Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, BFF listeners, you can find us every Wednesday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or YouTube. Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon Music. Okay. All right. We're recording BFF's Bretman Rock. Welcome to the show. Aloha. Thank you so much for having me.
Starting point is 00:00:19 And now, with the aloha, you're in Hawaii, right? Yes, sir. So, my first question. first of all, congratulations. You're the face of Nike for Pride Month, which is pretty sick. Thank you. I thought you were saying congratulations from being from Hawaii. I don't know if I'd say congratulations. Are you from Hawaii?
Starting point is 00:00:39 Yes, I lived here. I'm still here. Yeah, I lived here since I was eight. And am I reading this correctly that you never go to L.A. because you don't want to deal with all the L.A. garbage and influencers, so you just stay in Hawaii? Is that true? That's half true.
Starting point is 00:00:56 I mean, I don't like L.A. because it's just, like, such a fast life, and I'm so used to, like, the island life, you know, it's super slow. And I don't know. I feel like people in la likes to touch each other and i don't not like being touched like to touch what whoa wait pause what do you mean like to touch each other they're just like touchy people or yeah like very touchy people like which i love in some cases but like if i'm at the club for the first time like don't be shoving your hands down my ass you know what i mean
Starting point is 00:01:25 your your mouth just don't touch it don't touch it don't touch me period yeah okay no fair enough i was just wondering what the boundaries were if it was just like a just don't throw your hands down your throat or no i meant like my ass but i wasn't sure if i was allowed oh you can say you can say whatever you want oh bitch i could cuss this whole motherfucking time seconds but yeah i'm out here watching the way i'm motherfucking time. We've only been on for five seconds, but yeah. I'm out here watching the way I motherfucking talk. Don't need to watch it on BFF. No, not at all.
Starting point is 00:01:50 All right, so Hawaii, I've only been there when I was 12. There's like, to me, if I looked at you right now, the way you dressed, your vibe, it's like, where is this guy? I'd be like, oh, he's in LA or New York. Hawaii has this type of vibe like this? No, honestly, it's just me. And that's another reason why i like staying here because over here i don't have to share my starness because i feel like everyone in la is fucking famous you know what i mean but here i feel like i'm the only one you know i obviously i'm not the only one but you know
Starting point is 00:02:21 where are you in what island are you on um oahu okay so yeah i think that so there's what oahu maui those are like the two kind of big guys right yeah oahu is more like it's like a mini la basically for real la was an island yeah that's how that's how like i would describe um oahu like our town so How big of a star are you then? You just said you like hogging the spotlight. You walk out there, can you even walk down the streets in Hawaii? Well, okay, let's put it this way. Our population is around 2.4 or 2.7.
Starting point is 00:02:57 With my followers, I feel like I could create seven more islands. You know what I mean? So, yeah, I am a motherfucking star i don't care star you are like the fact that i gotta do the math for you you should know yeah well no what's crazy is because this whole thing's like oh he doesn't like the la life but you're you i mean you are talking like the most la human in the world with the exception of being like i want to hog it all but you seem like you fit right in in la be getting all the paparazzi and like it all i would fit in la to be honest but i don't know i just feel like my like as a creative like i can't really be as creative as i
Starting point is 00:03:36 would like to be in la okay you know what i mean because i think the energy in la is just like very draining for me mentally you know but in in Hawaii, I'm like mentally happy here. And like the creative juices just. They're flowing. It's the island vibes. Do you have like a group you film with? For the sake of my job. Do you have a group you film with out in Hawaii or not?
Starting point is 00:03:58 I have like my sister only. She's kind of like who I do collabs with, I guess. Okay, cool. Yeah. Like I said, if you're a fucking star, you don't need co-stars you have miss k you have miss k too oh miss k she's lovely i love miss k and yeah i mean i do have like my own little group but it's just like my family i wouldn't i don't really have like friends that i like film with even though i literally just uploaded a video of me today with bella porch but that was when she was here i feel like this whole interview has been me contradicting myself so far speaking of your family brettman rock which i didn't realize so i made the whole interview
Starting point is 00:04:37 worth it the name is based on brett the hitman heart and the rock combined to one your dad was like a wrestling fan that may make that the sickest name I've ever heard. I assume your name was Bretman Rock. Those are both your first names. That's your first name. Right. Who has two first names that are that hard? That's a pretty sick question.
