Today, we have two guests on the podcast. My first guest is a former amateur kickboxing, boxing, MMA fighter training out of the world famous, highly respected team quest. He's also a RFBJJ checkmat black belt, which basically means he could choke me out any moment he wanted to throw me around like a leftover piece of pizza. But that's cool. But most importantly, he's one of my best friends that I've known for many years. He frequently hangs around other members of suicide silence,

so he's very close to our circle, and that's why we love him very much. My next guest has toured the world countless times has played countless club arena, festival stages worldwide. He's my brother for life, base player for suicide silence. Let's get into it. Nick Vega and Dan Kenney. Thank you guys for being here.

Thank you for making the Drive D.K. My brother and a bass player for how many years? I've been in the band's 08. December of 08. So you do the math. Wow. O, A, that's going on, that's... 13 years almost?

9, 10, 11, 13. Yeah. 13 years. That's great, right? How sick. How long have I known you, Nick? Oh, fuck. 2004, I think.

2004. I think so. Damn. 2006, maybe? I know you for a while because me, I was jamming with my cousin Mike in his garage and Elsinore for a while. And that's how I met you. I remember my first time meeting you, we were jamming the Skinny Magazine party at the pins and pockets now. And I roll up and Mike's like, hey, dude, you might have my cousin jammed with us.

And I'm like, does you know the transitions of songs? He's like, yeah. And he's such a solid musician like yourself, like you guys. I took his word for it without meeting him. Like, cool, where's this guy at? He's like, oh, he's over there. I look on stage. Jim right behind the fucking our singers of mic stand.

This dude's sprawled out laying on the floor. I'm like, it's odd. You don't see that often, right? Garza was? Garza, just never said a word. During our set, I think we're covering unsung from Helmet. And we're, you know, we're straight from the fucking drums.

And he's got a point in time. He's fucking mop killing as hard as you can. I'm like, fuck, yeah. Like, he's right there in the pocket. And I was like, dude, this guy's my homie for life now. I don't know why just laid on a stage until the show started. It's just like the same old situation. You know, you're a better million.

time. It's what cats do and you're a cat. That's true. What's your animal? A deer? I think I might have moved on from a deer. Moved on? Yeah. To a quoka. Quoka? Those little Australian things that just smile, but they'll fucking kill you. I like that. Yeah, they're cute as fuck.

D.K. Quoka, how about you, Nick? I would say, like, sloth? My brother has a good one for you. for me. He says Nick always looks like a desert tortoise. He just always said, Nick always looks so thirsty, man. He's just thirsty. Got the water, got the shelter.

He's got two drinks right now. That's insane. Double-fifting. Whatever will you say you are? I don't know. I guess a dog or a bull. But then everyone says like, oh, you're, you know, may, you're a tourist. So, you know, the bulls are spirit out of the moment.

Like, nah, I don't know. Garza, have you moved on from Chupacabra or what? I don't know. It's gone on from turtle. To Tupacabra to cat. Cat, turtle, three months ago, someone called me a dragon. Sick.

It might have been the hair. I don't think I've earned the fucking term dragon. That's a pretty cool. It's not even a real animal. That's like a mystical being. I'm not there yet. Bruce Lee's the, he's a little dragon. That's his name.

He's known as Little Dragon. Yeah, he, Bruce Lee's earned that one for sure. God, dragon. Yeah, for martial arts, For martial arts, I always, like, you know, thought, oh, you know, because it's eight points of strike and the hands, the fucking knees, elbows, and shins. Yeah. I was the feet, too, but I wanted a dragon and a tiger, you know, like the old-school martial arts, but I got the dragon. Not so much for Bruce Lee, but just, like, you know, kind of martial arts.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, how long have you been training? Oh, fuck. I had my surgery in 2004, and two years later, I had my first Muay Thai fight in 2006, and so, fuck. What are that? 15 years? 16 years? Yeah.

Yeah. Dang. Still trying to just... It's my physical therapy of staying healthy, you know? For sure. It's the thought of you. It's your physical therapy. I mean, of course, I mean, you know, it's your spiritual, your emotional, your mental, you know?

And it also helps out your friends. I'm pretty sure D.K. might be able to back me up on this, but we feel kind of safe when we're hanging out with you. Oh, yeah. I mean, but I'm not just the goon, the enforcer, you know? I'm down to jam with you. guys and just bro down. I can have more fun knowing that I have a friend with me who could do some karate. Yeah.

Well, remember when we were in Old Town, dude? Remember you guys? We were in Old Town that you're freaking... Talk about this story all the time, but I don't remember it. So we're walking down the street after lunch or whatever, and some guys, like, oh, nice hair to you. Oh, yeah, some guy tried to punk me. And I was right... He didn't know I was with you guys right behind you guys on one nice face.

You looked at me, and I was, like, looking into the soul, like, dude, I almost turn your face and a fucking... Sorry, I'm gonna curse. I crushed his skull, like an egg carton if I wanted to. I wouldn't do that, but I'll... like it's right here if you wanted you're just seeing like oh shit yeah i must have been a completely shit face because i don't remember that at all yeah well just like saturday night he's probably like nice face i was like probably like yeah it does have a nice face

oh thank you man i have a nice there too yeah yeah it's so weird that's like he must have been uh there were younger bros yeah but younger i mean like probably mid-20s yeah that's funny that that's younger now just that was your They were in that bully mentality, you know? Yeah. It's so weird. I've never been about that life. Just looking for trouble.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's super strange. Like, I mean, I can't even imagine being them. Like, they thought I was alone. So, like, we're, like, we're going to pick on this guy. Yeah, they're barking up the wrong tree. It's so weird.

It's so weird. It's so weird. They fucking say something. And, like, Nick Figuer does come out of bushes. Oh, he's not alone. Of course not. No, man. That's like back in the day when he would carry a baseball bat.

I'm like, you're going to the bat and cage? She's like, no, okay, shit goes wrong. I'm like, well, just keep training that team quest, dude. And he told me about something happened with you guys. And I was like, okay, DG is my new best friend. Because not a new best friend, but you know what I mean. Like, he lives close. I'm going to hang out with him.

And same shit, you're hiding in the bushes. Be like, waiting for it. Like, it's not something that they want. It's what they fucking need in life. You know, you got something that hides in the bushes. So basically what you're saying? A gorilla. A gorilla?

Yeah. You just sit there and eat bananas by yourself. Wait for something to go wrong with one of your friends. Have we officially introduced Nick? Oh. No, but I was planning on doing a proper, proper introduction when episodes over. I'm going to do a whole separate thing. So it's right here.

Okay. So it's going to... Just the bro hanging out. Yeah, I'm going to say some and then it's going to pop into the episode. But, babe, thank you. I appreciate that. Nick plays in brouharia. Yeah.

Yeah. He's a lot of the mask. Right? Now he's sick, dude. I know. Nick Vega is a very, very close friend, very tight-knit with us. I've known you for a long time. And you actually become friends with pretty much our entire band.

Yeah. You know, which is kind of a rare thing where someone is going to hang out with, when you're out in Semencula, you're hanging out with D.K. You're hanging on Mark. If you're here hanging out with me. Yeah, of course. It's pretty cool. It's cool.

It is cool because I'm blessed in life with, like, martial arts and music. You know, I have, like, people that are, like, very passionate and make it their lifestyle. So, like, me, I'm kind of like, the wand green freaking tumble with, like, in between the two different realms. There's only a handful of people I can think of that literally, could just like hang out with each of our band members on their own you know yeah like know each other well enough to be like i'm gonna hit up we fucking hang out to shit to guzillo right down the street yeah but fucking yeah i mean who else can do that my brother could do it true but he's also he's us he's family though he's already in my world for sure but i don't know there's handful of people

that for sure can yeah man you're you're you're a rare guy you're nick bega is a very lovable guy a very pure heart and soul the the gorilla yeah a very pure heart of gorilla that I'm not a gorilla happy gorilla happy gorilla I would say a ring a ring and ting gorillas are cooler but gorillas are cooler and we all know you

you will never cross a any gain from that species never there's barriers you don't you know no matter how nice day they seem they've been known to rip off your fucking face whenever they want and I know I know you have that in you and that well it's like I said it's not I mean, it's not what they want.

It's not what you want to do. It's what they need. There's guerrillas that will completely destroy you, but then there's like that Robin Williams documentary where Coco's just kissing and loving on Robin Williams. That's me. Yeah. I could also rip their arms off too, though, if I needed you.

You're Coco. I don't know. Your Coco's cousin. I like try not to carry myself that way because I hate when people are like, all those guys knocked out so many fucking people. It's like, dude, I don't want to have that energy on me. You don't, man. Because you, like, the training you did back of the day,

like you cracked me once good in sparring. And I got pissed, and I gave him a three piece, fucking three quick kicks to the fucking to the side of the leg. But I was proud. I was like a proud dad.

He popped me in the face and I was like, that's beautiful. You know, he's like, he's superman punch him. Boom. Like he's not going to

right in the fucking zygomatic. Do you, you know who, I know I always bring it up to you, D.K. Man,

I think you would kill it at a Gujitsu. I think you would kill it, dude. You already have that mind and you're already super passionate about it.

Yeah, the thing I definitely think I would know as I watched it for so long and I know the moves I just got to practice them and do them and I got long-ass limbs but I wrestle for a while but then I just started partying. Oh my God.

I had to bring it home dude even though it's my belt technically right now. You got to defend it but. Explain what that belt is guys. It's between you guys. You guys have some there you go. There it is. You guys have some weird little, you guys have some weird little belt thing going on with each

other. So we have a bet But for those only listening, Nick Baker brought over our belt because we do weight loss competitions, and I beat him three times. And I let him win the fourth time. And he won the belt for me. You do like a month to see who could lose more pounds, right? Yeah, just pounds. You never lose the pound gets to keep the wrestling belt. Well, at first he was we would bet money.

And then like the first one was like, okay. And you lost $50. $50. Did you? Did you take us out for drinks, though, and spend the money on the drinks? Yeah. Yeah, yeah. You're like, hey, the bar tab's going to be yours.

Yeah. Yeah, that's right. We did go to Rosalie's, huh? Yeah, Mark mentioned... I asked Mark, hey, what's like a sick, like, pizza spot? And he said that spot, and I didn't really love it. Oh, yeah. Mark's new shirt, I told him I would wear it for the podcast.

Oh, yeah, right on. So, if you honestly, that kind of pizza, I don't know. That's a sick shirt. I don't want that one. I want that one. What the fuck? Well, dude, he had an extra argy. I was like, dude, I'll wear it for the podcast.

We know this guy who fucking gets metal shirts and like tie-dyes him himself. Dude, that's sick. So he, Mark just got a death one. It's sick. He's a whole angel one. He does it anyway, like red shit. It all looks crazy. Love it.

Love it. Purple one, dude. Yeah. If you want to send some shirts to him to, like, tie-dye for you, you probably can't. Dude, that shirt's fucking sick. I just had the black one. I got to ask him for a new one then. That's bad.

Sick. You can never have too many t-shirts. Yes, you can. Can you? Yeah. I've selling them all my depop. because I want fucking a lot of those shirts gone. Number one, a lot of them don't fit anymore because I'm fucking fat.

