Three, two, one. Welcome back to another episode of Men at Work. I'm Kyle Pegg. And as always, joined by Matt Peebles. Matt, where are we at today? Dude, we are at the Portal of Philadelphia. Brand new portal. It opened, what, like legit yesterday?

Two days ago. Two days ago. The Portal, dude. We're connecting with our Dublin brothers, our Lithuanian brothers. And our Polish brothers. And our, is it the Poles? Yeah, dude. They went real Eastern Bloc heavy.

The Poles, dude. They probably like have the inverse of the portal instead of having a screen and a big circle around it it's just a big screen of a circle and like the inside just metal yeah we were gonna uh set up in front of the portal but we were kindly asked to leave so we're setting up at the corner and the portal is technically behind us i hope we get some b-roll i think veto's gonna get it and stuff yeah but uh it's a p-roll yeah dude it's a portal into another country. It's still standing after 48 hours.

I don't think anyone thought that was going to happen. And I've been very surprised by how great the townspeople of Philadelphia have treated the portal. They seem pretty nice, although I did see the first day, I think somebody said there was a crack in it. That happened on transportation. I don't want to hear that blasphemy that we did it. It happened on transportation? Oh, somebody dropped it? No, we stole it from New York.

Yeah, it was a New York portal, and then they were acting all nefarious, and they said, nope, can't do it in New York anymore. You got to bring it down to Philadelphia. Some guy came up with the greatest excuse where he cracked it, and he was terrified of his boss. He knew it was going to fill in. He was like, it's like the Liberty Bell. That's why I did it. That's great marketing by that guy.

There you go. I like that guy. I got something quick on his feet. How are you doing today? I'm sick, dude. I'm sick, and it hurts hurts and i feel bad because i'm not good at being sick i'm a baby when i get sorry baby i'm a baby when i'm sick too i think it's i think it's man thing it is it's weird that like you want to be a man you know in front of your girlfriend until you get sick and you're just like take care of me please no i'm like that even when i'm not sick so that's that's kind of a battle you're fighting but But, dude, I work in an office with people around my age, like young adults.

Yo, if you have a kid that gets sick with diseases that I haven't felt since, like, 1998, maternity leave should be 18 years long. Let the kid build an immunity, get vaccines, whatever they got to do. I'm so sick of having a cold all the time. It's literally every day I go in, everybody's, like sniffing it's like a civil war hospital we're just like limping around a lot of hand foot mouth it's not it feels like they all work at like chernobyl post blast like they're walking around they're frail their hair's falling out one guy's ears displaced yeah dude the fuck having it's like oh yeah kid's got a hand foot and mouth again yeah what, oh, yeah, kid's got a hand, foot, and mouth again.

Yeah, what does that even mean? Every kid has a hand, a foot, and a mouth. I don't even know what that disease means. Yeah, I don't either. I mean, I work from home. I got it made, dude. It's one of those. I remember growing up, everybody had hand, foot, and mouth, which I was like, I don't even know what that means.

And then they're like, oh, it's like other kids have athlete's foot. And I'm like, don't know what that means either. I had a bad case of athlete's foot. What does it mean? Itchy foot. Itchy foot. I got that forever. It's just like you just don't wash your toes it mean itchy foot itchy if i got it's just like you just don't wash your toes enough i can see well it's kind of tough for you as a tall guy do you wash your legs no man you don't go below the shin and sometimes you don't even get to the

shin i get to the knees a lot do you just get like you get too tired going all the way down yeah exactly okay i got a bad back i'm right there with you brother i got a bad back i'll tell you what i got the worst back of all time. Speaking of kids, when I was in Disney World, not weird, nothing wrong with it. It's totally okay for adults to go there. My back gave out the entire time when I was in Epcot, land of the future. So you haven't washed your ankles in decades. Oh, my God.

I don't even know what those things look like, dude. I'm like a chubby guy who can't see his penis. I don't even know what the back of my foot looks like. So what day are you sick on right now? This is a day two and that's the worst day one. I'm kind of like, I should be fine. I have a couple of drinks. It's coming on. It might not come on. It might not. It might come on. And then day two, you're like, Oh, it's here. Yeah. Day two. I will. Today I woke up this morning with like bloodshot eyes and I was coughing and everybody in my office was like, speaking to the hangover episode, everybody just looks at you when you're like oh it's here yeah day two i will today i woke up this morning with like bloodshot eyes and i was coughing and everybody in my office was like speaking to the hangover episode everybody just looks at you when you're my age and they're like oh this guy tied one on last night he's a scumbag and i'm like no your kids are killing me damn yeah dude so i look let the kids do their

thing but you're really just creating a bioweapon that people my age cannot handle anymore do you think the sickness is getting more powerful i work too oh thank you yeah no it's universal it's it's not okay you know it's not what it sounds like at all now everybody making a complete virtue signaling pledge yeah actually ladies have jobs it's like yeah i know that's why we can't get anything fucking done. Yeah. Listen, if we wanted to have a three-hour Joe Rogan podcast, we'd invite more ladies on. Yeah, true. Yap fest. No, I'm kidding. Love ladies.

