Yeah, what do you guys think about it?
Because obviously, we're, like, competing in it.
So for us, it's more like a competitive fun.
It doesn't care.
Every year, it's the same shit.
This one is different, though.
You have to admit.
This one does look different.
I think I've heard that exactly.
I think I've heard that exactly for literally 10 years straight.
What is up, everybody?
Welcome to another episode of the Optic Podcast, episode 179.
And let's go ahead and get the cat out of the fucking bad.
Actually before we do that we got the all-star squad
This is the if you're wondering why it's just us today. It's because we politely turned down the request to go to Mexico
Yeah
To scump hit me up and I was like no
I don't want to do that
He was like bro do you want to you want to be my bachelor party and I was like nah
I gotta hang out with shots see
I like I would
So he has a bachelor party in Mexico? Yeah
He didn't tell y'all either that
Oh, see, that's why I'm here hanging out with you.
Oh, he didn't ask you this.
Nah.
I mean, I wasn't expecting him to ask.
Yeah, what are you expecting?
What even is a bachelor party?
It's when you take all your groomsmen and you all go party.
Wait, what's considered like a gurusman, though?
Like the dudes that stand next to you at your wedding.
How many people? Is it only limited?
No, so basically you can do however many you want.
I was a groomsman for Blake's wedding.
So Blake had a best man and then like five groomsmen.
So there were six of us.
So you could have 20 if you actually wanted to?
Yeah, but no one really does that.
But like a lot of the times,
a lot of the times it's weird because you got to like kind of balance it.
So if your, if your girl has like nine friends,
then you got to find nine dudes.
Oh, yeah.
You know what I mean?
Because you want nine guys next to you and nine girls.
Are you all salty or not?
No, I'm only, I'm only, I'm not salty at all.
Yeah, no, definitely.
What were you going to say?
I'm only a little salty because the only thing I want to do is go to Mexico with the boys.
It's the only thing I want to do.
And it's like, and I didn't even, I didn't even like hear about this.
Nor like did I expect an invite to his bachelor party.
But it's just like, like if they were to, if they were going to like Vegas or something,
I'd be like, I don't give a fuck.
I want to go.
Like, I wouldn't go on anyway.
But since.
That's what my bachelor party is going to be.
I'll be there
But like Mexico
It's just
I don't know
bro, it just sounds so fun
So that's why I'm a little salty
But I'm not salty
Like you kind of get over there
It's all right man
It's such much
Let it out
No I do wish
That I went to
That's the only thing I ever want to do
Is like get everyone in Optic together
Go to Mexico
You know what fuck it
We'll just go with that set.
Imagine we just go today.
And we see him there.
We're like, dude, you're here?
What?
Hacks like DM me earlier.
And he was like, yo, what did he fucking say?
He said something about coming.
Yo, hop on a flight and come here.
I'm like, shut the fuck out.
It would be fun, though.
What I've heard is that.
I definitely have FOMO.
What I've heard is that Seth didn't invite more people to his bachelor party because he was already.
Cool.
No, he was like,
already he feels bad about how as he should be the person to invite people and like having to
cut it's like that might be eight yeah yeah you obviously you probably obviously want to
like he's he went with his best friends like i i get oh yeah i was i like he's going what some so like
my bachelor party i'm not going to just like have groomsmen there my groomsman there i heard that's what
it's that's the point of it yeah he's like it's like it's just supposed to be you and your groomsman
but like i'm going to have a relatively small wedding i'm assuming so like i'm just
just going to invite all my
closest guy. Because I have a
decent amount of, like, close
guy friends, so I'm just going to invite
everybody. Yeah, but what do you
say? He said, um...
Oh, he feels bad because of the destination. I think Hacks made this up for
him. You think, oh, which is
God dear friend, if he did.
What do you say? He said that Seth feels
bad because of the destination wedding.
Yeah. That everybody has to pay to go out there.
Wherever going to his wedding is already
expensive. Oh, y'all can't
go, can you? I'm going. I'm going.
Are you?
I did ask you.
Yeah, Damon's going to play for me the one match.
Dude, you had me.
I was like, what the fuck?
I actually, I actually forgot.
When is it?
I mean, it's a couple months, a couple weeks away.
Oh, yeah.
Soon enough.
No, no, no.
I don't know what's announced and what's not.
I don't know what, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, the destination's not even announced.
Yeah, you can't say like where we're going.
But it's just, it's going to be expensive.
Because I still haven't got my fucking shit.
Yeah, you need to hear.
As, how much do, like, does a suit and shit cost?
Like, if you want to get it properly done?
Like, a suit tailored and all that.
Is it expensive?
I'm going to figure that out then.
It depends.
I've never, like, I've never bought a little.
You can get, like, a good suit for, like, a couple hundred bucks?
But I feel like you can, like...
But you can also get, like, a suit for $30,000.
Don't they, like, you just rent suits?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Like, you can just, like, rent a suit for probably, like, a couple hundred.
I rented one for, like, the ESports Awards.
Oh, we didn't.
We did rent that shit.
That was the formal.
Palms are overrated as fuck I'm going on.
Formal.
Oh.
Yeah, God, dude.
I create, have you guys ever seen that clip of me?
I accepted a, it was that the ESports Awards in, like, 2017?
Fucked up.
And I had to accept an award for formal because, of course, he doesn't want to go.
Because he's just like me.
He, like, I have this fear of just, like, public speaking.
Like, I can't fucking.
do it. And like Formal doesn't like that
shit either. Like I know he doesn't like interviews.
He doesn't like it. Like he's never
shown up to an award show.
So,
Hex flies me and hitch out with him
and I think Optic got an award. Did you get
win an award? Yeah, that was my first award.
But like, I'm figuring I'm just going for
vibes. And then as we're sitting
at the table and like
final, Hex is like, yo, you're going to accept
Forma's award. I'm like, what the fuck?
And this is at the time. He starts pounding
drinks. This is at the time I'm
This is at the time I'm taking Zanz and shit
So it's like I didn't take some Zans
But I probably took like a Zan
I started drinking like I just got so
I just had to like
And it's crazy because like no one gives a fuck
I'm accepting an award for someone else
It's not like I did no
Don't actually play this
This like
I didn't see it bro
I didn't see it play like
I genuinely like don't want to be
would you play.
I'm not.
I'm drunk as fuck.
Bro, I haven't...
...dewan minutes ago, I've been informed that we're accepting this for Matthew Piper.
One of the greatest teammates that I've had in...
Dude, I was so nervous, but I also...
Alright, we get the point.
We get the point.
He looked like out of a movie, bro.
I swear to God.
More than form of himself.
See, like, this makes me even more.
See, now I'm like, see, I fucking knew I hated it.
Like, I can't do it.
No, that was even bad.
It was a...
It wasn't as bad.
It was just funny because of what you're telling us.
Like, the context of it makes it funny.
Well, I mean, I don't know.
I was just...
It just...
No one gives a fuck.
And it's just like I'm accepting an award for someone else.
It's not like I did some like amazing thing.
Yeah, yeah.
Like,
give like some warm heartfelt speech or something.
Like I could literally just say, you know, I think you got so much.
Formal's the man.
He loves you all.
It's funny.
You accepted them for, uh, uh, for, I think Formals won two Eastports awards.
You accepted the first one.
I accepted the second one.
Oh, you accepted the second?
Yeah.
And I just go up there and they ask me to accept it too.
I was like, I'm not going back there.
Not again.
But that's an anomaly situation
Except an award for someone else
You know how fucking random that is?
Yeah
That happened so much
At the East sports awards though
Yeah so much
Well we're fucking
NERG gamers
No one wants to go up there
In front of like hundreds of people there
And then like thousands watching
I think a bye
It was super nerve around
I think Abai has won like nine
E sports awards
And he's never been there
Who is?
