Yeah, which are three wild hunt I do I actually I was one of those douchebags who watched the show not knowing anything about the fucking game That's okay. You're still enjoying something who gives a fuck imagine imagine just enjoying things. No fun. This is the internet. Fuck you the books were the games uh if you if
Starting point is 00:02:26 you realize there's like probably at a loss you're like where is the show taking place it's the books it's the original books this is the first time that they're kind it's i'm not liking this season of which i'll be a fucking straight honest with heard that i didn't hate the first episode huh i didn't hate the first episode of season three. How many are out now? Still just one, right? Yep. Oh. No, there's four episodes right now. What?
Starting point is 00:02:50 It's Netflix. They do the full drop. I thought they were doing a weekly. No, Netflix drops it. Bro, I don't know what day of the week it is. It's 4th of July hour. Never mind. I'm going to hold my opinions about the show because I got I finished the first part
Starting point is 00:03:05 the second part of the first oh so they're doing like a stranger thing like drop half now okay okay maybe that's what I thought they've switched the story completely I see why Henry fucking left they deviated in his last few ones
Starting point is 00:03:17 they Big H I got you they've changed the characters I love how you pointed to the off camera Henry Cavill stand-up. He's our producer, actually. Henry's just back there. We have Henry Cavill. I would love it if you
Starting point is 00:03:32 could actually find a way to con that into his IMDB profile. He's the executive producer of the Unsubscribe podcast. You just give him producer credits on everything. Oh, I fucking love it. That'd be so good. Somebody out there knows how to do that make that happen random internet stranger and we will not pay you we'll give you a shout out on that was like the fall that was like the fallout new vegas like the the unknown stranger perk or whatever we're like
Starting point is 00:03:56 the guy'll just come out of nowhere and help you out and just fucking kill somebody holy shit yeah what i forgot about i play video games know, but I forget every time. I thought you just built guns and that's it. I'm not even good at that. Well, you're kind of good at it. Your team's pretty good at it. They're pretty great. They're great at it.
Starting point is 00:04:16 AK-51, ha ha, fuck you. That's why you hire autistic people. Because they don't complain about being, oh, what? What? They don't complain about beating oh what what they don't complain about anything they're just over here sitting working on guns and you can get tax credits yes it's the new shirt
Starting point is 00:04:38 can we just get a shirt that says tax write-off yeah i love autism and then like small characters tax write-offs because everyone needs a job yeah no no everyone does not need a job especially whoever's cleaning the fucking ice cream machines at mcdonald's oh yeah what happened so uh guys there's been a huge grimace birthday is this the first year? I've never seen this until. I've never heard of this ever. I think it started as a TikTok trend. Go figure.
Starting point is 00:05:10 And now it's awful. It's dark. It's like, I really think the whole thing started in collaboration with McDonald's. Like, this was like their fifth gen post-irony fucking internet marketing attempt. And it was so cringe at the beginning. And it really hasn't gotten better I don't think I've seen a single one that's made me laugh dude
Starting point is 00:05:29 I like when they go really dark I want to see Meat Canyon do it yes you know he's going to I think he made a twitter post saying he wanted to get involved in it so I'm pretty sure he did I hope because right now he's working on the ukulele apology oh I saw that man i see his
Starting point is 00:05:46 fucking second channel video breaking that down was fantastic oh so seen it have you seen the ukulele apology okay yeah i watch it on stream no oh god no oh it's so good it's just straight up man if i got allegations against child grooming the first thing i'm gonna be is not be like you're gonna admit to it no no fuck off i'm like no no nope fuck off i would never do that like i would be very straight and then she starts this you're gonna be very straight no i'm not straight i haven't seen you in a minute i'm not gonna lie i know it's a little sad i know you have the pink phone pink drink could use a pink dress you missed the

Starting point is 00:07:17 There you go. A year with no election. Build a thousand bridges. Yep. Nobody calls you a bridge builder. I'll suck one dick. So the Witcher. I was literally about to say, how far are you on the Witcher?
Starting point is 00:07:37 So I've gone through Novigrad. I've gotten to Skellige. I'm past Skellige now. Okay. Only thing I gotta know. What's up? How'd you resolve the bloody Baron so I did help him and and cured the curse and all that shit Oh what hang himself no it's a wife oh the wife kills herself life kill
Starting point is 00:07:56 herself did you go back to visit it after oh yeah you have to go back oh well cuz I went yeah I went to the swamp and everything where we found the wife and everything and he like the wife and everything. And he like took her to a healer or whatever the fuck. No, I haven't gotten that far. Did you talk to the tree yet? Yeah. Oh, God.
Starting point is 00:08:12 Did you see the aftermath yet? I don't think so. Just go back. Yeah, go back. Go back and visit. There's some of those. I forget. Like some of those, like you could just go back to other quests you've done and then something like either really charming and nice or something really horrifically fucked has happened.
Starting point is 00:08:26 Very horrific. Something very horrific has happened. Yeah, sweet. I forgot about that. You're like, ah, I did a good deed. And then you go back. It's like famine has destroyed this entire city and everyone's dead. And you're like, oh, God.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Huh? But I just stabbed a tree. I thought the tree was a good guy. Was it a bad guy? I don't even know. You just, everything dies in that game. That's what I thought the tree was a good guy. Was it a bad guy? I don't even know. You just, everything dies in that game. That's what I love about it.
Starting point is 00:08:49 It is just. It is very, it's just good. They just killed it, man, in the expansions. When you get to the expansions. Yeah, or the blood and wine. Blood and wine and the, fuck, I can't think of the third one. The big one. I've got all of those. Oh, they're fucking massive, though.
Starting point is 00:09:04 Well, because it started trying to get me to do those quests quests and it was like the red skull appears or it's like he Will die immediately. Don't go there. Don't go there But I'm already to the part where it's like gather allies for I think I think I'm on like I'm about to finish the main Plotline. Yeah, okay. Oh never I choose to anyway, cuz you're in Skellige right now doing I'm Pascal ago I'm back to Novigrad, like finding allies and shit, like Triss and whatnot. My favorite part of that is like, thank you for saving me and doing all of this.
Starting point is 00:09:32 We owe you our life. Here is a family heirloom sword that's been handed to generations, a thousand years. And you're like- Yeah, exactly. You take it to the store, you're like, five gold.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Okay. You're like, the stats suck on this piece of shit. Or you're just like, wow. Oh, fuck. You take it to the store. You're like five gold. Okay Like the stats suck on this piece of shit. Wow. Wow, man. I shits too heavy Just getting a river How was like great weapons do you think like in real life you go back to like fucking Vikings and shit? They're like a family everyone's like yeah, my sword is sharper though. They just throw it in the marsh We find it a millennia later and we're like whoa my god. This is great. It was like trash dude Yeah, why is it in the swamp? I will treasure it always Fuck the balance sucks ass
Starting point is 00:10:22 Garbage sharp just throw it in the swamp and we find it. We're like, ooh. Of course, you swamp people thought this was rad. Fuck you. Oh, how are you doing? Oh, man. So the ending determines on certain choices of, did you look up those choices?
Starting point is 00:10:37 I haven't. I'm raw dogging it. Yes. Good. Yeah, I'm just going in blind. The only time I'll Google is when, like, I could tell something's about to be, like, a major thing, and I don't want to accidentally,
Starting point is 00:10:47 because sometimes the dialogue will fuck you in that game. Or, like, you'll accidentally say something that you thought is totally benign, and then it's like that person, like, tries to kill you and never talks to you again. Yeah, that's how My Witcher ended. I got the worst ending possible. I was like, I'm answering everything I think right,
Starting point is 00:11:03 and then it's like, everyone died. Yeah, and that's sad ending what did i get the worst ending google you got the worst ending i fucking suck at video games there's a dialogue there's like the the cyberpunk ending one of them is like that where like there's like a hidden ending or not a hidden ending it's just like every ending that you can choose before you go in it's like the fine allies which one yeah or whatever there's just one where you turn before you go in, it's like the fine allies, which one you find or whatever. There's just one where you turn a gun on yourself and it just ends the game. Like legitimately you're like,
Starting point is 00:11:31 nah, I want to do this on my terms. Keanu Reeves is like, all right, man, if that's what you want to do, and it just cuts to credits. I just picture a time-lapse.

I don't want to hear shit about getting punched in the face by you like So how's training with you I going I'm getting punched in the fucking face He's just fucking annoying dude, it's like fucking his movements are so good that like when he wants to it's just put his other tax credit
Starting point is 00:15:53 And boxing Where I thought... And then I popped out the vagina. I swear I thought you said racism. I thought I did too. Racing. Racing is what you said. Kiss him, boxing, a little bit of racism. Wee. Hey, what's up?
