                                         This is what they call yards in North Carolina.

                                         Just concrete buildings.
                                         
                                         In the middle of a giant warehouse.
                                         
                                         Yeah, this place is crazy.

                                         that aren't SoCal.

                                         yeah physically or like spiritually
                                         
    
                                         it's it's a Disneyland situation where
                                         
                                         anybody who like falls into
                                         
                                         cardiac arrest gets removed from the
                                         
                                         facility before they're declared dead.
                                         
                                         We'll do it.
                                         
                                         We'll do it.
                                         
                                         So no one has actually died in the Mr. Beast facility.
                                         
                                         If someone dies, we just restart.
                                         
    
                                         We'll do it like the queen.
                                         
                                         Even if they die, we'll just pretend they're alive
                                         
                                         and have a hologram.
                                         
                                         Because the queen is dead.
                                         
                                         Ooh, hologram babies.
                                         
                                         Carl's like, I think he's dead.
                                         
                                         It's the big white letters.
                                         
                                         I like the idea of Mickey Mouse dragging a corpse
                                         
    
                                         across a parking lot and then looking up at a camera. Except it's the Mr. of Mickey Mouse dragging a corpse across a parking lot and then like looking up at a camera.
                                         
                                         Except it's the Mr. Beast Mickey Mouse.

                                         youtubers i just didn't make the cut yeah so it's like like i had to focus on like the big names you know
                                         
                                         the wendovers of the world all i'm saying is well actually i can't say anything because
                                         
                                         i got you the video you came down where i didn't upload yeah what the fuck's up with that dude
                                         
                                         yeah i flew down i came in a video i was was on a private jet. And then we did a video. It cost like 800K and you scrapped the whole thing.
                                         
                                         Yeah, the video was shit.
                                         
    
                                         The video was pretty terrible.
                                         
                                         Was it actually?
                                         
                                         Like explain what the thought process was.
                                         
                                         Do you have no sunk cost in your mind at all?
                                         
                                         Like I feel like it's hard to ignore that.
                                         
                                         Yeah, of course.
                                         
                                         But at the end of the day, what matters is that you make the best videos possible.
                                         
                                         Oh, absolutely.
                                         
    
                                         Like we're not trying to make money.
                                         
                                         We're just trying to make the best videos.
                                         
                                         So for me, it's pretty easy because I thought the video was horseshit um you saw it like there
                                         
                                         are a lot of things that went wrong like the cannon didn't work yeah the the sink is a little
                                         
                                         weird as well that was very weird we had like uh we got i was pitched right we got the biggest
                                         
                                         japanese man ever in history there's never been a larger man that i was pitched right that itself
                                         
                                         is a video the two contestants are going to run up to him,
                                         
                                         and he's just like with one hand just going to be holding him back.
                                         
    
                                         He's so large and just going to just pummel these guys.
                                         
                                         Can you imagine like a cartoon where he's doing this,
                                         
                                         and the guy's like running?
                                         
                                         Yeah, exactly.
                                         
                                         That's when I was pitched, and I just took him at their word.
                                         
                                         Usually I push further.
                                         
                                         I'm like, okay, show me pictures.

                                         He's going to be the biggest Japanese man.
                                         
                                         He's the largest Japanese man to ever live.
                                         
                                         I was like, okay, he's got to be pretty huge.
                                         
                                         And he was.
                                         
                                         Turns out they eat pretty good over there.
                                         
                                         He was 250 pounds.
                                         
    
                                         It's the day of, and the challenge is going quick,
                                         
                                         and it's like a race, and I get ahead of the contestants.

                                         And then he just wasn't responding, and I just kept talking to him and then someone yelled he doesn't speak english i was like oh okay their

                                         In the Japanese guy's defense, he just had no idea what was going on.
                                         
                                         It was a very weird video. And he was confused.
                                         
                                         And I don't know.

                                         And he thought they were supposed to like bow and do a normal fight.
                                         
                                         And they just ran up and grabbed the coordinates out of his fucking.

                                         Well, I kind of told my editor, I was like, this isn't getting uploaded,
                                         
                                         but I kind of just want to see what it looks like.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I don't hate you.
                                         
                                         Wait, is there like a hard drive of never uploaded MrBeast videos?
                                         
                                         Yeah, we have quite a few.
                                         
                                         Okay, okay.
                                         
                                         Can I have it?
                                         
                                         Green screens himself in front of it. He's like, look me i'm ludwig check it out i'll upload that video on your channel yeah yeah we absolutely can
                                         
                                         well you know like it's it's i guess it's cross promotion so we'll figure out like a pay system
                                         
    
                                         but like obviously i love that you're only in like five percent of the video too i know if we do you
                                         
                                         can't give any context.
                                         
                                         So I can't like react to it?
                                         
                                         I just have to upload it randomly raw? You can't like come at the start and go like,
                                         
                                         all right, this is a video.

                                         I uploaded a 30 minute video video of YouTuber Fight Tier List,
                                         
                                         and you weren't even in it.

                                         if that just immediately became your most-watched video.
                                         
    
                                         I would actually kill myself.

                                         And I'll have your face as my thumbnail.
                                         
                                         No, you should rebrand your channel to MrBean.
                                         
    
                                         He dubs every voice in the video.
                                         
                                         MrBean.
                                         
                                         He dubs every voice in the video.
                                         
                                         It's MrBean and I just have a quirky voice over to me.
                                         
                                         It's MrBean and then it's a Photoshop of Jimmy's eyes, but they're kind of like a little far
                                         
                                         apart, like just slightly Photoshopped.
                                         
                                         The profile picture is the exact same.
                                         
                                         It's just MrBean instead of Mr. Beast.
                                         
    
                                         He uploads the video, no contact,
                                         
                                         and then goes dark for like three days.
                                         
                                         Michael, sir, we have a deal.

                                         you just throw it up on his channel?
                                         
                                         Yes.
                                         
                                         He would love that.
                                         
                                         Yeah, we can.
                                         
                                         Although I think it would be depressing
                                         
                                         if there was a universe where it's like my most
                                         
                                         videos and it's like three MrBeast videos
                                         
    
                                         and then every time I do a normal upload it's like MrBeast fans
                                         
                                         being like, well, I don't really
                                         
                                         want to watch this.
                                         
                                         Who's this guy?
                                         
                                         It's cool that you play GeoGuessr, but where's the MrBeast, I guess?
                                         
                                         Oh, I might dig through the
                                         
                                         files. We might be able to find a few.
                                         
                                         We should make it like a once a quarter
                                         
    
                                         type beat.
                                         
                                         What's Ludwig going to steal from mr racist quarter you should do those random creators just like randomly upload on and then your dream should be having the largest upload on like 10 different
                                         
                                         creators channels yeah it's like power it's a marketing exercise yeah essentially it's more
                                         
                                         funnier with you because you were in the video yeah that's that's so it makes a little more
                                         
                                         sense yeah it does make a little more sense.
                                         
                                         Can I ask you a question?
                                         
                                         Why do you like Ludwig so much?

                                         Ah, okay.

                                         He came to the conclusion that we're going to upload it on Ludwig's channel.
                                         
                                         He's not happy about it.

                                         I didn't even get my sandals.
                                         
                                         Yeah, well, why'd you show them all the money?
                                         
                                         Because I had to pull out my wallet.
                                         
                                         I was scared.

