All right, guys, you've heard me say it before, but straight up, prize picks is the best place to win cash while watching sports. I know a lot of you guys are using the prize picks app like me. I literally can't watch a sporting event without walking into prize picks at the same time. It just makes watching the game so much more fun. I'm pumped up for UFC this weekend. Islam McAchev versus JDM, the whole card stacked. We're going to be putting together a lineup for UFC for prize picks. So stay tuned to that.

We'll probably post it on our Instagram. Thank you to prize picks because they have a brand new feature called Early Pay. Let's say you have a lineup, everything's hitting, you guys know that feeling, but then you have one square left that you're just not really feeling, now they have early payouts, and you can swipe and take control of your lineup and get an early payout. If you've never tried the prize picks out for some reason, code note, plug in that code, put in $5 and you'll get $50 for free. Take advantage of code no, that's for you guys. Also, you guys can follow me on prize picks now at Kyle. then you can see exactly what I'm firing on. Download the Christmix app.

Use code nilk. Take advantage of that early payout feature. It's a game changer. Let's get into the pod. All right, yo, what's good? What's up? I haven't seen you guys in a month and a half. No, it's been like 30 days.

30 days? I was in L.A. with you. We did Skip Bayless. Oh, that's right. And then I told you to come to Vegas. You don't have a Vegas guy anymore. No, not really. It's not a trip.

It's just like. Vegas is... Vegas isn't good for me. Vegas is just so hit or miss now If you lose money, it's a terrible trip So I wonder how Vegas was back in the day Probably pretty similar You think?

Yeah, I don't think. No, I think Vegas was like Gambling hookers No, like back in like the Tiger Woods days and shit I think it's a little bit better or no Yes, because I don't think Like Miami was just hot Vegas was the place you went to Two party with you like the Frank Sinatra days

Like shit like that Like Vegas is a great time too But in terms of girls All the hot again all the hot girls are bottle girls right yeah so you kind of got you gotta hit the lottery with like a good group of bachelorette that's the only way it's the only way

in Vegas right the only way but sometimes you might go there and it's just like fuck there's a lot of there's a lot of fat chicks here Arizona used to be lit but now Arizona's the same what's wrong with taking down a fatty every once in a while a fat shit there's this new term called the torta what the torta is no like a big

Latino woman it's like Gabe as a chick or like Gracie Bond big yeah That big? Well, she's not, like, really... She's not fat. She's got a just big ass. Yeah.

But, no, I mean, I'll take one down. It's been said, it's true. It's like, those are the ones that you know, like, they're down. And it's like, it's going to be fun, but they're just not going to be that hot. I'm not trying to be cocky. I just haven't hooked up with a fat chick. Oh, here we go. Here we go.

Here we go. Not recently, honestly. It's been a while. I'm not even chirping you. Like, I just... I've actually never seen you with a fat chick. I will tell you, like, last weekend, I swear to God, why this chick walked into a body shop. and I thought it was Leah Haldon.

Halloween weekend? Yeah. Took her home, woke up the next day. Not Leo Alton or anything close. Really? Yeah, it was... Why did you think she was Leah Haldon? Like, what was 3 a.m.?

Fucking... Halloween lighting. Halloween lighting, yeah, Halloween lighting. How is Halloween in L.A.? Fucking, it's absolutely insane. It's insane. Who was at the party? You went to a pretty cool party, no?

I went to three, so Ryan Palano had his... I think he does an annual one. That one... Well, so the... The biggest problem now with L.A. parties is that you walk in and there's fucking five or six kids streaming it. So you're walking around. There's cameras everywhere. Like, they want to get you in there. And not only is their cameras, because there's always vloggers in L.A. Yeah. But now it's live.

Live. So they want to get you in that gotcha moment. Yeah. So I tried to just stay away from that because I'm trying to have a good time and I'm obviously intoxicated. So I don't want to slip up or do anything stupid. But it kind of kills the vibe a little bit and makes it way less way. Why, how many, what streamers are at the parties? Everybody. Like, there's kids there that are, like, just starting. There's nobody's, too.

Yeah, there's no limitation. It's just, if you stream, you're in there, you're good. Like, it doesn't even benefit you to be on their stream. No, you could have, you could be starting out and have 10 viewers and they're in there. Like, it's like, still like that. So it just, it kind of kills the vibe. But then after that, I went to, um, this dude named Kareem had a big party and, like, it's fucking lit.

Taiga performed, gone underperformed. Somehow I was right next to him. Tiger's always performing on Halloween But it was fucking sick And somehow I was up there For a little bit before They asked me who I was And then remove me from the stage

With physical aggression, honestly And honestly I might follow up with a lawsuit About that Tiger security Just some dude was like Yo, what are you doing up here? It's getting pretty full And I was like, yeah, no, I'm with them

And then he's like, no, you're not And then he just kind of pushed me off to the side But I still vibe from right in front of the stage were you up there for rack city or anything i didn't make rack city oh yeah i only got faded faded's a banger though yeah taiga had fucking tracks back in the day faded but like they still hit today say oh and aos are going yeah i used to love like hearing tagga come in on a verse with like the ha yeah he used to fire me up when i was in high school yeah it fires you up yeah i'm still cool though no i yeah he's a legend yeah so just the

Kylie Jenner thing just kind of like it changed the course of his career, right? Yeah, for sure. But I mean, also in L.A., I know it's probably similar here, but fucking changed the course of my career, too, probably. Girls are just... Probably way worse. The women are just, like, insane there.

Every girl from every city flies in there to go out there, so... Who else was there? You said Gunner performed, Central C.? Central C had a... Chopped it up with Central for a little bit. The guy robbed your bird for sure. He did. Yeah, I'll actually tell you There's this legendary

Central C's though Just like one guy It's like Fuck like You just don't want them around you I'll tell you what happened There's this legendary chick in LA I love you

Straight up I actually offer her to come here with me She didn't respond But we were at Delilah For the Moxie management party Thrown by your boy Slater And Mansell was like Yeah we should hit Body Shop

Let's do it And I was like All right let's go Which is a strip club? Yeah I was like dude, so-and-so is calling me. He's like, what?

