81 years old, and we brought him to Vegas.
And boy, if we have a good time.
Well, you can't put a brick on the gas.
It's not going to go anywhere.
Have you on a diet?
No.
It's a good thing that you know how to fall and crash.
Yeah, that could have been Ryan.
The world's really hard when you're dumb.
Especially when you're friends with you guys.
But that's what we were committed.
We were either going to double this money or lose the money.
Have you on a diet?
No.
I've been hearing around town.
There's like a murmuring.
I ate chicken one.
day.
I saw you know the carrots is what threw me off.
Carrots are good.
I eat carrots all the time.
Bro, yeah, it's still the AM.
Evan's just finishing off a full pack of carrots.
That's the thing.
I ate like a handful of carrots.
It wasn't even a whole bag.
I don't know.
Multiple people have seen the way you've been eating today.
And without even talking about it to each other,
I'll have just concluded that you're on a diet.
Alex just came up to me.
My girlfriend's helping clean in the shop.
She goes, is Evan on a diet?
I go, I don't know.
I saw him eating carrots and chicken today.
Oh, it must be.
Everyone's concerned about you,
F, it was after this photo.
It started going around.
Dude, I love somebody.
Is that Photoshop?
And we go, no.
Ben and I just found it at like 3 a.m.
We're editing photos.
And we burst out laughing.
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.
But do you feel better?
He's had half a bag,
Jarrett, and a chicken breast.
I mean, it's a good start.
I feel like a whole new man.
Ryan, that's like saying,
can you fill up a lake with one water bottle at a time like the equivalent of like a couple
carrots in evans body yep did you just decide to take care of yourself after you annihilated the
outside of your body on a hard object yeah that that did suck and i was pretty sore so putting some
good stuff in to like how my body recovers probably like a good idea hoping for it yeah a couple
carrots and a chicken that'll should give me on the right path yeah how you doing after that
I think super good.
Honestly, it's been, what, like five days, and I'm sore a little bit.
Yeah.
But each day got better, like the day after, extremely sore.
I saw you in the morning, I go, have how you feeling?
He goes, like, I got hit by a truck.
Pretty much.
That's how you were walking around like you got hit by a truck.
Yeah, it was like never any intense pain in any one area.
It was just all over sore.
Where's it hurt?
All over.
Everywhere.
After you crashed and you threw.
the like you know trying to get air in your lungs with getting the wind knocked out of you is one
of the worst things but you just go my insides yeah yeah and i felt i was very scared exactly that
there was internal injury but now after it has been proven that a couple carrots healed you
it's pretty funny for you to just rattle off my insides i was worried you like exploded an organ
or something yeah i was like oh boy here we go we got to go in yeah and then you just were okay
I was like, thank God.
Yeah, I was just like trying to get my air back.
And then when I did it just like, it was almost just like numb.
I don't know, probably from sliding in the cold water too,
but it like felt like my insides are all warm and they ached,
but it turned out to be nothing.
Man, dude, it's a good thing that you know how to fall and crash.
Yeah, that could have been Ryan.
He was the one who was initially going to go across.
My head would have been chopped clean off.
I mean, I could have done that.
I'd like to take credit for knowing how to fall.
I hit the ice before I even knew I was going down I don't I got lucky I'll put lucky on
when I watch I feel like you you did you fell as good as possible like I agree like you like
dove towards the ice got above the ice shelf yeah the whole reason we were standing right there
was because we were evaluating the ice and Ryan was going to ride his quad across and then we all go
yeah I don't think we should do it and I'm like yeah yeah it's not worth trying to get the
bike out of there if it if it does sink and all this like
no need to make this video any more expensive.
And then I just hear, ying, ying, look out of you,
and then you start going across.
And then, yeah.
That's exactly it.
I heard you guys talking about not doing it.
I'm like, we got to do it.
I'll just go do it.
The bummer was it didn't even, like you said,
look that cool because it wasn't hard.
You couldn't tell.
Because he wasn't supposed to go into the water.
Whoa, yeah, that part, obviously.
Yeah, it was tough.
So Evan's whole run up to that was he was riding over floating chunks of ice,
but you can see the one rotates.
Yeah, you couldn't really tell.
But my favorite part was when you, you show,
Evan shows me this video,
classic Instagram video of people just getting wrecked,
you know, falling on skateboards, bikes,
breaking their arms, falling out of cars.
And then I'm like, okay, yeah, this is gnarly, dude.
And then his clip comes up.
I'm like, oh, you made it into one of those, like, crash compilations.
One other thing that happened before that,
so we're getting ready to go out film that day.
And I don't know why it came up,
but you were talking about, have you ever seen that clip when Travis Pistrano was in, like,
where were they, like, Brazil?
And he tried water skipping the pool.
And he pretty much did the exact same thing as you.
You don't want to be water skipping with, like, a 90 degree edge.
Not good.
Yeah, it's generally a bad idea.
And then it ended up happening like an hour and a half later.
Oh, you were talking about it before, before, dude.
And I was like, I think you crashed at the perfect speed.
If you've been going faster, you would have hit higher and could have, like, you know,
really, like, flipped over the ball.
or like, you know, something else bad could have happened.
And if you'd slowed down, you would have hit higher on your body and been like underneath the ice.
So it is pretty crazy that by not reacting and doing anything, you hit at the perfect speed.
If you watch it play by play, that you hit and then you rotate up over the ice, almost cantilevering your energy off of it.
Science.
Yeah, you're like a cat.
Dude, it's fucking crazy.
You get lucky once in a while.
Yeah, I'm glad you're okay.
that was gnarly glad you're okay brother so what did you do this weekend we've me cj and ben were gone
but what were you two gibronies up to i was i was freaking because you said you were saying back
and you were supposed to get your jet ski winter eyes i didn't see that no i know i was funny i was
like you said you were gonna get appointments done and winterize your stuff i didn't i walked
fast to jet ski so many times and i was like i never winterized it but you were babysitting you said
Yeah, on Friday, yeah.
Well, Sydney nannies, and they had a Christmas party,
so she's watching the kids, and I'm there.
And then it was just funny because the kids were already in bed.
I wasn't doing anything, and she fell asleep because I was like,
yeah, you can fall asleep.
And then they came home and they're like, oh, look who it is,
your babysitter Mike.
I didn't do anything.
It had to be concerning for them coming out of the house.
We should have came home earlier.
No, I mean, they were like, after the kids go to bed,
you can have a couple beers.
Oh, my.
Now they're letting you drink on the job.
It was good.
But, yeah, not quite to the caliber of what you got,
whatever you guys were doing.
I was living vicariously through the staff.
Man, we needed a babysitter this weekend as well.
We need out.
That's what Grandpa Ron came with for.
Was he babysitting us or were we babysitting him?
Be real.
Who was babysitting who?
Nobody was babysitting anyone.
Anyone.
It was just running around.
It was like a competition between who could be the bigger degenerate.
fact I said in the airport, since Evan and Mike aren't here, I think I'll take the role as lead degenerate.
Yeah, somebody had to do it. I took it with pride. I don't know if I lived up to the expectation, but I tried.
