We booked a house on Airbnb, and it was perfect for us. There were so many bedrooms, and everybody had their own bathroom, which made such a difference with how many people we had. - Yeah, especially with our big group. That could have been so chaotic, but it really wasn't. Everyone could get ready on their own time without feeling like they were being rushed, or getting in someone's way, or having to wait on someone. - Yeah, and it felt really open to. Like, even with all of us there, it never felt cramped or crowded, which definitely can happen with bigger groups. - Yeah, it felt less like we were trying to make something work, and more like it was all already set up for us. - Exactly, it was just really comfortable, and I feel like it made the whole trip go way smoother, because nobody was worried about things like space, or timing, or anything like that. - That's why, especially on bigger group trips, we always end up booking through Airbnb. It just makes everything easier from the jump, and makes the whole experience run way smoother. - Wow. - It happens. (laughter) - Nope. - What's your DM's like, be honest? (laughter) - Oh. - What was that? - That's a face. - We should bring his DMs. (laughter) - We should bring his DMs and read them right now. - Pull out the phone. (laughter) - No way. - I know what it's gonna be. - Maybe we should just go to the most followed person, like filter it to most follow and see. - You can do that. - Yeah, we should go with that. - You didn't know that? - You would do all your DMs. - You just broke it. - He's answering all the DMs. - Oh, no, no. - That's it. - It's not my job.

So I've been following the dog he does for a long time because your mom's grocery calls. I was like, wow, I mean, that's crazy. Is that for content? It's just like a grocery hot with a lot of seed as a lot. Lunch lunch, lunch, make it a little more. And then your Christmas haul. Like the Christmas haul is going insane. Like somebody added it up. Yeah. Who added it up early? Me. Somebody added it up when you're on TikTok and like broke down the cost of everything. And I won't say the number, but it was a high number. Well, no, let's just go ahead and say the number. Well, no, the number's not fine. We could say like we can say like how many zeros I say number and you say higher lower. I don't even know. And I'm the one who goes out there and buys me with my parents. What are your parents do? So my mom does content. Yeah. And my dad is a teacher and he does. He coaches track and football. So take all the money. Yeah. And I played football for a while. Okay. So y'all saving all year for Christmas. Yeah. Did you go on family vacations growing up? Yeah. Oh my goodness. Well, and you have 10 siblings. Yeah. I think I could name them all. I'm such a doctor. Let's not want to hear that because someone I someone said they were the biggest fan today. They couldn't name a single one. Oh my gosh. Okay. Pause. I can do this. Alex James. Day. Sean. Patrick and Bri. How many is that? Five. Dash. Bodee. Harley. Jordan. Jason. You missed two. Two. Wait, wait, wait, I got him. I got him. Bri. You already said. I said Bri and Jason. Zoe. Yep. And I said, Dash. I said, Bodee. Is that the anchor? Wait, wait, you said, Dash. I said, then you're good. Oh my gosh. I did it. Wow. Wow. You forgot. I did. Is that what everybody? Everyone calls like an ankle-biter. No, that's that's that's the youngest. What's her name? Harley. That's I like that one. She's seven, but when you're all this sibling, me 20. Yeah. So what's that like 20 to seven? Oh my god. Wait, so you're 20 and the youngest is seven. Yeah. Oh my god. My dad won't even like retire until Harley graduates. Really? Wow. Do you got a young dad or old dad like how old is he? I don't even know my my own. Could you name the age of all your siblings? No. Nope. Do you know all their birthdays? Nope. Oh, I mean, that's a lot of. I got two siblings. I only know one of them. And that's only because I have to know his birthday. Right. Did you tell any happy birthday? Her birthday was two days ago. Did you tell her happy birthday? Yeah, she never answered my call. I know. We did text her and call her and then she didn't get back to her. Oh my god. So are you closer to your siblings? Or like, I mean, as close as you can be with 10 siblings? Honestly, yeah, family's a big part of like just who I am. And like me and my mom, we literally do one-on-ones with all the kids. Let's say do you guys one-on-ones like one-one's like one-of-a-ones? Like I bring some of my siblings to like to get food or like go out to the field. You know, like, just hang out with the kids. You know, like that because it's hard. To be in a big family. Yeah, and you have the intentional. Yeah. And there's like as you're in a big family, you don't get the attention as some of the other. other kids do. You know what I mean? And so as someone that's grew up with that, you got to be able to hang out with all. So it's that's true, that's true. Yeah. Just like being intentional. Yeah. Do you want to have kids one day? Honestly, if I wanted to have kids, I would foster it about. Really? Only because since I was adopted, it's a big part of who I am. And those, that's just something I would want to do. Were you fostered to adopt or were you just adopted? So I was just adopted, but I was like living in the house for like two weeks before I got adopted. Okay. Why would you want to foster to adopt over just adoption? I mean, foster or adopt. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So I don't know if you know, just in New York state, there's about well, around the whole world, there's 400,000 kids that are in foster care right now. And it's crazy. Yeah. And they're going house to house or living on the like agencies, floors. And as they're 18, they, some of them don't even get houses. Yeah. And that's just kind of why I want to do with that. Yeah. Why would I let kids age out? Yeah. Yeah. So is that how your parents ended up with like so many kids? Yeah. Are they all ginger? No. No. I thought they were all ginger. No. So none of my, none of my mom's biological kids. Do you do that? All of them being all ginger. Well, I thought that for some reason I saw something on TikTok where I was like, I think she's profiling the kids she adopts. No, I really thought that it was like she adopted, you have 12 siblings right? 10. 10. Gosh. I thought, bye. I thought you, like what's it called? They were all ginger and your mom adopted all ginger kids. But I think that's another family. I know. I might be a different family. Yeah. Okay. So how did you go from, because that's all I always saw like the Christmas videos and like all that. And then all of a sudden you popped up and you're in sororities and ask what that, what's going on? So yeah, what happened there? Like, where are the in between happens? So honestly, like, I wanted to take content more seriously. And I kind of just had like the idea of going around campuses. And then I got like an email from a college saying, yo, I want to have you at my sorority like something. And it was just like, okay. So that first one kind of like open the door to you. Okay. So like, I have a fall tour coming up for all sororities. What a tour, man. And there's about 700 sororities at the end. 700. Yeah. Oh my gosh. Wait, I'm so confused. What do you mean 700? 