We're rolling.
What's up, guys?
Welcome back to the podcast.
Sorry, we took a week off.
We're at Haydace.
Oh, we're not uploading this week?
What am I going to magically do?
Pop it out six hours ago?
I don't know.
I wasn't sure if we were just uploading it like a couple days late.
No, probably not.
That'd be fair.
Should we just jump right into it?
I have a little bit of a story.
I guess I could tell that happened before Haydays.
I've been holding it in.
Okay.
All right.
Okay.
So, like, two weeks ago, we had the weekend off.
I was hanging on my girlfriend and we were all out on the boat.
We were with you guys for a little while.
of it and then everyone went home and she had her friend out and we're all drunk and
driving around on the boat and you know I pulled a Ryan oh me I know yeah so I'm like kind of
which is yeah I'm pretty disappointed myself because now I'm in the same group as him but uh
you go psycho no I accidentally slapped one of my girlfriend's friends ass oh and it was like a full
Wait, who?
Like.
Was it me?
Like slap?
Like slapping.
No, my girlfriend's friends.
Oh, I thought you said another one of your friends.
I was like, oh shit, I didn't even know about this.
Okay.
Just like, just like a pat.
Like a slap, slap and squeeze.
Like I would, like, it was pretty aggressive.
I was not proud of myself.
And the reason why it happened, I'm not like Ryan where I try to just sneak him in.
Of course.
Like he did on your girlfriend.
Right.
So she was wearing my sweatpants.
So Alex gave her like some C-Boys TV sweatpants.
because they all went inside and it was cold.
Yep.
So I thought it was Alex because I was like,
what other girl would be wearing C-boy's sweatpants?
And I was, like, looking down and there's booty hair.
So I go, booty hair?
Booty hair? No, a booty here.
Oh, booty here.
Booty hair.
Slap it.
And there was, like, other people on the boat that we had, like, just picked up.
And I didn't realize it for, like, 30 seconds.
I didn't realize it for 30 seconds.
So I was just, like, kind of cruising around.
And everyone in the back was just like,
what got in the one?
She didn't say anything?
That's almost more disturbing.
Not right away.
She kind of was just like.
And then I realized it was her and I was like, whoa, oh my God, I'm so sorry.
And then I was like apologizing to her.
I was apologizing to Alex and they thought it was funny, which was good.
But it is quite an awkward situation to put yourself in, though.
You feel like a real idiot.
Was her boyfriend on the boat?
No.
She didn't have a boyfriend.
Oh, you're lucky.
That's good.
Are you like in business with her boyfriend and is he like one of your best friends?
Because that would make it a lot more awkward.
That would make it more uncomfortable then.
Then you got a little bit more on the line.
Well, mine wasn't premeditated.
It was like an actual accident.
Yeah.
Does he have a podcast that he's going to go roast you on?
Thank God, no.
Yeah, so that's the crazy part is Ryan knew all that going into it.
And it was, as you said, premeditated.
But he still, let's just say, wanted to take the chance.
I didn't mean to do it.
It was an accident.
It just happened.
That's funny.
Yeah, I was like premeditated is so far from the Ryan just been on it up all night.
The last seven years.
I can't wait for my chance.
Tonight at the dark MGK concert.
Today is my chance
That's what it seemed like Ryan
Anyways though
I've been holding that
In for a while
Well we'll keep you two over there
Scumbags
Now you're scaring me
It might happen again
It might not be either of you guys
But could be Ken
Well Ken does that on the reg though
Yeah I mean I don't think that'd be too
I don't either
Yeah
People would expect that
The girls would too
But anyway alright
So okay so back to
Back to Haydays
I guess to just give everybody
A little bit of context
Heydays is like a kickoff to winter party where all like the snowmobile industry brands kind of come together
and that's like a quarter of it and then the other three quarters of it is just like swap
people like setting up tents and just like selling shit or they just come to party and camp there
basically like I don't 50,000 60,000 people I can't remember how many cares of this either a lot of people
but we've been going there for I don't know five five years we've been doing YouTube for what six years
yeah we've been going to that show i think right away actually maybe six years and we started
with a table in the middle of swap and we just had a couple t-shirts hung up in the back and we had a like
a handmade see boys tv sign and we just like posted on our stories like hey if you guys are at hey days
come to the middle of swap row a 17 you should add like contact like swap is basically just like
public campground it's a giant fucking garage show yeah everybody pulls in and puts all their shit
from their house that they don't want anymore and tries to sell it.
Yeah.
So that was like the first kind of heydays setup that we had.
And it's so funny because we don't even have photos of it.
Because it looks like shit.
Like that's how bad it was.
And then the year after that, we were at like the edge of swap.
So we're like we're still in swap.
But at least like findable this year.
And then the year after we were like on the very far side of like where like businesses
would be.
And then it got a little bit bigger and a little bit bigger and a little bit.
bit bigger. And then this year, we were like right next to 509, right next to Polaris. And it was
like electric. Yeah, it was. Like there was like something in the air at our booth for 12 hours
straight. People waiting in line for like two and a half hours. So just to like meet our numbs is like,
seriously like insane. Evan was loving. He was drinking teas. And he was progressively getting louder
as the day went on because he was drinking tea. So it was like the rest of us were getting tired.
But Evan was just getting more drunk.
So, like, I'm sure everyone was like, man, Evan sure is friendly.
But at the very end, when we give away the pit bike, we're up on top of the steam and
there's a sea of people around us and we're throwing free stuff out.
I'm on the megaphone.
And Evan looked at me and goes, should we Woodstock 99 this shit?
Like start a riot.
And I was just like, I thought about it for a second.
I was like, no, we can't do that, Evan.
Because he was all tuned up.
Yeah, when we gave that pit bike away, it was electric.
And the kid was right in front of us when we announced it.
Dad center of this crowd.
Dude, that could not have been any better.
No, it was perfect.
Kenner, CJ says the name.
And then I'm just, I have the camera pointed at the audience.
Everyone's going, oh, oh, oh.
And then a little kid's hands just go up in the air.
We're like, oh, he's here.
And he's like this.
It's me.
Just in disbelief.
His mom was not stoked.
Why?
Did you guys get that vibe too?
No.
Uh-uh.
Oh, maybe.
I could have been wrong.
I could have been wrong.
But when we gave the bike to him.
I think she was worried that he was going to get hurt on it.
I was like, you can just sell it.
Yeah, that could be the case.
That could be the case.
But I was like, yeah, this is crazy.
And she's like, uh-huh.
I was like, oh, she's not, she's not on the same.
She probably had to figure out a way to take it home then.
Yeah, they did we give them straps or anything.
Who, we don't even know what things at all.
We're like, all right, see you.
There it is.
Good luck.
Didn't even think of that.
No, at one point.
I did wonder that.
I'm like,
I wonder what he ended up doing with it,
you know?
Like,
what if they legit drove a Camry or something?
He rolls it back to swap
and just posts it for sale.
I feel like he could have.
Yeah, damn.
Yeah,
actually we didn't think of money.
Hades brings out a special breed of people.
Yeah.
I can't remember Trent had a name for them.
We'll go with lot lizards,
but they're just like bad,
like the backwoods and everybody comes out.
You put on like your t-shirt with the vulgar words that you can't wear
anywhere else.
You're like,
this is a perfect Hayday shirt.
We watched a guy jump off the roof of an RV onto a folding table and like blew it out.
And then he went, that was sick.
And then Sane paid him a hundred bucks to do it again.
And then he jumped onto two folding tables.
Which actually looked easier.
But they did this last year.
I'm pretty sure off the same RV.
Not the same guy.
But I'm like, I'm pretty sure this is the same RV that someone jumped off last year.
And I didn't like I wasn't expecting to see it again.
At Trent's?
Yeah, yeah, right?
Yeah, across from them.
And so also the shenanigans going on at this time, he doubles it up.
So, Sussain pays him 100 bucks.
I didn't know that.
But doubles the tables up.
But then there's a guy with a sex doll named Ursula who put that on top of it.
So she got R.K.O. for sure.
We just got an email.
I actually haven't read the whole thing.
We just got an email.
They asked us if we took Ursula.
What?
It said, do you guys steal my Ursula at Haydays?
She went missing Friday night.
Then I see pictures Saturday with her and you guys, L.O.L.
Wait, pull up the picture.
Pull up the picture.
It's this guy.
And then.
When did we take a picture with that, Ursula?
Oh, Ken's in the background.
But yeah, like, I mean, that was.
Look at this. You guys, look at this.
Ken, where are you speaking off to it?
It does look like Ken is up to something.
Ken was up to something on Saturday night.
Hold up. Hold up.
Has anybody checked the backseat of Ken's Tesla?
