Do you guys see Connie West got his Twitter deleted? So, wait, Elon put him back in and then booted him back out. Yeah, man, the guy can't get out of his own way. He, like, tweeted a picture of a swastika. Okay. Yeah, I mean, it's like, bro, what are you doing? What did you expect? Dude, I just saw the funniest video of him the other day.

So he's going on about how Jews are in ownership of all this, blah, blah, but he's going on. Basically just a guy asked him, probably like a reporter, asked him, Hey, Kanye, would you ever think back about, like, taking back some of the statements you've recently said in the last couple months, like, just a few things. He's like, you know, kind of shaking his head, not really say anything. And just a few of the, like, really big ones. And then he literally just goes, and he names off, I can't remember. He just names off like five huge companies. I can't remember the names.

And he's like, all the red are the, like, CEOs of these companies that are Jewish. And it was like 90% of the probably like 300 people on the board were in red. And that's all he said. He just didn't, he just doubles down. I guess I still haven't quite figured out what the problem with that is. To be on. I'm sure basically what it was is it's just business and he doesn't like how the business is going. And he's just like, they're Jewish and trying to blame that. Like he's trying to correlate maybe just like not being satisfied with the way things are going with.

I think he's trying to uncover something way bigger. Oh, they say Kanye's crazy, but they never say he's lying. But yeah, still, then he goes and does the post-as-wasical. And he's like, yeah, no, Hitler had good things. He had the right. Yeah, that was on Alex Jones. Exactly. And I saw a barris do a thing.

And they're like, if Alex Jones is looking like the sane one in the room, you've got a problem. I think even Alex Jones was kind of like, whoa, I mean, I wouldn't quite say that. He backed out a little bit. He gave him like three outs, too. He's like, well, no, not everything. And then Connie goes, yeah. but a lot of some things are really good. I saw a video of Kanye talking to his team saying like,

never again will you be able to get out of billion dollar contracts because of tweets? That's the thing. Thank God nobody got hurt along the way. And then he was laughing and his team was laughing. And then I was like, wait, hold up. So he was just saying all that to get out of his contracts. And then he goes and says stuff like that. It's like, wait.

Wait, now what? No, hold up. Yeah, like he's doubling down. He's doubling down on it. He's trying to just sweep up any loose ends there that possibly could get him back into the contract. You're like, nope, nope, keep this guy out. I thought the best part, though, was that Kanye

kind of like sent a jab at Elon Musk after his post got taken down because his post got taken down before he got his whole account banned. Like he's gone. He posted this picture of Elon Musk getting like hosed down on the back of his yacht. It's pretty unflattering picture. and he said, will this get taken down too? And then he said, and then Elon Musk tweeted back, no, this is fine.

I think it's just so cool how like, Elon Musk is the gatekeeper now. He's like a mediator. Yeah, I don't know. I just love that. Basically, yeah, like, I just love when he responds to tweets, just like a normal guy. Dude, he responds to everything. He's so active on there for how busy he is.

I saw Casey Nystad tweeted at him and Elon, like, favored it. He might have even responded. But I know for a fact he favored it. Like he's just out there running it. You got the time to do that. But also a lot of the responses are like pretty witty. Yeah. You got to take time to think of that too.

I'm sure he doesn't take much time. But that's awesome. All right. Well, I don't know if we really like introduced ourselves. I'm Micah. This is Ben. This is CJ. This is Ryan.

This is Life Wide Open podcast. I had this whole intro plan, dude. I did too. I was going to say, welcome back. Yeah, double intro. Welcome back primals to the life. Oh, yeah, I know. That's super funny.

Our boy Liver King's been in the news this week. Yeah, it has not been looking good. And he posted an apology last night, but it was, I haven't seen that. I don't believe that you can do a YouTube apology and sound sincere. Almost ever. It seems like none of them. He did a full on YouTube apology. Yeah, dude.

And he did hit it in one take, which I wasn't impressed. No cuts. He was kind of reading. He's a great talker. It was a lot of talking. But pretty much the whole time, he did kind of end up justifying what he did. Hold on. Okay, for the people listening that are aware of who Liver King is, we've talked about him a couple times on the podcast. That's why, that's why this is funny for us

because we've been speculating over the last couple months. But anyway, just give like a brief little run through who he is. So this Liver King is this guy who just blew up in the last year or so. And he's noticeably jacked, almost unrealistically jacked. But he promotes living this ancestral lifestyle and the nine tenants of our ancestors or something like that and he's just promoting like a lifestyle of wellness which I think is really good but he is denied that he's been doing steroids and he's he's just jacked he walks around no shirt on he'll throw a picture he wears uh or he he says you got to eat liver with like every meal hence the liver liver king lots of other raw meats like ridiculous meals you know and he posts all the time like

He's an excellent Instagrammer, basically. Yeah. I mean, for just starting social media a year ago, dude, what he's done is smart, dude, he's very smart. Yeah. So that's kind of what I wanted to get into. A few weeks ago or probably months already, you kind of hypothesized that he was a bit and that he maybe was who he was, but he just cranked it up to 11 and then went out and

tried to become internet famous to sell his brands. Yeah. And basically, he has a supplement company that. Yes, and basically that is exactly what he did. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. Well, there's actually, but I think a lot of people. I feel like everyone probably thought there's, yeah. He never really said it was all.

He said, no, no, he said, no, he said, a few times he got cornered into it. And he even admitted that he said no. So for the viewer, if you didn't, so basically he admitted that he has been doing steroids, which he had been denying the whole time. And the issue with it, no one cares if you do steroids. But the issue was it with it was that he was denying it and implying it, and implying that if you eat like me, eat all this, like healthy, you know, only meat and

liver and all this. And then also if you can't do that, if you take my supplements, which I have for sale here, you can live this lifestyle like him. And, you know, basically get jacked and look like that. And that was the issue is that, you know, he kind of deceived those people. At the same time, I feel like, dude, I mean, I guess not everyone can look at that and be like, that's unreal. Like you can't be like that. without being on steroids. But I do want to say, I still like him. I like him for the entertainment factor.

Yeah. I always knew he was on steroids. And I always kind of was like, I mean, it's a little bit of a kind of lame that he's selling these supplements and some people aren't smart enough to catch on. Like, just because you take these supplements, you're not, and work out,

you're not going to look like him. It's impossible, you know? But what he is doing is he's preaching like, you know, working out, working hard. being a man and that's what he did talk about in that in that video which I think is great I feel like you have to be so extraordinary to get anybody's attention that that's why he did that he had to go the extra mile so when you look at him you truly go I can't believe I'm seeing this with my eyes no you look at what he did do you have a problem with what he did

my only problem with it is that so he actually like he didn't admit to it an email got leaked that basically exposed both things ironically exposed both things in one of This is before he was Liver King, but he had an email called Liverking at ancestral supplements.com. And he's emailing, I'm assuming the supplier of who makes his products now, maybe still makes him. But he was saying that he was taking, that he wanted to be an influencer. Here's my plan. He had it all planned out, right? But he told them how much steroids he was taking.

