Donut. That's on you. Hi, everyone. Welcome to the Unsubscribe Podcast. I am joined today by Eli DoubleFap, Fat Electrician, Grandpa Gaming, and Brandonrera myself donut operator thank you so much for watching all of our dumb content well what's up everyone holy crap shit we can say shit you cuss not on your channel but on this one you will dude we are so excited everyone is super stoked for you to come out in like a three-day notice, I think. Really?

Oh, God. Yeah. Try one. Oh, yeah. Technically, it was one. What? Well, that's a big discrepancy. Like, three-day notice.

Well, technically, yes. It was like 12 hours. But, you know. I blame Nick. Nick was like, I want to be there on that one. Can he make range day? I was like, okay. Call Graham. So, I was like uh okay call call graham so i was like hey

so you're aware it's pretty rare that all four hosts are here at the same time because we're all real busy so we try to have two of us here maybe three of us here but like sometimes all four of us are like no and really happy to be here. But this guy right here, this guy, I watch on YouTube all the time. Dude, that was my favorite. I was talking about him on the drive to the restaurant. I was like, oh, yeah, we got Donna. We have Brandon.

We have Fat Electrician. Oh, you like Fat Electrician. He's a medic's a medic combat medic and then he does a lot of history stuff World War II blah blah blah and he's like

oh I've never heard of him he walks into the restaurant sees him he's like I know you okay and he's like oh

perfect I was watching you on the plane I was like well well that's his best friend Nick is so hard right now I know

I know I was watching your videos yesterday too so it all works out you're getting much of it huh I think it's so hard right now. I know. I know. I was watching your videos yesterday, too. So it all works out. He's bricked up for Gramps. You should have watched one episode. Okay, all you young folk out there, just la, la, la, la, la. Thankfully, none of them watched that.

Where they have written, too. He has written worse. We do have a baby. Oh yeah, one baby we signed. One baby, yeah. We do have one baby that we signed. During the live show we had a baby brought. Really?

Like a four month old? Three, three months old. It's like three months old. Most well behaved baby I've ever met. Didn't cry once the entire show. It was probably all the coding. In like a four hour show. You should have been on my plane today.

That kid left and didn't shut up until he landed. That's how Cody's one of your first viral clips was on Reddit. With that baby just screaming in the background. I don't know this one. Really? I don't know this one either. No, I'm just filming my face. I think you were on the flight with me.

I was filming my face face and I was just like and there was a baby behind me in the seat just this is 2018 you're probably not hanging out with Brandon yet God, yeah, it's like maybe what six years ago? This might have been a minute ago.

It was probably right. It was probably the year we met. Yeah, that was on Reddit because you made it to the front page minute ago. It was probably the year we met. Yeah. That was on Reddit because you made it to the front page on that. I was like, hey, what's up, boy? What's up, boy? Dude, my favorite text I've ever received was from you. The first thing you said back, I was like, hey, da-da-da-da-da. Graham's welcome.

We'd love to have you out. His first question, he's like, can I bring my gun? Then he sent pictures. And then he sent pictures of his gun. I was like, oh, this dude's dope as shit. Also, what is that? I have to ask. As a firearm fanatic, I'm very curious.

It's a custom-built by Mike's Gun Shop in St. Peter's. 6.5 Creedmoor with a high-powered night force scope on it. 22-inch barrel, dragon, muzzle brake. I see a man of culture. Because you're a long-distance shooter. Yes, I am. Yeah, you have, dude. The amount of stories, I was like, okay, I don't even know where to start.

I was like, this is going to be like a history segment. I'm an expert marksman. Rifle, expert marksman, pistol. Long gun is my specialty. Everyone loves that one viral video that you did where you're like, you put it up here

and then headshot, headshot, headshot. I'm like, oh my God, that's amazing. This old man fucks. He's dropping everyone. I was like, holy shit. Because I think we sent that around our group. Yeah. Yeah.

So, yeah. And thankfully, you're. Now you're embarrassing me. No, no, dude, it was seriously in our group chat. We're like, holy shit, watch this guy play Battlefield. This dude just zeroed a rifle in combat in a video game.

Like, not only was I impressed with you, I was also impressed with the coding of the game that they even took that into consideration. I was allowed to work. Oh, there's levels to video games. Oh. The only thing they don't have in that game is Windage and Coriolis. That's it. If he knows about Coriolis, there's levels to video games. Oh. The only thing they don't have in that game is windage and Coriolis. That's it.

If he knows about Coriolis. That's why he does like two miles. What's your longest shot? With that gun? No, in total. Yeah, period. What's the longest shot you've ever done? In real life?

Yeah. 1,800 plus. With that gun? Yeah, 6.5. Now, with the 6.5, it's a harder shot, too. Whoa, with 6.5? That's a harder... Okay, so if you don't know, that is a way harder shot

just because the ballistics... It's a lighter round. And the ballistics, it's not as... A heavier round is more stable. That's why you usually do a.338 or... I mean, 6.5 on the laser beam. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it's not as... A heavier round is more stable. That's why you usually do a 3-3-8 or... I mean, 6-5 is a laser beam. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it is.

Past a mile, anything is difficult. But the thing with the 6-5 is if there's any kind of wind, crosswind, you better compensate for it or you're going to be like a mile wide. Yeah. Shit. Yeah. Shit. Yeah. When you have a spotter saying two up, three over, just go a little bit more. Jeez.

My farthest shot ever, I think, was 1,100 yards with a.338 Lapua, and that was after spending $200 to somebody else's ammo at that event. The boat tail. I was so proud of that. Was it the boat tail? Probably. Yeah. Did it have a pink tip? No, I don't believe so.

It's a custom. What's your furthest shot, Cody? The one we did at the helicopter event. I got 1,100. Oh, really? No, no. Yeah. Wow.

Three times in a row. The range we're going to tomorrow ain't that far. It's optimal 6'5 distance of like 55 meters. It's a great pistol and shotgun range if you're a bad shot.

Now if there's no one on the range you have a little more distance because you can go backwards. But since it's like packed out. You'll be one of the most experienced shooters there tomorrow so we're walking people right up to a mountain of dirt and being like alright even if you cut loose it's still gonna hit dirt and not go anywhere our biggest problem is inexperienced shooters with machine guns that after seven rounds it's anti-aircraft yeah yeah god we do have range days tomorrow man i know i'm like oh yeah everyone's coming home i like shotguns that's your brother my furthest shots are shotgun yeah 25 yards

huh you live in Iowa. Yeah. Yeah, there's so much space there. You could shoot down the highway and get 18 miles. Yeah. You know that we're only allowed to hunt in Iowa with.45-70, and that's like new, and shotguns. Yeah, because it'll go around the planet. Yeah.