Starting point is 00:04:54 A lot of Asians do. It's all like Mark Anthony, Princess May, Edmund Jr. Girl, we all got two names. So do you care about wrestling at all do you even know who Pret the Hitman Hart and like the Rocker I care about like wrestling divas To be honest because even when I was growing up My dad made me watch
Starting point is 00:05:13 WrestleMania or whatever unfortunately And you know I would just Pretend like I liked watching them Beat up each other but girl you know damn well I was waiting for the divas so like do you have Any divas that you remember that's like oh that was my girl yes i really like that girl named maria because her entrance was always like or something like that um the bella twins are amazing oh yeah they were so hot they were so good love the bella twins yeah so yeah i know a
Starting point is 00:05:42 little bit how did this this Nike thing come about? How did you become the – I mean, to me, that's a huge honor. How did that come about? Do you believe in, like, manifesting or is that, like – No, I do. I do. I think that you can, like – you can manifest in a sense of, like, building confidence, yeah? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:03 I don't think – I don't know if I, like, like believe in like the the crystals and like that type of i think if you put in the work and manifest i know i know i seen that you're big into the crystals so i i don't know no i love no i love that like um like i love your um how you see it i guess but um yeah but with the nike thing i would always like lie to people in like my high school and tell them like I was a Nike athlete. Also, I did hurdles in high school. I went to states as well, period. Jeez. Athlete. She a student athlete.
Starting point is 00:06:34 But yeah, I've always told people I was a Nike athlete. And then I guess as I was making my videos, one of the heads at Nike is also from Hawaii. So one time they had like a project and she had hired me. And that was just to do an ad with them. And then I went to go to Portland. And I guess they fell in love with the bad bitch. And now I'm a Nike athlete. You know, my title for Nike is technically the people's athlete.
Starting point is 00:07:01 Because they can't put like the hurdler, Bretman Rock. No, I'm just the people's athlete. You know, you faked it until you made it. That goes right after your name, The Rock, the people's champion. So there you go. You're fulfilling the name right there. Yeah, people's athlete. You really are.
Starting point is 00:07:15 People used to ask me all the time about my name. And I'm just like, yeah, I didn't give myself that. If I gave myself a fucking stage name, it would have been like Josh Anthony or something like that. Something simple. Who the fuck? I like that name, Josh. Josh Anthony? Yes, Josh Anthony.
Starting point is 00:07:31 That's how I came up with it. I literally saw your name. It's a basic name. So are you guys ever communicated? Do you like Josh and Bretman? I don't think so. I think it was our first time talking, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Thank God. What is this video here that we have it and i see the neon sign are we gonna watch it i assume it's something but the sign the house singer songwriter actor actress athlete activist and a scientist on the motherfucking side is there just on the side just when you have free time right how long by the way oh you blew up in 2015 Alright let's see the video I don't know what it is We'll react to it Hi guys it's Robert Moxon
Starting point is 00:08:13 Your songwriter, actor, actress, athlete, activist A scientist on the motherfucking side The star of Christmas And the coconut water connoisseur And you're watching my motherfucking stories. Bitch. Oh, my God. Please let that be the one video that we watch.
Starting point is 00:08:37 Oh, my God. There's probably more. I cannot. That's my intro for, like, YouTube. Because people always ask me, like, what do you do? So here it is, bitch. I like that. You know?
Starting point is 00:08:49 You do all of it. Let them know. And I'm always adding things to it. It's super long now. That was like me when I had the short hair. Now I'm like, super long, my title. Yeah, now you got to add the Nike on there too. Yeah, I got to put Nike on there, Nike athlete.
Starting point is 00:09:03 I got to put newest youtube red star in there bff star now true bff star that's fact how so in 2020 last year was this the first time you did the makeup line the wet wild collection i had my first collection with morphe right after i graduated high school and i actually started working on that when I was still a junior in high school. And it was like a highlighter palette. And then I did one with ColourPop. And then the recent one is, I think is. So you could have been like, yo, idiot.