And it is from another bodybuilder, YouTube, we was talking about this, was an insane amount. really an insane amount of steroids it's like 11 grand a month wasn't it yeah he was spending 10 to 15 thousand dollars on steroids and he he's even saying like yep so i'm taking he was taking um five different steroids for like over the course of three years before that and then a couple more that he just started adding on and he's like yep i think i'm going to start doubling up on this he's basically taking three times what a major bodybuilder would be taking in a week from what i well the breakdown was anyway my only problem with it is is that he was taking so much to look like that.

He's like, I'm 43. I got to look like that. He's taking so much. Like, it wasn't even just a little bit. So not only is it unachievable to look like that, it really is almost impossible. Impossible. Yeah.

Did he say anything about the implants? No, he addressed that. He addressed the implants and he said that he has not done any implants or ab cutting or anything like that. Or no kind of like surgeries or, yeah. I don't know. I just think, and I think I might have actually said this on a previous podcast.

I think it was an extremely calculated and well-executed business model, business plan. And they did it perfectly besides for that little thing, which honestly was conning. I think it was conning. But I do still like that he talks about getting outside, working out, spending time with your family, and like pretty respectable things that, I don't know, just as admirable in a man. Man, I'll tell you what. lying about the steroids. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that aside.

But the fact that he can eat, and I don't know if he's eating all of it, but the fact that he can eat, if you've had liver, I had liver the other day, she was cooked and it had onions in it. And it was like something that you'd eat as a meal. It was terrible. It was awful. I got it from a restaurant and it was awful. So I can't imagine eating that raw.

Granted, I don't know if he eats quite a bit of it. Just like the little amounts he does eat on camera, pretty impressive. cow tongues pretty impressive the testicles dude how do you just bite into a testicle like that dude it's insane all right so i you'd have been good steroids is one thing yeah steroids is one thing and lying about it but the fact that he can eat the things that he is is unbelievable it's and i tip my hat to him yeah he's not a complete phony try liver if you've had if you've never had liver try it like order that a restaurant have a new respect for the guy because i had one piece and I was like, oh my God, this is bad.

This is terrible. At the end of the day, though, the cool thing about him and basically every other person that you watch on the internet is that you can take it in as little or as much as you want. Like, I probably see one to five percent of the content he puts out. It's because that's all I choose to watch. So like at the end of the day, he like did that, but he's still entertaining. How much you want to take it into your life and act that way. Right, that too.

Yeah, it's all up to you. same thing as like Andrew Tate. Like you can take every word he says. Or like it's the, you know, most important thing. Or you can take it with a grain of salt and just kind of laugh at it. Yeah, or honestly, anyone. Like freaking the internet preachers, anyone. Yeah.

Any, anyone. Pretty much anything that anyone ever says, take it with a grain of salt. You never know. Speaking of us saying things. That's what we do here. That is what we've been up to. Okay. So Spotify came out with their year-end rap saying, like, if you're a Spotify subscriber,

you can see what you've listened to for podcasts and music and who's your top artist and everything like that. Well, on the other end of things, as a creator on Spotify, they give us the information like from our end of it. So I've got a couple of the stats here, which I thought were really cool. And these are just for Spotify, not including YouTube, not including Apple. Yeah, just Spotify. Okay.

I didn't even know like that. We were popping, like, on Spotify at all. Do you guys listen on Spotify usually or YouTube? I listen on YouTube. I like, like, when we watch, when we do ours, I watch it because I like to see how we. Any podcasts that I watch or listen to, I watch on YouTube. Okay. Okay, so anyway, we were heard in 102 countries.

Wow. That's crazy. Wow. Your podcast was in the top 5% most shared globally. You're the top 1% of most followed podcast. We are? No shit. Yeah.

Really? That's pretty good. Yeah. To be in like the top 1% of the most watched on YouTube, that's like an insane stat. Yeah. That's pretty good. You're a top 10 podcast for 63,000 fans. You're a top five podcast for 59,000 fans.

And you're the number one podcast for 35,000 fans. That. Oh, that means 35,000 people. This is their go-to. That's so awesome. On Spotify, too. Yeah. Just Spotify.

I'm in YouTube. Love our listeners, but we do YouTube as well. And then you can see all the things that we put up on this. That's crazy, dude. You know, it's so weird is, like, you say those stats. And, you know, and even if you look at, like, the billboards for Spotify, I believe we're, like, we're ranked on, like, the top 100 podcast, which I don't know why. Maybe it's just, like, I don't, like, an insane confidence.

Four different charts. I know that. I guess I just, I feel like we're so. small. Maybe it's because I compare my, I compare us to like full send podcasts and like, you know, these massive, massive podcast. But like when you, when you say that, I'm like, wow, I can't believe that, you know, relative to others, you know, like, because in my mind, it's like, this is a rather small podcast and I love it. But yeah, I mean, it is crazy. And also like, we put a lot of effort into the podcast, but in respect to kind of everything else that we do day to day, it really probably

only gets like 5% of our time and obviously Ryan's a little bit more because he he edits the podcast and he kills it but you know we don't we don't give it a whole lot of attention we legit just sit down here and just start talking shit and we legitimately talk all day long so it's like it's impressive that we've been able to accomplish that yeah that's what that was my take all those numbers really surprised me because i'm like not not trying to like we're not undermining ourselves but i think we sit down and do exactly what we do all day And it feels very, very chill and natural. I mean, people have commented, that's what they get.

They just get us. So since they were like, sick, another one in the books. Like, we enjoy doing this. And then when we see the stats, we're like, wait, people are actually listening to it. I was surprised when we were on the top billboard or whatever, the top 50 or whatever. Because it just doesn't, we're like, that. Yeah, I couldn't believe that. I was awesome.

Thanks, guys. Yeah, it's amazing. So thank you to our fans, dude. I guess. Yeah, seriously. I want to piggyback off that. That's how I was going to, show of the podcast was like really kind of heartfelt here i just was like you know in one of those

states last night and i want to say i i love you guys to death us yes and and everyone and can of course love the viewers too what about af and everyone and ab and i know like all the boys and everyone that were connected to like you guys continue to impress me more and more every day than ever Like it blows my mind I'm gonna start crying Yeah everyone does Like everyone does better every day You know maybe not actually if you look

Day to day you know what I mean But like sometimes people are sick Sometimes we're off but I mean It's like crazy that we just get better and better And so I love everything that we're doing Yeah It's like Hey we love you too bro

I just couldn't even think of anything better in life I love our fans, our supporters, and I feel like we're, we said it before, just steamrolling forward just on the start of things. But it's just also interesting, it's like I might go two days without speaking to Ryan, not for any particular reason, any of you. But it's like you just were right back at it or vice, and I might be pissing one of you off or one of you might be pissing me off, but it's like, it's like being in like a really good relationship.

