Welcome to Sad Boys, a podcast about feelings and other things also. I'm Jarvis. I'm Jordan. Who's that? And we're joined by a very special guest, Baby No Moolah. Baby No Money, the Gen Z Eminem. Okay, so when I recorded that bar, guys, I was like, God dang it. I don't know how to delete this. I was like, this is so stupid. But I was like, you know what? Maybe let's just see, whatever. Because every time I show anyone, they'll be like, yo, that bar, that bar's got to go.

So it's like polarizing. Right. So it was like, all right, we'll keep it. And then little do you know, I just make all the content about getting fake DMs from Eminem. And then here you go. Works. That is like a real, that's like a strike with the katana against the blade but at least expected yeah exactly dude eminem is such a talented rapper

but i cannot believe my 11 year old ass was rapping about killing my wife you know what i mean i had no idea like rapping along i was like i had no clue what i was saying. I listened to Fack the other day. No! Why what the fuck was this? I was just... He was saying some crazy shit. It turns into an audio drama about a gerbil in the worst way possible. I was just doing phonetically. I didn't know what I was saying, literally.

I just used to do it so much as a kid that it was locked in my brain. It's like listening to music in Japanese. I don't know what I'm saying, but it sounds so good. I know how the Fullmetal Alchemist theme goes, but I don't know what i'm saying it sounds so good i know the format alchemist theme goes but i don't know what i'm saying yeah see it's interesting i like everyone kind of agrees that he's one of the best ever to live i think so it's like i don't know why not just say his name in a song because there's so many people that fuck with him so i mean i i see

no problem with it i will say his recent song was just like like why don't you just be a little bit more creative bro be honest like I know I don't know it's tough it stings a little bit of like he's made a lot of and again he's allowed to do this

because his library beforehand is just like it doesn't matter it doesn't matter who gives a shit it doesn't matter he has kids right yeah he has kids

he has kids yeah and his kids are like as old as us now that's crazy yeah cause he's like young as hell, basically. Fresh out the womb, actually. I freaking love Tic-Toc, Tink-Tong.

Oh, you were so close. Give it one more go. Tilt-Oct. I'm watching those. Landscape. Oh, the Tim Tams? The Tim Tams. Quibi.

Vertical only. I'm watching Quibi originals. How are you doing, man? I'm good, man. I'm watching Quibi Originals. How are you doing, man? I'm good, man. I'm chilling. Life's good. I just ate this croissant that you guys gave me, which I really didn't need

because I ate four RX bars right before. That's dessert. I don't feel very good right now, but it's all good. Four RX bars is crazy work, dude. That's a little chewy. But I appreciate the rationale you gave was you just needed to get rid of the food in your house.

Yeah. And I think that most people wouldn't be as resourceful. They'd probably just say, I'll put these in the bag and get another meal somewhere. Yeah. So you would think that, but I don't know. I intermittently fast. So I was just like real hungry at that moment. Right.

Because it was like 12 hits 12. And I'm like, ah. Yeah. The demon comes out of me. Yeah. I need a prescription. It's somewhere between four and eight rx bars in the morning 12 hour fast evening comes around 12 additional rx bars like

hulk hogan's like drinking six like uh you know how rx bars have the the ingredients on them oh yeah it's like two egg one egg two dates three almonds one huge egg to be fair though it's like it's also when i'm eating those things i'm like i know these are really clean i don't know like the quality of the egg i'm sure the almonds and dates are fine because it's like but like egg quality probably important but who fucking i mean you were saying right before we started recording like you're trying you travel at shit time not just for tour stuff but for work. And have you figured out a way to maintain health? Because I'm worried about, I'm doing a small trip in a couple weeks, and I'm already worried about fucking up my routines.

Well, yeah, your routine is going to get fucked up no matter what. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Now, originally I wasn't making enough money to get a nice hotel with a gym and shit. Now I get a nice hotel with a gym, and. Now I get a nice hotel with a gym. And then on all my riders, I have RX bars or just healthy things. Yeah. So I just eat RX bars. You're supposed to, dude.

No, I wish. Hey, yo, RX, give me a fucking sponsor. Yo, for real. I DM them. I was like, yo, guys, I eat your shit literally every day. Please. Yeah. Please.

Please. And they were like, ha ha. Nice. I'm like, I've also been wearing asics every single day for the past five years in seven years nothing i've dm'd them gotten emails back be like oh we love you thanks so much and they ghosted you being coy or like you're like maybe we could maybe oh no i'll be straight out i would like i wear your shit every day every single performance i've ever done ever that's such i wear your shoes great free advertising and then they're just like

nah yeah it's crazy i don't know i just need to get bigger i guess i don't know yeah eventually but then you'll you'll do like a nike deal and you'll be like fuck you asics i was thinking about like publicly ousting them and just being like yo i've been wearing this shit for like this long i've been shouting them out all these songs i like tweet about it it's just like right they're just into this camera this camera goes like this is my story the asics story you type it like a dramatic recreation black and white you typing in slow motion single t animations too like the idea of like imagining you doing like like promotional posts for brands but not getting paid loving my new 2024 a6 line i remember i was in uh i was in japan and there was like a dior kind of like yeah like sign that was like welcome blah blah blah and i like posted in front of it i was like thanks for the free flights to japan dior and then a hashtag partner hashtag and then

and then the dm the the person DM me back or like whatever they're like talent person was like huh I don't know if it's still a thing but there was a time where like TikTok influencers were pretending to be sponsored to seem more legitimate here's all these brands that I've worked with they're not going to call them and check you know whenever I go on a website and they're like as seen on cnn and like the view and i'm like were you i'm not gonna go like see oh no my girlfriend actually lives in europe oh okay yeah that's why she doesn't exist oh come on you've been you've met her because now look kudela you don't even know her name. John. John. Fuck. God damn it.

No. No, you just, if you, dude, look, sidebar. You just owned it. If you, her name could be John, that's fine. No, it's covered. No one has figured it out yet. Just don't say fuck after you say her name. Like they think you messed up.

No one noticed I did it. Okay. Okay. Agree to disagree. Oh yeah. But wait, you said you did fasting? Yeah. How are you doing that? So I do 8 p.m. to 12 noon the next day.

So I just eat a bunch basically until 8. Sometimes I'll stop eating at 6 and then I'll just do 6 hours of eating. So I'll do like an 18-hour fast. Every day? For the most part. Yeah. Some days like if I'm out with a very attractive piece of pizza, no, I will say though,

if you have this like regimen going on in this, like kind of organization in your life, as far as like dietary organization, when you see this, these foods, you're like, nah, like I know I'm going to be feeling better if I don't do this. that's so i love that because i need to figure out some stuff with with my relationship

with food but you know that's the topic for another thing but i love hearing it also makes real good when you eat the first time in the day like real the best rx bar yeah the first rx bar in the day that shit hitting two real different you're like sometimes like 11 20 i'm like fuck don't piss me off and like my team's like texting me to do shit like fuck off i need my head the president wants to meet with you tell him to fuck off does he have blueberries no that would actually be sick oh man your writer is one rx bar it's one rx bar per show i have no fee i have to mention this no fee free no payment required we had uh 24k golden on the show and he told us what he puts on his rider and i have not stopped thinking i think i've thought about it once a day ever since he puts uh calvin klein

underwear really on his rider and so he just has like a bunch of like just calvin klein underwear all the time like just fresh that's fire because a lot of the time like sometimes okay sometimes on tour like everything's like stinky and you're like i need new socks you throw your socks out because you're like you don't you can't wash it because yeah you could but you have to go to like a laundromat but right so you just get a new pair of socks so i mean i kind of no it makes perfect sense and i'm like damn i need that i just say i don't tour but i need that that's typically unwise i fucking love throwing socks away when it reaches that point yeah when it reaches when you're one pinky toe pops out and you're like all right man it's time it's like winning a fight yeah i'm not gonna

compromise i just noticed that the socks that i'm currently wearing have holes. So I'm trying to. Are those Muji? It's a Uniqlo. Yeah, Uniqlo. Yeah, very similar. Every time. Dude, no, I'm wearing Muji socks. Oh my God, bro.

