Jeff Novitzky is the Vice President of Athlete Health and Performance for the UFC.
Uh, anything else? Yeah, so I was going to bring this up at the beginning, but... The Golden Snitch. That's, first of all, that's Brendan Schaub's name. He gave it to you. So taking on a life of its own, and I think, I think, you know, the last time we talked about Donna asking Alexa, who... The Golden Snitch is. Yes, let's just see what Siri says. It's... Hold on a second. Let's see what Siri says. But I've never tried this. Hold on a second. Who is The Golden Snitch? Here's some information. What? Oh. Yeah. Quaditch. It's something in Harry Potter. Yeah. I didn't know either. After the last time on, and I mentioned, you know, it was in, I think, my Wikipedia profile had had me as, aka The Golden Snitch. Somebody took that down. Why doesn't Siri know this? Hey Siri, who is The Golden Snitch? Okay. Oh, Siri. Ah. Siri keeps going with Quaditch. So... So someone took it down from Wikipedia? Yeah, yeah. Why did they do that? Well, I think we talked about, you're like, hey, I don't know. They just did it. How dare you, people. So... Back up. I think I told you last time. I bet it's back up already. Co-workers call me in. Yes. My family calls me in. They call you The Golden Snitch. Friends call me in. I was at the MMA awards last year, and some Yahoo had a few pops back at me as screaming in between presentations. The Golden Snitch is in there. I'm slinking down in my chair. My girlfriend and I... There it is. There we go. Bam. The Golden Snitch is back up already. I had that UFC on the end. The neck popped up. Beautiful. Just fucking... When they do that, just put your hands up in the air. Make a shirt. Like you won. So you know... Yeah, you definitely should make a shirt. During shows, I'll sit pretty close to the cage, go out in between a fight into the bathroom. It's not Jill Rogan level. Half the damn arena standing up excited to see you walking in and out of the fighter walk. But two or three people in that walk, when I go backstage to check on you, saw The Golden Snitch. So give them recognition. Steve Reed. Steve Reed, our bald security, that badass looking guy on stage. He'll come backstage. He goes, mate, they're calling me The Snitch out there, man. I think I'm you. That poor guy pays for it. Steve's a scary guy. Dude, he's a great dude. He's a great guy. That guy is at the top of his game in security. Oh, I trust that motherfucker. His background is unbelievable. I saw him one time in Las Vegas during a fight. He was sitting on the floor. Something's happening in the fight. The crowd goes fucking bananas and everybody stands up on the floor. Steve stands up and just motions sit down and the entire fucking section sat down. 200 plus people. I'm like, dude, if you can, without even having to touch somebody, just stand up by your presence alone and control something like that. I mean, the best I've ever seen. He's awesome. He's as legit as it gets. Do you, are you going to do anything to market this? Well, that's getting to my store here. It's not marketing, but let me finish the story here. I'm in Chicago this year. I think that was a pay-per-view. You were there, right? Yes. So something happened and I was late getting to the arena and they had cut off kind of the loading dock. I couldn't get to it. So I had my oldest daughter with me. And so we're having a walkthrough where all the crowds walking in and, you know, dudes all over, golden snitch, hey, can I get a picture of golden snitch? My daughter's like, what the fuck's that? What is going on? How old is your daughter? So she's 22. So two days ago, Christmas morning, I'm opening up presents. So I get the presents from my daughters, the three of them, and my middle daughter is very artistic. And so they create these cool sculpted beer mugs and there's four of them. One of them's like bald guy brewing, Novitski something. And one of them says golden snitch brewing company. So it's cool looking thing. And she drew me a black and white kind of rendition of all four, which I'm going to hang up really cool. So then my girlfriend's there. So she hands me the box and she's been telling me all along. She goes, I got you the best fucking present ever in the history of presence. I'm like, the hell is this? So I open up the box. Oh my goodness. Series of t-shirts. I think what size are you? Large. Large. There we go, man. So you, since you created it, you literally and figuratively have to wear it now. This is outrageous. So that picture, there's some, there we go, baby. Ladies and gentlemen, the circle is closed. Look at that. Come on. So I posted a boot on this or something. That's pretty bad. It's like white chain King in Moscow. I think I can say this. Hopefully they'll let me back in. But it's out in front of KGB or FSB headquarters. So that building in the background is KGB now known as FSB. Oh, wow. So yeah. So I posted a picture of, she got me like 20 shirts. I put them on. I have private Instagram, Facebook, everybody in the world's like, take my money, man. Where can I get one? I need one of those. Guess what? I'm wearing it the way in tomorrow. All right. You guys created it. You got to own it now. I got one for shop too. You can throw one. Shops mad at you. Is he? Yeah, he called you the golden rat now. I thought maybe he's misinformed. He thinks first of all, that you were an employee of USADA. Oh, there you go. And that now you're an employee of the USC. He's misinformed about that. And I think he likes to call skeptical. He's skeptical. Hippo. I am skeptical as well. But I, one thing that I've learned from doing this podcast over the years is that there's no fucking way. There's, it's an, it's impossible to know everything. It is impossible. And you have to rely on the expertise of the people who have spent a lifetime studying these things. It's very important. Here's another thing. There's no way these people could be lying about this and it wouldn't massively damage their career going forward. They'd be done. Someone would find out. Someone would get to them. The other scientists would out them. There would be studies done. There would be papers done. The internet would find out about it. Everybody would know. There's no way. I mean, it's, it's pretty unprecedented in writing with the lack of these studies. The Richenko one being the, am I saying it even right? How do you say it? Richenko. Richenko. It's pretty unprecedented. They would put these absolutes in writing, you know, with this, you know, I think they looked at it very hard and detailed and obviously they weren't quick in turning it around. And we would have loved this decision to be made a lot earlier so we could have rooted and vetted it out with Nevada, but they did indeed, you know, sign their names to these pretty absolute statements. And what else can the UFC and I do when these experts are putting those absolutes out there? And I get the people go, oh, what else could the UFC do? You got to understand, folks, this would be career suicide. This is, this is, this is cutting edge science we're talking about. There's too many people that would have a vested interest in calling bullshit. It's, it's not something you don't fuck around when it comes to these things. The people that are at the front of the line when it comes to catching people on these things and the science that they're important, they're involved with, it's this is not, you can't like guess on the outside with no education. It's just not wise. And this is what I keep seeing over and over again is people that have some knowledge, a little bit of knowledge and they're, they're pretending that they're, they have a PhD in this shit. Go, I mean, for those that want to, you know, do more detective work, go read McLaren's written decision on John's July, 2018, July 2018 test. Go read the Rachankov study on the DHCMT and the metabolites and go read the recent clomaphene study where it shows this chlorinated substance. It's pulsing. It goes away, comes back higher than before, goes away, comes back lower, goes away, comes back higher. Crazy stuff. Okay. Are we good?
