I could do it too So you're not interested in wow at all No I don't I think so, no. Remember when we got spawn killed by that one guy? Yeah.

Oh my god. Dude, we got spawn killed by someone one time. Me, him and someone else were like just getting spawn killed for like an hour, two hours. We were like, dude, we can kill him. We just like, all right, listen, you do this, I'll do this. We're like trying to like raid him. And then he's just one-shotting us every time. And we can just see in our desk screen, he's just like still around.

He's just standing there and like laughing and shot it. We just got off. Didn't give back on for like a month? Bro, he went home and did it. How long do you think he camped your body? your bodies. No, no.

Bro, he went home and did a podcast because obviously he's got a podcast and talked about these two dudes that just kept on trying

to attack him. That is a weird shit I would do. For two hours. Three. Like a straight psychopath just like just not even streaming

and like making it entertaining like just killing him for his own and satisfaction. Just alone in my room just fucking spawn killing these

poor two souls that are like 30 levels below. He was feeling so empowered. He was like idiots. Idiots. Fight me again. All right. Well, we have a couple of topics here, obviously, some very obvious ones.

One of them has quotation marks that say, wait, why are you guys using my sticker paper to print? I do arts on this. Really? Matt. God, they printed in the back. Where to go, Matt. Damn, this is a nice piece of paper that went to waste. Yeah, well, I can still draw on the back is fine.

And listen, anyway, neither here nor there. What I was going to say is that they have your scump, quotation marks, getting his mojo back. He plays good one series and suddenly he's back. What the fuck? It was against Dallas, though. Yeah, if you were going to step it up, now's the time. Demon mode enabled.

Yes. I'm fucking back. Anyway, welcome for another episode, episode number 19, as we said, a little bit of Go sponsor by RayCon. I'll tell you a little bit more about Raycon, the head. Are those Ray J's headphones? Yeah, yeah, Raycon. I was about to say.

It's Ray J and other athletes have backed it. Is it Ray J and Acon? No, I don't think so. You put the blame on me. That's Ray J to Acon if their business fails. The fuck. You listen to Ray J? What does your brain just go?

Wait, who was Ray Jays' sister? I literally just took an Acon song and Ray J's sister. I got it. Yo, yo, yo, you know,

who was Ray J. sister that was really famous? Ray J. banged kin. Yeah, no, but he was famous because he was someone's brother.

Really? Yeah, he was someone's brother, right? I don't know. No, it's not much of Missy Elliott. What?

I just watched, I just watched the rap thing and you, you thought Method Man was fucking Ice Cube? Did that picture look like that? No, I will say this.

Bro, I will say this. When I saw it, at a glance, I agreed with you. And I've obviously know who Ice Cube is. It looked like Ice Cube.

Yeah. Like for that for, I mean, we answered like immediately. I was like, that's Ice Cube. Yeah, like a younger one, I could totally see it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can't believe, I can't believe they put some battle rapper in there that I didn't know about. Loaded Lux? Yeah.

Is that why I won? Yeah. The only reason. Wait, did you know? Somebody didn't know who Run DMC was. That was Hitch. Like, no, I think it was you because somebody's like, that's run DMC. You're like, which one?

Like all three of them are Ron DMC, Run DMC, Reverer Run. Oh, yeah, I'm gonna be me, actually. Yeah, yeah. Anyway, neither. I was gonna say neither here or there. I'm trying to stop saying neither here or there. So I'm not gonna say that a lot. I do.

I don't know why. I think it's like one of those ums, but I've replaced um with neither. I hate, I hate watching my podcast back because I'll like go in depth explaining something to hitch and I'll be like and I always say like and like, it's like so, like, it's so annoying. Yeah. What is that? That, Alexa, stop.