700 sororities DMed or emailed. Oh, but you didn't say all of them. We haven't even figured out the tour yet. Oh. Oh my. Wait. I think it's still climbing. Maybe I like some because there's like several sororities at each school. But like, I'm going to try and hit all 50 states. Wait. So what are you talking about? Wait, you should try and trade in it. Is it like funny comedy you talk about? I talk about pretty much like my life and how I became to like who I am. And like, my story, my story and stuff like that. And they also ask me questions. So it's like, it's kind of, yeah, it's open. It's like Q&A. Okay. Wow. That's cool. How the, what's the quote of the day? Like, how did you start that? Is that something you actually do? Yeah. Like every day? Yeah. I just posted, I think one today. What's the quote today? Oh crap. And how do you make it up from scratch? Or do you like? So I write down a lot in like my Google docs. And, and then I just say them. So, um, this one literally was just today. I literally was before I came here was, we put it up to the mic. Oh, right now, my quote of the day is, you can't wait for inspiration. It's, uh, it comes all working. My quote of the day is, bitches fight daily, lawyers fight cases. Got money. So I wasted on 30 road bracelets. Wow. That's what I was interested in. So one of the guys. No, one of them was more interesting. No more inspiration with hash 9,000. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Can you give us like a, you really set him up because yours was like really sweet and inspirational. And it's just, no, that's like, and it kind of like just resembles like who we both are. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Can you give us like, right. Yeah. Can you give us like a fresh quote of the day like for the podcast? Um, you're putting him on the spot. Yeah, you are putting in your notes. Okay. Can I? Okay. I literally do it. Wow. We're going to tell you when this gets posted. So that can be your quote of the day or double quotes of the day. I could just do two quotes today. Do you get your quotes from chat GPT? No. No, not a single one. No, I write all of these me and my like team. You all write these. Hey, that other kid. I'm pretty sure his is from chat GPT. Well, at least that as soon as I asked him, yo, can we do the quarter of the dude? I already have 13 in my head. I'm like, I want to hear a ball. Um, let's do this one. We'll do a hero isn't someone who avoids hard times. It's someone who protects their family through them. That's my mom. Oh, that's so sweet. Why is Big Red making me emotional? Really? All the girls. Let me see. Oh my gosh. This podcast never been sweet like this. Yeah. Okay. I could ask so many emotional questions right now, but I'm not going to. I want to know the craziest thing that's happened on a stream on a stream. Yes. Like something that's just like, oh my gosh, can not believe we caught that on camera. Um, I would have to say it was at when I was at Penn State, they had their spring game. Did you get kicked out of this one? No, no, I didn't. I don't know. I kicked out of anywhere. Oh, okay. Luckily. Um, but so they had a blue and white game like against their own teams. Uh, and I was in the tailgate in area. Um, actually, I'll just pull out the clips at this point. Oh my gosh. He's like, then I'll just copy right your whole podcast. Are you going to any colleges while you're here? Uh, no. So since they're all closed, there's no reason to. True. Yeah, they're out for the summer. Oh, thank you. They got out like last week. Um, wait, so what's the summer look like for you? Uh, the summer actually is looking like a lot of traveling. Um, like for fun. No, not just for fun. Like what are you doing when you travel if you're not going to colleges? So you're good. We'll skip to when we have the clip. But no, so that's how many people literally follow me. Oh my gosh. Start a mob. Oh, I got a whole blockade. What are they following you for just beyond the stream? No, they just because he's a leader. He's a leader. This is over. Yeah. Can you have you ever seen, or can you clearly know when or is around people flock when when big reds around or is around or that? Oh, maybe it's vice versa. Yeah. It's being which hoppers since you were in his DMs. Oh my god. He's never going to let it go. So this one too, uh, I literally have people like running down the street. Oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. Just just to say hi to me. Like it's honestly weird. And this was just started like around this year. Yeah. So I first went, uh, I first went to, uh, Maryland. Um, so I stopped at in Maryland. I stopped at, um, Maryland University, Townsend, and that was it, right? Just feel like the first thing. Uh, and then as soon as that happened, all these other colleges were hitting me up, saying like, yo, can you pop by? Can you pop by? I was like, fine. I was like, okay. So then as soon as I got that, I went down to Bucknell. Um, Penn State, Pittsburgh, and I hit Penn State again. Um, and two of them, well, no, Bucknell, no, it was Pittsburgh. And yeah, Pittsburgh, I got stormed in Chipotle. Oh my gosh. I literally like made Chipotle an ad pretty much. That was how it was. Wait. So when you're stormed in Chipotle, they still don't kick you out. No, because the workers, the workers would kick you out. The workers knew me. Oh my gosh. Yeah. That makes it. Yeah. The workers knew us how that chileys and they still wanted to kick us out. Well, I was in line and you just see four, like, I would say 80 people running in the wild. I want to do it. I want to see. I honestly think you guys should start. Uh, I think or or it could just literally be the behind the scenes of your podcast. Oh, so you can't do that either. Why? Because some people on that. We cut a lot out of the podcast. I say some crazy things. Okay. But like, that's the thing. Like, when you're streaming, you'll learn kick. Don't matter. Like, kick doesn't care. But the world cares. Yeah. Yeah. Kick doesn't care. Okay, but here's a thing. Here's a thing. Why care what other people think? Oh, no. Yeah. Please. I've been telling that. It really does sound like. Oh my gosh. But like, what if you get canceled? Like, what if you say something? Who cares? It's more about your pockets. Thank you Canceled if you say try the only reason you can cancel the zip the actual platform decides to take you off Yeah, then you're cooked have you all seen that kid that is like just a troll and goes into these different fast food chain fast food Like sit down fast. Oh sit like sit down. They're like actually drive like drive through like nice restaurants like McDonald's and stuff In there and he's like trolling the workers and what how many years was it like seven years maf Nine nine years. He's facing nine years in prison for a silly take talk video because he's harassing the employees That's crazy. Well. I'm just gonna go out on a limb here and say what everybody did to get nine years was not a silly take No, I'm telling you it is I can tell you right now was did they get the security cameras like footage? Yeah, so they can footage everything he didn't go back. I think they're it's probably it's got to be some other prank He did, but that was the one that initially got the cops called on him, but I think he's done There's warnings. Yeah, I think he's had a different war friends. It's one of them That went like they went to like a discount tire type tire shop place and him and his buddies all show and they say hey We're here from corporate you guys are all we're letting you guys go. We're the new team. They go in and start like changing tires That's probably why like a manager person comes out after like a couple minutes and like kicks him all out They all run away. They didn't take anything didn't break anything didn't hurt anything But it's still like yeah, it's still very yeah, so it's like it's definitely like you know crazy So I don't really want to be honest. I've been seeing people like steal a car and they don't get nine years For voluntarily changing someone's tie her mind. What is what is the world come to man? Yeah, what are your socks? Oh Actually my socks are they safe in red? Show mom. Show mom. Wait. Are you selling us?

