Starting point is 00:00:37 are enjoying it because uh we are definitely enjoying making it um i can't remember a time i was this happy making any sort of content, really because it's who we are and it's what we're about. It's what we think. And it's not tied to one specific category like we were with the previous podcast. The MFCEO project for you guys that don't know was number one podcast in business for 24 months or what is it? 12, 14 months straight long fucking time anyway uh today we have a little bit different lineup um the pastor of disaster is uh got the day off he is in kansas doing kansas things i think i saw on his uh instagram he went and saw little women last
Starting point is 00:01:23 night and he said that it was terrible and i was shocked that's all i gotta say because i was shocked to learn that a movie called little women based in the 1860s is fucking bad i don't know about everybody else but i was sure let down by vaughn's he he even said that like uh Rambo 47 was better than that movie so you know it must have been really fucking bad uh so because my man Vaughn is not here right now we are sitting in his spot MC Salmon what up what up the Kung Fu Kid I don't know like I gotta come up with some kind of fucking name for you bro what is it I don't know. I got to come up with some kind of fucking name for you, bro. What is it? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:06 That ain't it. The gender fluid, ambiguously gay co-host. Like, what the fuck are you? That'll work. We'll go with that. It's one thing about Tyler. He never argues with it. Yeah, he does it.
Starting point is 00:02:21 Just takes it. Tyler's my man. You guys know how it goes around here. If we really love you, you get made fun of. That's just the way we go. And we got my bro. I don't know what his name will be, but. I'm the third baseman.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Yeah, he's here. He's the third baseman. So on the hot corner, that's where we're going to start calling it the hot corner. You've made it the third base a couple times, I think. A couple times. Oh, yeah, with himself. Well, third base is a nice place to be with me. A lot of people wish they got to my third base.
Starting point is 00:02:49 You know what I'm saying, Tyler? Probably you. Oh, man. We were discussing before we got on the air some of the negotiation tactics that Sal likes to use with the company that is building our new headquarters he really he really likes to do it um very subtly and gracefully uh and he was teaching me how to be a better negotiator before and before we came on the show i was also learning uh or explaining that there is a huge difference between rollerblading and roller skating.
Starting point is 00:03:25 Huge difference. Okay? You could go out and rollerblade, and it is pretty bad. If you go out and roller skate, that's like having fucking streamers on the handlebars of your fucking big wheel, dude. I mean, it is bad. Dude, you know they don't have big wheels anymore. What's wrong with streamers?
Starting point is 00:03:44 Bullshit. They got them for adults. I've seen them. I know you know they don't have big wheels anymore. What's wrong with street wheels? Bullshit. They got them for adults. I've seen them. I know, but kids don't ride. When I go to look for Christmas or anything like that, they don't have big wheels. What? I swear. I mean, they might make them, but they're definitely not out.
Starting point is 00:03:57 They're not at Walmart or Target or anything. They're not the hot thing? No. That's crazy, dude. You just said big wheels, and I thought, man, that would be fucking fun. Dude, they make the adult. We got one. No, I know, but I'm saying for the crazy, dude. You just said big wheels, and I thought, man, that would be fucking fun. Dude, they make the adult. We got one. No, I know, but I'm saying for the kids, listen, it's a good coordination exercise, man, because
Starting point is 00:04:11 it's different than a bike because you don't have to balance, but you still get the pedal. You know what? It teaches you how to come out of an accident. You know what I'm saying? How to correct. Well, so this is cool. This is a proud moment. You'll appreciate this.
Starting point is 00:04:22 So Enzo's learning the power slide. So in his little gator, he stands on the gas, and he lets off the gas so the ass end locks up, and he turns the wheel so it slides out, and he thinks it's awesome. Does he start laughing? Yeah, he loves it. I bet he does. That's awesome, man. So, dude, what have we got to talk about today? I know there's lots of things going on in the news this week.
Starting point is 00:04:42 Yeah, I mean, speaking of nostalgia and things from our past, did you hear that Mark Paul Gosselaar, who played Zack Morris in Saved by the Bell, they're doing a reboot of that show. Why? The fuck? I don't know. Because I guess the fans want it. People are going to watch that? I guess. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:05:00 I watched a lot of Saved by the Bell. I did, too, but, I mean, that was different. Not with the same characters, though. You're talking about, like, they're rebooting it, like, with kids. Oh, like, he's going to be, like, in a reprising role. So he's going to, like, what, be, like, an old man and come back to high school and be cool again? Hey, he's going to be the guy who's, like. Now, what's the principal's name?

Starting point is 00:06:33 I mean the rocks got swag fucking McConaughey that dude's got super swag yeah like I even watch his chick flicks like how to lose a guy in 10 days yeah you know what he's it's a great fucking movie it's a good, but he makes it good. Anyway, dude, I wish I. The new Lincoln's all right. You know, I used to make fun of him. Like, dude, Lincoln, like he's fucking pimping. No, he made him cool.
Starting point is 00:06:54 Dude, the new. Dude, that's how cool. Lincoln's are nice. That's how cool works. That's how cool works. I'm fucking well aware, man. No, you're not. Yeah, because I'm the cool and you're my brother.
Starting point is 00:07:02 Listen, I make this logo cool. So you are well aware of how the fuck it works. I make this logo cool. Dude, what other – were you like me when you came home from high school? Tyler, we're nothing like you. Fuck off. You came home from elementary and you had that two- or three-hour period to where you were watching probably TV until you went outside and played or something.
Starting point is 00:07:20 What are some of those shows that you watched besides Save by the Bell? Dude, I used to like Double Dare. You remember Double Dare? Yeah, the game show that that game show where the kids would run through and uh they would get like slime dumped on their heads and shit fuck i don't think i ever watched that yeah because you're probably not it's probably not old enough bro i'm older than you well you're six years older than me so yeah i'll tell you what we used to watch the shit out of is some american gladiators oh fuck yeah we watched the shit out of american gladadiators. We watched an MTV, too.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Dude, they did a reboot of American Gladiators. When MTV was like real MTV. What shows, you mean? No, like MTV. Before it was shows, it was like videos. You know what I mean? It was like actual videos. You know what's weird to think about?
Starting point is 00:07:59 We didn't have cable, though. That's something, too. We didn't have cable until we were like that. I didn't have cable. Like sixth grade, seventh grade. Dude, think about how this is actually something i never really thought about ever when i'm sitting here thinking about that show like there was always like a lesson to learn in that show you know like if you watch saved by the bell it wasn't just like a
Starting point is 00:08:17 there was like a lesson in the show you know what i'm saying and like if you think about all those shows that we grew up with there was always like like, like, you know, like family ties and this and that. Like, uh, what's the one with the Olsen twins? Who's the boss? Yeah. You know, who's the boss? Yeah. Cheers.
Starting point is 00:08:33 Yeah. Dude. But there was always a lesson in the themes of those shows. If you watch every one of those shows, night court, there, there was a lesson, right? It might be funny. It might be this, but like, dude, dude now these kids like the kids coming up they don't have that shit you know what they got they got fucking reality tv of crazy motherfuckers going crazy all the time like you know how mtv started it with the real world and like so we
Starting point is 00:08:57 have all this drama right man i wonder how that correlates into uh into like society in the big picture you know i'm gonna tell you right now i mean you see it like i mean fuck kids there's nothing to do with kids i mean look at you know you watch the real housewives of orange counties and then no that's what people think it's normal no i act like that that's that's what so-and-so does yeah well so-and-so's i mean that's not fucking normal i know but because like where are the shows out there like the ones that we grew up with where they had like a lesson in every episode? They don't really do sitcoms anymore, though, do they?
Starting point is 00:09:28 Well, I mean, they do, but nobody fucking watches them. Do you remember Home Improvement? Yeah, fuck yeah, Tim Allen. I'll tell you, you know, I got a— You know, Tim Allen was the original owner of one of my cars. Yeah, the Ford GT. Yeah, my 2005 black Ford GT. Fuck, I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:09:41 Yeah, he wrote his name underneath the hood. Yeah. Two places. He fucking signed it. I didn't know that. Yeah, he wrote his name underneath the hood. Yeah. Two places. He fucking signed it. I didn't ask him to sign it. That motherfucker came signed, just so you know. But it is bullshit.
Starting point is 00:09:52 Yeah, come on, man. He's like, Tim, Tim. I'll tell you what, that's a funny motherfucker. I fucking did look over the fence and say, hey, bro, can you fucking sign this? What's the guy
Starting point is 00:10:00 on the other side of the fence? Wilson. Wilson. Yeah. Never showed his mouth. All right, awkward silence. We. Yeah. Never showed his mouth. All right. Awkward silence. We were all taking.
Starting point is 00:10:08 We were both drinking. Dude, I don't know, man. You guys think that fucking affects the way people are acting? Yeah. It's kind of weird, man. Like there used to be, I don't know, a code of ethics. It seems like in society. And now it's just like,
Starting point is 00:10:25 like, dude, I was talking to one of my buddies today who brought up a point that I thought was really relevant. You know, we have these, we have all these movements, right? We have these like, uh, the me too movement. We've got the vegan movement. We've got all these movements about everything. And you know, there's things that happen to men all the time that nobody ever fucking talks about. And, uh, he was telling me about some of this shit. For example, he was telling, I'm not going to name his name. He was telling me how his fiance would punch and kick and throw shit at him and physically attack him. Right. And he posted about it and he said he got like thousands of DMs from other men saying, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Well, where is the movement for like. Domestic violence the other way, because I because i mean dude if we could fucking bring awareness to like because i could tell you for sure that's happened to me before oh i i i know it has yeah yes that's right yeah you've seen it yeah and twice actually yeah and not not with my wife no no right and i'm not going to say who it was or wasn't but i've been in relationships that were like that where somebody would get a couple drinks and they would fucking attack me physically. It would start out verbally and then it would go physical. And I'm big, dude.
