We got to talk about that. Uh-huh. Yeah. Like publicly. Do it. Do it, Z 뽑. You told me in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, he's, he watched. He's, look, man, on camera, point five, Zoom.

It looks farther than what it was. Bro, I'm thinking this is Texas fault. it's not that big of a deal. The only issue in my head I was like, I just don't want to get all my clothes wet, be cold as shit, end up getting sick from this trip. I was like, let's just send hex in. Wait, Blake said you offered them cash?

Yeah, $1,000. No, fucking Nick's like, how much? I'm like, a thousand dollars, go get it. And I was like, but I just didn't want to get all my clothes wet. I thought it'd be freezing. I was like, I don't want this to like ruin my. How many views, Riley? Like, I'm trying to get clips and shit.

I didn't want this to ruin my fishing trip. Uh-huh. Ladies and gentlemen, I want to welcome you to episode 246 of the Optic Podcast, mixed with a little bit of the flycast. This is a flycast. You see? There's enough of the shit. This is episode Who Gives a Fudge? Yeah, look, I, we, we, I too had a little bit of an issue with, with the lineup that we had.

But there is something to be said about the fact that, Maniac and Hitch, like, also belong on the Optic podcast just because I was. I was on the eavesdrop. Did that ever get in the way of that? I don't think so. I went like seven months not being on this pod. And I was like, damn it. This is what? Yeah, I had that exact reaction.

I was like, what? What? Dude, I could check my schedule again and again at month after. Page is like, you don't have to come in on Wednesday. And I'm like, what? Can you imagine? Like, just I can make it. I can make it so where you don't have to come in at all.

I knew that was coming. I knew. It would be easy. Totally joking. We actually want to start by saying thank you to Chris Pena. Christian Pena is the first dude to send something for the mailbox addressed to the race. 57-57 Main Street, Sweet 200, Frisco, Texas, 75034. That is the address here.

That is not an open invite for you to come and visit us. This is a workplace, and it's not just us working here. We have a fucking bank right there, and then we have a dance. studio over there. We have fucking financial analyst and we have some fucking cool system shit. Anyway. And weirdo 100 thieves right there. Yeah. Fuck those guys. Yeah. Listen. And before

you even think about it, you ain't going to catch bow slipping. No lacking. So, Riley, we already opened this and closed it back up. No. Yes, yes. Of course. Of course. So there is going to be a layer of security as we

go through this so that like if you're going to send dead rats. Dead rats. Dead rats. Address to Zinny, it's beeping. Yeah, all of that. Like, we appreciate humor as much as the next person.

On the hour, trust. Open at 9 p.m. at home. Away from the watch party. Yeah. Away from scum. Yeah. But yeah, so thank you to Christian Pena. This will be open during the race.

I want to open it now. No, move that to the side. Why don't you move that behind the newly received, the just recently received, EWC? That is like one of the most fire trophies I've seen in my life. I was. That sounds passionate enough. Yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, back to back championships for the boys.

First time it's ever been done. First time the back to back world championships that was done. But this is the EWC trophy. My God, do they know how to create a good piece of art? I will say that's the coolest trophy I've ever seen. It's up there. Yeah. Look at the attention of detail.

I don't even know what would be... The three broken keys in the base of the trophy. Yeah. That is so cool. Now forever. It is, isn't it? And you know what's cool about that is if you hold it, it's heavy like a trophy should be. Dude, it's like a...

It's like a metal... It's called. It's made of real gold. And you know the address here, so you know, come and get the real gold trophy. Yeah, bite it. like this. No, I'm not picking that. Joe, I love that you put your fingerprints on it.

Yeah, I was smart. No, it's cool. I think we all should. Yeah, let's smudge it. See? Now you're learning. Smudge it all. Zini, you opened up a new account.

Tony. On my food account? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. What is it? Tony can't stop eating. Yeah. What can we expect? Food pictures, food reels, both from Dallas,

mainly Dallas, because I feel like you kind of have to grow in the local market, but also we just. travel a lot. So New Jersey, New York City. It's just... Food. It's just a food account. There you go. Tony can't stop eating on Insta if you guys can see. This is clearly Mr. Charles. That is the egg on the left. Nope.

What's the... That's the prosciutto grilled cheese. Oh, the grilled cheese. And that's new. It's a caviar chicken nugget. The caviar chicken nugget. I've never had that. I've had that. The truffle scarponark. Yes. So is this only fancy shit? Are you doing like... No, I'm going to do everything.

So, well, I have so much. You know how they eat, man. I have so many pictures of food that most of it's like old stuff right now. Ah, nice. But as I keep going, the plan is to be everything, upscale. Los Cex, Taco joints, food chucks, chicken tender places. If you ever in Greenville, North Carolina, I got you. No, no, no.

If you're ever in Hagerstown, Maryland. Dude, if you ever go to Wheeling, I don't know, I go to Joe's Pizza. The hell, hell, I wasn't Wheeling like two days ago. In Wheeling? Wheeling, what? I went to Illinois. I went to a wedding. In Wheeling.

In Wheeling. Where? At the Weston. In Wheeling. Dude, that's where I used to stay at on a regular basis. That's literally just there. Like by Chevy Chase or all that, like the golf courses and the, there's like the Chevy Chase and then West End's right there. Was it a Milwaukee Road?

Yeah. Was there like, like, yeah. I was literally there two days ago. Were you really? Yeah. You didn't fucking tell me you were going to my hometown? I didn't know you... 6-090.

Oh, ooh-oh. I didn't know about that. Wait, you're from Wheeling? Yes. When I think of Hex, I just think Quara is. Or Chihuahua. Yeah.

That's that? Wait. Wait, what? Wait, what? You said, or Chihuahua. Chi-Wawa. Yeah, this is Chihuahua. The state is Chihuahua.

The city is Guards. Don't be, don't be getting me canceled. No, I do have, I do have three. I don't think there's an ounce of racism in Nick, actually. Unless he's trying to be fucking. That's a hit to be trying to pull some shit out. Dude. No, but what I...

Well, actually. What I will say... Like, some ounces. Wheeling. Wheeling's where it's at. There's this new thing going around where people are like, oh, these guys drove all the way from Honolulu from Chihuahua. It's Chihuahua, but they're like Chihuahuaua. And that's that's pretty funny.

I didn't know it was called Chihuahua. There's a few... I got the Chihuahua steak. Chihuahua cheese. From Mago? That where it comes from? I literally went there. Snused.

