Out in the mountains, there's no room for wheat gear. When I'm packing out meat in the heat or loading up for a long-range training trip, I need a cooler that holds the line every time. That's why I use grizzly coolers. These things are bareproof, rugged as hell, and keep ice locked in for days, literally. I've had coolers on the trail, baking in the sun, still holding ice after hauling out out quarters. That's performance you can count on. Whether you're running deep in the backcountry or just stacking meat for the weekend,

Grizzly is built for that grind. Right now, you can get 20% off at grizzlycoolers.com with the code, keep hammering. And that's all one word. And I'm not going to spell it. Keep hammering. Again, keep hammering one word for 20% off. Don't roll with weak gear.

Go Grizzly. Hoyt began with a dream and a simple desire. Create the best bow hunting and turn. target archery equipment possible, and since 1931, that is exactly what they've been doing. I'm skeptical every year that this year's bow will be better than last years, yet somehow their engineers seem to figure it out. I think what sets them apart is their engineers are all avid hunters themselves, so they take their bows in the field every year with intent to make them stronger, faster, and more accurate. Hoyd is actually my lifetime bow sponsor. That is how much

I believe in them. Their products and their drive to always be the best. Hoit is giving listeners of this podcast 20% off products in their store with code cam. Sorry, it doesn't work on bows, but it does work on accessories, including quivers, rest, and my favorite, the go stick. That's code cam at checkout at hoit.com. Every step I take, I move my truth. Every time they tell me stop I use. Every comment, hate that makes my feel, gather up my energy and boom. I hear them talk. Saying the way that I move it's so reckless That is a part of my mind I've been blessed with

Giving my blood so I am relentless Okay This is This is big deal, dude This is huge This is fucking shit talkers 19 I started off with a With an F-bomb

Shit Talkers 19 So our first words Beaped Yeah Where's the turnicet I got to get rid of my gum. So we're going to do the ketone. Then we go,

then we go, good in a hole. God dang. Okay. These never get better. Just kidding. They taste great. And less filling.

How about, okay. Obviously, is that a shirt on backwards? Is it? Yeah, to show the design. Oh, okay. Smart. That was like, remember those rappers that used to wear their shit backwards? Chris cross.

You're crisscross, dude. No, we've got to have that in a reel. Yeah, there you go. Nice. Oh. Hopefully you can get that in the reel. How about, okay, that's what I was going to say. So obviously,

No one would rather be you than them. I mean, you're like the last person anybody would want to be, right? Yeah. Okay. Sorry, I screwed up at delivery. But I do think there's one person who would rather be you than them right now. Now who? The woman who got shot by ice.

I don't know about her. I was thinking the field goal kicker for the Ravens. Tough one. That's a tough break. Because his coach after 18 years got fired. John Harbaugh got fired from the Ravens.

And you know if he would have drained that kick to beat the Steelers and win the AFC North where the fuck it is, they'd be getting ready for the Texans going on to the next, but instead they're out, their coach fired.

How far was it? It was like 20... No, 44. Was it that far? Yeah. But still, Those guys are draining like 60 yarders nowadays. That's rough, but I love to see a big win for big Raj.

Oh my God. So sick. And after the game, you know, it's a little emotional. That was awesome. I love, I mean, what a journey he's been on. He was dropping dimes. He's so accurate. It's crazy.

Yeah. And it's just like, I saw the play or the receiver. He kept asking the, did you see the clip where he kept asking the receiver? Like, what do you want to run? What do you want to run? You know, it's some kid, obviously. Raj is old, like an old man coach. Here's got this young kid who just will do whatever.

So he just said, I don't know what he said. I think he could go route or something like that and just, I mean, dropped a dime. Oh, it was perfect. Yeah, right over the shoulder. I would love for them to beat the Texans this weekend. I know. But, yeah, Ducks got a big game.

We got the Steelers now. It's good shit. Yeah, I felt bad for that kid that missed that field goal. That's rough. The Bobcats won as well. Oh, did they, was that the championship? Yeah. What?

Yeah, they beat Illinois. So they're the national champions of whatever the league that is? Gapier University. Not quite college football. I think they're pretty damn good, but it's definitely not. Yeah, what did the ducks beat them? Did the ducks play him? Yeah, first game of the season.

What, the Grizzlies? No, Illinois. The Bobcats. Oh, so is that not? They came here. They did? Yeah. What was the score?

