Ken, did you go to prom?
I did both years.
What'd you do?
I ended up sneaking behind the bleachers with a teacher or something.
Are you thinking about taking that deal, Spenny?
Getting fake tits?
I do need the money, but we're looking for a new candidate to do the dating show with.
Ken, would you want to run it back?
I think I didn't find what I was looking for the first time, and I don't know if I'm going to find it the second time.
If I didn't find you guys, I would have been cooked.
What do you think you'd be doing, Ben, if you weren't doing this right now?
Okay, so hold on.
What do we got?
We're hitting a party bus.
It's Friday right now.
We're throwing around some ideas as far as what we're going to do for fun this weekend.
Jack, let me, what was the idea?
You said, do you having a party bus?
Yeah, we're ripping a party bus going from Southtown Por House to Zorba's and DL.
It'd be kind of funny of all you boys.
We might crash her birthday then.
There's already 30 people pulling up.
Oh, they wouldn't even know we're there.
I'll tell you something, Jack.
That's a way better idea than Spenny's.
What was Spenny's idea?
Spenny debatably came up with the worst.
I'm the worst idea I've ever heard in my life.
Straight up the worst idea I've ever heard in my life.
It was just a joke.
It was a joke.
I don't know.
You said it pretty serious.
Now you're trying to take it back.
It was a joke.
It was a joke.
It was a joke.
It was a show.
Yeah.
So I'm like,
hey,
guys,
after this,
we should all like hang out,
drink some beers,
like play some pool.
Like that sounds funny.
He goes,
or you know what we could do?
Go to Vegas and do it sober.
And I go,
that sounds like the worst idea I've ever heard.
I'm sorry.
You can't just take a layover in Vegas.
When we live all the way up.
You know, us hanging out, playing pool, drinking some beers, maybe not drinking some beers, that sounds great.
All of us going to Vegas and doing it sober sounds absolutely horrendous.
It is horrendous.
It's terrible doing it.
I think a sober Vegas trip might be the most profitable Vegas trip.
No, I don't think.
There's no way it's going to be profitable either way.
No.
I think you lose money.
Yeah, you lose.
I'm just a bad gambler.
You'd actually know how to gamble.
No, I'm just a bad gambler.
Nobody knows how to gamble.
I'm just a bad drunk gambler.
I can't.
I've seen you lose plenty of money sober, too.
Jack, you sure you even got room for us?
We could definitely make some room on the bus.
Yeah,
you get on half the people have to leave.
Remember when you try to get on that party bus at Zoros?
He got like in a fight?
Dude, I was just thinking about that the other day.
A bunch of my high school classmates.
This was a long time ago.
Ten was in the grade above me.
And a lot of the fellows in his grade were, they just were not nice.
And so I was like,
damn, Ken.
Paying, I mean, what's not Ken's fault?
No, but I was saying you had like a,
you had a tough go through high school with a bunch of dicks apparently, huh?
Yeah, I almost was in Ken's grade, and I'm just so happy I'm not.
And for an interaction like that, I paid $40 to get on the bus.
And then he's like, there's no room.
And then he kind of physically kicked me on.
Yeah, I remember you telling me the next day, like, yeah, you like push me down.
Yeah, I was down in the gravel.
Took your money and pushed it down.
He peeled 40 bucks off you and then.
Well, he didn't take my money.
That was a frustrating part.
I already paid a beer.
They just wouldn't let you on.
That was probably back before you had motion.
Yeah, right.
Sorry to bring that that.
No, I'm not.
You see the look on Ryan's face?
Not the motion talk again.
I was having a really good chuckle about that.
Just that conversation.
It was so funny.
I think it's like, you know, you got to talk like who you want to be.
You got to talk, you know, positive speak.
Like you have to pretend you're asleep to fall asleep.
So I'm going to pretend I have motion until I have motion.
Who are you going to pretend you're like?
I know, just myself.
Just Ryan with motion.
Just be yourself, Ryan.
You want to know what I was thinking about?
I think anybody who's concerned with making.
making sure people think that they have motion have absolutely zero motion.
Uh-oh, Ryan.
I'm not saying, I'm not saying that too.
I'm not saying that's right.
And Ryan just went backwards.
I'm saying don't get caught up in there.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, I didn't know what motion was until Spain described it to me.
But like, I think people that actually have motion probably aren't concerned with having motion.
I was feeling pretty good because like, you know, I thought I was moving forward.
And then I sat down the pod and they got demoted to the middle seat.
I've had this one locked down.
for like two years.
Oh yeah, that's Mike's seat now.
That is a lot.
Look at him just sitting there.
He's sitting there like he's been there for years.
He's not having to hold anything.
Just kidding.
I am very comfortable over here.
That's a good spot.
Could be back here with half the set blocked off.
You know what?
This reminds me of the talking of high school and then also emotion.
I don't go on TikTok very often.
But I went on last night.
There's this thing called hood prom.
I don't know if it's really a thing, but it's just like.
I'd say it's a trend.
It's like a trend, I think.
Bro.
So have you guys seen that?
No.
I've seen it.
Oh, my God, I've got to pull some of these up.
Can I just, like, Google?
Let me just pull it up.
It's just prom, but some people go fucking so hard at it.
You'd think they're getting married.
Let me just tune in.
I got some I saved, actually, just for this time.
Are they in front of a fucking rolls for pro?
He's got a grill.
Look at this shit.
So, these people.
Oh, geez.
Look at.
What's that NBA young boy?
No.
You thought this kid just went first overall in the draft.
Yeah.
He comes out.
This is how I discovered it.
His parents are crying.
This is crazy.
I literally thought this kid got drafted when I saw it.
I'm like, damn, this is lit.
Holy crap.
This is the craziest walkout of all time.
By himself.
By himself.
Where's his chick?
I don't know.
The whole neighborhood is out.
Holy crap.
What?
Who is this guy?
Now, this guy has motion.
That's what I thought.
Initially, I thought he got like drafted.
I'm like, this is lit.
And it turns out it's just for prom.
And then since I watched that, I just kept getting served more of them.
There's so many of them, too.
There's a thing. People go so hard.
Look at these kids pulling up to their high school prom.
Everyone's rolling up in a Lamborghini, Uris or a Mercedes.
Red carpets rolled out.
I guess I have seen these, and the African-American community particularly goes so hard on it.
And honestly, like, money's money spreading.
I saw this one.
This kid was literally throwing money up, and everyone's like, it was like he was at the club.
It goes pretty hard.
It does go hard.
I'm not denying that.
And I'm not really saying anything.
I'm just saying, have you seen it?
Dude, where is this?
This guy.
All over. All over.
This isn't just one high school.
Look at this one.
Holy small.
Oh, my God.
Fucking horse carriage.
That is crazy.
She's not even in there with their date.
So, is this a trend or is this always been a thing?
They're rolling in a helicopter.
Right here.
They're back there in the helicopter.
In the motel six parking lot?
They got dancers.
I think that's a trend.
church.
That's a church.
I didn't see the crosses yet.
I didn't see the crosses yet.
I think before you call this a trend,
this has kind of always been a thing.
Yeah, I think...
Dude, it's definitely blowing up more, though.
People went so hard at prom.
Oh my gosh.
They got crowns, tiaras.
It's honestly super lit.
It's super lit.
And obviously, like, they're just having a good time.
Look at that bag.
I just discovered it last night.
And I was like, this is insane compared to when I was at prom.
I feel bad for whoever has to pay for their weddings.
This is got to be, yeah, this is bigger than my wedding.
Well, that's what I'm getting at.
And you guys have seen that they did a show on it, like the sweet 16s too.
Yeah.
They would do like just insane, extravagant.
Powing in the helicopter?
That's wild.
Pretty sick.
Which is crazy.
She's got a fish bowl in her dress with live fish.
Now it just looks like Halloween.
This is a crazy fit.
What the heck?
Look at this.
She had little backup dancers come out before her.
walkout. This is like a boxing match walkout.
Dude, I watched these for hours
last night and I was thoroughly entertained.
Like, it is so over the top that
I love it. I love things that are over the top.
But it was just like...
This is insane. Look, they're just
working for the girl who's about to walk out.
Their entrances
and like the, everyone being there
taking pictures and stuff
is more lit than prom
probably ends up being. Yeah.
That's motion. That's fucking motion.
Working it. Oh my.
gosh. That's my gosh. How old are these people? Why do they look so much older than high school?
I still just chuckle at this one. That's the best one. With the matching shoes and the other shoes. The full kit is insane.
Anyways, but yeah, pretty lit. Yeah, we weren't doing it like that at my school. Prom was fun.
Your prom was fun, Cs when I went to yours. Yeah. I had my first beer, a lining Googles.
Wow. And I took a sip of it and I set it down too fast and it foamed over. Was it was it Coors Light?
No, it was a line in Googles.
And what did C.J. do?
He was really mentoring me through the whole process.
He was cool.
I felt bad, actually, about that.
So, you know, you go through, like, all this stuff and, like, you get all dressed up.
And, like, the girls more so spend so much time and money and all this stuff.
And you, like, go and you do the pictures.
You walk.
And then, like, there's, like, the school dance or whatever.
And in high school, we were just so concerned about going to the party that we didn't even fucking go to the dance.
Like, it was just stupid.
Like I feel bad more so for the girls
Because I'm sure they were like
We get all dressed up
Got all dress up literally for nothing
For us all just to take it off
And then just go to like a house party
It was just stupid
I feel bad for all those girls
I'm sorry
Interesting that it kind of goes two ways
Because so for the most part
There wasn't any
Extracurricular parties at my school
I mean there was
But everyone went to post prom
Or are not invited
Yeah yeah
And so I was
Pushed him down at the door
I was probably like
At prom
At prom, like, oh my gosh, this is so lame.
I wish I was going to a house party instead.
Yeah.
And that's probably why we were like, we're not doing the stupid school dance with the lame music and the teachers all watching.
You know, I can, that's probably what our stance was.
But I look back, I'm like, we should have just gone.
And I just mostly feel bad for the girls because, like, they probably most more so.
Why do I feel like you wore like a purple suit?
No, I kept it pretty kosher.
Did you wear sneakers?
Uh, no.
Dress shoes.
Purple flat room?
I wasn't against that either.
No, I just dressed normal.
Oh.
I do remember, like, hitting JCPenny up.