You can't afford Uniqlo, bro? That sucks. Do you socially go by Baby No Money? Like normal conversation? No, I go by Alex. Alex. Yeah. I mean, like, baby no money like like normal yeah like alex yeah no i mean like i think the only time i don't really like being called baby no money is if like i'm actually just hanging out with people and we're not trying to do any content related organizational shit right and or and or if i'm

like usually when i start seeing a girl or something like that i'm like yo just don't call me baby because it's a little weird okay let's ease into it kind of thing that's something i've actually noticed is like it's weird because a lot of people like my fans are like baby baby baby and i'm like oh that activates my fight or flight like i'm not wait shit it's like wait i'm torqued up um you mentioned blueberries uh i i need to wait i i was just like scrolling and i saw two things that i just need you guys to see so one is um the 3d printed food uh tiktok that i sent you jacob you'll see why blueberries reminded me of it i thought it was like an activation phrase yellow 11 i must i must steal the declaration of independence man i really

thought there was like some pimple that was going to be no no no fingernails i thought it was like this has like a cream this has a very cursed color grade it look looks messed up yes it is nasty but this nothing weird is happening and nothing weird will happen should we follow mallory let's talk about misinformation the wellness industry influencers mlms views are my own i do like the views are my own in a bio because like is that is she like retweeting this no she's uh she's literally just surfacing it she's like oh okay but are you on americans who think they're being sold fake rubber and or 3d printed food tiktok look at the formatting too with the dashes i know it's the hyphens it's not what is a challenging caption not an easy read

yeah this feels like like when you try and like when you're in school and you have to pop some reading or whatever you're like the fucking shit oh man the uh stuttering over my words for sooth i went to a bar and i walked up to somebody and I told them that I thought they were very pretty but I stumbled over my words so I was like I think you're pretty and then I was just like oh okay I need to leave well well I like sound like a fucking toddler well well well do you are you ticklish oh no no fuck wrong words the wrong words came out okay wait let's watch this the internet is buzzing with outrage as stores are selling fake fruits. Shoppers have reported finding watermelons with skins that peel off like stickers and don't break easily, resembling rubber.

Ari Osborne shared a video detailing her experience with what she believed were organic blueberries from Whole Foods. When she disposed of some in the garbage disposal, she heard an unusual sound. Upon investigation, she discovered a blueberry that wouldn't break apart and appeared to be made of rubber. Go in the drain and there's a blueberry that's not breaking apart. It's not doing anything. It's what's making the noise. She expressed her frustration, wondering why. It's what's making the noise. Wait, why would you describe a piece of rubber as like it's

not doing anything it's not breaking apart instead of just like this shit is rubber also as soon as you know like that type beat behind it it's just like all right man like oh you know all the comments are for sure like make america great again we're ruining the peoples brother this is forever plastic i just can't believe like this is the type of thing that um you know you tell your southern auntie that you're going to california and she's like watch out they've got rubber avocados i'm like do they look out for the bread it's like hot it's really hot it's like our friends uh we have some friends who are from like rural georgia and they moved to california they

moved to san francisco and their family was like be safe it's very dangerous there to san francisco to tech world yeah it's like um it's like we're in everyone's care open carrying guns here in georgia it's like all right i don't think it's any more dangerous. Have you guys seen a lot of like middle America? Or like where are you guys from originally? So I'm from Florida. Okay, cool. And I went to school in Georgia.

And I think that's mostly like mostly the South for me, not so much middle America. Yeah. Went to Oklahoma one time to interview. No, to go to a retreat for an oil company, something that I didn't want to do. It was like an IT student. That's crazy. Listen, listen, listen.

The dean of my college literally came up to me and my friend and was like, hey, we're sending you to this to represent us. What? Like represent our students. So it was like a student IT leadership summit. And it happened to be hosted by ConocoPhillips, the oil company. And it was in Bartlesville, Oklahoma. You know, shout out Bartlesville. Great people there.

I didn't want to work in oil or want anything to do with oil probably in both cases with the exception of my girlfriend's from Michigan so that's like the closest to just leisure trips or whatever but I feel like all our time in the Midwest and stuff is from conferences and events and stuff I think they were like we're going to send these kids

on like a fun trip but the fun trip was to like Oklahoma have you guys ever wanted to see i don't know something nothing i haven't yeah something fly and this is like i think mean i guess to people who like live in these small towns but like for me personally it's tough if like you're talking to people and you're like oh yeah what do you like to do on the weekends like well we drive an hour to like the nearest big city and then we like have fun i mean dude you don't have to be you don't have to be mean i'll be mean dude honestly most of middle america is absolute dog

shit it's like it's like it's it's bad like so when we're on a tour bus we have to stop every so often yada yada we'll stop in like a smaller city and it's just like when you hit these like tier seven cities you're just like damn bro like there's this is no like i'm not really a city guy i come from vancouver and vancouver is more of more of like a town but like it feels like a city and it's just like still it's flat and there's nothingness and there's trucks and like it's just bad it's just like not a good time i don't know i don't know there's something about it's almost like uh you guys ever lose your like headphones for an extended period of time worse and worse yeah i just did recently and i like had no reference i like have to finish a bunch of

mixes so people were hitting me up like yo check the mixes i'm like dude i don't got my headphones man yeah i like lost my prosthetic yeah you're blasting it at the local coffee bean and tea leaf. Mixing off your MacBook speakers. My pride, I was like, my pride was too wounded to buy a new pair for a while. And then once I did, I found the old ones. You know how it is. As it happens. When you're looking for them, you can't find them.

What's wrong with me? But I took me like two, maybe three weeks by a new set. I went and I bought them. I went like, oh, thank God. My thoughts aren't with me right now. I get a break from this. That's how I feel like on extended trips in new. I'm from rural England.

I'm a hick. I'm a foreign. Where are you from? From Stroud, Gloucestershire. No, I don't know. Is it north, south? South, mid, the equivalent kind of like the Midwest-ish. Is Leeds south

yes yeah i don't know if you'd call it the north but it's north for me okay yeah because i i did uh i did reading leads uh two years ago and i just remember leads the differentiation between reading reading was like more closer to london itself and theneds was just like ketamine. I have never seen so many like people just like off their rocker and like oh dude it was a very different vibe. Leeds is like a secret well not a secret but like the vibe is a secret

university town. Yeah that place is insane and then people are like angry they're like not happy people there. You have to be there wake up every morning like oh I'm in Leeds again fuck

every morning when did you when did you start when did you move to LA moved to San Francisco originally that's where we met 2015

okay nice and then 2019 2018 yeah and then you came down to LA first and yeah

end of 2018 for new company stuff and then back in the to LA first and yeah end of 2018 for new company stuff and then back in the UK for two years during COVID back a year and a half now I've been back a while

I was thinking about that that's weird I love the UK UK's great yeah you go there often for yeah for shows

pretty often I mean I feel like just London's got that crazy energy it's Canada prime yeah Manchester and London they're yeah

they're just ready to do drugs and party like i don't know whereas like it's same with australia too australians are just insane people they're just ready to party like a bunch of bogans yeah bogans bogans i did a a shoeie once with some australians yeah i did one too and then i got like a mouth fungus because no way i use my old, what are you doing? Oh, it is the drinking out of the shoe. Yeah, it was vile. That was a mistake.

I got like mouth fungus and COVID at the exact same time. Oh, dude. It was, yeah. We're not going back to those days, but hey. We're not going back. We're living like the Victorian era. Oh, man. Or you with that average life expectancy was like 21.

Hitting his shoe at 21 back then. Oh, man. that's like oh man well you were that average life expectancy was like 21 yeah hitting his shoe at 21 back then oh man yeah just dong me like into a fucking tombstone oh lord the meters hit me wrong i ate out my only pair of shoes why'd you use your own shoe because they just didn't have shoes uh they were just chanting and i was like shit i guess yeah no that's how i i don't even remember. Makes sense, I guess that I don't remember it, but I don't know. I had to have already been like, I don't get drunk drunk, but I must have been somewhere close for someone to offer me a shoeie and be like, when in Rome. And I haven't been to Rome or Australia, so I don't know where I was. But I was with Australians.

