Starting point is 00:00:00 We're hot. We're hot. We are, we are... Zip says we're hot. As if we're in some sort of flame. As if we're, we're dachsing in some flame. That work? Bandom dags.
Starting point is 00:00:28 Bannum dags. What are you guys talking about? Well, we have to get out all of the niche, very modern streaming references now in case he doesn't get them. Okay. Because we have a very fucked up life where no one understands. I can't believe that Jason killed his girlfriend. We're going to have a 45 segment where I explained Jekura to our next guest. And the future replacement of Aiden on this podcast forever.
Starting point is 00:00:55 Dax Flay! Oh, no. All right. Wow, he stops halfway down. It's okay. We gotta grease the slide. We gotta get, yeah, we gotta oil up the slide. Or we just have water perpetually going down. Is that a problem, if we covered you an oil,
Starting point is 00:01:09 would that be a problem for you, Dax? Um, like for the, for the slide. Yeah, for the slide, yeah. Yeah, I don't think I would wanna do that. Okay, yeah, fair enough. Fine, fine, all right. God, I love seeing you in that chair specifically, because you don't, you haven't met him,
Starting point is 00:01:24 but we have a friend named Aiden who usually sits in that chair. And it would just be so much better, if it was you. You're doing such a better job already. I would like to, yeah, I would love to be a part of the show. I guess they're hired. You're happy. Welcome. Because here's the thing.
Starting point is 00:01:41 What's his reputation? Oh, well, if he was there right now, he'd probably be on his phone. Oh! We would have started the show. Kind of like we're hosts of it a little bit. And he, almost like he's a guest on the show, would be on his phone not participating. But you
Starting point is 00:01:55 immediately, boom. If I were to give you tasting notes of Aden, I would say emotionally, mature intelligent, young obscene, almost like a hard worker. And then bad at Counterstrike, that's the base note. That's the foundation of everything
Starting point is 00:02:11 that makes him, him. How good are you at Counterstrike? Bad also. Okay, well, welcome to show. I haven't played it, so I don't know. That's about the same as him. Well, on top potential, then. You could be better than Aden.
Starting point is 00:02:21 Could be. Can I ask you a question? Yeah, because I just want to rewind. Why are you here? Well, because I met you at the store and then, so then I, I messaged you, I think, right? And then, and then people had asked me to come on here before, but then the first time I'd heard about y'all was someone said that I took one of y'all's idea about parking meters, but that would me. I hadn't, I didn't know that before.
Starting point is 00:02:59 I didn't know that before. Have you made anywhere upwards of like a million dollars from that idea? I haven't made any money off of the idea. It was just something I did to save other people money. Yeah, it was a selfless thing that lost money maybe. Yeah, just like $5 maybe. Yeah. You probably approached it wrong.
Starting point is 00:03:15 Are you sure you stole the exact idea for me? I don't know what your idea specifically was. What I did was just pay a few people's meters that had run out so that they wouldn't get parking tickets. Because L.A. parking is really expensive. I'll catch up to speed on just that one, and we can go back. He once said, I have a million dollar idea for you. We can make parking free in L.A. For a day.
Starting point is 00:03:39 For a day. Imagine. Like a Mr. Beast-esque. I made parking free in L.A. for a whole day. And I have porcelain teeth. Right? I didn't think that idea was good because I didn't understand how to make money. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:52 So was your idea to make money off of it? About a million dollars, yeah. I thought they would generate so much hype and potentially love in the hearts of citizens across all of Los Angeles in a time where we need it most, and that that would somehow convert into money. Like you would do a GoFundMe?
Starting point is 00:04:11 Dude, I made parking free. Wait, I have a real million dollar idea. Okay. We just lie. We make a GoFundMe, we lie. Make it GoFund me, let's make parking free in L.A. Yeah, if this hits a million dollars, parking is free in L.A. forever.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Yeah, I mean. GoFund me. And then we just. Why? Isn't it, aren't people still paying for parking, though? No, no, no, no. They're still having to pay. He's defrauding everyone. We would act like we are the the Los Angeles local government doing a go fund. Right, but let me explain this. Even if this weren't a scam, everyone is still paying an amount of money to get parking forever. Guy who rents his car. It's the same thing as owning it. It's not free. You're,
Starting point is 00:04:48 so I'm also right. Right. But I guess it's pooled by people who might not park. I guess it is. Yeah, yeah. Someone in Hungary could do this. They could contribute to the GoFundMe, get scammed. I've got some scammed again. People who just A, can also contribute. This is open to everyone. Let's just wrap it up. It's a horrible idea, and tax agrees.
Starting point is 00:05:06 But this really is only happening because we happen to meet in a grocery store. Um, yeah, that, uh, I think that sometimes in life you just don't, yeah, sometimes really small things can lead to unexpected things. So, yeah. Dang. And then you asked him specifically later on in life,
Starting point is 00:05:25 in life in your human experience to come on this podcast. Yes. Why? Well, people had said you should go on there a couple times, messaged me,
Starting point is 00:05:38 and then I just like going on podcasts and so randomly the other day it just popped into my head and I messaged and I was like, I don't know if that's, this is a weird question, but can I go on your podcast? No, it made my whole day better.
Starting point is 00:05:51 I have a question that maybe helps your question. Have you ever said no to a podcast? Yes. Uh, yes, because I used to hate going on them. Oh. But then this year I've been trying to.
Starting point is 00:06:03 So this year you've changed into being someone who really likes going on them. Yeah. What happened? I just have been pushing myself outside of my, like out, I've just been pushing outside of that more. The comfort zone. Yeah, yeah. Dude, you should go on, it's called fresh and fit. I think you would be.
Starting point is 00:06:22 I think his perspective would be. Um, is that the, I think that, is that the one that's like very, um, maybe like, bro type? Mm-hmm. That's exactly the one. It would be the bros, and then it's usually some, um, porn stars. Okay. And then they converse about how they have disagreements. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:06:46 But usually there's like nine porn stars. Yes, and two bros. And two bros. I guess you could be the third bro. So it's like, or, you know, you're, can maybe see what the other side is like from their perspective. And Dax Flame, excellent male porn star name. No, that was not intentional, but that is, I mean, that works.
Starting point is 00:07:04 Is that a God-Given name? Oh, no, no, that's a stage name. Oh, okay. A stage name you created when you were 10? 15. 15? Yeah. Dang, that's crazy.
Starting point is 00:07:15 The stage name I came up with when I was 15. I would have been like Poop Slayer. Mine was Pussy Slayer. Yeah. That was the name I made. There's two wolves inside of a home. I abandoned mine because it was crass
Starting point is 00:07:26 yeah you're setting yourself up as like not a underdog yeah yeah maybe an over like people would like not like you yeah that did end up happening still
Starting point is 00:07:40 regardless of the name which is a shame you said when we walked in the room you said I have one thought and you said should I save it for the show that was about the parking meters I was like should I wait? Yeah I wanted to ask you about that but I didn't know if you wanted me to wait
Starting point is 00:07:54 Can I ask you, what do you think of Ludwig in terms of, like, your interface with it, like, not meeting him in a grocery store and stuff, but like, what was your general idea of this guy from the internet? Okay, I had heard about you before, and then, but I didn't know exactly how just maybe streaming. Then, more recently, I've gotten into watching people open Pokemon cards, so I've watched you open Pokemon cards. I really love to watch that. Whoa. and then I'd played I started playing chess last year so then your robot is on chess.com
Starting point is 00:08:28 Oh yeah, yeah so I'd play your... You have a chess bot? I have a chess bot, yeah. Is it dog shit? No, no, he's 1200. Do people just mug the chess pot? He's 1200.
Starting point is 00:08:36 That would have been before playing or watching Pokemon though. I started to play chess early last year then I started to watch people open Pokemon cards and then I met you at the grocery store and so... That's so crazy. Yeah, I was playing your chess bot.
Starting point is 00:08:52 and then I ran into it at the grocery store and I thought I should go on your podcast. Yeah, that is an L.A. story picture. You, Mr. Beast, ex-QC. Yeah. Oh. And maybe a couple other streamers.
Starting point is 00:09:06 I think I'm 1,200. Did you beat me? I think so. I'm not 1,200 when I play against real people, but it's easier to beat the bots. Yeah, I'm a little predictable. I'm a lot with the infinite time as well. Eric Repridges.
Starting point is 00:09:18 Dang. Yeah, I think we talked about it before on the pod, but the grocery store, I saw you and is, I mean, probably I think it's the first time I've gone up to somebody who I saw in public who I recognized and I said, hey, I just, I like what you do and then, and that was all. And then I, and then I vanished. That was my whole plan. And then I probably said like, thank you. Yeah. Then you said thank you. And I had red hair because I died it red because of a rockathon we did. So then I went and looked up your most
Starting point is 00:09:51 recent YouTube video to see if you had red hair in it and you did. So that's when I messaged you. I see. Yeah. If he didn't have it in the video, what would you have done? Just thought it was someone who I thought looked like him. Oh my God. I mean, that's fair. It's fair. Yeah, yeah. So many stars had to align. I mean, I said it looks like
Starting point is 00:10:06 Ludwig. Oh, guess it wasn't. I guess it wasn't him. And you were wearing the same hockey jersey in the video. So that's how I knew. Oh, yeah. Yeah. When I wear some, it's like, it gets two days out of me. Are you are you often recognized? These days more so, yeah. These days more so.
Starting point is 00:10:23 Oh, yeah, especially if I go to the mall or something. A lot of like high school or college age people will recognize me. What's the most common thing from? Is it from TikTok and Instagram, I think. Wow. When was the shift for you of like Project X 21 Jump Street to TikTok? Like at what point did people recognize you from TikTok instead? The past year and a half.
Starting point is 00:10:46 Wow. That makes sense. Yeah, it does make sense. Because you're TikTok's in Reels rule. Thank you. Mr. Flame, can I ask you a question? Yes. When, so was 21 jumps at your first?
Starting point is 00:10:56 No, it was probably Project X was like your first like movie, right? Yes. I did. I get clowned on this show. I'm 35 and I never really watched a lot of YouTube in the sort of the formative years of YouTube and all this the past like 15 years or something. So I get clown because I don't know who like David Getta is. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:14 You know, I don't know who all these people are. They told me that David. David Ghetto was a Roblox YouTuber. I believed them. We convinced him of that, yeah. It was crazy. So actually, I've listened to maybe 30 minutes of this podcast, and it was the one from last week, so I heard that.
