I don't think a man with anime skateboards on the wall is progressing at a fast rate.
If you have a kid you are.
Whoa, whoa.
Yeah.
Oh, my bad.
What's wrong with that?
I don't think you have a single skateboard.
I do have a skateboard.
Where is it?
Three.
What's on that?
Three skateboards.
I got three skateboards.
Okay, let's name them.
Three boards.
I got a South Park one.
Okay.
I have...
Name two characters from South Park.
Cartman and Towley.
Towley?
Towley?
He says Towley?
Towley's the one whose name is what he is.
He knows Ball.
The one that a child could remember.
Ball knower.
He's a ball knower.
Wow.
Okay.
And then I have one of my sister painted me with my
childhood favorite stuffed animal Ziggie on it okay and then I got a Ryan
Shackler board you're gonna cry in Shackler board no no it's fucking Ryan and
people like you got his life is like him because he's a Red Bull athlete I like
him because he knows how to fucking skate and he was hot when he was 16 when I
was 13 sure wait wait wait wait no I get it when you were 13 yeah yes when
you were 13 he was I thought he was hot when he was 16 were you hot huh no
was chopped. You were chopped. Chop 13, hot
16. I wish I could be hot like Ryan.
Ryan, I think we've done this before, but he has to have
a chopped hairline now, right? Yes, we've done this.
Yes, he does. Thank you.
I thought he shaves that shit, but it still
looks good. It was
widows peaking, for sure.
It's not like him.
Not like him.
Sometimes you forget. Oh, Ryan.
What's wrong?
Nothing, man. What's wrong, sweetie? It's so shaved.
It's just so... You're beautiful hard-launched
glasses, friends. It's so shaved, man.
attention to them. Why not? Why would I not bring attention to it? It looks like they came from
the land that never was in Kingdom Hearts 2. No, bro, it's the Zenozziol glasses.
My, my, my, my, my prescription, Zin, I don't know how you say it in Zinon.
My prescript zins. Yeah. And it's the kind of, prescribes zins. My prescription major.
Me and Lubbock had an idea on our trip where we became best friends and the new, uh,
the new dynamic duo on the show. Okay. Wow. You just want to hear I, sorry boys. Yeah. You guys. You guys
sure how it is no. Okay. Do you want to tell them? Okay. Huh? Do you want to tell me the idea? Uh, no, I don't. Okay. I'll do it.
Dynamic sounds really good by the way. Wow. It's off to a great start. We did come up with it together. So.
No, it feels like it. Aidan is trapped into your seat. I'm sitting here trying to remember what it is. That's what I'm doing. We're dynamic. I want you guys to know, but I'm trying to remember. The idea we had in the airport. We flew on 9-11. Wow. We did fly on 9-11. Okay. We flew on 9-11. So,
Ludwig kept asking the woman
next to us if she needs protection
and that he's here for her.
No, you didn't.
I went, do you know what day it is?
That's crazy.
I can take care of you.
So you're Mark Wahlberging
is just somewhere in a woman.
I lean over, I go, hey,
if anything happens.
Just know.
Ludwig did do something funny on the plane
because I'm, you know,
I'm his passenger princess
because he had a secret shoot in New York
and I just went along for the ride
because I had to go out there too.
Well, Ludwig pays for the monkey.
The monkey pays for the monkey.
The monkey is Ludwig.
Mr. Pays for it.
The monkey was paid for it.
That was a good monkey.
You shelled out for the monkey.
Yeah.
Let the monkey know that the monkey will be taken care of.
With those glasses.
You said, I want you.
I said if anything were going to happen on that plane.
To that monkey, I would step between it.
Ludwig bought those glasses for the monkey.
Less than 24 hours from the flight,
I'm trying to get Ludwig to send me my confirmation code,
and he hasn't sent it yet.
And I want to put TSA pre-on.
my ticket. And he finally, he finally texted me and he goes, I did something crazy with
our flight. Our flight on 9-11. He's like, I did something crazy. I wanted to remember at the
9-11. And so I'm thinking like, what could he possibly mean? Maybe he means like, I booked us
first class. Yeah. But that's not crazy for love week. No. He wouldn't, he wouldn't pre-jack
something like that. He would, we would just show up and he'd be like, yeah, first class.
What are you fucking mean, man? Or he'd probably a prank on me where I'm in coach and he's in
first class, which I don't think he'd actually do. So we, we, I finally get my comment.
confirmation code, and I notice, I don't have one ticket, I have three.
Ludwig booked me a row on the plane.
What? And he booked himself a row on the plane.
Was the row across from each other?
They were, they were front and back, and it's six total seats.
It wasn't two, two.
Did you lay them all down and put a blanket down?
Well, we get to the airport, pretty late, because I left my phone in the Uber, and we had to
wait for it to come back.
Dull.
And, yeah, that was my big L.
and so apparently when you book multiple seats
I didn't know this and Ludwig did know this in a weird way
This is fat guy tech
You have to this is fat guy tech
If you're out there and you're in your large
Sorry for that we're sold out so fast in the merch
And also you probably know this
You have to put X's
You put XS
It says for extra seat in your middle name
In your middle name
Wow
If you don't do that
They assume it's like what a mistake
Yeah like you've bought the two of the ticket
for the same plane. It's going to give your seats away.
Yeah. So Ludwig
does not put excess with his own name,
but he does with mine.
So I don't, so he knows the tech.
No, hold up. Let me defend myself.
It's because the fucking terrorists
at the airline company, okay,
who probably did 9-11.
If you think about it, they operate the planes.
Complicit, because why did the plane even take off?
And they say planes fly themselves. Why do they fly
another tower then?
Yeah.
That's a good question.
that we didn't ask at the time,
but we should ask it now.
Why do they do that?
So anyway, I...
Checking Delta's autopilot.
It's just so low through New York.
I mean, it's worked out in the past, so...
We don't know how to do it, so...
It tries to go vertical between them.
Yeah, I...
The business class, there's one left,
and I thought about it.
I thought about it.
You thought about leaving your pillow princess behind in the dirt realm?
I thought about it.
I wouldn't be upset.
Wait, what airline is this?
This is Delta.
Delta.
Oh.
So it's probably better to have the row because you can actually lay down, right?
Well, that's what I was thinking.
So I get the row for Nick, and it was way cheaper than a business class flight.
Yeah.
It was like the business class flight's $3,000 a ticket, insane.
And the three seats was $1,200.
So I was like, let me just get it.
Let me get a fucking row.
Interesting.
Let me ball out because we had a red eye.
and we have to fucking hit the ground running
the next day
you and sleep
but then when I go to book mine
the airlines figured my fucking jig
and they increased the ticket
from 400 to 1200
oh yeah for one of the seats
so then I decided
in coach so I decided I'd be tricky
I'd be shifty I'd get three different devices
and I'd book the 400 because you buy
one it's only 400 so I'd buy
three ones at the same time
and I went boop
and then it fucking caught me
because it said the loading wheel
and then one went through
and then the other two were like
sorry the price has changed
at checkout it said the price has changed
that's crazy actually
and so I was like son of a bitch
were they allowed to do that
so you had to sit next to some poor woman
who got the brunt of your fury
what actually ended up happening
is I sat in the same row as Nick
and we used the middle seat
as like our trash seat
and the lady in the row in front
lied down because she had that whole bitch to herself.
And so a Ludwig basically paid for what?
You paid, do you get a refund on the first two?
I get a refund on one.
You paid for four seats and neither of you got the benefit of the row.
I paid for five.
I paid for four seats because I got a refund on one.
So I paid for four seats and I got the benefit of sitting
of the middle seats.
Dude.
The benefit of three seats.
And I gave a nice lady an entire road to herself.
You said, hello, lady.
It's terrorism day, lady.
This was also, and I leaned over and I said,
and I said, these next five minutes won't be a problem.
Cage, we're going into the towers, Cage.
Swerf, Kedge.
Swerf, Kage!
Swerve Kegh, we're going to-Gabels, no.
Jack and Kyle Gass on the tiger.
I'm going to have to put it up Osama's ass.
Wow.
But the funny part also, this flight was packed, like not an open seat on the whole flight.
So I was just socially like, oh my God, we're going to be two guys with their own rows.
That is gross.
On a fully packed flight where everyone's in a bad mood.
It was empty as shit when I bought it to, which is why I went for this play.
Literally, everyone's in a horrible mood on this flight.
It's a red eye.
It's an M.D.R flight.
You know when the flight attendants are also mad?
Yeah.
Like there was his man behind us on the phone, just like having a phone call.
The flight attendant, I'm not exactly a lot of it, you're going to test this.
I'm not exaggerating.
She's going,
sir,
you need to get off the phone.
And she's like,
you're him,
I'm her.
This is how close she is.
Sir,
he's like,
sir,
you need,
yes.
And she says it maybe
six,
seven,
eight times,
and he just doesn't get off the phone.
Just stays on the phone.
That's fucking crazy.
And this is the guy right behind us.
Fuck you.
He was a devious man.
He initially sat in the wrong seat.
They came up.
They said he just sit in a different seat.
And then he needed his like son or,
friend
I absolutely
pulverized
I don't know
if they're related
they were both
the sun and or friend
and then I absolutely
pulverized Ludwig
and tick-dak-toe
oh my god
you heard DAC in the middle
by the way
it's a different type
of tic-tac-toe
on the plane
interesting
it's actually better
it's actually a good game
they actually fixed
they fixed
it's only on Delta
it's not tic-tac-toe
at all
it's actually connect four
it's just connect four
except
there's
certain
different
Certain holes are question marks, and if you get to them, you get power-ups.
So you're next, you have the option to play a power-up.
But it's called Tick-Tag-Dag-O.
Tick-Dact-T-O.
And the power-ups are pretty beast.
So like- It's like a bullshit game, and Nick was fucking rolling good power-ups.
He un-solved.
He's rolling great power-ups.
He tends to roll good.
I just say he rolls good.
I think I six-woned him.
Six-won?
That's embarrassing.
Not a sweet.
He rolled good for me.
Yeah, I don't know.
You get aces that many times.
it's either something's wrong with you or something's wrong with the
bro you get the wind power up you're just fucked
and I kept getting the wind power up
the wind is pretty good because it takes
the whole board and rotates it
and it confuses it and then it changes
you might have a couple
four in a rows and it didn't
zip or I send you something in the group chat
can you pull it up whenever you can
um but you just did not to use wind
did you guys have lost
did you guys have a lovely time oh
this is a
the kingdom hearts thing what yeah
and making fun
of me is dead it's a key it's the key blade to become one of kingdom hearts and he wants
to see how these are like my glasses that's what you put on your face so wow maybe we just
do like a round of applause or where does he get the keyblade from he gets it from a nobody oh because
it's it's the world that ever was dude this weekend i went to winatchie for uh a bachelor party for
My best friend from high school.
Where the hell is that?
Wenatchi.
It's in the mountains in Washington.
Why did you say Winachi?
What do you mean?