I told him's going to cook up on you. Dude, I see you're fat now, dude. Next thing you know, you have little ass tities. What do you wake up? No, you grew some quarantine tities. Around your belly butt just starts to get a little chubby, a little donut. And then the next thing you know, you're fucking struggling to put on your own socks. Oh, man.

When you got to hold your breath tire shoes. Dude, I need to, yeah, right on the, I've settled on my steps. It's terrible, man. Yeah, it's terrible. What we're talking about besides me being... A lot of shirts. Yeah, t-shirts. Yeah, shirts.

I sell some of them. I've sold some old-ass shirts. I sold the D-Side long sleeve for $250 bucks. Such as a medium. I wore it when I was a kid. But you can't get it anymore. You know, vintage metal shirts are popular. They're big, dude.

Anything vintage, that's like a whole scene. Do you think down the road, at some point you think you'll regret selling those T-shirts? No. No? Really? I really like look at my... I look at my closet and all the shirts that I do wear.

I rotate like 20 shirts. Yeah. And then all I have boxes full of shirts. I have like 85 more other shirts that just sit in a box. Yeah. Someone would appreciate someone would wear, you know? True. True.

So I do sell some of them. Some of them are cheap. I gave some to, I gave away, accidentally gave away, like, some old Moulot angel shirts. I put them in the wrong pile. Oh. You can't ask for them back. But they, no, no, no. They went into fucking a goodwill box.

Okay. So, like, they're going to see these old Moverdianel shirts. Our medium, and it'd be like, well, we can't give this away because this has a fucking dying angel on it. Ah. Those are being cool to hang on to you. I know. Like Jesse Tate, who was in a band with me with Mike, your cousin. He liked my Sepuletura Chaos ID shirt so much.

And I was like, it's yours, bro. So he still has it. It's years old, but still seeing that shirt, I'm like, fuck, yeah. It made the fucking. That's a shirt I'd love to have. That was a sick shirt. It's one of the best records ever. I know.

I've always wanted a... I have, like, a lipstick shirts I want, and I was... And Roots is like, of course, one of those, like, but dude, if you get like, if you find the shirt you want on, like, it's eBay for me. Man, if you get a shirt from the 90s, you're looking at a pretty hefty price tag. If you download that app, Deepop, the one I sell shirts on, you could, like, type in shirts and, like, look what people are selling themselves. Oh, okay. They're vintage, you know, I find old fucking ultimate warrior shirts on there. Sick.

Old Dallas Cowboy, long sleeves, like, just really cool shit on there. And some people don't even know what they have So they're like, it's only 20 bucks You're like, ooh Yeah, it's like finding a jackpot And like a yard sell or some shit For sure What?

Yeah, it's a sick ass website It's a sick idea It's just like eBay for like clothes Because all the things people would have like a specialty boutique Specifically for that You know like those rare band shirts Like how you're saying there's a website for it It makes it even easier

You don't have to go anywhere Just boom over my mind Oh yeah these people on that website They make their own little stores And like you see someone has like a bunch of Those have a bunch of metal shit You're like perfect I'm gonna look through all of the shit

Sick yeah I've sold a hundred tons of shit on there already wow it makes sense I mean just this morning puffed my head like once a month how I just regret selling or giving away or throwing away all all those t-shirts and I'm now on eBay

looking like to rebide but but then again I mean you do outgrow them like they're mediums and now you wear largest as you get older you want like bag your shirts yeah for sure I mean what the fuck am I going to do with an old ass gray medium necrophages shirt. Like,

I mean, it was the first time he came over here and brought the shirt with them. It's the first, first printing of shirts. I was like,

fuck it, I'll sell it. There you go. What did he? It was large. It was large and gray. It was pretty worn, though.

So I don't know. I like my shirt's a little bit newer looking. Really? Oh, okay. I like, I like the fucking beat up. Like, yeah.

You got fucking holes of your pants, dude. I fell, dude. What the fuck? Yeah, right.

You fucking holes. You fucking fell online and bought it some jeans. You do a power slide, freaking Tenetius D power slide. Go, just rip the knees out. I live my life, dude. I live, I live life. Dude.

Oh, you got some pants under there, though? Yeah, I got some fucking Nike tights, dude. Those are good for Nogi. You're back full circle. You should do Nogi, and you guys should start for anything to you, man. I'm so... It'll happen. One of my adjectives is lazy for sure.

I'm very lazy. That's my middle name, dude. I love lazy. Like, oh, what did you do all day? Watch so much for us. files and I made some great lunch like that's lazy but the gym is open I know

and I could go I just and also I smoke cigarettes for fucking like 14 years and it's been almost like a year since I stopped it would be a year in May but damn I swear my lungs are still fucked up from it like it's like I run up the stairs and I'm just like

it sucks we horseplay like whenever we're watching fights and stuff when we have a couple drinks like you want to wrestle and shit so we throw it on and then Missy he jumps in, I'm freaking wrestling both you at some time. Yeah. It makes you feel like

when you're little kids and you and your cousins just start fucking throwing pillows at each other and jump off the couch. We never get serious. We're just laughing. We're laughing the whole time.

The whole time, dude. Yeah. Yeah, that feeling of being kid and everybody leaves you of just wrestling, being an idiot. No, that's what's what happens. It's been in good companies.

You get loose in that point out. That's what you get hammered you start acting like a kid again. I know, yeah. You can barely speak, can't walk that well. Start crying. You start crying.

Well, That was like that dude at the fights. He started horse playing too much. I had to send him straight. I was like, yo, dude, like, you got a horse plate in the crop. You're starting to fucking wander. Oh, my God, dude. Yeah, it sucked.

Oh, well, he's cool. It brought him back down to reality. Yeah. That got a little scuffle on Saturday night after the fights. I heard. I just gave him one dinger behind the ear just to like, it calmed out. And he was like, oh, shit. Like, he had no idea that that stuff existed in real life.

So he was, all right, I'm cool. Yeah, I'm cool. All right. Back to normal. Yeah, there's, it's very. rare and I wasn't there but based on what you told me earlier is that the older I get the more I kind of rethink my my feelings towards hitting people yeah I think that some people should get hit it's very it's rare it's like I said they don't like they

fucking need it like you got to be like give them a little smack oh shit I probably shouldn't be like like an idiot yeah give them they got to be like a lesson you know yeah it's like disciplinary like as child he was from our parents You know Yeah. Just like, all right, you know, you gotta stay between the lines and shit. Yeah.

Some people deserve a nice little, some people deserve a slap. Some people deserve a knockout punch. Yeah. Some people deserve to go to sleep. Yeah. Oh, yeah, dude. Like, people who are rude.

I've done that. Yeah, you've done that. People who are rude to waitresses and shit. Tell them that one. You call it them fucking. Or people who just like, I don't know. Oh, yeah.

You just did something where you, situation was going down, right? And you came up behind him. and he just got him to his neck because he was gonna like hit a girl or something? Yeah, I was at a bar and I had my foot

like waiting order the next beer right? Yeah. In between a couple here a guy and his chick and another girl and her girlfriend here and the guys are all sloppy

making out and I'm asking him the girl. The guys were making out? No, the guy and his girlfriend are making out. I asked the girl with her girlfriend. I'm like,

do you know them? She's like, not at all. So they're freaking leaning on her so hard she pushes him like, get off me asshole. The guy turns around to freaking throw a cane maker at her face.

Luckily I was there so when he swung I was, dude, right into a fucking arm triangle, just walked him up. And he was face first on the ground. Like how they plank or whatever, he was face first. My buddy, everyone there is bouncers, like fighters from the gym. And they come up and they're like, what the fuck happened? I'm like, he tried to hit the girl.

And boom, they got him out of there. I put him to sleep. Yeah, didn't hit him, just put him to sleep. He just nap time. Yeah, that's one of those rare things for it. Yeah, it's usually 90% of the time drinking is involved too. For sure. Yeah.

Because no one really acts like that sober usually, but there's, I don't know. I had an old roommate where he would get too far out of line. I had to like, hey, dude. Like, we all, we all, you know, do stupid shit. And like, oh, man, I'm sorry. But, like, this guy was, like, way past the line. I'm like, dude, like, that needs professional help. But I gave him temporary professional help just starched them,

just put him out of his misery. Starched them. Yeah, that's, like, some real life therapy in real time. And it sounds fucked up, dude. I know people are like, too, you can't just be go hitting people when they were drunk. But this guy was doing so fucking weird shit. When I tell you what happened?

What was it the story of your roommate? Yeah. Okay. I had a cut wheat for my fight in Vegas. And all I had was a case of water, rice cakes, and beef jerky just a snack on until it was having to drop the weight. Yeah. And he tried to, like, defecate or masturbate on him. And all was cutting weight cranky.

I'm like, dude, not today. Just 20 on splice. I don't know. Rice cakes are pretty gross. So he might have made it better. No. Especially when you're cutting weight. Like you got that extra like you're just fucking pissed?

It's like you're tired and hungry at the same time. You're super hangary, cranky. Yeah, yeah. All that on top of dealing with the crazy freaking roommate going out of, you know, I'm not name dropping anyone. I don't want to throw anyone under the bus, but I had to have to set them straight. Yeah, I live my life trying not to get storched by people. Starched.

Starched. That's good. Yeah, for sure. It's a way of life. Remember, I look back in like a few moments in my life where like I wish someone fucking hit me or smack me like what the fuck are you doing? Or I wish like there's two times

maybe I wish like I probably should have thought that guy. Because sometimes with your friends if you kind of do a quick duke out you're like closer. You know? There's like that mutual. Oh sure. It's like fucking James Lynch and Eddie. Yeah. Oh they threw down?

Oh they threw down and I had to fucking do it. Oh I would love referee the match. I was a referee I just kind of just like took them both down with me. There you go. Yeah. But yeah, that's, he's, that was just drunken shenanigans after a show. Yeah.

Now, look at them. Text back and forth. Nudes to each other. They love each other. No, not. Everything is great. Like how you're saying, a lot of times, like, when, even in, like, competition in combat sports, your opponent doesn't have to be your enemy.

You know, like, you don't have to have any, like, hate or anything towards them to just go in there and like, yeah, I'm here to win. I know you are, too, so let's go handle it. Oh, fuck. And we can drink a beer afterwards. If we're cool. If not, then, you know, go after yourself. Yeah.

I hate everyone even when I'm playing Monopoly. I'll hate you until it's over it. Oh, dude, this guy is like, he's like you. The way this guy acts when we cut weight for the competition is that way this guy plays board games. He'll call fouls when there's not a foul. That's definitely a foul. It's like, no, that just wasn't in your favor. So you're calling a foul.

Dude, I fucking want, I have to win. Yeah. And if I don't win, if I don't win, let's play again. Yeah. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah, you guys got me into the board games. You got me in board games and I got me Uno.

We got Uno here because you and you see. I've always been a big board game card game guy. Always. But especially with quarantine hit, it's like time to buy fucking 15 more games. Cues and Q's is fun. I thought one. Cep, we threw on that one. Clues is always good.

