Guessing is for game shows, not your business, especially when your margin for error is zero.
Workday is the enterprise AI platform for HR, finance, and IT, with a deep understanding of your organization's context and guardrails.
So every AI action is permission aware, giving you accuracy 24-7, and the ability to not just get work done, but get it done right.
It's a new work day.
Oh, the connex filled with glocks?
Wait, what?
Oh, yeah, you should probably tell them.
We can cut some of this, right, guys?
Some people would call that defrauding the United States armed forces.
Right, right, come out with your hands up.
We got a fire truck for three G's.
How many glocks did you give him?
That shit head knows how to think outside the box.
If I think outside the box, I mean, do illegal activity and not get caught.
Eli, he's racially ambiguous.
Brandon.
His hair is fucking fabulous.
Don't I.
A dark joke.
disposition and there's a fat electrician. Welcome to unsubscribe.
Well, you want to kick things off?
Yeah, oh, yeah. Ready? Get that drink ready? On the counter three. One, two, three.
Hi, everyone. Welcome to the unsubscribe podcast. I'm joined today by Eli Double Tap.
Joe, just Joe. It's like Madonna or share. Rich, angry cops and myself, Brunut Bomperator.
Thank you for joining Unsubscribe. And I'm, oh, my shade, my beard.
I forgot the wig.
I was going to be Brandon,
Dark Brandon again.
Damn.
Dark Brandon is everyone's favorite.
Not Brandon's favorite.
Dark Brandon is a favorite.
Oh,
shucks, man.
I was,
dude,
I was like,
oh,
bullet dodged.
Settled on Trump.
I actually talked to Dick.
I was like,
oh,
I text you guys.
I was like,
hey,
podcast this.
Brandon was like,
oh shit,
okay,
can make it around this.
I'm like,
cool.
I was texting.
And then I thought,
I was like,
uh,
my,
maybe Brandon shouldn't be on one with Joe and Rich.
and Rich. I'm going to text
a fat electrician. He gets in a night. We can just
do it later one. But okay, okay.
Just ruining your career.
That was an option?
No, no it is an option.
He stepped up. I was like,
Joe, the list of things you wanted to talk
about.
Oh, that's a good list.
I do want to talk about
but the B. B.
But the Bs and the Bs.
What else were you talking about?
And I have a couple other things
You just catch a Brandon's face and horror with each one
Wait, hold on I forgot the final one
That was another one
That's a big one
Is it too late to leave?
No
You're good
Welcome
Stay for the fun
We could send you back to somewhere that could abuse you
Or you could just stay here with us
It's true
We wouldn't want to put you back in the hand of your abusers
No
My boys, oh we got
Well Joe you have to introduce yourself
You guys have known each other for
fucking ever
six months
I picked him up on the street
great
I can tell you though
listen
when you picked me up out of the gutter
I didn't know I'd be sitting at table
with real YouTubers
I like you guys
You're really cool
Thanks for giving me a ride dude
You're welcome
It was so dirty
I thought I was black
And I was doing a good thing
Turns out I'm just lifting another white man up
Geez
Trying to do the right thing
You can just put them back
You know what
It's really good working on some real talent here
Over here and over here
Nice to meet you guys
Pleasure to meet you brother
How'd you guys
You go back for, wait, actually, Rich was your NCO?
No.
No.
No.
It's opposite.
No, no, no, no.
Just because he talks louder.
That doesn't make him in charge.
Yeah.
No.
I don't think I was your boss ever, either.
No, you outranked me, though, but we were never in direct leadership roles.
I don't know.
Our second tour, when we tried to do scam and seizure.
We became the scam and seizure team.
I think you were my senior NCO.
I think you were my raider.
I was your raider.
What is scam and seizure?
Oh.
Logistics.
Joe, I'm so confused.
I'm military and I looked at Brando.
So the scamming seizure team is not a real team,
but there's always people that need to get things.
There's stuff laying around.
There's deficits.
People need stuff.
So this is the strategically transfer equipment to alternative locations.
Procurement team.
Got it.
Do you steal shit?
Yeah.
Well, we barter and trade the things that we stole
for things that we can, you know,
keep on or off the books.
Yeah, tomato felony, whatever.
The initial part might be,
frowned upon.
But the secondary trading is actually very beneficial for the people in the military, because you need things.
We need things.
And we reincorporate lost items into the supply chain for the benefit of others.
One of my favorite things is that I do brag about you, two, other people about, is the,
I guess the highlight reel of things that you were able to obtain in our first and second tours.
We can cut some of this, right, guys?
I don't know what's that.
No, no, this is your turn in the hot seat, brother.
Statue limitations.
Dear chief, dear boss.
I'm just imagining you're like rocket raccoon from Guardians of the Galaxy.
Just like, yeah, some guy's leg, you know, shit like that.
Yeah, just getting random things.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Do you want to. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. You should probably tell them.
About what?
Oh, the connex filled with glocks.
That's, that's, uh, wow.
Okay.
Yeah.
Wait, what?
So, oh, my God, dude.
Oh, yeah.
Which war is.
Brandon, now I know how you feel.
Oh, I, uh, f.
Six.
It doesn't really matter.
So we're there, right?
Like, no shit.
There we were, right?
Knee deep in sand dunes and all sorts of stuff.
Details not important.
Yeah, unimportant.
But I can tell you, though, the military does lose a ton of shit, like daily, weekly, annually.
I found a connex literally in the middle of the desert.
Just sitting there, just a box in the middle of the desert.
I'm like, there's no names on it.
Clip.
I'm going to double check what's in there.
1,100 Glock handguns.
1100 Glocks.
Well, these are Glockes, which are not your standard military.
No, they're just regular Glock 19s.
We were handing them out to the Army.
The Army had a program that were given Iraqi police officers and military police training, so we gave them Glockes.
They started selling the Glockes.
They started selling the bullets.
And the Army's like, yeah, we're not doing this.
And then not too long later, they came out with an article that they lost 12,000 Glockes.
One of story short, he still has 9,000 for sale, if you're interested.
They're on marketplace.
It's only legal.
Joe's Facebook.
No.
YouTube censored.
That was a joke.
That's an obvious joke.
There are no weapons for sale.
None.
This is,
it don't.
Probably not.
I don't know.
No.
Inflatable tube, man.
Joe's Glock.
It chose Glock and boring.
Because of horrible miscalculation,
I found way too many Glockes.
Tossing it around.
Come down to Joe's.
Do you know, I would,
oh my God,
I would love just,
I don't know.
I just thought about, like,
throwing Glax up and having it rain on you,
but then they're all like five pounds apiece.
Better than Sigs.
Yeah.
These are a lot.
Shot.
But yeah, you were able to get the conics with...
I turned them all in.
I did the right thing.
But if you...
Let's say hypothetically, you were to use them as trade.
Oh, let's talk about a story then that's fake.
Okay, let's talk about a hypothetical.
We love hypothetical.
If my in-head nuts, you'd be my uncle.
But kind of where we're at here is there's a lot of different things you can barter based on lack of all the things.
Thank you, sir.
It's for the shine.
That's how I know.
I think we've said it.
I'm going to eat one one time
when somebody stares
because they'll just
automatic.
They just watch and wait
for it to see what the host
do with them.
Oh yeah.
That would be great.
If we all just show the normal house,
they would guarantee,
I guarantee the person would be like,
oh yeah.
If you had somebody that wasn't like used to like the lights,
you know,
or didn't have like a background with like film.
Dude,
I didn't know.
It'd be like crazy.
What are they doing?
Is this like part of the baby eating thing
that Hollywood's a part of?
They would do it.
Adrino chrome.
These are filled with adreno chrome.
That's why Brandon looks so young.
It's the Bohemian Grove, Richard.
Oh, that is a thing.
So, Joe, hypothetically, a lot of different PSDs and colonel protections, they didn't have guns, but now they do.
And that was really cool.
People were thankful and they helped out other people.
That sounds good for the Army.
It is good for the Army.
It absolutely is.
We found unregistered don't exist weapons in the middle of desert and then turned them into legitimate purposes and things.
They had utility.
Was this on a base and it was just one of those contexts?
out in the random part of a base.
It was on the back end of a base.
That's what's crazy.
There was like no reason to be out here.
But I know that's the best place to look for things.
Like as a police officer,
if I was going to go look for shit in your house,
I'm going in your front door all the way to the back of the house
to the bottom of the closet,
and I'm going to look what's underneath the shoe rack.
I'm going to the furthest part away from your door.
Same with the, same with the military base.
I'm going to look for all the shit you want to hide.
Psychologically, it's easiest place to hide.
Far away from the entrance.
Nobody will find it.
Well, here we are.
1,100 Glax later.
Yeah, traded them.
I mean,
did the right thing with them.
Yeah. Yeah.
It's really, really big of you to turn those in.
It was super nice of me.
Did they give you a metal?
No, I didn't get a metal, but there was a colonel that got a silver star.
He did get air conditioning.
Well, I mean, technically, you did get metal.
You got like a heavy thing that we almost shipped home.
Oh, God.
There were talks of shipping home a Humvee.
I don't know how we got that Humvee
not related to the Glock's at all
So not only is the military
Possibly terrible
With equipment they're terrible with paperwork too
And they just
It just falls off paperwork and people are like
That's not mine
I'm like that's not yours
Is this yours?
Not yours? It's mine.
Dibbs take it
Then I just invent paperwork
And then get it taken care of it
But now it's ours
Well that's the story like with Cody
And of course the one time he's not here
Where he got lost by the Navy
And he's like yeah for like
I forget what it was
Like nine months to a year
He's like yeah my job was to like
like swim in San Diego to work out.
Yeah. Damn.
It's like, I'm nothing.
I was also transferred to what we call
Echo Company that doesn't exist as well.
So for a while in the military, I didn't exist.
When I got out, that's what I did in the last three months,
got back, went to formation.
They didn't call my name.
And they're like, if we didn't call your name, raise your hand.
I was like, not that stupid.
I'm not that dumb.
I ain't fault for that one.
I know.
And then I went to Beacon.
I was like, did they put me back with Beko?
I walked back and went, hey, was my name called?
And they like, nope.
I was like,
And then I checked in a week later
Asked the buddies. I was like anyone say my name yet? Like no no phone calls and I just started walking around with manila envelope
Oh that's so fast
Well you're still getting a paycheck though like the paycheck came on the first and 15th
Yeah because I had three months to get out
But there's no UIC right? Like you're not assigned to anybody exactly that's beautiful so then Sarah Major walks up and I'm with my buddy and he's like
Whatever why the f***er you here get inside quavis and he's like make make some do push us first and gets out recovered get inside
like, Corey, how you doing?
He's like, good, arm major.
He's like, okay.
He's like, well, see you later.
And he walks off.
I was like, and Weber comes back after he's like,
you're supposed to be in my platoon, you fucking can.
He's like, he just doesn't know.
He's like, what the fuck?
Some people would call that defrauding the United States armed forces.
I see it as a make good for the time off you never got after you got shot.
Yeah, see?
Oh.
Well, I just, I like the way you said that.
You know what?
It sounded way more pleasant and legal.
I'm learning from you.
Oh.
He is apologize.
Be careful.
You'll be great in Congress.
Joe, we found our in.
I'll be your consiglieri, you know, come in there, whisper in your air from time to time.
It will not surprise me if Joe ends up with the old Air Force one that Trump doesn't use anymore.
It's just like, Joe's like, Rich, I got a plane.
We've got to go now.
What do you mean?
I mean, yes, okay, let's go.
He's like, Brandon, do you're flying.
Bring seven parachutes in case it doesn't work out.
Seven?
Why seven?
Who are the other people?
Pete's coming.
I'll tell you on the fly.
Right. Don't ask any questions. Oh, man.
But yeah, you were able to find a Humvee that nobody had on their books, and you were like, oh, cool.
It belonged to an old SF unit. Eventually, I found out.
And I had this thing parked in the connex. I had the fold the mirrors in, back it in there.
I was talking to two different custom agents at the time because you can't inspect your own container.
And I'm like, hey, do you happen to need, oh, my God, look what I got.
And give them the items that they requested.
And they're like, yes, we're willing to do this.
And I'm like, fuck, man. I really don't want to go to jail for any of it.
It's only a Humvee.
So I didn't do it.
I chickened out at the last moment.
But recently, I purchased...
We would have been fine.
We could have been fine.
But recently, I purchased a 1990 AMG.
6.2-liter diesel Humvee.
You got an M-998 now.
It is not the one I shipped home.
It's probably like crazy.
$3,000.
No, $20,000.
Jesus.
For an old Humvee, they still cost that much?
It's only got 400 miles on it.
He got a 400-mile Humvee.
In fact, you told me,
He's like 400 miles, but when you actually rode it, it was like 60, wasn't it?
So I bought it with 126.
I put a couple hundred on in my small little town because cool, man.
So comfortable.
It comes with back pain and PTSD options.