Is it known?
How you say it?
No, like the place.
Winashy?
I don't know.
If you're from Washington, he said it like it's like we all go there for Washington.
He said it like have a suit.
Winachy, Washington.
Yeah, I guess it is saying you went to Rifle, Colorado.
Yeah, I went to Rifle Colorado.
I went to Rifle.
And everybody was, what do you mean rifle?
All right, so what was in Wenatchi?
Well, his is the Bachelor, the presumed groom,
he's a huge fan of Kingdom Hearts,
and on the second night that we're all hanging out,
one of our friends, who's also Nick,
comes out dressed in a full, like, wizard costume,
and he's playing runescape, like wizard music
out of a Bluetooth speaker,
and he's changed his voice,
and he's like,
everyone, come for the ceremony!
and he, and he, he's, and we're all like, what the fuck's going on?
Nobody knows what's happening.
He ushers everyone down and he has crafted like three challenges through the house
and like guides us through the ceremony of how our groom, Alec, is, is becoming the protector
of the realm.
And at the end, he gave him a keyblade, like a full remade keyblade from his, like, favorite
video game.
Was the groom, was he, like, stoked on this?
Yeah, he thought it.
It sounds awesome.
Yeah, it was funny.
Funny is the best you can get in that situation.
It's really hit or miss.
It's really,
this is the most dope shit ever.
It can be fun activity.
Or it's like,
oh, God,
this is.
I mean,
it doesn't fucking hold a candle
to tempers fucking bachelor party.
Dude,
he had it at Scooter's jungle.
There was a bounce house.
That shit was late.
Oh.
I will say from what it sounds like
as a kingdom heart's head
and, you know,
another one on the panel here.
It sounds like he kind of fucked up.
It sounds like nothing had to do with Kingdom Hearts
He's low Kingdom Hearts
The Keyblade out of the end of it
The key blade at the end doesn't kind of make sense
Like Kingdom Hearts are very
So he tied it in
Like he kept calling us Organization 19
Because there's 19 people there
And uh
Good reference
W reference
And Nick doesn't play Kingdom Hearts at all
I can tell
Which makes it
He's saying RuneScape
Which makes it funnier
The things you can find from Google
He's the RuneScape
He's the RuneScape
He's the RuneScape Skits out
It's so funny to be like
oh my friend really likes Kingdom Hearts
how can I make RuneScape a part of this
It's more like he loves Kingdom Hearts
But I've only ever consumed Runecape
Yeah how do I get there
But the key blade he got at the end
Looked almost exactly like that one
And I was like that's crazy
He's just a fucking fire cake
And you're also wearing Mario Goatee
I am and I realize that
I have something
So I was unpacking my backpack in the airport
And like getting a charger out of the bottom of the bag
And I pulled on the cord
and then up flips onto the ground
a Polaroid of Luigi Goetzee
and this woman is just looking straight down on it
and I kind of make eye contact with her
neither of us say anything
I put it back in the bag
and I was like it's maybe it's time for this Polaroid
That's on her, that's on her mind your own fucking business
On 9-11 you mind your own fucking business
because you never know what'll happen
Why are you not allowed to have a bag
filled with Luigi Goetzee's?
I it just it feels like
she might have different X-Way
of what I'm about, you know?
What does she need to even have an expectation?
Her expectation should be that you don't have a bomb.
Maybe I need to set myself free.
That's it.
Maybe I need to set myself free, bro.
You could have 80 dildos in there
on your way to a fucking NFL game.
That's what his fucking country was built on.
Having dildos if you want.
Do you think you can bring,
don't you think that would qualify as a weapon?
If you bring a big enough dildo on a plane?
I mean, there's definitely dildos
that would be classified as weapons,
I don't think the ones that you're rocking
Get there.
Are you saying he uses small dildo?
What is that?
What is that fucking shot?
I don't think you,
I don't think you rock cause a powerful of dizzards.
If I had them,
they would be huge.
They would not be weapons.
They would not be weapons.
They would be monstrous.
They would be qualified as weapons.
It is embarrassing to think, like,
a dildo is like,
okay, you get the big one.
We want big dildos.
You quiver for some little shit.
No, I would.
Do they make small dildos?
That's my question.
Yes.
Like, do they make a dildo the size of my dick.
Let me tell you,
Most.
What are you talking about?
I'm talking about a dildo not a vibrational.
That was still most.
Not a vibrational.
I think most.
I've seen the cock you rock.
Yeah.
I think most.
You think most.
You haven't seen that cock hard.
I don't think so.
Also hard, it'd be really funny to have a dildo that size of my dick.
It would be so funny.
He'd be like, why?
Why do they make it?
That might be most of them.
I think it's most.
I mean, maybe, you know, a little bigger.
A little bit
Like, you know, slightly
But around the size
My beef is when they have dildos that are like
Pikachu and stuff
You've seen like the crazy characters
Or it's like Pickle Rick
And it's like who's
Pickle Rick makes sense
Whose preference is that though
Imagine having an earth-shattering orgasm
To Pickle-Rick
It was like that guy who was
Showcasing
What's the ones where it's the
Tubes?
Flashlights
Okay
You're showcasing
fleshlights on TikTok. Yeah. But there'd be
like crazy Rick and Morty mouth.
I feel like... Oh my God. Do you remember this one?
Pickle Rick Dildo might be, it's
a dildo that's been used in
more sexual encounters that are
filmed than not.
There has to be a pickle rick porn
scene where someone is just dressed in green.
This guy, he shows off
fleshlights. So he's got like the tone.
Oh, no, Mike Wazowseye. He's got the
tone made of fleshlight.
Oh, leave Mike out of this man.
All he does is show ridiculous ones. And definitely
Don't look up burdo. They both got the teeth out too. I don't like that. Dude, Mike Wissowski and it's poking out the back of his skin.
Oh, you know what? Oh, my God. Yuck. We've done this bit for sure. He's doing the thing, but it's just his whole head.
Damn, you think Sully's got hair on it? Yes. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Why not? Up to the tip.
No, monkeys have like bare ass red penis. And the tip is pink. Oh, but he's not a monkey. No, but what I'm saying is like,
animals that we see their penises red bear how many animal penises you seen so many
like so my dogs a cowl you see a dog oh a skull oh this one's just inclusive have you seen
have you seen a giraffe penis day of the dead the death I can't I don't want to
okay have you I think we have on this pod no yeah we've probably seen mostly animal
pieces we've seen it's probably been on this pot yeah on our trip we went to we went
a land cafe. We ran into shake drizzle
in New York. This is
real. What do you talk? He was actually
He was actually... Oh my God, it's right. He went to Wolfpack.
And so we had up a land cafe. We three-stacked some league.
And the piece, this is the same place
that I went to with CP. And
we sat down
at this computer, Lubbeck sat down
on a computer and the last person left their whole
life logged in. They were logged in on everything. They logged into their
Google suite. They were logged into Discord.
I had access to the Twitter.
And they were following a lot of right wing.
Oh, they were falling hell of right wing pundits.
And they were probably logged in for a while
because I went to their Discord
and their name on Discord was I Love Children.
Yeah, their Discord name was I Love Children, All Caps.
And I felt like I love Maconan.
I thought it was self-and-I thought that's like
just what they call themselves on Discord.
It was like weird.
And then I realized, oh no, someone just changed it
because they've just been logged in.
You weren't the first one there.
I don't know if that's true.
It is.
And I know it's true because I entered a Discord call.
What?
But did they mention it?
Yeah, I was on his account and I went into a Discord course.
Yeah, that's so sick.
This is where I was going.
And it was like one of the top, you know, discords was popping and I hop in.
And the moment I hop in the guy goes, Ribbon.
He goes, no, it was really sweet.
He goes, hey Rubin.
And he's, and he's like all excited to see Rubin.
And then there's, it's like a girl too.
She's like, oh my gosh, Rubin.
Oh my God, he doesn't show up in the call on.
That's what they're like, he's back.
That's how they phrased it, like, he's back.
And I was like, and I was like, what up to Rubin?
Dude, that's so funny.
And I think, that's not Rubin.
I think Ruben must sound like a quivering pussy comparatively,
because they instantly clocked.
I wasn't Rubin.
And love goes, what do you mean?
I love children.
Dude, do you think that maybe that,
maybe this is thinking of a better world where,
The Twitter account was normal, but then someone followed a bunch of right-wing stuff.
The way we ruined that one guy's algorithm in the Airbnb.
It was very subtle, like, Trump retweets.
It wasn't like the funny ones.
It was just, like, random announcements.
I read one DM, and it said, Steve Bannon is back, exclamation point.
Oh, my God.
I've never heard someone say that before.
That is crazy.
By the way, the computers run like shit.
No, they're great.
Oh, interesting.
Except for mine, because within about 30,
seconds of hitting the PC Cafe.
The second we get that.
I'm waiting for Nick because he's getting his stuff set up.
And so I'm like, oh my God, I would love to read the newest chapter of One Piece.
Of course.
What?
Is that not something that you do at a Land Cafe?
Read One Piece?
Yes, read manga.
That's normal.
Well, did you get butt-ass naked like you usually do?
Yeah.
Because that's the problem.
I'm butt-ass naked.
And then I go to read it.
But now, I should clarify.
I'm reading it on TCB scans because it's not available through the official release.
And so when I open it, it says, you have to click this box to prove you're a human.
I go, fair, of course.
And then it says, like, click here to read.
And I click here.
And then something downloads.
And I'm like, that's weird.
I don't want to download it.
I want to watch it in my browser.
It's usually weird because it's weird.
And then I, I, I, I, I,
Re-click it because I feel like it is something wrong and then as I do that it pops up with fucking McAfee Antivirus pop-ups
Like on the computer just goes ding he's getting like three a minute it's so
It's literally like I drag it and it and at 15 seconds later it's like ding and it's like another fucking
Did you brick a Lancaffe? I know I just threw a bunch of adware on it
It loves like I think I gave the computer malware and I'm like dude we've been here for like five minutes how the fuck you do that
like one piece. I'm like, I hate you so much. And I couldn't even get the one piece thing
open without ad block. It was literally too hard to do without ad block. The guy comes
over, the guy who like runs the cafe comes over and he's like, hey, did you download
anything? No. He dead ass said that. He was like, so embarrassing. He was like, he was pretty
high here. Do you download anything? I went, nope.
Why would you say no? Why would you say no? Fuck as fuck him. Nope. No what do you mean?
What I mean? We're gonna know somebody else. Hold up. Hold up. I have many evil thoughts
there. I thought about tweeting on this guy's account.
I thought about messaging someone.
I thought about being mischievous, okay?
But here's how I ended it, okay?
I didn't do anything on his accounts.
But I left-
Joined the call.
Nope, I just opened every single tab
that he was logged into
and I left it open.
And I said,
if the next person wants to be
a fucking evil person,
that's on them.
I've done nothing wrong here.
I think that's fine.
I think that's fine.
