I'm gonna do is we just sit here like this?
Yeah, just sit here like this.
This is my third podcast.
I know, it's all you do, Theos.
I know.
Who else did you do?
Let me, matter of fun, let me crank this shit up so I can hear you.
Crank, will you have a hearing anything to your phone?
Yeah, you are.
You are busy, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
No, it didn't even work.
Wait, so you could.
It makes them louder.
You couldn't hear me before?
Are you?
No, I could, I could.
Okay.
Wait, what?
I'm so confused.
It makes it louder.
I know, I'm so confused, though.
Hold on.
I'm like looping.
The vertigo got me fucked up and I'm like, you're playing on your phone.
I got to think you're trolling me.
What was this?
What was this?
It just makes it louder.
It's like an app.
Oh, it's an app and it connects to the thing.
Yes.
But so does that give you the vertigo, the Bluetooth Wi-Fi ways?
No, that's just like, I get it sometimes, I guess, from streaming that night, like playing
game and shit, like the first-person shooters.
But, like, I think it's part of, like, if you have hearing, hearing problems, vertigo is part of that.
Yeah, I know, because it has to do with all the inner ear stuff.
Yes.
But I don't have hearing problems.
I mean, sometimes that people say, I go, what?
You slept wrong or you worked out too hard.
Are we live?
Yeah, yeah, we're alive.
We just, that's how we do it.
Does they go right anyway?
Yeah, we don't go, bro.
Dude, it's good to see you, man.
Yes, sir, bro.
I've been watching you for a minute.
Dude, you're, you're an interesting character, bro.
Thank you.
Super interesting.
I hope in a good way.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Well, bro, I was like, I was like, I saw a clip of you talking to Kai about the condition that you have.
Mm-hmm.
And then I saw I googled it.
And it says like there's like a hundred reported like people.
It's super rare.
Well, I mean, bro, it's, it says there's one in a million, less than one in a million.
But then there's only like a hundred reported.
That's crazy how you found that stack.
And not many people don't know that.
I think it's one in 500 in the country.
It's some crazy-ass one in five thousand.
Yes, it's fewer than 100 cases of Kenny Caffe syndrome
have ever been reported in medical literature worldwide.
Well, good that you could see that.
I can't read any of those words.
So like the odds of you being you are like that
and then successful on social media are like astronomically impossible.
That's what I'm saying.
I'm one of one.
Yeah, it's impossible.
Like the numbers don't make sense
There could be a couple of Bradley Martins
But maybe maybe yeah
There's no J shots
Only one
I mean you're one of one
You're definitely one of one
Because you do your own thing
You have a great luck
But I don't know anyone
That has ever eaten food
Without teeth for over a year or two
I was gumming that shit down bro
Like
Is that where you got that's where you got that from
No one produces music
Or makes music with hearing aids
You know
You're still
getting over the government down.
Yeah.
Bro, you have, it's funny.
You're interesting.
You got good energy, man.
Thank you, bro.
Yeah.
So you're from Long Island, right?
Yes.
Yeah.
Italian.
What's that?
Are you Italian?
Yeah.
I'm actually two other things.
Can you guess?
I'm not going to get offended.
So, just guess.
Puerto Rican?
I don't know.
Bro.
Do you look me up?
No, I swear to God.
That's weird.
I got it?
Yes.
Okay.
Which camera,
looking at. They're all capturing me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I'm nervous. I'm not in frame.
Well, I think this one's me and that one's you. This, because I'm like, this one's over here.
I'm like, I mean, here? Yeah. So with Puerto Rican. And what's the other one?
Oh, Italian Puerto Rican makes so much sense. You're not got to guess the other one.
No, the other one I won't guess. Greek. Greek. But I'm mainly like, you know,
old street thing. Greek. So are you when you, did you, so you had this since birth, the condition?
Yeah. Um. Did were your parents like, go?
he's going to be cooked or like, what was...
No, I had a seizure.
So you just, right when you were born,
seizure.
Like, what do you mean?
I like...
Bopped out and shocked the world.
With a seizure.
He was already shocking.
No, I had a seizure when I was like one or two.
Okay.
They're like, this is why he had the seizure.
And then they diagnosed me with something.
Did they know what it was right then?
I'm not too sure.
Maybe.
They probably knew it was something.
I don't know.
It's so crazy to get into.
Like, I don't know, like,
all the whole of detail, but I know, like,
I wasn't producing
calcium and different, like, vitamins.
Like, I don't produce growth hormone. I have to take
growth hormone chest because I have growth hormone deficiencies.
Oh, you are? You taking growth? We get Aki a little bit.
Damn, yo, that's kind of sick.
And I'm on testosterone, too. I recently started taking tea.
Oh, you're on that. Damn, so you're like me.
But I'm more prescribed it, but, dude, if I work out, I've just been so busy
I haven't been able to work out. I'll get, like, yoked, you know?
Whoa, so you're on growth and test?
Yeah.
That's like Hulk, right?
Yes, the best.
Do people like try to like buy that NFL players try to buy that stuff, right?
Everyone tries to buy it.
Like to get prescribed growth hormone is one of the hardest things to get, period.
Is it better than tests?
By itself, I would say for most people like longevity-wise recovery, by itself, like if it was just completely independently used, yeah, I would say so.
less like downsides to it unless you like really abuse it yeah as far as like just longevity like
your skin your your but if you abuse it then you could have like insulin desensitivity and
it's all been regulated one point five yeah growth hormone is their day crazy but in unison oh
the best it's a needle too yeah yeah yeah yeah both of them they wanted to give me the cream for
the testosterone because what happened was I go to the and and the chronologist like my whole life
Because this disease things affect your endocrine system?
Yes.
Yes.
And they prescribe me growth home in my whole life.
And then I'm like, yo, like, I need to get, like, I was, my heart was palpitating.
Like I had low energy and like just different things.
And I asked my doctor, he's like, your testosterone levels are low.
So we're going to, I'm like, well, can you give me something?
Well, we can, but it might affect certain things.
like your ability to have kids and stuff like that.
But we didn't even get into that.
I think I'm fine with that.
Like that's just like they had to take test to do all that.
But I'm fine with that.
I can probably have kids.
But if they're going to take some time,
but you will get better, like mentally, physically.
And I do feel a lot better, bro.
Like my voice hasn't dropped that much.
I haven't been getting that much hair,
but I've noticed like I have a little bit more hair in my legs and shit like that.
But it's a lot better than what I had, man.
I had no energy like that.
So it changed your life.
That was dead.
When did you start that?
I don't know, two, three months ago.
Oh, really?
But it's also like a small dose.
Like I want him to give me a little bit bigger dose, you know?
Just hung up a little bit.
Yeah.
Tell me trying to really get like that.
Yeah.
You should.
No, no, I don't know.
I don't know.
I mean, I don't know.
We'll see.
I mean, I want to, I want my voice to get a little bit deeper, you know.
I have a high voice, but I think my voice makes me, you know?
Makes you.
Yeah, absolutely.
So even before you did this, so you did the social media shit, like, it looks like for how long on, it's like 2024? How long are you doing it for?
I want to say the first channel I really started was like three years ago, two years ago. I had a music page.
Yeah.
I was just making like tight beats, like selling beats to artists. I have my own like little company.
That's cool.
I do my own music and I wanted to produce music for like artists. And like no one was finding it really.
And it was hard. It's hard to do a music channel.
Yeah.
I know who's going to listen to your music if they don't know who you are.
Yeah.
So I did like one review of Prime with Logan Paul's Prime and KSI.
And it's kind of like, you know, 4,000 of views came into my job at Home Depot.
And everyone was like, yeah, I worked at Home Depot for four years.
Sick.
And then we're like, yo, we saw your videos.
Thought your 4-U page.
I'm like, what the hell is the 4-U page?
I don't know.
I needed it.
And I kept doing snack reviews.
And then I did like fast food reviews.
And I did restaurant reviews.
and I just built up this crazy following for my food
and I moved into streaming,
moved back into music,
and then I just did all the difference.
And then in between that,
I worked my way up to a manager position at Home Depot
and then I got fired
because this guy attacked me
and I defended myself.
He both got fired.
He attacked you at Home Depot?
Yeah, he was like bullying me and shit.
Like, I never really got bullied like that way.
He was just too affectionate, too, like,
and I didn't know him like that.
He was too affectionate?
He was trying to kiss you and shit?
Like, you know, like, pat me on the bag.
Oh, he was like being too much.
Too comfortable.
Yeah.
And it's like, me and you, I can tell like, come through.
But like, if I don't know you like that, like, why are you touching me, you know?
Yeah.
But I'm the type of person that I show love like that.
But if I don't know you, it's like, and the way he was doing it, he was like, he would come in and just like, punch me in the stomach out of nowhere.
What the fuck?
He's like, he's like, I could do whatever I want to you.
I'm older than you.
What I'm not.
Yeah.
No, no, you had to fight that guy.
100%.
No, I hit him back, and we both got fired.
He was another employee.
What's up?
Oh, yeah, it was an employee.
He got fired, too.
Yeah, he was...
If I didn't say anything, like...
Because what happened was, the reason I got fire was because I opened my mouth.
He said, like, after I hit him, I'm like, don't touch me.
Like, you get...
Like, I told you not to lay your hands on me.
I keep telling you.
And, like, that's your warning.
He's like, I'm going to kill you.
What, though?
I took that at the threat, because I don't know the...
Well, that is.
He was just someone that worked there in a different department
that would always try to fuck with me.