You were at home. I was in my living room, actually. Yeah, your fugue state ran out of cups. Yeah. That thing where you run out of forks, you don't want to do the dishes yet, so you use a spoon to try and eat a steak. Dude, that happens every day. Have you ever thought, like, had the thought,

I could turn these two plastic knives into chopsticks if i really like put my mind to it all the time yeah like and i can't not that well at least i think there's probably another there's a more effective way to you start eating soup with chopsticks and you're like things just can't get any easier dude uh picking up your rx bar yeah two ladles gripped uh spoon end i yeah wow the the airpod thing reminded me of um well one the feeling of thinking that your headphones are charged and then you like put them in and you hear the and i'm like no it's like i don't know why it feels so bad that feeling like the horrors the thoughts they're coming in the worst is when you're sitting on a flight and you're getting sleepy and you have

you have noise control or noise canceling yeah and you're like you know i'll just take a nap and then it's like and you're like no no no no bro please and then there's no plugs and you're like anything about this right now what's that what's that i can't remember what canadian plug it's normal yeah we're 12 yeah damn hit us with the normal man yeah i mean i feel like you get uk's is the three prong like crazy yeah they're like like a heavyweight if this is welterweight just like three prong the worst shape there's like different voltages too right it's no one knows yeah it's it's kind of annoying because i feel like they do the same as some of asia right oh yeah there's some that are the same but then it's also like tricky because

they could be the same plug but not the same voltage so you could still like short your shit out hey why i i feel like whoever got the the uh outlet first should have been like this one we're doing everyone i think there actually is a science behind it i remember someone i was like i was in the same agreement with you i was like what the fuck why why do we decide to do this bullshit and it's just because some types of energy i think in like the general area accept energy faster or quicker so yeah there is a re there is some there is something there's like an actual reason oh here we go yeah science what do you mean energy just get out of the socket right that's what the computer is that's like that video trisha paytas uh saying that they didn't have gravity

until Isaac Newton invented it. I mean, it's kind of true. She's the best. Wiring a household building for 100... Google sucks now.

I think it's because like older, like countries that are older than the US didn't need as high voltages because they just had weaker tools.

I'm glad. Skill skill issues they said weaker people i thought for skill issues so bad now but at least it didn't just go you should try drinking battery acid or like when it was they turned on the ai thing for one day and every recommendation was like oh right here that guy yeah hannah attagirl hannah because changing over would be expensive clusterfuck there it is yeah random accidents i mean at this point it would be yeah if you're like all right let's change all the outlets in the world to the exact same one it's just going to cost billions of dollars like there's no reason not if it's not if it's ours well not if it starts here the normal country same reason america uses imperial yeah thank god man it's we needed that

yeah this is our one thing it is there are like little uh like whenever i go back to the uk there are people like oh well mr hollywood you know like tall poppy whatever but it is it's all in it's all in jest it's a bit of fun most uh most of my family is from the north so it's like a lot of like oh mr bloody oh you changed have you you've been over there too long i was once had like a just like a bottle of water and they were like oh okay mr from the future are we with a bottle of water wow interesting still water i'm pretty sure we have a portable container yeah sorry didn't know you were so fancy but they i was like one time for some reason i just had an adapter i just ended up because like my charger was sort of it plugged in they were like oh

oh a power not good enough for you no yeah i claim literally will fry my fucking hair dryer i'll start a fire and burn this place down if i can't use this converter i have been i've become death destroyer of worlds yeah okay i feel really bad about the bomb stuff that feels like i mean it's a little bit like the story of uh or the claim that uh amelia oh no sorry helen keller flew a plane oh i'm like it it's so long ago you can just make stuff up yeah i feel the same way about like uh what were you just saying before that well i'm dumb as a brick dude oh are you talking about like amelia erhart i just wouldn't she the first one that flew plane or something yeah but there's a claim helen keller supposedly gave well i don't know how

verified this is or whatever i claim that hel that Helen Keller shot her in the foot. I just have a real strong urge to say cat. That's how I feel. Helen Keller shot her in the foot. It says cat. Yeah, it's just the only thing is it's like crossed out cat. Yeah. One year after World War II ended.

Damn, dude. Wasting no time. Let's try to flee the ice ended. Damn, dude. Wasting no time. He's trying to flee the ice wall. Talk to Helen Keller. Well, when did Amelia fly a plane for the first time? Well, she was trying to be the first woman to circumnavigate a globe. That can't feel good if she does it first. Helen Keller beat.

Holy shit. It's all all right she's dead wait yeah what it was like a decade earlier what helen oh no jace allen attaboy emilia all right a girl i guess big ups yeah big ups is this a second week in a row we talked about Amelia Earhart? Yeah, just checking in. We found out that it's so sad because she had an emergency landing on an island, like some sort of remote island with her co-pilot. And they were able to survive for a while and their radios were still working and they were trying to radio for a while and their radios were still working and they were trying to like radio for help and american intelligence and like and then like random citizens like heard her cries for help over the radio and didn't think they were like legitimate because they thought that she had crash landed in the atlantic jesus and so then they found they found bones like in it okay they found they found bones on this island and for years because this one guy

said it was like a dude's bones they like didn't think it was her and then like later they found out it was no dude's bones got like so it's like it's like 20 it's like 2018 it was like they were like transvestite yeah this is capital right yeah but the um yeah in 2018 was when they found uh they confirmed that it was actually her which is kind of crazy bro i would love to do science in the past where you're just going it's a bloke yeah i can tell i feel like being like smart i feel like the the general intellect level now as a human being with all the information that we are offered every day if we if like a gen z kid on tiktok had all the information that he has now and was like 200 years in the past superman superman yeah krypton sitting under the apple tree and then

you just go it's gravity what walks up walks up hits it with the yeah it's gravity bitch yeah it's uh yeah 9.8 meters per second squared it's sitting my guy and he's like what the fuck also what language are you speaking i speak latin going to uh going here and being like okay so i don't know what this is. Like writing E equals MC squared. I feel like this is going to help. I don't know what it's for, but I really feel like. It's definitely going to do something. Also, you know, space is fucking huge.

It's so big. There's like more. It's like bigger than the whole planet. Yeah, things like Pythagoras. You just like write like A squared plus B squared equals C squared onto a board. And he's like, hold on. It's like you're in a circle of like the smartest mathematicians in the world at the time. And you walk up to the board and he's like hold on it's like you're in a you're in a circle like the smartest mathematicians in the world at the time and you walk up to the board and you're like yeah and then they're like holy fuck it's like forest seven year old kid yeah dude put me in

like the 1100s that like bullshit art they'd have on tapestry something with like the guys doing like they're all 2d with a little sword and a little red blood coming out and i go in there i draw like brandon stimpy or some shit blow them away whoa is that rick and morty that's so bad it is funny though like art movements where like um start pokemon in that era yo imagine the value of those cards yo yeah dude this is a first edition 1100 this is from 1103 dude literal wizards of the coast what did you have jordan there was something on here for you oh i need advice fellas okay because what's written on the conversation board is trouble at the dojo is what you've yeah well it's an issue dojo what you call your house yes

okay uh shayadika the dojo um so i've encountered a unique issue how long have i lived there you're right i'm i just someone has to have done this but i was just imagining a cat inside of a dojo with the caption dojo cat it's got a little karate headband dojo cat is crazy it's just like you should we should all tweet doja cat doja cat dojo cat a three-tier quote to it oh man i i i don't know this is gonna sound silly don't laugh building i live in it's they're like individual houses like a few floors but they're all identical facing one another in, it's like individual houses, like a few floors, but they're all identical facing on. They're like, it's like a half apartment, half whatever.

It's all parallel balconies. I very rarely go out there cause it's been a year and a half and I haven't gotten to know any of my neighbors. And it feels like a very strange time to introduce introduction, you know? I saw, no, it was real. This feels like it like making up a woman come out from the balcony opposite me with uh what i think was a replica katana

and along back and forth the balcony i don't know it's maybe like eight feet walked back and forth doing what, I don't know, it's maybe like eight feet, walked back and forth doing what looked like highly trained katana stances. Like back, swipe. This morning. Sheath, this morning, like three hours ago. So back and forth, never seen this before, ever. And I, I have to do something.

