Why Nikko Ortiz Will Never Fly Again | Unsubscribe Podcast Ep 235
2h 6m 21s
The Unsubscribe podcast team announces the launch of two new Echelon energy drink flavors—Cherry Lime Landmine and Atomic Cola—with 100mg of caffeine per can. To incentivize early adoption, the first 2,500 subscribers receive a 30% discount, free shipping, and exclusive gifts including custom patches, a challenge coin, and a free month of Pepperbox. All buyers get a golden ticket for VIP access to a live show, with subscribers receiving double entries. A one-time purchase option is available at $3 per can with a 10% discount using code UNSUB. The team also shares a satirical and critical look at financial systems, including the dangers of Buy Now, Pay Later services like Klarna, which create hundreds of individual credit lines and inflate prices. They highlight how dynamic pricing, digital tags, and data tracking manipulate consumer costs and behavior. Additionally, they promote Cash App as a secure and accessible financial tool, offering a $10 bonus to users who refer friends using code UNSUB10. The episode blends humor, personal anecdotes, and deep dives into consumer culture, technology, and finance, reinforcing themes of transparency, personal responsibility, and financial literacy. The discussion underscores how modern systems can exploit consumer behavior, especially among those with limited financial understanding.
Imagine the overpenetration on a Somali pirate.
Piece of paper.
Yeah, it's plywood.
I just don't want to fall out the sky for two minutes knowing I'm gonna f***ing die.
Ah!
State-mandated homosexuality.
No, no, no!
King of the cobs, bro.
Dawn to me.
God, I wish you guys weren't all retarded.
Guys, I think we're done here today.
Um. F***!
Say hi to Eli.
Hi, he's racially ambiguous.
Brandon, his hair is f***ing fabulous.
Don't I?
A dark, joked disposition.
And there's a fat electrician.
Welcome to Unsubscribe.
ADD break.
We got some f***ing news.
After we collabed with Echelon on the Army's 250th birthday killer apple limited edition flavor with Unsub,
we decided that we really liked the company, so we bought in.
We killed Eric.
Hostile takeover.
We worked for months on all of these flavors, too.
Yeah, so we're launching two new flavors.
Each of them have 100 milligrams of caffeine apiece.
And we're coming out with Cherry Lime Landmine.
And then Brandon has his famous mixer, Atomic Cola, which goes great with Jack, I'm told.
That is, of course, my drink of choice.
And now I get to be hydrated and drunk.
And energized.
Now, like everything, when we launch a company or start a new business,
we try to do as much as possible for all of you.
No exception.
So, what do you buy?
A can?
In the case of the new Echelon flavors, they are normally going to be $3 a can or $36 a case.
But for the first 2,500 people that sign up for a subscription getting two cases,
not only are you going to get free shipping, which shipping cases of energy drinks is expensive,
you're also going to get a huge discount.
And those are going to cost $58.30.
You are saving 30% overall if you're the first 2,500 to purchase.
You get that discount forever as long as you keep your subscription active.
You are constantly going to get free shipping and a huge discount.
If you're not one of the first 2,500 people, we're going to keep the sale going for 48 hours.
Those people are going to get it for $61.50 plus free shipping.
That's 25% savings.
And again, that's for the lifetime of your subscription.
And if you don't like doing subscriptions or you don't like saving money for whatever reason,
you can still do a one-time order.
They're still going to be $3 a can.
You order a whole case.
But if you use code UNSUB, you're going to save 10%.
What's that code, Cody?
UNSUB.
The code is UNSUB.
The code is UNSUB.
First 2,500 people are getting something amazing, but everyone purchasing this weekend is in or to win one of these.
What is that, Eli?
I don't know.
It's gold.
Nick, what is this?
It's a ticket.
It says golden ticket.
This golden ticket grants you VIP access to one upcoming unsubscribed show.
And this ticket happens to be $69.
Everybody that makes a purchase, no matter what it is, is going to get one entry.
But if you do a subscription pack, you're also going to get an additional entry.
So that counts as two.
You're getting two entries.
If you subscribe, we're going to fly you out to come hang out at an UNSUB live show.
They are debaucherous.
Yes.
I'm going to say the N-word.
I hope not.
Everyone's going to get a swag pack.
But if you are the lucky first 2,500, you get a couple more cool things.
Custom Echelon Challenge Coin.
Custom Echelon Patches.
And a Pepperbox badge and a free month of Pepperbox.
If you are part of the first 48, you still get the free month of Pepperbox, the Pepperbox emoji, the Pepperbox badge, and also the patch.
Seriously, thank you for. Letting us have this possibility to do something like this.
And thank you, Echelon, for giving us a chance to do something like this.
Without all of you, none of this would be possible.
We worked for you at the end of the day, and we are so fucking thankful for this opportunity.
Let's go ahead and go back to the episode before Eli cries.
Community!
Community!
Community!
Oh, my God!
We haven't been recording this whole time.
No.
We just did two hours.
I know.
I made a mistake.
Just play it off like we haven't been recording the entire time.
All right.
Ready?
Three, two, one.
Ooh.
Ooh.
What's that?
Wait, I can't say it.
Who's going to start it this time?
Hi, everyone.
Unsubscribe podcast here.
I'm joined today by Eli DoubleTab, Nick the Fat Electrician, myself, Brandon Herrera, and Nico Ortiz.
Hi.
Our beautiful boys.
What's up, bitches?
What, Nick?
You haven't been here like 100 episodes, fuckhead.
I know.
I've been here for a long time.
We've been living in different places, but I live here now, so we're good.
Multiple shot shows in between unsub appearances is unacceptable.
I showed up.
I just wasn't on camera.
I supported still.
You did.
Yeah.
It's been a long time, though.
That's right.
Look it in.
It's been a long. Nico ain't a fan of the flying the planes.
Uh-uh.
I forgot about that.
Nah, hell nah.
Nico hates it.
Nah, hell nah.
Why do you think he drove his car here?
Because I figured he needed his car.
No.
That, too.
But yes.
Yes.
I was like, you know what?
I'll just drive here.
It's better.
Left my other car here for like God knows how f***ing long, but yeah.
No flying.
No thanks.
I'm good.
I always forget that, and then I remember.
I'm like, oh yeah, that's why he never visits.
It's the death.
I'm like, I'm good.
I don't need to f***ing fly anywhere ever again anymore.
I'll just stay at my house at this point, but now you guys are like a 30-minute drive
away, so this is fantastic.
And we made you fly anyways.
We drove him to San Antonio Airport.
I got an Uber picking you up helicopter-like.
Fly crazy.
Pretty much.
Did helicopters walk with you?
No.
Isn't that weird?
I love helicopters.
I think it's so much better and funner.
And more dangerous.
Yeah.
The thing that beats up air in order to stay floating.
Dude.
Okay.
You know what the main thing probably is?
I just don't want to fall out the sky for two minutes knowing I'm going to f***ing die.
Ah!
F***!
Come on!
Like, no.
It's, oh shit, what the f***?
Done.
Like, that's it.
That's nice.
You're already giving the box a f***ing panic attack.
I know.
It's like, yo, this guy's really loud.
This is why he hasn't been here in a while.
But, yeah.
If he was screaming the entire time, I'd be so annoyed.
I'd be like, dude, we're going to die.
Please.
My last two minutes, I don't want to hear you screaming at the top of your f***ing
I'd be like, then fix the f***ing plane, dude.
Like, I'm going to make sure you were the first person on this plane to die.
And people are like, oh, well, if you're that worried, you can, like, go and get, like,
you know, skydiving license.
And I'm like, that's great.
But if you go through TSA with that thing, one, I'm going to look like a terrorist.
Two, I can do that.
But I don't know how to repack a chute.
I don't want to repack a chute.
And they can go through it.
Hold on, wait.
Nico walks in through TSA.
Hold on, stop.
Did f***ing D.B. Cooper give you advice?
I was trying to do it.
You took my f***ing joke.
Who the f*** is telling you all of your nerve is just pack a parachute as you're carrying it on?
Because then I won't be afraid to get on the plane, Nick.
Well, I understand where you're coming from.
I'm saying what psychopath gave you that advice?
It was actually my idea, and then everyone agreed with me, okay?
Did they agree with you before or after they found out that, like,
even D.B. Cooper probably didn't survive jumping out of a f***ing commercial airliner with a parachute?
At least I have an option.
I just like during this plane wrecking, you're going to be like,
okay, we'll just unbuckle.
We'll walk to the back.
It's going to be smooth sailing.
We'll not violet turbulent smashed around.
You're going to open that back door and be like, okay.
And then you're going to hit the f***ing wing, die.
Nothing to the engine.
I jump out, hit the wing.
My shoe just f***ing flaps up, and I'm like, oh, god damn it.
Now you're just dragged out.
You're caught on the wing.
I'm just hitting the plane.
Just flaps.
The ironic part is that the plane would have been fine until his body hit the f***ing wing.
They're like, oh, we regained stability.
Oh, god.
Oh, shit.
No, my plan is, I was like, you know what?
Maybe I'll buy, like, a nice little plane, and then I'll just have parachutes on it, and then,
I won't give a s***.
That's a good idea.
No, they don't like my idea.
Okay, I'm going to go f*** myself.
It's a great idea, Dingo.
It's a great idea.
Thanks.
I will pay money to try to see you bring a parachute in as your carry-on.
Well, so I've thought about this.
Is that allowed?
Yes, it is.
Yeah, you get a free cavity search with every f***ing one.
Pretty much.
The problem is that you can do that, but the TSA can open the chute, they can inspect it,
and do all that.
And I was like, well, if you hate me, and you want to f***ing kill me, and you, like,
take little scissors and do whatever to me, like, I don't want to repack it in the airport
either.
I don't even know if I could.
That would be f***ing hilarious.
What did you do to the TSA?
Pay no attention to the man repacking his parachute in the middle of the f***ing terminal.
Seriously.
Now, imagine, oh, something worse.
Imagine he's repacking the chute, and you realize he's in your, on your flight.
That's how you get rid of the terrorists on the flight.
They're like, oh, he's got this one.
I'll pick a different one.
I'd just be terrified.
I'd be terrified seeing you.
You're on the phone, getting mad, trying to repack this, and as an outsider that doesn't
know you, they're just like, he's f***ing all over the place.
This guy's yelling, and then quiet and smiling, and then doing a weird laugh, and then a happy
laugh.
What?
It's the Uno reverse card.
An Arab guy sees a white dude on his flight, and changes flights.
Oh, hell no.
He's like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
But yeah, no.
I'm good on the flight.
He's on to us.
Avoid at all costs.
What's up?
He's on to us.
Well, he has it.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
No, I don't enjoy flying.
It's just not for me.
I tend to care less and less for flying every single time I fly, and the end result is just,
I end up getting just disgustingly bad turbulence on every flight I end up due taking, and I'm
like, everything I've been through in my entire life, I refuse to go due to a plane going
down, of all things.
If I was going to war on a plane, and the shit went down.
like whatever
I'm doing something
with purpose
but like
I wanna go on podcasts
It's going to be so fun.
I'm going to get.
No, it's going to really piss me off.
We're not going to have cool deaths like plane crashes.
I already know.
Like, we do some pretty cool shit.
Karma, the way, whatever.
The balance of the universe.
We're going to go out doing something fucking dumb and not cool.
I'm good with that.
Slipping on an ice cube.
Car wreck.
Sober.
Sober car wreck.
Sober car wreck.
I love how that makes it less cool.
Tell me it doesn't.
Nico, what is your least favorite thing about flying?
Other than just the crashing.
I'm sober.
Think about it.
You're in a metal tin can, tens of thousands of feet in the sky,
zero control, and you don't know the pilots.
At least in the military, when you, like, do half of these things,
you chit chat.
They're your brothers in arms, and you, like, trust them.
And I'm like, you know what?
Fuck it, dude.
If this bitch goes down, like, we're doing it together.
I don't know any of these fucking people.
I had to pay for this fucking seat.
I don't like it.
The DEI hires at Delta Air.
The airlines are not going to be the thing that takes me out.
No, I just, it makes me uncomfortable.
I just, I hate it.
And then, like, I always end up getting nasty turbulence,
and I'm like, oh, fuck!
Like, every time.
And I'm, like, just staring out the window, and I'm like, please.
When you say turbulence, do you mean, like, nausea?
I'm talking about my ass cheeks are literally coming off of this seat
slightly and going back down.
I'm basically, like, riding the plane at this point.
So, yeah.
Yeah.
Like, a little, foo, foo, foo.
But it's devastating.
Those big ones are like, woom, woom.
Yes.
Every single time I fly.
And it was like, it fucks with my head,
because every single time I get on a plane, they're like,
hey, guys, this is the pilot.
Flight attendants, please take your seat.
We are not going to be doing, I paid for first class,
so I can get drunk and, like, kind of forget.
We are not going to be doing drink a bottle service,
because it's going to get very bumpy.
But once we get past this very bad spot,
we will start the drink service.
I'm like, totally defeats the purpose of the whole thing.
Wrong order there, pal.
Yeah, wrong order, dude.
But luckily, now I just get shit-faced before I get on the plane.