God damn it All right Question from the audience Do you think Competitive Call of Duty Would benefit from two year long games A longer season More time with consistent rules

And weapon balances And more of a storyline Also I think that developers Hopefully would release With more As they have more time to make it I'll say this No

I don't think it would do better Because every call of duty That comes out Everyone just hates And then A new call duty will come out and everyone will be so excited. They hate it after like the first two months.

So, yeah, that's why just a new call of duty every year just kind of keeps the train going. And imagine we get a garb game and we have to play it for two years? Bro, think about call of call. That'd be fucking black. Think about Call of Duty 2, Call of 3, Call 3, Call 3 4 and stop there. Okay? World of War. It wasn't until we as people had an opinion because we had an audience that we can influence or have the same sort of mentality

towards something that call of duty started becoming shit if you didn't have an option to complain if you didn't have anything to compare it to and that was the game you played would you have the same attitude towards it right now no because you wouldn't know any better yeah I would no you wouldn't know any better

uh play other games no but you can't compare it to other call of duties okay take away all of the early call of duties that everyone thinks are good as fuck and say like call of duty just started coming out in 2015 or something Uh-huh.

Would people even, like, give a fuck about call duty? No. No. It's because it changed. Yeah. It wouldn't. I mean, I think that if, if Warzone, not Blackout, I think that if Warzone dropped as like the,

and there's no Call of Duty in this scenario, there's only Fortnite, Halo, all this stuff. And the only call duty that we've ever known was Warzone, it would be just as big, if not bigger. Just massive. Massive. massive. It's such a good game. It's a good game. Period. Wars One is a good game. You take anti-cheat out of the way. I don't think it'd be as big if Call of Duty didn't already have a big base.

You can say the same thing on Fortnite. Well, Fortnite, they didn't have any other iterations before them. Right. Just Fortnite. Right. And you said that if Call of Duty didn't have the iterations, that it wouldn't be good. I think it would be good. I don't think it would be as big. I agree. I disagree. Formal? Highbreaker? What's up, man? You're kind of, you're kind of, you. You need a game fuel? You look over.

He's still tired. I'm so tired. Drink some water. I did. Didn't help. Drink more. Warzone is really boring to me, to be honest. Yeah, well.

That's a cat. No, I'll watch it. I'm pretty bored. They need a new map. They need to change the scenery because I'm sick of seeing the same building. Is it still the exact same? Yeah, it's the same. Like nothing new.

I mean, I think there's like zombies at hospital. There's a couple new. It rotates. It goes from, you can find zombies in. downtown hospital scrap yard. But I swear I've been seeing this like I'll see random teasers

of Verdant's getting blown up for a year now. Yeah, it's never gotten blown up. And it's just like, what was the point of that? Blow that shit up. You know?

I'm pretty sure that shit should have been blown up by now. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. That's my own thing. Anyway,

so do you think it would benefit from two year long cycles? Probably not. Well, probably. Well, it depends how the game is. It depends how good the game is. If the game sucks and we get stuck with it

for an extra year. year, so whack. Ready for this? Are you ready for this? Watch this. What is your favorite call of duty of all time? Competitively, call duty. Black Ops 3?

Black Ups 3? MW2 or MW3? Okay. If you had a choice today, snap your fingers and only play competitively those games with different maps, different iterations of the map, same weapon, same movement, all that, would you play that game forever the way that Counterstrike does? No. No?

No? No. No? the way that we see it now. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Wow. Wow.

I think it's, like, cool when a game drops and you want to, like, grind it and get good and, like, figure stuff out before other people. And it's just like a new thing. Well, it's also cool because, like, every year we have a refresh. So, like, if you get smoked one year, you're like, all right, new year, new game. Bro. You just get smoked and you just caught the cycle? I don't know.