No, there's nothing like me not wanting you to be on my podcast. You're like, ladies can be on podcasts, too. It's like, no, we're starting off on the wrong foot. Yeah, whatever happened to presenting yourself as an endearing person to get people to want to interact? Now, it's just kind of like like why do you deserve to know me it's like i'll put a gun in my mouth and kill myself in front of you right now does that answer your question do you think sicknesses are getting worse do you like do you think like as when you first started your job like do you get uh do you get more of the common cold more or less i think it is like uh that 2020 disease i think like that was a year

of like getting the sniffles was scary so it's almost like you have like a almost like a PTSD of like anytime you get sick, a little bit of your brain is like everyone. I was really scared of getting sick like three or four years ago. So every time I get like a head cold now, I am a little bit like, oh, no. Do you have allergies? Yeah, a little bit. Yeah. So I never got allergies. Yeah. Until the summer after 2021, where my allergies were really, really bad. And people were starting to say that it's because we wore masks all the time. But I was just wondering if you felt like, did you feel like you got sicker? Did you feel you got allergies? Or did you feel like your immune system was worse after we did an entire year of masking? Or two years?

A year and a half? Yeah, I think it might have been. Again, it just might have been like an anti-placebo where I'm... Every time you got sick after the virus, you're like, this could be...

It's the first time you ever got sick and you're like, what if this is the first version of this sickness ever? I never had that thought. Anytime I got the flu or pneumonia...

I never think about that stuff. No? No. What do you think about? Hmm. It's pretty sweet. The Eagles? Peased.

Let's go. Go Birds? Perhaps. The Portal? Yeah, true. Yeah, I really don't think about much more than, like, this job, my job, and sports. Yeah, true. Which kind of just intertwine with each other.

Yeah. God, I'm boring. Shut up. Let's redo that. Let's redo that. What do I think about? Yeah. Tits? Boobies? Yeah. true. Which kind of just intertwine with each other. Yeah. God, I'm boring. Shut off, dude. Let's redo that. Let's redo that. What do I think about? Yeah. Tits.

Boobies. Yeah, yeah. We fucking think about me old knocker slapping around. Before we get into this episode, I want to talk about our sponsor, Thrive Flower.

Yeah. It was never a forget. It was more of like, we didn't even know how to do the podcast by ourselves. The last thing we need is somebody else. Like, him and I are still navigating this thing. See you, shorty. Stolen valor.

Anyway. So what's your deal? I'm terrible at intros and stuff. I like people to talk. So I introduced you as one of the funniest guys in Philadelphia. Successful content creator from prison from prison prison well it was better than that it's about that but time finds it's a little tarantino on the timeline there but i mean honestly it's a pretty simple story um i had

you know a pretty shitty childhood. My mom is great. My dad sucks. Never really had too much growing up. And just typical Northeast Philly, like lived in it. Jesus. What's up? We're doing something right now. What's up?

No, no, we got a whole thing we got to do. I didn't let go of the mic. Yeah, we got it. We got, we're live. Yeah. We're live right now. Sorry. That's cool. Yeah. There you go. All right. You're good. Have a good night. That's what you get. You do get, this is, this is what you get for coming to Philadelphia. Yeah, no, I know. I'm, this is not, I've dealt with this my whole life. I know this is, you know what I mean? There's, there's a difference you like i feel like you know like immediately when you're in danger you know what i mean i didn't feel that way i just felt like it was a bunch of kids trying to interrupt a podcast i feel like that at all times i feel like i'm in

danger non-stop i don't know that's just my brain so like if i let my brain decide if i'm in danger i'll never leave my bedroom you've probably been in yeah you've been oh yeah we are dangerous dangerous not at all yeah i mean but like go birds um yeah so like i you know i had a pretty rough life growing up i got addicted to drugs really young i started doing opiates with my old man at like 15 um it's a different kind of father son bonding than i had yeah yeah it was a uh it was a real uh tlc movie in my house sure and uh you know i spent my like the first probably 15 years of my like young adult life and adult life just in and out of rehabs jails stuff like that um then i got a you know a pretty decent case i i i was with this dude and i'm probably gonna blow my whole career talking about this. Would you, no, would you go for it?

Would you go to? Yeah. So like, I'm giving context. So I was like, I was like doing meth in a hotel for like nine weeks with this dude in, in Bucks County. And like, we were convinced the cops were after us. And, um, so he was like, we need to get rid of everything we got. And for like some reason, this dude had a machine gun.

And what's it called? He was like, I'm going to sell it. I was like, okay. I was like, and I was just like, I was like 130 pounds soaking wet. I looked like I live in a house with a gas leak. And so the dude's like, if you come with me, I'll, you know, break you off or whatever. I'm like, cool, no problem. How much did a Salt Ravel go for in Philadelphia at that time?

I think it was like $300. That's not bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was like $300. It was like literally this old, broken, like Vietnam-era SK. Just one quick question about that six-week period. What's that like? Nine weeks.

Nine weeks. Nine weeks in a hotel. Wait, did you know? Well, I guess you never really knew that like it was over. Yeah. Yeah. No, I just that. So like, yeah, it just got snatched away.

Like, you know what I mean? Like, so it was like kind of like this thing like I planned on doing, you know, for a while. And like, just because I was in the thick of it at that point, like no phone. You know what I mean? And this is in like probably 20, 20, 15. So like, this is not like this pretty recent history. You know what I mean? And this is in like probably 20, 2015. So like, this is not like, this is pretty recent history. You know what I mean? And, you know, I had like no phone. I was just like mooching off this dude who sold drugs and living in a hotel with him and like his girl. And like, there was all these hookers and they would just like, I don't know, you know, what's crazy is when i got my life together i was in the a.a with a bunch of those hookers and now they're decent moms oh nice yeah no kidding yeah full server 360 yeah philly 360 is what we like to call that so um the dude the duty ended up that he set up to sell sell the gun with he uh he was an informant and but he was running the

block in north philly somewhere like i don't even remember the block specifically, but yeah. So he, the guy was an informant and he was running the block in North Philly. And the block was planned to get raided anyway. And the dude was like, yeah, bring me the gun. I'll buy it. And then like, so we pulled up on the street and we pulled up on Westmoreland. And when we parked, it got out, we seen the dude walking up and it was like this, like Chubbier Puerto Rican guy. And as soon as I seen the dude walking up and it was like this uh like

chubby or puerto rican guy and as soon as i seen the haircut i was like oh we're going to fucking jail yeah i was like i know what this is about i was already on probation so so i was like super screwed but i had 15 xanax in my pocket yeah so like you you got two options here you can either eat the gun or eat the drugs or you're doing 10 years in prison yeah so like can't eat the gun so i ate all 15 of the xanax i woke up three days later and the reason they were raiding all the blocks was because the pope was coming to philly that sunday it was when so like when you see if you look up if you find the pope comes to philly philly inquire my arrest report is in that same paper no shit dude you gotta frame that dude that paper that paper is hanging up. I've never told this story live ever.

