(6:00) He was bullied mercilessly as a kid. But he became interested in getting stronger and was eventually introduced to Joe Bonadonna, his first mentor. Anna just attended the red carpet event for Pixar's Toy Story 5, which opens June 19. 2026. (28:00) Anna is the new voice of Mrs. Potato Head! The after-party food was disappointing, however. (43:00) They chat about some of the activities at the event, including how energy moves around the room. How do you avoid white-knuckling, even if you have been NSNG? (57:00) White-knuckling could happen if you are too low in calories, fat, and protein. You still need to make sure you fuel your body with enough food.
