Do you have a couple drinks at that point? Oh a couple to your patience level Has a great patience level and then the drinks start in it starts going away if they start annoying you and weren't they just like

What do you do or yeah, I forget what was pissing. I don't know there was one guy. What did you say to him? I can't remember what it was, but he left you alone after I don't know I Remember there was one staffer He was being a dick because you were just like kind of like like a little boy like hands between knees you're like Brandon I might have said something to someone I was like oh god what happened I don't remember it was cool though whatever it is I stand by it and now we're just doing what we just left today

we just did an easy day at the dropping off supplies with bunker down in Kerrville or where was that exactly? Well, so it's in the Kerrville area, but it's it's called center point. Gotcha. It's a little bit more downriver from Kerrville. And that's where everyone's like all the help and fire departments there. That's the main operating point that they're exfilling from. In that area, yeah.

It's a lot of the stuff that got washed away from Curvil is getting, it's ending up in Centerpoint. Which also fucking wild seeing... I mean, we were driving across that bridge and there was a dam and just couldn't see that dam. No, I didn't even know there was a dam there that we didn't see. Oh, the one bridge you drive across to get into Centerpoint? Yeah. Holy shit. Yeah, there was a dam there that we didn't see. Oh, the one bridge you drive across to get into center point. Yeah. Oh, yeah. There's a damn.

Geez, dude. If you look at the water damage where that bridge is, there are trees 40 feet tall that are just knocked over. We were destroyed. It was on a road, walking on a road parallel to the river that was a hundred yards from the waterline and all the trees and so like the rivers over here and there's a field of trees on the other side of the road.

Everything's just folded over fences trees. Like the water was a way up there. And I can't emphasize enough how different that was a week ago. Like it was even, it was worse. Like you, they, there's a lot of cleanup that has been done since which is awesome like that's that's incredible you love to see it dude Jen are telling a story of that that woman that was on a tree so those houses across the river from us and these are on stilts these are like 20 feet up how yeah they're up like up up the bank of like where the river. Yeah.

And a lady was stuck on a log, a tree that was going down over for eight hours. It traveled. She traveled 14 miles stuck and it ended up at one of those houses and that family saved that woman pulled her off the tree and she rode all the way down that river. I was like, holy 12 miles was fucking wild. There's more like the people that are being found like 20 30 miles from where they were picked up. It's fucking crazy. Like the violence of water is something that I was never I've seen floods before. I've never seen that. The water is terrifying. I'm good. Why I don't like the ocean. All you nerds. I want to live by the coast. No, I've never said that once I'm Mexican. I hate fucking I think like a goddamn

Rock what I love the coast Does happen yearly God make an earth like A hurricane came out of nowhere? No! This happened yearly. God, make an earth like... Make the water non-drinkable so they know not to go there. Humans, I fucking love it. I don't understand. Like, is giving you signs, you're not listening. You don't- You fell out with fucking monsters so they really understand. We're gonna try to catch them.

Like, just fucking leave it alone. You really don't like the beach at all. No! Like, like not even to visit zero. I don't even like swimming do you remember at Coronado? I'm with this guy when Nick goes home We're at the beautiful San Diego Beach before the live show just like finally taking a moment to decompress a little bit Hey, so we're going to the we're at hatred the beach we're going into the water like a flip flops on I'm like pulling the fucking like my pants up a bit whatever just

going into the water Nick gets his shoes touched by water like it wasn't touched my fucking socks were soaked okay yeah well it's like one of those you know where like the the the wave comes up a little bit further than you expect or whatever and it Ruined your day. Hey hate it like the tism came out hard. You're just leaving. Mm-hmm. You just locked up like Leaving I'm gonna go buy no I'm gonna buy new shoes. Yeah, like he's is is he actually oh no, he's fucking gone Yeah, zero interest none. Not even a little I would never understand the psychology that goes into like, you know what would be really fun? If we surrounded yourself by an environment where if you quit actively moving, you'll

fucking die. Wouldn't that be great? Don't get me wrong, I'm there with you. Oh my god. It's summertime though, it would be great to cool down. I have a motherfucking air conditioner, okay? We figured out how to domesticate the wind and you're gonna go fuck around in water to cool off?

Get the fuck out of here. This is a bundle of joy over here. I I hate water all of it it's what we were talking about yesterday it's like all right look if nature is so great then why do we judge how civilized the society is based on how far they are from it science how successful they are and getting away from it Nick and his logic Jim gaff again if nature is awesome, how come all the bugs are trying to get in my fucking house? Have you ever done a cruise? No. Why would I go on a cruise?

Oh my God, you know what would be great? A giant city, which I also fucking hate, but hear me out. It's floating on water and if anything goes wrong, you all fucking die. And because you're a dude you get To get on the life raft last I'm good Do you see the Carnival Cruise that list of rules they came out with and they're saying it's racist Have you seen that yet? No, it's carnival, right? That's that's the one I think so. That's the one of what okay, so the rules Okay. So the rules, the rules, it starts off. It's like, you know, only this many drinks are permitted a day. Uh,

you can't have your speakers out there. Your JBL speakers playing loud music, no rap music. No shit. They just was like, eh. Yeah. It's like the cruise will not, the cruise liner will no longer be playing rap music Yeah, that's what I don't know. I don't know who they're directing that towards but you remember the Doctor made this the guy who's talking about the the Bluetooth jammer like the ones that are like super illegal Yeah, he's like yeah, I got one of those and bring it to the speed to the to the beach with my family this weekend I'm gonna be like the cone of no Puerto Ricans.

Or just not go to the beach. I don't like to be, I am. I'll walk it really good. Dude, you give me like, I'll exercise like a quick jog and out or I will. I like looking at it. Like I don't, I don't, I'm not necessarily a big, like I don't want to jump in the water or like be out deep sea fishing or any shit like that. But like, I like sitting like at a restaurant that's beach side, like stuff like that. I like that.

Like the beach getting in it, it is actively pushing you back towards the sand, which sucks. I can't swim, which sucks. I can like, I can tread water, but it's not the best Mexican. Worst Mexican. I can swim all right. Hawaii's not bad. You have, have you? No, never mind. Hawaii, going to a beach in Hawaii is pretty fucking dope. Like the white sand and it's 70 degrees water. It's nice as shit. I'm like, okay, I could, I could fuck with this for two days I'm good. Don't the locals fucking hate. Yes, why though? Yeah completely

Justified unpopular opinion like I'm honestly I'm on their side like I would hate Everyone coming to visit to like those people get fucked hard, yeah, cuz it's like they were chilling there for however long and then like You know travel became cheaper and it's like their family's been there forever And then now it's like oh that three-bedroom house that you grew up in well now You're a major tourist destination and that house went from the thirty eight thousand dollars that your grandparents paid for it in the 1930s to Seven million dollars and now three generations of your family have to live in this house just to pay off the property taxes, even though the

house is paid off. And then if you can't pay the property taxes, we take it and turn it into a fucking hotel. Hypothetical, though, and I don't know the truth on this one way or the other. If all of the Americans just left, would they not be even more fucked? I mean, potentially, they're still traveling traveling and I'm just saying like I'm not saying like they have tourism died tomorrow and all Americans were not allowed to know for sure.

I get your point. I just feel like there needs to be some type of like zoning where it's like, okay, if you've lived here for five generations, we're not going to have you pay the Bill Gates level mortgage tax rates of, you know, like, well, Bill Gates wants to buy your property, so we're going to value it at $10 million. So you can't afford to pay the taxes so we can confiscate it. And you can't afford to live where you're from anymore. Seems like bullshit to me.

One of the billionaires owns a large quantity of Hawaii. Oh, yeah. After those fires went through, it was like Oprah on the rock. We're buying up all the properties of the houses that went down. Because through, it was like Oprah and the Rock were buying up all the properties of the houses that went down. Because I think it's property tax where that fucks it up. Because like in a free market, it's like, yeah, if you decide that you want your family home that you've lived there for 200 years or whatever,

that's worth more to you than $10 million. You should be able to keep that. Yeah. But then they value it in the property taxes, the government fucks it up. Right, so it's like, no, now you're paying property taxes. You know, you're paying thousands of dollars a month in property taxes, and you can't afford to do anything.

Yeah, that's kind of shitty. Oh my god. Larry Ellison, I don't know who that is. Larry Ellison? Ellison. Yeah. Owns of the island of Lanai. Lanai?

Lani? I wouldn't know. Guess how much of a percentage he owns of the island of lanai lanai lani I wouldn't know guess how much of a percentage he owns 78% nope 90 98% isn't he I think he's one of the Google founders yeah he bought it for 300 million dollars just owning 98% of a fuck 300 million yeah I guarantee you bought it a long time ago and then you have like Steve Case owns 35,000 acres he started AOL I know Larry Ellison I'm sorry he was a Oracle Oracle yeah okay Oracle dude that is wild and then that drives property taxes up cool. How much? Yeah, that'll fuck shit up really fucking good, but then the other owners are Kamehameha family which Fucking dope ass. I'm just wait like the most realistic sci-fi movie ever as far as like real estate market is Elysium

as far as like real estate market is Elysium. Like as soon as as soon as space travel becomes mainstream, like Mars is one giant HOA for rich people. It's all it is. That's what's going to happen. And the first guy on it's going to be an African-American. Somebody was on some podcast like broke down how all the Elon Musk companies are just about colonizing Mars. Like they all seem so random, but they're all about colonizing Mars.

Yep. Neuralink? All of them. So like, so he's like Tesla, like electric cars, you're going to have to do electric cars because there's no fossil fuels on Mars. Okay. That makes sense. That we know of.

The boring company. We're not going to live on the surface. We're going to have massive under subterranean layers. Got to get good at drilling holes. That's why he has a boring company. The Tesla robot. Why the fuck is a car company making robots? Well, so you can send them there years ahead of time to build up all the infrastructure before the people get there and like just

ran down how every company has just all about colonizing Mars. We need a aluminum foil hat you put in or on before each segment you do. Like, why? That's not even my conspiracy. We're gonna talk about the cheesecakes. Motherfuckers are hiding dairy in the earth. This is true.

