But they were like, you should tell Ken to drop out.
And I'm like, I do embarrassing stuff.
I mean, pretty much for a living.
But I knew that was wrong.
Like, that's something I don't stand by.
Like, what the hell were we doing?
So stupid.
So fun, though.
We're living in stimulation right now.
I kind of ruined his birthday.
No, I absolutely, like, messed up.
I made a mistake.

Lifewide Open podcast.
We got Jake in the house.
Thanks for having me, boys.
It's good to be back.
Welcome, Jake.
We got Ben with his new hat on.
We got Ken in front of the cameras.
It's a beautiful thing.
We're weird.
Dead center, Ken.
Legitimately not sure who's doing the ads on this podcast today.
Yeah, where's Ryan?
Where's Ryan?
Well, he's in New York.
spending all of his ad money.
Dude, Ryan has got that secret pocketbook, doesn't he?
Yeah, I don't even think it's a secret.
I think he's just rubbing it in our face at this point.
I haven't seen a dollar from this podcast.
I've been doing it for four years.
I thought we were reinvesting for the longest time,
but then I realized all we had was this table and a few chairs.
We're investing in our setup and we don't have anything.
We have this shitty TV that doesn't work half the time.
It's not even there.
I don't know what I'm pointing to that.
I just noticed the ad money from the podcast comes from Ryan's account.
No, I don't know.
seen money well no it gets deposited like a couple like 20 30 bucks at a time from
ryan's account really what oh we might have to look more into this is it just going straight
into you no i think it goes straight into his account and then divvies it up you guys are getting like
three bucks not even worth it i we just straight up sit down just to catch up this is right i was like
yeah some that's all we're doing it is this is no hate because i think if we didn't have the following
we did and we started a podcast i get
fed like podcasts on YouTube that it's like new podcast from so on you know never heard of it and it
has like 15 views I'm like man dude they're just doing it for the love of the game yeah that's tough
well most podcasts don't make it past seven podcasts yeah yeah I think like 95% of podcast what number
are we all know 100 and something 100 and like 40 you know three bucks though it's not bad I mean it's
like three hot dog sales for you mike it's true yeah dude that was super fun so a lot of hot dogs
And I think half the reason I sold them
Is because they knew who we were
The other half was because they were a dollar
I do have to say like if you want to try that
And get a hot dog stand and you're single
I sold more hot dogs to females than I did
Yeah dude I couldn't believe it
They really were interested
They were and then like there was something about like
Who's Mike and then I'm Mike
And then it was like your mic
Yeah
The one girl that was like this is your hot dog stand mic
Mike that happened like two or three times though
It was just like really caught on camera well once
but, God, that was funny.
That was funny.
People were loving it.
The branding was incredible.
I had no part in that.
You guys killed it.
I was actually pretty proud of that one.
I'd been trying to find a hot dog stand for you for the last, like, two months.
I mean, we've been talking about, obviously, Mike's hot dog addiction for a long time here.
But I've been trying to bring it to light.
Honestly, I wanted to go to New York and have you do it in New York, but there was just a lot more complications with that.
So, yeah, I've been looking for a hot dog stand for, like, straight up since.
the beginning of summer and uh that one popped up i at first i was like i don't know it kind of
seems random that it's just like a early 1900s car turned into a little but it was perfect but it ended up
being perfect because i i saw one that was kind of like a ice cream cart bike but it was it was shaped
like a hot dog it's funny but i like the model t looking car way more fits you it's great it's your brand
the business model is great unless you're making high on your own supply you definitely went
backwards, didn't you?
No, I, realistically, I ate three hot dogs.
Like, you know, I wasn't just ate three hot.
We were out there for an hour.
We were out there for an hour.
Realistic, I just ate three hot dogs.
Because I didn't want to get a tummy ache.
I had to pull that thing around.
That's true.
So I ended up doing the math at the end of the night.
Slinging hot dogs is just for the love of the game and getting these hot dogs out
into the world and not about the money for you.
I knew that, but I really knew it when we were wrapping up and you
left the cash box on top of the hot dog stand and it was loaded up on the trailer about to head
down the highway and I was like I better do one last once over on this thing and the cash box
is sitting there open at the top I was like oh Mike really is not concerned about the money he just
made I wasn't because like realistically there was like $40 in there no there was it was 140 and I put
100 into it change I gave you change I was nice I gave him the business and I gave him change
And then you were down 80 bucks
I didn't take it
You know what
Speaking of the money going back
Into the company
I just I left it
I knew that wasn't for me
That was for the love of the game
Reinvested company
In just better equipment
Maybe you'll get a truck
That drives under its own power now
No that was pretty funny though
I had just made a purchase
Facebook marketplace purchase
That morning
And I had a bunch of cash in my pocket
And that's like whip it out
You guys are like what the
Why do you have like five grand on you
Because he's money Mike
I didn't question it one bit.
I was like, of course he has five grand on him.
Mike went and bought a skate park.
I saw it, dude.
I rolled up to the shop, but I'm like,
you know Mike's been on Facebook marketplace
when you show up and there's a skate park
on a couple trailers.
Like a whole used skate park.
Like it was a city.
It must have been, yeah, exactly.
Like they had a city skate park and they just were getting rid of it.
And Mike bought it, bought every ramp.
It just kept coming with more and more trailers of these things.
Like one trailer load to the,
the brim as much as I could get on it, then another goose neck, then another even bigger
goose neck, full of skate ramps.
Like, it's a full skate park.
Dude, Mike, you are just living the absolute dream.
I'll tell you that.
You spend your money how anyone in your position would imagine that they would spend their
money.
So I don't have a super car.
I love it.
I roll up to the shop, just trying to find you guys.
No one's there.
But I see Gavin with a ramp like 10 feet in the air.
And I'm like, what's going on here?
What's this?
And he goes, I don't know.
Mike bought something, I guess.
It's a pretty serious skate park.
Yeah.
It is.
When I picked it up, the biggest drop in on it is eight feet.
I haven't even dropped in on a six foot quarter.
Dude, you and Evan, I've seen you guys ride skateboard.
Let's see.
Probably the last three years pretty heavily, right?
You are actually getting somewhere.
Evan has not progressed one bit.
This dude, I've seen him probably try a hundred.
Thousands.
Yeah, a thousand kickflips.
Has not landed a single one.
Dude, I'm not a skateboarder,
so I can't really throw stones.
But, like, you would think after a while,
after three years,
there would be a little progress made.
I well agree.
Evan is so good at everything,
but skateboarding.
He works his ass off, dude.
He's just not built, like, a skateboarder.
Well, he's a lot better than most people.
Well, he's a lot better than anyone who else doesn't skateboard.
But, like, for someone who skates for three,
you know, honestly, his whole life.
Because he's a BMXer.
Oh.
So, like, I always just.
give him the benefit of the doubt.
But, I mean, yeah, he's definitely not progressing.
But, well, then he saw the size of the ramps.
The whole reason that the skate park was being sold and it was because it was too big.
I believe it.
The ramps were too tall.
And then he saw the size of it.
He's like, dude, I'm trying to BMX this.
I'm like, yeah, whatever you want.
Are you worried at all the ramps are going to be a little narrow?
Or maybe there was just like they're in weird sections.
You always want them to be wider.
You know, it's like when you build a half pipe, usually you build it eight feet wide.