Yeah, you tried. Yeah. We, uh, so we brought me and CJ's grandpa Ron, who you guys have seen him in the videos.
Eighty-one years old, and we brought him to Vegas. And, uh, we went there because it's always been one of our dreams to go to a Vikings game with our grandpa.
Like, ever since me and CJ were little kids, we, we just grew up watching the Vikings games with
Grandpa Ron. And he's a major, major Vikings fan, lifelong Vikings fan. He's been disappointed
so many times. So we always said, oh, it would be so fun to go to like an actual game in person
together with him. And then when this one popped up in Vegas, you guys know we love Vegas and
Grandpa Ron loves Vegas. And we were like, wow, this is a great opportunity. So we went to
Vegas. And boy, if we have a good time. Dude, obviously, like, he's 80 years old. We should probably
maybe go easy
maybe not stay out that late
not do a ton of walking
because you know you're just constantly on the move
dude he put us to bed
yeah like every single night
like he was like oh you guys are going to bed
fucking pussies yeah and then he'd get up before us too
that was his thing too he's up at 6 a.m
and like I was trying to give him like the way out like
when we first I was like yeah I'm pretty tired
like maybe we should just go to bed early
just so we can like all have a you know
full energy tomorrow to really hit it
hard.
He goes, going to bed.
Yeah.
We landed at midnight.
I was just going to say, you guys
landed to go to bed.
Yeah, we landed at 12 o'clock
Vegas time, which would have been 2 a.m.
our time from where we came from.
And our grandpa then wanted to stay out another two hours.
He pretty much just seemed to draw the line at Taco Bell.
Yeah, he didn't.
And he was only, he was like, all right, let's go home.
And he dragged us around that town, showed us how to do it,
not that we really needed any advice.
Dude, it was like the blind leading the blind.
It was the blind.
It was for our entire.
lives like the family just thinks of grandpa ron as like the card player gambler like yeah and he's
always wheeling and dealing right so we've always thought that you know he knew a thing or two about
playing cards and gambling right he does it a lot i don't think he's any better at it than we are
and we're really bad every person i talked to it sounds like they actually win in vegas not us
but yeah it's so funny we're sitting there we were sitting there and he was losing money and we were losing
money. I was like, well, I see where we get it from.
Oh, Grandpa? Damn it. But we straightened it out. We straightened it out at the end.
We did. We put some money on the most boring Vikings game in the history of the world.
Yeah, we had five grand down on them winning by more than three points, and they did not win
by three points. They pushed. They got three points. So we got our money back, thank God.
But they could have kicked that field goal at the very end, and we would have won.
That was, I think, the nail in the coffin for me on it being a,
the Vikings fan.
That was such a dick move of them.
They could have just kicked the freaking field goals, like a 28-yard field goal.
And then they were like, just kidding.
Let's Squib kick it.
And then they almost scored a touchdown on the return of that.
So like, it was bad, it was a bad move.
Yeah, keep in mind, they didn't score those three points until about whatever, like three
minutes left of the game.
Yeah.
And I was watching it back at home and I couldn't help but laugh.
Just zero score, zero to zero, first score to second quarter.
And I'm like, dude, the boys are just wanting a good time.
here they're at the game they paid a lot of money
tickets it was the lowest scoring game in NFL
history since 2007
I mean it couldn't be any lower scoring unless they got a safety
yeah but uh so we go walking out of there we're like well
I guess at least we got our money back and then Ben are kind of just like
bum because we were filming this for a video too like we were committed we were
either going to double this money or lose the money
yeah and we're like well red kind of is our color
fuck it let's go put five grand on red
so we like anticipate this we tell everyone what we're doing and you know this is probably what
five o'clock we're like okay yeah let's go like get a good meal in us like you know we we like
we took our time we took our time we went to one good we were looking at the tables and we looked at
another one i feel like i was kind of like the one snooping it out yeah all i was doing was going and
for one you had to find a table that would let you bet that 5k so you had to go in the high limit rooms
but then I was just looking at if they were rolling reds
or if they were doing every other
and that table that we saw that
it had like six or seven reds in a row
so I was like I don't know I feel like red's hot here
not that that meant anything
RJ kept saying that and he goes
I don't know I think we need a table that's hot on red
I'm like bro it's 50 50 yeah but I feel like they just
reoccur like I don't know man I guess and it worked though
it worked it did I'm picturing you guys doing all this research
going around and then being like, shit, what is our second favorite color?
It's black.
It was so fun.
We walked in there and the high limit room's all fired up.
You know, everybody in there is betting big money.
So we come in and we throw ours down.
This guy, this random guy just kind of heard what we were doing and just followed us.
We kind of had a little bit of like a posse.
Yeah, like they were rolling around with us as we were checking because they heard we were about to do it.
And then, you know, grandpa was making friends talking everybody.
Well, he was telling everyone.
He was like, yeah, they're going to put five granders.
on. They're nuts. They're nuts. They got
you see, they got this YouTube channel called
See what I've got to look them up. Everybody. It's the best.
But anyways, Andy was wearing a
grandpa shirt. So everywhere we went,
CJ and him were both wearing grandfran shirts. It was funny.
Yeah, it looked like a family vacation.
Yeah. When we were walking in there
to the table and we finally decided
on a table, we're putting it down.
CJ looks over and goes, oh,
should we do black?
I go, no!
I don't remember doing that. I go, are you
fucking serious, dude? We just spent the last
four hours trying to find this table that's hot on red and now you're asking if we should do black
it was they was a sweat dude it was i couldn't look when it started spinning because i was like oh my god
and then oh when it hit it just was so electric yeah oh my gosh ryan just about got his ass beat by
the yeah they were like the casino you can't films or right right the whole time i've been like
before it was spinning sick about like that ending shot and getting that because how fucking
important it was and the guy was coming around the table coming to me like stop stop you'll hear it
in the video is him yelling and then I kind of like move my hand to move it out of the way of him because
he's coming towards me like to grab me and I move it and then I hit the record button on my phone
so I had to go like this and then I hit it again and we just like ran out of the room and he was like
following standing looking at us they were pretty well we just robbed him of 5k and then we just
got away with filming the whole thing
Dude, I was waiting for them to be like, he's got a magnet in his pocket.
Like, they mess with it and, like, void our money.
That's probably something those assholes would do, you know?
They lose a little bit of money and then they try to get it back.
Yeah, you never know.
I was nervous, dude.
Grandpa Ron was trying to bodyguard you, too.
He was.
Yeah, he was getting in the way.
Yeah, he was like a blocker.
81 years old.
He's going to get in the way of this guy that's going after Ryan.
Yeah.
But that's kind of guy is.
Like, fakes a injury or something like that to distract him.
So that was a big win, though.
We were pretty pumped.
