Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to episode 226 on the Optic Podcast.
This episode is also brought to you by Cashab Hymns and Lisa.
And we'll tell you a little bit more about them later on in the podcast.
We got a couple of things to discuss.
But the main one is obviously us securing third.
No, the main one is Outdoor Boy steps away from YouTube because he got too famous.
Sorry, Jen.
This guy had some of the best content YouTube's ever seen.
I'm surprised at the amount of people that watched him that weren't like outdoors.
people. Like you watch it.
Did you watch a lot of it?
No. Well, I feel like...
It's impossible to...
Well, the thing is, I feel like so many people like to watch it because so many people
want to be outdoorsy like that, but they just don't know how to do it or where to start.
Like, so they watch him to like vicariously live through him and maybe try to learn some
shit.
Listen, this September...
Because Zinni watched him religiously, and I know Zinni is not an outdoorsman.
I mean, I would like...
So why did you...
Why did you watch him?
Like what was...
Because it was so cool to see like how much knowledge he had
and what he was able to do
and how he could just look at berries and say
you can't eat that but you can eat that.
And then he's building tents six feet under snow.
Like it was just...
And we just kind of...
Amazing to see.
Like it's just a different world.
Yeah.
But it is kind of crazy how he just like cut it
because, I mean, obviously he was probably doing very well.
He said he made...
He gained 12.
million subs in 18 months. Yeah, that's nuts. My thing is, and look, obviously fan, right?
Anything that's outdoors, fan. My thing was this is like, you felt that now at 18 mil? How many
subs met? At 15 mil, but you weren't, you weren't feeling this way. At 5 mil? At 10 mil?
It was so fast. Did you just, he gained 12 million subs and what was it? 18 months.
18 months. And he said because of like TikTok and people like reposting his stuff.
He got 4 billion views throughout the year or something.
I mean, he probably can't walk around in public.
He's a tall dude.
He looks very, he stands out.
Because it's not just his, like YouTube views, but like Zinny just said, on TikTok,
like you get this guy, regardless of what your four you pages, you're getting him at some
point.
Like, you know this guy.
And TikTok, I feel like TikTok is that, like, driver to just another level of people
knowing who you are.
Like, he probably can't walk a.
around in public. He said people were starting to try contacting his family and him and I'm sure it got
overwhelming. But he said he'll still be around in the sense. I think he's going to help his kids
with their YouTube channels. He said he might post like a bunch of videos at the end of the year
because he has some like half finished. And I'm sure there's no way he's like done. I doubt he's
going to do it as consistently, but I'm sure this guy is going to put out a video every now and then
because this has to be is like there's no way he doesn't love this stuff. He obviously loves it.
So I don't think it's just going to completely stop forever.
Yeah.
But I'm sure it's going to be a pretty.
Listen, it's a very, very, very, very mature.
Even at his age, it's a very mature decision to make for the well-being of your family.
Because you're sort of saying, all right, this revenue source is no longer going to be a thing for me.
Of course, the recurring revenue that he's going to continue to accumulate.
I mean, he's getting 10, 12, 10, 7.
Like this channel, honestly, he's going to shut it down completely.
So, again, I'm happy for him that he made that decision, especially because it has to do with family and the safety of his family and the comfort of his, you know, walking around in your own skin, right?
So, you know, sad to see him go, but at the same time, I'm very, very happy that he gets a chance to do this.
It's one of my favorite ones out there.
Men with Pot is a good one.
Martine, Juillard, is another one that I watch.
Mav, it's all on you now.
Mav.
Mav, we're looking at you now.
That boy, Mav.
Mab is actually, I just saw that he's spending five days in the Amazon with no resources.
Couldn't do that.
Mosquitoes, the size of-of-his mind.
Fuck the mosquitoes.
The spiders.
Oh, I couldn't do it.
I'm not worried about the snakes.
Snakes don't really scare me.
I mean, obviously, if you, like, see a snake and you know it's a poisonous snake, that would scare the fuck out of me.
I'd be way more afraid of those just hairy tarantulas just crawling on you at night.
Oh.
You're sleeping just on the tip of your tail.
I mean, it's right here.
It's right there.
You wake up in the middle of night.
You look down.
You just see two beating eyes on your chest and they're like actually kind of big.
I think I'd throw up.
Oh.
See, I can't throw.
The only thing I can throw off of is like seeing other people throw up.
Yeah, me too.
Or too many old fashions.
Or too many old fashions.
That'll get you too.
That always gets me.
I've seen you in your zone, your element.
Oh.
All right.
But we do.
We do have Dreamhack this weekend.
Yes, we do.
Obviously, just wanted to mention.
Outdoor boys stepping away.
But big tournament for us this weekend.
We have some bangers in the first round for at least the Call of Duty side.
But obviously, Halo is in the same building.
Counterstrikes in the same building.
It's basically a gamer's dream.
Dream hack.
I mean, you have some of these incredible esports.
You have activations.
I can't wait.
We got a couple of meeting greets.
It's going to be dope, man.
I can't wait.
Our first round matchup is a matchup that we literally just saw.
We played Toronto again this time on land.
Yep.
on Friday.
And I'm excited, man.
I think we bounced back in a big way
against a big choke against L.A.G,
which everybody rightfully so was pretty upset with
because I think that was an unacceptable loss.
But the bounce back against Ultra is all that matters now.
Cinema.
They played great.
Perfect God.
Yeah.
I wasn't upset.
Let the record be known.
Against L.A.G?
Yeah.
Come on, brother.
Dude, I know.
We were all upset.
No, no, no.
Listen, they're so good that they overheated.
That's all that happened.
They were so good they got a little bit of confidence
and against the pro team, you're going to get punished
because they're a pro team.
So any mistake is going to be used against you
in the court of law.
And that's what happened.
I mean, that rewind.
It was bad.
Yeah, but the good thing is,
and I know people probably hate hearing this stuff,
losing is learning, all that.
Yeah.
That's a situation where you lose that P4 rotation,
in the back of their minds on P4s now,
they're like, we need to secure this spawn by all means necessary.
They're playing it tight.
Because they saw it happen. Because it happens in scrims and it's like, oh, whatever, we've got to hold the spawn.
It happens in a match and you lose it in a big way.
It changes.
Now it's always there.
And it's like a serious.
Hopefully it was a good thing.
Yeah.
No, 100%.
Hopefully those P4s are real tight now.
And listen, for anybody that says, Hex doesn't care about winning anymore.
Listen, I've been here for 20 years.
