I was gulping.
Not even fucking joking.
Not even fucking joking.
This fucking poop was so hot it was smoking.
Did you see foremost double kill?
No scoping.
Thanks, man.
Thank you so much for setting this one up.
We can't even make the joke this week.
Yeah, you're a good guy, man.
We need you.
You were 30 minutes late, so we can't make the joke.
I can't make the joke.
Me?
Well, it's going to be 15 minutes late.
Then you said 1.30.
Well, I figured you were going to be 1.30 anyway.
No, it would have been 115.
I just had to shower because I got fucking shit on.
You got shit on?
Not again.
Why do you mean again?
What do you mean again?
What do you mean again?
Well, I shower.
Then I got food.
Then I came back with the food.
Right.
Then you shit on yourself?
I sat down with the food.
And then literally, I'm like, sitting on my bed.
Like, I'm fucking.
nerd fucking
going through TikToks
just sat down with my food I'm like this is
I was literally hungry I was like this is about
to be so fucking good
sit down I got this
it's like chilloso
Mexican Bestro or something it's it's like
Chipole but I'm like this is about
to be so fucking good and Junior's like
rubbing against me so I
push his his butt
I'm sitting near food on my lap
his butt is this way so he's facing
this way but his butt's too close
So I'm like, just give him a little scooch.
Right when I give him the scooch, he literally like,
dude, I was hungry and never, I'm still not hungry.
Like, I'm like, I couldn't drink water.
Like, I never.
Like, I was, like, standing over my toilet.
Just like, like, I already felt like queasy because I gave blood this morning.
And I don't know, it just like makes me feel kind of weird afterwards.
But I like, get home, fucking get food.
I push his, by the way, I've never seen this in my entire fucking life.
Literally squirt shit on me.
It was like here, here.
There was some of my, like, the top of my hand.
There was like a few squirts on the bed, some squirts in the bowl of food.
And I was just like, what?
Like I already felt like kind of queasy.
Like just didn't feel that good after giving blood.
I was like, I need to get food in me.
This is about to be so good.
I had like a Gatorade and shit.
I was just ready to eat.
eat and then literally one bite in
I took a bite in like I think scrolling TikTok
or something pushes by the way
just fucking squirts on me
and I never
like I didn't even know what to say
I was just like what the fuck
Junior what the fuck as if he knows like
yeah I'm just like what the fuck
like I didn't even know this was possible
apparently I hit like
some part of his
apparently I just like gave him a chop
I like chop
this leg like
Get away
You hit the shit spot
Something
He wasn't like sick or anything
He just did a little
Don't ever hit him there again
Dude it was so gross
Never in my life has anything
Like that happened
Like I've had to pick up shit before
But it is different
When it squirts on you
Your bed your food
I had to like wipe off my bed
Fucking get some paper towels
I'm like spraying myself
with like kitchen cleaner because I don't know
I was just panicking
it was so gross and I wipe it
and as soon as I wipe it I like smell
the smeary fucking diarrhea
shit and it fucking ruined
my fucking morning
I was like this is
like that happens
and then I like clean myself a little bit
but as I cleaned myself
I was like no I need a shower
and that's when I texted you guys
I was like I'm gonna be about 15 minutes late
didn't
get off to the best start this morning.
And I don't know if I'm going to be able to recover
today. Yeah, that
sounds pretty brutal. That put
me in a place where it was like
I was hungry, no longer hungry.
Not thirsty.
Like everything just went away. I was like,
I think I have the flu now.
I don't think you have the flu,
but yeah, I get what you're saying.
Like, it's like, oh, I don't feel good now.
Like, now I, like,
when I go home, take a nap, like,
I'm fucking distraught.
That was fucking gross.
This junior still do that thing where he like, he gets,
he gets bored and just wants to attack you.
He like goes on the, yeah, yeah.
He, like, whenever I was watching Junior for that month,
he, every once in a while.
So he even did it to you?
Every once in a while, he would get,
he would go down and, like, shake his butt like this.
And that's when he knew he was ready to pounce.
Yeah.
And then he would just pounce on you.
And I'd be like, ah.
Would he, like, attack your, would it be like while you're walking or while you're,
laying down while i'm laying down uh see me it's usually like if i'm walking from my living room
to like my bed or something like that like he'll just start attacking my fucking leg and like i'll even
fight back and he'll just like sit there like sit down he squares up like he's like i don't know
what what it is about cats but they like get into that zone where it's like they kind of just want
to fight yeah but yeah he still does that he's a little shit but and then he just gets tired and
then he goes to sleep and then gets super snugly yeah and this just cuddles on me especially i've
been gone a lot more lately just spending the night at base house over in dallas um it's not
official like girlfriend and boyfriend but we're pretty much a thing i'm just like scared to ask
hopefully she doesn't see this see this but it's just like you're gonna you're gonna ask
i mean yeah i mean at this point it's pretty much like we are dating like we're definitely
exclusive
like I'm not hoeing around
she better not be hoeing around
so I mean it's pretty much
at that point
yeah you guys might see me
with a with a girlfriend soon
it's pretty much at that point
been staying the night over there
I'll drive back home
sometimes just the junior
stream workout or something
but
yeah and whenever
or since I've been gone more
whenever junior does sees me
so happy so happy
and that's what I'm thinking like
I was like I was gone all day yesterday
spent the night there
and then
came back like not this afternoon
but like at I don't know noon or something
and then was he just so excited
he just fucking squirt something like squirt shit
because it was like right
I walk in with food
fucking I popped in for like
five minutes before that
but I walk in with food he's just so fucking excited
he just shits on me I don't know
I don't know.
I don't know.
That's how that works.
I don't know.
I don't know cats very well.
It could very well be.
They just get so excited.
They shit a little.
You don't want an animal, do you?
I do want an animal.
A dog?
Yeah, I want a greyhound.
But do you, you can't have a greyhound in an apartment.
Actually, greyhounds, they're like most active years from what I've heard.
And I could just be gullible.
But they're super active years or like when they're trained for races.
but then they're given away
and then that's when they're put up for adoption.
So usually like Greyhounds are like two years old
and then they're apparently like
after they get done with the races
they just want to chill.
Really?
And so they're like super like,
they're like genuinely or generally kind of like
relaxed dogs. Apparently they're pretty good apartment dogs.
We were talking about this with hex
and like all his dogs and whatever he has experience with dogs
but I was like I really want a dog
but I just don't know if I want one in an apartment.
Not that it's cruel because it's better than living in an apartment than like a shelter, some fucking cage.
Yeah, some cage somewhere.
It's definitely better than that, but I don't know.
I just feel like the freedom of...
I mean, my days are too.
If I got a dog that I could bring to the hex quarters, then I would get a dog.
You would need a little baby dog.
But no, I don't, I can't want a puppy train.
