For a limited time at McDonald's, enjoy the tasty breakfast trio.
Your choice of chicken or sausage McMuffin or McGrittles with a hash brown and a small iced coffee for five bucks plus tax.
Available until 11 a.m. at participating McDonald's restaurants.
Price excludes flavored iced coffee and delivery.
I want to start this out by asking you a question, Ryan.
Okay.
How is Hummer ownership?
Honestly, dude.
Sometime good, sometime maybe it.
It was good up until this week.
I would say, and things have really gone sideways in the last like nine days.
You've owned it for a week and a half, roughly.
Well, it all started going bad when the roads became icy.
You would think a Hummer would be really good.
And it is good in the snow.
It is just not good on the snowy roads.
That would be a problem.
Yes.
Yeah, I'm just slipping in a slide.
Being that you bought it as a winter vehicle.
A winter beater.
Yeah.
So I don't really know it doesn't accelerate well or stop.
or turn well whenever the road isn't perfectly dry asphalt, which is an issue.
I can see where that'd be a problem.
And probably the most embarrassing thing is whenever I go out to it in the morning and it's
been really cold, all of the air leaks out of the rear air suspension.
And it is full-blown, squatted Hummer.
And it is just riding on the bump stops.
And I drive home or drive to the shop to work like a trucker, just bouncing along.
Dude, every morning I pull into the driveway and I see that.
thing sitting there squat it out the nose a good foot above the rear end i just can't help but
laugh picturing you driving that thing around it's a weird situation because uh hummers are like
supposed to be this baller thing and then when it gets to be a clapped out hummer it's like the
reverse reaction i hate i hate to say it but yeah you know so my question is ryan we talked
about this, I don't know, even a month or two back, how you were proposing to me buying a cheap
car is more worth it than spending the extra money and getting something new? Do you regret your
decision yet? Because, you know, you buy something new, you don't have problems like this.
Like, you roll around in style, it's comfortable, it works every time. It, it, I mean, yeah,
it's going to lose a little bit of money, but then you buy a, like a blown out Hummer and you end up
having no brakes, riding around on air suspension, hating every second of it,
and spending money on parts and time fixing it.
And not driving it 50% of the time because it's been broken.
So, no, I'm just curious, though, if you're, like, still feeling strong about it.
This morning when I was driving to work and it was freezing cold in there
and everything was fogged up and I had no suspension, I was like, I do, I do regret this.
I do not regret many decisions in my life, but I do regret nine months ago selling my TRX.
I miss that thing, dude.
So what's a laundry thing of the Hummer?
She actually hasn't rode in it, which maybe says enough.
Wow.
She just does everything to avoid it or what?
No, no.
It's just normally like if we go somewhere, we just take her car or the last couple
times I just haven't had to drive it.
Has she shown any interest?
Cars are just means of transportation to her.
You know, it's not like the same thing.
And also to go back on the thing of where you're like, oh, you spent all this time working
on it.
I have enjoyed being able to like put my tuck.
on the things. Yes, it may have been painting the rust. Maybe it was fixing the
brakes. Fixing the rust underneath, putting new brakes in it. I didn't really love that.
The wheels now are coming, which is great. Put in some new headlights, got to mess with the dash.
And it's all cheap things. For the same price is the paint that you will be putting on your
Raptor that will eventually be showcased. I have done all of these things to my Hummer.
And it like, it doesn't really bother me. I, I just good. Will definitely.
enjoy driving a nicer vehicle when I get it but right now it doesn't the scales haven't turned
too bad for me fair enough okay that that kind of answers the question because I was going to say
we gave you that out last week it's not even on the video but we're like let's jump this bitch
let's jump it and we were worried it was going to like destroy it and we said if it destroys it
we'll give you 10k get your money back and you're like no no I don't want to do that and literally
the next day, if not the same day, all your problems came up and Vass put it in the
ditch. Well, all my problems came up when I let Vass and Evan borrow it. It came back
with a destroyed windshield. The brakes were gone and then now the air suspension has been leaking
out every time I drive it. Vass put in the dish two times in one trip. And I mean, now after
driving it, I can see how. Beat the hell out of it. Yeah, I don't really know what happened in that
trip to far going back. But I was like, I was like, would they have done this if it was my
ERX with the windshield wiper phone off.
They went, fuck it, dude.
Let's just wreck the windshield.
I truly wondered that.
I don't think any of that would have happened with a new truck.
He actually said fuck it with wrecked right.
No, but you guys did let it get wrecked.
So that was the issue.
So this is my last thing that I'll even say on this.
Are you sure that it's not making you mad because you've kind of been a little grumpy
this week?
No, it's actually good because it gives me something to hate other than things.
you guys do you know it's like an out i can like hate on something else oh we've all been grumpy
buy a shitty car to work on so you can take your hate out on that hit out on that dude also
we've all just been on edge this week we all you know it's just like one person gets a little
more snippy and then we all get more and more snippy at each other and then it raises the bar of
snippiness you know and i i think it would be unfair to count all five
of the other of us in this room out of why we've or I have been more upset this week.
I feel like everybody has.
It does seem like that hummer.
It really accelerates it, though.
Really?
I feel like I haven't been upset at all this week.
Ben's been more snippy.
Mike has been more sarcastic.
Evan's been positive since I yelled at him last week.
But Evan got like to first.
If you guys go way back in, you know, the Seaboy universe, I have been known to be
what some may call
Snippy
I'd say Evan had it coming to him
A psycho
They call me a psycho
And I think
Yeah get Evan on here
Who wants to step out
We're working on an Evan Mike
I was thinking about having them
You know like how NFL sportscasters
Have like a headset
It could just be Ev sitting over there
Oh I like that
All right can I tell like my side before
Ryan gave you
Absolutely
Oh yeah yeah yeah
All right
So I could see you know
I'm on his side
We're like the past week
with the R6 and the Banshee build going not ideal.
And I had a less than positive attitude through that.
So I will agree that could have been some building.
It was a little, it was, that was like the tipping point, but it was like a buildup to that.
Correct.
Yeah.
It was like a built, like you just kept getting a little bit more and more negative.
And I've said this on a couple podcasts ago, but the odds are already stacked against us in
like every single thing we do.
So we don't need one more person in there telling us.
us what we can't do or like what isn't possible and you just we're doing a little bit more and
more of that where we'd say something you'd say it's not possible and then you'd throw your hands up
now what are you going to now i'm just okay a back story so the instance where i was being negative
was where we didn't have uh the proper tool to put the master link on the r6 so we were vass was
just going to bash it with a hammer and then i said well that would be great to be doing a
wheelie at 60 and have that chain lock up and Ryan flew off the handle okay I do I do feel bad I even
said it to see yeah he did he did I said I I told you off on the wrong thing I should have just
waited another five minutes for you to be negative on something else yeah something better yeah
it was it was a slightly the wrong instance or the wrong instance but no I mean uh yeah I mean that was
I mean that's pretty much it I think I mean so that what what do you say I actually I was me and
CJ, we're gone for that.