I'm going to be here for 60 more, okay?
One fucking match in the history of what?
60 more.
You're going to a 105?
Amen.
Man.
It's going to be a chip at some point.
There's going to be a chip right here.
1.30.
Right here.
I might not even be in this body.
You'd do it?
Yeah, I would do anything.
That sci-fi shit, you're just, they upload your consciousness to a computer chip and
you're Jarvis at one point.
You would have to do it, but you're going through the internet way?
You just want to die then.
I don't know who you're looking at.
We can't add to this combo.
This is a whole different one-shot.
One-shot.
One-shot.
Don't let it slip.
I want no chip to give me.
me an extra 30 years.
For what?
I've seen everything.
No, I'm going to get worse.
No, because when you're hypothetically 130, the shit that they're going to be coming out
with is going to blow your mind.
You're telling me that the compounds.
I'm just a veggie.
The compound of your cash, like, it's only going to get better and better.
Yeah, but I'm going to be in a veggie.
I'm going to be done.
No, because they're going to transfer your consciousness to another dude.
No, see.
Wait, but what happens there when you have to go, when you have to go to the bathroom and you have
to hold somebody else's weeness?
So you're saying, oh, man, we're going crazy.
That is weird.
I got to wipe somebody else's ass at that point.
We're going to a different host.
Holy shit, I didn't think about it at that point.
I was thinking that.
I was thinking it's still you.
You put a chip in and you just live longer.
That's the only thing I was saying.
No, no, no, no.
It's a different host at this point.
Yeah.
I need a new body.
Keep my brain.
Give me a new body.
Give me the same body.
There's just going to be synthetic like bodies made, boom.
Yeah.
New body.
Yeah.
Too much abs on that one.
Maybe reduce an inch up for that thing.
Holy shit.
Reduce an inch.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, I have trouble, too.
We have...
It touches the water.
This is our first time since CDL began that we have two streams going at the same time.
So we have an Alpha T, Alpha stream and Bravo stream.
I actually like it.
I actually like it.
I don't like the schedule.
See, selfishly, they should have scheduled us and the Heretics Rocker match at the same time
because I kind of wanted to watch Phase Cloud 9.
Because that has very big implications for Cloud 9.
I mean, so does the rocker match.
Yeah, I was going to say it also.
Yeah, but phase cloud nine, I don't know.
Either way, we're going to have to pick between some banger matches.
The beauty for you is that you're not going to have to sweep swap.
Riley's going to do it for you as you're watching us.
So you're going to get all the coverage that you need.
Just tune in and get ready to have something because this is going to be a banger of a Friday.
Oh, yeah.
100%.
We're getting right into it.
And that's what people are questioning.
What's the watch party going to look like because there's two streams?
Obviously, we're going to pick the.
the match that's just better.
Yep.
For the most part.
But the thing that gets weird is like, like Zinney said,
the Miami-Minnesota match and the Faze Cloud 9 match,
both of those are like huge for points.
Like if they lose, I mean, they're pretty much fucked.
Well, it's like, Chad, I'll tell you guys right now.
We're watching Thieves versus Surge.
Yeah, 100%.
That was our last grand final matchup.
And I think in a best of five,
Surge has a pretty good chance to beat Thieves.
Now, I picked Thieves officially in my pick-ams.
But I would not be shocked to see Serge beat him in a best of five.
Best of seven, where thieves have a heavy veto advantage, is very different.
But a best of five straight up, Serge can win that.
And then, of course, we're watching Us versus Ultra.
That's the two priorities.
And, of course, things will go from there.
Well, those are the two matches on Alpha.
It's them and then us.
And then Bravo is Phase C9.
Erritics Rocker.
Yep.
And then the elimination round.
We're going to make sure we're watching the best matches
And then if there's any downtime or in between maps
We might not be doing mini games
It might be right to the other match
No, no, there's probably going to...
I think we'll do some.
We've got to get some of our mini games in, of course.
We love them.
But yeah, it's going to be crazy.
Also, I mean, we've been saying it all week last week
But I mean, bro, after this, after this major
We've got a month off and then champs
and then another month off, the NWC.
we are in the home stretch at this point, which is bittersweet.
Dude, I'm not sure if I'm just like, does this not feel like the quickest it's ever been for us?
This has been the quickest season by far for me.
I don't understand how it happened.
I feel like we blinked.
And I know we've watched a lot of matches, but comparatively, I just feel like this one flew by.
Well, we have one less tournament, no?
Yeah, but.
What was that?
What did they say on shooting the other day?
Yeah, we went from five majors.
This time last year it was major three.
Major three.
That's what I'm saying.
from five majors to four plus EWC
where last year was five plus EWC.
Crazy.
Back in the day it was fucking 14 tournaments a year.
They just got compressed so much this year.
Like these past two splits,
there was no weekend off.
Players got home on Monday from the event
and then they had matches on Friday.
It's like I feel like everything just got shrunk down
and then they took a major away.
They did the two minors.
So that like that five week online split
just made it feel different times.
time-wise. I don't know. This season flew by, though. We need a, we need a different format next
year, for sure. And hopefully we get it. Yeah. Because I'm not sure how many times I can sit here,
we can sit here, and talk about this format. I mean, the land league's not going to happen,
but at the very least, I'm not sure. I'm not sure. How many people need to ask for a 16-team league,
some type of relegation system, challengers get through the open bracket?
Oh, the best system in the world, do you mean?
We should have never tried to fix an equation that was never wrong in the first place.
And now we want it back.
Where you can come from Open Bracket, potentially play one of your favorite proteins to take them out.
Now you're on the main stage.
I mean, look at my biggest example was always EUnited in IW.
Like Alec Pierce, Pristini, that squad came from.
They used to piss me off.
I always say E6.
E6 is a good one too.
General.
Jordon.
Casted spells.
Jordan, man.
Yeah.
But yeah, the seasons flew by.
I believe right now
These standings are still
What are you going to say?
I just, I want to see the point distribution
Because I still don't know it
For like where you finish in a major
For how many points you get
I think I saw all the implications for us
And I don't remember up the top of my head
Rocker has to get probably what top four
If we win the first round matchup
We're guaranteed
Not not quite
But Rocker or Cloud 9 would have to either
Win or play second or something
there's a tweet that says them. I don't want to butcher them.
But essentially, as long as we don't go out there and bottle it, we should be okay.
Let's knock on some wood.
Knock on some wood real quick.
And then, of course, Cloud 9 and Rocker would have to play great as well.
And they have tough first-round matchups.
