Speaker 2 (00:00.532)
Right, but the last female partner you had you were engaged to. then we became workout partners and now we're married. I'm just saying. And workout. Okay.

Speaker 1 (00:11.32)

Bye. Hey, listen, we are semi-pro, but we are sponsors.

All right, so moving into our this or that segment, let me introduce my husband. I'm gonna try to make this without making it sound.

Speaker 1 (02:15.138)
That's me.

Speaker 1 (02:19.554)
How nice of you not to say your current husband.

Well, I'm gonna try to introduce you without making it sound like I married the plot of three Jason Statham movies in a survival podcast.

Boy, I've got these bees.

He's currently a constable, which means he handles everything from serving high-stake warrants to breaking up fights, clearing out meth houses, managing evictions, and patrolling the same streets he's sworn to protect. It's part law enforcement, part crisis response, and part therapist with a badge. Before that, he was an army sniper.

A mercenary, yes, the real kind, not a missionary, and a security expert who runs his own consulting firm now. He co-hosts a pickleball podcast because apparently running towards danger wasn't enough. He needed a mic too. He still makes time for family, fitness, cigars, scotch, and planning road trips like they're a military operation. He's sharp, calm under pressure, and sneaky hilarious. The kind of man who can talk down a tweaker or a teenager without raising his voice.

Speaker 2 (03:17.45)
And yes, he once went viral on TikTok. And if you manage to find it, don't say I didn't warn you. This is Guy Beveridge, and he is exactly as intense, weird, and wonderful as he sounds. I know, right?

that was nice. Dang it. We love that. Can we put that over our bed?

We should sell it at Hobby Lobby. All right, so are you ready?

I'm gonna leave stuff.

Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:39.822)
I'm a comedy sniper now. Yes, I'm ready. I'm in a hot seat.

Are you ready?

Alright, so I will start. Country playlist or 80s rock anthem?

get out of here. Not even close it is 80s rock anthem. Unless I'm building something. Garth Brooks live.

And then it's what?

Speaker 2 (03:58.624)
Okay, brisket or bacon and you can't say both. Silent treatment or sarcastic roast?

Okay brisket on.

Speaker 1 (04:07.342)
gosh, that's person dependent. I'm usually more sarcastic, more of the roasty, roasty mosty.

Yeah.

Speaker 2 (04:18.145)
Roasty mosty? Alright. Partner with your wife or anyone but your wife for pickleball?

She is within arm's reach.

Speaker 2 (04:31.048)
Well, what if I don't? Okay. Paddle princess?

In what? You're losing out and you're gonna lose.

Beer or whiskey?

pfft, not even close. Whiskey, scotch all day.

Grill every meal or never grill again. Camping in the woods or a beach resort.

Speaker 1 (04:45.07)
Grill every meal.

Speaker 1 (04:49.07)
I'm a camping in the woods kinda. G-U-Y.

Would you rather wear crocs for life or skinny jeans for life?

For F sake. For F sake. For freak sake.

You gotta pick one.

No.

Speaker 2 (05:07.792)
I need to hear this. is tough.

All right. For you. Okay. I'm not a youth pastor, so I'll go with Crocs. Ooh. I know. Yikes. know.

I think I'd be more comfortable than skinny jeans though.

for sure. Nuthuggers. Sorry, that's the sponsor.

Yeah. Okay. How about.

Speaker 2 (05:26.264)
How about Lake Day or Range Day?

Dang it. Um, I've done a lot of ranges in my life. I feel like I could put more lakes in. So, Day.

How about Clint Eastwood or The Rock?

Gosh darn it, this is like the Crocs and then the Sons. I grew up on both.

Thank you.

Speaker 2 (05:45.602)
You didn't grow up on the rock. Yes I But he's like your age.

Yeah, exactly. When do you think he was wrestling? He was wrestling in the 90s?

Don't even try. even try. That's like me saying, I grew up with Taylor Swift. She was like six years younger than me.

okay, I'll go Clint Eastwood on that. You don't have to bossa me.

Yeah, I think so.

Speaker 2 (06:08.558)
Friday night lights or Saturday morning cartoons? Or Saturday morning YouTube watching?

Saturday morning cartoons. Yeah, there's no more cartoons. That sucks.

Would you rather fight ten duck-sized horses or one horse-sized duck?

I could just see these little horses. This is making me laugh.

