Starting point is 00:00:51 We decided that we really liked the company So we bought in We killed Eric Hostel takeover We worked for months on all of these flavors too Yeah, so we're launching two new flavors. Each of them have 100 milligrams of caffeine apiece, and we're coming out with Cherry Lime Landmine,
Starting point is 00:01:06 and then Brandon has his famous mixer, Atomic Cola, which goes great with Jack, I'm told. That is, of course, my drink of choice, and now I get to be hydrated and drunk and energized. Now, like everything, when we launch a company or start a new business, we try to do as much as possible for all of you. No exception.
Starting point is 00:01:25 So when you buy a case of the new echelon flavors, they are normally going to be $3 a can or $36 a case, but for the first 2,500 people that sign up for a subscription, getting two cases, not only are you going to get free shipping, which shipping cases of energy drinks is expensive, you're also going to get a huge discount, and those are going to cost $58.30. You're saving 30% overall if you're the first $2,500 to purchase. You get that discount forever, as long as you keep your subscription active. You are constantly going to get free shipping and a huge discount. If you're not one of the first, 2,500 people, we're going to keep the sale going

And if you don't like doing subscriptions or you don't like saving money, for whatever reason, you can still do a one-time order. There's still gonna be $3 a can.

Starting point is 00:02:47 Everybody that makes a purchase, no matter what it is, is going to get one entry. But if you do a subscription pack, you're also going to get an additional entry. So that counts as two. You're getting two entries if you subscribe. We're going to fly you out to him hang out and unsubble. live show. They are debauchous. Yes. I'm going to say the N-word. I hope not.
Starting point is 00:03:04 Everyone's going to get a swag pack, but if you are the lucky first 2,500, you get a couple more cool things. Custom echelon challenge coin. Custom echelon patches. And a pepperbox badge and a free month of pepper box. If you are part of the first 48, you still get the free month of pepperbox, the pepper box emoji, the pepper box badge, and also the patch. Seriously, thank you for letting us have this possibility to do something like this. And thank you, Eschelon, for giving us a chance to do something like this. Without all of you, none of this would be possible. We work for you at the end of the day, and we are so fucking thankful for this opportunity. Let's go ahead and go back to the episode before Eli cries. Community. Community. We haven't been recording this
Starting point is 00:03:48 whole time. No. We just did two hours. I know. I made a mistake. Just play it off like we haven't been recording the entire time. All right. Ready? Three, two, one. Ooh. What's that? Wait, I can't say it.
Starting point is 00:04:07 Who's going to start it this time? Hi, everyone. On subscribe podcast here, I'm joined today by Eli Double Tab. Nick the Fat Electrician, myself, Brennan Herrera, and Nico Ortiz. Hi. Our beautiful boys. What's up, bitches? What?
Starting point is 00:04:22 Nick. You haven't been here like a hundred. episodes. Fuckhead. I know. I'd be living in different places, but I live here now, so we're good. Multiple shot shows in between unsub appearances is unacceptable. I showed up. I just wasn't on camera. I supported still. You did. Yeah. It's been a long time, though. It's been a lot. Nico ain't a fan of the flying the planes. Uh-uh. I forgot about that. Not hell no. Why do you think he drove his car here? Because I figured he needed his car. No. That too, but yes. Yes. I was like, you know what? I'll
Starting point is 00:04:53 just drive here. It's better. Left my other car here for like, God knows how long. But yeah. No flying. No thanks. I'm good. I always forget that. And then I remember, I'm like, oh yeah, that's why he never visits. It's the death. I'm like, I'm good. I don't need to fly anywhere ever again anymore. I just stay at my house at this point. But now you guys are like a 30 minute drive away. So this is fantastic. And we made you fly anyways. We drove him to San Antonio Airport. I got an Uber picking you up helicopter lands, fly crazy.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Do helicopters walk with you? No, isn't that weird? I love helicopters. I think it's so much better and funner. Yeah, and more dangerous. Yeah, the thing that beats up air in order to stay floating.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Dude, okay, you know what the main thing probably is? I just don't want to fall out the sky for two minutes knowing I'm going to die. Ah! Fuck! Come on!
Starting point is 00:05:52 Like, no. It's, oh, shit, what the f-done? Like, that's nice. You're already given the box of panic attack. I know, this guy's really like. This is why he hasn't been here in a while. But, yeah. He would be screaming at a time and time.
Starting point is 00:06:06 I'd be so annoyed. I'd be like, dude, we're going to dice. Please. My last two minutes, I don't want to hear you screaming at the top of your fucking ones. I'd be like them fix the plane, dude. Like, I'm going to make sure you were the first person on this plane to die. And people are like, oh, well, if you're that word, you can like go and get like you're like you know skydiving license and I'm like that's great but if you go
Starting point is 00:06:26 through TSA with that thing one I'm gonna look like a terrorist two I can do that but I don't know how to repack a shoot I don't want to repack a shoot I can go through it Niko walks and wait stop D.B Cooper give you I was trying to do that fuck is you talking you all of your nervous just pack a parachute as you're because then I won't be afraid to get on the plane Nick I understand where you're coming from I'm saying what psychopath gave you that advice like that would be. It was actually my idea and then everyone agreed
Starting point is 00:06:58 with me, okay? Did they agree with you before or after they found out that like even D.B. Cooper probably didn't survive jumping out of a fucking commercial airline with a parachute. At least I have an option. During this plane wrecking, you're going to be like, okay, we'll just unbuckle. We'll walk to the back. It's going to be smooth
Starting point is 00:07:14 sailing. Not violent turbulent smashed around. You're going to open that back door and be like, okay. And then you're going to going to hit the wing die with something to the engine I jump out hit the wing my shoe just
Starting point is 00:07:30 floods it and I'm like oh god damn it now you're just dragged down and you're caught on the wing I'm just hitting the plane just flat the ironic part is that the plane would have been fine
Starting point is 00:07:42 until his body hit the wing they're like oh we regain stability oh god oh shit no my plan is I was like you know what maybe I'll buy like a nice little plane, and then I'll just have parachutes on it, and then I won't give a
Starting point is 00:07:56 shit. That's a good idea. No, they don't like my idea. Okay, I'm going to go fuck myself. It's a great idea, Dingo. Yeah, great idea. I will pay money to try to see you bring a parachute in as your carry on. Well, so I've thought about this. Is that a loud?
Starting point is 00:08:12 Yes, it is. Yeah, you get a free cavity search with every one. Pretty much. The problem is that you can do that, but the T.S. can open the shoot. They can inspect it and do all of that shit. And I was like, well, if you hate me and you want to kill me and you like take little scissors and do whatever to me. Like, I don't want to repack it in the airport either. I don't even know if I could. That would be fucking hilarious. What did you do to the TSA? Pay no attention to the man repacking his parachute in the middle of the terminal. Seriously. Now, imagine. Oh, something worse. Imagine he's repacking the shoot and you realize he's in your on your flight. That's how you get rid of the terrorists on the flight. They're like, oh, he's got this one. I'll pick a different. one. I'd just be terrified seeing you.
Starting point is 00:08:56 You're on the phone getting mad trying to repack this. And as an outsider that doesn't know you, they're just like, he's fucking all over the place. This guy's yelling and then quiet and smiling and then doing a weird laugh and then a happy laugh. What? It's the Uno reverse card. An Arab guy
Starting point is 00:09:12 sees a white dude on his flight and change his flight. Oh, hell now. No, no, no, no. But yeah, no, I'm good on the flight. He's on the call. What's up?
Starting point is 00:09:23 He's on to us. Well, he has it. Oh, God. Yeah. No, I don't, I don't enjoy flying. It's just not for me. I just, I tend to care less and less for flying every single time I fly. And like the end result is just, I end up getting just like disgustingly bad turbulence on every flight.
Starting point is 00:09:42 I end up due taking. And I'm like, everything I've been through in my entire life, I refuse to go due to a plane going down of all things. If I was, like, going to war on a plane and the shit went down, like, whatever, I'm doing something with purpose. But, like, I want to go on a podcast. This is going to be so fun. I'm going to get... No, it's going to really piss me off. We're not going to have cool deaths, like, plane crashes.
Starting point is 00:10:06 I already know. Like, we do some pretty cool shit. Karma, the way, whatever, like, the balance of the universe, we're going to go out doing something fucking dumb and not cool. I'm good with that. Slipping on an ice cube. Car wreck. Sober. Sober car wreck.
Starting point is 00:10:20 sober I love how that makes it less cool in your... Tell me it doesn't. Nico, what is your least favorite thing about flying? Other than just the crash. No, it's... Think about it.
Starting point is 00:10:35 You're in a metal tin can tens of thousands of feet in the sky. Zero control. And you don't know the pilots. At least in the military, when you like do half of these things, you chit chat, they're your brothers in arms.
Starting point is 00:10:46 And you like, trust them. And I'm like, you know what? Fuck it, dude. If this bitch goes down, like we're doing it together. I don't know any of these people. I had to pay for this fucking seat. I don't like it.
Starting point is 00:10:56 The DEI hires at Delta Airlines are not going to be the thing that takes me out. No, I just, it makes me uncomfortable. I just, I hate it. And then, like, I always end up getting nasty turbulence.
Starting point is 00:11:06 And I'm like, oh, fuck! Like, every time. And I'm like just staring out the window. I'm like, please.
Starting point is 00:11:14 When you say turbulence, you mean like nausea or? I'm talking about my ass cheeks are like, literally. literally coming off of this seat slightly and going back down and basically like riding the plane at this point. So yeah, not like little
Starting point is 00:11:27 foo, foo, foo, but it's devastating. Those big ones are like, boom, yes, every single time I fly and it was like, it fucks with my head because every single time I get on plane, they're like, hey guys, this is a pilot, um, fly attends, please take your seat. We are not going to be doing
Starting point is 00:11:43 I pay for first class so I can get drunk and like kind of forget. We are not going to be doing drink a bottle, service because it's going to get very bumpy, but once we get past this very bad spot, we will start the drink service. I'm like totally defeats the purpose of
Starting point is 00:12:00 the whole thing. Wrong order there, pal. Yeah, wrong order, dude. But luckily now I just get shit-faced before I get on the plane. It still doesn't help that much. I'm just thinking of you doing the Nico scream directly to my right. I'm like, Nico, for fuck's sake, we haven't taken off yet. Miko, they're asking us to buckle up.
Starting point is 00:12:17 Please chill the fuck. That's what I was saying The next time you guys fly somewhere I'll go and you guys can see what it's like Flying with Nico It'll be great Just nerves I'm gonna be extremely so tense
Starting point is 00:12:29 I'm just gonna be mad the whole time And frustrated You just see a Burger King hat coming out I'm like no Nico no I know the easy way off this flight Yeah I'm gonna be a problem Take it off turn back around
Starting point is 00:12:40 He's already got a second one on What's going on Removing hats We don't know where they're coming from We're getting kicked off this fucking plane I bought a 10-pack of Burger King crowns for the unsubed live tour last time, and I fucking forgot to bring him. What a fucking insult to Burger King. They would have gave it to you for free if you ordered food.
Starting point is 00:12:57 You're like, I don't want your food. I'll just pay for them. I don't. But it was before they started rolling it back out again. I just went on eBay and bought a 10-pack. Of course you did. It was like $15, whatever. Loves them 10-packs.
Starting point is 00:13:10 It's so good. Listen, my goals are beyond your understanding. What's funny? is the people that sell that on eBay have to know. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Like, Halloween, they probably make a fucking killing. Man, Hall Hitler, 69, 69,
Starting point is 00:13:28 five stars. The Halloween costume, it's just it's the white shirt, the Burger King Crown, and the tear drop tattoo. 50,000 orders, five stars, what? They're all very positive. Yeah. Love my hat, very durable,
Starting point is 00:13:44 take it on every flight with me. I'd love it. Instant reply. shift instantly. Very nice card on the inside. You can feel the hate when you take it out of the box. Oh, God. And it's like just a one-star review. Like, didn't get my order.
Starting point is 00:13:58 Seller very rude. Noel Silverstein. I like that. Oh, yeah. Nick doesn't like talking about, I remember from the one last time. And I was like, oh, because they're black. That is probably one of my favorite episodes.
Starting point is 00:14:17 45 minutes trying to paint me as a racist. It was miserable. Somebody spent $13 million. It's the hardest I've heard Eli laugh, I think, ever. And it just makes me feel so. Somebody spent $13 million to paint me as a racist, so, you know, it works out. I think we were like, we had already filmed one or two podcasts that day, got drunk during the podcast, went to the bar for two hours, and then came back. And for some reason, I was like, we're recording again.
Starting point is 00:14:46 Yeah. that was one it's like we're doing another podcast like we were drunk who shit over there I think yeah okay let's go podcast ever come out yes oh it did it's aggressive oh man I it was just the three of us I remember the one we filmed house the other like a couple months back that there's no way that podcast has seen the late we still have that footage oh yeah I just I just want the snippet of the 40s are here that's all I want to make that my ringtone we got to scrub through it was rich there too yeah Oh, God, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Yeah, that tracks, actually. We door dashed 40s. It was me, you, Eli, Rich, and Connor. Yep, that was the other one. God. I spent 45 minutes trying to tell a story. So the wall, the stone wall, up dead high. Fucking God dang it.

