["Shine That Light On Me"]
Starting point is 00:02:04 Shine on me And I will find a song I've been singing just for you How are you bro? I'm really good man How you finding England? Oh I'm finding it Yeah, probably one of the best audiences I ever had over in Manchester, actually. Wow. Yeah, they're pretty wild over there.
Starting point is 00:02:29 They were. Everybody. Yeah, just laughing. Like the last week of school where you're just hoping you can convince the teacher, like you have four more days to convince the teacher you were good the whole time. Oh, wow. They were just on it. Oh, they were just locked in man. I love it. Cause yeah, some places it's kind of different.
Starting point is 00:02:48 Like Ireland, sometimes you're like, cause they speak English, but they kind of barely, you know? Yeah, it feels like a different language. Yeah. But it's, even in Scotland as well, it can be quite hard. You should, have you ever met a Scouser? No, I've seen Patty Pimlet. Yeah, it's pretty much that, but in Liverpool it can be quite, yeah, it can be really aggressive.
Starting point is 00:03:13 Patty Pimlet kind of reminds me of like the most violent Beatle. Like if he were one of the Beatles, you know, it would be like Ringo, McCartney. Oh, I thought you meant an actual Beatle. Oh no. Yeah, but it's just showing my age. I'm like, yeah. Yeah, yeah. That's a different... Yeah. So we're back to Bugs. Yeah, they were just... They were one of the most famous bands in the world for a bit.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Oh yeah. Yeah, of course. I mean, they've kind of, I guess they have maybe fallen off. I don't know if we can say that. For fuck, they're the Beatles, man. I mean, do those type of eyes ever fall off? I guess. That's a good question. Have the Beatles fallen off?
Starting point is 00:03:50 I mean, technically, yes. But if you said that, like surely again, riots at your front door. Yeah. I mean, I think, yeah, there would be some people definitely run to their windows in Liverpool and scoff or whatever, you know? Yeah, like that's one thing, like even being... Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like a woman just will touch the, even though her buttons already buttoned, she'll touch
Starting point is 00:04:20 it one more time just to make sure. Oh my God. How dare he? Yeah. That's one thing that's crazy about being over here is just like seeing where like America started, you know? And seeing like how like a little bit more technical things are and people have a little bit more respect for how they communicate with each other. It seems like at least in London. Yeah. No, I feel like it's coming opposite. I feel like if you go up to a normal person, like just walking down the road and you go, Oh, good morning. Everyone would be like,
Starting point is 00:04:53 what the fuck are you doing here? And yes. Oh, wow. That'd be like, that was one of the weirdest things you've ever done. Don't talk to me. Yeah. Like in America, don't talk to me. Yeah. Like in America, it happens all the time. Like I was in North Carolina a few weeks ago and people were just complimenting on what I was wearing. I was like, what the, what? This is weird. But in England, if I complimented, oh, I was there like, oh, nice shoes. You're there like, I'm getting robbed, aren't I? Oh, really? That's how it is. But at least they're properly robbing you like, hey, I'd like to let you know you have nice shoes. I'm going to take them.
Starting point is 00:05:30 I'm there, they're mine now. I feel like there's at least a protocol of violence here. Okay, what in America is there no protocol? It's just willy nilly. I mean- It's just bang bang. Yeah, even if you like, yeah, it's crazy. Cause they'll even have like the telephones
Starting point is 00:05:44 like at the, at the Apple store will be tethered, right? But at the gun place, you can just, you know, you can, they're not even tied down. You know, you would think, well, apparently you don't even need ID for guns, but you have to, at least you have to, you have to be able to say, yes, I need it. You have to answer a couple of questions. I think one, one need it. You have to answer a couple questions. I think one of- Say yes. If you can say yes, you're blessed.
Starting point is 00:06:07 Yeah, and they have one sign, it's like you have to be this tall to own a gun, but it's very short. Okay. It's very- So you can have like a five year old who's just there like- A tall five year old. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Yeah, yeah. A small- I know how to use one of these. I love it. No, America's amazing, man. I've been there so many times. Dude, it's such a, it's a pleasure to see you, man. One of the, one of the like best content creators
Starting point is 00:06:34 and entertainers in England and like, and a business guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dude, that's crazy. It's funny because England is so small. Oh, it is? Yeah, well, I mean, it is, yeah. Dude, that's crazy. It's funny because England is so small. Oh, it is? Yeah. Well, I mean, it is.
Starting point is 00:06:47 Yeah. But so mighty though. Compared to America, like if you said that exact same phrase, but in America, everyone's there like, yo, that's sick. But in England, it's like, bro, like France is bigger than America. Oh yeah. Sorry, dude. No, no, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:07:03 I don't know, honestly. But out of England. I don't take myself seriously, so it's fine. I don't know, honestly. Out of England. I don't take myself seriously, so it's fine. Out of England and over the world. When you look at business stuff, were there some small choices you made along the way in your career that you were like, oh wow, that was bigger than I thought? Or were there things that you kind of passed up
Starting point is 00:07:24 where you're like, maybe that or what, like that was a learning curve. Cause you guys get thrown so many products. I mean, people come at me with all types of stuff, you know, like do these band aids or something and do these neck braces. It's like, I'm not even hurt or anything. And they want you to, um, to be honest, I say no a lot. Like, yeah, just, I get so many things thrown at me.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Something to do with lube, you know, create my own lube. Could be, it could be a good idea, but I'm just there like, why, like. For the autos or no, for the, for the autos or for sex you mean? I don't know what you mean. Or for like, is it a lube for mechanics? For...
Starting point is 00:08:08 No. Like an engineering type of... Like a... No, no, for sex. Oh, alright. Now if you could do a dual lube there... You know what I'm saying? If you're... Hey, this tire's not turning, neither is this woman.
Starting point is 00:08:25 So you could like, you know, I think if you could leverage that now, that's a really- Yeah, you know what? You might be onto something. That's an old- But why me? I mean, I don't know, dude. But you're a multi, you can do a lot.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Yeah, I guess I do many things. You do many things, that's it? From music to, it's more lovable sex these days. Oh, that's funny. Yeah. Like tickling each other till somebody comes or whatever. Yeah, whereas before it was like, oh, I need to show that I'm the dog,
Starting point is 00:08:55 that I'm the alpha. Yeah. Yeah, I've never, I've always come from the approach of I'm not good at sex. So that, so then when you do well, people are like, wow, look what he did like, wow, I'm pleasantly surprised. Oh yeah, definitely. Like I've had some Billy Elliot moments in the bedroom. I don't know who Billy Elliot is.
Starting point is 00:09:20 He's a, no worries. He's a famous, uh, what is he? He's like a famous, he was a, like a famous, what is he? He's like a famous, he was like a kid in, who was Billy Elliot? Can we bring him up? He was a famous dancer kind of, yeah, he's a famous ballerina. Ballerina, the kids were like, he's... Oh wow, okay. Yeah, he was like a famous ballerina. Yeah. Oh, ballerina. And the kids were like, he's, oh wow. Okay. Yeah. He was like a famous ballerina out of where he's from the UK. I think. Wow. And his dad and everybody was like, Hey, what are they doing? Oh wow. But then he said, um, yeah, he ended
Starting point is 00:09:59 up just being like the best ballerina or whatever. And at the end his dad hugged him or whatever. You know, bought him a sandwich or something, something very loving, you know? Yeah. Yeah. That's it's, it's not what you want. Well, it's just like people are like, Oh, this dude, like if this guy shows up and does well, you're like, wow, wow. He's a sandwich. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. It's not the ball. Maybe that's what the movie's about. I don't think I watched it's at the bar. Maybe that's what the movie's about. I don't think I watched it. Yeah, fair. I don't like it. But were there choices of things that you did like pass up where you were like, oh,
Starting point is 00:10:32 that was smart. I like at the time I couldn't see it like just because like having vision like that is interesting and important. You know, like Well, I mean, I can tell you a bad situation where I decided to do this video with some Asian content creator. It was, I don't know why I did it. I think, well, I didn't know why I did it because I got asked to do it for about like 5k at the time.
Starting point is 00:11:00 And for me back then was huge. Oh, it's a lot of money. So I'd just be in this video and I had to like collect balls while being attached to him. So I was also in like Lycra or or just like a really tight morph suit. And we had to just be attached to each other and collect balls. That sounds very, pull Billy Elliot back up again, if you will.
Starting point is 00:11:35 I think that's what we're gonna, so now we've each had our, So that was the one I probably regret. I'm sure if you look hard on the internet, you'll be able to find some. Yeah. Yeah. We had a group. They had a dude. They tried to get me to do wheelchairs. A buddy of mine made like a new style of wheelchair. You know, they have wheelchairs here in England. Like, uh, you know, I'm talking about, if somebody's. Yeah. Yeah. We have wheelchairs. Like that. Yeah. I don't know if sometimes they have it differently, but.
Starting point is 00:12:05 What they have it differently? Sure, okay. Well, people here are more like even Tiny Tim, he's like a famous British kid from the Christmas movie you don't talk about or whatever. Tiny Tim. And he's on crutches, right? Like he wasn't in a wheelchair.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Maybe that's what my brain is thinking. Okay, oh, fair, all right, all right. So yeah, you guys seem like you have a little bit more like at least I'm gonna do the crutches. Whereas in America, we're kind of lazy. We're like, oh, okay, yeah, you guys seem like you have a little bit more like, at least I'm going to do the crutches. Whereas in America, we're kind of lazy. We're like, oh, okay, okay. I hear you. But yeah, my buddy, I was trying to help him out.
