Been saving the oil for this one

In thumbnail, dana looks like thanos.

Didn't want this one to end. Could easily listen for a couple of more hours. Hope there is part 2

I've never heard a Dana interview that wasn't captivating. I can't even imagine the UFC without him. Let's cherish this time, this era, of which he has been at the tip of the spear. 🙏

Finally, Dana is on a proper podcast.

“Whatever takes your attention on a Saturday night is my competitor” - Dana White For a UFC fan from the UK where the fights usually take place from 1am - 6am, apparently my sleep is Dana’s competitor 😂😂 He won that match countless times, so fair play 😆

What a great interview! I never knew Dana trained jiu jitsu. Hearing his stories about starting in jiu jitsu was great. Everyone who trains jiu jitsu goes through that car on the chest feeling 😂

Lex pretending he remembers those boxing matches 🤣🤣🤣

I wish this podcast was about 10 to 20 hours longer.

Always happy to see Joe Rogan and Lex having a talk. So excited to listen!

This is the best sit down conversation I’ve ever seen. Lex has a way of asking the right questions to the right people w/ zero extra. Dana is seen my millions of people in millions of different ways. The level of authenticity I felt watching this was very inspirational. Will be watching again when I’m feeling run down. Thank you both.

We use to watch vision quest during wrestling season, heaters maxed, entire team sweating it out on the mats, preparing for war

51:22 'Fook it. Let's do it.' 😂

Easily one of Dana Whites best interviews. Love the behind the scenes back stories. Dana should really think about putting more of this out. Like in a book or a video documentary. Would be an instant banger.

It's so refreshing to see a podcast where the guest talks about things they love opposed to being asked "I gotcha" questions. Dana and Lex are awesome, great job and thank you!

brilliant podcast, with great questions! my first Lex listen!

Damn, wish this was one of those 3 hour episodes 😢

Loved hearing him talk about how much he loves his life. I've been chasing that feeling for so many years. So glad to hear when others have found it!

As a Vegas local and fight man, Dana is a living Legend. Thank you Lex for hosting this great convo.