55, 7 or something like that. Oh, yeah. Okay. Well, maybe they needed a, now it would be a different story. Now they're, they actually should take them and put them in to play the winner of this little bracket that the ducks are in. Yeah, this little. So if the ducks win out and they're the national,

then have the national champs play. That would be a good game. Maybe that's why they won because they played the ducks. I don't know. It can't hurt. I mean, you're supposed to make you better playing a tough competition. Yeah, but I could also see it making half the team quit. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Well shit talkers, baby We've finally got the merch I know Holy shit I can turn this around now

Now uh oh Now look at this Macy's zoom in on these nips Oh shit I wasn't taking it off What That's like how the girls Take off their bras

Oh I know You know It's like what do you Come on Let me help you Show me your tits I mean Did we

Was that in the last one? I did say that Oh yeah I did too after Ella Lang. Hopefully that's still in there. I think I might get a stocking. Restraining order?

Yeah, for watching that video too many times. There's going to be some sort of restriction. You have reached your limit? Yeah. I don't know what it is, but God dang. She's a good kid. Well, speaking of Instagram videos. Oh, yeah.

A friend of the podcast, someone we've talked about before, Mark Dowdle, who is a beast. Yeah, it's done. Is this a Somali stuff? Yes. Oh, shit. I tried to look for, I didn't look that hard, but I did look at his page. I didn't see. Yeah, maybe he took it down.

What was it? But he posted something basically saying, you know, addressing the problems with the Somalians and the fraud, you would think across the board, left, right, gay, trans, Let me stop here. This is all love. Oh, yeah, sorry. So don't. Yeah.

This is all love. Whatever it comes out of our mouths, it's through the lens of love. If you have a big bulbous head and the IQ of a toddler and you're a pirate, it's all love. Regardless of where you're from. Sorry. It's all love. I said, because we didn't do the disclaimer yet. Yeah, yeah.

That's good. I don't want people listening to this thinking that we are serious in anyway. No. Anyways, yeah, so he's addressing that. And you would think fraud across the board would be bad, but it turns out it's not. It's not bad. No. No.

And if someone is of color or comes from a war-torn country or is a refugee, fraud is okay. Right. So it's kind of sort of following the Black Lives Matter playbook. Right. And if you talk out against it, you're actually racist. Oh. and non-inclusive. Right.

Yeah. Because, okay. I, for some reason, I thought fraud was always bad. But it's not. No. That's kind of the old. Old white fraud.

Yeah. The new fraud. Okay. New fraud is good. Inclusive fraud is good. Yes. As long as you're taking from the old white fraud people and giving to The new people is, and I, who would argue with that?

I wouldn't. I'm not arguing with that. I think that's great. I think it's great. Yeah. Anyways, his comments were kind of flooded with people saying that he, that they had to follow him because he's not being inclusive. By calling out shit that's illegal and wrong and stealing and, and miss whatever.

And by the way, let's make no mistake. The kid who got up with the. chrome hearts glasses and and said that somebody broken through the wall and they went straight for the documents that had proof come on oh what the fuck is going on who breaks into a daycare yeah especially when was that the learning one or the probably i can't i don't even all i'm hoping is that this Tim Walts his, I don't want to say life, but job for sure. I think it, well, I know he dropped out. Yeah, for governor.

Yeah. Was it governor? Or is he governor? No, who the fuck's governor? What is he again? No, he is. I don't even know what. Senator?

No, he's governor. He dropped out of the senator race. Don't quote me on that. He don't. I just think he's a clown and that's it. But I don't even know what the fuck he. I think he's the Democrat. I know that.

Oh, for sure he is. He's for sure Democrat. He likes to try to talk to oh, he was a ball coach. Remember that? He was a football coach. Ball player. Yeah. Yeah.

Throw that pigskin. Yeah. So that's him. But what a clown. Yeah. I mean, so I like, I don't know, I like when clowns get called back to the circus. Well, like Mark getting in trouble for what he said, we are also in trouble. We are?

Yes. For saying. It's all love, though, I thought. Right. And this next thing I'm about to say is with all love. And the only reason I use this word is to spread awareness. Okay. Yeah.

Did somebody not like that? No. They said that that hurts people in their community. Oh, no, they said, I'm not making fun of this. Here, I don't even know what you say, but here's what I can say. If somebody, like, if you have a, like, if you have a, kid that is handicapped, that I have nothing but I want to support, sympathize. I know that would be hard. I can imagine how hard it would be. And I'm not, we're not talking about that. No. I mean,

we're not talking about that. We're talking about if I call you a, I'm not talking about a homosexual who's out there and like trying to live their best life. No. I'm talking about instead of saying, hey, dumb fuck, I'll just say, hey. It's not for, it's real friends who are acting like. It's just for, yeah. So anyway, that's what we're not talking about this actual group of people. No. Because, okay, so I don't know what this person says.

