So thank you for having me. I'm a functioning alcoholic.
Starting point is 00:01:09 You get so motivated too after these episodes. I get texts from you like, I'm going to start YouTubing. Yeah. Everything's ready to go. We just have to film. I got a crazy march ahead of me, but we're going to make it happen. I'm so proud of you. Because you guys always give me shit every time I see you.

I read the comments. You messaged me like two months later. You're like, have you read the comments on our podcast? Yeah. Jack, they want you to do your stuff.
Starting point is 00:01:31 Eli got me to read the comments. I was like, whoa, these are really positive. This is not the kind of YouTube I'm used to. Jack usually loads a gun when he reads the comments. He's like, all right, I don't know about you, but I'm feeling 22. Where's Brandon Herrera at to make a joke about veterans? Just cut that segment and give it to him, and we'll put it against Brandon. We could just AI him into this thing and get him saying all sorts of effed up stuff.
Starting point is 00:02:00 Tony's paying us. I'm sorry, y'all. We're doing money, man. We're in Tony's pockets. Sorry, Brandon. Jack, how you been, buddy? We haven't had you in a couple episodes. Yeah, it's been a couple months.
Starting point is 00:02:15 I feel like I get invited on a lot. I feel very honored about that. Yeah, you fucking moved the needle. I haven't been gone since you two homies are back in the saddle again. Yeah, really? No. The last one I did was it was just like you
Starting point is 00:02:30 and Brandon. Who's with Nick? You've never been with Nick? Oh, I have before, but not since he's been officially a host. Oh, okay. I was like so confused. The timeline's all over the place. We're in infinity war right now. Civil war's done. We're in infinity war right now.
Starting point is 00:02:46 Civil war's done. We're in the conclusion. Part one. Jack had the best idea for the live shows that we're doing in March. Oh. Yeah. We set up a bar. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:03:01 And I'm just side stage dressed in a tuxedo as a bartender. I don't say a word the entire show, but I'm just, and you guys can say whatever you want to me. I'll just pretend you're not even there. I'm just doing my job. I'm a good, happy, tuxedo-wearing bartender. And we just berate him. Yeah. And you make his drinks, though?
Starting point is 00:03:14 Yeah, I'll make you guys drinks. Yeah, like, I'm your bartender. Bro, I'm loving this idea way more and more. So I'll have my comb-over. I'll have a tuxedo. I'll have my comb-over. And then we'll get you the big Venmo icon, and we'll put it on the front of the bar with a sign that says, the more you tip me, the stiffer their drinks are.
Starting point is 00:03:33 You'll see how much money you can raise. I love that. You just see me putting some blue flirt in with some dick. Jack and William. He just brings out a bottle of Jack for each of us. This is just Bruce Jack. Tip the man. Tip the fucking man.
Starting point is 00:03:49 Jack, are you putting roofies in our drink? Don't worry about it. It's acid. Our meet and greet were just like unconscious. Yeah. Holy shit.

We got you a gift for coming on on short notice, though. We got you something. I live in the neighborhood now. Hold on. Did you hear it? We got you a gift. We got you a gift for coming on on short notice so consistently.
Starting point is 00:04:09 This is a lot of thought process went into this. Yeah. Nick told me that you love Jim Bowie, so I got you this. What? Let me guess. A sponsor gave it to you, and you have a bunch to offer. No. We went and bought this at the store.
Starting point is 00:04:21 What? Jack is coming soon. What the shit? Guys, are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Why? Oh my God. That's a nice one too.
Starting point is 00:04:34 Yeah, that is a nice note. Oh my God, I can play it wrong with it? Oh my God. We know you're a huge Jim Bowie fan. I'm going to stir the drinks with this if we end up doing that thing for the show. This will be my drink stirrer. Oh, my God. Thank you, guys.

I'm just spending more money on myself these days you know uh not that i had anybody to spend money on before oh you like it i love it thank you so much this is so awesome this is so awesome we're gonna get you a shirt that also says, I'm not an ex-Marine. I'm a real Marine.
Starting point is 00:05:47 Oh, yeah. So you could have had your bow in that shirt. And an Iraqi freedom hat with all the ribbons. See what I say. The hat. Oh, yeah. Literally, I was like, if you want to piss Jack off, you get these three things. The hat you just described is exactly what i said
Starting point is 00:06:05 piss me off now jim bowie does piss me off i think his legacy is overrated but the knife is amazing the his the namesake for the knife is a whole different thing and i i accept this humbly and gratefully and thankfully thank it's from all of us at unsub and also all the amazing community that makes that possible to get our friends dope gifts. Yeah. Oh my God. Thank you. Yeah. Give them more money. You might be able to show more. I want a waterbed next time.
Starting point is 00:06:33 We went by Bass Pro before we came up here and Nick was like, Jack loves Jim Bowie. Get him a knife. Have you been to the Alamo with all the times you've come down to San Antonio? All the times you've come down to San Antonio? All the times you've come to San Antonio, you haven't gone to the Mecca of Texas. I'm very busy drinking.
Starting point is 00:06:51 Okay. You can drink in downtown San Antonio, you know. I believe you. There's the Manger Hotel, which is the oldest hotel west of the Mississippi. That's the one you took me to, right? Yeah. When I first moved here. You told me the history about it. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:07:02 The Teddy Roosevelt recruited the Rough Riders out of that fucking bar there, dude. Isn't there a bullet hole or something? From Teddy Roosevelt. You should probably go at this point. You want to take me? Yeah, I'd love to. I don't have anything to do. I'm not doing anything. I'm not doing anything tomorrow. I'm pretty much packed after that. I'll be on a plane tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:07:19 Next time you come down, we got to do it. You're not on a Max 9, are you? Do you remember the video idea? We've been talking about it for like two years. Jack puts on like an orange vest, and he has a sign that says, please be quiet or something. And he walks us around the Riverwalk, and we're all just kind of hammered. And it takes us on a tour of the Riverwalk.
Starting point is 00:07:40 I mean, I could give you guys the tour from Mission Espada to the Pearl and everything in between. I could give you the full tour. History, fun facts, nature, bums, everything. Dude, this is a series, though, for Unsub. It's like Jack and Nick do history, and we just do quick history segments like that for answers. There's so much good shit in South Texas alone. Yeah. I love this idea way more. Yeah, we have a cameraman with us.
Starting point is 00:08:09 While we're going through the river walk, we just keep bringing people on. We're like, hey, this tour guide's awesome. Come hang out with us. It's $50. We'll see how many people pay you. I need a new knife. I broke my last one. On what? My waterbed. pay you yeah i broke my last one on what my water bed
Starting point is 00:08:37 it's that wakanda water bro but we could sell out an entire venue of people that just want to hang out with jack because my latest vlog they saw him doing karaoke and like you're in my vlogs a lot whenever jt's yeah yeah i mean i'm like uh yeah i'm in like split second shots like he's like why does he have a shirt off yeah but the comments are like i would pay to hang out with jack just to hang out with jack venue jack mandyville oh i'm so underwhelming that's why we did that comedy show the other night and as soon as it was done everyone's like doing shots and I'm like all I can see outside the venue is the halal card. Am I going to hit that
Starting point is 00:09:10 up on the way to the hotel? Yeah. How'd your live show? You guys are doing live shows now. We'll get to that actually afterwards. Yeah. I'm excited for y'alls. Dude.

Starting point is 00:09:25 That's right. The live audience. We're going to get an actual bar set up on the stage. And Jack's just. Yeah. Just, yeah. And I don't want to divert from the show. So, like, you guys just tell me when you want to drink and I got you. But we need you drunk, but you have to stay quiet.
Starting point is 00:09:41 I can do that. And then you have to deliver. We gave you a very unbalanced tray. You have to service our dreams. On a tray. We put everything against you. Leading into this. So you're stumbling. You're shit wrecked.
Starting point is 00:09:55 You're not allowed to talk. It's the most abusive thing I've ever heard you guys say. I need you drunk but quiet. It wasn't just fucking. I cannot. That's a shirt right there. I cannot tell you how many ex-girlfriends have said that exact sentence to me before. That's a lady out of breath. Wild.