Starting point is 00:16:17 I hate Mexi... Damn it. God, no. That was a monkey spa, I wish. Yeah, sure, I can do that for you, but I'm going to make you two minorities. Why, God? I mean, technically, one's not really a minority anymore.
Starting point is 00:16:34 Well, not in Texas. God damn it. Well, I guess technically neither are minorities in the world. Well, yeah. From a certain point of view. The Asians. So now certain point of view. The Asians. So now you're learning boxing. Sparring, if anyone's never sparred,
Starting point is 00:16:51 like your street fights, you can be like, dude, I could beat his ass. If you've never sparred, boxed, it is a different game when you're fighting somebody that kind of knows what they're doing. It's demoralizing. A lot of the times I will agree with that oh they move quick why do they not blink yeah and it's also it's it's scary too when somebody knows exactly what they're doing and there's no like frustration in their face
Starting point is 00:17:16 there's no you know unpredict it's just 100 like it's like you're fighting a machine it's like oh fuck i'm not there yet and they are this is uh and i keep relating everything back i feel like a fucking dork but like so much relates back to like combat mechanics and video games yeah because it's like if while we're trading hits sometimes i'm like oh fuck well i i felt how mine connected because i hit you in the face but i didn't hit you very hard and you just really hurt my fucking nose. Like, I'm losing health every hit faster than you are. And this is not a sustainable plan.
Starting point is 00:17:55 We got to change up our tactics here. Real quick, before we go more into the boxing thing, fucking explain what's going on. Jesus, you're fighting with Happy Punch promo? Yeah uh yeah so it's it's with uh misfits uh zero eight yeah okay misfits that's right yeah so um yeah i've been talking with keem and uh i originally challenged uh somebody to a boxing match he backed out and so we were looking for an opponent and then uh the so my my fighter that we actually agreed to like you know the guy who actually stepped up yeah and agreed to fight me was uh action man right action seven man whatever sorry i don't know never met the fucking guy but he wanted to fight me so i'm like okay cool he had
Starting point is 00:18:36 the balls can we say who you backed out who didn't want to fight you. Yeah. That story is fucking hilarious to me. Yeah. Let's do it, Brandon. Go. So I challenged Boy Boy, who is one of the Australians that came over for the, like during the I did a thing video. Yeah. Yeah. That piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:18:54 Kind of did a fucking dirty. And then on the, on his video specifically, he released a video like a year later. Yeah. That was, I mean, I will say this.
Starting point is 00:19:02 He was a little bit more complimentary to me because I think he knew, like, cause I did a response video to the first one. Yeah. It's like, I'll swing back, you know, and That was, I mean, I will say this. He, he was a little bit more complimentary to me cause I think he knew like, cause I did a response video to the first one. Yeah. It's like, I'll swing back, you know, and I'm,
Starting point is 00:19:09 I'm, I'm, I have more following. So I'm like, I will, I will tell the truth. I will tell the truth if you don't. And so he,
Starting point is 00:19:15 he, you know what? He put me in my own words and he didn't really snipe me out of context, but he did do fucking Cody dirty. Like he, he edited a lot of shit out of context and like made it sound like he was defending, uh, saying cops were doing good shoots when they weren't like sort of thing. It was it was not cool.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Yeah. And so I challenged him and because I knew he was training. He had like three months of training already because he was going to be he was trying to train for one of the creator clashes. Oh, yeah. And I'm like, I don't care if he's that training. That's fine. Like, I'll go on. I don't give a shit. I'll just train harder and then uh he said he wanted a certain amount of money it was a lot
Starting point is 00:19:49 of money and what'd you do brad this is my favorite part he well he was like i will i will do the fight but i want this amount of money to fight brandon right yeah he wanted it was it was a good bit of money it was like 30 grand yeah and there was, I don't know if I want to get into like specific numbers because I don't know if I can. Yeah. But it was more than he was going to get paid. Yeah. And I flat out, and then Keem basically came back to me. He's like, ah, this guy's not really fucking serious.
Starting point is 00:20:16 He wants this much money. Like, whatever. I said, I will do this for no money. Give my money to him. And then I'm sure we can come up with the rest via sponsors because I just really want to do this fight. And he heard that and all of a sudden his head didn't feel so good
Starting point is 00:20:31 and he didn't think he could fight. He had a tummy wummy ache. Yeah, it was like the grown up version of a tummy ache. He did actually have a concussion or something like that a year and a half ago or something. Concussions? A year and a half ago. Man, I'd box you, Brandon. But I had a blast fucking 12 years ago when I grabbed.
Starting point is 00:20:50 Not feeling, you know, gotta be safe. Yeah, as it turns out... Well, see, I just think you're playing it safe, personally. Because, you know, those dark spots in your brain where there's no electricity now? There's a lot of those. Too much electricity can kill you. Gee, we're good then.
Starting point is 00:21:04 You're just playing it safe, I think. You know. Why am I in the ring? My dark spot failed me! Guys, this O-stroke is just my dark spot. It's fine. It's just my dark spot. Texas power grid? No, that's my brain. You just look at a map of Texas when there's an
Starting point is 00:21:24 outage like i feel you bud i get it man high five not to be confused with the other kind of so he backed out which is fucking fantastic i i think that's such i love that you were just like somebody's character take my share of the fight because that's what you said because i i don't want i'm not doing this for the money i make enough like i'm not worried about it uh i was doing this legitimately as an excuse to to dedicate get in shape i've been pretty i've been pretty much this is my first drink in a long fucking time like i've been almost dead sober for
Starting point is 00:22:03 five weeks now. Yeah. Something like that. Like it's, it's been crazy. He's doing really fucking good. I was super proud. I've had like a couple of cheat days.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Like if I'm on planes. You know my favorite thing, the amount of times somebody's come on this podcast and said, yeah, I've been sober for like a month for like two months. And then they drink. And then they spill it on the table. You know, it's,
Starting point is 00:22:22 you know, it's what the table's here for. You know, admin broke mid fucking podcast. He's like, well, if you call my life and she says yes i'll do it can admin drink she's like yeah it's fine if i could have a cheat day too he's like yep he turned away put the mask up at that time. He's like, Aaron, no. Hit pause on whatever you're listening to and hit play on your next adventure. Stay three nights this summer at Best Western and get $50 off a future stay.

He's one of my favorite people. Dude, he's fucking just copy. He's so beautiful. It's frustrating. He's a handsome man. Aaron's a good boy. I love him. He's one of my favorite people. Dude, he's fucking just copy. So beautiful.
Starting point is 00:23:06 It's frustrating. He's a handsome man. He's so fucking handsome. He's such a good dude. Why do I gotta be the ginger? Did the AC just decide to stop? No, it's back on. Oh.
Starting point is 00:23:18 Is it? Very bad. Like, it's... Yeah, you're sweating. I know. I can feel I'm sweating. And then after a day of fucking boxing we boxed on fourth of july it's four to july 1 p.m we were fighting at one yeah we were
Starting point is 00:23:32 fighting at one until noon my bad it was i texted you after that but you're looking you're just like oh 1 p.m oh i wonder what the boys are up to meanwhile you look good today like i did say that he texted me he said you were you were doing great boxing so i was like i was yeah i'm finally getting through to like we're throwing combos regardless of being hit in the face and shit like that that's really really nice um did you got me backed up at first it was it's showing it's this weird game like learning fighting teaching fighting where it's showing i don't have to do much and I can control the ring. Absolutely. And that's not what should be happening.
Starting point is 00:24:08 It's the presence. Then Brandon started backing me up once it's like, just throw a fucking flurry. It's like, step in, one, two, three, four. One, one, two, three. You fucking just combo, combo, combo. It's the counterintuitive thing where it's like, I can still be getting hit more than I am hitting,
Starting point is 00:24:24 but still be in control and winning. Yes. Which like sounds so wrong, but it's true. And that was something I had a really hard time with. But it's like even though I'm getting hit, I'm still winning. I'm dominating. I'm setting the pace. I'm moving forward until I decide to back you into a corner and then just start going crazy.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Yeah. And then once you get it, you're like, okay, as said it makes sense hey i'm hey hey i'm more comfortable hey i'm actually throwing combos and when when he throws combos the one thing i was like watch what i'm doing i'm actually backing up now i'm like oh okay he's throwing more than one or two punches i have to actually be careful of one he got me a good one today like i slipped and then i went down and around and when i went down around he already had his uh punch i think he was going for my body but my head prime for your body but then your head was down there and i'm like oh neat fucking give him a little boom okay summer is around the corner guess how i'm getting jacked

Eli. You can spell. That's fantastic. I love.