By the time we did that, it was,
1230. So we had been anticipating it for roughly six, seven hours of like being ready for this
moment, you know. So it felt great. It put us back to even. Put us back to even. Can't complain
about that. Which was great. What number was it? Like what? Red 26. Red 26. Yeah. There's a lot of
happiness there, but I will say I was much more happy when we just got to our seats with Grandpa
Ron. We had the best seats. I just looked at Grandpa. I'll give you the
video but like he was like he was so happy i've never seen him so happy before he's just
clapping and like yeah i i i have not felt that much joy in a while i think like that might
have been the most joy i can at least remember experiencing in a long time i was so happy because
he was so happy and i look at ben and ben just looked at me like you're over there ryan i was an
adopted and man did we make up for all the
missed years of not having you a part of the family and just bullying Ryan's ass like
well it's tough when you got Grandpa around someone's gonna be getting I mean everyone's
getting there getting shit talk too yeah dude we had to tell grandpa to step off him a couple
times you know he's just chirping you yeah yeah yeah kept bringing up right that Ryan voted for
Hillary we're like yeah you got to go easier so you got uh induced into the you know part
that out I don't want you to get bullied by the fucking subs no there was this one line
where grandpa someone said something about Ryan being dumb
And before that, we were playing blackjack
and Ryan was being slow with, like, counting how much he had.
Well, because it seemed like if I had,
he had 10 and a 3.
And it took him a while to add 10 plus 3.
And Grandpa just chimed in out of nowhere
when we were eating like an hour later.
Yeah, no shit, he's dumb.
The guy didn't know how to add 10 plus 3.
Like, just hit like a hard line.
Oh, my.
I think he even drug his education in, too.
He couldn't believe that Ryan went to a private school.
Yeah, it was tough out there, dude.
It's tough being.
stupid the world's really hard when you're dumb yeah especially when you're friends with you
but that's what it was like growing up is like you were just with all your cousins and like i mean
you're dishing it out but you were taking it at the same time yeah like the statement of the apple
doesn't fall far from the tree bro i was hanging out with the tree this weekend it was like it was
crazy okay so gran fun time took you into the family that was nice of him i did get he's razzing you a
little bit he did say um so you got accepted and what does that make ken because i'm pretty sure he
was there.
No, Ken wasn't with us.
Ken only came and hung out with us when there was a meal involved.
We said, hey, Ken, we need, let's go to dinner.
And he'd be like, all right, I'll meet you there.
And then he'd leave immediately afterwards.
Very suspicious.
First of all, Ken did plan this trip before anyone planned it.
He bought a ticket to the game at least.
It was a vacation farm.
And there's some other friends from the area that were going.
So I don't, honestly, I don't blame him for like going with them at all.
No, I don't blame him for hanging out with him.
But it is insane that he was, like, treating you guys like some distant homies that he was okay to maybe grab supper with.
Well, we were hanging out with his friends and he wasn't even with us.
Yeah, we spent the whole night with one of them.
Yeah, so we were like, where is this guy?
There was that cowboy convention in town.
The rodeo was in town.
Oh, the PBR.
I mean, he's kind of a cowboy.
Picking up buckle bunnies.
Yeah, he might have been looking for a barrel racer.
If he was, I don't, you know, either way, I, I don't.
I understand, you know, this is Ken's vacation, and he wanted to keep it far away from us.
So just the fact that we were in the same town was kind of ruined his vacation.
Can we talk about when we first got there and we were checking in, though?
So we were standing there because we were waiting for Ben's brother to come and surprise Grandpa,
which Grandpa didn't know he was coming.
So we're just like killing time.
We're kind of just standing there.
And this like dude and a girlfriend and the dude's girlfriend, he clearly was there for the rodeo comes up.
And the way he was like, hey, what?
what's up and you were like what's up dude i thought that you knew him personally ben but anyways so
this guy comes up turns out he's a sub turns out he's a sub and they're chatting and these guys got
his girlfriend with and ben goes oh you guys in time for the rodeo and they're like yeah yeah
and ben goes oh perfect yeah ken's looking for a barrel racer this weekend or something like that
and then ben and then ken just looks at this guy's girlfriend and just goes what's your IG
right in front of the sub it was just asked her and she's like
Like, uh, and like we, dude, I'm in the background.
I go, oh, I had to walk away.
It was tough.
I go, I'm really sorry about him.
I go, ever since his speed dating, this dude has been.
He's an animal.
He's a savage.
Weirdly savage with the women.
At least he was direct, man.
I think he understood, too.
It was like something, something weird about like these subscribers and their girlfriends
being okay with Ken.
Yeah, the guy wasn't even mad.
Like, I feel if, for one, none of us would do that because we have a girlfriend,
him, but if one of us did do that, they would probably not take it as lightly.
Like, Ken can get away with it.
For Ken, it was, like, almost, like, kind of cucky, like, the guy who was kind of into it.
I don't know if it was that, but he was like, well, gee, there's a lot more chill with it.
He just laughed.
Yeah, that was, that was out of pocket, though.
We actually had to have a word with Ken after that one.
You can't just do that.
Dude, it was a good thing to Ken and Grand Paran weren't together.
You never know what would come of those two's mouth.
That's true.
Yeah, Ryan, you were, like, freaking walking away half the time.
There was quite a few times.
It was tough, too, because I was the film or so.
I'm like, I have to stay close.
Dude, Ryan started to walk out a couple times.
So uncomfortable.
Yeah, dude, he was so uncomfortable.
And Grandpa's just yelling, like, just saying stuff that shouldn't be said in general.
Yeah, that only an 81-year-old would say at times.
Dude, yeah, these street performers, they're out here just trying to make a dollar, right?
And Grandpa Ron is treating them like their, like, zoo animal.
Come on, Grandpa.
Like, dude, he was being savage with some of the stuff he would say.
It was awesome, though.
what the fuck it was awesome i love that he's like well they're just performers they're not
they're not real people that's not what i was bullshit with them yeah they were they were laughing
back too they understood but actually i think probably the most embarrassed i was was in the morning
before the viking's game we had tried to get an uber for about 45 minutes couldn't and had to
walk four miles to the stadium and i don't think ben passed a single person in a raiders jersey
without going, hey man, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for what's about to happen.
He was talking shit.
I had to tell him, like, dude, have you not seen all the videos of people getting in fights
against other teams at NFL games?
I told him when we got in the same, I'm like, listen, dude, you can't be doing that.
Yeah.
Like, we're going to get in a fight more unlikely.
Someone will punch you.
Yeah, I know, but we'd have a grandpa would have.
We just didn't want to see this happen.
This is a great day.
Well, because you're normally on like a tree.
Thankfully, we didn't have to deal with that.
Yeah.
Thank God.
Where we were sitting, where we were sitting,
it was some pretty classy people.
Yeah, all Vikings fans.
Yeah, there was more Vikings fans at an away game than there were Raiders fans.
Yeah,
that's got to be Las Vegas's like game plan with like doing this stadium.
Yeah,
I mean,
it's just like every home game,
you probably have just whoever you're playing's fan base,
come to Vegas,
gamble,
hang out,
go to the game because it just makes another reason to go there,
you know?
Yeah,
because I mean,
where do you want to travel?