Starting point is 00:11:36 On this last minute thing, I had to think about on the 15 car. I do want to talk about something. I was telling Cody about it out there, and I don't know if you heard, but when I was a little boy, when I was 10 years old, there was this trunk in my parents' little basement closet, and I opened it up, and it was just a treasure trove of my great-great-grandfather's life. He was at the age of 15.
Starting point is 00:12:02 He joined the Army of the Potomac at the outbreak of the civil war and was in every major battle of the army of the Potomac from the age of 15 to 19 years old. And I had every single one of his journals from F from every single day from the time he went to his bait. I don't know what they call it. Training to the, to the end of the war till a couple of years after the war,
Starting point is 00:12:23 I let thousands of letters, photographs, muster rolls, all sorts of cool shit that I consumed as a child. It really shaped me. And I was going through this thing recently. I was reflecting on all that because when I, when I was a kid in the summers, I would like transcribe them onto the computer. So we have them all digitized because I had no friends when I was 12.
Starting point is 00:12:42 So I just fucking spent my summer just transcribing everything. I did have friends, but they didn't invite me to talk about it. Anyways, so we... Holy shit, this is amazing. So I went up there and did that show in Austin the other night, and I was thinking to myself, dude what are you gonna leave like who's gonna look at your words and your thoughts and expressions from your life and gain inspiration from it like you haven't journaled at all you haven't documented anything then i realized i've
Starting point is 00:13:16 been on twitter for 14 fucking years i've absolutely been journaling so i did a whole thing where i compared his journal entries from the Civil War as a, you know, 16, 17, and 15 years old then were different. I don't want to sound like a creep or anything, but they were very mature for their age. Yeah, it's like time to have kids. Yeah. Yeah, they were getting shot at and dying by the age of 25.
Starting point is 00:13:38 So this is, can I read a few of them out to you? 25. Okay. Was he south or north? He was in the 5th Vermont. He was in the Vermont Brigade. He was in the North. I was going to say that changes the verbiage that is used in some letters. He was a 19-year-old Captain Robert Pratt.
Starting point is 00:13:57 And the cool thing is he also became a two-time mayor of Minneapolis. If any of you watched the fun old george floyd riots and you saw city hall there he was the first mayor of minneapolis to occupy that building okay now hold up let me find it here i love jack's like he's like fun okay back to this also side note isn't it crazy you're you will be a great great great grandpa that people look back on it's like my great great great grandpa jack Jack, he would show his stomach. Yeah. He'd sing karaoke.
Starting point is 00:14:28 Yeah. I can't read a lot of this stuff right now. Yeah. He's got his own language over there. All right, so his name is Captain Robert Pratt. This was April 9th, the day, 1865. What was April 9th, 1865? I'm drunk.
Starting point is 00:14:44 That was the day that 1865. What was April 9th, 1865? I'm drunk. That was the day that Lee surrendered to General Grant. So he's standing, he's doing post on a road. He's got his company there on the road. And he says, we have to start and look at the missus sitting in the window of the seminary. There are so many of them, and they have the name of being so much secesh. And we are so timid. We do nothing but gaze. If I were not afraid of a flogging,
Starting point is 00:15:07 I would go down there and tell them Lee had surrendered. And this was me, four days ago, on Twitter. X. I'm so fucking invested in this Chili's car winning Daytona. April 3rd, 1865. The day after the breakthrough at Petersburg, which pretty much was the beginning of the end of the war. We were completely tired out of the day of battle.
Starting point is 00:15:32 News reached of Ed Brownlee's death on the parapet. Oh, Ed, how wicked you were lost in our final engagement. I went to bed crying at the thought of him. February 11th, 2024. There's probably people fucking to ICP right now. Okay. Okay. Last one.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Last one. This is kind of a longer one. April 10th, 1865. The day after the war. Again, he's 19 years old. He's been at war for four years. Jesus. With smoothbore fucking rifles.
Starting point is 00:15:59 And no anesthetics or first aid of any kind. We know now that the war has ended and how it thrills me and joy to know that we have accomplished what we have after four years. I can hardly get through my head that we can go on picket and not keep a vigilant lookout for rebels. All I want now is an education, and I am bound to have one. January 17th, 2024.
Starting point is 00:16:24 Me also, you know, a war veteran. It's not illegal to scream Allahu Akbar in the middle of a flight and then just continue reading your People magazine. So I'm journaling. It's the same thing, right? Yeah. Same, same, but different. Yeah. They're going to look back and be like, my great, great Uncle Jack.
Starting point is 00:16:43 Yeah. Used to drink with president herrera yeah that's true yeah and i like how you said uncle because you know like this guy ain't having kids women men women might want to fuck him they don't they don't want to get impregnated by him i'm not saying that i'm just saying i've never met a man with more crazy uncle energy than you you're what i strive to be bro when i actually do go to my sister's house i got three nephews two of them are twins they're maniacs six years old like i like pass out i all i do is sleep at her house i sleep through it's the best sleep i get is when i finally go back up

And they want to know what sources I use to write their papers. So yeah, they do all the time. That's a lot of initiative for like,

That's a lot of initiative for a teenager to take. That's awesome. That's actually doing good in the world. Crazy concept. That is awesome. Also, Jack, that's like the, how old was your great, great, great, great grandpa

They're like, something's wrong with that boy, don't shoot him. Let him line up the cannons though. They're perfectly lined up and they're fucking accurate. He's the one who
Starting point is 00:19:37 charges for him and she's like, you are not in a perfect line. Yeah. He'd be the drill sergeant. He's the general on the horse. And they're like, General, what do we do? Don't talk to me. Stop talking. The horse is too big.

