You did that people like maybe laugh and then they do it two times and then they'd be like You know Gerald we can't have you farting rip an ass in a meeting and be awkward and that's it But I don't I think you're forgetting that literally you guys kicked me out of the room multiple times But I'm not a part. I don't I don't really care if anyone farts to be honest. We kick you don't I really don't I don't care at all if people fart It just like it's really cool Mike. It just got a little smelly but midway through really okay You got to do something about yeah, so I I've been trying to bulk up so I've been drinking more protein and Oh, it's been going to war with my tummy man and so is just no one gonna mention my decorating all the hard work I put it really good right?

I'm just gonna apologize right now that we didn't say anything. Yeah, it does look really nice Thank you. Thank you really good and Yeah, this is our Christmas episode and guess what I also have to think Ryan for for planning it so that it actually comes out On the week of Christmas. Yeah, dude on the two days before everybody's on Christmas break Like when we did our Halloween, you know how we were like screw it. We'll put Halloween costumes on the day of Halloween when the podcast I came out two weeks later and I'm like, I don't who cares, but was that Ryan's dude? I think this it just worked out that way, my I think we filmed it on Halloween didn't we? No, I that yeah It wasn't blaming that on Ryan. No, this is coming out on Christmas because we just uh no Yeah, cuz I planned it So we're doing the Christmas special this week. These decorations. Oh, this this wasn't just my accident.

He came home and he didn't even he didn't even thank me Doesn't appear. Yeah, thank you Ryan and not only is it a Christmas special, but it's our 200th Podcast episode boys huge wow It's all odds on that what's the stat that you said in the beginning most podcasts don't make it 10 2% of podcasts make it past 10 episodes How about that we're at 200 that's insane 200 and I think we're up like 125 or more thousand subscribers this year So we've had a great year. Thank you guys really awesome to I mean like people are just there. I guess cat They're tuning in it's amazing. Yeah, they're coming back every single week. I saw pretty impressive because we talked about some dumb ass shit On this podcast shout out to the people that just keep tuning back and coming in to laugh. Yeah, I appreciate you guys Appreciate you guys. I saw I saw a small small handful of comments that you guys really dropped the ball not getting TP on for 199 I know I wanted it and we wanted it, you know, it's he's a popular guy, but Shout out to Travis Pastrana for our 199th episode last episode. It was in a nice house, and it was freaking hilarious He can't yeah, I didn't think that was gonna leak out there, but What I was hoping to keep that under wraps what leaked out of where? The wall like me doing whatever. Oh, what happened last podcast. Yeah, I wanted to follow up actually can I wasn't planning on hitting you with it right away But did you end up closing the deal? No, I said no Did you set up the TV is what he means? No, I've not set up the TV. I got I was planning on going there tonight Hey, she have no TV at the moment. It's just in a box, but yeah Yes, so she hasn't been able to watch TV in a couple weeks in that room. There's other TV. There's other TVs And is that why you wore your favorite overalls today Ken that had some nice contour to what's going on fitted? Oh, they're fitted is that why no, no, I just threw them on they knew we're gonna be running around outside while shit I was really hoping that you were gonna have some Details for us. I hope no details nothing's happened TV set up. Oh, yeah, I went But I guess we'll have to tune back in on on the next podcast and get caught up with Ken about how the TV set up goes I was telling Sydney the story and then We know how everyone was like, oh, I bet you're not even gonna set it up Ken Which if you don't have to hang it on the wall setting up a flat screen TV is like pretty easy legs on plug it in That's it. Maybe connected to Wi-Fi. Okay. Yeah, and that I would add that but then think signing into all your apps That might take a while to pay me all the streaming services and YouTube and I feel kind of bad because it's come over the holiday season now But I I recently have had to cut both my mom and my sister off of all the streaming platforms I pay for every streaming platform not because I'm trying to flex on you guys right now There's just a show on every freaking platform like that you just you need to have them all the way Look at it is like the luxury that you want is to like when you want to watch exactly like I want to buy it so that I can watch it I want Oreos with milk. Yes, and I don't care how fat they make me This sweatshirts tight. Okay, so you didn't know my size Yeah, Ryan you've definitely haven't been quite as humble ever since this whole quad thing. Yeah Old Ryan one is just flexed on all the viewers by saying that you pay for every streaming service But nobody watches more TV episodes than Ryan like this guy has watched every series imaginable Mm-hmm you can ask him any show and he just says yep watch it didn't like it or that one's pretty good But gets pretty born in the middle like you and a lot of your hair to the ground. Oh, yeah, dude with streaming entertainment They say TV isn't a bonding experience for a couple and they're probably right You know you probably should do something that like grow is you together and forces you to talk But like we we bond over TV and like the excitement like she just texted me our last text message I can't wait to watch our show tonight That's a last message and what is your current show? Oh, dude fallout is coming out. Oh wait when so good The first season of fall was really good I like it was the last week and it came out Wasn't it 12 to check that out dude. I think that you guys somehow have like a time machine for how much time You can spend watching TV when we live like the same lives like we have pretty much the same schedule And Greta and I will watch like one TV series like a quarter. What do you do between 9 and 11 p.m? Actually, it's extremely inconvenient to me and Greta's personal time together But I sauna every single night. He and that's like an hour or deal. Yeah, it's by the time I'm done with that There's an episode you can get it up You just put a TV right outside your sauna. You can get an episode in yeah, you can put a little chair next to it So she can sit and watch with you. Do you rip YouTube while you're in that sauna so you rip a son every day? Yeah, give her taking hour really says you watch YouTube at least yeah Okay, I do scroll whatever but something's going on with my Wi-Fi It's really been pissing me off where like if I have my phone at the bottom of my sauna It won't get service now. I don't know dude. I've actually been getting pretty pissed off Like I'll get in there finally get comfortable and then it'll start hitting the ring on me Yeah, and I'm like oh my gosh then I'm walking around my basement trying to get a signal for it to load and then as soon as it loads Then I'll like try and go back slowly go back over there. I know I got to get that I got to get that only sauna for 15 minutes But it takes me an hour to find the YouTube video How are we living in 20 25 almost 2026 and you don't have service everywhere you go in like five years Everyone's gonna just be on a Starlink plan like you're on Verizon plan right now I foresee Starlink just like taking that over and then Anywhere in the world there's gonna be a Starlink satellite over you and you're gonna have service be clutch in the mountains It is nice like going on trips. I'll get a little Starlink mini throw that in the sun And then you just get perfect life by the whole road trip. It is nice. Is that is that where the future's going because that makes the most sense But I think they'll just like either collab with Verizon or take over already have like if there's no cell service, you can send a text message over satellite. Right. And it's just they just got to improve that signal. Yeah. I think it'll be a collab. They'll still have 5G waves turning the frogs gay and stuff and then they'll have the satellites. I almost forgot about those frogs. Yeah. It makes a little bit more sense. Ev, didn't you just get a 5G cell tower put up by your house? No. And your backyard? I had a jail put up right next to my house. Really? Did you really? Yeah. How much was it? The jail? Yeah. You said I had a jail put up next to my house. I had a swing set put up next to my house. It was $12.99. Yeah. And what is it? It's the jail what you call your room when Nikki keeps you out. Yeah. It's a shed. Oh yeah. No, no, no, no gay frogs in my house. But the jail. So they put a jail up next to your house. So when you leave the casino, do you go there before you go home? No. I have to avoid it at all costs, but it is concerning when I'm sitting in my living room and you like swipe over on Snapchat, it'll like your location will be like, jail. Wow. Do you ever see like any runaways? Dude, no, it's actually, it's bad. Like when they get released, they just have to walk and then they just like wander in. Wait. Do you neighborhood? I don't think anything's bad happened, but they'll just be like wandering around waiting for someone to pick them up or whatever. It's literally just like they walk out the front door and they're just like, see ya. Yeah. So do you have a bus ticket or some way to get off the property? It's like when you respawn in GTA, you're just walking out of the hospital with what you came in with. They use you have a plastic bag and a bushel of paperwork. Damn. Imagine how crazy would be you get out of jail and you walk by a house and it's Evan in the front yard. Have you been to that? Yeah, his lamb was in the driveway. Have you been to that jail before? No. Non-voluntarily. The old one or the new one? No, the new one. Next to your house. No. Because I've been convenient. You go to jail and you can't let out? Are you calling someone to get a ride? No. No, I'm just walking home. You see like, obviously it's not a prison, so there's no yard or whatever, but you see the fellas out in the yard and you're mowing. Sup, Jay? Dude, I would hate to make him jealous. Yeah. Do you guys remember that thing in school you ever have it where like during homecoming you would get sent to the jail? You ever remember having that? Oh man, it was just my- Like, well I was so fucking scared of getting sent to the jail. What is that? It was like a thing. It was like a fundraiser like you nominated someone to go to jail. I don't even know how it works. No one ever picked me. What? But like, yeah, so then you would go to this jail and then you would have to like pick someone else to go to the jail cell and it was like set up in the hallway and homecoming or maybe like a common area. Respect to go. Yeah. Is it real jail? I mean. No. Like you get sent to real jail. No. No, no, silly. It's just metal bars. It's like a little cage. For some reason I thought that it was a fundraiser of like, like ship a bug in elementary school or off to jail. Yeah. If you donate $20, it buys your raffle ticket and on your raffle ticket, you can write somebody's name and then at the end of the, you know, homecoming week, there's 500 raffle tickets in here. It raised $10,000 for the school and one person jail gets selected to have to go and spend the night in jail. No, it was kind of like the thing, you know, we're where you could buy flowers for people at your school. Do you have that very homecoming? Candy game? Was that a candy game? Oh, yeah. We did flowers. Candy was way better. Right? Or as it was candy, candy on a thing. Oh, dude. Talk about how you could like let a chick know you send her a candy gram. Yeah. That's what I'm saying. This was like the reverse. Like, if you wanted to fuck with your buddy, you and your guys pulled together five bucks and sent your buddy to jail and then he had to like do something. You had to like high five. That makes sense. And since they were in school, they could just be like, yeah, that's what you have to do. Yeah. Sick. You got all a class. So did you ever send a candy gram? You went to high school with your now fiancee. Yeah, but they don't do candy grams like outside of elementary school. Oh, really? At least where I went school. Yeah. We might have had it through middle school, but elementary, probably maybe middle school. Oh, Mike. I don't know. I don't know. I don't think we had that at all. Holly had a bunch of weird shit going on. We had other weird stuff. You guys had a bunch of weird shit going on over there. I wish I could remember it. I guess right before I graduated, they hit me with the men in black like, oh, yeah, don't remember anything. I think that might have been the drugs you did right after high school, I think you men in black yourself. I don't remember any of that either. Like, you're just, I didn't fry my brain after high school, Ben, no, hit a deer kind of in the Corvette. Unfortunate. Welcome to the family, brother. Yeah. It was one of those where like you see it. And if I really locked him up, I don't think I would have been in a pickle at all. But I'm veering to the left and then the deer just swipes and smashes the mirror against the window. Not just in any car. You're a new vet. You're a new vet. In your vet. The second day I was driving it through congrats on the new whip, Mike. Thank you, bro. It's so awesome. I actually completely approve of this purchase. It's a very money-mike purchase, you know, it's a piece of shit, but it's an awesome whip when it does work. It's so awesome. And that has been most of the time, some of your ownership with it. I was very surprised when you said I hit a deer and the only thing that was broken was the mirror glass. That's all I hit the deer with was my mirror. Well, they guys are built in the homies tougher. And it was already that mirror was already broken, so I had to do that. But then I pulled up to the sea star the other day and I don't know what happened. Anti theft is freaking out. Wouldn't