Starting point is 00:00:05 All right. You'll just come on next week, right? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Welcome. Back to another flycast episode 690.
Starting point is 00:00:40 I think, what was it? Whatever show we on? 692, maybe. Something like that. Today's podcast. Flycast. is brought to you by corduroys and of course,
Starting point is 00:00:54 center CBD sparkling drink. Hitch! Chewing a chip into that mic. Let's get this. Chew one chip into the mic. I just want to hear the breakdown of it. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you what.
Starting point is 00:01:12 While you're chewing your chips. I'm, I forgot a month ago, 2.23, almost two months ago. I tweeted out, let's get some community questions on the flycast.
Starting point is 00:01:26 there's going to be questions about like Valentine's Day. Like super long ago. There's going to be questions like, you're in an arena with 50 hawks, 10 crocodiles, 3 brown bears, 15. This might be too much to remember. But it's shit like that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:01:47 You're in an arena with 50 hawks, 10 crocodiles. I don't know if you're going to be able to remember this. 50 Hawks, 10 crocodiles. Like, it's a fucking arena. Oh my God, finish it. But I need you to pick it. Picture this. You're in a fucking stadium arena. Stadium arena.
Starting point is 00:02:00 50 hawks flying. 10 crocodiles crawling. Three brown bears fucking barren. Okay. 15 wolves. One hunter with a rifle. So there's a fellow human. Seven buffalo. 10,000 rats. Five gorillas. Four lions.
Starting point is 00:02:14 You have to pick two to defend you against the rest of them. Who do you pick? The goal was to survive one hour. 50 hawks. Okay. 10 crocodiles. three brown bears I feel like you've got to go with the brown bears
Starting point is 00:02:29 brown bears are a given 15 wolves one hunter with a rifle I say fuck the human what's he what's it yeah he's seven with a rifle yeah he's got nine shots
Starting point is 00:02:42 yeah but people were saying this was a whole this was like literally a website of someone like analyzing it breaking it down like and he said like what I don't know does a hunter have unlimited ammo is he does he
Starting point is 00:02:56 Is he a, what they used to be a sniper? Is he, this is that? Seven buffalo, 10,000 rats. 10,000 rats is a given. Might be underrated. That was the first thing I thought. Five gorillas. What wins?
Starting point is 00:03:10 Five gorillas or 10,000 rats? 10,000 rats. What wins? Four lions or 10,000 rats? 10,000. I don't think, I don't think, I think the only thing that beats 10,000 rats are the hawks. I don't think 10,000? But do you pick the horses?
Starting point is 00:03:27 hawks. No. You pick the brown bears and you hide behind the brown bears from the hawks. You're fighting the hawks and the hawks might pick your shit apart. I hide behind the brown bears. So you're picking three brown bears and 10,000 rats? Yeah. And I'm triangulating the brown bears and I'm standing behind them so that nothing can come
Starting point is 00:03:48 from above because they'll go. You know what I mean? And then if the, if the wolves try to attack, I'll sit, I'll sick like 3,000 rats on them. and like at least nip at their ankles so the wolves are hurt when they get to the bears and then the bears can just one hit or quitter them. I wonder how many rats it would take down, it would take to take,
Starting point is 00:04:10 because I think the bear has got to be on the squad. How many, how many hawks? 50. 50. 50's a lot. Imagine three brown bears and 50 hawks. But if all 10,000 rats jump on your brown bears. Do your brown bears get fucked up? The hawks fuck everything up
Starting point is 00:04:30 Because 50 hawks Imagine triangular position Three brown bears around me Guarding me That's like imagine That's your bears are taking down the hawks Imagine 15 hawks per bear All attack at once
Starting point is 00:04:48 The bear's probably not gonna live that So then I'm I think What about you? Imagine you can fight in this Are you taking, how many hawks are you taking down? Bro. No. You don't think you could take a hawk one-on-one. A hawk?
Starting point is 00:05:03 Yeah. No. I don't, I don't know. What? I'm taking at least three. Like, I'm talking like some like six snapping neck type. I mean, maybe if I can grab it, but they come down, they come down like this. And I come up with this. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:24 That's an uppercut. Maybe you're right. I mean, do I get like a bat? If I get a bat... But they also, when they swoop down to kill their prey, they were going 99 miles per hour. No, I'm telling you, you're not to... You're delusional.
Starting point is 00:05:36 There's no way... If I have a bat or a gun... One-on-one bare hands. I'm not taking a hawk, you don't think? No. I don't know about that. Like, if you went to a hawks nest and there were baby hawks and you were around it...
Starting point is 00:05:51 There's no way a hawks fucking me up. I think it would fuck up, like... methods Like there's certain people I think the hawks fucking up Right yeah yeah But not you I don't Not one
Starting point is 00:06:17 I think I'm taking down So I guess to get back to this 50 harks 10 crocodiles Fuck that 15 wolves, no. One hunter, no. The hunter might be just annoying.
Starting point is 00:06:34 But the hunter might headshot you randomly. That's true. If he's in the arena. No, well, I think I just, I think I sick like 5,000 rats in the hunter. One-on-one with the crocodile, do you win? The crocodile would be easier than a whole. Like, what if you just kept its mouth shut and you're just... I mean...
Starting point is 00:06:53 Liver punching it. It would be hard. It would be easier to get away from crocodiles. I think you run in a zigzag. They can't computer. you zigzag so you just you would be able to get away or something like that it's something like you able to survive for an hour if i knew going into this i would research like how dumb crocodiles are and plus like if a crocodile gets you you just have to roll with it because it's
Starting point is 00:07:16 going to try to snap your neck or snap your leg off or whatever so you like if if you crocodile grabs you he's gonna if he grabs you he's he's gonna roll so he snaps i mean it's not like just a casual roll he's ripping your fucking socket out right but you have to roll with it so like I'm good there you know yeah you be good with that but the hawks though they would be hard um 50 hawks buffalo no I think the 10,000 rats seven buffalo do you're not surviving any of this if you only get two I'm not surviving I'm or I'm just I'm picturing with like if I got if I have held with the three bar like the buffalo ain't doing it. shit. Wait, how many buffalo?
Starting point is 00:08:01 Seven. Seven buffalo versus three brown bears. They're getting fucked up. What about four lions? Lions versus gorillas. I don't think so. I would rather have the guerrillas than the lions. The guerrillas
Starting point is 00:08:19 are more aggressive. I think I need to go. A lion can kill. I looked it up and it said a lion, one-on-one, a lion would probably kill the gorilla. Which is crazy to me. Which I almost don't believe. I don't believe that.
Starting point is 00:08:35 Because I feel like the guerrillas got too much. I mean, they are guerrillas. I don't know how much like technique and fighting skill they have. But like, I feel like they could literally like almost pick up a line and like wrestle it and fucking. Is this like a actual like, I've never, I've never heard this before. I haven't either until I was like, I don't know, just sitting there. I was like, wait a sec. I forgot.
Starting point is 00:09:00 I tweeted this. Let me go back in. and see what people said. And then someone responded, because someone tweeted with a picture of it. It says, you're an arena with, and then it lists the animals.
Starting point is 00:09:11 Someone responds under and said, or I said in the tweet, let's get some community questions, community questions on the podcast, recording in 10 minutes. What do you all want to know? I want you to make me think. And like someone tweets me that.
