Starting point is 00:00:34 Is it a Roli? No. Can't afford a Roli? They packing peanut it, us. It got out somehow. We don't know how they found out. You can't say that out loud in public. There's children around.
Starting point is 00:00:48 Did you know that Ken had a birthday party? I didn't. No, I wasn't invited. All right. Welcome back, boys and girls to the Life Wide Open podcast. Yes, we got Ken, Evan, Ryan, and Ben. Thanks for having me, Mike. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:01:04 How are you guys doing? Doing good, brother. How are you doing? So good. Like, Camel pants. I put them on this morning. I'm just like, uh, someone else is probably going to be wearing them, but. No, camo pants, Ryan?
Starting point is 00:01:17 No, I wore a camel sweatshirt. It's hard to mix the camos. You should kind of look like. And I actually thought about ripping that hoodie just to be funny. And just, just dead wood on dead wood. Double camo it. Yeah. Ryan, you are now the outfit of the day guy.
Starting point is 00:01:30 Really? Yeah, like if I post a picture, like putting on a new monosuit, people are just like kind of gay, huh? Outfit of the day. See, you're doing it. You're doing it. You're doing it. The outfit of the days,
Starting point is 00:01:40 isn't it crazy? Like how quickly that happens, you know, like, CJ's just like, Ryan, what's up with the outfit of the day? Snapchat. And now you're just the outfit of the day guy, even unless, you know, I start posting them to my snap story every, every day. Like, this is what I'm wearing today. Would be pretty funny.
Starting point is 00:01:55 So I've been on this, like, Tourette's TikTok. where there's this girl. I think her name is like Bailey, but she has Tourette's, and apparently she's super famous. She got like 12 million followers on TikTok. She used to have like a TLC show or something. Greta was filming me in on it.
Starting point is 00:02:12 But she does Outfit of the Day with her boyfriend, Colin, Colin. Does she yell Colin every time? Yes. It's like one of her triggers. So now I'm on like outfit of the day TikTok because I like, I watch all of hers because she says like the most outlandish shit. Okay. And now I think the algorithm thinks.
Starting point is 00:02:30 that this is what I want to see. You're more on the Tourette side of TikTok instead of the outfit of the day side. Yeah, more so. Yeah. Yeah. Did she have the one have the show on TV on TLC? Like Baylon out loud? It's her.
Starting point is 00:02:41 That's her. Oh, sorry. My ears aren't working today. It's okay. Have you guys seen the Tourette's South Park episode? If you haven't watched it. All right. Anyway, I don't think I have.
Starting point is 00:02:51 It's so funny. It's so good. You got to watch it. Cartman pretends to have Tourette's and then he actually gets Tourette's. Oh, really? Tourette's crazy dude I mean obviously It's terrible for the people that have it
Starting point is 00:03:07 But like the shit that they say And yet they're still just like Running loose In public Loose It's kind of like with Grandpa Ron Yes essentially yeah It's like grandpa you can't
Starting point is 00:03:21 You can't say that out loud in public There's children around Old people always say crazy stuff Yeah they do But like people with Tresti obviously can't help it, right? And they say some of the most vulgar shit you'll ever hear. But I think old people just don't care.
Starting point is 00:03:36 But can they not help it or do they just use that as an excuse so they can say whatever they want? That's fucked up, Ken. That is pretty messed up. That's what they cover in the South Park episode. People with Tourette's? Yeah. I mean, are they just using that as a cover like, oh, I have Tourette's and then they just, that's their, they're cute to just like get away with it.
Starting point is 00:03:54 That's what Donald says, what he says, a bad joke. Yeah. Sorry. I just wonder, like, in the world of like, memes and, TikToks like let's say the sound that's going around TikTok that like FAA! Sound like are they just watching TikToks and then it's going into their head and then they're just putting it out to the world.
Starting point is 00:04:09 I don't know how the brain works dude. I'm pretty dumb already. It's a tough day and age to have Tourette's because like anything could come out. Like anything. You sang something? Yeah. Like you consume something on TikTok and then there's so much memes and funny sounds going on TikToks.
Starting point is 00:04:24 And before you know, you're going six, seven and shit like that. Gosh. You know, I, uh, surf and turf combo? Just speaking of that, Ryan, like, it's a young kids thing, right? And we all had things that we said when we were young. But I volunteer at church, right? And there's preschoolers, so they are five years old. And, like, to me, they're just babies.
Starting point is 00:04:43 Like, they don't really even know how to, like, say a full sentence. And they're over here, like, six, seven. And it's just the weirdest thing. I mean, they're, like, they, to me, they're, like, toddlers. And I'm like, how deep does this go? I think it goes pretty deep. But I think, I think, like, it's finally coming to the point where now it's becoming not cool to say it.
Starting point is 00:05:03 You know, it's like the way if you're saying it. Yeah, you're on. It went too mainstream. The five-year-old's an unc if they're saying it. I agree, though. Now it went Cheeto. Yeah. I also was cracking up the other day when we were filming, we were out on the road,
Starting point is 00:05:15 and we met these guys in the Budweiser truck. They were delivering, they were stoked to meet us. They gave us some energy drinks. And then the last thing they say, and tell Evan, he's Cheeto. You know, that's a joke, but like the Cheeto army is still alive and well. It's good to hear. Yeah. Didn't that kind of feel wrong, Mike, when he was like, you guys want some energy drinks, some product?
Starting point is 00:05:35 And they slid the door open. I was like, I feel like we're robbing a bank right now or something. Like a bank vault. Like a truck. Yeah. Like we can't give you any beer or anything. But we could, yeah, energy drinks or whatever. And they just like ripped open the plastic on the palate and like pulled three energy drinks off and then gave them to us. It's not, we don't need. We can go to the gas station right over there. It felt wrong. And it also felt like I wanted to ask, but I didn't want to put them in an uncle. uncomfortable position, but I was like, yo, whose product is this? Like, is a store going to be like,
Starting point is 00:06:04 yo, why are these cases halfway, like, open? Yeah, like, what? Were we robbed? Yeah, I did feel weird too, but I was like, oh, thanks, dude. Stolen product. They probably just marked it down as like damage.
Starting point is 00:06:19 Yeah, yeah, probably. Ryan got one and then he lost it and he was just blaming me left and right. I was not blaming you. You were very accusatory. I was going to blame. somebody though that's for damn sure i you're like where where is my white what was a white gummy bear ghost or whatever it was a white it was a white gummy did you take it did you throw it away i was like no i just
Starting point is 00:06:39 asked if you drank it because that that that but but yeah i was pretty accused you had the right side of the fridge open and then you like close it run around the whole shop and then you finally open the left side and there it was yeah i was fridge blind it happens every guy has it you look in the fridge where's the ketchup you can't find where's the boiled hard boiled eggs where's the Hard-poiled eggs. No, yeah, where was my white gummy bear? And I couldn't find it. Ken, what about when you lost your wallet in the sprinter van and freaked out on everybody?
Starting point is 00:07:08 Well, I was trying to find my wallet. Okay. And you lost it. I lost it. And I'm, you know, trying to use the, you know, I had an air tag in it. So I was trying to find it. And everyone was like. Which is unbelievable that you couldn't find it.
Starting point is 00:07:19 I know. It's beeping. It beeps. And it brings you to within inches of it. But you're bowling at China shopping in the sprinter van. There's not room to move around. To move around, we got helmets, we got all kinds of stuff in there, and you're just rummaging. I eventually came to the conclusion that it was in my back pocket.
Starting point is 00:07:37 After you swore it, everybody. I was like, be quiet. I'm trying to hear where the beeps coming from because it was like close, but everywhere I went, it was like, it was right behind you. It's always two to three feet away. And I was like, what the fuck is this thing? But how do you, how do you not check your pocket first? It was in your pocket? It was in my back pocket.
Starting point is 00:07:56 You mean where the wallet normally goes? I miss that. Yeah, but normally I'm trying to keep it in the front pocket. Were you wearing your overalls? No, I wasn't. I was wearing some kind of joggers or something. And so that's why you didn't know it was in your back pocket. Usually your pants are so tight.
Starting point is 00:08:12 You know that there's something in your pocket. And everyone else knows because it's skin tight pants and there's a bulge. Like vacuum sealed. His pants are usually vacuum sealed onto his body. No, that was definitely a dumb moment. I was like, wow, I should have just felt back there. And we were really close to helping until you yelled, shut the fuck up. And then all of us went, okay.
Starting point is 00:08:34 And then started talking constantly to make it harder to find. Well, let's transition into another segment here. Ken, it was your birthday yesterday. It was a glorious day. Very nice, very chill. Finally, the most chill birthday I've had in many, many years. That's true. Yeah, we usually do a little something.
Starting point is 00:08:54 We're making an event. God forbid. Your friends celebrate your birthday, Ken. You did catch a Seboy's Instagram post, which is the first birthday post probably in many years that we've done. I really enjoyed that. I was like, we should really post something for Ken's birthday. It's just sledge in it.
Starting point is 00:09:09 We have so many good pictures of you. It's one thing I want to keep doing. I notice like the sickos do it. They just post a bunch of embarrassing pictures of each of the guys in the group. And I loved it of Ken. But Ken, you're continuing on the trend of a bunch of people wishing you have your birthday. And then you just not say it. That is fake news.