let me in the car. The doors wouldn't open. Ken may have smashed my window. Ken was run. If I wouldn't have smashed that window, you would have still been trying to like fiddle fuck with that thing. I don't know how I would have got it open, so yes, yes, I'm not going to say like you did me a favor. You can't you smash my window with the hammer. It's sitting outside with the window down right there. I did you a favor and I saved you two hours of fiddle fucking. Can I put a price on this, Mike? I knew you were going to say that. It was smart that it was the passenger window, so it's a little warmer when you're driving. But I have the other funny thing is I've been driving it with the broken window a little bit because I did eventually get it working and now it's not working again. Really? It actually worked. I drove it here. Have you seen it? No shit. I noticed it. It was on the charger. Yeah. So we got it working. Did some donuts today. I'm like chipper. I'm so stoked. Understandable. I drove it here. Go back to getting it and nothing works. Oh. I'll start nothing. Keep this in mind for the listener, Mike's Corvette, rear-wheel drive Corvette has winter tires on it. And like nobody drives Corvettes in the winter, Mike is, which is why I think it's so sick. It's just like he was driving in a full on snowstorm the other day. Like trucks were barely getting down the road and Mike's like bustin' through drifts in his Corvette. Like that's sick. And so that's why I'm extra proud of you. Are you getting looks around town? Oh yeah. Like are people stoked? So the most part, I mean, no one's mad, like people, like don't, they don't notice it that. It's not like it's a bright red or anything, it's black. But anyone else. It's not a red Corvette. Like I had two different instances where people in WRX's were like, "Let's go, it's race." Come on, bro, you got four-wheel drive. Yeah. It's such a WRX thing to do. Right. Those guys are always trying to race. But yeah, C6 on BlizzX could be the move. It's for sure the move. And so now I just got to get it working. Yeah, that would help. Well, also, only send me a DM if you know something, but I do need help on the C6 anti theft system because apparently it's a huge problem with the electronic. I think you just need a new key. Might have to do something with the salt and the water. No, I drove it for, no. It could. You know, most of us are never driven in the rain and you're driving in the snow. I think in the salt. That's your problem. In the salt. Yeah, it could be. It doesn't, it has the mild angle kit, so it doesn't have fender liners. So maybe. Even better. I don't know. I lost my shit when you use your, your wiper fluid and all of it just dumped out. Yeah, that was weird too. I was like, it's like what did you say when you were filling it? It's probably a giant crack in the tank. But why did it only come out if I turned it on, like added pressure than it all started squirting out? Because he just put water in it. It's gotta be the whole. It was cracked, I'm sure. Well, when your wiper's not expensive, I was going to say, no, I put the stuff in there. Well, you did, but the person before, like, why is it, why it wasn't taken? Cracked. Oh, I don't know. It's a salvage title car, so it's been crashed. It's got a title. That's a step up from the last one. It was. It was a huge step up. And I got the winter, or the license plate winter ride or winter ripper. They don't, they just make you write two down. You know, me had to get it customized, but be at normal plate. Yeah. Yeah, Mike, just in like two months, you went from not owning a Corvette to now owning more Corvettes than anyone else in the crew. Only owns one again. I only own one. Yeah, but you won't do. Oh, owned. Yeah. Is that true? I technically, I had the vet cart. Yeah. Yeah. It's a tie. It's a tie. Someone's got to break the tie and also you kind of get the win there because you currently own both of them. Hmm. True. Honestly, you know, half the reason that I own the Corvette right now is because of like, after I posted that, everyone's just like Gavin hitting it. It just really fired me up. Everyone's like, you need another Corvette and I listened. I could see myself in another life being a Corvette guy because you're a Viper guy. You're a Viper guy. You should get a, go get a cheap Viper and then rip that at 99, 99 Viper with a ton of miles on it. The one thing that makes the C6 drivable and the winter is that it has traction control. Yeah. Is this sketchy? Not really. If you're not here willing to only just be silent. - Yeah, when you almost ran into Ben's Lambo today. - That was pure ice, bro. - Yeah, Michael was a rear end in my Lambo. - Really? - In the parking lot. - I have it on video and it's so classic that you like look over at me and just like clutch down and the second you realize what's going on you're headed straight into the Lambo. - It was, yeah, it was scary. And like, I think we're all, we all know that it could happen at any moment. So if I was like about to hit, I don't know. Like the duly ranger or the company truck even. Like, it doesn't scare me that much. I'm not saying I'm driving around crazy. Like, I don't care if I hit anything. But when you're sliding towards the Lambo, it's a different feeling. - I don't know, dude. It's just been like so funny. Like it would have been so funny. Mike gets this Corvette. It breaks in the corner on store parking lot. We have to pull him back after Ken smashes the window. He gets it running again and then he drives it into the back of my Lambo. - That was the thought process. - It's crazy. It's just hilarious. Obviously I'm glad that it didn't happen. But I would have, I would have for sure gotten a good laugh out of it if it did. - And then you would have been pissed? - Yeah, I mean, it is what it is. Dude, I kind of want to get like a WX or something for the winter. - Really? - I don't know. Like, seeing Mike ripping around and-- - Remember when Ryan was like, I know we were on a different page. But when Ryan was like, what should I get for a winter beat? I'm like, dude, like a WX. Everyone looked at me like I was like-- - Was that on this podcast? - Yes. - Speaking of Golden Clip. - Speaking of your WX, what's the status of that thing? - Ah, it's getting worked on. (laughs) - When is that going to be done? - It's just like, they're doing so much. They're taking their time and then they're building one other car from the ground up. And I was like, I didn't know enough enough. - For you? - And I was like, oh damn. - And then there was a hiatus and then he told me that the guy that is getting this car built is sick. So they want to finish it. - Finish his. - I was like, much respect. And it's like an insane C3 Corvette literally from the ground up. - Sweet. - Crazy built motor. Oh, I don't know. Super is unhauled. We got all kinds of parts of fresh motor for it. Ready to go in. - Holy shit. - Oh, you're doing a fresh motor, yeah. - Is it a ripper? - I don't know. - I mean, you probably-- - I paid for a ripper motor? - Yeah. - Is it a ripper? - Yeah. - Oh yeah, is it fast? - It hasn't even been in a car. - Oh. - Mike, I think-- - He's asking a unique horsepower-- - Did you build the motor, Mike? Here's the stock motor? - No, built the motor, but we don't know what it's gonna be at for horsepower until-- - Really, not at all. - I mean, we have a ballpark, no, nothing. - I figured you might-- - Okay, that is. - 500, that's pretty good. - Yeah. - It's a good ripper. - No, you should get something cooler than one of those. Those are cool cars, but you should get something-- - Hang in there. - No, you should get it down your ass. - A sci-on T.C. or what are we doing? - What about it? - 90s Mazda Miata. - Mm-hmm. - Yeah, I'm not stuck on that. - Like, you know what the-- - It's like this in the C6 round. - Ooh, Hellcat. - Hellcat could work. Hellcat could work. - Boat. - And it would be a big boat. - You could get the charger version, which would be our wheel drive? - It would put all wheel drive in. - Hellcat's are always wheel drive. - And you could get a track cock. - That's a Hellcat motor. - Have you-- - That is the exact same car I am right now, anyone. Thank you, I owned an SRT once. That was a great car. - It was, but yeah, that wouldn't really make sense either. So what other-- - I don't know, something that's a manual. - Yeah. - Something that is inexpensive. - A super. - Which is relative. I mean, obviously by an expensive WRX, but like manual, ideally four wheel drive. - Name. - If they-- - I was thinking about a Focus RS, sorry Mike. - That'd be cool, but no, yeah. - I wish I never would have sold mine. - Why? Because it's worth more money than when you sold it. - I wouldn't have lost money on it. Like it's worth about what I sold it for, what was that probably six years ago now? Saying that was same as my SRT dude. Those things just-- - Yeah, they did. - Level. - Like I took that initial hit on the depreciation, and now it's just at that level. - If they make that new hatchback STI that they, which is similar to the blue hatchback, I will buy one. - I think that was a concept. - I know, but that's why I said if they make it. (laughing) - And that concept-- - Another concept is Mike got more than when we call him up or get an R-C-D or AI. - Bro, that's not even the same thing. I did the research on it. You just-- - It's like the picture I showed you. - They literally took a Subaru cross-track, put a body kit on it and said, "Look at our new car." It's all they did. - Okay, but there's so many varying levels of concept. - Do you think you could buy the concept itself? - Yeah, I don't think I'd want it to. - Why don't you build it? - You can't, like if you built a Ford Raptor, it's not a Ford Raptor. - What is it then? - It's whatever you name it. Like Ford makes Ford Raptors. You don't make Ford Raptors. - Hey, you don't tell him what he does and doesn't do, all right? - Why not? (laughing) - So anyway, if they make it, I will buy it. (laughing) - Somewhere in a boardroom, that clip just played. - Yeah. - And all the businessmen look at each other and go, "One guy said he would." (laughing) - They're like a dude wipe company. - Yeah. - And they're like, "No, he said that about like a car, I think." Yeah, but we're gonna use that. - Oh, you lost me a little bit there, but. (laughing) - I don't know. - I don't know. - I don't know. It's like they're using it at a board meeting and it's if they make it, I will buy it. They're like, "See? This is perfect." Like this is the type of guy we need. And but like, I'm talking about like-- - We need more of him. - Yeah. - I see what you're saying. - Is that a perfect segue and do a dude wipe test? - We don't actually, we aren't sponsored by dude wipes. - And you can't just, does your life just revolve around for almost a year? - Well, it's Ryan's life does and now it's, it's just slowly trickling in to everyone else's. It doesn't quite revolve around it, but I do, you know, last year I surprised everybody with gifts, but with tariffs. (laughing) - Fucking tariffs is the reason. - Fucking tariffs. - And, you cheap bastard. - Credit card fees. We have foregone the Christmas special gifts this year. - Oh, I thought you were gonna say but, I did get like the whole group one little thing. - No, I actually, I was talking to GLD about getting us custom life-wide open chains, but they said they couldn't do it in six days notice. So, well, maybe next year you have something to look forward to. - Okay. - And your butt is coming. - Nope. - And what part of the sentence? - Let's just straight up, no gifts. - Yes! - It's can't come. (laughing) - There it is. (laughing) - No, there's no butt in this sentence. There is no gifts this year. - So, what do you guys got going on over Christmas? - Ken? - Ken, why don't you start. - Why don't you start? How is it living with your familia? - It's great. I can't wait to go. I'm going to Florida after Christmas, so. - Well, what about four Christmas? - Well, we're just going to the, sticking with the parents house. - I think all of us around here have very, like Midwestern Caucasian family Christmases. Like, we don't do anything special. - We just do white Christmases. - Yeah, we don't do anything. - Did you need to throw that part in the race? You got to pull the race card on Christmas. - No, no! - I'm having white Christmases. - I feel like a lot of other races celebrate Christmas better than we do. - What does race have to do anything with Christmas? - I'm sorry for calling white people Christmases bland. I'm sorry. - Explain to me a more spicy Christmas. - Let's say, like, I'm Mexican for sure. You're gonna be more spicy. - Yeah, it's gonna have more spicy. - Yeah, and they're probably like singing songs and. - We have Christmas carols. It's coming from the guy that hates Christmas music. - Oh, so you're saying there's our better? - They do have Feliz Navidad. - Yeah, it's a banger. - It's a banger. - Yeah, I don't know where I was going. I just think whenever you ask any of us, what we're doing for Christmas, we always say, go into the families, and that's like it. Could you elaborate on that? Yeah, we've got a tree, gifts, food, hang out with my family. - So you're saying other races celebrate Christmas in a more extreme way? - That's not where I was going with it, but potentially. - I've been thinking about this, and I do think that Christmas has lost its sparkle. Like in the 90s, early 2000s. Look at the Christmas movies. - I wasn't alive. - I know, but that's exactly. They were so. - No, they were just great. - Dude, they were, it was, Christmas was such a special. - Walmart pumped out so many of the same movies, just with different actors. - They ruined Christmas. - And now it's just A.I. Slop is doing the exact same. - No, Christmas movies now are not. - I mean, they would like A.I. Slop. - Nearly. - Oh my gosh, it's a zipper right here. - Do you guys watch Christmas movies? - The classics. - Absolutely not. - Does Home Alone count? 