Starting point is 00:09:38 That was a dumb question. You've done a bunch of them. Yeah, like bitch. Yeah, get your shit together. Is this in the world of influencer? and we've had a bunch of them, is this the business side? Is this the best thing you're doing, the business side, the makeup? Yeah, I mean, like, yeah, basically.
Starting point is 00:09:57 It is the business side, and it takes forever, like, making makeup. Like, you would think, like, you just slap on, like, a bunch of, like, makeup together and put your name on it and like call it a day but no like you have to go through so many um procedures and like different ingredients and stuff like that so yeah i would say it's yeah because um i think when i'm out doesn't test on and a lot of the brands that i work with don't really test on animals so i gotta got to be the animal myself. You are the animal. Bretman is the animal.
Starting point is 00:10:29 What do you think of the Sway Boys? I don't think of them. Oh, really? At all? Not even one time? There's never been one thought? There's no need. I can't believe. People be like, what do you think of this person?
Starting point is 00:10:41 Bitch, do I look like I fucking think of that bitch? Are there any influencers out there? They can be or even. I really don't think of nobody else but me. Stars. Nobody. There's nobody you'd ever want to meet. No stars.
Starting point is 00:10:52 Do you associate with any influencers? I mean, yes. If you had to, who would you pick to be in your squad, your influencer squad? Who would you pick? Oh, I wouldn't. If you had to. If you had to if you had to oh if i had to i've been really into like my gamer friends as of recently like balky ray them pokey main
Starting point is 00:11:14 are you on twitch corpse yeah girl i've been game i've been i'm i'm new on twitch but yeah i wouldn't i i would associate myself with a lot so you need to add gamer to your intro now too. Yes, that too, girl. I'm telling you, that video is so long ago. You guys might as well have just been talking a different language. I don't know any of those. Right. Poke-man or whoever that is.
Starting point is 00:11:35 I know what Poke-man is, but I don't know the person you were talking about. What about just growing up? It doesn't have to be a tweet. It doesn't have to be social media. Just somebody that you think it would be cool to be like go to dinner with. Oh, Britney Spears. Definitely. She definitely helped me through like my parents' divorce.
Starting point is 00:11:53 I know that's a little dramatic. But when Lucky came out and my mom and my dad was like beating each other up, I was like early morning. She wakes up. Y'all hear something? You know, that was me. So what do you think about the Free Britney? What do you think about the free britney movement right now then oh yeah we have to hashtag free motherfucking britney hello team britney that's a long hashtag eh hashtag it is free
Starting point is 00:12:19 britney but i forgot to tell you my email since fifth grade has always been britney spears at gmail.com. And it's still my email today. I use that email to apply to colleges and all of them said it was unprofessional, but I don't give a fuck. Cause I wasn't going to go to college anyways. What's a college.
Starting point is 00:12:34 I mean, I don't even know how to spell college. Unprofessional. I mean, it didn't everybody. I know everybody had weird emails. I feel like you make it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Gmail is all fucking weird. Yeah, it's fake. All right. Brown, do we have games? We have games, right? Yeah, we have a game for Bretman. Okay. So this might get a little juicy.
Starting point is 00:12:54 So it's to cancel or not to cancel because we know that you don't really fuck with anyone from L.A. You don't really fuck with influencers. You just said it. So it's to cancel or not to cancel. We'll throw pictures up of influencers and you tell us what you think about them if you hang out with them cancel it just means like get out like yeah you think they're a waste of space basically yeah do i have to explain why or can i just be like you gotta go it's up to you yeah okay shane dawson um same thing i feel like the internet would stay canceled as well.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I'm speaking for the internet. What would Bretman say? I would say, to be honest, I never really watched Shane Dawson or lighter individual content. So how did you... I wouldn't say canceled. I would just say unrelatable.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Who was your inspiration if you weren't paying? Because I feel you're a huge star now. Yes. Who were you watching before you became a huge star? I guess who I was watching was the pioneers of the beauty industry, which was really ran by a lot of Asian women. Michelle Phan, Bubz Beauty, It's Judy Time. And those girls.