Starting point is 00:11:30 You heard that? Yeah. That was real. We don't not play it up. In those 30 minutes quickly, did you form a favorite? Well, I could only hear the voices, so I don't know who was here. Yeah. But I know that you seem nice, because now I know.
Starting point is 00:11:45 Change your opinion? No. Life is beautiful Awesome So what kind of things Do you all like Prefer to talk about Most on here
Starting point is 00:11:55 And like Oh whatever Oh science, math We talk about science and math And all kinds of sciences Chemicals Amazing ideas Amazing ideas
Starting point is 00:12:02 Yeah million dollars worth And then I don't When I said I've only Listen to 30 minutes I didn't mean I don't really listen to any podcast So I don't mean that In like a
Starting point is 00:12:11 Yeah Oh please But no offense taken None at all Anyone who listens to this show should be probably put in a jail for 10 years, minimum sentence, and then maximum sentence forever. Yep.
Starting point is 00:12:24 But I guess it's probably a common question you get, but how did you, they'd like, they just scoop you up and put you in movies? Or did you scoop yourself up and put you in movies? Yeah, there was an open casting call for Project X, so then I just got to submit a tape from Texas, and then I got to act in it two weeks after high school. So they flew me out.
Starting point is 00:12:46 to audition. Two weeks after high school? Yeah. Yeah. Oh my God. Because in 20 Jump Street is like one of my favorite movies and you're really good in it. Thank you. I was like, that's the guy from 21 Jump Street. And you guys are like, yeah, he's more than, he's done more than that. And I'm like, stop judging me.
Starting point is 00:13:02 Stop telling me what truth is. Yeah. And would you guys act in any movies or like to have you all acted in movies? Well. Oh, well, we just got it a little, our first role. Very, you know, I won't call it flex. Because it's potentially, well, we're acting. alongside Eric Rayhill, who's going to be in the new office.
Starting point is 00:13:21 They're extras. What are you talking about? Yeah, we got adding context. They're extras. What are you talking about? In what? We don't even know what it's called. We had a friend shooting like a short and he was like, hey, come be angry guys in a bar.
Starting point is 00:13:36 We're like, yes. Cool. So, yeah. Well, we're not angry. We're preventing people from fighting. We're holding people back. We're spreading love in a bar, yeah. But I think this is probably the beginning, you know, you're an actor.
Starting point is 00:13:45 This is probably the beginning. of a long career of many roles. Well, is that how it works? It feels hard to get a movie role. Yeah. Yeah. It doesn't feel like you do one. Maybe I hadn't done anything.
Starting point is 00:13:59 So do you think that you, do you want them to have a successful movie career? Do I want them to be successful? That's a great question. You change it to be so much for broad. And why did you not, why were you not in it as well? I wasn't asked. I wasn't asked. I've yet to, I've,
Starting point is 00:14:16 I've got nothing. I've never been in a movie. No one's ever wanted me. I think they think I'm one note. And do I want them to be successful? I don't want one of them to be successful. Wait, a specific one or just one of us in general? Just one of you two, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:29 You don't care which one? No, I do. I would love to hear which one. Yeah. You would not. What? You don't want him to be successful? Come on.
Starting point is 00:14:40 I want Nick to have a budding movie career. Why him and not me? Do you cry in command? No. Damn. Why him and not me? I just think, I think you'd be, I think you'd be more insufferable. What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:14:56 How would I be insufferable? Have you were, he'd be insufferable. I'm imagining at heroin every other day instead of every other day. I'm imagining if you were, oh, actually, maybe you're right. I was imagining which one of you, if you were Brad Pitt famous, would be more insufferable. Dude, I would live the exact same way. I live all the, and I'd be like Bert Reynolds and I'd steal water in my truck.
Starting point is 00:15:15 What would y'all's dream roles be? Oh, great question. Mad men, again. They just, they wipe madmen clean. Yeah. I want to be, I want to be cast as Jack Harlow in a biopic about Jack Harlow. Oh, that's a great answer. So he's a rapper.
Starting point is 00:15:34 Yeah. Okay, I shouldn't assume you didn't know that. Do I like him a lot? I'm inspired by him. I don't know if I like him a lot. But I think he's the dopeest white boy doing it. And I think that's controversial. but I think I could live
Starting point is 00:15:47 I think I could live up to that role. Have you tried to get in contact with him? Jack, if you're watching. Please, dude. He'd probably play himself. He's a good actor. Like Billy Mitchell?
Starting point is 00:16:00 Oh, fucking stupid. You might be older than him, actually. I might be older than him, actually. I think you are. You're 100% older. Because he has one song, he likes, call me 24, but I'm still a baby. Can you look up Jack Harlow age?
Starting point is 00:16:10 That would be tough. No, he's probably like 26. I want to make you older than him. I would want to be Bellamy in the season three of the live action One Piece. What's your dream role? 27. 27. Damn,
Starting point is 00:16:25 dude, he sucks. Drewski's 30? Damn, I'm older than... Yeah, what is your dream role? Told you cat. Maybe it would be cool to be like a superhero type, but I don't think that that's what I would get cast as. However, you never know. So, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:16:42 What kind of superhero? Do you have a preference? Iron Man Spider-Man You wouldn't be Spider-Man I think that would work The Dobs flame Spider-Man That would be money
Starting point is 00:16:52 I feel like People would come out And they'd be like Man that's the best Peter Park We ever seen Thank you Yeah How are you
Starting point is 00:17:00 When people are like Do people ever poke you And they're like Oh Superman meme Like do you get tired of that It doesn't happen that often Just a couple times recently when I'm like
Starting point is 00:17:10 On stage And I Well a couple times I've been trying to practice coming back for roasts so I've asked the audience to roast me and then a couple people shouted like Superman a couple of those times it's not even a roast it's like part of your magna mokas yeah yeah well it's not really a roast there's and it's really specific to just a maybe two people in the crowd know that so I I just kind of wait until someone else shouted something you um
Starting point is 00:17:37 you've been doing a lot of stand-up comedy okay you're also branching into podcast what what are your goals right It's not a movie related it feels like I'm just trying to figure that out Yeah okay It's normal It you don't have to have it all figured out Guys like me and Dax In our 30s
Starting point is 00:17:56 You have a podcast that you're on Like this is pissant shit to me But do you make a lot of money He asked it like he knows the answer Well I do ask you I don't know how it's split up Is the only thing so I don't know Assuming that I make nothing
Starting point is 00:18:13 I've done something horrible The loan is 98%. And the rest of us, there's a big dog bowl and we have to use our mouths. To eat the $1.00 bills. We made it equal ownership. So then he's not, why would he leave the podcast,
Starting point is 00:18:28 the guy who I'm sitting in for? He's asking such amazing question. Yeah, he gets right to the fucking part every time. He was like, where's the other guy? Doesn't even remember his name because why would you? And I'm like, he's in Sweden. The first thing he said, why? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Just like that. Well, you said he's moving, trying to move to Sweden. I was curious about that because I think it would be a cool place to visit but I don't know why you would randomly move there. I agree with you. He likes the...
Starting point is 00:18:51 He likes the culture. He doesn't like PewDie Pie, I don't think. I think he likes the culture. I think he likes the ethnic makeup and he likes the weather. He's really interested in the homogeneity of... Homogeneity.
Starting point is 00:19:07 He talks about it all the time. Every other episode, you're lucky you missed it when you did your listen because he can't stop talking about how it's what he called it a white paradise yeah yeah yeah all the time yeah so with a dash chalayan are you all roasting him like that he's a racist or is he actually yes yeah dax the lines are blurry no it's hard he's really he's seen through us well i i don't want him to feel concerned that he's sitting in for a racist guy and this whole time he's like oh god have i got on the
Starting point is 00:19:37 wrong podcast yeah that's fair no he just really loves sweden it's not super um it's not super obvious why it's not reasonable yeah it's a yearning I think do you have like an obsession with something or does it pass through like Pokemon cards maybe I don't know if you're obsessed with Pokemon cards but like no
Starting point is 00:19:57 I just like to watch the I like to watch the deep pocket monster TikTok or you know oh yeah is that the guy who does the should I open it yeah or should I keep it sealed yeah yeah the Max Mofo fell off Max Mofo just stopped making Pokemon opening videos yeah was kind of the goat for a while
Starting point is 00:20:13 He was consistent, but then, like, he only uploads around November, December because the ad revenue is higher. That's beast. What, what, that's awesome? What were you the most obsessed with ever? I guess just making video. I like to make video. Yeah. Yeah, it makes sense.
Starting point is 00:20:30 Yeah, it does feel like you have a boundless drive for that, because you're so consistent, and it must be hard creatively and also vulnerability-wise, no? Uh, well, yeah, sometimes you have to figure out new things to do. So in the last year, I've been doing stand-up videos, things that, like, try to brighten people's day, such as the parking meter. It would brighten the lives of many, I think. He was trying to brighten people's day. You were trying to make a million dollars. That's the difference.
Starting point is 00:21:01 Well, you would have to do it. If you wanted to make a million dollars, you would have to do it, like, if you said Mr. Beath. Yeah. So you'd have to make it a really viral video that you put an ad on. Yeah, I almost felt like that work would do. the work for itself it would go viral off of the virality of love kindness mine got a lot of views doing that did it oh i did it on ticot less than a minute long so i didn't make any money on oh see that's the problem that's the problem are you are is ticot you get a good amount of views on
Starting point is 00:21:29 ticot yeah yeah does that not make a lot of money uh well not all of my videos are over a minute long so yeah last month i made like two hundred dollars but i typically average like Well, for the past year and a half, like $4,000 a month. So that's been great, but I have been doing shorter videos. But how does your typical... What's his name again who sits here? Aiden. Aiden.
Starting point is 00:21:59 What is he typically like? Oh. Should I try to provide more to that? How about this? I would love that. How about we paint a picture of Aiden and then for the next couple of minutes, Dax will try to beat Aiden? Well, let's be honest, though.
Starting point is 00:22:13 think we were maybe characterizing Hayden. Okay, well, we could be more, we could be a more emotionally mature, you're saying?
Starting point is 00:22:21 Yeah, yeah, he wants, he has a tail. Yeah, sorry, no, he doesn't have a tail.
Starting point is 00:22:26 It's a nubby one. It's not like a, like a fox tail. It's like a nubby weird tail. He wants it an episode of this podcast by himself, and he brought himself to tears just by his own words
Starting point is 00:22:36 speaking about his friends. It was pathetic. It was touching. He, Aden's the most normal of the lot. See, Ludwig, Ludwig, Ludwig is a bit of an emotional husk.