Starting point is 00:17:31 So, you know, that's really nice as well. But, yeah, I think it's funny because me and Eli were talking one day, and you guys are always also welcoming and stuff. Like, oh, we love seeing you man. You got to come out here. And I'm like, fuck that bitch. I'm getting on a plane. And then Eli was like, yeah, dude, we miss. you got to come out here and I was like well
Starting point is 00:17:45 my lease is coming up you moved to avoid a plane flight dedication I'm like they always hold me to fucking hang pretty much and then I was like you know what it'd be so funny if like I just buy a house out there
Starting point is 00:18:01 and then not tell anybody until I move out there when we and you were talking I literally hadn't told anybody but randomly me and you were talking previously and you were like I was like hey what's new dude we're catching up blah blah blah and like three hours later I just moved out here like a weekend and then he was like oh come to dinner and then he obviously told you and you text me like there was there you're like you moved to san an
Starting point is 00:18:22 and tony i was like oh yeah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha because i think it's funny for some reason so yeah now i have a house out here i just love how your brain works for like i miss my boys i don't like plans we're moving all of this to we're moving solution all of this just to avoid a return flight yeah absolutely not there was no way So now I have a house out here and it's just a nice safe 30 minute drive in a car. His response when I was like, oh, we're going to invite Nico. He's like, oh, what is he in town? He was like, he moved here.
Starting point is 00:18:55 What? What? So like short answer, yes. Like, yeah, he literally just, I think at that point moved here, like the day of or. It was like, I was only like seven days in because I was like, I couldn't even come and hang out just because I was like, I'm still unpacking boxes and shit. so I'm not going to be able to make it. But yeah. And then here we are.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Hanging out. The four. Best friends that. Anyone can happen? Just in time for us to move range day to Las Vegas. I know. That's actually very funny. I was so fucking mad.
Starting point is 00:19:30 Literally it wasn't until like last week. Officially I was like, okay, I guess I'll go to the range day because I literally I was like, I'm not going. I'm not getting on a plane. I just literally came here and I drove here, by the way. And so I'm like, you know what? I forget who convinced me like two days ago. And I was like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:19:47 Fuck it. Like, I'll go to range day, I guess. We'd love to have you. Thanks. Thanks, guys. So fucking fun. They're like, let's just do it because we know Nico's going to move out here. But let's get this little bitch boy on a plane and watch him freak out.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Well, charter at private, which is statistically way more likely to crash. But it's more fun. That is true. I've never flown private. Nico wakes up in a spirit airline. Yeah. We said We were flying
Starting point is 00:20:16 I just drive out there And I'll meet you guys That Spirit Airlines is going under I think Right They just announced their They're closing up Oh no Are they?
Starting point is 00:20:26 Are they? I thought Spirit Airlines is actually doing kind of good No is it? I don't think they've never I mean no one never thinks They're doing good But like I'm like I don't know
Starting point is 00:20:34 My parents always fly spirit And I'm like okay We'll go I hope I stop parents Later Dude It was one of of the those are the ones I'm like nah of all the airplanes oh yeah bankruptcy yeah okay I was
Starting point is 00:20:48 wrong they said they they canceled service at four California airports and canceled 11 routes okay maybe they're not going under yet but they're like about to go into bankruptcy restructuring process so the restructuring fired weird weird neat they get a lot I mean they have a lot of media attention all the time which shows you very good no exactly I feel like you would know this. Why did we, what was the plane that could travel like super fucking fast? It was a commercial, the Concord. They ran it for like a couple years and then they quit.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Why did they stop with that? I don't know. I don't know if it was like a FAA, like a regulation thing where there was like a, they capped commercial flight speeds or something like that. I thought it was an efficiency thing because like you, it costs like a pretty penny. You could get from like West Coast to East Coast and obviously all business people were paying it. But, like, the fuel efficiency, and this is when, like, all these planes started transitioning, I thought, to smaller aircraft. And they're like, it just makes more sense to have these people pay for more flights and do more, like, stops.
Starting point is 00:21:52 So the Concord was retired in 2003 due to a combination of high operating costs, a sharp decline in passenger numbers after a fatal 2000 crash and restrictions on supersonic flights over land. So it was a, okay, so there was a conversation of all. There was a, uh, yeah, dude, the supersonic's stupid. I disagree. I like, I want that. It's that high? Are you going to hear that shit really? You'll hear like, no. No, I'm going to hear it.
Starting point is 00:22:17 It's just like, why not get there faster? Go to new. I like, no, like, I want that. Oh, I thought you're saying you didn't like it. No, I don't like that. No, let's do it. Speed. Well, didn't the nose shit?
Starting point is 00:22:28 Like, once you're in the air, it goes like, and like straightens out the whole head of the aircraft. And then before you land it, like, fucking. Dude, that would fuck me up. Yeah, when it takes off, it's like downwards. And then when it's in the air, it's like, it's like, mm. It consumed five to seven times more fuel than subsonic aircraft.
Starting point is 00:22:46 I don't care. Oh, trust me. Because the speed and how fast did it get from New York to L.A.? That's what I was trying to figure out Concord. Wait, New York to L.A.? L.A. to New York. Three hours. It was fast.
Starting point is 00:23:00 Especially compared to, what, is this, six hours for a regular one? Traveling at Mach 204, 1354 miles an hour. Holy shit. Yeah, you're looking at sub three-hour flight from coast to coast. That's pretty hot. It'd be awesome. Dude. That was, no, it's tweaking me out, just thinking about, you're just flying super fast and shit just
Starting point is 00:23:22 starts slowly flying off. You'll hit the ground faster, though. That was your whole, that's why you're going like this, Nick. You're not hitting the ground faster. You're not, it's going to, bleh. My skin's probably going to fly off to my body before I hit the ground. Hey, the flight's shorter. No.
Starting point is 00:23:37 So, okay, so, oh God, the Concord typically took. Five hours, and this is just, you know, Google results. So who knows. Five hours and 45 minutes to fly from Los Angeles to London. Yeah. That's sick. What do you think the flight's like, though? Do you think it's like smooth or just like crazy?
Starting point is 00:23:52 I bet you don't feel shit. It's like the bullet train. Bullet train. You're just walking around. It is very chill. Just like, oh, shit. And then you look out the window. So it stops to get you.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Yeah. The, what's LHR? Maybe they're going to bring it back. since they're rolling back all the EPA shit with cars. Dude, that would be rad. LHR? Yeah. To JFK is three hours compared to 7.57 and 6th. Those flight times are
Starting point is 00:24:21 wildly different. Did you see the EPA shit? Oh, which ones? They're rolling back like a bunch of EPA and cafe standards and all the bullshit and Toyota came out and announced their new super is going to have a V8. Nice. Oh, I did see that. Oh, I thought it was like something, is it a V8 or like a V12
Starting point is 00:24:38 they were talking about like something insane? They said it was going to be a five-liter v8 in the supra. I mean, the super's tiny. That should go. I'm excited. Stupid fucking fast. V-8s are back on the menu. A lot of supercars are going to...
Starting point is 00:24:51 It's supercars in general, like, the hype is dying. Thank God. Like, all these supercars, like, the Tesla is going to fuck every supercar in the ass. Especially the new roadsters. New roadsters. Yeah. Like, the supercars are what?
Starting point is 00:25:09 They're just expensive, but they're not as fast. I think it's a lot of its aesthetic, though. Because even the new roadster, like, even that's getting matched. Like, I love all of the stats of the roadster, and I'll, I might buy one, depending on when they come out and how much they actually go for, but I just, I doesn't look like, it, it's like hypercar stats, but it looks like a model S. That's always the hard part. It's, you want that refined.
Starting point is 00:25:32 I want a Lamborghini because of a Lamborghini. I want a McLaren F1. That's sexy look. Of a McLaren F1, plus the engine sound. I hate. I love how fast electric cars are. I hate, despise them racing. Anything.
Starting point is 00:25:46 It's just, you just get over it, Eli. Just say it. It's a perception of women. It's a whole issue with it. It's like trying to explain to a woman that the power lifter with the beer guts actually stronger than Arnold Schwarzenegger. They're never going to believe you. And that's all that matters.
Starting point is 00:26:03 Doesn't matter what's on the stat sheet. Just what impresses you. Okay, we're going to go with that. All stand four times of money. I feel like supercars are like that's another thing where it's like watches and anything else, which shouts out to watch guy. You're impressing other men. You're gay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Something like that. That's the reason I got my watch. So dudes would ask me questions. Saying why I got my supercarmed by men. Oh, 100%. And it's true. Guys will walk up to you before women will if you have a nice car. Girls aren't like, oh my God.
Starting point is 00:26:36 It's dudes like. No, there's a. there's like a bell curve where it's like impressing everybody impressing everybody impressing everybody women stop being impressed only dudes keep being impressed like yeah with watches it's like women are impressed up until Rolex try to explain to them what an A&P is or any like anything that's not going anywhere they don't give a shit it's not a Rolex it's like the only brands they know yeah unless you're like into it into it right it's like Lamborghini Ferrari what the fuck is a McLaren like the knowledge is kept I just watched you like take poison damage
Starting point is 00:27:08 on that one? I know. It's like, tell me I'm wrong. I just watched like, a tear went down and he sucked it back up. I'm watching like Eli's heads up display like red dead. Dang. Negative honor. He's like, what the fuck did you just say? Dang. Sav, you're laughing a little too hard.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Sav did you know what a McLaren was before he got one? Yes, only just my dad though. So it's still still guy base. Hmm. Hey, they made a new one, too, only five. I told Brandon today. Yeah. I was like, hey, if one of those five got offered to unsub to buy as a whole, and it's
Starting point is 00:27:47 three to five million dollars, we were spending three to five million dollars. The new one? What is it, the W one or whatever the fuck? So Gordon Murray makes his own, he made the F1, then stepped away, and then very rarely designs cars. He just redesigned the F1LM as the S one, and it is, there's only five being made, and there maybe three to five million he hasn't set a price and that car is going to be worth in a decade like 40 50 million dollars instant like mark my words in two decades that will be a 50
Starting point is 00:28:19 million dollar car all day long on so historians you better get your pens out but what about the speed tail that lost all of its value he didn't work on that okay we're talking about the designer here yeah retaining the value of the car that's why out of those 100 well there's like 82 f1s left the last one sold for like $32 million. Fuck. And that was $800,000 when it came out. And they just keep going up. Yeah, go buy a supercar, guys.
Starting point is 00:28:45 Well, you know, that was kind of like part of growing up for me. It's like, since I was a kid, I always wanted a Lamborghini eventador. That was like my car. I'm like, when I make it, I'm going to buy a Lamborghini eventador. And it's like weirdly like, it's the growing up thing where you realize like, okay, now that I can afford one, I would rather spend that. like a few hundred thousand, what, three, four, five hundred thousand dollars? Three hundred back, like, you're, that shit's always changing.
Starting point is 00:29:09 The car market's all fucked right now. Yeah, that's the hard part right now. But I'm super, but 500 grand, three to 500 easy. I would rather have that in, like, either invest in more businesses or buy some land or hire more employees or buy a CNC machine or like, there's so many things that that money could do that would matter more in my life than a car that I'll drive once a week. Cut to Brandon driving a C&C down the road. It's like, I can have all of it realistically, guys, so I was just pitching out some good advice.
Starting point is 00:29:34 I'm not, YouTube money ain't that good It's decent It's not that good It's hard Like supercars watch Even watches Looking at the prices It's like
Starting point is 00:29:45 Ah, but they're really cool And then it is an heirloom You can pass down to your kiddo Especially if there's like precious metals And stuff like that Like it makes a little more sense than just I didn't even have a nice watch either Until like a year and a half ago
Starting point is 00:30:00 Yeah I was rocking a $90 in Victor Tells time Same and then you start learning it and then really he went as autistic as me and
Starting point is 00:30:10 it's rare when I'm like he's just as invested into study because my wife don't know about dude you put on a swimming cap and dove down that to the hole I was like oh he's sitting me pictures I got to find the best one
Starting point is 00:30:25 okay found the best one sell the rest Apple watch get fucked speaking of which what do you were to know this is the one This is the one. This is the Grand Seco. It is spot on timer.
Starting point is 00:30:39 Like, oh, that's right. Yeah, yeah, you were telling me about that one. Thing is, it's been two months. I've had it, and it's not a second off yet, which is impressive for a mechanical watch. Same with my phone. Wild. This is true. He's like, shut the fuck up, Brandon.
Starting point is 00:30:55 He's like, come on, you know, come on. Brandon, do you need not. One more time. You got this buddy. Brandon, can you? Brandon, do you like... Almost there, bud. Brandon, where do you store your firearms?
Starting point is 00:31:07 All over my house in every fucking crevice. Well, do I have the product for you, Nick Schum? Here, hand it to me, Brandon, so I can show you. Brandon, this is stopbox. Stop box. We love box. You're selling me. What's in the box?
Starting point is 00:31:22 You have to open it and find out. All right, well, let's see if I can do this. Oh, wow. Look at that. Oh, it didn't stop you. Can I hide my goop in that? You can hide your goop in that. that. Cody? Cody, do you know why I love this thing? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Because you don't have to use
Starting point is 00:31:41 keys. Gun, not included. Cody, you've got multiple cats in your house, including squirt, who's quite the scrapper. Would you want squirt to have access to your firearms? No, he's violent. Well, then stopbox is the perfect product for you. No cats getting inside that. Or people without thumbs. The nice part is it is actually TSA compliant. I didn't actually know that part until a couple months ago. That is actually really cool. Just put a little lock through there.
Starting point is 00:32:08 Exactly. When you check in a pistol or any gun, if there's a hole that a lock can go through on whatever you're checking your gun in, you have to put a lock through that. This has one hole, so you just need one lock easily accessible once you land on the ground. I know you're not normally a one hole kind of guy,
Starting point is 00:32:22 but this is definitely an exception to the rule. Never worry about tariffs because everything is sourced right here in the USA. Wait, what are tariffs? Like, I'm pretty sure I shot a few of them. For a limited time only, get 10% off your entire order if you use code unsubscribe checkout. And right now, if you buy one stopbox, you're going to get another stopbox free. So that's 10% off plus buy one, get one free when you use code unsub at checkout.
