Make sure you follow our show so you never miss a brand new episode.

Jimmy Claire (2:24): Now let's dive into the show.

Jimmy Claire (2:33): Oh, great question for myself. I don't have the the answer for that, but we shall see going through this conversation. Anyway, let's welcome, Sherman.

Unknown Speaker (2:45): Hey, Sherman. Hey, Jimmy. How's it going?

Unknown Speaker (2:48): Good. How are you?

Unknown Speaker (2:49): Doing well. Doing well. Good to be here.

Unknown Speaker (2:52): So before we get started, can you tell us a little bit about who you are, what you do, how you got started and why you got started?

Sherman Perryman (3:00): So I'm Sherman Perryman, founder of Militant Grind. The reason why I got started is I wanted to work in a business. Malone with my entrepreneurship background where I could actually like impact people and serve a higher purpose. And so I came up with a personal brand and I started thinking about some of the things I used to do in the past, which is like advise people, counsel people, and how I help people, you know, with their personal and daily lives. And I was like, okay, could probably, you know, create a brand out of this and create a business out of this, which is something that I could do effortlessly and do no, like it's absolutely nothing.

Sherman Perryman (3:39): You know, I, I did it for my tax clients, real estate clients, clients, period. You know, people, a lot of people come to me for advice. So the reason did I ask for why? You said why? Right.

Sherman Perryman (3:52): That was the last one. Yeah. And so the reason why, I'm kind of like, I guess I've so gung ho about this and kind of like wants to really, pursue this it's because I want to leave something behind. When I leave the world, I want to impact the world. And so that's why I'm kind of like, you know, I'm, I'm into this.

Sherman Perryman (4:15): I like it. I love being able to see that I'm also making a difference in other people's lives.

Jimmy Claire (4:21): That's a good, that's a good why. No pun intended. So my next question for you is how did you, how were you able to do all of that? It sounded very, it sounds very overwhelming at times. Don't have as an entrepreneur and whatnot.

Jimmy Claire (4:44): So how do you, how do you have the mindset for all of this?

Sherman Perryman (4:48): Honestly, it's just being very efficient, you know, using tools, using other people. I'm not like a one man band. I work with a lot of other people too, when it comes to my brand. And the thing is most of all, it's just being able to delegate, ask for help and whatever, you know, isn't your strength. You definitely should find somebody that where you can utilize their strengths for your weaknesses.

Sherman Perryman (5:13): So. And a lot of things I do do on my own. It definitely is overwhelming. You know, I will say that because you have to do a lot of output. You have to do a lot of figuring out.

Sherman Perryman (5:24): I mean, I have my own podcast or I have to edit episodes and put them out and things like that. And you know, the thing is, you know, that keeps me going. It's just like, if you just be consistent, you know, something will come out of it. And I've been seeing that lately when it comes to the work that I've been producing, you know, people, if I go out in public, somebody will come up to me and say, Hey, I've seen your podcast or Hey, I've seen this. Hey, I've seen that.

Sherman Perryman (5:47): And I was just kinda like shocked like, wow. I didn't even think people watch it like that, but everybody's paying attention. Everybody does. And so with that, I just hold myself accountable to just to keep pushing, keep going because it's getting out there and people do appreciate it as well.

Jimmy Claire (6:05): I definitely know that feeling though I don't know, I'm quite the opposite. I don't have any people. It's only me. Literally, if I took away this background on screen, I'm in my bedroom. Just in my bedroom, that's my studio.

Jimmy Claire (6:22): I don't have a big enough house to have a dedicated room. Set up a true. But but so I've what I do to keep myself consistent, I use some automation tools like Zapier. Today, I just been setting up the most complicated thing I've been doing, trying to build a community and whatnot. I'm not gonna share all that because that's just a a complicated mess, and I'm trying to figure that out as I go along with the steps.

Unknown Speaker (7:00): Right.

Jimmy Claire (7:00): So, it just let's just say, it's just one big spider webs. There's tools I've done this then here or over here and like, holy crap. And I was like, God Zapier exists because I'd be lost without it.