They only, Brandon, have you ever rode in an actual?
Have you rode in an up armored?
You want the slowest vehicle.
You want a turtle.
You want a turtle.
Yeah.
Dude, it's a gunfire.
We're getting an ambush.
Go.
You can walk faster than that thing's going to accelerate you out of that gunfight.
Yeah, it'll do it.
It's one of those things where it was made modular to be able to accept the armor,
but not the logistical, like, be able to be a car with the armor.
It didn't operate that way at all, no.
65 is it struggles at 65.
It's a rocket ship at 65 miles an hour.
It starts to take off on the high end, yeah.
What's a rocket ship because you're not stopping it once you're going through 50 feet of dirt.
I've run over a few trees with those.
Oh, God.
I was just thinking, like, how do the brakes stop that much mass?
Not well.
They don't.
they don't that's why you constantly got to bring them into maintenance to change
and since it's right put out a leg like the fred flintstone just to try to help out
yeah
it's inappropriate oh god
grind it down like a pencil being sharpened yes
yeah yeah the humvees are fun and the one that i picked up was all redone the guy had it
previously registered at 12 miles that's it that's all it was ever on this it was a national
guard humvee i have to imagine
that the unit was shut down or disbanded or somehow.
It just never touched it.
Yeah, and just never touched it.
That's a title for this episode is we stole military equipment and got away with it.
Oh, yeah, they're and the thumbnail.
Yo, this we're all implicated.
Every E4 is like, and?
The word of the day is implicated.
You guys are now in.
It's you two with blackface and me and Brandon of the police officers on the thumbnail.
Good God.
You guys get to be the cops.
All right.
The Humvee's lights are out of the back.
Me and Brin.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't want to go to jail.
I'm going to request to see a draft of this thumbnail.
I don't know about this, guys.
Do you want to wear a ski mask?
A shi-stie?
A shi-stie?
Yeah, we're the shi-stie-wears.
We are the shi-stie.
We are the shi-steading.
You know why?
The Ridge Power Bank is nice.
Why?
Because it has two simple cords USBC and the iPad one.
iPhone, the old one.
The old one is a great way of putting that.
Boom.
That's two.
That's all you need.
So you can charge everything with just,
that one device. You charge anything that uses a USBC or an Apple Lightning cord.
Unless you're like me and you broke your phone and you're too lazy to get another one. So
you can't actually charge with either of these cords. What it does have is the conductive charging.
Show me how that works, Brandon. I would be glad to. You just charge this f***er up and it magnetizes
to the back of your phone. Magnets. With 20 watts of power, it charges your phone as fast as possible.
20 watts and 10,000 milliamps? Holy macaroni. Millie amp hours?
is what I meant to say? Wow. That's three whole full phone charges right there in your pocket.
With free shipping and a 99 day risk free trial. Plus a lifetime warranty. This is the last
power bank that you'll ever need. These things also look badass. Boom, show it, Brandon. I'm showing it.
Throw my wallet out of it. Available in Matt Olive, Base Camp Orange and Matt Black, a design that
screams, I didn't buy this at the airport. Also, they have the Ridge wallet. The Ridge Wallet. The Ridge Wallet.
you say this is the last wallet I'm ever gonna buy because he's gonna lose it and get stuck in
Vietnam one thing to pack five ways to power you can find the Ridge power bank at best buy or
our listeners can get 10% off if they go to ridge.com and use the code unsub at checkout just head
to ridge.com and use code unsub and you're all set after your purchase they're gonna ask
where you heard about them tell them unsub sends their regards tell um so do you guys work
together now as like the police force adjacent talents he worked for the city I work for the
tell them okay well and I that's one question I had is because you guys known each other in the
military and then in police work but your perspective and we even talked about yesterday of keeping
rich out of trouble or you worry about getting in trouble it happened in your car on the way to
go get tacos I know we're just we should do this like well that's kind of a crime no it's not
it's left on the side of the road we can see if we can delete this boat tell that tell brandon what
the go ahead I was going to steal a fat katie son
And what I wanted to do is I wanted to Joe...
That is a crime.
That's a crime.
It's still a crime.
It was zip tied to a fence.
I was telling him it's a crime.
Yeah, that's a crime.
Who owns the bridge?
Eli was half in.
That's public property.
Yeah.
So there's...
You're allowed to do that.
Within a certain amount of time to...
No, no, no, there you are.
Sure you are.
No, rich.
It's tied to public property.
So then I can tie things to flock cameras and not get arrested, that's what I'm hearing.
If it's political...
There are guidelines on political advertising.
Yeah, there's a lot of...
Just so you know,
a flock cameras aren't bulletproof.
It's crazy.
I would have thought that they would have put some certain...
You don't...
But no.
I need as a laser.
A couple hundred yards out, huh?
That's...
You burn the thing.
The lens.
I don't know.
That works, actually.
Yeah, that f*** up a...
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
That really will, yeah.
Yeah, they'll burn a fucking sensor instantly.
Instantly.
Yeah.
So you don't even have to touch it.
You can just go,
and they'll be like,
It looks fine. Why is it not working?
It's fuzzy. These things fog up all the time.
All they see is just Richard High, six feet away,
shining a fucking laser into the sensor.
Put my mouth open.
I just picture you popping in frame like all foot away.
You're like,
in from the camera directly.
You just see your hand.
You get back up.
You look to make sure it's in the right spot.
Go back down.
I'm just picturing it's you army.
crawling 400 yards
all in view of the camera
to get out of the view of the camera.
I wanted him to film it. I was like, yeah, I'll just
wear a shi-stee because no face, no case.
But I also wanted to do it kind of
comedically and have the big
switchblade that you guys have
and kachink, and then
that's how I cut the
things like, well, after election day, it's
first come first. Is it abandoned
property after that? I actually don't know.
That's a good question. I know. I've like
The last election I had to go personally, a couple of places around the county,
like cut him down and take them out.
Because at a certain point it is, I think you get fined for leaving them up.
You do get fined.
I do believe that's also a town ordinance as well.
So what you're saying is, is I'm doing a public service.
After the fact.
When I took, like, 10 India Walton for mayor's signs.
None of this is legal advice, by the way.
We took one thing.
Fight socialism.
What did you take?
God, are we actually admitting to crime?
No.
Joe, who is this?
Oh! Oh my God.
That's rich high.
Can we bring that on camera?
That is me.
We stole this from a local restaurant.
Holy shit.
Who did that?
I thought it was a Richard actual thing.
And then they're like, no, Eli, we just found this.
That's you, bro.
Yeah.
It's garage beer.
Garage beer.
Jason Kelsey's garage beer.
Jason Angry Cops, Kelsey.
That's right.
Yeah.
Richard Jason Cops Kelsey.
Dang.
The second.
That's a good.
Jesus Christ.
I thought,
I thought someone made this and then someone brought it.
Like as a joke,
as a prank, yeah.
Yeah,
and they're like,
we took this.
I'm like,
what?
I think the boys got hammered on election night
and stole that.
Yes.
If I recall.
Acquired it.
You mean?
These are strong words,
Brandon.
Well,
actually,
no,
I think we had permission.
Okay.
We had permission from the bar.
We definitely said it looked like rich.
Yeah.
Oh, my God.
You guys sent it to me, and then I think somebody AI'd Rich High or angry cops over Kelsey.
Oh, or the top?
And I was like, yeah, that does look like me with the beard.
I just shaved my beard off.
Literally, two days ago.
God, that looks like Rich.
That's crazy.
If I would have had it right now, I would have taken my shirt off and put a beanie on, and nobody would have known.
It's like the line shows.
It'll grow up back in a week.
It's like it says, this is two days.
You had to have that baby touch.
Yeah, had that baby touch.
Man.
Do Brandon, how are you doing?
You've been flammed right now with all your...
Yeah, I'm tired, brother.
No, no, I was just still bags under the eyes.
Oh.
Yeah, I'm doing like multiple events a day all over the district and then DC and flying
around just all over the place.
But it's good, though.
We're like the energy's high.
I'm doing as much as I can because at time of recording, we have 66 days left.
So we're just down pounding pavement, raising as much money as we possibly can,
talking to as many voters as we can, doing everything.
Is there a website that we can donate to your campaign?
In fact, it's Brandon Herrera for Congress.com.
Every donation of $5 actually enters you to win.
A fully automatic gift card, right?
Well, that one we did.
So we do see full auto.
It's a full auto gift cards are amazing, dude.
We did just finish the giveaway.
I gave away my own personal transferable Ruger AC556 machine gun.
Oh.
This family is on the brink of civil war.
On September 18th, Mobland.
The hit original series is back on.
on Paramount Plus.
We are the Harrogans.
Don't know the ant and Google us.
From the underworld of Guy Ritchie.
Do you want to step up the ladder?
I won't comment dead.
Starring Tom Hardy, Pierce Brosnan, and Helen Mirren.
Do I have to do everything myself?
You want to want?
I'll give you a mobland.
New season hits September 18th on Paramount Plus.
I do have a question for you, though.
Yes, I got an answer.
Force reset triggers here.
I want to take them home with me.
Can I buy one here and take it home?
You can do what you like.
No, no, no, no, no.
Oh, all of a sudden.
Now what's talking?
This guy comes up with you to do what you want.
What I'm telling you is that in the state of Texas and pretty much fucking everywhere that's not gay,
the FRTs are completely unregulated, just like every other trigger.
Like, it's treated like every other trigger.
It's a piece of a firearm.
The only piece of a firearm that is regulated by the 8.3.
ATF as the firearm itself.
In pistols is the frame, typically, and in rifles is like the lower or what is the receiver.
So, FRTs don't fall into that category.
It's just like buying any other trigger, like a race trigger or something like that.
Completely unregulated.
So they're not going to ask for your driver's license.
They're not going to ask for anything like that.
Oh, so it's like voting in New York.
Exactly.
Exactly like that.
Zing.
Oh, man.
Take that, Mon-Doney.
And wherever you want to take that is between you, God, and your gas card.
I want to be like Santa Claus.
I just want to show up in New York
with a fucking big sack of
FRTs. Yeah. Just handing them
out. I wonder how many we can pre-order
for like 50 bucks a pop.
35.
Oh my God, that should be a giveaway for us.
For our podcast, for the Overserved podcast.
I like indictments.
In New York?
FR.T.
I don't know.
Well, if you're not allowed to legally,
like if you're not allowed
to sell them in New York, actually.
It's a giveaway.
You can sell them in New York?
I'm not selling it.
Can you sell them in New York?
I can tell you as a blue
officer, I can have one, but I don't know
is that I can actually get one from my dealer.
You guys have a weird law. Like, even
you have the weirdest rules
because police officers have a
different set. It actually makes getting
firearms hard for you guys.
No, Rich. No, well, for you.
Oh, for me, yes. Because you're like, oh, we can't
hit that. Totally straight up. Forced reset triggers are
strictly illegal to possess, manufacturer, transport,
or sell in New York.
Oh, shit. Oh, geez, no.
What? What? Did you say?
Boats.
Boats.
We have so, we have the Great Lakes.
Yeah, we do.
The Great Lakes of America.
I'm not buying.
Oh, hold on.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
It's a fucking Class A misdemeanor.
Oh, that's not even a real crime.
Yeah.
Come on.
Well, I mean, it could be a real crime.
I've got charged with one of those.
That face right there, right?
The camera just needs to go.
You were like, hmm.
The second he said misdemeanor, that was that.
What Caleb call you?
Cheaky bastard
Yeah, now was the cheeky bastard
Now it's the cheeky bastard
Dude
Well, okay
All right, well, I'm getting two different things
From Google AI because it's shit
Yeah
This one is saying
Transporting or possessing a force reset trigger
In New York is a class E felony
carrying a prison sentence of one to four years
That's worse
Class E felony
Yeah, that's weird
But why?
What is the, I wonder what the case law is
Probably a huckle clause
Yeah, I'll have to look that up
Or a financial fine of $5,000.
That's an expensive trigger group.
Yeah, but then you're a convicted felon.
Yeah, no, I was going to say, I'd take the $5,000 over four years in fucking prison.
I don't know.
Could be fun.
J.D. Vance came out great.
I just fine.
Delay.
I was going to say, I'm learning new things about our vice president.
The Marines are basically a tour in a, you know, a penitentiary.
Are we not going to lie to ourselves here.
I mean, that's how you got, you're qualified.
Damn.
Brain is actually looking into a second way.
these rules.
No, no, it says a Class A misdemeanor again.
Okay, so.
Well, geez, now we have to just...
Well, no, that's in New York.
You can do everything right up into the border,
and then we just drop them in Pennsylvania and leave them there.
That's the whole plan.
Just drop them right at the border.
I need to buy land on the Pennsylvania border of New York.
Stat.
Boom.
Yeah.
And then everything's fine.
I can literally jump over the line like a little fairy.
You just need, like, one of those string zip lines.