I cannot get- Dude, you got to get the bigger katana. I have to do that. I cannot get... Dude, you got to get the bigger katana. I have to do that. And then do your stances. Dude, literally right behind me. I think that Cam feels guts with the hat. It's just like, they just keep putting hats on him.

You just get a bigger... It's cloud stripes. Oh my God. I have a replica katana in that room. Set right next to me. No way. Ready to defend the hearth and home. You got to do it.

Right by my family crest. Dude, you keep, there's a magic card called Sword of Hearth and Home, and I'm going to get it for you. What, to hang above my katana? Yeah, yeah, yeah. To the house, House Shea Adika.

House Shea Adika. It's kind of saying house twice, I think. Jordan Goku Adika. That's my middle name. Yeah, I'm at home. I'm in my gi but i feel like if i see you do it again and you've never seen her i've never seen her in my dialogue well you couldn't see her because she was moving at the speed of sound oh it was not

like a blur because she was a shinobi my training was the first time i had to yeah i had to access the shadow realm so that was like the first time you've been out of your balcony? It's the first time I've ever, because I just threw the little slit because I wasn't playing Hades shirtless. I was doing something else.

Something cool. I don't know. And I initially just kind of saw a motion and it like glinted like what you'd see right before

your head slides off. Right, right. You're hearing like swoop, swoop, swoop, swoop, swoop. Oh my God. Yeah. You know what like Oh my God. Yeah. Um, you know what I have to do? Yeah, if I see her, I have to do

something, you know, you know, you could do you could throw fruit at her. Yeah, I'm like ninja ninja. You know that TV show or you know that game, you know that game smash from the side of the head passes out. I'm hiding all my fruit you should play you should like uh score her you should score her mood yeah yeah hold up sign or you could score it in two ways you you can start playing music. Eye of the Tiger? Yeah. MIDI?

Yeah. So good. You know what's funny is that this is so thematically linked to the Instagram ad that I saw earlier today, which Jacob is going to pull up. And this is maybe what you should wear. Oh, wait, we can't see.

It's crazy how fast Instagram can track specifically what you said. Yeah, they heard it just now and now they just heard me just add. The first wait, we can't see. It's crazy how fast Instagram can track specifically what you said. Yeah, they heard it just now and now they just heard me just act. The first thing I open my phone, free guitar. Are you out of our X-bars?

Are you just hanging out with a highly trained shinobi? Here's why my boyfriend changed all his pants for these Japanese pants. He had never ending complaints about his uncomfortable skinny. I laugh so much.

Dude, when I throw stuff away, when I throw those socks away, I make sure to slice them perfectly in half before I do so this voice is AI by the way that shit is crazy the boyfriend's like her he's dangerous I did some research on the most comfortable pants that's when I found Kadori Man a Japanese

inspired street wear brand everyone is talking that was like one very brief clip of someone with like a bow staff best pants ever oh yeah I want to watch this shit one more time That was like one very brief clip of someone with like a bow staff. Best pants ever. Oh yeah. I want to watch this one more time.

Yeah. Let me slice this. The beginning part is so sick. Here's why my boyfriend changed all his pants for this job. How do you do that? Coping him up with vans too. That's a real cool comment. What I'm hearing though is that you, your neighbor is the Kadori man boyfriend. You might be right.

Cause I have not, I've not reached that point in my study yet. Right, right. Wait, yeah, maybe I need, she can be my sensei.

Also, wouldn't it be Kadori man if it was Japanese inspired? I just, like how much do you think these brands make? Like genuinely? This is for sure like drop shipped. Yeah. It's wholesale with 10 different brand names,

right? Yeah, exactly. Like one of the fun things I like to do is reverse image search a product like this. And then you see it listed like in 10 different places with 10 different names. Japano pants. Super samurai pants. The ad with the samurai sword guy cutting the pants.

Boyfriend pants. Is this a real video of a man or is this like a like clever photoshopping to make it look like he's moving boyfriend changed all oh cause the pants certainly aren't being

cut the pants move so is that he moves completely for sure but he frame jumps so is it a do you think he is real period that's my conspiracy is that this guy doesn't fucking exist like a 75 day rant about how this guy doesn't exist no but his male pattern baldness just isn't right trust me my training tells me he's not reached the the third dan which is where you get access to abilities like that. You have to multiclass to be able to do something like that.

It doesn't have the DLC. Do you think the ancient Bushido warriors were Chuck Taylors? I feel like the one sheath, like really quick sheath thing, it's like a meme from like a, I think like an anime. I don't know what specifically anime, but I've definitely seen that. It feels like a Rurouni Kenshin type thing. He's like in front of the camera and he goes like this.

And then the guy behind him goes, catch some kanji for death or something. I would, I mean, it's actually my neighbor, actually. She was, I assume,

actually, maybe that's why I haven't seen it before. She's usually teleporting behind me. I keep turning around. Please. I gotta, no,

I gotta do something. I gotta go out. You should fight her. I would. Oh, that would be so sick. My level of training. Also, think about that.

Like, if you die for the podcast, epic. That would be pretty epic. I have discussed wanting to die in a duel. Yeah, actually, you talk about it so much.

Specifically dying, not dying in general, dying in a duel. I want to be killed. I mean, I think there's no better way to go out. I'd rather, personally, if I'm going to die in a deathbed at a hospital, I'd rather die to someone else's sword. Oh, yeah, sword for sure. I'm going to be challenging people on DMs left and right. I don't want to go out like...

I got two weeks left. Does anybody have like a musket? Please, please. Isn't it crazy that duels were a thing like as recently as like the 1700s? Yeah, or 100 years ago. Could you not? I mean, that was a cold one.

There's also like shootouts, like one-on-one like country. Yeah. That's probably still active in real good places in America. In great places that we love.'s the stage you hate no i was just i always think about hamilton i don't know how accurate the musicals depiction of alexander hamilton's death is i didn't even know he was sick oh yeah spoilers but um yeah he was born in yeah he was born in 17 like 1715 or whatever yeah he'd be

like 80 years old 17 76 80 1770 oh now i need to know jacob what was alexander hamilton born my guess is 1763 okay i'm guessing 1771. Hold on, 1769. 1776. 69 is dope. Price is right. Anybody win Price is Right rules on that one? Makes sense because he was an adult. He was born in 75

or 77. The fuck? Respect. I want to go back to the days when we could just say or. Yeah, we just didn't know. It's like, yeah, I was born in like 95 or like 97 whatever you guys like Lee was not born in 1756 Yeah, there's no record of that shit Guarantee there's Aaron Burr was down there. Yeah. Yeah. Well, let's see if we yeah, they couldn't be born in the same year Yeah, that's what they had to be a back in the day when one person was born for a year hey yo too wait check uh aaron bird do they have are they confident in that one or is that another one where they're like ish 2024 they were not fucking around aaron bird's back dude he got re-edited man he died 80 years

80 years of age back then is crazy that That is crazy. What was he doing? Oh, he was the vice president. Okay, so he was rich. That makes sense. Yeah. But even still, they would do shit like bloodletting and stuff back then where they would just be like, oh, you're sick? Let's just let out a little blood. See if that fixes it.

That's real. Being a doctor then feels like being a content creator now where you just say something kind of with authority. People are like, oh. Yeah, no, it is. We are a little bit going back to that because uh what is the truth anymore what with misinformation everywhere it's basically like the 1800s this isn't flat earth shit i shouldn't let him get back to this misinformation meme no well maybe

i mean most of the things online are pretty much misinformation yeah you know like pop crave like the the twitter account that's like that talks about like pop culture shit yeah there's there's these guys from vancouver that i know and they're called poo crave oh you know that i know yeah i go i go out with them whenever i'm home with my friends and we just get messed up just lie to you but they're yeah they're just they're just liars no but they're really good funny dudes and they're a great uh justin timberlake meme they are funny as fuck yeah hilarious people that's such a hard comedy to craft oh being actually really funny yeah that is really hard comedy and also just like because

nowadays there's a lot of like subpar comedy and it's like people just give it a pass because it's so easy it's like quick quick yeah where are we it's where it's where i'm at. Hell yeah, brother. I'm nothing but... See, that's dope. Missed permission and big mistake. Wow, that goes hard. She's beautiful. Dude, new... She kind of like cheeked up. She kind of flanked up. She is flanked.