Starting point is 00:32:46 That's stopboxusA.com. Discover a better way to balance security and readiness with stopbox. Stopboxusa.com. Use code unsubscribe. Nico, what are you working on next now that you're surrounded by all the? the creators again. Now you can do anything. Yeah, but I mean, like I said, like maybe like a year or two ago, I was like, okay, once
Starting point is 00:33:06 I went to Vegas, I was like, I think I'm just kind of like, not done making content, but I could kind of like care less what I do at this point because I'm living pretty good. There's nothing else I really need to do or care to really achieve in my life. But I get bored fast and easy. And then now, then it got deeper into me investing and doing all these things. and then now trying to get into acquisitions, purchasing other companies and stuff like that. And then it's just, hey, I'm liquid enough.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Do you need money? And I'll take like 10% equity in that. Just so I have the ability to like also participate in decisions of companies because I love scaling companies. And I'd rather take a lower cut on equity than actually taking like high just on revenue share. So yeah, just investing and stuff like that. But then now, now they're out here, vlogging, live
Starting point is 00:33:57 streaming, and just kind of doing all that stuff again. Any companies you're working with you want to like... No. I am very quiet about all. I figured it might be a good shout at opportunity, but... I feel like Niko's super into crypto or something. I do have a pretty vast crypto portfolio. Yeah. God,
Starting point is 00:34:15 every woman in the room is now drier than the Sahara. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty much is that it works. And I'm like, I'm not even going to explain shit. It's just... The crypto bros. Have you seen the It's just a screenshot of a message thread where it's a girlfriend breaking up with her boyfriend. She's like, John, we need to see other people.
Starting point is 00:34:33 All your friends are advancing their careers and achieving things and blah, blah, blah. And all you do is blow all your money on this stupid Bitcoin shit. And then it was like, how much my 117 Bitcoin is actually worth it. It showed the date. And then it was like seven years later. And it's just, hey, John, how have you been? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:54 It's just like, okay. And a lot of people don't understand it in general. So I'm like, okay, that's fine. But I've been in crypto for a while. I actually just applied like two days ago because Gemini is working with MasterCard. And they just came up with utilizing Bitcoin and XRP 4% back for purchases. And that's in like a crypto portfolio. And so basically I'm like, I'm kind of over the AMX lifestyle.
Starting point is 00:35:22 I've had my platinum cards. I've had my gold cards. I've had my blue, my green cash cards, I have all these things to utilize different ways of investing my money and getting cash back and then, you know, spending all that around. But Amex is just like losing so much of its value. People don't want to work with them anymore. So now I think a big pull that I'm going to start doing is utilizing my new Gemini card just to get 4% cash back because it's 4% on quite literally everything that you're purchasing
Starting point is 00:35:48 with. So I'm like, okay. And then with the new passes and policies of like the crypto like cash reserve and stuff like that. I'm like, okay, this isn't going anywhere. Sorry. Quick little spiel. Quick little spiel. So I'm super excited to get that right now. Didn't they announce that
Starting point is 00:36:04 like the U.S. government's going to have a reserve of, I think, Bitcoin, Solana and Eth? I'm not surprised. Salana. I've never heard of that one. Yeah. Soul Eith, Bitcoin, XRP.
Starting point is 00:36:20 Man. No Doge. God damn it Something tells me that there might have been a rift there Yeah no but the I'm really you know It sucks to say now because everyone's really banking on XRP But I've been investing in XRP since I was like at Sub 50 cents
Starting point is 00:36:38 And I'm a XRP I'm a big whale on that but now that everybody's talking about it It makes me nervous And I'm like oh shit like is this going to like tank You're starting to see when you start seeing like celebrities and stuff Talk about crypto it's kind of like a big red flag in that world but when the White House is talking about it too, and then that entire cash reserve stuff comes out.
Starting point is 00:36:57 It's like, okay, maybe this can work. But I'm like, okay. And if it fails, fuck it. Who cares? That's what investing is. Set it on fire and hopefully it turns into a Phoenix. If not, have fun with the ashes, dude. I love trying to explain Bitcoin to old people.
Starting point is 00:37:11 It's one of my passions in life. You're trying to give them a heart attack. I know. I just sit there and watch their brain short circuit. They're like, yeah, but it's just numbers on a screen. I go, yes, and the cash in your pocket is just green paper. It literally, the exact same. Yeah, but it's money.
Starting point is 00:37:27 I go, what the fuck is that? Are you telling me that older people have a hard time understanding concepts like that? Yes. Do you know the average age of the person who regulates Bitcoin? 70. Yeah, that seems like a problem. The people that are legislating crypto are beyond the age where they are capable of understanding it. My video on Klarna comes out.
Starting point is 00:37:49 That's horrifying. Wait, what? Yeah. Video on what? Buy now, pay later, Klarna. Oh, that's the... Go ahead. No, that's the pizza thing you were talking about.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Yeah. And that's, you... So you did a deep dive on this, right? The buy now pay later shit is like, it's fine if you're doing it for like an oven or whatever. But Klarna signed an exclusive deal with DoorDash. So now you can do pay in four or pay off in 30 days for a zero interest free loan on your DoorDash order. Do not do that. Here's the crazy part.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Klarna makes its money by processing fees and interest. Credit cards make their money by processing fees and interest. But they're not regulated as credit cards or lines of credit because it's not revolving credit. So when they write you up for any amount of money they give you, that is an individual small loan every time. So if you fucking buy 90 things on DoorDash in a year using Klarna, you've opened up 90 lines of credit. That was fucking insane. Not good look.
Starting point is 00:38:57 This month, they just started reporting all of, so previously they weren't reporting it to your credit score rating bureaus. The only time it would affect your credit was if you didn't pay them back, they would sell the debt off to a collector. The collector would report it and it would negatively impact your credit. Well, people are getting pissed because it can't improve your credit. Okay. So now we have to start, now we have to start reporting. It's reporting it every time. Okay, so now they're reporting every time you buy a fucking burrito.
Starting point is 00:39:26 And if you pay it off, it can improve your credit. But also, when you go to buy a house or a car or anybody runs your credit and, oh, you've opened up 300 lines of credit this year for $17 a piece. Yeah. That's not looking good. Just a little bit of sage wisdom. If you need to take out a loan to buy $25 worth of Chick-fil-A, you don't need to be door-dashing. Starve this starve instead This is a funny part
Starting point is 00:39:53 I was talking shit about it Because I love to tweet about shit Before I make the video to find out the shitty talking points For the keyboard warrior bit Somebody got on there and commented Oh rich YouTuber doesn't understand the struggles Of the rest of the 99% of us DoorDash is a necessity for some people
Starting point is 00:40:13 Okay No we're fine We're fine go ahead Yeah How is it a necessity He argued because some people are disabled, so they can't go get their own food. Nick, it seems that the government have something in place for that, right? Meals on wheels.
Starting point is 00:40:29 Most grocery stores have free delivery services. H.E.B. does. Crazy. Wow. So crazy. I don't know how disabled people got their food before DoorDash. They didn't know they starved. That's why DoorDash is a human right.
Starting point is 00:40:42 Well, and then that company, though, didn't something come out about with the whole loan process that people actually weren't, like, They hit like a huge dip in revenue because people quite literally weren't paying back the loan. Q1 for 2025, Klarna is $99 million in the red because you're never going to believe this. The people that financed britos aren't paying off the loans. Shocking. Oh my goodness. Klarna is going to IPO. They're trying to get $15 billion.
Starting point is 00:41:10 So all we need to do now is for Klarna to sell off the debt and bundle it as an investment to get more investment. With Amex Platinum. Access to exclusive Amex pre-sale. tickets can score you a spot track side. So being a fan for life turns into the trip of a lifetime. That's the powerful backing of Amex. Pre-sale tickets for future events subject to
Starting point is 00:41:30 availability and varied by race. Terms and conditions apply. Learn more at Amex.com. Money into it. And then when the subprime burrito bubble bursts, we can crash the economy just like we did in 2008. It's going to be perfect. Yay! Do you think they could win though? Except for a way dumber reason. Dude, the worst fucking reason.
Starting point is 00:41:48 I say that in the video. I was like, At least when the housing market crashed, the bank could foreclose on the house and have something to sell and get some of their money out of. Now you're out here trying to repo a turn. Give me the phone back. Give the turd back. The bank shows up. Spread your asshole.
Starting point is 00:42:08 It looks bad on your credit also if you keep applying for lines of credit. You're supposed to do, I think it's like, don't quote, five, seven max a year. Yeah. Like you want to restrict how much you apply. For my video, there's a bunch of, like, bank people, like mortgage lenders and shit that we're getting on TikTok being like, please don't use Klarna if you're in the process of buying a house because you can't open new lines of credit. And this is a line of credit and it can literally deadline your entire mortgage process trying to get your first home. Three to six months, like minimum. I used to do real estate.
Starting point is 00:42:42 And we would come into that quite a bit where you would have somebody who celebrates like, oh, I just bought my first house. This is awesome. I went out and bought a boat. It's right outside. And you just like, the closing attorneys, everybody just stopped. Like, you, you did what? Yeah, it's right outside. Did you pay cash for it?
Starting point is 00:43:02 Oh, no, no. They gave me a great rate. All right. Guys, I think we're done here today. Fuck. Credit is the one thing. It can be terrifying because you can fuck that shit real fast, but it takes a little bit of time to rebuild. The other way these places fuck you is because every, the way they have to write it to avoid credit card regulations is because every fucking burrito, every pizza, every grocery order that you use buy now, pay later on is its own individual loan.
Starting point is 00:43:32 In order to keep up with that to like make it appear to skirt that credit card regulation, they have to charge all of those individually. So if you have 90 buy now pay laters, it's not you're getting one statement at the end of the month. You owe Klarna $800. dollars. It's no, we're going to charge your account. You bought a brito on Tuesday. We're charging you the next six Tuesdays in a row. Then you bought a pizza on Wednesday. We're charging you the next six Wednesdays in a row. So you're getting 50 different payments taken out. Your bank accounts taking poison damage. Yeah. Yeah. Pretty much, dude. How? Again. I just don't see who the fuck actually thinks that's a good idea. Well, a lot of people. I know the other side too. It's the, this is the
Starting point is 00:44:14 A lack of sustainable business model. The stat I found was DoorDash obviously won't release the information. Neither will Clarena, but it was like consumer or something, rather did a study. And 38% or 33% of people that frequently use DoorDash were likely or very likely to use Buy Now Pay Later services. Yeah. A third. I don't understand what's causing that though, because I've like heard of that statistic, but I'm like, what position did you put yourself?
Starting point is 00:44:44 and one to where you're there and need that and two to where you continue to pull out these loans just for this food bro go eat fucking peanut butter jelly sandwiches man you're thinking too deep it is it's you're too deep so like when they did a bunch of like marketing studies in the 80s and 90s on this and whenever you spend
Starting point is 00:45:01 it's like over 80 dollars it activates the same part of your brain that recognizes pain so like the lower your total amount is when you hit by doesn't matter what the circumstances are the better you feel about it. So, like, dumb people, financially illiterate people. Like, it's not that they don't have the $17 in their account.
Starting point is 00:45:22 It's that it just feels better to only spend $4 at checkout. You're still spending the same amount, if not more. Yeah. Correct. So what's the interest like on this? It's like 36% or something. Christ. What?
Starting point is 00:45:35 Are you serious? It might be 26. It's like the upper end of credit credit. That's crazy. You're looking at it. I guarantee minimum 20% and everyone's going into it thinking, really quick it is you're thinking
Starting point is 00:45:48 okay I have this much information on this this is why I want to do that a lot of people don't even have that it's oh I can get a loan now oh that helps my credit that's what I've heard that's as deep as that goes so then look I can buy that and I can buy a whole bunch and I'll just pay it off when I pay it off
Starting point is 00:46:04 because I'm helping my credit or I don't care I'll just never pay it back what's the worst they're going to ruin my credit I don't give a shit so there's your two different negative sides of that You shouldn't be worried about ruining your credit unless you're like stupid Which then your credit doesn't matter, but if enough people start using this, it's gonna fuck everybody though Because a credit card charges between one and three percent for a processing fee
Starting point is 00:46:28 That's what they charge the retailer By now pay later is charge like six percent So they charge double of what a credit card charges and the only reason retailers agree to it is because there's like hard data that shows People are like it's like 30 percent more light to actually do the purchase because the price is lower at checkout so they feel like they can make the payments so they're more likely to purchase and they're like it's like 17% more likely to spend more money so the to the retailers they're getting more sales at a higher dollar volume so they're all about it so they're willing to pay the difference but if enough people start using it the retailers are like well half these people are having us pay 6% transaction fee we're just going to raise the price then they just raise the price then they just raise the prices on everything to accommodate their loss on that end and then everybody they're winning but it just helps with inflation don't get got don't get got no lord that's it makes me sad i'm like god i wish you guys weren't all retarded but but the reason the reason i went down this rabbit hole was
Starting point is 00:47:33 because you brought up the people regulating bitcoin it's the same problem with this is it's like oh you know who's probably not using door dash a whole lot to like see that this is an issue 70 year olds in Congress that would obviously, if they looked at it and thought about it for half a second, would be like, wait a minute, that's a credit card. What the fuck is this? All they see is a charge that shows up that they make their staffers go do for them. Yep. Oh, oh, that means I got food. I hate everything.
Starting point is 00:48:00 Hey, Brandon, do you have cash app? Brendan, I ask you a fucking question. No, Eli, what's that? Do you have cash app, Brandon? How did you do that? Brandon, anything's possible when you use cash app. Oh, okay. Moving money should be easy.