Starting point is 00:11:53 I'm 6'1", 270 fucking pounds. All right. What do you do? You wear it. But that's what's expected to wear it right like that's what you're told because this guy I was talking to this guy and he was telling me how he was embarrassed to bring it up because it the reason he was embarrassed is because every other guy has had it happen to him and we've just had to wear it so he feels like a fucking pussy and I'm like well dude this
Starting point is 00:12:22 brings up an interesting discussion point well I think the first question that goes through a lot of people's mind is what did you do to instigate the girl like that's how society's wired yeah but it works both ways that's what i'm saying so at what and i could tell you for sure for sure there is a huge difference in our society between a man hitting a woman and a woman hitting a man. It is socially acceptable for a woman to hit a man in a lot of places. Dude, that's just the culture of America. People will say, oh no, it's not acceptable. No, that's never okay. And I agree, it's never okay. But there is a large segment of our culture that thinks there is a big difference between a man hitting a woman and a woman hitting a man. And I actually don't think there is. I don't feel like there is. I feel like
Starting point is 00:13:11 there is no difference because I've been in a relationship and a lot of women are like, well, what do you mean? There's no difference. You're this and this and this and this. You're 200 and she's 120. Yeah. That's why you shouldn't hit a man that's the truth and i'm not advocating violence of any meat there shouldn't be a hand raised to anyone but what if we brought more attention to this not being acceptable what would it do for the domestic violence that's happening out there i guarantee it's going to lower the rate but you don't see a bunch of dudes out there banding together saying yeah that happened to me too. Because they're afraid of getting their man card taken away.
Starting point is 00:13:47 That's right. And like, dude, that's not right either. So what's the solution here, activists, all you fucking activists out there? Why don't you go figure out a fucking solution for this and stop some of these crazy people from attacking men? And maybe there won't be as many retaliations or fistfights or things or women hurt because guess what men are much more powerful than women and men can't hurt women easier than women can hurt men but i'm going to tell you this getting punched in the face by 130 pound woman is really not that different than getting punched in the face by a fucking 200 pound man it might hurt a little bit less but it's going to fucking create a bad scenario the same yeah i mean i i mean i think the lesson how do you fix it i think that then you get to
Starting point is 00:14:29 start having the conversation that violence is not that answer well in any situation i i think some of these women who are speaking up should probably speak up to other women about not doing that shit yeah like it doesn't really matter if you guys are in a verbal argument what someone says to you There's no reason to go attack them. You know what i'm saying? Yeah now if someone attacks you have the right to defend yourself but When at what point is it? Okay, because I know for men it's never okay Like it's never okay to escalate from words to physical actions. It never has been
Starting point is 00:15:02 And most men listening have never laid a hand on a woman. And that's great. They shouldn't ever make no mistake about what the fuck I'm saying. What I'm saying is it's not okay for women to do the same thing back and first, and then just expect men to take it. Because as I was talking to this dude, he was telling me how fucking like embarrassed he felt of this and he didn't know how to how to say it so what do you think the solution is for this like you know i don't think it's okay for fucking women to be punching men under any circumstance i mean i look at it this way man like i i think if if i were in that situation i think if and somebody who's listening who's been in that
Starting point is 00:15:40 situation if you're in a relationship like that i would say it's time to exit that relationship i agree you know a hundred percent because what's going to happen to you is one plus one is two that's right you know it's going to escalate and it's going to escalate and you're going to end up being the one that goes to fucking jail and loses your job and gets your reputation ruined even if she was the one that started the physicalities and but i think there's a portion of people you know in society that are the the attraction is physical in that sense you know like they like that anger and you know that that passionate love because that's where a lot of people are derived from you know so that's a hard thing to walk away from if you're you know because people secretly that's those are emotions that people have you know and and i think you know if it was my friend
Starting point is 00:16:23 and i was giving advice i would say man it's it's probably time we exit that situation but find yourself in a good one dude i think that i think that brings up a whole nother scenario what you got one in three women experience some form of physical violence by a partner and one in four men experience it one one of one in three women and one of four men. Hmm. That's an interesting stat. I wonder how much of this... Well, how many are missing from that? That's what I'm saying. How many men are willing to admit that they get fucking...
Starting point is 00:16:52 It's not even viewed as physical abuse. Those cases aren't publicized. Why not? But if a man punches a woman in the fucking face, it's all over the news. He loses his job. His reputation is ruined. This is this. If you want equality,
Starting point is 00:17:40 how about that? We make it a quality like don't fucking hit a man and a man shouldn't hit a woman right yeah i think that's fucking pretty reasonable eye for an eye you know and i think if you're a woman and you hit a man and a man hits you back you got a problem on your hands you probably shouldn't have started it whether and i'm saying he's wrong too, but don't think you didn't bring it on yourself because you did. That's the truth. Men are expected to have this incredible restraint in all scenarios that women just aren't expected to have. You see what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:18:17 And that goes in a lot of different scenarios. I'm not bashing women. I'm just saying the fucking truth. It should go both ways. The respect should be equal. It shouldn't be one or the other. And no, dude, and if you're a dude out there beating on your girl, you're the fucking lowest piece of shit in the face of the earth.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Period. What did you do when it happened to you? Fuck, I fucking took it because I had to. What do I do? What do you do? Dude, I can tell you exactly what I did. I grabbed her by her fucking arms and looked at her dead in the eye like I was going to fucking kill her, and she calmed down and stopped. You exactly what I did. I grabbed her by her fucking arms and looked at her dead in the eye like I was going to fucking kill her.
Starting point is 00:18:46 And she calmed down and stopped. You get what I'm saying? Yeah, absolutely. Because she knew who the fuck, what she just did. You fucking, dude, you can't do that to people. Like people have a right to defend themselves. And if I had fucking actually defended myself within the right of, what would have happened to me? I'd end up probably in fucking jail.
Starting point is 00:19:05 It'd be my fault. I'd have a reputation for beating women my whole life when the truth is that was like the 70th fucking time that it happened. You know what I mean? So at what point does this become a real problem? Because I believe that it is a real problem. I believe there's lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of men who have been in similar relationships where they have been physically assaulted by women and never said anything to anyone because they're like, that's what you do as a man.
Starting point is 00:19:33 You just take it because that's what we're taught, dude. Yeah. I mean, I can't argue that at all. Yeah. I mean, you know, you know, to Tyler's point, like what causes a reaction? I mean, at that point, it doesn't really. I don't think it matters. Yeah. I don't think it's okay for fucking either person to to hit someone it's not okay you know i'm saying yeah so it really doesn't matter what they say or what what they said or
Starting point is 00:19:55 what they did when you take it to a different level it's a different level well it'd be like punching your barista in the face if they made your coffee wrong. Yeah. Yes. That's what I'm saying. I've got a lot of wrong coffee. Right. So who decides when you can escalate? Yeah. I mean, you know, man. I'm just saying in a man and woman relationship.
Starting point is 00:20:16 I don't. When's it OK? I don't think it is OK. OK. So you're being attacked. What do you do? You exit yourself from the situation. I agree.
Starting point is 00:20:24 That's I mean, that's the answer. File a report. But what I'm trying to say. situation. I agree. That's the answer. File a report. But what I'm trying to say. No, I understand. That shit ain't taken serious. Dude, you call the police and say my fucking wife was beating me? You know they're laughing behind the phone. That's right.
Starting point is 00:20:36 That's what I'm trying to point out. It's a fucking stereotype in society that is creating issues that should be solved. Like if you actually brought awareness to this fact, how many women would think about it before they slapped a dude or before they punched a dude? And, dude, it's a problem. Dude, I've been in two fucking relationships where I've been hit. I've never fucking laid my hand on a woman in any way like that.
Starting point is 00:21:00 It's never happened. You know what I'm saying? Why is that okay yeah but i mean dude i think the answer is it's not okay you know i mean that's the situation and that's the learning lesson from anybody in here dude i mean as as much as i believe in violence in the sense of protecting what you have, like especially from the country standpoint, I don't think that's a situation for violence in any way, shape, or form. No, I don't. I agree.
Starting point is 00:21:30 And I always try to say, hey, if you were on the street, what would you do? And the truth is if I was on the street and somebody attacked me, like I'm trying to whoop that dude's ass. You know what I mean? That's what's going down. So, you know, I know why it's a sensitive topic topic and I understand why people get up in arms about it. But the truth is, is like it's not right to raise a hand to anybody, especially in your own home that you're in a relationship. I agree. But it's very common. Yeah. I mean, you know, the only hand you should raise in your own home is one to maybe put your kids in line, which maybe that opens up Pandora's box in the sense of, you know, I do. I spank my kids. So I don't you know, I'm not.
Starting point is 00:22:03 Oh, my God, dude. Yeah, I know. You'd be'd be surprised though there's a lot of people that think that's that's taboo but I I I spank my kids I don't punch my kids I don't plan on punching my kids and that we weren't punches kids but man we had our asses beat a lot you know but I I think that's a correction action but the only the only hand that's gonna ever be raised in my home is if somebody comes in my home who's not welcome in my home well the only hand that's gonna be raised in my home is for a fucking sandwich or a beer yeah that's right so circling back around to this whole save by the bell like getting rebooted like dude what are some of the you know we're talking about our past like what are some of the movies that you guys wish or tv shows even that you wish would get rebooted i mean especially with top gun coming out dude Dude, 18. 18. 18. As a show, though, not as a movie.
Starting point is 00:22:47 The movie was not okay. It was okay. I still watch it if it's okay. I mean, how old are we going here? Anything. I mean, dude, I like Sandlot. I know you're a big Sandlot guy. Yeah, but you can't fuck that.
Starting point is 00:22:56 You can't fuck that. Dude, that would be blasphemy. Yeah. Well, I mean, but those are the movies that you want your kids to be raised on. That was a great movie. There's a lot of great lessons Talking about lessons In that movie
Starting point is 00:23:06 You know And dude There's a lot of There's a lot of stupid movies That were great Big Trouble Little China You know It's been making
Starting point is 00:23:12 The Great Outdoors The Great Outdoors The Great Fucking Movie I'd never redo that one either No It's a great duo Well you can't redo it Because he's dead
Starting point is 00:23:18 No I'm just saying You should never Try to redo it either though Even without Even with a different cast I caught what you were saying You guys both sound dumb right now just so you know you you you Do you hear about former Miss Florida going to jail because she was stealing her elderly mother's social security checks? Like, how fucked up is that?
Starting point is 00:24:59 Wait, what? Yeah, Miss Florida, a former Miss Floridaida was stealing her mother's social security checks dude i'll be talk about tagging your sponsor yeah no shit dude i don't know man like i'm not really surprised by anything going on right now uh this seems kind of minor it does seem pretty shitty but uh certainly isn't the dumbest or the craziest or the fucking stupidest thing I've heard. And you know this, and I think a lot of people, I was having this conversation actually with Raquel last night, is when it comes to money, don't trust anyone.