It's like being a really good relationship where you just know, even if like you're both pissed at each other, you just know that it's all good. It's all good and it's always felt like that, but more like that than ever. Not that we've had any more issues than ever, but that's the best part. Yeah. Like knowing the next morning, like you can still come to anyone with whatever. Yeah, I think everyone is just kind of like finding their place more than ever. and just like doubling down and just like really trying to perfect what we do.

Dude, I agree. I love you guys. And I was thinking about that too when I was listening to the Full Sand podcast coming out here. They were in this huge heated argument going back and forth with each other. And like it was like this whole thing where I don't even know if you guys listen to it. But these two guys like basically they're a part of this YouTube group, but they mostly just work together. They're like, they're like, if you don't need anything, you don't talk and, you know, it was like this, it was pretty heated. And I was thinking to myself, I was like, God, it doesn't even seem like we even really get in arguments about anything anymore, which I think has came with our age, like, our maturity of it.

Like, we'll maybe have a dispute on how something should be done, but it's never like heated or like blood boiling. And like, we're all, we've all gotten a lot more cooler headed in our age, in our age, yeah. And also even maybe just a better perspective. on things, which goes to show because you were just, you know, what you were just saying. Like, I mean, it's just, I don't know, it's been, it's been fun. Coming up on seven years. That's crazy, you know?

It's all good until somebody spray paints without opening the door, you know? I did open the door. It just got a little fumie up here. Literally five minutes before we started the podcast, Ryan was spray painting his new vehicle. Maybe it's out yet. Maybe it is. I don't want to spoil it. And, uh, I'm upstairs.

Dude, it smells like fucking spray paint in my office. The C.J. Same. Micah. It's fine. It doesn't smell mine. For no reason. Just, right. Cracked the fucking door.

I did have the door cracked. And then I opened them more and then they were too open and then I closed them. And then they weren't open enough. We're screaming from all of our offices. Yeah. Dude, so people are probably like spray painting his new car. Yeah, I know.

It doesn't make a lot of sense. It'll make a lot more. You want to just say it actually, I guess give the podcast. I can. I was, You guys can get the inside, look. I bought a Hummer. And Hummer H2.

Dude, legendary. Girl. It's a chicken nugget, cinder block on wheels. Dude, it's cinderblock for sure. I remember people like, didn't Ryan, like, want a Hummer when I told him that you got one? I'm like, yeah, he really been looking. I've won a new Hummer. Not a Hummer.

2005 Hummer. The classic, what I think of when I think of a Hummer. Not the truck Hummer, like, just the square box. It's beautiful. You've officially. etched yourself, I shouldn't say etch, but you are officially living the lifestyle of a true celebrity in 2005. In the year 2005, dude, like every rapper had a hummer, Bamargera had a hummer. Like, if you were just like, I don't know, they're just sick, dude.

NBA player? How does it feel when you're driving it? Like, what kind of feeling does it give you? Do you feel like, man, this is a cool car or like, holy shit, I could hit any car or anything on the side of the road and I would run it over like like what do you feel behind that steering wheel uh both funny enough I was driving home and there was a couple deer and they weren't getting out of the way and I kind of just like started driving towards them I was like let's do let's see what happens I mean he got out of the way and I didn't actually run over it on purpose but uh yeah you feel like in a giant vehicle you feel really safe so that's good like I don't feel like because in my cabriolet which is tiny I feel like I'm going to get run over by everything the cabriolet in the Hummer it's on

It's already on 37s. It does suck. Occasionally you'll click through like the information screen and the miles per gallon will come up. And I've been averaging like anywhere from seven to nine. Wow. Which is pretty bad. It's not a lot worse than your TRX was though. What did you get in your TRX? Probably 12. Like six. 16 on like a good day. Oh, holy shit. That's right. Yeah. So I mean, the only. I thought you got like that for some reason. That's insane. The only upside to that then, there's not truly like not really an upside, but the car was much cheaper than your TRX. Like you do have a little bit of money left over for fuel. Yeah. Much cheap. Dude, he spent 10 grand on it. You literally cannot buy a vehicle that drives down the road and it's not a safety hazard to you and everyone else for 10 grand anymore. Yeah.

Maybe the car market is starting to come back down. It is. But like the fact that you were able to pick that up for 10 grand, I think it's a semi-reique vehicle. So, I mean, it kind of was. So this won't make it in any video so we can talk about it. But literally the first day I drive it, drive it here, turn it off. And I just left the keys in the ignition. Go to start it and it wouldn't start.

And I was like, crap, I killed the battery or maybe it's a bad battery, whatever. So I jump it, starts, drive it to my girlfriend's apartment, which is in DL and it's right behind in O'Reilly's. So I kind of know I'm like, I'm probably going to have to jump this thing in the morning. So I was like, I'm going to park over by O'Reilly's so then they can help take care of it in the morning. I had it all planned out. Nice. But I was hoping that when I took the keys out of the ignition, it wouldn't die. So it wasn't like a guaranteed dead vehicle.

Anyway, we'd get there. Sure enough, I go out in the morning, it won't start. And it's just the starter's clicking. And I'm like, oh, man, must be a battery. We go get the jump pack. Doesn't start it. We go get someone's truck. Won't jump start.

Oh, so it's brick. Yeah. And I'm like, dang. And he goes, it sounds like the starter. I was like, it's not the starter. Put a new battery in Doesn't start And then they were like

It's definitely the starter So I go in My buddy Lauren in there He's a beauty At O'Rise Takes care of me And he goes I got this guy

We call him Spaz Spaz will come over And he'll change the starter For you So I got a new starter Put in Right in the O'Reilly parking lot For 60 bucks

Too good That's service Yeah We gotta hire this guy I know 60 bucks In the freezing cold It was cooler than shit out last

yesterday. Yeah. So he drives over to O'Reilly's, parks next to the thing, pops the wheel off, replaces the starter, right from O'Reilly's. Did you get Spaz's number?

No, I didn't actually. Lauren brokered the deal. Why do they call him Spaz? I don't know. I didn't ask. But he was like, don't want to ask.

He's good shit. He's good shit. Don't worry about the Spaz thing. I was like, don't worry about the bad thing. But do not come when he's here. Yeah, I didn't even have to beat him.