I mean, C-9 has to play phase round one.
Rocker has to play Miami round one.
And those are two.
And we play Toronto.
Very strong teams.
Yeah, I mean, we're at the point where all these matches are difficult.
And every team is like, I mean, Cloud 9 is like good.
now. They're like a good, solid
team. Minnesota,
I don't think they could, I don't think they
can win the tournament, obviously. I feel like they could just
pop out of nowhere and just become godlike.
You never know. We definitely, if we win that
first round matchup, a lot of stress will be alleviated.
But also, we're eight seed right now, but we're only, what,
45 points away from Carolina. And if we
could steal that six seed and not
have to play a thieves or phase round one at
champs, that would be massive. And one at the event
is what? How many points 10?
A little more than that. I say, you probably get 20.
25. If you get top six, I think it's 25 or 20 maybe.
That's why I want to see the point breakdown.
Yes. So if you get, I just can't wait to see the venue.
Fifth, 30? I cannot wait to see the venue.
So we need both of them to pretty much stay in their fifth place.
I'm going to tell you what I can't wait for.
I can't wait for whoever staying at the Omni Hotel to go get the Wevo's Ranchettos from Texas Spice down in the lobby to the left.
Is it that for third?
I went there with you, but I didn't try that.
Snoose, dude.
It was one of my favorites, and then I think they switched it up a little bit,
but it still delivered the same pack of punch.
Isn't that the worst?
One of your favorite restaurants changes something that you love?
Or there's a different chef and you go there, you're excited,
and it's a different chef for the night and you leave.
You leave.
You spit on the floor and you leave.
But so Minnesota needs to get at least fourth,
and they would tie us, and we would have to get double-rounded,
and then if they do get top four, then it gets hairy.
Oh yeah, I'm tripping because there's no more online matches.
Yeah.
So they got a- This is it.
This is it.
Last chance.
So it's going to be a fun weekend, man.
We've got this.
We've got Halo.
It's going to be fun, but a little stressful.
And I'm looking forward to it.
This is the venue looks insane.
It's literally like old school MLG vibes.
It's the concessions, the sponsor booths.
Everything's in the same area.
Right?
You got the main stage.
You got the challengers pit.
You've got the Challenger side stage.
You have the watch party areas.
You have scuff.
Whatever.
It's going to be insane.
Yeah, it's going to be a fun weekend.
I just hope they surprise us with the banners.
If they, if Adam puts the banners in, like the hall, I'll be sick.
There's no way because there's other events.
Yeah, that's all your events.
Unless they did like one caught on one side, HAL on one side.
Because Counterstrikes like, it counterstrikes like not even a part of the hall.
It's like over the other side.
Yeah.
If I remember the event correctly, there's like a big thing.
theaters like stadium style seating and that's on like the far left side yeah and then there's
like an actual convention hall where we're at car or halo's at some other games i think brawl
stars geogessor when they say team booths what are they talking about there matt just like
just uh the people there because our booth is on the main hall so make sure that you stop by
because we have exclusive stuff that's going to be appearing there i'm going to take some stuff out
the vault I'm going to bring it there it's going to be fire there's going to be obviously some
exclusive shit specifically for for for dream hack I'm I'm hype about events always been hype about
events I'm hyped that I have this scooter to roll around this massive massive compound there you
go that's a there and right there there's our booth right there point it Matt point at it
go to the entrance I put that number 11 I think just look at use use the use the use the
But we're doing a couple activations.
We're doing a Halo 1v1 on Friday.
That's going to be, we're probably going to get slammed.
Are we, am I playing in that?
Yeah.
Is that just free money?
If you're playing against me in Halo, it's just free.
I haven't played Halo on a long, we're going to get shit on.
She was real happy about that.
You're not going to get shit on.
You don't think so?
No, man, you're just like,
Go ahead.
You're way better at Halo than we are.
That's right.
Like, you beat me 10 to zero on that 1V1.
That was embarrassing.
I did.
Everyone's like, Zinn.
You dropped the goose.
Yeah, in the Haley video we did.
Listen, just know that I'm literally handing out there free cash.
So if you get me, know that I am going to hook you up.
That's- Enough.
But if you run into me and ranked, you're getting fucked up, huh?
That's Nick's champs.
Oh, yeah.
Those 1V-1s?
Nick can't lose because they'll talk shit to Nick.
He can't come in lacking.
I mean, he ain't going to lose, though.
But we've got that Friday.
Yeah.
Potential meet, I mean, not potential meeting greet.
We have a meet and greet.
We don't know if it's Friday or Saturday yet.
So we'll be doing one of those.
And then we have the COD-1V-1s on the.
Sunday. Championship Sunday, Cod 1V1s. Yes. Nice. So we've got a bunch of stuff going on. Crazy,
crazy weekend. It's going to be a good time. Pit run at the optic booth. Winning time gets a free scuff
controller. Just like that. Yeah, we got to do it. Like we got to set our times. Why is that
could be good? Pit time. But so they can race against us. What is it pit run? Where you throw,
where you run around shooting like a, like shoot house in Call 34. Oh, like we did that video.
Oh, okay, okay. But it's not that right, Matt? It's an actual like people.
paintball guns and shit?
Like, people actually have, like,
guns in the venue.
I'm just kidding.
Good one, man.
Thanks.
Yeah, so it's going to be good, man.
I love pit runs.
Oh, like, they're going to play it in the game.
In game.
I thought there was going to be, like, paint balls or something.
Yeah.
That would be fire.
That would be sick, though, maybe next year.
What is that?
Coinbase reverses $20 million ransom demand
by putting 20 million bounty on the thieves.
Oh, buddy, delete that app.
Oh, you want to play around?
All right.
They got checking statements, all that.
I need to get rid of it.
Oh, yeah, I got rid of my Coinbase.
Oh, yeah.
Actually?
Yeah.
After this?
Yes.
I don't, I'm not in like crypto anymore, so I just got rid of it.
This is what I would do.
This reminds me of the, of the movie of, what's his name, Braveheart guy?
Mel Gibson.
Mel Gibson, where they kidnap his kid, and they're like, give us 20.
He said, I am giving somebody else.
40 to bring you in alive so that I can kill you.
What a movie.
What's it called Ransom?
Yeah, the movie's called Ransom.
So good.
Oh, I thought you were saying Braveheart.
No, no, no, no.
Oh, I haven't seen this.
Braveheart, you should watch Ransom.
It's good.
It's really good.
Damn.
He reversed the $20 million.
