Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the group chat podcast episode.
Great, girl, everybody.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome back to the group chat podcast episode number 173.
173.
Yeah, we just recorded like 20 minutes of this.
No, I think it was like 10.
It was 10 minutes.
It was definitely just 10 minutes.
Thank fucking God, dude.
Yeah, we were set to the record a podcast on the road.
So the things that we got, we had for it were set up for that, and I had to reverse
I forgot a few things that, yeah.
Yeah, we realized on the road trip
that there's no room to do it, bro.
There's no room.
There's no room. But, you know what there is room for,
saving money using code group for 10% off
with your gamer subs order.
Wow.
And that's on God.
Facts.
That is on God.
That is on God.
I probably remember exactly what I said.
Yeah, let's try and redo it as we can.
Grunk, you know, before we get into the,
grunk, before the group
spoils the awesome secret about us driving across the country,
we want to hear about you.
Have you been doing?
I start school tomorrow.
Hey, you're taking my role.
Oh, sorry.
Yeah, so classes start again tomorrow.
Oh, dude.
My final year of college, which is crazy.
And I started working at Wegmans again today.
Can I ask you a question?
What is it?
Wait, wait, hold it.
Do you have Josh Allen cereal?
Wait, grunk, why do you still work at Wegman's?
Yes, we have, I don't know if we have Josh Allen's cereal.
Oh, V-Chash, sending me that text.
Do you have Josh Alios?
And, um, what did you say?
You keep going back to Wegman?
Why do you work at Wegmans?
Yeah, do you like it?
Mainly because my dad, I mean, I'm pretty much indifferent.
Okay, we have to, okay, listen, listeners at home.
Sorry, we're just, we're remembering everything.
We're trying to say it verbatim how we did it.
This is, if you guys remember, I was actually looking,
you remember our, like, funniest podcast ever, like, four years ago?
Been downhill over since.
Yeah, I remember that to this day.
Yeah, where we couldn't stop laughing.
Yeah, and it was the same situation.
We had to re-record that podcast two or three times.
Yep.
And it's just, oh, yeah.
Okay, I do it.
We have clips of that, the reruns.
Yeah.
That's really good.
I don't remember how the fuck,
what we said or what.
Dude, that was like prime podcast.
You just fucking laugh at everything.
Like,
we don't even talk about anything.
It's so funny.
I think it's so good.
But, uh, okay, so you say your dad
makes you work at Wegmans.
Yeah, he said, yeah, I think so.
He's like, just don't leave your job or something.
Yeah.
That's fair.
And it's really, um, this,
this final year of college is going to be a very, uh, very, uh,
Turning point.
Yeah.
Yeah, dude.
That's sick.
You should take the bar example.
Yeah, I will.
Yeah.
Okay, so I'm getting stared at by Isaac Luchador number one over here to my right.
He comes from Mexico.
He doesn't speak until we talk about Mexico.
Yeah.
And I was showing his gooch through his shorts, I guess.
Oh, there's a hole in his shorts.
Dude.
So, Larry was talking about the.
the podcast and how he had recording settings wrong and stuff like that.
Yeah. So we had to redo the podcast because the settings were wrong, but long story short,
and actually it's going to be a long story. Probably the entire cast.
The whole story. I love that saying long story short because it's never. Never, never.
Yeah, so long story short, day one. Yeah, no. So we went and did a road trip around the
United States of Texas because Tanner saw a funny picture. Yeah, saw it sweet. Texas looks really
dumb and we just wanted to drive around it for the hell of it for the hal of it yeah yeah you saw a
tweet you posted it and uh i guess for some fucking reason we locked in on that and we did it and to be
quite honest with you i it's kind of surreal you know what philip said he said that was the best
idea anybody's ever ever yeah ever wow he says i'm an idea machine but he's it is a good
idea it is a good idea okay this is not me saying it's not but my
My God, does he have a way of, like...
We'll talk about it.
Yeah, we'll talk about it.
So, exaggerating.
First day, we'll just, we'll address the fact that all of us didn't sleep.
I mean, Isaac got a few hours of sleep.
Isaac was the designated driver for us in the morning.
Yes.
So I didn't even get any sleep until we got in the car.
We left at 4 o'clock in morning, or was it like a little after.
Yeah, it was a, it was that.
No, we actually left at 5.
Oh, we did leave at 5.
Yeah, because it took a while to pack up.
Yeah, that's true.
So we did live it last 5.
I remember the exact time.
5-02.
Wow.
Dude,
my memory is on point.
Because then you fell asleep.
No,
I fell asleep an hour and a half into it.
No,
because he saw a photo.
Yep.
Oh,
I'm getting a doo.
How come I ever seen this photo?
I don't know.
He's the one that sent it.
Yeah, he did send it.
Isaac sent it.
Yeah.
We were all sleeping.
It was on the road.
It was on the first drive.
This was like the first leg of the drive.
And to be honest,
this didn't even count because we're in Austin.
We had to drive all the way to Port Arthur.
which is like the poopiest, shittiest beach I've ever been to.
And that says something because New Jersey's got some pretty bad beaches.
I didn't expect it to be that.
There was like Cheetos bags from the 1980s laying on the beach.
There were vintage Cheeto bags.
Vintage.
Vintage.
Yeah.
And there was like poo water because we're by the bayou.
We're in a swamp.
So we're out.
We're by Louisiana.
Yeah.
What was that by Louisiana?
And it was swampy and it was muddy.
And the sand was like hard and real like.
There was a chair.
There was a chair.
I got a picture of Isaac.
He's sitting in.
It was like falling apart,
but it was like looking out into the water.
Oh,
I took a pick of him.
Yeah,
that was fire.
Which, by the way,
the Gulf of America,
what the fuck?
Like,
I actually didn't know that
that was like a real like change.
Oh,
yeah.
It actually went through.
Yeah.
That actually happened.
Did you know that ground?
Oh, that's true.
Yeah.
The Gulf of America.
So we're looking at the Gulf of America.
We're looking at the Gulf.
But that was the first shitty stop.
That was terrible.
That was like,
I slept for five hours,
woke up.
was met with the crappiest place
I want to say real quick
the first half is crappy
the second half does get better
it got so good it got so good dude
it was 60% shit
no uh oh
yeah 60% shit the last two days
are the good ones
yeah yeah when we
is that math even right
I don't even know what that math right
I liked every single bit of me
actually no yeah I liked it too
you probably have a worse
experience because we have to camp
you don't like camping
okay yeah so we'll get to it
I guess so we started to Port Arthur
we had to
All the way up to Texarkana.
Texarkana, that's top right-ish.
Top-right right.
Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana.
Yes.
Yep.
Bingo.
I actually didn't mind Texarkana.
It's all right.
It's got like trees and such.
I look he really need to throw in my laundry because we have a schedule here and I just remembered and this is it.
This is the only time I have.
Go, man.
We'll just keep talking.
It's going to be packed.
You're good.
Don't worry.
I'll be right.
Run, kid!
Yeah, this is like the really crappy boring part before we talk.
Before we talk about getting to Mexico.
Yeah.
Before we get that.
You often.
in, by the way, Isaac. You could talk at any point in time.
Yeah, I don't even know what, like, made you decide
to do this day. He's asleep right now, I feel like.
He might be. Yeah, so after
Isaac Y drove for 15 hours,
dude, this is actually the craziest thing,
okay? And I know this is about to get clipped
because I can already
read the short now about
soft willy talks about data centers.
Bro. Oh, God.
So the first day that we
get, we were driving from
Port Arthur to
Texarkana, and then we had to drive to
Childress.
which is
West.
It's like right where the top hat
starts on the right side of Texas.
Yep.
So we are opting in to go
and get like a hotel or anything.
We're calling around
every single fucking place
doesn't,
they're all,
there's zero vacants,
or zero,
we've called,
we called 10 hotels at least.
More than that.
More than that.
More than that.
And we stopped in two other ones.
In surrounding towns.
In surrounding towns.
We had a whole list of hotels
that we got recommended
and we called every single one.
All,
were booked out. They were all booked out. We went to a few in person and yeah, just completely like parking lots were fucking filled.
Zero, zero rooms. They were all booked out. And it's because there are new data centers being built. And all of the construction workers, the contract workers are all in those fucking hotels.
Yeah. They employed 4,000 per thousand people per data center in those small-ass towns that have not a lot of capacity.
dude, devil, small.
We're talking small.
Like, god damn.
Like, damn small.
And so we had to find out, like, there was a town neighboring that was closer up north called Shamrock, which is very, like, you know, Irish, I guess.
I don't know, dude.
They had a lot of leprechaun, you know, sort of.
Those Irish, like, in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
It was called the Irish Inn.
Yeah.
And so they had a lot of, like, you know, four-le-floor stuff.
They had a lot of, just a lot of that vibe, right?
and we had to stay there, and that's where the guy told us about, like, the 4,000 employee shit,
and we had to find, well, the place that we found only had two more rooms, which is what we needed.
Right.
What do you doing over there?
Dude, he just wants us to say we went to Mexico.
We went to Mexico.
We went to Mexico.
Yeah, that was like halfway towards the trip.
Okay, anyway, I'm sorry, just Isaac staring at me right now for the listeners.
But, yeah, we went and called so many different hotels.
None of them had any sort of openings at all.
Yep.
And that was like a real time like, yeah, sure, like data centers are killing the environment for sure.
But bro, you literally could not for probably 50 miles find anywhere to go and sleep.
Yeah.
Yeah.
All the hotels were booked.
And we were pissed because at this point it was either you sleep in the fucking van or we go camp early, one day early.
I thought we were going to have to sleep in the van.
Yeah, me too.
I was already going back to bed.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And so we ended up getting lucky.
we found two rooms available in children's i'm pretty sure right yeah or was it before children's
no we think it was after it was it was i think we had to leave after we had to go through children we had to
go through children yeah yeah and so and that was on our way to fall it which is at the very top right
of texas so uh we ended up staying the night there and keep in mind for me personally
bro, the food situation on this road trip.
I mean, you stuck through it though, you stuck through it.
I'm talking about you guys.
Oh, what?