Sometimes 12.
12's good.
16 is like the money shot, but usually they're eight feet wide.
Yeah, I don't know.
We'll see that they're really slippery.
That's what I'm worried about.
They're like actually, like, if you stand up on top and, like, just try to run down them, you'll just.
For sure.
We'll see.
We'll probably end up riding e-bikes and pit bikes.
Where are we going to put these things?
We'll put in the merch bay.
Oh, really?
Until.
Ken?
No.
I think, it was Ben's idea.
I think if we got the room, we're going to put it in there.
At the new merch shop, that'd be actually kind of sick.
Yeah, we're going to put it in there for the winter.
And then as soon as it fills up.
Oh, winter.
I thought maybe a more fills up
Which is only fair
As the business expands
Yeah you can take Mike's ramps out one by one
No I'm not trying to keep it in there
And like prohibit us from
Expanding our merch
That's actually a pretty good spot
Yeah
It's a pretty good spot for it
We tried growing the business
But then Mike bought a skate park
Next thing you know he's charging admission
There's like six bucks you can come in and skate for the day
Everyone's back there just skating
And Ken is like
So over it he can't hear shit
Loud music.
People graffeting.
90s grunge and spainting cans.
It is.
That's the other.
The upside is that they're metal.
The downside is that they're metal.
So when you're skating,
you get that kind of,
that sound on everything.
But,
dude,
they were sitting in the woods for 10 years,
but they have like rubber eyes like a playground.
So like they're pretty chilling.
Yeah,
you can maybe get them like seal coated.
Yeah.
I don't know.
We'll have to paint over something.
But home pit next.
Yeah.
That'd actually be great.
I think that'd be sweet.
I love it, Mike.
I think it's great.
You're just a big playground around here.
It's just a grown-up playground.
So when you were like, I'm buying a skate park, I was like, that's a great idea.
Of course you should.
You weren't even like, yeah, do you think like, we should all buy it?
Didn't even ask.
Mike was just like, yo, I'll fork out the five grand for this one and I'll buy it.
I got this.
I was like, dude, I think everyone would have been down to just everyone chips in.
But Mike was like, no, I want this to be money Mike's skate park.
It's interesting.
like obviously I always show up late but like I rarely I rarely take personal days and that was
you know in a sense of personal day like to go get it but like like started out by picking up a skate
park and he ended it by slinging hot dogs on the street what a day it might have been the best day ever
that was probably like legitimately the most I sweated all summer and then afterwards
as you're grabbing those hot dogs dude I couldn't believe how people didn't mind that you were
literally grabbing them off the machine with your bare hand after you took the money and then
Put the dog in the bun, hand it to them.
Yeah, I got a couple looks, but other than that,
and one person, no gloves,
and I'm like, I'll watch my hands, and they're like, okay.
Two of those girls, they did see you do that,
and then they just immediately threw them in the trash.
That was another, like, money shot, I guess, of the video.
Like, so many people were like, bro, when those chicks threw them away.
Yeah, I mean, they weren't, they weren't going to eat that shit.
When the lady gave me $20, too, that hyped a bunch of people up, too,
and myself, obviously.
Like, she was so nice.
Give me $20 and say, I don't eat meat.
but I love what you're doing.
$20 for you, sir.
Well, you could have told her a white lie and just said,
oh, no, these are vegan hot dogs.
She's not trying to kill her.
Jeez.
You can catch a charge for that, I can't.
Why, you're the ketchup guy, Ken.
It's just straight lying and false advertising.
It's just a small lie.
It's the white fib.
That's what when I wasn't sell them,
Dalton's like,
dude, you got to shove them down their throat, man.
You got to sell these things.
And I was like,
we're looking for consent here.
We're looking for consensus.
Slinging these hot dogs.
Well, I want to bring that out, like, at hey days or something.
I think that'd be a lot of fun.
Yeah, I could see slinging hot dogs at hey days.
Well, we're, you know, doing the meat and greet.
You're off to the side.
Mark up the price a little bit, $2.25.
$1.25.
Still undercut Costco.
What are Costco is $150?
That's a mic question.
By the end, you're just going to be giving out a dog and a dollar.
Not even going to be making money.
They just get both.
He's just trying to make people's days at that point.
Right.
Trying to get everyone fed.
So I'm not trying to out you.
here but uh i got a story about cj that like i have been meaning to talk about for a very long time
because i have not laughed this hard in a long time and i don't know all the details so i need
your side and yeah we're we're rolling this right now absolutely i was in zorbas and uh there's just
some people to the right of me that you guys hang out with i don't know them that well but i was
just like with friends friends whatever so it sounds like you guys are at parallel and cj was just
trying to like maybe squeak out a little fart or something and he just completely
I know exactly what you're talking about.
Ripped ass.
Super loud.
CJ has been embarrassed about this sense.
It was like a bomb went off.
Dude,
the guy made it clear to everybody.
Like, he had the whole bar stop.
He was standing up,
telling the story.
And he just had everybody roll it.
He's like,
I heard it.
It was so loud.
Hold on.
Hold on.
So you're at Parallel,
which is a very nice restaurant.
Yeah.
Nice is restaurant in the area.
Yeah.
Let me just tell my side of the story, okay?
Well, there's not much to say.
It sounded like you didn't give a shit.
You just.
No, I did.
I did.
I did care and I knew it was wrong.
And that's why I was embarrassed about it.
Did you know it was going to be loud or did you know I was going to smell?
No, dude, it didn't smell.
It didn't smell.
Thank God.
He said it fucking reeked.
How do you know?
Did he really?
Yeah, he's like, bro, I about puked in my own plate.
Shut up.
Did he actually say that?
Yeah, that's what I was crying laughing.
It was Nick's birthday that day too.
Oh, what the hell?
Yeah, I know a little birthday present for him.
No, so like I'm sitting there, you know, it's like Sunday.
I'm eating.

Instead it sounded like a soundboard fart
Like you pushed a
Yeah
You like ricocheted
Did you amplify the sound
Pick up a little bit
Yeah
Like you got up
Yeah
No it just
It just like
It was bad
And I was like oh fuck
You didn't know
It was gonna be a loud
I just thought I was just like

It just like happened dude
Like I normally wouldn't do that
He said you wouldn't look at him
He's like hey CJ

wow and i'm like sitting there Alex is like talking telling this story

whatever and then like pretty soon i start like hearing the table like my back's facing
the table behind's like was that you was that you like they start blaming each other
you know like one of those situations and I'm like oh fuck oh fuck and then and then
I think it was him and dude I start like sweating like I do embarrassing stuff I mean
pretty much for a living but I knew that was wrong like I was embarrassed like like that's
something I don't stand by like I wouldn't even burp at a restaurant but it just slipped and I'm like
oh fuck and then like I start sweating dude like my back is sweating I'm like
jeez, like, I'm probably going to soak through this shirt.
I'm like, hurry the fuck up, Alex.

And she's like, what?
Trying to enjoy it.
I'm like, eat your thing.

I'm trying to get the hell out of here.
Trying to get the hell out of here, dude.

It's good to have a routine.
And it's good for your eyes too.
Because with regular comprehensive eye exams at Specsavers,

And they're like, I think it was him.
And they like just won't fucking drop it.
But they're all laughing.
They're all like laughing really hard.