Starting point is 00:26:29 So a little before all this was announced, I don't remember who said something. I think it was Keem on Twitter. I was like, man, I already know Brandon's going to get into a fight with one of these guys. I already, I'm calling it. And yeah,
Starting point is 00:26:39 cause he said something cryptic. Yeah. That wasn't it. He didn't say my name, but he's like, I have a somewhat right wing influencer or something like that it was even before it was before any of that was announced i was talking i told eli like i think he he was like we're looking for somebody right
Starting point is 00:26:55 wing versus somebody left oh that that's what he's saying he's like i have a right wing whatever i'm looking for a left wing opponent something kind of along those lines yeah like yeah and i was like this this is gonna be brandon like and then it was a couple weeks later and you replied to him i wonder who that was i'm like i knew it i'm gonna see my boy beat the fuck out of somebody i wanted to do one of these for a while because you know with with harley and everything yeah i've been talking with him actually a little bit and uh he's he's had some really good insight too yeah oh man harley i mean he's been around the block for a fucking minute because he's done two of these now. Yeah. And he's, oh my God, like the progress from like when he first started to where he's at
Starting point is 00:27:29 now is absurd. He looks like a fucking fighter now. Yeah, for sure. Like he's just like a six foot 14 fighter. He's six foot 14. He's kind of tall. It's crazy. Harley, did you play basketball?
Starting point is 00:27:41 Well, I mean, he dressed as a basketball player. Yeah. Oh, yeah dressed as a basketball player. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I forgot about that. Which, again, I thought that was... He was a good costume. It was funny at the time. And he was respectable.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Well, he did it respectfully, but it's still like... Even he was like... Hey, look, if Jimmy Kimmel can do it. Exactly. Everyone can do it. But damn exactly. Everyone can do it. But damn, man, this is cool. And so how long until the fight? When is the fight?
Starting point is 00:28:11 July 22nd. So yeah, I've got like two and a half weeks. That's the first. Brandon, if you don't murder this man. In the ring. No, in real life. If he doesn't show up, I'm just saying, well, that's a win in my book. The one thing, I don't know if he's taking this.
Starting point is 00:28:28 So I'm like, I'm conflicted because it doesn't appear that he's taking this very seriously. I don't think he's training much, if at all, which kind of sucks. I want to win, but I also want to win because I train harder than the other guy, which is technically still true. Yeah, absolutely. Because he's got like five inches on me height-wise. Yeah, he's tall as fucking beanpole-looking motherfucker. Yeah, but you don't really want to take that lightly because he's still fighting at 190.
Starting point is 00:28:54 So, like, still, like, five inches tall or 190, like, that's not too beanpole. Some danger can be you can do damage with 190 pounds you can do damage. So, like, I don't want to take it too lightly but at the same time I kind of wish he was taking it more seriously or on the other hand he could be doing what I thought I was going to do
Starting point is 00:29:11 before which is pretend I'm not training and then just like post pictures of me like just on the float in the river with a beer in my hand like oh you know distended belly like oh in a flight train and blah blah blah I literally had planned to do that before Mm-hmm
Starting point is 00:29:27 That's kind of like psychological warfare just for fun But no, I just don't fucking have to and then I'm wondering if he's doing that to me. That's what's fucking me up I'm like god damn it. What if he has been like fighting his whole life? just like he's been in gyms like wrestling and just Watch it on your face. Because he's going to just start prepping up. And you're just going to be like, man, have fun. If I don't call out numbers for Brandon.
Starting point is 00:29:54 I'll be like, Brandon. Duck. Turtle shell. When he comes back in the corner, what do I do? Okay, you're gonna lose. Oh, man. You did great. Your heart's in it.
Starting point is 00:30:08 You can tell. Your heart's in it? Bless your heart. Bless your heart. I'm just like, you got this, buddy. You're doing great. Because, sorry. The first text.
Starting point is 00:30:23 One, one, one. One. One. One. One. One. And he's calling his punches out as they come. That was the first thing I said. I was like, Brandon, you have to fucking spar. And I'm saying spar like four times a week minimum to get used to getting punched in the face.
Starting point is 00:30:41 It's uncomfortable. It's one thing like everybody, I've said this before, like everybody should get punched in the face. Like by the time you turn 18, you should have been punched in the face it's one thing like everybody i've said this before like everybody should get punched in the face like by the time you turn 18 you should have been punched in the face and a lot of motherfuckers you could tell i've never been fucking punched in the face but now like this is to a degree where it's like man i wake up three days a week thinking like yep today is another day i'm gonna get punched in the face it's kind of like to that next extreme level which is kind of fun though like because i've been doing like six days a week Yeah, he's trying hard sometimes two days like if I'm including like weightlifting and stuff really do fuck it. Hell. Yeah, man Those like trying to lean up yeah, dude, he's getting strong getting them jabs today
Starting point is 00:31:18 I was just like jab jab and then I jab to his body a back jab to the body Jab to the body jab to the face Hate you line is tiny mean little arms Well cuz very angry well cuz it sucks cuz I can tell exactly when you go into like calculation mode Sometimes you just like absorb absorb absorb and then you go out again. He's got the He just has this number he goes Whatever is about to happen is going to hurt. Fucking man's going Dragon Ball Z on me right now. I'm about to fucking feel it.
Starting point is 00:31:54 This is it. The day you finally ask for that big promotion. You're in front of your mirror with your Starbucks coffee. Be confident. Assertive. Remember eye contact. But also remember to blink. Smile. But not too confident. Assertive. Remember eye contact, but also remember to blink. Smile, but not too much. That's weird. What if you aren't any good at your job? What if they
Starting point is 00:32:11 dim out you instead? Okay, don't be silly. You're smart. You're driven. You're going to be late if you keep talking to the mirror. This promotion is yours. Go get them. Starbucks. It's never just coffee. I know it. i know exactly what you're talking about fuck is that jump back you're just like okay assess assess okay watch okay just that that yeah i hate going like start just jabbing when you do that because you're just like plan plan i'm like no stop planning stop planning well it's it's weird holding it because during life sparring this is very light to me. So I'm used to just I'm throwing my light punches and light.
Starting point is 00:32:49 And it's still it's light punches still suck getting hit by. It sucks, but it's it's not painful necessarily. It's just disruptive. Yeah, because it's like, well, especially well, it's a little painful. Hit in the face. I've been hit in the face. But, you know, with Logan and Will and all them. So like my nose is fucking constantly tender.
Starting point is 00:33:07 This hurts right now just doing this because I've just been doing that. Stop doing it. I'm not. I was just showing you. I know, but you did it. Stop it. That's where light punches. Well, they'll hurt a little bit,
Starting point is 00:33:17 but it's really just the thrown off your game of, oh, my God, somebody just tried to hurt me. It really does kind of wreck your thought process. Yeah, absolutely. It's getting over that. First Form gave us 15 seconds to do that! First Form! Opti Green 50!
Starting point is 00:33:39 Michael Factor! Firstform.com, slash, subscribe! First Form! Getting through it where, like today he got me on the ropes, so I'm just super proud of you for that. I was like, there's my boy. And I'm just like, fuck yeah, go harder. Because that's when we're sparring. I'm like, Brandon, plant your feet and fucking swing at me.
Starting point is 00:33:56 I'm very aggressive when I'm, like, coaching. And then I was starting to run out on the cardio, so I had you up on the ropes, and then I got out. And my coach was like, no, you fucking retard. Get back in. Go fucking swing more. And you're like, I can't. I almost won't do it anymore. I've been doing this for an hour and a half.
Starting point is 00:34:16 Fucking tired. I'm like, fucking swing. No, don't lay down and take a nap. What are you doing? Because it's such a weird mindset to just go in and be like plant your fucking feet and throw four to six punches and then reset attack again and now i get the premise of those like the tire drills where they like the two dudes have like the front foot in the tire and they're just like fucking moving around each other and just
Starting point is 00:34:40 swinging oh that is i mean don't get me wrong intense as fuck but i i kind of i get the idea now before it was just like why would you do that yeah like that just seems painful but yeah then it's learning you're like oh you're learning to read what your opponent's gonna do so you can start like punching and then you're comfortable staying in the pocket because the pocket if anyone doesn't know it's like where you're both in distance and you can fucking knock each other out you want to stay in that pocket and learn how to fight in that pocket so you're watching those fists you're watching what you're supposed to do you're watching like yeah how am i gonna swing how am i gonna lean back how am i gonna counter
Starting point is 00:35:17 and then attack and then getting against the ropes it like, how do I use these ropes to fucking lean back, bounce back, attack? It's fucking love boxing, which brings us on to this, Brandon. You have one sponsor already. Yeah, so we're trying to lock it down for sure, but he's 100% in. Mike's in. So Sons of Liberty, Gunworks. Oh, fuck yeah. Those are fucking awesome dudes anyway.