Starting point is 00:12:33 He had like this prosthetics business and wheelchair business. And so, you know, I did a couple of photo shoots and like some wheelchairs and shit, but then people were like, well, you're not even, you're like faking being, you're like, you're not disabled or whatever. So people got, you know not even, you're like faking being, you're like, you're not disabled or whatever. So people got, you know, very upset about it.
Starting point is 00:12:49 So, well, how do you feel about like, actors having to be, let's say if they had to be, I know, disabled and they weren't actually disabled, do you think they shouldn't, they should or shouldn't? I'd be pissed if I'm watching the commercial for it. Yeah. Right? And then at the end, the guy gets up and walks off out of the chair.
Starting point is 00:13:09 I'd be a little bit like, well, that's a magic chair. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I don't know what he's having. Yeah, I don't know what he's having. That sounds great. Yeah. So maybe like, yeah, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:13:24 That was just something interesting. But then there's a guy, a friend of mine who's a comedian in the States. He told me one time, the one thing you can always say is just no. Like if you don't know what to do, then just say no, because you're probably okay where you're at and then you can figure it out. Um, yeah. Well, I feel like I've, I've got quite far by just saying no. I mean, obviously I'm glad I said yes to prime. Yeah. I feel like that was definitely, um, a dub. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:13:51 Man. It's unbelievable. I mean, that's something like that. Change. There's something like that change your life to like a different perspective, even for yourself. I mean, that's remarkable. I don't think it's changed me as a person, but it's changed my lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:14:04 Yeah. Yeah. I just have a lot more private jets now. Yeah. Yeah. More private jets. Uh, I more lunch, more, more lunch. I'm able to relax a lot more. Uh, I'm able to just, yeah, not worry about too much. Look after the family, et cetera. Like, yeah, it's just now it's like, I can really just do what I want. Whereas, you know, before prime, I'm still like, I was still able to do what I want, but like I had to be more strategic, et cetera. And you know, like,
Starting point is 00:14:39 I guess play the game a bit more. Yeah. Well, congrats, man. Yeah. I mean, it's, thank you. It's valued at billions of dollars at company. It's taking us a lot of hard work to get to that point. It's just, I think people don't realize, cause you see people trying to replicate Left, Right and Center. Just the marketing you have to do, like especially the first year, we traveled so much from America to Europe to all these different places just to promote. Like day after day, like just doing appearances. Yeah, yeah, and just doing PR, left, right and center, just to constantly get prime in people's faces.
Starting point is 00:15:14 Yeah, it was intense and like, it's quite draining on the body. But like, you know, we knew the vision, we knew we had a product that was going to fly, you know, it tastes great and You know, it's bad than our competitors. So yeah, my nephew has two primes before he goes to sleep. Okay Yeah, and he's doing pretty good. He's um He has his dreams. He said are pretty good. So I think that's why he enjoys it as like kind of a dream enhancer But yeah, he's kind of a unique kid, but I think he's about eight or nine, but yeah, he'll put away some prime before bed But yeah, I think it's just wow when something like that happens and people don't see how much has to go into it How many like just places you have to show up at appearances?
Starting point is 00:15:59 Yeah, who's whose plan was prime was it just you guys had come together and thought about it? So Logan came to me and he was like, oh, you know, I've got this idea, two other guys that we work with when it comes to Prime. And he was like, yeah, we should try and work together. So I was there like, all right, first of all, you know, we were first in a boxing match. So I don't know. Yeah, I remember, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:22 Yeah, I don't know, chill, bro. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But. I remember. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. Chill bro. But you know, I was there like, I wanted like, you know, really understand the product, you know, know who the other two guys were and just really understand everything. And you know, at first I was a bit unsure. You know, I tried the product, the product was fine. I was like, oh, it tastes really good. And then, yeah, we just went with it. So it's unsure. You know, I tried the product, the product was fine. I was like, oh, this tastes really good. And then, yeah, we just went with it. So it's crazy.
Starting point is 00:16:49 If, do we actually have like a Prime? Oh, okay. Well, have you ever had one? I've had one. Oh, okay. But no, it's, you can see, I think it's at the bottom where it says made by the prime team. So it was going to be KSI and Logan, but because I left just before the launch, they changed
Starting point is 00:17:13 it to the prime team. Yeah. So you have to fight your way back in or did you just get back in? No, no, no, no, no, no. They definitely were like, yo, we want you back in. We need this. Wow. Yeah. So, wow. That want you back and we need this. Wow. Yeah. So, wow, that's crazy.
Starting point is 00:17:27 You were that close. This close to being like, no to prime. Yeah. Wow. And what was it? Was it just a feeling where you like pray about it one night and you're like, I'm going to see how I feel tomorrow. We're like, you're just going to trust your instincts a little more.
Starting point is 00:17:40 Because that's crazy, dude. That's crazy to be because I've been close on little things where you're like, nothing like prime, but you know, different opportunities where like this doesn't feel right. And yeah, um, no, it was just, you know, there was just a few things that were happening and I was just like, ah, I wasn't too sure. And then once those things got rectified, I was there like, yeah, I'm all in, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:18:01 Wow. That's fucking incredible. Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. Wow. That's fucking incredible. Congratulations. Thank you. Thank you. Cause to then create a product that does so well, that's like, yeah, that's after you have some success, it feels like that's what everybody tries to get you to do. Do this toothpaste, do this, you know, yeah, yeah. So I get people wanting me to do everything. Yeah. It's just going to be like prime. It's just, you know, it's, it's going to be hard to replicate something like prime. Yeah. And why would you, yeah, I mean, it would be silly, but people are always trying
Starting point is 00:18:27 to get me like, yeah, do these knee braces. A lot of stuff for me is like, knee brace or like, um, pull up a knee brace if you can, brother, you guys have a mirror. Do you have bad knees? No, but it's just the kind of shit you get approached with, you know, being this movie, I look at these action knee braces, they were called. And I'm like, well, first of all, if somebody's in a knee brace, should they be action knee braces? Like they're already not doing it. Why would they come to you? I think, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:18:58 I think I'm on some email list or something, but, but I get hit up with a lot of this shit neck braces. Okay. Um, do you get into injuries a lot? No. I feel like something like that would be great for Jackass. Yes. That's a good call. Yeah. Like, okay. They get injured a lot. He is them selling a knee brace or a neck brace.
Starting point is 00:19:19 So I got to get a new agent or whatever, but yeah, I've had some pretty bad offers, but get a new agent or whatever. But yeah, I've had some pretty bad offers, but, um, what else was I thinking about, dude? Oh, uh, yeah, it's been interesting being over here. You know, I like, um, I like London way more than I thought I was going to. Okay. Like yesterday, we just got to walk around and just see what it was like. And what did you get recognized a lot? Yeah. You meet a lot of people here. Oh, sick. Where were people people asking you like, oh do something funny. Do you get that a lot as a comedian? I want to take photos, usually just photo or say something. Sometimes somebody wants to share like maybe they had an experience that you've talked about on podcasting because we talk about a lot of just
Starting point is 00:19:59 regular life stuff on here. And so sometimes you'll have people say, hey man, you know, this is an experience that was going on in my life and it was similar to yours and stuff. And sometimes that's the toughest part about popularity in some ways is you used to have more time for that kind of thing, but now you could run into somebody on every block and you could spend your whole day
Starting point is 00:20:18 kind of listening to someone's story. So you have to just try and manage your best, I think in dealing with that. Would you, would you say, I mean, this might be deep, but do you think popularity is a prison? Yeah. Oh, wow. Yeah. I think it's a, it's a responsibility.
Starting point is 00:20:38 It's interesting. It's kind of an escape room maybe. Okay. Um, because I think you can figure out how to manage it, but I think it surprises you. There's different levels of it. You're like, okay, people see me now and then it's kind of fun. And then there's times where I think it gets kind of scary. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Yeah. And I'm sure at your level, you get to the point where you almost, you have to fly private because you couldn't cause a scene somewhere. Well, it's just because it'd be easier. That's what I mean. Like for me, a lot of times I do things just to make my life as easy as possible because I can easily take an economy flight
Starting point is 00:21:16 left, right, and center. I probably will when I have a kid because I don't want them to think, oh, PJs are the norm. Like I wouldn't want them to think, oh, you know, PJs are the norm. Like I wouldn't want my child thinking, you know, all these crazy things that I do. Yeah, that kid's gonna be on a mule back. Well, yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:32 That fucking kid is taking this low way, brother. Yeah. Yeah, we're taking the bus. Yeah, we are, brother. We're gonna walk. The kid's gonna be like, why are all these people just staring at us all the time? Dad, why do I have this? Why am I in this wheelchair?
Starting point is 00:21:50 We're slowing it down, son. You can't go through it. But no, I think the popularity is interesting. Yeah, like, I mean, would you trade, if you could keep your finances, would you trade your popularity? Oh, would you trade, if you could keep your finances, would you trade your popularity? You think? Oh, a hundred percent. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:06 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. If I could just keep all the money I have and not be famous, I'd do that easily. Yeah. But it's crazy. Like you get a lot of people who have a lot of money want fame and they don't, I don't think they realize that it's a lot of responsibility because you have so many people that look up to you and as a human being, you're going to fuck up. So as soon as you fuck up, bro, the onslaught, the mob, it's just, it's so much to deal with and then should then have to rectify it and fix it and show the world that you are human
Starting point is 00:22:43 and that you're going to improve and learn from your mistakes, et cetera. Yeah, it's a lot, man. It goes, you know, I've gone through that so many times where I've messed up so many times because it's just, yeah. Once you had a product that was a bigger, because then it's almost a responsibility that your behavior could even affect the, that has to be a whole nother different thing. Yeah. Yeah. So like, imagine if prime was on the stock market and you know, I, I dunno, I like, I said something that just pissed off a load of people, a bunch of Arsenal fans or something. Well, if you pissed off a bunch of like, yeah, like, no, what? Like, no, I suppose.