That's the thing.
if I could get a dog that like
new sit and stay
even if it was trained in Spanish
I mean sit to say
already
like you want it trained already
I wanted like a dog that's
at least potty trained
but I don't mean
you can't just get those
I don't think
I feel like I would want
one Amazon Prime
a dog that already knows
how to sit stay and
I feel like I would want a dog
from like the very beginning
of like it just got born
all it knows is like me
would they be too attached
those dogs are very attached
yeah i've done that twice
twice with like
ex-girlfriends
yeah like i was there when they got their dog
and it's like that dog only knows two people
yeah knows her and you and then eventually
you know if it doesn't work out then you're like damn like
there goes that dog yeah
My girl's dog is kind of like, it is so insanely attached.
It's fucking nuts.
I mean, it's already sort of starting to become attached to me, even though it's only
been like a month, month and a half of like even knowing it.
But with her, it's like if I hug her, kiss her.
Yeah.
Like, hold her.
Like the dog is not really on my ass, but it just starts barking.
And it is so fucking annoying.
Yeah, it's it's so attached
Because I think that's all
She is all he's known
Like his entire life
Yeah
Will disappear for like an hour to go work out or something
Come back and it's just like
I've never seen a
A fucking dog more excited
How was the um
Trip home?
Yeah, what did?
Didn't you go?
You went home for a week
And that's my formal was here
That's why I met yeah yeah
How was the flight cast with Matt?
You didn't watch it?
I haven't watched it yet.
It's pretty good.
I mean, I think it turned into me ranting the whole time.
Like, I think the first, like, 45 minutes, and then we started talking about Halo.
But on the podcast, we, Matt thought it was going to be us three.
And, like, I think he came to my apartment, or we went and did a trivia.
Then we went to my apartment.
And then Matt Craig said he was here setting up.
So we were like, all right, let's head over there.
And even on that podcast, I was, I was, like, hung over that day.
And I was just, like, before, like, on the drive here with Matt, I was like, dude, this is going to be rough.
Because I knew it was me and him.
Yeah.
I was like, this is going to be rough.
Like, we did a trivia.
And I could tell Matt was, like, in a little mood.
Like, he was just not in his.
Yeah, not in his content bag.
Yeah.
Not at all.
Like, literally, we sat down and he was like, this is such a fucking stupid idea, like, for the trivia.
Damn.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I was like, yeah, God.
This is, this is the Matt I'm getting.
And then on the drive here, he was like, he thought it was going to be us three.
And I was like, I was like, you might have to, you're going to have to step it up on this podcast.
I do not feel like talking at all.
And he was like, what?
He was like, dude, I don't know.
He was like, Hitch doesn't here.
It's just me and you.
He's like, what?
He's like, dude, we have to cancel this.
I was like, no, man, we have to do this.
I think we canceled the week before.
We pushed that a while.
So, yeah, he got a little bamboozled with that.
I think it turned into 45 minutes of me ranting
probably about the same shit I've ranted about.
It's almost like, is this a depression episode?
I was like, yeah, that pretty much,
that's what it is whenever I start ranting.
But then you'll start talking about Halo?
A little bit.
Then they just want to turn.
Yeah.
We'll see.
Dude, Matt was so out of it yesterday
because him and Bruce were just watching,
they were watching, like, nature documentaries.
And so I come in after,
after they win and i i i dab up matt and i'm like yo congrats man he goes and he goes what what
he daps me up he goes what he was like on the win he was like what oh oh yeah good shit wait uh
thank you i was like keep watching bro i'm just trying to congratulate you that can happen on
fucking dude it's a lot those tourneys are like kind of a lot oh yeah like all like having to like
like you're fucking out of it afterwards.
Yeah.
How was your trip home though?
It was fun.
Or what did you go?
Like just the visit and hang out.
My mom went to the hospital in January.
It was like for some pretty serious shit.
And then when she got out, like I've just been kind of like peddled to the floor going ever since then.
So I was like, I haven't seen her, seen her in a long time.
So I just went home for a week.
And there's never really like a good time to go home.
You're always missing something.
things so I just planned this one out I was like yo from this day from this day I'm gone
but it was fun we got to see there's like a college football team that I used to watch growing up
and I got to see two of those games the purple team the purple this team is that them this team who is that
uh ECU any ECU fans there might be a few yeah there might be a few are they like a big
known they're like the they're like the third or fourth and the thing with north carolina is just
Pro sports aren't very big
Because like
Where I grew up is in the middle of the state
And like the Carolina
They aren't very big
They're not very big
Carolina Panthers are on like the
In Charlotte
Which is like on the other side of the state
And then that's where like the
Carolina
The basketball team the Hornets are
So like they're not
Like yeah those are the two
But
UNC
Tahr Hills
NC State
And Duke
And Wake Forest
are all in the same state.
They're like all right there.
And then ECU's on like the...
Duke's there?
Yeah, Duke and Carolina.
They're like an hour drive from each other.
Oh shit.
I didn't know that.
Yeah, like Duke, Carolina and State are like all right there.
And then Wake Forest is pretty big too.
And then Appalachian State is on the other side.
Is in the mountains.
And then ECU is like on the coast.
There's so much college to be fans of that it's like,
wonder like if there weren't those college teams we probably would like go harder for their
pro teams yeah for sure no it's it's definitely a college state no fucking wonder they're not that's why
that's why i never grew up like watching pros i don't watch like any pro sports i only watch college i
watch college i watch college i think even like back in like the scuff house days you would put on
some college shit yeah just like you're like into this like yeah i don't think you've i've ever
heard you talk about like pro sports not really i mean i'll watch i watch whatever
people are into i just don't i don't i never like felt like attached to it i think i just like the i like the
fact that in college sports like there can be like huge upsets there's like ranks and top 25 and
but in pro it's like in pro like the worst team could beat the best team and it's like not i mean it's
like it's like surprising but it's not like an upset like these everyone on that field is getting
paid everyone on that field is fucking amazing right yeah they're getting paid tens of millions of dollars
The whole field.
So that's kind of how I view it.
But yeah, we went to two of those games and the first one was, the first one was heartbreaking.
Really?
But was that?
Who was it?
These guys?
Yeah.
Or you went to two different?
Two ECU games.
No, I went to one each both Saturdays.
And we were playing like our biggest rival who is ranked 19th in the, or 13th in the nation.
And we drove all the way down.
We're down by one point because we missed.
missed an extra point.
And we're on the 20 yard line or the 30 yard line.
College.
And then we go to kick the field goal and miss it.
That would have won.
We would have beat the top 20 team.
So is everyone talking shit about the kicker?
Yeah.
So that would suck in college.
Because he has to get a class.
He has to go to class tomorrow.
That fucking sucks.
There's no way he went to class on Monday.
There's no way.
Yeah.
There's no way.
I kind of forgot about like in NFL,
you're going home to your mansion,
your wife.
kids. Right. She can
couple you. You kind of get away with it.
Yeah. But you just go back to practice the next
day and keep kicking. Back to practice.