Starting point is 00:35:41 Mike is one of my favorite humans. He's just fucking awesome. And you're fucking, so what are they doing? Are they going to put it on your shorts? Yeah, I think we're going to work out something like that. I actually just went in to go buy a gun at Mission Ridge the other day. You buy guns? Not real ones. I would never.
Starting point is 00:35:56 It's just, yeah. It's just props. It's all props. I'll evolve in props. But they... I just went into... It took a second. It was a little slow today. I went in to buy, and I actually ended up buying a Sons of Liberty gun while I was there.
Starting point is 00:36:12 Coincidentally, did not know this, but while I grabbed one off the rack and went to the front, he's like, oh yeah, Mike's in the back. Like, oh, wait, what? Yeah, he was teaching an AR maintenance course or whatever the hell in the back room. So I and just you know crashed his class a little bit and fucked with him hell yeah but he was like yeah dude if you're still down like you still want to do that fight or
Starting point is 00:36:31 whatever so we'll we'll talk it through but i'd love to have fucking mike sitting there throwing popcorn at me or some shit absolutely so unsep's uh gonna sponsor you for a thousand dollars oh no what makes you think I want to do that? Because. Ew, that's gross. I would. Close. This, we'll write it afterwards.
Starting point is 00:36:50 This check is yours. So, I don't know. You guys can't have the banking information. I can't take money from you guys. Yes. For Unsub, yes, you're going to take $1,000. You have to, so. On the flip side.
Starting point is 00:36:58 Well, I don't have to. I don't have to. You have to. I don't have to. My one ask is, can we do a vote on this podcast oh god it says unsub and now i really don't want to do it i haven't even heard the term i fucking knew i fucking knew this was going somewhere i didn't want it to go there is no kids teachable moment there is no such thing as a free lunch
Starting point is 00:37:26 I want to know what fighting term they come up with because I want unsubscribe and then it's small text whatever tax write off hit him with the tax write off he has that touch
Starting point is 00:37:44 give him He has that tism touch. Ha! Give him the tism touch. Oh my god, it just says give him the tism touch. It's boxing gloves all fucked up looking. It's gonna be the tism touch shirt, but it's got like the rat knuckles. Yeah, it's rat boxing gloves, but this. You can tell like the fucked up fingers are poking through the gloves. Oh my God, yeah, it's a normal shaped glove and you still have this.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Fingers going throughout it. Keem is going to never talk to me again. Give him the tis and tubs. If you win, he will though. Yeah. Probably. Don't lose Brandon, please. I did want to do, though. Yeah. Probably. Don't lose, Brandon, please. I did want to do this, though. Oh, damn.
Starting point is 00:38:29 I'll fucking, I'll throw it out there for unsub. If I forget to do this, don't fucking hold it against me, but I think it would be really funny. Hold it against him. At one point, I want to try to sneak in the fucking Henry Cavill, like, dual arm reload. Oh, the pa-pa. You gotta reload them. arm reload you gotta reload them when you got fucking time off just the
Starting point is 00:38:49 like that whole Henry Cavill thing with the mustache it's like the lock and load I think they did an interview with him later he's like I don't know why I did that it was hot who gives a fuck did you just fucking reload your arms it literally looked like one of those arcade games where you have to put the fucking gun off the screen
Starting point is 00:39:11 The fucking reload I forgot about that whole bathroom fight scene is fucking awesome. It's a great movie. Yeah, what movie is that? He's fighting Tom Cruise. He's just beating the shit out of him. No, he's fighting the other guy the him and Tom Cruise are fighting together Wait, I thought he was fighting Tom Cruise. No, no, that's the one he's not fighting Tom Cruise. He's fighting that I just know that bathroom that entire bathroom got annihilated and it was amazing. They used fucking squishy floor. Oh, yeah Oh, do you watch the corridor video? Yeah. Oh, yeah, no, of course. Of course. I'm like Nico. How was that done? Please tell me it like oh my god do watching this fight. It was that done? Please tell us. They're explaining it. I'm like, oh my God. Watching those five films. I know, his arm's sweating on this table. Bro, it is just.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Yeah, it's pretty bad. This place. Super happy that no matter where we go, there is no AC. God hates this podcast. That's what your short says. Unsubscribe. God hates this podcast. God hates this podcast.
Starting point is 00:40:06 It's that or give him the tism touch you have two options give him the tism touch I'm still a parcel of the tax credit like I don't know like oh god yeah send it to the fucking autism foundation of America
Starting point is 00:40:17 or whatever like I'm actually fighting for charity but with tism touch shorts on god I would love you I would love riding the walkout cause he'd be so pissed just the loud music he'd be like daddy I hate this he's just walking this stage with you why am i here i'm gonna kill him i'm gonna kill him i'm gonna kill him one of these days he might do
Starting point is 00:40:36 it i hope i'm still banking on the accountant like for real like i want it to happen like eli i know that's a little dark but like if i would be just you could just field strip all of your fucking guns within 10 seconds and put it back and clean them yeah and i didn't teach him that's what's scary daddy i found your your parental guided sentence settings on youtube i can watch whatever i want now he's just watching gun videos gun disassembly just his favorite movie, Terminator 2.

Haven't we all? i was in nashville at the time i was picking up i was driving through tennessee picking up cannons for mr beast for that shoot like oh yeah five years ago god was it that long ago it was like god he was like 20 million viewers at that point yeah he was uh yeah he was under yeah when we filmed yeah it was no it was three years ago no he didn't, he did one well before that. You worked with Mr. Beast before. I've worked with him like three or four times.

She was with her group of girls. Cowboy hat or no? No. I'm just seeing where you were at. I was dressed like this. My normal attire. A bunker branding green shirt.
Starting point is 00:50:36 Jeans and flip flops. Fat electrician. I probably still did flip flops back then. Yeah, you did. Fat electrician didn't exist. Well, I mean, Nick existed. Fucking fat electrician didn't exist. Well, I mean, Nick existed. Fucking fat electrician didn't exist. But I go up to talk to her
Starting point is 00:50:49 and she sees the ring. I don't put it together. She slaps the... We are not in a bar. We are in the fucking street. Right? Oh, it was on your wet... Oh, you wore that on your fucking... Yeah. That's not where you wear the rings. Well, so... As a married man. So, I'm a piece of shit for this. It worked a good bit of the time. oh that's not where you wear the rings well so it actually married as a man
Starting point is 00:51:05 so i'm a piece of shit for this it worked a good bit of the time but they never said i was married but you know just it's like the chicks want what they can't have kind of thing don't listen to any of this advice kids this is really toxic but it did work um unsubscribe where you're writing but uh the yeah she slapped the fucking shit out of me and i didn't put it together after unsubscribe where you're writing but the yeah she slapped the fucking shit out of me and I didn't put it together after till she like said something about I don't remember exactly what she said but it was I'm still like
Starting point is 00:51:33 stunned but it was like what the fuck would your wife think about that and I'm like my wife I was like who genuinely confused and at that point there is no recovering like that you can't just, oh, well, really funny story, because this is a ring that I slapped again. Like, no.
Starting point is 00:51:50 So, but yeah, that was I didn't know about that. That's fucking great. That was right after, that was the same night I got bit in the chest by a chick. Bit? Bit. By a drunk. Okay, go on. What is this? This was in Luke Bryan's bar. I remember this one.
Starting point is 00:52:05 I know the bar. I remember this one. Uh, I was, you know, the bar. Yeah. I know the bar. We're in the, we're in the,
Starting point is 00:52:10 uh, the base level. Yep. Not the second floor. Then I'll go to the second one. The third floor is cool though. Rooftop school. I'm in the rooftop.
Starting point is 00:52:17 I've only been at the base level. I'm not, I was chilling there a couple of months ago. It was pretty cool. But like this, this chick, uh, comes up,
Starting point is 00:52:23 she's drunk as shit. And I'm just talking to her cause I'm entertained at this point her friends are there like keeping an eye on her whatever i'm like hey you need to watch her because she's pretty fucking hammered and she just like looks me in the eyes and just like gets a real serious look and she just goes and just fuck whole ass like zombie apocalypse me bit me in the fucking left peck and i literally had to grab her by the back of her hair and pulled her off. I'm like, what the fuck is wrong with you kind of thing?