Starting point is 00:22:47 I have unhealthy obsession with, with, uh, with, uh, work. And slime fused the entire world's value through the lens of comedy and almost nothing else. Aiden is the most normal of the four of us, where if one of us was in an Uber and had to talk to the driver and appear to not be strange,
Starting point is 00:23:06 it would, we throw Aiden in. Because Aiden can, he, he is excited to meet everybody and he, uh, has the most friends. Which is why he has excellent stories. And so he has many stories. He's very well traveled. He hates living in the United States. He wants to live anywhere else.
Starting point is 00:23:21 Okay. However, he is addicted to his phone and probably also porn, which is, I'm guessing there. But he's on the phone so damn much. There must be porn playing on the phone. There must be porn somewhere involved in that equation. Often when we start the podcast, he's very bad at doing two things at once. So if he's on his phone and I say, hey, Aden, he just won't hear me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:41 It's crazy. He's very locked in. It's as if he has had fun. phones on. So should I try to pretend it to be him for a while? I would like that. Yeah. How long? Um, you know what? Let's go into it and just feels like naturally we should stop. Okay. Uh, and we'll treat you like Aiden. Okay. Okay. Also voted for Trump five times in the last election. Yeah. Okay. And action. Seen. Or not seen. Sorry. And action. All right guys, welcome back to the yard.
Starting point is 00:24:04 Um, Aiden, how is Sweden? Awesome. I'm, but I'm super grateful to be back with my friends. I mean, don't get nice. You're a little too. Yeah. What note was you? Aiden, put the fucking phone away. Do you see a bunch of white people that you're excited to see, or? Aidan, we're doing the podcast. Dude, Aid, we're going to plan, we're going to go to Sweden soon.
Starting point is 00:24:27 We're going to go to France as a group. Aidan, I'm an Uber driver. Wow, there's nothing locked in. He's so locked into his phone. Yeah, we should, we should behead him. I went on atriarch stream recently. scene that's
Starting point is 00:24:44 seen wow for a moment I was there yeah I can't it sounds like we're fucking with you that was scarily accurate

Starting point is 00:25:36 Oh wow We played against each other And I beat him so badly That he lost 500 It wasn't so badly. It was a past fail. It was win loss. Wow.
Starting point is 00:25:43 It wasn't badly. Did you let him win game three? Huh? Do you let him win game three? Just be honest, bro. I genuinely didn't. He smiled a little bit when I asked. You see that?
Starting point is 00:25:49 You see the smile creeping out of his body? He can't live with it. You cheated on a mogus and you let me win game three? I didn't. All right. There we go. Can I ask you something? And this is a vulnerable ask.
Starting point is 00:26:02 You can say no. Okay. Yeah, you can ask me. Can I look? You an iPhone? What? Do you have an iPhone? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:09 Can I look at your most used apps? Yeah, sure. I'm just curious over the past. You want to see the screen time? Yeah, screen time. How do I go there? Just go to the search bar and type screen time. Yep.
Starting point is 00:26:22 It'll pop up. Oh, my God. I'm so curious. I am also curious. It was itching at me the moment you said I looked on Reddit. Oh, I don't have that app. That's fair. How do you do it?
Starting point is 00:26:36 I just go on Safari to look at Reddit. That's good. Aiding goes on Safari. use Twitter instead of having the app. I don't have Twitter on my phone at all. That's good. Okay. Okay. Let's hear it. Let's hear it. Let's hear it. Let's hear it. Okay. First off. You're not on the phone too much.
Starting point is 00:26:52 How many hours? Uh, four hours a day. Okay. That's reasonable. That is reasonable. And it's, and it's, I think it's all work. It's nine hours on Instagram, seven hours on TikTok. Oh, you're like reels. Uh, you're watching reels. Actually, not really. I watch TikTok. talk more, but I do watch Reels some. How the hell are you spending nine hours on Instagram?
Starting point is 00:27:13 Actually, I don't know. I mean, this is normal. The weirdest one is that you're on Gmail for two hours. Yeah, I guess that is weird. Guy who people are begging him to check his fucking email. Why are you on Gmail? I thought Gmail was kind of dead in a way, no? What are you talking about?
Starting point is 00:27:30 Okay, something really fucked up. Okay, so I was logged into my bank app recently, and they took my account that has the most amount of money in it, and they put an app. under the money. That's crazy. It's insane. So okay, paint this picture.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Okay, what are you talking about that? So in your bank account you have like checking, savings, whatever. The account that had the most money in the actual tab, under the money, there was a hyperlink to buy tickets to like a concert. I don't remember the artist. It was some like Vegas style like mega show. Chin Lim. And I was like unbelievable. There's an ad in my bank in my checking.
Starting point is 00:28:08 It's not a big. side banner. I might be able to just pull it up. It's on bank. Let's shoot the CEO on the head. Dax flame, do you endorse that behavior? I don't know anything about CEO. He made more context. I mean like Luigi Mangione type
Starting point is 00:28:25 stuff? Yeah, yeah. That's kind of what he's suggesting, yeah. Actually, I did a stand-up joke recently about him. Let me think. I'd love to hear it. Wait, I think I can't remember if I lead into it. Oh, okay. Should I tell you? Yeah, please.
Starting point is 00:28:41 Did you guys hear about Luigi Mangione? I did. Yeah. Yeah. That was like a liberal crowd. Wait, actually don't do that. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:28:48 Okay, sorry, I won't do anything. Did you guys hear about Luigi Mangioni? Mm-hmm. It killed a CEO. So that's the joke is like, you already know. You think I'm going to say something new. We actually don't do that.
Starting point is 00:29:04 So the other one is that's kind of related, is the giving people the chair used to be a really popular form of punishment until they outlawed it in like the 40s or 70s or something but I think that a free chair seems like more of a reward than a punishment.
Starting point is 00:29:22 Yeah, let's go. Very Stephen Wright. Well, actually, yeah, someone else came up with that joke for me. Oh, you got some writers. Well, whenever I was backstage at the comedy show they said, if I come up with a joke for you, will you tell it?
Starting point is 00:29:36 So I said yes and then told it. That happened to me. this weekend I went to a big smash tournament and someone came up and said hey I got one for you we have a friend whose tag is shake drizzle okay and he said I got one for you cake jiggle okay and I said I'm gonna use that and I'm gonna credit you but I don't remember their name okay so it's mine and that's how it works that's show business well it's mine now I I guess so I guess so I guess so I guess so well I have a question okay so you did a lot of YouTube right And then he's big on TikTok.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Is this correct? He's big on TikTok and Instagram. In the past year, I've gotten more popular on TikTok and Instagram. It's actually a beautiful spectrum. So I know so much about what you used to make. He knows everything about what you currently make. And he doesn't know really anything at all.
Starting point is 00:30:24 I know that he was wonderful in 21 Drumstreet. We are a decent history of Dax Flame. If we were combining our brains, we would have your career on lock. So do you, so I'm like kind of a, I'm a curmudgeon. and I feel like YouTube videos are like something that was really cool
Starting point is 00:30:40 and then TikTok feels like a weird version of that that I don't really I guess I don't respect as much for arbitrary reasons I don't think that's a correct thing to think but I feel it and do you do you not care about that
Starting point is 00:30:52 you're like oh TikTok's just another form of videos? Yeah I don't care about that kind of thing but I also don't I think that anyone can have any opinion so I'm not you're not judging me yeah sure but you never ran into like
Starting point is 00:31:07 when the things change did you ever get frustrated or you're just like whatever well I was not relevant on YouTube by the time it changed or whatever yeah what's your opinion on the shift if you think that there is one of YouTube in general like my outlook on
Starting point is 00:31:25 it is like when you first started making videos to now those are two very different websites true like the videos are different the like thumbnails like the presentation of video, the goal of the user. Like to me now, YouTube is like an attempt at getting a job. And before it was like an attempt to just express yourself.
Starting point is 00:31:45 Like, oh, I just have it. I'm just going to put this thing on the internet. Yeah. What are your thoughts on that? Well, it can still be that for anyone. But yeah, maybe now it's more like if you go viral, then you would think like, oh, am I going to be on Ellen or something like that? And whereas back like after the yodeling kid and stuff like that.
Starting point is 00:32:01 Yeah. But then back, and then if you would go viral, it would just be like a weird thing. and then that's but yeah yeah I don't I'm not like this I'm not the most articulate when it comes to like talking about the differences of that kind of thing like some people are able to say like oh yeah whatever they can't even play the role of the articulate I think I think even if you don't feel like you're articulate I think you have like you have a outlook on it that almost no one else could possibly have your perspective well yeah if you used it back then you could tell it felt different in terms of like it just felt like you
Starting point is 00:32:38 would like because you could send messages to people too yeah and then oh yeah you could uh which you can do on instagram and stuff now but you used to be able to do it on youtube and then you can also um like you could uh do the community page but it was like on your main page so it felt just a little more like a message board mixed with video making and then you could do response videos did you prefer that or this well ignoring your status in the world in that moment like yeah different things have like different advantages so it's probably more fun back then like in terms of just like more carefree but then it's also like people can make a living on it now and stuff yeah yeah I think that's a balance take who's the
Starting point is 00:33:21 most famous person of your contacts um well actually Jack Harlow did um ask someone for my phone number a few months ago and then texted me can you just in if you have ever happens to you again with any rapper you just give him my number he's the only rapper who's no no actually well okay actually yeah he's the only rapper who's messaged me but then jing van message him he just doesn't want to say it no i don't know i don't know king vaugh but jpeg mafia uh i was in his music video and then he followed me but i didn't we didn't message at all wow so you and jack boys now no um uh he just was like we should hang out at some point oh you would be better than me in the jack harlowe biopic yeah you'd be so
Starting point is 00:34:03 You know what, let the best actor win. I'm okay, yeah. Cast it, yeah. Audition. We can go cast for cast. So he's probably the number one most famous person in my contacts, but what about y'all? I don't know if I have famous people
Starting point is 00:34:19 like contacts. Actual famous people, I'll go through, I'll check. Ludwig's mom. She's fucking go. She's a retired woman. Yeah, most beautiful woman in the world. On the planet. She's beautiful, but she's a retired friendship.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Spanish teacher. Cool. Because she's appeared on this podcast, which I gives her some notoriety. But I don't think she's the most famous person in your context. I would, I would agree. If Floodwig isn't in your context? That's also true. You think she's more famous? He's just a phone number in my phone. I've never, I've never commit, because I'm not really sure. You guys are being jerks
Starting point is 00:34:49 because he answered the question real, and you guys are just saying my mom. What are you talking about? He answered the question real, and you just said, my mom. Are you all just trying to be modest? Because the answer is you, you stupid piece of shit. He's trying to say something subvertive. Famous to me, Freddy Wong. That's for me. Yeah, I think he is the most famous.