Back to school. Dude, being
a kicker, being a kicker
because like being a kick,
I don't think there's another position like it
in sports.
Because like being a center in
basketball, like you're tall,
you've got a job
to make sure people don't, you know,
make layups and shit and then you're
supposed to score down. Like it's kind of a boring
position, but it's very much necessary
and you can make a high impact.
In soccer, like the goalie,
still, like a shutout's
a big deal. Like, if you don't
let a goal go in, that's
a big deal. I mean, in
baseball, if you play the outfield,
like you still got to hit, like,
you're still going to make a big deal like
hitting, but as a
kicker in football, you have one job.
And it's either you do what's expected
of you or
you fail miserably.
There's never there's like every once in a while you can kick you can score a game winner.
Yeah.
And that's dope like kick a game winning field goal and then and then you crowd surf on your team and all that.
That's sort of the one.
That's the one upside.
Yeah.
But if you miss that kick.
Yeah.
It really is like a it's a rough position.
This is your job.
It better be done correctly because majority of the time they're not 90% of the time.
don't need to make anything that's like not expected of them right like very rarely as a coach
especially in college ball as a coach going to be like oh it's a 55 yarder send on fucking bob
and have him kick a 55 yard like it's not doesn't really happen but usually those like 30 yard
those 30 yard kicks or like those 40 yard kicks like supposed to make those i wonder how people
do get into kicking they're all soccer players are they almost all of them are soccer players
Really?
I was a punter for a little bit when I played.
I'm pretty good at kicking.
I was a punter too.
I don't know.
Even in fucking kickball, I was kind of nice.
I was always pretty good at kicking.
But nah, if the fucking, I never kicked field goals.
But if the pressure's on,
and you fucking choke.
I can't even imagine the pressure.
I can't imagine the pressure.
And just think that guy, he's probably 19, 20.
Yeah, he's probably like 20
Yeah, well I think he's our kicker is a senior
So he was going into this year
It's like one of the top kickers in the nation too
Like really?
Like projected to go to the NFL
Damn
And then he was there any like shitty conditions
Windy?
No
No, just a perfect
It was hot
A perfect fucking day
Yeah
It was hot
Shit, poor guy
Yeah no I felt really bad
But he's done really well since then
Like yeah was that the first game
That was the first game
He played
They'd come back second game
Yeah, he played, he got a, we, he went out to kick the, uh, first field goal of the second game and got a standing ovation.
Really?
Like everyone, all the fans got on their feet and started cheering before he even kicked.
And I remember thinking like, it's very nice, like it was a very nice gesture from all the fans, but also like, what if he missed that?
Yeah, yeah.
That was, there's definitely no standing ovation after that.
Yeah, no, but he made it and, uh, he's been, he's been kicking well ever since then, but.
Yeah, I need a visit.
at home. I remember thinking, I remember thinking whenever I got into the scuff house, like, I don't
want to be like super famous or super rich. I just want to be, but one thing I do want is like,
I want to be the most notable ECU fan on the internet. Like, I want to be the most known
ECU fan. That was one of my goals. Then, guess who else started uploading videos that is
from Greenville, North Carolina, and around ECU? And does a lot of
stuff with ECU.
Who?
Just a small
YouTuber by the name
of Mr.
fucking beast.
Oh shit.
No way.
Yeah.
He's an ECU fan?
I'm assuming he is.
He doesn't like talk about it much,
but he's pretty much a machine when it comes to like social media.
Uh-huh.
So I don't know if he talks about anything other than doing work.
What the fuck were his first video?
Like,
what got him popular?
He counted to 100,000.
or was it 10,000?
I can't...
Like it's all one.
19, 11, 12, 30...
It's probably 100,000.
Yeah.
I could do 10,000.
He read the dictionary.
He counted to 100,000.
Yeah, he had to trim.
That is...
He had to trim down the video
and the video is 24 hours long.
Dude, that's...
Was it like all in one session?
Yeah.
He did a video where he listened to
God, church.
What's that song?
The Jake Paul song.
England is my favorite city, like that whole thing.
Yeah.
He listened to that on it on repeat for like, it was like 20 hours or something.
Really?
And like those are the videos he used to me.
Those are such, that's such good ideas though.
Yeah.
Because it like, that takes like no skill.
But it's just like a, it's like, wait, someone actually fucking did this.
Yeah.
Counting to a hundred thousand.
Have you ever seen the clip where he gets to the inward in the dictionary and he goes,
you guys probably think that I was gonna say it.
And then he moves on to the next one.
I didn't even...
Genius.
It's honestly genius.
Because people are gonna skip through the video to the ends
to see if he says the N-word.
Yeah, like certain...
There's probably a bunch of words in there.
People were just like...
Oh, for sure.
Like, you could piece together sentences
from Mr. Beast, which I'm sure people have
of him saying sentences.
Yeah.
Just because he's read the entire dictionary.
Damn, he read the entire dictionary?
That's such good.
That's, yeah.
I didn't...
really didn't know how he got known
or famous or whatever but that definitely
viral level things like that
I mean he he had it figured out
and that's just him by himself like in his room
just figuring this on a webcam
on his phone maybe it's so crazy
like that's like that's
like he genuinely
started like he started an entire
genre of YouTube I feel like I need to go
onto his page and like
actually watch his shit
I would actually go back and watch those type of videos
Probably not a 24 hour long one
But just reading the dictionary
Counting to 100,000
I need to go down a Mr. Beast loophole
Because doesn't you have a hundred
Million subscribers?
Yeah
Yeah
Have you see that picture that Jack tweeted
Of his wall
Of Mr. Beast's wall dog
No
What do you mean?
It is different
Is it like YouTube plaque?
wall? Dude, it's his YouTube black wall.
Dude, I still have my 100k
shit hanging in my fucking apartment.
We actually just, I looked up you.
I looked up Nick Kirchner.
We actually just got our
our TST 100,000 one,
which felt really nice.
Fuck yeah. That one felt good.
I'm going to have to scroll back a little bit
to find it, but, oh,
that's right here.
Damn, what if you in TST just, what the fuck?
his wall. This has to be a mirror.
No. Those gold ones are million
dollar ones. The diamond ones, I think,
are... Is this for like his other channels?
Yeah, you know, yeah. It's for all
of his channels. It's for Mr. Bees. It's for Mr. Bees plays.
He has... Dude, that is... That's...
That is insane.
I wonder how much a day he
makes from all of that shit.
Bro, I mean, he... Dude.
He probably has, like...
I bet you he probably has, like...
300 employees
just on all of this shit
because he
because now now like
he he has not only
Mr. Beast
but he has like his
his burger joint
and he has his
I see this shit on fucking
DoorDash when I'm ordering it
yeah
do you know how that works
they have
like it's not actually a Mr.