Okay.
So obviously, I'm doing my great lock-in.
I've been vlogging my entire journey of losing weight and all that shit.
And so we are at this point, we finally found a hotel, grunk to catch you up.
We finally found a hotel because all the other hotels were booked due to AI data centers.
All the fucking contractors sleeping at them.
Yeah, 4,000 workers per day.
They're taking our beds, bro.
We literally couldn't find a single spot.
They're building them.
They're building data centers, and so to sleep, because they have to go to bed, they stayed at those places.
Yeah, they don't.
Yeah, true.
Yeah.
Well, so, yeah, Claude was in one room, and then GPT was another, and GROC was in.
Deep Seek.
Where was Deep Seek?
Deep Seek was somewhere in the ocean.
Deep Seek was working.
Gemini was in the Super 8.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Dude, we passed a Super 8 and I was like, can we just stay at the Super 8?
Nobody wanted to stay at the Super 8.
And nobody wanted subway.
Like, what's going on?
Okay, subway.
There was a time where I was driving and when I was driving, I tried pulling into like one of the places to go get a hotel.
I pulled into the wrong, remember I pulled to the wrong parking lot and that I drove over the curb.
Oh, yeah.
You were ready to go to sleep.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And everyone got mad at me for that.
But so, yeah, we ended up sleeping through the night, but grunk, you need to hear this food situation because this food situation is crazy.
Drunk would have loved it.
It only in.
So I, like, meal prepped my food, right?
I had, I'm on a very, for what I want to do, I want to do on a very strict meal diet thing.
So it's like, I wake up, I'll have like a bagel, I'll have two eggs, I'll have turkey bacon.
All of this is in my own cooler that I brought.
I have, like, yogurts, I have protein granola packed, I've got bananas.
Was it fun meal prepping?
Yeah, it was really fun.
And the food is really good, too.
And even for dinner, I had, like, chicken and, like, cucumbers, all this stuff.
So I had food prepped.
So after I'm done eating, I'm, like, ready to fucking go to sleep.
I go to bed.
They stay up.
And, honestly, the food that I'm hearing, I don't even get to witness it one time on this trip because I keep going to bed early.
Larry, take it away.
What fucking – no, Tanner, you take it away because you were the one who introduced the idea.
You know what?
You guys act like you ain't never seen a chili dog in a hotel before.
I think I had five chili dogs.
It's peak here.
Everywhere else, you guys, every meal after is downhill.
It got worse.
It got worse.
Yeah.
So, like, compared to the other meals we had, chili dogs were a five-star, like, wagyu meal for me.
It was like, we made our own chili.
We had hot dog.
We had ketchup and mustard.
We had fucking everything.
And there was, like, hot Cheetos.
We were just feasting on all these, like, bad food.
And then we made, we also had like soup.
It was crazy.
But yeah, we brought a Coleman grill into one of, into this like hotel in the entire room just reeked of boiled hot dogs and chili.
Why did you do that?
Because I was in a closed room.
Because outside was hot.
Yeah, it was really hot outside.
Bro, you guys are actually probably.
Well, Greg, just wait for how the start of the next day goes.
So, oh, bro, you're egging me on like you're farming my retention.
Yeah, you also.
From what I've heard, you guys were all in each corner of the room eating...
Oh, yeah.
There's one person that helps us record that does not like hot dogs.
And Isaac was in one corner.
I was in the other corner and Flip was in the other corner.
And we were all just eating hot dogs and chili dogs.
And it just freaked up the whole room.
Dude, this was after, like, Tanner leaves my hotel room.
Like, we're all sleeping in one.
And then the production's sleeping in another.
Tanner leaves on I Show Speed fucking TV.
Yeah, I thought it would help you go to sleep better.
He just leaves it on, and I Show Speed just like touring some country or whatever.
And then Tanner goes into the other room.
He's playing Family Guy and I Show Speed and another TV or whatever.
What were you playing?
Oh, I throw on the Stokes Twins.
I don't know if anybody knows who that is.
Who even is that?
They have 144 million subscribers, but I've never heard of them.
Yeah.
Damn!
They're crazy.
The bar is so low for YouTube now.
No, it's too high.
Well, it's like, it's so.
I'm saying, like, the ceiling of like, you know, I'm saying, like, what it was big, like 20 million, 30 million subscribers was huge, right?
But now it's like, 144 million.
You don't even know who that person is.
No.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I found that out with, like, Spanish YouTubers.
Oh, my God.
Oh, like, dude, that's crazy.
Or, like, streamers, Spanish.
Yeah.
God, he has a whole different world.
It's fucking massive.
So, uh, next day, we all pack up.
I get a sick workout in.
And then we're driving.
And the car starts immediately smelling like,
But like butane
We rush out of the hotel
And we're packing everything in and shit
Yeah
Oh my god yeah
Something fell
A seven
I think like a 50 pound water jug
Fell on like the butane
And it just went
What
The whole entire car
And the car to gas us out
We had to like get out the van
And park on the side
And we're like what the fuck
The gas went everywhere
The beer
Yeah the beauty
It started shooting out
But at first I was like
I don't know
know. Maybe it's just how it smells. I wanted us to keep driving.
Okay, low-key, I thought it was like the area we were passing because it was like,
there's a lot of trucks. And, uh, but no, but once he was, I heard, once he heard of the hissing,
I was like, oh, okay, it's in the bag. It's in the bag. It's in the bag. It's over there.
Yep. And then my protein drink exploded on me. And I was like, oh, hell no, it's going to be a
bad day. But we kept trucking on. So I think we go through like, we go through Fallett. We go
to Texline at the far top left. And then we drive all the way down to Kermit, Texas.
Yeah. After Kermit, Texas.
You know, I'm kind of like vaguing about all those towns because, you know, it's just easier.
I don't want to spoil the video.
Dude, that upper hat was, yeah, it was just so.
Nothing burger, bro.
Bison maybe once in a while.
It was like we were in a time slip.
It looked so old.
All the buildings were from like abandoned Redemption area.
Yeah, yeah, dude.
And it's so like barren in between each.
It was near no man's land, remember?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Oklahoma.
Yeah, dude.
Like buildings just like that old and dilapidated, but there's data centers everywhere.
Yeah.
Well, I mean, on one hand, and I'm not proud to, like, really think of it through this light, but at the same time, it kind of makes sense.
Like, by those data centers being built, it is bringing a lot of business to those smaller towns that don't get a lot of people, maybe.
Yeah.
But either way, it still sucks.
It's still shitty, you know, like.
But no, you're right.
It is bringing someone to.
I mean, those hotels are probably, they haven't seen that kind of fucking income.
And then they're going to have no fucking drinking water or cold water.
And then they're totally extinct.
Yeah.
But, yeah, we went to Kermit.
and then from Kermit,
dude,
first fucking night
of camping
at the Guadalupe
mountains.
Y'R.
Why do you fuckers?
Isaac,
please, I need you to talk.
Why do you fuckers
like camping?
See,
I'll talk.
I'll lute to the word.
I'll say,
camping in Texas
is probably the worst thing
you can ever do
because of all the bugs
and how hot it is.
Nobody should actually...
Is that anywhere?
No.
No.
No.
No.
I'm sorry, Larry.
But in Washington,
when you camp,
there are zero bugs,
and it's 60 degrees
and it's nice
and is beautiful and it's greenery and forest and rainforest.
What about Virginia grunk?
Virginia is camping Virginia fire?
It's probably the same vibe in summertime, but our fall.
Yeah.
We're planning to go camping in the fall.
Dang.
Nice.
I'm excited for that.
Well, I will say this now.
Camping fucking sucks.
Like, I think it can be super cool.
I've only ever camped in Texas, and every, like, experience was just awful.
And I hate to sound like a bitchy, whiny, complaining bitch.
But, like, bro, you go camping.
You set up a tent.
You're hot as shit.
You're tired.
You want to go take a crap
and you really,
really fucking can't.
Or you can,
but like,
the bathrooms are,
Guadalupe Mountains
are like pretty whatever.
Yeah.
But you go to bed
in the middle of the night,
all the wind is fucking hitting our tent
and it keeps on collapsing on me.
Dude,
you look like you were suffocating
once on because it collapsed.
It was pretty funny.
It was on my face.
It was completely covering my face.
Larry kept getting dick slapped
by one of the fucking pieces of the tent.
He was a little floppy part
that just,
yeah,
we're sleeping and like stagnant.
air, you're sleeping on rocks that hurt your back.
It's because you're camping during the wrong time of year.
It's summer, Texas, yeah.
Well, it only gets worse from here, Grunk.
It really only gets worse from there.
But at some point it won't be getting worse.
Well, either we were not equipped enough with the right stuff or camping just sucks.
I feel like it's the equipped.
It's definitely equipped.
I mean, we're all trying to fit in like one.
It's a big tent, but it's one big tent, you know, like.
I don't think four people should sleep in a tent when it's nice.
degrees outside.
Yeah, dude.
Thank you about that.
I was next to all your feet, dude.
Really kept making biscuits on my belly with his feet.
I don't even know what the hell was going on.
Larry's feet were right next to my face.
Isaac's feet were inside of me.
It was fucking feet everywhere.
On the second night of camping, bro.
Oh my God, I just can't wait to get to the part
where you slipped on my backpack.
We can't talk about it yet.
We can't talk about it yet.
No.
But, yeah.
That was just such a dog shit time camping.
And then we wake up, we pack the fuck up, and we get out of there.
We drive to El Paso.
We see Siouxed at Juarez.
And they said that backwards?
No, I think it's Ciudad Horas, right?
Wait, no, we went to El Paso first.
Oh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So we went to El Paso and we had some pretty mid-Mexican food.
It was still like Tex-Mex because we're in Texas.
I was like, eh.
I like, the soup was good.
The soup was fired.
Oh, my God.
Yeah.
It was good.
And then from there, I just kept talking about upping my thigh.
Yeah.
And then...
You kept one to let it chirp.
Yeah.
Well, I let it bark.
By the third day, we started riding up against the border wall, which meant a lot of border patrol and just all of that.