And I'm like, yeah. And he goes, yells at the Uber, Flippy you, we were going back to get her. Wait, who said that? Mr. Manzell. Oh. Yeah, he was like, we're going back to get her. So we fucking are already there.

We go all the way back to get her because she's really like that. And then we're up. Really? Yeah. She's hot. No, she's a queen goddess. And then we're fucking upstairs. And we're sitting in the one of,

there's two private rooms party shop there's just one on the left one on the right and we're in the one on the left and then central's in the one on the right and johnny's doing his thing in the corner and i'm kind of just like chilling and then she tells me like uh i hey i got to go to the bathroom i'll be right back and i was like all right no worries and then johnny steps down and he's like yo what's up where'd she go and i was like oh she's just going to the bathroom and he goes you idiot you fucking idiot like lost his mind i was like dude what he's like she's not going to the bathroom She's just with Central.

And it turns out she was in Central's room, having a good time. So much more money being thrown in there and shit. Yeah. You guys were blaming the ATM not working or something. My credit card was working the ATM here. It was raining a little bit. Yeah. But like for 15 minutes.

So she just didn't come back? She came back and like said bye like two or three hours later. Yeah, it was defeat at its max. What about, how was it for you guys? Halloween was fun, man. Halloween's always a good time. You guys are kind of lame though, and I'm going to make this a really big thing. because, like, you're...

What did you dress up as? I know what you're going to say. I was a fucking pirate. I didn't see one photo of you. Because my fit wasn't hard, but I was a pirate. I wore an earring. I had a fucking... You probably look...

Sassy ass sword. What happened to your beard? She went to Central Seat. So continue with your point. Okay. Okay, so I ordered a hot dog costume. So I was going to be a hot dog and then go shades on. That would have been more funny.

It's funny, but then I was thinking, like, no chick's gonna... No one's gonna be, like, want to see getting into an Uber with the guy dress as a hot dog that's just not gonna happen yeah it's like i that's just not happening and even if you're like dancing with a girl and you're the hot dog like unless you're really confident and feeling yourself you're fucked so i'm one of those guys that likes to be the funny the funny and enjoy Halloween and you guys have to do i think hot dog's funnier than a pirate though yeah well i want i got a pirate remotely like it's not that funny well i went i went

shirtless with a vast pirate oh yeah you shouldn't went shirtless dude i'm my i fucking hit arms that day like I was really looked people were stepping clear when I was walking through the party and uh I had an eye patch an earring in a sword and then yeah no it didn't work out for me but I just don't like be be the funny guy on Halloween don't be one of these guys that has to like be a lifeguard zombie or a zombie in a suit I went I went the scary route dude you're no you went to you want the I still want to look good but I'm going to put a little face paint on so I fit the part it's like dude have some fun with it. Have some fucking personality. It depends what your goal is on Halloween, right? Like your goal is obviously to like get your bird rod by Central Sea. Like that's personally not my goal on Halloween. I think Halloween you go two angles. You either have to go funny or you go like, you know, a little scary and like you look good. Yeah. So I chose the scary look good route. I don't find pirate. It's not like a funny costume. It's like a typical costume. I think you would have had better odds with hot dog. I love. You would have got more laughs. I think you would have suited hot dog a lot more. I know. She still would have went with bench but like yeah yeah no but uh Halloween's good I'm glad it's over we had a lot of birds in that bus man it's honestly my favorite time of the year like for for going out we had a great always have everyone's positive vibes it's a great time not like some bullshit on new years or everyone's stressed out you're just there to years is yeah see if you compare Halloween to New Year's Halloween is a way better party yeah New Year's is always

it's just amateur night yeah because everyone wants to go to the same shit and you fucking pain in the ass to get tickets are expensive for wherever Whatever you're going to it, it's always shit and busy. So, I do want to address the fact that, I don't know, one of your good friends was in a holding cell in a foreign communist country and not anyone in this room besides Gabe reached out to me, hey, bro, are you okay? You're good?

So, I don't know if you guys were busy. Well, we're not actually really friends, but I'm fucking in a holding cell with five other guys. Plus, I also didn't expect you to know. Oh, you were on a run? Yeah. Oh, you're on a run? Oh, then, well, then, of course, why would you hit me? I wasn't expecting. No, I did. But dude, we have no control in China. No, but you could have

said, hey, bro, are you alive? You're, I was texting you? I think your text was, I have no words, which is pretty much saying, like, I don't know what to say. I'm going to move on with me. I didn't. You got denied from China. I have absolutely no poll there. Yeah. The guys, the guys that we were with, we asked them, and they said, yo, there's nothing we could do. Yeah. So that's why I said. I was like, dude, I don't know what to say. I'm sorry. Like, this actually sucks. I think I know what it was, is that I was posting, they went and looked at my IG. You never told us that until now. Well, I was posting stories about how I'd have the biggest dick in China.

They didn't look at your IG, did they? They did. They did. Is that fact? No. Bro, I was sitting in the holding cell, and they took my password, and they said, what do you do for work? And I told them. And so they looked it up, and they saw my stories of like, which I still stand on that, that I'd have the biggest dick in China while I was there.

and a couple guys got kind of offended. They took me into the back room, pulled out a measuring tape, and it turns out I had the biggest thing, and they said, we cannot allow a guy like you in our country. You were making, like, we have a group chat, and like, you were just, like, constantly making dick jokes to the point where it was like, it was a bit, right?

