Gamers 8 Gaming Festival in Saudi Arabia
announces a $45 million price pool.
That's insane.
The esports titles not yet released,
but last year,
they had Rocket League, Dota, 2,
Fortnite, and Rainbow 6.
Oh, and PubG Mobile.
Do you think Call of Duty is going to be in it?
No.
I'd come back.
There's not a single activity.
45 mil?
Yeah.
Shit, I might come back.
Fuck around.
I'm fuck with you.
Who would you drop?
Who would you say,
yo, I need my seat back.
What's up everybody?
Welcome back to episode 114 of the Optic podcast.
It's hard to believe we have done this for 114 weeks straight and we have never missed an episode.
Well, that is actually almost true.
We should do a, I actually want a stat who's been on the most of them.
Me.
Hector for sure.
Besides Hacks.
Besides you.
You think so?
You think it's, no.
I think Seth's been on recently a lot.
It's one of us.
No, I haven't been on recently.
I always used to be on.
No, always.
Formal was a lot on a bunch for a long time.
Formal's been getting...
Formal don't fucks with you all now.
Formal's been in the past now.
He and I text all the fucking time.
He only texts me like when he's just trolling.
Yeah?
Yeah.
He'll send me a TikTok every now and then, but...
Yeah.
So this episode is brought to you by Factor ExpressVPN and Rocket Money
and we'll tell you a little bit more about them later on in the podcast.
They're probably just sick.
Who was on the podcast last week?
Me.
You and who else?
I think I was supposed to be on it, but I was sick.
Zinn and
Dan Ghostie
Okay, so nobody talked about
the mission
that we went on in Colorado
No, we did.
Who did?
We went on a mission?
No, we did,
we talked about it.
It was you,
it was me, you, Bose,
and who?
No, we didn't.
And Zendee, right?
Did we talk about our landing?
You guys yelled at me
when I went to the bathroom.
Yeah, you landed sideways.
Yeah.
You landed sideways?
That was a bumpy
flight.
Not bumpy flight,
bumpy flight,
bumpy landing.
That was sketch.
That was the most third.
You guys are Jet Suite?
Yes.
You know what's great about having our major here?
You don't have to fly?
No flight.
Are you still scared of flying?
No.
So you'll fly PJ now?
No.
Hutch is not coming because he's afraid of flying.
He says, my anxiety is through the roof.
And I'm like, are you sure it's anxiety and not excitement?
Because there's a fine line between anxiety.
Would you see that TikTok on that?
I think I saw a TikTok on that.
I think it was like Dane Cook.
He was like, it's excitement.
It's not anxiety.
It was not the one.
with Birkais Krishna for sure.
No. Anyway, it was from
that TikTok from Dane Cook. By the way,
he's a thick boy now. He...
He streams, too. Does he stream? What?
It streams what? The war zone.
Yeah, he likes... Is he the comedian?
Yeah, the comedian. He was so good
back in the day. He was...
Yeah, he was literally the comedian
when I was in, what, like, middle school or something?
Bro, he was good because of his
body movies. He's like, I was driving
once, and I'm like, and it was a big wheel,
apparently, so I was driving. It was pretty good.
Dude, Dan Cook
has like a crazy like come up story.
Probably has a crazy come down story too.
For sure.
I mean,
he got fucking hated on.
For what?
Is it the entire?
Everyone just like the entire comedian said it on him.
It's like he rose so fast in comedy because he played he was like the first person,
the first comic to play like the social media game.
He uploaded all of his stuff to MySpace and people were just sharing it on MySpace like
constantly.
Yeah.
And so he just and then he sold out.
Madison Square Garden, like as like a comedian in 2002 or something like that that?
Who was hitting on them?
All of them.
Everyone.
The same people that probably hate on Optic.
Everyone.
No one hates.
It is impossible to me to understand how anyone would hate something so cool.
So I just don't exist.
Dude, I genuinely don't get it.
Like I don't.
I'm trying to think.
Do you all hate on anything?
Is there something it like a maybe you're an Eagles man?
Maybe you hate the fucking jets or something.
I don't know.
No, not like that.
Is there?
I just, I don't get it.
This is so funny.
Looking at Nick with his hat backwards like that.
And it's just, no, it's not backwards.
It's worse.
It's to the side.
Do y'all hate on anything?
Yeah.
Yo.
Yo.
Yo hate on anything, yo.
Shout out of Doc.
So, so when I landed, when I landed, we landed during the, the dust storm of Dallas.
And since then, I've had this, this, this thing going on inside of my head where I can't,
I can't still my ears are having pop.
So I hear like muffled.
So you're going to be like,
eh,
a lot more.
Is that what it is?
Yeah.
Because my ears,
my ears yesterday like would not,
would not unpop.
Yeah,
sinuses.
Sciences?
Sciences?
Yeah.
My ears were like completely clogged.
It was pissing me all.
So still,
look,
I have,
I've had like an upper respiratory thing since I landed.
It's like a tight,
it's literally my,
my allergies.
Something happened because,
When I landed, I went to go fishing, caught a 7.8, second biggest bass of my life.
Massive, you would have fucking loved it, Seth, because I know that you like...
Was it a LMB?
A largemouth bass.
That's the one you recorded?
Yeah.
A type of shit.
I heard you...
Bro.
It's the adrenaline and also the fucking fight.
Yeah.
And no matter...
I weigh 2.10 right now naked.
Okay?
I'm 2.15.
Dane's your fat ass.
So I'm like, I'm literally, I'm like, bro.
I'm like, yo.
Yo, and I'm shore fishing, which you're not, you know, you're not, I'm not saying you're not supposed to.
But I, it's like, we were coming down to go get lunch and I just said, I'm, I'm just got to keep fucking, well, these guys come in and I'm, and I caught this 7.8.
And I was just like, fucking, I like, I get chills right now talking about it.
Anyway, long story short, because of the amount of smoke that there was in the air, barbecue smoke, cigar smoke, uh, uh, uh, fire smoke.
I didn't drink. No, I'm not, I'm not a big drinker anymore. Do a lot of them drink?
Yeah.
Because I feel like Fisher people, when they go out, they get blocked up.
Bro, they left the garage mall?
There's nothing else to do.
That's what I'm saying.
You're sitting there on a boat.
Yeah.
If Hex ever takes me out at 4 a.m., I'm getting fucking hammered.
Yeah.
I'm hammered by 445 on the drive then.
Yeah, you tell me when.
You're free now.
When is the like, the spawning season?
Right now.
So we need to wait for a good day.
If we go to Toby's this week or next week or the week after that, we'll be good.
If we can get like us for, if we get a solid group, I'm down, that'd be fun.
No, but this is the thing.
I don't want to go try hard with tech.
This is a thing. Toby, Toby from Battle Springs Ranch has a mansion out there.
It sleeps like 40 people.
Each room has like fucking eight bunk beds.
But it's big enough to where if we just take a spot.
We can literally take everybody from here and go go there.
We'll put, and there's a separate house.
And we get branding for it.
We get a sponsor.
For what?
So you.
Optic fishing, excursion, sponsor.
sponsored by Jack Lynx.
Jack Links actually works.
Feeds your wild side.
Feed your wild side.
And anyway, long story short, I've been super stuffed up.
They gave me...
That'd be a great video.
Have everyone in Fisher Gear hats.
We have to bring the Yeti.
Is that our Buehuryl?
What is that?
Yeah.
It's Dag 18A.
Is he a Yeti?
Oh, it is a Bureolel.
The Yeti or Sasquah.
Sasquah.
That should...
They're the same fucking.
They're both.
That's awesome.
Why?
What does it do to you?
It makes me breathe.
Let's just keep a conversation going on this time.
Wait, you have an inhaler?