So I told someone, they took it out like a joke
and I was serious about it.
And we both got fired.
Their corporate system is dogshed.
My dad walks into the store now
because he has to get supplies of dad.
He spits on the floor every time he goes to the hardware aisle.
He just like,
you know, it's crazy to fire you.
But some guy was saying he was going to kill you.
Who worked?
I know. It's bad.
It was a bad situation.
And then, you know, at that time, I was like, all right, I got to double down and really
focus on my TikTok now.
And my dad's going to be on my ass trying to get me to look for a job.
And then I apply for the post office.
I didn't want to work as a mailman.
I didn't want to do it.
But my dad's like, just try it.
You need a job.
Yeah.
I knew I couldn't do it.
I did it for three months.
I got a little bit better.
You were a mailman for three months?
Three months as a post office.
That was a probation.
Inside are you driving the cars?
Well, I couldn't really.
Pedals, Brad.
Yo, I had dreams.
I had dreams for the longest time.
I would have visions and dreams of me and a car.
And I'll be like this.
I couldn't reach the pedals.
And then I got to the post office and I'm in the mail truck and I'm like this with the mail
and fly out of the back.
It was a premonition.
I'm like this.
You knew what was going to happen.
And I'm like, this is the dream.
This is what it all that up to me in a mail truck.
So they had to get me a back cushion.
You bastard
I had to be like this the whole time
So dude I'm driving this mail truck
And like they're pretty fast
I would lean back
I would like
Lose grip of the wheel you know
Yo it was crazy
But I got fire
Not because they couldn't drive
But because they said
You're hearing and vision
I'm going to prohibit how you do the job
And I was getting pretty good at it
But I was slow
Like you had to be really fast
Like I'm short
I'm short stature
My stamina isn't that good
I have a weird like
stamina bill and all that.
So, like, I couldn't,
I couldn't be as fast as they needed me to be,
but the fact that they said that,
like my hearing and vision,
that was just,
that was effed up.
And I couldn't, like,
fight back and retaliate
because I wasn't in the union yet.
When you get past probation,
you get in the union,
I was two days off from getting past probation.
And they said your character bill is not enough.
Yeah.
They said,
then from there,
kept doing my TikTok thing,
kept streaming here and there.
I wasn't even streaming on a good setup.
I was streaming on an iPhone.
camera pointed on me
and then the TV I didn't have a good
setup like this
wait wait wait it was a ghetto
set up right so you had an iPhone
that was pointing I had an iPhone
I had an iPhone I play Fortnite and there's a dual
camera feature on TikTok
and it looks at you
and it looks at whatever you wanted to point to
you were streaming you and the screen
and I still had like 1,500 viewers
or something on TikTok like I was doing good
and then like Christmas I got
like a good
like a good setup.
I built it myself,
like a laptop
and a capture card
and all that.
And I started streaming
but like,
my dad's like,
you still gotta get a job.
I don't care
if you got to get a job.
You still got to get a job.
Finally,
I got a job of this oil company
and I was selling oil to customers.
Like I was a credit representative.
So like,
if a grandma called up,
Brad,
we got a crazy story.
Hey, I'm sorry.
What the f*** are you selling oil?
I was selling oil to like
old people, young people.
What do you mean oil though?
Oil.
Like oil.
Like,
like a sheep
houses.
Wait, what?
Some houses need oil to heat.
Oh, bro.
I thought you talked about
some like barrels of oil
to like gas stations.
No,
no,
but it was almost,
they were like oil.
We would send trucks
to fill their oil.
What is they called?
Like a furnace,
right?
Yeah,
yeah.
You talking about the canister?
Like,
yeah,
people,
people don't have,
like,
I don't know the word.
It's like,
I,
Look, I lost all my freaking thought on this job.
That's okay.
Gas burn, are we talking about a gas?
And somebody will use oil.
It's different.
Yeah, exactly.
Okay.
People that use oil, they have to have Phillips, you know, every couple months.
So if they didn't pay their money, they wouldn't get oil, leave freezing.
Can I curse?
Yeah, of course.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
I don't really curse that much on my own, whatever.
So like, get this old lady, like old, you know, Margaret, like, I'm cold.
You can hear dying.
Bro, you are hilarious.
You didn't pay your bills.
Like, I can't get you oil.
She's like, I'm freezing.
Yo, you were funny, dude.
She's like, Jerome, please send me the oil.
She's like, I'm in three jackets.
One of them is a tennis jacket.
I'm like, miss, just pay half your bill
and I'll get you a delivery.
And it was so effed up, Brad,
because you had to call your supervisor
and beg these people to get oil from these customers.
Anyway, F all that.
While I was there,
I was like planning out
how the hell I was going to leave this place
I had a calculator that I was putting numbers in
every day. How much do I need to get out of this place?
How much would it take? Can I combine this salary and the job at home?
I would leave work, Brad. Go home.
Eat food on TikTok live and get $3 to $500 in two hours.
Wow.
And I know that's not a lot, but at the time, like, that was big for me.
That's a lot of money.
two hours. Like that was, like, just to eat food and talk. That was huge.
Oh, that's a lot of money. And on top of that, you know, I was getting mad money for my TikTok
videos because I started doing this new POV style where like you were recording your nine to five,
your lunch break, you know the POV, like POV, like POV, you're single, the POB. It was a whole thing
at the time. And Hub's life, annoying Merillo, I always show hominage for them. They started that whole
trend and I'm like, you said you show what for them? What do you show for them, homage?
I show them
Homage. Homage.
Amage.
Amage.
Not the right word?
Homage, yes.
Homage.
Like you were honing in.
Job is honed in.
I'm an idiot.
No, you're good, you're good.
I'm going to graduate third grade.
You're hilarious, bro.
I show them honage.
Yeah.
Homage.
Wait, is it home or honed?
No, you got me fucked up now.
It's homage.
You know, you got me saying it fucked up.
It's homage, bro.
Holy shit.
Homage.
Homage.
Oh,
whatever.
You're showing him love.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Show support to them.
And I'm like, I'm going to film one video, see how it does.
Come on the work the next day.
Two, four million views.
One of my most viral videos yet.
Do another one.
What are most of the comments you get?
Well, they're all hate comments.
What are they saying?
They hate on the look?
Hate on the look, hate on the style.
Hate on me chewing.
Yeah.
And like, this guy chews like a garbage.
disposal. He looks like, you know,
that's a good one. My freaking left nipple, like
looks like he's not from the planet. Like,
all this, bro. I used to see all these different comments.
The comments, like, evolved.
Yeah. Okay, but now, now they're like,
who here loves Jashok? Who's been a day shock
supporters since day one? And then people make videos now,
they're like, y'all switched up, y'all hated
on Jashok, and now ever since he went to shimmer you,
y'all love him so much. And it's cool to see that.
Yeah. Because now I have all these new eyes that really do support me.
and you can see who the real one are, who the fake one's not, but like, it's just cool to see that.
You said you didn't get bullied much, huh?
I never got bullied, no.
I saw a video of someone saying that, like, I think you were kind of talking about this,
and someone was saying, you were saying something like how you beat someone up
and some guy made a TikTok.
I was on the Growing Up Italian podcast.
That was my first podcast with Sabino and Rocco.
I said, yeah, if anyone ever tried to, like, step on my toes, I beat shit out of them,
Mo.
Like, I can defend myself.
And then some guy confirmed it.
Confirmed one.
Did you ever see the video of some guy confirming it?
Oh, that was.
He just like a skit.
Yeah.
Okay.
I don't know that guy.
Okay, okay.
But, um, like, I'm tough.
Like, I know I look small and everything, but like, I know, like, I have the mentality
to fight, bro.
Like, I know how to fight.
I know how to defend myself.
I know how to stick up for myself.
And the real thing, though, is, Brad, like, I never had a problem getting, I never got
bullied because I always fit into every group.
I was friends with the jocks.
I was friends with the nerds.
The entertainment people, like, girls, the guy, like, I was always fending into
people.
So no one ever bothered me.
You know? Because I always made my way into...
You definitely have that kind of personality.
In high school, I was the king of my high school for two years at all.
I mean, this is the first time we've met, and we've been here for however long we've literally been doing this podcast.
And the vibes are just amazing.
I know. I feel good right now.
The vibes are good. And I got the vertigo.
I started this being like, I can't even walk straight.
I'm making it go away.
You are.
What do you got over here to drink, man?
I'm seeing some different beverages.
That's a little, uh, Amigos Talk.
It's a little tequila pre-mixed if you want to try.
But we have it cold if you want.
I don't drink anymore.
This is gonna, this is Pop-Tah Prime.
Yeah, you could try that if you want.
Yeah, try that.
Have you tried that one yet?
I haven't tried the Pop-Tron one, no.
You're gonna do it with me?
Yeah, I've already had it.
It's Shock O'clock.
I'm down.
Now I want this one.
All right.
Crack that bad boy open.
All right.
It's Bradley Martin O'clock.
It's Prime O'clock.
Shock O'clock.
Yes, sir.
Cheers.
Let's get the sipping.
Holy shit.
It's better when it's cold, though, too.
Holy crap.
But it does taste like a,
I straight up you in the head, man.
It does straight up taste like a pop tar.
It does.
And pop tar is always,
the blueberry was always my favorite too.
Dude,
I want to get my own,
because they send me stuff all the time.
I want to get a J-Sach prime flavor.
A flavor?
That'd be pretty cool.
You gotta hit a blow again.
Tell them right now.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Say, hey, can I get up prime flavor?
Can we get one for you and me?
I'm down.
I need like a meathead flavor.
Thank you, sir.
Holy shit.
Dude, turning is not it for me.
I turn it.
I'm like,
