The Pickle Podcast #34 - Jack Wilson

27:25BarryHOST
Like on ice or just like
J
27:31Jack WilsonGUEST
We would show up to the warehouse in the morning and they had all these freezers plugged in.
J
27:39Jack WilsonGUEST
And another guy that unplugged the freezer was packed full of meat, chicken, and fish.
J
27:51Jack WilsonGUEST
You just kept pushing it and dropping the price wherever you had to go to get rid of the meat? No, I mean, the prices were set.
B
29:30BarryHOST

EP #30: Mindset - Run Through The Wall with Jack Wilson
J
27:12Jack WilsonGUEST
the, the, the biggest thing that I, that I always start with is, um, you know, we're all born with the DNA of a winner.
J
27:20Jack WilsonGUEST
It's our, it's our birthright, right? You, you come out, every- everyone that has children, you know, and parents, you, you want the very best for your kids.
J
27:29Jack WilsonGUEST
That's always the intention, is, you know, you wanna load your kids up so they can go and be, be successful in life.
J
27:35Jack WilsonGUEST
So I'm a believer that we're all born with the DNA, and it's our birthright to go out and be successful.
J
27:42Jack WilsonGUEST
The thing, though, that separates winning from losing, success from failure, it's a thin line, and it's called preparation.

Mm-hmm.
J

Uh, long story short, I make it 138 miles, and I had run out of water, so I did eight miles with no water, developed the beginnings of rhabdo, which is a, a very serious, um, kidney.

Jack WilsonGUEST
I g- I wanted to get into something competitive and different after I retired, and I started doing boxing lessons just 'cause I wasn't a big weightlifter, so I- It was like, oh, I needed something to work out on.
Jack WilsonGUEST
And, uh, he was talking about, like, the most explosive athletes are boxers on how fast they have to move.
C
87:00Chris TownsendHOST
How many times do you go, "Hey, listen, I saw this," and you guys talk about, you know, what, what to work on and how to improve?

Jack WilsonGUEST
I think for the most part, it's him coming to me with something just because I don't want to say, hey, I got something for you.
Jack WilsonGUEST
If he's feeling good and he's doing something that mechanically – maybe I think is not what he's normally doing, but it's working, then you keep doing it.
Jack WilsonGUEST
So it's for like for right now, like I talk about his timing and you're finding a lot of balls in the air lately since he's been back and even in his rehab assignment.
Jack WilsonGUEST
So we talk about how to angle the bat to start to make it so it's a little more flatter, getting back to his type of swing.

On Cannabis and Mental Health

Dustin GrahamHOST
So, yeah, Jack, would you mind giving us a summary of the meta-analysis sort of which was published in our April issue? Yeah, of course, Dustin.
J
5:36Jack WilsonGUEST
You know, mental health and substance use disorders are among the most common conditions for which cannabis is used to treat, but we don't actually have an up-to-date or comprehensive understanding of how effective or safe they are for treating these conditions.
J
5:52Jack WilsonGUEST
So we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomised control trials where cannabis was used to treat any mental health or substance use disorder.
J
6:03Jack WilsonGUEST
And when we looked at the studies, we found that there were 54 randomized controlled trials that investigated the use of cannabis for the treatment of mental health and substance use disorders.
J
6:13Jack WilsonGUEST
We found no evidence to suggest that cannabis was effective in treating depression, anxiety, or PTSD among that RCT evidence.
J
6:22Jack WilsonGUEST
And that's concerning because they're three of the leading mental health conditions which cannabis is often prescribed.
J
6:29Jack WilsonGUEST
In fact, there was not a single RCT that examined cannabis use for the treatment of depression.

Dustin GrahamHOST
But I'm curious to get your perspective on why do you think people are sort of so willing to overlook the gaps in our knowledge about cannabinoids, but still there's this push to use them for treating mental health disorders? And then also maybe to ignore some of the fact that cannabinoids are not necessarily harmless too, right? They could be causing harm.

I didn't even see the, the, the rest of the Pirates [laughs] for, like, two months.
Jack WilsonGUEST
Like, they sent me out because I was gonna have so much of a rehab, they sent me to, uh, you know, spring training.
Jack WilsonGUEST
But, you know, for him, like, the first thing you think of is, like, okay, what can you...
Jack WilsonGUEST
How can you turn this into a benefit? Like, okay, you can be a really good teammate.
C
76:01Chris TownsendHOST
Father of Jacob Wilson, and, you know, i- if you could go into the clubhouse and say, "Hey, man, I want you to talk to Hernáiz, I want you to talk to Gelof, I want you to talk to these certain guys," what advice would you give these guys? That next up mentality, but this is now your chance to shine.