'Cause in my book it does. - Yeah, yeah. - Home Alone's great. - National Lampoons, Christmas. - Amazing. - Elf. - Nah. - Well, besides what happened, we just said about this. - Elf. - And why don't you like Elf? - No, it's fine, it's fine. - It's fine. - What, do you feel like it's a derogatory term? (laughing) - Oh no. - He just thinks it's fucked up that he left all the other elves. - Yeah, do you think that's messed up? - No, no, buddy's good. - Yeah. - Is that his name, buddy? - Buddy. - Yes, buddy. - No, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine. - I just think it's Rocky, man. - Dude, buddy, Rocky, man, what a legend. - I bet they have a legend. - What a legend. - Crazy Christmas, man. - I bet they do, I bet they have rockets. Like a rocket propelled Christmas tree that shoots up into the air. - Oh, Ken, chill. (laughing) - Ken, what are you doing, Ken? - Oh, he's just trying to spread Christmas cheer. - Well, it's not a Tuesday. - I'm not the Grinch over here. I'm trying to keep people happy. - You might as well give me one while you're handing them bullets out. - So, last weekend, I went to Vegas, which I feel like is a reoccurring subject. - Dude, I've heard that so many times this year. - I know. - This is insane. - I know, exactly. - I feel like a listener at this point. - You guys get home and I'm like, "Tell me about your friends trip." - How are the doors? I just want to get to them all right after the trip. - Doors were standard. Standard doors, this trip. Nothing too crazy other than the rodeo. - Bro, the rodeo was the whole kid. - Get in and put his beard out for this one. - I told you guys, rodeo is pretty lit. You guys all laughed at me. Everyone else came with that fun. - Damn, I am. - I believe it. - I believe it. - I've been doing a couple of rodeos. They are lit. - The rodeo was sick. - First of all, like, I don't understand the rodeo. I get, you know, horse bowl. - She just stay on as long as he can. - Yeah, but only ride bowls for fucking eight seconds. - It's kind of hard. - But, no, like, the bowl riding segment, maybe it had to do with the beverages I was drinking, but felt like it was maybe 15 minutes long. Like, there's probably, what, 10 riders? Eight seconds a ride. They probably do it every minute. - There's more than that. - No, it was very short. There's barrel racing and there's double roping and roping and all the different things. - It's insane 'cause these guys are doing it for, like, 10 days straight down there. - They are, they're running. - Like, it's a 10-day show and they just go night after night. - Wait, is this show? - Yeah, it's a show. - It's in a performative. - Is it in a competition? - Yeah, it's a competition. - Was it PBR? - No, it's like, it's NFR. - The finals. - The one thing they have right, which is cool, is they don't say, like, there's no point system or anything like that. It's money. So they'll be like, she's earned $185,000 this year. Like, when they bring them out, and you're just like, yeah, $1,000 bull rider. - Exactly, makes sense. - So, like, you could go out there with some arbitrary bullshit point system, but they're just like, nah. Here's the guy who's made $700,000 riding bulls this year. - That's awesome. - Fuck yeah, that's lit. - So that was all the way to earn a living. - For sure. - I think the ones they're doing well? - The rodeo clowns or savages. - rodeo clowns. - I think it's one time. - Yeah, I hope, but I could see a whole documentary about it being like, rodeo clowns is just, wow, he's getting shit on man. - I could see him like, getting pre-gaming to go out there, psyching themselves up. - You'll definitely be a rodeo clown. - I think I would rather step into the rodeo ring as a clown than a bull rider. - You're ought to get the fuck off. - Don't make regret saying that, but. - I see the way I see the whole twinkle in Benzai right there. - I don't know why, but for some reason, I think I have, I set like 1% more odds for my terms, maybe not in my favor, but. - I agree, I think, I mean, if you're riding the bull, 100%, you are gonna get touched by the bull. But if you're the clown, like, there's really one on every couple of runs. - You're in the frickin' barrel getting hit. That's true that you can stand in a barrel. - You're not in my own barrel. - Fuck it. - But the rodeo's got it figured out, dude. Like, there's the audience and the crowd. In every cutaway, they just find three hot chicks and just put 'em on the jumbo tron. - You guys are so gross. - They did cut back through the same three chicks. - Did they multiple times? - Yeah, I don't remember, but I'm just saying, they know how to make it as spectacle. You go to a frickin' - You are just a pig. (laughing) - I'm on the defend Ryan a couple of, I don't think he said it like he was excited. - Yeah, I wasn't like, oh my God, the chicks, but it was just a better event. It was just a better event. - Sad. - What are they gonna do with a fucking demo derby or something? They cut away the Bruce, like find the hot chicks, cut away the camera to him. - I know, I'm just kidding. - Makes sense. - You know, like you go to an NBA game, who do they show in the crowd? Celebrities and hot chicks. They've got the formula down. And so then you go to the rodeo, they follow that. And it makes people wanna show up. It feels cool to be at the rodeo. - So what else did you guys do in Vegas? - Yeah, it was the rodeo more fun. - Yeah, so-- - So the Gavin Adcock concert were fun. - Lot, bro, we hosted a straight up meetup at the Gavin Adcock concert. It was lit. We walked out in one person stopped us for a picture as it was like a hallway. It got chaotic. It was awesome. It was so sweet though. Everybody was hammered and had fun. - That's cool. I saw a couple videos of Ken. Now you're just like big doggin' on the table's Ken, gambling like $3,500 a hand. - Okay, so I got influenced into gambling basically every dollar I had on me. - Yeah, 'cause all of that-- - Didn't you tell-- You told me that you were goin' with like three grand. - Except I forgot to go to the bank and I came there with like $300 and then I did like take out $1,000 at a time per day. - So every time I'm playing with you though, you're playing like $25 a hand. - Yeah, no. - It's not from $25 to a $3,500 blackjack game. - That's a pit bike, right? - I think CJ or Gavin or somebody told me, oh you should just gamble everything. - You don't always listen to other people though. - And I had-- - That's what I'm tryin' to figure out. - I had a lot of beverages at that point of the night and just put everything down on one hand to blackjack. One, you know, of course we're celebrating and then Colorado Gavin spills his drink all over the table. - Made in classic. - That's the action. - I was reviewing the footage and it was just unfortunate. He put his drink in the air and it looked like you tried - I five his drink hand. - I did hit it and then-- - So you hit it, you spilled it. - But I mean, probably shouldn't have been-- - Yeah, probably shouldn't have been 50-50. - Dealer had to shut the table down like they had to change out all the cards. - Did they pay you before they, all this bullshit? - They did. - Oh, that would have siphoned, they would have iced you. - They paid me and then we go to another table and a different pit and that Dealer got rotated into that pit. - Did somebody save the video because it is pretty comical and CJ's just zooms in on his face, right? Is it happens? The guy's looking at you guys like, what the fuck? - And here's what, like I don't understand, is dude, people spill on those tables 25 times a day. - Problem is we spilled on the cards as well. - They could've been marked. - And then they have to swap all the cards out. - God, okay, that makes sense. But I was like, dude, relax. This guy just won $3,500 hand. Hey, his boys are celebrating. They spill a little drink on the table. The pit boss just comes by and they just wipe the table up. Like people spill on those tables all the time. That just happens, right? But this guy was just sitting there just like, couldn't believe what just happened, the Dealer. I was like, bro, what the fuck is that guy's deal? - I think it's like kind of a thing 'cause they have to like change all the cards out of the, you know, the shuffler and all that kind of stuff. - Yeah, and that makes sense. - So it's like when it's out of like their normal rotation of replacing cards. - Then they can't, then they can't-- - It's a pain in the ass. - Well, they can't have the cards in their favor. - It's also like 10 o'clock on a Friday, Saturday night. It was busy. - What did you do directly after? - Went and gambled on a different table. - Did you win? - Well, actually, I tried to wait in line to cash my chips out and then line was too long. So I didn't play a buck that-- - Classic. - The story is awesome. - I did go up a couple hundred bucks, so. - Oh, even better. - So you were sitting on seven grand after that blackjack in. - Yep, then gambled a little more and then came home with three. - Oh, there's $4,000 in this crepancy there. - Oh, I also, I did a $5,000 hand. I borrowed $5,000 from Dave. - Jesus. - Did it on a hand and lost it. - Oh! - So I had to pay Dave back. - Can. - Can. - Also just slides that one in there at the end. - Give me the card. Give me real quick, real quick. When did you get that? What was the deal that was showing? - I don't remember. It was-- - You do remember in this shirt. - This one was late. - You actually don't remember? - I don't remember. - Yeah, of course he doesn't remember. It didn't work out in his favor now. It's like him kicking the TV. - I don't remember. - Can you remember the one you won? - I don't remember what the cards I got on that one either. - Dude, this guy. You were like my post-school. - You got a 17 and then they busted. - Oh, perfect. I don't remember what the video said, so. - Well, okay. - One other thing, we were gambling to Arya and Gavin turns me, he's like, "I'm pretty sure that's Zach top next to us. "I'm the table next door to us." And I'm like, looking through his Instagram, I was like, "I can't tell if I'm wrong." - I never fucking heard of Zach top in my life. - I was like, I was like-- - And he wasn't saying, "I sleep like a baby." - Well, so I'm looking at him. I was like, I'm looking through his Instagram. I was like, "I can't tell if that's him or not. "I eventually get up, go to a different table." And then Gavin goes over and talks to him and it was Zach top, just gambling at a, gambling at Arya. - Especially the first thing you asked him, "Do you like three reals?" - Yeah, Gavin went into one open table. - Then the entourage of his crew was crazy. You just had a big crew. And then we had our 15 people. And Gavin just slips in there, hops on the table, plays with them, became boys with all of his boys. - I didn't know if he got to be friends with Zach or Mr. Topp, but he was pretty good friends with the rest of the crew. - Yeah, I heard that Gav hit it off with the bass player, it was like a big fan. - Really, that's cool, I hadn't. - And Gav somehow got invited on like their party bus. That was, I don't know where they were doing or where they were going. - Well, I do, but I'm not gonna say. And then there are some videos, yeah. But me and Mike weren't there, but I texted in the group chat late at night and I said, "Yo, for this video bit, put a thousand bucks on a roulette hand." And I was like, or $5,000 on a roulette hand. Everyone, each one of us puts in a thousand bucks. And then it'll like fit in there. in a shop for this video bit. Well, I know that we won, but I haven't seen the money of our winnings. So I don't know how it went. Can somebody please tell me? - We did win. Your cousin took the money. - Okay. - I don't know what he did with the money after that. - My cousin is CJ. - Ryan and I got paid out. I don't know where your money's at. - I demanded it on the spot. - Yeah, 'cause that's the thing with this guy, is you know that money's already gotten allocated towards other bets. So that's when I'm just wondering how long until I get paid out on this deal. - I did see him wandering around the sports book before we left. So I don't know where that's at, but-- - It could be problematic. - Yeah, I love it. - It's gone. - When he's updating everyone on Snapchat, he's like, you know, I'm 10 bucks up. So a lot of work, not much to show for it. And he goes, I think I'm just gonna go back to sports betting. (laughing) Which he is bad at, but he's not as bad as sports betting. Like he still lose money on that, but he loses more money elsewhere. - The burn rate of sports betting is a lot slower. - Lots of burn rate of slot machines or table games. - Mike, we came out pretty good. - We came out great and I was, you saw, I said, yep, I'll throw a thousand bucks in. And then I was like over thinking about it. I'm like, man, I hope they win. I hope they win. And I'm like, gosh, it's like if we lose, they're definitely gonna ask for the money. But if we win, I didn't pay anyone yet. So like they could just take that money and be like, ah, like, you never sent me any money, man. We did the bet, but. - Classic. - Yeah, so I was thinking a lot about it. And then you guys sent the video, Ryan, great job filming. - Bro, do they do not like you filming at that? - No, they don't. They were like covering him up. - Yeah. - The lady kinda like body checked me. - You need a cramp or something. - I was like calling it a buffer. - I was like calling it in favors. We were asking people left and right, like, hey, can we film, can we film? - Where are you calling for favors? I was calling a couple of Casino hosts. So we were talking to pit bosses. And everyone was basically saying, no, you're gonna talk to this person. - When he walked in the high limiter room, it's fucking super quiet up there. Like it's, people are there to work, dude. It's quiet and there's little rooms. Like every table has its own room. We've never been up there. We all stroll in, post rodeo, fucking bon, right. Where's the roulette table? And the guy comes over and a big student goes, there's no roulette in here. And we go, okay, turn around and stumble out. Well, it's pretty funny. - Yeah, so I gotta track that guy down. - You're cousin? Yeah, he's not even, he's not even here today. - He's been awfully quiet ever since he got back and he owes me my money. He's been awfully