There you go.
Still doesn't help that much.
I'm just thinking of you doing the Nico scream directly to my right.
I'm like, Nico, for fuck's sake, we haven't taken off yet.
Nico, they're asking us to buckle up.
Please chill the fuck out.
That's what I was saying.
The next time you guys fly somewhere, I'll go,
and you guys can see what it's like flying with Nico.
It'll be great.
I'm just nervous.
I'm going to be extremely so tense.
I'm just going to be mad the whole time and frustrated.
Did you just see a Burger King hat coming out?
It's like, no, no, no.
Nico, no.
I know the easy way off this flight.
Yeah, I'm going to be a problem.
Take it off.
Turn back around.
He's already got a second one on.
What's going on?
Removing hats.
We don't know where they're coming from.
We're getting kicked off this fucking plane.
I bought a 10-pack of Burger King crowns for the Unsub Live Tour last time,
and I fucking forgot to bring them.
What a fucking insult to Burger King.
They would have gave it to you for free if you ordered food.
You're like, I don't want your food.
I'll just pay for them.
I don't.
But it was before they started rolling it back out again.
I just went on eBay and bought a 10-pack.
Of course you did.
It was like $15, whatever.
Loves them 10-packs.
It's so good.
Just a dangerous game.
Listen, my goals are beyond your understanding.
What's funny is the people that sell that on eBay have to know.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Like Halloween, they probably make a fucking killing.
Man, Hall Hitler, 69, 69.
Five stars.
The Halloween costume, it's just the white shirt, the Burger King crown,
and the teardrop tattoo.
50,000 orders, five stars.
What?
They're all very positive.
Yeah.
Love my hat.
Very durable.
Take it on every flight with me.
I love it.
Instant reply.
Shipped instantly.
Very nice card on the inside.
You can feel the hate when you take it out of the box.
Oh, God.
And it's like, oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
It's like just a one-star review.
Like, didn't get my order.
Seller, very rude.
Noel Silverstein.
I like that.
Oh, yeah.
Nick doesn't like talking about, I remember from the one last time.
And I was like, oh, because they're black.
What?
That is probably one of my favorite episodes.
They spent 45 minutes trying to paint me as a racist.
It was miserable.
Just wait till somebody.
I forgot about that.
I was like, oh, because they're black.
Somebody spent $13 million.
I've heard Eli laugh, I think, ever.
And it just makes me feel so.
Somebody spent $13 million trying to paint me as a racist.
So, you know, it works out.
I think we were like, we had already filmed one or two podcasts that day, got drunk during
the podcast, went to the bar for two hours, and then came back.
And for some reason, I was like, we're recording again.
Yeah.
That was one.
It's like, we're doing another podcast.
Like, we were drunk as shit over there.
I think it's like, okay, let's go.
Did that podcast ever come out?
Yes.
Oh, it did.
It's aggressive.
Oh, man.
It was just the three of us.
I remember the one we filmed, Shithouse, the other, like, a couple months back that there's
no way that podcast has seen the light of day.
Do we still have that footage?
Oh, yeah.
I just want the snippet of the 40s are here.
That's all I want.
I want to make that my ringtone.
We had to scrub through it.
Was Rich there, too?
Yeah.
Oh, God.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That tracks, actually.
We door dashed 40s.
It was me, you, Eli, Rich, and Connor.
Yep.
That was the other one.
God.
I spent 45 minutes trying to tell a story.
So the wall, the stone wall, is up dead high.
Fucking God dang it.
God dang it.
I think through all of our years in business on the internet, we've all used Shopify.
I've used it for merch and my skate shop and a couple other businesses.
I will actually agree 100% on that.
Everything we do is run through Shopify.
Even bunkers run through Shopify.
Our shoes, which is a separate company, is run through Shopify, and they talk together
because of Shopify.
Shopify runs the world.
Did you know Shopify will actually help you design a website also, Cody?
I know I didn't know about starting an online store when I started my career online.
Shopify just made it super, super easy for my dumb.
Brandon, what happens if people haven't heard about my brand, though?
That's actually easy, Eli.
Shopify helps you find your customers with easy-to-use email and social media campaigns.
Snap, Cody.
What happens if I get stuck?
Shopify is always around to share advice with their award-winning 24/7 customer service.
That's support, bro. You got my back.
And your front.
Shopify helps millions of businesses around the world and 10% of all e-commerce in the U.S.
From household names like Mattel or Gymshark to new brands just getting started.
Unsub Shoes. Unsub Merch. Bunker.
No, we've all been doing this for over a decade, and Shopify is the easiest e-commerce platform we've ever used.
I think every single one of us has used Shopify at one point.
I think all our businesses right now are using Shopify.
No, except mine, but that's because it's. Done.
Can't do that.
Just one of them can't.

Mr. Nika, what have you been up to, my friend?
You just moved to Texas.
I did.
Quite the big move.
Congratulations.
I just been. Thanks.
It's great to be here.
It's so much fun.
Much better than like LA and Las Vegas, like by far.
And just the people in general aren't complete pieces of shit.
So, you know, that's really nice as well.
But yeah, I think it's funny because me and Eli were talking one day and you guys are
always also welcoming and stuff like, oh, we love seeing you, man.
You got to come out here.
And I'm like, fuck that bitch.
I'm getting on a plane.
And then Eli was like, yeah, dude, we miss you.
And I was like, well, my lease is coming up.
You moved to avoid a plane flight.
Yeah.
Dedication.
I'm like, they always want me to fucking hang out.
I'm touched.
Pretty much.
And then I was like, you know what?
It'd be so funny if like I just buy a house out there and then not tell anybody until
I move out there.
When me and you were talking, I literally hadn't told anybody, but randomly me and you
were talking previously and you were like, I was like, hey, what's new, dude?
We're catching up, blah, blah, blah.
And like three hours later, I just moved out here like a weekend.
And then Eli's like, oh, come to dinner.
And then he obviously told you and you text me like three hours later.
You're like, you moved to San Antonio?
I was like, oh, yeah.
Yeah.
Because I think it's funny for some reason.
So, yeah.
Now I have a house out here.
You had a flight here.
I just love how your brain works for like, I miss my boys.
I don't like plans.
We're moving.
All of this.
We're moving.
Solution.
All of this just to avoid a return flight.
Yeah, absolutely not.
There was no way.
So now I have a house out here and it's just a nice, safe 30 minute drive in a car.
His response when I was like, oh, we can invite Nico.
He's like, oh.
Is he in town?
I was like, he moved here.
What?
What?
And then he texts you.
So like, short answer, yes.
But yeah, he literally just, I think at that point, moved here like the day of or.
It was like, I was only like seven, seven days in because I was like, I couldn't even
come and hang out just because I was like, I'm still unpacking boxes and shit.
So I'm not going to be able to make it.
But yeah.
And then here we are.
Hanging out like boys.
The four best friends that anyone can have.
Yeah.
Just in time for us to move.
Range day to Las Vegas.
I know.
That's actually very funny, bro.
I was so fucking mad.
Literally, it wasn't until like last week, officially, I was like, okay, I guess I'll
go to the range day.
Because I literally was like, I'm not fucking going.
I'm not getting on a plane.
I just literally came here and I drove here, by the way.
And so I'm like, you know what?
I forget who convinced me like two days ago.
And I was like, you know what?
Fuck it.
Like, I'll go to range day, I guess.
We'd love to have you.
Thanks.
Thanks, guys.
So fucking fun.
You go, come on.
They're like, let's just do it because we know Nico's going to move out here.
But let's get this little bitch boy on a plane and watch him freak out.
We'll charter it private, which is statistically way more likely to crash.
But it's more fun.
That is true.
I've never flown private.
Nico wakes up in a Spirit airline.
Yeah.
We said we were flying private.
I just drive out there and I'll meet you guys.
That Spirit Airlines is going under, I think.
Right?
They just announced they're closing up.
Oh, no.
Are they?
Are they?
I thought Spirit Airlines was actually doing kind of good.
No, I don't think so.
I don't think they've ever done good.
I mean, no one ever thinks they're doing good, but I'm like, I don't know.
My parents always fly Spirit, and I'm like, okay.
We'll go do that.
I hope I still have parents later.
Dude.
It was one of the-
Those are the ones I'm like, nah, of all the airplanes.
Oh, yeah.
Bankruptcy.
Yeah.
Okay.
I was wrong.
They said they canceled service at four California airports and canceled 11 routes.
Okay.
Maybe they're not going under yet, but they're about to go into bankruptcy.
Restructuring process.
The restructuring.
Weird.
Neat.
They get a lot.
I mean, they have a lot of media attention all the time, which shows you.
Very good.
No, exactly.
I feel like you would know this.
Why did we-
What was the plane that could travel like super fucking fast?
It was a commercial, the Concorde.
Concorde, yeah.
They ran it for like a couple years, and then they quit.
Why did they stop with that?
I don't know.
I don't know if it was like a FAA, like a regulation thing, where there was like a-
They capped commercial flight speeds or something like that.
I thought it was an efficiency thing, because like it costs like a pretty penny.
You could get from like West Coast to East Coast, and obviously all business people were
paying it, but like the fuel efficiency, and this is when like all these planes started
transitioning, I thought, to smaller aircraft, and they're like, it just makes more sense
to have these people pay for more flights and do more like stops.
So the Concorde was retired in 2003 due to a combination of high operating costs, a sharp
decline in passenger numbers, after a fatal-
2000 crash, and restrictions on supersonic flights over land.
So it was, yeah, okay, so there was a-
A composition of all land?
There was a-
Oh, yeah, dude, the supersonic's stupid.
I disagree.
I like-
I want that.
It's that high?
Are you gonna hear that shit, really?
You'll hear like-
No.
No, I'm not gonna hear it.
It's just like, why not get there faster?
I like it.
No, like, I want that.
Oh, I thought you were saying you didn't like it.
No, I don't like that.
No, let's do it.
Speed.
I love speed.
We'll do-
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.
Isn't the nose shit?
Like once you're in the air, it goes like.
And like straightens out the whole head of the aircraft.
And then before you land it, like fucking.
Dude, that would fuck me up.
Yeah, when it takes off, it's like downwards.
And then when it's in the air, it's like.
It consumed five to seven times more fuel than subsonic aircraft.
I don't care.
Oh, trust me.
Because the speed and how fast did it get from New York to L.A.?
That's what I was trying to figure out, Concorde.
Wait, New York to L.A.?
LA to New York. Three hours.
It was fast.
Especially compared to, what is this, six hours
for a regular one? Traveling at Mach
204,
1,354 miles an hour.
Holy shit.
Yeah, you're looking at sub-three hour flight
from coast to coast. That's pretty hot.
It'd be awesome.
Dude, that was, no.
It's tweaking me out, just thinking about, you're just
flying super fast and shit just starts slowly
flying off the fucking. You'll hit the ground faster, though.
That was your whole. No, you're going.
You're going like this, Nick. You're not hitting
the ground faster. You're not. It's gonna
bleh. My skin's probably gonna
fly off of my body before I hit the ground.
Hey, the flight's shorter.
No. Okay, so, oh god.
The Concorde typically took
five hours, and this is just, you know, Google results
so who knows, five hours and 45 minutes
to fly from Los Angeles to London.
Yeah. That's sick.
What do you think the flight's like, though?
Do you think it's like smooth or just like crazy?
I bet you don't feel shit. It's like the
bullet train. Bullet train.
You're just walking around. It is very chill.
You're just like, oh, shit. And then you look out
the window and you're like, holy shit.
Holy shit.
What's LHR?
Maybe they're gonna bring it back since they're
rolling back all the EPA shit with cars.
Dude, that would be rad.
LHR? Yeah.
To JFK is three hours compared
to 7.57 and six.
Those flight times are wildly
different. Did you see the EPA shit?
Oh, which one? The rolling back
like a bunch of EPA and CAFE standards and all
the bullshit. And Toyota came
out and announced their new Supra's gonna have a V8.
Nice. Ooh, I did see that.
Oh, I thought it was like something.
Is it a V8 or like a V12 they were talking
about? Like something insane. They said it was gonna be a five liter
V8 in the Supra. I mean, the Supra's
tiny. That should go.
They're gonna be stupid. I'm excited.
V8s are back on the menu.
A lot of supercars
are gonna. Supercars in
general, like, the high
is dying. Thank God.
Like, all these supercars, like,
the Tesla's gonna fuck every
supercar in the ass.
Especially the new Roadsters. New Roadsters
fast. Yeah, like, the
supercars are what? They're just expensive
but they're not as fast. I think
it's a lot of it's aesthetic, though.
Yeah, even that's getting matched.
Like,
I love all of the stats of the Roadster
and I might buy one
depending on when they come out and how much they actually go for.
But I just, it doesn't look like. It's like hypercar stats
but it looks like a Model S. That's always
the hard part. It's, you want that
refinement. I want a Lamborghini because of a Lamborghini.
I want a McLaren F1 because of
a McLaren F1. Plus the engine sound.
I hate, I love how fast
electric cars are. I hate,
despise them racing.
Anything. It's just,
you just hear the rubber. Get over it, Eli!