We didn't hit a single checkpoint, though, leaving El Paso to Big Bend.
No.
So we went to the national park.
Grunk.
This national park, just to fucking enter it, was like 30 miles, bro.
Grunk, you would have loved.
Loved big.
It was fire.
It was beautiful.
Is that where the Vermillion cliffs are?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I really wanted to go there.
I think that's Ireland.
It's also, dude, it's like the darkest skies.
It's the darkest sky in America.
So, like, I was looking at Milky Way galaxies, meteorites just, oh, my God.
Yeah, they were just going left and right.
It was like a highway up there, dude.
Like, I wanted to cry.
It was beautiful.
Big Bend was awesome.
except for it was really fucking hot
there was no service
a lot of fucking bugs
there wasn't
that's actually really bad
because there was no service
and I was actually itching to look at Instagram reels
like I was like
oh my God I really just want to look here
here
dude we were able to shower there though
and there was internet at the place
where you able to buy stuff
they had like a little cute store and stuff
yeah
and so yeah
the shower wasn't that bad
yeah Tanner looked at my butt cheeks
and so at Isaac
I opened the door when you were showering.
I was just curious.
Yeah.
I mean, dude, it was $2 for five minutes.
I don't know if it's like...
That was the best shower ever had, but it didn't even matter.
It didn't matter.
It literally didn't matter because the minute you shower, you go back outside and it's humid as fuck.
I started sweating instantly.
Yeah.
We went to the tents.
We sit down.
We hear a bunch of like fucking donkeys and shit.
Isaac loves the donkeys, by the way.
Isaac loved the donkeys, right?
He was harassing one of them, bro.
Straight up.
He wanted to fight it.
Dude, but no, he loved...
The donkeys loved you.
Yeah, the ones with the bells and stuff.
Yeah, the d'n-de-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-l-d-tann.
Tanner has a stupid-ass joke where he was like pretending like there was a gun in his pillow.
And he was like, he was fluffing up the pillow and like he shot himself.
And it's a nightmare scenario where you hear, you look over, Tanner's dead, you hear,
all the donkeys around towards the gun show.
It's like the most like, oh shit, there's so much going on.
And it's really hot.
It's really hot.
It's dark.
It's like super dark.
It's the darkest place on Earth.
It was a beautiful skies.
Even like going back a little bit when it was still light out.
You could see, Grunk, we climbed it to this one little top of a mountain.
We walked through like this little path.
We were able to find.
So at nighttime, the border's right there.
The Rio Grande is the river that kind of separates.
It's like running across the border of Mexico and Texas.
And there are people like, I guess just, oh no, it was like funding children.
schools and stuff like that, I think it was.
Its purpose was, so someone from Mexico would come over, like, at nighttime, and they would make, like, little, like, trinkets and stuff like that.
Scorpion spiders, bonset tree, just out of metal.
Yeah.
Like, wire metal and stuff like that.
I wish I had it.
I actually don't know where it's at.
Probably downstairs.
Yeah, there's one downstairs.
Yeah.
And we were able to buy some, and you just, like, put the money inside, like, the little metal thing.
It's a lockbox.
They had a lockbox with a little slit, so you could put a dollar or just money in it, and then you get it.
and it's cool.
It's really nice.
It was so sick, though,
because it looked like a legend of Zelda shop.
Yeah.
You just walk up and you get to choose what you want
and then you just go on your way.
It was like an honor system type of thing.
And so, yeah, we went to the very top
and you're able to see just Mexico
and, like, I guess Texas, right there
just separated by the water.
It's beautiful.
That's where Isaac saw the donkey
and walked up to it and tried fighting it and stuff.
Well, not fight it.
I mean, the donkey was pretty chill, actually.
but we thought that it was going to kick Isaac's ass.
Dude, yeah, they're just staring at each other,
and, like, it was just, like, a donkey and Isaac, like, stare down.
It was like a show off.
Two jackasses.
Two jackasses.
Jackass.
Anyway, we need to really talk about that night's sleep,
because although it was beautiful to see the fucking stars.
I got to tell about my adventure I had.
Go ahead.
This was the night where I actually did not like camping for the first time ever.
Because that's when I had all the first time ever.
feet on me and it was 90 like 92 degrees still and everybody was asleep I don't know how everybody
was asleep like were you guys actually sleeping I kept waking I fell asleep yeah of course you
yeah that's that's because his room where he used to live was like that yeah I remember that was
like one time my AC broke when you guys came over yeah it's normally and it was terrible and it was
trying to fall asleep to mariachi music and humidity was just the worst yeah not the best conditions I'm
sorry
It was so, like, I went to bed.
I went into the tent at like 2 a.m.
Because like that's when I was like done watching all the meteors fall and stuff.
And I was like, all right, that was fire.
And then I went to the tent.
And it was so hot in there.
Stagnant air.
I couldn't breathe.
I took my shirt off.
I was like,
I had to take my shirt off.
And I was like doing the cat cow pose just trying to breathe.
And so I got out of the tent at like 3.40 trying to fall asleep.
And I just started like sitting on the chair out there because it was like,
There was wind.
There was a breeze hitting me.
I was like,
all right,
this is kind of nice.
But that's when I really wanted to, like,
go into an AC building and look at reels.
So the place we took a shower was,
I didn't realize how far away was.
It was a,
it was like a mile.
It was a mile and a half away,
and I decided to walk into the darkest night
I've ever seen in my entire life with a flashlight.
And I had my bear slippers on, too.
Mm-hmm.
And so,
yeah, he had the whole trip.
Yeah, the whole trip.
He packed bear slippers.
I had bear slippers.
and they were not the comfiest shit ever.
And so I began my walk.
I was like, all right.
So I was trying to remember what Willie took the route.
And I was like, all right, he went up this way, took the left.
Started going down here.
And then everything started looking the same.
Then I started getting completely lost.
And I kept hearing donkey bells.
I kept hearing like coyotes go,
and I was like looking over my shoulder terrified.
Because even with the flashlight, I can't see like two feet in front of me.
It was that black.
So I was aiming at the road so I could like walk and see it.
see where I'm going.
And I end up walking for 45 minutes, completely lost, not knowing how to get back or
find the showers until.
Yeah, we almost lost Tanner that night.
Yeah.
That could have been a dude.
There are stories of people, most people go missing in national parks.
I could have been one of them.
I could have been a statistic.
How did you find your way back?
I found the bathroom and I remembered because the men's light was out, but the women's was on.
So I was like, that's it.
So I like sprinted to it.
And like, that's it.
And I started like jogging because I was actually low-key scared because I kept hearing things.
You had to poop?
Dude, no, I couldn't even go poop in there because there are spiders in the toilet.
It was really bad.
It was bad.
No, grunk, the bathroom was just as hot, if not hotter.
It was hotter, yeah.
It was really bad.
Well, you're not trying to sleep in there.
But, like, was it worth, almost getting lost?
No, that was just the camp bathroom.
It wasn't the shower or the AC bathroom.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That was like a toilet.
That was even further down.
That was a different thing.
That was a different, yeah.
You got to think, like, where we were, there were bathrooms, but there weren't, like, full showers and the shop and everything.
To shop with all the showers and everything else.
Laundry was completely, like, a mile away.
I should have said this was the bathroom.
And that's what you walked to?
I tried walking to it.
But the bathroom I went to was the one next to our campsite, which had me find out where we were camping.
That's how we got back.
Yeah.
So, dude, yeah, sleeping in that tent was terrible.
And, like, again, I don't want to sound like a whiny, complaining bitch, but a second night in a row of terrible humidity, terrible heat.
terrible heat
uncomfortable on the floor
this time there was no wind
I think I would have actually preferred
fucking wind there at that point
because we actually secured the tent down
way better that night
we even prepared for rain
yep we had a rain
so I think that that was also what it was
there was not even air passing through
oh true
yeah
didn't say it was gonna rain
it did it was a 15% chance
yeah but it ended up being
the hottest most stilled air night
all time
it was suffocating bro
and dude it's so funny
because Tanner finds out later,
like we're talking in the car.
They're like, Nick, I haven't seen your gun once.
Where is that thing?
And this is when we were going to Mexico.
And I was like, oh, no, it's in here.
Look, and I just take out my gun in the holster.
And Tanner's like, that was in your bag that whole time?
I'm like, yeah, it's been in my whole trip.
He's like, I use that as a fucking pillow.
Oh, my God.
And then that's where Tanner makes a joke where he's like,
he's like, oh, fluffy.
Oh.
All the donkeys turn.
Oh, my God.
I could actually see the scene.
Nightmare.
It's like,
the worst road trip ever.
It's like an hour and a half movie
and the first 45 minutes are really fun.
Oh, dear.
What a nightmare scenario that would have been.
Oh, God.
Flopping the fucking group.
the way that Tanner did it in the car in the front seat was so gruesome
yeah it's so real like I had made like the muffled gunshot like
and I was like it was like
it was graphic
he did like the little joel
yeah yeah yeah so we had I end up
like what four o'clock five o'clock in the morning and I was I get out
because I'm like dude this is terrible I have to pee I've in and out of sleep
Larry's fucking hot as shit right next to me
knocked out. I don't even know how Isaac was able to sleep.
And I go out there and I just hear, hey.
And I'm like, what the fuck?
And I see you were sitting on that chair.
I was like a guard dog.
I had a Pikachu nightlight and I was like,
hey, I couldn't sleep at all.
And I was like, dude, this is so shitty.
Can we just leave?
And we convinced everyone to just get up
and break down the entire fucking campgrounds.
We left by like 440 to 5 a.
And by the way, for anyone to sit there and be like,
well, why don't
you fucking sleep in the van.
Sleeping in the van would have not helped.
Like, we would have, it would have been just as hot.
And if we wanted to even run the AC,
dude, that requires us to either run the battery or use the fuel.
And we are like, like, what?
We're 90 miles away.
Like 90 miles away from a gas station.
Yeah.
And bugs would just fly in there.
There's like three moths in there.
Like, it's just bad.
There's too many bugs.
It was so bad, dude.
I genuinely, I hated that.
I'm sorry.
It was, it was beautiful.