I was there.
Everything we just talked about, really.
You just said you can't, can't be complaining about it.
And we're saying it's not going to work or we're not going to get it done because we're
going, we have to figure out a way to get it done.
But it's like you don't really have an option.
It's like you got to make work.
So you make work, you know.
But you guys explained it right there so good talking.
Okay, so we all have, you didn't, Ryan didn't have the same.
I gave him like the dad tone.
Like I was upset
But like you guys have your way of communicating
And it was for like two weeks
Making fun of Evan go
Oh Evan we're gonna throw your hands up again
It wasn't getting through
You know it wasn't changing anything
And then so my negative way
Of communicating to Evan
Was probably more efficient
But probably a little more degrading
And a little more mean
And what some would call being a psycho
Sometimes you didn't take it like personal
No I felt bad
Evan and I were quiet for a while
And I was like, no, dude, you don't understand.
Like, this is a right of passion passage.
It, like, it's happened to every single friend here.
And if I haven't freaked out at you, you are not one of my best friends.
We must be really good friends.
Since I showed up on that Sunday, which is like two weeks ago, Ryan kind of had that look in his eye.
And I knew it was coming.
He didn't know how long.
Like, I knew the fuse was already lit.
I wasn't going to be able to put it out.
You're right.
You were just the one who was there when it ran out.
But no, I agree.
I've been negative.
Sometimes you guys take me being totally negative
Is like I'm trying to point out something that could result in like a failure further down the line
So do we really want to cross that?
Get too far into it and then go oh that was a bad idea
But I completely understand
Yeah shit happens it's a tough dynamic Ronnie we're around each other
I don't know 80 90 hours a week
Dude seriously and it's all fun in games until you throw away somebody's hot
dog cooker and then friendship goes out the window it's time to brawl like yeah but you cross
the line that's not cool and like the gloves are off yeah but i wasn't actually that heated about
the hot dog maker going away you just felt a little attacked that doesn't happen to you guys
backstory i threw away this moldy was not moldy it was dusty covered greasy it was
five year old like disgusting five years old fake news it was two years old all right yeah
Two years old, hot dog cooker that we got for free.
Zero money spent on it.
It got used maybe once a month, maybe once a month,
because I threw it away like a month and a half ago
and they just noticed it the other day.
It's also fake news.
And we have like a hundred different cookers on our little kitchen table.
Like literally a cooker for every single thing that you can imagine.
Like novelty cookers, I will agree.
Yeah.
And so I just looked at CJ and I go, hey, should we throw this away?
We can get another one if they're upset about it.
but like let's throw this away.
I said ask Micah.
So I go and ask Micah.
He's our resident,
Glizzy Goblin.
So I go up to Mike and I go, hey, Mike,
figuring that he'd be the most upset about it getting thrown.
Can I throw this away?
And he goes, yeah, I don't care.
Something along those lines.
I think that's because,
so Mike just said it was very passive aggressive.
I think that's because he learned,
you could literally walk up and be like,
hey, Mike, here's your first born child.
You don't need this anymore, right?
And then he'd just probably be out of,
to be like fuck yeah i guess i'll have to get another one because like there's no arguing with you
too don't don't bring me us to into it because it was mainly bad he the only i chimed in when you
guys were arguing was because i was like jesus he had a point he had a point with how many machines
there were i figured if he actually would have cared he probably would have said it put up a little
bit of a stink and it went very easy so i was like okay i'm going to do this and then a month
and a half later somebody went to go make a hot dog which i honestly i might have saved you
some kind of like food poisoning i agree it was bad it should not be getting used and we got it for free
we can get another one i think that you guys came a pretty aggressive at me for okaying it and then
coming back at me for throwing it away you know the tensions are you were there right and that's why
That's why after that we go, man, Ryan's really upset about this Hummer, isn't he?
Because it was just like one Hummer problem after another.
And then I threw that away or you found out I threw that away.
And it was just like it exploded after that.
I was hangary, dude.
I needed some food.
But I think a little bit of it was, I have been far more upset about other real things
probably in the last two weeks than that.
But it was funny because you got so razzed and you were just felt.
so attacked by throwing away this hot dog maker.
Well, because you, Ken, and Micah, we're all attacking.
Whoa, half the group.
Okay, so my problem was I went to the C store, bought some hot dogs.
It was like, yes, I'm going to make some hot dogs for lunch.
And then I find out the glizzy maker's gone.
Which is growth for him, you know?
We try to do a contest.
You won't even eat them.
This is true.
I was very, like, upset in the moment, but I, I do not care.
I knew it.
You guys were upset.
I'm sorry. Okay, all right.
It did 3 o'clock. I hadn't eaten anything all day.
It did lessen the pain when I figured out that you can cook hot dogs in the air fryer and they're better.
That's the other thing.
We got literally a novelty cooker like one after another.
We guys just pop up a photo of what our kitchen table looks like.
It's a very limited space.
Keep that in mind.
So here's our problem.
We have all these little cookers,
which is not an absurd amount for a normal kitchen.
We just have nowhere to store them other than on the counter.
and they all get like super dirty and no one really cleans them and I mean I was on
Ben's side it was valid and throwing it out I didn't think Mike would approve it though that so
when he approved it I was like wow I was surprised hey let's not forget about Mike getting heated
when Ryan ate his brats that Mike oh that was the best part me dude I was thinking about that
I was like dude that was a dick move like wins them at a meat raffle and they were so
good. They were Mike's hot dogs and Ryan just ate all of them. Well, I had two. I ate one.
But that was, that was like another, like in the heat, in the moment. Like, I was so pissed, but now it's just funny.
Ryan ate two, I got zero. Well, I was pissed. You guys aside, that's when you, when you fell apart,
because your guys' group was all turning against each other. It was like, you all had everyone against
Ben and then you, within your group. And there's another apart. Oh, bad. All right. Well, I'm glad we got that
beef squash.
beef is squashed. We're all fine now. It'll be good. All we need to do is go on vacation with each
other, you know? Right. That should settle things. We should just get wicked drunk together
somewhere else other than here. We'll be good. I think we have a blast. No, we are, dude.
It's going to be so good. I have something I've been wanting to talk about while we have Evan
and now Ken on. A good friend of mine, he is a very smart man. He could have worked for NASA.
They asked him to work from, but he's a humble man and he likes to stick around his roots.
So he works around here.
He likes to smoke cigarettes.
And I asked him, I said, so why don't, what do you think about vaping?
Why won't you vape?
He's like, no way, no way.
You got, you've heard the conspiracy behind that, haven't you?
And I was like, what?
No, what do you mean?
Like, just pussies do it or what?
You know, I got thinking like that's what he was going to say.
And he goes, no, no.
The whole reason vapes have been enacted.
Ken, are you listening?
I need to get this through to you.