Like, my whole get-up was probably, like, under 100.
You know, it's insane?
I get it up, Mike.
I get that up.
Well, my advice to, my advice to people just don't overthink it.
Like, that's cool, the whole crazy interest.
But when it's done, if you're like one of those.
10 grand on that.
One of those people, yeah, one, don't, don't overspend it.
And two, like, if you don't get asked to prom, like, still go.
Whatever.
Go hang out with your buddies.
go to the post prom or just skip and go to the party,
but do something.
Don't be like,
lame or I didn't get asked.
Just do it.
You only have this small window in your life to like do that experience.
And that's kind of what I'm saying.
Like we just skipped half of it.
Just because we thought we were too cool or whatever, you know.
Yeah.
Or you could take one of your best friend's sisters.
You could.
What's up with that, Ryan?
Yeah, what the fuck is up with that, Ryan?
What the hell is up with that?
I figured I was going to get away with that shit.
It was like 10 years ago.
He took my sister to prom.
She probably won't say no.
She, yeah, she was a nice lady, and she is a nice lady.
And she said yes.
So that was fun.
I just remember.
I just remember, you know.
We had a great time.
You would have approved it was all safe.
It was all good.
What was going through your mind when you were like, okay, I need a date to prom?
Did you know me back then?
I'm going to ask Ben's sister.
And it's not like, it's not like you guys were friends.
I think he was...
We were friends.
I almost worry, like, at the time,
a little bit of a charity case.
Ben was just young enough, maybe,
that you just really true.
You did give off, like, younger brother vibes,
but, like, you weren't, like, a man yet.
So maybe...
You were kind of fired up about it.
You were back then?
I don't...
Still is.
Apparently.
That actually reminds me that Ken has on his Instagram.
Oh, I didn't delete anything that.
He's going to be.
He's going to do it.
Go quick ride.
I got it.
I think.
Ken, did you go to prom?
I did, both years.
What'd you do?
I ended up sneaking behind the bleachers with a teacher or something?
Nothing memorable enough for me to remember it.
One of the students' sons, moms.
That'd make more sense.
Not one of the teachers.
They're too young for him.
You know, Ryan, what goes around comes around, though, you took my sister to prom
and then Mike ended up marrying yours.
Yeah.
That goes around.
Worked up.
Worked up.
What do I have on my Instagram, Ryan?
You had a woman crush Wednesday to
Ben's sister.
What the fuck?
Oh, I'm pretty sure I got rid of that.
You deleted it.
I got rid of that a long time ago.
I realized how weird that is.
It was intentionally to bug Ben.
Yeah.
Bro, Jack just texted me.
My prom date got cracked by a different dude after prom night.
Like on prom night.
Were you guys going to prom as like your friends?
Yeah, my friend.
Oh shit.
Were you going?
I didn't know if I should say it.
Were you going as just friends or were you like thinking you were like,
I was trying to not just be.
just be friends with there.
It was actually my buddy's girlfriend's best friend.
So we were trying to run like a little two-man action.
And, uh,
yeah,
did not get,
didn't go well for the kid,
eh?
Did he end up running a two-girl and you just had no one?
Yeah,
was it,
was it your buddy?
Did he swoop?
Fortunately not.
He didn't get to take him both.
Was it one of your buddies that swooped?
No,
I was,
I was a junior as just another senior,
senior guy.
Classic.
Damn seniors.
Yeah.
Good buddy of mine,
but yeah,
just a funny story to look back on.
In the U.S., you guys, like, it's like so funny how prom is such a big thing.
It's not that big in Canada.
What I just showed you to those videos, that was the, that was beyond how big it is everywhere
else that I've seen.
What are you guys doing up in Canada?
Dude, not anything that insane.
Like, I feel like you just, like, growing up in Canada, I always, like, saw the videos of,
like, people asking if they wanted to go to their prom and they'd have, like, a sign with, like,
some, like, catchy phrase on it or something, you know?
Like, they would incorporate, like, skittles.
to asking their date to prom.
Or like a dirt bike or something.
Yeah, like a dirt bike, yeah.
I did that.
And like in Canada,
no one did that ever.
I didn't know anyone,
anybody that did that.
So the asking was very just normal.
Like you would just be in the hall
just like walking by whoever and be like,
hey, you want to be like my date to whatever.
That's kind of how it was for me.
Yeah, that's how it was for me.
I just like, was like, hey.
It wasn't like you were getting married or like throwing a car to
fashion wedding.
Yeah, true.
But yeah, it was like, it's a big thing in the U.S.
It's not that big in Canada.
So I can't really relate to the experience.
Yeah.
But it's cool to hear about it.
And I always thought it was cool.
I was like, all my American buddies would have, like, a prom party.
Like, I didn't even really have a graduation party.
You guys didn't even really have much of a prom.
Yeah, no, not really.
Honestly, like, we, I think our school had like a graduation party and that was it.
And, like, you'd go, you'd walk the stage with your hat, with the cap and the gown.
That's the ceremony.
The ceremony.
but then after there'd be a after grad.
They'd call it after grad and you would go up to like a hang out.
A hang out and everybody would hang out.
In the school, right?
Ours was like at the school.
Mine was at a bar.
Oh, wow.
Ours is at the school to keep people away from going to a bar.
Yeah, well, because you can drink when you're 18.
That is true.
So half the kids were 18, half the kids weren't.
So it was at like a legit bar and you could order drinks and stuff.
It was kind of different.
That's crazy that at the age of 18, like you're a senior in high school,
you could go to a bar and drink.
Yeah.
Do you think in most other countries?
Yeah, I was going to say is that, I guess, from seeing how it is in the States where people then turn 21 and then go crazy, I guess they kind of go crazy when they go off to college.
But like, do you notice a difference?
So the thing that I noticed was like when you go to, like, I would say nowadays, drinking is like such a normalized thing.
But back when I was growing up, I was like, I don't think I really started drinking or like my friends started drinking until they were like 16 or 17.
but I swear kids are drinking like early now,
like way earlier than that.
But yeah,
it was just like interesting because growing up being 18,
it was always like half the kids would be like,
oh,
there's a party tonight in high school,
but then half the kids wouldn't show up
because they would be at the bar.
Like there'd be a party and the kids would be like,
ah, like, let's just go hit the bar instead.
Yeah.
So it was kind of funny.
You messed out on house parties.
I didn't miss it.
Or you didn't mess out.
Well, I,
you know,
like they did.
Yeah, they literally did.
But yeah, it was just different for sure.
I feel like house parties went longer in the U.S. than they do in Canada,
because as soon as you turn 18, you start going to the bar.
I mean, naturally so, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, fake IDs kind of ruined house parties.
Yeah.
People always are out at the bar.
Like, I have friends that, like, like, just turned 21, and they're like, oh, I've got a fake idea when I went to college.
Everybody's got fake IDs nowadays, though.
It's pretty crazy.
It's, like, way easier to, like, get one.
Yeah.
My buddy Brad bought his and it came in like a little figurine in like from China or wherever the hell.
And then there's two fake IDs like in the bottom of it in like a secret compartment.
So it's kind of lit.
You were like, what are you going to get?
You'd buy it with Bitcoin.
Yeah.
And you bought with Bitcoin.
And I seem to remember he spent like five Bitcoin on his fucking fake IDs.
Which is like 20 bucks back.
500K now.
And I always, he's not, I don't think he's a big crypto guy, but I always tell him I go, you know, Brad, that'd be worth like a fucking house now.
Make sure you don't have like a little bit left over because even like half of Bitcoin.
Yeah.
The crazy thing about like the age difference though is the kids in Canada are like 16 that are getting fake IDs.
The kids in the U.S. are like 18, 19, 20 that are getting the fake.
So like it's you go to the bar and you can see people and you're like that is definitely a 16 year old person.
Like they are not.
That's kind of young because I went to the bar when I was 16.
I use my brother's ID.
I always love that the fake ID place.
would run a bulk discount on you.
But yeah, they'd be like, hey, I'm getting a fake.
We only need two more people until we have 10 total.
Then we can put the order in.
That's what I did.
Those places had to make out like crazy now if they held on any of that Bitcoin.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
They got to be like fucking billionaires.
Probably.
They're probably the Bitcoin whales.
It's probably some of the lost Bitcoin, honestly.
Yeah, I think a classic situation in that, though,
is like the kids that also didn't drink in high school
or that were like anti-drink and then they get to college and then they go off the rails.
True.
I don't even really think I've ever been to a college party.
It's a classic.
Everyone knows one.
Yeah, they're usually the people that are like,
I don't need to do that.
I'm not doing that.
I don't need to get into that.
And then they get into it.
And man,
can they not handle it?
Not that I don't want to keep talking about high school.
It is kind of a random transition,
but I was thinking about it.
I was watching TikTok today.
And the question was, would you steal 100K from Elon Musk if he didn't notice?
And I was thinking about it.
And at first I was like, fuck, yeah, of course I wouldn't notice 100K.
And then I thought about it was like, you can't be stealing.
She can't steal 100K from anybody, honestly.
What's the context of it?
What were his Tesla employees being like, yo, we should just stop working and see how long we can not work for.
It's essentially what it is, stealing 100K from him.
No, I think it was just that like he's the rich.
richest person in the world and would be like, would you steal?
Would you steal if he didn't even notice?
He never knew.
No.
You can't fucking steal money.
It doesn't matter who it's from.
I believe that's the right answer.
There's a lot of people on TikTok that were like,
fuck yeah, I'm stealing from him.
Obviously, that doesn't surprise me one bit.
That's what actually surprised me was how people were like, no, fuck him.
I'm stealing everything.
Dirty money.
Those are the same people that I think think of very certain way that I disagree with
every single way that they think.
That's probably true.
I'm assuming that's what kind of people were saying that.
Or people that don't like Elon,
which there is people out there that don't like them.
Yeah, tons.
But it's the same thing as like,
would you steal $10 or $100 from me?
Depends, you want to go play a game of pool?
I'll steal it off you, but.
No, like, no, if I have my wallet, like on the counter and you just opened it up.
Oh, no.
Fuck no.
Right.
So it's like.
Yeah, no, I see what you're saying for sure.
Did someone steal my wallet?
My wallet's gone.
And like it can't, it doesn't have fucking legs.
You know there's an air tag slip on that.
No, I run the nowhere air tag one because it's slightly thicker and I normally keep track of my shit.
