Starting point is 00:01:41 trial at audible.com. We had like a designated smoking pit outside the high school. Shut up. If you guys weren't YouTubers, what would you want your profession to be? We started a band. Ken, can you spin a track and we'll start singing? I think that's the worst hangover I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:01:57 The king of hangovers. I don't actually know what happened on Saturday. You've kind of been beating our stuff up, Spending. This might be a hard thing to hear, but school is easier than life. I was talking to my brother yesterday when I was in The Skiddy, and he heard the podcast about it, and he's like, dude, don't get the fake tits, man. He's like, he's like, just don't do it. He's like, then you're going to be, like, categorized as, like, a fucking mutant. Like, people are going to be, like, you're going to be, like, one of those mutants.
Starting point is 00:02:25 He's like, that's just just so wag. He thought you were contemplating? Yeah, he thought I was serious. Was the wooden dirt bike Cole's idea? Mm-hmm. He's fucking ripping him. Dude, he loves it, bro. I mean, the ice rink idea was, that's a great idea.
Starting point is 00:02:39 What's the ice rink idea? So, I mean, you know how we always go on the ice in the winter with the studded tires? My brother was like, dude, you guys got to do a video where you pull up to like a skating rink and rent it out, but then stut up the bikes and take them and run them in the... That actually be sick. In the ice rink, in the summer. Think, we've never thought about, like, just doing our ice. stuff in an indoor ring and then ironically i got a call from buddy spencer and he's like yo i talked to the guy at fargo forest which i believe you talked to too and he's like yeah they'd let you do it like
Starting point is 00:03:07 in the arena i'm like even better and then he's so good one more yeah one more step he's like no he wants you to do it like during a game yeah it would so at the very least i'd love to do it in the arena like it's a great idea i told them we're down to do it but you got to at least let us run a couple laps on the zamboni that'd be said yeah i've always wanted to operate a Zamboni. Yeah, can you just drive a Zamboni on the streets? Some guy got a Dewey in some county on a Zamboni. Impressive.
Starting point is 00:03:35 I think it was in Canada. Of course it was in Canada. Dude, we need to buy a Zamboni. I lied. The guy actually got a DUI on a Zamboni in Fargo, North Dakota. Shut up. Shut up. Where is he driving it?
Starting point is 00:03:47 On the ice or on the road? Oh, at the hockey rink? I bet hockey arena, like, owners and staff have dealt with that a lot. Like, people drinking while Zamboni in the ring because they're like, Who's going to know? The Zamboni guy. Yeah, he's in the back, having a few beers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:01 I think that's a job you can comfortably have a few beers and do. Yeah. Okay, this, I'm not going to know of his name, but he looks hammered in that picture. We probably was. He looks pretty sad. Well, where is he driving it? I'm trying to figure out where in town. Like, I feel like there's a few jobs out there that you can have a few beers and still do.
Starting point is 00:04:19 Like, I mean, there's more in a few jobs out there. Mowing, obviously. Evan's proven that. Mowing is like it's almost a requirement. Like being a doctor probably shouldn't have. have a few beers and get in and do some open brain surgery. I'd say the blue collar guys, they run beers. Like my brother, he's a refridge guy.
Starting point is 00:04:35 And they go rip like two, three, four beers at lunch all the time. Yeah. Really? Okay. And he's running HVAC, correct? HVAC, that's a two, three beer job. No, I think electricians, you've got to be more dialed because you get zapped. You'll, like, run a couple beers and you know, call me after lunch and be like,
Starting point is 00:04:50 yes, had a couple beers. And like, you can tell he's kind of, you know, feeling up a little bit. Going back to work. What's another job you have two, three beers and still do? Bartender. Yeah, you could be a bartender. You can buy them shots even. I have a funny story.
Starting point is 00:05:06 Like when I started bartending at Zorbas, you used to back in the day to drink while you bartend, but then that got cut. And I was like, oh, that's so lame. It'd be so great to drink while you bartend. I get why it's a rule because then when I went to Wii Fest and I got a little bartending gig for the night, they're like, yeah, yeah, just sling people drinks. And then you can drink too. Don't worry about that.
Starting point is 00:05:26 and I blacked out while I was... How many years ago is this? I don't know, like six and I blacked out while I was bartending and I woke up with like 300 bucks stuffed in all of my pockets and I'm like, all right, not bad.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Seems like you did good. See, that's what I'm saying. The black out method works, bartending. Oh yeah, bartending's for sure one of them. What's one more? I think it's more common than you guys think. Blue collar boys for sure. Roofing, you know, anything like that.
Starting point is 00:05:54 See, I would argue. I'm just, I think it happens more than you think. Like roofing maybe isn't a good one to have beers at lunch because you're up on a roof, it's dangerous. Like landscaping. You can drink a couple beers and build a retaining one. I'm going to go out on a little left field here. I'm going to say marketing.
Starting point is 00:06:10 If you're in marketing, you can have four beers at lunch. Yeah. We're talking about what jobs you can have beers at lunch and still be good. Sales. Sales. Well, at that point, you're just a client entertainment. Yeah. Cashier at the liquor store.
Starting point is 00:06:22 I don't want your dentist out ripping a couple of lunch beers. Yeah, no, I think if somebody's up in your mouth. The list of jobs you can't drink beers on is long. Pretty heavy. But like maybe your eye doctor, they could have a couple. As long as they're not doing surgery, but like if they're doing the one or two, you're doing all the work, dude. They're really just sitting there.
Starting point is 00:06:41 They're just sitting there telling you if you can see or not. Yeah, exactly. You're the one doing all the work at the eye doctor. Yeah, that's a good point. But a haircut, you don't want your barber. That's true. They're doing the eye test and they're like, what are you seeing up there? And he's like, I think it's an eight.
Starting point is 00:06:55 No. I don't think it's an eight either. He's like, oh, shit, you got me on that one. Okay. Oh, my God. Maybe I'm a little more piled up. Barber's a fine line. Like one or two might be fine.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Once you get past like three, then that haircut's going to be uneven. Nothing worse than getting an uneven haircut, too. I get self-conscious when I get them. Yeah, you just kind of get flustered. You get warm and you're like, oh, dude, every time I get a haircut, there's like a sweet spot in like the awkward stage of like post haircut i feel like maybe it's just my hair but it's like two weeks of like after a haircut it's just not where you want it yeah isn't that weird how normally i didn't actually
Starting point is 00:07:36 think that until ken's mom before the wedding goes micha now don't go and do something silly like get a haircut the day before because you're gonna look like an idiot good point and then i didn't think about it but yeah i'm like actually there is that like fresh i just got a haircut type vibe that it's like whoa man did she show up to your wedding and just go you didn't listen did you Well, luckily, I played it kind of safe, and I got it five days before. She was giving me all kinds of jokes. Can I show up in Carhart? And I'm like, you can wear whatever you want, Carol.
Starting point is 00:08:05 It's just an outdoor wedding, Carolyn. So you blacked out bartending? That's actually awesome. Yes, but it was like I wasn't being paid. It was at a music festival. Oh, it was kind of like your pay was to. Yeah, exactly. I mean, I probably had like 20 jello shots.
Starting point is 00:08:20 I mean, that, that, I feel like it'd be hard not to at Wife. Serve one. Wait, you were serving at Wife? Exactly. Why do I not remember you do that? It was, um, I think the bar, it was the Moorhead Bar, uh, it got shut down. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. You were working that?
Starting point is 00:08:34 Yeah, he just was like, you want a bartend? Like, people will tip you. And the booze is free, so you'll make a lot of money. And then I blacked out and I like woke up. I woke up in my blue van with a bunch of money in my pockets, right? Right. I'm sleeping on the velvet couch. I saw it.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Now that you say that, I think I remember dragging you out of there. Yeah. Good guy, Ken. Whenever Mike blacks out or anyone for that matter, Ken's there. You know, he's the first one there to just be yanking you out. My 21st birthday. Surprise I made it out without like a spinal injury. Yeah, I remember it.
Starting point is 00:09:04 Dude, he needs to go in the bathtub. He can flip him over, flip him over. He's going to choke on his poop. He's just tacoed over the bathtub. Yeah, literally. And Ken is like, that's perfect. He'll be fine. I didn't.
Starting point is 00:09:20 I made it through. I actually like vividly, vividly remember the next day. kind of just nurturing you back to life. Oh, my God. And I'm not, I don't think I've ever seen someone so hungover. I'm not joking. I think that's the worst hangover I've ever seen ever. Ryan's the king of hangovers.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Yeah. Every time. So bad, dude. So bad. He'll be downwind from booze and he'll get a hangover the next day. I don't even bother texting Ryan the morning after him drinking because I just know he's just you know, he's fighting the demons. Dude, Saturday was so fun though.
Starting point is 00:09:50 Yeah. When we hung out on Saturday, when Ben was at Weefest? You and Glennie were tearing it up. Yeah, dude, Lenny and Ryan got hammered. Your dad, pretty drunk? Yo, him and Ryan were going drink for drink for like four, five hours, six hours. Your dad was chilling, it seemed like.
Starting point is 00:10:05 Every time he jumped in the boat to go take a pee, he drifted 60 feet away from the boat. We had to pick him up. He didn't quite grasp the concept of like when you have to pee on the boat, you just hang on to the back. He would jump off every time. It was a super windy day, and he would drift that way. I'd drift, you know, we'd basically drift apart. and I'd have to go get him and go pick him back up. It was so far that, like, he couldn't swim over.
Starting point is 00:10:29 We had to fire up the boat and do a loop and get him. I honestly thought Glenn and I were having a pretty good time, and then I tried surfing, and then I couldn't surf. I was so hammered, I couldn't surf. It was pretty bad. Yeah, and I feel bad because CJ was kind of like not at the level that me and Glenn were. So was Benny. No, I was fine.
Starting point is 00:10:48 It really wasn't bad. I was just your surf performance, I was surprised. Dude, I felt so bad. Ryan's a great surfer, and I literally was like, Ryan needs to go. Everyone watched Ryan. He's going to do great. And then he just went out there and fell like three times. I know.
Starting point is 00:11:02 And I kept going to go one more, one more. I can get it. No, dude, I mean, I'm a pretty good surfer. That's a job you can do after a beer or two. I just could not get my feet underneath me. I don't know. It might have been my driving comments. The funniest thing when Ryan, the last time he went, he's like, I'll go one more.