Starting point is 00:09:28 You didn't respond to Greta. You didn't respond in our primals group chat or in our CFAM group chat. That's what I thought. I'm pretty sure I said thanks guys and then 15 other people said it. Okay. Let's find out. I'm not seeing any thank yous. This is not a new thing.
Starting point is 00:09:46 This is an every year thing you completely ignore everyone who says. And keep in mind. Did I take, man. Ken, this is tough. Right here. C fam. Happy birthday. Ken, exclamation point, exclamation point, exclamation point.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Heart, heart, heart. From Greta. Damn. No response. Radio silence. And also, Evan had a good point. He goes, you know, maybe Ken just wait until the end of the day. It's a group chat.
Starting point is 00:10:09 It's not quite as personal. He's just going to fire out of thanks everyone. Okay. Which would make sense. All the people that text me individually, I did text back. Okay. When it goes in a group chat, it's kind of like, it gets weird. I saw one that was on red right there.
Starting point is 00:10:20 Uh, Brandon. You're going to have a lot. Oh, Megan. Megan. Megan. And Brandon. I want to know who you did text back. David, New York Jim.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Nice. Brian. The close. Oh, I didn't sex out and fix back. Okay. On red on the fix. Rich. Rich.
Starting point is 00:10:35 Uh, Nick. Well, if you didn't respond to Rich, you'd have been like, oh, you went big time. Oh, yeah. Hey, Mike. Did you know that Ken had a birthday party last night? I didn't. No, I wasn't invited. Ryan, did you know that Ken had a birthday party last night?
Starting point is 00:10:53 I knew Ken had a birthday party. And on Tuesday, I said, Ken, what, are we doing for your birthday this week? And you said, uh, I don't know. And then on Wednesday, I said, what are you doing? You said, uh, maybe just grab some dinner. And now on your birthday, I said, Ken, what are you doing for your birthday? And you said, probably just grabbing some dinner with some friends.
Starting point is 00:11:09 And I went, don't fucking take it. Yeah. And went home and had microwave rice and a protein smoothie. Your dad came. I know. Oh, shit. My dad was invited, but I wasn't. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:22 So it was a different group of friends. They, she like, organized everything. was like, sign out the invite, and she's good friends with Brandy's girlfriend, so. Okay. Yeah, I went to a different gathering last night, and then they're like, oh, I'm surprised you didn't go to Ken's birthday party. It was. And you were like, it's Ken's birthday. And then they're like, oh, should I not have said something?
Starting point is 00:11:44 And I'm like, no, it's fine. I'm sure it was a surprise, surprise birthday, maybe. There was already a lot of people and they just split our table up. Fuck us, Ken. What the hell? Is that supposed to make us feel better? Is that supposed to make us feel better by not being invited? Not being invited to your birthday?
Starting point is 00:12:02 There was already so many people. None of us were invited to Ken's birthday. Is that not weird to anyone else? It was on a Thursday and you were all, you started editing. Thursday. You're still having problems. It was kind of like, ah. Nobody knows that.
Starting point is 00:12:15 Nobody knows that. I had a lot going on, Ken, last night. I would have hated to come. You were having a problem. Ken, whoever hosted your birthday or you should have. the party started at five and nobody knew that there was problems with the video until I texted at 7.30, two and a half hours after his birthday party was done. It actually didn't start until seven and I knew you were still uploading.
Starting point is 00:12:39 So it was kind of like. Okay. So what about Mike and me and Ryan? I didn't organize it. I was told the time and a place and then we just showed up. I did kind of feel bad about that because who organized it did extend an invite. But then when you were so kind of apathetic about me being now, I was like, well, maybe just won't, won't bother you. That you have time with your real friends.
Starting point is 00:13:02 But then I was like, shit, what if it's a fucking surprise? And I just said no to the invite. Yeah. And then, you know, then you were like, oh, damn, where's Ryan and everybody else? Gosh, that is too good. Ken, I just love how mysterious you are year after year. Well, there's no shots. There's no shots forced down my throat last night.
Starting point is 00:13:19 So that was, really? That was a positive. It's an improvement from the last couple years. Anything else forced down? No. Because normally, normally it's, oh, here's a shot. Here's a shot. Oh, take these seven drinks and it gets a little out of hand.
Starting point is 00:13:32 Yeah. I would never do that to you. There's a video of it. There is. That's a good point. I think it was, I don't remember who sent it. Oh, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:41 That was a fun birthday. Standing up in front of the entire restaurant and getting everyone to sing happy birthday. Maybe that's why we don't get invited. Makes sense. It does make sense now. It looked like you had a good time, Ken. It was nice and quiet. CJ and Alex showed up.
Starting point is 00:13:53 Oh, CJ was invited. Salt on the wound. Yeah, so we still got packing peanuts. What? There's one right by kids put over there underneath the bubble. I'll be just walking from my office somewhere and I'll be like, what the heck? I'll pick my feet up and there's a packing peanut on the bottom of it. I even spent a good 20 minutes in here cleaning up like the remains of what was left over.
Starting point is 00:14:13 I think we did a bang up job cleaning everything up. There's just, I mean, yeah, they're everywhere, right? They keep coming out, but just like one at a time. They're in like every nook and cranny of this building. We did a good job. Yeah, so if you guys saw the last video, we had planned on pranking our friend Jake. So we're in this prank war. Right.
Starting point is 00:14:32 So last October at this point, Mike bought 1,000 hot dogs, and then they expired. They were in the back of his truck. So we didn't know what to do with them. So we dropped him off at Jake's doorstep thinking that he could freeze them and do something with him. Well, he proceeded to mulch them up, put him in his dad's hydroceider. and then he came to our compound and he sprayed the entire compound down, all the cars, everything. So our entire compound smells like hot dog water and it has little bits of hot dog everywhere.
Starting point is 00:15:02 Still, it's still like that. It froze like pretty shortly after. And so now when it thaws in the spring, it's going to just be nasty. Yeah, it's going to happen all over again, right? So anyway, we hadn't prank Jake back after that because we were just letting it simmer. We were just like, you know, had our iron in the stove and we were just waiting for the right time to burn them. And we thought it was fun. They thought we were going to strike back within like a week or two.
Starting point is 00:15:26 And we're like, it'd be really funny if we just wait like three months. Yeah, because he was so on edge. And his entire team was on edge. Jake had mentioned multiple times that he just wanted us to prank him so the anxiety of waiting for the prank could be done with. Like he could go back to his normal life and be less worried about like leaving his shop for four hours at a time or going to bed at night. And so we were waiting for the right time to strike. And last week was 20 below out. And we were like, all right, this would be a good time to prank Jake back.
Starting point is 00:16:01 We got Mike's water truck going. We were going to go to Jake's compound and cover all of his vehicles in his parking lot with Mike's water truck water and make it look just like just a big ice cube. A big ice cube. It's like when a fire hydrant breaks in the middle of winter and it shoots all the water up and then whatever. surrounding it, usually vehicles, have like feet of ice on them. That was our goal to do to Jake's truck. It would have been so great. And yeah, so we are planning on doing that.
Starting point is 00:16:30 And the way that we were going to get Jake out of his shop was Jake and his crew are rebuilding Dalton's truck right now or trying to. And so we were going to have Dalton just like go with Jake to his truck and try and figure out like the part situation and like film an update or something like that to get them out of the shop, right? Dalton goes over there and apparently was acting so suspicious that they put two and two together that we were trying to prank them. They figured out that the water truck was trying to get back in operating condition, which wasn't actually, it wasn't working at all. It started on fire in the process,
Starting point is 00:17:07 which is classic. Amazing. Another vehicle. Yeah, yeah. I got cut from the video, but if you use enough ether, it's flammable. It's going to start on fire. So Jake and his team Like call us and they're like Yeah we know what you guys are planning right now Like the gig is up We're like what the fuck So then it pretty much turned into us
Starting point is 00:17:28 Just being like yo How did they figure it out? And we figured Dalton just told them Yeah maybe spilled the beans Spilled the beans because like They're working on Dalton's truck And we're like did he like trade information Or
Starting point is 00:17:43 Like a deal on the train? truck. But it turned out to be a combination of things. We actually still don't entirely know. I think they just put two and two together because they, because you and CJ had told them that you were going to soup the water truck up and surprise me. And then they came over to talk sunglasses and then they're like,
Starting point is 00:18:02 ask me what they're doing with the water truck. I'm like, oh, we're just trying to make like an ice rink out in the parking lot. And they're like, okay. The more information Tony gives, the more I am,
Starting point is 00:18:13 I'm confused about where they're getting the, information from. So anyway, we were like, all right, we're going to pivot. We're going to get them in on the prank. So they think where we're going to start taking Dalton's truck apart. Because then they were like holding Dalton's truck ransom. They were like essentially telling Dalton like, if you let these guys prank us, we're going to dismantle your truck and send you part by part for the next month. And so he was all tweaked out about it. And we were like, okay, let's let's like try and get them on our side. like we're not going to prank them. We're going to prank Dalton instead by actually sending him the parts, right?
Starting point is 00:18:49 A little ruse. So while we were doing that, we're going to get them out of the shop, go to Jakes, and starts pulling Dalton's truck apart. Well, meanwhile, we're actually going to fill Jake's entire house up with packing peanuts. The day before we were going to do that prank, they packing peanuted us. They came to our shop and filled up my office, the podcast studio where we're sitting right now, CJ's, Ken's, Ryan's office, all with packing peanuts. So the night before we were going to do it to Jake, they did it to us.