Just say it.
It's the perception of women.
It's the whole issue with it. It's like
trying to explain to a woman that the
power of a car is the power of a car.
The power lifter with the beer guts actually
stronger than Arnold Schwarzenegger.
They're never going to believe you and that's all that matters.
Doesn't matter what's on the stat sheet.
Just,
what impresses you? Okay, we're going to go with
that. I'll spend four times the money.
I feel like supercars are like, that's another thing where
it's like watches and anything else,
which shouts out to watch guy.
You're impressing other men.
You're gay.
Yeah. Something like that.
That's the reason I got my watch.
So dudes would ask me questions.
That's the reason why I got my supercar.
Oh, a hundred percent.
It's like, and it's true.
Guys will walk up to you before women will.
If you have a nice car, girls aren't like, oh my God, it's dudes.
Like, no, there's a, there's a, there's like a bell curve where it's
like impressing everybody, impressing everybody, impressing everybody.
Women stop being impressed.
Only dudes keep being impressed with watches.
It's like women are impressed up until Rolex.
Try to explain to them when A and P is or any, like anything that's
not going anywhere.
They don't give a shit.
It's not a Rolex.
It's like the only brands they know.
Yeah.
Unless you're like into it, into it.
Right.
It's like Lamborghini, Ferrari.
What the fuck is a McLaren?
Like the knowledge is kept.
I just watched you like take poison damage on that one.
Tell me I'm wrong.
I just watched like a tear went down and he sucked it back up.
I'm watching like Eli's heads up display.
Like read that negative honor.
He's like, what the fuck did you just say?
Sav, you're laughing a little too hard.
Sav, did you know what a McLaren was before he got one?
Yes.
Only just my dad though.
So it's still, it's still, it's still on guy base.
Hey, they made a new one too.
Only five.
I told Brandon today.
Yeah.
I was like, Hey, if one of those five got offered to unsub to buy as a whole,
and it's three to $5 million, we were spending three to $5 million.
The new one.
What is it?
The W one or whatever the fuck?
So Gordon Murray makes his own.
He made the F one then stepped away and then very rarely designs cars.
He just redesigned that F one LM is the S one.
And it is, there's only five being made and there may be three to 5 million.
He hasn't set a price.
And that car is going to be worth in a decade, like 40, $50 million instant.
Like mark my words in two decades, that will be a $50 million car all day long.
On some historians, you better get your pens.
But what about the speed tail that lost all of its,
the value he didn't work on that.
Oh, okay.
We're talking about the designer here, retaining the value of the car.
That's why the, out of those 100, well, there's like 82 F ones left there.
The last one sold for like $32 million and that was $800,000 when it came out.
And they're just getting, they just keep going up.
Yeah.
Got go buy a supercar guys.
Well, you know, that was, that was kind of like part of growing up for me.
It's like, since I was a kid, I always wanted a Lamborghini Aventador.
That was like my car.
I'm like, when I make it, I'm going to buy a Lamborghini.
Lamborghini.
Aventador.
And it's like, weirdly, like it's the growing up thing where you,
you realize like, okay, now that I can afford one,
I would rather spend that.
It's like a few hundred thousand, what?
Three, four, $500,000.
300 back.
Like you're always changing.
The car market's a little fucked right now.
Yeah.
That's the hard part right now.
It's super 500 grand, three to 500 easy.
I would rather have that and like either invest in more businesses or,
or buy some land or hire more employees or buy a CNC machine.
Or like,
there's so many things that that money could do that would matter more in my
life than,
a car that I'll drive once a week.
- Cut to Brandon driving a CNC down the road.
yeah it's like i can have all of it realistically guys i was just pitching out some good advice
i'm not youtube money ain't that good it's it's decent but it's not that good
it's hard like supercars watch even watches looking at the prices it's like ah but they're
really cool and then it is an heirloom you can pass down to your kiddo especially if there's
like precious metals and stuff like that like it makes a little more sense than just i i didn't
even have a nice watch either until like a year and a half ago yeah i was i was rocking a 90
dollar invicta like tells time same and then you start learning it and then really he went as
autistic as me and it's rare when i'm like ah he's just as invested into we don't talk about
things my wife don't know about dude you put on a swimming cap and dove down that
i was like oh he's sending me pictures i gotta find the best one okay i found the best one
so
the rest apple watch get fucked speaking of which what do you want to know uh this is the one this
is the same one this is the the grand seiko it is spot on timer like oh that's right yeah you were
telling me about that one thing is it's been two months i've had it and it's not a second off yet
which is impressive for a mechanical watch same with my phone wild this is true
this is true he's like shut the fuck up
it's like come on now

nico what are you working on next now that you're surrounded by all the creators again
well you can do anything yeah but i mean like i said like maybe like a year or two ago i was like
okay once i went to vegas i was like i think i'm just kind of like not done making content but i
could kind of like care less what i do at this point because i'm living pretty good i don't
there's nothing else i really need to do or care to really achieve in my life um but i get bored
fast and easy uh and then now then it got deeper into me investing and doing all these things and
then now trying to get into acquisitions purchasing other companies and stuff like that and then it's
just hey i'm liquid enough do you need money and i'll take like 10 equity in that just so i have
the ability to like also participate in decisions of companies because i love scaling companies and
i'd rather take a lower cut on equity um than actually taking like high just on revenue share
so yeah just investing and stuff like that but then now now they're not here vlogging live
streaming and just kind of doing all that stuff again any companies you're working with you want
to like no okay i am very quiet about it might be a good shout out opportunity but i feel like
nico's super into crypto or something i do have a pretty vast crypto portfolio yeah god every woman
in the room is now drier than the sahara yeah yeah yeah pretty much that's how it works and i'm like
i'm not even gonna explain shit it's just the crypto bros have you seen the uh it's it's just
a screenshot of a message thread where it's a girlfriend breaking up with her boyfriend and
she's like john we need to see other people all your friends are advancing their careers and
achieving things and blah blah and all you do is blow all your money on this stupid bitcoin shit
and then it was like how much my 117 bitcoin is actually worth it showed it showed the date and
then it was like seven years later and and it's just hey john how have you been yeah yeah it's
just like okay and a lot of people don't understand it in general so i'm like okay that's fine but i've
in crypto for a while i actually just applied like two days ago um because gemini is working
with mastercard and they just came up with uh utilizing bitcoin and xrp four percent back
for purchases and that's in like a crypto portfolio and so basically i'm like i'm kind of
over the amex lifestyle i've had my platinum cards i've had my gold cards i've had my blue
my green cash cards. I have all these things to utilize different ways of investing my money and
getting cash back and then, you know, spending all that around. But Amex is just like losing so
much of its value. People don't want to work with them anymore. So now I think a big pull that I'm
going to start doing is utilizing my new Gemini card just to get 4% cash back because it's 4%
on quite literally everything that you're purchasing with. So I'm like, okay. And then
with the new passes and policies of like the crypto, like cash reserve and stuff like that,
i'm like okay this isn't going anywhere sorry oh quick little spiel so i'm super excited to
get that right now didn't didn't they announce that like the u.s government's gonna have a
reserve of i think bitcoin solana and eth i'm not surprised solana i've never heard of that one
yeah soul eth bitcoin xrp um man uh no doge no god damn it something tells me that there might
have been a rift there yeah no but the i'm really you know it sucks to say now because everyone's
really banking on xrp but i've been investing in xrp since i was like at sub 50 cents and i'm a xrp
i'm a big whale on that but now that everybody's talking about it makes me nervous and i'm like oh
like is this going to like tank because you're starting to see when you start seeing like
celebrities and stuff talk about crypto it's kind of like a big red flag in that world but when the
white house is talking about it too and then that entire cash reserve stuff comes out it's like okay
maybe this can work but i'm like okay and if it fails it who cares that's what investing
is set it on fire and hopefully it turns into a phoenix if not have fun with the ashes dude
I love trying to explain Bitcoin to old people.
It's one of my passions in life.
You're trying to give them a heart attack.
I know.
I just sit there and watch their brain short circuit.
They're like, yeah, but it's just numbers on a screen.
I go, yes.
And the cash in your pocket is just green paper.
It literally, the exact same.
Yeah, but it's money.
I go, what the fuck is that?
Are you telling me that older people have a hard time understanding concepts like that?
Yes.
Do you know the average age of the person who regulates Bitcoin?
It's 70.
Yeah, that seems like a problem.
The people that are legislating crypto are beyond the age where they are capable of understanding it.
My video on Klarna comes out.
That's horrifying.
Wait, what?
Video on what?
Buy now, pay later, Klarna.
Oh, that's the pizza thing you were talking about?
Yeah.
And that's you.
So you did a deep dive on this, right?
The buy now, pay later shit is like, it's fine if you're doing it for like an oven or whatever.
but Klarna signed an exclusive deal with DoorDash.
So now you can do pay in four or pay off in 30 days
for a zero interest-free loan on your DoorDash order.
Do not do that.
Here's the crazy part.
Klarna makes its money by processing fees and interest.
Credit cards make their money by processing fees and interest,
but they're not regulated as credit cards or lines of credit because it's
not revolving credit.
So when they write you up for any amount of money they give you,
that is an individual small loan every time.
So if you fucking buy 90 things on DoorDash in a year using Klarna,
you've opened up 90 lines of credit.
That's fucking insane.
Not good.
Look this month.
They,
they just started reporting all of this.
So previously they weren't reporting.