Starting point is 00:23:25 they actually offered him an appointment to west point since he was so young and he's like fuck no i'm not doing war no more his brother who actually was wounded at the battle of the wilderness right next to him had uh uh what was that uh the breathing problem they all had back then uh black lung uh tuberculosis tuberculosis yeah tv So they heard that in Minnesota It's just better air out there And so he went in 1866 A year after the war, went west to Minnesota Started his own business
Starting point is 00:23:53 Minneapolis now has schools named after him He was the two-time mayor of Minneapolis Kind of at really He really helped build the city To what it is today And then his son was the first soldier from the state of Minnesota that died in the Spanish-American War while he was in office. So they have schools named after him and everything like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:13 Robert Pratt. Yeah. You got a fucking history there, man. Yeah. My family was like, at one point, they were like the Kennedys of Minnesota. And then the Depression happened. So, like, none of it matters anymore. They got depressed.
Starting point is 00:24:23 Yeah, they got depressed. Yeah. The Depression. Yeah Yeah. They got depressed. Yeah. The depression. Yeah. Everyone just got depressed. It wasn't about money. It was sad all of a sudden. Fucking wild.
Starting point is 00:24:33 Yeah. That's fucking crazy. It's more crazy. You know, your family lineage. Cause I know like my grandpa's and then past that, I couldn't tell you anything. My family. It was a freak thing. Right.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Cause he had like seven kids. So we were the ones that freakishly were the ones that somehow ended up with this because he probably at that point had hundreds of descendants right um it was just a freak thing that we were the ones that ended up with that and it just it was a big part of my childhood reading and going through all that that's what started my love and interest in reading and history and uh and then uh yeah some years back though we donated it to the hennepin county historical society so it's all it's in museum that's fucking dope cody do you like where's your i'm guessing grandpa great grandpa and then nothing after that i know
Starting point is 00:25:16 fuck i know grandpa yeah grandpa was a police officer during the civil rights movement so we don't talk about that um that's where Cody got his superpower. No, no. Is he really good with German shepherds and fire hoses? He has genetic superpower. Oh, my God. You should see some of his old police reports. I'm not even going to repeat them.
Starting point is 00:25:37 Can you read them? And he's going to court with those things, right? No, it was bad. You're like America. So not the full n word but the one would grow at the end that's that's not police reports would be like the color black in spanish but that was the word back then yeah yeah that would i don't think that's that's not nearly as offensive as yeah that. We still refer to old baseball leagues as the Negro leagues. That's what it was.
Starting point is 00:26:08 Yeah. Okay. So I can say the word now. Context. Historical context. Yes. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:14 But no, his police reports, like I read, like my brother-in-law found some of his police reports. Cause my brother-in-law and my sister work at the same police department that he worked in, in the sixties and seventies. Oh wow.
Starting point is 00:26:24 And so the reports would say like, would list the the names of the suspects but then in the uh in the when when they're talking about like what happened they would be like negro one came out of here with it with whatever like negro two ran i chased negro two like yeah that was the time it's crazy when you read that. Dude, a lot of the stuff we've done in America, like the Japanese camps during World War II. That was one of the worst things. Bro, this is literal.
Starting point is 00:26:56 A lot of them are still alive. One of my females, Kathy, shout out to you. Her mom was part of that entire thing so she has all the history she just turned 75 and she would tell me about these stories when i was training her she did personal training she's like oh yeah my family they took everything never got anything moved them into a camp and we're just everything's just gone imagine it just coming in chucking oh and most of those people they weren't folks that had just gotten to the United States yet. They were generationally American. They'd been there for three or four generations.
Starting point is 00:27:28 They were as American as you can be. Yeah. Yeah. And people don't know, too, that they did, and not as commonly with Japanese Americans, but they did, in turn, a lot of German Americans as well. Oh, I see. Because there was a lot of German Americans that were, like, openly kind of clinging on to Hitler's rhetoric. They kind of identified them like, you're going to stay in.
Starting point is 00:27:47 They put them down here in Texas, actually. No shit. I mean, it makes sense. We have a huge German population. Did you ever watch? Barney, fucking New Braunfels. Everything around here. Fredericksburg.
Starting point is 00:28:00 Yeah. Did you ever watch? Sorry, go ahead. Oh, no, I was going to say, we were talking yesterday about the Argentina Nazis. Yeah. Did you have a watch? Sorry. Go ahead. Oh, no. I was going to say, we were talking yesterday about the Argentina Nazis. Yeah. How do you feel about the Argentina Nazi situation? Do you think it really happened? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:16 No, yeah. Yeah, a bunch of high brass, like SS people fled to South America. Yeah. We found the one. Who was the big name we found? Oh, that dude that had his own island for doing nuclear research? God, no. I didn't even
Starting point is 00:28:32 know that one. I know we found big name SS commanders in Argentina and South America. That's like historically. They were actually fighting war criminals up. I mean, they still... The last one wasn't long ago. There's a whole team actually who was the Israel
Starting point is 00:28:47 the Israelis that would go and fucking hunt Nazis. They've been hunting since. Have you heard of that Cody? No. Dude this is like Israelis, Jewish people. Is this a Tim Kennedy thing? No this is not. Because he did hunting Nazis. They were probably in Iran.
Starting point is 00:29:03 They have like I don't know if it's military or law enforcement or paramilitary, but they have their own borderline special forces unit that hunts down Nazi war criminals. And they kidnap and bring them back. Yeah. Oh, yeah, they don't fuck around. No, I didn't know about that.
Starting point is 00:29:19 But I've talked to so many dudes who do joint force type stuff down in Argentina. And they're just these villages. Of all Germans. Of big white people with blue eyes and blonde hair. In the middle of Indian territory. Yeah, to speak the weirdest dialect. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:39 Yeah. Well, South America has always been multi-ethnic. They have huge italian populations in argentina brazil is very diverse but uh and there had been germans in uh in south america for quite a while but yeah 1945 there was a new flood of them that showed up yes that's great i told you about weird did i oh i haven't told you this story when I was at the five 11 event in Las Vegas for a shot show. The one with Cody was.
Starting point is 00:30:08 Yeah. So we were all there and we were all there. And I went inside and there was just, you know, a bunch of people there or whatever. And I went in and there was this dude, like he had two backpacks in his hand. He was like looking,
Starting point is 00:30:16 trying to pick between the two. But in one of them that he had was the backpack that I've had forever that I fucking loved. And I was like, that one's the best. Like I've, I've owned both. That one's way love. And I was like, that one's the best. Like, I've owned both. That one's way better.
Starting point is 00:30:27 And he's like, yeah, I was leaning towards that one anyways because I'm from Honduras, and I can't have, like, very military-looking backpacks because they'll just assume I'm with the cartel, and they'll arrest me. And he's like, so this one looks, like, not military. I go, yeah, that's why I like it too. And he's like, yeah.
Starting point is 00:30:43 And I was like, cool. And he's like, yeah, I own a security company down there. I'm like, oh, that's cool. And he goes, yeah, I'm half, half German, half Honduran. And I go, oh, and he go, how'd that happen? He goes, well, my grandpa came over from Germany in the 1940s. And I went, he goes, yeah, my grandpa was a Nazi straight up. And he's like, it's he, he like, he's kind of like,
Starting point is 00:31:10 we had a conversation for like 20 minutes and he's like, my grandma's got dementia and she thinks it's 1943. It's super not cool. She's the only lady in that video. I brought that up. And he's like, I brought that up. I brought that up.
Starting point is 00:31:23 And he is, he's straight up. He's like, dude, it's exactly like that. He's like, I brought that up. I brought that up and he is, he's straight up. He's like, dude, it's exactly like that. He's like, it's bad. So video we're talking about. No, no. Oh, there's a, there's, there's a video with an old lady and she goes, I don't even, I don't know.
Starting point is 00:31:37 It's a birthday. Something's happening. And they're like, she's having a drink. Yeah. And she's like, hell yeah. And I'm like, grandma! It's a celebration. She's having a drink. Yeah, and she's like, hell yeah. And they're like, Grandma, no! Grandma, no. She goes to raise her arm
Starting point is 00:31:47 and her son pays her a count. Oh my God. Think about it in Germany right now. That's probably happening to a lot of families when you think about it. Oh, the old,
Starting point is 00:31:57 yeah, I didn't even think about that. Oh my God. Yeah, we're losing a lot of World War II vets recently. I know, that's why we're trying to get them.
Starting point is 00:32:02 I'm interviewing three this month. Are they coming here? No, no, I'm going to them of World War II vets recently. I know. That's why we're trying to get them. I'm interviewing three this month. Are they coming here? No, no. I'm going to them. And it's basically like it was a rush to book those tickets because last year I interviewed three, and two of them died within a month after the interview. Like, you've got to get on it fast.
Starting point is 00:32:20 I know. I remember when I was personal training, this is 2011, reading the news that the last World War I soldier had just passed. Frank Buckles, yeah. Yeah, I was like, holy shit. Oh, my God, yeah, the entire generation is now gone. Now we're the World War II one. We're at that cycle. It's like, hey, we're going to start losing a lot of these dudes.
Starting point is 00:32:40 What was the? Sorry, I was going to say, what was the stat? This was like five or ten years ago probably that i read the stat but i think the united states government was still paying pensions for civil for like three civil war veterans because it was like yeah they're they're like widows or something like something crazy the last civil war it was it was a child of a civil war veteran i think is how it worked but it was like a 15 year old kid that died in combat, but had a kid.
Starting point is 00:33:09 And then this person was like 105 now, like it was something crazy, but they were still paying out pensions for civil war veterans. Yeah. The last civil war veteran died in 1956 or something like that. Which is also fucking wild. That is crazy. What was the, sorry, back to world war two. 56 or something like that. Which is also fucking wild. That is crazy.
Starting point is 00:33:28 What was the, sorry, back to World War II, what was the black dude with the Tommy gun on his porch? Oh, he just passed, right? I can't remember his name. Yeah, yeah, he passed. He got pneumonia and he finally passed. Really cool. He was like 99 or something. Yeah, he was almost.
Starting point is 00:33:40 He was a soldier? Yeah, he was a World War II soldier. Was he a pilot or something? Robert Overstreet, he was the guy that lived up in Austin, right? He was a soldier? Yeah, he was a World War II soldier. Was he a pilot or something? Oh, Robert Overstream. He was the guy that lived up in Austin, right? He was blind? Yeah, I think so. Yeah, Robert Overstream or something like that.
Starting point is 00:33:54 They would interview him. He was the oldest World War II soldier. Yeah, he was like, I contribute my longevity to whiskey and cigars. God damn, they don't build them like that anymore, dude. I think he was up there in Austin, if I'm not mistaken, yeah. What do you have on your family lineage? Or are you the first one where you're like, I'm going to start deep diving?
Starting point is 00:34:16 I know grandpa. I don't know super far back. I know my family came over from Ireland. Are you not one of them Czech Iowans? No. my family came over from Ireland in early 1900s and they went straight to California for the gold rush. And then my family owned one of the biggest ranches in California for a long time. And that was actually my dad's, my dad's grandpa. So my great grandpa, I never got to meet him. He passed away before I was born, but they owned one of the biggest ranches in california and then lost it in a divorce but my dad has all these stories because i guess there was a native american um burial site on this
Starting point is 00:34:54 ranch so my great grandpa had this like museum on his property of just all this stuff that had been like he wasn't even excavating but it was like it was ranch so like he was farming and stuff and like the stuff just got unearthed and he was like preserving it so he had do you have any of it no we don't they like lost all of it oh my gosh so like i never got to see what part of california uh northern california so like orland orville area chico i was born in chico oh up north there okay dude oh oh in the comments in the comments below let us know what your family is like if you have any crazy stories like that yeah that's actually a really did you ever see that key and peel sketch where they're doing an ancestry i know exactly what
Starting point is 00:35:36 it's so good i don't know this it's so good it's so good dude and if you know american history like it's it's awesome but it's like it's an ancestry.com commercial it's like this white guy's like i didn't know that i was a direct descendant of robert the bruce of scotland and then it goes to another person it's a black lady's like i'm a direct descendant of thomas jefferson and then it goes to a white guy's like i'm a direct descendant of uh um john adams and then it goes to another black guy, Thomas Jefferson. And every time it would come to a black person, they'd be like, Thomas Jefferson.
Starting point is 00:36:12 Dude, Kingfield is so funny. Jesus. That was the best sketch comedy you will ever see, still Kingfield. Do you remember the family guy skit when they find the pictures from Lois' dad? Peter. Yeah, and then Peter. And then they're like, oh, it looked like your great-great-grandpa had the jungle fever. And he's dad yeah and then peter and then they're like they're like oh look like your great great grandpa had the jungle fever jesus christ dude yeah and then peter
Starting point is 00:36:32 family guys now you're like wow this was on this network television at 6 p.m dude that girl used to go hard very hard it debuted after the super bowl did it yeah the first i think i'm pretty sure the first episode was after the Super Bowl. I love Family Guy's story because they dropped it for two years. There was two years or a year where they were like, no. And then everyone was like, where the fuck Family Guy go? And then they were like, oh. Fox had a bad history of canceling good shows.
Starting point is 00:37:02 Rustic Development is the big one I can think of. I don't know if you guys have ever seen that's my favorite comedy sitcom comedy show of all time but they just it was always on the chopping block but they had a hardcore fan base i forget yeah was it only fox there's a couple networks that would do that they would have uh firefly is a really good example of everyone but but but firefly that's the one where they mixed up the episodes right and they played them out of order so originally yes because the executives didn't like the order so like no we'll start here and confuse the audience that's the most hollywood thing i've ever heard in my life telling the people that made the made the show what order the episodes need to be in
Starting point is 00:37:42 chronologically we and thankfully we have this big wave of well thankfully there was a huge wave of that happening and now every and then all the studios lost a metric shit ton of money for the last couple of years thanks disney disney marvel they just started printing shows and then you had this fuck up and then it was like uh we need to actually pull back that's why disney marvel right now there's only slated for deadpool is the only have you seen the deadpool trailer not no nothing deadpool and wolverine is that the one that has juggernaut in it no this is no no this is a new one new one coming out yeah but but in the trailer deadpool says i'm marvel's jesus yeah he's like you can call me Marvel's Jesus
Starting point is 00:38:25 or Messiah like he says Jesus or something like that yeah it's like because he they know that he's gonna bring it like Deadpool's gonna bring it back gonna bring Marvel back oh my god he like stabs somebody or shoot somebody on the deck he's like oh you won't see that normally on Disney it goes right into the series but they're breaking
Starting point is 00:38:42 the fourth wall entirely and he's like yeah I'm Marvel's Messiah. It was a huge like Ryan Reynolds, they were not trying to have it happen until last year's all the failures from last year and the year before. This year they were like, fucking
Starting point is 00:38:58 okay, like he gets whatever he wants. Let's actually have him do this. They pulled back on everything other than Adam Webb came out, bombed, and now Deadpool. Those are only two big slated ones this year. Compared to two years ago,
Starting point is 00:39:14 which they had, I think it was like eight series and then six movies come out and they fucking tanked. A majority of them tanked. So they're like, the Disney CEO, he was like, or Marvel CEO, one of them tanked so like the disney ceo he was like or marvel ceo one of them he was like yeah we we i won't say any much more other than uh we made mistakes and we're trying to rectify them uh quality quality over quantity from now on i hate it i would love to imagine
Starting point is 00:39:39 ryan reynolds and hugh jackman walking into the office of the ceo and being like we don't need you you need us and we're gonna do whatever we want in this movie yeah you know i hope they both Reynolds and Hugh Jackman walking into the office of the CEO and being like we don't need you you need us and we're gonna do whatever we want in this movie yeah you know I hope they both make a billion dollars oh yeah it's it's like you know people forget show business show business uh not fun show business it's the the studio systems it's as bureaucratic as any other mundane corporation out there and you have endless amounts of people in pointless jobs that are trying to justify their jobs so they're inserting themselves into creative decisions constantly they're not letting the artist you know sometimes never experienced this before yeah absolutely not i'm living a creative utopia
Starting point is 00:40:20 it's creative heaven yeah yeah but yeah that's why that's why i love when you guys have me on here i can say whatever i want like yep yeah yeah that's fine g-man do it again make me say something racist i was like no jack is canceled he's like I never said that about Jackie Robinson, man.