Starting point is 00:14:08 Do you know any of those Brie? No. Yeah. I actually just had, oh, I thought you were talking to me. I was curious how big they were. Like I'd never heard those names.
Starting point is 00:14:16 So I was curious. Yeah. At the time. Yeah. So they were the ones that I was watching. I was also like really inspired by like a lot of drag Queens, like when it was on. So a lot of people, y'all don't know.
Starting point is 00:14:26 No, I don't. I'm just shaking my head like I do, but I definitely don't. Yeah, I was like nodding along as if I knew who you were talking about. I feel like I had a different YouTube than everybody else in the world. Cause every time I'm like talking about
Starting point is 00:14:37 who actually inspired me. It sounds like it, you did have a different YouTube. That is also will speak to why you're so popular now and why you're kind of do it by yourself.'s a very different you know inspiration different path yes exactly all right who do we got next kareem logan paul do you know anything about logan paul bretman uh i think he dm'd me once no To be in his podcast, and I was like, not with your homophobic ass.
Starting point is 00:15:07 And that's what I said. Is he homophobic? Yes, very much so. I don't know if he's homophobic now, but he's had homophobic pasts. We don't fuck with that, especially on motherfucking Pride Month, bitch. We don't do that.
Starting point is 00:15:22 Are you a Lady Gaga fan? Yeah, I'm a monster. Dave's a monster. Yeah, Dave's a big monster. Best concert I ever went to, Lady Gaga, Pride Month at the Apollo in Harlem. It was fucking awesome. Yes, David, you better. I almost gave up on this one.
Starting point is 00:15:40 What's your favorite Lady Gaga song and why? There's so many. There is a right and wrong answer to this, so you better get it right. You got to get a good one, Dave. I know. I know what it is. You can sing it for us if you don't remember the name. Give us a little.
Starting point is 00:15:55 I don't have my phone. Basically, I know what it's about, but I can't get the name. Continue with the game, and I'll think. No, I can't. If I don't have the lyrics in my head, I'll have it. Just give me a word. Give me a word. I know what it's about, but I can't get the name of it. Continue with the game and I'll think. No, I can't. If I don't have the lyrics in my head, I'll have it. It's basically. Just give me a word. Give me a word.
Starting point is 00:16:08 I know almost everything. It's about, it's basically about a guy and a girl and the, it's whether the girl will go back to the guy. Like it's. Alejandro. No, it's not Alejandro. Come on. I would have known.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Alejandro. Okay. I think that was like maybe every song ever written. No, no, no, no. A guy and a girl and a girl is going to go back to the guy. That might be 90% of the songs. I went and tried to find my phone before the show and couldn't find it. This is going to bother the shit out of me.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Okay, we'll come back to you then. We'll come back. You keep thinking. Continue with the game. I'm going to get my phone. Cancel. Here he is. He I'm going to get my phone. Cancel. Here he is. He said it right out of my mouth.
Starting point is 00:16:49 He just returned back to YouTube. Yeah, I just was about to say, he just came back to vlogging. I don't know if you know that. And I don't give a single fuck. No fucks given. He came back. You know what's interesting? He came back right when Frenemies ended.
Starting point is 00:17:00 The second Frenemies ended, he came back to YouTube. That's a little on the suspicious side, I'd say back to youtube that's a little that's a little uh on the suspicious side i'd say i say it's a little sauce a little plant yeah yeah waits for frenemies to end then goes back i mean you know who else came back speaking of beauty um tati came back today i believe did she yeah i saw it on twitter right before i came did she post a video i believe so i i haven't watched it but i i saw her trending okay so tati's back so we'll have to check that out and see what she has to say as well oh wow frenemies ended and all the cancel people are coming back everyone came back because frenemies can't talk shit anymore so we have to we have to be i guess
Starting point is 00:17:41 we're talking shit on everyone now yeah fair, we have to be. Fair enough. I got it. What is it? Can you guys hear this? Yes. They're probably going to be like, oh, you can't play this on YouTube. My favorite song. No, they're definitely going to say that. You're giving me a million reasons. Oh.