quiet. - Yeah, no, CJ texted us this morning and he said that he was down with the sickness. - More sick today than he was when he had COVID. And the boys were down when we were sick. He sent us his little, his little whoops score, 1% recovery. - Yeah, that was interesting to me. It was basically showing him that he was at like 1% of what he could be. And I don't know how it reads that. But it was like, fine comfort in, there's 0.5% of people on the app are also at 1%. So you're not alone. - I do, I do see that he. - Fuck did that need to be said for? - He slept from 4.43 a.m. to 10.18 a.m. - I was like a normal Zorba's night for 10 sleep. - I don't know if he was the problem with that. - Some guys just aren't built like you was. - I also didn't either, that's like, I looked at it. I remember-- - One time Justin was like, I was working on some of the stuff for the merch shop and he's like, did you sleep last night? Like you look super tired. And I'm like, no, like I went to bed super late and then I'm like, but you know, I still slept till like 9.30, so I got five hours. And he's like, oh, you got more than me. Justin has a son that keeps him up at night. So, I'm like, yeah. - I didn't know babies didn't sleep that much. - Some sleep for like seven, eight hours, right? - I don't think they're often up a long time in the middle of the night. They just need a snack and go back to bed, yeah. - He'll say like, oh, he-- - He can't argue with that. - He's woke him up, needed to do something and then Justin's up for the night. - What do you need to do for the night? - He should just sleep. - Probably as a diaper full of shit. We're in about his taxes. Make sure that they're getting filed. - Yeah, he's thinking, hmm, how can I further the corporate greed of my company? - You know, he's like, oh, I'm a baby, but I know that when I'm 18 years old, I'll look back at today and be like, damn it, I should've bought a house. (laughing) - Yeah. - You know, that keeps a lot of babies up at night. - If only I would've bought Bitcoin when I was three days old. - Who was the dunce that put the sticker on my door handle the day at the farm? - It's made a mess, not for residue. And then I put Gooby-Gone on there, and I was using the torch and it's like such a mess now. I'm not happy about it, but-- - What did the stickers say? - Whatever brand those wheels are. I'm starting to think that it was either Ben or Dalton. - Could also be Micah, but-- - No, it wasn't me. - Dalton? - And Zignorangus. - I think it was him. - I think it was Ben just based on the fact that-- - Did you put a sticker on Evan's door handle today? - I was walking with him when he noticed it. - Well, that's unfortunate. I've got residue on his handle from a sticker. - Ben, you never said no. - Straight up, wasn't me. - Okay. - If it's a big of a deal, just get up on the security cam. - Oh, sure, true. - I'm not one time that CJ put a sticker on Ken's Tesla. - He punched him in the face. - I was thinking while I'm like running Gooby-Gone down my door and making a mess, I'm like, now I see my camera's so pissed. I'm not actually pissed. I was just curious to see it. It was bright. - Well, that's for sure, Brian. - Look at him, looking around, looking for the-- - For no reason, he went all the way over there. - Malicious intent. - He did. - That is hilarious. - It's cool though that he picked you, you know? - And it's cool to see him out there doing stuff like that. - I beat up my tire first. - Oh no, maybe he's not, I'm sorry. - Yeah, what's he do? Why is he hiding behind my truck? What is he doing? - Maybe there's a sticker you haven't even noticed yet. - Like, he's like, what is he doing? - No, no, he's just-- - He's gone, he's gone. - I knew the sticker for a three pack, and I found two. - Oh my gosh. - Oh my gosh, you know what makes it better? When I walked into the shop, whenever everyone was gone, there's one person in the shop, big ranch. There you go, some asshole. - Yep, there he opens the door. - My truck, you know, there's a resident here where he goes, "Oh, here's some gooby-gun right here." - Yeah, that's where this stuff comes from, you know? - Bro, that's also what was funny. Like, you were asking everybody, who put these stickers on my truck? Who put the, and you're like, "Oh, you got your rags "and your gooby gun, I guess you call it?" And you went out there, and then you pulled up to the shop before the podcast, and you still had one on there, and I was like, "Damn, I guess." - On the rear passenger? - Yeah, yeah, you still had it on there, and I was like, "Dude, I'm happy for big ranch. "If this can give 'em a little chuckle." - All right, well let's not tell 'em, and let's see, here's this podcast, and I'm going to SecretVenge. - What do you think about doing? - I mean, I might just go with the classic lug nuts. - I like that one, as in removing them. - Yeah, or you could always maybe cut out his catalytic converters. - And sell them for profit? - Yeah, exactly, I could cash out, and then just blame it on someone else. - You could replace, you could like build pistons out of stickers for his car, and put those in. - You just put a piece of tape across the door when he walks in. (laughing) - We should get him, that'd be so funny, just a classic saran wrap across the doorway. - Oh, what the hell? - I'd rather saran wrap the toilet when he said it in the doorway. - Ooh, that would be bad. (laughing) - Can you imagine? - Oh! (laughing) - Oh! - Let's just mean on the cleaning. - What the heck? - Beaking, oh no, it would not be, Ken. - What you did. - No, it would not be. What you did was mean on the cleaning lady. - In my defense, I didn't notice it when I flush the toilet. - In my defense, that's what a toilet's for. - When I flushed it, I did not notice it looked like that when I came back. - When you caught hang time off the seat, you should've thought to look at what had just happened. - What call you a rocket man, buddy? - Bro, we gotta fucking give our cleaning lady, no, sorry, let me rephrase that. You need to give our cleaning lady a crispest present. - Okay, that bathroom has been way worse for her. - No, no, it is not, that was one of the least bad times. That was not that bad. - You're fucking delusional. - Wait, so I don't know if Ken still has seen it. I'm delusional. - What did it look like, 'cause what I saw on Monday when I came back, it was not. - What did it look like? - It looked like the fourth of July happened in the toilet. - There was a couple little brown specks when I saw it. - No. - Little. - No, it looked like you took a handful of mud and threw it at a wall. - It looked like that video and we took the one dirt bike out and everybody was covered in mud. That was the inside of the toilet bowl. - Dude, it was the most atrocious thing I've ever seen. And they adhered itself to the porcelain. No amount of flushes would knock it off. - No. - It was so bad. - Glad you think it's funny because it's not cool. - It wasn't that bad when I left it. Somebody else blew that thing out after that video. - Oh, really? - Yes. - Who here even has the technology to do that? - The capability. - It wasn't, okay. When I left on Tuesday, was that Monday or Tuesday did that? - It had a full week to end here. Before she had to go in there with a chisel and safety glasses. - I was gone for almost a full week until I came back and you were like, "Oh my God, that toilet got blown out." - It was blown out the whole time. I sent a snap in the group chat. - Somebody else saw the snap in the group chat. And I sent a snap of the toilet and I said, "In all caps, 10 fucking Matthews." - You assaulted this toilet. - I must have clicked. - All caps. - I must have clicked through that snap. - You watch any of our snaps? Some of them might click through. - How do you know? - Some of them might click through. - What's gonna get your attention enough to watch? - Well, when there's like a six frame video snap of somebody chatting, I'm like, I have to just click, click, click. - Oh, who does that? - And so when you see something - Oh, when it's your name. - Ryan, Ryan's showing his camo pants for some time. - One time, one time we've been over this. - Well, it's like 20 seconds. - Actually, he's not here, but I think judging by the comments, I think CJ lost in that. I had to delete some. There was one that said, the F word that's bad that you actually can't say. - The bundle of sticks one? - Yes, exactly. That one, but with a Y at the end, ass bitch wearing his car heart vest and his soft ass hands. No one would think this mother effort is in the trades at all. Maybe someone's bitch apprentice. It was something along those lines. It was so bad, I looked at it and went, this one maybe has to go. - I didn't think you look like a tradesman. I thought he looked like a granola earthy. - It's like the car heart work in progress. - So anyway, I saved it, I saved it. Are you ready? - We can't visually show for the sake of the people. - Oh God. (laughing) Oh, are you proud of yourself? - It looks like a crime scene. Look at how clean the water is. That shows how hard on there that stuff is. - Yes, my bad boys. - Hi Velocity. - We see why we had a problem with it now, Chris. - Yes, that's my bad. - Do you see why we think that you owe our cleaning lady Heather, a Christmas present? - Who is a saint? - Okay, what are your suggestions in? - Well, I don't know, maybe a Lamborghini. Or like a virtual reality headset. - Oh, what's? - Virtual reality headset. - So she can imagine she's somewhere else when she's cleaning up your next mask? - Or a Lambo, yeah. - Lambo seems a little steep out of the budget, I guess. - A 75 foot long cleaning pole. - So really, really, really high on cleaning utensils. - What about a gas mask, when she has to go into your office? Don't bring them in. - Did they have like a golden toilet? - Scrubber? - Golden wand? - I don't know. I mean, SpongeBob had a golden spatula. - Yeah, like a golden toilet scrubber. - That is pretty cool. - You have like a sheath of like cleaning supplies that are really high-end. - All just gold plated or soft solid gold. - Yeah, or solid gold would be heavy. - I think we're going with this. Maybe Johnny Dane could ice fun out. - Don't know who that is, but okay. - Yeah, give her a nice doubt. - Ice out, toilet cleaner. - Just the most expensive one possible. - Maybe honestly, this one's probably going to be really, really hard for you, but maybe just a thank you. - Texture, right now. - Texture. - No, but you have to be specific what you're thinking her for. - Honestly, don't. I'm sure she's forgotten about it. - No, oh, again. - It's going to be like flashbacks. - No, no, don't say thank you. Sam, sorry. - I wasn't going to say thank you. I was just going to say sorry for blowing out that toilet. - I'm sorry for this backle. - It seems like you're proud of it now. It seems like one of those, like I'm sorry. - Yeah, it seems like you're gaslighted. - Yeah, you're gaslighting it better. - Okay, fine, I won't send anything. If we're going to be, we're going to play this game. - I think you need to get your own impression. It means more when it's in person. - She actually, she quit. She said she's not coming back. - Well, that's because of the relationship. - She had a Monday. - I don't know. It can, I think you need to just take a little bit more accountability for your blowouts. Maybe occasionally, you could just take the edge off. You don't got to fine tune it. But maybe you go shoot. Maybe I'll just knock the edge off it. I mean, it's insane. It's like this is a criminal act. - I didn't even notice it. I flush that shit in water. - What is your toilet look like at home? Have you ever peered inside? - Well, it's clean. Evan, they had to move out of their home. They had to move out. Who is that bad? - It's insane. This is insane, Ken. I'm just glad that you're taking accountability for your actions. - If Heather is listening, Heather, I am sorry. - She's not. - Okay, never mind. - She's not. - But what would you say to her? What would Heather, I am sorry. I blew out that toilet and I did not clean it for you ahead of time right away when it was still fresh and would have been significantly easier to do. Sorry. - What are you? - Would you chat CBT run out, Ken? (laughing) - Cool. - And good. - And thank you for making our shop a lot better than. - What are you trying to. - I think that is, now I understand. - Thank you for helping keep our shop. - You won't do it again. - I'm not gonna say I won't do it again. - Just clean up after your mess. - But I won't clean up after my mess. - Okay. - All right, great, I think. - Wow. - That was great. - That was great. - It was all. - It's a great moment of growth. - I like it. - We found out who put adhesive stickers on Evan's door, we found out who blew it out the. - I can't believe he fucking did it. That's actually crazy. - That is completely out of left here. - He has a big project, he's working on it. (laughing) - He just, Evan, get the fuck to work. - Walks away from it to sticker up my fucking truck and then have the audacity to help me try to clean it up and not claim it. - And not claim it. - That's so good. - So it's pretty fucking hilarious. Ah, yep, it's funny. It's funny. - Good, thank you, guys. - You should call him right now and just say, "Hey, I'm just sitting here." Don't say you're on the podcast. Hey, I'm just sitting here and I'm trying to figure out who would have put that sticker on my truck. Do you know? 