Like in my head, like, I'm pissed I died.
And I just, in my head, I'm like, they're so happy right now.
You only know they're happy when, like, they down you and they'll just stand there and look at your body for a couple seconds.
I'll do that to people.
I'll put the knife to him as your team.
Mark the squad.
Can't cancel it?
And then you come back on the game?
That's it.
Then you assassinated?
I said.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first episode.
No, no, no.
To the 156 episode, first podcast of the new year.
We're going to start off by saying that we have no New Year's resolutions.
Who?
I do.
I'll say it.
Maaj got fired.
All these damn vacations.
What are Bigfoot?
Wait, where is he?
He's in Canada?
Not working.
Yo, Pam.
I'm going to just start taking a flight.
Sorry.
That's what I...
Can't schedule me.
That's what I was saying yesterday.
I went on the little login page.
I'm like, it'd be a shame if I just asked for some time off.
Right when content starts back up.
I got to visit the panel.
Listen, use your PTO smartly.
Sorry, Pam.
to you when you get back.
You'll be on next week.
We'll have a long talk.
Ladies and gentlemen, here we are.
This episode is brought to you by Rocket Money Factor USAA and Cheese It.
And we'll tell you a little bit more about some later on in the podcast.
Cheez-It.
I love Cheez-E-E-E-E-E-E-E-L-E-E-L-E-E-L-E-E-L-E-E-E-E-L-E-E-E-L-E-E-E.
Yeah, hey, listen, it's going everywhere now.
Everywhere, I think.
Not on the Jersey, though.
Y'all's how Cheez-E-E-E-E-E-L-E-E-L-E-L.
time snack,
top five snack, maybe.
I would say.
If you put, listen,
like a sandwich,
cheese in a little bag,
just, dude,
I can slam cheese.
I love it.
You get a box of cheese.
All right,
relax,
we'll talk about them later on
on the podcast.
How is,
how is your,
they make a good product.
I agreed,
agreed.
I just,
I just want to,
I just want to start out
by saying that,
obviously we had
the last 10 days
of the year off,
right?
Nobody had kindly,
man,
finally.
It felt,
didn't it?
It felt,
we were talking about it
Yesterday on stream.
Yeah, it was like we just get to wake up, start the stream.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, felt like a snow day.
All right, so we'll start with you, Nicholas.
What was your 10 days like, your break, your winter break?
Because you guys still work.
But I'm talking about like content and coming into the office.
It was nice coming in here and no one being here and just screaming as loud as I want.
Like it takes something out of me when people are here.
Yeah.
Because I'm like, I'm like, self-reasing.
about about not that I really care like I know they hear me regardless yeah but I'm just like
self-conscious when I know people were there like even sometimes formal be in there and I'm like I can't
scream how I really want to right now also like if I die I mean it helps but it's like I feel like
it takes something away from my stream to where I just like get to let loose so while over the break
people weren't here uh streamed pretty much every day I think I took off Christmas and
And the day after
and then
yeah, just streaming
staying consistent
getting back into eating healthier
I'm sick of fucking talking about it
As you sit there with a fucking Pepsi
It's a cold brew
This is like five calories
Yeah
Eating healthier
Same shit
Honestly I'm done talking about it
I'm not gonna tweet about it
At all this year
I'm not gonna talk about it
every podcast but that's
that's where I'm getting back into
the best me
What's your girl get you?
What's your girl get you?
Uh, she got me running shoes, some sandals, socks.
Well, you can't say running shoes.
What?
Alpha fly twos.
Nice.
They're pretty expensive.
They got the, no, these got the, I know you're a Hoka bear.
Yeah, the carbon fiber plate at the bottom.
The Hocas don't come with that.
You're talking about it.
Dude, the hokas were like 140 bucks.
That's a Nike shoe.
Is yours a Nike shoe?
Yours are twice as.
Yeah, the fly's a Nike shoe, right?
Yeah.
Okay, okay.
Carbon plate on the bottom, got that.
My mom gave me some money for the house
because expenses will be rolling in.
That's it.
Simple man.
Well, the house, what are you?
You're renting, right?
No, we're buying.
You're buying.
You're buying. Oh, fuck.
Yeah, that's what he's talking about.
Mortgage in all.
Hell yeah.
I mean, I don't, I'm not dealing with any.
You know what happens.
Are you putting a certain percentage down?
I don't know anything.
He just shows that, listen, like me,
he just shows up with the money,
he just shows up with the money.
I just,
this is my half of the effort.
Well, having a mortgage is good
because it increases,
your credit score, like, and it's just revolving.
Yeah, I just, I don't know, I don't know any of the details.
She's all into that stuff.
She's like a real estate type of person.
So she's like, interested by it all.
People, so I'm like, you take care of all that.
Tell me how much I got to send you.
And that's it.
I've been seeing people say that renting is cheaper or not, well, obviously it's cheaper probably.
In theory.
But it's like renting is better than owning a house.
In theory.
How, though.
You don't have to.
Because if shit breaks, you don't have to pay for it.
Property taxes.
But it's like, property.
Leasing versus financing a car.
I just never.
Well, I mean, you should always lease a car unless it's like a...
I don't.
Really?
I feel like you should always finance the car.
Yeah, you have to finance.
Yeah, well, I finance.
Well, I mean, like, buy the car.
Own the car.
You've been taught by the Rockefeller's boys to pay cash for everything, to not owe anybody anything.
But why wouldn't you...
Why would you spend anybody else's money?
Like, I financed but turning the car in before I'm in the red.
Like, I'll never be in the red.
I just don't get.
Yeah.
Yeah, I just got an offer for my Raptor.
Dude.
I'm not doing it.
Just sell it.
They offer you double?
You got hell of cars.
No, I don't.
But listen.
Don't you have like four or five cars?
I only have one, the Raptor.
Jude has the wagon, the EQS, and the fucking Bronco.
So you got four.
She's got four.
I have a boat and like I only have, I don't have any dogs.
I just, I just, he's got dog.
You don't claim that?
I'm kidding.
I love my poochies, all of them.
How was yours?
Scumper jumper.
The break?
Yeah, man.
I mean, yeah, it was great.
I went home.
Had a lot of fun at home.
Got to see my brother for two days.
Usually I only get to see him one day at Christmas.
I got to see him for two days.
So I was lit.
Yeah, we had a good time.
Back to Philly?
I mean, I lived in Harrisburg.
Yeah, yeah, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
You got late?
I know.
He sent me a picture.
We sent me a, we sold BTH shot glasses, and he sent me a picture.
I was like, fuck you.
I said pouring up, and I sent him a picture.
Oh, hell yeah.
I think it was like Christmas Eve maybe.
Grady.
I've never got...
I made my day.
I never got BTH shock glasses.
I've never gotten the little...
The little fucking...
But I keep mentals of all that.
His mom bought it.
Supported.
I know who...
I keep notes too.
You know, my collectible wall was full of figurines.
Right?
Like figurines.
You're on the bottom.
I had Biggie.
I had M.F.
Doom.
But I never had a Richie from Richie
from Rich and Lonely in my collection.
Can you believe that?
Wait, what?
I take mental notes.
for that too. He used to. He used to give
until it got expensive and no one started
giving me nothing. Listen, you have- I don't got to pay for it.