Why don't you get them all cahete, dude? That's the go-to there. That Chihuahua steak, they ruined. They did fuck it up. It's still good. Yeah, of course. It's meat. That reminds me randomly because of the pronunciation,

Denzel Washington is actually Denzel. Denzel, yeah, yeah. But he doesn't correct people because it's just so. Yeah. I was like, wow. That just ruined my dad. Denzel? Denzel.

But you can't, I mean, he's Denzel. I don't think I'm ever going to say Denzel again. because I know every conversation if you're saying, have you seen that Denzel movie? Everyone's been like, what? And then you just... You say Denzel.

They're like, oh, I've seen it. Oh, Denzel. Yeah. Denzel? That ruins people's days if they start hearing that. Don't ruin mine. Well, you didn't watch that,

the show that we were supposed to watch, right, for homework? I didn't watch it. Oh, no, I completely forgot. I forgot. I did. What one was it? What one was it?

The stranger with him. Unknown caller? Unknown number. Unknown number. No, I did not. Tanner? I watched something else instead. Oh, I did rewatch

Old Boy. Fantastic movie. Shit sickens me. One of the more... Like, dude, what's up, man? I haven't seen it. It is... I know, I knew...

You know I've never seen Old Boy? No. Okay, let's stop talking about it because it'll watch it, watch, watch, watch. I knew Nick, I know it's Nick's favorite movie, but I never seen. Let me guess. That's your favorite movie? The original.

Yeah, of course. Oh, you watched the new shit? No, what's wrong with you, man? You watched a new thing with... I'm not watching subtitles. I'm not reading subtitles. I'm not reading subtitles. titles while hearing other shit.

Bro, I'm gonna, I have a confession to me. And also, the first old boy. I can't hear. I do actually like subtitles. But I watched the Americanized old boy before I even like gave the other one a chance. So I just didn't feel like I needed

because the Americanized one's good. With Brody, right? I haven't even considered watching the Americanized one. Really? Yeah, because I feel like I have to, I am someone that's going to watch the original product.

I have a confession to make. You've been watching Anna. It was just so good. No, not only, no, I've been watching anime since 1997. I just stopped for whatever reason. But, right. Korean dramas on Netflix. Oh.

It started with, with bloodhounds. Have you seen bloodhounds? I don't watch the K drama stuff, but I've heard about it. You're thinking about it the way that I used to think about it. It's like a soap opera, but it's not. Okay, so again, you're thinking about it the way that I used to think about it. It's not that. Bloodhounds, I just started watching it because it's like it's about boxers and

gangs and all that's just fucking dope as fuck. Oh, it's not reality show. No. Oh, okay, okay. No, it's a show. It's a TV show. Gotcha. So I watched that.

And then after that, like a year past, Liv has been recommending that I watch Hunter Hunter, uh, JJK, Jujusa Kisan. Uh, and then, uh,

right now I'm watching Demon Slayer and this one, this one has his hooks on me. Yeah. But anyway, all that aside, I saw, I watched, uh,

uh, fuck, some attorney. fucking K-drama. Bro, I've watched... Is all that anime or is what you're watching? I don't know if it's Korean drama or just Korean shows. But, like, I watch one where this, like, this kid has, like, anger problems or some shit.

It's a high school movie. Not high school movie, but a high school themed show. Again, it's about fighting, like, fucking street fights and all that shit. You know, I'm into that shit, right? So... And then from there, I moved up to the lawyer one. And that one was, like, a real, like, almost a rom-com. towards the end and I was just like,

who the fuck am I? Why the fuck am I enjoyed this so much? Yeah, dude. Just reading? Just locked in reading. Just locked in reading. Yeah, you can't watch that in like, you could watch it with like dubbed,

but I like to feel the passion of the actor and their voice. I can't do the dub stuff. How's it sound? Huh? How's it sound? Kiyu-mammaru. I love that. I didn't know what you were going to come with,

but it was good. Can you so what Mamaru means follow the rules. That was good. Damn, you're learning now too. What? I haven't learned shit in forever. Wait, what's the best, like, subbed show you all have ever watched? That wasn't originally in English.

Dark. Parasite. Dark is really good. I never watched Paras. Is that a movie? Oh, my God, bro. That one won, like... You see Parasite?

That was amazing. Is that a movie? Yeah, it's a movie. I can't forget what it was about. No, it's a movie. It's a Korean movie. It won, like, movie of the year here or, yeah, like

it won the Oscars. Everybody that's It's fantastic. Everybody that doesn't have a fucking thing. It's not, why the fuck are we giving a Korean director fucking in Oscars? It wasn't even in English. That's what Nick said about Bad Bunny in the Super Bowl.

Listen, it could have been. That's not what I said about Bad Bunny. He fucking likes Bad Bunny, I bet. I have a picture with Bad Bunny from his concert. But I was front row seats and met him backstage. No, you didn't. Yes, I did.

No, you did not. Who were you? Oh, hold on. How did you pull that? Just the tickets, or it was. Oh, you bought backstage? Well, it was me and my ex-girlfriend. Oh.

She had some connects. Oh, I see. Oh, I see. Let's move on. What did you say it like that? Me? Yeah. I said, oh, I see.

Uh-huh. Yeah, what does he mean by that? Yeah, why did he say it like that? All right, guys, before we get back. to the podcast live right now on shop.opticgaming.com. We have our brand new Deadwood Collection. I'm rocking the jacket right now. There's a ton of good pieces.

I think that shit's like one of the best things we've ever dropped. Yeah, the Anurac and that jacket. It's a shame. It's still 90 degrees out. October 15th, it's 90 out.

Yeah. Well, I mean, it is kind of warm this year. You want this? Dude, it was so nice in Chicago. Oh, so it was like, it was like chilly. I like put a coat off. I can't wait. I'm singing this shit.

I have so many hoodies. I have so many hoodies. There it is. Oh, what the hell? You can't even see. But apparently, I have a problem with bad bunny. Yo, he's tall, huh? I was obviously joking.

No, I'm not saying it to you. Wait, how long was this? Two girlfriends ago. So what's that? Six months? No, this was Shout out the fit, though. Who's?

Bad Bodies. Well, I was talking mine. Was bad bunny like, Take this fucking shit down. He was still coming up at this time? Or was he already crazy popular? Out of respect for it. Was he selling on arenas?