Starting point is 00:49:43 People were surprised when they got hit. What now says I owe them five grand. Dog, you used your credit card or debit card to pull out $5,000 linked to all your information. It was more than that, dude. They were going up to, I think it was like 30K to 50K that they could like withdraw and then they just started seeing it fucking like that debt owed and they started actually aggressively pursuing everybody. And I was like, well, good for them because you, you're doing like, you're doing like,
Starting point is 00:50:10 illegal shit. And you're literally theft. Yes. And it would record it. It was an entire trend, which is the weird part. The thought process of somebody that's just like, oh yeah, this is their mistake. Obviously, this will be fine for me. If enough people break the law, nobody's breaking the law. I don't get all of us in trouble.
Starting point is 00:50:31 The only opportunity. Yeah, the only opportunity I saw from that was I was like, bro, if you were going to take all that money and like invest it very briefly and then like withdraw where there's like a way of like avoiding the capital gains tax sure you win but nobody did that shit let's be real they went to go buy new shoes and a new tv yeah dude oh god bad so bad i didn't realize they started doing the um stores they won't admit to it yet but individual price changes when you get to the front at checkout yeah dollar general got a shit ton of
Starting point is 00:51:03 trouble for that yeah i didn't even know that was a thing and now they'll do the digital display and by the time you walk up because of RFI tags and scanners, it can change the price to there so they can change it based off of the individual coming to the... What do you mean the individual? Let's say I walk up with a GTX, the brand new graphics card. Like the top of the line was the new ones, like 590s. I have a 590, Brandon has a 590 or you have a 590.
Starting point is 00:51:34 Whoever has the most money, they will actually lower the cost in order to win that individual's business for long term versus the individual that might be struggling. It's a one-time purchase. We can charge a bit more for this person. Interesting. You'd think it would be back. It would be the other way. They want customer lifetime value because that's, hey, how much will this individual spend over his lifetime? If this dude's lower, like $30 versus Steve is $500, just charge other guy just a bit more this time. No. And most of the time, no one's going to know it's happening but dollar general just got hit yeah they i i don't know
Starting point is 00:52:13 if i don't know if the government stepped in and did anything but like they were talking about getting them in trouble because there was a ton of like even with just like groceries and stuff it was like it says 299 on the shelf but it rings up is 499 so all these people were coming forward being like they charge me 50 more dollars than what their shelf price said it was because it rings up different and like the average person doesn't check you know what i mean like i've never fucking rang stuff that I'm being like that's not the right price I know some people all your groceries yeah yeah and that's why they're doing digital prices now like best buy and stuff because your price is a fixed paper price versus that's why when you go to best buy
Starting point is 00:52:51 it's a digital LCD screen now or they use those bar codes so when you go up it's like investing in stocks yeah by the time you're the register you're running up front you're like what is it do you think about this what if they like you know the cookies that you accepted on website track your other behavior and they can automatically adjust the prices that are shown on their website if you're scrolling on your phone this episode is brought to you by peloton a new era of fitness is here introducing the new peloton cross-training tread plus powered by peloton iq built for breakthroughs with personalized workout plans real-time insights and endless ways to move lift with confidence while peloton iq counts reps corrects form and tracks your progress