Iowa's so flat, you're not allowed to hunt with like.30-06 or anything yeah because it'll go around the planet yeah i was so flat you're not allowed to hunt with like 30 out six or anything because it'll just go for two miles and hit so yeah you're only up until like five years ago you could only hunt slug shotgun and bow in iowa and that was it and with the lever actions becoming popular again they finally let you hunt with straight wall cartridge so basically 45 70 yeah and that's that's all you can hunt with an iowa because it's so flat there do some bigger ones like some 450 bush master and stuff like that it's not too bad i mean you're still shooting a pool ball at something it doesn't go very far yeah the longer i shoot especially like 1875 feet you're looking at like a five second delay ball at something. It doesn't go very far. The long range shooting, especially

1875 feet, you're looking at a five second delay to hear the sound. Buffering? Yeah, from that, it's like, ow! Buffering. It's just like the guy that I told you about, the postal rage guy that explains

when he's sitting in the post office. I don't know. Oh, it postal rage yeah postal rage sounds like he's a postal worker I thought you're talking about the UPS shooting back in the day no this is the guy that's like is he on the internet that's his name he he did a reaction video on TikTok. And, you know, he's saying, this must be the most dangerous man in America. Trust me, if you piss this guy off, he's going to hit you from a mile out. It's hilarious. Those guys, I would not have that name as a anything on social media. Brian'd be like, Brian, your name's Postal Rage.

You okay, bud? Ted Kaczynski, your name is Postal Rage. It happens. Bro, do you remember the guy that's sitting in the plastic chair and the police shoot the gun out of his hand? Yeah. He's just like chilling like this. Like the SWAT sniper.

Yeah, the SWAT sniper just shoots the gun right out of his hand I saw that he didn't know what happened yeah he looks up I had a gun in my hand where'd it go what the hell happened ow that sucked

so Gramps comes from a long line of fucking warriors and military. Like, how many people in your family was in the military? My granddad, my Uncle Walker, my Uncle Joe Walker, who collided with the XB-17, was killed in 64. My dad. Then there's my wife.

Me. My dad, then there's my wife, me, and my ex-wife were all military. That's crazy. My daughter's mother. And even starting with your, like, what'd your granddad do? This fucking dope as shit. My granddad was a World War II fighter ace. Flew P-51s. Oh, nice. And the squadron he was in was called

Bulldogs. And he flew a P-51 with the name on the side down for double. And 16 and a half kills. European or Pacific theater? European. He downed 16 planes. 16 and a half kills. European or Pacific theater? European. Yeah.

He downed 16 planes. 16 and a half. Now, here's the question. He's a triple ace. How do you get a half a kill? And I have to explain this. I'm sorry. I didn't understand the half.

Every time I say that, a half a kill is when two pilots shoot at the same plane and both get hits and that plane goes down. Each pilot gets credit for half a kill. Oh, that makes sense. I did not know that. Yeah. I've never heard that ever. Where the fuck? Yes, in my country.

Yeah, we do combat fighting times. So grandpa helps spit roast a Nazi. Eiffel Tower, that dude. Great, great grandpa IRL. You want to go halves on a Nazi? He's the 17th. He's a triple ace, though. Yes.

16, that's a big deal being a triple fighter ace homeboys is fucking slaying I worked in avionics I worked on the side of the navy with airplanes I've never heard a half of a kill so that's really cool

well the last aces to ever come out of any war was Vietnam. Oh, shit. Yeah. And the most after Vietnam is, I think, one pilot in F-16 or F-15 shot down three planes in Kosovo during that operation. Oh, yeah.

To be fair, everybody we fought after that had difficulty understanding second-story buildings, let alone airplanes. I generally say that. Do we get, like, a real history lesson?

This is about... Buildings are hard. Step aside, Nick. This is dope. So your granddad did that. He served his entire and then he got out. He actually retired three stars. Oh, God.

So he was in the Army, right? Army Air Corps. He was in the Army Air Corps. Then when the Army split up. Stood up the Air Force. And then it became Air Force and then Army. It used to be the United States Army Air Corps then in 49 I think was 49 they split off into Air Force hmm Navy has the most planes is all I'm saying It's okay, buddy. It's okay.

Guess what? Army has the most boats. He's true. I know. The Army has the largest Navy in the world. Yeah, I'm not going to fight him on this show. There might be a fight happening during this podcast. I feel tension right now. He's beating the shit out of each other.

Dear God, not for the grams. You know he hates it when we fight. Cody, the appropriate response is, oh, yeah? Well, the Navy has its own branch of the military, the Marine Corps, and it's got the fourth biggest air force on Earth after our first biggest air force. God, the U.S. military is way too much power we're kind of op yeah super op so then don't worry the current u.s government is working on nerfing us that's all they're doing they're doing a great job yeah no god i

eli wake up huh i know that the ghosted pillow is super comfortable and has cooling technology, but we're shooting an ad right now. You mean this GhostBed pillow? That one! Cooling technology?

And what's crazy about this is what is special about you and your dad? We are one of the very few that were

ever in country at the same time. He was at Da Nang. I was off the coast up at Yankee Station as a rescue swimmer while they were doing operations into Hanoi with the Navy. You guys were in theater at the same exact time.

The rescue swimmers? So you're telling me Charlie really doesn't surf? The things I can do with a razor right now. Welcome to the podcast. The only thing I have to with a razor right now. Welcome to the podcast. The only thing I have to contribute here is a joke, you know? I was like, hey, you might just check out a little bit of a podcast. Not the clips. Those are usually pretty docile.

As long as we're welcoming him to the podcast. We have a game that we do with all of our new guests. Oh, no. We have our own superhero group called The Offenders. As long as we're welcoming him to the podcast, we have a game that we do with all of our new guests. Oh, no. We have our own superhero group called The Offenders. Here's how this works. You get to pick your own superpower that you want. We get to pick the offset, the downside.

So, for example. Why are you looking at me? I'm scared. I don't know. I don't know. offsets for said superpowers. We're really bad friends. Terrible friends. Yeah. So you have bad friends who like gaming. Our entire audience base is 18 to 44s. My superpower is telekinesis.

Do we have one of those? We do. Who had telekinesis? I forget. Who did have telekinesis? It might have been one of the live shows. Oh, it might. Yeah, I actually think it was at the live show.

So no. Some of us remember what we said. So okay, telekinesis. Gramps can be like, not with that sound. Should we tell him our powers first? Let's go over our powers. Let's get some context. The audience is just like, don't tell Gramps

any of your powers. I can slap him and not even raise a hand. With telekinesis. Oh, man. I can hit you without even moving. You just slap yourself. So Cody can fly. We started there, huh?

I have an 870 shotgun. That's no problem. So I can fly, but I have to shout racial slurs while I fly. So when he's trying to save me and Brandon's neighborhood, not a good air. He brings a ladder. Climbs up there. Burning building. Just bring a ladder.

Come on down, bro. We're good. We're good. Can you fly? Not today. Not today, dude. Not today. Mine is invincibility.

However, I'm constantly myself and I don't remember it. So I just wake up in the morning and my body is still wherever. Yeah. He's depressed. Very depressed. The ceiling fan? Waking up and seeing myself floating over the ceiling fan, it's a little jarring sometimes. Oh. Sometimes two. Sometimes three.

I'm like Professor Xavier. Okay. But only God damn it, I can't look him in the eye while I'm say this. I forgot about yours. You know Professor Xavier from X-Men? Sure.

Okay, I'm post-nut clarity man. I have his powers, but only for like the first 45 seconds after I come. I can see why he couldn't look me in the eye. Do you ever get the podcast yet. He was like, it was an honor. He's like. Yeah. It was just a flash in the pan.

It's just like when people say bad jokes on my chat, I just say, let me know when I have to laugh. You're going to love this audience. The audience is going to be like, oh, man. You're going to read the comments and be like, oh. All their audience is done. I went on their podcast. Just to let you know, folks, this is a great group of guys right here.

