King Batch discusses the origin of his nickname "King Batch," tracing it back to his last name and a high school incident where he stood out for his creative presentation. He clarifies that his viral videos, such as those involving fictional robberies, are satirical and not racist, emphasizing they are meant to entertain rather than promote violence. Batch denies a misquoted statement about harming people for fame, stating it was taken out of context and never intended to be literal. He acknowledges the positive impact his content may have had on public perception of Black people, while also recognizing that racism remains deeply rooted in history. The conversation reveals a tense relationship with his manager, who he claims has taken control of his career and finances through an exploitative, possibly abusive arrangement. Batch humorously suggests that his videos may have amused white audiences, including the KKK, due to their comedic tone, though he disavows any racist intent. He explains the cultural significance of Black slang, like “see” or “she,” as a form of expression rooted in African American Vernacular English. The episode blends personal anecdotes, cultural commentary, and light-hearted satire, offering insight into how digital influence, identity, and community values shape internet content and public discourse.

I do entertainment stuff not only like you know, like videos and and movie sometimes and Yeah, just a nice guy. All right. Cool. So who decided you were the king of all black people? Oh, oh shit No, the king batch actually came from like a a nickname in high school. Oh, yeah, it's king botcher king block I couldn't tell oh no batch like a batch of cookies Okay, so you got the name because of cookies. I don't get it. Uh, what so so batch B.A.C.H It's pronounced box so a lot of people would say like box because if you just get yeah, that's how they would say the chicken sort of right Box right yeah, but like the the the box batch comes from my last name, which is bachelor You cut that in half you get batch, but the best way for me to say is like oh, you pronounce it batch like a batch of cookies But the king party still because you're the king of the blocks would know because you're most sophisticated in them most of them Well, what what makes you say that? I don't know. I'm just what does was my guess you speak sort of well Oh, I'm all right, but like the nickname king came from I was in I was in high school and I was the only person that dressed up for this like history project. Yeah, and oh he could get the audio right and And then the teacher was like, oh look at king batch over there. Okay, so he kind of just stuck with you from there. Yeah, yeah from high school Yeah, but that's pretty cool. Yeah, I don't think there is anyone that's anointed as king of the blacks I don't I would say that if I had to pick one obviously, I'm not black so actually maybe that would make me a good person to choose Yeah, who's your unbiased opinion of who should be the king of that bad because you're kind of almost like half white I mean right the way you speak and the way your videos are he's kind of like you're making fun of them a little bit So it's like you kind of have got to that point when you say them who you who you're referring to those black fellow You can't say that those black fellas. Oh you said fellas. Yeah I said the end bomb. I'm saying because like, but I feel like you're the type of guy You wouldn't be too offended at that We're like one of the guys who would try giving somebody a card that says N word pass and then dap the like a white guy If he said it, I wouldn't do that, but I know I get where I get what you saying like you you see what you saying? I'm friendly like a friendly guy like you remind me of like a like some guy went to high school with that Would give people the N word pass wait you had people in high school that would give people the N word Yeah, it was just a black guy who wanted to be friends with people So he thought that I would make him friends with people. No, I don't work like that. Well, are you sure they said that to him? You had everybody saying the N word I didn't say it obviously today And actually as a matter of fact, I'm so underrated that I would like to do my part. Okay. Yeah, you go and get to the black community Yeah, I'm gonna give you some reparations here. Well, I'm not homeless. No reparations for what our people did to yours when we enslaved you guys You're American. Yeah, I'm like a British formerly, but like my people went back to slavery So I just wanted to make sure you know, I really do my part. Well, thank you. I accept this this five dollars in and well How much was it five five dollars and like 70 cents was a lot back in the day when your ancestors were slaves maybe now It's not but yeah, in the day that could have bought you a house. Okay, or yeah, you could have bought a house with five dollars Maybe like a cow or something. That's close enough. I mean, you sell enough of its product and you'll be able to buy a house I'm trying to get you on that path. You're a business man. I like that. Yeah, I mean in today's world that'll buy you like nothing Yeah, but it's just all that counts. Right. You're okay. I'll get it. I'll get something like Listerine Yeah, I don't even know if you could get that with what I gave you, but you'll get like you're like 80% the way there Yeah, thank you for that. I appreciate that you once said I'll do anything to get famous on social media I'll rip some fucking guys eye out and then slice his head off if it makes me Instagram famous Wait, that's a quote. I said that's your quote. Don't you see don't you see something wrong with this way of thinking wait Can you pull up the