It was crazy hosting the inner circle with the dynasty team. It was like they were back. It was being wild. I don't know if it'll come through as much in the video. But like I was sitting there and like I think I think like coming back to it, I kind of forgot like how much time I personally had spent with the four of them. Because like I was with them every weekend for two years. I miss that.

I missed that team like formal living there. That team, I didn't realize. Suss living there, crimsics living there. I didn't realize how much I missed that team. That team is so, I don't know if there will ever be a cod team like that. Speaking of that, I thought you caught the COVID. I did not catch the vid. You just felt like shit.

I had a migraine. Well, we've been doing this Diamond series, which we're trying to hit Diamond in every game. You don't even got to explain the rest. Yeah. And, uh, I got sick after. playing halo yesterday. Did you? Yeah.

So we got, it was actually a really fun series up until we started playing Valerant and then it was hell. Why? Just because Valerant's fucking try hard. Try hard. Do web fucking nerd,

newbie, fucking don't go outside. Don't go pro. Make sure to throw your viper wall here and then pop it so I can get into sight. Like that's Valoran. Even just Diamond though? Yes. Even Diamond,

even getting to Diamond, Like, if, because we only trio-kewed the whole time. So like, if we have two shitter teammates, it's... How often did that happen? Well, for the first 60 hours, I was the shitter teammate because like, Blake and George have been playing for a year. And I fucking love this shit. They love it. They love it.

They must love that series. Yeah. To just grind. That's why. You entertain chat and they can just... The TST way. I just use Blake and George. like little puzzle pieces and I'm like all right

what content can I use Blake and George for 100 hours this let's hit diamond it's stressful yeah and meanwhile they're just grinding and I'm like what's the funniest joke I could say right now but yeah it's like hard because dude Val is such a grindy game

but we eventually so this week it was my diamond rank up game four different days and we ended up losing really four different days I saw like the celebration Yeah, that was last night. Yeah. And so it got to a point where I was one rank-up game away, so I'm like, let's just do it tonight.

Let's finish it tonight. And then we'll only have one more game, and then that's it. And then we're done with the series. And then we would lose. So then I was like, well, if we play one more, then when we come back, I'm only one game away. So then we'd end up staying out until 3 a.m., 4 a.m. Sounds kind of fun, though. It gives you like a goal.

It's very, I'm telling, yesterday was very rewarding, Hitting diamond was mad. Like it was actual genuine dopamine. Yeah. That wasn't for the cameras. But it wasn't like worth it? Like I wouldn't do it again. How long did it take?

It took me 100 hours. So they've been diamond. They've been diamond. They're probably diamond two players. I had never made it past gold. We played 100 hours of valve. I guess it's like bronze, silver, gold, platinum. diamond.

Bronze. So, yeah, bronze silver gold. Then he goes, yeah, then he goes, platinum,

diamond, ascend it. Immortal. But, so they have, they've both hit Ascendant. They're probably like

Diamond three players. Oh, really? Yeah. So, like, that's how long they've been playing. And I've never made

a past gold. So, like, the first, the first 35 hours were really easy because they were just carrying.

Yeah. And then we get to, we get to, we get to, like, high gold. And now, like they're like all right now you have to play too and i'm like well so really you got probably the worst practice oh dude because like when you're at low ranks i forget what game i was

playing maybe it was like apex and like good good people would want to play with me and i was and i'd be like i don't really want to like just get carried and like achieve this high rank and then when i want to play solo i just yeah i'm not on their level i don't know as much so you probably didn't even get like good practice in your lower ranks because you're just getting fucking carried because they're dropping 35s yeah and I'm just do you know any of the agents or anything about I know like rise and I think that's it that's not is that the rocket that's raised but yeah I know raise the rocket the rocket yeah the rocket lady chick uh well yeah so I was just like I was just like in throughout the whole first hundred hour series where we like learned how to play

I woke up like 30 minutes ago When I texted you I just my alarm just went all Really? So Anyways So like When we did the first 100 hour series

Which was like a year ago Which is that's the only time I'd ever played I instant locked Like a A character that nobody uses Like no one uses Oh really His name is Yoru

And he like He's just super trolly And I love him I just love him and so I was like I'm going to do that and Blake and George were like you can't play him like if we're going to get diamond you can't play him and I'm like but I want to play him

so the first 40 hours I'm just in Salak and Yoru and they're frying and so we rank all the way up to gold and then when you get to plat like you actually have to start using like teamwork and stuff and so I had to learn that champion what could you still use that champion and like higher ranks it's funny because no

I couldn't. And then, like, I started using other, other characters and, and I started getting my, my confidence up a little bit and, like, figuring out how to shoot again. And, like, because, dude, like, the whole, like, tactical shooter style of shooting, like, CS and Val, like, I hate it. It's so trolly, dude. Not that it doesn't make sense, but it's like, my reticles on them. That's what I'm saying. Like, I don't, I never, but then you got to, like, pull down your mouse. I'll shoot this.

Or you shoot twice and move to the side and shoot twice. I never got good at it. Like, dude, just fucking gun them. Like, that's what I, watching Halo and then watching Cod, I'm just like, that's, that's so much more fun to me. Yeah. But I understand, like the, I understand the appeal of it. It's just not for me.

But, so I was figuring that, that part of the game back out. And then, like, last night, it was actually crazy how it happened. We started the stream. I, George was running the game. main POV for Val, but we were one game away. Was it ever on your POV though? Or were you like, don't fucking George, that's what a... I don't need to see my POV.

And you're just like, you die, just... Ah, dang, damn it. You got fucking turned on. So for this one, we were one game away. And... Put this shit on mine. So I was like... George was like, you should just use your POV so that we get your reaction for you

hitting Diamond because they were already diamond. I was like, all right, cool. They're like, it should just be one game. And then we lost four straight. Or no, we went one in four. And so then we just like, we were pissed and just started drinking. Who was it? Were you getting shit on on these four games?

Blake and I got fried the first game. And that was the breakup game. Blake was, Blake was pissed. Blake was pissed. Because he was playing a character that like is like a support character. so like if I'm not doing my job, he's kind of not, can't do his. So I was getting shit on, so he was getting shit on. We went like 0 and 16, the first side.

Damn. Yeah, it was really bad. It was really bad. And then, so we go down one four, just start drinking. We're like, all right, well, we're not finishing it tonight. We'll finish it next week. And so we literally just like, Blake was just like, yo, just play yoroo. Like, let's just have fun because, like, we're gone this weekend.

So I start just instillocking Yoru every game, which is the troll character. And then we win and we win and we win and we win and we win four back-to-back games. You popping off at all? Pop, pop, pop, pop. I mean, I'm holding my own now with the troll character. And that's how we ended up winning. It was just like giving no fucks and just like hitting sight. And I'm using these trolley abilities and is working out.

You should have just brought the Adderall back. Would you... I feel like... I mean, it wouldn't be bad for you to say it. If I said, I'm going to bring the Adderall back. I wouldn't get any support. Well, I mean, people wouldn't support you for doing it either. But I'm saying, like...