Number one, I could do the Honda and a gorilla, just so you all know. And a gorilla. Number two, I would go with the duck-sized horses.

Speaker 4 (06:40.864)
Okay. Would you rather see a miracle once or feel God's presence daily?

I do both actually, so I mean I feel God's presence daily anyhow and I've seen miracles so kind of a draw on that one.

Okay. How about know when you are going to die or know how you are going to die?

Probably know how. Yeah.

I think if you know how you can like

Speaker 2 (07:08.002)
I didn't have this one written down, she goes, no wind of fold them or no wind to hold them.

Listen, I know when to walk away.

No when to run and that's never.

Speaker 1 (07:22.51)
The he just gave you? Is this how it went for you? No, this Did I break you down like that? Was I a jerk to you like that? What did I do?

I think everybody got to know you guys. yeah, did they?

They got to know my wife, think, is what they got to know on that one. That was a good one. Well, we have some fan mail to shout out. We have shout out to Doug and Chrissy, aka, at underscore pickleball couple on TikTok, who told us, you crack me up. Right back at you. Go follow them. They're hilarious and totally worth the scroll.

Just the tip, quick pickleball wisdom you can use in and out before you know it. As a player, the only lines you actually need to worry about are the baseline and the center lines when you're serving, and of course, the kitchen line. Always respect the kitchen line. Other than that, run wild. You can chase balls outside the sidelines, jump the corner, and play across the whole court. These lines are there for the ball, not to keep you caged in.

So sure, we know Pickleball has influencers and Pickleball has creators, but now we're bringing it all together with Pickleflix. That's where the contact goes full Hollywood for y'all. Today, we've got a treat. We're talking with the man behind the madness, Jordan Bryant, producer, player, and the guy who somehow made

Binge-worthy pickleball series a real thing. From trick shots to docu-series, he's building what we're gonna call the Netflix or the pickle flicks of pickleball and doing it with zero chill and a camera roll of chaos. So grab your paddles, because we're about to serve up some behind the scenes tea. Little strategy and a lot of nonsense. Jordan, thanks so much for being on with us today.

Thank you so much, my guy, I appreciate you.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. My guy love it. We were talking earlier. Yeah, it brings back so many memories, some good, some bad. So we got to go with this first, right? How did you know I'm going to make binge-worthy pickleball? When was that that moment, right?

Speaker 3 (10:42.978)
So before I was doing binge worthy pickleball, I was doing gym comedy skits. When pickleball started coming around, I was already in the habit of making sports comedy. At a high quality level. Sure. With drones, with steady cams. And I said, guys, this is like our gym humor, but round two, this could be bigger. I was telling you for the last 10 years, I've been renting out movie theaters and premiering.

short films of me and other filmmakers, like short film movies like Tales from the Crypt, or other feature length movies that put short films as their feature length movie. It's a bunch of short films from all these creators. So then I was like, this is where Pickle Flix needs to be, is every year they do a new round of films, of short films, in one movie.

I like the thing, you cause you're now, you're speaking right to the audiences that we are currently seeing, right? They need shorts, they need small bites, little nuggets they can digest and get on with their day and move to the next thing. And that's so perfect. It's sad to say, but it is the world that we're living in right now. Yes, yes. And so we know some of the same people like Evan Slaughter, great guy, funny. So what's the wildest or most unexpected thing you've captured or filmed?

Yeah, so full transparency, a lot of these creators, we scoured all their films and we hand selected what we thought were the best ones to put in the movie. So there's three of Evan's work in our movie. Wow. Yeah, I kind of don't want to give it away, but this guy is so funny. His backstory of how he even came to be an influencer deserves a movie in it or a documentary in and of itself.

But yeah, there's three films and we get a little backstory about Evan. He filmed a little custom bio for us and it's dripped throughout the film. So you'll see a splash of Evan. Yeah, he really brings a...

Speaker 1 (12:33.441)
That's awesome.

brings a lot of shirtlessness to his work. He certainly gets his body of work out there.

Thank

That's the most authentic thing, you know, that's how comedy is. It's gotta be authentic for people to resonate with it. Scripted and highly polished things just aren't working anymore. And so you guys are nailing that.