Starting point is 00:25:35 Everybody would take your shit if they could. I mean, I think that's a pure example of like that's how low people will go when it comes to taking people's shit. I agree. And, you know, this is why relationships evolve when you become more successful, to be completely honest, because they have to. Because if you don't make yourself friends with people who are on your level, everybody else really does kind of hate you.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Right. You know what I'm saying? And this is the truth. People have the wrong idea of what haters really are. Right. There's, there's people's internal voice that they like imagine. And then they think,
Starting point is 00:26:15 and then they kind of make up like what they think people are saying. Right. And then there's real haters. Like the guy who just murdered, murdered Randy Gorey and Edwardsville a week ago. Okay. So when you talk about haters, be very clear that when you talk about haters to people who actually do have people that hate them, you look like a fucking idiot. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:26:39 Yeah. Well, a true hatred really doesn't want to see the success or they want to see the success until to the point to where they are still connected and can receive from it. Yeah, and the minute that you don't give it, you're a piece of shit. That's correct. Dude, we don't even know the motive of why this dude killed him, but I guarantee you it had to do with money. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:01 I guarantee you, dude, at some point in time in time they're gonna find out that this motherfucker somehow wanted something from randy and randy somehow told him no told him no that's my guess pure speculation i get hit up two three times a day with fucking these huge long stories about how it's my responsibility to help someone who's down and this and that dude, I do help people that down that are down all the time, but those are people that I choose to help that I know are, those are my people in my circle. Right. Right. And then dude, when you become sort of a somewhat successful person in the public eye,
Starting point is 00:27:39 people just change. It's not that the successful person changes. You people change how they view you and how they utilize you and how they want the relationship to be. It completely changes it. By the way, if Andy sends you a DM, that does not mean that you are in his circle. That's another thing, yeah. Well, I think there's a clear delineation there, right, Tyler? And that comes from a safety aspect of probably maybe how that situation unfolded.
Starting point is 00:28:03 But when you're conversing with someone online and having a conversation or they follow you online, that doesn't mean you can show up to their house. That doesn't mean you can follow them around to sporting events and things like that. So, I mean, there's a – I think that the moral ethical boundaries that social lets down, like you still got to put them into play. Bro, I don't think people understand boundaries anymore. that the moral ethical boundaries that social lets down, like you still got to put them into play, bro. I don't think people understand boundaries anymore.
Starting point is 00:28:28 I think there's a whole generation of people that don't understand boundaries at all. They don't understand that. It's not normal to do certain things and act, behave certain ways. I mean, we see it in society all the time. We're seeing a moral breakdown of the code of behavior. I mean, we see it in society all the time. We're seeing a moral breakdown of the code of behavior.
Starting point is 00:28:46 I mean, dude, like when I was 12 years old or 13 years old, you know, even the baddest kids, like the baddest, baddest kids, the kids were bad. And we had some bad kids in our school. They still didn't like try to like stab the principal or like punch them or like use the law to get the principal in trouble because they act up so bad that they, you know, get in a physical altercation. Right. I mean, dude, there's like weird shit happening. Now the parents defend the action. I know. I know, man. And it's fucking scary.
Starting point is 00:29:23 It's got to scare you, dude, with kids. Well, I was having this conversation this morning, you know, and I think you are what you tolerate. And I think the majority of your kids' times are at home, you know. And, you know, those bad behaviors are taught in the home. And, you know, they have access to school to other bad kids. They do. But I still have the ability to correct that in my own home, know and lead from the front and teach right versus wrong have you had that happen already with them like going with like a little preschool and stuff yeah where you they they
Starting point is 00:29:52 picked up some shit at school and it came home and you had to fucking squash it well and you know listen enzo's gonna play rough yeah you know and and i'm gonna raise him to be aggressive and guess what yeah but don't you understand that like you're doing what you said what you're what what you're saying other parents do now i understand yeah so like it's a double-edged sword i know so like where's that line you know what i'm saying i do and i think that you know you have to always rely on the moral and ethics like i'm not teaching him to be a bad kid right i'm teaching him to go forward right you know and and moving forward i got to keep the guardrails on either side of it and i think that's the important lessons where you know
Starting point is 00:30:29 that's what dad did it for us yeah there's a big difference versus completely holding the brakes on a kid as well you know and then whenever enzo's out running around and he's playing aggressive and you know another kid's not playing that way it does make for interesting conversation or you know because i mean dude it's easy to like it like because i agree with how you raise your kids i mean let's just i'm playing just both sides i get it uh i've had i've already had this happen no i get it so i mean dude i agree with the way the way you're raising your kids the way they should be fucking raised yeah i so this is not me disagreeing with you. But what I'm saying is with all the different personal standards that are out there about how things should be raised, like how should like because I don't have kids that do this. Right.
Starting point is 00:31:12 Right. So I don't know. So how do you correct that shit at home? Like, give me an example. Well, I think, you know, it's kind of the beginning of the conversation. You know, it's never it's never OK to put your hands on other kids. Right. You know what I mean? Right. It's dude, it's no different than having dogs. Yeah. It's very similar the beginning of the conversation. It's never okay to put your hands on other kids. Right. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:31:25 Dude, it's no different than having dogs. It's very similar in that sense. You take your dog to the dog park. Put him in a cage when you want to leave the house and shit? Yeah. Well, yeah. No shit. No, but I mean, your dog is not acceptable for your dog to just go bite other fucking dogs.
Starting point is 00:31:37 You know what I mean? You got to teach and correct the action. Apparently, if they're my dogs, it is okay. Because I keep getting these fucking dogs that just bite the shit out of other dogs. Well, you're not correcting the action No, I am correcting it. It's just like secretly. I think they know that I kind of don't want anything around Yeah, just like get the fuck out of here, dude No, but I mean, you know raising kids
Starting point is 00:31:53 It's no different, you know and understanding that you have to respect other people's ways of how they want to raise their yeah Yeah, and that's okay Yeah, but see how do you that's like a that's like a hard thing to do man because you're trying to like teach one code Ethics at home and then they're getting taught a different code of ethics at school you know because like dude it's not okay to be um for kids to be aggressive and like play in sports anymore it's not okay like dude they'll just remove the kid from the fucking thing you know back when when we played sports growing up you you know, if you were aggressive and you did something, you fucking went to the penalty box. You know what I'm saying? Now it's like we want to remove this from the scenario so that all the kids can have a happier time.
Starting point is 00:32:37 But the problem with that is, is what happens when they're 20 years old and they fucking run into somebody who's aggressive or what happens when they're 25 and they run into a situation in business where you have someone who's going to legitimately like take their fucking lunch and take their spot take their career take their fucking house and they just let it happen because they never learned what you're trying to communicate but i think that's why moral and ethics are such a power plant and not only that that equation in children, but just in life in general, like, you know, the conversation we were having earlier about tactical negotiation, it's doing what's correct. Yeah, I agree, dude. And it's okay to stand up for what is correct. I agree. And where I it's funny, though, bro, because like, just like that meeting that we were talking about, people perceive people standing up and say, Hey, that's not fucking right. Yeah, people perceive people standing up and saying,
Starting point is 00:33:25 hey. That's not fucking right. Yeah, you're not going to take advantage of me. Right. And they take that as you being mean. Yeah. You know, like, oh, I'm being mean. No, motherfucker.
Starting point is 00:33:35 I'm not being mean. I'm holding you to what you said and what you committed to. But I think this is like, and something, I mean, get on, but I'm saying, you know, something that I take great like and i and something i mean get on but i'm saying you know to something that i take great pride in and i haven't always been that way but it developed the skill is like understanding when you're wrong too and addressing that problem you know and it's very difficult in your kids because like when they're wrong you want to
Starting point is 00:33:58 shelter them you know you want to protect them to it and you do it to yourself you just don't realize you do it to yourself but when your kids are acting out you got to be real fucking clear when there's another kid involved like maybe your kid was wrong and you need to correct that fucking action that's what i'm saying yeah and that's what i'm saying it's fucking hard but i don't think that happens in every house no because it's hard because it's an ego thing that's right it's my fucking kid that's right well and and and you're not doing your kid any favors by being that way. No. You're actually teaching him terrible habits. And the truth is, is that whenever you that situation, it's a great teaching moment because it shows them that you're a reasonable human who actually thinks about other people. That's right.
Starting point is 00:34:37 So that they're not they don't grow up to be one of these far left or far right fucking weirdos who thinks that just because they live a certain way that it's the right way you know well and and dude i mean i think a lot of that problem comes you know from being able to check yourself you know checking yourself is a hard for sure man it's awareness really what we're talking about it really comes down to awareness social awareness not even self awareness social awareness both right versus wrong it's both yeah and but understanding you can be wrong as long as you understand that you're wrong you don't defend the fact that you were wrong that's right you right like you like there's some things about yourself all of you listening that you're like yeah i probably shouldn't do that yeah and if you choose to do it you know that you're doing right versus wrong the wrong thing and it if it
Starting point is 00:35:23 blows up in your face you should say well that's what i get yeah you know and dude nobody i mean you think about all the arguments you've had over time you know if you can remove your ego out of that situation it's it's pretty easy to solve it's a very easy solve that's right you know like even in the business like dude how many times have we seen people's like literally in our industry people's egos just fucking destroy them burn their company down yeah end up in jail fucking you know be out of business like it is crazy dude people that were at the top too oh dude i see this in every every like with arte and how we see all these business owners dude this is the what you just said is the biggest fucking challenge.
Starting point is 00:36:06 It's your own fucking ego. Yeah. It's keeping you where you are. A lot of you guys got the wrong idea of what a big ego is about. Right. You think because someone lives in a nice house and they fucking show their shit or whatever, they think you got a big ego. That is fucking not true. It has nothing to do with it.
Starting point is 00:36:23 That just means they like cool shit. When you have a big ego is when you think you're right. You don't have any care for anybody's perspective. You think you know everything and you think you're more important than everybody else, which happens to be most of the people who accuse other people of having huge egos. Well, I mean, dude, you know, when you start making an emotional decision, it's really, really, really, really, really fucking tough to take your ego out of play. I mean dude You know When you start making An emotional decision It's really really really Really really fucking tough To take your ego out of play I mean no matter how big it is It just takes practice
Starting point is 00:36:51 It's hard to remove it Yes Because you're personally I mean this is why Politics and religion Is such a fucking Sensitive topic right Because you're
Starting point is 00:36:57 You're right Yeah but you should Still in those scenarios You should still In those scenarios Be able to detach Of course Yes
Starting point is 00:37:03 But people do not You know what I mean I agree And it's when It's your kids Yeah It's a whole different Fucking level scenarios, you should still in those scenarios be able to detach. Of course. Yes. But people do not. You know what I mean? I agree. And it's when you're when it's your kids. Yeah. It's a whole very emotional level. Yeah. And so I can see that. And so, you know, you do not. But I think, you know, that's when your kids grow up around that environment. You know, we grew up around that environment. You know, I don't think we ever recognize how valuable that was to us growing up. No. Fuck, dude. I do. dude i do yeah yeah i mean like when you think about especially raising kids you know like you know dad always standing for what was i mean you know and our dad was the guy who like if somebody's being a fucking asshole in the bar
Starting point is 00:37:34 like he would fucking say hey shut the fuck up shut the fuck up my kids are here and he would say fuck while the other and accuse the guys. But he was standing for what was right. It was uncomfortable. It was awkward for all. But he didn't give a fuck. He didn't give a fuck because it was correct. Right. You know, and and I think there's needs to be more of that in society.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Dude, my mom was the same way. Oh, no, no. Mom was. Yeah. Mom. Yeah. I mean, bro, I was thinking about this shit from nobody. I was I was I was thinking about this.