I don't know. You think it would have been funner or more funner? See, the thing with... Just cracked. Like, would you be able to, like, get into it and grind and... I don't know. they, Adi for me was... I can't fucking do nothing now.

Addy for me was fast-paced games. See, I don't know how you played S&D like that though. I didn't. I mean, I did, but like... But you enjoyed... Dude, the worst nights for me were the Modern Warfare 2 scuff house in my little closet.

They're hot as fuck. Playing until 6 a.m. 3V3 wagers. Those were like the days of like, okay. Would it be like respawn as well? Yeah, just respawn. 3B3. Blake George and I playing against three hackers that because they're the only people that play the game anymore for 20 bucks, nine hours straight.

You think they were hacking them? 100% they were hacking. But why you would just still play that? Still play. Because who else are we going to play? Who else are we going to play? And we'd beat them sometimes. But that's, yeah, that's, if they weren't hacking, they were keyboarding or

They were using some sort of aim. So fucking pathetic. But like those, so like when I think of like, which I'll never use, use it again because that shit is fucking evil. But when I think about using it, I think about like, like if I were to, if I played melee like smash because it's just W key forward. Yeah. Hit a million buttons. And I remember the last time I thought like, damn, this was. be crazy on Adderall was

did you ever play did you ever play World War or, uh, wait, Vanguard? I feel like I've played every cod, but it's like, I don't, I like, get them fucking mixed up. Hard point on Baccage was the most crackhead.

It was the most, it was the most crackhead game, game type, game type. I think I've ever played on Cod. And you loved it? I, I mean, I never, I never, I was done taking at the time. But I remember thinking like, I bet you people, this would be the moment.

I bet you people pop 60 and play this map over and over and over again. What would you say your negatives about it was of taking? Adderall? Everything. I mean, like, can you get specific? Because like, I don't know. This is just me being insulted. but I played HALLO yesterday.

And I'm just like, all these motherfuckers are just cracked doing nothing. They're just taking out of all day. I fucking know it. But like, what would, there was, how about,

let's start with, what were, what were your good times on it? That's it. That's it. It's just like, just like, it was all fake good times.

It's all, it's all fake. It's all fake. It's like, imagine if you go, like, or it'll be like two hours of like,

you're feeling. and music's blasting, like, your fucking brains going. Actually, but then, like, the next 10 hours that you're, like, still feeling it. It's just not worth it.

It's just not worth it. I mean, there was a couple times editing vision or, I used to, like, it was really, dude, it's so horrible for you. Like,

I would stay up all night. And then, like, I'd have a meeting. This isn't, like, the scuff house. Like, I'd have a meeting with,

like, a sponsor or something at, like, 10 a. Yeah. And I would just take it nine. And then I would be like, they had to have known in the meeting. Because I'm probably like eyes bloodshot, but still like, yeah, I think this would be a really good idea for a smooth comment to the video.

You know what I mean? Like that? There are times where I was like, I feel like I'm a superhuman right now. But then the crash is so bad. I look back and I feel like not that many people called me out for it as far as like fans or. Well, when I took, I would get very talkative. Yeah. When you took, you wouldn't say a word.

Yeah. So people could, you could play it off as like, I'm tired or I'm just really folk. Bit up all night. Yeah, yeah. But me, like, I remember actively thinking in my head like, okay, stop talking. Really? I would take. I wish I would get like that, bro.

I'm so fucking weird. I feel like most people are like that. I would take it like going to the venue Like when I was like really addicted to it I would take it just like going to the venue Same Just to like I'd take Addies and like a few shots Head to the venue I'm fucking

What's so man? Y'all nice to meet you exactly And it was like so much I mean it was it made it more fun But then like you start crashing it's like I'm gonna go back to the hotel Like where are y'all going I'll meet up You were like, you want to eat something?

You're like, I'm not really that hungry. I think I used to take it on the fly, like our two-hour shit. Like, I think I used to take it on the flycast, but I would take Xanax with it. Jeez. And maybe some concentrate coffee. I never, I don't, I mean, maybe I did take it during Scuff House flycasts. You know the random flycasts that we used to do in the infinite offices? I took them, I took them.

Yeah, I feel like I had. I feel like I had to. Yeah. I remember one time we, I think a bunch of shit, like maybe went down with like Hax, Jay, maybe you and like infinite. And I think we like didn't really have content for like a month and a half or like two months or something or like I was in something. And Flame Sword wasn't in something else. Or we just didn't. I didn't see Flame for like two months or maybe longer, maybe shorter.

But then we had like some meeting of like. all right everyone come in we need to talk about how we're going to like pick this shit up because this shit sucks right now we had a meeting and i walked in and just flame sword out loud it's just like damn you got skinny and i was just like fuck and like because when you're i guess it's just such it's such a it's such a slow process when it's me but i entered like another this was probably like my fortnight fortnight yeah for sure fortnight with like monster fucking cracked error so I just

disappeared playing that forever because I don't think we had content really so I just never had to because when we would have content I would like take I would like try not to take the day before or something and like get some sleep and then wake up and maybe take a little bit

or I don't know but I just remember Flamesword saying that out loud and I was like God dude I really have been and it just like fucking put like such a i was like embarrassed yeah i was like dude i looked like a fucking crackhead that's how that i mean i i've said it before but that that that shot that hector got in his log where i'm walking out of my room in a wife beater i was like dude because those were the

monroe for two nights i i purposely didn't take a picture in 2020 because like how fucking gross i looked like i literally don't have a picture from pretty much like 10 months of 2020. Yeah. Because I was just so skinny and I was like, dude, these like can't get out. And it was, but now looking back, I'm like, God, I kind of wish

I did have a picture of that. Just to see. I wish I had a picture of you. I wish I could have old me like stand beside me. And I'd just look at him like. Hector might have a picture of you before you went in. Just be like, fucking ew. Hector sent me a picture and said the package has arrived

whenever you went to, to rehab. Like the package has been delivered. And I just remember you were, you were sitting like this. You were sitting like this and like looking at the camera. Before I went in?

Before you went in. Like you're in the lobby. You guys are in the lobby. And you're sitting like this like holding your hand and your bones. Like Andrew Tate. No, not like Andrew Tate.

Your bones are like visible. Like your hand. Here it is. Bro, I used to look at my hands and my shit would be like black, purple and blue. my like fingernails would be super long and like dirty like they look like straight grandma hands

yeah it was crazy just like don't do addie don't especially like it's like it's so weird because sometimes i feel i feel weird talking about it because in some cases it can be seen as like yeah well i still i still feel like i could benefit from it but i just abused like if i just took my 20 to fucking bang out a four hour stream and then like still worked out afterwards and ate oh for sure and drank hell of water like i'm not because i know plenty of people that can't function without like but like don't abuse it but don't abuse it like there's plenty of people that use it for what it should be used i don't know i think it's fucking legal meth basically like it's there's no not that there's no drug like it but like you

really I've heard from multiple people. It does something to your fucking brain that really like lights you up and I don't know if that should be legal but I mean and I still feel like even now it's like I mean I've said it

a hundred thousand times but like God I cannot just sit down and like I've I can't sit down and focus I've had to consciously this past week I've consciously sat down and been like, I'm going to read 10 pages of this book because I need to fix whatever's happening.