Is this the first time you've hit it?
Yeah.
Is this the first time in your life you've like hit an inhaler?
It's,
it is.
Where did you get that from?
From the doctor.
I got one too.
Bro, I'm keeping this because I've never had an inhaler in my life.
So I'm going to put it on my collectible section.
What does it do?
It gets you fucking stone.
Hit it.
Hit it before your morning walks.
I have like nine of those.
Does it actually learn?
Do you use yours before you run or anything?
I use it before and after.
What does it do?
I don't know.
Literally, no, albuterol is crazy.
It like helps you, it like makes you breathe.
They say nothing works better than albuter.
It's like the best working medicine I've ever experienced.
They sound weird.
They say.
Is that what's in all of them?
Albuterol?
Yeah.
I'm guessing it's like a fast acting like asthma.
So like if you're like having an asthma, I don't know about an attack,
but if you're like having a flare up and you're like
so have you ever had it do you have asthma at all
or I don't think so like whenever you breathe in
you literally it feels like your wind pipes are like closed
so you're like yeah you can hear it too
you can hear it like when I have it's not right
when I have it really bad you can hear it in my chest
and then I hit that and I'm within 30 seconds
I can breathe what's crazy about my thing is that I can breathe
fine but the second that I let all my air out
yeah but is that mine
Damn.
Parker.
No.
Yeah, that's the worst part about it.
Is what?
That I'm like, I know that there's something going on in my chest, so I'm not smoking.
Yeah.
And then somebody was supposed to help me yesterday, and they didn't.
What?
You needed some weed?
No.
Hitch, at least in CBD edibles.
Ah.
Legal CBD edibles.
Yeah.
You ordered them and no one brought them?
No, no Brato.
They drove right by my house.
God forbid.
You go one day without altering your mind.
Well, I think maybe the guy who was driving had to drive an hour and a half downtown.
Fucking chilled.
Back to Frisco.
How, you left at what time, 4.30?
No, well, somebody keeps scheduling me to leave around five.
Who?
Matt?
It rhymes with that bag.
I don't think, I don't think we should blame Matt for everything.
But most of it.
It's fun, though.
A lot.
Yeah.
So, so, uh, so yeah, they gave me this thing.
I don't know what it's supposed to do.
All I notice that they said, don't take it, take a hit.
Take a hit.
Take a inhale every four hours.
But I just been like, I need to get through this so that I can get cleaner.
So I just been hitting this shit like a babe.
You're like bows?
Yeah, like money biscuit.
No, but it was good.
It was a good fishing trip.
We do have to go and take our own fishing trip.
But I would implore.
And look, if it takes, the thing is, it's like, we should want to do this just for ourselves.
Not for content or not for work.
We should just go do it because it's fun.
It's fun, man.
Be out and the outdoors.
You can drink all you want, eat all you want.
Good luck trying to find a place of shit.
But you can pee anywhere.
How do you shit out there?
Off the side of the boat.
Because I'm not like you guys are like,
I don't know if all three of you were like this,
but I shit anywhere.
No.
As far as like bathroom.
It's like you have to be in your.
If I'm in a grocery store, I'm blowing it up.
NFL game.
there's piss all over every seat
I have to
I can't just like it
I can't enjoy the moment
if I have to shit bad
like I can't hold it
it's got to go
I feel heavy it's like
something's
it's just
you too bucks me up
I feel that
I gotta let it go
I don't know
it is crazy
how disgusting
like a
like a
sports game bathroom
men's bathroom
men are gross
it's disgusting
who's fucking
who's fucking
fucking up that hard.
Everyone is out.
They're shit places.
You're not going to tell me that you've gone to a club and it's like 3 a.m.
You're fucking up to your tits, mate.
You go to the bathroom and then you see bottles on the ledges and you don't try to make
pee into each and every single one of those.
Men have pointers.
Therefore, they do.
So I've heard.
I thought you were going somewhere else with that.
And I was agreeing with you like this.
And then you said the bottle thing.
And I was like, no, you just.
That's foul.
Yeah, not the bottom.
I've never done that for the record.
If I hit the rim, I'll clean it up.
If it's a clean bathroom,
it's a shit show.
No, no, no, this is 3 a.m.
At a club.
But I don't know how clubs are.
I'm not fucking like,
you got to think, like,
aiming elsewhere.
That's what you hear through the wall.
See, I was never a big,
I was never a big club person.
I hate that.
But the times that I did go to a club,
it was Club 720.
At the bottom, they had regatone and reggae.
And the main floor,
they had all the, all the poppy, like,
house thing. And then on the second one they had
hip hop and then the fourth, that's where they had
that Latin music. Where were you at?
All four of them. I was good in every
borough. I was good in every borough. You had a different girl for each
floor? No, dude. No, I was there with Jude.
Jude, let me
be honest. I was testing you. No, no, Jude wasn't there.
But I was just having fun with myself and my friends
talking shit. Anyway.
That's what we do every fucking time. Like, we
the amount of times I've
gone out and it like,
Sort of the goal is girls, but it just ends up being you and your boys.
No one has game.
Best thing ever.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You either go out.
I don't.
You flirt with girls for a little bit, or you get jumped by two guys.
I mean, whatever it makes it, just have fun.
That's my motto.
Omanson and I were just talking about the last time I got into a bar fight was when I was 22 years old,
2012, well, it wasn't 12.
The last time I ever got into a fight in a bar.
In a fight, period.
And I just don't ever want to revisit that.
I don't want to get them.
Did I win?
Yeah.
What do you point at?
It's a little birdie.
There's a little bird up there.
It wants to join the Pots, the podcast.
Yeah, look at that little bit.
I'm excited for tomorrow.
I'm excited to see, so there's several things I'm excited for this weekend.
And if you guys are watching this,
merch is going to be out of control.
Wait.
The first match is at 3.30 tomorrow?
I don't think so because we play at 4.30.
I know that.
They should start 2, 335, 630.
I think you're right.
Yeah.
No, six.
Six is the last game.
Six?
They start at two, right?
And it's an hour and a half.
So two, three, thirty, five, six, thirty.
Yeah, I'm excited for this.
I'm excited for this event because it's sort of a dry run for what we're doing later on in the year for Optic Day.
What time are those matches in?
That's east.
That's eastern.
So they start at one thirty?
Thursday.
So we play two 30 tomorrow?
We play at four.
We play at four.
We play at four.
We play at four.
We play at four 30 tomorrow.
This is, then it can't be east.
because 3.30 here would be 2.30.
Shit, yeah, you're right.
Of course.
Matt, is this right?
What time?
That's central?
Okay.
So we play at 3.30.
Damn.
1230, man.
1230.
Damn.
Yeah.
Well, I'm excited because we're doing the tour of the hex quarters,
which is something that we should have been, we should have done that at 60-50,
and then we should have done that at the scuff house.
But obviously because there were residences.
You know, obviously people live there.
It would have been, if one of my neighbors was famous,
I'm not saying that we were,
but if someone, one of my favorites was,
and they had like 90 people waiting in line to go there,
like just throwing garbage.
But fucking be neat.
If you're in line tomorrow, don't let any garbage.
Don't embarrass me.
What's going on tomorrow?
Yeah, what are you talking about?
Oh, I'm doing a farewell tour of the hex quarters.
People are coming there?
People are buying, they already bought sold out.
They bought time slots from A to 815.
Somebody gets a tour.
They got a tour.
they get access to
merch
goodbye farewell merch
from the hex quarters
it's a good goodbye
it's a
they take pictures
what I want to do
is I want to
you're gonna leave
like the weed and shit out
what weed
there's no weed there
what the fuck
what weed
there's no weed
there's a weed
I mean
you should have hired me
to DJ
the weed play
but I just hit play
also has anyone
told formal
yeah yeah yeah we do
I made sure
that the page
that's what I was asking
I'm actually leaving
from here
Formal has smoked in like fucking six months.