She's got those slightly misaligned eyes that models have, you know? It looks really good in photos. Oh, yeah. That's actually my neighbor with the sword. Can I travel through the TSA with a katana? Sure you can. It's like my family's blade. I feel like there was a...

I'm trying to remember. Is this a story from my life or is this a story from the news? All right, here's the thing. Was I born in 55 or 57? 55 or 57. Someone attacked a class with a samurai sword. Whoa, whoa.

And I think that either happened in my life or on the- Wait, I think I remember this, actually. Was that an attack to maybe a naval base or a wrestling army base with a katana also? And he did very well. Wait, can you Google katana katana classroom also hold on can we start with that it's crazy maybe use private browsing too i feel like the only time i've ever actually done private browsing is to go check if my cookies fucked up my flight price with sacramento it's in california hmm that's probably my sword I thought that said, instead of where do I learn these katanas?

What if y'all were like, all right, well, yeah, we'll pull up, we'll do the podcast. And then you guys just turn the whole podcast into like a katana, like teaching session. You'd be like the number one katana master in LA. Hold on.

Bring them out. There's one shot where we're all in geese. We're just wearing kimonos actually. Just for like 30 seconds. We're just like, ha! Speaking perfect phonetic Japanese. Yeah. It would be so sick if it was like a Dragon Ball Z style like fight where we're like fighting on The ground but then it gets so fast we start

JT on the right there man great news great news. Oh man That's the face you see right before your stomach is slit open with a single strike. What a dumbass I feel i feel like he looks so good he looks so perfectly like god fucking damn it in the left photo like yeah i know he's being memed but he is looking well so he looks i think he looks good in that photo but then there was a recent thing that came out where it's like him performing and he didn't look super great no not like attractively good he looks like like so frustrated that it's like uh perfect for uh for meme ability for meme ability yeah i mean it's a real zara fashion shoot vibe like there's a very specific kind of aggressiveness to it why does some do you only get one shot at a mugshot right

why do some people just luck out that's so good i think donald trump got two tries why was he allowed to do 75 degree i do feel like mugshots for like everyone sometimes just like become like the number one photo for like for instance like rappers or something like that like mugshots or like wearing uh wearing wearing the outfit and stuff like that it's like it just looks so appealing yeah you're just reminding me of uh how that thing where like uh if it's like a black dude they'll find like the most disgusting photo or like mugshot of the person and if it's like a white dude it's like him on a jet ski like a podium at the pta it's like this this is a photo you see when the guys like killed

his entire family it's just like the dude on the jet ski it's him lifting 350 jacob saving big mistake i feel like yeah that's that's dope you should just were you recording your screen by chance okay dope yeah you should just randomly put that in just cut our audio out and be like and then you can record your own audio be like whistling whimsically yeah that's funny as hell do you guys want to okay just for a bit what if we just like for as a treat we peeked at the new tom mcdonald music video that came out oh there's a new video there's a new one jacob said jacob is our resident tom mcdonald expert okay loves him mostly for his opinions not really his music. Yeah, he has no name. Wait, this looks

really good, guys. Is this a social network, bro? Wait, let's do that. Why don't we comment before it even plays because I know it's going to be fire. Wait, okay.

There's a game that we play with Tom McDonald. How long does it take to find a comment that goes, I don't normally like rap music. Yeah. But Tom... First comment.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then the other type of comment is i'm 67 years old okay i used to put a c in front of rap music but this really speaks to me yeah i used to say it was crap music but now i'm a 78 year old wigger okay scroll down here we go 31 000 comments dude no he has real engagement and it's insane oh is. Remind me the American is a constitutional republic, not a democracy, brother. Skulls, 11 skulls, crystals. I'm 57 years old.

Isn't that crazy? Next one. I'm 54 years old. Oh, that's actually badass. I'm a 54-year-old Army vet who just happens to be an atheist. Dude, you nailed it, Tom. I'm sick of it we had fun i'm a 59 year old veteran i wish more people i was truthful as you are you may be from canada

but you are american how much of the armed service in these comments they're all saluting the whole of nato is uh can you not be 73 this year and i love tom and donald you dude you've got to get your game up. I don't see a single comment like this on your music video. I fucking suck. Yeah, dude. What the hell? You brought the soldiers home, but they burned the flag and took a knee,

leaving the homeless in the streets. That's a bar. That is a bar. Well, ladies and gentlemen, by the way, he's not the Gen Z Eminem. I am. Yeah. That's mic drop. Dude, hold on.

Enough said. Well, not until that duel you have set up with uh mgk right uv mgk his manager like uh yeah we're gonna we're gonna trade blood mgk and i would like make yeah you've got a you've got a battle the gin alpha mgk who's currently 11 yeah so you've got a good chance. A new airbender is born. I'm 63 years old. I'm really curious to see what he has and what important things he has to say. Even if they didn't say their age, I do think there's something very telling when there's so many little sentences.

The film kid, when Tom said there's going to be two people in this video, I did not think it would be him and him, but I love it. Who thinks he's him and him. Show them replies to that one. Twelve replies. Wait, yeah. Veteran truck driver

blasting this in the streets of New York. Very true law. Three people. Blue pill, red pill, black pill. Look at that. Look at that hashtag. Look at the heart in the hashtag next to it. Hog.

Hog forever. Hangover gang. Couldn't agree more. Hog forever is so agree more that's how long he goes on for okay wait does his music stream on spotify like does he do shows like does he make money he does he does make money because in his last video he said he had 30 million dollars which i do calling 30 million dollars okay well i can prove to you that is guaranteed capperoon dude it's colin capperning this is a regular can you go to his page real quick i'm gonna i can actually probably break down how much money this guy has because he's it's always you know like number one album for any like oh yeah we looked it up he like claimed that he was like

number one on like itunes so that's like an accumulation of like how many is that that's like a hundred million streams right there so that's four hundred thousand dollars and that's all streaming ever yeah right there for him yeah so four hundred thousand dollars isn't close to jacob look up four hundred thousand the number okay but wait so i you jacob just briefly glanced at it but can you guess the name of a Tom McDonald song that is maybe in his popular list? Close the, like, go to different tactics. Equality.

You're so close. You're like, do you want to guess one other than the one you know? Tribal. Or enemy. Truth hurts. Oh, you guys are so fucking close but what okay what is something about change okay cancel this if you think about okay so number one is the system oh yeah dude people so stupid white boys facts american flag american flags is an insane name for a song American flags plural it's just woke

oh that goes up clown world clown oh me versus you on the on the camera okay so this is what I'm saying okay this is what I'm saying homeslice has 486,000 streams on a song he put out eight days ago and it's only really doing decent on youtube for instance youtube the monetization on youtube and per cpm is like way lower for music i don't know maybe youtube has like this weird back-end system where it's like him talking about like bullshit political things which hypothetically might have more value because it's sending ads to people who like care about politics hypothetically uh he's getting shared externally more maybe he might be able to be making like off eight million or how many views does he have on

the video dude he just said 30 million 4.1 mil okay so 4.1 million is about four thousand dollars yeah so four thousand dollars on top of sixteen hundred dollars because that's about $4,000. Yeah. So $4,000 on top of $1,600 because that's how much 500,000 streams is. So right now he's made 5K from this music video. Depending on iTunes, I mean like iTunes typically is relative to a 10th of the amount of streams on, or like a 20th amount of streams on Spotify.

On a track. That's like. It's 4 cents to the track. That's like it's it's four cents to the so it's like every million is at four thousand dollars.

Yeah. About if it's in America and he's definitely only being streamed in America where that Canadian dollars that's like that's like the GDP

that's like that's like seventy five thousand billion dollars. These days you get sandwiched for that Biden is the president of Canada.