reporting it to, um, your credit score rating bureaus. The only time it would affect your
credit was if you didn't pay them back, they would sell the debt off to a collector. The
collector would report it and it would negatively impact your credit. Well, people are getting
pissed because it can't improve your credit. Okay. So now we have to start. Now we have
to start reporting it every time. Okay. So now they're reporting every time you buy a
fucking burrito and if you pay it off, it can improve your credit. But also when you're
go to buy a house or a car or anybody runs your credit and oh you've opened up 300 lines of credit
this year that's insane for 17 a piece yeah that's not looking good just a little bit of sage wisdom
if you need to take out a loan to buy 25 worth of chick-fil-a you don't need to be door dashing
starve starve instead this is the funny part i was talking shit about it because i i love to tweet
about shit before i make the video to find out the shitty talking points for the keyboard warrior
bit somebody got on there and commented oh rich youtuber doesn't understand the struggles of the
rest of the 99 of us door dash is a necessity for some people okay no we're fine we're fine go ahead
yeah how how is it a necessity uh he argued because some people are disabled so they can't
go get their own food nick it seems that the government have something
you
in place for that right meals on wheels most grocery stores have free delivery services
hgb does like crazy wow so crazy i don't know i don't know how disabled people got their food
before door dash they didn't know they starved that's why door dashes well and then and then
that company though didn't something come out about with the whole loan process that people
actually weren't like they hit like a huge dip in revenue because people quite literally weren't
paying back the loan q1 for 2025
clarna is 99 million dollars in the red because you're never gonna believe this
the people that financed burritos aren't paying off the loans shocking oh my goodness
clarna is gonna ipo they're trying to get 15 billion dollars so all we need to do now is for
clarna to sell off the debt and bundle it as an investment to get more investment 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
investment money into it and then when the subprime burrito bubble bursts we can crash
the economy just like we did in 2008 it's gonna be perfect yay do you think they could win though
except for a way dumber reason dude the worst fucking reason i say that the video i was like at
least when the housing market crashed the bank could foreclose on the house and have something
to sell and get some of their money out of now you're out here trying to repo a turn
the bank shows up spread your asshole it looks bad on your credit also if you keep applying for
lines of credit you're supposed to do i think it's like don't quote
five seven max a year yeah like you want to restrict how much for my video for my video
there's a bunch of like uh bank people like mortgage lenders and shit that we're getting
on tiktok being like please don't use clarna if you're in the process of buying a house
because you can't open new lines of credit and this is a line of credit and it can literally
deadline your entire mortgage process trying to get your first home three to six months like
minimum i used to do real estate and we would that we would come into that
quite a bit where you would have uh somebody who celebrates like i just bought my first house this
is awesome i went out and bought a boat it's right outside and you just like the closing
attorneys everybody just stopped like you you did what yeah it's right outside did you pay cash for
it oh no no they gave me a great rate all right guys i think we're done here today um fuck
credit is the one thing it can be terrifying because you can fuck
that real fast but it takes a little bit of time to rebuild the other way these places
fuck you is because every the way they have to write it to avoid credit card regulations
is because every fucking burrito every pizza every grocery order that you use buy now pay later on is
its own individual loan in order to keep up with that to like make it appear to skirt that credit
card regulation they have to charge all of those individually so if you have 90 buy now pay laters
it's not you're getting one statement at the end of the month you owe clarna 800 it's no we're gonna
charge your account you bought a burrito on tuesday we're charging you the next six tuesdays in a row
then you bought a pizza on wednesday we're charging you the next six wednesdays in a row so you're
getting 50 different payments taken out your bank account's taking poison damage yeah yeah pretty much
dude how again i just don't see who the fuck actually thinks that's a good idea well a lot of
people i know the other side too it's the this
the lack of sustainable business model the stat i found was um doordash obviously won't release
the information neither will clarna but um it was like consumer or something rather did a study and
38 i think 38 or 33 percent of people that frequently use doordash were likely or very
likely to use buy now pay later services yeah a third i don't understand what's causing that
though because i've like heard of that statistic but i'm like what position did you put your
yourself in one to where you're there and need that and two to where you continue to pull out
these loans just for this food bro go eat fucking peanut butter jelly sandwiches man you're thinking
too deep it is it's you're too deep so like when they did a bunch of um like marketing studies in
the 80s and 90s on this and whenever you spend it's like over 80 it activates the same part of
your brain that um recognizes pain so like the lower your total amount is when you hit by doesn't
matter what the circumstances are the better you feel about it so like dumb people financially
illiterate people like it's not that they don't have the 17 in their account it's that it just
feels better to only spend four dollars at checkout you're still spending the same amount if not more
yeah and correct so what's the interest like on this it's like 36 percent or something
what are you serious it might be 26 it's like the upper end of credit yeah right
it's still like you're looking at i guarantee minimum 20 percent and
everyone's going into it thinking really quick it is you're thinking okay i have this much
information on this this is why i went into that a lot of people don't even have that it's oh i can
get a loan now oh that helps my credit that's what i've heard that's as deep as that goes so then
look i can buy that and i can buy a whole bunch and i'll just pay it off when i pay it off because
i'm helping my credit or i don't care i'll just never pay it back what's the worst they're gonna
they're gonna ruin my credit i don't give a shit so there's your two different
negative sides of that coin you shouldn't be worried about ruining your credit unless you're
like stupid then your credit doesn't matter but if enough people start using this it's gonna fuck
everybody though because a credit card charges between one and three percent for a processing fee
that's what they charge the retailer buy now pay later's charge like six percent so they charge
double of what a credit card charges and the only reason retailers agree to it is because there's
hard data that shows people are like
it's like 30 percent more likely to actually do the purchase because the price is lower at checkout
so they feel like they can make the payment so they're more likely to purchase and they're like
it's like 17 percent more likely to spend more money so the to the retailers they're getting
more sales at a higher dollar volume so they're all about it so they're willing to pay the
difference but if enough people start using it the retailers are like well half these people are
having us pay six percent transaction fee we're just going to raise the
price then they just raise the prices on everything to accommodate their loss on that
end and then everybody they're winning but it just helps with inflation don't get got don't get got
oh lord that's why it's it makes me sad i'm like god i wish you guys weren't all retarded but but
the reason the reason i went down this rabbit hole was because you brought up the people
regulating bitcoin it's the same problem with this is it's like oh you know who's probably
not using doordash a whole lot to like see that this is an issue
70 year olds in congress that would obviously if they looked at it and thought about it for
half a second would be like wait a minute that's a credit card what the fuck is this
all they see is a charge that shows up that they make their staffers go do for them yep oh oh that
means i got food i hate everything hey uh brandon do you have cash app brandon i asked you a
question no eli what's that do you have cash app brandon how did you do that brandon anything's
possible when you use cash app uh okay moving money should be easy brandon that's why there's
cash app wow this is really easy to use i have it now don't hit me again catch up as fast safe and
way more personalized than the other apps out there no extra hoops to jump through no extra
stress all the tools are right there to help you cash in plus sending money through cash app
actually feels safe and secure if something seems sketchy or there's like red flags that you might
be sending your money to a scammer
they let you know they'll give you a warning and make you think twice before hitting send it's like
having a bodyguard for your cash send your bunny some money with the eggplant emoji my favorite
make his friends think twice brandon what are these three drops of water and an eggplant mean
it's a tip for good service i like tips just a tip just just the tip and for whatever reason
if you don't have cash app just head over to your phone app store and download it today
and use code unsub10 and if you send five dollars to a friend you get ten dollars deposited and
your account just for getting started send brandon five dollars his number is three
new cash app users can use our exclusive code
code to earn some additional cash legit for reals no catch just download cash app and use our code
unsub10 send five dollars to a friend within 14 days and you'll get 10 bucks dropped right into
your account that's money that's cash app what's no different than uh with a tiktok trend where
pull out that money it was a chase or whoever had that you could pull out five grand and oh yeah
and it was called banking fraud which yeah it was illegal people were surprised when they got hit
what now says i owe them five grand dog you used your credit card or debit card to pull out five
thousand dollars linked to all your information it was more than that dude they were going up to
i think it was like 30k to 50k that they could like withdraw and then they just started seeing
it fucking like that debt owed and they started actually aggressively pursuing everybody and i
was like well good for them because you you're doing like illegal shit that's literally theft
yes and they would record it was an entire trend
which is the weird part the thought process of somebody that's just like oh yeah
this is their mistake obviously this will be fine for me if enough people break the law nobody's
breaking the law the only get all of us in trouble the only opportunity yeah the only opportunity i
saw from that was i was like bro if you were gonna take all that money and like invest it very briefly
and then like withdraw where there's like a way of like avoiding the capital gains tax sure you win
but nobody did that shit
they went to go buy new shoes and a new tv yeah dude oh god bad so bad i didn't realize they
started doing the um stores they won't admit to it yet but individual price changes when you get
to the front at checkout yeah dollar general got a shit ton of trouble for that yeah i didn't even
know that was a thing and now they'll do the digital display and by the time you walk up
because of uh rfi tags and scanners it can change the price to there so they can change the price to
it based off of the individual coming to the fuck so what do you mean the individual let's say i
walk up with a gtx the brand new graphics card like this top of the line was the new ones like
590s we i have a 590 brandon has a 590 or you have a 590 whoever has the most money they will
actually lower the cost in order to win that individual's business for long term versus the
individual that might be struggling it's a one-time purchase we can charge a bit more
for this person interesting you'd think it would be back it would be the other way yeah they want
they want customer lifetime they want customer lifetime value because that's hey how much will
this individual spend over his lifetime if this dude's lower like thirty dollars versus steve is
five hundred dollars just charge other guy just a bit more this time no and most of the time no
one's going to know it's happening but dollar general just got hit yeah they i i don't know if
i don't know if the government stepped in and did anything but like they were talking about
getting them in trouble because there was a ton of like even with just like groceries and stuff
it was like it says 299 on the shelf but it rings up as 499 so all these people were coming forward
being like they charged me 50 more dollars than what their shelf price said it was because it
rings up different and like the average person doesn't check you know what i mean like i've
never fucking rang something i've been like that's not the right price i know some people
all your groceries yeah yeah and that's why they're doing digital prices now like best buy and stuff
your price is a fixed paper price versus that's why when you go to best buy it's a digital lcd screen
now or they use those barcodes so when you go up it's like it was this much stocks yeah by the time
you're the register you're running up front you're like what is it dude think about this what if they
like you know the the cookies that you accepted on that website track your other behavior and
they can automatically adjust the prices that are shown on their website if you're scrolling on your
phone 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 that's the other thing of how those
companies will work is they buy that information and they're not going to be able to sell it to
you it's why when you go to plane tickets it's always set up a vpn and then go into private
and then google cheap flights because that will make a significant difference on how much you get
charged versus if you're just using your regular account on google and you're searching cheap
flights it's gonna oh this guy will pay this no matter what this is feeling kind of like a cyber
punk ass conversation yeah pretty much we're talking numbers and shit facebook got busted for
uh because once you get facebook access to your phone you're going to get a lot of money and you're
like phone like they have access to the camera and everything facebook got caught they could
tell when it was a a female between the ages of like 12 and 22 and then they could tell every
time she took a selfie multiple times and deleted it and then if they did that they would bombard
them with makeup and beauty ads wait what i don't like this yeah they're like oh she deletes 17
selfies obviously she's self-conscious about her looks let's bombard her with makeup ads it's like
you were gonna say they're looking at my photos like i'm gonna go take pictures of
my asshole later they're probably doing that too it's a whole bunch of toilet paper
well no uh there was that one uh famous case where it was something about um
this guy getting mad i don't know if it was amazon or whatever the fuck it was i read this
story a long time ago but it was uh the guy was getting mad because they were um showing a bunch
of to his underage daughter like showing a bunch of ads for like prenatal vitamins and things like
that it's like are you really trying to encourage teen pregnancy and turns out
amazon knew before he did that she was pregnant yep just based on algorithmic shit just behavior
it will start serving you i started the i've always surfed the internet off of my other account and
then finally when i did uh the say hi channel i started using that as the means i searched the
internet or browse youtube it is now serving me the exact same shorts i had seen months ago on
my old account it's like oh this dude probably would like this content and i'm like oh my god
and i'll be like oh my god it's just now knowing exactly what i used to watch to a t and now serving
it directly of what i know i would watch from the past i was like oh okay i found my algorithm my
exact algorithm is back we can see it on our channels like on the back end it's like your
users also watch and like based on video and whatever and see how much crossover we all we
were at shot show and micah was showing me uh micah just wants his instagram feed like on the search
bars and like whatever the fuck else he's into he's like i'm sick of seeing girls try to promote
their only fans or whatever he will go through and i don't want to see this content on everyone
and i guess i don't even know it's in the setting somewhere but you can see all the posts you've
ever done that too he shows me he's just scrolling thousands of times that he's done it and they just
will not stop trying to feed him tits and ass because they know he's a 30 year old dude they're
like yeah i know you like this i know it you have to like it
that is exactly how mine is to where i'm like i need to get off instagram because i look like a
weirdo and i'm not checking out none of this shit and even if you click like not interested not
interested i swear to god it gives you more what if what if your entire search algorithm whatever
for the the for you page or whatever on instagram which is entirely like firefighter thirst traps
and just gay shit you're like no no no brick by brick brother state mandated homosexuality i like
dick by dick
dick by dick
algorithm dick by inch by inch
my new goal for my miles and miles of dick
the dude shirtless and jeans pissed off punching the heads off of sunflowers
when i see boobs and ass on my racism app on my racism app
where's all the indians being hit by trains
oh fuck i love our algorithms god bless oh my god that's a video for you
what's up indians by train we have your audience send in um darwin awards videos but you have to
play geo guesser i did that on that i know that's what i'm saying but if you made a whole video
i can just tell by now i'm like okay russia pakistan alabama for sure the same five places
every fucking time it's usually one of those god the frequency that pakistan comes up is kind of
remarkable is it well they're like indians but with guns did you see the uh druski doing white
face thing dude that was awesome that was so good everybody's freaking out like he's under fire he's
i was like bro who did his makeup that's some of the best makeup i've ever seen i thought he was a
legit white dude at first i was like this is fucking hilarious
when he posted it i literally liked i was like this is i was like hell yeah brother it wasn't
just white face it was full white body body pink nipples and white titties like that dude the sun

was like i just it i watched it i was like oh shit okay this is one of those it's like man
something is off and i couldn't tell that i was like huh and i seen druski and then i seen all
the other retweets and talking about it i was like holy shit that is
was actually Drew Skeeter.
- I didn't know it was a black guy.
I saw it all over my feed on Twitter one day.
I was busy.
I just didn't pay much attention.
I didn't realize until a day later.
I'm like, oh, that's a black dude.
Oh, holy shit.
That's really, like, it was great.
It was good.
It was real fucking good.
I was impressed.
Did you guys see the video that came out like a day or two later of the guy?
There's like a dude that literally is the white version of that.
And he's like, it looks just like me.
He's like, Drewski, we got to get you in my derby.
We're technically like the same person and shit.
And I was like, they're literally identical twins.
He was wearing the overalls with one strap done.
It looked just like Drewski, but he was actually a white redneck.
Same hair and everything.
Same type of curls and shit.
It was wild.
No shit.
I didn't see a single white person offended.
No.
It's all like fake outrage.
I didn't see anybody actually pissed off about it.
And if you did, if you were actually pissed off about that, go fuck yourself.
Calm down, dude.
Life's not that fucking deep.
There was that also Asian girl did a Kobe.
I do not see that.
Yeah, same time it last couple of days.
It popped up on my feed and all the comments, a helicopter crash.
Yeah, I was about to say she got a helicopter.
Her reveal, it's Asian girl and then brown paint going on.
It's like, oh, this is a dangerous.
Holy shit.
That looks like Kobe Bryant.
What the fuck?
Now, all the comments, a lot of comments.
I was like, this is going to go what black guy here?
Yeah, this passes.
Yeah.
Oh yeah.
I'm okay with this, but not only like, so not only the fact that Asian going to black,
but also woman going to male.
Yeah, like that's, it's fucking wild.
It's all just makeup.
Yep.
Shit.
Self done.
It's, but his, I mean, usually have the Dave Chappelle white.
It's like, you can tell the black dude, but that was the first one where it was.
It it's, it's on the same level of Robert Downey jr.
Like, yeah.
Yeah.
Those.
Those two actually in a movie would be fantastic.
Did you see the one where they, they did like a race swap on that, uh, the Somali mayor.
I think he's in like Minnesota or something like that.
Like, he's like, he's like the racist stereotype of a Somali.
Um, no, but they did a race swap and turned him white and hit it.
Look, he looks scary.
It looks like a fucking demon.
I'm good.