I've never once. Thank you for doing this. We appreciate it. I saved it for men at work. Oh my God. God, I can't believe we tried to keep you off this. Dude, the fact that your arrest profile is probably hung on so many Italian women

in South Philadelphia's homes is insane. Yeah, that's crazy. I'm wallpaper in a kitchen on pass young wow dude that's crazy you got your newspaper next to like a shitty yeah yeah i'm framed in like one of those shitty ugly wood frames you know like the thin one yeah wow now that's fun i want to go back to the haircut how'd you know what do you mean how'd you know the puerto rican's haircut you guys are fucked oh just like he just too clean'd you know the Puerto Rican's haircut? You guys are fucked. Oh, just like, he just too clean cut. You know what I mean?

Hopped out of a Ford, like a 06 Ford Taurus. I was like, oh yeah, we're going to jail. Was he a cop or you said he was an informant. So he got fucked. No, no, the dude he sent, I didn't, I never knew the guy that was officially set up. But the guy who got out was a cop right away. Okay. So like they weren't even, and the dude that i was with just

let the deal go down anyway he still handed it to him that's all my children jesus christ still handed it to him so as i'm walking around the other side of the truck they're already swarming swarming the block yeah and so there was like probably 20 cop cars they shut the whole street down and so i'm eating the xanax and um are you doing all at once yeah just doing them yeah just straight just straight forget me not dust five dollar felonies just yeah 15 of them right at once and i woke up you know with a hundred and some thousand dollar bail three days later in cfcf on quarantine so you were zanned out from all that shit and you woke up with a broken nose and a broken orbital bone because when i was eating it the last thing one of the last things i guys i was gonna really

consciously remember is the cop running up towards me he was coming from the alleyway across onto westmoreland and he saw what i was doing he saw me shoving the shit my mouth and he like threw me down and tell me to get on my knees so i like dropped to my knees and he kicked me oh and i hit my head like off the hitch of the truck yeah and i broke my nose and my orbital bone my mugshot my face is all jacked up it's like a joellen b dude holy shit yeah i needed the mask i mean that's what i needed not really but yeah so then i went to jail and how long did you get um i ended up doing a little under a year because so i beat them yeah so what happened was the dude like thought like as if we weren't both guilty like so he tried like to flip and like kind of he was just

like he was like that wasn't mine yeah so like he like dry snitched on me essentially he was like it wasn't mine and the cops were like listen it was it like it came out of the back seat of a truck registered in your name right like he's beat for being on probation and being in a car with it anyway. So like all I got, I got possession of the instrument of a crime, carrying a firearm in the streets of Philadelphia with. Yeah. Carrying a firearm in the streets of Philadelphia without a permit. And because of it, like at first they gave me violations of the Uniforms Firearms Act, uh, yeah. Carrying a firearm in the streets of Philadelphia without a permit. And cause if it, uh, like at first they gave me violations of the uniforms firearms act, whatever that means. Like when they put you in there, you get a bracelet that says that on it, it says VUFA on it. And like, it took me like a week to figure out what that meant.

And, uh, yeah. And then I was in there and then I was in, I spent my, uh, like 11 months at a, uh, house of corrections, the jail that's closed now the woman's like shawshank redemption yeah i can't get over just like so when you come to and you're in i guess a jail cell like i think about times i wake up after a blackout and i'm like what the fuck happened what is like your immediate thought when you come to you know being in philly high bail i was like what the fuck did i do fucking white privilege check bounce today. I fucked up bad. You got to use it though.

Yeah. Yeah, you got to use it. Don't fucking put in me saying yeah. I work with national brands. But yeah, so I was like, I ended up, so I had no paperwork and nothing. And hell, CFCF is, it's locked down all the time so because there's only like limited blocks of the general population there so like when shit happens they lock the block down shit happens all the time it's gladiator school motherfuckers are playing razor tag over there so like that's like what there's two like real bad jails on state road

uh cfcf and pick is is that the one of them was where Meek was? Yeah, well, Meek was probably in all of them at one point, I assume. Yeah. But the one right by the Union Stadium, I know that's the one that Meek was in. That's RCF, I believe. So that was a women's jail when I was there. So that's not a women's jail anymore from what I heard. But I've had my life together for a long time now.

So I'm kind of out of touch with the locations and latitudes and longitudes. In a good way. It's the best thing to forget about. Yeah, no, it's sick. So, you do your year. Yeah. And how long did it take you to start doing content? Well, I did a year in Philly, actually.

And then I had a violation in Bucks County. And then I had to go up there for six months. And then I had my violation there there for six months. And then I had my violation there was for an old drug charge. And, um, so they let me out on like, uh, drug and alcohol conditions. So like I would have had to do, they wanted to give me more time than I got for the actual crime for the probation violation. They like my initial, my initial offer in Philly was they offered me seven to 21 years. And because there was a hundred in a canister sitting in the bed of the truck, but the gun failed the ballistics test. So it slowed the whole process up and we ended up cutting the deal.