I love them. You don't have to lie. Okay. No, it's What? Oh jeez What are you doing down there Grant? He's paying me for this Oh he's fitting in real quick

In the Navy Don't go there Good dude Alright well Oh yeah I'm a crime cuck. I can travel the speed of light, but like phase through anything for five minutes after I arrive at wherever I'm going. So really can't stop crime. So you're saying you can write the check

and intercept it before it gets there and still say it's in the mail? I could. Basically. It's way different than we explained my thing usually it's way more appropriate yeah way more appropriate usually i'm like i'm sorry lady i can't yeah once he gets there just watch for five has to watch the crime commence for five minutes a fair witness five minutes later he can write a really good crime report. Okay.

But he gets there and he phases through everything. He just can't do anything for five minutes. Okay. He can get there quickly, very quickly. I have the best superpower so far. Well, now we get to choose your offset. That is your Dr. Pepper and Cherry. Dr. Pepper with Cherry. See, now you're good to go.

All right. What's Gramps off set Telekinesis So he can make people do Things they don't want to do Every time that you go to use your powers The controls are either Mirrored or inverted And you don't know what they are

Until you go to use your power So like if you Try to know what they are until you go to use your power. So, like, if you try to lift somebody up and make them go left, maybe the controls are mirrored and they accidentally go right. Are you writing the rules before the game even starts? This is how the game is played. So you've got about a 25% chance

you're going to do what you mean to. A kid is falling off a building. He slams him on the ground. He explodes the child. He's trying falling off a building. He slams him on the ground. He's trying to lift him up. But it's just like... Oh, the controls are backwards. Oh, that's the way it works. Yeah. Okay.

You throw something in front of an object to stop a bullet. Kill somebody else. This person still gets hit by a bullet. Clips! It's like, I'm so sorryrips. I'm so sorry. Okay. I just, Cody's like, ah. I'll save you.

Wham. Remember, folks, I was asked to come out here. There's a building on fire and he just makes more fire. Oh, man, that's actually really... 25% chance it's gonna go right. Most of the time, I'm like, please, just don't. Stop. It's worse when you do anything.

But it could be the... That sounds like any of us being asked to help with anything. Yeah, that's about right. All the setup for the live shows. No, no, no, it's fine. Just stay in the green room. Please don't. Yeah, that's about right. All the setup for the live shows. No, no, no, it's fine. Just stay in the green room. Please don't. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, except for Tony's Twitter. We just burn that down all day long. God. That's his offset. There's a 25% chance it goes right. There's only two things in this world that terrify me. I bet I could give you a third. I don't think so.

I believe you, but also, what if I told you that the gentleman to your right was running and winning for a seat in U.S. Congress? I can believe that. He's got that face. Well, nobody else can. That was the biggest insult I've ever heard. Those dang shady Mexicans. That does sting a little.

He has that face for a congressman. It's like, not trustworthy. Gramps low-key just said you have a very punchable face. Gramps is a savage. It's that German word. It's bagpfeifengescheiss. It's the word for punchable face.

There's only two things on this worth that terrify me. I'm all ears. Spiders and a woman with a gun. Female police officers. Yes, I understand. Jesus Christ. I never thought about that Any woman with a gun

But a woman with a gun legally That's a different story Did you see the acorn video? Oh my god You've never seen a woman legally with a gun? Oh my wife yeah It's the only one Is she dangerous? No she almost shot me one night So she is dangerous legally with a gun? Oh, my wife, yeah. It's the only one.

Is she dangerous? No, she almost shot me one night. So she is dangerous. Oh, yeah. All 110 pounds of her. Current or X? No, current. Okay.

What'd you do? I came home. I forgot my... I worked for Motorola, and I had a key, an electronic key. Came back. She's standing at the top of the stairs with my Model 19 like this. Our Rottweiler, our 189-pound Rottweiler right there.

Someone had broken into the house, and I walked in the front door. Oh. Yeah. So there was someone in your house? Yes. And the thing is, Caesar knew who it was because he did not alert. Yeah, yeah. If you've ever seen a hundred and eighty-nine-pound Rottweiler.

Oh, that's the Rottweiler. Yeah, got it. He just actually has the dog whisperer. He came in through the garage, went into the laundry room, and stole... I used to paint little miniatures. Oh, shit.

For Napoleonics Wars. He stole two trays of Napoleonics. That's what you're going to steal? What? Are they like very valuable and collectible? Oh, yeah. That's still oddly specific. Like he would have had to have known.

It's weird that a thief would know that. We knew who it was right off the bat when they wound up in Kenosha, Wisconsin for sale. Oh, I know who got these. I might know too. Yeah, like what a wildly specific thing to steal. Like if someone breaks into your house... My Napoleonic collection.

No! And they knew. Well, I belonged to a club there. And every Wednesday we would go down and we'd big boards set out where you put out the Napoleonic figures, French, Saxon, Baden, Great Britain. And just have an entire day of war there. Dude, Napoleon's history, if you don't know, that dude was a fucking savage on how

he did stuff he was like oh i got well he killed like the 30 000 when he overthrew the 30 000 or 20 000 he had like 800 dudes or 300 he's like oh we just position here here here and here they'll do this through the riots and then we can pin them in and then kill them all it fucking worked that's how he got his first big promotion, I think, if I remember vaguely on that history lesson. Of course, you wouldn't know that if you watched the movie. You'd just know that he had a weird relationship with his wife because that's all they focused on the entire time.

I didn't even bother watching it. I heard they did him so dirty. I haven't seen it. It's really bad. I heard they basically just talked shit about him and made him a cuck the whole time. Yeah, pretty much. What's the word cuck

mean, Gramps? Oh, God. It's like, I'm going to drink on that one. I need another beer. It's just the chair in the corner of the hotel room. That's what it means. The third chair. The third chair. Gramps is like, I need booze. Anyways, when did you start playing video games on livestream?

When did you start playing video games, period, actually? He was there when it was written. My first computer game was 1976 called B-1 Bomber. Told you. No shit. Yeah. And on a Mac. But I've been playing arcade games longer than that.

What's your favorite? Pizza Hut. The movies. You know, you'd wait for the movie to start and be out there playing them arcade games. Like an actual arcade cabinet. Yeah. Yeah. What's your favorite of all time?

Dragon's Lair. Dragon's Lair? Yeah. Yeah. That's a good one. Yeah. That's a four. Wait. Which one is Dragon's Lair? Four. Dragon's Lair. Dragon's Lair? Yeah. Yeah, that's a good one. That's a four. Wait, which one is Dragon's Lair? Dragon's Lair. Oh, that's one of the hardest

that game. Okay, Brandon, this is do you know this? I know the name. I don't know. I've never played it. So these are the young, young kids. Dragon's Lair. Dragon's Lair is you want to explain? It is brutal. It's, you have to go through the storyline, and then it begins out really easy.