I'm not saying just being there.
You know how checked he would be?
No, no, no, he knows.
Scrimming and then all of a sudden, like there's...
Oh my God.
The green walls in it?
He would be so checked.
No, no, no, he'd the idea of coming down here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He loved, that's his, like, it's like his safe spot.
Yeah, well, the hex quarters.
The hex quarters is...
The hexquarters is better than this.
He hasn't left that 400 foot radius since, like, moving here.
Since he went to Charlotte.
Yeah.
And then he comes back.
Besides, besides the, besides.
Besides traveling to events, that's his own.
And that's fine.
That's what the Hexford says, safe haven.
Are you just doing a tour?
Is there like music?
From 8 to 12.
From 8 to 12.
Like a museum.
If you want to come by and play music, you can.
But what I want to do is I don't want to be there the second that people walk in.
I want them to experience it the way that they, without anybody telling them, I mean,
don't touch anything, but I want them to go in there and go and look at what they want to look at.
You know, if they want to get as close to this microphone on the trophies, get that close.
Don't fucking touch them.
But get close and look at it.
I want people to take,
I want people to experience,
to smell the swass from Hitch's chair.
You know, that's what I want them to do.
I bet there is something there.
It's there.
It belongs.
So it's going to, I'm very, very happy.
Yeah, yeah.
You just see some guy pressed up against your chairs.
Like face tube ass cheeks.
Yeah, no.
I, uh, it's going to go.
We have security, uh, indoor and,
and, and, and,
but I do I I think it's gonna be a good thing how many people are how many tickets
it were sold I don't know Matt do you know he's typing that starts on that
starts on Friday tomorrow so it starts tomorrow yeah tomorrow from 8 to 11 is that
the only day or 8 to 12 when's the last day of the Hexford like official
November November something oh but people are gonna be traveling here for this
for the thing so I figured let's just do it now because like this should have
never been moved this desk should have never been fucking moved but Roger
who chooses to do what the fuck he wants when he wants,
he took it down here.
That's that boy.
No, it's not.
He's not that bull.
You got to let him run wild, man.
No, hell no.
Not with this.
Anyway, so this should have been there.
I made it clear,
and he still did it.
He's, oh, I didn't know about this one.
I mean, you did, Raj.
Anyway, so I'm very...
That's not Rod.
That's not right, man.
He does what he wants.
I like seeing that out of Rod.
No, I don't.
I don't.
He better calm down.
He used to be just a quiet kid.
Now he don't give a fuck.
No, he got comfortable.
He's going to have to check his ass.
No, I'm kidding.
So, yeah, I'm excited about tomorrow.
After that, I'm going to go and go to the event,
handle a couple of preparations there.
And then we'll go on.
I'm excited to see the first ever live,
the first ever live scump watch party.
Yeah, it's going to be cool, man.
Are you nervous at all?
No.
Dude, he's competed in stressful situations.
1V1.
I mean, the only thing
that I'd be nervous about
was something not work.
I'm not worried about
like actually doing.
Yeah.
Because that shit's easy.
It's just.
Congrats on the first run
on the breakdown.
I know,
I mean,
I know the stream went off,
but the breakdown
people were,
I saw nothing but amazing feedback.
Imagine.
Yeah,
it was tough.
I mean,
we had 120,000 viewers
and the stream died.
And the stream dies,
boom.
It would have went up.
You probably would have hit like 140.
I mean, OBS is not built
to handle 120,
in my opinion.
That's what happened.
when Ninja rated me for like a hundred and ten thousand.
What?
On my whole PC just like shat itself.
Dude,
Discord stopped working.
Well,
that's not what it was.
No,
that's not what it was.
We had too many scenes in OBS,
then they weren't like split.
Yeah.
And it just blew up.
Yeah.
Image after image after video after image after video.
We have so much shit in there.
Yeah.
I mean,
I get that too,
but the viewership 100%.
Yeah.
A hundred percent like,
that does something.
Do you make?
Yes.
No.
No.
No.
How?
Yeah.
did that to me.
That's what I'm saying.
Because if you have chat pulled up and more people are in chat, it uses more memory.
That's just, I mean, that's what kills the PC.
Is that real?
Yeah.
Like whatever.
I figure since it's not on our servers and it's on Twitch of servers that it wouldn't
Damn.
So we really broke that shit.
Yeah.
Is on a server.
Dude, one time, because like I have a fuck ton of scenes because of like how TSD runs.
And like one time Nick Merck's rated and it was just like my whole PC just shut off.
It was just like.
I was on the boat watching.
I'm like, oh shit, oh shit.
And I was like, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm waiting.
Seth was going to call me.
And he's going to be like, oh, I don't.
I mean, what could you do?
Yeah, thank God.
Yeah, I felt bad, but.
Yeah, we were, the, the, the show went really well.
It did well in your YouTube channel, too, which is, like, for an hour long thing.
It's fucking amazing.
I do that well.
I do have suggestions, and I'll tell you in private, but it was such a good, I was, I gave you props for
the idea.
I called you and gave you.
and gave you your flowers because it was not only a good idea,
but it was well executed.
Zinn did I.
That was good.
Shouts out to the production team.
They made it,
they made it come to life.
All the editors,
all the people that were working on it,
you know.
Oh, bro.
Rogers got gray hair now.
Bro,
they were like shotguning beers and shit that night.
Yeah.
Did y'all shotgun?
I think it was.
Yeah.
In celebration?
Yeah.
They celebrated more than that.
Wait.
You were shotguning beers and stuff.
beers? They take pride in what they
on the on the balcony.
On the somebody's balcony.
Wait, really?
So you guys didn't come to the
party to go shotgun beers on a balcony.
You guys are,
oh, you guys did it before dinner.
I mean, that's kind of, that's
that's typical. Yeah, we went to the Henry
after it was, it was nice.
The Henry? Yeah, right. It's like right over here
or like that way.
Yeah. And it's, it was nice.
Yeah. So I did, I did a podcast. I did the
Have you ever done the flycast?
No.
You should do it.
Have I?
No.
You should do it.
We just started doing guests like three weeks ago.
It was forced you on.
Yeah, it was good.
Hopefully someone can force you on.
Well, first of all, you've, I've been asking them to come on the eaves rep for so long.
And after all I've done.
Well, it's always an inconvenience for my schedule.
Uh-huh.
If you do it like earlier one day.
Hey, what's up?
What's up?
Gang?
Hello, hello.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Apparently there's a tour at the downtown office today.
too.
Shut.
We got the other half of TST out there.
Anyway, so I just did the flycast
and we had like three different moments
in which we were so in sync
that it was freakish.
Yeah, I saw the one.
People were telling me I'm getting dropped off the flycast
now because you guys were so in sync.
What was it?
Isn't that crazy?
They don't look at the body of work
and they're just like, get this fucker off, man.
There's a foundation and a few sprinkles
got put on top for one episode
and suddenly now I need replaced
off the shit off the podcast.
He's,
right,
first of all,
you would have to be there.
Aren't you a co-founder of it?
Yes.
No,
but the thing,
I own 50%.
Yeah,
the thing is this is like,
you're never there to begin with.
So how can you get replaced?
You know what I mean?
Wait,
what was the moment you guys,
I forget what it was.
I said,
I said,
yeah,
he was like,
he was looking up like his,
what is it,
23 and me?
Yeah.
He was like,
oh, it says I have anxiety.
I don't have anxiety.
And I was like,
yeah,
you have the opposite of anxiety.
whatever that is, and then we both look at Matt and said,
what's the opposite of exciting, Matt?