the whole room goes.
Okay.
Anyway, I want to tell you, so I did those videos.
I was putting the numbers in the calculator.
And eventually, I got to the point where I'm like, I could leave.
I'm going to quit.
I love how you remembered the thing you last left off on.
Yes.
To be continued.
You're sharp, dude.
Thank you, sir.
Go ahead.
Go ahead.
So I called my friend Charles.
He was a supervisor at the time.
He trained me.
And I'm like, bro, I'm going to let you know, like one day I'm going to leave here.
And when I make it big, I'm going to take you with me.
And we'll make it happen because he trained me.
He always believed in me.
He trained you in what?
Hmm?
He trained you in what?
He trained me for my position.
Okay.
At the job.
Yeah.
Like he was my trainer and then he became a supervisor.
This was the oil company thing.
He's still there.
Okay.
Charles leave.
So now I would text him on the group chat thing and he still has the messages
of like me saying, you know, I'm going to leave soon.
Like I'm getting out of here.
Like I believe in myself too much to be here.
And he's telling me he has all the Zoom messages.
But like, one of my,
One day I got up and I had to go to the bathroom, like my stomach was bugging, right?
I love the way you tell stories.
I had that number two protocol.
And you had to put yourself in bathroom time.
You had 10 minutes to do whatever you got to do.
You got to think of shit.
You get 10 minutes to do it.
This is when you work there.
Yeah, because the call center.
Got it.
So the phone were going all day.
And if you were going to go to bathroom, 10 minutes.
Got to the point where I had to send an email where like, hey.
You know, my stomach's bugging.
I need more than 10 minutes than a.
Bulls shit, bad?
Bulls shit.
Unpaid hour lunch break, whatever.
I was like, you know what?
If I got to go to the bathroom one more time
and I can find something to put all my stuff in,
I'm leaving.
I'm looking around.
I'm trying to get out.
I'm texting my friend.
I'm getting out of here.
I go to the bathroom.
I come out.
I'm shaking my head.
I'm like, man, it's not going to happen.
It's beautiful Spanish woman comes out
with three big black hefty.
bags, garbage bags.
I was like, could I have one of those
garbage bags? She goes, sure.
Take the bag,
put it over my back, like SpongeBob,
put all my shit in it.
And I freaking deuce.
Supervisor walks out with my desk. She's like, where are you going?
I'm like, I'm leaving. I'm done.
This is it.
Manager comes into my,
she comes in, she comes in, she's like, takes me
near her office. She's like, what are you doing? I'm like, I'm leaving.
I'm like, it's not worth me being here.
Like, I'm getting shit on my customers all day.
I don't like the energy here.
She's like, well, I believe in you and whatever you're going to do, like, you're going to do good.
I'm like, thank you.
So I didn't need you to sign a piece of paper.
She gives me a piece of loose leaf, and I just say, I'm done.
And I signed it as J-shock because I wanted it as your own, and I left his J-shock.
I swear, bro.
This is a real story.
I swear to God, I'm not kidding.
All the shit is real.
I'm not going to lie to you.
But the fact that you decided to shine as J-shock.
and not your actual name is pretty funny.
It's cool.
And I left.
You know,
I came home.
My parents wanted to kill me.
I had to leave the house for like a couple hours,
figure out.
And you mean you left as JayShod
because you knew that you were going to be doing the social media stuff.
Yeah.
I mean,
I believed in myself that much,
you know?
That first month,
I'm sitting there trying to find work.
Like,
I'm DM in places.
I'm trying to work with different people.
And I just,
I'm like,
this is real.
I got to really,
like,
I just quit my job.
but my parents weren't giving me the time.
They were like, you gotta find a drive.
You gotta find this.
You have to understand like,
when you live with your parents,
how old are you?
37.
31?
Seven.
You're capping.
No, you thought I was younger?
That's good.
That's amazing, bro.
I've been doing this for a long time, yeah.
You're an inspiration, bro,
and I look up to people like you.
I always have.
But, like, when you live with your parents,
like, they're on top of you
and, like, they're always worried
about your next movie.
And I told him, just give me a month.
They didn't even want to give me a week.
So thank God.
I got a call from an agency.
I'm not going to say which one.
But they're like, hey, we work with Mr. Beast.
We work with different creators.
And we want to sign you.
Read the contract.
Didn't like it.
And I'm like, Dad, like, just take this phone call with me.
Hopping.
I don't care about the phone call.
I don't care.
Like, you got to get a job.
This is bullshit.
I'm like, just listen.
When he got that phone call,
I think he realized like this is real
because then another person called me
Tyreek Hill's agent
called me like I managed Tyreek Hill
I managed this guy I didn't like the contract
they wanted 20% of everything
Yeah and then finally
Night Media who I'm with now
They called me my manager Tenney
I want to sign you we have all these creators
They used to be with Beast
What's up? Night Media used to work with Beast
Yeah and now I'm with them
And you know they got me
some good deals and everything now and them, but they believed in me and they proved to my dad,
like, I can really do this.
This is how it happened before Streamer U?
All before Streamer U.
That was just last year.
Yeah.
This was last year.
Last March, I quit my job right before I turned 26, which is another reason.
They were basing all this off of your TikToks and like your TikToks, and like your TikTok
lives, it sounds like, right?
TikTok, Instagram, muse, all this stuff.
That's why they sign me, but like, I didn't have health insurance.
I was about to turn 26, and when you turn 26, you get your own health insurance.
You lose your parents, yeah.
And I didn't get it.
It was going to overlap.
And I said, Dad, like, I'm going to be able to afford it with all this money I'm getting from monetization and brand deals.
It's like, you're not going to be able to do it.
You're not going to be able to do it.
I'm like, trust me, I will.
It's going to happen.
Because I believe in myself so much that it was possible, you know?
That's how it works.
Like, if you have a vision, you have a goal, anything can happen.
But you're going to have some type of proof.
Like, you can't be like, I want to leave my job.
I'm becoming an astronaut.
That ain't gonna happen.
Yeah.
You know, I admire about you so much, man.
I know I just rambled a lot,
but I wanted to just tell you.
No, no, I'm glad you did.
But I admire, I admire so much about you
just putting yourself out there
and being on social media because
there are so many people
who really want to do it and who want to be a part of all this,
but they're so afraid to do it.
And I don't know how to say.
I'm not trying to, you've been dealt a hand
that is like a lot harder
than 99% of people.
That's my number.
I'm just telling like you've dealt a much harder hand.
Like you, I mean, we did the statistics.
We looked at the numbers.
It's like a hundred people were documented like this.
Really?
Yeah.
So we just pulled up.
I know.
I know.
So it's like for you to have that condition
that most people would take as a limiting thing
for everything else in their life
and you believe yourself in yourself so much to still do this,
that's incredible.
man. Thank you. You gotta be proud
as fuck of yourself.
I am. I'm always very hard
on myself for like not doing
enough. Like before I got on the streamer you
I was like when is God gonna give me
a break? When am I going to get my big chance?
And
I really don't think streamer you
was that big chance yet. I still think I
have way more to come. Like I see
myself in movies. I see
myself doing shows. I see myself
coming up with medicine and working with doctors
because I feel like I'm going to
a crazy impact somehow and someone's gonna find me somehow maybe it's through this maybe it's through
the field of all I don't know what it's gonna be through but that was just like the start like
I would pray every night Brad that something huge would have because like you know I get like a
couple viral food reviews every now and then and like streams but like this streamer you thing
like I wasn't going to apply and everyone's like you're gonna get in like we know it we feel it like we
know your name's gonna be on that board and the night I got paid
picked, which I wasn't even going to apply.
I filmed the video. I redid it.
My editor's like, you got to redo it.
I actually try.
Submitted in an hour before applications closed on Father's Day.
We got it in 1.30 a.m. July 6th, he picked my name, and I freaking went crazy, bro.
It was like, like, how did he pick me?
I was like, he's either going to pick me because of my story or my analytics, because I stream
every night, I post every day, and I'm just dedicated it.
So that's one reason.
But now when I got him, I just blew up.
Like my clips went viral.
People started finding out, oh, Jayshod does this.
He does food reviews.
He does music.
Like, this is who he is.
And people, like, discovered me more.
And that's always what I wanted,
because I wanted, I want to get so big that, like,
I could really help people and, like, have an impact on people.
Not just from my content, but, like, my words and what I could do.
Like, Kanye could tweet out F.D.
F.D.
chef Nike and people would follow that trend.
Yeah. He has that power.
A lot of people do, but they
use the power wrong.
You know, I'm not saying kind of reason. I'm just saying a lot of
celebrities, they don't realize their influence.
Like an influencer could genuinely have an influence
and an impact and change live, bro.
Yeah.
Whether it's helping people across the country, you know.
But like, that's how I want to do it.
What do you really want to help people with?
disabilities. Whatever this is, 100 people have it. Let's find more people that have it. Or let's,
let's try to prevent it from happening. Let's get these kids that can't see and can't hear.
Because they're the last people that have vision and hearing problems in schools and they need, like in large
textbooks and they need hearing aids like I do. Let's get these kids. Let's get these adults.
Like, make them feel comfortable about it. Like, well, you're also living proof of that, like,
despite a serious disability. Yeah. You're able to do it.
Like you're doing that by just being you.