Ryan, have you ever told the story of when you were accused of stealing money?
Oh, yeah.
I sold my grandma's van.
What kind of van did you have?
Oh, dude, it was a Chrysler, Town, and Country, pewter, silver, whatever that, you know, it's the piss yellow one.
Dalton would love it.
But so I sold the VIII.
van brought the cash back and set the two grand on his bed and then was just like job well done ryan
like i knew how to run facebook marketplace he didn't so i was going to be the hero that got rid of grandma's
van and then the money went missing and he's like you forgot to give it to me and i'm like no i didn't
set it on your bed and he's like no it's not there and we went for this whole back and forth for like a
long time and then he kind of came and he's like if you stole money from me like you need money that bad
if you're in trouble like you can ask but you can't
can't steal.
And I'm like, no, of course I didn't fucking steal from you.
And we were down bad.
We were down pretty bad.
Right.
So he was just like, he was like, he was looking around.
I'm sure like what did they get this week?
If you need the money, just tell me it was two grand.
It would have been life changing amount of money for us.
Oh my God.
Yeah.
Ryan starts rolling around falling with an extra chain.
I've got an extra $100 chain.
I was running like a full tank of gas in my car for a couple weeks.
But yeah, so we got kind of like a little spat about it.
he was, you know, like pretty certain that I did because money doesn't just walk away
and came to figure out that he had had someone come in and was like going to clean the house
for a, like we're having Christmas or some shit.
And so he's taking some things off my mom's plate.
And then, yeah, cleaning lady nab two grand.
Which is crazy that you ended up finding that out.
I think that lady ended up like, oh, and I shouldn't speak because I'm not 100% certain,
but I'm pretty sure she went to rehab and in rehab.
They tell you you have to write all your wrongs and like apologies.
for all the shit you do.
And she was like,
I stole two grand from this guy.
And so that's how it got back out.
Interesting.
Okay.
Yeah.
That had to have been a weight off your shoulders.
Bro, I tore apart my room.
I was,
because I'm an idiot and I lose things all the time.
And I'm like,
how could I possibly have lost the most amount of money that at that time I'd
held?
You know,
I was like,
I can't believe it.
And then,
uh,
yeah,
turns out it was just not me.
Your name was cleared?
Yeah,
no good.
That's crazy.
Don't be stealing even from Elon Musk,
I guess.
Did you guys see what happened?
at the Drift Mansion
No
This is, dude, this is
100%
What happened to me
Slash us
Oh no
He just got out of his 370
Left it in neutral
Mm-hmm
And it's like
Walking around it too a lot
Yeah it's just inching
It's just inching slowly though
So they didn't notice
But it rolled like a football field
Of distance
No
No
Across the yard
Oh no
All the way into the woods
That's
I love, where's your car?
He's like, wait, where the fuck is it?
Those little one-wheel things, too.
I love who they actually had to look for it.
Dude, where's your car?
Dude, it's not funny, dude.
The car's going to be.
Yeah, it rolled all the way into the trees
and smashed up the front end.
Oh, my God.
You got to be sitting me, bro.
It reminds, it's one thing when that happens to your snowmobile.
You go try to high mark next thing.
You got to let go your sled,
and it's flying into trees,
but it doesn't happen that often in a car.
Remember when this happened in the Subaru in our parking lot?
Oh, yeah.
That's pretty jammed up.
That thing is a hard hit.
Wait, can you refresh me on the Subaru?
I was driving the blue Subaru, the hatchback,
and it was in the middle of winter.
I pull up to the shop.
I hop out of it.
I'm singing, little bo-peeped a brand-new whip,
and I hop it.
I slam the door, and I'm walking up to the door,
and I pulled the e-break,
but I didn't pull it straight.
wrong enough. And so I'm walking into the door, slam the door. Meanwhile, Justin is pulling into the
driveway. He hops out of his car right as he realizes that the Subaru is rolling backwards and it was
about to teabone his car that he had parked. So he lunges to get into the car, slips on the ice,
like messes up his knee or something in the process of doing so. Crawls into the car, pulls the e-break.
Meanwhile, I'm looking out the security cam footage.
We have a TV above the door so we can see out the door.
And I see the car rolling back and I come running out like, oh, fuck, oh, fuck.
And Justin's like laying on the ground.
Like with e-brake in hand.
I got it.
Trying to save it.
Do you remember when Dalton tried to just drive your Evo?
Remember when he took it for a test drive?
Yeah, dude.
This was before he worked for us.
Before I even knew who he was, I don't know, he had messaged me about buying it.
Uh-huh.
He was just a kid.
Basically, he didn't know how to drive a manual that doesn't have hill assist.
Like, Hill Start Assist.
So Hill Start Assis is when, like, let's say you're about to take off in first gear, but you're on a hill.
It will, like, hold the break until you start.
That's only, like, a new manual has that.
So, like, on an Evo, pretty raw type of vehicle.
Just a standard manual.
So he's basically trying to start driving it.
And I'm standing behind it.
He keeps getting closer and closer to the...
I'll find the video.
To the garbage.
I'm like fucking pushing that.
I'm like, let the clutch out.
You got within like an inch.
Because our driveway is on more of a slant than people think.
And so he like backed out and started turning to like make his way out.
And then he was just like kind of...
He was focused on not like...
Yeah, drop on the clutch out or whatever.
I'm sure we'd be working together three years later.
Did you guys ever see that clip of...
that kid in Canada going off the cliff on a sled?
I did.
Dude.
That was crazy.
How was that guy okay?
I have met that kid before and I was supposed to go out that weekend with Brett to ride with that with that with that crew.
What?
I know.
Bro, I can't even believe that kid's alive.
Like what happened?
You haven't seen it?
No.
Oh, dude, we got to pull this shit.
This is the-
Are we even going to be able to show it on YouTube?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's on YouTube.
It's been on the news.
From very far away.
How far did he fall?
An insane amount.
A couple hundred feet?
No, no, more than 100 feet.
He had like 300 feet and then another 300 feet.
I think they measured it on the drone.
It was like 682 feet or something on the drone.
Two shelves that he fell off.
Like powder snow then luckily?
Like an avalanche.
Like it was an avalanche part avalanche part cliff and he bounced off a pillow and
landed another cliff.
Holy crap.
Wait till you see this thing.
It's insane.
Yeah, no, I mean.
They're calling it a 700 foot cliff.
What?
He hit a couple of shells, but I mean in any circumstances, like any rock hit at all in that fall,
and he would have just been mangled.
This way, this is the most...
He's high marking.
He's high marking the shoot at a hill climb event.
This is in Revy.
Dude, high marking is so...
I mean, it's one of the more badass things you could possibly do on a snowmobile
or really hill climbing anything.
But the circumstances and the consequences...
Bro, who is filming this?
Watch this is the most insane thing.
So now he's in the trees.
Going straight down.
And then see the snow?
There goes the sled.
So the sled, that's the sled falling.
That's the hole.
There's him.
Did you see him falling?
And there's still more cliff.
And there's still more cliff.
And then wait, watch this.
So now you'll see the sled rolling down, and then you'll see him.
And see the sled?
So there's the sled, and he's just right above it.
just to the right
and then watch they zoom in
they zoom in on him here
that was the craziest
cliff fall
I've ever
I've ever seen of somebody living
yeah how was he alive
and the whole thing
like there's a YouTube video
you can go and
and my buddy Jake that came down here before
I was like dude
because he's friends with him
I was like dude you gotta go interview him
like that that's gonna be a good
YouTube video right there
so Jake went out and
filmed an interview of them
and he was like
He hit that cliff and then they got his sled working and he jumped on his sled, rode it to the cabin, Boulder Cabin.
And, uh, where you hit the, where Ben, we're in the national international monument.
Classic.
So he parked there and then, uh, I don't know if he doubled down, but he drove himself to the hospital in his own truck.
Like beast, full blown beast.
So what was wrong?
Yeah.
So I think he.
He got to the hospital, just banged up bruised,
and I think he had a broken bone in his neck.
But he was walking.
He was walking, and he was fine.
He could look.
Like, I think...
Fracture.
Fracture.
So he just literally came out clean.
Should have died.
And he'll, like, there's literally a cool video of him talking about, like, his experience,
what it was like.
Like, he's like, yeah, dude, I didn't know where I was.
And there's a GoPro helmet cam video, too, on, on YouTube.
It's pretty insane.
It's unfortunate.
You can't really see anything because he's, like,
In the avalanche or the snow, it's just like snow.
And then you just see this glimpse of him just...
You see his arms.
He's just falling.
His arms are just in front of him.
He's just falling.
And then it just goes white again.
So what led him into that?
Not keeping his finger on the brake?
So that's a...
Did he whiskey throttle at the top?
I think so.
Yeah, I think he just like...
I mean, they're riding these shoot sleds.
So like, just the most high-powered sleds out there.
Those are not as nimble.
Yeah, they're not as nimble.
They're low to the ground.
and he just hit like the side hill and as soon as he hit the side hill it just he fell down and
I guess you'd call that a low side and it just pulled him down and it's so steep he says too he
he says in his video that he was like yeah he's like I didn't want to ditch the sled which is like
classic sledder I mean who wants to so he just wrote like he was trying to like save it he was trying to save
it in doing so it got worse yeah and yeah that's usually how it goes like as a kid I'd always
like try to save the bike from getting damaged.
Even though you shouldn't.
That's when you fully shouldn't.
You're like, man, if I would have just let go, I'd have been fine.
But you didn't want to have to get a new set of handlebars or whatever, you know.
Replace your grips.
Yeah.
Your brake lever or whatever.
I think we're due for a sled trip.
We got to get out there.
Thank God.
I don't know if the season's over.
I don't know if that story got me revved up for a sled trip.
Well, just some pow turns.
Yeah, we're not high marking.
Yeah, we're not high.
Just some casual pow turns.
When he were telling that story, I was literally just like, oh, man, that's like my least favorite part of snowmobiling.
I know.
Hills.
Falling off a cliff.
No, just like hill riding in avalanche danger.
Yeah.
I hate that.
I mean, I hate the fear of avalanches so much to the point where it like almost takes the enjoyment of going snowmobiling out.
No, I do feel that.
You're just on edge the whole time.
Yeah.
Luckily, I mean, we go with guys that are so dialed.
They don't put us in positions, but it wasn't always like that.