Starting point is 00:35:10 But I guess, I don't know, Asa. Issa Butterfield? Oh, he's in your phone? Yeah. That's crazy. He's an actor. Okay. He was a child actor.
Starting point is 00:35:18 And then he was in sex ed on Netflix. There's so many people. Famous also for being on The Yard podcast. Oh, cool. He was on your one. We went to the UK to shoot with him once. I have squeaks in here. Mine's Mr. Beast.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Oh, wow. Awesome. I don't have Mr. Beast number. Are you all friends? Yeah, it's a, it's an interesting relationship, I think, when you're friends with another creator. Because I don't think I, I don't think I know his middle name. You know Jimmy? I don't think it's Jimmy Jimmy Jimmy.
Starting point is 00:35:51 I think Jimmy's. Sir Jimmy Beast. Knighted by the queen. He got so, he was like, it's Mr. Jimmy Beast. It's so cute with it. And I think. I think that makes it hard to be friends with creators. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:36:07 I always, I like to put up a wall. I think I have like... You should send, if I write a text to him, will you send it? I would send any text you want, yeah. Oh, really? Yeah, yeah, do you want to think of one? Yeah. What's your middle name?
Starting point is 00:36:19 You want to text to Mr. Lee's, what's your middle name? You're going to spend your one? Actually, wait, maybe if you just have one, I'll think of something else. Okay. Stay tuned until the end of the episode to find out, and then I'll come up with it. Okay. I'm going to hold this. That's ancient.
Starting point is 00:36:33 YouTube tech work. That's new tech. That's Mr. Beast advice. That's watch retention. Yeah. Right. I thought maybe you had an ancient. And then you put at the beginning, you say, oh my God, I can't wait to send Mr.
Starting point is 00:36:44 or I can't believe I just sent that text to Mr. Beast. Yep. And people are watching this all the way through. Also, everyone put your foot on the fireplace. Last take it off gets a car. Oh, that's what we can do that too. Can I use it as like a way to like self promo or like try to get him to like, hey, me and a bunch of people are going to post a are going to post Dax Flames
Starting point is 00:37:04 most recent TikTok today would you go in on this with us? I'll do, I can send him anything. Okay. If you want me to call him a slur, I'll do it. Oh, wow. You said off camera, you wanted that to you want. No, no, no.
Starting point is 00:37:19 I was thinking more like if I was going to the like code red, it would be you sending a penis photo to it. Okay. But my own penis? Yeah. But I would have. actually make you do that because that would be awful for him as well. Yeah, because he could be a treat for him. Maybe he was always curious. Yeah. But you guys don't talk enough. Yeah. And that's the problem. That is the problem is that like I would know if you guys would like to see it. Can I also post a tweet from your Twitter? You want to post a tweet? Yeah, why not? Okay, awesome. What would you say? What would you do? What would you use that power for? I don't know. I'll think of some fun things. Okay. And can I do something with y'all's phones or Twitter? Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Everything on my phone, yeah, of course. Cool, when should I start? Honestly, we can see who gets the most likes. Do you want to run it right now? Okay. Yeah. Okay, I'll give you, do you want my Twitter or Mr. Bees? Or maybe in two minutes, so I could...
Starting point is 00:38:11 Okay, take two minutes. We'll give you two. And we'll have it full access. Just stay tuned for the next couple minutes. Stay tuned for the next 30 seconds. Can I ask you, have you ever seen one piece? I've never seen it, but I've seen, like, the characters, and it's a popular trading cards as well.
Starting point is 00:38:28 It is. So you're in a trading card? Only watching people open them. So you don't open Pokemon cars yourself? Well, I have bought a few packs. I think I've spent a total of like $40. Oh, wow. So what stops you from like going all like wailing out?
Starting point is 00:38:43 Like there's a dopamine response of watching people open them, but you yourself don't, it sounds like you don't love opening. Because it's really disappointing because it's like the ones you watch are like usually fun. And then you spend money and then you open it and you're like, oh, that I just have a bunch of like empty like. Polywags. Yeah, and then it's just, I wasted my money. Okay. Yeah, you miss so often.
Starting point is 00:39:06 Yeah. More than not. That's why the videos of people hitting are popular. Yeah, and why we pull such insane stuff, because maybe we will hit. So you're not a gambler, you don't gamble. Um, no. Yeah, that makes sense. Who's your, uh, who's your favorite, who's your favorite creators to watch?
Starting point is 00:39:25 Do you watch any deep pocket monster? Okay. A recent. favorite. Do you have any long time favorites? Not really, but my friends, uh, Joel Haver. Yeah, uh, the talentless writer, uh, Trent Linkarsky, those are some YouTubers I, that are my friends that I like. Cool. Yeah. Dax Flame, what's your favorite movie ever? I don't have one. Ever? Yeah. Really? Are you a movie buff, you think? Uh, no. You're not going to theaters often or? Not that often. Do you, what's a, what's a, what's a movie that you really, really like? I'm trying to think of what I've seen. Oh, uh,
Starting point is 00:39:59 Well, in the past year, I watched Anora, that was really good. Anora? Yeah. A Nora's fire. It's a heavy one. Yeah, it's a heavy one. It's a heavy one. It's a good movie. It's a good movie.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Dude, imagine it's like a Nora. It's like Dax Flame. I would give it a thumbs up. I would recommend it. It's good. It is. It's a great movie. But I haven't seen Superman.
Starting point is 00:40:25 I like it. I haven't either. Should I do the tweet? Yes. Are you ready? Oh, you have them? This is mine. How did you do that?
Starting point is 00:40:31 You did both of those things at once. You thought of the movie and thought of the tweets. I haven't thought of the tweets. Oh, okay. But I thought it was been about two minutes. Yeah, yeah. What type of subject matter are you comfortable with and how, like, it, what can you give me some guidelines? Yeah, I would say, I would say, um, mostly concerned about, uh, something that could be too crass.
Starting point is 00:40:58 so I wouldn't post my penis on Twitter. I guess it's not a free country. That's for a Chad from anything for views to do. Yeah, yeah. You know, there's kids that follow me. That's the only reason. And then maybe something, like I wouldn't. Nothing negative about other people in the world.
Starting point is 00:41:18 Not even that necessarily. I wouldn't, I just wouldn't promote, like, Hitler. I know, anything else man? I mean, it's a pretty small list. Oh, and it has to be a banger and you have to be able to put a fucking manscate that on it? I'm just saying let's avoid Hitler. Okay. Let's avoid penis.
Starting point is 00:41:34 What if it's like, I don't like Hitler? I guess we can avoid that too. Oh, I guess we avoid saying things like that. That would be fine. That would be fine. Okay, Hitler tweeted this. See what happens? Do you put up all these rules and regulations?
Starting point is 00:41:46 No, that's good. That's helpful. Thank you. Well, I have no limitations. Yeah, you can pretty much run whatever. Wow, so a penis on yours is fine? His? No, if he posted...
Starting point is 00:42:00 Oh, if we had to give him the meat and then he could post it on behalf of us. He says, get a pick of your meat. Yeah. I can spoil her. Sure. I mean, fuck it. And the caption is open for a fun surprise
Starting point is 00:42:11 if you're under the age of 18. That you're okay with that. Because you said anything's fine. I don't think Dax Slam would do that to us. But yeah, yeah. So I have to trust that he wouldn't do that. Well, that's why I'm going to give away all my Pokemon cards to one lucky person today.
Starting point is 00:42:25 Uh-huh. And then it's a penis? No, no. I just won't make you do like a big promise or something. Oh, I see, I see. A fake giveaway. Yeah. Because that would be fun too.
Starting point is 00:42:37 Oh, I'm excited. Well, actually, I don't have any good ideas. Honestly? Yeah. Okay. Why don't you just say the first thing that comes to your mind? Yeah, usually the first idea you have is the best idea. If you want to work on top of it too.
Starting point is 00:42:51 An idea of yours is not very good, but I think it would be one of my best. I see you click clacking away. Dude, what are these pens? They're like, they were like caught in a waffle iron for a little bit. Oh yeah, they are. They have, yeah, they have a tennis racket pattern, a crosshatched pattern. Hey, fashion guy. It's why three all it's fashion.
Starting point is 00:43:09 Fashion guys, that's cool. He looks cool in it, but that's because he's hot. Sorry, uh. Would I look cool in those? No, you look crazy. No, you look cool. You look crazy. You see, you say, I'm wearing trash.
Starting point is 00:43:19 I'm wearing the trash now. Yeah, but is that not subversive in cool fashion? Yes, it is. If you wore these. So, wait, he has a buff for everything. thing because he's hot? Yes, everyone in the planet does, yeah. So what about fashion for ugly people?
Starting point is 00:43:33 That's a business model. Well, no. Fashion for ugly people, the horrible slogan. But then, yeah, I guess no one would want to buy it because they're admitting something to themselves. I think Diamond Supply Co has that covered. That in Huff. I know.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I didn't matter what brand you said, it's a knock on that. Yeah, yeah. Basically anything at a Zoomis. Yeah, you've been beefing with Zumi's. I got beef with Zumi's. Sorry, man. Are you, so you're sending, this is an essay or a tweet? Uh, it's like a tweet, but y'all can, uh, like, approve it or not first.
Starting point is 00:44:06 Okay, okay. And, because I don't know if this is like a bad thing or like a fine thing. Um, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm feeling anxiety. You would feel anxiety. It's just so long. It's almost like excitement. It's like, you know, before you. You're afraid that it'll, it'll mess with your beep deal.
Starting point is 00:44:21 No. Beep. The preferred brand for beep. No, I, what about like? So I said, I'm going to quit the Yard podcast. Sorry to tell you abruptly, but something happened in the past two days. So I will share more soon. Yeah, I'm cool with that.
Starting point is 00:44:39 In fact, in fact, yeah, I love it. Okay. I would change nothing about it. Do you want me to do something different? No, it's so fucking funny. Oh my God. Okay. What if Yoxick tweets it out?