A Bai
The guy from Spain
You know who that is?
He like he runs the Kings League
He's like one of the biggest streamers in the world
this guy
he's
he's from Spain

how many followers is he
I just can't
15.6 million
How many viewers are to get it
a lot
a lot
I mean his rebroad
has three million views
his rebroad
fuck
yeah he's a
League Legends
no soccer
soccer
oh
well I mean he's just
just like a good content creator but
yeah so after after that
speech though I blacked out and
found hitching my room at like 2 a.m.
checking on me
it's a good time
for more good time
that shit yeah that's
that's yeah that's she who is fuck
why were we talking about that I can't remember what
what are you talking about that oh like renting a suit
renting a suit that's what that's what it was
you said you rented one for prom
oh yeah that shit was fucking uh I'm pretty
sure I rented one I almost remember
because I'm pretty sure, like, buying it was just way too expensive.
It was, like, 300 or some shit.
So I was like, yeah, let me just rent this shit.
That shit was oversized, I remember.
Really?
It's like, remember, didn't Seth have some big-ass suit at, um.
The first E-sports awards?
Because he didn't, he didn't, like, get it.
I don't know what the hell he did.
He just go there and, like, buy one right off the shelf, like, didn't get it fitted or anything.
It just had some big-ass suit on accepting some award.
Driving a Ford Fusion, big-ass suit, multi-millionaire.
Multi-millionaire.
Dude, I don't make sense.
I kind of like, I kind of like rocking a jacket whenever I can.
No, but in Australia, like, horse racing is big.
Like, when I used to get, when I go there with my friends, we all wear suits and shit.
Really?
Yeah, bro.
Wait for what?
Horse racing.
Oh, horse racing?
Everyone dresses up, like, you know, like the Melbourne Cup?
You guys ever heard about that shit?
No.
Kentucky Derby.
It's like basically similar to that shit.
But, like, in Australia, in Australia, horse racing is insane.
Huh?
Yeah, just dressed up?
Yeah, everyone wears a suit there.
It's crazy.
Even all the girls wear, like, proper fancy shit.
I'm, I'm about.
I'm about to get into horse racing and like racing, not like gambling, but like raising.
My girl's dad raises the horses and like there's there's so, yeah, they're like, they're like,
they try to get like the elite genetics. They can, they'll sell them for like over a million dollars.
Really? Like, that's great. That's a little. Bro, horses are so much money.
Like she can put in like 510K for like a baby.
And then once it gets older and they like raise it right the sell for like 50 60k even like more than that
You know why horse racing is big like let's just say there's a horse and it's winning every race and if that horse
Like that horse that that that horse that that is offspring. Yeah offspring whatever whatever whatever they call it is so like the value of that
That's how I got my dog is great his his his yeah Greyhound racing his his dad one like races and shit his dad
His dad won like it was like the most successful Greyhound
at that casino in Australia.
What in Australia?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What track?
I know every track.
I have no fucking cruel.
That's insane.
What's the dog's name?
What was the son Zambora Pete?
Zambora breed.
Is your dog a Zambora?
Yeah.
Dude, that is crazy.
Yeah, that was his racing name.
Yeah, yeah.
Wow, I'm actually fucking mind-blown.
So his dad won like...
Oh, yeah.
Zamboa breeds are like fucking insane.
Dang, there's rocket.
He won over like 600K in like racing.
So then they studded him out and I mean.
Bro, there's a dog called Zambora Tiger and that thing is a fucking rocket.
Really?
That's actually crazy.
You bought a breed.
Wow.
Which how did you even get that?
There's a place around here in DFW called Galt, GALT and it's a greyhound like rescue.
And they just bus in or they send in greyhounds.
from Ireland and Australia
because that's where
Yeah, that's where they are.
That's where all the Greyhound racing
racers are.
They're so fucking crazy in that too.
That's great.
Like once you start,
you can just like,
like, say Seth right now.
Seth could just
fucking quadruple his money
just by like getting into horse racing
and just like starting to buy horses,
get insurance on them,
raise them and then sell them.
If he bought a wink street,
if you have money to like buy
these certain breeds.
I didn't even know that she was like...
If Sef bore...
And then just make sure you raise them without them, like, getting...
I didn't know, like, that show was actually big.
Bro, it's huge.
If Seth bought a winks, like, horse breed,
I...
I feel like you should get in that.
Bro, I've looked into it, bro.
Those white people sports?
Golf and cricket, horse racing.
Cash.
Like, cash.
It's just...
You got to get insurance on it.
Because, like, horses get bit by spiders or some shit, like...
Oh, really?
Like, in Australia, there's, like, a horse
that was, like, supposed to win, like, a massive tournament.
Of course.
And it got bit by a spider and they're, like, it
basically that to put it down because the horse was going to die.
What?
But I'm not much money of those people put into that horse.
You know what I'm saying?
Like training the horse itself.
And then like it breaks its leg or some shit happens.
Which is why like it's such a fucking super risky business, dude.
Yeah, it is risky.
Me and my girl on like the, she was asking me if I wouldn't get involved.
I'm like, fuck.
Yeah.
No, it's fine though.
And then make 50 grand and like within a year.
Within a year.
It's actually really good investment.
If the horse is like properly breeded.
and trained and shit. Yeah, her dad, like, raises
them all. Oh, Zamora.
Yeah, Fernando.
Dude, Tommy Shelby, you know that's my favorite dog.
He's worth 14 million?
The dog is worth 14 million?
He's in Perth. He fucking never lost.
Are these dogs happy?
Fuck, no. Is it fucked up?
Yes. Yes.
There's a trainer called Mark Faruga.
There's a trainer called Mark Faruga in, um, in Australia.
And like, it was like a fucking big thing.
It was like, apparently he was like fucking,
I remember exactly what it was, bro.
Maybe it wasn't him.
But I don't know if it was him.
It was like a greyhound that, like, a trainer that kept his dogs, like, didn't feed them.
Didn't, like, just put him in, like, in a, like, a dark room.
So when they would run, like, they would be, like, fucking petrified and, like, they would sprint after the food.
Because, like, they put, like, a little rabbit.
And that's what the dog chase.
So, like, the dogs that he would have, like, what a fucking same.
Yeah, you can't be running on a full stomach.
Yeah.
Mace has, like, a spot on his side.
And it can't grow hair.
And I was asked, I was asking the vet.
And she was like, that's most likely because greyhounds can't, they can't sit.
They have to lay down like on their side because it's just how their like butts are.
And it's probably from like no padding or anything and just like concrete floors and him laying on that spot on his body for like his whole life.
And I was like, damn.
Like yeah, it's definitely fucked.
I'm sure they.
I'm surprised like mystery.
People have been outraged about it.
Oh, I think they have.
There's no more.
There's no more tracks in America.
Oh, really?
Yeah, there used to be tracks in like Florida and like the south, like especially like...
For dogs?
Yeah, for Greyhound racing.
Is it different for horses then?
Like I guess horses are...
I think horses are treated better.
Treated way better.
I mean, that's what I assume.
I don't know.
Horses are definitely traded better.
You're just making millions off these fucking dogs.
You're keeping in a dark room barely feeding them so they just go fast.
I bet you these guys find the stud and then just throw females at them.
and have like
probably like
a hundred dogs
and then you try to find
the fastest out of them
and then I bet you a lot of these people
just get rid of the other ones
like like a way
like they try to find the fastest
of the puppies
of no I'm gonna say like get rid of them out
just sell them
or sell them or
sell them or worse
sell them to hedge
best
no no because the dogs that
the dogs that are here
are dogs that raced
made it through racing
and retired.