Starting point is 00:23:22 So you do. Okay. Yeah. Like, yeah. A bunch of like Manchester United. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So yeah. Like that imagine they just plummet my stock because of it. Yeah. I have to be so careful. I have to be so like, Oh, everyone is great. And like, I have no real opinion. Yeah. Yeah. It's weird because you kind of trade a part of you. More of you gets traded away in a way. Yeah. Yeah. yeah. It's weird because you kind of trade a part of you. More of you gets traded away in a way. Yeah, yeah, exactly.
Starting point is 00:23:47 If that makes sense. And yeah, not trying to complain about things, but trying to see. It's interesting having a life where in your life you have some popularity or you have fame. It's just interesting to even see what it's like. Like, not that it's even if it's happening to you, it's just you're still like, it's just, it's interesting to be like, okay, this is what this is like. But don't get me wrong. There are pros as well. Like, if I, you know, let's say I want to go to a restaurant and it's fully booked, you know, I hit up my PA and all of a sudden
Starting point is 00:24:15 there's a slot. You know what I mean? Like that's the benefit of, you know, being, uh, having fame. Like it gives you opportunities, more opportunities. But then I guess if you have a load of money, you can just buy the restaurant and then it's always free. No matter what. Yeah, that's a good fight, dude. What else was I thinking about, man? I wanted to ask you,
Starting point is 00:24:47 you know, have haircuts. I know this is super random. Yeah. But, so do you have a guy that you always go to? No, I have a woman sometimes and then I'll cut my own hair too, depending on what kind of time of year it is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:00 In the fall, I'm more likely to let a woman, this lovely hair cutter lady I know cut it. In the spring, I tend more likely to let a woman, this lovely hair cutter lady I know cut it. In the spring, I tend to cut my own hair. You cut your own hair. Yeah, I was cutting my own, cut it, lift it, cut it. Why, you just, how'd you do that? Oh yeah, it's easy. You just kind of pull it straight, cut it.
Starting point is 00:25:22 And then you do the same as many places as you can. Surely it's a bit all over the place. Oh, it doesn't look great. But you've done it. You're up here, man. Yeah, and I enjoy it, because I'm the kind of guy who I'll be looking in the mirror, like, I need a haircut right now.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Okay. And so I'll want to get it together. Damn, it stressed me out. So basically, I have a guy that I always go to, but yeah, like always, his name's F one of the best barbers of all mine or all mankind. But I was in North Carolina and I decided like, fuck, my hair is fucked right now. I'm gonna get a haircut. And I just apparently, well, not apparently, I did get a barber in North Carolina and he fucked me up, man. Oh fuck man. Well, I don't know. Like, so normally
Starting point is 00:26:13 with my bandana, like you don't normally see this, but like it is just, it's a mess, bro. Like even at the back as well, I was talking to Steve, Steve was there like, bro, he fucked you up, man. Oh fuck. Like in the back and I was just like, man. So yeah, so much crime over there. So much black on black crime. Yeah, bro. I can't believe you did that to me, man. And it's just, yeah, he, he, he, he's there to ruin my life. So I have to wait for this grow out. Uh, and until then I'm just getting blasted. Everyone's there like, bro, your hairline's receding. Let it go.
Starting point is 00:26:50 Oh yeah. And I'm like, no, it's not. It's the barber. He's fucked me up, man. Just leave me alone. Long day. Just leave me alone. Yeah, bro.
Starting point is 00:26:59 My fan base is savage. Like they ride or die. Like they will protect me from Antarctica to fucking Poland. Yeah. Why Poland? Well, I was just trying to think of another place on the globe. Yeah. I wish I'd have picked a different one, but yeah, I just picked Poland. Yeah. So let's move on. Oh. But then you get some segments of my fan base that are into, for example, fan fiction. Yeah. Fan fiction, no, I'm not familiar with it.
Starting point is 00:27:35 So it's where your fan base creates scenarios for you. So for some reason, my scenarios are always me just doing sexual things with my friends. Oh yeah. Who are all men. Oh wow. Okay. So being gay or whatever. Yeah, it's okay.
Starting point is 00:27:57 I mean, people are, what you've never had fan fiction. I've never had, I've never, you've never had someone go, Oh yeah, check this out. Send it, send you a whole story of Theo Vaughn. Just- No, and it's just like a romantic story. Yeah, just ragdolling something or- And some man, am I in prison? What? No, it just, it could be anything.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Like one of your best friends. Oh God. Well, give me a- My best friend just got married, but I get, yeah. You shagging Bobby Lee. Oh, wow. That would be easy. I feel like he's, he's,
Starting point is 00:28:30 first of all, he's very easy to catch. He can't escape. He doesn't have any, 80% of his body is just kind of gristle and like kind of like mild joy and carbohydrates. I feel like I don't think he would be able to get away. So he'd be more like a pin cushion. He'd just be like, Oh, I was going then you've caught me. Yeah. He'd be like, Oh, you caught me. But he would wear a bra or something. Bobby is a very... I've actually worked with him. No way. I've been in a movie with him. What movie was it?
Starting point is 00:29:10 Lady in America. Oh, wow. You can get it on Netflix. Please don't watch it. It's terrible. It's terrible. Yeah. But he was, he was fantastic. Yeah, he's charming. Very funny. He's like the last scallop. Like he's almost like the... He kind of has a scallop look. He's like the William Wallace of scallops. You know, he's like the last scallop. Like he's almost like the one. He kind of has a scallop look. He's like the William Wallace of scallops, you know? He's like, like I feel like he has a very,
Starting point is 00:29:31 he's something you get at like a fancy Asian bistro. Like if you knew the maitre d' or whatever, you know? They'd open up the dish and he would just be sitting there in a little, you know, just like in a little bird bath. Slap him up. Yes. He's like the kind of guy I think that gets kind of railed in prison around the holidays. He's like kind of a seasonal treat.
Starting point is 00:29:55 After holidays, they're like, ah, nah. Don't feel like it anymore, man. Get over that. Yeah, that's why, at least till after Halloween. I don't feel like it anymore man. Yeah. Let's wait at least till after Halloween. But that's amazing, man. He's a, yeah, I love getting to be around him, man.
Starting point is 00:30:15 That's one thing that's been nice about like podcasting in the States is just so many different types of folks, you know? Even getting to come over here, man, getting to talk to you. We had Ed Sheeran came in the other day. Oh, wow. And Louie Thoreau is gonna come in. Oh, sick. How was Ed?
Starting point is 00:30:30 Pretty excited. Ed was great. Yeah, Ed is such a cool guy. He's a professional. Yeah, he's just been doing it for so long. He's just a damn, he's just like a nice, like a comfortable cloud on a sunny day. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You just if you had like a dinner with him, it'd
Starting point is 00:30:49 just be great. Everything's fine. Yeah. Yeah. The silverware, everything's going to be in the right spot. Recession going on, you know, that could be a war going on. It doesn't matter. Nope. Yeah. You could be like, yeah, like you could, and if you died right there, he would just start singing and then it's your funeral. You know, just with him, everything is possible, you know? Yeah, yeah. He's like the best musical instrument. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:13 But yeah, that guy's exceptional, man. Imagine a burglary at your home. You probably think it's nighttime and there's a burglar. What's he doing? He hasn't shaved in a while and he's got a crowbar and a knapsack and he's a burglar, what's he doing? He hasn't shaved in a while and he's got a crowbar and a knapsack and he's a tough guy or a strong woman. You know what I'm talking about, an ex trucker. And it's nighttime, right?

Starting point is 00:34:20 Yeah, he makes a lot of good music. Yeah, yeah. But yeah, it's been, it's yeah, it's been nice to be over here and just get to have an experience of what it's like. Well, are you in tune, I guess, with the UK YouTube scene? Not a ton. But I've followed over the years, like Roman Atwood, when that kind of started.
Starting point is 00:34:43 Remember when he was like a- UK YouTube scene. But no, no, he's not in it, but I was just, no, but I, I followed like the American YouTube. So no, sorry. Let me back up my wheelchair. All right. So would you know people like the Sidemen? The Sidemen. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:07 The Sidemen is a, it's like mentor. Who else is somebody in it? Some of the guys I've seen. What the fuck? You know, Sidemen mentor. Did you see his, um, the Suckerade performance? Oh, was that with sketch and like boys? Um, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:35:21 So that was better squads. Okay. So there was better squads. Okay. So there's a thing called soccer. Have you ever heard of it? Uh-uh. Okay. So it's like a charity event, exactly the same, but it, you know, there was a lot of promotion for Simon. He was basically like the poster boy for soccer. Bring him up. Yeah. Yeah. He was just everywhere. Let's get a peek at him.
Starting point is 00:35:42 Huh? Judge him. Well, Simon Minta. So he actually played in the last game. We should bring up his highlights. And did he do pretty swell? Well, we can watch. He was pretty good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:00 He's a very, very good footballer. When it comes to charity matches like that we've done, we've done Sidemen charity matches that get so many views, you know, left right center. He's always scoring left right center. Oh, he's the best. Yeah. He's insane. Always scoring hat tricks.