That's the other thing of how those companies will work is they buy that information that has already been tracked to you. It's why when you go to plane tickets, it's always set up a VPN and then go into private and then Google Cheap flights. Because that will make a significant difference on how much you get charged versus if you're just using your regular account on Google. Google and you're searching cheap flights. It's going to, oh, this guy will pay this no matter what. This is feeling kind of like a cyberpunk-ass conversation.
Starting point is 00:54:09 Yeah. Pretty much. We're talking numbers and shit. Facebook got busted for, uh, because once you get Facebook access to your phone, like, they have access to the camera and everything. Facebook got caught. They could tell when it was a female between the ages of like 12 and 22. And then they could tell every time she took a selfie multiple times and deleted it.
Starting point is 00:54:31 And then if they did that, they would. bombard them with makeup and beauty ads. Wait, what? I don't like this. Yeah, they're like, oh, if she deletes 17 selfies, obviously she's self-conscious about her looks, let's bombard her with makeup ads. I thought you were going to say they were looking at
Starting point is 00:54:44 my fuzzle. I was like, I'm going to go take pieces of my asshole later. They're probably doing that too. It's a whole bunch of toilet paper ads. Well, no, there was that one famous case where it was something about this guy getting mad at, I don't know if it was Amazon or whatever the fuck it was. I read this story
Starting point is 00:55:02 a long time ago. But it was, the guy was getting mad because they were showing a bunch of shit to his underage daughter, like showing a bunch of ads for like prenatal vitamins and things like that.
Starting point is 00:55:12 It's like, are you really trying to encourage team pregnancy? And turns out Amazon knew before he did that she was pregnant. Just based on algorithmic shit, just behavior. It will start serving you. I started the,
Starting point is 00:55:26 I will always surf the internet off of my other account. And then finally when I did the say hi, channel i started using that as the means i searched the internet or browse youtube it is now serving me the exact same shorts i had seen months ago on my old account it's like oh this dude probably would like this content right here and i'd be like oh my god it's just now knowing exactly what i used to watch to a t and now serving it directly of what i know i would watch from the past i was like
Starting point is 00:55:57 oh okay i found my my exact algorithm is back we can see it on our channels like on the back and it's like your users also watch and like based on video and whatever and see how much crossover we all have. We were at Shot Show and Micah was showing me. Micah just wants his Instagram feed like on the search function to be guns at cars and like whatever the fuck else he's into.
Starting point is 00:56:18 He's like I'm sick of seeing girls try to promote their only fans or whatever. He will go through and I don't want to see this content on everyone and I guess I don't even know it's in the setting somewhere but you can see all the posts you've ever done that to, he shows me he's just scrolling thousands of times that he's done it. And they just will not stop trying to feed him tits and ass because they know he's a 30 year old dude. They're like, I know you like this. I know it. You have to like it. I would say that is
Starting point is 00:56:47 exactly how mine is to where I'm like, I need to get off Instagram because I look like a weirdo and I'm not checking out none of this shit. And even if you click like not interested, not interested, it just keeps good. God it gives you more. What if what if your entire search algorithm, whatever for the 4U page or whatever on Instagram, which is entirely like firefighter thirst traps and just gay shit. You're like, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Brick by brick, brother. State mandated homosexuality. I like dick by dick. Dick by dick. I built this algorithm dick by dick. Inch by inch. My new goal for my miles and miles

It was real fucking good. I was impressed. Did you guys see the video that came out like a day or two later of the guy? There's like a dude that literally is the white version of that. And he's like, it looks just like me. He's like, Drewski, we got to get you in my derby. We're technically like the same person and shit. And I was like they're literally identical twins. No, I did. He was wearing the overalls with one strap done and it looked just like Drusky, but he was actually a white redneck. Same hair and everything. Same time. type of curls and shit is wild. No shit.
Starting point is 00:59:57 Yeah. I didn't see a single white person offended. No. No. Like, it's all like fake outrage. Yeah. I didn't see anybody actually pissed off about it. And if you did, if you were actually pissed off about that, go fuck yourself.