Starting point is 00:41:43 I was just thinking about how awesome Jackie Robinson was. Sorry. I love Jackie Robinson. Because you're a fucking huge baseball fan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The reason I love the Jackie Robinson story is he was not the best black baseball player in America at that time. In the Negro Leagues, there were a few players
Starting point is 00:42:02 that were better than Jackie Robinson. The reason why they chose him, though though was he had gone to ucla which back then it was not common to have integrated uh sports teams but he had already played football and baseball with white players in college um and he had he's a world war ii veteran not only that he was an officer so he was good on paper and he was good and he he he he did, you know, rightfully so. It wasn't easy to be a black baseball player traveling in the deep south in the in the 1940s. But he had he had a good history of tact where other ballplayers that were better that they, you know, they fought. Understandably, they'd fight back in situations.
Starting point is 00:42:42 But in order for them to convince white America like that, this black baseball player belongs here. They had to have the guy with the right resume and he had he had the right resume. He was a phenomenal baseball player, too. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It's crazy watching that. Like even the black community, when it was introduced into basketball, baseball, boxing, because it was like, no, what the heck is this dude doing out on the field? Get out of here. Wait, hold on, hold on. When he's stealing home and he's on your team?
Starting point is 00:43:12 Oh, we need him. In black baseball, like basketball, you just get to see that like, wait, let the boy play. Wilt's putting up a, let him cook. Wilt's putting up 100 points? Yeah. Just hold on. In Boston, which by the way when we associate
Starting point is 00:43:28 American racism when we think about racism America we unfairly put it into the south quite often but like the most racist city in America has Boston's got a pretty good freaking history of being shitty Irish white people up there
Starting point is 00:43:43 and the fact that they accepted someone like bill russell you know says a lot about the power of being good at sports how that can change culture yeah i mean you look at um uh robinson oh all i can think about is the bill bird joke which one the one where he's like what's it how come every time you know like a white guy makes a move it's an intelligent how come every time a white guy makes a move, it's an intelligent move, and every time a black guy makes a move on the football field, it's an athletic move? And he kind of explains it.
Starting point is 00:44:11 He's like, well, when Peyton Manning calls an audible, that's an intelligent move. When Michael Jordan jumps over four grown men from the free throw line. Fuck, what did I think of that? probably one of the funniest jokes in stand-up history guys it's okay i have black friends oh fuck sugar ray robinson when he was doing his boxing and this dude was a fucking monster yeah and untouchable at that time frame and then he was in world war ii yeah he joined had to do his service and he would just box he'd like
Starting point is 00:44:49 raise soldiers yeah they weren't gonna get that guy killed in combat no because he was already like the heavyweight champion what main character fucking oh yeah those uh oh the my video no no i'm saying what yeah what what he's talking about he had they're not gonna let him die in combat so he's like he has main character energy he's got main character energy i'm gonna go to the front line sir you're gonna stay in the back line and box motivate the troops who we will send everyone at this table though to the front line have you ever do you know about the fight i'm sorry to interrupt i'm going through a minnesota anxiety uh do you know about the five? I'm sorry to interrupt. No, get it, get it. I'm going through my Minnesota anxiety. Do you know about the five came back story?
Starting point is 00:45:32 About the five directors that, oh, man, I don't know. They were the biggest directors of the day. John Ford was one of them. But, like, all the best directors of that era, they went and shot propaganda stuff for the united states government they like they commissioned in various branches and went overseas and shot actual combat footage they put themselves on the front lines to get this like a propaganda footage for the united states so they were doing like cinematic you know shots in the middle of combat and this is on tracks and shit. So if you guys don't know this, during that time frame,
Starting point is 00:46:06 Akira Kurosawa was the lead of starting the camera movement during shots and building tracks. And then it came, like, in America, World War II, you would have, I'm assuming they probably had, if you're saying cinematic shots, like laid out track. These are monster cameras, as you were just saying. They're walking and going like. That's such a fucking flex.
Starting point is 00:46:29 While getting shot. While the ground's exploding. Such a fucking flex. Could you imagine being some fucking 18-year-old German kid and just the Americans are, what are they doing? They're setting up their cameras. The battle starts in 45 minutes. It's content, man.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Content. Bro, oh my God. You're looking over and you're like, they're adjusting lights. What the fuck are they doing? Bro, they're worried about lighting. They're making a guy sweat right now just to look good on camera.
Starting point is 00:46:59 And they're pre-dirtying themselves. Did they make the, the push happens at golden hour to look better. Like they're moving salt units for better sunlight. The hardest directors in the world. The fucking Taylor youth is
Starting point is 00:47:14 sitting over there like, this is about to suck, isn't it? We're about to die. You guys don't attack at night because you don't have nods. We don't attack at night because it's bad lighting. We're not the same. We're not the same. We're not the same. Cold turkey might be great on a sandwich,

It's like the Bane of Brothers of the Sky. I'm waiting. It's so good. Wait, is it out? It's like the Bane of Brothers of the Sky. I'm waiting. It's so good. Wait, is it out?
Starting point is 00:48:47 Yeah. It's coming out episode by episode right now. Yeah. I'm waiting until it's all the way out. Can I? Yeah, go ahead. Just one scene that I thought was badass. I know the general plot.
Starting point is 00:48:57 I know how it ends. Yeah. I assume you know it. They get into a bar fight with a bunch of RAF bomber pilots, British pilots, because the British pilots are shitting on them because Americans did day missions and the Brits did night missions. And he said something, maybe more of you guys would have survived if you did night missions. So they end up getting in a bar fight and beating the shit out of each other.
Starting point is 00:49:21 And afterwards, one of the Americans is like, he was right. He's like, then why'd you fight him? I just didn't like his tone yeah i thought it was cool that is i mean doing day missions is not fun you you always ask it's like but why yeah why are we doing a day patrol to show presence it's war you know they don I think they know we're here. Yeah, exactly. You're just going to give up home field advantage for no reason? We could wait eight hours and they literally can't fucking see. No, no, no. Throw young American boys at them.
Starting point is 00:49:59 It's fine. It's fine. We need to establish presence. Go. Jack, you probably... When you're walking and fucking... My least favorite part was when you do a dismounted patrol and you're surrounded by

And he got so many compliments. And, like, all y'all out there, all the comments were like, man, if this dude was my, like, Sunday school teacher, I would have listened. And my favorite comment is, like, one of y'all out there, you weirdos. He's like, I'm a pagan Viking, but holy shit, I would have turned to Christianity for this dude. Like, there you go. I would have dropped that axe and open up an ikea skirt have you watched any of windigoon stuff i have not i'm not as well versed with the internet stuff so uh uh i've learned about him because of the show yeah okay that was a long time for that
Starting point is 00:59:20 explanation i could have just said no my apologies my favorite windigoon video ever is like three years old and it's it's him explaining in detail why christmas in the cranks is communist propaganda it's so fucking funny it's so fucking funny you just said they're like this dude he's right it fucking, he's ruining it.

Starting point is 01:01:15 Francis Bellamy. Oh, no. Show her. We got the clip. She's tiled in. I do not say the Pledge of Allegiance because it's socialist propaganda. It was written by an open and avowed Christian socialist named Francis Bellamy.
Starting point is 01:01:34 And people forget, pre-World War II, socialists were getting elected to high positions in this country. It wasn't like the bad word it is. Socialism was a lot more common especially in the depression era uh but like and uh to piggyback i present pledge of allegiance that happened till 50s or 60s no it was started in the late late 19th century um and that's what i'm saying like the 1960s 1950s no like the 1890s so basically francis bellamy got hired uh to write this thing so they could sell play uh flags for this magazine but he like straight up the whole point was to get it into schools and indoctrinate children to socialist uh ideals and which he did
Starting point is 01:02:20 uh he was successful they even had a thing called the bellamy salute they quit doing it in 1942 and it was like this yeah okay instead of doing the hand on the heart that now the in the ironic thing is he was a he was a minister a christian minister the in god the one nation under god wasn't added in until the 1950s that's what it was and that that part of it wasn't added until like 50 60 60 years later. If you see Star Spangled Banner, love that shit. That's a fucking banger.
Starting point is 01:02:49 Top one on the billboards. Love that song. But when it comes to reciting, that pledge, that pledge creeps me out, man. I might as well be watching freaking a thousand North Korean kids
Starting point is 01:03:00 reciting something right there. It creeps me out that pledge does, man. How does that make you feel, Nick? I don't know. Nick makes us actually say the Pledge of Allegiance before every episode. It'ss me out that pledge does, man. How does that make you feel, Nick? I don't know. Nick makes us actually say the Pledge of Allegiance before every episode. Yeah, you guys miss it.
Starting point is 01:03:10 He's not a Christian, so that's his prayer. Fun fact, they actually have the same exact American flag with the little holder that you can screw into the wall on Amazon. There's one in that corner right there. You just don't see it. It's beautiful. Catch the Pledge of Allegiance on Patreon. We also have that old school clock that hangs right next to it that we all know.
Starting point is 01:03:29 It's amazing. Yeah. Don't worry. When I found out Rudy was kind of bullshit, it ruined the movie for me. So sorry for ruining the movie for you guys. I was like, Rudy. Oh, yeah. That is, if you want to go on that tangent.