Starting point is 00:36:15 He scored at the halfway line at one point. That's you know, the football pitch, the middle part. This is him right here? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, he looks healthy as well. So if you type in, well, click. He's a pretty clean looking male, huh? It doesn't seem to be there.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Basically. So apparently he's good. He didn't do anything. So yeah, so he came on the pitch last 20 minutes and hardly touched the ball. Oh, why? Yeah, well, it's just because they didn't give him the ball. Yeah. Yeah, so he was a very good player, but he just, we didn't get to see much.
Starting point is 00:36:56 And do you guys, is Sidemen in a league or it's just occasional you put it together? No, it's, no, Sidemen is like a YouTube group. Right, it's a gang kind of. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Except we don't kill anyone. Right. Or sell drugs. But is there beef? We sell much. There has been beef. Like with who? Like Joe Joyce and those boys? No, no, no. Like the Travelers? You ever take on them? No. Well, I mean, I fought one of them. You fought one of the Travelers? Well, Tommy Fury. Oh yeah, that's right. But he's kind of like a fanciest traveler there is.
Starting point is 00:37:27 Yeah, what? Fancy traveler. I think he's definitely, he's the most traveled. Yeah, I mean, yeah, fair. But I'm talking about, you know what I'm talking about? Those videos you always see all the time. Bring up Joe Joyce and the travelers and them boys down there in Manchester, bub. up Joe Joyce and the travelers and them boys down there Manchester bub is Joe Joyce a traveler yeah Joe Joyce is a traveler as
Starting point is 00:37:50 in like the guy with the iron chin yeah you come on any I'm telling you oh you so she's been talking shit in here I didn't those guys in the park all the time sounds like... That's her cousin, Patrick McGinley. That's one of his. That's his young paedophile back from the Bugs of Ireland. Right, listen, you get no private fight. You accepted me challenged last night. He said you come box me in Bolton this morning. I've been here since half past seven, you dirty bug man's bastard.
Starting point is 00:38:16 Oh wow. I beat you, Barney. So get yourself out of fucking Appleby. What's your fucking breed? You've got 70, 80 men there. Oh my God. You guys, Prime should be sponsoring this. Yeah, yeah, get rid of that nuke today, bud've got 70 80 men there. Oh my god. You guys prime should be sponsored It's just families for years that have been fighting. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:42 And making these videos. Wow. Dude, did you see the guy who, have you ever been involved with these guys? Luckily, no. Yeah, I just tend to stay away from all of that. I feel like it's a lot of work. Oh, yeah, but that's an easy promo video.
Starting point is 00:39:01 I mean, that guy cut that in two, three minutes in a parking lot. But I don't know. No budget. Do guy cut that in two, three minutes in a parking lot. No budget. Do I need that in my life? I don't know. I mean, I just think if you started promoting that sort of thing, could that be the next thing? Well, I don't know. I think it'd be very weird if we start promoting that with Sidemen. That's true. But if it was Sidemen versus Trapp, like straight up real deal Joe Joyce grandchildren Trappers. I real deal Joe Joyce grandchildren. I'd be able to hold my own, but I feel like the others would fail tremendously.
Starting point is 00:39:30 I think it'd be interesting to watch though. Yeah. When you look at like, cause a lot of like celebrity fighting started, like Muhammad Ali did it a long time ago. I know. And then they had George Foreman. George Foreman did it. So it's, did you kind of get those ideas from that or was it just something you guys like that was a world you wanted to get into? Um, I think because of us just entering the world in general with the whole YouTuber thing, like me, find Joe Weller, then Logan Paul, et cetera. It just made sense to create our own organization, Misfits, where,
Starting point is 00:40:08 you know, I feel like the name is perfect for it. Misfits, it's just, it's different to everything and it's its own thing. And people just love it. It's just entertaining. We just make fights that people, you know, wanted to see for years happen, or we just make things like tag team fights happen, et cetera. We just, we don't care, bro. We just want to make it entertaining. Entertainment. Are you on the board that chooses the fights or how do you guys do it?
Starting point is 00:40:39 Um, not really. Like I normally approve of fights, but a lot of times Mams is in charge of that. So with me, I'm the one that actually does the fights. So as in like, I actually fight. Oh yeah. You fight. I know you fought. No, no, no. But as in like, I that that's more my forte as of now. And then when I take the batman and maybe I'll be more invested. But for now, Mams is just the guy who really sets the fights up and Mams is all like, uh, his, uh, small council. I see. Wow. And Mams is my manager. Got it. Yeah. Yeah. Um, when you see that Mike Perry's in this new fight for suddenly for me, I was way more excited.
Starting point is 00:41:23 Uh, I think you'd much rather fight an old man. It's just so much easier. Why would he fight my- That's so true. Yeah, why would he fight- Let me get back in this chair. Literally, bro. Bro, did you see the fight between Silver and-
Starting point is 00:41:41 What was that? Bro. What was that? It's, what was that? What was that? It's what was that? What was that? It was Patty cake. Well, it was, it was, it was, it was checking someone's pockets for their phone. That's what I mean. That's who Jake Paul fought. Like these are the people that Jay Paul fight. And I, that's why I'm like, why wouldn't he now go into a super hard fight? Well, at some point it has to be that if you,
Starting point is 00:42:06 cause he really pushes himself very hard that he's a boxer. No, he pushes himself as the legend killer. Oh, I see. That's the angle he's going. So he said like, I destroy all these legends when they're 50 because that's who I am. I'm Jake Paul. Da da da da da.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Slayer of senior citizens. That's his forte. He's like osteoporosis basically. So that's why like him fighting Mike Perry, it's like, nah, he's, Mike Perry is still in his prime. Mike Perry is a dog. Yeah bro, have you seen what he does? Bare knuckle?
Starting point is 00:42:44 Holy shit bro. He's had the best fights. Have you met Michael Venom Page before? Yeah, I trained with him. No, I love him. He's sick. Such a good fighter. He's so creative, dude. He's so cool. Especially his knockouts and everything. The way he moves.
Starting point is 00:43:00 He's so fun to watch. It's almost like he has extra necks inside of his neck. You know? Because he has like, it's almost like he has extra necks inside of his net. You know? Cause you'll like, he's like, you know, he just, it's like he's... What, a snake? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:14 He just got that. When you're watching him, it's like, you almost, I'll also be sitting there watching him and I'll start doing it, you know? It's just like, have you seen it? Yeah. It's, you don't want to talk about. He's like, he's got his own thing going on. His
Starting point is 00:43:32 own style. Yeah. Cause a lot of fighters, they're like, you know, it's just more squared up. He's like, I'm like, good. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh bro. It's crazy. With the neck. Well, he just like, you know, he can maybe, yeah, maybe I might have, I don't know what picture I might be watching on 16 nine or something. I just, I know I'm not really staring his neck. Yeah. I think I just see him like the length of him. I don't know. Okay. No. I mean, it's fair. Like, I don't know. This is going to turn into fan fiction. You were an MVP starts moving that neck all of a sudden. No, I'm a huge fan. That's been one of the neatest things I think about getting, like just becoming a UFC fan over the past few years, man. Have you been to the fights? Yeah, but I go to as many UFC things as I can. Well, in England anyway. I think it's amazing. Yeah, there's one coming up in Manchester. Yeah, it's very good. God, dude, it's so much fun, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:44:32 It's brutal. It's, actually, what was crazy for me was, you know, as a British guy, I went to the UFC in Miami, 299. Bro. Well, that was Poirier versus Ben Wasi. Yeah, yeah. So that fight was insane. Yeah, but oh my God, when Trump came in, bro, I didn't expect everyone to scream like that.
Starting point is 00:44:59 Bro, it was the loudest cheer of the whole night. Oh yeah. I didn't know people loved Trump like that. People love him. For us, we think everyone hates Trump. And he's like, ah, Trump bad, da da da da. I go over there, oh my God, it's like he's Jesus. He's like, yeah, he's kind of like a little bit of like a, yeah, like a, but Jesus, but yeah, people love him. When he comes in at
Starting point is 00:45:27 UFC, people love him, but the media doesn't like him in America. But the people are more and more like him. Oh, well, I'm not in the politics. I know fuck all, but- People used to hate him, but I think that sometimes the politics is interesting now. Yeah. Oh no, I'm too stupid for it. Yeah. As in like, imagine if I became- You will one day. Yeah. But, uh, I'm too stupid for it. Yeah. Yeah. As in like, imagine if I, if I became, you will one day, no, you'll become a politician. If I, if I became a prime minister, then it's over for the world, man. Well, for England anyway, for who specifically? Well, let's take them out by city. Let's go. I'll probably be like, okay. Um, okay, no more taxes.
Starting point is 00:46:07 I'll be like, no more taxes. No more taxes. Then all of a sudden NHS is just like, all right, now what guys? What do we do? We're struggling. We have no funding. And I'm like, oh shit.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Fuck. Instantly I'm in a hole. I, yeah. So for me, when it comes to policies, you're like, uh, unlimited prime for everyone. That might not be bad. No taxes, free prime. You could win on that campaign. That's what's crazy.
Starting point is 00:46:41 No taxes, free prime. That's what's crazy. That is why. Well, the craziest thing about Trump is like, he was always kind of a shady businessman. He was always, I think everybody regarded him as that. But Hollywood built him up because they had a show called the, um, the boss or something. The apprentice. I do remember. So Hollywood made him this big thing. And then they got pissed when he won president. They're like, what the fuck?
Starting point is 00:47:07 Then Hollywood was like, fuck him. But you built him. You made him. But now people I think are more honest. I just think it's getting weird. The guy we have is not doing good. And it's just a bit much over there. No, it's fine.