                                         I would have just done the, like,
                                         
    
                                         tried to pull the bill out of the wallet
                                         
                                         while it's still in the pocket.
                                         
                                         I'm just like, yeah, hold on.
                                         
                                         You went to a Walmart and gave a random guy 10K
                                         
                                         for a YouTube short.

                                         It's like we're just trying to help people.
                                         
                                         We're trying to see which ones are safe or not.
                                         
                                         We were doing it good-spirited.
                                         
                                         We just want to make the world a better place, I guess.
                                         
                                         And if I'm a villain for that, then okay.
                                         
                                         It's one of those ones where we're like,
                                         
    
                                         a friend died, but it sounds logical.
                                         
                                         It would be hype. At the very least logical it would be hype at the very least
                                         
                                         it would be hype
                                         
                                         the only guy who was hype
                                         
                                         he got robbed

                                         because if you're not ready
                                         
                                         to die for your art

                                         but she doesn't really know
                                         
                                         what I do
                                         
    
                                         because she's from France.
                                         
                                         She's like foreign.
                                         
                                         She doesn't really watch YouTube.
                                         
                                         Tell her to watch my French channel.
                                         
                                         Okay.

                                         That's cool, Jimmy.
                                         
                                         Hold on.
                                         
    
                                         Hold on.
                                         
                                         That's really cool.
                                         
                                         So he answers your texts and your calls.
                                         
                                         How fast would you say, on average, he answers your texts?
                                         
                                         I honestly don't think
                                         
                                         there's ever been a time
                                         
                                         I've called him
                                         
                                         and he didn't answer.
                                         
    
                                         Really?
                                         
                                         That's super interesting.
                                         
                                         It's actually cool.
                                         
                                         It's actually helpful
                                         
                                         what you're saying.
                                         
                                         He told us recently,
                                         
                                         no, you know what?
                                         
                                         You text me all the time.
                                         
    
                                         I don't read my text.
                                         
                                         If you call,
                                         
                                         I will answer.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's a good thing.
                                         
                                         And I was like,
                                         
                                         oh, that's perfect.
                                         
                                         So I've called him
                                         
                                         three times the past few weeks.
                                         
    
                                         He's not answered once.
                                         
                                         He actually hasn't even called back.
                                         
                                         Oh, wow. Isn't that crazy? By him three times the past few weeks. He's not answered once. He actually hasn't even called back. Oh, wow.
                                         
                                         Isn't that crazy?
                                         
                                         By the way, Ludwig stayed in my studio apartment once and cummed in his pants while he stayed
                                         
                                         in his room.
                                         
                                         That's so unnecessary in terms of information.
                                         
                                         And so maybe there's a bond that we share.
                                         
    
                                         It's such an unnecessary amount of information.
                                         
                                         Why is it?
                                         
                                         What's unnecessary about it?
                                         
                                         We don't share the bond.
                                         
                                         Oh, do we not share a bond like we came up together?
                                         
                                         If you shared the bond, that means you helped him cum.
                                         
                                         Maybe I did, Jimmy.
                                         
                                         I helped him cum.
                                         
    
                                         There you go. together if you shared the bond that means you helped him maybe i did help him come all i'm saying is that you know when when ludwig starts to go up the ladder you don't have time

                                         Yeah, I've given up on rock climbing.

                                         All I'm saying is that we,
                                         
                                         we have struggled constantly with Ludwig,

                                         Honestly,
                                         
                                         you should just throw a mutiny then.
                                         
                                         Kick him off the podcast.
                                         
                                         He says,

                                         but he doesn't say it to us.
                                         
                                         Mr. Beast is someone who does that all the time.
                                         
    
                                         You do that a lot, Jimmy.

                                         I'm like, oh.

                                         it just means nothing?

                                         And I was like, well, I don't want to do that.
                                         
                                         And then they're like, oh, well, you're just going to be stressed.

                                         we had a video where we were,
                                         
    
                                         well,
                                         
                                         room kind of like that.
                                         
                                         Like the one where we put a guy in a room and said every day he stayed there. Yeah.
                                         
                                         $10,000.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         That was good.
                                         
                                         But so it was,
                                         
    
                                         uh,
                                         
                                         it was supposed to be an astronaut.
                                         
                                         We were going to help him train for astronaut school or whatever to be an astronaut.
                                         
                                         So like that was the premise of the video.
                                         
                                         That's why it was themed.
                                         
                                         It was astronaut.
                                         
                                         I was like, yeah. Yeah. And so that's like, astronaut so like that was the premise of the video that's why it was themed it was astronaut leg and so like you know he's gonna spend months in space so like he might
                                         
                                         as well practice here and then we're like but before the video you know quarantine for two
                                         
    
                                         weeks don't don't do anything because like if you get covid that would you know obviously you can't
                                         
                                         compete in this so like two weeks leading up we're like quarantine and he you know he's like yeah i'm
                                         
                                         quarantined i haven't left my house i've done nothing i don't nothing nothing and then he shows
                                         
                                         up right before about the film and test positive oh my god but obviously he didn't come here he
                                         
                                         would test them off site we're not stupid so um then i was just like oh well and i just looked
                                         
                                         at my editor i was like are you free and he's just like yeah i was like get in there honestly editors have been in the fucking chamber yeah for for days yeah and so i think part that's
                                         
                                         partly what helped the videos because he like he kind of knew like what the video would look like
                                         
                                         and his mic is obviously i let him edit the video oh yeah so he just like filmed things and basically
                                         
    
                                         like filmed the clips he wanted in the order and and so i think i don't know that's crazy yeah exactly and then you know he's like he wanted to propose to his
                                         
                                         girlfriend which he did at the end of the video i'm like damn you really want to make this the
                                         
                                         best video possible oh that that makes that makes it so so much more like it just all makes so much
                                         
                                         more sense obviously the proposal was scripted i'm like bro i didn't even know until like 10
                                         
                                         hours before we filmed he was doing it what do you want what about the guitar that was contentious yeah i i told him honestly
                                         
                                         afterwards i was like i wish you didn't smash that guitar because now people are gonna think
                                         
                                         it's fake but i've no obviously we didn't tell him i didn't want to lose 100 grand for no reason
                                         
                                         i actually was genuinely mad when he did because i was like it's just too convenient at the end of
                                         
    
                                         the video he just smashes the guitar yeah after having literally witnessed you throw away in a well not throw away you've given it to a charitable cause

                                         which is what we would use to describe.
                                         
                                         It was the most amount of money we could fathom losing at the time.
                                         
                                         And so we'd always describe the amount we lost as Paul percent.
                                         
                                         So someone in the comments has figured out Paul percent to Allen units.
                                         
                                         Paul percent to Allen units.
                                         
                                         That's what the British use.
                                         
                                         So it's like Celsius Fahrenheit.
                                         
                                         You should be like, I lost five Pauls
                                         
    
                                         And he's like
                                         
                                         Really 2.3 hours
                                         
                                         It's like American Psycho
                                         
                                         Paul
                                         
                                         That's where it came from
                                         
                                         That's really special
                                         
                                         You do lose a lot of money
                                         
                                         On videos
                                         
    
                                         I saw a YouTube short
                                         
                                         That explained exactly

                                         You don't have to

                                         To make
                                         
                                         It ended up being 4.2 million 4.2 million dollars to make squid game yeah 4 million 250 000 yeah
                                         