Well, how Do you find it easier or harder to date now that you've been on social media? I mean cash wants to know all his business. Yeah, podcast. Hello Intimate business. I've got a better question. Have you ever won Monopoly what? You're winning Monopoly even by living right now Oh my god, I saw a guy anyways. I brought this up because I saw a guy That said the way to win Monopoly is to never build hotels and only build houses No, I won Monopoly only so many house pieces in the game. No, I won Monopoly. I promise you I buy hotels and houses Yeah, when you buy that when you build the hotel then the house is the back of the You make more money off of hotels though. Yes, no, it's a theory listen So let's say in the whole Monopoly game, there's only 30 house pieces Men this is one of the things I just don't want to listen. I would turn on every time you upgrade to a hotel Those house pieces go back to the pile so other people can build houses, but you can hold them hostage. That's cool Me and cash are talking about yeah, totally beat you in a one-be-one monopoly No, because I don't want such a waste of time. No, yeah, we're up to me talking about Monopoly to one Yeah, little reds trying to talk right now pipe down little boy. Okay. I'm trying to say something So I usually have like the orange things and I know I use it no way. I'm Tennessee. Oh my gosh Can you just think why and let me talk for something? I have like the orange avenues the blue avenues and sometimes the red avenues You talk about it and then I put it to them. Yes, that's good. I'm happy. Yeah, thank you Like the one person that believes me out of all this I know that we're having a lot of the conversation Oh, I was trying to ask him was do you find it easier or harder today now that you're on social media said harder really wait really? Yeah, obviously it's harder. I feel you've been it got easier for me Well, it's it's honestly harder because The way of people now come up to you in my generation like being 20 Oh, because it's like now you have so many options because you're famous. No, I don't even call them up like the automatic Coke machine where it's like so many options. He said they're not even options. Obviously. They're not even options Oh my god. It's because honestly, they'll if you Really talk to someone well You would understand that they're just gonna use you and use you for your money use you for the things and there's stuff like so people ask you for money Oh, yeah, they do that's a hard for two. I always tell her no wait. What do you say when they ask you for money? Go get a job That's perfect. Yeah, I need to say that. I just just say that or say where's your nine to five? James Chuck's tried that But there's a there's a way When people are just walking up to you because they like No, those are trolls. They're always like it's always people you go to school with they're like can you can you buy my talk about today? Oh, it's different. I literally have people in my DM saying can you pay for my car? Can you like oh? Can you buy my new can you buy this car for you don't respond? Yeah, no, yeah, so you get like the spear airlines messages or like What they're not a thing anymore? No like the like the like the like he said the one it's like I lost my job in Oh I've never gotten a spirit airlines Right over my head. Yeah We got it. I feel like it's harder today online or no not day online like have because like when half of the people come up to you It's more like trolls than anything and it's like dude like come on. So yeah, I agree with that It's like I feel like before it was a lot easier to talk to people and like resonate with them instead because now they're like How much money do you make or you like your hopper's home or blah blah? Or like yeah, wait you I bet they do the same thing to you. Yeah, so it's like we us for like we don't really do a whole lot We just hang out at our house because they're reading like we're just like I don't know like we don't go We're not trolled I didn't go out every day In the basketball volleyball you trolled yeah, you should hear the things the 12 year old say about you - Yeah, you get trolled a lot, you just don't know. - Oh man, no, she just didn't get out to hear it. - I can't barely believe my house more. - Nah, yeah, but for me-- - Honestly, don't leave your house. (laughing) - It's like, stay safe. - I meant to ask, so what happened in New Jersey? - Oh, so it was like my first year back after a year off 'cause I was like doing busy, I was busy doing like sports and other things. And I went back and I just wanted to leave this pent time with some of my siblings on the boardwalk at night. And then next thing you know, I'm literally getting jumped on and-- - It's not saying guy, right? - No, these were like-- - This was like a whole mob. - Wait, up who? - What? - Random people that I don't even know. - Like fans? - Yeah, fans. - And so you-- - I can't step on the boardwalk in Ocean City without getting used to it. - Oh my gosh. - What? - It's like, Ocean City, New Jersey has-- - I really probably also know that you guys live there now. - I don't live there now. Like, it's like-- - I don't know, it's like travels. - Like I travel there, like at least we used to travel there at least two times a year. - So what was happening when you went there this last time? - I was literally getting like jumped on. I got my crocs taken off my feet. - Oh my gosh. - Oh my gosh. - This is what that's called jumped up. - Oh my gosh. - No, it's actually not because I literally had like, one of them fell off and then I was like-- - You didn't have to strap on, did you? - Yeah. - I did not have-- - You're not. - I did not have-- - Your fault. - So I, one of them fell off and I was like, you know, keep it and I just threw the other one out of my-- (laughing) - He's like, they stole my, I threw my shoes at them. - I was like, they took the other one. So I was like, just keep the other one. - It was just you and one of your siblings? - Yeah. - What did you do? - We just started running. - And then we ran to like the amusement park. And then we got chased more and there. - That was not the good moves at the time. - And then as we got out, the police like stopped me with everyone around me. I'm like, and they didn't do anything about it. - Yeah, that's stupid. - And it's like, you're like missing your shoes and everything. - Yeah, I miss them on I go to the cops. I miss them on the boardwalk. - I have my shirts ripped. - Oh my gosh. - That's why they ripped your shirt? - Yeah, because I'm on many people like literally jumping on my back. - What do you think it was, wow. - Yeah, there were kids, teenagers. I think I have the video. - That sounds terrible. - That sounds like an experience in high school that I experienced something like. - It reminds me of that one show that I was like walking through the crowd. - I just feel like I'm missing out on Jersey. I think we need to give him this. I'm going to be there next week. - Why are you going back? Why are you like this, period, aren't you? He likes the trouble. - He wants to go back to the pier. - Put your strap on this time. - It's literally like a video of me like literally running because I love that. - That's so scary. - I just have, there's literally then people jumping on my back. - Yeah, that's weird. - That's literally harassment. - Yeah. - Oh yeah, people just follow you everywhere. - That's so crazy. - And it's like people don't give me the time of day at all. - 'Cause they just, how old was this sibling you were with? - How old was he? - Yeah. - This was like, I think a year ago. - Remember, he doesn't remember his sibling's ages. - Around which sibling were with him. - He was 15 after time. - Okay, okay, that's fine. I was