Why Do IRL Streamers Keep Getting Arrested? | Unsubscribe Podcast Ep 242
2h 18m 58s
The transcript blends two main narratives: one about car insurance accessibility through Progressive’s Name Your Price tool, which empowers users to find affordable, personalized coverage without stress or confusion; and another about the escalating legal and social consequences of online streamers’ reckless behavior, particularly Vitaly’s live-streamed thefts in the Philippines. Vitaly’s case illustrates how livestreaming illegal acts can lead to serious criminal charges, with the Philippines enforcing harsh penalties for auto theft and using online content as evidence. The speaker reflects on how their own video coverage of Vitaly’s actions was mistakenly cited in official reports, highlighting the real-world impact of internet content. The discussion also expands into broader societal issues, such as AI-generated content becoming indistinguishable from reality, raising fears about misinformation, deep fakes, and legal accountability. Wearable technology and bodycams are noted as increasing surveillance and content volume, potentially flooding public discourse with unverified or illegal interactions. The narrative concludes with a warning about the dangers of unchecked digital freedom—where seemingly harmless online behavior can spiral into serious legal and ethical consequences, both in foreign countries and in digital spaces. The tone is critical, emphasizing how technology and social media platforms can amplify risk, making the line between entertainment and crime dangerously thin.

Thank you for watching.
Have a great day.
Have a great day.
He's been stuck in South Korea for a year now.
They're actually getting, who was the other streamer in one of the Asian countries that's actually in jail?
That's Vitaly is in jail in the Philippines right now.
He's not looking too good when those updates come out of his photos.
I'm like, yeah, he fucked around and found out.
Also, you can tell he doesn't have TRT anymore because he is shrinking rapidly.
Yeah, his entire freedom is hinging on if they charge him for stealing that bike, which he live streamed himself doing.
And in the Philippines, if you steal any automobile, it's a 20-year prison sentence.
Oh, shit.
And he live streamed himself stealing a motorcycle.
So they haven't charged him with it yet, but it's there.
This is Vitaly?
Yeah, this is Vitaly.
Oh, God.
So this is a completely separate case.
Yeah, the evidence is kind of there.
That's the problem.
It just depends on if they charge him with the thing that he did.
Correct.
His freedom is hinging on that.
Is there a polymarket bet on this yet?
There probably is, honestly.
Honestly, there might be.
I mean, did he steal or do something against the police, too, on live stream?
Well, yeah, he stole their hats.
He ran off with their hats.
He stole an industrial fan.
He told a woman that he was going to rob her on his live stream.
He also stole a red light mask.
He did end up returning it after running around with it for about 10 minutes.
Yeah.
I kind of miss when he just staged videos of beating up people.
Interesting.
Those peaks just staged beat up videos.
Were all of those staged?
I don't know, to be honest.
Because I have a feeling that some were real and some were fake.
But I'm not fully sure.
Some of them were so ridiculous, you're like, "This has to be staged."
And he would just have this habit of going out and catching five a night or something like that.
It's like, "Yeah, well, I don't know about that."
But at the same time.
The one that I thought had to have been fake was the flashbang one, where he flashbanged a guy multiple times.
Because I'm like, "How is he not getting a criminal record from flashbanging a random dude?"
Even though he's an alleged PDF, you can't just be flashbanging people in public without getting a charge.
If it's a real flashbang, those are also illegal to possess.
That's a destructive device.
Oh, interesting.
It's a real live, like, grenade fuse.
So, like, that's a ten-year infraction per flashbang.
And he did it in California.
Oh, my God.
So that's why I'm like, "Okay, wait, is it real or is it fake?"
So that's why I was thinking it was fake.
But also, it's live streamed, and I'm like, "How much room is there to fake that?"
I don't know.
I can never wrap my head around the mindset of I'm making, "Oh, man, this month I'm gonna make 80."
I don't know how much they make, but let's say it's, like, 100 grand this month, but all the risk for 80 to 100 grand does not seem worth it.
I'm guessing that's a really good month for them, too, but all the risk of X, Y, and Z, especially if I'm going overseas to Japan and causing a menace.
Are we talking about Johnny here?
Dude, Johnny was never close to 80 grand.
Yeah, I don't think they're—
Never, never, dude.
What's the other one you just said?
Vitaly.
Vitaly was above there.
I would—because he had to deal with steak, so, like, you can assume that he was actually making six figures a month.
So Vitaly, it's kind of like, "Okay, why would you take that much risk?"
I agree with that.
Johnny doesn't have anything.
So I think Johnny's best month ever, my guess, and this is just a guess, is probably 10K, which is insane.
That's really good.
That's a lot of you are at 90% for that, yeah.
Because, like, his entire setup is like, "Hey, I'm gonna put myself in
really bad situations, and you guys can put me in worse situations if you donate something really offensive on text-to-speech."
And that's his whole setup.
I mean, 10K a month is not that much money when the job itself is to travel the planet and essentially edge the gayest episode of Locked Up Abroad.
Right.
Not great.
No.
I want the world to hate me.
How much does that cost you?
10 grand a month.
F*** off.
Fuck off.
That's good.
It's about being repeatedly incarcerated in foreign countries.
And beat up.
Well, yeah, well.
And then that's, like, Cody, your story on the individual, what was it, he was a Korean Special Forces?
It was Dal Goon, right, that you ended up.
Yeah, he's a Navy guy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And now I saw that he tracked down Somali while he was out, so he just got released from the police station, I think?
Mm-hmm.
And so the dude tracks him down and just goes up and f***ing pops him in the nose, and it was. It was hilarious.
Can we play that clip real quick?
What do you got?
Oh.
I've met a lot of those guys as well, and they're super funny, because they have, like, an entire, like, group chat of tracking down where he is at all times.
So, like, they. You interviewed one.
Huh?
You interviewed one, didn't you?
Oh, yeah, yeah, I interviewed one.
one of them um but there's a whole network of those guys who are just essentially using a yeah
they're just tracking him down they know at all times where he is essentially i'm getting random
texts um of like oh that's him walking around the street like i got one not too long ago you just
you're playing geoguessr for where to beat up an asshole yeah no i'll show proof real quick
because i got a yeah no literally i got a video from one of them and they're just oh yeah look
we found i didn't know he was out oh he is out yeah he's not in jail right now he's doing the
hearings uh you explained it so cody when he got arrested in korea the first the individual that
beat up johnny you get the navy guy you helped post his bell uh i paid some of his legal fees
yeah he needed i think he needed 8 000 and he was able to raise 3 000 so i threw the last 5 000 on
there to help him out because i just i have no patience for assholes and like he did the world
in that dude in the face so i was totally down to help him out with that last bit of his his legal
fees i love it thank you for your service two degrees of separation i forgot about that completely
and the other guy didn't get caught or caught yet the other guy who punched him in the face
okay i didn't know that's the guy i interviewed gotcha you never said thank you and you'll ever
have to
yeah the guy you interviewed
that story it was it was as you said it was like a group text and then they're just like
oh he's here or here and then they all just converged yeah brother that's wild in a country
to be able to do that well just go like go to a country and they're hosting you and then you just
you're mean to everyone around you i'm glad he got his ass kicked several times he had it coming
and again repeatedly committing crimes in countries in which he does not live yeah
and thinking it's going to be like oh it will be fine we don't have to worry about this because
right now how many years can he serve up to i think his so there was a lot of like uh i did
that as well where we thought all of his crimes could stack um but apparently north korea not
north korea south korea on there that would be a fun one exactly but south korea has a max of 12
years for everything that he's done so he would have to go outside of those parameters to get more
than that gotcha um because his biggest charges are currently the deep fake charges that he's
facing so essentially people on his discord um they used ai to essentially have him make out
with people so yeah and then he showed himself on his stream making out with for example dalgon who
punched him in the face and then there was another female streamer
in south korea and so by doing that he's distributing it so that's why he has to do that
he has those charges and that charge faces i think it's it's either eight or ten years max
um jesus and we thought they stacked on top of each other but the max then with even with the
stacking is 12 years gotcha that's the weirdest rule 34 i've ever heard of some kind of johnny
somali rule 34 is oh yeah no it's it's super interesting and then other than that it's kind
of like he has a bunch of misdemeanors um so it's just like business disruptions um they're called
minor crimes acts there which we thought was like oh what was he like interacting with minors or
something like that no that's just what they call it misdemeanor um and then there was also the he
has a he hasn't been charged formally yet but they're investigating him for north korea
propaganda because he's again live streamed himself playing kim jong-un and everything
on the metro so that's not that good for him either and the problem with all these irl streamers
is they've already filmed and like essentially broadcast themselves committing the crimes it's
really just up to the prosecutors to be like all right we'll charge him for that we'll charge him
for that we'll skip that but we'll charge him for that so essentially they have like days on days of
footage to go through in johnny's case i think there's like 90 streams or something like that
that's like a sentence in itself for the prosecutor to have to watch this shit it's
it's
so much um so yeah that's currently where they're at with the with the the tally it's a little bit
more simple because he didn't do that many streams before they actually got him so the the thing we
were talking about earlier that really cracked me up was the the south korean government
wanting to stick it to us over that raid right oh i didn't know about this
this is hilarious cody this is fucking wild so yeah okay so now
apparently um and i didn't even know about this until um my i guess legal connection out in south
korea was saying like yo you you know south carolina that thing happened to the south koreans
and i was like wait i i didn't what happened apparently there was like an ice raid on i think
it was a hyundai uh facility and they ended up arresting and perp walking a bunch of south
koreans who were working there um on the plant i don't know the details of it anything but
because they did the whole thing of perp walking them and everything that really
upset the south korean government and now um my legal contact is saying there's a very high
probability they might go harsher on americans in south korea who have committed crimes there
because of that so now johnny has accidentally fumbled himself into an actual tobacco
amazing because the the immediate thing that came to my head was the pirates of the caribbean bit
where it's like back down and we'll shoot your man shoot him he's not our man
like we get ice raids and johnny somali gets fucked over even harder like stack it dub after
dub i'm here for it it's fucking wild i will never wrap my head around it god did you know

And apparently that's how Lee is stuck as well obviously because he's half Russian half American and the Americans nor the Russians want him
Yeah, so now he's just kind of there as well. And he actually born in Russia
I don't I don't know where he's born, but I know he is Russian American
So gotcha and Philippines do not write Philippines. It's the Philippines. Yeah. Yeah, they don't fuck her like Philippines
Especially I don't know if it's still the president but during Pacquiao's reign of fighting
Philippines did
The president they got in office is the one that's like hey if you do drugs we're gonna kill you
Yeah, you were execute if you were dealing drugs you were executed. No, I did not know that
Oh, dude 2010 ish is when they got that president and that president cracked down on drug
Like crimes, maybe he they were like, oh might have corruption with him
But he got rid of a lot of drug problems because it was oh, hey
I have kill squads and they are allowed to do this you are allowed to actually that was it
You are allowed to go kill drug dealers. I forgot that. Did you know that it's like the letters of mark but for
Drug dealers you could literally go kill your local drug dealer. Yep without let me double-check that that brings new meeting to like the JD
Delay JD delay shirts and whatnot kill your local
Oh
You could just?
Do that shit president and Kurt yet more than 7,000 killed in the Philippines in six months as president encouraged murder
He was saying yeah, dude, the president was like yeah, if they're drug dealers and everything kill them. No repercussions
Cool yeah
2017 sorry, please. Oh, wow, please are killing with impurity and putin tea
But then you had civilians also vigilante groups also followed through with these orders. I hope they were I hope they were
specific like and there's dudes just rolling up wanting to like act like the purge murk and their local pharmacist
Dude, that's what it was. That dude went hard on that. That's why he got closer. Welcome to CBS. How can I help you?
Know what you gave my grandmother Tylenol boom my son has autism
And speaking of accidentally becoming political pawns of Italy also is in a similar case because
My understanding is that the current government of the Philippines did some stuff that a lot of the people looked at was not pro the people
Now the people are very upset about the tally. So now they're heavily incentivized to really stick it to
Vitaly to show, hey, we're doing something for the people. So that's another thing going on.
So that's, yeah, my legal connection in the Philippines was the one who told me that.
So that's interesting. And there was also a lot of fake information saying that Vitaly was going
to be released now, but we don't know the sources of that. And everyone I've checked with in the
Philippines said this is not the case at all. He's still going to go to trial eventually when they
finally get to him because there's a backlog of about a year to two.
For everyone, pick up some Coca-Cola at a store near you.
So, yeah, that's fun, which is what you don't go to foreign countries and fuck around like
it doesn't make sense. That's just what I want Johnny Somali to be sentenced to is I just want
to see him. He's got to stream it. Yeah. And they just trebuchet him into North Korea and just see
what happens. Oh, yeah. Wow.
No, he's he's not in a calorie surplus in that activity. That's for sure.
That is a motherfucker who has run out of creatine and everything else that's injectable.
Oh, that was. Wait, was that in two months?
It'd be like that could be. Yeah, I think it's even according to this, like two months.
Damn, dude. They popped off the stem of like the tire deflates.