Like, card shit back and forth.
Attached to my head of Pennsylvania.
It's a 250 mile long line around Manhattan.
Isn't there already a rollout?
You can work on Saturdays, in fact.
Wouldn't that be funny if that's how the Hasidic Jewish people in Manhattan,
get rid of their FARTs?
They're just like, we need to hide the weapons that are coming for us again.
It's just a big zip line with yarmulcas on it and dreidels or some shit.
I don't know.
I'm just talking out my ass right now.
A zip line with dradles would be pretty awesome.
Man, that's kind of cool.
I want to see you on a zip line with dradles, actually.
That would be fun.
Well, the dradles chasing me?
Yeah, probably.
Angry dradles.
Yeah, it'd be good.
Dradle, dradle, or digging at home.
I wanted with your stuff any more come from the, Brandon, I don't know if you know,
it's pretty cool.
It's 96 years, 93 years.
It's the first civilian to have a...
92.
92 years, the first civilian to buy a suppressor with no fingerprints, no red,
registration. Well, first one in 92 years to do it legally.
Legally, there we should have said. There's been a lot of civilians that have done it before.
But yeah, a lot of flashlights and oil traps sold, right? I've had a, yeah, the solvent traps.
They have a unique threading. Yeah, half by 28, typically. I have a story for you after all this,
but it was, it was great. There's really no update. I know that Rob Sicata, I believe that's how
I've been saying Cicada for a while. I feel bad. Rob, nothing personally.
sorry.
Rob Scott is the director of the ATF, and I talked with him recently.
And we had a good conversation.
What I can say is that he's probably the most pro-gun director we've ever had in charge
of that organization since it split off from the Treasury Department.
He's an awesome guy.
He's just trying to make sure they do the guidance right so gun owners don't get over.
So that like gun owners, FFLs, whatnot have CYA so that they're covered.
If, for example, we get a fucking Gavin Newsom or AOC president.
in two years and they don't they can't just go back and throw a bunch of law-abiding gun owners in jail
can you bring me if that happens just do it what's it take me out if that happens just don't even
ask questions just that's a rich responsibility i think yeah i'm not making the trips i gotta put them down
it's like a redneck honor right like putting you guys dog down yeah yeah put me down yeah look at the
flowers lennie i have an answer i have an answer for us so this is weird and very unorky you norkey
New Yorkie, possession of a rapid fire modification device, which would be an FRT.
Could be.
Class A misdemeanor.
However, and this is weird, right?
Having one, you possess it, misdemeanor.
Manufacturing, transporting, or disposal of one is a felony.
How the fuck is disposing?
You're getting rid of it, right?
Yeah.
So let's just say manufacturing transport.
So I'm a guy, I'm in my house, I've got an FRT.
That's cool.
I haven't made it.
I haven't transported it.
I've just, I bought it online and they shipped it to my house.
that's a misdemeanor.
But if you're driving down the road with it,
Valny.
You show a lot of angry intent driving like that.
I'll load it up with an FRT fancy.
How does those work?
It's like Seattle or Washington adopted that.
If I hand the gun to you,
even if I'm climbing over,
you're climbing over a fence
and I'm like, oh, hold my gun real quick.
I got to hop over.
Fucking felony.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I always like to kind of look at situations like that
with the what if and the guns.
Why is a police officer talking to you?
Why are we here right now?
because if I pulled you over for speeding, I'm not asking you about your gun.
But if I'm pulling you over and asking you about your gun, it's a gun day.
Like, we have an issue with the gun.
I've never thought about it that way.
You know what I mean?
But I was like, well, what if I'm doing this and that?
Like, that's fantastic.
But somehow you've attracted the attention of law enforcement in some obvious manner that a Karen civilian that's like,
oh, no, guns are bad.
And then they give you a call.
And now the cops are there asking you about your silver handgun with a black bottom.
You know what I mean?
What's the what's like a what's a I guess example of that?
I literally pulled a kid over one time for speeding.
He's like I got an AR on the back.
It's got two trigger locks.
Got a chamber flag and something.
I'm like yeah, that's cool dude.
You're doing 50 and a 35.
I don't give a shit.
How about your Friking AR?
That's not why I pulled you over.
However, I've gone to different domestics and he's like his guns in the back.
I'm like, well, okay, cool.
You did something done with your gun that somebody wants to point it out to me
and I have to go find it now.
So now it's a gun question, not a domestic question.
Well, that gets roped in too, but primary is going to now be the gun.
That's the thing that's going to harm me, right?
Not the stupid words coming out of the ignorant bastard across the room.
It's going to be that gun.
So we'll go get the gun, and then we'll deal with the other stuff.
So it turns into a gun day when you do stupid shit.
Because I hear that, yeah, like domestics are like the worst calls.
As far as domestics being like some of the worst calls for like things they can escalate.
Absolutely.
And the fun part about domestic.
No, none of this is fun.
But the crazy shit where we talk about like trauma and being experienced in these things,
you guys are fighting.
say you guys are dating, you guys look cute together.
I'm like, I really feel like this could work.
Who's the bear?
Rich is the bear, and you invited a third party.
So that's why the cops are here.
Because you invited somebody else in here.
You're mad, yeah.
You're very mad.
You're going to say.
We're rich into this relationship.
You got two bottoms, and here comes the top.
Not my first time in a love triangle.
Man, I hate Thursdays.
I was trying to talk about something to you.
No.
All right.
Me and me, me, liar, gay.
Yeah.
So you're not making Brandon happy.
Yeah, obviously you're not satisfied.
I'm here to fulfill.
I mean, I actually don't like this hypothetical because I boxed Ely.
He could beat the fuck out of me.
But not in the bedroom.
That's what sucks.
I can't beat them guts.
Oh.
Oh.
I'm doing the math on this.
Holy shit.
Dude, there's just so much with all that.
Somebody keep talking because my brain's trying to make the noises.
So we go into the noises.
To make the noises.
It's so wet.
I don't want to hear the noises.
Who's crying?
I don't want to hear the noises of two men.
I don't want to hear it.
Definitely has an Asian accent.
We're wrestling.
Oh, you're so big.
Oh, Brandon.
Number one, man, you my Congress of this area.
My district 23 is so...
Give me all your 22.
You know, all 27 districts on my butthole.
I want you to fill all the districts.
Oh, every district fit with Brandon.
The erection is an election.
Winno, oh.
Winno lose, still win?
Back to your hypothetical.
I have an election erection.
Can we unwind this?
I don't.
Oh, God.
We can try.
The pace has shifted.
Summer's loose schedule is gone.
Now it's earlier alarms.
Pack schedules and a third thing I forgot immediately after reading.
Some would say more on your plate.
You know, one thing that didn't change in my schedule?
AG1, because I would never sacrifice drinking this.
It's gonna help me sleep tonight.
It helps to maintain energy and you're going to bed with it?
On top of that, it helps you maintain your energy, your gut health,
and a bunch of other things like immune support.
It has pre-and probiotics?
It supports gut health?
Mmm.
Oh, that's actually fine, yeah.
It's superfoods and antioxidants.
I hate oxidants.
One scoop, eight ounces of water.
Bam!
The next gym formula delivers 75 plus ingredients.
That's so many ingredients.
That's got to be good.
Clinically shown to support gut health.
Within three months.
And because of the easy on-the-go packets,
it's pretty easy to fit into your daily routine.
Even while you're on the go.
It fits into my daily schedule easily
because I just drink it in the morning
and then right before I go to bed.

dot com slash and subscribe tell them on subsistina us then that's a threat drink ag one you know what
so after a fantastic date night an election processing votes whatever which way you guys want to smash
guts uh the police show up because rich is you know gone now and you guys are arguing
you're mad at him so mad that you call the police like i'm i'm gonna send you to jail brandon you're
mean okay cool well i come in i tell you it's not really a crime well as i go to arrest
brandon because now it's like say we have a mandatory arrest here because he broke something
Now you're mad at me because I'm taking away your boyfriend.
So you attack me.
Then he's mad at me.
So I got to wrestle with him and worry about you.
But you called me initially for help.
This shit is confusing.
So what did they want you to do?
Well,
that's the best part.
So I do like a little litmus test when I get in there.
Hey, blah, blah, blah, blah.
What's going on?
Oh, okay.
You're telling me, oh, I'm so scared and Brandon's so bad.
And he needs to leave the house.
And I'm like, well, Brandon can't leave.
Like, really a crime didn't happen.
Now, mind you, I haven't done a full investigation.
I don't understand what level of crime we may be.
be dealing with. I'm like, it would probably be better
you being the logical one. Now I'm telling them
and I touch them, I violate their personal space.
You're smart. You have a master's degree.
Whatever it is. You're a genius. You're beautiful.
He thinks I'm hot. Yeah, I do think
you're hot. So you take them
home. So I
What? Jesus. Somebody got
fired for that. Seriously? Oh,
well, we'll talk. We can tell you. You joke
about it? Any joke that we make here is probably
a real life situation somewhere.
We'll talk about that. We'll talk about that.
We'll talk about that joke after this.
That made-up story.
After these messages will be right back.
I imagine that made-up story has a news article affiliated with it.
It does.
It does.
And a hell of a dick pick.
Oh, fuck me.
Yeah.
It was nice working with everybody.
Guess what?
You can catch me at Overserved Joe on Instagram.
That's where I live now.
I just got fired.
Fuck me.
No, I didn't get fired.
So when we're doing the domestic, the litmus test is if I take the logical one that called the police on the bad guy, I'm like, hey, dude, it's probably better that you leave the home.
you have to go. It's safer for you to take the children and leave the home. That is the logical
decision. Get away from the problem. I can't do that. This is my house. My attorney said it's abandonment.
Oh, so this really now isn't about a crime. This is about manipulation of paperwork in like family
court and some other situation. So now I have to kind of dance delicately.
Because now you know immediately, oh, this has, this is playing. This is premeditated.
Somebody wants something. Yeah. Or if something does pop off or let's say he starts getting aggressive
because he thinks that you two are picking sides now.
Yep.
Now he tries to go arrest him.
He now knows,
Eli might jump me because he's not here to actually get Brandon arrested and kicked out of the house.
He just wants us to play mommy and daddy.
Settle down, kids.
All right, you're right.
You got to listen to him.
And then, unfortunately.
I told you I called cops.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So then.
9-1-1 family court.
Say what again?
911 family court sort of thing.
Dude, you'd be amazed at how that is, I've never heard of that.
That is dead on.
I just made it up.
That's very good.
Did you really?
Did you really?
No, you're welcome to steal it.
That's all yours.
It's acquired.
Note taken.
It's actually, there you go.
There he goes acquiring more shit.
That's actually really good for real.
Like, you could do that as a short form comedy.
It's just like,
I only want five percent.
Nine 11 family court.
911 family court.
Yep.
Boom.
This bitch.
All right, sir, I'm going to stop you right there.
You're in the wrong.
You've probably been drinking.
Bush lights, knew it.
They could smell it through the phone.
Go back to the bar, fall asleep in your car.
Are you wearing a tank top?
Is that white?
Is it stained?
Take the keys out of the ignition.
How many wheels in your house?
How many American flags do you have in your t-shirt?
Huh?
That's actually a weird thought too with the DUIs and shit in Buffalo.
Like in the winter, if somebody fell asleep in their car and just left it idling just for the heat.
Again, we have discretion.
The keys in the vehicle near the motor vehicle running is different than, hey, we just got a call.
A blue F-150 just ran through two telephone.
polls and is now parked in a living room midwinter right you were not napping he was cold you were
napping well before the accident like we have an issue there we're going to deal with that so discretion
definitely comes into play and there are things that we can do for ride home and everyone's like oh
it's definitely alcohol involved because the officer didn't whatever well i didn't do an investigation
so i don't know for sure and if i'm going to take away all your rights handcuff you and then
take you back to the station i have to be 100% correct if i haven't gone through all the steps to show
that you're either impaired or not impaired.
At the point when I first get there,
I don't know what's going on until I do the investigation.
So if at a certain point you're sleeping in a car
because it's cold, you're homeless,
am I arresting you for a DWI?
Are you just partying in the passenger seat
because that's the only place you have to party?
There's a lot of different considerations.
So whether or not you do the investigation
is up to you at that moment.
I have to look at the circumstances as a whole.
It's only fair that if you really want to drink a 40,
a fucking cold 45 in the passenger seat of your Toyota
in a parking lot where you,
shouldn't be, that's okay. You're still alive, right? Like, this is good? Do you want to go somewhere
warm? There's shelters we can take you to. I don't have enough gas to get there. Dude, there's
been people to show up with boots and gas money for some of these people. But they're good
human beings. They just wanted a colt 45. Yeah. You said malt liquor, right? You don't drink that?
I mean, I try not to. Try not to. Yeah. I just do it on occasions where I want to get rowdy.
So there's a lot of discretion involved with what we do. And, you know, the oversight on that is,
It's on us, man.