So that's a minuscule amount
of the amount of dogs
that are born into it.
So there's probably some
fucked up shit they have in.
When they talk about
these fucking dogs
like holy fuck
like remember whenever that guy
did that shit
or not the guy
but like the dog
Go on YouTube right now
top up good one.
Like some legendary moments.
Yeah like there has to like
I'll show you insane
and I was on this dog
this is why I remember
like when Jordan hit the free throw
there's like some
some shit like that word
sea biscuit
Yeah, is there any like game winner?
No, YouTube, typing good and then J-U-A-N.
And then Greyhound.
Good-Gy-U-A-N and then Greyhound Race and then it's the greatest, yeah.
What is this highlight?
I don't even know, I've never even...
Top 10, Greyhound moments of 2020.
Damn, you know, this is, this just super popular in Australia?
I've been at this track, I've watched this live.
You've watched this live?
Not this race, but I've been at this place live.
Sydney's where I live.
Okay, watch this.
I'm pretty, if this is the one,
Look how fucking fast they are.
Listen, who do you think is going to win the race right now?
Where is he?
Not even in the picture.
That's how fucking dog shit he is, right?
Look at him.
Number eight.
Yeah.
Watch him, watch what he.
I swear.
This is Tommy Shelby?
The Rockets in last place.
No, it's a good one.
Yeah, the rocket.
Look, the race is almost done.
There's maybe, I don't know, 80 feet left or some shit.
80 meters, whatever the fuck you guys call it.
Look at this.
Do you think he's going to win from here?
They're on the straight right now.
Look at him.
Oh, shit.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
Oh my God.
That thing is what?
I bet people in the stands are going crazy.
That thing was paying at that time five to one.
So like you put five X your money, whatever, like to win the race.
Yeah.
Like he was like, that was like, bro, in Australia that was like fucking LeBron James and one dog.
Like you're sitting there with like five million on this dog, but you only win one million.
No, you make five million.
No, you put one million and you win five.
Yeah, you put one for that dog.
It's a five X, that for that specific dog in that race.
But did he?
So was he even looked at as someone who could win?
He was like top three favorite.
He was like top three.
It was like two other dogs that should have won before.
How the fuck did he do this?
He just turned the jet song.
How does he know to turn the jet song?
He doesn't.
That's what I'm saying.
Look at that.
Look at that.
Do you know how quick that is, bro?
My God's like a cheetah.
Jesus.
Dude.
That dog looks like Mace too.
The crowd.
That's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
But that, that fucking dog could be honestly a Zambore breed.
Damn, I need more highlight reels.
I need more highlight reels.
Like, is there.
Is there like a Jordan?
So you were on that one or there?
Yeah.
Is there a LeBron of dog racing?
I don't know.
Or it's just like, fuck.
This guy like, it's just batter.
That's crazy.
That's crazy.
This one, this was actually insane in Australia
when this dog did that.
You ever been to one of these?
Yeah, I've been to heaps of these, bro.
I have a photo of Thomas Shelby.
What the fuck?
In Tommy Shelby?
I don't know if you know.
It's like top three dog, but I have a photo with him.
So instead of like baseball games,
y'all are like going to shit like this?
Yeah, no dead ass.
There's no baseball in Australia.
Is there horse racing?
Yeah, horse racing is,
Huge in Australia.
Humongous, dude.
Prize winnings in Australia,
Melbourne Cup.
We have a day off.
Like, no one goes to work or school on that day.
What?
What?
Really?
Yeah,

Holy shit.
Is that the biggest thing there?
Like,
what's bigger,
as far as,
like, I guess.
Australian football.
Like,
AFL.
Like soccer?
Like soccer?
It's AFL.
It's like a different type of football.
It's like rugby league and then the NFL.
Oh, okay.
It's huge.
It's like 100,000,
like, in the stands.
Like in the stadium.
Really?
Yeah.
Holy shit.
Do you still keep up with it?
Me?
Yeah, I watch it.
I watch it.
It's like at 3 in the morning.
I watch it like all.
Yeah.
I wake up fucking practice.
Fucking one eye open sometimes.
Watching that shit.
Dude,
that's funny.
But yeah, Australia is like, dude, I'm telling you, bro.
I would not expect any of what I just said.
No, it was a fucking insane country when it comes to that shit.
Like, but people love that shit.
Like horse racing, bro.
People come up their fucking, like, newspaper and they just fucking type, like, writing shit down about a horse.
Yeah, this horse likes like when it's wet.
What?
It gets real into it.
Insane strats.
Like, you don't understand how crazy it is.
Like, millionaires come, bro.
Put, like, five million dollars on a horse to win a race.
You know how crazy that is?
And there's, like, nine horses.
And it's like, it's like, obviously broadcasts.
And it goes, like, biggest bet.
And then it'll come up on the bottom left.
Two million for this horse to win.
And then everyone's like, holy fuck, this horse has to win.
So then everyone's putting money on it.
And then it loses.
And then everyone's fucking losing it at the track.
And it's just fucking hilarious, bro.
Oh, my God.
And the girls go there just because everyone's dressed up, you know?
Like, the girls don't even get with this, like,
it's such a fancy, like, old.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, peekie blinders.
They're just there to, like, mate.
Yeah, and everyone gets champagne there.
Like, everyone drinks alcohol, obviously, but the main drink there is champagne.
So everyone thinks to.
And it's free? And meth.
Huh?
On the race, and that's not free.
I went to rehab with an Australian.
He liked meth.
Did you?
Strongers go hard.
Hell yeah.
It's like, oh, we love math.
Mate.
Australians go hard.
I'll give him that.
Those guys fucking don't know how to party.

never like looked up a race no bro it's huge that's crazy yeah and the jockeys have to be
very like small and light like they can't be yeah yeah yeah like you know it's pretty like like
like i think last year it the scary thing about it is because the jockeys are so small and light and
like fragile like um one of them fell off the horse and then got trampled on by like two other
the horses and he ended up dying.
What?
Yeah, bro.
It's such, so sad.
Yeah, they weigh like 90 to like 105 pounds or something, don't they?

Jokies are like the guys that ride the horse.
The guys that ride the horse.

And then because he fell off, the horse, like fell on top of him and another one
trampled on him.
Damn.
Well, how many of horses away?

Yeah, I'm pretty sure.
That is insane.
I don't much.
300 was too, fucking, that's like a baby horse.
I must do jockeys away.
900 to 1200 pounds.
Imagine being 100 pounds.
110 to 115 pounds are jockey.
Imagine being like 120 pounds and then like that just trampling on you.
That's why it's a dangerous.
It's also a dangerous, bro.
But sometimes the horse can just lose control and just fucking, you know what I mean?
It's an animal.
Yeah, Crim Six fucking doing his racing shit.
That's crazy.
Crim Six
and him
going, I would not want
to race against Crim Six
because he will.
And I don't want to even say the word
but like he will die for that W.
And I don't want to
because like genuinely there's like genuine danger in this shit.
Yeah.
But like Crim is the type of dude that like I wonder
if he has like beef in that type of shit.
I saw a quote by like some racer
and they were like what
he got asked like
how did you
how did you have the courage to overtake
whatever at the last part
and he said it's because I knew the racer
that I was racing against
has a wife and kid at home and I don't
dude shit goes
that's fucking insane
so I knew he would let up but I won't
that's an insane line and I was like
what though
imagine thinking that in the split second
so when did that
I don't know I saw it on like TikTok
or something but I was like that shit goes hard
I don't understand all racers do
do that. Because like you know they're
overtaking you and it's like I can
stop this but this motherfucker is just
we're both going to wipe out.