Yeah, so CoinBridge refuses $20 million demand from cyber thieves
and says it will reimburse anyone affected by the attacks
and it will be using $20 million of the thieves demand
it's a reward leading to their arrest,
according to the company's CEO,
Brian Armstrong.
Less than 1% of the coin base this monthly after views were affected.
Oh,
you're lucky to make a coin.
And I'm going to just saying you the...
If one of you was the thief,
and I knew, I'm...
Yippee!
I know who it was.
Where are we going?
Wittdrawing.
$20 mil.
We split it.
I serve a little bit of time.
Exactly.
It's no problem.
Out, dell?
What?
Serving time?
I'll come out.
But yeah, I didn't even, like,
read about this, but...
All right. Well, wait, so, Matt, can you explain this? Do you know, instead of...
So there's like, what, a $20 million breach?
This podcast is brought to you by prize picks, ladies and gentlemen.
We're about to put some picks in for you guys.
We've got DreamHack coming up this weekend.
No picks on our match.
What?
No picks on our match. That's the only rule.
Yeah.
Okay. No juju. We're not putting any juju on our match.
No, that's true.
That's actually a good call.
That's actually a good call.
I will say though I was I can I couldn't wait to start doing this thing again I missed it last time like the whole entire season I was back there doing it on my own quietly but this is my favorite shit to do because I'm so good at it honestly I'm not gonna I like search a lot for these yeah I like search like do map two real quick let me go first oh yo that's a good call because like right here I'm going draza over or more than six okay wait hold on let's I like that can't say over right here I'm going draza more than six where's draws that at
Drazilla, that's a good pick.
I mean, Draza versus Cloud 9.
Draza's been grinding S&D every night on stream.
So I think that's a pretty solid pick.
And he's an AR, so he's going to be just waiting like a trapdoor spider.
I might even.
I like a half over six.
I like when a player is at five and a half.
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
That's what I'm saying.
Can we put a time out real quick?
Why are we all the way down here?
Let's just go from the top to the bottom.
But he wants this specific match.
Give him Spart more than five and a lot.
Oh, gotcha.
Matt, Craig, give that man more.
Let's go more than SPART.
Because I'm not going to lie.
If you're a pro player and you're not getting over five and a half in search, you're costing.
Well, I might tail that, honestly.
I might also go with that same pick on SPART.
Honestly, I'm locking that in.
That's all I want.
Done.
That's all you want?
Method's picks right there, draw the SPART.
Okay, Hector, who you got?
Well, go to our team.
Go to our team.
No, no, no.
And you can change the map one, map three.
I dislike search.
I'm going to stick with you on that.
I think we should all stick on that.
That way we can all be cheering when we win.
Okay, so go to our team.
I am going to do, I want Nero less.
Damn.
Beans.
Nero's pop off.
Beans.
Less.
Okay.
Damn.
Ben Beans going for less.
No beat.
Yeah, I don't know if I agree with the Nero pick, though, because they're probably going to play a rewind search.
And he's going to be out.
They're coming through those doors, knifing people sliding around.
You guys don't know how good I am.
You got to understand.
Okay.
He's got a feeling.
Listen, I got a feeling.
He's got a feeling.
Let's roll with it.
All right.
So that's Hector's picks.
Let me get, hmm.
Let me get medals.
Medals more.
Okay.
I like that.
And let me get, dude, super at seven and a half.
I'm not taking that.
Let me get Kenny at more than six and a half.
After that 11.0.
That's a flawless 11.0.
After that 11 and O masterclass, Kenny's coming in shooting Ken Dog.
I mean, Rewind did seem like he was super comfortable in it, so.
100%.
That's my two.
All right, what about you, Money Biscuit?
Let me get that super lock map two.
Damn, you're going for the seven and a half, super duper lock.
No, it's five and a half.
Super?
No, he's seven and a half.
Or not super.
I'm in, uh, I'm in, uh, Spart.
Oh, okay.
Let's get that, Spark.
Five and a half.
So you're tailing it.
I was going to tail on it.
And then let me go, uh,
Go to Map 1.
Yo, nobody's taking Simp the Pamp.
Let me get Envoy over.
No, no, more, more.
He's mixing it matching.
Envoy more.
Say, more.
Oh, Envoy more, my bad.
And then let me go to Map 3.
Or, yeah, Map 3.
Control, okay, Marks getting active.
He's throwing more than two here.
Marksian active.
Give me a booze and more.
Who!
Verse thieves.
Okay.
Vers the best control team in the world.
He can give me 21.
Yeah.
I believe so.
Funny one.
Actually, let me scroll down a little bit, Matt.
Oh, he's going for a four leg.
No, no, no.
Okay.
I just want to scroll through and see.
Actually, matter of fact, I lied.
Let me get that Super Moore Map 3 up.
And then you could take out the abusa.
Okay.
And that's mine.
You stand on the tripod.
Okay.

He needs glasses.
You need glasses.
2020.
I'm still 20, 20.
in one eye and the other one.
Like if I'm scrolling my phone in bed and I'm laying down looking at my phone,
it's like blurry in one eye, so I have to close that eye and that perfect vision.
A monocle?
I mean, if you're blurry in one eye, you don't need glasses.
You need a monicle, brother.
Hey, you, give me back, my friend.
You know what I want.
Don't give it to him, scum.

Lisa came on at the perfect time because I actually was looking to upgrade my mattress.
I've been sleeping on a queen for a very long time.

So got myself a Lisa mattress.
I like, I like them a little more soft.
Some people like them firm.
They like to sleep on cardboard.
I like to have a little bit of softness.
I like to sink in a little bit.
So a lot of space now in my room.
A lot of space for sleep.
A lot of space for comfort.
All thanks to Lisa.
If you have had the same mattress for a long time, or if you're a single man that's
looking to upgrade.
I'm speaking from experience.

Remember, no matter who you are,
there's a Lisa just for you.
So it was like a data breach.
Yeah.
Oh, gotcha. Okay.
I mean, Brian Armstrong didn't give a fuck.
He's like, what? You got to release other people's information out there?
Fucking do it.
But I'm going to use $20 million to come after you, but I don't give a fuck
do it.
Imagine being able to do that.
You want to put 20 on our heads.
We're going to put 20 on yours, buddy.
No, but the thing is, it's not his personal information.
It's somebody else's.
They're saying, if you don't give us 20, we're going to release Ambos's fucking
sex and Zinny's information.
And then this guy says, I don't give a fuck.
I'll give 20 to find you.