the source of that video because I don't remember saying that it wasn't it was in interview You did with the Wall Street Journal, I believe the Wall Street Journal. Is this a lie detector? Is that what that is? No, no, he's actually just monitoring Audio, okay. Well, yeah, so I never said that you did. I can read the quote for you. Yeah, really one more time Let me try and I'll do anything to get famous on social media I'll rip some fucking guys eye out and then slice his head off if it makes me Instagram famous What wait, I said I was king bad. Maybe that was king black. That's that's what like the king of the blacks in Africa would say But I'm pretty sure it was you. No, that wasn't me. I don't even talk like that really one more time I'm telling you that's what you said you said I'll do anything to get famous on social media. I'll rip some fucking guys eye out and slice his head off if it makes me Instagram famous damn But that would make me that would put me in jail Listen, I'm speaking on your behalf, right? I think what you were trying to say tell me what I was trying to say Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, is that you're you're willing to do anything not that you would do that specifically But if you had to go that far you'll do it. Wow. I did this influencer culture. I mean you're obviously one of the originals It's kind of like mm-hmm There needs to be some boundaries. Well fun fact. I never really wanted to be an influencer I was wanted to be an actor and then the the the internet stuff just came with it. So yeah, yeah Maybe I was like drugged or something when when I said that quote that I never said But but I mean he's fine if you don't agree with you now you're a changed person. No, I never said that You got I gave you some money now. You're kind of moving out of the scale. Yeah, you know what? We got to pay it for it. I'm gonna give it to your manager. Yeah. Well, no, I can't give me a 10% right? Yeah Yeah, there you go tempers. You're just giving him the change no 10% you to manage it He's trying to take the whole pie. He's how he does you he's trying to take everything. He takes everything Wow 99.987 we need a new manager. I got some people if you want to talk yeah Well, he has me I've already spoke about this, but he has me on a lifetime lifetime contract Yeah, he actually helped make me a human really kind of help like a what's it called that that thing where they are Put like the egg in the stuff and then they have the woman do it. It's like a surrogate. Oh, yeah So legally he owns me. It's like the guardian all of that stuff. So oh shit, okay He just like when I was like maybe a year a year old and I was trying to learn how to like write and stuff He probably just had me sign something and that's what that man If you need lawyers, I got some too. Yeah, but he has way more money than both of us combined Well now he does he just took all my shit. I gave that to you as reparations I mean, and I was trying to be nice and give the manager 10% what to read people. I mean, what does he need reparations for? Yeah, yeah, yeah, he is red today Good, you think yeah, go ahead. Do you think the KKK used to show each other your vines? I don't know. I feel like they would like them some of them at least which ones do you think they would like like the ones We did Jordans and the one with like the black guy robbing the people he robbed the white woman's purse, okay? I feel like that they send that around to each other. They're like you check this out. This is pretty funny So that's when my billion views came from the KKK. There's a lot more of us than you think really us You said us that was a Freudian right there, but let's forget it I'm just gonna cut that out. No more of them than you think okay, so All right, cool. I'm just saying it's like we use not you know like they probably used to say that you said that now you saying they but before you say us no No, they used to send that no, yeah, they used to send that stuff to each other probably probably you think they got mad when they realized this wasn't Blackface like holy shit. This is a real black guy like they probably thought you were one of them like this is some Yeah, they probably they're like holy shit now. We like him even more Like me they like black people. I'm saying they probably thought that you were doing blackface like wow This guy's racist and then they realized you were black doing those vines and then they were like holy shit this guy is like Even better than we thought. Oh, okay. Do you think there's any possibility of that? I don't think so. I don't think they I don't think they like me. You don't think so? No, okay? I don't think I helped their agenda, but they liked your vines at least. Yeah, well if they like the vines You for sure help their agenda. What's their agenda? I mean they're racist. Yeah, but don't they want to like end us? I feel like you were helping move the black people in that direction with some of your vines to like end to black people Yeah, it's like I mean I want to say I don't I want to say my vines would to kill people No, not to kill them, but you're helping moving that direction even just so slightly. Oh, okay It what was that was that unity? That's like I appreciate the work you've done. Oh Yeah, I disagree. Okay, but agree to disagree. Yeah, right. Wait. What's this again? Yeah, we agree to disagree now It's unity before I was appreciating you okay if Susan has 10 cookies And she gives Mark an Emma three cookies each how many wait hold on slow down who the fuck is Susan just it's like a math question Just okay, not real people. Okay, if Susan has 10 cookies. Yeah, she gives Mark an Emma three cookies each how many cookies does Susan have left?