This is true. This is hours of nicaranting. They'll call me a conspiracy theorist, but they'll never call me a liar. I Am correct poor people will never poop again the amount of email Just gonna relax and have fun like I thank God God, did you know it's smooth sack summer? Damn right it is. I need to quit.

What's your next? You have a Darwin. Oh, you guys, at the moment of this, would have been out. Probably already out, yeah. Yeah. But yeah, we're going to get some. Was this your first one?

Together? I've learned that I like Darwin Awards better when I've got somebody to riff off of. It's usually a lot of fun, So we'll see how that goes. I don't like to watch horrific accidents by myself. Wah. It's one of those. I realize I stopped-

Get a nine to five, Brandon! I stopped liking- Learn to code! I started realizing I didn't like doing Darwin anymore because I was like, man, I'm just going to have to sit there and watch 10 hours of just people shooting themselves and just horrific accidents and shit and I'm like And then I should get other people involved and then now Hey, I curated it all already. It's just looking through all this shit. They're like, alright now how to make it funny Hmm, you know winning son. This is how the double barrel shotgun was invented. Same concept

Nothing never mind. Oh You're talking about co-op mode We know I got that coming up and I got a batch batch of stuff We got a bunch of guns like I got a transferable Lewis machine gun the metal gear solid stuff we still got coming up AK-50 stuff you know we're gonna do stuff like that did we talk about where the AK-50 is now oh we didn't know that just got released in the newest wipe as of like two days ago for escape from Tarkov dude so now you if you play escape from Tarkov can get head-eyes from fucking nowhere in

woods by an AK-50. Do they say what drops it or how you get it? They haven't even said that. I've been told, I don't even fucking know, but I've been told that it's like a quest. You have to watch a YouTube channel for seven fucking years before you unlock it. I'm just going to say that, yes. Fuck, my gun's gone. But it's the quest.

There's, I think, a hidden quest that they haven't announced that will end up. That'll be the item you get from it. But I'm just going to beg Nikita. I'm like, I just need some gameplay footage. Can you just, can I have a crumb of my own gun? Dude, the quest better have your name in it. It actually says, I think, AK guy, AK-50.

On the thing. War hero, Brandon Herrera, mid weapon. You're like, no, no. That would be such a mother fuck. Fuck you. Dude, I want to see that thing in the hands of like Willers or Landmark. Let's give them an ak-50 get some footage I was funny cuz like Willers is such like an actual like small human being and

To see him like and think of him in game holding a 35 pound rifle and like doing fucking parkour Bunny hopping around buildings just smoking people 360 shooting jumping off second story buildings landing on rails That's Tarkov where that is I mean his play style is like fucking yeet yourself off your legs snap You kill everyone and you're like morphine crawl legs attraction point like so realistic Reattach your legs it I mean like it really is it's a pretty realistic game like comparatively like if you're comparing it to like Call of Duty and battlefield and shit like that, but at the same time You get some dude like that that's super good at like Willard's probably one of the best players on the planet 100% as yeah, they can break it. Yeah, and that is not have you ever watched that gameplay? Yeah, so you can break limbs

like if you get shot in the femur like that can break and you have to turn a kit you have to Splints you Splints. You can do like field surgery kits. Certain bandages do small bleeds, certain bandages do heavy bleeds. You can do like uppers. There's actually, wait, alcohol, you can get drunk in that game, right?

They have the vodka and stuff? Yeah, you get super dehydrated, I think is what happens to your character. And then the old mayonnaise just kills you. Dehydrates the shit out of you instantly zero hydration and you just slowly die in this game You have to eat and stay hydrated if you're walking like a long distance and shit like that. That's how fun I hate it Like everything it sounds like a chick flick video game. That's what that's Here's the thing you have to have like there you can have different styles of armors that have different coverage areas and

Depending on what caliber you're using you have to use specific types of ammo like full metal jacket does different than you know M855A1 for armor penetration shit, so it's like really they put a lot of thought into it Maybe they it's like the NWBA like it's a lot of nothing, but then people get attacked every once in a while and it's cool. Wait, why? Jesus Christ. In the WNBA? That joke of very, some onion, that was an onion.

No, I never watched the WNBA until Caitlin Clark started getting pushed onto the ground. He's like, as soon as I figured out beaten women was involved. Oh shit. There's like, as soon as I figure out beaten women was, oh, shit, there's three white girls on the Indiana Fever. They call them Trace Lachey's that's fucking hilarious. Oh, it was so annoying.

So my wife is super into it. And one of the girls on the Indiana Fever team, Sophia Cunningham, she's like six", and somebody blindsided Kaitlyn Clark earlier in the game. So this Sophia Cunningham blindsides this girl, basically grabs her head and throws her onto the court. And everybody loved her for it,

for like sticking up for Kaitlyn. And the internet was like, she needs to be careful because I forget the girl's name that she threw on the ground She was the youngest black taekwondo black belt in Missouri state history She got her black belt when she was six and I'm like Sophia Cunningham played varsity football and a six-year-old black belt means literally fucking nothing like I don't Nobody at six knows how to fight. I don't know if this is like brown great

Like I don't, nobody at six knows how to fight. I don't know if this is like brown, gray, groundbreaking internet shit, but like black belt at six is. Breaking news, Nick, the fat electrician says he can take any six year old. This is true. I do. If you hate me enough, I'll beat the shit out of this.

I'm six year old. Call up team. Line them up. All the black belt, one punch. Call up team star. How many can I fight for how much money? I was never understood the idea of giving kiddos black books was like there they can defend themselves. I can't I like jujitsu. You're not even allowed to be a blue belt until you're 16 Cuz it's not allowed. Yeah, you know why?

Before that you don't have testosterone or anything. Like an adult attacks you. All right, if we do the beating children up competition, we gotta take 34% of the revenue for ourselves. I like that. Oh yeah, right. Yep, we'll call it, I don't know, Creator Clash Four. Fuck them kids. We could probably make that so much money we do donate it to all great causes though I feel like that's gonna be a Russian sport in the

future it's like a mobile game at it's just a child fighting rings that we're talking about starting but it's adult beatings oh god yeah or as they called I Was they called it my house growing up discipline I promise we're good people Do the fucking dishes Mr.. Cody, what are you working on now? Just fucking police shootings? Cody's streaming his ass off Yeah, shit. Yeah, Monday to Friday 10 a.m. Yep, it twitch and kick door on two three. Yeah, like five our streams What are you liking more right now with like the difference between those two? Definitely the streaming Well, like kick that like kick or twitch Oh go kick pays more. They got like a 95 5 ad split or revenue split

95 5 compared to twitch's 70 30. Just fucking crazy. Even for a partner creator. Jesus fuck that is worse than it used to be. Wait, you're 70 30. And that's negotiated though, right? No, I think I've never negotiated when they won't talk to me. No, like he's taking 30, right? No, I'm taking 70.

Okay, I thought it was worse. Okay, nevermind. That is better than I thought. No, wait, no, it's 5050. It's 50. I'm 50 70. Okay. I thought it was worse. Okay. Never mind. That is better than I thought. No 50-50, I'm 50. Yeah, sorry. Sorry. You can negotiate 70-30. Got it. Okay. Yeah, sorry I'm getting 50-50. Okay, isn't that wild 50-50 is what they take Bezos needs more rocket money He just all floated like a billion dollars of Amazon. You see that the other day No, it was like he did six hundred and something million the other day than the day after he did a hundred and something million Jesus I don't know why I'm sure there's the theories out there I mean he's that's nothing because he makes a living selling cheap shit imported from China

Yeah, I mean rewind a 20 years ago I guarantee didn't think it was what 90s when did Amazon come around? It was in 90s. Yeah. Yeah, I don't think he thought it would be to online bookstore Yeah, I'd be like what the fuck did I create? Yeah, 20 years buddy 25 years. You're gonna be a bald divorcee on TRT shooting rockets at the sky He is Jack though. Every rich guy gets jacked Okay, I like Elon all props to him. Got his hair back when he got money. Weird.

Money fixes a lot of things, apparently. Dude, so streaming. You know who else got their hair back after they got money? Nowhere near to Jeff Bezos levels of money. But who's Steve Carell? If you watched the first few seasons of The Office, he is very, very thinning, going bald, and his hair gets progressively thicker

as the show gets more successful. It's wild. It's like a hair, like a Benjamin Button hairline. I know. What were you saying? Sorry. No, I forget now. Okay, good.

Steve Carell's hairline is like, wait, he was balding? It was bad in the early seasons. I got a cool story about Steve Carell. Oh, no. So like actually a cool story. My one of my favorite teachers growing up, I won't say his name, but I don't know if this is Steve Carell, whatever the fuck. Steve, Steve Carell. He was my geography teacher, and a history teacher and whatnot. Really one of those guys who like made learning fun. It was like having Nick as your history teacher. Like he was just a cool dude So he was actually he was always like really funny Jerry Mandarin had to have been fucking lit

But he was in college he was part of of a three man comedy group with Steve Carell. So like Steve Carell was one of the members and they had this agreement where they're like, all right, we're going to do a 20 year anniversary, like reunion of the comedy group, whatever this is from the fucking nineties. And he goes, all right, we're all going to meet up together at this place. 20 years from now, whatever we're doing in life and we're going to get together and, you know, fucking reminisce or whatever.

So he goes and the other guy goes at fully not expecting Steve Carell to show up because God he's doing movies and whatever the fuck else. Steve Carell shows up at the 20 year reunion of their little three man comedy group. And so he had a picture on his desk of all three of them like fucking there's Steve Carell I thought that was kind of cool. That's cool. That's a homie to he shows up for that. You're like, yeah Yeah, I would have been late

We would have expected it on the 20 year reunion of unsub. I showed up Yeah, I show up in the 21st. You're like, where is everyone? I'm sorry My brain don't work so good. Dude, fuck. I was gonna say the whole thing about this. So we all take supplements and then create. Well, we take Yeah, we take supplements with healthy. You do all the different supplements. Why are you defending supplements? But creating, you know, do you, any of you do a... Acting like a steroid.

Gummy creatines. Yeah. Holy shit, there's a massive lawsuit about that shit. Oh. Yeah, yeah, and probably yours. Which ones? A metric shit ton. What kind of lawsuit?