So the fact that the gun didn't shoot. Yeah, we never fired it. Oh, wow. Yeah, no bullet discharge, no firearm. Can you have an assault? So it's an assault rifle? Right, no. If it doesn't shoot bullets with no pulling back the trigger repetitively, no machine gun.

So the fact that you had the 100 bullets in there, you got off with a lighter sentence than you would have. No, not because of the 100 bullets, because the gun didn't fire. Like, in a couple days? So they waited, really like i like the you know this takes time like if you took the gun and you shot it at something it would not shoot it no it's broken okay that's what i mean yeah it was broken it's i don't know like a whole lot about that stuff yeah it's just like i know like when we got the ballistics report back because you can get anything like that in your discovery like it said it failed the ballistics so it's kind of nice to

do meth with a scam artist who just tried to scam somebody out of $300 for a gun. And then it kind of, in a sick way. Yeah, besides the horrors of being in the Philadelphia prison system. Besides that part, but it could have been $721. And the guy was still trying to make the sale while this is all happening. I know you mentioned that, that he's still trying to like. Always be closing that. Always be closing.

Yeah, that guy. Gun Gary. He's probably selling cars somewhere right now. The Wolf of Broad Street, dude, yeah. Dude. Okay, so guy. Gun Gary, gun Ross. He's probably selling cars somewhere. The Wolf of Broad Street, dude, yeah. Dude. Okay, so you're in prison and everything. You did your stint. You cleaned yourself up and everything.

When does the- No, I didn't clean myself up. Not for like three more years. I got out and got worse. I just didn't go to jail as much. I would just keep going to rehab constantly. I was in rehab 24 times before I got sober. Is it voluntary rehab or do you kind of get forced in there by-

It would depend on the circumstances like i was on probation so like a lot of times like to avoid jail you just you know you call your po and be like yo i'm not coming i'm gonna piss off but i'm gonna check myself in a detox yeah a couple times they were like now we're coming to get you anyway like stay put right and like but if you check yourself in the facility they can't execute a warrant on you because of HIPAA. Oh, I have heard that. That's like normal in the workplace, too. Bucks County, though, violated my rights and walked right into Today Incorporated and pulled me out of there.

Did you get money? What? No. Hell no. There was no body cams back then. Not at that point. Another reason to shout out Delco. Yeah, that's Bucks County.

I'm not from Delco. I don't want to disrespect them. I like that. Claim it. Yeah. When did you start content? 14 months ago 15 months ago Oh fuck

What were you doing before? Dude I have face tattoos And a long fucking record I didn't have a lot of options in life You know what I mean? And being an apartment maintenance guy Got fucking old really quick

Yeah that's fair Yeah so like I had like a bunch of just bullshit jobs Like my dad My real dad owned a construction company but he was just a drug addict so like like i would work for like a week and he would like give me like two per 30s and and be like your beat and maybe your payment yeah your beat no that's it i went again yeah checkers chest yeah yeah he's like what are you gonna? Not show up and not get these two pills next Friday? Sure. Nine to five. You know what I mean? Do what you love.

You never work a day in your life, dude. Yeah, of course. Right. Shout out to CNC Construction. That's got to be the slowest. That's a union construction thing. They're all on perks fucking taking six years to build a bridge. Actually, my dad's super anti-union.

So, like, my dad, they used-union it's so like my dad they used to like blow wraps up they probably drop test he's like he's like yeah all the union guys don't take two perks already for big yeah my dad was taking a lot more than two some people worry about benefits my dad's doctor my dad's doctor got life in prison for pill milling dr jeffrey c beto look it up i swear to god he's in prison. He was pushing big pharma. You know what I mean? I was a direct victim of that. True.

You know what I mean? And trust me, I put my nose to the bathroom counter. Don't get fucked up. You know what I mean? But I also didn't have the brain capacity to know whether that was the right thing to do for me or not. You know what I mean? And I laugh about it now, but behind it,

I can put a humor in front of it because I have to. You know what I mean? What else am I going to do? Like, like spend my life being miserable, not be there for my kids and end up the same guy. Like, fuck that. You know what I mean? Yeah. So what were you, so 14, 15 months ago, what were you, what were you doing?

So I was working in an apartment complex right down the street from my house because, so like during the pandemic, I got like really bad agoraphobia and i didn't want to leave the house like i was afraid of crowd i got really afraid of social anxiety and then i i said to you before like i suffer really bad from social anxiety i don't think so but like as soon as there's just this thing about like turning the camera on it just goes away it's just like time to go to work and i'm able i think that's glory houndedness yeah i think that's yeah i'm gonna be sitting on a bar stool somewhere talking about this probably like six months you might be literally in barstool talking about this yeah true they're

not interested in me so you're such a success story though because like i i thought you've been doing this for like years and stuff but so you discovered tiktok and you just yeah so um like i had like this gaming account like at one point before that, like where I put like a couple of videos on it and I just like whenever I do anything like so like I'm acoustic, right? My guitar is not electric. You know what I'm saying? And like I get obsessed, right?