                                         that you made 1.5 million ad revenue 2 million dollars from your sponsor for it and then like
                                         
                                         700k for merch aka you made 4.2 million so then you would have gone even true or false uh that
                                         
                                         video well so also that's not including the employees and like

                                         people here though i mean the video definitely lost money if you factor everything in there's
                                         
                                         just no world but that's where you know you just kind of like do some videos that make a little
                                         
                                         bit money leading up to it or well in that case afterwards because that was supposed to be a two
                                         
                                         million dollar video which was crazy for us we're like we're gonna go fucking
                                         
                                         balls to the wall where i spent two million on it and then you know you spend 1.5 and you're like oh
                                         
                                         shit we this is gonna be a three million dollar and now it's a four million and it just like it
                                         
                                         keeps going up and then you're like oh shit cj is how much and like oh shit that's how much and then
                                         
                                         you know there was one day we were you know we gave all the contestants two thousand
                                         
    
                                         dollars as well which was like a million dollars and that like because you know they were all super
                                         
                                         chill and i was like oh well yeah you know i have chill people in my life too
                                         
                                         and so that's like every video usually starts off relatively break even and then they just like
                                         
                                         what am i gonna do when i'm like when we're 1.5 in and we're like oh well this thing costs more
                                         
                                         to build and they this fucking lights aren't good enough and i'm not gonna be like okay we'll just

                                         that far and have bad okay whatever we already put two go to three and then we're like oh well
                                         
                                         we already did three let's go to four i mean the answer is never just make the video shit yeah no yeah we could have you know

                                         so apparently
                                         
                                         I freaked out
                                         
                                         because I was gonna
                                         
                                         think I'm cheating
                                         
                                         tell us about
                                         
                                         your weird poop
                                         
    
                                         but apparently
                                         
                                         when your body
                                         
                                         because I still
                                         
                                         it burns the body fat
                                         
                                         to survive
                                         
                                         which still generates
                                         
                                         waste just at a slower rate
                                         
                                         so that was the answer
                                         
    
                                         was it like dark matter
                                         
                                         what did it look like?
                                         
                                         It just looked like a little fetus.
                                         
                                         Oh, really?
                                         
                                         It was weird colors.
                                         
                                         It was like, it wasn't a normal poop.
                                         
                                         It was like, bleh, bleh.
                                         
                                         Did that shake you?
                                         
    
                                         Wait, what colors?
                                         
                                         Like the Activision logo?
                                         
                                         I never saw the logo.
                                         
                                         Okay.
                                         
                                         You seem pretty unshakable, I feel like.
                                         
                                         That was a pretty rough.
                                         
                                         It was because I filmed Chocolate Factory during it. So all during Chocolate Factory, I was on no food. I was dying. Okay. See, you seem pretty unshakable. I feel like that was a pretty rough. It is. Cause I filmed chocolate factory during it.
                                         
                                         So all during chocolate factory,
                                         
    
                                         I was on no food.
                                         
                                         I was dying.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         So that video could have been much better.
                                         
                                         A lot of people regret that a bit.
                                         
                                         Uh,
                                         
                                         yeah.
                                         
                                         Cause the video could have been much better.
                                         
    
                                         I was like,
                                         
                                         after every shot I had to like,
                                         
                                         I would a little,
                                         
                                         just lay.

                                         I just lay on the ground.

                                         man.

                                         and it looked so good.
                                         
    
                                         Passing Gordon Ramsey
                                         
                                         and breaking on Zaxby's later.
                                         
                                         He was like,
                                         
                                         really pushing. He's like, you should, you should try it.
                                         
                                         I just cooked this for you. And I was like, you know, in that moment,
                                         
                                         I was just like, fuck it. And I took a bite.
                                         
                                         But the problem is after you eat for don't eat food for weeks,
                                         
                                         you can't eat real food. You have to like, it's public.
                                         
    
                                         You have to slowly work. So I took a bite and then I spit it out,
                                         
                                         but then I lost.
                                         
                                         So I had to spit it out because you know, you just that would shock your system that's how like
                                         
                                         did you get a newborn baby sense of taste uh let me think so the not really that it just kind of
                                         
                                         opened my eyes like whenever like if people are eating donuts and i'm like really hungry

                                         I had to fly, and the flight attendant was like,
                                         
                                         I knew she was going to ask.
                                         
                                         I was recording on my phone.
                                         
                                         She's like, do you want peanuts?
                                         
                                         And I was like, no.
                                         
                                         But this is like two weeks without food.
                                         
                                         I was like, this is going to be the funniest thing ever. She's going to ask me for peanuts, and I have to say no. weeks without food i was like this is gonna be the funniest

                                         it's just a normal human interaction because like half the people on the plane are just saying no
                                         
                                         anyway did gordon ramsey call you uh not me i don't think he said that word i don't think he

                                         No, I mean, like, I had to cut a lot of swearing out.
                                         
                                         I mean, he goes pretty hard.
                                         
                                         Really?
                                         
    
                                         But it's like, it's the right amount.

                                         and I've been to his house before,
                                         
                                         and it's like a normal house,
                                         
    
                                         but I go in,
                                         
                                         and there's a fucking squat rack in his kitchen
                                         
                                         with a bench on it and weights,
                                         
                                         and he's like,
                                         
                                         yeah, I've been working out.
                                         
                                         Because it's easy to remember to work out
                                         
                                         if you have to step over your bench to open the fridge.
                                         
                                         But he has another workout room.
                                         
    
                                         That is true.
                                         
                                         He has another workout room a few steps away. Yeah. Like another one. But he doesn't have to step over that to get pop tarts. That's smart. But he has another workout room. Right, that is true. He has another workout room like a few steps away.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Like another one.
                                         
                                         But he doesn't have
                                         
                                         a step over that
                                         
                                         to get pop tarts.
                                         
                                         That makes sense
                                         
    
                                         because you're going
                                         
                                         to the fridge.
                                         
                                         You're like,
                                         
                                         well, I got to hit
                                         
                                         the bench before
                                         
                                         I eat today.
                                         
                                         And then you start
                                         
                                         hitting the bench.
                                         
    
                                         It's like,
                                         
                                         why am I doing this
                                         
                                         in the kitchen?
                                         
                                         And then you go
                                         
                                         down to your normal place.
                                         
                                         Here, after.
                                         
                                         I'll work out
                                         
                                         with you after.
                                         
    
                                         What's your bench?
                                         
                                         Not high enough to say.
                                         
                                         What's yours?
                                         
                                         I haven't benched in a while.
                                         
                                         Blood was over here benching like 30 plates.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I hurt my left shoulder.
                                         
                                         That's why I actually don't like it.

                                         I saw it on the Colin and Samir podcast.