Starting point is 00:38:02 You know, when when we talk about all the lessons that we learned from dad but we did learn a lot of lessons from from mom too but i think the most important lesson that we learned in our lives actually came from mom not dad yeah it was always do the right thing that's right dude when you do the right thing like when i started and then when i started thinking about this because what happened was um i started smoking some weed and i got really fucking high and I got on this idea and I started thinking about it. And I'm like, what's the most important lesson that I ever learned in my life that made me the most money and the most successful and made me who the fuck I am? It's that.
Starting point is 00:38:36 It is. Because, dude, like, for example, we just got blown up on our customer service by some guy who's pissed off that we we back the blue did you see that i did not okay i mean literally just got here all right so when i was walking through customer service jordan's like hey man uh what should i do here and he shows me this big paragraph a man wants to return his order because he found out that we make back the blue and we support the police. And he thinks it's divisive towards the minorities in the community. And that was his story. And he has a right to think that.
Starting point is 00:39:12 I don't have a problem with that. I also have a right to believe that 99.9% of the police are great fucking humans. And I choose to support them. And I choose to donate my money to their causes of the fallen heroes. That's a big thing for us here at First Form. It's a big thing for us personally, both of us. support them and I choose to donate my money to their causes of the fallen heroes that's that's a big thing for us here at first form it's a big thing for us personally both of us dude that like pisses me off I know this is the point this is the point yeah but look believe that way that's right and so he was asking me how to respond and most people right now are listening and if you
Starting point is 00:39:39 follow me you probably share similar beliefs and if you don't that's fine too but I know most people's first reaction fuck that guy oh well you don't know where the fuck that guy that guy could have had a really bad experience dude and got his fucking ass beat for no reason by that one percent of bad what he who knows but i you know he asked me how he should handle i said dude just handle it very respectfully just say you know i'm sorry you feel that way yes we return the products we'll be happy to take it back and handle it like a professional like a grown-ass man that's right but dude and dude did it make me mad when i read it yeah it did but after i got mad for the 1.5 seconds i was mad i thought well i wonder what this guy's side of the story is it's got to be he probably has a
Starting point is 00:40:22 really good reason for thinking that and we always assume that people have you know shitty reasons for thinking that but you don't fucking walk in their shoes so you don't know you know what i'm saying well yeah i mean like this listen it's like bro i've had a bad fucking i had a bad experience with a cop one time real bad got fucking my head kneeled on and you know tossed around and not a very fucking friendly way and it wasn't like fun it was like very forceful it wasn't i've had my ass beat yeah dude i got yeah i got you know and it was not called for yeah i was i was i was in the wrong place at the wrong fucking time and i got grouped in with a group of people and i got my fucking head smacked dude it fucking i was pissed
Starting point is 00:41:03 it scraped up my face, gave me some black eyes. You know what, though? I shouldn't have been in that fucking spot. Yeah, I know. I should have fucking thought better. And the truth is, that's what that guy has to do to fucking make sure. He doesn't know if I'm going to fucking hurt him.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Yeah. He has no idea. He's protecting his ass. That's right. He wants to go home to his kids. And so I could easily say, Yeah, I get it. Fuck that, dude.
Starting point is 00:41:24 They fucking too rough and this and that. And dude, I know a lot of people have that feeling, but let's go home to his kids and so i could easily say yeah i get it fuck that dude they fucking too rough and this and that and dude i know a lot of people have that feeling but like let's stop and think what it's like to be the cop also that's why i stop and think what it's like to be that guy that's right you see what i'm saying so i'm not mad at that guy if you're listening right now and you you're that guy dude look if that's how you feel i just encourage you to understand how we feel as well yeah and why know, a good friend of ours got his fucking face shot off a mile away. Okay. This is a guy who came here, who worked our events. Like, we support this man and his family.
Starting point is 00:41:56 And we support all the other good officers out there. Now, if you're a shitty officer, fucking don't be a shitty officer. Listen, I've had, I mean, you know, I've had my ass beat by a cop, and I'm not saying it wasn't unjustified. Well, you're a professional at getting your ass beat. That's a fucking fact. Man, I'll tell you what, I got my ass beat, too. Did you deserve it?
Starting point is 00:42:13 Well, here's the thing, is I beat this dude up in the street, and then I got... So you deserved it. Yeah. I got my ass beat by the cop. So, I mean... A little bit of instant karma.
Starting point is 00:42:22 Yeah, well, hey, listen. But, you know, I mean, it is, you know, listen but i you know i mean it is you know in that point it is what it is i've had that's a that's an example removing your own ego though yeah like dude sometimes you got to say well that's what i fucking deserve listen i got i've had a lot more positive interactions than i have negative yeah fucking one million yeah you know and for sure i think it comes back to you know doing the right thing and checking your ego and being able to have that conversation. You know, an adult like you said to Jordan, you know, hey, man, that guy, that's how he you know, in my sense, that's how they're going to raise their kid or that's how that, you know, he's that's how he wants to live his life.
Starting point is 00:42:55 That's OK. Do I agree? You know what I mean? Yeah. And I think it's and you know what? You could have dinner with that guy. Totally. You know, honestly, I would love to have dinner with that guy and just find out why the fuck he thinks that.
Starting point is 00:43:04 That's right. It doesn't mean I'm going gonna yell at him or be mad at him i'm gonna say hey why do you think that and we're gonna have a talk dude you know what's cool you know tyron tyron woodley yeah like he's here in st louis uh fucking welterweight legend ufc stud i know a lot of you guys follow him and know him but he's cool like that like dude he has him and i have a lot of belief we have a lot of has, him and I have a lot of beliefs. We have a lot of beliefs that are similar. We have a lot of beliefs that are different. And you know why they're different?
Starting point is 00:43:29 Because we grew up fucking different. Way different. We have a completely, he's black. I'm fucking not black. He grew up over here. I grew up in the country. He grew up in Ferguson. I know.
Starting point is 00:43:39 That's what I'm saying. So, like, dude, we have different perspectives. That doesn't mean. We should hate each other. And it doesn't mean he's wrong and I'm right that's right so I think if we take a minute as people to like just remove this mentality of like I have to win I have to win the conversation ego dude when you stop trying to win conversations with your boss and with your wife and with your fucking husband and all these other places shit will start working for you i promise you well you got to look for the resolution man i mean
Starting point is 00:44:09 people who make the most money in the world do what solve fucking problems that's right and they're great at it and that's a good way to start solving them that's right because you start with yourself that's right dude you know what's crazy is going back to doing the right thing and how things have changed like and bringing up sales aggressive negotiations man like it's crazy how business used to be done like it used to be oh my word is my bond or we're gonna agree on a handshake now motherfuckers with like signed paperwork they'll still try to go back on that paperwork like dude for sure for sure but i would say that's still a minority of people i will tell you this. Okay, here's what I'll say about that.
Starting point is 00:44:49 And I think this is very accurate. It's been very accurate for me. When you're at a lower level of business, when you're at the zero to, let's say, five million level, a lot of motherfuckers act like that, a whole lot. When you get to between five and like 50 million, it's less. There's just less. Because those people eventually get stomped down. So when you get like over 100 million, dude, it's not like that.
Starting point is 00:45:17 It's everybody gets it. Everybody knows that everybody's got to have money and they got to get a piece of the pie. Everybody. This has been my example. Everybody gets it and it's openly discussed. And we say, hey, you got to make fucking, what do you got to make? Just say what you got to make. What do you got to make?
Starting point is 00:45:37 10%. Listen, I was just going to tell the story about the furniture game. Yeah, tell it. That we're going through. Yeah, tell it. Like to Andrew's point, it's dead on. I buy millions and millions and millions and millions's point is dead on i i buy millions and millions and millions and millions of dollars of raw goods and supplies and labels and lids every fucking week i don't have one agreement in place no i have handshakes that's right and i i
Starting point is 00:45:54 think this this goes through to to you know like when i die like i always say you know i talk about death but people think about business like that they think about business is like all these crazy contracts and this this and this and this dude dude that isn't really how business is done business at the top levels is still done on word well that's when you should be most afraid in the business yeah i know but you're not because everybody at that level understands the point i'm talking about the more contracts and paperwork you have like that's when you should be the most afraid that's fucking fake business that's correct okay that's fake business it's not even real shit that's what people don't get that's not even fucking real ed and i run arte cynic on a fucking handshake chris and sal and i have an agreement on a fucking handshake on a handshake
Starting point is 00:46:35 okay that's how business works at top level it just does are there contracts in place yes a hundred percent but the contracts are rarely discussed and they're never brought out until there's a real problem. And so what I'm saying is people don't at that level, I'm not saying there's no contracts. What I'm saying is their word actually means their word, which is why he was getting so upset about what he was dealing with today. So, you know, that's something that I think is important for people to understand that's bottom feeder shit when people do that and and what are they trying to do in that bottom feeder level they're trying to
Starting point is 00:47:13 make the most they can that's right they're trying to take take take which is why they never get any that's correct yeah the true thing about business is fair you start dude fair being fair that is true man you let me do this. It's just short-term thinking, right? It is. Yeah. Dude, the thing is, is like... Well, I'll cut you off,
Starting point is 00:47:54 but the thing that I've learned at the top level, when I say at the top level, I don't mean because we're far from where we want to go. Yeah, but we are classified as a big business. Yeah, and I think everybody has skin in the game, but the reason they get to that point is because a great business deal is good for you, it's good for me, and it's good for the customer. That's right.