Hyper obsessed about anything. When I was making those like little gaming Call of duty clips yeah i like learned how people edit like viral content like just a little bit enough to have me like like parallelly interested like parallel interested in you know keep kind of like dipping my toe into it and then i may i like made ended up losing that account for some reason i like used like a copyrighted song and i banned the account yeah and um i made i was like you know what like i like always wanted to stream i kept buying like streaming equipment and and just being too nervous to do it and i was like saw people doing tiktok and like i just saw some of the people doing tiktok and i was like i can definitely do that yeah like because like you're in complete

control of everything going on you're editing it you know what i mean and like i talked to my boy and it's like this never would have happened without my wife and my boy because like i hated my job that much it was like severely affecting my mental health to the point i was going to check myself into a mental health facility right like with you know eight or seven years of having my life together you know what i mean like i felt like I was falling apart at my job. Like my boss sucked. Like he, I, I do super toxic environment and it just didn't feel worth like the money I was making. Like, you know what I mean? Like if you look like me, like the ceiling is not high financially. You know what I mean? Like, how old were you when you got the face tats? These were early on or later? No, no. Like I was like 25 when I got the first one. I was, I had my life together. How old are you now? 31. Okay.

Yeah. So I was like. Wait, you had your life together when you got the face tattoos? Yeah, yeah. I got my first teeth. So under, I have a knife. I have a knife tattooed right here. Under that, I had a smaller knife that was my first one.

I got it on my one year sober when I was doing like the AA thing. Right. first one i got it on uh my one year sober when i was doing like the aa thing right and um like because i was just like so committed to not having to do what everyone else was doing because i just hate the idea of working a fucking regular job like why work a regular job when i could like sit on the corner in philly and film a podcast yeah and you know where you can like dress up like you're in the military and go on podcasts in Philly, stuff like that. But, yeah, so, like, what, like, really sparked it was I started, like, kind of, like, lightly making videos on TikTok. I made a couple, like, edits and memes and stuff. And, like, I started getting, like, you know, 4,000, 5,000 views.

And I was like, hmm, maybe I'm on to something. I talked to my boy and he was, and my boy Jay was like, you know, like, you're funny. Like, I think you're funny. Our friends think you're funny like i think you should be the person like talking like give that a shot and i did that and i liked it i liked the idea of it like the videos didn't do well at first like the first couple didn't do well and then i was like you know i'm seeing people like you know i started seeing how people made money on tiktok like just from making tiktoks and stuff yeah and i was like you know people make money on this like i really think if there's like

a way i might be able to figure it out and he and he was like yeah dude i think you can he was like what you should do is you should post every day for 30 days and i'll hold you accountable and like i told my wife about it and she just was like like i had so many fucking crazy ideas professional day trader professional gambler you know i don't even got legally allowed inside the stock market you did set like a pretty good baseline where it's like most people would be like i'm gonna be embarrassed making tiktoks but your wife's like he's not doing fucking yeah yeah yeah i see see i reverse that culture i said i got all the disappointment out of the way in the first few years of the relationship

so like whatever i did i'm like a fucking astronaut i'm buzz aldrin in my house so i was i was like all right i'll do it and i just started making like real like original content and like sports related it was eagle season and i you know i'm diehard birds fan and i uh what's it called on the 11th day i convinced my wife to do a tiktok with me and that was my first viral video, the Joe Burrow video. And it just like felt like everything clicked. It felt like my best friend and my wife were like the keys to my success. And like the Eagles and, you know, football. And like, I'm like, whoa, when I take a second, slow down.

Because it was the fastest TikTok I made in those 11 days. It took me 15 seconds to make it and um but the thing is I like told her I did tell her what to say yeah so like I wrote the skit essentially but it was like maybe this will be a good idea and then like I literally just like walked out of my bedroom door and then hit record and then walked up in the steps in my room that's where you see the video start and uh after that i had that first million and i was hooked and it took like i was still working a job at that point and um it took like i think like seven months yeah it took like seven months to get to that like 10 000 file or whatever they need you to have be monetized. But that whole time I was posting twice a day, every day. And I saw what really drove my content to be able to like,

where I understood like the backend of making content was I saw this Colin and Samir interview. They're like tech guys, I think. And they interviewed Mr. Beast, but it wasn't like a Mr. Beast, like typical, like asking about his life. They were just talking about like the analytics of content. And I was like, what if nobody's applying these principles to TikTok on how he makes a video? Because like, if this dude's getting a billion views a month, like to think that he doesn't know what he's doing, it's crazy. So I like really, I watched that interview probably like a hundred times in two weeks and just, and really like on how important retention is and how

important the first five seconds of a video is. Like if you can make a first five, good five seconds of a video, then you can make a good 61 seconds and you can get paid to make those five seconds. You know what I mean? And so I just focus on like, if I make a video, say it takes me an hour and a half to make a one minute video, right? Um, It takes me 45 minutes to do the first 10 seconds. And so it's, I think that much. I do like, I go as far as like, when I'm finally done of what I think is the final draft, I put the phone next to me and don't look at it.

And I hit play and I listen until I'm mentally checked out. And then that's where I come back and edit too. Wow. Yeah. Because if I'm not, if I'm listening to me and I'm not interested, why the fuck is anybody else going to be interested? I feel that i'm listening to me and i'm not interested why the fuck is anybody else going to be i feel that i feel that when i edit a video and i'm like halfway through i'm kind of like i know what is good and you're feeling it or you're not and

sometimes i'm wrong sometimes i just put you out there because like i didn't get something up today or whatever it's true and and it works out so yeah i'm kind of curious like having uh your son is younger like he's probably on tiktok i would guess is he like no it's pretty sweet no no no they don't they're not on social media not yet no i'm not he no i have three boys there's six the other one will be four this week coming and then i'm my youngest who just turned one two weeks ago yeah okay yeah now they're not on tiktok like they're obviously they're aware they just like think i'm like friends with like lo, Logan Paul.

That's it. Which is cool. You know what I mean? Like, my son got to hang out with Kid Leroy because of my TikTok. You know what I mean? Yeah. Like, that was crazy. You know what I mean?