You're in a fucking
Lankfay and log out of your shit.
I did nothing.
To be,
to be like completely fair to this guy,
I don't know how it works.
It's very confusing.
because so like you you don't just like get on a computer and like play games it's like you have an account at the land cafe yeah and it's what's supposed to happen is when you log into your account if you have if you have passwords saved and stuff or whatever or i think it's just full wipes every time you leave it's what's supposed to happen like a library like logs out of the whole thing when i when i use these PCs on my account i check every single time i log in i play i log out of oh my god i didn't log out of anything i log back in and it auto logged me out of everything i don't know why
Whenever I go and sit down, the last person is logged in, but it never happens to me.
Maybe he paid for like two hours, an hour goes by.
He loses his league game, and he's like, oh my God, I'm late for the rally.
Maybe he does like an auto save feature or something.
I don't know.
But he's not logged in.
I'm logged in.
It's weird.
It's not really no, no, it's super matter.
But I just go back in hindsight.
You can just go onto your accounts from home and just unlog yourself from home, which is what I make sure.
And what I said, by the way, when I left to the owner, okay, who was smoking a cigarette.
at a minute. And he's outside
smoking a cigarette. I go, I think
the last guy might have downloaded
some malware on my computer.
And I went, maybe
that was the ping issue. And he goes,
no, the ping issue is something else. Someone was downloading a game.
So you're good. And I went, I went.
But I think it's
maybe it's a power. Maybe.
There's Bonzi, buddy,
jumping from monitor to monitor on every computer.
He's just like, yeah
I guess this is a fucking big a guest
So we just showed up
We entered all of our games
Downloaded malware
Hacked a guy
Committed a crime
And won a road game
And then won the road game
And then peace the fuck out
And then shake drizzle
Slept on our couch
Shake drizzle
Linking up with you guys is crazy
It was awesome
It was awesome
He got mad at me
Because the other day
We were talking about like
I was talking about how people
In Grandmaster would be like
Low Master dog
pig, and I was like, Shakespeare's been playing his whole life
he's Lottmaster. He messaged me this
morning, and he's like, I'm feeling my whole
life. He's like, I played for seasons one through
three, and then
one year since
today, last year when Ludwig
started playing it because he made me play. I'm playing my whole
life, and I was like, oh, he threw in because he made
me play? Yeah. Because I don't
fucking play. Well, last
year. He's still playing.
He is still playing.
Yeah, but you got him back on the smoke.
is crazy.
It's not, like, I got him back on the fucking smoke.
This isn't crack cocaine.
It's not Charlie Sheen's fucking story.
No, I think it is that.
It kind of is.
Charlie Sheen notes that he got addicted to crack
when he did it for his first time
and he got a blow job from a hooker.
Oh, at the same time?
Yes.
That's dangerous.
I will, yeah.
Because it combines the feelings.
Oh, yeah.
Yes, and he never went back.
But I did not blow shake drizzle
when he played a fucking game of league.
No, you just introduced him to the girl.
No, the league is the girl.
Yeah, it's an awesome.
on and off again relationship
with the worst girl
that he's ever hated.
Here's the real tea
that people don't want to say.
You did what you did
at the Land Cafe.
You set out the blow
and then called the girl over
and said,
I don't know what happens next.
Like a fucking...
I think,
I think genuinely
League is not the problem.
Excuse me, Sister.
League is not some
like crack cocaine blow job
that you can't
help possibly succumb to.
I think the problem
is ego.
Ego.
That's the problem.
People who are addicted to league
are obsessed with their own
ego and they think that they deserve
some crazy rank
and that's and that
the ride is holding it away from it.
And literally, and literally, period, by the way.
And they need to play
to prove to
the world that they are the rank
they think they are. I disagree, cock sucker
and here's why. I don't think. I've been playing
normals and I just really want to
play. It gives you addictive cookies. That's because you are literally doing like edging. You're
gooning. I'm not going. Yeah, you're only allowed to play 21 ranked games a fucking week and so
you had four days where you couldn't play ranked. So you're dead ass edging because you're waiting
for your rank. You're fucking edging. You would never, you would never play a normal if you were
never fucking play a normal. You would never play a normal if you weren't limited. You're
fucking edging. You're edged in the car on the way here. That's why you were fucking late. You're
edging and you couldn't wait for yesterday when Sunday hit and you got oh my God, I got to
ranked. I did. It's so much harder. It's like we set up this system. It's like this beautiful
system so that we don't play too much league. And in your head, you're like, I'll just play
normal. That's different. Okay, okay. Nick, we went to a land cafe and played on it all. I was
bonding with you. I know, but you're not better. I wouldn't have gone there alone.
No, no, no, no, no. No, sure, for sure. Are most people playing A-Ramp?
Most people play league, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But they're not. You're wrong. No, I'm saying
I'm saying
You're a wrong bitch
I'm saying in the shake drizzle sense
Because he's saying that I am the one
Who brought him back to league
Miles actually
Miles actually put it like really
Eloquently recently
He like said like league is a
Is a game for people
Who are looking for a very specific
Type of dopamine
And your whole game
You were just looking for situations
Where you can land that dopamine cycle
And if you miss it
A.k.a. your team fucking into
or you get killed or whatever
That's what makes you tilt
is you're not getting the dopamine
You came here and looked for
specifically. Winning feels pretty good,
but winning and also doing those things is what you
really want. And I think that, especially
why A-RAM is popular, is
because it's just only that part. It distills
the crazy dopamine
releases. It's just, you just
literally, and then you have none of the
potential downside of
defeat. Why are you addicted
to counterstrike, bitch?
What do you wake up and queue for?
What do I wake up in Q for? Like, what do you look
forward to? What is it all about?
Is it headshots?
Is it clutches?
Is your shirt off your chie?
No, keep it on.
I like it.
What's it all about?
You want me to wrap up?
What's it?
The whole thing.
What is it,
million dollar boy?
It's like a rank, no?
Like 20 fucking 1K.
No.
I think not in general.
I really,
really like the, like,
fundamental improvement at the game.
Like, I think it is fun
to explore these different parts
of,
attack shooter that I previously got kind of good at in Valerant and applied to something new
and like learn all these like little things and try to pull it together into a win and then
just try to do that over and over and get a little better than I get a little better than I was
the day before I guess what I'm thinking of specifically is like in street fighter cammy has
crouching medium punch and it has a fucked up hit box that you kind of invisible and you can
whiff punish people with it and if you're fucking sick you hit them and then you do a combo
and you kill him
with a move
that kind of shouldn't exist
and that is what I
think I play Street Fighter
for in a way
So you want to know
what my max dopamine
moment is in Counter-Strike
it's
I think genuinely
it's when
I call an A split
on Mirage
like three mid
two ramp
ramp people wait to push out
we throw two smokes down mid
and we pinch with perfect
util and we take the site
and we win the round
that's the highest
dopamine that I have
I just I just
guy just cracked your whole ego man that's that's got your full download a that's the greatest
feeling in the world because it's like so you the greatest feeling in the world is being listened
to it's no no no no because if we could do it without me saying anything that would also be great
it's the it's the idea of everyone understanding their position and role and us like fully executing
the full potential of the game in that moment as a team he's towing in counterstrike oh my god
you're getting all the power strips on all the stations he doesn't need the credit he just
wants it all to work out and just say he wants the he wants the system to function and he wants everyone
to have fun he wants to be with his friends in particular actually i can synthesize it i can synthesize it
into the perfect into the perfect moment there was it because me and yingling played so much valor
together and i think there's a lot of we were we were forged in the fires of of doss and co-chain
and we both learned the game in a very similar way and as a result we do things when it's just us too
without having to talk about everything which is really cool and we do like so
there will be a moment where like we're on opposite sides of a fight
and we don't have to say anything.
And like he swings, shoots, pulling that guy's attention
and then I swing and get the kill.
And it's like, and that's maxed dopamine.
It's like we played it perfect.
Nonverbal like soul link.
And we played it perfectly.
And it's, and it's,
no one had to have amazing aim for that to happen.
No one needed the headshot.
It was because we executed like a perfect team play in that moment
that is so hard to get with a solo cue teammate,
but because we were forged in the fires together.
We come out on top
I love the fires for you
Yeah
The fires are where you belong
That's what
That's what I want
I've been stressed out
That's wrong man
I'm stressed
What's right what's wrong?
His love wig said
I need to start watching
One piece
And he got so into it
And I was like
I gotta impress my friend
I'm gonna start eating gum gum
Fruits
You're saying only gum gumgum fruits
Home at home
And I try to
I don't
But there's no recipes
For gum gum
So I'm trying every meal
I'm trying to make the fruit
In my kitchen
It's probably going really bad
It's filled with random things
from my fridge in my cabinets that I slap with gum together.
And I'm stressed that I'm not eating.
I'm not even stressed.
Do you realize that planning your meals can be simple and stress-free?
Do you realize that?
Yeah, you don't have to try to make gum-gum fruit.
No.
How else I get my friend to like me?
You can use Hungry Root, Aiden.
You know what last week, Hunger Root sent us some food
and I tried some of it?
You know what they sent us?
They sent us the grass-fed beef patties,
which were delicious, by the way,
beef burgers, rather.
They were delicious.
They tasted exactly like my mama used to make.
I don't understand.
Do I still have to build it from the things in my kitchen?
No, you don't have to build anything.
They send it to you.
They send it to you.
You just get to do it.
No understanding.
Yeah, we also have had the Flaminian tasted like it was straight from Fleming's, the restaurant.
It was delicious.
I couldn't make a steak like that if I fucking try it.
It sounds like it would take a long time.
It wouldn't take a long time.
It sounds like you're spending about seven hours trying to make some sort of gumgum prude to impress your friend who doesn't know your middle name.
I'm like the ingredients.
He knows it.
He does not care about you.
He does not care about you eating.
gum gum fruit and he doesn't know your middle name.

His is his Cammy fucking...
I feel like you, it's when you land three coin flips in a row.
And you're like, yes!
The coin flips feel fun, but I have been more disciplined these days in this world.
For instance, that crouching medium punch with punish is not a coin flip.
That is a calculated, like, landing of a move that is actually pretty safe.
And if I hit it, I'm a spacing god.
So I've been more precision maxing these days and caring if I, like, play better.
Four years ago, it was swinging in front of your...
cypher trip and somehow killing four people.
And that, when you
describe it like that, it sounds pretty good.
You just want to,
when you played Valer, you'd put yourself in the
worst positions because if you hit the flick,
it was like, ooh!
Yeah, it was so juicy. It was so juicy.
Dude, why did that game fall off?
Yeah, me and Lubbocked dog, why did
Vowran felled off? I mean, you've been following it so
closely. So massive, man.
I think it was our documentary.
You think so. I think it's finally.
Super T. F watched it on stream. I think it's finally
hit in the algorithm? It tainted the Valorant pool. Yep, people found out Loser's Q is real.