And then, uh, holy shit, the fart hurt.
around this no it was literally just one table because it was like it was pretty empty in there
so it was quiet i think that's kind of why but with the piano player going no nothing is a piano
nothing it's the nice soft music he's just ripping it really was like what the hell is wrong with
this kid no exactly and like i'm not dude i was like bent out of shape about it until like wednesday
i did on sunday like i thought about it that much like i'd just be like kind of enjoying my life
And I just think about like, oh, fuck, why did I do that?
You know, like one of those situations.
Like, I wake up like, oh, it's going to be a good day.
I'm like, what was that thing that I was all bent out of shape about?
Oh, it's right.
I fucking farted at.
You know, so anyways, like, you know, finally moving past it,
but apparently, I don't know if I'm going to be able to.
It was the story to be told.
You were at Zorba's and they were still talking about it.
I just want to say, though, they were like dying laughing.
Yeah.
Dying laughing.
So, like, anyways, I couldn't fucking look at it.
at him when I left because I was afraid they were going to like call me out.
I just didn't know what to do.
So I just literally like as soon as I signed that motherfucker, I just stood up and just like
walked and Alex just like looks at him.
She's like, happy birthday.
In my head, dude, in my head, I'm just like, yeah, happy birthday.
CJ walks out of you.
Dude, I was so fucking flustered.
And then like I had a whole like, I like, I like,
two more tables that wanted to like talk to me on my way up but I could like they had to
be like what the fuck was wrong with that guy because I was so flustered like trying to leave
like I couldn't get out of there quick enough and then uh yeah I mean that was pretty much
the story like I knew I wasn't going to escape this like I knew I was going to have to come
to terms with it and face the problem head on here soon but I didn't realize it was going to
be told to the whole bar well I tell you what I rolled in and yeah everybody was talking
Was you standing up on the bar?
No, literally.
Like, they give him a mic?
Everybody just kind of gathered in a room.
He's like, I got a great story about C.J.
How many fucking people were there?
It had been 20, 25 people.
Like, it was a good Zorba's night, you know, all of our friends.
But he made it sound like it was funny until they were ready to throw up in their plates.
They're like, I could fucking taste it.
I'm like, dude.
There's no way.
There's no way.
It didn't smell.
I don't think it did.
Well, yeah, but you were probably upwind.
Dude, it had a recoil.
You freaking barked it off the chair.
Maybe.
There's no way.
I don't think it.
it's smell, dude. I just honestly, I don't think of
smell. Because then I would have really felt
bad, but I just knew it was loud. It was like a
bomb, dude. It was just like a fucking bomb.
When you wouldn't make eye contact with him, you
knew, no, you knew you messed up
when you wouldn't look at it. Well, yeah, dude, like,
I'm not, I'm not proud of it. I'm not proud
of it. I want some things. I'm not proud of it
and this is one of them. Get a new one.
Really? Yeah. Shut the fuck up,
gang. That didn't happen. Nancy
said it. Was there any kids at the table? No.
Oh, okay. Well, that's good at least. No, it's all adults.
So tell me how he told the story
Like I want to hear this
Like think about a very standing energy
Like almost like you're going to a comedy club
Like this guy had the whole floor
And he was going to go on tour
Talk about my fucking part
He had the whole bar rolling
Honestly he deserves it
I'll each of monetized
Like this guy starts selling
T-shirts
I kind of ruined his birthday
I kind of ruined his birthday
I went to parallel
And all I got was somebody
Parting on my plate
I'm going to go back there
So tell the story
I want to hear this
Like you just keep going
Like yeah
You stood up there
And told it
How did he tell it
He basically
I think all he said
Is he was just sitting down
Trying to have a nice family dinner
And some dude behind him
Just was ripping ass
I was in front of him
Or whatever
It was one time
I wasn't ripping ass
It was just ripped ass
See that's what I say
It might have been
Exaggerated a little bit
On his end
But like he had to obviously
Tell the story in the bar
To keep everybody going
But he said it was like
You wouldn't make eye contact
because you knew what she did and you didn't own it and it was loud and obnoxious and you just said you
didn't give a fuck it can't be obnoxious if if you just do it once okay he made it sound like
purposeful like you were just like screw those guys you know i definitely didn't do it on purpose
really holy shit i can't get the story straight dude maybe i need to sound like a like a fucking
fruit basket or something i don't know and this is this week on cornrod news is it's
J. Lotzer actually shits his pants.
I couldn't breathe.
You know, I'm just glad that I knew something was going to come of this.
And, you know, as more time went on, I was like,
Pink-Eye.
Doesn't matter.
It's going to forget about it.
Nope, I knew.
I knew it was going to come back around.
Just a content machine.
The next time I'm going to go into Zorp us.
I'm going to see, like, 12 people pink eye and be like, you guys were in parallel yesterday.
CJ was there.
Dude, you can't give someone pink eye from farting six feet away from him.
It's just not possible.
All right.
All right.
Well, I'm glad we got that.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Thanks, Jake.
Jake, I was thinking about this the other day.
Remember when you quit working for Dave and you started your own business doing the exact same thing as Dave?
So, so Jake's family or Jake's dad started this company.
It's called Sherbrook Turf.
Turfing.
And what it is, it's like if you're driving down the highway and they're building, you know, a new highway and all of it is getting seated on the sides, like that's like the jobs at Sherbrook Turf.
does like they seed like big construction zones like highways and whatnot so anyway jake worked
for dave for your whole life yeah your whole life right i've never applied for another job anywhere
i worked for dave for a little bit and jake gets in a fight with dave yep quits and then the next
day starts his own sherbrook turf what you called it what sherbrook hydro lawn yeah we got in a fight
that night i ordered like two pallets of product and uh like a hydroceiter that goes in the
box of a truck and my dad just like oh he's just being a punk and honestly to this day
the seed supplier called my dad and he's like so what's uh what's going on with your kid he just
ordered a couple of pallets of stuff and my dad just hung up and he's like nice like he was actually
pumped for me he's like he went through with it jake quits on a friday right yep and monday
and so we had our old shop like at this point we're filming videos full time we know that jake just
had quit working for dave and uh we're like okay well jake's starting his new business
business apparently on Monday and so we're at the shop and Jake shows up to the shop right he
pulls up in his truck and we're like oh wow he didn't go back to work for Dave he hops out
and he's wearing like a polo like a button up yeah he's wearing like a button up and the binder
his binder it's like basically just a folder like binder leather with a zipper like it's a pretty
nice little like so so when you uh you can go on like a website called legal zoom and start an LLC
and they will charge you like $800 to open up this LLC
and with that though they will send you this binder
that says your company name on it and then you can have like
you'll have like all of your articles and all of your yeah
all of your business documents in this binder
and this is exactly what you do when you get it.
Garbage.
There is no reason you need to even hold on to that binder
right hand because they send you.
they send you like all the documents like you do not need them right so jake shows up to the shop
hops out wearing a button up and he overnighted his LLC binder yeah and he walked around
with his binder talking about in a button up for a week yeah and every time we saw him you still
carrying that fucking binder that said sherbrook hydro lawn LLC yeah i'm gonna get some jobs you're
like on the phone you would like you would drop your phone
because you were on a phone line with him through his business.
You got rid of it.
We got you a phone through our business.
Oh, that's right.