There's a whole thing that got dropped. They don't, well, it's not bad, but they don't have any creatine. Only one out of it was almost 90% of them really had zero creatine in it. Yeah. No shit. Yep. 2% of the five grams. So they're 0.0, 0.09. Oh, so like completely like nothing, nothing. Yeah. But all of that is a whole organization. I keep up with the health stuff since we started fighting.

Oh, actually, hey, we're doing a fitness thing. If you didn't watch the last episode, we're actually doing a fitness thing. And then we're figuring out what challenges we're going to do for this. We don't know. God. What?

Dude, oh, fuck, we didn't even get to talk about boxing. We outboxed. Yeah. This is true. Dude, fuck. We even get to talk about boxing. We are boxed. Yeah, this is true. Dude, that the whole gang in the boxing gym, which I never thought would have ever happened. That was cool. Go again tonight. I'm 100% down for that. Sav Sav said that was the happiest.

Hey, but fight him in the ocean. We'll both drown. Ring out. Dude, I was absolutely, it was weird because that was the first time I was like, ah, fuck, dude.

I was just gonna do stand up if me and Nick ever got in a fight. Now I'm just gonna do stand-up if me and Nick ever got in a fight now She's gonna suck cuz he's 50 pounds Run Run away really fast can't remember whose joke it is, but it's like I'm free alright. I'm a black belt and click pal The meme of Goku with all the henchmen around him dead is like jujitsu, taekwondo, boxing, blah blah blah and Goku is just Glock 19. But everyone dig it, you got a spar with Cody and that was, I mean just watching everyone

actually fight, spar, hit and then you guys catch on so fast. I punched Aiden way harder than I wanted to that I didn't throw that I threw the punch fast But it wasn't gonna connect but he stepped into it and he's like He wasn't wearing head gear That's what I always think I don't think about the head gear like I could live with that the teeth Cody got you dude and it's awesome a youtubers bar I was thinking about the headgear. I was like, I could live with that. The teeth, the clacking. Cody got you dude. And it's awesome. A YouTube respond. You threw an upper hit Cody and Cody was like, well, fighting is very much a learn really quickly and whatnot.

Don't like that. Iniquity to cross guard and they could and Nick was like punched to the stomach. He's like, hmm. I'm all over my cross guard. It's just kind of funny because it is such like toxic masculinity like dude shit. Cause like me and Eli are in, we do two rounds. I leave like we have a conversation. We're like, oh yeah, that was fucking cool, man.

Oh, let's work on this next time. And I walk outside and I spit and I'm like, I thought I tasted blood. It's fine. Then we went to BJ's sweaty as fuck.

He looks at the old grumpy mechanic and he's like, any Chrysler 300 and the old guy just turns around and he was never mind. He's really gonna say Pack a mint dolls any car When they do the HR We actually have a show for pepper box. We're working on right now.

Do you know about this? No. Okay. So I I've been working on a show for a minute now. Actually Cody was the one who pushed me into it. Uh, we were on a flight. I don't know if we were going to New York or where we were for the UFC fight or something, but you're just like, why don't you do, or like, cause we were, we were bantering back and forth about like, doing a show based out of a gun shop and just like the shit that goes on with like a gun store employees

and you know, shit like that. And you're like, well, why don't you just fucking do it? And so I started writing notes there. I talked to Eli about it. So hopefully that's something we can do going forward. But I'm excited for it. I think it's going to be a lot of fucking fun. It's funny because I've been wanting to do basically the same concept as the office, but with my jujitsu academy. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, you add that to it.

Because then it's, oh, dude, yes, yes. Because we'll fly the crew up, have that done. The tire or however this one, the gun store, whatever we end up calling that, like episode one is we just have to write it. But we have the three acts or the three different stories going in the acts built out. And it is. Yeah, it's I'll tell you about it after it's we had a lot of fun even just bantering about it and like writing it out. I think it's going to be fun. It'll be a good test for Pepperbox. I could see see how it converts. But I know that we're going to have a fucking blast filming it. Good. Bringing in like Darnell. I kicked him the rough script and then he had an idea.

I kicked up Brandon. I was like, bro, bro, this segment. He's like, oh my God. Yes. And this it just builds off of it. And then all of us in the writing room and then being able to I know this is riveting to the audience or like talking around something I know fucking stoked for I'm just fucking stoked I mean I love how they do tires they'll get the story out of the way then they just riff with each other and the best riffing stays in on top of that yeah cuz I'd love because you could tell they just knock out the the story bits and then they just let them fucking just rip with each other but I also took a lot of inspiration from VEEP which I don't know who the fuck didn't like tie me

to a chair and force me to watch that show, but it is probably one of the best political comedies I've ever seen. Like it is, it was actually giving me like campaign PTSD. It's really good. Like it's just, even the way staffers talk to each other and stuff and like just the kind of scenarios and shit like that.

It's absurd, but it's They did their fucking homework. Like they talked to staffers when they wrote their show. That's the one we have. I still need to watch I want to talk about F1 because you watched F1. We haven't but the fucking fitness thing. We are doing that 100% I think that builds a community aspect way better than anything 100% I think that built a community aspect way better than anything Especially when we have cash prizes we will all be pitching in money for that and then we'll have like top five We'll do gifts Fucking shirts merch and then money prizes. I think that will really bring everyone together and then then for six, we agreed 60 days.

Sure. Yeah. 60 days, we will get jacked as shit or lose a lot of weight or motivate in some aspect. And then on Discord and then in the comments, we'll figure out a way to better coordinate and on the Reddit, show your progress and then keep each other accountable for that time boys looking jacked boys looking jacked

There's a cat now. Speaking of shit I would do I made my I made my niece's birthday awkward for everybody. Go on. There's like we're at my my sister's house and in her driveway she's got like tents up and then like in the fenced in yard there's like an inflatable playhouse for the kids and it's a bunch of kids there. It's whatever I got the youngest kid and he's two. So like I'll go in there and watch and make sure like my two-year-old's not getting like trampled or whatever. It's fine. And so I'm in there. I'm like watching the kids and there's this other kid. He's like, I don't know, seven. He's the biggest kid in there. And he's

like shoving all the other kids down and like not letting them climb up this little ladder to go down the slide. And he just like, he shoves one kid and I'm like No frills delivers get groceries delivered to your door from no frills with pc express shop online and get 15 in pc optimum points on your first five orders shop now at no frills.ca Hey stop and all the kids just stop and look at me.

Yes. Stop shoving the other kids. And like all the parents get awkward. It's like, and then, you know, his parents come in and they start watching and whatever. It's like, okay, watch your kids. I have zero reservations about yelling at other people's kids in public. Yeah. Or hitting them.

I don't hit them. Yeah. It's not what I heard. I mean, dude, we had fucking shitbag kid. I won't say his name. I'm, I don't know if I've ever talked about that kid on this, but parents knew who I was talking about. Like friends, they're like, oh, that kid? They say it and then it was like, how the fuck do you know?

Cause he is just a shit bag across the board. Yep, Sab knows. Hang out with other kiddo. And I don't think this was a couple of years ago and we had a security cam in kiddo's room and Watching him just snatch. So they're wait. Let's all let's back up. They're at your house. Yeah, they're at my house They're both playing they god. Who's both? Okay. What like? What what's going on? I forgot about that. So

kiddo got dropped off at our house without asking the parents like oh our Son said that you lived here And we just had to find this house and we're like, okay Our kids plan to play date and we didn't run it by you. Yes, literally what happened So parents pulled up the mom dropped off the kid. I was like, hey, yeah, so You're good to watch him. I'm like, what the fuck's going on? Okay, bye. And drove off. Just dropped child. Yes. Okay.

Yeah. Literally. Rolled off a gunshot victim at the ER and sped away. Yup. And we're like, oh, what the fuck's going on? Okay. It was like, okay, whatever's going on. They're playing.

They handed back, boom, we leave. We just turn on the security camera. I'm like, I'm gonna guess it's gonna happen again really quickly and sure shit instantly. Playing on the tablet, it snatches it out of his hand. I walk in, I was like, hey, what are you doing? We just had this talk, do not do that again. You understand me.

That kid behaved the rest of the fucking time. It's amazing, you get a crumb of discipline. Yeah, and the parents did not understand it hey explained like yeah got on your kiddo What the hell are you doing? And then we watched the interaction no parenting whatsoever Like I've at all. I'm not a parent so I really like I don't have a whole lot of ground in this but I'm the only one here is not a parent I think but I'm the only one here who's not a parent I think but I think the I also I've been a kid though and like I've grown up around very good political

answer yes go ahead don't fucking scare me but like I've been a kid and I remember growing up with the other kids who like their parents were like oh I just want to like I just want to be friends with my kid and they were always shitbags yes oh these parents are the definition of that because they did not want to discipline. What bad, what were the look? I read a book by a woman with no kids in a doctorate degree that said I shouldn't discipline my children. Okay. She would know. There's just, she was fucking, the mom was a psychologist and the dad is a

stepdad and not trying to fucking step on rock the boat. So neither one to do anything and the kids are, oh, what am I doing? I don't want to leave throwing a fit about leaving. I was like, yeah, he has to fucking go and nope. Never welcome back here. Period. Ever again. Never hung out. We pulled kids.

So that's not your friend anymore. Ever in a million years. Never hanging out with that kid again. He's like, okay, yeah, he's weird. He's like, yeah, he is. He'd tell the dad, like, look, you dropped your kid off here again. I'm dropping him off at the pound. He remains aside. He's is gonna be real happy. What's all the other parents knew like, uh, fucking Maggie and Brandon, Maggie and Brandon, we didn't say a name. We're like, yeah,

the shit bag kid and they're like, oh, we'll bleep that name out. I was like, wait, what the fuck? She doesn't work at that school. She knows about them. Yes. I've never seen that before in my entire fucking life. Going back to what Brandon was saying, watching 14 years, some kid shows up at my door and all he knows is the internet.