Cincinnati.
or freaking there you know
shit yeah those are our people there
walking around that's why I wasn't too
worried about it a lot of Minnesota people around
no there's just I feel like anyone
even if you live in Vegas
you kind of like you know
an apple off the same tree so I wasn't
too worried about it that's true they can't have
this like I shouldn't say
like they can't have what we have you know being
Vikings fans like being sad all our lives
but but the Las Vegas Raiders
weren't always the Las Vegas Raiders
not for very long so like they don't have
that the roots that's true yeah they haven't all of them do for as long yeah and they have a stupid
slogan just win baby that's a dumbest slogan what should we do how can we hype people up how can
we hype people up uh what what about just win baby just okay is there literally anything else
and nobody said spoke up and said anything well we gotta close this meeting now in five minutes
so that's what evan was saying in his head when he's going to cross the ice just win baby just
win, baby. Didn't work out. I lost. Yeah, that was a stupid slogan. And we have
Skoll. I mean, I know people are pretty protective over that, but kind of an odd word.
Anyways. Anyways. One thing I did learn in Vegas, though, is when I'm really hung over,
my internal dialogue turns off. Like, you guys have that where you like talk to yourself
in your brain as you're walking around? You guys all have that? Yeah. I think I saw an Instagram thing
that like 40% of people don't have an internal dialogue, which is really weird. Seems insane. Yeah,
I don't know.
What are those people do?
You're just saying like your brain working?
It's not thinking.
No.
It's on autopilot mode.
Yeah.
But like when you're walking around,
are you having conversations with yourself in your head?
Just thinking?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's why it's hard.
Like it is hard for me to even believe that because like you have a point there.
It is just thinking.
But it's like,
you're like talking to yourself or like,
all right.
Maybe you are sitting in the skid steering.
You're like,
all right,
I got to move this over there.
And then you're thinking about like,
okay,
well,
if I do it this way,
it'll work fast.
Like you're trying to form a plan.
You're right.
It's thinking, but you're talking with yourself.
It's the talking about yourself.
Not just like, I go there.
But yeah, when you're hungover, it is just I go there.
It turns off.
I eat this.
I lay down.
I was walking around and I realized that I hadn't talked to myself in hours.
And it was so peaceful.
I was like, man, I'm better when I'm not talking to myself.
You just like are just trying to survive, dude.
And there's something beautiful about that.
Huh.
So I think I might try shutting off my internal dialogue more.
You just got to be hung over more.
Yeah, I don't know if I can do that anymore.
This sounds miserable.
Yeah, I'm going on a health kick this week, dude.
Yeah.
Right after this, I'm going, yeah, I'm trying to be like Evan.
Eat more carrots.
Hitting the gym.
I'm getting a good meal in me.
I'm going to sauna.
I'd like to do a cold plunge, but we don't have a tub.
Ordered one, though.
Go jump in the lake.
Oh, no excuses, yeah.
Jump in the lake.
Then I've got to go get a chainsaw.
True.
I'll take care of the hole.
Oh, there you want one so bad.
Evan will go find.
one for you.
There's something worse about jumping in the lake, though.
It's just like, well, the water's moving, that you got to drive there.
Yeah, and it's like, it's just much harder.
It is much harder hopping in there than hopping in just a little manufactured tub.
Pool.
Yeah, a little pool with some ice cubes floating around it.
You could roll around in the snow.
I don't know if that's the same.
I think you could get like burns from that if you were naked.
I don't want to be anywhere near wherever Cs might not do with this rolling around.
You imagine you see you're rolling around to the snowbank naked?
Well, I'm actually a little more concerned that Evan had the idea.
I'm starting to think if you came out of the sauna and you rolled in the snow would stick to you, you'd stand up a snowman.
You could try it after this?
You ever do that in the hot tub when you're a kid's?
Well, yeah, just like jump in the snow.
Yeah, you jump off the snow and you like try to run around.
We used to do it all the time.
Sometimes the snow was hard.
It was soft the other day and now it's hard.
Hard and you're just face-plan.
Skin your knees up.
What did you guys used to do as kids to keep yourself entertained?
My favorite thing to do is build snow forts.
Oh, yeah, same.
Yeah, we built some pretty crazy snow forts.
You were a snow fort kid?
Oh, yeah.
Didn't you build, like, a whole runway or, like, jump off your roof?
Maybe talked about it on here, but yeah, like, each winter we would build, like, a crazy
rolling for snowboarding.
So one time we went to my, or was always at the same buddy's house, which is parents hated.
Yeah, no kidding, you guys up on their roof.
You know how bad that is for the shingles and stuff?
Ladder up to the roof.
I mean, I think, yeah, that's a good point.
Is it bad for the shingles, or is that just what your parents tell you so you don't play on the roof?
Depends if you're scraping.
We did no damage to the shing.
It depends if you're skateboarding and snowboarding.
I think it is, I think it is damn.
It's hard on the shingles.
It's not necessarily.
You don't want a bunch of traffic up there.
Yeah, the only thing that would have been hard on it was.
You think big shingle has been manufacturing, planting these ideas?
The latter companies hate him.
Yeah, I do remember doing that.
We built this big rolling off the garage and it was sick.
And then the next year, which we even had less.
So we went around.
We had a lawnmower and a two-place snowmobile trailer and we went all around town picking up their snowpiles to build this 20-foot roll in for our snowboard jump.
Oh, yeah, we weren't on the news.
We made it on the news.
Were you the talker?
I was like, I'll talk.
And it was the same vibe as as what would happen today.
It's the same exact vibe.
Oh, my gosh.
What do you mean?
Oh, my gosh.
I would talk and you guys would be snickering in the background and I get done.
And then you'd been like, bro, you said, why you say it?
and then you guys would laugh and give me a hard time
then we wait for it to come out on the news
and then you do it all over again
but yeah and then shortly after that
I forget what it was the same day
but the the my friend
who it was his parents house
he got all he had a he was a little bit of hot head
and he got really upset and destroyed the whole run in
why it's a shoveling news interview
it wasn't necessarily me but it was something
we couldn't agree on something and he like
destroyed it and he's like my house and we're all like
No, we worked so hard, dude.
He's like, I don't fucking care.
Damn.
And then what?
You just went home?
Yeah, it was the end of it.
Are you guys friends after that or no?
Yeah, we were, that kind of a final straw.
No, we were still friends, but we were like, man, dude, you got to get that anger under control.
I didn't find it, but I found this article that's written about you.
So, C-Boys TV, the C stands for chaos.
What?
Your cousin?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, she wrote a whole thing.
I think she would at least know that the C stands for Cormoron.
She stands for chaos.
Yeah, I love that.
She's just trying to make a fun play on words.
I thought it was fake, honestly, because he said,
Sandman also says he's a Taylor Swift fan
and his favorite song is Cardigan.
Okay, she twisted my words up there.
True journalist.
Would you have Ken help me out with his article?
I remember her asking me that.
None of my class thinks that you like Taylor Swift.
What's your favorite Taylor Swift song?
So I just said that.
But that didn't mean that I'm a big Swifty.
Nice.
Is he coming?
Dan, da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-la-la-la-la.
Big Kenny!
What's up, dude?
Yeah, we were wondering if you'd show up to this podcast.
Yeah, it looks like you've been going for a real long time.