But it looked like I've been rolling around at mashed potatoes. How well does it lubricate? It was developed by a doctor, and it works for 72 hours.
Starting point is 01:03:31 Show some respect. I'm going to tell that to everyone at the Magic the Gathering Tournament. I wish I was there when they figured out that it wasn't good for 73 hours. I like to imagine just a fat guy on a treadmill for 72 hours straight. He's turned. Time to shower, finally. Fatty curdled. Thanks to Mando.

Starting point is 01:04:06 It's not going to come for at least 72 hours. Listen, we did a lot of meet and greets during the live tour. Y'all motherfuckers could use some man, though. For a strong, independent woman, you can do everything a man can do. You can still use some mando. Our tent to Nick dead. The cops are coming. We've got 72 hours to hide the body

Starting point is 01:06:37 well oh dude good night demarcis and sean o'connell when i'd watch them spar i'd spar and there'd be times like they're gonna demarchus when he hit he's a heavyweight and he can go 50% is still going to destroy you. I had one where I slipped to the side as he like threw a punch. And when it missed, he was like, oh, that would have hurt you. I was like, brother in Christ, that would have killed me. What are you doing right now? And then step out and then watch him and Sean O'Connell spar.
Starting point is 01:07:07 And they are fucking tuning each other up at like 90%. And they're afterwards, their friends are like, good job, good job. Good job, buddy. You said it. You're like, you fucking punched him to down. syndrome? If you look at the pictures after that fight, it really is.
Starting point is 01:07:25 Like, he punched an extra chromosome into that dude. Yes. Yes. I'm excited. I'm excited. That's back when they used to not have it wasn't a buildup.
Starting point is 01:07:41 Or it was literally just a buildup. It was three fights in a single weekend in a tournament style. And how smoked you are is because how good you did those first couple of fights. leading up to your championship round, which is wild to do. An actual kumate style. Bless you.
Starting point is 01:08:00 Pride kicks to the head. Soccer kicks, downed upon it. Not that shit existed. When I grew up, pride meant something different. Fighting in shoes. That was an accidental Don Fry impression. Dude, face stopping, hits to the groin. No shit.
Starting point is 01:08:16 Oh, brother, you used to be able to. Everything was good to go. Yeah. Everything short of like biting. Yeah, Mike Tyson type shit. That's it. Biting off ears. Like biting and fish hooking were like the only things I think that were. Eye gouging shit like that.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Uh, I don't think you can eye gouging. You couldn't eye gouge, but like, I mean, there's old school like UFC and pride footage of like dudes being caught in submissions and just punching the dude and the dick to get out. Oh, my God. Like fall on multiple times to get him to let go of an arm bar and shit. So it's basically the closest we've ever had to professional street fighting. Yeah. At Desjardin, we speak business.

Starting point is 01:09:39 more worried about the other guy's neck uh well he's probably dead he looks he looks fucking dead he gone like it's just murder sessions like that will kill a man oh dude why are we doing that now why aren't we you know people are going to sign up why you want to fight like that why do you think the skill gap of mama has improved so much recently because they survive long enough to get better yeah true but that's just be dude that would be like the sport to watch that'd be the like
Starting point is 01:10:14 power slap have you guys ever gone to that i've seen it dude power slap dude when you see someone smack somebody on TV that's crazy, but when you see them, smack them and you feel it in your fucking chest, what? Like, it makes no sense, dude. It's insane. I could never do that shit.
Starting point is 01:10:33 That seems like it's causing TV. My favorite is when you see somebody wind up and I've seen men and women do it and they smack the shit out of them and they go and look straight at them. Just the look of, oh, fuck. Now they get to smack me back is the funniest shit on the planet.
Starting point is 01:10:50 They quit, too, sometimes. They're like, Eh, you know what, I'm good. Yeah, literally, it's like, you win. Congratulations, you're really good. Have you seen the reels where they do the face filters? And it's like,
Starting point is 01:11:02 Oh, dude, when you were slappled to Asian. Yeah. It's like an ugly white girl. It's like, what if it's a hot Asian girl? She's like, do you just slap the race out of her? They did one with the black guy. And they literally slapped the black off of him, and that was the whole comment section.
Starting point is 01:11:22 I want to know how your eyes don't pop out. Dude. Like in all seriousness. It's all just straight to the head. This is when you could kick when they're down. Like, or, oh.
Starting point is 01:11:32 This is probably riveting to the audience. Just us reacting to fights so they can't see. We're watching gay and all sex guys. It's fucking insane. I forgot you could just football kick to faces when they were on the ground. I completely forgot about that. I think he's still canon.
Starting point is 01:11:46 One FC. No shit. I think they still a lot of strikes to the head of a down to pound. it. Which like, I don't know. I have mixed feelings because like that's the extreme end, but then you have other people that take advantage of the rules.
Starting point is 01:11:58 Like when John Jones would come out and he would like drag one of his seven foot long arms on the ground by slightly leaning down and people are like, he's in like a football lineman stance. People are like, what the fuck do I do? You can't kick. And I can't kick the guy. What do I do? So there was one fight.
Starting point is 01:12:15 I forget who he was fighting, but it was John Jones and he was doing that. and the dude threw a head kick right at his head and he ducked it and John Jones looks at Big John McCarthy and Big John McCarthy goes you wanted to play the game like basically like I'll DQ him after but like you're eating the face kick if you want to do that dumb shit and I was like good it's a good call fair enough because then at least the fighter's like fuck okay I don't want to do that that would not feel good John's still gonna fuck up but yeah he's still gonna win but I see what you're trying to do here dude his last knockout that rib kick to the liver Stepe? Dude Stepe definitely broke a couple of ribs. Did they
Starting point is 01:12:55 release what happened to him afterwards? Because he dropped after that. Bro, when you see a kick and then it just cave in and you're like Yep, your floater ribs are gone. Goodbye. Have fun now. See you later. No. Did your friend
Starting point is 01:13:11 enjoying meeting everyone? Yeah, you had fun. Good, good. He was fun to spar. That's a good. That's a good. Nick and his buddy went a lot harder I was like oh their friends they're like swinging a bit more on each other they've sparred before we fought before it's fine it's hot no headgear
Starting point is 01:13:28 I don't know I don't like headgear man I mean I think doing it without headgear is totally fine but I'm definitely still rocking a mouthpiece and we're definitely still gonna need some like light gloves that's all I I've heard and like I saw the one study I don't I haven't looked into it extensively but like it made sense to me the study was like head gear is worse for
Starting point is 01:13:47 you because a your head's bigger it's a bigger target so you're taking more impact like whether it hits that pad or not it's still rattling your fucking brain but the other part is like the added weight and torque of like if you get hit and your head turns it's that much more weight and that much more torque on your neck and on your brain because you're increasing the weight of the thing so they're like head gear is actually worse for you I can see that I guess it's I think it's bad head gear because you do want that cushion but at the end of the day it is your brain rattling around you have to get rid of that which harder to do i like it as long as i'm wearing winning or a thinner good headgear is very rare but yeah i was like i can't even name any
Starting point is 01:14:30 type of like headgear company that i would buy or even like try to participate with just yeah winning there's a reason like all the champs like pack out everyone uses winning because unfortunately it does cost a lot and you have to wait it's coming from japan but once you use it there is no other headgear best shit in the world it just feels comfortable I don't get headaches
Starting point is 01:14:52 after getting punched in the face a whole bunch that and I'm not doing a lot of the punching of your face when we spar got to move but the
Starting point is 01:15:01 so I like the fact that like it protects your face a little bit more so like you don't come away with it like less chance of like you know broken nose black eye
Starting point is 01:15:09 like that sort of like the physical stuff people can see because I right before I announced for the campaign last cycle, I was still training for my boxing match. So that had not happened yet. And we were like, we were sparring four or five times a week. And right before I went to go take the photos that would officially become like campaign photos, I had gotten like a small
Starting point is 01:15:33 black eye from Eli. And it was not appropriately photoshopped out, I guess. Like you could just still see like it's like a bit of a shiner. And it's still in those photos. And people still use it to this day like introducing Brandon Herrera and I see the photo and I'm like my other fucker like that's the that's the picture where I'm still rocking a pretty obvious black guy shit's all like slightly close he's a fighter though he's a fighter I mean Nick I haven't watched R1 but you get Nick's waffle bat fists where it's like I'm moving out of the way of punches I'm like oh I put fen sent it to me or like the day after we filmed it and I just hit it this Eli moves so fast I could I literally could
Starting point is 01:16:15 couldn't tell if I hit him or not because he moves so quick and then like it's like one hit the jab almost caught him but he moved like that far out of the way for and then it's just the right hand is just a fucking air ball but you in the slowmo it sounds like a waffle ball bat moving through the air yeah I was like what the fuck are you doing do it was here and it's slipping backwards because it's like that's coming next and it's like see don't want to get hit by that that's when you hear the no no no no good on all of that so what kind of now that you're actually out here doing it what is your next style of content you're going to get back into are you just going to keep you doing probably trying to like hunk like iRL streaming i think is like in in the sense of like content creation and stuff like that i think how big irl streaming has gotten is going to kind of change the game a little bit especially when you have like live you platforms and stuff like that which is basically just this tiny little fucking computer that you can plug into your camera camera and now you can stream on a private jet if you want to, you're not going to need a PC. You can literally stream wherever you want. It's going to replace the computer, like desktop streaming. And yeah, so that's basically the next thing is like trying to find a good live you pack to work and then doing like IRL content. What kind of stuff would you want to do on the IRL streaming? Dude, just me being retarded in my backyard doing whatever I want. Having these giant like control burns in my backyard shooting, chopping down trees. I'm lumberjack in it
Starting point is 01:17:43 lately, because I have like two acres. Hell yeah. I'll be lumberjack in my backyard because I got a few acres of like trees and shit back there. I'm trying to get rid of so I can actually like utilize it and shit like that. But yeah, nothing like too serious. I just kind of do whatever I want whenever I want. What is it about these trees?
Starting point is 01:18:00 You've talked about them a lot, both on and off this pot. Way, Nick. Like you moved to Texas, you're like, fuck these trees. You're like a beaver. Like you see running water. You're just like absolutely not. No. It's a mess.
Starting point is 01:18:11 Well, because I have. I have this land, but, like, in my front yard, I can, like, do whatever I want. But in the backyard, you've got about, like, maybe 25 feet, and then it's just a, like, wall of trees. And I'm like, bitch, I paid for this shit. I just bought all of this. I want to do stupid shit. I want to be able to do whatever I want. I want to put a helicopter pad back there or something crazy.
Starting point is 01:18:38 So I have to, like, chop them all down. And my gym's not put together because I need to build, like, a set. separate like area. I want to put two houses in my backyard. So I'm like, okay, you know what? I'm chopping down all these trees. So I'm just back there with an axe all day. You just had me think about the water boy. Why is Nico so angry? Well, because he got a helicopter pad, but no helicopter. He got all that. I can't get the helicopter till. I got the helicopter. Next episode. When I'm going to put the helicopter? That big, that big yard, not in trees. Next episode of the gang does. We're all going to dress up like tree beards from Lord of the Rings and break into Niko's

Starting point is 01:19:49 No, it's, it's my favorite thing to do every single day. I do it every single day. I find time to chop down like 10 trees every day. It is such like a good therapy session for me. So it's actually like my favorite thing to do. He's still selling it. Next time it's going to be a competition. Who can paint my fence to pass this? You want to build a house for me? my backyard too? On sub becomes Mennonites. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:20:18 Well, at least how many how many is left of the tree clearing? Too many. How many acre and like like maybe like an acre left of trees? How many did you start? I have like half an acre in the front and then I have half an acre in the back cleared and then I have a whole other acre. So it's only two acres. And then it's just all, but it's like, they're all side by side.
Starting point is 01:20:44 So it's just fun to kind of go out there and just beat some shit. Be a dude. Beat it with the axe. I was like, oh, he's the chainsaw because I put some of it on my stories. They're like, get a chainsaw. I'm like, no, no, no. The axe is actually very fun and it's very relieving. So, yeah, good times.