It's to show me what's his name?
I've, uh, type in Minneapolis mayor candidate, mayor, mayor.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
I'm not sure.
Somali.
Omar.
Fatay.
Fatay.
Fatay.
Omar foot.
Yeah.
That guy.
Yeah.
There you go.
Canada C for Minneapolis mayor.
Oh my God.
He does look like the, I'm the captain now guy.
I don't know if I can say that.
Yeah.
Wait, where's his white version.
I'm trying to find.
Oh, literally it came up.
I am the captain now.
I mean, yeah, he's the same guy.
Damn it.
It was in my Twitter feed yesterday.
Fuck.
Got fucking kicked off the internet.
That is like.
It's, it's the same person.
I'm the captain now.
We had that guy on the podcast.
Not the Somali.
I was like the guy that killed the Somalis.
Yeah.
What?
Yeah.
It's our, our boy, Terry.
Yeah.
Terry is one of the three that was like.
He's like, yeah, I was taking a nap, walked up and everyone's like, Hey, get in, get under
the gun.
Everything's like lining up.
He's like, Oh shit.
He puts it.
Okay.
And.
I'm about to fuck this guy.
Ding.
It's like, what?
You just woke up from a nap.
He's like, yeah.
Imagine the over.
Imagine the over penetration on a Somali pirate.
Yeah.
Bro, skin and bone, dude.
Yeah.
Piece of paper.
Yeah.
It's plywood.
Shooting paper.
It's just plywood.
It's just fucking.
Just reseals.
Terry can confirm.
Doesn't happen.
Do you ever struggle with tiny toiletry bottles?
No.
Well, with Mando struggle, no more.
I would not want to spread whole body deodorant on you.
Nick, it's going to get all clumpy in my chest hair, but it looks like I've been
rolling around and mashed potatoes.
How well does it lubricate?
It was developed by a doctor and it works for 72 hours.
Show some respect.
I'm going to tell that to everyone at the magic, the gathering tournament.
I wish I was there when they figured out that it wasn't good for 73 hours.
I like to imagine just a fat guy on a treadmill for 72 hours straight is up.
And he he's turned.
Time to shower.
Finally, fatty curdled.
Thanks to Mando.
It's also named after Mount Fuji.
Really?
Mine's bourbon and leather because I'm a Mando.
It's cursed.
Couldn't even get through an ad without a pun.
What do you want to sell the deodorant or not?
Brandon, I'm just waiting for the sweet release of death.
Not going to come for at least 72 hours.
Listen, we did a lot of meet and greets during the live tour.
Yeah.
Most.
Could use some Mando for a strong, independent woman.
You can do everything a man can do.
He can still use some Mando.
Our to Nick dead.
The cops are coming.
We've got 72 hours to hide the body before it starts to smell.
Actually does smell pretty damn good.
This one smells like the body wash smells actually really good.
I have bourbon leather.
Anybody find the body?
No, but that ditch over there smells delicious.
There's no way there's a body.
You said we can ad lib jokes on you.
We're into that.
This isn't your average deodorant or antiperspirant.
You can try Mando starter pack.
It's perfect.
It comes with absolutely everything.

You'll get 20% off site wide with our exclusive code on sub that's code on sub over at shop Mando.com.
Oh, and we were talking before this podcast started.
Uh, we, depending on when.
This comes out, but we have Don Fry coming on.
I think we were all watched that dude since we were little beating this shit out of people.
And this dude has not changed his mindset and 67 years.
I know it was controversial 67 years ago, dude, hearing of John Connery talking about women.
Have you seen, I got her, give her a little hit.
Have you seen him doing mean tweets?
Yeah, no, he's just reading the comments about him and Don Fry speaks in F three 50, like just shit like that.
That's funny.
My revolver sleeps with Don Fry under its pillow.
Like it's just Chuck Norris jokes, but with Don Fry, that's fucking, but he's reading it in his gravelly ass manly voice.
He's one.
I don't think we take to the gym and spar cause he'll hop in and then punch him.
Good.
We'll just see him loading up on pain calories.
Like, okay.
Time to beat some ass and I'm good.
Proceed to beat our ass.
Like, Oh, they're getting knocked out by Don Fry of all people's pretty cool.
This is true.
He's just one.
It's going to happen, dude.
It's the difference.
Those type of fighters, their light sparring is a different level of our light sparring.
There is no light sparring.
What do you mean?
Exactly.
I've watched when he gets his arm around your neck and just, it's like, all right, well,
Oh dude, good night.
Demetre Demarcus and Sean O'Connor.
When I'd watch them spar, I'd spar and there'd be times like they're getting Demarcus when
he hit, he's a heavyweight and he can go 50% is still going to destroy you.
I had one where I slipped to the side as he like threw a punch and when it missed, he's
like, Oh, that would have hurt you.
I was like, brother in Christ, that would have killed me.
What are you doing right now?
And then step out and then watch him and Sean O'Connell spar and they are fucking tuning
each other up at like 90%.
And they're after.
Where's your friends?
Like, Oh, good job.
Good job.
Good job.
You said it.
You're like, you fucking punched him to down syndrome.
If you look at the pictures after that fight, it really is like he punched an extra chromosome
into that dude.
Yes.
Yes.
I'm excited.
I'm excited.
That's back when they used to not have, um, it wasn't a buildup or it was literally just
a buildup.
It was three fights in a single weekend and a tournament style and how smoked you are
is because how good you did those first couple of fights leading up to your championship
round, which is wild to do an actual Kumite style.
Bless you.
A fucking pride kicks to the head, soccer kicks downed upon it.
None of that shit existed.
When I grew up, pride meant something different.
Fighting in shoes.
That's an accidental Don Fry impression.
Dude, face stopping hits to the groin.
No shit.
Oh brother.
You used to be able to, everything was good to go.
Yeah.
And pride, everything's short of like biting.
Yeah.
Mike Tyson type.
Yeah.
Biting off years like biting and fish hooking were like the only things I think that were
eye gouging and shit like that.
Uh, I don't think you can, you couldn't eye gouge, but like, I mean, there's an old school
like UFC and pride footage of like dudes being caught in submissions and just punching the
dude in the dick to get out.
Oh my God.
Like fall.
On multiple times to get him to let go of an arm bar.
And so it's basically the closest we've ever had to professional street fighting.
Yeah.
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.
Yeah, kind of.
Isn't that when they were doing like nasty soccer kicks too in Pride?
Dude, that's insane.
Kicks to the head of a downed opponent.
Yeah.
Dude, I even forgot this.
You can fucking knee skulls.
Yeah.
And Vanderlei.
So that's Vanderlei Silva.
Oh, fuck.
Bro.
No, that's filthy.
Dude, that's got to fuck your knee though too.
Oh, yeah.
I would be more worried about the other guy's neck.
Well, he's probably dead.
He looks fucking dead.
He gone.
Like, it's just murder sessions.
Like, that will kill a man.
Oh, dude.
Why are we doing that now?
Why aren't we?
I'm guessing longevity of fighters.
You know people are going to sign up if they fucking want to fight like that.
Why do you think the skill gap of MMA has improved so much recently?
Because they survive long enough to get better.
Yeah, true.
But that's just be, dude, that would be like the sport to watch.
That'd be the next.
Like, what?
Like, Power Slap?
Have you guys ever gone to that?
I've seen it.
I've seen it.
Dude, Power Slap.
Dude, when you see someone smack somebody on TV that's crazy, but when you see them smack
them and you feel it in your fucking chest, what?
Like, it makes no sense, dude.
It's insane.
I could never do that shit.
That seems like it's causing TBI.
My favorite is when you see somebody wind up and I've seen men and women do it and they
smack the shit out of them and they go and look straight at them.
They're just the look of off.
Now they get.
The smack me back is the funniest shit on the planet.
They quit, too.
Sometimes they're like, you know what?
I'm good.
Yeah, literally.
It's like, you win.
Congratulations.
You're really good.
Have you seen the reels where they do the face filters?
And it's like, oh, dude, when you slap somebody to Asian.
Yeah.
It's like an ugly white girl.
It's like, what if it's a hot Asian girl?
She's like, did you just slap the race out of her?
They did one with a black guy.
And they literally slapped the black off of him.
And that was the whole comment section.
I want to know how your eyes don't pop out, dude.
Like in all seriousness, it's all just straight to the head.
This is when you could kick when they're down.
Like, or this is probably riveting to the audience.
So just us reacting to fights.
They can't see, but we're watching gay and all sex guys.
It's fucking.
I forgot.
You could just football kick to faces when they're on the ground.
I completely forgot about that.
I think he's still canon.
One FC.
No shit.
I think they still lost strikes to the head of a downed opponent.
UFC's like, I don't know.
I have mixed feelings because like, that's the extreme end.
But then you have other people that take advantage of the rules.
Like when John Jones would come out and he would like drag one of his
seven foot long arms on the ground by slightly leaning down.
And people are like, he's in like a football lineman stance.
People are like, what the fuck do I do?
And I can't kick the guy.
What do I do?
So there was one fight.
I forget who he was fighting.
But it was John Jones and he was doing that.
And the dude threw a head kick right at his head and he ducked it.
And John Jones looks at big John McCarthy and big John McCarthy goes, you wanted to play the game.
Like basically like I'll DQ him after, but like you're eating the face kick.
If you want to do that dumb shit.
I was like, good.
It's a good call.
Then at least the fighter's like, fuck.
Okay.
I don't want to do that.
That would not feel good.
You're still going to fuck up, but he's still going to win.
But I see what you're trying to do here, dude.
His last knock.
Out that rib kick to the liver.
That was steep.
I dude steep a definitely broke a couple of ribs.
Did they release what happened to him afterwards?
Cause he dropped after that, bro.
When you see a kick and then it just cave in and you're like, yep.
Your flow to ribs are gone.
Goodbye.
Have fun now.
See you later.
No.
Did your friend enjoying meeting everyone?
Yeah, you had fun.
Good.
Good.
He was fun to spar.
Good.
That's a good, that Nick and his buddy went a lot harder.
I was like, oh, they're friends.
They're like swinging a bit more on each other.
They've sparred before.
We fought before.
It's fine.
Yeah.
That's hot.
Yeah.
I don't know.
No headgear.
I was like, oh, I don't like, as long as you got some, I mean, I think doing it without
headgear is totally fine, but I'm definitely still rocking a mouthpiece and we're definitely,
definitely still going to need some like light gloves.
That's all.
I, I've heard, and like I saw the one study, I don't, I haven't looked into it extensively,
but like it made sense to me.
The study was like headgear.
Headgear is worse for you because a, your head's bigger, it's a bigger target.
So you're taking more impact, like whether it hits that pad or not, it's still rattling
your fucking brain.
But the other part is like the added weight and torque of like, if you get hit and your
head turns, it's that much more weight and that much more torque on your neck and on
your brain because you're increasing the weight of the thing.
So they're like, headgear is actually worse for you.
I can see that.
I guess it's, I think it's bad headgear cause you do want that cushion, but at the end of
the day it is your brain rattling around.
You have to get rid of that, which harder to do.
I like it.
As long as I'm wearing winning or a thinner, good headgear is very rare, but yeah, there's
a whole bunch of it.
I was like, I can't even name any type of like headgear company that I would buy or
even like try to participate with just, you know, winning.
There's a reason like all the champs like Pacquiao, everyone uses winning because unfortunately
it does cost a lot and you have to wait.
It's coming from Japan.
Yeah.
Once you use it, there is no other headgear, like best shit in the world.
It just feels comfortable.
I don't get headaches after getting punched in the face a whole bunch.
That and I, I'm not doing a lot of the punching of your face when we spar.
Got to move.
But the, um, so I like the fact that like it protects your face a little bit more.
So like you don't come away with it, like less chance of like, you know, broken nose,
black eye, like that sort of like the physical stuff people can see.
Cause I, right before I announced for the campaign.
Uh, last cycle, uh, I was still training for my boxing match.
So that had not happened yet.
And we were like, we were sparring four or five times a week.
And right before I went to go take the photos that would officially become like campaign
photos, uh, I had gotten like a small black eye from Eli and it was not really appropriately
photoshopped out, I guess.
Like you could just still see, like, it's like a bit of a shiner and it's still in those
photos and people still use it to this day.
Like introducing Brandon Herrera.
And I see the photo and I'm like, motherfucker, like that's the, that's the picture where
I'm still rocking a pretty obvious black guy.
Shit's all like slightly closer.
He's a fighter though.
He's a fighter.
I mean, Nick, I haven't watched our one, but you get Nick's waffle bat fists where it's
like, I'm moving out of the way of punches.
I'm like, Ooh, I, I, I put, Finn sent it to me or like the day after we filmed it and
I just hit it.
This Eli moves so fast.
I could, I literally couldn't tell if I hit him or not.
Cause he moved so quick.
And then like, it's like one hit with the jab almost caught him, but he moved like that
far out of the way for, and then it's just the right hand is just a fucking air ball.
But you, in the slow-mo, it sounds like a waffle ball bat moving through the air.
Yeah.
I was like, what the fuck are you doing?
It was slipping backwards.
