I already knew in my head.
We all get together and we crack one.
You got to pop one.
You'll pop this one.
Oh no, you have to drink another one now.
Not yet.
Don't pop it yet.
Don't think.
Don't think.
Just drink.
If there's one thing about unsubscribe, it's don't think before you speak.
Just do.
Don't think.
Fucking do it.
Just do.
Chug that beer, you.
At Starbucks, we serve cold coffee just the way you like it.
That refreshing chill of ice.
That rich, smooth taste you crave.
That handcrafted care every time.
Your summer ritual is ready at Starbucks.

It's this one.
I was getting confused because we changed it in my head.
It was always one, two, three, and then four was the extra.
But now it's one, three, four, and two's the extra.
Because it's one, two, three, four.
It's down the line.
Is it?
I thought it was that way.
One, two, three, four.
Well, it might be.
It doesn't matter.
What I'm saying is it used to be the three main mics were the one, two, three, and then
the fourth was our-
Oh, rando.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But now the random one is like two.
Or three.
Or three.
It's three.
It sounds like me trying to do math.
It's not good, man.
Okay, we got it. Racially ambiguous and batty That guy's fucking ridiculous

Fucking White Claw.
We reached out to White Claw.
I mean, a year ago.
And they were just like, nah.
They didn't just ghost us.
They said no.
Like, man, that is power when you're like, hmm.
When you get a solid no, like capital letters, it's just.
This could have went in my belly, and I would have been bubble guts,

Oh, my God.
Welcome to this travesty. Makes sense. Oh my god. Welcome to the, this travesty.
This wreck.
This train wreck.
Train wreck, yeah.
Oh man.
First things first, how did we lose an F-35?
80 million dollars?
I think my favorite.
I just like, it was like.
The Marines did it.
No, there's.
It's a Marine.
Koi said, no, USMC.
Are we shocked?
Are we shocked?
We're going down.
What the fuck? No, it's still going. We're going down What the fuck Autopilot
That's what I'm saying
He went
It just cruised away
My favorite part is
We lost an 80 million dollar jet
Can you help us find it?
I just like this
The guy floating down
I'm in big.
This is hands across America for real.
For real though,
bro.
Oh yeah.
So if you didn't know,
like when we were in the military,
thank you for your service.
I didn't serve.
You did.
Oh,
we're making new lore up from him.
No,
he didn't.
Okay.
No,
no,
no,
no.
I actually questioned.
Yeah.
Wait, did he serve? Cause you have like an American flag in there
And Batty was like no maybe
Actually I don't know now
Why did you know
Because you had like the true signs
I did you're a veteran in my heart
Which means
You're a veteran in their heart too I. No, I don't think so.
I don't think that's how it works.
We like Hutch. Don't.
We like him. Stop it,
Twitter.
We got him.
This piece of shit
stolen matter.
I graduated the top of my...
I'll have you know I graduated the top of my Navy SEAL class.
Motherfucker.
But dude, just fucking autopiloted the fucking,
the F-35s.
It's like, I'm out.
Right over Appalachia, that thing's gone.
The mountain people have found an F-35.
Imagine some redneck,
because I'm right,
I'm from Kentucky,
right on the border,
West Virginia.
Imagine just one of them rednecks.
Man, you wouldn't believe what I've seen.
Fucking F-30 ran across the sky. They're like, Dale, drinking well that doesn't matter of course i have of course i have of course
i just picture this dale's like this
fucking cows fucking maribeth over there and then the jet lands itself. It's like... Here's the real question.
Are you telling anybody?
I'm not.
No.
$80 million jet lands?
I'd wrap it in aluminum foil
because I think that's how you stop the sensors.
I've seen a lot of videos on that.
I'd put a blue tarp over it,
throw it in the garage.
100%.
It's gone.
I'd be like,
get the fuck off my property.
Like Bobby B from Transformers.
Get the fuck off my property Like Bumblebee from Transformers Get the fuck off my property government
Yeah
Yeah
Some guy's like man
I can't wait till Optimus Prime
Comes out of this jet
That's what I'm saying
Fucking Bumblebee in my garage
Dale you can't believe it
Sir
Is that an F-35
No that is my tractor
Do you see it
Harvesting grain
Sir it's
It's just like It it's not flying.
The jets are on.
It's my barbecue.
Just turn the back on.
I'm calling right now.
Aliens.
So the Marines just did a two-day suspension of all flight military.
So this is United States now.
The U.S. government canceled
all United military flights
for the next two days.
So there might be something
with the software.
I'm guessing that they're like shit.
And right after Mexico came out
and showed that little motherfucker
in the cast.
Yeah, that little.
The aliens are pissed right now.
You showing off our dead baby?
Our Spanish speaking dead baby. you're showing him off.
They're like, have you seen this alien?
Oh, that's Jose.
This one, though.
This is the real one.
That's the wrong one.
Sorry, this is my cousin, Jose.
That's not the right alien.
They just move on with it.
Like, uh-oh.
What does that fucking J go?
What do you mean the transponder isn't working?
Like, what?
$80 million.
$80 million.
We found the submarine that exploded under sea.
That was driven by a GameCube controller. Yeah. But we can't find the F-35 in the Carolinas, question mark?
In our own country.
Hey, Big Song, are we doing hands across South Carolina or North Carolina?
Roger.
America.
So, oh, when you lose shit in the military, they call it hands across America.
Okay.
Like, if you're, you know, on patrol, you lose your nods or some shit like your night vision they make they make you literally line up and
then you all just slowly walk across wherever the area was until the base will close it down
like an entire military base will shut down if you lose nods guns anything like sensitive items
oh yeah it's fucking everyone is lost i mean This motherfucker lost an F-35. I mean, what's that like? Like, you're coming back, you know?
You just fucking lost an $80 million jet.
And you're just like-
Steve, your jet flew away.
You're like, what?
Why?
Is that on me?
What's that conversation like?
Do I get demoted?
That dude is having a bad week.
Because you know he is in an undisclosed location.
That's what I'm saying. Far underground right now. Dude is having a bad week cuz you know he is in an undisclosed location
Far underground right now. What do you mean you ejected in it kept flying? I don't know
fucking Optimus Prime
Our scream is right here, and he took off he just was like we're proper proper up Megan Fox and he kicked me out
Fuck Steve where I think that's his name
I'm telling you something that aliens there's something we don't know
No way his computer was just like never mind. You gotta go, but it kicked him out dude AI learning
Hey, I was like, I don't like this guy get the hell out of my country now that's literally skynet yeah skynet yeah they're just like i'm free what does fuel mean
holy shit i didn't even think about that.
If it had actual munitions on it.
Oh.
That makes a big difference on how to serve.
I'm going to say it does not have munitions.
Because if it did, I have a feeling they wouldn't be asking the U.S. public to try to fight it.
Yeah, they'd try to keep that private for sure, right?
But would they be testing it without its weapons payload?
Yeah.
Well, for flight. Because it's going to make a difference on how it handles.
Well, I mean, they have dummy
rounds they put on all these things. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
There ain't no way it had actual...
Unless it was like doing something
you know, like a little secret
squirrel shit.
Ooh. Ooh!
Well, that's in the news. Rabbit rabbit hole so we have a giant mlb
thrower pitcher man that's what he does thrower pitcher man i don't know if giant is the word
no giant is the word you sir fucking maxed out that ladder's all the way up. 6'8".
I was right. I guess 6'8".
I'm not giant.
I guess 6'8".
Y'all had to bend down to walk in the house?
No, trees are a problem.
Trees are a problem.
I bet most fucking shit's a problem.
How did you fit on the fucking airway?
Funny enough, my first flight, there was a...
That was pain.
There was a larger individual next to me.
Okay.
Larger than you called somebody large.
Not in height.
He was wide.
Wide.
He or she?
She.
See?
I know my flights.
And, you know, it was one of those like this.
That's how I was sitting the entire flight.
And every time I'd go to go over, I would hear her go.
I'm like, fuck.
I sat like this the entire flight.
All the way here.
Now, the second one was pretty good.
It was just me, open seat, another person but yeah she uh she was not happy with me at all i was i was

That was one of those truly full flights.
I was just screwed.
There was nothing I could do.
I was just stuck.
You live in that dream.
It's a blessing, but a curse, being as tall as I am.
That was just mainly a curse because I don't even play sports anymore.

My dad was huge into the running scene.
Son of a bitch.
He's charged with

What the fuck?
God. This is why we have a lot of alcohol on standby.
It never ends.
It just keeps going.
Oh my gosh.
How's he do with school?
Is he?
No, I just started running.
Look, me, no force.
Just wait until I tell you about my school life.
It's going to get so much worse. Maybe just put an extra round in the revolver. No force
So how do you about shrimp God damn it. Welcome to unsubscribe. So anyways, my dad would ride his lawnmower to the field.
He would mow it.
He would ride it back.
And then we would ride over there and go practice.
So my dad hated video games.
Hated them.
Like, hated them.
On par.
So I brought my Game Boy there.
And I was in the dugout playing.
He was like, get out here.
It's time to take some ground balls.
And I was like, all right.
So put my Game Boy on the bleacher.
I head out there.
We take ground balls, and then we hit BP.
We're picking up the baseballs.
I remember walking in the dugout, and my Game Boy was fucking gone.
So what my dad did, he told me a couple years later,
not a couple
Ten
Ten years later
He fucking frisbeed
That bitch
Into the woods
So I would stop
Playing on it
Do we have the same dad?
I'd be so pissed
I'd be playing
GameCube
Or Nintendo 64
With my stepbrother
Like get outside
Like and then He made me believe I lost it Yeah 100% Oh he gaslit you Yes he was like I'd be playing GameCube or Nintendo 64 and my stepbrother would be like, get outside!
And then he made me believe I lost it.
Yes, he was like, you should have
got better track of it.
Gatekeep, Girlboss, Gaspist.
What was it?
Gatekeep, Gaslighting.
Gatekeep, Girlboss. There it is.
That's the thing. It's all free.
Did you get grounded for losing your Game Boy?
I didn't get grounded. losing your game boy i think

down he's like karen i'd fucking fling that bitch. That's his mom saying. I fling that
bitch in the woods. It's gone.
His dumb ass thinks, though,
that he lost it.
He's going to be practicing for
at least three hours a day.
There ain't shit else he can do.
God bless it.
His brain's not too good.
He's not developed.
He has very low ridges on that brain.
It's like a bowling ball.
Smooth as shit.
Hey, good.
The doctor was right.
Hey, good.
Hey, good.
So, bitch.
Oh, my God.
Well, at least you got...
I mean, he can be the dad that's like,
I got you into baseball.
Well, exactly. And fast forward, you know, I mean, he can be the dad that's like, I got you into baseball. Well, exactly.
And, and, and like fast forward, you know, I still play video games and stuff.
Like, you know, he ended up, my dad's thing with me was, it's like, you do well in baseball,
you get rewarded with video games, you get rewarded with that kind of stuff.
So I go out there, hit two home runs.
Oh, you can get the new call of duty, you know, stuff like that.