'Cause I'm just trying to figure it out and then just be like, it's all good if you don't know, just. - Do you know what kind of stickers those were that ended up on my truck? You gave me the gooby gun and the torch, but the gooby gun was flammable and now I'm melted by a door handle. So now, and it melted into the like, where the lock, I can't open my doors. - Can't open your doors because of what now? - This. This. - It's so dumb. It's so dumb. - Who could have done it? - The stickers. (laughing) - The damn wheel stickers that I don't know. I think it was Dalton or whoever, they put those stickers on my door handles and then I was trying to clean it off. You told me heat it up with the torch and try to scrape it or to put the gooby gun on it and then I put the gooby gun with the torch 'cause it's hot. - Well yeah, I didn't know gooby gun was flammable. It's oil. - Yeah, now my wrap is melted. My door handle doesn't work. - Oh, that's funny. Was it Dalton? - I have no idea. - 'Cause I'm gonna loosen his lug nuts up if it was him. (laughing) - Well, you should do that anyway. - Hi. - You came in and you got it off? - Uh, I got it off the one side and then I found out this son of a bitch put it on multiple doors so then I was, I just put a lot of gooby gun on there and I just hit it with the torch right away trying to speed things up. - It says flammable right on that bottle. - I was irritated and didn't have time to read. (laughing) But you didn't see who took those stickers. - I didn't see who took, who put them on your truck? - Well, I mean, yeah, I would love to know if you saw, who put them on my truck, but I'm saying where all the stickers were in the shop in the work base so I thought maybe you saw who stole the stickers. - No, I gave the one to Ben. (laughing) - You gave Ben, so it was Ben. I thought I would, I swore. - I gave him a bigger red one. I'm like, what do you want to do with this? And I was gonna stick it, I was pretending to stick it on the side by side. He grabbed it from me and threw it in garbage. - Okay, so I should look at Ben though. - I don't know. - Well, if you were a Ben, man, who do you think I should suspect? - Boy, I would hate to throw anybody on the bus, that would be. - All right, well, I'll get to the bottom of this. I just, I'd hate to be the guy that did it. - Boy, I wouldn't, I wouldn't want you mad at me. - Whoa, it would never be mad at you. I know you would never do that. I know you'd never cause me to burn half from a wrap off my truck, record door handle, right before Christmas. I have presents to buy in a family. - Yeah, that would stink. I would have read the label first. - So you're telling me it's not the sticker applicators fault? It's the Gooby-Gone guys fault? - Well, did you not look at the Gooby-Gone? Like the stuff is happening. - Well, I looked at it, it was running down my door. These things are oil-y, it's mess. - That's not good. - All right, well, we'll figure it out. All right, we'll talk to you later. - Yep, I'll let you know. - Whoa, whoa, what was that? - Easy. - Big wrench. Big wrench, can't take a kill to b-- (laughs) - Bro, I had like 30 seconds or I could not. - You lost it, you lost it, you lost it, you lost it. - Whoa, what was on it? It goes silent, we're all crying, laughing and he goes, you there? (laughs) - Well, you guys don't know about it. I thought it was pretty funny. I was having a hard time and then I look at Ben and he's laughing pretty hard and that's not easy to hold the laugh in when your buddy's laughing. Dude, that was funny, bro. Big wrench is taking that one to the crazy. I love that he goes Hello, he was so confused as to why you would call him. Oh Wow, that was good last prank in 2020. Yeah, that was really hilarious But man big wrench can keep a secret, huh? I guess so isn't cracking a pressure at all. Hey, and he's kind of What's the word I'm looking for is that gaslighting where he accused deputy of being my folks? Yes You just got gasoline manipulative Dude, I love that. Yeah, you're just like yeah, it's it's going bad. I'm jammed up burnt the door handle and he goes well That stuff's flammable Should have known it's actually not flammable because I did hit it with the torch after I put it on there It's just will be gone is not flammable. No, you know, it would make it work It's if it if it was a flat surface so the gooby-goon could sit on it, but because it's vertical it runs off So you just have to keep spraying it over and over and over Yeah, gooby-goon So you kept saying gooby-goon and then he started saying well, you should have read the label on the gooby-goon Yeah, so I'm probably going to loosen his leg Dude big wrench That guy's a steel trap that guy was not cracking under pressure I'm not letting that secret out all the pranks you're working on you'll be able to tell him Maybe I should drive to his house tonight and put one of those stickers on his door handle That'd be pretty funny after this after this I just there's one left There should be there's more in the trash three times four 12 each one had all four colors Holy there's a lot line is truck up. No, I can't because I know how bad it is to get up Yeah, just the like I feel bad if his door handles are paint match or so I don't know mine are just like the black just put on the window so you can like least like razor it off Well, that's what I was thankful he put one on the drivers Window right where I'd look, but he peeled the top off his thing for big right? He pushed it off and they go he peeled the top off the sticker So it was like just the protective over the logo, so it wasn't sticky If you're like me and basically live in active where you know the struggle The good stuff costs way too much That's why I'm obsessed with Fablates.

Thank you Northwest registered agent This was before Your time but as a prank one day when Ken was working his old appliance job We went to his parking lot where his car was parked in the employee parking Escort And we And we covered the entire thing in posted notes. Yeah, so we put colored posted notes all over the entire car Rough number top to bottom. I don't know Whole car the whole car top to bottom. Right. It was a pretty big expense at the time And then we sat there and waited for him to come out and get his reaction Like like you know shooting it like secretively from another car so he didn't know where they're so he comes out He sees it doesn't give any reaction and then We see him pull his phone out of his His pocket and he text us and goes you guys have 20 minutes to get this shit off my car otherwise Yo pay or something like that when he always gives his open-ended threats and then we sat there I think sat there for a while and pretty soon he started pulling them off And then we watched him pull all of them off and then he went to the car wash And then he texted us and saying that the Post-it notes left behind like a colored resident so it did leave behind some colored and and that he was going to like sue us for the damages I did not say that didn't say sue he said screw and then he was threatening us For the damages of the post-it notes and I think we just said go through the car watch again And then he did and then they went away, but how much was that? Palette of duct tape we got we did the duct tape tires a lot for grand That is a lot to get revenge on big wrench But man would be funny to wrap his truck up like a cocoon that would probably I think we got a deal on that we got it's only like now you do the first you know about it for me like you do the first layer backwards So the sticky never goes to it and then he'd come out and look at it and think it was the truck me the cocoon hilarious But the just that first layer of it you do it backwards. Yeah Well, then you could just like you'd cover it in a really big floor Christmas Yeah covered in the really thin painters drapery the thin plastic and then and then just make a giant ball out of it You could put a car cover over it. Yeah as long as you cover everything you never know But you could almost tape things in but that'd be so funny if you taped like his tools his whole fucking toolbox Go into a box so we can't just throw the tape Full stock it might be in there and then we tape and then we put duct tape over every square inch of a shop Gavin's in the background shaking his head because he has to use the same tools Well, not at our shop we go to his oh Oh, yeah, we go to his personal shop and we take his athlete snowman bill wrap that sucker up to Yeah, this is what happens big wrench when you put a sticker on it Yeah, 4,000 bucks. That's just No, that was enough you could cover a whole building with that much duct tape. Oh, I mean that those tires were like probably I mean she's thick. Yeah, when you're sick What if you like put something in between them? Like if you put a bunch like foam pieces and stuff you could make a giant giant ball out of his truck I think it would be perfect if it looked just like a truck But fully. Oh, okay. Yeah, well don't give away all your secrets now. We have to act fast on this Yeah, we have told uh, we got four days Christmas day even if he knows about the idea It's still gonna be incredibly inconvenient No, like it doesn't matter if it's a surprise or not. It's one of those ideas where it's like either way I think maybe to make it even better we give him a really dumb task to do extremely early in the morning Just to like get out get his truck there make it even more, you know So he's a little like on edge inconvenience And then he finds out his truck is duct taped like come pick up the sprinter van at 3 30 a.m. And drive the Minneapolis airport Like that's what I'm saying. Let's wreck his day Dude this guy is pissed off right now Which one's the least little sticker on his door Talk about three stickers No, and for the record I'm not been mad this entire time I just assumed it was someone that was sitting on this podcast, which is why I brought it up It'll be funny a little more of a reputation, you know Yeah, but I'm stoked. It was big wrench. Like if it was if it was Gavin wrench, I'd be pissed Yeah, cuz you'd have to box him That's what about you and don't need getting in a boxing match Uh, I don't want to hurt the little fella I do think so. I don't know. You got to reach on you know, but you definitely got like the Paul But when he gets caught with a compact uppercut to the chin that might change his life He's definitely like a lot he's very quick too on his feet Plus I don't know he's kind of gangly I could tip him over. Yeah, once we're in here with a compact What depends are we box? Yeah, I guess we're boxing can't go to the ground But yeah scrappy little basket. Yeah, that's what you are Evan as much as it ought to be Yeah, maybe I'll love to see that I hope you guys don't box each other, but I do I would love to see whether even you know If it's not on camera, but if I'm out there on the track, and I got a stopwatch on my phone I love for you to run a race. Well, yeah, that's yeah, yeah, I would love to see you - I just don't want them to hurt himself I would love to see you to run a lapper on the track you guys been talking big on feet. No, just on bikes I swear you know Zoned out for a second 2026 is the year of the TV was a little distracting for me Oh my gosh, you got to draw the line line in the sand somewhere and I don't think that I am going to let two of my friends Box again no one got hurt, but it's just like that's kind of what I was getting at like I'm no pacifist But I don't really like seeing my friends box. I really like boxing my friends. Yeah, I can't just said he doesn't really like boxing his friends But boy is it entertaining it was entertaining. It was probably it was like looking back at the year It was problem five top five in it. I think quad bit was top five really you think you're putting me top five Absolutely. I don't I just thought it was hilarious. Okay. I like that a lot of people hated it a lot It was like she actually genuinely asked me like are you doing like okay after this like there's a lot of hate comments dude I was like is there a lot of hate comments? I thought people thought I was sick dude There are so many people that said this was the worst bit you've ever filmed and so many people that said this was the greatest But you've ever filmed which is great because a god in a motion out of everyone The thing about the boxing bit is everything happened so fast in that it was like it was like 36 hours And we know Ken has our time paying attention. It was like 36 hours from idea to them in a ring Maybe that's what it is obviously we do our best to plan but I would say the boxing bit and the quad bit Hey, you got to strike really hard happen really fast. My favorite is reading the TikTok comments Ryan like Anything that involves you you just like get a pass whether it's bad or good or cool or not cool or funny or unfunny Everyone's just like Abbott like that's quad that's that's what quad would do. That's what quad does They just he gets a pass now for everything. It's really not four wheels down. It's it's no I don't I don't like the No, I love it sideways, but I don't really like saying four wheels down. I don't know who Who quad four wheels down? I just it doesn't like I love quad throwing up four four wheels down Yeah, four wheels down four wheel you know Ryan. He doesn't get off the ground four. Yeah, okay, cuz I was like four wheels down means You never really but I wasn't thinking about jumping. What's what's probably one of your other favorite bits of the year if you had to pick being that After this we're gonna have the next podcast is the best of Podcast and actually it's I think it's one of my favorites of the year cuz it's just it's just a lot of It's just gold throughout the year, but what would you say is one of your best video moments of the year? Oh I don't remember we did last week That's what did we do last week? Oh, oh best video of the year you asking Gavin three wheeler off against Dr. David best video of the year That was my that was my favorite video the year. I feel like can you guys think of a different? We all got to think of a different Yeah, I agree. I agree that was top tier putting Cheetos in the minivan. I had a Bantastic you are one six six fellow. I will say that probably the cheap car challenge was One of my favorite part one or part two just just like to set up part two part two was I think our best video of the year As far as like ideas execution and Delivery and that video got flagged for something. No, no, no, no that one didn't yeah, it's almost got five million views That one's crazy. The other ones got seven million views is part one motorcycle the motorcycle part two and the motorcycle part two is better than part one Is a we yeah, but man the Gavin three wheeler off with Dr. David. I was pretty damn Up him crashing that three wheeler going out the loading ramp I also think is one of the fan favorite