Starting point is 00:52:50 You're just scrumptious looking. And then I realized, oh fuck. If this is the start of the zombie apocalypse, I am fucked. That is literally the thought going through. I'm like, goddammit, I do all this prep. I've got all these guns. Brandon Ryan Reynolds on the spot. Oh shit, I can't say that
Starting point is 00:53:06 you can't say that naughty boy Brandon Ryan Reynolds himself on the spot real quick he just turns around like damn yeah she does that I pull her off I'm like fuck boom in the bar
Starting point is 00:53:20 man oopses himself because he thought he was bit by a zombie so disappointed if you were fucking In the bar. Headline, man oopses himself because he thought he was bit by a zombie. Just a drunk chicken natural. I would have been so disappointed if you were fucking ground zero. You're patient, too. Patience. Yeah, you're patient. Oh, God, no, I've got to be a responsible citizen.
Starting point is 00:53:34 Boom, boom. There it is. I got to kill a zombie before I went to work. Technically, I killed two zombies. We'd build a statue out of you. I hope you know that. It wouldn't be a good one, but we'd do it. Everybody just would piss on it like, you stopped me from living out my zombie apocalypse built a statue out of you. I hope you know that. It wouldn't be a good one, but we'd do it. Everybody just would piss on it like
Starting point is 00:53:46 you stopped me from living out my zombie apocalypse dreams, you piece of shit. Yeah, you're back in the internet. That's a tough line. Because we all want to live out the zombie apocalypse life. We're men. No matter what we say, at the end of the day, we're all like, I don't. I like the internet.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Everybody would want to live it out. We already have AC. It doesn't matter. Yeah, see, I don't want this for the rest. Everybody would want to live it out. We already have AC. It doesn't matter. Yeah, see, I don't want this for the rest of my life. See, I want a COVID zombie apocalypse. Yeah. Where it's like, okay, it's a thing for like a year. So we still have Wi-Fi. It's a thing for like a year
Starting point is 00:54:17 and then everybody just kind of gets over it. Yeah. And it just goes away. Not a thing. My neighborhood was full of zombies. It was weird. I killed my neighbor. My gated community was full of zombies. Well, that's cool until they have the fucking androgen test or whatever. Not androgen, but the fucking, what do you call that? The nasal test. I keep thinking you're doing a bump.
Starting point is 00:54:34 You need to get the, they do the test, the White House test. Oh, yeah. No, that wasn't zombie. Nope, not zombie powder. We're good, guys. That would not wasn't zombie. What the zombie? No, not zombie powder. We're good, guys. That would not be looking for. Sober now. Dude, zombie apocalypse would suck dick.
Starting point is 00:54:51 I would just be miserable. Eli, we're already miserable. I know. For an hour and a half. And I don't like that. I can't picture that for the rest of my life. I like the age of information. Well, just solar panels.
Starting point is 00:55:02 It's pretty great. Where's the internet, Brandon? So I actually know shit. I prep a significant bit for stuff like that i i just got some new uh radio some of those new bow hangs oh fuck yeah the ones you can unlock and ship those are dope i've got the usb powered stuff so usb so i've got solar panel stuff i've got two solar power generators that i keep in faraday cages double bagged i keep all that i don't have solar uh generators but i do i need I actually just got two new generators. I keep a separate set of nods in
Starting point is 00:55:28 Faraday bags double bagged. Really? That way, like, batteries out and everything. So, like, EMP, solar flares, whatever. Keep your batteries out of your shit, but keep it near your shit. What were you talking about just before that? Fuck. The prep stuff. You're boxing. No, no, no. The prep stuff. I was thinking, like,
Starting point is 00:55:43 what? Oh, yeah, no, I've got a laptop, a separate laptop, battery out, in Faraday bag that has an entire terabyte drive filled with like survival information, maps, all sorts of stuff.
Starting point is 00:55:52 Really? Oh, you did that? You're a psychopath. I actually did. A little bit, yeah. That's the one thing I did do. I have my external hard drive that has all,
Starting point is 00:55:59 hey, this is how you make electricity. This is how you do this. This is how you do that. So I have all the information I need for if something happens. I don't know if I can say this something happens i still have a bunch of the maps i'm not supposed to have that the from traveling with the military yeah you weren't supposed to have them because you shoplifted them at the 7-eleven yeah see you're good but yeah i did the same thing i was like oh i need this that's a good idea in case. Let me copy your tribe.
Starting point is 00:56:25 Let me copy your homework. For anybody that wants to do prep stuff, like the Faraday cages, like Faraday bags, whatnot, very inexpensive. They're unbelievably inexpensive. You can get a whole pack of like big ones to small ones where you can double and triple bag if you want to be super safe about it. Like keep them away from like outlets and shit so it doesn't wick over. But like you can get that for like 60 bucks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:43 It's really not expensive. Have you done the did you get the tub thingy with the water so you fill up your tub it's a literal water yeah yeah that basket that you just fill up you put in your tub fills up with water but it's sealed and then that's your drinking water for so i've got like a month supply of water well that's that's that's the cool part too it's like well what are you gonna eat during the apocalypse ah you're a shit that's what i said my gated community is nothing but zombies excuse me neighbor neighbor did you need some food why yes i do boom yeah oh so do i but it's crazy when you're like and it would be be absolutely terrifying, though, at the end of the day, because you are in a, it's trusting.
Starting point is 00:57:31 People you don't know. I'm like, even my buddies, I'm like, how well do I know you? How well do I know that? Is he going to eat me? Probably. He's thick. Everything becomes a PVP server. Literally. It's like Tarkov, probably. He's thick. If everything becomes a PvP server, you're just like...
Starting point is 00:57:46 It's like Tarkov, really. You're just like, yo, there ain't no fucking tag above your head. Oops. I shot you eight times in the back. Yeah. Oh, that would be fucked, too, because it's kind of like
Starting point is 00:57:57 I've experienced this in Witcher and a bunch of games like that where you just murder someone for no reason to take their shit, and then they've got, like, a toothbrush. You're like, well, I do kind of feel bad about that. It's like, well, my teeth are a little ingrained, I guess. That's used.
Starting point is 00:58:14 What was the insult we made up the other day? It was like, you look like you dropped common loot or something. Oh, yeah. Oh, God. You look like you dropped common loot, bitch. That's a great way of telling someone they're not worth killing. There are very few things that you can be certain of in life. But you can always be sure the sun will rise each morning.

Starting point is 00:59:01 Don't care. Now, a zombie apocalypse so you think about how bad that would suck though even if you're prepped still gonna fucking suck yes it's gonna suck dick no running water awful everything goes back to square one I don't wanna go I fucking
Starting point is 00:59:17 yeah life sucks enough already I did Iraq and we had power in Iraq and that still sucked we We didn't have water. It was 120 degrees. You guys have your terabyte drives of survival. I got my terabyte drive of porn. I am good.
Starting point is 00:59:34 It's nothing but cat girls and anime. I'm ready for the end of days, baby. And magic cards. I'm telling you, Pokemon and magic cards. I'm going to be wheeling and dealing. You have just unopened packs. You're like, oh, here's my weekly dopamine hit Recording for myself our team of fucking bandits is just like clearing houses, and we just find you It's like one of those like rare events or whatever. You just find you in a corner opening magic cards. Like here's a question mark above his head.
Starting point is 01:00:07 We have to touch him. I need more magic cards. Can you richer to Washington and purge your tent? I didn't know you. You know me. And it was like, turn to the camera. I knew him.
Starting point is 01:00:25 He had COVID. Brandon, that was eight years ago. No, he was a zombie. Hey, Eli, how'd you sleep last night after drinking all that? So good. You know why? Why? Ghostbed.
Starting point is 01:00:41 Every mattress has a 20-year warranty, sometimes 25. And you can try it out for 101 nights. If you don't like it, you can send it back. No hard feelings. After a long day of podcasting, one of my favorite things about GhostBed pillows and mattresses is the cooling technology built into them to keep us nice and cool after a long day here in the Texas heat.
Starting point is 01:01:01 GhostBed pillows and mattresses are as cool as the linoleum on the bathroom floor. Way more comfortable though. Technology so cold it's like soft These are so freaking comfortable. Also offers bundles so you can get everything you need. You don't even think about it Just pick from one of their four mattresses and then pick your bundle So whether you just need a mattress and frame or you want everything like they're cooling pillows and sheets you can get the best bang for your buck head over to ghostbed.com and use code unsubscribe for 30% off everything that's ghostbed.com code unsubscribe unsubscribe.com code unsubscribe unsubscribe and get 30 off of everything wait have we okay so i know we're kind of late in this one but i don't give a fuck have we talked about
Starting point is 01:01:52 the i mean we kind of talked about it i guess the ukraine fucking wagner oh that was wild that was no i want i i want to hear brandon's I want to know about this mine that went off. There's a video. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Have you heard of this? So it was the video of the Ukrainian dude who's jumping out of the APC. He's jumping out of the back. Oh my fuck, yeah. How am I the only dude in this group?