I have to answer for it.
I let the guy go and he gets into an accident.
That's on me.
That's the crazy stuff to me.
Like, I do not envy, and I've told Rich multiple times, just doing the drills aren't stuff
and knowing the social media and the attacks he'll get and then policing at the same
time and then, oh, look what he's done on social media and how they can warp that against
him or paint him as the bad guy.
Even in like the Buffalo school situation, it was immediately like, oh, well, there's
scop this. But I think you do. It just has a different name. You guys put yourselves out there
every day to tell the truth, right? Nobody really likes the truth. Truth comes with accountability and
ass pain. Well, when you do that, people are like, wang, wang, you hurt my emotions. Well,
fuck you, they're facts. I really don't care about your feelings. I do care about your feelings,
but yeah. It's a secondary priority. Correct. Yeah. I'm dealing with this factual situation that
needs to be solved logically. Your feelings can come in next. That's really neat that you interpreted
something from whatever, you know, your gut, you know. But when we deal with the facts,
when we move on, you guys are out here talking to truth.
Rich is a victim of this, and people just slander you sideways.
And then you're always defending yourself from behind.
Yeah, I get it.
Yeah.
Do you know a little about that?
Would you like to tell us?
Been told a time or two.
Time or two?
There's one thing.
I made this joke before I ran for office the first time.
I said, I cannot wait to find all these cool and new interesting facts about myself that I didn't know.
And I'll be damned.
And it is wild watching from, even from my side.
It's like, I know my friends.
I've been around them for almost a decade at this time.
So you know that he's a Nazi,
and you still hang out with him?
Exactly.
What?
What?
The 2026 Chevrolet Tracks is the stylish SUV for those on the move.
And with the standard Chevy safety assist package,
you have the backup to handle every turn with confidence.
The 26 tracks, start your build at Chevrolet.ca.
And that's what's crazy.
You get to see this.
You get to see on Reddit or the manipulation of storage.
I'm like, holy shit.
So this is what.
everyone's talking about.
My opponents, like openly now saying, like,
I'm running against a white supremacist,
and I'm just reading this on my couch.
Dude, you're like olive, not even close.
Yeah.
You've beautiful skin.
Yeah, like Brandon's been outside.
You're Mexican is right now.
Yeah, that's all from this morning.
I get brown quick.
Ice was eyeing them up on the corner.
Yeah, I got arrested today.
We're going to get them.
Where are you get them?
These people think that Brandon's just, like,
in the bathroom every morning,
bleaching his skin with a scrub brush,
like, get the brown.
brown off me. Get it off.
I don't like the way this looks.
I hate how I glisten in the sun.
It's crazy you get to see that. And then you get to see, especially you think you know how
like majority people are like, oh, the media, you have the side.
It's like, media doesn't manipulate anything. And then it's like, oh, maybe a little,
but they're not going to be that bad. They won't lie. And then you get to that point where
you're like, holy shit. Like, they will fucking, if they hate you, they're going to
to actively spend not thousands, millions of dollars.
Well, with media, I think it's two things specifically.
Like modern media when we're talking about like newspapers, which pretty much everything's
online now, like articles, things like that.
Reporting in 2026.
I think it's two things.
One, there is an innate leftist bias in most reported.
Like obviously you got like your right wing outlets, daily wire, Fox News, you know,
stuff like that.
It's not 100%.
But your standard, like, whatever your town newspaper is, likely it's going to
to lean left yeah right especially if it the bigger the city the more guaranteed it is uh but the
other thing that i think comes in a bigger part of this is the way that it's structured now
if you're talking about like internet grifters right oh they'll do anything for clicks
all of that applies to to reporting and in media now too absolutely does if they if they
run a headlines like man does absolutely nothing wrong like nobody's gonna
click on that but if they can find the most inflammatory way to put it uh they can they can they
They'll try to do whatever they can, and then the headline will always be sensationalized.
And then if they're a good reporter, at least attempt to add the nuance in the actual article that 85% of people don't fucking read.
All they're trying to do is get their click.
They're trying to get you to click so that it populates with ads and that shitty fucking Subaru commercial that plays before you can watch what you actually want to see.
And that's how they make their money.
That's how they pay the bills.
That's how they pay for their big building.
And so, like, that's what's wrong with modern reporting.
And you have, well, and you have to, you the viewer are part of the problem.
I don't think a lot of people take that into account.
Thank you for coming to my TED talk, by the way.
Sorry.
Well, when you're scrolling through, if you have two images that pop, it's like cop saves autistic child, cop beast of shit out of autistic child.
Almost 90% of people are going to go to.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Exactly.
Like, what was he wearing?
Good God.
You know?
Was he stimming, like, really aggressively?
Legitimately, though, that's what they found.
I fought writing for that.
Whoa.
You're going to gang science?
What are you doing?
You cast his spells, bro?
He's a crypt wizard.
He's a crypt wizard.
Well, sorry, I just got a text from one of my guys.
Like, hey, I'm coming by to grab some stuff from the shed.
If you shoot me, aim for the head.
Proper friend.
Brandon, known for dick shots.
He wants you to stick around and know what you did.
Oh, you didn't tell you.
Oh, big bowl, brother.
You're now dickless, yeah.
They teach us that in active shooter training, pelvic ball.
Really?
Oh, dude.
We call it pelvic girdle, but pelvic bowl too.
Yep.
Yeah.
I mean, you can't put a tourniquet on a tank.
Yo, I want to see the math behind that.
You put a quick lot on.
Oh, you could stump the shit out of quick.
Oh, wrong hole.
Could you imagine a hole?
Oh.
You're still bleeding out half time.
You're like, why does this guy get his fingers in my ass?
And why don't I...
Trying to figure this out.
Oh, no!
Oh, no!
Eli's over here fake and getting shot in the tank.
He's like...
In heaven, you're like, I'm gay now.
No, you're the opposite of gay.
That thing's sealed up forever.
Your, uh, your...
Coroner's just like, this is the most constipated corpse I've ever been handed.
St. Peace just like, this is weird.
You get up there, yeah.
Yeah, you just got to put in one of those, like,
hair polar routers.
You know that you get, like...
to like pull your wife's hair out of the drain.
You're just gonna stick it in there before the quick clot sets.
I just love the implication is that like you arrive in heaven
in whatever shape you were when you died.
So there's like dudes running around looking like the fucking, what, T-1,000
with like chunks gone, shit like that.
Oh, that's insane.
What happened?
You were in Iraq, son.
Sorry.
Who was?
Yeah.
You mean, I'm not anymore?
Thank God.
Funny, you can talk to them yourself.
I got home before everybody else.
Football is back.
And prize picks is bringing back their best offer yet.
New users who sign up will get $150 in their lineups if you win your first $5
lineup.
I don't know what that means.
And now, price picks is available nationwide.
No more restrictions.
Because everyone and everything is on prize picks.
Darnell, get over here.
You're going to be part of this ad.
He likes football.
And Sunday's a great day to bet on that.
Who are you betting on this weekend?
If you want to say he's actually really good at the football knowledge.
So what would you?
I mean, the easy one, Jemir Gibbs rushing touchdown.
Can't miss with that.
Take a look at his yards, do the over.
And you have an exciting game with Josh Allen and the bills against the Texans.
Should be a close one.
They also got DJ Moore out there.
So take a look and maybe take a look at his reception yards.
Other than that, it's going to be Nico Collins game.
I'm looking at at least five catches.
Yeah, me too.
I'm sure that made perfect sense to you.
Price Picks invented the injury reboot.
What's that mean?
You saw this last Wednesday, Seahawks, Patriots,
kickoffs to start this season and before the first drive is over, Sam Darnold, boom,
out for the whole game, out for a couple games.
Your Parley's dead, you losing money.
But with prize picks, you would have had the player injury guarantee that would have protected
you because he didn't finish the first half.
That would have saved you money on AJ Brown and Sam Darnold, meaning that money lost,
we money had.
Prize Picks also has an improved search functionality and live box scores to track your
picks without leaving the app.
The PrizePick app is better than ever.
today and use code unsub to get $150
instantly in lineups if you win
your first $5 lineup. Price picks, run the game.
All three of you guys were in Iraq, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, different experiences.
Yeah, we talked about a little bit.
Yeah, you are hardcore shenanigans.
You are medium shenanigans.
I just got roadside bombs.
Like, I didn't.
Yeah, it's more terrified, but those, like, I think
literally the other day we talked about that,
uh, the scariest thing to me was that IEDs when you're doing
checkpoints,
courage probably feels the same.
Because you don't know, it's just a vehicle
pulling up and you're like, search the vehicle.
Search the vehicle.
And you're like, oh, I don't want to.
200 meters away, I'd like to.
Yeah.
With binos, you're like, yep, we got them.
But it's walk through the vehicle.
Okay, you're good.
Thankfully, we rarely had to do the checkpits from 100 yards away.
You might want more.
Clear.
You might want more.
Clear, clear, clear.
Nobody's coming to the checkpoint anymore.
That's weird crazy.
This is down.
Man, this road is dead.
Literally corpses everywhere, burning in cars.
Nice job, private.
I saved America.
You sure did, bud.
Zero casualties in my gate in the last three months.
Ish. American.
19-year-old behind a Mark 19, just like thumping random taxi caps.
America!
We just, we just.
joke.
Real American heroes.
When we were overseas, there was a certain unit that had a
racisson for a symbol, and they were shooting sheep.
And as civil affairs, we had to answer that.
People were like, why are you killing my sheep?
I'm like, oh, it's 50 bucks, okay?
Like, really sorry about the target practice.
Here's your money.
They were pretty offended by it.
They're like, that's our food.
I'm like, eh, yeah, I don't fuck my food, but whatever.
Seasoning.
From the inside?
Oh, yeah, you do that to turkeys, too.
It's a turkey.
I don't fuck my turkeys, but yeah.
I was going to say, I'm not coming to your place for Thanksgiving.
It's moist and delectable.
Why is it so salty?
Fuck.
All right.
All right.
That's enough of banging chickens and turkeys.
Cabriot.
Joe does not make love to animals anymore.
But in true fashion, the military has gotten in trouble for shooting animals.
Right.
And it is generally Midwesterns that do it that are in the infantry.
That's completely tracks.
11 Bravo, 11 bang bang.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
adds up. Especially earlier in the war when there was a lot less paperwork. Oh, dude. Well, let's talk
about investigations. We've all probably been under the microscope at a certain point. 15-6.
Why did you shoot at that car? I was in fear for military property and life. Okay, have a nice day.
Take care. Whoa. In the beginning. Okay. And then around the end, it was a little different.
It was a little different. Dude, they would just drop off stuff. It's, guys went back on like 2010, and
they got when they got back from their one year to plan nine month
it was like how was it and like dude we got one gunfight we had to do paperwork
I was like what this crazy and like yeah people would drive with their headlights on
and like we had to tell them which way we shot I'm like because when search search it was pull
up they just throw 824s and everything and then one of our sayings was oh hey guys remember
84 is way more when they're loaded so that's how we would initiate ambushes it was like
which you never too like full auto or uh
Open Belt Machine Gun and AT-4s, you do not initiate ambushes with.
Great to start an ambush with a kishunk.
Yeah, exactly.
Why you don't?
But it would miss.
Doesn't matter.
It has a psychological effect either way.
And you're good.
But it's completely different times.
That's why even hearing...
Oh, but it's insane.
I'll be honest.
I was never on a mission where somebody did something unlawful across a board or even
in moral based on the, the, you know,
US side of things.
Good call.
Me too.
Wink?
No, no, no.
I was just kidding.
No.
No.
No.
Yeah.
Yeah, me either.
So if anybody comes out, okay, and says anything, it's the lie.
It's all a lie.
This is the internet and it's real, so it's a lie.
So, but yeah.
Can't be charged in criminal court now.
That is a smile.
Press X to doubt.
But yeah, so you would actually have to.
do paperwork, which is fucking, again.
Yeah.
It blows my mind. I had an infantry
ranger captain call me a cowboy
because I engaged a target with
logic and precision. I was like,
no, he's trying to... What's that?
What caliber of logic? Oh, just
556. What caliber of logic?
I love it. No, it's great. I love it. I'm going to
steal that. Thank you for that. What can't be
what you operating with? 22, get the
fuck out of here. I don't want to talk to you anymore.
We're done here. There
was a checkpoint. It was all cordoned off.
but there was a couple of cars that kept wanting to come past the cones.
You don't do that.
We've been there for over five years at this point.
You know the cones.
You don't go past the cones.
Everyone knows the cones.
This car made multiple attempts and I put three rounds into the engine.
That's it.
Three rounds into the engine.
No problem.
There's another.
So, Brandon, just so you know, like at 100 meters,
they do not get within 100 meters of a,
patrol of anything.
Yeah.
You do not fuck around with signs on the back of the humbies.
Written in Squiggle.
So they know.
Yeah.