You know, before we had friends out there, we were.
were just raw dogging it, which is a fucking miracle that we're all okay.
You know, the most Midwest thing ever, you go out west and you don't even have an
avie peg.
Wow.
Or a beacon.
It's one thing.
We've said it before.

If you don't have an avie bag, you should try to get one.
But if you don't have a beacon, don't go.
I would even say I kind of got big into sledding.
this last year and it's not even having a beacon it's knowing how to find the beacon you're
you're 100% going with guys that know how to find a beacon is what you need to be with yeah that too
because if they don't have a beacon and then you get in a predicament yeah then your beacon does no good
yeah your beacon does no good like if you're listening in your slut you got to do the avalanche
training and know how to use the stuff anything can happen out there even for the best guys
it's a wild wild west it is we got to hit
Canada and do a like an adventure trip with you.
Oh, dude.
I want to bring you guys to Canada with me so bad.
Like in the summer.
Like mountain summer.
Backcountry camping.
Like a camping type of video where we got to like go somewhere.
Dude.
And like it's kind of hard to get to and then we camp there.
Send off bears.
That'd be fun.
That's like my dream video right there.
I want to take you guys back country camping so bad.
We got to go somewhere where we can ride bikes in or something.
Why is it so scary, would you say?
Well, I mean,
Dangerous to get to slash animals or what?
Just the animal thing, like,
I go out backcountry with my girlfriend a lot,
and I don't sleep throughout the night, really.
Do you have a gun?
No, no gun.
No, barely even a knife.
I barely even have a knife when I go.
All we got is just two cans of bear spray.
That's it.
You can't have a gun?
I was just going to ask what the definition of barely a knife was,
and then you said two cans of bear spray.
Well, like barely a knife, like a,
I go.
Four-Ans.
Pocket knife.
Yeah, pocket knife.
For whittling.
You like,
you can't bring it.
You can't have guns?
No,
you can have them,
but where I'm going,
I'm going into,
like,
national parks even sometimes.
You can't even really bring a gun in there,
and you can't hunt on the land that I'm in.
Obviously,
you're not going there for hunting,
but, like,
if a bear was charging you,
you couldn't have,
like, a small pistol to just...
I think you'd go to jail.
If you...
You're supposed to just let it maul you?
Well, I don't think you're supposed to let it maul you,
but if you have a handgun in a national park
can you shoot it?
Like, even if you save your own life, I think you're still going to be in trouble for that.
Just because you had it.
Just because you fired it off in a...
Like the bear was trying to get you, you fire it off.
You wouldn't be looking good.
You'd be alive, but you wouldn't be looking good still.
So I don't know.
Maybe it's better just to get mauled and not go.
Maybe that's why it's so scary then.
It is scary, dude.
It's scary.
I don't sleep much.
Every single little crack and twig you hear, no cell service, even if you did get mauled,
you got a six mile hike out of there.
It'd be like the Revenant.
Yeah, it would.
You'd be crawling all four.
Crolling on all fours just to get out of there.
That's really good, but once you finish,
you're like, I don't know if I need to watch that again.
That's true.
I did only watch it once.
It's like a really good movie, but it's like just a lot.
You're like...
It would be epic to go to Alaska one day too.
Yeah, I would love to see Alaska.
Like Canada to Alaska would be so amazing.
Dude, I've said it, I think, once on this podcast,
but we should do it in the winter.
we should go to Yucatan, Siberia.
Go hit a night with the outdoor boys?
It's like the world's coldest place on earth.
Like the people that live there, I've watched some documentaries on it.
You have to watch it with like captions on.
But it's insane, dude.
You guys got to watch it.
They don't have running water.
It's like perma frost up there.
Because it's literally so cold.
Yeah, you got to go to the lake.
But they still carry on with their life and like have school and make dinner and stuff.
But they only shower like once a week.
They basically have like a sauna, really big sauna.
And they go and they have,
collect wood and like put it in the sauna start the fire and then they have a bunch of snow
that they carry in and and they let it melt and they use that the it's crazy dude it's a different
way of living why do they live up there that's where they were born ryan some people but i mean like
why why is there a settlement in such an awful place or an awfully hard place to live it's kind of like
some people would say why do we live here for january february march okay farming so this lady
they obviously have internet.
I think she lives there
and she makes videos of her family.
And just like,
these views are insane.
53 million views.
31 million views.
30 million views.
29 million views.
25.
Like big views and like...
She's making YouTube videos up there
is what she's doing.
Life in the coldest village on Earth
which is negative 71 Celsius
which is negative 95 Fahrenheit.
What the fuck?
And that is not okay.
Where is this?
Can you pop it up on a map?
It's in.
Yucatan, Siberia, or
Yucatia, Siberia, sorry about that.
I'm down.
You guys got to watch it.
I think I've sent it in the chat, but
I don't know what we do, but yeah, it's interesting.
It'd be cool to go there.
Hit a layover.
Cold plunge.
Like, I remember seeing like a TikTok of a guy
in that similar setting, and, you know,
they don't run to town.
You know, they have probably bigger towns
where they need to go get supplies.
And he's like, oh, I finally ran out of supplies,
got ahead into town.
And he has to build
essentially like an igloo out of pallets
around his diesel truck just to start it.
Just to warm it up.
Just the area where his truck is sitting
so that he can start it so that he can go to town.
And that's what's so interesting about this is like
in order to just do basic everyday tasks
when you live in a place this cold,
it's really interesting like the family dynamic.
Like the kid, like the boys helping the father gather wood
to then put into the sauna house or shower house they call it.
They don't have bathrooms.
Like they don't have just running water in their house because it would freeze, like the pipes and everything.
Or they do have it, I think, but it's turned off in the winter because obviously the pipe would freeze and burst.
I think everybody should live somewhere cold for a while because I think that's why there's problems in the world is because people don't have to fight the elements anymore.
Like if you truly, Burke Kreischer said it about North Dakota, actually.
He said the people are so nice there because the weather hates them.
Dude, I think it's good having seasons, though, because, like, I don't know, just keep stuff fresh.
And it also makes you appreciate when it's nice out.
And I don't know.
No, I think that's 100% true.
Come end of summer, I'm excited for fall.
And even come end of fall, I'm excited for winter.
Yeah, me too.
Now we're excited for spring and summer.
Me too.
I think it keeps stuff fresh.
I like it because you get to, I change my activities too.
Right.
Like, I would never play.
Xbox in the summer because I'm always doing stuff till the sun goes down.
But in the winter, I log so many hours on the Xbox or watching TV.
I don't even really watch TV in the summer.
And then like you just have different things you can do like sledding or whatever.
It's just a different way of doing things.
Gives you a new appreciation for things.
That's for sure.
Every time the sun, like I saw green grass today and it was.
How'd that feel?
It felt good, man.
It's been a long winter around here.
Well, even today, like yesterday was 75 degrees out.
and then today it's back to like 30 and snowing.
And I was like, man, it's not cool.
I took yesterday for granted.
Same.
I didn't.
I was outside with my shirt off hanging out in the sun all day.
It was amazing.
I'm glad one of us did.
It was hot out yesterday.
It was hot.
Ken may or may not have had his shirt off too.
TARPS optional, Ken?
Is it TARPS optional summer?
TARPS off yesterday, for sure.
Me and Ken were out in the field doing some manual labor with our shirts off.
Just being men.
Just doing farm stuff.
Yeah.
Speaking of Xbox, are you guys familiar with the burnt peanut?
He had like a real big run with Arc Raiders and then now he's playing Rust.
Okay.
I mean, I've seen burnt peanut.
I don't even care about the game aspect of it.
Exactly.
He's extremely entertaining.
So I won't even bore anybody with, he's got like a whole fucking ecosystem man.
It's actually fairly interesting.
But apparently that game is super addicting and he's streamed for 26 hours straight.
Not sleeping like he logged on.
For his 5 p.m. stream or 7 p.m. stream, he's central time.
So I, like, sometimes we'll tune in in the beginning, just see what's up.
And he had started early, and he went all night into the next day and made it till, like, the next evening and fell asleep at his computer playing the game.
What?
It's legendary.
It's fucking crazy, dude.
You're running 25 plus hour streams.
How is it more addictive than, I guess, other games?
You're, like, building villages and shit.
So there's more to do.
I don't really know.
It's not my thing.
tried it last winter, but they've got like a whole fucking ecosystem.
He's actually pretty funny.
Like the way he can make a super boring game.
Yeah.
Entertaining is impressive.
But yeah, I was just thinking about that.
I go, damn, dude, streaming for 26 hours.
Doing anything for guys.
Yeah.
Doing anything.
That's what Ken's stream is going to be like in his house.
Once we get his house security cams on any day now.
He's a lot.
People can tune in 24 hours.
He can sleep.
He can sleep.
Just not if you want.
the views to go down.
The views might go up, actually.
You get all the views in there for whenever you're going to snore or whatever.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
You're running live betting on your stream.
I'll take like a half a cut or whatever.
I think that's illegal, Ken.
Half a cut or whatever.
If you're taking a fee for hosting the back.
10 bucks an hour, take it or leave it.
Plus royalties.
For viewing?
Yeah, plus royalties.
The same royalties you gave me for quad.
So nothing.
Exactly.
I was actually scrolling through Calisi speaking of like probability betting.
It's currently a bet on there that the return of Jesus Christ will happen before GTA 6.
I have seen that.
That's crazy.
And I'm, I fear of any saying anything due to the power of speaking things into existence, the power of words.
But that's got to be a lock.
What's the odds?
That's a good question.
I mean, they've delayed it how many times.
They're probably going to delay it at least once more.
It's what it's fall.
It's hard to say.
They're pretty sure on the timeline this time.
I think, yeah, they're shooting for November of 26.
What are the current Colise odds of GTA 6 before the return of Jesus Christ?
You're safe.
No, no preaching here.
The odds are probably more solid on G.
No, what are the Calisi bets odds?
Come on, please.
Has put about an 80% chance that GTA 6 will release in 2026.
The official D announced is November 19, 2026.
80%.
No, that's just in 2026.
That GTA will be released.
So if it didn't show up in 2026, you'd lose your money.
If Jesus doesn't show up before November.
But even if GTA got pushed out to 2027, then you would lose your money, I think.
Am I seeing this right?
They're saying it's 49 cents to buy yes, 52 cents to buy no.