Starting point is 00:09:23 And then someone replies, replied to that. He said he wants you to make him think. You pick 10,000 rats to defend you and you win. The only debate. is what paired what to pair the rats with but that's irrelevant because 10,000 rats alone is enough to win like he just knew yeah 10,000 rats might be the way what is it's funny even he said he wants to make him think oh this was so stupid let's see let's see what else we got here
Starting point is 00:09:56 there is something else if both of you could choose anyone to bring into optic who would you choose who would you each choose and why all right you go someone replied and said aches as GM it's obvious who would I choose AX as GM it's obvious yeah
Starting point is 00:10:13 oh shit who would I bring it to if you could choose anyone but are we talking esports um with me you know what this would be good for
Starting point is 00:10:27 TikTok clips or something or because it's like this would be good if you both could choose anyone to bring into Optic is it
Starting point is 00:10:37 esports people I mean if it's anyone it's Optic Drake if we're going anyone let's just keep it if you could pick
Starting point is 00:10:50 anyone who would it be and then we'll do esports after if I could pick anyone who would it be um
Starting point is 00:11:00 to I would probably say nade shot. Anyone on planet Earth? Yeah. Nothing else is going to, if you, if you pick up, stop thinking about the fucking brand and shit.
Starting point is 00:11:16 That's the point. You're like thinking the best. That's the whole point of the question. You think, you ask you about the question. The whole point of the question is who would you want to bring an optic? Wait,
Starting point is 00:11:24 do you think nade shot being on optic would be more beneficial than Drake? Yes. One million percent. If Drake, joined Optic he would be in Canada and we would send him
Starting point is 00:11:38 optic shirts but what if he like joined the podcast that's not gonna happen what if he did what if he like did podcast you're all you're fanboying over something not even happening
Starting point is 00:11:50 you just want to talk to Drake I don't know if I'll ever be able to talk to that's fucking sad all right Nate shot is a very good pick try to think what would be beneficial as the peak amount of beneficial to Nate shot would be number one.
Starting point is 00:12:08 There you go. You can't. There, there isn't anyone else. I mean, I was thinking like people in our industry, the Mr. Beast, that would be a possible one that floats by. Dr. disrespect, if it made sense. But like. Natechot would be. Nate shot, that would be crazy. Optic.
Starting point is 00:12:29 Fuck, man. If Natechot joined Optic, I think my life actually might start to change. Like, shit would like, I don't know. Yeah, I mean, that's just a force somehow. I mean, because, I mean, if Nate joined, then, I mean, I, this is all hypothetical. If you could pick one person on planet Earth, that would be the person that would be most beneficial, in my opinion. I think you're right.
Starting point is 00:12:55 I think that's a good answer. Look at Roger walking around. More than just a... Roger walks different now. Does he? I just saw the way. he walked and it kind of like he doesn't like tippy toe around anymore
Starting point is 00:13:09 it's like now he struts with his shoulders yeah like he like I don't know I don't know how to say it but there's some umph there's some there's some umph to some pep in his step maybe he got laid I don't I think it's like maybe it is possible it is possible if because Raj would be the person
Starting point is 00:13:30 that wouldn't tell us he'd be like a George and like getting laid by a bat like someone crazy like Doja Cat was in town for a concert Optic Doja Cat I wouldn't mind Some of my first songs are crazy
Starting point is 00:13:44 I was actually listening to that I was listening to one of her songs On my stream And I was like guys like actually listen And of course like they're They're just sitting there with their headphones On listening in my chat And they're not actually fucking listening
Starting point is 00:14:01 But I'm like guys Stop You see me in my room What's the one? I'm going to say it right now. I heard from a friend of the friend and that thing is a 10 at 10. I love when we get freaky on camera.
Starting point is 00:14:17 I don't know how much we can play without losing. Internet. Internet. We got to do this. Is that a Doja got on? We have cybersex. Cybersex having cyber sex. Every section of that song is perfect.
Starting point is 00:14:35 The lyrics are perfect. the rhymes are good. They're like, they're multi. I think she's incredible. They're multi-syllables. Like, it's like, it's so, it's like a perfect song. But the question is, this might be on your, this, when you ask for flycast questions, this actually might be on there.
Starting point is 00:14:53 In order for women artists nowadays to become big, do they have to have a big butt and big boobs? Because it seems like that's the only people that are. To be big? Like, I think there is no. reason. Roy LaRae. I don't know if you know that is. Yeah,
Starting point is 00:15:09 she makes, she just made some bangers and she's tiny as fuck. But she's also not like... Does she like sexualize herself as what I'm saying? Yeah. But she doesn't, she's tiny, but she's also not on that doja cat,
Starting point is 00:15:22 Nikki Minaj, Cardi B. Like there's a trend of like that, the ones who you would actually say made it. Like if I'm on Corla Ray's level, I'm saying I made it. Of course. But like to really make it,
Starting point is 00:15:35 make it like a hexuscompanate shot kind of type make it right it seems like the only girls that have done that are like big butts big boobs right bvl so do they you gotta think about like all of them sit well i think doja cat's natural it's very possible you know someone what is it sis za what's her name sit s the s za yeah i know of her i don't know much i don't know Not no much of her stuff either. She's got big butt, big boobs. Yeah. And I didn't know that.
Starting point is 00:16:11 And I listened to her song. Her music's really good. And it's like any, it seems like any artist that comes out. It's like I spice. Huge butt. Like, uh, Megan the Stallion. Like something about it. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:25 Because like you, you look at other artists, like, the artist that I like, I like listening to that I think should be way bigger is snow the product. I think she should be. She's too like tomboyy That's what I'm I don't But like her music is really fucking good Is it?
Starting point is 00:16:43 Yes I know I've listened to her before I know she can rap She can rap And I know This Doja Cat shit I was like guys
Starting point is 00:16:55 Really listen to this I'm like how good of a fucking song is it I'm like it's so good of a song That I'm kind of mad That Doja Cat gets the praise for this Instead of like the team that she had around her that like really help put this together and it's like I was like trying to think of
Starting point is 00:17:11 an example or something but someone was like if you're gonna not give Doja Cat that credit you can't give Drake credit for anything I knew that was kind of and I instantly just like screamed I was like shut the fuck up like I fucking knew it like this was so predictable like it's not I'm like you think
Starting point is 00:17:32 I'm like I said you think Doja Cat puts more, what's the word? More, has more say in her songs, writes more lyrics in her songs than Drake and he was like, yeah, 100%. I'm like, you're trying to piss me off on you.
Starting point is 00:17:49 And I don't think he is. But, I don't, I mean, I don't know. So what someone like Doja Cat or like, someone in the pop air? It's such a good song and I think she does write her own shit. Someone in the pop industry,
Starting point is 00:18:03 you could have, you have no idea. Like with, because she. she's more pop than she is rap. It, like, like a Post Malone song, you have no clue. He could have written that on his guitar on a tour bus.
Starting point is 00:18:17 Or fucking Benny Blanco could have written it. And, like, been like, yo, what's Post's the real name? Austin. Yo, Austin, I've got a... You don't even really know. You know, like that.
Starting point is 00:18:29 You, Austin, I've got a crazy song for you that I wrote it with you in mind and gives it to him. Yeah. And now it's top five. of the chart. You have no clue how that happens. People don't realize how much something,
Starting point is 00:18:42 something like both of that shit could happen. Like he could just be playing, he could be drinking a Bud Light, playing it on his fucking couch, come up with something. He could be delivered something. It'd be like, yo, this entire song, then they could take stuff out,
Starting point is 00:18:56 add stuff in. He could just be delivered, uh, yo, peep the beginning of this. This is, like, this is the vibe for the song. And like, then they create the rest of it. of the song. It's just way different ways.