Oh, that's a convoy.
Fucking vehicles are off of that convoy.
They're not going to risk anything.
You would think they wouldn't, but they do.
Whatever.
So I put three rounds into a Kia.
I've seen him drive.
Dude.
They drive that way here, too.
Any way they want.
I pull them over.
I was like, ah, inshallah.
I'm like, no, license, dude.
Driving in Amman was wild.
There's like no rules of the road there.
It's kind of, it was actually kind of fun.
It's a wild list.
I thought I was going to die, but it was fine.
It's like the outbats.
Steakhouse.
It's like Mad Max.
No rules, just right.
I'm just like, okay, bud, do whatever the fuck you want all the time then, I guess.
I guess.
Yeah.
Not my road.
So I engaged the vehicle.
No problem.
Vehicle drips fluid.
It's incapacitated.
I've done my job.
I killed zero humans.
No, no taking of life.
I'm like, no, not bad.
There was a truck to the left of me here.
Probably more like 10.30, not 11 o'clock, but it was over here.
It probably fired 1,500 rounds.
And they're like, he had a barrel in the back.
and like, you know, listen, asshole.
One, we didn't secure that part of the corridor on,
so a car just came in, and it's those little white and orange ones
on all the Iraqis driving.
I don't even know what I'm making a model it is.
Is it like a taxi?
Yeah.
But it had a 55-gallon drum,
but that's how they get their oil and fuel for the entire month.
They would only open up like a fuel station for a whole month.
So this is how they traveled around.
They would wait, dude.
Oh, my God.
I forgot about, you would have a line for gasoline.
Yeah.
I forgot about that.
You would have a fucking, like, three-hour weight of traffic just to go get a gas.
to fill up your drum of gasoline.
I forgot about that.
So they would do that.
And because we failed to secure that part of the cordon,
these dudes engaged with about 1,500 rounds.
It was at least 1,000, because it was like three minutes of shooting.
I'm like, just watching this happen.
I'm like, and just sheer all, like, should I be shooting too?
What are you shooting at?
And I'm just kind of looking like, okay, well, that's over.
So we go into this investigation.
It's a couple of E4s from the Midwest that our 11 Bravo that opened up.
They had a V bid.
I'm like, well, I mean, that's how they get their fuel.
being civil affairs, you get red up on it.
Like, hey, dude, this is what this looks like.
This is not that.
Infantry does not get rid up on that.
They did not give a shit.
Nope.
Yeah, they didn't get rid up on that.
I assure you, I never had that in any of my classes.
This is a transport fuel.
This is normal life right here.
This is not a bomb, yeah.
And that it detonates.
And you're like, oh, shit.
Hmm.
Yeah.
You're lucky this time.
Sneaky, sneaky.
Sneaky.
Yeah.
Yeah, nobody got in trouble and nobody died.
So we loosed a thousand rounds in Iraq.
Good God.
and I don't know where they went.
How did you guys meet?
What do you mean?
Oh, Grindr.
Grindr, yeah, mostly.
Back page.
Craigslist?
Front pages?
Front pages?
Yeah.
How did you guys meet more or less?
And how did you beat his guts up?
That's what I want to know.
Grindr.
Grindr.
That's the exact same joke.
It was actually something far gay or it was shot show.
Yeah.
Oh, okay.
Don't you wish you could just hit Skip on the worst parts of your life?
You know the same way you can skip an ad?
I get it.
I'm Siaya and I live in Ice Cove.
I've made some questionable decisions that didn't end up the way I planned.
And today I'm still figuring it out.
Somehow things usually get worse before they get better.
Apparently, that's how I roll.
So bundle up and come along for the bumpy ride.
Stream a new episode of North of North Tuesdays on CBC Gem.
You like guns? I love guns.
Was it the first time at Shoshaw?
I think it was that thing in Charlotte, actually.
That's what I think with that range.
The train shot thing.
Oh, that ride where like, you know, there were good people on both sides.
That's Charlottesville.
My bad.
Sorry.
Same place with Charlotte.
The internet says it's the same song.
God, that was a 2017.
It had to be.
Yeah, I think it was 17, 2017.
Yeah.
Shit.
That was a long time ago.
That was train flyers.
Yeah.
Good God.
I did Morgan on content at that time.
Yeah.
Don't do that much anymore.
Yeah.
You do.
Oh, you just had.
I dabble.
You do gun stuff?
A little.
Oh, that's cool.
How's your video doing?
Which one?
The one you just dropped.
The belt fed, like the FRT video?
No, didn't you do your Darwin's?
Oh, Darwin.
That comes out tomorrow.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
It came out on Pepperbox already.
I liked it.
I thought it was one of the best ones we've done.
It's fun.
Pepperbox gets the early release?
Yes, they do.
Wow.
And Pepperbox.
Dot TV.
There's a two week free trial.
I think it's two weeks, right?
Yes, 14 days.
14-day free trial.
Inside of now, watch Brandon's video because it's completely different than the YouTube cut.
Which means it's better.
Chunky.
It's chunky.
It's very chunky.
Yeah, there's a couple in that one.
What was the worst one?
The mortar one.
The guy who's hanging mortars doesn't remove his hand.
Well, he removes his hand.
He didn't remove his hand.
Nope.
I don't know.
I saw that one, yeah.
You know how you drop a mortar down a tube?
Yep.
And then, yeah, well, let's imagine that you didn't do the second half and just went.
Oh.
Magic.
Poof.
What was his reaction?
Oh, my hand's gone.
Put it all nice.
It was like thingies.
Fingies gone.
Yeah, it was mush.
You ever get like a paper towel wet and then fold it up and then try to take it apart?
Well, that's the one thing.
Mortar's having common, no matter what type it is, get the fuck out of the way of the front of it once the rounds hung.
when the people around him
when it happens are like
look at him like
yo
what did you do
horrible
that's the hole that rounds come out of
yeah
he stood there like just
where'd it go
surprise
just imagine that thought though
like the first thought you have
when something like that happens
a bad day guy was
you know I'll swear mentally
whatever the fuck
and then just looking down at your hand
just like
Like fingers are just a jumbled mess of the ones that are still there.
I've been shocked.
The U.S. Army, that's four hours of PowerPoint.
We've got to watch now.
This just got more boring.
Yeah, move your hands faster.
From the front of the...
His squad leader and platoon sergeant are just like...
Fuck.
So my understanding, they emphasize the shit out of that mortar.
Oh, yeah.
A lot.
Because of this, like, thank God for the internet for really teaching us some life lessons here.
I've never served as a like mortarman or anything and I can tell you it's I think all of us know it's like this and then like yeah we're out of the way yeah just like your hands should be out of the way by the time the mortar is released sort of thing yeah you're like clearing covering your ears or just want to feel it to make sure it came out well you the point of you going down is to is to one if it explodes in the tube you're like all right I'm kind of covering my head even though which is like old school thought it's just you're fucked either way it's more of get your hands away and so you're
so then you know where your hands are at.
I put them down, my head is down away from the tube,
and my hands are right by my head.
I can see my hands.
Guess what they're not?
Up here where the tube is.
That guy can see his hands too.
Yeah, all of them.
Yeah.
That's a hell of a police call.
Yeah, you're like driving down range road,
the mortars are going over you,
and all of a sudden, think, think, think, think, think.
There's a thumb and a ring, and you're just like, what is...
That's not good.
That's actually kind of what happened when I got blown up with a...
Give me a side, God.
Fingers come down.
Oh, what the fuck?
It's a wedding ring just lands.
Oh.
I should marry her.
I should marry that stripper.
Wait, bomb?
When I get hit with a car bomb, there's two guys in a car.
Thank you for your service.
You're welcome.
I don't have a purple heart from it.
But that's because, you know, you go to dozen bullets and people meet.
But they detonated.
They detonated.
And I got blown back in my turret.
And I fell down in the back of the turret.
And then I stood up and I scanned my sector.
And then I started looking around because I was seeing things like move like quickly out of my vision.
And I look over.
There's nothing there.
And then I'd scan my sector.
And there's pieces.
There's chunks of the dude that the two dudes that have blown themselves up falling around us.
They had a big hairy chunk.
It looked like a butt sheet.
You know like Arab dudes are super hairy butts?
It looked like a chunk of butt.
Chard butt cheek.
Why does he know that?
Well, the meat was kind of charred around the edges,
but it was still like brown skin and black hair.
And it was thick,
peaby hair, you know, like leg hair.
Could have been a beard?
No, no, no, no.
It was definitely.
That's a hot piece of ass.
That's a hot piece of ass.
The smell is barbecue.
It was wild.
I didn't, I don't remember the smell.
They did a lot of prop.
They put, they made the bomb wrong.
If it was, if it was a real car bomb,
I would probably be,
I might be here.
I'll probably be here.
I'd probably be more fucked up.
It was a real bomb.
It just wasn't a good one.
Correct.
They didn't have a lot of homemade explosives.
They had more propane in it.
The fireball was huge.
The fireball was like up and took.
They built a movie bomb.
Yeah, they basically built a movie bomb and charred themselves.
Yeah.
You caught a bomb by Michael Bay.
Michael Bay will love this.
Make sure you record it.
They'll hire us next time.
What was your recipe?
What a action?
Liz Flair.
Mikhail Al-Vib.

Do it. Yeah, I always just, uh, the one S-VEST guy he had ballbearing vest, clacked himself off.
aimed all the bar bearings into the back of the structure,
nodded up, so nothing happened.
Like zero.
Boom.
We looked around.
They're like, you guys go, like, hey.
I think I'm going on my beliefs.
He's not.
And then I was like, oh, it smells like barbecue.
It's all I remember from the burning hair.
Yeah.
Yeah, hair was the noise.
Did you hear a story about something?
Oh, that story, that random story that we heard about getting onto a military post
after having a night out.
Yeah.
And the MPs look at you and they're like, yeah, there's no way I'm doing.
the paperwork on this. Get the fuck out of here.
Literally told us to leave.
I told the people that I know that told me the story
that told us them to leave.
Shit, I'm getting confused here. There's a lot of people.
Speaking of which, the story we were talking about
earlier from the policing side.
Talking about picking up a chick.
Oh, dad, that's an after show.
No, that's probably not even on camera thing.
Really? Really? I thought that's public record.
It is a news story.
But you know... It hits close to home for him.
It hits close to home. We know the people
involved. You did it.
Whoa.
I have, no, God.
No one watches this show.
Nobody watches the show.
No.
That's nothing.
Come on.
Like I said, the photo is impressive.
That's not show.
It's most certainly, it's black.
It's not mine.
It's huge.
Not mine.
We also know.
So, like, there's like two different reasons it wasn't me.
It wasn't affected.
It's not his.
Yeah.
Jesus.
There could have been an after shot or before.
Shot?
I don't know.
There was a shot.
Yeah.
A couple of them, apparently.
But how did you?
guys meet, we still have not found that out.
Oh.
Oh.
Do we dance around that?
Yeah, no, we just kind of, we know, every time.
We just all said Grindr and moved on.
Yeah.
Yeah, well, that seems really set it.
The most reasonable answer is probably.
Oh, we did discuss it.
Okay.
Okay.
No, honestly, we met in the military.
Yeah.
2005-ish.
We were in the same unit.
But we didn't like...
What rank were you?
What rank was I in 2005?
You're a specialist.
I was a E4.
I was a PV2.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was in E4.
and we're on the range.
We're watching the Navy.
Some of these Navy guys can't really shoot
and they don't have a lot of experience with weapons.
And there was this
thick female,
not fat.
She was definitely fat,
but anyways.
I'm trying to be polite here.
She was shooting Tracer rounds
out of her air,
well, M4 at the time.
And she's like,
oh man, I didn't know we had laser guns.
I'm like, are you out of your fucking nine?
Oh, my God.
The Navy officer.
Oh, my God.
I forgot about we're shooting lasers.
We're trying to mobilize.
and we need the range.
Oh my God.
The Navy's up here.
Shooting tracer rounds.
Good God.
And she thought they were lasers, but here's Rich
playing the guitar.
Rich is playing a guitar on the range
in the military.
And I'm like, fuck, this.
Sergeant Major is going to kill this kid.
I'm going to fucking murder him.
Starvation's like, oh, he has a really good job,
then.
It's really good music.
You're really talented.
Who makes it?
Rich brought his guitar to the range.
Yeah.
I'm like, who would have?
And he was just so,
outside of regulations, and all of this shit.
And he's playing the guitar, and everyone's just having a good time.
And he's a really cool dude.
Rich is not dead.
He's a cool dude.
Rich is surviving through life with a charisma build.
Yeah.
Does such a major want me to date his daughter?
This is no shit.
I was going to say it.
He was a nice, Sergeant Major.
Davis, was a cool guy.
It was nice to me, at least.
I mean, I was a PV2, so I didn't know shit.
I just knew it was a Sergeant Major.
He was nice to me.
You brought a gun or a fucking guitar to arrange?