For what?
They made a figurine. They made a figurine.
Oh, okay. And I don't have it with my figurines.
People haven't talked. To this day.
I got you tomorrow. To this day. People I haven't talked to in like three years
be like, go, let me get a B-T-H-D. I'm like, so me spend
40 bucks, ship it out to you. No.
What I told my friends who never asked for anything,
but when they did
when they did
what
shout out my man Joey
shooting the content
the behind the seats
Joe's the man
so
he doesn't look like that
I told my
I told my boy
I'm like yo I see you buying
cup shit all the time
bear shit all the time
so you can buy all that shit
buy my shit
right
yeah
see the Nike hoodie
and they're like oh I get it now
so they do
see the Nike hoodie
you see the Adidas sweats
I don't see the BTH
I bought BTH shit before
Only the ones I looked at the
Yeah
It should come from a few far in between
No they're all fine
But anyway
So overall success
Yeah yeah it's great
Great Christmas
I'm gonna tell you my disgusting break
Are you ready?
Yeah, it's here
I was literally living
Fucking life
The way that I would love to live life
I would wake up
I would make two eggs
Bacon and sausage
Beans
And I'll make a breakfast salsa for it
Or I would just eat jalapenos
From there
You weren't
making the salsa
where I buy
think about
think about it doesn't even make sense
my own salsa
you weren't making the salsa
in the mulcahed thing
in a mulca hette
that's exactly where I was making it
that's actually
what you did that
no it was a it was a blender
but after that
I would go straight
to my office
I would sit down
and I would play
war zone with my boys from home
who also wore on break
apparently
you're better than none
obviously
and then I would wait
until Hodg and Diesel
will get on
so that we could play
CMG
matches.
Okay?
Those were funny.
Those were fucking fun.
We literally we have like our record right now.
Matt, can you look at our CMG record up?
It's like it's maybe like two and 17.
No, it's not.
Wait, I think I saw one of the games.
You all one.
Y'all, it's so bad.
I mean, y'all had a ninja defuse three times.
Listen, we've been out of the circuit from competition from GVs for like two years.
And then we make a return.
Of course, there's going to be things that we don't remember.
But listen, I'll tell you one thing.
This, these hands, these thumbs, this shot.
Just know that I know that if I was your age and had the same opportunities that y'all had to play professionally, I would have been a professional.
So I, these moms do it.
You can't say that after saying you're two and 17 on CMG.
I don't play with better teammates.
I'm also 40.
About to be 44 in a month.
Right.
You guys are right behind me.
Not 45?
No.
I thought you're 45.
No.
1980.
80s baby.
Literal.
Yeah.
Okay.
So I forgot.
So just know.
If I had eight hours a day to spend.
Like, seriously, if you lose a gunfight to me, just know that I know that I'm better than you,
and I would have been 10 times better than you if I was your age and played as much as you did.
So after that, I would get off, have dinner in between with the family.
And literally, I took no calls except for maybe four calls in those 10 days that had to do with business.
Oh, yeah, I forgot you told me you can't, like, you're not picking out of your phone.
You can't wait.
Nah.
Like, you just chill home.
They literally chilled at the crib.
I drew five sketches, like five sketches of what I'm going to paint.
on walls.
In 24 hours, I painted 7.
Last year, I only painted 3.
Just to give an idea how freely
my mind and my creative was
flowing just by having a good time playing
called through no work.
What was yours like?
But with that said,
at 9 o'clock on the 31st,
I did a 24-hour food water fast
until the phone.
Flip the switch?
Yeah.
You were back on your bullshit?
Yeah, you're eating like a goddamn pig.
Listen, yeah.
Dude, but I'm talking about like dinners
were fucking mac.
immaculate.
I was eating like...
There we go.
Look at this shit.
Zero dollars in earnings.
10 and 34.
Yeah.
23% win rate.
Yeah.
Yeah, but we're not going to do what lanes do, which restart it.
Yeah, they do restart their shit.
Yeah, they restart their shit a lot.
Like, what do you do?
It's like Bose's gulag record.
What the fuck?
Boz's Goulde record.
Damn.
Is that right?
No, we actually run shit.
We get on and we run shit.
Not gonna roast.
Until like 5 p.m.
You got it.
You got to take the high road?
Take the higher road.
Oh, man.
But I'm telling you, like, I literally was living life.
What about you?
What did you do on your break?
Not shit.
I was in the crib, streaming.
Drinking so much every day.
I swear it's like four drinks.
You're like, man, I had drinks last night.
Three to four drinks.
Mine was like, mine was like Christmas Eve Christmas.
were bad and the New Year's Eve was bad.
But I'm a lightweight, so it doesn't matter.
Like, four drinks, like, I feel nice, but if I tell myself, like, act drunk, motherfucker.
I can fuck.
I go, you know what I'm saying?
It's weird to me.
Like, it's like four or five drinks, and I'm, I'm there.
Blacked out?
Not blacked out, but, like, you can push me on my phone over.
It depends on what I, you can get loose.
It depends on what I drink.
If you give me, like, let's say, two old fashions, that's the equivalent to me as,
like 13 rum and cocks.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I'm not any, you know what I'm saying?
I kind of felt like that in Colorado.
Like we would have old fashions there and it would hit.
Maybe it's like that altitude or whatever.
Dude, old fashions.
Old fashions to me are not like a party drink.
If they're made, I'm not getting old fashioned or party.
No, it's not a party thing.
That's like a dinner drink.
Yeah.
Whatever drink Nate had his had at his wedding.
Oh my, bro.
That shit was a party drink.
Brother.
That shit tasted.
And I partied?
Like I tweeted.
eat like that's how I imagine alcohol to taste like that she was yeah I just don't care about
taste good shit in a shot great selection oh yeah congratulations on the baby oh yeah man
congratulations that's crazy congrats that's he's a father I saw on Instagram he said like he never
thought really thought about having a kid didn't really think he would have one then now that he
has had one it's like he couldn't imagine not having it you're right behind
He would say he would like send us a pick of the baby and be like guys I'm just sending it to you
I don't give a fuck if you care if I have a baby or not.
Yeah, I'm like yeah he's crazy he's crazy he's been rude really man and it's hilarious
probably a crazy feeling he's like I know you guys don't you guys don't get like sappy and shit.
Yeah, I hit him up and like yo how you hanging in there you know asking about parenthood and then he started talking to me about business like yo man fuck about business right now this moves off time everybody's off
off.
Yeah, Bill Kenny was making this rounds.
I would be in the game
I'll fucking send him
I'd be like yo Bill what's up man
You know quiet time for me
Bill Kenny's always on
Guys's a beast
He is
All right so just
Some drinking playing games
Yeah nothing major
Same shit
Trying to at least keep the momentum
Going into whatever fucking momentum I have
Go to India
Hey it starts
Dude look at our momentum
We were fucking 10 and 23
I bet you we're gonna be
We're gonna be in a 50%
Once a once we're
Look at our momentum
We're 10 and 23.
Yeah, what's wrong with that?
Pretty sure it's like 10 and 34.
Was it 10 and 34?
Was it?
Was it?
Let me see.
Let me see.
