Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each
question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on
four things from 1 to 5:
directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow),
precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted
mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange
scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean.

Q Um, what would you tell a young Devin today listening to this? He was like, man, I don't want to live a boring life. I want to adventure. I want to do incredible things, but I don't really have much. Maybe I'm doing drywall right now too. What would you tell them?
A I would say, um, break up with the girl or guy that you're with. And go travel around the world, and get into hospitality, and work at different restaurants around the world, learn different languages, and just be a good, kind human. Be kind, work hard, and just learn. And let, be a sponge. Don't be a know-it-all. Just take it, take it, take it. And in that time, figure out where do you want to be in five or 10 years? And then work backwards. You know, is it a ranch in the middle of Colorado with cows and a wife and kids and, you know, you know, your, you know, your pickup truck and whatever it is, if that's what it is and that cost X amount of dollars, work backwards. How can you get there? Right.

Q Yeah. But now you have all day running company, which is also, is that what owns like running man and the biggest sauna and all those things you have? What does that all encompass?
A Yeah. Uh, all day running, We started with like, 20 different concepts. We started with a calendar. We started with, you know, daily workouts. We started with gear. We started with, um, a monthly call. We started with run clubs, and we do that on purpose. Throw, throw it at the wall. See what sticks. You know, ah, that didn't kind of work. That worked. That worked. That didn't work. This didn't work. Cool. Yes. No. Running Man. Running Man was a festival. It came down to schedule. Jessie and I have limited time, so this allows us to do it once a year. Um, It's a blank canvas for us. You know, we can do whatever we want there. It's fun. It's what we like to do. And so, yeah, you know, we launched Running Man three years ago. We're going on, this is our third one this year.

Q lot of stuff. I think a lot of people don't know if they like it or not. Like, what's your process for like, ah, I'm not going to do this again. Or I did, I liked that. That was great. Do you sit and think about it? Is it just a feeling? Do you go with your gut reaction? How does a young person actually decide what is their school?
A I don't know if you get those butterflies inside when you're doing something and you're like, that was fun. You know, like think of a time back when you were a kid or a teenager or in college or any time in your life and you've got those butterflies inside. Was it helping someone? Well, then maybe you should try some philanthropy things. Was it building, building something? Maybe you should look into architecture, building houses, you know, building a company, you know, was it, Reading. Maybe you're meant to be a freaking lawyer. Maybe you love reading. Maybe you're meant, I don't, you know what I mean? Like everyone's different, but you gotta try. I've tried so many things, and so I know exactly how I learn, and I just deep dive into that every day.

Q Do most people that you know have a five or a value system?
A Uh, yeah. I mean, my friends, my group. Yeah. Um, but no, not a lot of people do. If, if I'm to ask everyone listening to this podcast, do you have five things you absolutely, no matter what, Live by. And if something comes on your schedule right now and it goes against your value, are you doing it? I would say 90% of people are saying, shit, yeah, he's right. Like, I, I do do things I don't want to do. My schedule, I'm not doing it. Cody, if there's something on my schedule that doesn't lie with one of those fives, a person, a place, a thing, a business opportunity, an investment, I'm just not doing it. I don't give a fuck. I'm not doing it. I'm just not Doing it. It's, that's how stubborn I am. And like, I'll just tell people no. Not enough people say no. The power of no. What Nina said the other day? She said, your yes means a lot more if you say no. You know, she's more powerful.