Starting point is 01:02:16 Honestly, I'm surprised. That motherfucker. So I watched the full uncensored thing. Oh, yeah. He jumps out. Boom, like leg spaghetti. That's the end of the video, though, to be before that longer one well i'm what i'm trying to get to is before that there's three other dudes like leading up to the crazy guy jumps off and blows his fucking leg
Starting point is 01:02:37 and he's it's held on by his pants there's three at least three other dudes who fucking step on minds in this grass field yeah dude it's it's insane there's like five least three other dudes who fucking step on mines in this grass field yeah dude it's it's insane there's like five dudes one who's already hurt and they're crawling around in this tall grass trying to help each other and mine there goes guy's legs and he's fucking tourniqueting and mine another guy trying to get to him loses like so they back the apc up trying to drop it they drop they back it up uh kind of far away for like 20 yards or so mine another one so they pull it even closer we're talking within five meters yeah maybe a little over that guy jumps from the apc lands on a mine and he knees
Starting point is 01:03:18 like he puts his knee down on it it wasn't yeah oh fuck he put all it wasn't gone it wasn't yeah, oh fuck. He put all it wasn't gone. It wasn't a foot. It was like at the knee Boom like you could see him lift off the ground. Yeah, it was bad literally in Holding his leg gets himself crawls back into the fucking a seat at APC like you see the oh yeah The blood goddamn blood trail update from the hospital like he literally lost the leg Yeah, I'm sure he fucking lost it kept He kept the other one. Like he's good. No shit. Comparatively, but you know. It didn't look like he was going to make it.
Starting point is 01:03:49 So that's actually pretty cool. I thought it was a death. Fuck, man. Yeah. So he immediately had that tourniquet on. Yeah. So you could see him apply the fucking tourniquet. Leg gone, rolls over. He literally lands on the mine.
Starting point is 01:04:00 His leg is fucking crooked. Literally looks like his pants are the only thing attaching it. The foot goes different directions. Pretty easy. You see when he crawls in, it's not attached anymore. It's like tissue. And he just rolls over tourniquets immediately.
Starting point is 01:04:13 Crawls back to the APC. Little known fact with explosive IDs or anything. One thing we're trained is, uh, I fucking, it's so weird. I think this is common knowledge until like, I hear people talking about like well isn't it?
Starting point is 01:04:27 When an IED explosive something really traumatic happens on a limb what your body does Immediately and why you want to place a tourniquet is your muscles contract immediately Immediately it creates a muscle tourniquet That is why you have like a couple of seconds to then apply a regular tourniquet. Because femoral artery bleed out one of my biggest fears when I was over there. That was you bleed out in about 10 to 20 seconds. You're fucking. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:04:57 You're like you're at least unconscious in 10 to 20. Yeah. You're just done. Oh, yeah. Femoral artery is your pinky size and it is is just a inner thigh both sides all the way down I think I think it's what is it? Unconscious in 15 to 20 and dead and 30 yeah something like that It is just it is a fucking fountain that will shoot bright red blood needs you need to put a tourniquet on no matter what yeah yeah that's a good fucking rule of thumb we're going from seconds i love our group of friends too
Starting point is 01:05:27 because sometimes like i remember at shot show like there was like a fight or whatever and then like we literally judged the severity of the fight we're just sitting there drinking at circle bar and there's you know oh yeah some dude it was the thing that happened this year at shot some dude got his face pretty fucked up and we just sprayed blood all over like the fucking slot machines and the chairs and everything and like our group that we were with just judge the severity of the fucking slot machines and the chairs and everything. And our group that we were with just judged the severity of the fight based on the color of the blood.
Starting point is 01:05:51 We were just all chill. We'd all seen fucking blood before. We were just like, yeah, he's pretty fucked up. He should probably get that looked at. We should probably go. He's leaking pretty hard. It was just that chunky red blood just all over. Like, yeah, that's, I mean, to be honest, not great. No, bright red blood, not good. Bright red blood just all over like yeah that's i mean to be honest not great no bright red blood not good bright red blood very not good so when an explosion happens the
Starting point is 01:06:11 fucking muscle will contract usually is health made turn a body tourniquet for a couple seconds apply the other one fucking wrench it down stop the bleeding and you you're tightening in down until it fucking just stops any flow down there but having that mindset after getting blown up and then getting in the vehicle doing that applying a medic jumping out to try to save like four of the dudes who are missing limbs and then landing on a landmine bro that they said the apc hit an anti-tank mine on the way out yeah so those after after that Yeah, you know what's crazy is all those minds are fucking anti tank my entire vehicle minds because against it's against the rules of
Starting point is 01:06:56 Geneva right now to drop anti-personnel mines. Did you know that you cannot? minds are technically anti-vehicle mines because in the rules of war. Which, to be fair, is good. To be honest, a lot of people don't realize that's good. Yeah. Because that's just going to remove the limb. It's not meant for fragmentation. It's going to shoot a solid jet at a cop.
Starting point is 01:07:15 Right there. It is not shrapnel. It is not just shredding your body. Fuck, yeah, you're going to lose a foot, but you're going to. There's a scenario where your torso is placed in the exact wrong spot where that's not great but honest to god if i had a choice yeah yeah take take a limb versus the rest of you shit actually that actually fucking thank you guys you're welcome you you did uh with g i did what with g thumbs g thumbs not ran oh my god yeah
Starting point is 01:07:42 what is wrong with you right now uh dropping how was it outrunning drones i forgot that is one thing because i've never done that war like id is terrifying hb is terrifying fucking v bits fucking terrifying that i am so glad that technology did not exist i made that joke like gen z's ptsd brought to you by DJI and Best Buy. Because it's honestly creepy. Because it was fun after a while. You're just kind of like, oh, hey, this is, you know, it's a fun game. But you realize, like, okay, in real life, this shit's terrible. They have two grenades and shit, bro.
Starting point is 01:08:15 They got mortar rounds. They're just dropping straight on you. Can you hear? There's all sorts of shit. What do you do? From the low flying stuff, you can hear. And that was one thing i i was thinking like i had several times for the bit you know a lot of shit doesn't make the video we were
Starting point is 01:08:30 there for like eight hours um i like had my obviously i don't have live ammo but like i had the the like donut of death on the drone several times like if i had ammo i'm like 90 sure i could make this shot but they're probably flying a bit higher. Yeah. In reality. Cause we were running with short fuses on like a CO2 with, you know, baby powder and whatnot.
Starting point is 01:08:52 Yeah. Probably a little bit more difficult, but what was crazy to see is how good they got as drone operators over the course of the day. Cause in the beginning it was like, bro, you're, you're fucking around.
Starting point is 01:09:03 You're dropping. Dude, you've been teaching us how to fucking operate that three kills buddy that's an airstrike i'm coming straight down i know that works hunter killer drone they use xbox controllers oh yeah i do the amount of times seeing like ukrainian whatever in stairwells they got the fucking cell phone goggles on in an xbox controller place this controller just like yes what's crazy is you can you can immediately and i like i didn't think about this really like that much until after you could see how quickly it evolves because we realized because
Starting point is 01:09:38 we were we were doing a hit at one point me micah uh and uh christian were doing a hit on admin results and Grantham that were doing a patrol. We didn't have the distance to go out there or to effectively – the drone was having a distance problem. So we jumped in the fucking side-by-side, and Micah was in the back controlling the drone. I was driving. We were moving out there, and I'm like, oh, fuck. I thought about it later. I'm like, yeah, just different shit like this is probably happening all the time and you constantly there's like and that actually is probably helpful because your operator is on the move so they can't
Starting point is 01:10:12 just trace the signal back and then just start fucking launching mortars at you because you're mobile and then you have what's really crazy is have you seen the new um blades what they're doing for helicopters and drones. Seen that? I'm not sure. So, you know, your standard rotation blades. Four blades, whatever. Four blades, spins in a circle. Two blades, fucking spins in a circle.
Starting point is 01:10:34 Now they're doing loops. So it's this weird hole. Through the blade? Yep, through the blade. 80% less sound. Oh, I does oh i have seen yeah yeah yeah just dripping the wind way more efficient yeah yeah and it works really fucking good you've seen those scary dude that's what the thing and then dji have you seen um so their new uh DJI might be the new fucking Lockheed. Skynet.