But go ahead, do what you got to do?
What the fuck?
No.
That's insane, man.
That is good.
But, you know, I like the gangster move.
I do.
It'd be so easy.
He'd literally just ask you for your coinbase link and just 25 million.
What do you say?
If you were the one that gave him the information,
it'd be as easy as just sending that guy your coinbase link
and he just 25 million.
Right from the back end.
Yippie do, yippie da.
Yeah, man.
Imagine you just wake up one day and there's 1.6 in your account just out of nowhere.
1.6.
Yeah?
That'd be great.
That'd be great.
That'd be awesome.
I do anything.
I just want to meet some blacked-out billionaire and be like, hey, you want a bill?
I do.
That's what I'm open for.
Honda has parted ways with Team Liquid after Rainbow Six player made a bomb joke after losing
to a Japanese team, C.A.G. Osaka.
I saw this.
I talked about it on stream yesterday.
What are your thoughts?
I didn't see it.
Yeah, I didn't see it either.
Click on that real quick.
Let me give you guys the brief here.
the brief here.
This was unfortunate, but I respect Liquid for standing by the player
because he meant no malice.
Like, their...
Okay, yes, continue to finish, sorry, sorry.
Their statement was like, it was not malicious, it was not intentional.
Like, and everyone's vouching this because like the nicest kid,
like he means no harm to anybody.
And they were like, listen, this is tragic.
We believe in accountability, but this player truly,
didn't mean to do this. So I do respect them standing by the player. Yeah. What I'll say,
I mean, was it like a bad joke though? Yeah, it was like he posted like a like a Hiroshima
bombing. Like we got nuked. This is essentially what he said like we got we got destroyed. Right.
That's what he said. Yeah. So he said man, we got nuked and then put a picture a gift. I'm assuming I didn't
go super into it because I had like right off the top without doing any research. I said I feel bad for
the team right. Obviously because of of some dude. Imagine you're Victor Guz.
since, right, legend, or your Steve Aronset also legend, the co-CEos of Team Liquid, and you're, you know, you're out there walking your dog or you're out there having lunch and all of a sudden it's like, yo, Honda's walking away because, you know, D.S. Lucas did this. And then you have to take into account, which I did yesterday in my stream, is that this guy's from Brazil. If you're not from the United States or from Japan, unless you learn world history or world history is being taught in your school.
you don't really know about Pearl Harbor or the consequences came after that.
So for him to use you something, that could have been just based on ignorance and just him
using something random that happened to be the worst luck that you pick.
Like he might not even know that that meme was what it was.
Correct.
How old is this kid, you know what I'm saying?
Or that gives you.
Yeah.
I saw stuff that comes into play, but I do feel bad for the org, right?
Like, you know, this is money that's used to pay the players or pay for travel and all this
stuff and for the whole team to suffer.
Ah, so I'm, so he searched for an explosion gift using generic keywords to express how his team blew up during their loss.
Ah, that's tough.
Yeah.
So that's like just, I mean, yeah, if he doesn't, if he doesn't know about it, that's unfortunate.
Yesterday I took the, the, the strong, not stands of being team friendly and how it affects the entire organization because what else can I do for my perspective?
But this morning, I was like, wait a minute, man.
Like, if this kid's from Brazil, how the, like, and they don't teach that in school.
Like I didn't learn about Pearl Harbor or, or Hiroshima or Nagasaki in Mexico growing up in Mexico.
I didn't learn that until eighth grade when I came here.
I mean, that guy, dude, probably shit himself, bro.
Losing the team of Honda sponsorship?
Oh, my God.
I would be pissing down my leg.
Yeah.
Damn.
Poor kid.
Because you'd have to deal with me.
I mean.
You?
You don't want to have to deal with me.
You don't want this, kid.
You don't want this.
And luckily you're on one leg right now.
So right now it'll be, you know what I'm saying?
Easy pickets?
I got a good reach if I grab a hold of you.
No, but that does suck, man.
It's one thing it was like malicious or he meant to do something, but he meant no ill will.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's reality, man.
Honda's like, oh, well, got a blast.
But I feel like lately, like cancel stuff like that.
I haven't seen as much.
Maybe I'm just not on the internet as much, but I haven't seen as much like cancel culture on Twitter and stuff.
Yeah.
That I agree with.
X, sorry.
Yeah, that I agree with, and somebody in the chat mentioned it yesterday, too, that's like, you know, everybody's soft nowadays.
And although I believe that's fucking true, in this case scenario, like, it was a very, very traumatic event that happened to the great country of Japan, which has the greatest city in the world by the name of Tokyo.
I still can't wait to go.
I can't wait to go either.
Eventually, at some point.
We should just mark it down on a calendar right now and just book it.
It's you that's bullshitting.
You know, I've texted you three.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Like literally Jude and Liv said you should go and then you should go with them and then we'll just go to what we got to do.
And I'm like, that's perfect because you guys don't eat fucking sushi or good food.
We do the omacases and the fish and.
Okay.
Oh, brother.
Bro, we do have to go to KFC though, 100%.
You got to try.
Bro, I know what you're thinking.
I know what you're thinking, but you have to try this KFC.
They said 7-Eleven has these egg sandwiches that are like on the fluffy white bread.
Yes.
And then with the fruit sandwiches?
Like, it's like the, it looks like the softest.
white bread ever.
Yeah.
It's just in there.
You can get ramen.
They have like ramen stations and a gas station.
Like a Taylor ham sandwich will catch up.
What does it do?
I don't know about it.
No ketchup to the roof of your mouth.
Because like gas stations here.
The wonder.
Yeah.
The wonder.
Gas stations here.
You can get like you can get a meal from a gas station but you might get the
bloop, blue,
bleep,
oh yeah.
But there it's like.
Yes.
It's like a dining experience at their like gas stations.
Yes.
Kenny did a really, really good vlog, a good Tokyo vlog.
I haven't released mine.
having a chance to sit down and edit it.
But boy, I tell you, and Japan owns, or a Japanese company owns all 7-Elevens, right?
Like, that's a thing.
But the way that they treat theirs there is an experience to be had and we should have it.
What's up with Kai?
Kai is scrapping his future streamer university plans amid hate.
Why was he getting hate?
Yeah, people are like basically saying, like, it's because they'll hate on everything.
Yeah, like, why are people that have a million followers getting in?
and then there's people getting mad that he didn't pick certain part of his friend group to get.
It's just too much.
Hold on.
Press play so that we can get the true understanding.
Because I, too, feel like I...