What is the exact bet?
So if you bet $10, you could win $20.
That GTA comes out before the return of Jesus.
Correct.
I'm looking at it.
There's got to be some fine print here.
Look, it just changed up to 50%.
Throw a little cash in let's see what happens.
Down the middle on this.
And that's not Kalshi?
Yeah.
Is it Kalshi or Kaleisi?
I thought you were talking about the mayor of Kormon.
Same I edited too.
That would have been corrupt.
What's the mayor's name?
Fraud.
Well, what are you learning here, Ryan?
I'm just fucking appalled.
that it could possibly be a 50-50 bet.
Throw a little cash down.
How is that even plausible?
Why don't you throw a little cash?
Oh, he's throwing some cash in.
He's logging it in.
I have to make an account and do a bunch of shit.
Sorry, I didn't mean to derail us.
That truly I just couldn't even have imagined
that it was that close of odds.
Now he's all stressed.
He had to throw the phone out of way.
They had to put the phone down.
Put the phone down.
He's stressed.
There's too much phone.
My mom was right.
It was those damn phones.
Are you thinking about taking that deal?
Spenny or where are you at on that?
Which deal? The deal.
No, I'm not thinking about taking the deal, Ben.
Getting fake tits?
No, I'm not doing it.
Yeah, I don't think you should.
I mean, I do need the money, but...
So you'd consider it.
He has now opened the whole room up for conversation.
I do need the money, but I can't take the deal.
Hold on, so explain the deal again.
Ben's going to pay you if you get fake tits.
Yeah, and he's going to buy them, too.
How much money?
I don't think I was solely going to do it.
I think it was more going to be a company expense.
Yeah.
So technically...
Another one of your company expenses.
Keep me being a little,
I don't know.
It's a little more weird, I guess,
if I'm personally funding them.
But there was a personal clause
about you owning them for the first year.
Like at least to own.
I don't think I can do it.
It's just so you don't france off.
Back to Canada with your new set.
Would Greta be mad if you bought him?
It's, what are you planning on doing with these things?
I'm not the one doing it.
It's like, we're all in this.
Sounds more like just you, man.
Everything I heard up until this point, it was, I am going to buy these.
I am going to have this lease deal.
Not a, we are.
And now it comes time to pay him for, oh, we all are all paying.
Listen, listen, Spani.
If you want to get a top end rebuild, maybe we can help with that.
I don't want to get one, but there's a pretty sweet deal on the line.
If you don't want it, if you don't want it.
Reboot will sponsor it.
You gotta be a reboot girl then.
That is so messed up.
That is so messed up.
Reboots like monster girl is me with fake tits.
That is so messed up.
Maybe not the brand image we're going.
Virality, that's for sure, but I don't know.
It'll be viral for sure, but it's going to attract the wrong crowd, maybe.
You guys have talked about this so much, particularly Ben and Spenney.
Have you ever chat GPTed Spenny with Tits Ben?
No.
Okay.
No, I haven't.
He's got it.
Prove it.
Prove it.
He looks at every night.
Show us your history.
I'm not that infatuated with the idea of it, but Spenny is always like, oh, man.
So all I got to do to get that 50 grand is get some fake tits.
You guys don't know what it's like to have a $50,000 wage.
You're just sitting right up in the back of your head all the time.
It's on my shoulder every single day.
It's a carrot.
Just a carrot, man.
It's just a $50,000 carat.
Dangling in front of me.
Right in front of you.
Oh, man, it'd be the easiest thing I ever made.
For sure.
I don't think it would be that easy.
I think there'd be a lot of repercussions,
and it wouldn't be worth it.
I don't know if repercussions would be the word,
but I think that they would probably do some evaluation.
Yeah, you're going to have to get them taken out.
It's going to throw me off.
It's going to be riding and shit.
I'm going to get lower back problems.
And once you're going to have to move.
What if you negotiate from a 50,000 one-time payment to a 50,000 a year payment?
Oh my gosh.
Who side are you on?
Now that.
Looks like Ken's going to be chipping in with you, Ben.
Half and half.
Ken's just saying that because he knows I'm going to be working around his house a little bit hanging out.
Yeah, so are you moving in with Ken?
I don't know, Ken, what's going on with that?
I guess staying at Ken's house.
Can I come stay?
You can come stay the night.
Well, how many nights?
Can I come stay the night for the next couple months?
days?
I don't know.
How about for the next seven nights
and then do that again?
And then again.
I love.
So,
I can I stay the night
for the next couple nights?
Ken,
the house owner?
I don't know.
What do you?
I mean,
ask my designer.
Yeah.
If you're part of the fungshua.
What did you end up doing
my sword,
Ken?
Oh yeah.
I got a box for it.
It's going up in the wall this weekend.
I got a box for it so it can sit in the store.
It's a glass case.
That's a glass case.
Damn,
that's actually sick.
So now.
Now it's safe from any idiots.
If some idiots try and grab it after a few cocktails, then they have a few extra steps they have to go.
I'm most concerned about if somebody, say, Evan comes over and is this Danny little tornado?
He wants to play fruit ninja?
Yeah, he wants to play fruit ninja in my kitchen.
Let me just get this straight.
Out of your two sides of friends, because you know, you have our group of friends and then you have a whole other life with another group of friends.
You're more so concerned about someone doing something stupid with the sword from our side?
Yes.
I wouldn't worry about that.
I feel like we're all pretty safe.
Yeah, but somebody will get an idea in their head,
and then that idea just starts tumbling around until they finally get the courage to go do it,
and then it's not...
What do you think they're going to do with the sword?
Attack someone?
Stabbs some drywalls.
I don't know, do something.
If someone stabs your drywall, that's not that big of a deal.
A little patch kit.
Yeah.
Drywall is pretty easily repairable.
If they hit a 2x4.
It's a sharp sword, but it ain't chopping a 2x4.
I think it could.
Is your plumbing iron or plastic?
I don't know.
I'd rather have it be safe than have to deal with the consequences of having a loose sword and some drunk friends.
What if we just call your insurance company and tell them to just up the policy?
I don't want that.
But so you are going to mount it?
Where are you going to mount it in your house?
It's going to get mounted in the pantry.
It sounds worse.
It seems like a weird spot.
I've never seen anything mounted in the pantry.
Other than snaps.
Ryan and CJ have both been there.
They understand what it looks like.
The pantry is kind of part of the kitchen.
Okay.
It's a flow through space.
But it is arguably tucked away in a part of the house that wouldn't be seen.
There's a nice spot above your fireplace.
Let me tell you guys something.
If you get me something cool, I'll proudly display that thing.
I'll put it in my front yard.
Like, I'll do whatever I got to do to.
You know, so take this clip, give me a sweet gift.
I'll be so proud to display it.
I will say, you know how, like, the way you react to something,
like if someone makes fun of you and then you react poorly to it,
then the people are going to make fun of you more.
You react so excited when you get a gift.
Like, you're such a good recipient of a gift that, no, it's really fun to give you things.
Oh, wow.
You know, like, I mean, like, when you started getting knives,
you're like, oh, my God, I love these.
And then you started getting guns.
And you're like, holy shit, this is amazing.
And then more guns came.
So I'd be down to you.
Lab putters. Putters.
Yeah.
I thought you guys have been talking about.
I'm trying to take that lab putter out and put it to use it.
This course is almost open around here.
Yeah, I think they are.
It's going to be cold this weekend, so most people won't go.
But we're outside all the time.
This is nice.
If it's 30 degrees, we're like, this is great.
Just throw on the life-wide open mono and go hit the course.
Mono for the course, but you could.
You'd be extra warm.
We got something for the town of Cormrott coming, actually.
We ordered a massive.
marble statue of the original dog mayor duke the dog that's at the end of all of our
seboy's videos the roof-roof gonna be like what 2,500 pound marble statue is it big 4,000 it's
huge what's the one down stairs how much is that one's 4,000 no no it's not it's 2500 yeah
but it's over a tonne duke is double the size yeah well and well i think it'll be about the same
size maybe a little bit shorter six feet tall with the hat and the pedestal so like big
So sick.
Bigger than life size.
Before there was corruption.
Yeah, when it was fair.
When we had an honest politician.
Not fake numbers.
Bought and paid for a politician.
Bought and paid for, you know, back when the voters really did have a say.
Anyways, but yeah, it would be great.
I think it'll look good in the middle of town.
Yeah, we got to pay homage to Duke the legend of Cormor.
He was the actual person who put Cormoran on the map.
Yep.
Like, that guy was way more famous than us.
He was on the Today Show.
Ellen.
Ellen.
Was he?
No, he wasn't.
I wouldn't.
We can just lie and say he was.
He was on Ellen.
Ellen was kind of a me.
She got in trouble for being mean.
Yeah, she was mean.
So where's this?
It got canceled for being mean.
Where's this statue going?
In town center?
Like out on the porch or?
Right in the middle.
They're going to build a roundabout around it.
That's cool.
I'm excited to see it.
You imagine if Korma got a roundabout.
They donated it, but they made us put this roundabout in.
It's a pain in the ass.
We have one stops on here.
It's not even a four way, really.
A roundabout would be more inconvenient
But hopefully over by the community center or something, right?
We got to do like a big unveil for it
During what quorum days?
I think so.
It would be nice to have it up all summer.
Yeah, it's going to be corn run days.
Oh, yeah.
Just moved to the meeting for it a day or two ago.
Yep.
Got to ask me to get a variance.
We have the thing coming and we didn't maybe get approval yet on whether it can go
somewhere.
You know, somewhere.
Listen, just like our statue, you put it somewhere.
Nobody's going to move it.
It's too heavy.
That's true.
And I, no one's moving it.
When Justin said he was going to the meeting to see if he can get approval, I almost was just like, honestly, hopefully we get it.
But like, how can you say no to that?
I'll be stoked.
You just got to get a variance.
People get all sensitive about putting up political statues these days.
Yeah, yeah.
All of his ops that didn't agree, you know.
I just didn't agree with his policies.
I came around him at the end, but no, I never voted for that guy.
He was taking treats on the side.
Worst case scenario, if they don't accept it, you can throw them up on the pole out at the track.
Yeah, worst case, we just put them on our land somewhere.
Literally up on the pole.
Could.
Yeah, we're going to put something else up there.
We got to do that.
Very soon.
Yeah.