Starting point is 00:19:18 And the only office they didn't packing peanut was Dalton's. Was Dalton's? And two questions were posed. One, how on earth did they like, no? Was it just coincidence? And then two, did they take our packing peanuts? That takes a little bit of planning. It does.
Starting point is 00:19:33 You got to order those in, get them shipped. It takes a minimum 48 hours to get those. And they left the bags and we checked and Jake did order them. So at this point, it's coincidence. but court ruts too small to have coincidence. How long did we have the peanuts on hand? 10 days? Pretty crazy.
Starting point is 00:19:51 I think it got out somehow. There's no way that's 100%. 100% got out. It's not a coincidence. We still actually do not know. We don't know how they found out. I'm sure we could like really press them and I don't know. Maybe they would tell us, but.
Starting point is 00:20:06 But it's part of the fog of war. It is part of the fog of war. Exactly right, Ryan. Whatever the hell that means. But I think we'll find out. out organically, which will feel a lot better. But we don't know how they figured out our plan. There's a lot of theories.
Starting point is 00:20:21 So we posted the video last night. We said comment who you think the rat is. A lot of fingers are being pointed at Dalton. I would like to think that it wasn't him. Like he wouldn't switch up on his team like that. Could it have been the mailman or like the delivery guy? That's what I was kind of thinking is. I mean, we got a semi load.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Like you line sent an entire semi-truck of packing peanuts. on a Wednesday to Cormront and then call it five days later they sent another half semi load to Cormorant but they'd have to know but they're like what is going on like why are is this little town
Starting point is 00:20:57 of 25 people get enough packing peanuts to drown a city unless the Uline rep told Jake because the Uline rep actually lives right next door to Jake's mom Oh new information unlocked I just, I thought of that last night.
Starting point is 00:21:15 That's a good theory, Ken. That's actually a really good theory. Did the delivery driver ask what all these peanuts before? I wasn't there when it got unloaded, but I'm pretty sure that truck came straight from Wisconsin. I'm not sure at the quantity that Jake ordered where that truck would have come from. He might have got a local truck. Can you imagine if instead of paging peanuts, we got cheese curds?
Starting point is 00:21:39 It was just a mix-up at the Wisconsin factory. That would have been $40,000. I was thinking about that as well. I mean, you guys, you guys obviously saw what the inside of your van looked like after we put Cheetos and cheese puffs in it. I was like, what if we would have fallen out and spend like $10,000 on Cheetos?
Starting point is 00:22:00 Oh, my God, the dust would have been insane. The puffs? Yeah. Oh, puffs, yeah. A little more space. Yeah. Getting in your eye, that would have been bad. Oh, it would ruin everything.
Starting point is 00:22:08 You'd have to burn the shop down and just start over fresh. Jake called himself the preface. Jake called himself the prank war champ of 2026. He left the sign and he said prank war champ of 2026. And we're like, buddy, it's fucking January right now. Just getting started. Yeah. What are you doing, right?
Starting point is 00:22:23 So he called himself the champ and we're like, well, you can't do that. And so we had to like really ramp it up. And also it was a war crime to strike two times in a run.

And then other people in our team that have also talked to other people in the community are like verifying that he was the mole and I'm like, I just don't think he was.
Starting point is 00:28:53 I don't think so either. I do get his concern about his pickup and I. Pack up. I get it. Like he doesn't want like. That's Tourette's. You have Tourette's. He doesn't want Jake and Tony to like just fully disassemble his pickup, throw it on his doorstep and say,
Starting point is 00:29:10 here you go put it back together but it doesn't fully add up and can something that particularly you and i can relate on is that there's unintentional moles like i've ruined shit before all the time and then it's it's like Micah why do you hate us you're a rat you're a mole and i'm like it was an accident same thing happens at can like he slips and it sucks like just CJ's done it before CJ has done it before and so and it it doesn't necessarily it it makes you a mole by definition but not by intention, which is a huge difference. I told Mike about Gavin's stupid three-wheeler and I was a rat for years. Ben finally just doesn't really call me it too much anymore.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Why? He literally just did. That's when you started calling me, Z-Rat. Z-Rat. No, he was because I had to go. I had that horrible experience buying the O-G, the Gavin Trike that he crashed into the ditch. The guy was trying to take me in his car and go for a four-hour drive and stuff. So it was a crazy day.
Starting point is 00:30:05 So then I like told Mike about it. But, yeah, you were pretty upset about it. Which one was that? Which was Gabby? The tow tower. Oh, the mopeds. Can I hit the ditch? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that one.
Starting point is 00:30:17 That thing sucked, too. I actually, I don't remember. I don't remember that. That's like when you started calling me a rat because I told Mike about it. It was like, the surprises on Gavin. Yeah. I mean, I get it as better if Mike didn't know, but I didn't think it was a big deal. The issue with Mike knowing is a lot of times it'll end up on a story.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Yeah, it'll end up. Yeah, exactly. Yeah. or something like I'll fire something in the group chat and it's like yo the guy we're trying to pranks in the group chat that you just sent the chat about like mike you have to unsend this immediately yeah or when we're trying to pick up axel hodges to surprise evan with and then when we're picking axle up mike is on his insta story reposting videos of axel being like yo headed to the sea boys and he's sending them in our group chat that evans in we're like bro
Starting point is 00:31:02 what are you doing yeah and he wears axel pants that day he was throwing a lot of flag True. But also is like our Instagram group chat that Evan could potentially check three times a day or one time in three weeks. Also, Mike, Mike spilled the beans on the rich pickup. I like the one where you're secretly picking up a wheelchair for Ken, but then posted the guy. Yeah, that was probably my worst one. That was crazy. I sent it like to the group chat. I think it's almost better if it's on my story because again, Ken might watch my story two times in one day or once every two weeks or ever. It's like it just doesn't click with you though Mike where you care enough to like think it through
Starting point is 00:31:42 Sometimes you got to wait until the content has already been published before you can post that those those stories or those snapschats Well you just got to save it to your camera roll and then okay this is safe to post that's the interesting thing is it like 99% of time that is what I do It's what we all do but realistically Mike I would actually call it 65% of the time. Disagree. That's less than two-thirds. Still disagree. It's like we're not even done filming something to open up Snapchat. Oh, Mike already posted this on there. That's not true. You guys joke about that happening way more than it actually happens. I think you think it happens less than it actually happens. I think I do it the most out of anyone. Well, yes. You guys joke about it happening way more than it actually happens. Like you guys rip jokes about it all time. The joke
Starting point is 00:32:35 It's not even on my story. I just live streamed the whole thing. It hasn't even happened yet, and it's already on Mike's story. Right. We just to remind you not to, it's like, oh, no, I get that. I mean, it's like, yeah, you make jokes about the thing that someone's always effing up on. It's fair.
Starting point is 00:32:53 But overall, like, I'd say Ken and I have effed up an equal amount of things. Because. Ken is so afraid now where he doesn't even, he doesn't even let himself find things out. Yeah. Because he knows how weak he is at keeping a secret. Like he actually is pretty self-aware about it now where he'll like avoid conversations if it's even in the wind. I'll hear something.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Oh, this is going to be a secret. Okay, let me just turn around and I'll go do something else. I don't even know. It's not even on. It's not a secret that I can't know. It's I don't even trust myself. Well, sometimes it's like I don't need unless I am required to be involved in this. It's like what's the point of even overhearing.
Starting point is 00:33:35 something because it's just all it's going to do is get me riled up or something or it's pretty well-trained for me to get involved until we're filming the video or I have to go pick something up or like arrange something it's just pointless you might as well just stay out of it completely then you're not an accomplice in it as a multi-time offender like that is perfect that is what you and I should be doing you get hit even harder with uh you know discipline as a multi-time offender so like for example I'm I want to say it was the rich thing Like when I everyone was like Micah he was the one you knew because of Micah right and then he's like No it was actually CJ and then that just gets brushed oh it was me damn you know because he doesn't do it as much
Starting point is 00:34:18 What was the other one that CJ blew? Yeah He just literally said it out loud the Axel was it was the Axel? Yeah he heard him driving by and CJ just blew the full load and he's like so how did you know how do you know axel is coming was it micas when he said that no it was CJ And I'm like, thank God. What did CJ Sam say? Oh, I hope Axel doesn't mind the cold. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:40 And I'm like, looks at me. I'm like, and I look at CJ. I was like, CJ, shut the fuck up. What I wanted to say is, Ken, you think, you think that way now. But even like two years ago, if you even heard whisperings, you were like this. You were like a bloodhound. And you're like, what, what's going on? What is it?
Starting point is 00:35:03 What is it? What is it? What is it? What is it? What is it? And you couldn't help yourself but get, like, intervene. Well, because it was probably about him. So it's just like, unless you're directly involved in it, it's, it's just pointless trying to, like, figure something out.
Starting point is 00:35:17 You think that now, but two years ago, you, you literally couldn't help yourself, but, but figure it out. But it's, like, you had to figure it out. It's just growth and, you know, trying to. It's gross. Honestly, it's just way less stressful. You keep growing your beard out, Mike. You'll learn. You'll be crazy.
Starting point is 00:35:33 Crazy personal development on Ken's end. I think the issue is like we're not actors and everything is just a hundred times better. Yeah. If you are genuinely surprised, quite literally. Always, right? So it's for like the benefit of everyone, right? Where if you don't know and you find something out, you're going to be surprised and you're going to be excited about it and you're going to give a good reaction. And then a lot of times if you do find out, you have no reaction because it's not a surprise.
