Nick Best is a precious human and must be protected.

[@rjharrold2907]

@Mer Luzo To be fair while he is much more mature, he still does a lot of similar stuff to them and they're friends

[@rjharrold2907]

@Mer Luzo Although yes I will agree and say they go too far a lot of the time

IA. He's my fave of the four!

He really is just the ...... BEST.... wouldn't you say? I'll see myself out....

[@MisticStyles]

What means "must be protected"? Who should protect Nick? Serious request or bullshit comment for internet points?

[@Mirriam02]

Nick sacrificed a major advancement in his career to do this show, props to him! I'm glad Eddie selected Nick for the 'Hall honorary award'.

[@ShayanGivehchian]

I mean he is good but I doubt his career will advance in his age.

I couldn’t believe he actually was still working a normal job! I figured he wouldn’t need to bc he capitalized in other ways through strongman events.

Seeing nick tear up about that kid and him saying thats why he didnt back down is what makes me love these guys they are all so competitive and yet so caring they'd almost break their backs over a kid whos not theres just named after them what admirable gents

[@mattyboyp9427]

So true!

[@djhenyo]

They're filming season 2 right now. As long as they stick to the original formula, and travel to some different countries, it's going to be awesome. The only thing that should change is removing those segments featuring internet clips of cross-fitters and gym bros passing out or wrecking their equipment. Three reasons: (A) it has fuck-all to do with competitive or historical strongmen (B) there are countless clips available for use of actual strongman athletes making hilarious/horrific mistakes both in and out of competitions and (C) most of those dumb internet clips have already been seen by the people who will watch The Strongest Man in History.

[@MIDWESTHOUNDTV]

Yah agree 🤣

[@MrSeanc006]

Good day fellow Connolly

[@freddiecraven]

@@djhenyo any proof of them filming season 2, cause from what i have seen no information about that, don't claim things are happening without sources to back it up

[@sethymoore34]

Screw the history channel. If you guys privately filmed and had the episodes or a season you could purchase on your own website, I would pay top $ for that content. Plus all the proceeds would go straight to you guys not the big dogs who throw y’all the scraps. Keep up the good work fellas! You guys are all inspiring and funny as hell

[@Fergus-H-MacLeod]

They could easily replicate the show premise under a different name for sure.

[@ShayanGivehchian]

@@Fergus-H-MacLeod it won't make nearly as much. While independent platforms have grown those companies still have the upper hand. Even the KZbin clips on the history channel pull alot of views

[@bri.g.5105]

Or even just on a streaming service

[@SPACYtunes]

@MdoubleHB Are you ok? Are you having a mental episode or medical emergency of some kind?

[@Kingdlee_]

@@ShayanGivehchian it would tho. Yes the volume would be much lower but their percentage of the pie is much higher so it balances itself out. For example let’s say they got $10,000 an episode for 7 episodes and they probably get no residuals so they’d walk with $70k. Now they shoot the same 7 episodes and instead release independently on multiple platforms(they can license it to tv and stuff like that while retaining ownership) and let it live for the duration of their life cause they get residuals from ownership and they charge the typical $19.99 per season they would only need approx 14,000 views to generate the same amount of revenue for each of them and then they keep making more on it over time passively which ultimately would surpass their network earnings. The major difference would be if they want their money all upfront or if they are cool with letting it accumulate. considering content is becoming the main focus of all businesses they could also make a ton off sponsorships during the actual filming to cover recording and travel costs etc. so I’m not saying it’s 100% promised but it is very possible. I was bored and typed this long ass response so my b 😂

@MdoubleHB must be a liver king shill.