Like, I feel like my brain's like deteriorating because I've done nothing in a long time productive for my brain besides, I mean, I don't know if I'd count the gym, like the gym and running and shit. Obviously, it's good for your body and brain. But like, I've done nothing to like work my brain. Like my brain, like, you know what I'm saying? like no type of like computer work haven't really didn't wasn't playing video games for a long time

like nothing was working my brain so now I play like one game of Sudoku a day like I'm telling you like I'm having to like go through rehab with my brain as if I got like a concussion or something and like start rewiring some shit. Take a class I've wanted

like college not like a college class. It would be so hard. Yeah Like I Not like a not like just not like reading 10 pages from this from my book that I Like to read it's just like a self-help book but like even doing that it's like I'm getting lost Within like three seconds and I'm just thinking about and I'm like let me focus let me read this and it's just like It's such like a

Maybe not even maybe not even like a like a study like a maybe like a yoga class or like a meditation some shit even yeah like meditation It's like I can't even imagine it's fucking TikTok's not helping either Dude you gotta get rid of shit I I seriously think I might need to delete the app Just once again the other Few days ago why canceled on Tuesday or whatever we went to a pool party a drink Oh wait what was that fucking see here it is I forgot what I was what the fucking point To talk to oh Went to the pool Monday got drunk

Tuesday canceled. Didn't feel good. And I was on TikTok for probably 10 hours the next day, just like laying in bed. Just like going from, I mean, I'm not sitting there 10 hours straight. But I mean, basically. And like my girl, like, go down serious work a little bit. Might hop on the couch, make food. And I'm just like, uh, uh.

Dude, you've got to get rid of it. It's so bad. You have to get rid of it. and my attention span has just gotten so bad and I feel like I haven't worked my brain even like video games just like trying

thinking of certain just staying alive or like what play do I make here it's like I think there's some benefit to it when me playing Halo yesterday was not I was just like too it reminded me why I started

IRL streaming especially I was playing decent I was like you know I ain't that I ain't that bad that I like ranked up up out of my placements back to Onyx.

Start playing against better players. I'm playing okay though. And then one game I'm just getting shit on everything's going wrong. I can't get a kill. I can't be given a kill. I'm losing every individual fight. And then I look over to my chat. Like, chat's not going too fast.

Whatever. I look over to my chat. I just see nonstop typing. I'm like, what the fuck? And I see scump say, yo. I was like, is he about to, like, raid me or something? Is that what's going on? I was like, God.

And this is while I'm getting fucking shit on. And people were just like, yo, yo, yo, yo. Scump sent us, scumps in us. But I guess he was just, like, bored doing the Apex stream and just, like, clicked my stream. But I'm just getting donged on. I hit the back button. I'm 4 and 18. There's scumph.

12,000 people just brought up. Just brought up on his stream. Check me out. And I'm just like, I'm like, check. Look, look, look, look. And I just hit the back button of 4 and 18. I'm just like, God, a fucking course you join this. I literally just had like a decent game before this.

And I'm just getting fucking pounded. But I don't know. I just can't fucking focus in. Sometimes I wonder, I'm like, man, but like maybe a 20 just get me through like four hours. Play Halo. I actually enjoy it. Like I sit at my setup. I can't even get comfortable.

My hips hurt. I like tense up my legs. When I play, I, like, I, like, I. I can't figure out what posture I want to use. Don't, dude. Don't do it. But I need to just chill the fuck out. Chill the fuck out.

But it's so hard because I swear I used to be good. And like I would get on and even just casually playing. Like I'm keeping up. I'm doing I'm doing good. But like now it's like I'm fucking trying. And it's I still can't like. Well, okay. But I don't play like I haven't play.

Yeah. I haven't picked up with, I've played three times and I think four months. Yeah. So why are you? And I'm picking up the controller and playing kids that are playing every single day. Yeah. But like, and I'm just uncomfortable. If you played over thinking.

I'm like, I just, I mean, I just went from not playing Ballarat to like hitting diamond in one thousandth of the time that a usual person would hit Diamond. Like, and it's just because like, and I got carried for like the first. 40 hours to get into gold or whatever. First 40 hours is crazy. Yeah, I mean, once you do 100, it's funny. And it might be more than that. Once you do like a 100 hours series, it sounds like such a long time, but we've done five of them now.

And it's just like. So is it you start like you turn the stream on, boom, let's play Valorant. You sign on Valerant. You start the clock. Start the clock. Okay. So it's not game. It's not play time.

It's stream time. Okay. But. So I get killed. just because my my my blake and george been playing so long but like you you once you start putting in reps you're gonna fucking figure it out and i don't even have a base for uh or i don't even have a base for valerment you have a base for halo so you're already your shittiest game you're already gonna be keeping up with people that have been playing for the last six months well that's why it's like because i have a base it's like more depressing when i lose like if i was to get on balleran i wouldn't

give a shit oh like i would have fun getting shit on yeah yeah yeah i I get that. So Halo, there's just no fun when getting shit on. Yeah. And I'm getting shit on. And I'm getting shit on. And by shit on, I mean, I'm just doing as well as all the other peasants. Dude, when Seth picked Reddles over me in Cod for the shock caller video, it was genuine.

I was genuinely pissed. I'm not going to lie. I looked at Reddles. I was dead. And it was on his POV or some shit. And I was like, he's kind of nice. Oh, he's good. I'm not saying he's not good.

He was snaking hardest. I'm like, what the fuck? I can't do that. Who did Seth pick first? Reddles. Oh, really? Yes. I mean, even over, well, I didn't care.

I was like, I'm not good. And I haven't touched the controller in much, so I wouldn't give a shit. But yeah, I could see that. I was like, dude, he just plays Rocket. He just plays Rocket League on doesn't even touch God. I mean, I, I,

but I mean, a pro player, that's what they can adapt pretty quick. I know that's what Seth's going off of. Pro player. Yeah, that was a. crazy pick and that was a crazy god i still that was a good ass video and also not that i still think definitely gonna miss reddles it really sucks that we had to exit rocket league but yeah i just got i just started streaming again from here it's for the past what week oh really and then rattles

would sit beside me and i was like god he's about to be annoyed and then come to find out i only got to sit beside him a few days. He was good, though. He was good for content. He's a good kid. He's going to do, I think, I think what happened with Mixwell and Tarek, where it's like, you knew that after they're done competing, they're going to, that's what's going to happen what else.

Is he pop? I have never tuned into his stream. Not going to lie. Yeah, he's popping. Is he popping? Yeah. He is a really good YouTube channel, really good, dream grind and work ethic. And he's also the, I mean, I don't know much about the inner workings of Rocket League and all the players, but apparently like when he joined Optic, he was considered like a good player and has been playing for a long time.

But the cracked kids were coming in and hitting all these crazy flips and all the tech skills, Shotsie like movement. But over the past six months, Reddles is like super adapted and like figured out how to do all those. It's like the new Fortnight kids. Right. And people were like, oh, well, like the new. He's like T-Food. Rettles can't hang with the new kids is what the people were saying.