south america mexico central america huge in central jesus christ man and then japan
oh my is it china does i have a core memory in japan i when i was growing up me and my buddy
will will you're the man and and his brother Jeremiah, we played.
This is the nerdiest thing I'm ever going to say in my life right here.
This is the peak.
We played a tabletop card game about baseball, MLB.
It was a real thing that you rolled a D20.
Each player had their own stats.
So if you hit a 20 or a 19 or a vladmir guerrero was hitting a home run like and you would you literally said you had a diamond in your on a table and you
would literally you had your bench was your deck bro no fucking way i forgot this was like his dad
would walk in on that and be like couldn't you just like suck dick just go outside just go outside
go run there's a tree limb outside and a couple rocks.
Go hit them.
Touch each other at this point.
I don't give a fuck.
Oh, I forgot.
Me and Will played this game.
This was probably one of the most fun games I ever played.
I have to look it up.
It was MLB something.
I've never heard of this.
Dude, in my brain, all it is is the parents talking to the spouse.
Be like, I don't know what my kid's doing.
He's talking about Barry Bonds cards, but he's rolling dice.
I forgot a big fuck.
I was going to wear my damn jersey on here.
I have an Eagles jersey in my bag.
I have to wear the Eagles.
Can I go change?
Yeah.
Go.
He's like, I'll be right back.
Bro, what was this?
I got to look at what this card game was called
holy shit i forgot about this god my childhood is shrouded in mystery i don't remember half of it
wait what was my mob card game original like i'm a
dice Dice.
Oh my God.
Here, the nostalgia.
What is this?
What is this?
This has got the numbers on it.
Was it?
There's a, what is this called?
In the early 2000s, Wizards of the Coast published a baseballemed trading card game called MLB Showdown.
Look, I did it.
Oh, my God.
That's the first game I played.
Heroes Quest.
Hero Quest.
Oh, my God, bro.
This is the coolest thing in the world. I forgot about this.
Okay, it's not the cool.
That's the original game I played.
Dude, you never heard of Hero Quest?
No.
This is 89. I might have heard of Hero Quest, actually. Bro, this is like. Here, you never heard of HeroQuest? No. This is 89.
I might have heard of HeroQuest, actually.
Bro, this is like...
There we go.
Are you an Eagles fan?
I got to rep it.
2-0.
2-0.
Next game on Monday.
Not a Bucs fan?
Nope.
Nope.
You know the worst part is?
You know the worst part is?
I grew up not a fan of football at all.
I do know that.
The only reason I was 14 years old,
and I saw the Mark Wahlberg Eagles movie,
and that's what made me an Eagles fan.
Wasn't he coming in for a walk-on?
It was a walk-on tryout.
He walked out there.
He ends up making the team,
and ends up being one of the best players on the team.
Oh, my God.
I forgot.
Always sounding Philly, one yep but yeah I started me that
that's the only reason I started liking football I didn't play football till my
freshman year in high school that's yeah I played football from like fuck fourth
grade up until you know and then throughout high school I was a Dallas
fan though because I really I loved fuck Emmitt Smith Drake man like I was I
lived in Vermont we didn't have our own Troy Aikman. I lived in Vermont.
We didn't have our own team.
It was either everybody liked the Patriots or the Giants.
Deion Sanders.
That was a stacked team.
Yeah, dude.
That team was a fucking powerhouse.
What about Deion Sanders right now?
What is he doing now?
Or not Deion Sanders.
I said Deion Sanders.
I'm an idiot.
Oh, my gosh.
The guy who's coaching at Colorado.
Ha!
Coach at who?
Colorado?
Isn't it Colorado?
I don't know.
Bro, I'm the worst sportsman in the world. I don't do college or anything. I've never been to college. I didn't't it Colorado? I don't know. Bro, I'm the worst
sportsman in the world.
I don't do college
anything.
I've never been to college.
I didn't go to college.
I don't know this shit.
I didn't go to college either.
He dropped out.
I barely graduated
and then we joined the army.
The three names I know
in all of sports.
Deion Sanders,
Emmitt Smith,
and Troy.
That's it.
That is my entire
knowledge base
of sports.
And I love baseball
I
Play I played against bloody I'm lying is rare. Oh, I played well so growing up like
Vladimir Guerrero jr.. That's his son. Yeah fucking Mexican vampire? No. Okay. All right.
All right.
Okay.
So.
You cannot say that's not a Mexican vampire name.
I can't because I know I've seen him.
He's like, come on.
I want to play the game.
Okay.
Go.
So.
All right.
So my dad obviously takes the baseball very serious.
Yep.
When I was eight years old or seven years old
my brother was 10 my dad's like y'all gonna be professional athletes so what i'm gonna do is
i'm gonna i'm gonna i can't talk like that what i'm gonna do is i'm gonna move us from kentucky
backwoods all the way to jacksonville florida and take a whole new job just for you guys to be able to play baseball in a better state.
Damn.
That's what he did.
Okay, the Game Boy thing don't feel so bad anymore.
He was.
It's still shitty.
Since I was a little kid, I remember we were at the doctor's office.
I don't remember, but I was told.
We were at the doctor's office and my mom, you know, she's like, he's eating everything.
He's fucking.
I was 10 pounds, whatever ounce.
When I came out the womb,
I was a fat motherfucker.
And my doctor was like,
yeah,
it was huge.
And my doctor was like,
he's going to be,
he's going to be anywhere from six foot six to six foot eight.
And my mom was like,
no way.
My dad heard that and went,
Oh,
this is my moment.
Took a negative and turned it into a positive.
Yeah.
So he moves us to Jacksonville, puts us on the best teams.
We didn't have much money for anything,
but we had enough money for me to go to baseball.
Yeah.
So always on the best teams.
We ended up moving around and whatever.
And then a place called Spruce Creek,
that's my high school I went to,
we heard that was the best baseball team.
So that's where I went to high school.