Starting point is 01:22:05 As far as a female view percentage All right let's pull up dashboards. No, you got, you got them ladies, bro. No, no, I want to see yours. Yeah, you do. Look at you. No, there's absolutely no way. Miko has a female audience. No, mine's all just retarded men. And what do you got? Uh, let me see. What's your percentage of male? I guarantee, all my audience is like autistic men between the ages of 15 and 35. For which? That's like 80% of them. For which, what platform are we talking about right now? YouTube. Okay. Oh yeah, all right. What? What? I got 94.1% male. Damn it, you beat me, 93.7. I knew I would. It's all fucking dudes. It's a sausage fest in my audience.

Starting point is 01:23:01 I don't go coming in swing without 11%. My favorite is doing numbers. My favorite thing, if I ever get recognized in public by a couple is it's only happened like twice that the the woman actually knew who I was and like liked the videos too with her husband and every other time it's just like a wife that's like embarrassed or annoyed that her husband is like fanboying over some other dude and it's like whatever and then she I'll be I introduced oh hi I'm Nick oh hi I'm Sarah whatever and we'll be talking and she's like I don't I don't know who you are sorry I'm like oh it's no big deal whatever you know
Starting point is 01:23:35 that's fine and then after like that doesn't offend us yeah after we talk for 13 seconds. She's like, okay, I know who you are now. I go, you just recognize my voice from your husband's phone, huh? She goes, yeah. I don't know why that cracks me up. The amount of uncomfortable situations I've come across due to the female audience. Like literally, I was at what? Tractor supply with my girlfriend. And literally, I'm talking with this firefighter guy who like, you know, knew my content, da da da da da, da, da. Just chatting with him really quick. And then this couple parks, they get out their car and this guy's with his wife. And she goes, Oh my God, Nico!
Starting point is 01:24:11 And I was like, what the fuck? And I didn't know, like, I thought it was like my neighbor or something because I just moved out here. And then my girlfriend was like, oh, those people were saying hi to you. I mean, this is kind of weird thing for me to do, but whatever. I was like, I didn't want them to think I was ignoring them. So I went back inside and I was like, hi, nice to meet you guys. My girlfriend said you guys like said hi and I didn't notice. And she's just like, oh my God, it's so nice there.
Starting point is 01:24:35 And her husband's just standing there. He's like, husband wasn't a fan. Husband was not a fan, but knew what I was. Husband was like, well, she just met her fucking hall pass. Yeah, well, no, this has happened, like, a few times, and I'm just like, and I just like try and then just not talk to the girl. I try and talk to him like, hey man, don't fucking shoot me or do no dumb shit. 100% of those girls would be like, it's happened to everyone at the table, but it is,
Starting point is 01:25:03 just so you know, that's my hall path. I'd fuck him if I'm in him. And then the husband meeting you at the same time, it's like, fuck. Fuck you. Did you just move here? Yeah. Fuck you. You got closer.
Starting point is 01:25:15 To-do list. Kill Nico. Dude, I'm like, okay. God damn it. Steal his trees. Steal his trees. Plant more trees. You got to make it.
Starting point is 01:25:30 I would lose my mind because I'm working so hard to get rid of all this shit. Where the fuck are the red of back here? I'm like, guys. You wake up. There's 80. more saplings freshly planted you know funny that would be to actually do
Starting point is 01:25:44 he's ever out of town dude I would lose my mind just like adolescent trees like not saplings no we're paying for the big ones we're moving a big ass tree I'm paying an extra
Starting point is 01:25:58 I'm getting like the three fence posts around it with the chicken wire so it stands up straight so it's a real big pain in the ass to take out hey Google what are the hardest trees to chop down with an ass what are endangered trees you can't cut down.
Starting point is 01:26:10 We're going to put that in danger birds with endangered species. I'm doing an American eagle there. We move the spotted owl to San Antonio just to put them in your fucking backyard. We get a tree put in and then put a bats nest in it so it's illegal to take down. I'll bite the fucking head off those bats, dude. I don't care. We're evil friends. We build the tree around.
Starting point is 01:26:32 Like, you know how you can put something to a tree when it's growing up and just absorbs it. Pieces of rebar. It's a metal tree. I hate my friends. Everyone's talking to be like, my friends do this. I'll be like, mine planted trees in my backyard. Those fucking pieces of shit. They're like, you have head problems, dude.
Starting point is 01:26:53 I don't know. How you know your friends made it. They start fucking doing that level. There's some organization to donate money to buy the trees. What was that? I have to be careful because there's a tree sanctuary a little bit past my backyard. So I can't touch those guys. It's about.
Starting point is 01:27:09 You're just in your backyard with an axe trying to set a tone for the rest of the park for us. Pretty much. Fuck this sanctuary, dude. You're saying, like, how do you know your friends have money? What was that story you said where it's like, are you pranking your rich friends? Or was it, was it Hafer? I can't, I can't fucking remember. But it was where in order to fuck with his, his body, he had like somebody dress up in like a medieval outfit and go read a decree to him.
Starting point is 01:27:39 No, I think it might have been an Evan Haver story. That sounds like an Evan Hafer story. But just, yeah, paid a dude to be like a medieval squire and show up in a board meeting and read a decree to his buddy. I've tried to remember where I heard that. That's the funny shit. I can't wait for all the stupid things you're going to end up doing to you guys now that I live close because it's going to be very entertaining for me.
Starting point is 01:27:58 My trees are in danger. Nico's going to have a bunch of trees. I'm putting all my trees in your guys' backyard. Good fucking luck, dude. Just wake up. We've got like the EWalk, like rolling traps and shit like that made out of Nico's trees. Mr. Brandon had his event. What was that called last night?
Starting point is 01:28:19 It was just a campaign kickoff event. Campaign kickoff. I was so confused. That's why. I was like, what is the point of this? Okay, he's doing this. What do we talk about? Okay, good.
Starting point is 01:28:29 But it went, that was awesome to see. It was good. That whole ass place was full of your supporters. Yeah, it was good. It was just over 150 people. We really put it together, like, I don't know, a couple days prior. It just kind of got thrown together.
Starting point is 01:28:42 We were like, oh, let's do this. You know, sent out a couple texts, whatever. Try to get a decent crowd there. And it was actually, I think it was, it worked really well. And, uh, no, I appreciate you guys for, for going up and speaking a little bit, uh, even though I was informed that nobody told you. That's fun. It was great.
Starting point is 01:29:00 Getting there, I was like, ah, here to support Brandon. My friend. I'll just. Microphone. Yeah. Yeah. And I was like, what's going on? And they're like, oh, you have to get up there and rally up the hypo.
Starting point is 01:29:08 hype up the people. Eli was ready, though. He's like, hey, guy. And it's like, gee! I was like, oh, that was loud. Oh, hey, okay. Hey, what's up? It's like, really loud.
Starting point is 01:29:18 It was good. You did great. You did great. He was like, oh, I'm getting a drink then. One drink. I'm getting in front of people. Bartender. One alcohol, please.
Starting point is 01:29:28 You had a guy show up in full body armor. There was a guy. And he was like, oh, you could, I was going to record you guys hitting me with like one of the weapons. I was like, oh, yeah, no, he wanted me to hit him. with an axe. I was like, buddy, we can't. I said, no. That's a lawsuit waiting and happen. And we love you with like dope, dope fucking armor. I love the energy, right? I can't hit you with a fucking axe at a campaign event. I'm sorry, that sets a very bad tone.
Starting point is 01:29:53 Oh God, you clip that out of context. A salts fan with medieval weaponry. Yeah, exactly. No, but it was all real stuff too, because he's like, oh yeah, dude, this is my armor and he's explaining it to me. It was dope. And I was like, hold on, dude. I'm not going to grope you. but can I feel your body owner? And I start feeling him and I'm, dude, this shit is like hardcore. It's like all super real. It's super thick. And he's like, yeah, it'll stop arrows, axes, maces and like all these things.
Starting point is 01:30:18 I'm like, he's going to have us hate him. You are protected. So I poked him in my eyes. So I made some sort of joke when he came up to me. I was just like, oh, dude, I see you're ready to travel to modern UK. That's great. Oh, God. It was a good time.
Starting point is 01:30:37 I had a lot of fun there And everyone was like super high in spirit And like super excited to see you The crowd's energy was awesome It was it was also just nice to see Like you know my friends coming out in support It meant a lot Nick
Starting point is 01:30:47 I wasn't there Piece of shit Sorry I was in Iowa Doing that I drove here for that You could have got on a plane You fuck Nick
Starting point is 01:30:58 Yeah Why didn't you come to this event That I didn't even know I was doing Until a few days ago No it's good We want to do a lot more of that stuff in the district this time just like doing bigger events and just showing the energy because, you know, the unsub live audience is just fucking incredible and like just I think with those bigger events, even if people aren't really
Starting point is 01:31:19 familiar with our stuff, obviously we have to tone it down like keep it a little bit more professional. It's not quite the unsub live show kind of thing. They were like, just brand his campaign. I was like, don't worry. I'm not going to. I won't even cussed. I'll behave today.
Starting point is 01:31:32 I swore one time on the campaign trail last time. Like swear, swear, like saying. fuck or something like that. Because I was actually, like, I know how to turn it up. People were like, oh, well, you know, your personality is this. I'm like, that's online. Like, I know how to turn it off and on, like, I know when to be professional, right? You know, you talk differently with your friends than you do a church or whatever.
Starting point is 01:31:51 Yeah. But I was at a San Antonio Young Republicans thing. It was right after the Republican convention for the state of Texas. And it was held at a distillery, strike one. But it was right. It was, their AC had gone out. So it was like 100 fucking degrees back there. and I remember going up there
Starting point is 01:32:08 I was like the third person to speak you know just giving a speech to the crowd that's there and I remember like I was joking around because it's younger people so you have a little bit like more of a relaxed rapport and I remember stopping like halfway through I'm like and these
Starting point is 01:32:23 you almost got me this is the first time you almost had it okay here's a serious question just because I'm not too familiar with it in the world of politics is that like a serious knock you if you do curse or no no I mean now like I mean you had J.D. Vance on Theo Vaughn saying fuck Trump says fuck privately a lot but publicly occasionally and like I just don't think people care as much anymore. The age of like 20 years ago yeah that was a huge problem like I could
Starting point is 01:32:57 have never run for office 10 15 years ago. A I was too young but be like just completely completely different world and I think Trump did open that up. to a large degree, but I think people are just, the Republican Party especially was much more like pearl clutching in that way. And I just don't think that's the case anymore. Fair enough. Just good, because that's the shit that doesn't matter. I'm like, I don't care about your personal life for the most part. It's like, I, I care about how you vote. It's not relatable. And people would know how you are like as a person, not that cursing like dictates who you are, but like, you know, shit flies on the internet and like you are who you are. So it's like,
Starting point is 01:33:32 why would it really matter? But you're obviously like an extreme professional. You do. so great. So it's like, why would it matter if it did fly once or twice when you're out there just talking openly to the people? So I was just serious. You know when to be professional and when it got loose and whatnot. But yeah, no, I just don't think like, and I know a lot of voters don't think this way, which is really kind of like I don't enjoy that mindset. I'm not running to be, to babysit your fucking kids, right? Like, why do you care what I do in my personal This is a choose your fighter loading screen for street fighter. This is not, who do I want to teach Sunday school?
Starting point is 01:34:11 Do you want a guy who's going to be like a scrappy boardroom guy who's made a lot of money like doing stuff like this, like knowing how to run businesses and knowing how to talk to people communicate in the real world? Or do you want a guy who's squeaky clean because he's always wanted power? He's always wanted to run. He kept a clean record because he just wants to be, oh, I'm Johnny on the spot. I don't curse in public. Fake.
Starting point is 01:34:32 And these are also like a lot of those. those people are some of the worst people behind closed doors. Because it's a screen. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You're faking everything. It's more terrifying, actually, because they're really good at putting up that front 24-7. So when are you getting the real version of them versus, oh, they don't give a shit.
Starting point is 01:34:50 This is how they talk. And then behind the screen, oh. There's certain politicians that I've talked to. I'll keep their names out of it. But there's certain people that I have talked to, like members of Congress, senators, stuff like that, where, you know, they've got that professionalism publicly. but then like we're on the phone or like we're meeting in person and as soon as they let it fly like one one thing like specific example we were talking about somebody that both of us didn't like and he goes listen here this little cock sucker and I was like now I'm talking to the real guy yeah the politician's screen the facade is down like now I'm talking to the real human and it's just weird it's weird how people have to do that I do not envy any of that nope like no I'm good buddy I'm good Nick, are you ever going to...
Starting point is 01:35:33 Smarter man than I? Huh? You ever going to do any of that? We'll see. If I get bored enough. Yeah. There you go. If I get injured enough, nothing's off.
Starting point is 01:35:43 I just, I just want to go out there and dunk on politicians. That part is pretty fun. Get him a basketball. He's actually just fucking dunking on dudes. I mean, you just look at their Twitter time. I don't want anything after travel, though. I just want to go to like, I want to be like governor of Iowa. I just want to be like, I want to, I just want to have.
Starting point is 01:36:02 I was going to say the biggest, literally the biggest job in all of Iowa, which like, representing all of like 80,000 people. Three million. Yeah. He knows. He's such a good future politician, bro. King of the cobs. You walk out with your corn cop, hell. Crown.
Starting point is 01:36:22 That would be very funny. Don to me. This is my now. What's the biggest city in Iowa, Des Moines? yeah yeah how many people live there uh 800 000 probably yeah dear god there is about that many people in my district yeah i mean san antonio and the surrounding area is like roughly the same population as a state of iowa seventh uh yeah actually yeah the the metropolitan area here because it's uh it's the seventh largest city in the country it doesn't feel like it though no it does when you try to
Starting point is 01:36:54 drive across it yeah if you actually go because we only stay on like the northwest side we stay in one little pizza sliver of San Antonio if you were like on this end and you drive to that end it's like an hour and a half with no traffic. Oh yeah. And there is traffic. You're fucked. That's why it's a big. That's why you don't go anywhere here at five o'clock. Fuck you. No, no. Again, like New Bromfels is
Starting point is 01:37:16 adjacent to us. Okay. And we won't go to New Bromfels because it's an hour and 20 minutes away on a good at five o'clock. That's wild. Yeah. And it's still San Antonio. Hang it up. It's still San Antonio. This is why I'm never leaving Iowa. everywhere we go here is 35 minutes away.
Starting point is 01:37:33 Groceries store, 35 minutes. Gas station, 35 minutes. Okay, does Iowa still have that shitty thing that Indiana does where they, like, you have open road where there is literally nothing you could hit. There is not a heartbeat within miles, but they still have like speed limits of like 45 miles an hour? All the back roads, like the highways and stuff,
Starting point is 01:37:53 are usually 55, but like everybody speeds. Nobody really cares. Out West Texas will, well, partially because it's like a necessity. Because, again, there's nothing there. But 85 miles an hour, baby. Right, but I think I, I'm assuming, I'm assuming the reason we don't do that is A, well, no, A, we have winter. We have winter and some asshole is still going to try to go 85 when there's ice on the ground.
Starting point is 01:38:20 Me. And B, there's so, there's so, there's so, there's so many farms and farm equipment has to use that road too. So some asshole is going to be on cruising. control going 85, come over a hill and there's a fucking harvester in the road trying to get to its next field and it's going to smoke it and... See, I don't want to hear these excuses.
Starting point is 01:38:39 That's fair. I live where shit grows. Sorry. You'd be surprised how much shit is grown in West Texas. I'm listening. Pecan's. We're actually one of the biggest producer of pecans in the entire country. Pecanes. Pecanes. Whatever the fuck. I know. And I like different
Starting point is 01:38:56 stuff like that. There's stuff like that. There's industries. There is agricultural industries in West Texas. Ask me how I know. How do you know? How to learn all this shit. Don't look at me. I don't know. Oh, really? I actually, no, I have, well, so I had to talk to a lot of these farmers and just kind of listen to some of their stories because they're talking about like border crisis shit. And they're giving me videos, like, especially like the pecan farmers out toward like El Paso way. But they're just like, yeah, this is us working on a tractor. And here's 30 dudes cutting our fences and just running through our property.
Starting point is 01:39:27 fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa fa that's technically a crime no they were running at me with knives i don't know god i don't know why all my clothes were off they just i just started punching me in the head and taking all my clothes off so i had to gas that shit out dear god never okay guys because my address may already be out there never come to my house unannounced like i'm just gonna fuck please i value my fans we were just trying to play up to my house like i can't stress it enough i'd be clutching on my neighbors and everything because i got like h-o-a and shit like that and i just immediately had to set the tone every single time they tried like gently pulling up into my driveway and i always have gun on me so i just clutch on my shit and i'm like oh my bad
Starting point is 01:40:15 never fucking come here unannounced or try and sneak up to my front fucking door are you right buy it oh no i'm in an h-o-a area and i still do whatever the fuck i got Just a psychopath and a G-wagon chopping down trees with a gun. So the new neighbor's interesting. If I saw that and that was my next-door neighbor, I would be like, hell yeah. It's better than a live-left love sticker. I have like the other day I was out in my driveway and my disability chair just kind of fucking about and I was making it a little short. And I had my rifle with a suppressor and I'm like, and my neighbors, you can see him through the window like, what the fuck?
Starting point is 01:40:51 And I'm like, I think he fakes disability. Dude, again, a G-Wagon pulls up. Nico gets out, runs to the backyard, don't know what he's wearing, grabs an axe, starts cutting. Also, there's, hey, guys, look up, Regal. And then the chair rolls by. I would not know what to think of my neighbor. Just don't come here.
Starting point is 01:41:10 Don't come to my house. They'd be like, what the fuck is wrong with him? So, Pewview got a new house with an acreage and a pond, and he's building a dope-ass gun range. That's cool. Like, rivaling Matt's gun range. Like, it's insane. No shit.
Starting point is 01:41:24 And he's got, it's like out in the country, no houses for literally miles, except for there's one house like 30 feet to the left of his house right on the property line. And he, he was straight up with them. He's like, look, I'll buy your house if you guys want. I'm putting a gun range in, whatever. And apparently he's, he's only shot like 90 rounds there. And they're just pissed. They already went to the county meeting.
Starting point is 01:41:52 Oh, you're fucking kidding. trying to get like the noise ordinances changed and shit, but like they checked all this before they bought the property and they're like, you guys live 10 miles out of the nearest town in the country? There's nothing you can do. So there's no like no minimum property requirement for shooting? No, I thought there is via county because I'm trying to do the same thing on my property line. But it's going to be different for state. Yeah. Because oh I. Okay. So out here in Texas, you need what 10? Yeah. 10 acres. And I'm like, fuck. All right. Well, that's my next goal is like 50 Acres. Iowa, you can shoot all the guns you want as long as it's not. I think the cutoff is like 10 PM. It's from like 10 PM to 6 a.m. You can't shoot other than that. But I mean, Pew View shoots 20,000 rounds a month probably. And they are already like coming for his life. They're already like super pissed about it and like there's nothing. I mean like like don't get me wrong. I understand as like a neighbor like that could be frustrating to see both sides. But then again like there's got to be some kind of middle ground. You guys can.
Starting point is 01:42:50 I mean, live civilly together. As long as you're not being an asshole and like doing a bunch of shit at like 11 o'clock at night. Yeah. Like, you know, like, come on. Be courteous. Even, even when I was out in the fucking country,
Starting point is 01:43:00 like my shop was out in the country and we had a range there. Uh, we weren't shooting like late night or anything like that. When the sun went down, we were done. Like, it's just trying to be nice to the neighbors that were like a mile away, you know? Yeah.