So, I mean, what else we got?
Can you talk about the TRX video?
Yeah, so the TRX wheelie video.
Oh, that was a grind.
And it was sick.
I feel like the anticipation for that was unbelievable.
And, uh, Brian, how do you feel?
You tried your hardest.
You did.
You did.
You can't say you didn't try.
That's maybe the worst part is I tried my hardest and didn't succeed.
And then Evan hopped in and just did it right away.
That guy just wheelies that everything, dude.
And you obviously, you understand why.
I just want you to be at peace.
You wheelie stuff too, though.
You wheelie stuff too.
Oh, you know, it's tough.
This isn't the first time this has happened.
He kind of showed me up when he did the jump, too.
Oh.
Sandrail.
You couldn't wheel.
Sandrail either. And Evan hopped in that thing.
It was going 12.
That's a little different.
That's got to be a little more disheartening.
Yeah.
No, I mean, I don't care who took the game winning shot.
I'm just glad.
You're glad you're on the same.
I'm just glad it worked out.
Dude, we were so fired up.
You can't imagine how happy we were.
What I'm most pissed about is I wasn't there to experience it.
That would have just been such a good team celebration that I'm really bummed about that.
Because it was like it was dead in the water.
We were going to buy a different truck.
Yeah.
We're going to resort back to a Ford Ranger
because a Ford Rangers never once let us down.
And then an hour later, I get this video.
CJ, your snap is so good.
It does look real.
It looks like AI.
It does look AI.
We were so happy.
We were so happy.
The one thing he did do differently from you, Ryan,
is he break boosted.
Not sure how much that helped,
but ultimately, the racking was just built better.
And we had that second.
tub way in the back.
Because when I was driving around
to go turn around
in the driveway because of the sun,
it was...
How many times did he wheelie?
Like five?
Yeah, five, six.
And then he wheelied it up the hill.
Here, Ryan, let me show you this video, dude.
Oh, my gosh.
This is so fucking awesome, dude.
It looks like it went down so nice, too.
It's so smooth, too,
because, like, the front suspension is still Baja.
But I'll explain the true reason that it worked
was before it was just connected kind of the hitch
and then hanging off the bed.
And it just kept bending.
It bent the rack, bent the bed.
bent the bed and then the frame
they triangulated they put one
more bar from the bottom of the rack
to the axle
and the reason we didn't want to originally do that
is because we're like how much stuff are we just trying to
weld onto this thing? It would have been
but we ended up. That was the move.
They took the shocks out obviously you tried a few
with that but once they triangulated it
yeah so no rear suspension
just full rigid rear end
oh the picking it back up
is awesome.
Oh that was so good
Dude, how darnly is this?
It was so scary.
The way he just...
Yeah, Mike was in there with him.
He just kept hammering on it.
Like, I thought you were good.
Nothing.
You can't see anything.
And Evan just...
Whop!
Whop!
And we're going like 80.
He said we're going 7580.
That's so awesome.
Dude, we were thinking we were going to have to chalk it up as a fail.
Right before Evan, we were like, if this doesn't work, it's probably going to be...
We might have to actually accept an L.
And then it worked.
And it's just crazy because going into this idea,
We're like, this is a rather simple concept.
It's like you're building, you know, obviously there's a lot of work involved in building it and all that.
But in theory, it's like you're just putting weight there.
It's going to pick it up.
It's just going to work.
Like, it's very simple.
And we had a hell of a time.
Yeah, when we originally got that red TRX before we even jumped it, like the legendary 75 foot jump.
That was on the board.
Let's take it to the track.
We'll do some mobbing around and then we'll bring it back to the shop and then we'll make it wheelie.
Like we were planning on doing it all a part of like one video.
Yeah.
And then the jump ended up cooking it obviously.
It blew out the diff and everything.
So it got postponed for a while.
But we thought we were going to have to call in the big dog Ford Ranger to do the TRX dirty work.
So have one last chance.
It's just awesome to see someone else live in your dream, you know?
He was fine.
Like it would have been more fun for you to do it.
But it's at least something.
It's nice to see someone else doing it.
And I'm just happy to get a good team win out of it.
Like, I think the people are going to be stoked.
Yeah, there's definitely, like, a build-up to it, though.
Like, when you, we felt like we worked so hard for it or there was such anticipation that when it did it, it was just a hundred times better than if it would have just worked right away.
Right off the get.
When's the last time we had a video that we had to chalk up as an out?
It didn't work.
Genuinely good question.
It's been a while.
Are we actually, like.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah.
Has there ever been a bit that was filmed and never used?
Yes to that.
But like when it comes to it particularly not work.
A title thumbnail status.
I'm sure we got to have had one that was like planning on being a title thumbnail
and it just didn't work.
And we shifted it to be like a B or C.
One time we had ordered like this Amazon 250 dirt bike.
You're right.
Yep.
And we were going to do like a testing vid.
And the thing was literally such a piece of shit.
I think we made like two minutes of it.
And we used it in like the middle of a video.
Yeah.
I think the nice thing is is like for the most part,
we can normally make something whether it works or not just because it just boils down to like our attitude going into it if we're having fun joking around like you know whether it works or not
I'm interested seeing the final edit because we were down yeah we were down when it broke the time when I was leaving man we were down there was such hope in the air and we were just crushed so I'm excited to see it I hope you guys liked it good team win a good team win
That brought the team together after that one.
A lot of emotions in that one.
And that's why I think we should have a team bonding pool night
where we hang out, shoot some pool, some people drink some beer,
some people drink some water, whatever you want.
Reboot.
Not go to fucking Vegas and do that shit sober.
Dude, Jack's in the background, throw his hands up.
So no party bus.
He's like we already upgraded the bus.
We go on the party bus?
Jack already committed all of us.
15 people already hop off off.
Did these guys go?
Would you actually?
Yeah.
I'll meet up and buy you a beer.
I'll meet up and buy you a beer.
I'll meet you too old to go.
Yeah, I don't want to crash at 21-year-old's birthday party.
Yeah, that's fine.
Meet us in D.L.
There you go.
Meet us there.
Maybe just meet us there.
Also, state the tables in the back.
Not that you mention your age.
You know what, just drive yourself.
Meet us there.
We'll say hi when we walk in.
Just buys around drinks to start with.
Oh, yeah.
Sorry, my bosses wanted to come.
It's okay.
They're like pretty cool.
They'll make a bunch of jokes you want to understand.
No motion, but they're cool.
No motion, but they're cool.
They're learning the motion.
What's your agenda tonight, Ken?
Tell the viewers what Ken Jimino Matthew's weekend looks like
because you kind of do your own thing on the walls.
Tonight, tonight I might go run a mile on the treadmill
and then cook some dinner and watch some TV and go to bed.
Who are you cooking for?
Bangor.
Me, myself and I.
Do you have an extra steak for Spenny?
You got an extra room?
Maybe thaw one out.
You got an extra steak in a room?
I might.
What do you mean?
You might.
So cryptic.
I might be able to get you a steak.
I might have a room for.
Can you or not?

Thanks, Fundera.
I just got a thought, but yeah.
Ken's got a bunch of thoughties.
We actually, we got something planned for tomorrow.
Really?
Oh.
we got to go deliver the boat car for prom.
Oh, true.
Oh, yeah, we're trying to make this kid's prom as lit.
Dude, we should make it as lit as that.
Yeah, we should actually pull up and rip it.
Pull up with all the rigs.
Yeah, Grandpa Ron's neighbor, Alex.
Yeah, so, okay, so Grandpa Ron's neighbor.
You should actually make it lit like that.
I'm down.
Let's go.
If we're going to Fargo, though, I need like three hours to hit Shields.
What if you wore Evans Mancini that he wore
the video, the Super Bowl video.
Oh, do that.
Surprise him with it.
You just kind of be in the background and be part of the celebration.
It just adds to the chaos.
I'm down.
But only if I can hit Shields first.
Right.
So the kid that originally took his driver's test in the boat car
wants to take it to prom.
I feel like it's a full circle moment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So he, he, uh, yeah.
He, uh, yeah.
Fucking punked.
Yeah.
I think the least we can do it.
Yeah.
He's a little bit.
He's a great kid too.
So he, yeah, he asked if he could take the Bocard prom.
I was like, absolutely.
So it's supposed to be freezing, which isn't optimal for a vehicle that doesn't have a roof.
But I don't think he's going to mind.
He's going to get more attention in that if he showed.
Like, if he showed up in your Porsche, it'd be one thing.
But showing up in that boat car is going to be insane at that high school.
Dude, I want a legendary pull up.
Like the sparklers, I want boombox going.
I want the whole neighborhood out.
in the street, filming on their phone.
Celebrating.
His mom crying.
Can we get all that?
Can we line that up by tomorrow?
And have like a big thing and just make it lit form.
All right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We got to make a whole thing.
Hood problem.
I'm waiting for Druski to do a skit.
What was your guys' take on the whole Drusky spoof on Erica Kirk?
Oh, was it on her?
I'm just kidding.
Like, yeah, we never explicitly said it was like about her.
And then I thought it was hilarious.
Yeah, I thought it was pretty funny.
And then, you know, I mean, that's, like, definitely not the first time he's been attempted to be canceled.
Yeah, so he was, like, they were trying to come after him pretty heavy for that, which.
And he's, I mean, it was just like it was a parody.
Like, it was a joke.
And he's like, I'm gonna keep doing it.
It's all right.
Yeah.
I think crying about that one is just as bad about, it's crying about something else.
You know, like, it kind of makes you look like a post if you can't take a joke.
I think that both ways should be able to crack jokes.
Yeah.
They can crack jokes on that.
And then the other people can, you know, I think you got to be able to let it both ways.
I don't know if it's like a law,
but yeah, I agree.
Like being able to parody,
like legally there's a definition of what the parody is
and what you can get away with.
And I think you should be able to do it on all ends of the spectrum.
I think it's like freedom of speech.
Like obviously we've seen when you can't say something
or you get so censored, how lame that is.
And so like it kind of, you know, it goes both ways.
It was either Theo or Matt McCusker said,
if you can't make a joke about it, you know something's wrong, both legally and, like,
culturally.
If part of the world can't come together to laugh at something, you know it's a problem.
How about the whole megachurch viral video that he made to where he was kind of, he was obviously
making a parody on, like, the megachurch leader?
It was, it was one guy that he was kind of going after.