Starting point is 00:19:11 I don't know. I think I'm just like, there's many different ways to create it. And I think I'm just like so appreciative of just like excellent that I want everyone else who made this so excellent to be credited for it. Which they are technically credited. But it's like people look at this song and they're like, God, doja cat's so good. Or they just don't fucking like that. And it's like, damn, what about the other people that like, like, what if I wrote that song and Doja Cat just did all this? And I'd be like, dude, I've made a fucking banger.
Starting point is 00:19:46 That's how like, I mean, that's, imagine if like it wasn't the age of social media. We'd have no idea who Benny Blanca was. We'd have no clue who he was. And he's written so many fucking songs. Like, so many songs. Like Justin Bieber. Like a shit ton of Justin Bieber. and she were in like a bunch, a bunch of things.
Starting point is 00:20:09 Why did I get into that? What was the fucking question or whatever? I don't know. I forgot what we were talking about. Doja Cat joining Optic or something? Why do you say that? I totally forgot. I think we were talking about Doja Cat.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Like who would we bring into Optic? Yeah, and then somehow we ended up here. Nate shot would be a great addition. Nate shot, if you're listening. Nate shot returning would be like the biggest. That would be the biggest thing fucking. I mean, it's not, he owns an entire esports company, but the hypothetical question.
Starting point is 00:20:43 If I'm him, I just sell it, join back. Like, it's that easy. It's that simple. I'm sure it's that fucking simple. Let me see. Any other community questions here that stick out? We get into this. What's the biggest change in recent years
Starting point is 00:21:04 that made you think about life? more? I can tell you mine. Mine was obviously after fucking what's weird is like life is
Starting point is 00:21:21 after since rehab and I can't distract my brain with drugs anymore and it's fucking, it's kind of annoying like I'm like I don't know what's going to happen when this optic stuff stops
Starting point is 00:21:37 and I'm not in the limelight anymore and I'm just like, because I truly believe I truly believe in experimenting with shit on planet Earth. Will I ever go down a path again of completely
Starting point is 00:21:53 running myself into the fucking ground to the point where my bones hurt and I'm like in the fetal position crying on my fucking kitchen floor every night and house is fucking disgusting and there's flies and there's shit and there's, I'm using the same towel to shower for four months and everything's fucking stinks. I'm a buck 50.
Starting point is 00:22:15 Will it ever get to that point? No. But I do think about it sometimes. And that was definitely, definitely stop taking drugs was my biggest, what was the biggest change in recent years that made me think about life more because I really do. It's like all I fucking. have to do. I'm very bored now. It's hard to stimulate my
Starting point is 00:22:41 mind. I like, I don't get high off shit. Like, I'm just never focused. I never locked the fuck in. It's just a constant, like, it's almost like I'm constantly still trying to figure this out. I mean, I feel like, I feel like
Starting point is 00:22:57 a lot of us are. Yeah. I feel like, not even just. But I don't get to enjoy that fucking highs. Like, I know some fucking halo Dweeb is trying to figure it out just like me but he he takes 60 MGs and he
Starting point is 00:23:12 plays for 12 hours and feels fucking good sometimes I get a nice pump then it's like I didn't want to come to the gym but I fucking did it and I'm I've been here two hours I'm fucking tired but I'm so gonna and I'm like damn I kind of have a high going on
Starting point is 00:23:29 that'll last like five 10 minutes like it's just not the same and it just makes me think about life Not even necessarily because I'm way less sad than what I used to be. But sometimes I just like, damn, I'm just going through the motions. Same shit every fucking day. Like no. Same shit every fucking day.
Starting point is 00:23:50 And like obviously I have the free will to, if I want to go take a vacation or something. But it just, I don't know if I can enjoy that because I'm going to come back and my subscribers are going to be down. Who knows what that could fucking. stumble into I think it's like hard to even enjoy those like moments of I would love to just like
Starting point is 00:24:13 take a three day four day vacation a week somewhere that I would love to go just like drink have fun blah blah blah just truly enjoy it but I feel like it's hard to even fucking even think about enjoying that
Starting point is 00:24:28 yeah so I just do the same shit every day subcount is well like directly correlates my mood. It really does. Like right now, like we're at like a, we're like like a low. But it's because like we took we took two weeks. We took two weeks off and during those two weeks off the watch party exploded.
Starting point is 00:24:56 And you know, whenever some something in our space is exploding, everything else kind of gets puts on the puts on the back burner. That's just how it is. not even necessarily viewers but it's like there's no point of me streaming if scumps live of course and that's not Seth's fault
Starting point is 00:25:17 and the same thing happened when the flank exploded the same thing happened like we because in in modern warfare we had like what 15,000 subscribers like literally on top of the fucking world
Starting point is 00:25:30 then Cold War comes out the flank starts and like we were the only people that were really like streaming call duty and so it's funny how different your attitude probably was like you're feeling like when you're getting when you're starting your stream up is like you're this is about to be a fucking show and it's like you think of your everything's just different
Starting point is 00:25:49 the only other time we had ever taken two weeks off was during covid and when we came back from those two weeks we went on a 6,000 sub train like the highest sub train like 6,000 sub train yeah that's crazy yeah and and it was because we've been gone so long. And so this time back, Alexis was like, so how much do you think you're, because we went on a two week break. She's like, how much do you think the sub train is going to be? And I was like, to tell you the truth,
Starting point is 00:26:16 I don't think we're going to go on a sub train. I think there's going to be 700 people in chat. They're going to be like, hey, we missed you, but it's not going to be a sub train because it is all momentum based. And right now, like, so what we're doing right now is just focusing
Starting point is 00:26:31 on, on like doing series that we're going to do for our YouTube channel. because there's so much that's happening right now in Cod with with Seth crushing it with um, Zuma crushing it and then like, you know, methods and bows, uh,
Starting point is 00:26:51 and then, you know, the, whoever else is on the, on the watch party. They're being involved with the breakdown and the flank and all that stuff. Like, it seems like call of duty is kind of tapped right now.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Mm-hmm. So we kind of And like we we we recognize that And we went on like we we had a pretty good month like a couple months ago Playing Call of Duty right before like league play came out Yeah, uh I'm I'm definitely in it's super stale right now yeah Like I feel like I'm in the same boat Not even like necessarily viewer wise I have I've had less viewers and I'm like wow
Starting point is 00:27:31 I'm on a fucking 85 sub train right yeah yeah somehow it's oh 10 bomb here 10 bomb there 5 bomb it's so momentum based and it's like once that stops happening in your stream it sort of just stops happening
Starting point is 00:27:47 in your stream like once it like it's been like like I don't know it's just slowly yeah and maybe one day it'll start popping again but it's like I don't know when that time's gonna be because I'm fucking I'm overranked like I haven't played cod in like a week
Starting point is 00:28:03 Yeah. The only interest I get will be, like, watching Skumpstream. I'm sure a lot of people feel that fucking way. Yeah. And within, like, Cod. So I'm just fucking, that stales fuck to me. Halo stale was fucked to me. Like, we kind of were, like, we're going to do a bunch of watch parties this year.