                                         I was talking to him outside.
                                         
                                         I didn't know what it looks like.
                                         
                                         I'm not kidding.
                                         
    
                                         There's actually like an entire population of girls who are about to kill you.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I don't know.
                                         
                                         You know what?
                                         
                                         That's how like how nubile I am.
                                         
                                         I was literally like, oh, it's Carl.
                                         
                                         Oh, he's like a friend probably.
                                         
                                         That's cool.
                                         
                                         I was talking to him outside.
                                         
    
                                         He's like.
                                         
                                         Yeah, there's a guy named Carl in the building and it's just not that one.
                                         
                                         No, no.
                                         
                                         He's got friends.
                                         
                                         And then I'm talking to him and I was like, wait, what's your tag?
                                         
                                         Because he's saying, oh, I have a friend named Foolish Gamers.
                                         
                                         He's got to change that one.
                                         
                                         And I'm like, yeah, that's kind of crazy.
                                         
    
                                         I was like, what's your gamer name?
                                         
                                         He's like, I'm Carl Jacobs.
                                         
                                         I'm like, oh.
                                         
                                         We have a Carl Jacobs shirt that's just rotting outside our house because a lot of people just left it out there.
                                         
                                         Well, it's because I go outside and I want to get vitamin D because it's good for me.
                                         
                                         And so I always go out with a shirt and then I leave it off and then I never bring it back in.
                                         
                                         Hey, Carl, we were just talking about you.
                                         
                                         Carl, do you know about this?
                                         
    
                                         You're coming in with a soccer ball.
                                         
                                         Don't tell Carl about it.
                                         
                                         I've been itching to tell him about this.
                                         
                                         This is actually really important.

                                         I didn't pee on it.
                                         
                                         And then he ate cereal out of his chest.
                                         
                                         Yeah, it was a fucked up day, man.

                                         He told us not to tell you.
                                         
                                         Ludwig will leave your shit outside in the dirt every single day.
                                         
                                         It's really weird.
                                         
                                         Why are you wearing it?
                                         
                                         I'm wearing it right now.
                                         
                                         Why would you keep wearing it?

                                         And he just
                                         
                                         Wendover is every YouTuber's favorite YouTuber, dude.

                                         I just skipped the line.
                                         
    
                                         I'm old as fuck.
                                         
                                         You should start watching YouTube, though.
                                         
                                         It would help you be more successful.
                                         
                                         What would your intros be?
                                         
                                         If you wanted people to watch YouTube, who do you give them?
                                         
                                         Not that you're not, but you know what I'm saying?
                                         
                                         It would help you have more hair.
                                         
                                         I mean, that's weird.
                                         
    
                                         I'm not offended.
                                         
                                         I'm just trying to process what he means.
                                         
                                         Because I'm like, am I not successful?
                                         
                                         Here's the thing, Mr. Beast.
                                         
                                         I'm not saying you're not successful.
                                         
                                         I'm just saying.
                                         
                                         No, no.
                                         
                                         If I stopped watching YouTube, I wouldn't understand culture.
                                         
    
                                         I wouldn't know what's going on.
                                         
                                         I would be less successful.
                                         
                                         We all would.
                                         
                                         But I watch other things.
                                         
                                         Understanding culture?
                                         
                                         He hasn't seen Quincy, boys.
                                         
                                         I mean.
                                         
                                         I'm caught red-handed.
                                         
    
                                         Yes, I'm culturally literate in other ways.
                                         
                                         But I have a question for you. If you get magically

                                         he's transported into yours but he just decides

                                         I'm in Ludwig's body. He beats off

                                         put them in the video at some way and then after we establish a good trust relationship with the
                                         
    
                                         audience we would elaborate on expanding the content a little bit. Expand to what? I don't know.
                                         
                                         Why didn't you just box a YouTuber?
                                         
                                         Because I'd heard.
                                         
                                         Because then he couldn't go downstairs
                                         
                                         and then go upstairs and pet his cat.
                                         
                                         So we did a little boxing lesson last week
                                         
                                         with a group of Twitch streamers
                                         
                                         and I did a thing.
                                         
    
                                         A fly just flew in my ear.
                                         
                                         You should zoom into that.
                                         
                                         Production, we can zoom in a little bit.
                                         
                                         You want to zoom in on that
                                         
                                         we're finishing the boxing lesson and the last time we talked about boxing whether or not he
                                         
                                         would do it or not he was like yeah i'm too worried that if i get punched in my chest hole
                                         
                                         i'll just die i thought he was joking but at the end of the lesson he goes up to to coach quick
                                         
                                         he's like coach coach coach do you think if i got punched here i would die and but it's for real he's like he's like actually worried about it and coach. Do you think if I got punched here, I would die? But it's for real.
                                         
    
                                         He's like, I actually worried about it.
                                         
                                         And coach is like, no, I think you'd be, I think you'd be fine.
                                         
                                         Like, that's the dumbest shit I've ever been asked to do.
                                         
                                         Get a nice hole through him.

                                         very time consuming and not much leverage unless you're like because like youtube video can get a
                                         
                                         million views a month every month for the next five years but like the stream unless you're like
                                         
                                         gearing it to where which i don't think like you're doing it better than almost everyone else like actually gearing it to where it's content afterwards you know what
                                         
                                         i mean yeah but like like if we somehow could stream our gaming videos and then still make
                                         
    
                                         them gaming videos afterwards like that would be ideal right but streaming on its own just
                                         
                                         most people don't like xqc doesn't do that he just streams and then uploads his raw vods yeah
                                         
                                         but then yeah like and they go they go there to die yeah yeah you're like removing the leverage from the equation so it's just like hours in equals hours out it's almost like you know an
                                         
                                         hourly rate doesn't it blow your mind though that xqc gets like 80 to 100k doing anything
                                         
                                         like concurrent viewers um no i mean he's like he understands community and he understands like
                                         
                                         that type of stuff i mean which is the i'm kind of the polar opposite in a lot of ways but he's just like
                                         
                                         the guy you vibe with and you just you know i assume a lot of them are just because they're
                                         
                                         not watching it for five hours it's just kind of there and you just check back you know occasionally
                                         
    
                                         you would never want to be a second monitor andy you want to be on the front monitor
                                         
                                         if i was ever a streamer it would be like a friday night one hour we're fucking breaking
                                         
                                         the internet type beat never like every day for 10 hours that makes sense i would try like
                                         
                                         my logic would be i would try to pull more views than i could if i streamed 10 hours every day
                                         
                                         like take all those viewers all of it combined like 10 hours every day seven days and just like
                                         
                                         how could i just pull all those viewers in a one hour increment so i don't have to waste all that
                                         
                                         time you know i feel like it's what minecrafters were doing for a while they would run big events
                                         
                                         they try to get most viewers possible but it was so hard to sustain and then i feel like they got
                                         
    
                                         depressed because the number lowered.
                                         
                                         Yeah, because they didn't build a team or anything
                                         
                                         to make it more sustainable, most of them.
                                         
                                         Ta-bye.