Yeah, I appreciate that. no, it's so true. Like you have to adapt. And for me, I come from a super cinematic background, steady cam, stuff like that. some of our best work was a cell phone and it got a million views. And I'm like, sometimes I'm like, you don't need the big guns sometimes. You just need a phone. Like Evan, and Evan is the perfect example of just getting your phone out there and making some content. I love that about him and some of these other creators you'll see is they just,

Speaker 3 (13:30.508)
I got a camera, let's go shoot some gold.

Yeah, even if anybody's paying attention, even the young reporters coming out from the local news stations, they're just a tripod coming out of the back of the car and their cell phone on it and some lavalier mics, wireless mics, and that's it. They're getting after the news stories. And I think that allows them to get deeper into the story and actual man on the street kind of stuff.

Yes, yes, yes, yeah, good point.

So let me ask you, so what's kind of, what's your North Star? know, what are you aiming for? Sponsorships? Media network shows? Something else entirely? What's the North Star for Pickle Flakes?

Yeah, mean, we're, so basically we're, obviously we do these live events once a year and I love doing those. And for me, my north star is to have a one, the night of Pickleball Comedy live red carpet premiere at every single movie theater chain across every Pickleball hotspot. I work with the movie theaters, you simply just ingest the movie and it's in the cloud and every theater has it. And then I'm gonna simply like,

Speaker 3 (14:30.986)
As you know, there's pickleball groups like Texas Pickleball, Arizona Pickleball. Like the admins of those groups are leaders in their community. So like we're doing active outreach to have those admins be a representative of the Night of Pickleball in Texas, Arizona. And they can be like the host. And we would like basically have everybody experience the live red carpet premiere that I am so passionate about giving. Cause I love bringing people together, you know, under the theater. That's like.

the core of this company. So that's the end goal is to every year you have the live red carpet nationwide. And then you have obviously what we're doing, what we're experiencing now is the kind of like the world premiere that anyone can watch it for free in the comfort of their own homework kitchen.

That's awesome. So what's something about Pickle Flix that nobody sees that makes it 10x harder than it looks?

That's a good question. It is the sheer will of sometimes I don't feel like sitting in an editing room for 10 hours a day watching the screen and replaying time where I want to go outside and hang out with friends. I actually want to go play pickleball, right? I can't. So it's like I am battling all this stuff. And then I have to obviously I have my company. My main company is Jordan Bryant Films. I've been servicing clients.

And so I have to keep that while I'm balancing this kind of startup. And it's been crazy. So I'm really doing two full-time jobs. it's challenging. when things get stressful, you're editing comedies. You really have to kind of put yourself into a peak state, which is why I love that you interviewed Brian Bradley on your show.

Speaker 1 (16:09.758)
Gosh, that guy's crazy! He got me out of my chair and everything.

this guy and I'm like dude my guy is interviewing my guy.

Yeah, I mean it's so what a small world, you know I mean as big as pickleball is for for cool guys like you and me and Evan and Brian to come together Only in pickleball. I think this does something like that happen. That's that's awesome So if every up-and-coming creator and pickleball could hear one message from you, what would it be?

Well, I mean, I would say come experience the Night of Pickleball Comedy with us. Like, create your skits and submit it to us. And what we're doing is after this, you'll be able to submit to us and through a panel of judges, you'll get like, judged. And if your skit makes it, you'll be in the 2026 Night of Pickleball Comedy Live and the worldwide premiere. So we're offering people to come like submit and it literally be like, that's how it's going to be for the rest of the rest of the 10 to 20 years.

You know, Netflix, you have a criteria. It's gotta be shot in AK. It's gotta be good audio. It's gotta be a good story. That's kind of like where we're going is like, hey, we're not saying it's gotta be shot in AK. We're not saying it's gotta be like the best audio. What we're gonna say is it's just gotta be funny. submit it to us and if you get approved, you guys will be in the lineup one day.

Speaker 1 (17:25.089)
That's awesome. Yeah. Yeah. We're going to work on that for sure. All right. Let's do the calls to action. Where are people going to find all of this? Cause we're going to put this out on a Tuesday and then Pickle Flix is on a Friday.

Yes. And again, really appreciate you doing this, man.

for Dink or Destroy today, we're going to talk about sex partners. Yes. But this is opposite sex partners that aren't your spouse. So we're talking about like what people call their work wife, or if you have like a workout friend that you go to the gym with. How are we feeling about that? Gym buddies, or maybe your mixed doubles partner is not your spouse.

yes.