[@Vulcan-jp1qi]

@MdoubleHB Its only invalid if a majority athletes in the sport don't use PEDs If you are competing in a sport where PEDs are normalized like the IFBB in bodybuilding or strongman then it is not an edge on your opponents, secondly what do you mean real athletes don't use drugs, you know PEDs and steroids are not wonder drugs right you still have to put an immense amount of blood sweat and tears into succeeding drugs don't replace work, Im not condoning the use of them but don't invalidate the work it takes even for "roided" athletes

[@Tevatron044]

Did the same. This podcast convinced me to get some of brian's merch

[@sjvieaux8312]

I found out about the four of you about a year ago and you have inspired me greatly. I've always enjoyed the content but it took almost a year for me to use that inspiration and start working out again. I'm 5'10 and have always been between 160-180lbs but during lockdown, depression took me up to 230 and my habits were as bad as they could get. I'm only about 2 months in right now but I'm down to 203 and still improving. I went and bought myself weights, lots of protein powder, vitamins, creatine, started counting calories and working out 5 days per week. This is the longest I've stuck with a routine so far and you guys helped me find that will power, so thank you!

[@Sweet9964]

Seeing Nick show that emotion was really cool. Makes me glad to have the same name as such an awesome dude.

[@carolosjk]

The dynamic of these 4 together is amazing. All 4 of you are super interesting and super funnny at the same time! Keep it up, the podcast will keep growing!

[@jeffarmfield2346]

Nick best starting the show off cold as ice calling oberst out like that 😂 and I can't believe they talked about Eddie getting in trouble by not eating...that sounded exactly like a bad reaction to an insulin shot.

[@Luluchan00]

Out of the 4, Brian is one of the greatest of all time, Eddie won and has ridiculous records, and Nick competes as an old man far beyond his prime. Robert is the one that sort of sticks out more as the one with the fewest achievements especially compared to the two other younger guys. Still insanely strong, but lacks those no one in the world can talk shit about me accolades.

[@W3althy_Burrito]

@@Luluchan00 I believe oberst has or had the record for shoulder press in america at least and i think he was training to break the world record for that but im not 100 percent sure

[@jeffarmfield2346]

Yea, I definitely agree. Oberst is kinda seen as a joke in the hard-core strongman world bc he doesn't have any wins or really even any decent placements in top strongman shows but still would run his mouth. That's why it was so funny esp to see nick do it.

[@brencelt]

sadly it's much deeper. Nick married the widow of a much younger m better looking, more accomplished strongman, who refused to take the Best name upon marriage, keeping her dead husband's name through the marriage. This seriously effected Best big time, which is why hes been such a pitiful figure in strongman. SAD!

[@SouthsideSox007]

The reason he wasn’t a great strongman is because he was mainly a power lifter and got into strongman late in age. And it’s actually not uncommon for widows to keep their dead husbands name even after they remarry. For some it’s a religious thing. Once your in wedlock, you forever keep the name. Her last name is Murande-Best

I just want you to know The Strongest Men In History got me back into watching strongman. I used to watch WSM when it was on ESPN in the 90s and Magnus ver Magnusson dominated, then I never saw anything about it again until the show and I was hooked. I am subscribed to all your channels, and I would love to see a second season, I will watch them all, DVR them, and watch reruns.

[@187blackblade]

Exact same here too. Used to watch the late night reruns and marathons in the 90's of MVM as a teenager when nothing else was on and just forgot about it as I got older and real life begins. Until I saw a clip of it on YT one day (cable cutter) and just was hooked ever since.

[@CollinThomasEverett]

I watched Strongest Man in History twice during the pandemic. Something about it felt so inviting and exciting. I really love the four of you together, and sincerely hope we get to see another season of that show.

[@CollinThomasEverett]

That's super frustrating about the production crew being ignorant to what strongmen go through. That crew should have had more people who knew the sport, and could back up the strongmen during those miscommunications.

Totally agree with the point at the end, you need that comedy and you need those friendships in there too, it’s why Top Gear was so great; 3 mates pissing around in some cars, same with this, there is a magic to strong relationship between mates, especially with the same interests, same struggles etc. what makes a show great.

But if childish humor is your only tool then you can't be surprised they don't find it marketable for big audiences.