Like, what's going on? It was, it wasn't a bit much. No, it wasn't fun. I think even, Jesse, he was like, yo, is he, like being, like, is he being serious? Or like, I mean, dude, The sleepy pill hit me on the plane And like you get a little

You know what I mean And no but he started off with that Like right away It's pretty funny to me Like that's a stereotype that everyone jokes about Right away Like when you see Leslie chow on the hangover Leslie chel on the hangover

It's like fucking whatever So you have jokes No yeah So I know I mean it was weird I didn't get in I don't know It's fucked I think if you came to Japan with us You would have got in

There's no Yeah I had something Because it would have been like You would have been one out of 15 I think you were just like One single white guy And they're like I was so excited

if you walking in there. I will tell you, like, they were pretty cool about it because they let me go and hang out in the business lounge and, bro. You just popped another Zan too and just,

yeah, I took another Zan and, like, hit the food, the food in the fucking airport was so fucking fire. Well, you know, Jesse got stopped on the way in.

Oh, really? So when you go into China, they have, like, you're walking through the customs, like, you know where you show your passport? They have a fucking thermometer

to take your, that's just like scanning we thought it was for the eyes. I've seen, Jesse was wearing a fucking beanie on the plane His fault He shouldn't be wearing a beanie on a plane It's classic

Yeah he's classic Waring a beanie on a plane And he gets flagged for having a high temperature Yeah So they bring him to the back and shit And they like Checked him Took his temperature and shit

And like he didn't have a fever But like if he did I don't know where the fuck he would have gone But what I was saying is that I was just fucking They took me to business on It's treated me great food was great And then I had like a little room With a bed

I don't know if you guys saw me The first thing you do When you get locked up is you I hit I dead ass I think I hit 600 pushups over 10 hours I did bro and I just killed time with pushups read a little bit wrote some lyrics and then that was it I dipped so yeah but I will I do want to ask because I did I've told I told you from the beginning I really go to China yeah I really wanted to go to China and I was surprised you wanted to go to China because I've always been I kind of said I would never go to China for what reason I just didn't know about the political

climate there and like I just didn't know how much they they're so smart there what I realized too and it's like in what way or low? I don't know I just didn't know how much fucking AI technology they have there to when you go through the border and it's like does my name pop up and it shows that like we've done shit with Trump and like I just I just didn't know and like the thing with countries like that is like you once you get locked up bro and like even like you like that's what I realized when you

like didn't get let in, I told all the guys, I was like, dude, this gotta take this as a sign that like, you can't do anything here. Like, if you fuck up and you go to jail, like, we don't have any power here. Okay, but so from the outside looking in, because you guys were posting stories and like, you guys were partying. That's why I initially didn't want to go to China. But then when I got there, my conclusion about China is this. You can't do one thing there. You cannot talk about the government. That's it. don't talk about what the fuck president she's doing and you'll have a great ass fucking time there and that's what we did

and people told us there they was like listen all you can't do here just don't talk about the fucking government I have I have nothing to do with fucking China Chinese politics and shit I'm fucking Canadian and I shouldn't even be talking about US politics right I don't need to talk about fucking Chinese politics but that's the one thing people just don't do there

yeah it's like saying fucking Voldemort in a way in Harry Potter where it's like if you even ask them about it they're like dude like no and what they say is like I guess the rules like if you're not qualified to talk about politics

you shouldn't be talking about it that's that's what people there kind of told us so I don't know if that means like you need to do a certain amount of schooling or study political science or I don't know what that meant but that's what they told us in terms of like freedom and stuff

are most of people you guys say now with like working corporate jobs or like yeah i mean that's what i don't really understand still and i'm probably going to sound like a dumbass but what else is new like um i don't know what type of communism like it is or like because it's not like everyone's equal right like we were with fucking rich people the whole time and you know like there is there's definitely like rich people not everyone's equal so i guess yeah how was the food food It was amazing. Yeah, see, that's what I want to try, bro. Yeah, I personally liked, I liked China better than Japan.

Yeah, that's what I figured. Well, it's actually crazy. I hear great things about Japan. Japan's sick, too. Japan's sick, too, but I think not a lot of people have been to China, too, right? More people have been to. And then what, what I learned about China is, I don't know, I feel like it's, it's like America, but just fucking Chinese. If that makes sense.

That sounds fucking dope. The cities are fucking magnificent. Like, did you see the skyline we posted of that one city? Yeah. Chong Ching. Yeah. Dude, that skyline is fucking incredible. It's huge out there.

It's fucking insane. Like, there's nothing like that in the U.S. I don't want to give up too much, because I know you guys have a video or two coming out. But, yeah. Okay, so when you pull up to the Great Wall, was it a letdown? Was it sick?

Not a Leddown. That's what we said about Great Wall is there is some of those tourism things that it's like the typical tourist shit that you do, that like you get there and it's like a letdown. And that's kind of what we thought about the Great Wall, but it was it was opposite it was fucking sick like and what was so cool about it just

it was just like some sort of energy and it was beautiful like we went there like right during sunset it was beautiful day you know what year that fucker was built 300 to 600 years ago yeah is that not bizarre you think it would be older right

yeah yeah but it's also new could you run it or no I should have but there's a lot of stairs and shit what are people like doing on there they just kind of chilling and taking photos walking around taking photos it really is just like yeah when you get there you're kind of like oh whoa this like this is crazy yeah you look up and it's just it keeps going

especially because you're walking up going down and then when you walk up you see like the skyline yeah or you see the view yeah it's just gorgeous but people love trump there well i would assume so that was like our ticket well i didn't know i mean there you see that you see this whole tariff war and it's like but it seems like him and i know pretty well yeah but you go there and like you know the guys that we were hanging with everything they did to intro us is they would show like obviously everything we did with Trump to people.

And people love Trump there. Which I found interesting because that was my whole kind of hold back to the one thing that I don't get is like I could name multiple cities like I could name Shanghai, Hong Kong, Beijing. What's like the difference between them? That's what I learned. So Hong Kong is is not mainland China.