That's a battleship. We have like, Stone Church Brewery. Yeah. Oh, you guys, did you guys play with shots? No, no, it was the many, like the road case. You and your brother were playing in the backseat, you know, going on road to shit.

You can actually play that on the phone, too, against somebody. Really? Yeah. They have Battleship app. I got to get the Battleship app. Yeah. Tom, not plugging Battleship, but just saying, you know. Yeah.

No, Battleship is fun because you could talk shit. Tom got me. Tom Goluccio got me into that. You were played Battleship for like in Connect 4. You know, just like little games when you're, you know, hanging out of your brothers, you know. Yeah, it's fun, man. Remember when the whole Pandy happened, I brought in a lot that happened. Me and C.C. went to Target, and all the poor games were gone.

All of the good ones and all of the good ones that suck and no one wanted were put in there. If these are left during a fucking pandi, I'm not gonna fucking buy these now and fucking play them, dude? The Darkwing Duck Monopoly said? Should I even even heard of? Yeah, fuck yeah. I can't only repeat. Like, oh, we wanted like, you know, battleship.

I didn't want a Uno 2 and like, it was just, it was fucking wiped out. Yeah, Uno 1's gone for sure. Uno 2.5 for sure stolen the shelves. Have price clear. That's stolen, too. Stolen? Yeah, I mean, Target definitely sold out quick.

Even Amazon was sold out of stuff. Amazon, I did. We definitely got like at least 10 more games. is when the pandemic started. Damn. We got like 25 games now. We got hella Switch games. We're fucking set up.

Yeah, we throw it out on Trivial Prochute or did you trivial pursuit? Tribal Pursuit and Family Feud on the Switch. Oh yeah. That's fun. I feel blessed.

I got avatars in those radio games. Yeah, he has avatars before he even plays them. We create his character because he knows, he knows he's like our Kramer. He just comes in. Hey guys, what are we playing? It's like,

Nick, it's fucking Tuesday afternoon, man. Nick, Kramer, Big. No, usually it was after, it was after practice. If they were down at doing a trivia night at Devilicious and all the time before the pandemic, I'd be at either Muay Thai at TeamQuest or Djitsu. Now, check Matt is not a Team Quest, but Tuesday or Thursday nights, you guys would be there.

Yeah, it was Wednesday night. One of the most things I miss about life, when life was normal, is that we would be able to go Wednesday night to the bar and go to fucking trivia, and you could win prizes. We won fifth. first place before and got $53 to spend.

Yeah, I missed that, the movies, and I miss bowling. Van Baird is still open, you can go watch a double feature. That car one? I had the drive-in. The car one? No, car one. The one where you gotta be in your car? Luckily my car's cool, so. I should take an inflatable mattress

in the bed of my truck and blanket sheets. Brilliant. Brilliant. Yeah, smoke a little weed. Yeah, wake up during the credits. Oh. Damn. Have you been there, Garza? The, uh, the drive in here? Yeah.

Yeah, when I was a kid. Oh, you haven't gone? It's been, it's been a while. They got good carnisota. You should go on a date, dude. You should go on a date, dude. Yeah, we'll go. We'll go on a date.

There you go. See what movies are playing and fucking just. I mean, you can watch them at home, but nothing beats the theater. Nothing. You know. The theater is so sick, man. I mean, Dolby Atmos, fucking 4K. Do they have new movies or just like they play old shit?

They have new movies, like, releases and stuff? because like it'll work now everything's fucking because lockdown like amazon google hbo go and all that shit but they'll also do because they know like other states everything like texas is wide open dude i know you can go to a movie theater and like fucking chum it up if it proves i don't watch that movie i know they push they push back the new ghostbusters till november they keep pushing it back because they want the fucking people to go see it fuck yeah it's like a hundred million dollar movie or something it's crazy it looks super fun the trailer is great yeah yeah but the little kids who who uh

find the Ghostmobile. They release all the fucking ghosts on accident. Acto posseum and shit. And all their grandpas are like Bill Murray and Dan Aykrad. Really? The dad in the movie is Paul Rudd. It looks fucking awesome.

That sounds awesome. Hell yeah. That's a wood theater for sure. Yeah. I want to watch that shit at home where I watch that UFC countdowns. I want to see it in theater. Yeah, yeah. Drow on the popcorn and butter and shit.

Dude. Do you mean drown the popcorn with butter? Yeah, yeah. Dude, Ghostbusters. What a great movie. One, one and two. Yeah, of course. Instant classic, dude.

Fuck, the first one is amazing. I know. We were just, we watched that the other day. Me and my girl and my roommate, we realized how Rick Moran is just so little. He's like, he's like looking up at every woman.

Oh, yeah, yeah. He's a cool dude, man. Definitely, yeah, he stopped acting to help his wife think she had cancer or something. He's like stopped for like 20 years. Now he's back, which is cool. Really? Yeah, he's coming back, dude. I know that.

I hope he's been the new gustbuster somewhere. That'd be pretty cool, man. He fit that part. perfectly do it. Oh, you can get a bit of dork. Like a lot of actors, too, that are, like, you know, whatever, like, they have Little Man's in or whatever. To me, it doesn't matter. We're who we were

fucking born to be. But a lot of actors, you won't see them standing next to, like, a fucking, back in the day, a public phone or a door handle. Because you could reference their height. So you always see, like, Tom Cruise and shit, he's fucking sprinting all the time. You can't relate his height. Oh, dude, I'm constantly looking

up Celebrity's heights. I don't know why. Oh, my God. I always want to know how tall people are Like when you see them making out, like he's probably standing on a half apple or full So that's just a little short as fuck. Yeah. He's definitely standing on a fucking muck crate to make out with fucking. Yeah. What's the chick from Rocky Ford?

Tall, tall girl. I forget her name. Was she married to flavor of leave? That one. Yeah, I forget her name. How tall is Sly? Five, uh, five seven. My size is a fucking short fuck.

Oh, dude. Oh, I know it's great. I'm failing. She's looking that up. Sylvester Stallone's height? If we... No, you do it. I bet you can't.

I bet you to try to spell Sylvester. That's even harder. I'm going to guess five... Five, seven. Because I'm pretty short. It's five, ten. And I call them short. Okay, okay.

That's not short as fuck. The reason why people say he's short as fuck is because all the boxes movies, I guess he did. They're all huge. So that's why he looks short. I don't know. 5'10. I also don't know how right the internet is, but

golfing out of 5'1. I saw him at Coachella. He's not 5'10. He's shorter? He's shorter than 510. Yeah. I saw him at Coachella. I've seen him move on.

That's Coachella. Hell yeah. Cichella cool, dude. Yeah, that's an Indio. And from here, that's about hour and 15 north. So it's pretty close by. 10 East.

Wait, how much farther past is it from Temecula where we live? India, the polo fields

were they to Coachella? Yeah. That's just 10 East like heading towards Palm Springs. Oh. Yeah.

I don't think I'll ever go to Coachella. It has to be at least 10 bands I want to see for me to go. I went once

2006, the battle of the battle of Colcella. Friday was Chilli peppers which is the shit. That's cool. Saturday was

freezing ice machine. See, that's cool. That's cool, that's cool, but I want more. Give me more. If you'll me go out at that fucking shitty hot hellhole where fucking people are all fucking

taking molly yeah overdosing in the freaking grass people are dirty and fucking ugh i got one i went to gochella for the big four nice wait there was it wasn't gocello it was just the same fairgrounds yeah same thing that's that's that's the name of the actual venue endio fairgrounds yeah i think it's actually i think that i mean someone correct me if i'm wrong i think the venue is actually called gochella is that No. Coachella's the event. It's the Empire Polegrounds.

Coachella is basically like Woodstock. Because the week after Coachella, they have a like Hellfest. Don't listen to me. I'm idiot. One of my coworkers, he does Colchella.

Went to Coachella. He stays her for a month. I saw him. I was looking at you. Like, they played Coachella? I got hitting a face in the water bottle. It was sick.

Oh, man. Was a fool? Yeah. It made me feel like I'm in concert. Like, right before they're about to play like a full, someone threw a full. water bottle, which is the waste of fucking water

and hit me in like, they were somewhere way back there, they just probably chugged it and then hit me square in the fucking face. I would love to be hit with a water bottle at a show right now. I've got hit in the face at you now. That would be like cool, yeah. At a show, I pretty much fucking shit my pants to be at a show right now. I don't even care.

Yeah. I'll see anyone. I'll see fucking hooting in the blowfish right now. I'll see fucking... Hansen and Nickelback, back to back. I'll see anyone right now. I don't even care. dude those shirts are fucking sick Mark I want one man

dude but Garza he does other shit than see that like kind of tight eye print yeah he does a lot other prints like spider web outside blown out I'll have to show you his Instagram he had a dead it was an orange font death and it was long sleeve and how are you saying

he like spider wept up on the longstead I was like that shit you like drizzles it's like none of it looks cheesy at all not at all it's part of fuck he did like a mortician shirt that looks so sick wow I know yeah it's crazy how the uh I mean I have a purple tie dye shirt

on the way. But those, those dye shirts are fucking, they look so cool. Did, uh, Mark already had that printed? Or did, or do you do the dye first and then you print on top of that? I think you do the, I have no idea. I think you do the dye after the shirt printed. Okay.

You could give them any shirt, you give them that shirt and he'll fucking. Oh, so that, oh, so he could save the hate breed font and then tie-dye the shirt in the background? Pretty positive. Yeah, because he does old, he does bitched shirts. So it's a glaring. Shirts that are like gray and old looking. That's fucking sick.

That's hard as fuck. He sells them and they're sick. Fuck yeah. But he knows all about metal too because he has like sick ass type of negative shit. I can take an old school team quest fight shirt. Sure. Sure can't. And the cool thing about getting shirts like that is not only like.

It's only one. Yeah, you one of a kind of. Like that's that one next to the one other mark has one of a kind. Each of them are one of a kind. So they're all different. You guys open up a can of worms that like now I want on my shirt died. Nice. All my corn shirts and like fucking slipmots shirts.

Yeah. You're gonna just be just tie-dye guy. I'm gonna get a tie-dye guy. Nice. Wow. That's so cool though. I give you some props right now. When you're like on to something like you're all about it like when you came to Muay Thai back in the day George Daniel Vodon, that guy's a sick bastard. Not sick bastard, I mean he's like slick, slick as fuck. And I got this guy to come in. No one ever comes in. Oh, I've kicked so many asses. Well, that's cool. You know, just come train. You're not going to fight in the cage against Dan Henderson. You're going to go on there. You should learn how to fucking scrap. Yeah, that's what I think that's why a lot of people are afraid to go into the gym.

They think you're going to jump in the cage. It's fucking terrifying, man. You guys are just going to kick my ass and everyone's an asshole, blah, blah, blah. It's like, they watch too many movies. For sure. Also, too, they have karma on their neck because they know they're a bully mentality. They're thinking, fuck, it's time to pay the piper. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. If I go in there, they're not going to spar with me. Yeah. Of course not. So you're going to be lucky if he even, like, sees you in his gym, you know? Yeah. But he's a cool motherfucker and he's cool shit. But last thing he's worried about is the kid going on there signing the waiver

and doing, like, a one-time fucking training session. Yeah. But the cool thing about this guy was, God risk. you know, Mitch, rest in peace, rest in power. He was not long after Mitch passed away. He texted me, hey, dude, I got to talk about something important. I was all like, nerds, ball. I'm like, oh, fuck, what's wrong, man?