I just gave Lauren the keys. I was like, here you go. Do you? Yeah. have at it. That might be part of the reason why when you said, okay, I'll take it. And the guy's selling it goes, really? I did call him and I was like, hey, man, this happened. Is there any like, you know, did you ever have any issues with it? Any warranty from a corner store auto salesman? Yeah. And so he goes,

no, when I walked out, it started right up. Like I just put a new battery in it last year. I didn't even have to jump it when I started like I'm sorry that the starter went on he's like I'll stand behind it I'll pay for the starter I'll I'll fix it if you want all that and I was like nah it's fine I got spas working out yeah I got spas no I think that guy was good shit otherwise he wouldn't have tried to rip you off at all that's awesome man that is funny I put the day after you buy it I did think I was like god damn it I should have just spent a little more and gotten like a reliable vehicle but it can truly happen anything and hopefully this hummer goes for a million miles on how okay so

We did the math the other day. If you were to drive it 100 or what's it at right now? 250. All right. So if you were to drive it 750,000 more miles to a million miles, how much would you spend in gas? We're going to, I mean, if we did it nicely in 10, we got 10 miles per gallon. That would be 75,000 gallons of gas.

And we'll say 350 for gas. That would be $262,000 to drive his home. Holy, that's just the gas. Just the gas. Not anything that happens along the way. All the road mountain doves and stuff like that. Exactly. I'm just glad you got it, though, honestly.

Because I've always wanted one, and now I'll just drive it a little bit when you let me, and I'll get that fixed. Also, yours looks sick. I feel like if you get just a new set of wheels that are a little bit lower offset, so there's some poke, it's going to look badass. I think I'm going to wrap it too. A little buff job. Oh, rapid.

Yeah, yeah. He's going to be sick. I brought it to Shining Armour, buddy, and I was like, hey, here it is. And he's like, I can fix this, but he's like all the big scratches. Like, we can fill him in. We can do whatever, but he's like, you're still going to see it. And I was like, I'd rather spend the two and a half grand on a wrap as opposed to paying him to level three correct. Yeah, I guess it would be like the same price.

What color? I was thinking Matt Black. I feel like that's just, it's maybe a little too standard, but it would look good. It'd look really good. And then because you have the gloss black window tint. the gloss black wheels. I wish they still made a gas hummer. Yeah.

And even if it just looked like that still. Yeah, just something like that. But it was just a little bit more updated. I agree. I would probably have one. When you park it next to the Broncos, first of all, it's massive.

And our Broncos are pretty big. It's Ken's Bronco with a four and a half inch lift on it. Yeah. It looks huge next to it. Dude, I feel like the Broncos are a modern day hummers. They kind of are. But they don't have that like, they're a little more Jeepy.

Baller image, though, to them. Yeah. Sorry to out you like this, Ryan. But our UPS driver, actually a new UPS driver, some guy that I'd never seen before. Me either. Comes into our shop to drop off some package and pick up the orders going out.

And he's just about out the door. And Ryan, no, no, he came up to us in the shop. He, like, came up to us as we were building the banshee and he asked, is Randy here? And I go, oh, is that how it went? He came up and he handed it to me and he said, I'm supposed to deliver this to you. And I said, no, you're not.

You're supposed to bring it to my house, which he is supposed to bring it to my house. Where's the other place? Okay. Now take over. All right. So this guy was kind of caught off guard that Ryan kind of snapped back at him, right? He like, you know, defense kind of goes up and he's like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Well, I can't drive down that road.

What am I supposed to do? I can't, I can't deliver to your house. I can't even drive down the road. And Ryan goes, looks at him and goes, buddy, I drive my. little red convertible down that road. I think your truck can do just fine. And the guy was legit, so rattled. He's probably thinking Ryan's talking about like his Ferrari.

He's like, now you're yelling at me first and now you're flexing on me, man. I was trying to say to him that I was driving a 1987 two-wheel drive car that literally is just like the most unreliable winter vehicle ever down our road just fine. but I left out all the parts that made it a bad winter vehicle and just called it a red convertible. I could drive my red convertible down that road and the guy

was like I thought that he was like kind of oh had a tail between his legs and he like kind of walked out like whoa and then when we started thinking about we were like man that guy's got to think you are the biggest asshole Ryan bragging about your red convertible

he didn't say it like he was was cocky. Yeah, I'd drive my red convertible, but I was very a matter of fact, as a matter of fact, he's saying that his truck could fucking make it down. And also, he does deliver the packages that are supposed to go to my neighbors. He delivers in Marhaus every other day anyway. So it's like, that's what was the frustration came in. He called and he was like, I can't get this package to you.

Anyway, because it's a minimum maintenance road. I might be exaggerating how it went just in my own mind to make the story even funnier. I'd imagine this guy went to the bar with his buddies later that night and goes, man, you guys. So I was at the C-Boy's shop, and one of them started flexing on me about his red convertible and how it can go more places than my UPS truck. If he told it like that, that would be really frequent. I'd be like, which one was it? You know, I, for the record, love our service workers.

I love all of our UPS drivers and UPS drivers. But yeah, I just, it was frustrating. And then it was also the midst of the banshee thing, not going well. And it was stressful. And I knew that he was supposed to do his job. And I told him, I was like, yo, you don't have to go down the road in a blizzard. But I was like, it's 45 degrees out today and sunny. You can make it down the road.

I'm on Ryan's side because he got a little whining and he started backing up. We don't, we don't drive down that road. Okay, well, you don't have to drive through when it's a blizzard. Just go down the road when it's not like a time. today. No, we our trucks aren't that good. Yeah, he just didn't want to do it because it takes too fucking long driving there and back. Yeah. Anyway.

Anyway. I just thought it was really funny. If you're a UPS drive, you're already driving everywhere anyways. What's the even matter? I got to admit I have not watched the video yet. Oh, I got started on it. I'm sure Ken hasn't either. I'm going to watch it. I'm excited.

I'm surprised that you got started, obviously got interrupted, but... Did we in the video show how much of an abs lute biach putting the banshee together was no i literally didn't show any of it can we talk about we must we must of the banshee built dude such a disaster yeah let's talk about it i mean we've talked about how we try to make the videos fast and we try to make them entertaining for everybody and it's tough maybe we'll get better at it trying to show the challenges that we faced but wow yeah it was just like every single issue that you could possibly think

of we ran into it started with all right what are we doing this week like most sundays start out we're like all right we got the banshee let's do the build on it we got all these parts that'll be a great tunnel and thumbnail and then we'll uh film that this weekend should be good to go wednesday night and then we can edit it Thursday that was not the case at all it was an aggressive timeline to fully tear down paint well every install the thing is is like everything we do is an aggressive timeline. True. Legit, every single thing we do should not happen as fast as it does, but we just make it

happen because we have to. We're determined. We tell Evan, like, all right, here's what we're thinking. And he is like, he was just like against it from the start that it was even a possible, like the slightest possibility. And which I kind of hate. Well, it's when you threw, he was for sure. It's when you threw in painting the frame.