Oh, no, I don't pay attention when you're actively trolling me.
what this is a true story how am i trolling this is what it's the part two of this
what okay so anyways he told me that vapes are basically they've been you know placed and planted
in society to you know get people addicted to them obviously with their dangerous and very toxic
chemicals, but more so get them hooked on sucking on that little metal circle thing
because, as you all know, AI is becoming more and more a part of society.
There is worries that AI will eventually take over, and Elon Musk himself has said
one day, AI, like robots are going to take over and they're going to turn on us.
Vapes have been planted for those to get on them because,
when the robots take over
the vape smokers are going to be sex slaves
to the robots
and just give them
BJs
that's what they're for
I'd heard the suck in robot
short sucking robot dick
vaps are just robot dicks
yeah so these two
say robot dick all week I didn't know that was why
that's why that's why
these two have been training for the future
the only way to consume
your nicotine bro I'm sure
you guys are looking forward to it i don't know and that's fine if you are looking forward to the
future what do you even say to something like that i don't know i'm happy about it i don't fucking
know dude it was kind of close ended i hear it's more of dude more robo penis for you and robot then i
don't have to do it i don't know man i was just saying like when he told me that i told you guys
and you guys kept doing it it's been two weeks now or whatever are you worried about the future
excited for the future yeah that's that's probably a better question
Dude
So ridiculous
Ken how do you feel about it
No comment
Ken you can't
We're on a pod cast
You have to comment
Why just survive back to school
When you can thrive
By creating a space that does it all for you
No matter the size
Whether you're taking over your parents' basement
Or moving to campus
IKEA has hundreds of design ideas
and affordable options to complement any budget.
After all, you're in your small space era.
It's time to own it. Shop now at IKEA.ca.
Robot dicks.
So from now on, for those of you kids at home,
if you have not started vaping, don't start,
unless you want to start sucking robot dick in the future.
And if you are vaping and you don't want to be sucking robot dick,
You might want to stop.
But if you're, you know, I don't know what these,
these guys don't apparently have any problem with it.
You guys know the ads that they used to play for like,
quit smoking cigarettes.
I should be the guy.
They just used that clip right there.
Robot dick.
Don't vape kids.
It's bad for you.
They play it in like high schools.
Yeah, smoke cigarettes like a real man.
Yeah.
So that was basically,
I'm kidding.
The gist of it is Slick was then saying,
yeah,
I don't want to.
suck robot dick.
So I'm going to just continue to smoke cigarettes like a real man.
And he did say that.
And then I won't have that problem.
Right.
Ken, if that is the case and the only way to consume nicotine is through sucking robot
dick, will you?
I'm just going to stop you there.
No.
I see,
once again,
you are full blown addicted to that thing.
Once again, you're infatuated with dicks.
I'm not the,
How many podcasts in a row?
How many podcasts in a row have you talked about dicks?
I don't know.
Are we on 59?
There's at least in 60 of them.
Hey,
if you guys are trying to,
you know,
looking forward to the future,
let's just say,
so be it.
I'm happy for you.
As long as you're happy.
I just want to warn you of the potential position
you're putting yourselves in.
All right.
Well,
you can sleep well tonight.
Rest assured that I will not be sucking any robot dick in the future,
CJ.
You're quitting?
No,
I'm going to keep vaping every.
fucking day, but I'm not going to suck any
robot. You're not going to have a choice, man. They're going to take
over. AI robots are going to take over
eventually. They're becoming smarter than us.
Well, then I'll quit then. Especially you and me. I'll quit
that. I don't know if it works that way, man.
They'll have you. They're going to be walking around
with those little puff sticks as their wieners.
They don't wear clothes, and you're going to break
down to your knees.
I've seen you. You see it sitting there in the couple of there?
I'm just
telling you, man. How do I defend myself against sucking
Dix or robot dicks
Any Dix? That's what I'm saying. The only way to protect
yourself is to quit vaping now.
I'll think about it.
I'm just doing it because I'm a good friend, man.
I appreciate it, bud.
Ken, I want you to consider too. I know you're closed off
to it. But please consider.
It's tough because it looks like he's been ignoring us, but our
voices are just pumped right into his ears right now.
So there's no way he can.
There is a mute button, you know.
You don't have us muted. Otherwise, you wouldn't have no.
He just
He made it
He made it
Ben at least
I love how he picked you
I don't think
you said a word
during that
that whole
conversation
Unbelievable
I don't know
I get
I get I get
known now
as the
penis guy
Ken
is that why
you threw away
the hot dog
cooker
it made you
uncomfortable
maybe
subconsciously
they just like
that
a phallic
shaped object
makes you
uncomfortable
now
no it
does not
make me
uncomfortable
therefore
why we are
talking
about it
on the podcast
We should write a song about robot dicks
I think we have a music video
And you two star on it
We'll get real robots
What's a fake robot
I mean like real functioning robots
With functioning robo dicks
Yep
Yeah I had dinner with my mom last night
And she did mention a few things
That I've been saying
And endorsing
And how
Apparently my aunt's
and uncles listen to this podcast, too.
And they found out that you're Blue Chew's biggest ambassador.
Is that what she said?
Yeah.
She also said,
I can't say I got a Hummer because apparently.
Jesus.
What's so many names?
What's she say about your odds and uncles?
Who said that they also listen.
Oh,
so they haven't said anything about it.
But you know that.
I've seen them, but it's coming at Christmas.
They all just get you blue chew.
You know, it sounds like you're just flying through this.
So here you go.
So why can't you say you got a Hummer?
Urban Dictionary.
Even better than a blowjob, it's when the person actually hums slash vibrates their lips
while their mouth is around your cock.
That's a blow job.
Or one of the least fuel efficient vehicles on Earth.
Also true.
They must be so proud.
Man, where do we go from here?
Anywhere up is positive.
So you guys know how Argentina won the Soccer World Cup?
Because you told me.
One, have you guys seen the streets of Argentina?
So cool.
After they won?
Dude, insane.
And they let them climb flag poles there.
Street lights.
Here they grease the poles.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
In like big cities like Philly and stuff like that,
I think is one city that.
It's known for burning the city down when they win.
Yeah, it's crazy.
Pop up a video just like the streets.
But after Argentina won the World Cup,
everyone's obviously down on the field.
And do you guys know the guy, Salt Bay?
You remember Salt Bay?
He's like the guy that went viral for...
He was famous for like three minutes in 2015.
I guess being famous for three minutes in 2015
warrants you to get onto the field after like the biggest.
sports event in history, right?
No idea how.
No idea how.
But anyway, this guy gets down there and is just, like, reeking havoc,
just being just a piece of shit.
Was he drunk?
Watch him trying to get Messy's attention.
This is him right here.
Oh, he's in a suit.
Look at him.
He's grabbing him.
Oh, my gosh.
He's grabbing on his arm.
He's like trying to walk away.
What the fuck?
He's holding the trophy, right?
Dude, you got to give that guy.
He's not quite a look.
Watch.
This is him.
He took it right out of the thing.
He's taking pictures with the team.
