• 21 Felonies at 16 to $175M Empire (INSANE True Story)

  LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ From pronounced dead to $100 million—recovery mogul Ryan Zofay unleashes unfiltered truths about ultimate transformation in this raw Dropping Bombs episode. The founder of "We Level Up" and author of "An Unlikely Businessman" doesn't sugarcoat his journey: 21 felonies by age 16, mother introducing him to drugs at 11, high-speed chase ending in death, then clawing back to build a $175 million addiction recovery empire. This isn't another rags-to-riches story—it's a masterclass in radical responsibility and trauma transformation.   Ryan exposes why voids create values, how unexpressed emotions fuel conspiracies within (like suppressed truths in society), and the real "man up" mindset that scales businesses amid chaos. Ready to level up? This conversation will shatter every excuse preventing your empire-level breakthrough. 🔗 Resources 🌐 Ryan Zofay Website — https://www.ryanzofay.com 🌐 We Level Up Treatment Centers — https://www.welevelup.com 📚 An Unlikely Businessman (Book) — https://ryanzofay.com/book-author/ 📲 Ryan Zofay Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/ryan.zofay 👍 Ryan Zofay Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/theryanzofay ▶️ Ryan Zofay YouTube — https://www.youtube.com/@ryanzofay 👤 Ryan Zofay LinkedIn — https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-zofay 𝕏 Ryan Zofay X — https://twitter.com/RZofay 🎵 Ryan Zofay TikTok — https://www.tiktok.com/@ryanzofay   Watch the full-length video version of any Dropping Bombs episode here on YouTube.   Brad Lea is a self-made entrepreneur who turned small-town grit into a multi-million-dollar empire.

• Jake Paul Exposed by Real Champs: David Benavidez and Matthew Attalla

  LightSpeed VT: https://www.lightspeedvt.com/ Dropping Bombs Podcast: https://www.droppingbombs.com/ In this punchy Dropping Bombs episode, David Benavidez and Matthew (Mateo) Attalla expose the real playbook for champions inside business and boxing. Benavidez, the "Mexican Monster," breaks down fight‑or‑flight resilience, training until it hurts, and the mindset that keeps him undefeated—and locked in for Riyadh on November 22 versus Anthony Yarde (watch free on DAZN). He gets raw about hitting rock bottom, building a bulletproof prayer routine, and why confidence comes from work, not hype.   Attalla lays out how BOXR went from a condo and parking lots during COVID to four Miami locations and thousands of members, and why boxing's discipline translates directly to leadership, sales, and stress control. Together they unpack Saudi's new money, Jake Paul's fighter‑promoter model, sponsorship economics, and the brutal truth: if you're not getting better, you're slacking. If you're serious about leveling up your life, your business, or your fight game—this conversation is your wake-up call to stop playing small and start dominating. 🔗 Resources 🌐 David Benavidez Shop — https://davidbenavidez.shop/ 🥊 BOXR Gym Website — https://www.boxrgym.com/ 📲 David Benavidez Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/benavidez300/ 📲 Matthew Attalla Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/mateoboxr/ 📲 BOXR Gym Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/boxrgym/ 📧 Sponsor David's Fight Trunks — [email protected] 📺 Watch David vs. Yarde FREE — November 22, 2025 on DAZN 🌐 Benavidez vs Yarde (event page) — https://www.dazn.com/en-GB/news/boxing/david-benavidez-vs-anthony-yarde-fight-time-ringwalks-running-order-streaming-watch/1o3e44gg69d4a1g9565o8ntm1f Watch the full-length video version of any Dropping Bombs episode here on YouTube.   Brad Lea is a self-made entrepreneur who turned small-town grit into a multi-million-dollar empire.