Then he was like checked out. He's like, yeah. He literally did it. He threw his hands up and he went and played pinball. I was like, this is not the answer, Evan. This is not what we have to, we got to get this done. But anyway. To be fair, he was a smidgen, right.

He was a smidge and right. But like I said, every single thing we do is against the timeline. And all odds. And all odds, right? So anyway, we tell him kind of like the plan and he was like, there's no way. We're going to get this. There's no way we get this done in two days. And then we film it on Wednesday.

like on the ice like built and ready we're like yes we will this thing we start breaking it down we realize that we're missing like 50% of the parts so we overnight the parts and then the next day we're we start putting it back together we realize that we're missing like 25% of the parts that we thought we ordered so then we overnight those parts again luckily if anyone in Minnesota here's like a shameless plug yeah it's like a hack Dennis Kirk you can order parts for your motorcycle or like four wheelers and they're out of minnesota so you get them the next day we're not sponsored by them they have just come in clutched so many so many times they deserve that shout out you don't pay extra for shipping and it shows up legitimately like the next first half of the day

yeah it's crazy so anyway that puts us out to wednesday so we're we're like putting it back together and then we were still running into like every single problem imaginable we get the motor back in and the thing is like pretty much fully built and the clutch wouldn't engage and we're like what the heck we have to tear the whole motor apart basically we're calling it back out we're calling Evan's buddy who's drunk at the bar

who we think knows a little bit about banshees he knew a lot he ended up he ended up knowing a lot he knew everything he's on FaceTime like trying to explain to us what it possibly could be that takes most of Wednesday that's the worst part You can't drive it without a clutch. So we finally get this thing together Wednesday night at like 9 o'clock. And we're like, oh my gosh, okay, it's good to go.

Let's wake up early in the morning and start filming it. And then hopefully be done by like 10, 30, 11. And we can edit the rest of the day and it's going to be up. Because our original plan is always have the video completed by Wednesday night. Yeah. So then you guys can edit all day because it takes all day. That was a plan. when we get out to the lake

and then the banshee won't run so we're messing with like the carb it's like Electron? Yeah, Electron carb and it's supposed to be like easier to dial in but then it's like 15 degrees out Yeah, because it was running

flawlessly in the shop you know? We started runs right and then you get outside and you're running into the issue with like all carbs completely didn't run it. Yeah. So then we spend the next honestly I'm going to give Mike and Evan the shout out for this one because they mostly took it

but they spent the next two hours in like 15 degree weather 40 mile per hour winds trying to dial in this thing finally we were just like screw it got close but yeah it was running as good as we could get it to go barely ran and yeah we were just like fuck it let's just run it running like shit and uh try and just make the best of it which we did it's still ran pretty decent you were able to rip it screaming because we like put a wide kit on it and like six suspension once you got it screaming

it was like the most unreal feeling ever taking like a big fat just like yeah turn just locked in the moral of the story is uh no we didn't show any of that in the video but that happens like honestly 50% of the time he seemed to hit some type of dead end along the way the final kick in the nuts was after spending i mean each night this week we're here pretty late solely working on the banshee like normally people some people be late but you're doing different things you're getting stuff done it was like just this banshee all week took all of our attention and the final kick in the nuts was Thursday afternoon after we'd done everything we could to make it work we miss the good weather the banschey didn't freaking run but what are you going to do you know

but that is how things go it's true and I try and tell obviously we're all kind of aware of this but I try and tell Evan this dude we don't have a choice we have to make it work and we have to figure out what to do like there's no option like we're posting on Thursday we owe it to 1.8 million people not that we owe it to them but like they expect a video right we've been doing this for years and we've been doing it and we I know we can do it we just have to like get creative and figure out how yeah right and and that boiled down to you know we we made we made it work by we're waking up early and really having to cram it all together but also you know sometimes you got to make do and it was running like shit and we kind of like well it's good enough to run it's still

fun and uh it was it was it's good time and it yeah just can't give up i'm curious though like the audience maybe drop up a comment i'm genuinely curious if you guys are interested in like behind the scenes of like the videos or if being that we've already like released the video it's kind of just like said and done and you guys don't really want to like hear about it I don't know because it's like something we go back and forth on is like a garage do people want to hear what they've already watched yeah I like talking about like backstories uh parts to stories I I think that's interesting like when I listen to Rob Deer Dick talk on a podcast or whoever and he kind of tells like oh when we were filming this this was actually going on

and this like I think that's that's fun but yeah I did think it was funny how uh not to out Evan, but he was not having it from the moment we proposed doing the banshee build. Well, I'm sure he's worked on some four years and has known that not often does a full rebuild tear down paint job, upgrade go well in 36

hours. He threw his hands up multiple times. He goes literally like this. It's funny, dude. It's hilarious. And I think one of the harder parts is we definitely needed his help. We needed him for it. Even was huge in the build. He probably did fuck 50%. A lot of it, yeah. And I mean, we had

five guys yeah have you guys ever heard the story of fenn's treasure so this 80 year old man was dying of cancer and he hid a treasure chest somewhere in the rocky mountains from new mexico to the canadian border oh my worth two million dollars and he released a poem one poem basically saying like where it was with like kind of like little clues in the poem but you had to like dissect the poem and I'm sure it's pretty vague it was insanely vague but I could never be smart enough to do that I'd write like the most complex thing I'd be like nobody's ever going to find this and someone would have it before I died yeah it'd be like found it my whole my whole legacy it's all over yeah so this this guy hides a two million

dollar treasure chest which is cash or stuff full of, like, gold and, like, old antiques and gems and jewels and stuff. And the guy was, like, an art collector, so maybe he just put it in that. And hit it somewhere in the Rocky Mountains, dropped this poem, and then basically said, you know, just dropped a new poem. He put it in a book, but he put in a book. And this treasure hunt went on for 10 years. He did this in 2010, and the treasure hunt went on.

five people died looking for it a couple people sued the guy because they thought that he was like moving the treasure when they would get close oh he was still alive he was still alive for a while yeah yeah yeah yeah so 10 years after he dropped like the poem some guy found it no way it was real

I just figured the guy faked it yeah no it was real and then he died like a month after it was found Okay, I'm super, that's cool that he was alive for it. But he stated, like, I'm never going to tell anyone where it is. Like, I'm going to take it to the grave. If nobody finds it by the time I die. Yeah.

But, like, 250,000 people were looking for it. Whoa. Over that 10-year span. That seems like something your dad would do. Hide it. No. Hide, go and go and look for it. That's really cool.