And I've done so much cool shit. And now this is your full-time job. This is it. This is all I do. Yeah, I make videos. I say dumb shit on the internet. Like, the thing is, you just got to be not afraid to send it. You got to be afraid to, like, not be afraid to put that, like, hard opinion out there or, like, that funny thing that might be a little controversial, but it's a really good

perspective of something. Like, I did a video today on Mia Khalifa and her views on the U.S. military. You know what I mean? And, like, when I sat down, you know what I mean? That shit was at, like, 10,000 views. And then when I moved back over here, it was at 30,000. You know what I mean? It's just, it doesn't matter. Like if you think you can have a good idea or like the other thing to do, like if you're growing, like I didn't, sorry, this came into turn into a seminar, but like if you're growing

trending topics and don't use TikTok to find them, TikTok is behind the curve on everything because people have to edit videos. It takes longer. It's just, it's, it's, it's like, it's really simple when you think about it. It takes so much longer to make a TikTok than to shoot a tweet out, go to Twitter, go to X or whatever. You know what I mean? It changed, you know, it identifies. I don't even know. My Twitter is just boobs nonstop, dude. The amount of OnlyFans that I get that I haven't signed up for, I'm a goddamn saint it's an algorithm dude yeah mine is all just like basketball dunks and um cartel executions yeah yeah the big two yeah the big two right yeah they're really they're desensitizing me for what's coming you gotta go you gotta you gotta move over to the following tab okay the

following tab is your bit you're your best friend now i get bored too quick i go right back before you and it's like how about a chick chick with chocolate milk on her tits? And I'm like, pretty sweet. I like that. I kind of like where your head's at. Nest quick, nest tits. How we doing? Oh, my God.

Dude, do you want to interview some people with us? Yeah. All right. You good? Yeah, I just want to finish up my drink. Yeah, take some of your drink. We'll get somebody on. Before we invite them on, are we calling Stolen Valor?

We can't do it directly because if you're wrong,'s it's a it's a game of it's a high stakes game tell the people like what we explain to the people because i don't want to fucking look there's for some people halloween came a week early uh so i'll put it that way okay all right you ready to come on man i mean we're gonna see how this goes if this if this if if If this takes a wild turn, I'm in. All right. Matt. What's up, man? How are you?

You're the man for the job. It's getting fucking chilly out here. Nah, dude. It's all in your brain. You've been through boot camp? You've been all right? Yeah, I went in the summer. You went in the summer?

Damn. Well, late spring. Yeah? Are you allowed to take the hat off? Outside, I have to wear it. Really? Yeah. Wow. So, Navy uh navy yes thank you for your service no problem appreciate it you said you just went to boot camp uh i went to boot camp built way back in 2016 actually he just told you at the boot camp where you sat down i was there this summer i thought you said eight summers ago yeah

yeah uh it was like late, late, late spring. Yeah. Yeah. Where were you? I remember Kim was in Great Lakes, Illinois, right outside Chicago. Got it. So are you stationed here or you're just living? I'm stationed in a reserve center outside Wilmington, Delaware. But I live here in Center City, Philadelphia. So you commute every day, just go back and from uh the great city to delaware yep okay it takes about 45 50 minutes i've had to take an hour and a half before the president decides to randomly show up right yeah that's been a bitch especially with this election season yeah can't wait for that to be over so they're not in the uh in the city every other day and the streets are insane it's crazy it's non-stop just like protests and so so uh you So you have a vested interest. You're in the military.

What do you think is going on with our country? Give us your perspective from inside the hole. Yeah. So I can't really speak too much on it, with all due respect. I do have some laws I have to follow, the Hatch Act and all that. Really? What laws do you have to follow? The Hatch Act. What's that?

Federal employees, especially acting in a official status yeah they have to they can't really represent or endorse anybody you can't have an opinions why you're wearing that i mean if you're outside the workspace i think you're good to kind of let it rip fair enough but i don't want to give like a bad representation of that big sense try to get the the inside scoop on what being in the military is like these days and what it looks like. What do you do for them? So I'm a logistics specialist for the Navy. I've been doing it for just under nine years now.

I've been assigned to three different bases, three different tours. So my first tour was in New Orleans, Louisiana, and then I went to Nor norfolk virginia yeah and then after my tour in norfolk i got stationed in delaware but decided to move here because i thought it was more wait i'm confused for a second you said you were in boot camp in 2016 yes but you said you've been doing this for nine years yes my math off that's right it's right around is that right yeah just just under nine years. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. I was confused. Yeah. All right. Wow.

So in 2025, it'll be nine years. In 2025, it'll be nine years. Okay. So do you work in Northeast Philly right now? I'm sorry. No, I work right outside Wilmington, Delaware. Oh, okay. My bad.

You said that. Yeah, of course. What do you do for the Navy? I'm a logistics specialist. What does that mean? So we handle the logistics side of the house. We order materials, parts, whatever people need to get the job done, whether it's medical supplies, aircraft parts, ship parts, you name it.

We order that. We inventory all that stuff. Some of us also handle forklifts. I used to operate a forklift in the past. I haven't done it since I got here. I'm more on the administrative side since I got here. More paperwork side here. You're just signing for parts right now?