Starting point is 00:44:52 Dude, wow. And then we lose how many patrons did we just lose? We lost like $10.000. Oh, no, this is good Because then we, we need out the chat I could say, please don't leave the Patreon Because we have some better stuff And then yours is like
Starting point is 00:45:10 You want to wait a few minutes or Yeah Dude, and then you tweet out Damn, this today sucks I just tweet out Nothing goes right for me But will this make Will this make people sad or will they know it's a joke
Starting point is 00:45:27 I think some people might pick up that it's a joke we've talked about having you on but we've also never really done anything like this it would depend it I mean if you were to add fuel reinforcing this through their tweets
Starting point is 00:45:40 people I think would start to believe maybe you could say like nothing goes my way or something whatever or like something like that the thing is and you could say like I did something bad like that's the tweet
Starting point is 00:45:54 he has that aura right you said Hey, you said it. He can say anything. He says, I fucked up. Seconds ago, you're okay with... Fine. Yes. With the penis. All right, you want me too? I fucked up.
Starting point is 00:46:05 Uh, okay. What would you like? Uh, well, whatever, uh, if you want them to believe it, it would be something like that. There you go. Yeah. And then I'll, I'll edit it for syntax to make sure it's like my voice. Okay. And you said that you would say it like that.
Starting point is 00:46:20 Well, is this bad, though? Will people feel upset? Um, people will feel... Some people may celebrate, like, a big. haters? Well maybe then you can do like a giveaway so to make it. Yeah. We make parking free and this is how we get our million because we don't lose our patrons because they have it's a million in opportunity cost. Yep. Okay. I love how it keeps kind of funneling into some sort of giveaway. Yeah, yeah. His mind is a bountiful place. Yeah, it's an Escher painting.
Starting point is 00:46:54 why you be even with Zumi's you know the story I've told it because I You have? Yeah because on my I was 17 And then yours could just be like Why does things happen like this
Starting point is 00:47:07 Wow You can just rip it How about you want to type it He said I fucked up I betrayed everyone And I'm sorry But I will share more details soon
Starting point is 00:47:17 Is that what you would say Yeah I mean You're gonna have the most anxious 45 minutes ever. Oh my God, bro. It's slightly more maybe melodramatic because it's, I betray everyone. I betray everyone.
Starting point is 00:47:33 It's so funny. It's like, what would he say instead? Like maybe more, I wouldn't change it personally. No, no, it's perfect. It's actually so, it's like, it's so unlike what he would actually say that I think people are gonna believe it because it seems like he's out of character
Starting point is 00:47:49 because he's panicking. Did you tweet yours? So then I can text Mr. B. beast, my friend slime betrayed me today. Yes, you can. Yes, we give him the phone and let him say that, yes. But what's, and what's your middle name as well? I got two big ones for you today.
Starting point is 00:48:09 All right, here you go. But should I, should I text that or some... Whatever you want. It's all you. If you want to self-promo, if you want to ask his middle name. You didn't reply to his team water text. Yeah, I didn't reply to his last three texts. You didn't reply to Team Water?
Starting point is 00:48:23 Well, he called me after, that's why. He texted me and then he, are you team watering this year? Oh, I sent mine. I just said, hey, bro, and then after he replies to that, say, I'll say, can I ask you something? Okay, so you're playing. It's a hook. Yeah, then whenever he replies. It's a hook.
Starting point is 00:48:39 Can I ask you something? I've been betrayed today. So now do you want to say yours? Yeah, what do you want? So here, I'll just give you. Okay. I don't know if this was what you expected. He did reply.
Starting point is 00:48:50 Mr. Beasted? Yes, he said no. Oh, um, okay, I'll say it's actually important. Okay, I'll, I'll type this for you. Okay. It's actually important. And say, um, I'm nervous. I'm nervous.
Starting point is 00:49:09 He's fucking all of our lines up. I'll ask him what he's wearing. He said, don't ask him that because I want him to... He said, I'm on a call, but text me. Uh, okay. Okay. Well, actually, you don't have to say okay. I'm trying to think of what.
Starting point is 00:49:23 Oh, sure, sure. Yeah. Say, you've really set up here where he, he's like maybe a little, like, what the fuck? He's on edge. So do you want to call him instead? No, no, no. He said he's on a call. So I have to text him.
Starting point is 00:49:36 You could say it's very important. Can I call you? And then I could stand over there and with mouth what you should say to him. So you want. Well, maybe not actually. You want. You want. So despite him saying, I cannot call.
Starting point is 00:49:50 You want a lot of way to push through. That would be too hard to. pull off, I think. I think you're, I think it's a bit, it would probably be a wait situation. We're asking a lot of Jimmy, beep, beast. Because we don't know the middle name. I'll just, I'll start typing.
Starting point is 00:50:04 Would you say that? This is this is Nick's tweet. Yeah. Or this is fuck. This is fucked is very ominous. That would scare people. This is fucked is very good. Yeah, it's good. Or this is bad. Dude, this is like, no, this is fucked is better. We got Dax Flame on. He's burning
Starting point is 00:50:20 down the pocket. You said it. It's sent. Sitting the moniker. I'm not going to look. No, I have to. Maybe you could say, I'm trying to figure out how to put this.
Starting point is 00:50:32 Okay, so, like, these are very lead on. Yeah, and I'm trying to figure out what to say. Oh, so you're just trying to figure out what to say. Right. Because you need time over text.
Starting point is 00:50:41 Do you want me to say, give me a second? Yeah. Give me a second. He's probably on some fucking call. What the fuck is going on? Letting, letting Dax Flame pilot the mech suit.
Starting point is 00:50:52 of the yard and he's just going around smashing buildings do you know Luca Donchich? Yeah I do I do cool um you want to text him I don't have his number um no but that's cool I saw that clip of him saying
Starting point is 00:51:08 hey Ludwig oh yeah the Luca clip yeah there was an assault rifle are you are your basketball fan yes what's your team the Lakers oh okay me too yeah I just I notice that when you know something
Starting point is 00:51:20 you will still ask as if you don't you be like do you know Luca what would you have done if he said no I don't well actually okay I actually I didn't know if he knew him or if that was just a one time promotional thing I see yeah but I do also ask people
Starting point is 00:51:35 things I already know in case I'm wrong but he also lied to you because he doesn't he doesn't know him he knows of him he's seen him around yeah that's how I was interpreting the question I didn't think the question was like are you boys of the Luca I was like do you know Luca Donchich like oh do you know
Starting point is 00:51:51 David Gettah. I know of him. Roblocked YouTuber. Yeah. That's the business. But I've never I've never talked to him. We got the video and then our teams are in contact. Cool. Okay. Cool. So I was able to ask the favor of him making the video. It's also so funny that in all of these tweets that have just gone out, Aiden did not send one. That's true. It's because he's obviously not here. Yeah. But maybe you should maybe you should send one. I don't have something like I just joined a podcast. He's off X. Oh, you're off. Well, I, my login is memorized on Safari on my laptop. I don't know the, and it's the only way.
Starting point is 00:52:28 I might actually have this password on my phone. It wasn't on the screen time. This, this, this clears. How did I betray you? I don't know, but you always do this. Yeah. You always betray. I always betray.
Starting point is 00:52:38 Yeah. Did, uh, did the ice cream man documentary? Did that provide like a meaningful shift in like your, your life? Yeah, that helped me a lot. Really? Yeah. Basically, I was just working at an ice cream shop and had no momentum online or anything. And then, well, do you all need to check your Twitters or anything?
Starting point is 00:53:02 Like, do you need to delete those or anything? No. Okay, because then I got rock. Yeah, let them ride. Yeah. So then I had a lot of, like, just momentum from that. And then I started to make a game show from that. And then, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:16 Yeah. You see, you see how scared Ludwig is right now? His phone is in his lap, bro. Oh, my God. I have the Mr. Beast message. Oh, right, right. He has not replied to the, give me a second. Maybe say, and he just silenced his notifications.
Starting point is 00:53:30 Oh, my God, that's, dude, that sucks. Maybe say hello question mark. Come on, gentlemen. Maybe say hello question mark. You heard the man. I sent it, right? I sent it. This is a great.
Starting point is 00:53:50 the great, it is like, no, it's like the bait messages that, like, people send to their significant others on TikTok as like, uh, can I ask you something? It's actually important. I'm nervous. I'm trying to figure out of this. Give me a second.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Hello? But that's what I've sent. Now I have to think of what it is. Yeah, this, you've really set up for like a home fucking one. I know what it is. So, um, well, you don't have to send it yet,
Starting point is 00:54:14 but, well, basically I filmed this video with him. And, well, maybe you have to bleep. this. Well, so I had this video, but they said maybe I can't post it. So then you can ask for permission for me to be able to post it. But I filmed like this video where it's, this is actually going to be very disappointing for everyone, especially since I'm saying to bleep it. So never
Starting point is 00:54:35 mind. I'll think it's something better. Wait, let's not bleep it. Do we have to believe? Is it well, okay, so the video, okay, you could just share it and then hopefully when it comes out someday if it does. But it's a video where I had him say, hello, everyone. I just bought Dax Flames account for million dollars and so now i'm going to take over his account but they haven't given me permission to post it so maybe i could use your power to oh but no actually don't say that you don't think of something better yeah we can do that no i don't want to use it for personal gain i want to destroy the world you want to just use no i want it to be like a fun thing that everyone enjoys okay well i you know what then i'll work on that on the side oh okay okay
Starting point is 00:55:14 i can work on that on the side because i i want to see i want to see dach slams succeed i I guess on that note, what is success to you? Because you've been talking a bit about money and like the financial aspect of doing content creation, but I think there's also probably like an artistic pursuit. What do you want? Just to keep making videos and to avoid going back to an ice cream shop type situation. You want to be able to make videos for the rest of your life?
Starting point is 00:55:40 I think so. Yeah. I resonate with that. The most miserable I've ever been was when I worked at a coffee shop. Oh, yeah. And when I finally got out of that job, my vow to myself is like, no matter what I do, I will never go back to a job like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:55:57 That's been my goal always, just to avoid that. Yeah. Well, where's the line, right? Like, what if you had to make videos that sucked? Is that as bad as an ice cream shop? Do you mean, like, make videos you don't want to make? Yeah. Yeah, like if the videos were only, is only canvios.
Starting point is 00:56:14 If I was pandering or something. Yeah, yeah. Then I wouldn't like that. So it's not just making videos. It's videos you like. Yeah, that you like. True, true, yeah. If you make a video, a movie, whatever,
Starting point is 00:56:25 and you make $10 million from it, are you going to keep making videos, or do you retire and go to the Bahamas? I would keep making videos, but then, yeah, I would just never have to think about money again. Yeah. Yeah, that would be tight.