I knew that I was going to be bored over.
overseas because everybody was saying that, you know, they didn't have a single place to stay. Most of our guys were in OIF 1 and 2. And then we were coming over in 2006 to 7. So all of their stories were you're going to be bored on a base. Or you're going to be bored in a truck. And I was like, fuck it. I'll bring a guitar. I'll be the guitar. There's always a guy that has a guitar in combat. Fuck it. I'll be that guy. So I brought it. And I think I brought it to the range one day because I knew it was going to be a long day sitting on my ass. I'm going to qualify. The Navy's not. And I don't remember playing my guitar on.
the range, but I do remember the female naval officer being like, oh, my God, we got lasers.
And it became a motivational saying in the unit because, like, what was his name?
Austin Powers was in?
Fire the lasers.
So we would constantly belittal her in front of her and behind her rack and be like, fire
the lasers.
And also, you got fucking laser beams, man.
Like every time, there was an opportunity, like, freaking laser.
beams.
Just bullying the shit of some 18 year old girl from Kansas.
No, she's like a 26 year old master's degree.
Yeah.
She had some rank with this.
Okay, never mind.
I don't feel bad anymore.
Yeah, my college.
Oh,
2003 in the Navy.
Dude.
And we're armies.
So we're walking around and we're seeing all these Navy dudes with like little wings and
shit on their chest.
I'm like,
is that a colonel from way over there?
I salute a fucking.
Do I start saluting a petty anything?
Like what's going on here?
I don't have the Navy.
Get away from us.
You know what I mean?
Like, we didn't even know what to do with them.
So.
Not really after the Navy.
Thank you for your service.
I've forgotten all these fucking stories.
So we had Navy personnel attached to us, obviously.
Sure did.
And he's right.
They would, the ensign, or not the ensigns, but the E-1s in the Navy have like an upside down private rank, but there's a crow on top.
From a distance, I'm a fucking private.
It just looks like this dude's got a bird on his tits.
So I go, that's a colonel.
I fucking walk in my good afternoon, sir.
And before I can fucking correct myself, he's fucking laughing at me and salutes me back.
And I'm like, that dude's like fucking 19.
How was a colonel?
Oh, fuck, it's the Navy.
And I saluted an E1 in the Navy.
I saluted a guy that I outranked.
And an enlistedman.
Yeah.
Oh, geez.
They don't tell you about that with joint operations.
They don't really, I mean, you know the rank structure, but when you see it from a distance,
like, shit, I'm on a post right now.
And you're terrified as a private.
You're like, I can't fuck this up.
Oh, yeah.
Right?
You're going to dress down a colonel.
You're not going to salute them.
Nope.
Fuck it.
Privates get it.
Hey.
everybody gets one we also had a full bird colonel attached was his colonel bill i forget his last name
no no no no no no they're talking about the navy colonel the navy captain
audio ads that connect display ads that stand out run them together on spotify and unlock
incremental reach for your campaign wasn't mason no no no mason was our brigade colonel in the army
and he was in charge of our we had a brigade but in the prt their perpetual reconstruction team
had a Navy captain,
which is the same rank
as a full bird colonel in the Army.
This thing was Captain Bob
or something like that.
It doesn't matter.
And CA you just have a first name.
Either way.
We had colonels around
and one of them was in the Navy.
So yeah, I was confused.
I was a young man making mistakes.
Dude, you saluted nobody.
I did.
That's awesome.
It's not the first time.
No, it won't be the last time
and you're better to err on the side of caution
than not to salute a colonel.
Sometimes it's just fun to salute strangers.
Oh.
I knew that was coming, dude.
Just.
That's the one thing that our audience is really good at, by the way,
is knowing when to let a joke die.
Never.
Right there, it's right there.
The Socom patch?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Does Rich ever let anything go?
It was about to.
We discussed it.
It was like on the verge of dying.
Some Mark 19 rounds.
Vehicle's cool.
Clear.
Clear.
Oh, man.
Yeah, I was about to die.
And then I fucking, well, I zapped that shit with Frankenstein energy.
And that thing popped back to life.
And then we did the live tour.
Yeah, the forced valor tour.
Yes, it was.
Yeah.
Damn.
And we started something brand new.
And it's beautiful.
And we love it.
It is beautiful.
Something Brandon new.
Brandon new.
So then you guys met.
Okay.
So then you were just like, okay, who's fuckhead?
He's playing the guitar.
To be honest, and this is not gay.
Okay.
Well, maybe a little bit.
Okay.
Oh, hey.
Oh, that's a real touch.
I save it for the after show, fellas.
The bubbling of activity below the staple.
I'm looking at this kid.
I'm like, what is he doing?
He's just like breaking all the rules.
I was like, I love this.
I love it.
I love pushing to the edge of not, like, quite breaking all the rules, but maybe bypassing him a little bit.
And I'm watching him kind of break all the norms in the military.
I'm like, I really like this.
This guy is thinking outside the box.
He's doing different shit.
I'm like, breaking the rules is just, oh, it's outside the box.
Yeah.
That guy's a real.
The box is the list of rules.
And we're outside of them.
Especially with the military.
It is the most...
It's a very rigid box.
This guy won't let rules stop him.
I should call her.
I should call her.
Yeah, we were in the alpha company for a little bit together.
And then I got traded.
It was like a...
But in Gen.
I'm watching a bunch of lazy dudes running around,
not getting the job done, not being intuitive,
not problem solving, just.
just fucking existing in the military.
Just being nothing.
We're mobilizing.
We have a job to do.
The job is to come home, right?
And I'm watching Rich just kind of take care of business
and lead from the front.
I'm like, I'm a good kid.
I'm a good kid I want to associate with.
And being nine years his senior,
I'm like, yeah, I think I know what I'm talking about.
I've seen some shitheads.
This wasn't one of them.
And the fact that he could get...
In a good way.
A shithead in a good way.
He's a hard worker.
That shit head knows how to think outside the box.
If I think outside of the box,
I mean, break the rule.
And by breakthrough rules, I mean, do illegal activity and not get caught.
But here's the thing, though.
Every time...
I like this guy.
I like to cutter your chips, sailor.
So you're like toastic.
I don't know.
You went Stallone.
Okay.
Yeah.
You did rule.
Colonel.
This is how we did it in your old days.
But yeah, that was kind of it.
And then we started hanging out and we deployed.
And then, yeah, it's kind of where we're at now.
How did you, you're a police officer?
Like, how did that all work out?
Me being a police officer?
I told everybody else to be police officers.
I was like, guys, this is civil service.
We can double dip in our military time.
We can get credit for this and that.
We'll have two pensions.
Is one pension good?
Because some pensions are good.
More pensions are better.
We could, like, duplicate processes and not waste time.
So the military time that I already served and gave up all this for,
I can now, like, for a few thousand dollars,
buy all that back and apply it to my civil service career.
and the shit the stuff that we did i'm sorry i've been swearing a lot on your podcast oh no
what's your fucking language dude yeah thank you um i was like i was kind of looking at this
like we think outside the box and we're asked to do kind of like austere stuff like we have to
go sideways get into stuff and and create solutions for things that we've never been trained
to do there's no one specific scenario and you're like up this is how you handle it this is
the outcome and this is what's going on it doesn't happen
So in policing, it's kind of the same thing.
I'm like, wait, we get to double down on our time, and we get paid to do this.
And we're helping people.
Yeah.
We're helping people on their worst day, whether they like it or not.
I'm mitigating a response of something negative, and people don't get that.
You're having a bad day beating up Brandon's guts, right?
Even though you're having a domestic, we're going back to this.
I can't believe that you said that.
Such a disturbing image.
I can't believe that it happened.
It's a dangerous sentence to say in the day and age of AI.
Why would you say that?
How does you even?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, I just, as soon as it came out of Eli's mouth,
it was like that bit from Lord of the Rings
where the dude lets the arrow go.
It's like, well, we're looking here.
Yeah, we were mildly a victim of AI this morning, weren't we?
That's true.
A little bit.
It's very entertaining.
But anyways, back to the story,
the civil affairs role that we had in the military
plays very well into the policing role
in the civilian world.
If our civilian military operations in that country are to mitigate problems, well, we're just doing that in a different level with under a different set of rules.
Way less rules overseas, right? REO is like two things, three things.
Four and a little bit of paperwork here.
Micromanaged and everybody's got an opinion about my job.
That I did not expect.
I did not expect to be under the microscope 24-7 judged by everybody.
And then having to explain to my boss that, I don't know, I did the right thing.
I really helped him out.
You helped him out when, when you restrained his feet?
when you toss him into the patrol car?
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
I prevented him from killing somebody.
I prevented him from making his life worse.
I helped him.
Did you do that before the age of information,
to the degree it is?
Because when you first start,
and that's watching that transition into, like, the worst job.
You guys, like, police weren't frowned upon.
It was still, like, a noble job, more noble,
and then you got to see, like, 20, I say 2015,
it started getting worse and worse.
Yeah, when Michael Brown occurred,
it was like the 2018.
17 was that really like the kickoff of like the kickoff was hands up don't shoot michael brown it was this yeah
it was a solid pivotal point in which everybody was now just this is we hate cops we don't like cops
they're all doing bad michael brown seventh grade photo out there and you're like that that was that was the one
in missouri she's so many shit happened in missouri was it um i think it was missouri because i think
that was one i was there was like outside of what ferguson missouri yeah thank you because uh i was
there uh during the the riots because i was there
for something unrelated. It was in like St. Louis, and then we went through St. Charles and
like Ferguson's in between those, I think. Did you start the riots? No, I was just there for
part of it. This guy. Hey, look, I was, right? They got Patriot. Oh, yeah. Patriot back over here.
Hey, can you go over here and just hang out? And then maybe we'll put you in politics later.
There was a Patriot in front and went back to a show. Yes. And we're like, did you just call me a,
never mind. Yeah. So the, pause, we got another thing. Look, boom, Fabletics. I use Fabletics also because
it's super comfortable. And, uh, yeah, I go through, I sweat a lot during boxing because
we don't have AC because the boxing gym is an old school Mexican style. No AC just, so I need a lot of
clothes. I like a high quality feel without spending a whole bunch of money. I'm sure that I speak
for a lot of people with that. That's where Fabletics knocks it out of the park. Now, a lot of the
times if you are spending less money on something, it usually means it's going to fall apart fast.
Not the case.
And even if you are not looking for gym attire, they have everything else.
You can get some nice t-shirts.
Or perhaps a nice pair of shorts that are comfortable and stretchy.
Oh, seriously, you wear clothes like 98% of your life.
Make sure they're comfortable.
It's no different than a bed.
And also, they're dropping new styles each and every month.

The, but no, while I was there, it was funny because there was some, uh, there was some
guys that like had just gotten back from, uh, from like Iraq and shit like that, Iraq,
Afghanistan.
And one of them had said that his body was there doing like pulling security on top of
the building.
He's like, bro out here.
Like it, it reminds me like, it's, it reminds me of fucking Iraq.
He told me, he's like, dude, it's like, come the fuck on.
He's like, no way, no way or whatever.
He's like, I did, I did security on a rooftop one night.
It was like fucking Iraq.
Damn.
In the United States.
That's wild.
Yeah.
What was the big one after that?
Because I thought there was one between that and George Floyd.
George Floyd.
Oh, there's a couple in between them and they've tried to turn them into things.
The big ones that I remember are the one that wasn't even police related.
It was the kid in Florida and the security guy that shot him.
Trevi Barron.
Oh, yeah.
George Zimmerman.
Oh, yeah.
Then you had Michael Brown.
Yeah.
Well, yeah, Brianna Taylor was post George Floyd, too.
mistaken. Oh, that was the paramedic on the warrant.
That was one of my favorite bits
of like modern sensational politics
just being fucking retarded. Stupid.
Is that you had
all those people that gathered around that restaurant
that were harassing the shit out
of Senator Rand Paul and his wife.
Yeah. You, you, Republicans,
you dis, say her name, say her name.
For context,
Senator Rand Paul
at this point had sponsored
and actually, I think he authored a bill
called the Brianna Taylor Act.
Yeah.
He was the guy.
And they were trying to fucking harass him.
Say her name.
He's like, I'm the guy pushing it.
Retard.
That's insane quiet like that.
No, he was pushing his security.
He was like, they don't know that I'm the one that's doing the thing.
Which is wild.
Yeah, so there was Brianna Taylor or well, that was before.
That was like a no knock that had like that was the wrong address.
No.
No, it was a right address.
It's just she was defending him and like somehow stood in front.
He was in like the back back.
Oh, so I don't know the story.
They shot through a wall, I thought.
I don't know the story then.
Jesus Christ, I'm going to paint you a picture of exactly what occurred.
Brianna Taylor's boyfriend, the one that was in the warrant that shot at police officers,
was a warrant for him.
So the officers went to go execute the warrant for that guy, right?
