Like, that Mexican OT is a cool guy, but some of them are not cool. Some of them suck really bad. Yeah, I was very close to being a jugglo. I was very close to being like an M&M like monster energy tattoo white kid. I can see that.
Starting point is 00:21:27 Like not wigger, but like trailer trash where it's like I don't, you know, I don't wear the big shorts. But I'm like, I'm punching holes in every. everybody's house yeah i mean like i'm going to the marines and i'm going to be like the craziest marine and not even like a good one i'm just going to hurt a lot of people yeah like grandma wanted me to go to the army so it could have been army or it could have been like uh yeah like straight up like like trailer trash yeah i did i did i did grow up in a trailer park me too yeah yeah you know uh yeah it could have been any of those things yeah for real i could i could i would have just been an amazon warehouse worker for like ever yeah yeah yeah
Starting point is 00:22:02 and shout out to my amazon warehouse workers you guys keep us running. That shit, dude, everybody that does rule. I know a lot of fighters who do that because you can make your own schedule and stuff. Yeah. Like, guys, like one of the kickboxing gyms I train at, it's like half Amazon warehouse workers. And they're like, oh, yeah, it's the worst fucking job on planet Earth. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:20 It's terrible. Yeah, they go, you can work like four shifts for like 12 hours at a time. Yeah. You can do like three for like 36 hours. Yeah. My girl, they go, we'll give you therapy because you're going to fucking need it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:31 My girlfriend had to do therapy because she worked at an Amazon warehouse. I had to do therapy because I worked at Facebook and I was a content moderator. I was a part of this big class action lawsuit where like they basically had us watching live leak videos like eight hours a day. Oh my God. So like basically as a content moderator, like your job was to like remove the videos that like violated terms of service. 90% of the time it was music or movies. People from the Philippines upload like Mystic River with like the like Filipino dubs and you just, you know, you click. it because Paramount sent a complaint and goes to Facebook and goes to legal and it goes
Starting point is 00:23:08 to us. Right. So you were the real guy? Yeah, it was the real guy. You were the actual guy that was doing that buzzkill. Like, you can't upload this. YouTube says no and I would remove it because the AI scraper at the time, it was like still new.
Starting point is 00:23:18 It didn't get everything. Now it gets everything. This job doesn't exist anymore. This is in like 2015. AI replaced you. Uh, yeah, literally. But 10% of those videos would be like just a grainy video in India of a guy hanging his own son. Oh my God.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Or a guy just saw. like chopping a dog in half with a machete and that violates terms of service because it's a guy chopping a dog in half with a machete and then so you click on that about 15 to 25 times a day eight hours a day you know and you could work six days six days a week if you wanted overtime so sometimes I would and yeah it made people crazy yeah it made people completely insane like you they were clockwork oranging you pretty much yeah yeah yeah yeah for $16 an hour in Austin and from like 2015 to like 2018 when like that it's nothing now it was nothing then yeah they were like paying you more to work at McDonald's at the time yeah yeah yeah and like the therapy was also

Starting point is 00:47:32 I remember, like, I was, like, when I moved here and I, like, would watch guys, like, do, like, 15 minutes at Velveter Room. and then like get a basket of chicken wings and like $20 I was like dude I can't wait yeah yeah because for the first two or three years you're just like what am I what am I I'm still like that I said I get that way sometimes I'm like what am I'm lucky I'm very lucky but like dude it's hitting me all the time yeah I literally like I'm like I'm too I'm so fine everything's going great yeah this is so this is so cool so glad I get to be here love this and it doesn't even matter I just get to do spots and it's so awesome and then like I know that I go to bed and then I wake up the next morning I think I'm like I don't
Starting point is 00:48:10 I think I'm a fucking failure. I don't think this is ever going to work for me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's a constant battle, especially since I've moved here. It's been a constant battle back and forth. Dude, Austin fucking, Austin's, if you're not, like, I feel bad for people who move here from, like, like, dude, like I was talked to Gardini, like, from places like Philly and, like, New York. I know people who moved here from L.A., and I'm like, the city's butt compared to the, like, if you're from a place, like, where we're from, when I moved to Austin, I was like, damn, this is. places badass big city yeah big city whatever and I'm like I mean I grew up kind of close to Houston Houston's ugly it stinks all time like Austin's a for what it's worth it's kind of a pretty town but if you're from like San Diego like if you're a comic from like Manhattan and you move here I mean but dude everybody that I talked to not everybody I'd say like 70 people like we'll be drunk at a bar like after a spot or whatever and they're like I hate this place dude I got to get out when is this bubble going to pop everyone everyone they all hate it everybody hates it dude like I like we're just so
Starting point is 00:49:10 This is weird, because I do like it. I do like it here. But I mean, so like, we're from places that fucking are dog. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like, I've been here long enough to like where I'm like, I kind of get it. I understand. But like, when I first, yeah, when I first moved to the first few years, I was like, what are you guys complaining about?