Sherman Perryman (7:17): Yeah. I'm familiar with Zapier, but yeah, even adopting like those tools where you can automate things and, you know, do things a little bit more effortlessly. I feel like that could go a long way too, because you do have to juggle a lot, but thankfully the tools are out there to help you, when it comes to juggling a lot.

Jimmy Claire (7:36): So my next question for you is, how can people adopt this kind of mindset to keep going, to keep pushing forward? Because I know that some days as being an entrepreneur as myself, there's some days that you feel like on top of the world and there's some days you just feel like somebody just kicked the crap out of you.

Sherman Perryman (8:00): Right. I feel like it's just a discipline, You know, like I tell people I'm never motivated to go to the gym. You know, I just go because I'm disciplined enough to go, you know? So it's like, if you could brush your teeth every day, if you could take a shower every day, if you could eat every day, you know, you have to put non negotiable items, you know, or tasks in your, daily life, where it's like, matter what, I'm gonna go ahead and accomplish this. And I'm gonna do this every day.

Sherman Perryman (8:29): If I feel good, if I feel a little down, I mean, hopefully not sick or ill, you know, a lot of us do certain things, including a lot go to work when we're not feeling a 100%. So you have to do that for yourself as well. If you could go to someone's job and give them, you know, eight hours of your time and give them the best of your time, matter what you're feeling, just because you know, you, you getting paid or things like that. Like, why don't you give that to yourself when it comes to some of the tasks that you want to accomplish? Know?

Sherman Perryman (9:00): So I think about it like that. It's like, I need to do certain things for me, you know, in order for me to be the best individual that I could be. So some days I go to the gym and I feel like I, I have a little cold and I'll still go and knock it out, you know, but I'm not gonna, you know, some days you just so worn out where you can't go, but it's like, if you make it up somewhere, then you'll be okay. You know, but I feel like discipline is one of the main pillars where it comes to accomplishing a task no matter like how you feel.

Jimmy Claire (9:28): I have, for me, when I, when I feel like giving, I go back to my vision board, even it's, I have to update it a little bit at the, I think when update after this semester, just because I have not been having any comfort in. Mhmm. But the stuff that's already there, I just keep going back to the vision board. And also just keep seeing the bigger picture things and keep reminding myself why I started, where it's come to, why I'm still doing this, the joy of doing this, and I also remind myself is that my favorite part of what I do is interviewing people and also speaking on stages and meeting people in public versus just everything on the back end. So, even though there's a lot of stuff I had to do on the back end, a lot of the stuff on the front end makes it up for it.

Jimmy Claire (10:31): Because there's some days where the admin's task is like, gosh, I hate this admin task. Why am I doing this? Like, me go back to the example of, on this community spider web. It's literally just, I've been eating at my brain since like a week and a half already. And, and I finally just started putting it into place.

Jimmy Claire (10:54): I'm like, this is starting to make sense now. I was like, why did I was like, why was my brain complicating this more than it really needs to? Mhmm. It's like, your brain just plays tricks on you. Yeah.

Sherman Perryman (11:08): They could be analysis paralysis or self sabotage. It could be all kinds of things.

Jimmy Claire (11:14): And I also want to piggyback off of my other things. Like when I'm not feeling well, I did not go to the gym. I mean, work out of my own house, but because I don't wanna pay for a gym membership and I have a gym membership online, etcetera. But I agree with you that as as all discipline and I've learned discipline over the years of being in karate and when I don't get to something, I make up the next day and fit it in and it's like, this is not, I'm not, I didn't do this today, I have to do it first thing the next day or I won't get to it.

Unknown Speaker (11:56): Right.

Jimmy Claire (11:57): So my question for you is, how does people build discipline? I know I just said karate, but are there something that you do to help build discipline?