We have been going for a real long time.
We've been missing you, though.
How was your vacation?
We talked about our vacation, but we also talked about how you weren't with us.
So we just want to quickly ask how you were doing this.
I mean, I was with you briefly.
Only when there was a free dinner involved.
I had a good vacation, you know.
I was down some money bad and then ran it back.
You did.
I got to even.
Nice.
Good job, Kenny.
So proud of you.
So anyway, Mike, you were a snowboarder kid.
Yep.
And I was just like a little side note.
I remember some moms like, oh yeah, the kids play outside for three hours today.
Like three hours straight.
And I was just like, whoa, that's a long time.
And then I started thinking I was like, for one, no, it's not.
For two, we still do that.
We like, you know, spend six, seven hours outside.
And then I was thinking back to when I was a kid, I was like, wait, no, you put your
snow suit on.
Yeah, you get dialed in and put it in a shift.
Yeah.
This would make you guys laugh.
I would do weird shit.
Like, when I got my snow suit on and stuff, I would go outside and like play whatever, build for it.
And if I had to poop, I would just hold it because I didn't want to go inside.
I was having so much fun.
For sure, I mean, it's tough to get off the snowsuit when you were a kid.
I thought for sure you were going to say, I would just shift my pants.
That's what I thought too.
That never happened.
but yeah, I held it, like, sometimes, like, unhealthily long,
just so I could stay outside and keep playing.
Dude, one time I was, I was skiing.
I was, like, a little kid, and I didn't want to go inside when I was skiing,
so I just, I just pissed my pants.
Really?
Yeah, rental boots.
All day? Yeah, all fucking day.
Yeah.
What?
I mean, I was like a little kid.
Like a little, little kid.
You just pissed your pants.
It was like kind of.
How little could you have been?
Fifteen.
I don't know, probably like four or five.
No way.
Yeah.
Did you still have diapers?
No, I just didn't want to go inside, I guess.
Damn.
You were skiing at four or five and you were just pissing your pants all day.
Pretty much.
What did your parents say when you took your clothes off and you're just drenched and pissed?
I think they were trying to figure out what was going on.
They were like, did you hit your head today?
Okay, probably.
Damn, I kind of just outed myself there.
You didn't have been older than that.
Shortly after I outed myself.
That's pretty wild, though.
So you were skiing out of a resort?
C.J.
Or, I don't know.
That seems like, yeah.
No, no, now I think about it, I might have been one.
Whoever makes them feel better.
How big is a four-year-old?
No, I don't know.
I don't know how old I was.
I was pretty young.
I know that.
And they were rental boots.
You just returned them?
Yeah.
I remember, like, hearing a friend that was like, yeah, like, I shit my pants and it went down
into my shoe and he showed me his shoes and it had stains on it.
I go, yeah.
I'm like, how is your poop going to get into your shoe?
What?
How are getting his shoe, bro?
I was like, actually, though, like, you pooped your pants and now it's in your shoes?
He's like, dude, it goes down your leg.
Was it, like, runny?
He's like, I don't know.
It just ended up in my shoe.
And I was like, there's no way that's possible.
But, like, obviously, it's got to go down.
The fact that he kept those shoes, too.
I know.
Yeah.
Yeah, that was his name.
Poop's name.
What's his name?
Oh, yeah.
What's that Poop St. Corbyn?
Because that would make so much more sense
why you had a friend named Poop St. Corbyn.
It would.
But Poopin'Corpon,
as far as I know, never even pooped himself.
Oh.
Stolen Valor.
He should have, yeah.
Yeah.
As far as I know, he also did not like that name.
He probably did everything in his power to not shit himself.
What else you guys used to do as kids?
Give me some kid entertainment stuff.
PlayStation 2?
PlayStation 1.
Evan's older.
I'd never had a PlayStation.
I feel you played Wii, Ryan.
We were a Wii family.
Like instead of an Xbox, we got a Wii.
And it was kind of like the thing.
It would be like your kid asking for a dirt bike,
and instead you get him a mountain bike.
Like it's lamer in every way.
It doesn't do anything that he wants it to.
But it's the same idea.
It's got two wheels.
It's a gaming system.
And my parents are like, how about a Wii?
And then I was a Wii kid.
So it was pretty tough out here.
for me. It spends a lot about how I grew up.
Transitions and Wii on the weekends.
Yeah, I got to game so late.
Like, we got a Wii, but, like, of course, like, two and a half years after they came out
when they came down in price.
So when we're like, we're lame then.
Yeah, when they were, like, lame.
And then when I'm playing it, I'm like, kind of feeling, like, should I be having this
much fun?
Like, people do not.
It is kind of fun.
Like, you had to, like, keep a secretive.
Yeah, for, like, dance, dance revolution, you know?
Like, two years later on, like, Black Friday, we get some mats and we're, like, playing
the game and I'm like it's kind of fun but like people used people did this like five years ago
we bowling was sick and the sports resort we peaked at bowling yeah we sports has a special place
in my heart at least dance dance revolution man I haven't thought about that in a while did you guys
have that in school yeah we had in gym class yeah I remember I had that in gym they had like the
industrial ones like they like they balled out and got like the like heavy duty that was a big deal
though. Yeah, what a short-lived
thing to get such a good. That wasn't that short-lived
though. Like, dance dance-dance was popular
since, I think, I'm
pretty sure dance-d-R, dance-d-d-R, you guys
saw them in arcades, right? You're talking about it.
They were in like the, I think,
late 90s. Can you want to look that up
over? They're in like movies. And then
I'm pretty sure then it went to
like console so you could do it
at your house. And there's just, like, arcade
games. Yeah, like there was the arcade one
with like the bar and shit.
In case you fell off.
In case you were DDR and too hard.
Grab onto it and you can go faster.
Yeah, you'd like lift yourself off so you could have less pressure on your feet.
Came out in Japan in 98.
Yeah.
I released to North America and Europe in 99.
Wow.
I was pretty right about that.
I couldn't dance then.
Were you a dance revolutioner, Evan?
New.
Nice.
Evan just played Grand Theft Auto.
He started at Grand Theft Auto 1.
They did San Andreas.
Then he went to Vice City.
Then he went to three, four, five.
and now he's anticipating six.
Six.
He already asked for a month off in 2025 when it comes out.
Dude, I actually played some GTA 5 this weekend for the first time
in probably six months just because of seeing the trailer.
The trailer for GTA 6 was the most viewed non-music video video ever released on YouTube.
That's crazy to me.
There's 72 million views in 24 hours.
So we had Luke Cullen, Kyle Cullen, he's another YouTuber,
his brother who shoots all his videos and does.
pictures and stuff we'd flew in him out and he was hanging with us for the week just to just help
help work and stuff and uh so i spent the week with him and that dude's a huge grand theft auto guy
would not stop talking about it like he was pumped on it and i was pumped to hear about it just because
he was so excited and he's like how many how many views you think this is going to get in the first 24
hours i'm like i mean i don't know i'm sure it'll do good but i was not expecting it to break the
record that is insane yeah did you guys hear what's actually happening now so they had obviously
everyone's seen it. It's based on Florida.