He was? Was that an arena show? Like he was popping. It was American Airlines. Oh, no. It was, it was. It was, I remember afterwards. I was like, I didn't understand anything, but it was one of the best concerts I've been to, which, I mean, I haven't been to a lot of concerts, but it was really, really good. He was really, really good live.

Like his singing. I thought he would like, I thought he kind of talks. He fucking sings. Yeah, he's good as fuck. No, he's not. Live. Live. But, like, you can make itself sound good on a record. What? You can make it sound good on a record. La la la la la la la la la la la la la He does everything live shit was Of course He's good as far Obviously he's one of the biggest artists in the in the world

I personally don't listen My phone has never Typed in Seen seen a play button pushed on that But also I can say the same thing about Kanye I can say the same thing about So no matter who it is

What's that what's the what's the artist you like? And he's from Chicago That's what's crazy What's the new it? He's from Chicago Kanye? Oh I think he's from No, he's Puerto Rico. What I'm trying to say is that...

Which is American. What I'm trying to say is that no matter who was performing at the Super Bowl, I was not going to fucking watch it anyway. You know what I'm there to watch? If I'm there... All right, Big Dog. What? You're not going to watch Super Bowl half-top a show?

I had never have. I never have either unless it's like... I watched when Eminem came out to... What about Usher? That was... That was my favorite one recent memory. The Dr. Drey, Eminem. Yeah.

Dr. Drey Eminem, 50 cents. I like the Usher one. I think you said it was upside down and shit. I was like, ah, look at them. Dude, the whole thing was fucking dope. I,

when Justin Bieber was singing along to lose yourself, like, I don't know why, but I'm like, I'm like, man, I mean, yeah, obviously I'm a big, big,

Feele's fan. We need a Bieber half-time show. Justin Bieber was singing along with, wait, what was that song? Lose yourself. With Lose yourself, you got chills.

No, I did not. Quote that. No, because everybody, everybody was... Put it on a meme picture of a thing. Thanks, just like this?

Like, no, no. If Justin Beaver went to the Super Bowl I still wouldn't have a fuck the amount of people that give a shit About this sort of shit mine I don't give a shit about football Halftime shows

Who wins, who loses I think the half time shows are always fun I don't think there's been like a bad one I'll enjoy a Prince was really good If we're all in one space Like Seth's house or something And we're all watching that then I can enjoy it But if like that's not happening

I could care less about watching Were you downstairs for the Usher was one For the Usher one Yeah that's all that stuff That made it fun as fuck. That shit was so fun. Yeah. I was like, you know every single song.

I know. I know ludicrous is coming out. I know. Oh, yeah. And then he came out and we were like, I think I vlog that one. That shit was so fun. I don't know.

Again, I don't know. What I was saying is that that's pretty cool that you got a picture with bad bunny. I personally couldn't give a shit. You know me, man. George tweeted y'all got three months to learn Spanish. And he was like, bro, it was bad. The comment section?

Yeah. Dude, the white speech said. Some comments. I don't understand that shit. I don't understand that shit. The most random song that I really like is a song with Mark Anthony, Will Smith and Bad Bunny. And at the end, Bad Bunny comes in and the shit's fire.

Will Smith. But Will Smith has like a really good verse. No, come on. I'm telling you he does. Dude, I used to be the biggest. In this one song randomly. I can't remember the name of it. Bro, I used to be the biggest.

And I mean like a big fan of Will Smith. Like I grew up watching fucking Fresh Prince of Bell. LA. Like, I, bro, I can't, I don't, I can't fuck with him, I just, something about him just just, you know, since the slap? Since the slap.

Yeah, same. Yeah, it's just like, I'm like, you're too big to be picking on someone that small. That's, to me, that was the, the biggest crime. Like, you're too big to be picking on someone. This is crazy. No. I'm an action star.

No, like, crazy good. Not crazy good. Like, have you seen this? No. Dude, it's like, it's insane. It's insane. It's, I wish I. had this type of like, I don't know if I would consider it being unaware, but like,

it's really bad. I could not do this, hear it back, and let that shit go public. No, dude. Like, I, I just wish I had this, like, not. At one point, he literally goes, I'm an action star. Yeah, yeah. I'm an act bizarre. Like, what the hell is?

Star. Oh, no. Watch will y'all This is the bounce back Here come to bounce back Keep your eyes on him This is the bounce back He's like damn I really do Miss Tupac

I mean I think he might be gay What the fuck? I mean I think that's where I think I think that's why He doesn't have an issue with it Well I think

An issue with what Like his wife like stepping out all the time. Well, he steps out. Between entanglements. They both step out. What does that call when they go step out? Open relationship.

Monogamous. Yeah, but I think he steps out. Open relationship. I think he steps out. He's getting fucked. A different way. He's getting fucked? I don't know.

I don't know. I feel like maybe I did hear rumors about that. Dude, during the ditty thing, everybody was hearing rumors about everybody. You know what I'm saying? Again, for me, it was a slap, you know? And it's not like I'm a massive Chris rock fan. I'm not.

I like one of his comedy things. But just the, the sheer like man there just seems something very like I would have done that shit in private

that was that was the first the last for me was his song the creepy ass song he made um you just be all on his music

my fucker has will Smith on his well Smith best tracks Spotify I saw it on TikTok I'm not looking at will Smith albums

he made a song like talking about how girls are pretty or something Maui, wowie. Thank you. How are we like, wait. Don't watch it then.

Did we watch the catfish? Did we talk about the catfish movie? No, because I haven't seen it. Yeah, we'll talk about it. I watched it. It was good. Is it mind-blowing? You won't be surprised.

I saw it coming all the way. Oh, no. Davis, you don't give a shit, huh? See, I hate you. You just going to war on Twitter. Oh, I don't give a fuck. The only thing that I think would make Battlefield 6 a good game would be higher quality maps,

less bloom, better movement for soldiers, too stiff, if better customizations with guns, camos, get rid of vehicles. Less explosive, kind of cheap. At a one-life mode with two bombs, less repetitive experience, a rank system, battle pass and store upgrades. What the fuck is even that? A system to report verbal harassment.

Add an extraction mode. Some more color. Games too bland. More realism. Not realistic enough. Jesus Christ. The ability to build ramps and walls in front of you for protection against the enemy. That's obviously a Fortnite thing.