Starting point is 00:28:22 Because, um, just because that's where everything was headed. We made, like, graphics. We had green screens. And we were excited about it. We did a few Rocket League ones. We did a, bunch of call duty ones. And those went pretty well.
Starting point is 00:28:36 They did, they did well. I think I saw like you saw you with like a couple thousand the Rocket League stuff. Yeah, no, those went really well. But then Seth retired. And it's like, I'm not going to do my own. There's no point, bro. I see, I'll see, I saw formals.
Starting point is 00:28:54 It's crazy. How big it is. I see formal's viewers go down when he's in like, winners finals of a Halo tournament because Seth went live. Yeah. Like, it's like people, it's such a, and good for Seth for being able to, like, put on that much of a show that people, I think people put it on their, like, big screen TV and they're doing for the day. Seth, this is when it hit me. Which we're going to have to get him here next week.
Starting point is 00:29:21 Yeah. Flycast. So, in grand finals, Seth was doing his watch party, had a hundred and twenty-five thousand viewers. and on my, I clicked my following, he's top, 123,000 viewers, and under him is XQC with 60,000. He had double the amount of viewers that XQC had, which granted, XQC is just speed running Minecraft and not doing anything special,
Starting point is 00:29:49 and Seth doing something very, very special, but it's still like, it's absurd how much like he's killing it, like absolutely crushing. He just broke the highest amount of, subs that call the duty streamers ever had second was tepee how much the tepee in like blackout 35k or yeah i had 30k god damn in like the blackout early early like pandemic war zone but like back then back then everyone had everyone was popping formal had 20 000 subs we had 17000 subs we had 17000 and subs.
Starting point is 00:30:29 Where was I? Cracked out. What year was this? What year is this? 2020? You were on mutiny years. Yeah, I didn't even. God, Halo 3 in 2020.
Starting point is 00:30:42 This fucking shit won't stay up. I keep having to fucking put my head down. Halo 3 in 2020, man. That was like peak. And I think this is the problem. I've experienced, I think, I've experienced the peak amount of dopamine your brain can receive.
Starting point is 00:31:00 it's not true what's I mean you could race the island of man the aisle of man titty dude that's a good
Starting point is 00:31:13 segue in the last I'm still gonna I'm still gonna come down here and look at the question but I mean I guess that fucking that would be
Starting point is 00:31:22 what is the feeling there so I so what is it yeah so I was on going down the YouTube rabbit hole and there was a podcast for this guy who was a reporter and he reported on this race called the Isle of Mantiti and a bunch of you guys probably know what this is. I had no idea. I had no. I had zero idea what it was. I googled it and I was like oh this shit. And it's a it's a motorbike race
Starting point is 00:31:45 um you know in between I think it's in between Ireland and the UK or something like that it says it's on an island and it's a it's a it's a it's a It's a motorbike race that's just done on the road. Just on the, think about the neighborhood you live in. If it's a paved road, it's done on a road that looks like that. And these drivers, there's like usually 80 of them. And based on this podcast clip, it's a, he said it's a 37-mile race. And they usually finish around 17 to 18 minutes.
Starting point is 00:32:26 That's crazy. That's how fast they're going. 37 miles? 37 miles. miles. I mean, just imagine like basically Frisco to Dallas. Yeah. Except it's not a straightaway. It's not a straightaway. And they finish it farther than Frisco to Dallas. Yeah, farther than Frisco to Dallas. It took me 11 hours to walk it. It took them 17 minutes to bike it. And it's, I mean, in the podcast clip, basically the guy was saying he used to report on it. And he had to stop because he was. He would take videos and pictures of all the racers before they got on their bikes because he knew he was going to have to report on one of their deaths. Because on average, two to three people die every year racing it.
Starting point is 00:33:15 Because when you're going 200 miles an hour, 180 miles an hour around bends, you either finish the race or you die. there's no like I crashed and I broke some bones like that doesn't happen and like I've never I haven't watched I mean there's there's footage everywhere of people crashing in this race I haven't I can't watch it like that but it's just I mean I can't believe it's real I can't believe a government allows that that's what I'm saying and the governing body of Apparently, like, that place was put, was, is like centered around the race. Not, not realistically, but like, it was, it's a, it's a race that's been going on for a hundred years. I didn't even know motorbikes were around that long. Like, in 1920. They're just going like 30 miles per hour. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:18 Apparently people would get, we're gathering. We're coming down to the, to the race. You're struggling over there. I don't know what I've worked this on. tight pull it tight i can't tell if i'm loosening it or like there's fucking this shit like what is this hanging in the middle oh my god you are struggling anyway the it though the motor if you guys are listening the motorbike or the the race has been around for like a hundred years and at the very beginning like people were
Starting point is 00:34:52 shocked that these bikes were going 80 miles an hour because like that's that's In the beginning? In the beginning, yeah. Like 80 miles an hour people were like gathering because they were going down roads. Just 80. And now these bikes are going like 200. Yeah. That's absolutely interesting.
Starting point is 00:35:11 It's like a two-week thing on this island where there's a bunch of different types of races. There's a sidecar race where there's a guy hanging on to the side of a side car. What? And they're going 130. down a road. He's just in the side car. He's in the side car. He has no control of whether his life is going to be fucking...
Starting point is 00:35:35 No, I don't even know the purpose of it. I don't know anything about motorbikes, though. And, dude, I just can't believe it's real. I can't believe it's real.

Starting point is 00:36:28 Back to the podcast. The guy who's in the podcast clip, I don't know either. I don't know whose podcast it was or the guy's name. But shout out to both those guys, because they got me down the rabbit hole of this, like, race. He said it's the most extreme competition on the face of the planet. When it comes to human beings, there is nothing more extreme.
Starting point is 00:36:49 If there's two to three. Nothing officially. Nothing official. If someone dies every single race they have. Multiple people die every year. Is it every race or multiple people die? Like how many races So there's like a year
Starting point is 00:37:07 There's like eight different races or something like that And does someone die every time? Not every race But every year Someone on one of the races Will die Whether it is a A spectator
Starting point is 00:37:20 Dude this The clips And they know it going into it The clips That I was watching So I was making sure to watch like Because when you watch like The official broadcast
Starting point is 00:37:32 They just recently started broadcasting it within the like the last three years and when you watch the broadcast it's kind of like watching nascar where you don't really understand or even f1 like you don't really understand with these nice ass like 120 frame cameras up in the sky you you can't really grasp how fast they're going but i i feel the same way about naskar if you watch a nascar race it's the most boring shit ever if you're there they're like flying and it's the same thing
Starting point is 00:38:08 but like when these when these bikers are going over a like if the road goes like this and then it curves a little bit they are getting airborne every time every time their whole bike
Starting point is 00:38:21 you you have a motorcycle or had RIP the bike it got stolen imagine getting airborne that would have have to be the scariest fucking feeling. At 200 miles per hour.
Starting point is 00:38:36 At 200 miles an hour. Dude, I can't believe there is some psychos though. Like how do, I'll even see TikToks of motherfuckers just like weaving in and out of traffic. And they just like, they edit it to where like it's like a calm sound. And it's like their, it's like their drug is like taking that risk of swerving in and out of traffic. I cannot. They've never been more hyper-focused in their fucking life. I cannot imagine competing.
Starting point is 00:39:08 There's a dude. There's a dude. I can't remember his name. I think it's Jeremy Dunlop. I look this up. And he's part of a family that is basically legends in this race. He's won it. I'd be pissed if I was born into that family.