Yeah definitely. OK let's watch a little bit of this. Let's see if we can avoid getting claimed. We'll see what we can do. There's no way this guy is signed. You're not going to get claimed. Oh, no, he's famously independent. You're right.

He does talk about it all the time. I'm the one that you hate for making America great. And I'm the one who's trying to build back better. We ain't the same. Yeah, you're right. Is this going to be another song where he's just talking about people being offended? He doesn't say offensive stuff. No, this is red versus blue. It's hearkening back to the old machinima.

He's been doing Arby versus the chief or whatever. Yo, you know what you should do? You should do your, you know, when you were cutting out the mistake, you should just like, we should your... You know when you were cutting out the mistake? You should just like... We should play like 10 seconds of this and then it just slowly dies down and you're like... Whenever a lie occurs,

either on the podcast or on a video we're playing, we just put up misinformation. And she's like strutting down the thing. Hey, boys. Cap. All right. The funniest thing to me about this, Hey boys. Cap. Um, all right. The funniest thing to me about this,

this is like when you first learned to edit videos, this is like the first thing you do. Video editing is crazy. It's this. Then, uh, you learn how to do muzzles flashes and then a lightsaber fight. But what's so funny about this is that like, you know how they'll,

they'll never break the plane. They'll never cross over the other half. Cause this is like a very simple mask between like yeah super simple super simple so like that's what's funny is that like you could do really crazy stuff with this when you're like um like i saw someone edit maybe we'll go after this later edit uh gordon ramsey into minecraft and it's like hard and it is the best rotoscoping i've ever seen in my life really yeah yeah it's actually making huge fucking leaps right now uh and it's just like this dude who's like i spent 14 hours a day on this and i'm like yo wait actually it's so unbelievable the time wasted on things that are just so

unnecessary but so dope at the same time. It's so valid. It's like, yo, thank you for putting Ordon Ramsey in Minecraft. We needed this. It's like being a poet. It's like this matters a lot. No, that's so accurate because poetry is basically incredibly dependent on interpretation of

subjective interpretations. I saw this today. This is actually the most creative thing I've seen. What the fuck is this? Holy shit. That's nuts. Oh dear. This is fire. This person,

tortilla Delta. This is there. And they, yeah, they also edited Andrew Tate into uh, I don't know any other motherfucker alive. This person's account like this their videos are so good and they're just getting ripped by uh, big accounts and getting like millions and millions of views that they'll never see. I found their original post. This post has 2,000 likes.

The Gordon Ramsay one has 8,000 likes on their personal page. Then 50 million views on some meme page that ripped it. Shout out Tortilla Delta. Yeah. I wonder... One month ago, three months ago... Oh, okay. Their Gordon Ramsay video popped off on YouTube. well. So one month ago, three months ago. Oh, okay.

Their Gordon Ramsay video popped off on YouTube. That's sick. Yeah, that shit's incredible. Truly very, very talented. So now that's what I'm thinking about in the back of my mind when I watch Tom McDonald's editing.

What, like you're jealous or something? Oh, wait. We have to show him the God mode edit. We got to go back to God mode, Jacob. Actually, I'm about to go God mode. Yeah. If that's okay. Way too high, but it's never too late.

That's not real. He did it. I'm the one. I'm going to preach. You can reach every one of your dreams. You're saying Tommy Donald's not real. He's not making the cars float. No, no, no.

The cars are fake. Where I'm from in middle America, everyone says he's real. It's so funny how bad the lighting doesn't match the scene. It's like the world looks more real. It's the whole entire world. And doesn't match the scene. It's like... The world looks more real. It's the whole entire world and you can beat them if you just believe. They've been saying I'm Illuminati and I'm going to hell. They're desperately searching for any excuse to explain why I'm not what they can't do themselves.

That shit was Litty. Yo, I don't... Yeah, he got the edit back and he's like, Boys, we did it. We did it again, dude. We did it again dude this was did it again honestly me when i did a five minute cut down of the second afro samurai movie in college and i uh lost i encoded wrong lost the whole file and like that was i'm basically kubrick i'm basically the same guy what do you

think about it no but it is crazy though because you see that and that's like probably the highest level cgi and then you see dune and you're like dune 2 it's like what the fuck you doing like right these massive fucking corporations are just fucking shit up like you have this yeah because that was not the fact like it wasn't like the car was not even yeah no that was crazy i mean he he trained for years under uh i think your neighbor actually to figure out how to lift the cars. My neighbor, Samurai Master. Fuck, I can't stop thinking about her. She can't. She was perfect actually.

As a 65-year-old vet. I think I got what I needed and I came and I came and conquered. What if we just like two days in boot camp? Am I then a veteran? Because I'd be down to be a veteran. I mean, I'd be down to go to a boot camp but it would have to be like a because i i have a swiss citizenship so if i stay in switzerland for longer than like nine months i get like conscripted and i have to go oh shit yeah and you have to basically just go to uh military you do a year or like yeah

i think it's like a year or two or something like that but i mean like i'd be kind of down because switzerland is just like a peacekeeping company or a peacekeeping country so yeah they would never really right so if i'm like all right you know fuck it let's go get super giga healthy right right it wouldn't be a bad time that does sound like the plot of something like you have to escape switzerland before the clock runs out and you get conscripted into the army and then and then if you get conscripted then you just like go into the army and then or you spend like two weeks of play time leveling up and then you just go into the army you die immediately oh yeah but like just by tripping bashing your head oh yeah you fall on the swiss army knife the scissors part oh yeah you get a you get mouth fungus you You fucking pass away.

That's so crazy that you just... To get two diseases so quick. Well, it was... Okay, so this was right in the beginning of COVID, like 2020. This was basically one of the last shows I did. And I was in Australia. For the scamdemic. Yeah, the scamdemic. Wait, Jacob, can we take Don McDonald's face off the screen?

Are you talking about the scamdemic? Yeah, I was likeick. Wait, Jacob, can we take Tom and Tom's face off the screen? It looks like he's sleeping. Are you talking about the scam Demick? Yeah, I was like, I can't. That's funny as fuck. I'm not a fiction fan. Oh, man. The rapper's not a bigger fan. He sounds like Andrew Tate in that video for some reason.

I am the truth. I am the one. That is so crazy. Dude, you look jealous. I think it's interesting to just be able to put the blinders on and just like, because I don't know if he like really believes it or not. That's the thing is like there's, I think we talked about it a little bit last week,

but like I feel like there's such a human instinct to value authenticity, but in internet context, in reality, it is the value of authenticity has basically been completely dissolved because there is no one being truly authentic online so it's like how far do you want to push that boat out yeah well i'll just i'll just stick with my using i won't use anything else and actually come to think of it i'm asian like just i changed my mind i actually know i'll new profile picture see i do think that sometimes when i'm making let's say like content or tiktoks or stuff like that just like push my music it's always the first thought that i have that will do the best because it's just like the instinctual like exactly what i think exactly who i am what comes across the most like effective

of displaying alex is the best because i'm not trying to be anyone else whereas like him if he was probably being himself, which I don't think, I think it's an act. Like I would assume it's an act. It's so calculated. It feels expensive to keep. I just can't imagine like, you know, keeping it up. Like that's, in a weird way I'm impressed

because I don't think I've kept up any charade. Not totally. The closest I've gotten is like pretending I've seen 2001 space odyssey right being like oh the monkey oh that's me with all class like for the longest time i hadn't seen star wars and but i knew so many pop culture references that i could just pretend you see now yeah loser yeah i don't know like gotcha oh i fuck with star wars it was great huh which and or no is that the new one right it's i'm not i've not been in star wars for a long time that's I don't know if you like Star Wars. Oh, I fuck with Star Wars. Do you watch Andor?

No, is that the new one, right? I've not been in Star Wars for a long time. That's fucking great. It's just a good show. Was it good? I watched The Mandalorian. That's the last thing that I've watched. I watched maybe two episodes of The Mandalorian.