A Fortnite joke. You know, you know what's good about us? 370,000 badeert. Can you see how many people replied or no? Yeah. 500. The amount of people that can't tell us to the female fucking jokes. I'm not joking.

I'm not joking. I'm that serious. Wait, go down, go down, go down. I want to see some of the actual replies. We get it. You bumps only like hot. Anything slightly different you can handle. Go play a Wars one until you're 20. You can't handle.

I'm more of a Tarkov guy. Oh. I just kept saying like, look, look, the next one. I'm more of a Halo 3 player. So you just kept... Every time someone said, go back to Cod, I would just say a different game.

So elated Farmerstein says, so you're the guy that makes video games extremely lame. I personally never made a video game. See, I just can't even... I can't fathom the brain of seeing something like this and replying in a serious matter.

Riley, see how many... It blows my mind. See how many replies my... This shit is ass tweet has. And what were you talking about in it in that case? Keep it down, down. down. That.

811. 1.4 million. Dude, I'm telling you the Battlefield community. Once you had that, you're like, I got to keep going.

I was like, who's the cow? I have to keep going. Look at Riley. Look at Riley. Harding the fuck out of that fucking October 12th and shit. Yeah, Riley.

Get off my nuts. Riley has it bookmarked, retweeted, favorite it. But honestly, the camo is not great. It's a mastery camo and it looks like a

first camo. Dude, not even, Call of Duty is any other. No, you can't criticize. You cannot criticize this game. Bro, I've never seen someone like in my life.

It's like, you cannot criticize this game. Did I forget every other battlefield that's happened? I like it. The game comes out. Everyone plays it for a week. And then only battlefield people

play it after that. Yeah. And everyone thought it was going to be different this time. And I was like, dude, it's still fucking battlefield. I think it's,

first of all, it's well polished. Oh, it's one of the best battlefields I've ever played. Also, the legend behind there is a man by the man, a man by the name

of Vince Sampela who created Call 2, Call 34. They called him up and said, Big Dog, we need you. Yeah, well, when he got fired, so Activision fired him, according to what I remember, he got fired because they didn't want to pay him his $36 million bonus if

Modern Warfare 2, like, blew the fuck up. So they fired him, and then he went to create respawn entertainment, which brought Titanfall, Apex Legends. Damn. And then now this. Oh, Jedi. Yeah, bro. This guy

This guy's... That's a track record. Yeah. Yeah. That's a... Dude. Yeah. Yeah.

Cod, like, what is it? Cod 4, Mono for 2. I have a picture with I'm at an industry... IGA industry gaming awards from... Yeah, I just can't believe the... I mean, I respect the fandom, but if anybody talks shit about Call Duty, I don't give a fuck. Yeah, I don't care. I don't care either.

If anybody's like, yo, call duty sucks, I'm like... Nice. Like, you say Battlefield, uh, it just feels like, oh, what? the fuck are you talking about cod kid it's like dude you can't you can't criticize the game slightly no you can't you can't even to be fair i used to get very defensive when people talk shit about call of duty i mean obviously self-serving because you know optic you know was was i'm a call-duty kid at heart i love call of duty i think i figured this out yesterday like in bed last night after playing chowls with fatty i was like you were reevaluating

i was like you know i think i'm stuck in the call of duty box and i'm like and i think that's okay I just genuinely love playing Call of Duty, and I just need to realize that and be okay with that going forward. Because I do love it. I play Battlefield, but I barely enjoy Call of Duty pubs, so I don't expect myself

to go play Battlefield pubs and enjoy it. The BR, I think, is going to be cool, hopefully. I think the BR is going to be great. That's a different ball game. The BR is something I can play consistently. I can't play Ground War 32 v. 32, sprint to cross the map, and die to a tank. I want to fucking blow my brains out in game.

It's not great. This is dope. This has like, like, yeah, they love realism, but then they also love this, which is fine. It's not a realistic game. It's a war-based game, and I'll give them that. What the hell? But people will say it's a realistic game. It's not.

It's not realistic at all in the slightest. It's more realistic than Call the Duty with the Walls, with the Wall Bouncers. I mean, technically you could kind of do this. Sure. Yeah, so. Oh, that was cool. Yes, it's fire. Sniping is really cool in this game.

Sniping's fun. Striping's sick. I think the gunplay is really nice. Except the bloom. The bloom is ass. It is like maybe I'm misremembering but growing up playing Battlefield

I played it from time to time it just felt so heavy and slow this is the best iteration of Battlefield in terms of moving and snapping on people like it feels don't massacre me a little more codesque

than it ever has before in terms of like the gunplay I think the gunplay's good but again you just die to people you die to people camping in corners like laying laying down pre-aming a doorway so then you don't run through that doorway

you run out into the open and then you get sniped from like 900 yards away or you run across the street and there's a tank that blows you up I'm just like I'm just that's all I got in me I would just be a medic that's what I was doing that I'm excited for the VR you run past I saw a clip of someone just

and just I saw a medic highlight clip. And I was like, why has this been my favorite clip so far? Yeah, I played it for a bit. I'm just waiting for Black Ops 7. You know what I will say, though?

If Blackop 7 wouldn't have been as good as it fucking was because it was fucking good, like literally good. And anybody that says that we get paid to say, trust me, I don't fucking, I have no reason to be nice on this. But, you know, the developers and the

artists that create these games should get their props. And therefore, I do give them their props. And Black Ops 7, I can't tell you the last time that I woke up and said, I got to hop on to see if I could get another clip. You know what I mean? It's been at least a decade since I've woken up and said, I got to get a clip. I mean, I think what I'm really grateful for is it seems like there's a nice little rivalry between Battlefield and Call of Duty. And I think it'll only make both games better. How good? I think it's fantastic. How good? Be honest. I don't think I've

seen this video. Wait, whoa, whoa, whoa, pause that. Pause that. Go back. You know, you. So, I'm sitting there editing my vlog and I'm like, holy fuck, I'm going to do a montage right in between. Because I say here, I'm like, watch this montage. Assuming that I was going to get like a couple of more clips at the beta, but then I just started using other weapons and I started getting shit on and I just gave up. But then I started playing the beta and then this came from it. And I just mixed it in. And I edited it. I haven't edited a fucking sniper montage that's fucking call three for.