You might still be on it.
I am because I get your guys emails.
Like all the time, it's like your Verizon bills do it.
I'm like, I'm not even on that anymore.
Yeah, you were like the head of it.
We went in and Jake started it.
You got some real problems.
Every time that I try and go get a phone or add somebody onto it, they're like, all right, we need your admin, Jake Sherbrook.
And I'm like, holy shit, that's right.
is our Verizon admin.
I'm not even on the business plan because I can't get on.
I've tried so many times.
It's like,
you need to get Jake here.
And I'm like,
I just forget it.
Ryan,
it's done with it.
He's like,
I'm like my own.
Ryan did make it on and he had a hell of a time and had to obviously
contact it.
Do you still have the,
the Sherbrook Hydrolon.
Uh,
yeah,
I do.
I do.
Mike made me my like first green vest or whatever.
He got right.
That's a classic.
It was I did one job.
It was a roadhouse.
Seated the front line for $1,000.
And then I was like,
sweet,
got a thousand.
bucks to spend at the bar tonight there.
So how long did that business last?
About the roadhouse job and that was it.
And then what?
I either went back to Dave or I went full time with you guys.
It was the same year.
I think you went back to Dave because Dave was like, all right, Jake, I'll buy you out.
It's like, that was easy.
And then you were like, sweet.
All I got is this binder.
He handed it over.
My favorite thing of the whole story, though, is when you explained it to me, you know,
you showed up and it was and you're like, yeah.
Yeah, like I just left my dad's and we had this big argument and on my way.
I told him what I was doing and he said, good luck with that or wherever you're going.
And you replied, I'll send you a postcard.
And then you slam the door.
And then the next best part of the story is that, you know, you're marching around with this binder and you're on the phone, you know,
working these deals and all this for a week, roughly.
and uh and you're wearing this this button up shirt with a collar and you end up forgetting
your binder at the shop you know just sitting there i'm like so like i think we end up opening up
this binder like what the fucks he got here and it's like literally two sheets of paper from legal
zoom one saying like it's just like a printed little like articles of incorporation yeah exactly
just two things and then that was and then like a notepad that's just blank
Just blank.
Doing some real business in there, boys.
And that was that.
That was that.
And he sold the business.
You look the part.
I definitely looked the park.
Dude,
I'll just never forget when he hopped out of his truck that first.
He said he's wearing a buttoned up with a binder.
Just completely changed.
I'm like, yeah, new man, business owner now.
You were talking with Ken's mom about doing their yard, I remember.
Yeah, I was just talking.
I was like, so what else you got lined up for jobs?
Well, I was talking with.
Carolyn and might be doing their house.
Did you ever get that figured out?
Still blacked.
Still needs to get done.
It could have been a good business.
I'm just,
I'm glad you took the other route.
Yeah.
I'll send you a postcard.
I'll send you a postcard.
Just a douche.
This weekend, I know we talk about this every year.
We're at the local country music festival.
And Jake put out the most typical snap for someone who's not going.
Your snap on the back of a boat.
No one's in it.
Just your feet.
And it's just like, I get to do this while everyone's sitting in a field,
listening to country music.
And I'm like, bro, that's what someone who's sitting alone on the boat says.
Oh, dude, I just, the amount of people.
Dude, the amount of times that Jake has asked all of us individually,
like, you still going to We Fest this weekend?
Yep.
Nice.
I'm going on the boat.
Yeah. I'm like, boom.
I'm like, oh, Jake, I didn't know you got a boat.
Well, I haven't figured out where yet.
But, yeah, I'm trying to go out on the boat.
Oh, dude, you can take my boat out if you want.
Yeah, we'll see.
I got a lot of options.
I just try to convince you guys.
The boat, I don't know.
What's up with that?
You could have got on the boat last weekend or next week.
It's just better.
My boy's acting like we don't like know about boat life.
Yeah, it's like, you guys haven't experienced this.
No, we did make a pretty good joke.
Ben has a Supra and he's got a raptor motor in it.
And Jake has a whipple on his raptor.
And we're like, you borrow his boat for a day and just throw.
your whipple on it.
Don't even make it to the lake, but she's making power now.
Tune it, yeah.
Slap it on, throw it in.
Yeah, Jake, you can use my boat.
Yeah, you just have to put a whipple supercharger on it, though.
It probably bolt right up.
Oh, no, it would.
It's the same motor and everything.
Yeah, it would be.
Probably really easy to get at, too, actually.
Like $750 at the prop.
Might just be ripping across the lake.
Do it, dude.
You could hit the ground so fast.
You hit every rock in that lake.
I like, I don't think you still haven't even been over to my house.
No, I have now once
When we gave grad of the moped
Oh, that's right, that's right
That was a good time
Haven't been out on your boat yet
No, we hopped out on my boat last year
I was pretty new to the lake
And I hit the ground twice
So it's shallow
I was in the boat, I can confirm
It's very shallow there
Yeah, it's just like
You just have to know where to go
Right
And I just like didn't really know
And I thought that I was good
When I wasn't
The boat was like waded down
And we'd be putting around
And all of a sudden
And everyone's like
Ooh
it was hard too it was like every time it got funnier yeah i think it was like two or three yeah i mean
i've been in the boat at least for sure two times when you did it but you know a prop is like i don't know
they're just expensive 600 bucks yeah they're you know manufactured and engineered to be perfect so
and it built out a nice metal but they're a quick ding is a quick 600 bucks yeah i mean once you
hit it once though hitting it again it's like you can't make it any worse
I mean you can keep running it
Pretty soon I just have one little fin
Yeah just just why can't we serve
Yeah it's just barely moving
So anyway Jake yeah I mean
Keys are in it if you want just make sure you
Put the Whipple
Yeah you got it you got a lot of flack for that actually
There was like probably
Not even joking you 50 people that just responded like
F you or something like that just from
For not wanting to go to Wii Fest
Yeah Jake did you see my Wii Fest buy
Yeah that was good I actually like that
I drunkenly thought
it'd be funny to have a billboard here when i saw that i was like damn that's hard that's really
good yeah we'll pop the video up here we uh sent the art off uh and in a matter of two hours they
had that billboard electronic billboard big billboard right at the music festival
dude how thousands of people to see it was so awesome they said ken matthies for mayor 2024 and uh
obviously you've seen it on the screen yeah so you can vote ken's still running for mayor i believe
voting ends? Voting ends when this podcast
goes alive. It'll have ended yesterday.
Okay, so we need to get something out on
the C-Boys Instagram to really push
some votes for you. I was campaigning
all last night. Every person I took a picture
with. Hey, you got an iPhone. Let me
just air drop you a link quick.
Really? Really good.
Did they vote? Were they voting? Oh my gosh,
good. Well, Ken, we are actually going
campaigning after this podcast today.
So we've got a couple things lined up.
That's the thing you wouldn't talk
about. Yeah, it'll be fun. So
Yeah, we just didn't want you to get cold feet, you know,
so we wanted to make sure that you were going to show up
and be bright-eyed and bushy-tailed.
Which you have been anything but cold feet.
I talked to some other running mates last night,
I guess, the owners of the running mate.
How do they feel?
They're super nice.
Yeah, because the other running mates are dogs.
Dogs.
So it's three dogs and then Ken.
Yep.
And they said, as a joke, but they were like,
you should tell Ken to drop out.