It's a little slow. But I mean, I think it's just this- That fucking volume makes the scale feel so tight to me. Yeah. More than like three people in a scene. I think it's like the- Oh, the volume's like that big orb that yeah you can't have anyone in motion for very long and yeah i think that the tone and the setting was just like the grab like why i was gravitated towards towards it because i was just like oh this is sick you know it's like yeah live in this world yeah live in the world a little bit longer yeah i think that's probably why it's so

so hard because there's so many fucking star wars fans yeah it is just i mean i recommend ando just because i was the one dragging my feet for so long and i'm i i guess i am a star wars fan because i stay abreast of everything i don't watch much of it now but i it's always in like my tiktok and stuff like i'm always kind of curious about what's going on yeah and then this new show came out and I could not be less interested in the go woke, go broke discussion, which just means there's black women in it. That's scary.

If the show robs me. One, the fact that I watched it for the first time, all the movies maybe four or five years ago. What about Lord of the Rings? I've seen it, like i haven't really like engrossed myself in it i think i need to play magic and you haven't watched lord of the rings i feel like it's relatively adjacent it is because they even did a collab oh yeah they did i bought that for my brother-in-law yeah and uh post malone uh there

was a one of one card there was like a a one man card. I saw Post buying that. Yeah. Yeah. He bought it. Two million dollars. Tried putting it on. Yeah. He tried to.

Yeah. Tore the card. It was very embarrassing. But yeah, it's, I like went to a nerdy school and I kind of like was rebelling against it a little bit because I would be like minding my own business and the people around me would be like, let's watch the extended editions editions and then it would just be on so i've seen all the movies but i feel like i didn't really pay attention i really like myself to get into it i just fucking hated reading and all of my friends loved reading i was like the jock yeah you know not like a

strong way or like being cool or anything but i was you know i played like fifa a couple times and i was like ah it's too i didn't read the hobbit when i was like 10 my aunt gave me the book and she was like you should read this and i thought it was like an education i feel like everyone read that book yeah yeah i just tell my teacher i did i just hate i just couldn't spark notes my brain just could that got me through school yeah but then i uh straight up just like i was you know when like people that annoy you tell you to watch something like ah now i just don't want to see it's like yeah it's like tarnished oh you just like the vibe of you not being able to give a fake girlfriend name is how

i felt writing every like essay in english class when i didn't read the book i'm like yeah and i know like three characters names and i And I'm like, the thing about the Scarlet Letter is that it was such a big letter and nobody liked it. Yeah, it was going to be blue. And then they said, no, Scarlet, it's cleaner.

The handmaidens were cleaning hands. What's her tail? So the handmaiden has a tail. Yeah, she has a tail because she's like a nine-tailed fox. Like Naruto. Yeah, so doing Naruto. That I know about. But actually, real quick, hard tone shift, if you're comfortable with it.

Seems like you have a good head on your shoulders, Alex. Relatively. Do you have a good support system in your life? How do you keep on top of your mental health and stuff like that especially in constant motion uh yeah i mean so like i was saying i used to own an apartment in vancouver i like sold it basically live with my parents whenever i am home i have a sister who lives my sister also is doing her phd in psychology so real support system there also she carried me through my education

and i definitely owe her big time because she like went through every paper of mine yeah um when you say a support system there do you mean like now in addition to being you know sibling and close and stuff and just naturally supportive she's also now educated in some things that can be helpful oh yeah i mean like if i have a therapist and whatnot but i also ask her opinion on things sometimes because she understands me at like a deeper level right that if i'm like hey if i'm acting like this or this person's acting like this do i have the right to be the ball so i like yeah i have a very very good support system and most of most of my friends uh that i like grew up with are still

really close in my life and some of them some of them work for me and we have like a really good working relationship yeah born and raised in vancouver yeah uh i would like to say i'm like doing like a shit ton of work on myself this year uh i met i met a lady and i've been hanging out with her a bunch and uh uh i don't know i'm just like, I didn't really, this year I told myself, I was like, I know women in my life. I need to blow my career up some more. And then next year I'm going to like buy a house, like make a rehab room.

So it's like all like super like physical rehab type shit. And like maybe develop an intimacy and have a relationship. Where's your virginity this summer yeah it would be fucking epic yeah but spring break yeah miss spring break but um no it's good i mean i'd like to say like me just not doing drugs in my in my world uh i i have a lot of people i don't know too too many musicians but there are a lot of people in my life that like just kind of lean on drugs and you're sober sober or like i'm not sober sober but it's like if the boys are like hey let's go camping and do acid i'll do that or it's like hey do you want to do like seven grams of mushrooms and sit in a

black room and figure out like some deep insecurities that you have and hash them out yeah but it's like hey do you want xanax because you're too anxious no i'm just gonna go for a walk so i'm i like i kind of stopped drinking too because on the road it's like it's too difficult and then i just like feel like dog shit you have to like really drink often to not feel bad yeah and now now i have like one cup of wine and i'm just like what's the point yeah i feel bad so that does feel like uh uh you know, it's just like getting gray hairs. We're like, but I didn't fucking, why didn't I see this?

Now we just have another one? What's going on? It's like, I just can't drink most stuff now. And I can't eat most things now. And I feel like that's when you're in motion, like you say, I'm looking for a very limited position, but like going back and forth from the uk for a few years at one point the establishing not just a like literal

physical routine but an internal routine like a well what do i like to eat what do i get when i go to the grocery store like how do i communicate what do i order like the coffee shop how do i phrase it blah blah blah and it's almost like uh every time you move apartments you reset and you have to consult the guy who used to live your apartment like how did i like i can organize a room what do i do again what's my like what's the album i'm listening to and i feel like what you're saying about it sounds like single unique experiences yeah and moderation i think is also the through line there too like not and also like to the xanax comment like if you're prescribed a drug like there's no problem with like take doctors orders but you mean like self

medicating self-medicating like leaning on stuff which is like recreational like there yeah i i don't know i love sobriety i like my homeostasis to not be edged unless it's caffeine i love cracking out on caffeine really hard and making music because i get like i know my music is kind of kind of like adderall music it's like it's like so the recent song i just made this it boy song it's like it's a it's it's basically like ukg inspired like house music uh and it's basically like UKG inspired like house music. And it's like super inspired with the bass line, like going like vah, vah, vah, vah. So it's like almost drum and bassy,

like jump up sounding. And I just made another song in that lane, in that world. And I was working with Y2K and we were like, dude, this is like nerd music. It really is. Cause it's like sound design where we're like working on making the song sound cool in every single aspect.

Sonically, like I was listening to it boy in my car on Vyvanse, not Adderall, by the way, if you know, you know, and I was like, no, this is, I've always felt like it just like scratches something like just the production and just like the musical choices. I've heard your music in people's videos and stuff. And it'll like go way harder than needs to for like the video. Like a Jay Aubrey video about like some horrible crime that was done. And then it was fucking like bag or die. He started playing and I was like, yo, what the fuck is happening right now? A lot of like for some

reason i never ever ever play the game but i'm big into rust youtube yeah and uh one of the channels i watch is one of the only ones that has music that is not either just no music hard cut or uh just like chill theme or whatever and then one guy mr mimeo uses your tracks every time oh yeah i watch another one i'm like oh okay yeah like it hypes me i i don't know music is such an interesting thing because i do get like a little energy boost from it see yeah my music is just pure out fun that's what i try to do that's how i keep it unless i'm going completely left field 180 and i'll do like a ballad right so that's super rare i have to really be in the tone and the mood um but yeah this i i don't know recently

i'm like really starting to progress perfect my craft like i would say this year i've made about 120 songs and i'm just like really figuring out what i want and it boy is kind of like i didn't really know if it was gonna do well but now it's like starting to bubble on all social media platforms and stuff like that and it's like really doing well for me but i'm just like happy because when i made that song i was like oh this song is like fire yeah and i played it live one time for the first time before it came out and i turned around my dj i was like dude we got one like this shit goes up live and uh that's kind of what i want i want my live show to just be like a mayhem basically uh so it's like me jumping on stage that feel like where you're at right now you're like satisfied with

the you feel like it reflects your like outlook on life or keeps you in a place that i mean i have a lot to say but i have nothing to say at all so that's and i'm gonna keep it that way right because i unless it's a ballad um i would say pretty much basically every breakup i have i'm like fuck it i'm all i'm doing is i'm making ballads until i make a song good enough because i'm not that good of a singer but um yeah i don't know there's just this weird pocket i think i've like figured it out i think i've figured out exactly what i want to do. Right. That's awesome. Of these next songs.