Did you know that? Like it's technically we have to go through a border it's it's a completely different it's a completely different type of culture same government though no oh thank you have to go through a whole completely like border check like passport like fill out your immigration form like more chill there or yeah so hong kong's more like americanized more english speaking i we only went there for one night but i would love to go back to hong kong too we'd have a fucking blast there bro and everyone's fans of us because so that's the other thing that's in China I actually realized was a misconception too is if you go there as a tourist all our social media worked the entire time if you go as a tourist like yeah like on your own phone yeah like I just have a travel plan like I didn't have once like my Instagram

but that kind of makes sense oh I mean all I heard was social media was banned there right well for their their if you have a Chinese cellular line yeah yeah but it's not like kind of people make it seem like North Korea where it's like, like they really can't access it, you know what I'm saying? But I was Macau.

We didn't go. You guys didn't go to Macau? No, we didn't go. Oh, because there was not much content unless we're going to film gambling. We were like, we were partying a lot there.

Yeah. But Beijing's more like, that's a lot of cops in Beijing. So that's the other thing about China too is like what I learned about China. Can you get away with shit there? I feel like, no, no, no.

I mean like with like a quick like misdemeanor. So one thing I learned about. about China. I don't know how the law works if you do commit a crime and how to, but you cannot move in China. Like if you were to commit a crime and like try to get away, you're not going fucking anywhere. Like there is cameras everywhere. Our friends told us that if there's a fight on the cameras, like AI will like detect it or people are watching. I don't know, but cops will show up in 30 seconds without someone calling. Everywhere you go, there's cameras, you get

scanned by a metal detector. Oh yeah, going on the train. Going on a train is like going through an airport. Like your bags are going through everything. Even the subway. Like think of the New York subway. You're getting fucking metal detector down. Your bags are going through shit.

Like it's actually impossible to like you're not. And there's just coffee. It's set up to be like yeah, like yo, follow the rules or you're like I feel like you're kind of fucked. You're done, yeah. It's also, like, the greatest place where it's like, I don't know.

All right, guys, let's talk some crypto. Anything I'm doing in the crypto space, I'm doing through MoonPay. What's sick about MoonPay is you obviously don't need to buy a whole Bitcoin. You can get started with as little as $20. And because MoonPay's been around now for over six years, they are literally taking over the entire crypto space and forming some crazy partnerships. A new one they have is with Bitcoin.com. You've obviously heard of MoonPay by now, but you probably didn't realize how you,

their app is, it's a full-on crypto app where you can buy, sell, store, and learn all in one place. Whether you're figuring out what Bitcoin actually is or you're ready to start building a portfolio, Bitcoin.com makes it super approachable. Pair Bitcoin.com with Moonpay and you're ready to take your first step in the crypto space or make your next move. Also, guys, every single Monday, we do something called Moon Pay Mondays on our Instagram, Nope Boys. We give away a thousand in Bitcoin, no strings attached. All you got to do is DM us on Instagram at, Nelk Boys, your MoonPay wallet address.

If you're looking to get into crypto for the first time, or if you want to win $1,000 in Bitcoin, every single Monday, download the MoonPay app, best crypto app in the game. Let's get back on the park. What about, like, geography? Like, is it beautiful there? Yeah.

I thought it was beautiful. I mean, Great Wall was beautiful. The skylines were crazy. The cities were just like... So many buildings. Like New York City where you walk around and like there's like bodegas and like... You kind of realize like... Like, you kind of do realize.

what people say. Like China is like, they're fucking coming bro. They're coming. They are. After seeing the robots. After seeing the China fit. Oh, dude. Tell me about those robots. Oh, God, dude. You know, I bought one. No. Is it here? It's coming soon. How much was it? Just drop it. I know you got money. 50? Do they have like

an entry level one? 70K. Is that the, you probably got like the max. Do they have an entry level? Well, I'm obviously going to get the best robot they can like have at the time. So we're going to have a full sun robot that's gonna be bro the dude was doing like what what can they dude he was doing bruce they can do they can do karate kung fu they can

yeah dance and they speak shake your hand uh they'll be able to speak eventually i think right now they only speak chinese damn so it could be like be like your homie like if you hung over you can watch a movie with it yeah like we're gonna name it we gotta come i want to ask the fans help for naming it but we got a robot do they is there

can i get like a five how much how much like we're gonna get so many chicks that's gonna be great for content wait how I don't, how can I get one? I'm down and I'll splash on that. That's a way bigger flex than a rule. No, only you can have one? Yeah.

Why is that? I actually had to talk the guy into it. They don't sell them or? No. Dude, I want a robot bad. Yeah. This might be the most uneducated statement of all time too, but like, I don't know. There's, I guess there's different types of communism.

Like, you got Venezuela communism where like everyone's fucking poor and they're like, you know, they hate the leader there, Maduro. From what I learned, I mean, I guess they can't really speak the truth. but like people actually genuinely seem to like president she yeah like i would actually ask people and like i'm like what do like people actually think of i'm like i'm not gonna tell or say it on well dude maybe it's not everyone's like dude people really like them here think about it like this too maybe it's not a bad such a bad thing that they can't have access to all these social media apps they probably have their heads on a little more clear than people and i go i know freedom

of speech is like the most important thing and it's like used to protect us but it's like freedom of speech and politics like look what's going on here in the u.s look out how divided we are like it fucks up every Thanksgiving dinner like yeah you know what I'm saying like yeah I agree you got the liberal did you notice that at all? They don't talk about it I ask people I'm like yo like what's the religion like here

they're like ha CCP what's that mean communist Chinese party it's crazy bro is it is interesting it's fucked to think of because it's like if it was bad then people can't speak about shit but

I don't know. It's so safe there. I didn't feel scared in China, like one bit. I was only scared of getting arrested, obviously. But, like, in terms of the people there... What do they think of you out there? Oh. They love...

They loved it. People say they like white people, but they like black people more. As far as, like, talking to chicks and stuff, yeah, it was... So, what, you were a spitting game? No, I was just dope. They were attracted to, like... They can't speak English, can they? Or trainer Caleb, too, is like... Yeah, like, they were a...

Even darker than swim. They don't really see like black people there, right? Yeah. So they're asking for photos. Yeah, ask for photos. They love foreigners. They love it. Did anything extra curricular go down or are we not allowed to?