I want to design like cool-ass hearing aids.
Like I want people to feel like, yeah, I got these.
I got the new meta-hearing aids, you know.
I got the Gen 3s.
What do you have?
Like, I could hear the guy pissing next door, you know.
I could hear Ms. Miss Elliot dropping a deuce down the block.
What can you hear?
You know?
Yeah, you're funny.
So, okay.
So that's the impact you want to have.
Yes.
you get there? How do we get there? Just keep doing what you're doing? Keep going. How do you think
I can get there? I think you're doing all the right things. And I think it's just your energy,
man. It's your personality. Like I said, from the moment we sat down here, the first time we met,
it's like, it's easy. Me, I have to like come in and read you. Like, when I, when I got to
the gate, I'm like, oh, I hope I didn't, I don't say anything wrong. I feel like it just clicks,
bro. You're going to, you might like me, might not, you know? The most of the side people
like me, hopefully. Yeah, no, you got a good energy for sure.
So your parents, your parents now, obviously your dad was like, you got to get a job.
Your parents now believe in you, Rob.
Now they're like, you're on what?
Like you were on the news station out there in New York recently?
What is it?
You were out on Fox recently in New York.
Fox?
Yeah.
Yesterday.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was crazy.
What the, like, there was, I think out of anything that's happened, that was like the most thing that I'm like probably, like, you were so well spoken.
Like, this is such a cool opportunity.
Like, TV's kind of dying now, but like, like, the news is always going to.
be there and it's a big thing
to be on the news. Like, that's something
like a lot of people can never be
able to say they did, you know?
Like, that was really cool for me to be on.
I know. It made me feel like I should have ordered some food
and had us eat some food.
What, today? Yeah, because that's like, you know,
it's like part of your thing is eating. We could go out
and stream and do a muck and row. I want to go
in and out. You like in and now? I'm down to go in and
out. I got a call. I know I have
call at 2 o'clock for my vertigo, but
I'm down to go regardless. Maybe just give
me like 20 minutes. I am a call. Are you kidding me?
No, but I have to, yeah, but I actually got to go to, I need to go see a specialist and like figure this shit out because it's, it is.
Well, how long have you had it?
So I've, probably experienced symptoms, things from it because it's not like a, I don't just have it and then you have it forever.
It's like intermittent, right?
So for maybe the last three years, I've had it like on and off, sometimes not at all.
And sometimes for like a week at most.
And it's, but it's like terrible.
Right now I've had it for the last like four days.
I'm like, bro.
Yeah, my, yeah, I had it like that, bro.
Like, I can't live like this.
dude. It's like the worst thing.
It's like I can't do anything. I go like
sit down to go to bench breasts and I'm like
I feel like I'm twisting and falling over.
I think that's what it is.
What? I think you're
almost shooting blood to your head
too much and you're getting...
Well, it never happened. I was training, I've been training for
20 something years. It never happened. Yeah, but it's the motion
you're... You got to give your body
rest. Oh, I've given my body rest, man. I've given my body. It's something else.
Something in my ears. I don't know.
When did the last time you got your ears clean?
Well, that's what I'm going to go try to do.
I'll go with you.
You got to get your ears clean, too?
It's the best thing ever, bro.
They put like a tomb in you.
They suck everything out, man.
That's what I'm going to do.
Because you're going to bejay, but you're in your ear.
Oh, it's like a ear blow job?
Yeah.
Pro, what have I been missing?
It's mad, bro.
It was like.
You make it, I don't even care if it even fixes anything.
I just want a eargasmic.
I want an earblogop.
You have an eagasm.
I want it so bad now.
It feels good.
How many times you get that done?
I don't get on an upmaker.
They started charging.
me on when I got new insurance, I don't go anymore.
I got to go back.
I'm so serious about doing the ear blow job, bro.
I'm not kidding.
Well, let's go do a lot of shit of getting ear blow jobs.
I'm about to.
I'm not kidding, bro.
Can we just pull up on someone and they do that?
No, you got to make an appointment.
It's a whole thing with the E&T, right?
Yeah.
Damn it, bro.
That's funny and so stupid.
I'm dead serious, though.
I think that maybe that's what it is.
Because I cleaned my ears out once and it was pretty fucked up.
Yeah, Q-Tips aren't really good for your ear either.
It pushes it in, right?
Yeah.
Yeah, I don't need that.
And all the little...
But I'm down after this.
I'm down.
I'll do the call and then we'll go get in and out.
You want to get in and out or something healthy?
I mean, what could we...
What are we going to eat that's like healthy and fun to eat?
I've been craving like a...
Like a simple kind of a bowl with like protein in it.
Like fa?
And rice.
Oh, rice.
Like a Kava type of place, you know?
I've never been to Kava.
That's pretty good.
But we could go to...
We can go to in and out.
I mean, what would do better, you think?
You're the expert.
It don't matter.
better. It's up to you.
I'm down for either one.
They can muck on anything, bro. Get the muck on anything.
You eat a lot of food then, huh?
Yeah, but...
How do you not get fat?
Because I don't really finish the food, bro.
Like, I try to. Like, you gotta understand, bro, like,
when you do these food reviews, I'm...
I'm, like, filming everything I'm talking, and now I'm streaming.
Like, I have a whole new wave of shit, not because I stream,
but, like, I take a couple bites, talk about the food, if it's good.
But I like...
Generally, like, I like what I'm meaning.
but like I don't get to enjoy the food anymore
I haven't had a real meal
unless my mom cooks in like
months you know I can't enjoy
like Jack's Bees anymore I can't enjoy like a good
in-and-out burger like
but today I don't want to enjoy
because we're going to be off camera unless I'm streaming
but like streaming is better
because like you could talk and eat
but when you're doing a video
it's like you're going to make sure you get all the right shots
because if you see my videos I'm in the car
and I sit everything up and I take a bite
put it down
It's like working out for a video.
I'm training my body to like not eat full meal that my esophagus is shrinking.
Esophagus is in your throat.
Your gut, your intestine.
Not my esophagus.
Yeah, yeah.
Your intestines.
Intestants.
They're shrinking.
No, you're.
Yeah, your estophagus is here.
Your esophagus is here.
I thought you're ugila.
Ugila.
That's a, I think that's the thing.
Your esophagus is.
No, your uvula is the ball thing that.
It's the back of your esophagus is, look this shit up.
Pull the esophagus up, pull it up.
It's right here.
I think I'm going to.
I'll bet you're your Ford Rafter.
Yeah, go ahead.
Oh, what's that?
Yeah, it's your throat.
What's that bottom thing?
It says stomach.
It's literally pointing out.
It says stomach.
Sophagus.
No, click it.
Blow that up here so he can see it.
It may get huge.
Brickin dumbass.
Yo, this is you, mother.
You're, no, no, go back to the other.
What's that big assing?
No.
Go to the,
okay,
look.
Osofagus is the tunnel,
the throat leading down to the stomach.
Yeah,
right.
It's your stomach and your intestines
that's shrinking a little bit.
Oh, Brad.
Bro, this is you.
This is on you.
The esophagus is here, man.
There you go.
So it's on the way to the stomach.
Fine.
But the point is,
yeah, your stomach's like a little shrinking.
It's got to be.
I get full, like,
is that true?
Like,
if I get full fast,
does that mean it's shrinking?
Well,
there's a ton of things
that, like,
signal how full you are.
And then my, I feel like, like my throat closes.
Like I gag kind of sometimes.
I can't, I can't chew the food good.
It's also because I have fake teeth.
I can't chew the food as good as I want it.
But I feel like I can never swallow the food good enough.
I get full fast.
It's bad.
And I think that's from me, like training my body not to eat enough.
So you weren't like that before?
I fast a lot.
Yeah, I do too.
But you weren't like that before the eating videos.
No, but it's, I don't fast on purpose.
I fast because like I just train my body to do that.
I get nervous.
I like, I'll have like a stomach issue.
Like I like to eat light before I do any like things like this or anything, you know?
Yeah.
Even like the protein shake, I'm like, I don't want to drink too much, you know?
Yeah, I get you.
But it's fine.
But yeah, bro, I can't like enjoy the food anymore.
It's just like working out and filming it.
It's the same thing where it's like, it's just different.
That helps though.
Working like, yeah, you can't enjoy your workout.
Yeah, because you're like, I got.
to interact with the...
Working at helps with the hunger.
That makes me eat better
and join the food more
because you're building up muscle
and your muscles are craving food, you know?
What are your maxes, benching?
What's my max bench?
Bench, squat, deadlift.
You're not going to believe this,
but I played rugby.
You played rugby?
Like, did they...
Like, what position did you play?
What I don't feel about that?
He said, did you go to school online?
I played rugby from Maloy College.
Like from the sideline.
Like, where did you play it from?
No.
They were playing and you were watching.
I was on the side of the 15.
If you look up the position of the rugby, I was number 15.
And you play the wing.
I was defending and scoring.
And I would rock kids, bro.
I would rock people, man.
Yeah.
So I'm all the way on the end there.
And the last man, 15.
Wait, that's the goalie, it looks like.
No, no, no.
It's just someone.
So you were 14 then?
I'm all the way on the left.
11?
No, 15.
Where's 15?
15's the goalie.
I don't know.
Who the hell cares?
It looked like you were 14.
14 to 15.
One of those.
But we had to do like fitness stuff.
You know, we had to do bench and squats.
Yeah.
Make the team kind of thing.
I max benched 145, 150.
I think I did 7 to 10 reps of that.
I don't remember.
And then squatting, we had to do 175.
I don't remember what I did.
Maybe like 10 reps of that.
And we had to run a mile.
Couldn't do that.
It took like 20 minutes throwing a mile.
But like I'm good like upper body, you know.
Running's difficult.
Like I could bench you.