Starting point is 00:18:02 A million reasons. Is it millionasons, dog? This song fucks. It's so good. This is putting me in a good mood now. That's beautiful. There's no way we're going to be allowed to play, but it's so good. Not at all.
Starting point is 00:18:15 No, it's going to have to. Something's going over there. You guys think I'm kidding. I literally have. I thought, like, it says. Wow. And I love that you love, the new Gaga songs to respect. This is the playlist from the Apollo when I was there. I'm not fucking around.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I have it. I've listened to it all the time. This song's so good. I'm going to listen to it when the show's done. That's how much I had to get up. I had to get up. I'm yelling at people like, where the fuck's my phone? I got to get, we got Brett and Rock. I need the Lady Gaga song. They're like, what are you talking about? I love it. I love it so much. We're all Gaga stage. he did a Lady Gaga song. They're like, what are you talking about? I love it. I love it so much. We're all Gaga stage.
Starting point is 00:18:47 You're definitely a little monster. Oh, 100%. I just saw Jenna Marbles. Love, love, love. Never cancel her. I fucking love her. We love Jenna. I love Jenna.
Starting point is 00:18:59 Wait, what was she canceled for? I don't even know if she was. Well, technically, she canceled herself she came out and told everybody like about her past about her old videos and she i think it was just like eating her up and that she just felt the right yeah she just apologized and kind of left little known fact pertman rock i invented jenna marbles really so she started. So I hired her out of a tanning salon in Boston and she came to work for me. We had a female website, still a lot. And like how to trick a guy into your good looking, like her first 10 to 15 YouTube explosive videos were when she worked for me. And then she
Starting point is 00:19:38 moved out to LA and just kept exploding. Wow. Okay, talent manager. It also dates me. But yeah, she worked in a little office. Like I was with her when she had Kermit. Like Kermit, when she got Kermit. Yeah, Kermit used to like shit all over my office. She's a queen of YouTube. Yeah, way back in the day. She's the OG girl of YouTube, I would say.
Starting point is 00:20:03 She's a fiend. For real. Yeah, for real. 100%. Literally. All right. Is that the last one or we got another one? way back she's the og girl of youtube i would say she's a for real yeah for real 100 literally all right is that the last one or we got another one one more all right jeffrey star what do we say brettman same thing i feel like the internet would say he's also very much canceled he made his debut with us like his return to the internet. We sat down with him last week and interviewed him.
Starting point is 00:20:28 But also, I feel like he's been around for so long. It's like that uncancellable energy in some sort. Well, I feel like with him, it was like everyone still just buys his makeup. So he's still making money. He's like, all right, if people are going to hate on me, they're going to hate on me. I'm just keep going forward. I think that's his mentality. think so too period last one olivia oh my god wait i thought she dm'd me today bitch tell me why i thought it said olivia rodrigo um we love
Starting point is 00:20:57 olivia jade wait i actually don't i don't even think brettman knows who olivia jade is olivia jade was at like the center of the USC. Like her parents tried to cheat to get her in as a kid. I don't know why she's being held responsible for any of that. I have the right person. Oh my God. Wait, that's the one that was like, she did her way into the college. Yes.
Starting point is 00:21:17 The college admissions scandal. Well, unless I mean, I would do it too. I don't know much about this, but unless, unless she's the one that did it, then she should be canceled. But I, from as far as I know, I think her mom did. I don't know much about this, but unless she's the one that did it, then she should be canceled. But as far as I know, I think her mom did it. No, it was Aunt Becky. But Josh, she DM'd you? Yeah, she DM'd me today.
Starting point is 00:21:33 What'd she say? She said, I'll pull it up. Give me one second. Okay. There's something about the podcast. Oh, she wants to come on? Like 100% something. I think we were trying to get her on during the whole college admission scandal thing.