I've been playing Hill 5 for her. Since, like, what, it come out, 2015 or something? They've been playing Hale 5 for five years. Like you got to be bored Like that's just boring as fuck I'll only say that because like If there was a massive If there was enough competition

In Call of Duty modern warfare remastered I would still play S&D Every night on that game That would be my game that I play forever I will never get bored of it I'll never get bored of playing crash I will never get bored of playing

Backlots, Strike, vacant I would play that shit every single day And never get sick of it And I'll use the same weapon that'd be and I wouldn't but people have been doing it with Counter Strike

he's also not a profession the counterstrike's different don't fucking he plays for fun Conner strikes I feel like CS is the only game to ever do that right be around

Legal Legends but isn't it the same League of Legends it's because every game's so different like Conn but League of Legends change like the way you jungle is different the way you

they kind of like dumb they kind of like dumb the game down every game in league is different in the last pretty much. Like, you know what I'm saying? It's so hard to get like the same exact game. Call of Duty, I feel like you can play a series.

You feel like CS? Has CS changed at all? Yeah. No, bro. How do you need to tell me? I've played so many times. See, I can't have this discussion with that. Like, if you're playing like,

like, we're true hardpointed AW, it was probably like 10 times where it all felt the same. We just dominated. And it was just like, oh, yeah, that was like the same exact feeling as like the last time we played it. Yeah. Yeah, that's how like league is like, I mean, like they'll dominate,

but they'll do it in different ways. Or like they'll do it in like Combs and Yeah they just like you know what I'm saying They're doing different builds Like they are Like they come out with a rocket launch arm retreat And then we're still winning

Then it's like oh that was so different But it really wasn't Or if you fly up into the air And throw down five Orbs of light Hurt the other person That's league That'd fuck them up

Oh it's league Call of Duty you can't do that You can do the You can do the microwave thing Where you like turn yourself Into a microwave and like shockwave Remember when you put those things down And they microwave you?

Yeah Yeah Yeah, good times. I don't know. I'm with you, though. Black Hop 3 was better than Black Ops 2. What? Oh, I didn't play Lock Up 2.

I'll tell you what. Matt was supposed to put something together for me to do a reaction so in return, like, in exchange. Dr. Dispect asked me personally, we're boys to do the ranking system for Call of Duty. Do I even have to say it? Weird flex. Can we get a weird flexometer for Scum, please? This won't be off the charts. This one's up to.

I was joking, man. God, when did you lose your sense of humor? Two years ago. Anyway, no, but for real. I do think, I do think that it would benefit. I don't know. I personally think they would benefit. I broke your clip.

Oh, my God. Why? I don't know. I was just, I was fun. Can you make sure that you order a new one and charge it to him? What does this even do? It's like 87 cents. Yeah.

I was having fun, like putting it back on and taking it off. I mean, something, Doc, at the time. No, you're good. All right. So we're going to get on to the topics. Yes. Seth, you got your mojo back? I don't know what that means.

I don't think that you ever lost it. You know what Johnson Powers? No. You don't know what Mojo is? It's like a little purple jelly. Oh, Basil. I've seen how Estella got her mojo back. Who?

Oh, is that Groove. What is what you're saying? Groot? Groot. I am grew. Emperor's new groove? No, Groove. How Estella got her groove back.

It's about this like lady that goes to Jamaica, finds a super hot dude, younger. And she got her groove back. Hold on. What? That's what she called it. All right. I called a dude super hot. Seth.

Seth, so what's up? What happened? Did you get your mojo back? For the record, I personally didn't write this. I know you have never lost it. Well, I was just in a little bit of a slump. And mentally, you know, I was getting pissed to myself. And I kept saying it all I needs one good series to break out of it.

I had a great series. Now I'm back. But you had a good series last year, last year? Last year. Last year. You went 0 and 6. You were going off. No, I wasn't.

Weren't you? We went 0 and 6. None of us were going off. We were getting fucking dog. I thought you were carrying a little bit. Huh? I thought you were carrying a little bit. Against who was our second match?