Starting point is 01:06:49 service that's a good luck duck right there man my service duck ain't getting to any bar he ended up dying of liver complications and the marine corps i have the newspaper article drinking the marine corps had to release an official statement at the time in like 1949 1950 somewhere right around there when the duck died they had to release this official statement from the marine corps that the liver complications that sergeant siwash had are not related to the excessive amount of drinking with the marine corps and when they had they had him stuffed. And allegedly, he's in the museum in Virginia. In Quantico there. Wow. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:07:30 Oh, if anyone. Oh, can we borrow that for unsub for like a year? So here's the thing. I reached out to that museum and they didn't get back to me. And I'm not saying this happened, but in the back of my head, I'm just like, somebody was like down in the basement wondering why the fuck is there a duck here? Like probably got rid of it or something dumb.
Starting point is 01:07:52 Can we start an unsub series where it's like unsub field trips and we'll go visit. Field trips are so fucking funny. Field trip, field trip. Any field trip. Unsub field trip. Unsub field trip.

Yeah. If you guys, that is actually, if like, there's so many stories. Can you bring up the toilet for me?
Starting point is 01:11:28 The toilet? The toilet. They hid the toilet, Jack. The toilet. It's been a lot around for a long fucking time. What toilet? Huh?
Starting point is 01:11:36 Like a toilet. The world's first flushable toilet was invented by like Queen Elizabeth, the first fucking nephew. And then he wrote a book talking shit about queen elizabeth so she like confiscated the blueprints had it made and put in her quarters and then like buried the technology for like fucking the next 150 years i had no idea they had the only flushable toilet for like two to three hundred years like some outrageous outrageous amount of time wow yeah it's hilarious it's like you're making a car and then you your nephew makes a car and you're like man this is dumb i'm not sharing this with anybody yeah and then your
Starting point is 01:12:13 nephew's a piece of shit so you're like well it's my car now there's one person with a car driving around on the road since the 1500s you just show up to Buckingham. You walk up to the guard there just standing in his pose like, I want to see the fucking toilet, man. There's been so many asses on that toilet, dude. Let me see that shitter, bro. Because, I mean, for a long time, if you don't know this, you would have on castles. It just kicked out the side of the tower.
Starting point is 01:12:43 Literally out the side of the chute and then you'd have a dude that would fucking come clean it. Scrub it down. That's why when people romanticize, even like 70, 60, 70 years ago. 1596. Wow.
Starting point is 01:12:56 Fucking, like they had flushable toilets. I don't know if that would have been Elizabeth, but that, because her reign ended, I think in the mid 16th century, she was the golden age, right? She was, uh,
Starting point is 01:13:10 yeah, she was the last Sir John Harrington designed the first toilet to eliminate the need for tossing waste out manually. And it was the first conceptualized flushable feature. His godmother, Queen Elizabeth, the first had a unique device installed in Richmond palace in 1596. Holy shit.
Starting point is 01:13:27 Damn. And then she was like, fuck you, nephew. Yeah, they romanticized even during the French. What was the really chateau? Yeah. And it was Versailles. Yes. And that smelled like absolute shit.
Starting point is 01:13:40 The world, everybody fucking stunk. Even in the 1950s, people only bathed like twice a week. Like people just stunk back in the day. The streets were smelly. We see all these nice picturesque European streets now. They were, that was, people just throwing shit and piss out into the streets. It was gross back then. The chateau, so that's why perfumes were created to mask the terrible smell.
Starting point is 01:14:04 They would, so in this nice castle, and this castle was like the top tier in France at the time. They would just go and shit and piss in corners of the house. That was it. That was it. No wiping probably. I don't even know. It was just terrible back
Starting point is 01:14:20 then. Then everyone glorified it, as you were saying, Jack, and they were like, no, no, no, no, this is not a beautiful beautiful thing they rarely show that part in movies about like any historical stuff is like what hygiene look like it's really tragic because if i have to hear one more person on the internet be like i was born in the wrong century i want to live when it was cobblestone streets in the 16th we've got them now with modern plumbing. You don't want to live in a time where especially. It's pretty great now. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:14:48 For sure. I would never want to go back in time and be like, this is my time. I wake up. They're like, this Mexican Asian tattoo man is a slave now. My job would be without the internet. I'd have to go to the library. Gross. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:03 And then you're just reciting to the library kids oh geez can you imagine me going to the librarian at mason city iowa yeah i'm looking for uh primary sources to prove that the government has a cheese cave in missouri like hey we got another mcveigh over here uh do you have any sources about why lyndon b johnson's cock blocking me from having a Hilux because Germany didn't eat enough chicken in the 1960s? Is that going to help at all?
Starting point is 01:15:31 Can I tell a fun Richard Nixon story? Of course. This is the history podcast today, guys. As the story goes, he had already announced his resignation as president, but he was still president for a few more days. He was just waiting to get on that helicopter.
Starting point is 01:15:49 And I guess the Reagan assassination attempt was really when the Secret Service we know today really was born. They still didn't have the same protocols. They still had lax protocols back then. Anyways, Nixon wanted to take a little drive early in the morning in D.C. So he got in the presidential limo. He's driving around D.C. just on his own. Well, he's in the back of the limo, and there's a bunch of protesters around the National Mall there,
Starting point is 01:16:16 around the Lincoln Memorial. And the protesters see it's the president of the United States in this limo. And one of them runs up to Lincoln's window and just flicks him the bird. Right. And then Lincoln, not Lincoln, fucking Nixon, Nixon,
Starting point is 01:16:29 Nixon rolls down the window and gives him the bird back, rolls up the window. And he turns to his driver and he says, that son of a bitch is going to go his entire life telling people the president of the United States gave him the middle finger and no one's ever going to believe him. And that reminds me of fucking, um,
Starting point is 01:16:47 who's the actor? Who's the actor? Uh, God dang it. Uh, Bill Murray. See, you already knew Bill Murray.
Starting point is 01:16:55 Have you heard Bill Murray stories? Oh, like where he goes and takes pictures of people that are passed out at the bar and shit.

Like he will show up to parties or he'll do that and be like, no one's going to believe you. It fucking bounces. He will show up just to random parties and do that.