And he's like, you're my dad, Brandon, right? Yeah. Like, hold on, I gotta make a phone call. This is hilarious. Oh, wait, your door? Yeah, it shows up at my door. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

Olympic wrestler and he's like I was at the park with my kid and some other kid that was bigger kept shoving my kid down and I told him to stop twice and the parents were like like hey buddy stop and then he did it a third time so I told his dad whatever your kid does to my kid next I'm gonna do to you and then they fucking left like that's hilarious the score me my balls is hot is that him no that was Derek Lewis okay Dan O'Cormie he announces for the UFC.

I want to try it. Eli, ridger is our word. Ridger to you. OK. Dude, we were talking in the car about I'm glad you brought that up Cuz I was going there too. We have the past story and then the Chuck stories are talking about we never heard But oh, yeah Mila Pat Militich, dude. I don't think the Chuck stories can make the podcast. They're in his book That's fair. I see

The past story I This is this is fuzzy. I say we're good. We're good. The past story. I had this is this is fuzzy. I read their books in high school forever ago. But the rough gist of the story was like if you don't know Pat Miletich opened what's considered basically like the first MMA camp fighting place in the United States at a Davenport, Iowa. He was the coach for like Matt Hughes, Tim Sylvia, former heavyweight champion, and like all those guys in the early days of UFC. I think he originally trained Ken Shamrock too.

I'm not sure. Trained a bunch of like the OG UFC guys, but he was like older by then, pioneer MMA, and he has a story about, I think it was Tim Sylvia winning a fight, and they go out to these clubs in like the Davenport area. The fight was like probably in Chicago in a fight and they go out to these clubs in like the Davenport area The fight was like probably in Chicago or something and they go out and they're out at the club and some dude gets into with Pat Militech is like older guys retired from MMA at this point the monster by the way it's still a horrifying human being to ninety nine point nine percent of people walking around like absolutely terrifying and They go outside because this dude has an issue with Pat Miletage and the dude tells Pat Miletage do you

know who I am and Pat's like no he's like I'm Pat Miletage and Pat Miletage is like huh and hands him his driver's license. I apparently the dude looks at it Frisbees that shit one way and runs the other way We got to get him on the podcast I also love that you remember this story from fucking a book You read in high school like the only book I remember reading from high school was catcher in the rye and by that time I was already too late to kill John Lennon I remember reading from high school was catch her in the rye. And by that time I was already too late to kill John Lennon. That's what I do. I read and remember things. It's my whole job.

I drink and I know things. Also really good story. It's fucking hilarious. We were talking about that. And then that went into, I forget what got us on our UFC fighter tangent at that point. Oh, we're having Don Fry on. yeah, we're having Don Fry on fuck Yes, oh Yeah, shout out to Don. I know apparently he watches the podcast and likes it from what I was told. Hey Don Text about it. Oh, yeah, don't like sure guys's stuff He started watching after I was talking with his team and setting everything up and they're like yeah

He's excited to be on we're like Don's like old-school base to do Don't ask him he'll say it Don't pack a mythos in the car It's like one of my favorite interviews of another fighter just going to spar old Don was like yeah I knew the dude was hard as shit. When I was stretching, getting ready, I look over and then Don just pops to percocets and gets in the ring. That's a fucking hard dude.

Fuck off. So he's going to come on the podcast. And then we were talking about boss rootin. We were showing his way we were yes, his old school in a fight. Yeah, where he's like, it was bare knuckle. So he would just go out there and open palm strike people. And he's like getting knockouts by open palm striking dudes in the liver and shit. Horrifying. Dude, like he ruptured somebody's liver, they have that

on camera. And then if you want to see a dude just instantly quit a fight and then get wheeled off on a stretcher is when Boss Rutan kicked it. He caused lacerations from the kick to the liver. Because like that, that shit can kill you, right? Like there's, there's a lot of blood in your liver. Your liver does a lot of important things and it also is one of the few things in your body I think that actually has like nerve endings where it's like hey, you're in danger. You're going to die That's why your body just shut it's also like punched

Oh, this is where we collect all the toxins that aren't supposed to be in your bloodstream. It just burst Yeah, have fun if you watch a good liver punch or kick, they like, they don't move anymore. Like there's no, like I'm going to fight the, ah, I'm going to fight through this. The person usually hops on their knees. The, the kick that happens to the guy's liver, he just shuts down and curls into a ball and starts crying. And then they will him off of the ring.

I think you got me last week. And it was even like, you go pretty light. And I had to take like a fiver. I was like, one second. It's all right. Brandon made it. I was like, just give me like five, 10 seconds. One sec.

Forgot about that. Doesn't feel good. No, ever. It just hurts like a motherfucker. What Chuck stories can we? I just want to have Chuck on I think that would be fucking hilarious Because I mean he's coming to your bachelor party. Yeah fucking great. My god. Yeah, he's gonna be there with us I did not know that. Oh, yeah I actually can't say anything I was about to say because if I say it on the podcast it becomes premeditated

So I'm just not gonna. Yeah, I hit him up when we started deciding the dates for the bachelor party. And I was like, Chuck's not going to say, yeah, you know, he's busy. He's doing all this stuff. He's making shows and hit him up. I was like, Hey, when bachelor party is going to be this week. He said, I'll write it off on my calendar. It's like, yes, this is awesome.

He confirmed that again in Vegas. He was like, just let me know the dates. Yeah. So it's going to be us and Chuck. He confirmed that again in Vegas. He was like just let me know the dates Yeah, so it's gonna be us and Chuck Don't let him plan it Yeah, no if you let him plan it it's gonna be a wildly different thing than what you want No, that's going in somebody's book No That's the hangover.

Yeah. Oh God. That Mike Tyson, we got Chuck Liddell. Oh, I'm just thinking like the gang wakes up. Oh God. In the Airbnb, where's Chuck? That's the whole movie. Brandon got deported last night. We got to go to Tijuana and rescue him.

I was born here. How'd this happen? I have a face tattoo. Nick, what are you doing? I'm building a hot air balloon. I've read about it. This is how they got it in Soviet, the eastern block of Germany. We're gonna smuggle Brandon back in. It's gonna be like that Red Dead 2 where they rescue the guy from the prison camp in a hot air balloon That's been one of the funny things is like people on the internet are like your last name's Herrera You know, they're gonna deport you to and I like before I'm like, I'm like that's that's retarded. Whatever now I just kind of go with it. I'm like, hey, that's what needs to happen. I understand

God speed. Oh, uh, fuck. We have our live show dates locked in and then we have what locations we're doing. We hit your neck of the woods finally. Yeah, we're going to Iowa. Ha! Ugh. Ugh. In Chicago?

Yeah, I didn't agree to that one, but okay. I would rather do Iowa. Thankfully they're back to back none of the great Oh two things you didn't want to do don't worry if we're doing them back to back It's like prison all over again The live shows for anyone does it is absolutely draining. We are so excited to do it. But dear God, that is the one like we leave those dead. Those are fucking exhausting.

It's like it's like hiking, right? It's like it's don't even wrong. We like doing it in theory and it's you feel a sense of accomplishment when it's done. And like you have a lot of good memories from it. But you're really tired when it's over with. We're not doing that for us. That is 100% for all of you. We are very tired.

Rich, Jack, I think man, Rich is a psychopath, he doesn't count. Even Jack was like, Jack talked about, he's like, yeah, the San Diego show when I showed up, or San Diego, right? Yeah, yeah. Yeah, Jack was like, yeah, when I seen seen rich exhausted that's when he knew he's like oh I'm a sock doing that tour because we'd flew from the East Coast that morning to the West Coast

for what Virginia to San Diego yep and then performed well you got your socks wet. I know. And then. Still mad about it. That's the day I found out you can in fact door dash shoes. What? Didn't know that, did you? No. How do you think I got new shoes? I door dashed Ray-Bans in San Francisco when I was there. Did you really?

Yeah. I was there for the Young Americans for Liberty thing and I like, I got super frustrated because their airport's under construction so I I just hopped fucking concrete barrier Like at one point and I scratched the shit out of my ray-bans said door dash another pair. I felt like an asshole Yeah Capitalism late-stage capitalism summon a stranger to deliver you designer sunglasses. You're in for it. To be fair to me, I didn't really want to go into downtown San Francisco to buy another pair.

Pezitz, where are my glasses? I can't reference any of the means I want to right now Life shows will be fun though like just to give a the frame of reference for like what we're talking about We're like we enjoy them, but like it's also you're tired as fuck afterward. You're drained when we were in Boston. We wanted to go to the What is it the Green Dragon pub or green dragon, dragon, dragon tavern, dragon tavern, which is basically the first bar in America, essentially. Yeah, it's like the founding fathers were there shit like that basically planning the revolution. And it

was just only a couple miles away, a couple blocks away. And we were all just way too wiped out where we're like, Oh, we're gonna go get like a drink there just to say we did because it's super cool. Then like after the show, we all took a vote. Like I just go home. I forgot about, we were all drained. It was always, here's what we're going to do after the live show. That never happens. We just head straight back. What?

Where'd we watch the fight? That's the perfect example. In the hotel lobby on the computer? The home two in suites or whatever. Refreshing every like three. Yeah. The fights where we're loading right with, fuck, okay. On the free, the free computer they had downstairs. Yeah, we had to keep like,

move the mouse every three minutes. That one, the one fans that showed up. That one dude have the most awkward It's just us sitting in a hotel lobby on a computer That's ten years old and we have to refresh the tab every like five minutes Otherwise it resets and he's like are you Are you your donut operator? He's like yeah, and you're branded. What is happening right now? Huh, we're in town doing a live show. Oh, we're watching a fight you want some pizza Yeah, I just sat down and ate pizza and watched a fight with this

It was so random You're gonna pop a Jones It's kind of that moment he's like not to be weird you're real, right? These guys must be struggling From an outside perspective. The AdSense is not doing well. I'm just getting by right now. And then we flew to the next place and fucking rinse repeat.

We have, was it August 15th general sales sells, August 13th, uh, artist pre-sales. So that's when the tickets actually go live, but we're doing an announcement now. So look out for those tickets for, uh, pre-sales and actual sells. We're actually stoked for those. So by the time this gets out, that's what three weeks? Yeah. And these are like the venues are getting a lot bigger really fast. It's kind of scary That biggest venue last time was 1200 seats and now we're at 2000 seat venues at like the Hard Rock in Orlando. I'm super excited for that one

Like there's a lot of these shows. I think that are actually gonna be a lot of fun dude Dude, are we doing the same one in Boston? No. Same venue? Bigger venue? Yup. Oh boy. Yeah.