And I'm like
Yeah
They're gonna start making smear campaigns
Yeah I was like
Yeah like commercial
I'm like that's my boy
I'm not gonna tell him to drop out
Were they being serious?
Ah we're joking joking
And then like
I think they were being serious
At the end they were like no
But he actually should
Yeah because they all know
They don't stand a chance
So I was Ken's got way more clout
Than these dogs
I was just thinking about this
Two things
Not that likely
But Ken if you do lose
They are to dogs
And you have a giant fall
I know
It's a winner
win for us.
Jake,
your dog's running.
I know.
That's right.
Jake's also like,
yeah,
Ken,
you should drop out.
No,
I was literally
thinking about the whole
smear campaign.
I'm like,
how should I do this?
And then I was thinking about it,
I'm like,
Ken's not even his real name.
He's lying to everybody
right off the start.
So I was thinking,
I had this whole idea.
I'm like,
Ken hates dogs.
It's Ken's not even his real name,
but I was like,
uh,
it's pretty aggressive.
Even if voting was ended already,
if you had like a little one minute bit in your next video,
Dude, it'd be so funny.
Just for the people.
I wanted to do like a walk-around thing with my dog, like how friendly it is.
And then get like angry music when Ken's having his like little rage moments.
Like, this could be your mayor.
Don't let it happen or something like that.
He's not even a dog.
Yeah, you know, you got that dog in him.
Yeah, that is pretty funny.
We're all chatting about this.
And then we're like, oh, yeah, Jake, your dog's running.
That's right.
Yeah.
I was like, oh, I got this in the bag.
And then I saw at the bottom of the list.
I'm like, ah, Ken's right below it.
Shit.
Dude, I'm very excited, Ken.
Nobody stands a chance.
At the country music festival, watching the artist,
and then you look over and you see no can-do,
or yes, can-do running for mayor of Cormrott, Minnesota.
I'm like, dude, we're living in a simulation right now.
Dude, we, like, live in a reality TV show, and I love it.
It's like, I don't know if I could ever, like, go back to just being normal.
Like, that to me is normal.
We see that.
I'm like, yes!
And then turn around and this is happening.
Like, it's just the best thing ever.
I was texting the dude, like, mid-concer, and I was like, hey, what's it cost to run this?
And he sent me the numbers.
I was like, that's it.
Well, to be fair, it's up there for like five seconds at a time.
Yeah.
I think for any other business, well, for us, it makes like we have nothing to gain besides
for obviously you winning as mayor.
And a good laugh.
And a good laugh.
But, yeah, I mean.
It's not even going in a video.
For 700 bucks, though, that did seem like a pretty good deal.
So it was like, Mayor, what's the first change you'd make in Cormor?
Like, you definitely got some power then, right?
Oh, dude.
I have so many ideas.
My whole campaign plan.
It's...
But he's not going to tell us.
It's available somewhere.
Oh, yeah.
The pickleball courts.
He's got a binder.
Ken got his own binder.
Or you could even go the route of like,
Cormoron's great the way it is.
I'm just going to keep it the same and make sure it stays the same.
We just got to keep improving it.
Never stop.
I think we put the skate park on the pickleball court.
Bruh, we didn't ask for this.
Yeah.
I think Cormon is just becoming.
so legendary like the fact that the old mayor used to be a dog and then that dog duke went like
global NBC today and all those like today show and everything yeah he was a legend he was a legend
and now the amount of YouTubers between us and you that live in cormrott and then the amount of
and then the amount of people no to the amount of people that live in corn rot the ratio is amazing yeah
it is it's like seven to 30 literally dude I think some of the people
People are a little salty about Ken running because they want it to be, like, a dog again.
But I'm just going to say it.
It's not going to hit the same.
It's not going to hit the same.
Like, you can't just like, you're not going to get the same reaction to having a dog as a mayor as the first time around.
You know, it's just not as funny.
Like, I guarantee you if a dog does one, it's not going on tour.
It's not going on the today show.
I was wondering, you know how, like, Duke was mayor until he passed?
Is Ken going to be mayor till he passes?
That's what I'm wondering, too, unless they somehow, like, aren't pleased with his performance.
Maybe that could be my first change.
You know, you can't just have a one-time election and be a dictatorship.
It has to be a, that's fair, Ken.
That's pretty honorable.
I got to give it the power to the people.
Or maybe four years.
Yeah, I give yourself a four-year.
Yeah, you need some time to make some changes or just run this place down.
Yeah, if you do a dictatorship style, I feel like that's how you just get murked.
Like, I feel like you're going to have a hit on you.
Exactly.
Yeah, we don't want Ken, we don't want Ken going on like a parade tour or something like that
because his policies are going to piss people off immediately.
He's not going to tell anyone what his policies are until he's,
elected apparently.
I don't even know what a game to say.
Ken's the first.
You're the first owner of a bulletproof Tesla.
He already,
he just needs the windows and he is.
Actually, yeah.
A bulletproof Tesla cyber truck.
Gosh, that's,
I like the ring of that.
Ken knows.
He's thinking, let him cook.
He's about to make a statement.
Hold on.
Don't want to say something.
He's going to say something.
It'll be a fun election.
Yes, it will.
It will.
I can't wait to go.
I don't know what you got up your sleeve, Ken.
I don't know what you have up your sleeve.
No, you don't.
He's like, I'll wait to make more comments until after whatever we're filming today.
But that's the thing.
Like, you know, you've paid for the paid media.
You've done all the speeches, the public speeches,
and now it's time to get your boots on the ground,
start pounding the pavement, and shaking hands, kissing babies,
putting signs and locking in vote.
I was doing that yesterday.
Well, that's what we're going to be doing today, too.
My favorite part is, like, you came up to me and Sydney, and you're like, you were still
in the campaign mode.
You were like, oh, yeah, vote for me.
I'm running for mayor.
Oh, shit.
You're like, Ken, I'm your friend.
You go to the next guy.
This dude is just locked in.
You were locked in.
Gosh, you were locked in.
I mean, it is, you are right for, like, our life, like, the simulation and just, like, how
fucking funny everything is around
us. Ken being the mayor of
Cormoran, like, you can't write
a better story. It's just like, how much
more ridiculous can this story
get? It is bizarre. It seriously is bizarre.
To, like, remove yourself from it and think about it.
When you're saying, yeah, people are kind of getting, like,
upset, like, oh, let it be another dog.
What's funnier? The local
YouTuber, that's Ken? Like, Ken, you are just
endless entertainment. It's Ken. A legend.
Yeah, everyone knows Ken.
legend.
YouTube or a dog,
you know,
that what?
Probably new to the area,
Jake.
All right,
pal.
Yeah.
How long's your dog even been here?
Dude,
that dog lived in the wild.
Her dog was abducted.
No,
it wasn't a...
Yeah,
tell the story of this dog.
Hey,
hold on.
Is this dog being put
as mayor
against his will
because he was brought
here against his will?
Okay,
he's she.
All right,
pal?
And so my dad
took like a job
in Idaho Falls
and like,
Way up in the mountains, there's this huge random, it's a great Pyrenees.
It's like 140 pounds, okay?
And, like, she'd come down and they'd just throw it like chicken and rob bacon and it would eat,
you know, it would just go back up into the hills or whatever.
Probably where the house it was living at.