Starting point is 00:36:02 And then it's like we have nothing to work with. Right. I think all of us are on the same page when you see something that's, let's say it's directly for you and you accidentally catch a whiff and you're like, that's my reaction. If I like saw something that was being planned for me, I'm just like, ah, I wish I could delete that out of my brain. Yeah, again, like you said, we're not actors and it's just a hundred times better. And the issue with it now is like there's so many moving parts and I don't even know how many
Starting point is 00:36:32 group chats I have that don't have one of you guys sitting. All of them. Yeah. Like we have like 12 different group chats that just don't have one person in it. Because like that's the person that's getting surprised, right? So it's like when there's so many like cooks in the kitchen though, things just inevitably get spoiled. Damn, I didn't know you guys had a group chat without me.
Starting point is 00:36:52 Yeah. And there's probably four things in the works right now, Ryan, that are related to you that you don't know about that everyone else does. that I'm hoping stay a secret. Fuck. Four? Probably, honestly. And that's why we brought Jack in now that nobody can find out.
Starting point is 00:37:11 Because it's like so many things get spoiled because like I need help planning things. And, you know, that's when you got to get other people involved. But you have to be specific on who you choose to help. Yeah, dude, there's a science to this. There really is. There might be a group chat for a prank for you, Ryan, that I'm not allowed in for good reason. It's like I only got involved in the actual group chat because I had to book his flights and all the everything else. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:36 That's the only reason I figured that out. You didn't tell me who I was booking a flight for until I got is like information. It's like I was thinking of going and seeing a hypnotist because just yesterday I saw something I wasn't supposed to. Ah! I didn't even try. Yeah. I love that. The number of us stress a hypnotist.
Starting point is 00:37:55 We need an in-house hypnotist. There we go. The men in black. Gavin. What about Gavin? buddy the one that came here and had Gavin birthing an alien or was that was good dude that was crazy we were actually talking about that yesterday
Starting point is 00:38:07 I've been trying to get a mind reader to come on the podcast but they don't want to be recorded I think it'd be funny if they're like a fortune teller or whatever you know yeah exactly I'm like no it's cool like you do your thing and we'll just we'll just see and they're like no we don't want to let the secrets of the trade
Starting point is 00:38:23 go so what about Oz the mentalist is that the guy's name yeah but you know there's like performers then there's people who do it for the love of the game. And I think we, we locally only have love of the game. Like the guy, the guy who does the lie detector test, but trying to get lie detector tests as well, no one will fucking do it. Everyone's a pop-up, I'm not going to pop up, not going to do it. Lie detector check on camera. I go, what about this guy? And they go, he's not a part of the real culture. He's not even a certified
Starting point is 00:38:49 electrician or whatever the fuck it is. People are so against it. So you have to have the people in California that are just doing it for acting. Why would they be against it? Because it's fake. lie detectors are fake they're not admissible in court and that's been a thing for a while that has been a thing because it's all based off of like heart rate yeah so you could either be trained to not get excited and like fool it or train yourself to like spike your heart rate and then you would get Gavin's on it like four Celsius deep everything this guy says is just off the charts just says he's having a heart attack right now uh yeah I actually just saw a video about that with like CIA agents.
Starting point is 00:39:28 Like they're trained to be able to pass. Lide detectors, polygraph? Yeah. Thank you. There's something like you can put a tack in your shoe and you just step on it. There is something like all the movies or something have. You imagine? You're about to tell a lie so you just...
Starting point is 00:39:41 I'm sure you can do it a little more. That's why. Because you like raise your heart rate for everyone. You fake the baselines and then like when the actual lies come out and then it's a... It's already faked. Fake the baseline so when the lies come out, nobody knows. that's like if you're like always use eye drops but you're always stone no one will ever know your stone no you no it's you never have to use the eyedrops they think that's just how you look yeah dude i looked up
Starting point is 00:40:06 the other day uh sidney's like how long's the longest someone's ever slept before oh yeah that's interesting and they have never really done any studies but the one showed up then it was like this so-and-so in 1962 slept for eight days straight but they were under hypnotization i'm like eight days is still a long time to be sleeping it's not just coma Yeah, I was like, can you imagine sleeping for eight days? The dream, right, Mike? The dream, actually, dude. Not the dream.
Starting point is 00:40:33 I'd be hungry as hell when I woke up. You'd be like a bear. Evan couldn't make it. Evan's a classic, wake up at three, roomage for a snack, and back to bed. You know what else? Evan, I got to apologize to you for, and I'm also really proud of you. So we have the half pipe in the back of the shop, right? And it's winter.
Starting point is 00:40:50 And we've had some fluctuating temperatures, right? It's been negative 25, and it's been 3. 40 and we're getting snow and it's melting, whatever. And the last three times now, maybe four, Evan has cleared the half pipe of snow. Completely cleared it. Use the torch, got it fully dry. And then he goes, you should probably come over and we should skate it. And then I'm like, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:13 And I just get busy and then it snows again and then it snows more. Like he's cleared it off four times. You guys haven't skated at all? We skated it once for like 10 minutes. And then last, yesterday. there was so much snow. How long did that take you? No,
Starting point is 00:41:30 a half hour. Oh, okay. It's not too bad. But it's not too bad. But it's all cleared off, and I just look at it and I go, it's a shame.
Starting point is 00:41:37 We're not going to skate it. I think we are this time. We're going to have a... We are. I think we have a long stretch of warm weather. We do. It's been interesting. We, uh,
Starting point is 00:41:46 this, this winter's been interesting. But yeah, we have like a stint of like 35 degree days. Yeah, did you see that the other day, Ben? Dalton heard you talking about you were going to drop in and then he, decided he was going to try it and he just did it.
Starting point is 00:41:57 Luckily for you, it doesn't count until it's on the three foot, but he is a step ahead. I didn't know we were in. Yeah, I mean, it happened fast. Competition. The only guy I knew I was in competition with now is Big Ranch. Big Ranch heard that I was going to drop in on the skate ramp. And then he was like, drop it on the skate ramp. I could go and do that right now.
Starting point is 00:42:21 And I was like, what? You did say he used to be more of a street skater, but he thinks he could. get it. Big Ranch was a skater? He was like, I could go and drop in on that, on that ramp right now. And I was like, let's make this a thing. Let's do a little bit. And I thought that it was going to just fall by the wayside.
Starting point is 00:42:36 And I was never going to actually hear anything about Big Ranch skateboarding ever again. So we get home from our trip the other night. And him and Evan got into the road beers on the way home and the Sprinter van. And I'm transferring footage up here. And I just hear like laughing down below. Gackling. And I'm like, what the hell is going on? You know, it's like 11 o'clock.
Starting point is 00:42:55 I walk back down there and Big Ranch is skating around. Him and Evan are skating around in the bay, in the Pine Bay. Holy shit. I was like, what the fuck is going on right now? He never would have guessed that he skated in his life. He might be too important to let skate.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Yeah. He got a family. I was like Big Ridge, how many beers did you have on the way home that you got home and said, I need to ride that. He said, well, we were trying to finish the case and we haven't done, we haven't found the bottom yet. We did before he left.
Starting point is 00:43:24 And how did his form? look. There actually wasn't too much skating. I think. Yeah, he just knocked, he knocked the cobwebs off and then, you know, let that sit and then come back to it, you know, like an evolution. You didn't want to go too big, you know, in the first day back. It was a classic mistake. The liquid courage for that type of stuff, like, I just remember having a point in my life where I'm like, I gotta stop skating when I'm drunk. But you like, you want to. I didn't even quit drinking. Yeah, Evan, he does. He's just like, nah, you know. If he's, if he's, if he's, if he's, you know, if he's, if he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's, he's. He had six beers at the golf course. He lets me know, not skating a night. What about the other night? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:44:01 No, no, no. I was going to, no, it's the happy me. If I have 12 beers at the course, I'm not skating. Six? But I knew you were going to Zorba's later. Attempt a skateboard. Oh, it's pocket. Yes, the pocket thing.
Starting point is 00:44:12 But, uh, you to get loose. It's just interesting, like Big Ranch with no beers, much safer to be skating, much, much safer, but wouldn't be skating at all if he was on no beers. Ryan said it. I don't know if we should be letting Big Ranch skate. Yeah. But we should let him drop in once or twice. Don't keep a man from accomplishing his dreams, Ben.
Starting point is 00:44:30 The thing about skateboarding, though, is like, it's not if you fall. It's when you fall. And what makes a good skateboarder is how good you are at crashing. It's how good you are at falling. Big Ranch got bodied on the e-bike. He was fine. I mean, he sat up against the building for a couple hours and- banged up for a couple of weeks, but he ate it.
Starting point is 00:44:48 He did eat it. Big Ranch is just super tough. He's just like that old man's strength and old-man. toughness, yeah. We just got done with a little snowmobile trip, and Evan did have a great point. We were kind of like, oh, Big Ranch, you sore? Because he came with us and was awesome.
Starting point is 00:45:03 And he's like, eh, not really. I feel like this all the time. And that, to your point, like, when we're skateboarding and falling, like, Evan and I kind of just feel a little bit sore all the time. No, I think we were talking about Ken. Yeah. Who at dinner was, like, in a whole different world. My back hurts and this and that.