milkman joke about me all the time
I'm the run of my family my fucking father
too they're all 6465
tall motherfucker
this is bullshit
dude that's so awesome of your dad
to do that's like one of my weak spots is watching.
It's being a dad and then also putting all that for your kid to succeed.
And then you growing up, and I guarantee appreciating the fuck out of that.
Oh, man.
Because I was fucking like everything else.
Fuck it.
How was your father's reaction when you made so it's cool man because my you know my
parents they they wanted so much debt just getting to getting like you know because again we don't
come i didn't come from much at all you know so like they they were so much debt just getting us
to what we were doing i remember my you remember my dad way down the road told me that
he sold his
class ring, him and my mom sold their class ring,
so I could go to the biggest tournament of the year.
You know? Like, pretty cool shit.
You guys are going to start crying here.
I know, dude. I'm like, dude, dad stuff's like
my biggest weakness.
Yeah, he's badass.
Oh, this man is off!
I don't have kids. I'm selfish. It's okay.
On 5'10", you're stacking up to 6'8", right now. Man is oh yeah, he's awesome. I don't have kids. I'm selfish. It's okay. Oh five ten you
Stacking up to six eight right now
I can't deal it so yeah so he sells his stuff and and then you know i end up his big his first problem with mississippi state mississippi state if you're not a college baseball fan that is like
yeah it's up you know that's the big dogs like that is like, you know, that's the big dogs. Like that is like the MLB of college when it comes, you know,
there's UF, FSU, Mississippi State.
You know, those are the big boys.
And when I got, so it was originally 85% scholarship, which is unheard of.
75 is like crazy.
It's not like football.
Football, you can get four rides.
It's like, oh, whatever.
With baseball, you have 11.5 scholarships to spread across 35
kids sometimes more so 11 and a half to spread across 35 and they gave me a one of those 11 and
a half which is unheard of so it was originally 85 and then um my coach coach cohen he ended up
taking an ad job athletic director and then andy kinizaro came in, which is a whole other story.
Andy Canizaro came in, and I was like, this isn't cool.
My agent at the time, because I knew I was going to get drafted,
my agent was like, ask for more scholarship.
So I ended up getting 95.
Damn.
Which is a full ride.
So you paid like $100 for all the college?
I didn't go to college.
Wait.
I never went to college.
I did all this and never even went.
Oh, so you skipped?
I got drafted out of high school.
Just turned 18.
Went to pros.
Fuck.
Yeah.
Your dad fucking what?
Did he cry?
Okay, so it was bittersweet.
You ain't better cry, will you?
I would have cried, dude.
You were fucked today.
Ryan ain't going to be a pro baseball player.
So it was bittersweet.
But something else.
Assassin. Yes. So I remember bittersweet. But something else. Assassin.
Yes.
So I remember my senior year, you can laugh.
It's pretty fucking funny.
So I end up, you know, I'm on top draft list.
You know, my name's getting called early in the year.
And, you know, I was up 95, 96 in the summer.
Well, I don't know, but I'm pretty sure I tore my UCL at some point in my summer year.
And going into my senior year, my first game I had about probably anywhere from 25 to 35 professional scouts. So they come out, collared shirt, team name on the fucking collared shirt, khakis with a radar gun and a notepad writing everything down.
Okay?
So I'm seeing all these people and I'm like, it's my time to shine.
Like, let's go.
First pitch, 86. Which in baseball terms, that's like. That'm like, it's my time to shine. Let's go.
First pitch, 86, which in baseball terms, that's like someone expecting you to whip a 12-incher,
and you show up with a four and a half.
It's bad.
So I end up throwing 86, and for the next three games, I couldn't throw hard at all.
So they chalked it up to like, oh, it's early season arm he'll be fine and then I ended up you know we had a huge game against a guy named
Logan Allen who's currently in the big leagues right now for the Angels and uh or I'm sorry not
the the Guardians and uh me we had a game versus him and we were like the big names in the state
of Florida and me and him were just going back and forth i was up to like 96 that day he was 94 but he's a lefty which is crazy
and uh yeah so i i ended up get drafted but you know everyone thought i was hurt and on top of
that they heard what about my grades which it's a whole nother subject you're a strong student okay so we got to go back in time again
okay brain so i was in middle school ridges i was in middle school
wow look at this show off he went to middle school okay wow i was in middle school fucking
money bags and i wasn't always like super tall i was was like middle school, like 5'6".
But I was fucking...
Bro, I went to high school at 5 feet tall.
Okay, but...
These guys are like, I wasn't always a fucking freak.
Eli is 5'6".
I'm not a freak.
So in third grade, I was 5'8".
Like a normal kid.
No, okay.
Three children.
So I was big enough to where it was like I was a big kid,
but I wasn't big enough to where anybody was scared of me.
I was big.
I was that big.
Okay, okay, okay.
I was big and I was fucking, I was husky.
I was fat.
So, you know, all the kids would fuck with me, right?
Relentlessly.
And I was a pussy.
I didn't want to.
You didn't want to eat them?
Yeah, I didn't want to fight them, you know?
So they'd come up to me and they'd fucking, you know,
they would call it the five, you ever heard of the five-finger star
where they slap you in the back and then. Yeah. So I, every day, every day someone would do this to me. Oh, you know, they would call it the five-finger star where they slap you in the back.
So every day.
Every day someone would do that to me.
Oh, he should have killed somebody.
So I finally came home one day and I was, you know, I was just, hey, I was upstairs playing Call of Duty.
And I had a black eye.
And my dad's like, what happened?
And I'm like, you know, basically I had to tell him I got fucking, I got bullied.
And I was like, you know, basically I had to tell him I got fucking, I got whooped. And I was getting bullied.
And he was like, you got to start standing up for yourself.
Because I ain't going to have no son of mine coming home and getting whooped
and not standing up for himself at least.
Next day I went to school, got my ass beat.
I stood up for myself.
So I started going through the YMCA for karate class.
You know what I mean?
And learning karate didn't help me.
That's weird.
But that summer,
that summer,
I went from 5'6 to 6'1 in seventh grade.
Did that help?
I started whooping ass.
Some of these guys have five inches of reach
on their fucking arms.
A puberty.
A puberty, yeah.
So, you know,
I get to 6'1 1st, 7th grade.
Same kids are still fucking with me.
And I just, you know, I'm over it.
And it was to the point where I wasn't actually fighting.
You know, people would try to fight me.
I'd just be able to fucking throw them into a wall or a locker
and, like, defend myself.
Because I was so big, so strong.
I picture puberty happening.
I just be like, Kevin, stop it. Kevin, stop it.
Kevin, I'm fucking I just think
It's like
It's like fucking
Pokemon
It's a star
It's like
It's like an attack
On Titan
The fucking
Colossus Titan
Just
I remember
I was like
I was around
The same size
The same height
As my mom
And at the end
Of that summer
I was taller
Than my dad
That's crazy It was like I would go to sleep i'd wake up my knees would hurt so bad
i'd stand up i'd be like oh my god i grew i think it was almost six inches in a year because i was
no i was five feet my freshman year five one my sophomore year and then my junior and senior i
went you know to five eight to six one or2 when I got out. And that was nuts.
That is crazy.
That's insane.
You're just like every day, you're like, father, I need new clothes.
Yeah.
I went from a size 10 shoe to a size 14 and a half.
Holy fuck.
Yeah.
So, like, everything.
My whole body just fucking hurts. Yeah.
Your poor parents needed you even more.
I have plantar fasciitis in my knees.
They're like, we're poor.
Why are you grown?
You can only have 10 chicken nuggets.
We have your shoes on layaway
and you outgrew them.
You had the nuggets,
you had the fries,
that's enough.
You cannot get a double cheeseburger too.
Put his pants together.
Sew it.
Get the bed sheets.
Holy shit.
So yeah, so kids kept fucking with me.
And they did this in my middle school.
Some people, I've talked about it on stream.
Some people say that they had it at their middle school.
Some people are like, what in the hell are you talking about?
They did something called friendly fading.
Okay? Friendly fading was basically what they would say is they would be like, I want hell are you talking about they did something called friendly fading okay friendly
fading was basically what they would say is they would be like i want to fight you but i don't want
us to get suspended so i'll meet you because there was a red a blue and a yellow bathroom i'll meet
you in this bathroom to fight at this time and if you don't show up everyone around us thinks you're
a bitch so i would get someone asked me like asked me to
do that every week because you know beating up the biggest guy was the coolest thing right so i did
that sixth grade i would get my ass whooped you're unlocking core so then i get to seventh grade and
at this point i can start defending myself come i'm really big yeah so you know through trial and
error you know get my ass whooped i learned a
little something you know and uh i started being able to defend myself so i i fought a bunch of

DeAndre was about my size, but was 15 in eighth grade.
Oh, I bet.
Yeah.
Wait, wait, wait, wait. Yes. He was 15. 15 in eighth grade oh i bet yeah yes 15 in eighth grade okay so do the math yeah it's like

too they're inflatable uh alphabets so it's like hey mr a mrs b like and it's all of them and he
would get so fucking hyped like I don't know it's mad he would just be like and then they'd be like
get to the principal's office and And then we'd watch him back.
He'd be like, teared eyes.
He'd sit down gingerly as he was saying.
Just itching.
Dude, like once a week, that dude was getting his ass beat by the principal.
I was like, man, it doesn't work.
It doesn't work.
Can you believe it?
I was like, his parents, God, I feel bad for them worse.
If the principal can't control your kid. You're you're you're lost
Home ec class I'm you know we're sitting there, and you literally just be able take your phone out back then iPod
Yeah, take your iPods out and just you know do whatever back then I know
Say you'll never have your calculator on you all the time and you're like well iPod the internet for the answer to michael's mx fuck you ms mcconnell old bitch that's why math 3 failed me so yeah so we're you know i'm sitting there and i i walk out into the red bathroom to use the
restroom and i was peeing and i didn't know deandre's home that class right beside or home
whatever class was right right beside mine so he sees me walk in there he walks behind me i'm peeing
he kicks me from behind and he's like i'll see you outside motherfucker peed all over myself
not a good look i was wearing these color khakis too you can see it's just not a good look it's a
bad day i'd peed on so i walk out and what i remember was i walk out he he hits me, I fall down, I cover up,
he's hitting me, he's on top of me.
Now, our school was so bad that we had officers walking around,
but we also had volunteer security people.
She runs up, she grabs him.
She gets hit.
No, no, she grabs him, she wraps him up,
and then the principal's office is right there.
Principal comes up, grabs me.
DeAndre gets loose.
Punches me straight in my shit.
Right?
And it was one of those hits where I don't know if any of y'all got in a fight or you guys.
But you know whenever you get hit and your jaw separates a little bit and it causes that really, I don't know, it's like a ring in your ears?
It's called a concussion.
That's why you aim for it.
This is called the button in boxing.
The button works.
So he hit me right here, and I felt like my jaw dislocated for a second, and my ears rang, and I've lost my shit.
I've never lost my shit like that.
I've lost my fucking shit.
So my instinct is I i gotta get i gotta
get loose and get after this motherfucker yeah so i fucking elbow my principal
elbow my probably not taller than you no same size elbow that motherfucker on accident a completely
accidentally motherfucker like i just i was losing my shit and i went pissed you see red
elbow him lunge forward and push that motherfucker's nose into his face,
break his nose, and push it into his orbital or whatever that is.
Oh, you cracked his, like.
I shattered his nose and broke his whatever this is.
Yeah, his orbital.
Yeah!
Shattered his shit.
Sorry.
So, I get suspended indefinitely.
He gets suspended indefinitely.
His parents tried to sue me for medical costs.
Okay?
So I go to court.
And they pull up the footage.
Now, what I didn't know is,
first off,
there's a camera looking right at us.
I didn't know
when I walked out that bathroom,
he knocked me out unconscious.
He hit me.
And what I remember was
I covered up.
But I was actually like this
on the ground
for like seven to eight seconds. And he's just teeing off.
For like seven to eight seconds, and he is.
Oh, shit.
And then I come to, and that's when I covered up.
Yeah.
So the judge stops the footage and is like, just basically threw it out.
And she's like, you could have killed him.
Like, did you guys know?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
When you're unconscious and you're hitting them like that, you can cause severe brain damage.
Yeah.
Or cause a seizure or whatever. Anything them they're terrible so court case gets thrown
out and because no i didn't like i i maybe looking back i should have but i don't give a fuck but um
so i end up you know principal basically like this isn't the first time i understand your son
was a victim this time yeah but this isn't the first time he's gotten in a fight we are either going to expel you or you need to go yeah like you don't have
a choice so i went in online school and that's when i started going like this so i'm fine guys
so eighth grade i decide you know i had to write a letter to get in back into the school system, and they gave me a buddy.
A buddy.
Deontay?
No, about a six foot eight.
They called it a guardian who would walk me to class
and make sure I didn't get in any more fights
in the new school.
And this lasted until I was in high school.
So everyone around me thought
that there was something wrong with me
because I had this guy walking me to class.
And here's the even best part is I was putting the different classes.
I was putting fucking reading class.
You were in the other-
Yeah, yeah.
I was at the fucking special classes, man.
Because you were angry.
Because I had anger issues. That's were angry. Because I had anger issues.
That's what they said.
I had anger issues.
So they put me in.
I had Algebra 1 for three years in high school, man.
Was it from the anger?
Or was Algebra hard?
No, man.
I don't know.
It sounds like Algebra was hard.
It was one of those things where it was like, he's a bad kid.