No, they wouldn't.
There's a thin tree line in a house over there.
It was just walking out there were some nice people that would go.
It was just going home.
And, uh, no.
And so the project was going to be done.
And everyone was like packing up and leaving and this dog was staying around.
And my dad and Julie were like, this dog can't just sit here.
and my dad calls one of his guys and he's like hey i need you get in a truck and bring a big kennel
and we're bringing this dog home so he drives all the out there and i'd show up at like 2 a m and
here's this like huge huge it's like the nicest dog ever but it's yeah it's we didn't
get abducted and it's stolen that's exactly what you did it have a caller on it yeah yeah
it had a caller name and everything no like a phone number you could call number so we took a
It said if lost call here.
It rang a couple of times.
Yeah, so what happened was there was like a house,
I don't know how many miles away,
but they couldn't keep it home and it just would run away.
So like they just,
the owners just let it go astray because it wouldn't stay home anyways.
And it was fine.
Like the thing like would kill deer and whatever.
Like it's a freaking beast.
When you're,
when you told me.
Dude,
go on,
go on what?
Go on Facebook.
Something off here.
Go on Facebook and look it up.
It kills deer.
Do you know how fast a fucking deer?
What is this thing?
Look at this.
I'm going to show you.
They'll like go against bears, dude.
No, it's not.
Watch.
It is not going against bears.
I need to see some.
Okay.
Hold on.
There's videos all over the internet of these things against bears.
What is it called a great pyuanese?
Yeah.
They'll just stand up against bears.
Like, it's in their nature.
So, like, they're usually to protect, like, chicken and sheep and stuff like that.
I just don't know if I can believe a word out of it.
this guy's mouth.
This dog is killing deer.
It's surviving off of deer.
It's not going to kill a bear, but.
Gonna fight it.
Look it.
They just.
It's barking out of it.
I mean, the bear's backing down.
Yeah.
It's kind of cool.
They just don't run away.
Gets right up to it.
It's pretty badass.
I'm not going to lie.
No, I believe, I was hanging out with Jake and, uh, what's the dog's name?
Calisi.
And I believe that it was wild when you were,
like, yeah, I don't know how it does with, like, other dogs and, and, but yeah, she gets pretty
rowdy when she sees, like, deer and then she saw some deer and pretty much almost ripped
you to the ground.
Yeah, like an assassin.
No, you don't understand.
I was, like, walking her and she just drug me.
Like, you cannot, like, she'll pull you around.
Like, you are not pulling her around.
Yeah, and she, like, you know, wasn't, I guess, trained in that aspect.
Like, you're not just like, kill her, no, whatever.
And, dude, she was just, like, pulling you literally across the lawn.
Yeah, she's like, we're going to get that.
And I was like, no, we're not.
And I just didn't have a choice.
Should have just unhooked it.
Yeah.
No.
Let it murk the deer.
I want to see that.
Yeah, I want to see it, too.
It would be cool.
How fucking fast is this dog?
How fucking fast is this dog?
Dude, I'm just trying to...
They're fast.
Like, when they want to go, they go.
They're huge.
Think about like, they're just a giant muscle.
The way I look at it, yes, deer are faster than dogs, but deer are also stupider than dogs.
They definitely are.
They are so stupid.
So stupid.
So stupid.
Possibly the dumbest animal.
You know what's crazy is that white-tailed deer are like really stupid
And then you get into the, you know, around Idaho and Montana and whatnot
The mule deer are twice as stupid as white tails
Which is, I don't know, it's concerning
I mean, the fucking deer around here
They will run into the side of your car
Yeah, like run into the side of your car
But then their buddies across the road already
So they're like, ah shit, I got to go
And they'll run into the side of your car
That's happened to me twice
It happened to Ken in town once
In the city.
Do you guys remember when I didn't have a vehicle?
So I was driving my mom's outback and then I blew it up.
Which one?
Yes.
I do.
I remember in Fargo.
So I blew up that out back so I didn't have a car.
And so I'll...
Neither did your mom.
Yeah.
So I drove her black car.
Jake was such a little dick, dude.
You'd blow his car and then steal his moms and then blow that out.
So I was driving her black out back when she was like, okay, don't crash in.
or don't blow it up.
Like, I need a vehicle.
Sick, I'll just put competition subs in it instead.
Yeah, that's what I did.
That's what I did.
That's right.
Dude, put competition subs in your mom's super outback.
That she loaned you.
You were driving your mom's car for two weeks.
Starts flexing the windshield.
You concrete's the backseat.
So anyways, I'm driving this car home one night and I get rear-ended by a deer.
Like, I'm talking, I'm like, what I just?
just hit she's like that day she's like okay just don't crash it like i just need a car so i'm at
the stop sign at the road house and i just hear bam and i'm like what is this i get out
huge dent in the back bumper and i'm like how am i going to explain this so she i'm going to come
up with the most actual story that happened i was sitting on a stoplight and got re-ended by a deer
and she's not going to believe it for a second because of everything i've done in the past the only thing
i got away with in the crack it was deer hair all the way around and i got re-rended by a deer so i got
Like, lucky.
I just have bad luck with vehicles, I guess.
Did he also put that car in the ditch, like, pretty far?
On purpose a lot.
Yeah.
That thing was a beast.
I'm not going to live.
Dude, it was awesome.
I remember that video's still on YouTube.
I don't know what the name of it is, but you were hooning that fucking super
in your school parking lot in my former high school parking lot in town, yeah, Davies High School.
Was that the same video that he blew up the white one and then that is the car.
He blew it up and then we towed it back to the college house.
And then, uh, boom, didn't we make a song about that?
Yes. Oh, my God.
Can we play it? Can we play it?
Oh, we got rid of our fire TV or something like that.
Okay. We're going to go find it right now.
Oh, Jake blew up his, Jake blew up his Subaru drifted.
Boom. Yeah, yeah. It's in the title.
Baby, it's banging.
All right, guys, guys, stop, stop.
My car just blew up.
We got to get back to the video.
What the hell was that, dude?
That's classic.
That's on the internet, dude.
No, that's amazing.
What made us go, yo, we should write like a, like a, like a, what is it called?
I'm trying to think, like a little riff.
Man calls it a hit.
No, a chorus group, like a men's group.
A barbershop quartet.
Yeah, that's what it was.
Dude, that video is about to go up 200,000 views.
We posted that in 2017, November 10th.
Wow.
Simpleer times.
Yep.
Simpler times, man.
That was good times.
Dude, that Subaru was a tank.
I always remember when we were out on the ice with it.
And you're like, you really drove it like you stole it.
You drove it like you stole the car from your car.
And I remember we had buddy Blake in the back.
And you said, I don't know, he was always so terrified of the statement, Burnhamdale.
Like it was weird
Like that's it's fun to say
But you know
He knew that when someone said that shit was about to get real
And you were like
Burn him Dale
And he was like no
No no
No
No absolutely not
No
And I'm like dude we're not gonna die
He said we could roll
We could go through the ice
He said Burnhamdale
Was that the night that that guy in that Jeep
Yeah
Started chasing us
And he chased us all the way back to Dave's compound
And then we were like
Bobbing and we've been
at dave's compound?
Yes, dude.
I like hid behind the cornwood store and watch him drive by.
And Ryan, what the hell was that about?
I don't know.