That's what's crazy. Remember the three stories, Cody? Yeah. Yeah, that's a small venue this time. Oh. Cody likes that. No, that was a wild one because I didn't know there was another story of people looking at it.

Another thousand people up there. Did you find that out like in the show? Yeah, we sat down. Cody, look higher. Ah, fuck. There's a third balcony. I could like, it was like, what is that? Sniper Elite where I could just look in like 3D through your chest and suddenly, da dum

da dum da dum da dum da dum da dum. I do great with crowds. None of us are big crowd people. It's like introverts, I'm like, oh. Do great with crowds But the fact that that was a huge one and that's our tiny one this year the 1200s are small one and then the rest are 15 to 2000 seat venues and then you look at the photos of them. They look so fucking dope, but also Jesus Christ that is the most terrifying thing we will look at I'm like That being said,

we've been looking at ways to try to figure out how to make this tour the best one yet and make it just a good experience for you guys while also not wanting to. We decided we're going to get in really good shape and then get shit faced on all the chefs. Oh God, way less. So when, the amount that we drink is 60 days reducing our alcohol tolerance in 10 days right now. I didn't think about it like that.

I don't like that. Because we started, yeah. 30 minute mark. So we started yesterday, right? Yeah. Yeah, okay. Yep. Yep.

Me and Eli started fucking two months ago. I don't want your shit. Hey, I mean we're about a month and a half Yeah, yeah, yeah, see we're all doing really good. We've been working out you're down to four At time recording. I'm down 14, which is 14 fucking pound. I got fat there for a minute. I don't like that Thank you to the un sub audience for calling me out Totally didn't hurt my feelings and forced me to become a better person. Wait, what? Oh, there was a couple. There was a couple of people in my in my comments or whatever. And it sucks. This fucking sucks.

Right. When people say somebody will do is a dude. You read a comment like homeboys fat bullying works. Yeah. Well, it sucks when like people we're used to getting shit talked. Right. You were on the Internet for a living. You fucking get thick skin to it It sucks when you know it in your heart And you don't like it about yourself and then a stranger says it and just feel my arteries clogged like You're not wrong and I fucking hate it

I like when old old videos of Brandon pop up from years ago. You were both significantly skinnier, but you were also significantly significantly more pale yeah so my running theory is that the tanner you get the fatter you get so like a lot of people were like wow my god you aged so much I'm like yeah it's cuz when I started I was a child He unlocks new slurs. I know what I have to do. I just don't know if I have the strength to do it. I just like pre TRT Cody. That's my favorite. Oh yeah. Fuck you guys. You guys live here with him. I got to see Cody over the course of like two trips go from like It was the doughnut operator twink death Someone said that in the comment really yeah, no Cody's lats absorbed his man bun

This is the shit talking I love on gang episode. Someone did say on Twitter what a brutal twink death that was. Like I don't know how to feel about that. It is fucking night and day though. Would you do a comparison? Damn? I'm less attracted to furries What an odd thing to say You metal gear solids out front Can you please put the exclamation mark above all of our heads on that wide Please put the exclamation mark above all of our heads on that wide. No, but like I look back at old, old videos, they're like, Oh, you're so much skinnier than I'm like, for one.

I was like, yeah, 22 for the other thing is like, I was way more stressed out and I wasn't eating or sleeping. So like I've got visible bags under my eyes and I'm like half living out of my shop because I'm trying to make it on YouTube. Like, yeah, no, I wasn't I wasn't happy I I wasn't doing well back then We're not all Nick What nothing?

I'll let me try long for two million views. Wow. What do you want me that struggle was hard? I want you to keep succeeding because we're proud of our boy. Oh good And now we're just gonna use your face Get views for our own. So this Darwin Awards. I thought it was gonna be Nick with Nick. Nick in the background shooting himself. All right, so this pissed me off.

I was making a joke about how like, oh I need to like, just as a joke, have Nick on a thumbnail, cause like we're joking that your face does well on thumbnails. I'm just gonna do Nick on a thumbnail in because we're joking that your face does well on thumbnails. I'm just going to do Nick on a thumbnail in a video he's not in, just to have mathematical evidence, like just let's see what happens. And I made this joke like two days after I released my stoner 63 video, which you are in.

I literally could have done it there and actually not been clickbait. Like, god damn it. Should have done it. I might go back and change it. Do it. You're in that video for like three minutes. It's fine. It's not clickbait.

No, I know. That's what I'm saying. It was perfect. I just completely, yeah, it slipped my mind. He was there. Use the fuck out of his face on this Darwin stuff that sounds horrible Curious how this is gonna go get like some World War two ones for me World War two Darwin Awards. Yeah, it's called Pearl Harbor. Wait, what actually do you have them pre-selected yet? Oh, yeah Yeah, I've got the whole thing curated What are the good ones?

Or do we talk about it because he has to react. Let me see. Yeah, well, he's got to react to him I gotta talk about it real quick. Okay. Oh god. Let me see what it's like the joke from earlier. Oh The cop one where the dude tases his own hand, oh that's gonna be beautiful And I think the prongs are in too. Yeah, he doesn't want the cop tases his own hand. Oh, that's gonna be beautiful. I think the prongs are in too. Yeah, he does. What? The cop tases his own fucking hand. How the they got a suspect on the ground. But on a real note, there's there's some stuff that I cannot put in the the episode because of YouTube guidelines What's funny is I've shown like obviously like you have to blur it and shit a moment of impact or a moment of death whatever

Where people are getting shot or like getting a limb blown off or something? You have to blur that obviously for you know censorship reasons But anything revolving around a firework YouTube is super strict on that. I can't show any fireworks accidents at all without it getting age restricted. They're way more strict about that. Like I had a Darwin Awards that ended with somebody, I think, dying. And that wasn't what got it.

It was the firework. So like all of, we have to put that in the pepper box cut because we do it uncensored on pepper box, which, you know, viewer discretion advised. It's kind of gnarly sometimes. Shout out to Pepperbox. Yeah. And Pepperbox, we have to save all cause like there's stuff that I think is great for the episode that involves fireworks that we can't use. No shit. I'm still sorry.

My mind is still stuck on human conditioning to for whatever reason do this. How many videos have done that laser? I know you've seen the laser. Is my laser working pull trigger? So I, yeah, the dude in the indoor shooting range. I did that. Wait, what? I got called out for it on YouTube and I'm like, I'm doing that in this episode of Darwin awards as well. I, I, not the laser and pull trigger. Obviously like, obviously trigger discipline, full trigger discipline, everything.

and pull trigger, obviously like not like, trick trigger discipline, full trigger discipline, everything, but. Brain is like, so. Yeah, I just, got a fucking hole in my hand. I did it with a deagle on the Cybertruck episode and I am like full on, you know what, you work with firearms and off, you can get complacent, that's not a good thing and that's not an excuse.

I'll give myself shit when it happens because that, don't do it But yeah, I flat out I flagged myself with a loaded deagle like for a split second showing the flashlight after No, after I loaded it and people were like that better have been edited around and blah blah blah like and not loaded And I'm like, you know what? I'll take my licks. It was You know trigger discipline everything like it was but it wasn't safe in that. Do complacencies wild cause it is.

Happens to all of us. Dude, complacency kills that is overseas. That's what we walked around on night patrols with cigarettes in our mouth. You know why? Cause we just stopped giving a fuck. We were like, man, sniper, I'm not going to feel it. I'm good. Just, you get one of those big Cruella the Valesidra's.

Stingers into the bones, go right in front of it. Just keep walking with the, just kick it to the side. Galaxy brain. So good. That's what I would do. Fuck! Damn it! Get to Toronto's main venues like Budweiser Stage and the new Rogers Stadium with Go Transit.

Well, cause I, I, I at first, cause a lot of people call out dumb shit

that like is actually not unsafe. And like they think, oh, I'm going to be a fucking safety. You know, the trigger. I hate, I do. I just real quick, you cannot do it. And we are conditioned now not to even doing like cool guy action poses with our firearms.

We'll never put our finger in the trigger well just because Internet I have trigger safety on a Dewalt drill Yeah, yes Yes, and now it's like Internet because you'll just get shit on if you actually it's like oh, I'm doing a pose Fucking take your finger off the trigger. I want that Mikhail Kalashnikov trigger confidence. Yep.

But no, I like I'm naturally like I see people like make comments. And I'm just like, you'd be an asshole, like whatever. And then I actually looked at the timestamp just out of curiosity. I was like, Oh, no. Oh, fuck. Oh, yeah. Nope. Oh, how was that? I felt about that tall because I'm like I'm the internet gun safety guy and like I take that shit very seriously because this is my fucking profession and

You know, that's what I'm saying. Like nobody's above it. Nobody's fucking perfect. All you can do is learn from it and realize like that's why He beat the Lance That's why Delance texts me about her job. Makes so much more sense. You're fired. But no, no, it like, I mean it's... Rinnan's like, wait. This is his part. Oh, I text him about it immediately after. I was like, we uh, we fucked up. But yeah, no, it really is a learning experience too, because you're like, oh shit.

Like I thought. That like I beat it beat in those instincts by now. And like that's clearly like again complacency complacency kills like. You can't you can't sleep on that shit. Dude, I've had a man. This was 2000. This is right before I moved to LA. I remember I grabbed a PPX PPQ PPQ at that time.

It was like, Oh yeah. Walter PPQ. And I was like, Oh my God. And I always unload my gun like always every time, but uh, Ryan's mom said something and she was like, whoa. And I was like, oh no, it's unloaded, but still muscle reflex. I dropped Mac. I was like, see, and I racked it round fella. I was like, holy shit. And that still terrified. I don't know why I never pointed did anything like that, but still in my head I was like, I clear my gun every fucking time.

There's no way around is going to be in this click round. Still fell. I was like, ha, that's why I don't pull a trigger until I double check, triple checked. Yep. Yeah, I will hand it. I mean, we do it all the time. Yeah, like we're on set, dude. Yeah. Clear handoff clear. Yep. Go down a line of everyone checking the barrel to make sure it's clear.