It's just, like, the fact that you can do anything you want. Like, you know what I'm saying? Like, he's just like, I'm going to create a treasure hunt for 250. thousand people that it amounted to but think if you're a rich guy and you don't have any like kind of like family to pass down to yeah that's that's that's way more fun cool way to do it yeah i agree way more enjoyment but yeah dude people were suing this guy so where was it on wyoming somewhere but he never he never said where it was and the guy that found it said he spent he he had like the general area of where it was i don't know if it was like a mile span uh but he spent 25 days straight

in this little area looking for it and you finally found it where was it somewhere in Wyoming but the guy never said where it was like buried or what's what I'm trying to like pictures it buried is it under a tree like what are you looking for that's like the part that's like the most annoying is they never said

where it was uh yeah just be curious to know that yeah because like I mean think even when you're looking for something like if you threw that basketball over there out into the woods or the field it'd probably take a while to find that and you know I'm looking for a basketball. Imagine if you don't even know what you're looking for. Yeah, dude, people were dying and the police were contacting them.

Like the part of Yellowstone, they were like, you need to call this off. Like, people are dying. And he said, people drown in pools and you don't, yeah. And you don't drain the pool. Yeah. He was like, so then he released a statement and he said, I hid this when I was 80 years old. Yeah. And unhealthy.

You don't need to die to find it. Okay, that's smart. Like, it is somewhere very. accessible to find it because like people are like repelling down massive faces of rocks trying to like get really yeah that's a good point though if he really did hide it himself they kind of are a little bit silly i mean i guess he could like helicoptered in somewhere but still yeah dude but uh some guy like broke into his house in 2018 and it's at his house yeah the guy like stole another treasure chest that was like fake or something like that oh okay

and uh got caught stealing it at gun It says just in the article, he was held at gunpoint until the police arrived. So I'd imagine this fan, Forrest Fenn, is just holding him with a shotgun or something in his face. Like, you're not going anywhere. But when I was reading that, as soon as I saw that somebody broke into his property, I was like, oh my gosh, some guy probably broke in, held him at gunpoint and said, where is it? Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah.

But then it took another twist. And I was like, oh, that isn't how. If that happened, the dude just seems like such a badass that he'd be like, you. You're really going to shoot me for it? I'm not telling you. Yeah, I mean, he said he was taking into the grave. So, dude, that's crazy. Wyoming, remember the dude in Wyoming that we were talking to at the bar that was like,

he's super interesting. And you asked him like, oh, something about killing someone. Like, you didn't just go, would you ever kill anyone? But he's just like. Are you talking about Butterhole? I didn't want to drop a name here. Oh, okay. Sorry.

Yeah. But bottle wasn't much of a name. Yeah, I know. The police are like, we got him. But yeah, he was just like, oh, yeah. I'd know where to do it. Yeah, I'd ride a horse up there in the mountains, like in Wyoming. He's a true cowboy.

True cowboy. Yeah, you don't know what fuck with those cowboys. Yeah, like, he didn't even like, it wasn't a joke. He's just like, yeah, I mean, I could do it. You could do it, and I'd know where I'd do it and how to do it. Not going to do it, but yeah. Don't piss him off. People apparently were, like, quitting their jobs and getting arrested for, like, spending

too much time in the Yellowstone National Park. You can get arrested for spending too much time? I don't know. there without a permit and stuff and the camping in places that you're not supposed to. Oh, another guy also dug up a grave site thinking that he would like put it in a grave and he was like digging up graves. Dude, when you first said that, people were quitting their jobs. I'm like, so dumb.

But also you get people, not saying they're delusional, but they're like two million bucks. We could take the next year off and then I'm good set for life. Like it almost reminds you like a movie. We just got to find the fence treasure. Dude, I guess there was like a big deal at the time. and like they'll probably be a documentary on it yeah there was like podcast obviously podcast series on it like trying to figure out where it was speaking of podcasts and CJ's girlfriend Alex just walked in this made me think of it why do girls like

like scary crime true crime documentary podcast that's I think it's everything like she'll want to like go to bed and not watch YouTube so then she throws on like this like murder documentary of this lady or some guy that killed a bunch. I'm like, I don't want to fall asleep to this. Yeah, it is weird. I think it is a girl thing. However, why is it a girl thing? It's like all of them

like it. Like Evan, only, he listens to true crime podcast all day. He goes to bed watching like true like crime gang related rapper stuff. Seriously, it's insane how much he watches. So it's like, he's just obsessed with it. I think it's the same reason that like cops in thumb

nails pop off like people are just i don't i think they get like it's like they can watch it and it's just it's like it's something that's happening in real life so it's interesting but also it's like oh that's never going to be me yeah but like a lot of will get like freaked out like well we'll just be listening to it and she'll go like and be like listening intently and i'm like are you serious right now like why how is this comforting you ever heard the life wide open podcast yeah true Just easy listening It's true Every word here is true

No crime here Geniuses I don't know man I can't even watch scary movies You know You're kind of a wuss about that I've really never understood Why people would be interested

In listening to podcast About true stories Because most scary movies are fake And I even know that And I still don't want to watch them But did you like watch like Dahmer I watched the first episode I watched the first episode

Make sense then Like you're just not into that But like And I'm not super into it but i watched it enjoyed it and and then at the end you're like but you're you even ask yourself you're like man me watching this glorifying it like i had to quit watching because it started grossing me out uh when i would be eating so say i was like eating meat like like uh chicken leg yeah i'd be like eating it and i'd start i'd just think about the show and this guy legitimately eating shit like

you know me if like i i'd have a hard time eating and then i just i just quit the show at like five episodes haven't watched single one and i forgot about it until now, so I don't know. Well, just relax. I just want to take some pictures. So are we doing Friendsgiving? Sorry. Tomorrow.

Oh, so that's tomorrow. Yeah. Where are we doing that at? We haven't decided. I don't think anyone is stepped up to the plate. We have a trend. I'm sure you guys know what Thanksgiving is. You know, you get together with your friends and eat food, bring food, just like Thanksgiving.

But we have a trend where we break shit after every Friendsgiving. Like, it's insanely destructive. I think the first of your recipe. Yeah, I think we have to. Maybe not. Maybe not. We'll see what happens. I kind of want to just get insanely destructive. So yeah. Like incredibly drunk and breaks so much shit.

The three steps are one, none of us know how to cook. So we bring food of different, our favorite other types of food. So you'll have wings and Chinese and pizza and whatever. And then step two is eat it and then get wicked drunk. Yeah. And then step three is destroy your surroundings. And I don't know why.