B's fucking spot
he just opened his first physical one
oh really in Jersey yeah
but yeah
apparently he like if a restaurant
a restaurant can like see his
ingredients. Yeah. And they're like,
oh, we could do that. And like,
they'll fucking Denny's
could make a Mr. Beastburger
and your DoorDash will go pick up the Mr. Beasburger
and fries or something like that.
That's actually crazy. That is wild.
I think he was, it might have been on Joe Rogan.
He was explaining at the Joe.
And Joe was just, like, so impressed.
He was just like, are you serious?
He's like, that is fucking amazing.
He was like one of the first people to do that, too.
And now, and now when you
go on Uber Eats, it'll say,
like if you see something and it'll say like hooties sandwiches or like um h wings or things
like that like there's there'll be like if you look there'll be like six or seven different like
hooties this or h wings or like something uh who are those people and they're all hooters all of
them all like six restaurants they look like different restaurants and it's just because more
people will be willing to buy and it costs you an extra
nothing to put a nut put to put your restaurant up there like four or five times really isn't that
no and i hop does the same thing i hop will have don't they have like casidias yes i ordered that one
time it's i hop yes i ordered there was like some weird cassidia this is some totally extra
cassidia but like i was looking on door dash at like four a m one day and i was like i need something
and i just see this cassidia place i'm like what the fuck is this and i order it and i think it came
in like the exact same boxes that I was like
this is like literally in my head
I was thinking like pretty sure this is IHop
there's no way this fucking place
actually has a physical
its own
and like I don't know if he was the first
to do that with like Beastberger
but the fact that like people are
learning other Mr.
like corporate change
Guy Fieri or some shit
if you know that is
Guy Fieri yeah he has his
like you can get his shit
oh really just like Mr. Beas
yeah
I wonder who did it first.
Unless he has his own place, but I'm sure it's just like that.
He does have his own place.
But I don't know if he also does that as well.
Yeah, I see his on there.
Never tried it.
I think COVID had a big part to play.
That is when he started it, I think.
Is Beast Burger or Guy Fier?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, that's when he started it.
But, like, that's how, like, Cece's Pizza's Pizza stayed in business.
Or, no, not Cici's Pizza, Chuckie Cheese.
Chuckie cheese, they can't do anything in COVID.
Who the fuck's getting Chuckie cheese?
No one.
That's why they rebranded their online store to be Chuck's pizza.
And now they sell their pizzas on Uber Eats as Chuck's pizza or something like that.
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Yeah.
Or it was one of the names of the other, you know, like not Chuckie, but one of the other guys.
One of the other mascots.
I don't know their fucking names.
I don't know their names.
But it was one of him, and it was his pizza.
And it's genius, because if you order it, you would never order Chucky Cheese pizza.
Yeah.
To your house.
But if you're scrolling down, DoorDash.
And there's nothing, it's either between Papa Johns or this thumbnail that looks like really good pizza.
Probably looks amazing.
Yeah.
And you get it, and it's just Chucky Cheese pizza.
I never, I never understood the, yeah, there's no way Chucky Cheese would have fucking made it, Dan.
so smart so i wonder who was there's no way mr b started that and then other people started doing
that right there's i don't know there's no way he started it but i bet you i bet you a million
dollars he started he took i mean he took that idea and ran with it and then corporations saw him
and how well he was doing and they're like oh shit we could do that he probably made it popular yeah
for sure i mean it's whoever i don't know if it was him i don't know if it was his idea
to begin with, but whoever's idea that was.
He's a smart fuck.
Dude, he's...
Or does he just have people telling him what to do?
Both.
No, yeah, no.
That's the scary part.
Yeah, that's what...
That's probably what took him from where he was.
So, like, just...
Yeah.
Exponential fucking growth rapidly in such a short amount of time.
Isn't it crazy that the guy who ran No Scope Media for Infinite?
It's the same guy who runs night media for Mr. Beast.
Reed?
Yeah.
Yeah.
One failed miserable.
and one is unbelievably successful.
Was infinite just or
Wait so was he
The head of no scope
Or was he like something in
It was also doing his own thing outside of no scope
Which was which I believe became night media
Or I believe that's what it's called
And I'm sure they were like oh you do this for Mr. Beast
Like I'm sure you know what you're doing
No because Mr. Beast wasn't popping in infinite days
Oh really?
He signed Mr. Beast while he was
on it while he was working with infinite what yeah maybe it was other people because i remember him
not bragging but like mentioning the people yeah yeah pressin plays or some shit pressin was his
preston was his golden egg and i don't even know who that is but yeah i remember here and he was
doing some other shit and so now now night media is with like and i don't know if it's all
read night media night in yeah like n i ghth i think he's with lean heart um uh uh lea and
Leonhard, Preston, Mr. Bees, Carl Jacobs, like...
Fuck, man.
Really big people.
Like, it's really, really cool shit.
I knew I should have made friends with that guy.
And he was, he was, like, always so nice to me.
I saw him, I saw him for the first time.
Like, two months ago, since the whole thing, yeah.
And I was like, look at us, man.
Because it was me, him and Jack.
Jack was talking to him.
And I was like, I went up and I was like, what's that, brother?
Like, it's been so long.
I was like, look at us.
Because we were all in it.
We were all.
Because Jack was in optic during those.
days too.
He was like,
we all made it out.
Dude.
Damn.
I remember me and,
of course,
those were my little crackhead days.
Me, Aaron,
Aaron Create were in the grocery store
and we saw Reed and it was just like,
I don't know,
it's like weird.
It's like we didn't.
Like afterwards?
Like he was always down to be nice to us,
but we were just like some like sort of like antisocial.
Oh yeah.
You know Aaron's not going to be like,
hey,
whatever.
Yeah.
Well, he was on the production side, so he had like, I guess, beef or whatever the fuck you want to, like, it was just weird sort of between them and the whole production team and read.
And I don't really know why.
I'm sure you guys had your reasons, but I sort of, I feel like I sort of just like played along with it.
And it's just like, yeah, I'm on your guy's side as well.
Like, yeah, I don't, I don't give a fuck about these.
And I remember seeing him in a grocery store.
Then he was always so nice to me, but it was just like, hey.
I mean, we were made.
But it's like, we're working with the guy.
It's just like, man.
The thing with Aaron and I is we were made to believe that a lot of the issues that were caught, that were happening during the Infinite Days were coming from Reed.
And it wasn't until damn near when he left when we realized that like it wasn't until Roger came on board when Roger was like, you know, Reed's like he's been fighting for you guys.
But like he also can't shit talk his superior.
So like it's not coming from him.
So it's and I'm sure for.
You gotta think like
For us we're like
Dude we don't want to deal with all this bullshit
And like none of us are really like popping besides Jack
And Seth
But we're like we don't want to deal with this bullshit
So imagine being Jack or imagine being Reed
It's like, Jack's like
I don't want to deal with this shit I'm playing with Ninja
Later on this afternoon
And Reed's like I can't deal with this
I'm about to sign Mr. Beast
And he's gonna be the biggest fucking
He's like in his head he's like
I'm gonna be honest I don't give a fuck
He's like
Trust me.