Like Ryan on drunk ice fisherman.
Bald tires on in his T.C.
Over a hundred down the road your shop is on right now.
And he's still on his tail.
2002 gold Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Those were the times where we were like, dude, we're in, this is the craziest night
of our life.
Well, that was just straight for the love of it.
Yeah.
I wouldn't do that now.
Like that was like the reckless fun
No I think there's a ton of stuff that I look back at
That we did back then
And like what the hell were we doing
So stupid
So fun though
I was asked about this yesterday if we would ever do another slip and slide
You know I know it's funny the amount of people that are like
Are you guys doing the slip inside this year
And then they'll hit me with I missed the one last year
I'm like no you didn't because we haven't done it in like 10 years
No I got that too
And they're like you still yeah same thing
You're doing the slip inside and I was just like
Are you really really?
behind or...
Did I miss the last one too?
No, that would be fun to do again?
I kind of got cabosh when that
chick stood on my dad's plane.
I remember that.
And then she posted it on Instagram.
Twitter, I thought.
Twitter.
No, it was Twitter.
And then your dad stood on Dave's plane.
Yeah, she like stood on the hood of it.
How did she even get up there?
Dude, so climbed up.
So there's like a wheel you can stand on
so then you can get on the top
where you can check the oil.
You can also just lift yourself up there.
Well, crazy story, right?
So like there's an airplane sitting in the yard, right?
So your first obvious thing is like, yeah, I'm going to stand on an airplane that's not mine and take a picture and just spider the old fiberglass hood.
And then when we like sent pictures to her parents, we're like, hey, just letting you know like your daughter like stood on this plane and Dave wasn't going to like make them pay for it or anything.
But then they're like, how do you know it was her?
We sent him a picture of her standing on it.
And they're like, how do you know she fiberglassed?
It could have been someone else standing on it.
And we're like, who just stands on an airplane?
Yeah, like, I've never seen anyone in my life just like, yeah, I'm going to go stand on that.
I would have done.
Which I didn't even understand it.
I didn't understand at the time either.
I'm like, okay, so, like, what happened?
And you're like, you got to get the whole thing, like, re-inspected, you know?
You can't just, like, can't patch it up.
It's an airplane.
Fly an airplane.
That's not safe or not ready.
I remember there was the big Twitter fight, though.
Your dad was just, like, chirping her on Twitter.
Then she was turping back.
And it was like a war, dude.
Keyboard worrying had its finest voice.
I love that stuff, dude.
I don't remember that part.
I do.
I do.
I do.
got out of hand and Dave just deleted
everything. Just said, fuck it. That's when
it comes down to just owning up.
Yeah, just say sorry, I did it. I'm a kid.
Whatever. And he would have been like, listen,
I got it, whatever. But I know. Like, if you
fart at the bar, just own up. Yeah, dude.
I did. No, you didn't turn around and say sorry.
You don't know to everyone else. Yeah, the
whole reason the story is funny is because you never
did, which honestly, I don't know if I would have either.
But it was a lot. Okay.
It was just a tough night. I hate
talking about it because I literally ask you guys so
much but i'm guessing everyone else curious too when's the drift track going to be done man we've
we've actually pulled the trigger on like having the guy come out and just doing it and just doing it
and he's said that he was going to be there on monday the last three mondays dude yeah what the
fuck's this guy doing like i keep hearing like yeah it's starting this week i'm like nice and then i go
over to the farm i'm like where where is this guy is he show up at three o'clock in the afternoon or
what i feel like dumb and also here like i just feel dumb that like like no one knows yeah i
I almost wonder if it's a situation where it's like, he's taking care of it.
No, he's taking care of it.
And then really no one's taken care of it and it's at a complete standstill.
Like, who is taking care of this?
I'll take care of it.
Just give me a credit card.
I'll take care of it.
So, yeah, I think it's $200,000.
$250,000.
Like, I don't, I guess we could probably put that on a credit card.
Be some good points.
But we do it for the points.
We would get a lot of points.
That would be good.
He's getting hard.
I'm thinking about that.
$2,500 bucks and points.
Ken's just rolling through his cards like this one's got one percent it's a lot of dough to slide some cars around but it'll be 100 percent worth it no we're ready for it and that's I guess I keep telling people that yeah what's the drift truck looking like and I hate saying it's in the works it's like the same gig with my Subaru how's your Subaru yeah it's it's in the works it's tough because you know every single thing that we do we try and do internally because we bang it out right right all of our projects are like well
well, we could send it off and then the wrenches would have more time to do whatever,
or we could have them do it and it would take like a quarter of the time, right?
Because we're efficient.
Right.
Bang this shit out, because we have to.
That's the issue with the drift track.
We ain't out there laying asphalt.
No, you don't got a paver.
We don't have a paver.
Exactly.
And so we're kind of just at like the mercy of whenever he comes and does it.
But, yeah, I don't know.
It's supposed to be the other way around.
You know, like we were like sick.
You know what?
We're just going to have them from here on out, take over and finish it.
Yeah, I thought that was the quickest option.
Same.
Yeah, I don't know, but it's, we were just actually talking about this earlier of like,
is it worth doing concrete and having it last a little bit longer if we're going to do it?
But then it's like, it'd probably be like 600 grand worth of concrete.
Not worth it, dude.
It's a lot of like 600 grand, you can do a lot with six years.
You know how many videos of sliding shit around we'd have to do to make that make sense?
It just doesn't.
It just doesn't.
The thing that I'm pumped about is it's not only a drift track.
I'm excited for shifter cards.
on it and all the cool stuff.
It really is.
But what worries me about the difference
between asphalt and concrete
and why I'm on the asphalt side
is because if it were concrete,
I would say we'd actually have to like
get the blueprints of a legitimate drift track.
You know, like we went out there and I love it
and it's perfect and you did a great job like laying it out.
But since it's asphalt,
we're just not out so much if like the turn one isn't perfect.
Right.
Yeah, you could always just add on to it.
You could do that concrete too.
But yeah, I don't know.
I feel like, you know, we're balling on a budget over here.
Yeah.
And a $250,000 to slide around cars is ridiculous.
More than sliding on cars.
You're going to be running through tires, fucking blowing up motors,
crashing cars into trees.
Like, but it's sweet.
It's going to be a lot of fun.
It's like Mike buying the skate park.
We're just building, like, the coolest compound ever.
And I feel like that's just part of it.
It's an expensive project that is going to stay expensive.
Drifting is so expensive of a hobby.
You're telling me, dude.
Like, I don't know if, is there much more expensive?
Obviously, there's racing, like, cars and shit, but, like,
yeah, I think, like, drug racing's, like, the most expensive just because you spent so much money on the motor.
But, like, drift racing's got to be.
Dude, you're going to the track spending $1,000 minimum right away, just in tires.
Yeah.
And now that's not entry fees and, like, my motor's already hurting and smoking it.
You got to fix anything you break every week.
Yeah.
So I really appreciate you guys just forking over the dough, building me a private track that I can practice on any time I want.
You're going to get mufflers.
Put mufflers back on.
No, I got really, I want to quiet it.
They're going to be quiet.
It has to be, because otherwise the neighbors are going to fucking, he got them.
I got them.
And if it's not quiet enough, I will make it quieter.
All right.
Then hard-hitting question about the track, since I've gotten this so much, like, what does it look like for?