And we said it in the same tone.
I saw that clip.
Remember the, that's better than what we did when we both like.
Yeah.
We did that too.
Really?
We did that later, the same pie.
Yeah.
The thing there is that I watch, as I always say, I watch the flycast like all the time.
I think you guys are hilarious.
But my brain, my brain knew that you in moments like that,
ask Matt that question in that tone.
and my brain just said it
and you said it at the exact same time.
So it wasn't, it wasn't,
I mean, we definitely said it at the same time
but it was like my brain
interpreting what was going to happen next
because of the amount of flycasts that I've watched.
Because you guys do that shit all the time.
We do that.
So I was like,
I do that on the optic podcast sport more often
because Matt's usually not there for the flycast.
He usually just sets it up and says,
he makes him leave.
He goes, all right, you guys are good.
And then he dips.
That's,
He says it every time
He has not said anything but that
Alright you guys are good
Let me ask
And he goes this
How much
Just start adding one thing that he goes like
And then he goes
Yeah
Then he salutes and he's out
But but but
Do you like doing the flight cast here
Or the garage mahala bath
Or it doesn't matter
The scuff house
Honestly
That was the best place to do it
Where'd you guys do it?
3 a.m. anywhere. Would you guys be a little sauced ever?
I mean, I was more than sauce. We were, yeah, those were our cracker days. Dude, I don't know how.
We were doing them at 4 a.m. And I would see. And we were both 160 pounds. I'd see like two
and a half hour, two and a half hour episodes. And I would like, I started, I would now, I'd look back and I like, click through and I listen.
I'm like, what the fuck were we talking about? Yeah. But I don't, I think I just had the perfect concoct.
concoction.
Like the way the flycast was originally like set up is like, I don't even know if you remember
this.
Like when we talked about the flycast, we were like, so it's a podcast series and like people,
everybody has a podcast now, but not everybody had a podcast back then.
So we were like, okay, let's do it.
Let's be different.
Let's do a different location every podcast.
Oh.
The thumbnails were the best shit ever.
Yeah.
And then we did really cool thumbnails too.
And like that was the part of the flycast.
So like sometimes we were dressing fly.
At least at the bit like not fly, but like I'd wear the.
I think like a banana hat.
You would not text version of fly, but we would.
Well, the whole reason is called the flycast is because we would have like deep,
we thought we would have deep conversations.
And I was like, dude, I went, Aaron, we said we wish that like somebody could listen to us
have these conversations.
So somebody would be a fly on the wall.
And so like that's on the fly cast.
That's how the fly cast came about.
I always meant it meant like fly.
Like we were fly.
Yeah.
I think at the beginning I sort of tried with that.
Like I would, maybe I'd,
But I just remember wearing like a banana hat, maybe a bandana one time.
Maybe a pantana one time and like tried to be fly with it.
Dude, that it was a, uh, I told a lot of told a lot of stories.
It's pretty much what I said.
Early flycast was called.
Yeah, I don't know what, how did I want to?
I wanted to be on that episode, but I don't know.
Did you, you didn't go through like your life and shit, did you?
No, it was like old MLG stories.
And then like I asked them through stuff about like what's happening in e-sports.
nowadays, which is good. It was a really good episode.
All MLG stories, give me an example of one that you did.
My birthday at MLG Atlanta is my birthday, Thursday.
Was that insane? I walked into the bar and I got carried out of the bar.
You used to get fucked up at events. When I first joined Optic, you would get fucked
every, it was every Thursday of the event. Yeah. And I don't know why you would choose that day
because it's like, you want to wake up Friday and like feel good and be ready for the weekend.
Because you had to do it on Thursday
Because it was either Thursday or Sunday
Because they play on Friday, Saturday, Sunday
But they would
That team would destroy everyone on Friday
So it was like
You didn't matter about Friday
You didn't have to go like
Like the old school college duty days
Like I remember the team would get
Fucked up on Thursday night
Why is there? Why is there handworm right there Matt
The team?
Take care
Would you just be bedridden
On Friday?
Us?
Yes.
I'll put to like
Yeah, I'll put to our match.
You don't remember getting fucked up on Thursdays
Dude, when was it in, was it Vegas?
I remember drinking with some pros.
Seth, Seth, one time at Vegas was like, dude, we got to play tomorrow.
And he had like a row of beers in front of it.
Like a row of empty beers.
Oh, wait.
Was that the one when Nick Merks was there?
Was it Vegas?
I think I was talking to Nick Merck's.
That might have been, that might have been it.
I can't remember.
I mean, there were several instances.
This was like 26.
This was like every event.
Every event.
Yeah, every event.
16. This one time?
I just can't. I can't drink anymore.
Yeah.
Well, not of us do that anymore.
Con got like super serious out of nowhere.
No, no, no. The reason I did it on Thursdays.
I mean, it was still serious.
Friday's were just.
They weren't serious. They were pretty easy.
Yeah. Fridays were a break walk.
Thursdays was because I knew that Friday, Saturday and Sunday they were going to be
playing and there was going to be fans around. So I was like, yo, I got to be cool.
I can't, you know, it was being professional.
There's going to be young people there and shit like that.
I wanted to be a bad.
thing and also Adam at Pacella and all of the talent was we're also like get fucked up on
Thursdays and then Friday and then Sundays I never I never drink on Sundays because I will never
nobody hangs out the the thing is this is like I after after the after the drunk incidents in
London I said I'm never going to drink ever again and travel the next day traveling
while hung over is oh it's not worse it's torture I've been trying to not do that now
Yeah.
Like, I'll limit myself on Sunday just because I know sitting on a plane when your stomach's just,
oh, it's the war shit.
I remember one of the Halo events.
Our flight was at like 7 a.m.
And I'm sitting down in the lobby hammered at like 5 a.m.
I'm like, I'm not making this flight.
Did you make it?
No, I didn't even attempt.
You should have just stayed up at that point and just.
I did stay up, but I probably didn't, I didn't go to sleep to probably like seven or eight,
but I was just like, there's no way.
Like, I was so drunk.
Like people don't deal we don't do that anymore you just nobody I feel like nobody does I think didn't you tell me a story one time where you were in Vegas and you had to check out on like a Thursday and instead of checking out you just slept all day and you got a whole that was the event nice I slept I went back to my hotel I slept no maids came or anything and I just no I was my card uh did I check my card I think I was afraid my card would stop working so I stayed in the hotel the whole or in the room the whole time.
Until they forced you out?
Well, I didn't get forced out.
No one came, so I just got a free night.
And then I...
This is Vegas, right?
I don't remember whatever it was.
There's no way they're doing that in Vegas.
They're on the ball there.
There's a...
Yeah.
Yeah, usually they're fucking kicking me out at 9 a.
They're knocking at 11.
Like, are you leaving soon?
And I'm like, yeah, I'm packing.
This happened at the Super Bowl.
It was like, I was literally five minutes late and they kept coming.
And I was like...
You got a call like ahead of time.
Oh, the day before he was like...
Well, no, I was in the room for like maybe five to ten minutes
after I was supposed to be and they kept coming back
over and over. Are you checking out?
And I was like, I'm literally packing.
All you have to say is I got a lay checkout at one.
And then they'll be like, okay.
Bro, you want, well, they have a sheet.
What I saw in Vegas?
I walked by it and took a screenshot or took a picture.
He won.
He won.
That's a number.
It's, you know what number that is?
What?
I don't know.
What is it?
I'll show you guys.
It's got, it's the biggest stack of roulette chips I've ever seen.
And he hit the number.
No, and I don't know how much.
It,
That's like an absurd amount.
Unless, even if those are...
14.
14 hit.
Do you see that?
Even if those are dollar chips.
Even if those are dollar chips.