Look at this
What do
Get the hell out of it
All right
So this is him after he finally got his attention
So he like finally gets it
You can tell Messi's just like
Who is this guy?
Why did he just spend in
I couldn't find the clip again
But I watched a clip of him
Trying to grab him for like 30 seconds
And he like just kept walking away
He's like grabbing his arm
He's trying to celebrate with his team
And this is after
And he's grabbing it
From a baby
He's grabbing it from the baby
you can tell like the players just like that player's like not letting go yeah
what the fuck is it's so awkward you ready you ready you ready
bro wow i don't know salt page just memed himself he did he was already a meme though
it's almost like this is his personality just continuing to be an idiot so then i was looking
up what is salt bay doing right now and apparently he has uh his own restaurant or maybe
Maybe a couple of restaurants.
Look at some of these bills from his restaurant.
$37,000.
Wow.
It's euros, isn't it?
Yeah, about the same now.
Pounds.
Pounds.
After bragging about a customer's $140,000 bill at his Abu Dhabi restaurant, $140,000.
So he's making a lot of money, obviously.
I guess so.
Yeah, I don't know.
Maybe $30,000 tip.
Wow.
Crapes.
Why, though?
Because he flicks salt.
off of the his elbow yeah I don't want your salt touching your dirty elbow my salt touching your dirty
elbow I wonder I wonder like after his little World Cup incident how that's going to affect
business after everyone sees him just acting a fool out there but anyway that's what salt pays up to
apparently he did something right to be charging those prices speaking of the World Cup look up
the billboard of messy first of all we've got to appreciate how cool this is look it's like
When I watched that for the first time,
I thought, finally,
we're finally getting the advertisements
that a true dystopian future would have.
Like you see a bunch of buildings covered in that,
you're like, yes, it is finally the future.
Yep.
Robots are coming.
Robots are coming, guys.
You look behind the dirty alley there,
and there's a robot.
And some sucker of a human getting this fix.
Yeah, well, it was pretty cool.
I'm not a big soccer guy,
but I did end up watching that for a while.
I mean, it's being regarded as, like, one of the best World Cup's best soccer games ever, but if you like soccer, good for you.
I guess it had like a billion current viewers.
And like the Super Bowl has like 120 million.
Whoa.
Yeah, I mean, it's by far the most.
I mean, it's all over the world.
I think he's the most followed person.
Messy?
He's not, but he just had his World Cup photo is like the most liked photo on Instagram history.
Damn.
More than Bellaport somehow.
Huh?
That was the other.
that's the second most liked on a like all of social media I believe it was her TikTok oh really
yeah that was the most watched TikTok ever the Instagram photo that was holding the record was the egg
it was like the most liked photo but then people went and started disliking or like unliking the egg
so then messies could pass it yeah what's the egg like literally just an egg it's literally just
an egg I'll pull it up it's sick though yeah check this out actually you're gonna love this
I'm surprised you haven't liked it yet I have no idea what
you're talking about. Are you kidding me? Get your Instagram out after this and you're going to have to
like it. What if I don't like it? World record eggs. There's no way. Egg gang. Almost five million
followers. Just one photo of an egg. You and your girlfriend both like that egg. Yeah, it's cool, man.
It's, yeah. You're like getting, you're like a part of a community. It's a nice egg. What's the
story behind the egg? Look at it. I am so confused. All right, Messi's, Messi's photo.
70 million likes. Wow. That's crazy. Our R-R-6
Jump has like over half a million likes.
Does it really?
What is that?
Which is a crazy amount of likes.
Yes.
Wow.
Not anything compared to messy, but some Kim K numbers.
The video of us jumping, the R6 has 19 million views on Instagram, 704,000 likes.
Dude, if we hit a million likes on that, I'm going to black out.
Dude, that is so cool.
That's the, okay.
And then the one R6 off-road video that we posted a couple of months.
months ago, that has 28.5 million views and 763,000 followers, erd likes.
Wow.
Let's pour some out for the R6.
Seriously, dude.
RIP.
I can't believe we destroyed that thing, but glad we did.
I'm not glad we did.
When we jumped it, we were trying to jump it into the tree.
Completely missed it, but we're trying to hit the tree and then hoping that it either
hit the tree and exploded or hit the tree and got stuck in.
it and then we're like if it gets stuck in the tree we're going to leave it forever and it's
going to be like a piece of history the trees can grow around it yeah i don't like this new one
as much we can send that in a tree for sure heaven doesn't have the special connection to it
so i really love filming podcast when we just have like really good days a lot happened today
bangor day at the shop like woke up the shift cart was on the ground started out positive
started out negative now that you say that hung the shifter cart not so well apparently
I'm not going to blame it on you and Evan.
Honestly, if you guys haven't seen that,
we hung the shifter card on the wall.
Well, you absolutely have part in it,
and I'm just not going to give you shit for it.
Who would have thought that one hook hanging into,
I guess not a stud wasn't enough to hold a 200-pound shifter card on the wall?
So got the shifter cart hung back up,
which was,
that's where things started going positive.
You know,
had a couple good meetings today.
We won't talk about that,
but CJ rolls in later.
Tint brings over a 8.
for the shop. That's money. Talk a little bit about that.
Well, we have a, well, some of the people in the shop, I'm not going to say names,
have, you know, a gambling problem. And we're not going to say gambling, a problem,
but they, uh, have a lot of fun betting money. And we have people that come over that
want to bet money to. And there's oftentimes bets placed, the bet gets done and, oh,
I don't have any cash. Oh, you know, get your back.
whenever or I'll get you next time I see you you never see that money you know so now it's like
oh I don't got any cash oh when they say they'll venmo you after but then they forget and you kind of
feel like a dick like hey you're gonna hit me with that five bucks you know sometimes people do that
and you're kind of like what was the point of betting because I was going to pay him now it's like
oh you don't have any cash go to the ATM and yes I charge a steep fee five dollar fee that's
well that's what you get for showing up here with no money thinking you're going to
gamble that yeah you're going to have to pay for your uh not not thinking my favorite part is
a lot of times people don't show up here thinking they're going to gamble but it ends up happening
that's okay too for me CJ just gets people to gamble and oh you don't have money because
you didn't plan on gambling great go to the ATM that i also charge five bucks i also happen
to own it's a great it's a little side hustle well yeah i was going to call it a scheme it's
not a scheme at all i mean it's a business total legit just a business
I'm going to get more of them, put them on each bay of this shop.
So that way they're just all,
that we have cash readily available for all types of bets.
At that point,
we should put one outside for the public.
Well,
I have that plan.
I'm going to get something bricked in,
you know,
just like a melt,
like a brick mall.
Yeah,
exactly.
Yeah.
I know,
I know,
I know how we're going to finish Ryan's Hummer off.
We're running through and steal my ATM.
We're running C.J's ATM over.
I only keep fives in there.
For the greater good.
So,
I mean,
there's like a thousand.
and bucks in the thing total.