But I know the word you're referencing. But every person in the world probably has something. that offends them in some way or knows someone or if you say or their their son is gay. I'm not, we're not talking about that. No. Or they're, I don't know, whatever, but everybody is affected by words in some way. Yeah. So if we're saying that we can't say this word, we can't say this word because that person

and this person and that person and we can't say that either because what if this person has it's like, okay, what do we do? Just, hi. I don't know what the fuck to say. Yeah. can't be thinking about could this offend somebody or this not a it's like i don't know i'm just going to say whatever i got love for everybody i'm not i'm not hating on anyone i'm not racist i'm not homophobic i'm not anti anything i'm just a normal person that says stupid shit

here's the love you know if you're going to enjoy the rest of the show but get offended when we say because it affects you in your community then you have to get offended for everybody else when we make fun of everything else and we're the first people to make fun of ourselves how often do i make fun of myself all the time i do all the time likewise like i'm a dipshit yeah so if you're going to make fun of one thing you got to make fun of it all or don't make fun of anything ever and that's definitely not happening and don't talk hey guy it's all love yeah i know it's i mean i get it it's it's it's I mean, we're all gone through our own shit in life.

We're all, people have good days, bad days. Somebody could say something to one day that if they said it the day before, would have no impact, but for whatever reason, you're in a situation that day or went through whatever, and so their words impacted you. I get it. Whatever. I have shit that, I mean, I read through a lot of comments every day.

And usually, like I've said this before, morning, I'm just like, ah, these dipshits. But by the night, after looking at comments, dumb comments all day by the night, I'm just like, holy shit, you idiot is what I want to type. But sometimes I don't. Sometimes. But it's hard. So yeah, I get to, you know, we're humans. We're impacted by different things. Life affects us. And we're not perfect. we're not trying to offend you though just know that we're not i mean we're trying to fin some people but not you when we say it's with all love it's a joke but it's also like when people tried to come from you for being a fat shamer when i'm like no well did i i am but not for the ones that are

actively trying to work themselves out of being fat oh oh yeah is this was this about coda yeah and Now, you know, he and I have messaged back and forth a bunch. Yeah. He wants me to come out and run a 50K with him. No, he's commenting. He's cool. So I'm like. I like him.

Yeah. It's like, you know, I don't know. I'll be the first person to own my words and get into somebody's DMs or message them and say, hey, if that offended you, I'm sorry, but here's how I meant it. And it's all good. Yeah. It's all love. So.

So here I am. in my minding my own business in my girlfriend's apartment and um took a shit okay as one does good but in the toilet yeah oh good luckily this time i made it in the toilet i flush that's good turn around to leave the uh bathroom and i've left a uh oh oh a huge poop skin oh oh oh oh in the bowl yeah oh that's okay well really

I don't know. You're not worried about that? Well, you just wait a second and flush again, right? It didn't go. Oh. Well, see, that's the problem. If the water's low, which it was the first time. Yeah, so then it's just skidding along the side.

It's sort of like etching into the porcelain. It's like a staining it. Yeah, it's like somehow a diamond cutter is like cutting glass. It's like a poop cut. So that is that what we're dealing with? Yeah, it's like a poop tattoo. So you tattooed the inside of her porcelain. Okay.

Well, oh, so tell me how did you navigate that? Okay, well. Because I saw, remember about what about Pauley or something about, or no, what was that again? What about Mary? Something about no, no, no, no. We've done this before. About member of Ben Stiller went in, then you tried to wipe with a hand. and towel and it clogged up the toilet at the back.

It was with that guy who killed himself that Philip Seymour Hoffman, he was in that. They were playing back. No, he was playing basketball. And he's like, there's one scene where Ben Stiller's like this, Philip Seymour Hoffman went up in his belly, like what on his face. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Isn't that's like something Polly. I would think. It's not the one where they're on a vacation.

No. To go see her parents. We have done this before. I can. Yeah. So, but at that one, he wiped with his, the girl he went over to see like an awesome ornamental hand towel from her grandma or something. And anyway, yeah.

So then it plugged up the toilet, overflowed. So what did you do? Yeah. So immediately, I love. looked around thinking, oh, there's going to be a scrub brush. Yeah. There's not. Was there a toothbrush in there?