Karaoke nights for so. Karaoke nights. K-Town in L.A. Bro, we got to do more karaoke. Be better, bro. Oh, I've never been in L.A. though. It's so fun, dude. So they're obsessed with karaoke there, but it's not like, like, I've said it on the Japan video.

It's not when you're like drunk, blowed out at the end of a night and you have nothing else to do. and like that one girl wants to go do karaoke This is like a set up thing Like you plan it You book a private room It's like This is gonna go back to my Halloween thing You didn't get on the mic

I did What'd you sing? Was that not on the mic? I was on the mic a lot What'd you sing? Love yourself by J.E was going to go to Yeah That and six men

Did you do six men or six God I did some Drake I think me and Celine did Do we do nonstop? Which one do we do? No, we did make me proud Yeah Yeah

Yeah that was the uh That was the second time Yeah You tear up at the end and this is my fucking dog, what? Do you know what I realized, too? Drake watch was ineffective. Of course. They don't know Drake out there.

Yeah, that makes sense. They only know Justin Bieber and Taylor Swift. I did pull a couple J.B. TikToks like me, like him at the table of shit. How'd that work? Worked like a charm. Nice. What about, Saleem? You get on the mic or no?

I did. Yeah. Everyone got, everyone did. Yeah, it was fun, bro. You definitely did some flowrida. I sang, oh, whistle. Did people? little right at people leave the room when you got on the mic or no i was so into it that oh that's good

no they take it like really seriously yeah like they get on the mic and they're like they're like belting it out like yeah no like eyes closed like just like really but they do like a k-pop type shit no they like american songs oh nice yeah it was a good time bro great tarioki nights are like it's crazy why do you guys got to do those more i'm ready for a u s karaoke night we're so Like, that was fun. The way they do it. What else is crazy about China? No, I just found it's interesting, like, how safe it is, too, right?

And I guess there's always that borderline where it's like, you know, when does it become too, like, secure where you're giving your freedom away to? But I don't know. That's why it makes me even, it's so crazy, like the mom, Donnie or whatever the fuck. Yeah. I don't know about nationalized grocery stores or, I don't know, the economics of that. I mean, it's probably sounds weird, but I don't, I'm not a fucking. economist, I'm not like, I don't know how that works, but when you talk about defunding

the police, fucking stupid, then you go to a country like, yeah, look at it. I come back here and I'm like walking to the fucking gym in Miami and like fucking like, fucking like homeless drug addicts, like fucking screaming at me. Yeah, well, he asked about my happy dad hat. He was like screaming. I thought he was going to stab me. I had to give him my fucking hat. Trust me, New York's worst, too. I gave him my hat. Yeah. Go, what's that hat? And I actually have like fucking 20 in my closet. So, like, he looked like he was having a shitty day. So I was like, you want it? He said, And then it, like, made his day. Yeah.

Also, you think robbery? It's like, fuck. Like, that's the thing. It's like, well, he's, I'm sorry. But defund the police. And then you think government-owned grocery stores, that's just going to encourage more fucking theft from there. You know what I'm saying?

Like, I don't, defund the police is the craziest thing. Yeah, that's crazy to say. Like, you even see what Trump's doing with, like, when they do bring in more law enforcement to, like, Washington, and it's fucking common sense. Yeah.

Like, who the fuck are you going to call once, when you have a fucking problem? Yeah. And someone breaks into your house. Who the, fuck are you calling? You're calling the cops. Exactly. Like, what a fucking dumb, idiotic thing to fucking say, defund

the police. Yeah, it is. It's just I don't understand that. I'll shop at a fucking national grocery store or whatever, like, I'll, you know, I'll go buy fucking bananas there, but defund the police. Like, they're there to help you. Yeah, like, but yeah, China was China was cool. I think people

love the Japan video. Yeah. The international shit, I mean, it does get a little bit tiring, but what I kind of realized, too, is the most tiring part is It's just the long flight there. So I think I like what we did this trip where, you know, we flew fucking 18 hours or whatever it was. And then we went there and we got, we got two videos at least. At least.

Going into next year, if we do Africa or we do the Middle East or any other like areas, I think we should just like, if it's a fucking 15 hour flight, you might as well go and like go to three countries in Africa and come back with like. like three videos. Yeah. Is that the end of the day? Like, like we were saying when we were in Asia, like we kind of didn't want to leave.

I know Gabe was pushing to stay there as long as possible. Yeah. I was honestly like... That was our longest trip. That was our longest trip. And it was fun. It was great.

Yeah. But I think, I think going into next year we'll probably, I think we're going to go super international. I honestly kind of want to make a checklist of countries

that we're trying to go. Africa's got to be next, I think. Africa's sick. Fucked. Because of continent. Listen, I know this sounds crazy,

but... One of the top comments was, was, one of the top comments was Nelphites to come to Afghanistan. Why not? Actually, actually, no guy. Why not? It'd be great to just go see. I mean, like China, we never would have thought we would have gone to China. No, I know.

So, I think that's what we're going to try to tee up for next year. People love the international shit. I think it's like, and it's so cool to show the misconceptions. I think people are going to really like the China video, too. We met a cool kid, Leo, who was like our tour guide. and we like really bonded with them I miss Leo meet people you like never forget too

like you kind of like stay friends with them right even when we went to India I think we got to do you know what we need to do is we need to I think this should be a new thing is on these trips like how Kaisana found like a ray

and like found like a total we find a fucking hilarious guy out there and we just bring him back yeah do you agree with that like that'd be pretty sick that's kind of what happened with this kid yeah so uh you're a guy

Justin Trudeau proud Canadian right here sometimes people forget I don't think that's Dodgers Blue Jays sorry about your Blue Jays you didn't watch one game did you're not even from L.A you didn't watch one game did you much from me

The Rockies? The Dodgers bro I live in L.A. Yeah Don't switch up on your teams but I'm sorry your team lost I'm kind of used to it like it's kind of crazy like this Diplo went on a podcast and talked about how he was dating I don't know if it was all the same time

of Katie Perry and Trudeau at the same time. Was he being serious about that? He seemed pretty serious, but I don't know if it was at the same time or one at a time, but like, it's a fuck, like, what the fuck is going on? Oh, they're both? It was like a three-way relationship from what I believe. That's a crazy three. I don't know if we get fact-checked on that, but...