God, damn.
You've been getting slammed, baby.
Fucking, I account for nine first bloods per match.
I think I saw two of those wins, too.
I get first blood.
Yo, all right, can we clear the air?
Hutch thinks that a first blood is, if you die first, at any point in the round.
So even if you plant bomb, call it, there's a,
minute left and you die first, that's first blooded.
I mean, technically, yeah.
But isn't first blood like in the first minute of the game?
No, first blood is the first person to die.
Period?
Period.
It doesn't matter.
If I'm playing bomb and I die.
If you're the bomb guy.
Huts just got your ass.
I can't believe you guys are agree with him.
No, but nobody...
It depends the way you look at it.
I mean, I could see why you would think that...
Doesn't necessarily have to mean a bad thing.
Let me see.
If I plant the bomb...
They're not watching you.
If I plant the bomb and I die as I run away from doing the utility...
Because they're not watching your back.
Because they're not watching my...
Even if I told them...
Still got blooded.
How it is.
Not necessarily a negative.
Whatever.
Just know that everybody knows that I...
This is my MVP season.
I carry this motherfucking team.
I'm back.
Except when I'm not having a good game,
which is in the beginning.
I warm up, though.
Face Clan joins Challengers?
Why is that a topic?
There's no Challenger's League.
What are we talking about?
Is there a Challenger's League?
Yeah.
Has the league the league announced it?
I don't know if they've announced it.
Okay, so the CDL hasn't announced anything.
I mean, yeah, there's got to be challenged.
What's our?
Who's our transfer?
Exceed, Brack, Kemp, and team.
That's good team, man.
That's probably, that's probably one of the, that has to be one of the better challenges.
100%.
Aseem is the fucking man.
A seam actually, I saw a tweet yesterday.
They did like a peer vote.
And Aseem's number one.
Like, out of the challengers, they did like a challenger's, like, player vote.
Oh, really?
A seam's number one right now.
100%. I mean, the amount of talent that we lost, right, because of the CDL is, like, insane.
But I don't think that the CDL has an official challenger's, like, schedule or tournament.
I mean, do it? Is it third party? I remember saying something, like, I remember. I don't know the exact facts, but.
I've seen no promotion from the CDL accounts. I've seen no, like, hey, you know, like anything.
If I'm the CDL and I see the Face Clan or Atlanta, is it Face Clan or Atlanta Phase?
Face Clan Black.
Face Clan Black.
Face Clan Black.
Face Clan Black, but...
Click on that FC Black official.
The fuck.
Back in black, back in business,
face up, Los Angeles.
Dude, I'm getting one of those nose burns again, man.
In the back of your thing.
Oh, that's Zuma.
Zuma signed them, I think.
Yeah, it's Tom's team.
Damn.
I thought I all knew that.
Yeah, it's Tom's team.
That makes sense.
That's fire.
That's cool.
Yeah, what happened to y'all's...
Y'all gave up on the challenge of your dream, didn't you?
I mean, you didn't even start.
Yeah, we just couldn't do it.
That's not going to do it.
They're having more fun playing fucking war zone.
Yeah.
I don't do it.
Use any made me?
Yeah.
Why not?
We go 12 and 34.
Yeah.
But have great content, great monetization.
Yes.
No, that's what you think until you start losing.
And then it's not even fun.
Shit stains you think or no or used to be better than they're beating.
you they think there's something like
then everyone's
personalities changes changes
and it's no longer fun
it's no longer funny
that's how it would have went
yeah I don't know
I'm getting roasted yeah
people are clipping you
they ninja defuse the bomb
they get they're getting
likes on Twitter now
I'm king ninja diffuse
FYI know that
you are I saw you go for that twice
and actually get away with it
yeah Dix's a close
This is a shit show right now in here.
No,
like once this starts going on, I start losing my focus.
I'm not going to be hearing y'all.
Hey, but it's like, can anyone focus on the fuck up over there?
You can take pictures quietly.
Damon's raging.
Damon's raging.
He's got a beanie on.
He's got a beanie on.
Who knows the last time he got a haircut?
He's raging.
He's on your ass right now, DB3.
King of Tarkov.
King of Tarkov.
Yeah, he is.
Tarky wiped.
He retired from wars.
zone played with us once
rage quit probably had fun
probably
he rage quit I don't know
he had fun but he's just like I don't want to
have that much fun
I want to play tarkey
off I can get chill
like competitive gaming up
I do I do wish that I like like
I liked I was telling hutch and then I wish I liked
yeah like they were playing some fucking
avatar game they were flying through the
collecting fucking roots and
all this shit and I was just like
you played the finals
the finals we played the beta
but not the...
What's the finals?
Oh, yeah,
I remember you guys
tell me to get on it.
Yeah,
yeah, we played the beta.
And it was fun as fuck.
I'm not gonna lie.
What are the finals?
It's just a game
that just came out.
It's like a FPS.
It's not like an arena shooter.
I don't even know what to categorize it,
but it's like an FPS.
Your characters have abilities.
You got to basically take,
there's objectives on the map.
You got to deposit money,
defend it.
But yeah,
it's like a cracked movement game.
And we played the beta,
but yeah,
the full game released.
randomly.
They just randomly dropped it one day.
I mean, right there, like I can tell you that I would not
like this game. This guy got a headshot and had to go back
for a second shot. Splitgate was fun.
I don't remember split gate.
This game looks good though. He's got camo. He had all like the
portals and stuff. Yeah, yeah, you get abilities.
It was a lot of fun. We played the beta
during the off season. There wasn't really much to play
and we had a good time with it for a couple days.
But now Cod's out.
Listen, if you want to have a successful
FPS, like just mimic
or follow, I'm
what Call of Duty did with the movement.
Like this,
so that's the way
should be my opinion.
When I just make a call of duty.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But just.
Aelo tried.
Look at,
look at Battalion in 1944.
Now I'm kidding.
That's,
I had to say it.
But that's,
that's what it is.
I don't know how I feel about this next topic.
Um,
because I think Twitch has a lot of power in this thing that can,
they can help mitigate the risk in this scenario.
which is a Twitch streamer has been left stranded and homeless in Japan
after a Donator's Bank took back the gifted funds needed for his trip
Well first off that's fucked
Yeah
How much we talk in there
I mean that's just fucked
Like donate it
Alright let me read this
Swedish Twitch streamer has found himself in hot water blah blah
However shortly arriving yes
Now homeless in a foreign country
The man revealed a Twitch via Twitch that he was bankrupt with no one
Wait, okay, go down, man.
How much was it?
I mean, it had to be pretty substantial, right?
So I came out to Asia, and I wanted to use a donation money to come here, and now it's all gone.
So now I'm stuck.
Chris explains my option is, I don't know what my option is.
I have to figure it out what I'm going to do tonight.
I don't know.
Is there a figure on this, Matt?
Okay, well, this is my thing, though.
When you go somewhere, you already paid for your ticket, their and back, right?
Because you can't just buy a one way.
I mean, you could, but who does that if you're going to visit?
Secondly, you already at least paid for your hotel or you should pay for it up front so that they can't cancel your hotel, although they can't cancel it.
But after that, you, I mean, one, you're getting there and sleeping should be already covered.