Just get me out of here.
Damn.
I could have made friends with him.
Fucking.
Damn.
I could have been working with Mr. Beast now.
Now, I don't even want to make fucking videos with him.
Just fucking.
I don't know.
Be in the same room.
This is like the third.
That's the thing.
That's really all.
That's, yeah.
I mean, it's kind of, it's not all it's about.
Of course, you got to, like, do the work and come up with your own shit and actually put some action into your fucking life.
but it's like it is kind of like once you start getting in those circles that's when like some
things yeah really can start to happen and this will be like the third week in a row on the podcast
where i think i was talking to matt we were yeah formal on the last podcast where i'm just at
my midlife crisis and it's just like i don't like everything's we're just talking about how everything's
boring something will happen you just get used to it so quick and it's just like nothing gives me the
video games surely don't give me like uh people always ask like what what video games are you
excited for i'm like i don't even think you know what video games are coming out i don't i don't know
what it is it's not like i think i'm fucking cool or something like i wish i could sit down and play a
video game and like genuinely like lock in yeah but it's just like i mean what's weird is it's
been like that for the past few years but like i used to take addie and once i would take addie and
once I would take out of it would just flip it would flip it would flip one a complete 180
instantly it was didn't want to play at all had no interest didn't want to watch and then once
i start taking getting in that cycle where i'm just taking every single day like all i'm watching
streams i'm watching random youtube videos all i want to do is play learn study shit is so
fucking and I'm a
I don't know I'm almost
afraid
I mean
taking all that
Addy for as long as I did because I mean
I started abusing it in like 2011
like even playing call
duty ghosts at home just for fun
like I was correct
but it was
sort of on and off
I guess a little more on but then I
drawn out there's a little break but just taking it for
that long and then stopping it's like
I think it like kind of ruined it
for me.
Like gaming.
Gaming.
But it's also like
that's it's sort of all I've
known so it's like I don't really know what
I mean I would like to be
in the industry and sort of figuring
it out with something else whether it
be and I really don't know
like I literally need to
like study the game and like what positions
are there like what is there
like whether it be like merch or
fucking different shoots
or I don't know
working with creators instead
of like being on
instead of like being on camera
working like making people
feel comfortable in an environment
you'd be good at that
you'd be good at finding
at somehow being a link between
creators and
and um
like not not like in an agent way
I'm trying to think of what I'm trying to say
like getting creators to do cool shit
like being the middleman
for that you'd be good at that
not like a
not really an agent or manager
but almost like that
but like kind of what page does but a little but less less emaily yeah less email even emaily it's
like I don't know I don't sometimes I I wish I feel like I have to watch the words I say are people
just going to shit on me there's a comment I've looked at the comments from the last podcast the other
day there was one comment that stuck out I forget what it was but it from the object I love this podcast
this podcast was amazing love seeing you guys talk
Love you, Nick, glad you shared Nick.
Then I just see one and I'm like, it just pissed me all.
I'm thinking about it for like the next two hours.
What was I going to talk about?
Oh, sometimes I wish like I could just like chill on my couch, get my laptop and just like, I don't know.
Sort of, yeah, like fucking whether it's emails or just like DMs or like figuring out this, connect this with that.
Yeah.
Kind of just figure it out instead of I don't know.
I don't know.
I guess that was my point of
This is the third week in a row
Of being in the midlife crisis
I don't know if it's midlife crisis
It's sort of midlife
Are you going to Orlando?
Yeah
I'm gonna go Monday
Or not Monday
Friday to Monday
Okay
You going?
I don't think so
I was almost thinking about bailing
But I was like I have to go
And I think I'm going to take bay
So that'll be fun
But it's like, I don't know.
I feel like this is, if it was anyone else or any other team, I'd probably be like, I don't know.
Probably not.
But since it's a Halo team, and it's the first tournament and so long.
It's been so long.
I'm like, I kind of like half to go.
The guys like really good though.
Yeah.
I really hope they fucking win.
Because there's this.
It's so funny, like all of our different teams have different clouds of judgment over their head.
Fuck, yeah.
From all the different communities.
And no other, especially in Halo, no one gives a fuck about any of the other teams.
Yeah.
Like, I mean, they're sentinose fans.
It's like, yeah, if they win, amazing.
But without, I think it's like, I mean, I'm sure it doesn't help that they're so good online that it's just like.
Yeah.
I mean, but even if that wasn't the case, it'd still be like, oh, but they're not, can't win an event.
Fucking.
There's been one event.
They've played one event and they got third.
Yeah.
And they lost the team that won.
they're like damn you can't win an event it's like well motherfuck there are no events this season was stupid
I can't believe they even like I mean it's like half of it's just online but it's like no one's truly counting these online shit
yeah I know so it's we had a we had like a month long of conversations trying to get that super
the super that the guys won at ESA the one that they just won't the one that they just no not not the
United one this past weekend but the one like two months ago or a month ago
And they won that one as well?
Yeah.
That one came with hardware.
They got a trophy.
Oh, shit.
Yeah, it was like an actual...
Came with hardware.
Actual HCS event.
So they've won the past two online.
Yeah.
All right.
We'll see.
We'll see.
There we go.
Are you playing in that Halo 3 thing?
I got a DM about it.
I didn't even open it.
But I saw the DM and it said something.
I was like, I don't even have my ticket yet.
So I don't even know if I'm for sure going.
I don't know it kind of turned into
do I really want to go I know what it's going to turn into
when I go there like it's just going to be
me watching and partying with all my Halo friends
just like do I really want to fucking do that
I've been like kind of getting on a decent schedule again
been streaming again at least a little bit
where was the last Halo event you went to though
fucking I think it was
wait no the second one wasn't the second one like Kansas City or something
so you do you go to an infant
event?
The first, I don't think, I didn't, I don't think I've gone to one when formal was playing now.
Oh, okay.
You didn't know Raleigh, did you?
Whatever the first one with Ola was, I don't remember what the hell it was.
Raleigh?
Because my brain is a literal fucking mush.
But whenever Ola was on the tournament or on the team, I went to that tournament.
I don't, I don't remember what event that was.
I can't remember events for shit.
I went home for the Raleigh one.
I can't remember if I saw you there or not.
Yeah, I don't think I was there when formal was on the team.
That's also why I feel like I got to go.
Dude, yeah, that's, that's what's, that's the only, like, I've just been traveling so damn much.
Yeah, you went to the, cod next?
Yeah, fucking, I went to, I went to, yeah, we can talk about that.