So, like, realistically breaking my ATM, me pressing charges, not worth it.
So then...
Oh, they'll be catch us.
So then when Tint brings over the ATM for CJ, he also brought over a gift from himself
and Mark, which was an electronic dartboard, not no joke dartboard, a legitimate
electronic dartboard, like, bar style, big one, like a screen.
Which we've been wanting for a long time, so thank you for that.
It was like a $2,000 dartboard.
It was really nice.
Oh, seriously?
At the end of the day, it's so funny because it's truly just another game to bet money on.
Yeah, exactly.
So it was perfect that I have my ATM there now.
Wow, it sounds kind of like a little bit D-Gen when you list them on.
I mean, we're playing dice.
We're betting on pool.
We're betting on the pinball machine.
We're going to be betting on darts.
The sports games, fights.
Yeah.
There's often times where people don't have money.
It's really also funny because I'm like so excited for just everything,
the dartboard especially like I'm like just what I need to spend more time at the shop spending
money somehow instead of making it here yeah that usually like uh work is the house place to make money
and not lose it so is the house gonna be starting a line of credit program no you go to the ATM
what do you mean the house the line of credit what do you mean the line of credit what do you
go to the a what if I start a line of credit and I run you out of business we get money from you
yeah it's a line of credit and there is deep interest ATM's easier sorry
I like the idea though
Because you have a bad night
Oh yeah
You bet the farm
Lost the farm
Start betting the cattle
Hoping to win the farm back
You know
And then before I know
You're left no farm
No cattle no wife
Did you win dad?
No I lost the house
In the perfect world
You know
Things go well enough for me
I run CJ out of business
I buy the ATM
And then I lower the feet
And then everyone wins
That would be one way to look at it
In another way
Maybe there's a competing business
that comes in that loaned CJ money
and we work harmoniously together
and grow our empire.
I think Ryan needs to start charging money
to play a game on his pinball machine.
I think he should too.
I just ordered a change machine.
Then you can take money out of C.J's ATM.
You put it in the change machine.
Well, then what are you going to do
with all this extra change?
Well, you better play some more stuff.
I am going to put a vending machine.
Stock it with little debbies,
you know, chips,
granola bars.
You know, maybe you get hungry around here.
I'm sold.
Yeah.
I'm sold.
But wait, there's more.
Okay.
Then you put in a soda pot machine.
And then you can, it's full service in here.
You get games, you get entertainment, you get food, and you get drink.
You know what I love about everything that you guys have said?
You guys are going to be your own best customers.
You guys are really going to keep your business alive.
It's called being your own boss, dude.
It's going to just be a revolving door.
Yeah, like think of the amount.
The amount of money, you know, we keep saying, like, when we bring friends around, because
they are, they're going to use it.
Ain't know what friends coming over.
We don't have any.
We're going to start hosting.
Yeah.
Hosting parties.
If we all brought just a couple buddies at the end of the days.
CJ's going to be a promoter.
Groups of people.
And I'm going to tell them, just go to the ATM, get a little cash out first before you
even, you know.
I'm definitely going to, like, start using it.
Like, when we go on a trip and I don't make it to the bank beforehand, I'm like,
ah, I don't have any cash.
Like, if I don't have any cash, I'm going to hit up CJ's ATM.
You're going to be running around with $500 and $5 bills in your pocket.
Also, he filled it with fives, which is extremely inconvenient.
Well, you could only put one bill in for some reason.
And it makes sense.
And I was like, well, fives is probably better than $20 because like sometimes people come over.
They don't have any money to begin with.
They're probably not trying to bet $20 at a time.
So let's do five.
That's a good, happy medium.
So do you guys think that our shop is turning into more of an arcade or more of a casino?
I think it's just more of a fun haven
I feel like they go, yeah
It's, you know, casino it has a bad
It's our take on a casino
But yeah, I don't want to use that word
It's just, yeah, arcades are for nerds
I think it's just something cool
You know, it's just a fun haven
Uh, me and CJ's grandpa
Has actually been telling us for a while
That he has a old blackjack table
That he's going to give to us too
So that's kind of going to solidify the casino side
Sort of moving stuff out that we actually use
My best friend from high school, his mom
used to deal at a casino so she could come down and deal for us and then when she's not being a
blackjack dealer maybe she could be the bartender yeah that's all we need now is a bartender
that shows up 5 o'clock works till 2 a.m yep we pull up it'd be just like you know going out
except you're still here and you're not spending as much yeah if not more well depends you know
I might be hiring the bartender and and be selling the booze but
Jake gets a liquor license.
Still is his best on company.
And then, you know, after all the long nights here drinking and stuff, you go,
oh, man, I really need a place to stay.
Or ride home.
Or ride home.
I got both of those.
You know, yep.
You start charging for the room upstairs.
Then I have my little brother driving everyone home.
Yeah, it's perfect.
It seems like you guys are just explaining like almost like a speakeasy type environment.
I mean, you can call whatever you want that.
Yeah, I think the only thing we're missing now is like some brochures for the Fun Haven
because now it's just this full-blown thing.
You just see me out somewhere like pass them out.
Hey, Funhaven, come on.
Swing by, a couple nights, one night, whatever you want.
First beer on us.
First bet's free.
First bet's free.
Well, we're running isn't a scam.
But did you guys see that Logan Paul is in some hot water?
I didn't actually like a scam type thing.
Well, yeah.
So back, let's rewind eight months ago, when cryptocurrency was making money.
When cryptocurrency was up big and NFTs were the next big thing.
And a lot of people made NFTs.
We were even approached if we wanted to make an NFT.
We didn't want to do it because we were like,
I don't really want to like have our people buy it.
And then it just be worth nothing because then they just lose their money.
And that's just pretty lame.
We don't want to rip off our subscribers.
Some influencers did.
He made his own.
crypto zoo hyped it up talked all this big game and basically it was like a massive failure i don't
think it was a deliberate scam but it was a massive massive failure and like people lost like
a lot of freaking money and now he's like in trouble really and uh i don't know he's he's under hot
water it like just recently came out so i think the the the gist was you like had an elephant in a line
and it was like it was just dumb dude it was dumb
did they ever release any of them well that was the thing so like basically all they did was like
take two pictures and mash them together like Adobe photo I think Photoshop like stock or maybe even
use AI stock yeah images pretty legit they weren't they were not dude they look like shit it looked like
they spent literally like a couple like a minute on each little picture whatever that they that you
supposedly got and they were supposed to be this big return for like the people that bought these
things and like held on and
they just drove straight to the ground
at the end of the day like an NFT can
look like shit people pay like millions
of dollars for you know at the end
of the day a monkey but they were supposed to be stuff
that came with it yeah and it just shot straight to the ground
but anyways while I was watching this video
it's by coffee Zilla he's explaining
all this stuff you just would have to go watch
it. Can we pull it up Ken?