What's going on? What's going on in life? He's like, I think I'm going to hit you up on your offer and come train. I was like, fuck. After years. After years. After years. You're trying to like, yo, come train, dude. Yeah.

Guys are, I remember guys. Same thing with you. I'll look, come do you up. I'd bring up. I'm the biggest fucking. I'll have drinks with you and like, yeah, dude. We'll fucking, we'll fucking start fucking tomorrow, dude. 12 morning, dude.

4.m. 7 a.m. sharp. And I fucking wake up two days later and be like, what the hell are you talking about, Nick? I never talked to you about fighting. I never once mentioned going to the gym. Yeah, just because I watch fighting doesn't mean I want to fight. Hey, you don't have to, you don't have to fight. Just go on there and learn some ninja shit. Yeah, I don't even like to walk fast, dude.

Fuck that. He's going to break a sweat. You know what's all on stage? Yeah, the one time I'm sweating is fucking on stage. Add a boy. Or Jack Hammer. Jack Hammer. Jack Hammer.

Whoops, anyways, moving on. That kind of jackhammer. What? We're talking about the actual power tool. You see when people are building shit. Or breaking shit, actually, not building anything.

They're breaking the sidewalk. Yeah, it's like a foundation, you know, like we're like bust out the concrete in the background and lay turf or anything. You gotta go under a jackhammer, break it all up and remove the fucking earth and concrete. See, that sounds awful. But I want to like everyone,

I want to do a jackhammer for real for like 10 seconds. It blows up your forms. And then I'd be like, all right, I'm cool. I'm done. I don't know if you guys ever rode motorcycles, but when you're hauling ass over, like they call it a whoop section. Yeah.

It's basically like the horse in your little kid, but like fastest fuck heavy in your form. It's called arm pump. I love these fucking drinks, man. So, I love them. One of these drinks just made me feel all giddy. They're all refreshing.

One of them. Yeah, they're fucking sick. Yeah, this is number two for me. It's pretty good, right? You're driving, so. Appreciate it. So have you guys ever been into a fight at a show? Like, you just went for the show and a fight busted up?

Oh, my God. Who's this for Nick? Thank you. I appreciate that. Nick, we're in a heavy metal band. We've seen hundreds of fights. Two shows. It was a thing.

I'm very blessed and lucky that I got, I live right down the street from the showcase theater. Right over here is legendary venue. Enamosis played there. a lot of bands big, small I mean so like like we would play there

and like you had to like stop the show and then they turn the fucking house lights on white and then decide to break up with this fucking fight it's crazy

and then there's just I forgot I forgot what show it was um I was standing on the steps I think like part of her Corona

was playing old school fucking hardcore yeah old school hardcore and then you know when like something happens and it just stays with you forever.

It's so vivid. I was thinking about that the other day. Yeah. It's so weird. I remember that was by a far than the most vivid fight I ever seen there where it's like, it broke out and it was like, okay, this is violent. Yeah. This isn't like a fight.

Oh, you break it up. It's all cool. They kept going at it. And it was on the steps. So the steps are basically connecting to the stage. Yeah. And then just looking down and like, dude, this is. This is like, all right.

This goes beyond the crew of shit. This is like people were, they're fucking fighting. So it's the Royal Rumble? Multiple people or a one-on-one? Yeah. Royal Rumbles, pretty much. And plus, like,

to even add to that is that the whole thing back then was a majority of people there, including myself, but the whole like straight-edge hardcore scene. So it's not drunk fighting. These motherfuckers are pissed.

So all sober is fuck. Angst. Angst. And fucking fighting, dude. Yeah. The sober shit is definitely, uh... It's not sloppy.

It's like, it's like, it's like, it's like, it's real, No, it's like seeing two people fighting on a video game, but their powers all the way up. Yeah. It's not like halfway.

There's no... Like Ozzy Man reviews fights, but really sloppy fighting the street after a pub. Yeah, dude, the showcase is where I saw so many fights. That was a violent venue. Yeah. How many shows have you been to there, actually? Me? I mean, I've probably played about five there, but I've been to, like, I've been to shows there, too.

Like, yeah. Like, I swear, like, sometimes animosity would be play there. and like we'd stay there for an extra day Cheers my brothers We'd be there We'd be there the Love ADK Salute

Cheers babe We'd be there the night before sometimes And there was a show the night before So we'd get to just go and watch So sick I remember seeing like I want to say sworn enemy And Casey Strain played there together

Something crazy And like that was very brutal show Lorenzo was fucking throwing down In the hallway all through Yeah we parted with him in Vegas for the UFC. Lorenzo. Lorenzo was thrown down in the hallway

and that dude, I don't know if he likes to fight, but he's down to fight. Does he know how to fight? He's fucking in New York, dude. He's ready to go. He's ready to go. Shout out, shout out, man. We fucking love him so much. The guy was cool as fucked.

I remember Tom, Ashley, and Jesse were fighting in UFC. We were at Team Mobile Arena and we were chilling with him. Yeah. He sounds like a Matt Serer. Like he's an East Coast. Oh, yeah, he's cool as fuck. And I was, hey, you'll buy your beer. He's an auto drink, man.

Oh, yeah, he quit drinking him while back. Yeah, now I really wouldn't want to fight him ever. But now, especially, you'd even be more scary. There was this fucking one time we, it was our first time ever on a, like, a tour bus. And we were sharing with, I don't know who by idea this was, we were sharing the bus with sworn enemy. You guys didn't know them. No. I knew before you guys did that tour.

but then when I found out you guys were sharing a bus Go on Yeah Go on Yeah anyways Alex We're fighting on the bus Alex M.E.

Turn 21 on that tour We both became complete Alcoholics To every level We started drinking For the first time in our lives On that tour got drunk as fuck They taught us how to tour

And Rest in peace Polly They're a drummer Great guy man I went to my bunk Scared Because him

And they came like, and I don't like another fucking scuffle. I'm like, oh my God. What the fuck is going on, dude? To be a fly in the wall and fucking watching that.

I wish you were a fly out of the wall with me and Mitch pretty much almost got in a fight. We threw the back and cleaner out each other. You did a vacuum cleaner out here. Back and forth? Yeah. What motherfucker? Oh man. So where the vacuum cleaner come from on a bus?

Wait, was a little handy one or a full fucking vacuum? No, it was a full on vacuum. It was a vacuum. He found a vacuum and threw it at Dan Candy. Yeah, that's like some hoax shit. I threw it back at him. I was all, I was all mad. He got all mad and then I was confused

and then I got all mad and then, man. I'm so glad we did it like fight each other for real, for real, for real. Yeah, I was suck, man. Fight your, fight your bro sucks, man. D.K. You get this look on your face when there's like like a conversation. You get like this. I'm pissed. I'm not. I'm a pissed. You're just like. You're just, but you're pissed but chill at the same time. Yeah.

You're so pissed but you're so chill. Like that then impossible tightrope balance. Man. You, you, you fucking get there. I love it. I hate getting pissed. I miss it. Such a waste of energy. Yeah, it is. That's why. That's why I swear to God. That's why I figured out what to drink and how to drink it.

Drink straight tequila now. I don't know how to go about that That makes me happy And then celters Cool You give me some whiskey You give me some Budwisers I turn into a puncherback

I turn into a puncherback I'm gonna start calling Why is this puncher back talking I'm gonna start calling you all the bad words And saying shit about everything Yeah it's not a good I drink whiskey So you turn into Curshaw with whiskey

Your Change Tren Clayton Kirchall And I'll throw things out you As fast as I can Nice Nice nice Dude that was a sick fight Huh

What? Which one? The one we just saw it two years ago Yeah That whole card was sick as fuck, you UFC, UFC 259. Yes, yes. D.K., thank you for the clarification of that number.

Three title fights, amazing. Three title fights on one card. Sometimes they put together cards or just like, how do you do such a fucking stacked card? Yeah. They are professionals at that, dude. They are. They did the three title fights, though, that,

I mean, they could do those three fights, no problem. But if it was another fighter, that had the belt, like, like, let's say Connor's the champion. There doesn't need to be another belt in the line. But this one, it's like, okay, now you're going to put three, that means I have to bite. Of course.

Yeah, you have to. And then they can check at the price. Yeah, it's like, it's like, uh, Disneyland. Disneyland's opening up, huh? Yeah. That's the rumor. Music, uh, food festival coming up.

Kind of like how Notch has the Boysenberry Fest. Disney's doing the same thing. Can't go on the rides, but he'd go around the whole park and eat and shit. That's lame as far away. I'll fucking do it. I personally enjoy. You can go to the fucking place, but you can't write any of the rides. That's like going to a concert, but you can't hear any of the music.

Can't hear the music. You can chill at the venue. You have to wear your headphones that are mute out you, but you're like looking at the band, like, I think they're rocking. I've seen something where it's like a mute party where people have monitors on and there's no music and they're like, you know, interpretive that shit. Yeah. I mean, I want to know, like, the lady who does the sign language for the Lamb of God and she. shit like that, what he's saying? Like, what, deaf people are even going to concerts

anyways? And how many are there? They have to fill the resonance from the... They can fill that. They do, I'm sure. Yeah, they probably have high-end senses, you know, I would imagine. Well, do you remember when we were in Big Bear and what, Derek? Derek, yeah. Came out and he was just like,

do you mind if he would write on his phone for me, because he couldn't speak to me, but he'd say, do you mind if I lean on your base cabinet while I watched your, watch Alex. Yeah, he wants to fill it. I'm like, yeah, they laying down my bass cabinet. We just started playing yellow or something, whatever. Yeah. And he's like just, like, you feel my bass set on his back and watch Alex play.

He was just like, I was like, damn, that feels good. That's cool, man. I was like, that's one really cool memory I have from music, for sure. That's awesome. Yeah. That's beautiful, actually. Yeah, that whole month was a blur. We made it blurry.

Yeah, there was a, we made a collection of handles of bottles of Smirnoff. Yeah, that was my, that was Smirnoff. How many can we get? Smiranoff days. we have if you wanted If people like You know a lot of people brag about how much they drink

You know If you wanted to go there If you want to brag about your shit We can beat you Because we We were like I don't even Dude

We went up there We went up to write an album We wrote like three rap songs And then we wrote like A few sick riffs And that's it Yeah I thought me and Nicole went harder Clearly

I know Dick and he was fucking harder Dude We were getting bored of drinking vodka so we would come up with new ways to drink it. We'd like mix it with peppercini juice. We would take a shot with like Tabasco in it.

And then we'd take a shot. We started making double shots with fucking emergency powder in it. It's just... This is healthy. You were like, this healthy, dude. That's what all was drinking in Vegas. I brought my ninja blender.