Riley, put some music on. Yeah, let me hear this shit in the beginning. Oh, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause, pause. You're going to have to, like, we're going to get. copyright strike because this Gundam thing is like that so I don't think you should play it but play it for

Nick and then cut it just let me hear that I want No you know rewind it rewind it That's my favorite part Put the shit up Somebody's got to do it for the Culture culture culture culture

Culture culture Dude that's like a humdrum at it From what I fucking would make shit like this Though this next part, I was fucking crying. I showed to Jewish she didn't laugh. That is good. Right there's like, can you shoot? A little.

I like the best play right here too. That's just so fire. I'm this picture in Hector in his room editing this shit. Just high as high. High as fuck. Dude, it just, for some reason, I'm thinking of the dodge ball guys walking out. I just, every, I love how every. clips a different color correction.

Yep. I got boca flares flying everywhere right here. I use that same effect when, when, what the fun? Or whatever it is, borderlands. Every clip's a different effect. I used those boca balls when Seth was wrapped off of the hum drums in the scuba. That's so good. I just fucking, I'm like, bump the.

Oh, shit. The jump. I jump off the wall here. Oh, this is good. Sand it right there. Game winning kill can. A little sound, some.

Oh, yeah. I haven't played... God's back. I haven't played a game that has made me want to do like just play for fun. See if I get a clip. Just don't give a fuck about the objective,

the score, the going three and 19. I would have enjoyed Battlefield more as to what I'm saying, if I wouldn't, I had just played a fucking excellent fucking game like this. Everyone's like, assuming we're lying

when we say we really love the game, but I mean, there's not much we can do. Everyone's like, well, you were positive during the Blackop six beta. It was like, well,

was a pretty good beta. The issue was, there was no maps that came out after that were good. So the map, the maps let that game down. The beta was good. This beta,

I think the gun play is better. I think this might be the best like, Trey Arc, because I usually don't like how TreyRourke games feel, besides Blackouts, four. Three? I didn't, well, I didn't. I don't.

The Razorback, baby? It feels a little IW. Yeah, it does. It feels like IW. And I know that's like a sin to say. I know like there's probably a little healthy rivalry between Trey Arc, Infinity Awards, Judge Hammer, but it does feel

I do think, you can say what you want about IW. Their gunplay is always fantastic. Like MW19. Oh, Infinity Award. Yeah. Yeah. Like the, that game wasn't great. I know casually it was loved,

but the gunplay was fantastic. Infinite worth, yeah. A little I-W-esque, and it feels good. Yeah, the bullets feel like they hit as soon as you shoot, which is nice. But, yeah, I mean, I like the game, and I like that Trey-Ark, it seems like, I don't know this for a fact, but it seems like Trey-Arc is putting pressure on Activision. Yeah. And that has always been the issue.

It does, it does not matter how good a Cod is. It will always be bad if there are cheater skill-based matchmaking. this like Activision shit on top of it. Now it seems like like I also think they should get they should knock back aim assist a lot. Like yeah yeah yeah. Because it is so easy.

I'd be cool with that. It is so easy. People are miserable. I tweeted no SBMM. They said minimal. LOL. Do you know what that means? I'm like dude, you need to fuck yourself. That's what you need to do. You need to fuck yourself.

Just do it, man. Dude, no. But open matchmaking for the race, I was like, bro, we might, we might finish in six days. Dude, we might fucking, like, get so many nukes. Like, I need my first nuke on the RTP. Yeah, because, like, Seth was, Seth was going through hell. I usually had, like, pretty good lobbies because I didn't play with my headset and I just

talked to chat. Yeah. Yeah. So I had, like, pretty ass lobbies, but I was going like 40. Not ass lobbies. Were you playing right after Seth would play, Zinn would play, then I would play. and I would get shit on I lowered for hit

his signs on yeah then I sign on and I get it then we turn around Pam still to so I should so I should go I should go before Seth is what you're saying

yes yeah yeah listen I don't know about this ricochet anti-s no apparently it's no I play and then Seth plays the thing is I'm not sure to give them like easier a lot

I'm not sure how much stock to put in the ricochet stuff me either because I can't is are there usually cheaters and betas? Like I feel like usually the cheaters really come out within like the first month of the game being out. Maybe I'm tricking. I don't remember Blackop Six being riddled with cheaters. So I'm taking this with a small grain of salt, but... I can't remember. The things that you have to do

to play this game, like turning on TPM 2.0, secure boot, whatever, definitely makes it a little more mind-easing and actually believing that this year could be different. I mean, they have, they have to. It's, it is... Yeah, do or die now. Because it's not, like it is not it is not fix it or we play Battlefield it is fix it or everyone play something else yeah I'm not interested in playing Battlefield but I will play Ark Raiders

the fuck is that it's like a new game that's coming out it's that game has so much hype it's a new game coming out in like three days I can't fucking wait for that game what's it about it's an extraction shooter it's a third person it doesn't matter what sentence I was going to say that was what you're gonna

wait what is a third person shooter yeah it's like a third person extraction so you like load you loot up, go in, and you try to slay out. The world looks sick. Yeah, and it looks fine. I'm cool. The same way that my brain is incapable of listening or playing some Kanye West or whatever the

fuck is the same reason why I can't play new fucking games. No, I just, my brain is stupid like that. It's just likes what it fuck it likes and it's cool with it. I want to see you beat out in ring. I don't, I couldn't. I couldn't. The impossible. I wouldn't even. How far did you get before you quit? What came

that the beta came out and I was like Yeah, fuck it This happens to me every single time I'm telling you I have cod brain I'm such a cod addict where it's like I'll start I started telling you all of my friends Recently is God of war All of my friends that are here

Besides Pomage Would have to Do it in one sitting You would have to sit down and play And not stop playing until you beat it Because once you take a few days off You never want to get back Once you break you'll never go back

You forget about little things what was I trying to do? I had to go get this medallion. Now I don't know where it is. Yo, where's the chatter in the chat that was helping me the whole time? They're not here. So now what should I do?

Do I go rank up? I'm dying to this guy 300 times. No, that game's definitely something. You sit down and you beat that game. You make it sound miserable, but that game is the best game. I would rather swim out to my boat to get my boat 10 more times than to do that.

Oh, my God. Guess what I fucking realized. Like a fucking moron that I am. The thing is is, I consider myself a very, you know, common sense, intelligent dude. But, dude, there's a ladder. There's a ladder on my boat. All you have to do is pull a pin and the ladder falls.