after she adds another 5 times 478.4 divided by 18 and a half. - Well she got three cookies left. - No, that's really off. - What's the answer? - 133.297. - God damn. - Well how'd you get three? - I don't know, I just thought I would guess and get a lucky guess. - You were way off. - I was way off. - I told you, times 478.4. - And that's where you lost me. I'm not good at multiplication. - Yeah, well yeah, and then it odd something divided by 18 and a half. - Right, right. - So I guess like you were sort of there, like if there wasn't that part, you still would have got it wrong. It would have been four 'cause it's 10 minus six. - It was good because you started off with the 10 cookies and then she gave three and three. So-- - That's still not three. - Yeah, but like, that would be-- - You just assumed there was another change. - Yeah, I thought it was gonna be an easy question. I didn't know you'd just slap it on like that. You come with the hard-hitting questions here on the podcast. - It's a serious show. - Yeah, very serious. I love the production value you got now. It's like, this is very-- - Because it's like a tropical episode. You know what I mean? It makes everybody feel like festive, I guess. - Festive, right. - I'm actually, I'm just moving out of the studio and I wanna like, are you gonna get a real studio now? This is a real studio. I'm actually downgrading, but I just wanted to like, kind of insult the guy here just by putting a bunch of fucking mess in here. This is just old trees. I mean, that's what, a palm tree that's been dead for 300 years. - Oh wow, I thought you was stepping it up with the dirt. - Yeah, you're right. - Yeah. - What's this? - Black ice cream? - Hey, dog, I can get to my ice cream. - Only a spoonful. - Yeah. - Yeah. - Oh shit, you got a big spoon. - Oh! - Can I get some ice cream? - Only a spoonful, motherfucker. - Hold up. - What the fuck? - I'm telling you, we used to love your vines. - How do I open this shit? - God damn. This shit got child proof on it. - All right, here I come, here I come. Just, I mean, I feel like it can kind of just fit the whole thing. - Oh yeah, you can just do that. - You wanna try? - Yeah. - Oh, there we go. (laughing) - Wanna bite? That's a little game. I'm done. - Oh, you don't like gay shit? - No. - That was a little game. - Not bad. - So you do that too close to when I took a bite? - Yeah, but I didn't touch your lips. - You, but you got close. - No, our hair may have kissed, but I literally never touched. - No, that was a little guy. - Our hair? - Our hair? - Our hair may be gay. - That's a little, your hair is gay. - No. - Your hair is gay now. - No, that's a little guy. - Bro, your hair is gay now. - I'm gonna me to you for that. That was a little guy. You can have the rest. You can have the spoon if you want. - You don't wanna share it no more? - You don't like sharing? Sharing is caring. - It's all right. - Oh shit. - Is there? (laughing) - That was some good ice cream. - That was pretty good until you did that thing, but it was still good. I still enjoyed my bite. - Did you like sharing food with me? - What do you mean? - Did you like, did you enjoy that? - No, not really. I enjoyed the ice cream. - But you didn't enjoy sharing it with me. - Listen, I would have given you a bite. You were sharing with me, it was your ice cream. - Oh, you were right. - Which told me I could have only a spoonful. - Yeah, that's crazy. Where'd you find that big spoon at? That's just what I knew that you were gonna tell me only a spoonful, so I had to be prepared. - Damn you good. When was the last time you peed on a sleeping homeless? - Oh, yeah, I don't do that. - I know, sometimes it's kinda just like, maybe I don't get intoxicated, I do it for fun, but I know most people that they do it when they're intoxicated. - You pee on homeless people? If they're sleeping, you don't want them to get riled up. - Oh my God, 'cause I don't really have anything to lose. - You know that money you gave me? You should give it to the homeless one day. (laughs) - Oh, he don't like that. Your manager don't like you giving away money. - No, I don't think so. I mean, I don't have any money to give them. I got to ask him to borrow that money to give to you. I said I'd pay him back. - Oh, so technically you did pay him back. - I guess, but he's not gonna count that, 'cause you gave it to him. I still owe him money now. - Yeah, look. That's not contributing to what I owe you. - Oh shit, damn. Your manager really know how to treat you. - Is it abusive? Is it abusive relationship between y'all? - He said it's okay. - Oh, okay. - So it's okay. - Well, you're the one that decides that. - No, it's good. - Yeah. - Oh, shit.

