Froch meets: Dorian Yates | Steroids, Jail and being 6x Mr Olympia

The Shadow!!! Total inspiration to me as a teenager getting into bodybuilding. Those black and white shots in FLEX magazine back in the day blew minds. Other competitors were terrified of Dorian. Complete single minded focus. Blood, guts and the rest.

hes always like that. Hes gets good guests to get the views but he comes across a bit insecure. Checking his mic, showing his watch, talking over people, constantly comparing to his guests, watching the camera. Seems very distracted. 24:00 watch for a minute and hes not listening to anything.

Your best interview yet Carl! Absolutely fascinating, could have listened for two hours!

Two legends together, love it!

Interviews are always so much better when the person being interviewed has mutual respect for the interviewer... Which is the case here. Obvious respect for each other's achievements, knowing where you both came from and what it took to become elite on the world stage. Awesome to see you expanding to guys like Tom Aspinall and now the legend, Dorian Yates. Respect!

On the other hand excessive consumption of cannabis over many many years 'smoking joints' raises your chances of schizophrenia, fact. I smoked cannabis regular for 3 years and it seriously affected my short term memory for years, it also gave me a dull groggy pain in my brain for days after a heavy smoking session! I quit after 3 years but my friend kept smoking it for another 15 years, he turned schizophrenic and had to go on heavy medication, he stopped taking medication for a while and he then bludgeoned his mother to death with a metal bar while he was living with her! I would never recommend cannabis as a recreational pastime to anyone!!! 😞

Apparently it permanently lowers your IQ about 10 points after sustained use too.

I started smoking cannabis when l was 17 .

[@doombardevon6099]

I got to say Carl, i nearly fell off my chair, when i realised you had Dorian on. Why is Dorian still relevant today?.. Cause he always has been authentic! When he took a while to answer the question " what's a way to his heart" he said" be real". That's him in a nutshell! Years ago he did a guest spot here in Exmouth, Devon, in the early 90's. Whilst the show was on i went for a piss in the reception area and there was Dorian stairing me down as i went towards him, he was intimidating! I just went to toilet, than went back upstairs! Only now do i realise why he was not so friendly looking and accommodating with the early life experience that he had . He is highly respected in the bodybuilding/fitness industry. Brilliant chat Carl, keep it up mate. It's really is a positive podcast that you have, great work P.S.Will you put out the footage of the ' leg day with Dorian ' ?..mate , its going to get views around the 🌎 mate!! Respect from Devon.