Starting point is 01:11:08 Their new receptors on, we just got the RS3 Pro, and then we got the Ravenite. Their tech is getting so crazy for just camera work, which I know what camera work means. It means, hey, this can be incorporated into military tech. So you have the Ravenite. Meaning it's already been included in military military tech that's how we found out how to do this you know like it's already a thing so you're saying the tail ain't wagging the dog on this one yeah so your standard like receivers on monitors or anything is about 60 feet dji has two miles now where if you have their connectors you just have that remote and they were showing it on uh film right homeboy was driving and they
Starting point is 01:11:51 just put it right that is a that is a name i have not heard in a long time time four antennas and homeboy got in the vehicle drove away with the monitor he's like and i can still control the camera he is so far away and i can still see and control the camera what the monitor he's like and i can still control the camera he is so far away and i can still see and control the camera what the fuck he was driving just drove and they say it's good up to two miles line of sight two miles is fucking insane to have control of everything but now with the new system raven eye and stuff it's automatic so if i like hey okay control abandon it remembers your face then it just like the camera will lock on you no matter what up to two miles fucking getting ridiculous on this tech i'm like oh this is awesome for camera tech absolutely terrifying
Starting point is 01:12:38 for future that also lines up with some of the stuff that i was like talking to somebody about we were looking at like new security systems and whatnot to install yeah uh as far as like license plate readers and facial id where I can do facial id on all my employees and myself and other people that I security yeah yep I can do facial id the alarm only goes off when it's not those people or even and this is where it gets a little kind of funny. This is where we become silly gooses. I was looking at implementing a solenoid-fired PKT, which is the tank-firing variant of the PKM,
Starting point is 01:13:19 like the tank gunner thing, where you can fire it via solenoid, onto an auto turret, where it can only fire on people. It doesn't recognize. This is a level in cyberpunk. I remember this level. So you break into the warehouse and there's guys walking around that the
Starting point is 01:13:35 turret likes. And then I'm not one of them. And it shoots at you until you kill it. Yeah. I always just went through that one with a katana. Can't do that anymore we can't even know that doesn't work now that don't work in real life
Starting point is 01:13:48 but the fact that tech is real is absurd dude AI is going to make all that infinitely easier with future tech and absolutely terrifying because we've all seen AI I give us 5 years
Starting point is 01:14:04 we got 5 good years left. Enjoy it. After that. Before. Oh, end of days. Oh, AI. Oh. Oh, yeah. End of days. Whether it's Terminator or the Cold War II. Super excited for Cold War II. Speaking of which, did you hear like right now as we speak? Yeah, well, we're in the
Starting point is 01:14:19 preamble to that. Did you hear right now as we speak, the Russians are currently like laying explosives down at the nuclear facility? Yeah, the thing that's going to involve NATO. Yeah, like if you break this line, the line in the sand. Yeah, we are there. They don't love the
Starting point is 01:14:36 N. I was going to say the N word, but I legitimately meant nuclear. That's a different one. This is an end of days one, not just end of culture one. Yeah, no, not this one, not just end of culture one. Yeah, no, not... Eli laughing from the pisser! Eli's spraying the bowl right now. He got the seat without one.
Starting point is 01:15:01 Yeah. No, I saw that. I saw that. That's all these weird new people showing up suddenly at a fucking facility. Yeah, this isn't the one that hurts that's all these weird new people showing up suddenly at a fucking facility yeah this isn't the one that hurts the fifis this is the one that hurts everything okay okay what is your thoughts on this whole wagner thing then moving to belarus that's what started this conversation of the end of days i enjoyed the shit out of watching that that was really interesting because it was like insane i didn't see that coming 24 hours of
Starting point is 01:15:23 insanity and i've i've got a few contacts in Russia that I talked to about it. Yeah, I'm sure. They said that. Those are the guys that work for you. No. No! No! Not those tax credits.
Starting point is 01:15:33 It was a joke! But a couple of people I do trust over there that I said, like, bro, I didn't see that coming. They were like, this was always going to happen. So it seemed like a thing that they knew about. No shit. That's crazy. Like the intelligent people over there anyway that don't necessarily buy into the Western or Russian propaganda.
Starting point is 01:15:51 They said, yeah, this is probably going to happen. Yeah. Which I was just like, what the fuck? Because I made the joke. I'm like, yeah, Wagner one day just decided, hey, you know what's way less guarded than Kiev? Moscow! Uno reverse card. Change it was great i mean you have a pmc that is that well funded that's like blackwater invading virginia and moving to dc
Starting point is 01:16:16 oh yeah how what is their net worth like you have putin have Putin is one of the richest humans, period. It'd be interesting to see like Wagner's worth or worth on paper. I guarantee they hide the fuck out of that thing. Because BMC is when you, I mean, that's why Metal Gear exists. Metal Gear Solid is based off of the PMC movement and how that would happen. And then they're like, and now you can go back and play for it and be like, holy shit, this was all transpired now.
Starting point is 01:16:50 So, uh, they, they, their current strength, I can tell you that not net worth, but strength, uh,
Starting point is 01:16:56 is between 20 to 50,000 mercenaries. I'll say, I know at their height, they were, they were said 50,000. Yeah. Obviously that was probably inflated a little bit and has been since reduced a little bit well no they've grown actually really yeah they uh so
Starting point is 01:17:11 they were originally about a thousand now they're at like 20 to 50 000 like killers so 50 this is this is kind of and and i don't blame any of those russians by the way even if you're like a diehard putin is my man kind of russian dude uh I don't blame any of those Russian guys for standing down when Wagner was making their move. Oh, yeah. That's like your standard enlisted men. Those are your privates. And Ranger Battalion is just moving through like,
Starting point is 01:17:35 no, fuck this shit. And you're just like, you know what? I'm going to bow out of this one. It's like, I'm good. What happens to all the guys that you look at? The MOD guys that joined with them. The what? The MOD, the Ministry of Defense.O.D. guys that joined with them. The what? The M.O.D., the Ministry of Defense.
Starting point is 01:17:47 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So, that joined Wagner. Yeah, or the guys who at least, like, let him blow through the checkpoints. Nothing good. Seriously, that was the first thing I thought of. I was like, because they said, Wagner fighters who didn't do anything, you're good. Ministry of Defense guys, they didn't mention. I was like I do kind of love
Starting point is 01:18:06 the big the big dick move of the the CEO of Wagner who right off the bat like was having that conversation with the Minister of Defense
Starting point is 01:18:14 and he was just the guy was just like you shot down our fucking helicopter. He's like yeah and if you send another one we'll shoot that down too. Like god
Starting point is 01:18:22 damn. They shot down a few to be honest. I think they shot down three. In a plane, correct? I didn't hear about the plane. I'm pretty sure there was a plane in multiple helicopters.
Starting point is 01:18:32 You know how the information about this is kind of... It's crazy to think. Like, the U.S. military has, what, it's like 600 to 1 million soldiers at any given time, I think. 200,000 to 1 million. Yeah, yeah. No, just 600. I just wanted to clarify, I think. 200,000 to 1 million. Yeah, yeah. No, just 600.
Starting point is 01:18:45 I just wanted to clarify, Eli. 600K. But having times, having a PMC, a private military contractor that has just like 50,000. That is an unreal number. I just want to point out the biggest city in the state of Vermont had like 40,000 people in it. And you have highly trained killers. Vermont was not full of those.
Starting point is 01:19:13 Yeah. There was a couple. Cheers, boys. But the rest of you were fucking idiots. But if you have that and that's how you wage war. I mean, Blackwater, you got to think. They were at what? 10,000? i'd be shocked if
Starting point is 01:19:26 it was that high yeah like ten thousand is fucking amazing i almost say like a thousand to five thousand like triple canopy all of those guys triple a for a while they they just kept changing their name as terrible things happened until uh what was it after triple canopy um triple canopy was like the most respected for the longest okay so not just blackwater but uh all pmcs all pmcs working in iraq 20 to 30 000 so you have all our collected pmcs is less than the wagner group that's fucking ridiculous and then you have the dude in charge. That is Academy is what they went to. Well, Academy, yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:08 Yeah, they changed their name a few times. They had to. Well, there was a disagreement at some point. But you were Metal Gear Solid at that point. Have you played through those yet? No. Oh my God, you need to play through it because that is exactly what MGS is based off of.
Starting point is 01:20:25 I saw your stuff and then I saw Internet Historian did a great breakdown. That was really entertaining to watch. The amount of armored components they had is astonishing. Oh yeah, because it's not 50,000 dudes. It's 50,000 dudes. When you think of a private military gunner,
Starting point is 01:20:44 you think of foot soldiers grunts whatever no they had goddamn like t-72s and btr 80s and all sorts of shit rolling down the street russian armor they had anti-air elements like full-on like it's crazy it's it's unreal to see oh yeah i forgot they have the ac came back on did it i don't hear it i feel it brandon's happy he's like It's unreal to see. Oh, yeah. I forgot they have that. The AC came back on. Did it? I don't hear it. I feel it. Brandon's happy. He's like.