I love looking to the sides, but damn, I cannot sleep.
That was his ass.
Yeah, yeah.
So the next day, though, this is where it is all uphill.
So, man.
You are able to talk anytime you want.
This is the easiest podcast he's ever done.
He's telling me, what does this mean?
I don't know.
What does that mean?
I don't know.
Hurry up.
You want to hurry up?
No.
Chop it up food, avocado.
The wall.
The border.
The border patrol?
Oh.
The border patrol.
So.
Dude.
The border.
I don't know what he's saying.
Rew.
Rewind?
To what?
To what?
To what, man?
What are we rewinding to?
A box.
The top of Mexico?
I mean, America?
I mean, Texas.
Texas.
Okay.
Well, um, dude, you got to talk.
I don't know.
I don't know.
You got to.
The wall and big bend?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, the big band wall.
Yeah.
Oh.
That was also.
Big Bend has some.
fuck shit happening too.
Yo, fuck that wall straight up.
I don't care about your fucking politics, dude.
Like, that wall is so dumb and not necessary.
They're actually drunk.
They are going to, uh, they have bulldozers in Big Bend.
Yeah, they're doing a national park.
Oh, hell no.
They were talking about, yeah, they were talking about putting up a wall basically right
at the water on the Rio Grande.
And it's like, if you think about it, so we were talking to one of the Rangers that was
there.
And he said that there was a, not too long ago, there was a group of people that did
try and come back, like, come through.
it took them two and a half weeks
to find the last person's body.
Yeah. It's that, it's just that big.
Because think about it. If you're going to
cross the Rio Grande, right, you have
about 40, 50, 60 miles of
desert to then get through. You are not getting
through that. And even if you were to take the road,
there's a fucking checkpoint,
a border patrol checkpoint. Do you have to drive through?
And so, like, you pull up to it and they
inspect your car and they fucking ask you questions and
shit, which really, I feel
like it should not be that easy, but I feel like they might do a lot of profiling.
That's probably, yeah. I believe that that's the case because we were driving a big
ass van. It looks so suspicious, dude. Oh my God. I was like, looking at them like, hmm.
I was so tired and they were like, all of you guys, I was like, how many of there are
how many of you are in this car? I looked around like, uh, six.
Because I was so tired. I was like, uh, and oh my God. And then when they asked them
are like, are you guys, you as citizens?
You were like, yes?
Yep.
Yes.
And then I was trying to say, like, have a good day.
And I was also trying to say thank you at the same time.
And I was like, thanks having that.
I just kept on your typing.
Bro.
Stuttering.
It was so bad.
It was really bad.
Fumble.
But about the Big Bend Wall, there is a place you can go to to help.
It is no big Bend wall.org.
Yeah.
And actually, a native tribe is suing the government because of it now.
So, which is kind of fire.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's fire.
It's just like unnecessary as shit, man.
Even the ranger is like, bro, if anyone wants to even try and remotely come over here illegally,
good luck getting through that desert.
Like, it's just that simple.
It's literally just like a stupid power.
It's so dumb.
I looked it up.
And you're destroying land.
They wanted to like add some some paved roads and, like, it's just a bunch of bullshit that it's like, you don't need to do that.
It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
It's just like shit that we don't even need there at all.
So they want to do like, they're doing.
demolition or they want to do demolition and take down some parts of it.
I don't know, dude, it's fucked up.
It's a national park for a reason.
You can't do that.
It's so nice.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, it was, it was.
And the thing is, it's the darkest guy in America.
So there's going to be more light pollution and nobody's going to be able to fucking see
anything in the sky.
So it's just, they're going to ruin it.
They will all.
It's all just to keep folks out.
It's like, all right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, and again, I think the major factor there is like anyone that would try, I came up with
an awesome idea.
we should place vending machines throughout the entirety of Big Ben Park
so anyone that's trying to come over,
they can just go get a free drink.
It's like a network of vending machines.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Nah, but in reality, it's super unnecessary.
Anyone that would try and even come over,
they would unfortunately more than likely die.
Like, it's just, that's what the Ranger told us.
I almost fucking died.
He almost died and he was like within the park.
You're in the campground.
You're in the campground, dude.
God.
Yeah, so after driving there, this is the big day.
This is like the really fun day.
This is where everything turns around.
Everything, like, you are already at your lowest, right?
And now you're going, it's only up from here.
We're driving along the border.
We go through even more checkpoints.
And then we get asked a question.
It's, do you guys want to stop in Mexico?
Yeah.
Everyone looks at Nick, and Nick goes, sure.
Yeah.
Yep, right?
Because, everyone looked at me because.
There's a reason.
Yeah, there's a reason why we look at you because, because for the longest fucking
time, I've been wanting you to go to Mexico, and every time I ask you, you're like, hell no,
I don't want to go.
I've seen the news.
Oh, no, we're going to die.
We're going to fucking get killed.
And look, I get it because the news don't, they don't portray Mexico that well, right?
The news lies.
They put up the worst shit you can possibly imagine.
I mean, it's the same thing how, like, Europeans look at the U.S., and they're like,
oh my God, you're going to get shot anywhere you go, just because they're shootings that
happen in store, shootings happen here and there and here and there.
And true, it happens.
But how fucking, like, they just choose a few longer.
Yeah, but the news, you know, that they, they show it and they only show that.
And it's like, okay, right.
So it's kind of the same case with Mexico, um, where it can be dangerous.
Yeah.
Right.
I'm not saying that it's not dangerous or that it's, you know, but it can be dangerous.
Um, anywhere is dangerous.
Anywhere is dangerous.
You know, it's just, you just got to, I mean, you guys experienced it.
You guys saw it first stand.
of like the, I mean, that area is a little bit more tourist, you know.
Yeah, so we get asked if we want to go. Yeah. And we say yes. We go to Progresso.
Yeah. Right? We stop. We pull into a small little parking lot. We gather all of our stuff.
We go across the border. We pay the dollar each it is in coins to get through.
Yeah, dude is a dollar. Yeah, it's crazy. I didn't realize how easy it was to get into Mexico.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, we just walked through some metal detectors. There were Mexican,
military that were there.
They just let us go through.
And then boom, we were in, and we were immediately met with everyone trying to sell us something.
Oh, yeah.
A lot of vendors.
Which was amazing.
Yeah.
And now we are in Mexico.
Dude, it was so fucking surreal.
Are you not going to talk until you talk about your mask?
Oh, no, he's going to.
No.
No way.
That's what we're all waiting for.
Everyone's mood with that.
Yo.
Thank you guys for watching.
Oh, gosh.
God, dude.
I loved.
I loved it.
That shit was gas, and I hate everyone who doesn't like Mexico.
Mexico was fun.
Larry, that was the best taco.
Oh, yeah!
Larry was shining, bro.
That was the best luncheon and the best taco I've ever had my entire life.
Yeah, we had lunches and we had tacos and oh my fucking God, bro.
And a Mexican Coke.
Oh, my God.
That different?
It's that different.
It's that different grunk.
I want to grab you and I want to fucking slingshot you.
It is.
I think that out.
I took one bite of the taco and I just looked at it later like, oh.
I was like, bro.
It was just like me.
It was so simple.
It was the simplest taco I ever had in my life.
It was like me, avocado or me avocado and like I just sprayed some sauce on it.
I was like, oh my fucking God.
So onion, some tomato like to start, to start, we're like walking around what
basically feels like a Mexican version of NYC.
Like you're walking around.
People are trying to sell you stuff.
It's pretty crowded.
But this is like a touristy spot for the most part, right?
Yeah.
And so very, very friendly people.
You're walking around.
People are trying to offer you cocaine and marijuana.
Really?
I think that was a joke.
I don't think that's real.
No, that was real.
How do you know?
Talk a flip about it.
Did you buy it?
No.
But he was so.
How do you know?
Okay.
Keep in mind.
Keep in mind.
We actually did get offered,
we actually did get offered turtle meat tacos.
So the validity.
of buying cocaine in there.
They like trolling the tourists, man.
The turtle tacos aren't real, but the cocaine and weed is.
Yeah, I mean, they'll probably sell you some weed.
I mean, it's just like New York.
Dude, when I went to New York, some guy was offering, like, heroin.
Watch New York is different.
Yeah.
Well, either way, it was like, basically in New York.
Well, someone said they sent me this hat and I wore it in the end.
Yeah.
I got a hat for you and I have a hat for me.
And I also have 20, no, 30 little marshmallow ice cream cones.
And also I got Lucas.
And also I had,
Dude, you're buying everything you saw.
And I had, I did.
And I enjoyed it.
I did turn people down because I know there was definitely someone that sent their kid over to me.
Yeah, they like, yeah, go get that fucking idiot who has like everything on.
Isaac got haggled so many times.
Yeah, we're eating and they still kept coming into the restaurant trying to sell us stuff.
Yeah.
So we had, so we walked in.
Our first stop was at a grocery store.
And there was so many candies and so many sweets and so many foods.
That was cool.
So we had made a pit stop there to grab some snacks.
I don't think I'd ever seen Larry's so happy.
It was awesome.
Dude,
after like the worst back pain and, like, sleeping, Larry gets to Mexico and it was like, yes.
Yes.
It's like, uh, it's like that post-marriage glow, but it was just like post-Texas.
And I get the hype.
Yeah.
It was just awesome.
So then after the grocery store, we're walking and we see a corn, uh, stand, like a corn
Oh my God, Lotes.
Yes.
Bro, dude.
And so they had some elotes.
Dude.
It was also the best corn I've ever had in my life.
Dude, it was like some of the best food ever.
Listen, I don't care.
I don't care how Hispanic you are.
You will never make me better corn.
There's no one in America that will make me better corn.
It is only that man.
You can't convince me otherwise.
He was so happy.
Oh, my God, was it so, it was so good, dude.
He was awesome.
And after that, right behind him was a street full of outdoor food shops.
And so, you know, we're standing there, we're pointing that we're going to go over there.
We're like, you know, we should get some food over there.