thinking like, if it was like the little one, that's scary because they can speak to each other. - No, they would not be on the boardwalk at 10 at night. - Yeah. - Oh. - Especially, yeah, no. - That's so scary. - No. - So what do you, what do you feel about people on the internet? Like, what do you feel like everyone has like wrong about you? That people think? - He's misunderstood. - I really am. - Yeah. - Because everyone thinks I'm like this terrible guy, you know? - Wait, terrible. Why did they do this to your therapist? - Don't ask me, that's them. - I don't think everyone thinks you're terrible. - People like, well, people low-key just hate on me for no reason, you know? - It's like existing. - Like, day ruined at blah, blah, blah time. - Or whatever. - You get that too or no? - Yeah, yeah. - Oh, make sure. - It's just a redhead thing apparently. - Yeah, I get that. - No, it's not his who. - No way, I actually do get that. I got that on one of my other posts. They're like, my day was ruined at 11.47. And I'm like, okay, sorry. - Just don't answer. Honestly, it's just more engagement at this point. - Yeah. - Like, that's how I take it. Like, if you're commenting negative, I think as you click on the profile, it always says follow back. - Oh my gosh. - I know. - Let's check, 'cause I probably have one in my recent video. - Oh yeah. - Doing a field test. - Can you screen it? - Can you screen it? - So we can pop it up and see if they have it. - Kate and I were talking about how people comment that the other day, but people have now started to comment, like, like, my day is joyous forever. - Or like, life saved. - Life is saved at one of the times. - Yeah, yeah. Day ruined at 6.05 p.m. Day ruined at 4.12 p.m. - Wait, click on the profile, so they follow you? That one's not followed, no. - Well, at least they're loyal. - I'm sure we're loyal. - I wish you could see there, like, if they liked your videos, 'cause I bet they did. - Oh, yeah. - Probably. - Probably. - Yeah, so what do you feel like people have, have you misunderstood on them? - I just don't even know. Like, my whole life's just on the internet at this point. - Yeah. - When did y'all start making videos? - So me and my mom started in 2020, COVID. - Okay. - 'Cause we've been like, six years. - Yeah. - That's crazy. - We, like, we kinda, like, just hopped on it, 'cause, like, everyone else was doing it, and we were just bored, and, like, - Yeah. - Might as well. And then one of our videos actually had, like, I don't even know, like, 10 to 15 million views. And we kinda just started doing it even more, and it kinda just turned into us going separate, but we still have the Dockery dozen, so I had my own account. But then that one got banned. - Oh, that's sucks. - 'Cause that was on the rage. - Right, so. - That happens all the time with Tiktok. - Yeah. - Like, 600,000 at 2021, and I was like-- - Wait, your account or Dockery does my account? - Oh, my God. - Hey, but you came back. - That's it. - You just 700 came out. - It took a little bit, but. - Dude, what's, like, the next thing you're gonna do, though? Like, you're doing, like, the tour, the tour, the sorority house tour, and those things. But is there, like, like, I don't know. - What do you mean, he's got Sox, he's selling, too. - He's got Sox, but I'm looking for, like, a rap track, or something. - Oh, I said that. - Oh, rap track? - I said that tour. Or a homie that was doing it earlier, I said, he needs a song. - Yeah. - Like, Big Red. - Big Red. - Big Red. - No, that's, like, too cheesy. Like, it could be a legit song. - Yeah, I agree. - I don't know. I kind of just, like, honestly, you can just make a song from AI, and then it'll be true. - No, don't do that, though. Don't do that. - No, but they're local. - You can tire. - Yeah, but you can tire. - Thank you. - They're local. - I'm making a song to the shower, man. - I hate AI music. - No, 'cause this is what you do. You literally just put in, like, a script, like, make a song about big ride of visiting Dallas, right? - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah. - Big Red visited Dallas. - Like on Suno, you're talking about-- - I don't make them. - You can tell a lot of them, though, but, I mean, you can obviously refine it and make it sound better. - But that just takes away every good thing about a song. The fact that it's just artificially made, and there was no brain power or thought or person or heart. - What do you mean? - Here's the way AI is so smart. It had a lot of brain power. - Yeah, but here's the way I see it. It's like, there's AI, which is, like, the AI music is, don't get me wrong. You could play me an AI song, and I'd be like, yeah, this is great. I probably wouldn't even know the difference. But once you do know the difference, it takes away from-- - No, it does. - Like, if I was looking at what I think is the Mona Lisa right in front of me, and then you guys, like, just kidding, we printed that off on the computer, I'd be like, oh, I'm not going to look at it anymore. But if I know that it's the real one, I'm like, oh, man, look at this. Like, the details, like, going into it, because it's like, what was the artist thinking, like, all this stuff? You pay attention to it. But like, I don't think people really see it anymore. Like, they don't see the AI things at all. - That's true. - I just think it's, once you know, if you know. - Yeah, once you know it's AI, it's like, oh, then you just-- - I'm just going to say, I hope they, like, eventually, like, if it's on Spotify or something, they make it where it has to be, like, tagged. - Yeah, that's like labeled AI. - Yeah, like how they do a video. - I posted a TikTok video the other day and it said, made by AI, and everyone in my comment section was just like, how is this AI? Because it was my voice. I was like, speaking. It was like, yeah, voice over. - Yeah, which makes it-- - That might be the most insulting thing, like, about your iPhone to duty, which is all the AI generation. - I was like, with the heck, I didn't get pushed out as much, because now it's AI content, and I'm like, what the-- - No, I mean, I made an AI video on actual AI video, and it was like that baseball trend, and it was like, like, everybody, like, was flaming me in the comments. - Yours was so good. Me and Mab tried at 5,000 times, and I looked like-- - I had to say that you're old, and I'm not gonna talk. - It did go bad. - Have you done that, Trin? - What? - The baseball trend? - No, no. - I spent $20 on this. - That's what I looked so good! - No, I had to get, like, the photo right, and then I had to go to Chad's TVT to get it right, and then finally, I got to go photo. - Why don't you just use cap cut? - Well, I did, but then it said, not available in the region, so then I had to go to this other app. - In the region, I've seen people from-- - I know, I know, it was stupid, but-- - Do you have a VPN on or something that's making it in the video? - Probably, I don't know. - I'm pretty sure my phone got hacked because I was on Twitter the other day, and I clicked on Twitter. - You get on Twitter? - Oh, I like to watch fights on Twitter. - Me too! - Me too! - My Instagram feed is literally people getting hit by cars. - Oh my God! - That's so cool! - My Instagram feed is very different. - My Instagram feed is just-- - It's brutal out there. - Yeah, and then I go on Twitter, I go on Twitter just to watch people just-- - Yeah, it's like an out-of-view. - What are you watching? - Now I have to really try to pay attention to make sure it's not AI. - Yeah. - In a lot of us, sure. - I'll be watching it. It takes me four or five times, and I'm like-- - 'Cause a lot of those videos, now that are on Instagram, are really good, but there are AI. - Yeah. - So it's like-- - Not my book videos, y'all stay safe, though. - How did that-- - How did your video start from the doggery doesn't to what you're doing now? 