Try snorting in emergency. You see what happens if you might grow extra veins coming out of your arms. You won't get sick for a year. I forget what tour you guys just got. off but I talked to him and I'm like dude you got to mom you know Ashley you know JT was there before he was there yeah but I was like you know team quest dude you like roll out you got to roll him good for bigs all you got to do is go with us talk them into it I had my ninja

blunder spinach kill cucumber celery my vegan this guy man pre-workout but instead of water teel vodka and I was in the gym every morning at 6 a.m. pounding that getting fucked up working out you're drinking it and the gym I never seen it in my life too or even heard it but this guy was getting up we're all hung over right and fucking and this guy gets up on time like, dude, you want to get up, it's time to go to gym. This guy's fucking putting

pre-workout and water. Vegan pre-workout. There's no earth-based shit. All plant-based. Water, water, pre-workout, and vodka. And going to gym. Like, what are you doing, dude? It's 6 a.m.

I was sweating out the night before vodka. Actually, I was going to bed early from getting shot, dude. Oh, okay. I didn't say, I don't gamble, so I was going to bed early and I was like, boom, like, you know. Hey, that's a fucking chant.

Yeah. That's the difference between me and you. lose all my money and go to bed at 4 a. Or don't go to bed. No, a funny story. You guys talk about what's his name? Lorenzo fighting on the fucking bus. My buddy Jeff, he went to the Wayans at the Monte Carlo and then Keith

Keith Berry fucked up his ankle and he was staying in the room. So me and guards are come back to the hotel room and his buddy from Vegas is there. And I guess that guy was a mutual friend of Keith and Jeff. But when Jeff comes back to the room, Jeff pushes me out of the way, walks right to him, gets him in a tie clench and just fucking folds this guy in half. I heard the life go out of this guy.

This guy literally bowed, dropped on the floor in the hotel room. The war beast is a tall guy. It's fucking ground and pounding him. The war beast, he fucking earned that. I heard you called me a Jew. No, and then keep grabs him. K word.

Yeah, K-Y, K-E. K word. Bad word. I don't know, but not a K-I-K-U. Jew is not even a bad word. No, but he said kike. Oh, okay. And I, and right away, I was like,

Jeff, what are you doing? He's like, I didn't even know what Jeff is that Jewish? Definitely enough to make him mad Yeah Dude he was so hardcore And like just seeing like You were in the room too I was chilling the room like

I'm hanging out He just got to stop him like what the fuck And I'm hanging with this guy Just just just met fucking five minutes ago And then the war beast I'm known for a long time This fucking runs in Doesn't say a damn word Gives him a fucking knee

So I pound him And I was like It was pretty impressive Yeah it was very impressive Yeah it was good form actually I was like You put that moment with me and Mitch, and Lorenzo and Polly,

all those little moments of your life, I'd love the type of compilation. We could just watch it right now. That would be a highlight video. We could just laugh our ass off. Because, I mean, no one got seriously injured in any of the stories we're talking about.

So that makes it better. The guy, his pride got hurt. Oh, his pride. What she needed. You get the wind knocked out of you. I heard it. He was like taking a fastball right right below the freaking sternum, the solarplex isn't.

Yeah, no thanks, dude. Yeah. So, initially, I was... Noted, don't ever use that Well, initially I was like, Jeff, what are you doing? This your buddy. And when Jeff turned around and told me that, inside, part of me was like, you know, locked the door with stump this motherfucker because I'm like racist and all

I bullied shit. I hate that shit. But I always like, we're growing up adults. And I was playing, you know, referee like, all right, dude, he said he's sorry. Let him Jeff's like whatever. Just get out of the room. So the guy dipped up. On the way out, the guy was like, I'll see you around.

And I was like, okay, bring him back in here. Let's put this for this. I do. Everyone who listens to this too definitely has stories from their life like this. And they'll understand. They'll understand. Yeah, just the awkwardness to when your adrenaline goes up from seeing it, you're just going, holy shit, this is weird.

I love that feeling. But you can't get that feeling anywhere else. It's real. Raw and uncut. It's raw and uncut, dude. That's why immediately he was like, what the fuck? And right away, Keith grabbed him around the waist and pulled him back. And I was like, Jeff, what are you doing?

This is your buddy. And when he said that, I was like, all right, let's get him. Did you think they were pretending at first? No, that need was 100% the real fucking deal. He didn't need him. Like, I saw the guy's life bar. go down and like his soul pop out the window you need him so hard like the Charlie move your front kick the fucking knees a fucking wreck this dude

that's a beautiful knee because the guy was expecting this shit can't boom ready a fucking bull hit him right and pull this turrum Jeff's a big dude and the guy is the guy is a big guy yeah just big dude and the guy wasn't I don't want to need from him I'll tell you that I don't want to need from anybody well you guys came in the train that you guys would see them all the way I'm like I just o lay it defle it oh you could just if someone's walking at you that way You know that's real

Dude, every time I go to talk shit online Like I know I'm about to say something I type it out and I go What am I doing? I'm an idiot I can't say like Hey man this fucking shit sucks Because I take it to heart

You're like when I was a little kid My sister was babysitting this guy And he was like your mama And I was like I love him Boom hit him and he fell in his He landed on the pedal of his bicycle Oh He hit him right in the spine

So, like, now it's like, okay, because I had to defend myself once, you know, not in competition. Because, like, you know, I did it for physical therapy. You know, I still do it just to stay young and today. healthy. But yeah. I asked my friends, a lot of cops trained, a lot of officers swat everything, ice, everything. And I was like, at what point can someone that trains defend themselves? So, like, you need to, someone needs to, like, assault you. So you have to defend yourself. But once you defend yourself and you stop the initial assault after that, then that's you get in trouble because you know what you're doing. Sure. But if, like, so let's say like the dude on Friday

night, he swung at me and I just slipped it and I just hit him one behind the ear. And he felt that. And he was like, oh, I never felt that before. And he was. Okay, I'm cool, I'm cool. Yeah, yeah. I could walk. It's a humbling thing. The cops can see that and be like, oh, you know, this guy defend himself. I didn't follow up and there's no aggravated assault.

If I were like the other guy where they had to put plates on his face back in the remember that shit? Yeah. For a vaguerrella when you came down at a brother's house? Yeah. Plates on his face? Yeah. Like dinner plates?

Uh, screws and, I don't know, like all this crushed it on his face because his head was against the ground. Oh. I had him. He swung. I slipped it. I hit him once. He was out and I should have stopped there. That was self.

fence. When I talked to my cop friends, they were saying, okay, so his feet were in the air. So when he hit the ground he woke back up with his feet in the air. And I pushed his feet up. That is called, that is called overkill. Yeah. But when you're in the moment and you're a tone repeatedly, I don't want to fight. We're just broling down and now you're, you know, won the fight.

So it's, you know, now I'm a little older. You know, it's, it's weird as fuck. I love cage fighting MMA so much, but I don't really like real fighting in the streets already. Yeah, I hate it, dude. Yeah. I like the sport of it. I don't like the violence of it. I guess I do like the violence of it because I'm trying to see knockouts here.

In competition. For sport. Yeah. In real life it's like... And these guys are getting money. They're not doing it for free on the streets. Yeah, exactly. I'm like, hey, they're supporting their family because they're good and they're tough people. Of course. When they fight in the streets, it's out of anger, out of pride and out of freaking ego. Yep. Sure. So it's nice seeing them

get humbled, but yeah, I don't like street fights at all. No, dude. So it's crazy how how drawn we are to like, as D.K. just said, like, we're so drawn to watching the UFC. We secretly want to see a knockout. Of course. Oh, yeah.

There's just something about it that gets you fucking pumped, which is why I'm so, you know, like... It's because we're cavemen at heart, dude. It's like going to hockey games. 100%, but I mean like... When the dugouts empty, you're like, everyone stands up.

I bet you anything. If we were our age or younger or whatever, back in the day when they had the lions fighting people and shit... And they'd call the same? Yeah, we'd watch. For sure. Yeah, yeah.

Now, you tell me that's gonna happen? I'm gonna stay home. I don't want to see that. You don't want to see that? Don't want to see that. That's way too brutal for me. But back then, life was just more brutal.

Well, there's Methodors that the bullfighters. See, I think that's the dumb shit in the world. When the bulls win, though, it's like, that's what you get. You roll the dice with the freaking mother nature. Bulls got fucking horns, and he's pissed off. Yeah, people die like every other year from that shit. Yeah. Getting the horn in the stomach or the horn in the mouth.

That's a dumb thing to support to me. I don't even know. How much do you get paid, do you think? There's documentaries on it. Not enough. Hey, you want to have this bull running to you full speed? No, thanks, dude. Well, it's like in Pample.

blown to Spain, dude. They're all running from the bull and there's a lady out there saying the bull's our friend and the bull fucking just wrecks her and she goes ragdolling like three cart rolls in the air and it's fucking up in the corner and the people that are you know they're wearing the white gowns with the red thing. They're trying to show the red and the bull to get him off her.

The bull's going to be a fucking bull to my life. I like that fucking meme vegan meme or it's like cows are our friends and then the guy goes yeah? Tell me that cow's name. Tell me where he's Tell me where he's from.

How good friends are you? Do you know his mom? What the fuck? I mean, that lady who said, Cal's our friend and got stabled by the Bulls. I bet she's not holding those signs anymore.

Not during burning the Bull, that's her damn sure. She's not going back to that thing either. She's having nightmares about it. Dude, that thing is, I would be, look out of window and watch Saturday guests and just be like,

these people are crazy. That's something I would never do ever. It's on people's, some people's bucket list, I'm sure. No. Not mine. Not mine. Bulls hurt, dude.

It's like ghost ride and a motorcycle into somebody with fucking spiky things at the end of it. Fuck that. What the hell? That's what a fucking bull is, dude. Oh, yeah.

That's kind of what it is. Yeah. Okay, I get your analogy now. I thought you're talking about a real thing. No. Some people just get a motorcycle? The weight of ghost riding a motorcycle into somebody and just taking them out,

that's a bull running at you. But it knows where he's going. It's aiming at you. Sure. Fuck that. Nick, you have the best analogies, dude. They're great.

Are they on point? Yeah. All right, cool. You have the best and our drummer Alex has the weirdest. Yeah, where it is, but sometimes they fucking hit you. Like, yes, that's a good one. You're like, fuck yeah.

Yeah, dude. Shout out, Alex. I think that's the only way Alex can understand something sometimes. In analogies? Yeah, he makes up his own analogy and then he understands it. And if I don't understand it, he'll say an analogy, I'll be like, oh, okay. Well, yeah, because you see a critical thinking, people are like, what? They can't relate to it.

You say it as an analogy, you speak it, and then they're like, oh, I can relate to that. And if it's funny, it's even better. It's fucking perfect timing. Big analogy fan over here. Big analogy fan. Yeah, that's like, that's the fucking gold. in combination if it's like the way if you can make someone else understand it

but it's also funny. Comedy is the best way to get through a person. Of course. That's the best way. Yeah, you go through the funny bone. Yeah. Because who doesn't like to laugh? Of course. Yeah, you open someone's soul when you make someone laugh, man. That's fucking cool. Man, these celtzers get me going, dude. They're good, dude. They're great. I swear. Good call instead of the HGIPs. Great call. Yeah,

it's way better. I'm all heavy and like tired. Some fat. Zero sugar, dude. Yeah? Zero sugar? I I'm hammered, dude. I had one and a half seltars, dude. I don't think I could drive home. I'll be able to walk home, Nick.