Cause it was like, that's coming next.
And it's like, see, don't want to get hit by that.
Yeah.
That's when you hear that.
No, no, no, no, no.
I'm good on all of that.
So what kind of, now that you're actually out here doing it, what is your next style
of content you're going to get back into?
Are you just going to keep doing.
Probably trying to like, like IRL streaming, I think is like in, in, in the sense of like
content creation and stuff like that.
I think how big IRL streaming has gotten is going to kind of change the game a little
bit, especially when you have like live view platforms and stuff like that, which is basically
just this tiny little fucking computer that you can plug into your camera and now you
can stream on a private.
If you want to, you're not going to need a PC.
You can literally stream wherever you want.
It's going to replace the computer, like desktop streaming.
And yeah, so that's basically the next thing is like trying to find a good live view pack
to work and then doing like IRL content.
What kind of stuff would you want to do on the IRL streaming?
Dude, just me being retarded in my backyard, doing whatever I want, having these giant
like control burns in my backyard, shooting, chopping down trees.
I'm lumberjacking it lately.
Cause I have like two acres.
All shit that makes a guy go, hell yeah.
Yeah.
I'd be lumberjacking in my backyard cause I got a few acres of like trees and shit back
there.
I'm trying to get rid of, so I can actually like utilize it and shit like that.
But yeah, nothing like too serious.
I just kind of do whatever I want, whenever I want.
What is it about these trees?
You've talked about them a lot, both on and off this podcast.
They're in my fucking way, Nick.
Like you moved to Texas.
You're like, fuck these trees.
You're like a beaver.
Like you see running water.
You're just like, absolutely not.
No.
Well, cause I have, I have this land, but like in the, in my front yard.
I can like do whatever I want, but in the backyard, you've got about like maybe 25 feet.
And then it's just a like wall of trees.
And I'm like, bitch, I paid for this shit.
I just bought all of this.
I want to do stupid shit.
I want to be able to do whatever I want.
I want to put a helicopter pad back there or something crazy.
So I have to like chop them all down.
And my gym's not put together cause I need to build like a separate like area.
I want to put two houses in my backyard.
So I'm like.
Okay.
You know what?
I'm chopping down all these trees.
So I'm just back there with an ax all day.
Like that's my workout.
You just had me think about the water boy.
Why is Nico so angry?
Well, cause he got a helicopter pad, but no helicopter.
He got all that.
I can't get the helicopter.
I got the helicopter pad.
Next episode.
Why am I going to put the helicopter?
That big, that big yard not in trees.
Next episode of the gang does.
We're all going to dress up like tree beards from Lord of the Rings and break into Nico's house.
There's too many guns all over the place now.
I've got everything.
Self-defense shoes.
shooting against a tree well i sent eli a video i was like dude what i was like you guys need to
like have a tree hacking fucking competition in the backyard pick a line and see who can
chop down the most fucking trees in an hour because it's just i just have like nico just
getting free work my friends and doing manual labor all right fucking tom sawyer look at this
race you can have.
Okay, we got it. Nick, you take the middle one.
I need you to go over here. It's a $75
entrance fee, guys. Pay me.
Go!
It's my favorite thing to do
every single day.
I do it every single day. I find time
to chop down like 10 trees
every day. It is such like a good
therapy session for me.
It's actually like my favorite thing to do.
He's still selling it. Next time it's going to be a competition.
Who can paint my fence the fastest?
You want to build a house for me
in my backyard too?
Unsub becomes Mennonites.
Oh my god.
Well, at least. How many is left
of the tree clearing? Too many.
How many acres?
Maybe like an acre
left of trees.
How many did you start?
I have like half an acre in the front
and then I have half an acre
in the back cleared and then I have a whole
another acre.
It's only two acres and then
it's just all but it's like they're all
side by side. So it's just fun to kind of
go out there and just beat some shit.
Be a dude. Beat it with the axe.
I was like, oh, use the chainsaw because I put some of it on my stories.
They're like, get a chainsaw. I'm like, no, no, no.
The axe is actually very fun
and it's very relieving.
So yeah, good times.
It's like the one dude that chops.
It's weird seeing what YouTuber Instagram
channel. His, of course,
would have blown up. That one dude that just
shows different axes and how to
split logs. Oh, the dude that's jacked
and does it. And good looking.
It's just women.
Oh, it's a female thirst trap.
I don't know why he got big.
That's in your miles of dick Instagram
feed. Dick by dick.
I read the comments every time
and it's just women. I wish I was that log
getting split up. Just like
the raunchiest shit on the planet
every time. Some of them are actually
really funny. Go back to your romance novels.
Jesus Christ. And all he does is
he doesn't make any in the window.
He doesn't say shit.
Just goes out there.
Splits a log in half.
He can split me in half.
I'm wet.
I'm wet as fuck, brother.
Split me like a log.
Everyone knows that.
It works.
And you actually have a female audience base.
What's that like?
I don't think anyone at this table
knows. I think mine's probably the worst out of
all of ours as far as
female view percentage.
All right.
Pull up them dashboards.
Nah, you got them ladies, bro.
No, no.
I want to see yours.
Yeah, you do. Look at you.
No, there's absolutely no way.
Nico has a female audience.
No, mine's all just retarded men.
What do you got?
Let me see.
What's your percentage of male?
All my audience is like autistic men
between the ages of 15 and 35.
For which?
That's like 80% of them.
What platform are we talking about right now?
YouTube.
Okay.
Oh, yeah. All right.
What?
I got 94.1% male.
Damn it. You beat me. 93.7.
I knew I would.
It's all fucking dudes.
It's a sausage fest in my audience.
Unsub is at 95% male.
Shocking.
Never mind. We got 5% females.
4.1% females.
My favorite thing.
For males, 89.3%.
I don't know coming in swinging with that
11%.
Shit, it is doing numbers.
My favorite thing if I ever get recognized
in public by a couple is
it's only happened like twice
that the woman actually knew who I was
and liked the videos too with her husband.
And every other time
it's just like
a wife that's embarrassed or annoyed
that her husband is fanboying
over some other dude.
And it's like whatever.
I introduce her. Oh, hi, I'm Nick.
Oh, hi, I'm Sarah. Whatever. And we'll be talking.
And she's like, I don't know who you are. Sorry.
I'm like, oh, it's no big deal. Whatever. That's fine.
That doesn't offend us.
Yeah.
After we talk for 30 seconds, she's like,
okay, I know who you are now.
I go, you just recognize my voice from your husband's phone, huh?
She goes, yeah.
I don't know why that cracks me up.
The amount of uncomfortable situations
I've come across due to the female audience.
Like literally I was at what?
Tractor supply with my girlfriend.
And literally I'm talking
with this firefighter guy who like,
you know, knew my content.
Just chatting with him really quick.
And then this couple parks,
they get out their car and this guy's
with his wife and she goes,
oh my God, Nico.
And I was like, what the fuck?
And I didn't know, like, I thought it was like my neighbor
or something because I just moved out here.
And then my girlfriend's like, oh, those people were saying
hi to you. Go. I mean, this is kind of
weird thing for me to do, but whatever. I was like,
I didn't want them to think I was ignoring them. So I went
back inside and I was like, hi, nice to meet
you guys. My girlfriend said you guys like
said hi and I didn't notice.
And she's just like, oh my
God, it's so nice there. And her husband's just standing
there. He's like,
husband wasn't a fan. Husband
was not a fan, but knew
what I was. Husband was like, well,
she just met her in hall pass.
Yeah. Well, no, this has happened
like a few times
and I'm just like, and I just like
try and then just not talk to the girl. I try
to talk to him like, hey man, don't
fucking shoot me or do no dumb shit.
A hundred percent some of those girls have been like,
it's happened to everyone
at the table, but it is just
so you know, that's my hall pass. I'd fuck him
if I met him. And then the husband meeting,
you at the same time, it's like, fuck, fuck you.
Did you just move here? Yeah.
Fuck you.
You got closer.
To do list. Kill
Nico.
I'm like, okay, God
damn it. Steal
his trees. Steal his
trees. Plant more trees.
Plant trees in his freezer, Nico.
You gotta make it.
I would lose my mind because I'm
working so hard to get rid of all this shit.
Where the fuck are the redwoods back here?
As you wake up, there's 80 more saplings
freshly planted.
You know how funny that would be to actually do?
Pretty funny. He's ever out of town?
Dude, I would lose my mind.
Every time he has trees in his yard.
Just like adolescent trees, like not saplings.
No, we're paying for the big ones.
We're moving the big ass trees.
I'm paying extra.
I'm getting like the three fence
posts around it with the chicken wire
so it stands up straight, so it's a real big
pain in the ass to take out.
Hey Google, what are the hardest trees to chop
down with an axe?
What are endangered trees you can't cut down?
Endangered ones with endangered species?
Endangered birds?
We move the spotted owl
to San Antonio just to put
them in your fucking backyard.
We get a tree put in
and then put a bat's nest in it so it's
illegal to take down. I'll bite the
fucking head off those bats, dude. I don't care.
We're evil friends. We build the tree
around, like you know how you can like
put something to a tree when it's growing up and it just
absorbs it. Pieces of
rebar.
It's a metal tree.
It's just like, ahhh!
I fucking hate my friends.
Everyone's talking to me like, my friends do this. They'll be like, mine
planted trees in my backyard, those fucking pieces
of shit. They're like, you have head problems, dude.
I don't know.
How you know your friends made it.
They start fucking doing that level.
Get some organization to donate money to buy the trees.
What was that?
I have to be careful because there's a tree sanctuary
a little bit past my backyard, so I can't
f***ing touch those guys. It's about to be in your yard.
So you're just in your backyard with an axe
trying to set a tone for the rest of the fucking forest?
Yeah, pretty much.
You psychopath. F*** this sanctuary, dude.
VladTep's here.
How do you know your friends have money?
What was that story you said where it's like
you're pranking your rich friends or was it
was it Hafer? I can't
I can't f***ing remember, but it was where
in order to f*** with his
body, he had like somebody dress up
in like a
medieval outfit and go read a
decree to him.
I think it might have been an Evan
Hafer story. That sounds like an Evan Hafer story.
But just, yeah, paid a dude
to be like a medieval squire and show up
in a f***ing board meeting and read a
decree to his buddy.
I'm trying to remember where I heard that.
That's the funny shit. I can't wait for all the stupid things
you're going to end up doing to you guys now that I live close
because it's going to be very entertaining for me. My trees
are in danger.
Nico's going to have a bunch of trees. I'm putting all my trees in your guys'
backyards. Good f***ing luck, dude. Just wake up. We've got like the
Ewok like rolling traps and
shit like that made out of Nico's trees.
Mr. Brandon had his
event. What was that called last
night? It was just a campaign kickoff event.
Campaign kickoff. I was so confused.
That's why. I was like, what is
the point of this? Okay, he's
doing this. What do we talk about? Okay,
good. But it went. That was awesome to see.
It was good. That whole ass place was full
of your supporters. Yeah, it was good. It was
just over 150 people.
We really put it together like, I don't know,
a couple days prior. It just kind of
got thrown together. We were like, oh, let's do this.
You know, send out a couple texts, whatever. Try
to get a decent crowd there. And it was. It was actually
I think it was, it worked really well.
And I appreciate
you guys for going up and speaking
a little bit, even though I was
informed that nobody told you.
That was fun. It was great.
Getting there, I was like, ah, here to
support Brandon, my friend. I'll just
microphone. Yeah, yeah. And I was
like, what's going on? And they're like, oh, you have to get
up there and rally up, hype up the people.
Eli was ready, though.
He's like, hey, guys! And it's like, yee!
I was like, whoa, that was loud!