Starting point is 00:39:24 Like, yo motherfuckers think I'm doing this? He's won 15 of them. His dad won a couple of them. His brother won a couple of them And his uncle won a couple of them Damn All three of them Died racing
Starting point is 00:39:39 And he is still going His dad His dad His brother, his uncle All three won They all won Isle of Mantiti races And they all three died
Starting point is 00:39:50 In motorbike accidents I feel like I'm too And he's still Is the key to life To not value it? No No Oh, these guys are not role models.
Starting point is 00:40:03 These guys are, these guys are, are, are, I have the utmost amount of respect for them. But I would never want to do what they do. Because they found their drug. They found. And they, nothing else in life. It's, I bet you for some of these racers, it's like, I'm just surviving until, Man Titi. I'm just surviving until that, until that race.
Starting point is 00:40:31 going 200 miles. And I didn't even think about it. No, even there's one guy that, that goes first. Because you're not racing, you're not racing. It's not like a,
Starting point is 00:40:43 you're not racing the person. It's like time trials. So like they'll tap a driver on the shoulder and he goes. And then 45 seconds later, they'll tap the other guy. And then he goes. So you're racing.
Starting point is 00:40:56 Everyone's going at the same time. That motherfucker's 10 miles away. He's 10 miles away by the time. 45 seconds By the time you get the tap So what I didn't even think about Is who there's a guy that races first And all the other racers don't want to go first
Starting point is 00:41:13 Because the roads haven't been cleared So birds haven't been scattered away Rabbits might still be on the road There might be a deer And there's one guy That's what he does So he's the craziest out of all of them Does he get to choose
Starting point is 00:41:31 do they choose themselves of like fuck it I'll go first some of them want to go first and some of them are like I never want to go first I wonder if they want to go first because that adds like that that adds like another rush
Starting point is 00:41:46 it's like a badge yeah it's like another it's like a badge of honor I bet you that's what it is and there's one dude that like I can't remember his name either but like they're all like yeah I don't I saw like an interview with some of the racers and they were like yeah I don't drive first like that's for this guy and they all said the same guy's name
Starting point is 00:42:04 dude they must be I wonder what they're like outside of that because it's it's like they all have families they know they know the consequences they know the imagine being married to one of the drivers imagine being married and having a kid with one of the drivers I can't imagine it I cannot imagine it like if I had a wife
Starting point is 00:42:30 if Alexis and I got married and she was like by the way once a year I love jumping down the Grand Canyon with no parachute and it's the most fun it's it's my meaning of life and you can't say I can't do it I'd be like what or multiple times a year she likes to go do that right just so you know I I love you and I love our life together but once a year I love doing this thing where if anything goes wrong, I die. Like anything. It doesn't have to be in my control.
Starting point is 00:43:09 A tire could go flat. I could hit a pothole. Is that where I'm at in life right now? No. I need to find. No. That's kind of, I notice, whenever I bought my bike, you guys were like, no. I still like that.
Starting point is 00:43:22 Yes. I stole it. I hired the guy. I would say, I would say thankfully my bike didn't. My bike went like 90 miles per. hour. Yeah. Like it was more of like a, it was an on road and an off road.
Starting point is 00:43:34 You would tell me you would get up to 45 and then like kind of. Yeah. No, dude, you get starting to ride a bike for the first time is scary. I can't imagine. I don't know. There is. I can't. I got a slight.
Starting point is 00:43:48 There's a slight feeling that I never felt before that I got with the, with my bike when I started taking it on the tollway and coming to that and drive, riding to Dallas. And I'm only getting up to 90 miles per hour. But, like, there's something, like, the bike's shaking. I'm just wearing, like, jeans and a helmet. And it's like, it's like, there's something to it, though. And I can't even imagine those who, like, completely outdo that and go 200 miles per hour on a speed bike down a regular road.
Starting point is 00:44:26 And, like, and it's a weird thing because usually, like, it, I don't think that something like that could never. It could never exist in America. No, our government wouldn't allow it. And I think that's, it's in the same thing applies to a lot of places. What is that feeling? But like,
Starting point is 00:44:47 it's almost like, it's like a weird, like, I don't know anything about this race besides what I've learned in the last week. But like, it's almost this feeling of like, whole,
Starting point is 00:44:57 like, not wholesome, but like, it gives, while I was watching it, while I was listening to the racers talk, about it. It's like this overwhelming, I can't really like explain it. Like this feeling of like, I am so glad that they have that. Because if they didn't, I am glad that they have it.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Because it takes a certain amount of crazy. Like, not a certain amount. An obscene amount of crazy in order to even want to do this. Like, I bet you there, I bet you like there are dirt bike racers and and, you know, X Games gold medalists and, and NASCAR drivers, F1 drivers, that know about this race. And they're like, they're crazy. Maybe that's. And that has to be the, that's, I can't believe. That's the craziest part of it all. I can't believe it's real.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Like, I can't believe it's real. And it's kind of cool that it does happen. It has to exist. Like, in the gladiator times, they would fight to the death. And they would sign. up to fight to the death. And it makes sense... I think something like that's always going to exist.
Starting point is 00:46:08 It makes sense that that doesn't... That's not allowed anymore. I'm sure it still happens, like underground shit. I'm sure that still happens, but like... It makes sense that that doesn't happen anymore because that's ridiculous. But like... That's just... That's why I'm...
Starting point is 00:46:24 That's why this... I don't know. I don't know how to feel about it. It's what I'm saying is there's a feeling out there that I'm missing and I need to find it. But it's not that. It's probably not going to be that. It's definitely not that.
Starting point is 00:46:38 I do value, I need to find something I'm, like, scared of or something that, like, gets me going. Yeah. And I don't. I'm so routine. Not that I'm, like, not that I'm at a point where it's like, what's the point of life? But it's kind of like, damn, man, I do the same shit every fucking day. Like, I'm not sad. Like, I'm actually in, like, pretty good place.
Starting point is 00:47:04 It's like kind of weird how like I've been less anxious, less depressed. But since I'm, when I'm anxious and depressed, it's like sort of an overwhelming feeling. And I like kind of feel, like I feel, almost like I feel something because I'm overwhelmed and I'm just anxious and I'm always uncomfortable and I can't sleep. And I'm like always in my fucking head. But then when I'm at a point now to where I'm like, I'm pretty semi-comfrey. I'm not comfortable to where I'm at because I still got shit to do. But it's like sort of doing the same shit every day.
Starting point is 00:47:44 I'm not too anxious right now. I think my diet has really helped with that. The exercise has really helped with that. I think getting off my medication has really helped with that. I'm not as anxious. I'm not as depressed. But I'm way, I'm very content is not the worst. but just every it's a very my my life right now seems very mundane and it is especially because
Starting point is 00:48:13 I'm doing this challenge like streaming them wake up cardio even though I didn't do it this morning I'll have to do it this evening most days it's wake up cardio stream or do some kind of video podcast and then stream I mean you didn't get any any any dopamine from seeing the your before and after pictures I did a little bit yeah I mean I That's why I kind of did. I was on it. And I got some dopamine from hitting 225 on the bench. Now I'm reping that shit three times.
Starting point is 00:48:44 That's fucking dope. That's fucking insane. That's sick. I used to look at people. I love that shit. I used to look at people because like 225 is like the marker. It's like, okay, you work out now if you're hitting 225. Like two plates.