They admitted it. They were like, why the fuck are we playing this game as
losers queue? Watch this documentary I saw. It's on this low-key website. It's like, right-way
probably. Just watch the documentary, bro. It says all for you. We need to get this
conspiracy far along enough that they have to YouTube community notes that video.
Yeah, I love being shoot. I met someone who said they worked at Riot and I was like,
have you seen our documentary? It was in the Slack? And she was like, what?
What are you talking about?
I was like, never mind.
I was all right.
Dude, I have, I've been playing normal.
I just, I really want a game these days.
And so it's mostly what I do.
And I play normals.
And I might get chat band before the fucking grace of goal is over.
Because they do not like what I say.
For some reason, Riot, I've tried to be creative.
I've said that basically my juggler, I'll be like, my juggler fucks his sister.
What do you want me to do?
Yeah.
Wait, pause.
Where did you really put your creative input there?
Where do you think you influenced that the most?
What you're talking about?
When you say you want to fuck your sister?
You said, I'll be creative.
I try to be creative instead of saying like,
child molester.
He's trying to be creative in the sense that he's trying to find new ways
to insult that aren't.
You're trying to date.
Hold on.
You're flying too close to the sun.
You're not,
it's not surprising that you would be banned.
You're trying to get around this answer.
I'm not, yeah.
You thought sister fucker was going to dodge the sensor?
Yeah.
Well, it has.
so far. You want something that cuts through the sensor but is also extremely
hurtful still. Yeah. Some guy dude oh my god I was playing a guy in my normal with Zeke
because he was just doing so bad. I was like I know it's a normal but Jesus Christ
it is so unlucky to be playing with you it sucks and and I get but then I was like but
I guess that's also how league works sometimes you get you and sometimes the other team
doesn't get you and then the guy was like he's playing yes so he's like this isn't very
nice and I was like I'm not trying to be nice this is this is I had this thought last week
when we were describing the things you'd been saying in league jet because when you log on to
league and you play people say horrific things in the chat and you and they and they do
terrible things and they and they you know there's an array of awful league team mates that
we only see through the champion and not the person on the other end and it's very
interesting because in the past two weeks I've realized that you're the one of the guys
You're one of the guys that people log on and then talk about after.
Only sometimes.
I think one doesn't matter.
No, but it only has to be sometimes for you to be the guy.
I'm okay with it.
Because we're all the guys sometimes.
One hijack makes you a terrorist.
Sometimes we're all typers.
And I'm okay with that.
Because most of the time I defen.
I am never a typer.
I don't think I don't have all chat on.
I think that's cap because when you stream to people when you were grinding a bunch of
league and you would literally tell your your chatters to kill themselves.
that's a way of, that's typing.
No, no, no.
That's typing.
Like, that's a way of doing that.
But the people who logged into play league had a great experience.
That chatter who said, why did you flash there?
Might have had a bad one.
But you're also saying this to the people on your team without them knowing,
even though you're being broadcasted.
Why can't you do that?
Why can't you be in the shower talking about?
I'm not saying you can't.
But that's typing.
I think he's trying to pull us in.
He's trying to whirlpool us into this.
All three of us are nothing like you again.
What are you talking about?
What are you?
What are you?
I'm not.
What are you talking about?
I hear you have arguments on fucking, like, 40 minute arguments on Cisco.
Yeah, but his arguments are always about justice of like a call not being listened to.
No, and also I don't fucking, I don't flame the people who like don't listen to the call.
I like wait for somebody to get fucking out of pocket and I'm like, you can't, and then I argue with them.
And you're like, sister fucker said what?
Yeah.
No, I say sister fucker when things go wrong.
I don't say it right away when,
When we're fucking, when the game starts falling apart, I'm like, I'm just stay quiet, stay quiet, stay quiet, and then shit goes fucking really bad and I'm like, you know what? It's sister fucking time. That's not what happens. It is, I'm being misrepresented. Like the thing, like it's corroborant. You, it's not when things are going really wrong. It's when you think they're going wrong, which is so different in terms of time. Not true. Yes, it is. You give up so much earlier than it's actually done. No smile.
Fly and lose his tier one tower. Guess the game's over. Yeah.
the whole game's over. I guess it's going to cascade into a beautiful loss. I still play and I don't flame.
No, no, no, no, you do flame and you stop playing. No, I don't. Yes, you do. I'm being misrepresented.
I said this before on stream. I actually agree because I watched a few moments in your last stream where you were getting so mad at random shit, like in your chat or like your teammates or whatever, and you would just perma, look at chat, walk down mid, get into a fight because you're walking forward and then die. And then you'd be like, and then I fucking died. So now you're banned.
Uh, that happened like once or twice.
Look, man, this is your journey.
It doesn't happen a lot.
This is your journey.
It doesn't affect me.
But I've talked to many people about your journey.
Because they bring it up.
And at basketball, they brought it up.
And what nobody ever says is, yeah, as volleyball bear is pretty good in Lane.
They bring up consistently the way you communicate with people and how angry you get.
This is fucking cap, bro.
Atrio, that's not me.
Atriott comes to basketball.
And he goes, he goes, yeah, I watched slime.
He said he was going to be nicer today.
And then he just kept calling.
everyone's sister fuckers.
I said that, like, twice.
Also, I said I was going to be nicer to chat.
Which you also weren't, though.
I was way nicer than I was the day before.
Terrorist downgrades to pedify.
There's a mischaracterization that happens
that I am a spiny guy and I get mad
and this and that.
And when I improve, I still get painted
as the same, like, hideous fucking evil monster,
which also, I don't think is even that bad
compared to most people
that play this fucking awful game.
Do you think you are not a spiny guy
who gets mad?
You said mischaracterizing.
No, I am.
But I think the severity of which
that gets sort of like,
I don't know, amplified,
specifically on this show,
which is fine,
it's a show,
is a mischaracterization
that ends up, like,
leaking into the real life.
It's like...
I think people,
I think you believe
people should not count
your extreme moments
because they don't
represent the average
but I think
the extreme moments
are what people
remember
I agree
but what it's worth
I almost
100% agree with you
I think
I think you're actually
totally right
people take a
enhanced idea
of your character
that is heavily
perpetuated
through the show
but I agree with this too
but you take
an enhanced defense
of your character
yeah
someone's gonna defend me
because no one else
is gonna be
you know the guy
you did a sprint interview
with
and he was like
this is a psychotic human being.
It's crazy that that guy exists.
He's on the opposite side of the prison yard from you,
but you're still in the prison guard.
That's crazy.
That actually, let's go.
That's crazy.
And honestly, if I'm being honest,
the three of us are on the outside of the fence looking at it.
Fat him!
Yes, very much so.
He's a good boy.
Yes.
Mr. Kill yourself in chat?
You know, this is different.
This is different.
Okay, it's different.
It is.
It's different.
Let's just...
We might be on trial.
We can put him on trial.
It's different.
Okay.
What is...
What is your...
I'll turn into a baby.
No baby.
No baby.
You should get bitter.
Six years older up.
What is your idea of yourself?
Like if that guy you did this sprint you with, who is just a genuine psychotic person is like, you know, the far fucking right, evil most, you know, top 0.001%.
To be clear, that guy is.
Yes.
guy is not like you.
I'm saying in, in, like, they're not like us.
In this gradient, he's in the top point zero, zero one percent of, like, evil people
on league.
And then, like, you know, all the way over here, like the sweetest angel on League of Legends
with no...
Nicest person ever.
They just play the game.
They love it.
They fucking upvote.
They communicate well.
If you look at all the data, and I'm going to get fucking clown for this.
Sure, sure, sure, sure.
And I just want another percentile of evil.
If you look at the fucking, all the fucking data, including the highs and the lines and the
And also that I'm willing to admit mistakes publicly and personally.
And I would love to include that.
Because I think that's a big problem with a lot of people.
So many people won't even admit it.
You're right. You're right. A lot of people won't back down and you back down sometimes.
I'm right in the middle.
You are the top 50% of evil. So you're average.
Average. You're average. Most people would boot up the game and have like a, again,
just a good time learning the game, trying their best.
That's not fucking true. That is not true. That's not how people play this game.
They log on, they go insane.
No, this is...
This is the bias of the people you notice.
The average person, I would say, boots up the game
and just tries to play it and have a good time.
I think it's average person.
Three people in chat talk to each other
and the other, the rest of them say nothing.
Yeah, that's a good point.
I think most people don't type, right?
Yeah, most people don't type.
That are the ones we remember.
Maybe it's a little higher than that.
I'm 50%.
Still 50%.
Yeah.
Okay.
All right, okay.
Because you're taking my typing
for like, he types every single game.
I'm going to blow your mind right now.
I'm going to blow your mind.
the same thing that you're doing with chat
where you go, those are the people you remember,
that's what people are doing with you.
I know.
Your most extreme moments, those are the three chatters.
And that's okay, I'm just here to set the record straight
for those who wish to listen for two seconds.
Yeah.
That's all I want to do.
Those who are willing to open their fucking minds.
Those who are willing to just watch a fucking 10 minute video
where we fucking talk to the people at Riot
and we've kind of found something out.
And it's not what you think it is.
It's not a place that operates business
like you thought it did.
Redoing the video buffered.
movie. We've talked about it. I thought about that
the other day. Wait, but I'm like the fuck. I think
we brought this up last year, but I'm the fucked up
Wojack who's like insane looking.
It's like there's Valor it and then there's like league
despair where I'm just like, yeah.
I thought it'd be funny if we like shot another one.
It was about league, but I was more
like slime has somehow convinced me to drink the
Kool-Aid now. I'm not like the straight man.
So he's fully crazy but I'm
inting and getting mad and mad at the game and whatever
and you're like the sage,
like I told you
I told you
and then we both go with a mission
that I end up sobered
like what the fuck am I doing
why am I hanging out
I'm like Ferman Supreme
I got like necktack shoes
and I look like fucking
Rick Ruben
and we actually do like
like there's Easter eggs
and we cross by a room
with candles laid in a circle
that we don't see
and like we hate that there is
something greater
but we don't even discover it
like I had this whole idea
I was thinking about all this the other day
oh god
I made Nick fucking jealous
jealous
I'm fucking jealous
I'm fucking jealous
you guys had an adventure
he got to be your pipe
on the trip
I don't know he's talking about
well apparently
in New York this week
it's New York fashion week
and
wait how is
you're gonna
set on a rake with this story
and we were walking
outside the hotel
yeah
and the bell hop
we're leaving
some of our luggage
the bellhop goes
you guys look great
you guys have great
outfits
thought we were a gay couple
you look great
was the bell hop
no
okay
No, no, he's just being very nice, he's giving a, you know, men never hear a compliment until it's on their deathbed.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
But what I found is that gay men, or I guess, sort of openly gay men are much more willing to be, like, compliment you, which is always a nice feeling.
He could have been, or closet.
But you know what I'm saying?
He could have been.
He could have been.
But he was like, you guys look great.
And then, you know, Nick, right after this interaction, turns to me.