And so as soon as we cross the street
There's all the guys running the shops
Coming out and they're like over here over here
No this way over here
He's gonna fucking scam you
That sounds like an exaggeration
That's exactly what happened
Wait wait wait wait wait wait hold on
I told you I told flip
I talked to flip afterwards
I don't think I've ever laughed harder at Nick in public
Because he's like all right
Enie meanie mighty
And they were like, oh, oh, oh, oh, go to the shot.
Trying to leave a bit, like, cheering for themselves to get picked.
I'm like, I'm like, yeah, that's up to fate right now, guys.
And you're not going to convince any, me, needy, maimo.
And then boom, and we go to this one guy.
He's like, no.
They're like, no, he's going to rip you off.
He's going to upcharge the fuck out of you.
Y'i, me, mini, maimony mo in Mexico?
What's your, is there like a Spanish or a Mexican version of Eni,
mini, money, mo?
or is any, me, mini, moni, mo.
Uni, do.
One of those, three, quix.
Uni, dui, tris.
Like, something like to, like, I'm going to pick something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, singing this song.
Is there something is, there is?
There is, I'm trying to remember it.
Oh, my God, I can't off top of my head.
Well, I was just curious because.
It's like a, it's like a, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da.
Oh, the, it'sy, it'sy, yeah, it's like, but it's Spanish.
Oh, I don't know, but they all knew what Eni, Eni, Moni, Mo was.
And they were all really trying to get.
themselves picked.
Yeah.
Dude, Larry, the sauce.
Yeah, yeah, we picked the restaurant.
But the sauce I used for the taco or the lunches,
that shit was hot as fuck.
Grunk.
You were like, the hot was hot.
The mild one is really hot.
They're both hot.
I don't even know.
And like, people kept trying to sell me like trink it.
So I was like, I can't even talk right now.
This is the hottest shit I've ever had my life.
Grunk, it was like revolving sushi, but for people trying to sell you stuff.
Like one would walk in, be like, oh, you want to buy this?
And we were like, no, no, thank you.
They walk away.
And then another one walks in.
do you want to buy this?
And I was like,
oh, that's all right,
thank you.
Eagles,
you have an Eagles hat?
He's like,
I'll be right back,
walks out,
another one walks in.
You guys want shot glasses?
Eagles.
And they're like,
oh, look at the Eagles shock glass.
And I was like,
no, I'm okay.
I'm waiting on my Buffalo Bills hat.
That I also bought it right after the Eagles hat.
Yeah,
he got,
that guy got like kind of like pissed at Isaac.
And he was like,
you will suck.
Yeah.
Yeah.
What do you say?
What do you say?
What do you say?
He said something stupid.
Yeah.
No,
he was just like,
again. Do you guys want to buy one of the shark glasses?
He was like, I'll just give you this. You come back in a week and pay me.
Oh, yeah, yeah. He was like, he was like, dude, he's like, you can just have it. You can pay me back in a week and a month. Whatever. You can just pay me back. Here, you just have it.
Dude, on the Mexican trip, on the Mexico trip, I was the friend that did not bring his wallet. I had my wallet, but I didn't bring my money.
I can't blame you, bro. I just didn't, I just didn't go and take out money. Like, would you, would you, would you knowingly, like,
if you had never been to America,
would you bring all of your valuables to you
to New York City?
No, no, no, well, that's not what I'm trying to say.
What I'm trying to say is that I was the friend
that just like, oh man, like,
no, I was almost leaving my shit.
Like, I think some of us left our wallets back there.
I brought my phone.
I brought my wallet.
I brought everything.
No, no, no.
The point of that I'm trying to make is that I was making a joke,
dude.
I was a friend that didn't fucking bring his wallet
and that you guys had to buy me everything.
Oh, but you wouldn't.
But if I did have cash,
because I didn't go and get cash,
I would have definitely bought some.
thing. I think one of the reasons. But I kept on saying, I don't have money.
There's that and the fact that you were like, you were talking about the Great Locking and you knew
damn well, like, there's nothing healthy on the other side of that border. Like, it's all going to be like,
mm, food, like, mm. Willie, didn't you love that food?
Uh, didn't you love that corn of those tacos you had, the loonches?
You know, it's crazy after, yes, actually I did. I've been, you guys had seen how rigid I was the
entire trip. You were perfect. I think the worst thing I had was like a fucking beef jerky stick or
something like that, which is not even bad.
Yeah.
You know, very lean.
But I did end up trying the alote.
I did try some of the loch.
I had five loce.
I actually, actually were really small, but they were good.
There was a pre-workout snack.
Yeah, I fucking, yeah, I, I carved up.
Let me tell you that much.
And it was worth it.
It was, I took a sip of the Coke.
That was delicious as hell.
Like, there are so many redeeming factors about Mexico.
Like, we walked around.
We were able to, like, dude, just the people were so nice.
Like, everybody was nice.
I think the worst thing about Mexico.
is the fact that we had to leave
to go to a different destination.
We were there for like an hour
and like an hour and a half.
And although it was like, you know,
it was a nice day trip.
It was like there's so much.
You would have loved it.
Bro, I really wish I got a haircut.
I really do.
I would have asked them to give me the end here.
They had,
they had photos.
And it was really funny to be like
the photos were like from Google
of like the chat pictures.
The chat photos.
Like the most perfect lines.
Yeah, perfect line.
The most perfect hair and everything like that.
Oh, we saw.
like Spanish Mario.
Spanish Mario Penaata.
And all the Piniadas, they had
Goku soap, bro.
Like in the grocery store we went to.
Dude, they had
Mario next to like two strippers.
It was all pinatas.
It was the best, bro.
It was like, bring me back.
I'd go back and I'd have a blast.
There's like FNAF action figures
being sold on the side.
There was also, yeah, bro.
Yeah, it was great.
Dude, there was one time in the video
I just kept on, like, every single time
someone was trying to sell me something.
I'm like, oh, Larry, you were
just telling me you needed this, Larry, Larry.
And then they walk up to Larry.
I don't know.
It would be like a fake Louis bag and then we keep walking.
Like a hat.
I'm like, Larry, weren't you just looking for a hat?
Larry, weren't you just looking for some sunglasses?
Every single time.
There was a really funny guy, like, because there's a lot of shoe shiners there too.
Oh, my God.
He was trying to, like, to shine our shoes until they look down.
And Isaac was wearing these, like, this styrofoam big giant Mickey Mouse shoes.
And I was wearing fur fur slippers.
And I was like, no, I just got these on.
He's like, I can do it.
Give me a chance.
Yeah, let's give me a chance.
I'll try it.
Yeah.
Mexico was such a good vibe.
I'm very glad that we went.
That was fun.
Dude, they're just funny, bro.
Like, everyone's there.
It's so stupid, dude.
I forget how funny they get where they're like,
that's what I was talking about.
We were leaving.
They were like, hey, come on,
we'll make you some turtle tacos.
And then the, they were saying in Spanish.
So, like, when I was selling the guys.
Tacos are tortuga.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Tacos de Tortuga.
And then the other guy was like,
Tacos is like, bro, what are you saying?
He was like, yeah,
He was like, what are you talking about?
He was like laughing.
And then some girl was coming up asking about, I think she was trying to sell us something.
And then the guy was like, don't buy or nothing.
She'll scam you.
And she got mad at him.
She got pissed.
She got pissed at it.
Because we were like already by the, like by the border or by the entrance.
Yeah.
One of, like, one of the sad realities of going there and going to Mexico was like, you know that that's a tourist hot spot.
And the only reason.
not as much.
Well, I mean, when I'm seeing hands through the fucking the cracks of the bridge, man.
There's a saddew, yeah.
There's definitely, there's layers, man.
There really is.
That was the one time I wish I had cashed.
People were asking for like money through the bridge that connected.
Yeah, a little boy was asking.
He was like saying you wanted to eat and stuff.
I think you gave him money, right?
Well, I was walking out with a luchador mask.
A fucking like a straw hat, a bunch of ice cream cones for Mexico.
Like I couldn't, I couldn't, I couldn't not.
Like, my morals would not.
let me cross that border without doing that, bro.
I could not give him any money.
I couldn't.
I couldn't afford it.
I got too much cool stuff.
No, you did.
You did give him.
I think both of you did, right?
Yeah.
I gave money before.
Okay.
You did give money before.
Yeah, I just felt like an ass, like saying no or like ignoring that.
You gave him like 20 bucks or something, 10 bucks.
Yeah.
I don't know how much they go.
I'm sure it goes far in Mexico, but it's like.
20 bucks would go for a lot.
I'm not.
I can't walk back.
They were taking USD there.
I don't know where.
They start taking, like, vessels.
Dude, it was crazy.
So, when you have to cross back over,
you have to go through, like, the, the Mexico side of things where, like,
you have to pay, like, money, kind of like how you paid a dollar to get into Mexico.
You have to pay, like, money to get out to get into the United States.
And it was 30 cents.
Yeah.
And so, and, yeah.
And so we didn't have, like, the cash on us.
So, bro, like, they didn't even idea us.
They just opened the gate and just had $2 for everyone.
I mean, look at us.
Yeah, for everyone to buy.
Like, can you blame them?
Like, we look pretty...
I don't know, bro.
There's some Mexican that look white.
There's this one girl in the town that my parents live at, and they call her a weta, because she's like really white, you know?
Well, I feel like maybe their logic is if you're not going to pass the United States, you just come right back anyway.
Right?
Because you still have to go through the U.S. checkpoint.
Yeah, you still have to go through the checkpoint where they check your ID and they asked you, like, what were you doing there?
Do anything on you?
Yeah.
But, no, it was fun.
That was a really great experience.
Oh, also, you could go without a passport.
You don't need a passport.
Yeah, you just need ID, man.
You need an ID.
And a birth certificate.
And a birth certificate.
Yeah, you don't even...
You didn't need a birth certificate?
No, I didn't need...
No, if you don't have a passport, you have a passport, you have a passport card.
I had one.
Yeah.
If you don't have that, you can bring an ID and a picture of your birth certificate to get in and out.
Yeah.
It's pretty crazy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So, I mean, you have to think about it, like, they can't turn you away, like, in the United States, like, you're a citizen.