I don't like those.

Speaker 1 (20:03.384)
So Dink It Destroy is something we say yes, thumbs up to, we dink it over the net, or destroy it thumbs down. So we're talking about sex partners. Hold on a minute, so that's man-man, girl-girl.

No, stop. So, I'm talking about like how at your office you kind of have your work wife.

I'm kidding.

Speaker 1 (20:25.112)
Work wife. Yes. I have a work wife balance.

So how do we, how, mean, how are we feeling about all that? Like, I feel like if your work wife knows like your Chipotle order, that's fine. But if she also knows why you cry in the shower, that's a little different.

Yeah, so my work wife, I don't know if she wants me to name her on here. So, and now I have two almost. So yeah, she definitely knows it. Like I don't eat gluten. She knows I try to eat healthy. It obviously shows here on the podcast. Camera adds 10 pounds to your head, apparently. But I think, okay, let's, so we need to go back first and say, I think if you're, if you're opposite sex partner, non, I don't know.

whatever you're trying to say here. I think if they're super hot, then there's a problem there. They can only be Uggamugs.

my gosh.

Speaker 2 (21:19.554)
don't think so. I don't think so. think number one, depends on your current state of your relationship that you're Agreed. But also, even if they're not UGGa monsters,

Uggermugs. I'm sorry. Uggermugs.

If you know like your work wife's menstrual cycle, that's just too far. Like she should be on our taxes at that point.

Well, no, maybe she's, maybe you come down so much she's syncing up with you because you're the alpha female.

I don't have a work wife, I'm talking about you.

Speaker 1 (21:46.838)
No, but her menstrual cycle would sync up with yours because you're the alpha female. That's how that works scientifically.

I we just went way off topic.

I'm talking about, let's say you have a partner in a business and they're not your spouse. Sure.

So you're spending, I tell people this all the time when I do training, the people you work with you should love, right? You should have some sort of love and affection for because you're with, generally for most people, you're with those people more awake hours during the week than you are with your own family.

Right, but if your gym partner knows your macros, but also like your marriage problems, I think that's a problem. I think you're sharing too much.

Speaker 1 (22:26.222)
I don't know, is there a little therapy? You know, so if they're same sex, that's different. Okay, okay, okay, okay. Opposite sex. Yeah, I think that's probably a little much. They don't need to be your therapist.

We're not talking about same-sex. Sit.

Speaker 2 (22:40.074)
You shouldn't be sharing all of that. You know, like if you're sharing your Google calendar, I mean, that's a situationship now. We shouldn't be there. Do you have, okay, how about having like, we're tanning buddies. We go tan together. No, that's weird. Okay, so where, what is weird? What is not okay?

That's weird.

Speaker 1 (22:56.896)
Yeah, I don't know. think you start sharing a lot of time with that person. But we're really just saying, it, yeah, it's good to have or not good to have, right?

Yeah, is it? What do you think, paddle princess?

guess it just depends on the situation. I mean, like, the three of us, know each other, and Guy knows a lot about my personal life, because I share it here with you guys, and...

What if David came home and was like, yeah, so, you know, my partner, and then just starts telling you like all this stuff about her. And would you be like, hell no. Like at what point are you just like, no, we got a situation coming

got over the line. I mean, if he came home and started telling me tea, I'd go make some popcorn and sit there and listen to it because I like living vicariously through other people's drama. But if it's something to where it started crossing the line of, you know, affecting our marriage or if I felt like there was a line being crossed outside of the normal boundaries of people talking, I when people spend time together, they're going to, you know, talk about their lives and things along those lines.

Speaker 4 (23:56.614)
And like you said earlier, it does also stem from a place of where you are in your marriage. So if your marriage is solid and you guys feel secure together, then I don't feel like it would feel so much as a problem than if your marriage was insecure. And then when you had somebody come into that space, you'd be like, they're a friend. You wouldn't see it as this is starting to be a problem.

So it's more about you than about them. Well

We can go either way.

Yeah, so to put it in, I mean, I don't think it's fair for the law enforcement side, because if you consider the majority of people, 99 % of the people in the world experience one, maybe two traumatic events in their life, right? I've experienced 900 to a thousand traumatic events in my life. Likewise, my peers in that world. So there's a different sort of bond over that, because we've experienced those traumatic events. We've been in trauma together. you do...