Hey. Oh, okay. How about a hairbrush? You know, well, this, you know, you got to be a problem solver. So I thought, if I could get a wad of toilet paper built up at the top of the skin. Oh, and flush it down? Well, flush it first so that it's dry. and do, you know, basically you're creating another porcelain diamond cup, but with a toilet paper.

Yeah. And it worked like a charm. It did it? Nice, dude. There's a little pro tip for you guys out there. Nice. Okay. I'm going to write that one down.

Yeah, you're going to want to use that. Yeah. Good. Thank you. See? You're welcome. We're very helpful here. Yeah.

Coming up with all sorts of home improvement tips. Well, speaking of offending people, I don't know if this is, I didn't offend anybody, but I posted a video the other day of me running next to the skate park and I said, what could have been if I didn't twist my ankle in the womb? Okay. Clearly a joke, right? If you don't or you can't figure out that that's a joke, we're probably talking about you on some of those other comments.

So this guy DM me saying, oh, you know, I heard you or I saw you talked about twisting your ankle in the womb. Do you have club foot? My son has that. Oh, man. Well, yeah. I mean, we're not talking about that. We're not talking about, we're not talking about actual shit that people. This is.

Can I not make a joke? These are jokes. I don't know. Maybe I don't understand humor anymore. I guess not. Maybe we should just give it up. Does all humor have to be like generic with no cussing and no reference to any actual things in the world? How does that be?

I don't know. Because every, no matter what you say, somehow you're offending somebody. Right? How'd the. I guess. I don't know. But anyways, we got some things to talk about. Okay. One is going to be Venezuela. Yeah, so we talked about that a little bit, but I didn't know shit about it. Yeah, I've learned a little more about it as well.

Yeah, so would you learn? Well, I learned that I do think there's a certain faction of people I've talked about before behind it. because they have a decentralized banking system. Oh, what they do? They used to. They won't be more. Yeah, no. And also they have apparently, apparently, I don't think we even knew anything about this,

but apparently they have huge oil reserves. I don't think, I doubt if we even realize that at this time. I don't think so. We don't really care about that. We don't care about oil or. And you don't think it has anything to do with Taiwan and okay no okay it's about making the world a better place removing a dictator freedom freedom yeah it's freedom so it's it's not about that they have more oil than I think anywhere in the Middle East it's not about that right and this is a war on narco

terrorism right yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah because there's you know I can't think of any other organizations that have done anything just as bad. No. No. I don't, I think it was great. I think it was great. Mm-hmm. Big pharma. Yeah. Anyways. Is this the redistribution of wealth? Oh. So that's nothing. So Trump mentioned the other day how much, how many billions of dollars we've got in from, is tariffs. Have you seen any of that money? Because all I've seen is I got a tax bill. You have to pay on the 15th for over $400,000. So who are these tariffs helping? Because they're not helping tax paying Americans like me. So where the fuck is money? Where's this all this awesome? We're kicking ass with the tariffs. So it's going great. We've got $650 billion. It's like, so why the

are you raping me on taxes? And it's not actual rape. so settle down people. I just got into this argument with my brother. I mean, they'll just tax the, basically steal money from me to give to whoever the this is the argument we got into. And it was basically, it started with the smallions and the tax money there, what that's going to. And, you know, but my argument was, okay, let's say, let's say your plan is good. and we do tax more, tax the 1% more.

Why the fuck do you think all of a sudden that money would go to where it's supposed to go to? There is no system in place for the people to keep tabs on where our tax money is spent. No, we have to trust somebody. Oh, yeah. And that works out really well. Seven billion to Uganda to help this masturbation club. One-legged masturbation clinic. I don't even know what the fuck that means.

But that's basically, that's, it could be that. I wouldn't even be surprised if that was a line item. Like, oh, okay, yeah, that actually, okay, yeah, good, good, good. What else here? And they have one leg? Okay, yeah, okay, good. Gender jellyfish studies. Okay.

Oh, $5 billion. Good, good. Good. It's like they've been, forever, we just didn't know. Now we sort of know. We can't do shit about it. But they're, what drives me crazy,

they're pretending like it's a good thing. It's like, so Trump is just like, what is he? He wants us to congratulate him. I'm like, no. Okay, how about if I pay less taxes? Do you want my attention to? Why don't you pay my tax bill? God.