I'm never helping no one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They find you.
I mean, he's spending all this money trying to help some people on this.
It's impossible.
I mean, it's a cool idea, too.
It's like get a bunch of streamers in one place.
They network, they make great content.
They have professors like Kson.
Oh, this is going to be hilarious.
Of what?
I don't know what it is because they just have like, I don't know.
But some streamers are professors.
Like I think like Duke and some of the bigger guys, they're professors.
Then you have 150 streamers as students.
Should I have signed up to be a lot?
professor of...
Yeah, you guys should have.
Call of duty professor, Cod 101.
Rotate at 10.
Don't OE on rotation.
I could teach some Cod.
Yes.
That'd be fire.
This is how you...
No, no, I can't do it.
But shouts out Codd, the idea is dope as hell.
But, I mean, he's going to get backlash.
No matter what he does.
He's so big, like, he's going to get hate for anything.
If he says, I like pancakes, they're going to say,
so you hate waffles?
Yeah.
It's just the way of the road.
That's just how it be.
Not for real.
Way the road.
It's tough.
You hate avocados because you don't want it in your cereal?
I mean, he's doing these innovative ideas.
Like, nobody's doing it like him.
Yeah.
It's just going to get hate.
It's hilarious.
Dude, I hate people.
I hate people.
I just hate people like that.
I just literally hate them.
But, again, there's so many people that are saying negative things,
but then there's probably 10 to 1 saying positive things.
So it's always, the loudest are always the haters.
though.
Yeah.
Well,
because a lot of the time,
the people who are thinking
positively don't even comment on it.
Like,
you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, yeah.
They just...
Like, it's just,
like, oh, that's a dope idea.
And then they move forward.
They're not leaving comments
all the time saying,
this sucks or some people
like this is great,
but a lot of people that think positively
or are impartial,
they just don't say anything.
Yeah.
The lurkers.
Lurkers rule the world, man.
Shouts out all the lurkers out there,
but if you want to type in chat,
maybe fine.
Well, hopefully,
hopefully he keeps doing it
despite what's going on
because I do think
that's such an awesome opportunity for a lot of
upcoming streamers. I say don't do it.
Oh yeah, I was watching him like whenever he was
I was watching him when he was like unveiling names and shit,
people are going crazy. I mean, as they should,
it's a huge opportunity. I saw Chicklet
made it in there. Shout out my man, chicklet. People were
going nuts.
I mean, they were going crazy
so. Shouts out Kaidman.
Always pressing the game.
Yeah, you guys watched it last week.
That, uh, his announcement video
for the Harry Potter style was
ballistic. Yeah. So crazy.
That had to have been, how much, Matt?
How much does a commercial like that cost, do you think?
I asked Roger this off stream, I think.
And he told me...
Like $20?
75K.
75 to 120, I would say, too.
Yeah, something like that.
He said like probably 60 to 80, I think, is what Rod said.
I don't want to put...
Roger, you over there?
How much money do you think it cost to do...
The Kaiser-N-T-Hare-Hare-Pater thing.
All right, Roger's adding equations to it.
Hold on.
Yeah.
It was like three to five minutes, yeah.
Yeah.
Rodshed minimum 40-50.
That's a lot of like animation and...
1-120.
CGI.
The workers you had to pay during it.
That's crazy.
I mean, it can't be cheap to have a flying car.
Yeah, flying over New York City is not...
That shit was crazy, though.
It's not cheap.
What's this AI optic podcast?
What the hell is this?
Oh, yeah.
Is it getting too good, man?
Bro, they took the meatballs clip from the major...
and they made us babies.
So it's me and you talking about meatballs as babies.
I told Matt last week that this podcast needed to be all AI, right?
Oh, is that what we were talking about?
Did you try?
And he did try.
He's saying he did try.
And here we have some.
We should have released the whole AI podcast and never said nothing.
See if they knew.
Well, we will.
We will the future.
But here we go.
Wait, this is it?
This is AI?
All right, hold on.
Pause it, pause it, pause it, pause it.
Ladies and gentlemen, we're about to go into an AI podcast.
I don't know what's being said, so take that with the grain of salt.
Cut to it right now, Matt.
Now you can tell.
No, he can tell.
Ha ha.
Yeah.
Why does Davis look real?
He sounds like he runs what's McCullough.
Why do I actually look like a robot?
You guys are ruining it because it sounds like you guys.
Go back.
Go back.
I want to hear this.
I want to hear the conversation.
Dave is looks real, though.
Like his talking looks real.
That house had one rule.
Don't wake up Nade.
Yo, what?
No one knew what.
But somehow we were doing it right.
Why do we all look toothless?
You know, your voice got deeper, though.
A true optic soldier.
We used to fight over snacks.
And now people have like sponsorship fridges.
And meal prep.
I don't know if that's growth or we just got soft.
Nah, it's gross.
Sometimes I do miss the chaos.
Waking up at 1 p.m., bumping, we made it,
Scrimming on McDonald's internet
We really thought it was top tier
Wi-Fi too
No, I used to lag out of scrums
And on YouTube
You're for yourself
I was always built for greatness
What?
The unfiltered
Never before heard stories
From the green wall vault
X files
Yo, two years from now
AI's about be crazy
Because Nate sent me a clip
of Jake Paul's podcast
or Logan Paul's podcast
Is it Logan?
Slogans I think
Yeah Logan
But he sent me a clip of like him and Mike
Yeah
And he said it was AI
I couldn't tell a difference
That AI was shitty
But that the one that I watched
You wouldn't be able to tell
Yeah that's why we did this
Because we talked about
How he sent that to us
And we're like yo Matt
Let's do this next one
Yeah that one you could tell
I was gonna like ha ha
I mean we bumping
We made it
But how are we're gonna
We made it
We made it
We made
There's going to have to be some type of like way to stop.
What am I trying to say?
I don't know.
In two years, it's going to be literally like you said, maybe less.
That where it's going to be us and it's going to be normal as shit.
You wouldn't even be able to tell.
At some point, yes, it will.
It won't be that good.
No, bro.
You got to see.
If you can't tell the difference.
I saw the video.
I watched it already.
In two years though, Mark, really?
In two years though?
All you have to do is look at their mouth.
Wait, wait two years for them to, for them to.
fine tune all of it. Yeah. At some
point, this shit has gotten so much
better like that. It's just going to get out of control.
And at that point, how do you oversee it?
Like, how do you actually know,
stop that from what people are saying?
Yeah, it's going to get, it's going to get weird.