Starting point is 00:48:15 And any time that equation gets out of tilt, out of whack, the relationship starts going bad. Yeah, but everybody knows that's what happens at that level, so they don't do it because they level so they don't do it because they they want to be able to do business in the next year the next year in the next year and to your point like hey how much do i have to make it okay well i can i have to make this percent in order to survive okay cool let's operate out of that right figure out how we make this work right you know right so you make 10 uh dude i need to make two and i need to fucking third on performance, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:48:45 And it's all just discussed openly like that. That's right. It's very simple. But people make it hard with the fucking papers because they want the magic in the deal. And where's the magic? That's where you get fucked. Dude. When you start to read something and it don't make sense to you,
Starting point is 00:48:58 you're getting a big fucking donkey dick right in your ass. I promise you. What's wrong with that? Where there's mystery, there's margin that's right you know so and mystery's in the 13 page of the contract that you already at that point you're thinking about something you saw on instagram that's right dude what's funny though is that people like i can always tell what kind of people i'm dealing with by the way they fucking talk about paperwork oh yeah you know what i'm saying uh dude when we when you're and this is a problem with the young entrepreneurs you know we'll talk a little business for a minute is you guys you're
Starting point is 00:49:31 always focused on what's in it for me what can i get what can i do just like sal was saying a minute ago the problem is is that that's not how you get paid in business all right you get paid by doing a fucking amazing job and then you grow your business because who you did the amazing job with or for tells people about it that's the truth so what we have is a situation of kind of thinning the herd as you progress up in the economic scale of business you at the bottom levels you have a lot of people trying to do what you just said go back on their word go back against the contract do different shit that have a lot of people trying to do what you just said. Go back on their word. Go back against the contract. Do different shit.
Starting point is 00:50:07 That happens a lot at the low levels. And the reason that they don't get to the higher level or the mid-level is because they do that shit. And when they start doing that shit, everybody tells everybody, this is the kind of dude that you are or the kind of girl that you are. And you can't get to the middle level. So when I always talked on the mfco that being a quality human and doing the right thing actually makes you the most money and when i said about my mom a minute ago teaching us that that's why we've been able to keep growing because we don't ever fuck anybody and we do the right thing and you do what you said you're gonna do that's
Starting point is 00:50:39 right and so it's the most important thing dude and life and business it really is and i know that sounds like a lot of the younger guys are like oh dude they're with a special pill fucking old It's the most important thing, dude In life and business It really is And I know that sounds Like a lot of the younger guys Are like, oh, dude Yeah, they want the special pill Fucking old You're old school No, motherfucker
Starting point is 00:50:50 I'm telling you That's the way it is If you do what's right You do what you said You're gonna do You're gonna fucking be successful In business Even if it costs you money
Starting point is 00:50:58 That's right And it does sometimes And you know what's funny Is you talk about Quality of character You know When I had that Conversation today It was very stern Aggressive Some would call it hard conversation to have because you know when
Starting point is 00:51:10 you first start having it makes i think you at one point you did say like fuck you yeah so i mean it was it was aggressive but understanding that they okay so when if you stand for what's correct they understand that yeah you know what i mean? So like further on down the road, when you start having different conversations, they learn to trust you because you'll do what's right. You'll stand up for what's right. You're not trying to get them for something. But that's what gets you the next deal. Correct.
Starting point is 00:51:34 And the next deal. Hey, go deal with him because he's a fair guy. Right. He's a fair guy. This is where people fucking miss it. They don't see that like how behaving with like a good moral integrity is beneficial in business they think it's a they think it's a buzzword they think it's you know some shit that Gary Vee just fucking shouts about like be good have empathy kindness they think it's fucking
Starting point is 00:51:57 bullshit because he says it so much but the truth is all that shit is really what he's saying is do the right fucking thing and when you do the right fucking thing. And when you do the right thing, good things happen. It's just the way it is. And I'm going to tell you from dealing with and being friends with literally not millionaires, but a hundred millionaires, pretty much all the dudes I fucking roll with, at least that's how they operate. If they say the, the, the real, the most successful guys I know are the ones that fucking do exactly what they say. And even if they think exactly what they say isn't fair, they'll make it fair even if it costs some money. That's correct.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Dude, I've had people come back to me and I've come back to other people at certain times in business deals. And I've been like, look, dude, we're making way more money than what I thought we were going to make. So I'm going to cut you in a little bit more here to make and dude that's what you fucking do well and no nobody will say that shit because really nobody knows it well yeah because it's scary you risk losing the business right no they they look at they look at like these crazy like tycoon movies you know like about like fuck like Wall Street and like these movies were. And dude, there's truth to those movies. Like a lot of these guys up there, they're fucking criminals, man.
Starting point is 00:53:08 But they are the exception. But those guys always fall. That's the point. Like you always get caught. The Jeffrey Epstein's of the world who fuck everybody literally and figuratively and financially. Guess what happens? They don't hang themselves.
Starting point is 00:53:24 Or did you? It's sad. I couldn't resist it's sad that you know you think in today's world like we're laughing at the the conspiracy right yeah we're laughing at the guy's death but the truth of the matter is to andrew's point you know you look at that guy was a bad guy yeah no no dude okay like i don't give a yeah from what i would fucking shed about as many tears as i would shed for osama bin laden yeah zero right or maybe an applause yeah a total applause yeah so so let's be fucking straight about it yeah no no i'm just saying you know when you go back to having those business deals you know when you're losing money in a situation
Starting point is 00:54:01 but you did what you said you were going to do you still win you not only do you win it's appropriate because you've done you did what you said you were going to do. You still win. Not only do you win, it's appropriate because you did what you said you were going to do at the loss of money. You can readdress the situation and say, you know, hey, man, I did what I said I was going to do, but I want you to know I said I could do it at 10 points. I lost money here. I lost money here. And it put me in a bad spot. And I don't want to put you in a bad spot moving forward. So let's renegotiate. I need 13 or 14 points in order for this to be worth my time bro that happens all the time oh yeah it happened both ways to our
Starting point is 00:54:29 benefit and to the other company's benefit but dude that's also why we continue to grow that's why our customer base continues to grow because we do the same thing inside the way we treat them it's really simple man you even teach your employees this too though like that's very uncommon you you teach them to do the right thing well why wouldn't i well i'm just saying like not a lot of companies will invest the time and energy and the money to actually teach their employees that well i mean dude like it's very simple like you have to give your employees autonomy you have to let them do shit like if you try to create a system where you dictate their every move, they're going to be unhappy in a robot. That's normal. But I think a lot of entrepreneurs are scared of giving
Starting point is 00:55:09 autonomy to their employees. Of course they are. But that's because not that's because they're beginning entrepreneurs or they're unsuccessful entrepreneurs. And that's a little bit of ego. That's right. They want to fucking control everything. That's right. So great entrepreneurs, because that's that's what I'm talking about when I say this. They understand that you have to give your employees autonomy. So how do you get your employees to have autonomy and execute the plan? You create core values and culture in your company so that people want to do the best right thing. They aren't forced to do the best right thing.
Starting point is 00:55:40 Speaking on culture, man, there's like we're in the lowest uh you know historically we are at the lowest employment rate right now but the big companies out there right now unemployment rate yeah did i say yeah employment yeah lowest unemployment rate yeah and the biggest companies out there right now are actually having like basically wars over the the minimum wage talent dude you don't say so wait so you come in and you fix the economy and you bring jobs that were overseas back to our country and and all of a sudden there's more jobs so more people have careers so there's less the way i don't understand that doesn't even make sense to me i sense sarcasm i mean what the fuck man this is what i don't understand how people don't get this like dude when you have jobs in america people people have
Starting point is 00:56:39 jobs they have careers right when you send them to fucking wherever, guess what? They don't have jobs. It's very simple. And when there's more jobs, that means there's more good jobs. And when there's more good jobs, guess what happens? You make more money. That's right. And what's really happening here is these fucking companies have treated their employees like shit for so long and not trained them like we've trained them.
Starting point is 00:57:02 And now they have people who are better companies better to work for and they have options so they can go to a company like ours or other quality companies and find a place to fit in because we're the ones that are growing the most and so what's happening is these shitty companies are running into a situation where they you know like i said they haven't delivered if you go find one of these companies who everybody says they love to work for they are not having a fucking problem finding people look at chick-fil-a they're not having a problem when you say shit shitty too like understand that andy's talking about like major companies that are in the world like amazon and fucking you know
Starting point is 00:57:38 all these fast food chains like target costco and then like dude they're big it's not listen there's some of these companies do well, like, in terms of culture and fucking treating their employees in good places to work. But what I'm saying is the companies that are having problems are the companies that aren't offering fair wages. So instead of, and this is where I want to tie this together for you guys that don't understand this. Instead of trying to legislate $15 minimum wages,
Starting point is 00:58:07 let the economy fucking handle it on its own and vote for the economy. You see what I'm saying? So like when you have a good economy and people are hiring and growing and creating jobs, less people get to work at fucking Taco Bell. That's just the way it is. So you don't have to raise the minimum wage. The minimum wage was never intended to be a living wage. It's intended to be something in addition to. It's not a fucking career for most people. And by the way, those companies can make a career if you work a certain way for a certain amount of time. There's lots of people that have careers at fucking taco bell well speaking of taco bell you know that they're actually quote-unquote
Starting point is 00:58:48 testing a hundred thousand dollar uh base salary for general managers yeah they're gonna have to they're gonna have to because that's what retail managers are getting paid now they're fucking they at least have a comp system that allows them to make that sort of money we do i mean that's that we've been doing that for how many years so you know what's happening dude is the culture companies are swallowing everybody up and all the regular companies that treat everybody like a number they're fucking having problems with people right now so you can tie us back to kids you know what i mean the economy is going to correct business in itself and it's whenever you if you raise you know in my opinion if you raise your kid to be strong moral values,
Starting point is 00:59:27 a forward-moving asset, when he goes to the world, he will swim. He's going to have more opportunities, too. He'll have more opportunity. And that comes through with a lot of failure, but it comes with a lot of tests. It comes with a lot of, you know, not doing what society always says is okay,
Starting point is 00:59:43 or, you know, it's standing your fucking ground. And I hate to, I'm not trying to make it a political play, but Donald Trump was simply just doing what he said he was going to do. You know what I mean? I'm going to eliminate jobs over there. I'm going to bring them here, and we're going to let all of it take care of itself. And it's interesting that there's people mad about it. Like, how can you be mad?
Starting point is 01:00:00 But that's ego. That's ego, man. How weird is that? I mean, how can you be, if you're a fucking American, how can you be mad about the economy? Like, why are we talking about, like, dude, I see people, like, hoping that the fucking economy goes bad. Man, that's fucked up. Like, dude, like, we fucking live here, motherfuckers. Not only that.