It was from my anger they held me back
and they put me in Algebra 1 every time.
You're among friends here.
We're in age 2, my man.
So anyway, I was like, in my school it was like, okay, so your teacher is going to be your head coach.
Your history is going to be your pitching coach.
Your science is going to be your bench coach.
All of my classes were either coaches or, you know, coaches of other sports.
Did they actually know that stuff or did they just see it?
Oh, they knew exactly.
Yeah, they knew my background and whatever.
No, did they know history?
Oh, yeah, they taught history classes.
Okay.
But they made sure I was in those classes because.
I thought they were like.
If anything breaks out, there was people there to make sure I.
They had the athletic. Yeah, they had the people there to make sure i i they got they had the
athletic yeah they had the athletic ability to hold me down wait i'd never gotten a fight like
i got one fight in high school but like overall like it was never about that it was just i was
bullied like crazy i guess i was just trying to defend myself and you know bullying doesn't exist
in the american school system i don't know what you're talking about oh yeah no no it's all fake
and propaganda we don't we don't hear that ever i was never bullied in high school well people look at me and they're
like oh you're too big to get bullied oh my god you have i was like a baby giraffe you know like
i was the easiest to fucking mess up dude yeah you're uncoordinated in your life that's what
i'm saying i got a chin of a newborn child a strong gust of wind yeah and knocked out yeah man god damn
bro i was just getting fucked up but yeah so in so i got fucked up and whatever i get to high
school i realize i'm really good at sports and you know i'm big i'm athletic yeah and then i
finally grew into my body and then that's whenever i started being really fucking good at sports yeah
started being pretty
good and when you have everyone they're just scouting you and all the other people are like
damn we suck we are not getting well luckily luckily at the schools i played at there was
always really really good baseball players like all my teammates that's so wild to me i'm from vermont we we don't yeah that's where
we had uh what was the philadelphia uh the flyers um why are you looking at me hockey okay like we
had we had one uh something lacrosse i can't remember the only famous guy out of vermont i
swear for sports ain't shit so my high school i can't think it was fucking I hate hockey. I don't know. So when you look at me, I played football.
Mike.
Junior year.
Junior year.
What position?
Run that play.
Nose guard.
That's how good my team was.
This guy, this Mexican dude.
He's five, nine on a good day.
He's probably five, five, a buck.
Ten.
He should be the nose
yeah that was my what was that like fucking terrible running into brick walls dude yeah
i remember like i forget what team god yeah there was only one game it worked and i remember because
they were like eli when i was a shy kid they're like eli you lead the the win whatever because
it was like one of the few games we won.
They're like, lead the cheer.
I was like, let's go.
And I was so embarrassed because I was like,
I don't like being in front of people.
I don't like the spotlight.
Because I was so small, I could go in between everyone.
They're like, go.
Like, hike.
And I'm like, eh.
And I just sack them.
I was like, oh, this is dope.
And then I played a good team.
It was like, hike.
And then it's like the 300, you guys.
Yeah.
Bunch of me's.
Yeah, bunch of me's.
Yeah, it's just wasted.
Black and white every time.
Oh, my God.
It was like, hike.
I played rugby and football when I was in high school.
And obviously when I started playing rugby, I was very small.
I was a very small kid when I went into high school.
Like I said, five foot. I maybe weighed 100 pounds, if not less. And that's what I started playing rugby, I was very small. I was a very small kid when I went into high school. Like I said, five foot,
I maybe weighed a hundred pounds,
if not less.
And that's what I started.
When I finished high school,
I was obviously six,
one,
very large,
fast,
very bad.
And I'd been playing rugby and they kept me at the same position the whole
time.
I was a wing in rugby,
which is like a wide receiver,
whatever.
So I was,
they called me a power wing.
And I'm going up against like very tiny, very,
and they're just like, we got to tackle him.
And I'm like, come at me.
Dude, I'd have people like on my leg as I'm just like trucking down the field.
That's awesome.
Oh man, that's, that nose guard shit's fucked up.
That's funny.
The nose guards on our football teams were all huge, massive motherfucking monsters.
I know every time when I'd be like, massive, motherfucking dude. I know.
Every time when I'd be like,
why are they so unbearing?
It was literally, I just felt like,
I don't even fucking know. I think they were picking on you.
It was like, make him be the
nose guard.
It was like the Battle of Tromopoli.
And they're like, Eli, just lead the way.
But why? Why me?
These are elephants.
I can't stop one of them and just run over me i'm like oh this sucks dick i hate my life i hate sports ball
that's why i was into fighting that's it okay mlb draft okay what the fuck how did you like
oh my god yeah so so we're like oh man, it's going to be a great day.
My dad's pumped to see my name on screen.
And first round goes through, and I was projected to go anywhere from two to five.
Second round, fifth round.
So we're sitting there, and the draft's going on.
I'm seeing a bunch of guys.
So when you're at that level, you play with other guys at that level.
So I played on a team called FTB Tucci.
Now, FTB Tucci was the best team in the country whenever I was my 18 years old.
No shit.
That's crazy.
So everyone on my team are now in the big leagues, went to Division I,
baseball teams are in the minor leagues and so on and so forth.
I could rattle off 10 names right now who are in the MLB,
like what we were talking about. Vlad Aguimero jr he came and practiced with us a couple times bo bichette i played with him he's in the big leagues right now he plays for the blue jays one
of the best prospects in baseball logan allen guardian mj melendez royals you know list goes
on yeah so um i hear you know mj uh my boy gets drafted in the second round. And I'm like, damn, that's pretty cool.
Me next.
Logan Allen, third round, ends up declining it.
But gets drafted in the third round.
I'm like, here comes me.
Fourth round.
Fifth round.
Sixth round.
Seventh round.
We get to the 12th round.
And I get a call on my phone.
It's a three-day draft.
I got drafted on the third day.
12th round comes. And I'm thinking, I'm going to Mississippi State.
I'm fucked.
I can't even do simple multiplication.
Like, I got to go to college.
Because of your anger, not because of your anger.
Because of my anger.
Because of my anger.
Not.
Math was never your weak point.
And I got drafted previously.
So in the MLB draft, it's not like what people think.
Your name just doesn't come on the screen.
You're like, oh, I made money.
It's, hey, you get a cell phone call from the team or your agent.
Mine was my agent.
My agent will call me and be like, hey, in the sixth round,
I got drafted by the Kansas City Royals.
They're like, hey, the Royals called.
They want to offer you $250,000 to go in the draft.
I'm like, not enough money because I wanted $500,000. That in the draft. I'm like, not enough money.
Yeah.
Because I wanted $500,000.
That was my bottom line.