Against Florida, I played all right. Minnesota, I did not play good. And then I didn't play good against Seattle either, even though he won that. Well, rose-colored glasses when a scumpy plays for me, I guess. I don't know. I mean, I have, like, good maps. Do you think it's because you haven't gotten a haircut in, like, three months? Huh?

Huh? My car is a flat. I can't go. You just got a flat yesterday. You haven't got a haircut for like years. I got a flat like four days ago for the record. It's not me. I have podcast etiquette. Yeah.

So you get a party long? I mean, yeah. What am I supposed to fucking? All right. Anyway, what do you think it was? What do you think his problem is? No confidence? No confidence?

He's like confidence. I had to tell him like he's nasty. Yeah. How they get him his confidence? Is that what you need? Do you need others to tell you you're nasty? No. You don't know.

I knew that I was nasty, but I'd go into match. is questioning if I was nasty. So, because in scrimms, I'd piece people up on the reg. Peace. But I'd go into the match like, oh, shit. Now I can't get pissed. Yeah. Hopefully I fucking shoot back.

You mentioned, you mentioned something about giving Matt a good morning sort of inspirational talk? I gave him something. You didn't give me shit. Dude, all right, you can't say that. I bought the sushi and then I drove me here. That's it. I get likes off on Twitter off this stuff.

I know you did. I got an explosion. So you have to let it be, let them think, yeah. Shit, good looks. That shit, good luck. Now, we did have a little talk, though. Because I, I feel like Matt's, I feel like Matt wasn't being the player that I used to know,

or that I feel he should be. He's five for five. I can dive into that more if you want, but I feel like his mentality, like, switch to where, he felt like he had to like do it all and like conduct i'm like mad you just got to like dominate bring formal back you know no wait but he was no he why am i getting these looks like i can't i just look up and see like no do you see me i was supportive i was supportive look at him right now they're waving their heads roger's like yeah roger's waiting hasn't

slept to get here just waiting for his door i don't know i thought it's i thought it was pretty One of the things that I liked about this last Last match that we had Against Empire is that once we were up You told everybody to breathe Like yo everybody, breathe calm down Don't give them anything for me Do you find yourself having to tell them to breathe

Or this guy's guys You just look over it's like It's a team All the time and it never gets highlighted I'm sick of shit Team effort So don't call me a hero It's a team effort

I just do my job Matt says calm down Praise Matt Where's the fucking love. You just dominate. They just put Matt saying that. What do? What? What? You didn't do anything. Oh, shit. I mean, you did. Well, I saw, listen, for the record, I saw what you did. You don't need to explain yourself.

I saw magic happening in that in that match. I could, I've never seen somebody shoot that straight before. I'm going to be on. Oh, yeah, actors was off on TV the whole time. He knows what was going down. Bro, it was. I was not missing. Bro, it was, it was wild to see what I saw. Anyway, uh, Slasher got benched. They brought up, What? What are you? Wait, you were thinking No, you were thinking of something else.

What happened? It's fucking crazy shit. Crazy shit that I've been last night. Did you know that Slashar got benched? Yes. What I didn't like was how they How L.A. tweeted about it. Nope.

They tweeted like... L.A.G or L.A. thieves? Uh-huh. They tweeted like, we're going to let... We're going to give Slasher a break. Time off. some time. We're going to give Slash for some time off. What the fuck does that mean? You're going to give him some time off. Yeah. Oh, thank you. You deserve a break. Austin. We're going to bench. Yeah, like what? Just say you fucking benched him because he's not performing or. Yeah. Does he think they did that more from a PR standpoint and who? I guess. They're just trying to not be the bad guys. It just leaves it up to speculation at that point. Like people don't know if it was his decision. The team's decision. It was definitely. It was definitely a team's decision. Yeah. Like they left it like open ended. Like, like,

people don't know, like, is he okay mentally? Like, they left it like... Behind his back, his teammates are talking shit. They left, like, little trails of breadcrumbs. Yeah. Like, Kenny's tweet or, like, Cap's tweet. Like, they were trying to, like, defend, like... The decision?