Starting point is 01:00:21 Like, dude, if. What's the. What does it matter that the guy you don't like the guy i get it you don't like him you think he looks weird you think he talks weird you don't like his fucking personality and all this shit i whatever but what do the fucking numbers say hey man i don't like howard schultz that you know the guy that owns starbucks yeah but i fucking drink the fuck out of his coffee because he makes good coffee. Hey, you know what, dude?
Starting point is 01:00:49 That's actually a great fucking point. Yeah, I just, I don't. I think it would be nice for people in this country to bond over being an American and actually root for us winning as a fucking country instead of rooting for their fucking mascot. Well, I'll tell you what's what's sad you know and i remember this i mean i think everybody can probably reflect back and maybe not everybody because a lot of the a lot of the listeners are young but you know when 9-11
Starting point is 01:01:14 happened 9-11 was a terrible day i mean you can you can know exactly where you're at and who you were with and the conversations you had but what came of that for i don't want to say a short period of time but for a pretty good period of time but still short over in the big picture was a great sense of unity you know it was a great sense of america was a great sense of pride and i still have i still have that no no i understand but when you see it from all sides it would be a great place to be right now because if we could tie the the back half of like oh he's going to war and he fucking sucks and he's like what happens like what about we're doing really fucking good as a country right now? We should have a lot.
Starting point is 01:01:48 We should have more fucking pride right now than we have ever fucking had. Yeah, but it doesn't serve certain people's agendas. So they got to be angry about it. That's the point. That's because they're pissed off. That's a self. That's over. That's either selfish.
Starting point is 01:01:59 And I either have money in the game or fame in the game or power in the game, or I love the mascot, the figurehead of my party, and these ideals more than I love America winning. That's fucking sick. I know, but that's the truth. It's the truth. And people don't even stop to consider that. Like, dude, I didn't vote for fucking obama i didn't like his whole story i didn't like his plan i think obama's cool as fuck i would hang out with obama
Starting point is 01:02:32 i think he's fucking awesome i think i would like to learn how to speak like him he's a great speaker he's the best for real the best the best like that motherfucker make you believe shit you didn't even fucking believe you know i am black i am black exactly i know why people bought that shit yeah i do too because i kind of bought it good yeah but like dude i respect all that and and like you said earlier like i sit down and have fucking drinks with them and i don't hate the motherfucker how cool would it be to like sit down and have fucking drinks with that motherfucker it'd be cool but also i think it would be cool with trump i think it'd be fucking hilarious i think it'd be hilarious to have both those motherfuckers and then have drinks i would love to see those two sit down and have drinks together oh me too man
Starting point is 01:03:12 you know like you know you know there'd be some shit talking because obama's a good shit talker too i know he's he's quippy yeah yeah like he's twitter talker yeah yeah yeah dude he's got those but trump is too man who's more who's wittier dude i don't know i mean i i you know obviously i don't know i'm total speculation here but i i think obama would probably be quicker to the gun than than trump yeah i don't know man i think trump would go deeper though i think trump would like you know like whenever you know see here's what it is it's the same thing you say about me like you always said this. Dude, if someone throws a pebble at me, I throw them back a fucking boulder.
Starting point is 01:03:49 Yeah, right. And so I know that's how Trump is, too. So, like. You fucked up my saying, by the way. What? It's grenade and nuclear bomb. You throw a grenade at Andrew, he throws back a nuclear bomb. Well, fuck, that's what you do.
Starting point is 01:04:01 He breaks the door. So that would be the Obama the obama uh trump conversation right for sure like like obama's gonna say some shit that's kind of funny and like quick yeah throw that grenade and then trump's just gonna like be like yeah bro no trump's gonna say is i got the fucking dow jones the 30 000 say what yeah yeah he's gonna rip out all these fucking stats yeah i got unemployment at the lowest rate it's ever been in u.s history what yeah he's going to rip out all these fucking stats. Yeah, I got unemployment at the lowest rate it's ever been in U.S. history. What? Yeah, he's going to take all the fun out of the conversation.
Starting point is 01:04:29 That would be like a five-minute dinner. Oh, dude, they would. I still go to it, though. See, I bet you secretly they'd be friends. Dude, for sure. For sure they would be. There's no question. They can pretend all they want.
Starting point is 01:04:41 They fucking hate each other, but there's a mutual respect there both ways. Did you guys see the picture of it was a mock-up of Trump with his wig and without his wig? With the fucking two-man shoe? That was badass, dude. He looked like a former Navy SEAL. Yeah, dude. It was cool. The whole internet is like, dude, he should totally do that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:59 Well. I don't think he can grow hair on his head, much less on his face. What is it? He got fake hair? Is that fake? Fuck, I don't know. It looks like it's fake. I don't know, dude. I'll tell you, much less on his face. What is he got fake hair? Is that fake? I don't know. It looks like it's fake. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:05:07 I'll tell you what, when the wind's blowing, buddy. Yeah, he's probably nervous. The comb over central is happening. Oh, dude. I don't know, man. I think the salaries and all that. I think, dude, it doesn't surprise me at all. It's the organic way of how this should go.
Starting point is 01:05:22 Well, dude, it's actually kind of funny. Like some of the incentives these big companies are offering like how do they miss the mark starbucks create an app a meditation app for their employees church is kicking i don't know dude for the for for starbucks employees that might be appropriate to their culture bro like i mean i'm being serious like you go into starbucks they're all the same kind of people i mean a direct quote was we didn't ask for a meditation app we want to be able to pay our rent. Well, well, I would agree with that. But I don't know.
Starting point is 01:05:51 I don't fucking know their culture, bro. But I think that's a weird thing to do. Yes. But I'll tell you, I mean, dude, like, hey, all my employees are fucking leaving to go elsewhere. So I'm going to create a fucking meditation app. Calm down, bro. It ain't that bad. Church's Chicken is giving out new uniforms.
Starting point is 01:06:04 Oh, well, fuck. That's that's amazing. I'm sure that'll keep lots of people they're fucking i mean nude but i you know it's a it's a real issue because you know that's the biggest i think at least when i look at it there's a lot of lessons to be learned from my from my seat but secondarily man like that's why it's always whoa whoa here's a good one though mcdonald's launched a campaign called where do you want to be which partners a handful of workers with experts including rapper yaz yaz the greatest do you fucking know who that is no i have no idea i don't have a clue it is all right and dermatologist mina singh to discuss career options, let me help you with this, McDonald's.
Starting point is 01:06:46 Where do you want to be? Not at fucking McDonald's. Like, what the fuck? Where does McDonald's want to be? Let's leave them outside of McDonald's. Why don't you show them the opportunity up the ladder? How does that go down in a border? This is their effort to attract more employees? Are you being fucking serious right now?
Starting point is 01:06:59 I'm dead serious. Man, I mean. Bro, you guys need some help. We got some consulting services available. We do. I could literally change this for you in about three days for and it would make you like billions of dollars. Yeah, be real easy.
Starting point is 01:07:12 You would go outside. You would switch all the M's to a red Chick-fil-A sign and you'd be fucking back. Hey, it's fucking true, man. Pay me, motherfucker. Give it away. I don't know shit. I spend more fucking money Every month at Chick-fil-A
Starting point is 01:07:27 Than I do any other Fucking restaurant Why? Dude Why? Because they make a quality product And they have unbelievable service Mostly on Sundance
Starting point is 01:07:34 No no The bottom line is It's just better It's better It's a better Dude it's a better overall experience And you know what? I feel good giving them money
Starting point is 01:07:43 Because they're kicking fucking ass like those kids are in their kids you know like those kids back there working they're doing what their parents okay are raising their kids the right fucking way okay and what's fucking chick-fil-a known for their fucking culture that's right and dude you know what they raised it's saying it for fucking six years now motherfuckers you don't get it this is why chick-fil-a beats the fuck out of everybody else yeah this is it okay do they make better product yeah they make better product you know why they make better product because they got a culture that cares about making the best fucking product you guys don't get it this is real simple and they take pride in the delivery bro
Starting point is 01:08:21 hey we're gonna build some culture, dude. I rented out a fucking paintball field. You fuckers don't get it, man. You don't get it. If you want to get it, join Arte Syndicate, and I'll fucking teach it to you. Well, not only that, though. I mean, dude, Chick-fil-A's kicking the fuck out of everybody, and they only compete six out of seven days.
Starting point is 01:08:40 They give you Sunday to catch up. They're giving you a day off, man. That's how you know they know that they got the secret sauce. No shit. Speaking of secret sauce, dude, their yellow sauce. Bro, I think we should do the same. I think we should shut our website down on Sundays just to fucking give everybody else a chance to catch up.
Starting point is 01:08:58 That's so nice of them. Can we not do Sundays? Sunday's a good day for us. We'll figure out another day. The only thing that chick fil a they have the secret sauce though they're fucking chick-fil-a sauce is fucking gas man only thing that they do that bugs me is whenever they take the tray to you and you you thank them and they say my pleasure it's like it's a script that's it's a script but oh god that that saying
Starting point is 01:09:21 just creeps me the fuck out no i don't i don't know why. That's a testament to their culture. Fuck yeah. There's a story told in that company about why you say that that matters, and that's why they do it. I promise you, that's not an accident thing that they just say, oh, this is a good thing to say. Very purposeful. There's a fucking reason for it.
Starting point is 01:09:44 There is, but that phrase is just always kind of just well you know what dude i i not why are you giving me ammo dude let's fuck with you now i think it's the i mean every time i hear it i think it's the greatest fucking thing i hear because you think man when you go you might have and you know this so you go to one wendy's wendy's this wendy's is fucking great but don't go to that wendy's over there it's terrible Chick-fil-A's been able to establish a fucking line And their people and leaders And leaders within Have been able to hold that line
Starting point is 01:10:10 And when you go to any Chick-fil-A You get a similar product You get a similar feel Almost identical And dude they have the culture Because they keep those They keep those employees That have pride in the product that they produce
Starting point is 01:10:20 Oh and by the way What do you gotta do to keep employees to care? You gotta pay them You gotta fucking No First of all you to keep employees to care you gotta pay them fuck it no yeah first of all you got to care about them and you gotta pay them yeah i mean that's what companies don't get companies think they can just pay motherfuckers now and these people are going to stay that taco bell model ain't gonna work no it isn't it's not gonna work because it's not worth and dude this is why most of the business owners that are listening here struggle. People have options.