No, I wait too, too.
You couldn't be.
You just said you did 180.
I could bench you.
No, no.
You just said you did 180.
I weigh way way more than that.
You couldn't bench me, bro.
I can bet you.
By, I weigh more than that.
I know, I know.
I will lie.
I can squire you.
You said you bench, you said you squat 170.
I'm 250, 260.
Yeah, I could squire you.
No.
Easily.
I'd hurt you, bro.
You would.
You would.
I don't think I could get you on my back.
I think we'd collapse.
You want to try?
How?
No, you're going to break my back.
I'm going to ruin the whole trip.
Okay.
Okay.
That.
Oh, dude.
So have you ever spent time in the gym like consistently?
Yeah, I had it.
before Streamer U, I had a train
with my friend that quit athletics,
Casey and Dan and Dom,
and they would train me twice a week,
full body workout.
They're like, if you're going to train with us,
you only have to come in, you know,
one maximum three times in the week.
It was like full body workouts, everything,
two, three sets each, no cardio.
And I was getting jack, bro.
Like, I was feeling great.
weight.
Yeah.
Pull-ups, you know, pushing weight, like the, what's the sled, right?
Yes.
Pulling it, like, all these different workouts.
And I was like, it's a, it's a sport center gym.
So they train like baseball athletes, you know, like the Mets players train there.
And then I went to Streamer U and everything went down.
I haven't been training as much.
And I want to get back into it.
And I was going to talk to you about this somehow, but like, I wanted your advice on it.
but like with this whole new realm of streaming,
I haven't been able to bounce what I want to do,
and that's like food reviews and gaming and music,
because I'm out here collaborating with different people,
and I'm blessed to be doing stuff like this,
but like I want to do my own thing.
I want to get back to J-Shok,
and I feel like I'm not even J-Shok right now.
Like, I'm doing things as J-Shok,
but I don't feel like J-Shok.
I don't even feel like Jerome anymore, you know?
Kind of like, it's like a Peter Parker Spider-Man thing.
Like, he was having trouble, you know, bouncing everything.
The identity.
So, like, how do you deal with, like, new opportunities and bouncing your life and working
out and eating, right, and collaborating?
How do you deal with all of it?
Oh, bro.
It's kind of like, you never really get it right, right?
It's never, like, always perfect.
So it's just like, I think the thing that you should focus on, if you feel like there's
things you need to do for you that you're not doing, you should make that of a priority.
Like, each day you should be doing at least a few things for you.
you as far as like I'm assuming in this sense for content for as jay shock whether it's the eating
reviews of the things that you like really love I would make time every day to do something for that
and that should be like the first thing you do like for me it's always been like if I don't train
I'll feel pretty terrible for the rest of the day or for the rest of the days if I'm not working out
like throughout the week so I just make it a priority that okay that's the first thing I want to focus
on the first thing I want to do so like for you me wake up the first thing on your schedule somewhere
should be like, all right, I want to get these videos done for me.
And then the other stuff can kind of follow.
What time do you wake up?
Lately around like eight, maybe like 18, yeah.
What time do you go to bed?
It depends.
That's where it gets tricky.
That's bad.
Yeah.
I go to bed at three or four.
No.
Wake up at like 11, 12.
You do?
Yeah, because I'm editing and streaming all the night.
Oh, you edit your own shit too?
Certain stuff, but I have like a clipper, my editor, Jacob.
who edits all my stuff, like all my, like, clips.
He's part of the reason I blew up.
He edited seven clips a day at StreamerU posting while I'm there
and dropping a YouTube video on the same day.
Streamer You day one, dropped day one.
But, like, if I'm like, I have a certain style for my food reviews.
So, like, I like to do my style with B-roll and stuff.
I'll edit those or if I'm really busy, I'll send it to them.
When I'm up all night, like, studying content, you know, trying to relax.
I'm planning out my week or day
and it's bad
because I'm waking up late
and bed late.
You gotta try to shift your schedule a little bit
if you can't.
I feel like I get more done at night
but it's not good.
Some people are just like that.
I will tell you this though bro
when I don't stream at night
and I'm in like Florida or something on vacation
bro I wake up
I piss excellent
I eat excellent
I sleep excellent
like it's like
I could breathe
you know.
Well, how can you can't just recreate that and still do the streaming?
How come I want?
How can you recreate that while just like incorporating your actual work during the day?
I think I just need to get past this collab phase.
Like everyone wants to collab with me now.
Like tomorrow I'm doing the thing with Lacey, the caretaker thing, which is cool.
I just got a date with Sophie Rain.
Oh yeah, I saw you a little bit.
I want a date with her.
But we've had history before.
So you and Sophie had history?
I've been dating her, bro.
We've been on a little.
Wait, wait.
You're trolling.
me. I'm not trolling you, bro. Look it up.
Wait, wait. What are we?
Look up Sophie Rain's boyfriend. I'm a pop up right now.
No, that's because they probably did the whole Wikipedia thing, bro.
They, they like...
I'll arm wrestle you right now.
Yo. Look the shit up.
No, they say it's Alex Mandel. That's what it said right there.
Who the hell is that? Shock Mannell.
Yeah, see?
Yeah, it's fake.
That's fake.
To type Sophie Rain and Jayshock.
No, I heard you just like had a crush on her low key.
what's that say
known for a
wait
but it doesn't say you're dating
we are
yeah how long you guys been dating
probably a year and a half
a year and off
we're on and off because she's traveling
I travel we're on a lot
but now I'm finally making it up to her
we're going to go on a nice date
reestablished stuff get back together
but what I'm telling you is like
all these collabs Brad
like I just want to do my
I want to get back into my schedule
Like I have brand deals to film
And I have
Collabs
Not Collabs
I want to stream that I want to do
Like subathons that I want to do
Like I don't
I don't want to keep collabing with people
You know
Stuff like this is amazing
This I want to do
And I love to do
But like I don't gotta go and
Do this random collab with someone
And stream
Like
Let me do my thing
Well you just got to pick what you
What you really want to do
I know
That's what people tell me
Like you gotta start
Just saying no
Yeah
You know?
Because you got it.
If you're not doing your, like, your thing, of course you're going to feel like something wrong.
Yeah, but with streaming and full about, like, your momentum,
how many viewers are you averaging your engagement?
But like my editor, my manager, my team, they're like,
you're to the point now where like you could take a week off, a day off,
and you'll still be relevant.
Before all this shit happened with us, you, like,
I was getting trends here and there.
Like, I was doing my thing.
But now, like, I think up to the point where, like,
people could wait on it and be like, oh, my God, he dropped today.
Like, what is Mr.
Beast, what do you? Like, you guys, like, nail
all these people, like, they drop like once a week.
But people look forward to it because it's quality.
Yeah. So, like, I want to
treat my content like that. In a
schedule, I want my streams to be
quality,
I want my videos to be quality, and I want
my collapse to be quality. I want to have
balance with everything. And I think
when I'm learning through these trips and traveling
more, I'm learning more about my
schedule and myself and my time
and where it should be used.
Yeah. Well, you do, I mean, that's, that's
only way to figure it out is just by going through it.
It's not like you're doing anything wrong.
Right.
I think the key is, like I said earlier,
it's just like dedicating time for yourself to get your content done.
Like if I didn't do my podcast and I just did stuff for everyone else,
then I wouldn't be feeling good about what I'm doing.
You know what I'm saying?
So it's the same sort of, like, I got my buddy Steve's like trying to,
he's like, dude, trying to get me to fly out every week,
someplace random to go film with him.
And I'm like, bro, I got to get this done.
If I don't get this done, then like, nothing else sort of matters to me.
And you're spending money on traveling.
Yeah.
And it's like, I will travel eventually more, but like, I want to earn it and know why I'm traveling.
Like, am I doing a food tour for the East Coast?
Am I doing some type of cool collab with a different streamer doing food content in the West Coast?
Like, I want to plan all that stuff out.
I want to make traveling meaningful and have a purpose behind it.
Even if I go to a different country, I want to go with other people, you know?
Yeah.
Like, it'd be sick to do a trip with you somewhere.
like that, but we have to plan it out.
I don't want to this rush shit like that.
Where do you want to travel?
Where do you really want to go?
Everywhere.
I've never been outside the country.
Not once.
No.
Like, not even Mexico.
No.
You got a passport?
Yeah.
I think my top five places I want to go to are Australia,
Italy,
Dubai,
Hawaii,
and maybe like,
oh, Alaska.
You want to go to Alaska?
Yeah.
I've never said like I want to go to Alaska.
Oh, I want to smell that air, bro.
I feel like I'll gain like 2020 vision and hearing if I'll smell that air.
All your problems go away? What?
All your problems disappear?
I'll grow like six inches if I go to Alaska.
You just loot the whole that's gone, just gone.
I can hear again.
Yeah, everything is just completely normal.
Dude, get like king crab legs, fight a bear, you know?
Yeah, fight a bear for sure. Get some salmon.
Where do you want to go?
Well, I've been a lot of places, but you've,
listed, you listed one of the places that is my favorite place of all, besides Japan,
Italy.
Australia.
Oh, Japan.
Japan and Italy are my two favorite places.
I want to go to Japan.
Japan is awesome, man.
Well, should I go in the winter, spring, summer?
I don't even know when I went.
I don't even know what time period that was.
It's beautiful like in those, in the spring, when all those pink.
Would you ever go drink the breast milk there?
They like the breast milk cafes?
Breast milk cafes?
Yeah.