That's the other thing too is like, you know, the people that end up getting over by the taxes aren't the upper echelon. They're already using as many loopholes as they can. Yeah, yeah. That's why they're so rich. Yeah. I mean, it's. And I'm not, hey, I'm all for capitalism because I do, like if people say, well,

Elon Musk hasn't paid whatever, yes, he employs, I don't know how many people, millions of people probably. So he's doing his part for economy, doing all this. He's an entrepreneur. I get it. That's great. Kick an ass. If he specifically himself doesn't have to pay taxes, but he's providing a living wage for

millions of people, fine. I can deal with that. But it's like it's the CEOs of these companies who are pretty much just out for themselves. And he's a CEO and people say the same shit about him. But there is different levels to this game. Right. And it's like if I'm getting over, I got a handful of people working for me.

We're trying to bust our ass. And then we're just getting raked over the coals with taxes. It's like, come on. Come the fuck on. I mean, we're doing our best here. And it's just never enough. You need more and more. Every time I turn around, this Kotech here in Oregon is like some crazy other tax hike

on some other stupid bill nobody gives a shit about. It's like, what is going on? It's this redistribution of wealth. They take somebody who's sort of finally made it, finally making a little bit of a nest egg for themselves. Like, yep, settle down. We're going to need that. We're going to need that. You know that money you worked your whole life for?

That's actually going to need most of that. that's who it's the most. Yeah. Those people. Yeah. So that's cool. Yeah. That's, I don't know.

It is what it is, I guess. I don't know. I don't know what the hell to do about it. Yeah, exactly. I don't know. I saw a petition. A lot of people signed. They're not paying taxes this year.

See how that goes. Can't arrest us all. Yeah. But you know who they'd arrest? Me. Yeah. But yeah, good shit. Well, you haven't seen Marty.

Supreme, which is a bummer. You need to go watch it. I want to. I heard, I think Truisot, but yeah, I want to see it. Did you like it? I think he did. I'm a, I love Timothy Chalamey. Are you balls deep?

I'm balls deep in Timothy Shalame. Yeah. White boys got a little motion. I know. Well, that gets you a little closer to, it's Kindle, right? Kendall, uh, Kylie. Kylie. Yeah.

So that's a win. Well, yeah. I mean, she's in my DMs, but. I would feel bad doing that to Timmy. Yeah, no. Timmy two sticks. Timmy tummy sticks. No, he's definitely a good actor.

I think people got upset because he said he was a great actor. Did you see this? Yeah, I love that speech. Yeah. He was striving for greatness. He wants to be one of the greats. Yeah, you can't say that. I don't get that.

I know. What should be your goal? Yeah, but he's not even saying. He wasn't saying he is one of the greats. He says he wants to be. I like it. Shoot for the stars, baby. Yeah.

Granted find out. Jeez. Yeah. Whoever's running the White House Instagram is nuts. They're putting up, they did, they did put up like that. Is it Maduro or whoever? But he's like, come get me. Don't make me wait too long or something like that.

Then I got, you know, got the soundtrack to Biggie and Trump walking. I was like, this shit. goes pretty hard. It goes pretty hard. Unfortunately, it was pretty sick. But it's like, is that like, is that like, I don't want to say professional, but is it, is that what, I guess, is that how the White House is supposed to be? Is that what the leader of the free world should be?

I don't know. It seems a little weird. It seems like what I would put up. And I'm, as we've discussed. Well, we can't say that. Yeah. I'm, um, actually, you know what? Macy, let's beep out.

every cuss word, every reference to every reference to idiots. And then they'll be Oh God. Holy shit. Yeah. That

Netanyahu is going to be bursting through this door right now. Actually, leave that one in. We have to leave that whole section and they're just in a bunch of blames. God, if we left, if, okay, if she missed that, who, that's what it's dicey. Oh, yeah, that's true. You better, you better make sure that's out.

Can you read my lips? Okay. Okay. All right, we have something else we need to address. You and Greg did address it, but I figured we could talk about it a little bit again, which was, well, I think you and Greg really handled it pretty well. The, uh, PSE controversy, the speed controversy. Yeah. These guys, holy shit.

I mean, I, so I put a, that's a little preview for tomorrow. And people still, just don't get it. I don't know what, I don't know how you have to say it. I mean, this guy puts up this thing. He's like, yeah, I don't even, I didn't even really look, but I I think he killed something with the bow, so it's a speed bow, but apparently it's not a speed bow. And I did just comment, I'm like, yeah, obviously a five inch brace head bow isn't a speed, it's not for speed.

That's for just making your arrow go faster. But so somebody killed a pig with it. And like that's their sample. See? It works. Okay, okay. Guys. There's a million different factors you can consider when looking at a bow.