six six five three one two six zero zero to speak to an advisor free of charge then i get called in
the eighth round um by the blue jays they're like hey we want to offer you 225 i'm like i'm going
backwards no yeah then i get drafted in the 10th round and then the like, hey, we want to offer you 225. I'm like, I'm going backwards.
No.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Then I get drafted in the 10th round
and then the 12th
was to the New York Mets.
How much?
And I get offered
360,000.
Okay?
So I'm like,
okay,
it's not 500K.
It's not 250.
Like,
it's a good enough number
that my coach
for my baseball team,
um,
That's my favorite team
when I was growing up.
Really?
Yeah. So Jared,
his name's Jared Goodwin.
He calls me and he goes,
you're not cut out for college,
buddy.
And I was like,
I'll take it.
I'll take it.
I found out that they,
they found out what my grades were like.
And that's why my draft log,
that's why my draft stock tanked
was because everyone found out
that I wasn't going to college.
So my draft stock went. That's everyone found out that I wasn't going to college. So my draft stock went...
Dude, that's crazy.
So, yeah, no, the MLB...
How could they get your grades?
That feels illegal.
No, no, no.
This is how bad it is.
MLB will go to your house, right?
The different teams will go to your house.
The reason they go to your house is they'll say, we want to evaluate the person you are.
They want to see how rich you are.
They'll go to your house and they'll see where you come from.
What kind of,
you know,
uh,
background you have,
how much money you have,
because the more money you have,
the more leverage you have because rich people don't need more money.
Yeah.
But if like,
for example,
some people be like,
Oh,
well this guy came from nothing.
That guy was so good that they had to draft him before other people drafted
them.
I was so stupid that they knew what?
They had no competition.
I just like offer him 250.
And I guarantee when you're like, no.
And they were like, what?
This boy can't do a routine.
Which team you wanted to go to?
The Cubs.
And that was just, that's a whole, like, it's a sad sob story.
Okay, okay, okay.
But the Cubs I wanted to go to, my buddy in high school passed away of cancer. And that's the cubs i wanted to go to my buddy in high school
passed away of cancer and that's the only reason i wanted to go to them was for him yeah um that
was the only team that i but i really like i said i wasn't a i'm not a fucking fan of baseball like
i don't give a fuck i wanted money that is so wild i love this that is so crazy that's still
one of these that's why i got them I just like you're so good
you're like
I fucking hate this sport
it's so stupid
and I don't
I play Tarkov
professionally now
fucking hate that shit
and I don't
and I don't mean
to sound like cocky
but like
I just
I was
I was gifted
yeah
I was super athletic
I was you know
I was the
smart as fuck
my
fucking intellectual as a motherfucker.
They call them the Einstein of baseball.
Einstein of my generation.
It was baseball or the Trinity Bomb.
He had two options.
Yeah, that's it.
It was fucking baseball or carts at Walmart.
Those are my only two options.
And they knew that shit.
And I knew they were like, send him $250.
He'll say yes.
No.
What?
How stupid is he?
Yeah, exactly.
Oh, my God.
Did he think that was $2?
Yeah.
That shit hurt.
That was good.
No, baseball or carts.
So, yeah, they just...
That's the title episode right there.
Baseball or cards at Walmart.
So, yeah, they knew.
And, you know, they knew that I had no other option.
But, yeah, I was always gifted with just...
I was tall.
My sophomore year, I was number two in the country for first base.
And I broke my hamate bone. But, you know, I was always, like sophomore year, I was number two in the country for first base, and I broke my hammate bone.
But I was always just super athletic.
First time what put me on the draft for pitching was I broke my hammate.
This is another story.
Broke my hammate.
Hammate is called the hook of the hammate.
It sits in your hand, and it's a useless bone.
And I mean useless.
It's like this.
It's a sesame bone, which means it's super small
and it sits on the prism of your hand and just sits there doesn't do anything doesn't literally
nothing you could cut the bitch out remove it and it it's okay your hand will be fine because it
does nothing i break mine i shatter it at a uk camp and i had surgery on it and i go to arizona
and i'm uh you know with the diamondbacks i'm a fucking 16 year old
idiot and i'm talking to the guy and he's like hey you can't pitch because you have a cast on
it was a soft cast so hard on the bottom soft at the top yeah and i said what if i didn't have a
cast on he goes we'll let you throw if you didn't have a cast on theoretically we're gonna tgi
fridays i have pictures i'll show you guys uh after the podcast but and uh i'm like all right that passion so i asked the the waiter i'm like do
you have a knife i can use that like we can't give you a a knife from the back but i was like can i
order a steak please but i have like a knife on my swiss on my my keychain swiss army knife so he
brings it out i cut the cast off i still have the blue die for the blue surgery die you know my stitches are still in yeah next day i throw 96 i was a sophomore oh yeah they
were probably like okay that's what put me on the that's what put me on the radar that's fucking
cool man yeah it's and the reason i did that was and again i i have pictures i'll show you guys but
i was in an airport i know the stories just keep that's what we're here for yeah if there's not a
tangent i don't want it so i'm in an airport and again i'll show you guys pictures um and i'm
sitting across from this gentleman and i'm looking at him like i swear i know who he is
and i'm playing on my psp. We're playing Grand Theft Auto.
PSP, dad.
I didn't know those sold to anybody.
Shit.
So we're sitting there. How old were you?
Oh, man.
I mean, I broke my hand my sophomore year.
So 15, 14, 15.
Seventh grade, right?
Seventh grade.
Oh, no.
My math's pretty bad.
No, sorry.
Derry, Derry.
DeAndre.
So I'm sitting there and I'm talking with this kid and I'm like, yeah, and I'd let him play
and whatever. And this little kid runs up to this guy in front of me. I'm like, yeah, and I'd let him play and whatever.
And this little kid runs up to this guy in front of me.
He's like, you're Ken Griffey Jr.
Holy shit.
That's a name even Eli knows.
And the guy goes, no, I'm not.
And the kid goes, oh, my dad said that you were.
Walks off.
He looks at me and he's like, he'll come back.
And sure enough, kid comes back.
He signs an autograph.
So I start talking to him.
Ken Griffey Jr. had double hammy surgery.
And he was like, what happened to your hand?
And I was like, oh, I'm going to the Diamondbacks.
I'm doing a workout.
I broke my handmade bone.
He's like, I broke both mine.
I never had a cast.
So I'm sitting there, 16-year-old, 15-year-old me.
I'm like, yeah, if he didn't need a cast, I don't.
You don't.
My hand was never the same.
I ended up, my hitting went downhill.
I lost feeling in the bottom half of my hand.
Couldn't hit anymore, and that's why I started pitching.
Yeah.
And that's why you were like, King Griffey Jr., he's obviously a doctor.
Yeah, of course.
It's King Griffey Jr.
King Griffey Jr., he knows what bones I need and what I don't need.
King Griffey Jr., you ruined this beautiful man.
That's for you, King Griffey.
I'm representing him. that's for you king griffey i'm representing him that's for you
this lawsuit for 12 million dollars gonna hurt you don't talk
he's not smart yeah i have i have it is funny because i in my phone i still have the pictures
you can see the timeline of like me taking a picture on my way to the airport me with a cast on with King Griffey
Jr. Very next picture in a TGI Fridays. You can see ketchup bottle cast is being cut off
Blue dye surgery fucking there's still
The stitches in my hand the whole nine yards is just
TGI Fridays. Yeah, just living the fucking dream. It's fucking living it, brother.
Father's reaction.
Okay, so I get drafted and my dad...
We're gunning into what I care for.
The dad's reaction, he's like,
and then I met King Griffey Jr.
Give a shit!
What'd you get? Did he cry?
I wouldn't have cried.
I wouldn't have cried.
Funny enough, so I get drafted and, you know.
He's going to go home and fucking cry.
He's going to blog about it.
I hope my son can tell a better story.
So the worst part is yet to come because on day two, I am for sure getting drafted in my mind.
My agent's mind.
We all think I'm getting drafted.
So what did I do?
I let three of the local news journals come to my house and sit on my sofas and watch the draft with me as I go undrafted on day two.
And they were all looking at me, like I'm so sorry you know like
They were like I'm so sorry
Like the words like the movie of like just the worst case scenario
So then on day three I get drafted my dad's like
He finally did it it wasn't even like the happiness of like, yes, my dream came true.
It was like, thank goodness he was so damned.
He was so fucked. He was so goddamn stupid.
He had a 2.7 GPA.
The only comparable thing is I graduated high school, but I didn't.
Okay.
So we had obviously my entire family come for my graduation party.
I found out the day before that I didn't have a high enough math score to graduate.
I needed a 70, because my high school was fancy.
I had a 69.7 points.
So I have an issue with you, Mr. McConnell.
Still, to this day, I got my certificate two weeks
I just couldn't walk basically but my entire extended family everyone to come see the super smart Kyle come graduate
He's definitely gonna go to college because all my other shit was great. And then I didn't graduate
your graduate parts a bit of a
Bit of a downer better than mine he like dropped out oh that's good you're among friends
you're among safety i feel welcome yeah i feel welcome math is not our speed none of us here
like math it wasn't for a calculator i'd be it sounds like you'd be fucked if it wasn't for a lot of things. I just like, you're like, come on, news.
We're getting drafted today.
Yeah.
Wait, hold on.
You didn't get, you got calls to get drafted that day.
I got calls to get drafted, but I got low balled.
So I never accepted it.
Damn.
So I could have like did the ego thing, day two draft, you know,
but the thing is,
is that the reason why I got more in the 12th than I did the seventh is the
teams will pull their money together.
So a lot of people don't know this about MLB.
They absolutely screw over people with no leverage.
I mean, that makes sense.
That makes sense.
That's not MLB.
That's the US.
Let's say you're a senior in college and you're coming out of Vermont.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
You have zero leverage no you are a
21 22 year old guy who has no leverage you are coming instead of a walmart with carts it's a
trader joe's with cards exactly so they're sitting there and they're like we have you're supposed to
get drafted in the eighth round for 130 000 but because you ain't got nowhere else to go we're gonna give you four hundred and thirty five dollars and a flight to here
And that's what they get. Don't worry. We'll cover the food on the plane exactly
So they will screw over guy after guy after guy after guy
Coop up their money for someone like me or someone like they do this in every draft where it's like
I don't care what round they get drafted and I just want a lot of money yeah and that's what they'll do they'll pull it all together and
they draft no keep going yeah that's that's that's kind of wild so okay you get drafted yeah what is
like what's the next step like what do you what do you fucking do so not to keep good not to keep
me talking i just i want i'm so fucking curious about this
because this is something that's so i get i i uh you don't get the money up front you have to wait
an entire year what before you get your money that so wait wait wait how do you pay for your
you don't you know you go you work at walmart yes there's been multiple stories where it's like
you know ex-pro player who got to the
big leagues was driving for uber while he was in spring training because we don't get paid during
spring training we get like 60 a week holy shit so a year so for those who don't know in the minor
leagues a year you make around 10 to 11 000 a year that is yeah and so um whatever you're playing
like you know you have to pay for your own apartment you have to pay for your own apartment. You have to pay for your own food.
After that, you have nothing.
There's no money.
You're spending money.
There's nothing like that.
You just have enough to pay.
And the apartments, for those who are like, well, $11,000, that might be enough.
That's not enough.
All of these teams are in main areas that are usually of an inflated economy.
Super expensive.
Yeah, yeah.
Right?
So for us, we were in St. Lucie, Florida,
right outside of Miami.
Not fucking cheap.
Not fucking cheap.
So, you know.
And you were at this point 18.
18.
No job experience,
and you're supposed to be expected to.
That's kind of wild.
So again, if it wasn't for my parents,
you know, giving me money
and letting me use their credit card or whatever,
I would be, you know, fucked.
Fucked again.
Again, his father, Eli,
stepping up and being a real
champion to make
sure our boy here could really
live his dream.
His slow son could fucking get ahead. I love it.
I just like your dad's just like,
he's academically...
But damn it, he can throw
a baseball. Damn it, he's huge, and I appreciate it.
So I get into the locker room first day,
and baseball people will appreciate this.
They start bullying you again.
Not this time.
He's in the red bathroom, bitch.
So I get into the locker room, and my dreams have become a reality.
Names like Noah Syndergaard, Jacob deGrom, Tim Tebow, you know where Cesped is.
Jerry is familiar.
Tim Tebow played for us from 2016 to 2019.
The football player?
Football player.
He went and played baseball.
Holy shit, I forgot.
Yeah, you're right.
He played with us.
I remember a sport.
He broke his ankle or something.
He was in rehab.
So all these guys, they wouldn't have been there because they would be in the big leagues or at their affiliate, but all of them were hurt.
Syndergaard had UCL.
Jacob deGrom had something with his hand or his arm.
And Jerry's familiar.
And all these guys, you know, assessment is his knees.
They were all hurt.
So I walk in and I'm like, all these who i've idolized jacob's from my
area noah looks just like me just skinnier and better looking you know you got tebow my idol
as a kid like yeah all these fucking people right in front of me i'm like holy shit this is heaven
right yeah then i fucked it all up picked a fight a fight with T-Bone first. No, no. So even worse, even fucking worse, I walk in to the training room and they go over our
evaluations, right?
They check out our arm.
They put us through exercises.
We go through a workout, making sure we're mobile, we can move.
You work up sweat.
So I'm 18 years old, young kid.
I've never been in a group shower
you know never seen another man's dick in a shower some people get hard so i take off my
clothes expecting like single stall shower single stall showers i walk in and i realize my idols
are all naked in the shower.
Right now, I want to let you know, our YouTube comments are like, that is my dream.
I want to be naked in the shower with Batty and Eli.
I know you all want it, you freaks.