Starting point is 00:11:17 And he goes and he falls and nobody was watching, but he goes into the water head first. and then I like look away, look back and his feet are up in the air and he's flipping his feet in the air Like he's doing a headstand And he's kicking his feet above water I was trying to swim down I was embarrassed
Starting point is 00:11:32 We got home And Londra was like Oh Longbridge was so good last night And I was like we went to Longbridge Dude I don't actually know what happened on Saturday I actually have a video of you Ryan I do you're drunk man Dude I don't know what happened
Starting point is 00:11:48 We ripped a bunch of pole tabs And didn't win any That's where all my money went. Dude, I had like a couple hundred bucks that were gone, too. I knew that something was going on when I was getting, when I was getting videos of Spenny's parents, mostly his dad dancing to YMCA and like that's, you know, a pretty American song right there. And the Canadians in the boat were just loving it. Okay, that's just really hilarious that you say that, Ryan,
Starting point is 00:12:16 because I was like, I'm pretty sure the YMCA song is Canadian. Is it really? And people was inspired by a YMCA location in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Is it? Oh, shit. Oh, and then Trump kind of just. Because that's why I was like, man. He just,
Starting point is 00:12:29 he's really getting into this. This must be a Canadian song. Interesting. Oh, he just loves like, that's like an old, what is that song from like the 80s? Oh, my God. I'm so nervous. Oh, my God, dude. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Dude, me and Glennie had the time of our life, but I just, I think I was trying to have fun. Yes. That's the vibe, dude. Oh, yeah, that is good. Ryan and Glennie were flinging their tongues out. I actually never get anxiety because I just don't. Who's moron, Glennie? Oh, Glennie's tongue was firing, huh?
Starting point is 00:13:07 Ryan's a fucking rock star when he's been rocking out, bro. I will say, though, dude, I love drunk me. I'm pretty embarrassed about that, but at least it looks like I was having a good time. Yeah, I don't, it's not much embarrassing about that. Yeah, was Glennie kind of, like, hitting the, the emo? Yeah, Glennie's got to be emote? Yeah, it was just so far. I think I just wanted to show Spenny's parents a good time,
Starting point is 00:13:35 so I figured I better just do my best to ruin it. Oh, no, that's fun. I thought you were being hilarious. They thought you were so funny. Really? Yeah, they thought you were hilarious. You were saying such funny stuff. Like what?
Starting point is 00:13:45 You were like, I think at one point you were like, Glennie, where did you find a burn? I think you said that No, I didn't know Where did you find a burn? Oh, I'm sweating He was like, where did you find a burn, Glennie? What?
Starting point is 00:13:58 What else do you say? I can't, oh man, I can't even remember But he was being so funny What were you calling him? Glenjamin, yeah. Gensomen, Glennjamin. No, yeah, you were being hilarious Well, that's good to hear
Starting point is 00:14:09 I was feeling pretty bad about it. I was like, oh man, hopefully Spenny's parents I don't think I'm an idiot. Dude, I thought you're so funny. We've had a lot of visitors this summer and I'd say our hospitality rating has got to be at five stars. Yeah, I was going up for sure. But I mean, we try and show everyone that comes to your good time.
Starting point is 00:14:25 And people, like, they might, they have lots of things to say about how much fun and this and that, but they're like, the hospitality is just insane, which is good. We're really doing that for Rich this time around. Rich is here now, and we're going above and beyond for him. Trying to make it worth his while. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Bro, we had five different groups of people here yesterday at the same time. On Tuesday. It was crazy. On Tuesday. Like, we had literally five different groups. We had Rick'd off. his crew. Yeah, we from the music video yesterday.
Starting point is 00:14:51 The Beyond the Spotlight guys filming a podcast down below. We had Noah cleaning the cars. We had the Enduro guys show up. And we had Grandpa Ron. And all of them just kind of came. We didn't, you know, it's like this place is just a revolving door. It's crazy. But I like it.
Starting point is 00:15:09 I'm glad that people have fun here and like feel comfortable and want to keep coming back. So clearly we're doing something right. It's sick. that's the best part about this area in the summer too is there's so many people that just you know kind of come to the lakes area and uh the shop is just kind of became like one of the frequent stops we're pretty welcoming if you're our friend if you're a random person we've never met we're not very welcoming so don't show up but pretty much all our friends are always welcome i mean it's pretty much guaranteed a good time when they come over like they know something's happening
Starting point is 00:15:41 six days out of the week yeah if you come on a saturday in july it's gonna be good time yeah it's almost guaranteed there. And if something isn't happening, we'll get something going quick, you know, like, pull out the, dig out the pit bikes and hit the pit bike tracker. Yeah, that is, yeah, we don't, it's like, we don't like awkward silence around here. Like, if not much is happening, we're like, all, what should we do? Let's do something. Yeah, let's do some wheelies.
Starting point is 00:16:02 There really is. There's just so much stuff to do. And that's the cool part about, like, the compound is, like, back when we're younger, like, Fantasy Factory or Nitro Circus or, like, Viva Labam, like, all these different shows had, like their compound that was you know the set of the show and we have like really capitalized on just making our compound a constant playground of fun shit always happening i hate to be cocky but i think we might have surpassed all of those compounds like i mean we got a drift track we have a skate park we got moto tracks we got pit bike tracks we got fucking we got literally
Starting point is 00:16:41 all that shit like the fantasy factory is i come and like was probably nicer but yeah we got like 40 we definitely got more shit to do here than in the fantasy factory although i'd love to go there if it was still assembled but uh yeah and then the crazy part is is you got the sickest surf boat and jet skis right there too five minutes away not trying to be cocky i'm just saying i think we we finally we did it doing it hello you guys it's hether mcdonnell and i have a juicy scoop for you on audible i've been loving the romance collection.

Yeah, we're still doing a track right now. We're building another track right now. Rich is here extending our current track and then we're building another track.
Starting point is 00:18:29 I don't know how much we can say, but another version of a track. I've been ripping the skiddy pretty hard, long hours in the skiddy trying to get her pieces. Is that thing still going to be like rolling by the time you're done with it? The skis steering? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It'll still run? Yeah, you kind of been beating our stuff up. spending i feel like you know evans he doesn't like go under the radar like everyone knows that
Starting point is 00:18:49 he's beating our stuff up but you've kind of been like just sly about it where like you just hit it and quit it real quick and then like we're on to the next thing and then we're like hey who destroyed our lawnmower and then big wrench is like Spencer we're like yeah he's pissed full yeah we're like oh jean you didn't have to pull out the whole name on us right there the full government name and then we're like what's going on with the skid steer attachment And Gavin is just like, yeah, Spenny fucked that one up. I haven't really noticed it, but the wrenches are definitely, they're the ones fixing this stuff.
Starting point is 00:19:21 They're taking names on what you're breaking. They're keeping track, yeah. It's because I had admitted it to doing it, though. Well, that's good. That's why. It's because I told them. I said, hey, I broke the skid steer. Usually it just gets parked there and then nobody says anything about it.
Starting point is 00:19:37 That's when I have not happened. The reason why they knew about the skid steer is because I broke it. And then I was like, all right, I needed to use it. So I had to fix it. So I asked Gavin. And I was like, what should I do? You want to weld this or should I just go out there and fix? So I just went out there and fixed it on my own.
Starting point is 00:19:49 Really? Yeah, I needed to use it still. Nice. You're fixing. You're fixing. I'm breaking, but I'm fixing. I want to fix the mower too, but I left back to Canada. A lot of shit does get broke on the daily that's like not a part of the videos, not a part of, you know, content.
Starting point is 00:20:05 And it's just like, that's just the cost of running the operations around here. Like there's something that is constantly being mowed or weed, or weed, or transported dirt removal or moving things around it's just like such an operation that things break so i understand that i don't really lose much sleep over that at all but uh it's just kind of getting to the point where there's so many moving pieces and then when things do break and you're like they're out of commission there for a little bit and then we got the wrenches on five other projects and we are like yo can we get this fixed because it's got to be used to keep things moving because there's just so many
Starting point is 00:20:43 moving parts around here. Anybody who farms knows that drill, I'm sure. The thing too is like, it's not like sometimes stuff is like needs to happen like that because we're filming and it needs to go and when I broke the skids here, we were moving the cars around so I was like rushing. I wasn't taking my time. I was like ripping the
Starting point is 00:21:00 cars and the car slid back and broke the fork and it was just like God dang it like. I get it. It's all it goes, bud. I was ripping to try to get the stuff out and get the video done with and. Yeah. No, it's That's just kind of how it goes. Like, if there's one thing that we are all okay with is, like, things are going to break.
Starting point is 00:21:18 Like, when I was growing up, if things broke, like, my dad would get so mad at me. Like, if I broke things, and now I just know that it's just kind of just how it goes, just wear and tear. But it's pretty gnarly how much moving parts are going on. Speaking of broken stuff, I'm trying to track down. Okay, so Gavin hit the rail for the second time on my three-wheeler. Totally fine. Horrible crash.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Epic crash. Bent the forks on the three-wheeler. No big deal. and he's like, I think he was trying to make a video segment out of it or something, but he's like, Mike, I'm going to get you a new three-wheeler. I'm like, full wheeler. A full wheeler, like, I'm pretty sure you just bent the forks. I don't think anything else is wrong with it.
Starting point is 00:21:54 He's like, yeah, but they're really hard to find, so I'm going to track down a new wheeler for you. What do you want? I'm like, I don't want another three-wheeler. I just want this one fixed. I just want you to not ride mine when you're trying to hit the rail. And it was for a good cause, but long story short, he's like, yeah, the forks are really hard to get. and so I just like didn't even look I'm like yeah man I really wish I had some straight forks on this
Starting point is 00:22:14 I love this three wheeler and then I go on eBay and they are a dime a dozen and I just like thought he would know that they are like they used the same only uses barn find parts yeah exactly so they use the same like not they're the non suspension for like
Starting point is 00:22:31 10 years on like a shit load of three wheelers and so like I bought for literally $65 and had my stepdad powder code him and he just texted back and goes where'd you find those you should say a barn find yeah you should be like oh I've been
Starting point is 00:22:48 doing a lot of barn finds like searching through them and they were 600 but yep stuff breaks anyway I was just like I feel like Gavin should know that those forks for a diamond doesn't yeah trying to buy me a new three wheeler I probably shouldn't have said anything but speaking of stuff breaking man how about that wooden dirt bike we just uh
Starting point is 00:23:05 it's stronger than one would have thought yeah like if we would have just Kept riding it normally. Anything but hitting gap jumps, you would have been chilling on it for a while. I think the wrenches could, they're damn near Amish at this point. Oh yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:19 Building wooden dirt bikes. It looked fantastic. Road great. Spenny ended up cracking it, breaking it on the jumps. Just the way they used to do it back in the day. Is that a wood? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Yeah. They can fix it too to slap the metal swing arm back on there. Oh, true. Yeah. You could just get the metal swing arm on it. It'll be back. That one was the quickest turnaround in a while. Like usually like these projects
Starting point is 00:23:39 are taking like four to eight weeks a lot of the builds that they're doing and uh like gavin will be on one big wrench will be on one and they kind of just like shift back and forth of like when they get done but this one was just a quicker turnaround and uh i honestly just expected them to make like a two by four ask frame yeah and then i was expecting two yeah make it super janky and then when it broke them being like yeah what did you expect it's a wooden dirt bike but like that just shows like the talent that they have and they don't half ass anything anymore or not that they ever did but they just like they just don't they just won't do it like if they're going to do it they're going to do it like 100% how it should be done which is awesome and when they
Starting point is 00:24:24 were like shaving the things down to get like the front fender yeah like the front fender that was very legit it could have just been a plank it could have been a plank but they shaved it down to look better and the frame wasn't going anywhere like the swing arm they had to it just had to be so so thin at some point but uh like i don't know it just like blew my mind that they didn't just go the easier route with like the time frame that they had but they still just made it exactly how they would have made it in like four weeks but instead they just didn't just rushed through it but yeah it honestly is impressive and you you said they built it how they should or something like that which is funny because nothing we've ever given them is like normal.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Like the most normal thing that they've had to make in the last year was the first ever Stark three-wheeler. You know, like other than that, it's pretty much uncharted territory. Like, who just builds a friggin' wooden dirt bike? There's no forms to look at like, how'd you build your wooden swing arm?