Look at that stack.
Times that times 35 or 34.
I see like a purple or black chip in there.
Yeah, there's one black chip.
Bro, we had that shit.
Do you want me to send this to you, Matt, for the pod?
Okay.
Dude.
Do you have a crazy roulette story, right?
I have several crazy roulette stories.
I never really.
You want to hear mine?
Yeah.
I never win anything.
I never play it because I just lose every time.
All right.
So I, we go to, we go to Vegas for Alexis 30th.
I go up.
Oh, recently.
Yeah, yeah, like two weeks ago.
And like I had a pretty good like run or whatever.
And then she kept playing and she kept losing.
So like, I was like, well, I just got to keep playing too.
So then this last night, we're there for like four days.
Fast forward, fast forward.
I'm down.
I end up, I go up big and then I lose it all.
and then I want to get it back so I keep getting money out.
What's your big?
Like I was up like 800, like a thousand maybe.
And so I lose it all.
So then I'm eventually down like 1500.
And this is the last night at like 5 a.m.
And I go to a table and I hit two numbers.
And so I'm like, I have like $700 of chips.
And I'm like, dude.
And it's like 5 a.m.
She's really tired.
And we have a, we have a flight at like 11.
So I was like, okay, if I just put,
I had $700 in black chips.
I was like, if I just put all of this on red, it hits red, then I come out even.
But I've been playing, I didn't play my numbers all weekend.
And I was like, actually, I can't not play my number because if it hits my number, I'm a freak out.
So I put 600 black chips on red and $100 chip on your seven.
Yeah.
I spin it and it hits seven.
What?
$4,700.
Jesus.
Yeah.
It was the craziest experience.
I was, it was 5 a.m.
Was there other people around with you?
No, it was just the casino.
It was just the, it was just people like,
you know, I like blackjack dealers
when nobody's there, they're just like,
it was just people like that.
And then I freak out and they just like,
like look at me.
I'm like, oh my God.
At like 5 a.m.
Damn.
Wait, so Lexi wasn't with you there?
No, she was.
She was right beside me.
And she was like in shock.
She was just like,
like, like, the fact,
the fact, it like rolled over 20 and hit 7.
And I was like, oh.
And then he just like, he just like,
gives me like 100, 100 chips.
Just like...
Love that shit.
Is he freaking out?
Is he like, damn?
Yeah.
I forgot about this until later, but like the chip that it hit, I was like, can I take a picture?
And he's like, no.
It's like, ah!
And so I took all of my chips, then I tipped him the $100 chip.
I was like, here, you'd have it.
That's a good job to have.
Last time I had a...
Last time I had a good win like that, I think it was when we won.
I don't know.
I don't know what it was,
but Fizz was there, Rishi was there,
Duncan,
everybody was there.
And I remember we were playing craps
and we were just fucking murdering craps,
murdering craps.
I don't know how to play crap.
Me either,
but I learned that day
and I forgot about it immediately after.
Seems complicated.
Yeah,
so anyway.
I hit seven.
I want a ton of cash.
I want a ton of cash.
I have my cigar.
I'm wearing my suit.
I'm like,
yeah,
hell yeah.
I grab it.
And then I'm walking and then I see,
it was a Cesar's palace.
I see a table open.
And I go there.
grab a $100 chip and I'm like Michael Jeffrey Jordan it hits 23 no it hits I was like
holy fuck everyone's like oh my god crazy and we keep walking I see another one next fucking
fucking roll Michael Jordan 100 bucks 3500 bucks or 3400 hundred it hit again it hit again back
to it after murdering after murdering the craps table and since then since then I went on the
driest run that to this to this day I
don't bet no more.
What I do is anytime I'm in Vegas, I go shopping on my phone and buy shoes up to around
5K.
Damn.
What you would spend.
What I would spend, but I still gamble like 1500 most.
See, I have stories but the opposite version.
Like I was, I was in Vegas.
Well, it was like 1,500 in like 15 minutes.
And I just, I bet I put, I put 20 on red and it's black.
So I put 40 on red.
It hits black.
I put 80 on red.
It hits black.
I put 160 one.
Like I just kept doubling.
10, like 10 straight times in a row it hits black.
I was like, this is impossible.
1,500 just going like that.
Like I was like, of course.
Of course I was pissed off, but I was like, this is actually like a glitch in the matrix.
This is actually a moment to like take in because this is fucking absurd.
Note that shit down.
I'm like, it just hits.
Like I'm getting my money back because I'm just doubling it every single time.
Bro, that was my strad.
Didn't work.
At the Elgin Casino, I hit Black 13 times in a row.
On the ninth time that I was, and I was betting like, like $25 chips.
On the ninth time, the lady next to me, she's like, oh my God, bet red.
Please bet red.
And I was like, I grab one of my chips on like, you bet red.
And then I bet on Black again, it fucking hit like four more times to the 13.
I was wearing a fart t-shirt.
It said fart.
It said fart on it.
And I was dancing to me and my boy.
Oh, holy shit.
I was just about saying the other thing.
Me and my boy, Opie, I thought I was back in Chicago.
What was the other thing?
Yeah, this is the slang that people talk about in my old neighborhood, the same way people, you know what I'm saying?
Anyway, me and my dude Opie were together and we were fucking murdering that table too.
But again, since then, no.
I'm, I'm a dry street.
I lose 200, I stop.
Yeah.
You know, there was a taste.
That's not true.
I don't, huh?
That's not true.
What's the most you've ever lost, Gammlet?
Not a lot.
Like 300.
Like, like, 500 or 600, maybe?
I think one of the last times that I did gamble
Because I lose then I just drink and watch other people
One of the last times that I gambled
Like seriously
Watch other people lose
I go up to Forma I'm like shouldn't have done that
No that's no worse
I'd be so jacked me and formal have had heaters
too sitting next to each other playing blackjack
But I think my mind changed
When I was
The first time that we got COVID
And it was me
Nate
Tim
Fucking
Marcel right
Marcel was there but he wasn't gambling
And Ninja
and they were gambling.
They were
and winning,
but they were gambling,
gambling,
they better.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But there was like,
there was a lot of money on the table at one point.
I think at one point there was like
2.30 on the table.
And I only accounted for like maybe like 3,000,
if that,
maybe 3,000.
But they just kept,
they were,
they were bawling out.
These dudes were bawling out.
What table?
Crapts roulette.
Yeah, crap.
Craps.
It was craps and it was at the ARIA sky suites.
Were there like people overseeing this?
Like these guys have 230 grand on the table?
Ninja close down the table just for him and his friends.
Kyler Murray came by?
No, not Kyler Murray.
A quarterback.
Fuck was his name.
Kurt Warner.
No, no.
Anyway.
It was, it was, you know, it was Johnny Mansell?
It was during the height of Ninja.
it was like it was we were there for the McGregor fight
Drake came through no Drake didn't come through
but there was like a lot of like celebrities were coming by
and I was like I was just like man I was sealing
and my man nature was done down like 11 within the first six minutes
and he was just fucking pissed and I was like
you know he made it back and shit but I was like you know what
I can't imagine I'm not I'm like
for the rest of my life you know what I'm saying
I'm not I'm not spending that money no more
I don't get anything out of gambling the same way
I don't get anything out of drinking
So now I get everything on shopping, you know what I mean?
So that's what I do.
I get that.
That is what you blow all your money on now.
Not all my money.
You crazy?
I just don't spend anything but food.
And we don't even pay for food sometimes, so you're right.
You're right.
I wish I could go on DoorDash and see all, like, my entire receipt.
Why?
Why would you even think that?
Just to like, just to learn a lesson.
Just thinking that gives me.
Just see like 60 grand.
They should tell you.
They should allow you.