Starting point is 00:21:45 She's either trying to— Okay, so what'd she do? What'd she do? Is she like an influencer or something? No, her mother is one of the most beautiful women in the history of the world, Aunt Becky on— Full House. Full House, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:58 And they tried to—they basically doctored her resume and said she played sports to get into USC when she didn't. It's kind of a shitty move, I get. But the reaction that these people got, you would have thought they killed somebody. And I don't think people understand that's the reality of those schools. That happens every single day. Also, she was a YouTuber. So she was vlogging her whole college.
Starting point is 00:22:19 She's great looking. Anyway, she said, my team is a little hesitant to let me do the podcast. But just know I'm honored y'all, and I love your guys' podcast. Everyone's so scared. What do you mean? We're the nicest people out there. This is an absolute pet peeve of mine, though. Like, I take a guy like, you know, Bretman Rock or whoever.
Starting point is 00:22:37 When you say your team won't let you go on, your team works for you. I've always felt that way. So if you want to go on it, you can go on it. The team or my agent, uh-uh. They work for you i've always felt that way so if you want to go on it you can go on it the team or my agent uh they work for you you sign their checks if they want to come on it's up to you you it's your decision you can't pass that off that's that period did you want to were you hesitant to come on brettman because a lot of our guests are hesitant to come on you want to know the real tea i verbatimim. This is literally what I said. I've never done a podcast with just straight guys. So I think it'll be really interesting to talk to straight people for one.
Starting point is 00:23:10 I like that. I love that. Verbatim, bitch. That's awesome. Do you think the podcast has been good? I think the podcast has been good. Yeah, it's been fun. Honestly, we're playing game out here.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Like the fuck is fun? Straight people are okay. Straight people aren't that bad. They're okay. Yeah. We're all right. We're all right out here. Like, the fuck is fun? Straight people are okay. Straight people aren't that bad. They're okay. Yeah. We're all right. We're all right. Some of us.
Starting point is 00:23:30 They're all right. Do we have more or is that it? That was it for the game. By the way, that is a wild coincidence that she DM'd you as well. I think she's flirting with you, not trying to get on the podcast, to be honest. I think she's trying to slide. I mean, to be honest. I think she's trying to slide. She's trying to get on YouTube and not on the podcast. Agreed. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:23:47 So, I feel like we're down for both. But anyways, let's just keep going. Let's just move on from it. Super bad. So, you've got a huge new project coming out, 30 Days with Bretman Rock. New YouTube original series. Four part. Want to tell us about it? There is a trailer. Let's watch the trailer and then we'll go

Are you my bootcamp instructor?
Starting point is 00:24:36 Girl, bitch. Bitch, what? I'm tired, I'm starving, and I stink. I feel myself getting weaker and weaker every hour at this point. Oh my God, I don't even know why I'm getting emotional, but... I never really had, like, a breather from, like, social media. Yeah, I'd rather just die. Oh my God, I'm so scared for him. This is some Survivor shit.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Yeah. That's crazy. Like, a little. Y'all. Out there. Ask away. I got. First of all, I think it's funny.
Starting point is 00:25:15 And it's not funny because I haven't seen it. But in that preview, what struck me as funny, you see all these, like, Survivor Man shows. And they're like, oh, I haven't eaten. They're losing weight. And your clip was like, man, I haven't had social media in like 20 minutes. Just keeping it real, keeping it a hundred. The tea is they, they let me have my phone on set, but it was the fact that I had no connection.
Starting point is 00:25:41 So the whole time I literally was just like taking selfies and making videos because I didn't have connection. Right. Play a little Angry Birds or what? No. Even the games wouldn't load. So it was literally like – You were deep in there. You were deep in there.
Starting point is 00:25:55 So was that the hardest part? Honestly, as a Leo myself and someone who is a beauty guru, I think one of the hardest part was not seeing my reflection for a week. It's interesting because I saw the pictures. I mean, you have, this is obviously a very different look that you had on the show versus right now. I mean, right now you look like you're on New York City Club. That's what I love.