Starting point is 00:49:24 These places, there's a river you can just jump in it. There's Mexican food everywhere. Where I'm from, the only thing you get to do is you just get cancer. Because you live next to a place that makes oil. Yes. You know, like you get cancer when you're 50 in the city gives you like a hundred grand. Yeah. You're going to get some lung infection from,
Starting point is 00:49:40 from the fumes coming off the steel mill Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And you get a little settlement, then you get to get a little house. It's just a few miles away. Yeah, yeah. And then you die at 62, you know. And, but the last four years are you just kind of being like,
Starting point is 00:49:54 you know, like, like fallout, like a fucking, like, like, like, you're one of those. Dude, like, like, other than other reason I moved because like, the town I'm from called Pasadena, like, they've done studies on the people who live there, like the cancer rates are fucking crazy. because there's a highway called 225. It's literally called the carcinogenic coast.
Starting point is 00:50:14 Like that's kind of the joke. And it's just plastics plants, oil refineries, and steel mills, and paper mills. And that's it. That's all it is. And you, like, the life expectancy for the people who live in that area is like 15 years less than the rest of the country. Really? Yeah, it's just dog shit. That's crazy.
Starting point is 00:50:29 Yeah, it's just cancer. And, like, sometimes you'll get a little bit of money. Like, my dad worked for a place that he worked for a plant that literally blew up. and he knew this dude that you ever said movie office space yeah yeah so there's a scene where the guy's in the wheelchair because you got hit by an 18 wheeler and he was like it's a best day in my life i just made 10 million dollars one of my dad's buddies was like that both of his legs got blown off because there's a massive like gas pipe explosion and then he lost like his hand his his arm like up to the middle of his wrist and like half of his jaw was blind he was literally
Starting point is 00:50:58 blown like 60 feet holy shit died twice but he got paid like fucking 30 40 million dollars and like dude whenever i whenever we would hang out with him me my dad would go We're there because a dude a badass pool He moved to like Bel Air, Nice area of Houston We'd go over there
Starting point is 00:51:12 Dude, dude He'd be drinking beer Like kind of like Fucking two face From the dark night He'd be all fucked up Leaking up the side of his jeep And he's like god damn

Starting point is 00:51:44 like you said we get to meet like you get to meet like hot women that are like like legitimately retarded you know like that shit's great dude I I do like it here it's all kinds of different kinds of people new people I almost I told her about we were talking about this I almost hit one of the like big comedian
Starting point is 00:52:00 girls in the town with my car like maybe three months ago really yeah she was on her phone dude and she just like jay walked while I was turning right walk straight into traffic Dude, I was this close And she introduced me to Creek And I was like, hey, I'm not trying to be weird or nothing But I almost fucking killed you with my van like two days ago
Starting point is 00:52:19 And she goes, oh, that was you? And I was like, yeah, she's like, I don't really pay attention to where I'm walking. And I was like, what are you talking about? You live in a major city. Yeah. Also, in Texas, people just, it doesn't matter. Like, you know, whatever.
Starting point is 00:52:31 But like, yeah, I didn't know what to say to that. I was like, I was going to apologize to you, but you look like you don't. don't care no it doesn't even matter to you yeah yeah i i i've noticed like i don't there's not like a like traffic when people are honking nobody really honks at each other i feel like everybody's scared to everybody's got a gun my friend of mine told me that she was like was behind this car and like honked at him and then uh they went up like another stoplight and the guy like got around her and like stopped in front of her and like got out of his car
Starting point is 00:52:59 and pulled out a gun uh-huh yeah that happens pretty often that's crazy yeah it's like when i was in pittsburgh um people were like honking like when i was in new jersey too same thing People stick their heads out the window, like, hey, fucking piece of shit, drive you, fuck, fuck, you cock sucker. And I was like, now, Texas isn't like, because, like, I, I swore off road rage, like, three or four years ago for the similar reason that I just had a dude, didn't roll down his window, just waved it. He just gave me one of these. Yeah. And I was like, I don't have one of those in the car. Even if I did, I don't, I don't want to shoot at it.
Starting point is 00:53:33 I don't want to shoot at you. Yeah. Because I don't, because then you're going to shoot at me. and then that bullet, flesh, bone, die. Yo, having it on, just on you like that is, that's so sick. Just to be able to pull it. We were, my buddy and I were in his Miata, and we had, like, he had, like, a naked poster of, like,
Starting point is 00:53:49 he had, like, a fucking, even to, like, some head shop. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it was, like, grand opening of the head shop. They were giving away free posters. And, like, one of the posters, like, a fucking naked lady with, like, a little logo over, or whatever. So we're, like, fucking put it up to the window as we were driving past this guy. We show the guy that fucking, he just, like, just pulls his gun out of us.