And over the last six months, he's shown that like he can. Was it almost like Fortnite with the new kids in Rocket League? Like how they, it was just like, dude, what the, Rock. Should it be a, you should not be able to do that. The skill ceiling in Rocket League is,

I think, top three in e-sports. Like, I don't think I, it is in, It is insane. The amount of buttons they have to press and the way they carry their momentum and figuring out angles. I don't know. There's Fortnite's up there too. But with Fortnite, there's ways you can cheese around it.

Like if you get, if you break the bottom of their base, then the whole thing falls. Or if you get like a. Yeah, that's how our brains think. If you, oh, I mean, I know. I know, not us. But I'm saying like there are, there are. We just watch them build up that. It's at the bottom

There's no way I'm even trying to like But like With Rocket League there There is no rocket launcher Or grenade launcher There's no sniper rifle There's no way that you can maybe even Squeak a kill in there

Like you've got to hit all those buttons What can people even be Like you look at snipe down formal They got like Super good shots super good with the sniper is there shit like that for Rocket League like this person's super good at

yeah I mean yeah there's dribbling in the air yeah or something like that like are they're like not rolls well I guess there are roles right because like one person has to one person has to guide everyone like think about a basketball court I might play Rocket League today bro I don't know if I can do that

like thinking about like a basketball court like you have to tell all your teammates where to go who's rotating back like who's going to challenge this because if you both challenge i feel like there's so much pressure on you too if you don't block a goal or like you fucked up or you took us half second to like dude why didn't you why didn't you come back immediately exactly like you knew they or like if you it it the rocket league's only time that it's felt like a video games it felt like a sport to me really because like the three of us play so

if I remember the first time like I missed a because when you first play you just want to hit the ball like that it's hard enough just to hit the ball and then and then you got to figure out how to angle your car so the ball goes off your car and goes towards the direction of the goal so if you hit the ball towards the goal now that's that's all you care about and then it gets to a point where like damn I should have made that shot which is like yeah a weird thing I don't know you got to use like paddles and shit I used... Or is it very... Is it basic? Pretty basic. You use... The chat... It's a very...

IRL streaming, which was fucking ridiculous when it's 105 every single day. But it's finally it is cooling down, though. think we're hitting 80s next week. You should probably start doing that. Higher out stream? Yeah. Now that it's definitely, I'm not going to be a running.

I'm going to be streaming almost every day. What I don't know. Some days I'll probably just hire out stream. Maybe take my phone to the gym or walk around or whatever. But yeah, thank God it's cooling down. Even yesterday, random 5K, it was 106 degrees out. it was so hard it was a nice experience ran the kd5k yesterday have not been really been running these past two months maybe past three months same every now and again i will i'll go run like a little bit of a like a

little over a mile or something maybe like two max but that'll be like once every week or two it's just so hard It's so hard, so hot, and I could really feel my summer shenanigans are, were weighing me down. And I was just like, my conditioning got just super bad. And it's so much harder yesterday. I posted all my Instagram, I, like, posted my 5K time. It's like 3.1 miles. I've ran it in like 940. I had like a 947 pace

and that was me pushing it and I look back in my Strava from May I had a six mile I had a six mile six mile or and I had like a 850 pace I was I do and then I had a 10 mileer with a 950

pace I'm just like dude this 3.1 miles is what I've ran in 10 miles that's how I did the last time I ran I can't even breathe and back then I would feel like my it was my legs my conditioning felt fine. Like I could breathe. I was like almost enjoying it just like focusing on my breath but like my hips would hurt my knee would hurt my ankle would hurt would hurt and that's why I felt like I would like be a little slower but yeah now my conditioning is shit. I would like

look I can look back like three months ago when before it got like death outside and like I was running like four miles a day and one dude sometimes the pace was like 8.30 a mile. And I was like, dude, I'm fucking getting it. Dude, if I tried to run an 830, dude, I don't even know if I could run an 830 right now. It's just so, it's, I mean, it is, it is making excuses because we could just run inside on the treadmill, but I hate running on the treadmill. I hate it.

I find it like, obviously, it's not pointless, but I would see like people at my gym running on the treadmill. I'm like, do you just go run outside? And I'm sure in their head, they're thinking it's 105 degrees. and I can't I'm not gonna have like a good pace it's super uncomfortable it's hard to fucking breathe yeah but um and plus like with the with the off season and around the bar and also getting mace like dude it's a lot of shit going on right now yeah I need to just do it though just just just do them I need to I need to go back to just like wake up and get it done

yeah empty stomach I have been walking I have been walking like mace every day so that's well i'm walking like a mile and a half and shit but yeah when i did my 60 day video i was doing an incline walk and like that sort of i think that's sort of like your zone too to where like i could i'm i can fucking feel this like i'm on the treadmill like a 12 or 15 incline i would do that for at least 30 minutes every single day and i think that got my cardio like really good because i started running and like quickly i felt like i could run a three four miles Like every time I would go out It'd be like three, four miles

That'd be like the minimum So like incline walk on the treadmill Definitely help But like now I don't do any of that I just like I'll just been lifting weights But I want to I want to get back into it One of my

One of my subs is a college runner And I think he's studying Like coaching Track or some shit So he sent me a program I think I'm going to start at Sunday and we'll see how that goes. Okay.

Not getting sore and not getting injured and it's going to be the challenge and actually stretching is going to be the fucking challenge. But yesterday, so Katie 5K, I think there was a couple thousand people in the race. It was insane. Thousands of people on Katie Trail? There was, Katie Trail was the ending part. Like we ran, we were all running through the streets And I think they did it Right by in the beginning

You're just all in the street They have the whole entire street blocked off It's big and wide Because when the when everyone's starting off Everyone's jam packed together Yeah, yeah But after like a mile and a half People start separating

Yeah, like it's less of a cluster fuck So by the time The last I think it was like last 1.3 miles That you're on the trail or you get onto the trail and there's only 1.3 miles and it's like people are just way more separated. Yeah. So you couldn't, they could not start that shit on KD Trail. It's just way too thin.

There was so many people there. It felt like my first MLG event almost. Like, don't know anyone. Don't know anyone. Everyone's in it. You're just kind of like looking at people like, just like, hmm, who here's scouting? Like who's good? Like, who do I think is not?

nasty like you can tell who real runners are and I was like there's no I wanted to feel like people were looking at me like he's probably a pretty good runner but they weren't but they probably weren't looking like they could probably just see right through me if you have biceps you're not considered yeah I would see skinny people with like the shorts that are leggings though like the tights the short tights would just see the Nike check and then they're like running shoes and then they're like tank top silky running shirt and I'm like yeah that motherfuckers he's like doing this to compete I don't know if they treat it like they're competing I think they're competing against themselves like trying to get PRs like I wonder if that's what they're because a lot

of people were I mean a lot of people are like me they're just doing it for I was trying to I was like if I can get to about eight minutes and if I get an eight minute pace I'll be super happy because I was like, I'm going hard. Jesus. And after the first half mile, I was like, I got to slow the fuck down. I was like, I'm not even going to finish. And literally the whole race I felt like I was. Like barely hanging on.