                                         who could set up the streams
                                         
    
                                         and write the creative

                                         Right.
                                         
                                         People.
                                         
                                         Isn't that crazy how you poached all the people from the place that we used to work at and
                                         
                                         now we work for you.
                                         
                                         That's literally what I'm doing.
                                         
    
                                         I've hired about,
                                         
                                         I have 15 employees so far and I've,
                                         
                                         and I've hired a few from a production company that I think is really good with the goal
                                         
                                         of doing that.
                                         
                                         Can I like plan a stream for you one time?
                                         
                                         Yeah,
                                         
                                         please.
                                         
                                         Can we try to, what is it, 80K you said?
                                         
    
                                         80K, it's 89K.
                                         
                                         You have to beat Johnny Depp.
                                         
                                         We got to beat 89,000.
                                         
                                         He's got to hire a director, writer, and a bisexual.
                                         
                                         That's how you build a company.
                                         
                                         Diversity.
                                         
                                         I think my most viewed stream will be this July, July 2nd,
                                         
                                         because I'm doing Mogul Money Live,
                                         
    
                                         and I think that'll break 100K.
                                         
                                         That'll be fun time.
                                         
                                         You don't know about this at all?
                                         
                                         It just doesn't sound like something that would break the 89K.
                                         
                                         All right, give me a rebrand.
                                         
                                         It's basically me ripping off Jeopardy bar for bar with six streamers.
                                         
                                         Live.
                                         
                                         Live.
                                         
    
                                         Finally, he admits it.
                                         
                                         It's a SoFi stadium.
                                         
                                         Yeah, then I would just like call it jeopardy and whatever
                                         
                                         can't do that or did squiggy give me suits actually that's a good actually how didn't
                                         
                                         you get sued but for the creator of squeak game literally said like uh someone asked like an
                                         
                                         interviewer asked him and he was like yeah i love when people uh recreated or what not that words
                                         
                                         but he's like i love when people make videos on squid game it you know bill drives attention and
                                         
                                         i saw that i was like let's go he loves it charles doing that first is important
                                         
    
                                         because we we did a event uh a smash event that was olympic themed yeah and they didn't like that
                                         
                                         olympics is one of the few ones that they're just like very protective of it but like most brands
                                         
                                         like they they understand it's free promotion like you doing
                                         
                                         that jeopardy thing in no way would hurt the viewership of jeopardy and would just educate
                                         
                                         more younger people who aren't 50 but you know like hell jeopardy is are you scared of boomer
                                         
                                         companies being boomers like were you scared of willy wonka no i just called netflix and i think
                                         
                                         they didn't really care willy wonka's got to be public domain at this no it's owned by netflix
                                         
                                         also but at the end of the day, like, what damage did we do?
                                         
    
                                         We just brought more attention to the series.
                                         
                                         Like, a lot of the older people, like, our age, grew up watching old Willy Wonka.
                                         
                                         And then there was, like, the remade one for people who are, like, maybe, like, high teens.
                                         
                                         But, like, most people that, like, are young teenagers have just never seen Willy Wonka.
                                         
                                         You know what I mean? Do you think there's more nuance when it's something like a repeated show that he does that could potentially-
                                         
                                         Hey, go away.
                                         
                                         Just kidding.
                                         
                                         It's Sean.
                                         
    
                                         It's Sean.
                                         
                                         He's quitting.
                                         
                                         You can come in.
                                         
                                         That was a joke.
                                         
                                         See what happens.
                                         
                                         That was a joke.
                                         
                                         This is what happens in the workplace at Beast Incorporated.
                                         
                                         Oh, we might be getting robbed.
                                         
    
                                         I don't know.
                                         
                                         I'm with it.
                                         
                                         Is that your guy?
                                         
                                         That would be the way
                                         
                                         to do it in this scenario
                                         
                                         how's it going
                                         
                                         yeah it's air punson
                                         
                                         what was your
                                         
    
                                         question
                                         
                                         oh my question was
                                         
                                         do you think that
                                         
                                         it's different when
                                         
                                         you're doing like
                                         
                                         like for him right
                                         
                                         he's like
                                         
                                         mogul money is a
                                         
    
                                         repeated show that
                                         
                                         he does like you know
                                         
                                         once a month or whatever
                                         
                                         do you think like
                                         
                                         they could view it as
                                         
                                         like potentially trying
                                         
                                         to replace the show
                                         
                                         just ask them
                                         
    
                                         yeah that is definitely
                                         
                                         what you should do
                                         
                                         just ask them
                                         
                                         but you know what I'm scared of also it's scared of them having eyes on it and then shutting it down anyways yeah but then if they say no trying to replace the show ask them yeah that is definitely what you should do is just ask them but
                                         
                                         you know what i'm scared also it's scared of them having eyes on it and then shutting it down
                                         
                                         anyways for yeah but then if if they say no then you just bomb it and call whatever but like sure
                                         
                                         don't if they say sure i'm a big believer in don't ask don't tell okay the thing is he's gonna do it
                                         
                                         anyways he's just asking if he can put jeopardy in the title sure yeah i guess that makes sense
                                         
    
                                         we're too nintendo pilled we've've been scared of Nintendo since we started.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I think that actually might be part of it.
                                         
                                         I think we're just...
                                         
                                         I do think...
                                         
                                         I always pretend that I operate with the phrase,
                                         
                                         do it and then ask for forgiveness.
                                         
                                         Yeah, don't ask for permission, ask for forgiveness.
                                         
    
                                         You do that with your friends.
                                         
                                         Yeah, but...
                                         
                                         Your girlfriend, your family.
                                         
                                         He just doesn't answer your call.
                                         
                                         It's more than that, Jimmy.
                                         
                                         It's more than that.
                                         
                                         And I wish he would understand that. Jimbo, I wish it was just that. Is this just a roast Ludwig? That's just than that, Jimmy. It's more than that. And I wish he would understand that.
                                         
                                         Jimbo, I wish it was just that.
                                         
    
                                         Is this just a roast Ludwig?
                                         
                                         That's just what the show is.
                                         
                                         That's all we have.
                                         
                                         Sometimes we take a break and we do that guy.
                                         
                                         You should just change it to roast Ludwig.
                                         
                                         We did that already.
                                         
                                         He says all I do is give, but all I want from him is to give me his attention.
                                         
                                         Oh, attention.
                                         
    
                                         Just a little bit.
                                         
                                         You know what I had to do today for my girlfriend?
                                         
                                         Some dumb shit?
                                         
                                         Yeah. I had to text her.
                                         
                                         Bro, women always

                                         She's always checking in,
                                         
                                         wondering if my flight landed.
                                         
    
                                         Why women like flowers like that?
                                         
                                         She messages the house group chat, hey, if anyone's with Ludwig, can you have him
                                         
                                         message me? None of us are. He instantly is like,

                                         I was in Boston.
                                         
                                         We were in Boston because I went to a wedding,
                                         
                                         and I had to fly to LA with her,
                                         
    
                                         and then I flew from LA to North Carolina here.
                                         
                                         Why didn't you just fly here?
                                         
                                         Because she's terrified of flying, you know, like Charlie is.
                                         
                                         That's relatable, yeah.
                                         
                                         I'm fucking horribly terrified of flying.
                                         
                                         Wait, are you?
                                         
                                         Yeah, I hate it.
                                         
                                         You fly all the time, don't you?
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, I crank the music so loud and close my eyes for it,
                                         
                                         I just don't even realize when the plane takes off.
                                         
                                         You taking half a Xan?
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         14 hours till I land.
                                         
                                         He bleeds.
                                         
                                         Wow.
                                         
                                         I didn't know this about you,
                                         
    
                                         because when I was here, we were doing the poker thing,
                                         
                                         and you wanted someone else to come.
                                         
                                         So you asked Charlie, he was like, I'm screwed of flying.
                                         
                                         And you're like, oh, yeah, you just come on.
                                         
                                         Well, that's why I remember I quoted all the statistics.
                                         
                                         You knew all the stats off of it.
                                         
                                         Yeah, that's why, because when I first started flying,
                                         
                                         I just was like, I knew the probability.
                                         
    
                                         I was like,
                                         
                                         there's like a one in like
                                         
                                         10 billion chance I die.
                                         