Starting point is 00:48:57 Because I used to. Fuck that. I used to go to the gym back in the like scuff house days and stuff. I'd never hit that. I think the most I, the most I, the most I ever put. on a bar, I think, was 205, and I did that for one. And I think that was the strongest I've ever, that was the strongest I had ever been up until that point.
Starting point is 00:49:18 It's like maybe I'd touch 185, but mostly it was like 135, 145. And I was just like doing it to try to convince myself like, all right, I'm going to be in the, but then eventually I quit. But to be able to finally hit 225 and it's like, I just put 225 on the bar. I did it easy. I was like, damn, that was kind of easy.
Starting point is 00:49:36 Like later this week, I'm going to try it again. Then that was Friday or Saturday or something. And then I did it for three times. That sort of gave me something. That's just, I'm looking for shit. And today I'm going to squat. And I think I'm going to go fucking heavy. You're going to go hard?
Starting point is 00:49:53 I think I'm going to go heavy. Like, I went to the gym with Stellar, actually. Really? You know, he lives here now with Flames Sword? Yeah. So weird. I went to the gym with Stellar. and we hit legs and he's kind of fucking strong like he's he's almost like what mike used to be
Starting point is 00:50:12 last i last i saw him he looked like he yeah he just fucking like we were doing he's been i think he's been working out more consistently and longer than me but he's also fucking 50 pounds less so it's like we were doing the same weight and i think i'm even like a little stronger than which like kind of surprised me i mean i'm fucking i should be because i'm heavier but he just has way more time in the gym than me. But like, we were throwing up some weight. I think I was squatting like 245, did like one or two reps. I think today I'm going to try like 245, 255.
Starting point is 00:50:45 I don't want to hurt myself, but it's like now I'm at the point where I know where my peak is. And it's sort of, I just know if I keep breaking these peaks of the weight that I can do, it's called progressive overload where you just, if you keep getting stronger, that's you building muscle. Yeah. So that's kind of the only. thing that's been doing it for me lately. Like besides that, man, it's the same. And I know fucking everyone listen to this.
Starting point is 00:51:11 Like, everyone can probably, 99% of people probably listening to this feel the same where. And I do, I respect the people that, like, relate, that relate and they don't compare. Because there's a bunch of people that feel this way. But there's a bunch of people that feel that way. And then they're like, if I was in your shoes, I wouldn't feel that way. You get to play video games. It's like, yeah, like, I'm very blessed to be in the position I'm in.
Starting point is 00:51:34 but like I promise you everyone that's in this position has felt this way. Everyone. Everyone. Like when you, it's not because they play video games they're doing it with their friends or something.
Starting point is 00:51:46 They might be cracked on a fucking 30. Like it's when I was when I was playing video games for 72 hours straight, I was not streaming. It was not exhausting. It was not talking to chat nonstop. It's like these motherfuckers will game. And they'll be like, dude,
Starting point is 00:52:02 you fucking what, you stream for six hours or you played video games for six hours oh but it's like dude it's not like that it's a constant stress it's like you're trying to be entertaining you're trying to be a louder personality you're talking louder you're reading content like it's not just sitting there playing fucking video games being a streamer and do that since fucking do this nonstop since like 2003 to where you would travel for it to where you would play when you didn't want to play you were forced to play like competing and all this other shit or do random tournaments and it just it really does turn into sort of a job and a lot of people have done i think a pretty
Starting point is 00:52:46 good they've done pretty good at still sort of enjoying it but i mean i still enjoy i still enjoy it i enjoyed at times like when ranked play came out i enjoyed it well i i enjoy i enjoy the entertainment part and the community building part that's my favorite part yeah i don't enjoy the games anymore I mean, I'll play them for the, I play them for the story and for the, whatever challenge and for like the, I guess the common content of like what we're doing, where like I enjoy the community building more than anything. And I feel like that's where streaming, that's where streaming is gone. Where does it go from?
Starting point is 00:53:26 Even, even, of course, a lot of people would rather be in our position. But even in their position, I'm saying this. This is like, it's a little stale right now. I come from Halo. I'm not, I was never big in the cod scene. Yeah. So I don't have that entire cod fan base. I don't, ranked was fun for a little bit.
Starting point is 00:53:50 So it's like there's at times where it's going to be fun, but then I get sort of stale. And I'm like, my day, it just seems like my days are so repetitive. And it's like where, what's next? what is up for me what is up for you what is up for those listening at home who are working their job they're waking up whatever the fuck you do in the morning waking up going to their job coming home and then what make a meal do you sit there and play video games and just wake up the next day and do the same shit over and over are you like trying to tap into something else and and grow from there fucking start cutting custom wood and selling it on eBay. Like, what? Is there another fucking adventure?
Starting point is 00:54:43 That's what I'm trying to start with the fitness stuff, but it's like, it's still very repetitive. Do you have hobbies and shit? No. No? The gym. See, I have hobbies like that I get really into. And one thing that, like, Alexis and I, like, battle about is every time she gets into something,
Starting point is 00:55:04 she's like how can I make a business out of this and I'm like stop thinking that way like just like right now I'm still like super into poker and I'm not like thinking of how to make that a business I'm not thinking about how to wake up and do content and surrounding it
Starting point is 00:55:21 or what about go play? I mean I would be super interested in playing like would you play at one of the boatette the Alex's I mean no I don't have like the bank roll for any of that like if wait you're not just down to put down 50k and no yeah same
Starting point is 00:55:38 I'm gonna tell Alex let me borrow some yeah I'm sure I'm sure she should be down might somehow no probably not no no I mean for but like doing like a like a
Starting point is 00:55:52 like a low stakes like thing just to play because I like the idea what would be a good videos if we did it if the opt I would love to made it official cameras in the inside I would love to do that mic up Raj and I would love to even talking about that. It's just a lot of
Starting point is 00:56:06 a lot of sponsors like aren't going to touch anything that's even remote remotely like similar to gambling, especially in Texas. Really? Yeah. Like a lot of the companies we're talking to. When we pitch the idea they're like, I love that idea but also like no, that's not going to
Starting point is 00:56:22 ever happen. Can't do that. Yeah. That's your hobby right now? Well, my hobby is learning about it. Like trying to learn like what, man. What are you fucking learning? I mean, there's like an insane strategy. You're counting cards. Oh my God. You can't count cards in
Starting point is 00:56:38 poker. Can you not? No. What's that for? Blackjack? Blackjack, yeah. You can count cards in blackjack. Which is, that's really fun to look at. I used to be really interested in those type of movies. Like counting cards. Like Toronto. A casino and shit like that. Yeah. That's always, I mean, there's a guy actually on YouTube that
Starting point is 00:57:00 he used to be, he was a street magician. And then he just randomly was like, I'm gonna learn how to count cards, like went to, went to Vegas. Oh, I think I fucking. And like took a class,
Starting point is 00:57:11 took a course on how to count cards and is now a card counter, a blackjack card counter. And he was like, David Blaine? Maybe I'm thinking of someone else. David Blaine might have, but maybe not.