And they are, they like took real life events that have happened in Florida and integrated
it into the game or at least just the trailer. So they had like the lady with the
knives or whatever, the guy with the garden hose that was naked, water in his lawn,
the alligator, the dude with the tattoos. They took like real life people and put them in the game.
Those people are now suing. Oh my God. Because they want money.
course they want money because they took them and i don't know what's going to happen but i mean they
had to have seen that comment i you would have thought but they must have just thought they were okay
because it was many it's all over social media like a split screen of like the game and then real life
and it's literally spot on yeah so honestly i could see those people maybe getting like a million
bucks or a couple million because that's nothing to grant the thought i mean they've been making like
a million bucks a day since ever it's true you know it's just one of those things you know if you
like, I don't know, use someone's logo, but you completely change it and you like,
I think, I think they could probably beat them because I highly doubt those people.
There's like maybe six of them.
Like you think they're going to be able to come together and take down Grand Theft Auto and
get, but also I could just see them being like, whatever, like this is literally pocket
changed to us, here you go, and then those people being all happy.
The dude suing Rockstar Games.
His nickname is The Joker, and he's suing them for $1 to $2 million.
That's literally probably nothing.
That's what he looks like.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
That's the game version.
They actually did change all of his tattoos.
I think that was the real one because the game version he had yellow hair.
Well, the game version he has, the game version he has barbed wire tattoo above his mustache, which the real guy doesn't have.
But they totally did copy it, but they might have changed enough to get away.
And I mean, I just highly doubt that guy's going to be able to get a team of lawyers together.
That's going to beat this.
But here's why I think they could end up with something because sometimes people, sometimes people sue like Walmart for like 200.
million.
The thing is, though, is like a lot of times it's not even people.
It's like lawyers that are doing these cases on pro bono.
Yeah.
They sue for a shitload of money against these corporations and then they get a percentage
of it.
But yeah, I mean, it's...
So anyways, it'll be interesting to see what happens with all that.
Because it's kind of a big thing.
One thing, coming out in 2025, one thing I can be sure of is that we don't have much
time to play video games, but I think I got to make time to play at.
Mike, you need time to do all of your hobbies.
You have more hobbies than anyone I don't.
know and I love that and because I wish I had more hobbies but I don't think I'm as optimistic
about my time as you where where you like I would love to get into tons of different things
but I just go there's no point car yeah I was like well we we could go on your drift car yeah
oh look I think about that all the time I got too much hobbies uh what do I do well can't just like
get rid of them you know you actually like you can't just like stop liking doing something
no I was cracking up about that all weekend so before the guys had
it out we like went over to jakes and he was drifted in his mustang i brought my drift car could have
been meada was there ryan's tc oh yeah ryan brought the tc which was very nostalgic and i obviously
could have been more prepared but like the battery was dead okay whatever like i can jump it every time
i started everything was going wrong for me i ran out of fuel i was wondering why you can i
you should calculate how much money you have into the car but then deduct it or divide it by the amount
of times you've gotten to use it or just time spent driving it and see how much it costs every
time you turn the key or at least try to turn the key the smile per dollar coefficient I got a long
ways before I work that number to anything right now you'd have been better off renting a Lamborghini
yeah and drifting it you'd be way better off each time no dude I'm still in like in a position
like the worst part is is like I'm not saying I can't look back like I can't
can't sell like you can do anything well you can i can sell yeah i could sell it for a loss but like bro at
this point like there's no point in trying to you know what if that happens again with another car
whatever like i'm just gonna stick with it properly yeah and do it good news is now it's winter
so don't have to worry about trying to drive it yeah yeah yeah man it made it way funnier dude
like that might have been the best part that was better than the drifting and i'm in my opinion
i was chuckling it was i was not i was not having it but they didn't tell my
hood flew open I just had to laugh
that was the breaking point
it really paints a good picture in Jake snap
one of my two laps like I swing around
like I watched it 20 times
man I did look good there and then quite literally
the next lap after that
hoods up the hoods up
cooling is like
yeah at least you're saving money on tires
because you never have the chance to burn them off
wait yeah everyone in the drift scene
is like dude just be prepared to buy
like a million tires but other than that
it's super fun haven't had to
really buy tires at all.
A lot of cool one though. A lot of cool one, though.
She needs some love. The worst part is I got all kinds of people reaching out to me
saying that they can give it love, but I got a trailer this way or that way.
Don more money into it.
Yeah. Well, I'm willing to do that. I just wish I knew how to work on it myself or had time,
but.
It was that great. Another project that would be nice to tackle.
Jake, last time he was on here, he was telling us, you know, how excited he was for this
Mustang build that he's basically turning his daily drone.
driver into a drift car
that he still plans on daily
he still has a raptor.
True.
That thing was drifting like a freaking
no yeah,
no he plans on daily in it.
Oh really?
Yeah.
And so he comes out and he's got his,
he's got his e-break
and he's got a drift glove on.
Yeah.
And he's like,
you know he had done like a thousand laps in preparation.
He was dialed though.
He was dialed out and I was like, dude,
I won't be honest,
this is the best you've ever looked at anything.
Yeah.
riding or driving.
I was like you were,
I think you were made.
for this shit Jake he loved hearing that
you know that fired him up
he was like hell yeah all the practice
laps who else has a spot like that
where they can practice yeah it was fun
being back there yeah the best part too is
it's almost better than like a normal track
because it's got like terrain change
yeah and like the angles
sketchy areas and open areas
it's better than just having an open parking lot
for sure because you got stuff to go around
concrete barriers stuff to run into
stuff to run into semi trucks
gas tanks
Ryan did a full, like, callback.
Like, we have a clip legit from, like, that was probably filmed in 2016, maybe 2015,
but he's drifting at Jake's dads and he's playing Chill Bill.
I listen to Chill Bill like nine times.
Yeah, he listened to Chill Bill over and over and just was just hanging it.
I mean, as much as you can hang a front wheel drive car.
It's funny.
Now, those, the Miata and the TC made it through the day, but you're built-ass drift car.
Well, I'm not, yeah, as far as reliability, like, it's no.
question that it's like so much farther below the tc or the miata but like i got no excuses
yeah i just can't believe it man all we can do is laugh yeah you were good about laughing i would
i would have one day it's one i'd be fucking pissed dude i think i would have just well you can't put a
brick on the gas it's not going to go anywhere i would i don't know what i would have done i would
have freaking posive for sale i don't i can't accept that loss there yeah the rest of the guys
after you guys left you're like so what are you going to do are you going to sell it what do you
think you'd get for this 15 and I'm just like oh probably maybe shut up shut up I don't think
you'd even get 15 so that's what I'm saying I ain't trying to sell it and actually take like a 15 grand
loss we can put up on a post or something I'll buy the motor out of it for the old silver rudy it's the
only good part about the car well at least we have a new thing to add obviously my stand-up jet ski
was pretty tippy top on the list of stupid things to buy that never worked and then I had my hummer
but that kind of redeemed itself.
So it might have kicked itself off the list,
but I think we can put your drift car number one,
my stand up at number two.