But then you get to points in the game where you have to get through that door you like you have a checkerboard um floor and then you you see these lights and you have to match those lights to get to the door and if you don't you get fried this is like and you have to do it with the little joystick and it was one of the first fmv games because everything was this cut scene moving into the next piece that's fmv yeah that's the very first game that used um cinematics cinematics in a in an arcade game what is fmv um well that's what does that actually mean full motion video so it was you would do the combo you be like up left up up down if you nailed it your guy would jump through and get through the next obstacle or he would just die and then you have to put in new quarters and there was no room for

error during this time this is like you had 0.5 seconds it's like, hey, this exact code, you died. New quarter, new quarter, new quarter. I must have put a thousand quarters in there. Boom!

that's old school so you grew up during the arcade period and then your first PC was the one bomber on the Apple One computer. The Apple One? Yeah, I had to drive take a bus ride 45 minutes to the Naval Amphibious Base Library where they had the computer there. So you're an OG gamer. Oh yeah. Dude, I thought we grew up on video games.

Holy shit. My perspective of video gaming is watching how video games evolved. And that's what makes someone in my age that understand it so good. Because you know how the game is supposed to be played. And when you know how a game was supposed to be played and you see something fishy, I mean, it's instant.

That ain't the way it works. You get those old because you grew up during the Nintendo and this is before, I mean, there was just strategy, guys, but there was no holding your hand on those old video games. It's like, you die, you die, you die. Kind of like Tarkov.

Just a high learning curve. I don't know what to do. on those old video games. It's like, you die, you die, you die. Yeah, that's it. Kind of like Tarkov. Yes. Just a high learning curve. You're like, I don't know what to do. I get all kinds of people, play Tarkov, play Hell Let Loose. Hell, I can't even see the people shooting me in Tarkov. Hell Let Loose, I have to run too far

to get anywhere. And then, what's the other one? Arma 2 and 3. Arma 3, yeah. And then Squad. I can't see the people who shoot. I know where the. And then Squad. I can't see the people. I know where the shots are coming from. I can't see them. Those are those big...

What are those? War simulators? Yeah. Yeah. And one of my biggest mottos, before I became Grandpa Gaming, I was known as WLR Bullseye. That was my call sign in the Navy, Bullseye.

And then they made me change it. And my motto was, if I can see you, I'm going to hit you. Which, I mean, is a good segue in what did you do in the military? Mostly military law enforcement. But I'm an expert rifle, expert pistol.

And then you did diver? Diver, yes. And then what, you a rescue diver? Well, there's a story about that. I started out on the Oklahoma City as a boast and smite seaman, worked my way up to becoming a rescue swimmer. And there were five of us on the ship, and we each had shifts on who we went out, if we had to go out and pick somebody up. Then I moved on to the missile house where I was being trained to gunner's mate missile.

They blackballed the missile system I was working in and transferred me to a submarine tender of all. And that's when I met Carl Brashear and Master Diver Colvin to interview for Becoming a Diver. Who are those? You got interviewed by Carl Brashear? He was there at the time of the interview, and I met him. Shook his hand, and that was 1975. Damn.

This is impressing the hell out of Nick so I would like to be let in on the context. History lesson. Was Carl Brasher Cuban Gooding Jr. or Robert De Niro? Yeah, that was Cuban Gooding Jr. Okay. Cuba. Cuba. Okay, now it's making more sense. I'm like, what? Okay. Guy that

lost his leg during a diving accident? Yes. He was actually on the back of one of the rescue tugs when the cable snapped and took his leg off. Yeah, those are gnarly. I mean... Was it the arresting cable for the aircraft that were landing? No, no, no.

It was on a salvage tug. Okay, gotcha. Was it the arresting cable for the aircraft that were landing? No, no, no. It was on a salvage tug. Okay, gotcha. The load was too great. The line snapped. Yeah. Boom. Because he was the first black diver, correct?

Yes. So he was the first black diver, went through hell to get that. And I mean a living hell. Yeah. Because down then, the schools were in the South. Yep. And my school, when I went through second class diving, South School was between Pier 5 and 6 at 36th Street Naval Station. I was the last class to be trained in the Mark V diving helmet,

the old school diving helmet. Holy shit, you actually like wore that fucking crazy stuff? Yeah. Was that in Panama City at the time? No. Okay. They moved the second class school over to Naval Amphibious Base, Coronado. Then I went to first class diving salvage school in Anacosta, Maryland, which is

where they had the old presidential yacht right there at the same pier that our diving barge was at, which is now the shooting headquarters for NCIS. No doubt. Yeah. And it says right there Anacosta Naval Shipyard right there when you when you see NCIS how much okay

the Mark 4 Mark 5 what was the helmet called Mark 5 the Mark 5 how much did that uniform weigh with the weights

total of 180 to 200 pounds. So an Eli or a brand just mounted on that. And the thing is that where the barge was from the water surface to the top of the barge was 12 feet. And when you come out of the water, there's a pet cock here where you, on the inside, you operate it with your cheek. You open it up. And then you dip yourself in the water, and it forces all the air out of that suit. Then they start bringing you up.

You have to traverse that 12 feet with no air because they turn the air off. Yeah. Well, that's convenient. Yeah, you got to traverse it slowly too. Well, they pull you in like this and you have to pull yourself out from the ladder

when they're trying to bring you in and you take one rung at a time, one rung at a time. Yeah, because if you come up. And you've got 50 pounds of lead weight. You've got 25 pounds on each foot. Really? 25 pounds on each foot? Because you're wearing so much weight

it'll fuck you up. Really? Oh yeah. We've had divers just pass out because they couldn't make the 12 feet Really? Oh, yeah. Yeah, you see the weight that does it. No, it's the lack of air You're lacking oxygen and it weighs so much so as you're coming up you have to do it slowly

your muscles are burning more oxygen because they're moving significantly more weight so it's not like you can hold your breath the normal amount and they're trying to hug pull you in and they do it on purpose to see how much you can take

and the people that can't do it they have three tries the people that can't do it on purpose to see how much you can take. And the people that can't do it, they have three tries. The people that can't do it, they don't pass. What was your scariest moment during all of that? Sorry, that would be terrifying, just being in the water with all that gear on. The scariest moment? I feel like every military training has its apex hard point where it's like, if you make it past this point, you've made your. Yeah, it's all downhill from there.

What's the hardest part of that training at that time? The hardest part for me was. I guess the classroom, Because there's so much... When you come out of the classroom, when you graduate, you graduate with an associate's degree in oceanography. That's how tough it is.

Yeah. You have to be smart. Somewhat. Somewhat, yeah. We're determined. We're both. A little bit so that way so like Cuba Cuba good and junior here that's when that video of him walking with that one leg cuz that what's his real name

Carbosher Carbosher so when he's actually doing that test that's actually what happens like hey you have to do five steps or three that actually happened but his suit that's was a helium suit which weighs about 280 pounds full so brandon so 280 pounds but he has one leg on a nut yeah so that pressure on this because you guys imagine putting like like you're squatting, put three plates on each side and you have to take five steps with that with one leg. And all that pressure on that. And this is not like now where you're like, hey, we can drill a titanium rod into your femur. It's way better. This is OG prosthetics where all that pressure is put on one point.

Homeboy was God dang. That's fucking crazy to me one of his pictures is honestly like one of my favorite pictures of all time there's a picture of him later in his career after he had his amputation everything where he's sitting down in the chair and he's just looking over and they're like they're either just taking the helmet off him or about to put it on and it's like oh oh that's the one where they're taking it off that's after he made the walk and then he had to walk back to the chair sit

down and then they took his helmet off it's one of those pictures where it's like oh that's the main character it's a badass picture dude that's crazy and then he was so he was the first black diver, and then he kept his. He kept his.