Yeah. And just being, like, it was best for the team. And, like, I was watching Kenny stream last night with Brandon. And, like, the way that Kenny was talking about it, he got benched. Like, he's benched. It was a big decision, though. Well, what do you think... It seems like...

It seems like they just like they just want better vibes. That's what I got from it. Better vibes. Yeah, it seems like... Like, I know Austin, and the way that he could run a team, I could tell could be, like, kind of, like, you know, stern and, like, probably not very fun to be around, especially if you're losing. So, I think Kenny just, like, was saying, like, do you know, like, T. Just the same way. Like, T.J. I want to go on every day and let's be, like, I don't fucking care.

You know, like, and I don't really know Venom 2.L. Lord draws it. But, I mean, I can assume that it's probably, like, kind of frustrating. Like, I want to, finally a pro and, like, you know, you're bitching. Yeah. You don't, do you think they're searching for, like, the, like, young talent and just, like, hopefully we pull something out of our ass and get some young god yeah that's literally their team right now like Kenny venom draws in tj that's like not what you would expect their team to be you know now they bench two players that are like you know supposed to be pretty good

donning them but yeah so like i don't know i feel like that shouldn't be allowed which part i don't think it should be allowed during a stage i think it should be they have to play with that team the rest of the stage unless it's like a that's actually not a bad idea unless it's like obviously an emergency or a health thing you know it's like family why you should be able to make swaps like that You shouldn't be able to switch someone in mid-major. They're about to go into the major with a different team than they played the whole stage with. Is that a team decision or is that a coach decision?

It's like the NBA going into the playoffs and then some team picks up Kevin Durant. Like in the middle of the playoffs. They're like, that's like not fair. Which don't matter. That actually is a really good point, sir. That's a good point. Yeah. And then they just be like, oh, we're playing the major with a different team.

They could have a completely new roster with the way it's out of right now. Yeah. They can have four brand new players. Like, what? That doesn't make any sense. Oh, man. You should have to stick with your team for at least the stage. It's only a month long.

Like, you can do that. You can pull through. It's five league matches and then potentially, you know, like one tournament match if you get knocked out and losers. They had to do something. I mean, yeah. But how it's always been, there's roster change periods. Do it. Yeah, there's always been roster.

Like Minnesota, they just did it mid-stage. They were 0-and-2 and now they got first seed. Like, think about, like, the last time I can remember off the top of my head is like Fort Worth and Blackups 4, like a lot of teams were just sticking through that event because the roster change was happening a Monday after that. So there was a lot of teams that didn't like each other and they were picking up, you know, new players after that. But

they were stuck with that player for that one. I was stuck with Ricky for an event. Like, because we just couldn't make a change. Don't say you were stuck with Rick. I was stuck with Rick. He did not want to play. Like, and he was just like, he made it clear. He didn't want to play. And I was like, right, you got to play. We have no one else. Like, it's just like That's crazy. I don't know.

I don't know the inner workings. I don't know what it was, but I do know that bad sort of vibes do bring down the morale. I mean, we experienced it a bunch of times throughout our, throughout all of our careers. Me spectating from an outsider's perspective was like, oh, it's like such a drag. I'm like, man, these two dudes aren't getting along. Now we can't go get dinner and shit because they don't want to go.

Now the team separated. Now you're sort of forced to be like, yo, why is he hanging out? Everyone's talking shit behind each other's back. Yeah. Not me. I'll say it to your fucking face. You'll meet.

See me. Yeah, you will. Anyway, but I don't know. I guess to each their own. What do you think happens now to him, though? Do you think he gets traded? It depends on how they do. It depends on the do good or bad.

I'm assuming the paperwork is probably pretty stressful. If, like, say, they are much better and they don't want to keep, like, also on the bench, you know, because that'd be, like, kind of garbage for him. Like, he's just having this on the bench all year until they do bad and they have to pick him up again. I mean, if you're getting paid. I mean, yeah, but, like, he's a competitor, though.