Yeah, the guy's no longer here.
Yeah, the guy's no longer here.
He turns to me, and he goes, he was talking about me.
Okay.
He does that.
Fucking little assort.
I literally was like, you're a charity case.
You got included in my outfit.
And by the way, I have that shit on.
Like, I'm wearing a wife beater.
You do, you never have that shit.
I'll tell you his exact outfit.
I know my outfit.
Wife beater.
Wife beater with a Lakers Gap
jean jacket.
Yep.
I'm wearing shorts.
Basketball shorts.
Basketball shorts.
I'm wearing a fanny pack.
This fanny pack.
Mid-Caff Nike socks with the Magellos.
Magellas.
Magellus.
Mason Margellas.
okay and and I got that shit on and he's wearing the same fucking shorts
I wasn't basically the same outfit except a new shirt and not these shoes okay and so
then and so then he says he says mean little fucking comment this mean little comment
nasty and so then we go to a store shopping at a store
completely far away from this place far away from this place and I and I'm looking for a belt
and Nick goes up to this woman who works here he goes hey we're looking for belts and
then and then she's like oh yeah it's this way and then and then she stops and she
He goes, wow, you guys look great.
And then the other store associate, two people.
Two people go, yeah, you guys have a great outfit.
They're like, you got that shit on.
And we're like, oh my God, thank you.
I'm like, what the hell?
And so, like, he was fucking, he was trying to fucking take this way from me,
but three people vouched that I had that shit on.
Like, I know how to fucking style myself.
Well, no, no, there's a next part of this story.
No, it's the other story.
So we keep walking and bless this nice associate.
She's trying to help us out.
I go, but if you had to pick one,
one. But if you
had to pick one and she goes
that she points at me
like I mean I gotta go. That does that feel
bitch? She took a long time to think about it
and then she said right after but I
like what you're doing with the Nike socks
and the Magellas. Oh and that feels good that
when she looked over but that's nice
that feels good to you and then after the interaction
Lund's like fuck was that
I'm like I just had to show you you're getting lumped in
I'm not getting lumped in I'm not going to
walk into this door alone I don't know if they're going to be like
bro you got that shit on it's basically it's
basically like, like, who's the best player in the Dodgers?
And she was like, I gotta go to Shohay, but like,
Freddie Freeman looks fucking great out there.
Yeah, you're Freddie Freeman.
I'm okay with being Freddie Freeman.
Yeah, only because you're not showay.
What?
You know what I mean?
Like, you have to take that.
You're a bitch.
You're a little bitch.
No, I'm not a bitch for that.
I'm not a bitch for that.
To love you credit, his point is not I had that shit on.
His point is why take it away from me?
Yeah.
Why take it out?
You know what?
He's right.
No, no, there's an answer because it's hilarious.
Because usually you guys say that I've bad outfits,
which today I'm crushing.
Usually you guys say I have bad outfits.
And so, like, I'm trying to fucking prove to you that regular-ass people look at what I've put on and they go damn.
I don't, if you were dog-ass ugly, a lot of this shit you do and say would not fly.
No one says damn to you, bro, and you're mad about it.
And I'm on the team, I'm Freddie Freeman.
You're not Freddie Freeman.
I'm like a guy in the office.
I'm the guy like phoning in New York to see if that play was good.
I'm in the paper.
Well, I'm not on the paper.
I'm not on the paper.
we were walking down the street
and there was an ad for the paper
we saw or something we were talking about the paper
and I was doing a bit where I was like
well me and fucking Anthony are going to be famous soon
because we acted with Eric Rayhill who's in the paper
and our product's gonna come out
after the paper so he'll already be a mega celebrity
and then we walk by a billboard for the paper
and Ludd's like oh which one is he
and it's just everyone in the show besides Eric Rayhill
he just didn't make the poster
and I'm looking at it I'm like
it's so bad for us
like yeah he's not on those
He's not on it
He's not on it
He's in season two
Not good on it
Well the season two
Posters like really where
Because the show will be bigger
That's when it pops off
So season two posters
Probably where you want to be really
I don't care about the season one poster
I was doing a bit this weekend
In my head
Which was
Okay sorry
What
What the fuck do you want?
I'm doing a bit in my head this week
What are you fucking want?
What do you think I do with my time?
It's just a crazy start
To anything
There's a crazy start
I were fucking crazy
shit all day, but no one says anything.
Oh, we're being hurtful today.
We're very hurtful. You started, I was
doing a bit in my head.
Do you not do bits in your head?
I mean, like, yeah, but I've never started a sentence like that
ever. Okay, so I guess you were saying, you don't, you don't like be honest.
That's not what I said. It's like, I was like, I was taking a dump today.
You're like, we're taking a dump? It's like, we all take dumps.
It's, I'm just brave.
Okay, so you're brave for this.
I'm bravely doing a bit in my head where it's like, a guy who's
of ventriloquist who wants to kill
himself.
Yeah, that's good.
He's like,
like, oh,
my God.
Oh, my God, I'm so
sad.
I'm going to
till myself.
Is this not the bar
for bar, the Caleb
Bitts bit?
It's the same voice.
But yeah,
he can only communicate
through the puppet,
and he said he's like
doesn't it
audience is like, do you ever feel like
you're alone in the universe?
Do you guys, maybe we should take
like each week, it's like one of our turns
to take him on a walk.
What is how we're on about?
I don't need a walk.
The crushing weight of my reality
is crashing down on my brain.
Oh my God, nothing feels nice any nor.
None of the SSRIs are doing anything
for my mental state.
I'll do first shift.
Yeah, first shift.
We can hang out this week.
We can hang out this week.
Don't worry.
Everything that I liked detour doesn't make me feel good any nor.
That's right, Ahmed.
Geez, Ogma, you sound pretty sad.
I am so tear at least a...
Peanut.
I am being serious.
This is a cry for a felt.
See, see, that's what he does.
That's what Slat does.
Okay?
Slat.
He's be back.
You don't back me up. You don't back me up. You don't fucking back me up in the Salesforce Lamborghini, which I put sugar in the gas tank, bitch.
Bitch? I don't say for that to happen. I bricked it. I'm done with it anyway, man.
Yeah, I'm sure you'll ride. The Salesforce Lamborghini's already done. All the happiness from getting it is gone now.
Got lemonade stands in the New York Times. Do you know that? Really? They got mentioned in the New York Times because they talked to that fired woman.
How do you? You did talk to an unemployed woman.
You talk to that meat.
She's a damn neat.
Damn neat.
She's a teacher, bro.
I just don't know what to do without my job.
It's okay, Lena.
Come on the lemonade sand.
And it makes you feel better?
This is good news for us.
They're falling off drastically.
They're falling off?
Dras, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
Lemonade sand is falling off the face of the fucking er.
We're not falling off.
Oh, you're not falling off.
We can fucking pull up the numbers.
We can pull the numbers.
We're falling on too.
Why?
I heard you talking to Atriag about this yesterday.
I...
Go ahead.
It could be.
It could be us falling off.
What do you think that's happening?
But why is it happening to a bunch of people at the same time?
So...
Is it because Doug's HP?
Yeah.
It's not because the HP.
Doug is sliding in one frame of HP in every episode.
And if you sync up the episodes...
Because phase rain went live talking about Doug, Doug.
Mm-hmm.
You can be right, you lumped them in, man.
And you...
And he was there with phase temper, bro.
Because Ray was there, bro.
Rain has three rules, bro.
He talked to two 16-year-old chatpots.
Raines had three fucking rules, and that's all he follows.
You got to respect that.
No fucking petos.
No fucking animal abuse.
And it's no fucking petos again.
And also I have a fucking photographic memory, bro.
Yeah.
He was...
Is that what Rain is saying?
Yeah, yeah.
Rain says he can remember everything he ever read.
Nick says that shit.
Nick says that shit and he's wrong every time.
What are you talking about?
Nick, you talk about how good your memory is.
I got these memory.
It's kind of butt.
What?
It's falling off.
Well, I believe that.
Lemonade stand style.
I believe that because I'm becoming your fucking ages.
It's a very generic decline.
I have a dope-ass memory, but for the useless shit.
Not for arguments between friends, which is probably the most useful one.
Yeah.
Well, I don't think it's the most useful.
I think it...
Like, if it's a movie quote, I remember the intonation of syllables.
Yeah, you...
It's really bad.
Oh, you're great with references.
I'm terrible with references.
You have a powerful brain for any piece of media you consume between the
of zero and 18, which is why if I frame our interactions as media, not a
other way, then I'm very much able to accurately, photographically
remembering, much like phase-rame.
Let me remember this media that I watched, and it's our conversations.
Yeah, I have, I would have to do that, which I refuse to do because then that would
prove all the people-
But here's my prediction, and here's my question.
Preds. Two-fold, preads.
Two-preds. What is this, a face-step-pring party?
Oh, man.
Oh, man.
I'll have you know the first week
I came to L.A. He was the first celebrity I saw
Really? I feel the need to defend him
Yeah
Was he at Puppet?
You know, I was in Santa Monica and he was just going on a run
And it was like my second day
After moving down and I was like
Oh, you must just see these people all the time
I have a problem recently where I can smell them through my jeans
Smell it through your jeans
I can smell them
I can smell them
Yeah I can smell my own guy
through my jeans. So I subscribe to this delivery system monthly. It's about $700 a month. It's
ball deodorant. And it doesn't work. It doesn't work. You're still smelling through the jeans.
I smell them through the jeans. It doesn't change anything about it. How long have you been
subscribed to the- About two years? Two years? Dude, doing quick math? That is $18,000.
Yeah. That is $18,000? I keep calling them and they say, well, how do you figure out, it's that long? At some point you probably wanted to
cancel it. So I don't know what to do basically. You shut up about your balls because I think you
have an issue that money can't solve. But I have a solution for your fucking funds for your wallet.
Okay, sure. Okay. I think it's called Rocket Money. Oh, right. Maybe if he had Rocket Money,
he would have found out he had an unwanted subscription because it doesn't work because the smell.
Well, I also call them up and I can't cancel. They won't let me cancel. You said, what is it?
It's a personal finance app that finds and cancels your unwanted subscriptions, monitors your
spending and helps lowers your bills so you can grow your savings. They say the smell doesn't go away
when I call. They say the smell will never disappear a little bit. Oh yeah, you can't see all your
subscriptions in one place, Nick. And the dashboard gives you a clear of your expenses across all
accounts. You can get alerts if your bills increase too. And the smell's starting to show as a
color. They said it's like the jeans are changing color and wear the smell. I have yellow spots on
my underwear. Guys, this is all making a lot of sense. And that's why I check my credit score as
often as I can because I want to make sure that goes up and the stink goes down.