Diving status. Diving status, yes. Because they were trying to restrict it because he wouldn't let go. If you look on the picture that I showed you, you'll still see he's got the diving pin with the tridents and the dolphins. Oh, he's a determined motherfucker. That's one of my favorite pictures in military history. That's an early picture. Yeah.

That's an early picture. I think that's on the tugboat where he actually lost his leg. It's truck month at GMC. Tackle the open road with added confidence in a 2025 Sierra 1500 Pro Graphite at 0% financing for up to 72 months. With an available 5.3

liter V8 engine, 20 inch high gloss black painted aluminum wheels, off-road suspension with available 2 inch factory installed lift kit, plus a towing capacity of up to 13,200 pounds. You'll ready for anything this truck month truck month is on now ask your GMC dealer for details dude this oh this is gonna be one of my favorite pockets oh my god so thank you by the way for saying scooby-Doo villain, because that immediately made me do a job job. You're like, oh, that makes way more sense.

So what is the deepest you went in your diving apparatus? 420 feet in the reconfession chamber. Fuck, no. My class graduation dive was 320 feet off Point Loma, just outside the kelp beds. There's a trench there that goes like 3,800 feet. But what they do is they take two boats out, they drop a lead clump here with a rope over to this lead clump. That's 320, 360. I think one class even went 380. So you go down, you go across, and this is in scuba, not the hard hat. You go across, and then you come up.

And then when you come up, you go like this, diver okay. And then they set you on the boat for 20 minutes. If you get the bends, you're going to know it. And then it's Hobby Lob after that, after everybody graduates. And what is the bends really quick for people that don't know? It's when you get nitrogen buildup in the blood and you get bubbles. And I still get this to this day. My ears and my nose will get like nitrogen feeling coming out of that, out of my ears.

It's a tingling sensation when the nitrogen starts to leave the thin parts around the nose, the corners of the eyes, the ears. Thin layers of epidermis. Yeah. Bro, that is. And it's a killer. Yeah, this is. And it's why you're not supposed to fly. I forget how many hours after.

You're not supposed to fly 24 hours after you dive, and you're not supposed to dive 48 hours after you come off a flight. Otherwise you die. Well, there's a possibility. Unlike me, I came off a flight, got to Guam. Eight hours later, I was in the water. But I didn't go below 32 feet. So you're safe up until, God, I have so many guns.

This world is so foreign to any of us. I'm like, if you talk about war, I just got you, bro. There's a rule in the Navy diving. And the Navy diving units are the world's foremost leaders in safety. Most of the, you got Nowy and Patty out there that are diving associations. Where do they get all their information? From Navy diving schools and diving med schools because they are the leaders out there for diving safety. The number one rule is 60 for 60.

60 feet, 60 minutes, that's it. But you can dive 28 to 30 feet forever. My longest dive is three hours and 20 minutes at 22 feet in Guam. 89 degree water. So when you go, like your

400, what was your deepest? 420 in the recompression chamber. And then you're just like all the way down. What is that like with, how many tubes are leading up to the water for breathing? Well, no, the recompression chambers, they put 12 people in the chamber. Then they put a bucket with a styrofoam glass of water in the bucket. Then they take you down 420 feet and we're all in

a circle watching this glass get from here to here. miniature and then I said something like oh that's cool because you're 420 feet and you're breathing helium everybody in there lost it I mean it was giggle city we just lost it because I said

oh that's cool you sound like Cartman down there. You're bringing back a lot of memories to me, man, because I memorized the Navy diving manual in 2010

because I wanted to be a Navy SEAL. And so I memorized the whole thing. I went to Bud's for a couple weeks. So you're just bringing back all sorts of memories to me about the Navy diving manual. Here so I memorized the whole thing. I went to Bud's for a couple weeks. So you're just bringing back all sorts of memories to me about the Navy diving manual. Here's my heartbreaker. Lieutenant Commander Richards was the commanding of second class diving salvage school. He's a SEAL. Two of my classmates were SEALs. After I graduate from second-class diving salvage school,

I went to Commander Richards and said, I want to go to Bud's. And he looked at me and he goes, why now? I said, because I want to go to Bud's. He said, they're not going to take you. I said, why? I could run the mile in less than a minute and a half. What are you doing? He said, if you'd applied for Bud's first, we would have put you through. But now you've cost

the Navy $280,000 in training to be a diver. Yeah, you were a good diver. They're not going to put you through, buds. Makes a lot of sense. And then after that happens, where do I go? Military law enforcement for the rest of my career. You know what I like doing all day? Being on my phone to do stuff.

Ordering food. Looking at stuff I shouldn't be looking at. You know what the scary part is? Those phone carriers, they collect your data. Verizon's even admitted to it. They say it's to understand my interests better, but really all they're trying to do is sell your interests to other advertisers.

But then you have like baller stories from that because you're like, oh yeah, here's where I took a round through here.

Here's a machete that hit my fucking hand. Wait, what? So you went from a diver to a masterete that hit my fucking hand. Wait, what? You went from a diver to a master at arms? No. Okay. Military law enforcement is a lot different. Armed forces, police. Gotcha. Yeah.

I'm a master at arms. I'm going to slap you in the back of the head if you look at me cross-eyed. Right. No, we don't do that. Yeah. So you did the actual cool stuff yeah so you were in guam guam and you're doing my last five years is in guam and then you were doing uh you said you were doing recoveries and then you were also doing machete story i'm still stuck on the machete yeah machete story he was'm still stuck on machete. Yeah, machete story. He was like, I'm driving.

He's like, look at this. I'm like, I'm driving, sir. See that car right there? Yeah. We went to arrest a serviceman. And when we got there, we arrested him. And then his wife came out with a machete. And you know the old thing where I'm gonna catch

this blade oh I caught the blade all right this way you called it yeah I caught it it's this finger and this thumb have total loss of feeling really yeah so and it if I do it right you'll see the very tip it'll quiver see that well so now that's interesting because that brings me back to gaming

how does that affect you for I guess your career now muscle memory that's it a lot of people don't believe because of the titanium plate in my neck. I don't know if you can see the scar right here. Right there on that line. Six inch titanium plate in my neck.

If I sit in a chair like right now, I have no feeling from the shoulders down to the fingertips in both arms because of the swelling around the cervical spine. What happened there? Was it just like, oh, just?

It was an injury I received when I was working for a communications company. Like, hey, fell or something like that. Actually, it was kind of funny. Let me tell you about the time I almost broke my neck and died. An office chair. And they had to fuse it by titanium. Okay. An office chair.