He's a dumb jock. He's probably not a dumb human being, but he's a jock. He's like a jock bro. Who's that?
Starting point is 01:18:43 Her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Oh, yeah. He's like a jock. And we were talking her boyfriend travis he's like a jock and we were talking like why did she choose him and someone brought it up made a really good point like look at her dating history she's only fucked like actors and like nepo babies and musicians and like yeah like all these high society like pussy dudes she's with that guy because he's given her the dick of a lifetime. He's given her fucking athlete dick. The athletic dick. That sounds like something you need to lultram and ultra for.
Starting point is 01:19:14 Like he's not on her intellectual level. She just wants to get fucked hard by this guy. Yeah. Well, I felt bad for him because it's like as me and Cody just did. Who? Everyone responds about as Taylor Swift's boyfriend. Oh, yeah. Travis Scott.
Starting point is 01:19:29 I know. Sorry. I really like not her boyfriend, but the brother and his wife. Jason Kels. Yeah. Jason Kels and his wife are pretty cool. Which one? Huh?
Starting point is 01:19:41 His brother's in the NFL, too. Oh, OK. And he's like he's a little bit like thicker. I think he's a him yet. Huh? His brother's in the NFL, too. Oh, okay. And he's a little bit thicker. I think he's a lineman, not a tight end. Yeah, he's a center. Yeah, he's a Hall of Famer. But his wife, they've been together forever, and his wife is pretty cool. And she's like, nah, I'll fight another woman if she tries to flirt with my husband.
Starting point is 01:19:57 It's just, they have a really cool relationship dynamic. They podcast together. Yeah, they're super cool. I saw the best tweet, too. I'm not going to do it the justice it deserves, but it's like Taylor Swift writing these deep lyrics. And it's just like Travis Kelz lifts his head up from the dog bowl with food in his mouth.
Starting point is 01:20:18 Babe, you are so smart. Taylor Swift is That sounds like a fucking meat canyon skit Right there dude You are so smart Did you see Meat's Video about Taylor Swift Oh yeah
Starting point is 01:20:36 The elk bugling All the girls are going crazy They all whisper You see she's trying to sue a college student All the girls are going crazy. Yeah, just open their mouth. They all whisper and it gets back to Taylor instantly. You see she's trying to sue a college student. Oh, yeah. Yeah. There's a college student because like flights, like public flights leaving and landing is public information.
Starting point is 01:20:58 Yep. You can track flights. Yeah, you can track any flight. So he tracks celebrities flights. That's the one that Elon got because he can. And he posts about it. And Taylor Swift is suing him because she doesn't appreciate that. She's advocating that everybody helps the world be green.
Starting point is 01:21:14 And he's like, I mean, also, you're flying on a private jet every other day, pretty much. And she's now trying to sue this college kid for it. Pretty exciting. 15 minutes i don't think it was hunter but someone made a cartoon recently of her going to the fridge to get a drink and she jumps in her private jet flies to another mansion that's actually pretty hilarious gets out of bed and drives up like in 740s a crew walks into the crashes into another mansion she gets a drink out of the fridge gets back in and it flies back to her place that's so good i can't imagine jack i remember
Starting point is 01:21:55 you telling me a story about one of your deployment you're when you you were during so if most of you don't know this jack Jack, you were during like the surge of everything. Because you were infantry. Yeah, bastard. I was an LAV crewman. It's, yes, technically infantry. So, yeah, LAVs. There's like three battalions in the Marine Corps.
Starting point is 01:22:17 That's it. Now, Jack had a whole bunch of MREs leading into this. And no wipes? Not the, oh, I was there for the invasion of Iraq. And then you had poopies? Oh, yeah. I shit myself twice in one hour. Is that the one we're talking about?
Starting point is 01:22:33 Yeah. Look at the reaction right now. Yeah. I'll never forget. This is during the invasion of Iraq. Yeah. And then everyone's like, I'm listening.
Starting point is 01:22:48 This is one of those just tragically human moments. Yeah. Tragically human. Yeah. It's my new metal band. Oh, that's so good. Yeah. No, we did the invasion of Iraqaq oh i was in first marine division our battalion was
Starting point is 01:23:07 very much at the front of the pack uh for most of it and we're off to armor humvees yeah it was like light armored vehicles yeah uh and they were light armored uh ieds weren't a thing yet yeah they weren't yeah that that. That was like the fun times. We can just shoot guys. We know who the bad guys are. He's got an AK? Yeah. They actually wear uniforms. This was at the tail end of it.
Starting point is 01:23:37 We had just, our battalion took to crit. We had just seized. You got to understand, we've been eating nothing. There were times where I was only getting one mre a day uh but when when the supply train was caught up to us we were getting about two mres a day gas mask no gas did you do mop yeah we we we went into that's a i got a funny story about that too like just for reference everyone mop they cycled out of that but during the invasion and for a year or two you would just have to wear mop gear and that is a non-breathable to keep out bio and gas
Starting point is 01:24:11 you're wearing charcoal impregnated car heart and this is from head to toe in the desert wearing a non-breathable in the fucking desert yeah what's generation kill about that oh yeah generation kill shows the mob so we actually did my unit was like represented in that because we did missions with them during all that uh anyways uh yeah so i've been eating it's pretty so we we get to decry we find this weapons plant that has like 50 000 ak's in it and uh we're supposed to blow it up but like while we're into crit this uh it was like the first fresh food i'd had in at least at least a month um this old iraqi lady gave us like some chicken and i'm like fuck yeah thanks old lady um yeah and uh and uh you don't ever eat jack probably hadn't learned this you do not eat their food oh i learned it the hard way eli uh so oh this is i gotta i gotta
Starting point is 01:25:18 mention this about three or four days prior we it was with the generation kill guys we got in this ambush and a mortar landed right in front of my vehicle and blew we would hang our packs on the outside of the vehicle it blew my pack up so like it just sent shrapnel going through my pack so all my clothes just were like covered in freaking shrapnel and so i only had like two pairs of underwear and i know i only had one pair of i only had what i was wearing and like one pair of camis that were like covered in holes right and i freaking uh anyways mortars uh so explosions grenades mortars it's not the explosion that kills you it's the shrapnel that is sent out
Starting point is 01:25:57 and it just fragments everyone so you have these tiny bullets or pieces of shrapnel metal that just shred everything yeah because in in movies like grenades there's no big fiery blast no it's just a pop and then one of the most depressing things of army basic training is you know oh that was a grenade yeah it's literally five meters to ten meter but you do get to see the dumb kid get body slammed by a very serious 11 bravo that's the funniest shit on the planet doing this bro you're like you you drill it three times they're like you're gonna throw it and get down and then you do it with nothing and then you do it with dummy grenades and then you do it with real grenades and every time some kid and it is they pick the biggest 11 Bravo on the fucking planet. And it's that 11 Bravo goes one Mississippi and fucking suplexes.
Starting point is 01:26:50 This person. I've seen like, there's that one viral video where he like breaks the kid's arm and where he just fucking hip tosses him onto the ground. That, that happens every time. You do not fuck around with grenade. The shrapnel will kill you period yeah so sorry to interrupt no no that's fine uh yeah anyway so this the crit was pretty much the last really hard thing we did so this was like honestly the first this was like the first time in three weeks that i had the opportunity to take a nap people were starting to wash their
Starting point is 01:27:24 clothes i was like oh my god we have time to do stuff now um and i decided to take a nap. People were starting to wash their clothes. I was like, oh my God, we have time to do stuff now. And I decided to take a nap in my vehicle. I was a driver, so I could lay out my seat and I had the most room in the vehicle. And then probably about a half hour into my nap, I woke up and I just didn't feel right. And it was like... This is after the chicken. Yeah, this is after the chicken. And I just looked down.
Starting point is 01:27:44 It was the desert camis at that time. And I was like, oh, fuck, I shit myself. Oh, no. And so I was like, oh, crap. I tried to do it in. Oh, no. I shit myself. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:28:04 I get up. So I'm able to stand, and I can stand up out of my little driver's hole and just go into my pack, right? So I had to grab, I had to take my underwear off. My undies were filled with shit. And I had to grab the pair of camis that had shrapnel all, it was just like a little peppered in shrapnel and I was like alright I got a new pair of pants I baby wiped myself
Starting point is 01:28:28 I didn't think any of my people noticed so I'm like fuck okay I'm still tired I lay my eyes again and sure enough
Starting point is 01:28:38 like 15-20 minutes later the guys laying in the back of the vehicle just heard oh no I shit myself twice in one hour
Starting point is 01:28:51 and at this point now I clean myself up but I'm standing butt naked like out of the vehicle so the driver smashes here so I'm standing so like my dick I'm inside the vehicle here. I'm standing up.
Starting point is 01:29:08 The whole company's watching at this point. I'm basically holding the two shitty pants, the one with the shrapnel in it and the one before, determining which one has the least amount of shit on it because I have to put pants back on. You want shrapnel or shit yeah both their streets this is the best part the call comes in hey first platoon uh you guys got to go uh uh what's it called god i've been out of the military a long time what's the call where you set up uh like you blind the fire you block off you know vod's out you just set up a yeah we set up a perimeter yeah set up a perimeter yeah we set
Starting point is 01:29:51 up a perimeter record on dude they were gonna blow up the all these fucking ak's they just found and so i was like oh fuck i gotta put this whatever i don't remember which pair i chose i put the shitty pair back on and i'm just just, and then it's coming, right? So we're driving out there. We're having to drive through urban areas. Dude, I don't know if I should say this. Like, I'm pretty sure I ran over a d***. Like, all of my brain power.
Starting point is 01:30:22 All of my brain power all of my all of my and I'm Cody I'm sorry my natural line of sight is over here I should be looking at you more often
Starting point is 01:30:36 you're good man you're fucking good all my brain power was going into not shitting myself again because it came on and we're just rushing to this place.
Starting point is 01:30:45 I'm not kidding you. We pull into the place. I fucking, I put that motherfucker in park. My sergeant, the vehicle commander, knows at this point I'm about to shit myself. I get out of the vehicle. Like, the entire fucking company is, like, in a coil. I run out to the center of this field. And in front of the entire company,
Starting point is 01:31:05 I'm just shitting my, like Lloyd from frickin', like Lloyd, not Lloyd, from Dumb and Dumber. I am shitting in the middle of this open field that they're about to detonate. The entire company's laughing at me. And I'm like asking, I'm asking one of my scouts, one of the 0311s, I'm like, I need toilet paper. And they're all laughing.
Starting point is 01:31:28 He throws that at me. It lands fucking 10 feet in front of me. So I'm crawling to this fucking toilet paper, wiping my ass. And no shit, I'm not even kidding you. I fucking run back to the vehicle. And that's like when the thing like pretty much exploded. And like, I'm pretty sure I felt shit hit my back as I was running back. And this is the best part of this,
Starting point is 01:31:47 how fucked up the Marine Corps was during the invasion. They had to give me a Desert Storm era flak jacket that didn't even Velcro. And I only had one plate, so I had to decide if the front of my body or the back of my body was more important. Yeah. Discover the magic of Bet body or the back of my body was more important. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:33:17 Everyone's laughing at me. He goes, you smell like an infant. oh that clip's gonna get a lot of views podcast diarrhea and combat and that's the thing it's like i've you know i've worked with a lot of veterans for years but like i don't i don't i don't talk about and be like somebody asked me, like, you never really told a war story before. And I'm like, yeah, because I hang out like Medal of Honor recipients and Green Berets and Dev Group guys at times. It's like, what am I going to contribute to that war story conversation? You know that that piece of gold right there? We don't have to say the organization, but you had some,