Starting point is 00:25:20 Yeah. One thing after another, yeah, with zero blueprints. Figure it out as you've got. Full custom. 100% full custom. That's what, I mean,
Starting point is 00:25:27 we get a ton of emails and DMs. like, I want, like, a blueprint on how to build the Cummins Ranger, but, like, people don't realize it would take twice as long just to make the blueprints because you're figuring out as you go. It'd be rad, but it's just hard enough just making it work in the time frame that they have. But it was super fun. I think we should fix it. It's like a little Lincoln Log work of art, kind of art piece.
Starting point is 00:25:52 I agree. It looks good. Yeah, in the shop somewhere. Dude, shout out CJ for finding my old dirt bike, too. Yeah, dude. What are the odds? what are the yacht that is insane so ben's very first dirt bike it was a was a 2001 ttr 90 yeah that he had when he was a little kid and he would ride and then i'd ride my little dirt bike next to
Starting point is 00:26:12 him anyways i'm scrolling facebook marketplace like i do and i'm not even in the market for a ttr 90 or even really pit bikes in general and it just is on my home screen that's what i was wondering a little blue dirt bike i go it looks like ben's old bike you know like click it i'm like man This is the exact same year and everything, I think. The seven, the seven, they're, like, so recognizable. I see the stickers, but when I knew it was yours is when I saw the monster sticker. I go, wait a second. And then I saw the DC.
Starting point is 00:26:41 I saw the Sunstar. Obviously, the seven. I go, holy shit. And it had the pro-taper pillow top grips. And I was like, this is Ben's old bike. So then that's why that one podcast, I just dipped out and I wasn't in it. Oh. Yeah, because I wanted to get this bike.
Starting point is 00:26:57 I was just worried someone else would, for some reason, and buy it. So I was like, I got to get over there and pick this up right now because that thing's priceless essentially. Yeah. It's definitely priceless. When we're filming and I don't know if you said something regarding like dirt bikes or what or what the alley-up into it was, but I was like if he's about to surprise me with like a new 250 dirt bike right now, like it'll be sweet, but I don't know if I really need a new 250 dirt bike. I mean, it'd be like surprising you with the Lambo. No.
Starting point is 00:27:28 No, no, no. No, I'd be stoked. Well, I know you would be, but I'm saying it'd be like surprising you is something that you literally already have. No, I would have just been like a little random, right? Yeah. And then, like, that's way cooler than any,
Starting point is 00:27:41 anything else you could have gotten me, honestly. Like, it's priceless. It's so sick. I just can't believe it still has the same stickers on it that you put on as a kid. The same grips. No wild. No other kid got their hands on it and just changed it all up. Destroyed it more than I did.
Starting point is 00:27:56 think they didn't ride it from what I could gather is there it had exchanged hands multiple times because obviously your dad sold that thing 15 years ago probably yeah so it's exchanged hands and it sounded like it was pretty far away and then this guy bought it for his grandkids like it managed to get back into within an hour radius of us I would say your face is that have to align for that to happen because think like when I pick up a bike I have a wrap on it you know and then and then like let's say there was a rap on it you probably wouldn't have known that that was Ben's no you wouldn't but I'm just saying, like, yeah, it's just this little kid bike, you know, with the same stickers and all that. But, yeah, no one modified it.
Starting point is 00:28:32 They didn't crash it and, like, have to put new grips on or decide to do, yeah. All the plastic was just cherry. It literally looked the same as when he was a kid. Yeah. Like the bend marks and stuff where it gets light. It's cool. And, like, I said it in the video, but the impact that that dirt bike had, like, that dirt bike got me and a, riding dirt bikes, obviously, which became, like, me and CJ's thing together.
Starting point is 00:28:59 We met you guys because you guys rode four-wheelers. That's what brought us together. Back when you were more accepting. Yeah, right? You let anybody hang out. Yeah, yep. One thing after another grew into Seaboy's TV. So it's like the little things from our past that built us into being where we are today.
Starting point is 00:29:19 If my parents would have never got me that dirt bike, like we wouldn't be sitting here. Like we wouldn't have a chance. Pretty crazy. We just wouldn't have had the interest that, like, started, you know. It'd be hard to make a C-Boy's TV channel on, like, tennis or something, you know? Yeah, it wouldn't hit the same. Soccer, what was your other sport, soccer? Golf.
Starting point is 00:29:35 We do like that. We do like that, yeah. But it's cool and it's just like, it's just paying homage, I guess, to, like, everything. And, like, you asked me, Ryan, if you could go back and tell yourself at seven years old or eight or nine when I was riding that dirt bike, where you'd be today. I won wouldn't believe. leave it because I always like dreamed big as a kid I was always taught that like like dream big and you can achieve it and I always wanted the most in my life and I don't think that young Ben could comprehend like where we are today and believe it honestly like it's crazy just like I guess what
Starting point is 00:30:15 we've been able to like achieve because of the love of riding dirt bikes is kind of how it started and then one thing after another but like it's absolutely. insane like what it's grown to and like it's all thanks to the people listening right now and like the people that have subscribed and bought merch but like it's just wild to think that it all started from just like the love of riding there might have a tear in the eye here after hearing that bin I mean it's crazy dude it's it's it really is like it's special dude I can't stress enough too I said this when you ask that but like CJ picking up a camera and like filming us like We wouldn't be here if it wasn't for
Starting point is 00:30:56 CJ doing that too, which I think doesn't get enough credit. And there's the whole like, it's never too late thing. I always tell people that too. So you got that dirt bike at such a young age. And for a split second, I was like, man, Ben's been riding forever. Like, what's it going to take to like get good? And I didn't get a dirt bike until I was
Starting point is 00:31:14 18 and I felt like I was too late to the game. I don't know. I'm just saying you, if you're 30 or 40, you could still get a dirt bike and like be a part of the movie. of how awesome two wheels is or filming is never too late i'm not sure if mike really ever did get good he fucking rear-ended me today i got i got good i know somebody has to tell you that but i got i got all right i got all right remember when he still rear-ended me though mike yeah because
Starting point is 00:31:42 you were in the way you were lapper bro lap traffic yeah dude that old that old ttr 90 does not stand up even close to a modern day pit bike dude it's kind of crazy granted i mean you're running like a full bbr bill yeah full bill whatever pit bike but but yeah dude that the 90 was still great though it still rips yeah it's all things considered that to me is like a well same for like a stock 110 that's like a true pit bike where you just kind of chill on it sit on it ride it the craziest part about that thing is i'm pretty sure your dad bought it for it was either 700 or 900 bucks back when you were a kid, and I ended up paying $1,200 for that thing 20 years later.
Starting point is 00:32:26 So that thing appreciated in value. I'm, like, not surprised, but that's wild. Isn't that crazy? It just more so just shows the value of the dollar has just gone down. Yeah. I got to put that thing in a glass case. I'm done riding after, after jumping it like that, breaking the foot peg off. And then then it rear end and you.
Starting point is 00:32:43 Yeah. Clean it up. And then, like, when you build your house, do like, some kind of ledge that's, like, up high, raised up and, like, have it there, like, in your house. I'm going to pitch it to Greta. She's probably not going to like it, but I'm going to say that dirt bike paid for this house. I just, I know, it's like I can't wait for the, why? Why do you want to display a dirt bike?
Starting point is 00:33:01 It's like an X-Games bike. Or you could have, or you save it, and then your kids can learn out of ride on it. That'd be cool. It's like when, like, when you win a championship or something, you put your championship bike in the house. Yeah, exactly like that. TTR 90. It's just like a small bike, too. People are walking and be like, why is that little tiny bike up on your shelf?
Starting point is 00:33:21 It's not quite old enough to look like real vintage. Yeah, it doesn't look. You know, like when something looks old, so you're like, oh, this is obviously a legacy piece, but it's just kind of like a medium old dirt bike. You're going to buy another dirt bike for somebody? No, I got to. She found my first quad.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Yeah, yeah. He's going to buy it for me. Yeah. I think actually I destroy everything. I don't think it ever made it out of my possession. I think it just bored into the ground. We were supposed to light it on fire. My red renegade?
Starting point is 00:33:48 Didn't yours like go to the scrap yard or something? I have no idea what happened. to it, honestly. You actually don't know. I'm pretty sure. I'm pretty sure it went back to Seaberg's. Okay. Just now you motors.
Starting point is 00:33:58 How many? I'm sure they gave me like $8 for it. Ken, how old were you when you got that 800? First time I met Kenny had an 800 renegade, which is a lot of power for a kid. A big freaking. I don't even remember.
Starting point is 00:34:10 I know they made. Whenever Ryan got his, that's when I got that one. Mike, you think he remembers it. So like ballpark me, I guess. Like 12 or 13.
Starting point is 00:34:21 Okay, yeah, it's a lot of power. Yeah, you weren't driving a car yet. No, no. And they just keep making wheelers and stuff more powerful. Like, I love that 12-year-old age where you'll just get like a DM that's like, yo, you only have a 250 dirt bike. I have a 1,000. And you're like, okay.