You're firing me up. The last couple of years, it's just happened. Well, and the first time that it happened, it actually just happened. And that's the most, like, the best one. It's like we didn't plan to get wicked drunk, but did. And we definitely did not plan to break all the chairs and tables and plates in our surrounding, but we did. And then the next year. It was fun, though.

Oh, it was a blast. Yeah, that was fun. It was like the next year, then we did it last year. We did it last. We still, I don't think tradition now. Yeah, but we weren't necessarily planning on it, but as we're breaking shit, we're like, tradition though, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then the next year, we just broke shit just because it was tradition. We knew we had to. And then this year, so we're looking for a place to host it. I laughed when when Megan offered up, so Megan and Justin's house, we were like, well, I offered up. Are you sure? I was like, I'm down. Do you remember how these end up?

I didn't. I offered up our house. And then I also said, but it was. would be fun to do it at Megan and Justin's too. I love going there. And then Ben goes, looking for a new dining room table. I, and then you were like, you guys remember what happens at these, right? And then we're all both like, oh, yeah, dude at your place.

How do you guys feel about everyone bringing some food and then everyone bringing $100 in cash as just like a deposit for the destruction of like the house? Oh, I'd rather you bring something to break, I guess. That's actually a good idea. Oh, that'd be pretty good too. but I'm just picturing having it at Megan and Justin's house and they're like flat screen TV

I kind of want to throw a plate through it oh my gosh dude that's the problem with that though I think that'd just be incredibly satisfying yeah it'd be fun do you want to the actual issue with it though is then Justin's got to go up get a new TV he's got to hang it up like it's more so even the work even if you buy him a whole new TV

and it's still like kind of a I guess you're right I'd like to think you buy a one you're thinking about the complications of it yeah you just throw What the fuck are you growing up? Holy shit. Dude, how, like, sociopathic YouTube prank would this be? Like, we do that, but really just punching holes in drywall.

They can't stop anyone. They're like, and then, but then we like, you know, it's all over and like they're practically crying. And we're like, we got you a full house renovation. And they'd be like, yeah, we're sick. Okay, it would be because it'd be a lot of money, but I agree, it would be sick. But then they'd also be like, well, shit.

How long is it going to be? Yeah, it's going to be. Yeah. It's going to be. it's funny because me and CJ have literally already done this to our grandpa putting the old Q through his TV

that was so funny dude he was rattled my only regret from that the family back then dude the family still I don't even know if they knew that we were YouTubers like the extended family that wasn't like our direct relatives that were there man they were confused

yeah they just thought I was watching you do it yeah I granted everyone was confused and concerned when CJ lost a pool game and then snap the pool cue and then put the pool cue through the TV with the entire family watching. I can't believe you got that through that TV.

It would have been kind of embarrassing if it just went, my favorite part wasn't, they weren't necessarily concerned about you being mad in general. They were like, they were concerned about me. They were like,

there was something wrong with my head. And then they probably look over at my dumb ass standing there holding a camera, they were like, man, these fucking. idiots they just don't they they are so out of touch with reality that they think this is funny this is funny because i'm probably smirking i'm like yeah that was awesome yeah it's good times

good times dude so so ryan bought a corvette branded ballet official pinball machine it's dope it's vintage works 1994 that's the year it's firm and and we were like Ryan found it first he's You can tell it. You grew up with some pinball machines and so like it's always been your thing but guys, this would be fun. Yeah. A little shop thing to have around the shop.

You know nothing too serious. And where you know it's on track to bankrupt the company. Dude, us out of business. It's like crack. It's so addicting. Very similar to a slot machine.

Obviously there's skill involved. You're you got to do things. You can't suck. You got to have quick reflexes. But at the end of the day, a lot of lights. A lot of flashing at you. A lot of sounds.

A lot of power. power-ups, a lot of chances to get a lot of points, multipliers. I'm like, this is just like a slot machine. And then when you... I don't have to pay for it. Well, that's the best part. I think the real draw, though, is that we want to have our name on the top three scores, which you got your name up there.

And I'm like, God, dang. I just want to have my name going across the screen because it's always lit up going across. Dude, you guys are so addicted. You get so close. You're like, God, next game's going to be the one. I'm going to get this. I'm going to get this.

And then it's so frustrating when it goes down the middle. The worst part is, is that I'm going to get this. that I scored that pretty early on. I'm stoked about it. I still don't really know how I did. You're asking me, how do you do it? How'd you do it? And I'm like, dude, I don't know.

I got four times multiplier and got lucky. Pinball Mike. But, bro, this might be the reason that the banshee bill took four and a half days to finish. I was pretty good about it. Bro, I swear, we would just be getting rolling and then everyone would just get up and go and work, go and play the pinball machine. It's such a distinct noise. You definitely know when someone's playing it.

Yeah, yeah. You go, oh, I'm like, man, they're really getting into this. Dude, it's even got Ken Yelly. Yeah, I know. Ken doesn't be over the best of himself. I looked at the thing you can see how many games we've played, and I reset it when we got it because I was very interested. Wow.

We've played over 1,200 games and we've had for six days. Oh, my gosh. It's like 200 games a day. That is insane. If you start averaging out how much time, that takes granted there's a lot of us but still unreal yeah so then it's so fun dude i love it i'm a it's so fun you want to know it's actually i've always actually like pinball machines uh ever since when i met ryan when we were kids and he had two pinball machines at his house it was so

fun to play on um but then also i think what really got me into the pinball was how back when we used to print shirts at ken's uncle's shop they had this playboy pinball machine in there and I didn't I didn't just like it because it was playboy I liked it genuinely fun yeah it was fun and uh Alex is sitting over there sorry uh and what I found out though with pinball machines because I started looking into them and it's crazy because they you can buy a pinball machine and it goes up and they collect like certain ones are rare certain ones go up and it's just I honestly just I don't know the way I look at pinball machines is it's an investment just Ben you

keep your dirty little fingers out of the pinball game, okay? Don't make us go bankrupt. There's this, I haven't touched it, actually. You can play. I probably think the only reason why you played two or three games tops. Yeah, it's because you aren't good at it. You just can't, you don't like it. Just because you're not good.

It's just not fun. Yeah, you just, because you're not good. I don't think it's that fun. Come on. The same thing happens every single time. Unless you get a high score. It goes here, it goes there, or it goes around and it comes back, and you just hitting it with these little.

paddles the whole time. Like, it's not that fucking fun. I hate to break it to you guys. No, but you got the strategy of hitting the different things. Yeah, yeah, you got to aim and you got to. There's no aim. You're hitting it with a paddle. You have no control.

You're good. You're a little aim. You're a aim. You ain't aiming at CJ. Yes, I am. No chance. Oh, yeah. I am.