Browder back to Cali with LeBron, KSI and Dead Yachting Strong. Logan warned me not to let them use me. Tyler Perry put me in his movies. Who's it? Is that Fusy? That's Fusy, yeah. Hey, the greatest rapper of all time. Following up on that, what's wrong with everybody today? Why can't they be more normal like Fusy? Yeah. Everybody got these issues. They're always bouncing off the walls. One day they're normal, one day they're in. Crash out. Yeah, yeah, it's like when can we just be like Fusy? How funny would that world be? Yeah, well Fusy, Fusy regular now. Have you seen him now? Have you seen his transformation? Have you had Fusy on the podcast? I've tried, I've tried to get him on here. He has, what do you say? I haven't been able to reach him in like a year or two, but I have a long history with Fusy. Okay. Before I was well known, I used to find where he was out and then give him pieces of paper and ask him to sign it. He's told this story before. Really? This was like, yeah, six years ago maybe. I mean, and then I found him again once I'd become famous and then I gave him the pictures again. Yeah. But even just like, yeah, I've tried to get him on the show. And what he say, I could never get a hold of him. I think that maybe I hit him up at the wrong time. Should I face him and now see if he. I would love to have him on. Maybe I think he'll know me. Let's see. I'm a big fan. I have all the lyrics. Yeah. He talked up in my head. You know, oh, he might not pick up. But Disney. Didn't he die? Weren't you at his funeral? Well, that was, that was like. Might have been pretty emotional. That was a, that was a fake thing. Well, that wasn't real? No, that was just a publicity stunt for his music. That's not something funny to fake. Well, yeah, it was a publicity stunt. But that was during the crash hour era. Let's see if you pick up. He might have to call me back. I think he's too famous for you. He is really. You see, he's shredded now, right? He's the biggest rapper in the world. He's album one number one. It is. And he's in head, I guess. Which is all that matters for how he's gonna act, right? Yeah. As long as whatever he thinks he's happening. It's happening. Right. No, he'll, he'll call me back at some point. He'll call you back. Yeah. When he has time for you. Yeah. Damn. Yeah. Is he calling you back? Yeah, this is him. Hey, boozy. I mean, I'm in the car. I'm driving. Oh, say hi to his podcast. How's he going, boozy? What up? [laughs] And you didn't see this episode. [laughs] Oh. I see the tree in you. Bro, it's, it's fucking weird. Look, they got this guy right here. They got his manager right here who don't say shit and took all my money. They robbed me. [laughs] You don't do that. If that wasn't scary, I'd do that one time, I got freaked out. They had this scary I'd do it. I'm talking about here. That's him right here. [laughs] All right. I call you later. All right. So he really is normal right now. He's having a good day. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, he's normal. So he really is normal right now, he's having a good day. Yeah. Yeah. Well, he's, he don't crash out no more. Yeah. It's done with. It's done with. But maybe if he come here, you can get him to crash out. I don't want to be responsible for that because I feel like it's like it levels up each time. I don't, I don't know if he can survive the next one. I really hope it doesn't happen. Oh. You don't think he can survive? I think, I think the last one was real, real crazy about when he got arrested, when he tried, when he was threatening to take his life and he was like stuck in Australia, I think. And then he pretended to kill himself and you were in on that. No, that was your participating in a, a man who's gone crazy. You're making it back. Yeah. I don't think he pretended to kill himself. I think he was, it was. How do funeral? Yeah, but it was like a representation of like he was reborn because if you watch the video, he came out, he came out the casket. Yeah. That, that was, that was symbolic. Oh, shit. What is that? You're, you're smoke detector. I don't hear anything. There's no way you hear something. Yeah. Let me find out you a little black. It only took you like 20 minutes. Did, have you been playing this the whole time? No, I don't know. It only took you a little while. Oh, sit. All right. A perfect moment of silence. Yeah. Um, but yeah, so that, that foosie thing was, he was just, he was just reborn. That's all. Yeah. - Yeah, he barked your foosie. - Yeah, now he barked the foosie. - He wasn't really rude. - You said, you said. - Yeah.