I didn't, I didn't mention this. It is devastating my credit score because I am
overdrafted to all get out. I didn't know the bank and they lowered my credit score because they
smelled it through the glass. Three people have gross balls and five million people use
rocket money to save over 500 million and cancel subscription. Save members up to 740 a year using
the app's premium features. Anyway, I think I guess I'll download this thing, whatever it's
called. Please do. Maybe it's called again. Well, cancel your own want to
Discretions reach your financial goes fast with rock and money by going to rock and money.com slash the yard. Okay. Yeah, go to rock and money.com slash the yard. I guess I'll go to rock and money.com slash the yard. Do you smell that? It smells like monster cheese cheese. Oh, I couldn't fit it. All right. We broke. We broke. We're, we're, we're ending the ad read. We're end right there. Go to rock and money.com slash the yard. We got phase banks. Left phase. Gone. Yeah. We got PBM. Left phase.
gone. Yep. We got Faye's temper.
Who knows how this shit's gonna shake out?
Who knows how this shit's gonna shake out? Who even
knows? Yeah. Raine? Bro, I have Faye's
fucking like two and a half years ago. He's not
a lot. Maybe more. Right? You got Jason.
He's tweeting out old Faye's new
phase. Nah, not even the same. Not the same, bro. You got Lacey?
You got Lacey?
I'm fucking sane, bro. You got Lacey like? I'm fucking sane, bro.
Why are you so scared, Lacey?
You got Lacey like this? He's like.
Okay. And then Archie bore that.
Honey, much as a month.
And then, no, it was a fucking factory meal.
Okay. And I think what's going to happen,
I think all the new head youngens,
they're going to leave and make their own org in this right moment.
I thought this.
Gaze.
They're going to start lit league, or they're going to start fucking,
they're going to start fucking lit live.
Lit league?
I thought you said lit league.
We're taking it to Rumble, boys.
We're going to Rumble.
And they're going to, no, they're going to stay on Twitch,
all that shit
but they're gonna
and they're gonna take
Pepsi fucking with them
and they're gonna go
and they're gonna start
their own fucking shit
and they're gonna be like
it's this is the new shit
bro
and then Banks is gonna be like
low key
I fucking put y'all on
this shit's fucking crazy
that you would go
no
thanks
I love your banks
would be like that
because banks
banks actually fucking put
Aiden on
but didn't even mind
when Aiden didn't join phase
he didn't
He didn't fucking mind
and he's got
Co-Tee's bro
Aiden fucking stayed at the cloud house
you can say
the cloud house as long as you want, bro.
Like, if you're part of Faze, that's fucking dope.
And I rock with that.
I rock with you.
I love when the phase guys are like,
bro, from back when we were in fucking New York,
I love when they should like,
say you like that.
It's like, what?
Okay.
So I was back when we were in fucking Rancho Cucamonga.
Back in a Rancho dog.
I was thinking, yes,
they probably will, like,
it's probably a good idea.
But if they fuck up the branding,
it could fail so bad.
The branding is everything.
I don't,
I don't know if they'll,
I don't know if they'll,
this guys the yard I don't we create the org that all the yo we pick them up we pick
them up and then we are the old head podcast yeah this is we're like fucking hector from optic
and we're like fucking who's the old head of phase and right yeah and like magic I can go to
more tournaments and then this is instead of phase up it's like yo yard up yeah I do like
yard up we get really big we get really big we're signing it's lacey it's jason but we
We still sign Magi.
Yeah, Maji still gets
Yeah, we sign Magi
That's our Spargo.
We need, we need
We need our famous Spargo.
We signed Magi before Ron.
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm course.
Ron, we're gonna put you at the top of the stack.
Yeah.
No, you'll be at the top of the stack.
If we have to reference the stack,
you've been the top of the stack.
But it's just not the right.
It's just that she beat.
It's just she beat Mango at Genesis.
Genesis is not the right time, you know?
Here's what matter.
Here's what you spawn, Ron, you're spawned Ron.
You've been let the spawn all game.
For your preys, here's what matters.
owns phase and I think right now apex owner it's in investment team no that is
planning on giving it to banks goldman if he pays like enough over time like I think
they've loaned him but he already left yeah he owns it he never left bro you're
talking multi-level plan oh you're talking he's he's already plotted the I bought phase
back he I'm saying like he never like he owns the bitch everyone says he left because
I don't think he's like doing as much day to day
Dude, in his video, he's like, I left Faze, like two weeks ago, everyone knows that.
He even said that recently, bro.
I don't think he left it, left it.
Don't look at your phone like the answers are there.
I can call.
Is this a legend?
I'll call Fitt.
No.
Call, did you call?
For real, for real, face, bangs.
You calling Faising.
Oh, fuck, it's Lacey.
Shit.
Yeah, no, no, no, no, hang up, hang up, hang up.
Shit, shit.
It's his feeding time.
He's really bad.
Dude, he actually lost a lot of fucking weight, and he looks good.
He does look great.
You look, I'm jealous.
He weighs less than you, bro.
All right, I'll say, look
Look at the horseback
This is Lacey?
Lacey, you know they got plants versus zombies
On the iPads at Olive Garden
Because we gotta be quiet for this
He does not fuck with this
Like he fucks with blood
It's crazy, man, you can just play by his versus zombies
The whole time you're at Olive Garn now
You wait for your crisper's and they're fucking
Go for B
You're nodding to like
Go for B
Go for B
the fuck is up
go for B
you reach
fucking phase
you reach the fucking
trillus voicemail
in the fucking east
you're chopped
it just plays
you're talking about me
you can't even get a phone
it is what it is
you can't even get a phone call back
it is what it's
oh oh oh okay
shut up now bro
yo what up
yo
yo I had a quick question
I'm on
I'm on my pod right now
I was just wondering
Who owns Faze right now?
Who owns Faze?
Yeah.
Like I forget how it works after it posts back.
It went private.
Game Square bought it,
took it private.
Or no,
Game Square is a public company.
Game Square bought the company.
And then myself and a couple partners
went and bought it back from Game Square.
And now at this point,
it's been distributed throughout the company.
Everybody at the company right now,
now, I believe owns shares, all the members own shares.
But members of, like, actual phase?
Yes.
Oh, okay.
Okay, so that makes sense.
So it's like y'all own it.
So it's back to y'all.
Well, y'all, y'all using y'all lightly there, I stepped away from phase recently,
and I'm kind of on my own shit right now.
Oh, you did it?
You gave up your ownership to?
Well, no, not necessarily.
It's a little bit more complicated than that.
It's like a one-day process, you know, I'm kind of figuring out.
what the next steps for my own personal life are right now but yeah what you're gonna do um yeah
aren't you phased till death i don't know this brother this whole thing's a fucking at this point for me
i feel like i'm i feel like i'm getting every possible sign a human being could get from the
universe to just like go a different way in my life i don't know i have a very toxic relationship
with this thing man very emotional for me um i did always feel like it was for life but
I find myself over and over and over in every rendition, this thing, in every era of phase, like, I'll put this before myself, before my sanity, before my health, like, and it's just like, I don't know.
And it always comes full circle and I always wind up feeling like unfulfilled or it's just, you know what I mean?
It's not, I don't have a professional relationship with phase.
It's a very personal, emotional relationship.
Like it's a family type of thing.
and it's just, it's toxic.
Yeah.
Yeah, man.
I don't know.
It's heavy.
It's heavy.
I'm on a whole new, like, fucking path in my life.
I've been sober.
I'm trying to be healthy.
And I'm just, like, trying to focus on shit that actually brings me joy.
And I find fucking fulfillment in, in purpose.
And it's just, I don't know necessarily this is it anymore.
My whole goal with phase, and it doesn't need to be like this grim fucking super sad thing.
My whole goal with phase in this new rendition of phase, this new,
this new chapter was to simply bring the brand back it just felt like shit the brand was dead
the life got sucked out of it um you know we got fucking we made a bunch of fucking horrible people
rich and we got left holding a bag and all got fucked over it just felt really bad and it would
have continued to feel bad for the rest of my life if you know i didn't at least try to like
do something with it you know and i think the new guys i think i probably passed the baton off
to the new guys and it's fucking cool again
and it belongs to them and that's another
that's a whole other thing I don't know if necessarily
you know my interests
and what I'm I'm into and who I am
aligns with this new
this new phase shit you know
but it's in a good spot now
where you could leave it and not feel bad about it
that's what I'm saying that's what I'm saying like I feel like
in a lot of ways my job is done
and honestly dude I thought it would take
a lot longer than it did to bring it back to where it's at
the plan was you know two three years
that's what I'm saying it was it was fast and I'm really really proud of the spot it's in and I
fucking I love the guys and they're killing it and I love what phase is right now but it's not
it's just not I'm not sure that it's for me anymore you know which is okay like that's fine
it's better than what it was yeah and I'm I'm gonna feel better about it than what I would
have felt about it you know what I mean if that makes sense that's that's a lot of
introspection.
Yeah.
I don't want to go through
the rest of my life
fucking
what if,
what I could
or shoulda.
So took a
stab it
bringing it back
and I think we did
a good job.
I think the job
is done.
I think that makes
sense.
All right.
Yeah,
I just wasn't sure
how it worked,
but that makes sense.
But it seems
like you've been
thinking about it a lot.
Yeah,
of course.
I mean,
this is my whole life,
right?
Yeah.
I'm not going to
fucking just die
and just
it's not,
and I'm not,
there's no disdain.
There's no,
like,
blood or anything, of course, I fucking, I'll always want this to do well
until when I'll always be the biggest fan, you know?
Yeah, you don't have to put your time into it like you used to.
That's what it is, man.
It's the ties, the 24-7 versus, like, focusing on other shit.
So it's 30 plus, though.
Yeah, we might as well be dead.
That's another thing.
That's another thing, you know, everybody fucking, why, why does everybody on Twitter hate old people?
Because it's not for the old anymore, all right?
We're supposed to be moved on to, I don't know what it will be, box news and golf rounds.
Do you have a kid?
I don't have a kid.
No, I don't have a kid yet.
Should we learn how to play golf?
If we both get kids, we can teach him to be golfers.
I would love my kid to rival yours.
I feel like I might have a kid somewhere.
I think you might have a kid somewhere, too.
Maybe.
All right, I'll let you go.
All right, brother.
Appreciate you.
Send me anytime.
Of course.
Peace.
First of all.
damn that was pretty moving
that was pretty touching that was introspectful
second of all we're on fear buck right now so everybody
hey the timeline what's up fear book
pussy third
my impression is pretty good
you're too
the whole time I'm talking
I'm just thinking about how good
your impression
it's pretty
so I was grappling with the idea of being in his 30s
and be like I just don't fucking get this shit anymore
I'm like welcome bro
welcome it sucks
doesn't it
Two people from Faye's ownership come on the pod
and just get really vulnerable about what it means to them.
You know what that is?
That's an L.S. bit.
You should bring those motherfuckers on L.S.
And talk.
And talk fucking business.
That's actually not a bad idea.
I know, right?
I was thinking that.
I was also thinking while Banks was saying all that,
word for word, all of that being said to somebody on a phone call,
but it's Aiden talking about lemonade sand 10 years from now.