Pull up the first video was play it loud
I don't think we'd play it real loud
I don't think there's any need. Even their community
manager ben roth promised people community manager ben roth i literally blacked out when i saw it ben roth and
he just kept saying talking all this trash on this ben roth guy that supposedly ripped all these people
off of money i've never met another ben roth in my life there's a lot of one this dude was really
talking big about nfts and roth are you i'm sure it's just a coincidence go watch the video and if you're
if you guys you will shit your pants it's so funny
When he says Ben Ross.
So my question, Ben, do you have something to explain?
How'd you pay for that Lambo?
With the funds of the people you stole?
Look.
The money you stole from the people?
Can I take the Ken approach on this one?
With your shitty little pictures?
No comment.
Okay, well, that makes you look extremely guilty.
Yeah.
Makes you look like you want to suck some robot dick, quite frankly.
No, no, no, no.
Dude, I watched the same video, and I blacked out.
I blacked out when that part hit.
And I literally, I literally was driving, listening to it.
I pull over and go, I had to have heard that wrong.
I've never met another Ben, Roth.
I've never, I've never even, like, ran across another.
Another Ben.
I've never met another Ben before.
Right.
Yeah, yeah.
I was very rattled, obviously.
And looking pretty guilty.
So I started getting messages.
Oh, no way.
Okay, so that was my next question.
Yeah.
I would assume if I had recently watched this video, I would look that guy up.
And, of course, you're going to be the first Ben Roth that pops up.
Totally.
Yeah, it was not a good look.
Totally.
What are people saying to you?
They were like, is this you?
Like, a couple of, like, saying, like, I've heard you, like, talk about it on the podcast.
Like, is this you, L-O-L.L.
And, like, people just, like, sending screenshots of, like, the actual copyzilla post and be like, this is fucked.
They're, like, things like that.
They're just stealing money.
Wow.
I'm like, what do I say?
You con artists.
Like, do I just comment on the video and just be like, hey, hey.
Do you say sorry?
There's ways to make money
Legitimately, Ben.
Like ATMs.
You maybe should put in your bio
like I am not the Ben Roth that scammed you
Because I feel like if it became a slightly bigger issue
It's got like people like
I could see some idiot news source
Like the New York Times or something
Literally just searching out Ben Roth
And seeing somebody in YouTube
So funny dude
Moderately
Prominent on social media
and going, this is the guy.
And it's like a picture of you and Greta.
And you're standing next to your Lamborghini.
They're like, he's, that's where my money went to.
You look mighty guilty.
It's really not a good look.
Not a good look.
I just don't know if there's literally anything I can do about it.
Dude, the video is blown up.
I think there's two videos and they have like collectively five million views,
which is a lot of views.
You know, it's funny.
Every, oh, there's also a couple comments and messages that said, man,
every investment you touch turns to
Dude especially when you're running it
Yeah I was like dude
It just doesn't look good
Everything just adds up
It was probably it could have been me
You know what's funny
It could have been somebody that watched the podcast
And they wanted to just go anonymous
And they just used my name
Because they imagine they used your picture
Then you be
And then they became the community manager
That's what he is
Well the only reason they'd use your name
is if they were trying to throw the game.
If they were trying.
Can we look this guy up?
Like, okay, I just want to see what...
When I search Ben Roth,
the only thing that pops up is your face, Ben,
standing next to your Lamborghini.
Like every other crypto con artist.
They first thing they do is...
Buy Lamborghini.
Steal the money.
Second thing they do, buy Lamborghini.
Yeah, it does that up.
Third thing they do, take pictures
and post it online about how rich they are.
Like this is...
Fourth thing? Jail.
Yeah.
This is a type of...
a guy that you have to find on like
LinkedIn.
Whenever I have to like find someone who you
cannot find on social media, you have to look
them up on LinkedIn. NFTs, I don't know.
I feel like it was definitely a wave.
Yeah, but everything's a wave.
It might come back. I wouldn't count it all yet.
But for your sake, Ben, I wouldn't
even just touch it, you know? I'd stay
away for a little bit.
Coffee Zillet really is one of those guys though. He could turn
like your Starbucks order into like a
full-blown documentary hit piece.
Like, dude, it's crazy.
together a hell of a documentary,
YouTube documentary thing
on people and does some pretty solid
digging. He does some pretty solid
journalism that seems
I mean, if it's
against you, definitely not in your
favor, but like, bro, the
lengths he goes to
is like insane. Insane
and it all seems super credible.
Granted, that's probably what,
I don't think he really puts much hip pieces
out on people. I think it's just
right. I think it's just, yeah, probably deserving
things.
Yeah, I mean, he tells it straight up.
He's a man of the people.
Yeah, like, I wouldn't necessarily trust what H3H3 has to say, which he doesn't seem
like he's popping as much anymore.
Not H3H3, drama alert, sorry.
I wouldn't trust so much what drama alert, but even H3H3 has to say.
They seem very biased and like whatever.
But I'd say coffee zealous seems, he just kind of tells it how it is.
And what is knowing?
He's like the new Idubs, which is like, Idubs is like, oh,
complete comedy, but when he did a content cop on you, you know,
like he did one on like, Hanamon Joe.
Because he would make it into a Joe, he'd be a meme.
Yep.
Like when Coppizzo does, he just basically reports everything, just kind of makes you look bad.
I wonder how he does that without getting sued or hit with, like, defamation.
I'm sure he does here in there.
That's the one thing I've always worried about defamation is, if it's true, can you say it?
I mean, look at Amber Hurd, like, made a whole trial out of just like what she was saying.
That's true.
So it's like, you do hit.
somebody with defamation, even if it is true and you're just trying to win a case,
still sucks.
Still got to go to court.
And that would suck for him.
Like every single time you piss off somebody super rich and you drag their name through
the mud, even if it is true.
Yeah.
Incredible.
And then you get hit with a lawsuit.
It's like, damn, man, is it worth it?
In the docu series, I think it's the first video, Coffee Zella calls, gets a hold of
Logan Paul's manager, Jeff.
And they hop on the phone.
and he answers and he tells him like,
hey, I'm coffee zill.
I'm doing a thing on, you know,
the Crypto Zoo, yada, yada.
I'm trying to get all the facts, whatever.
And then he asked him,
he just goes, no comment.
He's like, you have no comment?
And then basically, which looked pretty bad,
I'm not going to lie.
He was pretty jumbled up.
I'm sure he wasn't expecting a call.
And then he kind of basically said,
like, if you, you know,
we take things very seriously.
If you release bad, whatever,
bad press basically on it,
that's not true, basically kind of like indirectly threatened suing for defamation,
but I don't know if they will be able to, you know.
Right.
If you're that calculated and it's true.
I don't know.
It would definitely have to come out in court because they'll have to pull.
I don't know if he'd want to get into court, though.
If he's theoretically kind of scammed everyone out of his money.
And it's even like the same thing with FTX.
Isn't like Graham Stephan, he's a financial YouTuber and a few other.
I'm just actually a number of other, like, celebrities or Tom Brady.