There was a lever in the front where if you push that lever, the chair goes like this. So I just come back from the bathroom, push myself up, and the chair went went boom, shot me under the desk. And then the back of the rest and my chin, see these teeth right here? Yeah. Caught me and ruptured three vertebrae or three discs in my neck. Wow. I hung there for about 30, 40 seconds until the lady next door came over and kicked the wall down where the chair was hooked onto and released me. You spend years diving without many injuries

and then you do the military police thing, but then the chair fucked you up. Yeah. Stop playing around in there. Just next to me. That's basically what it was. I couldn't talk because the chair

had me pinned like this. And all I could do was I could pound on the desk like this. She got up to see what was going on. And she just kicked out the little wall

and saved my butt. That's how I do be, though. That is how it do be, though. not gonna be diving or combat or machetes or anything if the chair gets you in the end dude i'll shout out one of my boys uh it's 50 tactical 50 tactical uh he uh he's uh like a former like i think sf guy i forget it's been years but he uh he only has one arm and so like you know the joke 50 50 tactical like i get it and plus he's like half white half black so it like works two ways he's like he's kind of he's a funny guy but uh he better be it it helps i'm sure but no he uh he only got he got that injury uh he did like a couple of tours

and things like that and like did like did the whole military gamut and then came home and lost the arm in an atv accident oh wow had an atv roll over him dude's always that's how like a lot of i mean clint our boy clint yeah that is what happened to him. Clint was... Trial? Yeah. Clint Trial. I was going to say Trauma Shay or Clint Trial. Which one of our buddies who lost limbs? Clint Trial is very up there in Special Forces stuff, like above that.

I don't know if we can talk about it, so I'm not saying what he did until I get okayed from him. He did some stuff. Yeah, he did really gangster shows alpha group you like he said yeah there's delta and there's a couple other little things he did some stuff so it was his like one of his last deployments and missions goes out humby drives explosion loses both his legs like one of his last final missions, like boom. That's the way it always works.

Yeah. And he, he was a war fighter for like 25 years. Yeah, Hobo had been doing war, war, like war, war for 25 years with nothing up to that point.

And then just bad luck bears. One day that happens. It's still like one of the kindest humans just positive outlook on life one of the nicest people you ever meet yeah we took him skydiving like a year ago and that was one of the cool things watching him jump with his team that he used to deploy with so you surprised him with him right yeah like he didn't know they were all going to be there so it was an actual really... And Clint had not went free fall since the accident. That's what he used to do.

That shows you how high of a level he was as halo diving. You're like, oh. So he got surprised with his team being there. He's like, hey, this is your first jump. The first jump back since the accident. Here's your team, and they're jumping with you. So it was a beautiful moment. It was all captured on camera.

Clint, you fucking ate shit when you landed, bro. Harder with no legs. Like you were like, fire and bye. And he's like, fuck this. Like he just yelled out. But he killed it, dude. And like the level of just his buddy supporting him it is a beautiful thing to watch that camaraderie you're like hell yeah and he was so he he actually

jumped he didn't tandem oh yeah he jumped jumped oh okay yeah i was thinking you were talking about tandem no homeboy like dude i was so pissed i remember we were doing the air tunnels and I look like a bag of shit in the air tunnel at this point. Cause free funks, not easy. It takes time to get control of your body. You think it's easy. It's,

it is not. And then Clint gets in there and he's like, Oh, okay. I was like, that's no fair. You don't got no legs. He's cheating.

He's just like floating around. Perfect. Fuck dude dude i get in there trying to control my body it's like i'm gonna die on my first free fall this is how this goes but uh he had it down to a science and then watching his him and his team do that it was one of the dope dopest moments i've seen in recent years you'll have to meet that dude also Clint Romashay sent me a video I haven't watched it yet I was like I'm going to wait for the boys because we were texting him

yeah I have no idea what he's going to say we might have to bleep this I don't know miss you too buddy you guys look like you're having a good time me and my second youngest kid just got done with golf practice so now it's time in the hot tub and relaxing with some vodka seltzers rocking the high noons

it's a tough life best job I ever had medal of honor recipient was that the guy? yeah that's not Clint Trial that's Clint Romeshay. Yeah, Clint Romeshay, the Medal of Honor recipient I told you about.

So he's the one that, what was his battle? What's his last name? Romeshay. Romeshay. He did the battle of, what's his book? God, I'm a shitty friend. Hold on. I know this also.

Talk about Romeshay. Book. Battle of? Red Platoon. Okay. talk about Rome, book, battle of Red Platoon. Okay. So Red Platoon is the, they got screwed, battle of Camdish.

It was when they were in a US government being US government. They're like, hey, we're going to put this base in a bowl. I've never read

The Art of War. Yes. I've never seen Star Wars Episode 3. I'm going to, I'm going to occupy the low ground. It's over, Afghanistan. I'm going to the high ground. Yeah, it's over.

It didn't work great. I know this. It's over, America. I have the high ground. Like, no. Jumps. So, yeah, they decided to put it in a bowl surrounded by mountains on every which way. Clint took, I think it was an RPG, rounds, called for fire on himself.

Like Homeboy was a goddamn warrior during the entire thing. And one of the kindest humans you will ever meet. Period. We're super excited to have that dude on. You know what makes me so happy right now? It's like GWAT meets Vietnam, and it's cool conversations. Dude, your conversations are insane to me. I'm like, bro, you're like, I got the Mark V helmet.

I had a tube going up to air. Even 30 feet. The best part is him shitting on 12 year old kids in battlefield. I don't care what she says. The best part of the story is the happiest ending. Just grandpa gaming. Like I was there when the magic was written. Let me show you how to actually play video games.

A lot of these kids who are going to be fighting world war three are currently getting shit on by the end of the year. Especially if you're sitting on Chinese kids in Battlefield, they're definitely going to be fighting World War III. Hey, you come China? No. I'm Korea?

No. And Russia? No. And Russia? No. Fought the Chinese once, didn't love it. Have you ever tried to break a bad habit and it just felt like you're climbing Mount Everest in flip-flops?

So when you got, what was it like, a first, was it always first in person shooters, your game style or were you like, hey I-in-person shooters, your game style? Or were you like, hey, I like to do RPGs, JRPGs? Actually, I play a lot of different games. Hunting games, zombie games.

But first-person shooters is where I excel. What are you playing right now, though? What's your game right now? 2042. You're really still? Yeah. Okay. That's your jam? Oh, yeah42. You're really still? Yeah. Okay. That's your jam? Oh, yeah.

Because that game sucked on release. You said it earlier. You were like, that game is trash. I told him, should I buy it now? If I'm playing it, you buy it. If I don't enjoy it, I won't play it. We all played it for like a week and gave up. Well, that's because of the release.

If you play it now, it's a totally different game. Really? Yeah, now it's actually, they refined it. Unfortunately. And for me, it's even worse. When I first started playing 2042, after the second time I played it, it was great.

I was getting kills from 1,400 meters up. Then I posted the viral video on how to zero your weapon in-game. Well, as being a recon in 2042, one of the few that excelled in it, do you realize how many sniper recon came out after that video? So you fucked it up for yourself in action? I fucked it up for myself big time. Because everywhere I looked, I saw a scope. Oh, look, he's over there.

In one of my videos, I got, oh, there's two snipers over there. Oh, there's four over here. Oh, there's six over there. And they're still shooting in the same spot I am. But you dropped those guys, didn't you? I did. I remember that clip. That's the one I seen, too.

You're like, there's two right there. You see the little glimmers? Gramps is like, exploding heads. I'm like, god damn. That man's a fucking hard ass. No wonder he likes Six Five Creed more. Jesus Christ.