Starting point is 00:34:37 Yeah, okay. I know this for sure, though. I am going to teach my kids how to ride dirt bikes because if you learn how to ride dirt bikes, you are light years ahead of other people with motorized skills. I agree. Driving cars, four-wheelerers or snowmobiles or anything like that. But like dirt bikes, you get the balance. You get your like situational awareness, hand-eye coordination.
Starting point is 00:35:04 I'd say everything, dude. But specifically just like cars, it still blows my mind that like, let's say 14 is the first time you've gotten in a car. And you're like, okay, we're going to put it in a drive here and steer it. I'm like, what are you? This should be easy. That's actually a good point. Well, like, the general majority of people, the first vehicle that they operate is a car. Car's the biggest, it's the fastest.
Starting point is 00:35:29 It's the most, like, out of touch. Like, you're way more out of touch with a car when you're driving it than you are with a dirt bike or a, like, a side-by-side little buggy. It's kind of crazy. A bunch of people who, like, legit don't know how to drive and are just figuring it out in a car. I feel like riding bikes makes me, like, such a better driver on the road even. Yeah. Just because, like, I, like, know what it feels like to spin. the tire so when I'm driving on like ice and snow and it's like super icy I know to like be super
Starting point is 00:35:55 light on the throttle so that I don't like spin the tires and slide into the ditch I'm always like using my my like dirt bike skill like I'd say a lot in life honestly uh all right Ben's going to buy a dirt bike as well he's gonna go buy spennie's first dirt bike but yeah dude like I'm thinking even if you don't pursue like dirt biking like you're not like gung-ho all in like trying to race or anything if you just have like a farm four-wheeler and you happen to put a lot hours on that you're gonna like be better off dude my first ever rig that I would drive around was my grandpa zero steer lawn mower bro I love that thing that's hilarious too like I used to practice I go I want to mow the lawn so bad yeah but they wouldn't let you turn the blades
Starting point is 00:36:34 you're like seven and so I would just yeah it would just drive around but I would practice going in lines without the mower on which to me is the most insane thing now they were all scared of the blades yeah we're gonna do jump underneath it scared of me running the mower too when I was young dude next time your parents come back we got to ask him about you smuggling grisly how did we not dude i thought about it this week i was like oh my gosh yeah forgot about that i want to incriminate him i wasn't sure it's already out there now ryan you were saying you wish you had your first quad yeah my renegade remember that thing but then we flipped it over backwards at uh that off road park when cody put diesel on his dirt bike
Starting point is 00:37:11 i love that that day is just known by that the sand day yeah snap the bar off and then uh yeah I like snap the bars and the shifter. Like the whole transmission, that was the problem, is the transmission got like broke. Holy shit. Sorry. Dude, I texted my dad because I want him to come down and see the dirt bike because he's going to lock out.
Starting point is 00:37:38 And so I texted him and I was like, yo, are you coming out tonight? I want to show you something. And he was like, probably. And then like 10 minutes later it goes, send me a sneak preview pick.
Starting point is 00:37:49 And then like 10 minutes. later, he goes, I already saw your tat, my tattoo. Oh, yeah. I forgot to tell him about that too. And then the podcast went live. Oops. Um, and I said, it's not that. Ha-ha. And he goes, what is it? Question mark, question mark. Like, he's got no chill. Just say it's a vehicle. And then he just called me. Say it's a vehicle, because then he'll for sure come. I mean, he definitely won't guess it's your first dirt bike. He's going to be very surprised. I knew I shouldn't have said anything. I wasn't sure. You know, he's not even thinking about work. Yeah. Tweaking on it now. He's going to be thinking all about it. He's going to close the office early.
Starting point is 00:38:20 But yeah, I was riding that bike and my older brother ran into me and broke my foot, told me I couldn't tell my parents. And then we told this story, yeah. Yeah, and then today when Mike hit me, I thought I was good. But now I think my, my ankle's little jammed up. You were so tangled up. You were so tangled up. Just pop up a picture of me laying on the ground.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Neither have you moved. You were just like, you know, because. You were down. Yeah, you're done bad. I was like kind of laughing, but then I walked up and you're like next. Yeah, why were you sitting like that? Well, because I was just tangled. I was.
Starting point is 00:38:50 tangled up like on the ground and Mike was also tangled up and the bike was on my leg and so my leg was kind of stuck and then you picked it up and I was just I don't know you still laid there stayed in that position I was like oh he's he's tweaked on the ground my ass my like it kind of hurts it does hurt right now actually just sitting there's got to be sore I am sore I mean Mike just I honestly wasn't that tangled my foot was just on fire I thought I broke it. Well, just take your sock off so we can look at it. Mike, I don't understand how you didn't see him and just like swear.
Starting point is 00:39:27 I didn't have my head up. So you just looked down the whole time when you read? Who said that? You said you didn't have your head up. I didn't have my head up in that very rookie. Rookie mistake, Mike. I agree. How far ahead are you supposed to look like?
Starting point is 00:39:38 He wasn't that far. He wasn't right at the bottom. He was like a ways away. We were concentrated on, we're like getting shots of single jumps. So all I have to do is hit the. two jumps in front of me and look good doing it that's it and so like i wasn't like yeah i guess i just wasn't paying attention for potentially someone stopped at the bottom of the jump it is the one thing that i notice is that there's so many people moving around it's hard to keep track of everybody
Starting point is 00:40:04 like when i'm riding i'm riding around the track but then somebody's like driving their truck behind a jump somewhere else but we're filming on another jump like it you just never know it's so hard to be aware of everybody because there's so many of us and everybody's riding around and doing different stuff. Yeah, you come over and there's like a guy on a three-wheeler parked in your landing spot. I mean, the same, even that pitter track, like I've almost hit Gavin on the track. I mean, that's the example. But yeah, I would say, I mean, looking ahead is you want to be looking pretty far ahead,
Starting point is 00:40:34 but you hit the jump and then you're looking back to see if somebody's coming behind you. It's another good thing that riding bike teaches you is to look ahead. Yeah. Like when you're driving, people, I think, like look just right in front of them. You're supposed to look out? I mean, I don't know. Yeah, it was a big crash, though. I was scared, honestly.
Starting point is 00:40:50 I thought you guys were joking. It was a pretty uncalled for it. It sounded like a big football hit, dude. There was like this like, crash. It sounded like shoulder pads. Yeah. Shoulder pads. After it happened, I was just laying out of the ground going,
Starting point is 00:41:06 classic. Yeah. Classic. Like, you're out doing like the least. Minimal. Yeah, the least risk or lowest impact thing. And that's when it's. It happens.
Starting point is 00:41:18 How would it feel, though, crashing that bike 15 years later? Yeah, it felt good. Brought me back, though. There you go. Definitely brought me back. I was like, the bike that started it is going to be the one that ends it. I've crashed pit bikes more than anything. Pit bikes are sketchy, dude.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Yeah, it's the small wheels. You can catch a rain run and be over the bars. I always wanted a pit bike. My parents would never let me have one because I was racing, but like, yeah, pit bike, my dad's like, it's too dangerous. That's where you're going to get hurt. Yeah, I don't know. It's a little ridiculous, but yeah, there probably is some truth to it.
Starting point is 00:41:47 We probably have had some of the worst injuries in Mike's knee. Dude, how about, yeah, I just thought a TikTok the other day of Mike crashing. My knee. And it's so funny. It was legitimately the first time I've ever rode in a 110. Because right before it happened to, which I completely forgot about, is I go, you want us to film it? And you go, nah, it's probably not even worth it.
Starting point is 00:42:07 And I think CJ, or if I was filming, was like, we'll see what happens. And then you hop on it. You literally hop on it, go over a hill. And then about 10 yards later, you whiskey throttle. But I think I saw someone filming, so I'm like, well, I'm not going to do anything cool. That's why I initially told them not to film. So I'm going to ride like a goon. So don't ride like a goon if you don't know how to ride.
Starting point is 00:42:30 You need to be good at riding to ride like a goon. I figured that out quickly. Yeah, and I broke my foot. Yeah, did end up raking it? It's right. It was a severe sprain. But yeah, you couldn't walk. Even worse.
Starting point is 00:42:41 Yeah. I hurt my hand on the pit bike. Yeah. Oh, you have a backflip in it. It's a little different. Well, I mean, I never get hurt on my big bikes, or like, rarely. Go knock on that West Tower right now, brother. No, yeah, I've crashed on pit bikes way more than anything, anything.
Starting point is 00:42:58 Cody's hand, too, and he back-lipped. Yeah. Cody back-clipsing his hand. True. That was almost bad. Hitters can just bite you. Yeah, they were like, they're just like dead weight. It's false confidence.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Yeah. False confidence, honestly. You get on there, you think that you're good. You get overconfident. Like, you almost respect the big bike more. Like there's also more room for forgiveness, more suspension, bigger wheel. The suspension travel on a big bike does forgive you a lot. Kind of like a bear on a unicycle on a pit bike.
Starting point is 00:43:27 You actually got a clutch too on those. It's way easier to get off tilt too in the air. That's the biggest thing. For real. Like, I don't know what it is about pit bikes. It's the small wheels for the little bump or the big bumps. And then you get off kilter in the air. I don't know what it is, but just dead weight.
Starting point is 00:43:41 So we had We Fest this weekend, which is like the country music festival that's our hometown line-up was pretty weak i'm gonna be honest but there was one artist that was in town that i was super excited for and cj was there too the same night gavin adcock was so lit was he dude yeah so he's like a up-and-comin country artist that's like pretty core country i would say i think like country music has kind of like started to stray away maybe towards more like hip-hop yeah more poppy he's like a rock star he's got like the country twang to him but yeah he's the concert with a bottle of Jack and he ended it
Starting point is 00:44:20 with the bottle of Jack gone and he fucking threw that thing out into the crowd like yeah he was he ended it drunk yeah he was a rock like his whole his whole band was sipping off the bottle right and so I'm pretty sure all of them were drunk and he he threw the bottle of Jack jumped out into the crowd took his shirt off jumped out in the crowd
Starting point is 00:44:39 was running up through like the VIP section got back to GA like jumped into the GA crowd was singing secure Security was losing their damn minds. Yeah, I bet. Because they were like, how do we control this, right? And then next thing, you know, he's coming back through, like, walks them back through, like, the VIP. And he's, he had to have been pretty larried up.
Starting point is 00:45:00 But I think that's just this thing. And it was awesome. And a lot of people afterwards, like, older people were like, oh, that was just too much. That was. Oh, really? Yeah. And I was like, what? That was the only good concert of the whole weekend.