All of them will either help or hurt your accuracy. Okay? All of them. Pretty simple. In one way or another, it might help a little. It might hurt a lot. It might hurt a little. It might help a lot.

But they all matter. I'm just saying my whole point was, every decision I make with my bow is hunting related. And that's it, just delivering the most accurate arrow possible that's going to hit as hard as I can deliver an arrow. That's it. Anything else that affects my arrow or my bow in any other way than achieving that goal is a negative in my mind. That's all I'm talking about. So when you have the shorter your brace height goes, the more technically perfect you have to be.

The more your release, your form, everything you do hitting that trigger is impacted, the shorter that brace height goes. The taller, the more forgiving it is. So it's like there's also from five inches to, oh, so four inches to eight inches, every mark on that tape is making a difference one way or another. That's it. That's one factor. There's other factors, poundage, arrow weight, all sorts of shit, right? Arrow straightness, arrow spine. All of it has an impact one way or another.

That's it. All I'm saying is I just look at it through one lens and that's for hunting. Yeah. And you make your decisions based off of that. That's it. Which you're not allowed to do. Well, something else we need to address since, you know, it came to my attention that it got left in there. but was meat eater.

We had some... Great brand. Yes. Cutty nudge. I don't know anybody that works there. You never have. You made up a lie that said you did. I'm a big fat liar.

You're a liar. You wanted to be considered cool and have a story. So you said your friend worked there, but you don't know anybody. So there is no friend. I don't have friends. You've never had a friend. I'm not even real. You're not real, man.

Yeah. Is that the Big Lebowski? Is that from the Big Lebowski? I don't know. You're not real. What you meant. Yes. Exactly.

What I meant was, it's all love. That's it. That's it. We are constituents. Constituents, acquaintances, peers. Here's the honest to God truth.

Meat eater, in my opinion, so you're probably going to say the opposite of this. But in my opinion, they are leader in the industry. They are probably the biggest hunting brand, I would think, right now. Put out the most media. That gets the most, I mean, Netflix, tons of views on YouTube. They're a conglomerate,

a hunting conglomerate that's kicking ass top of the top of the industry you say the opposite I guess is that what I'm hearing yeah that's exactly what you're hearing okay that is what I believe okay this next segment is brought to you by Rihanna

Oh shit this is a ad now Okay go check out our app Nobody cares to work harder app Oh shit I heard that was kicking ass It is kicking ass And I heard, and this is probably a rumor, but you are having a positive impact on it. That can't be true. I made people post today because I called them out because I said, oh, I must have scared you guys away.

Usually it takes three weeks for New Year's Resolutioners to fall off and only took you guys six. And then I posted a picture of me flexing. Six days. Six days. Because everyone on there wasn't posting. But yeah, what can I say? I'm the most followed influencer on the- Holy shit.

On the platform. Nice. So, yeah. I heard us, I mean, I did look at it, but I haven't been populated it or anything or looking at too much. But Rihanna's pumped. She said, you think it's great. Yeah.

And I just don't, I've never used like that tracking or like those type of programs, but Rihanna has a lot, you know, like the food tracking system, the, what is that? The macros. Yeah. But, but the training, the, uh, just. just a community aspect of it. I guess she said it's awesome. She says you're kicking ass. I don't use the nutrients or the nutrition thing either. I hate tracking my stuff. It's probably why I look like shit. Yeah. But the rest of it, I think it's sweet. Yeah, the community aspect is

great. So go check that out. Hold on. Let me see one more thing. Oh, is just a, these are, remember what these were? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. What was it? UAP species. Yes. God, I was blank. But this is an actual alien. Yeah. Believe it or not. This is a species.

Yeah. So this is what I wanted to show you guys. Yeah. So all you naysayers and conspiracy theorists, here's a alien right here. If you can't, if you're just too dumb to figure that out, here's another one.

Oh. This one has appendages. I think that's a rare kind. Yeah. You can kind of collect them like Pokemon cards. Well, I'm wasting a lot of time. My other note on here is says trauma and living in the past and I think it was a joke, but I can't remember what the joke was.

No, I got in trouble. I got in trouble for this. Oh, you did? Yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, I got in trouble for telling people to quit crying about what happened in their five. Yes. That's, this is what it was about.

Yeah. So if then it was like somebody said, oh, so. somebody's if their parents get murdered in front of them when they're five they're supposed to it's like oh my god yeah that's exactly what i was talking about now someone who comments something like that i believe deserves to be called a yeah i mean i think it's pretty self-explanatory you guys that what we're talking about is victimhood if that happens you can't erase it i mean Yeah, and I'm not, okay, if your parents got murdered, that's not what I'm talking about. I don't know.