Is it the motherfucker's basically saying
we're both wiping out or I'm winning.
That's how people drive on the toilet.
There's rules though.
There's rules there's rules.
There's rules.
Now there's rules we have to give like a certain amount of space.
Like if that person wins that space
like in F1 if they take like this space you have to
give them the space if that makes sense.
Actually not. Yeah.
You all ever seen that
clip of the NASCAR guy that just said
fuck it and rode the wall? No.
Wait, what? I think I did. Can you load
that up? Let me see this shit. So this guy is just
like, he's just like an average driver.
I mean, he's a NASCAR driver, so he's
godlike. I thought that was a movie.
No, but he's just like, he's sitting there driving
and he just says, fuck it. Rides
the wall and comes in and
overtakes like four people. Like doesn't
slow down for the turn. Like rides
the wall. It is fucking crazy.
Look at this shit.
I need to see this.
Look at that. Look at that.
Look how fast he's going.
What the fuck?
He overtook like five cars.
Is this last lap?
Yeah, he's fucking wheels and shit would be getting fucking destroyed.
That's insane.
What the fuck?
They, after this, they banned this.
So you can't do it anymore.
Do you hate it?
And I guess this was the last turn.
He just said, fuck it.
What the fuck it?
What's the size behind that?
Take a look of what he is.
And then he just passed like fucking eight cars.
Just passed so many cars.
Just went from like...
Bro, that could have been...
It could have been so bad.
You could have fucking flipped 20 times.
Look at that in real time.
Dude, he's going like 200 miles an hour.
And they're all like, yeah.
Fuck yeah.
Yeah.
Get them, buddy.
Was that like the ending?
Yeah, that was the finish.
Oh my God.
So he just said, fuck it and just went.
Imagine like, you gotta get top eight to qualify for champs.
And like...
You're in fucking 12.
You're in 12th and just fool this off.
Wait, wait, what's bigger by the other way?
NASCAR, F1.
F1.
What's the biggest, like, racing thing?
F1.
F1.
I would assume.
I don't really know.
I'm from the South, so like, everyone watch NASCAR.
It's weird how they become such, what's the word?
I just feel like no one, has F1 always been, it's like a newer thing that people have just made a big deal.
It's been around forever.
I mean, I know it's been around, but it's because, I can't think of the word.
but it's like become a
it's just become a cool thing to fuck with
holy shit
70 million
70 million for F1
and NASCAR averages 3 million
like it's become like a whole culture
Wow
70 like girls want to go
I'm telling you I think a rich dude
everyone gets a boat and just sits on the fucking thing
It's just like a very like rich people thing
It's such a rich people thing
And like I think did a
I don't know what the popularity
I want to know what the popularity was before and after Drive to Survive came out.
I feel like that's when it.
Yeah.
When was that out?
Like COVID, right?
Like 2019?
I never watched any of that stuff.
I don't think I watched it.
You haven't watched it?
It's like a Netflix series where they...
Oh, wait, no, no.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, it's pretty damn good.
It's like when like Seth streaming or on the watch party or something, it would be like,
yo, Lando and the...
Sorry.
Hang in.
We're like, yo, Lando in the chat
And everyone's like,
yo, what's up, Landy,
know, the race and I'm like,
I haven't seen any.
I literally don't think I've watched the race.
But Lando won a race we do.
But I feel like I'm missing out.
Didn't Lando win one?
Yeah, he won recently.
I think it was an audio
I come around where race it was.
I haven't watched any.
I don't know what they think about
like the, like, just actual roads.
Like, whenever they're driving their shit,
like, do you think they like,
so bull?
Look at it so differently?
Yeah, they're like, wow.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Have you ever?
Nick and I have talked about this before,
so.
but have you ever heard of the man t-tie island man t-tie?
Oh what is that?
Dude, it's a, it's an island,
Matt's gonna look it up,
it's an island where they allow
a street,
street racing for motorcycles
and like by the government
for one race a year
and it's on average one person dies every year.
Damn.
They're going, dog,
watch how fast these motherfuckers are going.
Is this it?
Can you look like a drive-by?
like a
you on me like these are just regular roads
but they like obviously they clear it out
so other cars and shit oh yeah
like regular
these are just regular roads that motherfuckers drive on
and these dudes are going 200
look at that
that's fucking insane
can you look up one that's like a
I think they're called flybyes
it's like am it like
just people on the side of the road
rather than super produced
because in the productions it doesn't seem like
look how fast they're going
I'm like, gopros.
Oh, yeah, these, these.
Meow.
Yeah.
Dude.
People are just...
Bro.
On the side of...
God.
It's like a jet plane.
If you hit a pebble,
I watched an interview with one guy,
and he said...
He said the worst you want to be is in...
is the first person to go
because the birds haven't cleared out yet.
Oh.
So you're going like 100 or 250 miles.
miles an hour or however fast they're going.
That's fucking insane.
And like the closest people are sitting.
Oh yeah.
So do people not wanna be in...
Look at this guy.
Oh my girl.
He wants to ride on.
Look at him.
You got me fucked as if it would be like a troll.
Like, I swear that someone would troll and like put the hand out like, oh, like, like, like...
Oh yeah.
Yeah, like some like some crazy people.
I would not trust that.
You would be put in jail.
Oh, for sure.
That's attempted murder.
So you tell me this is an island?
Yeah, it's on an island.
It's the man.
I think it's the Is the Isle of Man.
the Isle of Man or something and then the race is the TT race.
I forgot what TT stands for, but
I mean,
people that,
like,
if you interview these guys,
they're all crazy.
They're all insane.
Yeah.
Because like if they,
this is like the peak adrenaline they'll get.
Like,
they'll race this,
they'll race this race every year
until they can't race it anymore or they die.
Like,
those are the two reasons.
Like they're all freaks.
Like Halo 30.
I don't,
I don't think it's...
I don't think it's...
Once you take 300 MGs by Halo 3, I...
The rest of your life is just like this is all there is the life.
It's fucking insane.
Yeah, but that's kind of how I felt watching drive to survive is like...
Whenever...
Because I never really understood the appeal of F1, but then you see like the aerial shots of them going through like Paris and shit.
And they're like...
They look like pod racing, dude.
They're just fucking fast.
Like the left and right is and they're so low to the ground like they're literally like on the on the road
Yeah, dude's just scary bro fuck that you got me fucked though
That scares the fuck at me bro when I'm in a car if someone even if I'm in on the road and someone's just driving fast
I'm like I get so paranoid actually in Texas that's what I'm saying I get so anxious bro in the tollway today I was getting passed
I was in the middle lane which I'm usually in the left lane but I was in the middle lane getting like fucking zoom in Texas people I was like do
I'm like going like people looking at you yeah
In fact people are flying yeah I'm just like am I going six
see, I looked down, I was going 801.
And they're flying past me.
Texas is crazy.
Coming from Australia, that's the biggest, one of the biggest differences is that shit.
Because in Australia, there's like red light cameras, speed cameras everywhere.
You lose your license.
You get fine.
Here, I don't see any of that shit anyway.
Do you guys even have speed cameras?
We did in Chicago.
I don't know.
In Texas, there isn't.
I did in Maryland.
Yeah.
Over here there isn't.
Because holy...
Speed cameras?
What do you mean?
Like, they have cameras and there'll be a sign.
It'll be like speed camera like in this area.
And then like so people know like in Australia, okay, the speed camera, what's the limit?
Okay, 100, I can't go over this.
100.
But we go kilometers.
Like I've gotten a ticket from a speed camera before.
Going like 40 and a 20.
Yeah, you're just getting mailed a ticket.