Sherman Perryman (12:08): I feel like you could do it in a micro way when it comes to accomplishing small tasks throughout your day and feeling accomplished after you achieve those small tasks. It's like, okay, I'm gonna get up, I'm gonna write this paper, I'm gonna do this, or I'm gonna do that, you know? And, and also writing it down, you know, writing down your task is something I do. I've been doing that for years, just writing it down on an old legal pad and just seeing it with my eyes and then just checking it off each time I knock out a task, you know? So if you say, okay, I'm gonna do all of this today and you write it down and you know, you check everything off at the end of the day, you get a sense of accomplishment where it's like, wow, I did exactly what I said I was gonna do.

Sherman Perryman (12:50): I feel like that's, that could be a solid start that works for me, you know, but you have to have some type of accountability measures as well, just to make sure that you, you know, continue the discipline of doing what you said you were gonna do.

Jimmy Claire (13:03): I agree. Especially like for me, have a digital, digital to do list across all my devices. I use a tick tick to do list, not a sponsor of my show. I'm just sharing it. Just an FYI.

Jimmy Claire (13:19): And so my so for TikTik to do list, I set it up to be a reoccurring on some event, some tasks that I have reoccurring. And then there's other stuff that's recurring once a month or every other month. And and holds me accountable by if I miss something, it will highlight it in red for the next day. And then it says, this is overdue. And then if I miss a couple of days, it says, this is very overdue.

Jimmy Claire (13:51): I'm like, this is very redundant, but thanks for reminding me.

Unknown Speaker (13:57): Yeah.

Jimmy Claire (13:59): I'm surprised they haven't added in the part in the app. It's like, where are you doing? Lazy fart. I didn't go get to, to this test yet.

Sherman Perryman (14:09): That's up to me. That's what that's up. That's something that you have to tell yourself.

Jimmy Claire (14:13): Yeah. Maybe they should put me, let me put in customized quotes for myself and say, stop procrastinating with every reminder, stop procrastinating, do this.

Unknown Speaker (14:25): Right.

Unknown Speaker (14:25): I should suggest it to them.

Sherman Perryman (14:27): Yeah. Have to just add to yourself all that they can only do so much. Why self accountability is, you know, is where it's at. That's what's trying to make the biggest change.

Jimmy Claire (14:39): So my next question for you is where you always, did you always, were you, let's just say, were you born with this kind of mindset or did you have to learn this?

Sherman Perryman (14:50): No, I would say it was kind of like inherited because I grew up in military style type of household. So it was like no room for anything to slip. You know what I mean? So it's a little different. It's not that, you know, I grew up and was like, oh, we, you know, it was like, and everything was on a straight and narrow, had chores, had to do things around the house.

Sherman Perryman (15:12): Didn't watch too much TV was working all the time. So it's not to say that, well, I wouldn't say born. I would say it just kind of like developed, you know, but I feel like a lot of, you know, but then it's also personal too. Like, I've also wanted to be the best person that I could be personally. So I developed some things from that discipline that I've learned growing up and just put that inside of my own life, you know, and, and for me to, to flourish with that.

Unknown Speaker (15:40): So I would say that.

Jimmy Claire (15:43): So my next question for you is, did you, you were, you grew up kind of like military lifestyles, so to speak, Do you feel like that took away from your childhood? No. Of course it did for sure.

Sherman Perryman (15:59): Yeah. I didn't have like Saturday morning cartoons and, you know, wake up eating cereal and stuff like that. Yeah. No. It definitely did.

Unknown Speaker (16:10): A lot of the other kids were playing outside. You know, we were me and my brothers and sisters were getting teased and people call them the slaves because all we did was work. So yeah, definitely did, you know, and I thought I would, if it wasn't for that, I could have possibly like experienced a lot more as a child, but yeah. Yeah. I'll for sure say that.

Jimmy Claire (16:36): Well, mine was kind of the opposite of that. Not trying to rub it in or anything. I ask that out of curiosity.

Unknown Speaker (16:47): Yeah, I understand.

Jimmy Claire (16:48): My next question for you is, what do you think are the best ways for people to hold themselves accountable besides that self discipline? Like could they have an accountability partner of some sort of like maybe a friend or a family member?