The worst part of the or the the thing that was like me accidentally doing something that
triggered something way bigger than what I expected was making a video on Vitaly being
stupid in the Philippines because in the official arrest report posted on Facebook by the police
there, they cited my video for how they found out it happened. No shit. And I went off because
when it happened, right, I just cover anything that's laughably stupid on the Internet. And I
just see this.
This guy stole a motorcycle while live streaming it. So obviously I'm like, oh, this is not going
to end well. So I just make a video on it, covering it and laughing at it because like,
how stupid can you possibly be to do this? Yeah, I didn't realize that was going to be used to arrest
him because that then went viral within the Philippines. Shit. And that was an accidental
thing because when things happen, a bunch of people just spam me like, look at the stream.
Look, look what's going on. I'm like, oh, OK, we'll see. And then I'm like, oh, that's bad.
Hell yeah. But yeah.
Thank you for your service as well.
Accidental.
Just like you're killing retard streamers one by one.
Have you ever been used as evidence in a trial before? Like any of your video breakdowns or
anything? I know they use them a lot in like police training.
Yeah. A lot of police academies play my videos. I don't know if I've ever been used in a trial
before, though.
It's happened to me twice.
Had them try. I've had a couple places try to bring me on as an expert witness for things.
Yeah.
And always defer that to angry cops because he's been a cop for much longer than I was. And he's
still he's still a police officer for sure. So that's happened a couple of times. And I just
thought, yeah, I always defer that to him on this.
For me, it was the it was the Alec Baldwin killing.
Oh, well, that was hilarious.
Interesting.
Yeah. The the attorney reached out a video on that, right?
Or I made a couple of basically breaking down like why his version of events make no sense.
And like the attorney reached out, it's like, hey, can I use this?
And the other one was actually I found this out the other day because a friend sent it to me.
It was in one of the SIG P320 lawsuits.
Oh, wow.
I forgot about that.
I can't remember the quote.
That they had for my video.
But I think it was I don't want to misspeak, but I think it was verbatim
accusing SIG of, quote, Olympic level corporate gaslighting.
It's what I think the quote was.
That is amazing.
I mean, they really did.
SIG was they did everything in their power to fuck up their social media presence
and then double down on it where you're like, oh, man, that one.
Why would you tweet?
Was it the 320?
What was the one?
Tweet that really ends today that that whole like there's no problem.
There's never been a problem.
Meanwhile, they are going off left and right.
There's video footage of them just being jostled and holsters.
I, for one, thought they were gay before they started killing people.
But, you know, afterward, it's like, look, we can have differences of opinion on the SIG thing.
Like, there's plenty of SIG products that are, you know, like the P365 and stuff like that.
P635 pointed at my right nut for like three years now.
Yeah.
There's certain stuff that's it's been fine.
The problem.
The problem is when, like, you have entire agencies that are cutting your product because
they have record numbers of negligent or excuse me, accidental discharges where the guns are
just going off, you know, from a light breeze or getting jostled or whatever.
It's like the cops.
There's a lot of cops bending over and put a little bit of pressure on them.
And they're just going off in their holsters.
And then, you know, captured firearms going off is like, that's that's crazy.
And then fast forward a month after they tweet that, maybe less than a month in the Air Force
or Navy guy, the airman.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The airman put his 320 on the table during training and it goes off and kills him.
All fairness to SIG.
There is some doubt about that one now.
Oh, they said there's potential that one of the people involved lied in their their testimony
or something like that.
So, like, there's some wiggle room.
They're still not really sure what the fuck happened, but you just have records like from
ICE, you know, like when they released their records of it, they had a detailed breakdown
of all the the accidental.
Discharge that happened and whether or not they included an injury or death.
Yeah.
You had like police officers that, you know, that woman had her femur destroyed and all
sorts of stuff.
It's like, look, you can tell me that the issue is overblown and that people are over
exaggerating and it's like only an issue with one out of a thousand.
That's an argument you can make, right?
That's fair.
But don't tell me there's no problem when you tell me that there's no problem and that
people are making it up for clicks.
Oh, fuck you.
Now I'm going nuclear, especially all the video.
Evidence of, as you said, Cody, it's like police just sitting there and goes to like
holster or it's holster and moves and it fires.
And then they're like, what the people at the range?
One of the instructors yelling is like a gun goes off.
Structure looks.
He's like, is that a fucking three 20?
And the guy's like, yeah.
And he goes, grabs.
He's like, get that off.
I think that was Ben Stoger.
It just going off.
Wow.
Yeah.
Terrifying gun.
Terrifying.
Well, now I won't buy a cig.
Yeah.
Just a three 20.
Because I noted guns don't kill people.
Yeah.
Well, hold my beer.
Damn.
The gun grabbers got us on this one.
You're embarrassing me in front of the wizards.
That's wild.
Now with, I think Cody will appreciate this.
A lot of people will.
You started YouTube at what age?
Oh, wait, uh, nine on another account probably.
And then I started consistently uploading.
At 13 on my current account.
Cody last night, this fucking psychos.
Like I'm trying to get to two posts a day.
As long as quality.
And I love that you, you want quality first.
Yeah.
But it is like two videos a day.
We look at that.
Like, huh?
What?
Well, if there's enough to talk about, that's cool.
Because my current problem right now is I'm just like, I'm not covering everything.
And everything that I want to cover and that I think are like super interesting stories.
I just can't.
can't get around to them all.
You get pretty fucking good views for
as much as you upload, too. What's your average length
that you like to get to?
Well, I don't try to get to a length. I just cover
the story as is, and then if there's more, it's
more, if not, not. 16 minutes, 17,
13, 22 minutes.
Those are like not just talking. You're putting in information
with graphs. Yeah, yeah.
Eight minutes, two seconds.
I see you.
We know those two ads.
We know those two ad spots.
Let's get to the mid-roll.
Oh, that's the. Game recognizes game.
When I tell my editors, I'm like,
the cutoff is 7.30.
If the video is below 7.30,
we'll just throw it out there.
If it's right above, or right
between the 7.30 to 8 mark,
how can we extend it
just like 30 seconds? That'll be
a lot better. Just dance for 30 seconds
at the end. No one's going to say,
just floss.
Just 30 seconds
of flossing.
Huh, huh.
But it is wild to do
two a day, even one a day, as much as you're
posting. Yeah. We all have our different
cadences, depending. Like, you have
two a week to one a week, right? I typically
do about one a week now, yeah. I used to do two,
but man, like, I feel like I could just do better
quality content. Plus, I have, you know, a couple
things going on right now. It makes
it a little difficult, but yeah, I used
to do two, but I feel like I could do better
content if
I just cut it down to one.
But I'm not also, like, covering news.
Yeah.
It's harder for, I mean, I am occasionally when it
comes up, like, especially in the firearm space and stuff like
that, or, like, gun bills and stuff
like that, but
yeah, what I do is just, like, you know, gun shit
or whatever. Like, that 120-year-old
machine gun's going to be there
two weeks from now, a month from now. Correct.
There's no urgency for it. Yeah.
And then, Cody, you
do, how many videos are you doing right
now a month, week? Well, your
live streams, you're cutting those out. Oh, yeah.
You're kicking those up, like, daily. That's just easy money
right there. Yeah. Because main channel, that's the one
that I focus on scripts and information
because that's kind of important when you've got a cop
shooting and killing a person. So I try
to do two a week, main channel.
On the Clips channel, I do five a day.
Five a day?
Yeah.
Because, I mean, I'll get on Donut Operator TV.
It slowed down a little bit the past week because we've been traveling so much.
But I've been doing five a day, four to five a day.
And it's making almost as much as main channel.
Well, it's popping off.
You're getting like a few hundred thousand per upload.
I love you.
You hated it because you're trying to get Cody once away from police content.
He's like, I can do this.
And then live streaming.
And then you started live streaming police content because the viewers were like completely like, yeah.
It was like, God damn it, dude.
It was ridiculous when I first.
Where can you live stream police content?
So I can't do shootings.
That's the only thing I can't do.
Okay, so you kind of have to like or have someone pre-check.
Make sure there's not something insane before you broadcast.
As long as there's no shootings, I'm fine.
Most of them have like a warning up front anyway, like graphic material, viewer discretion.
As long as it doesn't have that, I just assume it's okay.
I run it on a.
When I'm watching YouTube videos on my stream, I run it on a fresh account that doesn't have an age verification.
Right.
So it'll pop up and say, you need to be age verified to watch this.
And I know, okay, I won't stream this one.
We'll move on to another video.
Yeah.
So it's mostly just like drunk chicks being arrested at the airport or beach.
And I can sit there and talk about that all day long.
And it's.
Smile for the thumbnail.
Yeah, it's pretty.
It's pretty easy.
And I love air rager airport.
Yeah.
It's called air ragers.
Oh, I see.
Yeah.
No, there's a few.
They just airport.
Airport meltdowns and.
Yes.
Yeah.
Because occasionally there will be a body cam footage or a video that's like so laughably stupid.
I'm like, I kind of need to cover this on my channel as well.
So I do squeeze some some of those in there.
And they're also kind of what I look at as like evergreen content.
So like I kind of mix up like what's currently happening right now.
And then I also like pre film some evergreen stuff that I can kind of like on days I don't have a video.
I can post that.
Are you going to borrow my ghost bed pillow?
Does it smell like you?
Yes.
Do you feel that cooling technology?
It's definitely not a hot pillow.
I got to get out of here.
Give me my pillow.
I'm the one that has to sleep here.
You guys have your own houses and your own pillows.
Quit touching it.
All right.
Real question.

What was the one I just sent you on that?
I was like, dude, did you see this story?
I forget what that guy was doing.
Was that the guy who was like rapping Eminem on the plane?
Yes.
He was the one that was like, do you don't know who the fuck I am?
When we get down, my boys are going to roll up.
He's acting like this hard off ass and he is throwing a temper tantrum.
He is screaming.
He is trying to fight people.
All because he didn't have the charger to his phone.
And a lot of alcohol involved.
Like a lot.
A lot of alcohol, maybe something else.
You know, just dead ass sober.
When I saw that, I was looking for the Sora watermark.
I'm like, there's no way this is actually real.
But it seemed like that actually did happen.
Isn't that crazy?
We're getting to that time where like AI is getting so good.
Yeah.
You're looking for watermarks and shit.
Which, thank God.
Because thank God there's a watermark.
There's a watermark.
There's a watermark.
There's a watermark now that like people can look for.
Because before this shit was just one shotting boomers left and right.
Oh, yeah.
Still is probably.
I'm sure you can generate something on Sora and then run it through a different to remove
the watermark.
Zoom in a little bit.
Don't do that.
Yeah, don't do that.
But hey.
It's Sora.
We're getting into interesting times.
What is the rules with watermarks on Sora 2 or anything like that?
I think it just automatically does it.
Where at?
Like it's on the.
All over the place.
Okay.
So it kind of like moves around like the TikTok one.
Like when you rip a TikTok video, you see that watermark bouncing around.
I think it's.
Show Cody the TikTok AI you just showed us at lunch.
Cody, this is.
Oh, that's just the Sora?
Have you seen Sora 2?
Sora 2 just came out a couple of days ago.
This is indistinguishable.
If you have seen the body cam footage of it, it is.
Brother, it is.
I've seen him start popping up the last week or so.
And it is scary good.
I'm about to start making up so much shit.
You turn on my phone.
I turned it off earlier.
Get it.
Get it.
Paul, arrest.
Watch this, Sora.
The Jake Paul getting arrested one was hilarious because it was he was going into a fight.
He went into a old people home and was trying to find a fighter, like find somebody, his
next opponent.
He's like, come on.
I heard there's a retired boxer here.
I want to beat his ass.
And it's cops arresting him.
You would never know.
It's fake, though.
So here you have this app, which is, I guess, it's like the Sora.
TikTok and everything on this app is generated and people can just write a prompt and create content on this app.
But every everything here is generated.
I just saw the go up.
The one with Jesus is a cartoon.
I just saw that today.
I didn't know that flipping the tables.
Yeah, it's like some good animators and made that.
So I just loaded up.
I haven't gone through or made any algorithm yet.
So, like, I'm assuming this is just the popular videos that I'm being served right away on the for you page.
But no, it's interesting.
You have an entire app that's just AI generated content.
It's the hard part is because once they started and a lot of them are doing, it's like chromatic abrasion.
Let's add motion blur.
That's when you add in those problems, how VFX works.
I'm going to add layers on this to make it.
Yes, it's fake, but I'm going to add those fake layers that, like, mess it up.
Now it looks real because you're like, okay, shit, it's blurry.
It's oh, oh, shit.
Skynet unlocked ray tracing.
I don't like that.
Oh.
Oh, and it's very fast, too.
That's what's scary about it is how fast it can generate everything now.
Yeah, you're like, that's what I'm saying.
Like, it's a little horrifying.
I truly think that there's a like an AI renaissance that's about to happen with like gaming, specifically gaming or movies where it's like, you know, AI, whatever the UI that people use for that just pop up.