Yeah.
You have to, you're able to come back.
that was an amazing vibe.
Like that like juice the vibes.
Like being so down and sad about camping for so long.
It was like a vibe enhancer, dude.
Yeah.
That food was amazing.
First actual meal was those tacos and I was like in heaven.
And then from there on now, I'm not gonna lie, it only got better.
It only got better.
You know why?
You know why the vibes are so up?
Why?
Because they were eating fucking mayo hot dogs the entire trip.
Because not the entire trip.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Gross.
Let's take a step back.
Don't knock until you try, man.
Don't knock to try it.
keeping my mouth set for the entire time,
but we did kind of gloss over the fact that we
So when we were leaving,
we're going to rewind just one time.
When we were leaving the Super 8
with the data centers,
the chili dogs that we were having,
we had ketchup and mustard as well.
We only packed two bottles,
ketchup and mustard.
We forgot them there,
and then we forgot to buy more
when we got to the next place
to eat these hot dogs.
Keep in mind,
we stopped at like two more fucking Walmart.
Yeah,
we had no idea that he didn't pack it.
Oh, okay.
So the only other economy we had
was mayo and I'll be damned if I'm being a dry dog.
We had peanut butter, jelly, and mayo.
So you decide.
What would you put on that dog?
You want a peanut butter jelly dog?
What would you put jelly?
Honestly.
Get the fuck on out of here.
You're crazy.
Dude,
just like I put chocolate on.
Dude,
let me know in the comments.
A lot of people put mayo on dogs.
Honestly,
I did not like it.
I only had it because we had to.
You're weird.
Dude,
you ever eating a baloney sandwich?
Same shit.
You're like a character right there.
I love it.
fucking mayo dogs,
Have you ever eaten a baloney sand with the mayo on it?
Same shit,
different day.
That's really what it is.
Larry literally almost walked home.
Yeah.
So doing that in front of,
yeah,
one person on the trip doesn't like hot dogs
and the other hates fucking mayo.
And you combine both of those together.
You get a special treat.
You get like a fucking like a deterrent.
Wait.
Oh my God,
maybe it'd make the other person,
like it'd make them like the opposite thing.
Oh yeah.
You should have tried a mayo dog, Larry.
No.
Yeah.
Maybe you would have had mayo and,
Dude, I could smell it.
No.
Oh my God.
Mayo got a Larry's bag or something and he almost threw up.
I didn't want to mention that but here we go.
You got on my fucking bag, dude.
My back was on the floor.
It was so dark.
I couldn't see the bag and I was like,
and it got on my fucking bag and I'm like,
you ass all over it.
It was like a little drop in a little bit of mail.
It was like a reason.
No, it was bigger than that.
No, it was not this big Larry.
No, there was.
And my stains to show it.
There's stains on it.
It was like yellow.
Look at them.
arguing about mayo and dogs.
They're arguing about mayo dogs a lot bigger.
Dude, grunk, it was bad because then we end up after that stopping at another Walmart and they forget the condiments again.
They had opportunities, multiple opportunities to get more condiments and then they eat mayo hot dogs another night in a row.
So now at this point, Isaac has dogged eight hot dogs.
I think I've had, yeah, I've had eight, he had ten.
So we put down 18 dogs for you.
Not the best thing to eat.
Yeah, there's kind of like a lot of, like, a lot of.
other good stuff to eat.
Dude, I was surviving off of, like, the Hill Shire fucking.
Crackers cheese and meat.
Yeah, there's a cracker cheese and meat.
It's like a lunchable.
And then at night, ramen noodles.
Do you ever see those TikToks of like those moms or dads?
It's usually moms that are like packing my daughter lunch.
And it's like the most beautiful meal in the world.
So that was me with my food.
And then they were eating at a lunch bags and like the brown bags and whatever they got.
fucking flourish.
Willie had like, bro,
Nick had like protein drinks.
He had protein yogurt and like steak bowls.
And it was literally,
if I had your brain,
I would do,
I would have done that.
But instead,
I had 10 mayo dogs and it was great.
And boy,
did those feel me.
I was like,
man,
I feel like fucking shit on this trip.
God,
I don't know how much more I could take
for this bad food.
And I'm sitting here and listen to it.
You know what,
Willie?
I'm down two pounds after all those mayo dogs.
I am too.
Yeah,
because it's cleaning out your whole,
fucking body.
I will not lie.
The bowel movements that followed this trip were not to be discussed on a
I didn't shit until the third day.
It was bad.
It was really, really bad.
And Larry didn't shit the entire trip.
You guys are scared of poo.
Dude, dude, Larry, I'm not, we're going to get there.
Larry went five days without shitting until we got 10 miles away from home and he was like,
oh my God.
The Herald, Angel Singh.
He was like, grabbing like the fucking thing.
His toes were like
Rip it through the fucking floor of the van
It was only with the 10
The last 10 miles
We were just talking about it today
Larry's like
Bro I poop like two times
And I was like yeah
That was day four and five
Larry just slept and did not shit
Dude on the trip
In the car
Oh my God
Was the camera recording
For any of that Larry
When we were talking about
Oh it was yeah
The GoPro
One of the GoPro
Larry and I were talking
We're just making
A fucking Odyssey joke
The entire time
About like our poop being
Trojan horses
Yeah
And they were like getting ready.
Yeah, they're like,
I was like, okay.
I can smell Austin from here.
It's like just waiting for you to come out.
That was one of the far as I don't know how my body did that.
I didn't really like,
I didn't really think about it either until like we were at our last leg of the trip.
And I was like, damn, I haven't shit this whole trip at all.
Like I've peed, but that's about it.
Yep.
And.
Oh my God.
You know what?
Larry would have been able to shit when we get to South Padre.
Yeah.
However, so we get the South Padre.
We have a nice hotel.
right it's beautiful beautiful
air conditioning
from the two days of camping
that we just had
amazing like a pool
jacuzzi
dude on the beach
motherfucker
how it felt real
when we pulled into the parking lot
and we couldn't find
where our room was
and then Isaac just pulls
into a random parking spot
we get out
and the room is right there
right in front of us
and we're like holy fuck
it's meant to be
this is going to be the best
this is it
night of our life
oh my god
so we take out all of our stuff
we bring it inside
Tanner at this point
checked out, bro. He's got blisters on his feet. He goes and takes a shower. He's like, bro,
my feet from these bear paws brought on. So, Taylor, how funny? How funny was it to pack only one pair of
shoes and those were the bear claws? I liked it. I thought it was a good bid. I think it's worth it.
It was a good bit, but it was also really funny how our creative, creative director was like,
that's hysterical. So you did it and you didn't pay anything else. Yeah, I just asked him,
I was like, should only bring these? He's like, that's hilarious. You should do it. I was like,
yeah.
Oh, that's like a classic.
Would you jump off a bridge?
Yeah, that would be hysterical.
You should do it.
All right.
Well, so we get there.
Tanner goes in showers.
Isaac and production.
And then Larry ends up walking.
We all go to the beach.
I'm filming for a bit.
And then we're like, okay, well, we catch wind that there's this like carnival area,
like a boardwalk kind of area, like bars and like a ferris wheel and some rides.
So we all get ready to go.
We end up convincing Tanner to go with us.
We rent a.
golf cart
Tanner
You were talking to me
while I was showering
in the hotel too
Lucky man
Yeah
And that comes into play
Yeah
And that matters
That fact matters
I actually also ate my food
And I rinsed out
All of my stuff
And I was like
Okay fuck yeah
This is sick bro
It feels so good
Change getting new clothes
We get on this golf cart
Grunk
We go to this area
Go on rides and stuff
At this point
I look at Tanner
We're standing in line
to get tickets for these rides,
Tanner's eyes are like glowing red
like an Inderman, bro.
And I'm looking at him,
and he's like,
he's like,
smiling eyes are fucking half shut.
And I'm like,
are you fucking high right now?
He's like,
yeah,
I was giving a THC drink.
Which,
by who?
By production?
By flip.
Oh,
I see.
Yeah.
Because,
because they sold it.
They were selling it there.
And to be fair,
it said 30 milligrams,
and he drank most of it.
I didn't know
was going to hit me that hard.
Yeah, that shit slammed you.
That shit was different.
I was like,
and even after all of that,
you still got the one up on my bitch ass and went on.
Yo, Isaac.
I went on a slingshot.
I went on the slingshot completely high
and it was the,
it was that right.
It was awesome.
It was fun as shit.
I felt like I was going to space when I was.
I bet,
dude,
that sounds crazy.
It was crazy.
I was telling,
I was telling 10,
I'm like,
dude,
trust me,
bro,
this is going to be the most fun you've ever fucking had.
I promise.
He's like,
okay,
I hope so.
And we're like laying there
And he's like dude
I'm sorry
And we get fucking shot straight up
Dude you just loved it
I was so proud of Tanner
Cause yeah
Isaac got bitched
Isaac's like
I'm never fucking doing that too
I'm too big for that shit bro
I don't know
These two deal weeds
Went to the
Went to the on the Ferris wheel
The slow Ferris wheel
We had a cute little moment
We're up there
And he stopped it up there
We started looking for you guys
We couldn't find you
Dude Larry was like
Man I feel fucking stupid
I should have gone on it man
It was so fire dude
Yep
Your phone well bad
I'm telling you bro
It was a fun ass time
Why didn't she go back
And go on it
They were closing I think
Yeah they were closing
You could only buy one ticket
And we had to return the carts
So we were like
Let's go get some food
And then we'll return the cart
So that we can make it all on time
Dude driving that cart was so much fun
You were having the time of your live drive
You were you kept turning the hat backwards
And like
Oh
You're just driving a golf cart of six people
On the road
I was hanging off the fucking back of it
And looking at people
I was waving at everyone
Dude everyone
Everyone with a golf cart out there, like, Grog, do you have a beach town of Virginia?
Like, what, what's your big beach town?
Yeah, we got Virginia Beach.
Is that like the town?
Everyone goes to, like, have, like, a beach day or, like, go to the beach.
I think everyone kind of goes to the Outer Banks.
Outer banks?
Okay.