I don't know if Trudeau's just a B-D or he's fucking Hong or something, but like, I don't, or does Katie... Why for Diplo? No, for Trudeau. Like, does she, or maybe does she think it's a flag? to like y'all I'm dating like a former prime minister like I don't know if she knows how hated he is in Canada she probably just agrees with a lot of his shit he's the most hated guy yeah what like I don't know if she thinks it's a flex like you think that if you think

diplo knows he's hated or you think diplos just gets fucking freaky with it diplo's always doing sexual shit yeah we got a party with him I met I saw him in I think Vegas he won he's down to come on the pod should we party with him or maybe maybe I mean you'll you'll you'll get down with whatever he's doing yeah Whatever. I saw this today. Obviously, I followed the NBA scandal a lot, but what's going on with the UFC? You know what's funny about that guy?

I don't know who'd released that. But, you know, do you see the guy who is being accused, Isaac Dolgarian? I didn't see it, no. So that's the guy. Okay. We were supposed to sign him to be the first full send fighter ever. So when we first kind of started being friends with Dana, he had a great idea. He's like, yeah, you guys should have a full son fighter.

someone that like kind of joins your guys crew in a way like becomes a knelt boy in a way that like also you guys are promoting you guys like help get him deals like just like what we do for everyone else and so like yeah great idea so we go do a show looking for a fight

we choose the guy um Isaac Dolgarian and then like when it came to like doing the deal like he just like didn't want to like do it I think we just wanted like 15%

like completely standard like shit and he's like oh like I already have a manager and shit and we're like oh like I thought we were kind of like gonna like do this for you and shit like this is what we do right you know what I'm saying and then like you know if you're signing the bar stool or whatever so he's just like

yo I'm kind of already like I have my own person and shit and so we're like okay well like if you don't see the value and like you know and then and then after he went on to talk shit and say like oh like they never fucking sign me and oh my god yeah this is the fucker i was there

yeah he had cornrows and he was like shorter dude yeah okay yeah this was the fucker oh my god so thank god we didn't fucking sign his ass because now he's fucking what are the accusations fights i don't know i guess the betting line changed last minute um i don't know i don't really know too much

my thing with the ufc is that if you are throwing fights you're not gonna last in the ufc very long i mean maybe he just knew he was a bum and he's like fuck it like whatever they're doing i guess he gets offered X amount of money up front like yo throw the fight yeah and then it's like he probably thinks of it he's like fuck how much how many fights am i going to have to do to make this type of money i mean this is a hot take but i swear like the one time where i've been and i don't want to take

anything away from jake but the one time i've been almost certain is ben ascran i think ben ashran's like there's zero chance to beat this guy i'm going to take one punch lose put my whole purse on me to lose so you don't think jake was in on that though no i don't think jake was in on it i think ben was like, dude, I'm not going to fucking win. I don't give a fuck if I win. I'll take one punch, go down, and I'll fucking walk out of here two, three times richer than I would have been either way. I mean, I

think faking a knockout is a little more fucked. Like, Ben Ascreen got knocked out. But you just take a punch. No. I guess you just drop your hands. Yeah. Like, this guy got tapped out. Like, what I do with deply? Like, that's, it's so easy to fake. Yeah. It's easy to get tapped out. You just kind of like get out wrestled. You know what I'm

saying? Yeah. But like, to fake a knockout is a little more ballsy. I don't know. I think it's going to become a little bit of a problem, and I think that's a clear... I know. I wonder what the solution to that is, though. There's just, there's got to be big punishment. There's certain sports, like NFL, you're not going to have to worry about it because

it's one, the only individual player that can actually do that is the quarterback, you know? So it just depends on the sport, but... I mean, if there's one person that's going to be able to handle, it's going to be Dana White. Yeah, I mean, he's going to get the bottom of it. He's not going to like that, and... How do you feel about a... Because you are like the King of Sends, let's get some. sendy uh

send the send virus what is the send virus can you explain to me what what is the send virus this is this is not even trending no more no but i know but i'm just curious you have the send virus do you get bothered now when people to call say give you the 31 30 by the way comments yeah yeah that's just annoying does it get to you a little bit yeah you too no no no not really no because i just fucking own it yeah the the end of the day i look at it like this it's like dude i would love to have a family having found the right person not there yet but it is kind of like i do i have changed i think i'm doing pretty good for a 31 you're doing great but i have changed my thoughts like i think going to the

club every weekend 30 plus is pretty fucking lame yeah like every weekend it's a little every weekend yeah yeah for no reason just to go out not filming or it's not for happy dad or like something work complicated yeah just to go out no yeah i can't even physically do that anymore i mean the fan the fans and people commenting it's all trolls you know take get too serious it is funny though but like I laugh at a lot shall not send like I kind of like when it started going viral on TikTok like I looked

at it and I was like oh no but that was like five years ago and then I was like oh wait it was only two oh shit maybe we are a little fuck but I mean dude it's funny like it's just I don't know I find it I find it funny yeah you got to play into it a little bit yeah I find it hilarious well that shit was going viral I found it funny

but it is true I mean there is things called the send virus like you have it Like, there's certain people that, like, you just get the send virus. And it's like, you can't stop that. I think they think that you said it recently, one, and then two, I think, uh, I completely think that too. The other thing, uh, but people don't give you credit for how healthy. Dude, you fucking are grinding and you go to the gym every single day.

You run fucking. Yeah. No, that shit doesn't affect me at all. That shit's funny. Like, it's, it's the internet. Yeah. I think now, too, it's like, I used to care a lot more what people thought on the internet. and now I'm like, I really don't care.

