YOOO- The Morales cousins are back! We’ve got a big one this week. We’re joined by one of the real heavy hitters in the powerlifting community- Ethan Donato.

Tune in as we take a deliberate dive into what first drew him to the gym, the difference between working out and powerlifting, and how he played a key part in starting “Illini Barbell” at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. We also tap into his music journey, his new album 86 (out now: P1NOY on Spotify), where he finds inspiration to create, and we even get into the art of a great diss track after personal injustice.

Also on this episode: advice we’d give our 5-year-old selves, Sebas & Anthony try smelling salts for the first time live on air, and everyone’s favorite segment, AITA, makes its return… gym edition.

Episode 35 of DD like Kevin Durant in the clutch- M O N E Y.

Listen, watch, indulge because you already know this is the best podcast yet.