There's going to be a weird period. You might not even
streaming in two years. It'll be AI and no one will know.
That'd be great. Could you imagine?
You know those V-tubers?
That gets so good. They can program it to read chat in real times.
And read chat? And read chat? And you're just
pool side and you're always going to remember what they're always going to remember what that one
chatter said a while ago I was like oh man thank you and yes I do how's your family doing or hey how's
that kid you told me about having is you know he's got to be six months old now and shit
it'll know everything about everyone it's going to be weird man the influx though is the thing
that's always going to get the the AI there's going to be a weird two-year period
oh yeah when it gets really good you're not going to know what's real and fake
dude how weird do you think it's going to get when we have robots in our homes when we
have a robot here.
When we have a robot,
optic droid
in the hex quarters
just picking up
everybody's fucking garbage
mopping,
everybody that has bad aim
that can't get
a simple cup of coffee
into the fucking garbage can.
Jarvis,
can I have a water?
See, I'll tell you one thing.
I'm going to be very late
to that wave.
Whenever they come out,
I'm waiting years
before I even think
about getting one of
because then goes rogue.
It goes sentient.
Tries you in your sleep.
It's done.
I'm waiting years
until those things are
Good to go.
I've seen too many movies.
What a crazy robot.
What I'm saying is if it gets to that point where it's literally undetectable and you can't tell what's real and what's not,
they're going to have to have some committee or something that's overseeing that.
Like putting limitations on these things.
Because in that moment, you're going to be going up against AI.
And then AI's going to be that, wait, no, no, you're wrong.
Human, you're wrong.
I am computed to protect you even from yourself, bitch.
and it fucking locks you up
like I don't know
you have a smart home
it starts locking you in rooms and shit
all the lights go red
I immediately activate the nanotechnology
that's coursing through my COVID shot
and then I get into a fight with it
Remember that Disney movie when we were kids
Yes
The girl with like the
I don't even know
I forget what it was called
But it was like a smart home
But it was like a girl
And she would like yeah
What?
Was it a Megan Fox?
No
No it wasn't Megan Fox
Megan Fox is a robot in one movie.
No, this was like a Disney movie, like way back in the day.
No, I remember what you're talking about.
That's it. Smart House.
Oh, Matt New.
Matt New.
Yo, let me see.
I remember this.
And then let me guess.
The husband falls in love with her.
I don't remember.
I watched this as like a five to eight year old.
Surrogate mother.
A boy tries to stop his father from dating.
By programming their computerized house to be a surrogate mother.
Yeah.
Trip, man.
Interesting.
But it was a Disney movie, I think.
Hmm.
It's insane.
And now 25 years later, it's going to happen.
It might actually happen.
I don't know, man.
You seen those smart fridges?
What?
YouTube and shit on them?
It's like a $3,000 fridge, but, like, on your app, it'll, like, scan your fridge,
and you can open up the app if you're at the store,
you forget what you have when you don't have,
you'll give you a list to the stuff in your fridge.
That's so fire, though.
It's crazy.
Makes grocery lists like obsolete.
It's just...
It's just ballistic.
Yeah.
That's crazy.
That is pretty cool.
That's a good ad to have, but...
It's just...
I always think, if this is now in 50 years,
what is going to be happening?
Five years, bro.
Not even 55 years.
Yeah.
Think about the technology jump past 10.
It's going to be crazy, bro.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's going to be crazy.
Actually, not.
Web 3?
You know,

course i'm excited for the ready player one style of vr oh yeah go in and it's like an actual
i'm gonna watch that soon you can put on like packs where you actually feel things but like obviously
don't want to get the haptic the heptic what do they call haptic uh suits yeah i think those are
already like starting to come out yeah yeah uh i was watching i was watching a uh a new show called
Mobland is by the great, great, great director, the best gangster movie director of all time.
And I know that you guys are going to be like, well, what about Scorsese?
Scorsese used the answer, but go ahead.
No, it's not, though.
Okay, listen, I love everything that Scorsese does.
But Guy Ritchie creates literally the best gangster movies, period.
He is a good storyteller, but he also has a very distinct style.
Yes, well, that's probably why.
No, that's not it, Matt.
I do feel like, and what do you think about Mobland?
Yes.
Mobland is like the least Guy Ritchie style of all of them all.
We don't know yet.
Like if you watch the gentleman or snatch or any of those, I know it's a Guy Ritchie production.
Yeah, I'm with you on that.
Mobland's a little less of that.
Yeah, it's a little more serious.
Listen, if you're not watching Mobland, I implore you to watch it.
Oh, shit, it's got the girl from 1923.
It is incredible television.
Ooh, Maeve?
Incredible.
The girl on the far right.
I think that's her.
And then that's Pierce Brosnan.
Tom Hardy's sick.
It's such a good watch.
Powerball Plus.
And Mirren is her name.
Your friends and neighbors is also gas, John Hamm on Apple is.
Oh, you finally started it?
I haven't started it.
Yeah, we're like caught up.
We're on episode seven, so we just have to watch that.
And then we're caught up.
John Hamm.
John Hamm is like a banker.
Like, that's what he's made to play.
Yeah.
No, of course.
Madman.
Yeah, now this is great.
What he's like, I feel he's in the elevator and one of the people that he just
fired, looks up at him and he says, I feel sorry for people like you, the way you treat everyone.
And he says, really?
I don't ever think about somebody like you.
Oh, hey.
Oh, shit, Olivia Mun's in it.
Yeah, it's good show.
Got to watch it.
Yeah, no, Mobbland, dude.
Mobland is gangster.
Season two of the gentlemen is coming to Netflix.
That's super sick.
There's also a Netflix show right now.
And I don't know how we jumped into recommendations or show recommendations, but I'm glad
that we did.
Naturally, we always do.
There's a show called The Heist on Netflix, the Diamond Heist on Netflix,
and that is what Guy Ritchie based the movie Snatch on.
It is.
Fire?
It's a documentary in Guy Ritchie style.
We're so spoiled with the amount of just stuff we have to watch nowadays.
It is unbelievable.
Bro, I haven't started The Penguin.
I haven't started Severance.
I haven't started Silo.
I haven't started...
We have a decision to make.
Okay.
Because I was talking to Bill the other day because we have dinner.
Wednesday. Do we scrap the dinner and go to Stars Edmonton game one?
No, we don't. It's Wednesday. It's Tuesday.
No, it's not. Are you sure?
Yeah. Because Bill asked me last night, are we going to the game Wednesday? I said,
I haven't talked to Seth at all. Yeah, we don't have dinner tonight, brother. Are you sure?