Why would you? I don't think a haters ever come up to me in real life. No, I don't think so either. Like, no one is, everyone that I've ever met in real life is like, just always positive energy. I've never had a hater. What I always think is TikTok changed the game because you're exposed to so many people that might not know you. So they only see you for that 15 seconds. So they're going to probably throw shade if they don't get your humor or know who you are.

But like a comment on the internet is not, it doesn't really mean anything. Yeah, no, who gives a fuck? Yeah, I could care less. Yeah. What else is in store? Is there, can we talk about the NELC video? Christmas? Is it too early for that?

No, yeah. We're going to do a Christmas special. Can we give a little details? Because I really fuck with this one. You think we should reveal it, though? There's going to be a huge Nelk video. Something different we never done. Let's say that.

Something we never done that. But it's going to be an elk Christmas special. But it's one of the videos where it's heavy production. Heavy production. A lot of logistics, a lot of traveling. but you know what gets me hyped about that is like having a Christmas special is so fucking lit yeah like we'll drop that like a week before Christmas or I don't know when we'll drop it but I just having a Christmas special what we're gonna do it's something we've never done yeah um and I think it's gonna be really wholesome funny just everything do you ever think about how like there's not one creator has tried the space route yet are people going to space though I mean, I, like, I thought that shit was supposed to happen years ago. You can just go up and break the surface and come back.

You don't got to, like, hang out up there, right? I thought people were supposed to be doing space tours by now. Like, it's kind of been delayed, right? I was scrolling on X the other day, and it's funny now. Elon and fucking Sam Altman are going at it. Really? Yeah. Like, you know, the roadster that Tesla was supposed to drop?

Mm-hmm. It was supposed to be the sickest car of all time. And it's been in production for seven years, and Sam Allman fucking comments and shows that he just asked for a refund. And he's like, well, it's been seven years. And then Elon just fucking fires back and they've been going at it ever since. And it's just like, it's so entertaining to me that two fucking multi, multi-billionaires, two of the most powerful people in the world are out in public on social media, starting beef with each other. What's your now opinion on the state of streaming now? I think streaming, it makes sense when it makes sense when there's collapse or where there's a

certain idea that's going to work. But, and I don't want to throw shit. to anybody, but it's, it's, I've noticed, like, the, the quality of content has gone down significantly. Like, you have too many people that just like, I mean, the stream that we all love that we did was whole on one. Yeah. That was great. Um, but it is, streaming's more of like, it's like more of a reality show. Yeah. Like, what do you see on a reality show? You see drama, you see people fighting. Right. That's the thing. We've tried to do streams that are more like, where we're trying to be the streamer. Yeah, like, no, no, we try to do more creative streams, like, are you smarter than a fifth grader? But then what we kind of learn is, like, the only thing that actually goes viral off those streams are still the drama-based thing.

Well, I don't think we're going to run this, but that whole, like, I thought we want, I want to do a Love Island with us. Dude, if we might, we might do that. If we do, like, how Bieber's kind of doing it where he just has cut cams, right? And you're just kind of, he's just kind of there. Like, he's not really talking to the cameras. You're just kind of watching him. but if we had a scenario like that where we have a house

10 girls 10 of us and it's just literally like a reality show violent as a stream might be better than YouTube video maybe I think so too and it'd just be absolute sanity then again like if you're making a YouTube video then like we said how much time have we spent having to go like all right well like

we actually have to make it creative like look what we did with our Nelp bachelor yeah like that was fucking creative if we do a live stream then you're giving the people what they want It's fucking dumb content, us, girls, like, we're not overthinking it. You get the drama. Speaking of, like, the pushing 30, I mean, how, uh, how much longer do you think you got

in this game? I mean, dude, like, I've always said this. I've been doing NELK for, like, 10 years now. Yeah. So, like, we do have something coming in the work, because I haven't mentioned to you much, but we are pitching, uh, we might do something on a streaming service. Nice. That's going to be more pranks.

Nice. But if I really wanted to right now, like... I could just walk away. Yeah. Like, I have enough money to walk away. How much you got? I don't want to say. No, I'm just curious.

Yeah, I have enough to, like, if I wanted to, like, be done with this right now and just be like, yo, guys, like, I've had a good run. You know, I appreciate it, but I could just step away and chill. Yeah, but what do you think you still enjoy about? You still, like, doing the content. My whole goal of this, too, and, like, what separates NELC and, like, I've always, like, even with Steve and stuff. Like, when I met Steve, like, our whole goal was this. And, like, that was my promise to him kind of was like, yeah, I'm going to help make you financially stable.

And that's something that I think we did at Nelk. And, like, Jesse is, you know, Jesse has a huge piece of happy dad. He put in work for fucking 10 years with me, too. And, like, Steve, same thing. And it's like, that was kind of our goal was to, like, let's do this. And let's, but let's not be like those other YouTubers that make a bunch of money and then, I mean, probably a lot of them are broke right now, right? Or it's like, what happened to them? They didn't build something.

So like we built something that now is bigger than us and that's Happy Dad. We're not making a ton of liquid money off Happy Dad right now. Actually, I've told you this before, but I haven't made a penny off Happy Dad. Yeah. That people might not know. But everything that Happy Dad is making is going to. right back into the business and it's being reinvested into buying

more cans and it's just launching new flavors. It's going right back into the business. We're building it to you know, we may exit it one day or we may not. We'll see what happens but. Really? Exit Happy Dad? You might not exit Happy Dad? I mean, you never know. What would happen in that scenario?