Sherman Perryman (17:10): Yeah. I mean, has to do whatever works for them personally, you know, like accountability partners are actually amazing, especially if the person really has your best interest and they're gonna tell it to you like it is, and they're, I'm gonna cut you any slack. Oh yeah. I have several accountability partners for sure. You know, that'll talk to me like, Hey man, what's up?

Sherman Perryman (17:31): You know, get on your stuff. What are you doing? You're slacking or you know, you're supposed to be working, etcetera, you know? So I feel like that that actually works very, very well, but it just depends on the person that is your accountability partner and what they're able to bring to the table and making sure that they are authentic with you when it comes to your journey.

Jimmy Claire (17:55): My next question for you is how's those accountability partners changed over the years or have they stayed the same?

Sherman Perryman (18:03): Currently, nah, it really stays the same though. Yeah. Like, yeah, it kind of like for me to stay the same because honestly, accountability partner will end up becoming your close friend because you will, you'll kind of be vulnerable enough to them where it's like, you, you have a close bond and yeah, I feel like it'll change unless they move away or they get busy or something like that. But more than likely it stays the same. Like I've had one in college that held me to a certain standard when it came to my health and fitness.

Sherman Perryman (18:34): You know, I'm talking about popping up at my house unannounced, Hey, let's go to the gym. You know what I mean? Stuff like that. Yeah, I've definitely had that.

Jimmy Claire (18:45): I think my pro my accountability partner has stayed the same. Mhmm. For the most part, I think we some of the some roles changed a little bit to modify just to get where I wanna go from point a to point b.

Unknown Speaker (19:06): Mhmm.

Jimmy Claire (19:06): But I wouldn't say cutting slack or anything, but being, I wouldn't say even lenient, but not being like a full blown, I'm looking for a good word, but nothing's come to mind at the moment. Basically, it's Mhmm. Trying to just keep me on the right track and not feeling like I'm just a complete another little failure. Like Mhmm. Oh, you did this, you're done, or whatnot.

Jimmy Claire (19:35): It's like, once and done, no. So I don't have a good word for that, so I'm just gonna go with that today.

Unknown Speaker (19:42): Right.

Jimmy Claire (19:43): It's single string out in my head. I'm blaming everything on math. I'm talking to that. So my next question for you is if you had to recommend any, anybody, I don't know, motivation books, what would you recommend?

Sherman Perryman (20:01): I'll recommend my book called from grit to greatness, harnessing the five pillars of the militant grind, and actually have the five pillars on my shirt. So love, honor, strength, discipline, So those are actually the five pillars and yeah, I've, I've, you know, I've had a lot of great reviews, a lot of great feedback from the book. Some people said it changed their life, etcetera, but it was just me giving my best self to it, you know, and put it on paper. Share, stories that everybody could relate to, like biblical current events, some celebrities that everyone are familiar with, like Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, and also my personal stories to help relate people to the five pillars of the militant grind. So yeah, I would definitely say check that out.

Sherman Perryman (20:49): It's on Amazon or you can get it on Kindle or just buy it directly paperback.

Jimmy Claire (20:56): I love it. How you did not hesitate about it. Was like own book.

Unknown Speaker (21:05): Of course.

Unknown Speaker (21:07): I don't know how I, I just, I just love to know how you decided it's like my own book. Not even a slight hesitation.

Sherman Perryman (21:16): Right. Not at all. Gotta be confident.

Jimmy Claire (21:19): Exactly. So my next question for you is, can you tell me what is your podcast about and who's your main target audience and what kind of guests have you had on your show?

Sherman Perryman (21:34): My podcast is mostly about mental health, resilience, dedication, and basically just getting people's journeys of, you know, where they started and where they're at now and how they overcame certain things in their life. So it's pretty vague because I feel like everyone goes through something in their life. Like say, I have attorneys, extra drug dealers, medical doctors, a woman who survived sex trafficking on three different occasions. Yeah, man. It's yeah, I have a whole array, like, veterans, combat veterans, people that have abused alcohol and different type of drugs.