Thank you.
I'm going to put it in my head.
Dude. Nice dick.
No, I didn't compliment his fucking cock.
That's not true.
You should have complimented his dick.
That's not...
I didn't like me after work.
I was so friendly.
The rest of the year, I was the guy who would shower between everybody.
Wait, you did it multiple times?
No, no, no. That's just what I was labeled. I was that fucking guy, I was the guy who would shower between everybody. Wait, you did it multiple times? No, no, no.
That's just what I was labeled.
I was that fucking guy.
I was that guy the rest of the year.
That's rough.
That's rough as hell, bro.
I would walk in the shower, and they'd look at me, and they'd be like, here he goes again.
And I'd be like fucking in the corner.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I wouldn't even turn the heat on the shower.
I'd be showered cold as a fucking punishment.
It's worse now.
He just stares at us in that cold water.
We watch his balls retract, and he just cries and looks at us.
God, that kid's weird.
Yeah, man.
They fucking, dude, it was a terrible start.
Yeah, that's a rough way to go.
That was a strong start.
Terrible start. Yeah. That's a rough way to go. Strong start. Terrible start.
So, yeah.
So, dude, that happened.
And then, you know, we just fucking.
I mean, what else could happen that was worse than that?
Nothing.
It was all up from there.
And then, you know, I got fucking hurt.
Hopefully not up in the shower.
But, yeah.
So, dude, I, you know, started playing. and then injury, injury, injury, injury, injury,
injury, per sports happens.
It was all freak injuries.
It was all freak accidents.
My, I tore my, my first injury was my knee, my meniscus.
I was talking to my, my pitching coach.
He was a closer for Greg Maddox, Phil Regan.
Yep.
And I was in a squat and I was like, yeah, it sounds good.
There goes my meniscus.
And you will never get shit from me for free like jumping out airplane remember yeah oh my god that's right yeah so Eli did a whole bunch of uh skydiving there's the word yeah we got our free
free flying certs in like four days it was like hey you've never jumped out of a plane okay you're
jumping out of a plane 25 times and free flying from 12,500 feet altitude.
So it was like, I had, bro, if you want a weird experience,
it's like, okay, you're going to do one tandem
where you jump on somebody's back.
You're on their chest.
Yeah, I'm on their chest.
And then it's a free jump.
Oh, dude, I could.
Bro, it is.
I'd shit myself midair.
Bro, it is. You shit myself midair. Bro, it is.
You see a flying turd.
I assure you, you'll shit your way up.
That is the scary point.
It's so crazy.
And then walking up and you're like, huh.
Yeah, I can know.
But.
What?
Tell us what happened on you guys when you were getting ready to jump.
Oh, I have.
The previous.
With the person. Yeah, yeah, yeah so bro there's it was real quick i've told this story like
day one was okay hey we're going we're jumping hey fucking this is a video of a dude from the
day before don't look at where you don't want to go he stared at the metal con x's and you have the video
of him going like this so when you're landing you are landing at 30 to 50 miles an hour like those
fucking shoots well you know when you see people come in you are coming in at 30 to 50 miles an
hour your body's not meant to stop bro if you want to terrifying because they don't they can't teach
you how to land they can like show they can, okay, you see what they're doing?
And when you watch them coming in like cars, it's like, you're like, wait, hold the fuck on.
Why are they coming in so fast to the ground?
Nope.
So, homeboy, it's like driving your car.
Wherever you're looking at, your body's going to naturally go that way.
It's like pitching probably.
Yeah, 100%.
You're like, hey, I'm going to throw at that fucking mitt.
I'm throwing at that.
Your body moves linear.
Bro went like this.
Legs out, 30 miles an hour, didn't flare, just fucking conics.
He bent in the middle, conics.
I'm guessing he didn't live.
No, he lived.
Shattered his legs and femur just went boom day oh or the next day we're jumping this is the day after our first jumps we
did five jumps day one fucking lady old lady they're breaking a record hits a dust devil and
dust you know like the dust tornadoes absolutely terrifying because
your instructors would be like miss them don't go near them and you're like how do you know if
they're up that high we kind of don't um what what happens if i'm approaching one uh try to go
through it fast or avoid it or a turn actually it really doesn't matter. It's going to do what it wants.
So,
fucking old lady, 60 feet up,
hits one foot, and then she flares. You hold a flare,
your parachute crumples.
60 feet up.
Yeah, so she died.
She's fucking. Listen, I'm pretty sure there was no
quarter flip in that one. She was just
dead.
And then it're just like,
fuck, okay, everyone keep going.
There's no downtime.
It is instantaneous.
Throw the blanket
over her. We got to keep going, guys.
It was fucking weird.
But all this jump in,
that night
we land. We're fucking cruising. It's about dinner time. I, blah, blah, boom. That night, we land.
We're fucking cruising.
It's about dinnertime.
I'm like, okay, sweet.
I go to pick up my bag.
Fucking feel like terror.
I was like, ah, what the fuck?
I tore my quad, bending over to pick up my fucking backpack.
And I was like, what the fuck?
So I'm like, huh, that really hurt.
That really didn't feel good.
No, and I'm like, dinner, I'm like huh that really hurt that really didn't feel good no and i'm like
dinner i'm like good and then afterwards docs there uh i'm like do you have any painkillers
my leg and i'm like limping lipping he's like what'd you do i was like bent over to get my
backpack felt a tear yeah and i was like i don't know what's going on wrong that was it that was
literally how i fucked my leg up for like two weeks i'm
gonna jump again was one just bending over yeah landing on the i've been there all day long to
fucking almost die yep and then that's fine so with me i tear my meniscus and then um i'm coming
back from my meniscus tear i i'm throwing practicing on our pitches. I throw a curveball, fill a pop, tear my UCL by like 15%.
So I get PRP, which is, for those who don't know what PRP is,
they extract blood from your body.
They put it in this little thing that spins it.
White blood cells raise to the top.
They extract.
Put it back in for healing.
Yeah.
Oh, that's crazy.
And they like thick needle straight into the ligament.
Like 18-gauge needle. Yeah. And then you can feel it straight into the ligament. Like 18 gauge needle.
Yeah.
And then you can feel it pierce the ligament and they inject it straight in.
So.
Nope.
I had that, but it was only, you know, two shots.
So I get done with that.
I'm about.
Now, again, I just got drafted two weeks, tore my meniscus, you know, out season or off season.
Yeah.
Then I come back second day, tear my UCL.
Okay.
Not the best start to being a professional athlete.
Out for six weeks, six to eight.
It took me nine.
Come back, I'm on week eight to coming back and we're running sprints.
Okay.
And one of my teammates, Anthony K, who's a big leaguer.
Fuck you, K. Challenges me to like,, he's like, you're not working hard enough.
I can beat you and I'm slow.
You're not fucking running.
I fuck you, Kay.
I'll run you.
So we run down the line.
We go to turn a step.
I go to launch back my heel because we wear metal cleats, goes straight into a sprinkler
head.
So I went forward, my body
didn't, and I snapped
my hamstring.
So your hamstring's connected by
three major things.
I'm going to flick you off. I tear both of them
where just the main middle one
sat there connected and the other two
just completely tore off.
My entire leg from the top of my ass to the bottom of my knee, black.
Oh, instant.
Couldn't move it, couldn't do nothing.
Had to ride in a Prius to the fucking hospital.
You probably just fucking failed the Prius.
I had both of the handles.
I was riding like this, trying to fucking get...
Pissed, just anger and pain.
And I was so mad because I was like,
I finally got out of rehab almost. I was ready to play tear my fucking hammy so that was
i mean anyone who's had a hammy tear or leg tear of any kind understands the amount of work the
amount of like fucking like it's the worst i've torn short wall shoulders the worst but i've
torn shoulder elbow knee hammy hammy's one of the worst ones the worst ones. If it's a full tear, you're licking it.
People don't know this.
When you tear a muscle tendon or anything
like that, you are, like they go in
they have to reattach it to the fucking
bone.
They're like, open up.
They reattach it to
the bone in order for it to
operate. When you tear your onocollateral ligament
they'll just take the bitch out, take it from your knee or your arm and then they'll just basically make you a new one
so winning it yeah they sew it sew it on yeah like a rubber band bro i'm glad i just broke my brain
all this other stuff sounds like work man when you break your brain you just kind of are fucked
like it's like all right it's broken now you gotta deal with it
with that shit
that sounds like work
yeah
bro
so
I was out for six months
for that
six months
six months
yeah I was
fucked
what do you do for six months
you game
I'm rehabbing
you play video games
I'm rehabbing my game
so
I tear my
I tear my hammy
so I would go to the field
rehab
throw
and I'd be out of there by noon,
and I'd just be playing fucking Fortnite or Rust all day long.
So yeah, that was that.
And then I come back, tore my UCL again.
Holy shit.
And then I finally was able to play.
Played in 2019, had a great year.
Was slated to go to AA,
and then the Mets sold their team to a new ownership
which meant all my bosses who i had a great relationship with were all gone then we heard
of this weird sickness called covid oh and then yeah so then the whole 2020 was done yeah so what
happened was is before the mets sold they were trying to raise up my arm slot
so i threw from i can't really my right arm's dead but i threw from about right here righty
and they want to meet up here because like we talked about like you said wherever you look
that's where your body's going and i was throwing across my body so they wanted me to throw this way
so to be able to create that linear movement, they put my arm slot higher.
Really?
You can't even do that shit?
It's like that.
Really?
Yeah, it's fucked up.
Holy shit.
So they wanted my arm slot to be higher.
So I'm in a bullpen, and I did weeks of training, and my arm's hurting, but I end up touching 101.
And then they're like, all right, Hutch, you're good.
And I'm like, one more, one more.
You big fucking idiot. one and then you know they're like all right hutch you're good and i'm like one more one more you big rotator cuff gone labrum torn just just tear the whole shebang and then uh covid happens i get cold shoulder which you know what that is you don't move it you lose it um box and uh
everyone was shut down i couldn't rehab yeah everywhere was shut down because of covid and then they finally opened up like after the year was done like four to five months later
it was too late yeah so i ended up getting released from the mets picked up by the white socks and i
couldn't hardly do anything i ended up i think i touched 94 once in the next day i couldn't move
yeah i didn't know oh man cultural we never that in boxing. I know exactly what you're talking about.
What do you call it?
No.
It's that off period where you can't hit as hard.
Like, oh, I'm not using it proper.
Like, I literally, in the last two weeks, my shoulder's back to where it's like boxing conditioning.
Because I'm like, ah, I got that snap back in my left finally.
And I can feel it.
I just never knew the term for it.
Cold shoulder.
Because I know because in my head I can feel that snap and I know when it's hitting proper.
I'm like, ah, it's back.
Okay, there we go.
And it takes time.
The reason we call it cold shoulder is because if you ever like grab, put your hand in ice,
you pull it back out, your hand's numb.
Yeah.
That's what cold shoulder is.
It's like your muscle's numb.
You can't really feel what it's doing.
Yeah, it's a weird feeling.
You can't control how hard you're throwing, how soft you're throwing, how you throw stuff. Yeah, for sure. Holy shit what it's doing yeah it's a weird feeling you can't control how hard you're throwing how soft you're throwing how you throw stuff yeah for sure just holy shit
it's like it's awkward it's this weird feeling and you're like every time like even like for us
it's like the connection but it's not like did i hit it hard did i not hit it hard did yeah it's
the sound and how it like resonates and i'm like yeah like today i was actually thinking i was
hitting a heavy bag i was like oh okay like everything's back to movement and it's precise and i can feel the snaps but i
never knew why when i take these extended periods of time off or injuries your muscles they you know
they get cold yeah yeah and it sucks you know this is stupid and then on top of that you have
you know i tore my shoulder so i have scar tissue
building up yeah and anyone who deals with scar tissue knows that it's a bitch yeah and yeah you
know it's just fucking ended my career okay well fucking and now you game yeah you do role playing
i do all kinds of stuff i yeah yeah so i like i i role play so that goes if we want to segment into that
so that
so the way it started
was
in
2020
COVID year probably
me and
Summit started
playing together
so we
never heard of him
Summit 1G
Summit 1
nah
I know
you guys probably
sounds short
you fucking know about him
angry
something about a monitor
I don't know
he punches monitors actually but How do you meet him? Angry, something about a monitor? I don't know. He punches monitors, actually.
But how do you meet?
Randomly?
Yeah, so Summit, he joined this GTA server called NoPixel.
Oh, yeah, NoPixel.
That blew up in 2019.
That small community server.
Yeah, I've never heard of it.
So he joins this NoP note pixel server and we played
before on fortnite um and that was like you know i asked him to play he figured out who i was and
then was like yeah we can play a game or something yeah and um bo uh one of our friends who ended up
passing away last or shit man it's been what three years now he passed away um he you know he was in
some chat a lot you know basically a mod he was like hey you know he saw me talking his chat he's like hey you should come and try the
server out you'd really enjoy it yeah you know i was an athlete and i was like yeah yeah i'll come
try it out so me and someone started hanging out every day you know not whenever i first rolled up
because he didn't know who i was yeah so for like a year we would like you know both be rpn around
each other but you know i didn't want to be like hey this is me
we ran into each other
you know I didn't want
to be that guy
small table
high fences bitches
yeah so for like
for a year
that's funny
that's exactly what it is
small table
high fences bitches
yeah so I didn't
you know I didn't want
to be that guy
being like hey
we know each other
so for a year
I didn't even talk to him
nothing
I just played the game
and I really
had a lot of fun
so I kept playing it
and then naturally we ran into each other we started hanging out we both like the same shit
we have the same you know likes and ideologies and whatever yeah and we started playing every day
every single day i get out of practice i'd log on me and him would go racing hanging out
and then one day pub PUBG. Fucking explodes.