Starting point is 00:45:14 The whole night. Yeah. So it was awesome. Like, if you're. a country artist and you're trying to get the crowd into it get pissed drunk I guess and freaking jump out there yeah jump out in the crowd it was lit and then treaty oak revival was lit too they were really good they were so good they were so yeah you were there that night but like the whole crowd of treaty oak revival was like throwing their beer cans and like water bottles up in the air so you like look back and it was just like it was it was crazy it was awesome yeah man it's just
Starting point is 00:45:44 crazy how many subs i run and do at a country music festival like legit can't walk like five feet without just saying what's up everyone was nice and it was it was awesome meeting everyone yeah but it is insane there and a motorcycle race would have like top demo yeah it was fun there because everyone's so stoked well they're larried but like everybody was so stoked between meeting people that i hadn't met before and then everybody that we did know it's like a freaking school reunion it's like a town reunion like everybody around here goes to we fest Like, older people will come up in 40s or 50s or 60s and be like, hey, can I get a photo? Like, my kids are big fans.
Starting point is 00:46:21 But for them to know that, they still got to like watch to be able to recognize you. Yeah, at least recognize a face in the crowd. Which is cool. I think that it's like kind of just shows that the videos have like kind of reached like a family dynamic of the whole family can come together to like watch the vids. That's my favorite part. That's like, I mean, there's, I appreciate how anyone watches it, whether it's on a phone tablet with your family alone. But, like, sitting down in your living room on a Thursday night and tuning in is my favorite thing to hear ever. Yeah, a lot of families.
Starting point is 00:46:51 It's the best. Yeah, that's the coolest thing ever. Like, they watch it, like, it's their favorite show because for a lot of people and families, it is. And, I mean, there's no cooler feeling. Yeah, over 50% of our views actually come from a TV. Oh, shit. That's awesome. Okay, so that's even cooler.
Starting point is 00:47:07 That's why, like, you're seeing now especially, I think just YouTube videos are becoming more of a production. which you want to watch that on TV now. Yeah. And when you're watching on the TV, then it's like you get the mom that's walking by and she's always seen it. And that's why we're getting more views now and just more subscribers.
Starting point is 00:47:26 But now it's like, it makes sense, I guess, why more parents say they watch them now and also they recognize us. Yeah, 50%. Holy. I talk to a mom and a dad and they're like, the videos are the only things that get my kids on the couch at the same time as me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:42 They won't even sit down to talk. me, but they'll sit down to watch the video every Thursday. They're just, like, so stoked. It was pretty awesome. That is awesome. I heard you guys always talk about Wii Fest, but I couldn't believe how big that place was. Even the stage, the stage is massive.
Starting point is 00:47:56 Like, I thought it was going to be a couple thousand people and nothing crazy. This is like, it's a crazy festival. Yeah, it's like 40,000 people come into our town. And, like, the biggest town near to us, like, where a couple of us live is, like, 7,500 people. So it's still pretty small. So it, like... Explodes.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Yeah, it explodes. It's always sad, though, because that means, like, summer's pretty much over. I mean, not really. Not really, but it is for most people. Dude, I say that.
Starting point is 00:48:27 I say, We Fest is the end of summer and Haydays in a few weeks is like, it's full-blown fall after hey-days. But, dude, the Saturday, or no, the Sunday morning after Wee Fest,
Starting point is 00:48:39 it was like 62 degrees and cloudy and windy. And I go, like I said, summer's over dude it's sad it goes so quick it really does it doesn't have to be over you know no we'll still have good times but just like the generic
Starting point is 00:48:52 summer night of where it's like 85 degrees still at midnight and it's hot it's calm out and everybody's around car hearts are back on I love that guy you see that guy I know that guy yeah car hearts are back on have you guys seen the uh American Rejects band popping up and doing like the pop-up shows
Starting point is 00:49:13 in, like, fans' backyards? No. Like, all American rejects? Yeah. They wrote the song Move along, they have a bunch of classics. Gives you a ton of fun.
Starting point is 00:49:26 I used to play Rooscape while listening to that on Limewire. Dude, holy shit. That was a sentence. That was such a sentence. That was a crazy sense. Back when Napser was free and then they got sued.
Starting point is 00:49:39 Yep. They've been doing pop-up shows just in fans' backyards. That's cool. just as, like, basically, college parties. But they get lit. Really? Yeah, because, I mean, they're like a big band. Yeah, no, they're huge.
Starting point is 00:49:49 They're huge, right? And so they'll do a show in a fan's backyard, and then it'll turn into, like, Project X. Just, like, turn the house down. Yeah, like, every time. What? That's what always, it intrigues me when a band, let's say, a band that normally plays for 40,000 people,
Starting point is 00:50:05 or even 10,000 people. And then if they play in the backyard of someone's house and a thousand people show up, which isn't even that much for their show. It's going to explode a house. So they've been doing it. They'll pull into town and they'll post on their TikTok like, all right, here's the address, be there tonight.
Starting point is 00:50:23 And they'll give like an hour heads up, two hours heads up. And then, you know, a couple thousand people will show up. How old are these guys now? It's got to be in 40s, probably. But it's pretty sweet, dude. Like, it's really cool to see. And they started doing this, I think, because they maybe weren't selling out big shows. And now this kind of just like,
Starting point is 00:50:42 reignited yeah it's crazy like you were ones at the top and now you're back down again how quick you can get back shot right back up to the top i mean i say it all the time it's just there's always all it takes is one instance i mean you could go from being a guy in our video that everyone hates and then in one moment everyone loves you yeah i mean the the tides change quick and people forget pretty quick too yeah people forget very quick dude it's like which is sad just go on ticot and just look up uh all american rejects and it'll be the top one. Yeah, this video's crazy.
Starting point is 00:51:15 Can you imagine going to a concert in the backyard and only filming the lead singer? That's what the drummer's been saying for years. I didn't get any screen time. You just stood there and only filmed him, nothing else. No backyard party shot. If you guys weren't YouTubers, what would you want your profession to be?
Starting point is 00:51:34 Country artist or just some kind of musician. I'd agree. For sure. That's what I said too. I was like DJ. Being a musician is so, We were just hanging out with our new buddy, Rick Duff. He wrote a song called Ford Ranger.
Starting point is 00:51:47 And it was, uh, the lyrics are based around our Ford Ranger. And so Rick Duff was in town and we were filming a music video with him the other day. And, uh, I was just like, I think that being a musician is the sickest thing ever. You get to basically do nothing all day. You show up for a sound check. And then you get to do nothing for another couple hours. And then you get to go and perform in front of a bunch of people that love you. Like it's got to be like the.
Starting point is 00:52:12 coolest feeling ever like the most euphoric feeling ever to hear people singing back and obviously if you're like not a big artist in general it's definitely like a hit to the ego i'm sure when people don't show up to your show or don't know your songs you gotta work your way up but yeah yeah i mean everybody starts at nothing and builds their way up so if you could build your way up to become a big artist i think that would be so sick i mean i'm sure there's so much more to it and you're constantly traveling around and all that but also at the same time it's like once you make it some of these guys they only release maybe like an album a year if not an album every two years so like what you're in the studio you got to write 20 songs i guess and most of the time they have ghost writers but uh i agree
Starting point is 00:52:54 it would be the best career it is hard to speak on the work they put in being that like everyone would say the same about us exactly they'd be like what do you mean all you do is is make a fun video and then do nothing else yeah and rick was kind of he's i mean he's like i see a lot of similarities to YouTube obviously he's like the fun kind of comes first the point in the camera the the getting the video out the get in the views he's like that's cool same with the song it's fun to make a song get it out it gets the views and then he's like but then all of a sudden you need t-shirts and you need someone to plan out your your tour and book your shows and same for like we need lots of planning turns into a business really fast yeah i think that's just surrounding yourself with like
Starting point is 00:53:32 the right people and having enough of a business mind that you can right capitalize on it yeah A performer would be the coolest thing, though. Yeah, it would be sick. We start a band. We just, we just switch up. Who do you think would be the lead singer? Who's the best singer in the crew? Probably you.
Starting point is 00:53:47 No, I don't think. You got a nice voice. I heard you singing the other day at lunch. Thank you. Ben doesn't know lyrics, though. He makes his own lyrics up when he's singing. I don't know. I don't remember.
Starting point is 00:53:57 I don't memorize songs for shit. That's what we'll make each show unique because each show will be different. He's up there, it's true. You never know what I'm going to say up there. But, I mean, there's singing. There's obviously rapping, too. None of us can wrap either, but... Can you guys play any instruments? The drums a little bit, the trumpet a little bit.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Okay, so Mike's on the trumpet. Mike, you got... I bet you can play the flute, said you've never played it, but you do have a guitar in your office. Well, I haven't played that guitar. Like, I could pick guitar back up, and I could not be lead guitar. Uh-uh, but I could be back up. I think it's easier now than ever to be a musician. There's probably a lot more competition.
Starting point is 00:54:35 You don't even really have to have that good of a voice Because they can just fix that and coached The barrier to call yourself a musician You really just need like I have one song on Spotify That has a million views And you can call yourself a music I think if you have a social media mind Then you can be a good musician honestly
Starting point is 00:54:54 Like I think that if you can just make good TikTok content or Instagram content And get people to care about you Your music doesn't have to be that good Gavin Adcock is a pretty good example of it. Granted, he does have good music, but the reason I found out about him is through TikTok. Like, he's, like, posting a TikTok video every single day.
Starting point is 00:55:14 Doing crazy shit. Yeah, just saying crazy shit, starting controversies. Yeah, living like a rock star, but he's getting people to talk about him. And, like, I think that's kind of what you got to do. I was telling Rick Duff that, too. I was like, bro, if you're not posting on TikTok, like you're immediately behind the rest of the guys that are
Starting point is 00:55:30 because it seems like that's kind of what's pushing things. Yeah, dude, the short form content. for sure. And that's not all of it. There are songs that prevail without having anyone know who's behind it. It's cool. We're at a point. There was a stint where it's like, oh, yeah, you're trying to, yeah, you're just trying
Starting point is 00:55:47 to push on TikTok, though. That's not going to, like, amount to anything. But now, I don't think anyone can say that. I mean, I think you got to do more than just push on TikTok. But I think you should definitely. That's one of your biggest tools right now. And let's say that's where you're pulling your biggest numbers, but you're still making songs.
Starting point is 00:56:03 Like, you can't shit on that at all. Taylor Holder did it, that TikToker. He went on, went on... He kind of had a transition, too. He went on TikToker to... He went on tour with Post Malone. Really? That's sick.