The Fronk.
What?
Ken?
That's where everything goes missing.
Did you take Ursula?
Ken was on an absolute tyrant on Saturday night.
So it wouldn't have, I wouldn't have put it past him to snag Ursula.
I don't know what your plans were with her, Ken, but.
In your defense, Ken, I did see then on Sunday someone's pulling out with the trailer.
And it's like they purposely must have done this, but they took the sex doll and then closed the trailer like halfway on her.
So she's hanging on the back.
I was like, well, there goes Earth.
Did I tell you guys a story about the episode of Fast and Furious I got to see on Friday night?
Saturday night.
Episode?
Episode.
Episode.
Segment.
Whatever.
Okay.
So I ended up getting the full story.
So we'll start with that.
Apparently, somebody cut like a blimp off of one of the booths down the way.
So it flies up and it's illuminated.
So you basically...
Oh, the LED blimp.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So everybody who's like drunk party and basically sees this LED blimp just go floating away.
And everybody's like, whoa, look at that.
At this point, I didn't know that.
Chase and I are walking down like the main drag,
and it's dealers on one side and then camping on the other.
So we're just walking, chatting, whatever,
and we can kind of hear like a little commotion.
Guy comes sprinting across the row,
shortly followed by him is a golf cart,
also bombing because there's security everywhere, everywhere.
And they're on four-wheelers, golf carts, razors, whatever.
So security on a golf cart comes bombing over the hill,
and it's chasing after him.
We're like, whoa, what the fuck?
Then about two and a half seconds later,
this guy comes by on a four-wheeler,
light bars on, full tilt,
over the hill kind of loses a little bit of traction,
like two wheels it and careens
and just rams through like five folding tables
into an enclosed trailer.
What?
Like 25 feet in front of it.
Wait, he was a security guard?
He was a security guard.
What?
Put this way, you put a guy in a vest
and he's fucking pretty happy.
The guys that were working at Haydays,
we're acting like they were like FBI agents.
Yeah, Jesus.
Dude.
So I didn't hear about that.
Dude did too much.
Yeah, dude did too much.
And the funny thing was the guy was running.
It was a drunk guy running.
Like he was on a four-wheeler.
It can't be that hard to catch him.
So anyway,
crashes into this thing.
Gave the four-wheeler to the wrong guy.
Gets up,
runs over and tackles this dude.
We didn't know we-
Yeah, we didn't know he had cut the blimp.
Oh, you know.
He had cut the blimp.
He had cut the blimp, allegedly, but we didn't know this at the point.
Tackled him like he had actually just murdered an entire family.
Like took him down, fucking slammed him in the ground.
Was he a cop or a security guard?
A security gun?
So Chase and I run over there.
This is all under like a light plant.
We're watching it.
I'm like trying to rip out my phone.
Security's coming up to us kind of telling us to get away.
This guy's just beating this kid up on the ground.
I'm like, holy crap.
This is intense.
What do you do?
more security comes,
like and whatever.
So then super drunk guy
that crashed the four wheeler.
And he was a security guard?
Security guard.
Are you sure he was drunk?
Yes.
And this is why.
They are really letting anybody be security there.
This is what I think.
So then they come and work close.
Not that we can hear this.
And they're like,
you got to get out of here.
You got to get out of here.
They're telling the security guard this.
Oh my gosh.
Security guard walks over,
grabs these folding tables,
like it was the folding table's fault
for being in the way of his four wheel.
trucks them out of the way.
Who were they?
Just some random ass people?
A vendor.
They just happened to be there.
Gets on his four wheeler fucking cranks it up.
Throws it in reverse.
You know,
goes like that,
jams it in a drive.
Rips off and tears off into the distance.
It's another folding table and trailer.
It's another person.
Just tears off.
And then the real police came.
And then the kid was sitting there.
He's like,
I didn't do anything.
I was just walking to my friend's house.
And then we're like,
it seems like it's over yeah how do you prove that i remember a handful of people asking us about the
blimp thing and i'm like that's kind of funny i mean it sucks for whoever lost their branded blimp
but they were like we got to track this kid down he needs to be sitting in jail tonight yeah they were
like really pissed but yeah they were really upset i saw a really funny picture maybe like i won't be
fine but it they like photoshop the the ump bumpers one they they photoshopped it in orbit
Dude, yo, BMP should thank whoever cut that blimp because it's the best publicity they physically could have gotten.
Yeah, dude, everybody was talking about it.
Everyone was talking about it, dude.
And yeah, honestly, though, that is a safety hazard for that thing going up.
And it's like massive.
Like, it's probably like a six foot ball.
Yeah.
And like imagine like the, the FF, the, not the FAA, the FAA, the FAA is sitting there and they all of a sudden get beep.
Beep, it's like moving, they're like, what do we got here?
What do we got?
They're like, zoom in on it, zoom in on it.
Thinking that it's like a nuclear threads or something like that.
And they're like, does that say BMP bumper?
But yeah, anyway, security was, it was getting out of hand.
Haydays just tends to get out of hand.
Definitely.
I mean, I went too overboard on Sunday night, Saturday night.
Mike got off the leash and he was barking.
It's exactly what.
He was barking.
Everyone the next day was, I mean, you were hilarious.
but I don't even know how you got to that point.
I don't know.
Over did it.
Sunday hurt,
but it was a beautiful weekend.
So this kid at Haydays got a no can do tattoo.
We've seen people get tattoos a handful of times.
Like the signature.
So we're signing like shirts and taking pictures and stuff.
And people will sometimes get like life wide open tattooed on.
Like I'd say a pretty like a handful of people have that tattooed on them on their leg.
A kid comes up, no tattoos nothing goes.
Ken, I want to get no kandu tattooed on my chest, on my chest.
And I almost thought he was joking.
I did.
Well, Ken does the most half-ass job writing no can do.
Like, he held the sharpie at the farthest tip.
It was like, no, so it's like, you know.
It got on his nipple, dude.
So it's like, you know, when you're sharpying something like on skin and it kind of like
bunches up and then jumps.
And that's, I was like, ah, fuck.
Either way.
Already did that.
I'm just going to finish it off and just kept doing that on his skin.
I was just like, oh, he's definitely going to probably read you that.
Because if he actually is
Basically the kid ends up leaving then
And I was like
There's no way he's actually getting this tattoo he's
Comes back two hours later
Tattooed on his chest
I was thinking there's no way
This kid actually goes through and does this
There's no way a tattoo shop
We'll be able to get it done same day
Comes back two hours later
And he's just like ecstatic about it
And I was like oh no I'm fucking
Don't trim is I should have like
I should have like fix this
Yeah you should have white
It's not even like half ass
job I've ever seen.
This kid's got it for the rest of his life
in camera.
And he doesn't even have a single tattoo.
Most people that gets like a something tattooed on are like covered and you're like
it doesn't really matter.
Just blends it.
I didn't think he was going to.
His parents are going to be livid.
I don't think he was going to follow through with it on a Saturday afternoon.
He had been what?
Like 18.
You got like the clip of Ken.
We'll throw that in like is priceless of when you first saw it.
Like when you first saw you, you went.
Oh my God.
And you kind of like looked around to make like make sure no one was.
don't know. We were all just like, damn, Ken, that's on you. But no, it was. It was cool. It was
cool. He made it in the video. And the tattoo artist did kind of clean it up. So it looks a little
punk rock now. Yeah. He's kind of cool. He's definitely going to need some more, some more.
You add more to that Nick and look good. A full chest piece. Yeah. He needs like an eagle
across his chest to cover up. Is what he's going to need. So that was pretty crazy. So shout out all
the wild fans and the wild interactions we had. Definitely.
So kind of on that, you know, the guy that cut that thing and probably ended up in jail,
would you guys rather spend a year in jail straight or gay?
Sorry, dude, I didn't mean, it just, I came out, sorry.
But no, definitely straight.
He's serving the year.
Oh, man.
That literally, I didn't even control that
Finish the damn question
I don't know if I can
I would go off of that
All right
Would you rather spend
A year in jail straight
Or
It's definitely the wording
God damn
A year straight in jail
Mike's such a little smart ass
He had to put that in
I see what you're doing now
Okay
Yeah fuck
So would you rather spend
one year straight in jail. God damn.
One year consecutively.
Let me just fucking redo this.
Consecutively.
Would you rather spend one entire year in jail
or five years
but you just go on the weekends?
Fuck that. I'd do one year.
I do the year.
Okay, but wait. There is some perks
to only going on the weekends.
One, you never have to go to anybody's shitty wedding.
For five years.
You got a good, no, just jail.
You got a good excuse.
You're free during the week, dude.
You get out, go to work.
I think the upside would be being able to have a job.