Yeah. Like, I was like, if this was not a race or like, because I told myself, I'm running the entire time no matter what. Like, even if I have to go slow. But if that was not a race, that would have not, I would have walked. because my heart felt weird Like the heat Last time I tried to do a 10 mile I did it at 1 a.m.

And I was And that was the last time I did it at 10 miles was at 1 a.m. as well And I did it in under two hours And I was like super happy Like happy about it Dude

I made it I made it three and a half miles And I stopped I was like dude The last time you attempted one Attempted And I was like So you're like there's no way

I'm fucking getting missed out There was no way I would have finished without getting like sick. And and then I checked because even though it was 1 a.m. I checked my weather app while I was walking back, which was very humbling, by the way, to run three miles because I was going to run five miles, five miles.

I ran three miles and then walked three miles back. So I checked my weather app and it was like 102 degrees at 1 a.m. And I was like, that has to play a part. Yeah. Because the last time I did it, the last time I did it was probably 70 degrees outside. I'm almost excited to start now. God, I have such gunk in my throat. I just feel it.

I'm almost excited to start now and then November, if it's a little chilly out, maybe one chilly day, like how that's going to feel. Dude, like the dew on the ground and you're running. It's probably going to be kind of nice. You get back, you have a coffee. I need to prep myself for it to really enjoy those moments. But it was crazy.

It was right by where I live, but walked there and just see a huge crowd of people. Every road's blocked off. Everyone's in, it was, I want to say there was 4,000 people there. I could be wrong. Jesus. But there was a lot of people. I think they said over the microphone, at least say boss, because I ran it with him. And I think he said, he heard them say there was like that many people there.

but seeing all those people there like standing in the it was I almost didn't go because I went to like register and it was like final total $71 and I was like for a 5K I'm going to end up running this and walking straight home I'm not enjoying the activities afterwards of everyone hanging out so I was like what if I just like start joining like I'm on Katie Trail just waiting on the bench and then when everyone comes that's so funny but at all they had every i don't even know if you could like sneak in because there's a policeman at like every yeah and i'm sure people maybe tried to sneak in or some shit um but just registering getting my tag thing stretching out foam rolling before i took my inhaler with me in my pocket and thank god i don't think i probably wouldn't have finished if i didn't take my inhaler Taylor. But they're like doing the countdown like five minutes and then I'm like in a

in a big pile of people at the starting line just waiting to go and then they go. And it was just like a. Woo. Everyone's. Yeah. Good luck. So just like getting. It was good just like to have that experience.

Because showing up to like a 10K or something. Just being able to my next 10K I'll be like I'll just feel. Yeah. I don't know. you just kind of get what's going on. Like I didn't know. I was like, do I, I saw a thousand people already in the line. I'm like, dude, do we got to get in the back of all those?

But there's like little side gates. You can kind of just like go wherever the fuck you want to go. Sneak into the front, middle, back. So it was a good experience. The Sebas fucking beat me. And I was surprised, but he said he's been, but I haven't been doing any running. My conditioning is horrible.

and he said he's been like playing soccer he's been running a bit I was like okay so that kind of makes sense because last time I ran with him he was walking I was like kind of just like jogging beside him like come on man like hyping him up I was like come on but he got pretty good he fucking he beat I lost him he just went ahead

first half mile my first mile I think was like an 847 pace or something but then I was that's when I was like I got to slow down and then we went up a big ass I was fucking struggling to get up. But in the beginning, first mile, I'm like passing people. I'm like, get out of my way, fat ass.

Like, I do this. Like, motherfuckers don't know. I've been doing this. This is my shit this year. Like, this is all I talk about on the podcast. I'm like, move. You fucking slow fuck. And then so I'm bouncing in between people.

And then probably a mile and a half in, it comes the or a little over a mile comes like the uphill part and I was slowing down and I said people start passing me the same fat asses the same fat asses fast as me again is destroying me uphill

like little four foot nine girl like someone's little cousin that's doing it for fun passing me I'm like oh my god I get up the hill there's probably a mile and a half left I don't think I passed a single person after that.

I was just, everyone's passing me. Non-fucking stop. And I'm like, I want it should. Usually it would like motivate me to like keep up. Because sometimes I'll be, when I was running good months ago, if someone was running in front of me, I would just like keep up with them. I was like, no matter what, I'm just going to try to keep up with them. Let's see how far they go. They're not outrunning me.

literally on like David Gagins is behind them like they're just casually running listening to their music um so and then I'd say there's there was 1.7 or 1.3 miles left we get on katy trail and that's just like the straight away and every single person was passing me and like people would stop and walk and honestly sometimes I would think like why are you stopping walking like there's not that much further left. And it's like, I'm wondering, like, in their minds, why are they not, like, not like me, like, forcing myself to fucking run? Like, I was like, this is a dub as long as I don't walk.

Even if I have to go slow as shit. But I'm sure they don't give a fuck. But that was my goal in my head. But literally, the last mile, every single person is passing me. And I'm just going slow. But, and I think, like. my final mile was like 10 like a 1030 pace or something like that but it was just so it was so much harder than what I thought it'd be it was it makes it made me realize how fun it would be if you

really were in shape and you were just trucking along with other people be so much fun like keeping pace with them but when you're just getting smoked and you can't breathe and I thought about I thought about like I should like IRL stream this but there was no if I would I would have IRL streamed in about half a mile in, I would have been like, there's just no way. Like, especially, your phone would have fried anyway. Yeah, probably would have overheated. No, because 106.

I can't even put my phone on, I have a little pop socket thing and I put my phone. I can't even put, during the summer in Texas. Yeah. I can't put my phone. I have to put my phone next to the air conditioner. Same. Yeah.

Because it, I can't. Yeah. Yeah, it's fucking ridiculous. But it will be fun. I'm going to do, I mean, if there's another, 5k or whatever in like two months I'll probably do it again yeah see what I can improve on on Sunday

I've this dude sent me a program on Sunday that I'm gonna start doing we'll see how much I because I do I think enjoyed lifting more but I do really enjoy running because I have been like super anxious and like disappointed in myself

and depressed um as per usual but during that run It was like I didn't think about like any of that. I was just like breathe and just like all of that just like went away. And then afterwards I was like a DoorDash Taco Bell. And I was just like how I talked to the Taco Bell driver. I was like it was just like more social and friendly even though I was exhausted.

But there was just like the anxiety was a win away. And I just wanted to go home, take a shower, eat. I mean granted I went home in my. dogs were just out of control and just fighting and parking and but it was just like it really running gives gave gives me a just like a I'm just more comfortable after I run I'm just my potty's exhausted even when I run I'm not like stressing about going forward in 32 and halo and or just other shit in life like running is just super good for me and I think especially mentally I want to run in the mornings and just like start my day with that.

Exhaust myself a little bit. Get my water in. Stretch. I mean, that would be ideal. I mean, we'll fucking see. But I do. My goal is to like kind of look a certain way with the gym. Even though I've kind of slacked the past two weeks, but it's not that bad.