Hey, okay. Hey, what's up?
like really loud it was good you did great you did great i was like oh i'm getting a drink then
uh one drink i'm getting in front of people bartender one alcohol please but we you had a
guy show up in full body armor there was a guy and he was like oh you could i was gonna record
you guys hitting me with like one of the weapons i was like oh yeah no he he wanted me to hit him
with an axe i was like buddy we can't i said no that's a lawsuit waiting to happen and we love
you with like dope dope fucking armor i love the energy right i can't hit you with a fucking axe
at a campaign event i'm sorry that's that's a very bad tone oh god you clipped that out of context
assaults fan with medieval weaponry yeah exactly no but it was all real stuff too because he's like
oh yeah dude this is my armor and he's explaining it to me it was dope and i was like hold on dude
i'm not gonna grope you but can i feel your body armor and i start feeling him and i'm dude this
is like hardcore
it's like all super real it's super thick and he's like yeah it'll stop arrows axes maces and
like all these things i'm like he's gonna have us you are protected pepper sprayed him yeah
so i i made i made some sort of joke when he came up to me i was just like oh dude i see
you're ready to travel to modern uk oh god it was a good time i had a lot of fun there and
everyone was like super high in spirit and like super excited to see you the crowd's energy was
awesome uh it was it was it was also just nice to see like you know my friends coming out and
support it meant a lot nick i wasn't there piece of shit sorry that was in iowa doing that i drove
here for that anyway you could have got on a plane why didn't you come to this event that
i didn't even know i was doing until a few days ago no it's good we want to do a lot more of that
stuff in the district this time just like doing bigger events and and just showing up like
showing the energy because you know the unsub live audience is just fucking incredible and like
just i think with those bigger events even if people aren't really familiar with our stuff
obviously we have to tone it down like keep it a little bit more professional it's not quite the
unsub live show kind of thing but they were like just brandon's campaign i was like don't worry i'm
not gonna i won't even cuss i'll behave today i swore one time on the campaign trail last time
like like swear swear like saying fuck or something like that um because i i was actually
like i know how to turn it up people are like oh well you know you're
your personality is this i'm like that's that's online like i know how to turn it off and on like
i know when to be professional right you know you talk differently with your friends than you do
at church or whatever yeah uh but i was at a san antonio young republicans thing it was right after
the republican convention uh for the state of texas and it was held at a uh a distillery strike
one uh but it was right it was uh their ac had gone out so it was like 100 fucking degrees back
there and i remember going up there uh i was like the third person to speak you know just giving a
the the crowd that's there and i remember like i was joking around because it's it's younger people
so you have a little bit like more of a relaxed rapport and i remember stopping like halfway
through i'm like and these you almost got me this is the first time you almost had it
okay here's a serious question just because i'm not too familiar with it in the world of politics
is that like a serious knock on you if you do curse or no no i mean now like i mean uh
you had jd vance on theo vaughn saying fuck uh trump says fuck uh privately a lot but publicly
occasionally and uh like i just don't think people care as much anymore um the the age of like 20
years ago yeah that was a huge problem like i could have never run for office 10 15 years ago
a i was too young but be like just completely completely different world and i think trump did
open that up to a large degree but i think people are just start the republican party especially was
much more like pearl clutching and i think that's a huge problem and i think that's a huge problem
in that way and i just don't think that's the the case anymore fair enough just good because that's
the shit that doesn't matter i'm like i don't care about your personal life for the most part it's
like i i i care about how you vote it's not yeah and people would know how you are like as a person
not that cursing like dictates who you are but like you know shit flies on the internet and like
you are who you are so it's like why would it really matter but you're obviously like an extreme
professional you do so great so it's like why would it matter if it did fly once or twice when
openly to the people so i was serious you know when to be professional and when to cut loose
and whatnot but yeah no i just don't think like and i know a lot of voters don't think this way
which is really kind of like i don't enjoy that mindset i'm not running to be to babysit your
fucking kids right like why do you care what i what i do on my personal this is this is a choose
your fighter loading screen for street fighter this is not who do i want to teach sunday school
do you want a guy who's going to be like a scrappy boardroom guy who's made a lot of money
like doing stuff like this like knowing how to run businesses and knowing how to talk to people
communicate in the real world or do you want a guy who's squeaky clean because he's always wanted
power he's always wanted to run he kept a clean record because he just wants to be oh i'm johnny
on the spot i don't i don't curse in public yeah fake and these are all also like a lot of those
people are some of the worst people yeah behind closed doors it's because it's a screen yeah
oh yeah
faking everything it's more terrifying actually because they're really good at putting up that
front 24 7 so when are you getting the real version of them versus oh they don't give a
shit this is how they talk and then behind the screen oh there's certain politicians that i've
talked to i'll keep their names out of it but there's certain people that i have talked to
like members of congress senators stuff like that where you know they've got that professionalism
publicly but then uh like we're on the phone or like we're meeting in person and as soon as they
let it fly like one one thing like
a specific example we were talking about somebody that both of us didn't like and he goes
listen here this little cocksucker and i was like now i'm talking to the real guy
the politician's screen the facade is down like now i'm talking to the real human
and it's just weird it's weird how people have to do that i do not envy any of that nope like no
i'm good buddy i'm good nick are you ever smarter man than i you ever gonna do any of that we'll see
if i get bored enough yeah
if i get injured enough nothing i just i just i just want to go out there and dunk on politicians
that part is pretty fun hit him a basketball he's actually just fucking dunking on dudes i mean you
just look at i don't want anything after travel though i just want to go to like i want to be
like governor of iowa i just want to be like i i want to i just want to have this is mine now
the biggest literally the biggest job in all of iowa which like that representing all of like
80 000 people three million yeah he knows he's such a good future politician
king of the cops you walk out with your corn crown that's right that would be very funny
this is mine now what's the biggest city in iowa des moines yeah yeah how many people live there
uh eight hundred thousand probably yeah dear god there is about that many people in my district
yeah i mean san antonio and the surrounding areas like roughly the same population as the state of
iowa seventh uh yeah actually yeah the the metropolitan area here three million because
it's uh it's the seventh largest city in the country it doesn't feel like it though
no it does when you try to drive across it yeah if you actually go because we only stay on like
the northwest side we stay in one little pizza sliver of san antonio if you were like on this
end you drive to that end it's like an hour and a half with no traffic oh yeah and there is traffic
that's why it's a big that's why you don't go anywhere here at five o'clock fuck you no no be
again like new bronfels is word of the wise to us okay and we won't go to new bronfels because
it's an hour and 20 minutes away on a good at five o'clock yeah and it's still
it's still san antonio this is why i'm never leaving iowa everywhere we go here is 35 minutes
away groceries for 35 minutes gas station 35 minutes okay does iowa still have that shitty
thing that indiana does where they like you have open road where there is literally nothing you
could hit there is not a heartbeat within miles but they still have like speed limits of like 45
miles an hour uh all the back roads uh like the highways and stuff are usually 55 but like
everybody speeds nobody really cares out west texas well partially because it's like a necessity
because again there's nothing there but 85 miles an hour right but i think i i'm assuming i'm
assuming the reason we don't
do that is a well no a we we have we have winter we have winter and some asshole is still gonna
try to go 85 when there's ice on the ground me and b there's there's so much in a drift that
shit there's so many farms and farm equipment has to use that road too so some asshole is
gonna be on cruise control going 85 come over a hill and there's a fucking harvester
in the road trying to get to its next field and it's gonna smoke it and see i don't want to hear
these excuses that's fair i said i live where shit grows sorry you'd be surprised how much
shit has grown in west texas i'm listening pecans we're actually one of the biggest producer of
pecans in the entire country pecans pecans pecan trees whatever i know and i like different stuff
like that there's there's stuff like that there's industries there there is agricultural industries
in west texas ask me how i know how do you know how to learn all this shit because i don't know
oh really i actually
know i have well so i had to talk to a lot of these these farmers and just kind of listen to
some of their stories because they're talking about like border crisis shit and they're giving
me videos like uh especially like the pecan farmers out toward like
way more like el paso way but they're just like yeah this is us working on a tractor and here's
30 dudes cutting our fences and just running through our property
that's technically a crime no they were running at me with knives
i don't know why all my clothes were off they just i just started punching me in the head and
taking all my clothes off so i had to gas that shit out dear god never okay guys because my
my address may already be out there never come to my house unannounced like i'm just gonna fuck
please i value my fans we were just trying to show up to my house like i can't stress it enough
i'd be clutching on my neighbors and everything because i got like hoa and shit like that and i
just immediately had to set the tone every single time they tried like gently pulling up into my
driveway and i always have a gun on me so i just clutch on my
shit and i just put on and i'm like oh my bad never fucking come here unannounced or try and
sneak are you in the hoa are you right buy it oh no i'm in a hoa area and i still do whatever the
fuck i want just a psychopath in a g wagon chopping down trees with a gun honestly neighbors um
interesting interesting if i saw that and that was my next door neighbor i would be like hell yeah
it's better than a live laugh love sticker i have i have like the other day i was out in my driveway
in my disability chair just
kind of fucking about and i was making a little short and i have like my rifle with the suppressor
and i'm like and my neighbors you can see him through the window like what the fuck and i'm
like i think he fakes disability dude again a g wagon pulls up nico gets out runs to the backyard
don't know what he's wearing grabs an axe starts cutting also there's
and then the chair rolls by yeah i would not know what to think of my neighbor yeah just don't come
here don't come to my house they'll be like what the fuck is wrong with you
with him so uh pewview got a new house with an acreage and a pond and he's building that's cool
dope ass gun range like rivaling matt's gun range like it's insane no shit and he's got it's like
out in the country no houses for literally miles except for there's one house like 30 feet to the
left of his house right on the property line and he he was straight up with them he's like
look i'll buy your house if you guys want i'm putting a gun range in
whatever and apparently he's he's only shot like 90 rounds there
and they're just pissed they already went to the county meeting trying trying to get like the noise
ordinances changed and shit but like they checked all this before they bought the property and
they're like you guys live 10 miles out of the nearest town in the country there's nothing you
can do so there's no or like no minimum property requirement for shooting no i thought there is
via county because i'm trying to do the same thing on my property line it's going to be different
state yeah because oh i okay so out here in texas you need what 10 yeah 10 acres and i'm like fuck
all right well that's my next goal is like 50 acres iowa you can shoot all the guns you want
as long as it's not i think the cutoff is like 10 p.m it's from like 10 p.m to 6 a.m you can't
shoot other than that but i mean pewview shoots 20 000 rounds a month probably and they are already
like coming for his life they're already like super pissed about it and like there's nothing
i mean like like don't get me wrong i understand as like
a neighbor like that could be frustrating to see both sides but then again like there's got to be
some kind of middle ground you guys can like i mean live civilly together as long as you're not
being an asshole and like doing a bunch of shit at like 11 o'clock at night yeah like you know
like you want to be courteous even even when i was out in the fucking country like my shop was out in
the country and we had a range there uh we weren't shooting like late night or anything like that
when the sun went down we were done like it just trying to be nice to the neighbors that were like
a mile away you know yeah i'm trying not to be a dick to my hoa right now and be nice all my
neighbors are really cool and like they already get it but like right now it's like duking out
with the hoa because in order to do like asphalt my driveway put a gate in build two houses in the
back build like a gym on the side that can fit like my cars and stuff like that it's like oh
you have to submit all this paperwork and it has to be approved via hoa before you do that or they
can find it and i'm like listen guys i hope the paperwork goes by fast because you i i just don't
just hope they're not like aggressive with it because like i'll be an absolute piece of shit
and you guys could get a whole new series of me just duking it out with the hoa because i was like
they're like well you better be careful because and i'm calling them on the phone like hey where
do i submit the documents because i believe i have to submit paperwork for my asphalt driveway
because that's the first thing i'm gonna do for like this big roundabout and they're like oh yeah
you need to fill out that paperwork and i'm like or you're gonna get fined and i'm like bitch i'll
pay that shit and do whatever the fuck i want like so we're gonna see how it turns out
turns out could be very fun you always want to play nice at first right you want to try to like
that's why i'm like i'm gonna i put in all the paperwork i did all of it it's just there's no
possible fucking way i just paid for my home i have this land i'm totally off of the road in my
own area and you're gonna tell me i can't build shit in my backyard quietly and silently and put

so i'm trying to talk to him and get permission to make the video about him
not for him to die yeah can you die dude no dude just yourself waiting outside his house with an
air horn first thing in the morning
people into
jesus nick no dude's a badass i just want to tell the story it's dope who is it uh ed eaton
probably like the coolest sniper that nobody's ever heard of so he was in vietnam
and his chopper went down and he was like the only dude still not severely wounded from this
chopper crashes he was a sniper his sniper rifle got like broken and the scope was all fucked up
and it's at nighttime and he had a starlight scope which is like an early it's kind of like
an egg
cog like it uses light to illuminate so it's kind of early vision technology and he had the scope on
a sniper rifle so he climbs up on top of this like burning helicopter as they're getting attacked by
an entire platoon of nva and he's alternating between his sniper rifle he figured out the
kentucky windage of how fucked up his scope was on the fly so he's doming dudes with a sniper
rifle and swapping out and mag dumping with an m16 trying to convince him that there's more than
one guy up there fights for like two hours and he's like oh my god i'm gonna die i'm gonna die
hours till they back him out that's horny they get everybody loaded up on the plane and one dude
is injured and the guy's like i'm not gonna make it just leave me and he like grabs a grenade and
pulls a pin he's just gonna hold it until they come to get him he's gonna blow himself up and
as the helicopter is taken off ed eaton jumps back out of the helicopter and defends that dude till
the next helicopter shows up by himself holy fuck massive dick bro did he make him get rid of the
grenade i'd be like yeah yeah he's like no dude's dude's bleeding out like grip starts relaxing
he was like oh shit so the dude the dude back there buddy the dude makes it and there's like
an interview where they're interviewing both of them like here in both sides of the story from ed
and then the guy that he saved and the guy that he saved is like ed told me he was gonna save the
last two bullets for us
so he put the grenade back away because like they weren't gonna get caught by the nva but he ended up
fighting off everybody by himself and saving the dude jesus so yeah have you ever done a video
before on somebody who is still alive no no shit nope not that i'm aware of even fat files uh fat
files like i'll cover ceos and stuff but like telling the story of a ceo versus telling like
a war story like i just i don't know if they're still alive like that's their story to tell so
i'm not going to tell it without their permission that one would be a dope one
but uh which you just did for the record yeah but i mean like you can fuck you nick that's the
cliff notes from like they've already done a history channel um like greatest sniper shots
he was in that like that's all just from that that's nothing from like his book that he wrote
which is called uh mekong mud dogs um so i'm trying to get him to work with me and he's like
well you know i don't know if i have anything new to add to it we covered it in a book and i was on
history channel and i was like i get that and like the book's great the history channel episode's
great but the history channel thing was 15 years ago the book it hasn't been printed in 15 years
like it's not about uncovering anything new it's like i want to expose this story to the next
generation re-release
more people will see it on your channel than they will ever see it on
history.