Signing for parts, picking up parts, doing mail, stuff like that here. So are you a contract specialist? I've done contracts, but... So you're doing both. You're in the weeds and the paperwork, and then you're also on the floor kind of handling... Yeah. Like in my position, i have the unique opportunity to actually network with some of the civilian counterparts because i actually have to make

partnerships with uh with local restaurants for our guys and then local hotels to put them up in rooms for whenever they come to do our drills we do uh monthly drills where i am stationed at yeah and we have to make sure why restaurants i understand hotels uh we have to feed these guys whenever they do their drills basically got it no mess hall we don't have one so that's like the next best option so you so i'm kind of curious your tours have all been domestic yeah i've never heard i've i mean i've i guess i just don't know enough about it but i would think tours are like outside of the country for the most part what does a tour domestically look like so that depends on what kind of command you're attached to what your duty is um your tours can

be stateside but you can still go overseas and i did that with my tour and second tour in virginia um so i'll give you like a timeline right so 2016 2019 was my tour in louisiana um that was mostly stateside we didn't deploy anywhere we just worked there the whole time most of my stuff was really off time i was just like doing stuff in the city did some stuff with the parades for mardi gras um like for fun or like that was part of your job technically it was for fun but it was also counted as a volunteer opportunity believe it or not Those things had to be hot as shit in the New Orleans sun Yes, granted in the summer you can roll your sleeves up

But it doesn't really help all that much. I was just down there in September That's a heat that I've never experienced in my life. That place stunk. Yeah, you got a tour down there. What, New Orleans? New Orleans stunk. What did you go there for Eagles game? Oh, right? Yeah, okay Yeah, I got to see quite a few stadium Superdome Honestly compare the the link is kind of a dump How I think they're re-upped it. I think they revamped it. They revamped it but looking at it now It's like it's kind of one of the older stadiums in the NFL.

It's definitely one of the older stadiums, yes. But I do think they revamped it recently. But it is a dome and it needs to be a dome. It is. It could never play outside. The only thing should be a dome. It's like. I'm a retractable roof guy.

Yeah, but retractable roof makes you Super Bowl eligible, right? Well, yeah. That's what I mean. Like, why would build a stadium in the modern era to not make it Super Bowl eligible? Because the people of Northeast Philly would riot down the streets. So? Just saying. They made us this way.

That's not our fault. Like, someone had to grease the first pole. You know what I mean? Someone had to show us the way. We're not a smart bunch. You know what I mean? We're just, you know, you like the torch we follow. You know what I'm saying?

Someone had to go up the pole the first time. Yeah, but you guys do rally. It's probably William Penn. You do like a good rally, you guys. Yeah, I do. You know what I'm saying? Someone had to go up the pole the first time. Yeah, but you guys do rally. It's probably William Penn. You do, like, a good rally, you guys. Yeah, I do. You do, like, a good rally in January. I have some memories. How many sets of your fatigues do you get?

Three sets. Just three, and then you have to wash them yourselves, or are they washed in a... We do it ourselves every year or so. They give us money to buy new ones. Okay. But it's only to replace one set in in reality they only give us enough to really replace like one set so you kind of had to get the rest out of pocket

nice now do you have a choice whether you wear those in public or do you wear regular like street clothes or uh this is our normal working uniform right um i just chose this actually i was actually coming back home to watch this watch the portal? yeah and I was like you know what I walk by here every day going back home

or to work so I was like you know what I'm going to check the portal out you know go make myself seen a little bit there's no audio it's the biggest waste of time

that's fine they can still see me it could be cool it's different countries you could talk shit and be like keep messing around and I'll be right there with you

that's true I was trying to freestyle for Dublin I'm trying to freestyle for Dublin. I'm trying to spin a 16 for Dublin right now. We could go ban for ban. Yeah, Poland's like you start acting up. I might be over there to put you in line. Yeah.

Yeah, it's still an interesting experience, though. I was just like, you know what? I'm heading home. I got to wash those anyways. Sure. I might as well pop by there for a few minutes. That's why I ran into you guys. Yeah, good opportunity. Absolutely.

Anything else? Before you go, why don't you give us your craziest military story that you can share on the internet? And don't hold back. Give it to us full force. Full force? Raw dog it. Yeah.

Okay. I'm going to try to keep this PG rated because I got to keep it somewhat professional. Give us PG-13. Yeah. Our viewers are 13 or older. Like the old school PG-13 where they just said shit., you know, I got to keep it somewhat professional. Give us PG-13. Yeah, our viewers are 13 or older. Like the old school PG-13 where they just said shit. Yeah. Well, I don't know.

We market not safe for kids. And one fuck. One fuck, yeah. One fuck. Like Deadpool. Single. Yeah. Well, not quite like Deadpool, but.

And the thing where like girls cover their boobs, but just their nipples. Like that kind of PG-13. So I remember I was going back in my first tour in New Orleans during my time there. I was actually counted as one of the volunteer opportunities. Although the forest was more fun, but still I took the opportunity to go participate in a couple of the Mardi Gras parades. So I was in quite a few of those. One of the craziest experiences I had is we had a parade float. We had all of our guys walking behind the float and I was driving a little shuttle van right behind our guys so i was driving it so that they could you know if they need to sit down you're walking like a six mile

uh parade route in boots you know it's a good walk in boots so if they're not used to it if they need to sit down i'll drive in the shuttle van for that so i was just driving it you know trying to crank up the stereo to try to keep them party mood up. I had a bunch of girls just come in. One of them actually pulled my head out of the window and just started kissing me in the cheek and the lips. Wow. I had quite a few girls actually flash me. Oh, like their boobs and stuff like that?

Yeah, like actually their boobs. Like Big J Lee was? I mean, you serve the country. You deserve one in every day. It's still unexpected. It's like we did not expect that, to be honest. I did not expect it. You didn't expect.

Go ahead. I know what you're saying. You didn't expect titties in New Orleans? I knew that part. Dora and Mardi Gras? Dora and Mardi Gras? I expected that part. I went September.

I saw like four patches. By the time it happened, I didn't expect it. I was just looking around. Everybody looked normal to me. And then all of a sudden, I see boobs in my face. I was like, wait, what? Yeah. How'd you react?