Starting point is 01:34:06 speaking of Brandon Herrera and how much he wants veterans to sewer slide it. You had an organization come over to the house that one time and you made some sewer slide jokes in front of them. I didn't even make them. A certain high esteemed organization came to Jared's place and they had this idea for a movie concept. We told the we told the the concept, which we all thought was hilarious because we live in the world that we do, where it's like there's really nothing that's off limits. And these guys, these guys don't live in that world. And one of the guys was so offended as soon as
Starting point is 01:34:46 and you know jared when he gets when he says something when he's about to say what he thinks is something he gets the biggest smile on his face and he's and jared was just so happy that he was telling the story most of the other guys were laughing but this one guy is just dead staring the whole time and it continued on for like a half hour i i saw it he was just dead staring jared down the rest of the night and as they're leaving he just walks up jared he's like hey man if you make that movie your company's going under it'll ruin you he was like so you don't joke about that brother yeah he did that whole thing and i was just like like all right you fucking boomer yeah he had seen the real shit. He lived on base for a long time.
Starting point is 01:35:25 Yeah. And did nothing from there. No, but that's, yeah. They made a movie about these guys, but like, I'm not, yeah. And like Jack's like, ah. Ah. Okay, what's going on? So Jack, you've been, I love all your stories because you've been shot in basic.
Starting point is 01:35:44 Yeah. You didn't get a purple heart. Wait, you didn been, I love all your stories because you've been shot in basic. Yeah. You didn't get a purple heart. Wait, you didn't know this? I've told this story like three times on this show already. I don't know if it's synopsis for him. I got shot. Yeah. Five, five, six from a saw point blank.
Starting point is 01:35:58 Yeah. Yeah. Right there. Through and through or what? Yeah. Split me open. Pretty good. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:04 How did that happen? Split me open like a split me open pretty good yeah how did that happen it's quick me open like a bbc baby no how did it happen uh so back in the marine day uh they didn't give a shit about when they were rotting off the range yeah this was before like the as the infantry school instructors were like went to school there's like you got three months left go babysit these fucking privates uh yeah but yeah anyways i love the ideology it's like you're about to get out and that is when you do not give a fuck yeah you're like go fuck you babysit what year was that this is 2002 okay yeah i'm old i'm old but yeah i it was we were doing live fires for our first time with a saw 500 privates and we basically they were they
Starting point is 01:36:46 did they did not do their due diligence and while we were cleaning the weapons uh jack's in the front of the barrel cleaning the barrel the guy takes the buttstock off there uh set it down sent it sent the charging handle forward and there was a round lodged up in there and old pfc man and i just stood there and I just, I did. I think the first thing I said, Oh, I did. I did a little. And I remember, I remember they both, both these NCOs show up at the same time. They grabbed my arm.
Starting point is 01:37:17 They're like tugging me back and forth. He's like, what happened? He's like, I don't know, dude. Like they knew they were, they were going to get in trouble for this. Anyways, one of them died later in the Battle of Najaf. And then Jack didn't get out of a test. Yeah, yeah. And that night, I've been in the hospital all night.
Starting point is 01:37:35 They got me sutured up. And I come back, like, at 2 in the morning. It was a Friday. They were supposed to let him go on the weekend. And all the kids were, all theines were sitting there on their lockers like staring at me like i did something wrong like i'm the one that shot myself but they kept him there until i got back and they're reading off the list of everyone that had to come in and make up tests in the morning and he's reading off the list he goes i had a offensive patrolling
Starting point is 01:37:58 and he's like manneville and i you know i'm still bleeding through the bandages like here first sergeant and he's like what you think you're getting out of this fucking test? No first sergeant Yeah But I didn't have to do like, they didn't make me do like PT tests They wanted you to be like They let me pass right through
Starting point is 01:38:17 Let him be fine He's just going to the border anyway Or whatever That's a clip in itself. Hoorah. Hoorah. It's fine. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 01:38:31 It's fine. Cody, what's your next? So we got all y'all's videos. Cody, what is the next piece of content? You just did. We've talked about it a couple times. Squirrel shooting. Now you're going into.
Starting point is 01:38:43 Yours is like day-to-day basis where you're like i'm trying to talk him into new shit no it's like fucking i have to do that emoji right there like grab my nose i'm like god you guys fuck this up my channel went back five years again um have you seen the female police officers mac dumping into the apartment yet? Oh, yeah. Yeah, that's a gnarly one. What happens, Cody? I think it was in Houston. It was in the sheriff's department, right? I think so.
Starting point is 01:39:13 Yeah, a lady came to the door with a gun because, like... She was staying there or lived there? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Her friend lived there, and she came to the door with a gun. She didn't even get to the door or open the door, but the female officer saw her through the window coming to the door with a gun. And, again, I don't know the buildup to this. I haven't looked into it very much.
Starting point is 01:39:35 But these female police officers just start mag dumping. Like one of them reloads, mag dumps, reloads again, shoots more. I pointed out yesterday one is one-handed firing from the angle on the video. I can't decide. I'm going to be honest. I'm going to be honest. I'm less offended about the one-hand firing than I am with the grip that the other one had. Yeah, because, okay, so it's in the same frame.
Starting point is 01:40:00 So the one on the left, yeah, she's mag dumping and then goes one-handed and then the the the female officer we're looking through the the blonde she um she's got her thumbs crossed on a glock and it's just like mag dumping too this this you don't do that this this is a proper g-man if i can show that like that not this because the slide the slide comes back you get slide by not good and this isn't shitting on just like this isn't like girls this is this is like day one shooting this is day one shooting it's also like what you preach which i fucking love it's cody's indescribable when it comes to that shit you're like if you're a bad police officer and you're doing that go fuck yourself yeah absolutely that's one-handed i don't shoot one hand and that was i think that was on her third mag or her second mag too she's just like
Starting point is 01:40:56 and you because this is all you see and if you ever call for more ammo is whipping around just shooting and you're like because in the army marine i guarantee everyone that is served if you have shit bags you you do not oh they'll take away motherfuckers weapons yeah you're gonna go guard the chow hall yeah you are not going near the front line with a pt belt yeah like even when i was a cop we made fun of people so much they would just quit. I noticed that when I did, and I don't want to interrupt
Starting point is 01:41:28 your flow with this story. No, this is perfect. I spent that week out there in West Texas covering the police department out there, and I did, that's one thing I did observe
Starting point is 01:41:37 was that no one's more critical of cops than other cops. I've watched a lot of senior cops. They were quick to point out who they thought were shit bags in the department hey we if i can speak highly of you it is one of the my favorite things for you is you call that shit out and you get for whatever reason it is this idea that you're like you just sighed it's like no cody's you give when they do an amazing job or an officer steps up to the line you you'll fucking you're like hey this dude did the proper thing here's the due diligence here's the background story here's everything but jesus christ if
Starting point is 01:42:16 they're shit bags bro again nut guy female cop shooter shooting the dude you are like go fuck yourself do we we had this one kid one time speaking on um we brought him down to i worked uh third shift in my department so i worked at night so sometimes you're bored you don't have anything to do we brought this one kid who had just joined uh we were we're always trying to training train we're always we're always trained we're trying to get better we brought this one kid down to the basement of the police department just to do some training like basic grappling and jujitsu whatever and um one of my buddies who did jujitsu a lot told this kid he was like all right arrest me he's like what like arrest me like this kid had already been a shit bag had already done some other shit that like was retarded and um my buddy told him arrest
Starting point is 01:43:05 me just go ahead and he wasn't even fighting back hard like my buddy was just like standing there and i couldn't get him into handcuffs whatsoever and he uh he quit the next day because he couldn't get my buddy into handcuffs he was like shit maybe i'm not supposed to be in this line of work maybe i'm not cut out for I guarantee your buddy's just like. He wasn't fighting back. He was just like, put me in handcuffs. It was just standing there. It wasn't a big guy either.
Starting point is 01:43:32 He was just like, no, do it. Put me in handcuffs. And because that's the guy that has your back, you know, every fucking call you go to. And you want them to be able to put someone in handcuffs. He couldn't get them into handcuffs. It's no different than war. It's you want somebody that, as you has your back they can like hey if something happened like i can carry you i can carry you i can carry you don't want to i can do it though
Starting point is 01:43:54 no problem you could have carried uh definitely like marine weight me i could carry you now oh i don't know i've been i stay you're in good shape yeah i'm saying marine weight me would have been a lot oh. Oh, yeah. I'd be like, Jack, I got you. And I run out like this. My arm's locked out. I'm like, good to go. Jack, now.
Starting point is 01:44:11 I'm like, Jack. Yeah. Okay. It sucks, Jack. I feel this tomorrow. I'm going to bitch at you. I'm going to bitch at you the entire time. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:18 While I'm just like repeating Matt Foley impressions in your ear. Yeah. But that's the thing. You're saying it's like these are the dudes that have your back and you want them to be able to have your fucking back at the end of the day. Absolutely. Thankfully, that guy quit. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:36 Fucking thank God. Jesus. That was a ordeal. How's Acorn Bro holding up? Have you guys talked about Acorn Man? Oh, yeah. We talked about it on the last podcast. I don't know.
Starting point is 01:44:48 I'm not going to reach out to him. He fucked up. That was a fuck up right there. Some people. 17 times in a row. 17, yeah. Dude, I'd love to do a reenactment of the guy in the car.
Starting point is 01:45:03 Who are we talking about? Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. Dude, I'd love to do a reenactment of the guy in the car. Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck. It's literally Guy Ritchie, there I was. As the slow motion rounds are flying next to his head, he's like, oh yeah. They're passing, deflecting off of each other. He's just like, oh. Do you see the female officer in that too shot also? Yeah, yeah, because she didn't know what was going on. Yeah, and he's like, they're shooting
Starting point is 01:45:29 at me from the car, and she starts mag dumping too into the car. Which hurts, like, for her, because he does say, I'm hit this. If you were like, this is happening, I'm going to fucking shoot wherever Cody said. Slightly more understandable. Yeah. But it's been Cody, I'm like, where were you hit? Cody, where were you hit? And he's like, I wasn't hit. I was like, where's the shoot wherever cody slightly more understandable yeah but it's suppressing fire maybe cody where