Sherman Perryman (22:17): I mean, it's, it's like all walks of life, but at the end of the day, you know, some of them have some stories that they would like to share or like information and things like that. And so I will look at it more. So like I'm, I'm gathering information on, like say how I should go through life, you know? So I was like, if you are inter, you could find something that you're interested in to help you, like say a woman suffering abuse, spousal abuse, and things like that. And there's women out there that suffer from that.

Sherman Perryman (22:46): So I'll say, Hey, you should check out this episode because she gives some very good insight on how she developed, you know, and how she got out of these different things. And I have a medical doctor talking about COVID and I'm just asking some questions about COVID. So it's kind of like how Joe Rogan does his podcast is where it's like, it's not really specifically about something. It's more so about, you know, anything, all sorts of topics. And if you just want information, that's, that's a one stop shop.

Jimmy Claire (23:17): That's, that's awesome. Like for me, I, I I have a target audience, but I also keep it broad topics just so that it keeps stays interesting, especially because, like, I'll be fair, like, but some of these other podcasts about autism, there are some of them are dormant, and they're not doing it anymore. And I just feel like if it's just mainly about autism, people lose interest, like either the host or the guest or the or just the audience. So I try to make it broad just to keep it very interesting because, like you said, I'm on people that keep coming back. It's not just about autism.

Jimmy Claire (24:07): It's about healthy living overall, but then there's lifestyle, which can mean anything.

Unknown Speaker (24:13): Right.

Jimmy Claire (24:15): Yep. Because like, yeah, if it's like just one specific topic, I guess I, okay, we beat this thing to a dead horse at the moment.

Sherman Perryman (24:23): So I get you. Right. Yep. And that's why I kinda like that's, that's, that's how mine is designed. Cause it's like, I really don't want to stick to one thing.

Sherman Perryman (24:33): Really want to get information on all sorts of topics and things like that. And because I'm such a avid, researcher and learner, I like, I know about a lot of different things. And so I'll probably try to find someone in that field who I could ask questions to, you know? So that's kinda like how, how mines is. So you actually just reminded me.

Sherman Perryman (24:55): I have to find somebody that could talk about astrology and stuff like that from my personal podcast. But yeah, just because I wanna learn more stuff like that.

Jimmy Claire (25:03): I have to take that idea. I have to take astronomies for my next semester in college. Next semester. I don't know if I should be looking forward to it or not looking forward to this for credits.

Unknown Speaker (25:16): I like astrology and not astronomy.

Unknown Speaker (25:19): Yeah. I don't know. Yeah. I feel stupid. No, you're good.

Jimmy Claire (25:25): Well, I mean, either way, I saw the decade anyway, but still, I know, like, I'm not a science person. Yeah. So my next question for you is, what is it? When did you create your podcast and what is your mission of your podcast?

Sherman Perryman (25:46): My credit in August, we got 62 episodes and counting. Cause I have some apps to upload. And the thing is just to give people information, you know, about several topics that they might be interested in learning. So it's like, you can almost find anything, you know? And so not to say that I'm taking Joe Rogan style, but I'm kind of like a person that knows so much about so many different things.

Sherman Perryman (26:16): So like I say, I could have a conversation with almost anybody and be able to ask them questions based off of the topic, based off what I've researched a long time ago or researching now, etcetera, you know? So I have a conversational style of interviewing where it's like, ask questions about, you know, certain topics, certain things that they do, etcetera, you know?

Jimmy Claire (26:39): So my next question for you is where do you see your podcast in the next three years?

Sherman Perryman (26:47): A place where I could actually start.

Go to crazyfitnessgal.com and click on the mall link or click on the link in the show notes to view pricing and more information.

Sherman Perryman (27:24): A place where I could actually start doing them more in person, a lot of one on ones. I'm also impact theory is one of my favorite podcasts, which is something that I, I mimic mine off of, you know? So it's like, I don't, it's, you know, we really don't know what it's about, but he just interviews people that are the best in their field and just gets them to share information by asking questions. So I just see minds like that. Like I'm on an actual studio.