Yeah.
What's number three?
Yeah, what's number three?
What's another shitty thing we bought that we hate?
Dude, probably.
Evan's like, my Raptor?
Probably.
No, like probably the mud stang or tiny.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, the mud stang.
Tiny got us through a tough time.
Yeah.
But the mud stang never did anything.
And keep in mind, like, that was a while ago,
but the mud stang actually got motor swapped and we started.
still have nothing good to say about it.
I like how you said Tiny got us through a tough time.
Like, Tani was there for us.
It did, dude.
It was the spring.
We had no money.
And we made like nine tiny videos.
Yeah.
Tiny actually did come through.
Spent $3,500 on that thing.
And we were like, I don't know if we can do this, boys.
Like, we scraped everything together to buy a piece of shit.
What were we thinking?
And we were like, Chevy Aveo, dude.
Are we really going to motor swap this thing?
Is this what we're doing?
And we did that, you know, put our, put our coins in.
in that basket
and did it.
Tiny got us through a tough time.
That was like a pretty viral video
I remember because it hit like 200K.
That's what you were like
a couple days or something like that.
Dainey went crazy.
I think if you looked those videos
are one of the ones
that never continued to get.
Yeah, they kind of just stayed
maybe at 400.
Yeah, your audience for a Chevy
Vale lifted mud cars.
Small.
You look like you had something to say
over there, Kenny?
No, I was going to try
and work something in, but it didn't work.
Ken, did you ever get that
girl's Instagram?
The one with the boyfriend?
Remember when we were waiting?
The barrel burner?
In the lobby.
That subscriber came up to us and you asked his girlfriend for her insta?
No, I didn't.
Did she ever, like, DM you her friend's Instagram?
She was pretty gung-ho on setting you up with the pageant girls or whatever.
What night was that I was?
First night.
No, the third night after the steak place, you were running around.
I'm just kidding.
I was trying to get him scared.
After the steak place, I know I went straight back to bed.
I don't.
I don't know.
I don't know about that.
He went straight to bed after dinner in Vegas.
I swear to God, I got a little too drunk and knew I need to get out of here.
I need to get out of the public eye.
How drunk was the guy, you know?
He was wearing his shoes on his hands.
His underwear on his head.
Yeah, and he had...
They were like cap and underpants.
That's what he looked like.
Like cap and underpants didn't wear his underwear.
on his head, did he?
That's hilarious.
Who did, though?
Somebody does in the cartoons.
Ken, with underwear's on his head?
Like white underwear?
All right,
Ev.
You got anything for us?
No.
You got to have something, Ev.
Come on.
Yeah, how are you such a...
You talk to a fucking post.
We get you on here.
You don't say a word.
We're like, hey, like, how are you feeling after your crash?
All right.
They made me look at you.
Like, that's it.
You go.
Dude, it's you with that.
Nothing more.
Just to act like we're just hanging here.
Get talking like you do.
You good.
Do you want me to set the scene for you?
It's 9.30 p.m.
You and Gavin have been drinking Coors' lights since 4.30.

Sounds like a normal day.
Now everything is done.

He's going to come back with a two-liter of mountain doing some styrofoam cups.
Dude, yeah, those kids were, like, buzzing after they heard pizza party.
And Ken was like, Jesus.
Shut up.
Now we've got to give them pizza?
Jesus.
And they're cutting to our profits.
Best I can do is Frozen Tombstone.
Those kids have done good.
I saw this video on Instagram today.
And maybe think of our boy, Mike, since, I mean, we haven't made fun of them in about 45.
seconds what's the first thing that you think of when like he says something like this what is what
are you envisioning yeah what are you what are you what are you what are you what are you what are you
what are you doing with driving or like no unreliability in general you know it could
really be anything think of reliability in general in general I love the self-awareness Mike
my caption in the group chat to this was Mike on a casual drive to fargo it's yellow too
I mean, he racked really bad.
What?
What?
I gave him a little gas.
Probably hit the throttle a little bit and just
zoom.
The only thing that makes sense is a wheel locked up for no reason.
Basically,
there's people all over in the comments about this and that.
And they're like,
it was so many people are like,
it was the camera that made him do that.
I'm like, first of all, it's not even, yeah.
So anyway, if you watch this with the sound like on and whatever,
you can actually see him.
drop two gears and then go full throttle.
So it's like, what do you expect is going to happen?
It was just hard to tell because it's an S2K, so it only makes noise.
It doesn't move it and faster.
So that guy was just giving him a thumbs up because he was a cool car.
Oh, yeah, I see.
He saw a guy filming and was like, I'm going to give him some revs, drop too many gears.
It probably redlined, and then the tire speed couldn't keep up.
So it was like hitting the brakes.
Yeah.
And it was already maybe a little slick or wet slid.
Shut up.
CJ, you work for an insurance company?
No.
Damn, that was a good enough.
Uh, shout out to the camera man.
This guy fucking nailed that.
Like, this guy is not hired to be here and he nailed this shot.
So many times right here, the guy could have went down and we wouldn't be living with this legendary video.
And then he goes out the window too.
Yeah, that's what I mean.
The guy went out.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was like, I thought the guy that hit went out the window.
That'd be even.
Ryan, dude, we should have brought Ryan to the Ryan convention.
That was.
We had to have just asked you how it was, but I don't know what it is, but the Ryan culture has been building.
Which is really nice.
Because it's a tough place to be.
You should explain.
You guys are all just one and the same.
Dude, that's like whatever skater, whatever they did.
You should briefly explain that.
It's so funny when he does that Ryan meet up.
Yeah, I believe there's, yeah.
That's a real thing.
That's not a skit.
Yeah, no, they did a real life.
Ryan meetup.
What did they say at the end?
Like, they like do a play on Brian.
No Brian's.
Yeah, no Brian's.
I don't know.
Everyone was doing it.
Brian?
No, Ryan.
Even though everyone there was named Brian.
Yeah, what's up with that?
The whole Ryan-Bryan thing?
No, no, the, like, Ryan culture is growing.
Well, I just, I just think that Ryan's have been put down enough
and we're finally ready to, you know, make our place in social media.
Come on places like this podcast.
And I was like, wow, what a stupid name.
So we need a place to come together and hang out as Ryan's.
Is Ryan a stupid name?
Yeah, you told me it was.
Like verbatim.
Oh, no.
I didn't actually mean that, though, Ryan.
Oh, it was just like the way that the words.
syllables came out of your mouth and the way you looked me in the eyes and told me wow what a
stupid name that made me feel like maybe it was true right i was kidding you can like base it also
though like there's a lot of famous ryan so that that's kind of where my brain goes like
there's i mean at ryan reynolds i feel like you're being pretty well represented who else uh who's
the quarterback guy and gosling uh tannahill and so there's a lot of ryan i mean i mean i would say
the only famous CJ is probably a fake CJ,
and that's in, uh,
CJ Hamm.
CJ Hamm,
the legendary running back from the playoff.
He's a fullback.
Oh, yeah,
he's a fullback.
And then in that game,
sorry to go back to that.