Starting point is 00:57:24 But I have heard of a magician. Really? Well, it wasn't it. I can't remember the guy's name, but he's from, he's from London. And went to Vegas, learned how,
Starting point is 00:57:34 to count cards and then like went on like that like vlog himself like going on a journey throughout all of the casinos in like basically the Midwest like went to went everywhere and then um like vlog his experience on like how often he got kicked out of casinos which was pretty much every casino every casino he went to how they can tell because apparently how to count cards is you keep You keep a count in your mind on what cards have already been played. My mind blanks the fuck out. I couldn't, I'd have to write it down. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:11 They were not going to let you do that. So, like, you have to keep a count on, like, what cards have come out that are high cards and what cards have come out that are low cards and then you, like, keep a running count in your head. So what you're doing, if the count in your head is high, you bet small. And if the count is low, you bet a lot. And so it's something like. that. It's not, it might not be people who are,
Starting point is 00:58:35 can actually count are like cringing right now, but, or people who can't count are like, wait, really? But basically, like, if there's a running count in your head, if the count is high or whatever, you bet a lot. So if, if you're monitoring somebody playing in the dealers, it's the dealer's job
Starting point is 00:58:52 to tell the pit boss like, you know, this guy is playing $20 a hand sometimes and $3,000 a hand sometimes. Like, that's really weird. shouldn't be doing that. So they'll tell their pit boss and the pit boss will tell the people that are monitoring them and then they'll be watching them and then somebody even it what's what was surprising to me.
Starting point is 00:59:14 So that, but you keep the money. Yeah, you get to keep the money. They just like get the fuck out of it. They just, they just come up to you and it's it's crazy. His vlog experience, it's crazy to see like the difference between casinos. Because some casinos would come up and they'll be like, hey, I know you know what's coming. And he's like, yeah, I do. And they're like, you can do anything else here.
Starting point is 00:59:33 can't play blackjack and then some people will be like get the fuck out of here like it's it's really great but but legally they can't they can't kick you out they will just say you can play any other game but you can't play blackjack they can't kick you out though
Starting point is 00:59:48 no but they can ban you from the casinos they can ban you they can ban you but what do you how to if they they can ban you if they're saying get the fuck out but you're like you can't kick me out like well yeah but some of them are just like what are you do call the cops like get out.
Starting point is 01:00:06 And like some people, some will like, some will like refuse to cash out their chips. And it's just, it just depends on what casino you go to. But I, I thought that was super interesting. That's why. I think it's interesting that like when it comes to,
Starting point is 01:00:22 to gambling, which I'm not trying to glorify gambling, because I think that's a pretty big deal right now. But I think, I think it's cool when people can become professional. at a game that seems like a chance game. They're a professional blackjack players. Yeah, fucking Alex Botas.
Starting point is 01:00:42 People that go around and they play blackjack professionally for a living. There are people that do that in poker. There's no professional slots spinners out there. Or are there. There probably is a few. There's no way there are. Like they understand. Like they look at the top jackpot and they know it's about to hit.
Starting point is 01:01:03 They've studied that manufacturer. There's no way. That machine. I'm going to look it up. Are there professional slots spinners? I've always, I used to, I used to when I get into poker. And I've always been interested in, like, counting cards and shit. But every time I go to a casino, I just fucking lose.
Starting point is 01:01:24 Heavy losses. Never even close to winning. A heavy loss every time. 100% no winnings I'm negative I'm pissed I leave
Starting point is 01:01:39 haven't been back since yeah which is when are you gonna start going to casinos I have to stay away from them what are you you're just like
Starting point is 01:01:50 your hobby is like learning about it well I mean I play I play like online and stuff like just to learn with a VPN um is illegal no
Starting point is 01:02:02 Well, I play with play money sometimes. I'm trying to think what I can actually say. But it's not like, it's nothing, it's nothing like detrimental. It's like, I'll, like, if I play with money. You're fucking, we don't know, but you're dead. You're, you've been really bad down, like down bad. Like I see you stop streaming and stuff. No.
Starting point is 01:02:24 It's, that's what I like about poker is like, poker is like, poker is your, it's like a battle. Like, your battle. against other people. It's not like I put 1500 on black. I put 1500 on black and I really hope it hits. Like it's not, it's not that.
Starting point is 01:02:43 There are people that have been playing poker professionally for 30 years. Like that, and they've won multiple championships. Yeah. And they've won. There is a skill. They've won like millions of dollars playing.
Starting point is 01:02:56 And it's like that. So that, that just proves that there is skill to it. And I, I think it's, I think it's, I don't know, I just, I think it's really cool. What you're saying is I need a hobby. But what, I don't, I'm not saying go gamble.
Starting point is 01:03:09 I'm saying find a hobby that you're interested in learning about. Because I'm learning about like some things right now. I think I'm, my hobby right now would definitely be like fitness shit. But it's like what? I don't know, man. Like, I know, I know some people listening, you can relate like, it doesn't seem like I'm interested in shit. Yeah. I don't know, man
Starting point is 01:03:33 I've just been going through the motions Yeah It happens It does But I think If you're ever feeling that way Just what like How I think about it is like
Starting point is 01:03:46 If I'm ever like dude What am I doing? Like I can't like I'm not being productive I'm not doing anything And then I'll look at myself in the mirror And I'll be like actually you know what I've gone four months Almost five months
Starting point is 01:03:59 being a fucking vegan. Like I'm fucking doing something. And like you can you can relate too because I've worked out twice a day. Twice a day for fucking 35 days. That's dope. With eating clean as fuck. That is dope. And it's crazy.
Starting point is 01:04:16 It is dope. And it's that it's that the you climb the ladder and people who are have a hundred million dollars in their bank feel this way. 100% They're just sitting there like fuck I think it all has to do with like What do I do now? I feel like it has to do a challenging yourself
Starting point is 01:04:34 Like that's the only way To like that's what makes me That's what makes me happy challenging myself I think I'm figuring that out too The fucking the walk down here I can't tell you It's so stupid and it's silly
Starting point is 01:04:48 And I did it as a joke And I walked 30 fucking miles And it's dumb But the sense of accomplishment I got off of that dumb little walk is I've been chasing it ever since Just like I might have to try to figure out something to match you
Starting point is 01:05:07 I'm waiting until the video drops I just I I I did the record the final recording today At 5 a.m. Do you know when you're going to drop it? True's working on it right now I'm getting the thumbnail today So damn yeah I'm excited to see I'm excited I'm excited I'm excited You drop it
Starting point is 01:05:26 It's gonna be a new it's gonna be a type of content I've never made before like very fast pace very like it's gonna be like a lot I mean it's a 10 it was a 10 hour fucking sash yeah so chop it yeah gonna be good I'm excited to see it my chat always tells me like maniac what are you gonna do to
Starting point is 01:05:45 like first off why is it fucking me maniac get in the boxing ring maniac fucking are you gonna you gotta out do hitch maniac I don't have a third example but I might maybe I thought of I was thinking of ideas and I was like hmm what if I worked out for 24 hours
Starting point is 01:06:06 like stayed in a gym ate all my meals like something like something like yeah something how do I how do I but I'm like I think it's cool like what these I mean the creator clash events and like these boxing events
Starting point is 01:06:18 I think they're cool just because of the sense of purpose that it gives those people that are competing for that amount of time Like you see like No one ever goes there and fights And then they're like Yeah I just like fought last weekend Like they're like I have been working
Starting point is 01:06:35 Every day multiple and even if they go on there And get their ass beat no one's gonna clown them Like Maybe I mean we don't pay attention to the inner circles Maybe maybe somebody will clown them But like Like
Starting point is 01:06:50 I mean These people that are playing It takes some balls Yeah it takes balls It takes balls It takes up And it's not just like balls. Because there's probably a lot of dumb fucks that would just get in there and fight,
Starting point is 01:07:01 but it's like for the training and it's every day and it's what you eat. And it's do the cardio and it's jump the rope and it's run the miles and it's not get injured. And it's get punched in the face. And there's a lot. It's a lot that goes into it. I think I would be interested in doing something like that. Yeah. I'm interested in doing it.