Sherman Perryman (27:51): I wanna do one on one conversations, etcetera, you know, be able to bring big names in and ask them questions that they've never been asked before, you know? So that's my vision for it. You know, I do have a studio where I do, you know, go, but it's like, I want my own. I wanna set it up and actually that's in the works. I am working on my own as well as we speak.

Sherman Perryman (28:13): So yeah, man, it's, it's kinda, you know, things are on up and up.

Jimmy Claire (28:18): For me, I actually, I would like to get to the point where I start having big names, guests, whether celebrities or other fitness enthusiasts or even my huge name authors. And I wanna get to the point where I wanna know how to I like to get to the point where they all heard of my podcast or they some researcher fans, like, hey, yeah, I want to be on this guy's show. Not just like, I actually well, I wouldn't say bribe them, but I think it gives them so much information, it's like, pretty please with the cherry on top. That's what happened. Thanks.

Jimmy Claire (29:01): Well, I mean, honestly, I'm just kidding about that part, but but I mean, it pretty much feels like all the low people have to pretty much beg, so to speak versus where Joe Rogan's like, oh, I've heard Joe Rogan.

Sherman Perryman (29:17): Yeah. You gotta work your way up though. That's a, that's a different thing. You

Unknown Speaker (29:21): know, was gonna come overnight.

Sherman Perryman (29:23): Right. If you look at like how long that guy has been in the industry, how long he's been working, how long he's been consistent, you know, that's the only difference between him and a lot of other people is his consistency. You know, he has, I don't know what 2,000 episodes or something like that. You know, he probably records every single day, steady pumping, steady pumping, steady pumping. And so that's the difference between him and the people that you've mentioned before that you said quit, you know, or you can't find it anymore, you know?

Sherman Perryman (29:55): Also heard after 20 episodes, well, podcasts usually podcasts usually don't last over 20 episodes.

Jimmy Claire (30:04): Well, then you must be in the 10%.

Sherman Perryman (30:09): Oh yeah, for sure. Yeah. Have a lot, but I also heard that after the hundredth episode, that's when it gets a little, you know, pretty active, you know? Yeah. So it's all about consistency, man, perseverance, things like that.

Sherman Perryman (30:23): And some people get in their head, they give up. But if you look at any other success story of any individual that made anything of themselves, they, they went through something, you know, they failed, they kept going, you know, they didn't have it where it was just like, you know, rolled on red carpet for them, but they figured it out. And so I feel like that's the difference between people that are successful and the ones that are not.

Jimmy Claire (30:48): I agree with that because, you know, there's a lot of people. Think one of the toughest things, though, for small podcasts like us, is that celebrities have gone to podcasts. And and I'm not like throwing every celebrity under the bus, but, like, for instance, I heard somebody and I wasn't there, so but this person said, I read this article and this person read an article that it's disgusting to hear about that someone paid for an event, Will Ferrell speaking about the the toughness of podcasting. And it's like, how many fans do you have? How many sponsorships you have?

Jimmy Claire (31:42): And it's like, stuck with plan. And like, you don't know the struggles of podcasting. And it's like, you're already made.

Sherman Perryman (31:50): Right. Right. Yeah, that is true though. Everyone has different accesses to different, different access to different things. So yeah, I can see that.

Jimmy Claire (32:02): And, and I also just wanted to specify, I am not beating up on real farewell. He's not beating up. I just don't like events paying for celebrities to do such a thing like that. It's like, how about you get a small podcaster on or a medium podcaster on that has been doing this a lot longer than celebrities or who's been who knew from like the ground up, I gotta struggle to boom, boom, boom, boom, versus a celebrity is gonna know this. And it's like, no, you just wanted a big name there just to,

Unknown Speaker (32:35): yeah. That's what you, I mean, it's business. You gotta get the big name to attract the people. Know, that's, that's what it is. It's always,

Jimmy Claire (32:43): it's my personal. Disclaimer. They should put that in the disclaimer.

Sherman Perryman (32:48): No, no, no. We supposed to already know that. Yeah. I know. Always business.

Jimmy Claire (32:54): I know. Just, I just thought it'd be kind of cool for something to listen to some other small podcast. I mean, who used to be a small podcaster and worked his way up.