I went to Doc's event, then I came home, then I flew back to L.A.
for the
optic party
that you were there
for 45 minutes
and then I flew back home
and then I went
I went somewhere else
I can't remember
but regardless
then I flew to North Carolina
yeah you've been gone
and then I flew back here
and then I flew two days later
to L.A. again
it's like dude
I kind of want to just
yeah and then if you were to go
Orlando
like it's just
non- fucking stop
I'm definitely
nope
nothing is going to stop me
from going to worlds though
yeah
like I have to
any any
any
cod
any optic event
in the United States
because I was going to say
any world championship
on any team
but like
the guys
the Valorant team
just played in a world
championship
but that was in Istanbul
so that's a little different
yeah where is that
Turkey
yeah
I want I mean I would love to have gone
but
turkey
flying to Turkey
let me see where
turkey is
I wonder how long of a flight that would be.
How was, uh, yeah, what did you do with the Cod next event?
I saw like that video of you and I was like, wait, what the fuck?
I didn't know this was, you had like your own like little segment.
Yeah, I had a little segment for Mountain Dew, um, where, you know,
they were filming a commercial and so I did a lot of interviews with some people and that was a lot of fun.
Just being able to, being able to work an event like that is pretty cool because everyone was there.
Do you get nervous doing that?
No, not really.
They try, uh, I get nervous for super scripted questions.
There were a couple of, there were a couple of questions where I was like,
it's like we don't need to ask these questions.
Yeah.
But for other, like, and I don't think they realize,
I don't think a lot of people that like hired me for that
realized how close of friends I am with like a majority of people there.
So they were like, if you see Aiden, like, grab Aiden and ask him this.
and I'm like, I know Aiden.
I'm not going to, I'm not going to ask him something super.
Like, if you pulled up to Aden asking that, he'd be like, uh, right.
He'd be like, what the fuck?
What is wrong with you?
And I'd be like, no, like, what's up, brother?
Like, how are you doing?
Yeah.
Like, that's what it turned into, which is great.
I think it was very natural.
Were you one of the people on stream?
Or was TST was there, right?
Yeah.
Or Blake, yeah, Blake and George were there.
I saw them in the, did you guys were part of the people like playing, like on stream?
Well, yeah.
So there was 200.
Dude, there were 200 double PC setups.
Yeah, that's crazy.
That is insane.
And they were all routed through one production.
So they could switch between anyone in the building.
That's crazy.
Did you meet Nadia?
The TikTok cheater?
I didn't.
I haven't.
No, I didn't meet her.
Put it in the thumbnail.
I did not meet her.
No.
Oh, shit.
I think I saw her like once or twice.
Yeah, I don't know if she's actually cheating.
I don't.
I didn't know her very well.
or I don't know her at all, so.
Yeah.
I didn't say,
I didn't say,
I just, I don't,
literally no cod content pops up on my page at all except hers.
And I don't know how.
I don't,
I don't follow her anything,
but her,
she is all over TikTok.
Yeah.
It's,
I think that,
I don't want to give,
I mean,
I think that the biggest issue is,
are the fucking weirdos that make,
like,
videos about,
like,
just accusing people of cheating.
But if that's,
if I'm nodding.
for one i'm a female and a male dominated
sport or whatever the fuck you want to call it
i would be so hype if if i don't cheat and everyone's calling me a cheater like i'd be
like i'm the fucking man yeah no that would literally make me feel good and i think there's
a part of her that like gets off on it oh for what yeah i mean i obviously being called a
cheating bitch and all that that probably is not the best but like being called a cheater if
she is not cheating yeah it's got it's got to be one of the best feelings that's what i mean
that's such a compliment i talked to joe about all the time people thought joe was cheating for a long
time and like then he would play tournaments on console and win those two and then it's like so what do you
think now yeah but i mean it is actually i've i've seen some of the clips of like of people saying like
yo she played so bad at cod next because she wasn't on her cheater set up they reached so hard
so hard with that reaching there are some clips where i saw a clip where she was shooting at the wall
to test yeah recoil of a gun or just you know you that's your first time shooting the fucking
like you're gonna just shoot at the wall like you're not in a fucking tournament focus up ready to
jump around a corner like you're like oh what's this dude people are like oh my god she's so bad
she's shooting at the wall i'm like that shows the IQ level of people that think everyone is
cheating i just heard something the other day it was like there's like eight billion people in the
planet probably only a hundred million actually have souls and like the rest and i think those people
that make those kind of comments are like the npc non-soulish like they're not really sure if they're
real or not but it's like they are there for a purpose and it like helps sort of drive the souls
into a certain direction on planet earth regardless if nadia or swag or z leaner or joe or aden
or scum in or biffle any of these people one of the people i named might be cheating three of the
people i named might be cheating zero of the people i named might be cheating but but the bottom line is
these we don't know no one knows and these people that are making videos about it are just taking
advantage of all the dog shit cod players out there and taking advantage of their mentality and saying
you aren't bad
everyone that you watch is just cheating
so don't feel bad about it
just take all that
negative energy you have and instead of making
yourself better let's just blame
everyone else and they're making money
off of it and it's also like
yeah and it's also fucking
this Nadia girl probably
streams eight hours a day
like there should be
there shouldn't just be four
five sketchy clips that are
posted on TikTok like if
She's actually the only thing, and she might have,
I've seen something weird.
She was like,
playing live.
There are two clips from her that are the most sus shit I've ever seen.
Yeah, it is, yeah.
Is it the one where it's like a guy glitches to the left,
but her aim instantly is following him?
And then another is her like running into a room,
jumping,
shooting the corner.
When there's a dude on the other side of the wall.
I am not saying she cheats,
but those are the most suspect clips I think I've ever seen.
I mean, even
Z has a few too
But Z is like
There are so many
But when you play so much
I'm sure people can't
Imagine if Seth
Seth played war zone
consistently for a month
And in that month
People were already putting him
On live stream fails
And streamers cheats
Redits
And it's like
Because if someone's good
They're gonna get
Something weird's gonna happen
If you watch
If you watch professional Val
How many times do you see them pre-ame through a wall right at someone's head?
Yeah.
Because they play eight hours a day, nine, ten hours a day.
Yeah, even watch the tournament a little bit, but even just a little bit I watch you,
they're perfectly lined up.
Perfectly lined up.
Like perfectly as they're just strafing with the person.
And it's just like perfect timing.
Wow, they must be.
I remember talking to Mixwell.
And we were, because we were talking, there was a bunch of people back in 2016, 2015,
in CSGO that were being accused of cheating.
And, and Mixwell was like,
there's no, I don't think anyone's cheating
because sometimes I watch myself back, like on Vod's,
and I think I look suss.
Because I'll pre-ame a spot through a wall
or even try to wall bang something,
like, because he was an, he was an opera.
And like, there's the line, the outline of the enemy
is right where I aimed.
Yeah.
He's like, and that's sketchy.
But even when you're playing so much, it's like you're going to, like, try to wallbang something.
It's like you'll kind of get bored and you'll have those moments of like trying to wallbang something.
And it's just lined up so perfectly.
It looks sketch.
I think the only thing, yeah, those two clips from Nadia are kind of weird, especially, yeah, those are weird.
But I also don't watch enough wars.
I'm sure there's so many clips of so many players.