It's kind of like a mix of like, you know Justice? Oh yeah. So it's like a mix of Justice and like drum and bass and house music all in one. Nice. Where it has like that kind of like esoteric. Frenchiness. Like Frenchy, but like, you know, like the do the D-A-N-C, get ready ignite like having like having like a separate vocal that also makes it poppier and then i just go in and i say gibberish like basically i made a song recently

and it goes like you know the two four six eight who do we appreciate and then i change it to uh baby no money and then and then i'm gonna get like a bunch of kids to sing that song so and then it'll go into a beat that's similar to to it boy where it's like wow wow wow wow wow wow so basically what i do in in in rooms or when i make music is like i just go up to the mic and i say nothing right occasionally i'll be like and then I'll say like a word. And I'm like, oh, that word actually sounds perfect in that moment.

Right. And then I'll just like use the sibilance and the consonants to match. And then I'll just write lyrics that like might be good enough. Right. And then sometimes I write lyrics that are just like actually really good. And then you're like, okay, well you snapped Alex.

I said recently Funko pop that pussy like clico so you know it's for the gamers and the and the nerds but like i make nerd music yeah because i'm a fucking nerd is that like uh well in the case of like the more emotional ballady stuff is that where maybe the lyrics are written in a different context uh yeah usually i would like write the paragraph of what I would want to say to the girl. And then basically like ballads are like third person conversations with your ex-girlfriend basically or ex-boyfriend per se. That's kind of how I've written ballads before.

It's just I think about maybe some real life experiences and then I just like throw them into a song kind of thing. But yeah, a lot of the time my music is just fun and it's a blessing to make. It's so much fun. When you said you made 120 songs this year, are you like working on a bunch of different things, seeing like bringing them to completion,

like deciding is this going to just go in the can? Is this good enough to like turn into a thing because not everything needs to get released right so what i've been doing now is like i basically finish a song i'll send it to like 10 10 of my team members and uh if they all like it i'll be like cool do i like it and if i like it then i'll go back in to another session or like two sessions and be like how many hooks can I add to this song? How many extra like moronically catchy parts can I add? So the song that I was just talking about, like two, four, six, eight kind of thing,

that was like one of the first ideas I had for the song. So we put that in and then I went back for another session and then I added a hook that goes like, da-na-na-na-na-na, da-na-na-na-na-na, left, right, left, right, left, right, go. And I repeated that four times and it just sounds perfect and then i'm like okay i'm gonna go back again right and then try to add one more section maybe not using my own vocal and then the y2k wants to send it to skrillex to finish and i've never hit him up but i i think this song is like right in the lane of maybe yeah do you get any of that like you got

so many projects on the go so much like motion do you ever get that uh when a shark stops swimming it dies kind of feeling like i need to keep going if i stop i'm the inertia is gonna like really knock me out so i mean i used to have that feeling way more la la la was one of my biggest songs that came out, or is my biggest song. It came out about five years ago. And when that song came out, I wasn't like, I was prepared to have a hit

because I've been working on music for about four years, but I wasn't emotionally prepared to deal with the psychological effects of having a hit. Right. Where the expectation increases, your popularity increases, way more eyes on you. You know, just the nature of becoming a more successful act i just didn't know what was going to happen so then i tried to re-emulate and recreate uh la la la so many times but it was like one of the first times

i've ever sang in a song so it was like a very large deviation from what i'm used to what i'm good at. It sets an expectation as well for what your voice says. Yeah, exactly. It's like, oh, people now have decided what I am. So when my first video went viral, there weren't any other videos on my channel that were like that video. And so I had to figure out if I wanted to build for that

or continue going in a different direction. And it's an interesting internal battle because it's like, what do I want from it? Obviously it yeah obviously i was like shit let's go make more money let's go make more money obviously driven by the money factor but last year 2023 i just did a bunch of collaborations with a bunch of artists and it was like the the least i've ever had any benefit for my career in a full year so and now this year is like already the most benefited or the most traction i've ever had in my musical career in half a year as so maybe kind of partially the result of a slower 2023 with like highly focused no it's just because i'm doing exactly what i want

to do i see i see yeah so and for the first time i'm like i'm like validating myself i'm like fuck it nah i don't give a shit trusting your wisdom i'm just gonna do me this year and trusting exactly like what i think is right yeah and it just always works whenever you just trust yourself and you you allow yourself the space to just grow into like exactly who you are right people people will resonate with you and you'll become either more polarizing or less polarizing. But like if you have haters, that means you have people that are going to post about the hate. Right.

Yeah, and I guess like there is something to be said for letting too many cooks in the kitchen and like making something for nobody because it's like been average. All the character has been like averaged out by just like putting too many voices yeah i think generating passion is a really weird type of i don't want to say power that makes it sound insidious but like toolkit like knowing that release it let's say it's just like universally

hated but it's a ton of people talking about it yeah that i think is kind of the power that maybe motivates some rappers like we've spoken about a few minutes ago, but like, or Griff, there's a Ben Shapiro type, something like that, where it's like- He's my favorite rapper. Dude, on that Tom McDonald feature. Wait, yeah, he did a song, right? Oh, with Tommy.

With Tom McDonald. With Big T, dude. It's actually got some amazing parts, too. It's the best part. I wonder if Tom McDonald likes McDonald's. Or Tom's shoes tom mcdonald wearing tom's shoes and mcdonald's wait a minute we gotta call the guy who did the samurai sword jacob make a beat to photoshop dude i think this has been a great episode thank you so much for coming dude thanks for having me on it's also been so fucking nice in la yeah like how's vancouver uh when i went okay so i threw

a charity festival in vancouver and it was amazing but it was unfortunately pouring the whole day and we sold out we we raised like 140 000 for one story so have you guys been to vancouver one time yeah one time did you ever go downtown like where there's a ton of unhoused people $140,000 for Monster. So have you guys been to Vancouver? One time, yeah. One time for me. Did you ever go downtown like where there's a ton of unhoused people? Yeah. So the east side,

we got a really bad fentanyl problem, heroin problem. And just growing up in the city, I just noticed that no one was really trying as far as like an influencer standpoint. It was like always just like yeah whatever taxes will fund sure the safe safe injection sites and like people were really trying to prioritize like that the city was barely doing enough so i was like maybe doesn't have like

the cultural visibility yeah yeah so i was like fucking i'm just gonna only do charity festivals in vancouver from now on i brought all my friends we raised 140k ish yeah that's and yeah i was like really really happy but the whole time i was back for like 11 days it poured rain and i was like are you fucking kidding me yeah like i'm trying to do something super sick and it was outside too ah i was like i'm trying to do something super sick for the city but now you're gonna fuck me over uh but it's kind of nice that it went so well no it went well because every single person there was just like there just to have fun yeah and it was like it was one of those vibes that was it was so positive like that's so awesome it was really sick and next year i'm

planning on having like a full week where there's gonna be like maybe two concerts and then like uh activations like seminars and stuff yeah yeah really like tap the city yo dude that's so sick it's really dope so next time it'll probably be like maybe in June or some shit I'm not sure but if you guys

want to come up to Vancouver oh for sure yeah I actually need to make a trip brother sign me up I gotta check in on that city make sure everything's going okay yeah definitely shooting for Prime Men

The rap goat, rap goat dude all right we end every episode of sad boys with a particular phrase we love you and we're sorry boom have you ever um sent a flirty text to someone and then the uh in your iMessage like you get a text from somebody else like at the same second and for a split second you think you accidentally sent the flirty text to the wrong person.

I don't know how I did this because one was in WhatsApp and one was in iMessage. I somehow sent, thankfully, not a particularly dirty, more of like a sentimental like saucy-ish, like a 40% sauce level to the administrative leader of the care company I was working with. The like elderly care company. And then you know what my get out was? What was it? I don't think it worked. Wait, what was it?

Gucci girl, Gucci girl. How you doing? How you moving on? Moving on. What was it?