My diet's just been shit. But I think the summer shenanigans are over with. my pool at my apartment no longer gets sun really Michelle's friends are done going out so I'm done hanging out

with them for a little bit because I would just like Michelle would be like hey I'm going to something something I could be like well I could either go stream Halo rage and completely start over with streaming since I haven't touched it in two months

or I could just like go get drunk and forget about everything and act like I feel good. But really, I would just feel good for like two hours and then feel like shit the rest of the day. Cancel Flycast, then get depressed and scrolling with TikTok all day. So that those shenanigans, I think, are over with for sure. So I'm back September, October, November, December I plan on streaming almost every day. You should hit this monor for free.

Step my diet up. The what? So you should hit this monologue. more for a three wave that's coming. Is that the new game coming out? Yeah, whenever it drops, I'm gonna. Because that, I think the drop of that game is gonna be really good. I think it's gonna be way better than the last couple years.

Yeah, I'm definitely going to try to ride any waves I can get. Because there's gonna be Halo. I'm gonna, HALO Worlds is, I don't fucking know the date. It's like a week of October, right? Is it? I think so. So, in a month. HALO's done.

Like, no one's going to watch that shit in the off season. I mean, they hardly watch it now. But up to Worlds, I'll probably dabble in Halo. Dude, it was speaking of HILOS. And then go to Worlds, watch party that. It was crazy hosting the inner circle with the Dynasty team. Did I tell you I did that? I'd say speaking of Halo, though?

Well, because we talked about HALO a lot because Ian and. informal, informal at just one MVP. Yeah. Yeah. So all you guys said that, we thought that was never going to happen. I thought it was never going to happen. Did you talk about why you thought it would never happen? No, I mean, I'm sure people will be kind of upset about that because we didn't really talk about the downfall of the dynasty.

We mostly talked about the formation and like, you know, like how things have been since. We didn't really talk about like I didn't. There's been turmoil between basically all of them except Damon at some point and. time so like I didn't want to fucking bring up weird shit like that's save that for hector's eavesdrop if he wants but like I was mostly just talking about like different moments and different like perspectives between them and like what they've been doing since and how they related to each other and that's kind of where I went with it but it was it was crazy like sitting there I was at first because I drove Seth there and I was like how do you think this is

going to be like is this going to be fucking awkward like am I going to have to he was like, I'm fine. Is there going to be small talk between you fucks? Right. Like, am I going to ask a question and you guys are going to answer it? And then I'm going to run out of questions in 20 minutes because like I only have, you know, 15. Because no one's like elaborating with each other. Dog, it was like as soon as we sat down and we started talking, it was like, it was like they were back. It was fucking wild.

I don't know if it'll come through as much in the video. but like I was sitting there and like that's so much shit has happened between all four of those guys like individually just individually all of them Damon had a kid formal switched e-sports and as a crim's fucking switched complete e-sports

he's also been through the fucking ringer in cod and Seth is retired engaged watch part like there's so much shit that they've all done and so like I think coming back to it I kind of forgot like

how much time I personally had spent with the four of them because like I was with them every weekend for two years I fucking I miss that I miss that team like formal living there that team I didn't realize

living there Crim Six living there I didn't realize how much I missed that team that team is so I don't know if there will ever be a cod team like that. What years was that? 16, 17, 18.

Were they living at the scuff house with each other? Like Crim said? At one point everyone was living there except for Damon. Damon, of course. But yeah, at one point they were all living there. Just like it's, I don't know, it's such a cool fucking, because they're, so it went well. They are, I think it went really, really well.

And their personalities are just different enough. They are. Where it like perfectly meshes. It's so wild. Literally think about their personalities. Dude, they're so. Scump, Crim 6. Scump, talkative, but like super friendly and like.

Goofy. Yeah, goofy. But serious. Crim 6. Super talkative. Robot. But also goofy. Trolly.

Yes. But can piss you off. Yeah. Damon totally chill. Seems like he's high all the time. Totally chill. Hi's a fucking kite. But like funny and like you like having him there.

Yeah, yeah. Just like having him there. And then formal just like locked. Locked. Quiet but also funny. But also hilarious. And trolly. Yeah.

And troll. It's like I mean, I know the way we described that sounds like they're all the same person. But in reality, they're all. They're, they're, they're the chemistry the way, because I was obviously the elephant in the room was Matt and Ian. So I was like, I hope this is going to be fine. And then Ian started talking about,

Ian started talking about like F1 driving and Matt was asking questions about like the difference. And I was able to take a back seat. That always happens of like, in real life, like they're not going to like be in a discord call together. Yeah. But in like real life, you'll start.

There's like a respect. There's just like a. respect for each other. To be on the... Like, Foreman's not going to pull up and just be like... Yeah. It's the same with Crim Six. It is weird. It is weird.

It is weird how that happens, though. But, yeah, I think that went really well. I'm excited to see what the edit looks like, and I'm glad that it finally got done. Yeah, the audio. We already checked the audio. Was that the first? Did that? I wonder if they, like, came back in...

Yeah, we put it... Matt was like the Dynasty podcast is good. We did it. take a shot and Roger replied and said until I see four audio tracks I will not take a show because the one of the The goat show audio got Butchered was it

Is it someone's fault? I mean yeah it has it has to be someone's fault the SD card over In the middle of the recording the SD card Capped out So I thought it was like a technical Like I don't fucking No the SD card I think either corrupted

Or something like that So does someone have to be on top of that, like, quickly and, like, can you notice that? You can't notice while it's recording, no. You don't notice until afterwards. So, like, could it even be someone's fault? Use a better SD card? I don't, I, I, I can't remember.

I felt really bad for the boys because obviously audio has been an issue. And that was one of, that was one of the things that was on that. You did that. You did that, right? The Go-show? No, no. Wait, who? Go-show is.

Oh, is Seth. Formal Seth, Damon, Will. Big-time. Yeah. And, like, Seth, kind of. hosted it. Seth hosted it and Seth's SD card was the one that broke. Yeah, people.

So they had to, they had, they had to like AI. Like, it's honestly like. Seth's audio? Like everyone else was good. Seth's audio completely broke. Everyone else's audio worked. So in order to get Seth's audio, they AI, uh, they used AI. I don't know.

I was talking to producers and they used the voice off of everyone else's lives and boosted his, his voice. voice. So low key, as much as the audio doesn't sound good, it salvaged like 300%. Yeah. So it doesn't sound great, obviously. On the video, though, are the other three's mics, okay? From what I've heard. Okay. Because all I saw was a clip of set. And when I see the clip? I think maybe Optic tweeted it out.

Yeah, yeah. But they were just, people were just fucking raging. That one really sucked. What do you want to do? You can't really run it back. You can't run that back. Because that's just weird. You're going to be asking the same questions.

The conversation is totally ungenuine. It's not. Right. You can't really run that back. It's hard enough to probably get everyone there. That's the underlying. That's the biggest issue. It's so hard to get those four guys with their schedules together.

It's like damn near impossible, especially between Matt and Will because they're doing crazy shit. So, like, their schedule is insane. So you have to run. I mean, you have to, it really sucks,

but you have to run it the way it does. Yeah, like, would you, I'm sure it's only a little, a few fucking little shits talking shit about it, but it's like, would you rather just us not put it out then? I mean, anytime.