We'll start taking money out. Interesting. I mean, I think there's a pretty good chance it's going to. Yeah, for sure. It's going to go. I don't want to say publicly what it's like what we raised money at yeah because i can't say that publicly but let's just say hypothetically you do i mean it's it's over it's worth well over 100 million dollars sure so let's say you at you do exit is all of this going to be over for you no in terms of content no i think that's one the nilk channel could get even crazier so my point with that is like if i if i was like i i don't like what what else would i do you know like i'm really i know i think about that all the

time too like what would you do like you either have to just be like i really enjoy every day or yeah i would probably get nasty at golf and just get super fucking shredded yeah but um i do enjoy like like even the nilk channel like i enjoy it like so i don't know i think i would be down to have a big next year and run up the nilk channel yeah next year uh we'll do the christmas special yeah that's gonna be a traveling one and then dude i would just love to i don't know i feel like it would be cool with the nilk channel's like kind of like our purpose is to like i don't know just like interact with other humans from different parts of the world and yeah and show that we're all like humans and show that you can go to these countries it's also funny to see our crew and dip in those exactly well it's

become like our version of a documentary in a way yeah it's like a dgen documentary yeah so that was our goal though with nilk it's like bro let's do this and let's build a business that's gonna outlast us and that's kind of what we did with Happy Dad. Yeah. I think we'll have the biggest ticket for exit for a creator product. What about Prime?

I think Prime, I think Prime's... I love Prime. I don't like... Like, when Prime gets hate, I think it's like personally a great product. I love it. I actually have some in my fridge. I do too. I like it. I think Logan and the team send it to us. I love it.

I just think I think our team at Happy Dad, like Sammy, our CEO is the best. So wait, how much have you learned now? Because anyways, there'll be us or prime. It's not going to be feastables.

That's what I mainly meant. Yeah. Yeah. That's my opinion. But this is what I'm going to ask you them because now how long has happy that existed? Five years. Be five years with next June.

Somewhat know the fucking alcohol company now. I know a lot. I've learned a lot about it. When you see these other creators who are trying to follow us. Well, everyone's watching us and copying us. I'm not going to say names. You know, big companies, fucking White Claw, bro.

Like, they're watching us. Everyone's watching us. But hear me out. You know, I'll say something. People watch the Happy Dad Instagram so much, and they copy, they try to copy everything that we do. Like, I honestly think that, I think we forced High Noon into doing a deal with Barstool. Am I, uh? Not forced.

I think we, like, White Claw did no sponsorships. Yeah. before at all they didn't sponsor anyone and now they're tapping into like i will tell you they're tapping into the calip presley's and they're tapping into like so like even high noon i think like i mean we've fucking disrupted the market like crazy and i think that high noon kind of saw that too and high noon's i think highnoons are amazing they taste amazing they're fucking they're fucking great they're killing it and i also love like portnoy and bar stool um but yeah i think like you know these companies are watching obviously we're watching them here's what i'll tell you every single time

we have uh any business guest anyone a entrepreneur business background CEO on the podcast they never mentioned one thing about now because the podcast they always turned to happy dad and say it's so impressive what you've done with this so i've noticed that especially with like eric trump kevin o'leary mark Cuban just examples but knowing what you know now when you see because now there's a lot of like girl creators or launching fucking their own vodka drinks. Can you tell right away? Like Kylie Jenner's drinks

Brinner? Yeah. I've seen one girl drink that? And I'm not shitting on Kylie Jenner. I haven't, I've never actually seen She's a boss-ass businesswoman, but She's a boss. We're not going to ever throw shade it. I'm not. I'm just saying in general, though, have you ever seen someone? I have not. Okay. But then you see like even Alex Earle launches one. Like, can you

tell right away what she could be doing better, what she's not doing right? I don't know how Alex Earles was doing. I've noticed with alcohol and I just think whatever product you launch and we've tried to kind of do other shit too you really got to be about like like you like you got to be about whatever your product is

and you got to actually love it you know what I'm saying like when we're at a party what are we actually drinking? Yeah like we're not fucking buying white claws and then like when the camera comes out we're like oh fuck throw like we don't drink like we drink happy dads right yeah it connected with our fan base so wells because we just naturally, we drank for fucking

Our whole careers in 12 years people saw us drinking before Happy Dad was even like a thing. So when we launched it, it was it was natural I think most of their alcohols are probably flopping because they're they're not they're not actually drinking like that. I think you're right. I've heard other people too like we could bleep out the name, but like for example huge huge actor absolute Beast as well, but he has a tequila brand. Again, he probably copied us because they see us go be bartenders at bars and stuff like that. So, he was doing his own little

tour, and there's a video of someone asking him to take a shot, and he's like, oh, no, I don't drink. It's like, you can't do that. The other thing about... Like, you've got to drink. If you want to have an alcohol, you got to fucking drink. The other thing about that is not even if he drinks or not, it's like, people are

fans of him because of his movies, because of his what he does. The fans of us are fucking people that like to party. So when we're selling, the people we're selling to do exactly what we do, you can't just be some random dude and expect, oh, just because of who you are, they're going to go buy this.

Like, it's more of a lifestyle. It is. So that's what, even what I've learned is like, I see other creators launching products and I'm like, dude, because I've seen the grind. I used to go to liquor store to liquor store, and I'm like, this shit is not easy.

No. People, I think, think, right away, oh, I think we did over 400 meetups. Yeah, it's crazy. a year or so. Yeah. Yeah. No, I just think it's interesting

to talk about that and you never really hear. Yeah. We never really talked about it, yeah. Well, there's so many rules. There's so many rules with Happy Dad with alcohol that you like, you know,

we talked about in our other pod. You can't shit on other products. So there's so many rules, but I feel like it'll all come out one day in like a documentary. Yeah. It's like there's so much shit that you don't see. Well, dude, I hope

when you do get that exit plan, you remember who was there with you for fucking. Yeah, we have a little piece too, right? Well, yeah, no, we'll be Don't worry, we'll be handing out stacks. I'll buy a little Yeah, we'll be a little stacks 20, 2018 suburban, but Yeah, yeah, with my shares. We'll be

We'll be handing out stacks for sure. All right, well, dude, the Christmas special is going to be the sickest video. I think we've done in a long time. Can't be more excited. Nope, YouTube's fucking fully back. Podcast is back hunting. Yeah, I love these internals. China video coming out soon.

We got a Christmas special on the way, keeping the podcast going every week. shout out to everyone watching we'll see you guys next week