He wants to play. I'm curious to see because you would never think that, and I was almost attributing it to, to, Cap being the coach and thinking I'm like man people respect Cap so if he says you're benched what are you going to say you can't say you don't know what it's like because he's competed for so long right

so you almost have this like almost turning of the tide where the coach is actually that that coach particular has like a lot of say in the way that that teams managed and ran so it's actually I forgot about Cap I'm super surprised that Allison's bench with Cap being the coach why because Cap the way that Cap looks in Austin

at least the way I used to feel like you used to look at him like I feel like he was like the end all be all player, you know? And he was just like, Austin knows what the fuck he's talking about. Yeah. Like, and like, he was listening to him for years, you know?

Yeah, yeah. It must have taken a lot for Cap to realize, like, maybe we've got to change something. Maybe it's Austin, you know? Yeah. That's crazy to me. That is. All right, let's switch some gears here.

We dropped the process video for your stuff. How did you think? How did, what the fuck? What was that? Yeah. I can't sniffle? You're ready to get rid of cry or something. Oh, it's just like a bugger in my nose.

Yeah. Yeah, it came out really good. Roger did it justice. Yeah, it could have been like... Could have been a little better, but he did pretty well. Yeah, yeah, it could have been like three hours long, in my opinion. It should have been three hours long. I wish we would have got...

You just hear his fucking feet. I wish there would have been more footage of like different moments of last year. But I mean, obviously you got like no one... We weren't like knowing this was going to have. happen or like preparing roger's not like i'm not like ignoring you guys and then roger shows up at my apartment with a camera or something is like no like well in like nine months we might do you're sitting there ignoring people and roger's sitting there recording you ignoring our texts yeah like but no he did he did really well with what he had to work with and sort of like

telling the story job roger yeah i personally had my own thoughts i want i wanted an extended cut a schnider cut. You know what I mean? Like just a four hour long. Every like my interview was like I talked a lot about us. I talked about you and the team. I talked about we talked a lot about like your situation. You did your interview here. Yeah. Like a lot. Remember I kick you out. You like we're walking in. I'm a yo, get out. I'm talking about you. I know that H talked a lot about it. So there's like a lot of stuff that we there's a lot of stuff that we didn't use because even in my apartment I was specifically like talking about

my relationship and stuff during that time like I we were talking about for like 10 minutes and I was explaining different stuff and I was explaining like you know there was nothing

she could have done yeah like I was just a piece of shit and like no one was going to save me besides myself and like I said on that in the interview Roger didn't use any of that he just took the one clip

of me saying that like I didn't have any good memories at the apartment And there was just no good experience. So I caught a little backlash. Did you? She hit you up? I would have too.

But but like, you know, understandably seeing the process video, it's like that's all you see. So it's like people, apparently people were like reaching or like DMing her and like talking shit. No, they weren't. Don't. Don't fuck. Wait, like mutuals or like? No, fans probably. Like fans just like DMing her.

Because of you. Don't. If you're one of those. gosh, you are, I can't even begin to tell you. I don't even want to look at you in the eyes. I don't want to look at you. I'm ashamed of you guys. A bunch of white knight is trying to roll. I don't know if that's a white knight.

No, white night is just a person's angry with their life. Just talking shit to people. Yeah. None of their business is talking shit to people. Just calling her like a shitty girlfriend and stuff because I guess like they look at that like, oh, I was living with her. So like, that's why I was. Yeah.

So that's why I was like as fucked up as I was or like unhappy. Yeah, if you're one of those people, don't ever do that again. That's not the case. If you are one of those people, don't do that. Don't do that again. One, you should care, thank you. But it's not up to you to defend or, I don't know, it's not up to you. Just take this for what it is.