You have a job.
You work, watch Netflix at night.
I don't know.
There is perks to it, honestly.
So I take it you're on the weekend side of things.
Every weekend, like there's no more Sunday scleries.
You're looking forward to the work week.
You get out.
You're well rested.
You're looking forward to Monday.
Yeah, you work out.
You can work out on the weekends.
You got time to work out.
you're probably not going to be drinking as much.
No.
I think it off the wagon.
There's no more Sunday scleries because that doesn't exist,
but there is like the Friday evening scleries of having to go to jail every weekend.
However, once you got used to it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Thursday.
No, I'd still, uh, for the record, I'd still take the year.
Jesus.
I, uh, but maybe it depends on if it's just like a normal jail or if it's like a pretty
hardcore one because then I,
I think I'd rather go in and out so you can escape it.
Sounds like a scary place
Yeah no jail doesn't sound sick
Yeah I just thought about that
I was like well then you have to go to frigging weddings and do
You can dump all the weekend plans
You don't really want to do
Obviously you wouldn't get all the weekend plans you did want to do
Yeah
More people are doing like Thursday weddings now though
So it's like still can't get out of that
You can do then maybe you can pick you just say
I don't go to weddings
Exactly right
Stop going to weddings and you don't have to go to jail either
Well I mean I'm not saying that I would prefer to go to jail
Instead of a wedding
I'm just saying that that would be a good excuse.
Ryan's just out here committing crimes.
Like, oh, I can't, sorry, Mr. Wedding.
I robbed the convenience store.
Just jail and just on the weekends.
Ben, you want to hop back in?
But back to the blimp getting cut off, though.
Didn't one of you guys get like accused of doing it too?
Really?
No, we were in, uh, hanging out over at our buddies, like, race.
I don't know what you want to call it, trailer thing.
really sweet trailer and as we leave
and it was like very tame like just like
four of us over there me tint mark
and Kevin
and we go walking out of there
and uh police come
from like all angles like hey hey what are you doing like
like you'd have thought we were like a wanted fugitive
and they were kind of grilling us and then one of them like
from the back goes oh DJ
and I was like hey what's up he's like oh and then
everyone just like put their guard down and then
I was like yeah we're just going back to our campsite
or whatever
They were fully investigating it.
I think I want to start a new segment every week on the podcast.
I'm going to bring up an idiot from the internet because we are not the only people
that can.
I thought you're going to say from the group.
Fellow idiots of the internet.
Idiots calling out idiots.
It's only fair, honestly.
Yeah, if you're not an idiot, you don't deserve to call another person an idiot.
No, exactly.
It takes one to no one.
So this is from our good friends, the Dobre brothers.
Oh, yes.
By good friends, we don't know.
But I happen to be scrolling through shorts, and someone commented on it and was like
the Dobre brothers crashed their Lambo.
And I was like, I have to see this.
And I haven't seen this yet, but the Dobre brothers are prime examples of, you know,
made a bunch of money on YouTube, bought a bunch of supercars.
They're like the prime example of what makes YouTubers have a bad rep.
Yeah, probably just don't belong to hooning supercars.
I mean, and I don't know, it's hard to, that doesn't necessarily mean we are either, but
my question is who's watching the dobrate brothers have you ever met somebody out in the wild
just be little kids but they have insane followings no offense but they are like legitimately dumb
are they acting i don't know i don't know even if they are acting they still are coming across
dumb like not even acting dumb just coming across dumb while they're acting i'll only play the
ending but the premise of what has happened is they're at a drag strip
and he has a Hurricon STO, a Lamborghini Huracan STL, which is a very...
Can we get a price tag on that, anybody?
Yeah, 1.7 million views, so that's pretty good.
He crashed his Lamborghini and only got 1.7 million views.
That sucks.
So the premise of this is they're at an abandoned drag strip,
and they're going down the drag strip,
and then turning around, and then coming back.
And I believe it was some type of time trial thing.
They're like 350, 400.
to answer your question, Mike.
Ad rev ain't paying for that.
No, definitely bad, bad return on investment there.
Is he wearing driving gloves?
He is wearing driving gloves,
and he made a comment about how that would help him in the race.
And do be fair, do be fair, I said the exact same thing.
And it didn't help him.
Mine was at least joking.
I think the audience at least knew that I was joking.
Yeah, and then they weren't even driving gloves.
Didn't know that.
So this is the turn.
I have to do a couple point turn here.
Bro, you guys are so dumb.
Oh shit, he's moving.
Poor camera guy, dude.
You're going too fast.
Hit the brakes, bro.
Too late.
Oh my gosh.
bro we're all silent that's that's the vibes
he's like
dude it legit didn't look like he hit the brakes until he passed the Ferrari here
so yeah he must have thought he was going to just stop on a dime
from 150 to nothing so yeah if you look at this pedometer when he crashes
he was doing 148
148 oh my gosh that thing is sick too
he's bags right out oh my gosh
you guys good
get out
quick the camera guy wants to get out there
he's like getting a sick car though
super sick dude yeah the camera guy's like
I literally told you dude
you're going too fast
oh that's my favorite part
he's leaking
and then he goes where
and the guy goes from the front
he goes well that's good because the engine's in the back
and soon here
they'll pull up the outside angle
and it is gnarly
who's calling you at this hour
I don't want to shit on them too much
I don't want to shit on them too much
that's good
except for this metal fence and my right
side mirror
I don't want to shit on them too much
you know because accidents happen
and these are real people
but
pretty dumb
looking back um this is them they're all just they're all like oh dude we fucked up hard
oh no dude oh you know i haven't been to that many racetracks but usually when you you don't turn
around at the end of a no definitely you're just kind of like a run out and then there's another
road to bring you back and i like the idea of it it sounds fun i mean i like the idea of the u-turn thing
but also just don't come into the starting line at 100.
I'm just imagining Ken
going to a dragger
but then these guys are there
and they start driving down
when Ken's supposed to be going forward.
I'm picturing Ken getting there
and doing the same thing,
doing like, I thought we had to race back.
Look at the outside view of this, dude.
You're going too fast.
He's like, yeah, you're going.
What was his plan?
Oh, no.
And so he mentions the dirt patch, and he's like, I hit a dirt patch.
That's why I couldn't stop.
He was actually pretty close.
If he was only doing like 120 instead of 150 and no dirt, I think he could have made it.
At least they're still popping up their Instagram tags.
I know.
I love that.
There's tags everywhere through this video.
So yeah, not good, but the good news is they did buy him a new Lamborghini in the next video.
That's nice of them.
And that's kind of the move.
It's like, yeah, get it fixed.
Eh, new Lamborghini.
It's garbage.
Was this planned?
Well,
I enjoyed that,
Ryan.
They definitely didn't crash that day,
they had 140 planned.
It aren't that crazy.
That's what I was saying.
Based on their reactions and everything,
it was not planned.
Like,
they're not,
they don't seem reckless.
They don't have the balls.
No one has the balls to do that.
That fast, bro.
Yeah.
Basically could have hit a post.
Yeah,
could have hit that Ferrari.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So please subscribe and come back next week for
the next guy that I find
that's an idiot.
the internet fellow idiot on the internet i'm looking forward to that that's good same but anyways we got
our friends miller and kyle here fellow YouTubers they're sitting in the in the background right
now you might as well hop on so well originally we met miller he was a filmmaker for braden price
for a while we still actually haven't not met brayden uh and then i believe Kyle you're good friends
with him and also uh kind of a fellow off-road YouTuber and then you started filming for
Miller started filming for Chase and Haley and then we went to the Florida Freedom Factory
Race and all had a really, really good time there. And we've been friends ever since.