Brianna was there.
That guy is a drug dealer.
He's a bad dude, right?
Brianna is aware that he's a drug dealer and a bad dude because that's how he gets his money.
He's doing it for a long time.
Brianna was on the warrant.
Hey, if this person, the target and Brianna Taylor, secondary target, are part of the warrant for search and seizure, right?
So they enter the premises.
Boyfriend is a psycho opens up with an AK on the coppers and shoot them through the wall.
And then they open fire and shoot it through the door.
One of the doors, I think it was the bedroom door.
They're screaming like police, right?
So they blind fired back in the direction they were getting around.
Yeah, they're getting shot through the door.
and they ended up shooting Brianna and the guy.
And I think the guy lived.
I think so.
Yeah.
But anyway, the big narrative is they did a no-knock warrant.
This is the difference between a knock-warrant and a no-knock warrant.
And I'm not exaggerating.
Police, open the door, warrant.
You ready for this?
Well, that's a knock warrant.
Ready for this?
Boom!
Police search warrant!
That boom was me kicking the door open.
Yep.
Immediately upon entrance into a domicile, you scream and echo, everybody does in the staff.
police search warrant, police search warrant.
It's not just one guy.
It's like every single do that goes in.
Right, it's not somebody sneaking into your house.
Yeah.
So like a no knock warrant, which is where I disagree with Rand Paul, is not like this horrible breach of your Fourth Amendment rights.
It's the intent of a no knock warrant is to get into the property quickly without raising suspicion.
I think, well, a lot of, I think, where the issue is on no knock warrants is that not that it's a tool that shouldn't be in the arsenal necessarily.
but that it might be overused.
I think that's where they have concern.
Or it's the slip-ups, like, I know that the streamer that just got swatted?
Swatted.
Cody?
Yeah, right?
Well, it was a no-knock open, and he had already called the police a day or two before.
And he's like, hey, I, like, I'm already getting threats of being swatted on my stream.
We still have to show up.
But it turned into you like, okay, okay, we're making a note.
then two days later it happens
they do a no-knock kick it open he doesn't know
it's in the middle of night like midnight
he just grabs a gun and then they shoot
and he gets shot a few times paralyzed
from the waist down when the fuck did this
happened literally a few weeks ago
I think I saw that one now yeah
that's one of those things where it's like
dude I fucking put that person who swatted him up
on trial and fucking execute them I mean that's my
whole thing is like I'm wanting to put forward
legislation that because I feel like we need
two things for one
we need federal allocation of resources through the FBI
because there's a lot of small town departments
or just departments that aren't
the people at the helm don't know what the fuck they're doing
so you talk about swatting they're like I don't know
fuck it we just sent it up the chain we don't know
putting federal resources and defining these people
and prosecuting them as a the second part federal crime
it's a federal crime with federal time
because it's a tiny murder
well most of the time it's like somebody from like
I don't know California swatting somebody in Texas right
it's already going across state lines why not make it a federal
offense. Exactly. I'm very smart. Exactly my point.
Oh. Yeah. That's
because it really should be a federal
crime and it should come with the maximum
sentence for attempted
murder because that's what you try to do. Not only, it's
actually, in my opinion, I think it's worse than attempted
murder because attempted murder
you tried to kill somebody.
You had the nuts said to go to do something.
In this case, not only are you trying
to kill somebody, you know, you're sending 20
fucking armed guys to their house under false pretenses
to where they might be shot. And that's attempted murder.
But now you're putting
20 law enforcement lives on the line as well,
guys who are just doing their job responding to something
that they think is a real threat.
And so now, like, there's multiple people
that you're putting in harm's way
because you want to be a dickhead on the internet.
Yep, kill him.
This is the article right here.
Yeah, so it was a month ago.
But they can't just call a swat on you.
That's not how it works.
Yeah, that's the dispatcher was giving that.
So he's like, hey, yeah.
So he was trying, he was proactive.
He's like, hey, just so you know, this is what's happening.
annotate this. So he did the right thing.
But like, you can't go and call 911
and talk to dispatcher. You can't just go
talk to dispatcher. You've got to go
to the police department. You've got to call
the police department and talk to an
officer, a detective, a shift supervisor.
Yeah. A chief of police.
Yeah. Like, can you put it
on my file? And it further, like,
with the federal funds and as far as small...
Like, you'd never seen a cell phone. What is...
Well, he handed it to me.
And it was this. Hold on.
You saw policing in real time
there. He handed me this phone and I go,
whose phone is this? Oh, there's a
flip on the bottom. Brandon's flip is up top.
This is not Brandon's phone. Let me turn
around to give it to Eli. It must be Eli's phone.
It's called a thought process.
Right before you treated it like a phaser.
Yeah, I did.
Oh, yeah.
See, this is great. This is how this is how it's work.
We just play telephone and f***er.
Oh, police work. I know which one of my friends has that phone.
Detective, conveniently lost it.
I love you.
You know, voter fries.
serious offense in District 23.
And I'll have to you now that there might be several hundred dozen people voting for not
Brandon Herrera.
Or it's going to be amazing when the right-in candidate Brendan Herrera's tiny penis wins.
That's, you know, it's actually funny you say that because right after I lost my first
election with Tony, we had, I think it was a couple months after, Frio County, one of our
counties, I think had a shitload of election officials that was arrested right out.
after four election fraud.
Really?
It's happening.
It's just not advertised.
I think it was like 12 people.
It was like 12 elected or election officials.
There was one county.
Maybe it was the same one.
It was small.
You had zero votes and Tony had like a thousand.
And we're like that's statistical impossibility.
There was a couple instances.
I think it was that county.
That's what I'm saying.
Yeah.
And it was like, hmm.
Oh wait.
Brandon's got three now.
I suppose.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, that one was like, oh, we're having power outages.
I'm like, and I see all this is right on both counts, right?
Like, cops are responding to, like, a real call.
Yeah.
And then I think someone's breaking in my house.
I'm going to defend myself.
Oh.
Oh, I wasn't sure we're going.
Oh, can you scoot that way?
Just as much as I can never tell us.
There you go.
Yeah.
You'll be sitting there now.
Yeah.
I recognize that you have that.
But it's, you read that and you're like, dang, that's a hard situation.
Yeah, we're reading this with the swatting call.
Yeah.
And when you just read just the two lines, the police respond to a swatting call,
Mendez, right?
Is it Menendez?
Yeah.
Not Menendez.
Jesus.
The brothers?
Two different guys.
Anyways.
Melinda.
He responds going, oh, I think somebody's breaking into my house, which is reasonable if you're
breaking my window in the middle of the night with a shovel.
Both sides are right.
Yeah.
In that moment, in their own heads.
And that's where the person with the swatting, whoever initiated that, needs to go to
jail.
I love accountability.
I'm sick that we ran away from it and then we don't address it anymore.
You were talking about small town policing or different towns and training.
Yeah.
There's a lot of towns that have good training, but it's lagging.
It is so far behind.
We have to call the Secret Service and go.
hey, can you check out credit cards?
But still, I mean,
in 2026, there's so many cops
who don't know what a fucking swatting is.
Yeah.
They were never trained, never told, seriously.
But you know what's also interesting?
If we, and this is where standards come in,
we hire people that have been in the military
that have been through something,
that go to be a police officer,
that have life experiences,
we're going to a swatting, blah, blah, blah.
I was like, okay, all right, cool.
I'm super excited, but I'm not mad at anybody.
My heart rate's not up.
We have to go there
and we have to handle this highly emotional situation,
So control our own emotions, respond logically and tactically to a situation.
We're not putting a swat response, but not a swatting.
Not exactly a swat response.
Like I don't want to go in with a bear cat and, you know, brush a beam through the window, throw a phone in there and try to talk to somebody.
What I mean is like not knowingly, like not it's not a swatting.
Correct.
Like, okay, got it.
We're not flashbang in the house.
Like we have to respond and go, wait, this doesn't happen in our town.
We get 45,000 calls a year.
We've never had 14 dudes with an AK in a living room.
Like, that's just not real.
That's not happening.
We know our people in a small town.
You and I had our own fake police incident.
The one you called me up about it.
I don't know if you can talk about it.
Oh, yeah.
Can we keep it vague?
Yeah, let's keep it vague.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I had a, what I thought was a very actionable threat against a school.
And, you know, that's stuff that, you know, I take seriously because there's people that will talk shit and do all sorts of dumb stuff and like whatever's the internet.
I had one that, like, really, like, put up the alarm bells.
and then clicked on the profile
and it was from Buffalo, New York.
Yep.
And like it had it in the profile.
I was like, hmm.
So we reported it to the feds
and then we reported it to,
well, I texted or I called Rich.
I'm like, hey man, this was like last week.
Yeah.
I'm like, oh, what the fuck?
Wish I had something better to talk to you about.
But unfortunately, I kind of want to bring this to your attention
because it's your town.
And now somebody that was like putting out
what, it was like a manifesto
with an actionable threat.
of like harming innocent life.
No shit.
And so it was to the point where I'm like,
this doesn't seem like internet bullshit, whatever.
And then your guys came back and said.
Yeah, so funny, even before that,
we're talking on the phone.
I was going to go in the shower.
So the entire time,
Brandon's on speakerphone
and I'm completely naked in my bathroom.
Just like walking around.
This is why you always start out of phone call
asking what they're wearing.
Yeah, it's true.
It's not a creepy thing.
You just want to make sure that you're not,
I am not a pervert on the other line.
Are you wearing a wire, prove it.
Which I am.
Why aren't you FaceTime?
So I'm walking around.
I'm walking around
and that's what I want to know.
Dude,
a really super serious conversation.
Nice dick.
Yeah, if only it was FaceTime.
I was ready.
I'm showering.
I know you're there.
I know you're there.
I know you're there.
There's heavy breathing on your line.
I know you're there is dialing.
Apollical.
Rich's ended call.
Yeah, I'm walking around dude in the bathroom.
He's just like, hey, kind of serious.
This, I go, send me what you've got.
Let me look at it.
Because not to shit on you, but like there's oftentimes where people get excited about
things that they think are big events that the police need to know about.
And for those of us experience in that field, you know, we can kind of see where the red
flags are for like false claims.
You're gonna be like, okay, this is a big deal for you
because you're not used to this.
This is a lesser of a deal.
But the things that he sent me were legitimate.
And so-
Okay, I was wondering because were there things in it
that like kind of tipped you off like,
yeah, we should probably handle this
or this is obviously fake?
One of the things that tip me off
that it might be fake was that I'm going to do this
several months from now instead of immediate.
If you've got a plan to do something,
especially if it's like a significant action
that this person was claiming they were going to do.
You're not going to walk away from sort of thing.
You're not going to give people months to get ready for it.
It's going to be, this is it.
It's happening now.
Goodbye.
Here was my counter to that in my mind, because I thought about that too.
It was buried in a video that I did like four years ago.
Yeah.
And I was like, hmm, I wonder if they're just leaving like a paper trail there, like in something that is no longer.
Later, after the fact.
Possible.
Yeah.
And either way, like there weren't enough red of license thing where I was like, Brandon, what an idiot, you know?
And so I looked at it and I go, all right, the thing that he's waiting for this thing to happen that he's planning is going to be like in a couple months.
I'm like, all right, that's weird that usually doesn't happen, but there's enough information going on here where this is, this should be taken as the next threat.
And also just it's not that hard to do your job as a cop and call somebody whose specific job is to look into those things.
And the pros of cons of doing nothing.
Yeah, absolutely.
Let me just do nothing and see if it figured, oh, God, that's just a problem in policing.
He was on our radar.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, thanks.
That DNA thing, that just, that DNA case that's happening right now with the lady who would just not do shit.
She just wanted to submit DNA.
Oh, yeah, I saw that.
And she got, so like, yeah, I'm guilty.
Been doing it for 30 years.
And this is like people went to prison.
It's a whole last thing.
And they're like five years or something stupid.
Or the dispatcher that was just hanging up on people.
Oh, the 911?
Yeah.
That's terrible.
I didn't feel like that.
It was too much.
But anyway, sir.
Our thing, I called our, I called a significant person in the Buffalo Police Department
that's high ranking well above me.
And I said, have an issue.
This is what it is.
And that person gave me some guidance, which I was going to do also.
But it's kind of like, simultaneously I'm going to let one of the big heads of the department
know.
And I'm also going to let this other unit know.
He was like a threat management unit.
And so I gave them all the information.
They were like, yeah, actually not the first time that they've gotten information from that
account. That account has posted it several times and it's a Russian account. It's from Russia.
It says it says like, hey, I'm located here. I didn't know that that's the, that was not the
first time they got it from that account. That's interesting. Yeah, it's not the first time they got
it from that account, or at least in a similar fashion, but it's an account that's based on
Russia. So I like texting back and like, bro, you got, you got Russians trying to derail your career
here. You're doing a great job. Russia's trying to smack your shit on Facebook. That or if it's
multiple shit from that account for them, or just trying to maybe like pen test your, your
police response and things like that. I don't know. That's weird. Because if it's not me, it's
Buffalo. That's interesting. Well, yeah, strange that it's a Buffalo thing. There's definitely a
connection between you and I there, which is, you know, somehow maybe what they wanted. I don't know.