I've been in trauma with you for 22 years.

Speaker 1 (24:58.062)
I'm walking drama. I'm walking drama. But you know what I'm saying? So there's a different bond there where I would care if it was a female partner. I would care like something happened.

Right, but the last female partner you had you were engaged to. And then we became... okay.

Okay.

It was like 20, over 20 years ago.

Then we became workout partners and now we're married. I'm just... And workout. Okay. So I'm just kind of saying like there is a history. So I could see it both ways. I've heard it both ways.

Speaker 1 (25:23.854)
were coffee partners.

Speaker 1 (25:33.006)
hell have you. I have.

I've heard that it can be good and that it could be bad potentially. Yeah, I keep your eyes open

Yeah, eyes in the back of your head. Yeah, I guess I'm kind of a... I think it's nice. think it's the right thing to do in the right measured ways. I think I'm going to be a dink on it, again, in the right measured ways with the right amount of openness and transparency. I think it's a dink. I think it's fun and you have different people that come in and out of your life. And so why wouldn't you get to know somebody?

I'm a dink too, although I was kind of playing devil's advocate. But I mean, seriously, like even like our cheer coaches and stuff, a lot of them were male and I'm still friends with them to this day and they are super fun and we hung out and we laughed about things and talked about things and you know, I mean, I don't see there's a problem with it. I think it's a character. Yeah. So I'm a dink.

You're playing double B.

Speaker 1 (26:26.894)
I agree.

Yeah, I'm a dink as well as long as it's done respectfully and you guys, there's just an understanding that hey, we are friends, you know, this is my family and we are friends.

Let us know what you think.

Let us know if your marriage failed.

my gosh

looking earlier today at different biohacking things, you know, just kind of things to get rid of toxins and I found a company that applies frog poison from tree frogs to your skin. So they burn your skin and then they put on this poison from these tree frogs and it's supposed to give you like your whole face will swell up.

and then you throw up multiple times and you're supposed to purge all of the toxins that are in your body. I think that this is just way too extreme. They said that after you throw up, then you have like a 20 minute of a flu-like purging. And so I guess you're like, you know how you get the sweats and stuff when you have the flu?

What in the hocus pocus?

What in the froggie when it court?

Speaker 4 (28:18.676)
I thought it was so interesting. Like, who is paying to go to this place? I guess it's derived from cleansing ceremonies from Amazonian tribes. And it's sold as a cure for anxiety, migraines, chronic fatigue syndrome, and a lot more.

The number.

Speaker 2 (28:35.274)
not do Amazonian Tribes and just do Amazon Prime and just get me some detox pills of some

Well, they said the reactions are strong and include tachycardia, sweating, and severe vomiting, followed by a state of apathy and drowsiness. And people are paying so much money to go to these places and have this done.

Bye.

Speaker 2 (28:57.614)
Of course they are.

Now, you said it's derived from frogs. Yes.

poison from the tree frogs. Kambo, okay?

I'm to say they don't have enough research to know the long-term side effects.

and maybe grow flippers who knows

Speaker 4 (29:13.614)
Well, I guess it's banned in Australia and doctors warn against that it's potentially lethal.

Band down under. Put another frog on the barbie.

I think that's ridiculous.

Yeah, I agree.

That's beyond. mean, no. It's a I don't know if we... No, this is just news. So it's not...

Speaker 2 (29:34.412)
What news I don't like.

I know, but I just I found it so fascinating. did a deep dive into it because I was just very confused on who would want to go fly thousands of miles, have their skin burned to have this poison put on them and then have this reaction to get rid of toxins like.

Is there like a, is there before and after photos maybe? Maybe I can judge it by that.

Well, it's inside toxins.

your inside toxins. It's not gonna like get rid of your wrinkles on your forehead.

Speaker 1 (30:01.142)
Sometimes antitoxins show on your outside.

Well, then it ain't worth it. If I don't have outward results, I don't want it.

Nobody can tell that.

If I'm not snapping flies out of the air after this

Right? That would be cool.

Speaker 4 (30:15.384)
Yeah, but I guess it's like this new upcoming trend that people are doing. I am not on that train either.

I am not on that trend ring.

i don't if that's news you can use but take it for what it's worth

News to avoid.

Yes, you can use it to not hop on that train.

Speaker 1 (30:29.834)