I mean, you could turn into Batman. Worked out good for him. Yeah. I mean, so you don't want to be Batman? I would. But no, I'm just talking about these. Yeah, I don't know. Do we have to talk about this again?

Because I've already got lit up in the comments about, I don't know. Okay. I mean, everybody's. trauma is worse than other people. I get it. Here's what it is. You can have the worst thing happened to you. Yes, it sucks. And yes, you could use that to explain your behavior and how you perceive the world for the rest of your life. What we're saying is no matter how bad it was, it happened. And you can't go back and erase that unless you meet the men in black. And you have two choices. Let it consume you.

let it ruin the rest of your life or go to therapy whatever you need to do you you only have really one choice left which is you have to own it do what you need to but it's up to you let's get on with it yeah let's get on with it i mean carrying around the past it's not going to help your future i mean it's you know you can here's what i do it's uh I just use whatever happened in the past as fuel. I'm thankful for it. I look at whatever shit that I, you know, that wasn't ideal. Everybody, I would assume everybody has had things in their life that they wish wouldn't

have happened. For sure. So I take those instances and be like, I'm going to use that as fuel or give me strength or to learn from. Turn it into a positive. In some way, it's going to be a positive. I don't care how bad. it was. I don't care how minor it was, how major it was, how devastating it was. I'm going to

figure out a way to turn it into fuel and to grow from it and learn and get better. I don't care what the fuck it is. All I'm saying is you should try that too. Why wouldn't you want to do that? Because people get power from being victims, playing the victim card their whole life. Yeah. They can't do this because of this. They can't, I would do that too, but this. So it's just excuses. I'm not, as I said in that post, I'm not a big excuse guy. I don't give a fuck. If you tell me you can't do something because of something else, stop. Yeah.

Whatever you're going to say after the because, I don't give a fuck. I agree. Where do you, how do you, where do you train for that? Life. Yeah, I mean, there's a lot of people who are, they're great at it. I want to go to the victim dojo. Yeah, I know. Black belt, baby.

I'm a black belt and victimhood. Yeah. No matter what happens, I can turn it into a. how it negatively impacted me. Ooh. And why I can't be successful because of what happened. No matter what, I can make that happen. See, that's a gift.

So that's a gift that people, it's not a gift, it's a curse, but you can make it a gift. Yeah. Turn your, whatever happened into a gift. Yes, I'm thankful because look how, look how strong you are from it. You survived it. You survived. And you're probably funny because of it. You're tough.

Yeah. You're tougher. Builds character. I mean, you're definitely tougher. So it's like, let's just kick ass. So no matter what you're thinking, think about tomorrow, you're going to give tomorrow the best you have. And then you know what? When you go to bed tomorrow and you wake up the next day, you know we should do that day?

Give your best. Let go with the excuses. Exactly. Get over the whatever. the woes me. Nobody gives a fuck. That's the whole point to, I don't have, is this hat, say nobody cares work harder? Nobody gives up.

If you're a man for sure, really nobody gives a fuck. If you're a girl or a woman, people will definitely listen to you. They'll love you. They'll hug you. If you're a guy, your dad probably doesn't give a fuck. No. I mean, so save it. Save it.

If you want to talk to somebody who's actually got time to listen to your whining, it's going to have to be a therapist. Yeah. Do you think the hat, like, nobody cares, work harder? Do you think it's said more like that where it's just like, hey, this is a fact. Nobody cares. Work harder. Or from like your perspective, like nobody cares, work harder. You know what I mean?

Do you think it's said more like as a reality for men? Yeah, I mean, I think men are just kind of used to that. Yeah. I think. Yeah. I think some men who aren't used to that get triggered by that. They're like, that's toxic. Yeah.

But and also, women are just different. I'm not talking about women. I don't know women. I don't know how. I don't know what. I'm afraid of them. I don't know what it's like to be a woman. I respect them and I'm always blown away by women.

I'm a guy. I have been around guys from, from football. as a kid up through hunting, up through work, you know, like I said, leading men. I know men, that's it. Yeah. I don't. And all I know, men do not give a fuck to hear about another man's excuse. It doesn't have.

It doesn't. They might listen, but they don't care. No. Because they got their own shit to deal with. Everybody's got their own shit to deal with. I don't have time to fix everybody's problems. Yeah. And if you're a man, fix it.