Starting point is 00:26:17 No, I had a like an interview before this and I had to like show out, you know, but normally that's not what I would wear. I don't know if we just got mildly insulted. This is an interview before this and I had to like show out you know But normally this is not what I would wear. Yeah, just you know. I don't know if we just got mildly insulted This is an I don't know what it is mildly at least You're like before this is also an interview Review I want to dress like this for this interview. I would have wore a sweats like a sweatshirt for this Yeah, no dad. I would have been bitch, you think I wore this for you?
Starting point is 00:26:46 So who'd you wear it for? No, bitch. Who did you wear it for? I wore it for Michelle Phan, Refinery29. I did an interview with her. Oh, fuck, Dan. You could wear that for us? I mean, yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:57 Now I'm wearing it for you, though. Now you like us. I did have the option to change, but I was like, you know what? Dan needs to see this show. Sure, I'll fucking take it. But, I mean, it sounds like it was just like you're in it, you didn't change, and we got sloppy seconds. Yeah, sloppy seconds.
Starting point is 00:27:13 It's okay. It looks good. What else do we have to know? Anything? I think we covered it. I mean, is this so? You tell us. Wait, what?
Starting point is 00:27:22 What did you say, John? We said you tell us. What else do we need to know? Oh, for the show okay um basically one day youtube was like brett we have the money you want a show and i was like sure what kind of show and they were like what do you want to do and i bitch when i say i jokingly said i wanted to survive in the wilderness or go camping in the wilderness i said that shit jokingly but they fucking ran with it and they cut they packaged it up and then proposed me a show and i was like bitch i'll fucking do it and so yeah we i did the show we did one day of boot camp and a week in the jungle and i learned so many things about like production life i learned that a lot of
Starting point is 00:28:02 survival shows that you guys watch like are not like are fake as fuck like i heard that like their bare grills like goes home like and i was like bitch you and my whole week i was like you need to tell me i could have done all of that just like did some movie magic for the survival thing but no y'all had me out here like living in the jungle for a week straight. My body was literally yours is real. Yours is real. Bitch. Yes. Like even when we, when I had to track and we had to move, I had to get like blindfolded because I couldn't see the outside world. I was the only thing that I was allowed, which I will say is if I was thirsty,
Starting point is 00:28:41 they would, they were allowed to give me like water. Obviously I'm not going to fucking die. But it was just like water that I was thirsty, they were allowed to give me, like, water. Obviously, I'm not going to fucking die. But it was just, like, water that I was allowed. And food-wise, I only had coconuts and guavas because I'm pretty sure we weren't allowed to, like, hunt for, like, animals. Yeah, the Bear Grylls. Like, fucking. The Bear Grylls was a big story. That show, Survivor Man, was huge.
Starting point is 00:29:01 Then it got busted. I forget doing what. But, yeah, that was, like, a big story when it happened. But, like, imagine, like, being hungry and, like, tired and, like, you're all delusional. And, like, the production is on fucking lunch. And all you smell is, like, barbecue. That's fucked up. That's evil.
Starting point is 00:29:17 That's actually cruel. Yes. And they come back with, like, their cameras. And I'm like, I just, I know that more. Yeah, I just went to go fucking cook some barbecue. And it was so bad. And i wasn't allowed to eat it bro you you earlier in the show first of all i don't know if straight guys can say bitch as much as you do if you could i would i would incorporate but i think people like you can't i don't know why they'd be like oh you're a straight dude you can't say it i don't feel that bad for you when
Starting point is 00:29:40 you're like oh youtube came to me with this bag of money to do two weeks. So I'm not crying. Josh, everyone comes to you. Here, give us money. No one comes to fucking my ass. I'd be like, all right, I got to go in the woods for two weeks. Give me money. Done. I'm with you.
Starting point is 00:29:54 And the whole time I was like, at least I'm getting paid for this. At least I'm not doing this shit for free. You're getting a fat bag for that. Yeah. Dave, you're telling me people wouldn't give us a fat bag for BFFs in the wilderness for a week? I'd do it in two seconds. I think that would be kind of iconic. 100%. 100% someone would give us a bag.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Someone wants us to go in the woods for two weeks and we get coconuts and guava and we can be on our phone once every 20 minutes. I'm in. I'm in. Let's do it. Let's run it.