Even though the audio sucks, it's still. Anytime there's anything with, the paywall like which you get but which i get i get i get it too but there's i get it to i get it to that's just something you can't we do really appreciate everyone that's signing up for optic nation and know the meld of optic nation members doesn't equal we get more money it's this is just what we have to do you see everyone else's esports business going under well they're we're trying to find solutions to how to make it in this

industry and this is one of the ways to do it. So every time you sign up for Optic Nation, it really does help show that we have supporters that are willing to support us in that way. So thank you. That's what Optic Nation is basically all about. I'm sure there's a bunch of people out there are like, damn, paywall for trivia videos. Now, what, HECS doesn't have enough money? It's like, that is. Trust me, it's going directly to HECS. Yeah, all of it. Going straight to hexes and dogs. Right to hex and the dogs. It's not to pay for all of the staff here.

His, uh, in this, the rent of this place. In the rent of this place, downtown Dallas. Right in front of the American Airlines Center. His, uh, idiot, you watch his idiot show. Idiots is fire. Yeah, it's good. It's what I, it's what I, it's what I, imagine my 60 days.

It's not what I imagine my 60 days to be like because they did it so much fucking better. Yeah. And like, obviously their shit's food, my shit's. But it's just like a quality show that like has a point to it, a beginning and sort of

storyline. And it was just super super well done. Yeah. It kind of makes me want to do a fucking show like that. There's a, there's a program that I've been talking about where, um, where if you want to make a show on nation,

then you can do that. I'm making a show. It's an extension of around the bar. So like I do around the bar that goes up on a YouTube channel and then there's extension like an hour extension where we play beer pong and answer questions and stuff and that segment is going to go on optic nation so so yeah and yeah i don't know what the fuck i do so that i'm actually mad excited about that i'm actually i'm about to go film that right now yeah i don't know if i've talked about my i've had to have mentioned my 60 day video of like

why i haven't uploaded it but just like but people still ask me on stream someone tweeted me yesterday So to just clear the air The first First off I started the 60 days Before I even I started day one Before I even was filming

So by the time we started filming It was like day three or four My weight was already down It wasn't my official Start weight We didn't I was like already I like already started

So it's like kind of a bad start But for me it was like Regardless I need to do this And my brain was set like fuck this i'm starting this tomorrow i know if i don't start it tomorrow i'm not gonna fucking start it i'm not waiting till wednesday for lando to come down here blah blah blah yeah but still off the rip um like we had a good idea of what we wanted to do it's even like tictox youtube reels and it was like it made shit made sense but it was like we kind of just knew what

we were going to do like this week and next week and then after like three four weeks I stopped recording individually. I was getting fucking tired of it of just like doing cardio, waking up, doing cardio, showering, coming here and coming here doing content or streaming

and then going home, having to eat, then go to the gym, and then it was just doing it twice. And it was, I was exhausted because I was just doing so much exercise. And I was also running at times as well. and I just felt exhausted

and I was putting in less effort individually and I was kind of like hoping Lando comes up like dude I hope you come up with something like even one week I was like dude I don't think you even need to come down here it's like what are we gonna do we've we've already recorded the first three weeks

of you coming down here and we go to the gym and I try to ramble about some shit but it's like dude it's that even like what is that even the purpose of the video what the fuck is the purpose of the video and it's like, dude, it was a wake-up call of like, this is so much harder from like

a production standpoint of like, like, we really got a no, like say the first few weeks is done. It's like, okay, like you almost think about, okay, this is how it's going to be edited. Now we sort of need like a middle section. And it's like, what is we need to, let's switch subjects and like talk about something else.

And then like, we need a good ending. And it was just like, I felt like I didn't lose as much weight as I wanted to. But in reality, it was fine. It was good fucking weight. But I just felt like my transformation wasn't enough. And then even the, I thought it was fine. We did like the final interview and like that.

And I looked at it and just like didn't look too good. And like the, we set up like downlighting. So it looked, I just looked more beefy and shredded than I really was. But we set up like certain lighting to like make it. look good and we took shots of that and it looks solid but i'm like it's this fucking corny like we're comparing this to my horrible lighting fat stomach picture in the beginning you know it's just like dude it's not even then it was just like i don't know we just could have looked at or we just could a i mean it was definitely my fault too fucking or not not even his fault i was once we're

done i was like dude i don't know how you're going to fucking do this yeah but like good luck i wish i would have like fucking just tried to think and write shit down and organize and what what like how we are really going to do this but if something i sort of just like abruptly started and towards the end i just felt like i was like does the video even have like purpose Like is there, can you watch this and understand the, like, meaning I was trying to give it of just like, like, I know what it's like of like even in the first, even in my interview, I like was kind of like tearing up and like crying a little bit. Then there was like emotional moments that weren't put in it. And I was like, these should be put in it. But it's already like 16 minutes long. And it's like, how long do we really want to fucking make this? and there wasn't

and then I was I also felt like there should have been more working out involved with it and me talking about how I'm working it just so much fucking shit

but it's like I don't want this to be a 30 minute thing or should it be a 30 minute fucking thing and it's just fucking and then at the end it was just like man I don't know if like

the purpose of me doing this really got across in the video and it's 100% my fault I don't expect Landau to pull off some miracle editing animation fucking miracle at the end. But it's just I could put it out and people, I'm sure would be like love the video maniac. But I feel like for the effort, like if for my channel, my channel doesn't have just fucking bangor super high quality videos.

So if you throw that on my channel, it's fucking goes along perfect. or it's just some average shit you just fucking click you watch and like COVID and like no one would probably even like say anything about like damn this was a disappointment but in my head I was just like to dedicate literally 60 days straight to this it was like I just wanted it to be like a banger almost viral thing and I was just like this ain't it but I learned a lot from it there was definitely if I'm gonna ever do some shit like that again

like I have to I mean that's just part of my fucking brain where I need to step up is just really organizing and figuring out how to truly like not

just not be fucking lazy within organize and write shit down and come up with just ideas for the whole thing and it's harder to do than you would think in the first three weeks

it was fun You want to know some fucking horrible shit that happened? What? You ate meat? I switched phones And when I switched phones They erased my last phone

And two months Or the first four months Of all the vegan shit I had in here Is gone Damn Gone So Got to figure out how to

That's so fucking annoying Just like, but I mean, it was little videos and little B-roll and pictures. Were you not like thinking of that before you like don't know what I was thinking because like. You're just like, I need a new phone. I just like need a new phone and they were like, they told me like, oh, if you back it up, it'll back up exactly how your phone is now. And they did. And then I was like, okay, it's backed up exactly how it is now.

But all of my notes and my video, my video folders were gone. And I was like, dude. And there's a lot of running shit in there too because I was making a running video. So I mean, I can still. B-roll it. I'm sure I'll have to YouTube it a little bit. It's not I don't consider it lying if I take a B-roll shot from October

and put it in February. That's probably what I have to end up doing but because the story's still the same. I'm still fucking doing it. But yeah, that when I found that out I was oh dude.

Yeah, that's fucking horrible. I was so bummed. And Alexis was like oh so you're done now? And I was like no. I'm not going eight months. Yeah. How, yeah, where are you at right now? Eight months. Eight months?