Starting point is 00:56:14 I guarantee you. He was sitting down and he figured out, he's like, yep, musicians definitely the route to go. Well, Alex Warren, bro. Same with him. Alex Warren was a YouTuber and then a TikToker, maybe vice versa. And then he switched to music and everyone
Starting point is 00:56:28 just shit on him and was like, buddy, you're a TikToker, buddy, you're a YouTuber. You can't make music. And now he's like, biggest artist of the last couple months. Dude, his streaming numbers are insane. Wow. They're insane.
Starting point is 00:56:40 You got a song bigger than Drake's right now. Dude, I think if you can blow up on, let's just say, YouTube, oftentimes those people, like, you don't just have a team to do your shit. You're the camera guy. You're the fucking writer. You're the producer. You're the editor. And you're the talent on screen.
Starting point is 00:56:56 So, like, anyone who can accomplish that, like, you got a pretty wide skill set. And oftentimes, I think those people can move into different. ventures and do well at them. I mean, you just look at the line, like Taylor Holder, Alex Warren, Logan Paul, Jake Paul, like a lot of big YouTubers. I mean, they have been able to transition. It is funny to think we are like one step away from essentially being able to be music makers, like someone who could produce us and then us putting some time and planning
Starting point is 00:57:25 into lyrics and... Dude, honestly, we have the rest of it. I could see it happening too. Like, I'd be down to make a good song. It's just got to be good. Yeah. Like it's just got to be good. Especially with like computers and AI now.
Starting point is 00:57:34 You can make, like, you know, the backbeat and all that shit. I don't know. We got a lot of tools. That's what I'm saying. Like, it might be, I think it's probably easier and ever to become a musician. My brother, he writes music and he knows how to, like, produce and stuff. I should just have him. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:57:50 But it's got to be good enough where people can't roast you for it. They're going to roast you no matter what right away. Yeah, but if it's a good song, then people will actually be like, oh, it's a pretty good song. I think it sucks. Yeah, I mean, if it sucks, then you're really in trouble. But I think even if it's good. What genre are we going, you know? Spenny collabs with Nickelback.
Starting point is 00:58:07 Dude, I think kind of a DJ where you're making like the noises would be the easiest. Fucking put some noises together. You got to have an ear for it, obviously, but. Barely. Yeah, some of these songs, dude. We got mics. We got mics. Ken, can you spin a track and we'll start singing?
Starting point is 00:58:23 I don't know if I can do that. Ken, I can't even spin a track back there, dude. I think you're pro. Well, we can get Justin to like, like ghost mix some of this stuff. Dude, if Ken was, if we had a band, Ken would be the bass player. He would just say the whole time. Glass is on.
Starting point is 00:58:40 Yeah. He'd have his big horn hat on, his big horn helmet. There's this guy on Instagram, just since we're speaking of music, his name's Ari at home. He streams. He's a streamer.
Starting point is 00:58:51 He has his beats making, like piano, beat pad, whatever, streaming. And he just goes around NYC. He finds people to rap. And then he's like, all right, what kind of beat do you want?
Starting point is 00:59:00 And then he cooks up the beat on the spot. And then they rap, and you just, have to go check it out there is people who know how to rap and sing incredibly well this crawling around n yc everywhere it blows my mind the talent that he finds on a daily basis and you just have to go check it out it's so good are you at home guys that can freestyle that's a special talent the problem is like those guys that can freestyle it doesn't necessarily translate and into be able make like a good like hit song like a lot of these hit songs are just written by someone else and
Starting point is 00:59:31 then you go in you can have a literal shit voice and then the producer on the back end adds the beats and all the other shit and then fixes your your sound and then it sounds amazing i bet you the guy producing the song might be one of the most important pieces yeah if not half of it you know you guys ever hear like juice world get up and freestyle though like some of he was good some of his biggest songs are one take yeah you're really that's crazy yeah what's you guys's thoughts on dead artists like juice world like their families putting continuing to put out music after they're gone. Yeah, I just saw a collab between X, X, X, X, X, and Juice World.
Starting point is 01:00:07 I don't know. I mean, you know, obviously the producer made it, you know, mashed them together to make them work because it probably wasn't recorded as one. No, I think it's AI. Oh, you think so. I think a lot of it's AI. I think a lot of the voice. That's actually very possible, right?
Starting point is 01:00:21 I think, I think, I think a lot of it is. I think, but some of it, some of it is like they recorded parts of a song and they just hadn't put it out yet. And they were looking to finish. finish it or they were looking to have someone else come in and help complete it, you know, be a feature on it. So they have like this bank of half done songs and then they would sell them to other artists that are still alive and then hop in on it and make a, make a song and
Starting point is 01:00:44 I think you just like leave it up to the fans, I guess essentially like, if it's good, then like sure run it. Like if it's not just a giant money grab and you're actually wanting to put their art out there, obviously the families or whoever owns the rights are going to make money off of it but like rappers just like record songs and then just like put them on the hard drive well you know whatever they put them away that's it they don't see the light of day i think it helps them live on i agree but um but also like yeah again if it's for a money grab or if the music's just really shitty it's like what do you don't do that if it's shit song yeah you're gonna muddy up their
Starting point is 01:01:17 legacy yeah i do agree with that that it like does help their legacy live on but i think with let's say juice world for the case he's released like more songs after he's been dead than he has when he was alive. Dude, he wasn't popping that long. And my beef with that is, is they're literally called artists. And artists have a vision for how they want their song to come out and be portrayed to the world. And maybe they never put that song out for a reason.
Starting point is 01:01:44 And it kind of was almost like their choice to not publish it. And then now the family takes their name and just starts throwing stuff at the wall or even just puts things out that maybe the artist, the person who created it didn't want. out and then kind of gets all the benefit off it. I think that's like a weird place because I think there's never yeah there's never a right in a wrong way to do it which is like the toughest part because think like I've heard of stories where you have a buddy that wraps and I somehow get a hold of a couple of his songs and I just put him on SoundCloud. I'm like dude my buddy's so good but he's too scared to show the world I put his songs on SoundCloud even though he wasn't planning
Starting point is 01:02:23 on releasing them and they get a bunch of views and people are like damn yeah but if it's like Miller and you're going to the family goes all right if we put out this song that mac never released we're going to make 19 million dollars exactly money grab i think it's a dirty a dirty thing that's also kind of like what stage of development were these songs they like were they just in the studio one afternoon and just had some lyrics recorded or was it like this was part of an album that was 75% the way there didn't get released a little polishing touches on it's a good point it's a good point. I feel much more comfortable about like where they had a bunch of work into this rather than it's just some random studio words here and there. That's like really like playing the song.
Starting point is 01:03:04 Ken's like, I don't feel comfortable listening to this one boys. But yeah, I feel you. There's no right and wrong. Last one, but I'm just saying you could literally have that song in the studio where you just sat. You're like, dude, I just walked in there and I was just goofing off with my buddy. And then you make a hit. I don't know. There's no right or wrong way to do it. I had heard somewhere that Lil Wayne had like an absurd amount of songs unreleased. So I just looked up how many unreleased songs does Lil Wayne have? And top answer was Lil Wayne is rumored to have over one million unreleased songs. Oh my gosh, dude.
Starting point is 01:03:37 I think that's pretty inaccurate. But a lot. I've heard him say a lot. Well, let's say even if it was a thousand. Yeah, probably more than that. I bet more than that, dude. Yeah. Because like they oftentimes, you know, they're recording all these songs.
Starting point is 01:03:49 then it's like they got to choose what's going on the album and i mean that guy's been popping since what 2000s 2000s 2000s yeah yeah you know little wayne he used to be a part of that group what was this what was this group's name again turk fit why is little wayne still popping so much because he's just a legend dude when i was in middle school little wayne was the guy yeah he was like he was the top rapper guy he's the hot boys yeah the hot boys that's what i thought are you calling him little wayne i think the reason why they called him little wayne was because he was He was like 16 at the time, but he was young. He was little.
Starting point is 01:04:22 And I remember this music video, dude, they had the fucking PT cruisers and shit. It was lit. You had a PT. Sold it. That's lit. What was the origination of Lil? Why are all these rappers called Lil? There's so many.
Starting point is 01:04:36 I want to know that. How many rappers go by the name of Lil something? It's got to be hard to come up with a good rapper name these days. You put Lil in it and everyone's kind of like, okay. Lil Ryan. That works. You're good. That's actually not bad.
Starting point is 01:04:49 Big Ken. Little man, Jay. He was the youngest member of the time of the hot boys. Okay. On Spotify alone, in 2018, they were reported to have over 8,000 artists with Will at the start of their name. How many of those are overlaps? That's a lot, bro. You're out here trying to get a trademark.
Starting point is 01:05:08 Or at least a domain. I don't know if you guys watch it or not, but Tanner Fox just dropped a new video. Really? I haven't seen it yet. I watched it, too. This is a new GTR. Oh, okay. It's a GDR that he rebuilt.
Starting point is 01:05:22 Yep, saw a little bit about that. And honestly, I was happy to see that. I was like, because that was the kind of peak Tanner Fox days when he had guaxilla. Yeah. That thing is sick. And, uh... Yeah, rebranded the GTR. How is it?
Starting point is 01:05:33 Is it sick? I thought it was good. Yeah, that was pretty good. Yeah. He did like a little, uh, Fast and Furious tribute. Yeah. To the Paul Walker original R34 or 32, but it's cool. Yeah, Tanner Fox.
Starting point is 01:05:45 Making the comeback. He was, he was like, the first YouTuber that we had. had met. That was like how eye-opening it was. Like Jake Angeles. Yeah. Who also happens to be scooters with him. But when we met Tanner Fox, we were like, holy crap, how was this even possible? Like this kid is. He was like the first moving like this. Yeah. I think Tanner would even say this, though. It's just like when you're that young and you're exposed to that much money and success, I don't know how good it is for you, especially if you're not, I guess, mentally ready for it. I think the last couple of years have been pretty tough for him
Starting point is 01:06:20 That thing is nice He's been trying to figure out maybe his identity That thing is nice Holy smokes And the toughest thing And this happens at any age But think it happens the most at around that 18 year old age Is like how do you know who your friends are
Starting point is 01:06:33 You're your friend You get a couple close friends So you think And then you let them live with you and stuff And then like you just You truly don't know who your friends are I'd say it's like the make or break You know like you have the friends that are out partying
Starting point is 01:06:46 and you could be out partying or you could be out doing other stuff. It's kind of like the maker. It's like the maker break a couple of years, 16, 17, 18. Yeah. And even if you're partying, like, you got to make sure those friends aren't just using you to party harder. Party harder than they could have. If they're partying with you and, like, taking care of you at the same time, it's great. But a lot of times it's just like, yeah, my buddy, he likes to party, so I'm going to piggyback off him so I can party hard with him.