I never thought of that but you’re totally right

[@stevenobrien7686]

Being honest I feel really kinda bad for Nick, they really do just kinda walk all over him and treat him like a punching bag. Maybe I’m not understanding the relationship, but it def does seem like Nick gets disregarded A LOT, and there’s some tension between him and Eddie. I mean he was literally about to break down and start crying when he talked about that kid that his friend named after him, who was standing right there when Eddie and Rob were making fun of him and clowning on him calling him a wuss. And they just laughed at him, called him stupid for putting so much weight on and just brushed past it. There’s several other places where Nick kinda hinted that stuff they said or did really hurt and upset him, and not once does anyone stop and consider that maybe it’s not all in good fun on Nick’s end. Nick tries to play it off as best he can, but I think he’s so willing to do all this because these guys have a lot more subscribers and followers for their online presence. He quit his job to pursue these opportunities, and he’s an older guy now. Idk, I just don’t think these guys seem always treat him very well. Seems pretty callous and cruel for someone that’s supposed to be a friend. Even on the video they did for Eddie’s channel, Eddie forgot to mention Nick’s KZbin channel and he got upset about it. Just doesn’t seem like a happy relationship on Nick’s end tbh, but who knows maybe I’m interpreting things the wrong way.

Does seem like some tension

[@AlejandroSanchez-pl6jw]

I agree. If it weren’t for Brian I’m positive Nick would have nothing to do with them. Bold assumption? May be but call it how I see it

[@trident1314]

I always feel Nick is kinda on the outside a bit in this group, I dunno if it's the age gap. Personally I couldn't be around Eddie or Oberst for any great period of time TBH.

[@JakeLesser]

@@trident1314 I used to think that as he is a bit older and quiter he was happy to just sit back and let the "kids" play, but seeing them all together again it seems that there is some animosity especially from Eddie and they are actively keeping him out of the group apart from Brian who is way too nice. Everytime he speaks there is either a dead pause or they straight up insult him and move on.

[@km-co2ws]

They are straight up bullying him. You can see Eddie does not like him, and constantly tries to undermine him.

I honestly loved the show and all the shenanigans. I didn't know a thing about strongman until I started watching you guys. Now I watch it every year!

[@AlexRavier]

Nick is really awesome !

Brian shaw your Shaw strength logo was on my phone as a desktop for the longest time to remind me I can make it if I try. Thank you for being a personal hero Brian

Feel like nick doesn’t get the respect he’s due. He’s hanging and doing the challenges with much younger men. He got upset about the story with his mates kid named after him and two of them are laughing at him, friends don’t really do that. Seen a side to Eddie that’s a bit off the way he talks to nick

[@A-A-RonDavis2470]

You weren't reading the room well. He was just expressing an emotional context and they understood. There's no need to dwell on it and get all awkward. That's the kinda stuff OB and Eddie went through with the murderer lol.

[@larsolofson3485]

No cap it seems like Eddie gets off on fucking with nick

[@herb2078]

@@A-A-RonDavis2470 trust me mate in England we tear each other a new arsehole like the way we banter each other is dark and harsh, Other nations don’t read it well or they think it’s always good hearted and that there’s never any undertones. The way Eddie dismisses and talks to nick takes the piss, he’s just being rude any other Brit would have checked him for it because they would know he’s being a bit of a bully boy.

Brian, Love your podcast and loved the history series! I'm from Greenville, SC, and on our anniversary a couple years ago I talked my wife into making a stop in Toccoa, GA on our way to Helen, GA. I knew about the Paul Anderson memorial from the episode you filmed there, and the day we visited was literally the day before what would have been Paul's 100th birthday...! The memorial is truly special and we love his faith in Christ Jesus on full display. Bless you all and keep being strong!

[@frasert8779]

Eddie says “I’ve never watched any episodes, I lived it” Literally 1 minute later “I can’t believe how much didn’t make it into the episodes! I was expecting to see way more!” I love Eddie 😂