So it's good to have you guys. So what do you guys got going on? You're doing like some kind
of road trip across America filming videos? That was the plan in the start of it. We were just like,
let's go on it. I got a K&M. Let's take both of them, drive across the state, just do like a really
cool series with it. And then we like got a month out from it and we were like, okay, we're not
planned at all and so let's just you know try to go like halfway across and then we were like
who's halfway across and then you guys came up and uh so are we the end or the beginning so i would say
you guys are kind of the end we started it's like i would say the trip started or we started talking
when we were going out to utah back in february or last february we went to utah and we're like
man it'd be really cool to bring the side by sides out here because we went in the winter time we went
snowboarding and snowmobiling for the first time which was an awesome experience so are you guys still
planning to go to utah on this trip so on this trip i would say this is the end of our
but now we're like thinking okay this is what it takes to do a trip like this this was kind of like
the feeler and we got the test run and um making it you know okay now we know what we want to do
where we want to go for the future trip and that would be you guys filming videos together or for
your own separate channels together how's this going over the trip we've discovered that like
if i want to do like a certain video they help me a little bit so you don't have the same video
twice exactly yeah right and it helps that we have more than one person for each vlog and we kind
of bounce off each other pretty well yeah and so actually it's three of us going on this trip so
it's me miller and actually my little brother luke he is my film or an editor um so having the three
of us to just kind of bounce off each other for whose ever video it might be that we're right
um just makes so much more sense then yeah okay we're gonna both film this and see who creates a
better video out of it right yeah because you've kind of been in the youtube game for a while
now Miller haven't you yeah I've been like how many years um for as a filmer or like myself even just doing
it man like you were because you were with braden for a while weren't you yeah i started braden
2019 and it just kind of happened on a whim actually i didn't even know i wanted to be an editor for a
youtube channel and i met this dude at a truck a truck meet and he was like hey how can i like
how can i use my camera and all this stuff and you know i helped him out just right and price was asking
you that no no no no one of his friends was actually so yeah no brain came up to me no but
but no one of his friends really good friends was and he was just learning how to do camera stuff and I was like yeah I'll help you out like just showed him how to use his camera and about four months later he called me he's like hey I know you're really good with cameras and my buddy's looking for an editor do you think you'd want to be in it and I was like do you think you want to do it and I'd give it a shot and so I kind of met up with Braden then and I would go up to his house for a week work go home for a week kind of like part time and then in early 2020 I moved down to Charlotte full time
just live there and just edit videos for our...
Dude, I filmed full-time with them.
Because he posts a lot of videos, so, like, what's that, what's like that kind of schedule
look like?
We, uh, at first, we would do, like, try to do two a week and, like, we didn't really
know, like, how we wanted to schedule it, because we were both, he was at, like,
600K when I joined, and we were just, like, trying to figure stuff out, and it got, we got
to a, uh, we got to meet the Gugan squad, the guys who fish and everything.
Yeah, Andrew Flair.
you know, all of them.
We flew out to Texas to collaborate with them,
and we watched them do six videos in a day.
And we were like, all right.
Six videos in a day?
How is that possible?
Dude, they would go in.
So there's like six,
they're like six YouTubers,
but they have like a channel together,
like a community channel.
And so what they do was they fly into Dallas, Texas
for three days out of one month,
create so much content the last till the next month.
Holy shit.
Dude, they grind.
They must have everything so planned out.
Dude,
had a giant whiteboard and everything of like exactly times like plans like and we're like oh
dude we're not we're doing this wrong and so we went back and i think for a little under a year we did
every other day yeah i remember he was posting so much dude we posted so much and i lived there
full time with him in his parents house and dude we did we grinded art like asses out it had been miserable
editing all those videos it was a lot of editing it was just me editing yeah so we spent there it looked like
that it was just that was you.
Yeah.
You ran everything as far as the back end went.
Yeah.
No, I,
everybody's always told me that,
that you were like,
dude,
you're the man behind the curtain kind of deal.
Yeah,
you have to.
Every editor is,
dude.
Yeah.
It was a lot of grind.
And then we kind of slowed down.
We hired another editor because I was becoming more of a,
you know,
member,
kind of like another character on there.
And so we had another editor.
That way I could film with Brandon because we have a great
filmmaker, like,
you know,
response and stuff.
I remember seeing this one video, which was it you or the other guy that got pranked by
Braden Price?
Was he like catfish one of you guys, didn't he?
I actually did that to the other editor.
Oh, you did that.
Dude, it was so bad.
It went so far.
So I have questions about that now.
So you were, you pretended to be a girl and were full on sliding in his DMs?
No, no.
So we went to a bar.
Brain had just turned 21 and we went to the first bar.
And this dude, Christian, he's an awesome dude.
But we went to this bar and he was like just, you know, this waitress, like, seemed half interested in him.
And so he left her, he left her his number.
And as soon as I saw him do that, I like, I was like, oh, I clicked in my mind.
I was like, oh, okay.
So as we walked out, I downloaded a text now app and texted him off a fake number.
I was like, this is going to be a great YouTube video.
I've seen people do it before.
Yeah, there's a whole show on it.
Catfishing people.
Yeah, literally.
And so I, dude, texted him.
on off all week. Like I wasn't, it wasn't like weird.
Okay. That was my next question.
It was like, this going on for months where you guys, did you have them sending dick pics,
like saying, I love you and stuff?
Like, how far you put it? No, it was just like very, like, just the usual girl like flirt
bullshit. I'd imagine girls say, you know. And so. And he was buying it. Dude, he was so,
and he came in the work the next day. He was like, dude, that girl text me. Dude was hyped about
it. It was so funny. So it went on for a week. We left work on Friday. I was like, hey, man,
you got any plans this weekend?
He was like, yeah, me and this girl might hang out and stuff.
Oh, my gosh.
And about halfway through, I told Braden, and Braden freaked out, thought it was the funniest thing ever.
Oh, really?
He was like, oh, so he didn't even know about it for a little while.
No, he didn't even know about it.
And so I was like, I didn't want to bring everybody in and it just beat everybody against him
because I feel like that hurt a little bit more.
But, man, I texted him on that Saturday morning.
Apparently he went to a party, like a frat party up in, you know, Greensboro.
It was just like two hours away.
And he was partying all day long.
And so I texted him.
I didn't even know he was doing this.
I didn't even know his plans.
And I was like, hey, you'll go to catch a movie in, like, in the town we live in.
And he was like, yeah, sure, yeah, I'll be down there.
Just like seven work because I'm out of town right now.
I was like, oh, crap, but I can't go back now.
And so he drove an hour and a half to meet this girl for a movie.
Oh, my God.
He gets there.
Dude's been partying all day long.
And he's, like, covered in, like, booze.
And, like, his shorts are, like, soaked from, like, just partying really hard.
Yeah, full-blown, like.
Yeah, full bump, yeah, shows up, stuff on his neck.
Like, dude had been partying all day long.
Okay.
And he shows up, and he's standing outside waiting for it.
And meanwhile, I'm in my car hunkered down.
Just by himself, waiting for some.
Oh, yeah.
On the movie, did you bring anyone else?
Yeah, no, I brought my family and my family's friends.
Your family?
Yeah, I brought my family.
It was a big moment.
My family, they were already in town.
And so I was like, hey, you guys want to go punk my friend.
I've been trolling them
I thought you're going to say
with the love of his life
No I FaceTime braided at the same time
But okay
So I run up with the camera
And I also recorded it on my phone
For Snapchat
Because you know
You have to have that both angles
And so he runs up
And he's like
Hey dude
What are you doing here
I'm like no idea
And I was like hey Christian
I'm like I'm sorry man
And he's like
What do you mean
Like I'm supposed to me
I'm supposed to meet
The Sarah girl here
I was like
But like come on
And he goes
No
No you got to be
You got to be messing with me
I was like bro
But he took it really well
He just started dying laughing
That's a good way to take it
I was gonna really put that like the far way
And just like got an episode MTV and everything
He hoped that you were just trolling him for a quick sec
You're like no I am missing with you
And I have been for a long time
Yeah no he took it well and everybody was like
Dude that's messed up
And I was like he thought he was a good sport about it
There's certain people you can't do that too
And they get more offended
I can never conjure up a prank like that
I know you could
I'm a prankster and Ben is too.
I think that one might have been too far.
I'm glad I didn't hang around you.
You're a savage, dude.
I was about to do it again to someone else.
You're a catfish, bro.
You're a catfish.
No, but then I was like, okay, I took it too far last time.
Let me not do it again.
But Kyle's actually really good at pranks.
He's pranking me a few times on this trip.
And it's just like the good, genuine, like.
Yeah.

so let's rewind a little bit here so you you were you started off doing youtube as an editor
you're just full-time editing yeah and then now i've made the switch where you're doing your own thing
yeah i i mean i did it for a while like off and on probably since like 2017 like off and on
to try to do a motovlog channel like you know how they you know all those big motovolars and
stuff that was a big wave of youtube i tried that for a little while and now as it was kind of dying
out like full again all those guys i was always watch those guys and so i was like i'll try i had a
gram you know i'll do that for a little while tried that and then try to do some car content
and then try to do some like video photo stuff and then i found with brayden and as soon as i saw
brayden like and how he you know could tell a story i was like oh this is kind of cool i
So you learn something.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I learn, I mean, I learn a lot from, you know, just being around the world.
Right.
It's definitely easier being surrounded by people that do it.
This is like, I guess you'll get a little plug, but you guys got to check out Miller's
Instagram page just because it is just beautiful.
Just the three, it just looks so good and just stuff like that.
I mean, you definitely have more refined in that aspect.
But like, I don't know, I just, I literally go to your Instagram page every once in a while just to, like, go, ah, this looks so good.
