We find out how that pattern came about as well as some of his funny patterns like the Pizza fly which never made it commercially but works awesome. Andrew also shares a powerful story of how he survived a devastating stroke at the age of 37. He talks about how he finished a 100-mile ultramarathon in 32 hours, 2 months prior to his stroke.