'Cause I don't know if you accepted or not, but you do have a aura. Like when you go to the campuses, and they're all following you, that is a aura. - So how did that happen? - Honestly, I don't really know. I just showed up at a, like a sorority streaming. And, like- - People just like, there's people just like, I was just going in. - Yeah, I don't think you can ask someone how they got or, I just did, and he's answering to the seat. - Honestly, I don't really think, like, if the scribe or it's in me, please. - So when you walk in, it's like describing consciousness. - Yeah. - I know, no, it's like, when you walk in, everyone's like, you got their phones out, it's like, as old. When you're going to Chipotle, everyone's following you. - Okay, here's the thing. - Let me tell you this, when you're, when your shoes are gonna rip off and your t-shirts get ripped. - Like, what kind of video is were you making? That everyone was like, oh, I love this content. - No, I feel like the E85 dance, like, did a number for you. - It really did, and I'm gonna shout out to actually, the person that actually made the dance faith. She was here, like, last week, wasn't she? - She was here, not last week. Like a month ago, we had a marathon. - She made that video, she made that dance. - She did. - Yeah. - Woo, good job. - I know, I'm so happy for you. - And now everyone's doing it. - Everyone. - But every, but here's the thing, here's the thing. I literally, and like, people on CapCut have like, green screens up to me. - Yeah. - Doing the dance. - Yeah. - And then people now use it. - Can you do that? - That's what I'm saying. So that, that even there is, or, so how did all that happen from, like, I feel like it all happened like this year pretty much. - It pretty much happened in the last two weeks. I'm not two weeks, two months. - Yeah. - Honestly, I did that dance, and I didn't realize like, I woke up next day with like, six million views. - That's crazy. - And it was like, to the point I was like, I didn't think it was gonna happen. - Right. - I just, like, me personally, when I post, I don't care. Like, TikTok is just to build a community. And it's like, you can't really get paid from it much. So it's like. - I need to listen to that. Because like, I'm always worried. I'm like, what if this isn't gonna do good, but I'm just gonna like, do it. - Let's do it. Like, honestly, like, who cares? Like, they're all talking through a screen. It's just, they're talking through a screen. Like, there's no way that people are gonna, like, I hear like. - Okay, so are we. - I get that, but we're at the same time. - We're showing our faces. They hide behind the screen. - Yeah, they hide in behind the screen. - Right. - Right on the screen. - And I like, like, I know like, I don't know if Harper actually has a stalker, but like, it's to the point, they're calling you from a screen. They're not actually showing their face. - Exactly. - You know what I mean? - So it's, nothing's gonna happen unless it happens. Like, you know, like, you'll know. - Yeah, 100%. - Right now, I can say, like, they're probably just throwing you. - I hope so. - So, I have a question. If you had to fight cash to the death, do you think you'd win? What? - Why are we talking about fighting here? - I have pocket knives. - No pocket knives in this situation. - No pocket knives? - No pocket knives, okay. What does he have? - Nothing. - Nothing. - You have to fight to the death. - Honestly, I think Alex might win. - I think he does, Harper. - I bet you would say that. - I think you'll, I think you'll both be tied up. - I bet you will. - You're like the same height. - Yeah, but he has people on this team that throw rocks. So. (laughing) - I can tell you this. If someone sees someone hit me, there's, you're not, like, I'm not the only one to fight. - They just, wait, what? - You've got two bodyguards. - Oh. - Hey. - Is that that guy? - No. (laughing) - That's my tell, please. - No, like, that's my tour manager over there. So. - You have a lot of team members. - I think I have about, like, 15. - So, I guess the follow-up question that would be, will you guys fight? - What? - To the death. - No, no. - Why don't we do it like to the death? - Okay, why don't we just, why don't you guys just, like, E85, like, to the death? - Yeah, E85. - What is that? - The dance. - My dance. - Oh. (laughing) - Is that your favorite part? - So everyone says it is, but honestly, I don't really have a favorite part. - Do you play basketball, though? - Look, 'cause that's like a-- - I do, though. - Really? - Wow. - I play at the Y with my lot of my boys, so. - Hey. - That's fine. - Yeah, so. - Hey. - Can you do this? - I lost so much weight to the point where, like, I've lost, like, so much about, of my mobility, and now I'm trying to get that back and stuff, so. - Hey. - Did you just randomly want to lock in one day, or-- - So, honestly, so, sometimes, the hate does get to me. - Yeah, for sure. So, I kind of locked in one day at the gym, and I was like, like, why do people care, you know? And I kind of just started going, and this was also after I broke up with my ex at the time, too. - That's normally what that was. - Yeah, so-- - The gym arc. - Wait, wait, so you, like, you guys break up, and you're like, okay, I got a, like, villain arc, loading. - Oh, villain arc, that's what I'm talking about. - If it's fine with me asking, I saw it online. You lost, like, around 100 pounds. - So, I was originally at 315. - Okay. - You lost 100 pounds? - Oh my god. - That was very hard. - So, wow. So, I'll tell you the story. So, it was the time-- So, this was when I was with my ex at the time, too. So, I was 315 when I was with her, right? And I went down to 185, very unhealthy, very unhealthy, 'cause I needed to do it from football, you know? - Oh, yeah, yeah. - And then-- - 200, around-- - That was, it was almost around 200. - Holy crap! - I'm six three. - Six, three, and how much? - Right now or-- - No, four. - Then, I went down from 315 to 185. - That's really light for six, three. - That's insane. - But no, like, that's also very unhealthy. - Yeah, yeah. - So, it's losing that in, like, three, four months, too. - Three to four months? - Oh my god. - I had to do it a lot of times. - Look, watch, ready? Ew, harbor star! - I'm dislocating my arm as we speak. Wait, wait, let me just get in them. Ew! - Yeah. - And, my thumb, I can just, like, ready? - Oh. - No! - Oh! - Wait, why are you getting that reaction? - Because that was crazy. - Okay. - What are you doing? - Wait, so, do you, wait, hold on. Because that's not, you don't think that's normal, right? Like-- - No, I broke my growth plate here. - Okay. - This hand is smaller than this hand. - How do you know that? - What? - Put 'em together, let's see. - Wait, how do you know that? Did you go to the doctor? - Oh my gosh, it's true. - Oh! (laughing) - Are you okay? - Wait, that's crazy. - That's crazy. - Yeah, this hand is smaller. - Hold 'em up. No, hold 'em up like this. - Like what? - I can see you. - I broke this growth plate right here. - That's crazy. - During football. So, all of my injuries really have been during football and I just dug it out. - Yeah, dug it out. - That's built different. - He's built different. - Okay, wait, so you were at 315, you lost all that weight. You got to 185, but unhealthily. - Yes. - Is that a right word? - Yes. - Yeah, I'm healthy, yeah. - And what'd you do? - Personally, I just, my mom started doing the snappity boards. I started eating them. (laughing) - He's like, he wanted the ribs for us. (laughing) - He wanted the snappity board, but hey. - What's on those? What's on those? - Everything. - We