The aesthetic.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, I've been doing photo and video for a long time and, you know, just trying to grow as a freelance photographer.
And so I just really wanted to have a really aesthetically pleasing Instagram and stuff.
And then you kind of made the switch.
So you were, like, I'd imagine you were probably getting paid pretty well, being an editor for Braden,
especially being that you were working your ass off.
Yeah, there's a lot of long nights and a lot of days for sure.
So then what made you want to leave them or leave him?
After a while, Brandon's been a really, really good friend.
and I'm going to try to like...
You guys are still tight?
We're still tight, yeah.
We still were really good friends.
And, of course, when I left, it was a little bit of like a...
The tension?
A little bit of tension, yeah.
And so I really wanted to travel more, and I really wanted to do stuff more cars.
We were doing so much mudding, so much, you know, dirt bikes.
And I was like, I started out doing a lot of car stuff.
And I was like, I'd really like to, you know, get back into the motorsports kind of thing.
And so, and travel more and see everything.
Because with Braden, he's got this really tight grip on.
doing everything local doing everything you know he's got a really good way in process of just
filming at his house like he can go out and ride for 15 minutes behind his house and make a crazy
video you know like full video full video yeah full 15 minutes yeah but like and he just goes and
does you know does you know that mud hole does the pond does you know riding pit bikes like just
right there local which is a really gift like it's a really big gift for him like he can just
film it he doesn't pretty efficient i'd imagine super i mean i'd say like
To an extent we are similar in that way, we can always make, it's the same vibe.
You know, like, if we can get together in our backyard, we're always going to be happy and make a good video.
But I feel like the thing that sets you guys apart is there's now six of you.
So for you guys to go jump in and do something, if you did it for 10 minutes from six angles or six perspectives or six people jumping in, it's going to produce so much more content than just one single person doing one thing.
That definitely helps too.
I think that's honestly what makes, exactly, what makes your content and your channel works so well
because there is a group of you. And I know you've been told that so many times. As long as you
keep your group together, you guys are always going to be something so different. The beauty of traveling
too, like, yeah, is, well, we got the boys. We know it's going to be good. The only thing I wish is that
we could film a full YouTube video in 15 minutes. We'd be pumping these things out.
Yeah, we would like, he was like, all right, I was like, what do you want to do today?
he'd be like, all right, we'll go take, we'll throw a different set of tires on this one.
Like, we'll go throw big tires on it or small tires and then just like go and film that for like 30 minutes, 30 to 45 minutes.
You have a full video.
And people love it, dude.
Yeah, people eat it up.
He's got a very good, like, you know, cold following for that and just, I mean, it works for him.
It really works for him.
And then it was just becoming really routine for me.
And I was like, you know, Haley and Chase came into the thing and we became really, really good friends.
And I was doing a little sidework for them at the time.
time and they were like Miller would you like when I join like full time like Chase and
Hayley did yeah Chase and Hayley they're like when we could afford it like we'd really like to have
you on just for the people I own right yeah Haley Digan and her boyfriend Chase
really good friends of mine and they're like when we can afford it we'll pay you like
that'd be sick because we'd like we all got along really really well yeah we all had like
then you'd get to travel around and travel around get a mass car stuff you know her family was really
awesome. So when they asked this, was this, were they at all, like, I guess if I was to go
approach a filmmaker for another YouTube channel, I'd be a little bit like, I know we're stepping
on feet here, but would you, did they like realize that they were? That and I was like, honestly,
at that time, I was like a little over, like a little ready for some change. I was like, I felt
very stagnant and like in the beginning. I was like, you always have to level up. You can only
grow as big as your environment, that kind of deal. And I was like, this might be like,
I'll make a lot of good connections this way. And I was like, I was honestly ready to like change
up something either way, whether it be them or not. And so, because I'd asked, you know,
Braden for, you know, a little bit more or like, I was like, dude, I've been with you for a long
time. Like, you know, he's a really good friend and it's like, it's hard to work for your friend
and stuff like that. So, and especially with having another employee on there, it was just like,
it wasn't it was very stagnant and I was like all right I'm ready to change regardless of who
it is to or just try to level up would you be like uploading the video to his channel too
all I did everything so you'd upload it and everything like that film it I'd up I'd edit it
upload it I'd create clips of it and post on his Instagram so when you'd upload it I'm sure
you were kind of like seeing the ad like the ad rev of 28 days and you're just like fuck this dude
I should be doing this.
Is that what you were thinking?
Because that's what I would have been thinking.
Yeah.
And he had always said, like, whenever I make more, you'll make more.
And I was like, all right, that's like, that'll be sick.
Like, he was like, when we reach this level, you'll reach this level.
And I was like, it kind of like, it kind of didn't go that way.
And so I was like, all right, well, do you get in like.
Right.
Well, to be fair, though, in Braiden's defense, I mean, he had been doing it for a long time.
Oh, yeah, no, yeah, no.
Because I remember watching his videos when I was trying to figure out how to kind
to do YouTube and he would have his GoPro and just do wheelies and stuff with who was the buddy
Julius Julius yeah is he still in the picture whatever yeah no he's yeah he's all we're all
really good friends with that's cool but I remember watching him when he was like a little kid he was
on like a 150 yeah and I was like man this is this guy's like doing his thing you know and uh
definitely like watched him and took some inspiration from him and put in uh what we're all
doing you know oh yeah but yeah it makes sense why you would why you'd look at that and be
like I got you know I should do my own thing yeah I love doing it I love to right you know
YouTube and everything like that and so it was just really cool I mean I was just like all right
I if I can I might be able if I had a little more time I could do it in the right but you were
fully tap I was I could not I could not have a breath like without like I was always thinking brain
and not do it was taking right well you have to yeah oh yeah you were doing great job yeah
whenever I joined Haley and Chase I had a little bit more free time right had a little bit more
creative free to input them with them and stuff like that so it was really cool
joining them and their dynamic it was so different than bradens was like content content
whereas haley and chase are like let's have a good time and do content right yep and that's what
it was cool seeing you work for them do their stuff work on their stuff but then also like
pump out videos on your own and it was cool that there was a lot different than what they were
putting it out obviously because i've seen that happen too like if if they allow the film
to like do their own thing they're just putting out the same content so that was cool yeah so how about
you kyle when did you start youtubeing so ironically and how did it start i mean you guys got like a whole
squad of youtubeers yeah 30 minute because obviously you got you miller uh brayden haley and chase you guys all
live within like a 30 minute yeah we're about an hour away from each other so ironically two years
so september 9th was the first time i posted a video two years ago okay so i'm just hitting the
two year mark um i'm coming up on 150 000
subscribers, which is, you know, honestly,
for a two-year channel, not bad.
I agree. That's good. I agree. But I do have
a lot of people to thank for that, and Brady would definitely
be one of them. So, obviously,
your friend, Zach Goes, you know him.
Yeah. I grew up kind of watching Zach
Goes and his buddy, Cody, Cheney,
who was W.C. Derby. Yeah. He moved.
Yeah. I used to live in South Jersey, and
I knew who they were, and I followed Cody
on Snapchat, but I didn't really
like realize. I followed him because of
he's an arborist. He does tree work.
So I've always followed him because of that.
So I moved down to Charlotte, North Carolina in 2018.
I'm down there for a year.
I'm finishing out school, and I'm kind of just doing my thing, working a lot.
And I mean, I grew up riding.
That's what I did in Jersey.
There's so much riding there.
And so I made to North Carolina, and I kind of lost that, like, output.
Like, that was my hobby.
That was my thing.
And I lost it.
And so one day I see him on Cody's story, he had moved down there.
I was like, oh, that's cool.
Like, he rides the streets.
I ride trails.
Like, I would never cross paths with him.
But then, that is funny that he moved down there right when you decided to get into it.
Because watching him for a second, we watched him do wheelies all the time.
And then I'm like, I don't mean to offend any, but I'm just like, damn, dude, he's mudding now.
Yeah.
The hell?
So I see that he's down there.
And one day he just puts on a story like, hey, anybody local want to ride?
He's like, I got these cool trails.
So I sold up on the story.
I was like, hey, dude, I'm in Charlotte.
Like, do you want to ride?
Or like, I'll come ride with you.
And so I was so busy with work.
I would talk to him here and there.
It wouldn't really ever work out.
One week, I just had a free weekend.
And I was like, hey, dude, let's ride Saturday.
He's like, okay, cool, like, how old are you, how old are you and what do you ride?
And at the time, I didn't understand, like, I didn't grasp that concept.
And now being a YouTuber, I get it.
Because everybody always reaches out and like, oh, I've got an XR 100.
I'm 14, let's ride.