No one's asking you to go and defend anyone. You should not do that. I cannot tell you how disappointed I am in anybody who did that. Because she hit me up and she was really upset with like, I don't know what people were saying to her, but she was just upset with the fact that, like, she really was there for me. Yeah.

Like, during the lowest of the low, uh, she was there for me during my first rehab and fucking, she kept quiet. She, we broke up. She didn't say anything. When you all fucking broke into my apartment,

she, like, held it down as much as she could. Literally like, so like me and both, me and both show up. And I'm like, where is he? Right?

where is he and she's like poor her she's just like and I'm like who the fuck I'm like you fucking didn't tell me anything this dude he's like well I checked

I'm like god damn I fucking hung up on him I just like he's alive out of my day I was so mad but yeah anyway but yeah she held it she was holding it down

and she just like she was super upset with like how much she did hold it down and how like loyal she was and then to like be getting backlash as if she did something wrong. Yeah, she was feeding you. She was like, pass.

But yeah. So she doesn't deserve any of that. Yeah, don't do that shit. It's ridiculous. Yeah. Yeah, that's whack. And I get it. Wack behavior.

No, no, I look, I get it, but it shouldn't be this way. Like, we choose to be public personalities and we're inviting you into our lives. Just blame Roger for how he edited the video.

Now I'm saying, Ray J is famous because he made a tape with Kim Kardashian. No, he was Ray J before that. Yeah, he had some good songs. He was. He was on a... I guess Kim is... Yeah, it's like last shot of love or something? Yeah, bro.

Really pretty. Back in the day. She was like a 90s R&B. R&B singer, yeah. I'm sure I'd know a song if I heard. Yeah, she is born in 1979. She's 42.

Yeah, she was pretty. What was that show called? What's that bothering me? Brandy? No. For the love of Ray J, I think. Flavor of Love? No, that's...

What's that with Flavow? How do you go on a show Trying to get at Flavor Flav? What are you talking about? Was he getting Hala Girls back then? I don't know why. I don't know how. I think it was like the...

Why don't hateing on Flavor Flavs? You see the clock? He does have some flavor. He does not have any flavor. He didn't have flavor back then. He doesn't have flavor fucking now. Listen, I'm 41 years old. I grew up in that era.

Hoops. She was in the final two. It was her in New York. Oh, you were a Hoops fan? I was a New York fan. What? What are we talking about? Nothing.

For the flavor of love. Yeah, for the flavor of love. Do you know what show we're talking about? Yeah, the two finalists were New York and what was her name? Hoops. Wait, Hoops. Wait, Hoops. I think she dated Shaq.

Yes. Wow. She was bad. Yeah, she was bad. Yeah, I should have watched it. She was bad. She was super cool, too. Actually, I did like hooves.

I could have just fell for it. Remember when New York spit on pumpkin? Yeah, I do. What? Oh, pumpkin? Wait, I can't leave her pumpkin. I hated pumpkin. She did.

She fucking, like, honked a lugy. And just, you can see it in the air flying. Just. It was, like, on her eye. That's the worst. I would probably puke back at the person that did that. Exorcist style? I would just.

I'd be like, projectile. Take that Chipotle back. No. Yo, here's the next topic. I have the annual tweet that I tweet once a year because it's an annual tweet.

It's like the Catalina Wine Mixer event. But it is a tweet that I tweet out where I ask people do you stand up to wipe your ass or do you sit down to wipe your ass? We were talking about this at breakfast. I hate when people tweet about shitting in general.

It's so gross. It is gross. Nobody needs to know that you pooped. So you don't need that. Nobody needs to know about your poop. It's gross. It's gross. It's gross. I'm like, I'm like, I'm interested.

I'm so uncomfortable with like tweeting about shit. So if you're scrolling and then Zinney is like, I just took a massive dump. I hate it. I'm like, why? Why tweet that? Nobody gives a fuck. It's gross. I do.