Exactly.
And it's like,
you know what I mean?
Like all these 20 year old kids,
like what are the odds are going to run into your book,
pick it up and read it.
And the way you're going to relay and portray this story and like,
give it to the viewer.
Yeah.
Give it life in that make the fat electrician.
And I'll push the book after the fact.
And then,
you know,
hopefully you get more book sales.
I hope you're still making money from that.
And so he said,
were you like,
bro,
when you're dead,
I'm doing it.
No,
if he tells me,
is it if he tells you what I said,
if he tells me he doesn't want me to do it,
I'll just never do the video.
So hopefully you're just like wearing down the timer on that one.
No,
but it is kind of cool.
Like a lot of videos,
like probably 50% or more of the videos I do when I cover a war hero,
every like 50% of the time,
there's a comment in there that was like,
this was my uncle.
This was my dad.
This was so-and-so.
I see a lot of those.
Like,
and those are super cool.
Like,
uh,
I think Roy Bennett,
Vita's his daughter commented on my word video.
Like that's cool.
So it's,
I've seen that a little bit in your comment sections.
Yeah.
It always,
they always wind up at the top.
Yeah.
Cause people,
so many people like them.
So that's pretty cool to see.
It's fucking wild to see and probably experience on your side.
You're like,
Oh,
that's stuff that reached that.
I'm just happy to like it so far.
I have avoided anybody being upset at me.
Cause then I'm going to feel bad.
Like I shit.
Hey,
you didn't do a good job on that one.
Apparently.
no,
you've,
I don't think you've ever,
like,
obviously you've never portrayed anything,
like a bad light.
So I don't even see how that could come across and listen.
But he's like,
for some reason,
way,
shape or form,
like money hungry.
And they're like,
Oh,
you did this.
And that's like my great,
great,
great,
great,
great granddaddy,
uncle,
baby mama.
I want a bill or two,
like fuck off.
But I mean,
most of,
most of the guys I cover,
they've already had books about them.
They've had history channel specials about them.
They've had all this different stuff.
So I think,
I think Cody's experienced that a couple of times where people are like,
Hey,
I was in that video.
You released,
give me money.
Yeah.
That's the same.
That happens every single video on my YouTube.
And mine's just compilation shit.
Like,
so am I going to get paid since like you did that?
And I'm like,
bro,
what?
We keep your handle and shit in there.
Like it's a promo for you.
If you want,
like,
no,
just send them back the definition of fair use.
No,
exactly.
And I'm like,
that's all my content is dude.
And like,
I don't have any paywalls.
I'm not even making like crazy buko bucks from it.
Like,
I'm just like,
it's here for like,
for free for people who want to watch,
my shit.
I had a guy go schizo,
schizo on me one time for,
it was like a Darwin awards clip.
It was like a dude just like,
you know,
uh,
doing the,
the 18,
was it the model 1887?
Like the,
the,
the loop thing,
like the Terminator two.
Oh yeah.
Like doing the reload like that.
And it was a meme.
It wasn't even his original video.
It was,
I had no idea who the guy was,
but he had,
uh,
somebody made a meme of it where like,
as the guns flipping back around toward the camera,
if for a minute,
Kurt Cobain pops up and it goes,
I'm like,
it just,
it's a great meme.
And the guy's like,
how dare you fucking say what I was doing was unsafe.
I was a blah,
blah.
And just like schizo ranted and like kept commenting and like
commented on other people's stuff.
Like this guy's a piece of shit.
He did whatever.
I'm like,
bro,
fuck off.
Who people get crazy.
It's a joke.
Like that wasn't even one where I'm like,
Oh,
Darwin award.
Like what a retard.
I was just like,
yeah,
this is,
I think it was just like a throwaway clip.
It's funny.
And it wasn't even his content.
It was,
it was transformative because it was a meme somebody else made.
Some people just don't get it.
I just literally don't understand.
I'm like,
why are you like,
I'm like,
you know,
you put this out there already,
right?
Like,
you know,
this shit exists.
Like you uploaded this for the world for eternity and all of
life as you are living.
And when you are dead,
it will still be here.
Why?
What?
Get up,
get the fuck out of here.
Like,
just stop.
Why are you mad dog?
Yeah.
Let's just kiss.
Dude.
I would be,
we,
did we talk about like with the Shrek stuff?
That'd be the heart.
The most scary thing is you do a video and the second you hit
publish,
then something comes up.
I don't cover people alive.
Yes,
exactly.
Oh,
I see.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's one of those things where it's like,
okay,
cool.
I released this video.
You know who got caught with that?
Popo.
Dude,
Popo,
we love you.
Popo Medic did a video on Shrek like six days before all
the stuff came out or like the controversy about it.
Do you want to,
do you want to address that a little bit?
So people don't think you're talking about the dream works
animated film.
Yeah.
So I have not looked,
I don't know if the,
the allegations are true or not.
I haven't looked into it.
I have no idea out of my pay grade on that.
Not a green beret.
Don't understand all the protocols.
Basically there's a John Shrek McPhee nicknamed the sheriff
of Baghdad.
He was in Delta force known for doing all these crazy
missions.
He's been on Joe Rogan.
He's been,
he's done the whole podcast tour.
He's got a ton of viral clips out there,
been interviewed a ton and was becoming like pretty big
online military celebrity.
And then Popo Medic did a video on him and his exploits.
And then,
and then like six days later,
there was a bunch of allegations that came out.
I have no idea if they're true or not.
Haven't looked into them,
but there was just like,
like stolen Valor ask Popo Medic.
I don't think it was.
I don't,
I don't know what it is.
I haven't heard what it is.
I'm curious because I just see some like,
Oh,
paperwork doesn't lie.
And I'm like,
I talked about on say how to Eli,
how,
when I transitioned from the active army to the reservist
component,
cause I still have my ERB versus my SRB.
I'm like,
paperwork do lie sometimes,
but I'm not even gonna lie to you.
But like what?
I don't know what,
like,
but that's like my new shit.
And I'm like,
well,
what do you mean?
Like what happened?
According to what I heard,
I don't know if it's true.
He got his special forces tab revoked for doing something wrong
and was kicked out of special forces and then retired as a
regular master Sergeant.
Yes.
And that was covered in there,
but he was a Delta force guy for years.
Yeah.
I could give a class at that point.
If I'm,
if I was to be transferred,
I'm like,
bro,
he did cool guy shit.
I'll never do cool guy shit like that.
Good for you.
And the thing is,
like,
I mean,
those Delta dudes are just such high caliber individuals and
people think like they drink and do all this crazy shit.
And so like they're like,
act accordingly.
Are you just like,
you're gone?
Like not,
not killed,
but like,
you're not going to stay here.
Like the big representation.
So I don't know,
let alone what those dudes go through.
If you got kicked out,
like,
I can't imagine what you've already been through.
So to me,
I'm like,
if you are even an individual who's able to live in that
lifestyle,
which I could never do good on you.
And if you fuck that man,
eat it,
move on.
But yeah,
but no,
I mean,
my perspective was just like the,
the suck factor for Popo medic who like just did a video on
the guy that he thought was awesome.
And then like by happenstance,
six days later,
all these allegations come out,
whether they're true or not.
And he's just getting lit up in his own comment section over,
over it.
So like he just kind of got screwed out of the gate.
Cause he didn't really do anything wrong.
Yeah.
He didn't do anything wrong.
He just operated on the information he was told that was out
there.
And then instantly like reality check.
You're like,
Oh man,
all the timing.
And especially,
how dare you do this?
Their dividends of the timing would just suck.
Dick.
You're like,
really six days after my video goes up in the shitty part for
him.
He only uploads once a month.
Yeah.
So it's like,
it's just sitting in his algorithm as his newest video for 30
days.
Like Nick is not talking shit by the way.
Please don't kill him.
Yeah.
That's thank you.
We are just relaying information.
Thank you.
Yeah.
No,
that would suck.
But that's why I was like,
okay,
Ed Eaton.
He's like in the seventies history channels done at his books,
done it.
Like it's,
it's been out there long enough.
If he was going to get called out,
it would've got called out.
So I was like,
I'll Nick becomes the reason
I've had people react to my videos before that have like PhDs
in history.
And they're like,
this is wrong.
This is wrong.
I,
I had one dude that wrote an entire book disparaging a medal
of honor recipient that did a three hour react to my video
going through like excruciating detail about how like,
actually there's no evidence of this.
And the,
the re the first time it ever appeared in the historical record
was three years after the fact in a newspaper article,
blah,
blah,
blah,
blah.
I was like,
the has the medal of honor.
The government said this happened.
Like it is a wild thing to say like,
well,
there's no secondary resources to say that this happened to call
out a medal of honor receipt.
Yeah.
The level of detail,
the level of detail they do on the back end,
when they were verifying your recipient,
doesn't know any of that shit's happening.
Just like,
uh,
I think,
I mean,
uh,
Clint.
Yeah.
Clint.
Did he talk about it though?
Yeah.
He,
he talked about the fact,
like he didn't know why he was being brought to DC.
Yeah.
And it was on the walls.
Yeah.
And it was like,
yes,
I was wondering if he talked about it.
He was,
he was talking about the fact that like,
he thought it was like,
oh shit,
they found out about some stuff,
the war crimes,
the war crimes he's being brought to this place in DC,
where they're like giving them a slide show in the medal of honor.
And he's just like,
excuse me,
why the am I here?
They're like,
Oh,
nobody told you his team had been talking for six months,
two years leading up to him receiving it.
He just had no clue.
He thought it was as Brandon said,
he's like,
Oh,
I like any soldiers.
Mine's like,
I'm like,
I like that though.
I like the fact that like,
it's such a like thorough process.
It's not a fucking participation trophy in any way,
shape or form.
It's not a historian getting on there.
It's like,
well actually,
it's always,
and it's happened multiple times with multiple metal of honor recipients,
but they're always like,
and like people that should be reputable,
like historians and shit.
And they're like,
well actually this story was most likely propaganda that the government signed
off on to make the American military or his chain of command did this to make
them look good.
And it's like,
I don't understand the common sense.
Cause it's always like some metal of honor recipient that like shit hit the
fan.
All of his guys were down and he turned into captain America and saved the day.
And it's like from a chain of command perspective in the military,
if you were trying to make yourself look good as a commanding officer that was
offsite,
what do you think makes you look better as a leader of men?
Shit hit the fan and all of your guys follow protocol,
did what they were supposed to do.
to do what you train them to do and it got them through a horrible situation or the terminator
just happened to be there in time and save the motherfucking day for everybody like not only that
but it's like the from from a chain of command perspective like why was shit in the first place
exactly yeah it's like nobody's writing these dudes up because they think it's going to make
them look good that this guy saved the day for their mission that they fucked up yeah like because
there is a key factor in why i mean we can go to even that fight with clint it is the the fishbowl
they decided to make that face yeah yeah and then you had even general george saying hey that's a
terrible zoo take the low ground yeah okay yeah brilliant side yeah i need elevation okay it's
over anakin i'm surrounded on all sides you fool and general george saying hey what the fuck are
we doing here and then the leader of the army is like i don't know what to do with you guys
we doing here and then the leadership from that side being like no we're not changing it this is
great and then that shit falls down like okay okay actually we might have maybe fucked up i think two
medal of honors came from that fight that i don't know i think but again which one are you talking
about uh clint romacher read some too it was him and then that one specialist no yeah the e5 and
then the specialist or the corporal yeah i mean they were calling for five you read about that
entire sequence and you're like holy shit you're like that's it that's what it's about dude you're
just that's called fire and then clint i mean you guys have met clint he's the most unassuming kind
happy dude just a good old boy yeah they always are yeah a hundred percent of the time
yeah when you meet any of them like oh man how you doing you're like dear god
at least at least in my experience like they'll never be the one to tell you
that they're a medal of honor recipient or anything like that like they're just chill dudes like
clint straight up looks like an oil worker yeah because that's what he was doing before yes it's
just like that just a normal unassuming guy super kind super funny well i think that's why
like the aspect of getting the award in the first place is like above yourself for all others and
so from that moment on to carry it even to now you're like oh he just he didn't even give a
fuck about that that piece of metal was like about the team about the boys about the people around
him it's like all i can do is do the best i can for everyone else and that's definitely how he
comes off talking to him yeah even sal sal won't even curse so like oh frick dude it's great meeting
you dang it i'm like bro what you don't curse no why would i like nothing just stacked a lot
these people have kept funeral homes in business like yeah and they're just salted just good as
people fuck oh oh nick how goes uh your training are you you're still not drinking you're fucking