It was like, you know how people in the Outer Banks are when it comes to just like, no one is actually from the outer banks.
They're just visiting.
So everyone's in a great fucking mood.
They're not home.
It was like that.
It was like, this is the one place in Texas where everyone was like that.
It felt really nice.
not Galveston, fuck you
Galveston, we'll get there, but
yeah, golf cart had to be returned
we went on to golf cart, we stopped for
food truck food. And I got
a bunch of unhealthy foods. I also got
an unhealthy sandwich. It was like real food
that they finally fucking had. I had my
chicken, Tanner had brisket sandwich.
I had a brisket sandwich, dude.
I was, you know, it was a camping trip,
it was a road trip, I didn't care what I was eating.
It just sounded so good. No, I'm not saying here,
I can't judge you, bro. I got like a...
I don't even remember what I had.
It was good, though.
Justified crash.
Let me set the mood.
We had the best fucking day ever from leaving Big Bend to go into Mexico,
having an amazing time there,
coming to South Padre,
amazing hotel room.
Everything was like all looking good.
In one day we left Big Bend,
went to Mexico and went to the beach.
Yep.
All in one day.
And went on all that carnival shit and ran to the golf cart.
Yeah.
Oh my God.
Now we come back home.
It's like probably 12 something in the morning.
It's like 12.30 in the morning.
Here it comes.
We place down all of our food and we turn on the sink.
I turn on the sink to try and wash my hands.
Water doesn't work.
And we're like...
Nothing ever goes right for us, group boys.
No.
All the water is turned off.
We go to try the other sink.
Doesn't work.
Try turning on the shower.
Doesn't work.
Toilets broken.
The entire hotel.
Right after Tanner was able to shower and right after I was able to wash out all of my
fucking, my glass stuff with all my food in it, all of the water in the entire hotel goes
out and the next time it'll come back on the next day when we leave yeah i'm not even kidding you they said
noon next day our checkouts 11 so nobody could shower no one could shower now grunk i know that doesn't
sound like a massive big huge deal but i got to put this at least you and me real quick just so i can
level with you you've had long hair you know what goes into that now yeah i was literally crawling
on the beach with like the longest most salty dried hair from jumping in my my my my my my
whole head was wet.
I was banking on this shower and that happens.
And that was like,
bro.
Oh my God.
I actually can't imagine.
It's like going all in on black.
Oh my God.
I died.
I died.
I busted everywhere.
There's nothing,
brunks, dude.
We all did not shower.
I mean,
we showered the night before a big bend,
but then we went back to our,
like our tents and it was hot.
You're just sweating again and smelling like shit.
And then we get,
so no one could shower.
Yep.
Not at all.
You couldn't pee because there was no water to flush.
you couldn't do anything
You could have peed
Well I can still pee
Yeah we filled up
I think it was like we stacked three peas
And I used our flush
I did use a flush also
I did use a flush also
I peed in the
I'm gonna be I'm gonna say it
I peed in the shower drain
That was you
Dude it reeked like piss
The whole bathroom
You had to wash it down or nothing
My pee was
My pee was really clear
I can't imagine it would have stung
You have to put water back down
The flush it
You stinky guys
Fush in the sink
feed in the shower.
This is me.
I did that.
Dude,
I don't even.
You know what, bro.
That was like so stupid.
It was just like,
yeah,
you get there,
you get there.
And yeah,
so I,
we just went to bed.
Yeah.
We were so fucking pissed and upset.
We just went to bed.
And then the next day
was just the final leg.
It's the final day.
We go to Galveston.
I hate Galveston for some reason.
I thought it was actually really chill.
Yeah,
it was really chill.
We went from South Padre,
awesome,
beautiful blue water beaches to Galveston.
Brown,
shitty and it's also right by Houston
sorry I didn't mind Galveston
it was pretty nice the sand was really soft
The people were nice
Yeah people were nice people were nice
People were nice it was really funny though
Charles Barclay just hates it because he can go anywhere
In the world yeah Charles Barclay hates it
And there's like dog poop so it was like really funny
Yeah there was a big pile of dog shit on the beach
I was like all right we're in Galston big dog
Big pile of dog poop
No but that's where we ended up
We ended up closing the loop technically back in Houston
Yeah
And honestly dude
I'm very happy that we went on that trip
That was a great trip
Grunk, wish we can go on a road trip with you sometime
Yeah dude
Dude drive to Virginia
Just drive to Virginia
And then join you
Our next thing
We're gonna say it in the video
Our next trip should be around California
Our next trip should be around California
It should be in an RV
And we should bring you
We should start at the inland
We should start at the inland
At the bottom right inland near New Mexico
Or whichever is right next to it
And then we should drive up
Go left
and then down the coast.
Because we can hit the redwoods and we can hit the beaches and we can hit a bunch of other shit.
I want to go to the redwoods.
We can hit every,
we can hit every beach on the way down.
Yeah.
And also I want to make like an oath right here and now and I'm going to tell production as well.
I want to make sure we have time to do shit.
You know, we were in and out of Mexico.
Boom, one hour.
We were in and out of the beach like, boom, 45 minutes.
I was like, uh, but.
Grunk.
This is my final year of having obligations.
I watched your video on YouTube.
Before I can do anything.
I watched your video on YouTube.
Did you like it?
I did.
What you post?
I posted a video on my JP.
Oh, yeah. I watched it too, while you've been gone for a minute.
It's called Stop Jacking off.
Oh, is there a different one?
Stop jacking off.
It's really just like...
You posted a video about that once.
It's like an update?
Yeah, I said stop watching porn.
Yeah, just like an update on why it stopped uploading
because and the reasons being,
I feel like one, I don't have much to talk about
and two, anything I do talk about
is like, how do I know that's something
that I will agree with down the line?
Yeah, because you're ever changing and ever...
Yeah, like, I'm still changing so much.
See, I agree with that sentiment,
but then you'll prevent yourself from ever
posting ever again.
Life's about changing and changing things.
Personally, I think that's fine,
but like putting out a video
and stating it as like, as if it's like some concrete opinion,
it's like, eh.
Like what?
Like, was there a specific?
Like, you think we should be watching Born now?
Yeah.
Did you change your mind?
I don't know anymore.
I don't know.
Who knows?
Who knows?
No, man.
Everything flips on his head before you even freaking realize.
Right.
That's just true.
I think, I think it's important to recognize the growth over time, though.
You would never be able to acknowledge growth.
Like, dude, the videos that we have posted from years ago really show growth, right?
Like, the type of humor that we had, the type of, like, there was no reference.
if everyone kind of thought that same way,
then there's no reference to know
what the internet was or how people thought
then versus now and what was acceptable
then versus why it's no longer much
acceptable now. So it's like, yeah, I can understand
where you're coming from, but you know, not everything
requires you to be like, well, this is my opinion
now. So in four years, maybe I hopefully stand by this or not.
Like, you know what I'm saying? It's just kind of like,
it's kind of one of those things where it's just it comes
of time. And if you're really not comfortable with it,
just remove it, private it. That's what
I do. There have been some pretty poorly dated jokes in some of our videos in the past years
that I've just privated, bro, because it's like, well, I don't agree with those. And keeping
it up only allows for it to fester an agenda that I don't agree with. Point blank, you know.
People change, believe it or not. People can change. No way. It's kind of crazy.
People really do change. And you're also allowed to be in life. You're also able to disagree with
your past self without also like putting your past self down like that's that people who do that
people who live in those types of mindsets they they don't allow and acknowledge for growth and as a result
they're holding everyone at a fucking stake and it's like that's not conducive to growth right
because who are they to be the fucking the guards of growth like what like you think everyone's just
going to be like you're going to grow up and fucking know what's right and what's wrong
everyone's all different bro so yeah that's true
Nobody gets out alive in this world.
At the end of the day, though, I feel like recently, like, I feel like there's two, if there were any concrete feelings, I feel like it'd be understanding, I talked about it in the video, understanding acceptance and patience.
And that's like all you need to get through in life.
Yeah.
Acceptance and patience, yeah.
If you can't change.
If you can't control it, why, what's that saying?
Yeah, it's like, if you can't, you can control your.
actions but not your thoughts
that's a thing
that's what is one saying
I don't remember it
it's something about
if you can't control it
why worry or
it's like a one of those
box the box diagram
where it's like
can you control it
no then why are you like
stressing out about it
yeah
can you control it
yes then why
you're stressing out about it
yeah
it's just like
it's kind of like
that stoic mindset
right
like stoicism
yeah
it's just like
don't get upset
over things
like if you fire
an arrow
you can aim perfectly
at that fucking
that target
and the minute
The minute you let go of that arrow, wind could take it over to the right.
Don't get upset about the wind that took it to the right because it was out of your hands.
You're so stoic.
Yeah.
I mean, that's really what this.
You're stoic.
Stoic.
But yeah.
Yeah.
So, I mean, honestly, dude, people grow, bro.
People who fucking don't allow other people to grow.
Like, you know, I like to think about this a lot.
It's like, if you are someone who tries to gauge and look at it.
someone else's growth or like kind of smite them for it.
But my number one reference is look at your parents, like straight up.
Look at your parents or look at your friends.
Like people who are really close to you and like just know that they made,
because they're older than even the people that you are judging now,
they've definitely made even more fuckups.
They've definitely said things.
They've definitely done things.
And like, you know, I think the biggest thing for me to take away is just like,
don't give a fuck as much.
Like straight up.
If it's not harming.
If like you genuinely.
genuinely did not hurt somebody, but if you, and if you did hurt somebody, you're able to
apologize and you're able to make up for that by, like, actually, like, trying to seek out
a solution.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I mean, that's just an example, right?
Like, you know, I don't know.
In life, like, yeah, I've had my feelings hurt in past, you know, it's just like, what do you do?
It's either that person gets over it or, like, you talk it out or whatever.
I don't know.