Starting point is 00:56:40 If you could snap your fingers and you could pick, like, exactly, I'm assuming the answer is making videos, but like, assuming the money didn't matter and it would all be the same amount anyways like would you prefer to make videos on youtube would you rather be in movies would you rather i like making them on tic talk and instagram right now oh more than youtube right now yes yeah more than you want to make a movie like do you have a well i have directed one movie um and that was fun but i don't really have a desire
Starting point is 00:57:08 to do that again again anytime soon it was no budget it was just it was called making youtube it's about the creation of youtube and i played the bio it was a biopic about chat hurley the guy who made YouTube Was it a feature? Yes Oh my god You directed a whole feature Yeah
Starting point is 00:57:23 How long did it take How long was the shoot? Well we filmed it in one week And it was very intense Jesus Christ And there was zero budget But And you directed and acted in it
Starting point is 00:57:32 Yeah And wrote it Oh my shit How big was the crew Maybe 5 or six people That's intense Wow
Starting point is 00:57:43 And I had to Right at my self. Yeah. Did you like writing? Yeah. Okay. What part of all that process did you like the most? Acting, directing, writing. Directing is fun. Okay, okay. And acting. Well, writing is the bottom one. Yeah. Do you write your, uh, do you write your, like, TikTok or real ideas out before you're doing them? Are you just doing them? Sometimes I'm just walking around. I'm like, oh, that's a funny thing. I'll make a joke about that. But then other times I'm like, oh, today I want to go to the Griffith Observatory
Starting point is 00:58:19 and pretend to propose to this girl to make strangers happy type thing the parking meter one just was on the spot that wasn't pre-planned I have one I'm going to film today and then that one is planned and another one I just bought some props for I'm going to do like a fake valet
Starting point is 00:58:36 and then I'm going to wash the person's car when they drop it off to me my favorite one is there's this group of girls like this girl pop group Oh yeah, they're awesome. It's 5y. Have you seen this?
Starting point is 00:58:50 No. He's doing this collab video with this group called 5i, and he orders pizza, and then he's going to surprise the pizza delivery guy with a show of this pop group. And then the driver comes and doesn't want to be on camera. So the video ends, and he's like, the driver didn't want to be on camera. So see what happens? Well, did you see the sequel? I did see the sequel. But I was, I was curious, like, most people, I think, when that happens, it's, it's a, it's not what was meant to happen.
Starting point is 00:59:25 Yeah, but I only had a limited amount of time with them, so I couldn't shoot again. I see. So you couldn't be like, let's wait for another pizza delivery? No, but so that was when I was in Tokyo, and then that just happened to work out. Then they came to L.A. to do a show. So that's when I did the sequel, and we did get successfully, uh, do, they did a performance. How do you smooth that over with them? real time because that's what I was thinking of was like what's the room after where you're like
Starting point is 00:59:49 okay this is the plan the pizza guy comes we do the performance and the piece guy comes it doesn't want to the performance you're like all right they were disappointed but I was like but they were also they're just really positive and friendly and so then I was just like don't worry like this will still be a positive video and stuff I think and then yeah no one minded I feel also telling them it's a gamble I think both videos are probably bigger for it having gone this way yes true true Which is the beauty of it. It's not planned on your end, clearly, but... Yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:19 And what do y'all like best out of TikTok podcasting, et cetera? And what is y'all's dream goal? Oh. Like, oh, like that we do. I like doing the podcast the most. Cool. But that's not your dream goal. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:00:34 My dreams have shifted a lot. I mean, if you asked me, I know you're just dying to know what's going on in that little fun of his. I was seeing if Jimmy was replying. No, but he looked at it like you had a treat. I'm doing the Aden role Yeah you see the phone And he's just like what's that thing too I want to look at it
Starting point is 01:00:52 I don't know my my goals have like changed a lot You asked me like four or five years ago I'd be like I want to make a feature Do I want that now I think I would be open to that now But I don't think I'm aiming towards it anymore Would you what would it be about Well me and Slam are writing
Starting point is 01:01:08 Not a feature but we're writing a show About U-Sports Because that's what we know and then we think it's a very funny world. But that's, and that's like my, I would say outside of the podcast, my biggest, like, creative focus is doing that. I'd love to make that real.
Starting point is 01:01:23 But I think I've learned that, like, I grew up on the internet. And for a long time, I got really wrapped up in this idea that, like, traditional media is more, like, legitimate. Like, if I were to make it to be a movie, or make a movie,
Starting point is 01:01:34 that would be more of an accomplishment than, like, something on the internet. But I think that's not true anymore. And I'm more interested in making stuff on the internet, I think. So, like, We did shoot a film, you know, it'd be cool to, like, go to festivals or have it in the theaters, but I'd also want it on the internet, kind of first and foremost. I'm still that guy.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Not that I think traditional media is more important or relevant. I just like it more, I think, and I resonate with it more. So the show we're working on. We actually had a meet. We were supposed to have a meeting for one of the episodes today in the writers, me and two other guys, and Caleb Pitts is one of the writers, and he didn't show up for the meeting. Oh, yes. He just, no call, no-showed.
Starting point is 01:02:15 Is that? He's a bald comedian in New York. Cool. He has a podcast. Campion, right? Yeah, yeah. They're very close. Oh, cool.
Starting point is 01:02:24 Yeah, I know Pierce. Yeah, I've known him. Well, I just met him randomly, like, maybe eight years ago or something. I was with him a week ago, and he brought you up. I was like, oh, my God, I'm about to meet him. Cool. Yeah, Pierce is cool. Caleb's on the show, or he's writing on the show, and we have a meeting where we
Starting point is 01:02:37 call and we talk about the episode, and he just didn't show up at all. So we do the meeting with the three of us, and then we're like, Caleb, are you okay? and he just doesn't message us, message him personally, nothing, a day later. He had diarrhea. He had explosive diarrhea. Not even kidding.
Starting point is 01:02:53 And he passed out at 6 p.m. Yes. And we thought he died. We were like really scared. I said, I'm meeting with no CP. I don't show up. I don't show up to that meeting. That's right.
Starting point is 01:03:04 Meeting with no CP? Yeah, because then what are we going to, what will we even talk about? We're talking about my favorite football team, Crystal Palace? No. So yeah, it's kind of the same. I'm actually, I'm living the dream
Starting point is 01:03:15 because we're working on something I really like. Cool. Yeah, that's kind of my answer to is I really love doing the show, this show. I don't like it with Aiden's here. So this is the best time. This is such, it's, if you want to just come back every week. There's no idea how much more I like you.
Starting point is 01:03:30 We will tell Aiden that we're recording and we'll do a whole hour and a half with him and then we just won't post it. We'll do a real one with you. I actually make a request. Have you ever played Dungeons and Dragons? No. Well, well, Dax Flame
Starting point is 01:03:44 Dax Flame We are actually premiered Dungeons and Dragons players Okay Recently launched a show Yeah And you know We were talking about having a guest episode For Dungeons and Dragons
Starting point is 01:03:59 The idea, have you watched it before? Dungeons and Dragons Yeah No, but I know kind of it's like you do role playing And come up with your character And there's a dungeon master Yep. But I don't really know how you win or lose.
Starting point is 01:04:14 Oh, the, it's a, it's variable, you know. And I think you find maybe cornerly that it's not about winning or losing. It's about, you win if you have fun. The journey. It's ironically about the friends you make along the way. Cool. So would you ever be interested in maybe doing that? Do you want to be our first guest?
Starting point is 01:04:31 Yeah, I would do that. That would be fun. Okay. Yes. No, I think you'd be, I think you'd be great at D&D. Maybe. Maybe, well, actually, this. would be too much of a disappointment,
Starting point is 01:04:41 but I could say maybe the big Jimmy text comes then, but that would probably be too long to wait to complete that. I don't think he would like, I don't think he'd remember. I don't think he has a lot going on. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think,
Starting point is 01:04:56 I think he might have deleted my number already. What if you say, like, I have a million dollar opportunity. That's not a lot for him. Oh, yeah, true. Yeah, yeah. You have to say I have, you have to say maybe like,
Starting point is 01:05:06 I woke up in a big circle and I can't leave. What do I do? He's like, I've seen this one before. Dude, I can help you. What if you say, hmm, I did something bad? It feels like every text you're sending is setting up for an eventual text that you don't have.
Starting point is 01:05:29 Yeah, you can't think of that's something bad. Maybe you say hello one more time. You want me to do a second hollow question mark Or maybe just say, well, how did, what would you say in your voice? Like, hey, man, what's up? In your voice? So, I'll read you back the script. Okay.
Starting point is 01:05:49 Hey, bro, can I ask you something? No. It's actually important. I'm nervous. On a call, but text me. I'm trying to figure out of put this. Give me a second. Hello?
Starting point is 01:05:59 And now you want to say, hey, bro? Dude, this is fucking awesome. Let's see. Hey, bro, are you free now? You really want to call? No, he doesn't have to call. Just say, because I don't want to text this. Are you free now?
Starting point is 01:06:18 You can say, because I just want to send a text, but I don't want it to be hanging too long after I send it. So just let me know if you're free to answer my text. Can you explain the minutia of that? Can you explain how it? He doesn't want the text to hang too long. Like, I don't want the text to be something that can be permanently sort of captured. No, I don't want to doubt even sending it in the first place.
Starting point is 01:06:37 I need you to reply quickly for that to not. be the case. Are you free now? I have the text ready to go. Oh my god. It's so fucking unbelievable. I'd be so mad. I'd be so mad. I'm sure he's mad. No, because he's he has like a lot of things going on. So he's probably just like doing a feastable's call. Yeah. What's funny what's funny to X is I because I had this open because I thought he might reply because he had been replying. He switched from replying quickly to it says Jimmy has notification silenced yes he went to D&D in the in the duration that's what you could say you could say could you turn off the could you turn off D&D
Starting point is 01:07:24 wait you could type in all caps hello you can try to yell past it well I don't want him to seem like he's like I want him to seem like it's going to be like a good thing there's a button that says notify anyway oh my god I just clicked it I didn't realize it it does it yeah what Did you send it? It was the text from previous and it says, are you free now? I have the text ready to go. And what happens is it blasts through this Do Not Disturb and on the screen on the iPhone, it goes, and it takes up the screen. Dude, you're never. This is Christmas to me. You're never being invited to do anything again. Yeah, no, this is probably it for me. Would you go to the Beast Games premiere? Would I go to the Beast Games? I watch all of Beast games season one. It depends where the premiere. is maybe you could say I like maybe the important thing could be like that you have a beast games idea he's giddy he's excited literally giddy maybe it could be because it's supposed to be vulnerable so that wouldn't be good I almost think there's two routes here one is we we ask for
Starting point is 01:08:32 the tax claim footage well I have the footage sorry you want permission yeah I could ask someone, but they'll probably just say we'll ask someone and then they won't hear back. Well, that's why I'm saying. He has the power to ask the ban. I can do this right now and I think that's a successful end to this. No, we don't I think it should be something that I don't want it to feel selfish. I see.