Starting point is 01:10:46 They have places to go now. This is not seven years ago where fucking you were the best option out there. You may have been at that time, but it's evolved because there's companies out there that understand how to specifically create a certain culture based around certain values that they believe and because they teach the companies and the people in the company to to abide and adopt and ingrain that culture in what they do now everything else runs smoothly but people don't take the time to do it because they run they don't know how to do it like i said they think going and fucking paintball in her go-kart and his culture it's not culture dude you have no idea what it even means but that's most companies hey we're gonna have a fucking birthday party in the kitchen for karen
Starting point is 01:11:36 in 20 minutes we got great company culture meanwhile everybody hates karen you're a fucking idiot that's the truth what What is the fuck Karen movement? I don't know. Karen's just like a name that you could throw in there. It's just the most basic fucking name ever. I think it's a hashtag on TikTok.
Starting point is 01:11:52 Yeah, I don't know how that got famous, but I get it. I don't know if there's a story there. There's even a Karen haircut where it's just like that. You know it's a Karen
Starting point is 01:11:58 walking in to argue with the manager whenever you see her. That's an unfair stereotype. I know some wonderful Karens did you know it's weird is how uh each generation has like their pool of names you know you got my name has never been really that common but it's still common enough people know it i love my name because it's like you don't know too many other andys like there's just not a lot of them out there
Starting point is 01:12:21 now i happen to know another one now who happens to be way bigger than me. And now I'm at 6'1 and 270 fucking pounds of twisted steel and sex appeal. Not anymore. You're number two now. I've become little Andy. What the fuck? What the fuck? Big Andy's fucking big, though.
Starting point is 01:12:42 That's what I'm saying. Like, he's so much bigger. Like, I got to be little. Or, like, my medium. Like, who's the little Andy, then? Maybe... I would say you're still XL. I just...
Starting point is 01:12:52 He comes from the big and tall store. He's an XXL. Okay, so he doesn't even count in the conversation. I don't think so. So we could both be Big Andy. Yeah. Because, like, dude, I'm big for an average person. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:13:02 But that dude's just big, like a mountain big. It's a different kind of big. That was part of the argument that I had with the Builders Group today is we had to install a couple special toilets to hold Big Andy. Dude, for real. Dude, they better have fucking power flush on their two, motherfucker. Holy shit. Oh, man.
Starting point is 01:13:21 So, time for dumbest motherfucker of the land. I'm pretty sure McDonald's could have made this list this week. Holy shit. Oh, man. So time for dumbest motherfucker of the land. I'm pretty sure McDonald's could have made this list this week. Bro, I'm reading through these companies, and we could just go off on all of them. Like, what the fuck do you guys think people want? They want to have a good time at work. They want to be part of the company, and they want to get paid fairly. Okay, so this is a great example to teach you that like look at taco bell you know money can't fix everything just because you're gonna pay the guy a hundred fucking grand doesn't mean your company's gonna turn around no dude people
Starting point is 01:13:52 are done people are done trading their lives for just money correct they're done it's over well they don't have to they don't have to anymore right because there's all these other companies that have followed the lead of a few companies. We're one of them who have created these crazy fucking amazing, inclusive, badass cultures where, dude, when I come here, I feel it like we fucking made it like the number one thing that I get from the vendors who come in and they're like, dude, this place has a buzz. Bro, Alex said it to me yesterday or the day before. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:26 So Alex sitting in here, he's one of our security guys. He says he's like, dude, everybody's so nice there. What is that like that? You guys got a good thing going. And that's the culture. My pleasure. Right. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:14:38 Your pleasure. No, but I'm saying that's the core. The course, you know what the fuck he meant. Yeah. Fuck you, dude. I've developed some you know what the fuck he meant. Yeah. Yeah. Fuck you, dude. I've developed some good young men in here and women. Yeah. You got my play.
Starting point is 01:14:51 You got fucking Tyler. Yeah. Tyler's good. You used to make fun of me for locker room leadership. He'd be like, fuck your locker room. That's that's because you're not. You're not doing locker room leadership anymore. Now you're doing it the way I told you.
Starting point is 01:15:03 And it works. Kangaroo court. Say your pleasure, Andy. My pleasure. No, why don't you just remove your ego from the situation and allow that to be your truth? Like it's our truth. And to Andrew's point, this is how good I can spin it on him.
Starting point is 01:15:17 You know, the people with the most ego can't understand it. Maybe it's just that they're not right. I agree. It's happening right now. It's clearly happening right now. Yes, it just happened right just happened to you it just happened oh i'm nominating both of you for dumbest motherfuckers of the land okay when you've won dumbest motherfucker of the land before you can't nominate other people and you've won that a number of times bro i'm 365 we built you a really big office just to house all those fucking trophies.
Starting point is 01:15:47 That was the other upgrade that we had in the meeting today. What's your fucking trophy room at home looking like for dumb motherfucker awards? It's got to be packed. You guys are starting to send them to me digital. Bullshit. Literally, I had to. You're getting just certificates or coins and shit. I'm getting an email.
Starting point is 01:16:02 No, it's going to be a fucking toilet seat. That's what you get. And dude, I had to reinforce the fucking exterior wall of your office because it has fucking extra toilet seats. It's got so many. Oh, the toilet seat is like hanging around your neck? Yeah. It's like a chain, but it's a toilet seat.
Starting point is 01:16:18 That would be a great fucking like, you know, hey, you did something really fucking. No, like if you didn't change a toilet paper roll. You get to wear that for a day. And we're going to identify this. You are the guy who left the cardboard on the fucking thing. I think that's a great fucking plan. Let's run it by HR. Does HR agree?
Starting point is 01:16:32 Yes, they do. Madat? Yeah. All right. So dumbest motherfucker of all the land is our new segment that we're putting in every episode. A woman attempts to smuggle banned cosmetics disguised as a baby. Now, if you guys see this picture, it it legit looks like a like pajamas filled up with cosmetics. And she's carrying it on her back as she's walking through the airport in Uganda.
Starting point is 01:17:00 What? Hold on. I got to see this. Show me the picture. That cannot be real news there's no fucking way that's real that's a big ass baby dude baby that's a that's like a fucking five foot human that's like a human like they got a little greedy there man like that's what it was there ain't no smuggling going on there no holy. Holy shit. Dude, but we've all tried to smuggle something.
Starting point is 01:17:26 Like, I know you got a story. Like, you try to smuggle dicks into your butt? No. I'm pretty open about that. He's trying to smuggle his own grapes. But come on. You guys got any stories about trying to smuggle shit? Fucking, you know, when you were younger, smuggle some alcohol in the movie theaters

What the fuck are you talking about the cops check my fucking dude whenever because you got to go to and i mean it's sad where we're at in society you got to go to the fucking movie theaters they have cops there you know and they got to check your personal shit but i i feel i do feel gangster because i'll take my flask and like slide it down my side you know shove it up your ass we used to do that when i was in fucking college my buddy rob who i'm still buddies with on instagram we used to do that when I was in fucking college. My buddy Rob, who I'm still buddies with on Instagram,
Starting point is 01:18:06 we used to date a couple of the girls on the volleyball team, as you know, because you're my brother. But, dude, they didn't sell alcohol to watch a volleyball game. I'm sorry, you can't watch a fucking women's volleyball game 47 times a year without drinking at some of them. It's just reality. So, dude, we would end up getting fucked up sitting on the end of the volleyball court um on the short end you know and i know that's the end you're typically on
Starting point is 01:18:31 yeah always yeah it's fine so we're sitting there and dude i remember i don't know how we i think we smuggled like flasks like in between our balls yeah like like you know like down in between like our taint area whatever the fuck you call that area that's deep flasks like in between our balls yeah like like you know like down in between like our taint area whatever the fuck you call that area that's deep bro yeah but like in our underwear like i think we both had a flask or whatever we go in the bathroom put it in the soda and fucking dude i'll never forget it because the coach who's there and i think she's still there um coach stokes i don't know if she's still there or not but she like In the middle of the mat We're over there fucked up dude And we
Starting point is 01:19:06 She's like She looks at me And she goes I can smell you I'm like holy shit dude We must be really bad Well maybe it was that Famunda cheese you're nuts
Starting point is 01:19:17 No dude Fucking on that bottle Every time he brings A flask up to his mouth She was talking about that She was talking about the alcohol We were getting pretty vocal too I mean it was We're like the two guys.
Starting point is 01:19:26 Cat calling the girls. Seven people? No, there's like 100 people in the whole fucking place. Yeah. And we're the two guys sitting by themselves in the empty stands, getting wasted, looking at all the girls, and just fucking. I mean, listen. We forgot where the fucking words.
Starting point is 01:19:40 There's a lot of fucking stories that start with that similar scene. What's that? There's two guys sitting there. They're really fucking wasted and looking at a lot of fucking stories that start with that similar scene. What's that? There's two guys sitting there. They're really fucking wasted and looking at a lot of fucking chicks. Yeah, pretty much every other story I've got. If I wrote a book, chapters 1 through 15 would start like this. No, and then you just have like an appendix for each insert, every story at the end.
Starting point is 01:19:59 How it follows. Look, every story I'm about to tell you, it goes like this. All right? I started fucking drinking. After a couple hours, I had drank quite a bit. Then what happened was. See what happened was. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:13 And then fill in the rest. Yeah. Like, that's why I don't. That's why, like, even though I know alcohol is, like, a bad thing, I don't, like, tell people not to fucking drink. You know? Like, I'm not. You know how people get about alcohol like you should never fucking drink or you should do this yeah dude those are the motherfuckers that
Starting point is 01:20:29 have problems with it you know what i'm saying like if you enjoy alcohol like a regular human it would produce some good stories for sure and maybe one day you could turn those stories into a fucking podcast but whenever you drink so much that you get arrested consistently, maybe we'll give you a pass on one time, but it's a consistent issue. Your wife leaves you. You're beating your kids. You're doing bad shit. It's probably time to look in the mirror. Yeah, say maybe me and this alcohol don't go very well together.
Starting point is 01:21:02 Speaking of the one time, I i mean i've only been arrested one time you've been arrested no you've tried to get me arrested i'll tell you i got your fucking ass out of do you know why do you know why i didn't get why i haven't been arrested yeah probably because i knew the cop no because i'm a better salesman than you that's why it's true jim said you're equal did he yep and that that's interesting yeah it's interesting because i'm like at least 10 to 1 oh there's a reason i gotta go negotiate all the deals no it's because i don't want to fucking i don't want to do it i want you to learn to be better sold but do you remember that time we were in Springfield I know you do because you set this
Starting point is 01:21:45 up yeah do you remember the time at Union Road in Lindbergh I do I'm not telling that story I got that one on video so this time we're at a work event a CrossFit event fitting this thing and I went out it's actually when you used to work yeah I went out I think it was it was a holiday weekend I think it was like Halloween or something. It was homecoming for the college campus that was around the area. I'm like, fucking, nobody else wants to go out. I'll go out by myself. I knew a couple people in the area, so I went to a house party. Got fucked up.