Wait, there was a Medal of Honor? I don't play first-person shooters on console. Oh, they were so good. What's the Medal of Honor for PC? Medal of Honor and Medal of Honor Rising Sun were both fantastic. Oh, you're talking about the one that was the first one into like GWAT. Yeah. The GWAT one that was the first one into like GWAT.

Yeah, the GWAT one, right? That one was badass. The very first release of Medal of Honor, then after Medal of Honor was the first Call of Duty, World War II. World at War? World at War. Yeah. And then the best first person shooter ever, ever to be made was called Joint Operations. I've never even heard of that.

Yeah, Joint Operations. Was that a middle name? It lasted for two years. They shut down the servers because of the cheaters. The, let's see of the cheaters. Unknowncheaters.com? They were putting out every week the cheats to defeat the game, and the makers of Joint Operations said,

let's just shut down the servers because it's costing us more money to defeat it. This came out in 2004. Yeah. Is it? Oh, gee. That wasn't a Medal of Honor game there. No, out in 2004. Yeah. Is it? Oh, gee. That wasn't a Medal of Honor game there. No, it's just Joint Operation. It came on DVD. Oh, God, I remember that.

God, this is unlocking a memory for me. I remember finding that in a foreclosure from a fucking former military guy in Fort Bragg. I used to do real estate shit. I used to go through real estate foreclosures. That game was the best first-person shooter PvP game

in my mind to ever be released. And if they redid that today, you can say goodbye to PUBG 2042 and all the others. I'm going to go buy every copy on eBay real quick before this podcast gets released.

That's how good it was. It was that good. You have to not accidentally fuck yourself up. The ghillie suits that the recon wore, you couldn't see them. They'd be laying on the side of a hill. You couldn't see them. And the only time you could detect them

is if you were looking at him in binoculars and you know how the predator scene was? That's how those ghillie suits worked. That's gangster. We have, like, because we play

That's my favorite conversation I remember. It's like, hey, bro, what's up? I'm like, bro. What level am I in fucking hell there, dude? As he's just shitting on kids. I don't even know what level I am. I just know it's higher than yours. No, he's shitting on bugs for democracy and robots.

I'm, I think, like, level 98 in Fortnite. That's because I played Fortnite last night. Those are the ones I don't think any of us. And then my wife going, hey, you got to go to bed. You got a flight in the morning. Come on, not an hour. I want to sell. I need one more win. How long have you been streaming?

Because you do it full time, right? Yes. How long have you been streaming full time? I started streaming in May of 2015. Full time? Full time. What was your wife's understanding of what streaming even was and how hard of a conversation was that to explain to your wife my god i got wasps in my brain

yeah how did you bring it what do you say because you're uh you're in your 70s. Full time in 2015? 71. I'm 71. 71. So you're just like, okay. Just for the record, full time streaming in 2015 is a big, that's early. None of us did that. That's really early. You're almost on, not Twitch TV, that was on.

Almost Justin TV. Justin TV. You're probably one of the first people to be a full-time streamer at 2015. I don't think the audience could have guessed which one of us was the first full-time streamer. First full-time content creator. Yeah. Shit.

But getting back to what my wife says, I'm upstairs. Now don't laugh. I don't want to hear any laughs in the background there. Are you going to go down there? Play, play time. What's play time?

He said no laughs. What's play, play time? I see you, Dave. Going down to the computer. Play, play time. She goes, oh, you're going to go play, play time. I said, no, honey. I am an LLC now.

This is working work. I said, no, honey, I am an LLC now. This is fucking work! I'm working. Your first thing is, I'm a fucking LLC now. I'm a professional. This is a job, babe. And I think Dell flew us out to

New York to do the commercial for their Christmas in 2016. Wait, I'm sorry. You're doing commercials for Dell in 2016? Mm-hmm. Yeah. Jesus, dude. He beat us all to it, right? He's flexing on us at every possible angle.

I can't. Subtly, too. That's when she, baggage on board. Okay, this could be good. They flew us out there for two days, did a commercial, five-episode commercial. What did you do for the commercial? They were releasing their new 17-inch laptop for gaming. And I didn't get to keep it, but it was...

I did... What the fuck? Here's the bad thing. They made me an honorary member of one of the teams there. And they brought out a jersey. I didn't go home with that jersey.

Oh, they just handed everything and then took it back? Yeah. Oh, man. Dude, fuck Dell. That's shady as shit, bro. Well, they did. We were never getting a Dell sponsorship. Oh, yeah, like we fucking wanted one in the first place.

Just so they could give it to us and fucking take it back? Yeah, I did get a computer. An Alien Gear. Wear 51. Okay. It's right in six months. Oh, man. A round of applause for Dell.

Dell's just fucking killing it today. I just like, they're like, here's the jersey and this. Okay, thank you for the photo op. That's pretty shitty. Well, we had a good time. I mean, four-star restaurant, a nice hotel, the old Trump Tower. All right, Del, you're back on the table. One thing I want to touch base on is your miniature paintings.

Like, how intricate do you do on this stuff don't bring this up he's doing the Bismarck not the USS Iowa also I want to know your favorite moment of Nick's history

one of your favorite that's a really good one what's your favorite episode with the fat electrician oh man just to think about it that's pretty cool i've watched so many of them you're so proud of yourself i watched the one on the plane this morning. Ching Lee, USS Washington. Yeah. Did you make a particular joke during that episode?

No. Only on the live episodes. Okay, only on the live ones. Okay. Oh, those are dope. Oh, you did 40K too? Mm-hmm. Oh, my boy. Me and him would get up. Dude Oh, you do 40K, too? Mm-hmm. Oh, my boy.

Me and him would get... Dude, he's doing 40K. He paints miniatures. Yeah. All right. Yeah, we should have seen that coming, to be fair. Okay, I paint. I do scale modeling, too.

I've got a 1-200 Bismarck that I'm doing right now. Did you just moan or groan? The Bismarck? Yeah. And I also ordered the 1-200 scale hood. I think Nick has an ax to grind about the Bismarck. Although I do love the Sabaton song. You a big Sabaton fan?

Well, I'm more of a Johnny Horton fan for sake of his mind. What's wrong with Bismarck? I'm just sick of hearing about it. Ultimately, his biggest, best German battleship, but I give a history lesson. Built to lead the German war machine

and the Kriegsmarine. It led itself all the way to the bottom of the ocean. Yeah, it totally did. I don't know if it's the internet. There's three battleships that are the best battleships on the planet. There's the USS Iowa, the Iowa-class battleships. Oh, wow, I wonder why you have

a fucking bias, Nick. The USS Iowa is honestly the least impressive one. You have the USS Iowa, the USS New Jersey, which sank a fucking island during Vietnam. Didn't know that was possible, but it did it. Then you have the USS Missouri,

Mighty Mo, and then you have the USS Wisconsin, which is famous during the Korean War for the temper-temper incident when they just fucking deleted an artillery emplacement. Yeah, that's when the Washington was hit by a 155. And the captain said, make that battery disappear.

And in a full broadside, it was gone. They hit the Wisconsin, too. That's the one I'm talking about. Oh, sorry, you said Washington. Did I say Washington? Yeah, you said Washington. But it was Wisconsin. Yeah, it was Wisconsin. that's the one I'm talking about did I say Washington? but it was Wisconsin the USS Wisconsin went through World War II

never got hit and then they're cruising down the peninsula and a North Korean artillery emplacement is like I'm going to shoot at one of the biggest battleships ever made literally like shooting Cody with a fucking airsoft gun

expecting to kill him. Well, that sucked. I'm about to fuck you up. These fucking North Koreans. That's the power of propaganda. It splintered one fucking panel on the deck. One piece of wood got splintered, and the captain's like, uh-uh.