Like Sam tweeted one this morning and I was like, that's great. Sam? Yeah, I saw that too. What? He's like, it's going to be a good day. I had a shit and I only wiped once. Nobody cares. You only, I don't remember last time I wiped once.

you guys wipe once I bet she's like I don't know I don't talk about shit Only when I'm eating healthy Anyway do you stand up to wipe her ass or do you sit down I have like Do you do one of these like Chris Marsh Or do you do one of these

It's like a other people Bro Chris Marsh says that he stands up To wipe and when he said an event And when he said an event He can look because he's tall He can look over the stalls to people walking in So if you ever ever walked into a bath I mean you see him in his head like this.

He's wiping his ass. Standing up. So I'm like, that's not normal. I have a technique. I use regular toilet paper twice. And that's when I'm sitting down. Then I'll stand up, twerk a little. And then take my wipes and then spread the cheeks and then wipe.

I do the same shit. I ain't talking about it. What's say you. Anyway, it is, it was, I'm going to tell you why. He needs to know your routine. I am going to tell you. I am going to tell you why. See how gross that it?

Bro, I'm going to tell you why I tweeted it because last year I had 40,000 people that voted. Out of 40,000 people that voted, it was 50-50, and I could not believe my eyes. Really? Today, however. Wait, so are you a sitter or stander? Sitter. If you're like clamped your cheeks together. Yeah, if you stand up, you're making a spooky sandwich. If you stand up, your legs are like spread and you just spread your ass and what do you?

Wait, what are you wipe away? You spread your left chair. Let's just move on, bro. There's no way the viewers like this. Okay. Yeah, it's fine. Hey, thank you. Nobody likes talking about this.

Don't tweet it. 34,000 votes in the last, I don't know, five hours. Okay, 68, 32%. It's acceptable to reply to a tweet about it, but it's not acceptable to just go out and tweet it. Yeah. Fact? I guess. Sure.

I don't like either. Who cares? I mean, I don't like either either. I don't like that shit on my timeline. But if someone else puts it on the TL and you reply to it, it's not as bad as you going out of your way to put it on the T.S. Just wondering anyone else. Keep the TL poop free, people.

Bullshit. Yeah. I'm with it. 100%. Erks me. Let's move on. Next topic. So we have two.

We have Dr. Disrespect's book. Congratulations to him. I'm becoming a best seller. Like Seth and I? That's super sick. And then we have TP joining envy and we play Toronto Ultra first. That's a lot of topic style at one time. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So Dr. Which one do we care about? Congrats, Deep. I haven't, I haven't read it. I haven't read the, I haven't read the,

I haven't read the, the doctor's just in the book. He's making me look like a dick right there. You said it. Congrats deep. So TEP, join Envy. Congrats.

Congrats to him. Happy, happy. That's him. And Molly Puff. People wanted him to join Optic, obviously. I wanted him to join Optic too, but, you know, timing,

timing is, is a way to TEP. Timing is a little bit of, of, of Call of Duty timing is a thing. in real life also. Timing is everything in life.

Timing is everything in life? Do you have a... How is he happy if he signed? Huh? I said if he wants to make moves, you'll make moves. Yeah. What I'm saying?

They gave him in a good contract, obviously. Yeah. Signed it. No, and it's a good org too, you know what I mean? So congrats to him. The right down the street,

hopefully we can do something together at some point or another. He's always around anyway. Like, every single time we go out, like we chill. He's always there with Deege. So yeah, congrats. I wonder, like, is it...

Would you have picked them up as a constant creator or like a warzone player or like a coach analyst for the team? Warzone player? Yeah. Coach analysts. He's already done that and I can tell you firsthand he did not like it. But I think he didn't like it because you and Dashie always and TJ always being late. He loved us. No.

No. I don't love you guys. I literally ate dinner at his house. We double dated like a month, two months ago. Yeah. And he said what? He loves me. Oh.