No, we'll smash some pizza, so we're up, dude. Dude, what do you guys, what do you guys think? What's next for Izzy? Oh, just go back down and own your division. He stays in the Wolverine. Just run your division, dude. He tried to double category. He was talking about going up to two of five.

Get that up in the fight John Jones, a heavyweight. fuck no go back down at 185 and just own that shit and be trying to be the best try to be the one best 185 be better than Anderson's stuff like you know yeah yeah just keep crushing good ass people you'll be considered the best

yeah I mean he stepped up to the plate that respect for that for damage to your bill that's a different freaking size B I like how I like how Joe Rogo was like yeah and you used to fight at 185 right he goes no I've been 205 my whole life Jen? Yeah or yon yeah

fucking Yeah, that's a big dude Yeah When he weighed in he flashed I was like Fuck even him like malnourge And like if he had a cut weight Which everyone does That fight was was cool

It was fun It was better than I thought it was gonna be actually I thought it was gonna be Either easy gets knocked out Or it's just gonna be a tag him up points But it was it was pretty interesting man That was a good fight What about Nuneus and Anderson

Dude So good Is that what you expected? Yeah I didn't think that quick dude I bet a little bit of money on Megan just because the odds. Of course.

But then when you lose your bet like that, you're like, that's fine, that's fine, take my money. I'm an idiot. Like that,

of course. Well, because you know you're rolling the dice because like the odds are so heavily against her. That if you win, that's awesome. Yeah.

Chances of it happened are very slim. My dumb ass is like, oh, she just had a kid. She's going to be at home a lot, not trained. Oh, she birthed the kid. No,

she didn't justify it. Oh, but she, justify your wife. I try to justify my thinking, right? The stats. And then I was like,

yeah, her wife had a kid. She's at home. She's not training as much. After the fight, she's like, you know how I'm the lion? Well, I just, the lion, I have a cub now. I'm even more scarier now. I fucking kill you. Yeah, now you show the claws. Now she's the claws and the things.

I was like, whoa. Yeah, she's right. Now that she has a kid, she's going to fight even more brutal. Even harder because now she's got a kid to take her. Rather than just be chained. There's nobody to fight her at all. Dude, it was so cool to see. She is a special woman, dude. Just a, wow.

just seeing her perform and execute like that, that's insane. She finishes. Unbelievable. Like most women, a lot of people

don't like watching women fight because a lot of them go to a decision. Of course. Manna just doesn't go to decision. She doesn't go to the decision. She doesn't go. Whether knock them out or choke them out. She's good, dude.

Or technically knock them out. Which is, they want to be out of there also, too. But also, they're going to turn her around quick, too. She's going to fight. They're going to fight, probably Julianna Pena really soon. Yeah.

Oh, yeah, I saw that. Yeah, because she didn't take no damage I mean, she broke a sweat in that first round And this bull and got her out of there She was fine I like seeing Megan go up to them and hug the baby I love that part I was like I thought she was hot

That made her even fucking hotter I was like fuck you out of you Adder boy If I saw Is it true? She looks like a Valkyrie dude Just like one of the Valkyries I don't know

I don't know what that is Megan Anderson I saw Rose is going to fight someone next She's fighting Walee Yeah really For the championship yeah Dang How's Ashley's neck

I remember you were talking during the fights about her surgery. She's got more time, but she's going to get better. She was good. Shout out to our friend, A-D-S. Yep. Ashley is awesome. She looks healthy. She looks ready to go.

It's cool. She's got more, a little more, she got more months of going. She can't go to the gym for a while, but, yeah. Man, that's got to be crazy. It's just like any other sport, dude. Like, baseball players, they get taken out for, like, a season because of their shoulder. Yeah. And then they have to wait for the off-season, and then they can come back next season.

That's crazy that at least with fighting, there's no fucking seasons, you know? Like, you come back when you're ready. Like, there's no, like, time off. That's the sickest thing about the sport. It's like, every weekend almost. Yeah, there's a, you got fighting, you got wrestling, you got music. There's really no season. You're just fucking all year-round, you're around fucking gliding.

How sick was that, though, sorry to interrupt, but how sick was that during COVID when everything was like off? Like, everything just walked down to the UFC. He was like, fuck that. We're putting some fights. Yeah, we're so cool. We're going to make a fucking island. Right?

Yoss Island. So sick. You can't really... They helped me out big time to look forward to something. Of course. Gave people hope, you know, very grateful for that. It gave people hope,

seeing people knock shit out or the fuck out or chucking out. Basically, you're telling me, I got to play board games all week. Right? Until Saturday. And then I get to watch something. That's it, dude.

Order pizza, some beers and movies. We got the whole NFL season. That was great. Nice. It's still weird to me that seeing football games or fighting with the whole crowd like when the crowds come back

it's gonna be I'm turning that TV up dude yeah and I'm gonna hear that crowd roar or hear them boo it's like going to monster again they're gonna be doing the wave in the audience the whole time people were in the fucking hate oh people are gonna be so saddened dude Dana White's already trying to get back in Texas yeah he's talking about Texas man

your stadium still too soon yeah I think that's when like obviously like it takes that craziness to make that first leave to where he's successful he's been successful the past year but I think that that's when you cross the line. I know you're going to try it, but that's probably it is too soon. I mean, you're talking like a worldwide

and national ability to get to prep and get all the vaccines out and then see what it does. Yeah, I think you should at least wait a little longer. Yeah. I mean, when I say a little, I'd be like six to eight months longer. Yeah. He's thinking, when he heard the Texas open up, he was already on the phone.

He's all in there, yeah. Yeah, I heard. I heard him to talk of the post-conference, which, I mean, I get it. Somebody's got to be the first to do it. But he wants to be the first to do everything. He's a very driven man. The very first sport was combat.

What do you guys think about the fake crowd noises during, like, a game? I only really hear it during baseball. And sitcoms. It's all over. When the comedians do their monologue? Oh, they do it? I think they do it in, I don't know if they do it in basketball. I don't even know if they did

they did it in football I think really football yeah they do yeah yeah is that for the players or for the audience what I don't understand it's for the audience and I don't even know if I want to know if the players can hear it because it might make them feel more normal to play but fighting they don't see for in me

it works they work fighting they don't in me I want to ditch I want to hear my fucking corner everything they're saying because that's my third and fourth pair of eyes outside of what I see as a fighter you get to hear your corner I like as a as a fucking as a fan But I fight. At a fan, we get to hear the corner too. Of course. Well, pretty cool.

Yeah, my, damn, you can hear his corner. See, like, when all this COVID stuff happened, like, when you'd hear, like, a liver kick, like, deep in the body, like, you can't hear that unless you're in the cage or you're the corner right there. Out of that, it gets drowned out with the freaking sound of the audience. Yeah. It gets resonated with it. It gets filtered out. So, like, when the fights are there, and the only the mic,

the overhanging mic and side mics, when you hear those punches, you're like, damn, that really fucked. You can see how, in respect it a little bit more. Even a stiff jab, you know, rip, you know, rip a first. freaking cheekbone or something. Yep. I love fighting. Love it.

I love fighting because I'm like, fuck yeah. Like, that's our, you know. I don't know how, I obviously have been into UFC like since you've known me.

Yeah, you've always been like a big UFC guy. We started getting the UFC fights because you're all like, let's get the fight. We're like, why? Yeah. Why is it so cool?

It's like glorified boxing? And then, oh yeah, we started getting on the tour of us. Yeah. Yeah. And then you got us all, then now we're all hooked.

Yeah. I mean, I mean, just pretty much just me, you and Eddie. you think, but Alex doesn't care. He doesn't care.

Mark either? Mark is just like, I just want to chill. Yeah, Mark's like, he'll watch it. He'll watch it. He wants to, you know,

it's a social event where all hanging out being friends. Mark, he could write down 10 fighters' names, I think. Yeah.

Yeah. Well, like when Eddie was down, he would come to me to the gym. He came to team quest or Dan Haynham had Dan Henderson's

Athletic Fitness Center, you know? Yeah, dude. Eddie came out a few times. Eddie's girlfriend. Eddie's girlfriend is like obsessed. That's why he calls his girlfriend

The female Dan Kenny I'm like I'm like Because sometimes we talk to each other I'm like It's like talking to myself About scraps We talk about scraps

Fucking pretty much She's basically talking about scraps She does a lot of shit As soon as the prelim start She's watching every single one She's like what do you think of fucking You know Blah blah blah blah

I'm like damn Makes total sense I'm like you know All these people Just like I do Yeah she's super into it That's right Some people are like

it's not Asperger's something else It's just like when you're so hooked on something And you just want to know everything about it Ecclectic? I don't know It's kind of like how I have certain categories Certain categories

I just know like So much shit about it you know Which like I could have just learned about other stuff too But I'm all right I don't just stick to my lanes Like you know 10 times more fires than I know dude It's like

It's a dorky thing that I My girlfriend thinks I'm such a nerd but hey, if it makes me happy, fuck us. Exactly. If you own that nerd, if you're passionate about it. And I'm the lucky guy who gets to watch it every weekend. That's what I'm saying. Yeah.

Yeah, dude, you're passionate about it. It's not the wrong with that at all. You're passionate about you enjoy it. It's always there for me. Unless it gets banned for some reason, which it won't. No, no. Dana Wyn will find a way. They'll be underground fights, dude.

He'll have fights on the fucking moon if he can. Seriously. On Mars, he'd be. So, do you hear about, here's a topic of conversation. Did you hear about WWE making new rules today? No. There's no more chair shots. Really?

Oh, no. To the head, to the head. Okay. That's like the worst. The head shots were the best part. There's no more slapping your leg when you can't kick someone. You know, when you like, when Sean Michaels would sell the kick. When you kick Rick Fleur in the face.

And you hear like a smack. You can't do that anymore. No more sweet chin music? You can kick, but you can't make the slap noise anymore. No more sweet chin muses. And then also I heard they're toning down the sexiness of the ladies. Oh, God.

Again. California sucks, man. I don't do the take a movie. Take that shit in Texas. None of those rules have. They're like, kick their hat off, dude. Kick the girl's hot. If they don't want to be hot, let him be hot.

Who is the fuck? WWE's getting more water down than it already was. Yeah. And then fucking, Disney is taking shit off there because of shit. Yeah. Dr. Seuss.

It's weird. They're letting no events of anyone. I don't get to fuck. Live your life. nor disrespect anyone, but they're letting all the pussies get away with fucking everything. It's like, no, dude, like, with life, there's like, it comes back good or bad,

and either way, you've got to deal with it. Yeah. I can see how some shit's offensive, and it's like, all right, yeah, yeah, pull that. You know, definitely pull that. I mean, how many people are, one out of a hundred people are sensitive to that or something, maybe? One out of a thousand?

I guess, I don't know. I can go on for days about this, but that shit sucks. I'm trying to see a slap kick. I'm trying to see some chair head shots. But good thing. That's what I'm saying. Good thing I can still watch some old shit.