Fix it yourself. Yep. Yeah. Well, speaking of women listening to men, we have a lot of women that listen to us. I think I said this on the Q&A. Yeah. I love the messages I get from, well, I'm not talking about the crazy messages. I'm not saying don't send them, but.

I can filter those out for you. I don't get many of those. There are some badass women out there that I love selling. So I don't know what you were going to say, but like there's, did you see that ballet girl I put up the other day? Oh yeah. Doing the workout. Holy shit. On her toe on that, whatever, that bosa ball.

Yeah. And then, oh, no, no, that was a, so that was a ballet. But the other girl who, who was doing the workouts like what I've been here on the ball. Yeah. Beasts. Beasts. Anyway, so what was your, anyway, the point is, is I get a lot of messages and feedback from women who are. crushing it. Yeah. I love I love to see that. I love I mean women are badass but yeah we

appreciate all the followers we have there. I think I'm just surprised by it because I feel like you know a general consensus of the you know genre of talking on this podcast is like locker room talk. Oh yeah definitely I mean we're we're pretty close to the old Trump grabbing by the we're not there but somebody could say we're We're not far off. But I want to, so there's this one girl I freaking really like, she's, she tags me all the time. She's a badass. I think Maddie fit or something like that.

Maddie G. Fit. Is that what it is? Yeah. Yeah. She's a stud. Yeah, I don't remember the ballet. I want people to follow the ballet girl because she's a machine. Kylie Shea X-O.

Oh, X-O. But this is the one. Yeah. Look at her foot. Look at her standing on her damn. Anyway, she's a stud. And then the other one was Femm somebody, that workout girl. Yeah.

She's just a beast. There are some workouts in there. I don't understand how she was even doing. Yeah. I mean, just an athlete. But yeah, I love those badass women for sure. Yeah. Well, that's it on my list.

that's how you got yeah good well i don't think we said anything too crazy today no except for every other word what do we got coming up jeff geoffrey oh yeah i'm getting my ass kicked truitt so here's where i'm well this is probably out of there by now but uh we got truitt coming we got Jeff Browning oh yeah there you go and miss Rachel Intrican on the oh and how did I forget the fittest man in the world so that's my next two weeks see it says right here what does that say mm I'm yeah yeah well you got a a Truett a Jeff Browning a Jason and Hooper or something like that.

And then Rachel, oh, in two weeks? All in two weeks. Yeah, anyway, should be fun. So stay tuned for that. We got some good shit coming.

And Macy, good luck with the editing on this one. Yeah, sorry, Macy. Going to be rough. Welcome to 2026. Yeah. First word. First word start.

We should have known this one was going to be back. We could have guessed. All right. Keep hammering. Bye. One of the hardest parts of hunting is glassing big country to find animals you know are there. That's why I run Sig Sauer Zulu imaging stabilizing binoculars when I'm covering a lot of ground and need to see everything.

These binoes are a complete game changer. After long climbs, when your heart rates up and your hands aren't steady, shaky glass makes it hard to stay locked in. With image stabilization, everything settles down. You can slow the process, really pick up. pick apart the country and catch movement you normally miss. I found more animals and saved a ton of time because of these binos. I actually just talked about how impressive this technology is on the most recent episode of the Joe Rogan experience.

Once you use stabilized glass, it's hard to go back. It gives you a real advantage when you're hunting big open terrain. And here's the rare part. Optics companies almost never offer discounts, but Sig is giving listeners of this podcast 10% off. Just use code cam at checkout. So if you're serious about glassing and want the same edge I've had the past couple of seasons, head to sigsour.com. Grab a pair of Zulu binos and use code cam for 10% off. Sig sour Zulu binoculars. See more, miss less, keep hammering. When you're deep in the backcountry and everything depends on your gear, your knife can't be the

weak link. That's why I teamed up with Montana Knife Company to build. that keep hammering packout. What matters to me in all things is performance. The packout is built to do one thing really well. Break down animals efficiently. The blade shape gives you control and skinning. The steel holds an edge and it's light enough that you don't think twice about carrying it all day. When you're tired, cold, and working on an animal miles from the truck, simple and reliable are everything. Montana Knife Company is American made and that matters to me. I know Josh Smith personally and he doesn't cut corners. He cares about quality, doing things right way, and about building products here in the USA that actually perform in the field. That's why I trust

this knife. If you want to check it out, head to montanaginicompancom. And right now, podcast listeners get 10% off any knife with code cam 10. C-A-M-10. To keep hammering pack out, built for the backcountry, built to work. We've got a limited all-black packout dropping January 8th. Quantities are tight and they won't last. Get yours now.