Starting point is 00:54:03 Just fucking points. Yeah. Look at these girls. Dude, he's, fuck you, I kill you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, dude, it's, yeah, it's pretty, that's, that's why, like, I love when, like, the Rogan guys, like, the guys in that sphere, man, they crack me up because they're like, you know, when everyone has a gun, nobody has a gun. And I'm like, you're from California.
Starting point is 00:54:23 You're from New York. When everyone has a gun, people shoot and kill each other. Yes, dude. That's what, like, like, oh, that's why there's nobody does road rage. People still road rage here, and they die. There was a guy that, it, like, happened in Houston, I want to say, like, a year ago where he just like mag dumped into a car and killed the whole family because the guy like cut him off that's so crazy went to jail and for the rest of his life but it's like like the people just do that shit you know what i mean and it's like oh everybody has a gun nobody has a gun no there's like 50,000 gun deaths a year in the country i think i'm not like an anti-progun guy i'm just like that's not true that's not a real thing to say because what we love to do is killing we love to kill ourselves with them first and foremost that's probably one of our favorite things to do and then we love to kill kids with them that's probably second number two.
Starting point is 00:55:08 I don't mean we like me and you, but I mean like we... Well. The night is still young. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I like don't... I would never want... I don't think I could carry one in the car.
Starting point is 00:55:21 Yeah, I don't know. It just seems crazy. I do, like, my aunt, huge, huge gun lady. Yeah. Like, we went shooting guns. She's like, you want to come shoot guns with us. I'm like, yeah, I'll go shoot guns with you. And like, even just holding it, dude,
Starting point is 00:55:31 it's like fucking... Kind of makes me nervous, dude. Yeah, it's fucking... I grew up shooting a little bit, so it doesn't, like, bother me. too much but like I don't I never got to a point of comfortability with it where like
Starting point is 00:55:41 yeah like I would just like because when dude I'll be out in about like around town and Austin and I'll see because you can open carry here and I'm like what the fuck what is this? 1880 was this Red Dead 2 yeah what are you doing? Oh to work at the Home Depot guys just right in the back hey where are the uh now I need two by four
Starting point is 00:55:58 I don't mean two by three and a half I need two by four and there's just a huge revolver what do you think's gonna happen in here yeah nobody does mass shooting in home depots I don't know it's like a posturing thing yeah for sure right
Starting point is 00:56:11 you know yeah 100% you know yeah I mean well also it's like I think too like everybody human nature like you want to be in
Starting point is 00:56:20 with your group and if your group wears fucking big iron on his hip like you you're gonna do that shit too like a lot of my dad's friends had guns my dad was always like nah
Starting point is 00:56:31 I think I'll just keep mine in the house because you know like if I take it outside and like you know somebody piss I'll probably just, you know, whatever. Bro, I've lost like five notebooks in the last year. If I had brought my gun out with me, I would have left it at an arm bar or something.
Starting point is 00:56:46 Yeah, yeah, lose my gun. For real, it would have lost it so forth. Dude, I do know his name is Naz. I don't even, dude, I actually don't even know if he's still alive, but he was a buddy of mine from Houston. He had a, he got, like, drunk and with a bunch of, like, money, he, like, pulled out of, like, cash advance or credit card, bought a Draco, like, the guns the rappers have. It's like a mini AK and like a Glock and then like had it in. He had like a big ass lifted truck. He was like a rig welder so he had a ton of like plant money.
Starting point is 00:57:14 And, uh, but he was also a fucking bar tard and an alcoholic. And, uh, I go over to visit him and my buddy Alex Vicker, uh, one night where all, Vickr had this big, like badass like a, you know, apartment in Houston. We'd all get fucked up at. And, uh, I was like, Naz, where's the Draco? Like, pull it out. Like, as a joke. And he's like, ah, man.
Starting point is 00:57:35 I lost it And everybody starts cracking up laughing Because I don't know I'm not in it They all live together And I was like What do you mean you lost it He's like
Starting point is 00:57:43 I have no idea where it's at bro I was like He's like yeah The Glock too Yeah I don't know where that's at either And I was like You lost you I was like you're fucking kidding me
Starting point is 00:57:52 And he was like Nah man I was out drinking We were in Second Ward man We were driving around drunk I was in the truck Like I think I think I like I went out to one of those
Starting point is 00:58:01 Abandon baseball fields out there And second war We were shooting it Probably in the field out there I don't know. I'm like, dude, that gun's registered to you, but also it's in the second ward. If somebody finds that gun, they're going to use it for crime. Yeah, well, it's going to be some fat kid that has to play outfield.
Starting point is 00:58:14 He's going to go out there, center field. Well, so the story goes that he ended up, he did end up finding the Draco. He had literally, like, I guess in a paranoid state, he never found the Glock. He, like, hit it under the wheel well of his own truck. Whoa. So it was driving around with it for a while, but he never found his pistol. Right next to the underglo? Yeah.