Especially when you're talking about like, let's say like a tiny, I don't think we had any real guns on tiny guns, but like that's sort of situation where we're like, all right, we're gonna be muzzle sweeping people and stuff. You know, obviously trigger discipline is gonna be important. And like you never actually aim at a person and stuff like that.

But like, we wanna be sure everybody on set feels comfortable. Like there is no ammunition on set. Everybody checks that chamber. Everybody feels comfortable. Nobody there is no ammunition on set. Everybody checks that chamber. Everybody feels comfortable. Nobody gets Alec Baldwin. Which is wild. That's, that's one of those things where it's like, how the fuck did that happen? How did that get to that actor's hand?

And then the actor not go like, what was, I finally heard the actual like explanation of that story, how like the armor on set Went and like ran out of blanks or something. So he just went to the gun store and Bought actual ammunition he pulled the bullets Whoever the armor it was it was the it was the from the prop director or whatever Yeah, it was a female who is like the daughter of like a Hollywood Gunplay legend. Okay, like he was like a really well-known dude and was like trying to pass down the trade to his daughter and That went swimmingly. She like just went and like bought normal ammunition and just pulled the bullet and

Then yeah, I don't know something went wrong. I thought they didn't pull all of them I guess didn't they go shooting the night before and they just. There were people that were like quitting from that movie set because they were there. And this is before anything happened. They were quitting because they're like, I've never seen such unsafe conditions. There are people on set that are going plinking cans and shit

with live ammunition with the prop guns. Which is wild because a lot of the times, guess what you don't do. Prop guns don't fire fucking period. Well, especially, well, I mean, prop guns just means like property of the studio. So like some can, but like the, the idea that you're going to go out there and especially on a set where you have dummy rounds. Intermingle ammo and everything else.

Blank guns have a, their barrel is completely different. So you get the muzzle flash, you get all of that, but they can only fire blanks to use those which could fire real bullets and then just be like, oh, we went planking the night before and then no one took the ammo out. And depending on the caliber, like certain ones have like pins in the barrel where like a live, uh, like live ammunition won't chamber. Yeah. Like you can literally only accept blanks.

Like it will not physically fire a round if you don't have a blank in it. Like that's the safe way to do it. That's still wild. I mean, we're still safe when we're shooting dildos at the 4th of July, you know? Yeah, yeah. I made sure to take the blanks out and confirm with Brandon.

Blanks, blanks, blanks, okay. Dildo, dildo, dildo. Dildo, yeah. Penis, okay. Boom pow. Just guys being guys. Just guys being dudes. And then lit.

What? They buy a fuck ton of fireworks and there is no buildup to it. It's just, let's do the grand finale. Good. And they lit all the fireworks at the same time and the neighborhood just got done. It's good enough. Just lit up the entire neighborhood with an awesome show.

Neighbors start coming out to like, what the fuck? Good. It's supposed to be done. And then everyone claps. I was like, you're one to talk to him in a commando. We went over this in the beginning. I enjoyed it. It was a fucking to him in a commando. We went over this Fucking black

I do solution I'm on your side with this light them all at once and get this shit over with. Oh, yeah, just throw them in a bonfire Blast we have a range day you guys solidified that are you allowed to talk? We could talk about a little bit. Yeah, not the date. Yeah. Yeah. Blamember the 14th. Yeah, right. Yeah, we're going to do range day at Staccato Ranch. What are they called? Staccato Vegas. Staccato Vegas. But it's got a name. It used to be Prairie Fire. Yeah. So Staccato bought it out and now they're trying to get some attention on it and whatnot. So big shout outs to them. We appreciate it, because they said, basically, if you guys want to do this out here,

you can do whatever you want. You want to shoot machine guns out of helicopters. You want to blow up cars. You can do whatever the fuck you want out here. So we're going to have our little creator range day out there this year. And then shout out to Circa for blocking off a bunch of rooms and giving us discounts on them. They're cool as shit. It It's gonna be fun to have a like an official like partner like that of that scale who like looks at

The gun industry and what we're trying to do out there and just goes yeah, fuck it. We'll help you. That's cool That's really nice. These dudes are gonna get drunk. It's been so much money on gambling. We will yeah. Oh, I know our crew Shop show every year That trip I learned I like blackjack. Yeah That was fun. We had a me Canyon out there with us accidentally To me just out there again. Yeah, we text him. We said come to Vegas coward and he said I'm at the Circo. Where are you? Like are you fucking with me? He was working on some of his projects out there, but yeah, he just randomly can he was just out in Vegas at the same hotel He's there a lot

He's no way he's he doesn't have a problem He's got an answer that motherfuckers good at gambling Oh, yeah, he's incredibly good at gambling. He plays Bacharot, right?

It's impressive He was like correcting the dealer they follow like the dealers will follow him or the security cuz they're like

Yeah, watch it neither have mm-hmm Who's in the Formula one, you watched it, neither have. No, not yet. Who's in the, uh, yeah. It's a good movie. Brad Pitt and all the formula one drivers. Brad Pitt and what's the other guy heavier or what's this fucking hobby?

Okay. Yeah. It is a very expensive movie. They made their money back already, but they spent two to 300 million because they filmed during formula one races. Formula one's the one sport they're like, we don't need the marketing, but we'll let you shoot on and we're going to charge you for it. Costs 200 to 300 million, but probably one of the best movies of the year.

Yeah, it was good. Like it's fucking good. If you look at rotten tomato Tomato or anything is 95%. And I saw Critical Drinker was was all over it. That's which that's usually a good litmus test. Dude, it's just fucking good. It's it's just good. It's fun. It is. I have no way to explain that other than that. It's just a good ass movie. You got to watch a habit training

dragon. Also good. It's just a good ass movie you got to watch a happy train a dragon mm-hmm also good They literally just recreated how to train your dragon, but with real people and it did great It was weird crazy took a successful movie and then didn't change it like shot or shot in a while who plays in my character I don't know his name. They have Joe raw butler who did the original Butler is incredible as the dad Viking. It's so good Same voice actor and then he was like, oh, yeah, I'll do it again But they did shot for shot of the original and like and let's just make it real actors Fucking slayed. That's good fucking slate that one. I'm excited to see I'm like, okay. Let's do this. Let's fucking do this

What are you guys been doing outside that expedition 33? Yes haven't been we've never talked about that on the podcast But we got into that fucking game Cody didn't No, I got mad at the first hard guy to fight and quit Put an hour into it. Well, you were like, oh no, I was figuring I'd go back I know you can't beat him. Then I was like what? Yeah, you know, I was figuring I'd go back. I know you can't beat him then I was like what? Yeah, you can Cuz I bought it to little baby wage quit Yes

There's like you can kill him again. You just have to never get hit by that boss. Meanwhile, my experience was oh that guy looks strong as fuck It just never fought him. I went back later and fought him. Yep. And then you fucking shit on him. If you guys out if you have not played Expedition 33 is probably a game of the year easy and one of the funnest games. I don't like turn-based combat and like you got me into it. The story is so good it makes up for the fact that I don't like the play style. It's really good. And then it gets so deep in the mechanics where you just be like, what the fuck is this? I don't understand. You will not know what you're doing

for the first 30 hours of the game, which kind of- Oh, fuck life. Dude, yes. Brandon was texting me, he's like, wait, I just found out about this system. And my response was like, how the fuck are you this far not understanding that you can do that? He's like, I have no idea.

Oh yeah. Then he's like, man, this game's way easier now. I have no idea. Oh, yeah, did he's like man. This game is way easier now like More easy. It's like being like a year into driving a car and you're like, did you know you have multiple gears? Fucking hard as shit, but this story does not hold your hand and it is But this story does not hold your hand and it is. It'll make you feel not good, but it'll make you feel. No, you beat that game and you're just sad. Yeah.

Like the entire time. Great. There's a wait to play it. There's a better ending. It's not a good ending, but it's a better one. He texted me. He was like, you guys are not selling me on this. Dude, it's really good. It's like it's I would 10 of 10.

I sound like a BMW car salesman. Nick, what's the next big history thing you're doing? You just did the video on Saipan. Yeah, I did that. I'm not sure yet. I got a bunch of ones loaded up that I'm thinking about doing. I haven't finished reading all the books yet to decide which one I'm most excited about. I got Evans Carlson. He's on my list. So there's two Marine Raider battalions in World War II. The first one's like famous for being Edson's Raiders and Edson is

great leader nothing bad about the guy, but he's very he's very like conventional and Evans Carlson on the flip side was very unorthodox So Evans Carlson actually went over to China pre World War two and was fighting with communist guerrillas against the Japanese Yeah, and he's like we got to fucking learn how to fight like these guys pre-World War II and was fighting with communist guerrillas against the Japanese. Yeah. And he's like, we gotta fuckin' learn how to fight like these guys. He's like, they eat like half a cup of fuckin' rice and just go fuckin' shit on people with guerrilla warfare tactics. So he learned all about guerrilla warfare and then he-

Wait, this is pre-World War II? This is, yeah, pre-World War II we had guys going over into China and helping. So like the Flying Tigers we sent over there to help China fight Japan Prior to America being involved. It's just like there's a shitload of American volunteers in Ukraine before World War three breaks out exactly same concept So he was over there fighting with the Chinese guerrillas and then he comes back and like through this weird turn of events He ends up being homies with FDR son so he like has a direct line to the president and he ends up like pitching the

idea of like, I learned all these guerrilla warfare tactics, like we need to be able to do this, let me build a unit out of this. And like, that's kind of like the origin story of the Marine Raiders. So he's in charge of the second Marine Raiders, and they go out and he just builds this fucking monster force. And he's actually the first dude that developed modern fire teams So like the the fire team concept that we use now where you have yeah, yeah, well the Marines do three

So you've got three fire teams and then each one's got the heavy machine I so like instead of sending out like a bunch of dudes with M1 grants, he had three fire teams with a Browning. Yeah, it was two machine guns and two riflemen. And it just had way more firepower than it's still the tactic. I'm probably butchering this because I know. I mean, so you're still right. So now you have a platoon element, which is a machine gun team or squad and then three rifle squads.