Not Kenneth Copeland.
It wasn't that, but it was the one guy that was like, I got everything.
Everyone here funding.
You didn't actually say this,
but he was like,
I'm buying a Louis bag.
And everyone's like,
yeah.
There's the real video of the priest talking about,
like,
how he needs a new PJ or something like that.
Yeah,
because you can't fly out of the devil,
but it's just crazy because it's like,
it just seems like no matter what people
will take advantage of a situation,
you know,
in every aspect,
like.
Right.
And not everyone,
obviously,
but there's just people that.
And that's,
I think what you have to understand is he's like,
I mean,
me,
like as a churchgoer, as a Christian,
I'm not offended by that one bit
because he's going after like corrupt people
who are essentially stealing from good people.
So I find it really funny,
but there's plenty of churchgoers who are like
he's doing that like he's pretending to be a pastor
like while he's pretending to be a corrupt
mega church pastor.
Which is a fucking problem.
I get this guy, this pastor's shepherd.
If you think filling up the car with gas is expensive,
he should try filling up the ministry playing with fuel.
It wasn't cheap before the unrest in the Middle East caused the prices to skyrocket.
Now it is incredibly expensive to keep the Jesus plane in the air.
I need you to dig deeper and give more than you've ever given before in the ministry.
Give until it hurts a little.
What?
I can't keep doing ministry across the nation without the plane in the air.
You saw the lines at TSA on your social media.
I would spend half my time in an airport.
I couldn't pray in a crowded airport and listen to God's direction.
So dig deeper.
I know it will hurt.
That's when the blessings flow
Bro, this is like a cold
Well done, my good and faithful servant
Now here are your blessings
And that right there is what I mean by
That was real
That was a real video
That is insane
That was crazy
Dig deeper, I know it'll hurt a little
His latest one is in front of a slot machine
I'm really intrigued
How does anyone get behind this?
What?
He's trying to turn to $1 donation
No, this can't be real
He's trying to turn
The donation money.
He's got to be joking.
But I just saw the plane one a while back and I was like, damn.
That's crazy.
Did you guys see that Druski was out sledding with Turkey?
Oh, yeah.
That was random and cool.
Dude, Drusky went snowmobiling with Turcotte.
Why?
Like hanging out in the backcountry.
I don't know.
They were like, he was out there with all of his boys and they.
I don't know like a clinic.
Yeah, they went on a clinic or something.
And they were like, Brett was teaching them how to sled.
And doing crazy backcountry like freestyle.
for them. Yeah, Brett was like putting on like a, like a hitting a natty jump doing like backflips and
stuff and they were all filming it and shit.
When was this?
It was.
Dude, that's one thing I cannot see Drusky doing is snowmobiling in the back country.
Yeah, I was like within the last couple months.
No, he was in the back country snowmobiling with Brett.
It was so sick.
It was really cool.
Drusky's fucking funny though, dude.
Yeah, he is.
He's funny.
Yeah, I feel bad.
I haven't even like really watched his show.
But what's the show where he has like people come up at the table?
Have been love?
Gosh, dang.
Like, I've only seen clips.
But, dude, so funny when some dude rolls up and he just immediately starts roasting him.
But then he's, like, laughing with him.
He really is a good actor.
So funny.
So, yeah, we're looking for a new candidate to do the dating show with.
Within the squad or with that?
Yeah.
I think, well, there's not that many people that we can put in a dating situation.
Ken, found love.
Didn't work out.
Shred 80.
found love.
Didn't work out.
We got the other GAV.
Wrench Gav.
That's true.
Big Grench is married.
I wouldn't hate seeing it with Rich.
I think that might be kind of funny.
Uncle Rich?
I believe he's single.
Uncle Rich might be kind of funny.
He's so different, but he's a known character.
Yeah, I'm sure he would love it too.
He tried to take them all home.
Yeah.
Okay.
Well, we got to think on that.
We do got to think on that.
I do love when we do the dating segments.
It's super funny.
For Rich, if they can't smoke a pack of a
American spirits.
They're not for him.
The chick comes in.
Hey, he's a idiotic.
Ken, would you want to run it back?
I think I didn't find what I was looking for the first time and I don't, I don't know
if I'm going to find it the second time.
I mean, I think we got to go into different pastures for that.
No, Ken, that was on us.
That was, that was just.
Well, the group, you know, I thought I picked the one I wanted and then, you know,
it wasn't wanted.
Just didn't work out.
Ken, we'll find him.
I think I'd like to see Rich.
I think Rich would be a fun one to watch.
All right.
Well, step one is not wanting to do the dating show, so it sounds like we're on the right track.
He did say we're looking in the wrong pastures, so maybe like farm animals or what do you mean?
Are you getting into the heavy girls?
No.
Holy shit, Ryan, that was aggressive.
Cows?
They live in pastures.
He's talking about pastors.
I'm thinking animals and you go to there.
That's almost as wild as Ben saying the Johnny Sins line in the last vid.
Geez.
I don't think it's that wow, but...
I liked it.
It was funny, but...
It was funny.
It was crazy.
We did not expect it.
Yeah, I don't know.
I don't know if I would have referenced Johnny Sins in any of my jokes.
I don't know if I would do that.
Let alone, it was like...
Like, what was the line?
Like, what was Johnny Sins doing in the back of your mind that you had to reference them?
I don't know.
It just seemed like a meme or something.
The line was, the line was, this was like dropping off your wife at Johnny Sins' house.
were like, holy shit.
Leaving my car with Kletas to bag on.
He was just saying that his GT3RS was going to get put through the ringer.
Yeah, essentially.
Because he knows how Kletas can drive.
True, but I mean, he's the type of, and you know this.
Like, you felt very confident leaving with him.
You're like, it's good content, whatever.
Like, he's a type of-
Come back happy.
He's a type of guy to give your car back if it were broken better than it was.
He'd fix it.
Before it was broke.
Yeah, before it was a little bottom-in-old.
I don't know.
I think he's also.
the type of guy to just kind of just tell you it how it is and just be like, deal's a deal,
brother.
Yeah.
I knew what I was getting myself into too.
I love how confident you could have broke my car.
You shook the hand, brother.
You're like, what's on the line?
He just goes, shave an eyebrow.
Like, so confident.
Like, okay, well, I'm not doing that.
That would sound.
You would look crazy.
Oh, yeah, I pictured it for a while.
You had dashes.
You had your mullet.
Eyebrows take a long time to grow back.
Yeah, I would have had to have just committed to the bit and dropped them both.
Yeah, yeah.
Like, what's worse?
One eyebrow or neither?
I'd say one.
Drop both.
Yeah, you'd have to drop both.
You'd always be talking to the camera like this.
Dude, do you want to know something that I think about a lot?
What, Spenny?
How my kids are going to be one day.
Do you guys ever think about that?
What if you have a shitty kid?
Well, I more so think about, like, it's probably more so how you raise it.
I don't know.
I mean, yes, to an extent, but I think,
Just the fact that you're already thinking about it this hard means that they won't be shitty.
I do think that.
You never know.
No, I know you never know.
And it all comes down to who they're hanging out with.
It does.
True.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it really does.
Just look how shitty fucking Ryan Hunt turned out because of us.
I'm just kidding.
If you wouldn't have such-
Come on, don't be picking on Ryan.
Well, that was more of a dig on us as well saying that we were-
We picked on them too hard last pod.
No, no, no, no, I'm fine.
I would have been cooked, dude.
If I didn't find you guys, I would have been.
I could just see the road I was heading down.
Explain the note.
What do you think you would be like?
So fucking lame.
Like you guys say.
What do you think you'd be doing right now?
I don't know.
Jim teacher.
No.
I could see you working at a bank.
Ah, no.
Like you got out of college.
You have a degree and then you end up like, I don't know.
You got to be smart to work at a bank.
No, you got to be smart to be an architect.
I probably would have just done things.
Just existed.
What kind of thing?
I mean, I did landscaping before.
You're saying you'd be blue collar?
Yeah, I mean, I did landscaping construction.
Probably, I probably would have tried to just work my way up in that direction.
You think you would have been blue collar?
I think it would have been blue collar with the intent to get a foreman stand.
I think it would have been the goal.
To run the clipboard?
I would have been trying to run the clipboard eventually.
Run the clipboard at the collared shirt.
You got to cut your teeth for a while, lifting block.
What do you think you'd be doing, Ben, if you weren't doing this right now?
Just have a business of some sort.
I was pretty committed to never working for anyone ever again after working for Dave.
God bless Dave.
What about you?
I don't know what sector, though.
Don't know what the path.
I mean, it's so hard to even just pull it out of the left field and be like,
oh, I would be doing this right now.
Dude, I don't know what I would be doing.
Stay at home, dad.
I probably wouldn't have as much of a business mindset.
I think you'd still be a business owner.
Yeah, maybe.
I think you'd own a gym.
Yeah, maybe.
I could see Ryan being a stay.
at home dad.
That'd be pretty lit.
That'd be sick.
Yeah.
Like a good stay at home dad, though, like a really good one.
Promise I'm not that good of a cook.
Yeah.
I could learn.
You would be good.
You'd be good.
Stay at home dog dad.
So like before starting the YouTube channel, I had dropped out of school and I was trying
to find a job.
I was either trying to get a job at this place that sells shoes at the mall.
And then I also applied at the gym that I ended up working at.
But I was like pretty much chalking up like, I don't know what.
I'm probably just.
going to be a guy just like trying to get by.
So like, yeah, it worked out really good for me.
But I feel like that's pretty standard for a lot of people.
It's hard to find what you, what path you want to go.
Like, it is hard.
Just think.
Just think. And this is like maybe some advice.
But I was like, I'm going to try this YouTube thing just because I feel like I have
nothing to lose.
Yeah.
Also, you know, having great people around me and everything.
But I could see you also.
If you weren't sitting right here, I could see you trying to be.
If the first channel didn't work, I could see you continuing at it.
Like, you always had such a vision for YouTube and stuff like that.
Like, I could see you taking a few Ls before chalking it up.
Yeah, I mean, I realistically looking at it, like, I remember I kind of always just wanted to be at YouTube.
Mike would have been a DJ.
Ryan, you could.
In a perfect world, the DJ, in a not perfect world, probably like a rapper.
Car rapper, that is.
Car, a people.
You don't think that you'd be a graphic designer.