It's going to be like the new Gary's mod, but you just like pop in there like, hey, I want to play Red Dead Two, but every planet or area.
And I want the main character to be Ryan Gosling generate and you can just play that game like I think the thing that's going to save it is that everybody wants that shared experience.
Yeah, where it's like, you know, I want to be able to talk to you about the game that I played or something like that.
And like that's where you're going to have, in my opinion, at least the way it looks, is that's where you're going to start having like artists that are selling their own experience that they generated, where it's it's just it.
It basically just takes the barrier to entry from movie design or from, you know, movie making or game design or whatever, down to essentially zero.
So then it's just going to be whoever can generate the best thing or whatever.
I don't know. It's a weird frontier.
It's like totally new.
It's it's going from like special effects to VFX because that was special effects hated the idea of VFX replacing jobs, X, Y and Z.
But VFX took 40 years to get good, whereas like realistic.
Jurassic Park, Terminator two.
Those are the best in the 90s.
That was like pinnacle.
But then for 20 years, nothing really touched that level other than Pixar, Light or ILM, Dreamworks.
Yeah. Look at how fast that went from you went from Tron to Jurassic Park.
How quick. Yeah.
Like, that's crazy.
And then you now have, OK, hey, look at what we can do with just a prompt or it can write code or it can do all these things.
And now it's like, OK, this is just exponential.
It's essentially faster.
But as long as you learn how to do right or do the command prompts really refine it, now you can use it as a tool.
But it's still terrifying for a lot of people because like I don't have to like think you don't have to go film B-roll jets, anything you can just be like, oh, we used to have to throw Top Gun.
We'd have to throw a camera in a jet to fly or do 3D animation months of rendering, building assets.
Now I will do a quick prompt to get some B-roll of that exact same thing I need.
And then I'm good. Wow.
That's scary.
And how fast it's gone to from like like we were talking about the Will Smith eating spaghetti thing going from, you know, something that's just, oh, God, that's not right.
That looks fucking horrifying to now we have prompts that you could just put in.
Now it's photorealistic, basically indistinguishable from real life.
Like, man, that's we went there in like two years.
Mm hmm.
That's spooky.
I learned deep fake AI tech, like actual like.
learning, AI learning in 2019, like corridors
so sam and nico they were doing it they were like the forefront of that and then i nico and me were
he was teaching me so they were literally doing it better than disney yeah so he yes they were
yeah and i was the mandalorian and all that yeah oh yeah and then like nico and then like oh they
should have done it this way and you get to see how they would have done you're like oh yeah corridor
on top of it and i was learning that 2019 i just remember holy shit this is terrifying this is
absolutely terrifying when i was teaching the shots i needed i was like hey i need all these
scenes and i need to remember this face you give all the prompts you download a program that is not
very like user intuitive and you have to know what you're doing but the second you ran it through
a crowd scene it is then separating all the faces into piles like do you want this face this face
this face this face or this face and do you want to swap it with this face and you're like oh that's
scary as shit this just memorized everyone
everyone's face every frame of their face and then every iteration it's learning it's getting
smarter and better at it and now i can just flip people's faces how i want for i mean speech it's
the whole point of the movie fall guy if you remember that is that they just literally face
swapped an actor to cover up a murder oh yeah i forgot about that and it's like man i hate how
not far-fetched that is that is something that is completely doable with modern technology
it's going to be getting into the law and the rules that will come into effect in
the next six years because i think we're going to see a big problem especially with like everyone's
first reaction with jake paul is like let's do arrest videos or him stealing or yeah that's
terrifying yeah there's a lot and if i've ever done anything wrong it was deep faked same and
it's like a nightmare for like my content as well i just don't want to cover an ai video thinking
it's real oh yeah there's a lot of crazy stuff that i cover that i'm like that has to be i but
it's not but now we're in that uncanny valley that's fucking crazy
and it got there quick yeah it's bad it went from like oh who could fall for this to
i immediately scroll through comments like does anybody else think this is ai because i don't know
what i'm really well i'm like excited but i'm also dreading it um because you know a lot of
content hit the internet when we got the body cams on the police officers i think the next
one's going to be the wearables let cody tell you about a lot of content i think the wearable glass
is sleeping on his crazy sleeping on his bed of money thanks blm for making making all police
officers wear body camera only thing they ever did good like the ray-ban yeah so these cameras
are going to get smaller and smaller to the point where you can't notice them anymore and i don't
know if you guys are familiar with like shadow play when you play video games where you can like
something cool happens in a video game you can hit a button and it records the last five minutes oh
yeah that's gonna happen for wearables very soon so like dash cam body cam are it's recording all
the time
and when you turn it on it records the last like two to five minutes coca-cola for the big for the
small the short and the tall peacemakers risk takers for the optimists pessimists for long
distance love for introverts and extroverts the thinkers and the doers for old friends and new
coca-cola for everyone
pick up some coca-cola at a store near you oh wow okay yeah no i mean that's gonna happen to
wearables more and more people are going to be wearing wearables and then more crazy moments
are going to be caught it's the archer no babe the blinking red light means it's off yeah yeah i mean
right if cops catch the shit that they catch which understandably they're dealing with like
the worst rungs of society and all the crazy people yeah like you said imagine like all the
shit that's going to be flooding out there yeah just interactions between two people
it's going to be interesting it's going to be good for content at least though 100 but i'm
also worried right exactly i just hate it as he dabs with hundred dollar bills
all this content they're generating me yeah i just hate i can't tell what's real
so yours like i you cody have no shortage of anything because you're like ah retarded streamers
uh guess what's never going to happen
to stop that crime crime's not going away i am very surprised at how many more
johnny somali clones we have out in asia now because like it started kind of with him and
then now like i probably have somewhere between 15 to 25 that i'm like keeping very like vaguely
tabs on the fire rises yeah it's bad yeah no it's like 15 to 25 that
are like actively doing stuff i'm like this is this is going to be a video this is a video any
second now the amount of motherfuckers that would look at what is essentially a cautionary tale
and they're like oh he got a lot of attention i want to do that and that's unfortunately he got
a lot of attention he just didn't get any fucking money like didn't he get banned from like i think
kick kicked him off and whatnot well yeah and if you get banned on kick there's there's something
really wrong then that's when you look in a mirror that's yeah that's like that's the platform that
you shouldn't read
really get banned from well because i think that they were they were realizing like you know he was
just a bad look for the platform like kick was getting a reputation which says a lot as well
yeah like that's like they have a lot of people on that platform that would definitely not exist
on youtube or twitch but uh yeah they had to get rid of him but it was like he did like three
things and i know because they kind of have a vague three strike system um and that's what
kind of got him off but it was his antics in israel that got him
knocked off he is just the best of people just so what what did he do in israel he um
i don't think he went to the whaling wall with a picture of aiden ross the ceo of kick and harvey
weinstein and uh shove them into the wall while doing some sort of like ritual and live stream
himself doing that um oh wow the cops so or the military the that happens oh yeah because he
harassed some chick right like so one of the uh idf uh females or something yeah that happened as
well but that was like i don't think that was a reason for him to get banned but he was like
yeah no he was just harassing he was like you're a bad bitch i could change your life baby girl
like that was quote what he was saying yep um and then he got he got carried but only detained he
didn't get arrested for that but i don't think that would be a reason for kick to actually ban
you um no it's just it seems like the death by a million pin pricks though
it's like oh every time this guy turns on a camera he's a fucking asshole and breaking laws
in other countries again it's that other country which is a wild idea what so many people don't
understand or like what's shocking is like the fact that they don't understand they lose all
their american rights when they leave our borders yep so like them screaming i'm america does not
help you at all in south korea in some countries it makes it far worse exactly yeah you like a
mouthful of hardwood yes go on then boy do i have a product for you i'm re-enlisting in the navy no

they're really lenient on everything that's great they'll ship you straight back to the states uh
your teeth will fall out and you die north north korea doesn't fuck around the one dude that stole
a poster yeah literally just for stealing and then he died in it was like three months six months
work camp
he was sent to yeah and they worked him to death yeah awful he had uh what brain swelling he was
in a coma when he got delivered back yeah he was sick that's all i said like we didn't do it he was
sick yeah kicked him back finally he was in coma or brain dead and then passed once he got back to
the states or was he united states i forget where yeah yeah yeah he was from virginia and all he did
cody was went down in the hotel he was staying i don't know if he drank or anything but he went
down to one floor and took one poster
there was like a propaganda poster or something there was a poster on a cork board and he was
like oh this is really cool yeah it was like oh this is a really cool memorabilia i want to bring
that home so that's my understanding what happened and then yeah and then it was full-on work labor
camp north korean they pulled him aside as his entire class was boarding the flight they pulled
pulled him aside and then everyone had to return without him so it's a class trip yeah that's
under what circumstance are americans going to north korea as like a field trip i don't know just
- Let's go to South Korea.
- I don't know, I would never go to one of those countries
fuck with anything like i would be on that next level of like you know what nope i'm good to go
these people don't care about their own people they really do not give a
about me if you want to experience the north korean nightlife just stay in your house and
turn the lights off it's not that fucking hard and turn off your internet just turn off all
electricity for fuck's sake it's like oh man what the fuck were you thinking going there any of that
the that is one of my favorite vice docs is the north korean but that's when the vice was really
good yeah they actually made decent content did you ever see when they went to north korea no
beautiful doc because it is he sneaks in a camera he he has one out and then he sneaks one in and he
documents everything and they ride in a train
he's talking to russians then he is like hey what is this oh this is where they bring
north korean prisoners to russia to work labor camps and then they kick them back home and then
he is documenting every little thing of it awesome doc awesome doc i'll send it to you
that's scary sneaking a camera in there especially if a poster gets you that's risky
and that's what uh he had an extra sd card too so anytime like you have to delete that
and he's like oh okay deletes it was just like a
the the camera guy yeah the chinese you're talking about no no i forgot about that yeah
shasho too not not shasho i was talking about the uh gary plushay thing because remember the the the
guy that was recording it oh oh yeah immediately as soon as the shooting happened uh knew the cops
were going to try to get his footage so he popped it out stuck a new tape in and that's the only
reason we have the footage of it happening that's the one yeah that's not why gary why
what you were talking about right before yeah yeah
i forgot about that yeah the shot show thing we might have just gotten some people executed
we didn't know it was what happened you guys oh no they were oh we knew oh yeah like it was
when you're at shasho it is wild you will watch all the different countries that do come there
and they're like 3d scanning the firearms i mean so what is this shot shows like the world's
largest gun manufacturing meeting okay okay it's a huge thing for the gun gun industry uh tens and
tens of thousands of people every year get together in vegas i think it was like i don't know i don't
want to shit out a bad number but like 80 000 people 80 120 000 so they they uh we congregate
there in vegas for like one week out of the year uh it's a big like exhibitor trade you have to be
industry to go okay and for whatever reason um shasho continues to allow like like obvious
chinese nationals to be going around and just like they'll 3d scan shit like it is a like
wobbling new prototype weapons that the largest companies in the world are releasing
interesting they're just taking they used to be like they just take pictures of everything you're
like oh god i wonder why he's here um but it it has become a bigger and bigger problem well uh
at one point last year um they came up to us or this most recent shot show uh there was a group
of uh chinese guys they were very nice they're very polite uh they said oh they're we're big
fans of your content can we grab a picture like yeah absolutely man sure of course get together
for a photo like all right smile and say
fuck communism
oh yeah the the guy immediately like went fucking stone-faced grabbed his camera and we all watched
him pull his f***ing sd card out of the camera oh wow oh yeah from that one statement oh wow
don't you love living in a free country where that's like an actual concern so they're probably
in a labor camp now but you know you know shit happens that was one of those wild ones where
you got to watch it happen you're like oh wow i've never seen someone do this and i'm like oh my god
just go white as a ghost and it's like well i'm deleting this or taking this card out and destroying
it yep we were all there too it's like what the f*** dude yeah we all witnessed that that was
f***ing crazy so i want the guys to hear the one story you recently did which is the the redneck man
and the redneck not even the wife but oh oh the girlfriend dude this is yeah no i can't believe
that happened as well like that's like i don't know so for my
content like the the perfect story is essentially where the thumbnail and title or something so
unbelievable people look at it and they go there's no way that happened and when they click on the
video it's like oh yeah that happened um so this guy got a phone call from a scammer saying that
hey your long lost uncle died you're inheriting 30 million dollars you have to meet us at an airport
and bring a certain amount of information about yourself and we'll sign over 30 million dollars
to you so he's like okay cool
i made 30 million dollars now this is awesome so he told all of his friends and the person he
lived with which was his girlfriend at the time oh no she then got really worried that um he was
going to leave her with his newfound wealth so his real newfound yeah his real newfound wealth