Starting point is 01:07:21 My fucking. Right now my ankle is. Yeah. I feel like right now I have to, I don't have the fucking TikToker, multi-million dollar Fortnite winning, fucking rich boxer money. You could for sure still get into one of those.
Starting point is 01:07:39 I know, but I think I could get into them just because of the optic name, but it's like the amount of dedication I'm about to like give it. It's like, I don't know if it's like worth the... I guess it just depends if the money is right.
Starting point is 01:07:54 If the money was right, yeah. If they said We'll give you 50K You got Three months I'd like all right Yeah I would do that
Starting point is 01:08:06 But if it's like 5k Yo You get 7.5K for showing up And it's like dude I got a dead it Like I would I'm in a spot right now It also depends on who you fight
Starting point is 01:08:16 Yeah Like I'd fight Mr. Bees for free Yeah Like I'm not like I'm not fighting Zen Fays Sense Yes
Starting point is 01:08:24 The fucking ex-MMA martial artists just to get them a fucking dub yeah I'm not getting no free dubs dedicate dedicate three months of my time get like $7,500 just the
Starting point is 01:08:38 so it would have to make sense but also because like right now in my life I feel like it's a crucial time for me to be building something and I feel like I am building something like I want to do this fitness stuff I'm really into fitness
Starting point is 01:08:52 I've always been into fitness and I feel like I'm pretty knowledgeable of course the whole depression anxiety mental health like the community that i'm in in the gaming community i want to like help people get out of these fucking ruts start hating lifeless get into just start and try to help people live a healthier life and that's where my focus is and i would need i want to sort of build build something that's mine around that like build sort of a business around that whether it's like programs or i don't know just get something going with it it's going to take time i think i feel like i'm going to figure out but it's like that's genuinely where like my heart is
Starting point is 01:09:34 and what i want to do so for something like a boxing right now it just doesn't it would just it would just have to make sense uh it would just have to totally be worth it so not counting it out maybe one day but right now we're on day I think it's day 36 fuck that you're getting there bro you're getting there that's just gonna be
Starting point is 01:10:00 I woke up this morning and Michelle was like damn you look good and I was like sorry cheese yeah the first time Alexis saw me in a while like ever since like changing my diet
Starting point is 01:10:11 she was like wow and I was like fuck what you mean wow like I'm in this bitch am I am I Still fucking work to be done with what I want my end result. Like I'm going to have to, I'm going to go past these 60 days. I'm going to end the challenge thing at 60 days, but there's still going to be more that I need to do.
Starting point is 01:10:31 And like, this is just going to be a lifestyle at this point. We have to, before you make the video, I will let just let me know. Let's, let's like talk about the video because I want that video to be fucking good. Yeah, same. Like, I'm going to, like, we're going to put everything together. I talked about this last time, and I felt kind of bad. We talked about, like, or I talked about, like, editing it, you know, someone being, someone being able to do, like, animated, I don't know.
Starting point is 01:10:59 Yeah. But it's like if, like, if I give clips to some amazing fucking animation editor who, like, they can make something out of nothing. And that's what, like, so I don't have the ideas in my head. But I saw, I saw someone tweet me like, yo, my people can vouch, but been a fan for a while. and it's like some editor. I was like, okay, I'm like, check his shit out. But then he like tweeted at me and I was like, damn, what if like Lando saw this?
Starting point is 01:11:24 But he'd think I'm like saying like he's bad or it's like. I'm talking like a, you know what I mean. Like I'm talking like a. People know what you mean. I feel like if I went to true and was like, I mean, I might even do it for this walking video. It's like, yo, you put your spin on it and then we'll send the whole thing to an after effects. person or a person who specializes in making subtitles that the subtitles that pop out you know what i mean and then we'll just make it like some kind of animation fucking brings out my way
Starting point is 01:11:58 like i'm spinning i fucking just some some kind of like animated i don't even know the fucking words to use with this but like yeah have them i'm i have him put it together i'm not i'm gonna try not to rush it i would like once it's over to be out within like two weeks but like we're going to have the storyline pretty much put together i'm going to be having saving extra clips roger randomly hit me up sent me like old clips from like the therapy and the fucking that's dope yeah i was like fuck yeah i don't know why you randomly sent me this but hell yeah um you're going to include some of that so we're just going to have a big probably two hour long file and then yeah i definitely want like i want you to see it roger and all these like all these guys
Starting point is 01:12:46 give your opinions. What can we do? For sure. But it's gonna be dope. It's fun. It is daunting though. And don't let that. Because it took me forever.
Starting point is 01:12:54 It's stressful. It took me forever to write. I'm just stressed about it every day. The 100 hours of a Valerant script, it took me forever to write it. Like the video, we finished 100 hours of Valerant and the video didn't come out for four months. Really? Yeah. But it still did really well.
Starting point is 01:13:10 It's like 600,000 views. It still did really, really well, but it took me. because it's very daunting task. It's 100 hours of footage for three POVs, like three different people. So like 300 hours of footage, it's hard to go through. It's hard to write a story about it.
Starting point is 01:13:28 But like, you can for sure do it. Yeah, I definitely stress just about it. Like at the beginning, I was like, damn, I want this to go viral.
Starting point is 01:13:37 I want this to be one of those videos. Now I'm just like, I just wanted to at least be, to whether it gets, like I pray it just doesn't hit like a 20, 5k. Right, yeah, yeah. But if it hits like an 80k, but the video's amazing, then I'm like super proud of it.
Starting point is 01:13:53 Like I won't feel too bad, but I would like for it to bang. But at the end of the day, as long as the video, at the end of the day, I fucking did it. Right. And also at the end of the day, if it's just, I made it a good video. It felt like I did the best I could. It's all we can add. That's how I feel about the vegan shit. It's like, I, I, once I, once I, once I,
Starting point is 01:14:17 It's January 1st and I finally have a piece of chicken. I'm gonna be like, you know, even if the video doesn't do well, I fucking did it. I did it. Because even right now I'm like, like, of course the video first starts off. I'm grabbing my camera, recording little shit. But then I'm like, I got 60 days of this. How much am I actually going to, this is too much footage. So now I'm like thinking of, God, dude, we, I, me and Lando, we have not like,
Starting point is 01:14:49 like planned out specifically enough of different timeframes with different shots, different activities, different shit. And it's almost like, I just hope at the end it all comes together. So it's like, I don't know, I'm stressed. Like, the more and more it went on. I'm like, I do the same shit every day. What am I going to record? So it is stressful. But. Well, you got to think, like, all you have to do is fill eight minutes of, of quick, fast-paced stuff. Like, you You don't want to, I mean, unless you said you might be doing it. You don't want to bore the fuck out. Right.
Starting point is 01:15:23 Like, and then for the next 20 days, I pretty much did it, but at day 20, you know, whatever. You'll figure it. You'll be fine. It should, it'll do, it'll do well. All right. All right, guys. It's been episode 698. Down in the comments.