Starting point is 01:45:46 were you hit and he's like i wasn't hit i was like where's the gunshot at bro i would have drawn and been like i want to all right where's the shots at i want a skit of you being the boss asking questions and having to get explained to you what happened. At this point, he said, I was shot. Where were you shot? I wasn't. That's what I want.
Starting point is 01:46:16 I want you to be the sergeant asking these two what happened. At this moment, his legs hurt. That's because he did two combat roles and scraped them gently on the pavement god that guy i don't know i don't know what's gonna happen with that man he moved he taught her just in person the car is getting paid i mean to be realistic he could just go to another fucking agency and just be a cop again which is terrifying which is terrifying i i don't know how that's a fucking rule imagine you're in the army and you're like, well, fuck. I'll go to the Marines.
Starting point is 01:46:49 Yeah, exactly. That's how you're just like, why? I'll tell you this, though. At least, you know, they'd love him in Uvalde. He actually fucking shoots. Which one? Those are your two. He was saying they would love him in Uvalde.
Starting point is 01:47:01 Because he actually pulls a trigger. He does the things. Yeah. He does the things. Yeah. He does the cop things. But no, it's just like the defund the police movement got so heavy a couple years ago. The requirements for being a police officer shot down. And so they're just trying to hire a lot of people. This is the same for the military going right now. Cause, uh, we're at a Jack.
Starting point is 01:47:26 Did you know this right now for the Navy? You don't even need to GED to join. No shit. Honestly, I don't hate that role, but yeah, anybody can be a, you joined.
Starting point is 01:47:37 No, Jack, how many fucking retards did you have in basic? You were doing the war. Oh, there was, I didn't know. I get it. Well, no no but i'm just saying because
Starting point is 01:47:46 they you don't have to have a ged but you still have to have a certain asvab score that's my point do they yes there's still asvab requirements so like that's their that's their reasoning of like oh well you know if you can still get like's better? Would you rather have a dude that graduated from high school with an ASVAB score of 39? Or would you rather have some dude that dropped out when he was 16, but he's got an ASVAB score of 78? I actually, Jack, you actually told the story of you had one dude that was actually retarded in your... You've never told that? I like both of your reactions Dude this is the best thing
Starting point is 01:48:31 Because what the drill sergeant says Jack I know you've told this before Continue because I love this story They pulled a They pulled a kid out because they found out Like he was like Yeah go go sorry They pulled a kid out because they found out Like I think like two or three weeks Into it like he was like no yeah go go sorry they pulled the kid out because they found
Starting point is 01:48:46 out like i think like two or three weeks into it that he was like he's actually the drill and such is like he's retarded yeah what was the drill he's like he's he's an he's an actual retard yeah he's like he was the drill sergeant walked up and said this to the platoon. And he's like, that guy's recruiter needs to be in jail. Yeah. But this was a case that happened with the Marines. This was 2002. I wonder if it was more commonly used back then. There was a case in the Marine Corps where this recruiter went and picked up a dude from a home for people with autism to bring him to MEPS.
Starting point is 01:49:27 So he knowingly put in someone with high-level autism. Yeah. To where they needed to live in a home. Oh, no. Yeah. We needed bodies. And that's, like, I know for a fact some of the dudes i went to basic with were definitely fuck dude like there were some like looney which was his name that i'm not i cannot i hate that
Starting point is 01:50:00 it sounds like i'm making up a fucking last name his last name was looney and he was retarded he had giant lips i will remember this kid to the day a day he just looks like this you know white kid oh god oh god and looney would pee himself habitually every night who pisses fucking bed or every other night and then i my vague lo. You're a fucking great shot. I just remember sitting down at Chow. We have the last man fucking everything. Last man, boom. I'm like two minutes of my meal, and it sounds like someone's spilling water. I'm like, that's fucking weird.
Starting point is 01:50:38 And I look over, and there's just liquid dripping out from Looney. He's like, just want to pee myself. I'm like, God god fucking god damn it and i he wasn't my company my platoon thankfully it was in first platoon and the level the drill science was like what the fuck they just hated this kid he could pt kinda he's fucking slow he pissed himself all the time and then we did shooting day oh no loony me and two other people shot expert there was four of us that shot expert and basic out of how many uh platoon is 40 81 20 like 180 people 200 people so drill all the people that shot expert
Starting point is 01:51:26 drill swimmers are super nice to us you're a god damn genius I'd recommend you for OCS you told me to I remember drill swimmers Jackson at that time fucking loony god damn
Starting point is 01:51:44 loony you can shit! Holy shit, you got expert. Go get cake. Go get cake. Dude, Looney can shoot. What the? That epiphany of that drill sergeant registering this dude
Starting point is 01:52:00 is dangerous on the battlefield. I was like, oh, they're going to make him deploy. You remember day one when all the fat kids I was like, oh, they're going to make him deploy. You remember day one when all the fat kids cried? Oh, God. What do they do on day one? Oh, just like day one of basic training.
Starting point is 01:52:15 No, it was food. It was dinner of day one. Because like Sharky, you get there at like noon. You just get the dog shit smoked out of you the whole day. It's just terrible. All right, we're going to dinner. You go to dinner. You stand at, you know, fucking parade rest in front of your food on the table after you get it and then like okay eat you all sit down and it's like 10 seconds 10 seconds 15 whatever like you get a bite of food maybe if you were really fast and they're like okay dump your
Starting point is 01:52:40 trays get the fuck outside and then it's like i don't know we had three fucking fat kids crying and quit that day oh yeah they dropped out that day we had a lot of fat people especially during my cycle we had people that couldn't do a single sit-up on under 18 x-ray contracts that's special forces contracts that means you signed up for five goddamn years wow and you signed up not being able to do a single sit-up because at that time recruiters not give a fuck no they just put like yeah i have my numbers i get to leave early today have i told you my recruiting story no okay well well okay so it's funny like we all had the same experience because it's like navy marine army, Army. No, so I enlisted under an EOD contract because I wanted to be EOD.
Starting point is 01:53:28 Smart, smart man. Yeah, and I got into, because to be an EOD, you got to go through kind of the same test that like SEALs and divers and those guys go through. Yeah, a lot of swimming stuff. A lot of swimming stuff. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:53:40 So I got there and I couldn't swim fast. I couldn't do one fucking pull up. And yeah, but my recruiter fudged my numbers so I could get into the EOD program. And so I get there and we do the I can't remember what the test is called. We get there and I'm like, I can't do one real pull up because like my recruiter wrote down. It's like, yeah, he can do you only had to do like like seven dead hang pull ups at the time. And they don't even tell you. you're not even yeah there's a big difference between zero and seven dead hang pull-ups they're like do a pull-up and i was like kipping and they're like
Starting point is 01:54:16 oh wait you can't do a pull-up can you and so the one of the dive mode guys brought me into his office and was like who the fuck is your recruiter and so like i'm 19 at the time like i don't know i know him and yeah so that that was the whole thing it's like they're just recruiting they're bringing in people like anyone they could bring in i couldn't even do one pull-up you're supposed to be able to do like six or seven dead hangs they do this is like recruiter's life. During my time, they said, Eli, as long as you max out your PT score and shoot expert, they will give you airborne. You can do whatever you want. Because I had a GED.
Starting point is 01:54:54 Oh, I have a story about this. GED, you can't get shit. Like, that was the main thing. They're like, oh, you're a GED. I had to get my GED to join. That was the only reason I got a GED. So I was like, okay, fucking dope. that was the only reason I got a GED so I was like okay fucking dope I can probably shoot I can definitely shoot expert
Starting point is 01:55:07 and then I can I'm physically fit I like to work out I did both graduated with honors I was like true sorry can I get my fucking airborne go ranger and all that and he's like no I was like huh
Starting point is 01:55:22 why my brain was so broken they're like no you can't do that but my my recruiter said if i do both of these things i can i can do what i want fucking recruiter lied got sent thankfully i had first round shout out he looked at like pt score and shot expert he's like you're coming with us you're going to third platoon here you go we'll fucking take care of it i was like oh don't and that dude is like that's the guy it's like went delta he's like high speed dude like god bless your soul and then all the guys know him from the unit now and it's the weirdest thing
Starting point is 01:56:03 when i'm like did you know this guy and And they're like, you know, holy shit. Oh, my God. Let's tell the story about when he got drunk and kicked off a plane. I was like, go on. I want to hear how much of a shit bag. Eli, I have an idea. The gang does the ass fabs. Holy fuck.
Starting point is 01:56:23 We could arrange that. Oh, it's like, it's like, who's smarter than a fifth grader type shit? gang does the as fabs. Holy fuck. We could arrange that. Oh, it's like, it's like, we treat it like top gear. And then all our guests have to do the as fab now. And we have a leadership score. Where's your name?
Starting point is 01:56:43 Oh, holy shit. Cody. I hear the sunny music. We're getting played. Where's your name at? Oh, last point. Holy shit, Cody. I hear the sunny music. It's like, do-do-do-do. The gang does the ASVABs. We have everyone that comes on to the ASVAB, and we put a fucking leadership board.
Starting point is 01:56:59 How were you ranked? It has to be. It's really funny until we get a government contract. Bro, they want me to be a nuke. You got high on that. They wanted me to be a nuke at the time. And I was like, no, I want to be EOD. I want to do that thing that Jeremy Renner did in the movie.
Starting point is 01:57:18 I heard it's realistic. So I was a medic and I was in HH hhc national guard which is like the headquarters unit so it was like the only people that i drilled with were all the medics for the entire battalion were all localized in one platoon there all the scout sniper infantry guys and then like all the radio guys and the scout snipers were they were good but they were always getting in trouble they would all go out to the bar every night and end up sleeping in the same person's house and like if somebody forgot to set an alarm they weren't at formation when they were supposed to be and they got or like they would all you'd literally just walk into
Starting point is 01:58:00 the armory and they'd be all sleeping on the wrestling mats drunk and like most of them concealed carried so there'd just be loaded clocks all over this wrestling mat with a bunch of drunk 19 year olds so like so there was that and then they got a new um platoon sergeant he was an e7 from the 75th full tower power, like special forces, Ranger airborne, whole nine yards, all the tabs directly out of active duty. And one scout sniper showed up to formation that day.
Starting point is 01:58:35 And that was a dude that had like a family emergency and wasn't there the day prior. And he's like, where's everybody else? I don't know. I wasn't here yesterday. I have no idea and that dude had to do the whole like first 39 out of ranks saluted bro he smoked that whole fucking
Starting point is 01:58:55 platoon for 13 hours we had to send eight people to the hospital it It was horrible. It's called corrective exercising. Nick, after that, how many people were late to formation? Still a bunch. They were retarded. Oh my god. It was ongoing. Holy shit. They had a drinking problem.
Starting point is 01:59:20 It usually corrects itself. I mean, for a while it was better. But yeah, no. It was like the first time I'd ever had like they need they want two medics and an ambulance sent out across the parking lot
Starting point is 01:59:34 yeah they smoking the dog shit they were low crawling in a field for hours it was horrible Jack I'm gonna ask you about your worst smoke session after Cody closes this out. If you want to see this on the after show. Come check us out on the after show.