Yeah, people like that who promoted it are in trouble, too, aren't they?
There's a class action lawsuit for them.
Yeah, exactly.
Against everyone involved, dude.
It seems like anyone that promoted it.
Wow.
Dude, yeah, that sucks.
So what do they get sued?
Do they have to pay money?
Do they have to pay their promotions back?
It's not done yet.
How does that work?
Who does the money go to?
They probably haven't come to an agreement, but they're in trouble, basically.
like that's crazy man it's just the whole thing like right now we're in kind of the wild west
everything's still always obviously evolving as it time goes on you go back a year or two people
were able to like basically promote this new coin that they made have everyone buy into it because
they had these followers and then they would just dump their whole portion after the price got
drove up and they'd make even more money leaving their followers with basically worthless
holding the pointless digital currencies and
And now they got in trouble for that.
They came down on them.
And, like, you know, it's just same thing now.
NFTs.
People are coming down on that.
And now it's like if you were promoting this, basically you just can't promote shit.
Well, I think it's all a gamble.
It's a gamble buying crypto.
It's a gamble buying stocks.
It's a gamble buying NFTs.
But it's also a gamble as a creator or anyone making them.
Like, we would have taken a gamble had we made an NFT.
Glad we didn't.
Yeah, we didn't talk about that.
It would be a gamble.
Yeah, there's a bunch of,
of money to be made maybe since it's a gamble but there's also a bunch of loss to be had
yeah yeah yeah i got a wonder you know what i was thinking about is full send when they had their
medicard nfti and we bought ben bought two i bought one and they were like a thousand bucks yeah well it's
literally probably worth a hundred bucks now um well anyways they were talking about all this shit
they were going to do they were going to do you know gyms and and like these clubs and all these special
things and legitimately they haven't they don't even talk about anymore they don't do anything with it
and then in our minds we're like well dude nilk is so big right now like they're always posting
like i believe in them which i i still do but now they like hardly even post i'm like bro they just
made all this money off this nfts and now we're sitting here we just basically funded their
retirement and i'm sure they already had their retirement maybe i don't know i feel like
their case is a little bit different and it just so happens that like
NFTs are all kind of shit right now
That's just very true
The economy is driven them down
Because think though
You buy an NFT or you buy something
That is basically backed by nobody
Like anonymous people
Or just like the hype of it though
I feel like that's at least kind of backed by their name
That's true but it's like
Now it's like hardly even talk about
Which obviously it's tough to talk about
When you're not doing anything with it
Hopefully it comes back
I do
I do truly believe that
NFTs well somehow come back. I do also believe they're kind of pointless, but
I wouldn't doubt if the price goes up. Really? Yeah. That was the most tone-deaf thing I think I've
ever heard. Yeah, I think they really dropped the ball on that because they fucked up and did it
eight months too late. I didn't understand it at all. Like, why did they just do it now? Is it funding his
political campaign? I doubt it. I mean, uh, 45,000 sold in around 12 hours collecting around
five million dollars which is a lot of money but Trump test nothing dude it's not like it's needed
I feel like was was it was it his campaign that did it or like it was it was it just outside trump did
it uh I won't an NFT so the thing was he like you know he's releasing like these policy things
and then they promote the NFT as like major announcement and it's like your major announcement
should be the policy not the NFT thing you're running for president what an interesting
They're expecting something kind of monumental, and he's like, NFTs.
Bro, too late.
Too late.
That's crazy, actually.
Dude, it's crazy.
The 45th president of the United States just dropped NFTs.
Aren't they of him, like, riding, like, unicorns and shit, too?
Pop up a Trump NFT.
It's pretty funny.
They're all great, I must say, but they just look like Trump put his thing in the AI generator,
and it gave him 12, like, superhero images back.
All right, speaking of making money, so about a month ago, we started seeing just clips of
our videos being uploaded to YouTube.
So just like random little bits that we'd done throughout like the last four years.
Super random, but under the name of.
Under the name of C-Boy's TV clips.
And we weren't doing it.
It was just some random kid doing it.
So we saw like the first couple pop up and we're watching them and we're like,
oh, some kid is just like uploading our clips.
and then some of them started pulling
like pretty crazy views
like 200,000 300,000 views
or literally just downloading our video
and snipping a clip out of it and uploading it
and just re-uploading it, right?
So we're watching it for a couple weeks
and he's like pretty consistent with it
he's doing one a day.
Some are popping off, some aren't doing much
and we were like, we should probably like put a stop to this
but like let's see if he keeps doing it
and how they keep going.
Because we get notified actually in YouTube.
It says, you know, you basically it's a copyright claim.
And it pops up and we could claim it if we wanted.
Yeah.
So YouTube gives us the option to either completely delete it or just demonetize it so he can't make any money off of it.
It's growing, dude.
And he's staying consistent and consistent with it.
So finally, me and CJ email the email connected to it.
And we're like, hey, this is Penn and CJ.
Let's hop on a FaceTime call and let's just have a chat.
So me and CJ hop on a FaceTime call with a 17-year-old kid named After.
Shout out, Ashton. I know he's watching this right now. He's a good kid. Good. I like him a lot. I just talked to him the other day.
So long story short, Ashton, 17 year old kid, high schooler was just cutting our videos because he knew nobody else is doing it and just re-uploading it, having just a screenshot for the thumbnail, arrow, some text. And he was making like $4,500 bucks.
That's awesome. It was monetized for 20 days. They made $4,500 in 20 days.
Oh.
And he was like, dude, I was making more money in a day than like my friends were in a week working normal jobs.
And it was taking me like 30 minutes to do it.
Right.
So me and CJ are like pretty impressed.
You know, like that's crazy.
It takes initiative to, you know, think of that idea.
Right.
But also it's very easy work in, you know, comparison to what you do.
Well, even just filming the video, editing it, whatever, making it something like because he was just sniffing it.
putting it and it would just pop off but it's a very useful thing that he's doing because he's doing
a good job at titling and taking a screen grab and making a decent thumbnail out of it and just
making an intriguing clip that makes people click yeah you know correct so we were like man we don't
really want him to stop doing it but like at the end of the day he is kind of just like stealing
our shit we have like no control over it and he's just basically profiting off of our content
like at the end of the day it's just copyright and we're not getting
anything it'd be like selling someone else's like song yep basically yep so we we just worked out
a deal with him where he's still doing it and we we told him do one video a day from the main
channel and then do one podcast clip a day yep from the podcast we're giving him a percentage of
all the earnings on the revenue he can see the revenue so he's like motivated by it like the more
he post the the better the title or thumbnail is like the more money he's going to make more
money we make and he gets to just sit in his room for 30 minutes a day and continues to do it. He says it
takes him, I think like an hour. He spends an hour a day and he gets to chill there and do, but the
thing like anybody can cut that. Most people don't have consistency or like the discipline to
continuously do it every day at the same time and and just have the discipline of it. But what he
had that I honestly couldn't find with other people that I've tried having do do stuff is he knew exactly
he's really good at making like a title and thumbnail for these clips because in a sense we have let's say you take like a minor bit from a video that we would never title and thumbnail around he's able to take that and make this thing and it says like Ben from C Boy's TV you know does this or whatever and they just pop off and he guys won a day that was like the beauty of his thumbnail and titling was he gets it that's the thing he gets it and also what you said about learning to you know there's only so many bits you could pick up.