Yeah, 150 bucks or something.
It was banned.
They banned.
It's not legal in Texas.
Damn.
Well, no fucking wonder everyone's flying.
Speeding cams aren't legal.
In Australia, when I'm driving, like, let's just say I'm going to the airport and like,
I don't know what 100.
Can you type? I don't know what 100 kilometers is in a miles.

No, what's 100, like, 100 kilometers is like our, like, limit.
120 is the max you can go to Australia.
Oh, really?
No, that's not even 120.
I'm guessing.
110.
In Australia, the max you can go is 110.
Okay, so like 65, probably.
Yeah, 68.
That's like the max you can go.
Maybe a little bit more.
I'll just say 70 miles is the max you can go.
That's like, you're at the max.
Yeah, yeah, basically.
And if you go anything over that and like, like, there's just cops just sitting on the side of the road.
And the second they see you, they have, like, they're holding the cameras in the car.
Second they see you go by, boom, do you have a ticket?
Huh?
No, fuck, no.
I have like an app on my phone.
It just tells me if they're like nearby.
So then everyone in Australia speeds and the second they see like that,
they're slowly down for the next 10 minutes.
And then they start going again.
But like over here, fuck me.
Over here, the cops are passing you.
Yeah, yeah.
Like casually driving.
Everyone drives with their phone.
In Australia, if you drive with your phone, you get fucking.
The cop drives by and sees you on your phone, they're pulling you over.
And here, everyone's on their phone.
I'm like, holy fuck, do you?
I'm not.
I was used.
I mean, it's not good to talk about, but like in Chicago, like I would check my phone or not like text while driving, but like if I felt a buzz, I'd do a quick one of these.
I can't, I do not do that in Texas.
Yeah.
Fuck that.
I remember when we would blog sometimes if like I'm in the passenger and you're driving or something and you like look down like the comments, be like, yo, here, seriously, bro, stop looking at your phone.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it would be.
Whatever I, uh, which is, which is good, which is good.
good.
It is a good thing.
But in Chicago or in Texas, you don't even
fuck it.
Dude,
like,
I think it's like the,
like out of the five most dangerous
roads highways in America,
like four of them are in Dallas.
Like,
not Texas.
Like,
I think maybe three of them.
Three of them are in Dallas and one of them's in Houston.
In Dallas,
it's actually a video game.
It's ego maniac.
No,
bro,
it has someone,
right?
The speed limit is 75.
Like,
this guy,
like,
I passed it because I had to get in the left lane
because the fucking,
the axle lane was to the left
and the truck behind me
fucking cut me or like he passed around me
cut me and was fucking break checking my shit
what the fuck I was like dude
what the fuck is right they are
like think about how many idiots
there are around here and just the fact that
you're alongside of them driving
I have a new like how many dumb tweets
you see
yeah right look at that
Dallas Houston Dallas Dallas Dallas Dallas
Dallas
Houston Dallas
I told you Dallas Miami's
I told you
Dallas Miami
and Houston own the top 10.
I don't know the names.
I actually saw that in TikTok too.
Like what are we driving on?
Are we driving on those?
35 East?
I don't know.
I don't know what the toy is.
All I know is, dude, the drive to Arlington,
like when we had the tournament,
like when I drove from here to Arlington,
holy fuck, I was pissing my pants every time.
Really?
Oh, bro.
It's so like the open.
And you got past six flags.
And you get to one of those,
you get to one.
of those underpasses. The first time I came to Texas, I was like, what? It's like four
stories high of just like over, of like turnpikes and underpasses. You're going under
them. You're like, what the fuck? I was in Dante's Corvette driving fucking to major three
to Arlington. I've never in my life fucking thought I was going to die. I swear to God.
He's just flying cars are flying. I'm like, holy. What's the toll? What's the to
what's the to way that? It's not, I don't know any of the fucking. I forget
I was talking to, but they were like, yeah, I had home at about Dallas 6, 35.
But they do it all the time.
I do it.
They do that.
I drive this shit.
Yeah, I drive it every day.
I don't know.
I don't care which way I'm going.
I'm on the tollway.
That's what I'm saying.
I don't even know like my nearby street.
And like, I put in like, I was, I was picking up a U-Haul and I was driving with
Jukin and he got, like, mad that I used the GPS.
I was like, all right, I'm going to put in the U-Haul.
And he was like, don't.
I've lived here my whole life.
Like, shot.
Okay, Dukin.
Okay, Dukin.
Black off six announcement.
Have you all talked about it yet?
I have on stream.
I know you're creaming yourself.
Omnibuement, that's just gonna be fun as fuck.
What I'm actually interested about, like,
because obviously,
like, whenever you,
obviously whenever you, uh,
obviously whenever you sprint forward, right?
Like, you got your tax print, right?
But obviously you, like,
we're doing the click it.
I'm pretty sure, like, it'll,
The clip with the blue
The four
I just want to see
Because like
What I'm curious about
Is that whenever you go to like
The left or right
How do you get your full sprint
That's insane
That there is
Like do you double click to the left
Instead of just going forward
And then left
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah
You double click to the left
That's what it's gonna be
Yeah so basically how you sprint forward
It's how you sprint to the left
So like you just click to the right
Click bottom
How do you know that then?
Because it showed the
When they were doing it
He showed the stick
Can you like clicking?
Yeah he showed the controller
No
But that was just the regular sprint
Can you can you
tack sprint left and right yeah yeah you can you can yeah I'm pretty sure right like
straight thing left right like look at that shit like he's not clicking it in he's just like
that's just regular sprint though yeah I don't think you can tax sprint dude if you
I mean how would you even be able to tax print backwards that's insane that's insane like that would
be I don't actually just about watching that actually I mean I don't know because he's just
he's only a single sprint that's that's like the the jog sprint yeah like the regular
yeah I really wonder if the shit I actually like
via your maintain
like...
Nah, you could, no way.
I think you could,
no way.
This is what I find insane.
That is crazy.
This is insane.
I'm gonna abuse the fuck man.
This,
what I've always wanted in the game
is literally to where you could dive
and shit at the same time.
I know it's like so unrealistic
but I've always wanted that
in the...
I just wonder what the pull-up time's gonna be,
you know?
Like, if like as you're diving,
if it's gonna be an instant shoot
or it's gonna be like a del animation
or if you dive,
is there gonna be like recoil or...
Bro, look that.
That's what is fucking insane.
That's a lot of you guys.
Do you all like Triart games?
Like y'all too?
I don't know.
Cold War was mid as fuck.
I don't know.
I like Blackupsville.
Fun wise, listen.
Competitive wise, it was Godlike.
Yes, because the maps were like good.
We had Ray, Terminal, fucking Garrison.
Terminal.
Checkmate.
Terminal?
Yeah, well, S&D.
Express, wasn't it?
Or, yeah, Express.
Holy fuck.
Yeah, we all we had all those good maps and, like,
competitively is fun because, because like, everything made sense.
But, like, from, like, a fun standpoint, like, bro, there was league play
and it wasn't really like a ranking system.
There was no ranking system.
And like, yeah, if you actually played pubs,
I don't know.
I didn't really enjoy it.
I could be faded,
but it was very stale in my opinion.
It was very stale.
No ranking systems insane.
No, there was a ranked play,
and if you played it,
you got your rank,
and then you couldn't progress.
That was your rank.
And then in order to progress,
you'd have to win a certain number of games
in that slot of time,
which is like two weeks.
And then after,
that two weeks you could break up.
It was, it gave you like a set time
of like grind these next two weeks
and then we'll see where you're...
I don't even know.
That's the best way to put it.
It was style.
What game was that?
Cold War.