Already covered.
And then you figure out the rest.
You should be like, damn, I don't know if, I don't know if I'm able to eat.
I can't make it back now.
Yeah.
You know what I'm saying?
At least you have someone to sleep, shower, be right.
And I'm sure someone did take back money.
And it might hurt him badly, but I saw someone else say like, he's just using this.
And I'm not saying he is, but like he's just using this.
Like he's telling people that.
So other people start donating, feeling bad for him.
But like he has money.
He's going to make it home.
Like if they, if you have 10 grand in your account and 5,000 of it is from the donation
and you spent the 5,000, half of that on hotel rooms and whatever and then they charge back
the five, other five, you're, you got $0.
dollars. Well, first of all, one, you should have an account.
And if you spend some of that five, you're at negative 25, 35.
He might be in the red bad.
No, do they still charge people for negative, like overdraft fees?
But like, hell yeah, they do.
Do they?
There's times where I forget to, like, put money into my checking.
Yeah.
And then I'll go on. It'll be like $34 charge randomly.
The only thing I will say, I don't want to fucking drag myself in it.
But, I mean, you got to have like, you got to have, like, you got to have.
have a plan. Like you get donated that. Great. But if it's like you're going there and you're
traveling there and you have zero dollars if it gets charged back, I mean, that's risky. That's just
risky straight up, right? That's just a risky way to live. That's risky. I mean, and then, I mean,
what Nick said, there's, there's that possibility, which, I mean, again, you don't want to assume that.
Yeah, you don't want to assume that. But like, I don't know, it's kind of weird. It gets charged
back. But he charged back and now you have nothing? Yeah. And now you're stranded and homeless.
You didn't have, like, your shit wasn't already paid for.
If you had five grand, he donates five.
Now you have ten.
You use that five for whatever.
You have the five left.
You spent some of that.
And he charged back, he could be in the red fucking, who knows what.
And then if fucking his next Twitch payment isn't enough to cover what's red, he's still in the red.
Yeah, but you see what I'm saying is why take a trip like that?
If you're that.
Maybe, I mean, some people do do that.
Yeah, I agree.
You know what I agree?
Some people do do that, though, and that might be his thing on Twitch to where, like, they're...
I forget what it's called when they, like, don't really have homes, but they just have, like, a little bit of money and they make it work and they plan everything out.
It's like, so an emergency or something bad happens, like, they really don't have money.
Like, just because they are traveling like this, like, doesn't necessarily mean...
I wouldn't do that personally.
They're playing it safe with extra money just in case.
We're talking about another state.
If you're going to, like, North Dakota or something, you're a couple states up, that's fine.
You're going to Japan.
We've got to have these funds in order.
I mean, you're in a different country.
If shit goes wrong, you're not dealing with the U.S.
You're dealing with Japan.
You got to go to an embassy somewhere.
Yeah, fuck that.
I wouldn't do that personal.
No, me either.
Yeah, that's crazy.
I just, I just, I plan.
It's not your currency.
I plan everything, right?
Like, I plan this trip.
I could see myself doing this, to be honest.
Really?
I think you should have, well, first of all, you should have an account.
It's not smart to have to not have a,
backup plan, but it's like, I don't, I've had some spontaneous
moments. But on the other foot, it is fucked up that that person charged back.
But again, I mean, you never know what that person's going through. What if that person
gave this money out of the goodness of their heart? And then they needed the money back.
It's like, that's where Twitch should step in and say, oh, or they made a mistake.
Once you submit that, I don't think you should get it. Or they were scumbags and they donated it.
And then they were like, got your ass. You know what I'm trapped in Japan?
It's like, you know what?
You called me a bad name on social a long time ago.
Oh, God, this is my recent.
I mean, there's so many ways it could be going.
You just don't know.
But that's fucked.
Should have unblocked me.
Punk.
Yeah, no, that's fucked up.
Well, listen, he'll make, he'll be all right.
Well, listen, I.
Matt, can you make it a point to have a follow-up next week to see where this dude's at?
He's good.
This is the Twitch community.
Yeah, the Twitch community.
Yeah, people will hook him up.
He probably made money.
Yeah, oh, yeah.
What's going to happen?
And that's why, like, there was comments under there saying, like, he's just going to get more money from this.
Which, I mean, whatever.
I don't give a fuck.
Yeah, I hope it works, man.
I'm going to do your thing, man.
And I do appreciate the good kind of heart of your community.
That's how I was willing to do that.
It's 2024, man.
It's going to be a good year for everyone.
It is going to be a great year.
We just exude positivity this year?
Yeah.
I'm trying.
But I am going to hand out some negativity this year, though.
100%.
In which I have been and I'm trying to stop, like in games.
game chat someone kills me i'll just be like you dude no you haven't been you say i'm gonna smash your
fucking skull in that's what i'm saying dude he's comedy i have some moments where i'm like what am i what am i
doing like i'll start typing in chat then i'll just i'll just delete my team but then sometimes
and then we'll die yeah keep camping there my team's gonna kill you fucking coward he's like here comes
sat i'm just like he's hilarious like scumpy we see you he'll die and he'll be like now you're dead
It just comes out so quick.
Like, it's like, it's not even, like, I have to, like, consciously be like, oh, shit,
this is going to.
No, my favorites.
Like, stop myself from fucking sane.
My favorites when he dies and he's like, I, I just know I can.
I know I'd fuck you up real life.
I just want to real life, BR, where it's just a straight bra.
Can we just do a battle royale in Dallas?
Yeah, yeah.
With, like, we trap off the American Airlines and we just,
ah.
I will be honest, I am surprised that no one has set that up because that's something so easy to set up.
Fight to the death?
No, not to the death, but like, you know, like something very violent.
That's what we're referring to.
Think about, think about bump fights that happened in the 90s.
Think about the bump fight thing.
Then they had like all this, like all the other.
Remember that shit?
Like, I am surprised that somebody hasn't done a battle royal bump fight.
That's so fucked up, though.
That's weird.
I watch.
Even if it wasn't,
even if it wasn't Bums,
it's like,
I mean,
there are people that would do it though.
Just imagine?
Because people are just fucking sickos.
You go from,
from Bump to Bilt to Millionaire.
Because there's a million dollar price in the end.
Like you're just.
Squid Games.
Yeah,
like Squid Games.
But listen,
you do it.
Like,
you're doing it.
When's season two of Squid Games come out?
I don't know.
I haven't watched that.
I don't know.
I don't watch that.
I don't watch that was good?
Squid games?
Yeah.
Wait,
Wait, which one?
Which one?
The main one?
The main one?
The show or the game show, Squid Games.
No, the show show.
Yeah, I watched the show.
Oh, okay.
I don't think I would watch season two.
Why not?
They're going to have different games.
They already got, they already left my interest.
There's a season two?
They took too long?
They took too long.
They had my, they captivated my, my interest.
But then they, I mean, I was assuming they're busy.
I don't know.
Like the first one.
I can't really remember how it ended.
Even if it flops, they're still going to make money.
Squid game two?
It could be the worst show ever
They'll still profit
I don't know if that exists
Like a like a billionaires like that
That put money up like that
Just to see the entertainment
Probably
Who knows?