I'm literally, hey Siri, call Bill Canney? No, I think he might be right, because Bill gets in today at
1230. Okay, he's in the air. And then tomorrow he wanted to maybe go to the game.
Hey, don't twist my arm.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm fine with that.
I think it is today, so.
I do have scuff coming over until 745, though.
Today?
Mm-hmm.
Okay, so it's tomorrow then.
Yeah, that's...
Or Thursday.
That's what I was...
No, Thursday have AT&T.
Okay, so we just skip dinner and we just do the dinner on.
It's Wednesday.
It's not Wednesday.
Okay, fuck me then.
Because I'm, I'm...
It's at the club.
I'm...
It's on me.
Hell yeah.
No, it's not on me, but it's...
Get some of them pit vipers?
Oh!
No, pit masters.
Pit masters.
Pit Vipers.
Jerry's Pitmasters.
Yeah, they does some cooler.
I see young Merck up in there.
Because that shit got some bite to it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You saw Merck?
I did, I did.
I did see him.
And I was just playing search last night.
Just crying.
What's our, like, what is our expectation for the team at the major?
What did you have them getting?
First.
I actually put them in first.
Really?
I said they're going to drop to losers bracket and lose to phase in the winner's final.
And then we're going to make the finals through losers in the winter tournament.
I hope so.
Love that.
I mean, if we don't make mistakes, we got all the pieces now.
Merck's slaying.
Kyler's been playing well.
Who's been shit?
Kyler's been having a very silent.
The first map will set the tone for the entire tournament.
Which is funny because he is a silent type.
Yeah, but he's had a very silent, very good year.
Yeah.
Kyler hasn't been getting enough credit, man.
He has had a fourth best K of the league.
Yeah, he's had a statistically amazing season.
Shitting.
And people always talk about the hydras, the Neptunes,
Shotsies,
Sam Pobizi,
but Kyler's been having a
crazy Joe Deceives, you know,
the list goes on and on,
but Kyler's been playing out of his mind.
It's going to take everyone, man.
It's going to be a lot of momentum.
It's going to start in the first match
because teams like Thieves, Serge,
like they're consistent through and through in every game mode.
So I think we're going to have to just set the tone early
and make that run.
I was saying I think phase C9
could be closer than people think.
Yeah, Cloud 9.
Best to five.
I think C-9
their new roster,
especially,
that roster is basically
built for search.
They're not bad.
They can make something
happen against FACE.
Best of five,
first match the tournament.
Anything goes.
Like if Fais were
to come out slow,
they could definitely win.
It would surprise me,
but it wouldn't be like
out of the realm,
you know,
it would surprise me,
but it wouldn't be too crazy
if they do end up winning that.
Yeah.
I can't wait.
I mean, shit, man.
I mean, we have banger after banger.
I do, again,
I do feel a little bit
whack about
Us being on at the same time as the face match,
but I think we can hop back and forth, especially because...
Well, that's the beauty of it.
We watch a map, and then there's no break.
We watch a map, boom, we're into another series.
Like, I love that, just constant.
It's like Red Zone.
There's always going to be a cold brew weekend, boys.
Colbrook.
Colbrook weekend, I love that.
We have Meathead who's going to be following me around vlogging for me,
but at the same time, also being the gopher.
You know what I'm saying?
Security.
Security also.
Checking with Meathead.
Yeah, no, we're going to be set, man.
I am really excited to see a lot of you there.
Please please say hello if you guys see us.
Come up to the meet and greets.
Go check out the booth.
There's a lot of exclusive stuff that's going to be released there.
And there's going to be some stuff from the vault that you are going to want to get a piece of.
So with that in mind, ladies and gentlemen, link in the description down below.
If you still haven't copped your tickets, there's still plenty of time.
It's downtown Dallas.
It's downtown Dallas.
What's the event?
What venue?
You. Where the bomb. Where the bomb threats were the last time we're at.
So right outside the Omni? Yeah.
Oh, so it's in downtown.
Yes. Oh, okay.
Guys, go watch idiots. Get all your recommendations.
Is the Amni right? Are you thinking of Fort Worth?
No, it's Omni's right there.
Is the Omni right by the Convention Center right there?
Yeah, you don't remember we got that bomb threat.
Down the street from McDonald's.
Oh, but there's also an Omni in Fort Worth at that convention center right there.
There's an Omni in Chicago.
There's an Omni in Frisco.
That's when I went up to Olof Meister.
Oh, yeah.
And I was like, yo, should I go say what's up?
like we'd known each other.
He was showing love.
Never met him in person, but he was sitting there
with the whole phase team.
I think they were phase at that point.
It was like him, Nico, Kerrigan.
I'm like, Olaf, my guy.
I didn't want to like intrude, but he was nice.
Olaf.
It took a lot of balls to walk into that group.
Their whole team sitting down, like, I was like,
Olaf, my guy.
And they think they're the shit, too.
Phase CS at that time.
They were like, who the fuck's this kid?
No, no, no, no, no.
He's going to hit him on it.
It was Kerrigan.
It's a 1V1.
Jay Wonder.
It's the Wonder child.
I remember when we went to ESL1, New York,
like, I was in the background vlogging,
and I saw, I see, what's his name, Simple.
Oh, yeah, Simple's my guy too, though.
Yeah, I was like, simple.
I'm like, big fan, he's like, I like your videos.
And I was, oh, shit.
That's simple.
That's fucking simple, the greatest of all time.
Yeah, we have some of the sickest names too.
And he's in face right now.
Simple is?
Yeah.
I haven't been following CSO.
Yeah, me either, but I do know that.
Temper is going to be in town to hear me up.
We might have to check out the CS.
I mean, we're not going to have time to.
No, no, we will.
We will make it a point to check it out because I do want to see it.
Hell yeah.
I've never been to a CS major.
Oh, I mean, that's the only one that I've been to.
I'm sure it's crazy.
Because we were there for Chipotle years and years and years ago.
Chipotle's my life.
We went to check out CS.
It was fire, bro.
Yes, and with that, ladies and gentlemen, please come check us out.
Tune in this weekend.
We're going to be live the entire weekend.
If you are bored or if you have it in the background, you're going to be entertained the whole time.
Do tune in.
We'll see you guys next week for a breakdown of what happened this past weekend,
which would be obviously that weekend.
You know what I'm saying.
We'll see you guys next time.
Goodbye.
Peace.
Peace.
Peace.
Peace.