And it's like, I mean, you want to ride with like minded people and like skilled people.
I was like, oh, I think I was, I was in 20 at the time.
I was like, oh, I'm 20 and I've got a KX450.
He's like, okay, cool, here's my number and my address.
Like, how far are you?
And I was like 40 minutes from him or something.
So anyway, fast forward.
I get in.
Me and him literally click like brothers.
And you were filming YouTube videos at the time?
I wasn't doing anything.
I had maybe 500 Instagram followers.
You know,
I was nothing.
Was he on a bike as well?
Yeah.
So he had a YZ-125.
I had my KX and me and him just started riding.
And it was a March.
It was March when we met.
And we rode every weekend.
Literally,
we became best friends.
So that's where you got your insight.
So that was my,
hey, you made videos.
How was it?
So that was my first step into it.
And he told me like at that point,
I didn't realize he had a huge Instagram or YouTube.
I just met him and then learned about this,
which I'm so happy I did because it wasn't like,
I was following him like,
oh,
I hang out with this cool person.
So he's telling me about,
you know,
how he does all,
or how he used to do these videos with Zach Goz.
And I had seen some of those videos before.
And I was like,
well,
dude,
why don't you do them anymore?
Like you've got perfect content for this.
You've got all these trails,
all this cool stuff.
And he was like,
yeah,
I mean,
I don't know,
maybe it's just kind of hard to do it by yourself.
I'm like,
well,
I'm here,
I'll film or film me,
like bounce off each other.
And so I wasn't doing it because I wanted to do it.
I liked watching the videos and seeing myself in him and being a little bit of a part of them.
So fast forward, that starts going on.
He posted a few videos.
And then people were commenting and saying, oh, you should go ride with Braden Price.
And people are going on Braden's channel and saying, oh, you should ride with Cody.
And Miller actually.
I saw one of the comments.
Yeah.
He knew who Cody was and he had watched Cody forever.
Right.
So in what was it probably May?
I think early May.
Yeah.
I kind of got Cody in a starting ride four wheelers because I had a, I had a can't
And he went and bought him.
You have a little bit of credit for that.
Yeah.
So me and him were doing our thing and Braden comes and comes ride with us and they're filming.
I'm kind of like, not starstruck, but like, wow, this is.
So that was your first time meeting Braden?
That was the first time meeting Braden.
Although I grew up, or not grew up.
I moved 10 minutes from where he grew up and lived.
I went to the same high school, my senior year as him.
Never met him in high school.
I met him two years after I graduate and all this stuff.
Then, so anyway, do that thing with Cody.
We film with them.
we end up getting in contact i started talking to brayden realizing that we live like 10 minutes away from each other
obviously we've got a like you know similar similar interest so i started to hang out with them and be friends with them
and starting to do stuff with them i'm still doing a little of stuff with instagram and now my or i'm sorry still doing stuff with cody
and my instagram is starting to kind of pop off and grow and then now i'm starting to get more involved in bradden's videos and i'm getting more involved in cody's videos and his instagram
and just back and forth and people are just seeing this person it's like sending everything and having a great time
and just honestly I was you always are like there for fun exactly like whenever I've been around you
when you're filming you like there for fun first filming second which probably also comes to being like
because YouTube's kind of your secondary job isn't it and you I've asked you multiple times like why don't
you just go all in but you don't really want to obviously I would love to go full on in YouTube but
it is a hobby and I feel like that's what keeps my content like relatable I don't I don't treat it
like a job at all the filming and the editing is done so like I pay my little
brother ironically to do all that stuff and he does a phenomenal job at it but since i have that
disconnect from it and i'm just there to make the content yeah that it makes but you're not really
relying on the money either exactly so i'm not so if it goes great or if it goes bad it doesn't affect
my mood towards youtube i just do it because at the end of day in 20 years i want to look back and
be like oh these are watch your videos exactly that'd be pretty cool dude and pass on the stories like
oh man this is stuff like when i was little i used to hang out with haley degan or you know i've gone
to these races and met Ryan Deegan or Travis Pastrana or Adam LZ or these different huge
YouTubers that I would have just never imagined that I would have been able to meet or you guys
I mean hell I would have if you asked me two years ago would I be on a C Boys podcast right now
I would have never imagine a million years I don't know and I mean and it's cool like hearing how
you started and this and that but like I just associate you with Braden right I know there's a lot
as far as numbers go a lot of difference but I just do and I think that's cool I'm like
Oh, yeah, Kyle.
Yeah, he's a YouTuber from North Carolina.
So Braden did give me my start, and, you know, a lot of people were like,
oh, what's your YouTube channel?
Because down there, everybody had their little YouTube channel.
Yeah, it's like it seems like everyone's got a channel.
They do.
That's cool, though.
Which is a good and bad thing, I think.
I don't see that's a problem.
It gives you, it can be a problem.
If everyone's copying each other, is that something that you got to be worried about?
Sort of, and I would say that's what kind of gave.
So anyway, Braden, I was on Brady's channel.
Everybody's like, well, what's your YouTube channel?
I don't have one.
And more people are asking and asking and asking.
Just in the background, just being like just being content, like just being himself,
just being, you know, an addition to videos.
And people love them so much.
They're like, start a channel, start a channel.
So I asked Braden about it because I wasn't trying to step on toes.
I didn't have that interest.
And I didn't have the capacity to edit the videos.
I'm not a computer person.
And so, you know, everybody's asking all this stuff.
And Braden's like, dude, honestly, you're really good on camera.
You know how to talk.
You are entertaining.
You keep it flowing.
There's a lot of people that try to do YouTube.
like they just fizzle out real quick because they're boring and you know or they can only be so
interested in so much and so i was like yeah but that doesn't really solve the editing
issue and then luke my little brother goes dude do youtube like i've been editing youtube videos all
you know like for the past years which i didn't know he used to make gaming videos and i just
oh really i didn't because yeah luke's a really good editor yeah so we're gonna steal him
so have you has he always like from kind of day one like have you ever dabbled in it
Listen, I barely know how to download the footage onto the computer.
I swear.
I mean, again, I think that's, I should say not.
I think it's awesome that you two are, like, doing your thing, like, together.
Like, I was happy when you called me and we're like, yeah, we're going on a trip and, like, we're both filming and stuff.
Because I've always pushed for you.
I'm like, dude, you, well, I know you are doing it, but I was like, you should too, like, go, go, like, actually go hard, you know?
Because, like you say, you're doing it's just strictly as a hobby.
Because I think you guys both have like a lot of potential.
You know, you could be big.
I guess that's the only thing that I'm scared of is if I go full time,
I'm scared my content's going to seem forced.
Like I need to record.
Honestly, I don't really have a schedule.
I might upload once a week.
I might upload every two weeks.
And I know that sounds terrible when.
I know I'm kind of missing the opportunity a little bit.
There was what you said last night.
There's a happy medium between you.
You're like, okay, so if I go all in, am I going to go all in on side by?
side content. Is that going to be it? And you're like, that's what kind of scares me.
It's like then it's just like driving a side by side going to be my only job, obviously
making YouTube videos. Or I kind of feel once you go all in, you want it to be more than that.
Yeah. And that backs up to like you're saying, oh, you associate me with Braden. And there's
not anything wrong with that. But so after the whole Braden thing happened, he told me to start
a channel. Me and him were kind of bouncing off each other. I mean, that helped. I skyrocketed
10,000 subscribers like that. Like, I don't know.
a month maybe, which most people...
One or two videos. Yeah, one or two videos.
Like that. The first 10,000 is usually the hardest.
You know, I was so thankful to have that kind of bump and start.
But I quickly realized, especially with some of the other small YouTubers around us, you know, that are way smaller,
everybody gets associated with Braden.
And I wanted to make my own name for myself.
And so that's what I quickly, like, Braden was doing the four-wheeler stuff.
I wanted to get in the side-by-side stuff and get myself separated, separate from that and just not...
You definitely did that early enough.
I forget who said it when we met in Florida.
Like, they were like, oh, Kyle's like, he's burned tires off side by side guy.
And they didn't say it like that.
But it was like, yeah.
But they specifically referred to you as like, because you'd love doing donuts on tar.
And just because the X3 just the clip of Kyle endowing the razor or sorry, the X3 is.
Pretty gnarly.
So I had a 2021 K&MX3, and last December I ended up totaling it.
You have the video?
Yeah, I have the video.
What happens when you total something like that?
So I did have, so I had it fully street legal.
So I had full-blown insurance on it.
And I was talking to Ben out front this morning when we were kind of unloading the side-by-sides
and I was getting ready to run to town.
And he was like, you guys drive these things a lot?
And I was like, yeah, I mean, he's like, what do you drive?