Aiming by timing. That's a chance, dude. Yeah. I'll stop the ball. Yeah. They're like, put it in the pit because it's a car racing one, Corbett one. I'll fucking nail it into the pit. And it just gives me a little dopamine dump every

A little dopamine hit. So great. Ben, for you, it's just like people who say, like, I don't watch TikTok. I go, good for you. Don't. That's it. Like, if you don't play that pinball machine, don't. Yeah, I wouldn't start, man.

You don't play pinball? More time for me and more time for me to play pinball and more time for you to probably be productive. Yeah, you go make money so we can play more pinball. I wish it was more fun. I wish it got me off the same way it does for you guys. I swear, you guys are over there with just phoneers. I'm going to go down there right after.

I believe it. I think we got to get one more, though. So there's this debate. So Ryan went and bought it himself. So he like kind of, he sent it in the group chat. He's like, we should get this.

It was on Facebook marketplace, not far from us. And we were into it. Like we all like pinball machines, but also it was kind of like, where are we going to put it? And I was like, I'm down, I guess.

And then he was, it was kind of mixed reviews. So Ryan's like, whatever. I'm going to go pay for it with my own money. And I'm going to set in the shop and see, happens so he sets it up everyone starts playing that thing and i'm cool with the company

reimbursing you and it being a company purchase i think everyone's cool with it except for ben i got i got a win ben over it's like six grand one it's fifty three hundred bucks one i don't care i don't care if i don't care if the company buys it i've told you that five times i'm outruled i'm outruled there's four to one i guess yeah if you did i like it's not i need to get another one That's where I draw the line. That's where I draw the line. Well, is this place can turn into a fucking arcade?

We should tear out the gym and we should put in an arcade. Oh my gosh. We'll use the arcade more. We can get a blackjack table and ATM for when our friends come over and we want to play dice and go to the ATM. I would love an ATM. No more of this like I owe you shit. And we do an ATM way.

I don't even care if it doesn't have fees just so that there's cash. No, we're putting fees on it too. You don't show up here with no money thinking you're going to play dice. That's awesome. It does take the Venmo factor which is lame. Yeah, the Venmo's lame. Your bank reimburses the fees.

Nobody's paying ATM fees anymore. Do they? Shit. Really? Up to a certain point. I need to get on that. You'd have to ask Ken. Anyway, though, I don't care if the company buys the pinball machine.

I just don't want it to become this thing of like, all right, we got one. Let's get 17. So that and that's, we do have a tendency of doing that. Yeah. Because you guys are like, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, we can get a. A Tom Cruise top gun one over here. And CJ's like, oh, my gosh. Oh, okay, I found this one.

It's a Transformers one. What if we got that one? That would look good next to the Tom Cruise one. It's kind of like artwork, dude. It looks good sitting in the shop. It's cool. It's like lights up. It's just another little cool addition.

I don't get it, dude. You're too young. That's where I want to stick with it. He's so used to those fucking video games on the screen. He can't just play a thing. Let's get a bunch of Nintendo switches and you'd be all over. Yeah, he'd be like, oh, let's get one for every room. or wheeze or whatever you kids play

get a Nintendo switch room it's portable who knows who knows like 12 of them like we could just go on for every person that's actually funny dude imagine we're doing some kind of like

YouTube cribs tour and we like go through and of course we got a Nintendo switch again they're all mounted to the wall in the podcast room in case you want to play some Zelda or whatever Yeah, they could just have the docs for them, but, yeah, dude, at the end of the day, it comes down to, like, the time that we have and, and we don't have a lot of it. And we shouldn't spend it playing pinball, but there is that. Oh, dude, like, I just bought a PS5 today.

Really? What are you going to play that? I don't have time to play that. It's like Ken buying an Xbox last year for Brian. Ken plays his Xbox. Remember? Does he? Flight simulator?

Oh, you weren't here. You weren't here. Yeah. Still, I want to know if you can see the shop. No, he doesn't. he's just like everything else he doesn't go and check it he doesn't it's too much work I like is dumb as it sounds though like I mean I actually really don't have a lot of time to play it I've been wanting a PS5 since they came out vowed not to buy one above retail here's the

thing I at the end of the day I just want to like kind of play it a little bit just like feel normal that sounds dumb I go off some steam yeah it's like do nothing I basically once we started YouTube quit playing video games all together almost and and and or that's what I would do. I'd go over, hang on with Jake, and play just a little bit of video games, and I love it, but just don't have the time. I think you quit doing things that were productive, or that weren't productive. If there was no productivity or anything like that to it, and I think all of us kind of quit doing that. We'd just like, I don't do that anymore. Yeah. Yeah. You see, I, I've always loved video games. I was a huge gamer growing up,

played all the Call of Duties, Halo. And before that, I mean, freaking, you know, tons of games. And now? Nothing. And I tried getting back into it when I was sick earlier this fall. And I got my Xbox Live subscription backup. And I hop on and like my friends were overplaying. And I hop on and they're like, this whole thing. Yeah, because like most people still play. And I think it's awesome. It's so fun. But I kept running in this thing. I was like, it'd be like four or five games. And I was like getting frustrated or I'd be like getting happy about like, oh, I ranked up. But I was like, it doesn't, none of it matters. None of it matters. It's like, like, false, like gain in your life, but realistically, none of it matters. But if you're having fun, which I was having fun, and that's what you got for, it's really fun. But I think you get hooked by this idea that you're, like, ranking up in, well, you're ranking up in the game, but not in real life. But it gives you these dopamine hits.

It does. That's why Call of Duty became so successful, not only because it was a fun game, but, like, after every match online, you get your XP bonus and you watch your barbough. and you're like, oh, I only need like this many more points. And then I'm a level 55, you know, and like, you get ranked up and get this gone. Like, it's just... Wait, so you're telling me that my high score on the pinball machine isn't real. So I was going to jump in there. Is for like bragging rights.

Exactly. You got the bragging rights. It's right there in the shop. It's coming by every time Ben walks by and all of those have the top score. He's just going to go, ugh. Yeah, he's going to go back and play his wee or whatever those kids playing out is. We. I don't know if that's going to happen, but maybe.

We're going to check the security cameras, and Ben's going to be here like 3 a.m. on Friday night, just playing, trying to get good. I tried getting into it the other night. I genuinely watched you play about three games. Every single time, the ball would just go down the middle. It's because you're not good. You're not aiming.

Dude, you got to know where the ball, how it's going to hit, how it's going to spin off. The mini-games of it. Yep. Yeah, you want to know which lanes to hit it in, to activate different challenges. At the right times, you've got to follow them. All right.

Well, I'm happy for you guys. Thanks. It's just not for me. And with that, that's the end of the day's podcast. Thanks for listening, guys. We'll be back next week. Hit the subscribe button if you have already.

Love you guys. We're going to go play pinball.