Yeah.

What is that?
I'm just trolling, but it's a real thing.
Is there a conveyor belt of just boobs?
I don't know.

My buddy, Steve, he was going to go do it.
I think he did it.
Yeah, I didn't do it.
I was late.
I came late to that party.
I wouldn't do that.
Okay.
What about,
what about they have like scorpion like, like, uh, like shots, like scorpion alcohol.

Krillin?
Yeah.
What?
Because I look like him?
Yeah.
Yeah, the vise was like similar.
I felt like,

Yeah, but I mean,
I guess someone would say I look like
Piccolo because I'm also a ball or krill.
They made me krillin,
but we'll tell me.
But no,
I just grew up on that.
That was like the first stuff that I saw.
I was like,
damn,
I kind of want to be jacked.
It was like a little kid watching anime.
Yeah, but Japan,
they have a hole.
They have like anime cafes.
Bro.
Japan is like,
it's so cool.
I'm not kidding.
Like,
when you go to Japan,
you,
when you look around,
you're like,
oh,
this is why they even depicted everything the way they did.
And I want to try the food there,
new like food tours.
Like that's my thing.
The sushi's amazing there.
It's amazing.
I had some ramen in Tokyo that was like some famous ramen spot.
You like go down and they have like little stalls.
It's like weird.
What's that chicken dish where they like they have like fried chicken over the noodles?
It's like a it's like a fried chicken Japanese dish.
Fried chicken Japanese dish.
Like a chicken Japanese dish.
It's almost like a chicken cutlet.
Like a like a catsu.
I forgot what it's called.
bro, but I want to try it.
It's like a fried chicken?
It's like a chicken cutlet sliced up.
That's it.

Have you tried it?
Oh, yeah.
Bro, it looks amazing.
I don't think I had that in Japan, but I've had to hear all the time.
I eat here a lot.
No, it looks really good.
What do you think the best thing you ever had?
like, because you do all the food eating things,
what's the best you've ever done?
You're like, this is, like, you have to try this.
New York Chinese food.
Really?
Bro, it's the best thing ever.
But, like, is there a specific place?
Yeah, I mean, like, if you go to flushing,
you get soup dumplings or, like,
any type of dumplings,
but there's one place that I go to in,
in Long Island.
It's called Hunan Taste, and they have,
like, it's so, like, I hate saying, like,
oh, like, how are you food review?
And that's like the one thing.
I'm just going to be honest.
Like the Chinese food in New York is like,
the Chinese food on the East Coast, like New Jersey, New York,
it's life-changing, bro.
Even like the pizza in the East Coast, the Italian food.
But like, I would say if you really want to experience New York,
you get the bagels, pizza, and the Chinese food
and like a glass of water because they have the best water.
You said New York has the best water?
They have the best.
Flushing Queens has the best, I would,
They're top 10 water systems.
How are we rating water?
Like, how are you?
It's like the purity, the chemical levels and all that.
Really?
They have the best filtration system, the best.
Like the tap water?
Yeah, the dough, the bagels, the pizza that's from the water.
Oh, I see what you're saying.
But like the ribs, the spare ribs, the dumpling, the chicken and broccoli, the sesame beef, Brad.
I would put you in kingdom, bro.
I'm all coming to New York just to eat that food.
My top five places are Hunant taste.
Robke's, Louisiana's New Hyde Park, Vito's, Glencove or Northport, and then, like, number five would be something else.
I don't know, like, five is always like a flex spot.
But, like, I know, like, really good spot.
Like, there's, like, other food reviewers that, like, go to the city and they go to, like, different countries and states.
But, like, I'm kind of, like, more niche.
So, I could tell you what's good in a certain area.
Yeah.
And, like, I, like, have built a name for myself all the line.
you know?
Yeah.
So I could tell you this spot.
There's this place in San Francisco.

But if you were to tell me, like, what's the best thing you've ever had, like, eaten?
I could name, like, dishes from certain places.
I really don't know.
Like, you like Italian food?
I do, but I grew up being a lot of Italian food.
So, like, I'm kind of like...
So, like, the cool thing about Long Island is,
Long Island is, like, a Long Island, but it expands...
Oh, way. Long Island's a Long Island?
Hmm?
It's a Long Island?
I'm from Long Island.
The Long Island.

But I'm saying like the joke is like it's like it spreads.
It's actually Long Island.
I didn't know.
Yeah.
I didn't know.
No, Long Island like it spreads in the different cultures and food.
So like you get a taste of Brooklyn.
You got a taste of Staten Island, Manhattan.
There's all different foods.
But like this place, Robkees in Northport, they do their style.
Their Italian food, Bronx style.
So their pork chops.
If you type in pork chop martini, Robkees, bro, they put peppers on it.
It's thinly sliced.

homies. I took my hearing eight out. What?

But that's the place I would take you to, bro.

And then the last place, like, we're going to do Rob Keyes, this place, and then Luigi's
New Hyde Park.
They have this thing called a veal-trop, Oshambuco.
So it's a veal shop.
You like a veal?