I mean I'm sure
Because
I want season two
A lesser degree
Yeah
I'm sure they have
Yeah right
At some point that's had to have happened
Oh yeah
For sure
I really fuck with the show
100,000
You guys go into this bunker
Underground in my house
And we're gonna lock the door
In real life
I'm gonna put my ear to it
once I hear
the rumbling stop
whoever is in his being
he's talking about real life
he's talking about
locking two people in a vault
or like 20 people into a vault
like the joker did right
like once I don't hear any more noise
I'll open this door
and so one person will step up
little do you know they teamed up
bro now you're
and now they come out and just try to mall you
now you're getting fucked
I know they did used to do some shit like that
back in like slavery days
fucked up
they did
yeah
like they would make slaves fight and shit
and like
basically kill each other
whoever lives
gets picked or whatever
Jesus
I was just referring to the kid
that actually exists
in his fucking mind bone
I'd like to be locked in a room with him
yeah that's all
the guy shot your body
yeah
like
my body gets shot at all the time
and I'm just like
you this is your first wrong
you want to know what this shit
that instantly goes to run
mind when that happened. Oh, I know exactly. I just want to
ooh. Yeah, hold yourself back. Yeah, yeah, you got it. I hold myself back. Sometimes
I'm like, I'm about to go rogue and I'm like, no, not worth it. But you
like, one time, one time this guy killed me. Not often, no. Not often. This guy killed me and I was
like, I bet he's so fucking happy. And he was a Twitch streamer and I went to his
stream, went to his rebroadcast, looked at what he killed me. He didn't give a fuck. He just like,
he just kept going on with his day. Like, like, so it's like in my head, I'm super fucking pissed. But
in his head he just called me off guard killed me
bought his teammate back and they just like kept playing
like they don't like in my head
I'm pissed I died and I just in my head
I'm like they're so happy right now you only know they're happy
when like they down you and they'll just stand there
and look at your body for a couple seconds I'll do that to people
I'll put the knife to him where's your fucking team
mark the squad and then you come back on the game
that's it where's the
then you assassinated I said I fucking love that man
yo you know which one I just saw for the first time
is that anime one where like they
assassinate you but like a little dweeb
or like a little thing comes out of the back back
Yeah that. Yeah that.
Yeah, that's a little gnome.
Wait, really?
Yeah, I'm getting that.
That's my favorite one.
I haven't even looked at it.
I haven't changed any mine.
I haven't looked at any operator skins,
weapons skins, animations.
Like I haven't looked at any of that.
Probably some crazy shit.
I got interstellar.
That you can buy for $49.99.
I got my camo that I earned.
The cat skin?
No, no.
that I bought.
I want that cat skin, but you won't share.
I'm sure there's another one.
There's got to be another color.
There's another color.
Wait, why?
I was rocking the Rudolph skin and I just felt like my head was such a easy.
What does that mean?
What does that mean, though?
What is that?
What is that?
You can't buy the one that he's wearing?
Well, he just had it first.
Oh, you just don't want to mimic him.
He's right.
Out of respect.
Yeah, yeah.
He gets it.
He's riding.
Wait, but that one looks like junior more than in those.
That's what I'm saying.
Leonard?
It literally is Leonard.
It's literally junior, though.
Okay, then.
But I bought it.
We can be a cat duo as well.
Or a cat duo.
Red dual, cat duo.
I just don't know, do I want to put 20 bucks back in the game?
I spent 20 bucks on Rudolph.
Right side of the podcast duo.
What's up?
Spent 20 bucks on Rudolph.
I just get Blaine nonstop because my head's so fat.
Something like, do I put 20 bucks in?
Yeah, I don't, I don't know if certain skins.
I mean, certain skins just stand out so much more that it's like,
I feel like it's almost like easier to chase me.
You won't think it's another team.
You know what I would do?
I just stand out so much.
If they let us do like an optic skin, however.
Yep, that's Len.
Sergeant Pse, Jr.
That's awesome.
I don't, I mean, I don't fuck with cats at all, but that is pretty cool.
That's Len.
Okay, now I'm going to show you a picture of us.
Is that really what it is?
Yeah.
Sergeant.
Yeah, that's cool.
You guys didn't get it?
You guys were PSPS, PSPS.
Dumbies.
See, Activision, you got this right.
It's not the artists is the lawyers.
No, they got this right, right.
What's the other one, Matt?
That's a goaded name.
Nah.
Dude, what are you talking about?
He looks more like Junior.
He looks more like Junior.
Moses is rage-witting.
That is literally Len.
Oh, right there?
Talking about it.
No, there's two cats.
There's a different color.
Literally, there's a cat right there's like a gray one and an orange one.
Yeah, there is.
Sergeant Sprinkles.
That's sprinkles and sp-s.

Yeah, with the witches?
The black cats name is Binks.
Like, come little children
will take you away into a land of a chant.
Yeah, when you go to sex house, like you see the dog off.
it and then cats will just start
pretty much peeking out randomly. I'll never see
no fucking cats. You'd just be chilling and the cat will come flying by
you'd be like, what the hell? I see
Gwen. Benz is always out though. I see Gwen's out.
Gwen's bad. No, she's not. She's awesome.
I don't know.
I will say let's take a quick commercial break. I want to talk about this
formal considering coming out of retirement. What the fuck does
retirement mean? Ice at the party was like, Oliver, go in your room.
I'm tired of telling you.
Oliver doesn't know what he's fucking.

Back to the podcast, ladies and gentlemen.
I have an Oliver dog or cage.
And the second that I say, he knows.
I'm going to go to the fuck out of my sight.
I'm going to see when I go.
One day when I go to your house, I'm going to see.
Yeah, dude.
I'm gonna see how well, dog.
I'll ask Jude, we'll be having dinner, right?
And then Henry, Henry will come up.
Let Henry bite my sandwich.
That don't count, though.
You walk in with a sandwich.
No dogs being good.
I mean, there are some, but they're the people.
They just brought me back.
Super trained.
I remember I used to be at my grandmother's house playing like cod-for.
And somebody would bring a sandwich and you would get all.
And now, they bring me a sandwich.
And then I put it on the ground next to me.
Look down.
It'd be gone.
The dog ate it.
Yeah.
Fucking coward.
You put your sandwich on the ground?
Dumb mutt.
Like, fucking coward mud.
Like, we feed you every day, dumbass.
Think how shit their food is, though.
Just dry.
That's funny.
I've tried it.
That's what I thought.
And I bet it tastes exactly how it looks.
You've ever tried it?
No, yes, I have.
Dog food?
Yeah, yeah, same.
I have to see what you do.
I have it.
But my dogs do not eat, like, kibble.
No, no dry food.
Donkeys fuck.
No, they don't eat that.
They eat farmer's dog.
Yeah, we see, posted like in a pack of,
we tried that with one of ours.
but he kept like shit in his pants.
No, but that only happens for like,
while it's getting rid.
Just hairy shit pants.
But that is all of the enzymes
from this good food
that's getting rid of all the toxins
and all the shit.
They're gonna shit themselves.
He's definitely not used to it.
Once you get into the clean one,
you have nothing but solid poop
that's easy to pick up.
And I'll tell you what.