It was a super.
I barely played to be honest.
I'm pretty sure actually
you probably...
That's why I got kind of like cooked for it,
but I was saying that this game that we have right now
as far as like overall game and experience
is probably like the best we've had.
Oh, for sure.
In the CDL era.
Or CDL.
In the CDL era at least.
I feel like,
W if it was on PC would have been got like 100%
If we played on awesome
Yeah there was no, there was no
More for like war zone like just like
Playing that like in general
Just like hopping on and just having fun
Cause I don't know cold war bro that shit was fucking
That show was boring I just I only had fun playing AIDS
Aids streaming that was the only time I had fun
The Vanguard was lit
Dangar? I liked it
I like the gun play
Your game yeah
Yeah, yeah
You're a bias
That's like Kenny saying World War II was awesome
Yeah actually I forgot about that
No, like the gunplay of the game.
No, Vanguard.
What would you?
Vanguard of this year.
Like, like, fun-wise.
Fun-wise.
Actually, bro, that was your rookie year, dude.
That's what I'm saying.
But I'm not even talking about, like, what I did and how good it was.
But I'm talking about the actual gunplay on the game.
All right.
I feel like like gunplay.
I think about like Scrum.
I feel like the maps were better on that game than away on this game.
You guys are both arguing your rookie years.
You're arguing M.W.
He's arguing.
I'm arguing.
I'm not even talking about, I'm just talking about the actual gunplay and the maps.
I will agree.
The maps were definitely better.
The maps this year, the DLCs, the Rio Vista, 6th, I saved this game.
If we were playing fucking Invasion Heartpoint, Skidra Heartpoint,
we would have been like, brother, we would have been retired waiting for this game to come out.
I would have been at the Bachelor Party right now.
If the fucking Invasion Heartpoint and Skiddra Heart Point.
Yeah, I'd probably still be here.
Wait, no, I do have a question, Fred.
How did you get so good and go pro living in Australia?
Yeah.
Bro, that's actually,
people like,
with that ping,
how did you play?
I didn't play against,
I only played against Australian people,
so I never played against,
like,
on a shit ping,
like,
I never played against Americans.
Oh,
really?
Yeah,
but honestly,
like,
bro,
if there was,
like,
a statistic of,
like,
all of Cod Pro,
every Cod Pro's hours
played,
compared to mine,
I reckon mine would be
significantly less.
Like,
so,
like,
let's say,
you're just,
I would probably have,
like,
15,
or,
actually play Halo,
and it's probably
not the best
explanation. Let's just say someone that's played cod their whole life. I don't know.
Let's just say, for example, I don't know. Let's just say Seth, whatever. Like, let's just say
Seth, like, didn't retire, still played. Like, he's, even though Steph's played, like,
let's say I started in whenever Seth started, he's played like at least 25 million more hours
than me, bro. I'm not even trying. Like, I've played in Australia, bro, we have, like,
cod is like our third job. What was the, what was, like, the tournaments for you to, like,
not take it that. I couldn't keep up with any of. No, but like, um, honestly, we just have
Cups and shit. We just played on the weekends.
And then how did you transfer into
Where Matters?
I had like one international land where I came
and played. There was like in Mdub 2019.
When was it?
It was the Minnesota.
Yeah, because like I just heard of say this.
Because like, nah, he's script.
Apparently he's screwed our team and I don't even fucking remember.
Oh yeah. I screamed Damon too.
I basically went. I basically what happened was I played in Australia
against a bunch of shit stains my whole life.
I played only called.
I feel like it's just so hard.
break out of that.
I played two hours, three hours a day, and then I played a tournament on the weekend.
We'd win every fucking time because everyone was dog shit.
And then I went to one international land, came fifth, was playing really good, scrimmed
against some pro team, slammed them.
And then, you know, I had an agent at the time, and he just got me into a team, basically.
Yeah, just basically the people.
What was your first good team, I guess?
The only team I've ever been on in Seattle besides this team.
Oh, really?
And like, yeah.
But you know what?
The reason that also picked me up is because my stats were, like, obviously super fluctuated
because I was playing against Australians.
So everyone, it was all Challenger players
And then my stats in every category
Were fucking insane
Like I looked like I was playing pubs
I had like a 1. Something crazy
Six or some shit
Overall
My kills per minute were like insane
So like wait
The land in Minnesota
So wait
You what was the challengers?
Yeah
Oh it was a challenge's land
And I came fifth
I forgot what that fucking
We lost
Yeah we just lost every S&D
Your team was trash
No my team was on bad
I played a fighter and shit
You know
Fighter stocks
I feel like you're
I don't think I'm
The Australians.
Yeah, fire of shocks and shit.
Yeah, I played a...
The old, like, mind freak guys, right?
Yeah, I played them.
I just feel like it's hard to fucking break out of that.
I'm the only one that's ever like...
Swipe for...
Well, I mean, there's been pros, but they only stayed for like a year and then...
Yeah, there's...
Australia was weird because, like, every two years an Australian team would pop up.
And they just like upset an English, like a...
Like a low-tier American team and just like, who the fuck is...
What was it?
T1 Daughters?
Like, who's a fourth a chance?
Who is that?
Who is that?
When?
When?
Ghost. Ghost. They just, it was an Australian team came in and placed top eight at chance.
They came forth. They lost a, they lost in eight, like, seven that.
They got fourth? Yeah, they came fourth. I didn't even know that. They lost a set for that to come pop three.
They nezloed everyone.
Nezloed everyone. Everyone. It was fucking, because back then Australia was Godlike Ns and D.
Games two, three and five. You win games two, three and five. So they lost every domination, won every blitz and S&D.
No, they were godlike Ns and crazy. Yeah. I remember, I remember the castors
freaking out about it.
Because Australia
like originated from
fives,
S&D.
Like we didn't start
with fours
like re-sporting
we started with five's
S&D.
I don't know if this is
pro mod.
Pro mod.
Yeah.
That's how like
that's what Australia
was originated from.
And then the
it's then it's
to fours
because everyone else
started playing it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But yeah.
Making it from Australia's crazy
because
fucking not many people
like even right now
but like
do you even know
anyone like
that's actually like
pretty good at
in Australia?
There's good but like
there was someone
better than him.
Nah,
bro.
Were you number one in Australia by far?
By far.
You didn't have like, you didn't have like a duo that was like on the come up?
No, there's no one near.
Did you even have a duo?
I mean, I'm like, this is my boy.
I'm a ride with you.
I had a, I had a duo like, like, I mean, I wouldn't even say it to do it.
Like, there's someone that you play with.
Somebody was too shit for you to even want to call him.
There's an Australian guy with his heart broken right now.
Honestly, in Mdub, in Mdub, there's a guy that was playing with called Crimza.
He was actually fucking pretty good.
I feel like he still plays.
He still does play, yeah.
His name's Crimza and Luca and like Shocks, fighter.
But, like, I mean, I would call it.
Like, I wouldn't say that my duo, but like,
because, like, I don't know.
I just, I was 10 times better than everyone in Australia.
Did you ever go to, like, land and shit?
Or, like, I mean, maybe I'm just too old.
Like, you ever go to your boy's house and, like,
set up your computers or whatever?
Before I went to.
Or am I just too old?
No, no, no.
I never did that?
No.
I only, I only been to one ever land before.
That is fucking crazy.
I only two lanes, sorry.
I went to one landing blockers four, I won it.
And I was like just 17 or something shit, just turned 18, sorry.
And then I went to the Minnesota land, which was like the, my, I only went to one local land and then went to an international land and then became pro.
So was, was it weird when you, when you came over and people started like shooting back?
No, because people weren't shooting back.
In Vanguard?