Starting point is 01:08:53 It's so selfless because we're doing it for you. Well, I don't want it to feel like if you're a viewer and like, oh wow, he just is just trying to get he's just trying to promote himself to Mr. Beast. I can promise you it's very low on the list of what any viewers currently think. Oh my God, he's calling me.
Starting point is 01:09:08 well you don't maybe say I can I can't talk right now what should he say well maybe say okay say that you had a cool idea for peace games but you're too shy to tell what it is
Starting point is 01:09:20 go ahead Ludwig and action yeah what up dude sorry man you did you finish your call hit me yeah all right cool I just had an idea for beast games okay we just finished filming season 2
Starting point is 01:09:35 FY hit me oh it's done What the fuck do I do now, that's? See, my ideas always go poorly. I should have known. Hello? It's my bad. It was, my ideas are bad anyway.
Starting point is 01:09:48 All right, that was, that was it. When's the premiere? You're breaking up. When's the premiere? I can't, are you live, like, doing a bit? No, I'm not live. I hung up! I hung up!
Starting point is 01:10:10 He was not having your bullshit. He sounded... He sounded not happy. He sounded pissy. Oh, my God. That's okay. Well, you could say, hey, sorry, I just got nervous. Yeah, you could...
Starting point is 01:10:23 This is like Christmas to me. I have no idea. Just say, yeah, sorry, I got... I got nervous, so... I... I often have ideas. but then they don't go how I wanted, so I got nervous. Or say maybe, well, actually, maybe I don't want to ruin your friendship.
Starting point is 01:10:49 So now I'll let you take the, unless you want me to do more. He said, I'm calling the police. Are you okay? Well, maybe say, yeah, I got nervous. Let's talk. Let's catch up soon. Yeah, I got nervous. Let's catch up soon. That's a good conclusion. And then people will be like... He's going to call the cops.
Starting point is 01:11:15 You sounded like... You sounded like someone was holding you hostage and they said you have to steal Mr. Beast's money. Yes. Oh, my God. That's what he thinks. Dude, that'd be awesome. And then you could put at the beginning of the episode like,
Starting point is 01:11:29 oh my God, I can't believe I just did that. He said they're on the way. They're on the way. Yeah, like the police. Okay. Well, it's fine. Yingling can greet the police. Yeah. Well, they don't know how to get in.
Starting point is 01:11:42 So. Yeah. What do I say to that? Ha, ha, ha. My God. I mean, in the span of less than 90 minutes, you've... You've disrupted our lives. You've disrupted our lives a measure.
Starting point is 01:12:00 You've burned this place down. It's really fun to be able to send tweets from other people's accounts or text people, especially, like, texting Mr. Beast from someone else's phone is really fun. Yeah, you'll get that opportunity very often They don't come up I guess in the normal day to day I have a question what Who do you think is really funny Um
Starting point is 01:12:17 Those friends I mentioned earlier Yeah And then I've been trying to watch more stand-up comedy recently Who you're liking Um Mitch Headberg and Shane Gillis And um Sebastian Manascalco
Starting point is 01:12:31 And I'll just put on a most popular stand-up On Spotify playlist Oh really? Okay Whenever I'm driving Okay, I have a wreck for you This one I think molded me Okay It's a very
Starting point is 01:12:42 It's kind of niche But it's Comedy Central presents Pablo Francisco A 30 minute special from like 2001 Okay I think it still holds up today And I think it built my sense of humor
Starting point is 01:12:58 And I would You're watching a lot of stand-up baby Pablo Francisco Okay I'll definitely watch him Wow I don't have a stand-up wreck Watch one piece Okay. Is that a show where you need to like watch some episodes before it starts to get really good?
Starting point is 01:13:14 Or is it one where you can just jump right in and it's fun to watch? I think it's fun from the beginning. Some people think it takes roughly 500 episodes. I do like watching anime, but I haven't watched anything for a while. I like the Miyazaki movies. Oh, the Ghibli ones? Yeah. What's your favorite?
Starting point is 01:13:34 Spirited Away is awesome. That is awesome. Did you cry? I don't think so. When's the last time you cried? I cry a normal amount. I don't remember the last time exactly, but probably within the month,
Starting point is 01:13:45 like at a touching thing on TikTok. Oh, TikTok. Yeah, sometimes you just see some really sweet stuff. Have you cried on TikTok? Yeah, I've absolutely cried on TikTok. You see like AI dogs? No, not AI dogs. I'm more like...
Starting point is 01:13:58 I saw the bunnies on the trampoline and I burst in its ears because it's so beautiful. Baby Spider-Man saved baby Batman from parallel. Um, I, yeah, what, what makes you cry on-tick? For me, it was, I cried at like multiple things. I cried the animal ones. Yeah. Sometimes they do, like, animal rescue.
Starting point is 01:14:15 Oh. It's like the dodo, and it's like, we rescued an animal and they're, like, washing oil out of its, out of its feathers. Uh, I think I cried at a military come home compilation. Really? Yeah. You are just the fucking primary consumer, man. Yeah. They're just like, they're really good.
Starting point is 01:14:34 They are really good. I mean, it is. Thank you. True blue. It's a classic. It's a classic. You know what got me? It was actually on Twitter.
Starting point is 01:14:40 It was just from, I think, from TikTok. But I sent it to Ludwig because it's this guy, this young guy living in Japan. He's like this white guy. And that's just important because it's like usually, Ludu's like usually these guys are cringe. But he like goes up to this old man on a bench and he starts talking to him. And then the old man invites him into his house. And then they go and have, he has dinner with him and his old wife.
Starting point is 01:15:00 And it's very, very sweet. just his wife well she wasn't young and I was like and I sent it to a lot of I was like this damn near made me tear up because it's very sweet
Starting point is 01:15:10 yeah and he's like usually this guy's legit usually these are crudged but this is the beauty of humanity man we're if we asked you to be
Starting point is 01:15:17 in our show would you do it what if we asked you to be in our our TV show would do it yes you would do it
Starting point is 01:15:23 yeah definitely all right you're at your cast would you react in it I don't I don't know they've never asked to me actually
Starting point is 01:15:30 would you we're gonna get him Would you do acting? Like, do you think that you could do acting? You said you're one note. Yeah. Also, you said One Piece was a good show to watch, and it made me think I told them I've been watching,
Starting point is 01:15:43 I've watched the first two seasons of Game of Thrones recently. And then that popped on my head. How are you feeling about Game of Thrones right now? It's really good. It is, isn't it? And then I know to be disappointed for the last season. But anyways, sorry. No.
Starting point is 01:15:54 Do you think you could do good acting, even if it is the one note thing you said? Yeah. No, I crush my note. Cool. I think I play a, uh, just like a big asshole. Okay, pretty well. You could be a Game of Thrones type character.
Starting point is 01:16:09 Like you have like a face like a Prince Charming type thing. Really? Yeah, I think so. If you had like long hair. Yeah. We hate to give them that because we've been giving him that for years, but it's true. I think honestly, unironically, I think that if you ever wanted to do like Broadway stage acting, I think that's your niche.
Starting point is 01:16:30 That's my niche. Sorry, it's not a niche, but like that's your, I think you are a very performative actor. But that's really hard to get into for this guy, I'm telling you, he's mine. I think that one's way harder. I just think it's your acting style. I think you're very, like you have like a stage acting style. That's the biggest insult you could give someone. No, plays are awesome.
Starting point is 01:16:48 Why? That's the biggest insult I could give somebody. You're saying you act for stage. It's a different thing. Yeah, but like it basically means like you act like a cartoon character. Like, you're Ronald McDonald. I think, no, it's like you act in a way that is not lost on people in a room. You're just rephrasing what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:17:10 You're making it meaner. What if we give them the same scene to do and see who does it better? Yeah, we could do that. Oh, I would love. Yeah, give me a scene. Well, what's my scene? So you have to just do a monologue about how people usually don't like your ideas. but um and you thought you had a really good one but then you blew it and then you could just reply
Starting point is 01:17:35 like just as like however you would reply he's the person that i'm trying to tell the idea to and then i'll just watch it and see who does better yeah can you direct actually well it's kind of just out yeah well you can give me adjustments after if i well the this is a contest so i'm not going to help you know no fair enough it's an audition who do you want to go first uh who wants to go I'll go first. Okay. I'm so, where are we? What's giving me the world I'm in?
Starting point is 01:18:03 Is it here? That's your dad, and he... Yeah, that makes sense to the age. And y'all are in, like, at a pool party. Okay. This is my dad, we're at a pool party. A lot of people, wow, okay. You took him aside.
Starting point is 01:18:17 Can you actually just play, like, miscellaneous, like, crowds murmuring? You took him aside into a quiet behind a tree. Okay, and then when I finally take him aside, I want you to lower the volume. on the video as if I'm taking him aside. Okay, do I get to do this monologue or am I being judged on my dad acting? No, because you don't seem to have any care about whether you're a good actor or not. Oh, I do, I wanted to be better than him.
Starting point is 01:18:41 Oh, okay. Yeah, you can do it too. Put it all into being dad. Okay. Yeah, I'll do... Sure, sure, sure. And it'll, you jump in. We go over here, ready?
Starting point is 01:18:51 What if you texted Jimmy now? I want... Miscellaneous crowd murmuring audio sound effects, and then when I pull him aside in the script, I want you to lower the volume as if we're leaving that room. Did you just hear what he said? What?
Starting point is 01:19:02 No. He goes, what if you text Jimmy now? What are you up to? Okay. Right. I was getting, yeah,
Starting point is 01:19:12 I get back in character. Okay. That'd be crazy. Just play the sounds whenever you're ready, man. And yeah, because you got an idea for a cool, like a cool invention or something.
Starting point is 01:19:25 A cool invention? But you don't have to say what the invention was, but just like a, I don't even know if I'll get it out, because I'm... Just a good business idea that didn't work out. All right, just give me action. Oh, action.
Starting point is 01:19:37 Hey, dad. Hey, what's up, kiddo? Are you drinking again? Oh, no, this is just... You told mom you wouldn't drink anymore. Dude, you put it in the pool. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Ms. Johnson. She's cheating on her husband.
Starting point is 01:19:52 Can I talk to you for a second? Yeah, yeah, sure. We just walk over here. Okay, yeah. Um, I just have this idea Um, I want to run Sorry, that was really, smelled really bad I have an idea I wanted to run by you.