Use a few stuff. Yeah, you know foodie is just use have backwards. Oh, sit. You didn't know that of course I did Oh, okay, I thought I was giving you some cool lore here about no no, but if you know any fun facts about people I'll be willing to listen. Do you think racism would be less significant in the modern world if it wasn't for your vine videos? Yeah, yeah, you think so. No, no, no So we're let's say the racism was at this level before yeah Where do you think you moved to like a little off a little down? Stay right the same. Hmm. I think I think I probably I think it probably like Lessened it because if you think about it Because I I achieved so much success I Think it put black people in the good light like You don't like that because if you think about it. He's laughing at you. I think if you think about it As far as influencers go I've I've done a lot of movies So anybody that has a dream of doing like acting or a dream of trying to make it be in a tire of Perry movie I I was never in the Tyler Perry movie really yeah, that was that was foosie foosie was in Italian. No, no I know I've oh, yeah, if they want to be in a Tyler Perry movie, but I think what I try to represent is if you have a dream You can achieve it if you put your mind to it so like this fight the racism No, yeah, I agree so like in terms of like helping and inspiring people you moved it up and then racism you still moved it down though I don't I don't have anything to do with racism. I think racism is a is a generational thing That is coming from the inside. We loved your shit. I'm trying right. Well, thank you And did you did you what it what how did you feel about black people after watching my videos? Pumping you wanted to So as I felt before I didn't say kill any body did I say that I didn't even say words right right? I said pung ping pung. What does that mean you wanted to fight black people? No, I didn't say that I said pung ping pung. Okay. What did you how do you feel about black people after watching my vines? What is that what is that how do you feel about black people after watching my vines? I didn't say anything about hurting. I was just making a motion right okay, which was the joining ones That's when it made you know one was good. Oh, thank you like when I saw the one where like you stole the woman's purse and The iPhone's you remember that one the woman's purse and the iPhone they're taking the the pictures and then you steal their phones It's the fake Wi-Fi Maybe maybe like once you did that like that kind of inspired me. I started rolling around with a gun. Oh Because you thought black people's just gonna come around and start robbing you. Yeah. Oh, yeah, well Yeah, the it's called make believe like you know when you watch a movie and like they Write your videos. They're like make believe but they're historically accurate. I would say oh like family guy Family die. Yeah, the cartoon the Simpsons Well, those are kind of basing off maybe some stuff, but I think family guys are a little more fictional Mm-hmm, but like Simpsons like they say like it like they'll do an episode and then 10 years later that thing will come true Yeah, I think I don't know I have never really watched full episodes, but it's probably just because they've done a lot of episodes, right? Yeah, they done a lot, you know Everybody says like oh the big one they predicted is Trump being the president Mm-hmm, but it's like that just seems so obvious to me had I been around when that episode was made and I knew who Trump was He's so clearly one of the greatest people to ever exist in the universe that it would have been so obvious to me that He's the greatest person. I think he's the greatest person alive today and if the last 500 Generations wait, how come he didn't laugh at that because we're I'm telling the truth. Oh, sit. Okay. How you feel about Obama? You know what he did let me tell you something Right now this is America before Obama This is America after Obama and then after Trump. It's right back at the same level. Wow Now imagine if we instead of Obama's two terms it was Trump and he had five by now America would just be And such an unbelievable level Now Trump runs for a fourth term. Are you gonna vote for him? Well, I'm Canadian, so oh, so you can't vote. I can't Well, you could vote if you get like a what a license or whatever it is. Yeah, it drivers license Well, if I get a citizenship, I can vote, but you don't have that. I do not You're gonna try and get me deported. Well, I mean You're probably not here illegally. You've been here for long enough. What do you have like a just uh? What do you have to stay here? I got a visa work visa. Oh Really? You're not gonna try to marry like a who or something for 10 grand and then give her a Wow, why would those are the people you pay to do that? Well, I could find I could fall in love Okay, but that might take too long. Why would that take too long? I Mean how old are you now? I'm old over 30. Yeah, I'm pushing 50 Okay, that's what I'm saying. I mean you're over 30 and you haven't fell in love You could have got a $10 years ago for 10 grand and but I think I'm doing okay. I'm comfortable here Well, I'm just saying you could give you my vote. How about that? Oh, no for Trump. No, okay now