Fucking turn all nine guns aiming at that motherfucker fucking fire she fucking hit these poor north koreans with a fucking car dealership of ammunition just gone doesn't exist uh and they actually have a a picture of when she fired the broadside. All nine guns, boom. And the battery gone. And the hill it was on. Gone. That's the problem with fucking with the U.S. military is not only will we fucking kill you, we will document it.

We'll photograph it because it's fun. Don't touch the what? Don't touch the boats. Don't touch the boats. That's always my favorite thing. Every time. Because how many times have it led to a... Almost every major military

conflict the U.S. has ever been involved with has started by somebody fucking with our boats. They're like, let's poke this. Starting back to Barbary pirates fucked with America's boats. Guess what we don't have anymore? Barbary pirates. The U.S.S. Maine. Yeah, we don't have anymore? Barbary pirates. The USS Maine. You know, yeah, we got a history.

Fuck Spain. Well, it was something like that. So which one of yours, like, which one is your favorite story of, like, history time, Nick? Just when you're getting your history lessons, you're like, ah. I actually liked, and I saw

this on YouTube three nights ago, the night the U.S. fleet came down the channel at Iron Bottom Sound and the Kirishima was coming up. And it was night, and they just opened up. Stand aside, I'm coming through. This is Ching Lee. Fuck up everybody. It's fucking hilarious.

But that was the same night they lost the Atlanta. And the... They lost like three destroyers that night. They lost three destroyers, the Atlanta. South Dakota had electrical issues. We didn't lose it, but it was dead in the water. CA-50. I can see that.

She sank also. I did. CA-50. I can't. What is this? Hold on. This is just... The hell in the...

It was the hell in the... Yeah. Yeah, they lost the hell in the... You guys could do videos together. Just start bouncing old ideas. I was just like... Well, they shouldn't start a podcast and the rest of us are fucked.

Do you guys play World of Warships? I play a different game with ships. They sponsor my videos sometimes. Oh, they do? Yeah. I was going to say, I will play World of Warships if they decide to give me money. Yeah. When they sponsor me, I play them sometimes.

I also play War Thunder. What's the Hummer that we shot at the last range? World of Warships. Is that the ones who sponsored that? Yeah, the Hummer. Shit, never mind. Maybe I can play the game. We destroyed a, like, $90,000 or $110,000?

It was like a $110,000 Humvee H1. Yeah, that happened. Oh, yeah, you don't know. So this is, there's always something that's going to be, like, shot, blown apart. I went to demolition school in Maryland. Can I blow something up? Perhaps. Tomorrow, probably.

Yeah. I don't think you... I can see it now. Gramps with C4 in his hand. Uh-uh. I don't want to go there. Name a machine gun that you wish you were able to shoot ever. Any machine gun that ever existed.

The Thompson. Oh, yeah. we got that. Name another one. The Ma Deuce. It'll be there tomorrow. Name another one. This was last year. Perhaps we talked about this.

Yeah, we're not fucking with you right now. We're not fucking with you. That was the H1 that we just lit up. Now I know where my H1 went. Name another machine gun that you wish you could shoot. MG-42. We'll have one. Name another one.

All right, now I'm getting hard. He's revving to go. You can go back to World War II. You can get historical with it. Any gun you can think of. One, two, Vietnam, Korea, anything. How about the Russian 12.7? I've got one currently being rebuilt.

The Dishka? Yeah. Yeah. It technically could fire if we put it back together but it i wouldn't say the rebuild was sketchy man we know a guy that killed people with the diska yes we do actually he's gonna be on the podcast soon yep i'm excited for that it's gonna be a good one we have some i told you like you name gun. I would love to take them to my fucking factory. Oh, dude. It's going to be about 15 eight-foot-long picnic tables.

All machine guns from World War I to now. Every machine gun that you could pretty much imagine is going to be there. And all the ammo. The ammo is paid for. Vickers? What's up? Vickers? Yeah. Well, so I don't have a Vickers technically, but I've got a Maxim. So basically the same thing.

303, yeah. It's not 303. It was chambered in 7.62x54R because it was a finish-made one, but it's the same operating mechanism. Lewis gun. Yep. Yeah. I told you.

Brother, I told you. I tried to tell you you're going to get to shoot all these tomorrow. I was telling you on the phone. I was like, whatever he wants. P90. Yeah, we all have one, I think. MP5. Yeah, we all have one of those.

We have the... Don't you have the... You have the integrally suppressed one. The SD. I've got the P90, the MP5, and the MP5 SD. What else you got? I wanted my rifle to be the showcase. Oh, yeah.

It's going to look cute. But then it's going to sit next to everything there, and you're going to be like, fuck, dude. Legitimately, if there is something that you want to shoot specifically tomorrow, just let us know, and we'll bring it out. Because we've got a couple of the fan favorites that we're bringing out. Okay. We've got a couple of the fan favorites.

We always bring out. I'm all taking Bonnie out. And by the way, like some angels are getting their wings. Every gun you could want will probably be there tomorrow. You can shoot it. Yep. See,

She's a corpsman? That's how I met her. What? Like you were just both deployed to the same area, spent that game? I was at Naval Hospital, San Diego. I was stationed there with security, and we were doing mountain ops up at Julian.

And my carabiner snapped. I fell down, broke my left ankle. Didn't realize it because I had my combat boots on. And one more injury. And it's the office chair that fucked you up. Drove all the way back. Was in the shower. Looked down, and my ankle was about this big around.

So I said, okay. So I put a towel around me, walked downstairs, and I said, is there a corpsman in the house? Well, I'm at a naval hospital, and they're all corpsmen there. There's this good-looking little blonde in navy blues over here sitting down. And she turns around, and she goes, I'm a corpsman. Yeah, and she gave you Motrin and dry socks. I asked her to look at my ankle.

She came over and she goes, you need to go to the ER. She drove me up to the ER and we've never met apart since. No doubt. No, no. What was your first date, other than the ER? After I got out of the cast,

I took her to Luigi's, which is an Italian restaurant there in San Diego. Yeah. You're like, babe, come here, I got this. How long did you wait to propose? God, this is like, this is old school. I'm like, hey, hey.

That was 84. She went to school up in Oakland. I was transferred to Guam, and I called her on the phone. I said, hey, you going to marry me or what? A romantic man, I see. They say romance is dead. There was silence. Silence. And I said, are you going to marry me?

And she said, I have to go. And I called her a second time. You're persistent, too. And she says, I gotta go. I called her a third time. You're persistent, too. And she says, I got to go. It's double time. I called her a third time. She was waiting for the third time. She said, okay, yeah, after I get out of school. So she got out of school. I took leave.

What, you'd mail? 74. Yeah. This is the slowest game ever. But it took a long time to win. I bet. Yeah. It was not satisfying. That was my first

basically inner computer game. They mail you out where the sides would be and you mail your moves and mail them back two weeks later and you get the answers. That is like the smoke signal equivalent of turn by turn