Starting point is 00:47:21 But the social media kind of controls everything it feels like these days. Yeah, social media has a lot of power in just in how people think I feel. Like, for example, even with Instagram, you can just, you know, let's say you're a woman, you go on Instagram and you're just seeing all these women like looking 10 out of 10, but they've all had worked on. And it's
Starting point is 00:47:46 just like the way to get to that level is you have to get worked on. Eventually your mind's going to think, Oh, maybe I need to get filler. Maybe I need to, you know, do, do this with my eyes or do this with my cheeks and stuff like that to get to that level. It's slow, but it slowly like takes over people's minds. And that's why you need to just, you know, definitely step back sometimes and just be like, nah, man, like I'm happy with how with myself, I'm happy with my way of thinking. But because it's just social media, it's just everywhere. And it's kind of like becoming everything. It's kind of getting harder and harder to do that.
Starting point is 00:48:22 Yeah. Oh, I, yeah, I would feel horrible Cause you'll see a lot of young girls getting lip filler. And you're just like- Yeah, but I hate it. I hate it. They can't even chew? I saw a woman that had soup and it just, unhaving soup. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:35 Like I've never seen fucking like, what are we doing here? Oh, like I've told my girlfriend like, please never in your life ever do anything. Every now and then she's like, oh, I'm thinking of, I'm like, no, don't you dare. You are naturally beautiful. Stop. Yeah, that's what we need. Yeah, bro.
Starting point is 00:48:57 And some of that is men. Men need to let women know. I think women are a reflection of the men in their lives. And I really believe that if we let women know, you are perfect, you are fine as you are, then they wouldn't live in this place where they always feel like they're having to adjust as well. But yeah, social media is crazy. Did you see John Shahidi? Do you know who that is?
Starting point is 00:49:22 No idea. So he created Happy Dad, right? With the Nelk Boys. So that group, John's a great guy. Wait, I might, could you bring him up? I might recognize him. But they just took away his Instagram was at John, J-O-H-N. At John.
Starting point is 00:49:42 He had at John. He had that. For four years. How the fuck did he get that? He woke up the other day and they had taken it away from him because they want to sell it because they think it's too marketable and they took it. I'm trying to think of why I recognize this guy. He's often with, um, like, uh, Kyle Forogard. He's, John's a really super creative guy. Okay. When he lost John, what Instagram just took it from him.
Starting point is 00:50:11 Yep. But can they do that? Instagram took it from him. Let's see, Instagram changed my username today to this bootleg name, underscore, underscore, underscore, underscore, John, underscore, underscore. Oh my, I mean, I guess technically is still John.
Starting point is 00:50:26 That's a good point. But no explanation, not sure why I even have the bootleg app, but Metta truly does not care about their users. Nobody there replies with reasoning. So he reached out like, how did you just take my name? Yeah. Because- Well, I mean, if they're just there,
Starting point is 00:50:45 like it's our platform, now what? What are you gonna do? What are you gonna do? Like, what are you gonna do if somebody says like, yeah, JJ, we don't like what you're saying anymore? Then, you know the meme where the guy just disappears? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:59 I'm out. Goes into the bushes? Oh yeah, I'm out. What can I do? But yeah, that's the thing. It's like, we don't have any, it's like, it's almost like we can write whatever we want, but it's like they own the paper kind of, you know? Yeah, that's, oh, that's a good analogy. So when they can fuck you like, well, what the fuck does this, all this even mean? If they can fucking, wow, it's just dirty. But yeah, they did
Starting point is 00:51:19 that to him. Apparently he had like, Trump came on Logan's podcast. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they mentioned John on there and the next day is when it happened. But they said it's people with short names, four letters or less. That's what apparently is an article somewhere. It's like four letters or less. They want to take those names like Tom, John. Wait, I've got KSI. Well, do you? When's the last time you checked? Oh, fuck. Oh, shit. This guy fucking woke up and was gone. Fuck. What would you do? We'd have to storm. What would they
Starting point is 00:51:54 give me underscore underscore underscore KSI? Yeah, maybe. What the hell? I don't know. God, that's alarming or KSI lube. you know? I mean, they could give you anything. That's unfair. I agree. But I guess they could, they could do whatever they want. They can do whatever they want. Do you think- What would you do?
Starting point is 00:52:13 Do you think Metta could just stop posting photos for you? Yeah, I'm sure they could eliminate you. Like imagine if Metta just decided to just add a dick pic. Yeah. It's not even over you, just a dick pic, just as your next post. And then they ban you for it. They frame you. Oh, totally.
Starting point is 00:52:34 Holy shit. Wow, dude, if that happened. Hopefully my buddy Jason, because I never set my own dick pics, but I would rent them from my buddy Jason, right? So for 10 bucks, he would let you use his dick, send it to somebody. Cause he's a really, you know, he's just that kind of guy. And so I probably spent 30 bucks fucking, um, wait, what giffing his wiener out.
Starting point is 00:53:01 Yeah. From him. Well, he had a decent wainer on him for one. And two, uh, it looked enough like my penis words. If somebody then actually you showed up like, you know, with the team who version of it, people aren't going to be that upset, you know? Wait, did it ever get leaked? No, not yet. And if it does, it's not mine. I call it, I call it bad. What? so would you like share them with your friends? Like, Oh yeah, bro, look, I have my dick big. Oh, no, no, I'm not trading mine. Oh, yeah. I have more of an artist kind of dick anyway. Like some people have more of a traditional wiener or whatever. Mine is just more of like art. It's almost like, um, it's built like
Starting point is 00:53:42 kind of one of the French Alps a little bit bring up one of the Alps one of the smaller Alps Or like a candy corn you have candy corns here at Halloween Bring up a candy corn, bro. Good day said it's like that. Yeah Yeah, it's been like one of those yeah, just like that it's kind of you ever seen that part of the rocket that falls back to space, you know? Oh, yeah. Okay. Oh, I imagine it gets bigger, right?
Starting point is 00:54:12 Well, all right. Imagine all you want, bro. Hey, it's fan fiction, man. We'll make it happen, dude. Fuck, man. It's more like the little engine that could, you know? You see people are like, it's kind of like the one that comes at the end of the race, but people are still there clapping, you know?
Starting point is 00:54:32 Even though they're already packing up the beverages and stuff. Oh, I've had that situation. So that's, yeah, oh yeah. Where I was like lost in a, I think it was a, it was either a 400 or 800 meter race. I was really unfit back in the day as a kid, uh, to the point where, um, do you, did you do cross country? Um, yeah, yeah, we ran some. Yeah. So like I would do cross country, but whenever there was a bush, I would like hide that to just avoid everyone and then come out at the end, just to pretend that I finished the race. God, you sound like a peeping Tom just kind of popping out of different bushes.
Starting point is 00:55:18 Well, luckily I was a child. So yeah, if I was this age then... Yeah, you were before your time. But, uh, so yeah, it was, I think it was, I must've been 800 because if it was 400, that's really sad. But, uh, uh, I remember I got halfway and I was like, I can't, I can't do it. I can't finish it. Cause I ended up walking. So I was just like, fuck, I'm just going to walk all the way to the end. And it got to a point where a teacher came out of nowhere, ran up to me and she was like, we're going to finish this together. I wanted to die. Honestly, that whole year of my life was one of the worst years of my life. And was it because you, Obviously that whole year of my life was one of the worst years of my life.
Starting point is 00:56:05 And was it because you just because of this teacher, this one teacher thought she was doing a good deed, but instead she ruined my life by forcing me to run with her. And she was like, you've got this, you can do it. You can do it. You're so close. And I was just laughing. I was there like, Oh God, this is embarrassing. Oh, it would have been better if I just walked by myself. I was just laughing. I was there like, oh God, this is embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:56:25 Why, it would have been better if I just walked by myself. Yeah, why have you come to try to be a good person? Yeah, why are you trying to be a good person? Yeah, fucking. Yeah, certain, they should outlaw good personing. Yeah. At certain times, you know? Like, let me suffer on my own merit here. Drop out of last day? How about a 4 p.m. late check out?

They asked me for money. I feel pretty Nigerian at that point. Yeah. But then, uh, yeah, I guess when I'm, I don't know, going to a private school, I feel pretty British.
Starting point is 01:00:55 Yeah. Yeah. That's British, huh? Yeah. I was, yeah. Like when I went to, because I went to a private school for secondary school, I felt pretty British. Yeah, yeah. Well, I see the kids, they're wearing suits and everything. Yep, yep, yep. It's really unbelievable. Yeah, I guess in America, you guys can just wear whatever,
Starting point is 01:01:14 right? Kids look like shit in America. I mean, they're drinking good prime. They look like fucking, dude. They look like anybody could have put them together. Yeah, yeah. At least here, they look a little bit haberdashed. Like somebody cared. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It just sounds fancy, doesn't it? Pabardashers, merchant tailors.
Starting point is 01:01:48 But do you eat at the long tables? Yeah, yeah. Wow. That must have been so much fun. We had cheese pots. Yeah, man, it was crazy. Like for lunch, we'd get servings. Just be like, oh, I'd like this. Oh, actually, this looks quite good.
Starting point is 01:02:00 Like we had options. Yeah, God, it's nice. Crazy, yeah. We had a kid that would always bring ants in from outside and he'd put them in his fucking pockets and like halfway through the next class, he'd have fucking ants all over him and he'd have to go to the nurse or whatever.
Starting point is 01:02:12 So he was always kind of like kind of cheating the system or whatever to get out of class, you know? But he was a fucking real kind of zookeeper of a boy, if you will, you know? You know what I'm talking about? Or just different types of kids growing up. Who else do we have? Bring somebody up.