should have made a snappity board. - Oh, we should have made a snappity board. - Did you make a snappity board? Or do you have been offended? - No, the sorority is making a snappity board. - Okay, maybe next time when you come back, I'll make you a snappity board. - But now you're on like your fitness journey. - I feel like you can't be eating all the snappity boards. - Oh, is that why you said no to the red bull? I mean, not red bull. - The big red bull? - What does that call a big red? - Yeah, it's also, I've already had one yesterday, so it's like, I don't really tend to drink soda. - Yeah, me either. - I don't really like caffeine in the first place. - Yeah, we were planning to give all the big red to you, so I don't know, we're gonna do something. - You won't give it to me. - I'm not gonna fit this on the, uh, I don't know. - But we spent $200 on that big red. So we got this on with it. - Wait, just hear it. - Are you streaming tonight? - No, I wish, but honestly, if I were you, me personally, if there's a hole in the shelter somewhere, and that's where I would have brought it. - Hey, so, that's just who I am. - I'm not sure they'd accept it. - I'll be honest. - No, I'm taking this. (laughing) - Honestly, we took a picture of you saying it. I bet we could get that. We could just post it on Facebook market and someone's coming to get it. - Oh, for sure. - Oh, Facebook. - Facebook. - Facebook. - I want to post, I want to post, like my lunch box, like that I, on eBay and see how much it would go. - No, you have to do that. - Dude, it's gonna cook. - You ever shop on Facebook market? - Oh, always. - What'd you get on there? - What? - I bought some broken cars, fixed them up. - Actually. - By yourself? - Yeah. - Honestly, I do a lot of things to help me mentally 'cause I grew up mentally ill. So I've found ways that have helped me mentally like fixing up cars, going to the gym. - Not the doctor though. - No, not the doctor. - Oh, you're so inspirational. - It's honestly just like you just, as a content creator, you gotta have a different mentality than a lot of other people. - But you did that before consent, like the car stuff? - No. - Oh, that was after? - Yeah, so as soon as I started doing content, like 2020, 2021, I got so much hate to the point that I had to switch my whole entire mentality. But all of a sudden now, I switched again because it was, I guess, my mentality before it was not enough. You know? - Right. - So it was, I guess. - I don't know. - You're just trying to become him? - Yeah. - I don't even say I'm him. (laughing) - Everybody else does, they don't need to say it. - With that statement, do you think if or when you adopt your foster kids one day, why don't you foster, you can't have them on social media. But if you adopt kids one day, would you encourage them to do social media? - Honestly, what's your opinion on like family channel? - Like growing up in a family channel. - Honestly, I will always let them have a choice. It's not, to the point where like, you have to do it, you know what I mean? Like, but if it's something that my siblings, not my siblings, 'cause like, well my siblings do, like, you know, like a lot of them have a stuff coming up, you know what I mean? Like Harley has a lot of opportunities coming up, you know? - Aw, she's so little. - Exactly, she's seven years old with all these opportunities. - Yeah, but are there some of your siblings that don't really care for social media? - Yeah, but they take the family photos, you know? - Yeah. - They do all that, you know? - But if they said no, your parents would just be like okay. - Yeah, like they don't care. - Yeah. - Because it's like to the point of that, they're already on the internet either way. - Yeah. - It's like, they're known. So you don't have to like, for some to really do anything. Like before our content was literally just, what my mom did on a daily basis with the kids. So it's like, they're already on the internet. - So when you said you grew up like mentally ill, are you saying that was from social media or before? - No, so I was diagnosed with severe depression when I was little. And it kind of just really, I really saw it in high school, you know, and it's kind of when I started doing social media too. - So that's probably, but like when you start doing social media and then also everyone on social media is being mean to you, that cannot be good for you. - And it's like, honestly I don't care though. Like I had to change my mentality. - Yeah, like probably now. - But like at the time, it affected you? - Yeah, at the time it did. But it's like, I don't care, you know? That's the past and the past should never define who you are. - Yeah. - Quote of the day. - We've got like, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven, seven. - We already, he's like, let me type that down real quick. - He is diving it down. - Oh my gosh. - Yeah, so what do you feel like was the roughest part for you in that? - In what, like the. - Like do you feel like getting to high school and joining social media was made that better or worse? - It honestly made it worse, you know? Like 'cause you can have friends that are really not your friend. It was to the point where I've had, I've had a lot of those throughout my high school year and now, you know? So literally the beginning of this year, I cut off everyone. You know, I cut off all my friends. But I cut the ones that I actually grew up with. - Yeah. - You know, like physically lived next to. You know? But it's to the point that you can't trust them anymore. - Yeah. - And as a content creator, you can't trust no one. Because it's honestly, you either can get hurt. It's gonna hurt you more mentally. And it's just so much as like you never know if something's actually good. - Yeah, it's hard to build a genuine relationship when you're also. - So do you feel like being a content creator is harder than like. - A nine to five? - Yes. - Really? - For sure. - Really? - I would say yeah. - Emotionally speaking. - Yeah, emotionally, for sure. - I would say emotionally. - It can have some really good highs and some really low lows, for sure. So like, I see a lot of people with like the lows, you know? And they don't know what to do, you know? I've had people literally come to me because they were struggling. And they do content, you know what I mean? And they come to me and say they don't know what to do, you know? - Yeah, I'm sure. - What do you feel like the hardest part is? 'Cause I feel like when people think that right, they're like nine to five. It's such a mean. What do you feel like the biggest difference is there in that? - Honestly, like the biggest difference is. As you're doing a nine to five, you're not really like. Like yeah, you're talking to people, but you're not having that cyberbullying right in front of your eyes. 