It's not a track.
It's a curvy driveway.
Oh, yeah.
Carry on.
Okay, well, that might even change my question a little bit.
Drift driveway.
So many people are like, all right, you're going to build this drift track.
Like, is it going to be private forever?
yes probably yeah bro you think that we're asphalt and also you think that we're gonna like start hosting like
events on saturdays i could see you actually being into that yeah that's why i had to ask i'm like so defeated
over here no i'm not trying to like host an event every weekend because like i mean screw that like
honestly if i was that into it i would have already done it on the dirt bike track i'm talking like
one a year or something like like we have what we have and and i just want like i'm not saying like
yeah it's going to be this free for all yeah come pay two or
250 and then you're good you can just drift all weekend no i'm just like talking like one event a year
where we like i don't know right no i see what you're saying and i shouldn't say never we probably
will honestly we probably will i think it'd be really cool i think it's not like as like an open
track it'd still be private we could call up 10 of our closest drift buddies i know that we'd probably
talk to jake for that but like we could do some fun shit man i i'd like jake's buddy
buchanan he's an fd like as of this year it's just he's just he's just he's just
insane and it'd be fun to have them formula drift dude i was driving his 350 z that he's got
you know fully drift converted and i was coming from the hoonicorn to the 350s oh you drove the missile
yeah nice yeah so it's like kind of like it's like the easiest drift car to kind of learn that's just
like the best entry level perfect setup right dude it felt like i was hopping in a a refined
bugatti right it just drives itself going from the hoonicorn like just he just worked
You haven't drove it, have you?
Like, you didn't drift it.
Well, I guess you did way back.
Yeah.
But before we got everything, like, more dialed it.
But, like, dude, I was working for it the entire time.
Like, you're, like, grabbing as much e-break as you can to lock them up.
And the e-break kind of sucks.
And, like, you're giving as much power as you can because the thing doesn't have much power.
And he's spinning these huge-ass tires.
And then hop in, like, an actual drift car.
I was like, dude, this is insane.
It's a lot of fun.
Yeah, every time I drive that stock Z, I'm like, a shit about a stock Z.
Dude, every time I might hang out with those.
guys, they're like, Mike, I sell this car yet because he should.
Dude, everyone's talking shit on that thing.
And maybe it is time to get rid of it.
What's up with that?
Why is everyone talking to shit?
They actually, well, then I actually, so again, Cody, he's in FD.
So he's like at a drift event pretty much every weekend or almost every weekend.
Yeah, he did 11 weekends in a row.
And then he's just like, bro, why haven't you brought?
And so the plan is to take the turbo off.
Everyone's like, don't take the turbo off.
That's lame.
That's Cheeto.
But I'm like, Evan said that?
Yeah.
I just want to like make it work.
And then anyway, he's like, why haven't you?
dropped your car off yet and i was like oh shit i thought you were busy man so i am just
going to drop it off and say do the things man i think you just start fresh yeah they were more so
talking apart like if you were to how much you like let's say you paid 30 grand or you're all in
that car for 30 he's like if you would have given me 30 grand i could have built him the nastiest car
of all time no i absolutely like messed up i made a mistake i bought a suron from china and it never
came yo mike actually kind of been through it dude my mike yeah that's why i don't have a
Supercar.
It's part of being in the game, though.
It's part of being in the game of spending money.
Yep.
Sometimes it's going to work out.
Sometimes it's not.
More times the other way for you.
We live and we learn.
Actually, that is still the best advice I could give.
Like, if you want to just buy a stock Z.
And if you got extra money, buy a stock C6.
You know what though, Mike?
Is it the new Zs.
I'd do that.
Scared money don't make money.
No.
That's right.
And buy money don't make money either.
No matter how I spend it.
You make money, though, Mike.
I make money, but I'm saying the way I spend it doesn't make.
No.
I don't think it goes out
Dude, your drift car is a gift that keeps on giving
Yeah
Think about how much funny content we have
When you, you know, we go to drive cars
And then you turn your key, it's like smoking
Like that's the best
Like think how much of a hard time
We gave Ryan for his Hummer
And it actually like Ryan's Hummer
Made more content than I swear any vehicle on the channel
I wouldn't say any vehicle
But it made a lot of content
It's up there like what I mean
What made more I guess
I mean tiny trucks
We've made a lot of stuff
But the best part about Ryan's Hummer
was he was like
I was buying a Raptor
Around the same time
That he was like
I'm gonna buy this Hummer
And he was kind of like
You're gonna buy this Raptor
It's gonna depreciate like 20 grand
Or 10 grand whatever
You're gonna lose all this money
I'm just gonna buy this over here
I buy the Raptor
He buys the Hummer
Hummer just fucking sucks
And he lost a bunch of money on it
And end up buying like a TRX
Right after that
Ryan, I can't believe he said that because he's the guy that bought a TRX,
sold it, lost money, bought the Z-O-1, sold it, bought a TRX again.
And now he's out like 50K.
He could have just had that wrap.
Sold the TRX again.
I think he was more so trying to just be a good friend and look out for me.
Like, listen, dude, I've bought a new truck every, every, you know, fall to prepare for winter
and I sell it in the spring.
And I lose like 20 grand.
I'm done doing that.
I'm buying an older vehicle that's already depreciated.
I'm going to drive it and then just get around.
And then it just couldn't get them around.
just couldn't get them around.
Yeah, but it was the gift that kept on giving.
It is.
I love it.
I absolutely love it.
When you go out on a whim and buy something and when Ryan does the same and then it turns
out to just be like a character in itself, man.
And I think that's something that we do really good at is like, you know, capitalizing
on moments like that where we can like lean in on it, kind of at your expense or at Ryan's
expense, but it's just so fucking funny.
Every time.
It is.
And it's like it's worth it.
Straight up.
I've never felt like, besides.
is quite literally getting scammed on the e-bike.
I've never felt like my purchase has just been not worth it.
No,
ever.
And that's kind of just taking like lemons and making it into lemonade.
You know,
you are kind of getting screwed over by buying a piece of shit that or getting scammed.
But luckily we have this platform that you can kind of capitalize
and then make some of your money bad.
It works out really good for us because we didn't spend any money.
It's free content.
It really is the best though because you're actually doing it too.
Like it's not like you did it for a video.
Like when you, like with Ryan, like, he didn't think it was going to make any, any content.
Or like, just do it.
Like, you know, you just kind of buy these things for yourself.
And then it just like, when they naturally become content, those are the best segments.
Like, it wasn't like this plan.
Like, I look at the board and, and, uh, we, we go, we're going to water skip the R1.
It's like, okay, we had this planned and we got the thing ready and went and did it.
It was just like, you were just doing it.
We're like, oh, grab the camera real quick.
quick and then just go from there.
Don't stop spending that money.
Keep recklessly blowing money.
I love it.
All right.
Well, I think that was a great podcast, boys.
Yeah, that was perfect.
Thanks for coming on, Jake.
Appreciate you as always.
Thank you for having me, boys.
Go buy some bombs.
Go buy some bombs.
And if you need your lawn seated, Jake's going to bring back his binder and button
up and, you know, he might get you a quote.
That's it.
Get you a quote.
Yeah, you're handing out quotes.
I just get him a quote.
All right.
We'll see you guys next week.
Peace.
Thanks, boys.