Starting point is 01:21:11 Oh, my God. I feel it. But, yeah. So, a Metal Gear Solid 4. Especially if you played. I would suggest playing through one. Don't. Two, three, four.
Starting point is 01:21:21 Just play one of them. Pick one, Eli. Pick one. I mean, you can drop in one game for it. Four. Thank you for PMCs. That's one that that's one game series. I think I'm,
Starting point is 01:21:29 I'm happy to watch, watch somebody else do it. Cause I've heard that's basically the same thing. Cause there's so much of metal gear. That's just watching. It is all watching and metal gear. Solid four is based off of PMCs and global PMCs and how that's going to control the market
Starting point is 01:21:45 and control how the world operates through every country, Russia to Africa to Belarus. And I love how people think this is a new concept. It's like, no. I mean, fuck, it's July 4th. Do you want to learn some fucking history? It's like, Jesus, this is...
Starting point is 01:22:02 American birthday. Literally, we were fighting the British a lot less less than you fucking think we were fighting a lot of fucking prussian you know uh mercenaries and shit like this was basically britain was preoccupied with shit going on with france and they're just like ah fuck it we'll send the b team anybody like guns for hire you want to go fuck up these colonists yeah yeah dude we've done it in our i mean you look at viking time everything like literally everything starts as a pmc like it's a private military contractor who's like hey bros we actually could probably make more money if we just overthrow these people everyone down everyone
Starting point is 01:22:36 okay let's do this they take over and then hand on okay now you're a king well that shit's gonna happen to me next where it's, why does the government have power? Oh, the barrel of a gun. What happens when they outsource that power? The amount of politicians who don't think about this is kind of incredible. And weird, it's like you have an entire populace who's super well-armed who has the power. Now we need disarmament, Brandon. It's what we say.
Starting point is 01:23:07 It's just guns are bad. Which actually, you're running? Are we allowed to talk about you running? Why would I be running? That would be so crazy. Eli and his ideas. I never know the rules. We can cut this portion out if you want that would be so weird it would be so weird if our boy ran for anything in the office man why would i already have a team
Starting point is 01:23:35 hired and papers prepped and everything to announce in august that would be so crazy yeah it'd be so crazy just august running for anything in texas oh right like be insane you have a small platform so no likelihood and the guy that you're running against are really loved oh yeah beloved beloved in texas a man of the people i think here here bro, here. Bro, I will let you know. It's going to be so weird. Especially if this takes off and this is your fucking launch point on that. Brandon's conquered YouTube.
Starting point is 01:24:13 Brandon conquered boxing. Brandon conquered Texas. Not without my PMC group. We got you, bro. Bernie PMC's fucking living strong, brother. Dude, in 10 years, though, if you're president, can you just... I don't fucking want to be president. God, why do you... I don't even want to be a politician.
Starting point is 01:24:32 Brandon, do this for unsubscribe. Become president. Make it here just so we can have the president on. You're being real fucking selfish right now, Brandon. Go be president. YouTuber Brandon Herrera, president of the United States.
Starting point is 01:24:49 Oh, God, no. That would be awful. Dude, that stress. First Hispanic president. Oh. Oh. First YouTube president. That would be awful.
Starting point is 01:24:59 That would be Mr. Beast. See, that's the thing I'm worried about is literally just like opening up the fucking floodgates to people like the Pauls, Mr. Beast, whatever. Well, I mean, we're 15 years from that? Less. I don't think so. I think we're, because they're all in their 30s. We're late 20s to 30s. They're not
Starting point is 01:25:18 in their 30s. How old are they? How old's Mr. Beast? Mr. Beast's like 25. Yeah, he's a youngin'. I'm so old! It? 28. Like, late 20s. How old is Mr. Beast? Mr. Beast is, like, 25. Yeah, he's a youngin'. I'm so old! It makes me feel bad, because I'm just like, God, I think I'm doing shit right. And then I look at that, and I'm like, Jimmy's, like, fucking 25. I think he's 25.
Starting point is 01:25:34 Okay, so 15 years. Like, what's going to happen to the political landscape in 15 years? Wait, holy fuck. Jimmy's 20. That is absolute asinine. You have a dude that is he's known he's probably on par with like tom cruise i'd almost say more i'd say higher no no like oh man you don't know what's international is why i count it it's international following yeah but i'm gonna say tom cruise is more if we talk to india didn't he? Like, Jimmy, one of them went to India
Starting point is 01:26:06 and he got like... India, South Africa. I'm sure anywhere. I would say, okay. If not yet, technically, give it three months. Like that sort of thing. And that probably sounds ridiculous, but I see the stats. Like it's... He's at 120 million subs? How many is he?
Starting point is 01:26:22 165 million? Holy shit, dude. he was just at 100 million like a couple months ago yeah 10 percent of a bill over jesus fuck 10 percent of the and that's not including the gaming channels and all the other shit he's got that's not including people who like okay i'm gonna say this two percent of subscribe to mr beast i know who he is i know what i've seen tons of videos and i don't subscribe to him just because I don't like him or anything. I just, it's not your,
Starting point is 01:26:47 it's not meant for you. I literally use YouTube to follow my friends and watch like random magic shit. Like I don't use YouTube very much. I'm not a big YouTube guy. Yeah. So like think of the amount of people like me out there. So yes, he has 165 million subscribers.
Starting point is 01:27:02 So a hundred million actual real people, but like 400 million people are aware of him. Yes. 2% of the world probably know who he is. More than that. Oh, way more than that. I know, but no, more than that. Have heard the word Mr. Beast.
Starting point is 01:27:15 Oh, yeah. Even on a low end, 2%? 10, but minimum. 2% of 8 billion people is a metric fuck ton. There's no way around it. 2% of 8 billion people is a metric shit ton of fucking people. 800 million people. That's fucking absurd.
Starting point is 01:27:37 That's fucking asinine when you think about it. That is asinine to have that a much influence and power. Like, think of it like you're at three mil compared to, so world populace, you're at point... Completely, yeah. I'm irrelevant compared to him. Like, I am a homeless man compared to Jimmy. It's absurd.
Starting point is 01:28:00 Well, we know one of those. You're not that. Well, not that specific one. No, you're fucking of those. You're not that. Not that one. Well, not that specific one. No, you're fucking. Like, you're crushing the game. Are you at three mil now? Not yet. I'm at like 2.7 something.
Starting point is 01:28:15 About to be 2.8. And my favorite thing about this is we pointed this out when we went to fucking dinner the other day or lunch, whatever. Is Brandon getting stopped by like 50 plus audience it's awesome to see because that means you are in that influence of like politics now you're like people are watching you're like i love this love this but now you're getting that side too it's crazy to see the YouTube audience aging up to that that is like my I'm gonna tell the story real quick. Go up my dad Love him to death like my dad's one of my best fucking friends. He when he's back at You know back in Fayetteville and it's like the TV or whatever the smart TV
Starting point is 01:28:59 I made the fucking mistake of logging in one day and so every time he's back in Fayetteville Watching YouTube because he watches YouTube now. He's on my fucking YouTube the fucking mistake of logging in one day. And so every time he's back in Fayetteville watching YouTube, because he watches YouTube now, he's on my fucking YouTube account just automatically. And my recommendations are fucked for like the next six months. It's all just finance advice, Russia-Ukraine war,
Starting point is 01:29:19 like all this shit. It's just everything my dad watches. Yeah, well, there was some weird... Hot bikini YouTube girl.

That was funny. That was funny. Riding on my account one time. I was like, nope, got to have him have his own family account.

You want to scare the hoes? Share a YouTube account with your dad. Dude. So for Tay's stream backdrop, we built a TV into a wall, basically. That's cool.
Starting point is 01:30:06 So she could run. It's like a 79-inch fucking TV. It's a wall. Right. And that's part of it. So it looks like some cyberpunk type shit. So you can put on like futuristic shit in the background. It looks cool.
Starting point is 01:30:16 But I logged into that because I had premium. So it would run like four-hour fucking whatever YouTube. No ads. No ads. After two days, I'm like, no! You can't give your girlfriend premium? You piece of shit. We fixed that.
Starting point is 01:30:31 But for the longest time, I had my premium. Oh, $9. A tube of magic cards, Pokemon cards in the Ukraine war. You know, she could have just asked for, you know, oh, if only I could get YouTube premium. It was like, she's have just asked for, you know, oh, if only I could get YouTube premium. It was that she's got it now! What? For just $9 a month, you can support this, you know,
Starting point is 01:30:51 struggling streamer in their quest for YouTube premium. It goes to a good cause. But destroyed for two days.