videos of the or moments of the year Just off of like what I see on tiktok and just comments is me driving the school bus with Ken in the back seat Oh, yeah, and Ken getting thrown up in the back seat like pro Because that moment is watching that footage back of that is like is this real? I know these guys are always finding themselves in crazy situations But seeing you bounce on those seats and against the roof like you are That hurt incredibly bad like I was jammed up for probably two weeks. I don't think anyone questions that can't you got a ragdoll bro I was just glad that you're okay best build of the year. Oh houseboat Yeah, or the Harley or the Harley Davidson four wheeler. I was gonna say Davidson four wheeler quality houseboat as far as everyone was involved and and like from idea to execution to the Video for as a whole and it also turned out 10 times better than any of us thought best build in my opinion for seven Magnum I thought you were gonna say that last meata the LS meata was a great bill. Okay, that's actually the best build except for it has fucking cray paper ball joints. What was your favorite Mike? Dude, I always go back to like the cheap car challenge that was super fun and then like I don't underrated for me was still like when we built the halfpipe in the back The two ideas that I think were my favorite but they didn't work actually happened in the last month Breaking into the armored truck. I think on paper is a fucking genius idea I just don't think it went as well as we'd hoped and the cheapest is expensive mega quad Those were like I think those were so good on paper. armored truck was like such a crazy situation of him just Hitting the door and just popping open dude, so a lot of people actually Really don't like that video because they thought that it was scripted and fake yeah, which pisses me off because Gavin is So entertaining and he's so extravagant that people think that it's fake and that's just how he is that is how he is And it's not scripted. It's not none of it is fake It just comes off so unbelievable because nobody knows a human like Gavin to be that that extravagant that insane Yeah, and uh and they didn't like that video because it was like all kind of centered around Gavin doing this this Feet of breaking into the armored vehicle and I don't know people just didn't like it But you just don't know Gavin and that's why you think that it's like Set up but like that's just how he is when the cameras are on or the cameras are off It was kind of insane like we expected it to take him So much longer to actually like break into that thing where we had to like stall him But we thought it'd be quicker for him with the fucking shovel Oh Like we're like actually getting into that armored truck. We're like oh, it's gonna take him all afternoon Then the taking this thing out of the sand hills gonna take ten minutes and it was just complete opposite So you know what's tough is like scrolling through all of the the past videos of this year I see the title and thumbnails, but I was just about to say the same thing I never remember the the second part of the video and a lot of times third part of the video Because we do so much shit and those are my favorite bands always and those those are like the fans Favorite bits as well moments like that are just harder to title and thumbnail around So as far as like when we're trying to make videos that are gonna get you know as many people watching and most clicks right But that's something that we're trying to integrate into the videos like for 2026 is having more like be type ideas Be more title and thumbnails and like a good example of that would be money mics junk tank We did that two years ago. It was just a back end bit people loved it and we're like oh This is something that we could probably do again and do bigger and make more of a thing And then hopefully title and thumbnail around it and we did see boys TV junk tank Nobody knows what junk tank is besides for the people that watched it the year before And it's like one of our biggest videos in the last month So it's like it clearly works work it and That's something that we want to like build out more and more because like The builds and those types of videos are always super easy to title and thumbnail around Whereas like the abstract ideas that we have of like that are more personality based like letting Ryan live out his lifelong dream of becoming a singer And yeah, okay. Yeah, it's hard to tie it on the thumbnail around next time If we do something around it like quad quads back or something it's a return a quad The return it's hard the return a quad viral. I thought I was so off though. I mean I I didn't I didn't know who's gonna take Quads coming back in 2026 you quad in Vegas. It's gonna go insane quads full Album is coming out 2026 so so that's something that she looking forward to quads fourth reunion because that's gonna be something a big one You don't want to miss yeah, yeah, yeah, we're ways out, but you know like the channel has evolved over the last Eight years nine years almost 10 and now I think it's to a point where no matter what we do people are gonna watch So it's like kind of gives us more creative freedom and like that which I'm excited about to be able to lean more into in 2026 right and the fact that all of our videos I'd say almost all of our videos like they have that bonus pay like all of our videos are Titled and thumbnail around one thing and they always come with one two three extra things I mean, that's just the beauty of it and then we can test stuff and then it works and then moving to title and thumbnail around it Yeah, we got some great ideas already the boards are already full. Yeah as far as ideas go for for next year So I'm excited, but yeah, we gained a million subscribers on the main channel 500 million views, which is insane. That's pretty wild. Yeah Thank you to you guys. Yeah, that's especially thing. I do. I love hearing when people say like oh, I watch the podcast because I know like Those people are really and now that's thing too like for the podcast listeners a lot of times we're like Talking about you know what we're doing in like the next video or things like that Where some people wouldn't want to but I think it's like kind of a cool like Exclusive look into it of like I know these people clearly fuck with us and they're gonna watch the videos or listen to the pod no matter what It's cool to like incorporate you guys into our lives Before the video goes I promise we won't spoil the video like the video still be good We just we just give you like an inside look on to it and a lot of times when we talk about something that's coming up We it's because we can't help it. Yeah, we're excited. What was your favorite? I'm pretty sure this was after the new year But the old truck bit where I ended up were me and Canada car accident So it's like you slid into the chicken go and I hit the chicken coop. It's one of those you also hit me we we really add Just it's just a very simple formula. Yep, get in some four-wheel drive vehicles go have a day Oh rules. It's my favorite to participate in and then yeah, I just think it's it's a good time We got some ideas of that nature coming up next year that are gonna be good those are those are always my favorite like Anytime we just get two to four of the same or similar type machine It could be a dirt bike or a car or a truck No bill and then we just like go get after it. It's a foolproof idea because as soon as there's like three of us in different vehicles are on different vehicles It's just gets rowdy and it gets chaotic and that's when like the magic happens It's hard to capture which is a lot of times why we we like refrain from just like letting all hell break loose But I think we're at a point now where like we've gotten so much better at just capturing the chaos because we've been doing it for 10 years We're now we can kind of like go back to the old ways of just like Consume a ham and being chaotic and I like how it kind of brings out like the one up like yeah If someone has a nice truck and a shitty truck it's harder because you're like oh the guy in the nice truck Whatever yeah, when everyone's playing with the same stuff. Yeah, that's your bring some competitive. Yeah, exactly That is just a good point level the playing field bring out the competitiveness Yeah, yeah, that was a good one though Can you can I said the Cheeto bit when we that was good It was like the part that you put a bunch of weeners in this it was actually decent want to work because we had to stop We we stopped by a Walmart. We picked up a all the hot like we did our car broken down So we just deal with the the toll rig. Yeah And it was just it was a decent one of work to try and like set that up and then get up early in the morning and then I Intercept CJ a lot of work you had to push the cart from Walmart to the car I had to go to Walmart. Yeah, I had to drive our it was like 2023 AT4 truck because our other car broke down Well, it was all right Kenny. I'm sorry. It was it was a little bit of setup So hey speak it just because we've talked about the car tour a few times Do you still think that I was being malicious when I threw that rock through the window? No, uh now that I Review the footage I freaked out Did you see the connection that they just had play it back I love you. I'm sorry Oh Ever seen in my life, I would never try to hurt you intentionally. Can't it's cuz he's not hugging back actually you're well That one I did the first one I was confused. I didn't know where we're going the second one you didn't I went like this How many do you tell Christmas miracle how you're just trying to get for a Christmas miracle? What was yours right? Quad, I don't think quad was my favorite to be honest with you. I think it was that was favorite though. I Really loved do we need to run the house boat back just so I can be not sick. Yeah, that's I think I would have Filming it, but God was red next to paychecks. Oh, yeah, that was it that the final product of it was great Paychecks just for the experience What's going on? I wasn't planning to but I went sober for red next with paychecks because I I had to deal with you Well, I had to double down for you Yeah, can you do twice as drunk as he normally would I didn't start drinking till we got back to the airport on the flight home Dude shred 80 doing that hill on in the Barbie Jeep Going down the hill in the Barbie Jeep takes a cake for Narla's shit I've seen all year. No dude. I've seen the footage obviously. I missed it there I think him hit him bucking up to the rainbow rail multiple times. Yeah, that hill's gnarly, but that rainbow rail is Really nice going down the rainbow rail at least had a chance of success. I think it did I think I think I think you could have done it I think he could have done he could have done it on the first one But he wasn't going fast enough and he said that multiple times He's like I could have made it, but I I pushed down and I let off Narlie is insanely steep you are crashing no matter what I was on the side of the hill just trying to film it and I was falling down the thing and by no means am I taking anything away from Barbie Jeep Hill I'm trying to put emphasis on how Narley that rainbow rail actually is or spenny just 50/50 I agree I think that is heavy. I think if you put let's say 25 people went on the Barbie Jeep Hill if you put 25 people on a three-wheeler and they had to do the rainbow rail More people would have gotten hurt there than they would have on the Barbie Jeep Hill. It's true. All right. I'm curious What Shred 80 thinks was was the Narlie a stunt was the narlie a stunt of the year. Hey Oh, nice. I'll get spenny in here. Let me face. I'm spenny What do you think is the narliest thing that you did this year on on see boys vids? Hitting the rail for the second time hands down. That's what I that's what I was saying. Oh on gav Do you feel that the rainbow rail is a more Narlie challenge than Barbie Jeep at red next with paychecks I Agreed that's what I said everyone else said the Barbie Jeep was more narlie I said rainbow rail the rainbow rail You can actually die on you're not gonna die during the Barbie Jeep you might get really hurt But you can actually die on the rainbow rail. I agree with you gav. Yeah, yeah, I don't know Dude, I thought the Barbie Jeep Hill was narlie That was all though really bad once and then what what was your favorite video? Favorite video that we told yeah cheap car challenge you didn't enjoy Dr. David. No, I mean, of course. Oh, I love Dr. David too I said that was my favorite video of the year the Dr. David video Took a pounding in that one spenny. What was what was your spenny? You can't say one night Probably the three stack tire Three style tire was not really that was so slept on about Narlie that was what's that called spenny? Three stacks bladder tire splatter. Yeah, that was that was Okay, and then favorite bid Mike's batch for sure That was a good that is a good one. He's just miss my bag Mike's badge and wedding combo Oh, yeah, that was that was for me I was like forget about I mean the cheap car challenge was really really fun, but Mike's batch was like insane Spenny wasn't it me and you that were riding around on the stand-up jet skis and yeah, and it was that night and we're just like There's no way God isn't real. This is too crazy. You're the you fork moment. It was literally both of us like together We're like this isn't real. Yeah, bro. It was just the craziest like glassy sunrise sunset rip like it just Looked like it was out of a movie. Yeah, that was insane That was a moment that was Mike's batch was like a really good time Did I tell people they ask how it was? I said I peaked because it was like the most fun I've ever had You know Ryan you're gonna have a a tough time peaking for Ben and CJ's batch work. I haven't been enlisted to do that But if they need me you know if they need me out here, you're just the bachelor party guy now though I don't get the pleasure of being a best man, but I do get to play the bachelor party Spenny I thought maybe you were gonna say riding mopeds in florida Good time to spawn too. That was yeah, dude. There's