'Cause cyberbullying actually is the number one cause of. So it's like. With a lot of people doing content, there's been a lot. - Yeah, okay, so when you say that, you're just saying like emotionally speaking. - Yeah, so everything like emotionally sweet about like a lot of these content creators who are like do like gym TikToks, gym stuff like that. And I can say like it's hard, but. - Well I would say like content creators, they are the brand. - Yeah. - You're being judged, your physical person is being judged where someone who's at a nine to five, whether they're working at Taco Bell or the CEO of some company, their company is being judged. - Yeah, just not their face. - Yeah. But it's in yeah, I honestly feel like it is more challenging. - So overall, doing social media, you're glad you all have done it, or do you wish you never wanted to? - Honestly, I have those days that I wish I didn't, but I also have the days that I'm glad I did. - For sure. I also feel like social media, we were just talking about this recently, but like you feel the low points of social media, like way harder than you do, like the high point. Like when everything's good, you're like, oh great, everything's good. And then when something's bad, you're like, oh my gosh, this is really terrible. - Yeah, the piano for sure. - Yeah. - For sure. Yeah, you mentioned earlier, like you were like, oh, I've had to change my mindset like two times. It sounded like, if I'm correct, if I'm wrong, the other mindset was like, oh, I have to become something and you're chasing something that you weren't, or that you were trying to achieve. - Yeah, what are you saying? - That was unhealthy. - Oh, let's go. - That happens. - I don't know. - No, that happens. - That happens kind of. It's a little. - I mean, what does that popsicle stick thing thing right there? That's crazy. - That's a makeshift. - That's so funny. - That's so funny. - That's so funny. - Matt, did you do that? - Quality. - Anyways, yes. You know, what was the switch there? - Yes. - If you were down right now. - Okay. - You might have to repeat that question. - It was pretty much asking like, what was the switch? You said you switched it and switched again, like, you said a little bit about what the first time you switched your mindset. - Yeah. - You switched it from like, oh, I'm going to grind kind of, I'm going to become this person and you were chasing this. And then it sounded like that was unfulfilling and you changed it again. Is that correct? - Yeah, the only reason why I changed it is because I had a lot of things that happened to me mentally during the summer last year and it kind of changed me to the point where it comes back to me every single day. You know, people literally DM me saying, like, stuff about her and, like, I don't care really. But it's like-- - About your ex-girlfriend? - Yeah. - Like, I don't care. It's just, it's in the past. - First of all. - Why do we need to keep bringing it up? But till this day, she's still posted about me and I'm, it's so bad. - Oh, that's one bad thing, yeah, is if you have a social media, you have an ex and stuff. I feel like a lot of times they'll drag it on online. - No, definitely. She's gained 160,000 followers from me. So it's like-- - Yeah, a little red relates to that, too. (laughs) - Big time. - But it's, it's, like, I don't care. I'd want her. - Yeah, yeah, sure. - It's not in my business. - Yeah, and like, in a few years, like, it'll-- - But I feel like being, like, on social media with that, it does drag out a breakup way longer versus if you were not. - Because, like, if you guys weren't on social media, in reality, the only two people that are, like, seriously affected is going to be the two people in the relationship. - Yeah, and honestly, no one really cares. Like, if you were broke up with her and you were on social media, everyone would be like, "Yeah, exactly." - Yeah, yeah. - Like, no one cares if I was off on social media, you know what I mean? - But no, you kind of get that. But, like, you also know posting, like, as a content creator, like, you know, posting your relationship online, like, that's going to happen. Like, it's because people on the internet develop, like, pairs social relationships with you. And so it's like, when they, like, feel like they're attached to this relationship, or they know so much about you and whoever you're dating, and then you guys break up, they're like, "What the heck?" And they feel like they're involved in it when they're not. No, and it, honestly, like, to the point, like, I dated her for three and a half years. - Yay! - Oh my god! - That was a long-term relationship. - I didn't realize that. - So, way before, like, social media started popping for you? - Not before, not before, darkening doesn't, but, like, before. - No, yeah. So, like, everyone knew me from darkening doesn't. - Oh, yeah. - 'Cause, like, 'cause my account got banned. - Yeah. - So, like, it was to the point that, as it was three and a half years, and everyone's dragged right now. - Yeah. - I don't care. - Yeah, that's a long time. - I don't care. It's more money in my pockets. - Yeah. - So, how I go by, like, if you want to comment something, I don't care. - Yeah. - Yeah, it's easy to say that, but it's also, it's hard to live that out sometimes, too. - Yeah, but you also got to, my, I'm so positive as a person, and I used to be so negative towards myself. - So, is that part of the mindset? - Yeah. - What was the negative, negative is in, like, I'm not enough, or negative is in, like, I was listening to the hate. - Got you. - It was to the point that a lot of the things that happened to me during the summer kind of made me listen to those comments, you know, and to the point where I switched it, and you're not. - Yeah, yeah. - Yeah, yeah. - Well, you're kind of popping off now, so. - Not yet. - Not yet. - Oh, yeah. - So, he's coming with more of my improvement. - I can tell you right now. - I do have music coming. - Oh! - No way. - I knew it. - I knew it. - What? - I can tell you it's not rap. - Oh my god. - He's like, like, gospel, or what? - He's gonna, he's gonna pop out with some country music, or something. - I honestly can tell you it's not music, or rap. - Oh, right. I don't wanna be straight. - He's straight. - Why would you choose that out? - What? - But I can tell you it's not singing at all. - What? - Not rap, not singing. - DJ. - He's doing some poetry. - AI. - Wait, what? - Just saying not. - Wait, it's music, but it's not singing. - Is it, sounds coming out of your mouth. - No. - Oh, he's playing like a guitar or a piano, or something. - You're not gonna be the pianist. Do you play the piano? - No. - Wait, he's gonna, he's not gonna answer that. - Is it, do you play an instrument? - I'm not gonna answer you guys. I can't, I can't, I can't, I can't. - Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait wait. - The name of what? (laughing) Like my name, yeah, Alex. - Oh my gosh. - Oh my gosh. - That's crazy. - What? - Just don't even try to ask questions 'cause he's not gonna tell you. - Okay, I was just gonna say when you think people will know. - This summer? - Ooh. - Yeah. - Why don't you look at me like that? - But it is music. - I think she's just nervous around you. - Yes. - It is music. - I think I'll be nervous. - Oh my gosh. - I'm doing a big thing to my kick. I can tell you that. - Ooh. - I'll be streaming. - Is it a disc track? - No, I don't hate on people. - I thought you were gonna write a disc track. Harper doesn't even know. - How much time do we have left? (laughing) Wait, how much time do we have left? I have questions, but I don't want to waste our time if it's on past everybody else. - You're good. - Okay, were you adopted as an infant or how old were you? - I was adopted as at four years old. - Okay. - But I was at a foster house for three years. - Okay, and all your siblings, are they similar? - Yeah. Besides four of them, four of them are biological, but yeah. - Do, and this might be too personal, you can tell me to shut up at any point. But do all of them know their biological families or some of them do it in some of them don't? - Yes, and unfortunately mine was a closed adoption. - Okay. - Which means you cannot have any contact with them. And then, so, my, actually, my best friend's mom actually reached out to my bio mom and it was like, would you want to have contact with your son? And it was like, actually, she said, yeah, you know? 