so she decided to poison him the day he was going to go meet the person to sign over and get the
money i guess she gives him a bunch of um what's it called antifreeze yeah it's antifreeze uh and uh
he drinks it apparently antifreeze tastes sweet if you distill it yeah so uh neighbor's dog trick
apparently so so on the way to the airport he's just getting sicker and sicker and all of his
friends are starting to get worried about him and she's like oh he's having a heat stroke so and then
for some reason all of a sudden we're like yeah that sounds about right so they get to the airport
and he's too sick to go to the airport and he's like oh he's having a heat stroke and he's like oh
even do the meeting so she's like oh i'll take him home and they were like sounds good but weren't
they wanting to take him to the the hospital first and she's like no oh yeah they wanted to
originally and then she was like hey i'm gonna take him home and i'm like okay cool yeah and
then uh yeah he goes home and apparently dies there um and at one point his friends kept
checking on him they kept going to the house they're like hey we'd really love to see him
where is he and she was like oh yeah we had to put him into the emergency room
and then they were like which one and she didn't answer so then they started going to every single
emergency room in town and they couldn't find him or any records of him even being there
so that's when they finally called the cops and found out everything that she poisoned him but uh
she obviously lied and said that she didn't do it and all that and then eventually they found out
it was because he was going to inherit 30 million dollars but then they were like from where and
that's where the scammer story got i was gonna say that sounds like such a fucking scam that it's like
it just never happened yeah no well the thing that's driving me crazy is that they're not
married no it gets better brandon okay this is brother this is a train right that's why
she wouldn't she wouldn't that's a key part yeah she wouldn't have gotten jack
shit yes she thought because of common law that she would get it but her state doesn't have common
law jesus christ god so yeah now she's uh in prison for 25 years
um that doesn't seem like enough yeah but she's old so it's kind of like a life sentence no matter
what but still it was 25 years of prison and then 25 years of probation after that was what they
put it down to so uh yeah no crazy story can't believe that happened but i guess it happened
over no money i'm gonna kill this dude because i think common law is a thing and then i'll inherit
half she thought she would get half or something like that right to get i don't know she thought
yeah i i don't know what she was doing but she was like i don't know what she was doing but she
was thinking but it was like it was like the pinnacle of white trash stories oh yeah like
that is like how is this possible guys come on no reason imagine being the scammer just reading the
news like yeah yeah to accidentally catch a manslaughter charge oh i gotta go shit that's
if even knew about it because most likely that scammer is like abroad i really want to find out
what the meet me at an airport i'm like all right
this is already the most elaborate scam i've ever fucking heard of that's the one i didn't
that's i said that yesterday wear a suit and ask for five grand to do the transfer some crazy
like yeah literally yeah that's yeah mostly they were thinking it was like a way to get
money out of him so they wanted to like meet him and look all legit so he thought it was legit and
then he had to pay for like legal fees to transfer money yeah sure that's like like like throw me like
five to twenty grand or some shit like yeah like we got to pay you're getting 30 million but you
don't know how much money you're gonna get out of this piece of paper see it's real and here's all
the documents just sign here give us money we'll start the transfer and done and instead it is
dead it's yeah it's sad it's depressing what was it just i just it's still the scammer just like
oh no billy bob told me you'd be here by now
oh no billy bob told me you'd be here by now
it's like holy shit holy shit so what's one of the most fucked up stories that you've covered
i know we were just talking about the um the one girl that got canceled on the the flight
brandon and you didn't know about the twitter when she tweeted yeah yeah yeah 2000 do you
remember this cutting one of the greatest tweets of all time dude 2013 did you know
so a lady is traveling to south africa so she is literally i'm taking off and she tweets
uh heading wait heading to south africa hopefully i don't get aids just jk because i'm white that's
her tweet before she flies off
she is she no internet on the entire flight when she is when she lands in africa she has been
fired the hashtag is trending has justine landed yet she is hated across the world so she didn't
know any of that happened because she hit send tweet right as she took off landed and then
fucking canceled fired everything she's like oh oh oh i was like holy dog that's wild you state
facts and you get fired i just i just imagine being gainfully employed and you're just like
i gotta bang her but i guarantee she showed her friends like is it good oh yeah you should tweet
that hits tweet and then did not enjoy the rest of that trip i bet no so at what point was she like
talking about this in an interview where you're like because you said her quote was like when i
hated the whole world hated me like was she talking about this later like what uh she apologized and
then it was just the sending of the tweet and i'm heading to africa and then she had no response or
presence on the internet until she landed and that's when the the apology came through because
it was i have this 13 hour window of nothing other than the internet hates me now and i'm fired from
my job too i am so sorry that so she was she was blissfully unaware until she landed and got all
the notifications that she got fired dude yeah i can make this story so much better do you know
what she did for a living no what fucking guess pr she did pr oh amazing she was a pr officer for
a u.s public relations uh company that is well played how do you do pr i think you know what
as i said gotta bang your tweet let me hit this one for full send what's gonna happen
so if she was in pr that's just a massive skill issue
to be fair she sounds just like unsubs pr officer we're just throwing
actually yeah oh yeah don our new pr officer
brandon what kind of shirt is that i'm glad you asked eli this is a poncho brandon and i actually
wear a poncho so much we constantly end up wearing the same nice poncho shirt good thing nobody's ever
pointed that out before now if you guys have ever seen one of our live shows or this podcast in
general you'll see brandon and i wearing these incredibly comfortable great looking shirts all
the time finn pull it up with pictures they're literally always wearing the same shirt i got
turned on a poncho like a year ago been wearing them ever since uh personally prefer i think this
is the western because it's got the pearl snaps uh because it's hot in texas and i like something
cool here's the thing i find really cool brandon do the glasses trick so ponchos have this neat
little thing in the pocket where you just take your glasses no that's the other one be more
specific about that all right watch everyone so if you got fat fingers and you smudge your
glasses all the time the bottom of the shirt actually acts it has like a microfiber so you
can clean your glasses i make him clean my phones he does i like the hidden little pocket on the
breast wait what right over here
got a little zipper pocket i don't even know about that one is that where you hold cody's heart and
his drugs things you might need to know poncho has put a lot of thought and detail into each one of
their shirts oh holy they're soft they're really soft yo what that's my one like thing is fabric
sensitivity i don't wear uncomfortable shirts this is comfy as that's why we wear them all

to answer your question about some of the craziest stories i've covered there was this one vlogger
from the u.s who decided to just i guess move to the philippines in a very remote and dangerous
area and vlog his experience he couldn't get a job there so he decided to become a vlogger in the
philippines in a very remote and dangerous area and vlog his experience he couldn't get a job there
there. So he decided to become a loan shark. And he documented himself doing this on YouTube. So,
yeah, that was a really bad idea. And because of that publicity and a bunch of people started
owing him money, I guess, and they ended up just killing him. So, yeah, that's how they
erased their debt. But that all unfolded on YouTube, unfortunately. So that was a really
bad idea. That was one of the stories. He was like, I'm not making money,
so now I'm going to document being a loan shark. He just had a lot in savings or something?
Okay. So essentially, he was a travel blogger and he was just like, hey, I'm documenting my life.
And he was like, oh, I met this girl online or something like that, which was some Filipino girl.
And he moved out there to be there. And she lived on this extremely remote village on an island.
My understanding is it's one of the most dangerous areas in the world.
And because, you know, there's no real job opportunities there, especially for a
foreigner that doesn't know any skills, he became a loan shark because he had some money.
So that's what he did. He documented it all and then suddenly he went missing.
Coca-Cola. For the big. For the small. The short and the tall. Peacemakers. Risk takers.
For the optimist.
Pessimists. For long distance love. For introverts and extroverts. The thinkers and the doers.
For old friends and new. Coca-Cola. For everyone. Pick up some Coca-Cola at a store near you.
And he was live streaming every single day. And then suddenly his live stream stopped and people
went, oh boy. Yeah. And there was multiple times where he was like,
it seems dangerous. I'm getting a lot of death threats. But he was still
live streaming and staying on that island. So, uh, yeah, no, that was one of the stories,
um, that was just horrifying. Uh, so yeah, don't do that. Big cautionary tale.
It doesn't seem like that big of a big brain to be like that not smart. Me not do that. Like.
It, it seems like the theme of this episode is don't go to a foreign country and fuck around.
Yeah. Don't fuck around and find out. Especially. Yeah. Don't, don't fuck around in general, but,
especially don't, don't around in a foreign country where you do not have your constitutional
protections of the United States. Cause I promise you the rest of the world does not give a fuck.
Asian countries with drugs. That's one of the things it's like Asian countries do not
fuck around with any drugs like weed or anything. Very big. No, no. And Japan,
China, South Korea, where it is like, Hey, we're going to crucify you if we find this.
And then you still have people though, but how bad can it be in America? It's legal. And you're like,
homie, what? I mean, we just traded the Lord of war for a WNBA player over the exact same thing,
which is wild.
You also had the, uh, you had a school shooting prank that I covered, uh, where
that happened in, um, oh yeah, that happened in, oh, I want to say it was either Vermont or
Connecticut. Um, but two kids thought it was super fun to go on Tik TOK and go into the cafeteria and
go, everybody get down. And then the other guy went, he's got a gun. Um, so yeah, that was super
funny. Um, I think they were facing like some serious time for that. Obviously that happened
a couple of years ago. So I haven't followed up and see what actually happened there,
but that was a pretty appalling and shocking story.
Speaker 2: I got a commenter arrested for that one time,
crazy 17 year old high school kid in Florida commented on one of my videos. It's like,
I can't wait to go to my high school list, the high school and do this, this, and this. And I
contacted the local police department where you said he was at and they went and arrested the kid.
I don't think it was actually going to do anything, but he was making some pretty
fucked up threats. He had his last name and his username for some goddamn reason.
And they, the police department contacted me later and was like, Hey, figured out who it was.
We arrested him for terroristic threats. I mean, yeah, I've seen the ding dong ditch prank
or the trend on Tik TOK where people are running and jump kicking people's doors,
kicking people's doors. And you saw, did you see that someone died pretty recently?
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think it was an old dude. Just fucking shot him or some shit.
Speaker 2: No, it was young. He was a vet.
Speaker 1: Oh, nice.
Speaker 2: Not the house you want to kick in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, exactly. And it was like three in the morning.
Speaker 2: Exactly.
Speaker 1: Three in the morning.
Speaker 2: It was three in the morning. Dude, it was three in the morning. And
I think it's kind of rural Virginia.
Speaker 1: Brother in Christ, just stacking L's.
Speaker 2: The vet was probably like upper, like he's probably around our age, like 28 to 31 ish.
Speaker 1: Yeah, how old are you though?
Speaker 2: And there was like a high school senior who did it and all three of them. So
there were three guys and they took turns. They all ran to the door and they jumped,
jump kicked the door. So you had three massive,
so that's like, he's probably thinking his house is getting broken into. So he grabbed his gun and
he was ready. And now everything with the story is a little unclear. If he fired through his door,
if he opened the door and fired after them, because now like he was arrested and that's a whole,
thing that's ongoing.
Speaker 1: They'll probably drop that because even Texas has castle doctrine for
property at three in the morning.
Speaker 2: It depends on it. Virginia doesn't have castle doc or well,
they have a stand your ground, I think, but I don't think they have castle doctrine. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Fucking Commonwealth of Virginia. They
Yeah, they probably hemmed him up just for defending his own home.
Well, it probably depends wildly if you said that there's some discrepancy
as to whether or not he fired through the door or he opened the door
and fired at fleeing people.
Because there are some people, yeah, exactly, that's the problem.
If he chased after them or did something like that,
then obviously it's completely different.
Obviously, I don't value those people whatsoever, but at the same time,
there is the legal standard for it.
The victim was Michael Bosman, I think his name was.
That was the guy who died.
Oh, he killed him?
Oh, shit, oh, okay, I missed that detail, sorry.
No, yeah, the gunfire killed him and then grazed the other one.
So one of them got grazed and then one got killed
and then the other one managed to get away.
It's a wild thought process at 3 in the morning to do that,
especially rural, like you're like everyone's going to have a gun out here.
Because I've covered this story a few times.
Rural Virginia against a veteran, 3 o'clock in the morning,
it's like, man, at what point do you just look at your homies and say,
man, this is not a great idea.
Yeah, so Virginia has no duty.
To retreat, you can stand your ground if you're in your home
or on your curtilage, which, you know, is your front porch.
Yeah.
There is no duty to retreat.
If you fear that your life is in danger.
But it's the retreating part.
I mean, three loud bangs at 3 in the morning.
Yeah, exactly, that's what I'm thinking too.
They were running away or something maybe.
Yeah, which, ballistically speaking, that's not hard to figure out.
No.
Yeah.
No.
Jesus.
Yeah, no, because I've covered that trend so many times as well,
probably three or four times on my channel, and every single time,
I'm like, oh, my God.
Yeah.
And I'm like, this is going to end really bad.
And then, obviously, that happened.
Yeah.
And it was a really big case.
So the guy that's going around, I don't think he was in the United States,
but the staking people with a needle that doesn't have anything in it.
Yeah, I just saw that.
That was also crazy.
And that also happened, like, right after.
Like, I don't know if you guys saw that Paris had these, like,
needle attacks where 150 people got stabbed during a festival.
I was there at the festival, fun fact.