I'm like every few days?
And I was like, I mean, probably once a week.
I said a lot of it's off camera, though, because it's, like, our fun thing to go do.
Like, we'll go ride side by sides around the trail, and then I'll stay at Cody.
Like, me and Cody's still very good friends.
We'll go ride side by side.
I'll stay at his house, and we'll go out on the boat the next day because he lives right by the lake.
Like, that's our thing.
And a lot of that never gets recorded.
I think we literally went to Starbucks, got coffee, and then we stopped at Target and got
something.
Miller was kind of cruising behind on the pit bike, and we were just cutting through a field one day,
and we found this little jump, and we were all hitting it one way.
So that's Cody in the gray side by side.
And then I'm on the blue one.
No helmets.
He wasn't.
Exactly.
But we were just street riding that day.
Like it was.
I typically always wear a helmet.
Yeah, I was going to say you usually do.
Unfortunately, I didn't want to like preface it.
But obviously it cats out of the bag.
No helmet.
Scary is frick.
Listen, you saw the jumps we were hitting in Florida.
You know the jumps.
You hit him with you.
You hit a major jumps.
And you know the jumps that you guys hit here.
And I'm looking at this little gap.
I'm like, oh, I got this.
Like I'm just kind of doing the math quick in my head.
I'm like, oh, I got this.
but I didn't think about how short the lip was.
The landing was really short.
The landing was fine.
The gap wasn't huge,
but the lip was way too short,
so it bucked me,
and I nosedived in here.
Just film it.
I was like,
I'm glad he told her to get out, dude.
Holy shit.
Oh, my God, dude.
Cut!
And, uh,
oh.
So that first impact isn't what hurt me.
That I remember that.
It was that second impact upside down.
I got pushed up out of the seat, and I had a seatbelt on, but I didn't have harnesses on.
So I got pushed up out of the seat, and then that second impact launched me backwards,
and I smacked my head on the roll bar.
End up getting 10 staples, knocked out.
You got knocked out?
Oh, yeah.
We ran up to him.
Mac of a head hit there.
Hell of a concussion from that.
Yeah, the rest of this clip is us running up, and Kyle's, like, the side by side's on its side,
and Kyle's just laying there, and, like, blood's literally running out of his head.
And me and her are running over there, were like, oh, he's, he's, he's, he's,
he might be dead.
You were like, we were running up to him.
No, like, it was that loud and that dramatic, like right then and there.
And it was just like, oh, my gosh.
I'd never witness it so, like, so close before.
I went back about four or five days later,
and there was a sizable little pool of blood dried into the.
Yeah, the seaman there.
So where we ride in this clip is actually an abandoned golf course.
So we cruised around on the cart pass and drift around.
That's pretty sick.
It's an awesome place to go.
That's like, I was out of work for all of December.
Last year, I had a very bad concussion from that.
So it was a whole month.
I kind of, and so that's the thing.
I work for myself.
I'm a remodeling contractor.
So I kind of schedule my workout already.
I was waiting for you to say that.
Kyle's been looking around the shop, like, wondering, asking like, like builder questions.
Oh, man.
You definitely know your shit as far as that goes, but it's just funny.
We'll walk into any door.
And he's like, well, if he.
Listen, I'm ready to fix your bathroom door because it was missing me off earlier.
Go ahead. I'm going to. I'm going to. I'm going to find some screws first. You got any of those around?
We did Cormon. Or actually the Dollar General restore over there.
Also, you were helpful last night. We started, oh my gosh. So we thought the razor was fine. It's been great. It has not broken yet.
You should go grab that hub. We should go. Yeah, I should. Until we started jumping it on the track, everything was good. And then, you know, the CVs went out. And then I don't know really what happened.
in this translation, but Evan replaced the CVs and then the bearing just not exist in anymore
and the wheel was latched onto the rig pretty tight and yet you could move the whole thing.
Yeah. So I was showing Ben and Ryan that this morning and so he's like, I think Ben was like,
how does that even happen? And I was like, well, you know, the wheel bearing start to go and you're
like, I will change him soon and then you keep jumping it and then they're like, oh, you know, we should change
it and you're like oh we'll get to it later and you keep going and keep going and eventually
eventually this is what happens yeah so we walk in and mike is jacking this thing up he's like yeah
i think a wheelberry is out and uh i went over to it it was gone yeah i went over to it and wiggled it just a
little bit i was like oh it's not and then wiggle it and then it kept going and i was like you've
taken these lug notes off right and he's like no no everything's tight still yeah it was just
that was the worst part too is that i'm like well we should probably fix a side by side now that
you guys are coming and then it's like you guys
get here and then I'm like literally just jacking it up.
Literally I was jacking.
Yeah, as we were pulling up, he's starting to jack it up.
And then you guys are like, oh, you're just trying to get this fixed.
And you're like, what are you guys doing?
Yeah.
It was the equivalent of like putting a tire on, putting one lug nut on just like a half a thread.
And then like shake the tire or drive with it.
But everything was fully tight.
And, uh, yeah, that was rough.
I was, I asked them, how does this even happen?
And they go, because you guys don't maintenance anything.
you guys are what happened you're the problem you just you're like the uh spider man mean
where everybody's like point yeah you fix it no you fix it that's true and also hey all right
we're gonna have miller editing okay have luke editing well no you got and then we're gonna have
kyle sending sending all of our stuff you guys aren't including the building send in service
we're gonna like slash all our tires so we can't literally yeah so he'll be photography and
And video.
He'll be editing.
And then I'll just be sending and servicing.
And we'll pay you guys in Uncrustible P.B&Js.
Perfect.
Those are my favorite.
Yes, you guys would be dialed.
The Grapins.
You could probably get him with McDonald's.
You could.
We haven't got McDonald's out here.
I think that's, uh, it's sorry, buddy.
So you could build there.
And a roundabout way, obviously, like, it's a good compliment.
I'd be, we'd be a powerhouse.
Oh, my God.
We really would.
Like, so.
Why do you guys just got to live in the middle of nowhere, though?
I know.
That was my next.
question so being you know miller you were a full-time YouTube editor yeah what do we got to do to get
a YouTube editor a full-time guy in here in-house helping us out so that way we can continue to
expand and grow and make more videos and better videos and all that like what do we got to do
oh man I mean I'm right here but no you're trying to do your own thing now yeah I'm trying to do
my own thing and I it's been contemplated in my head like am I ready for that yet I'm just
hitting 90k and I'm like can I afford to like even you know right you basically went from a full time
steady salary yeah too as funny as it is working for a YouTuber yeah and now you're going into the
unsure thing yeah yeah right now I'm like halfway in between like all right am I sending this like
should I just commit or should I just try to find a job and then or like not a job but like
try to find a YouTube channel to edit for and then do stuff on the side till I grow a little bit bigger
until I can justify it.
So I'm like halfway in between both of those right now, but I don't know.
You got to just send it, man.
That's what I think.
I feel like the hardest thing for you guys to find an editor is nobody's ever going
to edit the way that you are seeing and portraying the video in your head before you
ever edit it.
And that's what we're worried about.
That's a big thing because with Braden, my editing style was his videos.
Like that was how he taught me to edit because I was his first editor.
and so that's how I learned to edit
and I could learn how to edit his style
and then when I went to Haley and Chase
I totally had to switch up how I edited
and how I did and everything
and so me and Chase would half videos
and sometimes he'd have to go in and fix my part
just because he edited too
and it wasn't how the way it was.
And it wasn't exactly how he envisioned it in his head
which no problem to me
because I mean I just didn't know
but like you just got to find someone
to learn exactly how you want it.
So then here's a wild fact that most people don't know
I usually don't watch my YouTube videos
until they've been posted for about an hour.
Really?
I swear.
Luke will post them.
Because to me, it's Luke's YouTube channel almost.
You're just the feature on it, huh?
I'm just financing it.
I'm literally just financing the YouTube
and creating the content and making the connections
and he does absolutely all the YouTube.
And that's what he loves.
That's what his envision.
I don't think it's the craziest thing ever.
this is probably an abrasive thing to say
but I don't listen
I mean definitely watch all our videos
try to watch them multiple times
but like I don't listen to our podcast
unless I was like that was really fun
I mean I definitely go back but I can't listen to the full one
because I was like I lived it or I watched it
and I'm the opposite
I listen and watch it before it even goes out to like
for sure and if there's any everything before it goes up
but yeah it's like once it's out
I'm like, I love, like, reading the comments and reminiscing back on it, but then when I watch it, I was like, I don't know why. Yeah, it's just, it's kind of like maybe not ideal, but I definitely go back and watch anything that's super funny. I got to see again.