Starting point is 01:07:13 I don't really care how his well-being is. I'm glad we weren't so young when we, you know, we were young, but I'm glad that we weren't so independent and young when we made it, made it big. Yeah, I don't know. It's just like the internet's a pretty tough place to grow up if you're in front of that many people. Yeah. Especially if maybe you are validating your confidence off of what other people have to say.
Starting point is 01:07:36 It was crazy, though, just like hanging out with them back in 2018 or 2019, whenever we became 2020. 2020 right before uh COVID hit yeah just I guess I don't know being exposed to like I guess the success of someone like that pop in that way so eye opening I remember we went down there
Starting point is 01:07:56 and he had like his house he had a track just like his whole operation was like whoa he'd do it he's like oh this is this is possible this is cool and he was just kind of a just a normal dude did uh you guys see cleats new pool yeah yeah that's sick it's so awesome too the Chevy pool he made the right decision go so hard so dummy hard obviously i'm not digging an in-ground pool for myself right now
Starting point is 01:08:20 but i'm like why didn't i think of that that's awesome when they walk by the hot tub here george goes oh we should have done the hot tub in the shape of a turbo and i'm like damn that would have been a good idea you think chevi's paying them for that no which is actually crazy they should be they should be ben are you going to build your house sick like cleas yeah for sure um you're going to go lambo pool that'd be sick Lamborghini pool That'd be a cool shape That would be a cool shape
Starting point is 01:08:45 When Cletus was talking about building his house He was like I think I'm gonna just make it like So sick And do everything that I want to do And hopefully my wife is okay with it Which is exactly what I see he's doing Insert giant Chevy pool
Starting point is 01:09:03 Yeah It's so good That's actually so sick There's the happy medium Because it's like If you tell your wife We're getting an in-ground pool Yeah, she's going to be happy.
Starting point is 01:09:13 Well, like, people wouldn't know, though. People would come over and they'd go in there and be like, why is, what's the shape of this? From the house? Yeah, you probably don't really notice it. Even from here, how many years you got 1.6 on that? It's a great title and thumbnail. It's a good shape for a pool. You got the sun deck.
Starting point is 01:09:29 You got the wider spot for volleyball, and then you got the deep end. Looks better than a square. Like the Dodge logo wouldn't be a very good pool. Well, I guess then neither would the Lamborghini because it's just a badge. Yeah. Right? I was thinking of the, I was thinking of the rambigini, it's going to be cool. Yeah, you guys come over.
Starting point is 01:09:45 I got a Lamborghini pool. You walk in. My dirt bike is hanging right on the entry. It's a nice pool, but the shape is just whack. That's what it should be. Did you guys see Hayden Deegan what he's building for his house? Yeah. I don't know if that was a joke or like, was he being serious?
Starting point is 01:10:00 I think he posted it. It was just like a rendering. It's on his Instagram. But, uh, I mean, that's what a guy like Hayden Deegan should be building for a house. And Ben, I think you should take note. I agree. Take note because you should have a dope-ass house like this. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 01:10:17 I mean, we all should, but you're the only one building the house. I might have to postpone it another year to go extra dope on it. Tennis court, too. We need a tennis court. You can build some sweet stuff. Obviously, if you have, like, a bunch of money, you can do anything with it. But, like, people are just getting more and more creative. Or, like, architects and designers are just getting, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:10:37 Some of these houses are just insane. The internet and AI. stresses me out like I was asking Sydney and she had a good point a normal answer was that's why you hire architects that's why I hire interior designers but I'm like when the sky is the limit like when you're learning like oh I didn't even know you could do that and then you learn about it when it's like you're halfway into your house build and you're like oh I really wish I could do that but you have concrete and metal and wood laid down like you can't just go back and like redo it yeah no people are just getting more and more creative and maybe it's just because like you have access to it on the
Starting point is 01:11:08 internet where you can see what other people have done yeah but yeah that's true yeah you used to be kind of only see like you could either see houses in person or in a magazine that was like it you need good builders though dude you get some shit builders in there oh my god you'll have a mess dude j's been hurt like even so like if you want to do some really sick shit you better find some really good builders because there's a lot of people out there that can't even do the basics. Dude. When my parents built their dream house, the one I grew up in, it was so bad.
Starting point is 01:11:42 There was so many things that went wrong. And I was like, well, they should be on the line for that once I finally got old enough to learn. And they're like, no, they filed for bankruptcy and dissolved right after they built their house. Shut off. Dude, that's what happened with my parents, too. So, really?
Starting point is 01:11:54 Yeah, we're just literally shut out of luck. And the window company went bankrupt afterwards so they can't replace them or any of that. I remember that. People are really hating that the podcast are too short because we're making the videos. So, God damn long. People are back in school. They want to listen. Who the hell's back in school?
Starting point is 01:12:10 I don't know. College is starting up next week. Like, I don't hang around really anyone who's in school. And obviously, I don't have any kids or anything like that. I forget. Like, it'll be the middle of summer. I'll be like, I think kids are in school today. Like, I'll literally drive by.
Starting point is 01:12:25 I'm like, oh, must have no school today. I'm like, oh, it's summer. I asked my neighbor that. Like, how is school today? She's like, it's July. Yeah, dude. It's just crazy because I'm so uninvolved from it. But.
Starting point is 01:12:35 But, like, I imagine kids are going to get back into school soon because I was reading comments. I always read the comments or as many as I can. So when you guys comment on this podcast or even on our YouTube videos, I more than likely will see them. Yeah, I just see comments like, oh, like so excited, like, that this podcast dropped because now I can listen to it at school. Like, you know, and I'm like, damn, kids are already firing up at school. But, you know, one thing I do want to say, this might be a hard thing to hear. but school is easier than life it sucks because like school is really boring but like just enjoy it if you're at school dude it was so easy like i look back that shit was fun dude you were hanging with your
Starting point is 01:13:15 friends you were goofing off i wasn't really doing a lot either and i don't know you just like just enjoy it man just enjoy your time in school and in the present hang with your friends i don't know with your buddies every day imagine just like you had school coming up in a week it'd be pretty exciting go get to see the friends again and you know that's a good way to look at cj i don't know if anyone out there looks at it quite like that trust me when you get older though i wouldn't want to go back to school especially college but like you look back at like high school middle school elementary school it's kind of fun yeah football games on friday like that show was fun that shit was fun everybody's firing a big party texting it out you're heading to somebody's house on a friday you did school was a blast

Actually, another thing I used to do
Starting point is 01:14:11 Is I used to sell them Because I'd be on all these dirt bike races I'd steal the cases of monster And I would sell the monsters That's a good idea Yeah Kids because like Hot commodity
Starting point is 01:14:19 It's hard to go to the gas station Low-cost business too Yeah, two three bucks Everybody wants an energy drink in high school It was like the cool thing To like have an energy drink on your desk Dude really When I was in high school
Starting point is 01:14:30 Kids weren't really drinking energy drinks We weren't allowed. My group, yeah, I remember they're pretty taboo. Like, if you showed up drinking an energy drink, it was like the same thing as fucking drinking a beer. Yeah. Like, they damn near were like, really?
Starting point is 01:14:42 You know, just like the teachers, energy drinks. I don't know. It was just strange how, like. There was one kid that came to my locker every single day, and it's hilarious because his name was Kyle, and he wore these purple, big Osiris, like, high top shoes. Holy shit. He and Evan would have been buddies.
Starting point is 01:14:59 Dude. He was just such a goopy kid, and he would come up. at like 1030 when we were switching classes because he knew I'd be at my locker and he'd come and be like, hey, can I get a monster? And he like, sometimes he wouldn't add money. And they'd just be warm? Yeah, they're sitting my locker.
Starting point is 01:15:12 There's a hot monster locker. And he'd buy one every single day. Did you get shut down? No. Well, I mean, the principal actually and then I had another thing where like I went to Vegas for a race and Glennie was getting those like
Starting point is 01:15:25 little cards with like the chicks on them. Oh my God. And I took those to school. and I actually got sent to the office for that because they found that I was handing them out to all my buddies They were hand out porn at school They're like where the hell are you getting all these cards And I just bring a big stack
Starting point is 01:15:41 And just deal them out to all the boys And just for free just trading cards Yeah just literally trading cards Has anyone ever called those numbers Like one of those numbers and like what happens? Bro like does it actually Does that girl actually show up Or do some people show up and just fucking
Starting point is 01:15:57 Inevitable cat I don't think it's all You get mugged Take your money Like, I think it's like, hey, call this number and, you know, a Lamborghini's going to pull up. But then really just a civic pulls up. Yeah, that's what I'd imagine. They're, so some context for the listener.
Starting point is 01:16:12 There's like these basically Pokemon cards, but with women explicitly showing themselves. No, it doesn't have their stats on it. It's basically a guy. And then it's got their phone number on it. And then there's guys in Vegas, like on the sidewalks, like handing these things out. Like, hey, you want this girl to. pull up to your room. But it's like 50 bucks supposedly.
Starting point is 01:16:33 I'm like, but if you, I think it's like, most people know it's not real. It's like 50 bucks just a little knock on your door and I think it's, but what does happen? I don't know. I'm worried about the girls.
Starting point is 01:16:43 Like what a dangerous job. Yeah. Like you're just some random girl and you're going to show up to some dirty guy's fucking room. A lot of bad shit could happen. Like I feel bad for the women that are in that position. Hopefully they really enjoy their job because like the world's oldest profession.
Starting point is 01:16:57 Another funny thing that was at our high school too. is we had like a designated smoking pit outside the high school. Shut up. Dude, I had, Shut up. No lie. There was a straight up smoking pit. And there was a couple kids, I was in a, I was in like the low English class because
Starting point is 01:17:14 I sucked in English. Because you only knew Canadian at the time. Yeah, exactly. There's a couple kids who were like, kind of like gnarlier dudes. And this one kid would like, we would be doing like a test or something. And he would, he was just like such a loose cannon. And you would stand up. and he'd be like, Mr. Mott,
Starting point is 01:17:33 I'm going for a smoke, and he would just stand up, and he would walk out and go to smoke a dog. And what would Mr. Mott, dude? That's wild. All right, like, you got to respect that. That's back when you couldn't just hide a vape in your sweatshirt. You know, you actually had to go outside of rip a dart. You weren't heightened shit.
Starting point is 01:17:50 Like, literally, and then, like, he would show up late, and the teachers would be like, why are you late? And he's like, oh, I was just, I was finishing my dart. And, like, they never said anything to him. He was just like... Was it legal? Was he... He wasn't even of legal age.
Starting point is 01:18:05 That blows my mind. It was illegal to buy them, but it wasn't illegal to smoke them. It's like having window tent. Yeah. Except for the opposite. What age can you use tobacco in... 18. Oh, really?