I've got a, you know, acre of land. I've got a house, white picket fence, two and half kids. I want to build a tree house in the backyard.

Starting point is 01:45:30 Say hi. We're going to make you famous. Yeah. I don't know how you still do live streaming, bro. There's no reasonable expectation of privacy and my property. Yeah. Pretty much. There's another one, Mr. Niko.
Starting point is 01:45:44 Thank you, bye-bye. Good. What are you working on right now? Uh, I got one video I want to do, but the guy's still alive, so I'm trying to talk to him and get permission to make the video about him. That's for him to die. Yeah, can you die, dude? Just kill yourself. Well, no, because I want to-
Starting point is 01:46:04 Waiting outside his house with an air horn first thing in the morning. It's like so I'm waiting. Jesus, Nick. No, dude's a badass. I just want to tell the story. It's dope. Who is it? Ed Eaton.
Starting point is 01:46:15 Probably like the coolest sniper that nobody's ever heard of. So he was in Vietnam and his chopper went down and he was like the only dude still not severely wounded from this chopper crash. He was a sniper. His sniper rifle got like broken and the scope was all fucked up. And it's at nighttime. And he had a starlight scope, which is like an early, it's kind of like an acog. Like it uses light to illuminate. So it's kind of early vision technology and he had the scope on a sniper rifle.
Starting point is 01:46:46 So he climbs up on top of this like burning helicopter. as they're getting attacked by an entire platoon of NVA. And he's alternating between his sniper rifle. He figured out the Kentucky windage of how fucked up his scope was on the fly. So he's doming dudes with his sniper rifle and swapping out and mag dumping with an M16 trying to convince him that there's more than one guy up there. Fights for like two hours till they metavac him out. That's horny.
Starting point is 01:47:12 And they get everybody loaded up on the plane. And one dude is injured. And the guy's like, I'm not going to make it. Just leave me. and he, like, grabs a grenade and pulls a pen. He's just going to hold it until they come to get him. He's going to blow himself up. And as the helicopter is taken off,
Starting point is 01:47:26 Ed Eaton jumps back out of the helicopter and defends that dude until the next helicopter shows up by himself. Holy fuck. Massive dick. Bro. Did he make him get rid of the grenade? I would like, you're calling me to me.
Starting point is 01:47:38 He's like, bro, you got to throw that. No. Dude's bleeding out. Like, grip starts relaxing. He was like, oh, shit. So the dude Are you back there, buddy? The dude makes it
Starting point is 01:47:53 And there's like an interview Where they're interviewing both of them Like here in both sides of the story from Ed And then the guy that he saved And the guy that he saved is like Ed told me he was going to save the last two bullets for us So he put the grenade back away Because like they weren't going to get caught by the NBA
Starting point is 01:48:08 But he ended up fighting off everybody by himself And saving the dude Jesus. So have you ever done a video before On somebody who is still alive? No shit. Nope. Not that I'm aware of.
Starting point is 01:48:21 Even fat files? Fat files, like, I'll cover CEOs and stuff, but, like, telling the story of a CEO versus telling, like, a war story. Like, I just, I don't know. If they're still alive, like, that's their story to tell. So I'm not going to tell it without their permission. That one would be a dope one. So I would, uh, which you just did for the record. Yeah, but I mean, no way.
Starting point is 01:48:39 Like, you can, that's, that's a cliff notes from like, they've already done a history channel, um, like greatest sniper shots. he was in that like that's all just from that that's nothing from like his book that he wrote which is called a may Kong mud dogs um so I'm trying to get him to work with me and he's like well you know I don't know if I have anything new to add to it we covered it in a book and I was on history channel and I was like I get that and like the book's great the history channel episode's great but the history channel thing was 15 years ago the book it hasn't been printed in 15 years like it's not about uncovering anything new it's like I want to expose this story to the next
Starting point is 01:49:16 generation. Re-release. More people will see it on your channel than they will ever see it on history. Exactly. It's like, you know what I mean? Like all these 20-year-old kids, like, what are the odds are going to run into your book, pick it up, and read it? And the way you're going to relay and portray this story and, like, give it to the viewer. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:49:32 Give it life. And that make the fat electrician. And I'll push the book after the fact and then, you know, hopefully you get more book sales. I hope you're still making money from that. So he said, you like, bro, when you're dead, I'm doing it. no if he tells me he doesn't want me to do it or never make you any doubt to you my boy is it if he tells you what
Starting point is 01:49:52 I said if he tells me he doesn't want me to do it I'll just never do the video so hopefully you're just like wearing down the timer on that one no but it is kind of cool like a lot of videos like probably 50% or more of the videos I do when I cover a war hero every like 50% of the time there's a comment in there that was like this was my uncle
Starting point is 01:50:11 this was my dad this I see a lot of those Like, then those are super cool. Like, I think Roy Benavides' daughter commented on my Roy Benavita's video. That's fucking cool. So, it's pretty. I've seen that a little bit in your comment sections. Yeah. They always wind up at the top.
Starting point is 01:50:27 Yeah. Because so many people like them. So that's pretty cool to see. It's fucking wild to see. And probably experience on your side. You're like, oh, that's dope. That reached that particular person. I'm just happy to like it.
Starting point is 01:50:36 So far I have avoided anybody being upset at me because then I'm going to feel bad. Like, oh, shit. Hey, you fucked up all these things. Didn't do a good job on that one, apparently. Well, no, I don't think you've ever, like, obviously, you've never portrayed anything in, like, a bad light. So I don't even see how that could come across and listen, but he's like, for some reason, way, shape, or form, like money hungry. And they're like, oh, you did this. And that's like my great, great, great, great, great, granddaddy, uncle baby mama.
Starting point is 01:50:59 I want a bill or two. Like, fuck off. But, I mean, most of the guys I cover, they've already had books about them. They've had history channel specials about them. They've had all this different stuff. I think, I think Cody's experienced that a couple times where people are like, hey, I was. in that video you released give me money yeah that's the same that happens every single video on my youtube and mine's just compilation shit really like so am i gonna get paid since like you did that and i'm
Starting point is 01:51:24 like bro what we keep your handle and shit in there like it's a promo shit for you if you want like no just send them back the definition of fair use no exactly and i'm like that's all my content is dude and like i don't have any paywalls i'm not even making like crazy buco bucks from it like i'm just like it's here for like for free for people who want to watch my shit i had a guy go schizo schizo on me one time for it was like a darwin awards clip it's like a dude just like you know uh doing the the 18 was it model 1887 like the the the loop thing like the terminator two oh yeah like that and it was a meme it wasn't even his original video it was i had no idea who the guy was but he had uh somebody made a meme of it where like as the guns flipping
Starting point is 01:52:09 back around toward the camera if for a minute kirk cobain pops up and it goes It's a great meme. And the guy's like, how dare you fucking say what I was doing was unsafe? Five days a blah, blah, blah. And just like, schizo ranted and like kept commenting and like commented on other people's stuff. Like, this guy's a piece of shitty, whatever. I'm like, pro, fuck off. Who people are crazy.
Starting point is 01:52:31 It's a joke. Like that wasn't even one where I'm like, oh, Darwin Award. Like, what a retard. I was just like, yeah, this is. I think it was just like a throwaway clip. It's funny. And it wasn't even his content. It was transformative because it was a meme.
Starting point is 01:52:43 some people just don't get it I just literally don't understand like why are you like I'm like you know you put this out there already right like you know this shit exists like you uploaded this shit for the world for eternity in all of life as you are living and when you are dead it will still be here why what get the fuck out of here like just stop why you mad dog yeah let's just kiss dude I would be we did we talk about like with the Shrek stuff that would be the heart most scary thing is you do it a video in the second you hit published then something comes out. Also another reason I don't cover people alive. Yes, exactly. Oh, I see. Yeah. Yeah. It's one of those things where it's like, okay, cool,
Starting point is 01:53:23 I released this video. You know who got caught with that? Popo Popo. Dude, Popo. We love you. Pompo medic did a video on track like six days before all the stuff came out or like the controversy about it. Do you want to address that a little bit so people don't think you're talking about the DreamWorks animated film? But yeah, so I have not, I don't know if the allegations are true or not. I haven't looked into it. I have no idea out of my pay grade on that, not a green beret, don't understand all the protocols. Basically, there's a John Shrek McPhee nicknamed the Sheriff of Baghdad.
Starting point is 01:53:59 He was in Delta Force, known for doing all these crazy missions. He's been on Joe Rogan. He's been, he's done the whole podcast tour. He's got a ton of viral clips out there, been interviewed a ton and was becoming like pretty big online military celebrity. and then popo medic did a video on him and his exploits and then like six days later there was a bunch of allegations that came out i have no idea if they're true or not haven't looked into them but there was just like stolen valoresque popo medic uh i don't think it was i don't know what it is i haven't heard what it is i'm curious because i just see some like oh paperwork doesn't lie and
Starting point is 01:54:31 i'm like i talked about on say how to eli how when i transitioned from the active army to the reservist component because i still have my erb versus my srb i'm like paperwork do lies sometime bro i'm gonna lie to you but like what i don't know what like but that's like my new shit and i'm like what do you mean like what happened according to what i heard i don't know if it's true he got his special forces tab revoked for doing something wrong and was kicked out of special forces and then retired as a regular master sergeant yes and that was covered in there but he was a delta force guy for years yeah i could give a class at that point if i if i was to be transferred i'm like bro he did cool guy shit. I'll never do cool guys shit like that. Good for you. And the thing is like,
Starting point is 01:55:14 I mean, those Delta dudes are just such high caliber individuals and people think like they drink and do all this crazy shit. And so like they're like act accordingly or you just like you're gone. Like not killed, but like you're not going to stay here. Like the big representation. So I don't know, let alone what those dudes go through. If you got kicked out like I can't imagine what you've already been through. So to me, I'm like if you are even an individual who's able to live in that lifestyle, which I could never do. Good on you. And if you fuck that, man, eat it, move on.
Starting point is 01:55:44 But, yeah. But no, I mean, my perspective was just like the, the suck factor for Popo Medico, who, like, just did a video on the guy that he thought was awesome. And then, like, by happenstance, six days later, all these allegations come out, whether they're true or not. And he's just getting lit up in his own comment section over, over it. So, like, he just kind of got screwed out of the gate. Because he didn't really do anything wrong.
Starting point is 01:56:03 Yeah, he didn't do anything wrong. He just operated on the information he was told that was out there. And then instantly, like, reality check. And you're like, oh, man, all the timing, and especially the timing, how dare you do this? The serendipitous of the timing would just suck. Dick, you're like, really? Six days after my video goes up. And the shitty part for him, he only uploads once a month.
Starting point is 01:56:23 Yeah. So it's like, it's just sitting in his algorithm as his newest video for 30 days. Shrek, Nick is not talking shit, by the way. Please don't kill him. Yeah, that's true. Thank you. We are just relaying information. Thank you.
Starting point is 01:56:35 Yeah, no, that would suck. But that's why I was like, okay, Ed Eaton, he's like in his 70s history channels done it. His book's done it. It's been out there long enough. If he was going to get called out, it would have got called out. So I was like, I'll, I'll do this guy by permission. You get propometic. I've had people react to my videos before that have like PhDs in history and they're like, this is wrong.
Starting point is 01:56:58 This is wrong. I had one dude that wrote an entire book disparaging a Medal of Honor recipient that did a three hour react to my video. going through like excruciating detail about how like actually there's no evidence of this and the first time it ever appeared in the historical record was three years after the fact in a newspaper article blah blah blah blah I was like the motherfucker has the Medal of Honor
Starting point is 01:57:23 the government said this happened like it is a wild thing to say like well there's no secondary resources to say that this happened to call out a Medal of Honor recipient the level of detail the level of level of detail they do on the back end when they're verifying your recipient doesn't know any of that shit's happening just like uh i think i mean uh clint yeah clint did he talk about it though yeah he talked about the fact like he didn't know why he was being brought to dc yeah and it was
Starting point is 01:57:51 on the walls yeah and it was like yes i was wondering if he talked about it he was he was talking about the fact that like he thought of like oh shit they found out about some stuff like the war crimes the war crimes yeah yeah so like he's being brought to this place in dc where they're like giving him a slideshow in the middle of honor and he's just like excuse me um why the fuck am i here they're like oh nobody told you his team had been talking for a six months to years leading up to him receiving it he just had no clue he thought it was as brandon said he said oh oh i like any soldier's minds like i'm like i like that though i like the fact that like it's such a like thorough process it's not a fucking participation trophy in any way shape or
Starting point is 01:58:31 form it's not a historian getting on there it's like well actually It's always, and it's happened multiple times with multiple Medal of Honor recipients, but they're always like, and like people that should be reputable, like historians and shit, and they're like, well, actually this story was most likely propaganda that the government signed off on to make the American military, or his chain of command did this to make them look good. And it's like, I don't understand the common sense, because it's always like some Medal of Honor recipient that like shit hit the fan, all of his guys were down and he turned into Captain America and saved the day. And it's like, from a chain of command perspective in the military, if you were trying to make yourself look good as a commanding officer that was offsite, what do you think makes you look better as a leader of men? Shit hit the fan and all of your guys followed protocol, did what they were supposed to do, what you trained them to do, and it got them through a horrible situation. Or the Terminator just happened to be there in time and save the motherfucking day for everybody. Not only that, but it's like from a chain of command perspective, like, why was shit in the first place? exactly yeah yeah it's like nobody's writing these dudes up because they think it's going to make them look good that this guy saved the day for their mission that they fucked up yeah like because there is a key factor in why i mean we can go to even that fight with clint it is the the fish bowl they decided to make that face yeah yeah and then you had even general george saying hey that's a terrible sun zoo take the low ground yeah brilliant side yeah i need elevation okay it's o veronican i'm
Starting point is 02:00:02 surrounded on all sides you fool and general george saying hey what the fuck are we doing here and then the leadership from that side being like no we're not changing it this is great and then that shit falls down and like okay okay actually we might have maybe fucked up i think two medal of honors came from that fight that i don't know i think but again which one you're talking about uh clint romichet red too it was him and then that one specialist no yeah the E5 and then the specialist, or the corporal? Yeah. I mean, they were calling for five.
Starting point is 02:00:36 You read about that entire sequence and you're like, holy shit. You're like, that's it. That's what it's a fucking about, dude. You're just, that's fucking whir. And then Clint, I mean, you guys have met Clint. He's the most unassuming kind, happy dude. Just a good old boy. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:00:50 They always are. Yeah. 100% of the time. Yeah. When you meet any of them, I'm like, oh, man, how are you doing? You're like, dear God. They are happy to be alive. Still, that is great.
Starting point is 02:01:05 At least, at least in my experience, like, they'll never be the one to tell you that they're a Medal of Honor recipient or anything like that. Like, they're just chill dudes, like, Clint straight up looks like an oil worker. Yeah. Because that's what he was doing before. Yes. It was just like that, just a normal, unassuming guy, super kind, super funny. Well, I think that's why, like, the aspect of getting the award in the first place is,
Starting point is 02:01:27 is, like, above yourself for all others. And so from that moment on to carry it even to now, you're like, oh, he didn't even give a fuck about that. That piece of metal was like about the team, about the boys, about the people around him. It's like, all I can do is do the best I can for everyone else. And that's definitely how he comes off talking to him. Yeah. Even Sal. Sal won't even curse.
Starting point is 02:01:46 So I was like, oh, frick, dude, it's great meeting you. Dang it. I'm like, bro, what? You don't curse? No, why would I? Like, nothing. I'm not going to say, these are no opinion at this sort at all, sir. I'm going to say, these people have kept funeral homes.
Starting point is 02:02:00 in business. Yeah. And they're just salted, just good as people. Fuck. Oh. Nick,
Starting point is 02:02:09 how goes, your training, you're still not drinking, you're fucking taking it super serious. Yeah. You're just trying to win. I don't even know the parameters