But each squad will then have one to two forty nine machine gun team or squad and then three rifle squads but each squad will then have one to 249 machine gun team is the 240s so still keeping that concept yeah so I mean it's literally the concept that we still use today and like he pioneered that entire thing and he just goes over in World War two and fucks shit up the entire time did he look wait did he start adopting that because of the Chinese Japanese? That was like part of it. They he just wanted more firepower because they were a small unit doing small unit guerrilla tactics.

And he's like, I don't have these big formations for a lion. I just need smaller units with more fucking firepower. And they were just shit wrecking everybody over in the Pacific. So wild. Yep. That's one that's on the list. And then I got a Robert Smalls. First, I believe he was the first black naval captain, literally a slave in Charleston, South Carolina.

And that's like one of the major ports for the Confederacy. I think Charleston, right? Yeah. Yeah. So Charleston, South Carolina is like one of the most main most important ports for the Confederacy. And he was a ship pilot. Basically, he was a slave. The guy that owned and basically rented him out to pilot boats. And he was piloting a newer-ish boat called the Planter. And at some point, he'd been saving money

and doing everything he could. He was going to buy his and his wife and his kids freedom and then eventually he gets to the point like the Civil War is progressing and he's like Fuck it just gets him and his buddies and they're like we're gonna fucking steal the boat and drive it in drive it into the Union blockade and turn the ship over and They end up stealing this boat and they they fucking make it they pretend to be white officers He dresses up in the white officers they fucking make it. They pretend to be white officers.

He dresses up in the white officer's uniform and does like all the signal. He knows how to do everything because he's the one that was actually piloting the ship. Did he do like white face? No. It was dark out. I was like, hey.

Gee golly, this is great. Look at this boat. So he ends up, he turns this ship over to the union and then like series of events happens. He ends up being a commissioned officer in the US Navy and then takes the planter back out and he ends up being like 17 naval engagements all kinds of cool shit and The funny thing is he does the most gangster fucking thing on the planet. So Civil War ends He's like he's got some money now. He's not super rich, but like he's got a decent amount of money

He got a he got it like a big reward for turning over the planter and then he was making money as an officer He's her inch. Yeah So he goes back to Charleston where he's from buys his owner's house and Gets to live there after the fact Jesus. Okay. So this is like in Charleston proper. I believe so Can you still visit this house? Yes, that's it's like Yeah, it's like a historical landmark now. We've and we've got it. We've got to do that He goes on pretty sure he goes on to be a senator. No shit

Yeah so like it's like a historical landmark like literally runaway slaves steals a confederate ship turns it over the Union becomes a captain because He was super valuable because he knew everything about Charleston Harbor Like he knew where all the shit was. So he like helped him with intelligence, super successful military career becomes a Senator buys the house that his previous owner owned. Like it's just like the ultimate fucking come back story. What time 1860, 70, 70 is probably right. Static pure curiosity. That's fucking wild and awesome at the same time. That is it. I like that

character development of hey You just keep kicking ass and taking names Never quit. Sorry. He was a representative Even still like served five terms in the US House representing South Carolina during Reconstruction, from 1875 to 1879, and then again in 1882 to 1883, and then in 84 to 87. That goes hard as fuck.

What did he do with that family? Did he just get them out? Yeah, so all of his buddies that like cooked up this idea It was literally like the the dudes knew what was going on and they didn't even tell their wiser kids. They're like, hey Tonight at midnight meet us here and like got all their kids on board So like that's like the oh shit moment of like they catch them. They're gonna kill him You know what I mean? So it's like You're dead with the kids. That's like the ultimate fucking gamble of like all right. We're fucking running for it

That's so it's fucking crazy That's stress level yeah Because I always say like doing war but doing war and then you're protecting your family or any of that right aspect of it That is fucking terrifying or like oh fuck okay here, and now you're how many I mean big families at that time All escaping you know like hey get in the boat. I have to play cool. Hey, we're just, I guarantee you didn't say what was going on. Oh no. You're just like, Hey, we're going for a boat ride. Hey, just go in there. Stay quiet. Let's go. Then you get up top deck and you're like, okay, what the we do now? Okay.

Here's the white paint. I still they did that 100% in my Lord, they painted their faces white. Nick, do you know for a fact they didn't? I guess they didn't. Yes. I mean, I would if I fucking go that way. I'm like, fuck it. I don't know. They're going towards the did they actually signals like hey this or I would rather just be like a black dude No, like yo Okay, they're definitely coming this way and it's okay How do you know how's your ratio a doing? Oh, they like raised a white flag as they approached the Union blockade and everything

Yeah, but like they had to slip past because like Charleston Harbor was guarded by like like shore guns and everything Oh, yeah so like they had to slip past the shore guns and there was like, there's all protocol about how like, you're supposed to like sound the horn and like do this signal and this wave and all this bullshit. But then he knew all that. Yeah, he knew all that.

So he was able to slip through. That's crazy. That's fucking gangster. Was that a lot of really cool stories. Whenever I get around to it. Yeah, dude, there's so many fucking cool stories. War was like it was it was really there's the shit you learn in school And then there's like the spy versus spy shit that nobody talks about. Yeah, that's just it's super neat. I Mean shit even still Charleston Harbor like the fucking the Hunley

The the the CSS only do you know the story? No. It was the first ever, I think on the planet, it was the first ever successful sinking of an enemy vessel from a submarine. Oh, okay. Yeah. So is that like the little three person submarines they had? I think the finished model was seven,

but yeah, it was a seven person where they're all just like hunched over and whatnot, running the hand crank to work the propeller and all that she had all the bike faster yeah straight up it's gnarly but they actually they ended up recovering that and now it's in Charleston Cinemuseum I'd love to do that while we're that's cool the ship it's fucking it's really cool it's really cool and they they confirmed all sorts of like real stories from it too when they found the because they didn't survive it They don't really know what happened, but they they were lost to see after they sank. I

Don't remember the name of the ship, but it was one of the blockading vessels They successfully attacked it. They signaled they were coming back to harbor and then the the ship was lost So the submarine was was lost and they found it like I don't know like 2004 some shit like that Civil warships crazy because like we were at we were at that furniture furniture museum me and Ethan doing that habitually that pepper box exclusive and like the furniture museum guys like yeah so this rocking chair it had like a it was like a wooden rocking chair but like the ass in the back where you actually sit and rest had that like woven wicker shit you know, I'm

talking about and he's like, yeah, so that's a Lincoln stitch. And he goes on to explain, like, it was very controversial to have in Texas because it was like Lincoln's favorite type of fucking chair. So if you like had that type of chair, you were showing support toward towards Lincoln in the South. So like people, you wanted your ass to become. It was like a political statement to have a chair with like this wicker design or whatever. And it was like the 1863 version of the Bud Light Controversy. It was the MAGA hat of its day. Like essentially like it was like the highly controversial item is crazy.

And he's like, yeah, so the owner of that chair actually his two sons, because this was Texas, they were getting conscripted into the Confederate military and they didn't support it. So they ran off and as they were trying to like escape to a northern state, they got killed by Confederate soldiers. It was like all from like this one chair. I was like, holy shit. I won't be at the wrong moment, which is like, I would give anything to just go back in time

and just see what Twitter would have been like during the Civil War or World War II. Again, that's one of my favorite bits that Jack Mandeville has, or he just reads his, I think it's his great-great-grandfather's letters, like his war correspondence to home versus his tweets in 2020. You heard this past? Yes. He did it on the podcast one time which was it Jackson Which one actually created a newspaper to talk shit to his opponents one of the ogs created an entire newspaper

Organization Cassius Clay, but I don't think that's who you're talking about No, no, this is like one of the ogs like Jackson or Andrew Jackson or like yeah Oh, yeah, like one of the original like three presidents was like yeah I'm gonna do this to talk shit on the other individuals because fuck them That's why Jack always puts like oh if you don't think they would be talking shit on Twitter fuck off these guys Created newspapers in order to talk on popular opinion. I want to go back to when politicians fought each other I didn't Parliament so I wanted to bring this up because Creek cast brought it up I think on like the two episodes ago or at least the time recording they brought up the caning of Charles Sumner which is one of

my favorite fucking topics to talk about I don't know let's go the the caning of Charles Sumner basically it was it was in the heat of like the pre Civil War discourse between the North South pro discourse between the north-south pro-slave anti-slave like kind of debacle and There was I can't remember his name the the guy who actually did the caning but he basically, there was this guy Charles Sumner who was talking mad shit and Basically he like it was it was the typical like he was talking shit about this guy, this guy was talking shit about him, blah blah. I think it was Stevens or something like that.

But either way, Charles Sumner, and this is on the floor of Congress, Charles Sumner ends up talking shit and, like, disparaging the guy's brother and making fun of his speech impediment. It's like he's making fun of his brother's disability. And that was where the honor code took over and went over the line. And this dude goes to the floor of Congress after the session is done with a cane, beats the fucking shit out of him to the degree he is bloody and hiding under his desk and beats him so hard that he snaps his cane in half and then starts beating him with the top end of the cane. Meanwhile, his fucking homie, his ride or die, another congressman is there with a fucking pistol on the floor of Congress saying, let it happen. Boys will be boys. Like that sort of shit Let this fucking happen And so it happens and like this does not help the pre civil war tensions by any means

But yeah, the guy gets beaten within a fucking inch of his life and still to this day in Charleston I believe they have that cane on display Holy shit, but like nobody talks about this but politics used to be fun. Yeah Yeah, whoever says violence isn't the answers never opened any history book ever Holy shit. But like nobody talks about this, but politics used to be fun. Yeah. Yeah. Whoever says violence isn't the answer has never opened any history book ever. It's almost always the answer. Pretty much. Solves lots of problems.

Sam. Holy shit. Yeah. If you open a history book, it's not the answer. It's the question. The answer is yes. Just imagine that day at the office, like, man, you got home. You're like, dude, I watched a man get cained almost to death.