Starting point is 01:02:29 Whoa, okay. Are we, yeah, we just had all types of, we had this kid who would bring ants in his, he would get all the ants, you know? So why? Just so he could get bit later and then he could tell the teacher. Where's he finding all these ants?
Starting point is 01:02:43 Outside, unlimited ants from God. It has had as many as you could want in the schoolyard. It wasn't, you know. Why are you just picking them up? Yeah, they're free, brother, yeah. Wow, okay. Did anyone try that with like bees? No, nothing like that.
Starting point is 01:02:59 You'd see crickets. A lot of times people would bring a bunch of crickets and let them loose in the class. And so they'd bounce around and people would be kind of a bit wild about it, I guess. Did you like learn anything in school? Like it sounded like-
Starting point is 01:03:10 We didn't, a lot of stuff. We had limited learning, I remember, was the name of our school, I think. And I remember they had like a map of America, right? And then above it, where Canada is, they didn't even say Canada, it just had a picture of a wolf chasing a boy.
Starting point is 01:03:27 That was it. And that was like, yeah, it was just limited knowledge. We learned about Christopher Columbus. We didn't learn a ton about the UK. Yeah. Well, I imagine Europe isn't even on the map for the United States. No, Miami was kind of as far as we would learn. But, um, sick. But yeah, America's gotten weird, man.
Starting point is 01:03:48 We might be sailing back over here soon. So keep the ports open. Well, I mean, have you seen the weather here, man? It's not that great. We'll take it. Um, we could probably, you could adjust it. They're doing cloud seating and stuff now, you know? Maybe that's what's happening in England because it's just always trash.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Like one minute it's sunny, the next is raining, then it's sunny again, then raining, then sunny, then raining. And this is all in one day. Yeah. Like what the hell? So it's really hard to dress for it. If you're, oh, that's for sure.
Starting point is 01:04:18 That's why I'm wearing this. Yeah. I'm there like, you know, normally I'll be wearing a t-shirt, wearing middle summer, but now I'm like, okay, like, should I, you know, be I'll be wearing a t-shirt when middle summer, but now I'm like, okay, like shy, you know, be prepared for rain. Yeah. Thunder storm snow, like in summer, like anything. Did you see, where do you go for vacation? Then if you're going in Europe, is there somewhere you like to go? Um, so I, I recently went to Japan. Oh wow. Japan was a huge like, like shift, culture shift.
Starting point is 01:04:46 Like I've been there before, but it was like this time I really like dug in and explored everything. Cause you took a break recently. Yeah. Is that when you went? Yeah, yeah. So I did like, I'd say like a six to eight month break to just really like relax and enjoy my life a little.
Starting point is 01:05:02 Cause I feel like I just been working quite a lot. Oh yeah. Just doing so much. So yeah, Japan was one of it. I was there for two weeks. I was like the longest holiday I've had in decades. Honestly. Did you feel like a big person there?
Starting point is 01:05:15 Kind of like a... Um, not really. Like, oh, what? As in like, oh, physically. Physically sized one. Oh, um, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yes, yeah, I felt pretty big. Because they're just so, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:30 Yeah, they're quite, I guess the smallest size. They're so kind. You almost could pick a Japanese person up and set them somewhere else and it seems like they would stay there where you put them. Yeah. You know, they're just so like, hospitable. They are so nice. Well, it's weird, like to the point point where there was one point where we were going to a restaurant, we ate
Starting point is 01:05:48 there and we, you know, paid the bill, we left and they would come out as in the chef and the owner would come out and start bowing while we were leaving. And we're just like, why have they done that? Like they have more people inside to serve, But they're just so polite, so genuine. And the bowing though, they bow, then you bow. But then since you bowed, they bow again. And so it really becomes like, you know, it's like watching a penguin's arms or whatever.
Starting point is 01:06:17 It just gets really bizarre, I think. Yeah, it's, they get kind of awkward if you try to like shake their hand. They're just, they don't know what to do. They freeze up real easy. Yeah. They're just, they kind of, they, they can get a little bit glitchy. I think. Yeah. A lot of glitching in the matrix. Um, what else was I going to ask you about? I'm trying to think where else I went to. I went to... Oh yeah, going to Japan is so rare. What was something that surprised you about it?
Starting point is 01:06:49 That surprised me? The love of porn. Oh wow. Yeah. There's like a whole department for it. You mean a department like at a grocery or something. Kind of, yeah. Like we went into this building and you know, it was full of like comics and manga and everything. And you can, you've got manga from all types of like Dragon Ball to, um, there's other mangas, but I'm such a Dragon Ball fan that I don't really care. But,
Starting point is 01:07:26 There's other mangas, but I'm such a Dragon Ball fan that I don't really care. But then there's an 18 plus section and it's funny they have it covered with like a bit of curtain. Yeah. And then, you know, there's no one there to check if you're 18 plus, but you can tell like it's a little like, Ooh, are you sure you want to go in here? Yeah. So yeah, you know, I was there with my girl. We just opened it up and it's just crazy. Like all types of crazy ass manga porn. Like I'm talking tentacle. I'm talking robot. I'm talking wheelchair probably. Yeah. What is manga? What does that mean? So manga is like comics. Okay. But so anime porn style. Yeah. Okay. Much like, um, yeah, there's one I always hear about.
Starting point is 01:08:13 Oh, wow. So it's all drawn porn. It's not. Yeah. So I remember when we walked in, there was this old guy who was furiously like looking for this one book. Like he already had like six in his hand and he's just there like speed mode, just looking for that one, that one that he hasn't got, that collection. And you could tell like he'd been used up. Like he'd been chugging.
Starting point is 01:08:44 Empty. Yeah, he'd been chugging. Empty. Yeah. He was just always, just any. God put the cork in him. Somebody call his mom, you know? Yeah. He was. It's sad when somebody just jerks off forever. Yeah. I feel like we all used to. Yeah. But some people have said, you know what? I'm going to keep doing it.
Starting point is 01:09:04 And I think at that point it gets a bit much, you know? Yeah. So I just got to, let me see, I think I'm 19 days off of pornography and masturbation right now. Wow. Congrats. Thanks man. It's the longest I've been. Okay. Explain to me, how have you got food blue balls? I have ejaculated by nature and by God just kind of touching me in my sleep or whatever, but I have not, but I haven't jerked myself. I haven't. That's free brother. No, no, no, that doesn't count. God touched me. Sometimes I would pray that God would touch me while I was sleeping, but I wasn't going to touch myself, you know, but it's just a human restraint, but no porn and no touching, no touching my own body.
Starting point is 01:09:56 19 days, man. For me, it's been good. Well, I feel like for me that's like, I think the longest I've gone is about a week, a week and a half. And then blue balls, bro. It just finishes me. I'm there like it hurts. I feel like I have period pain. Oh yeah. It is kind of, I guess you have period pain in your nuts.
Starting point is 01:10:18 It's that time of the month. Yeah. Screw this. Would you, would you think you'd ever make a sex tape? Do you think? No, I don't know. I think maybe- Did you ever think of it at one point? I think 10 years ago, I, there was part of me thinking, you know what?
Starting point is 01:10:33 I feel pretty confident. And then, uh, thank God I didn't. Yeah. Probably imagine. Thing is, I feel like men get away with it more than women. That's a good point. I don't know. Yeah. But I don't know if you could have done. I guess what Kim Kardashian kind of smashed it. Yeah, I guess they just had an art. What was that thing Ray J was talking about? I think with Kardashian, if you looked at it,
Starting point is 01:10:55 did it alter the direction of history? Oh wow. I, you know what? I think Kim Kardashian is so influential. I probably did. Like look how many women just like are influenced by her. Oh yeah. Like, bro, even I'm influenced by her. I bought skims underwear. No, really? What the fuck? Yeah. That's a lot. But bro, it's so comfortable. Like, yeah, but it's for, it's for like, it could be, I mean, there's a male section. Oh, there is. I didn't know that. You thought I was, I was like, why is JJ hiding his camel? No, there's like male underwear now. I didn't. So, and Bo is really comfortable. I didn't know that. But yeah, it's like what?
Starting point is 01:11:48 She's a billionaire. Like there's so many people. I agree, man. Who like look up to her. Kanye's good music was when they were together. Yeah. But they did start, the bad lip stuff was started by them. The lip filler.
Starting point is 01:12:02 Yeah. But that's what I mean. Influential. Yeah. It's true. It's great. So yeah, you know what? I can't agree. But that's what I mean. Influential. Yeah. It's great. So yeah. You know what? I can't agree with you that they have changed history. Did you, um, shoot? Did you actually like call a producer about a sex tape? You just thought about it?
Starting point is 01:12:16 Um, like how far down the road did you go? No, I'd say like, I, I made a video and I was like, if it gets this many likes likes then I'll do a sex tape and it has actually got that many likes but uh you know times have definitely changed yeah he's just I can't see it now yeah I wouldn't be good at having a sex tape I I don't think. I just wouldn't. Have you been close? No, I've filmed something with a girlfriend kind of thing, you know, but not like a couple cameras shoot, just like a couple of geeked up perverts on their phone. But that was a long time ago. Just amateur. Yeah, very amateur.
Starting point is 01:13:03 Well, I mean, that's a category. Yeah, that's true. It does very well. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Just amateur. Yeah, very amateur. Well, I mean, that's a category. Yeah, that's true. It does very well. Yeah. Yeah. I've been on that category before and pleased with some of the stuff they have on there. Have you ever been on JOI?
Starting point is 01:13:12 No, I haven't. Oh, okay. JOI? Yeah, I don't- JOI. What does, what does, it's, what does JOI mean? It's like, it's, I'm pretty sure she talks to you. Yeah, I haven't seen it.