And the toughest part about getting on the boat was me trying to pull myself off the boat without like contorting my body to have my heel touch the ladder. And in my head is like, in my brain now, I'm like, why didn't I realize in the moment that those are ladders? And all you got to do is pull the pin. Because I remember afterwards you were like, I'm going to have to get a ladder install. I think you said something like that. No, I'm like, why doesn't this shit come on a fucking ladder?

We got to talk about that. You said something about it. Uh-huh. Yeah. Like publicly. Do it. Do it. Do it, Zini. You told me in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the, in the way here. You as a young fit man, watched our, watched our, watch our, listen, man, 45-year-old, swim to that boat. Out of shape, out of shape, 45-year-old. Instead of just hopping in and getting it done in one minute. He's, you watched him struggle. On camera, point five, Zoom. it looks farther than what it was. I figured... Wait, how far do you think it actually was?

30, 40 yards? Dude, I don't think. Yeah. It's like half a football field. Not half. 30, maybe. I'm so happy Mark's been vlogging. Because Mark's like...

Laugh? It's everything, like the shit heel randomly said. Look up. Look. I'm halfway there. Bro, I'm thinking this is Texas fall. It's not that big of a deal. Yes. The only issue, in my half,

head I was like, I just don't want to get all my clothes wet, be cold as shit, end up getting sick from this trip. I was like, let's just send Hex in. Wait, Blake said you offered them cash? Yeah, $1,000. No, fucking Nick's like, how much? I'm like, a thousand dollars, go get it. And I was like, but I just, I just didn't want to get all my clothes wet. I thought it'd be freezing.

I was like, I don't want this to like ruin my. How many views, really? Like, I'm trying to get clips and shit. I didn't want this to ruin my fishing trip. Uh-huh. I thought Hax was going to jump in and just like, start. I tried, but the shit kept up pulling me back. He went in, immediately flops through his back.

No, go back. No, go back. Just starts pedaling his feet. When I tried to go like this, the lifesaver pulled me down, so I would have been swimming with my fucking mouth down. Like, I didn't, if I knew it was that much of a challenge, I would have win it. Look, see that? Like, right there I flipped immediately. That show's pulling me down.

We were supposed to shoot, or I was supposed to get some photographs of the new basters gear. It just made this so much harder than what it had to be. If I knew it was that much of a struggle, I would have. And I would have took the band. You guys are scumbags, dude. Huh? You're just way uncomfortable. For the record, for the record.

That was a good experience for him, man. Yeah. I don't remember that till. For the, can we go, Riley, open up Embo's vlog and then go to the part where, where they're both like, where maniac says it's a good experience for him. And then watch, watch the 10 seconds of. of realization of like unless he fucking dies. No, there is no, I didn't look at getting the boat like, can he do it? Can he do it?

Is this going to, you know, he's old, he's getting older. I didn't, my thing was just like, whoever's getting in, their clothes are getting wet, and their day's going to be fucking ruined. I didn't look at it as like he's going to be in the middle between the boat in the land. No more, more, more. Wait, is he going to die? You guys made Riley drive an hour and a half at 2.30 in the morning? Poor Riley, yeah.

Poor Riley. Riley loves the shit. You should have started at the dock. You should have started at the dock. You can get tired of this house swimming out there. See, I would have jumped off the dock. Fucking, hang. Right here, right here.

There's like 10 seconds of realization and worry. I swim as far out as possible. It's deep. Because here we're watching him struggle and we're like, wait a second. That means I'm going to swim to the bottom. They never come on. Watch, watch, watch. But if the anchors are down, can he bring the boat?

I don't know what the fuck. I don't chat. We're chilling here. We're doing the intro to the podcast and out of nowhere. Wait, did you say? Is that your boat? No, someone else. I think I think that's my boat.

He was like, nah, it's not. It was like a black figure inside of a black. Watch how good boss is here. When he's like, yeah, you should have done is what you should have done. It makes sense. I saw something black floating a light. Watch. Like, what the fuck?

You gotta figure it out. Right here, right here. Watch what he says. Kind of feel bad. Right here, right here. Watch both. You should have jumped in. Yes, you're the most in shape.

It makes sense. What? Yeah, but this is a good experience. He's going to look back at this. Look at this. At this point, we're like, wait a second. Y'all are both like, wait. Look, look, look.

Oh, my. I'm so glad he didn't cut this. like he's going to look back on the I'm so glad He's watching him struggle Listen man I just didn't think it'd go down I thought it'd be smooth

I thought it would just It was just gonna fucking suck Your clothes are gonna get wet wet Might get sick It's gonna suck Let just go get the boat It'd be hilarious if you guys were just like Yeah a long time ago apparently

Hey Bunny It'd be hilarious As you and Bose were zoned out And him struggling You just hear plop and Riley's fucking... Dude. We were discussing that.

Yeah, Riley should have gone. Like, no, no, no, no, no. I was like, if he goes under, I got to dive right in. Okay, so... If he goes under, I'm diving right in, too. But I'm just going to swim even further out and just start swimming to the bottom because everything's fucked.

No, listen, listen, listen, listen. I don't think that I would have let anybody go in there. Like, it was my mistake. And in the thing... You wouldn't let anyone save you? No, not save me, but like, to go in there instead... Like, it was my mistake. I should have gone in the water, and I did.

Like, whatever, all that. And the thing is, is, like, none of, like, the over exhaustion that I had would have happened if I would have just remember to pull the pin and drop the fucking mini ladder. I'm so stupid. But, you know. Good times. Yeah, excellent times. Was that not a, was that was a really good vlog day. Like, I wish I would have been vlogging that.

That was good. It was good, man. We got to run it back. We got to run it back. We got to go catch some fish for real. And next time, you know, actually catch one. Yeah. And that can be the highlight of the video.

Yes. Yes. Yeah. boat being 40 yards. The thing is, is like, the propeller was, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the trolling motor in the front was out of battery. I just got a call from the boat place as to say, hey, you know, all the batteries are fucked, blah, blah, blah.

So if we would have had that, we would have caught fish, 100%. It's, like, it's, it's, it's, like, it's mega important for you to move along the bank quietly and then just cover as much ground as possible. We were like pulling up, shutting down. By the time that, it was, anyway, it was, it was, it was fucked. But I stayed on the boat, wet as fuck. Luckily, I brought a shirt for you that I was going to take pictures of you for bashers. I was going to take pictures of bows.