No shit.
Yeah, no, so.
So you have AIDS.
No, yeah, exactly.
No, I was there.
I was not stabbed with a needle.
Thank, thank fuck.
But still.
But, like, was it actually, was there something on the needle,
or was it just they were just stabbing people?
We don't know.
We don't know.
Oh, shit.
Oh.
Yeah, people just were reported then getting jabbed with syringes.
And it was, like, 150 people who got jabbed,
and they don't know what the fuck happened.
I forgot what the festival was called,
and I didn't even know about the festival.
My friends were just going to Paris, and we had already been to Cannes.
And I was like, well, actually, I don't have a return flight.
Might as well go there and see what Paris is like,
because I've never been there.
We get there.
Everyone's in the streets partying.
Like, the whole downtown area.
And we're like, oh, this is cool.
So we ended up just wandering around.
Had a good time.
Next morning, apparently some people had a bad time,
because 150 people got stabbed with a needle during that.
So that was crazy.
But it was, like, crazy,
because it was, like, probably a million people in the street,
shoulder to shoulder.
Jesus.
Hopefully he kept, like, taking out new needles and not just fucking.
Well, we don't know if it's one person, if it was many.
Like, there's a lot of uncertainty.
One was a prank, one was a tax.
So the prank guy was like,
and you don't know even if that was.
I saw the prank thing.
Was that an actual needle?
Yes, it was an actual needle.
He was actually stabbing people.
No, no, no.
He had a cap on it.
Okay, got it.
But it was a real syringe.
And, yeah.
No, I actually, I covered it,
but I haven't posted the video because it got demonetized.
So I'm waiting for it to get reviewed right now.
So we're kind of in that purgatory state right there on that one.
But, yes, he ran around with a cap needle and just did it.
And he specifically did it a lot on, like, women in front of their boyfriends and stuff.
Stuff like that.
Because he's a big guy.
So he was kind of, like, trying to taunt people.
Because he thought that was funny.
So, yeah.
That is a wild.
Great guy.
I got nothing that won't get me in trouble.
That's what's crazy to me.
I'm like, and just doing that in Texas.
Oh, dude, yeah, no.
Awful idea.
See, everyone carries that.
Everyone carries that.
Especially if you're going out to, like, wife, kid, family.
This prank brought to you by staccato.
Dang hero shot.
Oh, boy.
But you're f***ing with somebody's family or girl.
It's like, oh, man.
And especially if it's, you just see a needle.
Yeah.
Because you don't see the cap.
Like, it's, like, even on video, like, you could not see the cap.
But in the court documents, they said that the cap was there.
So that's the only proof that we have that the needle was capped was in the court documents.
Yeah.
So.
And his defense was, in court, his defense was literally, I was just being funny.
It was just a prank.
So, of course.
It's just a prank, bro.
Yeah.
Straight up.
Oh, then there's the guy in Belgium who, he made this, like, sludge bucket.
And he called it the sludge bucket prank where he put dog poop, a bunch of, like, liquids and everything.
And he just approached someone on the metro completely randomly and just dumped it on them.
And then ran away.
And that was the prank.
It's not a prank.
That's just.
It's just a crime.
Yeah, no, exactly.
And he was facing, like, a crazy amount of time in prison.
But they ended up only giving him, like, six months.
So, yeah, he's back on the street.
They were like, hey, please don't make videos anymore.
Here's six months.
That was kind of his sentence there.
So.
I truly believe.
But he was banned from using social media for two years.
So that's kind of like.
Oh, two years.
Yep.
No, literally.
It's one of those things where it's difficult because I truly think you should hammer, like, if they do that, hammer those people.
So then no one wants to copycat it.
Because if they see a really big hammer, then it's like, oh, fuck.
Okay, that guy got screwed over.
When it comes to crime stuff, it's like there's a difference between a kid making a mistake.
Yeah.
You know, like some young impressionable kid, you know, maybe around a little bit with the wrong crowd, whatever.
People like that.
Like, dude, I have a hard time seeing arguments against you being euthanized.
Like, that's a completely different ballpark.
Yeah.
Because it is.
Oh, and again, it is not six months.
It's.
They hammer them.
So people their age thinking, oh, I can do this.
And look, this is all I'll get if I get caught.
It's also influencing younger kids because they're doing it for a few period and younger kids are going to watch it and be like, oh, I'm going to do the same thing.
It's just like they started legally sticking it to the people that were doing that.
Like, they'd open up the ice cream at the grocery stores and lick, lick, lick out of it and record themselves doing it.
Oh, dude, that's so disgusting.
I saw that as well.
The one dude that was spraying insecticide, he would walk around with raid and then walk.
Buy the fresh fruit and just spray it, dude, and record it.
You know who I'm talking about?
Yes, I've covered that guy.
Yeah.
His name is Wolfie Coletti.
He's been on my radar for probably like three years at this point because he's done so much before that.
He his his most recent one or no before the insecticide one, the one that like I was like crazed about or like shocked about, honestly, was at what point is that just chemical terrorism?
Oh, yeah.
He got prison for that.
No, he got jail for that.
Not prison jail.
That's good.
And he's out.
He's out now as well.
Way less good.
But the first thing that like really shocked me that he went kind of viral for was he ran into I think it was a Wendy's.
He had a bag of ice and he just dumped a bag of ice into the fryer while filming it and then ran.
Yeah.
Explode.
Yeah.
No, it's flooded the whole thing.
So he did that.
I don't think he ever got charged for that as well, which is like really interesting.
Then he did another thing where he was buying cakes from the grocery store.
And he would go two, three stories up, throw it at people and then try to hit them.
So like that's like that battery really fucking hurt someone.
He did that.
He had an ongoing series of doing that on his on his tick tock again.
He was doing like he had like easily 30 or 40 videos of doing crazy stuff like that for
$10.
Finally, just up the stakes, because what I keep saying is what happens with these guys is they keep on having to up the stakes to keep up the stakes.
They keep getting the viral videos because they can't just do something that was as tame or tame as the last one because people get tired of it.
So they keep on leveling themselves up into a serious felony.
But he was really just he was given a slap on the wrist for the whole raid incident because he went to a Wal-Mart in Mesa, sprayed the whole produce section with raid and then uploaded it to TikTok and then he thought it was hilarious.
And then he left Wal-Mart and then I think he had an oh shit moment where he was like.
There's a bunch of insecticides on produce.
No one knows about that.
So then he panicked and ran back into the store about like 15 or 20 minutes later, grabbed as much as what he could from the produce section, put it in like a shopping cart and then wheeled the shopping cart into the back of the Wal-Mart and then ran out of the store.
So that's what he did to clean it up.
What a hero.
Yep.
And then obviously he was arrested.
He sat in like this.
He sat in the police station, I think, or jail for a certain amount of time waiting for his trial.
And then he got about a year, I think, and then with time served from to his trial.
So there's just so much.
There's so many of those things where people will just put it on TikTok like there's no accountability.
Oh, yeah.
Sometimes there's not, which is the irritating part.
And like this is going to get like a little political.
But like, I don't care what political party you're on when you're doing shit like this.
You're just a piece of shit.
There were so many of those during like the 2020 election.
I remember seeing like TikTok videos of poll workers that were bragging about like having stacks of Trump ballots.
And shit like that and like throwing them away and like just bragging about that.
I'm like, yeah, it's not.
It's not because it's like my guy or your guy or whatever.
It's like, no, that's that's a felony.
Yeah, you're ballot tampering.
That's that's a crime that you're uploading to the Internet, whether it's red, blue, whatever.
It's like, how the fuck are these people not getting thrown under the jail?
And then you're you're going.
This lives eternally on the Internet once it's up.
And you're like, well, I'm going to document this and then full face and everything.
And you're like, are you sure, homie?
And then they're surprised.
Pikachu, I got five.
like huh really and you have a kelly tedford who uh she was running around uh and filming herself
urinating on grocery items in the store so she popped a squat and urinated on items while
filming it for her tiktok account because this was all to promote her uh her spicy lincoln bio
um so she used so she just kept getting banned on tiktok but kept making new tiktoks where she
would do something where she'd pee on something in public um i've seen a lot of those like with
like they'll they'll pull their underwear off or something like that and shove it into like
random grocery store items like what and that's bad enough but like pissing on shit in the like
yeah and i think she lives in i think it's keen new hampshire is the town and that had all of
these people from keen hit me up and she's like this woman has been terrorizing our town for ages
because apparently she was a doordass and uber each driver and people kept reporting getting
like their food peed on and uh that was from
her because she was uploading it for her content and making some decent money doing this apparently
my understanding is that keen is like the asheville or austin of uh of new hampshire is it yeah it's
like i didn't know that it's it's like a big libertarian presence and stuff like that there
but it also brought a lot of weird people like a lot of like the weird hippie types
like free keen and all that it was a nice town i went there for the trial oh no yeah i went there
for the trial and then i love that you go to all the charges like this is good content i'll be out
that's fucking hilarious well like okay so the thing is like there's these niche people on the
lady who do crazy things and we get zero coverage of them so i was like well looking at flights i
was like i will happily pay like round trip like 700 bucks for like flights and hotels so i can go
boots on the ground and put some attention on this because we should not accept this like we
should all live in a society where we don't get harassed on the street by someone trying to farm
content off of you and you don't get your groceries peed on before you buy them like that's like not
that much to ask really so like that's why i want to go the bare minimum exactly so so i fly out to
cover these things i was disappointed with that uh trial coverage though because i got there and
we found out that uh because she'd peed on so many items they they upped the charges
and moved the courts and delayed the trial by months because now it's like she was technically
misdemeanor or small small small crimes i forgot what small claims small claims court essentially
for that um yeah now now she's she was in felony court so i love that that implies there's a legal
benchmark for the amount of shit you're allowed to pee on before it becomes well yeah it had to
it had to create what it was more than 1500 dollars in damage oh yeah okay i think that
depends on the state yeah yeah well so because she did that much damage yeah
f and chat and then obviously you have all their crypto guys which is just becoming more and more
of a problem of like the both crypto scammers and now ecom course seller scammers like it's
we're in some interesting times now especially like the crypto guys they're doing it so like
it's just in broad daylight because everything's the blockchain yep and you can just hide it
that's how i got sued was because um i called out bitboy crypto for just rug pulling his audience
over and over again um and then he sued me which is defamation wait
well one more time hey you probably heard of yellow fresh hello fresh hello fresh like of

is wild uh really quick the we've been offered to do a nfts yeah yeah coins like they're like hey
we have a meme corn for you but uh it won't be a scam and it's it's it's gonna be a scam it's gonna
we will never do a coin period because guess what all of them are fucking scams at the end of the
day we've gotten like seven digit offers yeah to do coins like that and shit same are gambling as
well not i haven't gotten too many coin offers but i've got gambling deal offers of like seven
figures and it's like what the fuck you're not gambling i'm something of a scientist myself
but they'll just keep doing it over and over and then they get they'll it's crazy
to do it once and then people don't catch on the second third fourth time and they're like
and they continue and like oh okay i'm not getting in trouble i'm just gonna keep rug pulling people
well that last one was someone else's fault i did i'm doing it again this one's gonna be a sure
banger oh all the money's gone it was it was crazy the guy who like scammed the or i don't
know if he actually scammed or not the the was it the president of argentina oh javier malay
yeah like that was all very interesting tobacco that was weird i i saw the
that it happened i didn't read too far into exactly what it was they launched a coin with
his name and they promoted it with official government profiles and it went to like i think
it went close to a billion dollars and then they pulled the liquidity god and was he like directly
involved in like like the rug pull itself to to be disclosed i don't know uh it's like the main
thing about it yeah no my understanding is there was a guy by the name of hayden davis who was
behind it all and
my understanding also is he just got the money from it because technically it wasn't illegal what
he did so um yeah no very very interesting uh situation that's like one of the few cases when
it comes to like big crypto scams that i actually didn't cover so i'm not the most uh well versed
on that one but uh yeah that was an interesting thing that happened for sure do you happen to
know because i know you're friends with a lot of our boys like uh you know oompa vill and stuff
like that do you know uh coffee zilla yeah like yeah i'm not like close
with him but like we've talked like many times he helped me so much during my lawsuit
yeah i only have positive experiences with him yeah no no he's he's awesome dude i just i didn't
know like because you know there's a lot of just overlap in what we do i'm like yeah no definitely
if that's somebody no definitely there's yeah we definitely overlap there you knew jimmy since how
many subs yeah uh 40 000 yeah it was somewhere it was below 100 000 subscribers for sure oh yeah oh
oh so jimmy jimmy yeah yeah he knew him for a lot and i was like what like because we were in like
these skype groups of just like a bunch of guys just trying to figure out how to do youtube full
time there's a good skype group right there yeah no that was it was a highly successful skype group
right there because oh was that uh was that the one i've heard about this i think on pka because
i think quebel quebel yeah oh that's okay that's a broader one and no i wasn't in the i wasn't in
the internal chat with uh him because like the one that he went on joe rogan and talked about
like that was with him and then like some of my friends also gotcha um but that was i think it was
only four people in that chat i was not in that i was in a larger skype chat that i think had the max
members of like 50 so we're like 50 guys but i was i remember looking in that chat uh before skype
got uh ko'd um out of the 50 people i think like 30 of them have over a million subscribers
uh and the rest of them just quit youtube coca-cola for the big for the small the short and the tall
peacemakers risk takers for the optimists pessimists for long distance loathe for introverts
and extroverts the thinkers and the doers for old friends and new coca-cola for everyone
pick up some coca-cola at a store near you so and then skype got ko'd well like it's it doesn't
exist anymore i didn't know does it not
really we lost skype right am i am i like i don't know like hello wait did discord just like knock
them out yeah wait skype doesn't exist it became teams or something right you have teams you have
a whole bunch i mean like oh oh yeah it made it may 5th yeah okay yeah okay yeah sure i don't know
about that how is that we don't do none of the business meetings i would actually turn down
business meetings and make them use google teams because they'd be like can you yeah google me and
you download skype i'm like no i'm not what no i'm not making a skype account to google hangouts
and all that yeah like anything else discord that's cool
because i i didn't know i there's only like a couple like news outlets used to use skype that's
the only reason i was ever on skype after like fucking i don't know 2015 um when the
we always had like these chats running on skype because back in the day on skype if two people
were on the call and it was a large group chat anyone can join and leave whenever as long as
two people at least were in the call so they were always running so i remember like after school we'd
jump on like skype and just talk to whoever of was in that group that was kind of active
talking about youtube and stuff because i feel like uh the covid killed skype with zoom like
zoom and stuff like that just starting yeah for corporate at least but discord killed skype for
the the social like anyone who plays video games and stuff they use discord not skype but it used
to be it used to be skype or like if you're in like if you played a bunch of wow you're in like
either team speak or ventrilo dude it's it has been you play well yeah i used to play a bunch
if you said vent