Mike Gossaman. You take it off the network, though. I'm gonna be pissed. Yeah. Any mankind matches? I'm gonna be very upset. How many times did Frick and Undertaker launch him off that cage? Three?

Two. Oh, it's two. Two. Fucking wrecked this shit. I loved you. Oh, it's just like, literally like last month, like going on YouTube, listening to interviews of both McFoly and Undertaker talking about that hell and his soul match. Yeah. So fascinating.

You had both of their head spaces. Mick Foley, by far, his mental. Where he was at in that moment, like just, oh, amazing. Didn't his Keith go through his roof on the second one? McPholy is a fucking legend. I hope he, dude, I was just watching his last ECW matches the other day. I know. Go on this guy is fucking insane.

Mike Cuttin out. He's like the Mike Metzger of freaking wrestling. Like Mike Metzger had took so many injuries being like the godfather, freestyle motorcross. That's, oh yeah. For sure. Dude, I hope that he got fucking bonused out or something, dude. Had to.

Had to. Because his daughter wrestled right, so I didn't mean, Yeah. No, his daughter doesn't wrestle. She doesn't wrestle. I heard she's hot, though. She's very good looking. It's Rick Flare's daughter.

Rick Flare's daughter. Yeah, she's, she's Charlotte. Charlotte. She's a specimen. Have you heard the, what, how Vince always had like, Rick Flores back? I heard that he didn't always have his back.

Really? Yeah. Because he would go from WCW back to WBF, back to WCW, back to WBF. Because WCW was Turner, right? Yeah, Ted Turner. Yeah. I heard something like Rick Flare was injured

and like Vince was always calling. I'm going to see if he was alright, something like this was pretty recent, I think. I'm sure Vince has this fucking fish, fish bowl of the certain people who really cares about.

For sure. Like, all the pioneers of the sport. I would think Andre the Giant Dead for damn sure. I mean, sure. I don't know. There's also certain,

like, fighters that are probably close-knitted with Dana and text and stuff, but there's also fighters that don't text with Dana. Of course. Yeah. Like,

there's also, there's probably wrestlers that, like, they could call Vince without feeling weird. Of course. Or text them, yeah.

And then, But some wrestlers are probably like, oh, I'm scared of the boss. I go through my agent to talk about it. Yeah, I told my agent to talk to him. But you know it's those moments where like, even though you're scared of texting them, like, it's Texan. Yeah. Text him. That was like at your 30th birthday when Hendo fought, what's the name?

Not Mark Hart, but. Tim Boche. Tim Boch. I was texting him. Hey, dude. The headbangers want to see a knock on. Knock him the fuck. K-N-F-O.

He texts back. That's why he said, thanks, bro. I did. Ha-ha. And I was sick. I did knock him out. But go, dude, that guy hit so fucking hard. Thank God I didn't eat one of his punches

The whole time I was like sweating balls Oh fuck he's watching me train No thanks man No thanks Yikes Good dude You went to a couple of the pig rust with me We parted over just bad

Hell yeah I invited this guy too We slept at his house Yeah I woke up in the living room I woke up like kind of like the movie The Hangover At Dan Henderson's house He's shoot by the jeezonson

He's a huge house And I wake up and I wake up in his living room It's got nice ass couches All this shit I wake up kind of like The guy's deer smaddled up Kind of like the hangover Where I'm looking around like

but I'm all like still kind of like in my head all over I'm like my first thought is where the fuck am I right now like and then I'm like oh yeah oh yeah I slept the damn headers his house yeah hell yeah he's like hey guys I know want some breakfast

that was that was a fun 80s a Halloween party oh yeah dude it's like you win at Ultimate Warrior I went as Batman thinking we're going to be the Avengers or not the Avengers Justice League Tom and Stephanie Tom Colicchio Stephanie's wife they were like, yeah, we're going to be

Superman and Wonder Woman. And then Sam Malvey text me and he's like, yo, dude, I want to get Justice League on luck. I'm going to be another character. I went out and bought that freaking costume for that reason. I go there, no one's dressed up as Justice. I'm like, you're like, you're bastards. They did. Pull the prank, like always.

Dude. Love those dudes. That's a good memory. I think Sam has a fight coming up at the end of the month. Ashley, Yoder, Spider Monkey. She fights this week and against Angela Hill. And then Sam has a fight at the end of the month. And I got a friend getting ready for the ultimate fighter because they're bringing that show back. I can't say who because he's sworn a secrecy,

but one of my homies is going. You tell me in the car. It could be. Now, when I say homie, that's freaking, you know, non-gender, it's neutral. I have, I have friends. I have a feeling I know who it is. Of course you do. Yeah.

Yeah, no other show's coming back. They're going to have all the fights at the apex again. Yeah, of course. Nice. My buddy, Keith, you guys know Keith. He just competed in Eddie Bravo as the high rollers in Vegas. So let me get this straight. I was able to go out there in the nearest corner.

They make you smoke weed and then you have to do jit-to-git-to-against somebody? Yeah. Everyone's just getting high. You have to be high? Like, I think if you don't smoke, they make sure that you and your opponent, okay, rip this. Okay. And then now go to-r-r-goat. When are they doing shit-face boxing?

That's what I want to do. It's called Bear and Uncle Bach. They do it in fucking UK. I watch our shit on YouTube all the time. Yeah, I love that shit. Those guys are fucking crazy. One guy comes in and he's like Mickey from fucking snatch. They're like propping them up after a week, you know?

And he's just going there, they're fighting into a bunch of fucking haybells. I love watching that shit. I'm like, fuck, yeah, dude. Yeah, but high jiu-jitsu. It's just like... It's the best, dude. I remember being a kid and smoking a bunch of weed, and we went to the track for some reason by my high school,

and I was running, I was running and running and I kept running. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And I kept fucking eating shit and falling. On the sand? I gave it a hurt, but I was just like, ever since then, I don't know how people could drive cars don't know. can do like like yeah not even like driving is simple sure

yeah but stone I can't even fucking make a hard boiled egg stone you know back before you saw it had made a United States anti-doping agency before they made weed off the freaking list of banned substances you know like everyone knows for sure Nick D has got popped like

five year suspension which was bullshit yeah my buddy Fernando Gonzalez got the same thing when he was scrapping in Bellator you know the Mnifamaniac yeah like oh you know he's not taking steroids like oh weed it's like dude weed, if anything, is not a freaking fight. Yeah, I know. If anything, it's going to slow you down.

It makes you... It makes you more methodical. It's like grabbing a Rubik's Cube, and you're like, if you're lit, you're like, all right, you're like, this is the fucking path I'm going on. I guess that's a good point. It's true. Like, that's why a lot of stoners play video games

that have a bunch of levels of shit. Of course. Because they'll sit there and... Or play guitar. They'll do it. I've never played a show Stone in my life. Yeah, it's good. Have you? No.

No, I know. I've done a show or completely blacked-down shit. face, don't remember a fucking note, but never stone. Never stone. Dude, there's a show I feel like I got on stage, I played four riffs, and got off stage. I played for like 45 minutes

right there. Nice. I don't remember that. There's nothing to brag about, but holy shit, what, how do I do that? But you get me that hammered wasted, I can't play anything but like suicide songs. I can't play, I can't play Nirvana or fucking Alice of Chay's wasted. I just can't. I don't know why.

You got that deep muscle memory. That's why we fucking practice so much That's why you train so much So like when you're just like Yeah Your body's automatically do it dude You can fucking do it That's why we practice so much

If you could do it like fucking Half asleep almost But yeah it's a weird thing that your brain will do Well there's a guy at the gym He's legally blind He's like ex-military police And something deadied But he's a blue belt

Two stripes and he's legit Because in jihitsu You could honestly put a blindfold on and you can fill the body's, you know, physics, and you could roll through. And if they're trying to sneak something with your eyes, then you can't help that because you've got no vision. But this guy's a legit blue belt, dude, and it's cool.

Damn, blue belt, blind blue belt. Yeah. Have you heard that band? No. Pretty sick band, yeah. Blind blue belt. Really? No, I'm just kidding.

I'm just joking. Good old fucking triple B, man. Triple B. Triple B from Nova Scotia, dude. They're sick. There's two, five big ass death metal looking bees. Is that triple B man? Wow.

Wow, triple bees. Is that triple bluebell? It's that triple black bell? Dude. That would be saying the bees backwards and the giant tee behind it? Dang, dude.

That's what's up. I'm glad that you now you and Cece were saying that you guys want to learn the ground game, you know, because that's like another aspect of martial arts, you know? Because I think you need five

to make a fist of, to be a mixed martial artist. You obviously need boxing, kickboxing, wrestling for Damashor, jih Tijuana, and then just all around like cage tactics.

Yeah. And then that now he'd fucking Yeah, guys, if you want to learn fighting stuff, go to Nick. You want to learn board games? Come on over. I'll teach you all to play all of them. It's why we have good friends. Each person has their own thing.

Oh, dude. Yeah, it's not me. It's who I get my tutelage from. And I'm like, you know, obviously you guys, they know, they all know you guys. It's like that commercial. Kindness. Pass it on. Exactly.

It's like, fucking. Head kicks, passing on. Oh, my God. Card games, board games. Pass it on. Well, because I remember you guys were on tour with Megadette some shit and like it ended quick. And I texted him.

I'm like, yo, what happened? I thought you guys were tipping out. I heard it on the radio. You're really bringing this up right now, motherfucker? No, I'm saying it's like, he was like talking about martial arts, and I was like, yo, coming to the gym and learn from Coach Daniel, and Coach Daniel's son's a headbanger. And I found that out, and we're all at, you know, the whole gym together were at a fight night,

and the kid could give a shit about the fights. He'd been there on his whole life. So he's on his phone, like, yeah, whatever. So I go over and talk to my hair, you can play guitar. And then he's like, yeah, I'm going to, what do you play? He's all a Schechter Avenger. I'm like, oh, that's a metal guitar. I'm on my buddies in George by Schecter

And when I told him Chris he was like That's like my favorite guitarist ever And he runs over to his dad And his dad, he runs back He talks to his dad in French He's French and Portuguese The Juan Leia's from Brazil And then he's like

Tell your friend to come in To the gym for one hour Free Private with my dad To sign my guitar And that's what I was like Yo, you need to come learn from like The man himself, Daniel Verron Yeah yeah

And then not even a month later I get that text where he's like You all I didn't talk about something important That's what he says And I'm like oh fuck What's wrong, right? Then he's on one to come training. I was like, fuck yeah, dude.

With Coach Daniel, too. Coach Daniel, man. That's crazy. Yeah. I got buried so blessed. I mean, now the older I get them more like how lucky we were, dude. That's what I'm saying, dude. That guy's got a fucking resume for days.

Everyone. Everyone. What to honor. That kick that, what's his name? Anderson landed on Vitor and also. The front kick? That teep kick. The one that lets us not even say his name and try to take credit for it.

I'm like, I know exactly what that fucking kick. Yeah, you've done it a million times. With the one Machita did it to Randy? Yep. And then somebody tried to do it to damage. Dan just parroted it off the form. Oh, yeah.