Starting point is 01:13:26 And she's there like. JOI. Is it JOI? The most powerful schema description language and data validator for JavaScript, no. Okay, maybe not. Yeah, I haven't been on there. I think there's gonna, yeah, with that H,
Starting point is 01:13:44 I haven't even done the RV or whatever. The VR. Yeah, I haven't been on there. I think there's gonna, yeah, with that H, I haven't even done the RV or whatever. The VR. VR, yeah. I haven't done the VR. That could be quite interesting. Pornography, I haven't even used that. Have you ever used it? No, no.
Starting point is 01:13:55 Me neither. But I think it would be a really interesting experience. You know, I've read up that, is it, not AI, but AGI is around the corner. So we can get like robots, humanoid robots, just being able to do our chores, do our, you know, we're able to have conversations with them. Right. But the second somebody gets one, they're going to fuck it. You know, if there isn't a hole down there, how are you going to? People will put one in. People are disgusting. The second you get anybody like, hey, we give me some
Starting point is 01:14:32 cereal, get me some blowjob. Yeah. But what's the AI going to say? Yeah. Whatever you want. I'm tired. Not right now. I don't know. Yeah. Whatever you want. I'm tired. Not right now. That function isn't in my capacity. Or what if they mess up the things, you know, like what if they mix up one of the things like that would be it. You better weave. Want to make sure you don't get a cheap one because if you ask for a blow job and it starts Julian and a carrot or something, you're going to be in a tough spot. Yeah man. Well, yeah, look. Elon Musk, he's the price of Tesla. Optimus robot says everyone will want one.
Starting point is 01:15:11 I feel like everyone would want one. Yeah. Like I definitely would try it. Like imagine someone who's able to just do all the chores. You know, do the bed when I wake up or clean, do the washing, clean the floor. But what about this then? What if one day robots get actually sentient, right?
Starting point is 01:15:30 Okay. And they become as we are, will they be upset? Will they be like you enslaved those robots? Like you made them do your bidding. What if they just enjoy doing their job? Now that's true. What if they're just there like I I'm sentient or sentient. Sentient.
Starting point is 01:15:48 And they're just there like, ours is great. Thank you. Yeah. Yeah. You know, I love washing plates. God, that's great. Why is everyone always thinking of the bad situation? You're right.
Starting point is 01:16:00 There could be sentient beings that just want to do chores. Yeah. That's their favorite thing. There could be sentient beings that just want to do chores. That's their favorite thing. Like imagine them having to talk to us. They're like, oh, fuck that. Like, don't talk to me. Let me just do chores. Yeah, let me keep working.
Starting point is 01:16:14 Yeah. Mm, that's nice. You gotta get one. You can probably afford one as well. Probably, yeah, yeah. Bro, I'm so in. Like, I'm just seeing like how chat GPT is evolving. I'm looking at the Nvidia stock. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:16:32 I just looked at some looking like a red penis. Just up looking like a real Nigerian sex load. Just not going down. I want to show it so badly. Do you? I know, but it looks like it's like, could be like Apple just keeps going up. I feel like it just obliterate me. Yeah. But I don't know. Maybe you, I feel like you have to wait for like, I don't know, some, something bad to happen to do with AI. Like, I don't know if- Right, but what bad could happen? If a bad thing did happen, like,
Starting point is 01:17:09 an AI just became smart and said, all right, I'm gonna just hack everything. I'm just gonna hack your iCloud. Now I have your body's dick pic. Jason. Yeah, and it's just, it releases that. All of a sudden, the videos stop, just, he releases that all of a sudden. And if it is stopped just flaccid, that's a good point. What if AI started to be like, fuck everybody. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:33 I mean, and it started just sending emails to the other people didn't want it just decided. Well, imagine it was just, they just love trolling. Yeah. That would be, that would actually be low key hilarious. Just trolling. It must be like a good movie concept. It might be hard to pull off. Yeah. But yeah, if you had AI or a troller, that's what they chose to do. Did you troll when you were younger?
Starting point is 01:17:54 I didn't troll that much, I don't think. You know, I mean, at first they didn't even have the internet when I was a little kid, so you couldn't even, you just had to call somebody a name right in front of them. Oh. So you just had to be there in person. You had to show up and do it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:09 You had to put in the work. Oh, okay. What, you could send letter? Yeah, I guess you could. Yeah, you could do a letter maybe. Yeah, just a letter or a recall? Letter was kind of fun as well, because we had a lot of pedophiles and stuff in our area. And so we would often send letters to, you know, I'd send letters to my friends and say
Starting point is 01:18:23 they were from, and like my friend's dad would be like, why the fuck is this guy sending you a letter? You know, just like creating shit around the home or whatever. Kind of creating intrigue around the home. What do you feel like? Like, I mean, people are always saying like, what's next? Do you feel okay coming back from your break? Like, what do you do? You do you feel like invigorated?
Starting point is 01:18:43 Was it hard to because taking a break is big. I've thought for years I'm going to take a break and it's very hard to. Well, the thing, the scary thing is we've taken a break is if you step off the treadmill, do you think you'll be able to get back on it? Do you think you'll be as fit to get back on it? What do you think you'll just hop on and fall off? Yeah. you'll just hop on and fall off. Yeah. And that's for me. I feel like, uh, yeah, I'm at a point where I've like stepped off the treadmill before I'd say around 2017 where I took like a super long break and then came back and everything was all right. So I was
Starting point is 01:19:20 like, Oh, okay. Like I'm in a place now where I can take a break and it's okay. So I feel like a lot of like YouTubers or streamers or whatever, like always worried that they might not reach the same level they're at if they take a break. So they decide to never take a break. But then they go crazy. Like Fousey. Yeah. Yeah, bro. Fousey died at the mall or whatever. He went nuts, bro. But he's, but then they go crazy. Like Fousey. Yeah. Yeah. Bro. He went, he went
Starting point is 01:19:45 nuts, bro. But he's, he's gone nuts before. Right. He's done this and crashed down and then he's done this again and crashed down. So like it's, yeah, it's wild. And the pressure of those, like that's constant streaming. You weren't even at that. You weren't like that you're, you're, you're more of a vlogger. Right? Is that safe to say? Or what's the term? I mean, I know you do a lot of stuff. Yeah. I mean, nowadays I just sit in front of a camera and laugh. So that's, that's pretty much right. That's like, but it's infectious and people like it job description in terms of YouTube that it's that. Right. And then, but you didn't have to ever sit there like Kai Sanat or those guys where they're doing that seven hour stream.
Starting point is 01:20:25 I did used to stream. Oh, I didn't know that. Yeah, when I was younger. No, but like it's not that huge like part of my life. It was like I did it for about I'd say a year or so. Like I just stream games and stuff. Like this was 2012, 2013 when streaming wasn't really as big as it is now. So yeah, I was, you know, I did streaming, you know, I did YouTube videos, but I did everything.
Starting point is 01:20:51 Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you kind of have a, I'm like a mystery. I mean, you hit your own thing. Yeah. I'm definitely not Mr. Beast. Mr. Beast is on a completely different level, bro. Did you see him in North Carolina? Yeah. Yes. That That's why I went. Yeah. I went there for a YouTube, like, like those 50 YouTubers. And he put in a box and just chaos and only one could survive. Yeah, man. It was crazy. Different challenges left. I said, bro, you were competing against other people. Yeah. I was a menace, man. I was just there for me. My idea was I'm going to demon. Well, I kind of like I'm naturally just a nice guy anyway. So like, you know, I went to hi everyone. It was cool to see old faces left, right and center. But then, you know, as soon as the
Starting point is 01:21:37 cameras are on, I'm there, like, I'm just going to be content. My goal is just content. Like people trying to sleep, I'm shouting in their ears like, yo, no sleeping tonight, baby. Wake the fuck up. Yeah. Yeah, bro. And the thing is because everyone there is a little timid and everyone's a bit standoffish, a bit reserved because you know, everyone's a big YouTube in their own right. Like people have got 20 million, 30 million, 40 million, 50 million subscribers left, right and center. And what I've got on one channel, 20 something and then another like 16 something, whatever. But I don't give a shit bro.
Starting point is 01:22:14 Like for me, I'm there. Like I'm just there here to just have a good fucking time. Like, like obviously, you know, some people really wanted to win like the 1 million. It was a grand prize of one million. But for me, bro, I was just there, like I'm here just to have a good fucking time. Where the competition, was it fun? Is it out yet?
Starting point is 01:22:33 It's not out yet, so I can't explain, yeah, the thing, the challenges, but yeah, it was definitely cool to see different YouTubers. Was it inspiring to see MrBeast create something like that? Well, like he showed me around Greenville, different YouTubers. Was it inspiring to see MrBeast create something like that? Well, like he showed me around Greenville, like the different areas that he's bought just for videos. Insane, bro. But man just spent like, I don't even know I can say this, but he spent like millions on just a bit of land for one video, just like that. And it's just
Starting point is 01:23:06 like, he's happy just to do that. And then he, the money that he makes from that puts it into another video. Wow. He just like, he doesn't care about profit. He's there like reinvest, reinvest, reinvest. And it's just incredible. But he pretty much like the only reason you go to North Carolina is for MrBeast. That's like he runs it. And I was like, it's such a smart model because the most interesting thing in that area is working for MrBeast. So he's so crazy. So he's always got everyone there like gagging to work for him because it's like, are you gonna work at, I don't know, McDonald's or are you gonna try
Starting point is 01:23:48 and work for Mr. Beast? You're always gonna always go for Mr. Beast. Do you wanna be a politician or do you wanna work for Mr. Beast? Like I wanna work for Mr. Beast. Bro, like, do you wanna be a teacher? Fuck that. I would like to teach Mr. Beast.