And they still are.
That's what I was most surprised about.
That's what I was most surprised about because I was like, wow, like, this is the league, like, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's, let's be.
league like let's let's lock in
I was playing bocage running
around like holy fuck these guys
are actually dog shit I didn't
I thought like when I thought when I came me like
because other Australians like shocks in there like yeah these got
are so weird like they never miss a
they're like they never miss the timing
like the way they talked about you guys
like when I was coming when I was about a play I was like
holy fuck yeah I'm better get shit on
some shit because like the way they were talking was like
they don't miss the timing
there's no gaps they didn't miss a shot
they're all fucking they're all crap
not a good way to that's a good mindset to have your mindset is a good mindset to have coming
into this shit yeah no i was definitely like wait a second these motherfuckers are still trash yeah but um
yeah crazy transition yeah yeah definitely excited for blog off six show oh yeah that's gonna show
what do you think about it yeah what do you guys think about it because obviously we're like
competing in it so for us it's more like competitive fun yeah it doesn't care every year it's the same
shit this one is different though this one is does look different i i think i've heard that
That exact
I've heard that
exactly
for literally
10 years
street.
This does
look different
in Black
Ops
has always been
my favorite
call of duties
so I've
hope.
It'll be fun.
As long as
they come out,
they do it
right in the beginning,
the rank play
comes out
and it'll be good.
I've always
preferred Infinity
Ward games.
Yeah,
you give me
so much
Infinity
like vibes.
Like IW?
Is that this?
What's the last
a ward or two?
That's like
Modo Moro MoMA
2,
Motor 4,
Moe,
fucking Monorfer 19
The one that
It's funny because like I've always liked
Those more
Yeah
Because black up
Blackup series is like more cartoony
Not in like a bad way
But like they're more like
Trowly
I know you're talking about
Yeah yeah yeah
And I feel like the connect
The hit rag is just better on IW games
I feel like that's just how I like an infinite
Infinity Ward games
But that being said
The last Infinity Ward game was my least favorite cod
Ever released
Which one? What one of them?
last year's model for two oh that game that game was dog shit
was a piece of trash i actually didn't he knows that was i w macaline yeah that was
infinity war so tST give up on this one uh there's well gb's died oh yeah so gb's died
no one's playing xps i don't care man you ain't got it worse than a though
i got on twitch on hailer the other day i saw like 2303
33 people watching Halo Infinite.
I was like...
Wow.
That's insane.
They were waiting for their savior, man.
They have like 1.3 million followers on Halo,
but like 200 people watching.
I'll be honest, bro.
Like, I've never played Halo,
and like everyone told me there was like glory days of Halo,
but when I've fucking loaded onto that game,
that game feels like shit.
Yeah, it does feel like shit.
You're playing on 4.4 cents.
Fucking picking guns off the floor.
That game is fucking awful.
Shotsie, fucking...
Shotsie flying in the...
guns off the floor.
This guy fucking trick shot at me.
I didn't even know the fuck happened.
This game, that'll be out of the end.
That is, that is...
That's not...
Halo 2, Halo 3, Nick, you could fucking...
That's what I'm saying.
I don't know the glory days.
Like, I only played...
I've never played Halo and I just jumped on this one.
Play a game like Call of Duty and how smooth it feels.
How me that shit was an addictive.
Bro, even Seth does the shit.
Like, that shit was so addictive.
Oh, without Halo, like,
without Halo, console, e-sports doesn't exist.
You know it used to be at MLG event.
It used to be Halo.
Then there'd be Gears of War and Call of Duty on the side.
So like Scump and N-Chad are just watching the main stage.
Like MLG was made off of HALO.
That's crazy.
Like the guys who ran MLG.
I don't know how that even happened.
How do they drop off like that crazy?
You wait.
I mean, it started with Halo 4 just suck.
So Bungie,
Bungie used to make Halo games and then they just pulled up.
They gave it to 3-4-3.
Then Bungy started making Destiny and they gave HAL.
You think it's Scump in Nachau was in Halo and they're fucking.
Godlike like how they were and how the their personalities do you think it would have blown up as much as God did or no
It needed somebody because well yeah. We didn't have shit because that because after like Walshi and everybody like stop
Stop being like the faces like there wasn't that like second wave. There was like a gap and then there was ninja after that
Dude, dude, dude, imagine his scum went to Halo and didn't like YouTube shit. I think I think it would have been way bigger and HALO and Halo the bigger names really because that was HALA 4
No, no, no, I'm saying from Halo 2
Oh, he started in Halo 4?
No, like, the years that
The year that Seth and Nate blew up
Was the Halo 4 year.
Where? Black Ux 2.
How old was Seth when the Halo 2 came out?
Like, a child?
Oh, what the fuck?
Yeah, he was like, 10?
I mean, he still could have,
Seth's what, like 29?
20, yeah, 28, I think.
So he, I mean, he could have played Halo 3.
Like, he's as old as, like, snake bite.
Yeah, yeah.
So he still could have.
Would a Seth and Nate shot if they were in Halo if they made I just don't know if Halo has had like content like that
Cod just like in Cod just the pub stomping and sniping
Yeah actually that was just the greatest content ever and Halo never really had that besides a montage which would take six months to make
Yeah, halo montage was just like shit though and all and all just go 89 and I post it on to YouTube and just get it 100 million
I actually watched like is like I watched one of those videos just so funny because like like
Like, I think it would, didn't he edit himself?
Edit.
I'm almost, he would hit record and he would hit stop record and upload it.
No, no fucking intro or anything.
Nah, he was talking about something, dude.
He was like, yeah, man, like, I've been looking at your comments.
I've seen, like, you know, trying to get things better.
It's actually just crazy looking back at that shit, like to know.
It's crazy looking back.
This is how crazy Call of Duty is.
You look back at 2000, I don't know when it came out,
2008 when Hex's montage came out.
That shit has like $6 million.
views. That's crazy. That's crazy. That's crazy. No offense, but the fact that that has six million
views. That one's different because, but that's just like call of duty content in general. And call
of duty is a game everyone. Like when I grew up, my friends played call duty and everyone sort
dabbled into Halo 2803, but call duty is just the game. Well, you know how hex got that
six million, right? He bought the game. He bought the game. He bought the game.
early from like a mom and pop shop
they had already opened the servers
and so he recorded for two days
and just and
send it to an editor
got it back and released that montage
before the game came out
what who's he playing against?
What? Who's he playing against? They had already
opened the servers so like
so anyone that other
other freaks that figured out how to get it also
also got the game early so hex like people
were watching hex's montage
because it was the first time sniping was like
good again since like cod four
I mean kind of
and so people really wanted to know what the sniping
was like and sniping was like blowing
up so Hex's montage just fucking
I mean he has the only
the game ain't even come out yet
the motherfuckers drop in the small
he's a small man that's been
He's a mindset since the beginning
he's always a step ahead making something I don't know but like
what's crazier than that in my opinion is
Seth in Black Cops 2
was posting like twice a day
like a live commentary so he would
play and talk. Did you get money
back then? Yes.
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They probably, you probably
got more. I bet you you got more.
Oh, did that. Because they weren't thinking like all these people are going to like
realize how much money they can make. It was just like, yeah, here's some
I bet you. In 208, now they got to fucking regulate it to make sure
they get some of it. Yeah, yeah. Or they get most of it. So like,
Seth was uploading raw commentaries and they were getting like 300,000 views
the video like 300k for for just playing talking outro twice a day 300k boom and if you go back and
if you go back and look at set's views from that year it is and nades as well it is great it is
crazy everyone was watching more views made really they got big time it's hard to need i mean
nade was good he fucking won it was like seven events i i saw step like and nade of the
same time when they're doing the prestige
master race.