In the game,
they're like,
this is,
CJ Ham's in the game.
This is his first run of the season.
I was like,
what the hell have they been doing with him?
This guy's a force to be reckoned with.
Sorry.
What about Evans?
Uh, there's,
I'm just,
Evan,
whatever you do,
don't say anything.
what okay good good job you're following the rules
this dude is just silent
he said for himself
he's like I'm gonna go on here and not say a word
it's okay how few words I can say I haven't had anything to say
there's not that many
it's like oh fuck I don't even know
classic see you almost started saying something
I feel bad because on this
on the first podcast I didn't say word I was scared
and the less you talk
the harder it is to start speaking.
Yeah, and I'm not like,
I'm just trying not to, like, jump over anyone
and you guys have been, like, going to.
And I'm interested in what you're saying,
so I'm just been sitting on the sidelines listening.
Yeah, can you ask you if he wasn't?
Yeah, I don't know what to say.
I don't care what you guys are saying.
Give him a break.
He's not on camera that much.
At one time in our lives, it was.
That was a true statement.
Now it's not, though.
No, it is cool.
That's a fun part about being on camera,
is that when you first start, you're like,
do I sound like that?
You know, we talked about that.
Like, you really get over it and you get over talking into the lens like it's a person.
First time we ever met Evan, we were on our way to Idaho for a dirt biking trip.
And our friend David asked if his friend Evan could ride with us there.
Evan hops in that truck.
Doesn't say a single word the entire way except for one thing.
When Ryan pulled out of front of a semi, he goes, semi's coming.
Very calmly and quiet.
Dude, that was sketchy.
I was sitting on the passenger side, like looking out.
I'm like, does, you know how to drive?
I've known you for like 20 minutes.
We should have let you out in the drive.
We got chatting eventually, though once Ben and Cody were sleeping.
Eventually.
Yeah, it was me.
What were you thinking?
Were you thinking like these guys are a bunch of switch?
Yeah, and later that drive, we ran out of gas.
So I'm sure you were.
Well, I mean, it was my fault that we ran out of gas.
It was.
We figured that way.
That's good that you had a little bit of guilt in that
because otherwise it probably would have been pretty aggravated.
Didn't you say you held in that guilt
for like quite a while.
Yeah, I didn't tell him for a couple of years.
Before you let it go, go out there.
I did see that today,
three years ago today, you came out
and we filmed the original on ice.
Amazing.
Oh, I thought you were saying he came out of the other one.
Three years ago today, you came out.
And hung out, you know.
That's all right.
I thought it came out of closet.
Oh, that was only three years ago?
I guess so.
Yeah, Micah was so hungover in that video.
He didn't wake up until two, remember?
I just couldn't.
biggest YouTube video ever at that point for sure which is like talk that's right
honestly yeah like slept through it talk about like living standard you slept through that dude
I forgot about that couldn't get them up when you said whatever let's just do it right do it right now
and then I still love sleeping don't get me wrong there I don't have crippling hangovers like
that anymore try to be a little because honestly like since I was just so bum like yeah
It's hard to get hungover when you're babysitting them.
He had a two-bure limit, yeah, how could be hungover?
That's what I mean.
I don't, the crippling hangover like that where you just miss.
I mean, to me,
where your internal dialogue turns out?
I felt like I missed.
That's a new definition of hungover.
I felt like I missed a part of history because essentially I did.
I mean, you did.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I'm going to phrase this question one way.
You can take it two ways.
Do you think that video did so well because you weren't there?
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's brutal.
First way you could take it is exactly how you all did.
The second one is the second half of that video is us waking you up
and it adds a good dynamic to the storyline.
When you're watching,
you go, wow, one of these guys was so hungover.
They woke him up with a fire extinguisher at three in the afternoon.
Pretty funny.
That's true.
You never know.
Both ways.
It is funny, though, when you watch that back is it opens up with us trying to wake up
Mike up.
That's what I mean.
That's viral video.
Our most viral video is us completely.
That is not how, like,
like you're supposed to do YouTube and open up a video.
And we,
and I mean,
it's just kind of proof.
It really doesn't matter.
You can do whatever you want.
But,
uh,
every time I watch that back,
I'm always laughing like,
damn,
that's how we started it.
One, Mike slept through this and,
too,
this is how you opened it up.
See what I mean?
It could be option too.
You never know.
It could have started out with us trying to push,
start a shifter cart.
Somebody just reposted,
like they just cut bits from that video and just posted on,
on Instagram.
And there was one the other day that had like one,
1.5 million likes on it.
And it was just like a cut from our video.
Evan's got like what?
How many million now on your crash video?
60.
Crazy.
Between the last two ice video.
Dude, between that video and then the smooth operator ice video,
crazy.
Evan's had a hundred mil week.
Yeah.
We're about to hit a million.
So if you haven't followed us on Instagram, I mean, please do so.
We just really want to hit a million.
We've been grinding towards it slowly, but surely.
And those last couple clips of Evan on the ice, I mean, like, seriously, we went up like almost 100K in the last month, though.
Well, at least Evan's mutinous.
At least he could still ride a dirt bike.
Yeah.
Yeah, don't need to talk.
Fuck.
Don't even try.
You haven't talked to so long.
He forgot how.
Starts talking backwards.
Oh, fuck.
Close us out, Ev.
Do you have any people you want to, like, shout out?
Like, inspirations.
Inspirations in my life.
Yeah.
Like, I see this one guy.
He's doing, like, all the same stuff as you.
I can't tell if you did it first or if he did it after you.
With a shout-out.
Dude, it was so-
To your inspiration.
He's so confused right now.
You can't even do it.
Dude, are you all right?
You go on a diet?
You show up.
You don't know how to talk.
He hasn't been drinking today.
He doesn't know how to function.
That is a big problem.
I haven't been drunk in two days.
He's got me all fucked up.
Good for you.
My circuit board short note.
This is concerning.
I still like you, though.
Yeah, it's all right.
What?
I need to get off here.
Oh, man.
I'm not sure if you ever got on.
All right, what's up?
We still do it.
this? I don't know, man.
I don't know. It reminds me of Bendu
when you were like, what are we doing?
As we're very clearly doing something
in Vegas. We're like walking to the game and go,
what are we doing right now? Dude, I was lost
without Ken, being our travel
advisor. Ken,
your service is greatly appreciated.
I don't know how many times I explained to you guys.
You have to go to Mandalay Bay and then you
can walk across the highway.
I explained that probably six times in the span
of 45 minutes. The problem was
he wasn't listening. He wasn't listening.
Exactly. Also the problem was
is we had to walk three and a half miles
there, so we had to be very, very sure
that is exactly what we needed to do.
I said get an Uber to as close to
X caliber as possible. We tried.
Those fuckers wouldn't pick us up. You do you realize
there are taxis out in front of the
hotel, right? The line was miles
long. So we couldn't do it without you, Kenny.
Well, on that note,
Evan, thank you for signing
us off or whatever that was.
Hey.
And if you guys are watching and you'd like to subscribe, hit subscribe, and we'll see you in the next one.
Peace.
Peace. Thanks for hanging with us.