Yeah, almost, well, nine, I guess, September. Nine months, no schmeet. No schmeet. No schmeet. I can't believe you actually did it. No schmeet. I feel like you would be, are you, does eating satisfy you anymore? Like, do you get a nice big vegan bowl of rice and beans and, like, you're excited, like, sit down,

had your computer. or like TV and watch something, and you still get excited. Yeah, I still fuck with it. Like you get that a little dopamine rush. Yeah. Yeah, I still like. I mean, I still enjoy food.

I mean, there's not, it's just that, that aspect of like, when you sit down and the taco meat is seasoned and you put the sauce on top and then you eat into it. And then you're like, oh my God. Like that doesn't exist. Like, it really doesn't.

If a vegan, I will break the, I think I, nine months in, I can say this, if a vegan's ever like, oh my God, they're lying. Really? Like they are, they might not know they're lying, but they are. But, but there is very good vegan food, very, very good vegan food. In fact, at the, at the Rangers game, they had vegan nachos and the cheese was made out of like almonds. And it was fire or cashews or something.

Dude, it was so good. Yeah, I could never. But. Any other videos you're doing? I want to do like another fitness one and like maybe even use what I did do and apply it to this. But by the end, I'm actually fucking shredded. I'm tired of talking about it. My apologies to everyone fucking listening.

Trust me. I have a video. I have a personal video that I'm still, I still need to film one more thing for and then I'm good. And then I'm going to do, I'm going to do a personal video because I'm going to be in Arizona for October. So when I'm there, I'm probably going to film something Dedicate some time Do you want to say? I don't know what it is yet

It's one of three things, so Okay We can, I tweet I don't know if you saw my tweet I said to send in some questions We can just I'm going to scroll. I haven't even looked

I mean, that would be nice. Yeah. Ashley, I miss Ashley. Lethal. Yeah, T.J. I don't know how good he would, I don't know what he would do. Yeah.

Because I don't think. I think between like T.J. T.J. Mixwell and Snakebite, those are probably like like the best. as far as people that have moved on from Optic those are like the closest I've ever been with people for those guys

I can't even say I didn't talk to Mixwell often but like his vibe he fucked with us I noticed that and I was like I fuck with you he still shows optic mad love He still I was watching the stream the other day and he still has his optic spray

As one of his sprays Because I came in and I said something And he was like everyone's talking in Spanish Then he goes Hitch what are you doing here and he sprays the optic logo and I was like what the fuck um or the optic gears team I love the whole gears team as well

um thank you jake lucky who an optic would win in an arm wrestling tournament probably me or promage pomage is like freakily strong got that Canadian strength and he's a big boy now he's big he's a big boy now

and I'm sure it's just pure fucking strength somehow Somehow. Some of these I just don't. Is Maniac the next Kanye, both musically and politically? These are the ones I'm just scrolling past. The answer is yes and no.

All right, let's find fucking like one more. Will the Flycasts have merch? Yes. Eventually. By the end of this year. It should be coming up soon. By the end of this year, you'll have Flycats. shirt, hoodie.

Maybe shorts. Maybe shorts. So yes, we are doing merch. Someone said do a tier list of optics of optic members based on contribution, growth, and content of brand. That'll have to be an episode. Scorn. But that be, yeah. Maniac at the bottom.

How was running helped affected y'all's mental health this year? I feel like we talked about it so much. And we talked about it. At least I talked about it in this one as well. It really does do some wonders for me. I think we're probably good. I got to go film this around the bar stuff. Wait, where are you filming it?

The bar? Well, it's not an episode. It's just like a voiceover. Okay. I've already done that. So how loud can I be on stream? You should be fine. Okay.

I'll probably, it'll probably take 20, it'll probably take two minutes. Okay. All right, guys. Did you see, wait, did you see, actually, I was going to say there's a video of a girl giving head, people calling it Logan Paul's fiancee and that it leaked. And Dylan Danis, like, tweeted it out. But now there's a, uh, a lawsuit between them. And apparently the girl that's not actually Nina. Yeah. But that's still going on.

Dude, we got... It's fucking... Did you read the comments from the last flycast? Uh-uh. Bro, people were on our shit. About what? About that situation. What are we just, like, wrong about it?

I guess. I guess we were wrong. I don't fucking know. We, because we said... Because we were like, dude, that's fucked up. That's fucked up. Like, Dylan, all we see is Dylan Danis, like, just... Just posting this girl everywhere.

And it's like, that's kind of lame. I wish it was between the two guys. Not like, what has she done to him? Why is she getting her life destroyed for this? That was the wrong thing to say, apparently. People were just like, people were like, apparently Logan brought his girl into it, involved.

That Jake fucked his, something. I don't know, something about Dylan Dennis's ex or his girl. Jake brought her involved. And so now he's getting his fiance, her, like, fiance involved. Regardless, I think,

All that shit's lame. Like, I don't think, I'm not choosing one side of the, I think at one point I said, people that just hate Logan Paul, though, and they love seeing this,

thinking this is like completely bringing him down. Yeah. And some people were like, well, yeah, like, some people are, it's funny because like,

however you think about, like, life and you listen to our, that, us talk about that situation is how people perceived their opinions. Some people were, in the same, same video some people were calling us like misogynist and then also and also people were calling

us like soft betas the same same same same same opinion yeah because at one point you were like at one point you say you're like well yeah there is a big difference between like a woman sleeping with a lot of people and a man sleeping with a lot of people oh so that's misogynist so that's misogynist but then if you say like but then you're like I think it should just be between the two guys people are like oh these guys are fucking soft the generation now all the democrats like yeah that's like yeah that's a Like it's just like People like they They just run with it

You know what I mean? People Just It's crazy to me Because I'm on the side of like She should not be involved And I don't know what Logan said about his girl or something Even if he did say that

There's no reason for his fiance to be getting destroyed as much Unless she said some crazy shit Unless she should not still be getting fucking destroyed If she's like she's shit in his bed on some like yeah what's his name

Johnny Depp shit then yeah that's cool I just don't but like it just seems like she's just like

goodbye standard but it's crazy there's some people who I think they kind of have stuff about like maybe an attractive girl never showed them attention

and they love seeing Dylan Dana shit on this fucking they love it it's weird this hot chick she thinks he's some hot fucking chick yeah reality check bitch

And like I know they're thinking of it from that. From that perspective. Your fiance before she was with you was a fucking slut. Slet with people. How do you feel? How many guys has she been with? Because there are pictures. Because there's pictures of her with them.

And it's like. And I live on like the complete opposite side of that to where I'm like, dude, she should not be getting destroyed. But there's people who live on the opposite side. And saying it's like, don't be so soft. Why are you? She deserves it. She deserves it.

If she was a fucking whore, she can, this is her repercussions. These white night gamers. And we just live on the complete opposite side of it. So, but I don't hate you. You can be on the opposite side. This is just how the world works. You don't need to hate me.

I don't hate you. We're on episode like 89. So we're bound to say some shit that people don't agree with. Well, that's got to get views somehow. Thank you guys so much for watching. Flycast that is going to do it. Make sure you keep that discussion going in the comments below. I'm going to check it out this side.