Starting point is 00:45:19 And I'm like, do you think he actually hurts worse than us? Or is he just never used to any, like, physical. inconvenience where like I wake up every morning and I fucking hurt but it's just been that way forever forever but like some people are just like maybe not used to that I don't know I don't like for me it's like I'm fine and then like the second we stopped moving and like sat down for dinner right my back just like locked up and I was like I got to go lay down like it was it was fine when we kept moving and then it's just you stop and it's just bad I wish I could like convey or like just show how when we were out to eat we're all just like laughing and
Starting point is 00:45:55 Dude, you're just in the corner. Like, oh. He's just like he just found out of his dog died or something. Yeah, he was. Yeah, and we were weird. He's just like,
Starting point is 00:46:04 playing music and you look. I mean, yeah, okay. Like, we are all locked in and guys like, we're putting on the coat and we're getting out of here.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Pop up the video of him in the sprinter van. Oh, that was so funny. Ha, ha ha ha. I love a Mike's geared up. Yeah. No, I was just trying to, like, sit there and not sit in an uncomfortable position because my neck was killing me.
Starting point is 00:46:38 Look, you make out uncomfortable right there, bro. I do feel bad. Like, it's not fun when your back fucking hurts, that's for sure. Imagine how I felt, I guess, without spoiling too much. Yeah, imagine how Ben felt. We put in a pretty good shift on snowmobiles that were not optimal or long range. And I think everyone was pretty sore. but I had a stint of riding two-up with Ken.
Starting point is 00:47:03 You'll see in the video as to why. And the thing about riding a snowmobile by yourself is you see bumps coming and you can like use your legs to anticipate the bump. And then you just like raise yourself up off the seat. You let the snowmobile take the brunt of the impact, right? And you're your legs to kind of take a little bit of it. You're hovering. And then when it's smooth, you can sit back down.
Starting point is 00:47:26 Well, when you don't know when that bump is coming because you have a, a large man in front of you and you're just holding onto them for dear life because you're hanging off the back of the seat. The only thing helping the impacts of the bumps is your spine compressing a little bit every time. Every single time. When the two of you were on that sled, we're talking full compression, no suspension. And then when you go into those bumps with double the weight that should be on the sled, it actually amplifies it. I was thinking about you too. Yeah, your spine was the only suspension. I did. feel bad for Ken though because I was you know it's trying to watch the best that I could and when I
Starting point is 00:48:04 would see a bump coming up I'm just like using Ken as the suspension of like holding on to him on to him hoping that he also lifts for this bump coming like a monkey on his back that hopefully Ken stands up and and there was many times where like we're flying along this this trailer this ditch line right and it's like bump after bump after bump right so you can you can only like for like the first one or two until the snowmobile meets you at some point of coming up and I was like yeah what the fuck slow down boom boom boom pause bounce on it bounce on it so yeah that was rough but it'll it'll make more sense when you guys see the video see it in a couple weeks here oh god good times though eh um mike what's that oh yeah yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:48:59 Read it to the mic, Ben. Oh, my God. This is so classic. Relax. Who cares? I'm already late. And then it's all of the numbers on the watch that are supposed to go around. Just jumbled at the bottom.
Starting point is 00:49:12 Is it a roly? No. Can't afford a roly. Are you kidding me? It looks like it. Well, it says relax, not Rolex. Mike is like, okay. Dude, I about had a heart attack.
Starting point is 00:49:22 I go, bro, that's got to be so limited edition. You got to have a fucking swipe around your wrist here. Oh, this is super sick, though. Isn't that funny? Yeah, I love this. I think Rolex made a watch like that. Really? With all the numbers at the bottom that said, who cares?
Starting point is 00:49:35 I'm already late. Sick. I saw it poking. I was like, holy shit. I just thought it was too. Holy. Too fitting. But then I also, I thought that came across as a little, I'm like, I'm not that
Starting point is 00:49:47 careless. Like, I actually do care. So then on the back, you can get an engraving. And I said, just kidding. I do care. I'll try to be on time next time. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:56 That's amazing. I found one that it is. A Rolex. Oh, really? $13,300. That's a cool goal for me to have. Like, I didn't realize that was real. So to me, there's two different knockoff Rolexes.
Starting point is 00:50:09 There's like, let's say you get a GMT. Like, you can get a watch that looks like a Rolex, but they're just trying to look like a Rolex. They're not trying to be a knockoff Rolex. And then there's obviously watches that look like a Rolex and then also say Rolex that aren't Rolex. But they had a few watches that look just like Rolexes, but they say relax.
Starting point is 00:50:27 So I wanted to get this one since I, I didn't think that Rolex made a watch like that, but I guess they do. There's so many counterfeit watches. There's a lot. But that's what I'm kind of getting at. So is this would, this would be considered counterfeit? No. Yeah, this is kind of just a fun.
Starting point is 00:50:40 No. There's so many like counterfeit Rolex watches. Right. That if you are a watch expert, you don't even know that. Really? Dude, it is insane how well they have just knocked them off. And what are the price points on those? I'm curious.
Starting point is 00:50:57 I mean, not the under box. Well, there's like, they call them super fakes. Those are like one to two thousand. Okay. And it's like you gotta get like microscopes and look at it. Yeah, where you have to take it apart. You actually have to take these watches apart to see the movements. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:12 To see if it's fake or not. Even some of these movements are like getting so good. Really, really close. That just seems insane to me. Again, spending $200 on the one that looks like it, sure. But spending $2,000 on the one that actually. is conning people to think. I know a guy.
Starting point is 00:51:32 I thought he had a bunch of different Rolexes. And then I was talking to his kid and he's like, oh, no, they're all fake. Oh, what the fuck? Dirty. Like his kid rat in the mouth was like, ooh, that is rough to hear, but. Yeah, that is solely for like flex culture.
Starting point is 00:51:45 Like spending a little bit extra for it, that's almost like you're trying to convince yourself. Yeah. I mean, you can get a full collection for like 10 grand where you can't even buy one real Rolex for 10 grand. All in the eye of the beholder. I get it, but also like what's the point? Like you're trying to like aspire to buy something,
Starting point is 00:52:04 not just buy the full collection. It's kind of a weird thought process to me. Yeah, to flex. This podcast is brought to you by Rula. A new year feels like a reset. You want to feel better, do better. So you ask the questions, how do I take better care of myself this year?

Starting point is 00:58:03 Thanks, Stash. I don't even know like what statement I'm trying to make with watches. I just genuinely find it fun. I have like the one expensive watch Sydney got for my wedding. The rest of them are like under $300 and they get lots of compliments and that's as far as it needs to go. But do they say, oh, is that a 80? And then you're like, no, it's this. And then, ah.
Starting point is 00:58:28 I mean, sometimes. But then I do think it's funny when I'm wearing the Casio mod, like, it's a Casio watch that someone else modded that I bought for 300 bucks. It's like, Mike's got an AP. And I'm like, bro. Like, it's not even like, they thought I had an AP. It's like, no, I don't have an AP. I didn't spend 60K on a watch.
Starting point is 00:58:48 And then I guess it's actually not obvious because like, Money Mike persona. That's the thing. That's the thing. is when people are like, oh, Mike's got, of course he has an AP. Yeah. That just would be insane. Buy another car for that.
Starting point is 00:58:59 You know what I'm saying? Yeah. I saw an interesting theory on TikTok, and it was that the side of your car that your gas tank is on is whether it's a girl car or a guy car. Really? Completely disagree. That's zippers.
Starting point is 00:59:13 You're thinking of zippers. Zippers is also as well. But they say it started when there would be cars that women would drive because they put it on the passenger side because the man would get out and fill the gas. Like Alonters Malibu, passenger side. My Corvette, driver's side. But it does get a little...
Starting point is 00:59:32 Because if it's a woman's car, the man gets out of the passenger seat, which I personally think he should be driving the car. I think so too. But the man gets out of the passenger seat, pumps gas. I think a lot more, like, domestic cars have it on the driver's side and a lot more like imports have it on the passenger seat.
Starting point is 00:59:50 On the other side, that's the side the steering wheels on in the country it's made? Not necessarily. What is the science behind where they put the gas tank? Probably wherever there's room. You know, I always thought cars were on the passenger side, but then I realize it's not.
Starting point is 01:00:06 Trucks, driver's side. That's a man's car. Should just be on the driver's side if possible. But there's some engineering restraints, I'm sure. I like that theory. I've been looking. Now when I look at a car, I go, is that a man's car or a woman's car? Brian's just so, it's like he's really loving a car and he's conflicted because it's on the.
Starting point is 01:00:25 Yeah. Oh, it's on the passenger side. Can't. Can't do her. So besides for a Malibu though, like does that theory. Yeah, it's been a whole, though. Has that been a passenger? But that's because it's an import like Ken said, because the steering wheels normally on the other side.
Starting point is 01:00:40 Your focus, have you even put gas on that car yet? It's on the passenger. Girl car. My Broncos on the driver's side. It is. What side's the Jeep on? Drivers. So yeah, that just debunks it.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Yeah, that debunks it right there. But Mike did hit a deer. So I'm taking after Ryan. How'd that feel? I didn't like it. No, it's not fun at all. And I would blame myself. I was sending a Snapchat to Gavin.