Dude
I'm too old for this man
The new guys
They're great
It's like
And the new like Doug Doug shaped robot
Like he coded to replace him on the show
I don't bond with it
And it's like way
I don't get it
Because I'm bringing back HP
Which is what we used to do
And nowadays they're saying
HP's out
I like you always said
We made a bunch of horrible people rich
I think they're really interesting
They really did
Dude the more I learned about that story actually
Facts
Yeah
The story phase is crazy.
It is crazy.
It's still around.
Because I was thinking it is probably more popular now than it's ever been ever.
Yeah, definitely.
And I think the people who like the new phase, like Jason doing the new phase, old phase,
like the fans of the new phase don't give a shit for the most part about the old one.
And I think almost vice versa.
There's more overlap of old in the new.
But the old people who like old phase are like people holding on to like nostalgia of middle school and high school.
And also not consuming content like that.
No.
We have to ask ourselves, what does a brand, a legacy brand really give you?
And it's just for people who are passing by, I think, to be like, I remember that.
That's it.
And not necessarily even a nostalgic way.
I think about this a lot with Street Fighter.
Street Fighter could be a different game with different characters, same mechanics, same
everything, but it doesn't have Rio in it.
It's not.
Yeah.
I don't think it's just, like, I remember that.
I think it's like this thing that was important to me for a long time is still important.
and that makes me feel good.
It's not an evaporated era of my life
that I'll never even touch again.
It's like I still get to almost larp
as if I'm still kind of in that happy place of my life
when I was a kid and I was watching Call of Duty
and playing with my friends
and like people still care about this thing.
But is it so,
is it now such a different idea
where it's like you see Fais Lacey playing Minecraft with Marlin
and you're like, this isn't a trick shot?
Like where's the pressure point?
I think it's like when Kai goes live with Mafiathon
and it's just a sleepover with his friends.
Yeah.
It's like, kids are watching just like,
that's the coolest shit ever.
These guys are rich
and they're hanging out with their friends
just like I do.
I want to be like that.
Me and my friends should be lit like this.
Yes.
We should make a call of duty team.
We should trick shot.
Like, it's all the same bones.
It's just like more relatable
to more people now because it's IRL
instead of trapped inside of a single video game,
which is call it duty.
I think it's just bigger.
I mean, when Lacey makes a shot like that at the party,
that's just magic.
And you're like,
Maybe he wasn't clip farming.
Maybe he was just like that.
He's just fucking like that.
You got to wonder, maybe all of Adap's are first try.
Like, if they're really first trying to the parties in front of all those fucking witnesses,
like Adap's probably first trying that shit every time, man.
Dude, his, I see clips from his shit, his streams, which is, it's constantly just him
getting, like, scared of Legos or, like, thinking about animals.
Adap.
Yeah.
Or, like, he has this, like, wonder to him.
Or there was an Amber Alert on his phone, and he grabbed a motorcycle.
He's like, we got to do something.
He is a very
subtle clip farmer, I guess.
Have you seen the compilation of him
like being magic?
No.
Dude, I'll see if I can find it.
Keep going, but I'll send it to zipper.
Is it the hot dogs?
That's some of them, yeah.
Beacon of hot dogs.
I think you're talking about
the adept inventory spawns.
Began hot dogs, do you want to apologize to me?
Bro, we talked about this on the pod.
On the pod?
Yes.
I thought we did it on your stream only.
Oh, maybe.
It was just your stream.
I'm sorry, I guess.
Sorry for what?
It's like I wasn't even there for it, so does it count?
Sorry, I guess.
Do you remember on the primo when you said we're not even in the same conversation?
You said it was so much conviction.
Yeah, yeah, I just, you know, you're, it was the best of my era, you're the best of your era.
Like some people will think Jordan's a goat, some people think LeBron's a goat.
It's fine.
You're the Michael Jordan, I'm LeBron.
Yes, I was better than you.
A middle of the road.
Hot dog ateers.
I was the goat before you got to this.
And now the new era is different.
It's different
I'm not as into it anymore
Right
Because the game's just changed
The game has changed a lot
It's a very defensive game now
Right
Are we doing a hot dog
Run at Fast 50 or is it too dangerous
No it's not too dangerous
Another Ludwig event
Another tragedy
Okay
The hot dog
100 meter dash
Is not gonna be a tragedy
I think if
If someone eats a hot dog
And fucking dies
And chokes on camera
That's bad
It won't be me
Because it'll be in my
Wiener related tragedy
strikes mogul moves again this year at the Ludwig Fast 52 event we're gonna have medics on
site okay yeah and we're gonna we're gonna have trained professionals only
trained for like myself I knew this is the adapt pulling from his inventory moments
dude these actually are so good they kill me
Typical
And he spawns a hot dog that he starts heating
We'll be able to figure it out bro not bad at all
What are they building?
I like that safety first
I had like a piece of that
I want a spider man suit is so fucking bad if I get like a sign
Toby McGuire's my favorite Spider-Man no way
You know Lacey's piss
It's not his too
Dude
Leave the guy alone
He looks great man
We got shilling crazy
He's been fucking losing hell away
Yeah he's great man
What are the fuck am I
I'm fucking 35
Charles Barkley's doing fucking OZempic ads
Really? Yeah
Oh yeah on the subway bro
Charles Parkley's doing fucking OZempic ads
On the fucking Subway
Oh dude by the New York subway ads
Were fucking Ozempic and AI
It was crazy
Nick is, by the way, a pathetic, pathetic traveler.
Because we are on the fucking subway.
Did he get sick on the trip?
First off, he's never ridden the subway.
So he's real nervous to ride it.
They're really scared.
Real nervous to ride it.
It wasn't nervous.
Because he didn't know what direction it went and trains and outworked.
Yeah, and when Ludwig pilots the fucking ship, we go the wrong way.
And you know how he does it with confidence.
And you know how it works with Nick.
All right, we land in New York.
He's like, I got a bagel spot.
It's 7.3 miles away and open from 1130 to 11.
45. So disingenuous. Can we go? Oh, my God. It's crazy also to have been to New York a lot and never have taken the subway. I'm just saying. And so anyway, I thought you needed a card. I'm forcing Nick to. You don't. Use your Apple Pay. I didn't use Apple Pay now. I just Apple Pay tap and it's one way he goes as long as you want. So we're using the subway to go basically everywhere. And we hop on the subway and we're going to some bagels pot or coffee spot. And, uh, and I'm, I'm doing hello Chinese. Which is. And I'm, I'm doing. And I'm,
the part of the story we're talking about.
Which is the Duolingo equivalent.
Why aren't you using Duolingo?
Because Duolingo is chopped at Mandarin.
It's chopped in general, but it's also just like
another step worse at Mandarin.
And Hello Chinese is really good at it's all it does.
Okay.
They don't fucking throw in Japanese there too.
Sure, sure.
So I'm doing my Hello Chinese.
Uh, wu, shi,
mm-hmm, sure.
Ingo.
No, no, sure.
Sure.
No, say to the back
Sure
Oh my god
Let big brother teach you
Sure
Sure
So anyway I'm doing that
And then I look around
And Nick's the Navigator
He's got everything
Fucking about his phone
And he's guided
I'm just doing I'm doing
Sure
You're learning
I'm learning
And I look and I go
Oh shit
That's the stop
Because I just saw it on his phone
So I run off the train
And Nick's like
No are you sure
Let me check
And he pulls it up
And the fucking doors
close
between us
while I'm outside
and he's inside
you trapped him on the train
and then he fucking
flies away
and then everybody on the train
laughs at him
it's true
they all fucking laugh at him
because he was doing this
at the end too
he went
a little girl
a little girl sitting across
he was sitting across
the whole ride
and goes mom what happened
why are they laughing at him
oh my god
and she's like his friend
his friend got off
and I went
he got off at the wrong stop
I just lied
he's at
actually a pussy. I was like, you off the wrong stop. I'm like laughing. I'm like,
a idiot, got him.
And I had to walk from the next station.
I think in that moment, there's a clear difference between you and I,
where if Ludwig darts off of a train, no matter what,
I will, I will follow that.
Nick didn't trust me. No, no, no, no. It's not true.
So, so what, God damn it. So first of all,
first of all, the bagel thing, I was like,
I want to go out of my way to go to light. I'm not going to ask a local.
Last few times I've been here, I've asked a local.
I've been pissed off at what I got
I'm like New York sucks at bagels
New York sucks of bagels
So this time I'm gonna do my own research
I'm usually pretty good at picking
Like spots like this
So I'm gonna do my own research
And I picked like a very like popular spot
And it was a little further
I'm like are you down to go out of our way
To like maybe see if this is I've been
You know delusioned this whole time
That's why I was so far
That's also not where we were going in this story
Also it sucked but
It was made it was made it was made it was good
It was a good bagel
He's hard to please
He's he can't make him come
He just wants to be defensive.
Shout out Bell's Begles, L.A.
It's just clobbered.
I think it's also a New York Bable place, though, but it's here.
Anyway, we're on the thing.
And Ludwig makes a comment, it's two more stops.
And I'm like, okay.
In my brain, two more stops.
And then it was the next stop.
And he goes, oh, this is it.
But I'm computing something he said because he's doing the Chinese thing.
I'm like, did he forget that he said that?
And I'm like, oh, let me just, like, make sure.
And I'm accustomed to, like, the door speed of, like,
fucking Japan. Like you've got some time
You know, it's not like
In New York
Ludwig walks up to the door
Almost immediately he bolts to the door
And the door just closes on him
But then it immediately reopens
The door does that a lot
In subways in New York
I don't know what it is. He goes like
So it's doing like this Mr. Beast
kind of level trap on him
He walks up and goes oh
And then it reopens and it goes out
And then it closes again
I just think it's gonna reopen
And then it just
We both think it's gonna reopen
And then it just doesn't
And then it just floats away
And it just floats away
So
Yes, it was a lack of trust
But also, you know, the same trip
Ludwig goes, this is our fucking train
I'm like, are you sure? He's like, yeah. It's just going the
opposite direction. We get on, the only reason we found out
A fucking fan is on the train and goes,
Ludwig, you're Ludwig, right? He's like, yeah.
And he's like, hey, by the way, where's this train go?
And the guy's like, oh, you're going the opposite direction.
We're on Brooklyn. I was like, oh, fuck. You punch him in the stomach?
And I was just like, dude, we wouldn't even have known unless the fan was there.
You got to punch on the stomach of run of fans.
Can't keep letting him get away.
There was one fan who definitely did not know my name.
He knew, he recognized me, but didn't know my name and didn't want to admit it.
Oh, no.
One guy called me Stans.
Yeah, we got a whole conversation up, and he goes, dude, fucking Ludwig, stands.
I am the biggest unpaid intern fan.
And you know, you know us were like, got me guilty stance.
He's like, I love unpaid intern.
It's me, stands.
Ooh, I got to meet up with an 11-year-old.
He's stupid years.
I love unpaid interns.
