole episode. It was so pure and you guys are truly inspiring. Will come to Texas on July 29 just to see Alphaland in person and hopefully catch you guys for a photo. Thanks for the great content. Cheers from Dublin.
LeArn to listen better. But doing better than I could. Enjoyed it.
That was a great podcast. Christian's story was repeating itself in other podcasts, i knew most of it cos i followed him o.g, this podcast was a massive contrast of experiences. Christian has inspired me also. Maxx your incredible as well, i value my time and im sure your podcasts will be of great time well spent. This sure was. 😄
That's SO crazy you guys watched Matt Ogus too. He was the actual FIRST UA-cam fitness person I EVER watched. I was on the path of trying to turn around my diet and so watching his grocery haul videos, even if I live in Canada so half the brands/foods you guys can get aren't here, were so informational and inspirational. Love hearing you guys talk. So easy to listen to and just enjoy while working.
Loved every minute of this start to end. Made me tear up a little bit 😭. Cheers to growth and finding happiness!
Maxx, have you though about doing shorter videos of the best questions/most intriguing questions. So like 3-4 videos of one question and then the full interview as well?
This is going to be one of the biggest podcasts in 1 years time. Awesome content Maxx!
We can only hope
My 14 year influences from body building has came from both of you!! I didn't start dieting and powerlifting. Until I started watching both of you on youtube
The only podcast I will listen to without skipping through it 🔥 Good shit Maxx!
I absolutely love yours and Christians brotherhood!!! What a wonderful and humble display of friendship that will hopefully last a lifetime. I remember watching you all on UA-cam so long ago, and I decided it’s time to get caught up. Cheers!!🎉
I loved this and honestly it was so easy to watch to the end! Feel so inspired after listening to you guys talk about your businesses and origin stories ☺️
So excited for this podcast Maxx!!!! It's awesome to see you two here today. I started watching Christian in 2014 (you shortly after) when I started fitness and its crazy to see how far you both have come and are still both the same great people you were when you started!
Hey
Can you please start giving time stamps ?
Proud to be in the first 150 subs, can’t wait for the new show
It’s cool hearing about how much you guys inspire each other.. so much you talked about that resonates with my career on UA-cam. You 2 inspired me in 2016 to start my channel, and while my channel is still not big it is my fulltime job now and has allowed me to open my own gym in Chicago. I remember when I started my channel, there were no questions of “how do i start” it was just.. pulled out my iPhone and started talking to it. There’s great value in learning as you go and I think that is something that paralyzes the people of this generation, they want the answers now, they want to be told exactly what to do, they want their hand held… maybe it’s always been like that and that’s what separates entrepreneurs from employees… anyways, great episode and I look forward to future episodes
So true,I'm into programming,and the first advice I give to anyone is to just do it,with time you will find and learn everything
Dope first episode! Nothing better than when a bromance is real! Keep ‘em coming Maxx! 💪🏽
very good episode one thing i think good podcasters do… let them talk more in the episode than the host, but it was great!
great quality! it was cool to get the inside scoops on you two. excited to see where this goes
Love the name!!!! 🎉 So excited for another form of Maxxy content!!!!
Been watching these since 2014 Highschool days. Truly inspirational
I was waiting for this podcast since you announced it! 🙌🏼💯🎉 Congrats on all your endeavors Maxx!
Love the format, Maxx! Very good conversation between two friends on the grind.
Definitely going to listen to this while working on my grad school paper!
Came back to finish the end. Man, I'm so motivated to just do everything I've ever been holding back on.
The shots were killing Christian…. Middle in his prep, he doesn’t want to refuse them… that’s why Maxx talked by himself the whole time 😂
The best starting possible with Christian. I love this podcast Max