Interesting. Two birds, one stone. Damn it. We've fallen directly into their hands.
They're evil Russian hands. But yeah, we stopped. We didn't do shit.
We didn't. We saved the city.
Heroes.
Zero.
We stopped a false threat,
but we treated it like a real one.
Good training.
It was good training.
It was.
Keys to the city.
Fuck, I can't believe I try to make myself a hero.
If they give Rich the keys to the city?
Piece of shit.
I don't even know me.
We saved the world.
That would be insane.
I expect the key to Buffalo in New York next time I come to town.
You've got it.
This name is Richard.
Hi.
Where do you want to go?
Oh.
I don't know, but we're going there on the Merv.
Yeah, we are.
Oh, we have three of them now.
What?
Good God.
We've upgraded.
There's another.
The big white one is huge.
Another murder is that often enough.
Yeah.
What a rare statement.
That in itself is a gem.
It's called the powerhouse.
It's like 40 feet long.
It's like 11 feet tall.
It's a rescue vehicle.
So it's got every compartment known to man.
We could fit tables, booze, party supplies.
I mean, everything.
Inside the cab are four chairs and a desk.
There's a full.
on desk office. Not including like the three
front seats to like drive it and operate it.
I heard poker table. Yeah,
you could do that. That's one-sided, but we can make that happen.
Yeah. How much bigger than the
MIRV? A third. A third larger than the MIRV. The MIRV's like nine and a half
feet tall. When did you get the second Merv?
Now I'm like there's three of them. The second Merv is one from like
1990s. It's an old school one.
1989.
1889. Red just a
iconic fire truck.
Right around,
shit. Where are we?
23.
Oh, so even when we did the Buffalo show.
That truck was probably coming online at that exact point.
It takes...
We might have...
When you did the Buffalo show and we had the Merv, I believe...
Because wasn't that the first set of tours?
Yeah, that was the first, like...
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, we might have had it.
It was just getting fixed.
We were just getting it.
Just before the summer that we got it.
We would go to the volunteer fire companies and go to their board.
We're like, hey, listen, do you guys want to have fun, but without all the rules?
we don't belong to you so we can do whatever you want.
We have your fire truck.
Here's a $3,000 donation.
Cool.
That's honestly great.
It's fantastic because now there's no liability on them.
We carry all the insurances with our nonprofit.
And then this is the magical part.
Cummins Diesel, the International Motor Repair, like the diesel.
They're like, yeah, we'll sponsor all three of your trucks.
No shit.
So they pick up the bill in every repair because there's a Cummins L10 motor made in Jamestown, New York.
So the way that you finangled all this, they talk about like skills you.
Finagle sounds like Jewie.
Like, you know, what are you saying?
Skills you learn in the military non-crossing over to civilian life.
Finagled, fabled, what are we talking about it?
Yeah.
So absolutely 100% applying what we did in the military to civilian life.
And it's kind of fun.
The first fire truck we got, I don't know if you ever heard the origination of the Merv.
I went to a Girl Scout meeting with my daughter.
Like my wife's like, I can't make it you go.
I'm like, okay, cool.
I'm off of work.
I'll go.
But it's in my town.
I work with these people.
crack a beer with the fire chief. I'm like, hey, blah, blah, blah. I'd like to buy some of your trucks.
I thought I was going to buy an excursion or something. I thought it was going to be fun, like just a
regular truck. $750 for like a $2,000 and something excursion with like no miles on it. I'm like,
yes, I'll take two of those. He's like, we don't have that. We got a fire truck. I'm like, oh, shit,
I got a problem. I own a minivan at this point. I have two daughters. I can't just be spending like
family money on fire trucks. Not with that attitude. No.
Quitter. I'm so negative. Honey.
Hear me?
Yeah.
So instead, I do the next best thing.
I'm like, let me call my YouTube friend.
Hey, Rich, you want to buy a fire truck and turn into a party mobile?
I don't remember the exact details of the conversation.
Rich is like, yes, hang up.
I'm like, we'll take it.
Later, Rich is like, oh, you didn't tell me how much.
Yeah.
Like, I mean, it doesn't matter, but how much is this going to cost?
That's a ride or dies, what that is.
It's pretty much.
Yeah.
We're tight.
Yeah, so I show up with a fire truck.
My wife is, like, less than impressed by this whole thing.
It's like, we're going to park that.
I'm like, I don't know.
in my mind immediately in your ass.
That's not what happens, right?
Like, we don't literally park a fire truck
with my wife's ass.
I put in my brother's driveway
who lives next door.
I smashed up all the concrete.
The fire truck weighs over 24,000 pounds.
I owe my brother a new driveway.
Yeah.
How much was it?
The driveway?
All the driveway is way more
than the fire truck.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
You guys got a deal.
Oh, we got a deal.
You want to tell them.
You started because you know the original price.
This motherfucker.
Talked him down. It's impressive.
Tell them what the starting price was.
Well, let me tell you about old people.
Old people are like, you know how much that was?
I'm like, yeah, sure, dude.
Like back in the 90s, it was over 400,000.
They were like, we want like 60 grand.
I'm like, well, I'm not giving you 60 grand for a fire truck.
Have you seen my minivan?
I don't have 60 grand.
We got him down to $3,000.
Are you fucking kidding me?
Yeah, three grand.
We got a fire truck for three Gs.
How do you go from how many Glockes did you give him?
Sh!
Brandon, now that's the time.
That's it.
You know what?
No state in Iraq and you know it.
First of all, that's enough.
It says right here, Austria.
That's where they came from.
Rich said you guys were friends.
I'm a little bit attacked here.
This is not, this is entertainment, right?
How do you get $3,000?
Well, we, so the functional aspect of owning a fire truck is expensive.
We didn't really know what we were getting into, but there's wiring issues, motor issues.
There's $260 an hour mechanics involved.
involved in all these issues.
But when you're in a fire hall,
these guys are like, I can fix that.
They're not mechanics.
They just wire stuff up
whichever way they feel.
So we end up with engine issues,
electrical issues, and more.
Also, you got two cops owning a fire truck.
We don't know what the fuck we're doing.
What year did you buy this?
When did we actually buy that?
Was that 2020?
No, it's the fucking Merv 19, Joseph.
No, no, but we actually took possession
of it in 2020.
I negotiated the deal somewhere between November and December.
Oh, we closed on the house, baby.
Is that what you want me to say?
Yeah.
Okay.
Just in time for the time.
the George Floyd ride.
Yeah.
So one of the fun facts is I call my insurance broker.
I'm like, hey, I got a fire truck.
I'm like, you know, an ice cream truck?
I didn't say ice cream truck.
I said fire truck.
So I go to insurance, like, how much you want?
I'm like, 100 grand.
If this thing burns to the ground, I need 100 grand.
She's like, okay, that's $800 a year.
I'm like, hmm, fantastic price.
Rich calls me up.
He's like, ah, Antifa Mark the Merks.
I put it in a video and they like want to burn down like,
150.
I'm like, I'm like, burn it.
Take it.
It's like probably one of the best gambols ever.
Yeah, fire bomb, Maltaff cocktail, the Merve.
One, we'll get some videos out of it, and yeah, insurance pays.
Antifa burned the Merve.
Here's my Lamborghini.
But you know what's better than that?
Knowledge, my books.
So yeah, we had a good time buying the Merv.
And it was really neat just driving around town during COVID when like these kids couldn't have birthday parties.
They couldn't go anywhere.
And we'd drive up with a fire truck.
And people were like, is that real?
Is that guy intoxicated?
Why is he on the roof?
I mean, live show, it was a wild experience, like, getting picked up at the hotel.
And it's like, Richard's like, well, let's fucking go.
I think that's the most snow I've ever seen in my life.
Oh, dude.
That was a decent amount of snow.
That was a very cold day.
It was very cold.
Brother, I live in Texas.
Brother, even for Buffalo, it was a very cold day.
Okay.
So, speaking of cold, I tried to turn the shower down all the way to cold.
It was still like 80 degrees here.
How was cold 80 degrees in the shower?
hour. Oh. That sounds pretty cold.
Be honest.
Because your water heaters are in your garages,
which are insanely hot. That doesn't make it.
We can't put our water heaters in the garage. All right,
garages go down to 20 degrees.
Freeze out.
Yeah. Yeah, they'd pop. In the basement.
Yeah, we don't really have.
Yeah, it's all slight and also
not. Thanks, Texas. Five degrees.
You guys got a lot of cool gun laws, but your shower.
Why do you want to take a cold shower?
Because I wanted to wake the hell up. I like a cold shower.
I'm really. That's psychotic. I'm okay with like a cold
shower after like working in the, like, you know,
Cunning glass.
Legernerally, sure.
I used to do that back in the day.
Yeah.
I used to do a little bit of farm work shit like that, but like construction, whatever.
Like come back and like take a cold shower.
That's awesome.
Yeah.
In the morning, fuck off.
I like a nice warm shower.
I let my fucking brain work up.
Like wake up.
Yeah.
I mean, just a little different.
I was here.
I'm like, you know, I'm on a cold shower.
No such thing.
Pleasantly unsurprised when I was like, cold.
Cold.
Cold.
I'm like, still hot.
This is crazy.
Yeah.
It was pretty wild, man.
There was no cold shower.
Now, you're in Texas.
This is like 102 out.
It's miserable.
Brandon had his, your morning walk today.
You know, I was my, uh, we did a skeet shooting thing, uh, this morning.
Oh, when's your walk?
My walk?
Don't you're going like door to door?
Oh, door knocking?
Yeah.
Oh, you're doing warrants?
That's awesome.
Yeah.
It's that how he gets.
Vote for Brandon.
It's actually the opposite.
It's only knocks.
It's only knocks.
Only cocks?
Brandi Herrera.
Come out with your hands up.
Show me your winner.
Today's high was at 96, or excuse me, 98.
What was the humidity?
It felt a little thick out there.
It just rained yesterday.
Last night, it was bad.
Yeah, we saw it.
Fucking miserable.
Humidity, yeah, 40s.
I almost lost my head.
It had to be hard.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It blew off my head.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
You guys, like, chose full-on cowboy outfits.
You went to.
Are you serious?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, they buy.
We'll see us tomorrow.
We'll see us tomorrow.
Oh, I'm excited.
Oh, they dressed for the occasion.
They went out.
They had a shopping trip.
Hell yeah.
Oh, we did.
He dressed me up.
I got up a buckle.
They look to be handsome.
Showing up to the event and assless chaps.
Is that what Texans do?
Not really, but...
No, no, you could have said yes, and this would be great.
Yes, assless chaps, Rick.
So it is.
Yeah.
When are you doing your knocking thing?
All the time.
Oh, door knocking is just a thing that happens.
Oh, well, last night you were doing the watch the formula and all that.
And then buck and dose, I was wrong.
I went to the wrong one because I tried to show up.
I was like, oh, I'll just say what I can support you.
Yeah, Buckingdo is like the, yeah, the gun store.
There's multiple.
So I went to the wrong one.
Oh.
Oh.
I was like, oh, well.
I sent you the invitation.
I sent you the thing.
Yeah, but I didn't go to the address.
I just buckingdose because that's what I'm saying.
There's multiple of those.
I didn't know that.
Yeah.
So I was like, here.
And I was like, where the fuck is everyone?
I look, I pull up the address.
It was like, nope, wrong, completely wrong spot.
So I tried.
Actually, was it the right spot?
Is that where the FRTs are that we don't need, that we can't have?
That we can't have?
I don't want them.
It's a Class A misdemeanor.
Yeah.
And I, and I can't.
It's a classy misdemeanor.
That's crazy.
Wow.
Oh, douch.
It's kind of like your campaign.
Tell me more about your knockers.
Sorry.
I was holding that one in.
We're door knocking.
I'm like, oh my God, I want to know more about Brandon's knockers.
I need to know more about his knockers.
Actually, we're approaching time.
About ready to go?
Yeah.
Because actually, I have to go to another event.
There you are right now.
Then we're good.
Fucking, fucking, what time?
Oh, yeah.
You got your whole event to do.
Yeah.
multiple events tonight. We got a bunch of shit tonight.
Hey.
People knock on doors and Brandon thanks them
for it. He's shaking his knockers.
That was like a four of ten.
I know, but I loved it.
It was simple. It was low-hanging.
He's just the natural exercise to get there.
It's just fun.
He's just proud of it.
Yeah.
It took it to, he was like, I'm going to make this work.
Yeah.
Yeah, I was smelling the steam coming out.
The script running in the background.
Smelling cheap tequila.
Bad decisions?
That's what my steam smells like.