Holy fuck
What is that?
I don't know man
That's not Luigi's
I don't know who that is
That's freaking Mario
That ain't Luigi
So
So how long have you been into food stuff
Was it the first thing
You kind of like
Took off with?
Four years ago
I went in the food.
Went Home Depot.
I was doing like a little snackery.
I was always into snack hunting.
Like finding the, you know,
lime green, yellow mountain dews
and all these cool Doritos and stuff like that.
Did you ever get into...
Pineapples with the...
In the sugar?
Oh, yeah.
You did that?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I was always into that kind of thing.
I was posting it on Snapchat.
I was like trying to figure out a way to, like,
put it out the public.
And my boy, Rosari was like,
you got to put it on TikTok.
Get this out.
up there. Don't put on a Snapchat because it only lasts 24 hours.
And I just started doing snack reviews and food reviews.
Did it, did it pick up quickly for you?
Yeah.
I got a couple of viral moments here and there.
Like I did Hooters. I did Chili's.
And like the views picked up a little bit there.
And I found out like once you get the 10K, you get monetized.
So I made it my goal to get the 10K.
And now we're at 2.6 million, 2.7 million.
What do you average a month?
Like, what kind of money do you average a month?
a month on TikTok.
It used to be better.
I don't like it used to be better.
I don't really like to talk about numbers ever.
But it's a good.
It's good number.
It's not even TikTok.
It's like cameo, TikTok, you know,
brands, Twitch,
YouTube, Snapchat,
it's all these different ways of income.
So what do you want your focus to be?
You want it to be mostly Twitch?
I wanted to be music, gaming,
and food, but I want it to be all spread out.
I don't even do a focus.
I want it to be.
everything, man. I want to get into long form more. The long form I'm doing now is like just like my
Vod's chopped up and edited in a good way, but I want to like really like do like Nick does
Nick's content. Yeah, right. Or like your content. Yeah. Like planned out stuff like quality or it takes
time. And I think I could do like a whole like I used to do like vlog like that. They were really good.
But I want to get back into that. I think that's I think that's going to make a hard comeback.
It is like vlogging like this. Because people like to.
see like the realness in you and like your interactions you know yeah because because we've gotten
so far like to down the whole production side of things that i think people like everything kind of
goes like circle comes back we're like yeah we want to see like just real people yes who are some of
the people you grew up watching like old old or like new i'll go over everyone okay um MTV you know
rob dear deck my inspiration i think rob dear deck single-handedly started the entire movement of all
of this. He and Bamargera. They documented their whole life. They put it all on TV. And they really
started that media thing. Them, uh, Roman Atwood, Casey Nyset, Nelke, you, Bailene, um, I don't know,
man, so many different people. Epic Mealtime. Oh my God. You watched that? Yeah. Right? That was one of the,
Yes, bro.
That was one of the very first, that was like one of the first super viral food YouTubers.
Yeah, bro.
What happened to them?
I think you just stopped.
They just grew out of it.
I think it was a whole group of guys.
Steve, Steve will do it with one of my big guys.
He's still going hard on YouTube.
I love him, bro.
When he came back, yeah.
Post Malone, my big inspiration.
I want to meet him so bad.
If I could collaborate anyone, and I hate saying this, because I don't like to, like, I don't like to collaborate
stuff for the views or like cloud.
Like I want to become friends.
Like we're friends now. I hope.
That's the same thing with me and Nick and sketch.
Like I said if I ever met people like that, I'd become friends with them.
I don't care about like streaming all.
But like posts, I genuinely feel like we like hit it off and have a good relationship,
you know.
But like I've had so many cool inspirations, man.
I'd say Cartoon Network with a big inspiration row because I love like having fun and animation
like that.
Yeah.
You know, all that stuff, man.
A lot of different creators, bro.
What did you grow up watching a cartoon network?
Like, what show?
Yeah, how old are you?
How old are you?
Probably, like, four or five.
I grew up watching Power Rangers,
then just heard a little 90s, baby.
Okay.
99.
Yeah.
So, like, Courage of Carly Log.
Oh, my God.
Teen Titans.
He took me back with that one.
Conan Kent next door.
Yeah.
All that shit, bro.
I was, like, the whole era,
but I was watching in high school, you know?
Yeah.
Because it was so relatable.
No, because back then the cartoon, like, they had, like, good storylines and, like, they were so relatable, bro.
You had more meaningful stuff, I feel like it.
Even though it was like a bunch of slapstick humor, I have more meaningful.
Now it's a bunch of brain rot on different channels.
Everything's brain rot now.
It is.
I feel like we just, I mean, do you think you ever make any brain rot?
I think I ever what?
Do you have you made any brain rot?
Have you contributed?
I'm sure I've made some brain rot.
I mean, like, I think people could turn myself in a brain rot, but I'm not out here, like,
being aggressive and just doing like dumb, you know, like saying dumb slogan.
Like I have like cool slogan.
I created them.
Like I'm like, let's get the muck and chagal clock.
And then I have my seize moments where like make a hard ride shoot.
I have like all these different things.
Like the no look handshake.
And they're like, they're cool moments.
Like people are hitting the no look handshake for celebrations now in hockey tournaments.
Like that, bro.
Or like doing like dances at weddings.
Like I'm trying to make my serious, you know.
Yeah.
The no look handshake.
The no look handshake.
That comes up on Google.
It's crazy.
Google it, Google it.
Didn't it not come up?
No, it did.
It said the no look handshake of viral social media memes
and awkward greeting style popularized by streamer and jayshok.
Really?
Seen in clips with creators like Kaisenat and J-Sah.
There it is, yeah.
Yeah, but...

And then,
but like,
I'm down to come back to the pod and then go eat and do whatever.
I just have to do this because, like, I don't want to keep feeling like this.
Okay, yeah, yeah.
We're going to resume the pod?
Yeah, I'm down.
We're not done?
I mean, I feel like I could talk about so much more.
You could talk about so much, bro.
Maybe we'll take a break?
We can take a break, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
The little handshake.
You didn't do it on purpose.
No.
Now you do it on purpose, though.
Bro, it was a complete mistake.
I'm telling you.
I was doing a regular review, and I was at my boy, and we were filming something,
and this guy was like 80 years old
and I came in and he was like a huge fan
and he bought me and my camera got lunch
and I'm like all right we got to do a video now
so we go back in
do the intro and I go in there
and the guy Antonio he's like
who are you? Are you famous? I'm like no I just do videos
I had like me like a hundred K
300k at the time
and he gives me his phone and put in the
the name on TikTok
and when he gave me his phone
I was like what was your name?
and he's like Antonio, I didn't look at him.
I didn't look at him, bro.
And then at the bottom of all my videos,
like, no look handshake can't pop up
and I'm like, I ignored it.
I like kept ignoring it.
And then the uncle called me up.
He's like, look, look a guy in the eye
next time you shake his hand.
Yeah.
I was like, what do you mean?
Like, it's everywhere.
Like, you didn't know, look handshake.
You know, it's funny, like,
it's funny, though, because it hit, like,
it definitely seems like it,
it's one of those things that you'd assume
that it was already a thing.
Because it's so cool.
Like it's like even though even though for you was on accident.
It's not like you did it on purpose.
Dude,
I want freaking shake one Barkley to hit the no look handshake.
Yeah, hit it.
Hit it in touch that.
I'll just go.
Yo, that'd be sick.
They just do it with the whole team.
Like everyone lines up when he no look handshake the whole team.
Or even if he just did it, it's just,
it's funny.
Like it's funny because before you did it like on accident,
in my head just even talking about it now that we know it,
it just seems like something that would be a thing.
Now it's like my move.
Yeah, now you just hit,
you just hit people with it now?
Do you ever have neck issues?
No, I do.
Well, I was just in there.
I mean, I got a big ass neck.
Yeah, what the,
super neck.
E.T.
I don't know what they.
Bro, that's a good thing.
Does that help you out?
What?
Is it a good thing?
Good reach, you know, trees and,
get the good places.
bro, who's the person you've had the most fun with making content since you've made content?
Collabs wise.
Sketch.
Yeah?
He's made me laugh.
He's been my best friend, like, through all this.
And just a great dude, man.
Sketch.
Nick's great.
I love Nick.
Both great guys, yeah.
My friend, Noe Amarillo, he's in L.A., Cody Chow's, like, just great, like,
muckbangers, content creators.
Like, they're the difference between, like, my streamer friends, then, like, my content creator
friend, but sketch is like, I never knew, like, because sketch is huge. Like, he's, he's a, he's a big
thing. And now he's like one of my best friends. Like, I call him, he show me as his new house today,
a new apartment. And we're like super close. And they're really supportive with me, you know,
he helps direct me in certain direction, man. Yeah, he's a genuine dude, for sure.
Who's your boy? Or girl. Steve will do it. Who? Steve will do it. Oh, Steve? Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. I feel like you got them mad close. Even the way he says your name,
It's like he summons you.
It feels like that sometimes.
It feels like that sometimes.
I want to meet him, bro.
We have a two-minute FaceTime or a two-second FaceTime call, and I'm like, I want to
meet him.
All right.
Let me see you with FaceTimber right.
If he really your boy, he'll pick up right now.
Let's see.
He knows me, right?
A couple, like here and there?
I'm not sure.
I think he knows me.
You've got to find out.
Is Nick Steinie calling him?
And introduce me.
Oh, when was that?
Two weeks ago.
Yeah.
Did you do something with Stine yet?
No, he gave me a iced out J. Shock watch.
Oh, is that where that's from?
Yeah, I keep seeing that and all your videos.
Yo, this motherf-
No, you're dead, bro.
We're getting around the meeting.
He ain't doing me like that.
The motherfucker's probably gambler.
If anyone's got the Shocko clock,
he's got like 40 watches.
Oh, bro, yes.
He almost lost all those watches.
He did at one point lose him and then he figured out like how to get him back basically.
How?
The story of Steve will have to tell you.
I can't tell you that story.
I think I was a little bit private that story.
No.
But yeah, he lost all those watches betting on the World Cup.
But he got him back, right?
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah, he got him back.
Like he, like the gamble, the prize was the watches?
So yeah.
So like he gambled money.
Like he got markers from other people.
I mean like he got money from other people.
And then, you know, he leveraged the watches for the markers.
Like, you know, if he's like, I'm going to bet this much, I need you to give me some money.
These are all, he has all these watches.
Like, if I lose and I'm going to have to give you these watches because they're worth this much money.
And so, yeah, he lost basically every bet he placed during the fucking World Cup.
I think he was like, I don't know.
He must have went like 0 and 9 or 1 in 9 or 2 and 9 or something like that.
And he just lost like legit $5 million.
He really he's like a real gang like he really does it's not like for the internet do you do you gamble a little
I do I do but not as not as high stakes to Steve it's fun like it yeah it's not like you know
obviously like it's it's in moderation but like if you do it right and you have fun winning like

I was watching you before the fucking streamer universal.
Oh, that's crazy.
I'm into the munk things.
That's, that's, that means a lot because I've been watching you since.
I told you, bro.
The minute, the first video posted on Instagram about you.
Like the first video when, I think you were on.
on bar stool,
that's where I found you.
Like the first ever video you did

Then you see me blow up and it's like, it's cool.
So same thing with me and you.
I see you.
I was watching your videos before.
It's full circle, bro.