Unknown Speaker (33:07): Yeah, I guess you. I understand. All right.

Jimmy Claire (33:09): Always put him on second after the guest.

Unknown Speaker (33:12): Right. They're right.

Jimmy Claire (33:15): Fake real. So my last few questions for you is who's your favorite podcaster and why? And feel free not to say me.

Unknown Speaker (33:30): I would say Tim. Is it Tim or Tom

Unknown Speaker (33:36): below? Me, I was gonna say Jimmy Crayon.

Unknown Speaker (33:42): I

Unknown Speaker (33:43): don't know who said that.

Sherman Perryman (33:45): Yeah. Yeah. Tom, Tom Below. I think that's how you say his name, but it's because I just likes how he's able to converse with the, with his guests, you know, and it does the same scripted. He has knowledge himself and you know, the, the way he's able to bring out of guests, as far as like his questions and this energy is like very impactful.

Sherman Perryman (34:08): So I always love watching his podcast because he brings about like the deeper side of people, like the heart, you know what I mean? And so. You know, it's not that he's bad for him. He just really wants to get how they think. And it's not more so just like, I'm trying to put them on the spot or anything like that.

Sherman Perryman (34:27): Know? So he doesn't like combat with people. He doesn't go back and forth. He just, okay, well I could see, you know, I could see how you think like that. He's very calm, very poised and that kinda, you know, that's kinda like myself.

Sherman Perryman (34:40): Like I'm calm, I'm poised. I'm not really loud. I'm not really obnoxious and stuff like that. So, I mean, I can be, but I just, I'm just not that type of person on camera, but yeah. And I say, I would say him.

Jimmy Claire (34:53): And then you're gonna add me to the list too. Right?

Unknown Speaker (34:56): Well, I got you.

Jimmy Claire (34:59): I got you. I was gonna say, that's fun. I always like to learn more about different podcasters and listen to those people as well. So I added that question to the mix as a educational purpose for me just to I can just see other people's styles and see what other people are listening to. And I always like to see what people react when I say enough to feel, feel free not to say me.

Unknown Speaker (35:27): Really get them on the spot.

Unknown Speaker (35:29): Right. Right. Oh, God. It

Jimmy Claire (35:32): tricks them up. It's like, weren't expecting the twist. So my last question for you is where can people follow you to find you learn more about who you are and what you do?

Sherman Perryman (35:44): Militantgrind.com is, you know, resource for almost anything that I've going on. I have blogs there, motivational videos. You can check out my YouTube channel where you can find me on Instagram there. You can also contact me and you could also look at the other websites that I have, which is militantgrind.coms. I'm not militantgrindacademy.com militantgrindmedia.com, I help different businesses, source.

Sherman Perryman (36:11): You know, as far as like brand awareness and stuff like that, help them get out their brand the same way that I got mine out, you know? Yeah, that's the best place you could find me. Millet and grind underscore on Instagram or daddy warlocks. And the only reason why I came up with that name is because you should always remember that, but d a d d y w a r l l c s.

Jimmy Claire (36:35): Geez. You have a lot of websites and you wear a lot of different hats. Yeah. I'm surprised like roll up at night and say, holy crap, I'm overwhelmed.

Sherman Perryman (36:49): You have to have system systems in place. Mhmm.

Jimmy Claire (36:57): I'm a, I do have a lot of systems in place, but some days my brain just overtakes all those systems.

Unknown Speaker (37:05): Right. Could understand.

Jimmy Claire (37:08): I'm in it. I'm in it. I'm one person doing everything. So that's sometimes it's not like it's every single day. It's like once in a bloom and it's like, everything just goes haywire.

Unknown Speaker (37:23): But

Jimmy Claire (37:25): That's not consistent once in a day. Blue moon is like, if I'm really having an off day, which I haven't had in a while, I probably just jinx myself. Well, thank you for coming on. I hope you can come back for another time because, I definitely think we can keep going with this conversation and learn more information.

Sherman Perryman (37:47): Yeah, man. Just let me know I'm around.