The groomers that come to our house
to groom the fucking dogs,
they brought us tamales from Venezuela.
They call them something different,
But I was about to fucking cook one.
They're fucking delicious.
I was about to cook one.
And I put it on the counter.
And I saw Henry smelling and I'm like, hey, right?
I went to my office to get something.
By the time I got back, Jude's like, oh, my God.
He was, he ate the whole fucking thing.
What?
Two buys that.
Oh, done.
He was in jail.
They put it in Jew.
They don't enjoy it.
They just fucking.
Oh.
They just suck it back.
They swallow it whole.
Yeah.
I'm like, this is your one opportunity to enjoy this.
Like, Buzz will literally call.
Yeah.
Buzz won't even chew.
He just.
Yeah.
Done.
Yeah, yeah.
Easy.
Just their survival instincts or something.
They just eat, man.
That's what it is.
Henry is like the most dangerous one because obviously like if he's, he can put, he can rest his his chin right here like this without like leaning up.
Like that's how tall he is.
So he's easy.
The second he says up, he can reach anything everywhere.
Surprise the motherfucker hasn't burnt himself on the on the stove.
Mark.
Your dog gets mad like when you go next to him while he's eating and shit?
No, no.
No, no.
But if they come near me, all I have to do is this.
Mm.
And he'll be like, oh, slowly backs up.
I like doing that.
Like going like primal with them.
Yeah.
You do that?
With yours?
Sometimes.
All you got to do is, I'll put my head against his.
Eye each other, start growling at him.
And they just start smacking up slowly.
I'm a fucking alpha in this house.
And then he sees you, your girl telling you to pick something up.
And then he's like, ain't shit.
I'll tell you what, though.
like I know who they
who they think is the alpha
Jude's the only one
she's the mom
you know that they'll protect
like they'll probably protect her against me
they'll lose
but they'll try
how many dogs you have
six
wait you think you beat Henry one-on-one
hell no
I don't know
there's just too much technique involved
I believe that I can
not a bite off
just okay listen how about this
if there's a dog exactly
like Henry who has never met me
I'd have a tough time
because those canines
are this fucking big
and he literally
he can jump up here
with no problem
think about you can't do that
you can't do that
you don't do it right now
I'll give you $1,000
if you're able
I hurt my knee doing that
on like kitty trail
you jump up
I like I need a warm up
yeah
it's done
I could I just need like a dynamic
stretch warm up
got a dynamic
you hear the shit dynamic
dynamic aim
dynamic stretch
What else, dweeb?
Like, Great Dane.
Mastiff.
Great Dane, Mastiff.
I don't know if there's a dog I couldn't take.
A German Shepherd maybe.
I just, I'm thinking technique-wise.
Like, they don't have technique.
They just have aggression.
But I have technique.
I mean, I know how I would do it, but I'm not going to.
This guy, this guy successfully.
People tips.
No, it just sounds crazy.
I'm talking about harming a dog.
I would never do that.
Yeah.
Look at that.
A day nif.
I mean, I could be delusion.
Yeah, dude
Don't get me wrong
I could be delusional
in my mind
I'm like Henry
You know like when you first go to your house
He'll just like stand off
And decide and just growl
I'm like fuck
Hector please come over here
And get this off
Like get in between us
I know he wouldn't
Yeah yeah no he's good
All right
Let's get back
All right
Formals on retiring
As we were talking about this
What does he even mean
He's literally competing right now
So what does he mean
Out of context
Oh my god, the Sertr article, of course.
Greatest of all time AR, of course people are going to want to see him.
Greatest of all time Halo player, of course.
Wait.
I'm retired for Cod, maybe.
I guess you could never really say never.
It would have to take a lot for me personally.
They're like unretired and go back to Cod.
It has to be like a really good cod.
I have to be a good team.
To be in the right headspace.
Like it had to be a lot of shot.
Like the Cod grind is a lot different from the Halo ground.
The Cod grind is a lot more intense.
A lot more serious.
Halo grinds like whatever, dude.
Like, scrimmed around like that fucking serious.
Like, they're serious, but you know what I mean?
Like, cod's like, like 11 a.m.
to like fucking 4 p.m. type shot.
Like, there's so much different.
More than that.
Yeah?
It'd be a really good cod.
That's what really, really like it, type shot.
I can't imagine form while living like that anymore.
Nah?
Cod scrims are probably like 12 to 7 right now for like teams.
They probably get on an hour early.
Scrims start at one.
They probably wrap up around like six.
Like, I feel like I kind of.
saw it formal's last year of
like
semi dreading it
its long days
couldn't wait for that shit to get
like practice to be over like
the only exciting thing would be the matches
but like besides that like unless
you're in love with the game and he's
already proved so much that he's not like
I guess has that
fire in him to like even
though I don't like the game that
much like I just want to fucking win
like he's already won so much that
I don't know.
I don't know if he...
I mean, he obviously could
if he really wanted to.
It's just hard to even want to
when you're at the point form
what's at.
Because like people at this point,
he's fucking 29.
He does...
No one likes the games anymore.
I don't know.
You're saying that Eastport is a young man's game?
A little bit.
I just think once you're around it so long
and you've played so many cods
and you've experienced the good cods
and the bad cods
and now every cod seems so redundant
redundant, it's the same shit.
And yes, you do get bored of it.
And that makes it so much harder
to go through these seven, eight hour days.
Could he do it if he absolutely
forced himself? I think so.
But like, I just don't see him even
like wanting to do that.
Then you're forcing yourself.
Then you're not playing as good as you can
because you're forcing yourself to do it.
Yeah, it's like...
What do you know?
Huh?
Okay.
The flow states harder to achieve.
I was forcing myself still dropping one point two.
What would it take?
I don't want to.
How much would it take?
I don't want to.
Really?
No.
I'm saying no to money.
Dude, I fucking, I love my routine right now.
Yeah?
Yeah, no stress.
Fucking.
Love it.
Nobody expects anything of me but to get on and just be myself.
I mean, it's great fucking, it's great gig right now, man.
I'm loving it.
I'm happy for you.
I fucking, I've been loving it, man.
Freedom, don't have to get scrims.
Like, dude, with scrims around the holidays, like, dude, you get like two holiday days,
you get to go home?
Actually, it's not true.
That's not true.
But is Preds still and, or is Predback?
I don't know.
I know Dashu's not back.
But Brandon's not back, but like you're just on the team's
So it's like, you know, you're like how content feels.
That's how it's like to be on the team.
Because like you're on content schedule now.
Yeah.
You're not on your schedule.
You're on content schedule.
You're on practice schedule.
So I've been loving them in.
After fucking however many years are competing, it's been a nice change of pace.
I can't lie.
I'm with it.
Now you love war zone.
Nah, we get on war zone every day and just fucking vibe for six hours.
Oh, it is crazy.
That's what we do.
And on Halo, I used to get on stream two, three hours.
I'm like, I'm getting the fuck off.
I'm so bored.
I'm so annoyed.
I'm so mad.
Now with Warzone,
I didn't even know
if I was going to really play Warzone.
To be honest,
I don't know what the fuck I was going to do.
Like,
I've always felt like a solo gamer.