They can't, they will never tell you the same way that,
that, same way casinos used chips instead of real dollars is the same thing.
I ordered a pizza and it was 60 bucks, dude.
And I'm like, what the fuck am I doing?
And I, I've never watched over my money, right?
Yeah.
So, so much of it.
I'm kidding.
Are you?
So I was just like, I'm like, I'm starting to, I think it's just my age,
that I'm just like weeding out shit that I just,
it doesn't make sense to me anymore as to why I would do something like that.
And although I would pay anything for the convenience of me not having to do something I don't want to, as it is with DoorDash.
I don't want to have to go in line and all that.
But sometimes cookie society, you know, a box of 12 cookies, 24 bucks typically.
But when you pay 60 for 12 cookies, I told you, I'm like, yo, we got to stop doing this shit.
That's five bucks a cookie.
Yeah.
Worth it.
Delicious.
Get the oatmeal one from there and you'll never eat oatmeal cookies ever again.
You dip them in milk?
Only the chocolate chip.
Did you know?
I saw on TikTok where I get all my news.
If you talking about gambling,
if you had bet,
what is it,
like high or low or winning or losing,
like if you bet winning or something,
I forget the fucking gambling turn.
But if you bet like winning every single NBA or NFL game or NHL or ever,
if you bet winning every single time since like 2004,
you would lose.
If you bet losing,
or something since 2004, you would lose.
So, like, gambling's just like
they somehow rig it.
It's the house always, you're basically saying the house
The house always fucking wins.
Yeah.
Computers and shit that are doing all this.
They're literally taking.
I forget the gambling term.
It's not winning or losing.
The over under?
Maybe over under.
I don't fucking.
Like, that's how gambling works.
Like, you have to play, like,
they have their odds for a reason.
Now, sports,
that I will put money up.
For sure.
I'm scared.
I know.
Like prize picks?
They're not a sponsor, but definitely use price picks.
Code Optic gets you a bunch of free bets.
200 of them, I think.
Like, I think Pete, like, snake bites are really big into it.
So I was going to text him.
Into sports cameras?
Fuck it.
Don't hit up anybody besides Paul Eagle, Megna.
Raptor Claus.
That's what he does?
Oh, my God.
Zini has Raptor Claus.
No, he does not.
Dude.
Tell him not to be like that.
Dude.
Really?
We were outside.
Like a show?
It was a month,
the Monday after,
it was like two,
two Mondays ago.
I look over.
He's on like the,
our pool beds.
And I'm in the,
I'm in the pool or I'm in the hot tub smoking a cigar,
you know,
doing my thing.
Yeah,
man.
You know,
it's our Monday off.
And I come back over and I'm drying myself off and I look down.
And I,
oh my God.
I thought my toenails were bad sometimes because I let him get like,
I get them,
I get a little,
mine the other day.
It's like,
I let him get a little crazy sometimes.
and dude, I mean, they were starting,
they were at the point where they were about to start curling.
No.
The structural,
the structural integrity of those things,
yeah.
They were about to start curling.
Bro, I saw ego, I'm like, yo, you got a seashell on your toe.
Oh, no, that's your nail.
Ugh.
Dude, like, it was like,
imagine like this is the toe.
It was like growing over it.
It was insane.
And he sent me a picture last night of nail clippers.
So I hope he got,
hope he fucking took.
care of him.
He's just like
yeah.
He needs that dumb and dumber
scene where they're just like
just buffing them.
Is that where I got it from?
The sandblast?
Yeah, the sandblast.
That's where I got them.

Gamers 8 Gaming Festival in Saudi Arabia announces a $45 million price pool.
That's insane.
The esports titles not yet released but last year, they had Rocket League, Dota, 2,
Fortnite, and Rainbow 6. Oh, and PubG Mobile.
You think Call of Duty is going to be in it?
No.
I'd come back.
There's not a single activity.
45 mil?
Yeah.
Shit, I might come back.
Fuck around.
I'm fuck with you.
Who would you drop?
Who would you say, you know, I need my seat back?
No comment.
No comment.
Shot answer.
Yeah, right.
I mean, what am I supposed to say?
Any answer there is wrong.
But if it's 45 mil.
Then it's got to be right.
The only thing about Saudi Arabia is, oh, I guess I would drink.
The thing, I've gotten to the point, and I was thinking about this yesterday,
I've gotten to the point as an old man is that now I'm crazy.
to have like a like for the first time in my life
to be like man you know what I want like a like a old-fashioned
right now would hit kind of nice old-fashioned you know it did hit nice
in Colorado yeah no you had the the moscow or the other
tequila old-fashioned it was still like something about the
pain of drinking it like eases me yeah because of just all
the shit I've been through yeah and the tough life I've lived
yeah go my bones hurt so just drinking that it's like I can already
see it yeah you've got a hard life
You HALO.
No, no, no, wait, wait.
You playing Halo and.
No, no, no.
We were coming back from Colorado.
So Colorado was the nine-hour trip back.
And in that four-hour van drive from Copper Mountain to the airport, we were, I don't know
how we got on the topic, but we were just talking about how lucky we are to even be here, right?
The amount of alignments and how many there are more.
I know how y'all got there.
No, no, we weren't.
Smoking on that.
No, we had it.
It was, no.
We were.
I was smoking a lot while we were there.
The thing about Colorado,
the thing about Colorado weed is that it's because of where it grows,
it dries differently and it's a little bit dustier
or it crumbles a lot easier.
So perfect for bowls and shit.
But to roll them up, a little bit different.
It doesn't matter.
We were talking about that and then we're like,
man, think about this.
To be here, there are more dead could be humans
than humans that are alive
by an infinite amount.
Right, just think about a sperm, right?
How many sperms is in every ejaculate?
See, I'm speaking scientifically as to not make a sound ghetto.
We're like, yeah, imagine to be this.
And then it's like, and then imagine being born on a place where your family was able
to afford an Xbox for you to be able to play Halo, for you to be able to get on
optic to be doing this as a living.
And then he's like, what did you say after that?
I don't want to say that.
What do you say?
I said, Envy white?
And be white?
I said it and then I like my...
He's like, he's like...
Boz and Hacks and...
It's me next to Nick and both is behind him.
And then he's like, and be born white?
And we're like...
Jeez.
That was actually very funny.
You know what's crazy as humans?
Not too long ago.
like we know when we're born we quickly learn like we're on a planet there's a universe we don't
really know what the fuck's going on but we know we're on this like ball floating like there was a
time where humans didn't know what the fuck this was they didn't know this was like a planet
well dogs don't know animals don't know yeah but to well to be i don't know it's just crazy to be
a human and like just be here but like not know like your surroundings like the fact that you're
on a fucking earth and a universe
funny because I go back and forth between that like that thought every once in a while I'm like I get this I'm like minuscule feeling but then I grow out of like or not grow out of it but then I like a couple like hours later I forget about it and so like when I think about it again it doesn't hit me the same but like every once in a while I'm like oh my God like this is I'll get in thoughts like this is it's so this is so insane and like I'm like damn I am sort of like in a matrix where it's like I have to I have to show up to this job and it's like oh
I want to achieve these goals.
But I don't, I could just do whatever the fuck I want.
I could just go to Cuba, live off 50 cents a day, do drugs.
Well, you got to make more than 50 cents a day to do drugs.
You're going down a dark bathy.
Yeah, you're just saying there's.
Or you could, you know.
It's just.
Work out.
Well, no, no, because there's, you drink water.
No, no.