It would entail both of those things.
It'd be like I would wrap stuff and design wraps.
I feel like they go kind of hand in hand.
They do.
And it's just like when a lot of people like,
oh,
I want my rig to be cool.
I'd be like,
I can help you with that.
Yeah.
I love doing that.
Parts specialist.
I love doing it so much.
I've said that before.
But like when we did the race quads,
I love,
like I get to order parts for that.
Like that one's fun.
Get all the cool parts,
all the cool colors,
all the cool powder,
and then make it cool.
I think giving that to a customer,
you know,
you got somebody like,
yeah,
whatever it takes.
They hand you 20 grand and you build them a sick ass whatever.
When I was like 15 or 16 years old,
I was like dating, hanging out with like this girl that her dad was like a serial entrepreneur.
And he had 30 subways, a jewelry store, a construction business, an accounting firm.
Like he had his hand in so many different businesses.
And I just remember realizing like he isn't like that overly smart.
He's not like that much like above and beyond, but he's so successful.
And then just being like, that's who I want to be.
Like if I could be anyone, it would be this guy.
Because he was just always chilling too, like come down to their lake house and just be like
chilling on like a Friday through Monday.
And, you know, he'd just be like running it from his phone.
It's been like, that guy has it figured out.
He's playing on like such a different level where he's like, he's able to operate without being involved.
And that was like the first time that I'd seen somebody be a part of these businesses without being like in the weeds of them like running them day to day.
Like we probably know so many different business owners that, you know, you deem is like successful. And then like the more you grow up, they just have like their business that they've worked at for 40 years. They built it up from the ground up. But they're still like very much involved in it. And never like really scaled much farther than having like one or two employee, which is great. And you know, you can.
create a great living from it. But to see that at like such a young age of just like this guy
operating on such a different scale, like it like changed my mindset on what was possible and like
what I wanted to do. And the only way to achieve that was to be like an entrepreneur.
There's so many different levels to it. I think that's like you thought you maybe. Oh yeah.
I mean, like your definition of success after seeing what he was like was like, you know.
Oh, it just opened open up your eyes. So.
much like oh wow like you got thought this person was like at the top of the food chain and they're
in the middle yeah 100% it was just so eye opening and i just remember after that i was just like oh
i just i want to do business in some former fashion and after seeing this guy like you don't have
to have one facet you can have your hands in different pieces of business and grow them and uh
getting the right people in the right spots i guess to do so but yeah that that
that changed my life.
I think if we could leave.
And he had a sick Porsche that was really fast.
Very first.
I talked about that in the video when I got my GT3RS.
I said the very first fast car I ever drove was a Porsche.
And when I was 16 years old, this guy, I looked up to him so much.
He liked cars and he had a Porsche 9-11 TurboS.
And I just remember asking him, dude, can I get a ride in this car?
This is a sweet car.
I didn't really know much about him.
And he was like, yeah, no point.
problem and we walk out to it and he throws me the keys and he's like you're driving i was like what it's
it's like the first person i'd ever seen like have a crazy expensive car and not care much about it yeah
not care too much about it yeah like not being like nobody touch it exactly right yep yep and uh
which was like another eye opening moment of like oh wow this guy's that's when you know they're a ball
yeah he's got motion they have the Lamborghini and they park it in between two cars up front
Dude, I would say you guys are that for me.
Like, I had never driven a fast car until I came here.
And then Ryan's like, dude, oh, yeah, take my vet.
Take my vet to Zorba's.
And I'm like, like, sure?
Yeah, like, is that chill?
Yeah, for sure.
Like, dude, you guys are like that.
Because, like, you know, we've met a lot of people that are maybe like more pretentious
or like just care too much about material shit that doesn't matter.
And like we're so hard on our stuff.
You can't be much harder.
You're probably not going to be much harder.
It's probably safer in your hands.
But yeah, I remember I'm throwing the keys to me and being like, yeah, you're driving.
And then we get it out on the road.
And he's like, take it right right here.
And we're like, get on like this back road.
And he's like, all right, stop.
Put your foot on the brake.
Floor it and then let off the brake.
And it was like the first time I'd ever launch the car.
So.
And then launched it.
And like turbo S's are fast.
Fast.
Yeah.
So it's like 060 and I think like 2.7 seconds or something like that.
especially back then, dude, there was nothing out there like that.
And, yeah, he was like, pretty sweet, huh?
I was like, yeah, pretty sweet.
Changed my life.
That was like a big pivotal moment.
You know what that reminds me of is I'm sure that guy doesn't even know, like,
how much kind of inspiration or like how he kind of unlocked your mind.
Yeah.
I remember, like, it would have been probably four or five years ago.
We were eating at the pub and he had been there, him and his buddy Snowfield there.
And he went up, hey, how's it going?
you know because like you're still chill whatever just said hey to him and whatever and then like the guy
that was sitting there with him asked if you still had your Lamborghini oh yeah and he goes wait
you have a Lamborghini because i like didn't see him i you know yeah from like 16 till that would
have been what two years ago yeah 22 so like i didn't see him for eight years and then yeah popped
up and i mean a text me a picture actually after this of uh of my portion
and say thanks for
yeah thanks for thanks for thanks for uh getting me on to porches 10 years ago yeah that's
that's pretty cool i think that's cool like we just meet so many different people that like
raise your bar on different aspects of life dude just goes to show you're the sum of the people
you hang around yeah like if you hang around people that are constantly trying to sabotage their
life like you're going to start doing that you know or people that are just they're going to drag you
down yep so like you always want to i guess just hang around good people and
that that's what it comes down to like on this channel like dude straight up you were talking about if
you didn't know us like i feel the same way for all of you guys like like having you guys as my
friends is why i have any kind of success like straight up so it just goes to show and keep good
company around you and you're definitely going to have a lot better odds great advice honestly
i think that it's it's also a lot easier once you get a little bit of momentum to like keep that
momentum in your life and keep attracting those types of people into your life where like at the
start it's a lot more difficult but like i mean it just takes like the little bit of spark
at the beginning to get inspired or or you know have this person that you look up to like really
open your mind up to it and then like once you do start meeting people and opening doors they kind of just
it comes easier and uh that's something that we've learned especially with like the other
YouTubers that we've got to hang out with that are doing it on another level than we were,
or that we are still too. There's always another level to it. And there's always like something to
aspire to. And I guess the YouTubers are just the realm that we're in. So that's what's relatable to
us. But whatever realm you're in, there's always somebody that's doing it bigger than you.
Don't look at them as competition or or look at them as like jealousy. Look at them of like, man,
what can I learn from this person or what can I take away from this person that can just
help me or grow me in 5% because there's a reason that people are doing it on on bigger scales.
Like you just have to open your eyes to it.
Yeah, and learn, learn from them.
I can't remember where I heard it.
It's a make the most of every lucky opportunity and work really hard in between.
Like you just take these little bits of luck and then you just grind through the middle of it.
I mean, you guys fucking knew the week we had and how shitty things can be.
You know, like TRX is not working and stuff like that.
Like you can really get down and then you catch a little, you catch a win.
Taxes.
You catch a win and you just keep trying to build off it and learning from other people
and learning how they handle what things.
How luck is really, I mean, luck is luck.
Luck's cool.
I don't know if it's real or not.
But luck is when your preparedness meets an opportunity.
Ooh.
Absolutely.
Did you hear that in a motocross movie, Mike?
Probably.
I didn't come up with that.
I swear I heard that in a motor movie.
Or there's a lot of that.
Or there's a saying the harder you work, the luckier you get.
This is true, too.
What are we going to say, money?
Oh, successful people also don't, like, gatekeep information.
They're not trying to keep you down.
Yeah.
So you just got to, like, learn to ask the right questions.
Yeah.
Because if they were gatekeeping, that means whatever their gatekeeping is their one,
that's, they're holding on their one thing that makes them successful.
And if that thing were to go away, then would they be successful?
Yeah, dude, there's enough.
Yeah, enough success to go around.
success to go around.
Cleets set it.
Rising Tides, raises all boats.
Yeah.
You know?
That's like an abundance mindset.
An abundance mindset.
I would actually truly love if there were more big YouTubers doing big things on YouTube right now.
Like, I feel like there's kind of a lack of it compared to other times on YouTube.
And the reason why I say that, like, I would love there was a bunch of other big channels that were constantly posting and doing crazy insane shit because it would just bring more people onto the platform.
and whether they came to watch our video or not,
our video would get suggested later on somewhere down the line
and it would help us.
And that's a prime example of rising tides, raises all boats.
And I love when you ask,
oh, who else do you watch on YouTube?
I love when people just rip a list.
Yeah.
I mean, I watch Cleodis, Weston, you know, whistling,
and they go down the line and I love like the more people they watch.
I'm like, oh, you're tapped in.
That's sick.
I'm flattered too if they're like, just you guys,
you guys are the best.
I love that too, of course.
Spenny was telling me that the other day too like he's always thought that way and like how do you like share
knowledge with like other moto guys to like raise the sport to get more eyeballs in because that
brings in more money for sponsors and then everyone eats more yeah like imagine I'm a pro racer and
there's a 10th place guy that's taken a thousand dollar deal and I go to a company and I'm a fifth
place guy and I go for a thousand dollar deal and they're like oh why would we pay you this if we're
paying this guy that like the riders are so like gatekeep to like their deals and they don't want
to like share with each other and they could be making each other more money by sharing info and
building off of each other. First place guy could be like I want 10. Yeah and then a fifth place guy goes with
a better following and is like I'll do 10 for this and they're like well this guy's winning and you're
just going to make a video but then you're like yeah the video is going to get a million views why would
we pay you 10 when we can just have the first place guy like the more people you can talk to and
build off of the better it makes it for everyone literally it's so true it really is so true and
and not even just like the youtube space i would say like applying for a job even ask around it's
scary stuff to ask people yeah it's just an abundance mentality it is yeah that's the thing i think
that's probably one of the things i would say pretty much all the successful people that we meet have
yeah they're not trying to protect it and i'd say pretty much not
Not all of them have it, but pretty much all of them do.
Good advice, fellas.
Yeah, I like leaving the people at home with something.
It took a turn I wasn't expecting.
If we're hitting this bus or playing pool and drinks on.
I better go get some reboot into me because I'm feeling sleepy, boys.
All right, well, thanks for listening, guys.