I was like, dang. You said dang to the dude? I was like, damn. Damn. Shorty love. But it's just like, you know, I'm just like a little shocked. I didn't really know how to react. In my head, I was thinking, damn.

So one of my other guys in the parade actually gave me an idea of ripping my patches off. I could just go get new ones eventually. Give them to the most gorgeous girl I saw. But that would be a big no-no, wasn't it, if you take your patches off? We could go buy new ones. I feel like patches... But if you're sitting there out in public with the patches off, from my understanding, that's a big, big no-no. That's a different branch of Navy. We're kind of okay with that got it as long as you can't wear one patch and one off like you have one on one

off you can't do that you have to have both off or both on damn freaking news navy's chill every time i think of like people ripping chill like that more than 11 more than 11 every time i think of people like ripping patches off i just think of Bruce Willis in Armageddon. Yeah. Where he rips off his patch and gives it to Ben Affleck and puts him back in the thing. He's going to go set the nuke off. Well, I hope you're not ripping off patches because you just called boobs patches a little while ago. That made me nervous.

I called them batches. It sounded like you said two patches. It definitely did. Or four patches. Which I told you in retrospect. I think I might actually steal that. I saw four batches. Yeah.

You can have it because I never said it. All right. Well, this conversation has devolved into nothingness. We appreciate you. Yeah, no problem. Thanks for coming on. Thanks for your service. Thank you very much.

Appreciate your service. Thank you. Thank you guys. Thank you guys for having me on. Have a great night. I think he's a real deal. I disagree. It confirmed I just couldn't find the right questions.

I know for a fact there's no way. I mean, we could like, as soon as he walks away, we could call my stepdad. I know for a fact there's no way. I mean, we could like, as soon as he walks away, we could call my stepdad. I'll FaceTime him right now and ask him. My stepdad's lifelong military. I'm not trying to get like an incident. Nobody wears their fatigues like that.

The fatigues are tucked in. Your shirt's always tucked in. And then your pants are tucked into your boots and your boots are tightened all the way up like midway through your shin. And there's never like an exposed... Are those at knees? You think you might shred? Ryan Sheckler, dude, he's here.

Do a tray flip. Yeah, tray flips are hard. All right. Listen, everybody at home, I don't know how many people from the military that watched this episode, but you gotta let us know

if this guy was a fake or not. And if we're wrong, then we're wrong and we take it on the nose. Yeah, 100%. But just, you know, let us know let us know what the comment section's for. We can't moderate that. No, dude.

People say what they say. Yeah. I don't give a hoot or a hell. I like that. All right. My man, you want to come on? Come on in. Join in.

Dude, we're only going to have dudes on this episode or a bunch of misogynistic pigs. Finally a good episode. Lots of guys. Lots of guys. Lots of dudes. What's up, dude? How are you? What's up? What's going on, man?

What's up, man? Get comfy. Won't keep you too long. It's a little cold. It's a little bit. It's like a little five minutes. Come on in. We're all friends here.

We ain't got no slack. We got no slack on this bitch. I'm technically unemployed. I'm just hanging out. Technically. What's your name? My name's Ty, man. Ty?

Yeah, T-Y, T-Y, Ty. T-Y? Yeah, Ty. Oh, Ty, Ty. Thank you. What do you do? Yeah, what do you do? I got you.

All right, so look, right? So what I do is I have a brand called Sour Heart 215. Okay. I've been being real consistent at it since December 27th, and it's made for up-and-coming artists like within the city i have people from all over i got people from of course philly um i have people from detroit um i had somebody on there named holesville he's from philly i had somebody else on there i interviewed her she's a singer but she always get mistaken for a rapper

so you do like content and stuff you're saying like podcasts and stuff yeah podcast type of content uh she go by telly stoneman yeah um i had somebody else on here she go by mystical river she's a rapper she's from philly nice um and a few other people you know y'all can feel free to check out the content yeah for sure you're a fashion designer right you said it's like clothing clothing brand clothing so yeah the clothing also you know um so i got something called this right here it Yeah, Sour Heart. It's a Sour Heart 215. And the meaning behind the name is, hold up.

Yeah, that was bothering me too. Thank you. So the meaning behind the name actually came from one day I was just sitting in the house and I didn't want to go with bittersweet. And I was just thinking about relationships in general. That's romantically, non-romantically. And I was just thinking about, and like with people, and it ties into the music also because, you know, people that rap, they sing, you know, they got some type of pain, some type of something, things of that nature going on. Sour heart.

So the sour part represents the trauma, the pain, just when things just not right in life right so the heart represents the blood sweat and tears and emotion that you put into it and then on the back of this hat it says uh on the back of my hat it say love because um i think we all trying to get to the ultimate peace and love at the end of it love that so that's the brand message behind. That's nice. What platforms do you use to market yourself? I use Instagram and YouTube. You got to get on the talk. You got to get on TikTok. Oh, man.

Everybody told me to TikTok. I mean, everyone must be right then. Why are you holding back? What's holding you back from the TikTok? No, it's just that I got so much content. I don't try to get caught up on it. I know I need to take five minutes. You just got you just gotta push listen i'll make you a deal i have a half a million followers on tick tock i will wear your brand on tick tock for a week if you make a tick tock account and put a video out by what's today right now uh what is

And then eventually, shout out to Maverick, EMOC. He's a dope artist from Philly. He rap and he do artwork. So shout out to him. Y'all can get with him. When you make hats, do you ever consider the 28-year-old balding community while you're making it? Or the 31-year-old balding community? Do you ever think about guys like us, dude?