i have i have not played a lot of wow since pandaria so it's been a while i'm just saying
the classic server is kind of fuck right now they're they're good they're good man i started
oh shit i might need to join it that'd be that'd be a lot of fun classic pvp server they're about
to release burning crusade oh no way yeah that's cool i get to relive the release of burning
crusade again i'm like kind of psyched about it that was a wild
fedar text me and was like oh are you gonna join cody and me i was like what that's when i text you
i was like how the fuck do you know you huh dude that's my old eq that's like 25 years of knowing
that dude through internet forums through doing everquest yeah because i want to say fedar is one
i think he was part of fire in heaven but that was the pinnacle that was the number one raid
the number one guild ever on eq and he was part of that so it was just like bullshit and everything
i'm a sentence of saying i like i have been playing video games online with this person for
25 years kind of that's my brain a little bit that's like oh my god brandon that's you were
four yeah probably you were three four or five yeah because fedar is one of like the the top
officers in my guild now yep like he's organizing everyone to get uh get into raiding because we're
all like trying to get as close to 60s we can before burning crusade comes out and fedar is
organizing everything
he never said he knew you and then you hit me up and he's like do you know this guy
so it's just weird like me and this dude kind of he's like one of the guild leaders now that makes
sense why he's a guild like he was dude eq this is when i was telling brandon yeah because we were
in the gym yesterday talking about this i'm just like your reaction the amount of hours because
i've never played any sort of mmo like that so brandon i was like yeah when you die you lose
your character perfect he's like man imagine losing a character with 30 hours i was like
oh brandon 30 hours is a
fucking you're level 10 at that point yeah no i lost tens of thousands of hours for wow
unfortunately that is so i started like burning crusade and then i played way too much all the
way through uh cataclysm and then when pandaria came out i was like all right one last shot
and then yeah i just wanted to go all in youtube you were talking about the amount of time asman
had in it 10 000 oh yeah more it was like 1200 days oh yeah that was it 1200 days yeah yeah i'm
like brother at that point do you just at what point do you just pay someone to bring the grass
to you so you can touch it like just a little patch of astrid i had an idea about asmon all
right here's what we're gonna do let's hear it we're gonna get tectone to go up there to his
house does it involve a crime yes okay tectone's gonna gain his trust at the front door so asmon
hits a button and lets him in i don't know how he opens this door but we're gonna be behind him so
tectone's you know he he he's gonna get us in there he's gonna block the web yeah yeah the ring camera
so we go in breaching we're gonna slip in and kidnap him and bring him down here at least to
just hang out with the boys a little bit we don't even need to do content no we don't even have to
do a podcast let's just hang out touch grass shoot a gun yeah as we talk about breaching his house
moving
let's do that
you
all them they live up in austin i don't know if yeah they everyone says austin area and in tech
now i don't know if he wants that disclosed he lives closer to us now
i think that's public i think yeah yes he did say he moved okay we have so many creators
they'll like come hang out and then they move to here yeah yeah like a significant amount yeah i
think that's awesome it is public that he's yeah he's in austin we've had like five creators maybe
more than that come hang out and then they move to here yeah like a significant amount yeah i think
that's awesome it is public that he's yeah he's in austin we've had five creators maybe more than
that come hang out and then they move to here yeah yeah like a significant amount yeah i think
down here and be like this place is kind of cool and you guys just make content that isn't lame and
they just move here that and i feel like it's unique for our group that we just hang out
outside of what makes us money like it's just we're just actually genuinely friends in real
life and not just like what can you do for me right like that's sort of i think that's big
in like l.a yeah austin in the l.a dude the austin guys are bad about that too it's like
hey let's go out just have fun go drink we just did cody's bachelor party which was a nice real
relaxing like yeah the livers hurt because yeah i was in bed by 8 p.m night one because it was
travel all day and then drink and i was like i'll go lay down for a second 9 a.m rolls around i'm
like i dude i wish i could tell y'all some crazy fucking stories but we sat by the pool tattoos
oh yeah it did happen we did get tattoos brandon gang tat finally yeah yeah i think we all have it
now i've had mine for a minute i didn't i didn't get any tattoos
that's the opposite watch band because i still can't probably have that on there yeah you're
fine now i was gonna get an ak-47 but they showed me a fucking minecraft ak-47 which is now on eli's

and then i got rich's angry cop helmet which kind of looks like saturn instead which i'm fine with
nice so we're like the drill the drill sergeant hat yeah i'm like oh dude and then watching
everyone get tattoo you rich and when it hits the tendon you're like talking and there's like
the real quick lock-in yeah like yeah that's not too
that was the first tattoo yeah i don't have any tattoos i always knew this was going to be the
first because we uh everybody in the gang got this one at uh eli's birthday party five years ago
yep we were over at your house i think will came over yeah and uh i really was kind of new to the
group at the time so i'm like oh a i'm not really sure i want a tattoo yet and b like i don't think
i've earned this yet but half a decade later that was the best third i was 35. i turned 30 this is
turning 35 i hate in like i don't want to trouble people like oh if it's my birthday i feel i end
convenient somebody if i'm like hey do you want to go to dinner for my birthday that feels like i'm
like oh that's asking a lot my friends are like traveling to me they're flying across the country
to come hang out and then i have friends which they're like hey why don't you invite me it's like
it's not that i just didn't want it it's a lot of that's a you're flying so then everyone flew out
we had like eight people there we laid out on the air mattresses air mattresses we got drunk as shit
live stream playing video games and getting tattoos and then they got the gang tattoos
you got your gang tattoo and now that's a staple for us
and then just best 35 ever we woke up the next day hung over and eli's driving us to the range
up through a windy back texas road dude he's just sitting there blasting fucking anime intro music
driving like a psychopath because we had watched ford v ferrari the night before
and so he's just race car driving up this mountain while we're all pretty
like fucked up from the night before didn't know he was a race car driver before and that's his
passion yep and i remember thinking the whole time like oh man i don't like i'm friends with
these guys but i'm like i haven't been for very long like i don't i don't want to be that guy
right now i might have to go puke in the bushes or like tell him to stop we pull up to the range
cody jumps out of the car and pukes in a ditch and i'm like thank god it wasn't just me i was like oh
i was a dick like motion sickness i don't get it so i don't know dude you were doing the like
making my way downtown you were so you were so happy yeah just anime music anime intros blasting
and i'm back there green as shit just like you and i were both locked in i didn't i didn't notice
you were you were in a bad place too because i was like just eyes forward like thinking of
anything else it was no different than what moody with the jet oh yeah that was i was i tried to
warn salvo i was like hey motion sickness like i get it
smidge in a jet just because it is a lot like yeah it's a lot of g's yeah and then the girls
it was like oh it won't be they had their little bags and like this is uh-oh uh-oh because i think
moody puked twice yeah yeah sav was holding and swallowing yeah she did baby and she's like
oh because she beelined as soon as she got out of the fucking jet she ran straight to the bathroom
i was like oh good time huh this is a little champ the pilot was like you get back there
because all they hear is like oh no oh no the masks on
like sorry babe it's just when they get quiet yeah oh yeah right dude it was a fucking it was
a good time but key west was yeah that was great i didn't realize like half the island is gay bars
yeah that's crazy never been to qs so it's yeah i was warned by a couple people before we went
there's like oh that's an interesting choice for all of you guy people like oh i i just had never
known i think it's the district we were staying in because when you stay closer to that north side
where we went to get steak that one night yeah it's like all the the gay fades away in that area
because i never stayed on like near where we stayed near the naval base dude rich had his
best time at the one game we're yeah cody and me and you were there yeah did you go to the gay bar
no i didn't we we kept walking because i'm not one of you degenerates but rich had the time of
his life the the bartender was amazing
because he was serving we had the nice lesbian couple next to us just laughing
i didn't know it was a gay bar first rich was the one that was like let's go in there how did you
not know hold on hold on hold on we're already a little drunk from brunch rich goes listen to the
music and he does his rich like ah ah goes in there starts twerking and changing the music in
the bar and the little lesbian couple next to us that's when i was like two butch girls holding
hands flags everywhere oh i already ordered a drink i'm gonna finish my drink
and they call me over the little girls next to me the and they're like okay i know you and that
guy aren't the gay one like pointing at me and you and it's like that guy's the gay one pointing at
rich we had to take care of fucking twerking and he was living his best life i was like no he's like
married to a friend of ours me veteran with a sign and nick just all just like looked and we're like
two doors down two doors down and we were it was rich just had the time of his life and the
lesbian couple was asking us they were like
who has to take care of him tonight he is you gotta watch him around the boys i was like actually no
he's just really into dancing and music he's behind the bar changing the music because they
gave him permission what a wild thing to say it's like oh after about uh 12 drinks your friend gets
a little like it's like oh rich you but then what the the rum distillery your buddy owns that
wasn't a fucking awesome that was cool paul yeah yeah qs legal room
he gave us a cool fucking guy yeah yeah it was just a good time like the pool it was much needed
and then as you said it wasn't like let's party it is let's let's drink every white claw on this
island and sit by the pool that's it was the first time in a while that we've all just sit around like
three days like just the boys you know no content no new podcast we're not here for any reason other
than just to hang out yeah it's nice to have some of those disconnects yeah yeah i do not have those
often but i got to take more of them it's our first time i've had some of those disconnects
it's our first one of years i think that was just the boys yeah how old are you again 28 yeah
you start feeling it man yeah especially after 30 oh it gets hard it gets harder and harder the
older you get cody's catching up to like my age and then it is oh shit this is like multiple day
recovery i'm just gonna run with it as long as i can yeah dude dude that's the that's the goal
i started content around the age you are now oh and like you know you're traveling all over the
place you're always hanging out with friends you probably end up getting a couple drinks with them
yeah after a while dude i just needed the last like like yesterday and day before after we got
back from key west i had yeah i just stay at home for like 48 hours and chill yeah it's rough that's
also the thing about south korea is like they drink so much there it's crazy every like all
my friends there like they're like hey let's have lunch and then i go sit down for lunch they're
like one bottle of soju beers for everyone and then start cracking them immediately and i'm like
oh man i thought we were having lunch they are so welcome to the unsubscribed
it's like going to japan we'd get shit wrecked in japan i still want all of us to go to japan
because they have like i've said it's uh we were walking downtown tokyo or koinji and walking
through looking for a bar see a sign it's like all you can drink twenty dollars for 90 minutes
it's like well we're gonna test that limit whoa went upstairs sure shit 20 bucks
they will just bring as much booze as you can order we're like wreck wreck wreck after that
one it's like and then uh the irish pub we renamed was if you bought a drink i was like man it seems
expensive it was like 10 bucks 15 bucks for a drink but it was liters or whatever and i didn't
understand it but it was you were getting it was yes and i was like jesus christ this is like
two gallons of beer and they're like yeah that's what you're paying for i'm like high right everyone
we blacked out that night no
we'll we'll go do a a country trip somewhere sometime vegas's are like and we have that
coming up live shows vegas range range yeah range oh that's we'll have to you'll like range day he's
a gun guy okay yeah oh yeah if you want to come out to uh to range day that'll be fun that'd be
awesome yeah i know i have a handful of guns i had smaller collection compared to any of you guys
though but uh well you know you got to start somewhere my first gun that i actually went out
and bought myself was a ump45 but i have the yeah i have the usa version meaning uh it doesn't
have a foldable stock it's all kind of like all in one you can get them converted yeah it's like
i think it's like tommy tommy bill yeah something like that yeah they'll convert it my friend or one
of my neighbors actually has a converted tommy built version of it so i think i've got a factory
hk machine gun uh the ump40 i did a video on that not like a year ago maybe something like that
gnarly dude it's it's kind of jumpy though in full off yeah because it's 45 acp
yeah it's like i've got friends who really enjoy them in my opinion because it's polymer and it's
super light yeah and i'm pretty sure it's direct blowback yeah it's it's jumpy interesting yeah
i've never shot a tommy gun before or the the ump45 oh oh you have four ump yeah yeah yeah okay
yeah oh cool oh that's that's that's awesome the thompsons aren't aren't jumpy just because they're
so heavy uh but the ergonomics suck ass oh dude interesting okay yeah and they're slow
too like it is a while for a full auto it's like thunk thunk thunk the original no you're thinking
of the grease gun you want an odd og tommy gun no pretty quick really i thought the ogs were like
seven hundred no the well uh well maybe but like the grease gun's very slow rate of fire that one
that's the thought thought thought thought i was like man i if i remember i thought i fired original tommy gun
was 600 rounds per minute because they did was that the one where they had that weird delay mechanism
or something like that i think so oh the dual oh it was reduced rate to fire to six to seven hundred
to make it more manageable for world war ii yeah which even still that's pretty quick like it's not
too bad don't don't don't don't don't they're just chonking big-ass bullets down range
would you also have an lc smith double barrel shotgun like an 1898 one i think lc's see thompson
rate of fire my coachy he's like oh my gosh he's like oh my gosh he's like like oh my gosh he's like
catchy all right man that's a fast one yeah like it's awesome it's pretty decent that one so they
have like the 1921 thompson had a high rate fire 8 to 900 later models uh the 1928 went down to
6 to 700 yeah manageable m1928 is like the that's the the standard one that everybody's done now yeah
wow what's your favorite firearm you have a few so yeah uh i have
i think it's the the the one that's like dubbed like the john wayne the lever action yeah i have
that one uh i think it's a those are fun let's see is it a 3240 1893 or 3240 uh model 1893 lever
action marlin rifle no i've never heard it also the grease gun 450 runs per minute oh that's holy
so yeah that's what i meant like that's wildly slow uh 3240 winchester yeah it's like a super
weird caliber and the ammo costs so much for it i think it's like six dollars a round easily that's
a weird looking yeah i'm actually unfamiliar with that so you got me oh really yeah no you got me on
that one oh interesting wait is that what the uncircumcised uh yeah that's like my prized
possession it's like the coolest gun to fire so the the joke is uh so i oh god you're you're killing
me here uh seven six two by that's 38 uh i believe is the one from the negant revolver
so seven six two like thirty thirty uh that is the it was the negant revolver cartridge used a bunch
uh world war one world war two but the joke is that it's literally an uncircumcised uh cartridge
right
no because like oh interesting the casing extends beyond the bullet's neck right oh no
what it's beyond the bullet no oh wow yeah what the how's that work so it's like it's an
auntie anteater round the bullets actually inside the casing which is wild so yeah uh
editor pull up seven six two by here's me 38r cartridge there's me firing it
and i'm like okay i'm going to do this so i'm going to do this so i'm going to do this
it looks pretty manageable for recoil yeah no it's not it's not bad at all
oh so you're not a 270 uh i think it's a remington yeah hunting rifle
So yeah, that's just a hunting rifle, but, uh, and then a bunch of like just double old
double barreled shotguns.