so many things that I oh redness of paychecks man I read nice of paychecks for sure almost that was on mine too and I said least favorite to film But probably my favorite to look back. Oh, it was your favorite moment from red next to paychecks gap on camera on camera off camera From what he'd feed up there from the top of rich. Oh watching Evan jump That was crazy I forgot about that one you didn't know I could eat a fall like that did you that was perfect I can roll off the very top of a razor perfect dude, and then from the expert and then me and shreds stop this guy from beat He probably could have held his own though, so I couldn't have held another year Shit, yeah, that was that was a good year boys. I mean honestly, there was too many good moments filming even Gab I figured you'd bring up that time where you were on the track with your three-wheeler and Dalton and Spenny were ripping That was Gav's most terrified I don't think I've ever been that that was death by mad at this moment of the whole year Were you more mad in the were you more mad than in that moment then you were when we were making you dig Oh, do you should have seen me light up Dalton that day. I was so fucking mad at you Were you more mad about that moment or when you're getting chased around on the the track off camera How higher you right now again, I didn't I didn't have a CBD massage Why are you always worried about the CBD massages? What do they do? All right boys, well, I just wanted to call and get your guys is a get your thoughts on the year you're a big part of the channel success and and Look forward to next year Lovey boys. Oh, absolutely get spenny's a little Canadian ass down here Evan just fucking licked his lips thinking about it, dude That was Ken. That was Ken. Why do you think he's working so hard on the visa? Need some fresh meat. Yeah, Dalton. What was uh later boys? What was your favorite video to make and it better not be the cake in my face? Probably a cheap car challenge Yeah, that was so well. That was fun. I was absolutely vibing in that van We should shave our heads again. I've literally like yeah, I've never just felt more like Free than that than that trip like we were. Yeah, shaving our heads and just like we were riding skateboards and random places That was so much fun and it's just like it was good to get out and we all loved it and everyone's good to get out and then Yeah, my you get so cooped up, you know get out of small town corner on everyone's and all and then what was your favorite video or video bit to watch? real vs. fecuna corn In the dark ludge. I do. I don't know. I love them all so much. It's on the sea. No, no, no, no, lame answer Yeah, it's not that just take something we all had the same thought we're just using it to like just surface I don't know bro insane. All right, I don't know like I legitimately cannot pick one. I do respect that you're like oh, they were all good Yeah, as long as you aren't lying Gav stroll over there. I got to ask you two questions put your wrenches away. Yes, sir I can ask me more than two if you'd like. All right. Gav. What was your favorite build favorite build? Yeah Don't say wouldn't dirt bikes that thing bro. The thing was awesome the chain tensioner broke immediately Afterwards favorite build in terms of how dialed it was was the Stark 3. I agree that thing was good I've got the same thing about the Stark snow bike. I thought that thing worked really well, too Yeah, it sure did and the earliest thing I did. That's easy box one of my best friends And what was your favorite video to watch the white monster bit Yeah, I was special. I might may have shed a tear really did you did you cry watching it? Yeah, I mean just like one tear But then you then uses that on his wings like I make videos that people they cry in they laugh He shed the tear because while he was watching you had that pilot cash on his lap Look at so rich sitting on the couch like Scrooge McDuckis bathing in it Making rain over and over again I like actually do have one that trumps all of the all of the other videos I'm going to watch remember when little pilot couldn't fight the three with So his favorite was armored truck no Second pirate when did we do humble the boat? Oh, okay, we're probably I just remember when the first little pirate got born like We need we need to release the footage that was never seen that I filmed from inside the cab of the truck when Dalton was giving Shreds instructions on how to do rollers and the armored truck is running terrible Gavin's to the floor and the things backfire in and whatever and Dalton's getting Visibly agitated waging them on and Gavin is screaming. I was screaming at me. I know I saw what was happening because it's what you do to me every time We do rollers, but it was way funner watching you do it to somebody else. Yeah, I don't know. I I think we just like didn't get that footage Like I saw don't I haven't seen it. It's on my phone. I know. I haven't felt it on your phone. You handed me I want to watch it now Film this pop it up. So this is some never-before-seen footage of Gavin's driving the armored truck It was funny. I ran into the original owners of that armored truck at the bar last weekend. Really? So they sold it to Buddy for a thousand. No, and what do we pay 4500? Oh, and you know what the annual buddy said that they never ran where the piss the guy I bought it from goes This thing ran mint. He also was like like ghost in me when you were like on your way over there, and then he was like So okay, he freaked out a little less than I thought he did, but he was getting fairly frazzled, but I don't get into it. Ken, do you have any favorite Christmas sweets? Cookies, sweets, coffee, the peppermint. Evan, I know you don't have any Christmas sweets. You eat all of them. Catch me at the ball egg now, fuck the sweets. You ask Ken if he has any favorite sweets, and you ask Evan if he has any sweets and then says he doesn't because he ate them all. I'm not a sweet guy. They're been a sweet guy. Sydney and I just made those almond bark covered pretzels. Dude, those are ass, I'm sorry. Pretzel suck. I'm taken. You know, people like pretzels. That's bullshit. First off, Dr. David brought us some of the best pretzels I've had. Those are good pretzels. Also, once you just said pretzels were ass. You know, I got to say the almond bark pretzels. Those are probably top five. Man, you know what I was here. CJ just slapping on a bag of nuts right now. That boy loves nuts. He would have gone through probably two bags. Yeah, I mean, it's just a long podcast. He definitely would have broke back out the nuts to finish off the bag. He would have been concerned to see Ben eating his jerky. Yes, he would have been. Yeah, so we actually have this theory that we've been talking about around the shop lately. So every two weeks, CJ gets a subscription of a bag of jerky that has like. Well, six bags, basically six bags of jerky, right? And it shows up in this bag, right? Five Amazon or V.A. And it's still to be determined whether it's via our via. We haven't figured that out. But it's it's sent to CJ Lotser every two weeks thinking that it's something else. He orders. He'll rip it open. And they'll be like, "More fucking jerky!" Every single time, like it's every two weeks, like it's it's gotten to the point where it's just entertainment for us. So I'm like, "Hey, CJ just got his bag of jerky. You guys want to get together so we can watch him open it, thinking it's something else. And then finding out it's more jerky, right?" I think what he did was, is he signed up for a free subscription, but it has like reoccurring billing. Yeah, no, so siege Every single week was more fucking jerky and then it's always disappointed thinking that it's like something else He always eats it like his office is full of beef jerky right? I guarantee what he did. He bought it on Amazon one time Accidently clip clicked subscribe and save just defaults to every two weeks Which is most common and that was just on his plan. It's what he did, but he Refuses that that's the case It actually is it's really tough to figure out what you have on subscribe and save like find it on Amazon Oh expensive do you think that is less than 50 but 50 much a month? It's pretty good. Well, what if we all got subscriptions to it Oh, but got him sent here in CJ's name so like every and but we got a More beef jerky than we can eat dude. It'd be just even if we have every day is another bundle of jerky Yeah, every two days but you see the real kicker here is he's convinced that it's a PR package He's convinced that it's the company sending him the PR. Yeah, and but I'm not ruling that out But that's what I thought maybe they could be persistent like you really want Okay, this is exactly what CJ did subscribe and save and save 10 percent. That's exactly what he did How much does that cost per month? 33 bucks no 33 bucks a pop so every two weeks every two weeks I'm spending 66 bucks a month, so I'm beef jerky that he doesn't can you sign us all up for a couple months subscription I think we do this for the next two three months. It's still up in the air. I'm not really you maybe think they're sending it to us because I know initially they probably earned a couple more fucking months with the So it's really good beef jerky. It is great beef jerky. So beef cake. It started by a youtuber his name's flair It's great beef jerky and Initially we got it sent to us because flares are boy and now CJ is swimming in beef jerky Like he has like a hundred bags in his office. That's what I could grab In there and he's editing he's I sneak a bag here in there. Yeah, I do too every time I walk in there I'll grab a bag Like he's never gonna notice his is gone. It's nice about you let's I've never seen him be stingy on it at all Obviously because he has so much, but he is stingy on his nuts. He is stingy on his nuts So because he's a germafold that's why and oh yeah, he doesn't want your hands in it We bring up the topic that he is his own fridge in the kitchen She does I've had to explain that to guests that come over be like just don't touch anything in that fridge Oh, what but like it's just CJ's just don't go in there That's CJ's fridge in the kitchen that it's not just in his office Is that that fridge just should be in his office? I never thought about it like that Evan You got a couple people shoot you're shooting pool. It's right next to the table and you're like, oh, yeah Yeah, that fridge free game that fridge opposite of free. Yeah, don't they're like good I didn't want all it is Vita cocoa water Kambucha, is that his fridge? Yeah, it's only his shitton it for the last I will admit I whenever I want something to not disappear right away. I you put it back on that I put it in CJ That's my go to fridge to grab water out that I put the waters in there because I always know well now you figured it out The water waters are fair waters are always fair, but I put the waters in CJ's fridge because they go a lot slower I have a fridge I'll grab the label. It was always like the weird Like the weird snacks in that fridge that Jen specifically buys for CJ He's on this he's on a specific diet. So that's why as why he has this No eating on the podcast I'm getting hard on here. I'm serious Ken. I've never but hear my words And and might I add it took a crazy term because that was actually the Tony fridge that we used to drink out of and then one day It's all hell food. No booze. I'm like, I don't get what happened here, but I'm staying the hell away from it Evan Evan of boys have fridge like the plague dude. He'll walk around the pool table the other way So he doesn't get close to it. Well, it was because of CJ having his own fridge I went about my own fridge as well It's ever I keep mine in in in the room at least Imagine how rattled he'd be if he showed up tomorrow in that fridge was in his office Well, I was just gonna say we should just fill it back full of beer again like he used to be just full of course lights Anyone know where my nuts went Send us a text in the group chat. What's your new year's resolution man? I'm actually trying to be more skateboard. Yeah, I will I will I'll drop in on a skateboard and I want to learn how to kick Flip. Oh my drop-in will have a very Resolutions can't be about skating Sort of crazy, but also so Accomplishable you could do it in like no time. I like while I'm a bad The kickflips were looking like six more drop-ins more risk for injury, but easier I could drop in within five tries. I think so I think you get to I'm just saying there's a chance I might eat shit the first floor but the kickflip might take you a hundred or a thousand tries, but like there's not much risk for injury Dude, I'm bad at skateboarding. Yeah, yeah, but I think you got it the way I want to learn how to drop in I want to learn how to kick flip anything else. I was gonna say I want to be more present like I want to spend less time on my phone Dude, I'm down for you bringing more presents So that yeah, that that's kind of what I'm thinking it does make a huge difference like Just putting a time limit on apps like having to consciously click the button to say Ignore for 30 minutes or ignore for an hour. I was always against that and then I did it and I it makes such a huge difference I think you're seeing if you click on the app it doesn't let you in Like you can only use the app for 30 minutes or an hour a day if you go over that you have to say you have to consciously click Ignore for a hour. Let me let me keep using it And then it just keeps you in check of like whatever you could set that time limit at five minutes or five hours But it keeps you in check of whatever you want your time limit to be what you guys mine is nothing special, but it's just Like to post more. I don't like post that much It's like once a month on Instagram and then like snapchat. I'm always behind like just just be more dialed and you're not behind on snapchat You're posting things you are in the future You're posting me for it happens You're posting the idea. All right. Well, then I guess yo. I just found out that Evan got a new Lamborghini, huh? Sorry, keep going So to keep posting in the