Starting point is 01:01:07 He was wondering how... Shred Aide. He is somehow always involved in a crash. Oh, the wrench. He was like wondering about how some of the builds worked out throughout the day when we filmed, but he was gone. I was like, just giving him an update.
Starting point is 01:01:21 And I like was just watching it back and press send and boom. Oh. Like, you know, in that situation, had I not been on my phone sending him a Snapchat, I would have probably slowed down enough to either do less damage or not hit it at all. How did the Jeep fare? It's all right. It's one of those ones like, I don't think I want to make a claim. I notice some more dense today.
Starting point is 01:01:42 You know the when you look at it. Yeah, you start looking more. The hood is cocked and the door is dented. Oh, sure. The funniest part was when I turned back, I won't show this because it's just kind of gross. But I turned back to see if the deer was dead or not. You know, if it's not, you go take care of it. You go dispatch it yourself.
Starting point is 01:02:01 And then I get to town. I've been driving all over town, go out to eat. And then I realize there's blood all on the side of the car all over the wheels. Oh, yeah, it's dead. You did a number on that thing. Yeah. I was surprised the way you sent a text. Oh, I hit a deer, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 01:02:18 and then you said like I saw the car and I was like oh that looks a lot better than I would have expected you smoke a deer and all that It wasn't horrible fender grill light bumper door It's funny that well that that's when you start getting fender door like that's when it really you know you take out a bumper and some front stuff Just before I did that it was funny you were like Mike if you're gonna drive the Jeep it'd be cool to like soup it up I know you love like not leaving shit stuff And so then I of course after I hit the deer I started looking for bumpers and I realized I just don't really like modded jeeps. I actually, I prefer the way it looks like stock.
Starting point is 01:02:54 Unless you're going to go crazy and make it like this overlanding sick rig, I think putting like an aftermarket bumper on a jeeps with a big bull bar or whatever is just pointless. They have like 100 different bumpers for these things and I maybe like one. Maybe this was God's way of saying that you shouldn't be driving a Jeep. But maybe that's just,
Starting point is 01:03:16 Hummer? Maybe that's just you conveying that you don't want me to drive a Jeep. I don't care what you drive. I don't think God does either. Oh, okay. Just wait now, Mike, if you have one more deer, then people start going, don't let him drive the company vehicles. He's going to hit a deer.
Starting point is 01:03:33 He hit two deer in the last month. You hit a one. Mike hit two deer in the last month. I missed. You know, I literally hit the mirror. Like, that'd be, that's like, because you were driving a nimble car. Yeah, in the Corvette. But the deer are getting dumber.
Starting point is 01:03:46 Like, CJ was driving the sprinter van back from our latest video, and we had to lock it up everything flying multiple times because there was so many deer that we almost hit. And like someone would look out the front window and sure shit, there's a deer standing in the middle of the road. Like, they were close. What are the odds that the two brothers of the group are just clocking deer? I mean, it used to be Ken.
Starting point is 01:04:09 It's got a run in the family, huh? My take is, is all the land around here that used to be hunting land, they're putting sheds up on, which we're partially guilty of. But all the hunting land, nobody fucking hunts around here anymore. So all the deer that used to get clobbered by guns, nobody's hunting,
Starting point is 01:04:25 and now they're just running around committing suicide in the front of my car. Get your kids in hunter's safety and kill deer, so I don't have to do it with my car. What if you put... I'll put a kid through hunter safety. If you need money to go through hunter safety,
Starting point is 01:04:37 I'll then mo you. How much is it? Yep. I don't know, probably a hundred bucks. 100 bucks. I'll then moe you 100 bucks to get you through hunter safety
Starting point is 01:04:42 if you hunt in Becker County. What if you just put... There you go. But, geez. Like a steel bumper on your Hummer and then just plow over every single one of them. I don't need to change my life for a dumb animal. Well, you can just pull them yourself for the Hummer either.
Starting point is 01:04:53 I think there is actually something to be said about that. Yeah. Yeah. That's a pretty good point. At least more around here. If you look at even like where our farm is, that whole field like somebody would have been out there hunting that shit 10 years ago. And then now all the deer fuck around and reproduce and get stupider.
Starting point is 01:05:10 All the smart ones are hiding up in the Northwoods getting bigger. And all the stupid ones are. They're staying down here running at cars. I'll tell you what. There's one less deer after last night. You took out one, too? No. No.
Starting point is 01:05:22 No. No, I'm joking. Oh. There was one person in front of me. I'm driving Ben's Raptor. I'm coming back from Ottoman. And this guy's like right in front of me and he's going like really slow. Yeah, watching for deer.
Starting point is 01:05:34 It's super annoying. 50. Yeah. And he's got this brand new Chevy truck. You know it's got the power. Was it sick? No, it was a brand new Chevy truck. Sounds pretty sick.
Starting point is 01:05:45 Anyways, hits this deer and he goes, Oh, boom, boom, boom, boom. It was like slow motion in the air. Oh, wow. It lands. And the dude just drives off and leaves it in the middle of the road. He was probably pissed. It's usually the case.
Starting point is 01:05:59 Yeah, you're so pissed. You're like, don't even care. And so then I went and I drug it in the, in the woods or whatever, but. That was nice. Yeah. Dude, people are dumb. Deer are dumb. Oh, deer are dumb.
Starting point is 01:06:09 Yeah, people are dumb for hitting deer? Why would you just leave it in the road for someone else to hit? I do it. You shouldn't do. You shouldn't do that. Normally you're so pissed off. You're more like, oh, this freaking deer just hit my car. And you're just so flustered about that.
Starting point is 01:06:21 You just drive off. You keep driving. Don't look at your car. Luckily for me, both mine bounced back in the ditch. That Hummer actually vaporized them. There was nothing to clean up. He needed another little rainstorm. That was all the evidence was gone.
Starting point is 01:06:36 My immediate thought after doing it was, man, I wish I had my truck. Yeah, I think we ate that. That's more of the point I guess I was trying to make. Mike, but you driving a Jeep is you got a pretty sick truck. But then the thought after that was, man, I'm so glad I was driving a SUV or, you know. Your truck would have vaporized it. But then I'm like, what if I would have been driving my viper? That would have sucked out underneath that.
Starting point is 01:07:03 That thing is so low. Well, you're just going to take out all the deer in the winter. So when the roads are nice in the summer, there's no deer to hit. Yeah, that's how it works. Everyone that makes the drive from our lakes, area to the Fargo Moorhead, Fargo, North Dakota area. We take the road called the downer road and the guys at the body shop are like, oh, yeah, yeah, if you drive that road every day, it's not a matter of if, it's when,
Starting point is 01:07:27 which is so true. You do clock a lot more miles, so. Yeah, you do. In doing so. Well, it just scares me. I don't know. Like, I'm going to, it's not going to be the last year I hit. I just hope it's in the truck next time.
Starting point is 01:07:39 Yeah, deer are dumb. I'm just now I'm all pissed off. You see the video about a deer, like, broke the window to a bank and was just running around inside now they're robbing banks yeah i have now they're robbing banks that one was pretty funny it just like flies to the window well it's like lock them up it's the body cam of a cop like crawling through the window of a bank because they're thinking that all this bank's like a robbery's in progress and it's just a deer just sprinting around the lobby of this bank did he get to shoot it uh no they wrangled it and got it back
Starting point is 01:08:11 outside is that real or is that AI no it was like that's that I thought it was before AI. It's happened. You can never tell these days, but it looked real. Hot topic, but like all the Epstein files, like I don't know what to believe because there's so much that can just be fake. Yeah. There's a website called, this is kind of crazy that someone made this.
Starting point is 01:08:33 It's called jmail. And you go and they coded it like a Gmail website. And you can go on to it and like search all of his emails like you're in his Gmail. And you can search people and you can go to pictures, It's pretty impressive that someone that they made it. But yeah, jmail.world. But there's what, like three million documents? Holy crap.
Starting point is 01:08:53 So much. I think they've released three and a half. And someone had to go in and black them all out. Well, they missed quite a bit. Originally they redacted like so much shit. And now this new wave that came out, there's a lot less that's redacted. They also. That it's less that it's like 30% and what's not out isn't going to come out.
Starting point is 01:09:12 Like now they've fulfilled or whatever. That was 30% of it. Man, that guy was a busy fucking guy. I thought it was like over 10 million. Like if there were 3 million pages or documents, it was like 10 million. So they also did like the worst job possible of like censoring this stuff. So you could just highlight it, copy and paste and then see what was underneath that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:32 Oh, yeah. Did you see they were talking about Pizza Gate? Pizza Gate back on? That was a big thing in when we were in like middle school. It's confirmed that Pizza Gate was real. Was real. It was before. And when you Google Pizza Gate, they were.
Starting point is 01:09:45 were saying it's like a debunked theory and there's like 11,000 references to pizza. It's like, did you enjoy that pizza last night? Mmm, it was sure cute. Yes, the pizza party last night was so fun and yummy. Yeah. I guess the thing that I've taken away from reading a lot of the emails is like a lot of them seem like damn near illiterate. What do they do?
Starting point is 01:10:07 There's a lot of code code. Yeah, they're just talking dumb. It looks like a Chinese owner's manual. Now that's a good read. We need Evan to get in there. He's the only one that can decry for it. I did see this. They think that there's these two guys are the...
Starting point is 01:10:22 Oh, yeah. I don't know. That one is a good example of something I don't know is true. That there's a theory going around that the Island Boys are Jeffrey Epstein's... Island boys. Missedroon sons. Island boy.