Starting point is 01:18:16 In Canada. So they would just... Some of the kids, I mean, like, every high school had, like, smoking pits, and you, like, knew that. It's a smoking pit. It was just like... Describe this to me. It was, so, like, there's the parking lot, and then the school's right here, and there's,
Starting point is 01:18:28 like, a batch of trees. So it was a dead. designated spot established by the school for smoking? Or was it just a spot? That's where the kids were all the smokers went. Oh, okay. The principal and the school cop would go cruise by it at like lunchtime because they knew like the kids were out there smoking.
Starting point is 01:18:45 And what? Tell them to stop? Want to make their presence on? No, they wouldn't tell them to stop, but they would just be like making sure they weren't like smoking weed or like doing drugs. Just cigarette. It's like obviously like that's where you would go to deal the drugs. Like you'd meet in the smoking pit.
Starting point is 01:18:57 Makes sense. Or like if there was ever a fight, they'd be like meet in the smoking pit and you'd go to the smoking pit and that's how big was this small bit? Probably like as big as just like this room. Oh wow. It's pretty big pit. And is it actually in the ground? No, it was not an actual pit. It was like we're like the, where there was like a drain
Starting point is 01:19:12 or something like a bad little couple trees. So you guys are just standing in water? No, there was just a water. It was just a little low, a little wetland. Just a little low, a little low It had a drain. There's no water. There's no water. So you guys would just stand around a drain. I didn't go into the smoking pit. You sure know a lot about
Starting point is 01:19:28 it, buddy. I bet you were dealing Monsters to him. He's taking a troll by the smoking pit. You're like, I'm not doing the deal out there. Come to my locker, bro. What about like cafeterias? Did you guys have cafeterias in your school? Yeah, dude.
Starting point is 01:19:43 Every school is a cafeteria. Wait, what? I love you, dude. I love school lunch. You didn't have a cafeteria? No, no. So we had, we had this restaurant called Cocoa Brooks. Oh, that's cool.
Starting point is 01:19:53 And it was a pizza place. It was in a tap. Our school wasn't big enough to have that. In your school? In the school. Big schools. So all you had your choice was just a pizza? No, no, no, no.
Starting point is 01:20:00 So they had, like, calzone, pizzas, they had banana bread, coffees, but you had a standard hot lunch with lunch ladies, too, though, right? No, no, no, no. We only had that. It was just, like, a little, interesting. So you didn't have, like, a lunch lady's, no thing. There was no buffet line where you just ran through. No, it was called Cocoa Brooks, and you'd go up there.
Starting point is 01:20:18 You'd order a pineapple barbecue pizza or you, or you, no, like, not just pizza. They had, like, salads and, like, either that or you would pack your own lunch. Yeah, or you packed your own lunch. So you never had, like, chicken. Like, chicken. Today's chicken nuggets. And you didn't have a plate with a little milk.
Starting point is 01:20:35 Dude, you know, I'd like to go back to my high school and see if the school lunch still holds up today. Oh, yeah. Who is that? Who is it? Hello? What the fuck? What the fuck?
Starting point is 01:20:50 It's our buddy from Winnipeg. Oh! What up! What? What the break. Is this a bad time show? No. You're just fine.
Starting point is 01:21:00 You drop in. Holy hell, that's hilarious. I was going. Did they not tell you we're coming? No. No, I knew. I knew. No, Spenny told me.
Starting point is 01:21:08 Spenny knows. I didn't know on the hour when you'd be here. I could feel it. I could feel it. This is what we're saying earlier in the podcast. People just drop in. I love it. It's just another day.
Starting point is 01:21:18 Hey, I got the same hat. It's just another day. What up, dude? How's it going, brother? How are you doing? Yeah, come on. All right, we got the whole crew coming through. Let's go, love it.
Starting point is 01:21:29 Let's go. How's it going? Come on through, what's on, man? Come on through. Come on through. Hey, thanks for coming. Hey, how's it going? Take a seat.
Starting point is 01:21:38 Yeah, take a seat. Unbelievable. But yeah, anyway, so it was sweet because we could eat in class, too. I don't know if you guys could eat in class. No. But, like, we could literally, we could be in class and 30 minutes in, you're hungry and say, hey, could I run to, like, the bathroom or whatever, you run to the bathroom, hit Cocoa Brooks. There's a couple boys hanging out in the, like, the little, like, the, like, the little, capterio or, yeah.
Starting point is 01:21:59 Open all day. Grab a slice of banana bread, head back up to the classroom. What the fuck? It was actually so sick. Dude, Canada high school was lit. I was on it. You're selling me on it. You didn't graduate, Spenny.
Starting point is 01:22:12 You could go back. No, I graduated. Oh, you didn't? I thought you said you didn't. No, my brother didn't. But then he went back and got it after. I was going to say, you still have a chance to go back and you like it that much. I even had a sick wood shop teacher that we would be in woodshop, and we'd be like, hey,
Starting point is 01:22:25 is it cool if we run to McDonald's? Yeah. And he's like, yeah, just get me a double cheese. What the fuck? We would leave class for 30 minutes all the time And go to McDonald's and grab my cheeseburger He didn't care Paying them off
Starting point is 01:22:38 It's always the like to shop Well I had one shop teacher That was the biggest cheese dick I've ever met But the other shop teacher was the same as that He let us do whatever we wanted It was great Build whatever we wanted Yeah I want someone's shop class
Starting point is 01:22:51 To build another wooden dirt bike Yeah yeah let's see if anyone Can build a better wooden dirt bike than us I mean ride it at your own risk but I don't think anyone's building a better wooden dirt bike than maybe maybe an Amish colony that's it but like straight up we got to go down there and maybe start seeing if they can do some projects for us dude honestly challenge them the Amish those guys know how to work because they'd be they want to make money they want to make a living I saw a pretty funny video the other day
Starting point is 01:23:20 it was going into an alish colony and just telling them wild things that have happened like yeah did you guys hear and then and then showing him an AI video. Did you hear that, uh, yeah, like a, a pack of like rabbit dogs like took over like the next town over and then just show them a video of like
Starting point is 01:23:42 the dogs like going into bars and like kicking people out like just like bizarre things. That was a bad example. Remember our Amish buddy that gave us this hat? Peter Yodel. He was a he was at WIFF. That thing is pretty old. Well, he left his Amish colony.
Starting point is 01:23:56 Now he's got a phone. He's fucking head Wii Fest. He FaceTime me when he was at Gavin Adcock. And I was like, it was so random. And I'm like, what are you doing? He's all piled up. And then I talked to him the next day. And he goes, oh, fuck.
Starting point is 01:24:09 I don't even remember seeing at Gavin Adcock. And I'm like, yeah, you called me last night. Right here. Hold on, let's hear this. That crazy news about, so there's cats in the Olympics now. Cats. Cats. Well, you can get these guys with anything now.
Starting point is 01:24:24 Cats in the Olympic. So look, there's cats. The kids is like this lit. Kind of insane. How do you train a cat, how do that? This one's from America. This one's from America. There's a real sport now.
Starting point is 01:24:48 People are training their cats. Go jump on me. I mean, I think the guys not believe that. Yeah, he's not. But he's got to be like, how the hell do you make that? That has to go. Pretty serious Amish spec, though. Dude, you guys remember when Nelk made that video with, like, they take the Amish guy to Miami?
Starting point is 01:25:06 Oh, yeah. Yeah. They get a bunch of backlash for that? They did. Yeah, they did. And I think the Amish guy left in the middle of the night. Like, he felt very uncomfortable. He was breaking his rules, you know?
Starting point is 01:25:17 Yeah. Which I think that's not cool to, like, take someone out of their religion or whatever and ruin it, you know? I wonder if we could drop in, though, and, like, be like, yo. For example, can you guys build us a woodener? I bet you they would for sure. Because, I mean, you can hire them to build you like late cabins and stuff. I think like worst case in here. They'll do these little homes.
Starting point is 01:25:38 Worst case, they would just say like we don't want to be on camera. Yeah, no, it just literally shows us pulling up, giving them the assignment. Yeah, and then coming back and be like, all right, let's see what they built. It doesn't have to just be wood, dude. They can build like anything. They're super, like if you take like an old car, Grandpa Ron tells me all the time. He's like, yeah, take an old car, bring it to the omens. they'll have that thing looking brand new fully restored in like three weeks how did they do it
Starting point is 01:26:03 they do it they have a guy for everything they will build it themselves they're super good and they they take a lot of pride in their work and they charge you an honest wage there we go that's where you should have taken the hoon of what i think we do got to go venture out let's do it let's do it that we can do that be good video i think it'd be great i like that idea yeah also yeah some good builds. They probably got good eggs, too. They got good wine, great meat, chicken, bring it back for everything. Good cows. Grandpa Ron said he got hammered off their wine.
Starting point is 01:26:32 Grandpa Ron used to hang with the Amish all the time. Really? Yeah. Yeah, you do like business with them because like basically he was doing some kind of job where say they're transporting groceries from wherever to this grocery store and let's just say they didn't make it in a certain time span. Then they would show up with like this truck full of let's just say peanut butter. and no, we're not buying it anymore. The grocery store says we're not buying it anymore. So then they would sell it to the Amish then.
Starting point is 01:27:01 It would be like his job. He would like go and like sell it to the Amish for like a quarter of the price or half the price. They would buy all of it. Interesting. Yeah. And they'd always pay in cash. They'd always pay in cash. They'd always pay in cash.
Starting point is 01:27:12 He said they got big money. I'd be like, wait, you just pulled out an Amex? What? Yeah, I got to get through rewards. The travel rewards. All right. Well, perfect, I love that idea, though. Maybe drop a comment what we should have.
Starting point is 01:27:24 Have the Amish build us. That'd be actually a really good title. We had the Amish Restore the Hunicorn. Not just kidding. We got Robbie Leighton built the unicorn, but let's just say something else. Another vehicle we have destroyed. I have a Chevy. We got them fix the wooden dirt by.
Starting point is 01:27:38 That'd be easy for them. They'd have that done before lunch. I mean, like, I'd like a list of things because they'll probably knock it all out in like a day. Have them build us a couple ramps. Imagine we drop off all of our broken stuff there. None of it is like traditional. And they're like, who are these guys? And what are they doing?
Starting point is 01:27:54 Yeah, you can just fix it. Drop off the boat card. Ask them if they can make it float. Probably could. Okay, subscribe if you haven't. We post podcast every Tuesday, and we'll see you guys in the next one. Take it easy.
Starting point is 01:28:06 Peace.