                                         One in 10 billion.
                                         
                                         If I die, honestly, it's funny.
                                         
                                         I deserve to die if I die.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         The odds are so low.
                                         
    
                                         And I would just,
                                         
                                         as I'm looking out the window,
                                         
                                         we're getting higher and higher.
                                         
                                         I'm like, okay,
                                         
                                         I'm at the point where I die.
                                         
                                         But it's still one in 10 billion.
                                         
                                         So it's just,
                                         
                                         I'm only going to die
                                         
    
                                         if God hates me.
                                         
                                         But then that's fine
                                         
                                         because God hates me.
                                         
                                         That's the Austin show
                                         
                                         coping method. That's the Austin show copied method.
                                         
                                         That's what Austin did to handle his fear of flying too.
                                         
                                         He just learned so many stats about, about how planes work.
                                         
                                         And, uh, and that gave him the confidence.
                                         
    
                                         And also if you were to die, it's on takeoff and landing.
                                         
                                         Those are the two times it goes wrong.
                                         
                                         And so like when the plane's landing, I just use that same method.
                                         
                                         I'm like, these are really pretty houses.
                                         
                                         Like if planes just crashed here randomly, there wouldn't be houses here because every airport's around my
                                         
                                         houses and so it's going and i'm like fuck i'm about to die fuck i'm like well actually i wouldn't
                                         
                                         if this plane would crash here there wouldn't be a house there so i'm surely they wouldn't build
                                         
                                         things near the airport yeah so that's that's kind of like it's crashing like the jungle they
                                         
    
                                         don't crash my entire like plane ride is me just using analogies to like
                                         
                                         calm myself down i'm like yeah well that house wouldn't be there if a plane would just crash
                                         
                                         there so i'm good and then we're getting closer i'm like all right well we're low enough where
                                         
                                         it's like only half the people would die so like now i'm much better yeah on the on the plane ride
                                         
                                         uh i was just in vegas on the plane ride of vegas um there was like extreme turbulence and normally
                                         
                                         i'm like whatever turbo i have like i think one of you told me it's like like turbulence you can't do any it can't flip the plane yeah it's never caused a class yeah so i was like extreme turbulence. And normally I'm like, whatever, I have like, I think one of you told me, it's like turbulence.
                                         
                                         You can't do any, it can't flip the plane over.
                                         
                                         It can't flip the plane, yeah.
                                         
    
                                         It's never caused a crash, yeah.
                                         
                                         So I was like, okay, I just think about that every time.
                                         
                                         And the history of US planes, right?
                                         
                                         Or the whole world.
                                         
                                         I've heard just planes, not specified.
                                         
                                         It's just turbulence has never caused a crash.
                                         
                                         It just feels scary.
                                         
                                         Look, don't look deeper, don't look deeper.
                                         
    
                                         It'll fuck your life up.
                                         
                                         When I was like literally in the Bahamas,
                                         
                                         our pilot was literally telling us,
                                         
                                         he's like, yeah, yeah one time my plane just
                                         
                                         cut off midair my co-pilot had to like crawl through the space and like restart the engine
                                         
                                         manually and while it was just gliding and then turn it back on midair so like i've heard wait
                                         
                                         that's not turbulence though no i know but i'm just going for a trick shot my point is because
                                         
                                         we do videos on very weird places sometimes i've flown on some sketchy ass planes and if you think
                                         
    
                                         there's never been one of those fucked-up planes
                                         
                                         that have been just destroyed because of turbulence,
                                         
                                         you are just insane.
                                         
                                         Because I feel like the littlest thing could just fuck those planes up.
                                         
                                         So maybe we're just listening to Big Airplane.
                                         
                                         Yeah, well, that's it.
                                         
                                         If you fly on a major U.S. airline,
                                         
                                         it is literally one of the safest places in all of America you could be at any point.
                                         
    
                                         You're literally never going to die.
                                         
                                         You could spend your whole life flying on it and're less safe you're gonna get like shot on the
                                         
                                         ground you're less safe not in the plane yeah true yeah but in my in my flight so i was in
                                         
                                         turbulence i'm like shaking and i'm like all right yeah you're not supposed to die whatever
                                         
                                         and then over the intercom um one of the uh flight attendants says uh this is an emergency
                                         
                                         or so it sounded what she actually said was if there is an emergency and then went to explain
                                         
                                         how your auction works but everyone on the plane said was, if there is an emergency, and then went to explain how your auction works,
                                         
                                         but everyone on the plane thought
                                         
    
                                         that they said this is an emergency.
                                         
                                         That's scary.
                                         
                                         And so everyone was panicking,
                                         
                                         and I was like, oh, I'm dying.
                                         
                                         This is where I died on a plane,
                                         
                                         and I always thought it might go this way.
                                         
                                         I kind of accepted that for a moment.
                                         
                                         You have to.
                                         
    
                                         And then she was like,
                                         
                                         everyone was like, no, I think it said this.
                                         
                                         We came back.
                                         
                                         My first reaction would be to pull my phone out
                                         
                                         and be like, all right like alright guys if you find this
                                         
                                         yes sir
                                         
                                         I spent five minutes
                                         
                                         descending from a plane
                                         
    
                                         to my death
                                         
                                         no that was the joke
                                         
                                         because we knew
                                         
                                         this plane crash video
                                         
                                         was coming up
                                         
                                         and we were in this like

                                         we were like
                                         
                                         you know if this crashes
                                         
                                         and we live

                                         early
                                         
                                         you know my fear of flying
                                         
                                         how I beat it

                                         If I imagine
                                         
                                         If we start going down
                                         
                                         We start like tail spinning
                                         
                                         I sing Sweet Caroline

                                         In the plane
                                         
                                         Has a scratching glass

                                         And so the flight recorder

                                         From this rubble
                                         
                                         And they listen to it
                                         
                                         And they're like
                                         
                                         What the fuck was going on
                                         
                                         in here? And that makes me feel good.

                                         had a group of friends you would call and you talk about youtube all every day and stuff um i was curious do you think that you
                                         
                                         could just have done that but for like league of legends and just been like really good at that
                                         
                                         game or something or do you think that you have a specific understanding of this anything my my
                                         
                                         true talent is just like no life and obsessive ring over something for like really long periods
                                         
                                         like basically the last 10 years almost every other day i just obsess over youtube so that's that's really my skill it's just hyper obsessing so if
                                         
                                         it was league of legends or whatever i'm confident whatever it would have been i could be successful
                                         
                                         at because it's just like if it's that one thing for me you just can't put more time in it than i

                                         We'll bleep it, and then we'll react to the number,
                                         
                                         and that's probably like...
                                         
                                         Oh, my God. that's actually not that
                                         
                                         that's actually not nearly as much as i thought it would be after looking at the diablo immortal
                                         
                                         numbers oh yeah that's what i was thinking so yeah what so the way it kind of started is i
                                         
                                         i used to play a game very similar since we're talking about the stupid mobile game a long time
                                         
                                         ago when i was like 16 and i got super hooked i but i didn't have any money but you can run
                                         
    
                                         emulators you can have tons of accounts.
                                         
                                         So I was managing like 10 different accounts.
                                         
                                         You're bot farming.
                                         
                                         Like playing each of the game
                                         
                                         on 10 different phones
                                         
                                         because alts were okay.
                                         
                                         Like you're a poker player.
                                         