Like,
I'll play solos by myself
and somehow,
like,
try to make an entertaining
for my stream.
But now,
like,
playing quads
and,
like,
actually having people to get on with,
it's,
I'll look over and see,
like,
I've been streaming
four and a half hours.
It wouldn't be like.
I feel like I'm,
like just getting warmed up and like I want to have like a good game.
Yeah, yeah.
That's like I feel like I can go two, three, four more hours.
Like I think my last five streams have been like eight hours long.
I personally,
which is unheard of.
I personally think the Addy days.
That's what I'm talking about.
I've never streamed this long.
I mean streaming solo is just I always said streaming solo is just,
it's still like fun if you find the right thing to do solo.
But like there's nothing beats viving with the boys.
Yeah.
Like time.
flies when it's like that. Yesterday I remember looking at my shit and it said two hours, 28 minutes.
I'm like, uh-huh. Just getting started.
Sometimes it is a little.
And I said 4.59. I'm like, damn.
There is a vibe. There is a vibe though sometimes with my solo streams. I feel like I'm way more
engaged with my community. Like I can, I'll play solos and I'm walking around in the middle
of fucking war zone. No one's shooting me. I'm reading chat. Re subs and because re-subs and
subs and donations, whatever.
They'll come in more often when you're like,
it's you in your chat.
So like, I enjoy that aspect of it.
And I have fun doing that as well.
And it's just like a different vibe.
But then once you start going try hard with quads,
it's like chat slows down a little bit and you're more locked in.
So I mean, there's good sides to both of it.
But playing quads seems like time flies.
And I've been enjoying that lately.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Yeah, you were saying that you were loving war zone.
Good.
I said I've been loving it.
Yeah, thank God.
I hate that I love it so much.
In the beginning, I didn't think I would.
But as I'm slowly getting better,
the only thing, it just seems like
every fight is building to building.
They're on top of the building.
They got shit planted in the building,
the bouncing betty's.
And the only way you can get up is a fucking zip line.
And they're just watching the zip line.
Well, you got the trick, though.
You know how to do the trick.
Then you're running and you just get chunked
by two snipers and you're down
and scumps cross the map.
He ain't picking you up.
Well, it's harder for you.
I'm gonna be so annoying.
I'm gonna get you back.
Yeah, it's harder for you guys.
The interceptor.
Like, it's harder for you guys because you guys are playing
live.
So people are obviously going to go to those point of interest
where you guys are at because who doesn't want to fight you guys,
right?
That's them.
When you're playing, like, listen.
It's scum squad.
You just see him fucking Navy.
What is it?
Navy six.
Steel Team Six.
Yeah.
Like that's what it felt like.
I'll tell you what.
I think Warzone will be better if there were no loadouts
And everybody had to fight with whatever random weapons were on the fucking
I hate it until I get my load out
Fuck no
With my load out I'm like find me an enemy
You know how often I get my load out when I play war zone?
Never
I literally just play with whatever I pick up
You're playing a whole different game
Yeah, and get your shit
I don't want to get my shit
In a pub?
No, of course I do
You like playing sandbox?
Just the guns on the game
Give me that.
I can't even think of a fucking,
that's,
Hex loves the sidewinder.
MCW 6.8,
10 shots,
it's an MCW but single shots.
Yeah.
It's so dumb.
Now, they're trolling with the ground loot.
Dude,
the ground loot should be like way better.
No,
that's pretty good.
Nah,
there's some trolley shit on the ground.
Like half the guns,
you don't even want to use.
Yeah.
And I don't know what it's going to be like
when I start shooting it.
Spoil kittens.
I don't know what the gun's going to
be like when I start shooting I'll get in a gun fight just hold it down and it's a single shot
or it's a burst SMG I'm like what the f oh yeah the gold ice show yeah yeah the burst yeah dude
the lockman yeah the lockman the lockman and it's a gold gun I'm like yes I was saying like I don't
use the right low I don't even know I'm gonna hit you guys up for those loadouts because I don't use
those you know the SVA have you used it yeah yeah yeah the single tap is a three burst I didn't know
that lucid's are using it's fucking good as fuck who lose it plays
he's good as fuck
As soon as you switch it to single
the R1 is burst in three
it's pretty dope
he better than
No I like
I like
It kind of hits
You get that initial burst on people
It kind of hits
I haven't had this much fun
On Color Duty
And maybe it's the color
Maybe it's the brightness
Maybe it's like
That we need it
I can't see
Maybe that it's been so bad
That this is like good
I only play resurgence
So I don't play that
That RPG shit
Where I can't see shit
Ever
I don't like
Have you guys
Have you guys play the
The resurgence was this like fog the entire time?
Yeah, Vandal.
Yeah.
Have you played it?
Yeah, that's the, I don't like that shit.
No, yeah.
They're literally the, the, uh, announcer in the game.
He'll come on and be like, all right, guys, fog's going down.
And I'm like, motherfuckers, take the fog out completely.
Yeah.
Yeah, what's the point?
Like, stop being creative.
Don't get too creative.
Like, relax.
Yeah, yeah.
Spend that energy elsewhere.
You know what I'm saying?
Yeah.
Uh, I don't know.
Overall, listen, I got nothing bad to say about the, the, the, the,
game itself.
Yeah, I wish there were more, like in resurgence, there's like a paintball field.
There's some other random shit, more open areas.
But in like the actual war zone map, whatever it's called, fucking Erzakistan or that we're playing, it's like, it's just nothing by buildings and buildings.
Yeah, they need to turn on paintball bullets again.
Like put on, put on just a different like your gun, you could use normal.
You could use like MW3 gun sound or like paintball bullets or some shit.
Yeah, they did that so that they could get sponsors because the blood obviously was too gory.
So they did the paintball mode so that we can get sponsors.
Oh, yeah, yeah, that is true.
Mark.
I mean, I don't know why they continue.
It's like, I get, like, nobody's immersed in this shit.
Nobody believes that they're a Navy SEAL team.
No, you can't say it.
There's definitely some dads out there.
Yeah, bro.
We saw, no, there is, was it us?
Probably a bigger majority.
We were playing.
Was it us when there was a team of four in like a chopper and they just kept like hovering over us?
I forget who I was playing with, but they were just moving like a Navy SEAL team.
Oh yeah.
Like they were just raining shots, get back in the chopper, like hover over.
They had like, gung, gung, gung, gung, gong, gong, gong, gong, gong.
Just like out of the side of the chopper.
One dude swooping down.
Like, and then they pick him back up.
They're out of there.
They're refueling at the gas station.
Like, everybody, they get out of the.
And then they watch certain, like, positions while they feel like.
Yeah, they're so bad, but they like, they like, they make it fun.
I love that shit.
Yeah, I like I'm experiencing Call of Duty from like a brand new perspective with my boys from home, right?
The pill push a motherfuckin'all fucking CDs.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I see them playing and they're just like, they're so immersed in it that I'm like, oh, man, like it's, it's good to see like people seeing this.
They're down to camp on top of the building.
Yeah, the whole time.
Circles coming to us.
Yeah, yeah.
There's 10 minutes left in the fucking game.
Yeah.
The circle's coming as their hill here.
Yeah, they play as like the hunted instead of the hunters.
Yeah.