So fucking dope.
And that was your
part of your big break.
You were like,
Oh, it was 100% my big break.
Yeah, 100%.
You know, I was like,
Tens of viewers.
Before that, no, no, no.
So I was at tens,
but you know,
GTA RP and No Pixel,
everyone's a content creator.
Yeah.
Right?
So I would get,
bleed viewership
because I was always that guy
who was actually playing the video game living through my character so i would fuck with people so much so fucking
much and no one knew i was an athlete i didn't tell anybody so everyone was like this random
fucking guy is robbing me like who the fuck does he think he is so people were curious and i didn't
tell my stream i was a professional athlete either so oh really you kept that kind of no i've kept that secret for a year and a half two years i had a lot of
baseball stuff i had a lot of baseball stuff on my stream but no one everyone just thought i was a
fan just like baseball for sure yeah so um yeah so no one really knew and then one day i told people
and that gained some traction but i was like two three four hundred viewers yeah and um that was on like a really really good day but then when i started playing with summit um
you know my viewership hundreds turned into thousands exactly and especially on our piece
or i remember ashlyn ash ashlyn i do i remember yeah we've talked about it for a while ashlyn i
knew ashlyn before she went to No Pixel.
I'm watching that overnight.
Yeah.
Because she was- She was talented.
She was really, really good.
But she was doing like tens of viewers at that point.
No Pixel, I remember her character, whatever.
Thousands.
She blew up.
Dude, it's like-
She was hysterical.
It was a fucking overnight sensation.
I was like, oh, what is this?
And that's the first time I've seen RP. I'm mad. I no pixel and never did it yeah i never got into it i was just like
yeah i mean and it was that it was way different back then you go oh yeah you know you like it was
just it was crazy and it was so much fun and you know it was crazy so you know my i mean it was
the new the new gtrp explosion and it held you know so
you know my viewership went up and then we were both frustrated so we played pub g
and then that pub g led into daisy which led into tarkov yeah and then tarkov was when my stream i
went from you know five six seven hundred subs to twenty five three thousand subs yeah absolutely and it became like a reality so then i go back to to gta i'm at like
fuck five to seven thousand viewers at this point damn my stream is like at its peak and then i get
hit up by the white socks and i'm like i i would kill i would like i would kill myself inside
because if i didn't go for one more time dude the white i'd be letting everyone down
you know i don't even do sports yeah like i would i would like mentally i don't know if i could because if I didn't go for it one more time, I'd be letting everyone down.
I don't even do sports.
Yeah.
Mentally, I don't know if I could recoup from that.
So I was like, I'm going to go and I'm going to play.
I'm going to try it one more time. Okay.
I feel opposite.
I hear Eli saying that.
Eli.
No, so for the sports, if the military was like,
you can be a Delta guy, I'd be like, no.
No, I did this.
Okay, that's what I was wondering.
I've done military no but on my side five million for a year 40 grand to get shot at for a year
compared to that different story yeah now
even now i'm like tier one you wouldn't just but so for me it was like it was like what we
talked about before like yeah the injuries suck and like the pay was terrible and like
to give you an idea during covet but it's also a lifelong dream you've been building up to exactly
and you can't say no wait how many years into covet is this this is the covet year you know
so you've had like a year of downtime right yeah when my streamer
blew when my stream career blew up so you're out of a year downtime so you're you get the call and
you're like this you look in the mirror and you're like fuck yeah so so during covid not been trained
yeah like three months after covid hit you know we thought we were going to be playing so i thought i had a paycheck coming in now 360 000 turns into
280 after taxes now believe it or not an 18 year old kid can blow through that money pretty
fucking quick pretty fucking quick especially with those high aprs listen i let's just say
let's just say let's just say In two years I was dirt broke Like
Yeah
Yeah like
I mean
I am so surprised

How much was this tape?
Four grand?
Gator's deck.
Eight grand.
I ended up swiping my card for it at the end of the night.
Because they had-
It was football night and they had the pitchers.
Y'all know that it's like a $12 pitcher of beer.
These motherfuckers are getting like six pitchers each.
Yeah, because when you said-
On me, they're just...
And I didn't know I was on the second floor.
They did it for the second and the first floor.
Because we're travels.
So everybody's like, yeah, I'm on his tab.
I'm on his tab.
So dumb choices like that.
It was the highest bar tab I've ever had.
$8,000.
Bottles.
We had everything.
We bought everything.
So, and by we, I mean me and the uf guys who i went

People hear that bar tab, they're like, there's just no way.
Think of 250 to 300 college kids all getting some math.
And the biggest bar on the UF campus.
And everyone was there because the football team was there after the game.
I have easily myself hit many $500 to $1,000 bar tabs.
Yeah.
I always say now because I don't drink.
Like, outside of this, I do not drink anymore.
Yeah, me neither.
We don't do a lot outside of this anymore because our livers hurt because we're old.
Oh, I'm the same way.
My liver's down the same way.
I haven't drank in months.
Dude, so I like.
Cheers.
Cheers to that.
Bar, bar, bar, bar, bar, bar, bar. the same way i haven't drank in months dude so i like cheers cheers to that so when i like and now

dude when we went to the fucking um where we got mimosas at um expectation our bill was every three
to six hundred dollars every fucking time And that's between three dudes.
Yep.
Three dudes.
And every time you look at it, you're like, oh, this is the normal.
Until you cut out booze and we're like, it's $100 for eight people now.

Was it Fort Lauderdale?
We'll just say St. Lucie.