I was going to take pictures of everything. But I was just so wet that I didn't give a shit. I was just like, man. I brought a towel for you. Thank you, man. You already knew ahead of time. This guy. It was just already in my bag.

He brought a fucking speaker, brought fucking tanning lotion. We were on the water. I started like playing music. Bro, shut the fuck up. Saring the fish. I was like, what the f. All right. Let's get back on topic.

We have Cloud 9, Rumor Team Beans, Afro, Mac, and Vivid. Yeah, there's a lot of, I would say, negativity around that roster. But we're at the point where I think most teams formed at this point are going to be met with negativity because they're like the last two, three teams to form.

No matter what roster they put out, it's maybe like they could have got this guy. I think it's pretty good. I think Afro, I've been a big proponent of him coming back into the game. If I may interject, you're telling me, GM, that you would take Beans, Afro, Mac, and Vivid over the Omit team that made it so far at EWC as a squad?

See. From a point of the perspective of what's going to bring attention to my team, what's going to bring eyeballs to my team? I would have brought that Omit team down with a fucking, with a camera in front of their face, from fucking jump, from the jump. I said this. My number one priority for any team, and I'm talking about Serge, Cloud 9, Rocker,

and Serge Cloud 9, Rocker, who's the fourth team I'm thinking of? Carolina. My number one priority would be Mamba and Grays together. Because, like, those two unknown quantities, Vivid and Mac, I think some people just like, they put more stock into their pro performance this past, year rather than that EWC run, which I kind of disagree with because I think Mac was coming off a hiatus, Reese was running an AR for the first time. My number one priority, no matter what,

would have Mamba and Kray's together. Yeah. Now you have Mamba and Skies on Rocker, which to me, I would have picked between Mamba or Skies if you're going to go that route instead of having both. I like Estreel Kramp duo, and now it's most likely going to be Slasher and Craze looking for 2-1 Carolina, which I'm not anti-slash-er. A lot of people are these days just because he's the oldest player in the league. They say he's slow. I understand. I still think he's a good player. Let me ask you a question. Crazy is fantastic. Is he the guy behind the banning of the snipers? Because I'm going to form an opinion on my man Slashar here. No, that's just...

Okay, okay. Slasher, you're still cool with me, Patna? Not that you care. It's all of O. I'm not sure if he's the one. I do think they're going to use snipers this year because I think the backlash... I think if the pros counteract how much positivity we have around Cod for the first time and a long time by doing something like that, I think everyone's going to go more nuts than they ever have before. I feel like you got to try it for a tournament. I'm going to tell you what.

Try it for a weekend, a tournament, some matches. This one I'm going to do. Look at the cameras, I'm going to say this. Listen, you players, you guys banned snipers, I am going to get together with all the team owners and we're going to boycott paying you, motherfucker. How do you like that? GA salaries?

And guess what? We've got GA salaries. And guess what? The green wall and all. All the fans of Call of Duty are on our side. So what are you going to do then? What are you going to bitch publicly to apply pressure to the owners? No, us the owners and the fandom want the sniper back.

See, Dylan Codd, see, he shouldn't assign to that team. I would have him a Zen City visa. We'd have him in the U.S. in Dallas. And I'd sell him. It's very simple. Yeah, what's up with Dylan Cod? I mean, obviously he was fucking super good. He was dirty at Black Ops 4, fell off the face of the earth.

There were rumors around what he had going on personally. What rumors? I mean, don't spread them. I just need to know. What? I'll say it live here. Guys, don't listen.

Listen. They were saying he was partying and, you know, didn't have his head in the game. He was knee-acking. Neacking. Come on. Here's the thing, though. If he goes and plays well in Challenger,

he's going to get picked up so damn fast. Yeah. He just, he has that spotlight on him. But he signed to a team in Belfast, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, yeah. The Belfast, uh, the rangers.

It's some, Belfast Storm, maybe? Do you hear Riley's Mouse wheel? He's like, where is it? Where is it? Off topic, he introduced me to the GM at catch yesterday day and he said, hey, this is the GM

of our teams. I'm just like, you actually introduced me as the GM now? I'm like, hell yeah. I got the fucking job. Wait, who introduced you to? Hector. He's like, yo, can you give me a reservation to catch or we're going to catch?

Can you let the guy know, the GM there? No, when he came up to you? Well, because Mark's like, can I wear a hat? And I was like, well, let me talk to the manager. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So I'm like, hey, this is Anthony. He's the GM of all of our teams. Oh, you said that.

Yeah. And then that guy mentioned it to you? No, but it's just funny because I'm like, we met the guy when we were last time we were there with him. Yeah. I met him a few times. But I think I'm happy he's back. Hopefully his head's in the game. This is a game for him.

If he's Black Ops 4-esque, I mean, we just haven't seen him in so long. so hard to actually, but assuming he can pick up where he left off, this is the game for him. Listen. Someone's got to get him that visa. See, if I was the, I'd have him on a substitute contract on a pro team already working on his visa. Because the risk is worth. Tex is listening. The fruit.

The risk is worth the reward? The risk is worth the fruit. The risk is low-hanging fruit? Yeah. The risk is worth the low-hanging fruit. The juice is worth the squeeze. The juice is worth the squeeze. Like the, what's it called the neighbor?

Next door neighbor? What was the, the girl next door is worth the squeeze? Was the Jews worth to squeeze? Oh, yeah. Losing your wife is worth finding your next wife. No, it's don't let your wife get in the way of finding your true love. Is that what it is? I don't know if that's what it is.

I just read it somewhere. I did not say that one, right? Your wife is, uh... Don't lose your wife. Well, loser, but All right, so that was my only question just simply because if you see a proven team who doesn't compete on a regular basis against pro teams

do what they did at EWC, I would have tried, especially if I'm like a lower team with not that much exposure. From what I know, the reason is the teams that I think they wanted to go together to a team, each of those teams had a guy or two guys that they didn't want to move on from

in order to bring that whole team. I wouldn't have called a friendship team. The rumor is legend on surge. I don't think... How do you feel about that? How do I feel about from what angle? Is he ready?

That's the question. He's not. He's playing at Halo World. October 24th through 26. The rumor is the league's going to start early December, mid-December. That gives him. him is a month or under enough time for him to fully be ready?

Yeah. That's the question. I don't know. Maybe yes, maybe no. Listen, he's not ready right now. I don't think so. When people are like, he's not ready, fucking obviously. He's playing professional Halo at a level that you're not playing call a duty at.