Starting point is 01:22:14 Okay, so to backtrack this, this is how every story starts. This is what his book is like. Oh, my God, dude. How did you not fucking realize what the fuck you were saying i'm okay with it i mean literally this bro and and and the number two for you starts the exact same fucking way by the way nobody would go out with me so i went out by myself i walked i got fucking wasted that's what happened yeah so i wake up my phone's dead yeah i gotta be at this fucking event at a certain time and i don't know what fucking time it is oh and by the way i could smell you oh man i could smell me
Starting point is 01:22:50 so i walk out of the house i have no idea where the fuck i'm at because i took a cab there the night before and i'm i know that springfield is kind of like a grid system so i'm like okay i'm just gonna walk this general direction and hopefully I end up where I'm supposed to be. Let's paint this picture, though. Go ahead. You are 30. Yay? Yeah, I was right now or when it happened.
Starting point is 01:23:13 When it happened. Yeah, I was probably like 29 or 30. And they are college students. I don't discriminate. So Tyler was in a college house party, and they're like, who's the random old guy? Because, dude, when you're in college, 30 is an old motherfucker. Bro, those people in college right now to me, they look 12. Dude, I can't.
Starting point is 01:23:38 I mean, but somehow I think I'm still the same age. That's the truth. What the fuck? I think I'm just as cool, just as fast. Bro, I look at these young motherfuckers in the back, and I'm like, yeah, I'm just like them, dude. I'm just like them. I'm just older, but I'm not older. I think like them, and I'm like,
Starting point is 01:23:52 I'm really confused on what's going on when I look in the mirror because my shit is turning gray, and I'm like, like, it's really weird. It's a weird thing. No, it's not, because, I mean, I think it's safe to say that you definitely are delusional. About what? Well, about, I mean, maybe everything.
Starting point is 01:24:07 Oh, maybe. You said you were a better salesperson. Well, I'm open to your opinion. You said you're a better salesperson than me, and now you think you're like them. Well, okay. That's a fair assessment. We're starting to see the delusion come out. Sure.
Starting point is 01:24:20 That's fine. I'll take it. Continue on, Tyler. Whenever I'll think about it and process what you say say and I'll come back and answer in a minute. Can we go to dinner together? So I finally make it to the event and I'm in the clothes that was the night before. And I start working. Right.
Starting point is 01:24:35 And about a half an hour into the day, a cop comes to our booth. He says, hey, can I talk to you for a second? Like, yeah, sure. So go out in the lobby of this convention center and he's like what were you doing last night i was like i went out had some fun why he goes well there's a video of you and i'm like okay what was i doing and he goes well you exposed yourself to some younger underage girls. And I'm like, no, that didn't happen. Like, I didn't black out until, like, I hit the couch.
Starting point is 01:25:08 I know that for a fact. I'm fairly certain that didn't happen. Yeah. And he's like, yeah, it was in an alleyway. And you were taking a leak. And you turned around after these girls yelled at you. And you exposed yourself. And it's on video.
Starting point is 01:25:22 And I'm like, let me see the video. He goes, no, you're going to have to come down to the station. I'm like, well, you don't have the video with you. He goes, no, you're just going to have to come down. I'm like, what the fuck is going on? Like that did not happen at all. And were you fucking scared? Dude, I was getting nervous.
Starting point is 01:25:36 He was nervous. You were fucking nervous, dude. I'm not going to lie. But at the same time, I was so skeptical of this. I'm like, you got the wrong fucking dude. He did. But he was at first he had to train. So I'm watching.
Starting point is 01:25:44 I set the cop up to go fucking deploy the story on him or you just ruined the story no he didn't tell he was gonna tell how the fucking tell the rest of the story there dude so i'm trying to remember everything that happened that night before and he's still like he's like all right well do you need to tell somebody that you're gonna come you know to the station with me and i'm like there's no fucking way And then all of a sudden I just, I, I hear this laugh that is very familiar to me and it's fucking Sal with like five of the other guys. They're videotaping me from above. And wait, we got this on video.
Starting point is 01:26:17 I got it somewhere. Oh dude, I got to see this shit. Yeah, dude. It was, we got to post this on my fucking Instagram. I was a little nervous. Oh no, I got another one of Tyler on video too too hey motherfucker i got a couple you be careful i'm just saying i think we all got we all got a few stories yeah along the black box there's a fucking code right here but we're definitely gonna share your shit oh man so dude what who was the dumb
Starting point is 01:26:44 motherfucker this lady the lady from uganda who tried to yeah she's dumb that's that's the bottom line because if we got to put this picture in the fucking show notes dude like this is a full-size human dummy uh made of lipstick apparently and she's not even having it in a back it's not even in like a backpack she's like giving a piggyback ride through the fucking airport it's in a onesie yeah but like an adult onesie no but she's holding it like it's a piggyback like it's got his arms around it doesn't even have a head there's no head i couldn't there was the head no i'm looking at it dude i couldn't even tell there was the head because it was so big i was like no there's literally a plastic bag hanging out of the neck hole where the head should
Starting point is 01:27:27 be. What the fuck, dude? That's why she's the dumbest motherfucker of all the land today. The Rick James cocaine's a hell of a drug. Yeah. Where do we send me? And why is she smuggling cosmetics? I don't know.
Starting point is 01:27:40 Where do we? What do I not know? I don't know. Maybe. What do I not know, Sal? I don't know. You know the cosmetic world. What do I not know? I don't know. Maybe they're just really good cosmetics. I don't know. You know the cosmetic world. What do I not know?
Starting point is 01:27:48 They have some illegal ingredients in them that are banned from that country. So maybe that on the black market. Oh, yeah. It could be like some crazy shit, like rhinoceros something. You know what I'm saying? That's what fucking poachers do, man. And then they make products that are completely fucking useless out of animal parts and say it's this magic shit and that fucking these animals go extinct because of that.
Starting point is 01:28:09 That just reminds me, dude, one of the saddest things that humans do is they fucking de-fin sharks for a soup. And they will literally just... I've never seen that. Dude, are you serious? That's fucking... Dude, they will cut it off at the boat when they catch it
Starting point is 01:28:23 and they'll just let it drown. No way. It's fucking horrible. I think it's extremely popular in cut it off at the boat when they catch it and they'll just let it drown no way it's fucking horrible it's i think it's extremely popular in japan yeah fuck it's hard to watch actually humans are pieces of shit well you realize that but i mean but think about that like go back to raising your kids of culture that's how you're raising that's normal that's how you get your suit like that's what you do i get it dude i mean like dude that's like the hunting thing right like i understand why people like, deer hunting and eat the deer. I do not agree with nor understand, like, the trophy hunting of, like, Africa animals. And with deer, you're also. Like, I don't.
Starting point is 01:28:54 That's fucking pointless. That's population control, too. Maybe. I don't understand the whole thing. Like, I know that it's the biggest conservation and all this shit. I'm saying from a moral standpoint, if you're just shooting something so that you can put it on your wall, I respect life to a point where I don't think that's a good reason to kill things. Now, if you're going to shoot a deer and you're going to make fucking meat and you're going to consume it, I understand the whole process. I respect that. I actually think that's pretty cool because there's still people out there that want to live on the land,
Starting point is 01:29:28 help conserve the animals. And what people don't realize is that like all the firearms and the bows and arrows and all these things, they get taxed so that the conservation is taken care of these animals. So hunters actually pay for the conservation here in america now i respect that i think that's fucking great and you know what it's hell a lot more humane than a lot of the fucking way that these these animals are processed in farms so you know and i'm not a vegan i'm not fucking pro vegan or anything like that i'm just saying like there's a big difference between just killing shit to kill shit and killing shit you know because it's going to provide. Yeah. And not to mention, like when you take deer, for instance, like that's literally done out of population control and it saves lives.
Starting point is 01:30:13 Was that all correct? I mean, you're a hunter, right? Here, come over here and get on the mic. So I got my buddy Alex here who is an avid hunter and he's kind of sitting on the side, part of our security detail. I mean, is that all correct, what you said? It's pretty close, yeah. The way Missouri is, actually, there's a lot of money that goes into – do I need to move? No, just get close. Okay. So, yeah, that's pretty close.
Starting point is 01:30:35 Actually, a lot of money that Missouri brings in goes to the conservation department to help provide for that and the conservation of animals. What you brought up earlier about that saving lives, that's actually coming from overpopulation issues that you'll find. So for instance, you bringing up deer earlier, if the deer population gets too big, then they're going to eat food that the rabbits will no longer be able to eat. And now you have an issue with losing the amount of rabbits. So being able to maintain that level at a safe level for everybody
Starting point is 01:31:06 is one of the best ways to go plus you got more deer jumping across the street and fucking running in the cars but it comes from hunters yes that's where that whole thing comes from is being able to do that and that's a big part of being able to maintain that baseline yeah yeah well there you go man thanks brother that's i mean this is a guy who lives this stuff so while i don't hunt you know i'll take some deer saucers bro yeah i mean be careful last time i put that on my instagram story man we had about 400 pounds show up here to hq oh yeah don't everybody don't send me listen guys for real like you don't have to send me anything like people say if you want to send something send a letter or card or something Like I get so many like these gifts from people
Starting point is 01:31:48 They want to show appreciation especially for the mfco project guys That's not why I do this man. Like if you want to don't spend your money on me You know send a if you want to send something send a letter a card. It's much more meaningful It's just I just want to say that because we get too much shit here. That's the truth. Um, but yeah, man, that's the show guys. Uh, look, we talked about a lot of different things. If you know, you learn something, if you got some laughs out of it, if it was something that made you think maybe a little bit differently, you think people could learn from, uh, spread the word, help us grow the show. You know, this is something that we do. Uh, And there's a point to this show, a bigger picture to this show. And the big picture really area, man,
Starting point is 01:32:29 is like to help bring some realistic viewpoints and thoughts into the forefront, because we live in a society right now that isn't very open to hearing other people's points of view. And it causes a lot of division and a lot of problems for all of us. And I think the world would be a better place if all of us could take a minute to understand where their other side's coming from. So love you guys. I appreciate you guys share, leave a review, pay the fee, and we'll see you next time.