Eat greens.
that's the life i am going down right now
it's like that that that uh that instagram post that you see like every once every year
it's like uh suicidal man attempts takes a trip down to mexico spends all of his life's
earning on cocaine and hookers and decides to live because of how happy that made him
you don't see that i see it yeah i don't like you don't
those are getting my
algorithm is fucking hitting me up
I don't think I've seen those
I've only seen cat videos
yeah
cats food sports
crazy I didn't delete
I'm uh
I'm three months clean
off of TikTok
really damn
did it improve your
vastly improve my health
really yes
get it
I've been telling him to get it off
I want to see
I'm not as bad as what I used to be
like I don't want to look at my screen time
Seth uses Twitch like a social
media app.
Dude, I watched...
Who do you watch?
Whoever is on.
Don't say or they'll be happy.
Everybody.
You ever click on my stream?
Dude, I watch like, I watch every game.
I watch like, it's actually, I need to delete Twitch off my phone.
I watch too much.
You don't watch like Warcraft streamers and stuff?
You're watching Osmond Gold for a little while there.
No, I haven't been lately.
How do I see?
Oh, see all activity.
Screen time.
So messages, eight hours a day.
Instagram.
Damn.
Instagram five.
Oh, is that a week?
Five hours?
What is this?
It's eight hours.
I mean, you're at 13 hours already.
On Zoom.
On two apps.
Statistically, we're a week.
Zoom, meet, mail.
YouTube, nothing.
Oh, this is weekly.
Yeah, just do it.
Just do week.
I don't have, I don't have TikTok anymore.
On this, it doesn't hit my thing.
TikTok, I get four hours, 17 minutes.
No, the thing.
For the, I think it's for the week.
Yes, for the week.
I'm deleting it.
Twitter, almost four hours, Twitch.
I'll delete it.
I can't delete it though.
I love it.
What?
TikTok.
I can't get rid of it because I love it.
Like good.
Bro, this one time, and I was super embarrassed about this.
If search bass fishing on Instagram and within the fifth one, you're going to see a, a woman in a bikini fishing.
And because that was on there, it just kept feeding the algorithm on bikinis.
It's because you sat there and watched the whole thing.
It was a picture.
Was I zooming in?
Maybe.
I'm 42, man.
I'm 42, I've seen it all.
I've noticed if I stay on one TikTok or any, like, if I stay on it, watch the whole thing through.
Like, if I scroll again, it'll bring me another one of his videos or another video like that.
Like, they track every fucking second.
Yeah, they do.
So the best thing to not do is watch people's stories while you're gaming because you'll be like,
you'll be like watching a story.
Oh shit and then you go like that and next thing you know you watch every single one of your follower stories
Mm-hmm that's how it goes usually I gotta delete something
I'm on I'm on TikTok and Twitch way too. Yeah, so a lot of things are happening have you
So obviously as you guys know we have a program called Optic Nation you pay X amount of and before I raise I'm gonna raise the
the subscription at some point but you're Elon that shit yeah I'm gonna I'm gonna not getting but we have a couple of
shows that are coming out they're gonna be super good one of them is is with yours won't say the title
I don't love it, but we're remaking...
Do we're not saying there?
Wait, what?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, yeah, you can talk about that.
Yeah, so we have a show that we're doing where we're, uh, it's like, Pimp my Ride.
And this is not any fucking revolutionary idea has been done before, but we're doing it our way, uh, where we're remaking Seth's stream room and we're gonna make, remake Shotsie's mine, Hitches, whoever, whoever.
Uh, are you, you're not, you're not moving from where you live, right?
Are you moving downtown?
That's a whole other conversation.
Okay.
So hold on our conversation.
Anyway, my show is called Idiots, E-A-T-I-O-O-T-S,
and essentially it's me and two of my best friends
who also write graffiti.
Next week I'm in El Paso, Texas, my birthplace,
and we're going to be trying out different foods from there for the show.
And it's essentially a food travel vlog
with a little bit of graffiti spun into it
that is going to be an episodic series
that is going to be on Optic Nation.
You can wait until it comes out on my YouTube channel,
but I suggest that you guys do that,
and I suggest that you guys sign up.
Also, we're also filming another, uh, Obdignation, segment or a series today's first episode is called Unprocessed.
It's basically director's cuts of, uh, the process and vision episodes.
Um, myself, Charleston and Raj are sitting down and like going over like,
old episodes.
I'm looking forward to that.
That one's going to be really fun too.
Hell yeah.
Do you have any shows that you would like to do?
Uh, I want to do like, I want to do something cooking, but I have to figure out how we're
going to set up my kitchen for it.
I'd love to do like cooking shit.
Like after like, after like five.
hours of rank play instead of, you know, continuing to play that. I get off and I go make
myself dinner and I just stream that and we make something like once, twice a week that I want
to eat. Count me in. I'll be there to eat. To eat? And to be part of it, I'll be your sushi.
I'm one for one so far. The beer you tacos. That's got to be my first episode.
To this day. But the thing with the beeria tacos is it was made in the instant pot. So it's like
after you- There's nothing wrong with that. After you prep it, well, yeah, there's nothing
wrong with it. But after you prep everything, it's like you sit there and you wait.
Yeah.
So like you prep everything and then you have to blend like the peppers and shit with all the spices and then pour that in with the meat.
Let the meat simmer for like 50 minutes.
So it's like a lot of waiting.
Yeah.
That is the movie magic.
I think that you're going to have to do it and then just give me that and I'll spread it around.
Second pot.
Oh, shit.
Well, but it'll be on Twitch.
So it's like I'll do all that and then I'll just.
No, I'm saying like have it ready, prepare it.
And then you just have the one that was already made ready to be eaten.
Oh.
That's what I'm thinking.
So that's good.
I'm looking forward to that.
Anything that has food in it, I'm with it.
One of my friends, Juan Yip Kim, chef, Juan Yip Kim is one of the guys that's coming with me.
And he's going to make a massive dish of everything that we've learned in Texas.
And then we're going to have like a massive get-together for Optic where he will cook for, it's a fucking super chef.
I'm hungry.
He's going to make, you know, his own version of what he's learned.
I just start.
I just got a wave of food.
I'm walking to Chipotle immediately.
Mm.
Is there a show that you would like to do?
I think I feel like we randomly talked about this.
And it would be a show I would want to do,
but it would involve traveling and that takes away from streaming.
So I don't know.
I'd have to figure it out.
But I would be down to do stuff like kind of like what Yes Theory does,
if you know them on YouTube.
Like they'll do the whim,
they'll like travel to fucking Wimhoff's place
where like some other people go as well.
and they'll do like the ice bass.
We should do that.
They'll like spend the,
a few days and the fucking freezing cold and climb mountains.
Yeah,
yeah, yeah, yeah.
We need to do that on the main channel.
Count me in for that one.
Or,
dude,
that guy's crazy though.
There's like a,
there's like a house on the top of a mountain.
Oh,
yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I love that fucking video.
That one's good on the island, right?
The only house on that island?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yesterday he did a video like that and Ryan Treyhan did video like that.
And they're both amazing.
Stuff like that.
to where it's almost, I don't know,
like my, it's like my own little traveling show or something.
Yeah.
But the stress, dude, going to Colorado, it like,
I felt like Seth, like it stressed me out not being here, not streaming,
and then like coming back and I'm sick.
But if I was to do a show, it would be something like that.
I mean, I felt bad streaming yesterday and I got 15 shots in my cheek
and I felt guilty all day, but I couldn't open my mouth.
Yeah, tell us what happened?
Huh?
Because you're a redhead?
Yeah, so Redheads apparently, well, Redhead's,
It's a known thing. It's called the red gene.
They take more anesthesia or like just Novocaine.
They gave me lightacane, which is stronger than Novakane.
And I feel like it makes sense.
And so we take more of that to like sedate us so we don't feel what they're doing.
Which is why I would take more of anything.
It doesn't matter what it is.