Never.
Oh, wow.
We'll do it.
We can do it in September.
I'm winning.
Yeah, around 9-11.
Mitt, whatever you want to do.
Oh, yeah.
I appreciate you, Steve.
Thank you, Steve.
All right, man.
You got to come with us.
No, I'll be there.
I'll be there.
I want to be like a group trip.
It'll be fun of shit.
I don't care for me and him,
but I want,
you're the one that helped me get here,
you know?
Ah, it's all good.
He's the homie.
I'll be there.
I'm, he's been trying to go out there to film
because we got to do a bunch of stuff together.
I can still bench you though.
Definitely not.
100% not.
You could try, though.
I can't, bro.
You could try.
I don't think I could bet your dog.
Yeah, you could.
Well, not, no, maybe.
Well, he's like, awkward weight.
I don't want to say his name because I don't know if you know
Yeah, Ente, Ente, they know
Ente, bro, is huge
Yeah
He must knock me over
He's as tall as you, I think taller if he stands up
No bullshit
How much you weigh?
130
He weighs more than you
Yeah, he's big bro
He's a big dog
I want a dog so bad, bro
You gotta get one man
What travels you much
That's true
That does make it more complicated
Yeah
When did you move out
Of my house
bro.
When I was like...
Were you close with your parents?
Yeah.
When in your mom?
I was close to my mom for sure.
I lost my dad when I was real young.
I'm sorry about that.
No, no worries.
And yeah, I moved out straight away.
I went right to college and then came back home for, went to community college.
I went to one year away.
Like 19 you moved out?
18.
When?
18.
And then went straight to college, came back home, went to community.
So I stayed at home for a little bit.
Then I went straight to Cal State Fullerton like the next year and just like figured my life out in Southern California.
Completely alone out here for sure.
Really?
Because I'm from the base.
It was like six hour drive.
So I was like separate completely from my family then since I was 19.
Wow.
You have siblings too?
Yeah.
I got a brother, a stepbrother, a half sister and then a step sister.
I got no one.
Just you.
Just me.
So when you FaceTime your mom and dad, it was.
It's them.
They were there.
Yeah.
They're just with their friends.
I think my, I don't want to sound like this is a bad thing,
but my parents, like, were dealing with a lot with me,
and it was a lot for them.
And I almost think that, I don't know if I should say this, bro.
I don't want to put them on the spot, but, like,
I think they didn't want it to happen again.
Because what if there was another, like, it was, it's a lot,
like the medical stuff, the bills and medication.
If they had someone else like that, they would be hard.
I mean, it makes sense.
Or maybe even if they had like someone that didn't have disability and stuff like that,
they would feel bad like that I have them and my brother or sister or sister to do them.
I don't know.
But I just, I'm glad that I'm an only child.
Like I'd be with them so much and hang out with them because they're really supportive.
And they still come with my doctors and my surgery because it's a lot.
Like I can't do it on my own.
It's a lot.
Do you still have to get a bunch of stuff done?
Every freaking other week, bro.
Really?
Look at this.
So that's because of the disease?
Like it affects the way the teeth grow?
It affects my bone growth.
Bone growth.
So I have all my baby teeth.
I can't produce calcium.
And I still have all my baby teeth.
So at one point I was like, dad, like my teeth are hurting.
I don't want to have baby teeth when I'm freaking 30.
They're like, all right, well, get started.
And they had to break my top and bottom jaw, realign it to get the bite right,
take out all the top teeth.
and put metal mesh in it.
I was without teeth for like a year and a half.
I was doing full reviews with no teeth.
It's crazy.
I kind of paid off a little bit though because it became a thing.
Part of my...
But I get it.
It's not easy.
It's part of the look, part of the thing.
Yeah.
It's my story.
It's my journey, bro.
It's my purpose.
But like the last step now,
they just put the bottom teeth and these are fake.
Everything in here is fake.
Except this is called an Essex
and they can pop right out.
Like my Dr. Kurtz,
made it and my other
Dr. Schwartz and Regerio, they
made the whole
bone graphs and procedures. It's
really cool, bro.
Like the shit they do is insane, man.
I said, when all this is done, I better be
your model on the wall.
Can they have this girl now with her like
overbiting shit? I'm like, I wanted to be me.
Yeah. In the office.
In the office, yeah.
Is that the most intensive stuff? Is that the
most intensive stuff? The mouth stuff?
the mouth stuff?
Yeah, but all the pain is done.
Like, I went through the most painful thing,
which was a jaw surgery.
I couldn't even drink out of a cup.
My mom had to give me.
What did they have to do?
Like, pull the jaw forward?
Yeah, they had to re-align it.
It was to create more space here, right?
I looked so different, Brad.
Like, I really looked really different.
Damn, that's intense.
This is me before the surgery.
Look at my nose, how indented it.
You want to show the cat.
Oh, yeah.
I don't know if you could see, I could zoom in on that.
Holy, bro.
So it, like, pulled all this, like, forward almost.
Look.
I looked like a freaking,
it looked like a Kardashian.
Oh, when you're,
because it was swollen after the surgery.
Yeah, bro.
Holy shit.
Have you ever posted these?
Yeah, that's online.
It's on YouTube.
Holy shit.
How long did the recovery?
I'm telling, like, the story of this.
This, this is, like,
when I got my teeth, that's Dr. Regerio.
How old I was in, um, four or five years ago, four years ago?
Yeah.
Three or four years ago? I don't know.
What about, what about like leg stuff?
Do you think you're going to like try to get taller thing?
Like you could, I mean, that's all fine.
Actually, when I was a kid, I played soccer and one day I was doing my mom's room.
I was walking into her room and I was walking on my tippy toes.
And she's like, why are you walking like that?
I'm like, I can't, I can't touch the floor.
It hurts.
So she goes like this to my heel.
Just like that, I started crying.
And it was this disease called Sever's disease.
And I don't know how I got it, but it was something with, like, I don't know what
sever's disease is you've got to look it up.
But I had it like the third grade, my dad would have to carry me up like Superman,
up a flight of stairs, three flights of stairs in school to get me to class.
Severus.
Yeah.
What's the same?
It says it's a painful heel condition caused by inflammation of the growth
plate in the child.
So something wrong with the growth plates is functional.
It's got to be time.
And that's from the original, you know.
Gotta be.
I had two seizures.
I had one when I was eight.
I was tired.
It's crazy how much that one thing just everything up.
Yeah, bro.
But bro, you're one in a bazillion basically.
One in a million, literally less than one in a million odds.
And the fact you're on the internet, you're successful, you're thriving.
It's really cool to see.
Thank you.
genuinely.
I appreciate them.
Yeah, man.
You're doing it.
I appreciate you coming on the pod.
I'm going to look you in the eye.
I'm going to do this.
Thank you,
does you do the same thing?
I did.
You mother.
No, it's been an honor, bro.
Let's go eat.
We'll run this back again in some time.
We'll come back.
Not today, but we'll come back
in another time doing the pot.
You got great energy.
Thank you.
And I know why you're successful, for sure.
And so we go eat some food.
I'm hungry.
I got, I had a little intermission,
took a little vertigo call.
It was terrible.
but thank you for dealing with that.
We're going to get that figured out, bro.
We got to.
We got to.
We go take you to a chiropractor and get you some food, man.
I got to figure out,
maybe you can just clean my ears.
I feel like you know how to do it.
I feel like you've never done it.
Dude, we can TikTok the shit.
I know.
You fucking put the wax thing or whatever.
Suck it out.
Yeah, yeah, just with a straw though or some shit.
Yeah, anyways, I love you, brother.
You're awesome.
Thank you for coming on.
Let's see.