There are people that, there are for sure, they're doing the work for you.
There are at least 500 to 1,000 haters, strictly like haters that are watching her stream.
If not even didn't have haters, her stream would be a lot worse or like her numbers would be a lot worse.
And like that's the reason she got is so popular on TikTok.
It's not because of her clips.
It's because of her sus clips.
Like it's not because of her skillful clips or whatever.
It's because, I mean, like she's, she's good.
Like I've watched like she's yeah she's good
Yeah she's good
But just people hating on some of those clips
It is blown her the fuck up
There's one part where Shanice comes over
That's like the Activision rep
She comes over and says hey Nadia can we grab you for an interview
And Nadia gets up and in her mic says
They're pulling me for cheating sorry guys dog
She's so funny
Is that female me?
The amount of people that thought she was being serious
is absurd.
Like hundreds of thousands of people
started saying
oh my God Nadia just got kicked out
of Codnext for hacking.
I saw a reply on one of her TikTok
saying that. It had like 10K likes.
Dude. People are actually like believing this.
People believe that.
That Activision would fly.
First of all, Activision
this girl's big because she's accused of cheating.
That's no one's denying that.
So Activision before they invite her to the event
that you think they're going to do a sweep, right?
They're going to at least figure out
if anything sketchy's going on with her accuracy
and all that shit.
They're going to do a sweep.
It's their PCs.
And then, yeah, I'm saying even before that.
So they don't find anything.
They invite her.
It's on her.
It's on their PCs.
You think she's going to go to Internet Explorer on the fake page?
Incognito mode with thousands of cameras around.
It's all being recorded.
If I was her, I would have did that.
I would have like
Had a tab open
Dude I would have to
I would have had a tab open
A million percent
And it just says like
Hackers.com or something
And at one point
Destroy like her and Destroy are pretty good friends
And Destroy says
Oh man that's crazy
Had Nadia just got kicked out for hacking
Or he said something like that
Like joking
Very like it does not take a person
With much brain power
to know that he's joking there.
And Z-Later tweeted a selfie with her
and they're definitely leaning into it.
But I think the regardless,
I saw a comment that said whatever,
I can't remember the guy's name
who was making all these videos
like accusing everyone of hacking.
But they're like, oh, he has to be mentally unwell
or mentally unstable.
And then somebody replied and said,
said, I don't think he is, but I think he's taking advantage of everyone who is. And that's so true.
I don't think he believes 95% of the shit that he says. I don't think he believes it at all.
He will defend it till the day he dies and he says he will believe it, but he is taking advantage
of people. I mean, he's just, he's found his thing. And once you find your thing and it's working
for you, he's probably, I mean, I don't know who you're talking about or like how many views he gets,
but it's like once you sort of find that thing,
it's like,
I got,
so ridiculous,
dude,
I gotta keep doing this.
This is bringing me numbers.
So,
I think she made one TikTok.
It was like,
hey guys,
I'm live right now.
If you want to see how I get in 0.3 KD.
lobbies join now.
Like some shit like that.
But it almost made me click.
And then like all the comments are like VPN.
Like,
I don't know,
like VPN,
bitch.
I don't give a fuck if anyone VPNs.
I do not care.
I have VPNs live on stream before.
Playing what?
Playing war zone.
But it's because when I'm playing with Marcel,
and it's TST and Marcel,
and we want to use riot shields and trap people in corners,
I'm not going to play in Blake's lobbies.
Yeah.
When he's sweating his dick off four hours a day.
Like, I'm not playing in those.
Yeah.
And Marcel's like, yo, we got to play.
I got a way we can play against Hondurans.
I'm like, run that shit up.
Let's go play that.
But like, I don't care of anyone VPN.
if you're playing for money
if you're playing for money
in VPN lobbies
that's on the term in organizers
they got to figure out a way
to make it even
yeah
like that's not on the people
VPNing in my opinion
yeah that's scummy
if you're just doing it
I don't know
if you're playing a six hour kill race
4V4 and you're dropping into lobbies
that are 0.8KDs
and that's kind of what it was
someone that was what it was for the first couple years
or for the first couple like six months
and then people started figuring
out, yo, something's weird here.
It's like other people would be matching,
like other pros would be matching other pros lobbies.
And then there's one set of three Warzone kids
who are just never in any of these games
and they are just dropping bombs.
And they're dropping nukes in every lobby.
I don't know how I feel about VPN.
I'm sure the comment section probably does
and the TikTok comments would.
The thing is, is if you play on PC,
and maybe if I played on console,
it would be more fun.
If I play it on console, it would be different
because I'm sure console kids
like they can't VPN.
I mean, maybe they can.
I don't know.
But I think you can just through your router.
I don't know.
I'm pretty sure I could when I was playing Halo.
When I was playing Halo 3 in 2020
cracked off me tits, not streaming or doing anything.
I was blocking servers.
Were you?
Yeah.
I'd be like, I'm getting South Central today.
Fucking 10 ping.
Yeah, I would, but my most like,
with a router, I have no idea how a VPN
works. I think it's the same thing. I think
that's literally what that is. I don't really know
I don't know enough about it.
Yeah. I don't know. I can
confidently say she is
one million percent VPNing.
One million percent. But so
is everyone. Almost anyone
you watch is going to be
VPNing. Yeah. Because no one wants to watch
It's not fun. Fucking. No one wants to
watch you die to
two KD lobbies
over and over and over again. No one one wants
watch that.
Warzone's already in a bad state.
Like, why would you
want to watch someone dropping in Caldera
dying to a kid in a bush
a hundred times?
Yeah.
Like, I just don't...
I don't know why it, like, I just...
Maybe I'm just...
I have never understood the big, like,
issue of VPN.
If I played, and I played for fun,
and it was...
If Warzone was my job,
and I'd like to make videos, make content,
TikToks, like, I'd VPN.
but I don't know
maybe it's just because I was
maybe I'm just thinking of it wrong
like almost in a competitive fair
old school
where it's like you didn't
back in the day you didn't have a fucking choice
there was like everyone
you hit start and whatever fucking lobby you get there
and it's like that's sort of what I
I guess miss so it's like I don't like
all this VPN and also I'm jealous
that they get to display and buy lobbies
and make money and it's like
I could too
but I just I just don't fucking want to
and I'm not as good as
them. So there's probably some jealousy there.
It doesn't make the person
better. It just makes them more fun
to watch. Why is that
a big deal? If you want to watch
somebody that's competing against the best of the best,
go watch a game that has a ranked play
system. Go watch Timmy play Val. Go watch Shroud play Val.
Go watch fucking Toosh
play Apex. Like, go watch
people that, go watch games that have rank systems.
Yeah. Like, no one cares about
your lobby
in Warzone. No one
cares. Yeah. I guess
I mean, you know a lot more
worse than people than I, but I guess everyone
everyone's fucking doing it.
I mean, I'm assuming everyone
does. Why would you want to watch someone that does it?