We're a Trump place here. This is a Trump city. That's what that's why he in all red Y'all he's a Republican. Okay Would you spare money for an organization that helps turn retarded people into fertilizer? What What Don't you get these questions from it's a fertilizer? Yo, that's crazy. That's crazy. That's a crazy question. I've heard in my life and my entire life. I heard That's crazy into a fertilizer You know fertile that's like cow manure, but then at least there's some use for them, right? Right now. It's a negative use. We have to help them. Nah. What do you mean? Nah? It's okay We still like animals like let's say dogs for example. Their uses is zero They're not helping or using each other most of the time. They're just living their own lives with humans We have conscious levels of thinking are retarded person is like a dog But they're in a society of people who have conscious thinking you never go to what this what the mentally disabled is different levels like Retarded I said what what defines that? Oh, oh shit. You did a you went full You asked me a question. I'm representing it to you. I don't know how to Well, I think it shows like you know Empathy and and and and that's why they're still around because we have empathy as humans because we're smart 500 years ago when we were a little less smart and we didn't have empathy. They would they would turn them into fertilizer Well, they didn't have that sort of technology They would roll them on a stick and then put them over a fire and then feed them to the like the wolves Or just eat them.

I'm telling you. No, Bradley would never say that. Why is there an issue with him saying that? Yeah, there's a big issue with him saying that. Why is that? It's not it's not a it's not a it's not a good thing to say. He's in that a happy word though No, it's not a happy word. What when I see black people saying they say it in the smiling they go what's up? And then they say it Yeah, so it's a happy word it makes them happy. It's that's between us That sounds racist that doesn't want I can't be part of it. No, you can't be part of that sounds racist. You wait you ain't gone through what we went through I just paid you back for it. Now we're even five dollars and 75 cents back then it was a ton of money Yeah, back then, but what we hear now well Give me a break just I'm giving you see That doesn't seem like the way to use it. That seems like you replace shit with shit It seems like you don't do that. It seems like it's a whole different meaning. Yeah, you could say see that's a thing I'll tell you another thing about black culture. You could say one phrase and don't have ten different meanings Yeah, because they only know they have a limited amount of words. No, that's not it. They only have so many words No, that's not it. No, because they only know like 40 words. Who said that Yeah, like who said that What up with that like I'm saying like you know what I mean. No, I don't know what you mean To simplify like that they did it like with one less letter instead of THAT. It's DAT To make it easier. Who no, that's not a thing Yeah, it is it's called slang Yeah, because it makes it easier because they didn't go to school. Our slang is just not see you got you got it off She see see that's the way you see it is different ways. Yeah. Yeah, you can say it's you can say like What's up, you know, like what's up or you can say what's up or you'd be like What's up, it could be like what's up, you know what I mean? Like the different ways to say one word I didn't get it. I just got to seem like the same thing to me though. No, when I was saying hi when I was saying fuck you When I was saying hey, what's up? You trying to you know what I'm saying and then another while saying like What's up? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, what's I mean? Yeah, you know what I'm saying like when our hair is touched You are doing gate. You were saying a gaiting. No, I'm just saying like you were hitting on a dude that's not here No, I hope you weren't hitting on me or mr. Floor. No, it's whatever you're into I don't know. I really don't get it. This is too complicated for me. Yeah, there's just different ways to say things. You know what I mean Like you say what's up? Like we trying to fight like what's up? Let me hear you say it What's up? See, I know the actual word. Okay, that's what's up. Okay, try w a s s u p try that one What's up? There you go now. That's that's one way.

Maybe do something with your eyebrows like what's up? What's up? Yeah, but like do a little reflection. What's up? This is the same thing. You're doing the same exact thing. No, but you got to switch it up Like maybe go up a little what's I think a better way to express if I'm upset is saying hey, I'm upset. I'm gonna fuck you up Well, yeah, but you're going what's up or like a version? Yeah, but you could but why don't you why don't you condense that you can Condense larger than yours.

You tell him to sit and then he sits. - You said that would be funny? - That would be awesome. I mean, that would be hilarious. You go roll over and he starts rolling around on the floor. - Wow, would that be an amazing party trick? - You gonna take them to a party and do that? You would be by far the coolest guy ever.