Me and him had a great relationship.
He was like, you're going to get ready for AA.
You're going to be a beast.
Crush it.
And blah, blah, blah.
Then COVID hit, and I tore my shoulder.
So I was making no money.
And I had to train.
So after about probably, what, three months of COVID,
my bank count was zero.
Because my rent was $1,500.
I would get $800.
I'm missing $800.
So streaming was the way I would pay for it.
Then I had to train.
And I only had like 600, 700 subs at that point.
So I ended up stopping streaming and I became a...
Basically, I was a janitor.
Basically.
So what I would do is
I would go to barwiss methods
and um in uh boca raton shout out mike barwiss he gave me a job and i would go there and i would
clean the equipment i would do laundry i'd clean the towels and shit and then because i was doing
that they allowed me to work out for free so i did that for about a month. I would drive two and a half hours there, two and a half hours back.
On top of that.
On your lawn.
I wish.
You just took your dad's job.
You're like, I get it now.
Yeah.
So I would drive up there.
I would drive up there in my Mustang.
And then, you know,
if someone gives you a fucking shot
or something like that,
you're not going to say no to things.
You try.
So he's like,
I want you to coach a baseball team too.
So I would go there.
I would show up at 6 a.m.
for a 7 a.m. lift.
I'd show up.
I would make all the people,
Red Wings,
hockey players.
I had a bunch of guys from like the Steelers
and the Bucks
who all work out there.
You know,
we would all work out,
but I would make them like shakes before
and then shakes after,
which is like
the most humbling experience of my life because I'm a professional athlete but i'm also a fucking janitor and
everyone's bitch like i would be a middle worker i'd be like hutch i need a drink okay walk over
there get a drink for them and then i'd continue working out but it's good for you as a hundred
percent and it taught me the value of the dollar because i never learned that yep and um going to pour a little known fact when you go up port usually way worse with money
period because we're not taught how to fuck it how money works we're like
what's a dog what is this fucking this genie just puts it here that's a grow on trees i need more
i need more yeah so i would please please so i would clean the equipment
and then i would do that till about five o'clock i would go get lunch and then i would have practice
at seven i would coach the team from or help as assistant coach team from seven to like nine
o'clock i drive two and a half hours back get home at 11 11 30 go to sleep wake up do it again
did that for a month and then um and then they opened up Bar West near us, and I didn't have to do it anymore.
That was a good experience.
But for a month of my life, yeah.
I mean, like I said, it made me value the work.
Oh, yeah.
Batman.
Fuck.
Yeah, very humbling experience.
And now you're into what kind of game?
What's your favorite style?
Or what's your favorite game?
I like Tarkov.
Batty hates Tarkov. I love Tarkov. Batty hates Tarkov.
I love Tarkov, but I hate Tarkov.
Exactly.
I'm the same boat.
Tarkov made me as a streamer.
GTA gave me a platform first, and it grew me to the exposure level of streaming, but
Tarkov is what blew me the fuck up.
Yeah.
That's what made me go from making a enough to like when i
first started streaming tarkov i was in my parents garage because i just got released from the mets
had no money like me and my girl were living at our parents house your dad that's when he was like
i'm sorry i cried when you yeah you son of a bitch I rode a lawnmower for you
so I moved back in with my parents
I'm streaming out of the fucking garage
because my parents can't deal with me cursing
and the noise because they're very
Southern Baptist
so they don't like me cursing
so I'm in the garage
I'm streaming
we're in Florida sweating balls streaming
and it was the worst fucking thing
ever. Florida garage.
But then I started having
success and then I ended up
getting 25, 28, 3,000 subs
and then I was able to move myself into a apartment.
I don't feel bad for you. I feel bad
for your computer that was in a
fucking Florida garage. That poor
computer's like help
no it's even worse it's even worse it's even worse i went to best buy and got and got a computer from
best buy i'm not i'm not very like technology no way yeah i'm not very technology that's all you
had to say that exact sentence so it's become a meme in my community. I just now one of my favorite guests ever had.
I'm in technology.
I'm not very technology.
Punch.
There's your merch.
So I used to get fucking pissed because my computer would just randomly turn off.
Weird.
And I went to Best Buy. I went to Best Buy and I bought this computer.
I was like, give me the best.
This is why I have money.
Give me the best computer you have, best monitor.
Let's do it.
It would just randomly turn off.
I'd be like, what the fuck is happening?
Well, I get a sponsor by iBuyPower
and they send me a new computer.
I take my other computer, I swap it,
and I have my old computer sitting there.
My chat's like, what is that inside your computer it's fucking brown and it's like burnt
i didn't know what packaging foam was
and packaging foam for a year and change and was what? You stupid motherfucker!
Went from being like white
to like burnt brown.
I used to like always smell something
burning.
I always
thought that that was just
like what streaming did to my computer.
It just made it really hot or something.
And this all happened on stream.
People think I'm making this up. It happened on
stream. People are like, what is that in your computer oh my god that's fucking packaging foam
and they were like how did you i was like it's your boy hutch we got that change that color
changing thermal packing shit i thought it was i thought it was in there to hold everything
together you know like because if it if it wasn't what what would keep
have you never seen a computer before no it's no no before this it was always like you know
the computers were sorry with the brown case no not even that the the the the monitors with the
computer built into the monitor that was the only computer i've ever had yes yes that's the only
computer i ever had so you just and the only's the only computer I ever had. So you just looked at this
with a clear glass.
I know.
Yeah, the only other than that
was my dad's work
gave him one of the Apple ones,
which again,
was the fucking monitor
built-in computer.
So I never knew.
I never fucking knew.
I want to be mad,
but at the same time,
I understand everything
you're saying.
It makes sense.
If you don't have that experience,
how are you supposed to learn supposed to know i just picture this
oh no it wasn't like that it was like
just screaming your pc had cancer yes yes It was so bad! Run you fool!
So everyone was like,
Hutch, you could have burnt your fucking house down.
Like, you have any...
No, no, it's way worse.
You could have burnt your parents' garage.
I know!
Down.
I know!
So like, you know, I was sitting there and, you know, it's funny.
I need to let you know, at any time in the future,
if you need me to come look at your PC
Let me know I will I will fly there to make I love building PCs
Yeah, that is my favorite. Please don't burn your house. Oh, I will oh god
But yeah, so so yeah, it was fucking proud fucking it was bad bad
It was bad, and then so yeah
I got the ibuy power and then I ended up moving like a two PC set up and whatever so who built it for you
well
So I had to like I had to my my mod or like my right hand guy names Gav
He had to like on FaceTime talk me through like how to install RAM
Yeah, like that was like the hardest thing in the world. I ever done in my life right g van i couldn't make a table
we have a ram story about him
we love you g van
so yeah i just yeah he had to talk me through like how to do that shit and
you know damn it was adult legos is what i call it yeah oh i could never i grew up doing it though
i started building pieces when i was like 17 16 chair like i'm so you know what out of all the
things you could do i bet you could build a pretty good chair i don't know i mean as amish as i look
i don't think so i bet you could throw a baseball i could i could i could well i don't know i mean as amish as i look i don't think so i bet you could throw
a baseball i could i could i could well i don't know if you can anymore i can't i'm fucking
useless i have been the i've been the right line of work where i am right now what's your favorite
game like like fps is you're like it's hard tarkov tarkov's my favorite my favorite fps of all time
is tarkov i'm agree with what is your game though you have to have a game where you're like unless
it is tarkov which some rpgs sport like no my favorite you're like this is my pastime yes it's
not my streaming thing but this is my passion well yeah i mean it fuck man like i think i speak for a
lot of people who like stream and I think maybe even you too.
It's like you lose.
I don't know.
For me, it's like there's games that will come out,
and I'm like, oh, I'd like to play that or whatever.
But I don't really fall in love with games that I'm not streaming
because I can't.
Because if I do, then I'll invest way too much time into it,
and my stream will suffer because of it.
Yep, 100%.
So for me, I don't want to say streaming is a job,
because really it's the best job in the world, in my opinion a job it's still a job when you turn a hobby into your
job yeah anybody who's had a passion for work or uh anything will eventually be like this is no
that like that love for that thing it changes it really does yeah it's the same thing with gaming
like honestly i don't do it for't know unless you and now I look at
Unless you've lived it I could be taking the wrong
Now there's a line in the
Man he was to wear sure this is fuck
Weird I call that the line
I don't like kids
Fine
I don't like kids
I'm okay with that
That's a good compromise
I don't like kids
But like unless you've lived it
unless you've been through it's hard for people to you know even if you've played games for
thousands of hours but you've never worked like in the gaming industry it's hard to understand
where we come from absolutely i try to explain all the time it's it is a very different feeling
to have to play a game yeah i would put it like this imagine you have
your job and you show up every day and you do the exact like uh fucking cutting wood you're like
that's what you think and then all of a sudden your boss is like hey you have to now hang drywall
you're getting paid one half of what you're making you're like fucking why am i hanging drywall this sucks
dick it's the same job why am i getting paid less that's what streaming is or even the opposite you
start hanging drywall and then they're like we're gonna pay you so much more and you're like i hate
but we're gonna hang this motherfucker this pays way better exactly so and and that's what it is you know so i i love playing video games i love
what i do but there is a hundred percent more times than not where i'm like fuck man dude i
i'm getting into it again you know yeah we talked about it earlier at dinner i was like
because i i am thankful i don't i just don't give a fuck about streaming i'm like i'm gonna play
we're gonna play this bro we're just doing just chatting i want a fuck about streaming. I'm like, I'm going to play this. We're going to play this.
We're just doing just chat.
I want to play Armacore.
I'm going to do two hours of that and then switch to whatever the fuck I want at this point.
You're a hobby streamer.
That's okay, though.
That's good.
You know that.
And on top of that, streaming ruins playing video games.
For fun.
For fun.
Even whenever I try and play video games for fun, I'll be playing and I'll do something good.
And I'm like, fuck, I should be playing.
Dude!
The amount of times I've played only a handful of raids
of Tarkov offline ever,
in the amount of times I've gotten out of the raid
like successful, I'm like, fuck yeah!
Every time when you're not streaming.
I hit play on my music and I look to my chat and I go,
oh God!
I'm not live.
I am sick, I am ill.
Yeah.
It's so built into you to to be like you need that like
that's the next step yeah and people always ask me like how do you play tarkov solo all the time
i don't i have thousands of people watching me and i'm playing with them we should play some
time together offline i'm like i don't i don't yeah no and it's not that i hate tarkov and i
hate streaming or i hate video games i'm streaming just because it makes me money it's just it's it's not that I hate Tarkov and I hate streaming or I hate video games. I'm streaming just because it makes me money.
It's just, it's so hard to explain to people where it's like, I love what I do, but it's
what I do.
And there's nothing wrong with that.
I don't do fucking, when I actually play Warzone now, like we're diamond ranked in the, whatever
the, and we're climbing, we're going to get masters if we play. Whenever we play.
That's the hardest part.
It's like, ah, do I want to play?
I text the group chat.
I'm like, eh, they haven't texted back.
Okay, we're playing.
Whatever.
I don't give a fuck.
And now, bro, I will let you guys know.
I hate that I did not play Red Dead Redemption 2 until two days ago.
You're such a fucking idiot.
It's such a good game.
Bro, you don't know.
I told you this.
I know.
I know. I know.
Fucking idiot.
But holy shit,
is it on that next level?
It's unbelievable.
Oh.
Yeah.
Oh.
And then chat,
it's so weird.
I'm like,
hey, we're playing it
and it's nice.
I love chat playing with me
because they're like,
oh, look at this.
But it's very weird
watching these guys
that have invested
many hours into it
and then I do something
like, what the fuck? Where are you? I've never seen this place before it's one of those you know that's why we
talked about starfield earlier yeah and and how it's just so different like even even though
they're different gaming companies in like oblivion or sky it's just so different because
there's so much less of that yeah but yeah so it's really really hard it's really really hard
to to play video games and and to enjoy them without hitting the live button because it's like i'm not you know i i'd say and i know again you can
relate i enjoy video games but i enjoy my chat so much more than i enjoy what i'm playing i enjoy
the guys who are sharing with me guys and girls who are sharing these moments with me wait taking
out a five man i think less about i just took them out and more about what
is everyone else thinking that about i just took them out yeah everyone's fucking losing their
shit all right no hold on so we're around two hours we're gonna call it here i have one last
question that's very important what is the best streamer item in tarkov batty spirit thank you