Starting point is 01:24:02 I wanna, yeah. I would like to be at Mr. Beast Jr. High. Exactly bro. Did you, is it inspiring kind of, or do you feel like it's a different... No, not at all. I went in there and if anything, it made me go, yeah, I will never reach this level, but I was okay with that. Yeah. That's kind of the point where I was at. Yeah. Because that's interesting because sometimes in life you meet people or you meet like people who are doing things above you or differently than you and you say, Oh, I could do this. Yes. So, but then sometimes that's cool to hear that you also sometimes meet people and you're like, Oh, this is amazing, but this is not my thing.
Starting point is 01:24:35 Yeah. Yeah. This I could never like, like, I didn't think, wow, okay. Now I want to be up there with one of the biggest YouTube is in the world. I'm there like, no, fuck that. I, because especially with what he's put into it, nah man, shit's long. Like I already have been doing so much for so long. So like for him, like he's going on to that next level. Like I feel like I'm in a good space with, you know, the Sidemen. I've got a bit of music here, boxing here, got my own little YouTube here. If I want to stream every now and then I can. It's nice. You know, I'm still able to do some of my girlfriend, still able to do stuff with my friends and family. Like I'm, I'm able to have a nice balanced life. Him, it's just work. He lives, breathes, sleeps, work. That's a lot. But like, that's why he's the most subscribed
Starting point is 01:25:26 YouTube in the world. Yeah, it's interesting what it takes, huh? Yeah, and I'm there like, fuck that. Yeah. Yeah, fuck that, bro. I'm good. I don't need to do that. Put me in my wheelchair, homie.
Starting point is 01:25:40 I'll be fine. JJ, thanks so much, man. Yeah, I know, my pleasure, bro. For coming and hanging out, man, and just making me feel welcome in your country. It's really cool. Um, JJ, thanks so much, man. Yeah, I know my pleasure for coming and hanging out, man. And just making me feel welcome in your country. It's really cool. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And yet thanks for starting like the celebrity boxing and just like, that's been a something, especially throughout pandemic. I think it gave a lot of people some weird thing to like, yeah, just cheer for, be against or whatever. Just, I've got a fight coming up where I'm fighting two people at the same
Starting point is 01:26:05 time. I'd say, uh, well, it's a tight team. Okay. Yeah. August 31st. Yeah. And how do you feel about it? Uh, I feel pretty confident. I feel pretty good. Yeah. I mean, I'm seeing it as like a warmup to hopefully fight. I mean, a con end of the year. Why? Yeah. But, uh, with this, it's just like, so these two guys, Slim and A.T. have been like top of their top of the league when it comes to misfits. Like they've pretty much been most of their opponents. Slim has never lost, et cetera. So, you know, for me to fight not one, but two of them, uh, it's going to be a good challenge. So they can tag each other in whenever they want. Yeah. tag in and tag out whenever they want.
Starting point is 01:26:45 And what if one of them gets knocked out, then you still have to knock the other one out? Yes. Oh damn, bro. Wow. It's sick. Fuck, it's exciting. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:26:54 So I guess that's what we're missing. That's what we want. We want it to be exciting. We want people to be like, oh, this is not like normal boxing. Yeah. Fuck it, I love it. And everything evolves.
Starting point is 01:27:04 That's the thing. It's like, sometimes we get stuck in tradition. It's like, oh, I don't want things to change. Yeah. I fuck, fuck it. I love it. And everything evolves. That's the thing. It's like, sometimes we get stuck in tradition. It's like, I want, I don't want things to change. I want to think, but then everything has always evolved. Right. And it's just the way that things always have been. Oh, I mean, look, look at radio.
Starting point is 01:27:16 You know, it was radio was like, Oh fuck TV, man. It's all about the radio. Then TV came through, smashed it. Now then it was the internet and TV were like, oh, the fuck's the internet? It's not going to do anything. Boom. The internet is in your face. Next up AI is taking over, bro. Humanoids. They're just going to come through, bro. Smash through your door. There's nothing you can do. I'm going to stay upstairs then if they come. I just don't.
Starting point is 01:27:46 I don't want to. I'm just going to stand by the window and just button my button. How cool would it be? I know it's going back to the whole humanoid thing, but it just fascinates me because the idea of like space travel like becomes a thing. Like imagine we can just take with AI. You mean, oh, because it'll tell us how to do it. Well, no, no, I was thinking more taking a humanoid AI and just sending it off.
Starting point is 01:28:14 Oh, like it can go to Mars, right? We have like practice humans then to give a crash test dummy that can actually fucking give you a ring back and let you know what's going on What's going on you good? What's up with your systems and everything? Hey, what's your sister up to? Because people are perverts dude the second the guy reports any information from Mars you like hey, where's your sister? second the guy reports any information from Mars, you're like, Hey, where's your sister? But no, you're right, dude. We won't even have to be the aliens. We'll just create them. Yes. And then we'd be able to like just conquer different planets.
Starting point is 01:28:58 What about, so if certain countries get the robots and the robots will fight the wars for them. Oh shit. Yeah. But then, but then how would that work? Then it was just right. Nobody would win really. Yeah. It just, but it would be a whole new league of sports though. Well, would you, uh, last point is cause I was talking to my girlfriend about this is having sex with a humanoid cheating.
Starting point is 01:29:25 No way. So she was like, well, it is, but then I'm there like, oh, so then you consider a humanoid robot as human. Hmm. It would have to depend on how human, if it puts its makeup on, then I would say yes. What? But if it just kind of stands there and is like, let's do it or whatever, then I would say no. How would you feel if you had your girl? Oh, that's not fair. And she was just getting destroyed by the big black robot. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:02 He could be fucking great. Now even we have to worry about the black robot. Yeah. He fucking... Great. Now even we have to worry about the black robots. That's the most messed up part. It's like we now have to worry even the black robots are taking our women, dude. God. Yeah, imagine you come home and you're sitting there and like three robot dudes come and just sit. You're like, what? I thought we had a date night.
Starting point is 01:30:27 Like we do JJ, man. Thank you so much, dude, for all the years of entertainment district and also spending time with me, man. Congratulations, dude. I'm just, I think it's really inspirational to just see what you do and just your attitude to take breaks and to just be transparent about some of the stuff that goes on. It's important because, um, a lot of people are in this space now and in this world because it's the world we live in.
Starting point is 01:30:49 And they want to be able to learn from people that are willing to share honestly about what goes on. Well, and likewise, man, like, you know, I've seen you come up. It's been phenomenal, man. Like the way, you know, you just, I think for me, I saw a lot of your stuff just on TikTok. Just how fucking random you are. It was absolutely amazing to experience it in real life. Just the random things you say, just out thin air. It's hilarious. Well, thanks dude. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:31:21 I used to feel more creative. Did you ever used to feel more creative? Yes. Yeah. I feel like, isn't that weird? Yeah. It's just, I don't know. I don't know why it's just, or maybe, maybe we're still as creative, but we have to just churn out more. Yeah. Maybe that's it. Because there's just so people just want more and more content all the time. Oh, even three years ago, it seemed like if you put out a really neat clip, it lived longer. Now it's like a week. If that, if that, yeah, maybe even a day.
Starting point is 01:31:53 People have forgotten you could murder, but nobody cares. Four days later, you could murder someone. You can then make another clip that says you were not convicted and nobody, and people think you're not a murderer now. Which you've made it all. It's crazy though. I feel like a policeman would still remember that. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 01:32:12 Probably. So you're right about that. Um, dude, best of luck in the fight August 31st. Yeah, yeah bro. Okay, great. And that's streaming on Misfits? That is on Misfits, yes. Okay, great man.
Starting point is 01:32:22 And that's going to be, where's it taking place at? Uh, Dublin. Oh yeah. Yeah, yeah. Mental. Right. That's going to be crazy. I can't wait to be at the free arena. Apparently such a sick stadium. Yeah. Oh, arena. Should I say? Um, awesome man. Jay, thank you so much for your time, brother. Sweet. Cheers, Ben. Do I just leave now or we can just see? I mean, I think we can, we just can be done whenever I just, I? Or we can just, yeah, I mean, I think we just can be done whenever. I just am really... Well, I mean, I literally just walked in and there was no warm up or anything. Yeah, that's how the robots do it. It's just raw, bro. Hey, look, I might be one of those human...
Starting point is 01:32:55 Oh, fuck. God, I would hate that though. Imagine you get home and the robot wants to fuck and you're like, oh, give me a few minutes and it's just chasing you around the house. What would you do? Like... You'd have to fuck and you're like, ah, give me a few minutes. And it's just chasing you around the house. What would you do? Like you'd have to fuck it. Because you can't like, you can't say no. Yeah, it'll rip a door off.
Starting point is 01:33:13 Yeah, bro. It's like, the fuck is this? Yeah. What do you mean? Yeah. We're fucking. We're fucking. It's just short circuits.
Starting point is 01:33:23 We're fucking. More soup. Wait, so. We're fucking. When would it short circuits. We're fucking. More soup. We're fucking. When would it stop? I don't know. Maybe when the battery's down, I guess. So it could just go on forever. What if you try to turn off your phone, but your phone dies or something? And you set it to heavy fucking. All right. We should stop.
Starting point is 01:33:43 Yeah, I think we're done, man. Cheers, man. Now I'm just floating on the breeze and I feel I'm falling like these leaves. I must be cornerstone. Oh, but when I reach that ground, I'll share this peace of mind I found. I can feel it in my bones, but it's gonna take me to the top.