future and then also I have this thought of like like a perfectionist in some ways And it's way better to just like do a good job do at the time you have and then like send it out or whatever or order that product or Or you know like post the video or do whatever you're gonna do or even the fix even if you're Jerry rigging it It's better to like get it fixed than just not do anything at all close your mental loops Yeah, yeah, just better to just yeah like just complete it at what it is and just be happy that you completed it versus being a Perfectionist and stress yourself out and do more thinkless. Yeah. Yeah To dumb it down into four words. I completely would put that as one of my resolutions How about you have I don't I really don't want a piggyback, but I agree. I've been terrible Instagram snapchat everything I've had on Instagram. You got post. Yep. I haven't been posting. I haven't been posting at all and So I want to get get back on that and then I Really just want to I want to mess some bikes up I'm really more hyped for wheelies. I got out on the ice and that literally fired me up so much I got five minutes my bike blew up is what it is But like it felt so good and I feel that like literally little sparks so hard that like I noticed that I want to like I want a ride bikes period a lot every discipline But like I am so stoked to do some wheelies like I don't know what I've been doing. I just have been lacking I know what you've been doing more of this less of this Potentially, but yeah get back on the social media game and do some wheelies and a lot of dirt bikes in general Riding in general. Honestly like I've I've I glanced up at that YFZ the quad. Well right and Helen like I want to have a track day with quads You might even catch the guy mob on a side by side next year. Oh, no, no, you say mob on a quad Well, yeah, I've always said quads are gay, but I have fun riding They are do everyone can agree with that. It is fun. Yeah, they're fun. They're fun. They're fun. Did you donate on their cheat code for wheelies and they're honestly super fun To hit jumps with maybe they just look bad compared to a bike, but quads are they're all right. All right. Don't clip that. They're not as bad as some people say They're all right kind of what's your New Year's resolutions? I Want to really continue like doing my health thing and really trying to dial in my diet I think that's the the next step of what I'm trying to do. So what is that stuff you speak of? I've started going to more to the gym. Not more. I've tried to go into the gym every day Yeah, I stopped vaping. Yep. Um, and now I think the next step is dialing in my diet. You quit drinking beer too Obviously you're drinking beer right now, but when you go to the bar. I drink vodka. Yeah, right. I'd rarely drink beer. I tried that candidate - He got me into more trouble. (laughs) - I think it depends on like, - You can't always just replace beer with vodka. And expect nothing is gonna get set in the motion with that. - But it depends on like what the liquor is made of. Like is it potato, is it green? That makes a difference for you. - That's the difference of you running into a swamp? (laughs) - Yeah, you gotta ask Ev, when you're drinking this is it potato? - Is it potato, is it green? - It does make a difference though. - I don't know, but that's what I'm trying to continue rolling into for the next year itself. - And I think it's okay to roll them in. I think that's totally good. - It's just building on what I've done already for this year, trying to make that next step for next year. - Lock it in, really lock it in. But also I'd say you're vaping. Like, as long as you can continue on that, then that's the best news. - And I did do a blood test. I do have the results. I came back negative. - For me. - I did, yeah. - It's crazy that you're gonna get a blood test. - Well, we're doing it for vape. - We're doing a bunch of insurance. - Oh, nice. - When you actually complete it, which I did, and you haven't yet, so. - Any skate goals? (laughing) - Maybe if I can ride more than three feet. - Oh, come on, that's too easy. - If I can just get flattened level down. - I think drop. - That's good for me. - I think dropping a drift. - I'm not letting you just drop in. - Oh yeah, let me get flattened level down for more than three feet. - I don't know, I think I'm gonna rather drop in. - Brian, what are your skate goals for 2026? - My real ones, too. - My skate goals are to continue to just let skating progress without me. (laughing) I felt like I really been holding the sport of skating back, so just let that keep going on and say goodbye. - How excited are you for the quad world tour? (laughing) - I'm gonna work on things that are more important. - Can you striking fear into this man's eyes of that statement? - My actual goals are-- - Thanks for trying to make some money in this year. He's gotta get his talent out on the road. - My actual goals, one is to ask better questions, more intellectual and just ask more questions. Be more inquisitive on things. Instead of going like, yeah, right? Like really get into things. - Second one scenarios. - Just like in general, I think I take things for how people will tell them to me and I don't ask them more about them. Like if you're like, I've really been enjoying the gym and be like, oh, that's really cool, good for you. That would be like my response. Instead of being like, really, that's cool. When did you start going, you know, like asking a better question? Gapening, or bentervue? - Or bentervue. - I probably would prefer more towards the bentervue, but you know, we'll take what we can. Second thing would be, no, I want to like eliminate social media at home. I don't want to do it much here, but I don't have a problem with scrolling here too much 'cause we're working, but when I get at home, sometimes it's just really easy to like, just hit a scroll. - Stigging into your TV time. - Yeah, it's digging into my Fortnite time and my TV time. - You really got to, like make the most of your episodes. - Yeah, big screen time. I want to have big screen time. - You got a little store bulb. - But yeah, that's my, let's-- - It's not like, I really, any of us are going to be monitoring that. Nor will we be like, Ryan, what are you doing? Well, I'm just curious, like, what would you implement to like do that? - Just normally when I pick up my phone and start scrolling on it, just not do it. - Self-conjured. Ryan, I love how you said that because that's exactly what I was saying. When my cast like, what a elaborate contraption, you're gonna have to keep you from doing it. You was like, "Bob, I'm just gonna like not do it." - I think I've done it a few times where I'll drop my phone in the drawer of my desk and I kind of know when it's in there. - Ooh, you just put it away. - But then so many times, I've ran down the stairs for something that's happening. And it's not like, I need you to be filming this, but it's just like, I need to-- - How was my Snapchat gonna know? - Yeah, like, you find some, "Oh, I've been looking for that." And then you need to send a picture of it to your friend or to update them on something and then I'm like, "Oh, well, if I intentionally left my phone up there." - And now you're gone. - Yeah, now you're just like, "Well, if I were to just brought it with me." - My issue with that is whenever I try and do that and then I unsilence it. It's like, holy shit, World War Three just broke up. - Oh, every time. - Every time. And then I'm like, I got a lot to catch up on. And then I'm like, almost more stressed of like, that's what I'm saying. - I'm like, "Sorry, I missed this whole conversation, but here's my two cents in here." - But I think a lot of times I go, "What's happening in the group chat? "I pick it up." It's like one question and then the phone's open and then you just-- - The same. - I see a lot more value in that in saying like, just automatically at 10 o'clock, your phone goes on, "Do not disturb." Not like a location specific, just like a time specific. - 10 o'clock, I am just unavailable. - Yeah, like-- - You guys already are because I send so many texts in our group chat. - You're the latest. - Yeah, you're the latest. - I'll see something to like 12 soon. - I'm just like laying in bed and something comes to mind and I'm just like, "Grab my phone." Like, it's pretty much every single night, trying to go to bed. My brain starts going, "Grab my phone." Like, still like with my eyes closed, I'll feel around on my nightstand, grab my phone, and then just fire off a text to you guys. - I always wondered what it was like. I appreciate it 'cause I just wake up to it, and then in the morning, I just handle whatever it is to be good. - I figured you were up sitting at your desk with a cup of tea, fully alert. So it's nice to know that you were also tired of sending that message. - Yeah, I mean, obviously like I'm awake when you send most of 'em. And like sometimes, 'cause you are the only one that ever responds to it. - So yeah, I was like sometimes I respond, and then other times I might just be like, "I'm in night mode, so I don't, I'll admit that." And then other times, bends firing such an insane or such a good or such an elaborate idea that it's just like, "I read it," and I think about it. I'm just like, "We're gonna get back to that one." - I love the two-screen, two-fold-scroll screen plans at like 11.30. It's more times than not. - I'm just like 10 minutes typing this thing out. - And then most of us that are tired have to read it four times just to figure out what you said. Most of it, it's got so many spelling errors and typos too, 'cause I'm timing a one-on-one open. - I'm saying, you're pretty in depth with your texal, like you're pretty-- - Yeah, I just say what's up. - I just start firing ideas when I am trying to go to bed. And then I just, I don't wanna forget them. I don't wanna forget them. And I also get excited about 'em, and I want to share the excitement with you guys hoping that you'll reciprocate the excitement and be excited with me. And then 98% of the time, it just goes unanswered. - Well, hey, I'm gonna tell the next morning and I follow up like schedule it. - So did you guys, hey, I'm not gonna start scheduling texts. - Gavin, I don't know. - I don't know. - I don't even know how the hell you can learn about. - You can schedule a text, it's great. - That's nature, it's nice. - You push the plus button, scroll down the schedule, send, tell it the time and day you want it to send. - I need to start doing that. - I need to start doing that for people like our accountant, our banker, 'cause I do the same shit to them too. I do the same, like I'll fire off ideas way too late at night, but the thing is, is I always say, if they don't like receiving text like this, I don't think that we're a good match of first certain, like being in business together. Like things like that. And I think about that too with like our other business partners or like things like that. I'm like, eh, I don't care. 'Cause Greta's always on me of like, don't you think this is like super unprofessional and like not what you should be doing late at night of like bothering other people? And I'm like, I'm like, I get that Greta, and I tell the same thing, I go, if they get annoyed by my late night ideas that benefit all of us, like to, you know, whatever we're doing, then I don't wanna be in business with them or be affiliated with them 'cause we're not on the same wavelength. 99% of the time, they always respond by 8 a.m. the next morning. Right. And it is a little different if you have like an idea or something like you really need to tell them, regardless of what time it is. But I did think that like the scheduled text is like a good way to like our insurance agent is our friend and I'll text her at whatever time. And then I just, that's when I first started scheduling text. I'm like, I guess I don't need a text at Sunday at 8 p.m. or whatever, but I find it really nice when they do respond. And then people always like, you're always talking about insurance like when we're out at the bar or something. But I'm like, well, it's a good time to get her done. I'm sure a lot of people are like that, though. You're just like your brain starts working as soon as you start going to bed and that's usually when I try and capitalize on it. Trying to think if I could use this scheduling platform and mess with Big Red. Oh my God. Oh my God. You know who I'm gonna do this to? What do you mean? Schedule a text to go to Dave Sherbrook at 3 a.m. and just go you up. (laughing) And then it'll probably be up. And then I gotta send a follow up and just be like, been working for two hours now. Was just wondering if you were getting at it already 'cause he's like the big like, oh, if you're not up at 4 a.m. working, you're lazy kind of guy. You can basically send it from like a year from now. I want to sit down for 20 minutes and schedule out five months worth of text to Big Ranch. Everybody's asking, what jetting for my 97 YZ250? Just randomly at 4 a.m. He'll be up at that time too. You will. That you're gonna say everybody's birthdays be lit. You just get all your birthday texts out of the way for the year? That's a good idea. That's what I've been saying this for the last time. That's nice. If someone texts you, hey bro, send me that. Picture from last night AI your app your phone should just pull it up. Yeah, and just say do you want to send this? Well, I might pull up the wrong picture from last night. You're right, but it knows that it Ben text me Ben's in the picture ruin Evan's life All right, I just scheduled a text to you Evan that says you up at 1159 on December 31st hell. Yeah. Oh, I will be It's new years. I will be I'll be noodles. I'll be up. Oh, come on now Your phone right now and schedule a text at 12 o'clock 12 o' 1 on January 1st 2026 and just be like yeah, bro. What's up, I think you she's scheduled a text. Oh my god My gosh, you know, that's just silly, but I I like it because you know what we can milk this up But by 12 or three or four. I want to say happy New Year's Well, you you can schedule that. That's what I'm saying Yo, that's actually a pretty funny idea.