I guess I probably do the same thing because I love reading the comments. It's honestly my favorite thing to do. And I guess it just shows the trust that I have for what Luke has envisioned for the video. And yeah, there's times where I'm like, I wouldn't have put that clip in. It might look a little embarrassing or it wasn't a good one or this or that. And I'm just like,
I don't care.
Like my mentality towards life is just like,
I don't care what people think.
I'm just,
I'm here.
I'm doing me.
It's a great way to live it.
No,
definitely,
if I had to describe you,
I would describe you that way too.
And I can appreciate that.
And so I think that's another thing that just makes my videos seem so almost
raw in a way where they're not fabricated,
which there's great,
great benefits of having a fabricated video.
You can make them in 20 minutes.
Or it's just wrong.
You know,
you got to film all day.
It's just whatever you're doing during the day.
And then compress it into a 10-minute film,
which I think Luke hates because it's paying the ass to edit.
Yeah, definitely.
And it's a great variety.
I mean, obviously, it's working.
There's definitely ways that it can be improved.
And, you know, my channel could grow significantly.
If I'd hammer down a little bit, I don't know.
Life short, I don't want it.
That's not what you're even trying to do.
Exactly.
There's so many different approaches, like legit, so many.
And there's not really a right or wrong one.
There's some that get more retention.
There's some that get more loved, more of a called audience, more money, but there's no right or wrong way to do it, which is a good and bad thing.
This is really love and hate with all of YouTube and all of videos and all of content creating in general.
Which is really funny for you to say because some of the videos that I either invest a lot of time, a lot of money, or a lot of effort into sometimes fall in their face.
And then I'm so pissed about it.
And I'm just like, that's why I just step back and I don't care.
Like, in a way.
And I see Luke, you know, it's funny because you.
YouTube scale is backwards. It's not a, you know, videos or a one out of ten. And that's a great,
great thing. Most people think one out of ten is, you know, the best thing in the world, but it's,
I'm sorry, the worst thing in the world. It's backwards for YouTube on their, like, rating scale.
It's number one out of the most recent text. Exactly. Exactly. So, you know, Luke will post a video,
maybe it does, you know, eight out of ten, which is at the bottom of the scale. And he's like,
bumming about it and freaking out and just so, like, I just put all this effort and time into it.
Yeah. It's almost harder on the editor, I think. Oh, absolutely. And where it's like, if it does
great. Awesome. I love it. Yeah. It doesn't do
great. You don't really seem to care. I don't
can't. I'm not going to get anything
from getting offended.
You guys have been, so you mentioned
you've been watching our videos for a long time.
So you watched them before you met us
or? So I watched
your, I would say right about the time
I got my Mavericks, about a year and a half ago,
I started watching y'all. And then
so when we first met in Florida,
I'd been watching you guys for probably a
solid year. Miller, hell, you've been watching.
I've been watching. I've been watching. I've been watching. I've been watching.
you know probably since early shifter cart days on like the ice and stuff like that and just
following along like my buddy introduced me or introduced me to the shifter car on ice video a while
back and one of those early videos where y'all had the show that had the old shop like y'all are just
like little stuff like you know doing the cutout on the first x3 that y'all had like just
a whole bunch of old stuff and i just watched you know occasionally for a long time and then
I guess up until I got back back into YouTube, like being into YouTube with
Braden, I was just like, there's every video.
Yeah, yeah.
So it was really cool.
It was really cool to come up here and just be a part of that too.
Yeah.
We were going to answer the comment section questions, this podcast, which we forgot to do
or I don't know what happened.
We didn't do those.
But did you guys have any, I guess, any good questions that may be, being that you
are somewhat outsides.
I mean, we're friends, but we only get to see each other like once, twice a year.
so I was asking Ben kind of before you guys started the podcast
I feel like merch is possibly my next step
and I'm getting like I never wanted to start too early
where I was just like trying to push something where I'm you know
what do you sell 20 units maybe and it's like is it really worth the time
I feel like I can easily have the infrastructure to do it myself
slash kind of do it in-house you know maybe where I'm just
having a shirt's made shipped to me and shipping them back out
but I also really want to come up with a good, like, brand.
I don't want to just slap Kyle Collin on a shirt.
It's just...
I want it like, I love your guys merch.
And there's a handful of other people that I really love their merch
where it's just, you would wear it anywhere.
You don't feel like, like you're saying Haydays,
people at Haydays wear these vulgar shirts
because it's like the only place they can wear it.
Yeah, the time in the place.
I don't want somebody to only wear a Kyle Collin shirt
in a riding park or whatever.
I want somebody to, like, really want to, you know, wear my shirts wherever or whatever.
So you're saying you want to get a brand, not just have, not necessarily feel as merchy.
Which nowadays, I feel like pretty much you have to.
It seems like with the merch, a lot of people are, or brand, you know, when you're a YouTuber
and you're pushing the shirts or whatever, any kind of clothing, seems like everyone's trying to push
some kind of brand, like what you're saying.
I mean, you thinking that is just...
You could do both, though.
You could still start with Kyle.
but then you could also kind of start you know branching into you know maybe you come up with
a good just brand that can stand for something bigger than I guess just your name you know and so
we've got a few ideas and even Miller gave me a really good one that would just fit my style
really well and I guess it's just I need to take that first step I just need to do it see how it goes
and I bet you'd do great dude it's sure it's either going to do great or it's going to show me it's
gonna give me a reality check and just do it yourself get get the merch have have find someone who can
design it mm-hmm get it made and then just ship it out in-house start in-house keep it small
hey micha you want to sign me some shirts no he can't even have time i don't like that time but also
you're trying to steal luke i do too exactly trade off for a week okay we go i do love i mean
seems nice but i got to keep mike i love i mean also the sturdy mindset of being like i don't
want to start too early because if I could get at anyone any advice as far as early channel like
don't start too early on merch it just don't it's not worth it I mean I'm talking like that you got
like little kids that are like I got a thousand I got thousand subscribers on YouTube I'm gonna start
merch I'm like just focus on your video I'm like just keep crushing videos because like it's
common sense yeah no one's gonna want really yeah but yeah so I think you're definitely at a point
where people and another this is like just a thing I've thought about um you know how we do like
our merch jobs, a whole line of stuff.
It's like also, if you've never done merch,
which you, so you've never done anything.
So then that's where you can actually.
I just wear everybody else's merch for all my videos,
which is the fun.
We didn't have to send you some stuff.
I don't think you should do any merch.
Listen, I've sent you a shirt for every day.
I do rep a few of your shirts and I always get comments.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I love the Seaboard.
Okay.
I love the Seaboy shirt.
I love your seat.
You guys, you watch Seaboy's, you know, stuff like that.
So that's right.
But that's when you will be able to get away with,
just quite literally doing your name and definitely make it cool definitely make it something you love
and then you'll be like dang i actually sold a lot of those that's that first influx of
never having done merch and then people wanting it and then from there you can go okay cool you know
i got some sales and people are interested then you're like let's let's think of a brand yeah
although i guess a really hard launch on it all would be would be a good thing too i'd say definitely
just like try to do it right you know and and work you're like definitely
you're going to have to put work in, but it'll be worth it if you can, you know, build something that you're proud of.
True.
Like, if you like it, I'd say right there, then there, then you're good to send it.
Some people, they get like, like, there's steps to everything.
It's like, step A, B, C, you know, and you're definitely at the next step is merch, in my personal opinion.
But, like, you're asking if you're skipping a step, but you're not, in my opinion.
I guess the one thing is I am pretty picky on whose merch I will wear.
You know, like I said, I do get a lot of YouTubers that we've met.
You know, a lot of them give us merch and I've worn it or, you know, I will wear it.
So I'm kind of particular on whose merch I will wear.
So I feel like that makes me pretty particular on my own merch.
Because if I'm going to be wearing it, then I want it to be cool.
Yeah, just make it good.
Just like YouTube videos, you know.
You want to always do the best you can.
That's pretty much my only advice.
But, yeah.
Hell yeah.
I genuinely appreciate having you guys on.
I'm glad you guys are making a little trip.
You guys, like you said, when you first got on, you know how hard it is to plan
something out like that when we did our RV trip
trying to like we literally had every single day planned out
and it was wildly stressful
it's so funny because you're not you're on other people's schedules too
you know like in a sense you're on our schedule
and you're on whoever else you just met up with on their schedule
but I'm really glad you guys come through
make it on the podcast oh yeah
tell a little bit about it yeah
and uh we'll have to get together sometime at another
cletus race or something that would be fun that that would just be kind of like i would say may we're
going to do another road trip and probably hit out west and circle back so i have to come on for
we'll have to come on for an update podcast in may now it's good all right guys well thank you so much