Starting point is 01:20:06 Yeah, sure. For, for an invention? An invention? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm sorry, no. No what, you know, actually, never mind. I don't, I don't want to tell you the idea. It's stupid. Well, I mean, you pulled me aside.
Starting point is 01:20:18 I was having fun. We can just go back to the party. Actually, it's a business idea, not an invention. It's actually a business idea. I just remember not. Business idea. Well, I mean, now I'm listening because. Okay, okay, okay
Starting point is 01:20:28 I always told you to make some money Get out there, do some stuff You're 23 I just, okay, okay It's a business idea Well, you know how you have that At one time I found that flashlight In your room
Starting point is 01:20:38 And I thought I needed to see in the dark And it wasn't a flashlight Opened it up and it was something else Oh yeah, yeah, yeah Yeah What did I just want to know What if they made those with AI
Starting point is 01:20:47 But they were also They were made of boy pussy Instead of actually a different Different thing Oh okay Oh Or actually you don't have to tell him what if it was what if I don't have to tell him. Yeah. Okay So before I tell you the idea, can I is this so am my hands stuck like this forever? Is this? This is really what I'm afraid of is I have a business idea
Starting point is 01:21:10 Can I say one more note? Yeah, yeah. Don't do anything funny. Oh, okay And so you can put your hands normal. Yeah, put them on my side probably if that's funny. What's up kiddo? Your hands like really normal and actually I think that's a good enough I think that was actually really good acting. Wow, really. Yeah, actually. Yeah, okay. I felt I was there. And I'll be the judge now, but then commenters can be the final judge. Right. But then so do you want to do one? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Also, yeah. So I think that, um, like, you know, you threw that into the pool and like, you don't, don't do anything like that this time just so I can really focus on if it's, yeah, yeah. And then is it okay if I look, lean like this. Yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah, yeah, of course. Yeah. Honestly, if you want to go over there, you're welcome it if it's easier. This is okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Action. Are you ready? I'm ready, yeah. Okay, action. And one question, did you want the murmuring to? No, I don't even all that.
Starting point is 01:22:02 Okay. I'll just start. Y'all are already over in the choir room, yeah. Okay. Action. Hey, daddy. Hey, kiddo. Also, one note.
Starting point is 01:22:12 You're 17, so you're not going to say daddy. He still would probably. Oh, okay. But I can say, dad. You're right that it's weird, though. Whatever you would say then. Okay. Action.
Starting point is 01:22:22 Hey, dad. Oh, hey, kiddo. um pool party's fun yeah having fun miss johnson's over there yeah that's cool um i kind of wanted to share something okay it's it's an idea i've been working on but it's mostly like in my head right now but i haven't been able to tell anyone okay i mean would you like to tell me i'd love to hear it if i tell you can can it maybe be like a I guess like a conversation like it doesn't have to be like a like it's not a good idea so it doesn't have to be like a judgment I guess okay awesome so I think that was really good
Starting point is 01:23:07 too yeah wow that I think that maybe y'all have different strengths but y'all are actually both really good I think maybe um maybe y'all would have different specialties you seem like you were a little more naturalistic right away but then yours felt really vulnerable and like
Starting point is 01:23:35 emotional so like maybe he's really been there before and he's channeling some real maybe I was thinking about like sharing stuff that I didn't want to share oh you can do that if I okay did you have more that's just what I was in that head space oh okay yeah to be able to
Starting point is 01:23:52 tap in so I think he'll can both do good job Check this out. Your turn? I would love to take a shot. Yes. So now everyone comment who is the best between them, and now we'll see if this will be the best one. But the only thing is who's going to play the dad this time? I could play the dad.
Starting point is 01:24:08 You can play dad, yeah. So you guys leave a comment now and then leave another comment. So you're going to leave your first comment and then leave your second comment after this performance. The comment between us and this is the comment if he's better. Okay. Two separate. And do you want to be a good actor also? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:24:23 Okay, so do you want the murmuring? No, the murmuring, I can, it's in my head. Okay, action. Hey, dad. What up, kiddo? Can I talk you for a second? I got some stuff on my mind. Yeah, yeah, I mean, go ahead.
Starting point is 01:24:46 Everything I do isn't enough. Every idea I have, every thought, every desire doesn't come together. What? And I try to talk about it with people like you and mom and my teachers and nothing
Starting point is 01:25:07 makes sense. And I'm scared. I'm scared that nothing ever will. It's okay, kiddo. I was like that when I was younger. I don't polish out with the year. years. That's really good.
Starting point is 01:25:24 Actually, that was super good. You maybe had the most visual distress. However, dialogue started to go a little too monology, but that's what I originally said. Like, it sounded almost like, like, too much like a movie at that point instead of naturalistic. Okay. And so, but that is because you're improvising it. But I thought you actually maybe had the most. distressed of the three so actually all super good actors wow thank you and that's
Starting point is 01:25:56 from a that's I was in some movies yeah do you want to maybe give it a shot well well we all tried we all tried we could be the dad we do three gay dads so okay so maybe this could be more like shark tank dad tank okay it's an amazing idea and it's three gay fathers yeah so we are three Hey, Dads, and you are coming in to pitch your business idea. Okay. Yeah. You think it might not be a good idea, but you do know what the idea is.
Starting point is 01:26:32 Yeah, okay. So, um, hey guys. Hey, what would I say? What a party! Oh, great. Fresh bait coming back into our show again. Can someone say action? Action.
Starting point is 01:26:46 Is it okay if I talk to you all about something? Yeah. I mean, you're on the show. It's cool with me. I don't mind. Oh, so this is a show? No, no, it's still. I thought it was gay dad tank.
Starting point is 01:26:56 It's not like a, it's, it's, it's. We're not actually on a show called Dad Tank. It's still, I really liked that idea. Well, it's a good idea, but it's the same scene. But that's not like an acting situation. So we're just his dads. Yes. We're three gay dads.
Starting point is 01:27:06 And we're going to try out the step on them too much. From the top. And are you all in a room? Yeah, we're all in a room together. We were hanging out talking about just gay father stuff. Yeah. Yeah. And it smells like dog surgery.
Starting point is 01:27:17 What does that mean? I don't know. None of us know. We couldn't explain it to you. All right. Were you ready for this? All right. Action.
Starting point is 01:27:27 And then is it at a pool party or y'all just hanging out? Pool party. We're in the other room. Pool party, but we're in a quieter room. Just, and then, okay. Yeah. Action on you. Is it okay if I come in here for a second?
Starting point is 01:27:37 Yeah, come on in, kido. All right. I just had something that I wanted to talk to you all about. Okay. Well, what is it? It's more anything. Well, it's... Kind of makes me nervous to talk about
Starting point is 01:27:49 because sometimes I have ideas that don't go how I plan, so. Jimmy, you can tell us anything. Jimbo, we believe in you, we support you through and through. I don't know if I can tell you all this one. Look, we're your three gay dads, and we love you. I think I'm too nervous. What can we do to help you get it out?
Starting point is 01:28:13 Well, I just always feel like I've got these ideas that I want to make, but then I blow it. Well, you're a young guy, you know, handsome. You got all the time in the world to figure out a good idea. Okay. Those three have blown a lot. And this is like a business idea, and I just don't know if I feel comfortable talking about it. Do you need investment from us, or do you just want some feedback?
Starting point is 01:28:42 Yeah, I wanted to pitch it to you guys, but I'm too nervous. Um Scene I mean I was lost in that Yeah I was lost in that It was it went so long
Starting point is 01:28:54 Because I think we were so in it Well it's he has this really strict rubric Of he's not allowed to tell us the idea Yes I kept forgetting that And we kept asking him what it was Yeah we really wanted to hear the idea And that was a genuine
Starting point is 01:29:07 That was me not even acting anymore I was just like well tell us Yeah just get it out get it out But you can't It's going to be wrapped up in a short film maybe called The Hesident Child or... No, it's just called hesitance.
Starting point is 01:29:19 Hesitance. Reluctance. Yeah. Reluctant business. Man, we are a couple of old, salty Hollywood dogs, aren't we? And the thumbs up comes and says this is the end of the episode.
Starting point is 01:29:29 I got one final question for you and this is more of a moral dilemma. Okay. And I just, if you can weigh in. It's a hypothetical. You're on a plane. Dude. I don't know this.
Starting point is 01:29:43 And the person next. you takes their shoes off we can start there it doesn't smell at all does that make you feel some type of way um no okay normal thing to do are the socks off socks are on they just have their shoes off
Starting point is 01:30:00 that person then takes their shoes they say oh sorry can I get out they go take the overhead bin put their shoes in it close overhead bin go back to sit down. Yeah, that's, I've never seen someone do that.
Starting point is 01:30:17 Would that make you, like, would you, would you think of that as a curious thing? Yeah, that's pretty funny, actually. Yeah, that's pretty funny. Would you think it was, like, weird or off-putting, but, or just more like, in, quirky and fun? Did you do it? Well, it's not done. Okay.
Starting point is 01:30:32 Because now, an hour into the flight, they say, oh, sorry, can I get out to go to the bathroom? They squeeze by you. They're walking to the bathroom. You see as they're walking, because they walk in. They didn't get their shoes? They did not get their shoes. Oh, that's weird.
Starting point is 01:30:43 See as they're walking, they're on their tiptoes, they have holes in their socks. And they go to the bathroom just with their socks and they come out. Is that, now it's even maybe weirder? Yeah. Okay. He did all. Okay. He did all of this?
Starting point is 01:30:57 Did your feet... Yeah, I would just be nervous walking into the bathroom with socks. I look very closely and there is nothing on the ground. It's on the tiptoe, so you can really get around the spots in the bathroom. Why did you put... Oh, so that they weren't clogging your foot space? Yes. Oh, yes!
Starting point is 01:31:12 Yes! Yes, so they weren't clogging my footspace under the seat So I can put my feet under the seat Talked about that a lot I talked about it this weekend and I got crucified Oh, but never on the podcast? No, I told them that commenters might roast you They might if they got to the end of this episode
Starting point is 01:31:27 It might be an opportunity for another comment If you're still here, you could leave a third Leave as many comments as you like But let it be known I don't think it's that weird Well maybe the one thing that you didn't do That feel free to do whatever it's your podcast But if you want a thing at the beginning
Starting point is 01:31:43 you could just be like, I can't believe I sent that text to Mr. Beast. Yeah. And then you could have that. Yeah. Could you just do a take of that to be having to put it to the beginning? Yeah, I got, I got, I got, yeah. Yeah. Acting. Okay.