So they came in, gave me four shots all in like the same place, and then waited 15 minutes, came back, gave me four more, wait another 15 minutes.
And they were like, do you feel this?
And I'm like, yeah, I still feel it.
And then they came back, gave me four more.
And then, like, I mean, there's no way.
He was like, there's no way you're feeling it after this.
And I didn't.
But this whole side of my face, my chin was like, this was all numb for like five to six hours after.
And then once I started coming off the numbing, I started feeling where they were giving me the shots.
And I still feel it.
I can feel like a little scar.
Teeth tissue.
I don't fuck with teeth pain.
It's like a different type of.
Or nails.
Yeah, that's a bad one too.
That's so bad.
I was telling Sean Malto, who I, the eavesdrop podcast is going to be live this week with him.
I was telling him how in Mexico and Juarez, when I was skating as a kid, I was like eight years old.
And I was skating barefooted.
And I remember clearly getting off the skateboard.
And when I landed, my toe went forward and it peeled my nails.
See?
See that?
That feeling only happens with nails and teeth.
E.
You get the hippie-jibis.
Like my girl bought a teeth cleaner thing
Like one of those like
Spiky things that you really get in there
She's like let me clean your teeth
I'm like fuck no
Like hitting just the fact of even maybe accidentally
Hitting a nerve or something
I can't do that
Or a cavity
I don't have any cavities
I don't fuck with teeth paint
This whole side of my mouth is done
I go back next Tuesday to do my lower left
And I only have one more cavity up here
I can't wait to replace all my teeth
You're gonna replace them?
It would be pearly, white.
I have, I have like a perfect bottom,
but my top is just fucking gapy as shit.
You don't know gap?
It's not gapy at all.
Can you put your tongue in it?
Well, it's just my front two teeth.
No, I need, I have.
Do you think your gap's bigger of mine?
Yeah.
Damn.
What do we doing here?
Imagine that people are just listening.
I do.
I do kind of like the look of fake teeth, though.
Wait, so let's finish out this,
this Gamer say $45 million price.
Yeah.
That was like 20 minutes ago.
I completely forgot about that.
$45 million in price purse.
Is that across all of them, Matt?
Has to be.
Is it evenly split?
Who's playing PubG Mobile?
A lot of people.
How are more people playing PUBG mobile than Halo Infinite?
Everyone has a phone.
Yeah, but like it can't, it has to.
PubG itself wasn't even a fun game.
Which of you.
For my fast-paced, amazing, skilled self.
And I have coordination movement.
I'm pretty sure PubG's bigger like overseas.
Yeah, overseas.
Yeah.
It's gigantic over there.
Yeah.
Which doesn't, I mean, I don't.
You know, apparently Activision said that when Microsoft takes over the Call
Duty deal, they're shutting down Cod Mobile.
That's what I just read on Twitter.
What?
I was like, isn't that insane?
There's no way that's right.
There's no way that's right.
Because they print money on Cod Mobile.
Oh, yeah.
They print money on both games.
That's all games are about now.
The shops.
Oh, they care about.
Watch when our video game comes out.
I'm kidding.
But if we were going to do one, I would not.
What would it be like?
Listen, it would not be as complex and fun and good.
You bring it back to that.
As that drop is going to be, it's going to be a little bit more laid back.
It's going to be something like Battalion 1944.
Is it a VR?
You watch your character.
It's an idol game where you are a stoner starting up a shot.
And it's like, that's probably on Steam already.
And you make money while you sleep, so you wake up.
When I was a little kid.
Mobile games are literally like.
One of the first computer games that I've ever played was Drug Wars.
Have you ever played? Did you ever play that?
No.
You essentially get in and then there's three menu items.
And then the first one is like you go to, we'll say Texas, right?
You go to Plano and Cocaine and Plano cost less than it cost in Allen.
Are you serious?
But you buy it and then you just like try to build your kingdom.
I was like 16, 17 years old.
And I would get home and my brother, who's 10 years younger than me, would be playing that shit.
I'd be like, yo, get the fuck off that shit, Pedro.
Damn.
It makes sense.
It makes sense.
It makes a lot of sense with his dumb ass.
But yeah, that is, what would that?
Did y'all ever play, like, Clash of Clans or Clash Royale or anything like that?
Bro, those games are still pop.
Like, which one?
Clash Royal?
Clash Royal.
Clash Rlesch Clans.
What's the?
the company that makes those games?
They also made a...
Tencent?
Candy,
or King, King...
I can't remember.
Activision owns it.
That's all I know.
You want me to pull it up right now?
Activision owns...
Tencent and Super Cell.
Supercell.
Supercell.
Who owns Candy Crush, Matt?
Candy Crush.
That's what I was...
I used to go on.
I know.
Act was the most of the name.
It was a King Gaming or some shit like that?
Kim Game.
King Gaming?
I got to like a level thousand.
You wish up, partner.
You anxious over there?
Oh, I have restless leg syndrome, according to 23 and me.
And 23 and me, as I was saying, that we never got to finish this.
I thought of your answers.
I have currently living today.
I have 10 relatives in the Philippines.
I have three relatives in Germany, and I have like 15 family members, long, long
distant family members in the UK.
What's your-DNA relatives?
Right here.
Look at a shit.
How do you, would you ever hit them up?
No.
Hell no.
Would that be weird?
Wait, you can't like find them, right?
No, it won't say their name.
You can reach out.
How?
Does it say their name?
Look them up on Facebook?
They look just like you, but like Philippine version?
Well, I did look Filipino already in high school.
I was part of the Flipmo squad and the Mexicans.
Me too, man.
So look, it tells you, uh, 23, um, says I have, uh, I am,
I am, how do you say it?
Irish?
No, that you're susceptible to something.
Coronary artery disease, skin cancer, melanoma, seasonal allergies right now.
Asthma?
I don't know about that one.
Near sightedness.
You can't breathe.
You just took albuterol for the first time ever.
I'm 42.
I would have known by now.
Sometimes you develop late.
Atrial fibrillation, restless legs syndrome.
Glacoma.
So just everything.
Severe acne, not true, look this fucking skin, I'm not sad.
See, it's not right?
Obstructive sleep apnea.
What a stray.
Jesus.
Did you used to be pimple face?
Damn.
Anyway, and look, I know people are like, I'm not going to give them my DNA.
They're going to store it and do something.
Who fucking cares?
They're going to puny DNA.
They're going to clone you.
Yeah, imagine how cool it would be to have two of me.
Two of you.
One's enough.
One's too many.
One's too many.
One is enough.
Fuck all of you.
I agree right back at you.
I think we've gone on long enough.
Everybody, I look forward to seeing you guys
who are coming in this weekend.
For those who weren't able to get a ticket
is the hottest ticket in town.
I do hope that next year maybe you can figure out a way
to give us a bigger venue.
Maybe we don't do it at the Eastport Stadium
and maybe we do it here.
No, we have to do it at the Eastport Stadium.
We'll do it here.
It's just, it just works.
Now it's like a staple.
Yeah, but it's like we need,
All the pros love it.
We need more seats, though.
That's the thing.
It's going to be a packed house, though.
There's more people of this show.
Racing prices is not the solution.
We need to lower prices and make it bigger.
Anyway, everybody thinks we're doing.
Get some nosebleeds.
The mezzanine.
The mezzanine lead.
It was like sweets, technically?
No.
Those were like casters and stuff.
Could you use them as a suite?
I mean, you could.
You could.
You could use it as a.
That's what we're used.
It's your suite.
If you can put a, if you, you can probably put a bed up there and call it your bedroom if you want.
It's space.
It's fair.
You can put a stove and call it a kitchen.
What else can we come up with?
You can put an outro and call it a podcast.
We'll see you guys next time.
Goodbye.