                                         And my entire clan was just me
                                         
    
                                         on different devices.
                                         
                                         And I was playing like 12 hours a day.
                                         
                                         And I managed after like six months
                                         
                                         to become like the number one player
                                         
                                         in the world on a game called Magecraft.
                                         
                                         Very similar setup, bases, whatever.
                                         
                                         And I just was fucking no life in the shit out of it even in class and stuff i'd go use the bathroom
                                         
                                         sign into all 10 accounts like move my troops around and then the game ended up shutting down
                                         
    
                                         thank god i was way too addicted um anything that requires strategy is competitive and like you can
                                         
                                         know life like if there's a universe or that game doesn't shut down and you're not the biggest
                                         
                                         youtuber i actually used to
                                         
                                         make videos on the game
                                         
                                         really
                                         
                                         yeah and so I'm like
                                         
                                         so I got a billion troops
                                         
                                         and their marches
                                         
    
                                         take about an hour
                                         
                                         so I place them here
                                         
                                         so we can cover this radius
                                         
                                         and like all this stupid shit
                                         
                                         oh my game shut off
                                         
                                         I'll just go make
                                         
                                         a hundred million dollars
                                         
                                         you would have been
                                         
    
                                         the first American
                                         
                                         to make it in Starcraft
                                         
                                         in Korea
                                         
                                         maybe
                                         
                                         if you could pursue that
                                         
                                         so the game shut down
                                         
                                         and I was like
                                         
                                         no I'm never playing
                                         
    
                                         these games again
                                         
                                         I can't there's something about it where it's like cocaine that enters playing these games again i can't it's just they there's something
                                         
                                         about it where it's like cocaine that enters my veins and i just can't stop and then fast forward
                                         
                                         to the fasting video i'm just dying in bed i'm like i i can't i'm just laying in bed 12 hours
                                         
                                         a day that's how i conserved energy and i got this tiktok at i was like oh that looks fun i was and
                                         
                                         i all like this flood of nostalgia just hit me and it was a game very similar almost like a direct ripoff and i downloaded it and the rest was history and
                                         
                                         then it's like now i'm just you know i have an excuse to lay in bed for 10 hours and then so i
                                         
                                         start playing i start learning the game and studying and then you know i have like my five
                                         
    
                                         monitors up and i'm like doing the spreadsheets because it's like the only time i've ever been
                                         
                                         able to do nothing for 10 days because literally i just had to not eat that was my job just not
                                         
                                         eat food it didn't matter what i did as long as i didn't eat food and so i just
                                         
                                         played this game it was like kept me sane and then you know and then i was like yeah this is kind of
                                         
                                         bad i should probably go back to working and then like a bunch of the top players just started shit
                                         
                                         talking me like crazy and they don't know it's you yeah uh well they some of them did some they
                                         
                                         just didn't believe me but they were like you know you could practice this game for years. You'll never catch up.
                                         
                                         They're just like, you're a million dollars.
                                         
    
                                         I boned your mom.
                                         
                                         They're just being a little toxic.
                                         
                                         And so then my competitive nature was like, okay, you know what?
                                         
                                         I'll sabotage my business to screw these little kids over.

                                         and my shield went off.
                                         
    
                                         They only give you six hours of shield.
                                         
                                         So basically my sleep schedule
                                         
                                         just went from nine hours to six hours,
                                         
                                         so that's just how I have to live.
                                         
                                         Some Mr. Beast fan who's a cia agent is listening and they're like he doesn't have what it takes so i sleep in i sleep in an extra 49 minutes and i wake up and i just see the
                                         
                                         final little scraps of my base it's just being taken by these 30 little vultures then they're
                                         
                                         just like hi you overslept nerd because they fucking knew when i woke up and start playing
                                         
                                         every day i love the idea of you describing why you have like no leverage streaming but then you
                                         
    
                                         spend like eight hours doing this and you're possibly having negative leverage yeah i know
                                         
                                         and i'm trying to quit but i just can't and i love that just buy the company and well i already
                                         
                                         asked if i could invest and we're working on it. We'll see. Yeah, dude.
                                         
                                         I have a lot of ideas of how I would-
                                         
                                         What's funny is you've leaked more about the videos you're going to make
                                         
                                         than your strategies in this game.
                                         
                                         Well, yeah, because I can't.
                                         
                                         Then my lead would cripple, man.
                                         
    
                                         I've spent a lot of time and a lot of money building this lead.
                                         
                                         What's funny is he could honestly leak how he makes YouTube videos,
                                         
                                         and no one would put the fucking effort in.
                                         
                                         Yeah, nobody has-
                                         
                                         I do.
                                         
                                         I get on podcasts all the time.
                                         
                                         I'm like, here's what I do.
                                         
                                         Here's how you can make $10 million a year. a lot of people don't have the capital i imagine or or maybe are willing to put the work in but
                                         
    
                                         in this case it's like somebody's down to grind this strat out on their phone probably
                                         
                                         yeah well also i spent an absurd amount of money on gears so my troops move quicker than everyone
                                         
                                         sometimes i like someone will send an attack i'll take their base and then move those same
                                         
                                         troops back to defend the base and then they'll just be like what the fuck i'm like oh sorry
                                         
                                         you like ender's game growing up ender's game never saw it okay yeah you're just you're just
                                         
                                         that kid can i ask you a question i've never you might not think you might not like me for i've

                                         I count it to a hundred thousand.
                                         
                                         I watched it every day for 10 hours.
                                         
    
                                         I was named a hundred thousand times.
                                         
                                         Yeah,
                                         
                                         I counted to 200,000
                                         
                                         and then I counted to 300,000.
                                         
                                         I think there's something,
                                         
                                         I think there's something about
                                         
                                         putting yourself in soil.
                                         
                                         I drove across America.
                                         
    
                                         The one where you tried to,
                                         
                                         I walked a marathon
                                         
                                         in the world's largest pairs of shoes.
                                         
                                         That one was silly.
                                         
                                         I went to solitary confinement.
                                         
                                         Do you have a gun?
                                         
                                         I can get this faster. I can get this faster. Do you have a gun? I can get this faster.
                                         
                                         I can get this faster.
                                         
    
                                         If I have a gun,
                                         
                                         I can kill myself.
                                         
                                         Just kidding.

                                         Yeah.

                                         It's always the next one.
                                         
                                         When I ranked the YouTubers
                                         
                                         I would fight
                                         
                                         and didn't put Mr. Beast
                                         
                                         in the video,

                                         Ryan Trahan.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Oh, is he the, is he the petty guy?
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I think this is my favorite series on YouTube in a while.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         You want to, are you going to VidCon?