Starting point is 01:10:34 So, and if that were true, it'd be wild. There's so many theories that I see a new one every single day where it's hard to figure out. which ones are real and which ones are fake. Or which ones you should pursue. The internet is just running with. Essentially, you can say or do whatever you want at this point because there's so many documents that unless you're really deep in the weeds of it,
Starting point is 01:10:59 how are people going to debunk it? I guess besides for that website, I didn't know about that website. I have to check it out. But then did you guys, there just came out as of yesterday that his Fortnite and he was playing Rocket League, like his account is active. You know, they found his activation emails, and that account was in his emails, and that account is still being played today in Israel. It's just what they say.
Starting point is 01:11:23 Really? Yeah. As of like a couple weeks ago, he was playing Rocket League. What? Or somebody was. Supposedly. Somebody was with that account. From Israel.
Starting point is 01:11:32 That's where the IP was. I wonder if he's got good skins on Fortnite. Yeah, I don't know, dude. There's so much. You know he's playing a Sabrina Carpenter. You know he's running around in that. Ken, do you think that he killed himself? No.
Starting point is 01:11:46 So I don't know if you guys saw there was a theory that, oh, he got swapped out with a body double. And then in that last little trove of documents, there was they tracked down the guy that made like an anonymous 4chan or Reddit post or something along those lines. They were able to prove that he actually did. And that guy did work for the jail that, you know, where Epstein was at.
Starting point is 01:12:06 And what did this guy say, though? He was like, oh, there was some suspicious activity in Epstein's area. there was a guy that got brought in in a wheelchair and then, you know, whatever and then the next morning he's dead. Like a van that wasn't on the schedule. It's all very suspicious. So do you think that he killed himself,
Starting point is 01:12:26 was murdered, or is still alive living in Israel? He did not. He absolutely did not kill himself. He might have been swapped out or he's like, or he got murdered. Or he's playing Rocket League. I think he either got murdered or they,
Starting point is 01:12:41 swapped it out with a body double. Because there was another picture of like his ear. It's for sure one of those. His ear looks a little funny in the death picture too. And like again, you go down all the rabbit holes, but they didn't even look close to the same when they look at the ear features and the nose features. Yeah, I think he's still alive somewhere. I saw a theory where they were just talking about on the autopsy,
Starting point is 01:13:03 the bones that usually break when you hang yourself, you like, there has to be so much like brute force or impact of like, you know, doing it. Sometimes one bone is broken. Rarely two bones are broken, but in this case, three bones were broken, which is like damn near impossible when you're paying yourself. But that's where I wonder, was it even him? Right. Bro, there's so much crazy shit out there.
Starting point is 01:13:33 Think about how much Tom Foolery and secrecy are going on between this freaking 11 of us around here that I don't even know about. Like, think about the rest of the world, brother. It just brings me back to, like, why. I know this is before a lot of, like, not weird shit, sorry. I better, I better clarify that. Not weird shit, but just like the prank,
Starting point is 01:13:51 just the pranks we're working on here. Yeah. You know, like, yeah, exactly. Normal secrets. But sorry, continue, Mike. So it was a time in emails, like, 2013, let's say. It was a time of emails, right? But, like, didn't they know that all of these are like,
Starting point is 01:14:06 they just stay existing? Well, why is you using Gmail? Why isn't using, like, a private email? genuine question. I listened to this deal yesterday. They were saying that every email that he would send it had like disclaimer on it. Like you're supposed to destroy it. And like if it ever gets used it any other way or whatever.
Starting point is 01:14:23 Okay. They had a, yeah, a footing on all the emails. Yeah. It's prosecuted if this email leaves the intended. That's just any email with a lawyer has that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Weird. So I'm just,
Starting point is 01:14:35 doesn't hold up. Is there even any like messaging platforms that exist today that, wouldn't document everything in some sort of way on some server. Like I'm genuinely curious. Like if you like talk back and forth on WhatsApp and they needed to pull up those conversations from seven years ago, do they exist? Because on email they for sure do. Like WhatsApp and Telegram, they're supposedly encrypted.
Starting point is 01:14:59 Right. And they can't access it from their server side without the encryption key. But how do you actually know that's the truth and not just like their marketing? Right. What have you been seen about it, F? You're pretty deep into these areas of things. Not really too much as obviously the random stuff that are like pop up on Instagram. People reposting crazy stuff.
Starting point is 01:15:20 But I listened to like one podcast yesterday, like an hour podcast. Nothing that we didn't just talk about. Yeah. What do you think? I think he's probably still alive. Really? Yeah. But I'm on the same page of like who knows like some of the stuff.
Starting point is 01:15:33 Like now you can just write the most outlandish thing because it probably was a lot of outlandish shit happening. And then you can write stuff. It's like what really happened? I don't know. It's so easy for any kid that has Photoshop to make an email and then just post to the world. I mean, just chat.
Starting point is 01:15:48 Nobody does their due diligence to see if it's real or not. And then it runs wild. And then it is interesting if someone were to post something blatantly fake, but no one was believing it was fake. And then you're in the comment saying this isn't real. Everyone's like, why are you defending him? Right. Yeah, you can't defend them.
Starting point is 01:16:06 And that's not the point, but it's more the point of like just not believing. everything you see. Yeah, this is definitely a lot bigger than left and right. I think there needs to be some arrests. And I don't really care which side it's on. And also, it was interesting. Evan just posed, he's like, dude, like, what if, you know,
Starting point is 01:16:22 if it ever gets out that, like, he's alive somewhere, like, you know, confirmed. Like, there's going to be, like, a worldwide manhunt. But it's like, how can someone hide for this long when you're world, worldly known? So then I said, I was like, if you have a shitload of money. Been hiding? He's been hiding since 2019. Like the only way would be like a ton of people are protecting you. That would be the only way.
Starting point is 01:16:49 There's no one. But think about how many people he was associated with that have a reason to like keep that that under wraps. There's so many people affiliated with him where it's like they have every reason to either kill him or make sure he's silenced. And that's where I understand like just killing him. That's why you can't rule that out, yeah. Right.
Starting point is 01:17:12 Like for how many powerful and, you know, politicians and celebrities and how many people were, like, compromised by things that he knew? Then you wonder, was he such an asset to certain super mega powerful rich people that if someone else that was also associated with him was like, I got to take him out, would then they be targeting that person that took him out? To protect him? Yeah, being like, why did you take him out? We needed him.
Starting point is 01:17:38 Because he's like an Israeli spy. Such an asset to them in whatever ways. Pretty crazy. You got to wonder, like, is there things that the world will just never find out? Is this one of them? But it's like, this is one of those things that people have not moved on from, where obviously it's so crazy in the things that he did justify people not moving on from. But, like, in this day and age, the internet just like one thing happens.
Starting point is 01:18:08 this week and then next everyone forgets about it. And this doesn't seem to be one of those things. Like you go into like any politicians comment section on X thread or on an Instagram post and that's like all the comments. Top comments, right? And it's been like that for a long time. Can I see the government and higher ups just like never giving people what they want? Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:18:33 Moon landing 9-11. There's plenty of like controversial things that someone. Someone's got the answer to, but they're still just, no one knows the answer. Never finds the way of giving it up. But also, like, say they do just release everything and then there's always going to be that group of people or it's like there's something else back there that's just buried evidence. I mean, you never truly know, like, what is the truth?
Starting point is 01:18:55 Like, is there truly some stuff that's just, we'll never see the light of day? Or is this genuinely everything? There's no way that this is everything. There's no way. It's everything. Oh, absolutely not. With that, though, like Evan said, like this is all that's being really. least like does it end here like do people now move on well when is this is this is the release of
Starting point is 01:19:14 of the of the files when it does it end end at this point and then people are like okay well we didn't get our answers so we're going to just leave it well that's what i'm curious because like the clintons are like they agreed to testify they were about to be held in contempt which would basically mean that they could arrest them for not testifying and so then on the last day before they were held in contempt they agreed to testify but it's behind closed doors is nothing will happen and then yeah nothing nothing i'll ever call it happened yeah and everyone's always like oh as soon as this happens like it'll all be exposed like i feel like there's been so many instances like that in so many different you know events or or like hot topics that never come to light a day
Starting point is 01:19:56 i keep thinking about hot topic of course every time you say that i do too of course you want to get back there and shopping right some black trousers with a few chains yeah you know what i just wonder if we'll ever get the full story on is shred 80 and spennie in australia i've been caught dude i've been calling trying to get updates i know and just wonder what's going on gavin's running around in that swim shirt all week i know i'm just so intrigued i just can't even imagine what those two are up to well i told i told him the like spenny should just put on a live stream and follow gavin around australia and see what this dude does yeah i mean i could just see him ordering copy yeah oh boy you Oh, good day.
Starting point is 01:20:38 I was under the impression that after you were like double digits, like 10 years old, you're not supposed to wear a swim shirt. Yeah, I just am really curious what his reasoning is, I guess. I mean, it's Australia. It's summer down there. The song is pretty strong. I'll tell you why. Yeah, this dude's a ginger and he...
Starting point is 01:20:57 Yeah, he is a red hat. He burns if he's indoors. Yeah. The son's probably intense in Australia, right? This guy. It's summer down there. He looks like when you bring a little kid to the beach, Like little kids just like lose all their shit, right?