So my grandpa passed on a bunch of old double barreled shotguns to me, which I think are
really cool.
You ever do anything like a skeet shooting or clay shooting or anything like that?
No, I have not done that yet, but I want to do that.
It's so fun.
Well, then I got to do that at some point.
I've only gone to just outdoor ranges and then just shot outside in my friend's yards.
I'm not any good at it, but it's every time I've done it, I've done it a couple of times
for like charity shoots and stuff like that.
And it is, everybody just has a blast.
Like nobody cares that you suck.
It's just, it's fun to try.
Yeah.
I'm assuming it's really hard as well or no.
I consider a good score for me.
Uh, like if I hit more than 50% of them, like, Oh wow.
That's pretty good.
It's not terribly hard, man.
It depends on the course that they set up.
It's like, if they're just moving slow up there, it's easy to put the barrel near it
and you're going to hit it.
Cause it's fucking birdshot.
Yeah.
But then there's some courses like, remember the one where they were shooting?
They rolled it across the ground.
Yeah.
Rabbits.
Yeah.
They had it set up sideways and there was a ramp on the ground.
And so the disc just like goes super fast and then ramps up in the air super quick.
And then it's a lot.
I like, I just haven't done it much.
It is a blast.
Once it clicks though, it is once it clicks, you'll just always hit those clays.
You're like, Oh, there it is.
Okay.
Now I understand this body mechanics at the clay shoot I did for a Texas gun rights toward
the very end.
Like I started the lock in it.
Like you start.
You start to get that.
You're like, Oh shit, I know what I'm doing now.
I went for four for four on a couple of them.
Yeah.
Like, okay.
And you get to shoot some machine guns though.
That's.
That'd be a lot of fun.
I'd, I'd be down to do that.
You ever shot full auto?
Yes.
I shot a full auto AUG at a.
Good choice.
At X-Cal.
It was a gun range in Northern Virginia.
I actually think, I think I know that one.
It's a, all of downstairs is a gun range.
All of upstairs is a gym.
So it's pretty cool.
That's dope.
And then now.
They're, they're opening like a masculine as fuck.
Oh, I just got done doing chest.
I want to rip some lead.
And they also, they also have like a supercar meetup every Sunday there as well.
No, I think it's Saturday.
It's a Saturday, Sunday.
They do supercar meetups there.
That's my heaven.
If they had a bar.
I'm like, I thought I would not.
Yeah.
A bar and you're in heaven.
They have a bar.
Yeah.
They have a bar.
You're shitting me.
Yeah.
They have a bar upstairs.
Dude.
They have like a membership only bar that you pay and then you can kind of socialize.
Where's this at?
Northern Virginia.
Northern Virginia.
It's in Ashburn, Virginia, specifically.
Gem supercars, bar and a gun range.
Yeah.
Now they just need like.
All in the same spot.
An apartment built onto the side.
Well, it's not in the same building.
I mean, there's our apartments all around.
It's in this new section called One Loudon.
So, yeah.
I need to check that place out.
It's a pretty cool area.
I might have to be spending some time in that area.
Yeah, I know.
Relatively soon.
So I kind of want to check out some of the local, local flavor.
Well, that'd be fun.
Wait, so you started making content at 28.
What videos did you start making?
Minecraft.
Oh, hell yeah.
Okay.
Yeah, I started as a gaming YouTuber.
Minecraft, CSGO, and Rust.
Oh, hell yeah.
I used to make CSGO funny moments videos.
Yeah, same.
And it was like, it was like Battlefield and CSGO is what I kind of started my channel on.
And then Arma 3.
Funny compilation videos.
Yeah.
It's funny seeing your, your original streams too, where you were in the full like SWAT loadout
while you were playing them.
Oh yeah.
I'd play Rainbow Six Siege in my SWAT loadout.
That's so sick.
That I had from the police department.
That's so sick.
They didn't have like plates back then.
You're just wearing this big Kevlar bullshit.
And we had plates, but we were too poor to buy them for the department.
Seriously?
Your SWAT guys didn't have plates?
No.
Jesus Christ.
It was just this big piece of fucking, like, there's a steel plate in there, dude.
Oh.
Oh yeah.
It's like literal steel.
The big SWAT ones with the shoulders and like a steel plate.
It was, yeah, it was nasty.
A lot of people don't realize how little money gets distributed to police departments, like
especially local.
I know a lot were like, oh, I get to fire 50 rounds a year.
And you're like, wait, that's how much you get to train with?
That was Washington, Seattle area.
They're like, yeah, we get 50 to maybe 200 rounds a year of training ammunition.
Yeah.
Otherwise you have to do it on your own time.
For us, like, you got to qualify once a year.
Yeah.
Wow.
Which is shoot a target from five yards three times, shoot a target from 10 yards two times.
It's like, oh, I got to shoot 10 bullets this year.
Not stress.
The CCW requirements for most states is more than that.
Yeah.
Yeah.
There's no, and it's not under stress or dirt.
Like you're just like, oh, I got one, two, three.
So then there's no training for, oh, I am stressed out or I'm out of breath.
They don't do any of that training.
And then it's, well, last time I shot was a year ago with my 10 rounds to qualify and
that was it.
And then it's like, okay, now you're in a very high stress situation.
You're like rounds kicking everywhere.
That's why, that's why, like when I was on patrol,
just having a SWAT dude or a veteran dude with me.
Yeah.
Smart.
They're not going to freak the fuck out as soon as adrenaline hits.
You're like, oh, and then yeah, Cody went to, what was your first big video that popped
off?
Cause you had your viral moment with, uh, with a squirt squirt.
Yeah.
Uh, one of my buddies was driving really fast through residential neighborhood and the local
news was like, oh, well this cop is wrong.
He shouldn't be driving.
That fast.
But it turned out it was like to a home invasion with a stabbing in process.
Right.
Yeah.
And so he like, he, he was being careful about it.
Like we're pretty highly trained when it comes to vehicles.
And, uh, I made a video that got a hundred thousand views about that.
And I was like, dude, he was driving to fucking, someone was being murdered at this house and
the news redacted everything and changed their statements and stuff.
That's good.
That's how you kind of got into like the whole body cam.
I was just, I was just looking out for one of my friends at the time.
Just setting the record straight.
Yeah.
Setting the record straight.
And then I started setting the record straight for all of these shootings that were happening.
Like everything that was happening because 99% of the time cops don't just go out and
shoot people for no fucking reason.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Just started lead, like just started doing that constantly and blew up, man.
It's awesome.
The Eddie Gallagher one's the one I remember the most because I remember reading that I
was still in LA.
Your article came out, I forget how long after that, but it was people sending it to me.
Look at this shit bagger.
Hey, he killed me.
He killed like murdered this kid, blah, blah, blah.
And I was reading, I was like, this is just insubordination.
This is younger guys or guys under him that are pissed off.
They don't like their leadership and they're trying to now railroad this guy.
Sure shit.
It's exactly what happened.
Because how old was the kid in the Eddie Gallagher thing?
16, 17.
Yeah.
And he was ISIS.
Like it was like a fucking rifle.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They were in like an 18 hour firefight with this.
And they just.
They just happened to find a kid.
Whoa.
Yeah.
But it was like.
I say kid.
They happened to find, found someone.
For ISIS, that's middle age.
Yeah.
Right.
Especially at that time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So it was, this was a Navy SEAL sniper and then you read it and it is, oh, well, the
guys that were against him, oh, he was committing war crimes.
He's a terrible human, bad leader.
And it was only two, I think.
And then you read it and they're like, yeah, we were messing with his optics to un-zero
every time.
Every minute.
I was like, what the fuck you weren't.
I would know immediately if my guys were with my gun after day two of me zeroing in,
it's off again.
I'm like, huh, that's weird.
I'm a, as a sniper, you're going to be accountable for your gun and how accurate it is every
time you pull the trigger.
You're like, well, that's way off.
As far as pranks go, or I'm going to fuck with this guy.
That's a wild thing to do.
Hey, let me with my own overwatch because, oh, he is being, he's just targeting civilians.
That's why we did it.
And then come to find out.
They did the prosecution is the one that delivered the malware.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was just the craziest thing.
One of those, um, was a jag officers.
He was trying to make a career for himself and he delivered malware to the defense, to
Eddie Gallagher's defense that like got into their computer and they could see all their
shit.
Yeah.
And it was a, it was a wild ass case.
Wow.
They dropped everything.
Cause it was like, Hey, malware.
It's like, yes, they were told.
They were told we need to hammer this guy to set exam.
It was a Navy seal.
So we have to hammer him.
It doesn't matter if you're making stuff up.
We'll, we'll erase it.
We'll figure it out.
Look, now we have, we're tracking everything they say illegally.
Now, now is, is that a fruit of the poison tree thing because it was illegally obtained
or like, how did that?
Yeah, that would be if, if, yeah, if they would have obtained it that way, that's fruit
of the poisonous tree.
You couldn't have used it even if it was bad.
And then I think they were doing all sorts of gnarly shit.
I haven't revisited the case in years, but there's like, if you guys read up on the case,
like,
the defense was doing a bunch of nasty shit primarily because the prosecution, or yeah,
excuse me, the prosecution was doing a bunch of gnarly shit.
My bad.
Because the, like the baby man who was trying to advance his career in JAG, that he's the
one that, you got to look at him.
Yeah.
He was the one that like put, like was working on, did the malware.
I'm pretty sure.