                                         I mean, because sometime around after VidCon.
                                         
                                         I mean, it's not scripted, so we don't know.
                                         
                                         Let me hit that.
                                         
                                         Get it over there.
                                         
    
                                         God, you've done it again, you motherfucker.
                                         
                                         All right.
                                         
                                         You want this?
                                         
                                         That'd be tight.
                                         
                                         Are you liking that series?
                                         
                                         I feel like it's like...
                                         
                                         Yeah, it's good.
                                         
                                         I think what he did was pretty revolutionary in
                                         
    
                                         the sense that like back in the day we all watched casey and i stat i a lot of people watched uh
                                         
                                         logan paul like vlogs were huge but then they kind of died in modern youtube because they're
                                         
                                         it's just like no one cares it's kind of boring and so he what he did is he found a way to like
                                         
                                         basically make a modern vlog it's like an overarching vlog isn't like a single story
                                         
                                         single story single story single story anymore in my opinion it's like an overarching vlog isn't like a single story single story single story single story anymore in my opinion it's like an overarching story spanning across all of them so
                                         
                                         you have a reason to check in every day so there's a click and then even better it's like it's to
                                         
                                         help people it's raising food to feed people in need and it's just like it's also a spectacle in
                                         
                                         the sense that he's crossing america he's having to make all the money like it's a spectacle it's
                                         
    
                                         you know overarching story it's literally modern vlogging done to perfection so i think it's a spectacle it's you know overarching story it's literally modern vlogging
                                         
                                         done to perfection so i think it's very impressive i think a problem i see with a lot of youtubers
                                         
                                         and it's the same problem that like comedians have is they get rich and then they get out of touch
                                         
                                         and they like they're unrelatable and so the vlog is like you know like casey and i said it was like
                                         
                                         first class every fucking time you know flying across the i don't think that made him unrelatable
                                         
                                         though i feel like his most watched youtube video i don't think that's true he got old he only died because he stopped
                                         
                                         uploading not because you think yeah 100 like his those he did five of those and they all got
                                         
                                         over 50 million views like those aren't the reason his channel died right those if anything that's
                                         
    
                                         what kept him alive longer it's just a lack of i did the thumbnail one of them really did pretty

                                         No.
                                         
                                         No.
                                         
                                         That would be great.
                                         
                                         I think that would hit.
                                         
                                         Nobody wants to see you naked.
                                         
    
                                         That would hit with a certain demo.
                                         
                                         No, I just want to be naked.
                                         
                                         You do want to be naked.
                                         
                                         You were gone, and he took his clothes off, and then he put them back on.
                                         
                                         I got to reply to the guy that-
                                         
                                         That really happened.
                                         
                                         Yeah, I know.
                                         
                                         That makes sense.
                                         
    
                                         It was crazy.
                                         
                                         He just kept taking your clothes off.
                                         
                                         Were you replying to the guy who's managing your army.
                                         
                                         Does he have the keys to the kingdom?
                                         
                                         He logs in, does... Actually, I don't want that.
                                         
                                         That might be TLS.
                                         
                                         That might be TLS.
                                         
                                         We let the army do the army's stuff.
                                         
    
                                         Yeah, general's general.
                                         
                                         And that's how it works.
                                         
                                         Do you think you have what it takes to kill, Ludwig?
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         Yeah.

                                         So we sketched the thumbnails before we shoot them.
                                         
                                         Yeah, he showed us an MS Paint image.
                                         
                                         It looks very funny.

                                         Oh, this is the video we're filming tomorrow.
                                         
    
                                         The options. You already make the thumbnail?
                                         
                                         Well, those are options.
                                         
                                         And then we'll actually shoot it to see which one I want.
                                         
                                         Okay, wait, wait, wait.
                                         
                                         Hold up.
                                         
                                         Let me test my eye real quick.
                                         
                                         The fucked up part is I can't tell the difference.
                                         
                                         Wait, show me. Show me. Tons of differences. I can't tell the difference. I'll show me show me the differences.
                                         
    
                                         I can't tell the difference.
                                         
                                         I can't tell the difference in the different.
                                         
                                         So what are the differences?
                                         
                                         Some of them have the front of the plane crash.
                                         
                                         Some of them only have one half or two halves.
                                         
                                         Yeah, and this is a this is like cgi sketch.

                                         Oh, so we do a paint sketch, a cgi sketch, and then I shoot the actual one.
                                         
    
                                         Now let me find your guy.

                                         Oh, someone told me that.
                                         
    
                                         One of your PAs told me that.
                                         
                                         I think they can just say it about anything.
                                         
                                         They said, oh, that was for the thumbnail.
                                         
                                         They pointed to your room.
                                         
                                         One versus 100, that's going to be the thumbnail,
                                         
                                         except that'll be more of a baby on the right.
                                         
                                         Wait, you haven't even shot it.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
    
                                         I mean, that's the sketch.
                                         
                                         I got to make sure I like the thumbnail before I film it
                                         
                                         or I'll have an existential crisis.
                                         
                                         I guess that's fair.
                                         
                                         Most YouTubers do the other way around, and or I'll have an existential crisis. I guess that's fair. Most YouTubers do the other way around and then they do have that existential crisis.
                                         
                                         Yeah.
                                         
                                         I like to front load my mental breakdown.
                                         
                                         You can just do what me and Ludwig do, which is we film the pod and then the night before
                                         
    
                                         we put it up, we DM on Discord at like 1am and we talk about what the thumbnail should
                                         
                                         be and then I do it in an hour.
                                         
                                         Yeah.

                                         I'm getting kind of nervous that it would be my most viewed video.
                                         
                                         Oh, it will.
                                         
                                         Well, that's what he wants.
                                         
                                         It absolutely will.
                                         
    
                                         This is a data point for him and a big dick exercise for him.
                                         
                                         There is factually. How many?
                                         
                                         How many?
                                         
                                         How many?
                                         
                                         I think it gets under 10 mil.
                                         
                                         That is factually not possible.
                                         
                                         That's crazy.
                                         
                                         Even though I think that's the most horseshit video we've ever made.
                                         
    
                                         It will still do over 10 mil. It's on my channel. People won't know about it. Okay. shit video we've ever made, it was still due over 10 million.
                                         
                                         It's on my channel and people won't know about it.
                                         
                                         Okay. How much do you want to bet it does
                                         
                                         under 10 mil? All the revenue from it?
                                         
                                         Oh shit. This is hype.
                                         
                                         I need that revenue from it.
                                         
                                         Under 10 mil in how many days?

                                         Oh, shrinking it.

                                         What?

                                         That's true, too.

                                         All right.
                                         
                                         Well, we're about at time, gamers.
                                         
                                         Oh, okay.
                                         
                                         Now that he got what he wanted.

                                         but you might look like Simon five years.
                                         
    
                                         It's getting thinner.
                                         
                                         I don't know you, but I know that.
                                         
                                         Hey, Nolan, this is what you have to look forward to.
                                         
                                         You're going to look like you stopped eating
                                         
                                         before 30 days finished.
                                         
                                         All right, see you tomorrow in the heat, Nolan.
                                         
                                         That about does it for the yard with Mr. Bean.
                                         
                                         All right, so I can check in on my army?
                                         
    
                                         Wait, wait, wait.
                                         
                                         We have a video idea for you.
                                         
                                         We have a video idea for you. We have to pitch you an idea.
                                         
                                         A long time ago, we said if we ever had you on, we'd pitch an idea to you.
                                         
                                         Okay, pitch me. I'll be ruthless.
                                         
                                         I ate an entire tire.
                                         
                                         So when's the video, though?
                                         
                                         Do you think it's good?
                                         
    
                                         You just eat a tire.
                                         
                                         I, Mr. Beast, ate a whole tire for $100,000.
                                         
                                         And you eat a tire with your mouth.
                                         
                                         Yeah, you like eat your teeth.
                                         
                                         You boil it maybe.
                                         
                                         And Carl would watch you eat the tire.
                                         
                                         That's a big tire to me.
                                         
                                         You know what?