He saw it coming a mile away. That kick is more popular than we think. It's just we don't ever see it in huge fights because people don't get hit with it. It's a quick, it's like the quick uppercut from your foot. Oh, my God, it's insane. I see it throwing all the time now. Like last weekend, I saw it thrown a bunch, but no one was landing it. I think, honestly, this is my, you know, opinion on it.

I think back in the day, we'd always see movies where people would, like, up, hit the nose. Oh, yeah. You go with your brain and kills you? Yeah. So I think people think when you hit with the pat of your foot, if they hit that, they're fucking dunzo. So it's like, you know, aim for the jaw. Yeah, of course.

Shout out to Coach Daniel. Yeah. Yeah, he's head moot-coach in Paris, France at Venom. Is he at France now? Yeah, he's back home. He's in France, huh? Wow. His family's there are there.

One of the sons are here. I think the headbanger he's still on here. Well, we play France. We should try to get his kid at a show. Yeah. Yeah, Alex was a great kid too. Yeah, really cool kid. Super metal head or what?

metal in nice dude i'm so excited to fucking play shows places like france again i'm not the biggest european i'm not the not the biggest fan of being over there being so far away from home but right now dude i'll put me there for three months i'll give a shit i'm down i'm france

i'm down i know i'm out dk let's let's hear what what you really feel about this where when do you think torrent at a full capacity will come back summer of next year. Yeah?

Yeah. I think we still we have over a year to go and some change. They're going to vaccine the world and hopefully I don't even, I mean like there's places like Australia that fucking beaches are packed, no mask, no COVID cases. They're doing some shit right over there, dude. Yeah. They're not trying to push the vaccine. No. I mean, are they or no?

They're not trying to push the vaccine. That's why they're no COVID cases. Dude, nobody, they don't have like any COVID missing. I mean, COVID's real. That's for damn sure. Yeah. Yeah. I think touring world, my guess, would be summer next year.

I was on the same boat as you. That's when I think will come back. And it won't be... Full sale. Full sale tours. Like normal tours that we would do a couple years ago will be happening like that. I hope so, man. I think.

There will be tours happening soon. Like, bands will be doing two weeks of, like, weird places. Yeah, yeah. But not normal, like, you know, not normal month-long tour. I don't think that's happening for a while. Of course. What sucks, because, but I mean, I guess the longer I have to wait, the more exciting it's going to be to get back out there.

It's like, holy shit, I forgot how fucking all this shit works. Imagine how hard that audience is going to go. Just the fans, because look how passionate. You guys are. You guys are the professional musicians, but the fans, I love you guys around the world. You guys are going hard as fuck. And they're in the audience.

There's some fights for sure. There's fucking fits. Hopefully there's dumb. There might be just be just. Hopefully they'll just be hugs to be honest. People will hugging strangers like, can't believe is back. Oh, fucking seeing him,

Shuka, this is great. That would be sick. Yeah. Yeah, dude, I can't wait for just to go to a show either. You know, because I'm a fan first and foremost also.

Yeah, that's what got you. That's what got you to be in the division, right? You're a fan of fucking music. Yeah, I was looking at dates of shows I went to, like,

I saw Cannibal Corpso in Morrid Angel in 2019. I'm like, that was sick ass, that feels so long ago. Was that the, at the observatory? I went to that one,

and San Diego. Oh, yeah, you went to book, right? That was the six. So, Tray's the way. Trey is the way. Shout out to

Trey from Warbid Angel. They're a big influence on suicide zones. And plus Trey being such a pioneer with the semistring, which, I mean, if you look at the days, I mean, them and corn were kind of around the same time where Trey was bringing in the semestring. So such a pioneer ahead of his time. They had to know of each other, too.

I wonder. I mean, yeah. Dino too, shout out. Fear Factory. Yeah, same thing. Yeah. And Olympuskey was there later, I think, but later, yeah.

But damn, like, if you look at the days, do you, like, we got Dino, corn, and a trade does not get enough credit for the time. They were really bringing in the seven-stringing like a new heavy way. Yeah. You know, it's just a shout-out to a, to a tray.

Yeah, I remember I have that Road Runner United DVD and fucking loved it. And then your guys' buddy Dino's on, I don't know him. I remember he was on stage when you had John, JD on here talking about when your rig, your rig fucking, the quad box dropped out. Yeah. And I saw a dino right there.

My rig? Yeah. During the Notfest. Oh, yeah. John's first time working for us. If you've been a fucking musician for long enough as me, you'll stay where your shit dropped out, which time? Yeah, exactly.

I bet it happened a hundred times and then fucking one year. Oh, shit. And then what's wrong with my rig? I don't know. Well, because I saw the run going back in the LED on the... Have you ever seen John Douglas running? You know something's up. Oh, he was power sliding to the...

If you see a power sliding, something's really Oh, I was trying to help him. I'm like, yo, there's no, there's no power going to his great. And he was like, he was like scrambling, like, fuck, blah, blah, trying to pick it. I'm like, I'll step back and not trying to help. That's got to be like the worst anxiety too. I know. If like the band you're working for is playing a pretty big fucking show,

and something breaks or something, I was blessed to be able to roll up to you guys on that stage. I was like, fuck yeah, dude. It's like it's like NASCAR. It's like being in the pit crew and you have like, the less time you fix it, the better you are. that's like me dropping my mouthpiece in the fight and then okay go wash it out in the bucket real quick you're like fuck fuck fuck fuck like real quick

oh like Michael Bisbing did that yeah well people people spit him out on purpose to get that extra five seconds oh or like if you're getting like say I'm getting rocked there's fighters that they're just telling me kick him in the nuts I'll tell you the two you get one get a jail free card to gather your barons and get back out the other the difference is I had never tried for my rig to go out ever of course yeah of course dude that's the worst feeling I hate it so annoying It's like patent from Cannibal Corpse

When his rig would go out I think he got to the point where he's just like Fuck it Keep going No he's just like he just stops playing It just walks off stage Oh shit dude he doesn't give a shit He's like fuck stop working

It's like this fucking sucks It's not working He could He has the worst luck I've ever seen Any guitar player ever His rig just stopping Damn Because in the face of the way

Their rig is it's so simple It's like Okay cable Wa head cab If she goes wrong It's like where do you start Yeah What the fuck is wrong

I started power source And it's always like when we tour with them Soundcheck is always perfect Oh, so sick Of course it is Yeah When you sound check individual But when you get everyone going to once

Boom power drops Maybe that's for sure That's whatever Some shit Yeah my I'm looking at fucking That's the worst thing I have When we were

A tour with them It was such a sick tour Eddie's first US tour With us at the Mayhem With corn and cannibal On the same lineup I think we We were

You know There was a After party We're fucking Ogeny Ham And then I had the balls to talk to a Pat the dude because because we also had off shows with cannibal Yeah lined up and I was like Hey Pat can I play a rig Because he has a fucking old school Mesa duels. Yeah, and he has the old school ones which is like that's like

With the fucking with the metal zone too huh with the metal zone and then So I fucking creep in the venue I've seen it be like oh remembered. Yeah and then once they're done it's like giving a hounthouse I remember that dude fuck what an honor you're like it's so much different than my chug but so sick

well because I remember the reason I brought up dino and shit at that show at not fest was um because on roadrunner united DVD he's talking about how max was like you don't need seven strings to be hard and how max later went to like started playing some seven string shit and I was like

dude for real what made you guys took off the bottom three just to have a four string guitar dude that's so sick dude so what made you go from six string to seven and then you on base as like four to five. Oh, I know his answer. I know mine too. Yeah. I'd love to hear

him because I don't know. No, no, Garza has to go first. Corn. Yeah. So Garza sees corn and goes, shit, I want to sound like that. I want to... Yep. I want to look. I want to... Seven strings is heavy. Seven strings? A. Tune. And then I moved from four

four strings and five strings to be in Suicatsouts. To match ton or just... No, no, just I needed to have it. So like, my first tour was Suisse and... decided play a four string. And I was like, I had two of those fuckers low for,

it didn't work out that well, but it worked at the time. It made it work. DK walked in with the I've been in sound gear, right? Four string? Still got it. And we were in this room

fucking rocking out. Yeah. It was sick. Four stringer. I didn't even, I never even played a five yet in my life. Wow.

We got me a five string and then I started playing with the five string. And I'm like, oh God, I'm never going back. Yeah. It's too perfect for metal

For the kind of metal I like to play Yeah now I play a four string It feels like It feels like a fucking toothpick It feels like I'm wearing like a size six shoe Or something It just doesn't fit anymore That toothpick with a fucking frip war on it

Yeah It doesn't feel good That's fucking awesome Oh my god You guys, you guys hungry I've been thinking pizza this whole damn time Dude It's been crossed my mind

The past hour and a half I'm fat I'm on a diet It's only about five or six pizzas. No, you're not. You're not. I'm not. I had a salad today, though.

Nice. There you go. That's a perfect excuse to, I didn't eat carbs on purpose. No, we're going to belly flop face versus and there's some fucking pie. Where are we going?

Landpost? I'll probably go to Graziano's. You see that place down there going on Porky's pizza? Over by Albersons? We're Alpersons? It's all right. That's all right. Yeah, I mean.

Catching. Where we're going? Is it outside or no? It's inside. Is it open? It's super chill. They close at 9, but they're super chill.

coach gave me and I had to walk out to a moitaine fight with a luchador mask and it just stuck. When things stuck, you can't ignore it. Of course. There it is, you know. Fuck it. I have a feeling that after the next EOC fight, we're probably to watch it because it's a good one, we're probably

come right back here. I'm going to be a bit. Garza will have his own fight companion. Hell yeah, that's what I'm saying, dude, for sure. I was thinking about it, it's not on purpose. It's if his felt natural. I want to get you guys on and then after a fight it's just fun. I appreciate you having my opinion

on fights over here, dude, honestly. Because I remember back in the day, remember when Anderson Silva kicked freaking Whiteman in the shin? And he flingled his chin and you guys were and I was like, I'm all guaranteed. You're coming to the gym. I'm going to show you how not to do that. Because I've done that to my shit where I almost

snapped it in, I fought in Indiana. And I got x-rays on my legs and I have 17 micropactors of my shins from catching elbows, freaking knee gaps. Ging to shin. Gingas leg. Dingas shins. Dingus shins. Michael Fractors.

I heard that band, dude. Diggas shins? I want to see that shirt, though. They're from Kentucky. They're tied that shirt. They're sick, dude. They're from Lexington. All right. Who would win in a fight? Colonel Sanders from KFC or fucking Ronald McDonald in their prime? In their prime? In their prime? They never age, dude.

They're the same. Ronald McDonald because I bet under that, that clown shit, he's fucking ripped. He's ripped. Closet ripped. Yeah. Colonel Sanders is as old as fuck. He probably boxed. He probably boxed on a freaking air. But he is a heavyweight probably. Yeah, he's got that butter in his hands.

All right. And Jamima or Miss Butterworth before we go. Oh, fuck. She'll fuck her up on. Oh, yeah. She's got that fucking. She's got that fucking. She's got that fucking.

You don't fuck with me mentality, you know. Fuck yeah. All right, everyone. Thank you for watching. Listen, till then. Later.