What? Why didn't anyone stop it? Hear me out. If that was happening today, you could sell out. You could sell subscriptions to C-SPAN. Oh dude, that live stream would go hard as shit. I watched those live streams. white by C-spec I would do some scritches not get ads the political the political climate would get way different

I had to come there's a lot of UFC fighters and former boxers getting elected to Congress right now. I Wanted to ask about the spy museum you guys did that we didn't get to check it out How was that that's cool? They had a bunch of cool shit in there. What was like? Oh, I'm sorry I just looked up the Wikipedia because I'm looking for the guy's name But I look up the Wikipedia for Charles Sumner the number one topic under it is caning It's like early life. Oh, I love caning Yeah, it was a sorry representative Preston Brooks Yeah, but anyway, I'm so much worse spy museum getting your ass beat sucks getting your ass beat by a guy named Preston

It's embarrassing creating a phrase They had to build a word what happened to you that's fucking embarrassing your face pops up Even if like even if your constituents believe in everything that you stood for Damn he said he was gonna fight for us He can't fight He can't fight. Did that guy get his ass beat? He's like, why don't you do anything?

But he had my back. I haven't even considered the fact he got his ass what by a guy that had a cane. Oh my God. Presumably he needed it. I mean, I don't think it would be a pimp cane. He's balancing. Okay. You say that.

I went to the Mob Museum when we were in Vegas and they in the bottom They've got this like prohibition era like speakeasy And of course I go to the museum because I'm fucking history buff whatever but I you heard that booze there Don't fucking lie to me There's booze everywhere in Vegas the taco buff alcoholic the Taco Bell has no excuse anyway Anyway, they have a real thing. This is a museum. But on the wall, they have like a prohibition era cane that the pop the top pops off.

And it's a I don't know what you call that. Like a beaker. It's a beaker that's filled with booze and a little shot glass that's like holds like four shots. Fucking awesome. Dudes are just rolling around with like an incognito flash but now they are the spy museum had a had like my favorite spy weapon of all time well not my favorite but like one of the cooler ways to kill somebody I think was a Russians that did

it they had a it was an umbrella is either an umbrella or cane I think was an umbrella and like the umbrella had a like a button on top and then the tip of the umbrella was like a metal pointy one and they would just roll up and like Poke you with the umbrella in your thigh and have like a little co2 cartridge in there and just injected a poison pellet Into your thigh and then you die of a heart attack two days later Yeah, I remember that story crazy shit. There was the more popular story. The guy goes, they do it to the guy at the bus stop in the morning, he goes to work and he's like,

man, I'm not feeling well, goes home, dies. Yep. Yeah, they had all kinds of cool shit. They had one of the inflatable tanks from the ghost army. Oh, that's cool. From Patton's ghost army. Oh no shit. Yeah, they had one of those there.

Yeah. Was it inflating? Yeah. It was set up, it was all blown up and everything. It was cool as shit. Just in case people do not know why they had inflatable tanks. It was literally for looks because... Yeah, no. So like right where the English Channel is, kind of like think of the movie like Dunkirk. Like it's just the shortest distance to gap between the UK and like you know occupied France. Patton

had just gotten in trouble for like flapping a guy with PTSD. So he was in like political heat. But the course I didn't even know about that. Patton got in trouble because like he got in a shit ton of trouble, got like relieved to command temporarily because he was like in a medic station. There was a dude with fucking shell shock. And he like fucking bitch slaps him and threatens to kill him because he thinks he's like kidding and he like gotten a fuck ton of heat for it.

So he got yanked for a while during World War II and it was during that period the Germans like weren't believing it. They're like you pulled your best fighting general because he bitch slapped a soldier get the fuck out of here we don't believe a word you're saying. So they decided to take advantage of it and they basically created this gigantic Psyop they had like 10,000 inflatable tanks inflatable trucks They had gigantic loudspeakers to project the sound of like heavy moving equipment and all this shit They had like fucking prop people and that they made it look like from an aerial Reconnaissance view of photos in World War two it looked real

So they just made it look like they were amassing this giant invasion force across the English Channel. So that's like part of the setup that like softened everything up for D-Day because a bunch of the Germans were like moving a bunch of their shit up there where they thought the main invasion force was coming and they're thinking like, oh, this is this is Patton's army. This is why they took Patton out of the field was to, you know, like spearhead this mainland invasion. And that was all bullshit you know like spearhead this mainland invasion and That was all bullshit, and they just created this entire thing And then they invaded where we invaded at D-Day over at Normandy soften up the lines right out of the gate

I never knew that that Patton got pulled off because he slapped which at that time PTSD wasn't a thing until what? Yeah, well it wasn't a known. Yeah, it wasn't a known thing sorry a thing until what? 70s? Yeah, it wasn't a known thing. Sorry, it wasn't a known thing. In 1970s, some asshole invented PTSD. Do those old shell shock videos? Oh yeah. They didn't know what the fuck they called it shell shock. Well, this is like, cause I was thinking about that a lot. Cause like, I don't think I've never heard or like seen any GWAT veterans with like obviously PTSD, but like the degree of shell shock you see in those old World War Two videos where they're just like completely mentally broken like, yeah, crazy broken. I'm like, I'm sure it happens.

But I always thought that's the difference because at this time you are volunteering to serve. So you already have that kind of mindset is like, oh, I want to do this. Okay, this sounds cool. Back in World War One. It is. oh, hey, don't give a fuck about your beliefs. Getting the Model T. Yeah. And then you're thrown in that.

And then you have a softer human thrown into war. I also think you have an issue of scale, too. Where like, if you look at the amount of people in GWAT, like I think total GWAT deaths. 7,000. Yeah, it's like 7,000-ish, 7,000 change. But like World War I, you're looking at millions. So, like, I don't know.

They're looking at the worst examples to film and shit. Yes, but here's my theory. My theory is because of TV. Like, imagine being a kid in World War II. You grew up on a farm in Nebraska. You know, one motherfucker that's got a car your whole life. Fast forward the first time you see a plane, you're fucking jumping out of it. You know what I mean? And it's like, and so like, hey, they had, they had no idea what they were even getting into.

Just getting thrown into it. Like, imagine participating in D-Day and you've never seen Saving Private Ryan. What the fuck? You've never seen more than fuck it. You've never seen a black man. You've never, yeah, you've never seen combat. You've never seen any of this shit on TV. Like you don't even know what you think you should expect from a Hollywood perspective and then like the fuck you don't even know what movies are. Yeah, a majority of the time you've never even seen a black and white movie. Yeah, especially well I mean you're talking about World War One was where it was so pronounced that the shell shock of that like you had no frame of reference even

World War Two movies weren't well, they were way more common. Yeah, but still, I mean, you had like Wizard of Oz was already but then like, I also think that's why like the older generation of veterans like, they've gotten progressively more vocal about their experiences as time has gone on. But like, imagine being a veteran from World War II coming home. What was your war experience like?

And then trying to articulate what the fuck D-Day was like to somebody that's never seen a movie, like Saving Private Ryan or see, there was fucking 3000 planes and we were all jumping out of them with bullets and explosions going off near us and you're explaining this to some farmer In Nebraska, that's never seen a gun bigger than a 12-gauge. It's like Hey, how do you how the fuck do you articulate and relate that to somebody? You know what?

I'm just not fucking talking about this actually So Nick says modern veterans are privileged Like Privilege fucks. There's some degree of like normal people understand more than they did at that point in time, certainly. And there's still assholes about it. Well, it's like it's it's Frogan has entered the chat.

The the idea it was never written about of PTSD or that the horrific side of war back in the day for like the Roman era. And then one of the accounts was like, oh, well, the soldiers had a decompression period because they'd walk back from battle. Exactly. So you decompress with your buddies. You talked about experiences. So the time you got back home, it wasn't such a problem or at least you got to discuss it. It's one of those discussions that happened with oh shit why didn't they write about PTSD or the horrors of war as much as relevant times.

I was like oh that makes sense because here you're just I was literally, Hey, we cleaned our equipment. We flew two days and then I had a week off, but man that, and there was a wild change for me. Cause I remember getting in my vehicle, driving back to base and I freaked out cause I was like, fuck, I don't have my rifle. This is my civilian car. And I was driving to work, but I was so ingrained to have my weapon on me for 15 months straight when I didn't have it I flip shit for a sec. I was like, oh, oh, yeah. Oh fuck. I'm good. I'm good trash In a similar really fast in a similar sense like Cody with you like being a cop for a while

like how many times you in a situation like, you know very soon after where you're like Almost like instinctively going for a handgun that isn't there on a duty belt. Oh yeah, after working 12 hour shifts, especially going into a weekend, maybe even working through my weekend, then you get off for a couple days. Just like, oh fuck, yeah okay, it's not there, yeah I'm good. Yeah. Dude, I never thought about that as a World War I, World War II that you're just throwing into fucking combat. Yeah.

First time you see a plane, you're jumping out of it. Three months later, you're fucking jumping into D-Day. And again, you didn't volunteer. I mean, that's why I like it just had to been crazy. And it's kind of like what we talked about when Terry was on the podcast about how like he went through buds in like 1991. And he's like, I had no fucking idea what I was getting into. He's like, I didn't know what a Navy SEAL was. He's like, I had no concept of like, this is hard. He's like, I had no concept of like, this is hard.

He's like, I thought if I failed this, I was a pussy. Cause I, this was, this is basic training 2.0 to me going through buds. So it's just weird versus like now everybody's seen making the cut. Everybody's seen documentaries and movies about Navy SEALs. Like you have such a more clear idea of how hard this is. Fuck.

It's like, I just, I I looked up first commercial flight was 1914. You know, the Wright brothers, I think was 1903. But the first commercial flight, like the first actual, like real, like plane taking off, whatever 1914. 30 years later, you are jumping out of one in combat. That's fucking crazy. Oh, yeah. And I mean, for 50 was it 50 cents extra or $2 for what combat? Oh, yeah.

It was like not a lot of money, but they got jump. Yeah. Jump. It was like an extra $2 a month, I think, or $8. Don't spend it all in one place. And people literally signed up just because of that. Like, yeah, what's back when our dollar was worth something? Still jumping out of my back.

I was backed by gold. That's crazy. Before that disappeared, which we can talk about on the after show for the next 10 minutes after Cody closes this out. Bye everyone.