'Cause she didn't know that she signed the closed adoption. So it kinda like happened, and there's some, and there's laws in South Dakota, I think, that it has to be a closed adoption. - Yeah, okay. - Interesting. - Yeah, so. Would you say, I'm asking 'cause Mav and I eventually are going to adopt kids, would you say that your whole life or even like your siblings as they're growing up? Do you see in them that they would prefer, or you would have preferred, or would have been beneficial to have open contact with your biological parents? - For sure. Yeah. But it's really hard because I was coming in really mentally ill, you know what I mean? So if I talk to my mom, you know, I got mentally ill even more, you know? - I see, yeah. - And that's what you gotta realize too, is that a lot of that trauma too is gonna be there. If you adopt, but you gotta be able to talk to them, be able to like communicate that stuff, 'cause a lot of these kids are just gonna came into themselves, you know what I mean? And it's so hard with these days, 'cause they don't, they're not diagnosed, but a lot of them have, you know, depression to like-- - Some sort of a band of issues, yeah. - So it's really hard to like, I wouldn't say it's hard to adopt a child, but it's like to the point that like getting, I would say getting the kid right mentally physically, you know what I mean, that's gonna be-- - Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. - Like my brother, Jason, he's one of the twins. We were told that he got, that he was behind a fridge. - As a kid. - As a kid, you know, which I don't know why your fridge is open in the back. - Yeah, what? - And somehow has three, third degree burns all of his money. So it's like, you have kids that have that as trauma issues and abandonment issues and stuff like that. And like, it's so hard to figure that stuff out, because I kept my stuff, you know, personally to myself. And it makes it so much worse at the time, so. - But also kids just like don't know how to like express it. - Exactly. - If there's ever been like a healthy environment for them to do that. - You burn from a fridge? - Well, yeah, like, third degree burns because we. - Probably from the wiring. - He's saying he did that did happen or maybe they just told them that. - Right, right, right. - Is there anything that your parents did for y'all or is there anything that you would do for a future child that you have that you would say would be beneficial like counseling or something? - Yeah, so it's always up to the kid to me personally. - I like that. - But if they're willing to do counseling therapy, you know, then I would. But if not, I would always check up on them. - Yeah. - And not trying to force their feelings out, but like checking up on them and they-- - Let them know you're there to tell that, yeah. - Because as in having abandonment issues, you don't have that person. You didn't have that person. So it's really hard to like, and a lot of them will refuse that. You know, a lot of people will refuse having counseling stuff like that. - Why do you think that is? - I think it's because they're scared. And they don't want to say their feelings, you know? And as someone who went through that, I didn't want to say my feelings. I went to therapy. I didn't say my feelings. I just sat there colored and didn't do anything. - Are you waiting for the hour to pass? - You said what you needed to say or something. - Yeah. - And said the right answers. - Exactly. So it was like, but none of it like actually helped me, you know? - Yeah, if you're not gonna apply yourself and then you're gonna, yeah. - Yeah, you can go all through high school and not learn a thing. If you're not gonna apply yourself. - Exactly. - Yeah. - Well. That's false. - Oh. - Oh. - I can tell you this. Mentally, I was so mentally older in high school that I barely went to school. I still did my work, you know? But didn't show up the classes. - Yeah. - And I still graduated. - Catch you. - But it's like to the point that like attendance is a big thing too. - Yeah, yeah. - It's like, then I care. - Yeah, really? - Then I care. - I feel like sometimes with situations like that, that like the schools will find a way to help the student. So like, I'm sure that at least the attendance part, like they not make you go like do like, sometimes there's different plans. You can get on that that help. - They made me last year do 69 hours of seat time. - Oh! - I'm serious. - Yeah, seat time. - What? - Seat time. - I had so much missed attendance. - I had so much missed attendance because last year in October, I was filming a movie for Nickelodeon and I got, I was out of school and they like accommodated with me, but then I got back and I had 69 hours of seat time. And I did that every day after school until the end of school. - In Texas, you have to have a certain amount of hours. You were like technically in the classroom to go on to the next grade. So since she was going for a month, she traveled a lot for work and stuff. In order to hit that hour mark of like, oh, Harper's been in school for X amount of hours, she had to just go sit in the school for 69 hours to get to school. - It was so much. - I feel like, honestly, 'cause like where I grew up, being called out to go like travel and as work, 'cause that's what we did, they didn't care, you know? They really said like, - It was pretty relaxed about it. - Yeah, yeah, it's like. - Here that know they have plans, like they have like things they're called 504 plans and stuff where you can like turn in like, work late and stuff like that. - Which honestly, if you have a 504 plan, you're honestly not supposed to turn them in late. It honestly makes your 504 plan worse when you go into high school. - Really? I mean, go into college. So, and my dad's a special ed teacher. So it's like, I love that your dad's a teacher. That's awesome. - Yeah, so he actually taught me my fourth and fifth grade. - Wow, that's crazy. Wait, that's legal, where you're from? - Yeah. - Like homeschooling, right? - No. - He was in school. - He was in school, but his parent was the parent. - Yeah, I've had that. - Wait, wait, so are, do you guys all go to public school? - Yeah. - Damn. - Yeah. - We all go to public school, 'cause. - Yeah, this is why not? - This is why not. - And there's learning how it is. - It's important. - Yeah, homeschooling not many kids would be a challenge. - But it's also like, when you're a home, when you're getting homeschooled, you don't have those friendships that you make in school. - Yeah. - Like, you have your neighbor. - Yeah. - Right. - Right, what else are you supposed to do? But like, honestly, I feel like high school's a big step to going into college, honestly. - Yeah, if you're wanting to go into college, you need to apply yourself in high school and like, try. - Yeah. - I still graduated with a 3.8. - He's like, I'm sorry, I just threw a bowl. - Did you go, are you going to college? - I was going to college, I mean, you're going to. - I'm going to college. - A lot of 'em. - Two colleges. - Yeah. - But I just never really thought it was for me. - Yeah, yeah. - I was like that. - Yeah. - All right, Big Ride. We love having you on. Is there anything you want to say to the people? - Go ahead, plug yourself. - Plug myself. - You already know who I am. - Hey, everybody already know who I am. - Go ahead. - I was like, I mean, if they listen to an hour and a half of this and they don't know who he is, I mean, go ahead. - But yeah, is there anything you want to say, plug yourself, is you know, announce, I think it is. Announce your new band or whatever it is, you know. - Your band? - Yeah, it's called socks. - Yeah, he's talking about your music. - That looks big red dot-coms. - Hey. - No, I was talking about your music. - Oh, what, what music? - Mm. - Yeah. - He's so strong. - You got us. - All right, well thank you for coming up. - Yes, thank you. - But thank you. - Yeah, we'll see you guys later. - Please go play ball. - All right. but you don't got to be embarrassed, I'm working. - Okay.