Yeah.
It's there's, there's so much in that case.
The defense came in like, Hey, look, we caught the, like they came in and he was like, we
caught your fucking malware.
You're trying to track us.
Oh.
And then there were, that's when it got dismissed.
Everything instantly was like, what the fuck is this real?
He's like, no, but nothing happened against the, um, prosecution team.
Like no one got in trouble for everything they did.
I get it.
Baby guy.
Not a single thing happened to that guy or anyone on JAG, even though they came to find
out they did a bunch of illegal shit.
Oh, he did.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'm reading, I'm looking at the article now.
They treated Eddie unfairly too.
They held him in jail.
for months and months and months awaiting trial,
without it it's like he's like i'm not a flight risk like there's like i don't know why i'm here
and they just treated him like shit for several months it was it's a it's a weird case man
because i was following it from the beginning i was waiting for a little bit to come out but
the whole time i'm like dad this just doesn't add up and they started saying you know the
prosecution was doing the malware and all this crazy shit it's it's a super interesting case
eddie's got a book about it that's really good too yeah they took didn't they take away his
tridents and they get reinstated or trying to remember dude i haven't i haven't i did this
video on that like six years ago and i've made a thousand since then i'm trying to remember it
getting the try it tried and taken like that's a big deal yeah it was just really messed up
especially like eddie's a good dude especially when you meet him you're like and you help like
he was very thankful for that video you did i remember watching videos like holy shit yeah this
is spot on what i was thinking was the issue i just dug deeper than the because the media was
like child killing murder
navy seal on trial and i'm like you know war crimes happen but i don't know if this guy did
it and i was like i was just started digging into it and his book i think it's called man in the
arena yes that tracks it's pretty good which reference to a great quote yeah that's the man
in the arena what's i want to say it's teddy roosevelt i don't know shit yeah basically like
you know paraphrasing a very very eloquent quote is uh it doesn't matter the people that are
talking shit from the audience
like what matters is the man in the arena doing things not the people talking about how the man
doing things could have done things better yeah but the the man who's actually pushing forward
and doing stuff good very very good quote so what was your what was your first video that
really popped off where you're like oh shit okay here is i can do this i got this there was a
handful uh so it was first it was like a funny moments video i think uh i did for like just
video games that probably got 100k and that's when i started hammering out like funny moments
content and ironically that's when i decided to drop out of high school like an idiot um because
i was like i think i got to like yeah about three grand a month at that time and i was like this is
this is crazy the world is mine make a living off of youtube this is so sick and i dropped out senior
year as well so i was big idiot but uh in that close in yeah no in in my skype group i had a
bunch of other friends who also just dropped out um of high school so we were just like hey let's do it
and then youtube got really hard and i quickly realized oh this is really hard um what is it my
three three grand a month went to what year was this 2015 oh right during almost oh yeah no that
came later so i got really humbled by adpocalypse later on um but first i got humbled just because
of a massive skill issue and i couldn't put out enough videos to make enough money if they weren't
going viral not because a certain swedish guy said a certain word that happened later on so so later
on that that became a problem for me as well um but uh what a fucking what now budes so so first
uh did that uh then suddenly the gaming career thing was way harder and most of my money was
coming in from sponsorships at the time so i was taking everything i was in like hyper x at the
time i think was one of my main sponsors then and i was through an e-sport program and i was
in an e-sports organization so i went the e-sports route first so i joined this e-sports organization
called bx3 um as a content creator revenue and and they started giving me brand deals left and
right and it kind of worked and i could live off of this until i couldn't uh so then i saw
a lot of people i started blowing up off of making commentary videos while they were
playing video games so i was like oh this is a super easy pivot for me i already have a video
game audience i can just talk about stuff that's happening while playing video games leafy
for example yeah so leafy uh pyro also was really early on it and like yeah they started popping
off and at the time they probably had like 100 200k subs and it was like oh shit that's probably
the new wave and at the time i think i had like 40 000 subs 30 to 40 000 somewhere around there
um so i went all in on that and then i did this video on i think it was like phantom lord uh
with his csgo shuffle thing where he was like rigging gambling results for himself
to then react big on twitch yeah so he's doing that for a bit so that that was probably
a three or four hundred thousand view video which was really big for me at the time
um but i still couldn't make the youtube thing work so then i became a janitor uh because i
already dropped out of high school so then my job opportunities was like okay do i want to
work at mcdonald's a 7-eleven there's not too much else then i found this uh nighttime job
so it was like um not an albemarle freddy fazbear's pizza
pretty much but instead of it it was uh what's it called it's called a night watch guy yeah i know
so essentially i just cleaned floors uh from like 11 at night to midnight until basically like five
to seven in the morning depending on when i got done um and then my last round was like picking
up cigarette buds and stuff like that out in front at like six or seven in the morning and
i always had beef with this homeless guy who was there because same fucking dude it was literally
the same guy every single time and he would always smoke cigarettes
they choose us we don't choose them man you gotta catch them all down he kept throwing cigarettes
down uh like just where i had to pick them up essentially on the property of the the place i
was working for so i kept on having to pick up his fucking cigarettes every single morning so
one day i asked him i was like can you like not throw your cigarettes here and he was holding he
was drinking vodka at the time out of a bottle and he went like in blue top plastic bottle it was a
no it was not plastic it was glass and then i know it was glass because i had
to clean it up it's a fancy hobo you had a sophisticated so so what happened was i asked
him can you can you please stop throwing cigarettes down and then he threw a cigarette down and i was
like okay and at the time i was like 17 um so you put antifreeze in a glass sweet tea told him he
got 30 million dollars no i was just like i was like absolutely not going to fight with a homeless
guy about it i was just like can you please not do that uh and then he was like well
i'm employing you and i'm like what and he was like i'm giving you your job and i'm like come on
dude i was like can you just please not do it it's a bullshit answer yeah no exactly well he was drunk
he was homeless i don't know and then he decided to excuses excuses he literally was like i got i
got something for you to clean up then he threw the glass bottle of vodka towards me and it just
shattered on the sidewalk in front of it of course on the property i had to clean up on
so i remember just staring at him staring at the mess and going like all right i
gotta go downstairs to the janitor's closet get the freaking broom and sweeper and start that was
that extended my work day by half an hour so that really sucked and that heavily motivated
to go home and keep making youtube videos because my life can't be that so we just know this is
where we find out that uh your your new passion is you just dexter homeless people right exactly
right now just making commentary videos online and then thankfully uh a few started
popping off and i ended up moving to england with a few other youtube creators commentary
youtube creators and we lived in like two different homes over about a year uh and then i went to la
for three months i was not a fan of it i also went broke there so i wasn't making a lot on youtube at
the point and la is very expensive um so then went back to england lived in england for a couple more
months and then moved back to then no lived in england for a couple more months and then i made
this little tay video that like
completely changed my life forever um because it got like eight million views in a week that's a
little asian girl with the money right yeah now she's relevant again i forgot about that oh my god
that's the weird one that's the super yeah it's odd didn't she do some crazy shit like faking
dying or yeah she faked her death uh she's blaming on her stepfather i don't know i mean
what i don't buy it but it is what it is anyway it was just like it was just this funny case on
this 13 year old like flexing saying she's so rich look at this penthouse i'm in all that and
then we find out that her mom is a vancouver real estate agent and she's just flexing the homes that
her mom is showing so she's having open showings and flexing these condos so i made a video kind
of laughing at that that got like seven or eight million views and i was like whoa now we went from
the the 20k to 30k view average to where i could barely make my payments every month to like oh
eight eight million views and uh like just a
few days and then i made a follow-up video that got another eight million view video on it so
i went from getting like you know between 800 000 views a month to maybe 1.5 million views a month
to suddenly in a month i think i got like 26 or 27 years that month god so that was kind of like the
oh my life has changed forever now throw away video game content
yeah so but that was after i kind of switched to commentary so i so first it was like video
game commentary that was like a few like a year or so before that and then i started doing
the face cam stuff to kind of differentiate myself more and then build a brand a little bit correct
and that's when i started building the whole brand of like i want to be a low budget talk show because
like all the mainstream talk shows are not relatable at all that's kind of where that's
my lane i want to be in and that's kind of like why i started the like like the freaking mat uh
that i have behind me it's like the streets i was raised on because every high-end talk show um they
have like a skyline like an expensive la skyline or new york city skyline behind them and i was like
what's something nostalgic i'm from lillehammer norway that's not any no one can relate to that
so i was like i want something that's relatable that i was also raised on
To put up behind me and those would be like yeah my skyline
So that's kind of why I started doing those mats which with the man up behind me you actually brought yeah
No, I brought a few of them because yeah, we did the Texas you guys are gonna laugh at the Texas one
It's actually good. I was like our audience is gonna love this
Yes, we did we just dropped the Texas collection
Put it right here. Oh, you noticed
Something and my designer thought this was hilarious
San Antonio Fort Worth Dallas El Paso a highway with no mention of missing off
My designer thought the highway was more important than Austin on it. Oh, it is it is. Yeah
He thought it was hilarious. I was like, okay
Yeah, okay
Also, I love how San Antonio has a beach
We're not from Texas. Yeah, but no, I'm glad you skipped Austin. Oh, yeah, Houston - you have everything but we have so we negotiated
So I was like, okay because you really want to release this version of it
I was like, I will release it for a few months and then I will replace it with an actual
More correct one with all the right cities on it. Dallas is a top right hand. Yeah, and like Dallas and Fort Worth are farther apart
Than San Antonio Houston. All right, look at that. I love it
This this is like so far
So you got really driving this top in reality. It's like a 15-minute
It's so good. Sorry, we're just sitting here shitting on your
Naked people roaming the road
For Austin would be like what are they doing?
Oh, those are the homeless
Our problem is we want to actually like the whole thing is like you need to fit like a toy car on it, right?
Right, so it really if we want a two-lane it takes up a lot of space
Because we want it to actually be usable if kids want to play with them
So that's what I know why the spacing gets a little off
We're like for example Dallas for work. We want a road between it then suddenly they get parted by a lot, right?
We're gonna put that up and then you got mouse pads
And this is this is your guys. Oh, yeah. There you go. That's it. That's a gift. Oh
As a you look look
This is massive
What I do, I love it where you can like, oh you'll sit down. We'll fucking roll this bitch up
So look at her can't get over the wall
Trying to cross the border
Your artist is just trolling
There's a Mexican riding an ox
I just like Mexico has nothing
There's not a city in Mexico. It's just it's dirt and two Mexicans
It also do mouse pads because like we realize it like when I started I was also like not everyone needs
Large like our map like that. So we ended up also since it's called Mad City. We started making mouse
and then we
Yeah, no, we started making mouse pads that I actually wanted to use
So this is like our largest one
This is our actually

They're braided as well. So they actually don't flake up
They're just

Podcast Summary
Key Points:
Progressive’s Name Your Price tool allows users to input their desired budget and shows tailored insurance options without guesswork or hidden costs.
The tool simplifies car insurance shopping by focusing on personal needs and family-specific coverage, reducing stress and confusion.
Vitaly, a streamer, is currently in legal trouble in the Philippines for live-streaming the theft of a motorcycle and other acts, with his freedom hanging on whether he is formally charged.
The Philippines has strict penalties for auto theft, with up to 20 years in prison, and the case has drawn public attention due to political backlash and media coverage.
Video content created by the speaker about Vitaly’s actions was inadvertently used as evidence in the arrest report, highlighting how online content can have real-world legal consequences.
AI-generated content, such as deep fakes and videos from tools like Sora, is becoming increasingly realistic and raises ethical and legal concerns about authenticity and misinformation.
Wearable cameras and bodycams are becoming more widespread, increasing the volume of real-time footage that could be used in investigations or public scrutiny.
The rise of AI and social media has created a dangerous environment where reckless or illegal behavior is amplified, leading to legal repercussions, public scrutiny, and a blurred line between reality and generated content.
Summary:
The transcript blends two main narratives: one about car insurance accessibility through Progressive’s Name Your Price tool, which empowers users to find affordable, personalized coverage without stress or confusion; and another about the escalating legal and social consequences of online streamers’ reckless behavior, particularly Vitaly’s live-streamed thefts in the Philippines. Vitaly’s case illustrates how livestreaming illegal acts can lead to serious criminal charges, with the Philippines enforcing harsh penalties for auto theft and using online content as evidence. The speaker reflects on how their own video coverage of Vitaly’s actions was mistakenly cited in official reports, highlighting the real-world impact of internet content.
The discussion also expands into broader societal issues, such as AI-generated content becoming indistinguishable from reality, raising fears about misinformation, deep fakes, and legal accountability. Wearable technology and bodycams are noted as increasing surveillance and content volume, potentially flooding public discourse with unverified or illegal interactions. The narrative concludes with a warning about the dangers of unchecked digital freedom—where seemingly harmless online behavior can spiral into serious legal and ethical consequences, both in foreign countries and in digital spaces.
The tone is critical, emphasizing how technology and social media platforms can amplify risk, making the line between entertainment and crime dangerously thin.