But it's still. Okay? Secondly, let him fucking get warmed up. Brother, Shotsie had a year of Cod before he got, before he actually played pro. He was grinding it. And he still started off a little slow. Like legend might be a situation where even if he starts off slow, that's to be expected. It's not like a normal pickup in the sense of you're expecting him to be at this level at this time.

You understand that there might be a bit of a growing curve and hopefully it's worth the reward. Everyone that switches over, it doesn't, it's not immediate. Like it took shotsy a little bit. It took Frosty a little bit. It took Mentle a little bit whenever Mentals switched over. And now Mentals killing it in Halo, right? Yeah. That took him.

a lot longer than didn't Cod. I think legend will be all right and I'm happy he's getting a shot. I think so... Go ahead. If it's true that he...

Of course. Rumors. Allegedly. And I think a lot of challengers get upset by things like that and to what then I will have to say is life is not fair. These things happen.

That's just the way it goes. What was that about? Like some challenger players get upset when like someone comes in from Halo and gets an immediate pro spot or when my breach team picked up capsitol they're like this guy hasn't proved anything. Yeah.

It's like, it's not about that. It's about the unknown quantity. Like, if you don't understand that, probably why you're in challenge it. As mean as that might have sounded. It's not mean, dude. Like, it's not mean. It's just the facts, right?

It's just the plain facts. Some of the players. It's investing early. This is one of the best Halo players. This is one of the best Halo players switch over, formal, enable, even snake bite, ace, all of these sniped down. All of those guys went pro.

There was a few more that continue to do better, formal, enable, Shotsie. But it's just like you take the best from Halo and you bring them over. Now, it's not going to be everyone, but people that are really, especially young people and super skilled and they play faster, those kind of play styles in Halo. Like, I think it's going to do well in Cod. And it's probably, you know, it's a little risky, but it's probably worth the fucking investment. It's a fantastic move. Assuming knowing most of these teams are not paying top dollar, they're paying. towards the lower end of the league.

That's an issue. You're trying to get the most bang for your little buck. You want to ideally find new players that are going to improve or diamonds in the rough to make that make sense. Otherwise, you're just recycling the same guys that everyone's going to call shit over and over and over again. I love the move. I'm happy for them.

If it's true. If it's true. And I'm excited to see what Carolina does because I think that's the team we're waiting on now. if you were frosty would you stay no fuck no after worlds why stay what stay in halo

in halo no because he's already said he's staying in halo does he makes sense yeah champ well frosty knows what comes with switching over to CDL he knows the schedule he knows like maybe he just maybe he understands okay if I did switch

but who's gonna pay him yeah if I did switch what I get on a top team if I'm not gonna get on a top team I'm gonna get it on challengers team how much are they gonna be willing to pay Oh, uh, 800 bucks a month. Who's gonna pay him as a Halo pro?

That's what I was wondering. Well, there's gonna be, one, maybe slightly, it'd be shit if anything. But two, he might make more money

just competing in Halo tournaments and winning every event since there might not be competition. True, then he still gets to stream it. Still might make more money. I like it. Yeah.

Maintaining, being on top, even though Halo will be at a decline. It might make more sense, even financially, and probably a lot more piece of mind. just sticking the halo instead of like I disagree with it.

Making the making minimum for the switch to Kahn. Especially this game. Rossi was good too. And I've been telling. What did he play backups four? Would he play backups four? What or?

Maybe he doesn't want W19. Rossi, yeah, 19. He was on the mutineers. He knows what comes with it, right? They want a... What I don't understand is why why they don't just like, like, like I was talking a formal

in an interview and I'm like, I'm like, man, whatever you want to do, like I want to, if you do choose Apex or anything else I want to be the Yes! The fucking king's in the house! What's up, man?

But yeah, I think you think Frosty should stay or go? Halo. Yeah, switch the cod. He should definitely play this game. Yeah.

Go back to College Duty. Your grace agrees. Yeah. They're going to have a little sum. What I've told some of these guys is, and this works mainly for the guys that have multiple offers,

is they're not going to pay you anything good, get a one-year deal. That way you prove yourself for a year, you're on that salary, then you have your pick of the litter next year if you proved yourself. And this, obviously, if you have one-off or one-offer only,

that's more difficult. But some of these guys had multiple, and I'm like, make sure you're on a one-year deal. The last thing you want to do is be stuck on a minimum salary back-to-back years. Yeah.

If you can avoid it. So do your best to get a one-year deal. That's true. Yeah, we can go to around the internet. Yeah, let's do it around the internet and then send ourselves home. Oh, no, Zinny. Listen, I got turned on bad.

Oh, he got worse. Oh, I saw that. But, hold on. But it happens to the best of us, and we won this chowel and I dropped 10 the next two maps. This was bad. Yeah, but watch this.

Damn. Let me explain why this actually happened, though. And I'm not exaggerating. Let me tell you why this actually happened. It's because I had my controller plugged into the front of the PS5. No, bro, everybody knows goes in the back.

back. I swear. That has to be it. That's the only explanation. Oh, no. Yo, I want to ask Riley a question. Why was that like the number one around the internet? Because people love you? I like this. Scumst surpasses 800 million views on YouTube. First ever, NACAD, 800,000. So if you, if you multiply 800 times, what is it, $2.50 cents? like how much how much 8,000 times 250 or $2,050? I don't know what you're doing. 8,000 or 800 million? Seth, show us your YouTube studio.

800 million. How much, you know, Seth, show us your analytics? 800 million. Let's just see it. All time. Say one mill is 10 grand. One mill is 10 grand. But then also he's probably getting 15K for some of the videos.

I wonder how much. That by 800. What's 15K times 800? YouTube studio. Yeah, I don't know that. I don't think it's, I don't think it's, I don't think it's, I don't. think it goes that way like that, but uploaded his first video in March 1st,

yeah of course the bottom right this is all time all time yeah damn for YouTube yeah for YouTube

yeah for YouTube yeah revenue and then estimated and then lifetime

a hundred a hundred thousand dollars That makes no sense It might be like Does that make sense to you? No, because I think 2018 It doesn't count before YouTube studio came out So like you're, oh wait

All your bangers from 2012 Yeah, they're not gonna be on that That makes no sense because this that's very wrong That has to be wrong It says 121,000 770 That has to be wrong Well I trust me