They just wait out.
Yeah.
I'm like, I'm like, they'll see us.
Like, they'll be at the tall blue building.
And like, they'll see us coming down going up the fucking.
And they just can't play.
They see me fucking let my shit go early.
I'm shooting them where I'm playing.
They're like, how the fuck do that?
Like, they'll see us coming from afar and they have a whole, they got the whole setup.
They start planting claymores at the fucking.
That shit's great.
Whatever the zip lines.
They're planting clay more.
They got Betty bombs up the steps.
It's funny.
There's different dynamics for people to play.
Which makes it fun.
Yeah.
This year, my family and I are going to take a trip to Tokyo.
And in the last weekend alone, there's been a fucking massive earthquake.
You know, obviously our thoughts with the people affected by it.
And then there was a plane that crashed on the runway.
Did you see that?
Wait, what?
A big-ass plane landed and crashed into a soft.
smaller plane that was that was driving by right there.
Yeah.
Toasted the other plane.
Smoked it. All the fire that you see on this plane is gasoline from the other one.
Now, this is someone's fault.
Like the dude who conducts the fucking traffic?
Yeah.
Imagine you've seen this.
Heidi.
Yeah.
Look at that.
Some of the stuff that was on the plane, they're like, uh,
look how fucking big that plane is.
Yeah.
I mean, the other plane got toast, dude.
disintegrated.
Gosh, I didn't even see it.
Yeah.
Yeah, so.
Did you guys see that,
I don't know where it was,
some politician got stabbed in the neck by that guy?
Also in Japan.
That was in Japan?
I think so.
God, damn.
Dude, he was right in front of him
and the guy, like, hit him with, like, a jab
and then, like, forced him down.
Right here.
But I don't know if they actually went through it,
it went into the collar.
It is collar, like.
No, I think he went,
yeah, I don't know if, I mean,
I don't know what I'm saying though
I was like
Juggler man went straight for the jugular man
Went straight for the jugular
What just some crazy
Rando and a politician
A reporter being swarmed
The second that I saw that said
I've seen the setting a million times
Where a reporter's talk
Or a political person's talking
And then there's a fucking revolver
Like out of the
Some nuts shit
Yeah yeah
But this time was a fucking knife
Brutal dude
I'm just
Right to the neck
Like he tried to
Have you watched
Leave the World Behind
Have you?
Should we?
I think so.
Is it good?
You haven't?
No.
You should.
It's fired?
Oh, yeah.
What the fuck is it?
Talk to me.
What is it?
It is.
Leave the world behind.
The woman and her husband are Ethan Hawke.
In the house with the other, with the dad and his daughter.
That right?
Yeah.
It was gas.
I've seen it.
Like they run at Airbnb, but they come home.
Dude.
Tell them the whole, tell him how it ends.
Well, I'm trying to, I'm pretty.
Okay.
I'm pretty sure the ending piss me off.
Okay, the ending did not piss me off.
But listen, before, let's not go any further.
Is that Dr. Strange?
No.
No, he's not.
What'd been cool if he were?
Marsa, Mar's his name?
I enjoyed the movie.
I always say his name wrong, but he's a fucking excellent actor.
He's one of my favorite actors.
What's his name?
Mara, Mahershala Ali.
So good.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that.
You should watch it.
Watch it tonight.
It was a good.
It's good.
I just think it ended and I was like, wait, it's over.
So then I gave it.
How about this?
Have you seen Greenland?
Yeah.
It's like Greenland.
Fuck yeah.
Yeah.
I love that shit.
Yeah.
It's really fucking good.
I enjoyed it.
The ending, the end of, too enough, too enough, too enough.
Way too much, Matthew.
I'll watch it tonight.
No trailer.
No trailer.
Just watch it as fucking fine.
I didn't watch any trailers.
I went in there knowing what to expect.
So it's like an end of time.
movie.
Yeah.
But those are my favorite.
I love those types of movies.
Yeah, yeah.
This was really good.
Really fucking good.
The ending, I thought was almost perfect.
I know people are going to be like, what?
But that's all I'll say.
All right.
But it is a very polarizing ending.
Like some people love it.
Some people hate it.
That's fine.
Nick hates it.
That's fine.
Apparently.
I just remember being weirded out that it was over.
No, it was so good.
The setup, the build up and the way it ended, it was like really good.
Did you see it?
You don't watch it.
Don't look up was, I love that movie.
I like, don't look up.
too yeah which one did you like more
this one really I'll watch this one
I fucking love the one cup
yeah I haven't watched the one oh yeah I like that one
the one movie that I did not like
personally and I know people are gonna be fucking mad at this
I have to say it I'll never watch it again
and I wasn't entertained by it but I didn't say wow
Killers of the Flower Moon
I don't see it
Killards of the Flower I love
Leo DiCaprio ending
Scorsacy
think about that
listen to what I'm saying
Leo DiCaprio and Scorsese
and I was like
Oh it wasn't good
A lot of people loved it
Hutch loved it
My mom loved it
Indian Reservation
that found oil
And became like the wealthiest people
And then it's like a fight for power
With them?
Yeah sort of
More like a fuck for power
What I mean
Like people were marrying them
And then I mean I can't tell you
Like they wanted
So it was on an Indian reservation
and then
let me guess
business people wanted to come in
and you should watch it
you should watch it
because it is
it is gonna win
like uh like
pictures like I don't know
I don't know why I didn't like it
usually that's like the perfect movie
that I the sort of movie
that I would fucking fall in love with
but yeah
yeah what's up what is it
and 30 minutes though
yeah that's probably why though too
because I did sit through
sit through it the whole time
like I may I scheduled it
the same way that I scheduled
Oppenheimer
to watch it
with uninterrupted
left my phone
out in my office
I don't need to watch
that.
Yeah.
That one you should
watch 100%
like tonight
that shows fucking
fire.
Oppenheimer.
How long
are like movies
normally?
Like two?
Two hours?
Two and a half?
Three hours,
four hours
for like the
director's cut
of that Marvel movie?
Oppie got that
sloppy top.
In the movie?
I don't think so.
We didn't see it
in the movie
but I'm sure he did.
That motherfucker was
slanging.
By Florence.
Huge.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That aside, there's a lot of exciting things coming this year.
Look, I think we have a bunch of cool projects planned out for the rest of the year.
It's ultimately going to be up to execution.
I, for one, and I have started out this year, like, very encouraged and very excited about it, man.
There's a lot of great.
What else is there to be?
Negative.
Exactly.
Yeah.
Why?
Good question.
That's the old me.
And sometimes I think back to that and like, why?
Yeah.
Why even, like, at least lie to yourself.
Yeah.
And that's what 2024 is about.
The little voice in your head.
Yeah.
Not everyone has.
We're working on our self-talk.
Self-talks.
Our inner monologue.
Monologue.
There it is.
I have several.
That's.
And I hear them.
That's called, you ever seen split?
At night, I hear them.
At night, I hear my mom.
Do you ever turn into the animal?
Yeah, and I just brought Jude walked in once and I was like hanging from the ceiling.
She's like, what the fuck?
And I'm like, it's the voice in my head.
Or I was going to say exorcism, but we don't talk about that stuff around here.