Really?
That's when I, that's when I was.
Wait, they were both
going against C-TOPH.
No, because my story is doing, no,
no, no, master race in league play.
Yeah, they would play with each other.
Road to Mastard.
Yeah, yeah.
And Nate was getting shit on one time,
dude, I remember all those fucking rude.
It was, it was,
I mean,
I'll always remember that year.
It's crazy to think.
That year blew.
That's what got me into Codden.
Blue up, yeah.
I watched them both.
It's crazy to think Nate was getting more views than Seth.
I thought it was the way around.
Well, it makes sense.
just because like, I mean, Seth was competing as well, right?
Or no.
So was Matt.
They were both competing.
They were on the same team.
It's hard to believe Nade was the face over Seth.
But then I've seen Nade's return to a stream.
And I saw him get up to like 15,000 subs.
Like it's like first month.
And I was like, damn.
I was like, but it's probably going to like slow down.
Like, you know, everyone's type Nades.
But it does not slow down.
And every time I tune into Nade stream, like that motherfucker knows how to entertain.
He's been on a show.
And he does it for eight.
He has been on a run, man.
An hour he is grinding.
He does it right.
Professional yapper.
Yeah, he yapsed.
Like, I didn't know Nate back in the day.
And I he's good at that shit, bro.
So it's, like, hard for me to believe, like, damn, he was, he was bigger than Seth.
But, like, now it's, like, you can kind of, it's, like, he's, this motherfucker
still has it.
My schedule back then, because I was, like, a fan back then, my schedule was, like, watch
Nate's video, then watch Seth's video.
Same.
And then, like, go about my day.
Like, that was what I did.
I'd wake up before school, watch both their videos.
If I didn't have to, if I woke up a bit later, I'd come like to school, make sure I finish the videos.
Get to school, get home, grind to it more.
Yeah.
Mine the fuck out of that.
Blackups too.
Like, I joined Optic.
I don't think I watched any vid.
I should, I only remember starting watching them in AW.
That's when, like, I started watching them.
Really?
Yeah, I can't remember, like, what the fuck I even watch?
I'm sure I watched their streams and all, like, the tournaments and stuff.
No, the juice back then was crazy.
That's why you see people that used to be on Optic, like, I mean, like, like, like, like,
fucking J-CAP proofie
Killa they all have like
400,000 followers on Twitter
And it's just like
When you joined back then
It was like 80,000 followers like that
In a day
Like that
I caught like the tail end of it
Like when I
When I joined in 2015
Which was like kind of like
Getting towards the tail end of like
When that could happen
I still got like 10K followers in one day
Yeah
When I joined Optic
I made an Instagram
And within like a year
year probably got to like 85 90k.
Now I'm at like 95k.
Oh yeah.
Like it's like
It slows down so much.
Yeah.
But like I joined and like got that.
I missed the where I got a little Twitter juice.
But like I missed the whole like 2013.
Like Enbo streaming on MLG TV days and the the J-Caps and the.
And also I.
wasn't in the call of duty community so that didn't really help but like fuck i wish i was man
i wish i was that is crazy uh where we at matt and it was dead all the time oh he's he's
fucking with the cam the cams fucked up um we talk about let's end it on the druskey's
i'm down unless you're gonna say let's talk about the youtube thing and then call it the youtube
paul bradley martin or wait no no no you don't want to talk about what's above the
YouTube thing?
It just says
Optic Lose to Rocker.
Now wait, you guys didn't
see like the slap? Like Bradley
Martin did the streamer? Yeah, yeah.
We talked about it yesterday.
We can watch it again.
We can watch it again. What are y' all thoughts
on this? I feel like I know Pred's thoughts.
On what? Did AG? We'll play the
video. The slap? Yeah.
Of Renato taking off.
What your actual
Bradley Martin said?
The thing is, I don't know how, like,
what to, like, think about it, to be honest.
I really don't.
I think it's just the fact that he's standing back, like, not...
Wow!
Just, like, not giving it back, like...
Nah, he's being, he's trying to piss him off, bro.
And, like, you know he's balding.
Like, you don't take off a grown man's hat.
Nah, yeah.
Honestly, dude, I...
I saw Bose send that to Zinney.
You know what's so funny, bro?
Take off my hat
This is what I happen
My cousin
Like used to wear a hat all the time as well
And like whenever I take his hat troll
He gets so fucking angry
Yeah
Because they just don't like
Obviously like they don't like their hair
Or some shit so
But Renato he's gonna go
He got slow lap
What's your opinion on that
Do you think it's justified?
The slap
Honestly
I don't know
It's tough because like
He's a kid bro as well
You know
Look at literally he is
It's different
It's different with the two grown men.
If a grown man did that to him,
someone his size did that to him, then it's just...
I mean, I think that's a perfect little, like...
Yeah.
It wasn't like he punched him.
No, he didn't like do some crazy.
It was like a little fucking give it back.
It was definitely like a, hey, don't do this again.
Not only to me, but to anyone.
The only thing for me is just the size difference
because this guy's a monster.
But it's like, if you are that size,
like, people are getting away with shit of just, like,
being that side.
Dude, come on, man.
Like, no, then they, they can.
shouldn't be fucking like we need more injuries we need more we need more
physicality like these these kick you're like whatever they want with no like
consequences he can't be fucking around like that because you probably will get
slaps I mean I would if I was him I would have done the same shit I would slap the
fuck out of him too if I got if I had fucking like receding hairline and fucking
boating or whatever and you're also fucking like yeah and you're on the gear
fucking pissed off like two hundred and fifty pounds of pure muscle yeah
The fuck. Stop.
That's fucking hilarious, dude, dude, because he was not expecting it.
Like, some of that shit, I feel like people always think shit like that staged.
Like, Dad did not look staged.
That was not staged.
You could tell that.
You could tell that, like, he was like, what the fuck?
Like, this is not a part of the script.
I thought he'd get mad and, like, people would think it's funny.
But, like, I wasn't expected.
But what does his friend do?
If you all the guy was like, see, like, what the fuck do you even do?
Well, they were like, I saw a stream after that where the Ronado had his whole.
bandaged up.
And he was like talking to that Casey dude.
It's like, you just watch your best friend get the shit slapped out of him.
You didn't do nothing.
And they were just like they are fucking funny.
I'll give it to him.
Like that lazy guy in the memory of his boy like, holy fuck.
Wait, is that the same guy?
Is that the same guy that fought Logan Paul?
Same guy?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Wait, there's no video.
It was just like, uh...
Yeah, it's just they...
They had a secret fight.
They had a secret fight.
They had a secret fight.
Wait, what is that like, what do you even happen?
about, like, they have beef or something?
I don't know.
Apparently, apparently they did it.
Settled there. I mean,
Logan Paul's got a feud.
What's that?
With, like a beef
with someone every six
months, he's got someone.
Logan Paul's biggest fuck, too.
He was standing beside Bradley.
Literally, they're both.
When you're the WWE, bro,
when you're the WUWRFucking big,
dude.
They're both fucking.
It's so weird seeing
because if you see, like,
their vines and then where they are now,
you're like,
Mm.
Aluminati?
Who did you sacrifice?
Like, they're fucking.
huge. They did some.
Because he's biggest shit.
Are they all? That's you fucking insane.
All right. Well, I think that's going to do it for the optic podcast.
Thanks for listening to us. Have a yap session for an hour.
Shouts. Oh yeah. We didn't talk about Kai Druski, Kevin, but we...
Got out to Kaidman. I know you guys all saw it. It got 700,000 of years.
We'll see you in the next one. Peace, everybody.