Starting point is 01:21:09 So the hat that he has on has a strap. Has a strap with a clip on it. And then, uh, you got the sunglasses that also have the band around the back. Crokees. He can't lose the sunglasses. Like he just looks like you dressed your three year old son to bring to the beach. I love that guy. I FaceTimed him last night.
Starting point is 01:21:29 Spenny was actually nice enough to just flip the camera around and just let me watch him in the wild. What a treat. Yeah, it was. Did you screen record it? Of course. Looks like I can. pretty good time. So Spenny's brother lives in Australia.
Starting point is 01:21:41 So they're visiting him and riding. And it's just so funny that he brought Gavin, a little side mission, but a pretty big side mission, actually. He's ripping two wheels down there. Yeah. Down under. Dude, I think we got to go to Australia, though.
Starting point is 01:21:54 100%. Spenny was like, bro, come. And I was like, oh, fuck, I'm just a little busy. Yeah, they were like, dude, just come this weekend. I was like, isn't it like a 24-hour flight? Yeah, bro. They were in the plane for 15 hours, Great. That sounds like literal hell.
Starting point is 01:22:10 It is crazy. Like the way Gavin posts when they're getting on, he's like, yeah, we're on the plane. It's going to be a long 18 hour flight. And then post basically the next day and was like, can you believe we're still on the plane? I played Xbox for a few hours, slept, woke up, went to the gym and they were still on a plane. We got a pretty deep roster of fans in Australia, though. So I think if we do go to Australia someday, we'd be able to have a pretty good time. This is actually the perfect time.
Starting point is 01:22:38 How many people have hit us up. Like, hey, if you ever make it to Australia, hit me up, mate. Yeah, I might. Yeah, let me just pull it up here. This is a perfect time for a little game I have. Okay. You're getting deep in those notes. Holy crap.
Starting point is 01:22:52 Oh, brother, I've got so many notes. All right. A little game called Blind Ranking are top 10 subscriber locations. Country? By country. By country. This is for the main channel. Okay.
Starting point is 01:23:05 So I'm going to give you a country and you put it in which position you think. Got it. Who's doing it? Are we like just kind of everybody as a group? And then I'm going to take a note of it here for you. All right. Let's go Australia. Where do you think Australia ranks?
Starting point is 01:23:22 Three to ten. Three. I agree. Three or four. I'm going to say four. I guess we all have to agree here, boys. It's three. All right.
Starting point is 01:23:31 We go with three. We're going to go a little, a little different one. India. That's got to be 10. Nine or ten. Let's go eight. India's got a ton of people. It's got a lot of people.
Starting point is 01:23:43 But they don't speak English. Should we go nine? Yeah, let's go nine. Canada. Two. Two. Germany. I'd say five or six.
Starting point is 01:23:53 Yeah, I'd say five or six. I'm going to say six. Six then. Man, they love beer over there. They still don't keep it cold. And the cylindrical meat. What is up with that warm beer? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:24:03 That's the way they do it. That's not how they. They drink it so fast, they don't have time to get it cold. That's funny. Okay, Brazil. I think that could be a top six one, too. What do we guess the other one? We put Germany at six.
Starting point is 01:24:16 You got to think UK and New Zealand are going to be like probably four or five. I think eight. Okay, Ken, you brought up the UK. Where do you think the UK's at? You have one, four, five, seven, ten left. Four, four, four. Sweden. Oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:24:34 I would have put Sweden at four. So we'll put it at five. Seven. Five. Can you just put United States as number one? Okay. We'll just, we'll put the U.S.
Starting point is 01:24:41 is number one. You're right. Can you imagine if it wasn't? Number one. The Philippines. That's got to be number 10. Yeah, call it 10.
Starting point is 01:24:50 What are we missing? There's only one left. And there's last one is Indonesia. Oh, right. You're going to stick that one at number seven. Seven. All right.
Starting point is 01:24:58 Yeah, our list. New Zealand is not on the list. New Zealand is not on the list. Oh. Surprising. All right. So how do we do? All righty, let's pull it up.
Starting point is 01:25:07 Number one. All right. United States. Nice. Very nice. Second. You guys ranked at number eight. Second is India.
Starting point is 01:25:15 What? Wow. That's fucking crazy. They really do have so many people that they are number two. That must just be shorts because the view duration is. That could be. Oh, that is. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:25:26 That is. Okay. Shorts. Exclude shorts. This is why we do wish YouTube would split shorts, analytics and long form content. Well, yeah. but not clearly for this. Then you were right on the right track.
Starting point is 01:25:38 Canada number three. Then you had... Still wrong, though. Yep. Then you had Australia. Australia is all the way down in number five. Australia and UK, we had switched around. We were close with, yeah, Australia and UK.
Starting point is 01:25:51 And then, yeah, Indonesia, Brazil, Philippines, Germany. Sweden last. But I guess it's got to be a puppy. But again, to Ken's point, the view duration is... Yep, you can tell where they're watching... So they're watching the full... videos in Sweden, but Germany looks like just shorts, Philippines, Brazil, Indonesia, just shorts, Australia, they're obviously watching long form. UK, they are, Canada, they are, India, they are not.
Starting point is 01:26:14 I will say we do a great job of with the shorts is you don't need to know English to watch Seaboy's TV shorts, especially. I mean, there's just so many viral shorts, right? So I think that it's going to get to a point, though, where you go on YouTube and it's all just dubbed into your language, just captions. I've seen that on a few videos. I can't remember if it's either Instagram or YouTube. It'll automatically change the voice into whatever your native language is. Yeah, I think Instagram is starting to do that more.
Starting point is 01:26:46 But we've looked into it for YouTube. And it's a service that you have to pay for. And you have to pay for like every single minute, right? So if we have a 50 minute video, it's a lot more expensive. But they actually go in and like the AI your mouth. And they have like voice actors. So it matches the words that you're, saying you're right Ryan but like think of SORA now they yeah now Saur's good enough they just take your
Starting point is 01:27:09 voice and no it's I've seen I forget what platform is on's they don't change any of the the video side of it but they'll automatically translate the audio side of it right but we're just saying they take it one step further and they they sink the mouth it actually works pretty good I think yeah you're saying like YouTube will eventually just I think integrate that I think it will yeah I think it'll be integrated one day but like that's the beauty of I guess the content that we make is I think that it's going to be applicable to the entire world of like people that like, you know, action sports and automotive content where as soon as they can somewhat understand what we're saying, it's a pretty universal thing, right? But like a lot of creators are pretty
Starting point is 01:27:51 like niche focus to the country that you live in, right? Especially if it's like a political or like in, I don't know. Well, that's why. Or anything like that that's kind of like dependent on the area that you're in. Right. That's why we never really could watch KSI because we couldn't understand him. It's just speaking English, but UK. But I mean, you know, that's pretty cool to apply to the rest of the world. But actually what sparked this challenge for me was, which how many do you guys get right?
Starting point is 01:28:18 I was going to, I was going to have the podcast. One, bro. I think we got one, right. Damn, I was going to have the podcast donate $1,000 to each one of you based on how many you got right. But then I was going to have, if you got them wrong, you would lose money. Yeah, we would be. Yeah, we would have been cooked.
Starting point is 01:28:32 $9,000. Oh, go figure. We don't make any money from this podcast, Ryan Zeland. That walks away with money. You're welcome. We got a freebie right. That's it. What started this is I looked at our total views.
Starting point is 01:28:44 Two billion views, boys. Oh, yeah. Two billion views on the channel. That's pretty awesome. Wow. We just rolled over it. Pretty cool. I mean, we rolled over by 43 million views, which is a fuck ton of views.
Starting point is 01:28:56 But I mean, two billion. I think what's really cool, though, is like a good chunk of those views come from long form. Yeah, which is of just a much better trophy. Yeah. Yeah, it's a lot easier to get short form views. And then it's even easier to get short form views that convert to subscribers. But like, I mean, we can look at our stat, but I'm assuming like 90 some percent of our
Starting point is 01:29:20 subscribers come from long form. Yep. Just what you want. Yeah. Same with the views. So that's pretty awesome. Good stuff, boys. Great stuff.
Starting point is 01:29:28 Absolutely. We're going to go see CJ had an appointment with. with his knife connoisseur. So he's a knife dealer. His arms dealer. T-X-Kiboy. Ah. Ooh.
Starting point is 01:29:42 I'm just going to beep that. All right. People can think. What'd you beep? What he said or what he did? Well, maybe I'll put that noise. He's even got the mic closer to it.
Starting point is 01:29:54 I don't know what you're talking about. Your loose hinder is what we are. Why? I mean, yeah. Should we? That's safe. Or at least just say it.
Starting point is 01:30:03 Fuck it. We'll get the podcast subscribers a heads up. And what will we give them a little insight to the next giveaway that's going live on Thursday night at 7 o'clock with a new drop? Two paint match TRXs. They're so sick. Fresh wheels on them. You get entered at CBOysTV.com. $5 spent. Gets you an entry.
Starting point is 01:30:20 As always. Check it out. TRX's two separate winners. And how much we spent on paint matching? Like $30,000. $25,000 on paint matching these things. So there's damn. near another TRX, not really.
Starting point is 01:30:33 But either way, a lot of added value with the paint matching because TRX is come in like this two tone and you guys, when you see them, you'll love them. Yeah, they look a lot better. Yeah. So, yeah, stay tuned for that. We got a very hellcat video on Thursday to go along with it.