But that's, I'm kind of, like, the thought they're a little fleeting because I don't really
want to jump down that rabbit hole and, like, talk a bunch about it.
but I don't know
I think that a lot of people
just need to start like
I'll have to watch that video JPA
was it while we're on the road trip
he didn't even tell us
no it was it yesterday
oh okay
yeah yeah I was yesterday
yeah
I just sat down and did it
because I've been wanting to post on there
but um
Ouch
I just haven't had the draw
like the calling
yeah like how you were
that's a contradictory statement
but you know what I'm saying
yeah
like like
I've been wanting to post, but I haven't been sure what I wanted to talk about because I wasn't...
Yeah.
I felt like I said everything I wanted to say.
It's real.
But the main thing I realize I'd be talking about on there is like two people that were in my position like three years ago, like starting college and just that period of change in life.
Right.
And I feel like a lot of people who are in that position right now could definitely use those words because it's a very big...
I love reading the comments because like I think it really does help people.
Yeah. Yeah, there are a lot of people that have no idea what's going on.
Yep.
You know?
There are a lot of people that don't get to have those types of conversations.
I think there are a lot of people who don't know how to have those types of thoughts.
Yeah, I was actually talking with Jackson today about how, and he said something that stuck.
It was like, friend groups with, like, diverse ages are so important because, like, everyone can learn from each other in such a crazy way.
Like, I think I either heard or read or saw somewhere.
It was, like, classrooms where it's, like, or schools or whatever, where, you're, you know,
all grades are like in the same classroom that's where people or students learn the most because everyone helps each other and and learn each other and it's like oh that makes so much sense you talk about k through 12 one roof type of school maybe yeah yeah the littlest of jits to the tallest of brus yeah like everyone offers so many different perspectives and dude grunk lit in his video is like i'm just a jit who doesn't know anything did you actually see that the unknowing jit
I'm just a young-ass shit.
Oh my God.
I'll have to peep.
I'll have to peep and see it.
I mean,
Grunk,
like,
you know,
I think what gives people perspective is a lot of people,
I feel like a lot of people just don't think or they,
I would like to think that they have the capabilities to,
but sometimes people show that they really don't.
It's like thinking about other people's perspectives other than their own.
Yes.
And like,
that really does come with time.
Tony guys.
Because like,
for example,
with like my great lock-in,
bro, like, I'm showing every single day of my week what I'm doing.
I'm showing going to the gym.
I'm showing what I'm eating a lot of the time.
Or I'm just saying what I did, right?
I'm showing every single day.
And it's almost like, it's almost like when you're a kid and you're like, oh shit,
I didn't realize that my teacher actually goes home.
I never thought about that because I thought that they slept at school.
Yeah.
Like, you know, like, oh my God, you see your teacher.
They disappear after you leave.
It leaves your mind, you know.
So it's like there's a little bit of a lack of perspective sometimes.
And that's not always.
I mean, there's a lot of great people in the comment sections who do a lot of commenting.
And then also not to even down talk people who lack perspective.
Because the point is to try and help them gain perspective.
Right.
So it's not even like it's not like there's anything really negative about it.
Where it starts to kind of get a little negative is when they start to like get very judgmental and like very negative.
and like things are
like that closed-mindedness
bro I can't fucking stand it
it's just like
it's ignorance and like on the
they don't desire
they don't possess the need or want
to change their perception
or their outlook on other things
because the way they think is
very stubborn
yeah it's uh you know
rumored to be right
I'm thinking the correct way
I can't be swayed type of thing
yeah you can't be swayed
and you will be swayed eventually
I'll say going to Mexico
gave me a good perspective
it gave me a very good perspective
on just everything that I have.
Yeah.
I mean, I posted my,
my great lock-in video
technically today
at the time of recording this.
And in that video,
I do mention just straight up
that, like, there's a lot to be grateful for.
Like, even in the gym,
like, the ability to be able-bodied
is in of itself something to be grateful for
than no one really thinks about.
Like, you injure yourself
and you're just like, oh, fuck, man.
Like, now you're waiting to recover.
Or, like, you get sick.
And, like, everyone gets sick.
And then they're like,
Fuck, man, I do anything not to have this goddamn sore throat right now.
And it's like, you know, it's like the thought of not having that sore throat sounds so amazing, but you don't really remember.
Like you remember like how good it was to not have.
It's the same thing.
Or it could be like you'll never know how good it is to not have something like a chronic.
Yeah, as I say, like someone like, let's just say someone's on dialysis.
You'll never know.
Straight up say.
Yeah, like they have to go and get dialysis multiple times a week, bro.
Their kidneys cannot function anymore without a machine helping aid and flushing out toxins and stuff like that.
Like it gives perspective, you know?
Like someone who's like they miss a limb or like I don't know shit like that it's just always good to think that way
I actually tried one day not to like make a joke out of people there missing a limb
I tried one day when I was really young I just have to get this off my chest guys I'm sorry
I tried to like emulate what it would be like if I lost my left arm
I didn't make it very far it took me about an hour um I was able to brush my teeth that was super cool
I could not tie my shoes
And I almost was late for school
Because my mom was like
You gotta stop pretending like you're a parallel
You do it hurry up getting the fucking car
This was last year by the way
Yeah
I was 20
Yeah I don't know
Like oh my gosh
It's yeah
Don't take things for granted bro
I feel like especially we take those around us for granted
Often
Oh yeah
Take a second and just sit there
And think about the people
Who have been a part of your life
And how they've affected you in different ways
positive or negative.
It's really, it's something special, bro.
Like, it really is.
Like, oh my God, whatever.
I watch, I forget if I talked about this on the podcast or not, but around Christmas
time, I watched, it's a wonderful life.
I think it's the movie where it's like old-ass Christmas movie, black and white.
And the guy, like, tries to kill himself, but then the angel brings him back and shows how sad
the world would be without him.
And then the angel, like, brings him back.
and everyone's like so happy to see him
and that movie like
yeah it just like
it gave me so much perspective
on like how much one life affects
so many others and like
I just started thinking about how
how I've connected with so many people
and like all my friends lives
that I've impacted and how they've impacted
mine and it's just like bro
tears just like genuinely
so fantastic that movie
it used to be the most boring fucking movie
I've ever seen in my damn life
up until I hit a certain age and I started really paying attention what's going on.
Yeah.
Trust me, it's a wonderful life.
We'll soon register and click in some of your brains when you watch.
Oh my God.
It's like, wow.
Generally one of the best movies of all the time.
I got to watch that now.
You've never seen it's a wonderful life?
Bro!

I...
It really makes...
No, don't tell...
The three musketeers.
What the fuck?
Okay, can that be our first movie?

Like as someone who like really appreciates movies and shit
I'm kind of like I'm gonna give you a noogie after this camera turns off
But you really I'm serious you need to watch that
He also hasn't seen he also hasn't seen Nemo
Okay
I'm sure Mimo can go it doesn't have to be Nemo
There's a lot of Disney movies I haven't seen toy story
It's a wonderful life it's like no I thought I didn't but I did see toy story
Because I remember I was constipated one Christmas
My brother put his laptop in the bathroom and had to watch Toy Story
It's like it's a wonderful life
When do you know it's black and white
And like when it was shot?
Because it was like the 60s or something
Real is for a long time ago
Yeah, do they have it in colored
They do, but it's not the same
You would like in black and white

Mayo dog.
I'm not gonna do it.
I'm just not.
Tell Jackson.
Tell Jackson about it.
I'm the same way with me.
Dude,
if you tell Jackson

he's like,
oh, dude,
I love Mayo dogs.
He will.
He will probably like,
oh, you're talking
about the mayonnaise dogs.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It's just so gross.
I can hear him and go,

Ew, the fuck no.
All right.
We'll wrap this up in a nice little Christmas box and put a little bow on it.
That bow is called Make sure you use code group for 10% off your lien.
And inside the box is we'll see you next week.
And the wrapping paper is love yourself goodbye.
Oh yeah.
Love yourself goodbye.
And watch some brain food, something, anything.
Not just on Instagram real.
Watch something that makes it think and makes you wonder.
Or just stare at the wall for 15 minutes.
Or do that.
Yeah, reset your dopamine receptors.
stared at a tree.
Jackson told me he did this thing at work one day where he just stared at a plant and said,
I am the plant, I am the plant over and over for like 10 minutes.
I want to finish off.
I want to finish off on this.
I had a walk at the beach super late at night.
And I walked all the way down and all the way back.
And that was the most craziest hypnotic you would ever be in your fucking life.
It was insane.
Actually insane.
Night beach walks are it.
He also drank a tea.
H.C. drink. No, he did not.
No, he did not. He had a little cheeky modello.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. We can't end yet. One more thing.
Um, so, Grunk, remember
when you and Nick and Jackson accepted that one
special gift from someone on the fucking street?
Oh!
Yeah. So, oh my God.
So it turns out, uh, that dumbhead over here
at a gas station, there was a lady that walked up.
She had a great cool dog. Her name was Kiwi. Shout out Kiwi. Kiwi's mom.
if you're reading this, thank you for the two mysterious blunts you gave to us from Colorado.
We will not tell anyone.
Like mysterious do.
They weren't mysterious.
They weren't.
They were so nearly packed.
They smoked weed that this random lady at a gas station gave them that had a cool dog.
And they gave it to Larry and Larry didn't know until the next day.
He was like, I told him.
I was like, yeah, dude, I can't believe you guys smoked that weed.
I didn't know it was from a stranger.
That was horrible.
And I haven't.
And I also hadn't, like, that was the first time.
I was like, you know what?
Fuck, hey.
The stars are out.
camping. It was so beautiful.
I was like, fuck it. And then the next day I got told that, I was like,
wow. To be fair. Wow.
My own friends. Larry.
My own fucking friends.
First of all, we thought you saw because you were standing right there.
But second of all, she also, not to
incriminate Ms. Kiwi's mom.
She smoked one right in front of us.
Okay, but people can be doing shit. You never fucking know.
You still don't know.
Hey, don't you, don't you dare to, yeah.
You guys are so dumb.
It's life.
It's life.
You're so dumb.
We're so dumb.
We're crashing out, crash out podcast.
Dude, rule number one of

from strangers.
Like, now I can't do it from...
They have a really good vibe.
Yeah, their vibe.

My God.
Okay, well...