I'm like, you can't say that.
What do you mean?
You can't say that.
I'm not saying about Stans.
I'm saying, if someone mistakes me for Stans,
I'm allowed to say I have a date with an 11-year-old really fast.
If someone mistakes him for Stakes.
You can't say 11-11.
That is fine.
That is fine if you do to that one person,
but you can't do it when it happened to Nick pretending you're in his shoes.
What you're talking about?
I'm pretending.
It's a hypothetical situation where we're making jokes.
He's got a kid on the way.
He doesn't.
have a kid on the way.
You don't even think about what he's gonna fucking do his fucking career, bro,
what his fucking legacy.
It's just fucking like a fucking kid on the way, bro.
The Stan show could go down if I say some shit like that.
You got a fucking wife, so put some fucking respect on his dad, though.
It's actually hell of disrespectful.
That is hell of disrespectful, and you know what, stands?
I'm fucking sorry, bro.
I got you, bro.
I'm the banks of this situation.
I do think when you have a kid, sometimes you have to make less jokes about your friends.
You got to make less jokes, bro.
Anyway, I would do that.
The guy walked up, a guy walked past this subway.
And he walked pastes, and then he screamed.
He went, I'll do an impression.
Woo!
And I was like, I turn around, and it's just a guy who recognized Ludwig.
Oh.
And I was just like, dude, what the, what's the scream about?
Have you ever had a screamer before?
Does it, fuck, do you think about it?
Huh?
Like, when we went to Supernova and you had people waiting for four hours to talk to you,
do you ever think, like, this is kind of weird?
Tell him about the guy in Joe's pizza.
Oh, my God.
A Joe's pizza?
Yeah, it was Joe's at 4 a.
Oh, dude.
Yeah, there was this guy at Joe's pizza because Nick's fat ass was like...
Oh my god, you terrorist!
You're fucking fat bitch.
Dude, dude, fuck you for this.
No, like, Tom, catch.
Dude, we fucking were walking back for, no, we got out of Uber and we're like,
you guys want to get pizza?
I'm down for pizza.
Yeah, pizza sounds great right now.
We go to a pizza place at fucking 2 a.m.
I get three slices.
Him and shake both get two each.
Three?
They call it the bad guy ever.
They call that fat guy ever.
And I'm like, I don't know, I'll put one in the fridge if I don't want.
Nick goes, but do, babo, bum, bum, bum.
When we get back to the hotel, we get back to the hotel, I'm not, but halfway through my second slice, and Lug goes, can I have your third?
Okay.
He's had two.
Okay.
You're a fucking oaf.
You're a big fat guy.
That's crazy.
Hey, that's not your dents.
He said he was going to put it in the fridge, and I was like, it won't be as good.
Might as well enjoy it fresh.
And here's a one of those crazy thing.
So you have to follow the sword.
One of the fucking crazy thing?
Yeah.
I had a fourth.
No.
Yeah, he had shake.
You're gonna eat that bit.
You're nasty, stinky girl.
And these are big fucking new pie slices, bro.
Cause shake fucking drizzle did not finish his.
Dude, you are a little nasty guy.
Yeah, I got fucking big, bro.
And I won 10K from Jason the wean on the court.
Dude, I'm not kidding.
Ludwig maybe watched him play Jason in basketball on his phone on this trip like five times.
Oh, wow.
Come off it.
Dude, made you watch it.
Back off of it.
Fuck off of it.
Come off it, dad.
Come off it.
We're the fucking Uber.
My fucking beat Jason, I dig!
Archie, join him, man.
Fair and square.
That's two hours per city, bro.
We're in the Uber, and I was just watching the fucking clips back, all right?
Fast forwarding to the Jason's parts, watching his in real time.
Yeah, I'm trying to vaude review, bro.
Oh, it's wet from free!
It was abysmal.
Aiden, I am a more successful basketball player than you'll ever be.
I've won $10,000.
By earnings, yeah.
Real fucking story.
By earnings.
That's some respect.
And I respect you to put my in.
By the way, I'm also the 76 highest earning chess
player of all time.
Is that true?
Yes, it is fucking true.
I just say, by the way, Ludwig, I haven't watched you play basketball in a while,
but I know you guys, you have your little thing, you play back.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
You can't dribble with your left hand.
It's not crazy.
You play so much basketball.
Can't play on player too.
Just grind it.
It's just really hard.
Just grind it.
You don't try.
No, yes, you're right.
I don't practice.
I show up to Sunday and I play.
That's crazy to me.
You don't have the opportunity to practice your left hand of those games.
I mean, I guess you could, but you just fucking turn it over it a hundred times.
It looked like Atrioc.
So it's like, I'm, I'm there.
Yeah, we're a teacher that says,
I'm neurodivergent and I'm practicing left-hand handles.
It basically, it's like melee, right?
It's like I show up and I want to play friendlies.
I don't care about grinding my fucking tech skill.
No, it's more like you show up and only you play tournament matches.
Yeah, no, no, they're friendly.
These are friendly.
Friendlies are where you.
These are friendly.
I actually understand a lot.
I've just learned a lot about.
I promise you what matches are friends.
Well, wait, what happened in Joe's Pizza?
Well, at Joe's Pizza, we're in the fucking line.
And then this guy's like, oh shit, Ludwig.
And I'm like, what's up, dude?
And he's talking to me a bit.
And he's like, dude, Marlins in town.
Yo.
No, no, you said, are you from New York?
Well, then that's what he says first.
He says, Marlins' town.
I go, okay, cool.
I go, you from here?
He's like, no, I'm from Florida.
I'm like, oh, you're on vacation?
It's like, yeah, I pulled up because Marlins in town.
And I'm like, you came here just because Marlins in town?
He's like, no, it's some other shit.
But I saw Marlins in town.
What the fuck is going up here?
Are you just, fuck it?
I think he was too embarrassed to twice admit that he was, he came here because the streamer's here.
I think he did as, but he showed up and to run into them.
That is pretty embarrassed.
I would also be embarrassed.
But then he ran into Ludwig.
And then look what happened.
Do you think to a guy who's here from Marlon, that's a W.
That is a, absolutely not.
Because I think his goal is not to meet Marlin off camp.
I think his goal is to meet Marlon on stream.
So Ludwig off stream is way worse.
Oh, that's just, yeah, it's way.
If you fail your Marlin mission and you succeed at your off camp Ludwig mission,
Dude, there's a sick clip of when we played me and Jason basketball for 10K.
Someone pulls, they definitely stream tonight.
They pull up to the park.
And they go, you know, Jason, can I get a pick?
And Jason does the thing where they take a pick on the stream.
Yeah.
And then I go, do you want to pick?
And he starts walking over.
And then John, Jason Cameron, goes, who is it?
What's the name, by the way?
And he goes, I don't really watch streams like that.
Oh, my God, bro.
It's so fun.
So I was playing the day that they went and played.
Ludwig asked to take my car and he said he said in because you got a four door we'll be
because I got a four door car and he's like we'll be back in 25 minutes back and I'm like okay
okay that's good as long as you're back in like as long as you're back in an hour because I want
to go play basketball like I'm going to go play tonight and I'm watching the stream I'm like
we're we're at the 20 minute mark they're not even done with the first game this does not
seem to be on pace and I uber there to meet them and and get my stuff out of my car and go play
I'm with a bunch of people playing pickup on the opposite court while they're playing one v1 still
which their last game their your first two games were we're fine they like took like 15 20 minutes
each right you're the last game last I'm not kidding maybe an hour they take four breaks
during the last game of one v1 basketball there's a point where it's two two and you fast
Ford, like 30 minutes in the Vod
and it's 2-2 and we're sitting down.
Dude, it's like me versus a 6th grader.
It is exactly like you were a 6th grader.
It was the guy who couldn't hit from 3 but could
drive and Jason was the guy who only
hits from 3 and can't drive. At that point we were the guys
who couldn't do anything. Yeah, it wasn't
going either way and there's a few
people like nobody
people have been watching this and they're
like they're hyped that it's playing out for 10K
but a lot of them like don't really know who either of them
are and as more and more people show
some people actually start to recognize them but they only recognize Jason it's like dude that's
Jason that's Jason the we that's Jason and they're all not a single person in the pickup game
there's a couple there's who Ludwig was dude is that the rebel athlete I've seen him in videos and
shit and then there's and then there's one there was one kid he was in high school and he had shown up
because he lived in the neighborhood and because he recognized a Ludwig instead on the stream
that's my shooter played pickup with us for like two hours he had a good time
Was he nice?
Yeah, he was pretty good, dude.
I just had a brain blast.
Oh, my God.
Imagine Ludwig was 22 today in 2025.
And he wanted to be a streamer.
What would he be like?
Because he would have to conform to the meta of, you know, the biggest streamer.
Oh, bro, I'd be a Jason viewer, right?
He'd be wearing a shooting sleeve on stream.
Oh, my God, bro.
He'd be so crazy.
Dude, the 22-year-old.
I'd be marching by the beat of my own drum.
Don't you think you'd be IRL streaming more?
no dude I don't know man because you would have grown up
it's just imagining the Ludwig we know but 10 years younger
and then like trying to be a streamer it's he'd have a do right on
Jason would be fucking best friends I think no
they'd be locked in like twin no Jason would fuck with him no Jason would not
fuck with him why would he not he fucks me now you're not involved
love it would be one of those uh he fucks me now would be one of those camera guys that
follows him around they stand like it
Dude, Ludwig, yeah, Ludwig would be a camera guy turned streamer
That would be his path
For some reason I think you think that if I was 22 now
My interests would change
Yes, because you would have grown up in a different generation
You'd be different
In 10 years
You'd be different
No, I would still love Japan
No, you're on China now
Well, now I'm on China
I kept saying Ludwig loves Japan
He goes, no, no, no, I'm on China now
I'm on China now
You're such a bitch, bro
But I will say, Jason fucks with you ironically, bro.
No, he does it.
You are 30.
It's crazy to fuck with you.
No, he's W. Unk.
I don't think he's ironic.
I'm W. Unk, for real.
I think he looks to him for fucking guidance, bro.
I think that's for real.
We're fucking peers in the fucking battlegrounds of streams, bro.
I just bidders around.
Are you guys?
Have you seen the clip?
This is at Master Baker when he explains what our Patreon does to Jason.
And Jason's like, dude, no.
fucking away. He's like, wait a minute. What's a website?
No, that's this ingenuous. But my question to you,
Jubbin, was the last time you gave Jason advice?
Was the last time I give Jason advice? I don't really give Jason advice like that.
I mean, he has to figure his shit out. I feel like advice isn't really...
He's never asked for advice?
Maybe we recorded a show he's doing. I don't think I can leak it,
but just like on some of the formatting of it.
Did you like it? Did you like it? Did you like it, Woodwood?
He doesn't talk like that
Offstream
Come on
Yes
Offstream he does not say
Did you white gate wide wig
Yes he's still fucking
He still talks like the same way he talks
Well guy