out of our video but learning to pick the ones that
he's good he has intelligence with it he sometimes we read the title of the videos he's
posting and we're like I laugh bro it's stuff we wouldn't think of nor ever title of
video which I love yeah he's got a very outsider look yeah about and it's perfect
it's working yeah I think it's like the touch that we were missing we're like so focused on like
the inside and and like he almost is coming approaching it at like an angle that is like so
not like YouTube friendly too and it's working like so many things I'll like text
CJ about like yo should we text them like probably don't use this in the thumbnail or use
this in the title because YouTube is going to like throttle it most of the time if we were to do it
it works like it'll go like number one I just let them do it because and like that was the
the reason why we were like we don't want to put a stop to this because this kid gets it
so it's like if we could just get them to start working with us on it now everyone it's
a win-win for everyone.
He's no longer stealing content.
We're no longer getting stuff stolen from us.
We're both winning.
And the best part was you didn't have to train them in.
Like a lot of people DM me, like, they hit me up and then I'm like, okay.
And they're like, yeah, I do all this stuff.
I like editing and photos and all this.
And I'll say, send me a portfolio.
Let me have a fucking portfolio.
Like, if you don't have any examples of your work.
He probably doesn't have a portfolio either.
He could send the YouTube channel and say, I title and thumb note all these.
But it's a different type of thing.
now he does in the head but he got the job because he didn't need one he like proved it but I'm just talking about these this case I know I know what you're saying but we just pretty much just took a risk like on the kid and he just took initiative I don't think it was a risk at all yeah but he just started doing it yeah that's what he did he showed us that he proved that he could do it but it's like you got to have some kind of examples that you can do it and he had an example because he was doing it I that's why he was able to do it I think a super valuable thing for people in any space
trying to get a job, trying to get a client doing anything, is make yourself useful.
Yeah.
We get all these emails.
I can quadruple your revenue.
I can do all these things.
Prove it.
A little bit of, yeah, like proof or making yourself useful or having an example of things
you've done.
And, you know, maybe you're trying to like, you know, mow lawns or something like that.
If you want to come and you want to be like, hey, I want to mow your lawn, come with the mower
or come with pictures.
like hey look at the nice lines I did at my lawn at home and then that way someone can look at that
and go I like the way that you did that I'm not totally banking on someone young and maybe
inexperienced but I'm now I'm able to see the proof in the pudding that's a really good point
I think that's why he got the job if he had emailed us and said he's going I want to make
clips for you guys I can come up with good thumbnails I can come with good titles I know what to
do would have been like sweet delete yeah he'd have been he proved it like with the
That's a perfect example.
If you want to start a lawn mower business,
lawn mowing business,
show up,
say,
hey, sir,
I'm running a lawn mowing business,
yada,
yada.
I see that you haven't mowed your lawn
in a couple weeks.
Maybe you don't have time.
Maybe you're old.
Maybe it's too hard for you.
I actually want to,
I just want to do your first lawn for free
and prove to you.
I just want to show you what I can do.
And after that,
if you don't like it,
whatever,
it's all good.
Yeah.
I'll do the front lawn for free.
Yeah.
You can pay me for the back,
you know,
or even just do the whole thing.
Yeah.
I guess it depends how big it is, but I'm just saying, like, that's how you get jobs.
Like, it's not really about like, oh, like, I know how to do this or I know how to do that.
Like, show it.
You got to do the walk before you do the talking, in my opinion.
Like, to your point of how many, we get a lot of those.
And we talk about it on here, and I really appreciate everyone that shows interest.
We get a lot of them.
And then to your point, like how you're like, yeah, but we still took a risk.
It's like the, you know, calculated risk.
Anyway, it's like if they send, I want to be your editor, I can do this.
this, this, this, and this, and then they send, like, let's say just one video and, like,
that's it.
We can't take a risk on that.
It's just, you can't take a risk on that.
But what we saw from him, we can take a risk on.
And we did.
You know how many kids are probably listening to this right now?
Like, damn, I should have done that.
But, like, straight up.
When I talked to him on the job, he was smart.
He took the initiative.
And I think that's an awesome present part of the other kid.
Also, you can't do it now.
It's done.
It's done.
There's one person doing it.
And if you do do it, like you take it down.
Yeah, it gives us the option.
to just like copyright it but sorry you can go subscribe to our c boys tv clips channel and our
lifewide open clips podcast clips channel we're coming up on that when we're sitting there asking
him we're like why why did you start doing it and he was like dude i've been thinking about doing it for
two years and then i heard you guys talking about like on the podcast you had just like take initiative
and i was like i think i'm going to just start doing it and he said that he saw there was a couple
other channels that had tried but it looked like they only did you know four five six seven videos
and then they didn't stay with it and that's the biggest thing to is he stuck with it
even with our pot so like the see boys tv youtube clips are popping in my opinion the life
wide open clips we were very inconsistent with it because we didn't have time to do it so he
kind of got put into a slightly inactive channel but he stayed super consistent with it and he's
been hopping in the algorithm and if you look at the the views for the clips before he was
running it or you know our previous you know sporadic posts on it
to when he took it over and post one a day,
they just keep climbing.
He just keep climbing.
And I don't know,
I can appreciate that.
And we love it.
Good for him, man.
Good for him.
He could do it for a bunch of other people's channels, too,
if you want it,
if you think about it.
True.
He just basically got to get the attention of them
or find the right people.
Right.
Luckily, at the end of the day,
he is a big fan,
so that helps a lot.
Yeah, maybe he'll make a clip about this.
Hopefully.
The best part about Ashton is you don't even have to talk to him anymore.
Like, I mean, if you want it,
he could call me or text me anytime or I could do,
but, like, I don't have to monitor nothing.
I don't have to tell them to do anything.
You two said this when we were talking to the car last Friday.
He said the biggest asset someone can be is you not having to tell them what to do.
I'm just doing it.
You don't have to tell them on Wednesday morning to make a clip.
Makes a clip.
And if he doesn't, I mean, I guess that's his loss.
But he's been consistent with it.
Yeah, he's incentivized by percentage.
100%.
Yeah, might as well.
Make a million of them.
I told him.
I was like, dude, I hope, like, just continue to make bank.
is like it's only like the more the harder you work on it and you can just like it's not like
it's that hard he's just like the more it cuts yeah and the more creative you are with the titles
and thumbnails like you're gonna make good money so go from here subscribe to this channel
if you haven't please uh we by this time we have finally hit a hundred fifty k
hit me thank you thank you thank you i hope um let's go go go check out the clips channels