Why would you play and not do it? I guess
at this point. Why wouldn't you do it?
Like if I see Nadia blowing up, she's
getting, and everyone comments on
her, on her lobbies and blah, blah, blah,
VPN, it's like, why would you not,
why would you sit at home and
say you are a big war zone fan
and you play yourself all the time? It's like,
wouldn't you just start doing that?
Yeah.
I would.
If I was playing war zone,
if I was playing,
there was a time where like Blake and George
wanted to switch full time to war zone.
And I was like,
I'll do it if we figure out how to VPN.
Like,
if one of you guys can figure out
how to get us into Honduran lobbies
every time,
like,
let's run that up.
Yeah, it's no fucking fun.
Because I'll,
because then I can snipe,
I can chill,
I can read chat.
Yeah.
I don't have to fucking,
all the time,
like 100% of the,
The child, snipe, yeah.
Like, you can chill and, and I, if I was, especially if I was a, if I was a, if I was a YouTuber, I mean, because there's, there's guys out there, like, Wildcat and, like, all of, like, Van Osse's squad, like, they play S&D.
And it got to a point in MW, they were making really good content, like bantering with the other team and calling each other names and, and then would try to write a shield or assassinate them.
And then it got to a point where, like, just because they're sick stacking, they would win a lot of the game.
So then it's only a matter of time before you get into games with like crackheads people that like want to play like
Yeah, they want to drop as many kills as possible and it's like now these fun jokes aren't even like
Fun anymore because we're just getting slaughtered by somebody
You trying as hard as possible and it's like that's why I mean I just think the skill based matchmaking thing is just
I don't like that if there there should be ranks and that's where I hope they don't
I mean, they're gonna fuck it up.
But in the new cod,
there better not be
this skill-based matchmaking,
this hidden MMR
or whatever the fuck
to where it's like you start going positive
in pubs, you're only gonna start matching
people that go positive in pubs.
Like that is the worst.
Beta, I was watching Seth's stream.
The skill-based,
it seems like skill-based matchmaking in
betas. It's so fucking stupid.
Dude, the betas are in.
I played two games when I got home.
I set up my PS5 and I had already played at Codnex so I like knew how to play
So I played two games I think you know just casually playing even though I'm using like try hard guns
I'm drop I'm I drop two 40s like and everyone else has like 10 kills and then ever since then bro it's like
Yeah man scuff. Scuff jumps around corners people are figuring out how to slide I've been slide camp like people are slide canceling on me
It's this turns me off so much
like seeing this
Shotsie discover the fucking slide
cancel and all they
like said how to do it
and I'm like dude
like you got a why
then slide then why then jump
I think we're just getting old man
like what the fuck
I think we're getting old
I wonder if these young kids here
and they're like they're like
they're like I'm a master
in this shit
yeah
dude this
and that was such a
I wasn't even
that into God
but I knew
sort of of like the
pomages and like I I would enjoy
seeing like Sprat play
and like shit like that
that's just like not a fucking thing anymore
like you can't like
going into these pubs
scump's old ass fucking videos
yeah but I'm like who is scump
so he's popular now
and he's just dropping like crazy numbers
and it's just the fact that that's like
impossible to fucking do anymore
it's just it doesn't
because that was such a big
that was such a big part
of the call duty
YouTube community
it's like what made
in my opinion
that's what made cod blow up
like especially on the internet
people liked
dropping in
and if you're getting shit on
you'd hope to get better
and play against them
I wonder if that's what
call duty
or if they got rid of
god it's so annoying
that they just fucking have
this hidden MMR shit
there's this skill based matchmaking
if they took
that out, I wonder what would happen.
I mean, there has to be a reason.
There has to be a reason that's in.
Like, whoever's running...
I think they're thinking they're catering to the nobs.
That's what I'm thinking.
The thing is, there's gotta be,
there's got to be, they have to have done tests
with it off and with it on.
And with it on, it probably has a higher retention rate of players
because the majority of players are nobs.
But how would they do a test?
They're just, they're, I'm saying,
there just has to be.
There has to be...
I'm sure...
Every game has MMR
because even Fall Guys,
Fall Guys has it.
Besides...
Is there?
Yeah, Jack was telling me
for solos and duos
and trios,
there's MMR.
But for quads,
there's not.
And so if you want to casually play,
you go play quads.
Yeah.
But like,
apparently the...
Whenever,
on all the speed running things
like got big on TikTok,
apparently solo lobbies
in fall guys are like competitive as hell.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's so annoying, man.
That's just how gaming is now.
Yeah.
I mean, maybe that, I don't know.
I would say maybe,
I feel like I'm at a skill to where I could,
if I grind for a little bit,
I can, like, I can hone some new blobs.
But I'm not at the skill to where, like,
if I'm playing people my skill,
it's just fucking annoying.
And it's like, I really have to put an effort
just to, like, go 30 and 25 in a pub.
Yeah.
And I'm just like that there goes my retention rate.
Exactly.
That makes me when I get off.
But yeah, I'm sure I'm sure there was something for them to figure out some way of keeping.
The noobs around.
Like, what about back in the day?
Why did it not happen back in the day?
Back in the day, I feel like there was so many more casual players and they were going into pubs.
Pubs.
Someone's dropping 70 on their head.
That's kind of, that was kind of like interesting.
I was like, dude, this guy is shitting.
That's kind of how.
That's kind of how I feel too.
Because nowadays it's like if somebody goes huge, you're like, how did they do that?
Because it couldn't be just because they're good at the game.
Yeah.
Well, now it's their cheating.
They're cheating.
They manipulated the lobby somehow.
They reverse boosted.
They VPN.
They did something.
It has nothing to do with their skill anymore.
And that's kind of like the boring part.
Anyone, the thing is, is anyone could do what Seth did in 2013 now.
Anyone.
All you have to do was reverse.
boost for six hours, then make a video, or hit record, go in and nuke a lobby.
Yeah.
And then boom, there's your gameplay.
That's all you have to do.
Yeah, all you have to do is...
You don't even have to be as good as Seth was when he was making those videos.
Just reverse boosts for six hours.
That'll be worth of it.
I mean, hey, that's how some big YouTubers got big.
But like back then, he just literally starts up a lobby, boom.
Yes.
I mean, Seth would get on...
Seth would get on play three games and boom.
That's three game plays.
But, I don't know.
Did you like the new con?
I enjoy it.
I think,
I do enjoy it.
They desperately need a dead silence in the game.
Oh, yeah.
Desperately need dead silence.
We'll see.
But other than that, it's a fairly good game.
I'll see, man.
We'll fucking see.
All right, guys.
Thank you so much for watching episode 7884.
Yeah, that was like 84, 85.
I can't.
All right, y'all.
Appreciate you all tuning in.
Until next time,
weekly, daily flycast episode,
EMA Craig,
play the motherfucking banger I made in 2017.
Cracked off me dead.
